The hīkoi mō te tiriti, which started as a rally against the ACT Party’s Treaty Principles Bill, is set to arrive at Parliament tomorrow, in the capital, Wellington.
Over the duration of the hīkoi, thousands have joined the march in support so far, with an estimated 30,000 set to be at Parliament tomorrow.
For our weekly catch up with the ACT Party’s Simon Court, News and Editorial Director, and Monday Wire Host, Joel, spoke to him about the hīkoi, and how the party has reacted to this event.
They also talked to Simon about the Treaty Principles Bill passing its first reading in Parliament last week, with members of Te Pāti Māori, the Labour Party Party, and Green Party, performing the haka as a form of protest to the bill, with members of the public gallery also joining in, resulting in Parliament being suspended for an hour.
But first, they talked to Simon about the hīkoi.
