He's also committing $32 million into the existing settlement process.

2024/11/11

We are not unique, but we are most definitely different from the way we were. Once again we are into exam season, and once again we have the flurry of stories of questions that can't be answered, the tears that flow, and the end of the world that is ensuing. For comfort, the same number of stories are floating about the place currently in Australia. For context, the last time I did exams these tears and high drama were nowhere to be seen. So what has happened? Is it possible the way we study has

There's disappointment the Government's abuse-in-care apology doesn't come with a financial redress scheme. A Royal Commission report estimates 200,000 people have experienced harm in state and faith-based care between 1950 and 2019. The report has called for urgent financial redress, but the Government says it will not decide on a system until early next year. Cooper Legal Senior Associate Lydia Oosterhoff, who represents the survivors, told Mike Hosking that the Government's apology will mean

2024/11/07

Our old friend Adrian Orr has decided Donald Trump will be slightly inflationary and that peak free trade is over. On both counts he is right. He is not always right. He wasn’t right this week on the jobs, when he thought they would be 5% by way of unemployment. And I don’t think he's right when he talked in his fiscal risk report that more jobs will lead to more mortgage defaults on housing. If we have learned one thing out of this whole mad Covid experiment it is that New Zealanders and our
