David Seymour’s interpretation of the Treaty of Waitangi is out of context

Professor Margaret Mutu contests ACT MP David Seymour’s version of Tiriti O Waitangi, how his interpretation is out of context.

Professor Mutu “But he’s deliberately stripped it of all the context. So if you were to put the whole sentence in there, you get a completely different interpretation.

So when he’s talking about Tikanga, what article 3 was about was that Maori would have full access to their culture. the ways of being of the English, bearing in mind that the context was that in article 2.”
