Show notes

Prime Minister Chris Hipkins has scrapped the nationwide speed limit reduction and clean car upgrade to support Kiwis. When paired with the scrapped TVNZ/RNZ merger and the biofuels mandate, Hipkins said the total $1 billion sum of the reprioritisation would be directed towards “bread and butter” issues. NZME business commentator Fran O'Sullivan says Chris Hipkins' approach seems to be more pragmatic and less ideological. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
