The Huddle: NZ Rugby rethinks Altrad sponsorship and the Government plans on ending fuel excise tax cut in March

Today on The Huddle, Jack Tame from ZB's Saturday Mornings and Q&A and ZB Host Tim Beveridge joined in on a discussion about the following issues of the day: 

NZ Rugby is reconsidering their sponsorship arrangement with Altrad after their owner Mohed Altrad was handed an 18-month suspended jail sentence for being found guilty of corruption. How should NZ Rugby proceed, and will rugby supporters care?

The Government has announced they will end the fuel excise tax cut and half priced public transport on March 31st 2023. Is this really the best move, at a time where we're heading into winter, a recession, and an election? 

The Government has opened up their books to showcase the state of their earnings and planned spending for the coming months- what kind of challenge does the Finance Minister have on his hands?

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy made an address to parliament asking them to think about the environmental toll the invasion and war are having on the region. Does New Zealand seem like they would care more about the environment than the war?
