The NZNO have announced a nationwide strike for December over its pay dispute with Health NZ, who have put a 1 per cent cap on pay rises. The Hīkoi mō Te Tiriti and Treaty Principles Bill remain front and centre in the media, with the impacts of the Hana-Rawhiti Maipi-Clarke-led haka continuing to reverberate around the country and the world, and with the arrival of the Hīkoi in Pōrirua last night. The march on Parliament tomorrow is expected to be one of the biggest protests in the history of the country.
