Is Luxon Finished? Economic Pain, Coalition Chaos and the Fight for Aotearoa

from The Bradbury Group · host Martyn Bradbury

Is Christopher Luxon’s leadership on borrowed time? Martyn Bradbury is joined by Green Party candidate Tania Waikato, columnist Simon Wilson and political commentator Dr Harpreet Singh to debate National’s leadership turmoil, Winston Peters’ growing influence, anti-migrant politics and the Greens’ plan to invest $2 billion in marae as frontline civil defence hubs. Plus, economist Cameron Bagrie examines rising unemployment, falling house prices and the global forces reshaping New Zealand’s economy, while Professor Matt Roskruge reveals how the downturn is hitting Māori communities. It’s sharp, fiery and unapologetic. This is The Bradbury Group, New Zealand’s best weekly political argument. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
