Description: Minister of Social Development, Paula Bennett, sits in a comfortable chair watching television. Nearby is a newspaper with a headline that reads 'Ash grounds Aussie airlines'. A news item on TV says that 'Govt. is being asked what it is doing to arrest record numbers of Kiwis leaving for Australia....' Paula Bennett is on the phone saying 'Ask Air NZ to ground flights too....' Context - Ash from the Cordon Caulle volcano in Chile grounded hundreds of flights and stranded tens of thousands of passengers last week when it hovered over several cities in Australia and New Zealand. A record 3,300 New Zealanders moved to Australia last month - the highest figure in 32 years. ASB chief economist Nick Tuffley joined Firstline this morning to explain why so many New Zealanders are moving to Australia, and how much of this years outflow can be attributed to the Christchurch earthquakes.

Description: Prime Minister John Key blushes with embarrassment as he stands in a pool of light beneath a bright lamp that is fixed above the door of the 'OZ Press' (Australian press). On the door-handle is a notice that reads 'Gone fishin'.' He says into his mobile phone 'Yeah, I'm with the Aussie Press now, talk about being in the spotlight...' On the ground is a newspaper with a headline reading 'PM's visit low key in Aus.' Context - John Key's visit is receiving scant mentions in the Australian media probably because the Australian media are more interested in the ailing state of the Labor Government which continues to plummet in the polls - a recent Newspoll has the Labor Party at 31 per cent, behind the opposition Coalition on 46 per cent.
