Open-plan learning was sold as innovative, but it was a con – prioritising vibes over results. The Government’s decision to ditch it is a rare win for commonsense.

This Taxpayers’ Union-Curia poll is a snapshot of a nation at a crossroads. Kiwis are sending a clear message: fix the economy, cut the waste and stop preaching. The question is whether the politicians – especially Luxon and Seymour – will listen.
New Zealanders deserve better than this. We’re sick of politicians or ex-politicians that think they’re above the law, who hide behind their status or their identity when the heat’s on. Allan and Ghahraman aren’t victims – they’re perpetrators of their own downfall.
To the unions, academics and activists losing their minds over this bill: take a deep breath and read the damn thing. You might learn something. And to David Seymour: keep poking the bear.
