Māori leaders say they've lost an ally in the ousting of Rob Campbell as chair of Health NZ / Te Whatu Ora.

He was sacked over comments he made on LinkedIn, where he criticised National's Three Waters policy as a thin disguise for dog-whistling on co-governance.

The Health Minister says she doesn't have confidence Campbell could remain politically neutral, and he is very clear about why he thinks he was sacked.

Ngātiwai Trust Board's chief executive Hūhana Lyndon spoke to Kim Hill.
