Description

Prime Minister of Australia Julia Gillard reassures PM John Key by saying 'Honestly John, if some MPs are getting antsy I don't mind addressing parliament earlier...' John Key replies that the real problem is that 'given the current rate of emigration to OZ, three hours later and the chamber could be half empty...' Context - the state visit to New Zealand by the Australian MP Julia Gillard in mid-February. Green Party co-leader Russel Norman said no international head of state had ever addressed Parliament and allowing Ms Gillard to speak would set a precedent.
