To the protest outside of Parliament now as it heads into its 14th day. Over the weekend, an alliance of various groups involved with the protest have been attempting to clean up it's image, which has been widely condenmed for its impact on the Capital city and its residents. On Friday they sent members of the media a statement in which they apologised for the abuse that they had suffered at the hands of the protesters, and yesterday another expressing sympathy for the police.

We also speak to National Maori Authority Matthew Tukaki and hear from RNZ reporter Charlotte Cook with a live update from Parliament grounds.
