	Description:		Today on The Huddle: Tim Wilson from Maxim Institute and NZ Herald senior writer Simon Wilson joined in on a discussion about the following issues of the day- and more! The Interislander ferries aren't in good shape, with multiple breakdowns and cancellations leaving people stranded. Why can't we fix this? What's the solution? Cyclone Gabrielle is likely to set the economy back by hundreds of millions and taxes may need to be raised to fix all this- what do we think of this? Chris Hipkins has announced a $74 million truancy package and created over 80 new attendance officer positions to fix the falling school attendance rates. Is this going to help, or is this another election bribe? National's Maureen Pugh told reporters she 'had yet to see evidence humans contributed to climate change'. She has since been pulled into line and been given some reading material by Chris Luxon and Nicola Willis- but how does this make National look?
