Podcasts about deputy pm

Winston's done it again. The old political workhorse of the Pacific just keeps getting more popular. New Zealand First has overtaken ACT in the latest Taxpayer's Union Curia Poll - it's now the third most popular party. I'll give you a break down of the numbers shortly, but this has got to be ego bruising for Seymour. He's just got his feet under the Deputy's desk and he's been overtaken in the polls by the bloke he's replaced. Not that simply being the Deputy PM gets you votes, but he's trying to make a good fist of it. Seymour's holding press conferences left, right and centre. Yesterday, a stand-up reacting to no change in the OCR. Today, a stand-up on Stats NZ numbers. Luxon's overseas on holiday. Winston's East Asia Summit Foreign Ministers' Meeting in Kuala Lumpur. Seymour's been bogged down with Regulatory Standard's Bill, the Treaty bill and school lunches. Winston's been flying around the world keeping us in line with China and staving off Trump's tariffs... all while celebrating his 80th birthday. And to top it off, he's keeping cash in circulation. Winston is popular because he speaks his mind and knows what he's talking about. He commands respect. When he speaks, people listen. He's a good example of a man who keeps it simple. Do your job and do it well. Work hard and stay focussed. It's a pretty simple formula that's seen him through the last 40+ years in politics and ion these numbers will see him through atleast a couple more yet.

North Macedonia is a strategically important country in the Western Balkans, which was granted EU candidate status nearly 20 years ago, alongside Croatia. But while Croatia has now long been a member of the EU, North Macedonia is still waiting. We look at the reasons for the many delays with the country's Deputy Prime Minister Aleksandar Nikoloski. We also discuss his official visit to France, a country that effectively blocked North Macedonia's EU membership in 2019 – although relations between the two countries are now much better, Nikoloski states.

David Seymour has vowed to keep speaking freely as he takes over as deputy prime minister - while an unshackled Winston Peters shifts into campaign mode - with a plan to avoid another handover next term. Deputy political editor Craig McCulloch reports.

Christopher Luxon says he's expecting a “pretty seamless transition” as Winston Peters hands over the deputy prime minister role to David Seymour this week. The Prime Minister spoke live to Newstalk ZB Wellington Mornings host Nick Mills today as he reaches the halfway point of his three-year term as leader. Luxon was sworn in as Prime Minister in November 2023, after National secured 38% of the vote at the general election. He negotiated a three-way coalition agreement with New Zealand First and ACT. As part of that agreement, the leaders of the two parties, Winston Peters and David Seymour, are sharing the deputy prime minister role for half of the parliamentary term each. This week marks the midpoint for the three-year parliamentary term. Peters has been serving as deputy prime minister with Seymour set to take over this Saturday. When asked how he felt he was tracking in the job, Luxon said he was “absolutely loving it” but acknowledged it was a tough time for the country. “It's essentially like the recession of the early 90's. We inherited a hell of a mess and we're happy to fix it up and sort it out.” Luxon said he and his wife continue having date nights on Fridays despite the demands of the job, and had just been to the movies together to see Mission Impossible. “I really want Amanda and the kids to be able to carry on their life without being defined too much by what I do.” He said there was “no question at all whatsoever” that he would do it all again if he had the chance to start over. “I kind of knew what I was getting into . . . the hard stuff comes to your desk. If it's easy, it gets solved somewhere else in the system.” When asked whether he was spending too much time appeasing coalition parties, Luxon said they were doing something that had never been done before. Mills asked whether Luxon's party would be more effective if they could work without the coalition parties, and Luxon said that was not how New Zealand worked with the electoral system. He said it was “okay” and “normal” to not agree on everything with partners, but in the majority of cases they were aligned in what they wanted to do. Asked about the handover from Peters to Seymour as deputy prime minister, Luxon said he expects it to be a “pretty seamless transition”. He said Peters and Seymour were different people with different personalities, and Luxon's job was to make that work. Christopher Luxon, David Seymour and Winston Peters after signing their coalition agreement in November 2023. Photo / Mark Mitchell Mills asked Luxon what he thought was going wrong with Wellington, referencing public sector job cuts and the appointment of a Crown Observer at Wellington City Council. Luxon referred to other major cities that were making bids for big events, such as Sail GP in Auckland and the supercars in Christchurch. He criticised a bike lane being built on Molesworth St. “You've got way too much ideology and party politics in your local government. “Wellington should be more than just a public service town. We've just gone and invested $500 million in film rebates in this country.” He said there was ambition and aspiration in Wellington, but there needed to be a council that did the basics well, such as managing water. He said Wellington Water was a “total basket case”. Luxon wouldn't be drawn on who he thought should be the capital's next Mayor, instead saying “whoever is the next mayor needs to have a vision where it's going to, they need to get the finances under control. “It's a big city, it's an important city to New Zealand. I live here, I love this place, it's got so much potential.” Luxon then turned the questions on Nick Mills asking if he was going to be throwing his hat in the ring. He jokingly exclaimed they had managed to confirm Mills was not running for mayor. The six men vying to be Wellington's next mayor are Andrew Little, Ray Chung, Graham Bloxham, Karl Tiefenbacher, Rob Goulden and Kelvin Hastie. NZH composite image The pair also discussed the recent death of Palmerston North teenager Ryan Satterthwaite, who died after taking part in a private “run it straight” game on Sunday. The 19-year-old was taken to Palmerston North Hospital with severe head injuries. His life support was turned off on Monday. Satterthwaite's grieving family say his death was an “accident waiting to happen” and have urged others to stop taking part in the social media-driven trend. Speaking to the Herald, his uncle Peter Satterthwaite said Ryan was a “top kid” who loved his mates, enjoyed playing rugby, and “would do anything for anybody.” He said “run it straight” was simply a “stupid idea”. “Just don't do it. A little bit of fun has lifelong consequences.” Palmerston North teen, Ryan Satterthwaite died after suffering serious injuries in a "run it straight" game. Satterthwaite said it was “disgraceful” the events are being promoted as a sport, and is calling on the All Blacks, Warriors, and other high-profile sportspeople to publicly speak out against it. “People don't listen to us, we're just Joe Bloggs, but they [the public] idolise our sportspeople.” Luxon said the situation was “incredibly tragic for the young person involved, for their family, for their friends. It's just an absolute tragedy”. He said it was a good reminder for people to take “personal responsibility”. Luxon said adults and influencers driving the craze should be “thinking and reflecting very strongly right now”. He said it wasn't something you can ban at a government level.

Sky News' Sam Coates and Politico's Anne McElvoy serve up their essential guide to the day in British politics.  It'll be a day when the PM goes again at selling the merits of his EU deal. One former cabinet minister tells the podcast it's all 'concrete and waffle'. Welfare is on the agenda today too - with a DWP committee session on child welfare. And, did someone mention Nick Clegg? The former Deputy PM has used the c-word about the Lib Dems. Sam and Anne discuss coalition after another favorable poll for them - but it's a poll which really isn't good news for the Tories

Luxon's stuck. Poor old Luxon, he's stuck between a rock and a hard place really, isn't he? And it's only going to get worse as we head into next year. Just when he's done dealing with David Seymour on the Treaty Principles Bill - he never wanted to go with but agreed to get into government. That was shut down on Thursday and now the fire kicks off - he's having to hose that down too. He's been hosing it down since last Friday now. That's Winston and his big noting about how to deal with Trump, right. The phone calls that Luxon hastily arranged to avoid being in the House for the death of the Treaty Principles Bill are the same phone calls that have now started this tussle with Winston? He just can't win. Either way, there's coalition land mines to step on. Here's the thing, Winston first made these comments last Thursday. He said Luxon should have called them or whatever the words were. So, he should have just picked up the phone, called them straight away, squared it off, have it out, whatever, move on. Instead, you're trying to announce a tourism boost at Sky City on Monday and it's still dragging out. Some journalist in the press conference yesterday even asked Luxon whether he'd apologised to Winston Peters. For goodness sakes, what an outrageous question. For the record, Luxon gave a speech basically saying he supports free trade. Big deal we all do. Then he calls a couple of world leaders he's met and tells them he likes free trade. Big deal, guess what? That's fine because he's the Prime Minister. That's actually his job. He is the boss. Winston's just feeling a bit left out over in Tonga obviously, so he's running his mouth off. What does Luxon do? Does he just have a private call and hope that Winston calms down? Or does he take a harder line in public with Winston? Call him out? Tell us he's only the Foreign Minister, not the Prime Minister, and he should stay in his lane. Whatever the strategy, he needs to figure it out quick smart. As I wrote about at the weekend, Winston's only just getting started. There's an election to fight next year and he'll be unshackled from the Deputy PM reins next month. Then it's all on for young and old. And Luxon this week has been warned.

Donald Trump's backflip on tariffs unlikely to affect Australia according to the Deputy PM, Nearly $50 billion wiped from Australia's top 500 listed companies In the AFL, Adelaide and Geelong set for high-stakes Gather Round opener.

In this timely and thought-provoking episode, Ben Law sits down with John Anderson—former Deputy Prime Minister, generational farmer, and host of one of Australia's most influential podcasts—for a conversation every values-driven farming family needs to hear. Together, they explore the slow erosion of the very virtues that built Australia: responsibility, self-sacrifice, financial prudence, family unity, and moral courage. As global stability fractures and population decline accelerates, John offers a sobering but deeply insightful take on what it will take for Australian agriculture—and the nation itself—to thrive in the decades ahead. You'll hear:Why the “liberal world order” that underpinned Australian prosperity is breaking downThe looming population bomb—and what it means for food production, labour, and successionHow national complacency is threatening our freedoms, finances, and futureWhy families on the land must rediscover the grit, stewardship, and leadership that once defined usThis isn't about nostalgia—it's about rediscovering the foundational virtues that secure both family legacies and national resilience. If you care about your farm, your family, and the future of this country, this episode will leave you challenged, inspired, and more determined than ever.-----------------------Ben spent over 20 years working with successful business owners and farming families which allowed him to unearth the timeless principles on how to successfully grow, protect and maintain wealth.If you want to learn the principles of how to grow your family's wealth throughout the generations, then you might consider joining The AgriCoach Podcast each fortnight for more Wealth & Wisdom.Disclaimer: The information contained in this podcast is general in nature and for education purposes only.

So it looks like the Treaty Principles Act is toast as Christopher Luxon assured us it would be. Much was made over the weekend that 90 per cent of the submissions were against it. But that means nothing if all the opposing submissions were just photocopies of one. Māori are organised. Anyone who's seen their multiple Hikoi's and the awesome organisation of the Kings Tangi should know that. You underestimate Māori at your peril. But it must also be noted that Act's act was a simplistic dog. Much of it is already covered by the bill of rights. At its heart it was three sentences designed to overthrow 50 years of legal development. But is the movement against the treaty dead. No, it is not. New Zealand first wants to have a crack. And Winston Peters, being the experienced legislator, wants to amend the existing Treaty Principles legislation we already have. He ran his election campaign on it. It's the smart way to achieve real change. And as we approach the changeover between Peters and Seymour of the Deputy PM role, Winston will have the time and the energy to have his try. So welcome to round two of the Treaty Principles debate. A round that has much more chance to succeed. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

#cuttheclutter After an unexpected but good performance in Lok Sabha polls, the Congress-led INDI alliance lost embarrassingly in Maharashtra and exposed faultlines in the Haryana Assembly elections. In episode 1560 of Cut The Clutter, Editor-in-Chief Shekhar Gupta dissects structural issues within the alliance, the contradiction in ideologies, distrust between alliance partners, conflicts of interest, and an apparently overpowering aura of the Congress. He also looks back at the life of Maharashtra's first Chief Minister Yashvantrao Balwantrao Chavan on his death anniversary. Chavan served in the Nehru-Gandhi Union cabinets as External Affairs Minister, Defence Minister, Home Minister, and even Deputy PM. Known for modernizing India's military, Chavan's memory may be lost due to the Congress' institutional amnesia. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Read ThePrint's National Interest on Congress' dilemma between survival and revival https://theprint.in/national-interest/congresss-central-dilemma-since-1989-survival-or-revival/2329168/ --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To know more about Y B Chavan, you can refer to the following books: Debacle to Revival: Y.B.Chavan as Defence Minister, 1962-65 by R.D.

Our summary of the top stories in investment migration this week:

The UK General Election is set for July 4th 2024 and we face the situation of Keir Starmer's Labour Party being to the right of the Tories on some questions, the peril of electing a Deputy PM in Angela Raynor who has previously supported obvious perverts, and almost zero incentive for young people to vote for either of the two main parties, given we could barely fit a wafer cracker between their policies. We discuss Labour's obsession with fudging issues by creating 'third ways' on topics, such as believing they can deliver both 'single sex spaces' and 'self-ID'. Plus, how Starmer's core base is the PMC, who he not only embodies and represents the interests of, but is of their class.The wider context of the PMC and their acolytes is that the working-class embarrass them. The PMC and middle-class consider themselves morally superior and more deserving to run things than the one person one vote General Election a liberal democracy allows for. The middle-class elements that orbit the PMC, typically aspiring to ascend to it, are actually workers in the sense that they sell their labour, so have to create moral constructs in order to separate themselves from the working-class, who disgust them. They do this day-to-day through having different habits of consumption, but they also pick political issues on which to perform outrage and perform empathy, such as Brexit, the war in Ukraine, or "smashing the gangs". This means they avoid having uncomfortable conversations about the realities of imperialism and global capital.The episode ends on the wider shift to the right across Europe (though it was recorded before yesterday's EU election results where the rightwing won big), the NHS, immigration, and private finance.
