Hui-ā-Iwi at Tūrangawaewae Marae w/ Takutai Kemp: Rāhina 22 January: 2024

For our first catch up with Te Pāti Māori of 2024, Rosetta spoke to Takutai Kemp about the hui-a-motu held by the Kiingitanga at Tūrangawaewae Marae on Saturday. The hui had a turnout of around 10,000 people, Māori and non-Māori, all uniting to protest the current government’s efforts to challenge Te Tiriti o Waitangi. Rosetta and Takutai spoke about what action plan has been taken from the hui in order to protect Te Tiriti and Māori. They also spoke about leaked documents posted by Rawiri Waititi which show intentions from the government to erase Te Tiriti o Waitangi, and Te Pāti Māori’s labelling of the government as ‘overpromising’ Finally, they spoke about South Africa’s case against Israel in the International Court of Justice and Te Pāti Māori’s vocal support of this.
