New Zealandās Parliament suspended three opposition lawmakers, Rawiri Waititi, Debbie Ngarewa-Packer, and Hana-Rawhiti Maipi-Clarke, over their haka performance in protest of a controversial bill. The bill, supported by the conservative government, sparked backlash from the MÄori community, with critics claiming it represented an anti-MÄori agenda. This protest, the most severe disciplinary action against lawmakers in New Zealandās history, signals a growing debate over MÄori cultureās role in public life and the nationās push for Indigenous rights.
