Ryan Bridge: Important things happening in the world and our pollies are fussing over the C-word

AI's going to kill us all – unless Putin gets there first. More drones and flare-ups from him, allegedly, in the skies above Europe.

Trump's pushing Carney into the arms of another lover in Ursula von der Leyen. It was all hugs and kisses in Strasbourg.

The Aussies are making big moves to cut immigration. Central bankers are hiking off the back of war and oil.

And here in New Zealand, we're dropping the C-bomb in Parliament again.

This time it was Debbie from the Māori Party.

Things got a bit out of hand.

While the world was busy dealing with important matters, like preserving humanity, Willie Jackson was defending Debbie's C-bomb.

Parliament's bouncer, The Sergeant-at-Arms, was called on to help kick him out of the House!

Wild times in the debating chamber.

The Sergent is rarely called on to bounce politicians because politicians normally take their punishment and leave. But Willie was having none of that.

The Sergeant, whose frankly baller job title is up there with the Usher of the Black Rod, was thankfully saved from getting his hands dirty.

He didn't need to bust out the Mace and start prodding the pollies with it. Jackson eventually left the Chamber. Parliament carried on.

As did the rest of the world, which was a bit busy on more important issues of the day.
