    You can't wait to see stuff hidden can you?
    Fact is, the debate is worthwhile and only people with hidden agendas don't want to have the conversation. In this regard you are in the company of a small number of elite and radical people who have lied to the public and got some traction. They dragged you along did they not?

    They are panicking towards a dead end - Winston clearly knew to get
    out, and Luxon is being dragged where he doesn't want to go - it is a
    very good and currently pertinent cartoon, don't you agree, Tony?

    Yes they certainly have. We have an agreement to have a Bill
    introduced to Parliament that is intended to define the principles of
    the Treaty of Waitangi in a modern context. The actual Bill wording
    is not known, the intent is that it will form the basis of a binding referendum. There is no commitment from the largest party in
    Parliament to pass said Bill.

    Yet a small number amongst us oppose a Bill that has not yet been
    introduced based on their assessment of the political party advocating
    the intent to present such a Bill. From this we can logically deduce
    that the opponents of the Bill are so fearful of a rational discourse
    on an unknown entity that they wish to ensure the Bill is never
    introduced. In doing so they concede they will never win an argument
    against an undefined foe. A conclusion that the only way to oppose
    the threat of reform is to remove the threat because rational debate
    is unlikely to go your way.

    ACT is trying to modify a contract through a referendum. That is
    wrong. For the three political parties that considered themselves
    defenders of the rule of law and sanctity of contract, they are
    wasting time and money with an offensive proposal that could well be
    taken by a NActFirst as a license to change all sorts of other
    contracts without compensation or redress.

    That is a lie. They want to have a discussion and ask Ner Zealander's what they would like. Only then can a decision on the future be made.
    Your insufferable deceit gets worse.

    You are afraid, terrified even, of what the thinking folk in this country believe - you don't want to know the truth.

    Well put Tony. We will not know the detail until the government
    introduces the Bill. This has been made clear to Rich several times
    but he persists anyway in opposing something that does not exist in
    detail.

    For the three political parties that considered themselves

    He is not the only one Tony. Those that seek to suppress debate do so
    because they fear they might lose that debate.

    Or because they are afraid they will lose their access to the gravy train. Sorry if that was what you implied. But I believe that potential loss of wealth is the biggest factor here.
