Locally, we're blessed with Don Brash and Colin Craig, who should form a coalition. Dr Brash knows that the 1840 Treaty of Waitangi was not about an ongoing partnership between two different races, but one people. A young Maori in the same position, but lacking wealth and connections, would likely be jailed, and would have a conviction trailing him for the rest of his life. Brash and Colin Craig, in my opinion, share a wide-eyed disconnection with how some other people see things, and it's not that they're insincere. Actually, that's when Craig's thoughts, and those of Brash, would, in my view, have been mainstream.
