Description

This week on The Whip, panellists Annabelle Lee-Mather, Guyon Espiner and Peter Dunne discuss all the major political stories of the week. They start by examining the squabble between Winston Peters and Chlöe Swarbrick over protesters outside his house. Then they look at the impending MEGA strike of Nurses, healthcare assistants working in hospitals, prisons and senior doctors and dentists, alongside primary and secondary teachers. Is this the biggest strike in New Zealand's history? They then move on to the state of the job market and Wallace asks: do we need a John key style 'jobs summit'? Finally, they examine how Toitū Te Tiriti cut ties with Te Pāti Māori and what that means for the party's 'reset'.
