Michael Laws reveals the extent to which racial discrimination is being applied to decide admittance to the medical school at Otago University. Another eye-opener. (Meanwhile, in the United States, universities are abandoning race-based practices, as required by the Supreme Court.)

Michael Laws is a former MP and Mayor and is now deputy chairman of the Otago Regional Council. He has hosted both radio and TV shows for Radio Pacific, Radio Live and SKY Television. He is an award-winning writer – and has published three bestselling books. He is also a former Otago University student.
Stop the cheating and quotas. I have met intelligent, capable Maori adults and children. People usually think the Maori got his or her top job only because of cheating and DEI quotas.
On a previous someone replied to a comment I made & asked me the following question;
"However assuming your brain and health is up to it and motivation remains well stoked, please could you come up with an action faction plan those reading these posts can join?"
As my reply was quite comprehensive I thought it best to past it here in this main thread.
Old sure, but not senile or lacking in patriotic passion. In the past I've exercised my right to resist & protest alongside like-minded others & also totally on my own. Obviously large groupings are much for more effective to get the message across, but individual disruptive action can also be effective.
As you've asked nicely…
I was a member of the Auckland medical faculty 53 y ago. We resolved to save some small number of places for Maoris. The one that I can recall made her career in Australia - but for all I know, concentrating on the large number of Maoris in that country.
There was negligible opposition to the affirmative action; it seemed a universal opinion that Maoris deserved lower admission standards. It was affirmed that, once in, they would NOT get lower passing standards.
I now think it was a group blunder by vaguely 'guilty' whites. I admit I was one.
Given the governments campaign to remove Maorification from NZ and our current cost of living crisis...I cannot see why defunding our universities is not on the table. Can we afford to support these racists gatekeepers at Otago?
It's incredibly hard for me to write what I'm about to write.... But be that as it may I shall say it.
I earned my qualifications by dint of hard work, through the polytechnic, and the highest qualification I have is NZCE level five, which demanded a knowledge of practical experience to be able to qualify for. Without going to university, I have both the practical experience and the knowledge that far surpasses most degrees available in electrical engineering.
The application of my practical experience,coupled with real life learnings also enabled me to be accepted into a course of writing machine code, which in the late 1990s was an unknown entity back then.
I am definitely not saying university education…
