Friday Faceoff: Dame Kerry Prendergast and Wayne Guppy

Nick Mills wraps the week with former Wellington City Mayor Dame Kerry Prendergast and former Upper Hutt Mayor Wayne Guppy.   Are we panicking too much over the fuel supply from the Strait of Hormuz? Or is this justified?  How badly is our country going to be impacted by the US/Israel Iran conflict? Fuel, food, economy – our guest faceoff on the important issues of the week.  They discuss line of privacy as a public figure. Both have had to endure the political spotlight on their family lives and give their take on the situation around Minister Hipkins this week. Where does public interest end?  Last year there was a speeding fine issued every minute, now the AA is calling for fines to double. Do our panel think this will help deter speeders? Then Prendergast and Guppy faceoff about the affordability of mince. Are there any cheap family meals anymore?  Moa Point inquiry – costing over 5 thousand a day. The inquiry is being headed by a former head of Wellington Water, what do our panel think of this appointment and the progress from this?  And are parents justified for criticising teachers for giving out lollies? Is it an issue for their health and behaviour, or uproar over nothing? Plus the panels hot or nots.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
