Erika Harvey from Lobby for Good updates Paul Brennan on the pushback against Tauranga City Council’s sale of the Marine Precinct, which their mayor admits was a ‘sh*t deal’.
THE SIGNPOST
Fresh on RCR today, Paul Brennan speaks with Tauranga City Councillor Glen Crowther about calls for an independent inquiry into the Council Commission and water reforms. Erika Harvey from Lobby for Good explains the Marine Precinct sale, the Council’s denial of involvement, and Mayor Drysdale’s admission that they would exit the deal if possible. Paul also talks to Whangārei Mayor Vince Cocurullo about their fight with the Ministry of Health over water fluoridation, the legal risks, and potential financial penalties ahead of today’s extraordinary meeting.
Back from a wee break, Simon O’Connor returns to chat with Labour MP Ingrid Leary about New Zealand’s shifting political landscape and party polling.
If you missed last week’s RCR360 on digital manipulation, Orwell’s Nightmare, you can catch it now, along with Alistair Harding’s deep dive with Professor Robert Epstein on Google’s darker influence and Maree Buscke’s interview with David Charalambous on government use of behavioural psychology.
And catch Rodney Hide’s webinar with Dr Sarah Farrant, Health Outside The System, exploring alternatives to pharmaceutical healthcare.
