"So the Conservative Party of course, hasn't really helped itself in the last few years. We've had four leaders in the space of four years. So again, it's not been a very stable Conservative Party, a lot of in house fighting that's gone on even, in the last year or so, lots of resignations, lots of, I think, maybe complacency in 14 years of power." Sunil Sharma, political commentator from the Global Conservative Coalition calls in to discuss the recent UK Elections.

"A lot of New Zealanders don't understand that if police want to raid a gang house, to go after drugs or anything else, they need a search warrant from a judge to approve that. If you're a licensed firearms owner, you give up that right... and I don't see how that can be deemed an appropriate thing that the rest of New Zealand should be happy with as a precedent." Hugh Devereux-Mack, spokesperson for the Council of Licenced Firearms Owners and marketer for NZ Deerstalkers Association joins Cam to discuss the challenges faced for gun owners in NZ and what the Firearms Act could mean.

"I just couldn't help but laugh because I just thought it was absolutely ridiculous. Like, "Good luck with that", is what I said. You know, it's so deep, the trust that has been broken with a lot of people. I did offer that I thought that, a step in the right direction, as a beginning would be some serious apologies and also for accountability to be seen to be done publicly."

"So the total number of New Zealanders that left, was 80 something thousand, 85,000, I believe. And the net number of New Zealanders that left was about 60,000. And that's simply because some New Zealanders come back. So there's a difference between the net number of New Zealanders who left and the total number of New Zealanders who left. But in both cases, those were record numbers of New Zealanders leaving." William McGimpsey returns to share his view on free speech issues, the latest immigration numbers from Stats NZ, and the National Conservative conference in Washington.

"And what they said in their coalition agreements that were, they would defend the principle that New Zealanders are equal before the law and that they, the coalition will not advance policies that seek to ascribe different rights and responsibilities to New Zealanders on the basis of their race or their ancestry... if the Iwi representative on the expert panels is not on the basis of race, then I don't know what it is." Dr Muriel Newman from NZCPR joins us to talk about whether the Government’s new fast-track Bill is a back door for co-governance policies.

"Well before Wuhan, there was a pandemic occurring that in the end will be more lethal than the communist Chinese one. A pandemic of infantilism, arrested development, the retention of childish, physical, mental, or emotional qualities in adult life. I have tried to draw attention to the fact that nowhere is this pandemic more manifest than in speech."

"So she'd been diagnosed since she was caught, with complex post traumatic stress disorder and prolonged duress stress disorder. I've got to tell you, this upsets me. I had the great privilege when I was an MP of helping some Vietnam veterans who did have PTSD. This trivialises it."

"And my mum and dad were completely reasonable in what they wanted for me. And it hurt, it hurt for them every step along the way to see my body change, to see parts of it get removed. To see me basically be transformed into somebody who I wasn't, somebody completely unrecognisable over the course of the last few years, it was so incredibly painful and traumatic for my mum and dad." In a Breakfast special report, Maree Buscke speaks with American teenage de-transitioner Chloe Cole about her journey to transgender and back again, and her critique of the dangers of gender medicine.

"I think they do not like to see anybody that stood up against Jacinda Ardern's Government as human. So they need to create, no matter what experience you're going through, no matter the trauma that you've been through, they don't actually care about that. They just need to still maintain that narrative that you're actually not an acceptable human to society." Chantelle Baker joins us to tell us firsthand about her shocking experience of extreme road rage, all with an infant in the back seat.
