Madam Speaker—

Tell us about the ETS.

PetersRt Hon WINSTON PETERS Link to this

You will have plenty of time to discuss the emissions trading scheme.

BrownleeGerry Brownlee Link to this

That’s an admission. It will be in the House, with a long Committee stage.

PetersRt Hon WINSTON PETERS Link to this

Well, at least I have not ended up with a Māori nose after having had my face pressed up against the window of power for the last 9 years, like the member has.

WilsonMadam SPEAKER Link to this

Would the member please just ask the question. [ Interruption]

PetersRt Hon WINSTON PETERS Link to this

It will go on for a lot longer if the member carries on in that arrogant way. As for Mr Carter, I ask why he has lost three seats already. He has been refused nominations for all three seats, he is now on the list, and he lost the court case, as well. He has already paid his lawyer $160,000 in legal costs, trying to defend himself against a defamation case from me. Is he winning now? No, he is not. [ Interruption] There he goes again. He is big time here, but he cannot even stand—

Please be seated, all of you. This is what happens when interjections create disorder. The member will put forward just his question, and there will be silence so that we can get the question out.
