Very enlightening interview on Al Jazerra with Professor Richard Wolff on the state of the US 'empire'.

Having just watched this mornings Q&A program it was a welcome change to see a politician actual answering the questions put to him. That would be in Chippy's case, which contrasts with the previous interview with Simeon Brown who seems to have adopted the repeating of pre-cooked statements instead of giving straight answers as has become the Luxon approach to interviewers. It also seems to demonstrate how a seasoned politician deals with the voting public compared to Luxon's 'CEO' background.
