Today on The
Wire
bNews with Olivia
It's
8.30pm, you've just left the office after a late night at
work and you need to get home. Your cars at home, because
like all good Aucklanders, you caught the bus this morning.
As you step up to the rank, a thousand questions race
through your mind...Which one doesn't look dodgy? Does that
car look safe? Will he take me where I want to go? And will
he keep his hands to himself? It may be agressive
questioning for the simple task of catching a cab but
it's a very common occurance. Today we speak to Raewyn
Cranch-Shaw director of Angel Taxis. They use only female
drivers. But is this a human rights breech? What will they
do if a boy asks for a ride? We find out today.
Pauline Hanson is being called Australias first
political prisioner. Last week she was jsentenced to 3 years
prison for electoral fraud. We catch up with Public Address'
Rob O'Neil from Sydney.
Scott Donaldson, and
Kevin Biggar plan to row the Atlantic Ocean next month. It
is a distance of 2800 nautical miles. They're currently in
training, we speak to them directly from the climate
chamber.
Green Dean will join us again for the
Green Desk
And Monica Dwyer will wrap up today
with the Magazine Review
Aucklanders can
tune in at 95 on the FM dial.
