Nation divided after exploitation

John Mills (Letters to Editor January 25) asks why the nation has become divided, because it wasn't in the 1950s and 60s.
In the 1970s some Maori managed to persuade the politicians that a Treaty of Waitangi Act was needed and it was put into a law in 1975 with Jeffrey Palmer's assistance. And a false Treaty.
Regrettably New Zealanders did not take a lot of notice at the time and it is only lately that it has become glaringly obvious that we can blame egocentric politicians of both groups, who have exploited the situation to gain power and prestige for themselves, regardless of the good of the people.
As long as we continue to support these pollutions (an excellent word used by another writer) this problem will never be fixed.

For anyone interested (and we certainly should all be concerned), have a look at Muriel Newman's website (Equality for ALL NZealanders.You'll get the picture of what's happening right this very moment behind closed doors.By the time most people wake up it may be too late.

In 1975 treaty of Waitangi Act and it's amendment are the biggest injustices ever created by any Government on it's people as it allows one group of New Zealand Citizens the privilege of a taxpayer funded aparteid tribunal to claim against their fellow New Zealand Citizens using Principles and a partnership dreamt up by ministers and bureaucracts using false information and a false Treaty document. The five Principles wrote the majority of New Zealanders out of the Treaty. Ian Brougham Wanganui
