The Prime Minister says there needs to be rules in Parliament to ensure there's debate about difficult issues, without it degenerating into chaos.  

Speaker Gerry Brownlee's confirmed he's received complaints about Te Pati Māori's haka in the House last week.

David Seymour and Shane Jones have both asked him to consider changes.  

Christopher Luxon told Mike Hosking there has to be respect for rules. 

“You’ve got to be able to have proper conversations in a Parliament without it just degenerating into, you know, fisticuffs,” he said. 

“We just don’t need any of that.” 

He also believes just 'a piece' of the mass Hikoi was focused on the Government as a whole, rather than just the Treaty Principles Bill. 

Police estimate around 42 thousand people joined yesterday's Hikoi, making it one of the largest protests to ever take place in the capital. 

A large number of signs called out David Seymour, the architect of the Bill, by name. 

Luxon told Hosking it seemed to be pretty focused on the Bill.
