It's a waste of time. We've got enough as it is.

Yes, because I know the background and it would be good to see it. I'm interested to see if Jacinda's baby is born around the Māori New Year.

I don't think it should be a national holiday. I'm not against anything but it should go into Parliament. Best bet is to take it to Parliament and see what they say.
