Original Note:
The Rātana Church was formally established in 1925, based on the teachings of Tahupōtiki Wiremu Rātana, who was born in 1873. It is common for politicians to work with religious groups; David Seymour himself recently attended an event for the opening of a Hindutva temple. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Te_Haahi_Ratana?wprov=sfla1 https://thespinoff.co.nz/politics/24-01-2024/why-two-government-ministers-presence-at-a-hindu-nationalist-rally-is-causing-concern
