Rob brings in a plethora of fishy puns. From D Double Eel, to Pearl Clam, they come rolling in from Rob and the listeners. Plus, a guide through coral damage from climate change and how the fish can rebuild. Nice.

On Neighbourhood Watch this week Zoe talks us through what is happening for Reconciliation Week in Te Whenua Moemoeā or Australia, including the explosion of an area of sacred land for a mine, we also touch on the amount of money borrowed by the government which was double what was needed and how that money will not be redistributed to other people in need.
Environment Minister David Parker announced this week that Auckland Council’s proposal, to more than double their daily water draw from Waikato river, will be fast tracked through the consent process. The Wire have been discussing the fast tracking of certain projects through the consent process for a couple of weeks now, but this week Mary-Margaret spoke to Nate Rew of Te Ara Whatu about the risk of this particular project. Waikato-Tainui are trying to protect their river from this, as they say it will cause long term harm, and that consultation was never attempted with them. Mary-Margaret asked Nate about breaches to Te Tiriti of this nature, and the framing of land issues by media as iwi ‘blocking’ a solution.
