This week on the Sunday Panel, Newstalk ZB host Roman Travers and Managing Director at 818, Chris Henry, joined in on a discussion about the following issues of the day - and more!

The Opportunity Party has launched a bid for the Mount Albert electorate ahead of the 2026 election. Do we see this going anywhere? Do we think Kiwis are looking for an alternative to the status quo? 

Is it time to cut the perks for MPs? The job commands a lot of time and there's a clear need for a travel allowance, but Heather du Plessis-Allan claimed earlier that the perks need to be examined. Do we agree with this? 

Six months after the Australian Government introduced its world-first social media ban, young people say it is not working. Are we surprised by this? What changes need to be made?
