RNZ's political editor Jo Moir on a chaotic day in Parliament

from Morning Report

There were tumultous scenes in Parliament yesterday from both sides of the House, with Labour and New Zealand First both finding a way to insert themselves into the news. While it was National's first day back in the building together following the leadership challenge last week, it was coalition ructions, a missed defence meeting, and Labour's own goals sucking up the oxygen. Political editor Jo Moir was there and spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.
