Bennett David; Tisch LindsayDAVID BENNETT (National—Hamilton East): I am going to do something in this Parliament that I never thought I would do—and that is agree with New Zealand First that this is New Zealand First policy that the Labour Party has taken off it. This is the Labour Party members taking Winston's home baking and trying to make it into their own. This is the Labour Party just going for electorate votes not looking after the true principles that made that party the Labour Party it used to be.Hon Annette King: Oh well you'll enjoy Nick then.DAVID BENNETT: People like Nick Leggett understand that the Labour Party has moved away from what it should be. This bill shows that the Labour Party members—just like their New Zealand First Party colleagues—are against trade they are against immigration and they are against an open and free New Zealand. They want to create more boundaries around New Zealand they want to restrict Government and what it can do in its procurement they want to stop New Zealand business trading and they want to stop New Zealanders embracing the wide range of cultures that will come and make this country the strong place it will be in the future.This is just another example of the anti - free-trade agenda that New Zealand First and Labour espouse in this House day after day. This is just another example of where the Labour Party does not want to engage with the rest of the world and believes that it knows best—that it can govern and it can decide and it can sell and it can buy and it can do everything to make a hunky-dory place for New Zealanders. It is New Zealand First and Labour thinking that they know better than New Zealanders. It is New Zealand First and Labour in their elite political establishments thinking that they are the ones who determine the future of the country.That is not the way that New Zealand is determined. It is determined by the businesses and people out there going out and competing against other businesses and delivering the best products. Why should the New Zealand Government not get the best products available for it? Why should we not trust New Zealand companies to go out there and beat foreign countries to it in selling to ourselves? Why should we not trust New Zealand companies to go out there and beat other countries' companies to sell to their Governments?Labour does not trust New Zealand businesses does not believe in New Zealand businesses and does not want to give them that opportunity to compete on a level playing field. Labour believes that New Zealand businesses need to be in an environment that is controlled by 20 or 30 people over there and by one person over there. That is what the New Zealand First - Labour vision of trade is all about. That is against the principles of what New Zealanders want.What is going to be the next limit? Just say you have two New Zealand companies competing to deliver a product for the New Zealand Government. Is it going to be the one that has more union membership that would get the contract? Is that how Labour is going to do it next? What is the next stage of their test for New Zealanders?Hon Annette King: Why don't you talk about the bill and stop talking nonsense?DAVID BENNETT: You get Annette King being very angry over there beside her leader because she is very defensive of him trying to take a New Zealand First Party policy and put it in a Labour wrapping and sell it to the community today.I wish the Labour Party would actually support New Zealanders and support New Zealand businesses rather than to say that New Zealand businesses are not good enough to compete and not good enough to succeed. That is what they are saying in this bill here tonight. It is partly New Zealand First policy—which we always expect and we know that it is going to come from them; we know that they are against trade we know that they are against migration we know that they want to go back to the 1950s and we know that they are just not for the future of this country—but the Labour Party has stooped to that level. The Labour Party has given up its traditions of a free and open New Zealand. The Labour Party has joined with the New Zealand First Party at the hip. And I say to the New Zealand First Party that in your agreements—or whatever you are doing with the New Zealand Labour Party during the election—make sure you get some copyright clauses in there because they are taking your policies they are taking them off you—Hon Member: Plagiarism.DAVID BENNETT: —and it is plagiarism of the highest degree as that member says over there. That is a disgrace from the Labour Party members in this Parliament.Hon Members: Eight seven six five—DAVID BENNETT: Yes they are counting down. We do not want a Fortress New Zealand; we want a New Zealand that is open free and innovative and we do not need Labour Party and New Zealand First politicians to tell us how to run our country.Hon Members: Sit down!The ASSISTANT SPEAKER (Lindsay Tisch): That is not necessary—he can see the screens and I am standing. [Interruption] Order! I am going to call Barry Coates.
