Chris Hipkins: Labour Leader discusses compulsory tikanga Maori, Carmel Sepuloni, and the Government's plans for Waikeria Canterbury Mornings with John MacDonald

    • Politics

Labour Leader Chris Hipkins joined John MacDonald for their regular catchup on Canterbury Mornings. 

The compulsory inclusion of tikanga Māori in law studies has ignited debate. Does Hipkins feel it has a place in our legal system? Should its study be compulsory? 

He was quick to make an assessment of the Government’s plan for a 'mega-prison' out at Waikeria and voice his views on Mark Mitchell being out of his depth.  

And finally, will he confirm what Carmel Sepuloni was up to whilst on leave?
