Well, the local rags may be horrified that someone's got the gall to suggest there's an element of racism in NZ, but in Ireland the papers are touting Bic Runga as the new Norah Jones.

i agree - i mean compared to australia we outrank them. Also NZ was the first country in the world to give her indigenous persons the vote. and as Sir Apirata ngata quoted in 1940 "no other country than New Zealand has treated her indigenious people so well"
