Satisfaction the Privileges Committee stood its ground over Te Pati Māori's viral haka in Parliament.
The harshest sanctions in Parliament's history have been handed down, with co-leaders Debbie Ngarewa-Packer and Rawiri Waititi suspended for 21 days.
Hana-Rawhiti Maipi-Clarke's been suspended for seven.
Privileges Committee Chair Judith Collins told Mike Hosking the committee was almost universally appalled by the demonstration and six months’ worth of hearings.
She says the committee's work was worth it, and it's about time Parliament realised the public is appalled by the antics.
