I've just identified some waste the government can cut!

David Seymour is our new Associate Justice Minister with responsibility for the Treaty Principles Bill (https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/political/507629/prime-minister-announces-minor-cabinet-reshuffle). But Luxon insists that National only guaranteed to support the bill to select committee, and although he repeatedly refuses to confirm that National will definitely vote against it afterwards he is confused that people are suspicious and doesn't "know how we can be any clearer than that" (https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/political/507376/luxon-says-position-on-treaty-bill-clear-but-doesn-t-unequivocally-rule-it-out).

If National are totally definitely 100% we can't be any clearer not going to vote for the bill after select committee, then we don't need a cabinet minister with special responsibility for it, do we? Classic case of the kind of ridiculous government waste that ACT hates.

It's a reference to the book Adolf Hitler: My Part In His Downfall by Spike Milligan, you should read it, it's short and has no long words.
