"Their criticism is not surprising, in fact it's expected because the Treaty Principles Bill by defining the principles does the job that they've been supposed to do for the last 48 years, so it's not surprising that they resent that job being done by Parliament.

Parliament asked them to do it in 1975, and Parliament has the right to say 'Well, if you haven't done a very good job we're going to do it for you'."

Clearly the Waitangi Tribunal was supposed to rubber stamp the assimilationist view expression in the English translation, of the original Te Tiriti o Waitangi document written and signed in Te Reo Māori. They weren't supposed to uphold the agreements defined in the original. They've been doing it wrong.

Fortunately, it's up to Political Technician Second-Class Rimmer to fix it for them. After all, he's got whakapapa Māori, so he can't be racist, right?
