WATCH: David Seymour has his microphone snatched away while giving a speech at Waitangi…

Like or loathe Seymour. At least he fronts, tells you exactly what he's thinking, and does his best to deliver what he promises. We need more MPs like him.

To all the normal Maori, I'm sorry you have to witness our people acting like jumped up little kids in kindergarten. What a complete clown shows this day has become & time to cut off all taxpayer funding from here on in @mangonui08

To be honest, I just don't care anymore. The Waitangi extremists mean nothing to me. Ignore them.

seriously, what the fuck was the diplomatic protection squad doing that is spastic

@MaramaDavidson you whinge about Luxon not being at Waitangi - why would he if this is the treatment?

Time to become a republic and do away with the treaty. Past it’s used date and just a circus 🎪.

Someone doesn't want him to talk about educating Maori youth, and preparing them for successful lives.

Joe Biden said the quiet part out loud: they want to lock Trump up and throw away the key.

Says everything about modern Waitangi Day. Scrap and give NZ a proper national day, like other nations have.

Typically nasty rude disrespectful Māoris. Waitangi Day is defunct.

For that reason there, the government should never send anyone to waitangi ever again. Listen to them all, and that utter disrespect. Cut them off. Call it New Zealand day and see how they squirm and crap themselves then.
