Quote of the Day

Mind you Destiny deserve to be rubbished when they try stuff like this. Stuff reports:

Destiny Church has launched a hostile take-over battle for control of one of the country’s more respected culture organisations, the Maori Women’s Welfare League.

Hannah Tamaki, wife of bishop and founder of Destiny, Brian Tamaki, is running a slick photo-shopped campaign in a bid to become national president of the league and its nearly 4000 members.

It is causing outrage in the league, whose first patron was the legendary Princess Te Puea Herangi (1884-1952), and was led into political pre-eminence by land rights campaigner Dame Whina Cooper (1895-1994).

Hannah Tamaki says in her campaign material that her husband “is a direct descendent” of Te Puea.

Te Puea had no children.

Doh.
