Maori Apology reaches Australia
Maori Apology reaches Australia
The fracas over Hone
Harawira's comments has resulted in an apology
being made
to Australian Prime Minister John Howard by Ngapuhi
leader
David Rankin.
In an article published in today's
Sydney Morning
Herald:
http://www.smh.com.au/news/national/mp-insulting-maori-leader-says/2007/07/10/1183833517634.html
Mr.
Rankin said that Hone Harawira had disgraced Maoridom, and
that the
MP gave the impression that Ngapuhi was
condoning child abuse and armed
uprising. 'Hone's
comments are a disgrace', says Mr Rankin, 'and
his
efforts should be aimed at problems in Northland - in
his own electorate
- instead of
overseas'.
