News and Editorial Director, Joel, spoke to the National Party’s Katie Nimon, on the move, and whether the party had any plans themselves to implement a similar move.
As well as this, they spoke to Katie about the recent worker’s rallies that occurred in 12 different spots around the country, and whether or not the party has any plans to address the concerns of those who attended the rallies.
On the 29th of October, worker’s unions across the country held rallies over concerns of what they have dubbed this government’s “anti-worker” agenda.
These concerns stem from elements such as the government’s cuts on public services, scrapping fair pay agreements, and re-introducing 90-day trials.
Attendees of the rallies included Labour leader, Chris Hipkins, and several members of Te Pāti Māori, including co-leaders Rawiri Waititi and Debbie Ngarewa-Packer, with the Public Service Association sayingroughly 10,000 individuals showed up to the rallies overall.
News and Editorial Director, Joel, spoke to the Assistant Secretary for the Public Service Association, Fleur Fitzsimons, about the rallies, and what the atmosphere was like for those attending the hui.
