From Lately, 10:46 pm on 11 April 2019

Mana whenua of Ihumatao near Auckland Airport say they're prepared to put their bodies on the line to stop the development of houses going ahead on the land. The group behind the campaign is Save Our Unique Landscape (SOUL) and they want the government to buy the land or "mandate a process that comes up with an outcome everyone can live with." We speak to SOUL co-founder Qiane Matata-Sipu.
