The campaign is in response to Ms Clark reckless behaviour in the largest confiscation of the 21st century the foreshore and seabed. Ms Clark also made the decision for New Zealand to vote against declaration on the rights of indigenous peoples that 144 other Nations voted in favour.<\/p>\n<p>During the foreshore and seabed confiscations Ms Clark succumbed to bias Anglo Saxon\u00a0opinion and didn&#8217;t honour our founding national document the Treaty of Waitangi.\u00a0Over 50,000 patriotic New Zealanders marched on Wellington demanding our national \u00a0Treaty be honoured while Ms Clark lacked the courage to meet her constituents\u00a0and hid in the Beehive. A political\u00a0Anglophile Ms Clark&#8217;s entire political career was based on the\u00a0suppression of Indigenous rights like her decision to raid the Urewera at Ruatoki in 2007.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_9185\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-9185\" style=\"width: 630px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/mananews.co.nz\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/heathersimpson_320.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-9185\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-9185 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/mananews.co.nz\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/heathersimpson_320.jpg\" alt=\"Heather Simpson\" width=\"630\" height=\"421\" srcset=\"http:\/\/mananews.co.nz\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/heathersimpson_320.jpg 630w, http:\/\/mananews.co.nz\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/heathersimpson_320-300x200.jpg 300w, http:\/\/mananews.co.nz\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/heathersimpson_320-570x381.jpg 570w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 630px) 100vw, 630px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-9185\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Heather Simpson<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>During the foreshore and seabed controversy many sympathetic\u00a0Labour MP&#8217;s \u00a0were being \u00a0blocked and ignored by Ms Clark&#8217;s assistant Heather Simpson. Simpson an unelected government official was ruthless and had too much influence\u00a0over the governments unjust decision. Heather Simpson is leading \u00a0Ms Clark campaign for\u00a0the Secretary General of the United Nations and will be paid using\u00a0tax payer money.<\/p>\n<p>Ms Clark being appointed head of the United Nations does nothing for New Zealand as Ban Ki Moon the current Secretary General has done nothing in the interests of South Korea. It doesn&#8217;t put New Zealand on the international stage it&#8217;s\u00a0simply career advancement for Ms Clark.<\/p>\n<p>In terms of world affairs Helen Clark is unsuitable as the Secretary General of the United Nations.\u00a0How can someone become the leader of an organisation designed to respect the principle of equal rights and self-determination of peoples when her entire political careers has been to undermine those very rights. What happen&#8217;s when the world is in crisis\u00a0and the ambassadors of former colonial nations can&#8217;t get past Heather Simpson because she deems them as lesser nations but has an open door policy towards the Anglo sphere nations.<\/p>\n<p>The time has come for the people to draw a line in the sand and\u00a0teach future Prime Minister&#8217;s\u00a0there is a price to pay for\u00a0not honouring your agreements.
