Rt. Hon. Helen Clark and Hon. Michael Cullen re Section 59

bradv8 is a total knob. Vote Labour,or regret whats coming..privatisation,poverty,selling of state assets,New Zealanders are stupid enough to vote him in ,then this is going to be a horrible place to live in a few years.

CLARKE IS A COMMMIE!

Great telling Mr Cullen Quotes all Kiwis should know about this fool!! - "rich prick" comment to John Key (showing tall poppie issues) and his "good ridence" comment regarding the huge amount of Kiwis leaving New Zealand - not to mention his other gem of a quote - "I do not believe kiwis want tax cuts" regarding tax cuts!! Which is clear as non after 9 years!!

if it worried you Helen why is housing out of reach , food prices skyhigh, government owned utilities geared to huge profits , nothing comes back to family as you say, you live in another world, reduce pressure on the family would help this cause would it not , if you cant see a link between what I'm saying , please pack your bags and get to hell out of OUR parliament ???

i fully support section 59 being repealled, its absolutely appauling to see the level of voilence purpitrated against our children today. This law may bot stop child abusers who are hell bent on harming their children but it does send a clear message.

lol - yes but the kinda people that be will voilent with children will not give two shits. All it will do and has done is made good parents look bad because of a few losers who hit ther kids. Simply close the loop hole.. dont make smakin illegal. Who is she to tell us how to teach our kids.. A light smak is fine for a child..

It is illegal apart from one loophole in the law - section 59, which has in the past allowed physical abusers to escape punishment.

I thought killing your child from maltreatment was already illegal? Helen's massively confused again.

Pretty sad statistic...

Lulzuzu, you realise your country is in the top two, right? Right next to your buddy Mexico.
