The Government’s promised the “free ride” for gangs, is officially over.
From today, gang patches will no longer be allowed to be worn in public, courts will be able to issue non-consorting orders, and Police will be able to stop members from communicating with each other.
Greater weight will also be given to gang membership at sentencing – and repeat offenders continually convicted of displaying their patches in public will be subject to a new court order, prohibiting them from possessing any gang insignia in public, or private, for five years.
But any of this be any kind of deterrent to the more than 9000 gang members in New Zealand?
Today on The Front Page, lifetime Black Power member and community advocate Denis O'Reilly is with us to discuss his perspective on these new laws.

The war in Ukraine has hit the one-thousand-day mark.
On February 24, 2022 – Russia invaded Ukraine – since then, hundreds of thousands of people have died, many more have been injured, and millions are displaced.
It's been called the largest and deadliest in Europe since World War II.
This week, US President Joe Biden gave the green light for Ukraine to strike Russia with US-made, long-range missiles.
It comes just nine weeks before Donald Trump takes office, who on the election trail pledged to put an end to the war.
So, after a thousand days how will these missiles change the war, and what will a Trump peace deal look like?
Today on The Front Page, Waikato University international law professor, Alexander Gillespie, is with us to discuss if there’s an end in sight for the conflict.

The hikoi that started in Cape Reinga and has made its way down the country arrives in Wellington today.
While many have taken part in various stages of the hikoi, tens of thousands of people are expected outside the Beehive today, as a protest against the Government’s policies impacting Maori, including the Treaty Principles Bill.
Te Pati Maori have been leading the push back against the Government, notably with a viral haka stunt in Parliament during the Bill’s first reading that has garnered global attention.
The party’s co-leader, Debbie Ngarewa-Packer, joins us today on The Front Page to discuss the hikoi, that viral haka, and why they are fighting back so strongly against this Government.

People respond to election losses in various ways, from protesting to legal action to considering moving country.
But, what about adopting a vow of celibacy through something called the “4B movement”?
That’s what some young women in the US have promised on social media in protest of Donald Trump winning back the White House.
No dating. No sex, No childbirth. And no marriage.
In a world where: the next US President was found liable for sexual abuse, online vitriol against women is skyrocketing, and the term “your body, my choice” is trending online... how effective could this 4B movement be?
University of Otago PhD candidate Rachel Billington has researched how young people interact with each other online, and joins us now on The Front Page to discuss this growing movement.

David Seymour’s Treaty Principles Bill was introduced to Parliament last week – with its first reading debate scheduled for today.
The bill has sparked fierce criticism since it was included as part of National and Act’s coalition agreement last year.
Protests are expected outside Parliament today, while thousands of marchers protesting Government policies affecting Maori crossed the Auckland Harbour Bridge yesterday as part of a hikoi to Parliament.
So, now that we’ve actually seen the Bill, what’s in it, and what are the chances of it actually getting across the line?
Today on The Front Page, Newstalk ZB political editor Jason Walls joins us to discuss one of the most contentious Government bills in recent memory.

As votes continue to be counted in the US, President-elect Donald Trump has swept all seven battleground states, confirming his dominant performance in the country’s election.
While many were shocked that the US would return to Trump after four years, many voters have made it clear their feelings about high inflation and the cost of living under the Biden administration swayed them towards the Republicans.
It’s a similar sentiment that helped National, Act and NZ First ascend to power in our election last year.
But, in a global economic environment, how much sway does one political leader have over how much you're paying for groceries and petrol?
Today on The Front Page, we discuss this with NZ Herald business editor at large, Liam Dann.

Gen Z can be credited with a few things – an uptick in climate awareness, the ability to work any kind of technology, and the revival of straight leg jeans, just to name a few.
However, recruiters across the ditch in Australia have spoken out about Gen Z graduates’ demands on employers –saying their arrogant expectations are leaving a bad taste in their bosses’ mouths.
The oldest of the generation, born between 1997 and 2012, are 27 years old, so they are set to stick around in the workplace for quite some time.
So are they in their wrong with their approach to work, or are they actually onto something?
Today on The Front Page, recruitment agency Robert Walters, CEO of Australia & NZ Shay Peters, joins us to discuss the impact of our youngest generation of workers.

Ever feel like you’re getting less bang for your buck at the supermarket? Well you might be right.
As production costs rise, many companies have been resorting to what’s called ‘Shrinkflation’. Rather than raising the cost to the consumer, they make the product smaller while charging the same price.
According to a Global Inflation Monitor survey in 2023, 46% of consumers said that they have noticed shrinkflation, with 55% of kiwi consumers noticing the tactic and the same amount stating the practice was an unacceptable response to rising costs.
Today on The Front Page, we’re joined by Massey University marketing professor, Bodo Lang to discuss the ethics behind shrinkflation.

Donald J. Trump will become the 47th President of the United States of America.
Democrat Kamala Harris called the former president to congratulate him and offer their support for a peaceful transition of power.
Trump won’t take up office until January 20 next year – and there are a few things that’ll happen between now and then.
He faces sentencing for his felony conviction for a start, that’s put down for November 26. A judge, though, could decide to throw it out though before then.
There are then some formalities – like appointing some 4000 political positions in a new administration – and it’ll be next year when the idea of tariffs will come to the fore, but it’s something the rest of the world is already anticipating.
On the campaign trial, he promised anywhere from 10 to 20% tariffs on imports.
So, what does that mean for New Zealand exporters, specially given the US is one of our biggest trading partners?
Today on The Front Page, Beef and Lamb NZ chair, Kate Acland is with us to discuss, but first, we speak to NZUS Council executive director Fiona Cooper, about our blossoming relationship with the United States – and why we should all probably take a deep breath.
