>>511083176The Maori woman in parliamnet is in relation to the reality that the brits showed up in the 1800s. Declared the country theirs and started marketting a bright and profitable future to the british in hopes of enticing brits to migrate and settle.
Due to 1800s britain been a complete class nightmare. With most average families stuck in lives of serfdom and unable to move up the social/income ladder.
Brits started arriving en masse under promises of cheap fertile land. Yet a great proportion of it had not been agreed with the Maori, and outside of the defined and agreed settlements the Maori weren't too happy about the speed of change.
The brit migrants weren't happy having felt lied to. Stuck in small overcrowded settlements with limited food no ability to develop the land as they were promised. The british elites back in england scared that they would lose their cashcow started offering Muskets etc. to the Maori in exchange for land hoping they would wipe themselves out with tribal warfare.
Sort of worked, but also Maori started fighting the british. Back in england the elites lobbied parliment to start sending british soldiers to just straightup slaughter Maori who defied or protested against land seziures.
We run a deal with the BRICS contries developed by government agencies called Genes on Legs. Something that isn't avaliable to local farmers or indsutry. Whereby we sell prime export dairy milking cows for dirt cheap and inseminate them with pre-sexed female twins. breaking an NDA here folks.
Meaning when they arrive on the boat in China they get 3 cows for the price of 1. NZ cattle stock has been selectively bred for 150 years, creating unique breeds that produce huge volumes of milk etc. Our local farmers and industry aren't offered such luxuries and as a result hundreds of thousands of male born calfes are knocked ont he head as soon as they are born and thrown in offal pits.
