The Panel with Denise L'Strange Corbet and Ed Amon, Part 1

Tonight, on The Panel, Wallace Chapman is joined by panellists Denise L'Strange Corbet and Ed Amon. First up, we hear some local voices across the country about how the last week of intense weather has affected them and their communities. We talk to Mike in Paeroa who has been documenting the raging Ohinemuri river, Scott McKenize, the Deputy Mayor of Whangarei, and we also talk to a member of the motorcamp community in Tauranga who knows the Mt Maunganui camp well: she says the true horror of what has happened is just now sinking. Then, former National leader and MP Todd Muller has written an opinion piece regarding the crumbling international world order spearheaded by Donald Trump. Muller explains why he thinks the best bet for New Zealand is to "hunker down".
