    Te Pati Maori's warning yesterday's haka was only the beginning

    Te Pati Maori's warning yesterday's haka was only the beginning


    MP Hana-Rawhiti Maipi-Clarke was suspended from Parliament yesterday - for initiating a haka during a heated first reading of the Treaty Principles Bill.

    The national hikoi opposing the bill is in its fifth day - marching today through Rotorua to Hastings.

    Te Pati Maori co leader Rawiri Waititi is there.

    He calls for all Maori people to be proud - and to not assimilate or be subjugated.

    Waititi says Te Pati Maori will use every tool its kete has to offer to support its korero in a debate or wananga.
