The Whip for 18 March 2026

Join Wallace for an explosive half-hour of politics. He is joined
by panellists Jonathan Milne, Maria Slade and Sue Kedgley. They
begin with the turmoil surrounding Chris Hipkins after claims
were made on social media by his ex-wife. Then they look at the
government's handling of the oil crisis, with 49 days left in
stock. And as war rages on in Iran and neighbouring regions, are
cracks staring to show in Donald Trump's approach? After that,
they discuss an interesting proposition by Auckland Mayor Wayne
Brown: throw the two major parties into coalition together.
