Including the podcast of our weekly Hoon live webinar, plus five things that mattered this week, including the latest big climate, transport, housing and political news in Aotearoa and in geopolitics
I think Robert’s comment about NZers’ delusion that we’re special and the rest of the world only thinks good things about us is spot on. I also think we’re in for a rude awakening sometime soon.
The dialogue presentation from Hosts & Guests in the Hoon is highlight of my listening week.
Topics are presented with possible solutions or part solutions & the individual caring comes through with the facts. NZ is rich & under populated poverty should not exist.
What is happening in war torn areas is our business we are involved.
Appreciate the opportunity to hear the nuanced and relatively empathetic opinion of Robert Patman on the ongoing atrocity in the Middle East.
I was interested to hear Peter Bales dismay at scepticism of MSM and the need to use language carefully. Personally I think the language in MSM including RNZ is guilty of diminishing the asymmetry of the Middle East atrocity through describing it as a war and conflict, where it appears to be barbaric murder of corralled civilians.

Fantastic hour thank you Bernard for excellent information about the Palestinian/ Israel horrific war.
But just as depressing is the conversation about this incoming right wing government undoing all the gains over the last six years in every way!
Bernard please get yourself on Q&A or The Nation or these factual emails in our papers?
