Jack says “Māori wards are not just a political issue. They’re about justice, equality, and honouring Te Tiriti o Waitangi. We need seats at the table, not just as a token, but as partners.”

Jack Karetai-Barrett is 15 years old and understands Māori wards, so he rode to the capital city of Wellington to say why NZ ought to keep them.
