Geoff Neal from thefacts.nz - Is New Zealand in the midst of a colour revolution part 2

Part Two:
Watch MJ interview Geoff Neal about his recent public submission about the Treaty Principals Bill based on information he has collated using his organisation thefacts.nz which analyses facts and data from all New Zealand datasets and presents them as they are, something the mainstream media tends to gloss over.


GN: Right, so let's move into the slides. Well, let's move into the polling that we can trust and really it's curia and some people will say, you know, the left attack curia and say, oh, they resigned from the research association. You had to fall out with them. And you used to poll for national etc and you poll for the taxpayers union.
But I've looked through all the research and they are the only ones that have actually tested that's publicly published the wording of the treaty principles and said, do you support or disagree with this? Remarkably, if we go back to round of the election, there wasn't a lot of campaigning on this at the time. So people just looked at the wording and it was a very simplistic wording back then.
But three to one Kiwis agreed with the wording and said, yeah, we support this. A remarkable 4 to 1 National voters 6 to 1, labor voters 6 to 1 Act 1 to 1 Greens and New Zealand Persons Party Mori were too small at that time. So huge support for the treaty principles Bill, you would never have heard this through the media. You'd only have heard this from Act.
So this was a year after the election and just before Christmas, so October. And this was a reworded version. It had a lot more information and there was a lot of campaigning from political parties, a lot of biased media coverage. Remarkably, there was still 2 to 1 support for it.
So it dropped from 3 to 1 to 2 to 1 support. Part of that was because it got reworded and some people didn't like the new wording as well. National stayed at 4 to 1. So there's two different polls saying 4 to 1 of their voters. And I've rounded to whole numbers support this. So they're opposed to this bill, that 4 to 1, which is similar to an 80:20 ratio, support this thing.
So that's why a whole lot of people are confused is why has national ruled this out beyond the first reading? They said they won't vote for it in the second reading despite 80% of their voters saying this is a good thing. Yeah, exactly. Truly it is. It's almost if. As if they, they've had instructions from somebody else, you know, saying, well, okay, we're, we're going to bypass this.

MJ: But of course, in a referendum there's no unsure box. It's yes or no. It's binary, black or white. Which is why I really like the support to oppose ratios. That's the closest reflection of if this went to the vote. How would it go? Yeah, exactly. Well, that's our only. That's our only say as a referendum.

GN:Yeah, I've got more on that later on. New Zealand First, 5 to 1 of their voters. So even more the national. You know, they'll post to this too. A coalition partner. They'll post this.5 to 1 of their voters support this. They love it. They love it more than ACT voters do now. So why is the coalition opposed to this?
Well, actually, I think there's a truth that they haven't revealed and they might get upset for me proposing this hypothesis, but I wonder if they're worried about this tool being put on the table and then weaponized against them and twisted a bit. Like the Marine and Coastal Foreshore act, where it went in with their good intentions and it got twisted by an activist judiciary and now they're thinking this could happen again!
