Description

Another week, another compilation of short videos explaining the news. This week: rumours of "needle spiking" at a music festival run rampant, despite no evidence of them occurring; Christopher Luxon reportedly makes a captain's call to water down Plan Change 120, reducing the number of homes that can be legally built in Auckland; and, with the election date confirmed, Robbie Nicol tells you every important date this election year for you to urgently add to your diary. Made with the support of NZ On Air.
