This week, Massey University put out a list of the top 10 memorable quotes of the year.
The finalists included Paula Bennett's snippy "Zip it, sweetie," directed at Labour MP Jacinda Ardern during an exchange in the house.
There was also John Banks saying "I did not come up the river on a cabbage boat" and "I don't remember," both in reference to questions about Kim Dotcom.
I didn't think any of the quotes were particularly memorable really.
Here in Wairarapa we had a few memorable quips this year as well and I'd love to hear your suggestions for what our most memorable local quote might be.
