Political Commentators Neale Jones and Tim Hurdle join Susie to talk about the Green's "crybaby" snafu, Jacinda Ardern's valedictory speech and legacy, whether Te Whatu Ora is another government merger in trouble, mounting economic woes with a $600m deficit higher than forecast, a 50 basis point hike to the OCR and a new survey which shows falling sales has surpassed labour shortages as the main worry for businesses.
Neale Jones was Chief of Staff to Labour Leader Jacinda Ardern, and prior to that was Chief of Staff to Andrew Little. He is the director of public affairs firm Capital.
Tim Hurdle is a former National party advisor and was campaign director for National at the 2020 election.
