There's always two sides of the story and we embrace that. Today we'll be hitting an issue from both sides of the argument.

Today we're talking Government support for students.

Cold flats and two minute noodles have become synonymous with the uni experience. An enquiry into student wellbeing recently recommended fees free courses and a universal student allowance.

Join us as we talk to NZ Initiative Fellow and former Associate, Dean Michael Johnston - and President of New Zealand’s Union of Students’ Association, Andrew Lessells.
