#BHN Harm Reduction Coalition Aotearoa | Julie Anne Genter speaks | National's Prison number fluff

Wendy Allison, Founder of Harm Reduction Coalition Aotearoa, joins us tonight to chat about the official launch today, on International Harm Reduction Day. HRCA seeks a new fit-for-purpose drug law for Aotearoa New Zealand, rooted in science, experience and evidence, to promote harm reduction and protect human rights as originally recommended by the NZ Law Commission in 2011. A TVNZ scoop as Political Editor Maiki Sherman spoke to Green MP Julie Anne Genter as she prepared to fly to the Chatham Islands. It was the MP's first time speaking publicly since she confronted National's Matt Doocey in Parliament. Mark Mitchell and PM Christopher Luxon's muffing the numbers at a press conference yesterday over Waikeria Prison. Storm in a teacup...or are the media right to criticise? The Prime Minister's office got a $50,000 makeover and some critics are saying it's bad optics in a cost of living crisis when National is laying off public servants left right and centre.
