Today on The Country, Jamie Mackay hosted a slightly shorter show, as technical difficulties cut The Country in half.
On with the show:
Chris Luxon:
National’s leader talks about Labour’s “Five Years of Failure”, whether his McDonald’s photo op was a publicity stunt that could have back-fired, and whetherhe’s stuck between a rock and a hard place on He Waka Eke Noa.
We ask one of New Zealand’s leading sheep breeders if he is in danger of becoming an extinct species. Plus, he explains why he’s part of a private syndicate looking to prevent a large North Island station from going to carbon farming.
Andrew Johnstone:
We talk to the star of a new Kiwi documentary - When The Cows Come Home - and we give you the opportunity to win tickets to Thursday’s premiere by texting COW to 5009.
