1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:01,920 Speaker 1: Parliament returns to day to the business of the Maori 2 00:00:01,960 --> 00:00:04,400 Speaker 1: partying their privileges sanctions when we left it. Of course, 3 00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:06,480 Speaker 1: in Adduman had been called so the budget could get 4 00:00:06,519 --> 00:00:08,360 Speaker 1: its day in the sun. Chris Bishop's the Leader of 5 00:00:08,360 --> 00:00:11,039 Speaker 1: the House, of course, and he's with us. Morning, Good morning. 6 00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:13,240 Speaker 1: The debate. Is it going to be any less messy 7 00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:15,200 Speaker 1: now that we've had a couple of days to cool down? 8 00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:16,480 Speaker 1: Or are we just going to have one hundred and 9 00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:18,479 Speaker 1: twenty three people saying one hundred and twenty three different 10 00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:20,400 Speaker 1: things moving amendments and then one hundred and twenty three 11 00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:21,600 Speaker 1: people saying something different. 12 00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:24,360 Speaker 2: Well, let's wait and see them. Let's hope. So I mean, 13 00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:26,239 Speaker 2: I just want the debate over and done with. Franklin, 14 00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:27,840 Speaker 2: I think it's time to get back to some real 15 00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:30,320 Speaker 2: issues facing the country. We know we need to deal 16 00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:33,839 Speaker 2: with the issue, but let's face it, this is a distraction. 17 00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:36,080 Speaker 2: We've got an economic economy that we need to start 18 00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:38,919 Speaker 2: growing again, and so my hope is that we can 19 00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:41,040 Speaker 2: deal with the issues swiftly at parliaments afternoon. 20 00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:44,720 Speaker 1: Will there be filibustering? Do you reckon? Well? 21 00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:46,519 Speaker 2: I suspect that there will be a bit of it 22 00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:48,239 Speaker 2: from Labor and the Greens. I mean they say they 23 00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:50,560 Speaker 2: are not going to, but who knows. I mean, one 24 00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:53,960 Speaker 2: thing is that I moved on Tuesday that we Parliament's 25 00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:56,560 Speaker 2: meant to finish at six o'clock on Thursday, so the 26 00:00:56,560 --> 00:00:59,440 Speaker 2: debate would stop if we hadn't voted, and so I said, well, look, 27 00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:01,639 Speaker 2: let's just keep going onto Thursday night and Friday if 28 00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:04,280 Speaker 2: we have to, because we just need the issue dealt with. 29 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:06,800 Speaker 2: And Labor and the Greens are not supportive of that, 30 00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:09,320 Speaker 2: so we're sort of It tends to indicate that they're 31 00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:11,600 Speaker 2: going to have a I don't know, I think plavorit 32 00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:13,160 Speaker 2: of politics with it, which is a bit frustrating. 33 00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:15,120 Speaker 1: Okay, what I'd understand about Labor, Why are they busy 34 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 1: defending the Marory Party? I mean, what what's it to them? 35 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:20,679 Speaker 2: Well, that's really a question for them. I mean, at 36 00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:22,520 Speaker 2: the end of the day, these guys are all peas 37 00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:24,400 Speaker 2: and a pod, Labor, the Greens to party Maria, and 38 00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:27,280 Speaker 2: they're going to line up together and raise taxes and 39 00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:30,640 Speaker 2: you know, put the economy into recession again. So they're 40 00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:32,840 Speaker 2: all there are all much of a muchness in some 41 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 2: some senses. So and I think, you know, Chrisipkins knows 42 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,400 Speaker 2: that ultimately, if he gets some numbers together, it'll have 43 00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 2: to be with the married party. So and I think 44 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:41,639 Speaker 2: that prospect should scain is illinder. 45 00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:44,280 Speaker 1: What surprised me? I thought I knew what was going on, 46 00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:47,120 Speaker 1: But this prove I thought the Privileges Committee was the 47 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:49,640 Speaker 1: court of the House. They made a decision. It is 48 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 1: what it is. It's not like you get to debate 49 00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:53,520 Speaker 1: a court decision regularly. How is it we get to 50 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:56,120 Speaker 1: have a debate. What's the point of the Privileges Committee 51 00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 1: if you second guess them? 52 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 2: Well, the standing orders provides that once the you know, 53 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:06,760 Speaker 2: the committee has just decided, it gets endorsed by the House. Now, 54 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 2: in the ordinary course of events, the Privileges Committee is 55 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:12,360 Speaker 2: unanimous or near unanimous, and then it all just kind 56 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 2: of sails through and everyone kind of agrees on it, 57 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:16,200 Speaker 2: and it all goes away. You know, I think about 58 00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:19,160 Speaker 2: duty engenter to vandom all on those things other committees 59 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:21,200 Speaker 2: in the past. This one's a bit more, a bit 60 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:25,520 Speaker 2: different because you know, basically, the dividers the governing parties 61 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 2: want her, you know, are pretty you know, it is 62 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:31,840 Speaker 2: admittedly a severe punishment twenty one days and uh, you know, 63 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,240 Speaker 2: Labor and the Greens and party Mary obviously you know 64 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 2: basically want to slap on the you know, sleep with 65 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 2: a wet bus ticket. So and it's sort of hard 66 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 2: to meet in the middle. Not on either side will give. 67 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:42,960 Speaker 2: So you know where are where we. 68 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,239 Speaker 1: Are, Okay, we'll see how it done. Pol's appreciate Leader 69 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:46,840 Speaker 1: of the House Chris Bishop with us this morning. 70 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:50,120 Speaker 2: For more from The Mike Asking Breakfast, listen live to 71 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:50,800 Speaker 2: news talks. 72 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 1: It'd be from six am weekdays, or follow the podcast 73 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:54,919 Speaker 1: on iHeartRadio.
