1On today's Wire, we were joined by former Green Party MP Sue Bradford to discuss the resignation and possible suspension of two current MPs, following co-leader Metiria Turei's admitting she committed benefit fraud while in her 20s. We then discuss this issue with Māori Party co-leader Marama Fox. On the Green Desk we speak to Lilly Peacocke who has been on a week-long research internship with Dolphin Conservation group MOM. We speak to the students delivering a petition to Parliament calling for better sex education in high schools and talk to the National Council of Women about why they support it. Mack Smith chats to the owner of a New Zealand research vessel which has angered Vanuatu’s government by operating in waters it disputes with France. Finally, we look back at a mud festival controversy which brewed over in Rotorua over the weekend, involving fears of an outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease.
