Description

Tonight, on The Panel, Wallace Chapman is joined by Ed McKnight and Niki Bezzant First up, a whip around on the extreme weather affecting the lower North Island and South island, including Helen who had her yurt destroyed by a falling tree. Then, over 100,000 public servants including nurses, teachers and others have walked off the job as part of the "megastrike". The Panel talks to the union for counsellors about why their members that work in schools have joined the strike. Finally the Panel talks to Autism New Zealand chief executive Dane Dougan about the extraordinary case in the UK where the family of an autistic man in England is appalled that the supermarket he volunteers for refused to pay him when it was requested. Could it happen here?
