Thank you again for tuning in, this is the last show before the return of the wonderful Sigrid 💚 it's been a pleasure covering. And Happy 4/20 🍁 We kicked off with a brand spanking new King Krule cut from the new album then cycled through some tasty electronic (dub, 140, house) picks from the likes of Burland, LSN, CaruX Dylan Biscuit, Varhat and a large Benny L remix. We rolled back to a La Caution classic from Ocean's Twelve, then finished off today's show with some Smashing Pumpkins, Underworld and Klute. I'll be back tomorrow from 2 - 4pm then most likely making a return to the Stew series, Friday 5 - 7 am 💚
The High Court ruled against the Ministry of Social Development in a case of wrongful debt recovery.
The MSD was asking a solo mother of two to repay more than a $100,000 of perceived benefit, after finding out the mom had contracted loans and used a credit card.
The High Court's jugement, which should have lasting effects, reminded the MSD that loans, which constitute debt, cannot be classified as income.
Our producer Lisa Boudet speaks with barrister Catriona MacLennan about the implications of this ruling and the current mind frame of the MSD.
