That would include a 30 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:47,120 Speaker 2: six week ceasepire deal. Also, the key issue is where 31 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:50,960 Speaker 2: the IDF troops can remain inside Gaza after a deal 32 00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:54,240 Speaker 2: is signed.

This is his ninth trips since October seven, 46 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:43,240 Speaker 2: and the talks are basically a standstill over whether the 47 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 2: IDEF can stay or must withdraw completely from the Gaza 48 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:49,200 Speaker 2: strip or not. Talks are happening in Doha, wrapped up 49 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:52,680 Speaker 2: at the weekend, and Hamas says any talk of progress 50 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 2: is just an illusion. So there you go. Also, this 51 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:57,800 Speaker 2: morning there's a new health and safety report out and 52 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 2: I know how excited you get about health and safe safety, 53 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,680 Speaker 2: but there's some numbers in here for you which I 54 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:06,080 Speaker 2: thought were interesting. This is a report from the Business 55 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:10,760 Speaker 2: Leaders Health and Safety Forum. The fatality rate in New Zealand, 56 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 2: this is workplace accidents is sixty percent higher than in 57 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:18,800 Speaker 2: Australia and five hundred percent higher than in the UK. 58 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:23,320 Speaker 2: Apparently we have quite similar legislative settings, as they like 59 00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 2: to call them what we have fewer inspectors and we're 60 00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 2: less proactive with what we do. Brook van Velden's reviewing 61 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:32,400 Speaker 2: our health and safety laws at the moment. But I 62 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 2: would have thought that a lot of that would come 63 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 2: down to the higher risk injuries that we have. Industries 64 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 2: we have in New Zealand, like forestry and farming. You know, 65 00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 2: there's always a quad bike accident. Terrible as they are, 66 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 2: you know, they are rural. There are more variables, less 67 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:51,200 Speaker 2: things you can control in a forestry setting or a 68 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 2: farming setting compared to a factory. I would have thought, 69 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 2: and I think those numbers are played out when you 70 00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 2: look at the graph by region the worst Gisbon, Southland, Otago, Canterbury. 71 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:06,320 Speaker 2: The best Auckland and Wellington, which are obviously you know, 72 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:10,440 Speaker 2: easier to control, easier environments to control. Ten after five. 73 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 2: Also this morning, guess what is happening this week? It's 74 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:19,080 Speaker 2: the Democrats convention in Chicago.

Extreme misogyny 93 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,080 Speaker 2: will be treated as a form of extremism on a 94 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,280 Speaker 2: new government plans.

We're 95 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,159 Speaker 2: going to go to Gavin Gray just b four just 96 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 2: after the five thirty news. Right now we're seeing early 97 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:42,839 Speaker 2: signs of a turnaround for the economy. Asb's quarterly forecast 98 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:46,279 Speaker 2: shows signs in fation will fall below three percent over 99 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:49,360 Speaker 2: the second half of this year and remain well contained 100 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 2: beyond twenty twenty four. It comes after, of course, the 101 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:58,040 Speaker 2: ocr was dropped slightly last week. Nick Tuffley's The ASB 102 00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:01,359 Speaker 2: Chief Economists, good morning, Thanks morning, Good to have you 103 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 2: on the show. Most importantly, I think because people now 104 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:09,080 Speaker 2: feel like something is turning a corner household spending, when 105 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 2: are we going to see it start ramping up? Is 106 00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:14,479 Speaker 2: it straight away? Is it you know, in six months? 107 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 2: Is it Christmas? 108 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:18,360 Speaker 5: It's still going to take some time. I think we'll 109 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:22,279 Speaker 5: start to see some early signs trickling through. What we've 110 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:24,920 Speaker 5: got really is a number of people who will still 111 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:27,839 Speaker 5: be under pressure for some time, because even though mortgage 112 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:31,000 Speaker 5: rates have started to come down, there will still be 113 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:34,000 Speaker 5: some people where it will take a little bit until 114 00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:37,479 Speaker 5: they actually do see a change in their own own 115 00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 5: pay packet. Fortunately, what we're seeing is is that a 116 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:42,920 Speaker 5: lot of people when their mortgages come up for renewal, 117 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:45,160 Speaker 5: they've tended to opt for a short term like six 118 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:48,159 Speaker 5: months or twelve months. So the benefits will start to 119 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:51,360 Speaker 5: flow through, but we just need to take be a 120 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:52,279 Speaker 5: little bit patient. 121 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, the time leg should be quicker at this end 122 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:59,320 Speaker 2: of the cycle rather than the other end coming in right. 123 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:02,600 Speaker 5: Yes, we've had a lot of people who have been 124 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 5: sitting there so hope, hopefully waiting for interest rates to 125 00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 5: come down. And had a very early Christmas present last 126 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 5: week with rapes coming down, so that look it will help. 127 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 5: And the other thing is just the mood as well, 128 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 5: Like it's been evident for a lot of this year, 129 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 5: just how many people have just been holding out a 130 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 5: question of and asked so much as of when's my 131 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 5: mortgage rate coming down? And now people know. Businesses also 132 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 5: know as well that their customers will be seeing their 133 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 5: own financial pressures at ease over time too. 134 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 2: I went to visit a business on Friday. It's somebody 135 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 2: who I do work with. They're like a creative sort 136 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 2: of talent talent agency type place and they relyant on 137 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:42,440 Speaker 2: ad spend and they have walked into the office and 138 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:46,200 Speaker 2: they looked very busy, which I didn't quite expect. They 139 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 2: were hiring two new staff and they said they're one 140 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 2: of the first industries. You know, everyone sort of cuts 141 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:54,880 Speaker 2: advertising as then as there's a recession, they're one of 142 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:56,520 Speaker 2: the first to feel it when it goes down, but 143 00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:58,200 Speaker 2: also the first to feel it when it's on the 144 00:07:58,200 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 2: way back up, which I thought was interesting. 145 00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:02,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, and there's going to be lots of industries like that. 146 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 5: And I think the next story you're talking about is, look, 147 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 5: we've noticed over the last month or so, since there 148 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,560 Speaker 5: was speculation and interest rates would fall fairly quickly, that 149 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 5: there has been a bit of a change in move 150 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 5: and you will see those various sectors that depend on 151 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 5: where they are and the whole sequence of events, like 152 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:22,680 Speaker 5: say the housing market is one where confidence comes back 153 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 5: fairly quickly, as well as one example of an industry 154 00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:28,480 Speaker 5: that will turn around a bit quicker. 155 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 2: Thanks so much for that, Nick Tuffy with us the 156 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 2: ASP Chief Economists, just gone sixteen minutes seventeen minutes after 157 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:37,960 Speaker 2: five on your Monday morning. We're going to talk later 158 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 2: to Chris Cahill from the Police Association. This is the 159 00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:42,760 Speaker 2: report you would have seen at the weekend. The government 160 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 2: wants our police to be doing more breath tests. They're 161 00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:50,320 Speaker 2: going to start doing drugs saliva tests and they want 162 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:53,280 Speaker 2: fifty thousand of those done a year, two hundred thousand 163 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 2: extra breath tests. It was interesting looking at the stats 164 00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 2: in the report about what's causing our accidents, our high 165 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:04,120 Speaker 2: risk and death accidents, alcohol a contributing factor in thirteen 166 00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 2: percent of them, speed twenty four percent, restraints twenty one 167 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 2: percent of those who died or were seriously injured were unrestrained. 168 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:18,960 Speaker 2: In other words, no seat belt twenty one percent. And 169 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:20,959 Speaker 2: I wonder because the emphasis I think here is on 170 00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:25,760 Speaker 2: contributing factor, right, it's not the reason. It's a contributing factor. 171 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 2: And are you more likely to speed if you're drunk? Probably? 172 00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:32,840 Speaker 2: Are you less inclined to wear a seatbelt if you're drunk, probably? 173 00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:33,560 Speaker 6: So. 174 00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:36,640 Speaker 2: I guess killing one of those but bad turn a phrase, 175 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:39,120 Speaker 2: But dealing with one of those might help deal with 176 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:41,120 Speaker 2: some of the others too, anyway. Chris Carhill on that 177 00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:42,200 Speaker 2: just before six. 178 00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:46,959 Speaker 3: Ryan Bridge New for twenty twenty four on early edition 179 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:50,559 Speaker 3: with Smith City, New Zealand's Furniture Beds and a Playing Store. 180 00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 3: News Talk SI, they. 181 00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 2: Five twenty lots of focus this week will go on 182 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:58,719 Speaker 2: the Democrats convention in Chicago, but also still a lot 183 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:01,840 Speaker 2: of focus on Trump, not what he's scripted to say, 184 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 2: but what he says when he goes off script. And 185 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:07,920 Speaker 2: a lot of people criticize him for this because they say, well, 186 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:10,640 Speaker 2: you should stay on message, but that's not really what 187 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:13,480 Speaker 2: he's known for, is it. And if you're one of 188 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 2: the supporters, Republican supporters going to one of these rallies, 189 00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:19,120 Speaker 2: you want to see a bit of off the cuff, 190 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:20,520 Speaker 2: and he certainly did that yesterday. 191 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:21,959 Speaker 7: People say, be nice. 192 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:23,840 Speaker 2: Have you heard her laugh? 193 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:28,080 Speaker 7: That is the laugh of a crazy person. That is 194 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 7: the laugh of a crazy It's a laugh of a lunatic. 195 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:32,600 Speaker 3: Have you heard. 196 00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 2: There? You go? I don't think he's going to stop 197 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:40,320 Speaker 2: doing that anytime soon, and those who try probably wasting 198 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:42,680 Speaker 2: their time. I would think. Twenty one minutes after five, 199 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 2: Ryan Bridge, Sport, We're going to go this morning to 200 00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 2: Adam Cooper who's in Wellington. Adam, good morning morning, Ryan. 201 00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:51,840 Speaker 2: How are you very well? Thank you? So we won 202 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 2: against Argentina. That was a good go. Well, it got 203 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:56,680 Speaker 2: a little bit boring towards the end, but that's because 204 00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:59,240 Speaker 2: we knew we were going to win well exactly. And 205 00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 2: isn't that a nice per to be? 206 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 8: And as an All Blacks fan, I guess, especially after 207 00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:06,440 Speaker 8: the real disappointment of Test one against Argentina just a 208 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:08,520 Speaker 8: week prior it was hard to believe that only seven 209 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 8: days separated what we saw from the All Blacks. I 210 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:14,440 Speaker 8: thought that that clearly just I thought gone back to 211 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 8: the basics, that they knutted down exactly what they'd planned 212 00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 8: to do in the first Test in Wellington, but just 213 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:23,560 Speaker 8: weren't able to execute. So personally, I just think you've 214 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 8: got a credit that the forward pack, and especially the 215 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 8: leaders of the forward pack, the likes of Artis sav 216 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:30,439 Speaker 8: They just Jeff from the get go, you could just 217 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:32,680 Speaker 8: tell that they were going to be physically dominant during 218 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:35,320 Speaker 8: this game. They got on the scoreboard very early on, 219 00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:37,920 Speaker 8: and I think a lot of the disappointments we were 220 00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:41,000 Speaker 8: talking about this time last week were overcome forty to 221 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,120 Speaker 8: ten to sort of, you know, go back against that. 222 00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 8: The result they had last week was really impressive, and 223 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:49,840 Speaker 8: across the park, a lot of the people who had 224 00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:52,600 Speaker 8: question marks around their performances from the week before, the 225 00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 8: likes of TJ. Peninata and Damian McKenzie in the back line, 226 00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:59,160 Speaker 8: I thought they certainly played themselves into continuing on with 227 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:01,520 Speaker 8: those roles as they head now to South Africa. But 228 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:05,680 Speaker 8: also Ryan obviously impressive that this thirty year unbeaten run 229 00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 8: at eden Park continues. It's amazing that the fortress that 230 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:13,120 Speaker 8: the main stadium in New Zealand provides to the national team. 231 00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 8: So yeah, a lot of happy faces, but it does 232 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:17,840 Speaker 8: get tough. Now they can get this one against Argentina, 233 00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 8: but it all goes on the line again when they 234 00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 8: had to two tough, brutal tests in South Africa in 235 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:23,920 Speaker 8: a couple of weeks time. 236 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:26,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel whenever people talk about this winning streak 237 00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 2: at eden Park, I just get nervous for whoever loses, 238 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:32,800 Speaker 2: because it will happen one day and I would just 239 00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:34,920 Speaker 2: hate to be that coach, hate to be that team. 240 00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:38,360 Speaker 2: Adam Israel Adisonia's the UFC losses. It's a big deal. 241 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:40,520 Speaker 2: Is he going to retire, Well, he's. 242 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:43,679 Speaker 8: Very emphatically sort of talking down that retirement chat at 243 00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 8: the moment, but it is you know, once people do 244 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:51,120 Speaker 8: start to have uncharacteristic uncharacteristic trends or features, it's always 245 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:53,680 Speaker 8: a question that pops up. I mean, he's now had 246 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:56,480 Speaker 8: two losses in a row for the first time in 247 00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:58,880 Speaker 8: his career. It was the first time he lost in submission, 248 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:02,440 Speaker 8: so that was, you know, quite a surprise in terms 249 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 8: of the way things panned out to Dreka's duplas in 250 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:08,680 Speaker 8: the UFC middleweight title fight yesterday. But I think we 251 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:10,719 Speaker 8: all know and we've come to know Israel utisign you 252 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 8: quite well over the years, how you know, headstrong years 253 00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:15,960 Speaker 8: in terms of just wanting to go back and work hard. 254 00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:18,480 Speaker 8: And he made that comment right after the fight in 255 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:22,600 Speaker 8: Perth yesterday. He sort of followed up his opponents who said, hey, 256 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:24,640 Speaker 8: it might be time out of sun your retires, But 257 00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:26,559 Speaker 8: is he just going to head straight back to Auckland, 258 00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:28,719 Speaker 8: straight back to the gym and get his career back 259 00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:31,080 Speaker 8: on track. So I do not think we will see 260 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:35,240 Speaker 8: him even ponder the question of retirement anytime soon, and 261 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:36,760 Speaker 8: wanting to get back to the top and add to 262 00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:38,080 Speaker 8: those two titles he has. 263 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:42,040 Speaker 2: Anthony has checked the show to say, Hi, ask Adam 264 00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 2: to add yesterday's NPC rugby scores into the sports news. 265 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:48,600 Speaker 8: Please there in the sports news, and I can tell 266 00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:51,319 Speaker 8: you Wellington had a good win yesterday and I can 267 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:53,920 Speaker 8: tell you why cat I had a good one over Counties. 268 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:56,679 Speaker 2: Here we go, brilliant. I was wondering whether I'd be 269 00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:58,880 Speaker 2: putting you on the spot there, but you're all acrosst Adam, 270 00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:01,040 Speaker 2: thank you very much. Adam Cooper Zebe's Sport out of 271 00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 2: our Wellington office this morning, twenty four minutes after five 272 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,400 Speaker 2: when we come back, actually just after the news at 273 00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:09,560 Speaker 2: five point thirty, we've got Gavin Gray out of the UK. 274 00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:12,560 Speaker 2: Also Chris Carhill coming your way from the Police Association. 275 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 2: Did you see the video of the guy and the 276 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:19,480 Speaker 2: girl in the ute in Hamilton just ramming the back 277 00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 2: of a police car and there were police officers trying 278 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:27,320 Speaker 2: to get into it. Have a listen to this jumping 279 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 2: out of the way. Is this idiot? The reverses into 280 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 2: a police car. Absolute scenes in Hamilton. We'll ask Chris 281 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 2: Carle about that. Twenty five after five. 282 00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 3: The early edition full show podcast on iHeartRadio how It 283 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:46,400 Speaker 3: By News. 284 00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:49,960 Speaker 2: Talks at me outrage at the weekend over the Human 285 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:53,680 Speaker 2: Rights Commission. This is from some corners at least. The 286 00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:57,440 Speaker 2: chief Human Rights Commissioner has been announced as doctor Stephen Rainbow. 287 00:14:57,680 --> 00:15:01,760 Speaker 2: And he was once accused a q of being transphobic 288 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:05,680 Speaker 2: or anti trans And it's one of those terms that 289 00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:08,280 Speaker 2: can quickly change the tone or the perception of an 290 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:11,400 Speaker 2: article that you're reading. And I remember this from the 291 00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:15,280 Speaker 2: University College campus protests over in the States. You would 292 00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:18,640 Speaker 2: read the CNN copy on the story and it would 293 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:22,400 Speaker 2: say they were pro Palestinian protesters. You would read the 294 00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:25,160 Speaker 2: Fox News version and it would say that anti Israel. 295 00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:29,080 Speaker 2: Who decides what you are? If you're pro one thing, 296 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:33,400 Speaker 2: does it automatically make you anti the other? Women's rights campaigners? 297 00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:35,480 Speaker 2: And this was the point that I think was being 298 00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:40,360 Speaker 2: made about doctor Stephen Rainbow the women's rights campaigners. Do 299 00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:43,400 Speaker 2: they hate or are they anti trans people? Or are 300 00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:46,880 Speaker 2: they just pro women's rights as they would claim that 301 00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:50,000 Speaker 2: they are. And equally, just because you want to cease 302 00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:53,800 Speaker 2: fire in Gaza, it doesn't mean you're antisemitic, does it. 303 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:57,400 Speaker 2: There seems to be a polarization happening here. You're this 304 00:15:57,520 --> 00:15:59,240 Speaker 2: or you're that, or you're all of your or your 305 00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:02,000 Speaker 2: nothing or it's black and white, And we do it 306 00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:03,760 Speaker 2: in the media all the time. We're probably the most 307 00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:06,960 Speaker 2: guilty of it, I have to say. And whoever is 308 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:10,880 Speaker 2: shouting the loudest, I think tends to get dominate the 309 00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:14,440 Speaker 2: news cycle. But then again, what's that based on? Like tweets? 310 00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 2: Is that really how you decide or define what someone 311 00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 2: feels about an issue? I always found it odd when 312 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:24,560 Speaker 2: it came to abortion, which is a very divisive issue. Obviously, 313 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:28,240 Speaker 2: people feel very personally about this issue. Are you pro 314 00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 2: life or anti abortion? Are you women's choice or pro abortion? 315 00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:38,400 Speaker 2: Is anybody really pro abortion? You know what I mean. 316 00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 2: You might want women to choose, but surely nobody's actually 317 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 2: pro abortion. I've really got no idea how to resolve 318 00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 2: this problem of labeling in the media other than when 319 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 2: somebody's labeled anti something. Nowadays, I'm inclined to find out why, 320 00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:57,560 Speaker 2: how and if, to my mind at least their motivations 321 00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:02,520 Speaker 2: aren't just pro something else. Twenty nine after five Ryan 322 00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:05,160 Speaker 2: Bridge shut car Hills Head Just before sex, we'll ask 323 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:10,399 Speaker 2: him about that boy racer business in Hamilton over the weekend.

We'll 326 00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:19,760 Speaker 2: ask them just before sex. 327 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:23,080 Speaker 5: Is swey? 328 00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:28,480 Speaker 2: That's the beasts. 329 00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:32,840 Speaker 3: The news you need this morning and the in depth 330 00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:36,840 Speaker 3: analysis early edition with Ryan Bridge and Smith City New 331 00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:39,919 Speaker 3: Zealand's furniture bids and a playing store news talks. 332 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:40,240 Speaker 2: It'd be. 333 00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:51,320 Speaker 9: Day let that can thanks Jun myself every week. 334 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:54,199 Speaker 2: Care if you don't tell they said to you more. 335 00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:58,960 Speaker 2: Good morning, it is twenty four minutes away from six. 336 00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:03,400 Speaker 2: This IS's favorite song, apparently Leo.

Darren Rainbird had planned to 377 00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:19,480 Speaker 10: open the ground in the old Chief Post Office building 378 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:22,480 Speaker 10: in twenty twenty one. Had used crowdfunding to raise a 379 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:25,560 Speaker 10: lot of the needed funds in return for company shares. 380 00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:28,639 Speaker 10: Plans have been pushed back multiple times before. That was 381 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:32,840 Speaker 10: because of COVID, rising costs and issues with securing funding 382 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:35,719 Speaker 10: along the way. He's now written to shareholders saying his 383 00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:38,920 Speaker 10: own home will be sold and a move to voluntary 384 00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:41,080 Speaker 10: liquidation is likely this Wednesday. 385 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:43,600 Speaker 2: That's not good for progress, is it. How's the weather clear? 386 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:47,440 Speaker 10: Well, it's rainy here in christ Church, been snow elsewhere 387 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:50,760 Speaker 10: in North Canterbury etc. Overnight snow will fall today to 388 00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:55,080 Speaker 10: about five hundred meters. Southwesterlies strong, the high only nine 389 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:56,600 Speaker 10: with minus four overnight. 390 00:20:56,840 --> 00:21:00,320 Speaker 2: Thank you Maxis and Wellington Hamax. What's cr what's the 391 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:01,480 Speaker 2: go with your public transport? 392 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:06,399 Speaker 4: So Metlink has done their annual survey assessing how happy 393 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:08,919 Speaker 4: people are with how things are running, and while the 394 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:11,639 Speaker 4: trains may not run on weekends, the ferries seem to 395 00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:15,280 Speaker 4: be a catastrophe waiting to happen. This shows that ninety 396 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:19,120 Speaker 4: two percent of Wellingtonians are actually pretty happy with how 397 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:22,120 Speaker 4: things are going. That's out of three thousand respondents, down 398 00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:25,080 Speaker 4: a single percent on last year, but still high. The 399 00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:29,400 Speaker 4: Johnsonville line getting the best response. The Stark exception widered APPA, 400 00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:32,760 Speaker 4: which recently laid new tracks that turned out to be 401 00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:34,960 Speaker 4: too narrow, so the trains had to slow down, meaning 402 00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:38,280 Speaker 4: every journey arrived late. Only eight percent of wider Appens 403 00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:44,000 Speaker 4: satisfied with their line. Also, interestingly, twenty percent fall in satisfaction. 404 00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:48,080 Speaker 4: We're regarding fair value for money that coinciding with the 405 00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:49,840 Speaker 4: fair subsidies coming to an end. 406 00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:52,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, and also I guess cost a living too. The 407 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:56,080 Speaker 2: wided Apper line is a mess because although it's probably 408 00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:58,040 Speaker 2: saved by the fact because I've done that line a 409 00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:00,679 Speaker 2: couple of times and you just you're right, you come 410 00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:03,440 Speaker 2: over the room attackers and well under the room attackers 411 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:05,840 Speaker 2: and then you just slow right down. But it's probably 412 00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:08,119 Speaker 2: saved by the road, which, now that they've dropped the 413 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 2: speed limit, takes ages to get to Masterton. So that's 414 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:13,720 Speaker 2: right anyway. Weather today max. 415 00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:18,000 Speaker 4: More stormy weather, rain heavy at times, thunderstorms possible for 416 00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:21,240 Speaker 4: most of the day's strong Southerly's twelve the High Central. 417 00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:23,840 Speaker 2: Thank you, Wendy Petres in Auckland this morning. Good morning, 418 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:26,119 Speaker 2: not Anna, good to see you again. One of the 419 00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:28,760 Speaker 2: country's biggest schools clamping down on zone fraud. 420 00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:31,440 Speaker 6: Yes, nine students have been kicked out of one of 421 00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 6: New Zealand's biggest schools after zone fraud. Enrollment fraud as 422 00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:38,240 Speaker 6: spiked a schools deal with ballooning roles amid increasing immigration 423 00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:42,680 Speaker 6: and info housing. Auckland's McLean's College requires parents to prove 424 00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:45,520 Speaker 6: they live in zone when enrolling their children. Last year, 425 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 6: it had to kick nine pupils out after discovering they 426 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:51,880 Speaker 6: were fraudulently enrolled. Four were re enrolled after their families 427 00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:54,480 Speaker 6: then moved into the school zone. The school did a 428 00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:57,760 Speaker 6: blanket request for power bills proving the addresses of the 429 00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:01,240 Speaker 6: roughly seven hundred pupils enrolled since July last year. 430 00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:04,080 Speaker 2: Wow, so you need to give a bill or like 431 00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:07,399 Speaker 2: a bank or what is to say? Can you not 432 00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 2: just ring up the power company and say I live 433 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:12,760 Speaker 2: at this address when you don't? Good point rules like 434 00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:15,359 Speaker 2: well exactly, maybe that's why there's so much fraud house 435 00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:15,960 Speaker 2: weather today. 436 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:18,439 Speaker 6: Wendy, Well, yes, you know it's been a bit like 437 00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:23,080 Speaker 6: a weekend day.

As a kid, they're pretty straightforward, but as 442 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:36,800 Speaker 2: we get on there's that nagging uncertainty, and the question 443 00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:40,399 Speaker 2: becomes can I afford my retirement?

Gavin Gray with US Live this 461 00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:36,400 Speaker 2: morning at quarter to six. Gavin, a British Foreign Office official, 462 00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:37,320 Speaker 2: has resigned. 463 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:43,120 Speaker 11: Indeed our protest. What he says is basically the UK 464 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:47,359 Speaker 11: government potentially being complicit in war crimes. He's talking about 465 00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:48,720 Speaker 11: arms sales to Israel. 466 00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:49,000 Speaker 5: Here. 467 00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:53,440 Speaker 11: Mark Smith, who is believed to be a relatively judia 468 00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:57,120 Speaker 11: member staff based at the British Embassy in Dublin, has 469 00:24:57,200 --> 00:25:01,639 Speaker 11: made his resignation letter very open, sending it to a 470 00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:05,240 Speaker 11: lot of different government officials hundreds in total, Embassy staff, 471 00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:09,720 Speaker 11: special advisor to Foreign Office ministers too, saying that each 472 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:14,000 Speaker 11: day colleagues were witnessing quote clear and unquestionable examples of 473 00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:18,480 Speaker 11: war crimes and breaches of international humanitarian law by Israel 474 00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:22,680 Speaker 11: in Gaza, something incidentally, of course, which Israel completely denies. 475 00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:26,159 Speaker 11: He said, there really is no justification for the UK's 476 00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:29,879 Speaker 11: continued arm sales to Israel. This is a little tricky, 477 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:33,119 Speaker 11: a little embarrassing for the government, which won't like the 478 00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:36,520 Speaker 11: fact that this has been publicized so much. And while hundreds 479 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:39,919 Speaker 11: of officials in the UK and Europe have registered unprecedented 480 00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:44,280 Speaker 11: levels of dissent at policies towards Israel because of Gaza 481 00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:46,960 Speaker 11: and the war there, of course, there have been very 482 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:50,879 Speaker 11: few cases of what you might call principled resignations and 483 00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:55,120 Speaker 11: so therefore this is rare and embarrassing for the British government. Now, 484 00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:58,320 Speaker 11: if you're wondering how much is paid and sent, well, 485 00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:03,160 Speaker 11: the UK granted licenses weapons exports to Israel worth about 486 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:06,240 Speaker 11: a billion New Zealand dollars since two thousand and eight, 487 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:09,440 Speaker 11: the UK government really playing the scale of the supply down, 488 00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:13,639 Speaker 11: saying it's relatively small, at about ninety million New Zealand 489 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:15,200 Speaker 11: dollars back in twenty twenty two. 490 00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:17,960 Speaker 2: All right, Kevin, very quickly, we've got time for this 491 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:21,480 Speaker 2: fishing competition of sorts in Switzerland. 492 00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:24,880 Speaker 11: Yeah, so apparently. I mean, you know, when you see 493 00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:27,600 Speaker 11: the lakes in Switzerland, they are stunningly beausible. But the 494 00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:30,639 Speaker 11: waters conceal a hidden truth, and that is that for 495 00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:33,399 Speaker 11: many years they were used as a dumping ground by 496 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:37,200 Speaker 11: the Swiss authorities and the Swiss military. They were dumping 497 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:40,800 Speaker 11: grounds for old munitions, and that really was because they 498 00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:44,520 Speaker 11: thought they could be safely stored there. Thousands of tons 499 00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:46,760 Speaker 11: of munitions are stored in the different waters of the 500 00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:50,439 Speaker 11: different lakes, some just six meters below the surface, others 501 00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:53,159 Speaker 11: more than two hundred meters below the surface. And now 502 00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:56,320 Speaker 11: the Swiss government's offering money to come up with the 503 00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:58,879 Speaker 11: best solution to get them out. The fear is they 504 00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:01,520 Speaker 11: could explode, but the fear as well they may leach 505 00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:04,760 Speaker 11: out PNT, which is very toxic to the environment. So 506 00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:08,040 Speaker 11: the Swiss Events Department is offering roughly ninety thousand New 507 00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:10,640 Speaker 11: Zealand dollars for the best idea to get it out. 508 00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 11: Ryan get their application for men. 509 00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:17,080 Speaker 2: Gavin. Thank you Gavin Gray UK. You're correspondent with us 510 00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:20,440 Speaker 2: this morning, just gone twelve minutes away from six Bryan Bridge. 511 00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:23,080 Speaker 2: So the government wants police to do an extra two 512 00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:27,720 Speaker 2: hundred thousand breath tests per year and also to start 513 00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:31,480 Speaker 2: drug saliva testing. They want fifty thousand of those done 514 00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:34,960 Speaker 2: every year. It comes after yesterday, well actually at the weekend, 515 00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:41,160 Speaker 2: boy races over seemingly overwhelming police in Hamilton and one 516 00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 2: of them ramming a cop car. Have listen pretty frightening 517 00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 2: and the police officers were standing at look like standing 518 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:00,280 Speaker 2: at the door of their car, had a jump out 519 00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:02,800 Speaker 2: of the way. Very dangerous stuff. Chris Carhill's the Police 520 00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:05,399 Speaker 2: Association president. He is with US Live this morning. Good morning, 521 00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:09,480 Speaker 2: Good morning, Ryan. First, what did you think watching that video? 522 00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:13,200 Speaker 12: Yeah, it's pretty horrific, isn't it? And that's through these 523 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:16,240 Speaker 12: events seem to have made a dramatic change. They were 524 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:20,800 Speaker 12: driving events that were bad and incredibly annoying and at 525 00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:23,360 Speaker 12: times a bit dangerous. Now they seem to be disorder 526 00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:27,720 Speaker 12: offenses where people are there to almost bake the police, 527 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:29,760 Speaker 12: take on the police, and it sees who to do 528 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:32,800 Speaker 12: the craziest thing there and get the biggest video is 529 00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:35,400 Speaker 12: the winner. And it's pretty concerning. I mean, those officers 530 00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:38,000 Speaker 12: could have been seriously hurt. It's very marginal. 531 00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:40,520 Speaker 2: What do you do about that? If they're filming it 532 00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:43,200 Speaker 2: and it's almost becomes a sport in and of itself, 533 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:45,000 Speaker 2: do you just not turn up to these events? 534 00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:48,560 Speaker 12: Well? I think they because they're already doing I mean 535 00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:50,760 Speaker 12: we're having even when out when the police aren't there. 536 00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:55,200 Speaker 12: People have been put at risk people injured as well. Look, 537 00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:57,760 Speaker 12: I think there has to be some penalty for those 538 00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:00,360 Speaker 12: that are actually posting this stuff, and certainly the ones 539 00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:03,760 Speaker 12: that are inciting on those posts. You know, it's telling 540 00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:05,920 Speaker 12: police to people to turn up, telling people to throw 541 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:08,760 Speaker 12: things at the police, these sorts of things. I think 542 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:11,160 Speaker 12: there has to be something that's cracked down on as 543 00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:12,960 Speaker 12: well as not just sitting up at the event. 544 00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:16,400 Speaker 2: Sim In Brown wants police doing more breath tests. They 545 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:18,600 Speaker 2: also want to start that drug saliva test and let's 546 00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:20,520 Speaker 2: start with the breath test for a start extra two 547 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:23,480 Speaker 2: hundred thousand a year up to I think it's three 548 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:27,920 Speaker 2: point four million, sorry, three point three million now up 549 00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:30,920 Speaker 2: from three point one million roadside alcohol breath tests. Is 550 00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:32,440 Speaker 2: that a reasonable ask? 551 00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:35,400 Speaker 12: Well, it's a bigger ask. I mean, you know, we 552 00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:38,240 Speaker 12: currently have a target of around that three million, but 553 00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:41,040 Speaker 12: I think police have only men has hit it twice 554 00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:43,160 Speaker 12: in the last ten years. And that just gives you 555 00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:45,720 Speaker 12: an idea how the police are. There's a lot of 556 00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:48,760 Speaker 12: other work going on out there, and you know something 557 00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:51,400 Speaker 12: you'll have to give. I think there again, pat stuff, 558 00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:54,400 Speaker 12: you are police from the beat, You've got the retail crime, 559 00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:56,240 Speaker 12: and we still have them down with the issue of 560 00:29:57,000 --> 00:30:00,120 Speaker 12: family harm and mental health. So let's go to be 561 00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:02,680 Speaker 12: a big stretch for police to be able to achieve this, and. 562 00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:05,440 Speaker 2: They're doing one and the other with the drug testing. 563 00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:08,560 Speaker 2: How long? What is the process for the drug testing? 564 00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:10,560 Speaker 2: Is that as easy as a breath test? 565 00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:14,760 Speaker 12: Now that's not I mean at this the proposals you'll 566 00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:20,280 Speaker 12: do two mouth swabs, so and then there's variations of 567 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 12: that depending on what the results are and what the 568 00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:25,160 Speaker 12: person lecks to do. But I would have thought that's 569 00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:28,640 Speaker 12: going to take a minimum sort of fifteen minutes, maybe longer. 570 00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:32,160 Speaker 12: And so you work out fifty thousand, that's about twelve 571 00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:35,480 Speaker 12: and a half thousand officer as a year. So that's 572 00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:38,920 Speaker 12: an incredibly increase. And we're at the police as well, 573 00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:41,000 Speaker 12: so it's going to be a real challenge. And I 574 00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:43,160 Speaker 12: think the question that I'll be asking the minister at 575 00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:45,280 Speaker 12: plice what's going to give Where do you want them 576 00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:48,040 Speaker 12: to stop doing? Because you can't just keep adding more on? 577 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:50,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, Chris, thanks so much for your time. Chris, 578 00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:53,320 Speaker 2: can't hooldy police Assacia. Oh actually, just before you go, Chris, 579 00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:55,760 Speaker 2: we've had a text come in from someone who works 580 00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:58,880 Speaker 2: at Police saying that there's some redundancies apparently going to 581 00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:02,600 Speaker 2: be announced today or tomorrow. Are you aware of thotse Yeah. 582 00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:06,200 Speaker 12: There will be a big announcement I think probably tomorrow's 583 00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:09,760 Speaker 12: staff for getting effects in the next twenty four hours 584 00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:11,560 Speaker 12: sort of thing. So I don't want to say two much, 585 00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:14,200 Speaker 12: but here there's certainly a proposal that we're going to 586 00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:17,000 Speaker 12: get all the details of in the next couple of days, 587 00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:21,280 Speaker 12: which we'll be watching closely. They will be police employees 588 00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:24,560 Speaker 12: or non sworn staff, not sworn police officers, but a 589 00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:27,840 Speaker 12: lot of those staff are what actually enabled police officers 590 00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:29,480 Speaker 12: to go out and do their job every day, so 591 00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:31,400 Speaker 12: we'll be watching that very closely. 592 00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:35,560 Speaker 2: Any idea of numbers at the stage, Chris, Look, the. 593 00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:37,600 Speaker 12: Figure that was bended around at the start was in 594 00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:39,800 Speaker 12: their one hundred and seventy five range.
