Think local politics is boring? Think again. Taryn chats with the mayors and council chairs shaping Taranaki and asks them the stuff you actually want to know.
We walked into this kōrero ready to talk politics, and somehow ended up deep in Christmas costumes, ADHD chat, and everything in between. This episode with Max Brough is fast, funny, and full of the kind of banter that only happens when a mayor relaxes and actually enjoys himself. Taryn and Max talk about his exploits as The Grinch, what he bought his wife for Christmas, and how to wake the neighbours up on a Sunday morning. But woven through the laughs are the real questions: are rates caps actually achievable, and what could the Government’s plan to replace regional councillors mean for NPDC, local democracy, and tangata whenua? Tune in for both the fun and the insight.
