It’s a trying time for the Government, with fuel prices and the Iran War affecting just about every Kiwi.

It’s something the Opposition knows all too well, handling a crisis not of their making, with Covid.

But, how are politicians of all stripes handling the pressure?

Today on The Front Page, lawyer and political commentator, Liam Hehir, is with us to talk politics, polls, and policy.
