It would seem that John Key and the Minister of Epsom John Banks, have a wee problem, the pakeha is a push over when they have a problem, but the Maori people are a real pain with their demands, they stick together like glue to solve issues. One of the very first acts that John K did, when he took office was to reintroduce the British Honours List, I wonder why? and this came at a time when the country was in big trouble. Most of the holders bar one I believe, discarded their New Zealand Honours to the trash can, in favour of the British system, now there is a contradiction in terms if there ever was one, and not very loyal to NZ, and our All Blacks. But we digress when the Maori People have a problem they stand up for their rights, apart from the ones in the National Govt, who would never work with National. I suppose it is difficult for John and John to understand that greed is not healthy, most people strive for fair play and a chance to earn a decent living. No MP can show me, how a person can have a life, buy a house, raise a family on $13-00 an hour. Someone has to empty the trash and if we do not think that is important, wait till it starts to stink. The result poverty, crime, more prisons, and they are not cheap, so in the end the wealthy will pay dearly.Still all is not lost when John and John consummated their marriage, along came Winston, such joy to behold.
