    The Panel with Claire Amos and Ed McKnight

    23/10/2026 | 47 mins.
    First up, the fallout from the resignation of Labour candidate Kerrin Leoni after a video emerged of her campaigning alongside Mongrel Mob members. Then, there's only two days left to enroll before the election of 7 November. The panel talks to the campaign director of On A Roll, a campaign to get young people enrolled. Are young people really disengaged from politics and the election process? The panel finds out. And Australia has a scheme by which car manufacturers must make more information available to independent mechanics. Those in favour of the scheme say it saves motorists thousands of dollars and that it needs to happen here. Finally, after a wave to discussion and memories from our listeners earlier in the week, we have returned to the topic of pneumatic tubes. The panel talks to Nick Annear, the co-owner of C1 Espresso in Christchurch who, we are told, uses the said tubes to delivery fries to customers.
