The Panel with Tayyaba Khan and Andrew Frame (Part 2)

An article in the BBC posits the danger of over using punctuation marks and Why every unnecessary use of the enthusiastic punctuation says 'please like me'. The writer insists we instead use full stops. We ask the panellists if they agree. What are your grammar pet peeves? Auckland Council is the latest to declare a climate emergency. It follows the decisions of the Christchurch City Council and Nelson Council to do the same. But other councils aren't as convinced of the need, including Thames Coromandel District Council. We speak to Sheena Beaton from Hauraki Coromandel Climate Action Group about whether what the local council is doing. Last week we talked about young people getting involved in politics and serious issues. And this week a lovely story out of Marlborough. A group of schoolchildren, some as young as 8, have appeared at the council's annual plan hearings with a call for improved cycle safety. They want to install a cycle lane to make cycling safer and reduce emissions. The Panellists discuss wheterh this is a new era of youth participation in politics. In Stuff Ali Mau has written about workplace social media policies - and how often the bosses have higher standards for you than themselves. She notes that in the US, studies have shown 70 per cent of employers are screening candidates through their social media. The apnelists weigh in on whether this is an invasion of priavcy and whether we should be able to say what we like on social media.
