Te Pāti Māori's electorate-only strategy draws Labour warning

Te Pāti Māori will contest electorate seats only, urging supporters to party-vote Labour or the Greens. Labour's Māori campaign chair Willie Jackson warned a backlash could cost the Māori seats. Labour will not return the favour. Co-leader Debbie Ngarewa-Packer said the party was using its MMP right to focus on the Māori roll.
