A vote in New Zealand’s parliament was suspended and two lawmakers ejected Thursday amid debate over a controversial proposed law.
The bill redefines the country's founding agreement between Indigenous Mori and the British Crown .
Under the 1840 Treaty of Waitangi, tribes were promised broad rights to retain their lands and protect their interests in return for ceding governance to the British . The bill would specify that those rights should apply to all New Zealanders .
Detractors say it threatens racial discord and constitutional upheaval.
The live broadcast of Parliament ’s proceedings was cut and Brownlee ordered the public be removed before the vote resumed. He suspended Maipi-Clarke , 22 , from Parliament for a day . The bill will proceed to a public submission process before another vote. Seymour hopes for an outpouring of support to change Luxon 's mind about vetoing it. The proposal will shortly roil Parliament again. Thousands of protesters are due to arrive in the capital, Wellington , on Tuesday for what is likely to be one of the largest race relations marches in New Zealand’s history..
