Political commentators Neale Jones and Tim Hurdle join Lynn to talk about the Prime Minister joining other world leaders at the Queen's funeral, the latest Curia-Taxpayers' Union poll and will the hip pocket pressures of inflation and interest rates drown out any story around headline data re GDP and unemployment?

Neale Jones was Chief of Staff to Labour Leader Jacinda Ardern, and prior to that was Chief of Staff to Andrew Little. He is the director of public affairs firm Capital.

Tim Hurdle is a former National party advisor and was campaign director for National at the 2020 election.
