Should or shouldn’t New Zealand become a republic?
It’s a quandary that’s sparked fierce debate over decades, and it’s back on the agenda as King Charles heads down under for his first tour – but is skipping New Zealand.
With his visit prompting debate over in Australia, is it time for New Zealand to consider becoming a republic?
Today on The Front Page, Republic NZ’s Peter Hamilton joins us to discuss this issue and what a monarchy-free New Zealand could look like.
We did invite Monarchy NZ to participate in this discussion, but they declined.
