Today on The Huddle- We had David Farrar, Kiwiblog writer and Curia pollster, and Mike Munroe, former Labour Chief of Staff and current director at Mike Munroe Communications discuss the following topics:

Gaurav Sharma has resigned, triggering a by-election and he says watch this space regarding a new party.

Middlemore staff seem to be getting sick of the Government saying hospital short staffing is Covid related, these issues have been consistent for years.

ASB now picking OCR will hit 5.25 percent - Grant Robertson quick to put out a press release saying inflation is easing - he's not wrong, but still a rough number to hear. How were the Reserve Bank's numbers so far off? 

The final decision has been made made - AUT is closing its childcare centre. Couple of parents and the Tertiary union are pretty devastated but the uni says its not their priority.

The Transport Minister seems very over the Restore Passenger Rail protestors closing down motorways every morning.

13 percent of people were flying to Perth, Honolulu and Tahiti without taking a bag so Air New Zealand  has got rid of that option. But 13 percent of customers using that option is still surely significant?

All of these topics were discussed today on The Huddle!
