Listen "The Whip for 8 October"
Episode Synopsis
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 examing 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 Zeaand'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 Toitu Te Tiriti cut ties with Te Pati Maori and what that means for the party's 'reset'.
