Geoffrey Miller: Geopolitical Analyst on the 501 deportation meeting between Christopher Luxon and Anthony Albanese

Early Edition with Ryan Bridge - A podcast by Newstalk ZB

501s will be the hot button topic in Christopher Luxon's meeting in Canberra today with the Australian Prime Minister.  Anthony Albanese's government has pulled a recent u-turn on the common-sense approach he'd agreed to with former Prime Minister Jacinda Arden in 2022.   Australia is no longer considering a person's ties to the country before deporting them, making the safety of Australians the top priority.  Geopolitical analyst Geoffrey Miller told Ryan Bridge Luxon's comments in Sydney yesterday hinted he wasn't expecting to make much headway.   He says Luxon had said they would agree to disagree on the issue - but he'd continue to voice New Zealand's displeasure.   LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
