We ask the Deputy PM if he's the Acting PM yet, why he's not nicer to the media and why did he back Shane Jones instead of Jacinda over his Fonterra comments.

Michael Every:

Rabobank's Senior Strategist Asia Pacific talks about the World Cup of Trade (as opposed to Football) and why New Zealand should be worried about Trump's trade war with China.
