  • #BHN Prof David Brown on harsher sentences | Goldsmith v McAnulty on Breakfast | Brain drain returns
    Emeritus Professor David Brown joins us LIVE at 9pm to talk about the research behind what harsher prison penalties leads to. This government is telling us it's the answer...Professor Brown will explain to us if that is correct or not.Paul Goldsmith embarrassed himself on Breakfast this morning thinking he had turned up to a joke-fest with Kieran McAnulty...he had not as the Minister and the MP talked about bias in the media and the RSB and Tens of thousands of New Zealanders packed their bags for Australia last year, with a net migration loss across the Tasman of 30,000 people. Stats NZ released its net migration figures for 2024 on Thursday, which confirmed the “brain drain” remained high, at a rate similar to 2012 which bodes the question why do our best and brightest flee when a right wing party gets voted in?=================================Come support the work we're doing by becoming a Patron of ⁠⁠#BHN⁠⁠ www.patreon.com/BigHairyNews⁠=================================Merch available at www.BHNShop.nz Like us on Facebookwww.facebook.com/BigHairyNews Follow us on Twitter.@patbrittenden @Chewie_NZFollow us on BlueskyPat @patbrittenden.bsky.socialChewie @chewienz.bsky.socialEmily @iamprettyawesome.bsky.socialMagenta @xkaosmagex.bsky.social

  • #BHN Sam Vincent on PSNA ICC referral | Nicola Willis on FAMILYBOOST | UK 1st except when its Israel
    Lawyer Sam Vincent joins us LIVE at 9pm to talk about the Palestine Solidarity Network Aotearoa accusing some Government Ministers and businesses of having complicity in Israel’s war crimes. The PSNA have identified Chris Luxon, Winston Peters, Judith Collins who they say have approved NZ military and intelligence support for Israeli war crimes and Rocket Lab’s Peter Beck and Rakon’s Sinan Altug who have launched spy satellites which Israel uses to target civilians in Gaza and supplied military-grade crystal oscillators to the US to be put in missiles which Israel can deploy in Gaza and elsewhere respectively. These individuals and businesses have been referred to the International Criminal Court by the PSNA. Childcare rebates from the Government's flagship FamilyBoost scheme will rise with eligibility expanded, Finance Minister Nicola Willis has announced. At the election Nicola Willis said that 100,000 families would receive the Family Boost when in truth less that half that number received it and fewer that 50 families received the maximum amount.The right have been screaming isolationist policies for past few years. We've heard "USA first" form the likes of Trump and "UK First" from right wing commentators like Matt Goodwin and the likes of Reform UK. This passionate, foundational, never compromise desire seems to disappear though when Israel gets mentioned by the same groups or people.=================================Come support the work we're doing by becoming a Patron of ⁠⁠#BHN⁠⁠ www.patreon.com/BigHairyNews⁠=================================Merch available at www.BHNShop.nz Like us on Facebookwww.facebook.com/BigHairyNews Follow us on Twitter.@patbrittenden @Chewie_NZFollow us on BlueskyPat @patbrittenden.bsky.socialChewie @chewienz.bsky.socialEmily @iamprettyawesome.bsky.socialMagenta @xkaosmagex.bsky.social
