    Questions over why Mariameno Kapa-Kingi was expelled from the Maori Party - with her case being heard in the High Court at Wellington today

    Questions over why Mariameno Kapa-Kingi was expelled from the Maori Party - with her case being heard in the High Court at Wellington today


    The MP was expelled from the party in November - as the party accused her of misusing her budget.

    She was reinstated on an interim basis by the Court in December - but the full hearing is underway today.

    Her lawyer Mike Colson claims the allegations don't stack up - as the co-leaders had budget issues.

    He says it's ironic for the party to make the claim, when the co-leaders were in the same situation.
