This should be topical for a little while. ACT already have a candidate in place, already campaigning, and even have a campaign bus (in true frugal ACT form, its really a large van). National, who's safe seat it is, are too chicken to announce a candidate. I haven't heard what Labour are doing yet, but check this twaddlebollocks out from Te Pati Maori... Two things spring to mind on this: A) if all we need to do to get rid of these race based parties is to do a leaflet drop (probably asking about 'one person, one vote') and make some comments on social media (maybe challenging the hereditary right to power), bring it on! B) The reality of the situation is that Te Pati Maori would stand zero chance of winning Tauranga, and more to the point, their presence may risk splitting the vote from Labour, so they have decided to strategically withdraw. Instead of just saying that, they spout this twaddlebollocks about safety and race. I would think most people would see straight through this in seconds, but I've had a look at Willie Jackson's FB page, and most of his followers would believe this and be lapping it up. There was one comment that the media are lying, the Labour Govt is doing great, there are no problems with the economy, oh and something about the US Alt Right in NZ... Te PΔti MΔori says it will not stand a candidate in the upcoming Tauranga by-election because of the threat from white supremacists. "Residents have been subjected to white supremacist leaflet drops, and even our co-leaders have been the recipient of threats and hate speech by Tauranga residents," Wilson said in a statement.
He said an Internal Affairs report last month confirmed that Tauranga was a hot spot for white supremacists on social media.www.rnz.co.nz/news/political/467012/te-pati-maori-says-it-will-not-stand-a-candidate-in-tauranga-by-election

He wasn't announced when ACT named their candidate. Certainly has strong credentials.

What a pathetic excuse.
They need to stop being pussies, HTFU and stop spouting crap that will be doing them more harm than good.
Actually I wouldn't mind if they stopped the hate speech they aim at me near daily. Not a biggie for me though as I'm not a racist policy pushing pussy who got into power only because of a racist system screwed very much in my favour.

Pathetic is an understatement...
The Cuzzie/thicko party are just trying to grab free advertising. ... While being racist fuckwits!
If they thought beyond thier over inflated egos they would see that the last 20+ years the electorate gas voted for a Maori.
They are just morons

The timing of this story simply can't be a coincidence. It is like red-meat to the 'white supremacists'... The Leader of Te Pati Maori Che Wilson, the same guy who said they wont run in Tuaranga cause they are scared of white supremacists, says he can predict volcanic eruptions by looking at the colour of the sunset. Every time there is an eruption, they sing a song about it, and pass the songs down the generations. Even though he lives in Hamilton as is a long way from Ruepehu. Now, don't mis-understand me. I don't want to be questioning Maori knowledge and traditions. But a story that 'out there' and 'woo-woo', the same day as he calls out White Supremacists all over Tauranga - that can't be a coincidence... www.stuff.co.nz/pou-tiaki/128634859/traditional-mori-knowledge-set-to-play-part-in-picking-mt-ruapehus-next-eruption

So I would question how reliable this "tradition" is, along with alot of claims of seemingly super natural in sight

When does a whitey get a turn I think this is evidence of a deeper problem, especially within Maoridom. There is a growing perception that to 'be' Maori (esp in Politics) you need to have scribbles on your face, an un-pronounceable name, and preferably a criminal record. I.e. you need to overtly 'be' Maori. Then contrast that with Simon Bridges, Winston Peters and David Seymour (to name a few) all being Maori, but don't really look or act Maori (they aren't overtly Maori) It got me to thinking about my friends and acquaintances. A fair few have Maori heritage. But they are all intelligent, successful and generally hardworking people. We don't classify people by their heritage, so its never occurred to me before.

This highlights the biggest problem (equal to the bimbo) facing NZ. That is media,radio,tv ,newsprint,social media, headlining sound bites of anything racial or left leaning without researching facts or providing balance. If someone, other than someone who is knowledgable about the subject ,can create controversy and trouble then it gets headlined ad nauseam. And the punters seem to soak it up ? Less is more
