New Zealand and the Cook Islands agreements require regular consultation on defence and security issues.
But the Cooks have just signed a secret partnership with China, catching the NZ government unawares.
If that鈥檚 not bad enough, there is a second cause for major concern. It includes our Parliamentary Sovereignty, ownership of the entire NZ coastline and an activist Supreme Court indulging its collective ego.
Muriel Newman, an ex MP (nine years) and the founder of the New Zealand Centre for Political Research (), discusses the threats and dangers to the Parliament鈥檚 position as the country's ultimate lawmaker.
And on the subject of courts, we catch up with Michael Connett, the lawyer who fought and won against the EPA (the Environment Protection Agency) over compulsory fluoridation.
Whatever your thoughts on the subject, it鈥檚 a David and Goliath tale.
And we visit The Mailroom with Mrs Producer.
