The Te Pāti Māori MPs began a haka during a vote for the legislation that would reinterpret a 184-year-old treaty between the British and the Indigenous people of New Zealand that some say is discriminatory.

New Zealand's parliament witnessed a powerful protest as opposition MPs performed a haka to oppose a controversial bill. The bill aims to redefine the Treaty of Waitangi, the country's founding document with the Māori people.
