PREDATORS OR PROFESSIONAL? THE REGULATORS WHO LOOKED AWAY

Two decades of failed companies, damning court rulings, unpaid farmers, and trust boards openly targeted — yet regulators still allow them to operate.

The Record of Urquhart and Flett

Craig Urquhart and Alastair Flett continue to present themselves as fund managers. Yet the record shows a consistent pattern: failed companies, unpaid creditors, litigation defeats, and investor losses.

Their investment offerings have been wrapped in assurances of safety, security, and mortgage-backing. Time and again, those assurances have proven unfounded.

Early Warnings

The courts had already identified the risks more than a decade ago:

Spanbild v Urquhart & Miller — the Court ruled there was “no arguable defence” when Urquhart refused to pay his share of a $1.2 million shortfall.

Tubbs v Urquhart — Justice Heath recorded that receivers had to seek an arrest order after Urquhart refused to hand over company records.

The record was already clear: obstruction, non-compliance, and leaving others to carry the financial burden.

Insolvency in 2021 — While Raising Funds

In Re Urquhart [2021] NZHC 1326, Urquhart admitted debts approaching $5 million and proposed to settle at 8.5 cents in the dollar. The Court rejected it, noting “serious public concerns” about his conduct.

At the same time, he and Flett had registered Kiwi Funds Limited and were raising millions from wholesale investors. The contradiction is stark: in court, insolvent; outside court, soliciting investor capital.

The Oxford Finance Case — Pointe Ormiston

The Oxford Finance case underlines the risks. Urquhart borrowed through Pointe Ormiston Estate Limited, but records show he never made a single repayment. His co-director was left financially ruined, losing property as a result.

Companies Office filings were also altered, with documents lodged under the false name “Craig Alexander,” obscuring his history from basic due diligence.

Only Oxford’s threat of public exposure ultimately forced repayment. Regulation did not.

Kiwi Funds: Security That Did Not Exist

By 2024, Kiwi Funds is in the spotlight. Its Information Memorandum stated:

“All investments are secured by first-ranking general security agreements…”

It bore the signature of chairman Alastair Flett, a chartered accountant.

The Court found otherwise: no perfected security existed. In one instance, a GSA was registered only after receivership had begun. Investors who believed they held first-ranking protection were left unsecured. Within five days of the judgment, Flett resigned from all related entities.

Carriers and Farmers Left Exposed

The consequences were not confined to investors on paper.

Between 2023–2024, multiple transport carriers financed by Urquhart and Flett went into receivership or liquidation. When they sought account statements, they were refused.

Farmers who sold livestock through traders financed by them went unpaid — in some cases hundreds of thousands of dollars.

In May 2024, South Island carriers approached this investigation to expose the scale of the problem.

Invoice Factoring and Investor Funds

Further inquiry shows that the carriers and farmers were trading with Urquhart and Flett through their entity NZ Trade Finance Limited, which provided invoice factoring to transport operators and livestock buyers. The funds for this factoring came directly from investor money advanced into Kiwi Funds, the wholesale investment vehicle controlled by both men.

The Kiwi Funds Information Memorandum — recently sourced and supplied to us directly by NZ Invest Group (a new phoenix-branded investment vehicle under which Flett and Urquhart are now trading, seemingly to distance themselves from the Kiwi Funds brand following the October 2024 judgment — though notably, the IM itself still carries Kiwi Funds branding) — states that all such investments are to be secured by first-ranking securities, including general security agreements and mortgages. Kiwi Funds then lent into NZ Trade Finance Limited and NZ Finance Group Limited on those terms. These were the same terms presented to the Māori trust board investor.

However, the October 2024 judgment (sourced from NZLII) found these very terms were not complied with. For over 12 months, Kiwi Funds had knowingly failed to perfect securities, misleading investors about the protection of their money. Pariah media contacted, the investors named in the October 2024 decision, who declined to comment, as citing there is further ongoing High Court proceedings with Kiwi Funds.

This entire investigation began with an aggrieved transport carrier and livestock buyer — FFL Group — (to which NZ Finance Group Limited placed into receivership in March 2024) contacting the platform on the record, alongside multiple South Island carriers who described being on the receiving end of “big bully boy” tactics by Urquhart in particular. Urquhart himself communicated with this platform on multiple occasions, accusing his victims of misinformation. Notably, in the October 2024 judgment, he was found to have misled investors in his dealings.

A clear pattern has emerged throughout this 14-month investigation: victims consistently report being subjected to smear campaigns by both Urquhart and Flett. Their strategy appears consistent — the best form of defence is attack.

During this period, a senior member of an iwi trust was also subjected to a targeted defamation campaign, leaving them to fight for personal and professional survival while litigation continued. The record shows that for Urquhart and Flett, court action is not an exception but a recurring feature of their business model.

Trust Boards Targeted

In October 2024, a trust board was informed that its investments with Urquhart and Flett were “lost.” Instead of restitution, trustees faced aggressive litigation and public criticism.

The timing was notable: these events coincided with the October 2024 judgment against Kiwi Funds. Within days, Flett resigned from all entities.

Fear and Intimidation

Accounts from victims and former employees describe a strategy of fear:

Urquhart is said to boast he can “drag you to hell and back” through litigation.

Flett is reported to deflect scrutiny by attacking the character and record of those who complain.

Meanwhile, lifestyle signals diverge sharply from insolvency claims. In 2021, Urquhart declared himself broke before the High Court; outside it, he continued to live in luxury.

A Familiar Model

The record across cases shows a recurring model:

Investor funds diverted into unrelated acquisitions (Permadeck, Quilt, commercial and residential property).

Investors later told their money was unavailable, tied up and then ultimately “lost.”

At Norfolk Funds Management, both men were forced out for non-disclosures, insolvency issues and ongoing court matters.

Those who challenged them reported being attacked, discredited, or drawn into protracted litigation.

In July and August 2024, Urquhart spoke openly on the record, but later sought to recast or deny those statements.

The Pattern

The record across cases shows the same cycle:

Offer security that does not exist.

Raise capital under the wholesale investor exemption.

Collapse, leaving creditors and investors unpaid.

Deploy litigation against victims, often funded from their own money.

Harass or intimidate complainants.

Withdraw, rebrand, and re-emerge under new structures.

Courts have recognised this. Victims have lived through it. Regulators, however, have not intervened.

Why Reform Is Needed

The wholesale investor exemption remains the central shield. It allows capital to be raised without requiring operators to prove they are fit and proper. Victims face prohibitive legal costs, while the operators continue unchallenged.

Judges have already sounded the alarm:

“No arguable defence.”

“Failure to comply.”

“8.5 cents in the dollar.”

“Serious public concerns.”

The question is no longer about evidence. It is about regulatory will.

Conclusion

The record shows a long trail of collapsed companies, unpaid debts, and investor losses tied to Urquhart and Flett. What also emerges is a pattern of regulatory inaction. Until the wholesale investor exemption is reformed, the cycle of collapse and re-emergence is likely to continue.

Kelvyn Alp’s full interview with The Spinoff about his Tamaki Makaurau campaign.

I’m Kelvyn Alp, and I’m not here to peddle empty promises or establishment rhetoric. I reject division and separatism – we’re all part of the solution, as global pressures like unchecked immigration threaten to drown out our voices, rendering Māori vs. non-Māori debates irrelevant. I’m not “far-right”; no one can pin that label on me with evidence that holds up. My record – using a Māori passport abroad twice, aiding the Māori government since 2000, and personally funding the building bearing my name at Leabank Primary School in 2009 – proves I deliver results, not talk. That building, expedited through my working closely with Manukau City Council, boosted school attendance by providing breakfast clubs, free counselling, and budgeting advice, showing I do, not just say.

While I don’t toe any party line, I stand firmly by the NZ Loyal policies I wrote myself, as they’re real solutions to this country’s problems, not glossy wish-lists dangled without intent to deliver. My greatest asset is understanding both Māori and non-Māori perspectives, always seeking beneficial outcomes for all without disadvantaging any. One person can’t repeal legislation alone – anyone claiming otherwise is dishonest – but I’ll build relationships to drive change based on need, not desire. My priorities are clear: bridge the gap between Māori and non-Māori, tackle predatory businesses, and address poverty’s root causes with facts, not wishful thinking. This by-election is for less than half a term – give me one chance, one term, one time to prove my worth. If I fail, boot me out in 2026.

Unlike front-runners Peni Henare, who’s achieved little since 2014, or Oriini Kaipara, a former media talking head with no exposés, I’ve proven myself through action.

Almost 40% of those in the electorate are under 35 years old, yet voter turnout for that demographic was only 65% at the last election. Why do you think turnout is so low for this demographic and what have you done during the campaign to engage this group and encourage them to vote?

Young people under 35 are fed up with politicians who promise big but deliver nothing, leaving them disillusioned. They see the system propping up establishment hacks while poverty, housing, and job insecurity worsen, making voting feel pointless. In this campaign, I’ve utilized my connections in Tāmaki Makaurau to reach a wide audience, and have used social media platforms for fact-based information dissemination and responded to any questions asked and responded in a way that cuts through the noise. I’ve told them straight: this byelection is their chance to break the cycle. NZ Loyal policies, which I penned, offer real solutions, not empty promises. Give me one term to deliver, and if I don’t, kick me out next year.

If you are successful in this election, what would your top three priorities be specifically for the electorate?

First, I’ll bridge the divide between Māori and non-Māori in Tāmaki Makaurau by fostering real dialogue – talking with each other, not past or at each other – because we’re all part of the solution as bigger threats like immigration dilute our voices. Second, I’ll crack down on predatory businesses and finance companies exploiting our vulnerable families, using evidence-based policies to stop their scams. Third, I’ll tackle poverty’s root causes – lack of education, jobs, and health access – with solutions grounded in need, not wants, to benefit all without disadvantaging any, reflecting my ability to understand both sides.

How would you work with mana whenua groups to ensure their concerns and priorities are addressed and supported?

I’ll engage mana whenua through direct, fact-based discussions, focusing on shared needs like environmental protection [addressing pollution and waste – not climate change alarmism] and community well-being. I reject separatism – our strength lies in unity, especially as external pressures threaten to overshadow local concerns. My NZ Loyal policies, which I crafted, prioritize solutions that work for all. My approach, proven by my work with the Māori government since 2000, is to listen, collaborate, and deliver outcomes that benefit everyone in Tāmaki Makaurau without favouring one group over another.

How would you work with the council and local boards to implement policy changes and address concerns you have? How well do you understand the machinery of council and do you have established relationships within council?

I’ll work with Auckland Council and local boards by building strong, evidence-driven partnerships, pushing for policy changes through relentless advocacy and joint efforts on issues like housing and transport. I won’t just go along to get along. My experience, including working with Manukau City Council in 2009 to fund and expedite the building bearing my name at Leabank Primary School, shows I understand council mechanics – its committees, obligations, and red tape. That project, which I personally funded, boosted school attendance through breakfast clubs, counselling, and budgeting advice, proving I deliver results that benefit all. While I don’t rely on establishment ties, my grassroots connections and NZ Loyal policies drive real change.

Do you think the Independent Māori Statutory Board deserves more power within the council? Why or why not?

No. Giving the Independent Māori Statutory Board more power risks deepening division, which I reject. We’ve seen too much talking past each other – separatism weakens us all. The Board’s role is to ensure Māori voices are heard, but more authority could create parallel systems, pitting Māori against non-Māori. As global issues threaten to drown out our voices, we need unity. My focus is on collaborative solutions that benefit everyone without disadvantaging any, reflecting my understanding of both sides’ needs.

In April, Shane Jones threatened to step-in to stop the Waitākere Ranges Heritage Area management agreement. What are your views on how it has turned out? Do you think mana whenua deserve to have an equal number of seats on the decision-making committee as other authorities?

Shane Jones’ threat to meddle in the Waitākere Ranges agreement was heavy-handed, but the outcome – preserving local input – shows top-down control doesn’t always win. I don’t support equal seats for mana whenua on the committee if it’s tokenism or creates imbalance. Representation must be based on need, not quotas that fuel division. I’ll prioritize fair, evidence-based outcomes for all. My record, like using a Māori passport abroad, shows I respect mana whenua while seeking solutions that unite Tāmaki Makaurau without disadvantaging anyone.

Tīkapa Moana has been suffering severely in recent times. Depleted fish stocks, invasive exotic caulerpa, and the ticking time-bomb of the RMS Niagara. How will you address these issues if elected as the Tāmaki Makaurau MP? Would you repeal the legislation allowing commercial fishing within protected areas of Tīkapa Moana?

Tīkapa Moana’s crisis demands action, not talk. I’ll push for tougher enforcement against overfishing, seek to fund research to eradicate caulerpa, and demand a clear plan to neutralize the RMS Niagara’s risks – all rooted in evidence. On commercial fishing in protected areas, I won’t lie – one person can’t repeal legislation alone; anyone claiming otherwise is a fraud. But I’ll build coalitions to work toward repealing harmful laws, guided by policies that prioritize the ecosystem’s health for all in Tāmaki Makaurau. My record, like funding the Leabank building that boosted school attendance through breakfast clubs, shows I deliver results that benefit everyone.

Food and transport costs hit Māori and Pacific families the hardest in this electorate. What practical steps would you take to ease this pressure?

Māori and Pacific families are being crushed by predatory businesses and rising costs. I’ll target exploitative finance companies with fact-based regulations, capping interest rates and enforcing transparency, as outlined in policies I stand by. I’ll push for subsidized transport passes for low-income whānau and expand community-led food programs, like the breakfast club I funded at Leabank Primary in 2009, which increased school attendance and improved learning by ensuring kids were fed, with added counselling and budgeting advice. These solutions, rooted in need, benefit all without disadvantaging any, reflecting my understanding of both sides. However, unless this country solves its debt-crisis and financial mismanagement, there will be no genuine solutions available that aren’t akin to putting a plaster on an amputation.

With Te Aka Whai Ora disestablished and our health system under pressure, how will you make sure Māori in this rohe still have equitable access to care? What about rangatahi mental health in particular?

Te Aka Whai Ora’s end was a setback, but I’m here to fix problems, not complain. I’ll fight for targeted funding to community clinics in Tāmaki Makaurau, ensuring Māori get culturally responsive care without bureaucratic roadblocks. For rangatahi mental health, I’ll advocate for evidence-based peer-support networks and accessible counselling, tackling root causes like poverty and disconnection. My policy position advocates equitable solutions for all. My work, like funding the Leabank building that provided free counselling, proves I deliver outcomes that unite Māori and non-Māori without favouring one over another.

When your party’s stance clashes with the needs of Tāmaki Makaurau whānau, who will you side with – and can you give a concrete example of where you have gone against the grain before?

I answer to Tāmaki Makaurau’s whānau, not any party line, though I stand by the NZ Loyal policies I wrote as genuine solutions, not empty promises. My loyalty is to evidence and the electorate’s needs, ensuring outcomes benefit all without disadvantaging any. I’ve gone against the grain before – using a Māori passport abroad twice, defying systems to prove a point, and funding the Leabank Primary building in 2009, which I worked with Manukau City Council to deliver, boosting school attendance through breakfast clubs, counseling, and budgeting advice. Unlike Peni Henare, who’s coasted since 2014, or Oriini Kaipara, with no exposés, I’ve delivered results. Give me one term to prove my worth – if I fail, vote me out in 2026.

Candidate calls for reform after $1.8 million ‘lost’ from Iwi Trust Board.

A Broken System That Betrays Investors

As a candidate in this election, I cannot stand by while New Zealand’s wholesale investment framework continues to let investors down.

Today, fund managers who manage millions of dollars are not even required to prove they are fit and proper persons. Worse still, when investors suffer devastating losses, regulators tell them to go to the Police or the SFO – and those agencies then say the matters don’t “meet the threshold.” The result is a revolving door of inaction, leaving victims abandoned.

This is not regulation – This is neglect.

The Human Cost of Regulatory Failure

Let’s be clear: this isn’t theory – it is happening right now.

• Black Robin Equity collapsed, leaving investors with devastating losses; some lost over $1 million.

• Senior Trust Capital is under FMA investigation and winding down. Investors have been told it could take up to 10 years to get their money back, if at all.

• Du Val Group was placed into statutory management, with regulators pouring energy and taxpayer dollars into that single case. Yet by focusing almost entirely on Du Val, they have left some of the worst wholesale operators in the market untouched – free to continue ripping off Kiwi investors.

• Right here in Pukekohe, a fund operated by a questionable financier with a long history of failed finance companies and his partner, a chartered accountant from the Waikato, declared in October last year that a Māori trust board’s $1.8 million investment was “lost.” Instead of accountability, they attacked the trust’s CEO, victim-shamed the board, and forced the victims into the High Court to fight for justice. They know the court system is broken – they know it will take years before the victims even get a hearing. And when they are finally held to account, they rise like a phoenix, launching new fund brands under different names to hide their trail.

This is exactly the type of behaviour that Minister Andrew Bayly once said he would stamp out – phoenix directors creating new fronts to dodge accountability. But it isn’t happening. These operators continue to appear, ripping off our families and destroying victims with intimidation and victim shaming.

This is a textbook example of Ponzi-style schemes operating unchecked in our financial markets.

How Victims Are Silenced?

Unsophisticated investors, community trusts, and Māori boards are deliberately targeted because they are less likely to go public if they lose money – fearing ridicule in the market and in the media. When they do speak up, they are attacked and defamed by the very fund managers who misled them.

This isn’t just financial abuse – Its intimidation designed to silence victims.

My Commitment to Change

I will fight to regulate the regulators and put an end to this culture of impunity. My plan includes:

1. Licensing Wholesale Fund Managers – every manager must be licensed by the FMA and pass a fit and proper test.

2. Automatic Investigations – any complaint involving a loss over $50,000 must trigger an investigation, no excuses.

3. Protecting Vulnerable Investors – special support for Māori trusts, community investors, and unsophisticated investors; legal protections against victim shaming and intimidation.

4. Accountability of Agencies – the FMA, SFO, Companies Office, and Police must report annually to Parliament on the complaints they receive, what actions they took, and why.

Final Word

“I will hold fund managers to account. I will hold regulators to account. And I will fight for the thousands of ordinary New Zealanders – right here in this constituency – who deserve protection from predators in suits. Next week, I will be naming the Pukekohe party responsible. The only way to get rid of this infectious material is to shine light on it and disinfect it – so it stops happening to any more victims. We cannot wait for the next collapse. We must act now.”

Truth on Trial: Forensic Video Analysis Report

Kelvyn Alp and Hannah Spierer drop explosive evidence that the ‘Christchurch Mosque attack’ video [March 15, 2019] – banned in New Zealand from being viewed, possessed or distributed – was a staged event. It’s FAKE!


We make no claims pertaining to what else may have happened on that day, however, what we can say with absolute certainty, is that the video exhibits zero victims and is a staged event. This information is chilling considering the follow-on draconian measures implemented after the event – it further calls into question, the integrity of all involved. The official government narrative has now collapsed.

Due to the censorship of the video within New Zealand, the team were forced to travel to Thailand to undertake the detailed examination and analysis.

The ‘Forensic Video Analysis Report’ authored by Gareth Jacobs and recently peer reviewed by other experts leaves no doubt of a cover-up at the highest levels.

Quotes from the first page of the report:

I contacted Detective Inspector Chris Cahill, the President of the Police Association and discussed the concerns I had with the video. I urged him to make contact with the officers involved with the shooting inquiry to urge them not to use that video as evidence in any upcoming court case as it was likely fake and may jeopardise the case.’

I have used my 5 years military experience and 14 years as a Digital Forensic Analyst as a basis for reviewing the authenticity of the video and reporting on my findings. The findings will show compelling evidence that the video is not genuine.’

Exposing the Fabrications: Charlie Mitchell’s Desperate Smear on NZ Loyal and My Candidacy

https://www.thepress.co.nz/politics/360787040/ghost-party-centre-bitter-political-feud

Charlie Mitchell’s so-called “journalism” in The Press – that pathetic hit piece masquerading as news – is nothing but a recycled pack of lies from Liz Gunn, twisted into a narrative to distract from real issues facing New Zealanders. Let’s dismantle this farce point by point, with facts, not fantasy. Mitchell, you took my direct responses and buried them under Gunn’s delusions. Time to set the record straight – hard and unapologetic.

First, the “ghost party” nonsense. NZ Loyal isn’t dead; it’s alive and kicking as an organization. Gunn’s unconstitutional stunt – ordering former secretary Michele Smith to deregister without board approval or a proper meeting – doesn’t erase us. We’re re-registering with the Electoral Commission, and my use of the name, logo, and branding is legitimate because they belong to the party, not her ego.

Why not start a new party? Because this one isn’t broken; it’s just been sabotaged by a fraud. I’ve sued Gunn and Smith in Manukau District Court – the evidence there shreds their charade. Mitchell, you ignored this lawsuit because it exposes the truth you won’t print.

Gunn’s whine about “misleading voters” and “theft”? Pure projection from a con artist. Every NZ Loyal policy? I wrote them. Her teleprompter speeches? My words, tweaked by Amy Benjamin, then spun by Gunn’s theatrics. The party’s name and tagline “Loyal to you – Not to them”? Born in a group effort – Rob suggested “Loyal,” I crafted the tagline. Gunn tried to steal it all via a trademark application (stalled for a year – check IPONZ yourself). She’s the thief, hoarding donations in secret accounts with zero records, bolting with the database and assets while the board – which never even met under her – opposed her every move. We’ve eviscerated her lies in a two-hour Counterspin Media rebuttal: watch it on Rumble and see the receipts.

Why did our “relationship deteriorate”? Simple: challenge Gunn’s opacity, demand accountability, and she ghosts you, then unleashes a torrent of victim-playing slander. Classic playbook from someone exposed as a sham. Mitchell, your fixation on this feud reeks of agenda – why amplify a disgraced has-been’s rants instead of my by-election platform in Tāmaki Makaurau? Voters deserve focus on economic betrayal, sovereignty threats, and real solutions, not your archaeological digs into fabricated drama.

NZ Loyal, Counterspin Media, and I have already obliterated Gunn’s fiction. This isn’t a feud; it’s accountability.

Mitchell and The Press, your “reporting” is utter bullshit – the system is shitting bricks because you all know we’re coming for you. Within a weeks time, I’ll make my intentions so perfectly clear that even half-wits like you won’t miss the messaging.

New Zealanders, join the fight for truth at the ballot box.

Loyal to you, not them.

THE BATTLE HAS BEGUN!


TVNZ’s 1News journalist Te Aniwa Hurihanganui requested an interview with me today. Unable to attend, I asked for written questions. For transparency and accuracy, I’ve shared the questions and my exact responses below, as I requested they be reported verbatim.

Why are you running for the Tamaki Makaurau Seat?

Response: I decided to stand for Tamaki Makaurau because I believe I am better equipped than those with an ethno-supremacist mindset to address the issues facing us all. Having already witnessed the rabid response from many identifying as ‘Maori’, it illustrates the amount of work required to pull us all back from the brink of civil unrest. We all have a common enemy, and that enemy is not each other. I am from both worlds, so I can see with a sense of clarity that several of the other candidates lack.

Professor Mohan Dutta has told 1News you have been a prolific spreader of disinformation and conspiracy theories, including around covid-19 vaccine harm. He also said some of your comments, including one about hanging politicians, is dangerous. What’s your response to this?

Response: Professor Dutta perfectly embodies what ‘educated just enough to be stupid’ means. As for being a prolific spreader of ‘disinformation’, I shall say this – I have been proven to be 100% correct. The jabs were not ‘safe and effective’. The jabs have cause death and harm to countless. Perhaps the professor needs to get out of the classroom more and do a tour of the country and ask people how they were affected?

The comment about ‘hanging politicians’ further demonstrates the professor’s ignorance and desire for snappy sound bites. He will discover, if he bothers to reexamine my words, I stated words like: if this was the days of old, people would have kicked down doors, dragged out the politicians and hung them from the nearest lampposts. What happened to this country during the time of the great scamdemic is a tragedy and requires full-blown criminal investigations – not whitewash, feel-good, nothing-burger inquiries where the people are always shafted. That is something, along with many other solutions that I will work towards.

Do you regret having said this comment?

Response: I do not regret saying a damn thing. I say what is required to be said – not what is popular. Unlike mainstream media, all my reporting has been correct. In fact, I am still awaiting the evidence where I have been wrong.

Fellow Candidate Peeni Henare says it’s a travesty you’ve been allowed to run in this seat, what is your response to that?

Response: Without so much as a conversation with me, Peeni has decided to adopt an unsustainable position. How long has he been in parliament? What exactly has he achieved beyond being a labour party lapdog and furthering the destruction of this country? I would suggest it may be two-tenths of stuff all. Perhaps he should be disqualified for being a globalist?

Do you affiliate to any hapu/iwi?

Response: I affiliate to everyone in this country who gives a damn and wants government brought under control where they facilitate and not dictate. Where they heal and not harm. Where we, the people do as we please without causing harm to another, void of government overreach and where we bring a screeching halt to mass immigration, which will soon make all this moot, if the current regime has its way – even united at that point, we would be the minority.

However, since this will no doubt be brought up many, many times, I shall provide the following:

I affiliate with Maniapoto through the Te Kanawa line. Thomas Te Kanawa married Nell Green. Nell had Stan and Nola. They adopted a girl who became known as Kiri Te Kanawa. Nola adopted my mother. There is a 5-year age gap between my mother and Kiri and a 25-year age gap between Kiri and her sister, Nola [now deceased].

Let’s add to that my affiliation with the Hita line through my stepfather Johnny Hita [His father George Hita [Kaikohe]].

Let’s even go a little further and search the Tainui beneficiary roll and discover my name on there, too, via Ngati Tahinga [Port Waikato] Whanagai through Inuwai Mckinnon.

Or the Macfarlanes taking me to Waitaha.

I was born and bred in Mangere and growing up we never experienced the utter bullshit we are all suffering today where we are all turned against one another because revisionist historians want to create a self-serving gravy train while the vast majority receive nothing except platitudes and unfilled promises.

New Zealand’s Grim Awakening: A Nation Betrayed, Bleeding, and on the Brink

While the world’s eyes are glued to the bloodshed in the Middle East, New Zealanders must wrench their focus back to the catastrophe unfolding on our own soil. Our nation is hemorrhaging – strangled by a collapsing economy, crushed under unpayable debt, and plagued by soaring homelessness as families are driven from their homes by obscene rates hikes. Hospitals are flooded with patients suffering from debilitating health issues tied to the COVID jabs many were forced/coerced into taking, sold as “safe and effective” but now exposed as a toxic lie. Crime is spiraling, with violence and theft turning our streets into battlegrounds. Yet, our politicians – both government and opposition – stand united in their betrayal, peddling poison pills like snake oil salesmen, swearing they’ll fix the mess they created while plunging us deeper into ruin.

The National-led coalition’s “fast-track” legislation is a grotesque sham, a thinly veiled rebrand of the globalist “Build Back Better” agenda. It’s a fire sale of our sovereignty, handing our resources to multinational vultures while Kiwis are left to starve. But don’t be fooled into thinking the opposition parties are your saviors. Labour and their allies play their tired script, screeching at every government move while praying you forget their own role in pissing away New Zealand’s future. They inflicted irreparable damage – shattering the economy, shredding personal lives, and leaving wounds that will fester for decades. Their lockdowns, mandates, and reckless spending turned thriving communities into ghost towns, and their legacy is the despair you see on every street corner.

The Middle East conflict isn’t just a distant tragedy – it’s a screaming wake-up call. New Zealand’s energy dependence leaves us vulnerable, at the mercy of global chaos. We must prioritize energy independence and security, but our leaders are too busy kowtowing to foreign interests to care. And then there’s immigration – a ticking time bomb. By importing waves of people who don’t share our values or sense of identity, we’re not just changing our society; we’re erasing it. The demographic shift is so drastic that, in a few short years, New Zealand as we know it will cease to exist. Our culture, our heritage, our way of life – gone, replaced by a fragmented, unrecognizable mess. This isn’t progress; it’s cultural suicide.

The numbers are chilling. National debt has ballooned to over $150 billion, with interest payments alone devouring funds that could rebuild schools or hospitals. Homelessness has surged by 40% in five years, with families living in cars while councils jack up rates by double digits to fund pet projects. Crime stats are a horror show – violent offenses up 20%, burglaries spiking, and police stretched so thin they can barely respond and the recruits? An absolute joke. And the jab-related injuries? Doctors are quietly reporting a surge in heart conditions, neurological disorders, and unexplained deaths, but the government’s response is to bury the truth and vilify anyone who asks questions.

This is New Zealand today: a nation betrayed by its leaders, bled dry by globalist agendas, and teetering on the edge of oblivion. The politicians – government and opposition alike – aren’t just failing us; they’re complicit in our destruction. They’ll keep smiling, promising salvation, while they sell our future to the highest bidder. Kiwis, it’s time to face the gut-wrenching truth: our country is slipping away, and if we don’t act now, there will be nothing left to save. Wake up, get angry, and finally choose to remove those parasites, before it’s too late.

The Deluge of Endless Content: How Noise Buries Truth and Stalls Justice

We’re drowning. Not in water, but in a relentless flood of content – podcasts, Substacks, X posts, TikToks, YouTube rants, and self-styled “exposés” that clog the internet’s arteries. Everyone’s got a hot take, a bombshell, or a “truth” they’re desperate to scream into the void. Each thinks they’re the prophet we’ve been waiting for. But this tsunami of noise isn’t waking us up – it’s paralyzing us, numbing our minds, and strangling progress. The cult of content for content’s sake is killing our ability to think, act, and achieve.

Look at the vaccine injury and death debate. The internet is a graveyard of stories, stats, and tearful videos about the jab’s harm. Posts pile up, podcasts multiply, and comments sections overflow with outrage. Yet, for all the digital ink spilled, what’s changed? The killing hasn’t stopped. The guilty haven’t faced justice. The sheer volume of content – repetitive, redundant, and often self-serving – creates a fog so thick it blinds us to the real fight: ending the harm and holding those responsible accountable. Instead of galvanizing action, this content overload breeds apathy, giving people the illusion they’ve “done something” by liking a post or sharing a clip. It’s not just ineffective – it’s counterproductive, turning a crisis into a circus.

This isn’t just about vaccines. The same pattern poisons every major issue. Take the so-called “climate change” narrative – a scam designed to strip people of control and rights under the guise of saving the planet. The flood of contradictory data, from doomsday predictions to skeptical takedowns, keeps the debate alive, not the truth. Real environmental problems like pollution, waste, and deforestation are sidelined while governments and corporations push restrictive policies that do little but tighten their grip. The endless content war ensures we’re arguing about carbon footprints instead of implementing obvious solutions: clean up the rivers, stop the clear-cutting, and end the waste choking our ecosystems.

Social justice is another casualty. Hashtags and viral videos drown out the hard work of policy reform and community organizing. Everywhere, content becomes a substitute for action, a feel-good placebo for those too comfortable to roll up their sleeves.

Worse, this flood births a new breed of self-anointed gurus. They’ve watched a YouTube video, read half a Substack, or skimmed a manifesto, and suddenly they’re experts on rights, freedoms, or the end of the world. These armchair revolutionaries spout jargon, sling buzzwords, and fracture movements with their egos. They don’t build bridges – they burn them, diverting energy from those grinding toward real solutions. Remember the “sovereign citizen” types who swore they’d dismantle the system with their arcane legal loopholes? Where are they now? Faded into irrelevance, their followers left disillusioned, their efforts a footnote in the fight for change.

The damage is real. Content overload dulls our cognitive edge, turning critical thinkers into passive consumers. It splinters unity, as every new “voice” competes for clout instead of collaborating for results. It fosters a culture where sharing a post feels like activism, where outrage is mistaken for progress. We’re not moving forward – we’re stuck, mesmerized by the glow of our screens while the world burns.

So, what’s the way out? Stop worshipping at the altar of content. Focus on outcomes, not noise. For vaccine injuries, the goal isn’t more tear-jerking stories or “shocking” stats – it’s justice. Demand criminal investigations. Push for policy changes. Hold pharmaceutical giants and complicit officials accountable. Make them feel the weight of their actions. Anything less is just more clutter.

This applies everywhere. For the environment, ditch the climate scam debates and target real issues: ban toxic dumping, protect forests, and enforce waste reduction. Social justice warriors need to know the detail of their subject matter, not just amplify performative rage. Gun rights defenders should focus on protecting or creating constitutional freedoms and dismantling restrictive laws that infringe on self-defense, not just sharing stats on defensive gun use. The pattern is clear: real change comes from relentless focus on tangible goals, not from flooding the zone with more data.

To break free, we must:

  1. Define the endgame. What’s the goal? Be specific – vague ideals don’t cut it.
  2. Act, don’t just amplify. Sharing isn’t doing. Get off the couch and into the fight.
  3. Ignore the noise. Clickbait and influencers are distractions, not solutions.
  4. Back the builders. Support those doing the real work – organizers, advocates, policy wonks – not the loudest megaphone.
  5. Demand accountability. If a movement or “leader” isn’t delivering results, call them out and move on.

The internet’s a tool, not a temple. Stop chasing likes, shares, and self-proclaimed prophets. Stop drowning in content for content’s sake. The world doesn’t need more noise – it needs results. Cut through the bullshit, focus on the fight, and don’t let the flood of words bury the truth. Progress isn’t a post. It’s a purpose. Get to work.

Had Enough? The Merciless Truth New Zealand Can’t Ignore

Are you done? Done with the gaslighting, the lies, the corruption that festers like an open wound? Are you sick of watching the medical industry peddle harm, pushing drugs and jabs while cancers and diseases skyrocket, poisoning our bodies with every breath, bite, and sip? Our air, land, and water are choked with chemicals, seeping into our food chain, our children, our very existence. And for what? Profit. Power. Control.

Have you had your fill of marches, petitions, submissions, and letters that vanish into the void of deaf ears? How many protests have you attended, chanting for change, only to see the same globalist agenda steamroll forward? I’ve been screaming it from the rooftops: this agenda is coming, whether you like it or not. Unless you snap out of your delusion that the same tired political parties – recycled faces, recycled promises – will somehow save you, nothing changes. They won’t. They’re complicit.

Look around. Organisations claim to be “for the people,” then herd you like sheep to vote for the very same suits who’ve gutted our country. The economy’s in freefall, lives are shattered, and division is sown through manufactured outrage and rewritten history. They pit us against each other while they feast. Your rights are being stripped – freedom of speech gagged by censorship laws, property rights eroded by predatory regulations, and bodily autonomy crushed under medical mandates. You’re told what to say, what to think, what to inject, all while they tighten the noose.

Are you tired of it yet?

Tired of watching our children become targets, their futures stolen, while parents are reduced to powerless bystanders? The state gets away with murder – literal and figurative – while inquiries, those feel-good nothing-burgers, deliver zero justice, zero accountability.

Feel the weight of your bills piling up? The sleepless nights, the depression, the despair as you scrape by? Meanwhile, politicians bask in lavish lifestyles, pocketing pay rises and perks for their treasonous loyalty to globalist masters. They don’t care about the homeless – those numbers only look “better” because they’ve defunded emergency housing and kicked the vulnerable to the curb. Work, they demand, but where are the jobs? The economy tanks under their useless policies, and yet they have the gall to raise rates, taxes, and costs, squeezing you dry until property ownership – your birthright – slips through your fingers. It’s all part of their plan to strip you of your freedoms, to leave you owning nothing, voiceless and powerless.

Cancers are spiking. Heart disease, infertility, chronic ailments – they’re not accidents. They’re the fallout of medical tyranny, of a system that profits from your suffering. Domestic violence is surging, crime is rampant, and why? Because people feel worthless, crushed under the boot of a government that thrives on their misery. Families are breaking, spirits are crumbling, and the parasites in power – backed by their police thugs and rubber-stamped by complicit courts – will never, ever, let go of that power willingly.

You know it. I know it. We’re sick of it. Sick of the betrayal, the lies, the pain. We know you’ve been let down, time and again, by those who promised change and delivered ruin. We know many of you are giving up, hearts heavy with despair, because every other party has failed you.

But, New Zealand Loyal will not. We stand for decentralization, a real and sound economy, less government strangling your life, protection for our children, and justice – real justice – with retribution for those who’ve bled us dry.

One vote. One day. It can change everything. Will you finally stand up, or will you let them win?
