1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,360 Speaker 1: The political winners and losers from a bombastic day in 2 00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:07,560 Speaker 1: the House yesterday. Labour loser Willie Jackson did his best 3 00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:10,200 Speaker 1: to take the headlines, didn't he, But to Party Mardy's 4 00:00:10,280 --> 00:00:14,760 Speaker 1: choreographed stage production well and truly stole his thunder and 5 00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:18,320 Speaker 1: with it they've probably stolen any hope of Labour regaining 6 00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:20,520 Speaker 1: the Malori seats they lost at the last election. Why 7 00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:23,880 Speaker 1: would you vote for to Party Mardy light in Labor 8 00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:26,800 Speaker 1: when you can have the real deal. It's highly unlikely 9 00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:29,160 Speaker 1: Labor will lead the next government for a number of 10 00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:31,600 Speaker 1: reasons which we've canvassed on this program many times. So 11 00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:34,800 Speaker 1: why wouldn't you protest vote to Party Malory In twenty 12 00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:39,040 Speaker 1: twenty six, Despite Willie's protestations about the NAT supporting AX 13 00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:41,720 Speaker 1: Bill in the first reading, Casey Costello made a really 14 00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:45,280 Speaker 1: interesting point in the debate about Labour's own track record 15 00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:47,720 Speaker 1: on Treaty principles. They did a deal with New Zealand 16 00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:51,560 Speaker 1: first the Treaty Principal's deletion Bill back in two thousand 17 00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:54,720 Speaker 1: and five on first reading, and then later voted it down. 18 00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:56,720 Speaker 1: Does that sound for million years? That's because it is. 19 00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:59,000 Speaker 1: It's because the same thing is happening now. On the right, 20 00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:03,360 Speaker 1: they are a winner. They have shrewdly led this debate 21 00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:07,720 Speaker 1: for their base, from premeditated dramatic instagram ops in the 22 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:10,880 Speaker 1: House to fronting the party adjacent lead protest across the 23 00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:14,600 Speaker 1: Harbor Bridge, to encouraging yesterday voters to sign up to 24 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 1: the Maldi role during White Hetty's speech against the bill. 25 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:22,360 Speaker 1: They have outmaneuvered and out gunned Labor on all fronts, 26 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:24,640 Speaker 1: and they won't care what Middle New Zealand's reaction is 27 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 1: to the antics in the House. Therefore, politically it's a win. 28 00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:32,680 Speaker 1: Luxen winner of sorts, flying the coop to Peru turned 29 00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:34,760 Speaker 1: out to be and avoiding all this chaos probably the 30 00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 1: best idea he's had in a little while. Seymour winner 31 00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:41,440 Speaker 1: for his base who support this bill. The result speaks 32 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:45,000 Speaker 1: for itself. It passed, even if only the first reading. 33 00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:50,480 Speaker 1: The biggest loser Parliament and Decorum, Barry soaper On with 34 00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 1: Heather yesterday said this was an unholy mess, the likes 35 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,200 Speaker 1: of which he had not seen in the House before, 36 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:59,559 Speaker 1: and it's hard to argue with that. The question now 37 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:03,680 Speaker 1: is whether the same antics will be used to disrupt 38 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:08,240 Speaker 1: the Justice Select Committee and If so, what, if anything 39 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 1: will and can be done about it?
