If you are interested in the Trans Pacific Partnership trade negotiations, have a listen to ISDS: The devil in the trade deal (13 Sept 2014) available from: http:itun.es/nz/c6Uxe.c
On 8 November 2014 Kiwis will kickstart the global day
of action against the TPP/TPPA. TPPA poses an enormous threat to NZ's
ability to regulate for itself, and gives foreign investors and
multinationals new rights to control our laws. This could mean losing
the ability to regulate our workplaces, our environment, our health and
education systems and much more.
