    Given that PM Luxon is attending ToW events, just not at Waitangi.
    Given that some Maori have told the PM to stay away from Waitangi, and
    the PM has previously announced his intentions, it looks like some
    Maori are always looking to take offense at any decision the PM in
    respect of Maori involvement.

    Yes of course they are. Disingenuous is the least of it, deliberately confrontive more likely.
    There is no greater driver than greed. Having said that, the greed is with a tiny minority of Maori, the majority are fine people.
