| 865908 | 2010-03-11 00:58:00 | home.nzcity.co.nz The Minister has to seek advice when she is a Maori as to a Maori issue? Perhaps all the Maori in the area were waiting for the rock to slowly become river rocks and they won't need electricity as they will use these when heated as part of a Hangi. Usually though, they are inclined to use tractor weights or lumps of used rail lines these days. |

| 865910 | 2010-03-11 02:21:00 | What a waste of time and effort! Do these people have too much time on their hands? It is a bit late to be thinking the rock may have been of some significance. It's in a million pieces. The company went through the correct process. Too late. Get used to it. How bloody stupid. And we are paying Tariana Turia's wages. What a waste of taxpayer's money!:annoyed: |

| 865914 | 2010-03-11 21:29:00 | It's not really a Maori issue - it's a Government issue. The trouble is, these fat-cats are so well off, that while the rest of us are worrying about how to feed our kids, these taxpayer-funded paperweights have no such concerns. So they can afford to cry over the significance of rock. THAT'S the sad part...... I wish MY life was so care-free that I could sit here and ponder if a leaf is green enough. And get paid 200,000 bucks to do so... |

| 865916 | 2010-03-11 23:04:00 | maoris seem to have a big problem getting their **** together. Originally the tainui elders said the rock had no maoris significance at all it was just a rock. Then some sub tribe throws a spanner in the works. These clowns should have protested at tainui hq rather than at the rock. Reminds me of the time a crack in a rock was supposed to be the ruins of some maoris structure. Instead it was found pinus radiata tree roots had cracked the rock. |
