we are closing in on home - unfortunately wallowing in 4 m swell from a couple of directions and fog but at least getting further north each day... #TAN2502 #Antarctica (noting that the image I casually grab a section of has #NOAA marked at the bottom 
)
We've had science talks all the way back interspersed with other fun stuff - tonite was quiz night. My contribution were questions on #TeTiriti and #SplitEnz (mindful that 70% of the team of from not NZ 
)
The US public news show, #PBSNewsHour, had a good piece today on the current government of Aotearoa-NZ's attempts this year to roll back Māori rights, and the massive protests in opposition. It's good to see this story being covered in some depth internationally.
@jeremy_pm@mastodon.nzNZ #Rugby Union are reportedly editing out on social media posts the start of #haka in #AllBlacks vs #Italy test also T J Perenara's last game for the ABs to keep racists from smashing their TVs or whatever device they're watching it on. What Perenara says is: "Toitū te mana o te whenua, toitū te mana motuhake, toitū te tiriti o Waitangi" "the sovereignty of the land remains, the sovereignty of the people remains, the #TreatyOfWaitangi #TeTiriti remains". #NZPol
@jeremy_pm@mastodon.nzWhat David #Seymour Isn't Telling You: #TeTiritioWaitangi #TreatyOfWaitangi Protects #NewZealand 's Nature and Precious Resources.
Over decades, #TeTiriti has stood for the principle of guardianship and taking a long view of New Zealand's nature, its land, sea and sky.
NZ's judicial system and laws have protected NZ from foreign corporate interests wanting to privatise, mine our lands, and acquire and use our sensitive, limited resources.

Hīkoi to Paraliament. Demand that Te Tiriti is honoured. Also, let me be 100% clear on this - conditional allyship is not allyship at all.
Some thoughts about the hikoi:
It included a really broad cross-section of Aotearoa - from babies through to seniors; Māori, Pakeha, Pasifika and many others. From all over the motu.
There was a really warm, friendly vibe.
The beauty and strength of Māoritanga was everywhere.
Seymour's Bill should never have seen the light of day...Coalition politicians need to understand Aotearoa doesn't want or need this Bill. #nzpol #TeTiriti
