14-year-old Henry Blakeman sits down with journalist Paddy Gower to discuss his career in New Zealand media, political neutrality and what he believes makes a good journalist.
They also cover his encounters with Donald Trump, why Winston Peters is the hardest New Zealand politician he has interviewed, why Paddy does not vote while working as a political journalist, the closure of Newshub and the issues affecting young people that he believes deserve more media attention. Towards the end, Paddy turns the interview around and asks Henry what he has learned from speaking with New Zealand's political leaders throughout Season 1.
2 Young To Vote is a filmed interview series in which Henry speaks with New Zealand's political leaders, influential voices and the people shaping a future he is not yet old enough to vote on.
