The rights of vulnerable minorities are disproportionately engaged, which is the point that the New Zealand First members who have spoken in favour of the referendum have failed to acknowledge. There's the possibility of a tyranny of the majority. That means that on certain fundamental issues it is right that those who are in a position, yes, of power and, yes, of privilege—that is a position that we 120 do occupy, admittedly temporarily, but that's called a democracy. I presume the Hon Ron Mark would not have it any other way. So it is, and as a matter of consistency with previous stances that I've taken, along with Simon O'Connor, I too resist the call that there should be a referendum on this matter.
