OPINION: At a time when farmers are advocating for less government spending and no new taxes, the dairy sector is rightly concerned by ACT's new immigration policy.
When the Bill had its first reading in the House, the level of debate the Maori Party members were capable of rising to was a loud, intimidating haka, designed to derail voting on the Bill and disrupt the legitimate parliamentary process.
Act’s David Seymour noted, “I heard name calling, I heard hysteria, I saw a haka. I didn’t hear any argument”.
Shane Jones added, if Maori Party MPs won’t respect the rules of the House, they shouldn’t come to Parliament.
Your old mate reckons the attendance roll suggests they usually don’t!
