Great news! Toby Manhire managed to find funding for a second series of the excellent NZ political history podcast, #Juggernaut;

https://thespinoff.co.nz/podcasts/juggernaut

This series covers the 4th National government, led by Jim Bolger. But famous more for Ruth Richardson's ruthless 1991 budget. Known to old lefties like me as Ruthenasia.

Without this part of the story, it's easy to blame our slide into extreme inequality and mass impoverishment on Labour and Rogernomics alone. But it was a bipartisan affair.
