Chlöe Swarbrick & Gerry Brownlee | Democracy, Tax & Free Speech

The Greens are being hammered by the Right as "envy politics" for their tax plan — but is that fair? And is our Parliament actually functioning as a democracy should? Martyn Bradbury goes deep with two very different guests, then turns the panel loose on a week in NZ politics that's been anything but quiet. 🎙️ 1-on-1 in 10 with Green Party co-Leader Chlöe Swarbrick The Right calls it envy. Chlöe Swarbrick calls it a solution. Tonight, Martyn sits down with the Green Party co-Leader to unpack their tax plan, the real cost of inaction on climate change and inequality, and what AI means for New Zealand's economic future. Is this the most credible alternative economic vision on offer — or is it political dreaming? 🎙️ Extra 1-on-1 in 10 with Speaker of the House, Gerry Brownlee Speaker Gerry Brownlee joins Martyn to talk about the health of democracy inside Parliament — scrutiny week, its future, and his decision to reach out to Verity Johnson. What does it mean when the Speaker himself is making moves to reconnect with a public that has largely tuned out? And is Parliament actually holding power to account? 🔥 Political Panel Discussion Martyn is joined by three of the sharpest political minds in the country: ⚡ Matthew Hooton — Editor of The Post ⚡ Simon Wilson — Listener Columnist ⚡ John Tamihere — Māori Party President
