Listen "The Spinoff enters the press gallery"
Episode Synopsis
This week was the first week back for politicians in parliament, which meant a big week for anyone reporting in the gallery. Newly minted Spinoff political reporter Lyric Waiwiri-Smith spent 12 hours listening to oral submissions to the select committee on the treaty principles bill, and started her new column Echo Chamber, which recaps the lively question times in the House for those too busy to watch parliament TV.
Lyric joined Madeleine Chapman to share how she’s settling in and what her aspirations are for the next six months in the gallery.
