Leighton Smith Podcast Episode 207 - August 16th 2023
Episode description
On this week's podcast:
Turbo-charged by Covid-19 and a poverty of basic intelligence, common sense and irreparably bad ideas, the New Zealand health care system is in dire straights.
We are in crisis, and, as a result, it is at the forefront of election issues.
Emeritus Professor Des Gorman levels his sights on the issues and how to resolve them; especially the increasing shortage of GP’s.
We pay tribute to a great man Merrill Fernando.
The mailroom delivers a great collection of comment.
And at the back-end of 207, an ex-National MP provides a written assault on the state of politics in NZ.
