This week in Russia, if you're not 13 00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:37,960 Speaker 2: aware of it, in the city of Kazan, the group 14 00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:40,320 Speaker 2: is meeting, or a group is meeting. They're known as Bricks. 15 00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:44,839 Speaker 2: It started out Bricks Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa, 16 00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:48,880 Speaker 2: but they have since added Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran and the UAE, 17 00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:51,840 Speaker 2: so they're growing and ahead of the meeting, Vladimir Putin 18 00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:54,760 Speaker 2: announced that it is this group that will be driving 19 00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:57,600 Speaker 2: global economic growth, not the rest of the world i e. 20 00:00:57,760 --> 00:00:58,040 Speaker 1: US. 21 00:00:58,240 --> 00:00:59,520 Speaker 2: And when you look at the rest of the world, 22 00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:02,640 Speaker 2: the Europeans, who whether you look at them individually or collectively, 23 00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:05,120 Speaker 2: barely scrape above zero percent in terms of growth at 24 00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:07,240 Speaker 2: the moment. All the Americans much better off than most, 25 00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:09,520 Speaker 2: of course, but still not in the league of the Chinese. 26 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:12,040 Speaker 2: And yes you can argue the Chinese aren't what they were, 27 00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:15,120 Speaker 2: but at about five percent, they outperformed the bulk of 28 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:18,720 Speaker 2: the planet's other countries. Ethiopia has been growing at over 29 00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:21,920 Speaker 2: seven percent, and India, of course in many respects as 30 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:24,199 Speaker 2: the growth powerhouse of the world. And at the same time, 31 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,600 Speaker 2: just this week, the IMF has worn the world about 32 00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 2: a lack of growth because of the increasing amount of debt. 33 00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:32,560 Speaker 2: There would be more growth if the money we were 34 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:35,600 Speaker 2: spending on interest payments was put into facilities and services 35 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 2: and infrastructure. And then you get to the fracturing of 36 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:41,040 Speaker 2: the world generally. They also pointed out that the IMF 37 00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:44,040 Speaker 2: that there was an increasing amount of looking inwards. The 38 00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:46,839 Speaker 2: days of the free and open trade flowing with anyone 39 00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:50,280 Speaker 2: and everyone was getting harder and harder, and not to 40 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:53,000 Speaker 2: mention more and more rare we currently have a scrap 41 00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:55,560 Speaker 2: of coursism. I'm sure you're well aware with Canada over Derry, 42 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 2: and that's a scrap with a country we like and 43 00:01:57,960 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 2: get on with, and we did a free trade deal 44 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,640 Speaker 2: with and it's a pick aside sort of game these days. 45 00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 2: But the truth is Putin's actually right. I mean, say 46 00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:07,240 Speaker 2: whatever you want about them or Russia or the war, 47 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:10,480 Speaker 2: the cold, hard truth is trade and business continues. In fact, 48 00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 2: war is often very good for business. India seem more 49 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:16,520 Speaker 2: than happy to buy discounted oil from Russia. India does 50 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:20,400 Speaker 2: business with whoever has the best deal. Bricks might once 51 00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:23,040 Speaker 2: have been seen as the old balls club, the outsiders club, 52 00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 2: the despots club, the desperadoes club, forced together by global 53 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:29,360 Speaker 2: shame and the shunning of the so called mainstream countries. 54 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:31,400 Speaker 2: And yet look at them now, Look at their numbers, 55 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:34,240 Speaker 2: look at their prospects, look at the fact that Putin 56 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:34,959 Speaker 2: is right. 57 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:40,120 Speaker 1: Why news of the World in ninety second. 58 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 2: Noveland, Turkey of a night, We've got a major defense 59 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:43,359 Speaker 2: company has been hit by terrorists. 60 00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 3: We know that there are fifteen thousand people working in 61 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 3: tool shifts, and the timing coincides with each shift change 62 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 3: of the personnel of the campus not sure. 63 00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:59,040 Speaker 4: Who Both the two people, the two gunmen that were 64 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:02,280 Speaker 4: seeing seem to have been killed. The problem is that 65 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:04,120 Speaker 4: is you can't then interrogate them and find out who 66 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:07,360 Speaker 4: sent them. So the key thing here is who quote Bono, 67 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 4: who benefits from this. 68 00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:11,600 Speaker 2: To the US race where the Trump camping complaining officially 69 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 2: about the UK Labor Party and volunteers helping out the Dems, 70 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:17,239 Speaker 2: and how that adds up to interference. 71 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 1: With two weeks before an election. 72 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,800 Speaker 2: Any story like this that is a distraction from the 73 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:25,360 Speaker 2: substance of issues being debated from the candidates actually plays 74 00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:28,920 Speaker 2: to Donald Trump's benefit and against Kamaala Harris also troubling 75 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:31,519 Speaker 2: the Dams as Joe who got let out yesterday to 76 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 2: say stuff they may regret. 77 00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 5: This sounds bizarre. It sounds like I said this five 78 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 5: years ago. 79 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 6: You'd locked me up. 80 00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 7: We gottack him up, political acum, lock him out. 81 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:49,840 Speaker 2: That's what we have to do, which then leads to 82 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:52,080 Speaker 2: can Lean again trying to defend him while pretending she 83 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 2: hasn't been hanging out with him for years. 84 00:03:53,840 --> 00:04:06,200 Speaker 6: Joe Biden is an extremely accomplished, experienced and capable in 85 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 6: every way that anyone would want for their president. 86 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:12,040 Speaker 2: Fantastically convincing, isn't she?

Finally, the Attorney baseball that broke the 95 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:36,400 Speaker 2: fifty to fifty record has been sold fifty as none 96 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:39,279 Speaker 2: run for the season fiftieth stolen base No one had 97 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 2: ever done it until shahe Hair Daney of the Los 98 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,360 Speaker 2: Angeles Dodgers did it the other day.

If you place to shatter the previous record, 101 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:53,480 Speaker 2: that is news of the world in madn The record, 102 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:55,200 Speaker 2: by the way, the previous record was Mark McGuire and 103 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 2: I couldn't work out this morning because it didn't have 104 00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 2: time to look up. The previous ball was four point six, 105 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 2: so seven point whatever it was versus four point six 106 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 2: was Mark McGuire. The steroids guy. It was Arry Bonds 107 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 2: and Martin. Wow, you can't say that Barry Bonds. 108 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 9: Wasn't the steroids guy. 109 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:12,719 Speaker 2: I think I think Mark McGuire was involved in a 110 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 2: bit of that. Anyway, all was expensive. Twelve past six. 111 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 1: The Mike Hosking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered 112 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:24,279 Speaker 1: by News Talks. 113 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:26,880 Speaker 2: I'd be you know how Boeing are having trouble making 114 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:29,839 Speaker 2: planes at the moment. They do have a division that 115 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,240 Speaker 2: makes satellites, and they make a thing called the IS 116 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:36,640 Speaker 2: thirty three E. Unfortunately they've fallen apart overnight as well, 117 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 2: total loss of communications with Intel Sat designed and built 118 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,120 Speaker 2: by Boeing broken up in orbit. And if you've got 119 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,880 Speaker 2: an Intel SAT device, then if you're in Europe, Africa, 120 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:47,840 Speaker 2: in the Asia Pacific region, things haven't been going well 121 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:52,400 Speaker 2: for you overnight. So planes, satellites, things, you know. Fifteen 122 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 2: past six, speaking of which are different funds management, Greg 123 00:05:56,800 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 2: Morning more Coca cola. We I've read that report that 124 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 2: it seemed flat. 125 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 10: Yeah, that's right, that's right. 126 00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 11: So the demand slugglishipit prices up. There was the story. 127 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,680 Speaker 11: So revenues lee point nine to five billion for the quarter. 128 00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:11,720 Speaker 11: That's about the same as last year. Earnings dipped two 129 00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:15,039 Speaker 11: point eight five billion volumes down one percent, but they've 130 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:19,120 Speaker 11: actually been doing better than Pepsi. They've had product recalls, 131 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 11: so they've been picking up market share there. But yeah, 132 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:23,720 Speaker 11: pricing that was up ten percent over the quarter. 133 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 10: Interesting. 134 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:28,160 Speaker 11: Half of that comes from intense inflation places like Argentina, 135 00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 11: but a lot of it's just general price heights and 136 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:33,599 Speaker 11: customers training apps. That was quite interesting and been about 137 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 11: the outlock grow for ten percent. Expected doings to pick 138 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 11: up five to six percent. They're also reassured about this 139 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:42,599 Speaker 11: E coli outbreak of McDonald's and that's actually their biggest 140 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,920 Speaker 11: reshrunk customer, so your quarter pounders might be on hold 141 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 11: for a while. There's contaminated onions by the sounds of it. Starbucks, 142 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:52,360 Speaker 11: they also had some softness at the top line. Sales 143 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 11: down three percent, nine point one billion, same store sales 144 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 11: down seven percent. Now it's the biggest drop since COVID, 145 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 11: foot traffic down TEMC. They've got a new CEO, Mike 146 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:03,599 Speaker 11: he reckons all the problems are fixable than investing in 147 00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 11: technology to improve service produce wake times. But I suppose 148 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,600 Speaker 11: a lot of its cost of living challenges, and you 149 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:13,240 Speaker 11: know there's people shunning high priced lattes and machiados, increasing 150 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 11: competition mode also be affected. Pick in China sales here 151 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 11: down fourteen percent. Same store. Hey, and you mentioned Bowen. Yeah, 152 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 11: continuing to having some problems as well. Revenues of seventeen 153 00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 11: point eight billion, they top estimates, but they report a 154 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:28,880 Speaker 11: loss of six billion dollars, so four billion dollars worth 155 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 11: of problems. That the commercial airlines unit, so you think 156 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:35,240 Speaker 11: the seven seven seven they've had problems with, and then 157 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 11: the unit which houses the star liner that recently return 158 00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 11: from space empty. That contributed to a two billion dollar 159 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 11: loss at the defense unit as well. So Manull they 160 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:48,120 Speaker 11: talked up about a lean of future focus on cost. 161 00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:50,640 Speaker 11: Pretty ironic striking machine. It's so about to be given 162 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 11: a thirty percent plus pay rise to resolve industrial action. 163 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 11: So she has fell two percent. 164 00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:59,800 Speaker 2: Now, Tokyo Metro, how oversubscribed? 165 00:07:59,880 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 11: Was that around about fifteen times they've subscribed, So yeah, 166 00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 11: the shares went more like a bullet training she they 167 00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 11: surged forty five percent on their debut. So this is 168 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 11: Japan's largest IPO and six years since Soft Bank. So yeah, 169 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:17,120 Speaker 11: Subway uproad they carry around about six and a half 170 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 11: million passengers a day. They raised around about two point 171 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 11: three billion US dollars equivalent shares across at the top 172 00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 11: of the IPO range. Lots of demand. Just viewed as 173 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:27,920 Speaker 11: a bit of a cash cow. High dividends, stable cash flow, 174 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 11: not much risk there and also a reason why out 175 00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:32,920 Speaker 11: lot for growth. So just really the demand and the 176 00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:35,319 Speaker 11: capital strong. If you look at their population Tokyo, it's 177 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:36,960 Speaker 11: growing around about one percent. 178 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 10: So yeah, great story there. 179 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:38,760 Speaker 11: Overnight. 180 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 2: What about our agms freightways, they were interesting.

So 185 00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:51,800 Speaker 11: you look at freightways, I've been doing quite well just 186 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:54,599 Speaker 11: despite a soft economy, particularly in Australia. They've got a 187 00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 11: big footprint. Look at New zeald now and New Zealand 188 00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:59,440 Speaker 11: Curry couriers which competes to Earth and the nz Post 189 00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:02,800 Speaker 11: that's doing the government said ndir postss to be more 190 00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:05,200 Speaker 11: competitive in it like a real company, So that's been good. 191 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:07,520 Speaker 11: They're not seeing any green shoots yet in the economy. 192 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 11: Freightways but they are doing well on the bigger higher 193 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:13,040 Speaker 11: prices market.

Seems a bit of a 196 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 11: recurring theme here, Mike. But Australia we get thirty five 197 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 11: percent of its revenues, continues to do better than New Zealand. 198 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:25,560 Speaker 11: And then we have a look at Fletcher Building.

Of all 338 00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:34,440 Speaker 2: the things that you guys deal with on the land 339 00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 2: at the moment, from the cost of living crisis to 340 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:38,880 Speaker 2: the cost of fertilizer, are shipping and banking and all 341 00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 2: that sort of stuff, where does this forest thing sit? 342 00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 15: Well, look, it's usually concerning as he said, twenty one 343 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:48,200 Speaker 15: thousand hectaies in the last couple of years, but two 344 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:52,400 Speaker 15: hundred and sixty one thousand hectais since twenty seventeen, and 345 00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:55,640 Speaker 15: that whole farm that has been bought with the intentional 346 00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 15: or planted already into forestry. And I guess for us 347 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:02,040 Speaker 15: to concern, we know that for every hundred thousand hectes 348 00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:04,679 Speaker 15: that we lose, that's around a million sheep that are 349 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:06,440 Speaker 15: lost out of the system. 350 00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:08,600 Speaker 2: Okay, So I've got my land, I've got three hundred 351 00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:11,200 Speaker 2: and fifty hectares. I put it onto the market. Somebody 352 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:13,120 Speaker 2: comes along and goes, I'll give you what you want 353 00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:15,960 Speaker 2: for it. What do I do, knowing it's going to 354 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:17,560 Speaker 2: go into forestry? What do you want me to do? 355 00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 7: Yeah? 356 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 15: Look, and that is absolutely the challenge. And I think 357 00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:26,240 Speaker 15: what's driving this. Actually it's not forestry as such. It's 358 00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:29,000 Speaker 15: actually those at the ATA settings that are driving the 359 00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:32,399 Speaker 15: carbon farming. So we just need some sensible limits. You know, 360 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:34,960 Speaker 15: we're not anti trees. Were Actually there is absolutely a 361 00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:37,960 Speaker 15: place for trees and forestry, and you know the best 362 00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:40,959 Speaker 15: place for trees is to incorporate them within our farming system. 363 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:43,320 Speaker 15: So it's just about making sure we get the policy 364 00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:43,960 Speaker 15: settings right. 365 00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:47,960 Speaker 2: Mcclay's in charge, but he says they're still working through it. 366 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:50,480 Speaker 2: Do you believe they're working through it in a way 367 00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 2: that will conclude in a way that makes you happy 368 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:53,560 Speaker 2: or you just don't know. 369 00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:58,280 Speaker 15: Well, their pre election manifesto did set out what was 370 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:00,919 Speaker 15: a pretty sensible platform, and that was put moratorium on 371 00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:04,480 Speaker 15: whole farm conversions on those land classes one to five, 372 00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:07,080 Speaker 15: which is the really productive land. And they're just putting 373 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:09,520 Speaker 15: some restrictions on land class six, which is where a 374 00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:11,440 Speaker 15: lot of your hell country sheet and beef, you know, 375 00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:12,840 Speaker 15: a lot of your good breeding country. 376 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:15,159 Speaker 2: It was always going to come to this though, when 377 00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:17,560 Speaker 2: you talk about the Climate Commission. If you can simply 378 00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:21,040 Speaker 2: plant a tree to make your contribution to climate, you're 379 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:24,120 Speaker 2: going to, aren't you, Because it's easy as well. 380 00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:25,920 Speaker 15: It is the easy option, but I guess the question 381 00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:29,240 Speaker 15: is it the best option for New Zealand. Forestry absolutely 382 00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 15: has a place, but what we want is mosaic landscapes. 383 00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:35,200 Speaker 15: We don't want a blanket landscape of pine trees. 384 00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:35,639 Speaker 10: No, we do not. 385 00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:37,359 Speaker 2: Do you have any indication when the government are going 386 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:40,159 Speaker 2: to make some sort of decision on this, Look. 387 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:43,320 Speaker 15: They have indicated before Christmas, so we're hopeful that will 388 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:43,960 Speaker 15: be well. 389 00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:47,040 Speaker 2: Christmas is close, so let's stand by for it. Kate appreciated. 390 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:49,159 Speaker 2: Kate Acklam. Who's the beef in the land? New Zealand 391 00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:52,520 Speaker 2: Chair twenty minutes away from seven task. If you follow 392 00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 2: Trump trades, this is the money market on the race 393 00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:58,119 Speaker 2: predicted has Trump a head of Harris On price fifty 394 00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:02,000 Speaker 2: eight cents against forty five. Polymarket has sixty three versus 395 00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:05,680 Speaker 2: thirty six. Probably more importantly, mind you follow the money. 396 00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:08,399 Speaker 2: It's always the thing, isn't it. Nate Silba, who is 397 00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:11,080 Speaker 2: the fame? Nate Silber runs five thirty eight. His gut, 398 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:13,119 Speaker 2: he says, this morning, his gut tells him Trump's in 399 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:17,040 Speaker 2: the tendency to underperform in the polls. His own modeling 400 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:20,919 Speaker 2: shows one point six percent apart. Intuition points to a 401 00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:26,000 Speaker 2: Republican victory. Harris's candidacy has become bogged down. Seventy percent 402 00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:28,440 Speaker 2: of registered voters said the country was on the wrong track, 403 00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:31,720 Speaker 2: and in general in the Western world went and it 404 00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:34,560 Speaker 2: applied here as well. When you have the majority far 405 00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 2: less the vast majority of people thinking rightly or wrongly, 406 00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:41,200 Speaker 2: that the economy isn't working well for them yet a 407 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:42,800 Speaker 2: change of power.

He's asked the leader of 430 00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:44,919 Speaker 2: the Conservative People's Party the OBP, and the incumbent chancellor, 431 00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:47,360 Speaker 2: guy called Karl to form a coalition government. And you're 432 00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:49,879 Speaker 2: going to say to me, behold on, didn't the Freedom 433 00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:51,560 Speaker 2: Party come out on top of the election. Didn't the 434 00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:53,960 Speaker 2: Freedom Party win the election? Yes they did. I'm going 435 00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:55,639 Speaker 2: to say to you twenty nine percent. But here's the 436 00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:57,520 Speaker 2: problem with people who are of the far right in 437 00:20:57,600 --> 00:20:59,680 Speaker 2: friendly with Russia. Although a lot of people in the 438 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:02,320 Speaker 2: country you vote for them, doesn't mean anyone else wants 439 00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 2: to work with them. So as a result of this, 440 00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:05,760 Speaker 2: no one wants to work with them. Therefore they can't 441 00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:08,520 Speaker 2: be part of the government. The parliament. The parliamentary election, 442 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:10,800 Speaker 2: says the president is not a race in which the 443 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:13,320 Speaker 2: party crosses the finish line first, automatically getting to form 444 00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:15,560 Speaker 2: the government. If a party wants to govern alone, it 445 00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:18,159 Speaker 2: must clear the fifty percent hurdle. It's not sufficient to 446 00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:22,760 Speaker 2: reach ten, twenty or thirty. And so that's Austria six forty. 447 00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:26,960 Speaker 16: Five International correspondence with ends in eye insurance, peace of 448 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:28,240 Speaker 16: mind for New Zealand business. 449 00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 2: Never join a Kenna, Good morning to you, good money. 450 00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:33,200 Speaker 2: May and Maloney did win the election, and she's per 451 00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:35,159 Speaker 2: turned out. I think I'm fair to say to be 452 00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 2: pretty popular, hasn't she. 453 00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:40,120 Speaker 17: It's pretty amazing actually to see a prime minister last 454 00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:41,520 Speaker 17: two years in this country. 455 00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:42,800 Speaker 2: Yeah. 456 00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:43,560 Speaker 11: But she has. 457 00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:46,600 Speaker 17: Celebrated that anniversary. She's released a video telling everyone how 458 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:49,760 Speaker 17: wonderful she is and how successful she's been. She's put 459 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:53,240 Speaker 17: Italy back on the international stage. She says she's relaunched 460 00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:58,359 Speaker 17: economic growth and employment, improved families, purchasing powers, save the 461 00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:01,560 Speaker 17: health system. I'm not sure everyone agrees with that. In fact, 462 00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:06,080 Speaker 17: a Sky Italy poll today said sixty percent of those 463 00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:09,200 Speaker 17: surveyed were not convinced about the government's economic measures. 464 00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:12,280 Speaker 2: She held an election this afternoon, would she win. 465 00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:16,480 Speaker 17: I think she would. Her personal popularity is still at 466 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:20,040 Speaker 17: thirty four percent the opposition I think is failing to 467 00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 17: make any sort of inroads. Most people think she's done 468 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:28,160 Speaker 17: quite well on the international stage and defended Italy's interests 469 00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 17: the economy mixed bag. 470 00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:34,280 Speaker 2: I'd say, okay, and then, while speaking international, the Albanian thing, 471 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 2: where are we at with that and what are they 472 00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:35,879 Speaker 2: going to do? 473 00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 18: Well? 474 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:41,080 Speaker 17: This was actually very harmful, in fact, quite embarrassing for 475 00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:45,880 Speaker 17: Georgia Maloney. Last week, a Rome court said ruled that 476 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 17: Italy's plans to start moving illegal migrants and asylum seekers 477 00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:55,800 Speaker 17: to two migrant centers constructed in Albania was unacceptable. The 478 00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:59,920 Speaker 17: government has overridden that with a decree saying that they're 479 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:03,879 Speaker 17: there are nineteen countries that are safe for migrants to 480 00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:07,560 Speaker 17: be repatriated. And Maloney's going to press on through with 481 00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:10,480 Speaker 17: plans to send these asylum seekers to Albania. 482 00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:12,960 Speaker 2: And so can she do that given the courts or not? 483 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:17,720 Speaker 17: It looks like she can unless it goes to a 484 00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:21,919 Speaker 17: High court appeal of some kind, or it goes to 485 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:24,199 Speaker 17: the European Court of Justice. 486 00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:25,720 Speaker 2: And speaking of courts, where are we at with the 487 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:26,520 Speaker 2: surrogacy thing? 488 00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:29,639 Speaker 17: Well, this is quite an interesting move. You'd think that 489 00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:32,199 Speaker 17: the government would be more concerned about the economy and 490 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:35,480 Speaker 17: some of those bread and butter issues. But the government 491 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:42,040 Speaker 17: has pressed ahead with very strong legislation extending its ban 492 00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:45,600 Speaker 17: on sarrogacy outside Italy that's been in place since two 493 00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:49,240 Speaker 17: thousand and four. Now Italians seeking sarrogacy in countries like 494 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:52,680 Speaker 17: the US or Canada so they could be gay couples 495 00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:58,560 Speaker 17: or heterosexual couples can face up to two years in 496 00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:02,600 Speaker 17: jail in Italy up to one million euros in fines. 497 00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:05,760 Speaker 17: They do not want to see surrogacy happening in this country. 498 00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:08,040 Speaker 2: I forgot to ask the other day. We won the 499 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:11,120 Speaker 2: America's Cup again just this past weekend, and Luna Rossa 500 00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:13,439 Speaker 2: didn't make it. How big a deal was Luna Rossa 501 00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:15,439 Speaker 2: at the time when they looked like they could go 502 00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:17,600 Speaker 2: through all the way to face US and the capitalies, 503 00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:19,199 Speaker 2: that sort of faded into obscurity. 504 00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:24,000 Speaker 17: Look, I have to say it didn't really capture national attention, 505 00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:26,879 Speaker 17: and I think it might have if they'd gone all 506 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:30,840 Speaker 17: the way. But unlike New Zealand or Australia or even 507 00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:34,000 Speaker 17: in the US, where it did make waves when the 508 00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:36,480 Speaker 17: national teams, when it does make waves when the national 509 00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:39,320 Speaker 17: teams are doing well. I think here the focus is 510 00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:41,560 Speaker 17: still football, football, football. 511 00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:43,680 Speaker 2: Okay, good catch up next week. Joe, appreciate you so much. 512 00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:46,840 Speaker 2: Joe mckinner out Italy the Thursday morning for US eleven 513 00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:49,520 Speaker 2: away from seven called the. 514 00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:53,240 Speaker 1: Mike Costing Breakfast with the range Roper the La news talks. 515 00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:55,240 Speaker 2: He'd been You could have read on the economy yesterday 516 00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:57,720 Speaker 2: in New Zealand. Economy substantial and certainly they're not a 517 00:24:57,720 --> 00:24:59,880 Speaker 2: one hundred percent lockdown on it. But here's where they think, 518 00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:02,680 Speaker 2: arbo Bank, this is speaking of the rural sector. Rabobank, 519 00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:04,320 Speaker 2: I think we're going to have a cash rate at 520 00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:07,919 Speaker 2: three point twenty five percent. That's what they see is 521 00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:10,200 Speaker 2: what they call a neutral position. So they see another 522 00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 2: fifty coming next month, and next month there's only days away. 523 00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:16,479 Speaker 2: That'll take us down to four point two five. Speed 524 00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:19,360 Speaker 2: of transmission of monetary policy is going to be faster 525 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:22,199 Speaker 2: than it was at the start of the tightening cycle. 526 00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:25,879 Speaker 2: There's an unusually large share their words, not mine, of 527 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:30,280 Speaker 2: mortgages currently in that variable slash short term fixed rate. 528 00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:31,600 Speaker 2: In other words, a lot of people are going to 529 00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:34,680 Speaker 2: benefit from lower interest rates more quickly. So the full 530 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:36,640 Speaker 2: effect of those rate cuts are going to fly through. 531 00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:39,439 Speaker 2: There's some argument, they say, for the seventy five percent 532 00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:42,639 Speaker 2: that Greg has been arguing very strongly for. So maybe 533 00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:45,640 Speaker 2: seventy five percent. I doubt it, but there's a call 534 00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:47,840 Speaker 2: for it, and there's certainly an argument for it. We 535 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:51,360 Speaker 2: see the pace of cuts slowing from February next year, 536 00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:55,480 Speaker 2: with twenty five points delivered at consecutive meetings in feb April, 537 00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:58,639 Speaker 2: May and July. Middle of next year, Ye're suddenly finding 538 00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:01,199 Speaker 2: yourself at three point two five sent shouldy mortgages in 539 00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:07,240 Speaker 2: the force, he said optimistically. Nikola Willis is giving a 540 00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:10,800 Speaker 2: speech today in which she will explain outcome contracts to 541 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:14,240 Speaker 2: the public service. She doesn't need to explain that to 542 00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:16,080 Speaker 2: the rest of us, because of course that's generally how 543 00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:18,720 Speaker 2: contracts are supposed to work, but not in the public service. Apparently, 544 00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:21,600 Speaker 2: in the public service, contracts work on outputs. So in 545 00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:23,920 Speaker 2: other words, if you output something, if you just do 546 00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:26,840 Speaker 2: something that apparently is enough. What then happens to the 547 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:29,320 Speaker 2: money in the contract apparently is not overly important. So 548 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:34,200 Speaker 2: she's talking about outcome contracts. They will need to steal 549 00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:38,159 Speaker 2: themselves to acts initiatives that are no longer working for 550 00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:43,600 Speaker 2: delivering value. She is also the Social Investment Minister. Users 551 00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:46,480 Speaker 2: and providers of social services. This is where cost is going. 552 00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:49,840 Speaker 2: He's going to be your social services are a common 553 00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:53,840 Speaker 2: complaint is that there's multiple overlapping contracts that they have 554 00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:57,120 Speaker 2: with different agencies to do the same thing. Who do 555 00:26:57,200 --> 00:26:59,240 Speaker 2: not seem to be talking to each other, so no 556 00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:02,040 Speaker 2: one talks to each other. They don't care what happens 557 00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:04,520 Speaker 2: to the outcome because they don't do outcomes. They only 558 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:07,480 Speaker 2: do outputs. And you wonder why we are where we are. 559 00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:10,600 Speaker 2: Seems an extraordinary thing that in twenty twenty four a 560 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 2: finance minister, in the circumstances in which we find ourselves, 561 00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:17,159 Speaker 2: should have to make such a speech. But there go 562 00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:19,720 Speaker 2: five away from seven, all. 563 00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:23,320 Speaker 1: The ins and the outs. It's the fears with business. 564 00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:26,359 Speaker 1: Fiber take your business productivity to the next level. 565 00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:28,760 Speaker 2: Which is somewhat ironic because when we had a government 566 00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:30,639 Speaker 2: that actually knew what they were doing, one of the 567 00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:32,919 Speaker 2: ideas they came up with was a thing called fiber. 568 00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:37,200 Speaker 2: This is twenty eleven. In twenty eleven we announced ultra 569 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:41,320 Speaker 2: fast broadband and we were went whoo. It took ten years, 570 00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:43,560 Speaker 2: cost us one point seventy nine billion to get it 571 00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:45,919 Speaker 2: up and running. Overall, five point five billion has been 572 00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:48,280 Speaker 2: spent on the fiber network to date. So he comes 573 00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:50,480 Speaker 2: to return, this is the fresh material this morning. Before 574 00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:53,160 Speaker 2: the rollout, there were twelve percent of us who had 575 00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:55,280 Speaker 2: access to fib and out to eighty seven percent of us. 576 00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:58,600 Speaker 2: That's over one point eight million connections. There were ten 577 00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:01,159 Speaker 2: thousand fiber customers to day, this one point four million. 578 00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:05,159 Speaker 2: Now what's it done for productivity? Those outputs, those outcomes. 579 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:08,520 Speaker 2: The report from Deloyd shows that the infrastructure has already 580 00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:12,000 Speaker 2: delivered thirty one billion dollars of economic benefit and productivity gains. 581 00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:14,800 Speaker 2: It grew the economy by eight point eight billion in 582 00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:17,359 Speaker 2: twenty twenty three alone. There's also going to be a 583 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:20,040 Speaker 2: massive productivity uplift over the next decade. The report says 584 00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:22,840 Speaker 2: it could add a cumulative one hundred and sixty three 585 00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:27,080 Speaker 2: billion dollars to our GDP by twenty thirty three. And 586 00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:29,639 Speaker 2: that's just from tapping into the only sixteen percent of 587 00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:32,199 Speaker 2: the productivity benefits the fiber network can in fact offer us. 588 00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:34,040 Speaker 2: So you're going back to a bloke called Stephen Joyce. 589 00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:35,919 Speaker 2: And if you read Stephen Joyce, he was the man 590 00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:38,160 Speaker 2: who was rolling out the fiber and if you read 591 00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:41,120 Speaker 2: Stephen Joyce's book, he seems to credit Marris Williamson. Stephen 592 00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 2: Joyce was the Minister of Communications and Information Technology, but 593 00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:48,320 Speaker 2: he credits Morris Williamson as the man is said to 594 00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:50,360 Speaker 2: tell you what's Stephen, have a look at this father 595 00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 2: thing and you can probably do some good for the country. 596 00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:55,400 Speaker 2: So that's how you improve productivity, which brings us back 597 00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:55,840 Speaker 2: to the banks. 598 00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 10: Yesterday. 599 00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:58,800 Speaker 2: I'm increasingly a fan of Antonia Watson of the A 600 00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 2: and Z. I felt sort not sorry, that's the wrong word, 601 00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:03,240 Speaker 2: but she had a hard day in front of a 602 00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:06,360 Speaker 2: select committee. The government's made up their mind on banks 603 00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 2: in this country, and I think in the fullness of 604 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:10,480 Speaker 2: I think in totality, I'll probably sided with the government. 605 00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:12,840 Speaker 2: To be fair, banks have got a lot to answer 606 00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:14,360 Speaker 2: for in the way they behave in this country and 607 00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:16,640 Speaker 2: the profits, etc. But she fronted up. They're all going 608 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:18,280 Speaker 2: to have to front up. She was first cab off 609 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:21,800 Speaker 2: the rank. The return on equity is thirteen point one percent. 610 00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:25,280 Speaker 2: She says that's reasonable, fair and reasonable. There is much 611 00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:27,400 Speaker 2: debate around that. There is also much debate about how 612 00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:29,360 Speaker 2: the banks deal with the rural community in this country. 613 00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:31,600 Speaker 2: The government has decided banks need a good old ry 614 00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:34,000 Speaker 2: cup and kick up that. You know Watt's so she 615 00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:36,479 Speaker 2: defended her corner and good honor. She was the one 616 00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:38,600 Speaker 2: who brought up the capital gains tax. They raised that 617 00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:40,920 Speaker 2: with her yesterday. There's more where that came from. But 618 00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:42,920 Speaker 2: it's got a fate to complee feel about it. The 619 00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:44,360 Speaker 2: government's made up their mind. They're going to do what 620 00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:46,760 Speaker 2: they're going to do now eric Is stanf But as 621 00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:48,840 Speaker 2: it turns out, lucky we got her on the program 622 00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:51,320 Speaker 2: because there's a bunch of stuff we need to cover off. 623 00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:55,560 Speaker 1: The breakfast show You can trust the mic Hosking Breakfast 624 00:29:55,760 --> 00:30:00,240 Speaker 1: with our Veda Retirement Communities, Life Your Way News TOG said, it's. 625 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:01,960 Speaker 2: Only seven past seven. So the Order to General has 626 00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:05,560 Speaker 2: been looking into our education systems, specifically inequality, basically why 627 00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:07,560 Speaker 2: some kids do well at school and others don't. The 628 00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:10,400 Speaker 2: educational gaps between rich and poor students are among the 629 00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:13,440 Speaker 2: largest in the world. Apparently the Education Minister Erica Stanford's 630 00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:15,840 Speaker 2: with us very good morning to you, Good morning make 631 00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:18,520 Speaker 2: is does the report make sense? Is there something to 632 00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:19,520 Speaker 2: act on here or not? 633 00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:20,880 Speaker 6: Well? 634 00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:24,200 Speaker 19: Absolutely, and the report is just another report telling us 635 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:26,600 Speaker 19: the same thing that we've known for a really long time. 636 00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:29,720 Speaker 19: It crystallizes lots of data points. It talks about what 637 00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:33,800 Speaker 19: Erro's been saying for ages about not having consistent nationwide 638 00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:37,640 Speaker 19: picture of student achievement and progress. It talks about a 639 00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:40,840 Speaker 19: lack of data evidence and anything that we're doing, you know, 640 00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:43,880 Speaker 19: basically says all of the things that we've known for 641 00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:45,600 Speaker 19: a long time that no one's been able to tackle. 642 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:49,480 Speaker 19: But luckily all of the recommendations basically some of my 643 00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:52,480 Speaker 19: six point action plan. So that's that's been one good 644 00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:53,040 Speaker 19: thing about it. 645 00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:54,960 Speaker 2: The reason I asked the question is he also says 646 00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:58,240 Speaker 2: the general line that our students perform well similarly to 647 00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:01,120 Speaker 2: or better than other OECD countries. Now we've been led 648 00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:02,560 Speaker 2: to believe we're useless, are we or not. 649 00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:07,080 Speaker 19: The problem that we've got in New Zealand is that 650 00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:09,480 Speaker 19: our top kids are amongst the top of the world, 651 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:13,600 Speaker 19: but we have an enormous, yawning gap between those kids 652 00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:15,520 Speaker 19: and the kids at the bottom, and it is the 653 00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:18,160 Speaker 19: worst in the world, and it's not getting any better. 654 00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:20,280 Speaker 19: The richer getting richer and the poorer getting poorer in 655 00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:24,360 Speaker 19: education in this country, and until we have a clear curriculum, 656 00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:28,240 Speaker 19: until we have consistent measures of assessing them, until we're 657 00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:30,680 Speaker 19: using evidence based teaching methods, until we're investing in our 658 00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:33,520 Speaker 19: amazing teachers, until we've got learning support sorted that the 659 00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:35,520 Speaker 19: right child's getting the right support at the right time, 660 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:38,320 Speaker 19: and until we use a much better until we use 661 00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:41,800 Speaker 19: best data better, nothing will change. But we already know 662 00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:44,720 Speaker 19: that in order to change a close that equity gap, 663 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:48,000 Speaker 19: if you do those things well, then you will make 664 00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:50,320 Speaker 19: a real difference because we've already seen it. And that's 665 00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:52,800 Speaker 19: why those six things I just mentioned form the basis 666 00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:53,560 Speaker 19: of our action plans. 667 00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:56,000 Speaker 2: Is it the kid? Is it the kid's family? Is 668 00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:58,440 Speaker 2: it the kid's school? Is it the neighborhood, is the 669 00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:01,600 Speaker 2: decile system or is it all? 670 00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:06,360 Speaker 19: I've been very clear about the drivers of inequality, and 671 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:11,040 Speaker 19: it is poverty. In this country. Your means determine your destiny. 672 00:32:11,320 --> 00:32:14,960 Speaker 19: It is almost the one single factor that is the 673 00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:17,960 Speaker 19: cause of that yawning gap, which is why when you 674 00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:20,880 Speaker 19: turn up to school, we need to cloak you in 675 00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:24,280 Speaker 19: that protective factor that is education, and that it doesn't 676 00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:26,680 Speaker 19: matter where you go, which school you go to, it's consistent, 677 00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:32,120 Speaker 19: a consistent, clear knowledge, rich year by year curriculum that's 678 00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:34,520 Speaker 19: comparable with the rest of the world. That's a teaching 679 00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:38,800 Speaker 19: practice like structured literacy, structured maths is the same everywhere 680 00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:41,920 Speaker 19: you go that we assess you everywhere you go to 681 00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:45,320 Speaker 19: measure your progress from year zero right up to year thirteen, 682 00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:47,880 Speaker 19: which we don't currently do, which we're about to do 683 00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:51,000 Speaker 19: with our twice yearly consistent testing that we're bringing in. 684 00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:54,080 Speaker 19: Those are the things that will change the dial. And 685 00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:58,280 Speaker 19: the last six years, the only thing we had, the 686 00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:01,480 Speaker 19: only thing we had to measure programs across the zero 687 00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:05,760 Speaker 19: zero to ten with national standards. Now, whether you agree 688 00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:07,320 Speaker 19: with it or not, and it had some problems, it 689 00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:09,880 Speaker 19: was the only thing. Labor took it away when they 690 00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:11,520 Speaker 19: came into office and what did they replace it with, 691 00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:17,440 Speaker 19: Mike nothing correct, absolutely nothing. And this report says we'll 692 00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:20,360 Speaker 19: need to have that clear, consistent picture across the country 693 00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:21,760 Speaker 19: so we can make changes. 694 00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:23,760 Speaker 2: While I've got you put your immigration hat on. The 695 00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:27,800 Speaker 2: overturning of the ban on partners. Why do we ban partners? 696 00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:30,239 Speaker 2: This never made any sense to me. If you want 697 00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:31,520 Speaker 2: to come to the country, sure, you want to bring 698 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:33,920 Speaker 2: your partner, don't you? Otherwise, why would you come to 699 00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:35,280 Speaker 2: the country. 700 00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:36,920 Speaker 20: Look again, it sort. 701 00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:40,080 Speaker 19: Of labour's good intentions but not really understanding the reality. 702 00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:43,040 Speaker 19: I can broadly see what they were trying to do. 703 00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:45,560 Speaker 19: They were trying to say, well, actually, we want to 704 00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:47,920 Speaker 19: make sure when you come here that you know you 705 00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:51,600 Speaker 19: are protected and that you are earning a good amount 706 00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:55,400 Speaker 19: of money. But the flip side was that people just 707 00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:57,120 Speaker 19: weren't able to do that. They were coming in the 708 00:33:57,120 --> 00:34:00,280 Speaker 19: country partners, they weren't able to earn the media and age, 709 00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:02,280 Speaker 19: they weren't able to work for a credit of work, 710 00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:04,160 Speaker 19: and so they sat here on a visit of visa. 711 00:34:04,280 --> 00:34:07,040 Speaker 19: And we know that because we had an massive number 712 00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:09,439 Speaker 19: of increased number of visit of easas over the last 713 00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:12,600 Speaker 19: couple of years, and that put enormous pressure on families 714 00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:15,120 Speaker 19: with only one income. And if you want people to 715 00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:21,120 Speaker 19: assimilate into society and make friends and take that pressure 716 00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:23,120 Speaker 19: of families, you have to allow them to work. So 717 00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:25,719 Speaker 19: bringing back open work rights for partners so they can 718 00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:28,239 Speaker 19: move between jobs work for anyone they liked was just 719 00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:28,880 Speaker 19: a no brainer. 720 00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:32,239 Speaker 2: Makes sense. Put on a third hat, your survivors in 721 00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:35,120 Speaker 2: care are you reading the newsroom stuff as in the 722 00:34:35,120 --> 00:34:38,879 Speaker 2: newsroom website stuff, Yes, they're calling it a cover up, 723 00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:39,160 Speaker 2: is it? 724 00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:44,319 Speaker 19: I think that the Royal Commission report made it very 725 00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:49,760 Speaker 19: clear that the state for many decades took great steps 726 00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:54,799 Speaker 19: to not provide documents, to obscate, to cover up, to 727 00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:57,640 Speaker 19: try and slow things down when things were taken to court. 728 00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:00,600 Speaker 19: I mean, that's clear in the report, black and white, 729 00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:03,839 Speaker 19: and there are people that have apologized for that. So 730 00:35:04,080 --> 00:35:09,000 Speaker 19: the Philoso, the General has apologized, and she's also talked 731 00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:11,200 Speaker 19: to me about the failings of Crown Law and the 732 00:35:11,239 --> 00:35:14,120 Speaker 19: failings of the state, and there will be more apologies 733 00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:14,480 Speaker 19: to come. 734 00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:17,120 Speaker 2: And yet the irony is the article suggests that she 735 00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:19,680 Speaker 2: needs to go as in the Solicitor General. Would you 736 00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:22,799 Speaker 2: argue she was merely doing her job as the representative 737 00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:25,160 Speaker 2: of the government and was doing it particularly well, despite 738 00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:27,239 Speaker 2: the fact that morally you may look at that and go, well, 739 00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:29,799 Speaker 2: the lawyer, the lawyer, Well, she. 740 00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:33,719 Speaker 19: Has she has made comments that Crown Law did not 741 00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:37,520 Speaker 19: meet expectations, they did not have a survivor focus, and 742 00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:40,280 Speaker 19: that they did not meet the expectations of the public. 743 00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:45,160 Speaker 19: But any questions about her role are for Minister Collins. 744 00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:47,239 Speaker 2: All right, appreciate time very much. Erica Stanford on a 745 00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:48,719 Speaker 2: whole bunch of stuff, So it was lucky we had 746 00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:51,799 Speaker 2: her on this morning, thirteen minutes past seven. Here's room stuff. 747 00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:53,879 Speaker 2: If you're not sure what I'm referring to, I'll come 748 00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:56,280 Speaker 2: back to it later because it's very interesting. Meantime, other matters, 749 00:35:56,320 --> 00:35:58,160 Speaker 2: good news St. John and the workers. They've settled their 750 00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:00,000 Speaker 2: pay dispute. The government's going to be injecting in up 751 00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:02,520 Speaker 2: twenty one million into the charity, brings the total funding 752 00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:05,279 Speaker 2: perannum to three point fifty seven million. We had some 753 00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:08,000 Speaker 2: industrial action that ended last week. Members voted in favor 754 00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:10,799 Speaker 2: of the latest settlement officer offer and now the first 755 00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:14,399 Speaker 2: union National Organizer for Emergency Services famer CAN is with us. Fay, 756 00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:14,960 Speaker 2: good morning to. 757 00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:16,440 Speaker 1: You, Good morning. 758 00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:18,680 Speaker 2: Well what number did you get? What did it end 759 00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:20,160 Speaker 2: up with? Pay rise wise? 760 00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:24,880 Speaker 21: So staff got most of the staff got a three 761 00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:27,960 Speaker 21: point two five percent pay increase. Dumb staff who were 762 00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:31,399 Speaker 21: paid below the living wage ended up getting just over 763 00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:33,480 Speaker 21: a nine percent increase, and that's to bump them up 764 00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:34,400 Speaker 21: to the living wage. 765 00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:36,239 Speaker 2: Does that make you happier? Are you going to be 766 00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:37,080 Speaker 2: going around again? 767 00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:42,120 Speaker 21: It's definitely a band aid, folks. I mean, any more 768 00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:44,640 Speaker 21: funding that goes into the ambulance Services. Obviously a win 769 00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:47,640 Speaker 21: in terms of the settlement we're going to be embarking 770 00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:50,440 Speaker 21: and next year. It still hasn't really fixed the problems 771 00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:54,000 Speaker 21: that we were concerned about, but certainly it's alleviated some 772 00:36:54,120 --> 00:36:56,280 Speaker 21: of the financial burden that people are finding themselves. 773 00:36:56,760 --> 00:36:58,520 Speaker 2: Correct me if I'm wrong. This seems to be in 774 00:36:58,560 --> 00:37:01,319 Speaker 2: New Zealand first lead type. They've always been keen on 775 00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:03,759 Speaker 2: funding the ambulance service in a better way than it 776 00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:06,400 Speaker 2: has been previously. Are we getting close to it basically 777 00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:09,160 Speaker 2: being a government department like the emergency services generally? 778 00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:13,120 Speaker 21: I think that we're still actually quite far away from that. 779 00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:16,279 Speaker 21: I think some of it is the fact that Saint 780 00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:19,640 Speaker 21: John wasn't saying they wanted to be fully funded until 781 00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:22,280 Speaker 21: very recently, so that obviously makes it a bit difficult 782 00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:25,759 Speaker 21: from our member's perspective. Absolutely they want it to be 783 00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:28,400 Speaker 21: government led. I think there's a lot of questions around 784 00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:31,719 Speaker 21: how it's run in general, and actually it makes it 785 00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:34,120 Speaker 21: very difficult with them being a charity to find out 786 00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:36,319 Speaker 21: that information and that's not what it should be for 787 00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:37,280 Speaker 21: an ambulance service. 788 00:37:37,360 --> 00:37:38,400 Speaker 2: Do we need to change all that? 789 00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:40,400 Speaker 15: I believe. 790 00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:43,440 Speaker 21: So we've also got Wellington Free who's also a charity 791 00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:47,840 Speaker 21: that they haven't had any announcements for their funding. But 792 00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:50,279 Speaker 21: the assumption would be that if you've put a band 793 00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:51,759 Speaker 21: aid on one, I'm surely you need to put a 794 00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:52,520 Speaker 21: band aid on the other. 795 00:37:52,680 --> 00:37:55,239 Speaker 2: Well, said Faie, appreciated famer Can, who's with the First 796 00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:59,160 Speaker 2: Union fifteen minutes past seven, tasking news room as in 797 00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:00,840 Speaker 2: the website's been doing so very good work on this 798 00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:05,160 Speaker 2: state care thing. There are calls for the Solicitor General 799 00:38:05,239 --> 00:38:08,520 Speaker 2: to stand down, to resign because of her role in 800 00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:10,600 Speaker 2: some of the court cases, her track record and how 801 00:38:10,760 --> 00:38:13,080 Speaker 2: she has made it very clear in all of their 802 00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:16,360 Speaker 2: legal technicalities and assault on children that were abused legally, 803 00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:20,240 Speaker 2: she has fought vigorously and aggressively to have us go away. 804 00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:22,880 Speaker 2: Now the problem is she's merely doing a job, and 805 00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:25,680 Speaker 2: that's what lawyers do. There was a lawyer who defended Polkinghorn. 806 00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:29,399 Speaker 2: You know what do you do? Justice must be seen 807 00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:31,520 Speaker 2: to be done. But then we've got the very good 808 00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:33,719 Speaker 2: piece also a Newsroom by Eric Crampton and the New 809 00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:36,680 Speaker 2: Zealand Initiative under the headline first Rule of Government Club 810 00:38:37,200 --> 00:38:40,000 Speaker 2: the state protects the state, So where the government goes 811 00:38:40,040 --> 00:38:42,400 Speaker 2: on this in terms of apologies and pay arts is fascinating, 812 00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:43,960 Speaker 2: But they seem to be newsrooms seem to be the 813 00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:46,000 Speaker 2: only one covering this. But if you're interested in it 814 00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:49,440 Speaker 2: because it's a big, big subject, well worth read sixteen Past. 815 00:38:50,680 --> 00:38:55,160 Speaker 1: The Mike Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered 816 00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:55,840 Speaker 1: by News. 817 00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:58,319 Speaker 2: Talks at be same response every time, Mike, I'm a 818 00:38:58,360 --> 00:38:59,839 Speaker 2: teacher and I like some of what she said about 819 00:38:59,880 --> 00:39:01,839 Speaker 2: it education, but I do worry about those loveies no 820 00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:03,880 Speaker 2: matter how they try or reach the standards. Hope that's 821 00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:05,480 Speaker 2: something in it for the Mike. It's nice to have 822 00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:08,480 Speaker 2: a minister answering questions and clearly having a good grasp 823 00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:10,879 Speaker 2: on their remit and issues they're responsible for. Mike, Erica 824 00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:14,520 Speaker 2: Stanford's the perfect education minister, principal on good intentions, firm 825 00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:16,720 Speaker 2: on execution. What a big difference from the last useless 826 00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:20,520 Speaker 2: lot which had no standards, no execution, know nothing. Thank you, Jim. 827 00:39:20,560 --> 00:39:23,120 Speaker 2: And at the opposite end of the political spectrum is 828 00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:26,239 Speaker 2: RAWI white to t who I was watching in the 829 00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:30,359 Speaker 2: house yesterday. I am increasingly aghast. The problem is and 830 00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:32,520 Speaker 2: it goes back to the Austrian example I gave you 831 00:39:32,560 --> 00:39:35,000 Speaker 2: before it's all very well, not that the Murray Party 832 00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:38,160 Speaker 2: are popular, but in Austria, so the right wings, the radicals, 833 00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:39,959 Speaker 2: they're popular, they're win the election, but no one wants 834 00:39:39,960 --> 00:39:42,440 Speaker 2: to touch them with a barge poll. I think increasingly 835 00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:44,160 Speaker 2: this is a problem for labor. Do you want to 836 00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:47,480 Speaker 2: be within one hundred miles of the Maori Party? So 837 00:39:47,600 --> 00:39:50,240 Speaker 2: the big Ray, the Mungolo mob rag in a potokey 838 00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:52,120 Speaker 2: this week. They were talking about it in the House 839 00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:54,520 Speaker 2: yesterday and Mark Mitchell was congratulating once again the police 840 00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:58,120 Speaker 2: on their operation. But this was a police operation targeting 841 00:39:58,120 --> 00:40:02,880 Speaker 2: the mongrel mob, and White TTE calls terrorism motivated by 842 00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:05,439 Speaker 2: a racist agenda. I mean, how do you get away 843 00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:08,120 Speaker 2: with that sort of stuff? Obviously Mitchell says it's ridiculous, 844 00:40:08,719 --> 00:40:13,480 Speaker 2: but a police sponsored terrorism and a continuation of the 845 00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:18,120 Speaker 2: state's predatory behavior. So you're allowed to deal with the 846 00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:19,920 Speaker 2: drugs and you see what they got from them, the 847 00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:23,759 Speaker 2: bikes and the cars and the house and the cash 848 00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:26,560 Speaker 2: and the bank account and the meth and the coke 849 00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:32,120 Speaker 2: and the dope and the guns, and they stopped two murders. 850 00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:37,040 Speaker 2: But that's racist, and that clown's in Parliament. 851 00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:43,799 Speaker 1: The mic asking breakfast full show podcast on iHeartRadio Call 852 00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:44,920 Speaker 1: it by News Talk ZEP. 853 00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:49,200 Speaker 2: Now, if you think about renovating the old kitchen, interesting 854 00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:51,200 Speaker 2: development to tell you about. This year sees a new 855 00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:54,239 Speaker 2: type of kitchen bench top into the market. It's called Imperio. 856 00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:57,600 Speaker 2: It's made of a new layered compound. Imperio offers the 857 00:40:57,600 --> 00:41:00,279 Speaker 2: texture and durability of stone without the press into the 858 00:41:00,360 --> 00:41:03,080 Speaker 2: toxic chemicals like silica that's been a massive issue in Australia. 859 00:41:03,080 --> 00:41:07,920 Speaker 2: If you follow that, it's incredibly tough. It is singeproof, scratchproof, crackproof, 860 00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:10,239 Speaker 2: moisture proof and heat resistant up to two hundred and 861 00:41:10,280 --> 00:41:13,359 Speaker 2: twenty degrees. An Imperio's offered exclusively in this country by 862 00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:15,600 Speaker 2: the O'Brien group. Now they're a family owned business and 863 00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:17,959 Speaker 2: we love those. They've been fitting out the kitchens for 864 00:41:18,080 --> 00:41:20,760 Speaker 2: well since nineteen seventy two, so they've been doing for ages. 865 00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:24,600 Speaker 2: They describe Imperio as a surface for life, an ultra 866 00:41:24,680 --> 00:41:27,320 Speaker 2: durable bench top design to stand up to a lifetime abuse. 867 00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:29,880 Speaker 2: An Imperio looks the part as well. It's available in 868 00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:32,640 Speaker 2: a range of designs, provides a natural quality finish, making 869 00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:35,040 Speaker 2: for a stylish centerpiece to any home, because the home 870 00:41:35,080 --> 00:41:36,640 Speaker 2: the heart of the Homers in the kitchen, of course. 871 00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:39,600 Speaker 2: So best of all, it is a highly affordable option 872 00:41:39,880 --> 00:41:42,360 Speaker 2: to fit your budget. So you'll be interested see for yourself, 873 00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:46,000 Speaker 2: Imperio dot in z as where you're heading Inmperio dot 874 00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:49,640 Speaker 2: in Zhsky. Now it is seven twenty four. I've got 875 00:41:49,640 --> 00:41:52,400 Speaker 2: some simple questions around our attitude to nuclear for you, 876 00:41:52,520 --> 00:41:54,880 Speaker 2: and whether we are capable of becoming slightly more mature 877 00:41:54,880 --> 00:41:57,880 Speaker 2: about all of this. So this country got semi famous 878 00:41:57,880 --> 00:42:00,040 Speaker 2: for its anti nuclear stance. Of course we were, but 879 00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:02,919 Speaker 2: we're still anti nuclear. But we got famous a lifetime ago. 880 00:42:03,160 --> 00:42:05,360 Speaker 2: But the world has changed, It has moved on. Amazon 881 00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:08,040 Speaker 2: and Google as well as Oracle are building their own 882 00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:10,239 Speaker 2: nuclear reactors these days. And of the not building their 883 00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:12,680 Speaker 2: own reactors, they are buying nuclear deals with places like 884 00:42:12,760 --> 00:42:15,960 Speaker 2: Three Mile Island, which also a lifetime ago, made headlines 885 00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:19,200 Speaker 2: around the world. They need nuclear to run data centers. 886 00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:22,479 Speaker 2: Data centers need astonishing amounts of power. New Zealand wants 887 00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:25,520 Speaker 2: to host data centers. Can New Zealand be a data 888 00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:28,080 Speaker 2: center hub given the power system we now run? 889 00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:28,480 Speaker 1: No? 890 00:42:29,160 --> 00:42:32,760 Speaker 2: Ironically, Just yesterday Genesis announced they'll be buying more coal 891 00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:36,200 Speaker 2: for next winter to cover the gap, the ongoing gap 892 00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:38,040 Speaker 2: that's not for data centers, by the way, that's to 893 00:42:38,040 --> 00:42:40,600 Speaker 2: turn the lights on on a cold morning. This country, 894 00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:43,040 Speaker 2: as we found out this winter, can't handle cold mornings, 895 00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:45,920 Speaker 2: far less data centers. And nothing's changing between now and 896 00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:48,719 Speaker 2: next winter. Factor in evs if you want, and we 897 00:42:48,800 --> 00:42:52,120 Speaker 2: return to the ongoing but unanswered question, just what is it. 898 00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:55,640 Speaker 2: We're going to run the country on hydros good, but 899 00:42:55,719 --> 00:42:58,480 Speaker 2: it's not reliable, and neither are any of the other options. 900 00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:00,239 Speaker 2: We may or may not ever get around pretty ing 901 00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:04,480 Speaker 2: at scale when solar batteries, nuclear is the only reliable 902 00:43:05,480 --> 00:43:07,840 Speaker 2: and by the way, it's good for the environment. So 903 00:43:08,000 --> 00:43:11,160 Speaker 2: we want to run data centers. We don't have enough power, 904 00:43:11,680 --> 00:43:14,720 Speaker 2: we're still burning more coal and the thing we hate, 905 00:43:14,960 --> 00:43:17,840 Speaker 2: nuclear is a viable option and being picked up and 906 00:43:17,880 --> 00:43:20,200 Speaker 2: run with around the rest of the world. Are we 907 00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:22,640 Speaker 2: to be left behind or are we to grow up 908 00:43:23,040 --> 00:43:23,800 Speaker 2: and move forward? 909 00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:23,920 Speaker 13: Now? 910 00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:27,480 Speaker 2: I'd like to think that answers itself. But let's see 911 00:43:28,440 --> 00:43:31,680 Speaker 2: ski disappointed to see yesterday we're going to lose an 912 00:43:31,719 --> 00:43:34,600 Speaker 2: electorate seat. North Ireland, in fact, is going to lose 913 00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:36,680 Speaker 2: an electorate seat in the election of twenty twenty six, 914 00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:39,279 Speaker 2: so there's going to be sixty four electorate seats, not 915 00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:42,239 Speaker 2: sixty five. Don't worry about the parliament. There's still one 916 00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:43,840 Speaker 2: hundred and twenty one of them before you get to 917 00:43:43,840 --> 00:43:45,640 Speaker 2: an overhang, so there's a thrill. So there's one hundred 918 00:43:45,640 --> 00:43:47,160 Speaker 2: and twenty one, which means you got another list seat? 919 00:43:47,160 --> 00:43:49,560 Speaker 2: Do we need more list seat? As a result of 920 00:43:50,200 --> 00:43:53,560 Speaker 2: fewer electorate seats, new boundaries are going to be drawn 921 00:43:53,640 --> 00:43:56,600 Speaker 2: up for the twenty twenty six elections. So where specifically 922 00:43:57,000 --> 00:44:00,520 Speaker 2: that gets hit, I don't know, but we will wait 923 00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:04,440 Speaker 2: and see. The MARI seats remain. By the way, at seven, 924 00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:07,800 Speaker 2: I note also that the kids, I suppose can I 925 00:44:07,840 --> 00:44:10,560 Speaker 2: call them kids? Sixteen seventeen year olds young people? The 926 00:44:10,600 --> 00:44:13,880 Speaker 2: ten offenders as part of the government's pilot military boot 927 00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:16,240 Speaker 2: camp academy, whatever you want. 928 00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:16,480 Speaker 10: To call it. 929 00:44:16,520 --> 00:44:19,960 Speaker 2: They graduated once again if that's the right word, on Sunday, 930 00:44:20,480 --> 00:44:23,319 Speaker 2: and they now move into their remaining nine months in 931 00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:26,480 Speaker 2: the community. So the news this morning is that there's 932 00:44:26,480 --> 00:44:28,600 Speaker 2: a little bit of concern that some of them might reoffend, 933 00:44:28,640 --> 00:44:30,560 Speaker 2: find a roof climb on it. Who knows what us 934 00:44:30,600 --> 00:44:34,200 Speaker 2: for a getaway car. Maybe some KFC I don't know anyway. 935 00:44:34,280 --> 00:44:38,640 Speaker 2: So far, the pilot organizers they're cautious to declare success, 936 00:44:39,640 --> 00:44:43,000 Speaker 2: but things so far, the initial three month in residence 937 00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:48,759 Speaker 2: phase has gone well and they've seen noted a noticeable 938 00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:53,000 Speaker 2: behavioral shift in the young men. So three months inside, 939 00:44:53,520 --> 00:44:57,360 Speaker 2: nine months in the community intensive care alongside with people 940 00:44:57,400 --> 00:45:00,640 Speaker 2: helping them out and fingers crossed. I mean, there's no critics. 941 00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:01,560 Speaker 2: It's like the old lunches. 942 00:45:02,080 --> 00:45:03,680 Speaker 9: There's only ten of them. I mean, how hard is 943 00:45:03,719 --> 00:45:05,239 Speaker 9: it going to be to just keep an eye on them? 944 00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:07,879 Speaker 2: To be fair, I think one lift, one didn't want 945 00:45:07,880 --> 00:45:09,439 Speaker 2: to leave. I think one left. I might be wrong, 946 00:45:09,480 --> 00:45:10,160 Speaker 2: but I think one left. 947 00:45:10,239 --> 00:45:11,640 Speaker 20: Oh, it is quite hard to keep it eye. 948 00:45:11,640 --> 00:45:13,160 Speaker 2: It is quite hard to keep an eye on them. 949 00:45:13,360 --> 00:45:16,399 Speaker 2: Moving to Australia and a lot of people are doing it. 950 00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:18,799 Speaker 2: It's a thing, but it might not be all it's 951 00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:19,480 Speaker 2: cracked up to be. 952 00:45:19,719 --> 00:45:19,879 Speaker 16: More. 953 00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:22,080 Speaker 2: Shortly, the big. 954 00:45:22,080 --> 00:45:27,279 Speaker 1: Use bold opinions, the mic Hosking Breakfast with the Range Rover, 955 00:45:27,400 --> 00:45:30,800 Speaker 1: the law designed to intrigue and use togs.

When it comes to 967 00:45:55,239 --> 00:45:58,279 Speaker 2: the construction industry, the infrastructure industry generally, and is it 968 00:45:58,400 --> 00:46:01,720 Speaker 2: well it's shrinking.

I know, for example, 974 00:46:10,680 --> 00:46:14,640 Speaker 2: wages comparable for electricians and telecom workers except if you 975 00:46:14,640 --> 00:46:16,440 Speaker 2: happen to be in Victoria in New South Wales. So 976 00:46:16,560 --> 00:46:17,840 Speaker 2: what do you have to be? Where do you have 977 00:46:17,920 --> 00:46:19,640 Speaker 2: to be before you start getting all these weird and 978 00:46:19,680 --> 00:46:21,200 Speaker 2: wonderful comparisons. 979 00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:26,240 Speaker 20: The ounce's context, Mike, it is quite hard. So reality 980 00:46:26,400 --> 00:46:29,920 Speaker 20: is the free occupations you looked at, well, lots of 981 00:46:29,920 --> 00:46:34,040 Speaker 20: occupations looked at the Letcher Tech was the same, but 982 00:46:34,160 --> 00:46:36,560 Speaker 20: for mobile plant operators and construction workers deal with quite 983 00:46:36,560 --> 00:46:39,279 Speaker 20: a big difference. Australia is paying more. I think the 984 00:46:39,360 --> 00:46:41,800 Speaker 20: key thing is that it's a lot more in salaries, 985 00:46:41,920 --> 00:46:47,239 Speaker 20: involves house prices, US takes income, school fees, medical fees, 986 00:46:47,280 --> 00:46:49,360 Speaker 20: those other things. We're trying to bring a wider picture 987 00:46:49,560 --> 00:46:52,920 Speaker 20: good and trying to bring a update information for employers 988 00:46:52,960 --> 00:46:53,360 Speaker 20: and workers. 989 00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:56,640 Speaker 2: I'm very glad you're doing it because life stage, I note, 990 00:46:56,640 --> 00:46:58,680 Speaker 2: plays an interesting role. So when you're young, you're a 991 00:46:58,760 --> 00:47:01,160 Speaker 2: bit frustrated. You will looking in the meatworks in the 992 00:47:01,160 --> 00:47:02,800 Speaker 2: middle of the North Island. You got laid off the 993 00:47:02,880 --> 00:47:05,200 Speaker 2: other day. Why wouldn't you go to Australia. But by 994 00:47:05,280 --> 00:47:07,640 Speaker 2: the time you have some children, look at education, et cetera. 995 00:47:07,960 --> 00:47:09,040 Speaker 2: It all changes, didn't it. 996 00:47:10,200 --> 00:47:12,680 Speaker 20: Exactly. What we found is that when people are young 997 00:47:12,760 --> 00:47:15,600 Speaker 20: and just been traditional oe to Australia's tradeing oe, they 998 00:47:15,640 --> 00:47:18,160 Speaker 20: can go and live in Bondo Beach and work lots 999 00:47:18,200 --> 00:47:20,359 Speaker 20: of ours, get lots of overtime. But as they get 1000 00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:24,120 Speaker 20: older and they want to settle down, then come the 1001 00:47:24,200 --> 00:47:27,040 Speaker 20: housing gap is is shrunk. Socially, it's more attractive in 1002 00:47:27,040 --> 00:47:29,840 Speaker 20: New Zealand to have raise a family, buy a house 1003 00:47:30,440 --> 00:47:33,279 Speaker 20: and go from there. So it's also Australia. One thing, 1004 00:47:33,440 --> 00:47:35,799 Speaker 20: Mike is Australia seems to be a lot more misogynistic 1005 00:47:36,360 --> 00:47:39,480 Speaker 20: and our culture is better here. So if your female 1006 00:47:39,520 --> 00:47:40,200 Speaker 20: worker is better to. 1007 00:47:40,200 --> 00:47:42,239 Speaker 2: Work in zone, how do you measure that? 1008 00:47:44,080 --> 00:47:46,120 Speaker 20: Well, that's through the through the quality of the feedback 1009 00:47:46,160 --> 00:47:49,399 Speaker 20: we got. We did both quantitative administrative startup, but also 1010 00:47:49,520 --> 00:47:51,399 Speaker 20: lots of interviews, and that was one of the things 1011 00:47:51,400 --> 00:47:57,439 Speaker 20: that came through quite strongly that Australia has a harder cultures, satistic, 1012 00:47:58,520 --> 00:47:59,600 Speaker 20: both male and female. 1013 00:48:00,040 --> 00:48:01,719 Speaker 2: Yes, it's true. I'm just interested. I mean, if you 1014 00:48:01,760 --> 00:48:03,839 Speaker 2: look at the reporter to Channel Line the other day 1015 00:48:03,880 --> 00:48:06,160 Speaker 2: and the media in general, I mean it's shocking what 1016 00:48:06,320 --> 00:48:08,640 Speaker 2: goes on in some parts of that sort of. But 1017 00:48:08,760 --> 00:48:10,360 Speaker 2: then you come back to the question why do you 1018 00:48:10,400 --> 00:48:12,319 Speaker 2: move to Australia in the first place, And how much 1019 00:48:12,360 --> 00:48:16,200 Speaker 2: of it's about beer and sunshine and just good vibes, 1020 00:48:16,280 --> 00:48:18,080 Speaker 2: And you can tell me a million different things. I 1021 00:48:18,120 --> 00:48:19,360 Speaker 2: don't care because I'm going. 1022 00:48:21,200 --> 00:48:24,359 Speaker 20: That's true. Well, as you know, as you said, your 1023 00:48:24,480 --> 00:48:26,160 Speaker 20: chund and doors are over there as well in terms 1024 00:48:26,200 --> 00:48:28,440 Speaker 20: of England and Australia, and so I always get that. 1025 00:48:28,560 --> 00:48:30,200 Speaker 20: The key thing is how do we think people back 1026 00:48:30,600 --> 00:48:32,319 Speaker 20: and how do we make sure there's up to date 1027 00:48:32,320 --> 00:48:35,360 Speaker 20: information because people aren't always spending lots of money in 1028 00:48:35,360 --> 00:48:37,040 Speaker 20: the mind anymore, so you'll make sure it's up to 1029 00:48:37,080 --> 00:48:40,120 Speaker 20: date information. And also we know within sort of fifteen 1030 00:48:40,560 --> 00:48:43,440 Speaker 20: eighteen months, twenty twenty six and twenty seven we're going 1031 00:48:43,480 --> 00:48:46,960 Speaker 20: to start to big up take in construction and instructure 1032 00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:48,840 Speaker 20: any workers here to deliver that. 1033 00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:52,080 Speaker 2: That's an interesting part of your report. People need to 1034 00:48:52,080 --> 00:48:55,000 Speaker 2: think about New Zealand's long term potential? Do you think 1035 00:48:55,080 --> 00:48:55,360 Speaker 2: they do? 1036 00:48:58,440 --> 00:49:01,439 Speaker 20: Probably not, to be honest, I think they're probably thinking 1037 00:49:01,600 --> 00:49:03,360 Speaker 20: because they got a job, if they're making money, the 1038 00:49:03,400 --> 00:49:06,560 Speaker 20: opportunity to make a start a business. But I'm thinking 1039 00:49:06,560 --> 00:49:08,240 Speaker 20: about that. I'm thinking, how can we have the labor 1040 00:49:09,040 --> 00:49:11,640 Speaker 20: skilled labor to twenty six three seven when we get 1041 00:49:11,680 --> 00:49:14,600 Speaker 20: out of this sort of dolgrum and start seeing major 1042 00:49:15,200 --> 00:49:18,000 Speaker 20: works come on line over next two or three years. 1043 00:49:18,360 --> 00:49:20,239 Speaker 2: Fantastic Good on you, Philip. I'm glad you've done the work. 1044 00:49:20,239 --> 00:49:22,360 Speaker 2: Appreciate it very much. Philip Aldridge of the Construction and 1045 00:49:22,400 --> 00:49:26,480 Speaker 2: Infrastructure Workforce Development Council CEO, And he's right. Our son's 1046 00:49:26,520 --> 00:49:28,920 Speaker 2: just moved to Edinburgh, by the way, not that you care, 1047 00:49:29,239 --> 00:49:31,000 Speaker 2: but I'm just telling you this because he raised it 1048 00:49:31,120 --> 00:49:33,879 Speaker 2: interestingly enough. It's the question will they ever be back? 1049 00:49:34,760 --> 00:49:38,640 Speaker 2: One won't. I'm almost certain they won't. The other one 1050 00:49:39,160 --> 00:49:41,640 Speaker 2: I couldn't tell you. But he's moved from London to 1051 00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:44,480 Speaker 2: Edinburgh and he's loving Edinburgh. He thinks Edinburgh is a 1052 00:49:44,560 --> 00:49:49,000 Speaker 2: fantastic place. It is warm, not literally it's freezing, but 1053 00:49:49,120 --> 00:49:52,080 Speaker 2: it's kind and it's friendly and it's open. And he 1054 00:49:52,200 --> 00:49:56,040 Speaker 2: tells us the Scots have the best sense of humor going, 1055 00:49:56,200 --> 00:49:56,960 Speaker 2: which is nice night. 1056 00:49:57,239 --> 00:49:58,719 Speaker 9: And it's a long way away from you, of course, 1057 00:49:58,920 --> 00:49:59,839 Speaker 9: it is a long way away. 1058 00:50:00,400 --> 00:50:03,719 Speaker 2: That is That is indeed correct. It is my last gig, 1059 00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:08,200 Speaker 2: nineteen minutes away from I note that the millennium speaking 1060 00:50:08,239 --> 00:50:10,160 Speaker 2: of good things happening in the economy. I'm glad that 1061 00:50:10,239 --> 00:50:12,200 Speaker 2: report does that because if you look at New Zealand, 1062 00:50:12,320 --> 00:50:15,080 Speaker 2: I've got a good vibe about New Zealand. Not literally 1063 00:50:15,160 --> 00:50:18,359 Speaker 2: right here right now, but I've said a couple of times, 1064 00:50:18,400 --> 00:50:20,160 Speaker 2: and i just want to reiterate when I'm proven right, 1065 00:50:20,200 --> 00:50:22,360 Speaker 2: so you can go. Didn't Mike say that by the 1066 00:50:22,520 --> 00:50:25,719 Speaker 2: end of this year, which isn't that far away. When 1067 00:50:25,800 --> 00:50:28,080 Speaker 2: you go into the Christmas period, you're going to be 1068 00:50:28,080 --> 00:50:30,560 Speaker 2: seeing a number of things that are looking up, just 1069 00:50:30,680 --> 00:50:33,799 Speaker 2: in general, the vibe, the mood, the marbo. The interest 1070 00:50:33,880 --> 00:50:35,959 Speaker 2: rates will be down, the housing market will be moving, 1071 00:50:36,280 --> 00:50:38,399 Speaker 2: the job market might not have turned, but it'll be close. 1072 00:50:38,480 --> 00:50:40,200 Speaker 2: And then when you move into twenty twenty five, we're 1073 00:50:40,239 --> 00:50:42,160 Speaker 2: going to start to see some real momentum. By twenty 1074 00:50:42,239 --> 00:50:43,840 Speaker 2: six it's going to be business as normal. That's my 1075 00:50:43,960 --> 00:50:46,279 Speaker 2: vibe about this. So I'm glad that somebody's putting out 1076 00:50:46,280 --> 00:50:48,240 Speaker 2: reports telling us to think a little bit more longer 1077 00:50:48,360 --> 00:50:50,040 Speaker 2: term as opposed to the here and now. Anyway, back 1078 00:50:50,040 --> 00:50:53,720 Speaker 2: to hospitality Millennium and copthorm As in the hotel people, 1079 00:50:54,239 --> 00:50:57,040 Speaker 2: they're back into Christy for the first time since the earthquakes, 1080 00:50:57,120 --> 00:50:58,920 Speaker 2: which I didn't realize they had left, because I mean, 1081 00:50:58,920 --> 00:51:00,160 Speaker 2: you know, when you stay at a hotel, who the 1082 00:51:00,200 --> 00:51:02,240 Speaker 2: hell knows who owns the thing doesn't really matter. Anyway, 1083 00:51:02,239 --> 00:51:04,359 Speaker 2: They've gone and bought the Mafia Hotel, which I am 1084 00:51:04,440 --> 00:51:07,360 Speaker 2: here to tell you I am a frequenter of, and 1085 00:51:07,440 --> 00:51:08,800 Speaker 2: when we go to christ Use we stay at the 1086 00:51:08,800 --> 00:51:11,880 Speaker 2: Mayfia Hotel. Why because the cool hotel and so obviously 1087 00:51:11,920 --> 00:51:14,279 Speaker 2: the Millennium and Copthurn people work that out.

So yet another little sign that people are 1091 00:51:22,280 --> 00:51:25,279 Speaker 2: vibing in the positive direction. About one christ Church in two, 1092 00:51:25,320 --> 00:51:26,719 Speaker 2: New Zealand seventeen to two. 1093 00:51:28,120 --> 00:51:32,560 Speaker 1: The Mike Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered 1094 00:51:32,640 --> 00:51:33,600 Speaker 1: by the News Talks at Me. 1095 00:51:34,360 --> 00:51:36,920 Speaker 2: It is fourteen away from a Northland speaking of tourism 1096 00:51:36,960 --> 00:51:38,839 Speaker 2: and hotels, it's the Mayfia.

I 1101 00:51:52,360 --> 00:51:54,400 Speaker 2: don't know what the size of the tourism market to 1102 00:51:54,600 --> 00:51:57,759 Speaker 2: spot Rear Wildlife is, but international travelers they write and 1103 00:51:57,800 --> 00:52:00,920 Speaker 2: they're correct. Landing in Auckland usually hits south, but the 1104 00:52:00,960 --> 00:52:04,520 Speaker 2: little visited Northland region has fascinating wildlife and warm waters 1105 00:52:04,560 --> 00:52:08,680 Speaker 2: that offer excellent diving. All true. Many fish species in 1106 00:52:08,719 --> 00:52:13,080 Speaker 2: the reserve are such spotted black groper, the mosaic moray, 1107 00:52:13,680 --> 00:52:16,279 Speaker 2: the Lord how coral fish? The Lord? How coral fish 1108 00:52:16,360 --> 00:52:19,640 Speaker 2: only found nowhere else in the country. I know ague 1109 00:52:19,640 --> 00:52:22,120 Speaker 2: with it. So what's the walk that's broken at the 1110 00:52:22,120 --> 00:52:24,600 Speaker 2: moment by the cathedral cove because you can't get the steps. 1111 00:52:24,680 --> 00:52:28,839 Speaker 2: Don't worry about that. Got the coral fish. See one 1112 00:52:28,920 --> 00:52:31,200 Speaker 2: door closes, another one opens. That's how it works, isn't it. 1113 00:52:32,560 --> 00:52:33,800 Speaker 2: I don't know if I'm going to have time, but 1114 00:52:33,840 --> 00:52:40,040 Speaker 2: this very interesting piece TV three's Stuff's ratings. The news 1115 00:52:40,360 --> 00:52:44,560 Speaker 2: is in dire, dire, dire trouble and I will come 1116 00:52:44,600 --> 00:52:46,760 Speaker 2: back to that later on. I got some interesting numbers yesterday, 1117 00:52:46,760 --> 00:52:48,320 Speaker 2: but it's very good piece this morning. You've got to 1118 00:52:48,360 --> 00:52:50,960 Speaker 2: read it follows on from Layatensmith. We did the interview 1119 00:52:51,160 --> 00:52:54,640 Speaker 2: last week or the week before, can't remember, but Lighton 1120 00:52:54,719 --> 00:52:57,120 Speaker 2: did a podcast with them, Roger Partridge of the New 1121 00:52:57,239 --> 00:53:01,080 Speaker 2: Zealand Initiative, and they're deeply concerned, as we all should be, 1122 00:53:01,920 --> 00:53:04,040 Speaker 2: with the overreach of the Supreme Court in the moment, 1123 00:53:04,520 --> 00:53:07,680 Speaker 2: so our highest court overstepping its bounds, reshaping laws and 1124 00:53:07,760 --> 00:53:10,200 Speaker 2: ways that challenge Parliament's authority, says a new piece from 1125 00:53:10,239 --> 00:53:12,120 Speaker 2: Roger this morning, where they come up with a couple 1126 00:53:12,120 --> 00:53:13,759 Speaker 2: of solutions as to what the government should be doing 1127 00:53:13,800 --> 00:53:17,279 Speaker 2: about this overreach in New Zealands and new report who 1128 00:53:17,400 --> 00:53:20,279 Speaker 2: makes the law reigning in the Supreme Court. So they've 1129 00:53:20,280 --> 00:53:22,760 Speaker 2: got a couple of ideas. Parliament should introduce a traditional, 1130 00:53:22,880 --> 00:53:25,920 Speaker 2: thin definition of the rule of law into the Senior 1131 00:53:26,000 --> 00:53:29,360 Speaker 2: Courts Act. This would moderate the Supreme Court's intervention ast tendencies. 1132 00:53:29,800 --> 00:53:32,000 Speaker 2: Parliament should also tighten the rules the courts use when 1133 00:53:32,080 --> 00:53:34,759 Speaker 2: interpreting laws made by Parliament. The Legislation Act of twenty 1134 00:53:34,840 --> 00:53:37,680 Speaker 2: nineteen provides guidelines for how court should approach this task, 1135 00:53:38,120 --> 00:53:41,280 Speaker 2: but these guidelines are broad, giving judge a significant leeway. 1136 00:53:41,640 --> 00:53:44,200 Speaker 2: Tightening these rules in a couple of key ways would help. Firstly, 1137 00:53:44,520 --> 00:53:48,640 Speaker 2: Parliament should specific or specify that courts must interpret statues 1138 00:53:48,760 --> 00:53:51,360 Speaker 2: based on their context at the time of enactment. Now 1139 00:53:51,400 --> 00:53:53,440 Speaker 2: that goes back to the twenty eleven business of the 1140 00:53:53,480 --> 00:53:57,040 Speaker 2: Foreshore that the Government are currently grappling with. Secondly, Parliament 1141 00:53:57,080 --> 00:54:01,200 Speaker 2: should restrict the principle of legality, aged judicial doctrine that 1142 00:54:01,360 --> 00:54:04,600 Speaker 2: protects purported rights from being overridden by general or am 1143 00:54:04,920 --> 00:54:08,960 Speaker 2: ambiguous statutory language. They also say reforming the Bill of 1144 00:54:09,080 --> 00:54:12,840 Speaker 2: Rights is another crucial step. Our report recommends reforming the 1145 00:54:12,960 --> 00:54:17,720 Speaker 2: judicial appointment processes. Appointments to Senior Appellate Court should favor 1146 00:54:17,840 --> 00:54:24,839 Speaker 2: candidates who have demonstrated judicial restraint and respect for Parliament's role. Now, 1147 00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:27,920 Speaker 2: whether any of that's going to happen or not is 1148 00:54:28,040 --> 00:54:31,879 Speaker 2: highly debatable, but it needs to and the sooner the better. 1149 00:54:32,120 --> 00:54:34,680 Speaker 2: Eleven Away From eight the make. 1150 00:54:34,520 --> 00:54:38,879 Speaker 1: Costu Racist with Faws Talk says The Away from Queen 1151 00:54:38,960 --> 00:54:41,320 Speaker 1: Sounds finally opened its film production facility. 1152 00:54:41,440 --> 00:54:45,320 Speaker 2: Five years of the making remarkable studio now open for business. 1153 00:54:45,400 --> 00:54:47,200 Speaker 2: It's an alternative to what's off. And I suppose an 1154 00:54:47,200 --> 00:54:50,280 Speaker 2: Auckland screen Time New Zealand boss Philly de Lacy happens 1155 00:54:50,320 --> 00:54:51,520 Speaker 2: to be in France at the moment, but that's not 1156 00:54:51,560 --> 00:54:53,120 Speaker 2: going to stop because we got the tech to get 1157 00:54:53,120 --> 00:54:56,479 Speaker 2: her on the old WhatsApp morning. I remember talking about 1158 00:54:56,520 --> 00:54:59,480 Speaker 2: this when this this whole thing was first mooted. Is 1159 00:54:59,600 --> 00:55:01,560 Speaker 2: it if everything you dreamed it would be. 1160 00:55:03,040 --> 00:55:07,760 Speaker 18: The studio? Yeah, I'm delighted. Oh look, we're so excited 1161 00:55:07,760 --> 00:55:12,080 Speaker 18: about it. We've been looking for a studio space in 1162 00:55:12,400 --> 00:55:15,719 Speaker 18: Queenstown for I've been looking for more than five years. 1163 00:55:15,719 --> 00:55:17,759 Speaker 18: I know lots lots of people have been looking for 1164 00:55:17,800 --> 00:55:24,960 Speaker 18: a lot longer. And we were in Queenstown starting up 1165 00:55:25,000 --> 00:55:26,719 Speaker 18: A Remarkable Place to Die at the beginning of the 1166 00:55:26,840 --> 00:55:32,040 Speaker 18: year and an old department store came available and we 1167 00:55:32,320 --> 00:55:34,480 Speaker 18: all just like the whole team rang me and they're like, 1168 00:55:34,800 --> 00:55:36,399 Speaker 18: we've got to take it, and I went, oh my god, 1169 00:55:36,440 --> 00:55:39,320 Speaker 18: we've got to take it. And so we filmed A 1170 00:55:39,360 --> 00:55:41,640 Speaker 18: Remarkable Place to Die, which is an eight hour series 1171 00:55:41,640 --> 00:55:45,920 Speaker 18: which is launching here atcom at the moment in the studio, 1172 00:55:46,320 --> 00:55:48,800 Speaker 18: and it was just too good to let go. So 1173 00:55:49,680 --> 00:55:52,400 Speaker 18: we've spent a bit of time negotiating, figuring out how 1174 00:55:52,440 --> 00:55:55,080 Speaker 18: we're going to run it, and we're now open for business. 1175 00:55:55,800 --> 00:55:58,440 Speaker 2: So can you answer the question, if you build it, 1176 00:55:58,960 --> 00:55:59,600 Speaker 2: will they come? 1177 00:56:00,920 --> 00:56:05,280 Speaker 18: Well, since we announced that, we've had multitudes of inquiry, 1178 00:56:05,400 --> 00:56:06,440 Speaker 18: so I would say, so. 1179 00:56:07,520 --> 00:56:10,440 Speaker 2: Are you eating somebody else's lunch like Aukland's. 1180 00:56:11,520 --> 00:56:12,200 Speaker 7: No, not at all. 1181 00:56:12,480 --> 00:56:14,879 Speaker 18: I think there is a lot of production that will 1182 00:56:14,880 --> 00:56:17,600 Speaker 18: spread all over the country. It's a small space, but 1183 00:56:17,840 --> 00:56:22,400 Speaker 18: it's what it does is make production in Queenstown a 1184 00:56:22,480 --> 00:56:25,480 Speaker 18: lot smoother and much simpler process. And you know, we've 1185 00:56:25,520 --> 00:56:29,759 Speaker 18: got absolutely spectacular locations in Queenstown and it needs a 1186 00:56:29,800 --> 00:56:33,480 Speaker 18: facility to really be able to make the production industry 1187 00:56:33,520 --> 00:56:36,759 Speaker 18: in that region boom, and you know, and it's a 1188 00:56:36,840 --> 00:56:40,359 Speaker 18: great complementary industry to tourism, so it sort of goes 1189 00:56:40,440 --> 00:56:42,440 Speaker 18: hand in hand, and we really want to build the 1190 00:56:42,480 --> 00:56:43,319 Speaker 18: infrastructure there. 1191 00:56:43,960 --> 00:56:45,560 Speaker 2: Going to do you have the people or do you 1192 00:56:45,680 --> 00:56:47,479 Speaker 2: need the people? And do they need to relate? 1193 00:56:47,640 --> 00:56:50,320 Speaker 18: I've got lots of amazing people and we want to 1194 00:56:50,360 --> 00:56:53,200 Speaker 18: attract more. It's the upshot. 1195 00:56:53,880 --> 00:56:56,040 Speaker 2: What's your state, because you'd be at the cutting edge 1196 00:56:56,040 --> 00:56:57,680 Speaker 2: of all of this. See the media landscape in this 1197 00:56:57,760 --> 00:57:00,040 Speaker 2: country is in some dire straits at the mind, but 1198 00:57:00,280 --> 00:57:02,200 Speaker 2: then again on the international stage, you got all the 1199 00:57:02,239 --> 00:57:04,640 Speaker 2: streamers making no end of product. At the moment, are 1200 00:57:04,719 --> 00:57:06,480 Speaker 2: things good for people like you or not? 1201 00:57:08,360 --> 00:57:10,719 Speaker 18: We look, I want to touch wood a lot of 1202 00:57:10,760 --> 00:57:13,680 Speaker 18: the time because we're having a great year at the moment. 1203 00:57:13,880 --> 00:57:18,800 Speaker 18: We the industry in New Zealand is really tough. You know, 1204 00:57:18,960 --> 00:57:23,200 Speaker 18: our broadcasters are going through a really, really difficult time 1205 00:57:24,720 --> 00:57:27,200 Speaker 18: and I hope that gets rectified because I think it's 1206 00:57:27,280 --> 00:57:30,600 Speaker 18: really important to protect our terrestrial broadcasters and that's actually 1207 00:57:30,640 --> 00:57:35,200 Speaker 18: something that's been commonly said around this market. But I 1208 00:57:35,360 --> 00:57:42,000 Speaker 18: think that there's also opportunity you know, there's shrinkage in 1209 00:57:42,040 --> 00:57:43,880 Speaker 18: the market around the world, which means that people are 1210 00:57:43,920 --> 00:57:46,640 Speaker 18: looking for different ways to do business. And New Zealand's 1211 00:57:46,640 --> 00:57:49,480 Speaker 18: a great market to do business. We've got amazing crews, 1212 00:57:49,600 --> 00:57:52,360 Speaker 18: we've got the New Zealand dollar, we've got you know, 1213 00:57:52,600 --> 00:57:57,160 Speaker 18: equivalent rebates to everywhere else in the world, and we're 1214 00:57:57,360 --> 00:58:02,920 Speaker 18: a really good, honest, you know, excellent operators. So I 1215 00:58:03,000 --> 00:58:06,760 Speaker 18: think that that's what, you know, that's a real strength 1216 00:58:06,800 --> 00:58:08,760 Speaker 18: for us, and I think that there's there's actually real 1217 00:58:08,840 --> 00:58:12,960 Speaker 18: opportunities for us to do more co productions, look at 1218 00:58:13,000 --> 00:58:16,680 Speaker 18: different ways of doing business, and eventually things will come right. 1219 00:58:16,880 --> 00:58:17,080 Speaker 7: Good. 1220 00:58:17,360 --> 00:58:20,160 Speaker 2: Philly go well in France. Philly the Lacy screen Time 1221 00:58:20,240 --> 00:58:23,120 Speaker 2: New Zealand five minutes away from it. As from the 1222 00:58:23,200 --> 00:58:27,600 Speaker 2: general media reading yesterday that TV three Stuff's News on 1223 00:58:27,880 --> 00:58:31,280 Speaker 2: Sunday was watched by twenty six thousand, three hundred people 1224 00:58:32,440 --> 00:58:34,680 Speaker 2: in the demo, which I think is twenty five to 1225 00:58:34,720 --> 00:58:36,840 Speaker 2: fifty four. Twenty six thousand and three hundred people. Is nobody, 1226 00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:38,600 Speaker 2: I mean in this program on hundreds of thousands of 1227 00:58:38,600 --> 00:58:40,200 Speaker 2: people listen, which is not to you know, spreak this 1228 00:58:40,280 --> 00:58:42,360 Speaker 2: program just trying to give you a comparison TV one, 1229 00:58:42,400 --> 00:58:46,440 Speaker 2: which is their direct competitor, had six times the number 1230 00:58:46,480 --> 00:58:50,120 Speaker 2: of viewers, a fifty six share, which means of all 1231 00:58:50,120 --> 00:58:52,000 Speaker 2: the people watching the television, that maybe got fifty six 1232 00:58:52,000 --> 00:58:56,520 Speaker 2: percent of the market to nine when in their so 1233 00:58:56,640 --> 00:58:59,439 Speaker 2: called heyday, I'm reading news have had a thirty share. 1234 00:59:00,040 --> 00:59:01,680 Speaker 2: Then when it all fell apart, and it fell apart 1235 00:59:01,720 --> 00:59:05,040 Speaker 2: completely in July they had a twenty share and on 1236 00:59:05,120 --> 00:59:07,560 Speaker 2: Sunday they were down to nine.

So you go there on a visa 1300 01:02:03,920 --> 01:02:05,320 Speaker 2: and you get to work in that spine and if 1301 01:02:05,360 --> 01:02:07,439 Speaker 2: things go well, you then get maybe a Green card, 1302 01:02:07,520 --> 01:02:09,920 Speaker 2: which you've got and then then you've become a citizenship. 1303 01:02:10,080 --> 01:02:13,200 Speaker 2: But a citizen is a conscious decision, though, isn't it 1304 01:02:13,200 --> 01:02:15,480 Speaker 2: as opposed to being able to merely be there and work. 1305 01:02:15,840 --> 01:02:16,320 Speaker 7: Yes, and. 1306 01:02:17,880 --> 01:02:19,520 Speaker 10: There is a slight difference in that the green card 1307 01:02:19,600 --> 01:02:24,040 Speaker 10: gives you, you know, absolute everything except voting and one 1308 01:02:24,120 --> 01:02:27,160 Speaker 10: other thing which I'm never a call. But you have 1309 01:02:27,360 --> 01:02:29,400 Speaker 10: to remain in the country. You have to be in 1310 01:02:29,480 --> 01:02:32,120 Speaker 10: the country a certain amount of time each year, and 1311 01:02:32,800 --> 01:02:36,120 Speaker 10: you can't then go away work in another country for 1312 01:02:36,240 --> 01:02:38,280 Speaker 10: nine months a year and then come back. It's difficult 1313 01:02:38,360 --> 01:02:40,640 Speaker 10: where if you become a citizen, it's I can come 1314 01:02:40,720 --> 01:02:43,720 Speaker 10: and go as I please. The difference is you pay 1315 01:02:43,880 --> 01:02:45,360 Speaker 10: tax there for the rest of your life or you 1316 01:02:45,440 --> 01:02:48,720 Speaker 10: put in a tax return. And I think they can 1317 01:02:48,760 --> 01:02:51,800 Speaker 10: call you up into the militia if they go to war, 1318 01:02:51,880 --> 01:02:54,800 Speaker 10: which you know in America may well have it. I 1319 01:02:55,000 --> 01:02:56,800 Speaker 10: suspect I've aged out of that risk. 1320 01:02:57,120 --> 01:02:59,640 Speaker 2: What is it about America that made you want to 1321 01:03:00,200 --> 01:03:01,640 Speaker 2: vest to bet extent? 1322 01:03:02,200 --> 01:03:06,400 Speaker 10: I had lived in London for a long time, which 1323 01:03:06,480 --> 01:03:11,640 Speaker 10: I absolutely loved, but the industry there is difficult. If 1324 01:03:11,680 --> 01:03:16,280 Speaker 10: you're not English. I think England is difficult. If you're 1325 01:03:16,280 --> 01:03:20,320 Speaker 10: not England, England is difficult. I grew up in Fiji, 1326 01:03:21,680 --> 01:03:23,880 Speaker 10: so New Zealand, you know, is very much home. But 1327 01:03:23,920 --> 01:03:27,160 Speaker 10: I've never I've never needed a place to be home. 1328 01:03:27,280 --> 01:03:30,240 Speaker 10: Home is a collection of friends or where I want 1329 01:03:30,280 --> 01:03:34,400 Speaker 10: to be. So that freedom in England where slight I 1330 01:03:34,960 --> 01:03:38,520 Speaker 10: found I was there was a freedom from their integral 1331 01:03:38,600 --> 01:03:40,880 Speaker 10: class system and what school you went to and all 1332 01:03:40,920 --> 01:03:43,160 Speaker 10: that thing. We sort of get to skate through that 1333 01:03:43,320 --> 01:03:47,760 Speaker 10: because we're not even in competition for that. But it's 1334 01:03:47,800 --> 01:03:51,760 Speaker 10: a wonderful place. It's just it's a bit grim. So 1335 01:03:51,840 --> 01:03:53,720 Speaker 10: you talk to people about you know, I'd have a 1336 01:03:53,760 --> 01:03:56,080 Speaker 10: meeting with my manager or agent there and that'd be like, oh, 1337 01:03:56,160 --> 01:03:58,640 Speaker 10: it's terrible, darling. It's you know, it's all awful. There's 1338 01:03:58,680 --> 01:04:01,800 Speaker 10: nothing going on all you know, it was booming industry. 1339 01:04:01,840 --> 01:04:05,200 Speaker 10: But you go to America and especially when you first 1340 01:04:05,280 --> 01:04:08,760 Speaker 10: arrived there, and you know, you go to meetings everywhere, 1341 01:04:08,800 --> 01:04:11,320 Speaker 10: so everyone wants to meet anyone new just in case 1342 01:04:11,400 --> 01:04:15,280 Speaker 10: there and everyone is so god damn positive that like, 1343 01:04:15,320 --> 01:04:17,560 Speaker 10: oh we're so glad you're here. It's amazing, We're going 1344 01:04:17,600 --> 01:04:19,200 Speaker 10: to do great things. I can't wait to work with you. 1345 01:04:19,760 --> 01:04:23,080 Speaker 10: So you it's you know, and it's it's rubbish, but 1346 01:04:23,240 --> 01:04:28,400 Speaker 10: it's that positivity is amazing and and it really is 1347 01:04:28,480 --> 01:04:31,040 Speaker 10: the place for this industry where you know, things are 1348 01:04:31,120 --> 01:04:34,280 Speaker 10: changing a bit now, but there was a sense of 1349 01:04:35,880 --> 01:04:39,560 Speaker 10: anything as possible. And also it was a large enough 1350 01:04:39,680 --> 01:04:42,720 Speaker 10: market that you are in one successful show, you make 1351 01:04:42,840 --> 01:04:45,120 Speaker 10: enough needing to be safe for a while. 1352 01:04:45,400 --> 01:04:48,240 Speaker 2: That's the story of America, though, isn't it anything as possible? 1353 01:04:48,280 --> 01:04:51,160 Speaker 10: Anything as possible. It's I'm not sure how real that 1354 01:04:51,280 --> 01:04:55,440 Speaker 10: story is anymore real for you, Yes it is, but 1355 01:04:55,560 --> 01:04:58,680 Speaker 10: there is there is a you know, every country has 1356 01:04:58,720 --> 01:05:00,760 Speaker 10: its own myth and its own idea of itself enough, 1357 01:05:00,800 --> 01:05:08,000 Speaker 10: and that's slightly outdated, I but there is greater possibility. 1358 01:05:08,080 --> 01:05:12,120 Speaker 10: It's just a very big place. It's and California is 1359 01:05:12,160 --> 01:05:14,520 Speaker 10: different to a lot of you know, it's Europe. It's 1360 01:05:14,520 --> 01:05:16,920 Speaker 10: a whole lot of different countries all shoved together pretending 1361 01:05:16,960 --> 01:05:18,040 Speaker 10: to be one country exactly. 1362 01:05:18,280 --> 01:05:20,280 Speaker 2: Let's talk about some of the spartacles and that stuff 1363 01:05:20,320 --> 01:05:22,120 Speaker 2: in the moment, the armor give and shortly Craig Parkers 1364 01:05:22,120 --> 01:05:23,280 Speaker 2: with us twelve minutes past. 1365 01:05:23,160 --> 01:05:28,320 Speaker 1: Eight, the mic asking breakfast full show podcast on iHeartRadio, 1366 01:05:28,560 --> 01:05:29,680 Speaker 1: car it by News Talks. 1367 01:05:29,720 --> 01:05:33,400 Speaker 2: It just talks to quarter past Craig Parkers with us. 1368 01:05:33,680 --> 01:05:35,480 Speaker 2: So you can't tell us what you were here filming. 1369 01:05:35,520 --> 01:05:37,360 Speaker 2: That's fine, but you are here for the Alma Gidden thing. 1370 01:05:37,640 --> 01:05:39,280 Speaker 2: Just let me get into that by talking about Lord 1371 01:05:39,320 --> 01:05:40,560 Speaker 2: of the Ring, Spartacus. 1372 01:05:40,480 --> 01:05:41,680 Speaker 10: That whole world. 1373 01:05:42,560 --> 01:05:45,520 Speaker 2: How did you get into it? And did you partially 1374 01:05:45,560 --> 01:05:47,560 Speaker 2: answer the question by saying once you get and it 1375 01:05:47,720 --> 01:05:49,240 Speaker 2: leads to a whole bunch of other stuff. 1376 01:05:49,240 --> 01:05:55,360 Speaker 10: Anyway, Absolutely it was. There was a show Hercules, yeah, 1377 01:05:55,360 --> 01:05:57,920 Speaker 10: and there was a show Zena and Young Herk and 1378 01:05:58,000 --> 01:05:59,560 Speaker 10: a number of sort of robbed hap at. One of 1379 01:06:00,160 --> 01:06:04,040 Speaker 10: great producer came to New Zealand to use New Zealand's 1380 01:06:04,080 --> 01:06:07,680 Speaker 10: environment and for fantasy, and they were campy and they 1381 01:06:07,720 --> 01:06:13,280 Speaker 10: were silly, but they became big money shows for New Zealand. 1382 01:06:13,600 --> 01:06:16,640 Speaker 10: We hadn't been used to any of those budgets, and 1383 01:06:16,800 --> 01:06:19,680 Speaker 10: you know, the shows were pretty crappy, but it was 1384 01:06:19,760 --> 01:06:23,520 Speaker 10: suddenly a different way of working. So all of New 1385 01:06:23,640 --> 01:06:26,720 Speaker 10: Zealand's crew and all of Auckland at least Crewe and 1386 01:06:26,840 --> 01:06:29,640 Speaker 10: actors all were on the show at some stage. And 1387 01:06:29,800 --> 01:06:32,280 Speaker 10: as an actor you would be invited back, you know, 1388 01:06:32,360 --> 01:06:33,920 Speaker 10: every couple of weeks and you put a different wig 1389 01:06:33,960 --> 01:06:36,160 Speaker 10: on a different thing and be someone else. Terrible accents, 1390 01:06:36,320 --> 01:06:38,600 Speaker 10: terrible acting, a lot of things like that. But it 1391 01:06:38,760 --> 01:06:41,040 Speaker 10: gave us all the taste of that, and I think 1392 01:06:41,120 --> 01:06:43,920 Speaker 10: it was the beginning of New Zealand being seen as 1393 01:06:44,120 --> 01:06:48,560 Speaker 10: a great location, particularly for fantasy staff from overseas. 1394 01:06:48,960 --> 01:06:51,640 Speaker 2: Do excuse my ignorance because I don't know any of 1395 01:06:51,720 --> 01:06:53,560 Speaker 2: the names the people who were coming to apart from 1396 01:06:53,680 --> 01:06:56,720 Speaker 2: Jason Mama, obviously everyone knows whom. But the other people 1397 01:06:56,840 --> 01:07:00,520 Speaker 2: that are coming are they within world? 1398 01:07:01,160 --> 01:07:05,520 Speaker 10: I don't know anyone. So often you you know, I 1399 01:07:05,640 --> 01:07:07,720 Speaker 10: do quite a few of these things, and it's it's 1400 01:07:07,760 --> 01:07:09,560 Speaker 10: like school camp, you know, over the weekend you get 1401 01:07:09,560 --> 01:07:11,480 Speaker 10: a little gang of friends from the guests. 1402 01:07:11,600 --> 01:07:14,440 Speaker 2: You don't underplay it because we had Do you know 1403 01:07:14,520 --> 01:07:17,040 Speaker 2: the name Robert Patrick? Yes, yeah, right, So he does 1404 01:07:17,120 --> 01:07:19,240 Speaker 2: the same thing. So he turns out I'd never meet 1405 01:07:19,320 --> 01:07:20,880 Speaker 2: him either. It turns out to be nice at Gloving. 1406 01:07:21,000 --> 01:07:22,640 Speaker 2: A lot of nice guy in the world. So this 1407 01:07:22,920 --> 01:07:25,439 Speaker 2: this whole thing of going to Armageddon's around the world, 1408 01:07:25,520 --> 01:07:29,040 Speaker 2: this is an industry. It is it's absolutely time industry 1409 01:07:29,080 --> 01:07:30,360 Speaker 2: and it's it is a. 1410 01:07:31,960 --> 01:07:34,920 Speaker 10: I it's easy to be cynical about these things, but 1411 01:07:35,000 --> 01:07:39,240 Speaker 10: they're actually I love them. They're a place where, for 1412 01:07:39,760 --> 01:07:42,800 Speaker 10: all different reasons, people who love a show or a 1413 01:07:42,920 --> 01:07:47,240 Speaker 10: genre of shows come together and you get to meet people. 1414 01:07:47,360 --> 01:07:49,760 Speaker 10: When we make a show, it's it's about the making 1415 01:07:49,800 --> 01:07:51,560 Speaker 10: of the show. Well for me anyway, it's the Carni 1416 01:07:51,640 --> 01:07:54,360 Speaker 10: folk aspect of it. And you you you know, you 1417 01:07:54,560 --> 01:07:59,040 Speaker 10: have a home viewer in mind, but the process for 1418 01:07:59,160 --> 01:08:01,200 Speaker 10: me is all about the making of it and you 1419 01:08:01,480 --> 01:08:03,760 Speaker 10: sometimes you forget that other people out in the world 1420 01:08:03,840 --> 01:08:05,400 Speaker 10: watch it, which is a good thing because it pays 1421 01:08:05,440 --> 01:08:08,360 Speaker 10: our bills. But these events you get to meet people 1422 01:08:08,440 --> 01:08:12,320 Speaker 10: who really love the stuff you've done, and it's it's 1423 01:08:12,400 --> 01:08:14,600 Speaker 10: not an ego thing where you're going, I'm amazing. These 1424 01:08:14,640 --> 01:08:15,960 Speaker 10: people want to meet me. They want to meet you 1425 01:08:16,040 --> 01:08:18,240 Speaker 10: because you are part of some world they love. And 1426 01:08:18,680 --> 01:08:21,160 Speaker 10: with a Lord of the Rings those I'd never read 1427 01:08:21,160 --> 01:08:24,040 Speaker 10: the books as a kid. I didn't know the value 1428 01:08:24,439 --> 01:08:28,240 Speaker 10: of those stories, And twenty years later still people are 1429 01:08:28,280 --> 01:08:31,200 Speaker 10: coming largely for Lord of the Rings stuff. 1430 01:08:31,200 --> 01:08:32,599 Speaker 2: Well, would you have inhabited advice? 1431 01:08:32,680 --> 01:08:32,800 Speaker 18: Do you? 1432 01:08:32,920 --> 01:08:35,880 Speaker 2: Twenty twenty five years ago? Here're some fantastical stuff that 1433 01:08:35,960 --> 01:08:37,680 Speaker 2: could you could be into as an actor. Would you 1434 01:08:37,760 --> 01:08:40,320 Speaker 2: be going, well, that's not really familiar. I've got bitter ideas. 1435 01:08:40,479 --> 01:08:42,760 Speaker 2: Or once you immersed yourself and you couldn't believe your. 1436 01:08:42,760 --> 01:08:45,080 Speaker 10: Luck, we couldn't believe the luck. And also I love 1437 01:08:45,200 --> 01:08:50,880 Speaker 10: those There is something about fantasy worlds that there is 1438 01:08:50,920 --> 01:08:53,840 Speaker 10: something operatic and wonderful. You get to you know, if 1439 01:08:53,880 --> 01:08:55,640 Speaker 10: you're going to hate you really hate, if you're going 1440 01:08:55,720 --> 01:08:58,040 Speaker 10: to love you, really love you, you can really sort 1441 01:08:58,040 --> 01:09:01,080 Speaker 10: of have a good time with it. So I do 1442 01:09:01,439 --> 01:09:03,320 Speaker 10: like those worlds, and you can get it in a 1443 01:09:03,400 --> 01:09:07,280 Speaker 10: realistic setting. Every show has to define its own universe, 1444 01:09:07,320 --> 01:09:09,840 Speaker 10: even if it apparently is this universe, it's not. It's 1445 01:09:09,840 --> 01:09:14,280 Speaker 10: always a universe within the show. And within the fantasy 1446 01:09:14,360 --> 01:09:16,880 Speaker 10: worlds you get to play some really fun stuff. 1447 01:09:17,360 --> 01:09:19,519 Speaker 2: Is it original? And the reason I asked that I 1448 01:09:19,600 --> 01:09:22,040 Speaker 2: read a report the other day post the strike in Hollywood, 1449 01:09:22,479 --> 01:09:23,679 Speaker 2: production's gone down. 1450 01:09:23,800 --> 01:09:26,439 Speaker 10: Terribly exactly eighty percent less exactly so. 1451 01:09:26,520 --> 01:09:29,320 Speaker 2: They don't make. What they are making is all remakes 1452 01:09:29,439 --> 01:09:32,200 Speaker 2: of remakes. There is not an original idea left. Yes, 1453 01:09:32,479 --> 01:09:36,519 Speaker 2: so is what you're doing an original idea or just 1454 01:09:37,000 --> 01:09:38,800 Speaker 2: an offshoot of the same thing. 1455 01:09:38,960 --> 01:09:41,559 Speaker 10: Well, there's the idea that there is no original ideas. 1456 01:09:41,680 --> 01:09:45,080 Speaker 10: It's it's the five stories that we retell. But what 1457 01:09:45,960 --> 01:09:49,880 Speaker 10: has happened is it's I think there's a number of things. 1458 01:09:49,920 --> 01:09:55,280 Speaker 10: There is that sort of eighties happened with it manufacturing. 1459 01:09:55,360 --> 01:09:58,919 Speaker 10: There is an asset stripping going on throughout the studios, 1460 01:09:59,120 --> 01:10:02,400 Speaker 10: and hedge funds own I think it's seventy percent of 1461 01:10:02,520 --> 01:10:04,439 Speaker 10: the studios are owned by hedge funds. Now and hedge 1462 01:10:04,439 --> 01:10:07,200 Speaker 10: funds don't grow anything. They shove ahole lot of capital 1463 01:10:07,240 --> 01:10:10,400 Speaker 10: in somewhere, they strip as much return from that, and 1464 01:10:10,400 --> 01:10:14,960 Speaker 10: then they fack off with their I said, back with 1465 01:10:15,080 --> 01:10:17,639 Speaker 10: their capital, and they leave ruins behind. So we're sort 1466 01:10:17,680 --> 01:10:21,599 Speaker 10: of going through that change. And we're also going through 1467 01:10:21,760 --> 01:10:24,040 Speaker 10: a stage where you pay j Low two hundred million 1468 01:10:24,080 --> 01:10:28,000 Speaker 10: dollars to do five films for Netflix. You don't really 1469 01:10:28,120 --> 01:10:31,200 Speaker 10: care how good they are because it's Netflix. So everyone 1470 01:10:31,320 --> 01:10:33,160 Speaker 10: tunes in that night. I think they had half a 1471 01:10:33,240 --> 01:10:36,960 Speaker 10: billion people tune into some robot thing and you know, 1472 01:10:37,200 --> 01:10:39,439 Speaker 10: she's great. People in it are great. It was terrible, 1473 01:10:39,680 --> 01:10:42,200 Speaker 10: but it doesn't matter because this you don't need them 1474 01:10:42,240 --> 01:10:44,479 Speaker 10: the next night. You just need that one metric to 1475 01:10:44,720 --> 01:10:49,639 Speaker 10: amazing and it's heartbreaking, but I think, you know, there's 1476 01:10:49,680 --> 01:10:51,519 Speaker 10: still some of the most creative people in the world 1477 01:10:51,560 --> 01:10:54,880 Speaker 10: are working out of that place, and they will find 1478 01:10:54,920 --> 01:10:59,080 Speaker 10: a way to make good stories. I think there are 1479 01:10:59,160 --> 01:11:01,400 Speaker 10: still good stories being told, but there's just a lot 1480 01:11:01,439 --> 01:11:02,720 Speaker 10: of drafts at the moment as well. 1481 01:11:03,479 --> 01:11:06,400 Speaker 2: One more question about being a US citizen, will you vote? 1482 01:11:07,000 --> 01:11:11,400 Speaker 2: I well, absolutely, you've decided yes. Yes, Even in California. 1483 01:11:11,439 --> 01:11:14,360 Speaker 2: I suspect I know which way you vote that doesn't 1484 01:11:14,360 --> 01:11:17,519 Speaker 2: really make but in California it's it's a Democrat. 1485 01:11:17,760 --> 01:11:20,240 Speaker 10: I suspect, yeah, my vote will not really alter what 1486 01:11:20,400 --> 01:11:23,040 Speaker 10: California is going to do. But I still the fact 1487 01:11:23,120 --> 01:11:26,320 Speaker 10: that I can vote is an incredibly powerful thing for me. 1488 01:11:26,439 --> 01:11:30,560 Speaker 10: I think, you know, I I wish everywhere it was 1489 01:11:30,600 --> 01:11:33,759 Speaker 10: compulsory to vote, right. I wish people took a vote. 1490 01:11:34,479 --> 01:11:38,080 Speaker 10: The value of a vote to process serious, the process seriously. 1491 01:11:38,120 --> 01:11:38,320 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1492 01:11:38,320 --> 01:11:40,880 Speaker 10: And also, and I absolutely get it there are people 1493 01:11:40,920 --> 01:11:43,880 Speaker 10: who go it doesn't make any difference which way I vote, 1494 01:11:43,920 --> 01:11:45,479 Speaker 10: because there's a whole lot of people who you know, 1495 01:11:46,280 --> 01:11:50,160 Speaker 10: never really benefit. But but for me, it's I love it. 1496 01:11:50,200 --> 01:11:52,200 Speaker 10: I got to vote. I think in more sort of 1497 01:11:52,280 --> 01:11:53,879 Speaker 10: local things last year. 1498 01:11:54,000 --> 01:11:56,040 Speaker 2: Do you vote in props and props? 1499 01:11:56,080 --> 01:11:59,000 Speaker 10: You know I do, But it's so confusing the system 1500 01:11:59,080 --> 01:12:01,920 Speaker 10: there is. You know, whenever there is a Prop fifty five, 1501 01:12:02,560 --> 01:12:05,799 Speaker 10: it's like vote no one to say yes to reject 1502 01:12:06,040 --> 01:12:08,800 Speaker 10: the proposal that you agree with, and you have you 1503 01:12:08,880 --> 01:12:11,640 Speaker 10: know you have to. So there is certain amount of 1504 01:12:11,920 --> 01:12:14,920 Speaker 10: things that you just you find a newspaper that you trust, 1505 01:12:15,240 --> 01:12:18,479 Speaker 10: or you that aligns with your thoughts, and there's a 1506 01:12:18,520 --> 01:12:20,120 Speaker 10: whole lot of you know, the dog you vote for, 1507 01:12:20,160 --> 01:12:23,840 Speaker 10: the dog catcher or the local librarian assistant and stuff. 1508 01:12:23,920 --> 01:12:30,360 Speaker 2: So Carrie would Kerry, you were embracing her in a 1509 01:12:30,400 --> 01:12:34,360 Speaker 2: way that I've really seen.

I was just thinking to myself, 1547 01:14:08,080 --> 01:14:12,200 Speaker 2: how on earth to two such high profile celebrities never 1548 01:14:12,280 --> 01:14:15,240 Speaker 2: cross paths. Well, first of all, he's a celebrity and 1549 01:14:15,280 --> 01:14:18,840 Speaker 2: I'm not. I'm moderately high profile. He's the real deal. 1550 01:14:19,120 --> 01:14:22,439 Speaker 2: But you would be surprised at how few people I know. 1551 01:14:23,720 --> 01:14:26,680 Speaker 2: And it stems largely from the fact I never leave 1552 01:14:26,720 --> 01:14:30,040 Speaker 2: the house, and so I come here in the cover 1553 01:14:30,160 --> 01:14:32,720 Speaker 2: of darkness, I turn on a light, I present to 1554 01:14:32,800 --> 01:14:35,200 Speaker 2: you for three hours, and then I scurry away home, 1555 01:14:36,200 --> 01:14:37,479 Speaker 2: never to be seen for the rest of the day. 1556 01:14:37,479 --> 01:14:41,240 Speaker 2: And that's basically out work rod little as lit as 1557 01:14:41,240 --> 01:14:43,920 Speaker 2: after the news, which is next, here's news talks head been. 1558 01:14:48,000 --> 01:14:51,240 Speaker 1: Setting the news agenda and digging into the issues. Is 1559 01:14:51,320 --> 01:14:56,280 Speaker 1: the Mic Hosking Breakfast with Alveda, Retirement, Communities, Life Your Way, 1560 01:14:56,439 --> 01:14:57,639 Speaker 1: newstg saad been. 1561 01:14:57,760 --> 01:15:00,720 Speaker 2: So it's begun the world of AI and where it 1562 01:15:00,840 --> 01:15:03,000 Speaker 2: goes and what so so what happened was there was 1563 01:15:03,040 --> 01:15:05,559 Speaker 2: this new trend. There's new thing called AI, and we decided, 1564 01:15:05,680 --> 01:15:07,080 Speaker 2: like we do with all trends, that was going to 1565 01:15:07,200 --> 01:15:09,280 Speaker 2: up end the world. We'd all lose our jobs, would 1566 01:15:09,280 --> 01:15:11,120 Speaker 2: be run by robots in the world would no longer 1567 01:15:11,160 --> 01:15:12,880 Speaker 2: be the way we recognized it in about three and 1568 01:15:12,920 --> 01:15:16,080 Speaker 2: a half minutes time. Latest commentary is around the idea 1569 01:15:16,200 --> 01:15:18,320 Speaker 2: that probably none of that's going to happen, that AI 1570 01:15:18,520 --> 01:15:21,679 Speaker 2: is very useful, it's a modern tool. In certain areas, 1571 01:15:21,720 --> 01:15:24,240 Speaker 2: you can do some interesting things with it. More interesting 1572 01:15:24,320 --> 01:15:26,080 Speaker 2: things will develop, but it's not going to up in 1573 01:15:26,200 --> 01:15:28,200 Speaker 2: the world. Then we get round the idea when we 1574 01:15:28,280 --> 01:15:30,559 Speaker 2: were still in the freak out stage as to how 1575 01:15:30,600 --> 01:15:32,640 Speaker 2: governments would handle it. What are these rules? How do 1576 01:15:32,760 --> 01:15:34,920 Speaker 2: we control it? Who runs it, who builds it, why, 1577 01:15:35,040 --> 01:15:37,840 Speaker 2: when and how? And I note yesterday that SAP and 1578 01:15:37,880 --> 01:15:40,679 Speaker 2: we were talking about it with their result. The boss 1579 01:15:40,760 --> 01:15:45,360 Speaker 2: Christian Klein. Europe, he argues, risks falling behind the US 1580 01:15:45,439 --> 01:15:48,400 Speaker 2: and China if it ends up over regulating the sector. 1581 01:15:48,479 --> 01:15:51,360 Speaker 2: If you can, if you only regulate technology in Europe, 1582 01:15:51,960 --> 01:15:54,280 Speaker 2: how can your startups compete against the other startups like 1583 01:15:54,320 --> 01:15:56,760 Speaker 2: in China, Asia and the US. Businesses need a more 1584 01:15:56,840 --> 01:16:00,360 Speaker 2: harmonized pan European approach to pressing is sh Who's like 1585 01:16:00,479 --> 01:16:04,760 Speaker 2: energy crisis, digital transformation, less regulation overall, not more, And 1586 01:16:04,880 --> 01:16:07,760 Speaker 2: so the politics has begun and it's sort of not 1587 01:16:07,880 --> 01:16:09,920 Speaker 2: unlike social media as far as I can work out, 1588 01:16:10,000 --> 01:16:13,560 Speaker 2: if country A regulates, does country B, CD, E and 1589 01:16:13,680 --> 01:16:16,400 Speaker 2: F And if country A regulates but the others don't. 1590 01:16:16,439 --> 01:16:19,759 Speaker 2: Where do you domicile yourself? What rules do you apply, 1591 01:16:20,000 --> 01:16:22,640 Speaker 2: what tax do you pay? And so round and a 1592 01:16:22,680 --> 01:16:24,360 Speaker 2: round we go. So it's another one of those stories. 1593 01:16:24,400 --> 01:16:26,919 Speaker 2: It's well worth following twenty two minutes away from nine. 1594 01:16:27,120 --> 01:16:31,000 Speaker 16: International correspondence with ends in eye insurance, peace of mind 1595 01:16:31,080 --> 01:16:32,040 Speaker 16: for New Zealand business. 1596 01:16:32,280 --> 01:16:35,519 Speaker 7: But can we go on little very good morning to you, Hey, 1597 01:16:35,560 --> 01:16:36,519 Speaker 7: good bonnie, how are you doing? 1598 01:16:36,600 --> 01:16:38,599 Speaker 2: I'm very well? Indeed, so Trump would tell you it's 1599 01:16:38,640 --> 01:16:40,360 Speaker 2: the end of the world. How does this work when 1600 01:16:40,360 --> 01:16:42,559 Speaker 2: a labor candidate or not a candidate but a Labor 1601 01:16:42,720 --> 01:16:45,520 Speaker 2: party member wanders across to the Los Angeles or Philadelphia 1602 01:16:45,600 --> 01:16:48,760 Speaker 2: or Delaware and starts, you know, campaigning away, Where are 1603 01:16:48,840 --> 01:16:50,439 Speaker 2: we at with this? And how I are high up 1604 01:16:50,479 --> 01:16:50,720 Speaker 2: the tree? 1605 01:16:50,800 --> 01:16:51,160 Speaker 12: Does it go. 1606 01:16:53,160 --> 01:16:56,280 Speaker 7: Very very high up the tree? And a real problem 1607 01:16:56,720 --> 01:16:59,160 Speaker 7: and one which will not go away very quickly either. 1608 01:17:00,280 --> 01:17:00,439 Speaker 10: Now. 1609 01:17:00,680 --> 01:17:02,800 Speaker 7: I used to write speeches for the Labor Party and 1610 01:17:02,880 --> 01:17:06,320 Speaker 7: worked in the front bench back in the eighties, and 1611 01:17:06,640 --> 01:17:11,240 Speaker 7: there were people who went from from my neck of 1612 01:17:11,320 --> 01:17:16,280 Speaker 7: the woods over to campaign for Michael Decarcass and Walter 1613 01:17:16,400 --> 01:17:19,280 Speaker 7: Mondale with exactly about the same amount of success as 1614 01:17:19,360 --> 01:17:24,760 Speaker 7: air campaign for Neil kinnockover in our country. But that 1615 01:17:24,880 --> 01:17:29,559 Speaker 7: was a volunteer thing, and you know, people fancied going 1616 01:17:29,640 --> 01:17:31,080 Speaker 7: over to do it and went over and did it. 1617 01:17:31,200 --> 01:17:37,640 Speaker 7: This is very clearly one hundred people who were arranged 1618 01:17:37,800 --> 01:17:42,960 Speaker 7: by the Labor Party in separate spots within the USA, 1619 01:17:43,280 --> 01:17:47,639 Speaker 7: in swing seats and had their accommodation sorted out for them. 1620 01:17:48,080 --> 01:17:53,759 Speaker 7: This was the Labor Party directly interfering in the electoral 1621 01:17:53,840 --> 01:17:58,479 Speaker 7: process of the USA. And I think, you know, Donald 1622 01:17:58,479 --> 01:18:04,200 Speaker 7: Trump is now bought this to the Federal Commission of 1623 01:18:04,280 --> 01:18:08,040 Speaker 7: the Elector on the election, and it is very difficult 1624 01:18:08,080 --> 01:18:11,960 Speaker 7: to see how you could come to any conclusion as 1625 01:18:12,120 --> 01:18:15,439 Speaker 7: to the fact that this wasn't actually outside influence. You 1626 01:18:15,640 --> 01:18:19,759 Speaker 7: imagine if Russia has done this, you know, you imagine 1627 01:18:19,800 --> 01:18:24,040 Speaker 7: what would happen. And it speaks of a couple of things. Firstly, 1628 01:18:25,479 --> 01:18:29,240 Speaker 7: such arrogance on the part of the Labor Party, but 1629 01:18:29,439 --> 01:18:33,599 Speaker 7: also such a lack of political nows on the part 1630 01:18:34,120 --> 01:18:36,960 Speaker 7: of the leadership of the Labor Party that they would 1631 01:18:37,000 --> 01:18:43,040 Speaker 7: go so far to outrage someone who is slightly more 1632 01:18:43,280 --> 01:18:46,160 Speaker 7: likely than not to become the next US president and 1633 01:18:46,320 --> 01:18:48,320 Speaker 7: therefore our closest exactly. 1634 01:18:48,439 --> 01:18:50,400 Speaker 2: So that was my next Well, I've got several questions. Well, 1635 01:18:50,439 --> 01:18:52,360 Speaker 2: let me ask my most pressure on on first, which 1636 01:18:52,439 --> 01:18:55,559 Speaker 2: is what does he do i e. Trump when he wins? 1637 01:18:55,680 --> 01:18:57,479 Speaker 2: And how much trouble is brittain them for this? And 1638 01:18:57,560 --> 01:18:58,479 Speaker 2: he's not a bloke who. 1639 01:18:58,360 --> 01:19:05,400 Speaker 7: Forgets well, I think there was enormous trouble for Great Britain. 1640 01:19:05,439 --> 01:19:08,920 Speaker 7: I mean, it is usually more difficult for the UK 1641 01:19:09,080 --> 01:19:13,160 Speaker 7: to deal with a Democrat administration in the past, particularly 1642 01:19:13,240 --> 01:19:16,240 Speaker 7: on the issue of Ireland, but also even before that, 1643 01:19:16,439 --> 01:19:19,640 Speaker 7: on the issue of colonialism and so on, than it 1644 01:19:19,760 --> 01:19:25,320 Speaker 7: is with a Republican administration. I mean the closest allyship 1645 01:19:25,479 --> 01:19:30,799 Speaker 7: we had was during Margaret satur and Ronald Reagan's eight years, 1646 01:19:30,920 --> 01:19:34,120 Speaker 7: you know, straight from eighty to eighty eight. Then there 1647 01:19:34,240 --> 01:19:36,360 Speaker 7: was there was a common cause. There was a bit 1648 01:19:36,439 --> 01:19:39,920 Speaker 7: of a common cause between Blair and Clinton for a while, 1649 01:19:40,000 --> 01:19:43,320 Speaker 7: and then later oddly between Blair and Bush. But this 1650 01:19:43,520 --> 01:19:46,800 Speaker 7: is a real problem. There are things we need from 1651 01:19:46,880 --> 01:19:53,599 Speaker 7: the USA, you know, including domestic defensive security in Europe 1652 01:19:54,000 --> 01:19:57,880 Speaker 7: at a time when Europe is very febrile, but also 1653 01:19:58,160 --> 01:20:01,720 Speaker 7: trade deals which we hope for and we're hoping to 1654 01:20:01,760 --> 01:20:05,120 Speaker 7: get preferentially from the USA. If I were Donald Trump, 1655 01:20:05,160 --> 01:20:08,840 Speaker 7: I would say, no, stuff it. You know, why should I. 1656 01:20:09,400 --> 01:20:12,680 Speaker 7: You are the far left. Let's disagree with him about that, 1657 01:20:13,280 --> 01:20:15,200 Speaker 7: But that's what he thinks. You are the far left, 1658 01:20:15,479 --> 01:20:17,719 Speaker 7: and you tried to stop me becoming president. Why should 1659 01:20:17,760 --> 01:20:21,400 Speaker 7: I have everything to do with you? And let's not 1660 01:20:21,840 --> 01:20:24,479 Speaker 7: pretend that Donald Trump isn't the kind of man who 1661 01:20:24,520 --> 01:20:25,799 Speaker 7: doesn't take things personally. 1662 01:20:26,040 --> 01:20:29,519 Speaker 2: No, precisely. Hey, I know we'll talk again before the 1663 01:20:29,600 --> 01:20:32,679 Speaker 2: budget itself. But I was reading yesterday a report into 1664 01:20:33,000 --> 01:20:34,879 Speaker 2: one of the things they're looking at doing, these workers' 1665 01:20:34,920 --> 01:20:36,560 Speaker 2: rights and stuff like that, and what text is it? 1666 01:20:36,640 --> 01:20:40,760 Speaker 2: Did They concluded that the workers' rights changes are going 1667 01:20:40,840 --> 01:20:43,599 Speaker 2: to cost about five billion pounds. It may or may 1668 01:20:43,680 --> 01:20:46,080 Speaker 2: not improve things to the tune of three billion pounds. 1669 01:20:46,120 --> 01:20:48,599 Speaker 2: So therefore there's a material cost of the economy. How 1670 01:20:48,720 --> 01:20:53,920 Speaker 2: much Angst and slash excitement slash nervousness is there towards 1671 01:20:53,960 --> 01:20:56,160 Speaker 2: the budget and what may or may not unfold on 1672 01:20:56,240 --> 01:20:57,000 Speaker 2: budget day. 1673 01:20:57,840 --> 01:21:02,719 Speaker 7: This enormous nervousness whose nobody trusts a party the government anymore, 1674 01:21:03,640 --> 01:21:06,840 Speaker 7: enormous nervousness that simply the things they said before they 1675 01:21:06,880 --> 01:21:09,880 Speaker 7: were elected will play no part whatsoever in the budget 1676 01:21:10,320 --> 01:21:13,559 Speaker 7: and the things we will heard trickling through already. Two 1677 01:21:13,680 --> 01:21:18,360 Speaker 7: things particularly which really got my goat. One was that 1678 01:21:19,520 --> 01:21:25,280 Speaker 7: more people from the middle rank of tax in the 1679 01:21:25,400 --> 01:21:28,840 Speaker 7: taxation would be brought into the top rank. That is 1680 01:21:29,040 --> 01:21:32,200 Speaker 7: exactly the wrong thing to do and exactly what they 1681 01:21:32,280 --> 01:21:35,600 Speaker 7: said they wouldn't do. So you're going to raise the 1682 01:21:35,720 --> 01:21:39,000 Speaker 7: taxes for that proportion of the country which is best 1683 01:21:39,160 --> 01:21:42,280 Speaker 7: placed to spend more money in kick stuff the economy, 1684 01:21:42,720 --> 01:21:46,080 Speaker 7: which is still very sluggish. And the second thing was, 1685 01:21:46,439 --> 01:21:49,000 Speaker 7: and you could predict this, that whilst there's going to 1686 01:21:49,000 --> 01:21:52,479 Speaker 7: be a rayed on pensions, the pensions that are raided 1687 01:21:52,600 --> 01:21:55,639 Speaker 7: will not be those in the public sector. And those 1688 01:21:55,680 --> 01:21:58,000 Speaker 7: are the people who voted for labor, of course, but 1689 01:21:58,080 --> 01:22:02,320 Speaker 7: there are also the people who who works fewer hours, 1690 01:22:02,600 --> 01:22:05,479 Speaker 7: get paid more money, take more time off and sit 1691 01:22:05,600 --> 01:22:09,439 Speaker 7: and have longer holidays. And have better pensions, so it 1692 01:22:09,520 --> 01:22:13,479 Speaker 7: will assascerbate the divide between the public sector and the 1693 01:22:13,600 --> 01:22:14,320 Speaker 7: private sector. 1694 01:22:14,520 --> 01:22:16,519 Speaker 2: Yeah, but most excellent weekend. We'll see you next Tuesday. 1695 01:22:16,560 --> 01:22:19,080 Speaker 2: Appreciate I very much. Rod a little out of Britain 1696 01:22:19,080 --> 01:22:20,599 Speaker 2: for us this morning, sixteen to nine. 1697 01:22:21,640 --> 01:22:26,200 Speaker 1: The Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered by 1698 01:22:26,280 --> 01:22:27,080 Speaker 1: News Talks A b. 1699 01:22:27,560 --> 01:22:29,599 Speaker 2: In away from nine just before we leave Britton offcom. 1700 01:22:29,680 --> 01:22:32,200 Speaker 2: Who are the the people who ever see what's going 1701 01:22:32,280 --> 01:22:34,679 Speaker 2: on on social media and the media in general. There's 1702 01:22:34,760 --> 01:22:37,799 Speaker 2: a clear connection there words not mine, between the violent disorder. 1703 01:22:37,840 --> 01:22:39,920 Speaker 2: These are the riots of course, and the raids and 1704 01:22:39,960 --> 01:22:41,840 Speaker 2: the beatings and all the other nonsense that went on 1705 01:22:41,960 --> 01:22:45,320 Speaker 2: out of Southport because all the misinformation flew mainly on 1706 01:22:45,439 --> 01:22:48,240 Speaker 2: social media. But there was a clear connection they've decided, 1707 01:22:48,280 --> 01:22:51,920 Speaker 2: between the violent disorder and the posts on social media 1708 01:22:52,000 --> 01:22:54,680 Speaker 2: and the messaging app. The government's asked the regulator to 1709 01:22:54,760 --> 01:22:59,240 Speaker 2: consider how illegal content and disinformation spread. While the answer 1710 01:22:59,640 --> 01:23:01,519 Speaker 2: was on a feed and off it went DWN Melanie 1711 01:23:01,600 --> 01:23:03,280 Speaker 2: Dawes as the person who does all of this sort 1712 01:23:03,320 --> 01:23:06,960 Speaker 2: of thing for the government. It spread widely and quickly 1713 01:23:07,680 --> 01:23:10,800 Speaker 2: following those stabbings in Southport, most online services did take 1714 01:23:10,880 --> 01:23:13,799 Speaker 2: rapid action, but the responses of some firms were quote uneven, 1715 01:23:14,439 --> 01:23:17,800 Speaker 2: demonstrating the role of the virality and the algorithmic recommendations 1716 01:23:17,840 --> 01:23:21,280 Speaker 2: can play in driving divisive narratives. There was a person 1717 01:23:21,520 --> 01:23:25,760 Speaker 2: that was the woman the other wife of the is 1718 01:23:25,800 --> 01:23:28,680 Speaker 2: he a counselor. He was a Tory counselor and his 1719 01:23:28,840 --> 01:23:31,000 Speaker 2: wife the other day got thrown in jail for two 1720 01:23:31,120 --> 01:23:34,360 Speaker 2: or three years. And you wouldn't look at her twice, 1721 01:23:34,760 --> 01:23:37,839 Speaker 2: you wouldn't. You wouldn't think just a normal, regular, everyday 1722 01:23:38,000 --> 01:23:41,960 Speaker 2: woman from the suburbs. And she was telling people online 1723 01:23:42,000 --> 01:23:45,719 Speaker 2: to burn houses. And it's just like she went mental. 1724 01:23:46,600 --> 01:23:49,120 Speaker 2: And she went mental because she was obviously on some 1725 01:23:49,360 --> 01:23:52,679 Speaker 2: weird algorithm who told her to go mental, and she thought, 1726 01:23:52,720 --> 01:23:54,880 Speaker 2: I know, I think I just might go mental, and 1727 01:23:55,000 --> 01:23:56,640 Speaker 2: off she went. So she's now in jail and got 1728 01:23:56,640 --> 01:23:58,640 Speaker 2: plenty of time to think about it. They played a 1729 01:23:58,680 --> 01:24:01,559 Speaker 2: big part in fanning the flame of disorder. There should 1730 01:24:01,600 --> 01:24:05,000 Speaker 2: be accountability where platforms allowed dangerously to visit content to 1731 01:24:05,040 --> 01:24:07,639 Speaker 2: go unchecked. Well, you know, it's the same old argument. 1732 01:24:07,680 --> 01:24:10,720 Speaker 2: All they've done is work out that social media is 1733 01:24:10,800 --> 01:24:14,760 Speaker 2: dangerous and something needs to be done. But of course, 1734 01:24:14,840 --> 01:24:19,439 Speaker 2: as per usual, nothing is has or was unfortunately turn 1735 01:24:19,479 --> 01:24:20,320 Speaker 2: away from nine. 1736 01:24:20,840 --> 01:24:23,960 Speaker 1: The Mast, Breakfast with the Ranger of a villa. 1737 01:24:25,240 --> 01:24:27,759 Speaker 2: Light away from nine. I officially became sick and tired 1738 01:24:27,800 --> 01:24:30,400 Speaker 2: of the Andrew Bailey story. Yesterday, Laby were trying to 1739 01:24:30,400 --> 01:24:33,200 Speaker 2: relook at litigated and question time for a moment there, 1740 01:24:33,360 --> 01:24:35,439 Speaker 2: I won't bore you with the details. For a moment 1741 01:24:35,640 --> 01:24:40,280 Speaker 2: there it looked like they could potentially if you drew 1742 01:24:40,320 --> 01:24:42,760 Speaker 2: a long enough bow beyond to something between the first 1743 01:24:42,840 --> 01:24:45,360 Speaker 2: second and third transaction between Bailey and the so called 1744 01:24:45,360 --> 01:24:49,519 Speaker 2: offended person, and it sort of fell apart at that 1745 01:24:49,600 --> 01:24:51,719 Speaker 2: particular point. So I thought, I am sick and tired 1746 01:24:51,720 --> 01:24:54,600 Speaker 2: of this, and we've got more important things to think about. Then, unfortunately, 1747 01:24:55,840 --> 01:24:58,880 Speaker 2: Winston Peter stood up and he started accusing Ashaveral of 1748 01:24:59,080 --> 01:25:02,439 Speaker 2: having some relative by marriage. There's a person by marriage 1749 01:25:02,479 --> 01:25:05,679 Speaker 2: really a relative. So if you're talking about conflicts of interests, 1750 01:25:05,680 --> 01:25:07,200 Speaker 2: So if you haven't followed the story, and it's probably 1751 01:25:07,200 --> 01:25:09,439 Speaker 2: not worth following because anything is going anywhere. But it 1752 01:25:09,560 --> 01:25:12,759 Speaker 2: all goes back to Asha Viral and her business chasing 1753 01:25:12,800 --> 01:25:15,639 Speaker 2: around Casey Costello, New Zealand First MP and the heated 1754 01:25:15,680 --> 01:25:18,679 Speaker 2: tobacco products and the tax treatment and the two hundred 1755 01:25:18,680 --> 01:25:21,519 Speaker 2: million dollars. So anyway, my suspicion is Peters is trying 1756 01:25:21,560 --> 01:25:25,720 Speaker 2: to run interference by accusing Verel of having a thus 1757 01:25:25,840 --> 01:25:30,960 Speaker 2: unnamed relative somewhere in the public service that should have 1758 01:25:31,120 --> 01:25:33,960 Speaker 2: declared a conflict of interest when it comes to dealing 1759 01:25:34,040 --> 01:25:37,360 Speaker 2: with paperwork on the business of tobacco products, and they 1760 01:25:37,439 --> 01:25:40,080 Speaker 2: have not declared. Apparently this particular conflict of interest in 1761 01:25:40,160 --> 01:25:42,599 Speaker 2: the Labour Party argues because the persons so far removed 1762 01:25:42,640 --> 01:25:45,280 Speaker 2: from it, there's no point. Part of their argument also 1763 01:25:45,400 --> 01:25:47,839 Speaker 2: is New Zealand such a small country. Everybody knows everybody, 1764 01:25:47,880 --> 01:25:49,600 Speaker 2: which is not technically true, but it can be. 1765 01:25:50,120 --> 01:25:52,160 Speaker 9: It's like you can name a hotelco two degrees. 1766 01:25:52,360 --> 01:25:55,400 Speaker 2: This is very true, and then we can we come 1767 01:25:55,479 --> 01:25:57,720 Speaker 2: to the person. So the person is a relative of 1768 01:25:57,880 --> 01:26:01,320 Speaker 2: Viral's by marriage. My question is does that make them 1769 01:26:01,320 --> 01:26:02,000 Speaker 2: a real relative? 1770 01:26:02,040 --> 01:26:03,680 Speaker 9: And there's always a bit confusing, isn't it so like 1771 01:26:03,800 --> 01:26:07,800 Speaker 9: say your brother, yeah, is married, and then so that 1772 01:26:08,000 --> 01:26:09,320 Speaker 9: woman is your sister in law? 1773 01:26:09,439 --> 01:26:11,519 Speaker 10: Correct, But then what about if she's got. 1774 01:26:11,439 --> 01:26:16,040 Speaker 9: A brother, who is that person to you? Nothing apparently correct, 1775 01:26:16,120 --> 01:26:17,720 Speaker 9: even though you want to sort of say, well, he's 1776 01:26:17,760 --> 01:26:18,559 Speaker 9: kind of my brother in law. 1777 01:26:18,600 --> 01:26:20,320 Speaker 2: Well, he's not kind of your brother in law. He's nothing. 1778 01:26:20,479 --> 01:26:21,719 Speaker 9: Is he related to you by marriage? 1779 01:26:21,760 --> 01:26:22,200 Speaker 16: Though? No? 1780 01:26:22,600 --> 01:26:26,479 Speaker 2: Well then directly and hen silized the problem. The fact 1781 01:26:26,520 --> 01:26:30,080 Speaker 2: that her relative is a person who was married to 1782 01:26:30,160 --> 01:26:30,959 Speaker 2: someone makes. 1783 01:26:30,760 --> 01:26:31,120 Speaker 12: It to me. 1784 01:26:32,439 --> 01:26:34,120 Speaker 9: I mean what I was asking is are you your 1785 01:26:34,160 --> 01:26:36,519 Speaker 9: own grandfather's uncle? I think is what I was trying 1786 01:26:36,520 --> 01:26:36,720 Speaker 9: to get. 1787 01:26:36,760 --> 01:26:39,800 Speaker 2: It isn't everybody? Is the answer to that? Surely five 1788 01:26:39,840 --> 01:26:41,040 Speaker 2: minutes away from nine. 1789 01:26:42,400 --> 01:26:47,240 Speaker 1: Now with the Wews your Home of Sports and Nutrition, were. 1790 01:26:47,120 --> 01:26:48,880 Speaker 2: You laughing at your joke so much you didn't do 1791 01:26:48,960 --> 01:26:49,400 Speaker 2: that properly. 1792 01:26:50,120 --> 01:26:51,880 Speaker 9: I pushed all the buttons at once just to see 1793 01:26:51,880 --> 01:26:52,439 Speaker 9: what would happen to. 1794 01:26:52,439 --> 01:26:52,880 Speaker 2: Do it again. 1795 01:26:54,120 --> 01:26:59,120 Speaker 1: Trending now with Chemist Wells keeping Kiwi's healthy all year round. 1796 01:26:59,360 --> 01:27:01,640 Speaker 2: Him was where pay real good money for that?

And at that level you 1832 01:28:46,160 --> 01:28:49,519 Speaker 2: probably think he's you know, he's okay. Anyway, here's the 1833 01:28:49,560 --> 01:28:52,320 Speaker 2: point of all of that. Somebody said to me yesterday. 1834 01:28:52,360 --> 01:28:54,280 Speaker 2: I think they're probably right. If you look at your 1835 01:28:54,360 --> 01:28:57,599 Speaker 2: Elon's and your Trump's and you Tucker Carlson's and all 1836 01:28:57,640 --> 01:29:00,280 Speaker 2: those right Lenas at the moment, one of the things 1837 01:29:00,320 --> 01:29:01,960 Speaker 2: that they seem to have in common, as they're having 1838 01:29:02,000 --> 01:29:06,120 Speaker 2: a good time, often you will see them laughing, perhaps 1839 01:29:06,200 --> 01:29:08,519 Speaker 2: insanely because many of them are. 1840 01:29:08,600 --> 01:29:09,439 Speaker 9: But nightly. 1841 01:29:09,720 --> 01:29:13,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I actually it's like a dictator exactly. They're 1842 01:29:13,560 --> 01:29:15,920 Speaker 2: having a good time. The Dems are not having a 1843 01:29:15,960 --> 01:29:19,919 Speaker 2: good time. The Dims look miserable, and in that might ultimately, 1844 01:29:20,040 --> 01:29:25,639 Speaker 2: of course, be their problem.
