The (British) Colonial Office was confused as to why section 71 was never invoked by Governors Browne or Grey, even though it appeared an obvious answer to the growing crisis in the early 1860s but failed to issue orders for it to be implemented.
The problem was that section 71, which remained on the statute books until 1986, was never implemented, even though it provided an obvious way for the Crown to engage with the Kīngitanga and other Māori communities in a peaceful way.

Yup, they're called "Kick bars". Obviously too many public servants with their hands full of secret papers having to use their feet to push the button. Now we've all been forced to get briefcases so we can put secret papers down safely and use our hands to push the buttons.
I have similar feelings. Have to say I enjoyed my last stint of jury service. We couldn't decide sentencing, but we got the chance to say whether that conversation should even apply. I think a good chair ("foreman") makes a difference.
Oh bugger that sounds like a real drag. The long covid thing is a real worry. Hope you're getting better.
Yeah we do. And if you'e immunocompromised you get the good ones. :-)
I borrowed them from the Wellington Public Library via the Libby app.
