The distraught father of missing British backpacker, Grace Millane, has spoken to media in Auckland. His 22-year-old daughter was last seen at Auckland's SkyCity Casino, on Saturday night.
She hasn't spoken with her family in over a week - and didn't respond to birthday messages on Sunday. David Millane grappled with his emotions as he explained how concerned the family is for her welfare. He says she has never been out of contact for this amount of time - and usually checks in on social media daily. More than 25 police are investigating the disappearance.
Also today, a proposal for the biggest shake-up to the education system in 30 years, and the aviation strike which could cause huge delays to tens of thousands of passengers just before Christmas.
