Jan Tinetti: Labour MP accuses Education Minister Erica Stanford of using derogatory language in the House - Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive

Labour's Jan Tinetti says consequences for rule-breaking in the House should apply across the aisle.

Tinetti claims Education Minister Erica Stanford called her a 'stupid b....' after a fiery exchange during Question Time. 

Stanford withdrew and apologised. 

Last week, Labour's Willie Jackson was forced to leave the House when he wouldn't apologise for calling David Seymour a liar. 

Tinetti says it's fair to also call out Stanford.

"Willie got thrown out of the House by the Speaker for that. So, you know, there is a consequence to that, that's why we have the rules and that's why we have consequences."
