Six days 5 00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:16,599 Speaker 2: turn out to be a booming business. Polls to Henry Olsen, 6 00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:18,279 Speaker 2: Back to work us through the vote in the US, 7 00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:21,479 Speaker 2: David Cohen and as long awaited, Just Sindra a durnbook 8 00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:23,919 Speaker 2: in after Right, Joe McKenna and Rome Rod Little pops 9 00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:27,480 Speaker 2: in from England pass They're morning seven past six to 10 00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:29,479 Speaker 2: tell you what I'm hoping events this week, at least 11 00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:32,240 Speaker 2: in some small way teach us all a simple economic 12 00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:35,320 Speaker 2: lesson or two lessen one the red meat numbers, we 13 00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:37,400 Speaker 2: export a fortune and meet to the world. The critical 14 00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:40,200 Speaker 2: part of it is it is the best of quality. 15 00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:44,319 Speaker 2: Quality will always beat quantity. Why because the world will 16 00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:47,600 Speaker 2: always contain large numbers of people unaffected by economic tides 17 00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:50,479 Speaker 2: and people with money like good stuff. There are some 18 00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:54,600 Speaker 2: things in life beyond the prevailing tide. Chateau Lafitte, Buchetti, cars, rollicks, 19 00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:57,280 Speaker 2: watches and New Zealand meeting quite possibly in New Zealand. 20 00:00:57,280 --> 00:00:59,640 Speaker 2: Why not literally of course, but you get my point. Onions, 21 00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:02,880 Speaker 2: we'll sell better in Europe because of our FTA with 22 00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:05,119 Speaker 2: the EU. We need fewer tariffs in that case, because 23 00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:08,480 Speaker 2: onions are onions. But meat is about quality, like Kiwi fruit, 24 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,160 Speaker 2: like great Bordeaux wine is. That's not to say that 25 00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:13,840 Speaker 2: tariff's a good business, because they are not. And Lord 26 00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:15,640 Speaker 2: only knows how rich we could be if the world 27 00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 2: really was truly taroff free. But for the here and now, 28 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:22,080 Speaker 2: our red meat numbers into America are unaffected because people 29 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:26,200 Speaker 2: will pay for quality lesson too, the job numbers more 30 00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 2: people young people have stayed or gone back to school 31 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,200 Speaker 2: because of they didn't, they'd be jobless. The fifteen to 32 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:33,880 Speaker 2: twenty four age group yesterday have unemployment rates now of 33 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:38,560 Speaker 2: over fifteen percent. It's shocking why, Because a constrained market 34 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:41,120 Speaker 2: doesn't provide work for people with limited and those skills. 35 00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:44,000 Speaker 2: Young people start out, of course, with the disadvantage of 36 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:47,120 Speaker 2: no experience. Add no skills to that near toast. This 37 00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:49,520 Speaker 2: is not new, but it is new to the current lot, 38 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,160 Speaker 2: who clearly never got the previous lot's memo that it's 39 00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 2: hard enough as it is to get into the job 40 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:57,560 Speaker 2: market with up without turning up ill prepared. But here's 41 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,360 Speaker 2: what I know about life and economies. It doesn't matter 42 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:03,920 Speaker 2: what the economy, the economy or the economic circumstances are. 43 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 2: Good people with good skills and good attitude and good 44 00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:13,160 Speaker 2: determination are always always in demand and will always do well. 45 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:16,640 Speaker 2: And good stuff well made with the story high end 46 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 2: quality will always always do well. Quality, whether in person 47 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 2: or product, is recession proof. 48 00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:29,079 Speaker 3: News of the world in ninety seconds, right. 49 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:30,680 Speaker 2: Off the back of a bad the polls, the Trump 50 00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:33,079 Speaker 2: team have Scots to face with. Well, it's a big deal. 51 00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 4: Without are being able to use tariffs really openly and 52 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 4: in every way, really would suffer tremendously from a national 53 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:44,639 Speaker 4: security step point, the national security of our country. 54 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:45,679 Speaker 5: Six seconds and biggest. 55 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:47,840 Speaker 4: I think it's one of the biggest decisions in the. 56 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:51,400 Speaker 2: History of the He's right, a pam of Flora's running offense. 57 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:53,960 Speaker 6: The President has the authority to do this under his 58 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 6: executive authority. We feel very confident and this is the 59 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 6: most important case in front of the Supreme Court. Not 60 00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:04,720 Speaker 6: only is this about national security but also our economics 61 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 6: security around the world. 62 00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:08,440 Speaker 2: But the justices aren't buying it. 63 00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 3: So of my oar, I just don't understand this argument. 64 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:13,920 Speaker 3: It's not an article. 65 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:18,079 Speaker 7: It's a congressional power, not a presidential power to tax. 66 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 3: And you want to see. 67 00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 8: Tarists are in out of taxes, but that's exactly what 68 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:22,519 Speaker 8: they are. 69 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:24,359 Speaker 2: Not even Cony Barrett, can. 70 00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:27,079 Speaker 7: You point to any other place in the Code or 71 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 7: any other time in history where that phrase together regulate 72 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 7: importation has been used to confer tariff imposing authority. 73 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 2: Well, they're in trouble in Britain. The incompetence of the 74 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 2: government was on full display. So prisoner gets laid out accidentally, 75 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 2: took six days to find the coppers. The Tories laid 76 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 2: the trap in the Commons. 77 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 3: Can he reassure the house? 78 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 9: But since Cabatu was released, no other asylum seeking offender 79 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 9: has been accidentally let out of prison. 80 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:57,960 Speaker 2: It's a very specific question then to answer, let me 81 00:03:58,280 --> 00:03:59,600 Speaker 2: walk right into it. 82 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 9: I know I'm the Justice Secretary, That's why I'm at 83 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:03,440 Speaker 9: the dispatch box. 84 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 3: Also as Deputy Prime Minister. 85 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 2: We know that. Of course, we know that there had 86 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 2: been spikes since twenty twenty. 87 00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 3: One under his watch. When did he come to this 88 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 3: house and. 89 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 2: Apologize on the TV? The Polley's lined up? 90 00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 6: It is just it is shocking and in you know, 91 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 6: we've got. 92 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 10: To get a grip of it. 93 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 11: This is very worrying because you know the British public 94 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 11: will be rightly concerned that these people are at. 95 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 12: Least David Lammy, the Justice Secretary, refused to answer the 96 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 12: questions when he must have known. 97 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 10: Of course he knew more. 98 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:35,479 Speaker 2: From Rod later. Of course finally call prize for well, 99 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:37,520 Speaker 2: maybe a Christmas gift in front. So it's a two 100 00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:39,800 Speaker 2: hundred and fifty dollars a pop lottery. You want a 101 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:41,839 Speaker 2: chance to buy a burial plot in some of the 102 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:44,240 Speaker 2: famous symmetries. One of the more famous ones could see 103 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 2: you lying next to Jim Morrison, Oscar Wild or Edith 104 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 2: p f If you win, you buy the plot for 105 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 2: eighty one hundred dollars. You then buy the least for 106 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 2: either two years, a couple of grand for teen years, 107 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 2: or thirty six grand and you can have it forever. 108 00:04:56,920 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 2: Here's the world of ninety that British thing. By the way. Also, 109 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:03,719 Speaker 2: on asylum, the migrant who got in the one in, 110 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:09,159 Speaker 2: one out, the migrant who was sent back then came back, 111 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 2: has now been sent back again. So the out and 112 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 2: out policies working really well, which would explain why the 113 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:19,040 Speaker 2: latest poll out this morning has labor now and third 114 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 2: behind the Conservatives and of course behind reform. 115 00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 1: Thirteen passes the Mike Hosking Breakfast Full Show podcast on 116 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,680 Speaker 1: aheart radio power by News Talks EP. 117 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 2: By the way, despite the shutdown in America which is 118 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 2: now the longest ever, of course, we did get a 119 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:40,880 Speaker 2: private job sector read it's an estimate a payroll process 120 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:42,840 Speaker 2: in company or the ADP came up with. They reckon. 121 00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 2: They've added forty two thousand private sector jobs in the 122 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:50,720 Speaker 2: last month, which is good. Fifteen past six and partners 123 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:54,359 Speaker 2: Andrew callahad good morning, very good morning. Makes as job numbers, 124 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 2: what'd you see? Do we see anything good? 125 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 5: There? 126 00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:00,480 Speaker 8: There is if you look really, really hard. So I 127 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 8: suppose running through all the headline numbers are the unemployment 128 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:06,839 Speaker 8: print at five point three very much in line with expectations, 129 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 8: so called pretty well by the economists. So nothing to 130 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:12,920 Speaker 8: see in terms of surprises in the outcome. But I think, 131 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:15,400 Speaker 8: as has been mentioned, there are one hundred and sixty 132 00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:18,919 Speaker 8: thousand people unemployed, because I think it's always useful to 133 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:21,279 Speaker 8: think of the absolute numbers, and that's the highest number 134 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 8: of unemployed people we've seen since nineteen ninety four. You 135 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:27,920 Speaker 8: were just talking about youth unemployment. I really do think 136 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,719 Speaker 8: this number needs to be talked about. Yeah, fifteen point 137 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,880 Speaker 8: two percent for that fifteen to twenty four in our bracket, 138 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 8: but Mike, that was at thirteen point one a year ago, 139 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:40,240 Speaker 8: so that's quite a substantial move. And actually the fifteen 140 00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 8: to nineteen bracket is even higher than that fifteen percent. 141 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:45,760 Speaker 8: So those people were all drafted into the workforce when 142 00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:48,920 Speaker 8: labors and short supply. Now they've been moved basically out 143 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:51,919 Speaker 8: of work, and so that's probably you're not going to 144 00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:54,840 Speaker 8: see that recover though, until you see the actual labor 145 00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:55,600 Speaker 8: market recover. 146 00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,159 Speaker 5: Now. One of the key points is the participation rate. 147 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:02,479 Speaker 8: It fell from seventy point five to seventy point three, 148 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:05,320 Speaker 8: so it means people have removed themselves from the workforce. 149 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:07,960 Speaker 5: That's not good. It's the discouraged worker effect. 150 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 8: The participation rate is its lowest since twenty twenty. And 151 00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 8: of course, if those people hadn't removed themselves from the workforce, 152 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 8: that unemployment rate would be even higher. Employment as opposed 153 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 8: to unemployment fol zero point six percent, and the underutilization 154 00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 8: rate is people who would like to be working more 155 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 8: at twelve point nine percent means there are four hundred 156 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 8: and six thousand people that want more work now. Not unsurprisingly, 157 00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 8: this all means that wages aren't moving up as fast 158 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:34,280 Speaker 8: as they were. 159 00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 5: The labor costs index rose two point one percent. 160 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 8: That's the private sector, so that's a four year low, 161 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 8: and I suspected people do get wage rises this year, 162 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 8: it's going to be very low, single digit numbers. Detail 163 00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 8: employment falling in the construction, public administration, healthcare, and professional 164 00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 8: services sectors. You'd seen some games in manufacturing. That's good 165 00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 8: to see. And of course we've got this regional discrepancy 166 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 8: which has been talked to again not particularly unsurprising at 167 00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:06,760 Speaker 8: the South Island sitting at four percent, Auckland sitting at 168 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 8: six point one, so a lot higher in the urban centers. 169 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 8: If you're looking for the flickers of growth, Mike, there 170 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 8: are some there. And so you've got the housing, the 171 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:20,520 Speaker 8: household Labor for survey and the quarterly Employment survey. The 172 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 8: HLFS had a zero put nine percent lift in hours work. 173 00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 8: That's really good to see. You also saw that corroborated 174 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 8: in the quarterly employment survey and lifting jobs and ours 175 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:33,280 Speaker 8: work there as well, So I think that's that is 176 00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:36,920 Speaker 8: a precursor for stability, So it could indicate that this 177 00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 8: is the peak. 178 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:39,679 Speaker 5: Big picture comments. 179 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 8: It's a massive data dump, but if you look at 180 00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:45,160 Speaker 8: the quarterly employment growth, takeout all the volatility, it's dead flat. 181 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:47,400 Speaker 8: The employment market is not really going and where and 182 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:50,559 Speaker 8: pressure coming off wages. That doesn't seem to be anything 183 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 8: in these numbers standing in the way of a further 184 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 8: twenty five basis pointcut in the OCR November. 185 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:58,079 Speaker 5: And I guess that's how you'd summarize. 186 00:08:57,600 --> 00:08:58,280 Speaker 2: It and bring it on. 187 00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:01,679 Speaker 8: What about China, Mike, which is seeming quite a bit 188 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:04,679 Speaker 8: of really mixed commentary about China. You read one report, 189 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:06,679 Speaker 8: it says the economy is recovering. You read another one 190 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 8: you say it isn't recovering. It's still our key export partner. 191 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,679 Speaker 8: So that you do get these mixed signals. And we've 192 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 8: had evidence of this in the last couple of days. 193 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 8: Remember we sometimes talk about the quajun PMI, the private 194 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 8: sector purchasing managed indext what. It's got a new name. 195 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 8: It's now called, which is a slightly more sort of descriptive. 196 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:26,680 Speaker 8: It's called the rating Dog PMI, and it's now traveling 197 00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:30,359 Speaker 8: in a different direction from manufacturing. So here's the conundrum. 198 00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:34,199 Speaker 8: Manufacturing PMI released a couple of days ago. It was weak, 199 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 8: but that's not what's evident in the services sector. The 200 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:41,320 Speaker 8: services sector fifty two points six, it's an expansion, it's 201 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:45,320 Speaker 8: been an expansion since twenty twenty three. But manufacturing is 202 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 8: in the doldrums. It's sitting under fifty. It's the lowest 203 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 8: it's been since April this year. You bring them together 204 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:53,439 Speaker 8: and you've got the concont index which is at bang 205 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 8: on fifty, neither contractiony or expansiony. The vibe I think 206 00:09:57,440 --> 00:09:59,679 Speaker 8: is is that if you get further deterioration and these 207 00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 8: sort of per my numbers, you're going to see more 208 00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:04,560 Speaker 8: government stimulus. So we've got to keep close signing that 209 00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:07,200 Speaker 8: and the trade numbers going forward. And you just quickly 210 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:10,319 Speaker 8: mentioned that ADP employment numb, which is quite good. Another 211 00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:13,959 Speaker 8: data point overnight, the ism and the CISS index fifty 212 00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:16,480 Speaker 8: two point four. That was quite a quite positive good. 213 00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:20,040 Speaker 8: But inside the data, price is paid has gone up. 214 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:22,480 Speaker 8: That throws the spotlight inflation. We've seen a big shift 215 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 8: up in the tenier bondrade overnight. 216 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,080 Speaker 2: We have significant Hey this time next week, Are you 217 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:27,960 Speaker 2: prepared for the breakfast thing that we're doing? 218 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 8: Absolutely good, it's gonna You've got to be there. 219 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:32,480 Speaker 5: I got to be. 220 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:34,720 Speaker 2: There because I said to someone yesterday it's full?

They're going 269 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:46,800 Speaker 2: to lay off thousands of employees in the current quarter. 270 00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:48,640 Speaker 2: Are one percent? To give you a clue, they employ 271 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:50,440 Speaker 2: a lot of people. Turn arou seventy thousand people, so 272 00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:52,480 Speaker 2: one percent is about three thousand. But they're going to 273 00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 2: be laying off thousands of people in the current quarter. 274 00:12:55,120 --> 00:13:00,920 Speaker 2: Something to look forward to sex twenty five. That would 275 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:04,040 Speaker 2: be you, Glenn, anyway, are we going to do it? 276 00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 2: Or no, can't do it. We'll come back to The 277 00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:11,080 Speaker 2: Canadian budget came out yesterday. So Carney, the reason I'm 278 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:13,079 Speaker 2: particularly the interest in this is Kearney was once the 279 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:15,320 Speaker 2: Central Bank, Reserve Bank government of course, so you would 280 00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 2: argue he kind of knows what he's doing and what 281 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:19,839 Speaker 2: he came out yesterday and see you're going to swing 282 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:22,680 Speaker 2: for the fences, and so there was a tremendous amount 283 00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:26,200 Speaker 2: of spending going on the areas in which he spent 284 00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:28,679 Speaker 2: were interesting, not least which was defense, because they promised 285 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 2: they think they were sitting about two percent of GDP 286 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 2: on defense, and they promise part of the NATO thing 287 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 2: that they're going to be going up to five percent, 288 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 2: which is many billions of dollars speaking. But i'll come 289 00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:39,079 Speaker 2: back to that. Speaking of central banks, we also got 290 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:41,760 Speaker 2: and I'll talk to Nicola Willis about this after seven 291 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 2: o'clock this morning. She's with us on the unemployment. It's 292 00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:47,719 Speaker 2: too late now, mate. We haven't got them the time. 293 00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:50,600 Speaker 2: We haven't got the time. We'll come back to Nicola Willis. 294 00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 2: After seven o'clock the Reserve Bank came out with their 295 00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:56,400 Speaker 2: forecast for the economy as far as the agriculture sector 296 00:13:56,480 --> 00:14:01,120 Speaker 2: is concerned. The non performing loans in the in the 297 00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:03,200 Speaker 2: sector are you know, people who own money more than 298 00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 2: ninety days, et cetera. They're at multi year low, sixteen 299 00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:07,520 Speaker 2: year low. So in other words, you're doing well at 300 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:11,080 Speaker 2: the moment. All those beef and milk prices, low interest 301 00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:13,720 Speaker 2: rates have worked in very nicely. Indeed, as far as 302 00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:15,520 Speaker 2: the Reserve Bank concerned, this what I want to know, 303 00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:17,679 Speaker 2: does she get anything out of this, because a lot 304 00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:19,560 Speaker 2: of people take this seriously. This is one of Christian 305 00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:23,240 Speaker 2: Hawksby's last things he's going to do. The risks were 306 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 2: higher than in recent years, underperformance in parts of the 307 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 2: New Zealand economy, et cetera, et cetera. So he goes 308 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:31,560 Speaker 2: through these different categories economic conditions, trade tensions, housing market, 309 00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:34,920 Speaker 2: business tress, reinsurance, cybersecurity, and what he sees throughout all 310 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 2: of them is, oh yeah, housing market, oh yeah, could 311 00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:42,480 Speaker 2: be better, could be worse, business stress, could be better, 312 00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:45,800 Speaker 2: could be worse, cybersecurity and things. But Dodgy, there's nothing 313 00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:48,800 Speaker 2: specific to get your head around as far as I 314 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 2: can work out, and I just want to know what 315 00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:52,920 Speaker 2: the point of all of that is. Anyway, we'll ask 316 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:55,520 Speaker 2: her after seven o'clock. Now the good news on fast track. 317 00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:59,560 Speaker 2: More applications are being ticked off, this time mining.

Are you happy with it in terms of 335 00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 2: as a country, are we getting our act together in 336 00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 2: getting on with the business? 337 00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:54,640 Speaker 5: Oh? 338 00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:58,080 Speaker 13: Look, I think we're now now and our particular second 339 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:01,320 Speaker 13: start now reached the part where we've got much more certainty. 340 00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:04,760 Speaker 13: Certainly what we had to do in order to formulate 341 00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 13: our application is still diligent, it's still thorough and it 342 00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 13: still pretty much sits under the existing the previous legislations 343 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:16,760 Speaker 13: which still exist, the Resource Management Act and other related act. 344 00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 13: So we're getting there, but I certainly think we can 345 00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:21,080 Speaker 13: do better. 346 00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:23,600 Speaker 2: Good and will we once the laws are passed? 347 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:26,120 Speaker 14: Look, I think so. 348 00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:29,480 Speaker 13: I think Simon Court is leading that charge and the 349 00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 13: reforms to the Resource Management Act, and I understand there's 350 00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:35,520 Speaker 13: going to be some indication of what it might look 351 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:38,040 Speaker 13: like the side of Christmas and with a view to 352 00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:39,400 Speaker 13: get that into law next year. 353 00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:42,160 Speaker 2: The pushback you deal with, is mining still a thing 354 00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:44,280 Speaker 2: in this country as far as you're concerned? For some. 355 00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:51,320 Speaker 13: Oh, Look, there's plenty of pushback, but I'm comfortable that 356 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:55,960 Speaker 13: there's much more in terms of support. I've been mining 357 00:16:56,120 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 13: here continuously for twenty years. Obviously, cat And grew up here, 358 00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:05,280 Speaker 13: so mining is definitely part of our lives. We just 359 00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:09,040 Speaker 13: need to raise a profile even more. Just educate people 360 00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:13,000 Speaker 13: about what we do, what we produce, and how we 361 00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:15,360 Speaker 13: look after our fantastic country we've got here. 362 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:17,560 Speaker 2: And do people believe that? Or I mean, what I'm 363 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:19,200 Speaker 2: trying to find out are the people who push back 364 00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 2: these days? Are they the people are always going to 365 00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:24,120 Speaker 2: push back? Or is there a story to be told 366 00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:25,800 Speaker 2: that you haven't told quite as well as you could have. 367 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:30,680 Speaker 13: I think in most cases it's the sort of people 368 00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 13: who will always push back, you know, and to be 369 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:36,840 Speaker 13: fair and a lot of those cases, they are our 370 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:40,200 Speaker 13: future neighbors, right, so they've got a right to understand 371 00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:46,480 Speaker 13: and get into the detail. We have obviously tried to 372 00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:48,680 Speaker 13: do that and we will continue to do that and. 373 00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:50,400 Speaker 15: Discuss with him the deal. 374 00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:52,159 Speaker 2: You have struck ten percent of the profits or two 375 00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:54,800 Speaker 2: percent of the gold sales? Is that the way of 376 00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:57,080 Speaker 2: the future? Is this how this thing should work? 377 00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:01,520 Speaker 13: I love this particular royalty regime was brought in by 378 00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:05,359 Speaker 13: the government in twenty thirteen. I guess we're just one 379 00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:08,520 Speaker 13: of those lucky ones that have actually found something since 380 00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:14,720 Speaker 13: then that triggers that level of royalty regiing. So it 381 00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:18,879 Speaker 13: is law. Any other new discovery on a permit issue 382 00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:21,440 Speaker 13: since then will pay a similar basis. 383 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:23,080 Speaker 2: Of PRIORTI is it worth hunting for gold if you 384 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:24,920 Speaker 2: haven't been given what's happened to the price of gold 385 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:26,720 Speaker 2: of late or not? Or is it a bigger picture 386 00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:27,359 Speaker 2: thing than that. 387 00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:31,440 Speaker 13: It's going to worth hunting for gold? The certainly our 388 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 13: discovery here in Central Otago has sparked a interest from 389 00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:40,439 Speaker 13: a lot of companies moving into the area, and that 390 00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:43,080 Speaker 13: was before this year, well before this year and end 391 00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:46,560 Speaker 13: the gold price, so there's definitely price and the fact 392 00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:47,800 Speaker 13: that we've made this discovery. 393 00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:49,240 Speaker 2: What do you make of the market at the moment? 394 00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:51,639 Speaker 2: I mean, is this here for good or is this 395 00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:52,760 Speaker 2: a moment. 396 00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:58,160 Speaker 13: I guess reading some of the literature and research notes 397 00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:02,400 Speaker 13: at around there's been definitely fundamental shift in where gold 398 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:08,159 Speaker 13: sits in financial markets. There is definitely a flight to 399 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:11,240 Speaker 13: safe havens such as gold, and I think we're seeing 400 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:14,000 Speaker 13: that based on the research that's going to be here 401 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:14,840 Speaker 13: for a while longer. 402 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:16,840 Speaker 2: Good stuff, Domien, Nice to talk to your Damian Spring, 403 00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:19,199 Speaker 2: who's the chief executive.

Interesting deficit's going to roll out 429 00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:31,960 Speaker 2: at about ninety billion, which is a lot, and he 430 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,359 Speaker 2: spent a lot. He spent a shed load three hundred 431 00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:38,040 Speaker 2: and fifty billion. A strategic injection of funds will attract 432 00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:41,920 Speaker 2: he claims a trillion in investment to the country. They're 433 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:44,960 Speaker 2: spending on highways and ports, electrical grids and digital corridors 434 00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:46,800 Speaker 2: and defense and housing and all that sort of stuff. 435 00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:49,639 Speaker 2: He is cutting in certain areas. The public service is 436 00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:52,000 Speaker 2: going to get gutted. Reduction of the public service of 437 00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:54,960 Speaker 2: forty thousand jobs by the end of twenty twenty nine. 438 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:57,520 Speaker 2: It's all brought about by the trade problem. That seventy 439 00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:00,320 Speaker 2: percent of what they do goes south to America and 440 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:02,399 Speaker 2: they've got tarre of problems. So a whole bunch of 441 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:05,879 Speaker 2: measures to lower the marginal effective tax rate from thirteen 442 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:10,000 Speaker 2: point to thirteen point two from fifteen point six. He's 443 00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:12,800 Speaker 2: got a one point three billion to attract international researchers 444 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:15,920 Speaker 2: to Canadian universities. That's sticking it right up the Americans. 445 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:18,959 Speaker 2: So we'll see how that goes. I noticed in the 446 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:23,359 Speaker 2: power grid department he's into nuclear reactors. Wake up New Zealand. 447 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:26,239 Speaker 2: He's boosting defenses. I mentioned to that five percent by 448 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:29,880 Speaker 2: twenty thirty five, so that's tens of billions of dollars 449 00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:33,480 Speaker 2: worth of investment. Are significantly cuts targets for new temporary 450 00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:35,600 Speaker 2: residents from six hundred and seventy three thousand to three 451 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:39,359 Speaker 2: hundred and eighty five thousand. So there's that immigration play 452 00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:41,960 Speaker 2: that was the Trudeau era that he's trying to move 453 00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:45,119 Speaker 2: himself away from, and he's launching a loan facility. This 454 00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:48,200 Speaker 2: is sort of odd a ten billion intended to support 455 00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:51,920 Speaker 2: otherwise successful Canadian businesses. So in other words, you're doing 456 00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:55,399 Speaker 2: okay until Donald came along, and now you're not. So 457 00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 2: they've got a sort of a program to try and 458 00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:58,760 Speaker 2: help you through that. So there was a lot going 459 00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:00,520 Speaker 2: on in Canada yesterday for Tea too. 460 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:04,440 Speaker 1: So my costing breakfast with Bailey's real Estate news talks, 461 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:04,760 Speaker 1: there'd be. 462 00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:07,680 Speaker 2: Weston's got a plan of scout has goes badly as 463 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:09,960 Speaker 2: regards the tariffs and the Supreme Court.

But I just wonder how much of 470 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:27,280 Speaker 2: you know, when you're dealing and restoring these old structures 471 00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:29,199 Speaker 2: which are hundreds of not thousands of years old, how 472 00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:31,360 Speaker 2: much risk is going on there on any given day. 473 00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 16: Yeah, I mean it really makes you think, especially at 474 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:39,480 Speaker 16: the moment because Rome has many reconstruction projects, recovery of 475 00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:42,479 Speaker 16: some of the old ruins going on financed by some 476 00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:45,080 Speaker 16: of those EU funds recovery funds. 477 00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:47,640 Speaker 10: But this was a day of mourning for Rome. 478 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:48,000 Speaker 12: Today. 479 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:51,720 Speaker 16: Sixty six year old construction worker was killed while helping 480 00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:55,439 Speaker 16: to restore a medieval tower just near the coliseum, so 481 00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:59,120 Speaker 16: quite close to where many many tourists would have been passing, 482 00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:02,560 Speaker 16: and he was trapped and the rubble for eleven hours, 483 00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:04,560 Speaker 16: rescued and then died in hospital. 484 00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:07,080 Speaker 2: Is this a unionized thing? Is that the sort of 485 00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:09,800 Speaker 2: debate you have? And we need safe more safety rules 486 00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:11,040 Speaker 2: and laws and rules all there. 487 00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:11,840 Speaker 7: Yeah. 488 00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:14,360 Speaker 16: Look, I think it's a problem because so many of 489 00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:17,199 Speaker 16: these construction sites now are not unionized. 490 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:19,000 Speaker 10: The workers don't have protection. 491 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:22,400 Speaker 16: This chap was from Romania, so many of the workers 492 00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:25,800 Speaker 16: are from other parts of Europe. And we've had seven 493 00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:29,359 Speaker 16: hundred work work related death since the beginning of this year. 494 00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:32,480 Speaker 2: Now, the budget, there was some criticism around that it 495 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 2: didn't boost it. I mean, what was it supposed to 496 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:35,560 Speaker 2: boost grow? 497 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:38,280 Speaker 16: Well, we've still got some toing and throwing going, so 498 00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:41,919 Speaker 16: the government hasn't signed off completely yet. But the largest 499 00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:46,760 Speaker 16: business organization, Confindustria has criticized the twenty twenty six budget 500 00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:50,480 Speaker 16: saying it won't boost growth. And they say that, of course, 501 00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:53,399 Speaker 16: employers are under more pressure because of the tariffs and 502 00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:55,000 Speaker 16: geo political. 503 00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:55,960 Speaker 10: Tensions going on around the world. 504 00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:59,480 Speaker 16: Having said that, I did see something positive today, saying 505 00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:04,280 Speaker 16: that the main in Italy sectors agriculture, fashion, those areas 506 00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 16: of manufacturing look quite strong going into twenty twenty six. 507 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:12,240 Speaker 2: That's good. Hey, gambling, I'm fascinated in the American market, particularly. 508 00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:15,439 Speaker 2: I don't gamble. I can't understand. But do you a 509 00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:17,760 Speaker 2: You gamble a lot, but do you gamble on sport? 510 00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:19,480 Speaker 2: Is sports gambling a big thing in Italy? 511 00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:20,560 Speaker 12: Yeah? 512 00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:21,199 Speaker 10: I think it is. 513 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:23,679 Speaker 16: I was quite shocked, Mike to see some of the 514 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:27,000 Speaker 16: figures today. The growth in the gambling industry in Italy 515 00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:32,560 Speaker 16: has outpaced Britain, Germany and France, and gaming revenues are 516 00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 16: above twenty billion euros in twenty twenty four. And it's 517 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:40,960 Speaker 16: an interesting issue for Maloney, the Prime Minister, because she 518 00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 16: wants to defend the free market and family venues. But 519 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:47,920 Speaker 16: the Catholic Church is looking for tighter regulations. 520 00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:50,280 Speaker 2: Okay, then we got the firefighters, so they're aging. No 521 00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:51,480 Speaker 2: one wants to be Why don't you want to be 522 00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:54,000 Speaker 2: a firefighter? You can strip off and make a calendar, 523 00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:57,400 Speaker 2: and I mean it's you know, I. 524 00:24:57,640 --> 00:25:01,920 Speaker 16: Think that there's the vinn stranded apparently because so many 525 00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:04,879 Speaker 16: older people in Italy, as we know it's an aging population, 526 00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:08,320 Speaker 16: are calling the firefighters in to open their doors after 527 00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:09,520 Speaker 16: they lock themselves out. 528 00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:13,040 Speaker 2: Oh, for goodness sake, For goodness sake, Joe, nice to 529 00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:15,280 Speaker 2: catch up with you. Appreciate it very much, Joe McKenna, 530 00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:17,080 Speaker 2: who is in Italy for us this morning. Seven away 531 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:21,840 Speaker 2: from SEVENSCO data this morning from Trade me Housing told 532 00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:24,200 Speaker 2: you it's coming to life. A number of properties listed 533 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:27,320 Speaker 2: for sale up through the roof four year high for 534 00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:30,240 Speaker 2: October twenty nine percent increase if you want a specific number, 535 00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:33,159 Speaker 2: coincides also with growing demand. So we're into the market 536 00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:35,520 Speaker 2: and we've got lots to choose from. So the price 537 00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:37,880 Speaker 2: thing might be interesting, but in terms of people selling 538 00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:41,119 Speaker 2: and people wanting to buy, those are all positive numbers. 539 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:45,320 Speaker 2: It's the summer, it's the vibe. We're feeling the confidence 540 00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:48,240 Speaker 2: their words, not mine. Buyers appear to be feeling the confidence. 541 00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:51,919 Speaker 2: So at last, the Reserve bank movement is real and 542 00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:53,720 Speaker 2: we've got another one to come later on this month. 543 00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:56,280 Speaker 2: Auckland up four percent year on year, thirty three percent 544 00:25:56,320 --> 00:26:00,720 Speaker 2: from September, Wellington up six percent. Cannibary, what can I 545 00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:02,920 Speaker 2: tell you five percent month on month, twenty percent year 546 00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:07,199 Speaker 2: on year, Northland and Marlborough forty nine and forty three percent. 547 00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:08,920 Speaker 2: I mean, I know it's a little bit individual and 548 00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:10,880 Speaker 2: it doesn't take much in the small market to move 549 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:14,440 Speaker 2: the numbers a lot, but that's a lot average asking price, 550 00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:16,399 Speaker 2: which you know that I'm always weak on this. I mean, 551 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:17,639 Speaker 2: what you ask for and what you get are too 552 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:20,399 Speaker 2: completely different things in normal circumstances. But nevertheless, the national 553 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:23,399 Speaker 2: asking price that's up six percent as well to eight 554 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:26,200 Speaker 2: hundred and eighty three thousand, So that to my eye 555 00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 2: is reasonably bullish, six away from seven. 556 00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 3: All the ins and the outs. 557 00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:36,560 Speaker 1: It's the spiz with business favor, take your business productivity 558 00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:37,480 Speaker 1: to the next level. 559 00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:40,000 Speaker 2: Speaking of bullet tech story, wonderful story here for you 560 00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:42,840 Speaker 2: this morning. We've got the Technology Investment Network otherwise known 561 00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:46,800 Speaker 2: as TIN TIN. It's our top two hundred tech films, 562 00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:51,359 Speaker 2: which would make it the ten two hundred, and if 563 00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:52,840 Speaker 2: you had two of them, you'd have the ten ten 564 00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:54,640 Speaker 2: two hundred. You've got to be of a certain age 565 00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:59,280 Speaker 2: to understand that joke. Revenue generated was twenty billion, which 566 00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:01,000 Speaker 2: is up nine point nine percent on last year. So 567 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:03,800 Speaker 2: we'll take that all day along. Expert's at fifteen point 568 00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:06,040 Speaker 2: three to one billion, which is an increase of twelve 569 00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:09,040 Speaker 2: point four percent. So we're loving that. That, by the way, 570 00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:11,359 Speaker 2: makes the tech sector. And I've said this about a 571 00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:15,560 Speaker 2: million times. No one gives the tech sector the appreciation 572 00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:18,399 Speaker 2: and the coverage it deserves because it is right up 573 00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:20,680 Speaker 2: there now with dairy and tourism. It's third behind dairy 574 00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:24,200 Speaker 2: and tourism, but at fifteen point three billion in exports, 575 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:26,560 Speaker 2: right on the heels of tourism because it's only sixteen 576 00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:29,040 Speaker 2: billion for tourism. You think about how often we talk 577 00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:31,679 Speaker 2: about tourism at sixteen billion worth of exports, Tech at 578 00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:34,760 Speaker 2: fifteen point three is right up its JACKSI sixty one 579 00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:39,680 Speaker 2: thousand employees in the sector overseas postings for New Zealand companies. 580 00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:42,160 Speaker 2: That's the really interesting that they're growing the fastest. Offshore 581 00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:45,760 Speaker 2: job creation is outpacing domestic growth three to one. Number 582 00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:50,040 Speaker 2: of onshore jobs. The ten two hundred staff actually fell 583 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:52,479 Speaker 2: interestingly enough, two hundred twenty nine thousand, still a lot 584 00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:55,200 Speaker 2: of people, but it fell twelve point four percent tech 585 00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:58,960 Speaker 2: globally at this point unaffected by the US tariffs, So 586 00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:03,440 Speaker 2: you Douglas Pharmacy to cause your MAXA JESUK unaffected and 587 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 2: AFT they're doing very well. Indeed, our first year that 588 00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:11,280 Speaker 2: the couple of two ten two hundreds, first year that 589 00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:14,720 Speaker 2: two ten, two hundreds. I'm now just being silly, aren't 590 00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:17,119 Speaker 2: I have made over a couple of billion in revenue 591 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:21,199 Speaker 2: that was zero And Fisher and Pikell Healthcare forty of 592 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:23,879 Speaker 2: the ten two hundreds had turnedover of over one hundred 593 00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:26,680 Speaker 2: million dollars last year. Back in twenty fifteen it was 594 00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:30,280 Speaker 2: only nineteen. So it's gone from nineteen to forty companies 595 00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:32,439 Speaker 2: with turnover of more than one hundred million dollars. I mean, 596 00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:35,440 Speaker 2: how many good numbers do you want? For goodness sake? 597 00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:37,280 Speaker 2: Now I had a little bit of exercise. We'll talk 598 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:39,440 Speaker 2: to Nicola Willis by the way, about the jobs in 599 00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:40,920 Speaker 2: a couple of moments, and I will ask her about 600 00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:43,240 Speaker 2: that Reserve Bank report yesterday, and we're I mean, what's 601 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:46,080 Speaker 2: the use of these reports that just say vague stuff? 602 00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:49,280 Speaker 2: What do you get from that? As a finance minister? Anyway? 603 00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:51,400 Speaker 2: More importantly than that, and by the way, I will 604 00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:53,440 Speaker 2: be asking you about the bank. So Westpact this week 605 00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:56,640 Speaker 2: gave their profit announcement, which was a good profit? Can it? Now? 606 00:28:56,680 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 2: Just before I forget the news this morning is running 607 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:04,280 Speaker 2: yet another one of these myopic stories that media run 608 00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 2: based on the salary earned by the CEO of Westpac 609 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:11,320 Speaker 2: in New Zealand. Now she earns a tremendous amount of money. 610 00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 2: Why does she earn a tremendous amount of money Because 611 00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:16,600 Speaker 2: she's the CEO of a bank, so you're dealing with 612 00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:20,480 Speaker 2: multiples of billions. And then they go and it's fifty 613 00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:22,840 Speaker 2: five times the average wage and they tell you that, 614 00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:26,880 Speaker 2: so you feel bad about yourself. The relationship between a 615 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:33,360 Speaker 2: CEO salary and the average person salary is pointless, because 616 00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:36,560 Speaker 2: that's why it's called the average salary and a ceo salary, 617 00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:38,720 Speaker 2: And just reminding people that they don't own a lot 618 00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,280 Speaker 2: of money is of no value whatsoever. There is a 619 00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:44,360 Speaker 2: reason in this life why some people earn more than others, 620 00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:47,280 Speaker 2: and there's no point in pointing it out that you know, 621 00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:49,520 Speaker 2: you should feel bad about yourself. Anyway, Where was I? 622 00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:51,920 Speaker 2: Nikola Willis on the jobs and having em got to 623 00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:54,160 Speaker 2: York from the University that I'm ropable about that. So 624 00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:56,160 Speaker 2: we've got David Seymour on that as well. 625 00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:59,960 Speaker 1: For you the newsmakers and the personalities, the big names 626 00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:03,880 Speaker 1: talk to Mike the mic Hosking Breakfast with Bailey's real 627 00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:07,760 Speaker 1: Estate doing real estate differently since nineteen seventy three, news 628 00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:08,640 Speaker 1: togs had been only. 629 00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:10,560 Speaker 2: Seven past seven. So the job numbers came in as 630 00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:13,080 Speaker 2: expected five point three percent for the September quarter. And 631 00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:15,240 Speaker 2: depending on who's writing the headline, of course, it's either 632 00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:17,520 Speaker 2: the highest in nine years or the bottom of the 633 00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:19,840 Speaker 2: cycle and better times are ahead. The Finance Minister Nikola 634 00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:20,440 Speaker 2: Willis with us. 635 00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:23,880 Speaker 12: Good morning, Good morning Mane'll let me give you the 636 00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:26,680 Speaker 12: bright side up on this well rut up eyes store. 637 00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:30,800 Speaker 2: It's the rearview mirror, isn't it. Really? The job adds 638 00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:33,600 Speaker 2: are up, so it is at the bottom. Are better 639 00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:34,320 Speaker 2: times coming? 640 00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:35,080 Speaker 17: Well? 641 00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:37,760 Speaker 12: There were two indicators in there that were positive, so 642 00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:40,520 Speaker 12: there was really strong growth in the hours work that 643 00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:43,440 Speaker 12: was up zero point nine percent for the period. So 644 00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:46,920 Speaker 12: that's positive because of course when people are working more hours, 645 00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:50,480 Speaker 12: that suggests that there's more activity going on in the 646 00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:53,920 Speaker 12: economy and they're able to get more income into their family. Also, 647 00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:57,360 Speaker 12: there's been a shift away from part time to full 648 00:30:57,400 --> 00:31:00,480 Speaker 12: time employment because you had the full time employer rate 649 00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:03,520 Speaker 12: up in the part time rate down a bit. So 650 00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:07,760 Speaker 12: those are two positive indicators. Of course, with unemployment figures, 651 00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:10,360 Speaker 12: they can bounce around a little bit. So I'm not 652 00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:13,440 Speaker 12: on the camp where I'm confidently saying that we've absolutely 653 00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 12: definitely got the highest read at this point. There are 654 00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:21,280 Speaker 12: some economists who say it will go back down next quarter. 655 00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:23,240 Speaker 12: There are others who are being a bit more cautious, 656 00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:25,240 Speaker 12: So we'll see how it plays. What we are seeing 657 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:28,920 Speaker 12: across the economy a lot of signs that the bottom 658 00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:31,320 Speaker 12: has been reached and that we are now very much 659 00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:34,800 Speaker 12: in recovery, growing this quarter, expect to accelerate into more 660 00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:35,720 Speaker 12: growth next quarter. 661 00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:37,520 Speaker 3: All of that is consistent. 662 00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:40,120 Speaker 2: Okay, does the underutilization rate worry? 663 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:45,000 Speaker 12: Well, it's always a sign that you don't have enough 664 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:47,400 Speaker 12: work in the economy to satisfy the people who are 665 00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:50,400 Speaker 12: wanting work. And so we've always said this is a 666 00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:53,520 Speaker 12: very simple formula, which is you first got to keep 667 00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:56,160 Speaker 12: your inflation and your interest rates under control, which we 668 00:31:56,280 --> 00:32:00,000 Speaker 12: have lower taxes helps, and then once you've got that play, 669 00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:03,800 Speaker 12: firms will have the confidence to start investing and hiring again, 670 00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:06,640 Speaker 12: but we're ambitious to drive it along. It's not just 671 00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:09,680 Speaker 12: enough to do the foundation. So that's why we've been 672 00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:12,560 Speaker 12: keen to fast track these private sector developments which have 673 00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:16,240 Speaker 12: literally thousands of jobs associated with them, and we've had 674 00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:19,400 Speaker 12: four of those approved already and many of them will 675 00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:22,240 Speaker 12: be kicking off well before Christmas. That's why we're driving 676 00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:26,000 Speaker 12: along these public infrastructure projects, with seven billion dollars worth 677 00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:30,240 Speaker 12: of them starting before Christmas. It's also why we're keen 678 00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:33,000 Speaker 12: out there opening new markets through our exporters. You saw 679 00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:35,960 Speaker 12: the Prime Minister yesterday with the Indian Trade Minister. That's 680 00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:39,520 Speaker 12: why we're welcoming an investment from around the world, reducing 681 00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:42,760 Speaker 12: red tape for businesses. All of those things about are 682 00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:46,440 Speaker 12: about giving employers the confidence to take on new workers, 683 00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:48,560 Speaker 12: because at the end of the day, you don't just 684 00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:51,600 Speaker 12: deal with the government hiring spree. You actually need private, 685 00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:55,479 Speaker 12: independent businesses saying I like what's ahead, I'm confident I'm hiring. 686 00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:58,160 Speaker 2: The related matter is the Reserve Bank report yesterday the 687 00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:00,280 Speaker 2: General I mean, do you get anything? What do they 688 00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:02,760 Speaker 2: do these reports for? I mean I could have written 689 00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:05,400 Speaker 2: it for you and probably a lot cheaper, it says nothing. 690 00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:07,000 Speaker 2: Do you Is there any value in this? 691 00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:11,760 Speaker 12: Yes, there is, because it's the classic case of for 692 00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:16,320 Speaker 12: three or four land financial stability reports, there could be 693 00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:19,760 Speaker 12: one that says, actually, we're seeing some things that are 694 00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:24,800 Speaker 12: making us nervous. Whether that's that they're concerned about what's 695 00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:27,560 Speaker 12: going on in the housing market with a particular type 696 00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:30,200 Speaker 12: of lending, with a sector that's very stressed that could 697 00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:33,840 Speaker 12: pose challenges to financial stability. And when they do that 698 00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:36,880 Speaker 12: analysis and they find that out, then they've got options 699 00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:40,000 Speaker 12: to address it. So yep. It's great when it's positive 700 00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 12: and it's generally as you'd expect, but it can be 701 00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:45,640 Speaker 12: something that can give us warnings of problems that could 702 00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:48,800 Speaker 12: occur in the future. Financial stability you take it completely 703 00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:51,640 Speaker 12: for granted until something goes wrong and then you've got 704 00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:53,800 Speaker 12: a GFC and you're wishing you about it earlier. 705 00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:56,840 Speaker 2: Okay, I appreciate your time. Nicolaulis the Finance Minister with 706 00:33:56,920 --> 00:34:01,000 Speaker 2: us this morning. It's eleven minutes past seven Auckland University 707 00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:02,400 Speaker 2: this week, because it occurred to me that no one 708 00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:04,480 Speaker 2: seems to be holding them to account for this cluster. 709 00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:07,280 Speaker 2: There's their y pathatow Marta rah, course right. So they 710 00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:09,360 Speaker 2: made it compulsory, you know the story. They made it 711 00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:12,520 Speaker 2: compulsory and ideologically driven first, as it turns out, a 712 00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:15,359 Speaker 2: complete waste of time. Given the pushback was so great, 713 00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:18,040 Speaker 2: they've now made it voluntary. Now. The problem here was 714 00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:20,200 Speaker 2: for your domestic student they charged one thousand bucks for with 715 00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:23,520 Speaker 2: this nonsense. For the foreign student they charged five thousand, 716 00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:26,080 Speaker 2: seven hundred dollars. And it suddenly occurred to me, I thought, 717 00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:27,319 Speaker 2: I wonder if you get your money back on a 718 00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:29,200 Speaker 2: waste of time like that. Anyway, we rang them. They 719 00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:31,720 Speaker 2: said there's no refund going on. So anyway, David Seymour 720 00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:34,800 Speaker 2: is AC Party leader, Deputy Prime Minister and Associate Education 721 00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:38,120 Speaker 2: ministries with us good morning, good morning mate. Can they 722 00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:40,560 Speaker 2: hide behind independence? So in other words, no one can 723 00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 2: do anything about this. They can cock it up to 724 00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:44,560 Speaker 2: the level they have and that's just life. 725 00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:46,560 Speaker 11: Yeah. 726 00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:50,280 Speaker 9: Unfortunately in this case it is I think ultimately having 727 00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:54,560 Speaker 9: universities that are independents, have their own counsel and chart 728 00:34:54,640 --> 00:34:56,960 Speaker 9: their own path as better in the long run, I 729 00:34:57,000 --> 00:35:01,799 Speaker 9: wouldn't want to be more dictatorial country where one organization, 730 00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:04,360 Speaker 9: the government or even one person just is this is 731 00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:07,480 Speaker 9: the way it's going to be. But clearly in this case, 732 00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:11,040 Speaker 9: just like a lot of other institutions that have been 733 00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:14,960 Speaker 9: completely captured and hijacked, and instead of empowering New Zealand 734 00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:17,879 Speaker 9: is to live their best life, to be capable so 735 00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:20,960 Speaker 9: that they can go out and businesses and hire people 736 00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:23,919 Speaker 9: and be hired just as Nikola was saying a moment ago, 737 00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:27,120 Speaker 9: they've gone down a rabbit hole of trying to force 738 00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:30,640 Speaker 9: a worldview on other people, in this case using their 739 00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:33,000 Speaker 9: own money. And I might add the only reason it's 740 00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:37,400 Speaker 9: cheaper for domestic students is that the taxpayers subsidized domestic students. 741 00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:40,319 Speaker 2: And that's the problem. Though, So you paid for it, 742 00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:42,319 Speaker 2: we paid for it. We've all paid for it. What 743 00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:45,040 Speaker 2: about the blowback for the government of the reputational damage 744 00:35:45,040 --> 00:35:46,840 Speaker 2: you're trying to get people coming into the country, some 745 00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:48,280 Speaker 2: of them are forked out five and a half thousand 746 00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:49,040 Speaker 2: dollars for nothing. 747 00:35:50,880 --> 00:35:54,279 Speaker 9: Well, that's that's the sadness of this whole thing. And 748 00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:58,239 Speaker 9: you know, Paramji Parma, one of O's MPs, who has 749 00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:00,680 Speaker 9: I think quite bravely led the charge, has taken a 750 00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:03,600 Speaker 9: huge amount of abuse, which in itself is part of 751 00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:06,040 Speaker 9: the problem. I think the reason this stuff happens, is 752 00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:09,839 Speaker 9: that it seems most people are fearful to speak up, 753 00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:13,680 Speaker 9: but she has, and she said they should refund it, 754 00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:16,520 Speaker 9: and they could actually just say, look, well, we're not 755 00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:18,680 Speaker 9: going to give you cash back, but we will give 756 00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:22,280 Speaker 9: you credit for another course that you actually choose because 757 00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:25,960 Speaker 9: you judge it to be useful to your future, not 758 00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:29,520 Speaker 9: because we've decided to hijack your future for our political purpose. 759 00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:32,320 Speaker 2: Is there an upside in the sense that a lesson 760 00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:34,920 Speaker 2: might have been learned by other universities they've looked at 761 00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:37,040 Speaker 2: this blow up in their face and gone, we'll never 762 00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:39,080 Speaker 2: go there again. Therefore we've learned something. 763 00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:43,120 Speaker 9: Yeah, I feel like there is a change going on. 764 00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:45,760 Speaker 9: If you've cast your mind back three or four years, 765 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:50,640 Speaker 9: a course like this being introduced, being made compulsory would 766 00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:54,200 Speaker 9: have had full acquiescence, if not vocal support from the 767 00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:57,919 Speaker 9: governments of the day. Nobody would have been courageous enough 768 00:36:57,960 --> 00:37:00,839 Speaker 9: to stand up to it. The media have pounced on 769 00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:04,320 Speaker 9: anybody that did for the most part, and it just 770 00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:07,520 Speaker 9: wouldn't have changed that. It actually has changed, and I 771 00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:09,120 Speaker 9: think a lot of people will be setting up and 772 00:37:09,160 --> 00:37:14,719 Speaker 9: taking notice. It's also while true that university councils are independent, 773 00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:18,239 Speaker 9: and I ultimately believe they should be a portion of 774 00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:21,759 Speaker 9: the appointments are made by government. We actually haven't made 775 00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:25,160 Speaker 9: any appointments to Auckland. It's just the way the cycle goes. 776 00:37:25,239 --> 00:37:28,000 Speaker 9: But we will very soon. And that's another way that 777 00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:32,600 Speaker 9: an elected government can inject some fresh thinking and accountability 778 00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:36,480 Speaker 9: into these institutions. While they maintain the ability to make 779 00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:38,520 Speaker 9: their own decisions. We can add a flavor to that. 780 00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:41,239 Speaker 9: And you're starting to see that change. Still a lot 781 00:37:41,239 --> 00:37:43,640 Speaker 9: of frustration. There'll still be people who say, you know, 782 00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:47,759 Speaker 9: my council or this government department is still doing this 783 00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:50,040 Speaker 9: thing that actually doesn't make the boat go faster. 784 00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:51,080 Speaker 13: It's more about. 785 00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:56,839 Speaker 9: Compulsion than even in Mari culture. But nonetheless, I do 786 00:37:56,880 --> 00:38:00,319 Speaker 9: think we've got to chalk up the history curriculum that's 787 00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:03,400 Speaker 9: changed for schools last week, the fact that we are 788 00:38:03,440 --> 00:38:07,480 Speaker 9: no longer putting treaty obligations on school boards, and also 789 00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:11,200 Speaker 9: this reversal at the University of Auckland. I'm very proud 790 00:38:11,239 --> 00:38:14,160 Speaker 9: that we are actually driving New Zealand culture back to 791 00:38:14,239 --> 00:38:18,279 Speaker 9: an outward looking place where each person can succeed on 792 00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:21,880 Speaker 9: their own terms rather than be part of somebody else's 793 00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:25,439 Speaker 9: political projects and Cowden to fear against picking up against it. 794 00:38:25,520 --> 00:38:27,880 Speaker 2: Exactly well, so appreciate it very much. David Seymour. I'll 795 00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:30,800 Speaker 2: tell you what as apparent in this last decade, including COVID, 796 00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:34,160 Speaker 2: the damage done to the young people of this country 797 00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:39,080 Speaker 2: is almost incalculable. And the Auckland University ideology is a 798 00:38:39,280 --> 00:38:42,719 Speaker 2: major major part of that. Fifteen past seven The. 799 00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:47,239 Speaker 1: Mike Asking Breakfast Fall Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered by 800 00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:48,200 Speaker 1: News Talks AB. 801 00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:50,919 Speaker 2: News Talks at the eighteen past seven. My my daughter 802 00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:53,360 Speaker 2: bailed from Auckland University this year because of that Murray 803 00:38:53,360 --> 00:38:56,040 Speaker 2: directive and willetton Tiger next year. That's a common story 804 00:38:56,040 --> 00:38:57,799 Speaker 2: that happened a lot around the country in this last 805 00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:01,600 Speaker 2: twelve months, Morning Mike, Aukland compulsory, Mary learning. That was 806 00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:03,720 Speaker 2: the problem with Knitball and New Zealand pushing the culture 807 00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:05,640 Speaker 2: onto the players, and that's why you got the pushback. 808 00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:09,279 Speaker 2: That's the story I am being told to not that 809 00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:11,080 Speaker 2: Knitbull and New Zealand want to talk about any of that. 810 00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:13,120 Speaker 2: Of course, Morning Mike. What's the story of Adrian or 811 00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:16,239 Speaker 2: taking a court case? Johnny's not He's threatened a court case. 812 00:39:16,280 --> 00:39:19,400 Speaker 2: Michael Riddell, who appears on this program periodically Economic Commendata 813 00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:22,400 Speaker 2: former Reserve Bank worker, said a couple of things about Adrian. 814 00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:24,800 Speaker 2: It may or may not have been litigious, may or 815 00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:27,839 Speaker 2: may not have been correct. Adrian hired a lawyer, they 816 00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:30,200 Speaker 2: fired off the obligatory letter and I think things have 817 00:39:30,280 --> 00:39:33,839 Speaker 2: been resolved there. Mike Stephen, Adams, at thirteen million a year, 818 00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:36,960 Speaker 2: earns one hundred and sixty two times the average salary. 819 00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:39,080 Speaker 2: That's my point. The point is jobs are worth. What 820 00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:42,239 Speaker 2: jobs are worth comparing them to other jobs. Is it's 821 00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:46,840 Speaker 2: just that myopic media obsession we're bringing people down. Speaking 822 00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:49,960 Speaker 2: of which, ironically, David Cohen, who's done this just center 823 00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:52,439 Speaker 2: a dooming book, The Untold Stories, is with us after 824 00:39:52,440 --> 00:39:54,440 Speaker 2: eight o'clock this morning.

So Starbucks, if you 865 00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:02,200 Speaker 2: follow in national news, Starbucks are selling their China operation 866 00:42:02,239 --> 00:42:04,759 Speaker 2: because they couldn't crack China model didn't work. Pizza Hut 867 00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:08,040 Speaker 2: in America looking at selling. Not because Americans don't eat pizza, 868 00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:10,279 Speaker 2: of course, they just don't like Pizza Hut pizza. So 869 00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:14,640 Speaker 2: why are Valentine's the last great department store in New Zealand? 870 00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:16,879 Speaker 2: As The Herald told me yesterday, Why are they laying 871 00:42:16,920 --> 00:42:20,719 Speaker 2: off staff because of their quote severe recession. See I 872 00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:24,120 Speaker 2: love Valentine's Everyone from Christchurch love Valentine Morning teas and 873 00:42:24,160 --> 00:42:26,720 Speaker 2: grandparents and the Christmas display in them, all the exotic 874 00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:29,560 Speaker 2: stuff other people didn't stock. That's my childhood. Smith and 875 00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:32,160 Speaker 2: Coe were Auckland's landmark disaster. Of course they blamed it 876 00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:34,759 Speaker 2: on downtown. But could it have been the product as well? 877 00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:36,960 Speaker 2: Could it have been the model Kirk's in the capitol 878 00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:39,560 Speaker 2: when ages ago? Could it be Wellington? That myriad of 879 00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:42,680 Speaker 2: economic woes in Wellington? Or was it the model? See 880 00:42:42,719 --> 00:42:44,719 Speaker 2: I'm in christyuch. I mean you can't. If you can't 881 00:42:44,719 --> 00:42:46,799 Speaker 2: make a go of it in christ Church boom town, 882 00:42:47,239 --> 00:42:49,960 Speaker 2: then who can? And isn't that is the crux of 883 00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:52,880 Speaker 2: the question, isn't it? Christ Church is booming? People are arriving, 884 00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:56,040 Speaker 2: But are they in Roliston and therefore not in cashual 885 00:42:56,120 --> 00:42:58,279 Speaker 2: Mall and in that distribution of the population. Is that 886 00:42:58,400 --> 00:42:59,919 Speaker 2: part of the answer too? Still? 887 00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:00,560 Speaker 3: Sports? 888 00:43:00,600 --> 00:43:02,760 Speaker 2: I noticed just this week gone Bealley up in Christy 889 00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:04,719 Speaker 2: to one at the Palms, one at Northland's what's going on? 890 00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:07,120 Speaker 2: These are the questions we need to ask, and we 891 00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:09,480 Speaker 2: need to dig a bit deeper than the one overlightly 892 00:43:09,560 --> 00:43:11,960 Speaker 2: headlines that pervade modern coverage of the econmote spending on 893 00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:15,520 Speaker 2: hospows up, but hospow according to Hospbow's struggling, how can 894 00:43:15,560 --> 00:43:19,160 Speaker 2: both be true? The answer is in the detail. I 895 00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:21,160 Speaker 2: wish Valentine's all the best. I mean, I hope if 896 00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:23,400 Speaker 2: it is a deep recession they come out of it. 897 00:43:23,480 --> 00:43:25,919 Speaker 2: But equally, I hope they're asking what is it they're 898 00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:29,080 Speaker 2: doing that Maybe the modern consumer isn't buying anymore? Is 899 00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:32,359 Speaker 2: their service top notch? Is it still an occasion to visit? 900 00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:36,719 Speaker 2: Is stock still surprising in its breadth and quality? For 901 00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:38,839 Speaker 2: those who say department stores are dead, I have been 902 00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:42,480 Speaker 2: to Selfridges and Harrods and Neman Marcus and burgd Off Goodman, 903 00:43:42,920 --> 00:43:46,359 Speaker 2: do it right, you're booming. We all ride the economic wave. 904 00:43:46,440 --> 00:43:50,719 Speaker 2: But too often the economy is too easy as an 905 00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:55,680 Speaker 2: excuse to use asking thoroughly enjoyable afternoon. Call me weird, 906 00:43:55,760 --> 00:43:58,680 Speaker 2: but I enjoyed the voting yesterday. Nothing happened to the voting. 907 00:43:58,719 --> 00:44:00,839 Speaker 2: But just by the way, if you're a peripheral view 908 00:44:00,880 --> 00:44:03,520 Speaker 2: of the American situation, it was outside the norm. D 909 00:44:03,640 --> 00:44:06,880 Speaker 2: gitterary guy, I mean in New Jersey. Could he have 910 00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:09,520 Speaker 2: done better. Maybe did he do not as well because 911 00:44:09,560 --> 00:44:12,919 Speaker 2: of Trump, because of the times? Probably, But in terms 912 00:44:12,960 --> 00:44:15,399 Speaker 2: of red flags for the Republicans, nothing, There was nothing 913 00:44:15,440 --> 00:44:17,799 Speaker 2: alarming there. There was nothing on the ballot that you thought, Jesu, 914 00:44:17,840 --> 00:44:21,520 Speaker 2: this better go well for Trump. As far as interesting style, 915 00:44:21,520 --> 00:44:22,640 Speaker 2: I don't know if it's true. And this is why 916 00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:24,480 Speaker 2: we got Henry Olsen on just a couple of moments. 917 00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:28,680 Speaker 2: Somebody was suggesting yesterday two things, two main points of discussion. One, 918 00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:32,360 Speaker 2: the Poles appeared to be wrong. Yes, the result was 919 00:44:32,480 --> 00:44:36,520 Speaker 2: as expected or results were as expected, but the Poles 920 00:44:36,560 --> 00:44:40,160 Speaker 2: seemed to misread the size of the results. Second was 921 00:44:40,360 --> 00:44:45,200 Speaker 2: in Virginia Washington. Historically speaking, when the government has closed down, 922 00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:47,680 Speaker 2: it's always in voter's minds the Republican's fault. Now I 923 00:44:47,719 --> 00:44:51,480 Speaker 2: didn't know that. It's not a statistic or anything. It's 924 00:44:51,600 --> 00:44:55,719 Speaker 2: just that people blame Republicans when the government has shut down, 925 00:44:56,120 --> 00:44:58,160 Speaker 2: no matter who's at fault. And that's why you got 926 00:44:58,200 --> 00:45:01,520 Speaker 2: the result in Virginia that you got yesterday. I reckon 927 00:45:01,560 --> 00:45:04,480 Speaker 2: the highlight of the day for me was Newsom's speech 928 00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:07,560 Speaker 2: because he laid it on big time. They had Prop 929 00:45:07,640 --> 00:45:10,399 Speaker 2: fifty in California. They got up. But if you want 930 00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:12,680 Speaker 2: to know if Newsom is running in twenty twenty eight, 931 00:45:13,120 --> 00:45:15,960 Speaker 2: look at his speech yesterday. The answer is a great, 932 00:45:16,200 --> 00:45:20,919 Speaker 2: big fat yes. Henry Olsen Polster after the News, which 933 00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:22,680 Speaker 2: is next near a news talk s head. 934 00:45:22,560 --> 00:45:29,799 Speaker 1: Beat, credible, compelling, the breakfast show you can't bess it's 935 00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:33,879 Speaker 1: the Mic Hosking Breakfast with a Vita, Retirement, Communities, Life 936 00:45:34,120 --> 00:45:36,240 Speaker 1: Your Way, news talks, head blent. 937 00:45:36,280 --> 00:45:38,520 Speaker 2: The Untold Stories of j Cindra DNA book is out. 938 00:45:38,760 --> 00:45:40,560 Speaker 2: He's with us up write a clock meantime at twenty 939 00:45:40,600 --> 00:45:43,080 Speaker 2: three minutes so away from Made America was voting yesterday. 940 00:45:43,120 --> 00:45:46,000 Speaker 2: It turned out pretty much as expected, given natorial races 941 00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:48,279 Speaker 2: in New Jersey and Virginia went to the Dems. New 942 00:45:48,400 --> 00:45:49,439 Speaker 2: York Gottman Army. 943 00:45:49,600 --> 00:45:53,279 Speaker 18: Throughout this campaign, I've worked hard to be accessible and 944 00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:57,080 Speaker 18: transparent with New Yorkers. That same spirit will animate this 945 00:45:57,200 --> 00:46:00,880 Speaker 18: transition and the city Hall we built because New Yorkers 946 00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:02,800 Speaker 18: deserve a government that they can trust. 947 00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:07,080 Speaker 2: Prop fifty gone up in California, Pennsylvania Supreme Court sum 948 00:46:07,080 --> 00:46:09,919 Speaker 2: into the five to two Democratic majority. So what's Trump 949 00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:10,480 Speaker 2: think of it all? 950 00:46:10,640 --> 00:46:13,680 Speaker 3: The shutdown was a big factor negative of the Republicans. 951 00:46:14,719 --> 00:46:16,640 Speaker 5: That was a big factor. And did they say that 952 00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:19,080 Speaker 5: I wasn't in the ballot it was the biggest factor. 953 00:46:20,280 --> 00:46:22,400 Speaker 5: I don't know about that, but I was honored that 954 00:46:22,600 --> 00:46:23,040 Speaker 5: they said that. 955 00:46:23,360 --> 00:46:26,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, no, anyway, Pulse to Henry Els inspect, well, 956 00:46:26,840 --> 00:46:30,160 Speaker 2: this is Henry morning to you, after morning to you. 957 00:46:30,440 --> 00:46:32,520 Speaker 2: What do we read into it? I mean, the results 958 00:46:32,600 --> 00:46:35,000 Speaker 2: came in pretty much as they were expected to come in, 959 00:46:35,040 --> 00:46:36,440 Speaker 2: and so did it tell us anything? 960 00:46:37,480 --> 00:46:39,360 Speaker 19: I think it did tell us something because while the 961 00:46:39,440 --> 00:46:43,960 Speaker 19: victors weren't surprising, the margins were that no Pole had 962 00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:47,440 Speaker 19: the Democrat winning New Jersey's governor raised by thirteen points. 963 00:46:48,280 --> 00:46:51,800 Speaker 19: The Democratic margin in Virginia was much larger than expected, 964 00:46:52,239 --> 00:46:54,960 Speaker 19: and it carried down down ballot that lots of Republican 965 00:46:55,040 --> 00:46:58,960 Speaker 19: legislatures legislators lost their seats as well. So I think 966 00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:02,960 Speaker 19: what it shows is that there is a wish that 967 00:47:03,080 --> 00:47:06,040 Speaker 19: Donald Trump would spend more time on domestic issues and 968 00:47:06,239 --> 00:47:08,200 Speaker 19: that they were hoping that the economy would get better 969 00:47:08,640 --> 00:47:11,600 Speaker 19: and if Trump can pay attention to that, perhaps next 970 00:47:11,680 --> 00:47:12,920 Speaker 19: year will be better for the GOP. 971 00:47:13,920 --> 00:47:16,800 Speaker 2: Lot of chat about the polls. Were the polls a problem? 972 00:47:16,880 --> 00:47:18,279 Speaker 2: Did the polls misread it? 973 00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:24,520 Speaker 19: I think the polls will misread it. I think that 974 00:47:25,160 --> 00:47:27,439 Speaker 19: there was a problem in the United States is trying 975 00:47:27,480 --> 00:47:30,160 Speaker 19: to figure out who's going to vote in lower turnout 976 00:47:30,160 --> 00:47:33,680 Speaker 19: elections as opposed to presidential elections, and a lot of 977 00:47:33,719 --> 00:47:36,960 Speaker 19: the problems in the polls were because they misunderstood how 978 00:47:37,080 --> 00:47:39,000 Speaker 19: many Democrats would come out devote. The fact is the 979 00:47:39,080 --> 00:47:42,520 Speaker 19: electorate was much more democratic than the polls had expected, 980 00:47:42,600 --> 00:47:46,000 Speaker 19: and that was a big reason why they underestimated democratic 981 00:47:46,080 --> 00:47:46,680 Speaker 19: victoric margin. 982 00:47:46,800 --> 00:47:51,040 Speaker 2: I also heard reported saying that historically speaking, when the 983 00:47:51,080 --> 00:47:53,560 Speaker 2: government has closed down, especially in a place like Virginia, 984 00:47:53,719 --> 00:47:56,600 Speaker 2: when the government has closed down, it is always blamed 985 00:47:56,719 --> 00:47:59,520 Speaker 2: on the Republicans, rightly or wrongly. Is that true? 986 00:48:00,960 --> 00:48:04,239 Speaker 19: It usually is blamed on the Republicans because they're viewed 987 00:48:04,280 --> 00:48:07,080 Speaker 19: as the anti government party. Polling had shown before the 988 00:48:07,160 --> 00:48:09,360 Speaker 19: last week or so that it was much less so 989 00:48:09,600 --> 00:48:13,320 Speaker 19: this time, but I think it's hard to avoid that conclusion. 990 00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:15,000 Speaker 19: One of the things that happened in the last week 991 00:48:15,040 --> 00:48:18,640 Speaker 19: before elections is people were talking about the shutdown affecting 992 00:48:19,080 --> 00:48:22,080 Speaker 19: forty two million people who get food benefits from the 993 00:48:22,200 --> 00:48:25,920 Speaker 19: United States. People were having their airplanes disrupted because there 994 00:48:25,960 --> 00:48:28,440 Speaker 19: weren't enough air traffic controllers to put them up in 995 00:48:28,480 --> 00:48:30,640 Speaker 19: the sky, and it meant that it was beginning to 996 00:48:30,719 --> 00:48:34,040 Speaker 19: affect real people in their real lives, not just an 997 00:48:34,040 --> 00:48:37,680 Speaker 19: abstract thing. And that always hurts the party that doesn't 998 00:48:37,800 --> 00:48:38,719 Speaker 19: like the government as much. 999 00:48:38,920 --> 00:48:42,200 Speaker 2: What do the Democrats do about mndoni I meant Schumer 1000 00:48:42,239 --> 00:48:45,560 Speaker 2: and Kiy no one loved them. Is he trouble or 1001 00:48:45,680 --> 00:48:47,600 Speaker 2: is he the nonsense to the Democrats problem? 1002 00:48:48,960 --> 00:48:51,560 Speaker 19: He's probably not the answer to the Democrats problem that 1003 00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:54,960 Speaker 19: the people who led the landslides and more moderate states 1004 00:48:55,719 --> 00:48:59,560 Speaker 19: are more moderate Democrats. He won a very democratic city 1005 00:48:59,760 --> 00:49:02,360 Speaker 19: with barely a majority of the vote. It's really a 1006 00:49:02,480 --> 00:49:04,480 Speaker 19: question of how he's going to govern. If he governs 1007 00:49:04,560 --> 00:49:09,040 Speaker 19: as a pragmatic left leaning politician, he'll be less of 1008 00:49:09,080 --> 00:49:11,600 Speaker 19: a problem. If he comes out of the box and 1009 00:49:12,080 --> 00:49:15,799 Speaker 19: is somebody who seems to be grabbing for more than 1010 00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:19,080 Speaker 19: he ought to be getting, pushing too ideological agenda, that 1011 00:49:19,160 --> 00:49:21,279 Speaker 19: could be a real problem, but real depends on what 1012 00:49:21,400 --> 00:49:23,760 Speaker 19: mom Donnie does once he takes office. 1013 00:49:24,080 --> 00:49:27,120 Speaker 2: The prop thing Prop fifty in California, we've seen Texas 1014 00:49:27,200 --> 00:49:30,400 Speaker 2: and things. Is just America going to rewrite itself silly? 1015 00:49:30,680 --> 00:49:32,400 Speaker 2: Between now and twenty. 1016 00:49:32,200 --> 00:49:36,960 Speaker 19: Six Unfortunately a number of states will. We've got more 1017 00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:41,120 Speaker 19: states that are trying to redistrict Virginia. The Democrats are 1018 00:49:41,320 --> 00:49:43,560 Speaker 19: trying to do that to offset some of what's going 1019 00:49:43,600 --> 00:49:46,239 Speaker 19: on in these states. So I think at least three, 1020 00:49:46,400 --> 00:49:49,360 Speaker 19: maybe as many as ten more states will redraw their lines. 1021 00:49:49,960 --> 00:49:52,080 Speaker 19: And it is crazy. We haven't had this happen in 1022 00:49:52,120 --> 00:49:53,080 Speaker 19: well over one hundred years. 1023 00:49:53,160 --> 00:49:55,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, they said the economy played upot. I can't get 1024 00:49:55,160 --> 00:49:57,920 Speaker 2: a read on the economy, Henry. I mean, I read 1025 00:49:57,960 --> 00:49:59,600 Speaker 2: a lot about what they talk about the k shape. 1026 00:49:59,640 --> 00:50:01,799 Speaker 2: In other ways, if you've got big jobs and big money, 1027 00:50:01,840 --> 00:50:04,680 Speaker 2: you're laughing. If you haven't your own food stamps, you 1028 00:50:04,760 --> 00:50:08,600 Speaker 2: got trouble. What's the state of the American economy in 1029 00:50:08,800 --> 00:50:12,080 Speaker 2: people's minds, and how does that affect the abut I. 1030 00:50:12,120 --> 00:50:15,239 Speaker 19: Think for people in the lower third, they the data 1031 00:50:15,320 --> 00:50:17,680 Speaker 19: show that they have still not recovered their standard of 1032 00:50:17,760 --> 00:50:20,680 Speaker 19: living that they had before President Biden took office. I 1033 00:50:20,719 --> 00:50:24,440 Speaker 19: think they expected a return to the fast increases in 1034 00:50:24,520 --> 00:50:26,880 Speaker 19: real wages that they had in Trump. They're not getting it, 1035 00:50:26,960 --> 00:50:30,160 Speaker 19: and I think they're frustrated. For the middle it's a 1036 00:50:30,239 --> 00:50:34,280 Speaker 19: worrying time. You're generally secure, you're keeping ahead with inflation, 1037 00:50:34,400 --> 00:50:36,560 Speaker 19: but you're not really gaining very much. So I think 1038 00:50:36,960 --> 00:50:39,960 Speaker 19: for the economy it's not bad for most people, but 1039 00:50:40,040 --> 00:50:42,560 Speaker 19: it's not good for most people either. And it's that 1040 00:50:42,719 --> 00:50:45,520 Speaker 19: luke warmness when people thought Trump would be better that 1041 00:50:45,800 --> 00:50:47,040 Speaker 19: is disappointing them a lot. 1042 00:50:47,320 --> 00:50:50,279 Speaker 2: If you were a Republican strategist sitting here right now 1043 00:50:50,360 --> 00:50:53,040 Speaker 2: this night, member morning, would you be freaking out about 1044 00:50:53,080 --> 00:50:55,080 Speaker 2: twenty six or not right now? 1045 00:50:56,120 --> 00:50:58,440 Speaker 19: A freaking out is too strong of word, but the 1046 00:50:58,520 --> 00:51:01,400 Speaker 19: fact is they got slapped up side the head. The 1047 00:51:01,520 --> 00:51:05,440 Speaker 19: president's job approval rating nationally is at forty four percent. 1048 00:51:05,560 --> 00:51:07,839 Speaker 19: That's too low to have any chance of folding the house. 1049 00:51:07,920 --> 00:51:10,920 Speaker 19: Regardless of how many lines you redraw. What you've got 1050 00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:13,239 Speaker 19: to do is make some mid course adjustments. This is 1051 00:51:14,040 --> 00:51:16,839 Speaker 19: like halftime at a rugby match or a football game. 1052 00:51:17,239 --> 00:51:20,000 Speaker 19: A good coach figures out if they're team's behind, where 1053 00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:21,279 Speaker 19: they have to do different, and you've gone in the 1054 00:51:21,320 --> 00:51:24,120 Speaker 19: second half. Plenty of times we've seen games of two 1055 00:51:24,280 --> 00:51:27,080 Speaker 19: completely different halves. Could very well be that twenty six 1056 00:51:27,200 --> 00:51:30,359 Speaker 19: is different from twenty five. If it's not, they're going 1057 00:51:30,400 --> 00:51:32,560 Speaker 19: to depend on democratic screw ups to help them. And 1058 00:51:32,640 --> 00:51:34,600 Speaker 19: I'm not sure, it's a good idea to expect your 1059 00:51:34,680 --> 00:51:35,120 Speaker 19: enemy to go. 1060 00:51:35,560 --> 00:51:38,719 Speaker 2: I watch it. I watch Kevin you some speech. Is 1061 00:51:38,760 --> 00:51:41,000 Speaker 2: he good for twenty eight And if he is, does 1062 00:51:41,040 --> 00:51:42,200 Speaker 2: he play well nationally? 1063 00:51:43,080 --> 00:51:43,239 Speaker 3: Wait? 1064 00:51:43,520 --> 00:51:47,720 Speaker 19: Gavin Newsom is very quickly becoming the favorite for the Democrat. 1065 00:51:47,800 --> 00:51:51,239 Speaker 19: I think he is playing his party very well. But 1066 00:51:51,320 --> 00:51:53,680 Speaker 19: the fact is he will have a California to defend. 1067 00:51:53,760 --> 00:51:58,480 Speaker 19: The California that is high tax, high regulation, often places 1068 00:51:58,680 --> 00:52:01,799 Speaker 19: high crime. And he is culturally to the left of Americans, 1069 00:52:02,400 --> 00:52:05,160 Speaker 19: and stylistically he's very smooth on TV. But he's not 1070 00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:08,200 Speaker 19: the sort of person who dresses, talks, and acts the 1071 00:52:08,239 --> 00:52:11,000 Speaker 19: way a family making fifty five thousand dollars a year 1072 00:52:11,040 --> 00:52:13,080 Speaker 19: in a small town does. And that's the swing voter 1073 00:52:13,440 --> 00:52:16,680 Speaker 19: in a lot of these states, so to be seen. 1074 00:52:16,920 --> 00:52:18,759 Speaker 19: But he's definitely the Democratic front runner. 1075 00:52:18,800 --> 00:52:20,359 Speaker 2: Now, I don't know whether you I mean, I'm sure 1076 00:52:20,360 --> 00:52:22,239 Speaker 2: you're interested in doing what you view? Is this this 1077 00:52:22,560 --> 00:52:25,359 Speaker 2: Scouts thing today? The Supreme Court and the tariffs, has 1078 00:52:25,440 --> 00:52:27,319 Speaker 2: that got the potential to blow up in the Trump 1079 00:52:27,320 --> 00:52:28,600 Speaker 2: administration's face or not? 1080 00:52:29,920 --> 00:52:30,080 Speaker 5: Well? 1081 00:52:30,160 --> 00:52:33,120 Speaker 19: I have always expected that the Supreme Court would rule 1082 00:52:33,200 --> 00:52:36,640 Speaker 19: the tariffs to be an unconstitutional exercise of power to 1083 00:52:36,760 --> 00:52:39,440 Speaker 19: me the questions. If they don't do that, I'll be 1084 00:52:39,480 --> 00:52:42,040 Speaker 19: shocked if it would be a constitutional sea change in 1085 00:52:42,120 --> 00:52:44,880 Speaker 19: the way American government works. And then the question is 1086 00:52:44,920 --> 00:52:45,840 Speaker 19: how does Trump respond? 1087 00:52:46,120 --> 00:52:46,920 Speaker 5: And he could very well. 1088 00:52:46,960 --> 00:52:48,160 Speaker 19: Below the response. 1089 00:52:48,480 --> 00:52:50,920 Speaker 2: Lauran us talk to Henry. Always a pleasure. Henry Elsome 1090 00:52:50,920 --> 00:52:52,439 Speaker 2: American Pulse to sixteen to two. 1091 00:52:53,600 --> 00:52:58,040 Speaker 1: The Mic Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered 1092 00:52:58,080 --> 00:52:58,799 Speaker 1: by News Talks. 1093 00:52:58,840 --> 00:53:02,239 Speaker 2: It'd be speaking what's thirteen away from eight? I'll come 1094 00:53:02,280 --> 00:53:04,080 Speaker 2: back to be since argument about what they're going to 1095 00:53:04,120 --> 00:53:05,839 Speaker 2: do if they lose at the Supreme Court, which I mean, 1096 00:53:05,920 --> 00:53:08,200 Speaker 2: Henry's right, they are going to lose, So how they 1097 00:53:08,280 --> 00:53:10,400 Speaker 2: handle it's going to be the interesting part of it. Anyway, 1098 00:53:10,440 --> 00:53:12,680 Speaker 2: as we speak, this is live Trump's in Miami. 1099 00:53:12,719 --> 00:53:16,440 Speaker 17: November fifth, twenty twenty four. The American people reclaimed our government. 1100 00:53:16,680 --> 00:53:20,080 Speaker 17: We restored our sovereignty. We lost a little bit of 1101 00:53:20,120 --> 00:53:23,160 Speaker 17: sovereignty last night in New York, but we'll. 1102 00:53:23,040 --> 00:53:23,600 Speaker 13: Take care of it. 1103 00:53:23,640 --> 00:53:28,160 Speaker 17: Don't worry about it. We rescued our economy, regained our liberty, 1104 00:53:28,200 --> 00:53:34,399 Speaker 17: and together we saved our country. On that magnificent night 1105 00:53:35,840 --> 00:53:36,799 Speaker 17: three hundred. 1106 00:53:36,520 --> 00:53:41,040 Speaker 2: And sixty five days ago. Pauline Hanson. I note was 1107 00:53:41,080 --> 00:53:43,399 Speaker 2: at Marilaga the other day for the Halloween party twenty 1108 00:53:43,440 --> 00:53:45,239 Speaker 2: five thousand dollars ahead. I don't think she paid twenty 1109 00:53:45,280 --> 00:53:47,160 Speaker 2: five thousand dollars to be here. Gina ryan Hart was 1110 00:53:47,200 --> 00:53:49,480 Speaker 2: there as well, but Gina Hinehart's always there. But Pauline 1111 00:53:49,520 --> 00:53:51,960 Speaker 2: Hanson was an interesting thing. She's on the move in Australia. Anyway, 1112 00:53:52,000 --> 00:53:55,360 Speaker 2: back to the business of there wasn't even interesting that speech. 1113 00:53:55,360 --> 00:53:57,000 Speaker 2: He's got to get a new speech, doesn't em He 1114 00:53:57,040 --> 00:53:59,759 Speaker 2: says the same thing every time. I mean fresh and 1115 00:53:59,800 --> 00:54:04,240 Speaker 2: new material, mate. So what are the authorities that Besin's 1116 00:54:04,280 --> 00:54:06,359 Speaker 2: looking at? Section two three to two of the Trade 1117 00:54:06,400 --> 00:54:10,280 Speaker 2: Expansion Act of nineteen sixty two justification on the grounds 1118 00:54:10,280 --> 00:54:12,960 Speaker 2: of national security. Section three zero one of the Trade 1119 00:54:12,960 --> 00:54:16,719 Speaker 2: Act of nineteen seventy four regulates unfair trading practices, would 1120 00:54:16,800 --> 00:54:20,319 Speaker 2: limit the president's ability under emergency grounds. So they went 1121 00:54:20,520 --> 00:54:23,359 Speaker 2: the way they thought they could to try and get 1122 00:54:23,400 --> 00:54:25,799 Speaker 2: away with it. But this is the one of all 1123 00:54:25,880 --> 00:54:28,040 Speaker 2: the court cases of which there are been dozens now 1124 00:54:28,760 --> 00:54:31,440 Speaker 2: and he, broadly speaking, by the time he gets to 1125 00:54:31,560 --> 00:54:35,960 Speaker 2: Scotus wins. But on this I'm almost certain he's going 1126 00:54:36,040 --> 00:54:39,920 Speaker 2: to lose because he's arguing an emergency and trade is 1127 00:54:40,000 --> 00:54:43,440 Speaker 2: not an emergency. It's never been an emergency. And trade 1128 00:54:43,440 --> 00:54:45,960 Speaker 2: has been going on with tariffs back and forward, up 1129 00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:48,920 Speaker 2: and down, left and right pretty much since trade started 1130 00:54:49,000 --> 00:54:52,319 Speaker 2: hundreds of years ago, and so on. That he's going 1131 00:54:52,400 --> 00:54:54,960 Speaker 2: to fail, I think, And when he does, they're going 1132 00:54:55,000 --> 00:54:57,759 Speaker 2: to have to introduce things like well best it's right 1133 00:54:57,840 --> 00:55:01,120 Speaker 2: those but it'll be interesting to see where go and 1134 00:55:01,239 --> 00:55:03,480 Speaker 2: what it means globally economically. The other thing I don't 1135 00:55:03,520 --> 00:55:04,880 Speaker 2: have time for. That I will get to at some 1136 00:55:04,960 --> 00:55:06,359 Speaker 2: point if you want to do a bit of reading 1137 00:55:06,400 --> 00:55:09,400 Speaker 2: about It depends what they call it, private banking, shadow banking, 1138 00:55:10,000 --> 00:55:13,400 Speaker 2: secondary banking, the bubble. At the moment, a lot of 1139 00:55:13,440 --> 00:55:16,040 Speaker 2: people in the private sector have got into lending money, 1140 00:55:17,040 --> 00:55:20,399 Speaker 2: and that's the thing. If anything's going to blow, it's 1141 00:55:20,480 --> 00:55:23,680 Speaker 2: going to be that. And how it blows and when 1142 00:55:23,760 --> 00:55:26,160 Speaker 2: it blows and how badly it blows is the key 1143 00:55:26,239 --> 00:55:28,480 Speaker 2: to all of this. And this is AI, it's the market, 1144 00:55:28,640 --> 00:55:30,879 Speaker 2: it's gold, it's everything that's going on at the moment. 1145 00:55:30,960 --> 00:55:32,400 Speaker 2: So a lot of people have gone and borrowed a 1146 00:55:32,440 --> 00:55:35,880 Speaker 2: tremendous amount of money. Now if they've cashed up a 1147 00:55:35,920 --> 00:55:38,279 Speaker 2: little bit in their cash rich, they might be able 1148 00:55:38,320 --> 00:55:40,000 Speaker 2: to pay back some of the debt, but some of 1149 00:55:40,040 --> 00:55:42,160 Speaker 2: the people who have been doing the lending are going 1150 00:55:42,239 --> 00:55:45,839 Speaker 2: to take a bath. And that's the next big story economically. 1151 00:55:45,960 --> 00:55:47,879 Speaker 2: The FED was involved the other day to the tune 1152 00:55:47,920 --> 00:55:50,880 Speaker 2: of fifty billion that they had to throw into the 1153 00:55:51,000 --> 00:55:54,200 Speaker 2: pot in the because liquidity or equity became an issue 1154 00:55:54,600 --> 00:55:57,080 Speaker 2: in the American banking system last week. None of this 1155 00:55:57,239 --> 00:55:59,480 Speaker 2: is reported in this country, of course, but last week 1156 00:55:59,640 --> 00:56:02,320 Speaker 2: in the the banking system in America, it got stuck 1157 00:56:02,560 --> 00:56:07,080 Speaker 2: momentarily and they needed cash. And all of this is culminating, 1158 00:56:07,200 --> 00:56:11,120 Speaker 2: building up into a thing that will unfold. I don't 1159 00:56:11,160 --> 00:56:13,000 Speaker 2: know when. Could be days, could be weeks, could be months, 1160 00:56:13,080 --> 00:56:15,960 Speaker 2: but it is going to happen. So mark mark this space. 1161 00:56:16,440 --> 00:56:17,399 Speaker 2: Nine minutes away from. 1162 00:56:17,320 --> 00:56:22,480 Speaker 1: It the Mike Hosking breakfast with al Vida, Retirement Communities News, 1163 00:56:22,520 --> 00:56:23,400 Speaker 1: Tom Stead be l. 1164 00:56:23,560 --> 00:56:25,560 Speaker 2: Seven away from ete sick leave. Would it surprised you 1165 00:56:25,640 --> 00:56:28,480 Speaker 2: to learn averages now six point seven days per employee 1166 00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:30,239 Speaker 2: per year. Couple of years ago it was just five 1167 00:56:30,280 --> 00:56:33,680 Speaker 2: point five. It's costing US four point two billion dollars 1168 00:56:33,719 --> 00:56:36,319 Speaker 2: a year. Catherine Richard's business New Zealand's Boston is with us. 1169 00:56:36,360 --> 00:56:38,960 Speaker 2: Good morning, Good morning. So when we deal with these numbers, 1170 00:56:39,040 --> 00:56:40,680 Speaker 2: are they sick or are they slack? 1171 00:56:42,440 --> 00:56:45,960 Speaker 11: It's possibly a combination. There are many drivers for absence, 1172 00:56:46,719 --> 00:56:49,880 Speaker 11: non work related illness, caring for a family member. But 1173 00:56:50,200 --> 00:56:53,759 Speaker 11: employers did report that some people are taking paid leave 1174 00:56:54,320 --> 00:56:57,919 Speaker 11: when they're suspected for not being actually unwell. But that's 1175 00:56:58,400 --> 00:57:01,480 Speaker 11: always been the case when we've had humans in the mix. 1176 00:57:01,800 --> 00:57:03,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, is it part of a malaise in this country? 1177 00:57:03,880 --> 00:57:05,399 Speaker 2: If we're all in a bit of a funky you're 1178 00:57:05,440 --> 00:57:07,440 Speaker 2: more likely to go. You know, I can't be bothered, 1179 00:57:07,560 --> 00:57:08,760 Speaker 2: especially given it's a Monday. 1180 00:57:10,280 --> 00:57:12,880 Speaker 11: The combination there certainly has been a change in the 1181 00:57:13,000 --> 00:57:17,520 Speaker 11: workplace culture, and in some cases employees are doing exactly 1182 00:57:17,600 --> 00:57:19,840 Speaker 11: what they've been told to do. If you're unwell, don't 1183 00:57:19,880 --> 00:57:22,280 Speaker 11: come to work and splutter it all over your colleagues. 1184 00:57:23,480 --> 00:57:26,760 Speaker 11: But certainly with their rise and leave entitlements, we do 1185 00:57:26,960 --> 00:57:30,760 Speaker 11: think that it's reflected in the jump in the average 1186 00:57:31,400 --> 00:57:35,439 Speaker 11: absence of six point seven days per employee per year, 1187 00:57:35,560 --> 00:57:38,960 Speaker 11: and that's a big jump since twenty twelve when it 1188 00:57:39,040 --> 00:57:42,120 Speaker 11: was about four point two. That has a material impact 1189 00:57:42,280 --> 00:57:45,240 Speaker 11: on the economy and of course productivity of not just 1190 00:57:45,400 --> 00:57:46,800 Speaker 11: businesses but the whole economy. 1191 00:57:47,000 --> 00:57:50,520 Speaker 2: Did the five to ten days sickly by law cause 1192 00:57:50,560 --> 00:57:51,000 Speaker 2: a problem. 1193 00:57:52,840 --> 00:57:57,720 Speaker 11: It's meant that in some cases the extra days are 1194 00:57:57,800 --> 00:58:02,600 Speaker 11: meeting the needs of workers because particularly with an aging 1195 00:58:02,720 --> 00:58:07,560 Speaker 11: population and caring for dependent family members, people have been 1196 00:58:07,600 --> 00:58:12,040 Speaker 11: able to take leave for that. But it's certainly has 1197 00:58:12,200 --> 00:58:16,200 Speaker 11: contributed to an increase in the average amount of leave taken. 1198 00:58:17,000 --> 00:58:21,840 Speaker 11: But post COVID people really think about their wellness and 1199 00:58:21,960 --> 00:58:25,240 Speaker 11: they're less likely to soldier on the culdurl AD. They're 1200 00:58:25,280 --> 00:58:27,240 Speaker 11: more likely to think, am I going to be productive? 1201 00:58:27,400 --> 00:58:28,720 Speaker 11: If not, I'm going to stay home. 1202 00:58:28,920 --> 00:58:31,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, Because here's the problem. When you look, it's four 1203 00:58:31,640 --> 00:58:33,760 Speaker 2: point two billion dollars worth of damage to the economy. 1204 00:58:33,800 --> 00:58:36,240 Speaker 2: That's fine, but you can't what do you do about it? 1205 00:58:36,240 --> 00:58:38,120 Speaker 2: There's nothing you can do about it. Is that unless 1206 00:58:38,120 --> 00:58:39,600 Speaker 2: you're going around knocking on the door and going right 1207 00:58:39,720 --> 00:58:40,000 Speaker 2: prove it. 1208 00:58:41,880 --> 00:58:44,240 Speaker 11: It's very hard to measure, and so in terms of 1209 00:58:44,600 --> 00:58:51,440 Speaker 11: evidence of people pulling sickies, it's always anecdotal. But it's 1210 00:58:51,520 --> 00:58:54,440 Speaker 11: up to leadership in businesses. Businesses want to have a 1211 00:58:54,520 --> 00:58:57,280 Speaker 11: healthy workplace. They want people to come along to work 1212 00:58:57,360 --> 00:59:01,040 Speaker 11: and be satisfied and be productive. So it's a combination 1213 00:59:01,240 --> 00:59:04,720 Speaker 11: also of what businesses are doing to keep people well, 1214 00:59:04,760 --> 00:59:07,720 Speaker 11: and businesses are very innovative these days. They've got programs 1215 00:59:07,720 --> 00:59:13,160 Speaker 11: from vaccinations to fitness programs, gym memberships, a whole range 1216 00:59:13,200 --> 00:59:18,520 Speaker 11: of things. Working from home and additional flexibility has improved retention. 1217 00:59:19,280 --> 00:59:22,720 Speaker 11: But it's a combination leadership and also reminding people that 1218 00:59:24,000 --> 00:59:27,520 Speaker 11: that there is an ambition for all of us to 1219 00:59:27,640 --> 00:59:30,160 Speaker 11: keep the economy going and make sure our business is thriven. 1220 00:59:30,280 --> 00:59:32,920 Speaker 2: The cafin appreciate it. Business New Zealand CEO. There's a 1221 00:59:32,960 --> 00:59:34,960 Speaker 2: warning in Britain now, speaking of which this morning the 1222 00:59:35,040 --> 00:59:38,560 Speaker 2: number of second disabled people has increased eight hundred thousand 1223 00:59:39,840 --> 00:59:42,160 Speaker 2: in the last year and it's a crisis. We'll talk 1224 00:59:42,160 --> 00:59:44,840 Speaker 2: to rot about this after eight thirty. Meantime, the news is. 1225 00:59:44,920 --> 00:59:49,480 Speaker 1: Next asking the questions. Others won't the mic asking breakfast. 1226 00:59:49,600 --> 00:59:53,120 Speaker 1: We're the defender, embraced the impossible news togs there'd be. 1227 00:59:53,880 --> 00:59:55,840 Speaker 2: It is seven minutes past eight. Well the long way 1228 00:59:55,880 --> 00:59:58,640 Speaker 2: it was on decinder the mind David Coheny is about 1229 00:59:58,680 --> 01:00:00,160 Speaker 2: to be available in a lot of interviews, a lot 1230 01:00:00,200 --> 01:00:02,640 Speaker 2: of insight perhaps of you that wasn't quite as tarnished 1231 01:00:02,640 --> 01:00:05,680 Speaker 2: as the various efforts that have been produced. So fun anyway, 1232 01:00:05,760 --> 01:00:08,000 Speaker 2: Orthodovid Cohen is willis very good morning to you. 1233 01:00:09,320 --> 01:00:10,400 Speaker 14: Okay, Mike, how are. 1234 01:00:10,280 --> 01:00:12,840 Speaker 2: You very well? As an exercise, did you enjoy it? 1235 01:00:15,920 --> 01:00:15,960 Speaker 4: No? 1236 01:00:16,160 --> 01:00:25,240 Speaker 15: I didn't. I was trepidacious. It was a difficult subject. 1237 01:00:25,520 --> 01:00:31,280 Speaker 15: I'm familiar with doing cookbooks or books about music. This 1238 01:00:31,480 --> 01:00:33,840 Speaker 15: is the sort of area where you one tends to 1239 01:00:33,920 --> 01:00:35,600 Speaker 15: get very good notices. 1240 01:00:36,280 --> 01:00:37,360 Speaker 13: People like what you do. 1241 01:00:38,160 --> 01:00:43,560 Speaker 15: Politics is a minefield. So when I say I didn't 1242 01:00:43,800 --> 01:00:46,920 Speaker 15: enjoy it, what I meant to say, obviously is that 1243 01:00:47,440 --> 01:00:49,400 Speaker 15: this was more challenging. 1244 01:00:49,920 --> 01:00:52,680 Speaker 2: The seed of an idea came from where why tackle it? 1245 01:00:54,440 --> 01:00:59,120 Speaker 15: It came about fourteen years ago. That was the first 1246 01:00:59,240 --> 01:01:02,480 Speaker 15: time I met, in fact, the last time I met Justinder. 1247 01:01:03,280 --> 01:01:06,800 Speaker 15: We shared a stage at the Auckland War Memorial Museum 1248 01:01:07,920 --> 01:01:10,920 Speaker 15: and we went back and forth. That was with my 1249 01:01:11,080 --> 01:01:16,760 Speaker 15: old sparring part Russell Brown. We bickered about things here 1250 01:01:16,840 --> 01:01:19,720 Speaker 15: a little to the left, me a little to the 1251 01:01:19,840 --> 01:01:26,720 Speaker 15: other side, and I came away intrigued by this young politician. 1252 01:01:26,840 --> 01:01:30,600 Speaker 15: She was thirty or thirty one at the time, and 1253 01:01:30,840 --> 01:01:35,240 Speaker 15: so I began tracking her movements and then, of course, 1254 01:01:35,760 --> 01:01:41,760 Speaker 15: about five million of followed suit in terms of writing 1255 01:01:41,840 --> 01:01:45,720 Speaker 15: an actual book. Probably about two years ago. I thought 1256 01:01:46,080 --> 01:01:50,360 Speaker 15: you have to The ancient Greek said, count no man 1257 01:01:50,560 --> 01:01:53,919 Speaker 15: lest he be dead. Just cinder. Our journal isn't dead, 1258 01:01:54,000 --> 01:01:58,600 Speaker 15: of course, but her political career in New Zealand, not internationally, 1259 01:01:59,520 --> 01:02:03,600 Speaker 15: is over. So we can start to assess what went 1260 01:02:03,760 --> 01:02:04,840 Speaker 15: wrong and what went right. 1261 01:02:05,120 --> 01:02:08,640 Speaker 2: Have you assessed in your mind, hand on heart fairly 1262 01:02:09,000 --> 01:02:13,160 Speaker 2: or did you enter this project a fan or an adversary. 1263 01:02:14,880 --> 01:02:18,840 Speaker 15: I entered the project as someone who was Can we 1264 01:02:19,000 --> 01:02:22,320 Speaker 15: use the term non binary? And I mean that politically. 1265 01:02:24,280 --> 01:02:28,400 Speaker 15: I think one of the great tragedies of recent years 1266 01:02:29,560 --> 01:02:34,000 Speaker 15: is that we live in an era of the politics 1267 01:02:34,040 --> 01:02:39,760 Speaker 15: of emotion. You either love someone or you hate them, 1268 01:02:40,800 --> 01:02:44,800 Speaker 15: and Jacinta played into that with her politics of kindness. 1269 01:02:45,000 --> 01:02:50,240 Speaker 15: To some degree. I'm an old fashioned journalist. I started 1270 01:02:50,280 --> 01:02:53,880 Speaker 15: out in this trade when back when dinosaurs werew in 1271 01:02:53,960 --> 01:03:00,240 Speaker 15: the earth. One of our guiding ideas and junctions is 1272 01:03:00,880 --> 01:03:04,920 Speaker 15: to tell the other side. So it's actually not a 1273 01:03:05,040 --> 01:03:07,840 Speaker 15: matter of whether I like her or I don't. 1274 01:03:08,120 --> 01:03:09,480 Speaker 13: But the truth is. 1275 01:03:11,480 --> 01:03:14,200 Speaker 15: I could say yes to both questions and no to 1276 01:03:14,280 --> 01:03:18,160 Speaker 15: both questions. Journalistically, it was important to do this. 1277 01:03:19,160 --> 01:03:23,360 Speaker 2: The one hundred interviews just before Wooden clarity sake, I 1278 01:03:23,680 --> 01:03:26,400 Speaker 2: took part, including you. Yes, I took part. And so 1279 01:03:26,680 --> 01:03:29,440 Speaker 2: what interested me is I set aside forty five minutes. 1280 01:03:29,440 --> 01:03:31,480 Speaker 2: I stuck to my forty five minutes. And she was keen. 1281 01:03:31,520 --> 01:03:34,600 Speaker 2: Your researcher, Rebecca Keller was keing to go longer. So 1282 01:03:34,720 --> 01:03:36,600 Speaker 2: by the time you do me one hundred times over, 1283 01:03:37,400 --> 01:03:40,360 Speaker 2: raud knows how much material you had. How'd you edit it? 1284 01:03:41,520 --> 01:03:45,080 Speaker 15: We had about four hundred thousand words with the transcripts, 1285 01:03:46,280 --> 01:03:50,360 Speaker 15: so that's the Bible a number of times over, I 1286 01:03:50,360 --> 01:03:58,040 Speaker 15: imagine I looked for broad themes. One of the important 1287 01:03:58,160 --> 01:04:03,960 Speaker 15: things was balance. There's a very intelligent review in the 1288 01:04:04,040 --> 01:04:09,160 Speaker 15: latest Listener. It's not entirely complimentary, but it's not condemnatory either, 1289 01:04:10,880 --> 01:04:17,600 Speaker 15: bemoaning the absence of a number of left of center 1290 01:04:18,200 --> 01:04:22,800 Speaker 15: voices in people. But God knows, we tried right, and 1291 01:04:22,920 --> 01:04:23,720 Speaker 15: so what was. 1292 01:04:23,720 --> 01:04:25,880 Speaker 2: The problem there? They didn't want to say anything, or 1293 01:04:26,040 --> 01:04:27,920 Speaker 2: they the anonymity or what was it. 1294 01:04:31,000 --> 01:04:33,920 Speaker 15: Some of them had works in progress, like Grant Robertson, 1295 01:04:35,840 --> 01:04:40,920 Speaker 15: so there was that. There were probably a number who 1296 01:04:41,520 --> 01:04:44,280 Speaker 15: were not sold on the idea of a project that 1297 01:04:44,440 --> 01:04:49,280 Speaker 15: could be anything less than glittering in its estimation of 1298 01:04:49,400 --> 01:04:55,840 Speaker 15: the subject. And then there were I suppose labor party comrades. 1299 01:04:56,600 --> 01:05:00,800 Speaker 15: Can we still used that word who just we're a 1300 01:05:00,840 --> 01:05:07,800 Speaker 15: little tremulous when it went going there. That said, it's 1301 01:05:07,880 --> 01:05:10,680 Speaker 15: not as if the exercise lacks for such put before. 1302 01:05:11,000 --> 01:05:13,400 Speaker 2: No, indeed not. But could I also suggest part of 1303 01:05:13,480 --> 01:05:15,160 Speaker 2: it might be that a lot of people woke up 1304 01:05:15,160 --> 01:05:16,800 Speaker 2: a lot of people who were, to put it bluntly, 1305 01:05:16,840 --> 01:05:18,360 Speaker 2: and you know my views as part of the book. 1306 01:05:18,480 --> 01:05:20,760 Speaker 2: A lot of people who bluntly got sucked in at 1307 01:05:20,800 --> 01:05:23,720 Speaker 2: the time have worked out the cold hard reality. So 1308 01:05:23,840 --> 01:05:26,160 Speaker 2: what they might have once said, they no longer say, 1309 01:05:26,200 --> 01:05:29,240 Speaker 2: and therefore don't want to deal with the embarrassment. 1310 01:05:28,800 --> 01:05:29,080 Speaker 17: Of it all. 1311 01:05:30,520 --> 01:05:33,800 Speaker 15: I suppose there could be something in that. I haven't 1312 01:05:33,800 --> 01:05:40,040 Speaker 15: really thought that one through sufficiently, But yeah, it's extraordinarily 1313 01:05:40,160 --> 01:05:42,600 Speaker 15: difficult for any of us to admit that we got 1314 01:05:42,680 --> 01:05:48,720 Speaker 15: something so fundamentally wrong. We'd be lack an epidemiologists jumping 1315 01:05:48,840 --> 01:05:51,600 Speaker 15: up today and saying, you know, all the stuff about 1316 01:05:51,680 --> 01:05:55,560 Speaker 15: COVID from surfaces, we completely blew that one, didn't we. 1317 01:05:55,800 --> 01:05:59,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, maybe that's the next book. Actually. David Cohen 1318 01:05:59,240 --> 01:06:01,880 Speaker 2: Moore in just a couple of moments, unauthorized biography. Just 1319 01:06:02,040 --> 01:06:04,720 Speaker 2: into the untold stories. More shortly thirteen past. 1320 01:06:05,200 --> 01:06:09,760 Speaker 1: The Mike Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered 1321 01:06:09,840 --> 01:06:10,840 Speaker 1: by News Talks at. 1322 01:06:10,800 --> 01:06:14,240 Speaker 2: B news Talks A sixteen minutes past eight our guest 1323 01:06:14,280 --> 01:06:16,120 Speaker 2: as David Cohen, the book is there, just into the 1324 01:06:16,280 --> 01:06:20,080 Speaker 2: untold stories. Well, you can explain, because you already suggested 1325 01:06:20,120 --> 01:06:22,560 Speaker 2: you're the old style journalist. You're a journalist of many 1326 01:06:22,640 --> 01:06:25,560 Speaker 2: years standing. Explain to me in the best way you 1327 01:06:25,720 --> 01:06:29,480 Speaker 2: can what happened to the media during the adurn years, 1328 01:06:30,000 --> 01:06:33,240 Speaker 2: the AI thing on stuff stories, the favorability, the coverage, 1329 01:06:33,240 --> 01:06:37,960 Speaker 2: et cetera. Explain how so many people got so sucked. 1330 01:06:37,680 --> 01:06:45,120 Speaker 15: In I think the industry. There were honorable exceptions, but 1331 01:06:45,240 --> 01:06:48,200 Speaker 15: if they were to use a cliche, it was following 1332 01:06:48,280 --> 01:06:53,600 Speaker 15: the money. At that point. It was government law chess, 1333 01:06:54,120 --> 01:06:56,680 Speaker 15: which I think was called for you and I probably 1334 01:06:56,760 --> 01:07:03,000 Speaker 15: would disagree on that. Possibly we would agree on the 1335 01:07:03,160 --> 01:07:06,720 Speaker 15: fact that a lot of that support the Journalism Fund 1336 01:07:06,800 --> 01:07:14,600 Speaker 15: Public Interests Journalism Fund was predicated on signing off in 1337 01:07:14,800 --> 01:07:24,080 Speaker 15: favor of an extraordinarily controversial government policy, and that the 1338 01:07:24,680 --> 01:07:29,560 Speaker 15: seeds of undoing were embedded in that it did not 1339 01:07:29,760 --> 01:07:32,960 Speaker 15: serve the industry, Well, it didn't serve journalism. Well, it 1340 01:07:33,080 --> 01:07:37,360 Speaker 15: certainly didn't serve the consumers of journalism. 1341 01:07:37,440 --> 01:07:41,240 Speaker 2: Well no, And I would argue that the media, and 1342 01:07:41,320 --> 01:07:43,240 Speaker 2: this is also global, not there's got anything to do 1343 01:07:43,320 --> 01:07:45,640 Speaker 2: with jindrod In specifically, but I would also argue the 1344 01:07:45,680 --> 01:07:47,600 Speaker 2: media has never recovered in terms of credibility in the 1345 01:07:47,680 --> 01:07:49,000 Speaker 2: eyes of the public. Would that be fair? 1346 01:07:50,360 --> 01:07:55,320 Speaker 15: According to the Massi University Worlds of Journalism survey, the 1347 01:07:55,440 --> 01:07:59,480 Speaker 15: latest one, the fall in New Zealand is more has 1348 01:07:59,600 --> 01:08:06,560 Speaker 15: been more precipitous than most other comparable countries. So something 1349 01:08:07,200 --> 01:08:11,400 Speaker 15: in addition to technology, social media and all the rest 1350 01:08:11,480 --> 01:08:15,200 Speaker 15: of it is taking place here. I think that it 1351 01:08:15,440 --> 01:08:21,760 Speaker 15: was the the the bad for the corrosive effect of 1352 01:08:22,640 --> 01:08:26,759 Speaker 15: what ostensibly was a good idea, but it was terribly 1353 01:08:26,840 --> 01:08:31,439 Speaker 15: administered or artfully administered, and it did our business. 1354 01:08:31,560 --> 01:08:36,240 Speaker 2: Note So here's here's the key, Here's here's the question. 1355 01:08:36,400 --> 01:08:38,720 Speaker 2: I came to a conclusion eventually, but for a lot 1356 01:08:38,800 --> 01:08:41,320 Speaker 2: of the period I would ask myself and I asked 1357 01:08:41,320 --> 01:08:43,400 Speaker 2: it on here A number of times I can't work 1358 01:08:43,479 --> 01:08:46,680 Speaker 2: out couldn't work out whether Adourne was naive and a 1359 01:08:46,760 --> 01:08:49,280 Speaker 2: lot of this stuff was just her being elevated beyond 1360 01:08:49,280 --> 01:08:51,559 Speaker 2: to capability and she was trying desperately to work out 1361 01:08:51,600 --> 01:08:53,840 Speaker 2: what was going on or it was Macavelian and she 1362 01:08:54,000 --> 01:08:57,560 Speaker 2: I concluded eventually it was there was She was Macavelian. 1363 01:08:57,840 --> 01:09:00,799 Speaker 2: She had a plan, she was deliberate, she was overt 1364 01:09:01,280 --> 01:09:04,360 Speaker 2: porpit of truth, et cetera. And that's who she is. 1365 01:09:04,600 --> 01:09:05,479 Speaker 2: Is that unfair or not? 1366 01:09:06,640 --> 01:09:06,760 Speaker 3: Uh? 1367 01:09:07,640 --> 01:09:11,280 Speaker 15: That's one of the as hopefully many of your listeners 1368 01:09:11,320 --> 01:09:13,519 Speaker 15: will discover when they go into the shop and buy 1369 01:09:13,560 --> 01:09:17,759 Speaker 15: a copy this week. That's one of the great watt 1370 01:09:17,760 --> 01:09:22,200 Speaker 15: ifs about here, isn't it? What was she carried along 1371 01:09:22,400 --> 01:09:27,920 Speaker 15: on a tide? Was she simply adjacent to to to 1372 01:09:28,080 --> 01:09:32,000 Speaker 15: to something or was she did she, for lack of 1373 01:09:32,040 --> 01:09:36,639 Speaker 15: a better word, engineer it herself? You see. I come 1374 01:09:37,760 --> 01:09:41,400 Speaker 15: more on the adjacent side of that. I think she 1375 01:09:41,600 --> 01:09:45,920 Speaker 15: was someone with missionary zeal that was not entirely to 1376 01:09:46,000 --> 01:09:48,760 Speaker 15: do with politics. It was to do with her formative 1377 01:09:49,280 --> 01:09:55,599 Speaker 15: principles and experience. And you know, in the ethnic affairs area, 1378 01:09:55,720 --> 01:10:02,040 Speaker 15: for instance, she had a very a significant Marory caucus 1379 01:10:02,640 --> 01:10:08,680 Speaker 15: that certainly knew where it wanted to go. That is 1380 01:10:08,760 --> 01:10:13,800 Speaker 15: an example of that that was an example of engineering 1381 01:10:14,200 --> 01:10:17,679 Speaker 15: or pushing the country in a certain direction. I don't 1382 01:10:17,720 --> 01:10:20,519 Speaker 15: think your heart was as entirely into that. 1383 01:10:22,040 --> 01:10:24,400 Speaker 2: Interesting, David. I've enjoyed reading it, and I appreciate the 1384 01:10:24,479 --> 01:10:28,800 Speaker 2: time one hundred plus interviews involved in the book. Anyone 1385 01:10:28,840 --> 01:10:32,760 Speaker 2: who's anyone seemingly is in there, the untold stories, just 1386 01:10:32,840 --> 01:10:35,720 Speaker 2: into the untold stories. It's out now.

But with a deal like that, 1409 01:11:38,680 --> 01:11:42,320 Speaker 2: why wouldn't you element twelve magnesium only from about Health? 1410 01:11:43,000 --> 01:11:46,280 Speaker 2: Pasking Mike, do you get a mention? You missed the 1411 01:11:46,320 --> 01:11:48,040 Speaker 2: part of the interview where I said I took part 1412 01:11:48,080 --> 01:11:49,760 Speaker 2: as one of the interviewees. I'm one of the one 1413 01:11:49,840 --> 01:11:52,760 Speaker 2: hundred and this is a very good example of it. 1414 01:11:54,360 --> 01:11:56,920 Speaker 2: In the Wake I'm quoting from the book here in 1415 01:11:57,000 --> 01:11:59,120 Speaker 2: the Wake of the death of a Durn's cat Paddles. 1416 01:11:59,400 --> 01:12:02,080 Speaker 2: This goes back to the media. It's honestly, it is 1417 01:12:02,160 --> 01:12:06,160 Speaker 2: one of the great shames that I'd like to use. 1418 01:12:06,240 --> 01:12:08,080 Speaker 2: David words was very good. I was adjacent to it. 1419 01:12:08,160 --> 01:12:12,200 Speaker 2: I wasn't part of it. I'd like to think in 1420 01:12:12,280 --> 01:12:14,880 Speaker 2: my eulogy they might say he asked a few probing 1421 01:12:15,000 --> 01:12:19,040 Speaker 2: questions when others didn't, or words to that effect. But anyway, 1422 01:12:19,080 --> 01:12:20,920 Speaker 2: one of the great embarrassments has been a part of 1423 01:12:20,960 --> 01:12:24,000 Speaker 2: this industry that just acquiesced in the most embarrassing way 1424 01:12:24,080 --> 01:12:26,200 Speaker 2: for such a long and extended period of time. Anyway, 1425 01:12:26,479 --> 01:12:28,160 Speaker 2: here's the example. And the wake of the death of 1426 01:12:28,240 --> 01:12:33,120 Speaker 2: Adirn's cat Paddles Stuff eulogized the petters of beloved orange 1427 01:12:33,160 --> 01:12:37,000 Speaker 2: and white creature with adorable opposing thumbs. On the day 1428 01:12:37,040 --> 01:12:39,920 Speaker 2: Aderne was sworn into office, she was joined, as TV 1429 01:12:40,000 --> 01:12:43,600 Speaker 2: and Z reported by two adorable young nieces after a 1430 01:12:43,640 --> 01:12:46,880 Speaker 2: public address on the steps of Parliament. Shortly afterwards, as 1431 01:12:46,880 --> 01:12:49,759 Speaker 2: the new cabinet settled in, Adern sentwath the New Zealand 1432 01:12:49,840 --> 01:12:53,839 Speaker 2: Herald described as an adorable Christmas card to Queen Elizabeth 1433 01:12:54,400 --> 01:12:56,759 Speaker 2: closer to home. In January of twenty eighteen, she announced 1434 01:12:56,760 --> 01:12:59,360 Speaker 2: her pregnancy on Instagram by posting, again in the words 1435 01:12:59,400 --> 01:13:03,040 Speaker 2: of The New Zealand Herald, an adorable photo showing three 1436 01:13:03,120 --> 01:13:06,680 Speaker 2: fish hooks. Adorable was the word, but for some more 1437 01:13:06,760 --> 01:13:10,519 Speaker 2: than others. The country's most popular broadcaster, Mike Hosking, found 1438 01:13:10,560 --> 01:13:16,320 Speaker 2: the display a combination of fascinating and fantastically depressing because 1439 01:13:16,360 --> 01:13:18,360 Speaker 2: the media, like many of the public, fell in love 1440 01:13:18,439 --> 01:13:21,519 Speaker 2: with her. There's nothing wrong with falling in love, Hosking continues, 1441 01:13:21,880 --> 01:13:23,840 Speaker 2: But when you're a journalist, you've got to put that 1442 01:13:24,000 --> 01:13:26,560 Speaker 2: to one side and cover it in a fair and 1443 01:13:26,720 --> 01:13:30,479 Speaker 2: balanced way. But fairness and balance just went out the window. 1444 01:13:30,560 --> 01:13:32,560 Speaker 2: I've been in this business for forty three years and 1445 01:13:32,560 --> 01:13:35,160 Speaker 2: I've never seen such a large collection of people who 1446 01:13:35,240 --> 01:13:38,680 Speaker 2: had lost the plot completely. So, yes, I did take 1447 01:13:38,720 --> 01:13:41,760 Speaker 2: part in the book, and that is one of the 1448 01:13:41,880 --> 01:13:42,960 Speaker 2: quotes involved. 1449 01:13:43,360 --> 01:13:46,040 Speaker 20: So to pin the book not in the LoveFest? Could 1450 01:13:46,080 --> 01:13:48,599 Speaker 20: the gravest don't perhaps say he opted out. 1451 01:13:49,880 --> 01:13:55,080 Speaker 2: He distanced himself as quickly as he possibly could from 1452 01:13:55,560 --> 01:13:58,479 Speaker 2: those in the other room next to him. Good news. 1453 01:13:58,720 --> 01:14:02,280 Speaker 2: I think Michelin Stars coming, or Michelin's coming to New Zealand. 1454 01:14:02,600 --> 01:14:05,439 Speaker 2: If you know about the Michelin Stars and restaurants, Gordon Ramsey, 1455 01:14:05,640 --> 01:14:08,280 Speaker 2: Lane du Cass all that sort of thing. They've never 1456 01:14:08,400 --> 01:14:10,760 Speaker 2: been here. The mystery of how they work is a 1457 01:14:10,800 --> 01:14:13,120 Speaker 2: fascinating one. You're supposed to never know who they are. 1458 01:14:13,520 --> 01:14:16,080 Speaker 2: You're supposed to know they were never here. You're supposed 1459 01:14:16,080 --> 01:14:18,000 Speaker 2: to know that they weren't in the room at the 1460 01:14:18,040 --> 01:14:19,320 Speaker 2: time you thought they were in the room, and all 1461 01:14:19,360 --> 01:14:21,439 Speaker 2: of a sudden boom, you've got yourself the Michelin Star. 1462 01:14:21,479 --> 01:14:24,240 Speaker 2: And if you're really, really good, you get three Michelin 1463 01:14:24,320 --> 01:14:26,200 Speaker 2: Stars if you're at great. Of course, the Star rating 1464 01:14:26,280 --> 01:14:28,720 Speaker 2: is coming to New Zealand.

This morning, Morning, Mike, It's 1477 01:15:04,240 --> 01:15:08,120 Speaker 2: astonishing how Americans can be so blind to elect someone 1478 01:15:08,280 --> 01:15:12,559 Speaker 2: like Mindani. The US is so politically divided that they 1479 01:15:12,600 --> 01:15:16,280 Speaker 2: would vote in a practicing Marxist. Well, what were we 1480 01:15:16,400 --> 01:15:19,479 Speaker 2: just talking about in the last half hour, and go 1481 01:15:19,680 --> 01:15:22,280 Speaker 2: back to the election of twenty twenty and who did 1482 01:15:22,320 --> 01:15:25,120 Speaker 2: you vote for and the score was fifty percent?

If you hear occasional explosions, I'm not 1488 01:15:38,600 --> 01:15:41,639 Speaker 14: being attacked by Jahavi's. It's November the fifth and broon 1489 01:15:41,760 --> 01:15:44,120 Speaker 14: finite and there are fireworks going off all over. 1490 01:15:46,040 --> 01:15:48,760 Speaker 2: What's what are the rules on guy fawks in your 1491 01:15:48,800 --> 01:15:51,120 Speaker 2: particular part of the world in terms of private displays 1492 01:15:51,200 --> 01:15:53,920 Speaker 2: versus public displays? And is there an annual angst about it? 1493 01:15:55,240 --> 01:15:57,120 Speaker 14: There's an annual angst about it, and there are no 1494 01:15:57,760 --> 01:16:04,479 Speaker 14: restraints whatsoever really effectively. Even though I remember letting off 1495 01:16:04,520 --> 01:16:07,240 Speaker 14: fireworks in our back garden when I was four or 1496 01:16:07,280 --> 01:16:11,320 Speaker 14: five six years old, fewer people do that these days. 1497 01:16:12,400 --> 01:16:15,000 Speaker 14: They tend to go to the very big choreographic events 1498 01:16:15,320 --> 01:16:17,080 Speaker 14: which are happening all over the country today. 1499 01:16:17,560 --> 01:16:22,160 Speaker 2: Good stuff watching Lammy in Parliament It's like, honestly, you 1500 01:16:22,280 --> 01:16:24,280 Speaker 2: can't make the stuff up. So the guy you let 1501 01:16:24,360 --> 01:16:27,000 Speaker 2: him out and then you take six days to bring 1502 01:16:27,040 --> 01:16:28,880 Speaker 2: anyone of that. I mean, how do you explain this? 1503 01:16:30,560 --> 01:16:33,800 Speaker 14: It's inexplicable, as is the follow up story, which is 1504 01:16:33,880 --> 01:16:39,360 Speaker 14: that the same prisoners mis released two more villains this 1505 01:16:39,600 --> 01:16:44,719 Speaker 14: week and one of them is an Algerian asylum seeker 1506 01:16:44,760 --> 01:16:49,840 Speaker 14: who committed a sex crime. In this case, the exposed 1507 01:16:49,920 --> 01:16:56,000 Speaker 14: himself to people were not obviously the police. So the 1508 01:16:56,120 --> 01:17:00,760 Speaker 14: apologies continue. We have Lammy apologizing to the families of 1509 01:17:00,840 --> 01:17:07,040 Speaker 14: Hadush who were abused by Hattush Kebatu, who was rottenly 1510 01:17:07,120 --> 01:17:10,840 Speaker 14: released from Hepping from from Onceworth Prison having been arrested 1511 01:17:10,920 --> 01:17:15,840 Speaker 14: in Epping. It is going to be a continual running 1512 01:17:16,080 --> 01:17:20,800 Speaker 14: saw and David Lammie isn't very competent, that's beyond doubt. 1513 01:17:21,800 --> 01:17:25,080 Speaker 14: But this is something which is embedded deep in the system, 1514 01:17:25,200 --> 01:17:29,880 Speaker 14: you know, a failure of communication, a failure of understanding 1515 01:17:30,880 --> 01:17:35,200 Speaker 14: human errors. It's as someone recently said, it's the Home 1516 01:17:35,240 --> 01:17:37,320 Speaker 14: Office and it's not for purpose and. 1517 01:17:37,400 --> 01:17:40,160 Speaker 2: Does anything Does anybody pay a price for any of 1518 01:17:40,240 --> 01:17:40,600 Speaker 2: that or not? 1519 01:17:42,960 --> 01:17:46,360 Speaker 14: At the moment it looks as if not. You know 1520 01:17:46,479 --> 01:17:49,120 Speaker 14: that The argument is always well, you know, David Lammy 1521 01:17:49,200 --> 01:17:52,280 Speaker 14: didn't do it, obviously, and his only bedy in his 1522 01:17:52,439 --> 01:17:57,559 Speaker 14: position for you know, a few weeks, but you would 1523 01:17:57,680 --> 01:18:01,960 Speaker 14: imagine that at some point the governor of Wansworth, the 1524 01:18:02,080 --> 01:18:06,160 Speaker 14: guy who runs Wandsworth, must must be really looking to 1525 01:18:06,240 --> 01:18:09,760 Speaker 14: pick up his P forty five because if this continues, 1526 01:18:11,240 --> 01:18:14,160 Speaker 14: you know, it destroys all the face that there is 1527 01:18:14,280 --> 01:18:15,599 Speaker 14: in the system at all. 1528 01:18:15,920 --> 01:18:20,080 Speaker 2: Amazing pop quiz for you before we talk about the 1529 01:18:20,160 --> 01:18:25,719 Speaker 2: new land reform Scotland bill, who's the more who's closer 1530 01:18:25,760 --> 01:18:28,240 Speaker 2: to communism? Wales, Ireland or Scotland. 1531 01:18:29,600 --> 01:18:32,760 Speaker 14: That's a very good question. That's a very good question. 1532 01:18:32,880 --> 01:18:35,760 Speaker 14: They're all heading that way in much the same way 1533 01:18:35,800 --> 01:18:39,599 Speaker 14: as is New York. They're all they're all, we're charging 1534 01:18:39,680 --> 01:18:46,800 Speaker 14: that way. I think probably Wales because they can get 1535 01:18:46,800 --> 01:18:49,800 Speaker 14: away with all this stuff while still being more directly 1536 01:18:49,920 --> 01:18:54,599 Speaker 14: ruled by US. There's still Northern Ireland, of course, which 1537 01:18:54,680 --> 01:18:59,800 Speaker 14: is a kind of common free zone. But but Scotland, 1538 01:19:01,120 --> 01:19:04,799 Speaker 14: Scotland certainly seems to be the wokest country in Europe. 1539 01:19:06,000 --> 01:19:09,840 Speaker 14: They've gone down the lifestyle leftist route, but now they're 1540 01:19:09,880 --> 01:19:10,200 Speaker 14: looking for. 1541 01:19:10,280 --> 01:19:12,560 Speaker 2: Land reform and so how's that going to work? So 1542 01:19:12,600 --> 01:19:14,519 Speaker 2: when the land comes up for sale, what are they 1543 01:19:14,520 --> 01:19:16,600 Speaker 2: going to do just to impose themselves and break it 1544 01:19:16,680 --> 01:19:18,479 Speaker 2: up and spread it about the place. 1545 01:19:18,640 --> 01:19:24,280 Speaker 14: Yeah, that's right. There's something like one thousand, two hundred 1546 01:19:24,920 --> 01:19:28,760 Speaker 14: around about that figure of the landowners in Scotland who 1547 01:19:28,880 --> 01:19:33,240 Speaker 14: own virtually the entire country, seventy percent of the country. 1548 01:19:33,720 --> 01:19:38,839 Speaker 14: And these are massive tracts of highland, of forest, of grouse, 1549 01:19:38,920 --> 01:19:43,080 Speaker 14: hunting moors and Cairn gorms and so on. And the 1550 01:19:43,560 --> 01:19:48,960 Speaker 14: very leftish Alliance government in Scotland has decided that this 1551 01:19:49,040 --> 01:19:51,560 Speaker 14: has got to come to an end and that the 1552 01:19:51,720 --> 01:19:54,720 Speaker 14: lads will now have their estates broken up so that 1553 01:19:54,800 --> 01:19:56,840 Speaker 14: when they come up for sale, the maximum number of 1554 01:19:56,920 --> 01:19:59,080 Speaker 14: acres they can get rid of is something I think 1555 01:19:59,120 --> 01:20:01,640 Speaker 14: it was. I think it was twenty five hundred a 1556 01:20:01,680 --> 01:20:04,600 Speaker 14: because they can't have any more than that, and the 1557 01:20:04,680 --> 01:20:09,040 Speaker 14: rest of it will be sold separately. It's not something 1558 01:20:09,120 --> 01:20:12,800 Speaker 14: which I mean, the lad system doesn't have a great 1559 01:20:12,920 --> 01:20:18,000 Speaker 14: history behind it, if we're honest, and it possibly is 1560 01:20:18,160 --> 01:20:20,559 Speaker 14: right that more people should own a little bit more 1561 01:20:20,600 --> 01:20:25,400 Speaker 14: of the land, but this enforced social engineering sometimes turns 1562 01:20:25,479 --> 01:20:26,800 Speaker 14: out very badly in the end. 1563 01:20:27,120 --> 01:20:28,880 Speaker 2: Am I correct in saying they vote next to you, 1564 01:20:29,040 --> 01:20:29,320 Speaker 2: don't they? 1565 01:20:30,760 --> 01:20:35,000 Speaker 14: Yeah? They do, Yeah, they do, Yeah, And it will 1566 01:20:35,040 --> 01:20:38,040 Speaker 14: be interesting to see you as well. Given that the 1567 01:20:38,200 --> 01:20:44,919 Speaker 14: Labor Party is in incredibly rapid retreat everywhere. The Scottish 1568 01:20:45,040 --> 01:20:48,240 Speaker 14: National Party is despised nationally. Who are they going to 1569 01:20:48,320 --> 01:20:51,559 Speaker 14: vote for because the idea has always been the Scotland 1570 01:20:51,760 --> 01:20:53,400 Speaker 14: a left of center electorate. 1571 01:20:55,960 --> 01:20:58,040 Speaker 2: I know we've talked about this before, but there was 1572 01:20:58,080 --> 01:21:02,000 Speaker 2: a report out today and the former head of John Lewis, 1573 01:21:02,360 --> 01:21:05,320 Speaker 2: Charlie Mayfield, wrote it and he talks about the number. 1574 01:21:05,320 --> 01:21:07,320 Speaker 2: It's just that we got the job numbers here yesterday. 1575 01:21:07,400 --> 01:21:10,280 Speaker 2: That's also we're interested. He talks at the eight hundred 1576 01:21:10,320 --> 01:21:13,479 Speaker 2: thousand more people out of work due to basically illness 1577 01:21:13,520 --> 01:21:15,960 Speaker 2: and disability, whatever you want to call it. The economic 1578 01:21:16,080 --> 01:21:21,640 Speaker 2: inactivity crisis threatens the country's prosperity. He puts it at 1579 01:21:21,680 --> 01:21:25,519 Speaker 2: eighty five billion pounds a year. One in five working 1580 01:21:25,640 --> 01:21:30,920 Speaker 2: age people just don't work, can't work, won't work. Who's 1581 01:21:31,000 --> 01:21:32,000 Speaker 2: doing Who's fixing this? 1582 01:21:34,000 --> 01:21:36,400 Speaker 14: Nobody is and nobody will at the moment. I mean, 1583 01:21:36,479 --> 01:21:39,040 Speaker 14: the tourist of promised too, but then they have fourteen 1584 01:21:39,080 --> 01:21:44,960 Speaker 14: years to do it and didn't. Reformers is slightly handstrung 1585 01:21:45,040 --> 01:21:46,679 Speaker 14: by the fact that an awful lot of the people 1586 01:21:46,760 --> 01:21:49,000 Speaker 14: who it wants to get back to work out its voters. 1587 01:21:49,840 --> 01:21:54,360 Speaker 14: So it's been a bit quiet about welfare reform. And 1588 01:21:54,479 --> 01:21:57,559 Speaker 14: the truth is that, you know, since COVID one point 1589 01:21:57,960 --> 01:22:00,840 Speaker 14: an extra one point four million people haven't gone back 1590 01:22:00,920 --> 01:22:05,559 Speaker 14: to work, and they claim that they're feeling anxious and depressed. Hell, 1591 01:22:06,000 --> 01:22:09,600 Speaker 14: we're all anxious and we're all depressed. Yes, you know 1592 01:22:10,360 --> 01:22:14,320 Speaker 14: what it requires is someone to redefine what is meant 1593 01:22:14,360 --> 01:22:15,320 Speaker 14: by mental illness. 1594 01:22:15,720 --> 01:22:18,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, might go, well, see you next week, Roder. 1595 01:22:18,240 --> 01:22:21,080 Speaker 2: Little other thing that's gone wrong for the labor government 1596 01:22:21,120 --> 01:22:23,439 Speaker 2: overnight is remember the Chagos deal that was I've been 1597 01:22:23,479 --> 01:22:25,880 Speaker 2: pretty sure that was the beginning of the year and 1598 01:22:26,000 --> 01:22:28,439 Speaker 2: Britain were going to hand over Chagos and they had 1599 01:22:28,439 --> 01:22:30,200 Speaker 2: a bit of a back and forward about it the Americans, 1600 01:22:30,240 --> 01:22:32,320 Speaker 2: and we needed Trump to sign that off. Remember with Trump, 1601 01:22:32,320 --> 01:22:33,920 Speaker 2: where did he go? He went to Scotland, didn't he 1602 01:22:34,000 --> 01:22:36,120 Speaker 2: on the Scottish troup. He goes, yeah, I'll sign that off. 1603 01:22:36,120 --> 01:22:37,640 Speaker 2: So anyway, I was a deal. It's gone to the 1604 01:22:37,720 --> 01:22:40,600 Speaker 2: House of Lords and they've worked out that in the 1605 01:22:40,640 --> 01:22:42,800 Speaker 2: House of Laws are going to lose the vote, so 1606 01:22:43,400 --> 01:22:46,519 Speaker 2: Starmer Pault. So I don't know where the deal's gone now, 1607 01:22:46,560 --> 01:22:47,400 Speaker 2: so we'll keep you posted. 1608 01:22:47,439 --> 01:22:52,040 Speaker 1: Eight forty five The Like Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast 1609 01:22:52,240 --> 01:22:56,559 Speaker 1: on iHeartRadio powered by News Talks at be Just in Britain. 1610 01:22:56,600 --> 01:22:59,479 Speaker 2: They are like us, reviewing their curriculum at the moment, 1611 01:22:59,520 --> 01:23:03,800 Speaker 2: they're gonna put mortgages and AI in. Apparently mortgages. I 1612 01:23:03,920 --> 01:23:08,519 Speaker 2: could not be more into in terms of people understanding money, 1613 01:23:09,240 --> 01:23:11,960 Speaker 2: compounding interest, all of those sort of things, and if 1614 01:23:12,040 --> 01:23:13,880 Speaker 2: kids can leave school with a better understanding of how 1615 01:23:13,920 --> 01:23:17,680 Speaker 2: the world works monetarily speaking, will be better off. I'm 1616 01:23:17,720 --> 01:23:20,680 Speaker 2: not so sure about AI. There's so much to read 1617 01:23:20,720 --> 01:23:22,559 Speaker 2: on AI at the moment, depending on what you read. 1618 01:23:22,680 --> 01:23:24,519 Speaker 2: I think the general consensus I've got out of it 1619 01:23:24,640 --> 01:23:28,360 Speaker 2: so far is that the investment dollar for dollar isn't 1620 01:23:28,439 --> 01:23:30,640 Speaker 2: paying off. There's more money going in than there is 1621 01:23:30,720 --> 01:23:33,880 Speaker 2: a return. But most people say it's not wasted, and 1622 01:23:34,120 --> 01:23:38,400 Speaker 2: most people argue the return will come. Most people seem 1623 01:23:38,439 --> 01:23:40,360 Speaker 2: to say it's a bubble of some sort. There will 1624 01:23:40,439 --> 01:23:43,200 Speaker 2: be a material change slash improvement in the world in 1625 01:23:43,280 --> 01:23:46,479 Speaker 2: our life, but some of it will eventually get burnt off. 1626 01:23:47,040 --> 01:23:49,000 Speaker 2: A lot of people seem to indicate that if you 1627 01:23:49,040 --> 01:23:52,400 Speaker 2: look at the markets at the moment, if you take 1628 01:23:52,479 --> 01:23:54,880 Speaker 2: out tech, you take out chips, you take out AI. 1629 01:23:55,720 --> 01:23:58,439 Speaker 2: The markets are actually going that well at all, you know. 1630 01:23:58,479 --> 01:23:59,920 Speaker 2: In other words, when you get back to the fundament 1631 01:24:00,280 --> 01:24:02,640 Speaker 2: of life, things aren't going that well at all. But 1632 01:24:02,680 --> 01:24:05,400 Speaker 2: if you're in AI and in chips and tech, then 1633 01:24:05,479 --> 01:24:08,320 Speaker 2: you're laughing all the way to the banks. That's broadly speaking, 1634 01:24:08,400 --> 01:24:11,759 Speaker 2: and a huge number of jobs are being lost. Hundreds 1635 01:24:11,800 --> 01:24:14,200 Speaker 2: of thousands of jobs globally are being lost directly as 1636 01:24:14,200 --> 01:24:17,760 Speaker 2: a result of AI.

Beautiful and nothing woken sight? 1638 01:24:20,479 --> 01:24:20,840 Speaker 8: So funny? 1639 01:24:20,840 --> 01:24:22,360 Speaker 2: You should say that because I wasn't going to raise 1640 01:24:22,360 --> 01:24:23,720 Speaker 2: it because no one will see it, But yes, I 1641 01:24:23,800 --> 01:24:26,160 Speaker 2: have seen it. I thought it was complete and utter 1642 01:24:26,280 --> 01:24:29,759 Speaker 2: crap because normally John Lewis do a very good Christmas 1643 01:24:29,800 --> 01:24:32,439 Speaker 2: ad and they look, can I say, they look? I 1644 01:24:32,520 --> 01:24:35,080 Speaker 2: couldn't work out there's a man and a woman or 1645 01:24:35,240 --> 01:24:37,679 Speaker 2: is it a man and a man? I thought initially 1646 01:24:37,760 --> 01:24:40,120 Speaker 2: it was a son and a dad, but then I 1647 01:24:40,200 --> 01:24:41,760 Speaker 2: thought that dad looks very young. 1648 01:24:42,080 --> 01:24:43,720 Speaker 20: Why do you have to be so binary about it? 1649 01:24:43,840 --> 01:24:46,000 Speaker 2: Well, no, because I think I read it, they said, 1650 01:24:46,280 --> 01:24:49,280 Speaker 2: and it's a beautiful scene with father and son and 1651 01:24:49,320 --> 01:24:51,000 Speaker 2: I thought, oh, your father and son. Then I looked 1652 01:24:51,000 --> 01:24:52,720 Speaker 2: at the father and I thought he looks about three 1653 01:24:52,760 --> 01:24:56,120 Speaker 2: years older than that. Then I swear to god, it 1654 01:24:56,280 --> 01:24:58,400 Speaker 2: wasn't the dad. It turned into a woman, and it 1655 01:24:58,479 --> 01:24:59,559 Speaker 2: could have been his girlfriend. 1656 01:24:59,640 --> 01:25:02,880 Speaker 20: And so one of these silver dress, black dress situations. 1657 01:25:02,920 --> 01:25:04,920 Speaker 2: I don't know what was going on. Anyway, I'm looking 1658 01:25:04,960 --> 01:25:09,920 Speaker 2: at this thinking and cinematically it looked cheap crap as well. 1659 01:25:10,080 --> 01:25:11,880 Speaker 2: So an answer to you, quick, look, you've got me 1660 01:25:12,000 --> 01:25:15,280 Speaker 2: exercise here. I don't know what's going on. I've just 1661 01:25:15,360 --> 01:25:17,400 Speaker 2: got the word.
