Primary teachers are the last on the list in the education sector, still to strike a pay deal with the Government. Primary principals have accepted a cumulative 2.5% immediate pay rise and another 2.1% next year. It introduces a $15 thousand curriculum-change allowance, recognising their work implementing reforms. Education Minister Erica Stanford told Mike Hosking teachers want the Treaty of Waitangi acknowledged and increased learning support.

High rents, rising food costs and a perceived lack of opportunities are driving young people out of New Zealand. Last year, more people left than ever before. What can be done to improve living conditions and stop the loss of young talent? The current government has opened the question of Māori land rights in a quest to exploit New Zealand's natural resources. An attempt to overturn a historic treaty failed last year, but as New Zealand faces an election in the autumn, the issue will not go away. There is much to debate for Jonny Dymond and a panel of political leaders as they face questions from across the country.The Panel: Chris Bishop, MP, National Party and Minister for Housing, Transport and Infrastructure and Leader of the House.Ginny Andersen, MP, Labour Party's Spokeswoman on Jobs, Income, Police and Treaty of Waitangi negotiations.Shane Jones, MP, Deputy Leader of New Zealand First and Minister of Oceans and FisheriesMarama Davidson, MP, Co-leader of the Green party and Spokeswoman on Conservation, Child Poverty Reduction and Social investment.Producer: Charlie Taylor Sound engineers: Tim Heffer, Ian Mitchell and Joe Lawrence

The story of Waitangi is often told through debate, tension, and broken promises. But what if, before it became a political conversation, it was first a relational one? In this message from our Ihu: The Legacy of the Gospel series, we explore the arrival of the gospel in Aotearoa and why the Treaty of Waitangi was understood by early missionaries and Māori as a covenant — a sacred partnership built on relationship, responsibility, and trust. By tracing the Bible's story of covenant through Abraham, Sinai, King David, and ultimately Jesus, we discover that covenant has always been God's way of restoring broken relationships. This message moves beyond history and politics to ask a deeper question: What does it look like to live righteously — to do right by people — today? As we conclude at the communion table, we're reminded that the ultimate covenant was not sealed with words, but with Jesus' body and blood — a faithfulness that invites us into renewed relationship with God and with one another. This is a conversation about legacy, relationship, and the gospel lived out — then and now.

A catastrophic failure at the Moa Point wastewater plant in Wellington has laid bare a short-term crisis and a crisis of short-termism. Fortified by nothing but the balm of poo jokes, Ben Thomas relates the mood in the city and the measures under way in response. But does it say something deeper about the country and the state of its piping? Plus: a review of events of Waitangi, where the spotlight fell more directly on the parties of opposition than those of government. Just days after its divisions played out in the High Court, Te Pāti Māori's internal struggles manifested on the paepae, while a show of unity from Labour and the Greens was overshadowed by the announcement of Peeni Henare's exit from politics, and the sense of a story not being fully told. We discuss Henare's legacy, and where it leaves Labour's Māori caucus, as well as another big political departure, Judith Collins. What were the highs and lows of her remarkable parliamentary career, and is the step into the Law Commission presidency entirely legit? And finally: Energy minister Simon "Mega" Watts has announced the government will commission a billion-dollar import facility for liquefied natural gas to plug the gap in New Zealand's energy mix. But is the levy to fund it really a tax, and is this even the right question to be fixating on? Get your tickets to the Gone By Lunchtime 10th Birthday Party now! Learn more about your ad choices.

In this special Waitangi edition of The Adviser Talk, Tim and Nick explore what a 149-year journey toward resolution can teach us about how we show up in our financial lives today.Drawing on the remarkable story of Ngāi Tahu, they uncover how generations carried the weight of grievance, how internal division weakened an otherwise formidable iwi, and how unity, pragmatism and forward thinking ultimately sparked extraordinary regeneration. From an infamous dog skin cloak feud to the full and final settlement that allowed Ngāi Tahu to move from loss into long-term growth, this episode looks at why the past matters, but also why staying anchored to it can quietly erode wellbeing, opportunity and financial resilience. Tim and Nick connect these powerful historical lessons to the modern decisions families, investors, and business owners face every day, especially when emotions run high. At its heart, this conversation is about choosing where to invest your energy. Whether navigating an inheritance dispute, a business breakdown or a long-held sense of imbalance, the Ngāi Tahu story offers a blueprint for letting go of what no longer serves you, coming together with clarity and purpose and building a future that compounds in your favour for generations.

You'll probably see and hear a bit of argy-bargy up North today as the politicians get welcomed onto the Treaty Grounds. If you've never been up there, it's easily one of the best ‘Kiwi' weekends you'll experience. The sunshine's guaranteed. People are friendly. The grub's good and there's plenty of watering holes filled with political chats flowing long into the night. Protest is an important part of democracy, it lances society's boils and keeps powerful people in check. But it must be peaceful. The minute you start throwing fists, pushing cops, and shoving people round, you lose the room. I've seen that happen at Waitangi several times. I've seen that happen at many protests about a whole bunch of different issues. I hope it doesn't happen this year. There's a group of twenty online who apparently say they're ready to be arrested in the name of protest. What a shame that would be. If there's one thing we've shown each other as a country over the last fortnight, with the storms, flooding, landslides, and then the clean-up, it's that we are still a united and down-to-earth country. The politicians might argue. The lobby groups hiss and roar. But at its heart, New Zealand is mostly made up of decent people who look out for each other. We saw marae house, feed, and water their neighbours. I saw farmers being fed by kuia on marae. We saw farmers helping clear Māori-owned land of debris. We saw tradies and workers leap in to help tourists trapped under rubble. They might fight about race in Parliament but the reality on the ground, as you know and most of us know, is way more chill than they make out. Much more chill than we in the media make out, too, to be fair. We're basically a nation of hard-working people, of all different cultures and colours, who sometimes disagree but mostly get on with life and look after each other. Of course, there are exceptions but that's exactly the point - they're exceptions not the rule. And this Waitangi Day, especially given how badly some other democracies have gone to dogs, that's something surely worth celebrating. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Perspective with Heather du Plessis-Allan: Don't forget a Chippy-led Government comes with Green baggage

You know what that Labour and Green Party unity news conference at Waitangi today looked like to me? It looked like desperation. Parties don't generally get other parties to stand next to them and hold their hands in an election year just to convince people to vote for them. Now, having said that, it's obviously not the first time we've seen something similar from Labour and the Greens. You'll remember that before the 2017 election, Grant Robertson and James Shaw did a similar-ish thing. They released their Budget Responsibility Rules to try to convince us they could be trusted with the Government's finances. That was an act of desperation, because they'd been battered by Steven Joyce's 'fiscal hole' allegations for so long they had to do something. And just like in 2017, this is an act of desperation, because Chippy knows his biggest problem this time around -trying to get into Government - is convincing voters that his coalition mates are not just a bunch of nut jobs, but can actually be trusted to run the country together. Which is why he left the Māori Party out of that unity press conference - because that party is chaos on stilts. The trouble for Chippy, though, is that the Greens aren't exactly the picture of internal discipline, are they? What with Golriz the thief, Bussy the awkward parent, Darleen the questionable employer, the spate of staff resignations -and that's not even mentioning the electorally toxic plans to tax us all into poverty. Chippy is off the mark if he thinks this is going to solve things for him, because the truth is his only realistic path to Government this year is with Winston Peters. Winston has said he's not going to go with Chippy, but that is still Chippy's only way back into Government. And that's where Chippy should be putting his energy - schmoozing Winston until Winston changes his mind, because Winston changing his mind is not unheard of. But doing a news conference with the Greens seems not only like a waste of time, but actually an unfortunate reminder to us all that a Chippy-led Government comes with Green-coloured baggage.
