    TVNZ needs completely rebuilding. Our TV Channel should be the go to place for truthful and unbiased news of current affairs and political commentary. But TV 1 has been taken over by Left Wing political commentators and woke current affairs presenters. A vast majority have voted by using their on/ off switch which shows their contempt for that which is being offered by TVNZ. The public have no say regarding our own TV 1 and our cowardly Politicians refuse to act on the public’s behalf. No wonder the country is in such a mess

    you need to require every Chancellor of a university to provide the government with a written plan on how to get their University to improve their standing in the world university academic rankings in order to keep their job and get their public funding. This is needed because ALL of our universities are sliding academic rankings very dramatically, have done for years, and the slide is accelerating not slowing down. we need to stop the wokeness from the top.
