Barry Soper: New Zealand has given the nod on AUKUS - Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive

New Zealand has given the nod to the US Secretary of State that we will sign up to AUKUS, following Winston Peters’ visit to Washington DC. 

Senior political correspondent Barry Soper tells Heather du Plessis-Allan we could be biting the hand that feeds us as the latest trade figures between New Zealand and China reach over $40 billion.  

Meanwhile, Prime Minister Christopher Luxon has told journalists that a hammered media is not something the government can do much about.
