Tonight on The Huddle, Jordan Williams from the Taxpayers' Union and Jack Tame from ZB's Saturday Mornings and Q&A joined in on a discussion about the following issues of the day - and more!

It's been confirmed Smith & Caughey's will close for good by next year. Is this due to the ongoing economic downturn - or is it a sign of bigger problems for the retail sector? 

The Commerce Commission has revealed it plans to raise power bills to pay for work on the lines next year. Is this a necessity we have to accept?

A lobby group has urged MPs to tighten their travel spending as many people are forced to cut costs in their own lives. Is this a fair call?

It's Budget Day tomorrow - what are we looking out for?
