"
#NewZealand MPs who performed
#haka in parliament given unprecedented punishment
#TePātiMāori co-leaders and youngest member to be temporarily suspended from
#parliament after performance protesting controversial bill"
The bill in question (the
#TreatyPrinciplesBill) wanted to reinterpret the
#TreatyOfWaitangi (1840), which upholds
#Māori rights
The bill was defeated
I think the proper response to a bullshit punishment for protecting
#MāoriRights is a lot more hakas
