Chris Hipkins: Labour Leader on the changing face of cabinet and NZ's media landscape

Holiday Breakfast Podcast

Labour Party Leader Chris Hipkins says yesterday’s cabinet reshuffle shows “the wheels are falling off already”.  

Paul Goldsmith will take over Melissa Lee’s role as Broadcasting Minister and Louise Upston will take over from Penny Simmonds as Disability Issues Minister. 

Hipkins tells Roman Travers Lee didn’t come up with a single new idea on how to deal with the changing media landscape in her six years as broadcasting spokesperson in opposition. He says one of the main problems for media is companies like Google and Facebook profiting from content that they don’t actually produce.
