Show Notes
Posie Parker’s brief but controversial visit to New Zealand got our politicians talking.
Whether defending free speech and ‘white cis men’ or standing up for one of the marginalised groups in this country, politicians from all sides of the spectrum weighed in on her visit.
But as our politicians take sides, are they at risk of bringing overseas ‘culture wars’ to Aotearoa – and are they willing to deepen divisions in an already fractured country, in exchange for a few votes at the election?
Today, Dr Lara Greaves, associate professor of politics at Victoria University of Wellington, is with Damien to discuss battles our politicians are choosing to fight.
