Tonight on The Huddle: Sherson Willis PR’s Trish Sherson and Child Fund’s Josie Pagani.  There’s some unanswered questions about the cost of commercial flights  to Japan for Prime Minister Chris Luxon and his delegation.  Their Defence Force plane broke down yesterday in Papua New Guinea -- the latest in a string of issues.  Acting Prime Minister Winston Peters was asked if it's fair the taxpayer has to pick up the tab.   Peters said “In an emergency, you take emergency action.”  Josie Pagani told Heather du Plessis-Allan “The Prime Minister is the PR frontperson – but the work is the people with the Prime Minister.”  Pagani said “This is an absolute disaster, really.”  LISTEN ABOVE. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
