Voting officially opened yesterday with almost half a million people casting their ballots ahead of the May 3 election. Yesterday was also the third debate between our two federal leaders. Australian National University Political Scientist Dr Jill Sheppard told Luke Bradnam on 4BC Breakfast, "It felt like they were trying to have a bit of a crack in these last few weeks of the campaign, one week and a half to go now and they probably should have done that much earlier."See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Adam Jasser speaks with Paul Taylor, a freelance columnist for The Guardian and veteran Brussels think-tanker and journalist, about last week's EU summit. Key topics included the ongoing farmers' protests, as well as discussions on the prioritisation of defence matters on the agenda as leaders deliberated on how the EU could bolster its own industry while promptly extending aid to Ukraine.

A two-day summit of EU leaders is underway in Brussels, with support for Ukraine in the spotlight. Kyiv is hoping to gain accession to the European Union, as well as $58 billion funding to take the Ukrainian economy through 2024. But any decision must be unanimous and Hungary's president Viktor Orban has taken an anti-Ukraine stance. We hear from a former Ukrainian trade minister and a business owner in Lviv. The presidents of Venezuela and Guyana are meeting in St Vincent and The Grenadines to discuss a dispute over the oil rich Essequibo region. St Vincent and the Grenadines prime minister Ralph Gonsalves gives us the background to the dispute. With the festive season in full swing in the UK, office workers from Salford in the north of England tell us whether they would prefer a Christmas party or a bonus this year.

Following some disagreement and delay, the Press Leaders' debate will finally take place in Christchurch this evening. The two Chrises were set to face off in the notoriously rowdy debate last week, but plans were scuppered when Labour Leader Chris Hipkins tested positive for Covid-19. After much toing and froing, the only debate to take place in the South Island is due to kick off shortly, but with different participants. Political reporter Katie Scotcher speaks to Lisa Owen from outside the Christchurch Town Hall. [embed] https://players.brightcove.net/6093072280001/default_default/index.html?videoId=6338756262112

Catholic leaders have gathered in Rome to debate issues around women's ordination and greater inclusion for LGBT believers. But while women and lay people have been given a vote for the first time, conservative cardinals have warned of a “hostile takeover.” We talk to people working for change in the church, even if that change still feels very far off.

Recycling is not the beginning nor end when it comes to climate change. In fact, it comes way down the list of things you can personally do to help save the planet. 

"Defeated" and "disheartened" is how a young voter's feeling after she says the two Chrises "bounced around" her question in last night's leader's debate. Sky Rens is a waitress on Auckland's Northshore earning the living wage of $26 an hour. In TVNZ's leaders debate the 23 year old asked question of both Chrises. Chris Hipkins stressed again that a wealth and capital gains tax is absolutely off the table if he is Prime Minister after the election. And Christopher Luxon told Sky "help is on the way" and as a "medium" income earner she'd get about fifty dollars a fortnight back under his party's policy. Sky Rens says she considers herself a fairly average income earner. [embed] https://players.brightcove.net/6093072280001/default_default/index.html?videoId=6337467531112

The two men vying to be Prime Minister have ventured back out on the campaign trail with renewed energy after last night's televised face-off. The first leaders' debate was a sometimes scrappy, but ultimately unspectacular affair. Chris Hipkins emerged today with some fierce rhetoric, while Christopher Luxon fended off questions about coalitions. And late this afternoon Labour leader Chris Hipkins has corrected an answer he gave in last night's debate. He said the government had banned fizzy drinks in primary schools. However, they didn't. When he was education minister, the government consulted on it. Mr Hipkins says he asked the Ministry of Education to do some further work on it, and that was late last year. Labour's election policy is to ban fizzy drinks in primary and secondary schools. Here's our deputy political editor Craig McCulloch.

The two 'Chrises' vying to be the next Prime Minister will go head to head in their first leader's debate tonight. Both politicians are playing down their preparation, and prospects, ahead of the TVNZ showdown. Our political reporter Anneke Smith has more.

Greece's party leaders held a debate on Wednesday, touching on everything from the economy to foreign policy. While the three hour debate didn't produce a clear winner, it was an opportunity for the party leaders to speak directly to voters. In the meantime, polls are indicating that New Democracy has recovered some of its lost ground, raising questions about what kind of coalition could be in the cards after elections. Tom Ellis, the editor in chief of Kathimerini English Edition, joins Thanos Davelis to break down the main takeaways from this week's debate, explore what impact it could have on voting trends, and look at what the latest polls tell us about the prospects of a coalition government after elections.You can read the articles we discuss on our podcast here:Party leaders debate economy, foreign policyErdogan speaks to Kathimerini, calls for new era in Greece-Turkey relationsMitsotakis hopes for better relations with Turkey if reelected as Greek premierChristodoulides, Netanyahu continue ties in chummy reunionPresident Christodoulides in Israel for two-day visit
