Post Freshwater poll on diversity issues

The Post has some interesting results on some issues questions asked by Freshwater. The net agreement for each statement is:

• There should be a referendum on Māori co-governance, to end the confusion and let every New Zealander have a say: +31%
• Government departments should be known by their English name, not their Māori name: +23%
• There should be quotas to ensure enough women are represented in parliament and government: +5%
• There should be quotas to ensure different ethnic groups are represented in parliament and government: -7%
• Road signage should be written in Māori as well as English: -13%
• There should be more co-governance with Māori in government decision-making: -17%

So much more support than opposition for a referendum on co-governance and referring to government departments by their English name.

Mild net support for a gender quota for Parliament and mild net opposition to ethnic quotas.

Moderate net opposition to bilingual road signs and more co-governance.
