Politics first

Hone Harawira is refusing to help any constituent who isn't on the Maori roll. Obviously he can only get a party vote from someone on the general roll so they are no use to him. I can understand his reasoning but in his shoes I would be assessing whether I could help somebody based on what their problem was, not what roll they are on. Maybe I am the fool.

Bear in mind that Hone Harawira is first and formost a Maori Activist and his political role is very much secondary to that even though we, the taxpayers, provide his income.

Therefore his actions are totally predictable.
