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.
