A vote in New Zealand’s parliament was suspended and two lawmakers ejected Thursday amid debate over a controversial proposed law redefining the country’s founding agreement between Indigenous Māori and the British Crown.

A fiery display by 22-year-old Hana-Rāwhiti Maipi-Clarke, New Zealand’s youngest MP, went viral after she ripped up the controversial Treaty Principles Bill during a rousing haka in Parliament.

New Zealand's parliament witnessed a powerful protest as opposition MPs performed a haka to oppose a controversial bill. The bill aims to redefine the Treaty of Waitangi, the country's founding document with the Māori people.
