Te Pāti Māori president suggests MPs stand down
Update: 2025-11-03
Description
The war of words between Te Pāti Māori's leadership and two of its MPs has taken a dramatic step today, with president John Tamihere suggesting Mariameno Kapa-Kingi and Tākuta Ferris 'do the honourable thing' and step down. The bombshell social media post follows a move by the party's National Council to suspend Maria-meno Kapa-Kingi, who is MP for Te Tai Tokerau. John Tamihere's comments come as the executive for Te Tai Tonga - Takuta Ferris' electorate - launched a petition calling for Tamihere's resignation. Political reporter Giles Dexter spoke to Lisa Owen.
