In conversation with Rodney Hide, children's author Amy Brooke delivers a bold critique of New Zealand’s political and education systems, exposing government overreach, the erosion of democracy, and the ideological capture of institutions. She champions the need for real political reform, drawing inspiration from Switzerland’s model, and calls for an end to top-down legislation, education centralisation, and media bias. With eye-opening insights into power, policy, and the fight for free speech, her revelations highlight critical issues.
