Our military 6 00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:18,159 Speaker 2: is being sent to Korea, though as the area hots up, 7 00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:20,640 Speaker 2: We've got field days ago, com Coms had a look 8 00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:22,520 Speaker 2: at the old petrol prices. Jinny and Mark do the 9 00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:25,479 Speaker 2: Politics after eight o'clock and Richard Darley Steve Price Player, Well, 10 00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:31,960 Speaker 2: wait the listen. It is seven past rock Sky Now. 11 00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:34,040 Speaker 2: Of all the change that's unfolding in the country as 12 00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:35,960 Speaker 2: the new government tries to dig us out of the 13 00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:38,159 Speaker 2: hole left by the last lot, the bit that has 14 00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:40,680 Speaker 2: surprised me more than most is there's fast track law. 15 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:43,680 Speaker 2: In the opposition to it, there were protests over the weekend. Protests. 16 00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:46,080 Speaker 2: I mean, it's it's one thing to bring talkback or 17 00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:48,240 Speaker 2: maybe even put a submission into a select committee or 18 00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:50,640 Speaker 2: writer report that condemns it. But a protest, a whole protest, 19 00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:52,760 Speaker 2: I get, I mean, I get what they're not happy with. 20 00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:55,880 Speaker 2: They can't hold stuff up the way they used to 21 00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:58,560 Speaker 2: are the forest and birds. The single issue crazies who 22 00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:00,920 Speaker 2: have no lack of desire to hire lawlawyers and jurymanner 23 00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:03,280 Speaker 2: the system to bend it to their way. The fact 24 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:06,600 Speaker 2: their way is counterproductive to the way most of us 25 00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 2: want seems to be of no interest to them. The 26 00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:10,600 Speaker 2: evidence as to how we got here is littered all 27 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,160 Speaker 2: over the country. The things we haven't done, the broken 28 00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:15,240 Speaker 2: bits the road to the bridges, the projects that take 29 00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:17,760 Speaker 2: years longer than they need to, the reality of simply 30 00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:21,280 Speaker 2: getting to the start line taking years longer than we 31 00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:23,399 Speaker 2: need to. It's all down to the regulation that was 32 00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:25,959 Speaker 2: the Resource Management Act and the dangerous bits that give 33 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 2: people who don't want things done not to say. I mean, 34 00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 2: having a say isn't the issue. It's the power, it's 35 00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 2: the legal redress. It's the ability to exhaust every angle 36 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 2: to stop things being done that's been the danger. The 37 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,959 Speaker 2: fact this country infrastructurally and therefore economically is broken and 38 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:44,200 Speaker 2: hobbled is why we are here. It is time to 39 00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:46,679 Speaker 2: get stuff under way. It's time to tip the balance, 40 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 2: it's time to get on with it. There are still 41 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 2: safeguards in place, these expert groups advising ministers, but what 42 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 2: can't be in dispute. Is the parlor state we're in, 43 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:57,880 Speaker 2: And yet despite that, a few hard liners want more. 44 00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:00,840 Speaker 2: Where that came from. Stagnation is their care card, which 45 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 2: is selfish, it's my opic, it's a waste of your weekend. 46 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 2: I'm on the side of those who want to get 47 00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:09,359 Speaker 2: on with it. And guess what that side is. It's 48 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:13,440 Speaker 2: the majority. And in a democracy, the majority wins. 49 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 3: News of the world in ninety seconds. 50 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:20,000 Speaker 2: Now from not really surprised, file Hunter's guilty, so there 51 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 2: is there an appeal? Is he going to jail? 52 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 4: It ranges all the way from probation with some conditions 53 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 4: of probation such as drug treatment, to prison Time's not 54 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 4: usual to give prison time to a first offenders. 55 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:36,799 Speaker 2: I did look a bit open and shut back. 56 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:41,679 Speaker 5: Pasters brought him devastating details of his drug use, so 57 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 5: the addiction, his inability to clean, how he was using 58 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:48,560 Speaker 5: crack cocaine almost every twenty minutes. 59 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,400 Speaker 2: Yeah to the UK rice where we've got new polling 60 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 2: for you shortly, but on the trail, Russie's now offering 61 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 2: tax cuts, which is better than what labor are offering. 62 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:56,399 Speaker 6: Now. 63 00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:58,920 Speaker 7: I know Labour have been taking inspiration from one of 64 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:02,280 Speaker 7: Brad Pitt's most famous films. The first rule of labor 65 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 7: tax rises is that you don't talk about tax rises labor. 66 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:07,920 Speaker 2: I'm beck with warnings though. 67 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:11,919 Speaker 8: We know where these sorts of unfunded promises from Conservative 68 00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 8: Party prime ministers lead, leaving you and your family worse off. 69 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 8: The money is not there and it will mean four 70 00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:23,320 Speaker 8: eight hundred pounds on your mortgage. 71 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 2: Meantime, Nigel of Reform has had some concrete throwner them. 72 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 9: It is actually an affront to the very idea of 73 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:32,640 Speaker 9: democratic debate. Look, you know I'm not a softie. You 74 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,120 Speaker 9: know you can say what you bullomin like to me. 75 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 9: Do you start chucking cement at me or stuck chucking 76 00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 9: stones at me? It's very, very different. 77 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 2: And the end of the year erise where it's not 78 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 2: all about the football but the yobs in the potential 79 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 2: trouble they bring. 80 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 6: English supporters have a reputation for getting drunk, being noisy, 81 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:52,440 Speaker 6: traveling in huge numbers, traveling without tickets, and at times 82 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 6: singing obnoxious songs. But the days in which they used 83 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 6: to come and tear up towns and attack people. 84 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 2: Along therest of noxious songs. Finally, more proof the ultra 85 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 2: process plant based foods are not good for you. So 86 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:08,120 Speaker 2: we have a study this morning from Aston Medical School 87 00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 2: in Birmingham that's found that eating plant based foods raised 88 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 2: bad cholesterol. Also high pertension can lead to heart disease 89 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 2: and increase of five percent and an increase in the 90 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:19,480 Speaker 2: odds of an early death by thirteen percent. Still studying 91 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:22,040 Speaker 2: the meatless meat options, though for just how much much 92 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 2: risk is associated with those particular products use the world 93 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 2: in ninety seconds. By the way, speaking of Rischie, the 94 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:30,640 Speaker 2: unemployment rate's gone up. Good for the Bank of England, 95 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:32,479 Speaker 2: not good for Rishie, gone from four point three to 96 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:34,920 Speaker 2: four point four. Wages are still booming and that is 97 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:37,360 Speaker 2: a major problem for the Bank of England. Wage growth 98 00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 2: excluding bonus is held at six percent, and very good 99 00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:43,039 Speaker 2: news from Baltimore. And you know I've been all over this. 100 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 2: I mean, we all got fascinated for about three and 101 00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:46,240 Speaker 2: a half minutes when the ship ran into the bridge 102 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 2: and the bridge fell over, but we then forgot about 103 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 2: the story. The Francis Key Bridge has still falling over 104 00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:52,280 Speaker 2: and the day is still a mess. But nevertheless, the 105 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:55,839 Speaker 2: shipping channel in Baltimore as of this morning is back 106 00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 2: open twelve past. 107 00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:01,720 Speaker 3: Six, the Make Costing breakf very good news is. 108 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:04,720 Speaker 2: Celebrating in Norway Rare Earth Norway, which is a company 109 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:08,920 Speaker 2: they found and confirmed Europe's largest proven deposit of rare 110 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 2: earth elements. Now why is that important? Because of rare 111 00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:13,039 Speaker 2: earths are needed and things like you know that the 112 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 2: whole renewable business and evs and stuff like that. But 113 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 2: it's one of the few deposits not owned or controlled 114 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:19,800 Speaker 2: by China, and up until this point, China has been 115 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:22,040 Speaker 2: a problem in that department. So it's good. Fifteen past 116 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:27,480 Speaker 2: six from my wife Andrew Keller. He very good morning 117 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:27,839 Speaker 2: for you. 118 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:29,640 Speaker 10: Yeah, very good morning. 119 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:32,599 Speaker 2: Mike can write trochometer light and heavy. What are we seeing? 120 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:36,640 Speaker 11: Yeah, financial markets around the world, Mike, we're all in 121 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 11: wait and ce mode for this FED to come to 122 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:43,119 Speaker 11: the party tomorrow morning. Certainly more potential for volatility without 123 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,920 Speaker 11: CPI being released on the same day. In the meantime, Yeah, 124 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 11: we're going to check the car and truck count here. 125 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 10: Maybe is KNOWLM. 126 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:52,320 Speaker 11: So what's happening on the roads? What conclusions can we. 127 00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:52,880 Speaker 12: Make from that? 128 00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:56,880 Speaker 11: Well, the light traffic index, it fell zero point four 129 00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:59,919 Speaker 11: per cent month on month, So just to recap this 130 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 11: light traffic, and that gives you a feel for the 131 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 11: state of demand in the economy, not production. And the 132 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:09,479 Speaker 11: logic here is that, you know, variation or changes in 133 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 11: the light traffic number reflects you know, discretionary spending, are 134 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:14,640 Speaker 11: you prepared to go on a trip? And the movement 135 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 11: of careers. 136 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:15,680 Speaker 3: That sort of thing. 137 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 11: Look, the trend is flat but downwards in per capita terms, 138 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 11: which means it looks and feels a little bit like GDP, 139 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 11: doesn't it? Heavy traffic better read on production? GDP negative 140 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 11: for the month that fell two point three percent, which 141 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:30,480 Speaker 11: is quite a chunky fall. 142 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:31,919 Speaker 13: Look at it. 143 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 11: We might have got a positive signal out of the 144 00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 11: heavy traffic index for Q one for the first quarter, 145 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 11: not on a per capita basis, of course. But if 146 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:41,159 Speaker 11: I sort of take a wee step back and I 147 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 11: look at the long term trends here, you've got this 148 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:47,719 Speaker 11: obvious pandemic disruption. But the pattern we're seeing now, Mike, 149 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:51,680 Speaker 11: looks awfully increasingly like what we saw in the GFC, 150 00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:53,720 Speaker 11: which is a sobering thwart. 151 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 3: Isn't it. 152 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:55,840 Speaker 2: Yes, that's the truth. And then we come to Tower, 153 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 2: who had, thank good Lord, some good news. 154 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:01,120 Speaker 11: Yes, so one winner the internets at the moment where 155 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:03,120 Speaker 11: there is there may be others, but there are few 156 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:07,359 Speaker 11: and far between. As insurance company, Towers delivered another positive 157 00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 11: profit guidance, which comes amid a sort of a slew 158 00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 11: of negative guidance warnings that we're getting from other internex companies. 159 00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 11: And we're seeing this continued and under performance of the 160 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:21,200 Speaker 11: intersects compared to other indexes. And I monitor these numbers 161 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 11: and at the end of every week. You know, so 162 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 11: far this year, the Internets fifty is up just over 163 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:27,120 Speaker 11: one percent, but I look at the S and P 164 00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 11: five hundred it's up to thirteen percent. The Aussies there 165 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 11: up five point three percent, the NASDAK fourteen and a half. 166 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:37,440 Speaker 11: So very disappointing results from the local market so far 167 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:40,280 Speaker 11: this year. But back to Tower now, Mike, when you've 168 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:42,760 Speaker 11: been this game a long time, one of the trends 169 00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 11: you bous is what I call the law of recurring warnings. 170 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 11: And by that I mean if a company gives the 171 00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 11: earnings downgrade, you tend to brace yourself for the next one. 172 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 11: And once you get a couple, there's all sorts of 173 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 11: warning does ing. But it works the other way too, Mike, 174 00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:59,280 Speaker 11: and I do feel like we've talked about Tower before, 175 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:01,840 Speaker 11: because well we have. We talked about it in April, 176 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:04,160 Speaker 11: and we talked about it in May, and now we 177 00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:07,880 Speaker 11: have the trifector of another positive earnings guidance announcement. So 178 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:10,480 Speaker 11: there's nothing downbeat about Tower at the moment. So net 179 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:12,240 Speaker 11: profit after tax and now saying is going to be 180 00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:16,239 Speaker 11: another five million dollars higher. They're referring to a positive 181 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:21,360 Speaker 11: trading environment and most importantly benign weather because the threshold 182 00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 11: for large events has not been met. The weather's been 183 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:26,680 Speaker 11: pretty good. But the thing think about this, might it 184 00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:29,720 Speaker 11: could get even better for them this financial We just 185 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:32,440 Speaker 11: they've got this forty five million dollar what they call 186 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:35,760 Speaker 11: it large events allowance sitting there on the side. Now 187 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 11: there haven't been any of those large events, and if 188 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 11: they don't have any large events so it doesn't get used. 189 00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:43,080 Speaker 11: They had that back into net profits, so it would 190 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:46,439 Speaker 11: boost net profit by the forty five million, less tax 191 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 11: another thirty two million, So could get even better for them. 192 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:49,840 Speaker 11: You never know. 193 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 2: Across the Tasman for me because things are looking in 194 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:54,960 Speaker 2: Chris I's reading something about the fashion industry and that 195 00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:57,040 Speaker 2: part of the world. Not to mention hospitality, but the 196 00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:59,560 Speaker 2: old confidence is slipped, isn't it well? 197 00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 11: At hands? This is the NAB business confidence which has 198 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 11: slipped into negative territory in May. So they're basically now 199 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 11: starting to see conditionings softening. Remember they've just released their 200 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:12,640 Speaker 11: first quarter GDP. It was the lowest level of GDPENT 201 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,120 Speaker 11: growed in decades. Some fear now that the slowdown will 202 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:18,199 Speaker 11: step into the second quarter. So you're now seeing confidence 203 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:23,080 Speaker 11: falling quite sharply, and things like manufacturing in transport, utilities, construction. 204 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:25,560 Speaker 11: So they've got a few there's a few dark clouds 205 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 11: on the horizon for the Aussies as well. It's not 206 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:27,839 Speaker 11: just us. 207 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:28,800 Speaker 10: We're going to sweat. 208 00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 11: We're going to We're going to we're going to sort 209 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:32,640 Speaker 11: of share the misery around like that's what we're going 210 00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 11: to do. 211 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:36,560 Speaker 2: What are the numbers right now? 212 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 11: The Dow Jones ahead of this fent announcement to my 213 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:41,440 Speaker 11: the Dow Jones is down one hundred and sixty six points, 214 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:44,600 Speaker 11: which is zero point four to three within thirty eight thousand, 215 00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 11: seven hundred and two. The S and P five hundred 216 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:49,640 Speaker 11: hasn't moved at all five thy three hundred and sixty. 217 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 11: The Nazak seventeen thousand, two hundred and seventy nine. That's 218 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 11: up eighty seven, so that's half a point rally, half 219 00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:58,439 Speaker 11: a percent rally there. The forty one hundred lost about 220 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 11: one percent overnight eight one four seven. Then Nick was 221 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:04,720 Speaker 11: up a quarter of a percent. I was closing at 222 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 11: thirty nine thousand, one hundred and thirty four. The Shanghai 223 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 11: confer that lost three quarters of percent. Yesdo three oh 224 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:11,679 Speaker 11: too eight.

That Barbie was special 241 00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 2: because he had a real buy him a necklace. That's 242 00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 2: old at Christie's three hundred and two thousand dollars, so 243 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:06,440 Speaker 2: it's been smashed. The rocket fit was part of a 244 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:09,560 Speaker 2: male giveaway promotion from the maker of the toy to Kenner. 245 00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:12,360 Speaker 2: Under the promotion, anyone who provided a proof of purchasing 246 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 2: four Star Wars action figures would be mail the bobber 247 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 2: Fit figure that had a rocket launcher on its back. 248 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 2: But but Kenner decided to attach the rocket to the 249 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 2: toy because it posed a choking hazard, so the figure 250 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:30,400 Speaker 2: came with a note to customers, so no rocket firing 251 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:32,360 Speaker 2: toys were actually evern mailed out. So a number of 252 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 2: the staff grabbed the toys with the rocket firing feature 253 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 2: took them home. 254 00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 3: That's it sounds suspicious to me. 255 00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:42,200 Speaker 14: I clearly remember having a friend he had one of 256 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:45,320 Speaker 14: these things. You could fire a rocket off, as we 257 00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 14: used to play with it all the time. 258 00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:49,200 Speaker 2: Bring it out.

It's all telling basically the same story. 264 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:10,719 Speaker 2: If the projections are correct, the Conservatives go down to 265 00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 2: one hundred and forty seats. Labour get four hundred and 266 00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 2: twenty two best ever biggest majorities in Stanley Baldwin back 267 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:20,720 Speaker 2: in nineteen twenty four, the Tories would lose two hundred 268 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:22,640 Speaker 2: and thirty two seats, Labor would pick up two hundred 269 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 2: and twenty two. The lib D MS forty in the 270 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:28,240 Speaker 2: SMP thirty would lose thirty one. The whole things are shambles, Lollie, Mike, 271 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:31,560 Speaker 2: I might have this wrong, but I thought council rates 272 00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:34,760 Speaker 2: could only go up by the rate of inflation. You 273 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:38,319 Speaker 2: couldn't have it more wrong if you tried, Mike, how's 274 00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:40,760 Speaker 2: it council rates go up eighteen percent and claim better 275 00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 2: than thirty percent like they originally stated, how do we 276 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:46,800 Speaker 2: sell eighteen, we say it's thirty. I'm increasingly suspicious that 277 00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:49,080 Speaker 2: that's the case in a number of council cases. Sex 278 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 2: twenty five. 279 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 1: Trending now with chemist Wells keeping Kiwi's healthy all year round. 280 00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:58,559 Speaker 2: Right, Netflix, they're in the business for the chasing the 281 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:02,080 Speaker 2: world's fastest man.

And in the world where 302 00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 2: media is being talked about so much these days in 303 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 2: a negative way, someone somewhere, increasingly a whole group of 304 00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:14,679 Speaker 2: them have worked out sports the answer got a big 305 00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:16,760 Speaker 2: deal signed this move, got record numbers for the other 306 00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 2: women's basketball in America.

And so sport is where 309 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 2: the action is at. I keep trying to explain this, 310 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:29,240 Speaker 2: and this is why it's so depressing that rugby is 311 00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:32,040 Speaker 2: where it is, because the whole world is into sport 312 00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:34,160 Speaker 2: in a major, major way at the moment.

Pete, 330 00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:20,960 Speaker 2: thank you for that. And it's an interesting thing. Isn't 331 00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:22,720 Speaker 2: a lot of companies these days walk a very fine 332 00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:25,040 Speaker 2: line on success. It's wonderful to go look look at 333 00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:27,320 Speaker 2: our profit guidance, look at our dividend, look at our profit, 334 00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:29,640 Speaker 2: look at how good it could be. But who's paying 335 00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 2: for it? Twenty three minutes away from seven. 336 00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:34,080 Speaker 3: Right. 337 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:36,480 Speaker 2: Speaking of the economy in numbers, new numbers this morning 338 00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 2: around how we're handling the cost of living crisis. Kiwibanks 339 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:41,560 Speaker 2: and your State of Savings Index has found that one 340 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 2: in three of us would struggle with paying an unexpected 341 00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 2: five hundred dollars bill. Thirty nine percent of us are 342 00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 2: saving less than one hundred dollars a month. The Kibank 343 00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:50,960 Speaker 2: chief executive Steve Yukovic's back with us. Steve, very good 344 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 2: morning to you. When you look at the picture versus 345 00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:57,000 Speaker 2: I don't know the COVID era of the GFC any 346 00:15:57,040 --> 00:15:59,560 Speaker 2: regular time. What's this picture tell us bad? Good or 347 00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:02,120 Speaker 2: in different bad lot? 348 00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:05,360 Speaker 17: People are doing it very tough and particularly we've seen 349 00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:08,800 Speaker 17: that more than six times more likely the reason that 350 00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:10,800 Speaker 17: people would bring us up and stay they've got problems 351 00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:13,480 Speaker 17: is cost of living. Historically that would have been the 352 00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:16,200 Speaker 17: top three reasons would have been lost, my job, got divorced, 353 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:18,680 Speaker 17: or have got an illness. So it does really show 354 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:20,720 Speaker 17: that there's been a big shift with the where the 355 00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:21,560 Speaker 17: strugglers that. 356 00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:23,880 Speaker 2: Thirty nine percent saving less than one hundred dollars a month. 357 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 2: Does that reflect to your customer profile? Would it be 358 00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:27,880 Speaker 2: different at different banks or we don't know. 359 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:31,400 Speaker 17: No, this is a sample of all of New Zealanders, 360 00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:33,360 Speaker 17: though it's absolutely respective of everyone. 361 00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:34,800 Speaker 2: That's depressing, isn't. 362 00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:36,120 Speaker 11: It It is? 363 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:39,200 Speaker 17: It shows just how hard it is for people. I mean, 364 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:41,520 Speaker 17: the encouraging thing is, you know, sixty percent of us 365 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:45,360 Speaker 17: have a monthly budget, but obviously budgets so driven by 366 00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:48,160 Speaker 17: you know, what you've got as a surplus, so you know. 367 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:50,040 Speaker 17: I mean, I think the short story is being able 368 00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:52,120 Speaker 17: to put anything away as soon as you can is 369 00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:54,960 Speaker 17: absolutely the best idea. The thing that really struck me 370 00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:58,240 Speaker 17: might was a one off cost and not being able 371 00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:01,280 Speaker 17: to meet that without borrowing or selling something. You know, 372 00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 17: that could be failing a warrant or needing new tires 373 00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:05,960 Speaker 17: for your car, which might impact you being able to 374 00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:07,760 Speaker 17: get to work. So it does show that people are 375 00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:09,080 Speaker 17: getting close to the line and. 376 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 2: These are working New Zealand does aren't they? In general? 377 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:13,919 Speaker 2: I mean most that these are people who get an income, 378 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:16,560 Speaker 2: go to work and you would think can tread at 379 00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:17,720 Speaker 2: least tread water. 380 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:21,159 Speaker 17: Yep, very much so. And you know, indicative of a 381 00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:23,840 Speaker 17: whole lot of people. I mean the other depressing part 382 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:27,480 Speaker 17: of it and confronting factors that women do. You know, like, hey, 383 00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:29,880 Speaker 17: we say to do much worse in the situation as well, 384 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:32,600 Speaker 17: So you know there's some things to steer into there. 385 00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly is it the big bills that like the 386 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:36,880 Speaker 2: mortgage that's killing most people? In other words, we would 387 00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 2: say more than one hundred dollars if the mortgage hadn't 388 00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:39,080 Speaker 2: gone up. 389 00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:40,080 Speaker 12: Yep. 390 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:41,879 Speaker 17: I think so. Also the things that you I mean 391 00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:45,280 Speaker 17: I've heard you talk about this previously. You know, insurance premiums, 392 00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:47,879 Speaker 17: those sorts of things. Rates, they're not choices that you 393 00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:50,880 Speaker 17: can make to sort of cut back on without big consequences, 394 00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:54,000 Speaker 17: and so people are really trying to you know, face 395 00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:57,080 Speaker 17: into meeting the bills they can while recognizing they're going 396 00:17:57,119 --> 00:17:59,679 Speaker 17: to have to spend less on entertainment or hospitality. On 397 00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:01,360 Speaker 17: recent we've really seen a cut back there. 398 00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:03,480 Speaker 2: See, here's the really interesting thing for me. So we're 399 00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:05,520 Speaker 2: talking about Adrian or we're talking about cuts, maybe not 400 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 2: until next year. An Z's just there forecast until maybe February. 401 00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:12,399 Speaker 2: But even then, if it comes, it's the cuts. If 402 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:14,400 Speaker 2: you're only saving one hundred dollars or less a month, 403 00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:17,879 Speaker 2: we're a long way away from getting back to anywhere 404 00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:20,600 Speaker 2: near what many people would regard as normalcy, aren't we. 405 00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:23,359 Speaker 17: Here we are, and I think that's what you have 406 00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:25,199 Speaker 17: to think about. You know, we've certainly we've done some 407 00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:28,360 Speaker 17: research in you know, there's lots of articles around. We're 408 00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:31,440 Speaker 17: seeing a lot more people fixing their mortgages for shorter terms, 409 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:32,880 Speaker 17: and the hope that the rates are going to come 410 00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 17: down really important people work through, you know, how long 411 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:39,280 Speaker 17: the cuts would need to happen for before you actually 412 00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:42,639 Speaker 17: net better off. But look, I think a cut and 413 00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:45,320 Speaker 17: interest rates will be really good for people's confidence. I 414 00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 17: think people were really shocked by you know, that sort 415 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:50,080 Speaker 17: of out of the box rate call out it might 416 00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:52,399 Speaker 17: go up. Those sorts of things really put a lot 417 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:54,600 Speaker 17: of pressure on people. So I think while it won't 418 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:57,240 Speaker 17: be a huge savings I think a cut hopefully later 419 00:18:57,320 --> 00:18:59,320 Speaker 17: this year, will be It is. 420 00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:01,359 Speaker 2: That what you're bank saying still later this year as 421 00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:02,240 Speaker 2: opposed to next year? 422 00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 17: Yeah, we are, We're still calling it later in the year, 423 00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:08,600 Speaker 17: but I mean everyone's shifted to early twenty five mainly, 424 00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:10,720 Speaker 17: so look at you know, if it's late in the year, 425 00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:13,359 Speaker 17: it's probably going to be November and probably going to 426 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:14,200 Speaker 17: be twenty five points. 427 00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:16,440 Speaker 2: All right, mate, go well, appreciate it.

He is, 500 00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:11,439 Speaker 23: of course, just back from France, where he was also 501 00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:15,000 Speaker 23: asked about the prospect of a presidential pardon in this 502 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:16,240 Speaker 23: particular instance, and he. 503 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:18,399 Speaker 22: Replied, I don't know that we live in a Christian 504 00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:19,760 Speaker 22: that this. 505 00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:21,840 Speaker 23: Was something that he would not consider. There would be 506 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:24,879 Speaker 23: no pardon, he said, So that ruled out when it 507 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:26,920 Speaker 23: comes to Donald Trump. He spent his latest rally in 508 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:29,439 Speaker 23: Las Vegas slamming the judge in his trial, the very 509 00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:33,200 Speaker 23: judge who will decide on July the eleventh on his sentencing, 510 00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:35,840 Speaker 23: a devil. He called him who oversaw a rig case 511 00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:39,240 Speaker 23: and is a certified Trump hater. So we'll contrast the 512 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:44,040 Speaker 23: comments sections here. Hunter Biden could face up to twenty 513 00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:46,720 Speaker 23: five years in prison. That outcome quite unlikely. It's ten 514 00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:49,520 Speaker 23: years for each individual count for the three of them 515 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:52,840 Speaker 23: for a first offense where no underlying crime has committed. 516 00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:54,200 Speaker 22: Many things jail time unlikely. 517 00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:57,480 Speaker 23: He still faces other legal challenges on going, including tax 518 00:23:57,520 --> 00:23:59,920 Speaker 23: issues and so on. Some Republicans still are railing of 519 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,680 Speaker 23: a Hunter Biden, saying it's a sweetheart deal he's getting. 520 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:06,960 Speaker 23: Does nothing to get to what they call without any evidence, 521 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:10,119 Speaker 23: the Biden crime family so ongoes to politics. As to 522 00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:13,560 Speaker 23: the Jura, several are speaking out. One jury member during 523 00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 23: number ten says the Duras initially was split six to six. 524 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:20,520 Speaker 23: Then after a night's sleep, this particular Dura says, they 525 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 23: all came together on the guilty findings. As to the 526 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:26,600 Speaker 23: connection with the president, that particular Dura says. 527 00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:30,200 Speaker 24: No politics came into play, and politics was not even 528 00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:35,600 Speaker 24: spoken about. The first family was not even spoken about 529 00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:37,680 Speaker 24: it all. It was all about Hunter. 530 00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:37,959 Speaker 13: Well. 531 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:40,760 Speaker 23: The trial certainly was humiliating, with Hunter Biden's four year 532 00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:44,240 Speaker 23: crack addiction laid bare, along with its devastating effects on 533 00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:47,000 Speaker 23: his family. In his own memoir and the audiobook version 534 00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:49,879 Speaker 23: of it, Hunter Biden spoke in excruciating terms about his 535 00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:50,560 Speaker 23: drug use. 536 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:54,840 Speaker 18: I used my superpower finding crack anytime, anywhere. 537 00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 23: Yeah, this trial has laid out the challenges of a 538 00:24:57,840 --> 00:24:59,920 Speaker 23: first family more than anything else we have seen. 539 00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:01,520 Speaker 22: And none of this has done yet. 540 00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:05,119 Speaker 23: Might come still crunch yet again as we move closer 541 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:06,360 Speaker 23: to the elections this year. 542 00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:07,920 Speaker 2: And talk to me about the Supreme Court and these 543 00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:09,800 Speaker 2: recordings and are we going to scandal here or not? 544 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 22: It's odd going. 545 00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:14,880 Speaker 23: You know, the US court system is under scording scrutiny 546 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:17,480 Speaker 23: of late.

This is from the Hay Salary Guide, 601 00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:52,159 Speaker 2: which is the largest report we have into salary and 602 00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:54,320 Speaker 2: recruitment trends, based on a survey of more than fifteen 603 00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:57,359 Speaker 2: thousand respondents covering twelve hundred rolls in twenty six industries. 604 00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 2: So what have we got. Seventy seven percent of employees 605 00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:02,080 Speaker 2: ease say they're looking to leave their job in the 606 00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:04,520 Speaker 2: next twelve months. The greener pastes make more money sixty 607 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:07,639 Speaker 2: four percent. It's the cost of living number one reason 608 00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:10,560 Speaker 2: for the switch. Forty percent unhappy with the salary seventy 609 00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:14,640 Speaker 2: three percent doesn't reflect their individual performance. That's right, everyone's 610 00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:17,520 Speaker 2: a genius who needs to earn more. Huge change and 611 00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:18,680 Speaker 2: pay rise expectations. 612 00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:18,840 Speaker 23: Though. 613 00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:22,800 Speaker 2: Back in twenty nineteen, sixty seven percent expected to pay 614 00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:25,000 Speaker 2: rise of less than three percent. Now sixty one percent 615 00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:27,920 Speaker 2: want more than three percent, a third expecting ten percent 616 00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:31,560 Speaker 2: or higher. Because you're so brilliant, that's why no one's 617 00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:34,439 Speaker 2: as good as you. Eighty six percent of employee ers 618 00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:37,320 Speaker 2: say they will increase their workers salaries in the next review, 619 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:39,600 Speaker 2: but not to the level of the worker's expectation. That's 620 00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:40,920 Speaker 2: how it works, isn't it. You go, can I have 621 00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:42,600 Speaker 2: one hundred dollars? No, you can't, You can have fifty? 622 00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:44,000 Speaker 2: You can I have sixty, No you can't. You get 623 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:44,480 Speaker 2: fifty three? 624 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:44,880 Speaker 3: And there you go. 625 00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:47,680 Speaker 2: Are the parts of the report. Businesses becoming more optimistic, 626 00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:50,760 Speaker 2: sixty four percent believing business activity is going to ramp 627 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:54,800 Speaker 2: up in the next twelve months. Skills shortage, unbelievably is 628 00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:57,360 Speaker 2: still an issue twenty four percent. Mind you, that's seventy 629 00:28:57,440 --> 00:29:00,840 Speaker 2: six percent saying no, twenty four percent, it's actually gotten 630 00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:03,680 Speaker 2: worse in the last twelve months. Majority say it's remained 631 00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:07,080 Speaker 2: about the same. So I think, broadly, broadly, we've got 632 00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:10,520 Speaker 2: the skill shortage under some sort of control. Good and 633 00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:12,680 Speaker 2: the immigration search that we've had in the last twelve 634 00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:16,240 Speaker 2: months or so.

They're not idiots, 668 00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:45,920 Speaker 2: they don't want to burn the planet down, and that 669 00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:47,320 Speaker 2: should be taken into account. 670 00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:51,520 Speaker 16: Yeah, we also need to ensure we're using the most 671 00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:55,880 Speaker 16: appropriate and up to date science in this whole discussion. 672 00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:57,160 Speaker 12: You know, target to. 673 00:30:57,200 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 16: Targets, and you know, farmers want to do the right 674 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:03,880 Speaker 16: thing and make progress towards you know, more efficient production, 675 00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:07,640 Speaker 16: profitable production and good environmental outcomes, but they do need 676 00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:11,960 Speaker 16: clarity around the policy settings. So that's what we're looking 677 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:12,320 Speaker 16: forward to. 678 00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:15,160 Speaker 2: Are you optimistic you'll get there? Can get there? 679 00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:16,200 Speaker 3: Oh? 680 00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:19,600 Speaker 16: Look, I am optimistic. I'm an optimistic person. And you know, 681 00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:21,840 Speaker 16: I think we've got to work incredibly hard on behalf 682 00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:25,000 Speaker 16: of farmers to get what I would call enduring policy 683 00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:28,280 Speaker 16: in place, because otherwise we get stuck in a cycle. 684 00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:31,960 Speaker 16: And when farmers have clarity and we get enduring policy, 685 00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:35,600 Speaker 16: they will invest in the things that they need to 686 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:38,280 Speaker 16: to improve their farms. And you know understand here at 687 00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:40,880 Speaker 16: field Days, and you know it's a great example of 688 00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:45,160 Speaker 16: farmers that will adopt innovation and continue to you know, 689 00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:47,720 Speaker 16: push forward and do a great job producing high quality 690 00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:49,400 Speaker 16: product that the world demands. 691 00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:51,200 Speaker 2: Couldn't agree more. We talked to Peter Nation in a 692 00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:53,120 Speaker 2: couple of moments, got a good vibe there at the moment. 693 00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:57,080 Speaker 16: Yes, it's just clearing, so it's a little bit hard 694 00:31:57,080 --> 00:31:59,360 Speaker 16: to tell, but it's very busy. I've come out side 695 00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:03,640 Speaker 16: and found a quite spot and you know, farmers, you know, 696 00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:05,400 Speaker 16: always come to field Days. I think we'll have a 697 00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:07,680 Speaker 16: busy Wednesday and Thursday. The weather looks a little bit, 698 00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:12,240 Speaker 16: you know, in Clevement on Friday, but we cannot forget 699 00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:16,800 Speaker 16: a critical role that farmers play in the economy. You know, 700 00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:19,680 Speaker 16: twenty five billion with exports from dairy to the end 701 00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:22,520 Speaker 16: of April this year. And you know where the farmers 702 00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:24,760 Speaker 16: do well, communities do well. In New Zealand does well. 703 00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 16: So we look forward to the next couple of days 704 00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:27,440 Speaker 16: talking to a. 705 00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:27,800 Speaker 13: Few of them. 706 00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:30,080 Speaker 2: Good stuff, well said, you go well, Campbell Parker, who's 707 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:32,560 Speaker 2: the daary in New Zealand. CEO Peter Nation aforementioned, who's 708 00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:34,280 Speaker 2: the Chief executive Field days with us in a couple 709 00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:37,720 Speaker 2: of moments ten minutes past seven again from our Defense 710 00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:40,320 Speaker 2: Force into Korea. We're sending forty one of our personnel 711 00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:42,800 Speaker 2: to South Korea to help with the UN Command. Defense 712 00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:45,080 Speaker 2: Minister Judith Collins with us on this very good morning to. 713 00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:47,040 Speaker 11: You, Oh good morning mate. 714 00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:49,480 Speaker 2: Is this increasingly an angsty part of the world? 715 00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:53,440 Speaker 15: Well, I think any of us who look look at 716 00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:56,680 Speaker 15: the world now, we can see that things are obviously 717 00:32:57,080 --> 00:33:01,200 Speaker 15: moving in a difficult way. But it's also important to 718 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:04,960 Speaker 15: note that the United Nations Command is asked for this 719 00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:08,520 Speaker 15: extra contribution from us. So from my point of view, 720 00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:12,320 Speaker 15: it's a road of confidence the Museum's role and we're 721 00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:16,440 Speaker 15: considered a very good player in the world with people 722 00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:19,440 Speaker 15: who contribute well, and our people will do well. 723 00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:21,600 Speaker 2: What will they be doing well. 724 00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:24,320 Speaker 15: There's an Honor Guard, which is the extra to what 725 00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:28,720 Speaker 15: we've done before. It's a twenty five personnel. Those are 726 00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:33,480 Speaker 15: mostly younger lease experienced of our Defense Force team. So 727 00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:35,800 Speaker 15: it's a really good opportunity for those with a couple 728 00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:40,000 Speaker 15: of years service to actually get not only some overseas deployment, 729 00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:43,400 Speaker 15: but actually working with other nations because now we are 730 00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:46,760 Speaker 15: one of several other countries involved. But it's good for 731 00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:49,320 Speaker 15: them to do that, good for their training, good for 732 00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:52,880 Speaker 15: their understanding of how we work in with other countries. 733 00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:55,600 Speaker 15: And then of course we've got an extra six going 734 00:33:55,720 --> 00:34:00,840 Speaker 15: to the currently twelve that we currently provide to the 735 00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:03,160 Speaker 15: Armistice Commission and. 736 00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:07,560 Speaker 2: The new incommand and given the parlor state in parts 737 00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:09,600 Speaker 2: of our Defense Force to forty one stretches or are 738 00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:10,480 Speaker 2: we comfortable with us? 739 00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:17,880 Speaker 15: Mostly the large number of this is actually our newer people, 740 00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:20,239 Speaker 15: and so the fact is that that will be good 741 00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:22,360 Speaker 15: for them. One of the most things we can do 742 00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:26,239 Speaker 15: in defense is to keep everyone home because frankfully, no 743 00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:29,560 Speaker 15: one joins defense because they want to improve their missing 744 00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:32,359 Speaker 15: skills at home. They really do want to be out 745 00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:36,279 Speaker 15: there in the world getting to rub shoulders with the 746 00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:39,720 Speaker 15: people that we will we work with in defense roles. 747 00:34:39,719 --> 00:34:43,040 Speaker 15: So this is good for defense. It's good for us 748 00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:46,160 Speaker 15: retaining people. It's really good for us to bringing new 749 00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:47,360 Speaker 15: people in good stuff. 750 00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:49,919 Speaker 2: Appreciate your time. Defensement is the Judith Colin's twelve minutes 751 00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:53,240 Speaker 2: past seven passing. Just then trade me property numbers this morning. 752 00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:55,480 Speaker 2: They're noisy. I always say the same thing. Month to 753 00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:57,440 Speaker 2: month is always be noisy. You look longer term to 754 00:34:57,440 --> 00:34:59,520 Speaker 2: the quarter to the year. But month and month April 755 00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:02,120 Speaker 2: to May there are property prices fell two point three percent, 756 00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:05,640 Speaker 2: were down to eight fifty seven thousand on average around 757 00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:09,000 Speaker 2: the country. I can find only one region which has 758 00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:11,800 Speaker 2: gone up, which is Gisbon five point two percent. Everyone 759 00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:14,080 Speaker 2: else is down. Some aren't down much. Canterby's down zero 760 00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:16,160 Speaker 2: point two, in West Coast is down zero point one. 761 00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:18,919 Speaker 2: But there are some reasonable falls. So Tiger's down three 762 00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:22,240 Speaker 2: point two, Hawks Bays down three point seven, the Capital 763 00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:25,600 Speaker 2: down two and Auckland down two point three. But that's 764 00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:29,160 Speaker 2: where the property market is at currently thirteen past seven. 765 00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:33,439 Speaker 2: The my costle racist Mordi, my partner's in real estate 766 00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:36,400 Speaker 2: and Auckland. Their Q two sales and units has already 767 00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:38,880 Speaker 2: more than last year. Things moving because sellers finally have 768 00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:40,640 Speaker 2: realized real price into getting on with it. It's a 769 00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:42,439 Speaker 2: very good point because the numbers I gave you were, 770 00:35:42,600 --> 00:35:45,040 Speaker 2: you know, the cost of a house on average, and 771 00:35:45,040 --> 00:35:47,399 Speaker 2: you should always be careful about averages. But that didn't 772 00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:49,680 Speaker 2: include the number of sales. So you can have the 773 00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:51,520 Speaker 2: price going down, but the number of sales going up 774 00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:54,960 Speaker 2: of course.

There is rain coming Friday, 791 00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:41,839 Speaker 20: but who knows it will be raining, but who knows 792 00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:44,319 Speaker 20: when and how much? And on Saturday's looking fine as well. 793 00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:46,120 Speaker 2: So and I'm hearing in the news this morning the 794 00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:49,240 Speaker 2: international contingent looks good.

So that's 808 00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:26,360 Speaker 20: that's looking really good. And I've got to say the 809 00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:29,799 Speaker 20: exhibitors have really fronted up again this year, Mike, can 810 00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:32,799 Speaker 20: you know there are head ones out there exactly and 811 00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:35,279 Speaker 20: we're only one percent empty, so we're not in nine 812 00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:37,080 Speaker 20: percent four which is great. 813 00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:38,640 Speaker 2: Effort by the n I was going to say, what 814 00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:42,200 Speaker 2: is that mood? If you're dealing with on farm inflation, 815 00:37:42,320 --> 00:37:44,480 Speaker 2: that's a killer and everybody knows it, or knows I 816 00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:46,719 Speaker 2: know it's dissipated a bit of late. But then again, 817 00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:48,840 Speaker 2: you've got the announcement yesterday, hay waking, you got a 818 00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:51,120 Speaker 2: government that's on your side broadly speaking.

Seems to be a 824 00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:03,640 Speaker 20: lot more at the moment, but you know they'll navigate 825 00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:05,640 Speaker 20: their way through it. But it is hard on the farm. 826 00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:07,920 Speaker 20: You know, you've got you look at land prices are 827 00:38:07,960 --> 00:38:10,480 Speaker 20: half what they were a year ago, interest rates of 828 00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:15,960 Speaker 20: sort of double CPI, inflation, fuel, you know, legislation, all 829 00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:19,160 Speaker 20: those things are challenges. But an event like ours, I guess, 830 00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:22,600 Speaker 20: presents those challenges but also tries to present some solutions. 831 00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:26,520 Speaker 20: This year ten o'clock, we're opening the Advocacy Hub, which 832 00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:29,879 Speaker 20: is a joint initiative with Fairated Farmers and that that's 833 00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:33,040 Speaker 20: our first initial staff into bringing a lot of organizations 834 00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:35,040 Speaker 20: together for farmers and growers to come and have those 835 00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:39,560 Speaker 20: conversations and debates and get some information direct from the 836 00:38:39,560 --> 00:38:40,680 Speaker 20: horse's mouth, so to speak. 837 00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:43,759 Speaker 2: Fantastic, Go well, mate, ped Nation, who's the chief executive 838 00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:45,920 Speaker 2: at field Dose for another year and speaking of the 839 00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:48,759 Speaker 2: area at will Hart. In this case, Zesper's having another 840 00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:51,840 Speaker 2: crack with their growers. They want to increase supply with 841 00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:54,520 Speaker 2: the contractors in the northern Hemisphere. So they got partners 842 00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:56,160 Speaker 2: right in Italy France. We told you about this at 843 00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:59,480 Speaker 2: the time Italy France grew Japan and Korea and so 844 00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:03,560 Speaker 2: that's called the Zesprey Global Supply the ZGS. Now currently 845 00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:06,960 Speaker 2: it's capped and they want to increase that. Their argument 846 00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:09,120 Speaker 2: is the international demand. They're not able to meet it. 847 00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:10,879 Speaker 2: So more and more people love the old kiwi fruit, 848 00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:12,640 Speaker 2: but we need to grow it and meet the demand. 849 00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:14,520 Speaker 2: They had to go with the growers and they said 850 00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:16,799 Speaker 2: how about it, and the grower said no, thank you. 851 00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:20,919 Speaker 2: So the current limits grown in the Northern Hemisphere would 852 00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:23,319 Speaker 2: only meet forty two percent of forecast demand, so surely 853 00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:25,919 Speaker 2: you want to meet forecast demand by twenty thirty three. 854 00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:27,920 Speaker 2: So they're going to do some shared talks and road 855 00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:29,200 Speaker 2: shows and I'm sure it's going to be on it 856 00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:31,200 Speaker 2: at the Field days as well. So they're going to 857 00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:33,040 Speaker 2: have another go to see if they can get the 858 00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:35,640 Speaker 2: numbers across the line and increase. And as I told you, 859 00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:38,520 Speaker 2: I think the other day, the season looks absolutely fantastic 860 00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:40,320 Speaker 2: coming up twenty past seven. 861 00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:42,360 Speaker 3: On my Costkill Breakfast. 862 00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:44,640 Speaker 2: Great time to be in the industry, MKE.

In a side note, by the way, 888 00:40:53,400 --> 00:40:56,560 Speaker 2: the report the previous government commission to look at how 889 00:40:56,560 --> 00:41:00,560 Speaker 2: to handle agriculture around climate change it was called ekwoker. Noah, 890 00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:06,239 Speaker 2: did I get that right? Echowacanoa. You've forgotten the hay part, hey, echaquacanoa. 891 00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:08,440 Speaker 2: Now tell me what that means. Just tell me what 892 00:41:08,480 --> 00:41:10,520 Speaker 2: it means. Translate that. Does anybody know what that means? 893 00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:13,240 Speaker 2: For goodness sake? And how simply it's a good example 894 00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:15,880 Speaker 2: of how simply peppering a few touchy fee the phrases 895 00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:19,200 Speaker 2: change nothing when it comes to the language. So we 896 00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:20,719 Speaker 2: will need to find, I guess, a new way to 897 00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:23,200 Speaker 2: work out where agriculture fits into climate change. But here's 898 00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:26,080 Speaker 2: the key point that the current government frequented by farmers 899 00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:28,160 Speaker 2: of course by the likes of Andrew Hoggart, that they 900 00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:30,919 Speaker 2: get that the previous government didn't get. When it comes 901 00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:33,799 Speaker 2: to farming, We globally are as good as it gets. 902 00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:37,000 Speaker 2: If we made farming needlessly hard here, we wouldn't produce 903 00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:39,000 Speaker 2: as much, which was always a stupid idea given we 904 00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:41,719 Speaker 2: sell what we make and that's called foreign income, and 905 00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:44,200 Speaker 2: what we don't sell we eat. And if we made 906 00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:46,239 Speaker 2: it too hard to farm, we would still need to eat. 907 00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:48,480 Speaker 2: It would simply be grind by somebody else who isn't 908 00:41:48,480 --> 00:41:50,799 Speaker 2: as good as we are. What's the point in that? 909 00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:52,640 Speaker 2: And then we get to the science of it all, 910 00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:55,560 Speaker 2: punishing people for a problem that science is already and 911 00:41:55,600 --> 00:41:59,000 Speaker 2: will increasingly help, if not address is pointless. The obsession 912 00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:01,839 Speaker 2: around the Pois accord emissions at the expense of all 913 00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:05,080 Speaker 2: else has already played out disastrously, of course, in oil 914 00:42:05,120 --> 00:42:07,279 Speaker 2: and gas and our ability to turn the lights on 915 00:42:07,640 --> 00:42:10,080 Speaker 2: or not on a cold winter's morning. Last thing we 916 00:42:10,120 --> 00:42:12,960 Speaker 2: needed was a drop in agriculture. So the Australian opposition, 917 00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:15,080 Speaker 2: you might have noted already this week, is starting to 918 00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:18,920 Speaker 2: talk about bailing on the parasteel because it's unobtainable. We 919 00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:21,600 Speaker 2: signed up to things we couldn't do, and Labour didn't 920 00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:24,480 Speaker 2: appear to care who they wrecked while chasing that illusion. 921 00:42:24,760 --> 00:42:28,480 Speaker 2: Reality and common sense is back, and not a moment 922 00:42:28,520 --> 00:42:33,600 Speaker 2: too soon, asking Darling Taner Sammy Gaden McCauley yesterday, we're 923 00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:35,480 Speaker 2: getting fobbed off now. So I've told Sammy to call 924 00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:37,080 Speaker 2: them each and every single day, because here's the thing. 925 00:42:37,080 --> 00:42:39,400 Speaker 2: They're saying, Oh, there's still nothing and we'd like it 926 00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:41,520 Speaker 2: to be over, and we're just really hoping it'll be 927 00:42:41,520 --> 00:42:43,200 Speaker 2: over soon. And when I'm trying to point out they're 928 00:42:43,239 --> 00:42:46,040 Speaker 2: paying the bills and there'll be a invoice arriving each 929 00:42:46,040 --> 00:42:47,799 Speaker 2: and every week, and they'll be going, jeez, this is 930 00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:50,680 Speaker 2: mounting up isn't it tens of thousands of dollars. Wonder 931 00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:52,640 Speaker 2: do they ask any questions? Where are you at? 932 00:42:52,680 --> 00:42:52,839 Speaker 10: Who? 933 00:42:52,840 --> 00:42:54,279 Speaker 2: If you talked to? How many more people do you 934 00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:55,960 Speaker 2: have to talk to? What are they telling you? Is 935 00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:58,040 Speaker 2: there a problem all of these sort of things. The 936 00:42:58,160 --> 00:43:00,440 Speaker 2: lawyer is in the employee of the grit So the 937 00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:03,520 Speaker 2: Greens are playing games here and it's becoming a joke. 938 00:43:03,719 --> 00:43:06,280 Speaker 2: And I don't think they take themselves seriously. Mike another 939 00:43:06,320 --> 00:43:09,520 Speaker 2: pole another confirming the downwards trend for the government and 940 00:43:09,600 --> 00:43:11,520 Speaker 2: lack of popularity for the Prime minister. And this is 941 00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:15,360 Speaker 2: the most uninspiring labor party of all time in opposition. 942 00:43:16,120 --> 00:43:18,560 Speaker 2: Doesn't this government, with only fifty five percent of support 943 00:43:18,640 --> 00:43:21,600 Speaker 2: at best, run the risk of all the unpopular changes 944 00:43:21,600 --> 00:43:24,960 Speaker 2: they're ramming through urgency rather than ensuring policies that will 945 00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:27,080 Speaker 2: be reversed, like they have done with the labor policies. 946 00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:28,840 Speaker 2: It's not a bad point. If you're a critic of 947 00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:32,399 Speaker 2: the government, you can start to mount a not unreasonable case. 948 00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:34,840 Speaker 2: Have you missed the poll yesterday, there's no real change. 949 00:43:34,920 --> 00:43:40,320 Speaker 2: Labors down a smidge, Nationals down almost a couple overall, 950 00:43:40,400 --> 00:43:42,400 Speaker 2: the government are down a couple of seats and the 951 00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:45,319 Speaker 2: Opposition are up a couple of seats. But this is 952 00:43:45,320 --> 00:43:47,480 Speaker 2: what we saw in Australia as well with Albin Ezi. 953 00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:51,080 Speaker 2: He's got other problems though, and that's why he's unproperly. 954 00:43:51,120 --> 00:43:52,799 Speaker 2: But there was nothing in the budget. So in other words, 955 00:43:52,840 --> 00:43:55,359 Speaker 2: the Australians rolled out some tax cuts, they didn't get 956 00:43:55,360 --> 00:43:58,360 Speaker 2: a bounce in the poles. This government rolled out tax cuts, 957 00:43:58,400 --> 00:44:00,560 Speaker 2: they didn't get a bounce in the poles. And Christopher 958 00:44:00,600 --> 00:44:02,359 Speaker 2: Luckxson at some point. It isn't at the moment because 959 00:44:02,360 --> 00:44:05,840 Speaker 2: we're still miles away from an election, but eventually that 960 00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:08,399 Speaker 2: time will tick by and if the Prime Minister isn't 961 00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:09,960 Speaker 2: more popular than really is, there's going to be an 962 00:44:09,960 --> 00:44:12,880 Speaker 2: issue once again. So his favorability is down to minus 963 00:44:12,960 --> 00:44:16,040 Speaker 2: five and Christopher Hipkins is up to plus three. So 964 00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:20,680 Speaker 2: really we're not dealing with rock stars here either side 965 00:44:20,719 --> 00:44:23,640 Speaker 2: of the campaign, and that is to Luckson's advantage. Having 966 00:44:23,680 --> 00:44:26,799 Speaker 2: somebody as uninspiring as Hipkins actually helps them. But when 967 00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:31,799 Speaker 2: somebody that uninspiring is beating you, there's your problem. So 968 00:44:32,040 --> 00:44:35,080 Speaker 2: things aren't on fire. They talk a good game, they're 969 00:44:35,120 --> 00:44:38,880 Speaker 2: doing some good stuff, it's just not gelling in the 970 00:44:38,920 --> 00:44:42,080 Speaker 2: polls at the moment, so that's potentially a problem ongoing 971 00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:45,279 Speaker 2: right petrol ComCom says we've got an issue. We'll talk 972 00:44:45,320 --> 00:44:48,600 Speaker 2: to the com coom after the news, Big. 973 00:44:48,520 --> 00:44:53,640 Speaker 1: News, the bold opinions, the Mic Hosking Breakfast with Jaguar, 974 00:44:53,840 --> 00:44:56,640 Speaker 1: The Art of Performance News Talk said Bi. 975 00:44:56,280 --> 00:44:58,880 Speaker 2: Michael put the government's on popularity down to the constant critique. 976 00:44:58,880 --> 00:45:00,480 Speaker 2: When you say on popularity, I mean you've got to 977 00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:02,600 Speaker 2: use that in loose terms. They're still the most popular 978 00:45:02,640 --> 00:45:04,800 Speaker 2: would still be the government, of course, down the constant 979 00:45:04,800 --> 00:45:07,840 Speaker 2: critique by media amplifying lefty pressure groups who don't like 980 00:45:07,880 --> 00:45:09,880 Speaker 2: the balance being given back to our country. Nets have 981 00:45:09,920 --> 00:45:12,560 Speaker 2: made some errors and have been rightly criticized, but they're 982 00:45:12,560 --> 00:45:15,839 Speaker 2: doing what we voted them in to do. Good news 983 00:45:15,920 --> 00:45:18,359 Speaker 2: isn't given attention. It was a very good that last 984 00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:20,920 Speaker 2: points salient yesterday. I told you to look around for 985 00:45:20,960 --> 00:45:23,359 Speaker 2: the ram raid story down eighty percent? Where was it? 986 00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:25,719 Speaker 2: I mean it was it was about the place, but 987 00:45:25,800 --> 00:45:27,600 Speaker 2: not not in the way that the bad news is 988 00:45:27,640 --> 00:45:30,960 Speaker 2: the media. I heard it, yeah, exactly on the show 989 00:45:31,400 --> 00:45:34,160 Speaker 2: and Kerry Show and get words because she listened to 990 00:45:34,239 --> 00:45:36,600 Speaker 2: this show and then she runs with it and if 991 00:45:36,600 --> 00:45:38,400 Speaker 2: they were smart, if Simon and James were smart, they 992 00:45:38,400 --> 00:45:40,759 Speaker 2: would have run with it too. Having said all of that, 993 00:45:40,880 --> 00:45:43,520 Speaker 2: it's always the bad news that the media focus on. Unfortunately, 994 00:45:43,600 --> 00:45:45,640 Speaker 2: mikey comments on climate policies and need to yes a 995 00:45:45,719 --> 00:45:49,080 Speaker 2: bang on these pointless polls at the stage ain't the 996 00:45:49,080 --> 00:45:52,680 Speaker 2: worst hypochond look. I tend to agree that that's done 997 00:45:52,680 --> 00:45:55,840 Speaker 2: for corporate clients and they thought therefore they pay for it. Therefore, 998 00:45:55,880 --> 00:45:57,160 Speaker 2: you know, it is what it is. You may as 999 00:45:57,160 --> 00:45:59,239 Speaker 2: well read them and take them for what they are. 1000 00:45:59,280 --> 00:45:59,440 Speaker 3: Mike. 1001 00:45:59,760 --> 00:46:02,000 Speaker 2: I'm part of a team from Lifeline. We're going to 1002 00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:03,640 Speaker 2: be at the Field Days for the very first time 1003 00:46:03,640 --> 00:46:06,160 Speaker 2: this year. Very excited. Got a special wellness Hume and 1004 00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:08,080 Speaker 2: look forward to having many over these four days. Well, 1005 00:46:08,080 --> 00:46:10,560 Speaker 2: it'll be fantastic. You enjoy that, Mike. The European election 1006 00:46:10,640 --> 00:46:13,560 Speaker 2: results indicate people have had enough of the over aggressive 1007 00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:16,120 Speaker 2: climate change targets, among other things. I think that's probably 1008 00:46:16,120 --> 00:46:18,520 Speaker 2: true that Green's got spent in Europe, and for those 1009 00:46:18,520 --> 00:46:21,200 Speaker 2: who support that type of ideology, there are major major 1010 00:46:21,200 --> 00:46:23,320 Speaker 2: concerns as to what they do going forward about climate 1011 00:46:23,360 --> 00:46:26,759 Speaker 2: change now, Mike, to date, all national have done is 1012 00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:29,279 Speaker 2: unbundled the outer carnage wrought by the Labour government. By 1013 00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:31,800 Speaker 2: just implementing common sense measures, they need to start getting 1014 00:46:32,120 --> 00:46:36,480 Speaker 2: inspirational and giving struggling Kiwi's hope that life will improve. 1015 00:46:37,040 --> 00:46:42,440 Speaker 2: Twenty two to Way Politics, Wednesday, Mark Mitchell, Ginny Anderson 1016 00:46:42,440 --> 00:46:45,719 Speaker 2: after eight o'clock this morning, meantime Commerce Commission. As I'm 1017 00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:47,800 Speaker 2: sure you're well aware, as way back into the petrol market, 1018 00:46:47,840 --> 00:46:49,879 Speaker 2: retailers too quick to put the prices up, too slow 1019 00:46:49,960 --> 00:46:52,160 Speaker 2: to bring them down. The bill for the behavior falls 1020 00:46:52,160 --> 00:46:53,600 Speaker 2: on the punting you and me to the tune of 1021 00:46:53,600 --> 00:46:56,120 Speaker 2: fifteen million dollars a year. The Commissioner, Brian chapelers with 1022 00:46:56,239 --> 00:46:59,280 Speaker 2: us very good morning morning, Mike. How would you describe 1023 00:46:59,280 --> 00:47:00,839 Speaker 2: the market in Lamer's terms? 1024 00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:01,399 Speaker 3: Is this a rut? 1025 00:47:01,440 --> 00:47:02,560 Speaker 2: Are they ripping us off or not? 1026 00:47:04,640 --> 00:47:07,279 Speaker 10: Look, I think it's just not as competitive as we'd like. 1027 00:47:07,400 --> 00:47:10,239 Speaker 10: We can certainly see competition that's starting to improve. We 1028 00:47:10,320 --> 00:47:13,640 Speaker 10: can see more of those unstaffed sites coming in and 1029 00:47:14,120 --> 00:47:17,360 Speaker 10: bringing down prices in the areas around them. But this 1030 00:47:17,480 --> 00:47:20,160 Speaker 10: study shows, you know, prices going up faster than they 1031 00:47:20,160 --> 00:47:22,440 Speaker 10: come down, that you know, there's more work to do. 1032 00:47:22,680 --> 00:47:25,760 Speaker 2: Their counter argument, as it always is the complexity of pricing, 1033 00:47:25,760 --> 00:47:27,160 Speaker 2: because we all look at the price of a barrel 1034 00:47:27,160 --> 00:47:29,719 Speaker 2: of oil and go, hats down? Why and so it's 1035 00:47:29,840 --> 00:47:32,640 Speaker 2: much more complex than that. Does your work take that 1036 00:47:32,719 --> 00:47:33,440 Speaker 2: into account? 1037 00:47:34,239 --> 00:47:36,560 Speaker 10: Well, A really good thing about this is it just 1038 00:47:36,680 --> 00:47:41,000 Speaker 10: looks at increases and decreases and how they get treated. 1039 00:47:41,120 --> 00:47:43,640 Speaker 10: And it's over quite a long period of time. So 1040 00:47:44,040 --> 00:47:46,640 Speaker 10: this is a pretty robust finding that prices go up 1041 00:47:46,680 --> 00:47:49,759 Speaker 10: faster than they come down. I don't think they can escape. 1042 00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:52,640 Speaker 2: That, right, But they would counter it by saying, look, 1043 00:47:52,640 --> 00:47:54,120 Speaker 2: we look at the price of a barrel of oil, 1044 00:47:54,200 --> 00:47:56,799 Speaker 2: it's down. Why isn't the price down? And they go well, 1045 00:47:56,800 --> 00:47:58,920 Speaker 2: at the same time the dollar moved as well, or 1046 00:47:58,960 --> 00:48:01,560 Speaker 2: the cost of shipping chain and therefore it all equated out. 1047 00:48:02,000 --> 00:48:03,160 Speaker 2: Do you dismiss that or not? 1048 00:48:04,280 --> 00:48:07,960 Speaker 10: Yeah, you'd have to say that on average. You know, 1049 00:48:08,040 --> 00:48:11,080 Speaker 10: we're looking over several years, so there would have to 1050 00:48:11,080 --> 00:48:15,240 Speaker 10: be a systematic change in the exchange rate or oil 1051 00:48:15,360 --> 00:48:17,759 Speaker 10: prices or sorry not. You know, there have to be 1052 00:48:17,760 --> 00:48:20,080 Speaker 10: a systematic change in some of their costs going in 1053 00:48:20,120 --> 00:48:22,399 Speaker 10: different directions to explain this. And I just don't think 1054 00:48:22,440 --> 00:48:23,080 Speaker 10: that's credible. 1055 00:48:23,200 --> 00:48:24,360 Speaker 2: Okay, is it collusion? 1056 00:48:25,760 --> 00:48:29,080 Speaker 10: No, there's no evidence that there's collusion. I think it's 1057 00:48:29,200 --> 00:48:31,720 Speaker 10: just a you know, as one of the things factors 1058 00:48:31,719 --> 00:48:34,239 Speaker 10: they give. It's they look at local competition, they see 1059 00:48:34,239 --> 00:48:36,440 Speaker 10: what others are doing. If they're not forced to lower prices, 1060 00:48:36,440 --> 00:48:38,840 Speaker 10: they don't necessarily do that. That's a market. 1061 00:48:38,920 --> 00:48:40,520 Speaker 2: Well, why doesn't it work in the sense we had 1062 00:48:40,520 --> 00:48:42,520 Speaker 2: the white time of people on Gull's been a similar 1063 00:48:42,560 --> 00:48:44,600 Speaker 2: sort of player. They go, we're not like them, we 1064 00:48:44,719 --> 00:48:47,480 Speaker 2: are different. We lead the market. If they lead the market, 1065 00:48:47,480 --> 00:48:48,800 Speaker 2: why don't the majors follow? 1066 00:48:49,920 --> 00:48:53,080 Speaker 10: Well, they do in the areas where those stations are, 1067 00:48:53,680 --> 00:48:56,920 Speaker 10: and so you do see when a new station comes in, 1068 00:48:57,120 --> 00:48:59,400 Speaker 10: it brings down prices in that area if it's one 1069 00:48:59,440 --> 00:49:02,680 Speaker 10: of those under dark sites. So making it easier for 1070 00:49:02,719 --> 00:49:06,480 Speaker 10: them to access fuel, which is what the regulatory regime does, 1071 00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:09,000 Speaker 10: and then making it easier for them to open more 1072 00:49:09,040 --> 00:49:12,640 Speaker 10: of their stations, which councils have a role in that helps, 1073 00:49:12,719 --> 00:49:16,280 Speaker 10: and then US motorists choosing to shop there that forces 1074 00:49:16,320 --> 00:49:18,040 Speaker 10: them agors to allow prices to match. 1075 00:49:18,320 --> 00:49:20,600 Speaker 2: Having muddied the waters, I think a little bit. When 1076 00:49:20,600 --> 00:49:22,600 Speaker 2: you talk about the tax rate coming off for Auckland 1077 00:49:22,600 --> 00:49:24,480 Speaker 2: motorists for example, I mean, of course it will come 1078 00:49:24,480 --> 00:49:26,960 Speaker 2: off instantly, won't it Because it's an external input. So 1079 00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:29,160 Speaker 2: in other words, when the tax goes, it goes, it's easy. 1080 00:49:29,200 --> 00:49:32,040 Speaker 2: Whereas what they're arguing is the complexity of day to 1081 00:49:32,080 --> 00:49:34,359 Speaker 2: day pricing is way more problematic than that. 1082 00:49:38,320 --> 00:49:40,840 Speaker 10: I don't think it's maybeing the waters. I think if 1083 00:49:40,880 --> 00:49:43,240 Speaker 10: there's a tendency for prices to come down more slowly 1084 00:49:43,280 --> 00:49:45,239 Speaker 10: than they go up, we don't want to see that 1085 00:49:45,280 --> 00:49:47,279 Speaker 10: happening when the fuel tex comes off, right. 1086 00:49:47,520 --> 00:49:50,520 Speaker 2: Sure of you saying what you've said, what else can 1087 00:49:50,640 --> 00:49:53,080 Speaker 2: be done? What's been the point of this market study, 1088 00:49:53,120 --> 00:49:54,880 Speaker 2: of your involvement in the market and all of this, 1089 00:49:55,000 --> 00:49:56,320 Speaker 2: what's actually changed? 1090 00:49:57,280 --> 00:50:01,160 Speaker 10: Well, what's actually changed is that companies like Way, Tomo 1091 00:50:01,239 --> 00:50:04,799 Speaker 10: and Gull can now more readily get fuel at more 1092 00:50:04,840 --> 00:50:08,359 Speaker 10: reasonable prices, and we've seen that they've been much more 1093 00:50:08,400 --> 00:50:10,720 Speaker 10: able to open stations than was the case in the past, 1094 00:50:10,840 --> 00:50:13,719 Speaker 10: and that that is driving down prices for Kiwi motorists. 1095 00:50:13,880 --> 00:50:15,840 Speaker 10: So I think we've got evidence that it is working 1096 00:50:16,120 --> 00:50:18,560 Speaker 10: and so perfect, No, but it's. 1097 00:50:18,400 --> 00:50:21,359 Speaker 2: Working, Okay, how much does the punter play a part 1098 00:50:21,360 --> 00:50:22,719 Speaker 2: in this? In other words, if I wanted to put 1099 00:50:22,719 --> 00:50:24,239 Speaker 2: a bit of energy into it, get a gas by 1100 00:50:24,320 --> 00:50:28,000 Speaker 2: app shop around. There's plenty of competition and there's plenty 1101 00:50:28,040 --> 00:50:30,080 Speaker 2: of price by variability. 1102 00:50:29,800 --> 00:50:32,000 Speaker 10: Yep, yep, especially in a place like Auckland. 1103 00:50:32,120 --> 00:50:32,319 Speaker 11: Look. 1104 00:50:32,480 --> 00:50:35,400 Speaker 10: Terry Collins from the AA's been talking about that in 1105 00:50:35,440 --> 00:50:38,320 Speaker 10: the last day or so. He's absolutely right. If everyone 1106 00:50:38,440 --> 00:50:41,239 Speaker 10: shops at the lowest price station, the others are going 1107 00:50:41,280 --> 00:50:42,399 Speaker 10: to have to match, all right. 1108 00:50:42,280 --> 00:50:44,880 Speaker 2: Brian, appreciate time. Brian Chapel, who's the commissioner at the 1109 00:50:44,920 --> 00:50:48,920 Speaker 2: Commerce Commission, seventeen minutes away from mahasking some unusual Singapore 1110 00:50:48,960 --> 00:50:53,160 Speaker 2: airlines are offering compensation out of the turbulence and normally compensation. 1111 00:50:53,200 --> 00:50:54,399 Speaker 2: I mean it's a nice thing to do and good 1112 00:50:54,400 --> 00:50:56,600 Speaker 2: on them. It's no criticism, just wondering if is this 1113 00:50:56,719 --> 00:51:01,120 Speaker 2: industry precedent or industry norm because they're offering ten thousand 1114 00:51:01,160 --> 00:51:03,920 Speaker 2: dollars something of it's about fifteen thousand New Zealand dollars 1115 00:51:04,400 --> 00:51:06,759 Speaker 2: if you sustained minor injuries. This was the flight the 1116 00:51:06,840 --> 00:51:10,600 Speaker 2: other day from London to Singapore, so fifteen thousand dollars 1117 00:51:10,640 --> 00:51:12,920 Speaker 2: if you sustained minor injuries. I don't know how they 1118 00:51:12,960 --> 00:51:15,120 Speaker 2: would quantify that, or whether you need to provide proof 1119 00:51:15,200 --> 00:51:17,120 Speaker 2: or I've sprained my ankle, or I got a bruise 1120 00:51:17,120 --> 00:51:18,959 Speaker 2: on my knee and it came from my head hitting 1121 00:51:19,040 --> 00:51:23,560 Speaker 2: the cabin above whatever. Anyway, if you had more serious injuries, 1122 00:51:23,960 --> 00:51:28,080 Speaker 2: they're offering an advanced payment of about something about forty 1123 00:51:28,120 --> 00:51:31,799 Speaker 2: thousand dollars to address the media to the immediate needs 1124 00:51:31,840 --> 00:51:35,279 Speaker 2: further discussions to meet their specific circumstances on cost. I 1125 00:51:35,400 --> 00:51:38,680 Speaker 2: get it if you had to incur cost as a result, 1126 00:51:39,160 --> 00:51:42,759 Speaker 2: but just by being there, it wasn't their fault. I mean, 1127 00:51:42,840 --> 00:51:44,400 Speaker 2: unless it's proven to be their fault, but at this 1128 00:51:44,440 --> 00:51:46,879 Speaker 2: point doesn't seem to be their fault. It just seems 1129 00:51:46,920 --> 00:51:48,399 Speaker 2: to be turbulence. And if you want to blame anyone, 1130 00:51:48,440 --> 00:51:50,359 Speaker 2: you blame climate change. And what we should have done 1131 00:51:50,400 --> 00:51:52,160 Speaker 2: is closed more coal mines sooner and then the turbulence 1132 00:51:52,200 --> 00:51:53,839 Speaker 2: wouldn't have happened. Then the plane wouldn't have fallen out 1133 00:51:53,880 --> 00:51:56,680 Speaker 2: of the skum. But is that standard if you ever 1134 00:51:56,680 --> 00:51:59,920 Speaker 2: been involved in that? Does somebody normally I mean Knight's accommodation, 1135 00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:01,799 Speaker 2: the hotel and some coffee or something like that. But 1136 00:52:01,840 --> 00:52:03,600 Speaker 2: that's a lot of money because there's a lot of 1137 00:52:03,600 --> 00:52:08,239 Speaker 2: passengers involved. Sixteen two, The make costing Breakfast or could 1138 00:52:08,239 --> 00:52:10,239 Speaker 2: it be make that by aunditioning out a son may 1139 00:52:10,239 --> 00:52:13,319 Speaker 2: stave off a class action from people that Singapore should 1140 00:52:13,320 --> 00:52:15,800 Speaker 2: have avoided a particular area. I got a lot of 1141 00:52:15,840 --> 00:52:18,520 Speaker 2: text about the Glenn's, Glenn's noddings head, Glen's all over 1142 00:52:18,560 --> 00:52:20,719 Speaker 2: the conspiracy theories about roots and how they need to 1143 00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:22,600 Speaker 2: change them. And they got a number of texts at 1144 00:52:22,600 --> 00:52:24,719 Speaker 2: the time about the bay have been gaul and how 1145 00:52:24,800 --> 00:52:26,360 Speaker 2: in the olden days they used to hand out a 1146 00:52:26,360 --> 00:52:27,920 Speaker 2: shot of whiskey as they headed over the bay, have 1147 00:52:27,960 --> 00:52:29,759 Speaker 2: been gall in the monsoon season and all that sort 1148 00:52:29,800 --> 00:52:32,160 Speaker 2: of stuff. Let me just just alert you to all 1149 00:52:32,200 --> 00:52:34,759 Speaker 2: of this if you're not a little already. Sport is 1150 00:52:34,800 --> 00:52:38,120 Speaker 2: where it's at. It has never been. This is a 1151 00:52:38,160 --> 00:52:41,080 Speaker 2: global thing that's unfolding in media, and people have never 1152 00:52:41,120 --> 00:52:43,320 Speaker 2: really dealt with sport before. We featured Netflix earlier on. 1153 00:52:43,360 --> 00:52:45,200 Speaker 2: They've got this new thing coming up called sprint looking 1154 00:52:45,239 --> 00:52:46,640 Speaker 2: for the fastest man in the world. Why are they 1155 00:52:46,640 --> 00:52:49,680 Speaker 2: doing that? Because it's sport? What else are Netflix doing 1156 00:52:49,680 --> 00:52:52,520 Speaker 2: at the moment? They're paying money and lots of it, millions, 1157 00:52:52,680 --> 00:52:56,200 Speaker 2: hundreds of millions of dollars to stream NFL football WNBA 1158 00:52:56,320 --> 00:52:59,040 Speaker 2: numbers out yesterday. This is the Women's basketball in America. 1159 00:52:59,400 --> 00:53:02,120 Speaker 2: SEID a record viewership for twenty twenty four season, highest 1160 00:53:02,120 --> 00:53:04,720 Speaker 2: game attendance in twenty six years. They get an average 1161 00:53:04,719 --> 00:53:07,440 Speaker 2: of four hundred and sixty two thousand viewers per game 1162 00:53:07,480 --> 00:53:10,279 Speaker 2: these days, highest in twenty six years. Not as much 1163 00:53:10,280 --> 00:53:12,240 Speaker 2: as the men. Still they're in their twenty eighth season. 1164 00:53:12,280 --> 00:53:16,040 Speaker 2: But they cut a deal with ABC, ESPN, ESPN, two, CBSWNBA, 1165 00:53:16,920 --> 00:53:19,880 Speaker 2: Warner Brothers, Discovery this morning, Connections in New Zealand obviously 1166 00:53:20,600 --> 00:53:22,880 Speaker 2: along the TNT Sports, they've announced that they've done an 1167 00:53:22,880 --> 00:53:26,480 Speaker 2: exclusive deal stolen it off NBC. They're already upping the 1168 00:53:26,520 --> 00:53:28,759 Speaker 2: anti on the NBA, the American Basketball. But they've done 1169 00:53:28,760 --> 00:53:30,640 Speaker 2: a deal this morning with the French Open, as in 1170 00:53:30,719 --> 00:53:33,640 Speaker 2: the tennis, which we've just been enjoying ten year contract 1171 00:53:33,880 --> 00:53:38,520 Speaker 2: for sixty five million dollars per year. So they're all 1172 00:53:38,560 --> 00:53:40,600 Speaker 2: over sport at the moment. What else have they added recently? 1173 00:53:40,600 --> 00:53:42,280 Speaker 2: They got the National Hockey League, they got the Stanley 1174 00:53:42,280 --> 00:53:43,800 Speaker 2: Cup on at the moment of course, the NASCAR, the 1175 00:53:43,920 --> 00:53:45,840 Speaker 2: US SoC at the college football playoffs, and now the 1176 00:53:45,840 --> 00:53:50,719 Speaker 2: French Open as well. Then also overnight announced Southeby's and 1177 00:53:50,760 --> 00:53:54,440 Speaker 2: fanatics are joining forces now southebes you know the name 1178 00:53:54,480 --> 00:53:58,120 Speaker 2: of who are fanatics. Fanatics are sports trading cards. So 1179 00:53:58,160 --> 00:54:02,680 Speaker 2: they're going to run live online auctions for trading cards 1180 00:54:02,719 --> 00:54:04,680 Speaker 2: value to more than one hundred thousand dollars. This is 1181 00:54:04,880 --> 00:54:07,120 Speaker 2: this is genuine business. This is just mucking around in 1182 00:54:07,200 --> 00:54:09,160 Speaker 2: your garage for five dollars here and ten doll say 1183 00:54:09,280 --> 00:54:11,479 Speaker 2: this is plus one hundred thousand dollars. First live auction 1184 00:54:12,000 --> 00:54:14,560 Speaker 2: in September in New York there's a forty eight leaf 1185 00:54:14,600 --> 00:54:17,319 Speaker 2: seventy nine Jackie Robinson, the only true collector's card of 1186 00:54:17,320 --> 00:54:18,880 Speaker 2: when he was a rookie. They think that'll go for 1187 00:54:18,920 --> 00:54:22,359 Speaker 2: about six seven hundred thousand dollars. So they're leaning into 1188 00:54:22,440 --> 00:54:24,520 Speaker 2: sport as well. So the media is leaning into sport, 1189 00:54:24,760 --> 00:54:27,399 Speaker 2: the gaming cards, the auction houses are leaning into sport. 1190 00:54:27,440 --> 00:54:32,279 Speaker 2: Women's sports. Sport is booming. Hence, I bring it back 1191 00:54:32,320 --> 00:54:35,399 Speaker 2: to the ongoing conversation around rugby in this country. Why 1192 00:54:35,520 --> 00:54:37,640 Speaker 2: is so much of it booming and other bits and 1193 00:54:37,640 --> 00:54:40,279 Speaker 2: pieces are not? And then that is your conundrum and 1194 00:54:40,320 --> 00:54:43,680 Speaker 2: of course a series of questions. Ten away from eight on. 1195 00:54:43,719 --> 00:54:47,480 Speaker 3: My Costkill Breakfast with Bailey's Real Estate news Talks be. 1196 00:54:47,640 --> 00:54:49,800 Speaker 2: Given away from it, So more insight into working parents 1197 00:54:49,840 --> 00:54:51,799 Speaker 2: and whether they should be entitled to more sickly So 1198 00:54:51,920 --> 00:54:54,920 Speaker 2: Frog Recruitment has polled more than seventeen hundred office workers, 1199 00:54:55,239 --> 00:54:57,600 Speaker 2: nine hundred and sixty nine of which we're working parents 1200 00:54:57,600 --> 00:54:59,359 Speaker 2: Now found that six hundred and twenty five are coming 1201 00:54:59,360 --> 00:55:01,360 Speaker 2: to work sick because they've run out of leave, and 1202 00:55:01,360 --> 00:55:03,799 Speaker 2: forty six percent appearance are using their own sick weave 1203 00:55:03,880 --> 00:55:06,000 Speaker 2: to stay home with an ill child. Now for Recruitment, 1204 00:55:06,000 --> 00:55:08,719 Speaker 2: managing director Shannon Barlow is with us. Shannon, very good 1205 00:55:08,719 --> 00:55:09,279 Speaker 2: morning to you. 1206 00:55:10,400 --> 00:55:10,960 Speaker 25: Good morning. 1207 00:55:11,080 --> 00:55:14,120 Speaker 2: It's the age old problem, isn't it? And the tricky 1208 00:55:14,160 --> 00:55:15,600 Speaker 2: thing with a problem is what do you do? Du 1209 00:55:15,719 --> 00:55:17,239 Speaker 2: do you just hand out more leave? What do you do? 1210 00:55:19,520 --> 00:55:19,719 Speaker 10: Yeah? 1211 00:55:19,800 --> 00:55:23,120 Speaker 25: I think that businesses just need to be aware of 1212 00:55:23,160 --> 00:55:28,160 Speaker 25: the impact and particularly with the incoming changes, that some 1213 00:55:28,280 --> 00:55:32,000 Speaker 25: groups of people might be more affected than others. So definitely, 1214 00:55:32,080 --> 00:55:37,000 Speaker 25: working parents are more likely to use up the quota of. 1215 00:55:39,960 --> 00:55:44,440 Speaker 2: She's gone, you're there, Shannon disappeared off the face of 1216 00:55:44,440 --> 00:55:46,600 Speaker 2: the earth morning. Mike's so sad that the people only 1217 00:55:46,680 --> 00:55:48,279 Speaker 2: have a focus on the price, if you'll never about 1218 00:55:48,280 --> 00:55:50,600 Speaker 2: the quality of service, the safety, the convenience, the cleanliness 1219 00:55:50,640 --> 00:55:52,319 Speaker 2: of the station. It's interesting you should say that because 1220 00:55:52,320 --> 00:55:54,800 Speaker 2: I was thinking about that exact same thing yesterday, because 1221 00:55:54,840 --> 00:55:58,160 Speaker 2: the more recent advice is that you go to the 1222 00:55:58,360 --> 00:56:01,759 Speaker 2: unmanned stations, and of course that it's fine because it's 1223 00:56:01,800 --> 00:56:03,480 Speaker 2: cheaper there and stuper there because you don't have to 1224 00:56:03,480 --> 00:56:06,320 Speaker 2: pay people, and so we're all about the people until 1225 00:56:06,320 --> 00:56:07,960 Speaker 2: we can save a bit of money. Then suddenly we're 1226 00:56:07,960 --> 00:56:10,480 Speaker 2: not about the people, aren't we? Shannon, Sorry, we interrupted 1227 00:56:10,480 --> 00:56:11,879 Speaker 2: you with technical issues. What were you say? 1228 00:56:13,280 --> 00:56:13,800 Speaker 22: All good? 1229 00:56:14,320 --> 00:56:17,160 Speaker 25: I was just saying that businesses need to be aware 1230 00:56:17,239 --> 00:56:21,480 Speaker 25: that some groups of people, for example, working parents, are 1231 00:56:21,480 --> 00:56:25,200 Speaker 25: more likely to use up that quota of sick leaves, 1232 00:56:25,880 --> 00:56:27,680 Speaker 25: so just to be aware of that. But I don't 1233 00:56:27,719 --> 00:56:31,239 Speaker 25: think that necessarily you need to issue out more than 1234 00:56:31,280 --> 00:56:35,080 Speaker 25: the ten days, but to really work together and to 1235 00:56:35,120 --> 00:56:38,000 Speaker 25: see something that's going to work well for the people 1236 00:56:38,040 --> 00:56:40,120 Speaker 25: as well as for the business as well. 1237 00:56:40,239 --> 00:56:43,160 Speaker 2: It's interesting your numbers nine sixty nine were working parents. 1238 00:56:43,160 --> 00:56:45,239 Speaker 2: Of that six hundred and twenty five, so let's say 1239 00:56:45,280 --> 00:56:47,960 Speaker 2: two thirds were coming to work sick because they've run 1240 00:56:48,000 --> 00:56:49,680 Speaker 2: out of leaves. So that's a lot of leave to 1241 00:56:49,760 --> 00:56:53,080 Speaker 2: run out because between yourself and your kids. Ten days 1242 00:56:53,160 --> 00:56:54,920 Speaker 2: is a not unreasonable amount, isn't it? 1243 00:56:56,640 --> 00:57:01,560 Speaker 25: Yeah, definitely. But what we saw there that a big 1244 00:57:01,640 --> 00:57:04,520 Speaker 25: proportion we're using their sick leave to care for kids, 1245 00:57:04,640 --> 00:57:08,959 Speaker 25: so forty seven percent. So if their children were sick, 1246 00:57:10,040 --> 00:57:12,520 Speaker 25: I think there were some worries that you know, worth 1247 00:57:12,600 --> 00:57:15,360 Speaker 25: working from home people would take advantage of that and 1248 00:57:15,400 --> 00:57:18,120 Speaker 25: they wouldn't really be working, and you know they're spending 1249 00:57:18,160 --> 00:57:21,480 Speaker 25: more time on caring. But that's obviously not happening. So 1250 00:57:21,560 --> 00:57:24,400 Speaker 25: they're doing the right thing. They can be trusted, but 1251 00:57:24,480 --> 00:57:27,400 Speaker 25: it does mean that it's going to eat into that 1252 00:57:27,560 --> 00:57:28,600 Speaker 25: sick leave entitlement. 1253 00:57:28,760 --> 00:57:31,000 Speaker 2: I wonder if the work from home things dissipated it 1254 00:57:31,040 --> 00:57:32,520 Speaker 2: a little bit, given that you know, there'll be a 1255 00:57:32,600 --> 00:57:34,520 Speaker 2: number of people who can when they have to work 1256 00:57:34,520 --> 00:57:35,720 Speaker 2: from home and it's no big deal. 1257 00:57:36,880 --> 00:57:39,800 Speaker 25: Yeah, definitely, So I think I was really surprised to 1258 00:57:39,840 --> 00:57:44,200 Speaker 25: see that the majority, so of that whole group, fifty 1259 00:57:44,240 --> 00:57:47,640 Speaker 25: percent had only used from zero so no sick days 1260 00:57:47,680 --> 00:57:50,880 Speaker 25: at all, up to three sick days. So again we're 1261 00:57:50,920 --> 00:57:54,280 Speaker 25: worried and increasing that entitlement double. No one's ever going 1262 00:57:54,280 --> 00:57:57,880 Speaker 25: to be at work, but that's definitely not happening, and 1263 00:57:57,960 --> 00:58:02,360 Speaker 25: that's not being abused, so it is that minority that 1264 00:58:03,000 --> 00:58:06,760 Speaker 25: eat through the whole ten days. But yeah, it's still 1265 00:58:06,800 --> 00:58:10,760 Speaker 25: an issue when you've got to be able to care 1266 00:58:10,760 --> 00:58:13,480 Speaker 25: for your final as well as yourself and make sure 1267 00:58:13,520 --> 00:58:15,880 Speaker 25: that you're looking after yourself and the others around you 1268 00:58:15,960 --> 00:58:16,360 Speaker 25: at work. 1269 00:58:16,600 --> 00:58:18,520 Speaker 2: Good stuff, Shannam, Nice to talk to you.

This changed 1273 00:58:25,520 --> 00:58:29,080 Speaker 2: mid to late nineties as craft was stronger and as 1274 00:58:29,120 --> 00:58:31,640 Speaker 2: a result saves fuel. However, great a chance of wind't you? 1275 00:58:31,680 --> 00:58:34,360 Speaker 2: Thank you Scott for your insight.

I don't want to get them too much 1316 01:00:36,760 --> 01:00:39,480 Speaker 13: into operations, but I just find it incredible that he's 1317 01:00:39,520 --> 01:00:43,600 Speaker 13: been able to elude police for this log. There's probably 1318 01:00:43,840 --> 01:00:46,760 Speaker 13: a feeling that maybe he's been assisted in help and 1319 01:00:46,880 --> 01:00:50,240 Speaker 13: getting some help. But obviously the police are ramping things up. 1320 01:00:50,240 --> 01:00:53,200 Speaker 13: They put a reward out there, now, you know, primarily 1321 01:00:53,200 --> 01:00:53,960 Speaker 13: around the children. 1322 01:00:54,640 --> 01:00:57,200 Speaker 2: In your experience, do they put rewards out when they're stuck? 1323 01:00:59,320 --> 01:01:01,880 Speaker 13: Well, the reward because they want to try and generate 1324 01:01:01,960 --> 01:01:04,040 Speaker 13: more support and more information that comes out of the 1325 01:01:04,080 --> 01:01:07,160 Speaker 13: community to help police locate her and of course get 1326 01:01:07,160 --> 01:01:10,040 Speaker 13: the kids speak out. And it can't be good for 1327 01:01:10,080 --> 01:01:12,360 Speaker 13: them at all, So that's why they've done it. 1328 01:01:12,400 --> 01:01:15,640 Speaker 2: Now, Jenny, what do your view as former police minister, 1329 01:01:15,800 --> 01:01:18,800 Speaker 2: when you offer somebody eighty thousand dollars and it may 1330 01:01:18,840 --> 01:01:21,920 Speaker 2: well be a person who's been assisting this particular criminal, 1331 01:01:22,640 --> 01:01:25,800 Speaker 2: and you offer potential immunity, do you sit comfortably with 1332 01:01:25,840 --> 01:01:27,280 Speaker 2: that or does that sit comfortably with you? 1333 01:01:28,320 --> 01:01:32,240 Speaker 27: It is concerning. Offering potential immunity to prosecution is quite 1334 01:01:32,280 --> 01:01:35,800 Speaker 27: significant and it's not done often, but when concerns are 1335 01:01:35,800 --> 01:01:39,080 Speaker 27: really with children, that's a significant amount of time to 1336 01:01:39,160 --> 01:01:44,480 Speaker 27: be away from other family and it's really concerning regarding 1337 01:01:44,520 --> 01:01:48,040 Speaker 27: the welfare of those kids. So in my view as 1338 01:01:48,120 --> 01:01:50,800 Speaker 27: warranted given the fact that these three kids out there, 1339 01:01:50,840 --> 01:01:52,280 Speaker 27: we don't know where they are and we want to 1340 01:01:52,320 --> 01:01:53,960 Speaker 27: make sure that they're hite okay. 1341 01:01:54,160 --> 01:01:56,160 Speaker 2: And then the second question for you Mark, once again 1342 01:01:56,200 --> 01:01:58,760 Speaker 2: not operationally speaking, but when we hear yesterday this dead 1343 01:01:58,800 --> 01:02:03,760 Speaker 2: baby in Tikawiti, and the dead baby was known previously 1344 01:02:04,040 --> 01:02:08,040 Speaker 2: to police for having a non accidental injury and yet 1345 01:02:08,080 --> 01:02:10,680 Speaker 2: while still with the parents, how does that work? 1346 01:02:11,840 --> 01:02:16,360 Speaker 13: Look Again, again, that is very operational and so that's 1347 01:02:16,400 --> 01:02:20,360 Speaker 13: an ongoing investigation, so it would be I just cannot 1348 01:02:20,400 --> 01:02:22,840 Speaker 13: speak to that, I'll be breaking a whole lot of 1349 01:02:22,920 --> 01:02:26,160 Speaker 13: rules as the Minister of Police. But in a broader sense, 1350 01:02:26,720 --> 01:02:28,320 Speaker 13: I think that there's still work to be done for 1351 01:02:28,400 --> 01:02:30,840 Speaker 13: us as a government in terms of making sure that 1352 01:02:30,840 --> 01:02:33,840 Speaker 13: we've got the legislation and settings right to protect our 1353 01:02:33,920 --> 01:02:37,520 Speaker 13: kids because you know, unfortunately we sort of we're not. 1354 01:02:37,600 --> 01:02:42,520 Speaker 13: We don't in terms of infant fatalities and injuries. It's 1355 01:02:42,520 --> 01:02:44,880 Speaker 13: still completely unacceptable in terms of us as a country 1356 01:02:44,880 --> 01:02:45,520 Speaker 13: and what we're doing with. 1357 01:02:45,640 --> 01:02:48,160 Speaker 2: Correct but Ginny broadened it out then more than I 1358 01:02:48,200 --> 01:02:52,560 Speaker 2: mean can do you? Can you explain why a child 1359 01:02:52,600 --> 01:02:56,560 Speaker 2: would a baby would be injured deliberately and then put 1360 01:02:56,560 --> 01:02:59,840 Speaker 2: back with the parents who did the injury and not 1361 01:03:00,000 --> 01:03:01,440 Speaker 2: taken off the pin. How does that work? 1362 01:03:02,080 --> 01:03:04,720 Speaker 27: It's just heartbreaking every time I read one, I just 1363 01:03:04,880 --> 01:03:06,760 Speaker 27: I can't you know, I can't see them what it 1364 01:03:06,800 --> 01:03:07,800 Speaker 27: would would they like? 1365 01:03:08,880 --> 01:03:09,360 Speaker 14: That? 1366 01:03:09,560 --> 01:03:09,600 Speaker 18: Is? 1367 01:03:10,640 --> 01:03:13,640 Speaker 27: That is the role of tomareki to intervene, to assess 1368 01:03:13,800 --> 01:03:16,600 Speaker 27: risk and make a decision. And it seems like those 1369 01:03:16,600 --> 01:03:17,760 Speaker 27: seatings still aren't right. 1370 01:03:18,640 --> 01:03:21,960 Speaker 2: So you're telling me just sorry, Marke, carry on, Well, 1371 01:03:22,120 --> 01:03:22,840 Speaker 2: I just say. 1372 01:03:22,680 --> 01:03:25,160 Speaker 13: That in relation to I rang the Tamaraiki with Karen 1373 01:03:25,240 --> 01:03:28,920 Speaker 13: Chules come under enormous criticism in the last month because 1374 01:03:28,920 --> 01:03:31,280 Speaker 13: she is putting kids back at the heart of the decisions, 1375 01:03:31,280 --> 01:03:36,040 Speaker 13: not adults, not family, family, the children. They're making sure 1376 01:03:36,080 --> 01:03:38,680 Speaker 13: the children are put somewhere where they're safe, and I 1377 01:03:38,720 --> 01:03:40,400 Speaker 13: think that there hasn't been happening for a while and 1378 01:03:40,440 --> 01:03:41,800 Speaker 13: she is very focused. 1379 01:03:41,400 --> 01:03:43,320 Speaker 16: On that outstanding. 1380 01:03:44,040 --> 01:03:46,760 Speaker 13: Well, well, I'm sorry, Jenny, she is making the changes, 1381 01:03:47,120 --> 01:03:49,520 Speaker 13: and you guys have been attacking and criticizing her, very 1382 01:03:49,560 --> 01:03:52,360 Speaker 13: personal attacks, and I think I beg her one hundred percent. 1383 01:03:52,360 --> 01:03:53,120 Speaker 11: You're doing the right. 1384 01:03:53,080 --> 01:03:56,960 Speaker 2: Okay, So that's it's slightly political. Just just come back 1385 01:03:56,960 --> 01:03:59,560 Speaker 2: to this particular case. So you're telling me, Jenny, so 1386 01:03:59,600 --> 01:04:02,720 Speaker 2: I rang the tamariki going. They know a baby's been 1387 01:04:02,760 --> 01:04:05,280 Speaker 2: and shured, buy the two people, and then they give 1388 01:04:05,320 --> 01:04:07,880 Speaker 2: that baby back to those parents, and that's their call 1389 01:04:07,960 --> 01:04:09,200 Speaker 2: and their call alone. 1390 01:04:09,920 --> 01:04:12,320 Speaker 27: Well, they will have access to information that I don't know. 1391 01:04:12,400 --> 01:04:14,840 Speaker 27: There will be a file on that that child, and 1392 01:04:14,880 --> 01:04:18,000 Speaker 27: there'll be a whole assessment on what the risk is 1393 01:04:18,160 --> 01:04:20,560 Speaker 27: and how to mitigate that risk, and then a decision 1394 01:04:20,680 --> 01:04:23,480 Speaker 27: is made whether to leave the child. 1395 01:04:23,640 --> 01:04:24,560 Speaker 2: With the parents or not. 1396 01:04:24,600 --> 01:04:27,440 Speaker 27: And it's a big decision to up from their parents. 1397 01:04:27,440 --> 01:04:30,080 Speaker 27: That's a huge decision to make, and so this is 1398 01:04:30,120 --> 01:04:32,520 Speaker 27: at the heart of all of these, you know, very 1399 01:04:32,560 --> 01:04:35,160 Speaker 27: big debates that we have without knowing all the particular 1400 01:04:35,240 --> 01:04:38,000 Speaker 27: details of the case, but making that choice for the 1401 01:04:38,080 --> 01:04:40,760 Speaker 27: state to uplift a child is a big one. Well 1402 01:04:40,840 --> 01:04:44,760 Speaker 27: versus the fatalities relate. The rate of fatalities and deaths 1403 01:04:44,800 --> 01:04:47,960 Speaker 27: homicides of babies that we are seeing is still just 1404 01:04:48,000 --> 01:04:51,200 Speaker 27: completely unacceptable. And what worries me even more is what 1405 01:04:51,240 --> 01:04:54,880 Speaker 27: about the ones that lives that have gone through years 1406 01:04:54,920 --> 01:04:57,840 Speaker 27: and years of physical abuse that then grow up to 1407 01:04:57,880 --> 01:05:00,160 Speaker 27: be young people. That there's hundreds and hundreds of those 1408 01:05:00,200 --> 01:05:02,880 Speaker 27: young people in New Zealand. We don't think about those. 1409 01:05:02,720 --> 01:05:05,520 Speaker 2: Okay, Mark, just briefly before the break of the Matters 1410 01:05:05,560 --> 01:05:08,760 Speaker 2: Mary Party investigation, do you welcome that? And does something 1411 01:05:08,880 --> 01:05:10,320 Speaker 2: smell not quite right to you? 1412 01:05:11,720 --> 01:05:11,919 Speaker 3: Yeah? 1413 01:05:11,920 --> 01:05:14,240 Speaker 13: I mean I think the Prime Ministers announced that the 1414 01:05:14,280 --> 01:05:16,800 Speaker 13: Public Service Commission is going to do a much broader 1415 01:05:16,800 --> 01:05:19,720 Speaker 13: investigation across all the agencies where because you know, it 1416 01:05:19,760 --> 01:05:23,200 Speaker 13: is very serious, extremely serious in terms of data breaches 1417 01:05:23,240 --> 01:05:26,800 Speaker 13: and whether or not it's impacted the outcome often elections. 1418 01:05:26,840 --> 01:05:29,000 Speaker 13: So yes, I do support what he's done. I think 1419 01:05:29,000 --> 01:05:30,800 Speaker 13: it's very important that we do that. It's important that 1420 01:05:30,840 --> 01:05:33,960 Speaker 13: the country has got confidence in our processes and systems. 1421 01:05:34,400 --> 01:05:37,080 Speaker 2: You back at Ginny, it's. 1422 01:05:36,960 --> 01:05:38,479 Speaker 27: Important they do it. I think you are a lot 1423 01:05:38,560 --> 01:05:42,280 Speaker 27: of different agencies being involved, so I think it's good 1424 01:05:42,280 --> 01:05:45,880 Speaker 27: the government has initiated a single independent review. 1425 01:05:46,240 --> 01:05:48,480 Speaker 2: Bri break more in a Moment, Jenny Anderson, Mark Mitchell 1426 01:05:48,520 --> 01:05:49,480 Speaker 2: thirteen past. 1427 01:05:50,360 --> 01:05:52,720 Speaker 3: The Mike Hosking Breakfast. 1428 01:05:52,000 --> 01:05:55,560 Speaker 2: Sixteen past eight Politics Wednesday, Mark Mitchell, Ginny Anderson once 1429 01:05:55,600 --> 01:05:57,840 Speaker 2: again an operational question mark. You don't have to delve 1430 01:05:57,880 --> 01:06:00,880 Speaker 2: into the specifics of it, but broadly speaking, the bus 1431 01:06:00,920 --> 01:06:04,400 Speaker 2: case in Dunedin where the changes have been laid and 1432 01:06:04,440 --> 01:06:07,200 Speaker 2: it was announced yesterday the case will go to court 1433 01:06:07,400 --> 01:06:10,880 Speaker 2: in twenty twenty six. What's going on. 1434 01:06:12,080 --> 01:06:14,000 Speaker 13: Just we've got a mess a backlog in our courts. 1435 01:06:14,040 --> 01:06:17,320 Speaker 13: We've got the whole criminal justice system needs a complete 1436 01:06:17,320 --> 01:06:20,000 Speaker 13: reset in alignment, and that's that's a big part of 1437 01:06:20,000 --> 01:06:22,280 Speaker 13: the work that we're doing. I agree, it's you know, 1438 01:06:23,000 --> 01:06:24,960 Speaker 13: justice delayed is justice denied, and we've got to get 1439 01:06:25,000 --> 01:06:25,760 Speaker 13: the courts fixed. 1440 01:06:25,920 --> 01:06:26,400 Speaker 3: That's time. 1441 01:06:26,880 --> 01:06:30,520 Speaker 2: But it's June twenty four, it's a year and a half, 1442 01:06:30,800 --> 01:06:32,720 Speaker 2: you know, and this is a serious crime. It's not 1443 01:06:32,760 --> 01:06:34,880 Speaker 2: like you know, it's some sort of scrap between a 1444 01:06:34,880 --> 01:06:37,160 Speaker 2: couple of millionaires who are bored. This is like, this 1445 01:06:37,240 --> 01:06:37,720 Speaker 2: is a crime. 1446 01:06:38,680 --> 01:06:41,640 Speaker 13: I agree with you, but sadly, unfortunately, this is what's 1447 01:06:41,680 --> 01:06:44,600 Speaker 13: been happening. And you know, I've got as the Corrections Minister, 1448 01:06:44,640 --> 01:06:47,160 Speaker 13: I've got fifty percent of the population, our coreactians at 1449 01:06:47,160 --> 01:06:50,760 Speaker 13: the moment are on remand you know it's a disgrace. 1450 01:06:50,760 --> 01:06:52,960 Speaker 13: We've got to get that fixed. That's why we just 1451 01:06:53,040 --> 01:06:56,000 Speaker 13: change legislation that we get to keep deliver programs to them. 1452 01:06:56,000 --> 01:06:57,840 Speaker 13: Why they're on remand because they haven't been getting any 1453 01:06:57,840 --> 01:07:00,919 Speaker 13: programs up until now. But look, we've got to fix 1454 01:07:00,960 --> 01:07:02,440 Speaker 13: the system without a doubt. We've got to get it 1455 01:07:02,440 --> 01:07:05,160 Speaker 13: far better aligned with news technology. There's a lot of 1456 01:07:05,160 --> 01:07:07,440 Speaker 13: things that we can do that can actually help with that. 1457 01:07:07,960 --> 01:07:09,800 Speaker 13: And there's a lot of going on around that. 1458 01:07:10,200 --> 01:07:11,880 Speaker 2: Is that a mess you left behind, Genny, not as 1459 01:07:11,920 --> 01:07:13,840 Speaker 2: police minister but in general and Justice minister. 1460 01:07:14,680 --> 01:07:15,280 Speaker 20: Well, we had a. 1461 01:07:15,240 --> 01:07:17,880 Speaker 27: Really good program in place called Reframe, and it's been 1462 01:07:18,240 --> 01:07:18,760 Speaker 27: not funded. 1463 01:07:18,800 --> 01:07:21,000 Speaker 2: No no, no, no no. The twenty twenty six. When you're 1464 01:07:21,080 --> 01:07:23,120 Speaker 2: charged with something serious, it doesn't go to court. 1465 01:07:23,400 --> 01:07:26,560 Speaker 27: That's the point I'm making is that reframe would produce 1466 01:07:26,600 --> 01:07:29,120 Speaker 27: better quality evidence at the scene of the crime so 1467 01:07:29,200 --> 01:07:31,600 Speaker 27: that cases don't fall over when they get to court. 1468 01:07:31,960 --> 01:07:34,360 Speaker 27: This is still a problem. So the ability to gather 1469 01:07:34,520 --> 01:07:38,200 Speaker 27: good quality evidence and submit it means a guilty plea 1470 01:07:39,320 --> 01:07:42,880 Speaker 27: the whole case. It's clean given in so. 1471 01:07:45,200 --> 01:07:47,320 Speaker 13: Reframe, they got no idea what it means. 1472 01:07:47,440 --> 01:07:49,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, so to do market that's why you did it, 1473 01:07:50,520 --> 01:07:53,040 Speaker 2: Jinny hold on a simple question. So I get charged 1474 01:07:53,080 --> 01:07:54,960 Speaker 2: with something yesterday and I'm not going to court until 1475 01:07:55,000 --> 01:07:57,760 Speaker 2: twenty twenty six. What's that got to do with reframe? 1476 01:07:58,600 --> 01:08:02,120 Speaker 27: So what would do speed up the court?

Contact your nearest retailer for more information pasking 1564 01:11:57,800 --> 01:11:59,719 Speaker 2: how speaking of EV's funnily enough for talking to chrstper 1565 01:11:59,800 --> 01:12:02,320 Speaker 2: likes in yesterday the Chinese premiers and the country later 1566 01:12:02,400 --> 01:12:04,800 Speaker 2: on this week are they'll be talking about the Orchist. 1567 01:12:04,840 --> 01:12:08,200 Speaker 2: They'll be talking about the CPTPP and the possibility that 1568 01:12:08,360 --> 01:12:11,200 Speaker 2: China can get into that particular arrangement. But of course 1569 01:12:11,320 --> 01:12:13,360 Speaker 2: they will fail at the hurdle. As has been sort 1570 01:12:13,360 --> 01:12:17,840 Speaker 2: of politely discussed, some of their trading habits are not 1571 01:12:18,000 --> 01:12:21,000 Speaker 2: to the like, and this will be played out in 1572 01:12:21,120 --> 01:12:23,360 Speaker 2: Europe later on this week.

So, in other words, 1577 01:12:32,680 --> 01:12:34,840 Speaker 2: the argument is that the Chinese government are tipping money 1578 01:12:34,920 --> 01:12:38,000 Speaker 2: into the manufacturing side of the equation and making the 1579 01:12:38,280 --> 01:12:44,240 Speaker 2: cars unrealistically affordable, suspiciously affordable, so affordable that somebody goes, hm, 1580 01:12:44,479 --> 01:12:45,960 Speaker 2: So I'm not sure you can make a car that cheap, 1581 01:12:45,960 --> 01:12:47,400 Speaker 2: but anyway, that's the way it's going to be. Somebody 1582 01:12:47,439 --> 01:12:50,599 Speaker 2: suggested actually the other day that the teriffs would need 1583 01:12:50,640 --> 01:12:54,320 Speaker 2: to be in excess of fifty percent for the Chinese 1584 01:12:54,400 --> 01:12:56,680 Speaker 2: manufacturers to go geez, that's a bit much.

If they 1637 01:15:34,360 --> 01:15:35,519 Speaker 2: are going to be part of it, how do we 1638 01:15:35,640 --> 01:15:38,800 Speaker 2: price methane YadA, YadA, YadA, all part of Paris, and 1639 01:15:38,960 --> 01:15:40,679 Speaker 2: whether or not we're ever going to reach the target. 1640 01:15:40,800 --> 01:15:43,679 Speaker 2: And I think you are right because you called it early. 1641 01:15:43,840 --> 01:15:48,680 Speaker 2: Dutton's onto something with this because I think that the 1642 01:15:48,840 --> 01:15:51,720 Speaker 2: chances of people believing we're going to get there is 1643 01:15:51,880 --> 01:15:53,280 Speaker 2: diminishing by the day, isn't it. 1644 01:15:54,840 --> 01:15:57,439 Speaker 12: And Peter Dutton has now set us up for a 1645 01:15:57,640 --> 01:16:00,920 Speaker 12: climate war election. There's no doubt that he came out 1646 01:16:01,320 --> 01:16:04,040 Speaker 12: at the weekend and then again yesterday. What he's basically 1647 01:16:04,120 --> 01:16:06,920 Speaker 12: said is, look, you can stay signed up to Paris. 1648 01:16:07,240 --> 01:16:11,160 Speaker 12: You can talk about twenty fifty and net zero by then. Okay, 1649 01:16:11,439 --> 01:16:14,479 Speaker 12: I know that my previous government signed this, but as 1650 01:16:14,560 --> 01:16:16,360 Speaker 12: for twenty thirty, you can forget it. You're not going 1651 01:16:16,400 --> 01:16:18,920 Speaker 12: to get there. So why do we keep trying to 1652 01:16:19,000 --> 01:16:21,840 Speaker 12: bash the economy to get to reach a target that 1653 01:16:21,880 --> 01:16:24,960 Speaker 12: we're never going to achieve? And so that immediately triggered 1654 01:16:25,600 --> 01:16:27,640 Speaker 12: a second day in a row media conference from the 1655 01:16:27,680 --> 01:16:31,639 Speaker 12: Prime Minister Anthony Albanezi. He initially came out to talk 1656 01:16:31,640 --> 01:16:35,599 Speaker 12: about what we'll speak about next is the Chinese premier visiting, 1657 01:16:35,720 --> 01:16:39,320 Speaker 12: but he quickly turned on Dutton and he has started 1658 01:16:40,080 --> 01:16:46,240 Speaker 12: to try and rip apart Dutton's climate change credentials. He's 1659 01:16:46,320 --> 01:16:48,600 Speaker 12: basically saying that Dutton's going to ruin the world and 1660 01:16:48,880 --> 01:16:51,960 Speaker 12: it's all dreadful. But Peter Dutton simply said, look, you 1661 01:16:52,040 --> 01:16:54,920 Speaker 12: can please all the people you like in Paris, that's fine, 1662 01:16:55,040 --> 01:16:57,439 Speaker 12: but I'm going to take care of people at home now. 1663 01:16:57,479 --> 01:17:01,920 Speaker 12: If that's not a powerful election message, basically, when the 1664 01:17:01,960 --> 01:17:04,360 Speaker 12: strate is in a recession and people can't afford to 1665 01:17:04,360 --> 01:17:06,680 Speaker 12: put food on the table and their power bills through 1666 01:17:06,720 --> 01:17:09,080 Speaker 12: the roof, I don't know what is. And this is 1667 01:17:09,360 --> 01:17:15,400 Speaker 12: aimed interestingly at outer suburban seats that the Coalition needs 1668 01:17:15,520 --> 01:17:18,560 Speaker 12: to win off labor, which don't have great margins that 1669 01:17:18,760 --> 01:17:21,840 Speaker 12: surround the cities of Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne. It's a 1670 01:17:21,880 --> 01:17:25,320 Speaker 12: pretty basic political strategy. But if he can pull it off, 1671 01:17:25,600 --> 01:17:29,639 Speaker 12: he's a genius. If he doesn't, and Albanezi will fight 1672 01:17:29,680 --> 01:17:31,400 Speaker 12: all the way to the election. So this blokes at 1673 01:17:31,439 --> 01:17:35,080 Speaker 12: climate criminal. Then he's not going to win. But you've 1674 01:17:35,120 --> 01:17:38,360 Speaker 12: now got a choice. Now you can back potentially nuclear 1675 01:17:38,439 --> 01:17:41,479 Speaker 12: down the road and reality in the meantime, or you 1676 01:17:41,520 --> 01:17:45,240 Speaker 12: can go for lots of wind turbines and solar panels 1677 01:17:45,280 --> 01:17:47,000 Speaker 12: and hope that you get some target that's going to 1678 01:17:47,040 --> 01:17:48,040 Speaker 12: please somebody not here. 1679 01:17:48,360 --> 01:17:51,280 Speaker 2: See, he's got an increasingly good suite of ite. And 1680 01:17:51,400 --> 01:17:55,080 Speaker 2: so you got your nuclear, you've got your climate, you've 1681 01:17:55,080 --> 01:17:57,439 Speaker 2: got the cock up of the government, and all the 1682 01:17:57,439 --> 01:17:59,400 Speaker 2: people have been let out of jail, and then you've 1683 01:17:59,400 --> 01:18:02,280 Speaker 2: got the cost of living crisis going on. Between all 1684 01:18:02,360 --> 01:18:04,439 Speaker 2: of that, you should be able to package up something 1685 01:18:04,880 --> 01:18:06,840 Speaker 2: in a campaign that points to the government not being 1686 01:18:06,920 --> 01:18:07,280 Speaker 2: very good. 1687 01:18:08,080 --> 01:18:10,680 Speaker 12: Yes, and you won't get The Reserve Bank won't cut 1688 01:18:11,080 --> 01:18:14,000 Speaker 12: interest rates in Australia until next year. Most economists are 1689 01:18:14,000 --> 01:18:17,160 Speaker 12: saying the first quarter of twenty twenty five. So if 1690 01:18:17,360 --> 01:18:22,320 Speaker 12: Anthony Albneasy, as I'm increasingly GUESSINGSN decides to go to 1691 01:18:22,320 --> 01:18:25,880 Speaker 12: an election, probably in early December, then there won't be 1692 01:18:25,960 --> 01:18:28,640 Speaker 12: a rate cut. So you've got the thirteen interest rate 1693 01:18:28,760 --> 01:18:31,840 Speaker 12: rises in the row as well as ammunition. 1694 01:18:32,200 --> 01:18:35,240 Speaker 2: A Chinese premier coming here going there. I mean, jeez, 1695 01:18:35,479 --> 01:18:38,880 Speaker 2: what a contrast in terms of relationship given Barley and 1696 01:18:39,000 --> 01:18:41,960 Speaker 2: wine and beef and Morrison and COVID and all that 1697 01:18:42,040 --> 01:18:42,559 Speaker 2: sort of stuff. 1698 01:18:44,000 --> 01:18:46,560 Speaker 12: Yeah, look, I mean Anthony Aberneze is very pleased that 1699 01:18:46,720 --> 01:18:48,040 Speaker 12: the Chinese premier is coming. 1700 01:18:48,520 --> 01:18:49,960 Speaker 13: He's only here for a few days. 1701 01:18:50,960 --> 01:18:54,639 Speaker 12: Interesting itinery he's going to Camber obviously have a state 1702 01:18:54,720 --> 01:18:57,400 Speaker 12: dinner with Anthony albit Easy at Parliament House in the 1703 01:18:57,439 --> 01:18:58,040 Speaker 12: Great Hall. 1704 01:18:57,960 --> 01:18:58,559 Speaker 3: While he's here. 1705 01:18:59,280 --> 01:19:01,519 Speaker 12: But the other player as he's going and not Melbourne, 1706 01:19:01,600 --> 01:19:04,080 Speaker 12: not Sydney. He's going to Adelaide and going to Perth 1707 01:19:04,200 --> 01:19:07,559 Speaker 12: now as a former Adelaide and I can only presume 1708 01:19:07,600 --> 01:19:08,880 Speaker 12: he's going to go there and talk to the state 1709 01:19:08,920 --> 01:19:11,839 Speaker 12: coming about those pandas. Did you know we had Chinese 1710 01:19:11,920 --> 01:19:14,639 Speaker 12: pandas and the Adelaide zoo that have never been able 1711 01:19:14,720 --> 01:19:18,599 Speaker 12: to procreate. They're on loan and there's been some great 1712 01:19:18,800 --> 01:19:21,120 Speaker 12: fear that the Chinese want to come and get them back. 1713 01:19:21,760 --> 01:19:22,680 Speaker 13: I presume with. 1714 01:19:23,360 --> 01:19:25,280 Speaker 12: Premier League going to Adelaide, he's going to say, oh, 1715 01:19:25,360 --> 01:19:28,200 Speaker 12: no notice, you can keep your pandas, but we want 1716 01:19:28,280 --> 01:19:31,599 Speaker 12: your lobsters. Because South Australia is a huge producer of lobsters, 1717 01:19:31,640 --> 01:19:34,160 Speaker 12: which have been banned in China, so they open the 1718 01:19:34,200 --> 01:19:36,640 Speaker 12: lobsters up. Then he goes to Perth. Why would a 1719 01:19:36,760 --> 01:19:38,800 Speaker 12: Chinese politician. 1720 01:19:38,360 --> 01:19:39,080 Speaker 3: Go to Wa. 1721 01:19:39,920 --> 01:19:41,519 Speaker 12: Well, he's going to go and see the trains and 1722 01:19:41,600 --> 01:19:44,000 Speaker 12: ships full of iron or that keep pouring out of 1723 01:19:44,200 --> 01:19:46,000 Speaker 12: Wa to go to the Chinese steel works. 1724 01:19:46,040 --> 01:19:49,240 Speaker 2: That's why exactly all right now the fourteen yard gee 1725 01:19:49,320 --> 01:19:51,360 Speaker 2: Melbourne such a classy place. So you've got the fourteen 1726 01:19:51,439 --> 01:19:54,120 Speaker 2: year old on a crime spree after being bailed. 1727 01:19:55,439 --> 01:19:57,439 Speaker 12: He's one of the worst child offenders. Three hundred and 1728 01:19:57,479 --> 01:19:59,600 Speaker 12: eighty eight charges have been struck out because of his 1729 01:19:59,720 --> 01:20:02,240 Speaker 12: age because in under new laws in this state, it 1730 01:20:02,320 --> 01:20:06,000 Speaker 12: can't be a criminal at fourteen. His latest spree listen 1731 01:20:06,080 --> 01:20:09,400 Speaker 12: to their six burglaries in six hours, stole a woman's 1732 01:20:09,479 --> 01:20:12,160 Speaker 12: car at nine point, broke into a couple's home as 1733 01:20:12,240 --> 01:20:16,880 Speaker 12: their baby slept. This bloke or this teenager his escaped 1734 01:20:16,880 --> 01:20:21,760 Speaker 12: from residential care twenty three times since December, accused of 1735 01:20:21,840 --> 01:20:24,679 Speaker 12: being among a group that smashed into booze and lotto 1736 01:20:24,840 --> 01:20:30,240 Speaker 12: shops with a sledgehammer. Police stopped the stolen car then 1737 01:20:30,360 --> 01:20:34,719 Speaker 12: found a sledgehammer inside. The boy, who has extremely limited 1738 01:20:34,840 --> 01:20:39,120 Speaker 12: moral reasoning according to the court, as well connected sort 1739 01:20:39,200 --> 01:20:44,479 Speaker 12: bail again in April. Here's the zinger. The magistrate refused 1740 01:20:44,479 --> 01:20:46,840 Speaker 12: his most recent bail. We'd heard the team who is 1741 01:20:46,960 --> 01:20:50,479 Speaker 12: on a refugee visa had already committed three hundred and 1742 01:20:50,520 --> 01:20:52,439 Speaker 12: eighty eight criminal charges since May. 1743 01:20:53,439 --> 01:20:54,920 Speaker 2: So what do you do with them? If you can't 1744 01:20:55,080 --> 01:20:57,080 Speaker 2: charge them or will block them up, what do you 1745 01:20:57,160 --> 01:20:59,160 Speaker 2: do with them? Obviously get them out. 1746 01:20:59,720 --> 01:21:02,240 Speaker 12: Hope you lock your door and he doesn't turn up 1747 01:21:02,240 --> 01:21:04,560 Speaker 12: at your place. And it's just ridiculous. He can't be 1748 01:21:04,640 --> 01:21:06,520 Speaker 12: held criminally responsible. 1749 01:21:06,640 --> 01:21:09,519 Speaker 2: It's just crazy amazing. All right, might go, We'll see 1750 01:21:09,560 --> 01:21:12,040 Speaker 2: next week. Steve Price out of Australia. Who cares Mike 1751 01:21:12,040 --> 01:21:14,280 Speaker 2: about the Paris Agreement. It's non binding. Well, a lot 1752 01:21:14,320 --> 01:21:15,880 Speaker 2: of people care about it. That's the point, and that's 1753 01:21:15,880 --> 01:21:17,960 Speaker 2: why it's so political a lot of people. It's non binding. 1754 01:21:18,000 --> 01:21:20,120 Speaker 2: Of course, it's non binding. The EU election results show 1755 01:21:20,160 --> 01:21:23,800 Speaker 2: people rebelling on unreasonable policy. That point was made earlier 1756 01:21:23,840 --> 01:21:25,920 Speaker 2: on in the program, and I think there's something in it. 1757 01:21:26,320 --> 01:21:29,679 Speaker 2: I think you can take a broad based idea thrash 1758 01:21:29,760 --> 01:21:34,000 Speaker 2: it so hard in the interim period it becomes clearly unrealistic. 1759 01:21:34,080 --> 01:21:37,560 Speaker 2: And we're talking about the farmers and the emissions, and 1760 01:21:37,600 --> 01:21:40,000 Speaker 2: you're talking about the renewable energy that doesn't work in 1761 01:21:40,040 --> 01:21:41,720 Speaker 2: the cold winter mornings and all those sort of things, 1762 01:21:41,760 --> 01:21:44,160 Speaker 2: and as it becomes increasingly unrealistic, you think, well, what's 1763 01:21:44,160 --> 01:21:46,000 Speaker 2: the point. How much damage do we do with the economy. 1764 01:21:46,400 --> 01:21:48,479 Speaker 2: Dutton appears to have worked that out and it seems 1765 01:21:48,479 --> 01:21:50,439 Speaker 2: to be milking it for all it's worth eight forty 1766 01:21:50,520 --> 01:21:55,920 Speaker 2: five the costly racers just last night speaking of renewables. 1767 01:21:56,000 --> 01:21:57,920 Speaker 2: Last night on a current affair in Australia, about three 1768 01:21:57,960 --> 01:22:01,240 Speaker 2: and a half million Australians had the solar on their roof. 1769 01:22:01,320 --> 01:22:03,400 Speaker 2: They received money from the power companies. That's all about 1770 01:22:03,439 --> 01:22:05,559 Speaker 2: to change. It's calling a sun tax, or what they're 1771 01:22:05,600 --> 01:22:08,320 Speaker 2: calling a sun tax. The power companies are soon going 1772 01:22:08,360 --> 01:22:09,880 Speaker 2: to I've told you about this on the program before, 1773 01:22:09,920 --> 01:22:11,559 Speaker 2: but Channel nine just caught up with the last night, 1774 01:22:11,960 --> 01:22:14,640 Speaker 2: which is ironic given there there and I'm here. But nevertheless, 1775 01:22:14,760 --> 01:22:17,240 Speaker 2: the power companies are going to charge you now. So 1776 01:22:17,320 --> 01:22:20,720 Speaker 2: if you remember back to the original argument, will subsidize 1777 01:22:20,760 --> 01:22:22,920 Speaker 2: you into solar power. And the good thing is that 1778 01:22:23,000 --> 01:22:24,800 Speaker 2: you can take that solar power and you can give 1779 01:22:24,840 --> 01:22:26,519 Speaker 2: it back to the network and the network will pay 1780 01:22:26,600 --> 01:22:28,400 Speaker 2: you money for it and you think, oh, how fantastic 1781 01:22:28,520 --> 01:22:30,120 Speaker 2: is this. Well, all of that happened till it didn't. 1782 01:22:30,600 --> 01:22:32,120 Speaker 2: And so what happened to so many people went and 1783 01:22:32,200 --> 01:22:34,120 Speaker 2: got solar panels, which is fantastic if that's what you 1784 01:22:34,160 --> 01:22:36,360 Speaker 2: want to do, But then that disrupted the market to 1785 01:22:36,400 --> 01:22:38,360 Speaker 2: such an extent that the power companies thought, hold on, 1786 01:22:38,479 --> 01:22:40,559 Speaker 2: we can't afford to be paying people for this because 1787 01:22:40,800 --> 01:22:44,120 Speaker 2: we're not selling enough power anymore. Because we're not we 1788 01:22:44,200 --> 01:22:46,240 Speaker 2: don't have enough customers because they've all gone and got 1789 01:22:46,320 --> 01:22:48,560 Speaker 2: solar panels. So I'll tell you what we'll do. I know, 1790 01:22:48,760 --> 01:22:52,519 Speaker 2: we'll charge the customers. Marcus, who was on it last 1791 01:22:52,600 --> 01:22:55,400 Speaker 2: night on the television program, it's ridiculous now that they 1792 01:22:55,640 --> 01:22:58,320 Speaker 2: encouraged you to do solo for fifteen years and now 1793 01:22:58,360 --> 01:23:01,400 Speaker 2: they're going to smack us and we can't export it anymore. 1794 01:23:01,439 --> 01:23:03,879 Speaker 2: So Marcus should have read the fine print thought it through. 1795 01:23:03,760 --> 01:23:05,639 Speaker 14: Before he actually, I mean, it's only on sunny days 1796 01:23:05,640 --> 01:23:06,240 Speaker 14: that there happens. 1797 01:23:06,360 --> 01:23:09,519 Speaker 2: It's exactly, there are sunny days in Australia and there 1798 01:23:09,760 --> 01:23:13,720 Speaker 2: we come to Taiwan. Three major outages power in the 1799 01:23:13,840 --> 01:23:17,160 Speaker 2: last seven years, slew of smaller disruptions in the past year, 1800 01:23:17,200 --> 01:23:21,320 Speaker 2: they'reinto an electricity what they're calling a crunch. Taiwan relies 1801 01:23:21,360 --> 01:23:23,639 Speaker 2: on imports for over ninety seven percent of their energy needs. 1802 01:23:23,720 --> 01:23:26,640 Speaker 2: Mainly it's coal, mainly its gas. Here's the problem with it. 1803 01:23:26,760 --> 01:23:28,960 Speaker 2: So in twenty twenty two there were three hundred and 1804 01:23:29,040 --> 01:23:31,920 Speaker 2: thirteen think about how many days in the year. There 1805 01:23:31,960 --> 01:23:35,080 Speaker 2: were three hundred and thirteen power outage incidents. Big one 1806 01:23:35,280 --> 01:23:37,560 Speaker 2: last year affected five million households. Another big one in 1807 01:23:37,600 --> 01:23:42,200 Speaker 2: twenty seventeen affected seven million households. Aging grid, and what 1808 01:23:42,360 --> 01:23:44,880 Speaker 2: are they that's important when it comes to power. They 1809 01:23:44,920 --> 01:23:48,800 Speaker 2: are the world's biggest semiconductor powerhouse, so they make more semiconductors. 1810 01:23:48,920 --> 01:23:51,040 Speaker 2: But you need power to make semiconductors, and a lot 1811 01:23:51,160 --> 01:23:53,479 Speaker 2: of it. So they run this weird system. I didn't 1812 01:23:53,479 --> 01:23:55,320 Speaker 2: realize this part. So they've got an aging grid that's 1813 01:23:55,360 --> 01:23:59,240 Speaker 2: bad enough, and as a result of Taiwant's underpriced electricity 1814 01:23:59,320 --> 01:24:02,240 Speaker 2: bills drives demand and leads to supply shortfalls. In other words, 1815 01:24:02,280 --> 01:24:04,479 Speaker 2: they make electricity super cheap, so you use more often. 1816 01:24:04,479 --> 01:24:07,360 Speaker 2: They can't produce more. They recently hike their electricity rates 1817 01:24:07,400 --> 01:24:10,320 Speaker 2: by fifteen percent for large industrial users made no difference. 1818 01:24:11,000 --> 01:24:14,920 Speaker 2: The Taiwan Power Company or Thaie Power have been racking 1819 01:24:15,000 --> 01:24:18,920 Speaker 2: up losses for years. Their reported pre tax loss just 1820 01:24:19,080 --> 01:24:23,400 Speaker 2: last year was six point three billion dollars losing money, 1821 01:24:24,160 --> 01:24:26,240 Speaker 2: and the year before it was even bigger. So the 1822 01:24:26,840 --> 01:24:30,920 Speaker 2: provider loses money. They haven't got enough power. They bring 1823 01:24:31,040 --> 01:24:33,479 Speaker 2: all the coal and the gas in to make the power, 1824 01:24:34,080 --> 01:24:37,040 Speaker 2: the power goes out and the world's relying on them 1825 01:24:37,080 --> 01:24:38,120 Speaker 2: to make semiconductors. 1826 01:24:38,200 --> 01:24:40,720 Speaker 14: So what we need to do is pair them up 1827 01:24:40,800 --> 01:24:43,320 Speaker 14: with the Australian people who've got solar panels on their roof. 1828 01:24:43,360 --> 01:24:46,519 Speaker 2: If we can give themselves solar panel from Kuba PD 1829 01:24:47,120 --> 01:24:51,799 Speaker 2: to Taiwan, match made in Electricity Heaven nine to nine. 1830 01:24:53,040 --> 01:24:56,640 Speaker 3: The Mike Cosking Breakfast where the Januar news to b. 1831 01:24:58,400 --> 01:25:02,439 Speaker 2: Becoming a totalitarian state. It's my great sadness around Hong Kong. 1832 01:25:02,800 --> 01:25:04,880 Speaker 2: Somebody text me last time I raised this on the program, 1833 01:25:05,200 --> 01:25:07,200 Speaker 2: when I suggested that Hong Kong was being ruined by 1834 01:25:07,240 --> 01:25:09,560 Speaker 2: the Chinese. They textas said, you don't notice, I'm not 1835 01:25:09,600 --> 01:25:13,599 Speaker 2: sure that's true. British judge is resigned overnight from Hong 1836 01:25:13,680 --> 01:25:16,760 Speaker 2: Kong's highest court warned the city you're slowly becoming a 1837 01:25:16,840 --> 01:25:21,200 Speaker 2: totalitarian state. They're becoming compromised by an impossible political environment 1838 01:25:21,320 --> 01:25:24,200 Speaker 2: created by a China This guy called Lord Sumpton. He's 1839 01:25:24,320 --> 01:25:29,040 Speaker 2: the third senior foreign judge in the past week resigned 1840 01:25:29,080 --> 01:25:31,720 Speaker 2: from the Court of Final Appeal. Problem in Hong Kong 1841 01:25:31,760 --> 01:25:33,560 Speaker 2: has been building up over the last four years, and 1842 01:25:33,600 --> 01:25:35,360 Speaker 2: I think all the judges on the court feel concerned 1843 01:25:35,400 --> 01:25:39,400 Speaker 2: about this. How to ruin a place in one easy 1844 01:25:39,600 --> 01:25:41,160 Speaker 2: lesson used to be a martyr space I'm just not 1845 01:25:41,240 --> 01:25:43,559 Speaker 2: convinced it is any more. Five minutes away from nine. 1846 01:25:43,600 --> 01:25:48,080 Speaker 21: Trending now West Warehouse for the whole of big brand skincare. 1847 01:25:48,280 --> 01:25:50,720 Speaker 2: Now, this is interesting because a bit of being made 1848 01:25:50,720 --> 01:25:53,120 Speaker 2: about this this morning, and it goes to the I 1849 01:25:53,240 --> 01:25:55,640 Speaker 2: suppose the complexity of the news cycle. So this is 1850 01:25:55,720 --> 01:25:59,439 Speaker 2: Kevin Spacey. He's appeared with I think he's on Twitter 1851 01:25:59,439 --> 01:26:03,840 Speaker 2: these days, Xisney Morgan keeping it with pers Morgan on 1852 01:26:04,000 --> 01:26:06,280 Speaker 2: YouTube of course YouTube and X because he was on 1853 01:26:06,400 --> 01:26:08,240 Speaker 2: wherever he was and he's quit and moved on to 1854 01:26:08,280 --> 01:26:10,960 Speaker 2: them on the internet.

It's not a shock at all unless 1858 01:26:19,680 --> 01:26:22,400 Speaker 2: he's saying something I haven't heard before. But he's freely 1859 01:26:22,439 --> 01:26:25,080 Speaker 2: admitted he was too handsy before touch someone sexually when 1860 01:26:25,080 --> 01:26:27,320 Speaker 2: they didn't want him to. He's been acquitted on all 1861 01:26:27,360 --> 01:26:30,280 Speaker 2: these charges. But he's talking about when the allegations are 1862 01:26:30,280 --> 01:26:33,840 Speaker 2: first thrown at you in twenty seventeen, the bill's quickly 1863 01:26:33,920 --> 01:26:34,320 Speaker 2: wracked up. 1864 01:26:34,479 --> 01:26:35,040 Speaker 12: Where'd you live? 1865 01:26:35,120 --> 01:26:46,240 Speaker 28: No, Well, it's funny you asked that question, because this 1866 01:26:46,439 --> 01:26:50,920 Speaker 28: week where I have been living in Baltimore is being 1867 01:26:51,000 --> 01:26:54,040 Speaker 28: foreclosed on. My house is being sold at auction. Really, 1868 01:26:55,520 --> 01:26:59,280 Speaker 28: so I have to go back to Baltimore and put 1869 01:26:59,360 --> 01:27:01,680 Speaker 28: on my things in storage. Why is it being foreclosed 1870 01:27:01,720 --> 01:27:05,120 Speaker 28: because I can't pay the bills that I owe? How 1871 01:27:05,200 --> 01:27:05,920 Speaker 28: much money do you have? 1872 01:27:07,280 --> 01:27:11,880 Speaker 3: None? I still owe a lot of legal bills. 1873 01:27:12,080 --> 01:27:13,519 Speaker 2: Do you mind me asking how much you are? 1874 01:27:13,960 --> 01:27:15,719 Speaker 3: Millions? Many millions? 1875 01:27:15,800 --> 01:27:15,960 Speaker 7: Yes? 1876 01:27:16,800 --> 01:27:17,439 Speaker 9: What are you going to do? 1877 01:27:18,920 --> 01:27:19,920 Speaker 3: Get back on the horse. 1878 01:27:20,760 --> 01:27:23,000 Speaker 2: See that's the interesting thing about the whole Kevin Spacey 1879 01:27:23,080 --> 01:27:25,160 Speaker 2: story if you followed it, and you should, because I 1880 01:27:25,160 --> 01:27:26,960 Speaker 2: have been going on for a good number of years now, 1881 01:27:27,840 --> 01:27:30,439 Speaker 2: and at some point you've got to feel, at least 1882 01:27:30,479 --> 01:27:33,040 Speaker 2: in part sorry for him. If for no other reason. 1883 01:27:34,400 --> 01:27:36,680 Speaker 2: No one's stuck a thing on him. There have been 1884 01:27:36,880 --> 01:27:40,519 Speaker 2: any number of allegations and nothing has stuck. And when 1885 01:27:40,600 --> 01:27:43,679 Speaker 2: nothing sticks, what's the artworking of it? And the artworking 1886 01:27:43,760 --> 01:27:46,320 Speaker 2: is his life is ruined. So it seems very easy 1887 01:27:46,360 --> 01:27:47,720 Speaker 2: to go, yeah, he did this, he did that, he 1888 01:27:47,760 --> 01:27:49,599 Speaker 2: did the next thing from what I and I don't 1889 01:27:49,640 --> 01:27:51,400 Speaker 2: know the guy from a bar, reside from what I've done. 1890 01:27:51,439 --> 01:27:56,400 Speaker 2: In all my reading of it, he was clearly an overt, flirtatious, 1891 01:27:57,280 --> 01:28:04,360 Speaker 2: probably at times repugnant operator in social settings. But that 1892 01:28:04,520 --> 01:28:07,720 Speaker 2: doesn't make you a criminal, but it would appear now 1893 01:28:07,840 --> 01:28:10,000 Speaker 2: he's seen as a criminal. The fact that he's not 1894 01:28:10,080 --> 01:28:12,639 Speaker 2: been found guilty of anything anywhere doesn't seem to matter 1895 01:28:12,720 --> 01:28:15,840 Speaker 2: to anybody, and his life's tipped up. And so now 1896 01:28:15,920 --> 01:28:18,400 Speaker 2: there's a movement in Hollywood where a number of people 1897 01:28:18,400 --> 01:28:20,040 Speaker 2: are getting on board and saying, we'll hold on. If 1898 01:28:20,080 --> 01:28:22,320 Speaker 2: you've got nothing and there is no criminal conviction, then maybe, 1899 01:28:22,520 --> 01:28:23,640 Speaker 2: you know, we want to give him a break, and 1900 01:28:23,680 --> 01:28:24,920 Speaker 2: if he wants to work, he should be able to 1901 01:28:24,960 --> 01:28:27,920 Speaker 2: get back to work and do some stuff. It's far 1902 01:28:28,000 --> 01:28:29,840 Speaker 2: from over, too, is the other interesting thing about that. 1903 01:28:30,000 --> 01:28:32,760 Speaker 2: Back tomorrow morning, there's always Happy Days. 1904 01:28:39,520 --> 01:28:42,360 Speaker 1: For more from the mic Asking Breakfast, listen live to 1905 01:28:42,520 --> 01:28:45,559 Speaker 1: news talks it'd be from six am weekdays, or follow 1906 01:28:45,640 --> 01:28:47,160 Speaker 1: the podcast on iHeartRadio
