After a historic win in Tāmaki Makaurau, Te Pāti Māori Co-Leader Debbie Ngarewa-Packer joins Martyn Bradbury for a decisive 1 on 1 in 10. They cover the party’s viral strategy, Labour’s silence, and why tactical unity on the Left is urgently needed in the face of voter suppression, public sector collapse, and right-wing hate. Ngarewa-Packer hits back at Winston Peters’ insults, outlines why slashing public services is “an act of violence,” and urges Labour to show courage and commit to transformative kaupapa like wealth tax, GST-free kai, and housing justice. She makes it clear: Māori-led solutions work. Whānau Ora is for everyone. And if the Left wants to win in 2026, it’s time to stop being scared of real change.
