1 00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:02,759 Speaker 1: Barris pasing your political correspondence with us A Barry. 2 00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:07,600 Speaker 2: Good afternoon, Heather. I've been brow beaten. I have over 3 00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:10,400 Speaker 2: the past twenty four hours, but you know I'm used 4 00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:10,680 Speaker 2: to it. 5 00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:11,200 Speaker 3: Have you? 6 00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:12,800 Speaker 1: Have you resigned yourself to the outcome? 7 00:00:13,119 --> 00:00:14,840 Speaker 2: What a wonderful man Donald Trump is? 8 00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:21,760 Speaker 1: Yeah? No, not that, oh wonderful man. Poor human being. 9 00:00:22,079 --> 00:00:24,280 Speaker 1: He's one, though, isn't he. It's quite funny, isn't it. 10 00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:25,760 Speaker 1: How are you feeling well? 11 00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:27,080 Speaker 2: It seems all the lea you've been to the. 12 00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:29,120 Speaker 1: Cardiac guy, just to check that everything's okay in there. 13 00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:32,120 Speaker 4: Okay, Now, listen, the Treaty Principal's Bill has made it 14 00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:34,800 Speaker 4: to Parliament and I imagine that this got quite heated today. 15 00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:38,000 Speaker 2: Yes it did. And of course protesters are out here 16 00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:41,640 Speaker 2: in Auckland and in Wellington and that's in preparation for 17 00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:45,600 Speaker 2: the Hikuoi next week and that will happen probably on 18 00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:48,760 Speaker 2: the day that it's first debated. I think it's next Thursday. Yeah, 19 00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:52,159 Speaker 2: it'll be first debated in Parliament. But the point that 20 00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:54,520 Speaker 2: David Seymour has been making, and I think it's a 21 00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:57,400 Speaker 2: good point that the White Tangi Tribunal have been able 22 00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:00,240 Speaker 2: to develop principles that have been used to justify the 23 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:04,839 Speaker 2: actions that are contrary to the principle of equal rights, 24 00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:10,280 Speaker 2: and that's co governance and stuff like that. And either 25 00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:14,760 Speaker 2: Parliament can define them, which is what Parliament's role should be, 26 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:18,920 Speaker 2: and certainly not the Waitangi Tribunal. And that's the whole 27 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:22,480 Speaker 2: point of him trying to spell out what these principles are, 28 00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:27,280 Speaker 2: because they're written into many pieces of legislation and they're 29 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:32,000 Speaker 2: based on interpretation of others as opposed to the lawmakers themselves. 30 00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:36,160 Speaker 2: And I think that, in fact, is a good way 31 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:40,880 Speaker 2: to proceed. Basically, he says, the bill won't alter the 32 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:43,600 Speaker 2: treaty itself, it will be used to assist the interpretation 33 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 2: of the legislation. And I say here here to that. 34 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:49,640 Speaker 2: The Maori Party, though it attempted to have the bill 35 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:53,400 Speaker 2: withdrawn as soon as it was tabled in Parliament this afternoon, 36 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 2: here's co leaders Rowery Way to Tea and Debiino Riwa Packer. 37 00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,600 Speaker 5: I seek leave to move a motion without notice and 38 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 5: without debate that this House honest to teity, await honey 39 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 5: and withdraws the Treaty Principal's Bill. Thought, is there any 40 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:13,040 Speaker 5: objection there appears to the objection the introduction of the 41 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:16,919 Speaker 5: Treaty Principal's Bill without consulting King Charles. 42 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:19,720 Speaker 4: Is a sign of disrespect and brings the House into disrepute. 43 00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:26,200 Speaker 6: What what's the point that she's making is that you 44 00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:29,400 Speaker 6: know the Crown should have been informed about I'm sure 45 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:31,600 Speaker 6: King Charles would be right in the front of a 46 00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 6: seat wanting to know exactly that what. 47 00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:37,080 Speaker 2: Was in the Treaty Principal's Bill. But the point that 48 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 2: was made by Jerry Brown and is absolutely true that 49 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:43,079 Speaker 2: there is a speech from the Throne at the start 50 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:47,000 Speaker 2: of every parliamentary session and the last one last year 51 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 2: was no exception, and the Treaty Principal's Bill was mentioned 52 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:52,919 Speaker 2: in that. And if the Queen was sorry, the King 53 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 2: was interested, he would have been able to talk to 54 00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:59,120 Speaker 2: his Governor General here and got the low down on it. 55 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:01,960 Speaker 2: And don't know whether there is taking that opportunity or 56 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:05,680 Speaker 2: taken the opportunity to do that. But look, there was 57 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 2: a lot of tension in Parliament today. The speaker, your 58 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:11,840 Speaker 2: old mate Helmet, he was there making a lot of 59 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 2: noise in the public glories. I understand that, and he 60 00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:19,480 Speaker 2: left sort of yelling and making faces at ministers in 61 00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:26,080 Speaker 2: Parliament David Seymour, though he's now launched an online campaign 62 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 2: now that the bill's been introduced, he's sitting at his 63 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 2: desk in Parliament and in a video he tells viewers 64 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 2: that every key we will have the chance to make 65 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 2: a submission on the bill, which is absolutely right. I 66 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 2: mean after it's debated next week, then it'll be open 67 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 2: to a Parliamentary Select Committee and the public will get 68 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 2: the opportunity to make submissions. He said. The committee process 69 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 2: will be open within days of the bill being debated 70 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 2: next Thursday. 71 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 3: Ever, listen, everyone will have the chance to express their 72 00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 3: opinion on this parliamentary bill without being shouted down or 73 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 3: told their view doesn't count. The bill's critics say that 74 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 3: this debate will be divisive, but I think they underestimate 75 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 3: New Zealand's ability to have constructive conversations on fundamental issues 76 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 3: like democracy and equal political rights. For my part, I 77 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:18,320 Speaker 3: think each of us is united by universal humanity, the 78 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 3: same inherent dignity for each person. That's what's driven all 79 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 3: the good movements in human history. 80 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:27,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, and so it's a very slick campaign and what 81 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:30,160 Speaker 2: he's hoping to do is to get people to respond 82 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:31,839 Speaker 2: to it. I mean I got an email about it 83 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 2: today and to support the bill. So he's trying to 84 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:38,719 Speaker 2: sort of go, if you like, above Parliament and to 85 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:40,960 Speaker 2: appeal to the public to have their. 86 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:42,680 Speaker 4: Say really quickly. Barry, we don't have a lot of 87 00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 4: time but seek Trump. We haven't talked enough about ka 88 00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:48,240 Speaker 4: Rudd just got busted. Kevin Rudd, Ambassador to the US 89 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 4: for Australia, just got busted with a whole bunch of 90 00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,040 Speaker 4: nasty tweets about Trump. At least this time we're more prepared, 91 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 4: right oh. 92 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:56,799 Speaker 2: Now, Winston Seas were absolutely prepared. And he told Parliament 93 00:04:56,880 --> 00:05:00,159 Speaker 2: that this afternoon there was a funny side by to 94 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,360 Speaker 2: it that Trump did well as we know of the 95 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:08,360 Speaker 2: Latino vote, but Peters wasn't doing well with Ricardo Mendiz March, 96 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,640 Speaker 2: who hails from Mexico and who barracked him in parliament. 97 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 5: Ever listened to this. 98 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:17,839 Speaker 7: This is not the first time that I am subjected 99 00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 7: to this kind of pretty or verte type of behavior, 100 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 7: and I take personal offense to my hanches the current 101 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,560 Speaker 7: and note that it is incredibly unstatements like from the 102 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:29,279 Speaker 7: Deputy Prime Minister, the acting Prime Minister. 103 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:32,600 Speaker 5: We cannot have these members so sensitive. All I said 104 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:36,280 Speaker 5: was in Spanish. All I said in Spanish was goodbye, 105 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 5: my friend. But he's offended by that. Oh, for goodness sake, 106 00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 5: we have a very diverse parliament. 107 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:44,279 Speaker 2: There's a bit of Trumpian behavior goes on with Winston 108 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 2: at times. 109 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 4: Interesting, interesting, very so for senior political correspondent. Actually, Winston's 110 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 4: with us just after five. 111 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 5: For more from Hither Duplessy Allen Drive.
