Deported Aussie crims heading our way, Doctor Bloomfield goes to the Cricket (and regrets it), and National tries to keep a tight lid on the internal review of its disastrous Election result.

Insults flew at Parliament with Simon Bridges labelling Police commissioner Andrew Coster a ‘Wokester’ followed by select committee fireworks. The Govt. touted declining child poverty numbers despite them being more than a year old, and as Kiwis begin to be vaccinated, frustrated Aucklanders enter lockdown No.4.

This week it’s PM Vs. PM as Jacinda Ardern and Scott Morrison engage in a trans-Tasman terrorist stoush. As vaccine roll-outs begin, we look at rationales for COVID level changes, and War, what is it good for? KiwiSaver investments apparently.
