We talk US college campuses and crackdowns on protest, the complicity of University administrations in authoritarian actions and how this looks in the NZ context. Josephine is recently back from India where national elections are just getting underway, we discuss democracy in the Global South. And Winston Peters is making a joke of NZ again with his recent comments about an Australian politician and AUKUS.
(The title refers to NYPD finding a copy of the so-titled textbook and attempting to use it as evidence against campus protestors.)

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?

Description

Lots in the news on the news this week with major decisions being made for both Newshub and TVNZ. Is Murdoch eyeing up NZ shores? We discuss the cynicism and nastiness of the Cass Report and the stitch up between political and media classes to attack trans healthcare. And government corruption is at a premium as the Fast Track process gathers momentum.
