Description
Frontline Kiwi workers are struggling to pay for food and rent, while politicians are giving away billions to the very rich. Public services are being cut back, privatised, and sold off. This is not how you build a stronger, healthier, or safer society. It’s time to stop the vandalism and rebuild NZ.
Join Dr Gary Payinda and guests on The Frontline.
