Imagine if a National MP said this about a female Labour MP?
From Hansard:
Hon PAULA BENNETT: The reason I am not part of this inquiry is that I actually speak to people at the coalface and people who are suffering from this on a weekly basis. I do not need to go 18 months back in the programme of work that this Government is already doing. As the members themselves would say, what they need is action, and that is what the National Party and this Government are doing.
Rt Hon Winston Peters: Minister, since when has the coalface been the local deli?
Winston is all class isn’t he.
