Is the government flailing?

From The Panel, 4:08 pm on 19 June 2018

The Dominion Post written a rather scathing review of the government's latest slip ups, saying it must find it feet and quickly. The panelists give their views on this assessment and the latest problems plaguing the government.

Political commentator Richard Harman from Politik joins the show to discuss whether the latest wage and pay disputes can be blamed on the current government, and whether sliding business confidence could be an issue for the economy.
