The hikoi that started in Cape Reinga and has made its way down the country arrives in Wellington today.

While many have taken part in various stages of the hikoi, tens of thousands of people are expected outside the Beehive today, as a protest against the Government’s policies impacting Maori, including the Treaty Principles Bill.

Te Pati Maori have been leading the push back against the Government, notably with a viral haka stunt in Parliament during the Bill’s first reading that has garnered global attention.

The party’s co-leader, Debbie Ngarewa-Packer, joins us today on The Front Page to discuss the hikoi, that viral haka, and why they are fighting back so strongly against this Government.
