Description: Te Pati Maori has apologised after after one of its MPs attacked Labour's Tamaki Makaurau candidate on Instagram. Takuta Ferris posted a photo of Labour MPs and volunteers posing with a Peeni Henare billboard, saying it was mind-blowing to see "Indians, Asians, Black and Pakea" campaigning to "take a Maori seat away from a Maori". Te Pati Maori's co-leaders have asked Mr Ferris to remove the post and apologised for any hurt it caused. Political reporter Lillian Hanly spoke to Lisa Owen.
