In this week’s episode of Newsroom’s weekly politics podcast, we ask who needs evidence for policies, we talk ferries and pull apart the latest polls

Recommendations:

Marc – A telling article from the US on Heatmap about that country’s troubles building one big power line:

Laura  – An Associated Press backgrounder on what led to thousands storming Kenya’s Parliament in what started as disputes over new taxes and ended up in a deadly clash

Tim – Geoffrey Palmer’s speech we carried on Newsroom: NZ is an executive paradise, not democratic paradise
