Willie Jackson: Labour Minister maintains he's not deliberately disseminating misinformation after last night's debate

Election 2023 - A podcast by NZME

Willie Jackson maintains he's not deliberately disseminating disinformation - but says everyone's having an election year biffo. During a debate last night, Senior Labour Minister Jackson incorrectly maintained ACT and National planned to abolish the minimum wage. Jackson later clarified he was being facetious. He said he was in the heat of the moment, though he also agrees Kiwis should be aware of what politicians are saying. Jackson explained that we're in a campaign - and everyone is having a bit of a scrap. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
