yeah I was gonna say - Act, United Future, NZ First, National - all European parties
sure they are lead by Europeans, but the party is not built to target one race, the Maori party was and is built on winning the Maori seats and appealing to the Maori population.
and who do you think they are appealing to?
are you seriously saying that if NZ was only 13% European, you'd gladly live a Maori-centric life, including speaking Maori, having Maori in pretty much all the media etc.
Bearing in mind that NZ is the only country in the world with Maori, so ou can't just leave the country for some affiliatiion....this is it.
All minority parties cater to minority factions - if there was a European Party, yes, it would be racist, becuase you are already in the ruling elite, so you're motives would be to what - to crush Maori? render them obselete?...
Sticking up for your dwindling culture isn't racist, but being oppressive toward another race is
