SpeechHon TRACEY MARTIN (Minister for Children): Normally when I get up to do a general debate speech I always always have a specific topic in mind and then—and then. So what I want to say to the New Zealanders that are listening is you already know what a National Government would do in a crisis not quite as bad as this one. You already know. Go back and have a look at what a National Government did after the global financial crisis. Go back and have a look at how they stripped out money from the public services that the New Zealand public needed to ride through the global financial crisis. Go and have a look because that is what you would be looking at again with a National Government.But go back somewhere else. Go back to the 1990s and have a look what a National Government did in the 1990s. Remember what it was like New Zealand. Remember what it was like because that is what a National Government will give you. The very reason there is a coalition Government sitting on this side of the House today which everybody should be incredibly grateful for after a terrorist attack a volcanic eruption and a pandemic is because New Zealand First refused to have the solutions provided by a previous National Government put into place for this nation. We knew we would have to invest in this nation. We did not know at the time we created the coalition Government that it would be on this level. Certainly we could not have predicted a pandemic. But what I can tell you New Zealand is go to history and have a look at what you will get if you get a National Government. And I can tell you: you do not want it because it is not a pretty picture. If you have to have one you need New Zealand First there. If you have to have a Labour Government you need New Zealand First there. Because only New Zealand First continues to remember how both those major parties decided to strip out investment from their citizens to try and make the books balance while at the same time opening the borders to try and bring back some income rather than truly setting the foundations for a future by investing in the education of their people.We just heard Ms Willis argue that oh it's all very good and yes of course the National Party supports apprentices but we would rather you took that money and put it into business. Again a National Party MP stands up and says Don't invest in your citizens. What are you doing?" Why would you be giving money to your citizens so that they could find employment? And strangely enough they seem to miss the whole point around small and medium sized enterprises that need that exact investment so that they can employ their neighbour's son or daughter as an apprentice so that they can expand their business so that they can recover from COVID. This is a tired message New Zealand. This is a National Party grasping at straws with a new leader who's come out of the gate somewhat faulted and they are trying to convince you to not look back at history—but look at history.Now I was going to talk about pornography. Brett Hudson: Really? Whatever turns you on Tracey!Hon David Bennett: Leave that speech to Shane he'll do it! Shane'll tell you all about it!Hon Michael Woodhouse: Whatever floats your boat! Mark Patterson doesn't know where to look!Hon TRACEY MARTIN: And now we can hear male members of the Opposition shouting out about a topic that is incredibly serious that is affecting our young people in this country—Hon David Bennett: Give Jonesy a go!Hon TRACEY MARTIN: That is David Bennett. Just so you know that's David Bennett because I want that on the record. Our young people are being bombarded by pornography but one of the things that the Department of Internal Affairs has put into play because we notice both the addiction to gambling and the addiction to pornography rising—Brett Hudson: It's Patricia Bartlett! I thought Patricia Bartlett had died!Hon TRACEY MARTIN: And that's Brett Hudson everybody just so you know. The two guys over there making fun of this topic that is affecting your children and your young people—Brett Hudson: We're making fun of you Tracey!SPEAKER: Order!Hon TRACEY MARTIN: —are David Bennett and Brett Hudson just so you know. So I want to point out to the parents out there about the Keep It Real Online safety campaign. Please go to —it's trending across the world—so that you can have a look at how you can sit down and talk to your children about the effects of cyber-bullying and the effects of pornography on children and young people in New Zealand.
