To politics now, and we're welcoming Te Pāti Māori co-leader Rawiri Waititi to First Up this morning, to join our regular catch-up with political leaders. Te Pāti Māori has been in the headlines this year, with Meka Whaitiri leaving Labour to stand for the Māori Party in Ikaroa-Rawhiti.
And with polls suggesting they could be potential 'king-makers' at this year's election. And just last week the party announced a young candidate to contest the Hauraki-Waikato seat, which has been held by Labour MP Nanaia Mahuta for many years. Te Pāti Māori co-leader Rawiri Waititi joins Anna Thomas.
