The next phase of the Gaza peace talks could test Benjamin Netanyahu's loyalty.  

His Government's voting today on approving the first phase of a ceasefire plan, agreed with Hamas.  

It involves Israeli troops retreating to agreed lines, a cessation of fighting, and the release of hostages.  

Israeli journalist Haggi Matar told Mike Hosking the Israeli Prime Minister has effectively promised his base he'll continue the war and eradicate Hamas.  

He says it's pretty certain that's not what Qatar and the Trump administration are after, so hopefully they will continue to press both sides to agree.

Our wine industry continues to find success on the global stage. 

Marlborough’s Spy Valley achieved a clean sweep at the London Wine Competition, claiming seven golds for the seven wines they entered. 

It’s one of the industry’s most influential events, and on top of their golds, they were also named New Zealand’s Winery of the Year. 

Owner and Managing Director Amanda Johnson told Mike Hosking they aim to make really good quality wine at different price points, so it was a delight for their hardworking team to be rewarded across all the skews.

Australia’s cost of living has jumped yet again.  

Headline inflation jumped 1.1% in the March quarter, while the Consumer Price Index rose to 4.6% in the year to March, up from 3.7%.  

Surging oil prices have largely driven the jump, with petrol prices increasing by 32.8%, lifting transport costs by 9.2%. 

The Reserve Bank of Australia will be making an announcement regarding the Official Cash Rate on the 5th of May.  

Dr Rober Breunig, Director of the Tax and Transfer Policy Institute at the Australian National University, told Mike Hosking that while inflation has risen, they’re not seeing much impact in terms of economic growth and unemployment – the latter holding steady.  

He says the Reserve Bank will be concerned about inflation expectations getting out of control – if people expect high inflation to persist and start asking for wage increases, prices may be increased in anticipation, and it all snowballs.
