About this listen

 Are we holding Kiwi farmers to gold-plated standards while waving cheap imports straight through the border? This week we take on what Duncan calls the double standard threatening to force local producers out of business. From pork and eggs to animal welfare rules, farmers say they’re being hammered at home while competing against products made under standards we’ve already banned. Then it’s politics. Ani O’Brien and Maurice Williamson join us to dissect Chris Hipkins’ “state of the nation” speech, the cost of living reality facing households, and whether voters are actually feeling any economic bounce. We also get into billion-dollar power company profits, Air New Zealand’s big loss, and whether selling it is the answer. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
