Description:

The United States has officially withdrawn from the World Health Organisation (W-H-O).

Following this, Foreign Minister Winston Peters has called into question New Zealand’s membership, including the use of “taxpayers money” being sent to the organisation.

Recovery efforts continue in Mt Maunganui, one week after the fatal landslide that left six people presumed dead.

The Government is now looking into the potential for an official inquiry into the landslide.

And protests continue in Minneapolis following the Trump administration’s crackdown on the city, including the killing of two civilians by immigration enforcement officers.

For our weekly catch-up with the Labour Party, Wire Host Caeden spoke to Shanan Halbert about all of these issues.
