Treaty Principles Debate: Have a Listen


I don't recommend many podcast episodes here at NOT PC, but here's one I reckon you should put aside some time for: it's the Working Group's latest podcast, featuring an hour-long debate over his Treaty Proinciples Bill between ACT's David Seymour, and Ngāti Toa's Helmut Modlik.

Hosted by commy bigmouth Martyn Bradbury and libertarian liquidator Damien Grant, it's worth a listen not least because the participants speak with candour, in good faith , and with humour — and (for the most part) are listening to each other. And how many political debates can you say that about today, especially this one!

It is very simple. To the extent the Treaty / Tiriti is interpreted as upholding individual rights, it is legitimate. To the extent it is interpreted as upholding collective "rights" it is illegitimate. Authentic rights are held by and may only be exercised by individuals, including in a collective context.
