Bishop ChrisCHRIS BISHOP (National—Hutt South): Mr Speaker.SPEAKER: I have called the member.CHRIS BISHOP: Apologies. Thank you very much Mr Speaker. Can I echo the remarks of my colleagues and the Prime Minister and say thank you to everyone who helps make us operate in this strange building sometimes. Thank you to you Mr Speaker and your attendant officers. Thank you to the cleaners and thank you to the Copperfields staff for keeping me filled up with short blacks as the days go by.We have truly entered the silly season. Henry Cooke I kid you not yesterday tweeted a long series of tweets about the top 10 toilets in Parliament and the Beehive—the top 10 toilets—SPEAKER: And he got it wrong. CHRIS BISHOP: And he got it wrong. That's exactly right. I was going to start a list about the top 10 stuff-ups that Phil Twyford made this year but it would go to 100 and we'd be here for the rest of the adjournment debate. Andrew Bayly is hoping for a big present from his wife and he's got a big present for her. It's what he told Newshub. We've really entered the silly season.I have some awards I want to give out to members around the House including from my own side. Firstly the Kip McGrath Award for Services to Illiteracy and Innumeracy"—Stuart Nash can't count to 1800 police. They're not there. The "Clare Curran Award" This is a very special award. The "Clare Curran Award for Openness and Transparency in Parliament"—Julie Anne Genter for her secret letter with a special rider: honorary membership of the SIS and the GCSB. She's done very well for secrecy this year. The Judge Dredd award—"I am the law"—goes to Clayton Mitchell from New Zealand First. The Milton Friedman award for freedom goes to David Seymour for the end of life choice success. The Oscar the Walter Mitty award for grandiloquence and bloviation: no other winner than the Hon Shane Jones. The Jenny Craig award for a shrinking waistline something that many of us could take after: Matua Paul Eagle—doing a great job; well done matua. The Brexit award for Nigel Farage impersonation: there's no other winner than Andrew Bayly a double winner.I want many things for Christmas. Firstly I want New Zealand to beat Australia at the Melbourne Cricket Ground when I'm there in a few days' time. But I actually want the Government to get on with building roads. I want them to start addressing our infrastructure deficit and our infrastructure crisis. I see the Leader of the House there the member of Parliament for Rimutaka. I want a new Melling interchange for Christmas and I know that if he puts his shoulder to the wheel he might be able to deliver it and we're looking forward to that. I want a new Mt Vic tunnel alongside Nicola Willis so get on with it. Wellingtonians have waited far too long and we don't want Julie Anne Genter to put the kibosh on it any further. I want Ōtaki to north Levin to start for Nathan Guy and Tim Costley—Matt King: Northland—Northland.CHRIS BISHOP: —our great candidate in that part of the world. I want four lanes to Whangarei Matt King—Matt King: What about Mill Road?CHRIS BISHOP: —because that's what we need. Mill Road Andrew Bayly. I want the Tauranga Northern Link Todd Muller which was out for procurement when the Government changed.Dan Bidois: East-West Link.CHRIS BISHOP: I want the East-West Link in Auckland Dan Bidois. I want Mill Road Judith Collins. I want the Tauranga to Katikati Scott Simpson. I just want roads started. It's actually not that hard.We just want some stuff to happen because we spent two years with the Government telling us "We don't want to invest in roads." Actually 94 percent of trips in New Zealand happen on private cars on the road and we have to get on with it. I want 2020 to be a better year because 2019 has been a tough year for many New Zealanders. When Whakaari / White Island happened the other day many of us reflected on just what else was going to happen this year. In the Hutt today as I'm sure you probably have noticed there was an issue with a lift in a building which plummeted some flights of stairs in a building in Lower Hutt. You just sometimes reflect back on the year and wonder. Hopefully 2020 will be better. But we have got through it together as a community. We have got through it together as a Parliament and extraordinary bravery and determination have actually been shown by both the Government and the Opposition in so many ways in response to some of the tragic events this year. So on that sober note can I wish everyone a very merry Christmas and a happy New Year."
