From First Up, 5:44 am on 30 September 2021

More than 26,000 people gathered in the MIQ lobby on Tuesday night in a bid to come home before Christmas. They aren't just kiwis living overseas wanting to visit or return, there are also people living here wanting to leave to visit dying or ailing relatives overseas. There are athletes, Olympians and businesspeople who left thinking they could return but now find themselves stranded. Ellie Jay asked Deputy Prime Minister Grant Robertson what he has to say to them.
