Last week, the Treaty Principles Bill passed it’s first reading in Parliament.
Following this, Te Pāti Māori MP, Hana Rawhiti Maipa-Clarke, initiated a haka in protest, being joined by other members of the party, as well as other MPs from opposition parties such as Labour and the Green Party. On top of this, members of the gallery also performed the haka. This resulted in Speaker, Gerry Brownlee, pausing Parliament for an hour, with Hana Rawhiti Maipa-Clarke, being named by the speaker for ‘disorderly conduct’
For our weekly catchup with the National Party’s Tom Rutherford, News and Editorial Director, Joel, spoke to him about the bill passing its first reading, and the subsequent haka in protest.
They also spoke to him about Prime Minister, Christopher Luxon, indicating the country is still considering joining Pillar two of the AUKUS agreement.
This week is Fraud Awareness Week, bringing to light the issue of scamming in Aotearoa and what the government can do about it. Commerce and Consumer Affairs minister Andrew Bayly announced yesterday that the government is looking into addressing the issue with a coordinated response.
This response will focus on improving relationships between industries and international partners, however Consumer NZ sez this may not be enough. Tuesday Wire host Castor spoke to acting head of research and advocacy at Consumer NZ, Jessica Walker, about scamming in general and what more can be done.
