Today on The Country, Jamie Mackay caught up with Judith Collins for a trip down memory lane with her new autobiography Pull No Punches.

On with the show:

Judith Collins:

Today we concentrate on the early years, growing up on a Waikato dairy farm with hard-working Labour-voting parents, and her interesting back story before heading to the Beehive.

Jeremy Rookes and Stu Loe:
