Is the race relations commissioner biased?

The race relations commissioner Meng Foon has set a dangerous precedent here using his office as a stage for himself and Maori – is it his mandate or job to get involved in the local council?

Andrew Hollis came out and spoke about the Treaty of Waitangi and how he thinks it's past its used-by date.

Andrew Hollis campaigned on this with people voting because of his sentiments and seeing him as speaking on council for them.

It is obvious Foon is abusing his office! There seems to be a lot of that going on in local and national Gov't, the health and especially the education sector.

It depends on what side of the fence you are standing on. The culturally hypnotised or the grievance industry see not having unelected Maori on council as racist, while the majority of the general population see 'having' unelected Maori on council as racist. Is this man an unbiased commissioner for 'all' Kiwis?

The question we should be asking is how a man so blatantly biased toward anything Maori got into this office. What process did he go through to get ‘picked', or, was it a call from the Waitangi Tribunal that assured another minion for Maori?
