David Slack joins Geneva in studio today to discuss this whole Kiwi-build ordeal that everyones talking about, as well as reflecting on the Prime Ministers speech at Waitangi yesterday, and what we can expect from the year ahead.
Another jam-packed political commentary with Rod Oram for Breakfast, this morning. Talking the Prime Ministers return from Davos, and all that comes along with that (a lot) as well as National recent comments on tax and the never-ending story of Kiwi-build. Phew.
Is Kiwibuild going to plan? Looking for updates on our PM, Jacinda Ardern, who's over in Europe? And what about Labour MP, Andrew Little's, concern for human rights in New Zealand? All seems important stuff. Oh, and what's happening with Jami-Lee Ross now that he's back? We have a lot to catch up on with Dr. Bryce Edwards, it seems.
Is that, Rod Oram, our US correspondent..? Very cool. Rod dials in from the United States to give us the political low down on what's been going on. But not only covering happenings in the US, Rod's got a few things to say about ye old Brexit in the UK, yikes.
David Slack joins Mikey in studio to chat what went wrong in politics, and how to be better. David reckons might just have a few tips for our politicians, let's hear 'em.
Jennifer Curtin takes time out of her holiday to talk the best and worst politicians of the year while we sum up the all the expected and unexpected events in the world of politics. And looking forwards to what kind of referendum's and spectacle's we can hope to see in the future. All sorts today.
David Slack is here to give us the best of politics in 2018, what's actually important and what's distracting us in the media. David also plugs his own genius idea to build a tunnel underwater from Devonport to Auckland CBD to reduce use the of cars, who would've thought it could be that simple?
Mikey and Rod exchange some Christmas cheer, and discuss the governments $100m green fund, National's graceful exit from the Cabinet meeting, and the situation with Maggie Barry.
There's so much political commentary to be had that Dr. Bryce Edwards is back again this week just to make sure he's covered everything. Talking New Zealand's trade relationship with China, and prisoners right to vote, so much to cover, so little time.
Dr. Bryce Edwards is here (not really here, but in Auckland), catching up with Mikey over the recent events of the Pride Parade. And how about those NZ Political polls? How are they looking these days?
