This weekend on The Nation...
Who wants to be a Green co-leader? In the first debate of the leadership contest, Kevin Hague, Gareth Hughes, Vernon Tava and James Shaw will discuss the party’s future direction, where they sit on the political spectrum, and who they think would be a palatable bed-fellow in the Beehive.
Then, as New Zealand gets heavier, a growing number of experts are suggesting diet and exercise alone can’t cure obesity. Our reporter Lucy Warhurst takes a look at the what could be New Zealand’s greatest public health threat.
We’ll discuss all that and more with our panel: New Zealand Herald columnist Fran O’Sullivan and Fairfax politics reporter Andrea Vance.
