New Zealand's Māori King Tuheitia dies aged 69 | BBC News 

Illiteracy amongst the ‘borgs 🤦🏻

Ikr😢

How can you steal from a doctor that is trying to save the life of a member of your family?????...... News from the Rotorua Daily Post: "Child, 2, dies after Rotorua driveway accident, family member steals from doctor trying to save child's life." As hospital staff tried to save the life of a 2-year-old boy run over in a Rotorua driveway, a family member swiped a doctor's two phones and a bank card and went on a spending spree. The child died a short time later but Melissa Herewini (A MAORI) had already taken the bank card to four stores in Rotorua and bought alcohol, food, petrol, phone credit and cigarettes.

@@jjll9244 And the place name has fricken euro signs in it (€) for some weird reason

Well if you actually watched the video instead of reading the title you would find mike roberts talking about ideas spawned from meetings such as independent māori parliament 👍

Mistook that for being part of his name when I read the title...

🤭😢

New candidate for a good metal band name.

@@zapfanzapfansame! 😂 god damn, the unpaid intern was probably still hungover huh

Its NOT the Man its the "office" of king. An invention and a copying of Maori to Britain. A colonial hangover!!

Stop talking bs not everything revovles around Britain get over yourself ​@@DW_Kiwi

@@DW_Kiwi Rest in peace Kiingi Tuheitia

What a Tosser.​@@DW_Kiwi

@@AuntBou see above. They did not have Kings and Queens before the POMMIE INVADERS arrived.

Because as we all know, people don't make typos.

Sounds like a dope rapper name

Really, it's that your contribution 😑

So was his title.

Well you obviously had your head in the sand mate, considering he's the 7th Monarch for the people of the land & its never been a secret!!

His coronation was broadcast live in public TV. His not a secret and was never hidden away so I guess you had your head in the sand for the past 16 years

Try being a Better New Zealander if you are one Or get out of the way..

so sorry to hear that. Was it the diesage 69 or 68 that got her?

I thought this was a joke until I saw it, what the actual fuck

From my Mob to your Mob Nothing But Love and Respect. R.I.P King

HES THE ONLY KING OF AOTEAROA AKA NEW ZEALAND YOUR A DISRESPECTFUL VISITOR WITH A PIECE OF PAPER FROM THE GOVERNMENT WHICH MEANS NOTHING..JUST REMEMBER THAT!

@@whetuification 😂😂😂

You must be European 🤣 go back to the UK where you belong

You maoris can´t even raise your own children properly.

Who said we all agree on it? If only you knew - a lot of us don't recognise the Kingitanga, much like we don't recognise the Crown. That bs was started 7 generations ago, we didn't agree to have it. Stop putting that bs onto all of us thank you very fkng much.

@@MissPerpul "Stop putting that bs onto ALL of us" Arn´t you "one people"? Oh, I understand. Only when there is something good for you in it.

😂😂GET EDUCATED😂😂 HES THE ONLY KING OF AOTEAROA AKA NEW ZEALAND & THE 7TH MONARCH OF HIS LINE THAT COME FROM THE LAND.. CHARLES IS NOT OUR KING THE WESTMINSTERS WERE NOT OUR MONARCHY EITHER, THEY WERE COLONIALISTS..GET IT RIGHT!!

@@whetuification Who was the king of the maoris 300 years ago?

@@whetuification There you go. Another breach of the Treaty, Cant trust Maori activists and the ignorant

@@whetuificationfacts !!! 💯

@@whetuificationThey want Māori to bow down to their European king but as Māori we have no ties with them 🤣 the only thing that stopped Māori from killing them was the signing and peace of the treaty of Waitangi otherwise half these Europeans today probably wouldn’t be alive due to Māori possibly killing their ancestor/ the lineage theyre from

HES THE ONLY KING OF AOTEAROA AKA NEW ZEALAND GET IT RIGHT!! THE ENGLISH WERE INVADERS NOT OUR MONARCHY.REMEMBER THAT OVERSTAYER !!

The child died a short time later but Melissa Herewini (A MAORI) had already taken the bank card to four stores in Rotorua and bought alcohol, food, petrol, phone credit and cigarettes. New Zealand Hearald news headline 29 May, 2024 “Raglan man Simon Terence Hamiora Kereopa drags partner outside naked, pours boiling water over her“ Kereopa ( A MAORI) dragged her outside through the kitchen door by her arms, down the kitchen steps and onto the ground. He then grabbed the kettle, which was just inside the door, and poured the boiling water over the victim - who was naked at the time - directly onto her skin. As he did so, Kereopa told her “you deserve it, and that’s what you get”. He then told her he would reboil the jug and pour it on her face. She ran to seek help from her sister but she was asleep, before running into her daughter’s room and hugging her. Kereopa then went into the room and said, “once you let go, I’m burning your face”. Judge Stephen Clark noted Kereopa’s 17 family violence convictions, eight of which were against the current victim. The man responsible, Simon Terence Hamiora Kereopa, was today jailed for the incident, his ninth conviction against the victim during their 20-year-plus relationship. News 24 headline: "Shock over Maori infant brutality" They have been scalded, burned with cigarettes, raped, had bones broken and been beaten unconscious, sometimes to death. Horrific cases of Maori youngsters - some under two years of age - being tortured, abused and KILLED BY MEMBERS OF THEIR OWN FAMILIES Among the grisly headlines that have dominated the nation's media over recent weeks are stories of a 28-month-old Maori girl in a coma after suffering severe head injuries, a broken arm, cuts, bruises and cigarette burns over most of her body. The toddler's 52-year-old grandmother was being held in prison on assault charges. Police in the central North Island town of Carterton are investigating the death a week ago of 23-month-old Maori girl Hinewaoriki Karaitiana-Matiaha who was sexually abused, scalded with hot liquid and beaten before being taken to hospital by relatives. The child, who was put in the care of her grandmother by the Child, Youth and Family Service after consultations with the toddler's family just short of her second birthday, was dead on arrival at Masterton Hospital late on Sunday, July 23. And last week, a coroner in the east coast town of Tauranga found that two-month-old Marcus Te Hira Grey died from a brain haemorrhage following a severe beating by his father. These cases follow the recent release of a report into the gruesome killing last April of four-year-old James Whakaruru, beaten to death by his stepfather for failing to call him Dad. The stepfather had been jailed once for assaulting the boy, but the youngster endured a lifetime of horrific beatings, despite being under the eye of various child welfare agencies, and his hellish existence went unnoticed. The proportion of extreme cases of brutality towards children among the Maori population - which makes up about 15 percent of New Zealand's 3.8 million citizens - is far higher than for any other ethnic group.

As a Maori I don't recognise either of them.

@@MissPerpulyou must be part European 🤣 must be that white side speaking

​@brendonwilson3830 or maybe he's just not a cultist about his heritage..?

Whakatapua te hohepe o te rangi ngangapare waimere?

It was such a simple task. The real bummer is that the BBC paid someone or something to write that, then they paid another person or thing to proof that. Fails at every stop - and nobody notice but the lot of us. Sad.

His full name was TE KINGI TUHEITIA POTATAU TE WHEROWHERO TUA WHITU

No there isn’t. And the British haven’t started changing all their place names back to their Roman equivalents. Make of that what you will.

@@rubytuesday1345 Exactly my point. These modern day Maori will try anything to get more money off the taxpayer funded New Zealand Government and appointing a King or Queen with all the trappings that apply is exactly that.

Obviously you have no idea how and why the Kīngitanga movement was created over a century ago. Research before you start mouthing off about something you know jack shyt about!!

@@ttamihana7879 A typical response from someone when their beliefs have been questioned is to react as you have. To actually investigate a topic before making a decision on what to believe would make common sense and save disappointment when someone who has points out the stupidity of the false belief that is in question. In this case, the Maori have decided to copy the British, and it is as simple as that. Next thing you will probably believe is that the Maori Csar and Putin, the self-decleared King of Russia, are related. You may as well believe something like that, as well as the uniqueness of a Maori King. Like another New Zealander commented, this comment is not about the person but the stupidity of even thinking the Maoris have any factual history of having a ruling Monarch system, as that system is confined to Europe, or in the Maoris own words, "...pakeha (white pig ) invaders...". Why elect a "King" of "Aotearoa" when New Zealand has one ? Was it because the MAORIS lied when they signed the Treaty of Waitangi to stop the inter-tribal Maori Wars and form one Nation of all Maori and European people under the British system of government?

​@ttamihana7879 sweetie you copied us 😂

What don't blame medical system for his death he was responsible for his own health choices . Eat rubbish smoke drink etc .

​@@kimkay2196GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT!! OUR JUST SHUT YOUR MOUTH😂😂😂

Wrong. Go learn your history dhonkey

@@RK-P-zh3nn I´m from France. Was he what you call a hori king?

THIS!!!!

have you ever been there? difficult is not the word I would use

​@@nikkster01 frequently. Ngä€ruawä€hia is not even a word, why would anyone use it?

As opposed to King Charles, who is clearly very involved and has first hand experience with life in New Zealand for the once or twice every decade that he visits.

Why not? Not white enough? And what makes a king these days anyway, is it who avoids the most taxes?

@@OhCrumbs96 as opposed to an institution of 1000 years standing Kiingi movement is a made up nothing with no power purpose or point

No, Just tha​t Maori never had Kings. This was introduced by a small number of tribes from one area for political purposes back in the 19th century.@@anfrac3700

This is very true ​@@ourpeople-g7r

Similar to Queen in England - a unifying symbol in a nation of chaos

I am a new zealander and I have never heard of this guy. Maybe he was a unifying symbol for maori. But I'm pretty sure most didn't even know that there was a maori monarchy. Also new zealand isn't a nation in chaos.
