We have a number of live speaking engagements coming up.

One of those is in Tauranga.

The Bay of Plenty Times Newspaper knows well about this engagement, so they did a story on it.

As a team, Stop Co-Governance has been wanting to write about the media, from a psychology point of view, to show how they want to shut down our tour, and the tactics they use  

Now is the time to write.

Essentially, there is a psychological war going on between the supporters of stop co-governance, all of them nationally, and the media in New Zealand.  

In today’s blog, we analyse the story written in the Bay of Plenty Times and pull the covers off the psychology of what they are doing.

And what is written in today’s blog is not just about the Bay of Plenty Times story only.

It applies to all media reports of our tour.

As in any warfare situation, if we understand our enemy, we can out manouver them.

You can read our analysis HERE

You can read the reaction of one of our supporters HERE

Stephen Biko was a South African anti-apartheid activist. Ideologically an African nationalist and African socialist, he was at the forefront of a grassroots anti-apartheid campaign known as the Black Consciousness Movement during the late 1960s and 1970s.

What’s ironic is the New Zealand used to be the greatest opponent of Apartheid in the 1970s and 80s.

Now we are the greatest proponent.

This is a terribly sad fact many Kiwis are waking up to. It’s called “The Great New Zealand Apartheid Reversal”.

You can hear what Steve would have said HERE

Yesterday, one of our supporters sent me an interesting and relevant email about how chiefs in Kaipara rallied together to oppose other chiefs who were rebelling against the Queen.  

How does this relate to what is happening today in New Zealand?

Today.  Elite Maori are banding together to rebel against the government to take over the country by stealth.

What the chiefs say about having ceded sovereignty to the Queen is telling.

Today activists and MPs are telling us, in 2023, 183 years after the event, that they know more than the chiefs who signed the Treaty in 1840.

Clearly, then don’t know.  I am forced to be blunt here.  Anyone today who maintains that the chiefs did not cede sovereignty to the Queen is simply lying. There is no other word for it. 

You can read the email HERE

At Ngapuhi elder sent me an email about this issue. 

He was horrified.

Now read the link to the article HERE

A USA based blogger is following us. Apparently he is well known and has a large following.  Do you own investigation.

You can read the email HERE

What he said was really a great encouragement to our team! Thank you 13 stars! And thank you Steve for giving us the post!

Steve, you are a good example of how posting on other posts can help our cause. Well done you!  

I sometimes receive hate mail. Mostly encouraging mail, and support, but sometimes hate mail.

 Occasionally this hate mail is funny. 

You can read one such email HERE

Actually, what came out of this email was significant.  When you read the string, you’ll soon see why.  

Seeking to better understand our political situation with respect to co-governance in 2023, I have been reading a hugely important book about the Kohimarama conference in 1860 where over two hundred Maori chiefs gathered.  

What struck me was that the Maori rebellion in the 1800s, wanting a King, in competition with the Queen, is exactly what is happening today in 2023.  

History is repeating itself.  

Read the following and see if you don’t come to the same conclusion. 

The following is a direct quote from Dr John Robinson’s book on this subject

“At this conference, they unanimously affirmed their commitment to the Queen as their sovereign ruler, and  reaffirmed the fact that they had ceded sovereignty to the Queen.

Governor Browne invited chiefs to attend mainly to gain their support over the war in Taranaki and against the king movement in Waikato.

This was a sensible and necessary step to assure the security of the nation, an act which would have been taken by any government given the circumstances.

That aim, to understand together the reasons for war, and to seek the co-operation of the chiefs with the Government, was made clear by Governor Browne in his opening address at Kohimarama.

“The minds of both Races have lately been agitated by false reports or exaggerated statements; and, in order to restore confidence, it is necessary that each should know and thoroughly understand what the other wishes and intends.

There is also a subject to which I desire to invite your special attention, and in reference to which I wish to receive the expression of your views.

For some time past certain persons belonging to the tribes dwelling to the south of Auckland have been endeavouring to mature a project, which, if carried into effect, could only bring evil upon the heads of all concerned in it.

The framers of it are said to desire that the Maori tribes in New Zealand should combine together and throw off their allegiance to the sovereign whose protection they have enjoyed for more than twenty years, and that they should set up a Maori King and declare themselves to be an independent Nation.

Such ideas could only be entertained by men completely ignorant of the evils they would bring upon the whole Native Race if carried into effect.”

(From Dr John Robinson’s book “The Kohimarama Conference 1860: chiefs support Christianity and the Queen” page 25.  The book is published by Tross.) 

———————————————

The bottom line is that elite Maori today, tribal representatives, tribal companies, are staging a rebellion, exactly like the rebellion of certain tribes in the 1800s, against the government of the day. 

Look carefully at the wording of governor Grey’s speech “…endeavouring to mature a project…”.

“The Project” today is called Co-Governance. 

The maturation of ‘the project’ in the 1800s would have disastrous consequences for all New Zealanders back then, just as co-governance will have disastrous consequences for all Kiwis in 2023 and beyond. 

As my book clearly states, the plan of elite Maori is to have complete control of New Zealand by 2040.

One of our great supporters wrote a fabulous letter to the local Orewa newspaper Hibiscus Matters, only to have it rejected.  You can read the letter here  HERE

You can read the email string with the editor of Hibiscus Coast HERE

Over the past few days, I have been communicating with the Northern Advocate, wanting to put an advert in their paper. 

Astoundingly, they have rejected it.  Wait until you read the reason! 

You can read the email string  HERE

This is the clearest example of the suppression of free speech you’ll ever see. 

The Advocate is deciding what the public should see and know, making decisions on their behalf.

Welcome to co-governance.

They are definitely NOT cancelled!!!!! 

You can view the brochure HERE

Really, it’s packed with outright lies, half truths, and twisted facts.

For a start, It’s obvious the protestors don’t know, at all, what a racist is. 

As the saying goes ‘all advertising is good advertising!’

Thank you protesters!

Keep it coming.

If you want to know where to get thousands of these printed cheaply, just email me: Julian@stopcogov.kiwi

Kiwis need some humour right now, and your brochure would definitely hit the spot.  

We also needed a push in our marketing and you have provided it, right on time!

 A big thank you!

Please look at the picture above. We are wanting to get this into every newpaper / local rag in the country

How so?

We are asking you, the people of New Zealand to take 7 simple steps.

One: Identify your local rag / paper.

Two: Communicate with them. Find out the cost of placing a large advert in their paper.
Three: : Prices will vary according to the size. Go as big as you can afford. Band together with other to help pay for it.
Four: The advert must be full colour so as to preserve the colour qualities of the Iceberg, words, etc.
Five: Email Julian@stopcogov.kiwi and he will email the high resolution graphic / advert to you.
Six: The graphic will be ‘print ready’ so all you have to do is email it to the paper and they will do the rest.
Seven: You then pay for the cost of the advert.
Job done.

So far, we have two kind / generous supporters / people have taken action: 

Taupo Times

Franklin Breeze

Totally amazing! Thank you!  You are being part of the solution to stop co-governance.

You can view a list of all the papers in New Zealand and their circulation numbers.  This way you can choose the paper to get the biggest bang for your buck.  

For example, say you chose to advertise in a paper with a circulation of 100,000.  This is equivalent to delivering 100,000 flyers with absolutely no labour involved.  

Think about that.  Powerful. 

View the list of papers HERE

We are asking you to deliver flyers into your suburb / town / city / rural area.

We supply the flyers.

Just let us know how many you want.

The flyers will be double sided and DLE in size.  DLE is bank envelope size.

On one side will be the Iceberge graphic and wording.

On the other will be QR codes and a summary of what’s wrong with co-governance and why it must be stopped.

They will be high quality, and look fabulous, so you will be proud to give them out. 

To order, just email julian@stopcogov.kiwi

Click HERE to view the amazing flyers! 

The location is Sandringham, Central Auckland.

Shooters Bar, 330 New North Road Kingsland.

Wednesday 19th April

It’s 7pm so mark in your dairies and invite everyone everywhere! 

All people will be filtered at the door, with the police backing up our choices of people who we reject.  Also, if protestors do happen to get in, they will be ejected by police if they get inside. We are so looking forward to a great night! 

I am noticing more and more Maori coming on board. They are starting to see, in numbers, that co-governance is going to screw them over. It’s not the lollie scramble they thought it was.

Here is one email I received yesterday.

—————————–

“Hi Team,

Just like most company directors I regularly check my emails which is more often than not, a chore.

Now days I have new enthusiasm to check my emails because I can’t wait to see what you guys have been up to next.

I skip through and get rid of the rubbish and hunt for STOP CO GOVERNANCE.

Always very interesting reading, thank you.

I am one of many white Kiwi Maoris, able to vote on the Maori roll (but I won’t be), registered in the Maori Land Court as a shareholder with 7 different blocks of land with a very proud Maori history going back to my great, great, great Grand Father Te Rangituataka Reihana Takerei, DOB 1830.

My family and friends are so grateful for what you are doing to save us all from a bunch of cunning, deceitful, dishonest, rascal, radicals.

With that in mind, I have just about run out of my size 4 NZ Post bag sent  last week with Julian’s books so I will deposit $100. and request another to the same delivery please.

See you in Tauranga.

Kindest of wishes to you all,”

(the photo is not the Maori man who sent this email. It’s a stock photo)

I did not know this. Someone sent me this video. Take a look and make up your own mind HERE

You can read John’s piece HERE

As usual, he is brilliant in his analysis.

Thank you!!

If you can help deliver these, please email Julian@stopcogov.kiwi

The photo is not of the Hamilton businessman.  It’s stock photo

A few days ago, we  released this picture of an Iceberg, along with the text.  A businessman in Taupo, Phil, was so taken by it, and by what it was communicating, that he offered to pay for a large advert in his local paper, showing this picture.  

I have to say, this picture illustrate absolutely perfectly what is wrong with ‘co=governance’.  

The way co-governance is portrayed by our Government, and by Maori elite, is deliberately and astonishingly deceitful and untruthful.  But then again, what more can we expect from those leading a coup? Julian’s book unmasked just some of this deceit and fraud.  You can read it on line HERE

Read Graham Adam’s piece on the absolute deceitfulness of the 3 Waters Legislation HERE

Seriously, the evidence of trickery and deceit is literally everywhere.

Like I said in my blog yesterday, it was what was underneath the water line that sunk the Titanic.  It’s what’s underneath the co-governance water line that is going to sink New Zealand.  

This is what Phil wrote wrote to me
——————————————-
“Julian, Do you never sleep? I must admit all this nonsense is keeping me awake, mainly thinking off the best ways to quickly get your message out to the masses.

Yes I did read about the Tauranga Event – all hardly unsurprising when you understand that lots of Councils are extreme left, woke and subservient to LGNZ!
The Graphic is exactly what I was thinking.

Are you happy with this message being put out nationwide?

I think it is important to be consistent and have a graphic that gets attention and directs people to your website.

The conditions and requirements for advertising on Stuff are a bit too technical for me to understand – so if you can get it accepted and into the Taupo Times go for it and I will pay, as previously mentioned.

The Taupo Times is delivered all around the Lake and comes out on a Friday and I think adverts have to be submitted one week prior.
Cheers
Phil”
—————————————–

What I am wanting from supporters?

I want a supporter in each area of New Zealand to do the same. To follow Phil’s example.

We provide the graphic. You pay for it in your local paper. Even if it’s a community paper, just do it!

We are also going to print flyers of this graphic, which can be delivered to letter boxes all over the country.

Well done Phil, you are a legend for sparking a whole new initiative to help get the word out.

Below is another design. Which do you like best?

Orewa councillor Jake Laws was at our Orewa event. He supports the protestors who suppressed our right to free speech and trashed our meeting.  Shame on him.

Not only that, but he is completely history ignorant. A double shame.

In a radio interview, he maintains that Maori chiefs did not cede sovereignty at Waitangi of February 6th 1840. Oh really?

That they did cede sovereignty is one of the great facts of the Treaty that can never be denied.

My book details why.  You can read my book HERE

It also details what the Treaty Twisters have done to deny this fact, and Jake Laws is one of them.

Press Release for Hibiscus Matters @ 9/4/23

Full Apology & Compensation Required to Demonstrate Sincerity and Change of Heart

“New Zealanders shouldn’t let themselves be manipulated by the very people who totally disrespected them and their rights to free speech”.

So says Julian Batchelor to residents and ratepayers about the protestors who disrupted a public Stop Co-Governance meeting at the Orewa Community Centre on 18th March. 

“Many of the same protestors who rudely prevented Hibiscus Coast residents from hearing concerns about co-governance are now inviting people to the Silverdale marae where they can apparently ‘learn about, ask about and discuss how co-governance will look at a national and local scale’. 

“Whether they and their unnamed panelists would know enough about this constitutional issue is one thing, but their hypocrisy is staggering,” claims Mr Batchelor. 

“They’re demanding respectful behaviour on the marae, whereas they aggressively trampled on our rights to free speech and the freedom to impart and received information, while filming and intimidating those who came to hear what I had to say in a community venue.

They showed the public no respect at all, ensuring the time and money invested in that meeting was totally wasted. 

“The protestors could have protested outside the Orewa Community Centre, but should have behaved respectfully, appallingly,  inside the actual hall. 

Clearly, their noisy, bullying behaviour infringed the public’s rights.

“Before locals can have confidence in a mature and sensible discussion and debate about this vitally important constitutional issue, the protest organisers from the Silverdale Marae and other local tribal groups must publicly apologise for their appalling behaviour and compensate the Stop Co-governance organisation for the cost of putting on that event. 

“Without such an apology and compensation, how can anyone believe that they are sincere?

That the protestors have genuinely changed and will now suddenly allow a free and open discussion? 

Or is this Marae offer simply grandstanding, manipulation, control, and virture signalling?

Let’s wait and see. The jury is out.”

It’s out.

Graham Adams has just written a brilliant piece on the deceit, lies, and absolute treachery of 3 Waters, but most Kiwis are just not getting it. So read what Graham wrote first before you read what I have written about what Graham wrote.

You can read Graham’s piece HERE

If you don’t have time to read all Graham wrote, the guts of what he is saying is that the 3 Waters legislation has been drafted in a very cunning and deceitful way .  It hides the truth.  What truth? It gives Maori complete control of all water in New Zealand.  They will be able to charge what they like, do what they like, and they cannot be challenged.  The rest of us will be powerless.

I was thinking about this, about what Graham wrote, and about New Zealand, about the government, about all the propaganda, about the Maorification of New Zealand, about the forcing of Te Reo, about the un-mandated name change from New Zealand to Aotearoa,  about children being brainwashed at school, about the tying up of the media, the $55m Public Interest Journalism Fund, about the racial division, about all the lies and deceit coming from the drivers and architects of co-governance, about the suppression of free speech, and the thugs and bullies behind the suppression of free speech (i.e. the protesters) and how anarchy has been allowed to reign with respect to free speech, the powerlessness of kiwis to defend the right to free speech, about the rise of apartheid and separatism, about the Treaty of Waitangi fraud and corruption, about the billions of tax payer dollars ill gotten,  gifted by the government by history ignorant MPs, about the implosion of democracy, about police impotence, about the thought of tribal rule, about how we no longer have one person one vote or one law for all, about my own experience living in a Maori community for 14 years (i.e. first hand experience) and more – essentially, I was thinking deeply about where we are headed as a nation.

All of this falls under one overarching umbrella –

Co-governance.

Really, it’s terrifying.

Ok, back to Graham Adam’s piece.

Today I chose a picture of an iceberg to illustrate what he is saying, and how it relates to co-governance.  Scroll to the top and just study this picture of the iceberg for a bit.  Don’t rush it. Observe. Take your time. This is important. 

The picture shows the tiny proportion of the iceberg out of the water, above the water line, and the massive majority of the iceberg under the water, out of sight.

What’s above the surface represents what elite Maori want the public to see and know with respect to co-governance. It’s the shop front. The window dressing. The BS. It’s what the main stream media (MSM) have been paid to report.  It’s what many innocent Kiwis, particularly people under 40,  have been brainwashed to believe.

What’s underneath is all the deceit, the lies, the treachery, the trickery, the dark hidden facts, the terrible realities of co-governance, the truth about co-governance. It’s what the MSM have been paid NOT to report.  It’s what has been deliberately hidden from Kiwis.

Remember, it was what was under the surface of the water, not above it, that sank the Titanic.

It’s what’s under the surface of the co-governance iceberg that is going to sink New Zealand.

I want to come straight out with what I want to say, with no fluff and no padding.  I am not going to be subtle..

The architects of co-governance are liars, deceitful, tricky, and extremely devious. They are treacherous to the core. 

For me, this is what Graham Adam’s piece brought home.  Graham ought to have touched on this, but he didn’t, so I will.  He can’t cover every aspect. I get that. If I have one criticism of Graham’s writing it’s that he is often too subtle.

With 3 Waters, right from the get go, we, the public of New Zealand have been lied to, deceived, tricked, duped, had the wool pulled over our eyes.

Thank God for people like Graham Adams, Dr John Robinson, Mike Butler, Bruce Moon, Don Brash, Murial Newman, Judge Antony Willy, John Porter, Hugh Perrett, Tony Fellingham. and a host of other great and honest and intelligent New Zealand writers and researchers who have been able to see what is under the surface of the water, the corrupt hidden mass of the co-governance iceberg, the truth about co-governance, and tell us what’s really going on. They have told us the truth through their writing or speaking out or radio messages.

Thank God for journalists like Sean Plunket and the Platform. 

Thank God for mayors like Craig Jepson who stood up and is counted among the brave. 

Thank God for you, the supporters of this stop co-goverance movement who are supporting in various ways. 

 What is it that we all have in common?  

We all just want the truth. We hate lies, trickery, and deception. We want to know the truth, walk in the truth, and be guided by the truth.  Simple really.

If New Zealand is built on any other foundation other than truth, it will struggle.  Not just struggle, but fail. 

The same applies to a marriage, a business, a family, or any relationship.  If it’s built on truth, it will succeed. If not, it will fail. Period.

What I want you to get today, in this blog, is that what Graham Adams has written about 3 Waters is just a tiny insight into just one tiny aspect of co-governance.

Every other aspect of it is riddled with the same – lies, deceit, trickery, treachery, and dishonesty.

What Graham Adams explained in his excellent piece tells us a crucially important truth.

What truth?

It exposes the darkness of the hearts and minds of the people behind co-governance. The people driving it, this coup, for this is what it truly is.

It exposes the kind of people we are dealing with. They are corrupt to the very core.

“Wicked” is the best word to describe them.

I researched the meaning of the word wicked, and this is what I found.
• Evil.
• morally bad or wrong
• Immoral
• deliberately violating accepted principles of right and wrong
• contrary to conscience or morality or law
• deeply criminal

These words, these phrases, describe accurately the architects of co-governance. Graham’s article exposed this, proves this to be so.

One commentary said this “The wicked person is volatile, unpredictable, frightening, and destructive. Like a lion, the wicked know that they have power and they always use it in a destructive way.”

This is the one great truth I want you to get today. These people are bad. Bad to the bone.  

They are not interested in what’s best for New Zealand or New Zealanders. Their only interest is self interest and they are not the least bit concerned about who they trash on the way to their goal.

And what’s more, their bad influence is spreading like wildfire through Maoridom.  Corruption, bribery, dodgy deals, thuggery, intimidation, nepotism, bullying, rude and disrespectful behaviour, using protesters to shut down free speech, the exhibition of a superiority complex, Iwi overreach, and the like, are popping up like mushrooms everywhere.  More and more kiwis are being directly affected, and more and more are becoming angry and resentful.  

Bad character at a leadership level leaks, inescapably showering everyone underneath with its toxic influence.

The architects of co-governance are fast creating racists, non-Maori people who resent Maori.  Even many Maori are becoming ashamed of their own race.  We are heading for a showdown. No one welcomes this, but it’s happening. It’s real. 

If all this is true, and it is, then how can anything good come of co-governance? The answer? Absolutely nothing good can come out of it, or will come out it. Of this we can be absolutely certain.

As the Master said “By their fruit you will recognize them. Are grapes gathered from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit.…”

Co-governance is a bad tree bearing bad fruit, which is what Graham Adams has exposed so brilliantly. It’s just so clear, isn’t it? 

Make no mistake – co-governance is going to destroy New Zealand.  it will not be long before we will be called, internationally, the Zimbabwe of the South Pacific.

Why? Two reasons.

First, the foundation of co-governace is wrong. It’s based on fraud and corruption – a deliberately corrupted understanding of the Treaty of Waitangi. 

Secondly, the people driving the push for co-governance are corrupt to the core. Graham Adams showed this clearly. 

Combine one and two, and what do you get? What’s the only thing you can possibly get?

Absolutely disaster. 

Hence, the Stop Co-governance Road Show, and Julian Batchelor’s book.

What can you do, practically, to help stop the terror of co-governance?

There are many things you can do:

1. Purchase multiple copies of Julian’s book and start handing them out. Email Tim: teacher.tim@icloud.com. Tell Tim your name, physical address, email and phone and he will do the rest. The books are $1 each plus postage.
2. Forward Julian’s blogs onto to everyone in your address book and urge them to sign up to get them daily.
3. Attend Julian’s Stop Co-Governance Tour Meetings and invite others to attend.
4. Write to councils where these meetings are being held and urge them not to cancel these meetings. Ask them to defend free speech. Urge them to back down on their extreme health and safety requirements.  They are imposing these requirements for only one reason.  Not for safety, but to make it impossible for us to hold the meetings.  As such they think they are being clever, but really they are woke cowards, thus making themselves part of the problem.  The could be part of the solution, but they have chosen to join with the ranks of the protesters, of those who shut down free speech.
5. Post copies of Julian’s book to all the church leaders in your town / suburb.
6. Post copies of Julian’s book to radio show hosts and TV presenters and journalists.
7. Post copies of Julian’s book to business owners you know, and people of influence you know.
8. Email everyone on your address book with this link so that they can read Julian’s  book on-line: https://bit.ly/stopcogov
9. Move from being a passive observer to becoming an stop co-governance activist. What do I mean? Read THIS.

Thankfully, Broadcaster Peter Williams and Reality Check Radio are coming to the rescue.  They have not dropped the ball with respect to defending the rights of Kiwis to express their thoughts and ideas freely. All power to them.

Peter and the team have produced an excellent video as part of the fight back.

You can watch it HERE

We now have someone called Kelly who is going to be writing to influencial business leaders to give them a book.

Brilliant work Kelly, and welcome to the team! You are so so valuable.

Mal has a big heart to reach all the RSA’s in New Zealand.  This what she is going to do. Below is to what she wrote to me.

———————————

“Greetings salutations and thanks for the safe arrival of my  latest of your booklets. I thought I’d point out that very soon we will celebrate Anzac Day on the 25th of April followed by King Charles birthday celebration on the 1st Monday in June .What a time to consider Democracy & sacrifice and General Kippenberger’s call to the troops fighting on Crete ( my 40 year old grandad among them) to “Stand For New Zealand”. I am aware there are 182 RSA ( returned & services association) clubs with 102000 members throughout New Zealand plus 15000 regular, reserve and civilian staff in our Navy, Army and Airforce . As I’ve already said, If there is 1 day in the year, before the next election to consider Democracy & sacrifice …..this it….this it !!, or what where our men & women fighting for ? So in brief I’d like think that all 182 RSA clubs and every armed forces establishment has access to you booklet. Even if it’s only 5 or 6 ..but 5 or 6 at ‘Every’ base or club. Placed respectfully and available for those who choose to see…for those choose to read… and for those who choose to Stand For New Zealand .”

——————————————-

Thank you so much for all your efforts Mal.  I know this is going to make a big difference! We supply Mal with the books, the envelopes and the stamps, and she does the rest.

Start by reading THIS newspaper article from the Herald.

Waste Management New Zealand’s applied for a resource consent for a 26 million cubic metre “mega dump” in Dome Valley, north of Auckland.

As per the Resource Management Act, re-jigged by Maori activists, and made Law, so called ‘Iwi’ sign off was required.

In other words, the project could not proceed unless and until Maori ‘approved’ of it.

Really, this is nauseating.

Why does anyone need ‘Iwi’ approval?
How is this being allowed to happen?

There is nothing in the Treaty of Waitangi about co-governance or co-management, or partnership.

We have our local councils, who we pay to do a job through our rates.

That ought to be enough. Now, thanks to co-governance,  it isn’t.

Maori have found a way to get money for absolutely nothing.

OK, back to the Dome Valley story.

At first, Iwi initially said ‘no’ we won’t sign off on the project.

They did this deliberately. We all know why. 

After further ‘discussed with Waste Management New Zealand, Iwi ‘miraculously’, reversed their decision. A 180 degree about turn.

What happened?

Waste Management New Zealand had revert to bribery and corruption to get the project across the line.

“In exchange for the settlement trust’s support, Waste Management has agreed to several conditions, including a return of 1060ha of Waste Management landholdings once the site is no longer required, $2m to construct six homes nearby, and a $10m environment fund should the river be exposed to risk.
It is also promising jobs at the landfill for Ngāti Manuhiri descendants.”

The other ‘tribe’ involved in this case is crying saying ‘Hey, what’s in it for us?”

So here is another problem. Tribes will start fighting over the fruits of the bribes like seagulls at the beach fight over a piece of bread discarded from a family picnic.

We, the tax payer, will end up paying for these bribes and this corruption through increased waste disposal fees.  This is how business works. 

Welcome to co-governance.

And this is only the start.

As a nation, we are just taxiing down the run way with co-governance.

Wait until the plane takes off.

Then the tears of the nation will flow in the gutters.

Exposing this rampant corruption, apartheid, and racism is one of the reasons Julian kicked off the Stop Co-Governance Road Show.

He wants to bring awareness to all Kiwis about what is really going on.

This is also the reason radical Maori want to shut Julian down.

Yes, they want to stop him speaking. Stop him spilling the beans, thus suppressing his right to free speech. And the right of others to hear him.

This is a further layer of corruption.

Our road show rocks on, getting stronger and stronger by the day, thanks to all of you and your support.

Auckland Council’s Ms Wyss cancelled our meeting by setting impossible times frames to come up with Health and Safety requirements.

Then she allowed protestors to meet in the same building we had hired, immediately after our meeting, thus setting up a potential clash.  It was a set up. A Ms Wyss set up. 

That is to say, she deliberately set up the excuse she was going to need to cancel our meeting i.e. “Too dangerous having two opposing groups meeting at the same time.”

She then followed up by lying to media.

Ms Wyss was devious and cunning, working carefully and deliberately towards a pre-determined outcome, all the while trying to sound ‘nice’ and ‘conciliatory.’ She smiled all the way, Jacinda Ardern style.

The velvet glove hiding the iron fist. All this is detailed in our blogs.

We are taking legal action against Ms Wyss to reclaim losses incurred by her cancellation. 

Now Tauranga City Council’s Blair Graham 0274039261 07 577 7000 – ext 7671 looks to be angling to do this same. The picture on the top left is Blair Graham.

What’s the new trick?

Imposing expensive and over the top ‘Health and Safety’ requirements. He wants us to pay for six security guards, safety barriers and fencing, plus road traffic control.

I am not making this up.

Click HERE to see just the security guard invoice. HERE for Blair Graham’s other shocking email.

What Blair Graham clearly does not realise (yet) is that our events are private events, not public events, and the police will be in attendance.  He is reading old news about our events.

Blair Graham’s over the top health and safety requirements are like calling in a Jumbo Jet to crush an ant. 

His misunderstanding  may just be an innocent mistake. Let’s see. The jury is out.  We hope common sense and a full realisation of the facts will prevail. 

The truth of the matter is all the incendiary media reports relate to, and tell of, our meetings which were then public.  All in the distant past. 

This is how it was when when we first started our road show.  It’s not how it is now.

After police advice and guidance, we made our meetings private, not public. 

It was brilliant advice from the police, which we heeded immediately.  Protestors numbers have dwindled since they now know they cannot get into the meetings. 

They now reason “What’s the point in coming? We can’t disrupt anymore.”  

 People coming will be filtered at the door so protestors will not be able to get inside the building.

As I said, we are working closely with police, taking their advice. Police will be in attendance in Tauranga, on the door, where the filtering will be happening.

Thus the public will be guaranteed their safety. 

The last event which we held, our first ‘private’ event, was flawless.

Only one security guard was needed, at the filter point.

Police attended, and there were no issues. The police in Whangarei  will attest to this.

There is no good reason why our Tauranga event will not follow suite.  Let’s believe Blair Graham gets up to speed quickly, and moderates his OTT Health and Safety requirements.  They are all based on misinformation. 

What I want you to notice is how media, protestors, Iwi, and woke politically motivated councillors are all colluding. This is a graphic illustration, real time,  of co-governance in action. 

It goes like this – protestors create the problem, the left wing government controlled media deliberately writes inflammatory reports about ‘the dangers’ and the ‘violence’ and ‘the potential damage to people and property’,

Iwi fuel the protestors (e.g. The Maori Party put a notice on their web site to ‘get out and protest!’), and woke politically motivated spineless PC council workers like Claudia Wyss (Auckland Council) collaborate. 

The media report all this to give the strong impression Julian Batchelor and the stop co-governance road show are the problem. They are not. They are the solution for all New Zealanders going forwards.

They are going into bat for all New Zealand against apartheid, racial division, the erosion of democracy, racism, the end of one law for all, and the end of one person one vote, with all votes being of equal value.

Julian Batchelor and the fast growing Stop Co-governance movement are now having to go in to bat for the preservation of free speech as well.

This was never on their founding agenda, but it is now. Squarely.

Yet in all this Julian Batchelor is being penalized. The public in Tauranga are being penalized.  The thinking, caring, intelligent, discerning public all over New Zealand are being penalised.

The bad people are being hallowed. The good people are being demonized.

If Julian’s public addresses were allowed to happen, and the public were allowed to attend, as private events, free of protest, free from noisy interruption, as they ought in a functioning healthy democracy, these event locations would be the safest place on the planet for the public to gather.

As peaceful as a baby asleep in a cot.

It’s the protestors, the Maori party, Iwi, and the media, who are creating the so called ‘unsafe’ meetings. Woke spineless politically motivated councilors are adding fuel to the fire.  

Let’s hope Blair Graham is not one of them.

The result?

Free Speech is crushed.

Kiwis in Tauranga don’t get to hear co-governance defined, what’s wrong with it, and why it must be stopped. No alternative voice, other than the government approved narrative about co-governance is allowed.  Adult residents in Tauranga are not allowed to make up their own mind.

In other words, free speech is no longer in New Zealand.

Protestors and thugs get to decide who hears what and when.

Is this right? You know the answer.

The irony is that all over the media, including video footage of our PM and Luxon, MPs are urging the public to ‘have a mature discussion about co-governance’.

Just Google Luxon and Hipkins and co-governance and click on ‘video’ and watch what comes up.

Yet look what happens, in reality, when a group of good Kiwis, rise up to obey the country’s leaders, to do exactly what our leaders say to do?

Welcome to the dark murky world of co-governance and tribal rule.

This is precisely why the road show must go on, no matter what.

This is another big one.  Massive job opportunities and international exposure for tourism in New Zealand are lost. All because of Iwi interference.  All because of co-governance. You can read it HERE

This is a big one too. You can read it HERE

Notice who the people were who arranged the cancellation.  It was the protestors Sean Plunket interviewed a few days ago.  Julian was debating them.  You can listen to the interview HERE 

The videos? Click  HERE to watch one of them..  This video is of one of the protesters making a fool of herself talking about NZ History.  

The other was a video of Maori children being used (using tax payer funding) to spread historical untruths about the Treaty of Waitangi.  Click HERE to watch it.

I have copies of both videos on my hard drive.  So it makes little difference to me that Youtube took them down. 

I simply uploaded both videos to other platforms.

“Hi New Zealand, this corrupt madness has to stop. The time is long past for “she’ll be right”, act now. If you can’t do this for your own children or grandchildren’s future, then stop this mindlessness because it is straight wrong. We all have family that fought and died, or worse, came back broken, fighting for democracy, that these evil swine want to rub your noses in. End this co governance this election. Buy the books and get them out, donate, tell the other 159 races in this fine land that this is affecting them and theirs. Purpose to be part of the 100,000 strong march to end this historically wrong social upheaval, Auckland prior to the election. YOU make a difference! Mark.”

Mark, Whangarei.

“Hi Julian, I have taken another tact regarding your books and have left them in waiting rooms at the Dr, and the Physio and where I have have blood tests done. This way several people will get to read them or if nothing else it will get some conversation going amongst those waiting and or the staff.”

Cheers Brian W Brown, Tauranga

Dear Ms Wyss.
I wish to return your attention to the cancelation of Mr Batchelor’s meeting.
That cancelation and the way you went about it and your justification were not acceptable.
As a counselor it is your job to facilitate and enable community discussion.
Mr Batchelor is presenting alternate views on Governance. Ideally the Government itself including ACC would be doing this but unfortunately they are not. Sadly the Government has misled us all on Co Governance, and we deserve to herar all of the views on this subject. The Government has repeatedly said that there is nothing to fear. I disagree. A little while ago the Waitangi tribunal recommended to the Government that they give back all land from Rienga to Devonport to Ngapuhi. Maori Politicians have reinforced that with statements that this will include all privately owned land as well. Just last week the Waitangi tribunal recommended to Government that they invest in a special Mountain talker to talk to Mount Taranaki to listen to its troubles. And yet they say we have nothing to fear?? Are you kidding me ?
Fear of co Governance is deep in every New Zealander and both local and central Government need to make strong efforts to address this fear, and to rationalize the entire Co Governance drivel.
Why have you supported the Aotearoa Liberation League(ALL)? On the one hand you cancelled Mr Bachelors meeting at extremely short notice, with lame excuses, and yet you facilitated an ALL meeting outside the hall. Why does ALL receive support from Government orgs like ACC, and PSA, and Central Government ? ALL is just a bunch of young lay bouts, infiltrated by well-known off shore trouble makers who specialize in disrupting meetings.
You are on record as saying you cancelled the meeting for safety reasons and that is a major road with heavy traffic, yet you facilitated an ALL meeting on the grass outside the hall – even more dangerous one would think?
Ms Wyss. It appears to me that you have a strong political and racist agenda. You are no use to any race or group when you have a biased agenda. If you are not able to conduct yourself in a fair and unbiased manner, then clearly you are not fit for the high positions you hold. Unless you can uphold basic rights in the community, such as Free speech for all, then you are clearly unfit for the job.

Tane Tupuna
Ngapuhi.

“I am appalled at the obviously partisan action of m/s Claudia Wyss , using her position in  Auckland Council , to stop Julian Batchelor’s “ long-booked “ Stop Co-governance meeting going ahead in long-pre-booked premises , by cancelling the booking at “the last minute “ without due cause . This was clearly an action taken by m/s Wyss directly reflecting her personal bias / partisan interest in the situation and completely lacking the objectivity expected of a Council officer .
Mayor Brown , I am very concerned that a Council executive can use their position and the  authority of Council to abuse their responsibility in this manner and get away with it . What are you doing about it ? I , and numerous others, would be very disappointed if you turned out to just be  “ all piss and wind “

This is exactly how the Waitangi Tribunal has been able to shaft the public of billions of dollars.  An expert Maori will be called in to talk to the Mountain (for a fee) and tell us what the Mountain is saying. 

The answer will be something like “Hey, the Mountain told me that the state of the Marae buildings in Taranaki are shameful. The mountain has demanded that tax payers gift $10m to Taranaki Maraes for refurbishments. The mountain told me he is greatly grieved (yes, it’s a he).  If you don’t addrss this, he said, he might even blow is stack, and put on an eruption.  So watch out. This is a threat.  So what do you want to do, Mr Little? Appease the mountain and pay only $10m for Marae refurbishments or anger the mountain and cause an eruption and with it a $100m civil defence emergency?  You’d better cough up the $10m or else.”

The government will have to agree since no one can quiz the mountain or cross examine it, except the Maori expert Mountain talker who is one of their own.  Also, due to Health and Safety concerns, the government will say it has a responsibility to put the safety of Taranaki people first to avoid an eruption. 

Andrew Little will come on the TV and say “In the interests of public Health and Safety, and to avoid a catastrophic eruption, we are awarding Mt Taranaki Maori $10m for Marae refurbishments. This is the worse case of a Mountain grieving in our history.  The crown offers an unreserved apology to Mt Taranaki and with this, here is a cheque for $10m for your Maraes.” 

When interviewed after the cheque was handed over, the Mountain was asked for comment. It said ” Nice one bro.  More money for absolutely nothing.  So easy to shaft these dump Pakeha who believe anything we say!”

Welcome to the world of co-governance.

With respect to what Kiwis believe about co-governance, they  can be divided into 6 distinct groups.

Everyone belongs in one of these groups.

The six groups are:The drivers

1. The ignorant
2. The brainwashed
3. The partly awakened.
4. The awakened
5. The activists 

To which group do you belong? You can read today’s blog HERE

Only the activists can save New Zealand. 

You can hear the debate  HERE

The guts of the argument is that the Aotearoa Liberation League is a group which suppresses free speech. They are quite happy to deny other people free speech.  

As for the Kaumātua mentioned. He was not a Kaumātua at all.  He was a known trouble maker in the Waipu area, according to locals. 

Even if he was a Kaumātua, so what?   If someone breaks the rules of our meeting, which are clear, they are out. not matter who they are.  

All people in our meetings are treated equally, no matter what race or status.  We have one law for all.  This is how it is in a democracy. 

The activists, clearly, think differently. 

By inference, they suggest that because he is a Kaumātua he should have been treated differently.  This thinking is how co0-governance works.  Maori will be viewed as a superior race of people, above all of us.

This betrays the predominant attitude of elite Maori.  

That is, “If you are Maori, you are treated differently to everyone else.  The rules that other people have to abide by don’t apply to Maori.”  

What do we call this attitude? That’s easy. 

It’s racism. It’s apartheid. It’s separatism. And it’s wrong.

By the way, it was also easy to see what Pere was doing when he pulled out the Kaumātua card.  He was race baiting, trying to get other Maori on board i.e. “How dare you offend a Kaumātua!”

My question is this.  If so called Kaumātua are so wonderful, how come not one Kaumātua in the whole country has come forward to pull into line the Maori protestors whose behaviour in our meetings has been disgraceful.  They have been an absolute blight on good Maori.

Why are they quiet? Because if they say anything they will be bullied and harassed by other Maori.  

Such is the hypocrisy and double standards of Maoridom. They will smash up their own if they step out of line. 

Welcome to Tikanga and co-governance.

This is a video of activist Samah speaking to a crowd of 40 people last Tuesday night, the night our event in Auckland was cancelled.  The location of her speaking was a grass area outside the Mt Eden War Memorial Hall. They were giving out vegan Pizas. Watch…  HERE

The idea that real estate agents have to undergo compulsory Maorification is idealogical clap trap.  It’s just another tentacle of the co-governance monster over reaching into another sector of society.  Which sector is next? 

You can read what Sir Bob wrote HERE

Listen to the interview  HERE  

The following are quotes from the interview:

“The site is a very busy site.”

“There is a lot of traffic”

“We sought advice from security experts”

“We sought advice from the police”

“We work closely with organisers and give them advice on what security measures they should consider.   We do give them advice, but when their security measures fall short that is when we sometimes need to make a decision.”

“And we worked with the organisers to understand their safety plans and I am afraid those safety plans came up short.”

These statements in red are outright lies.  

Ms Wyss did not ‘work the organisers.

 Ms Wyss did not give us any advice.  

Ms Wyss, show us where you gave us advice.  Prove it.  Requiring us to come up with a H and S plan is not advice, It’s a directive. 

HERE is the letter we received from Ms Wyss. Can you, please, see any security advice in her letter? You won’t be able to, because there is none.

The following are the facts. 

We booked the hall on the 2 February 12:34pm.

The period of time between the 2 February, the booking date, and the first notice from Ms Claudia Wyss on the 27^th March  at 11:47am was 53 days. That’s 7.5 weeks.  That’s right, Ms Wyss has 7.5 weeks to ‘work with the organisers’ but she did not do this. 

She decided to start communicating with us roughly 36 hours out from the event, asking for a Health And Safety plan. 

She gave us only 1.75 hours to come up with one, which we did.  

Julian ended his reply email to Ms Wyss asking council to advise if anything from the plan was missing or deficient, and if so, to let Julian know so that he could address it to avoid cancellation.

Ms Wyss did not do this.  She simply cancelled the event.  She left corresponding with Julian to the last minute, even though she had known about the site, the traffic, the building, and the situation for 7.5 weeks.

The was a political decision. Now here is the kicker.  Ms Wyss actually orchestrated the conflict. How so? She allowed the 9pm booking immediately after our meeting! In other words, she set up the conflict situation.  Hard to believe but true. Then she bangs on about ‘safety concerns’ when in reality she actually created the safety concerns. 

You make up your own mind after listening to the interview.

My Conclusion?

Ms Wyss clearly lied to Heather du Plessis-Allan and she must be held to account.  Not only this, but she deliberately created the conflict situation by allowing the protestor booking straight after hours. For what reason? To give her an excuse the cancel our meeting. We were stitched up by Ms Wyss.

The Free Speech Union will be climbing into this, and we will too. 

Ms Wyss, see you in court.

Kiwis hate injustice.  We know that.  They are huge defenders of free speech.  

How are they responding to the media corruption, to the council corruption, and to the protestor activity?  

All three are trying to stop our tour.  Answer? New events, new places for Julian to go and speak, are popping up everywhere.

Yesterday 1675 people read his book on line which you can read HERE  

Instead of shutting Julian down, these three – the media, the councils, and the protestors – they are actually fuelling public goodwill to help Julian.  They are blowing on a dandelion. 

New meetings are popping up like mushrooms.

The last minute cancellation of Julian’s event yesterday by the corrupt Auckland Council is a classic example.  Read more HERE

As an organisation, Stop Co-governance, in conjunction with the New Zealand police,  puts a premium on keeping people and buildings safe. We take your safety and your right to listen to who you like seriously.  We support free speech.   If the protestors want to run their own meeting to tell everyone what’s great about co-governance, we say “All power to you! Go for it! It’s your right!” 

just don’t take away our right to oppose your views. Thank you. 

Watch this 5 second video HERE.

Only two years ago, double banger names starting appearing all over the place.  For example, Aotearoa-New Zealand. I knew immediately what was going on, and so did you. 

The grooming for tribal takeover was being stepped up.  

It’s a well known strategy.  It called word substitution.  It works like this.  The groomers link a new word to an existing word.  At first, people are alarmed. They ask ‘what is this new word called Aotearoa appearing with ‘New Zealand’ for?  After a while they get used to it.

Then after a while the word New Zealand is dropped, and the new word Aotearoa remains, on its own. 

What is this all about? What’s going on. It’s much much more than forcing Te Reo. 

It’s part of the elite Maori plan to groom the country by stealth to get the people ready for tribal rule.  If you like, a pre-cursor to tribal rule. 

Maori government. 

This is why I am against co-governance, because this is all happening by stealth.  There is no mandate in law for any co-governance arrangements, not even for name changes of any kind. There is no transparency, no honesty. 

They should have come right and said “Hey, we Maori elite would  like to take over the country.  Would it be ok with all of you 5m people if we link a Maori word with a European word just so you lot can learn our Maori language?  We will soon drop the English word so only the Maori word remains.  And I am sorry, but if you can’t remember what the Maori word meant after we delete the English word, keep a Maori dictionary on you at all times so you can look the word up. And by the way, we are making up words all the time (e.g. Aeroplane =rereangi) because Maori in 1840 did not have most of the things we have in New Zealand now. The colonials brought virtually everything that’s good in New Zealand.  So you’ll need to change the dictionary often.  And is it ok if we Maori elite  rule the entire country by 2040? And are you Ok with the fact that you’ll be second class citizens if you are not one of us elite Maori? Are you all OK with this plan?  Please just ignore the fact that we have completely butchered the Treaty to mean what it never originally meant. We know what we are doing is also undemocratic and what we are doing stinks of apartheid and separatism and it’s going to create massive racial division, but can you please just go along with it?” 

How do you think the people of New Zealand would have voted on this if they’d been asked? If there had been transparency, openness and honesty?

The electorate did not ask for this.  

They would never have agree to it. 

There was no asking the people of New Zealand if this was Ok, or if they approved.

Maori elite just did it.

Kiwis are being duped, and it’s wrong and we must stand against it.

We are excited to announce six more confirmed locations for our meetings, and many more in the pipeline.  The 6  new confirmed meetings are:

Taupo

Balclutha

Nelson

Timaru

Taupo

Kapiti Coast

Congratulations to gutsy brave hall owners / managers for standing for democracy, equality, and freedom of speech against separatism, racism, and racial division.

Last night’s meeting was a huge success.

Protestors did not get in. The police were great. Following police advice, we are making all our events ‘private’ functions, filtering people at the door. This new strategy worked like a dream.

This was a small country hall, our first event in a ‘rural’ setting. We loved it!

The meeting flowed. One protestor slipped through and got in but he was ejected without issue. In the Q and A time, one or two in the crowd were in favour of co-governance ‘I don’t agree with anything you said tonight’ but they can’t say exactly what they disagree with. Funny that.

The Q and A time was fascinating and revealing.

Many people are completely ignorant about the Treaty and all the issues we raise in these public talks, Maori particularly so.

We had several Maori in last nights meeting. It’s obvious they have been brainwashed and are simply parroting what they have heard in the media or from Maori activist Journalists.

Others in the room were very savvy, knowing a lot about the Treaty. The more they know the better. This is Julian’s message. Study, research, find the truth.

The government approved narrative is the exact opposite – keep co-governance vague. Muddy the waters. Cloudy is good. A public ignorant about the realities of co-governance is what they want.

I feel we are making HUGE gains. The content of my talks is constantly being shaped and tweaked. I am getting sharper and better with each meeting. More accurate.

The media are chasing.

Last night we received order for 100’s of books, perhaps over 1000. We have not counted up the exact number yet. 20,000 of Julian’s books arrive on Monday. Many have pre-sold.

We have a distribution centre in Hamilton which has just been set up.

Attendees at the meeting were on fire when they left.

Our team did an incredible job. Truly, they were amazing. They performed with military precision yet fully friendly and relational. So proud of you all!

The Free Speech Union is joining our fight to preserve our right to free speech.  They are starting with the Cambridge Town Hall, but others will follow.

The Free Speech Union is a powerful organisation with many members. They have a stable of lawyers ready to act on our behalf.  You don’t want to mess with the Free Speech Union.

My question is “Why are they so worried?”  You know the answer. 

We are standing for the preservation of democracy and equality, against apartheid, separatism, and racism.  We are standing for one person, one vote, and all votes must be of equal value. 

The media know all this.  The Maori Party knows all this. 

So why all the fuss?  Answer? Julian is preaching the truth, and the truth threatens to expose fraud and corruption, to drain the swamp, and to dismantle the gravy train.  What other conclusion is there? 

Activists are now targeting historian and prolific author Bruce Moon.  Bruce answers them with brilliance and skill.  You can read what the critics are saying and Bruce’s answers HERE

You can read this morning’s Herald article HERE

How is what Julian saying ‘offensive’?  He is promoting democracy, and equality, and is fighting against apartheid, racism, and separatism.  He stands for one person, one vote, and all votes being of equal value. 

How is the council going to monitor ‘deviation’ from free speech? What on earth does that mean?

How is the tour inciting rational disharmony? The truth of the matter is the co-governance has already caused massive racial disharmony, but not a word about this in the media.

Notice how the council has ‘signed up’ and promotes ‘partnership with Iwi’? What about working equally with all people groups who live in the Tauranga area? 

To do so is called equality.  Why are Iwi singled out with special favour over all the other 160 cultures who live in the Tauranga region?   To single out Iwi is blatant apartheid.  Why does the Herald not report this? Answer? They are not allowed to. 

They can only report the government approved narrative.

Mr McNeil says the beliefs expressed by Julian on the road show “do not align with the community outcomes we are seeking to achieve” etc.  Oh really?

So what exactly is it about democracy, and equality, and Julian’s fight against apartheid, racism, and separatism that don’t align?  

Julian stands for one person, one vote, and all votes being of equal value.  What, exactly, is offensive about this?   What values, exactly, do align? We are keen to know – Is it tribal rule? Maori dictatorship? Submission to Iwi? Or what?

The Tauranga council, it is reported, have received 5 emails ‘raising concerns’.  What about reporting the emails from what is now 10’s of thousands of supporters?  Where are the quotes from supporters of the tour? 

Supporters, email alastair.mcneil@tauranga.govt.nz to express your support.

Julian has never described Maori culture as ‘archaic’.   It has a very dark history, but he has never described it has archaic.

 Summary? This is a very unbalanced article.  But what more can we expect from the Herald, which is marinating in the $55 Public Interest Journalism Fund?

I am a beekeeper and had traditionally used Department of Conservation concessions to place my hives on public land.

It seems Ngai Tahu have done a private deal with DOC and now have exclusive rights to public land for beekeeping in the south island.

As such my concessions can not be renewed and Ngai Tahu will take my bee sites for their own use.

These are sites we have established and been operating on for over 20 years.”

“Hi Julian, am against co-governance. I am a pensioner who owns a thermal pool- not used but still paying and now have 2 apply to iwi 4 consent. I have not proceeded. Don’t agree with ‘3 Waters’ where 2 now? Andrea.” (the photo is not Andrea. It’s a stock photo)

Sean interviewed Julian on Monday morning.  It was another great interview.

The police have given us some great advice. They will be actively working with us from now on at our events. We will be following their advice to the letter. Thank you NZ Police for standing up for the right to hold a private meeting without interruption. Thank you for keeping people and property safe.  You can read their advice HERE

Hopefully, Mayor Wayne Brown is coming. We are working on making this happen.
