All Blacks are erasing the beginning of this haka where TJ says “toitū te mana o te whenua, toitū te mana motuhake, toitū Te Tiriti o Waitangi” - a great example of how corporations are happy to commercialise te ao Māori while erasing Māori political aspirations.

Today I was ejected from the house for my response to the first reading of the Treaty Principles Bill. I just want to clarify something.

I will not apologise for what is the truth. David Seymour has continually misrepresented the Treaty. End of story, Kia Ora and Good night.

@pacificraft So grim.

[Pip Adam @PipAdam]

@salty_kiwi Oh. Wow. Okay. I thought I was wrong. 31 minutes to go then.

Parliament suspended after floor-shaking haka by Te Pāti Māori

[Tim Murphy @tmurphyNZ]

Speaker suspends the House and clears the public galleries during vote on the Treaty Principles Bill after Te Pāti Māori leads Greens/Labour MPs who stand to join in a mass haka against it.

[Jack McDonald @tautokai]

Keep shutting down that colonial institution with the power of haka.

“Willie puts the question whānau want to know right to Tama Potaka – ‘How can the Minister of Māori Development look our people in the eye and tell them that he is an advocate for māori rights, when he has done nothing to stop the #TreatyPrinciplesBill?’ @WillieJLabour #nzpol

[Welly Wahine 🍉 @salty_kiwi]

David Seymour seriously suggesting that the only reason anyone thinks Te Tiriti is a partnership between Māori and the Crown is because of lawyers who "see a contract."
What a bellend

Where is the Prime Minister? (said with complete lack of surprise).

This is such an astounding talk by Torrey Peters - it has rocked the foundations of how I write & think about fiction. Highly recommend to any writers. Thanks to my friend & amazing writer Lena Trichy for insisting I listen to it with no distractions.
