Episode Synopsis


First up, migrant bus drivers say English language test for the skilled residence visa are completely unrealistic, leading many to fork out large sums for testing or even considering heading back home. Then, it's been confirmed the National MP Carl Bates is under formal investigation for failing to declare 25 properties linked to him and his family to parliament's register of pecuniary interests. It's a story that has gone a little under the radar this week, but commentator Byrce Edwards says parliament is too slack in dealing with MPs interests and she should be paying more attention.
