Te Pāti Māori has joined international calls for King Charles to apologise for the horrors of colonisation on his coronation day.
Co-leaders Debbie Ngarewa-Packer and Rawiri Waititi, as well as party president John Tamihere, are signatories to a joint statement, alongside indigenous and republican representatives from 12 Commonwealth countries.
The statement says the people colonised by Britain suffered from centuries of racism, oppression, colonialism and slavery, and calls for a formal apology and reparations.
Ingrid Hipkiss spoke with Te Pati Maori co-leader, Rawiri Waititi.
