Welcome to The Bradbury Group, an independent political podcast where sharp wit meets sharper hooks! This is episode one - a pre-Budget special for 2025 - and its power panel features John Tamihere, the Māori Party’s kingpin; Matthew Hooton, right-wing Slytherin-turned-columnist saboteur; and Craig Renney, Jedi economist for the working class. They tackle the week’s chaos - Māori MPs getting banished like it’s Hogwarts detention, a budget that may or may not bleed Milton Friedman’s ghost, and pay parity slashed with Thatcherite flair. Throw in a 10 minute catch-up with leader of the Opposition Chris Hipkins, and Bomber's War on News (which should be pretty self explanatory).

It’s politics, but with punchlines and purpose.
