Brigitte and Lamia join Kathryn to look at Labour's continuing slide and the polls and a weekend win for National in Hamilton West. Which portfolios are continuing to give the Government a headache and could a cabinet reshuffle planned for early next year make a difference? Three Waters has passed, but questions remain over the entrenchment clause and has co-governance been put on ice?
Brigitte Morten is a director with public and commercial law firm Franks & Ogilvie and a former senior ministerial advisor for the previous National-led government.
Lamia Imam worked for two years for the Labour Party in the Leader of the Opposition's office under Phil Goff and David Shearer. She also worked for the Ministry of Justice, before gaining a Masters in Public Affairs from the University of Texas at Austin. She currently works for a large technology company in Wellington.
