Hosted by Sam Collins, Phil Goff and Chris Finlayson, Cross Party Lines breaks down the week in New Zealand politics from both sides of the aisle - with clarity, context and a little humour.
In this week’s episode:
* Winston Peters breaks ranks — Why the Deputy PM is publicly contradicting his own coalition, what’s driving it, and what the Cabinet Manual has to say about it.
* The McSkimming scandal — What the case reveals about structural weaknesses in police systems, what resources and new oversight do we need?
* The Regulatory Standards Bill — It passed its third reading last week, but what does it really do? Phil and Chris unpack the implications, the ideology and why parts of the old Legislation Act were working just fine before being pulled apart.
New episodes every Tuesday. If you’re enjoying the show, share it with a friend — it genuinely helps grow the conversation.
