| 1207449 | 2011-06-07 01:11:00 | Whilst vainly searching for my name in the “Queens Birthday Honours List” it came to my notice a disproportionate number who were honoured for “Services to Maori” (some 20 at a quick count), but not one for services to Pakeha. Am I to assume that this is further evidence of Hone Key’s Separatist and Racist policies? :confused: |

| 1207451 | 2011-06-07 01:58:00 | Wonder how much a Sir / Dame costs these days?? Seems that they they give one to anyone who has a well paid job or a socialite who has never work a paid day in her life. Also NZ must be the only country that has honored someone for their contribution to gossip.. Time the hole thing was done away with.. |

Well a 20:0 scoreline indicates to me that it is not only possible, but more than likely probable and therefore probably safe to assume. This also leaves me wondering what the cost to the Taxpayer was for these “Race Based Services” that were worthy of such honours. :confused: |

| 1207455 | 2011-06-07 02:34:00 | Hi B.M. re: Whilst vainly searching for my name in the “Queens Birthday Honours List” Don't bother searching next year...... the G.G's staff will contact you some weeks beforehand to see if you will accept. They don't want the embarrassment of having you publicly saying "stuff it". |
