The TV news (I flick between 1 and 3) left a lot unsaid in their coverage of the so-called hikoi. There were "blink and you miss it" references, such as the video source being Sue Grey, and protesters' anti-vax T-shirts, but they barely bothered to tell the audience who these people are.
It's the usual tossers: Damien de Ment & co. Not representing any iwi or elected Maori group.
Dylan Reeve provides a useful backgrounder here:

“one world government, vaccine dangers, Covid origins, satanic rituals, Bill Gates, communism, authoritarianism, paedophile cults, government mind control, geoengineering and suppressed cancer cures.”
Cool, totes normal.
sovereign citizen movement
Been circulating here for at least the past decade, to my knowledge (emails sent to me for perusal). Some evidence it's a christian plot here:
However the intellectual basis of the movement resides in law (unconventional interpretations thereof).
Damien De Ment, the name is self explanatory.
What else do you expect from MSM churnalism?
Newshub had to muddy the waters by including a Tamaki video on its piece this morning.
Dennis, above, has got closer to the vibe of the hikoi.
Musk trousered $36 billion in one day.

On high food prices:

Yes, it must be difficult getting all that meat the hill down the road to the supermarket shelf. The transport costs sure are a killer.

The majority of vegetables and fruit comes from NZ. So it pays to read the labels.
Fresh Veges are certainly not imported, some fruit like oranges are.
Flour is imported from Australia, in that far far far away land……
All in all the most expensive foodstuffs on the shelf is meat, fresh veges, fish and bread. We are told that this is because we are on the edge of the world. I have very rarely felt like being taken for a ride as with this statement.
It comes right after three waters…
I do however say, that the GST or tax on goods and services is differently applied in other countries than in NZ and hence comparison of pricing ought to be made on average income of a working person vs food prices. If you buy a loaf of bread you cannot deduct tax and ask IRD to refund, do you. Regardless of tax this will indicate affordability when indexed.
Winston NZF not happy about the 3 Waters Policy wouldn't of happened under his watch.
