ACT's Brooke van Velden on The Budget, Teachers Excellence & Palestine: May 26, 2021

This week James and Brooke talk about some of the top things in Aotearoa's current affairs, touching on the 2021 budget, Palestine, and teachers excellence.

James starts of asking about the budget which ACT has opposed, inquiring into whether they saw any positives come from it at all.

Teachers Excellence is next on the agenda, with ACT proposing a 250 million dollar annual fund is put towards rewarding teachers excellence in response to the government freezing public sector wages.

Lastly, James asks about Palestine, questioning where ACT's stand point is in relation to condemning violence and whether they support a 2 state solution.
