Description
Lots to discuss in domestic NZ politics this week, but we start with the discovery of mass graves in Gaza and the response to that on US university campuses. In NZ the National coalition is going after the gangs and few people are speaking out for human rights for fear of the association. Two ministers are demoted within 6 months and a third has been summonsed by the Waitangi Tribunal - where are the narratives about chaos and instability?
