On the show, host Salvatore Babones will speak with Dr Oliver Hartwich, Executive Director of fellow free-market think tank The New Zealand Initiative in Wellington.
New Zealand is envied for its zero community cases of Covid-19, but the economy is hurting and the current hard border closure is controversial. Right now, all focus is on the present.
