Greens and NZ First clash sparks fears of ‘dirty campaign' for election

A war of words has erupted between the Green Party and NZ First this week. It comes after photos circulated on social from a private Instagram account belonging to Green MP Benjamin Doyle. The account, named ‘biblebeltbussy’, also featured photos of their child, including one with ‘bussy’ in the caption. The term originated as a euphuism for a man’s anus, and can be used colloquially by some in the gay community, but Doyle’s usage of it has sparked accusations of vulgarity and being inappropriate. That was amplified by Deputy Prime Minister Winston Peters, who said on social media that Doyle should answer for the posts and that if “Police want to investigate, they can”. The Green Party has said that Doyle has received death threats as a result and have called for the Prime Minister to intervene. So does this suggest a changing battleground for politics, with family issues and social media activists taking centre stage? Today on The Front Page, we’re joined by Victoria University of Wellington politics professor Lara Greaves to discuss a different type of political scandal.

Government hits back as school lunch programme continues to face criticism - will the scheme survive?

A brainchild of the previous Labour Government, the Healthy School Lunches Programme provides free lunches to about 242,000 students in greatest need. Since its initial launch in 2019, the programme has often been a target by politicians and commentators over the cost involved in the scheme. It’s now under the supervision of associate education minister David Seymour, and a cheaper alternative to it launched this year. It alone has faced a myriad of issues, notably incidents of unappetising, late or absent food deliveries, and a more serious case of one child suffering second-degree burns from a hot lunch. As a result, hundreds of meals have been left uneaten – and now, one company contracted to deliver the food has gone into liquidation. So why are free school lunches such a source of controversy – and can the Government get past the negative headlines around them? Today on The Front Page, we’re joined by Victoria University of Wellington politics professor Dr Lara Greaves to discuss why there’s no such thing as a free lunch.

On July 26th 1984, David Lange was sworn in as the 32nd Prime Minister of New Zealand. His ascension into the country's top job came after Robert Muldoon's infamous snap election ended his nine years in power. Best remembered for enshrining New Zealand's nuclear free status, Lange also oversaw controversial economic policies that ultimately divided his caucus, and saw his time on the ninth floor only last five years. With this Ruby Jubilee prompting reflections on Lange's leadership and the legacy of the fourth Labour government, today on The Front Page we're joined by one of the few journalists who was there at the time and is still working today, Newstalk ZB senior political correspondent, Barry Soper, and Victoria University of Wellington politics professor Lara Greaves.  Follow The Front Page on iHeartRadio, Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts.
