Hon KRIS FAAFOI (Labour): Mālō ni, Mr Speaker. The beginning, they say, is a very good place to start, and there was a moment in the Mana by-election back in late 2010 when I knew that politics was going to be a great mixture of challenge and fun. My National Party opponent was the Hon Hekia Parata—and can I acknowledge her and the late Sir Wira Gardiner. During that campaign, Hekia and I were being labelled as carpetbaggers—outsiders being choppered in to run in an electorate. It was not unfair!
