I don’t think many people appreciate the significance of swearing allegiance to the state or the Queen, etc. Swearing allegiance to “the people of Aotearoa�? is a pretty good move on Nandor’s part. I’d love to see this find its way into a court in some way.

Of course, ultimately, we should be getting our MPs to affirm the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and swear their allegiance to the entire human race and planet earth.

Hmmmph… the rest of the MP’s DON’T swear allegiance to the people of Aotearoa? Explains a lot when you think about it. – respectfully BJ

Of course still other MPs swear allegiance to other countries and have Parliament pass retorspective legislation electing them to Parliament…
