Show Notes
Te Pāti Māori co-leader Rawiri Waititi has been handed one of Parliament's most serious punishments.
Speaker Adrian Rurawhe has 'named' Waititi and suspended him from the House for 24 hours after he appeared to break a court ordered suppression last week.
Waititi wasn't in the House as the ruling was made- he was in Auckland for his Fashion Week appearance.
ZB senior political correspondent Barry Soper says this suspension doesn't reflect the seriousness of his actions- and won't mean much to him.
