Chris Hipkins: Labour leader on ACT's call to leave the Paris Agreement, Foreign buyers, ditching open-plan classrooms

Canterbury Mornings with John MacDonald

Labour and National appear to be aligned on the Paris Climate Agreement.

Yesterday ACT called for New Zealand to leave unless the terms of the deal change, but the Prime Minister said no.

Labour's Chris Hipkins echoed Christopher Luxon, telling John MacDonald leaving the deal would cause more harm than good.

He says it would be a disaster for us – walking away from those commitments would mean people overseas would stop buying our products.

Hipkins says our largest export industries rely on New Zealand’s clean, green reputation.
