Collins Judith: General DebateText is incorporated into the Bound VolumeCollins Judith: General Debate[Sitting date: 23 July 2014. Volume:700;Page:19398. Text is incorporated into the Bound Volume.]Hon JUDITH COLLINS (Minister of Justice):It is always a pleasure to follow Mr Te Ururoa Flavell. He is always a thoughtful speaker and I think he has put a lot of effort into what he has had to say today. I would like to say however that I am actually feeling a little bit sorry for David Cunliffe.Dr Cam Calder: No!Hon JUDITH COLLINS: Yes I am because I know he is sorry for everything. But what I am really sorry about is that poor old David Cunliffe—we saw it today; the lack of discipline in his party. Where was the shadow Leader of the House? Was he popping up and down? No it was David Parker trying to take on that role. Then we had Trevor Mallard trying to take on the role. Then we had Grant Robertson finally getting himself out of his seat to raise a point of order and to try to take over the role. What we saw today in question time were leadership bids going on for post this election.Poor old David Cunliffe. You would have to wonder. He has had so much advice given to him today. I think the press was pretty good today. Members of the press told him to stop saying sorry. Actually he cannot. He has started now. He is sorry for being a man. Well I can tell the House that 49 percent of New Zealanders are men. They should not be sorry for being men just as someone like me who is a mother is not sorry for being a mother even though there are some mothers who kill their children or beat them or whatever. I am not sorry for being a mother. What I am sorry for is that they are mothers. That is what David Cunliffe should be saying. Instead what he said to all men in New Zealand was that they too should feel ashamed.He was also sorry to be on holiday. Well he should just stay away really. He is sorry for not knowing what was happening in the polls. He would be the only one in New Zealand who was not aware. He is sorry that he has got Trevor Mallard on the moa farm. I think it is fair enough that Trevor Mallard wants a moa farm. It would be a bit funny if he had a duck farm would it not? He is sorry he has got a do-up in the elite suburb of Herne Bay. He is sorry that Grant Robertson spent 3 years of parliamentary time talking about the Government Communications Security Bureau (GCSB). It is not an issue I have to say that anyone in the Papakura electorate has raised with me. That is probably because we have got an army camp in the town and they actually like having some help from the GCSB.I would also say to that member—what is his name? Williams from New Zealand First—Mr Williams. I cannot remember his first name sorry. He has got a policy about drunkenness in a public place. I bet he is sorry too. I bet he is sorry. I just wonder whether his leader thinks that Parliament is a public place or else he will be sorry as well.Labour has got a man ban. Its members are sorry about that. But I thought apart from the man ban what was really good what I really loved was the cosmetics ban. Who did they have to run it? Trevor Mallard. What would Trevor know about cosmetics? What would Trevor know? I see Su’a William Sio laughing away because he would have thought that there are lots of other people in the Labour Party who are much better qualified than Trevor to run an anti-cosmetics campaign.Then we would have to say that David Cunliffe could also be sorry for undermining Phil Goff when he was leader. He could be sorry for undermining David Shearer. But I think most of all he should be sorry for being so jealous of Shane Jones that he drove him out of Parliament. That is what he really should be sorry about because Shane actually has charisma and a personality and he has got followers which poor old David Cunliffe does not have.But over on this side we are not sorry at all. We are really proud of the hard work that we are doing. In the justice sector we are so proud of the police and of corrections staff. I am proud of my colleagues I am proud of the courts and I am proud of my Ministry of Justice. I am proud of the team that we have—the Attorney-General the Minister for Courts the Minister of Police and the Minister of Corrections. I am proud of the fact that we have a team that is united and working for New Zealand not working for the Labour Party flunkeys over on the other side of the House.
