MP Mariameno Kapa-Kingi says the court has “brought justice to Te Tai Tokerau voters” when he ruled her expulsion from Te Pāti Māori “unlawful”.
Kapa-Kingi was this week officially been reinstated to Te Pāti Māori, after a High Court decision that ruled her suspension and subsequent expulsion was “unlawful”.
She’ll be speaking to reporters shortly from Parliament.
The MP took to social media earlier this week to celebrate the verdict, saying her intention in bringing the case was not to incite division, but “seek clarity and ensure the processes we hold ourselves to – particularly those grounded in tikanga, are honoured”.
