Today on the Sunday Panel, Gold Breakfast and Newstalk ZB host Andrew Dickens and host of the Straight Up podcast and ZB newsreader Niva Retimanu are here to talk about the local body elections after the fact.

The swing to the right – we’ve seen a definite appetite for change across the country – what does this mean for the Labour Government? 

Wayne Brown – how do you feel about your new mayor?  We’ve already seen the chair of AT resign – is this a good sign of change to come? 

Low voter turnout – we've been talking about this for weeks and as it turned out the turnout was steady at 40% but was only 31% in Auckland – and in parts of South Auckland was under 20%.  Central Government elections are at around 80% so what do we do – do we need a complete overhaul of local body elections?
