Immigration, Marriage, and National Defence | The Select Committee

In this episode of The Select Committee, we discuss ACT’s new immigration policy and ask whether it’s shaping up to be a major issue at the election.

We then turn to new marriage and divorce statistics, exploring what declining marriage rates reveal, the limits of public policy, and what governments can do to address these kinds of social challenges.

Finally, we examine growing concerns about New Zealand’s preparedness for global instability, asking why Australia appears more focused on national defence than we do.

We wrap the show with our favourite segment, Fantasy Beehive, where we rank MP performance through our highly advanced, completely proprietary technology.
