This week Political reporter Benedict Collins broke the explosive story of Air New Zealand helping the Saudi Navy. We discuss the background and how this story developed. We also look back on an eventful Waitangi 2021, and update on COVID19 vaccines for New Zealand. Finally we look at the other important story of the week: ties in Parliament, and how they overshadowed what could have been a more tumultuous week for Speaker Trevor Mallard.
