Thank you, Sean and David for raising this issue. Particularly trenchant points raised were that the framework does nothing to actually address racism (“red rag to a bull, in fact”), and that it is so backwards-looking (David’s point).

David’s proposal for a simpler Letter of Expectation to the Broadcasting Ministry sounds excellent: basically ‘give a voice to all’. I note with satisfaction that The Platform wouldn’t have to change anything to comply with that - not that it’d ever be interested in government money!

Thank you for the exposure. Please keep up the good work. The consequences of this rubbish are likely to be horrendous for our society. We will all be losers apart from the few elite who are making millions and will probably leave the country when the real problems start. It won't be good.

A racist document - there is no other description for it......

Piece by piece the grab will continue......when are the so called politicians, academics and elites going to wake up from their completely demented idealistic thinking, that this type of future they perceive for NZ, is NOT going to create chaos, to the point of an uprising.....this will not end well.....

Keep up the exposure David......we need to know WHAT IS REALLY GOING ON.....

Re: this earlier comment from barriergold below:

"Now we are truly finding out what nationhood really means, and that may even mean drawing blood, we have lived in fantasy land for to long, New Zealand is up for grabs, the question is who has the biggest balls to hold onto it, are any of you prepared to put yourselves on the line to save our nation as we knew it?"


This gets to the heart of the bigger issue, which is that to the extent that there are mutually exclusive conflicting group interests in a society, this conflict will snowball if it is not recognised and addressed for what it is by sober and pragmatic minds, and it will eventually…

These instructions to media covering the treatment of the Treaty, also potentially spill over into the election process.

For example, do you think that media providing a platform for say, David Seymour's election campaign are compliant with this government's approach to the Treaty? Wouldn't inclusion of ACT campaign material tend to undermine their ability to get NZ on Air funding later on? Perfectly deniable of course, but we all know how these things work.

See where I'm going here? They could use this to put a thumb on the scale of the election process. (Rather like the Democrats got Biden elected by using state agencies such as the FBI to censor social media.)

As the MSM has already prostituted itself to the Labour coalition, it would be surprising if they were not enthusiastic participants in an opposition smear campaign.
