Description:

Michael Wood is the latest minister to lose a portfolio under Chris Hipkins. 

He has been stood down from the Transport portfolio after revelations he owns shares in Auckland Airport – and has failed to sell them despite several reminders. 

It’s the latest problem to engulf the government at a ministerial level, heaping more pressure on Prime Minister Chris Hipkins to right his ship ahead of this year’s election.

NZ Herald deputy political editor and host of On the Tiles, Thomas Coughlan broke the story about Wood. He joins Damien to dissect the issues facing the Labour government.
