You've never heard of Ngati Toa?

Admittedly, I've never heard of Tainui Taranaki before. Sounds more like a coalition to me, rather than a proper Iwi.

Anyone interested in joining my te iwi a pressf1? I reckon we have the country covered.

811992 2009-09-20 01:44:00 Give them the Police Station and the Court.

That way they can arrest all non maori and have them locked up forever whilst not prosecuting maori at all.

No I havent heard of Te Tau Ihu the iwi who wants our courthouse.
But they since they spend a lot of time there answering crimes of stealing, violence and fraud I suppose they can claim ownership.

Te Tau Ihu is loosely translated as the top of the south. They aren't an iwi, just a group.

811996 2009-09-20 02:42:00 The land under the Wanganui courthouse was handed over as compensation, and now they receive a massive yearly lease payment.

They should have demolished the court house and built elsewhere, would have been far cheaper, But the point of the entire exorcise is to provide a revenue stream for the claimants which is paid for to infinity by everyone else.

Have a word with Michael about building elsewhere,being careful to make sure it ain't Maori land.I am sure he is not into subsidizing them
That should erk them.
