from The Panel
First up, former prime Minister Helen Clark says Winston Peters is inviting a sacking after he told Green MP Lawrence Xu-Nan to "go back to your own country" during a debate in Parliament. Political commentator Michael Swanson joins the panel to discuss if Peters has gone too far this time and what the options are for Christopher Luxon. Then, New Zealand's super and KiwiSaver settings have been on the pre-election stage from across the political spectrum. But a KiwiSaver lobby group is calling for bigger promises/changes. One of which, is putting to bed a loophole which enables businesses to opt out of employee contributions. Kirk Hope, chief executive of the Financial Services Council NZ explains to the panel why this loophole needs to be obliterated.
