COVER STORY
Lake of shame
In this week’s issue, Karl du Fresne reports on Lake Horowhenua – a supposed symbol of co-operation between the races is proving anything but, instead provoking acts of violence, polarising politicians and horrifying environmentalists; Ruth Laugesen talks with electronic millionaire Dick Smith on his newfound role as a critic of “extreme” capitalism and a crusader for Australian farmers. And he doesn’t like our beetroot; and we reveal the winning photo essay of the Listener Photo Essay Competition by Billie Win, who documented a friend going through the first stages of a female-to-male gender reassignment.
