New Zealand

Jonny Dymond and a panel of political leaders face questions from across New Zealand.

High rents, rising food costs and a perceived lack of opportunities are driving young people out of New Zealand. Last year, more people left than ever before. Immigrants are replacing their numbers, but do they have the skills that the country is losing? What can be done to improve living conditions and stop the loss of young talent? The current government has opened the question of Maori land rights in a quest to exploit the New Zealand natural resources. An attempt to overturn a historic treaty failed last year, but as New Zealand faces an election in the autumn, the issue will not go away. There is much to debate for Jonny Dymond and a panel of political leaders as they face questions from across the country.
