New drug data shows a fall in the cost of methamphetamine seems to relate to increased consumption. The New Zealand Drug Trends Survey reveals a gram cost about $334 last year - compared to $563 in 2017. Over the same period, the proportion of respondents using the drug every week rose from 27 percent to 57. Massey University drug researcher Chris Wilkins says that like with any commodity, people will consume more when the price is down. "It seems that it's just current users that are using more because the price is cheaper." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to understand and optimize their financial position in a constantly shifting tax environment. Top Takeaways Accountancy is a dynamic field, not just "men in grey suits." Staying current with tax legislation is crucial for effective advice. The UK is experiencing a "brain drain" of high-net-worth individuals. Changes to domicile rules are driving an exodus of taxpayers. Losing high earners impacts social services and the average person. The Laffer Curve illustrates optimal tax rates for revenue. Startup entrepreneurs can use VAT thresholds for competitive pricing. Partnerships can optimize income tax by splitting profits. Limited Liability Partnerships (LLPs) offer protection and tax benefits. Tax planning must align with legal entity structure. HMRC scrutinizes property incorporation schemes. Section 24 (Tenant Tax) significantly impacts buy-to-let landlords. Furnished Holiday Lettings tax rules have become less generous. Unmarried couples face distinct capital gains and inheritance tax challenges. Marriage invalidates previous wills in the UK. Pension inheritance tax rules have changed, impacting legacy planning. Proactive tax planning is essential to avoid detrimental surprises. "To know and not to do is to not know." "People who fail to plan, plan to fail." Sound Bites "Life started from a tax point of view when my mum... went to see her accountant." "The image of accountancy is that it's like men in grey suits and... it's quite boring but it's not at all." "You gotta keep on reading about tax and learning about it." "There seems to be a bit of an exodus from the UK right now." "If the 1% the top 1% go, who's gonna pay the tax?" "You just gotta kind of block out the noise and just keep your eyes focused on whatever it is that you want." "I'm going in there to collect as much as I possibly can." "It's a very YouTube idea, I love it." "Recovery is very important in our sport." "Come as you are, leave as more." "Your struggles are not your limitations." "Bravery is speaking truth to power." "Don't just climb the ladder, create an elevator." "Embracing failure is a powerful gift." "Your will wouldn't have said I leave X to my spouse, 'cause you weren't married before. But now you are." "To know and not to do is to not know." "People who fail to plan, plan to fail."

The latest New Zealand Drug Trends Survey shows people are increasingly turning to social media to buy their drugs, and gangs are dominating the meth market. Massey University professor Chris Wilkins spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.

Fears social media is exposing more young people to drug use. The latest Drug Trends Survey reveals apps like Facebook and Snapchat are used to arrange sales, and drugs are also marketed on gaming apps. It finds there's been an overall rise in the use of social media purchasing for all drug types, particularly cannabis and MDMA. SHORE and Whariki Research Centre Professor Chris Wilkins told Mike Hosking the market's moved online. He says there's an algorithm phishing for engagement, which means there's a cross section of young people who are exposed. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A massive spike in meth use is being linked to a change in global shopping habits. Christopher Luxon has asked ministers to look into meth use, after annual wastewater results show a 96% increase in consumption last year compared to 2023. Massey University drug researcher Chris Wilkins told Mike Hosking it's likely a case of both people using more, and more people using. He says the increase represents the changes to the drug market, which is moving from a brick-and-mortar store, to a global online platform.

A drug researcher is warning more fentanyl will arrive in New Zealand. The Government's working to tighten controls on 23 substances - helping to allow a police and Customs crackdown. Health Minister Simeon Brown want to categorise three drugs similar to fentanyl as Class A substances, with harsher penalties for manufacture. Massey University's Chris Wilkins says fentanyl is a cheaper alternative for many drugs. "They've been replacing heroin with fentanyl - but now, increasingly, a whole lot of other drugs. And given that economic incentive, it's hard to see that New Zealand is going to avoid this problem." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

New Zealand's meth use has reached unprecedented heights. New figures show a monthly peak of 39.2 kg recorded in October - well above historic averages and nearly double the previous record of 20.6kg in 2021. Massey University Drug researcher Chris Wilkins talks to Mike Hosking about the reason for the surge, and what this means for the country. LISTEN ABOVE.

I headed up to Hokianga for the last official weekend of summer - take a load off, relax, a few swims, not even think about anything newsy - well, you can't be doing that now, can you? Not in Trump land. The meeting with Ukraine President Vladimir Zelensky was an unmitigated disaster for the Ukrainian president, who walked out of the meeting after being berated for not being grateful enough for the military aid and financial support the US has given Ukraine in its three-year war with Russia. Zelensky went to the White House to sign a minerals for arms deal - he left with nothing and his political future looks uncertain. Major European leaders have promised their support for Zelinsky and Ukraine, but how that translates to cold, hard cash and missiles remains to be seen. However much you might find the bombastic posturing of Fox News's Jesse Watters, this is America's economy, this is America's world - like it or not, it's pretty much true. Whatever the European leaders decide as regards Ukraine, they know and they have stated publicly that the USA will be needed to act as security and however poorly the meeting went, Ukraine needs America, and America does not need Ukraine. And Donald Trump has said if you want gillions of dollars in military support and financial aid, we're not doing it for goodness and for freedom and democracy and because we will act as the world's policeman and police an invader that is wrong , we'll do it for money. We're done, we're done with doing it for ideals. You want our help, then you have to give us something back. I suppose this is all done nicely, nicely underneath the surface in the past. Countries always want something for their aid. The US wanted aid for coming to Britain's assistance during World War 2, and we're going to give it for nothing, but it's always done behind closed doors and nicely. Here it was played out in all its inglorious reality before a watching world. It's the way the world has always been, but we've just never seen it. So not over yet, is it? So that happened. And and then the story about meth. There was the most heartbreaking interview with the survivor of a dreadful - I don't even want to say an accident. It wasn't an accident. When you've got a meth affected driver who has ploughed into a group of motorcyclists who are enjoying an early morning ride, having a great weekend, they're going into town for breakfast and a driver on the wrong side of the road plows into them. Meth affected, killing three. And changing life as he knows it for the survivor - it's not an accident. Meth doesn't just affect the person who's taking. We all know that. Kids are growing up in violence and poverty because every spare scent is being spent on meth. It's leaving people dead and injured, which you might say is God's little pruning fork, but really it has massive impacts on our health system and on our police. Families torn apart because bright young things become addicts who steal from their families, lie to them, manipulate them, do anything they possibly can to get their hands on the drug. And it's been around for years now. You can't say, oh, I didn't realise - I didn't understand that it would be that it would be so addictive, that it would cause so much harm. Everybody knows. And yet still they use it. People who have escaped its clutches know just how evil and insidious this drug. And yet still people are using, and they're using in greater numbers and in greater quantities than ever before. On the Mike Hosking Breakfast, Massey university drug researcher Chris Wilkins says the increase in meth use as a supply side effect. "So essentially, there's been a massive increase in industrial size production of methamphetamine traditionally from Southeast Asia, but now increasingly from other parts of the world like South America and Mexico. So you know the seizures have increased 10 times in the last three or five years. So this is really supply. Very cheap meth that can be easily manufactured at low price, and we're just getting swamped in meth, essentially, I think this is a real wake up call because and it's partly a technological driven thing that we've now got synthetic drugs like meth that can be produced on large scale at a very low price. But also there's other changes in the market, like a digital market, you know, encrypted messaging apps, darknet and social media are being used now in a drug market that's very different from what we might remember as a teenager. So you know, these are all things to keep her aware of." That was Chris Wilkins talking to Mike Hosking this morning. So the only real way to reduce the harm of this drug is to reduce demand, because they will keep flooding it. I've interviewed people before about the supply chain and how easy it is to get drugs into this country coming down through the Pacific. Easy peasy. If they lose a bit on the way through, that's factored in by the drug manufacturers and the drug suppliers accountants - you bring in 100,000 kilos, you lose 20,000, you're still going to make a massive profit. So the only real way is to reduce demand, rehabilitate addicts and stop people taking it in the first place. There are schemes, there are programmes that are working, they haven't been rolled out throughout the country. Labour promised to. Shock me. National promised too - don't know where they're at with that and I would really, really like to find out. Where you do have proven drug programmes that engage with the community, where it's treated as a as a health issue, that gets people off this insidious drug once and for all, we need to roll them out as a matter of urgency. I think there was a 34% success rate for a programme in the Far North we've talked about before. This is an actual anonymised data from police and health. Because the only way to stop the harm that drugs are causing to innocent people is to reduce the desire for it, and I don't see that happening anytime soon.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There's a concern many people may not fully understand the risk of recreationally using pharmaceuticals. The 2024 New Zealand Drugs Trends Survey of more than 10,000 people shows more than a quarter of respondents use the drugs for non-medical reasons. It's also found a quarter of recent psychedelics users did so for therapeutic purposes. Author Chris Wilkins told Heather du Plessis-Allan many people believe, just because the drugs are pharmaceutical, it means there's a lower risk. He says many are similar to illegal drugs and are particularly more risky if mixed. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A researcher believes international drug smugglers are flooding the New Zealand market, bringing prices down and availability up. The New Zealand Drugs Trends Survey found cocaine use is increasing, with 48% of respondents reporting they've used it at some point in their life. It finds meth's also dropping in price, with a gram becoming 36% cheaper over the past six years. Massey University drug researcher Chris Wilkins says the majority of Australia's meth comes from Mexican cartels. He says there's now an overlap for smugglers, importing meth and cocaine together.

There's concern in the health sector over medicinal cannabis being treated as a one-stop-shop for illnesses. A study published in today's Medical Journal reveals the products are becoming more psychoactive, with higher THC levels. The lead author says many GPs aren't confident in prescribing medicinal cannabis themselves. Massey University Researcher Chris Wilkins told Mike Hosking it is an evolving market, still in its early stages. He says patients should have multiple treatment options outside of medicinal cannabis. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A drug researcher suspects small blocks of meth wrapped to look like pineapple lollies may be linked to Mexican cartels. Illicit Drug Monitoring System at Massey University head Dr Chris Wilkins spoke to Guyon Espiner.

Auckland police have recovered more meth-laced lollies overnight, and are investigating a report someone tried to sell one. The fake Rinda pineapple sweets were donated to Auckland City Mission - which unwittingly distributed them in food parcels. Police have retrieved another 13 since yesterday, bringing the total to 29. Massey University's Professor Chris Wilkins suspects Mexican cartels may have been behind this incident. "The Mexican cartels are particularly innovative and have expertise in smuggling, because they have been, for many decades, transporting drugs across the borders of the US."  LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Gangs are making hundreds-of-millions of dollars in profit by dominating the illegal drugs market in New Zealand. The latest research from the country's drug trends survey of 13,000 people shows gangs are selling about 40 percent of methamphetamine in Northland, Canterbury, Nelson, and Marlborough. The results also show many people are finding and buying their drugs via social media apps and chat groups. But it's not without risk - with 12-percent of those surveyed experiencing victimisation while buying drugs in the past six months, including receiving fake and unsafe drugs. The research is led by Massey University associate professor Chris Wilkins. Wilkins spoke to Corin Dann.

In today's podcast episode we chat with Associate Professor Chris Wilkins from SHORE & Whariki Research Centre, the College of Health at Massey University in New Zealand about the preferences for different cannabis law reform options among the general population and key national stakeholders in New Zealand. To provide some background, several countries including Australia and New Zealand are debating the future of cannabis policy. In 2020 a national referendum to legalise recreational cannabis use and supply (via the Cannabis Legalisation and Control Bill (CLCB)) was held in New Zealand, and was narrowly defeated. We chat with Chris around the key factors in the defeat of the CLCB.
