Citizen-A: Bomber Bradbury, Selwyn Manning & Chris Trotter on the Week’s Big Issues
Issue 1: In light of the Bronwyn Pullar fiasco, is ACC out of control and does a culture of bullying exist to keep NZers needing compensation from accessing it?
Issue 2: As far as the Prime Minister is concerned, the backlash to larger class room sizes was just bad marketing. Should public education be worried?
and Issue 3: The Maori Party this week voted for Paula Bennett’s welfare reforms and their leadership are reconsidering retirement – is there a future for the Maori Party?
And the panel deliver their final word for the week.
Citizen-A broadcasts on Triangle TV and webcasts on LiveNews.co.nz and Tumeke Blog.
