Banning Hangi

Prime Minister bands hangi,

racist thing to do,

the backlash is not funny,

silly little Jew.


(Hangi - a traditional Maori meal cooked in the ground, a practice Maori have used for more than 170 years)

9th place

Congrats on your win, Murray! I'm not aware of the political climate where you are, but this seems like a completely unnecessary thing to do. Only hatred could motivate it. Blessings, Rhonda
