Salesa JennyJENNY SALESA (Labour—Manukau East): Mr Speaker thank you for the opportunity to contribute to the general debate. We are beginning to see a National Government that is in a shambles and the splits and divisions are beginning to show. We are seeing a Government that refuses to acknowledge that there is a housing crisis especially in Auckland.We hear the Minister of Education saying that she is focused on children that the policies that she is bringing across are apparently because she is all focused on children—but you know what? She is not focused on all children. She is focused especially on children who are privileged children who attend high-decile schools. When I look at this new policy that she brought in just last night communities of online learning I am not quite sure how it would actually be implemented on the ground for a lot of the young people in Manukau East in South Auckland. I will give you an example. When I go visiting the primary schools intermediate schools and many of the high schools around South Auckland many of the young people do not actually have their own devices. Many of the homes that they live in do not have internet access. How can we expect that the access to this community of online learning is going to be of equal value to every single student regardless of where they live regardless of the socio-economic status that their parents have when they themselves do not have access to those devices? That is on the one hand and that is for the kids and the students who are attending schools.I also see so many—too many—of our young people who do not even have a home. A lot of our young people who are living in garages and cars now not only have no access to a device but do not even have a roof to call a home. Too many of these young children are not even enrolled in a school. So this community of online learning will probably be a good idea for a lot of students but it will not be of equal access to every single student.But let me get back to the splits and divisions beginning to show in the National Government. We also see this in the shambolic approach that it has to the Shop Trading Hours Amendment Bill. It is a disgrace that we are seeing the National Government whipping its National MPs just to get this Easter Sunday bill across the line. We know that bills on Easter Sunday trading have come through and been debated at least eight times before and they have not passed. When we look at the previous votes we see that nine National members of Parliament voted against this legislation. They voted with their consciences. I see the list and there are five National MPs still here who have traditionally voted against the Easter Sunday trading bill. They are probably going to vote Yes now because they have been whipped into it by their Prime Minister.I am most concerned about two MPs on that list in particular: the Pacific MPs who belong to the National Government. This is because this issue is of crucial importance especially to us Pacific Islanders—those of us who are churchgoers those of us who are Christians. One of the National MPs Mr Alfred Ngaro was a church minister before he came into being a politician and the other National MP Peseta Sam Lotu-Iiga is a strong Christian. I know that if they were given the chance they would vote against this bill. That is how I believe their consciences would tell them they should vote. It is my hope—there is still time; the third reading is not until tomorrow I am told—that these two National MPs Sam Lotu-Iiga and Alfred Ngaro will find it in their hearts to vote with their consciences and to vote the right way. Thank you very much.
