I spent much of yesterday following events in the north of New Zealand.

Lamestream media would have you believe that mostly Pakeha (European) protesters (always described negatively) were turned away from Waitangi by Iwi (the tribe) while there were small groups “loitering” on the southern border of Auckland at Mercer.

Listen here

The truth was practically the opposite of the scant media coverage. In fact the Hikoi was in fact invited onto the marae by the elders. There were contradictory reports about those from the south who were stopped from continuing their journeys by the police who reportedly had been instructed to stop the protestors from getting food and drink.

While earlier reports said that the local land owner told them to the leave his land where they were camped it turned out that the local landowner turned up on horseback offering food.

Listen to this report here.

SOVEREIGN HIKOI UPDATE

The north side of Mercer is occupied by over 100 living men & women in support of their southern whanau & friends who have made the decision to occupy the southern side of Mercer border after being refused entry to travel through Auckland to Waitangi to celebrate He wakaputanga/Declaration of Independence day.

Over 60 cars, with at least 2 occupants each, are parked waiting to get passage through Auckland to go north.

They have two vans who have occupied one lane traveling north, which has resulted in trucks being backed up for miles.

The police are jamming the signal which means getting the truth out via social media is difficult.

Fake media is misreporting that people are small in numbers and leaving.

The line is being held, police and iwi leaders are reported to be reaching out to the hikoi leaders for negotiations.

Others are now leaving Whangarei for Kawakawa.

Sue Grey is already in Waitangi.

They are calling for all to join them.

SUE GREY ADDRESSES WAITANGI

Carlene is the woman who just a few. days ago called the Hikoi.

CARLENE HEREORA TAKES THE MIC

This calling home to Waitangi, on the Declaration of Independence, is far more than a celebration.

Our right to travel, to work, to socialise and our right to just live freely has been taken away by a narrative based on falsehoods and deceptions.

Carelene knew there would be fallout from the elders but this marae is the only place she felt she could have open conversation about the important issues.

NEGOTIATION CONTINUES AT THE AUCKLAND BORDER

The Sovereign Hikoi of Truth continues to hold the line at the southern border (that should not exist).

The position of the people was expressed firmly once again with documents being served.

With neither side backing down a special negotiating team was introduced by the police with classic diffusion tactics.

With the important day of the 28th of October (Declaration of Independence 1835 celebration) less than two hours away, who’s will shall prevail – the people or the corporate dictatorship?
