Hikoi comes to Wellington
UPDATE:
Estimates of the Hikoi have been gauged between 10,000 to 20-30,000. Although Nanaia Mahuta will cross the floor in the first vote there is still no indication as to whether she will resign from Labour.
While Clark stamps her feet and starts calling people names the

Re: Hikoi comes to Wellington
I am very supportive of the hikoi to wellington for the sea-bed and forshore. But wat i am very disgusted that our maori mps seated in the labour department got no balls to undertake such a decision like our Wahine Mareikura Tariana Turia. This kaupapa this hikoi means a real thing to us maori why doesnt Helen Clark and HER Officials support it.
Re: Hikoi comes to Wellington
we should keep doing the hikoi this is our land
Re: Hikoi comes to Wellington
well i don't know much about the hikoi which is why i am researching it but after studying the treaty of waitangi i think that maori have every right to stand there ground which they did but the foreshore and seabeed shouldn't be owned by Government at all after all it was maori who owned them in the first place so i think it should all go back to the maori
Re: Hikoi comes to Wellington
I support this all the way man. I think Hellen sould leave MAORI land alone. I thought the HIKOI was awesome and the flags were da bomb!!! Tahi,rua,toru,wha HELEN IS A HOHA!!! thats the best saying eva. I think Tariana Turia is strong standing up 2 Helen like that and I think all the others want to stand up 2 her but they're all scared. I wanted 2 do a flag but I didn't but i would have put, AOTEAROA LAND OF THE WRONG WHITE CROUD!!!!!!!!!!! Tautoko all da way. Save our seabed whanau!!!!!!!!
