It's really interesting listening to the predictable constitutional outrage of Nick Smith, who predictably gets up and gives the same speech he gives over and over again, while he conveniently forgets and ignores the history of this bill, which was followed by a report from the Waitangi Tribunal that said that the 2010 law disproportionately impacts Māori prisoners, is inconsistent with the Treaty of Waitangi, and also follows the High Court's declaration, upheld by the Court of Appeal and the Supreme Court, that the current law is inconsistent with the right to vote in the New Zealand Bill of Rights Act 1990. Nick Smith ignores all of that, ignores the advice that was given by his own former Attorney-General. I bet he's thankful that Chris Finlayson is no longer in this House, because he would be getting up and having a good say about this bill tonight.
