The former news anchor has been given a suspended six-month sentence for soliciting indecent images of children. UK Correspondent Rod Liddle told Mike Hosking the BBC still paid Edwards his salary after being arrested and has now asked for it to be paid back. He says there's a view the BBC protects those it values from public scrutiny. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy

You don’t have to be a professional golfer to know it’s an expensive sport. New Zealand’s highest-ranked men’s golfer, Ryan Fox, has lifted the lid on the pressures he’s faced this year dealing with a hip injury while working to retain his PGA Tour card for 2025. Despite the financial challenges, Fox emphasises that money isn’t the be-all and end-all of his career. It’s been a tough year for Fox after two very lucrative years in which he made $11 million. Over that period he had three DP World

A dismal picture is being painted of our tamariki's health, with more being hospitalised for preventable diseases. A new Cure Kids report reveals unacceptably high hospitalisation rates for respiratory, skin and rheumatic conditions, mental health issues, and dental diseases. It finds Māori and Pasifika children and those from lower income households are disproportionately affected. Chief executive Frances Soutter says we need to address social factors like child poverty and create more

The Prime Minister is making no apologies for curtailing the civil rights of gang members. Documents show Justice Minister Paul Goldsmith initially rejected a police request to ban gang patches in the homes of repeat offenders, but then changed his mind. That's despite objections from his own ministry, Te Puni Kokiri, and the Privacy Commissioner. Christopher Luxon told Mike Hosking he's not concerned about gang members losing their rights. He says gang members make up one quarter of one

Mike's Minute: Why did we need a directive on race?

2024/09/15

When a Government has to issue an email directive the way they did on Friday over race, there is something profoundly wrong with the country. Essentially it says the public service, whether on health, education, justice, welfare etc. - can not act on race. It says they can't see race as an individual entitlement that allows services, or money, or support to be a determining criteria. This is part of the coalition agreement - as directed by ACT and New Zealand First. National Party supporters might

The Government's proposing new criteria to define who's a contractor and who's an employee. 'Contractors' will need to have signed a contract, stating they're an independent contractor. They must be able to subcontract out any set hours, they can't be prevented from working for other people, and they can't be fired for not taking on extra tasks.

The New Zealand electric vehicle market has run out of charge.

Imported Motor Vehicle Industry chief executive Greig Epps says it's left many importers with excess stock. However, he says hybrid sales, on the other hand, continue to stay strong.
