Thousands rally at N.Z. capital to oppose controversial bill, support Māori rights
A large crowd, which police estimated at more than 40,000 people, gathered outside New Zealand’s Parliament in Wellington to oppose a bill that opponents have decried as a bid to reinterpret a founding treaty and set back Māori rights. New Zealand’s prime minister has said the bill won’t become law.
