Monday Wire with Kim Choe
11th May 2009
12:00 bNews, Weather and Surf
12:15 The Fight For Mt Albert – John Boscawen (ACT), Melissa Lee (National), Russel Norman (Greens), David Shearer (Labour)
The battle for the electorate seat vacated by Helen Clark has started in earnest. We meet the four main candidates to talk about the issues they think will be pertinent to the June 13 by-election, and to find out how in touch they really are with the constituency.
1:20 Putting Homelessness in Focus – Charlie Bleakley, filmmaker
The Wellingtonian’s quest to end homelessness begins with this documentary, screening in Auckland as part of the Human Rights Film Festival. It brings together the ideas of those who have worked the homeless, researched homlessness, or have been homeless themselves. Are we as a society guilty of recognising that this is a problem?
1:40 The Green Desk
Simon Miller talks to Hadleigh Averill about the upcoming world record tree planting attempt on Motuihe Island next weekend. See www.theno.org.nz for more information.
