The Trans Tasman Pol Pod Episode 22

from The Trans Tasman Pol Pod · host tony2g

This time foreign policy has been the big issue in the past week, with Winston Peters and Chris Luxon at times seeming to be pursuing different agendas.  The GDP print surprised just about everyone, but forecasters are saying the next quarter's numbers won't be nearly so uplifting. The Government has been touting the success of its investment summit and the "golden visa" as it pushes its growth agenda, and David Seymour's Ministry for Regulation has a new target - the costs of winding up a deceased person's estate. And as foreign policy is such a major issue at the moment, we have Professor of International Relations at Otago University Robert Patman join us to mull over the implications of latest events.
