The Panel with Sally Wenley and Alan McElroy, Part 1

from The Panel

First up, a raft of new offences and penalties were passed into law this week, with the most dramatic change being a presumption of car forfeiture for racers. This could mean the return of car crushing, and Waikato District Council mayor Aksel Bech is here for it. Then, we return to Brown's Bay on Auckland's North Shore for a story we covered on Monday. We heard from Reverend Dion Blundell who wants to start a social enterprise in the township. He wants to feed more than 500 people a day with 5-dollar meals from a cafe and community hub. But there's pushback - some in the community say it's not the right place others say it would turn the township into a crime ridden area. Kim Gordon from the Brown's Bay Business Association joins the panel to offer their view.
