In the headlines today, young Kiwis are the most affected by current rising unemployment rates, Kaipara District Council becomes the first to disestablish its Māori ward, and Children's Minister compares Oranga Tamariki to a 'Cash Cow'.
In stories, we invite Daniel Benson-Guiu, Te Pou Ahurei Takirua - Ahumahi Assistant National Secretary in Industrial at the Tertiary Education Union, to talk about the ongoing changes polytechnics are facing across Aotearoa, including cost-cutting measures and directives ordered by the government, and the decision to reform polytechnics so 'the strongest stand alone, and the weakest unite' to paraphrase the words of Minister of Tertiary Education and Skills, Penny Simmonds.
Today’s host is Charlie Cunningham.
