Leighton Smith interviews Don Brash, July 29, 2026

Listen here

This 2026 election has much of the constituency concerned about a result that could lead to the end of the country as we know it.

Don Brash, arguably the best Reserve Bank Governor we’ve known, voices his thoughts on the matters he believes are most important.

He talks about our appallingly slow productivity growth - and on the country’s GDP per capita.

He also reflects on house prices, the long term outlook for government debt, foreign policy and race relations.

And he rates the present government on its effectiveness.
