"Unemployment is at its highest level in more than a decade, but one expert offers a silver lining, saying that could actually be a sign of early economic growth."
#TheDetail, Feb 2026
That's some impressively wishful thinking right there!

Now it seems like we're looking at another round of forced amalgamation of local bodies, with Auckland's "supercity" council as the model. The first step being arbitrarily firing all regional councillors and adding their responsibilities to the jobs of city and district mayors.
Two RNZ shows have reported on this over the last week or so, Focus on Politics;

The real headline here is about how the casual use of Auror for Police surveillance ...
"... raised concerns about privacy for everyday Kiwis."
Instead, the headline editors chose for this episode of The Detail is;
"A retail crime-fighting app helping police track repeat offenders"
https://www.rnz.co.nz/podcast/the-detail?share=a6569f88-3260-4503-af87-14ce4b9f3d21
What's up with that?

@SimonCHulse I heard about this on #TheDetail recently and thought similarly.
I totally get wanting drivers to be safe and that's really important... this is all part of the puzzle that is society, families, communities breaking down, needing help 😢 . I don't know the answers 😕 🤷

The most revealing quote: "There was a survey done about 10 years ago that suggested the majority of #National supporters don't know anybody who lives on a #benefit... so it becomes very easy to imagine that everyone on a benefit is lazy and exploiting the system."

Finally got back to the rest of this podcast about telecommunications in natural disasters;
https://www.rnz.co.nz/programmes/the-detail/story/2018881865/preventing-a-communications-blackout-in-the-next-big-disasterWorth revisiting in the context of the threatened viability of the AM Network, with its funding increasingly in question.
Battery-powered transistor radios are a cheap way to guarantee people's access to live information in emergency situations. But only if there are broadcasting towers strong enough to reach them.

"The argument that I'm really wanting to make in Raising the Bar is, that's a really dangerous thing to do to young people, is to strip them of their imagination. And particular kinds of schooling can do that, and do it really quickly."
