Chris Hipkins: Labour Leader on the teachers strike, Erebus Memorial, Grant Robertson's memoir

More than 20 thousand secondary teachers are walking off the job today to strike over the lowest pay increase offer in a generation.  Post-Primary Teachers Association members will picket outside dozens of schools and MP offices after rejecting a 3% pay increase over three years.  Opposition Leader Chris Hipkins told John MacDonald teachers deserve more than the Government's offering.  He says that if they accept this offer, they’ll effectively be taking a pay cut as it’s below the rate of inflation.  Hipkins says they at least deserve a pay increase that keeps them at the level they’re at now.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
