New Zealand history is as much about the UK, the British Empire and the Royal family as it is Maori settlement and the ousting/ killing/ eating of the mouri-ouri (spelling?). I think the current fashion of even blatantly european descendants claiming to be Maori and being upset at the crown is a short-sighted view of history. Not so difficult to fathom when politicians fly criminals at the taxpayer's expense to a meeting where they are asked by Pita Sharples "Why are you fighting whakapapa against whakapapa when there are so many enemies who aren't brown?". Apartheid anyone????
