Political commentators Gareth Hughes & Ben Thomas

Political commentators Gareth Hughes and Ben Thomas join Susie to discuss the recommendations for an electoral system shakeup that would lower the voting age to 16 and extend the parliamentary term to four years. Transport Minister Michael Wood may've breached Parliament rules for failing to declare his shares in Auckland Airport, former PM Jacinda Ardern is now a Dame - but not everyone has welcomed the King's Birthday honours news. They'll also talk about the major parties' attack strategies, the government revealing more of what managed retreat could look like and how an accord over housing collapsed. Gareth Hughes is a former Green MP and now works for the Wellbeing Economy Alliance Aotearoa. Ben Thomas is a former National government press secretary, a columnist and a director of public affairs firm Capital.
