We examine two hysterical media reports from Stuff and Radio NZ which panic about “far-right” students in schools who may be closet “trad-wives”, or worse still, hold conservative views. Perhaps they’re just the sensible ones who don’t buy the left wing narrative being indoctrinated by the teachers’ union and the Ministry of Education. Of course, every left-wing student is a perfect little angel.

In THE FATHERHOOD MANIFESTO, former New York Times and now independent journalist Alex Berenson, author of the best-selling and groundbreaking “Unreported Truths” series on COVID – and father of three – offers a unique, punchy, and long-overdue take on why fathers matter – and how to be a better dad. Berenson says that it stands as a necessary corrective to a culture that has devalued fatherhood and the masculine parenting virtues of stoicism and independence. For far too long, mainstream parenting guides have pretended that “gentle parenting” is the secret to child-rearing – and that fathers are simply less empathetic moms. This lie – and it is a lie – has done huge damage to fathers, their sons and daughters, families, and society.

We speak to NZ First leader Winston Peters about the “Legislation (Definitions of Woman and Man) Amendment Bill” which is due for its first reading in Parliament very soon. What does the bill say, what is the purpose of the bill, will it actually achieve its aims, and how likely is it to get past its first reading and to a select committee process. Will other MPs ‘man up’? We also ask Winston what he would say to people who question whether he might go with Labour after the election.
