The RV for my house in 2 00:00:03,480 --> 00:00:07,080 Speaker 1: Wellington went down by twenty five percent of the same period. Boohoo, Auckland, 3 00:00:07,320 --> 00:00:09,800 Speaker 1: you only went down nine percent. How will you survive? Look, 4 00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:12,959 Speaker 1: it's very different for Auckland, though, isn't it. You know 5 00:00:13,039 --> 00:00:15,560 Speaker 1: that nine percent for Auckland is like nine hundred percent 6 00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:19,799 Speaker 1: for everybody else. Eighteen past five now, Greta Tunberg's ship 7 00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:22,600 Speaker 1: has been seized by the Israeli military. Greta claims she's 8 00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:25,840 Speaker 1: been kidnapped. Israel says the activists on board the ship 9 00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:27,720 Speaker 1: will be returned to their home countries. In the aid 10 00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:30,319 Speaker 1: on the ship will be transported to Gaza. Green's co 11 00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:34,160 Speaker 1: leader Madima Davidson is with me Hi Madama Kilda Heather, 12 00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:36,960 Speaker 1: are you calling on Israel to release her? 13 00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:40,239 Speaker 2: We want to see fake passage of all of the 14 00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:44,440 Speaker 2: civilians on board the boat to meddlinge Heather. We also 15 00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:48,240 Speaker 2: want to see Israel stop shooting at innocent people lining 16 00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:51,479 Speaker 2: up for a kai and we're calling on the government 17 00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:54,920 Speaker 2: to sanction Israel for its violent occupation of Palestine. 18 00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:57,640 Speaker 1: Do you think it is actually helpful for the likes 19 00:00:57,680 --> 00:00:59,880 Speaker 1: of Greta Tunberg to turn up there because I mean, 20 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:02,760 Speaker 1: I would say everybody has got their hands full trying 21 00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:05,399 Speaker 1: to deal with a pretty awful situation. Surely she's just 22 00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:06,400 Speaker 1: going to make matters worse. 23 00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:12,040 Speaker 2: What could make matters worse? When Israel themselves have been 24 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 2: deciding to continue the violence, the horror, the bombardment, the 25 00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 2: shooting people lining up for a k Greta didn't cause that, 26 00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:25,360 Speaker 2: No other civilian has caused that. It's we need to 27 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:28,880 Speaker 2: do everything we can here to bring attention and horror 28 00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:33,319 Speaker 2: to what is happening, and people are looking for anything 29 00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:36,680 Speaker 2: to do. Similarly, we need to call out all governments 30 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:39,959 Speaker 2: to step up and do everything they possibly can to 31 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:41,040 Speaker 2: call this out. 32 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 1: Hey, what's the problem with the NBR rich list? 33 00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:49,120 Speaker 2: Ah, Like, it's just another example and some evidence of 34 00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:51,920 Speaker 2: you know, how flawed our tax system is when we've 35 00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:55,320 Speaker 2: got that rich list while we've got children still living 36 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:58,480 Speaker 2: in poverty. Those are political decisions and the government could 37 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 2: actually end poverty and redistribute to wells better. But Heather, 38 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 2: I'm really keen to keep talking about what has happened 39 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:09,000 Speaker 2: and what is happening to the people in Gaza as well. 40 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 1: Okay, Madima, thank you, I appreciate it.
