From Checkpoint, 4:46 pm today

The rain thundered down and the winds whipped up this afternoon - but the Kiingitanga movement saved the real storm for the Government. Politicians from across the spectrum - including the Prime Minister Christopher Luxon - have been at Turangawaewae Marae for Te Koroneihana today.The annual coronation celebrations are not typically particularly political - but this year, representatives did not hold back in their challenge. Political editor Jo Moir is in Ngaruawahia and speaks to Lisa Owen.
