An Indigenous New Zealand lawmaker was thrown out of New Zealand’s parliament for performing a Māori haka in protest against what he said were racist arguments. Rawiri Waititi told lawmakers in the chamber that he was forced to listen to a ‘constant barrage of insults’ directed toward Indigenous people. Speaker Trevor Mallard told Waititi to sit down, but instead he performed the haka, a traditional dance or challenge accompanied by a chant. ‘Order. The member will now leave the chamber,’ Mallard told Waititi, which he did along with his co-leader, Debbie Ngarewa-Packer

The government claims that English is the official language of Atearoa the first waka i think to land in Atearoa was called Atearoa hence the legal name of this country no white man called it that like they say on x on x they claim white man was the first to name it Atearoa what a lot of trash talk

The haka is a agressive act of course he will be removed indiginous people have no logic
What haka is this? It's not kamate
It's not kapa o pango
HOW DISGUSTING THIS GROUP ARE
Why is he wearing a hat inside…
Old boy really thought he did something there…
Should have stayed out and built a new career.
Title should read "colonizers try and enforce their will over indigenous population with utter disrespect and silence their representative"
Narcissistic racist Nitwitt
They aren't indigenous
How DISRESPECTFUL can Maori be, this is not their Pa they are speaking on, and to be wearing a hat inside is a further NO! NO! Plus highly unacceptable and outright rude, they need to restore some higher form of acceptable manners in Parliament and show at least some respect for the position they hold. They make our parliament look like some third-world picnic ground🦍
NZ uses indigenous culture as performance
It's very weird how a certain group always manages to barge into a country and then create laws to govern that country without getting input from the original people.
That walk out was powerful
Is everyone from New Zealand LGTV?
Shameful that the traditional culture of that country is treated like that in their parliament
Scream in parliament, gets kicked out, racism
He performed HAKA ON HIS OWN LAND that they should own and not British colonizers
They are making a mockery of our parliament. And i am maori.😮
