Episode The Whip for 11 March 2026

0:00 28:03

Join Wallace Chapman for New Zealand's most explosive 30 minutes of politics. He is joined by panellists Guyon Espiner, Lillian Hanly, and Heather Roy. They begin with the second report of the Covid-19 Response Inquiry - how well did the government of the day handle the pandemic? Then, just as the economy looked like it was making a correcting turn... the war in Iran began and oil prices started spiking. What does this mean in an election year? After that, they discuss how things are shaking out for Christopher Luxon the week after a devastating poll. And finally, a lookback on Shane Reti's legacy as he joins a string of Ministers bowing out from politics.
