Now that was a read and a half! Thank you for the detail though; long, but interesting. I’m not persuaded however. My comment on the Treaty Principles bill would be ‘ACT gets my vote’.

I expect that the successful passage of the ACT Treaty Principles bill will finally help clarify if and what the Principles actually are. A democratically elected government will finally have the opportunity to sort out this mess, and hopefully, put the Supreme Court back where it really belongs, doing Parliaments' bidding. The never ending gravy train that is the Waitangi Tribunal will also have its wings clipped. Permanently clipped if we are to have any racial and national peace in the future. Any treaty settlements that are not complete yet can be finalised, and then it can go the way of the dodo and good riddance.
