Wilson learns invaluable
lesson off National
Tonight's Rotorua signing of the terms
of negotiation with Te Arawa will highlight that Margaret
Wilson has learned an invaluable lesson from National about
how negotiations should be conducted, National's Treaty
Negotiations spokesperson Georgina te Heuheu said
today.
"Last month the Minister tried to put her own stamp
on the complex processes but failed dismally. Announcing the
Crown's Rotorua Lakes offer via the media showed a total
disregard for basic negotiation principles and agreed terms
of negotiation.
"Tonight's signing is an acknowledgement
by Margaret Wilson that National's negotiation processes
formulated with Maori in the 1990s remain the most
appropriate way for settlement.
"Maori won't have a bar
of this Government's arrogance when it comes to Treaty
negotiations, and the Minister has learned that the hard way
with Te Arawa.
"While signing the terms of negotiation is
progress, there is still much to be worked out. Eyes remain
on Margaret Wilson as this is the first settlement she will
negotiate," Mrs te Heuheu said.

Spotify has to be one of the most interestingly futile mouse-wheels of 21st century capitalism. Run, run, run goes the Spotify mouse but it never, ever makes a profit. For reasons set out below, it maybe never will. But it won’t be for wont of trying. Reportedly, Spotify’s music library contains 70 million tracks and it adds 60,000 more each day. By some estimates it adds on average, one new track every 1.4 seconds. (No wonder it's so hard to keep up with new music.) Spotify has 345 million active users, and 155 million of them have been willing to pay a subscription in order to enjoy their music ad-free. Ads are not a major driver of company revenue...
