Some people are not happy with ACT leader David Seymour’s proposal.

Some people are seeking autonomy.

Some people do not believe we should all be treated equally under one law for everyone.

Some people appear in various statistics more than others. Could this be due to genetics, culture and diet?

Some people claim the education system is letting them down. But other people seeking refuge from overseas arrive here with nothing, and unable to speak English, yet go on to excel in our society. I wonder how?

Some people blame their crime rate on social poverty. Yet in overseas countries with nationwide poverty, the crime rate is often quite low. 

Some people believe colonisation has had a huge detrimental effect on them. Yet, some other peoples have been colonised several times. The Romans invaded first (no treaty), then the Vikings invaded (no treaty), Then the Normans invaded and built all their castles in the land (no treaty). Yet the people of this land came to create the most powerful empire in the world.

Food for thought…
