From First Up, 5:55 am on 22 August 2019

Protestors or protectors, are preparing for a four-hour hikoi to Jacinda Ardern's electorate office Mt Albert this morning.The group occupying the Ihumatao land near Auckland airport have repeatedly called on Ms Ardern to come and visit - something she has so far refused to do. This morning they'll march to her office and present a petition that has been signed by more than 20,000 people calling on her to visit. Pania Newton is leading the group and joins me on the phone now.
