People respond to election losses in various ways, from protesting to legal action to considering moving country.

But, what about adopting a vow of celibacy through something called the “4B movement”?

That’s what some young women in the US have promised on social media in protest of Donald Trump winning back the White House.

No dating. No sex, No childbirth. And no marriage.

In a world where: the next US President was found liable for sexual abuse, online vitriol against women is skyrocketing,  and the term “your body, my choice” is trending online... how effective could this 4B movement be?

 University of Otago PhD candidate Rachel Billington has researched how young people interact with each other online, and joins us now on The Front Page to discuss this growing movement.

David Seymour’s Treaty Principles Bill was introduced to Parliament last week – with its first reading debate scheduled for today.

The bill has sparked fierce criticism since it was included as part of National and Act’s coalition agreement last year. 

Protests are expected outside Parliament today, while thousands of marchers protesting Government policies affecting Maori crossed the Auckland Harbour Bridge yesterday as part of a hikoi to Parliament.

So, now that we’ve actually seen the Bill, what’s in it, and what are the chances of it actually getting across the line?

Today on The Front Page, Newstalk ZB political editor Jason Walls joins us to discuss one of the most contentious Government bills in recent memory.

Treaty Principles Bill: The controversial bill arrives in Parliament as protests continue

As votes continue to be counted in the US, President-elect Donald Trump has swept all seven battleground states, confirming his dominant performance in the country’s election.

While many were shocked that the US would return to Trump after four years, many voters have made it clear their feelings about high inflation and the cost of living under the Biden administration swayed them towards the Republicans.

It’s a similar sentiment that helped National, Act and NZ First ascend to power in our election last year.

But, in a global economic environment, how much sway does one political leader have over how much you're paying for groceries and petrol?

Today on The Front Page, we discuss this with NZ Herald business editor at large, Liam Dann.

Can Trump fix America's economic problems - or are they bigger than one politician?

Gen Z can be credited with a few things – an uptick in climate awareness, the ability to work any kind of technology, and the revival of straight leg jeans, just to name a few.

However, recruiters across the ditch in Australia have spoken out about Gen Z graduates’ demands on employers –saying their arrogant expectations are leaving a bad taste in their bosses’ mouths.

The oldest of the generation, born between 1997 and 2012, are 27 years old, so they are set to stick around in the workplace for quite some time.

So are they in their wrong with their approach to work, or are they actually onto something?

Today on The Front Page, recruitment agency Robert Walters, CEO of Australia & NZ Shay Peters, joins us to discuss the impact of our youngest generation of workers.

Gen Z in the workplace: Are they asking for too much or setting a new standard?
