On this week's podcast:
He arrived in Australia from London, at age twelve with his parents. They were a poor family.
But Maurice Newman graduated from the University of Sydney with a degree in Economics. He spent forty years in stockbroking and related areas.
His list of positions included Chairmanships of Banks, a University, the Stock Exchange, and other political and charity achievements.
We discussed New Zealand, he loves the place, but he is not happy with the way we are heading.
We update matters relating to the WHO, and media coverage.
And we visit The Mailroom with Mrs Producer.
