Press Release
MANA Leader Hone Harawira
14th February
Who Do You Support Maori Party?
“No wonder the Maori Party have gone missing in action – 70% of their own people don’t think the Maori Party’s boss,
John Key, is a good leader” said MANA Leader Hone Harawira.
“Polls have their value but I don’t think we needed one to show that even with the Maori Party translating for him,
Maori don’t believe John Key understands Maori issues.”
“And to nobody’s great surprise, the poll also confirms that 88% of Maori are opposed to government’s plans to sell
state owned assets”.
“And it’s this final issue on which I again challenge the Maori Party” said Harawira. “Your people are opposed to
Section 9 being scrapped or watered down. The decision is yours. You either stand with your people or you stand with
John Key.”
