Clarke, has gone viral once again after tearing up a controversial bill and performing the traditional Maori haka during a parliamentary session. But who is this young leader, and what led her to rip up the legislation?

New Zealand MP Hana-Rawhiti Kareariki Maipi-Clarke is once again in the news after she ripped up the indigenous treaty bill in the Parliament.
