Royals told to send a prince to NZ to be Governor General

From Morning Report, 6:43 am on 21 November 2019

A challenge of a different kind was put to Prince Charles at Waitangi yesterday - to lend one of his sons to Aotearoa to be a governor-general.

The request came from Ngāti Hine kaumatua, Waihoroi Shortland.

Some thought it a cheeky suggestion but Mr Shortland told our Māori news director Māni Dunlop he was being serious.
