Justice is set to be served to nearly every member of the Comancheros motorcycle gang, but that won't be the end of New Zealand's drug trade. A three year police operation has resulted in 137 charges being laid. Canterbury University sociology professor Jarrod Gilbert says it's decimated the Comancheros, and sends a message that any high profile organised crime group has a large target on their back. But he says we can't expect this to significantly disrupt drug trade long term - as supply

There’s an increasing demand for growers in Canterbury. A reliable water supply and cheaper land than Marlborough and Hawke's Bay are attracting horticulture suppliers to the region. Vegetables NZ chair John Murphy says it's great to see things like Rockit apples grown in South Canterbury. He told Mike Hosking it will help achieve the goal of doubling export values, and new opportunities mean fresh produce can continue to be supplied to New Zealand.

There are concerns over young New Zealanders' ability to handle adversity. New figures show more than 21% of 15 to 24 year olds face psychological struggles. It's prompted calls for more to be done to build resilience in children, starting at early childhood centres through to high schools.

Synlait could be going from the cream of the crop to skimming the edge of survival. Shareholders of the dairy processor are gathering at its Dunsandel site today to vote on a proposed $218 million capital raise. Board chair George Adams told Mike Hosking his confidence is high, and it would allow Synlait to move forward from the de-leveraging.

Mike's Minute: We need minerals and can't ignore it

The Mike Hosking Breakfast ·

2024/09/16

The most telling part of the release of the draft of our critical minerals list is that we have never as a country developed a comprehensive picture of our mineral needs and weaknesses. The obvious question is: why not? Part of a strong resilient economy is when you do things yourself. As a small country we can't do everything because we don’t have domestic heft. We don’t have a natural domestic market for a lot of large-scale operations. So, in some cases where we do things at scale, we sell it

The former news anchor has been given a suspended six-month sentence for soliciting indecent images of children.

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.

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.

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. Workplace Relations Minister Brooke van Velden says the Government is looking to change the law next year. "Most of this has been built through case law
