Three Maori MPs suspended over 'intimidating' haka

Three Maori MPs, including Hana-Rawhiti Maipi-Clarke, have been suspended for performing a haka during a New Zealand parliament sitting. The haka, a traditional Maori dance, was in protest of a bill aiming to redefine the country's founding treaty with Maori people. The protest caused widespread outrage and drew attention to indigenous rights in New Zealand. The suspension sparked debate over cultural expression and parliamentary rules, with the suspended MPs maintaining their commitment to prioritizing Maori interests.
