This week, the great teachers' strike - 50,000 of them. Primary and secondary, apparently an historic occasion...coming to all the schools near you.
Reportedly, two-thirds of the 50,000 are union members. Students reactions range from 鈥渢errific鈥 to 鈥渨hat are they? A bunch of wimps? Take the whole week off!鈥.
Changes to the governance of the Reserve Bank means a committee now makes decisions. Committees tend to be political.
Dr Greg Clydesdale, the author of The Politically Correct Economy, discusses the state of the NZ economy now, what we鈥檝e done wrong and what we need to do - it鈥檚 not flattering.
And of course, Mrs Producer delivers the goods.
