Prime Minister John Key was quesioned about everything today by Jamie Mackay Photo / Doug Sherring

Prime Minister John Key was quesioned about everything today by Jamie Mackay Photo / Doug Sherring

Let the sweet, soothing sax of Careless Whisper introduce the Prime Minister John Key this week. Smoooooothe.

Now down to business. The Country's Jamie Mackay wants to know what's going on with pretty much everything at the moment and he's here to ask the Prime Minister some tough questions.

First up; what does John Key think about his Aussie counterpart Malcolm Turnbull? Is he in trouble?

While we're at it; let's ask the Prime Minister about Labour's birthday, the housing crisis, the OCR, Hillary Clinton and Tony Blair.

This is a lot of ground to cover in one interview. Perhaps John Key will find he's never gonna dance again due to fatigue.
