If you could launch a new discount card AKA supergold, what would it be for? China showed off its military might as the Communist Party celebrated its 70th anniversary. Trucks carrying weapons including nuclear-capable missiles drove down the streets of Beijing. Some of the weapons were being shown for the first time, alongside rows and rows of soldiers in Tiananmen Square. Sydney's top private boys schools have split over a decision to include a race for students with disabilities at an athletics carnival, prompting organisers to abandon the plan. A representative of one school warned that students with disabilities would be mocked and said the inclusion of a special race was "tokenism". We speak to Chris Orr from Blind and Low Vision NZ. All Blacks flanker Ardie Savea will wear protective goggles in the next RWC game against Canada. An opinion piece in Stuff written by Jackie Clarke from the Aunties caught our attention, titles "You Can't Budget Your Way Out of Poverty". Jackie writes that it is expensive to live in poverty. The panellists discuss the piece.
