Kiwi start-up Recorp, backed up by some of New Zealand's biggest names in business, has opened up its new aluminium facility. The company is promising to be the most innovative can producer in New Zealand - and a direct threat to Australian competitors. Chair Rob Fyfe says it's a huge relief to get the company up and running. "I've been going for three years, a lot of money - and it's just, in the last couple of months, finally taken shape."

Donald Trump is set to return to the White House - but the question remains over what will happen to his dozens of criminal charges. The former President will be the first person to take up the role while several criminal cases against him are pending. Cornell University law professor Randy Zelin says all criminal charges against Trump are likely to disappear. "The practical end of things wins out - and that is, you don't prosecute a sitting president, you don't prosecute an incoming president."

There was controversy in Parliament today, following the introduction of ACT's Treaty Principles Bill. If adopted, it would set out the principles of the Treaty of Waitangi in law and require them to be used when interpreting legislation. It faced tough questioning from Te Pati Maori, who made several attempts to have it withdrawn. Ngati Toa Iwi chief executive Helmut Modlik says he listened in the public gallery for an hour, then couldn't watch any longer. "I gave him a direct look... and then

Foreign Affairs Minister Winston Peters says we shouldn't get ahead of ourselves worrying about Donald Trump's trade agenda. Trump has soared to victory in the US, nailing a historic second presidential term. He campaigned on introducing up to 20 percent tariffs on global imports - and 60 percent on Chinese imports. Peters says we have a strong case to make ourselves an exception, due to the fairness of our market. "We pay first-world wages in first-world conditions, we're not an exploitative

David Seymour’s Treaty Principles Bill has been introduced to Parliament today, sparking protests outside the Beehive. The Bill was introduced a full 11 days earlier than expected - and it proposed re-writing and codifying the key principals of the Treaty of Waitangi.

There's uncertainty among the Democrats as Donald Trump prepares to take up the White House reins. The Republican Party has attained a decisive victory, winning the presidency with Donald Trump, majority in the Senate - and holding a strong lead in the House of Representatives. David Litt, a former speechwriter for Barack Obama, says inflation and economic troubles contributed to a difficult environment for the Democrats. "It was really a full-scale shift compared to 2020.

Let me tell you, it was absolutely no surprise to me to see my Facebook friends going crazy over Trump winning the election last night - and there's been plenty of hysterical predictions now that he's won. My absolute favourite one was from my husband, who said that Trump would take us to the brink of war. Hello - the world is already at war, we don't need to be taken to the brink, we're already there. We've got two significant wars under way in two of the most worrying parts of the world - Europe

To the Treaty Principles Bill. Despite David Seymour's best efforts to pretend that there's absolutely nothing to see here, there is no doubt in my mind that the government is planning to introduce the Treaty Principles Bill tomorrow to try to hide it - because they know full well, we're all going to be completely obsessed and distracted by the US election. They know that if they get it out on Thursday, tomorrow, it's before the planned Hikoi even sets off on Monday. I think that indicates that

To achieve this, the bank has told Australian farmers to get emissions down to 0.85 tons of carbon per ton of milk – but Kiwi farmers must get emissions down even further to 0.75 per ton of milk.

New Zealand business wait with bated breath to find out who will become president in the US. It currently seems that Trump will take the win. He has promised big tariffs on goods from overseas. Former Trade Minister and former NZ ambassador to the US Tim Groser tells Heather du Plessis-Allan the Democratic party’s cardinal mistake was fronting a candidate that was “never going to succeed in presenting herself as a candidate for change”.
