John MacDonald: I agree with the grumpy lawyer. To a point 6:03

8h ago6:03

6:03

How about this? I found myself agreeing this morning with someone who has been described as a racist dinosaur. To a point. This lefty wokester, that some people seem to think I am, actually agrees with this Kings Council lawyer who disagrees with tikanga Māori being compulsory for students doing a law degree at university from next year. I agree wi…

Chris Hipkins: Labour Leader discusses compulsory tikanga Maori, Carmel Sepuloni, and the Government's plans for Waikeria 9:29

11h ago9:29

9:29

Labour Leader Chris Hipkins joined John MacDonald for their regular catchup on Canterbury Mornings. The compulsory inclusion of tikanga Māori in law studies has ignited debate. Does Hipkins feel it has a place in our legal system? Should its study be compulsory? He was quick to make an assessment of the Government’s plan for a 'mega-prison' out at …

John MacDonald: New mega-prison will be a mega-cluster 5:35

1d ago5:35

5:35

Don’t go thinking that I’m soft on crime or pro-criminal or anything like that. But I think this idea the Government’s got of having a mega prison as part of its investment in the Corrections Service, I think it’s an idea that sucks. What it’s doing is it’s reviving a plan to build a mega-prison in Waikato with an 810-bed extension of Waikeria Pris…

John MacDonald: Why you should be nervous about government's water reforms 4:20

2d ago4:20

4:20

It’s time to get nervous. Very nervous. I’m talking here about the Government’s big water announcement. It’s starting with Auckland but, right around the country, changes are on the way. Auckland is first cab off the rank because it already has an outfit separate from Auckland Council’s other operations running drinking water supply. That’s Waterca…

Milan Borich: Lead singer of the band Pluto on the Come Together series in Christchurch 10:30

2d ago10:30

10:30

The Come Together tribute series continues in Christchurch this week, with a group of superstar Kiwi musicians performing The Joshua Tree. Milan Borich, lead singer of the band Pluto, joined John MacDonald on Newstalk ZB Canterbury Mornings to talk about the show, his favourite U2 song of all time, and the intimidation of paying tribute to a band l…

Politics Friday: National's Vanessa Weenink and Labour’s Duncan Webb discuss MP behaviour, education, and AUKUS 20:33

5d ago20:33

20:33

Today on Politics Friday John MacDonald was joined by National's Vanessa Weenink and Labour’s Duncan Webb. They discussed the recent behaviour from MPs, will complaints be laid? Education is getting a facelift, is it time for a combined plan for a long-term approach to education in New Zealand to prevent our young people becoming guinea pigs? AUKUS…

John MacDonald: Don't turn a blind eye to last night's spectacle 5:23

6d ago5:23

5:23

One of the cliches people often use when they’re talking about politicians and the way they behave in Parliament is that they behave like “a bunch of kids”. I’ve been hearing people say that forever. And, of course, what they’re talking about is the way politicians sometimes lose their rag when they’re debating things in the House. But Green Party …

Phil Mauger: Christchurch Mayor on the funding for the Arts Centre, Cathedral, and the East Christchurch liaison staff 10:30

6d ago10:30

10:30

Back again for his regular interview, Christchurch’s Mayor Phil Mauger joined John MacDonald in studio on Canterbury Mornings. They dug into the funding issues plaguing Christchurch including updates on the Arts Centre and Cathedral and got the mayor’s thoughts on the Waimakariri and Selwyn Councils’ refusal to contribute to the new stadium. Plus, …

John MacDonald: The only solution is to make people pay 5:04

9d ago5:04

5:04

Remember it wasn’t that long ago that, if you saw someone doing some dodgy driving, you’d wonder whether they got their licence in a WeetBix box. I haven’t heard anyone use that line for a while. But what it meant, of course, was that someone’s driving was so bad it looked as if they didn’t have to do anything to get behind the wheel, to get their …

John MacDonald: Feels like big brother is being put in his place — and it's brilliant 5:00

16d ago5:00

5:00

It feels to me like big brother is being put in his place. And I think it’s brilliant. Well, maybe not completely in his place. But we’re getting there, with this announcement by the Government that it’s going to make it easier for us to get loans and mortgages by giving banks and finance companies more flexibility to decide how they assess whether…

John MacDonald: Christchurch City Council's $13 million question 4:52

19d ago4:52

4:52

You know how you hear people talk about “the million dollar question”? Today, it’s a $13 million dollar question that needs answering. It’s all to do with the streets around the new stadium in the centre of Christchurch: Te Kaha. You might remember, a while back, how the council came up with this idea of spending $34 million getting the streets rea…

Politics Friday: National's Matt Doocey and Labour's Tracey McLellan on the funding of Christchurch's new stadium, digital currency, and the public sector cuts 18:49

19d ago18:49

18:49

Today on Politics Friday National’s Matt Doocey and Labour’s Tracey McLellan joined John MacDonald to dive into this week’s biggest political stories. Christchurch City Council will soon be making decisions surrounding the funding of the new stadium: should the $13 million price tag be paid by ratepayers? Or should the project be put on hold until …

1
John MacDonald: What actually is this waste we're cutting? 5:27

20d ago5:27

5:27

Savage and rushed. That’s how the Public Service Association is describing the Government’s crackdown on public sector spending, after another 1,000 job cuts were announced yesterday alone. Taking the total so far to more than 3,000. I’m going to add “flying blind” to that description. Because I think these cuts are starting to look like cuts for t…

Phil Mauger: Christchurch Mayor on the financial issues surrounding the Cathedral, Arts Centre, the A&P show, and Orana Park 10:34

20d ago10:34

10:34

Funding issues have struck Christchurch, with the Cathedral, the Arts Centre, the A&P Show, and Orana Park all facing financial strife. Mayor Phil Mauger joined John MacDonald to dig into the issues, touching as well on the issue of begging on the streets of Christchurch and the timeline of the Council’s new CEO.

John MacDonald: Enter your local mall at your own risk 4:54

22d ago4:54

4:54

Every time something terrible or tragic happens you hear people trot out a line which, I think, is totally meaningless. Maybe I’ve just become too cynical in my old age. But it was trotted out again on TV last night by a reporter talking about the appalling knife attacks at the mall in Sydney at the weekend. He was talking about an investigation th…

John MacDonald: Should begging be banned? 5:51

23d ago5:51

5:51

It seems to me that the rough sleepers are back on Colombo Street, outside Ballantynes. I went past this morning on the way in and there were a few of them there in the doorway. They were there last week, too. After what seems like ages. But, it doesn’t seem to be the central city where homeless people are causing the most problems at the moment. O…

Today on Politics Friday John MacDonald was joined by National’s Matt Doocey and Labour’s Megan Woods to discuss this week’s biggest stories. They discussed Puberty Blockers, and what the Government will do about us prescribing ten times the number they do in the UK? Will National’s tenancy laws make life worse for renters? Is it time to build more…

John MacDonald: Good night kiwi: can TV be rescued? 4:47

27d ago4:47

4:47

It happens all the time in New Zealand, doesn't it? Something goes pear-shaped and people start banging-on about the Government needing to step-in and do something. And the banging-on is loud in relation to the job losses confirmed by Warner Brothers Discovery and TVNZ. Newshub is closing, as proposed. And TVNZ is ditching the Sunday programme, as …

John MacDonald: Would later starts get more kids turning up at school? 5:10

28d ago5:10

5:10

Instead of banging-on about things like fining parents who don’t send their kids to school, the Government should be finding out what’s already working to sort out school truancy. They won’t do that, though, because some of the things I’ve been reading about would go down like a cup of the proverbial with voters. And you’ve got to keep the voters s…

Chris Hipkins: Labour Leader on the Government's truancy policy and their 2030 targets 7:00

28d ago7:00

7:00

Chris Hipkins says it's important to look beyond school attendance headlines to what's behind the numbers. The Government's unveiled plans to improve reporting of attendance data and bring in a traffic light system of interventions for truant students. It will also release new public health guidance about when a student is well enough to go to scho…

Easter Sunday “Jesus Is Alive” 1 Corinthians 15:1-20 (Stephen Field) 33:01

29d ago33:01

33:01

Jesus is alive! This is the great miracle we celebrate on Easter Sunday. Jesus is Alive! And the world will never be the same again. In today’s sermon, we reflect on what it means that we live in a world where Jesus has been raised into a new and eternal life. We celebrate how this has turned our world around: instead of living in a world where dea…

John MacDonald: Career politicians aren't great, but neither are inexperienced ones 5:18

29d ago5:18

5:18

Do you reckon politicians stay in the job too long? Christopher Luxon thinks so. And I agree with him. Some of them, anyway. They’re a bit like the milk that no one chucks out of the office fridge and one morning you turn-up, go to make yourself a cuppa and there are little floaty bits in your cup. That’s kind of what the Prime Minister was getting…

John MacDonald: What should happen to Christchurch's cathedral? 7:18

1M ago7:18

7:18

I am calling time on my support for the reinstatement of the Anglican cathedral in Cathedral Square. Because we now know that what we suspected is, in fact, true and the whole project is in financial strife and may be about to come to a complete standstill. The job is bigger than first thought and the project needs to find an extra $114 million - t…

John MacDonald: Why all the fuss over Māori wards? 5:49

1M ago5:49

5:49

Some things should never be put to a vote. Because, if they were, nothing would happen. Nothing would change. I’m not the only one who knows this. The Government knows it too. That’s why it’s telling local councils that, if they want to set-up a separate ward for Māori voters, they have to have a public referendum first. The councils are telling th…

Politics Friday: National's Hamish Campbell and Labour's Duncan Webb on Maori wards, potential changes to the Marine Mammals Protection Act, history curriculum 19:17

19:17

Today on Politics Friday John MacDonald was joined by National's Hamish Campbell and Labour's Duncan Webb to dig into the biggest topics from the week. They discussed Māori wards and the need for a referendum, is the central Government interfering in locals' business? What chance does the Christchurch City Council have of changing the Marine Mammal…

John MacDonald: We can only learn from history if we know about it 5:17

1M ago5:17

5:17

When it comes to history lessons, our schools are focussing too much on local and Māori history, leaving out things like national and global history. That’s what’s come through in a report out today from the Education Review Office. But, as someone who studied history at school and came away ignorant of a lot of New Zealand’s history, I don’t see w…

Phil Mauger: Christchurch Mayor says Canterbury tourism officials are in talks to see how to make it easier to host the SailGP 9:41

1M ago9:41

9:41

Canterbury tourism officials are in talks with the Government about how to make it easier to host SailGP races in the future. A dolphin sighting forced the cancellation of one of the two days of races at last month's Lyttleton event. Christchurch’s Mayor Phil Mauger says that changes may be needed. He told John MacDonald that that could include loo…

John MacDonald: Why shouldn't Chch have a rainbow pedestrian crossing? 5:51

1M ago5:51

5:51

When I was in Wellington a few weekends ago, a couple of things happened. One: I was walking down Cuba Street in the central city and it occurred to me how ironic it is that we have probably one of the most conservative governments we’ve had in New Zealand for quite some time, and it’s based in one of the country’s funkiest cities. If not, the funk…

John MacDonald: This is where our driver education is failing 5:01

1M ago5:01

5:01

It was a tragic Easter for some, with seven people dying on the roads - the highest Easter toll in three years, and the second highest in 14. The worst was on State Highway 8 at Pukaki. Three people died at the scene and a fourth person died in hospital. I know exactly where that crash happened because we drove that stretch of road countless times …

John MacDonald: I could never be a teacher 6:08

1M ago6:08

6:08

One thing I know with absolute certainty is that I could never be a schoolteacher. A few more people might be saying that today after the news that the behaviour of school kids in New Zealand has worsened over the past two years, making them among the worst-behaved in the OECD. And I hope that parents around the country are hearing this news and th…

John MacDonald: What a bunch of pushovers we are 5:23

1M ago5:23

5:23

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. We are the People’s Republic of Pushovers. This time, we’ve been pushovers over this apparent cyber-attack on Parliament and spying on our politicians by China. It happened two-and-a-half years ago, but it was only yesterday when we heard about it. It was something of a staged announcement with the United …

Chris Hipkins: Labour Leader on the Chinese cyberattacks and Gloriavale 7:48

1M ago7:48

7:48

The leader of the Opposition says he finds the West Coast Christian community Gloriavale abhorrent. A new documentary series exploring the origins and controversies surrounding the secretive commune has begun airing on TVNZ. Some members have fled in recent years and several are taking Gloriavale to the Employment Court over claims of mistreatment.…

John MacDonald: The cyclone review findings that astound me 4:59

1M ago4:59

4:59

I am astounded by what’s come out of this review into how well-prepared Civil Defence was prior to Cyclone Gabrielle and its immediate emergency response. It wasn’t well prepared at all, it seems. And the worst-case scenario was not planned for. How many years is it since the earthquakes in Canterbury? Thirteen years since February 22nd. Longer sin…

John MacDonald: Do you know what Sir Russell Coutts needs to do? 5:14

1M ago5:14

5:14

Do you know what Sir Russell Coutts needs to do? He needs to pull his head in. Because if his behaviour on Friday wasn’t ungracious enough - saying that a lack of flexibility and what he called “minority groups” having too much say, made Lyttelton non-viable for hosting the SailGP races - yesterday was just nuts. What happened on Friday was a bit o…

“Jesus, Creator God” John 1:1-5 (Stephen Field) 27:58

27:58

We start a new series about Jesus: who He is and why He is the Saviour of the world. But, to begin, we start back in eternity with the topic: Jesus is God our Creator. We consider what it means that God is a Trinity — Father, Son, and Holy Spirit — and so God is eternally in relationship. And we wonder at the God who created the world and created u…

John MacDonald: Government's refinery inquiry is pointless 4:51

2M ago4:51

4:51

It was only November last year when the owner of the Marsden Point oil refinery told the incoming government to forget about any idea of re-opening the Marsden Point Oil Refinery. The Government obviously wasn’t listening though, because the Associate Energy Minister Shane Jones has announced an inquiry into getting the refinery up-and-running agai…

John MacDonald: Cut costs, for sure. But leave the police out of it 5:09

2M ago5:09

5:09

If you think Chris Cahill from the Police Association is talking out of his ear, well, he’s not. And I’ve got a story to prove it. And it shows just how nuts this blanket cost-cutting right across the public sector really is, especially when it comes to the Police. On the very day that we’re finding out how much of a problem retail crime is in New …

John MacDonald: Let’s hope Kāinga Ora gets the message 5:05

2M ago5:05

5:05

There seem to be three main points of view when it comes to the Government’s crackdown on cruddy state housing tenants. We’ve got some people living in Kāinga Ora properties saying they don’t think much will change because we’ve been too soft, for too long. The Green Party isn't happy. It’s describing the crackdown as “politics of punishment”. They…

John MacDonald: At least the drunk uncle can blame the booze 5:35

2M ago5:35

5:35

Can I just remind you of something. During the genocide of European jews during World War 2, which we know as the Holocaust, about six million people were murdered by the Nazis. And the property, homes, and jobs belonging to them were redistributed to the German occupiers and other non-Jews. Yesterday, our Deputy Prime Minister likened what happene…

John MacDonald: Bonding medical graduates isn't realistic 4:24

2M ago4:24

4:24

Should we be bonding new doctors so they can’t just disappear overseas as soon as they leave medical school? One doctor is saying today that we should. But I think he’s dreaming. This is after the news that the Government’s new health targets for things like emergency departments and cancer treatment have a six-year timeframe. The Health Minister d…

John MacDonald: Police have had a gutsful, and rightfully so 5:49

2M ago5:49

5:49

Who would be a cop? Not me. Especially after all the things we’ve been hearing about how disgusted they are with the pay offer that’s landed on the table from the Government. The government that was all pro-cop before the election. But now seems to be putting the screws on the police just as much as the last government did. I was at the traffic lig…

Chris Hipkins: Labour Leader on the recent pay offer to the police and the drop in their polling 8:53

2M ago8:53

8:53

Labour's leader is backing the Police union in claims the latest Government pay offer is insulting. It includes a $5000 pay increase backdated to last November and two 4% salary bumps this year and next. The Police Association has called it a kick in the teeth. Chris Hipkins told John MacDonald that the union rejected an offer which his government …

“Praying in the Ruins of Life” Psalm 74 (Stephen Field) 26:29

2M ago26:29

26:29

How do we pray when our life falls apart? We all have seasons where our life becomes a ruin: our hopes and dreams crumble, our health gives way, relationships fall apart. Our life that was once so orderly and felt so secure has now become disheveled, uncertain, ruinous. Where is God in this season of life? Psalm 74 takes us into this experience and…

John MacDonald: Why not keep the gang's charity money? 4:54

2M ago4:54

4:54

This is a moral dilemma and, maybe, an over-reaction at the same time. At Wellsford, the local Head Hunters chapter had a charity motorbike ride. They raised $2,500 and decided to donate the money to the local volunteer fire brigade - which is raising funds to buy an all-terrain vehicle. They reckon that one of these things would be a very handy ad…

4:33

David Seymour was talking a load of old nonsense yesterday, wasn’t he, when he announced the tax changes for landlords? Now let me make it clear, right from the start, I am not anti-landlord. Because imagine where we’d be if we didn’t have people willing to take risks, buy properties, and make them available for other people to live in. So we need …

John MacDonald: Landlords aren't the emergency housing solution 4:37

2M ago4:37

4:37

The Government says it wants to see less people living in emergency accommodation in motels. My response to that: who doesn’t? It also says it might pay landlords to take on tenants currently living in motels. My response to that: you’re dreaming. And I’m not just saying that. I’ve got official numbers to back it up. Numbers that have come to light…
