The Hard Stuff With Nigel Latta - The New New Zealand

Psychologist Nigel Latta returns in this straight-talking series. In this episode he looks at immigration, a subject close to home for many Kiwis, since a quarter of us were born overseas. Latta chats to a number of experts who clear up common misconceptions about those who decide to make Aotearoa home. Immigrants tell him about lives now lived in New Zealand; how they found a job, and the country's work/life balance and quality of life. Latta also gets a startling surprise in the office of immigration consultant Iain Macleod, after finding out he may not have made the cut to be a Kiwi if he had been born elsewhere.

Can a small country sustain large numbers of people coming in?

– Nigel wonders if Aotearoa is big enough for everyone, at the start of this episode
