Speaker 1 (00:00):
Barrisoper, senior political correspondent.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
I Barry, Good afternoon, Heather Barry.
Speaker 1 (00:03):
Did you hear Eric has said in the House.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
No, I didn't. I had a look at it and
I was watching it. It was basically Web got up
and knarked on her. Certainly wasn't Jantinetti that made the complaint?
Speaker 1 (00:17):
Yea?
Speaker 2 (00:17):
And Barbara Kruger was sitting in the seat today rather
than Jerry Brownly Erica Stamford withdrew and apologized. So I
think she probably did well female dog. But I think,
you know, having watched the debate between those two this afternoon,
I think Jantinetti was the loser because Erica Stamford had
(00:39):
it all over her when they were talking about bus
routes being canceled.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
Okay, hey, Ginny Anderson, what she done?
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Well, you know you'd have to ask, was Ginny Anderson
born yesterday? She was? She obviously doesn't know her recent
history when it comes to.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
You're talking about what she said yesterday.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
Well, still on a panel with Mark Actual on the
Hosking Show, she was scathing at Chris Luxen for allowing
the Treaty Principal's Bill to go to a Select committee
ever listen to it.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
He is absolutely disrespecting our parliamentary process by putting a
bill to select committee that he has no intention of
voting for at the second reading. He's wasting our time,
he's wasting taxpayers money, and he's making an absolute joke
of the system. And that sort of behavior, that sort
of behavior ilicits huckers in the House and ilicits fifty
(01:30):
five thousand people coming to the front steps of Parliament.
That's what I'm.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
Sorry, oh, please.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
Disrespecting parliament.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
They did exactly the same thing did Labor In two
thousand and five when they were in coalition with the
New Zealand First Party. They supported the It was called
the Principles of Treaty of Wititngi Deletion Bill and it
was taking references to the Treaty out of legislation. Now,
that was the second time it was before Parliament and
(02:00):
chose you the hypocrisy and all of this. The first
time it came before parliament, Labor voted it down and
said it's dreadful. The second time it came before parliament,
of course, they were in coalition with New Zealand First,
so they changed their tune and I went back and
I had a look at the handsides of Nanayamahuta, who
(02:20):
of course was very prominent on the front bench of
the Labor Party at the time. She said that sometimes
we do things that we do not like, but we
need to do them so that we can truly appreciate
what we have. She said she'd given a speech at
the time and said that the Labor lead government wasn't
prepared to send a signal to Maldi, but she said
(02:40):
the current government formation means that we've got an agreement
and part of that requires them supporting this bill. This
was Winston Peters Bill taken up by Doug Wollaton to
go to a select committee, but no further. She said,
they welcomed debate on the issue. Debate should be welcomed
(03:01):
and that's why they were allowing it to have a
full term before a parliamentary.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
So let me get this right. So Labor in two
thousand and five, it was two thousand and five. Labour
in two thousand and five agreed with the minor coalition
partner to take a treaty Principal's bill only to Select
committee and no further. That's right, But when National agrees
with its Minor Coalition Partner Act in two thousand and
twenty three, YEP to take a treaty Principal's Bill Select Committee.
(03:30):
It's disrespecting Parliament, is okay?
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Jenny should just loop through the recent history of the
Labor Party. Okay.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
Cool. Hey, we've got our first non binary and pa
Giving has made their maiden speech tonight. And when is that?
Speaker 2 (03:43):
They're maiden speech, Demania. You've got to get it right here.
It's in about an hour's time. Benjamin Doyle, he of course,
took over the list seat from Darling Tana. He's a
thirty two year old. He lists himself of Napui Scottish descent.
He uses the pronouns they them an heir. That's the
(04:07):
maldi pronoun I think, he said part of a speech.
Let it be known in this house that trans lives
are tango, he said. It's a day to reflect on
the tireless work of our trans leaders and elders, the
icons who have fought and who have organized and existed
(04:27):
in the face of enormous vitriolic hate, A hate, he said,
I might add, that was imported by at her colonialism.
So it's all that's the problem. And he said that look,
he's proud to be queer, binary or non binary. He said,
it means that his agenda, agenda is expensive and fluid,
(04:50):
are not the suffocating binary. And he said, if you
confuse his dress with what goes on, he said, be
more written by the contents of his mind than his wardrobe.
And today, no doubt he'll be turning up in a
pretty flashy outfit as he has done on the past.
