Politics Friday with Vanessa Weenink and Tracey McLellan: Treaty Principles Bill, Ferry, Economy

There's a lack of enthusiasm for a ferry service between Wellington and Lyttelton.  According to Local Democracy Reporting, Waimakariri Mayor Dan Gordon believes the Government should consider reinstating the service, which ran from 1895 to 1976.  National Party's Vanessa Weenink told John MacDonald the idea is harking back to the old days.  She says she’s unsure what the business case would be, and is unsure if it would work out.  Labour's Tracey McLellan says it's a romanticised idea.  She told MacDonald she can’t see this one working, and it’s still taking three years to get the Cook Strait Ferries sorted.   LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
