This episode of Trans-Tasman Talk covers the climbing of Ayers Rock, white guilt, farmers are fighting back against government erosion of their livelihoods, gun rights, the spy state, and politicians caught in embarrassing situations.
Is it possible to write a bill that's worse than the First Tarrant Law? Apparently it is. It all goes wrong in the preamble. Owning firearms is a right, and the wording that claims to the contrary cannot change that fact.
The legacy media have not defended free speech for ordinary citizens or the alt-media, but now have concerns they might lose their own voice and are pressing the issue.
In this episode Tim and Dieuwe discuss the Nobel Peace Prize, Extinction Week, the local election, the latest polls, and the March for the Babies. Watch the show live every Tuesday at 9pm.
This weeks live talkshow covered daylight savings, the Extinction Rebellion disruptions, Scott Morison's latest anti-globalist speech, local elections in NZ, the 250th anniversary of Captain Cook's discovery, and the end of NZ donations to the Clinton Foundation.
Fifty lucky New Zealanders were invited to Beijing to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the brutal, murderous, evil, and oppressive reign of the Communist Party of China. Among then was spy-turned-politician Jian Yang.
The global political climate has continued to change this past week. President Trump is now being subjected to impeachment hearings in the House. The People’s Republic of China is celebrating 70 years of Communist rule.
One of the coolest things to come out of the United Nations climate thingy was a new free trade deal between five small nations. The whole thing is also a bit funny as these nations combined make up 0.31% of the global greenhouse gas emissions.
Presented in association with The Unshackled. Trans-Tasman Talk (TTT) is hosted by Tim Wilms from Melbourne and Dieuwe de Boer from Auckland. The show debuts every Tuesday at 9pm New Zealand time (and 7pm Melbourne time).
In her speech to the United Nations, our dear leader Jacinda Ardern said the following: "Our globalised, borderless world asks us to be guardians not just for our people, but for all people."
As I write this, it has just been revealed that the remains of 2,246 aborted babies were found in the home of an Indiana abortionist. It's estimated that he killed over fifty thousand babies in his career.
Our second show explores similar issues currently affecting our nations and how they're being handled differently on either side of the Tasman. From China, to the waning perception of Jacinda, to the abortion bills before Parliament.
For our first show we explore the different issues affecting our two connected nations. While she is beloved by the world, Jacinda Ardern’s Prime Ministership is falling apart in New Zealand. Her big government projects are crumbling.
Liam Hehir, Stuff's token moderate, has decided to call it quits. His reasons are fairly noble: he wants to spend more time with his family and having to write a weekly column is too much pressure.
The government is remaining tight-lipped on how well the gun confiscation programme is going. They release the total figure of firearms purchased to date, but 15,276 firearms means nothing without some context.
It was the first week of June when my friend Jesse Anderson tragically took his own life. We had been creating the Right Minds Podcast together for nearly three months, meeting most Tuesday nights to have dinner, chat, plan, and record.
The government has announced that it plans to introduce reforms to New Zealand's abortion law reforms. This is an emotive topic, and it's not one I particularly want to write about, but I cannot in all good conscience remain silent on the issue.
I've written on Folau twice. First during the minor skirmish with the anti-Christian media last year, and then I covered it a second time during the opening salvo of this new war. I genuinely expected things to die down.
