Episode Synopsis

The Government is copping some flak overs its decision to stop same day enrolment for voters, and its petty decision to change the cover of the New Zealand passport so the English words are placed above the Te Reo. The Reserve Bank warns global turmoil could affect the economy, with weaker demand for exports and increased uncertainty.  Farmers are more confident, but why wouldn't they be, with a Government which appears to be at the beck and call. And the education system is set for more tinkering - to discuss this, we're joined by Education expert, Professor Gavin Brown from Auckland University.
