from Duncan Garner - Editor In Chief · host rova

Why are we importing 111,000 foreign workers when thousands of New Zealanders cannot find a job?

We ask why Christopher Luxon and the government are letting Kiwis miss out in their own country. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
