Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

95bFM Breakfast with Rosetta and Milly: Rāapa June 3, 2026
Q: What is the big announcement for 95bFM today?
The station is moving its operations to Karangahape Road, a move described as a return to the station's spiritual home and a major logistical project to be completed with community support.
What's Up w/ Steve Abel: Rāapa June 3, 2026
Q: How should New Zealand fund essential services without compromising future prosperity?
By taxing the wealthy more and redirecting funds from overpriced infrastructure toward universal services, with emphasis on preventive care, early childhood, and a robust environmental plan to ensure long-term wellbeing.
What's Up w/ Steve Abel: Rāapa June 3, 2026
Q: What do you see as the core misalignments between the budget priorities and the Greens' policy goals?
The Greens prioritize investing in health, housing, education, and climate action, arguing that too much is being spent on roads, defense, and austerity measures that worsen inequality and long-term costs.
Politics with Māni Dunlop: 14 May, 2026
Q: Could you talk about what's happening with the Te Tai Tokerau Party and Maria Minokapakingi's stance?
Maria Minokapakingi has made it clear she will not return to Te Pāti Māori and plans to establish her own Te Tai Tokerau Party, with potential candidates and policy announcements to come. The discussion also notes ongoing speculation about Hone Harawira's possible candidacy and how that could shape the North electorate.
Secure Housing and Prison Rehabilitation w/ Dr Alice Mills: May 14th 2026
Q: What kind of supports should be put in place to counteract these unmet housing needs?
Prevention measures like maintaining housing during imprisonment, rent or mortgage assistance for short sentences, and a dedicated housing coordinator role—possibly from NGOs or iwi-based groups—could help secure suitable accommodation on release.
