  Ejected from parliament for not wearing a Tie

On the first sitting day of Parliament 2021 today, Waititi arrived without a tie. He argued that he was wearing Maori business attire with a Pounamu.

In the article (" Rawiri Waititi ejected from Parliament for not wearing a tie") written by RNZ The main person in the article is "Rawiri Waititi for not wearing a tie" and the New Zealand parliament, did you know Rawiri Waititi was the co-leader of the Maori Party?

In the article (" Rawiri Waititi ejected from Parliament for not wearing a tie") written by RNZ, The key event in the article is Rawiri Waititi not wearing a work tie but only a pounamu. This event took place in the North Island/ New Zealand, Wellington. The day the event was the 9th of February 2021

What I think about this article is kinda racist because they should just let the Māori  wear a Pounamu around their neck, then a tie, and why did they make such an unintelligent rule like that, what would happen if Trevor Miller (the speaker of Parliament!) Didn't wear a tie because he was coming late, then what would happen, he got adjective or there going to forgive him.

The place the article took place were in the North Island (New Zealand) in Wellington, Wellington is the capital of New Zealand, but before it, it was okiato/Russel, Wellington is the bottom of the North Island, Wellington takes its name from Arthur Wellesley, the first Duke of Wellington and the Victor of the battle of Waterloo (1815),
