Episode Details

We’ve got a Code Blue on our hands. Today we dive into the explosive claims from a senior health leader who says our hospitals are so stretched they’d be treated like a patient in full emergency mode. We talk about why Kiwi-trained nurses are being left on the bench while overseas staff walk straight into jobs, and why the system feels like it’s working against its own people.

Chris Luxon also gives the green light to move-on orders for Auckland’s homeless, and the team unpacks whether the plan is workable or just wishful thinking. Then we check in on Labour’s conference, their “ready to govern” pitch, and the policies that look good on paper but come without the numbers to back them.

Plus, Duncan shares a private nursing job opportunity for anyone keen to put their skills to use. Big stories, big opinions, and plenty to chew on.
