    Labour's Maori caucus has endured a gruelling 2023, but MPs are confident they're ready for battle


    Prime Minister Chris Hipkins he has launched their campaign in Auckland today, at senior MP Willie Jackson's marae in Mangere.

    The 13-strong team has already endured departures of Kiri Allan and Meka Whaitiri, as well as Jacinda Ardern's resignation affecting Labour's approach to Maoridom.

    MP Peeni Henare told the Herald there's also concern about the level of racism towards candidates and the community.

    He says while it's nothing new, he thinks it's just more heightened, due to rhetoric from the right.
