John MacDonald: No mention of money doesn't make today's apology hollow 6:35

3h ago6:35

6:35

When it comes to apologies there are generally two types: a sincere apology and a hollow apology. And survivors of abuse in state or religious care are saying that the Prime Minister’s apology today for that abuse is hollow, because the Government isn’t saying anything today about redress or compensation. The Government’s position is that it needs …

John MacDonald: Should the taxpayer chip-in for your solar panels? 5:14

1d ago5:14

5:14

If you’ve got solar panels on the roof, you’ll be loving the blue skies. And a solar energy advocate is saying today that those of us who don’t should be getting financial support from the Government. Mike Casey says New Zealand is one of the few western countries that doesn’t provide subsidies for solar energy. He says, in Australia, people can ge…

“Living By Faith” Hebrews 10:32-39; 2 Corinthians 5:6-10 (Stephen Field) 22:25

1d ago22:25

22:25

We can not control the era of history we are born into. We can not determine whether our time will be prosperous or challenging. Throughout history, people of faith have had to face invasion, captivity, drought, and depravation; while other people of faith have enjoyed times of prosperity, power, and comfort. The call of faith is to live in every s…

John MacDonald: Health and Safety is off the rails 5:24

4d ago5:24

5:24

You'll have your own way of describing this crazy situation where we’ve got KiwiRail telling the Christchurch City Council that it has to close a 1.5 kilometre stretch of cycleway for two years, because the cycleway needs some safety improvements. KiwiRail reckons the Heathcote Express cycleway, which is near a railway crossing, is so dangerous tha…

Today on Politics Friday, John MacDonald was joined by National’s Vanessa Weenink and Labour’s Reuben Davidson to dig into some of the biggest political stories of the week. Christchurch City Council is pushing back against the closure of a cycleway at Heathcote, KiwiRail ordering upgrades due to a one in one-thousand-year risk. Is this really acce…

John MacDonald: I'm not buying into the Trump hysteria 5:34

5d ago5:34

5:34

I think I’m going to trust my gut instinct more often. Because yesterday, I didn’t like the idea of it, but my gut was telling me that Donald Trump was going to win the presidential election. And because I’m going to listen to my gut instinct more often, today I’m going to tell you that —even if we don't like it— we need to calm the farm a bit with…

John MacDonald: What my gut instinct is telling me about the US presidency 5:07

6d ago5:07

5:07

Historic. Knife edge. Too close to call. That’s what they’re all saying about today’s presidential election in the States. What you never see though, splashed across the screens on CNN and Sky News and BBC, is “gut instinct”. My gut tells me that it’s going to be Donald Trump. And, this is the great thing about gut instinct, it doesn't really matte…

Chris Hipkins: Labour Leader on the US Election, Treaty Principles Bill, AI use in schools 7:35

Labour is lamenting the Treaty Principles Bill even seeing the light of day. David Seymour's controversial bill will be introduced in Parliament tomorrow. Labour Leader Chris Hipkins says if implemented it would throw away years of legal precedent. He told John MacDonald that National allowing the bill to get this far is irresponsible. Hipkins says…

John MacDonald: Boot camps must not add to our abuse shame 5:48

7d ago5:48

5:48

The plan to give “use of force” powers to the people running the Government’s new boot camps for young criminals is getting a bit of attention today. Or military academies as the Prime Minister was calling them this morning. The Children’s Minister has got this idea that, if you’re involved in running a boot camp, you should have the same powers as…

“Doubt and Faith” Mark 9:14–27; Matthew 28:16–20 (Stephen Field) 34:07

8d ago34:07

34:07

Is doubt the opposite of faith? In Scripture, people are both challenged and commended for their doubt. The key question is, “What direction is your doubt taking you in?” Today we explore the topic of the purpose and meaning of doubt. We see that unbelief, not doubt, is the opposite of faith. And we examine how faith and doubt are actually family m…

John MacDonald: Don't panic about the police mental health call-out changes 6:26

8d ago6:26

6:26

From today, the police don’t intend to respond to every mental health callout. But I don’t think we’re going to see any major difference. I’ll tell you why shortly,. And it’s based on an experience I had on Friday night. So if you’re worried about the police saying “not our department” if you call up, as of today, about someone having a mental heal…

John MacDonald: We need to ditch this obsession with uni degrees 5:32

11d ago5:32

5:32

I didn’t go to university and there’s a bit of a dad joke that I trot out about that now and again. I say that I’m a student of life, in no rush to graduate. So maybe I’m coming at this with a biased view of the world, but I agree with this academic at the University of Canterbury who is saying today that universities have just become factories tha…

Today on Politics Friday, John MacDonald was joined by National’s Vanessa Weenink and Labour’s Tracey McLellan for a chat about the latest political happenings. The agenda today had a bit of a health skew, as they discussed whether it might be time for a user-pays approach to health and if single-patient hospital rooms are the way of the future. An…

John MacDonald: Mike King was right. But he was wrong too 5:32

12d ago5:32

5:32

It’s Gumboot Friday tomorrow and the guy behind it, Mike King, seems to have put his foot in it. Although, I’m a little bit torn on this one. So what’s happened is we’ve got this charity fashion show being held in Dunedin to raise money for suicide prevention and mental health awareness. And, like most events, the organisers wanted to serve alcohol…

John MacDonald: What's so wrong with slower traffic outside schools? 5:23

13d ago5:23

5:23

If I say to you “30 kph speed limit area”, chances are you can think of one. I can think of one straight away - on the southern end of Colombo Street in Christchurch. You’re cruising along at 50 kph and then —bang— it drops down to 30. No schools on that stretch of Colombo. There’s a school on one of the side streets, but it goes down to 30 —and it…

John MacDonald: Hi-de-hi campers! Christchurch's campervan clanger 4:36

14d ago4:36

4:36

When I heard that a campervan park is going to be up and running in central Christchurch, near Latimer Square —possibly in time for this summer— my first thought was that I’m glad I haven’t spent more than $500,000 buying an apartment around there. Not even the developer’s reassurances that campervan people aren’t “yahoo types” made me feel any mor…

16d ago27:48

27:48

“Come to Jesus and life will be easy and free of trouble!” Well, that’s what we might want to believe, but the truth is that faith in Jesus is not an escape from troubles. In fact, a common answer to prayer is for Jesus to assure us that He is with us in our troubles. Today, we explore some Bible verses that describe the fact the troubles in life w…

John MacDonald: How do you feel about parenting lessons in school? 6:27

18d ago6:27

6:27

“There for the grace of God goes I.” We generally say it when something bad and we know that it could just as easily happen to us, and anyone who is a parent should say that whenever they hear nightmare stories about kids being abused by their parents or caregivers. I say that not just as a by-stander looking on. I say that as someone with three ki…

Politics Friday: National's Hamish Campbell and Labour's Reuben Davidson on Oranga Tamariki, fireworks, and performance pay for the public sector 18:45

18:45

John MacDonald was joined by National’s Hamish Campbell and Labour’s Reuben Davidson for Politics Friday. On the agenda today was yet another case of Oranga Tamariki failing to act on information pertaining to child welfare – is it time to start parenting courses to help with the stress of raising children? A petition has launched, looking at banni…

John MacDonald: Performance pay's no bonus for the public sector 5:15

19d ago5:15

5:15

I feel really uncomfortable about the idea of public sector bosses getting performance pay. Not that the Government is going to care too much about that, because it’s confirmed that, from the middle of next year, that’s what’s going to be happening. It’s unclear to me at this stage whether it’s going to mean the heads of all our government departme…

John MacDonald: Here's how we could keep local councils on track 5:52

5:52

After saying just the other week that I don’t agree with central Government taking over local councils when things go pear-shaped, I’ve changed my tune. Slightly. And I’ve got an idea to run past you. First, though, can you imagine what it must feel like being a mayor and getting the phone call from the Beehive saying ‘you’re doing a pretty cruddy …

Labour Leader Chris Hipkins joined John MacDonald for their regular catchup. On today’s agenda: Andrew Bayly is in hot water for his “offensive comments” during a Ministerial visit – what are his party’s thoughts on the situation? Is it time to have central government reporting on local councils to mitigate the chances of what’s happening in Wellin…

Q&A about Sabbath 36:32

21d ago36:32

36:32

As part of our 10 Commandments series at https://www.cgcc.org.au/, we had a question-and-answer time regarding the commandments surrounding the Sabbath from: Exodus 20:8–11, which says: [8] “Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. [9] Six days you shall labor, and do all your work, [10] but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the LORD your God. On i…

John MacDonald: Does the government really think this is going to work? 4:45

21d ago4:45

4:45

Sometimes you just have to resort to cliches, because there are times when there’s just no other way to say it. Or no better way to say it. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over-and-over and expecting different results. That’s how I feel about the Government strengthening its Three Strikes law to make it easier to keep repeat offe…

You can call me a nerd, if you want to. But I reckon there is nothing like the performance of walking down to your local polling booth on voting day and casting your vote. The way we do every three years when we’re electing a Government. In the general election. There’s no confusion. It’s well-publicised. You can do early voting, if you want to or …

“Heroes of Faith” Hebrews 11:3–16, 32-39 (Stephen Field) 33:19

23d ago33:19

33:19

Stories of faith in the Bible are often simplified to a narrative of a person experiencing surprising things and believing for crazy things in the face of great opposition. But this is not how faith is most commonly shown in the pages of the Bible. So what does faith look like? Today we explore Hebrews 11 and those people listed as great examples o…

What’s the thing you hear people say time-and-time again about the way we seemed to just get on with the job of building infrastructure back in, say, the 1970s? What’s the most common thing you hear people say about that? They say “our forebears had the foresight”. And that’s what I hope Christchurch city councillors have when they decide whether o…

A blow to South Canterbury as Timaru's Smithfield meat-works is confirmed to be closing. The entire nearly 140-year-old site will close by December's end. Alliance Group's told staff they'll be offered re-deployment at its other processing plants, where possible. Waimakariri MP Matt Doocey told John MacDonald that he's gutted. He says it'll impact …

John MacDonald: ACC is in desperate need of treatment 6:34

26d ago6:34

6:34

Here’s my perception of ACC: some people get ACC pay-outs at the drop of a hat and others have to fight, for what can be years. And it’s the fighting bit that seems to be biting ACC on the backside, with the news that it’s gone from having a $900 million surplus last year to a $7.2 billion deficit this year. It’s saying one of the reasons for that …

Christchurch's mayor is keeping mum about seeking re-election. First time mayor Phil Mauger took the reins in 2022 after narrowly beating former health boss David Meates. City Councillor Sara Templeton has announced her bid for mayor a year out from local body elections. Mauger wouldn’t confirm to John MacDonald whether he's decided to run. He says…

27d ago5:12

5:12

The highest court in the land is too big for its boots. That’s what the guy who runs the New Zealand Initiative think tank is saying today. Roger Partridge is his name - he’s also a lawyer and King’s Counsel. And he says the Supreme Court needs to be reined-in because he thinks it’s trying to re-write the laws made by Parliament. One of the example…

John MacDonald: Less eyebrow raising, more glad-eye for foreign investors 4:59

29d ago4:59

4:59

I think we need to get over ourselves here in New Zealand when it comes to foreign investment. And it looks like we’re going to have to get over ourselves - whether we want to or not - with the Government’s plan to make it easier for foreign investors to buy New Zealand companies and properties. The way I’d describe it is that, at the moment, the G…

There are a lot of weird things in the world, but one of the weirdest would have to be the international drivers licence. You know, you’re licensed to drive in one country, but a little bit of paper lets you drive in any country. It doesn’t matter that you know next to nothing about the road rules or the driving conditions. But tell that to the Gov…

Chris Hipkins: Labour Leader on the Health NZ financial deficit and the crackdown on dodgy builders 9:18

9:18

Labour leader Chris Hipkins claims the Government's failure to compensate for the nurses’ pay rise has driven Health New Zealand's budget blowout. The agency's finances jumped from an expected half-a-billion dollar surplus to a $1.4 billion deficit in April. It's now expected to blow out to $1.76 billion. Chris Hipkins told John MacDonald that ther…

John MacDonald: Let's not keep running down our defence force 6:20

1M ago6:20

I think we need to see the New Zealand Navy ship sinking as a wake-up call. Not the sinking itself, but what it’s going to mean for our Navy and our wider defence force. The fact that we’re probably going to lose a truckload of money because of the ship being under-insured isn’t an issue for me and I wasn’t overly surprised when Finance Minister Ni…

“Faith and Works” James 2:14–20, 26 (Stephen Field) 31:23

31:23

What does faith look like when put into action? Depending on what Church tradition you were raised in will shape how you see the interaction between faith and works. For some of us, faith means waiting and not working for our relief. For others, our actions are all that count and can be separated from faith. In our reading today, James puts faith a…

1M ago5:47

5:47

The Government's fast track legislation is shaping up to be a real cluster. Especially, in Greater Christchurch. I think some of the projects it wants to get going here sooner rather than later are making its new legislation more ram-raid than fast track. So it's released details of 149 projects that will be included in the Bill which, it says, is …

I don’t know whether Mary Richardson is a martyr or a mug. But, I tell you what, the acting chief executive at Christchurch City Council has shown outstanding leadership, not just outstanding leadership - she’s also shown outstanding political nous with this $100,000 pay cut. She demanded it because of the financial pressures the council and ratepa…

John MacDonald: The anti-food truck argument doesn't make sense to me 5:43

1M ago5:43

5:43

I think the hospitality outfits trying to shut down the Arts Centre’s plans to have more food trucks on-site need to pull their heads in. Annabelle Turley from the Central City Business Association has made the bold demand that the council pull its funding from the Arts Centre if the food truck thing goes ahead. This all goes back to the city counc…

Christchurch's Mayor isn't swayed either way on a clash between city hospitality and food trucks. The Arts Centre Trust is applying for up to 33 food trucks to operate on the site. The Central Business Association says that's unfair, given businesses subsidise the centre and commercial rates are higher than residential. Mayor Phil Mauger told John …
