The Wire with Justin Wong

This morning Lillian spoke to the Minister for the last time, we started by discussing Todd Muller’s resignation and Judith Collin’s appointment as National Party leader, before touching on some of the things Martin is most proud of during this government term and what she wants to work more on.

For Lillian's last show today, both Allan and Marcus are in studio for Dear Science with a bottle of bubbly, we discuss cannabis, the power of sunlight, and solar power.

We are going to do a little update on the National Party’s new leader and just the whole shambles that was these past couple months.

Felix reports on Huawei and 5G in the UK, and the wider implications of 5G conspiracies.

We have NZ First’s Tracey Martin on the show today and Lillian's last discussion they touch on some of her successes from the past government term, as well as what other work needs to be done, and discuss the new National Party leadership.

And Lillian finishes the show by running through some highlights of her time here, touching on Ihumātao, the Christchurch terror attacks, Ramadan, a chat with Cornel West, an interview about phosphate, an interview in Māori about Mahuru Māori, a report on the Covid-19 Response Bill, and a report on whiteness.
