Hell they're stopping folk at the Harbour Bridge and if they don't have "valid reason" they're turning them around and sending them back, some with a bit of educating, some with infringement notices.

Well the police not singing from the same hymn sheet is not new, probably wearing patches in Whaka!

Having slept on this and considering the wording on legislation.govt.nz, I don't think there is any practical difference in the law as it applies to Maori and non-Maori (we're all lawyers now in addition to being vaccinologists!). I suspect the instructions on other government websites (e.g. covid19.govt.nz) are what they would like us to do rather than what is law. Whether the police and Karens know this is another matter.

Mmm, I’m afraid mate all that crowd are doing atm are beating up their mrs’s - I know.

This other bunch are riding around like it’s a Sunday afternoon zooming past walkers (us peasants) towards Whaka and then returning an hour later.
I forget the stats but they are right up there as far as accidents are concerned- but hunting? Don’t start that again…
I work with a couple of big banana bike riders and cocks the lot of them

I was led to believe it was 5kms from home?

Has anyone ever wondered what these permits are really about?

Why do we citizens have to have permission from some of our employees (government noddies) to access public (our) resources on public (our) land?

What possible benefit do tax payers receive in return for paying for the issuing of these permits?

The public land is NOT DOC LAND as they like too pretend. It does not belong to "the crown" either. It belongs to all of us and all of us should be entitled to use it.

Why do we comply with and pay for so much bureaucratic bullying and nonsense that we did not ask for or derive any real benefit or value from?

I do not see any benefit in return for having to apply for a permit to go for a walk on public land looking for animals that our employees in DOC call pest and are trying to eradicate with poisons.

These pieces of paper we are forced to apply for, print and carry with us do nothing for us, so why should we agree?

We only agree because we are fearful of being punished by some government employee or other whose wages we are also forced to pay for.

We all know perfectly well that our safety and that of others who might be in the same area is our own responsibility and that none of the bureaucrats who sit in flash offices spending our money do anything useful to help us.

Our entire government system became corrupted by the "user pays" scam, which was really about making us pay twice. Once by taxes on our incomes to fund more burdensome bureaucracy and then again for access to use what we have already paid for to increase the size and power of the same burdensome bureaucracies.

Business is transactions between WILLING BUYERS and WILLING SELLERS.

The "business" that these government enterprises are in is called EXTORTION (forcing people to pay for what they do not want and are NOT WILLING to pay for.)

We need to face the truth that we are all being ripped off and bullied by arrogant and incompetent "employees" who provide li9ttle or no benefit in return for what we are forced to pay.

Got any good hunting stories or pics mate. Or are you just on here to stir shit?

Basically giving everyone at home the middle finger.
Is that what is considered customary food gathering? With tracking collars.

Of course not.........Level four lock downs don't apply to him and I'm not being facetious or sarcastic, but basing my statement on
1...His voice.
2...His skin colour.
3...His protest music background.

All of which lead me to believe that he is part Maori and Maori are exempt by Government from the law forbidding every other RACE of New Zealander from hunting and or fishing during this Covid lockdowns.

They have a special, strange exemption for ‘Māori customary’ fishing and food gathering. The Government is clear that Non Maori can’t fish or hunt under Alert Level 4. Too dangerous but obviously the viruses respect Maori customary rights and will not infect Maori.

It becomes very much how you perceive your own interpretation.
Always a way to turn it around to ones own advantage.
Should you choose to go hunting there ate jist a few rules to follow so as to not pit others at risk
Injuries/ medial events -do the right think and shoot yourself.
If yoi are caight by the feds you automatically loose your firearms licence for 5 years and are subject to a fine and forfeited said firearms.
Go on do it please
