We ask the PM whether she yearns for the good old days of FPP when it was just Labour v National and no errant coalition partners to contend with.

Jim Hopkins:

Is rural raconteur who takes umbrage and finds nothing amusing at all in Chloe Swarbrick's comments that, although she loves farmers, she wants to retrain the poor misguided souls into new career options.
