b'There are two important historical dates in NZ, these are 1835 and 1840. With Captain Cook\\u2019s arrival in 1769 he put New Zealand firmly on the world map. This then started a chain of events that to this day have yet to be satisfactorily understood or resolved by the elected representatives of this country. King William the Fourth, 1765 to 1837 - the King of the British Empire, on learning that New Zealand\\xa0 was possibly the last hidden land to be found and that it was the only country he knew of that did not have snakes, wanted to give it special status. In doing so he wanted to be the first Monarch to give a land that had been recently found its own independence and in doing so they would have his protection. This was a world first. No other Monarch had ever offered the indigenous people of any land their independent nationhood. That during 1835, thirty four Maori Chiefs in the North of New Zealand came together and with King William\\u2019s support, created a new flag and this was important, because the world of that era had certain Laws that were based around the \\u2018raising of flags.\\u2019 That if a flag was raised on a landmass - that (from an Imperialist viewpoint) signified that, this land was now under the control of the country raising the flag. With NZ\\u2019s presence now on seafarers charts, they began arriving in the early 1800\\u2019s as whalers, missionaries, traders for flax, wooden spars, as well as ex-convicts released from the penal colony of Australia, including adventurers from other nations. This brought about a calamitous impact on the resident Maori population who were here. Resulting in exposure to, alcohol, sex and disease, also dishonesty including firearms, and new technologies that basically devastated the tribal system that had been in place for centuries. This was a time of upheaval for Maori. Missionaries had also arrived to convert them to Christianity The French, Dutch, and the British all had an interest to colonise New Zealand. The race was on. These seafarers from the Northern hemisphere continued to arrive and began violating rights in unaccountable, uncontrollable ways including violence such as the raping of native woman as no jurisdiction existed over them to control their actions. NZ was becoming a lawless land. One such statement was that a particular port Koror\\u0101reka was called the \\u201chellhole of the Pacific\\u201d. However, King William lV back in Great Britain, as the reigning Monarch wanted to control his subjects from criminal actions in a land where he had no jurisdiction at the time. This resulted in King William lV commissioning James Busby, a British resident in New Zealand to draw up a Declaration of Independence, so that the native resident population could establish their own laws and govern themselves and this land independently. He also had learned that NZ had no snakes and this impressed upon him that this was a special country. He gave the native chiefs three flag designs to choose from to initiate their \\u2018nation hood\\u2019 - and the Maori Chiefs chose their National flag. Called the United Tribes Flag. The reason for the \\u2018Flag\\u2019 was that even in those days, International Law at the time stated that a country had to have \\u2018a flag\\u2019 to identify a Nation. The Declaration of Independence was duly signed by up to 34 Maori chiefs on the 28th October 1835, at Waitangi in the Bay of Islands and a \\u2018new independent nation was born\\u2019 upon the raising of the chiefs chosen, King William lV royally proclaimed flag. There are differing versions of this. (In March 1834, HMS Alligator, was on hand (and fired the 13-gun salute) at the first hoisting of the first national flag of New Zealand, at Waitangi, Bay of Islands. This flag became known as the United Tribes Flag). * The only flag of this land that has ever been \\u2018royally proclaimed.\\u2019 The new independent nations flag (which determines the jurisdiction of the land ) the Waka putunga Nu Terreni had a black primbrae around the saint George cross in the left top quadrant, signifying the British monarchs protection on the land, (a white primbrae, signifying the British monarchs protection upon the seas, admiralty law.) This founding document,(the D.O.I) is the only document which has an associated flag that has never been lowered to change jurisdiction The birth of our nation of New Zealand is 28th of October 1835. Therefore the contention is that the Treaty of Waitangi ( TOW ) is not the founding document. However, King William IV died in 1837 and thus was not alive to pursue the ideal of seeing NZ retain its independence as per the signing of 1835. The Con Dan in his research contends that Colonial house which is the East India Company, and the New South Wales Government of the time was/is a franchise. That it is an extension of the \\u2018City of London\\u2019 # and they wanted to colonise New Zealand in order to sell land to migrants. Captain Hobson with his many cannoned ship, was commissioned to sail to New Zealand, to have a formal Treaty signed. Which he duly carried out on the 6th of February 1840. For what reason did the Maori sign a treaty even though they already had independence? Evidently this way, the British Crown# could establish colonial authority over an independent nation. Yet Maori signed the Treaty. Note that Colonial House knew they could not lower the true jurisdictional Flag as it was the Kings \\u2018royally proclaimed flag.\\u2019 So a counterfeit flag was created that was similar to the DOI flag, but had 5 pointed stars not eight pointed, as in the blueprint of the chosen royally proclaimed flag,( the DOI) the Declaration of Independence. The \\u2018counterfeit flag\\u2019 was lowered and the Union Jack was raised on the 6th February, 1840 that is now known as Waitangi Day. Dan states it may as well have been a flag of Donald Duck, (because it wasn\\u2019t the United Tribes Flag). He asks, what \\u2018lawful basis\\u2019 can the lowering of a counterfeit flag end the jurisdiction of the \\u2018founding flag?\\u2019 This is the reason for the Petition for a Royal Commission of Inquiry into the flag referendum. (listen to the interview). New Zealand is still supposed to be an \\u2018Independent\\u2019 country, going back to the signing of that 1835 document. Dan maintains that \\u2018We\\u2019 were, and right up until this moment are, under the lawful jurisdiction of the Declaration of Independence. We never legally lost it. The question then is, was the 1840 Waitangi Treaty jurisdiction lawfully executed ? If not then, then they didn\\u2019t and never have had any jurisdictional right or legal entitlement over this land. Dan* encourages you all to do your own research and when you listen to the interview - it gives cause for more questioning and research - however he does mention that there are some recent law cases here in NZ that have completely validated his statement - that these court cases will become more common knowledge over the coming weeks and months. Watch this space, but first, listen to this whole interview. \\xa0 Dr Manuka Henare describes the events around 1835 and on to 1840. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RzpUfKu-7PI&feature=emb_logo\\xa0 https://www.maorirangersecuritydivision.com/ \\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0 \\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0 **** Other references in this interview include two well known Maori spiritual leaders in 1870 and 1916 who when wanting to practice living together in a very large tribal family were arrested by the NZ authorities for wishing to live peacefully on the land of their birth.
