It’s been a year since terrorist group Hamas launched a surprise attack on Israel – sparking the deadliest conflict in the Gaza region for decades. 

Since then, at least 40,000 people have died, many more injured, 1.9 million displaced, and countless buildings and homes destroyed. 

Aid organisations have consistently warned of the humanitarian crisis on the ground – and are pleading with the world for help. 

Today on The Front Page, World Vision New Zealand’s Head of Advocacy and Justice, Rebekah Armstrong discusses the extent of the crisis after a year of fighting.

Mark Mitchell has heralded the government’s promise to be tough on crime.

He’s been incredibly clear from the get-go that his primary goal is to make New Zealand an uncomfortable place for gangs to operate.

He holds five portfolios: Police, Corrections, Emergency Management and Recovery, Ethnic Communities, and Sports and Recreation.

So, how does an MP with so many hats feel about how his government has tackled the big issues?

Today on The Front Page, Mitchell joins us to talk cops, corrections, and communities.

Act Party leader David Seymour will become New Zealand’s deputy prime minister tomorrow, taking over from Winston Peters.

He will be the 19th person to be the country’s second in command.

First elected to Parliament in 2014 – the last decade and a bit has seen Seymour’s meteoric rise from being his party’s sole MP to now sitting alongside 10 colleagues after Act’s best ever result in the 2023 election.

That result has allowed him to push through big changes around issues like regulation and government spending – but championing legislation such as the Treaty Principles Bill has also made him a lightning rod for controversy and backlash.

Today on The Front Page, Seymour joins us to talk his new role, backlash, regulations – and his thoughts on the opposition.

From entering Parliament in 2008 – to leading the country in 2023 – Chris Hipkins is no stranger to the spotlight.

During Covid’s beginnings, he was known as a safe set of hands, tackling Education, Health, and becoming the Minister in charge of the Covid Response for a time.

Now, he’s firmly setting his sights on election 2026 – but, is he confident he’ll still be in Labour’s driving seat when it rolls around?

Today on The Front Page, Hipkins joins us to discuss the cost of living, vibes in parliament, and whether he’ll ever be able to shake Covid.
