Chris vs Chris: Debating the current state of our major political parties

Description:

Today marks one year since our first episode of The Front Page, and it's been a truly haywire year for our politicians. 

After Labour’s popularity highs off the back of Covid, a growing backlash to their policies and a strong opposition saw Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern quit, handing over the reins to Chris Hipkins.

It is now a battle of the Chrises in the lead-up to our election in just over six months time, and little separates them in the polls. So will it be Hipkins or Luxon in the Ninth Floor this time next year – and who will be at the Cabinet table with them?

Today, Damien is joined by NZ Herald senior writer Simon Wilson and Newstalk ZB drive host Heather du Plessis-Allan for a lively discussion about the state of our politics.
