Chlöe Swarbrick is confident in the Greens' argument about proportionality of the House being affected by now independent MP Darleen Tana.  

Party delegates have voted to ask Speaker Gerry Brownlee to oust Tana from Parliament, invoking the waka-jumping law it has previously opposed.  

It's now down to Brownlee to decide if Tana's resignation from the party —but not Parliament— affects the proportionality of the House.  

The Green Party co-leader told Mike Hosking she's proud the 185 delegates representing thousands of members all came to the conclusion. 

She says it was a unanimous and resounding consensus, which demonstrates that the party's moving forward together on the issue.

Chlöe Swarbrick: Green Party co-leader on the 'unanimous' vote to invoke waka jumping law against Darleen Tana

At the end of each week, Mike Hosking takes you through the big-ticket items and lets you know what he makes of it all. 

 

The America's Cup and Spanish tourism: 7/10 

Despite the protests and locals telling everyone to go home, more people than ever showed up. 

 

Wellington City Council: 1/10 

Now that is a scandal. 

 

The Local Government Minister: 4/10 

He has to act, given he's pulled the trigger and made the threat. Reputationally, you can't go round threatening people then doing nothing. 

 

Luxon: 4/10 

Out of touch, according to the poll. It's not that he ain’t okay, I think it's really just because he isn't John Key. It's a looooong shadow. 

 

The Solicitor General and her prosecution guidelines: 2/10 

Doing exactly the opposite of what the Government wants. Explain that. 

 

Liam Lawson: 8/10 

Right up there in terms of debut expectations. Love it or not, F1 is the pinnacle and it’s a truly global event and we are once again flying our flag through a brilliant talent we wish all the very best.

Americans seem to love New Zealand wine. 

Grafton-based Invivo was flying off US shelves, selling more than 40,000 cases of sauvignon blanc in 2024 alone.  

It’s set to be on show in Times Square at an exclusive wine exhibition this week, run by Wine Spectator.  

Co-founder Tim Lightbourne told Mike Hosking that both New Zealand wine and sauvignon blanc are growing as categories in the US market. 

He said that wine as a whole is relatively flat and driven by cabernets and chardonnays, so there’s room to NZ sauvs to grow.

It’s the beginning of a new era of football in New Zealand. 

Auckland FC is set to kick off their A-League career tomorrow at Mt Smart Stadium, backed by big names in the industry. 

Bill Foley, Ali Williams, Anna Mowbray, and more recently, Steven Adams, have put their money behind the team. 

CEO Nick Becker told Mike Hosking that the team is super ambitious, and while he won’t say straight away that they’ll win, it’s what they’re intending to go out and do.  

He said that they’ve invested in the team, and it’s come together really well.
