ACT - vindictive streak?

Parliament is not. It is the government heart of a multicultural society and should bloody well get with the programme, and stop holding on to the unimportant residues of a colonial past.

As for the punishment, considering the MPs of the past who have acted out within and without its walls and gone unsanctioned, I smell racist bullshit.

IMO, they did nothing to warrant any punishment at all; the last time I was that proud of being a kiwi was when theĀ  ships left for Mururoa to protest the French nuclear tests.


This is plain old vindictiveness,with a large dash of racism.

And when we look at previous punishments in parliament, it becomes even more obvious.


Three days is the longest suspension so far, so the ludicruous suggestion of 21 days would be seven times longer than any previous suspension given.
