Five things you need to know
1. New Zealand’s speaker babysits during parliament debate
Trevor Mallard had double duty at work on Wednesday. New Zealand’s speaker was cradling and feeding MP Tāmati Coffey's newborn during a parliamentary debate. It was Coffey’s first day back from paternity leave and the heartwarming moment has gone viral for all the right reasons.
Normally the Speaker’s chair is only used by Presiding Officers but today a VIP took the chair with me. Congratulations @tamaticoffey and Tim on the newest member of your family. pic.twitter.com/47ViKHsKkA
