New Zealand’s Parliament is a ‘house of chaos’.

At least that’s how our own deputy Prime Minister has described the debating chamber.

The C-Bomb was dropped in Parliament last week by Brooke van Velden, quoting a Stuff column by Andrea Vance that was criticising the Government’s changes to pay equity.

It has muddied an already dirty debate over women’s pay that is set to overshadow the Budget this year.

And at the same time, Te Pati Maori’s co-leaders have been threatened with suspension from Parliament for three weeks, over last year’s headline-making haka.

Today on The Front Page, to help us make sense of the chaos, we’re joined by Newstalk ZB political editor Jason Walls.

You can read more about this and other stories in the New Zealand Herald, online at nzherald.co.nz, or tune in to news bulletins across the NZME network.
