#BHN Suzanne Manning on the Scottish Courts ruling | Luxon evokes the Pope | Winston's Penis Police

The National President of the Dr Suzanne Manning joins us tonight to talk about the ruling from the Scottish Supreme Court on the definition of woman in UK equality legislation and the apparent desire for Winston Peters to put into law in NZ the same outcome.The Pope passed away over the weekend which has sent 1.4 billion Catholics into mourning and one Prime Minister to suggest that the Pope was an incredible example to the world for his "huge care for people who were vulnerable" and at no point could he see any kind of irony in what he was saying.Winston Peters has again started the campaign to get his "Penis Police" into every public toilet in NZ. We'll have a look at the introduction of NZ First's new legislation and see if there is anything, other than culture wars and headline grabbing, that can come from this desired legislation.=================================Come support the work we're doing by becoming a Patron of ⁠⁠#BHN⁠⁠ www.patreon.com/BigHairyNews⁠=================================Merch available at www.BHNShop.nz Like us on Facebookwww.facebook.com/BigHairyNews Follow us on Twitter.@patbrittenden @Chewie_NZFollow us on BlueskyPat @patbrittenden.bsky.socialChewie @chewienz.bsky.socialEmily @iamprettyawesome.bsky.socialMagenta @xkaosmagex.bsky.social
