Episode Details

John Banks spent 21 years in Parliament. For many of those years, he held high profile ministerial portfolios.

He was also a two term Mayor of Auckland.

This week, he gives us his stark and honest account of NZ’s current position.

He concludes that the election must provide “the change of direction the country so desperately needs”.

If you agree you’ll enjoy the discussion. If you’re happy with the status quo, you’ll find out why you’ll change your mind.

We comment on Jacinda Ardern and censorship, and Victor Davis Hanson on the “self-induced catastrophe of the U.S. southern border”

And we take you to The Mailroom.
