All New Zealanders are born equal...

New Zealand has won an award for our commitment to improve the lives of people with disabilities. Brilliant - except for some reason the representative of our head of state, who is selected by birth, gender, and religion, decided to say this:

"New Zealand is committed to the principle that everyone is born equal in dignity and worth."

- Anand Satyanand, Governor-General of New Zealand

...but some are born more equal than others, it seems.
