Chris Hipkins: Labour Leader on Te Pati Māori's haka, the behaviour of MPs in Parliament

  • Summary

  • Labour leader Chris Hipkins says he had no problem with Te Pati Māori's haka in the House last week, during the vote on ACT's Treaty Principle Bill.

    David Seymour, the National Party, and Shane Jones have written to Speaker Gerry Brownlee.

    They say the Speaker should oversee rule changes at Parliament in light of the disruption.

    Hipkins told John MacDonald it's worth instead looking at Winston Peters, who he describes as one of the worst-behaved MPs.

    He says it's wonderful Jones and Seymour have appointed themselves Parliament's hall monitors, but they could lead by example and speak to their own leaders.
