MODERATORS
That's bullshit. They would have obviously preferred not to be punished and prevent from participating in the parliament like they were elected to do.
This punishment will backfire on NACT though. It will point out how racist they are and how much they hate the indigenous people of this country. Their embrace of white supremacism and MAGA identity politics is in full display.
In that universe they would perform the Haka and stay in Parliament.
