Take 5 minutes to listen to Rodney rarking up ACT's proposed referendum. And share it far and wide. He is right on the button.
Listen here
(For clarification, this is ACT's proposal:
ACT would bring a Treaty Principles Act to Parliament.
The Act would be short but decisive. It would define the Principles of the Treaty as:
- All citizens of New Zealand have the same political rights and duties
- All political authority comes from the people by democratic means including universal suffrage, regular and free elections with a secret ballot
- New Zealand is a multi-ethnic liberal democracy where discrimination based on ethnicity is illegal
After debate and passage by Parliament, New Zealanders would then have the final say via referendum.)
