Daybreak - 23 February 2026

In this episode of Daybreak - more countries wanting to hold Big Tech to account over their social media targeting of children; politicians with "pride"; UK clinical trial into puberty blockers on hold; nearly 40% of NZers think Treaty of Waitangi has too much influence on government decisions; huge study finds link between cannabis use in teens and psychosis later; the danger of euthanasia being based on a prognosis which could be wrong; Parliament wimps off X; the voice of a mountain expresses concerns - what about the voices of unborn children; the 'cost of living crisis' narrative is strong in the media but is it used accurately; CNN is freaking out over 'Christian nationalism'; and the new political party in the UK is unequivocal about biology and there being only two sexes - that will win votes!
