In this episode of Political Playback – new home schooling reporting raises red flags; biology wins the 1st round regarding the definition of women; Labour admits it will not release ‘cornerstone’ policy costing and job modelling until after the election, citing Treaty of Waitangi concerns; under-16 social media ban bill on hold – now what; Tamatha Paul and violence against Maori women – apparently; Marama Davidson from the Greens relives the Oxford Debate; is the school curriculum delay a wise move – but what does this mean for RSE changes; is the Budget cuts to the public service a good or bad thing; good character assessments for sex offenders to be removed by National; NZ First wants to buy a bank and start KiwiSaver from birth; and should National deliberately lose some electorate seats so their star MPs can get in on the list.
