Kiwi’s eating habits seem to be changing.

New research from Mondelez shows that almost half of Gen Z prefer snacking over dinner, and 40% skip breakfast in favour of a snack.

On average 27% of people skip breakfast, 13% lower than the results in the study.

Nutritionist Nikki Hart told Mike Hosking that we’re definitely seeing a change in behaviour, and it’s not necessarily a good one.

She thinks that Covid changed how younger generations approached eating, as staying up later and online classes allow more opportunities to snack.

New teachers across the country are not being set up to succeed, according to the Education Review Office (ERO).

Two thirds of principals are reporting new teachers coming into the role are unprepared, and a third of new primary teachers claim they are unprepared to teach science.

The ERO is calling for more to be done.

Ruth Shinoda, Head of ERO’s Education Evaluation Centre, tells Mike Hosking the combination of teachers themselves saying they don’t feel prepared, and their principals reiterating this is concerning.

A new proposal could see protest groups in the UK banned in a similar way to terrorist organisations. 

Extracts of an upcoming report show recommendations will be made for a new category proscribing “extreme protest groups”, defining these as those which routinely use criminal tactics to try to achieve their aims. Protest groups such as Just Stop Oil and Palestine Action could have sanctions that restrict the groups’ ability to fundraise and rights to assembly in the UK.

Plus,a new device might cut down hospital time for cancer patients. 

The Liberty has been given regulatory approval. The device allows patients to take blood tests and upload the results at home without supervision.

Europe correspondent Gavin Grey tells Mike Hosking the device has only been tested on a small number of types of cancer.
