‘LUXON AT THE HELM: WHAT’S HAPPENED SO FAR, AND WHAT TO EXPECT’
The National-led government has just delivered its 100-day plan. Don't miss Max Rashbrooke's analysis of their performance to date...

Much of the 100-day plan is designed to undo Labour's legacy. The government is now starting to shape its own vision of New Zealand. What will that look like - and in particular, what will it mean for economic inequality and poverty?

Max Rashbrooke is Senior Research Fellow at Victoria University's School of Government, a writer and commentator with twin interests in economic inequality and democratic renewal. His latest book is 'Too Much Money: How Wealth Disparities are Unbalancing Aotearoa New Zealand'. He's also well-known for his regular columns, public lectures and media interviews, and for his TED talk on upgrading democracy, which has had 1.5m views.

Where? Café Yaza, Montgomery Square, Nelson

When? Wednesday 24 April at 7.30pm

Yaza opens for dining and drinks 6.00pm - conversation 7.30-9.30pm.

Bring a friend, discuss, eat, drink, listen, question and comment.

Koha to cover costs – no reservations.
