This is a government that rams through legislation under urgency at the drop of a hat. E.g
- introducing regional fuel taxes
- levy on international visitors
- abolishing election for Waikato DHB
- reducing the amount a foreign person can donate to a party
- giving prisoners the vote
- classifying on-demand videos
- abolishing the right of voters to decide on local Maori wards
"Oh we'd love to help but there's a pesky law in the way" may be the excuse for not acting on the invasion of Ukraine, it sure isn't the reason.
