This week on The Best of The Country, Jamie Mackay caught up with Rabobank's Head of Financial Markets Research Asia-Pacific Michael Every, who says China and the US are heading for a cold war.
This week's top interviews are:
Gray Baldwin:
As the debate over whether good pastoral land shouldgo to forestry, we talk to a man who spent five years converting forestry plantations to dairy farms.
The PM looks forward to opening the 51st Fieldays next Wednesday, she defends the Wellbeing Budget and the performance of some of her under-performing Ministers plus we agree to disagree over the speed limit.
Farmer Tom Martin:
Our UK correspondent talks Donald Trump, Boris Johnson, the Cricket World Cup and a drought to boot!
Rabobank's Head of Financial Markets Research Asia-Pacific has three words to describe the plight of the global economy and the implications for the NZ Ag sector - ugly, ugly, ugly - saying China and the US are effectively heading for a Cold War.
Simon Bridges:
We ask the Leader of the Opposition if last week's Budget leaks resulted in his best week in the job or was it just a smokes screen for burying National's bad news stories. We also discuss Labour's Cabinet reshuffle and whether the Nanny State will slow down our cars and our economy.
