Welcome to your weekly roundup of the biggest stories shaping New Zealand’s political and policy landscape. This week, we dive into the Green Party’s bold move on mining consents and what it means for investment confidence, dissect the Supreme Court’s game-changing ruling on Uber drivers and the ripple effects for the gig economy, and go inside the explosive police corruption report that’s rocking trust in law enforcement. We’ll also break down the government’s shift on clean car standards and what it means for EVs, give you the latest on Wellington’s big tunnel news, and unpack the ongoing drama within Te Pāti Māori. From constitutional controversy to quickfire takes on sustainability and party polls, we’ve got your peaks, your pits, and plenty in between.
