The business sector seems to be realising this Government is not what they signed up for, with the latest blow to their corporate well being set to strike not at their profits, via mismanagement of the economy, but at them personally through reforms to fair trading rules. The latest Roy Morgan poll shows an effectively even split between the National-led Government on 48.5%, up 2 points from a month earlier, marginally in front of the Labour-Greens-Te Pāti Māori Opposition now on 47.5%, down 2.5 points. National will be pleased to see its support up 2.5 points to 31.5%. The Government has released the Defence Industry Strategy, which optimistically details how Defence and industry will work together to deliver the Defence Capability Plan (DCP) while building a strong, resilient industry delivering economic growth and growing export markets. And we're joined by University of Auckland Academic Dr Sasha Maher to discuss the Government's lack of leadership on the increasingly important issue of climate change adaptation.
