Last year on talkback radio, my former colleague broadcaster Marcus Lush put Taieri on the map when he launched a national debate about how to say this beautiful Te Reo word. It is frequently mispronounced Tiree, which is an island off the coast of Scotland. Many of us whakapapa to Scotland down our way, so it's easy to see how this happened. However, I can assure this House that Marcus Lush was correct in his pronunciation. Our place is Taieri, which speaks to our awa, the fourth-longest river in New Zealand. So, Mr Speaker, I stand before you today, humbled to be the new MP for Taieri.
