It s six months since new MP Dr Ayesha Verrall left the frying pan of her life as an infectious diseases specialist during Covid-19 and jumped straight into the fire of Cabinet. Verrall was not surprised by the workload. But aspects of it remind her of her time doing night shifts as a junior doctor at Wellington Hospital. I didn t really understand how much physical stamina is involved in this job - I guess there s the carousel of continuous meetings and commitments. It feels like when I used to do nights as a House Officer.

James ‘Jim’ Hocking
James ‘Jim’ Hocking was born in Nambour as the second child of William and Eva Hocking’s five children. When war was declared in 1939, three Hocking boys were ready to sign up. As soon as Jim turned 18, he enlisted with the Citizens Military Forces before being discharged after four months to take up acceptance in the Royal Australian Air Force in 1942.
He was sent to England to train on the heavy bombers of the RAF during World War Two. On July 28, 1944, the 21-year-old RAAF pilot was flying a Stirling Bomber or “flying coffin” during a final training run before heading into battle.
