Chris Hipkins: Labour Leader on the Chinese cyberattacks and Gloriavale - Canterbury Mornings with John MacDonald

The leader of the Opposition says he finds the West Coast Christian community Gloriavale abhorrent.  

A new documentary series exploring the origins and controversies surrounding the secretive commune has begun airing on TVNZ.  

Some members have fled in recent years and several are taking Gloriavale to the Employment Court over claims of mistreatment.  

Labour's Chris Hipkins told John MacDonald his government set up an oversight group to keep an eye on Gloriavale.  

He says he understands the current government has disbanded the group, which is needed now more than ever, in light of what we've seen on TV over the past few days.
