The Whip for 8 April 2026

Join Wallace Chapman for New Zealand's most explosive 30 minutes
of politics. He is joined by panellists Peter Dunne, Lillian
Hanly and Corin Dann. On the show tonight: the extraordinary last
24 hours in the US-Israel Iran War. Seemingly a full-scale
destruction of Iran was avoided at the 11th hour with Donald
Trump giving the peace process another two weeks. Another
political poll, the Taxpayer Union-Curia poll isn't great news
for National, but good news for NZ First, and The Opportunity
Party. The OCR - analysis on the Reserve bank's moves and what it
means for politics.
