Fuel Pressures, Iran Conflict and Cyclone response w/ Shanan Halbert

Global tensions remain high this week, with a ceasefire in the ongoing US Iran conflict and renewed escalation around the Strait of Hormuz raising concerns about global oil supply and rising fuel prices.

Here in Aotearoa, severe weather events continue to put pressure on communities, with debate emerging over how and when states of emergency should be declared, following comments from Wairoa’s mayor during Cyclone Vaianu.

For our weekly catch-up with Labour Party’s Shanan Halbert, Producer Pranuja asked about the government’s response to these developments, both internationally and at home.
