Wayne Brown wants to 'fix' Auckland - how does he plan to do that?

Auckland has spoken, and the country’s largest city has a new mayor in Wayne Brown. The former mayor of the Far North says his win gives him a mandate for change, with key policies focused on shaking up council-controlled organisations and cutting costs.  But how exactly will he deliver on those promises? And with less than a third of Aucklanders bothering to vote, how secure is that mandate? Today, NZ Herald senior writer Simon Wilson joins Damien to discuss the changes ahead under Tāmaki Makaurau’s new mayor. Follow The Front Page on iHeartRadio or wherever you get your podcasts.
