1
00:00:01,240 --> 00:00:04,800
Speaker 1: Listen. They're not brought broadcasting this thing on Instagram, so

2
00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:07,520
Speaker 1: it's just just ninety people on Facebook Live. And also

3
00:00:07,720 --> 00:00:09,600
Speaker 1: we have to talk about the Tom Phillips update today.

4
00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:11,280
Speaker 1: Right now it's thirteen away from five, Barry, so for

5
00:00:11,360 --> 00:00:14,960
Speaker 1: senior political correspondence with us Barry, Good afternoon, Heather. Did

6
00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:16,360
Speaker 1: you make of what happened in parliament?

7
00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:20,200
Speaker 2: Well before that Roali White Tea on the Facebook feed.

8
00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:23,959
Speaker 2: I think it is announcing their review of the party.

9
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:26,920
Speaker 2: The other thing is or reset sorry of the party.

10
00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:29,200
Speaker 2: I think it was reset in parliament this afternoon. Actually,

11
00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:32,760
Speaker 2: but he said, and I quote, since they've been in parliament,

12
00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:36,919
Speaker 2: they've encountered the vileless humans to ever walk the Spenawa.

13
00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:41,400
Speaker 2: So that's the flavor of the of the reset of

14
00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:44,519
Speaker 2: the Maldi Party. But look, there was bedlam in Parliament

15
00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:47,400
Speaker 2: again today, no doubt about it. The former broadcast Renny

16
00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:50,720
Speaker 2: Kayper she was giving her maiden speech, or about two

17
00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:54,200
Speaker 2: more than half of it was in Maldy. It went

18
00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:57,360
Speaker 2: on for more than twenty minutes, when the rules specifically

19
00:00:57,480 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 2: say that a maiden speech should be known more than

20
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:03,600
Speaker 2: fifteen minutes. So the bell was ringing for five minutes

21
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:07,880
Speaker 2: last five minutes of his speech, and I've got to

22
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:11,680
Speaker 2: say after it, she came to the floor when they

23
00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:15,280
Speaker 2: burst into a waiata in the public galleries, and that

24
00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:18,600
Speaker 2: was by permission of the speaker. Clearly she came to

25
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:24,000
Speaker 2: the barefooted, to the center of the debating chamber and

26
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:27,520
Speaker 2: sort of led the waata. And at the end of it,

27
00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:31,240
Speaker 2: and you can see it quite clearly, she went into

28
00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:34,679
Speaker 2: hukka mode. So even though they may have had an agreement,

29
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:36,720
Speaker 2: the party knew full well.

30
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:37,920
Speaker 1: I think it was orchestrated.

31
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 2: I've totally orchestrated. And you only have to look at

32
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:44,120
Speaker 2: the video to see that. Here's the end of the

33
00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:46,440
Speaker 2: waata and the Speaker's response to it.

34
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:56,279
Speaker 3: Not that the guarantee was that would not be taking place.

35
00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:13,239
Speaker 3: The House is suspended.

36
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:20,680
Speaker 2: Nobody took any notice at all. Quite disrespectful, Oh, totally disrespectful.

37
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,400
Speaker 2: I've never seen anything like it in Parliament, honestly in

38
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:26,680
Speaker 2: more than forty years. The House, as you say, was

39
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:28,919
Speaker 2: suspended for more than half an hour. When it resumed,

40
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 2: the Speaker talked about that agreement.

41
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:34,600
Speaker 4: No one member is more or less elected than anyone else,

42
00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:38,640
Speaker 4: and the time that the House allocates for anyone to

43
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:41,800
Speaker 4: speak in here is by agreement. And when we have

44
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:44,760
Speaker 4: people coming into the house who decide they are not

45
00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:48,520
Speaker 4: going to abide by their agreements, then they put themselves

46
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:51,840
Speaker 4: in a contemptuous position. The behavior in the gallery was

47
00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:54,920
Speaker 4: contemptuous and as my intention over the next couple of

48
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:57,760
Speaker 4: days to find out whether or not that was by

49
00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:02,400
Speaker 4: agreement with any party inside this house, because people go

50
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 4: on to Mariah all over the country and respect the protocols.

51
00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 4: We have a protocol here. It is our teacuner. That

52
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:11,880
Speaker 4: Teakner is based, as I said before, on agreement.

53
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 1: It's true, though, how do you rate his chances though,

54
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:16,079
Speaker 1: that they're going to actually face up to him a

55
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:17,280
Speaker 1: year we orchestra Well, no.

56
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:19,799
Speaker 2: You only have to look at the videos I've done

57
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:23,960
Speaker 2: several times now to see that Ireny Carpara knew, kuiper

58
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:29,400
Speaker 2: knew exactly what was expected following the waiata because she

59
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:31,560
Speaker 2: went into hukka mode, and if they look at that

60
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:36,120
Speaker 2: closely enough was orchestrated from the floor of the house.

61
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:41,320
Speaker 1: What's hukka mode, Well, it's you know, she's pulling the pookanna, pulling.

62
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:44,920
Speaker 2: The poocanna and waving her arms like the hakka are

63
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:47,400
Speaker 2: you so? She will certainly doing it. So here's what

64
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 2: the new MP Copra had to say.

65
00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 5: Greetings everyone, I'm not going to stand here and tell

66
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:58,000
Speaker 5: you about the impacts of colonization on far No hapu

67
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 5: Ewe and even on me. That story is well documented.

68
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 5: One only has to turn to the handsard to see

69
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:08,360
Speaker 5: in plain black and white how this government and past

70
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:13,320
Speaker 5: governments have perceived our people. Instead, I will speak of resilience,

71
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:17,520
Speaker 5: the resilience of Mari, the resilience that has carried us

72
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:22,440
Speaker 5: through generations of struggle and survivals. We are the culmination

73
00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:27,960
Speaker 5: of dreams, of purpose, of hard work and intention. We

74
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:32,159
Speaker 5: are here by design. I've broken barriers, but now I

75
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:36,040
Speaker 5: choose to break cycles. I've covered stories and now I

76
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:37,800
Speaker 5: choose to change them.

77
00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, well there you go.

78
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:43,159
Speaker 1: Okay, listen. The Michael Forbes investigation has stated the bleedingly obvious,

79
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:46,000
Speaker 1: hasn't it that the Prime Minister's office should have been told?

80
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:49,719
Speaker 2: Well, just to refresh your listener's memory, Michael Forbes was

81
00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:54,680
Speaker 2: the press secretary in Chris Luckson's offers who was essentially

82
00:04:55,040 --> 00:05:00,960
Speaker 2: recording videos of sex workers in Wellington, and the police

83
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:04,520
Speaker 2: had investigated it. They decided not to charge Michael Forbes,

84
00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:08,400
Speaker 2: so it was kept within the police precincts and the

85
00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:12,600
Speaker 2: office of the Prime Minister wasn't alerted. Now the Department

86
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:15,800
Speaker 2: of Internal Affairs, they've done an investigation into it. They

87
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:19,400
Speaker 2: say that there should be no surprises and that's absolutely right.

88
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:21,760
Speaker 2: I mean, you can't have a press secretary even if

89
00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:23,159
Speaker 2: the police decide not to charge.

90
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:26,520
Speaker 1: Well, why, I mean there already is no surprises rule. Well,

91
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 1: that there should be a no surprises rule. It's that Andy. Andy,

92
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:33,760
Speaker 1: Andy did know well, no, but.

93
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:37,720
Speaker 2: It wasn't Andy that was running. Basically, Richard Chambers came

94
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:40,039
Speaker 2: into the job of November last year, so it wasn't

95
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:41,680
Speaker 2: that this year. Was it last year?

96
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:44,680
Speaker 1: Well, I think Andy was in charge when when the

97
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:48,440
Speaker 1: hookers took Michael's phone of a night or however long

98
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:51,320
Speaker 1: Andy was in charge. Anyway, the cops should have told

99
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 1: the Prime Minister's.

100
00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:55,600
Speaker 2: Absolutely, and I'd want to know if I was the

101
00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:59,040
Speaker 2: Prime Minister and somebody in my office was filming hookers,

102
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,040
Speaker 2: I'd say, look, I have to know.

103
00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:04,240
Speaker 1: This lord, honestly, Barry, thanks very much, appreciate it. Barry
