Reviewing Wayne Brown's first six months as Mayor

A damning report has been released into Auckland Council’s response to the January flooding, and has highlighted a ‘system failure’ of leadership in the first 12 hours of the response. 

The report comes out as Mayor Wayne Brown marks six months in office, adding more criticism to an already divisive and controversial time wearing the mayoral chains.  

So how has Brown’s time in office gone, and can he come back from such a damning report? 

NZ Herald deputy head of news Tom Dillane and senior writer Simon Wilson join guest host Chelsea Daniels to analyse the report, and discuss six months of the Wayne Brown era.
