I look, as no doubt many of you do, at certain politicians who pass through the political landscape of this country. To me, there are some that stand out and will for ever be kauri trees: Keith Holyoake, Richard Seddon. When I spoke in this House in my maiden speech as a New Zealand First MP in my first term here in 1996 as part of a coalition Government with National, I spoke of Norm Kirk: "People don't want for much. They only want somewhere to live, somewhere to work, someone to love, and something to hope for." That was a speech that was repeated by Mike Moore time and time again on the hustings.
