Cool.
he looks like a feather duster
Just more proof that New Zealand (and Australia) are still essentially just self governing British Dominions if their people are required to swear allegiance to another country's King 👎👎!!
I came for the yhe racist comments, and being here seeing all the comments about England im not shocked.. in the least
It was just a performative spectacle to get attention, disrespecting the institution he was elected to serve in. And of course in the end, he took the oath to get his salary…
BEAUTIFUL! Applause for the government there for not being threatened and thus embracing this man's wish and right to honor his culture on his special day.
If we let these maories lead the country, we will all be wearing grass skirts. These guys are an embarrassment to NZ
Top class virtue signaling
❤🤍🖤
Ah the ceremonial dance before they cannibalize their enemies ❤
what a bunch of clowns
THIS IS A BUNCH OF BS, SHOULDN'T BE ALLOWED ON THE FLOOR 😠👎😠👎😠👎
After everything that’s happened, it’s fair to reclaim his people’s dignity in any way. We haven’t forgotten and we will continue to rise stronger from the ashes.
Long live the Maori.🫶
❤Māori
Somebody most definitely needs a brand new hair stylist. Really that looked like a birds nest..
thumbnail had me fooled, thought it was going to be a granny doing gospel praise stuff.
Performative and unnecessary
A war dance though? Couldn’t be something more chill? Just sayin. Imagine debating this guy on issues.
Who wouldn’t take that seriously
🤡
See, this is why no one takes you seriously. A defeated people's swan song then?
0:27 are those three members of New Zealand's parliament on the left wearing what I think they're wearing around their necks?
