1 00:00:01,480 --> 00:00:03,920 Speaker 1: The only drive show you can try the truck to 2 00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:07,000 Speaker 1: ask the questions, you get the answers, find a fag 3 00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:07,840 Speaker 1: sack and. 4 00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:09,480 Speaker 2: Give the analysis. 5 00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:13,360 Speaker 1: Heather Duplicy Ellen Drive with One New Zealand and the 6 00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:15,640 Speaker 1: power of satellite mobile news dogs. 7 00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:17,640 Speaker 2: That'd be afternoon. 8 00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:20,200 Speaker 3: Welcome to the show. Coming up today, organized crime is 9 00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:22,840 Speaker 3: apparently one of our biggest national security threats. We're going 10 00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:24,840 Speaker 3: to talk to the chair of the Task Force on 11 00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:27,880 Speaker 3: the final report that came out today. Act looks like 12 00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:30,360 Speaker 3: it might kill the Surcharge band. We will explain and 13 00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:34,000 Speaker 3: construction expert John Tooki on how to rebuild Gaza. 14 00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:35,520 Speaker 2: Hev Duplessy Ellen. 15 00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:36,360 Speaker 4: So it looks like the. 16 00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:38,519 Speaker 3: Days of Simon Dllo reading us the evening News and 17 00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:40,919 Speaker 3: numbered Now this is not a total surprise. This has 18 00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:43,239 Speaker 3: been rumored for a little while. It's even actually been 19 00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:46,879 Speaker 3: reported on as speculation. But now well placed sources have 20 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:49,680 Speaker 3: told The Herald that he is preparing to quit next year. 21 00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:52,040 Speaker 3: Simon Dallo will actually be quite a bit of a 22 00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:54,279 Speaker 3: loss for TV and Z because he is like one 23 00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:56,160 Speaker 3: of those pieces of equipment that is so good at 24 00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:58,000 Speaker 3: doing its job that you don't even really notice it. 25 00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:00,240 Speaker 3: It's like a Coggner watch. You never think about it 26 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:02,760 Speaker 3: because it just keeps on doing its job perfectly. That 27 00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:06,800 Speaker 3: Simon Dallo so polished he's almost invisible, which is actually 28 00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:09,360 Speaker 3: deliberate from him because he's old school. He sees himself 29 00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:13,080 Speaker 3: as the newsreader, not the news. I don't know how 30 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:15,600 Speaker 3: sad people are going to be about his departure if 31 00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:17,760 Speaker 3: it does actually happen next year. I don't know that 32 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:21,760 Speaker 3: Simon's ever won our hearts like Judy Bailey did or 33 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:25,760 Speaker 3: Jim Hickey did, maybe because he's more perfection than he 34 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:28,160 Speaker 3: is warmth, but also maybe because the country just doesn't 35 00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 3: gather around the TV at six o'clock in the evening 36 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:33,080 Speaker 3: like we used to forty years ago. But TV and 37 00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:35,120 Speaker 3: ZED will miss him because he is the best in 38 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:37,240 Speaker 3: the country at what he does. Plus, of course they 39 00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:40,280 Speaker 3: now have the unenviable task of trying to replace him. 40 00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:42,200 Speaker 3: I mean, the obvious thing that they should do, or 41 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:45,280 Speaker 3: could do, is give the job to Melissa Stokes, because 42 00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:47,440 Speaker 3: she's already doing it at the weekends, so it wouldn't 43 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:49,360 Speaker 3: be that much of a shakeup to a TV and 44 00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 3: Z audience that is already used to see Melissa's face. 45 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 3: The braver thing to do would be to poach Samantha 46 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:58,600 Speaker 3: Hayes from TV three because that thing's dying, isn't it, 47 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:02,040 Speaker 3: But also more importantly, because Samantha Hayes is a superstar 48 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:04,800 Speaker 3: and if you want to win hearts again, that is 49 00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 3: how you win them again. But then again, I guess 50 00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 3: we all remember how it went last time TV and 51 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 3: Z chose a TV three are over one of their 52 00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:13,280 Speaker 3: own when they poached John Hawksby came to regret that 53 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:16,600 Speaker 3: pretty quickly. Back to Simon, though there is no scandal here. 54 00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:19,160 Speaker 3: He just reportedly wants to spend more time traveling and 55 00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:22,000 Speaker 3: seeing his kids. And who can blame him because next year, 56 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 3: can you believe it will be twenty years of him 57 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:27,880 Speaker 3: doing that job, which finnally is almost as exactly as 58 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:28,720 Speaker 3: long as Judy. 59 00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 2: Bailey ever dup c Ellen. 60 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,840 Speaker 3: The text number Standard text fees apply now. New Zealand 61 00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:39,640 Speaker 3: First leader Winston Peters has doubled down on his criticism 62 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:42,680 Speaker 3: of Fonterra's plans to sell its consumer brands. He's threatened 63 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 3: in an open letter that Frontira may face regulations if 64 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:49,080 Speaker 3: Mainland and Anchor are sold to the French company Lactalise. 65 00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:50,960 Speaker 3: In Winston's with US now High Winston. 66 00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 5: Hello, what regulations, Well, they have over many, many years 67 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:02,280 Speaker 5: and last in twenty twenty one. Again a monopoly position 68 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:07,960 Speaker 5: because politicians saw in the national interest. And when that 69 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 5: position is then used to sell a product, the base 70 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 5: product with no guarantee of longevity that is only three 71 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 5: years for the brands that we have built it since 72 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:25,120 Speaker 5: the eighteen eighties, then it's a matter of serious concern. 73 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:26,240 Speaker 5: The farmers need to know that. 74 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:28,800 Speaker 3: Yet now apparently i'm told the three years is not 75 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:31,639 Speaker 3: strictly accurate. It's three years that they have to take 76 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,519 Speaker 3: the milk for and then after that it's another thirty 77 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 3: six months notice period if they want to stop. So 78 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 3: it actually works out it six. 79 00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 5: Years automatically venus until it's terminated as executive flim flam. 80 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 5: After three years they can cancel. 81 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, but then they have to give three years notice. 82 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 3: So it really is six years, isn't it. 83 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 5: Well, once you're canceling, guess what that signals to the 84 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:57,840 Speaker 5: farming community. Well, your long term advantage is being lost dramatically. 85 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:01,840 Speaker 5: You're now a wholesaler, You're not an added value operation. 86 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 3: Now, what are the regulations that you're threatening. 87 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,440 Speaker 5: Well, I'm just saying that they did not get there 88 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 5: without a coming to Parliament for this privileged position. Then 89 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:14,720 Speaker 5: to sell it as though it's some sort of catalyst 90 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 5: asset against the national interest, against added value to the 91 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:22,160 Speaker 5: wealth of this country and to the employment of thousands 92 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 5: and thousands of people in this country is simply open 93 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 5: to questions. 94 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 3: Have you actually thought about what the regulations are or 95 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:30,840 Speaker 3: are you just floating the idea that there may be 96 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 3: some regulations. 97 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:37,280 Speaker 5: It's not complicated. Let me tell this is sound. 98 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:39,440 Speaker 3: You can't answer the question. 99 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, of course I can answer the question. Go on, well, 100 00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 5: I don't know why. Why haven't you Peel been asking 101 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:49,040 Speaker 5: them since they made that. 102 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 3: This is not my first rodeo. I know what you're 103 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:54,440 Speaker 3: up to. You haven't thought about the regulations have yet? 104 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:55,600 Speaker 5: Yes? 105 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:55,919 Speaker 6: I have. 106 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,920 Speaker 5: I'm saying we're gonna We're gonna remove your privileged position 107 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:03,680 Speaker 5: so that if a New Zealand the wholesale I wished 108 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:06,880 Speaker 5: to go into added value supply, they'll have access to 109 00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 5: the milk that they are currently denied. 110 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,840 Speaker 3: All right now, isn't really proplicated. No, No, thank you 111 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:14,480 Speaker 3: for answering the question. I should say thank you, thank 112 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 3: you for answering the question. I do appreciate it isn't 113 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:18,799 Speaker 3: really that big a deal though. With the milk supply, 114 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:20,360 Speaker 3: I mean we're talking about what is it like seven 115 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 3: and a half percent of the country's milk that lack 116 00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:23,159 Speaker 3: to lise ends up taking. 117 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:28,520 Speaker 5: Oh again again, that's not where we're really talking about. 118 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 5: We're talking high end, top end. And if you go 119 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:37,520 Speaker 5: to Scandinavia, you go to Switzerland, if you go to France, 120 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,400 Speaker 5: if you go to countries that know how to add value, 121 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 5: they have and many of those countries not even got 122 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:45,359 Speaker 5: the raw product, but they're getting the base product and 123 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:48,040 Speaker 5: adding value to it massively, and that's why they are 124 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 5: doing so better than us. 125 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 3: But Fonterra would argue that they are doing value add 126 00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:55,680 Speaker 3: with all the other weird stuff that they do, like 127 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 3: the protein the protein and the sports drinks and all 128 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:00,360 Speaker 3: that stuff that's really value. 129 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 5: Oh, with the greatest respect to Fonterra. Look, they went 130 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:07,240 Speaker 5: through the being made disaster. That was not eight eighty 131 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:10,559 Speaker 5: million dollar loss, The opportunity cost was one point four billion. 132 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:13,320 Speaker 5: They went both and the very same people coming on 133 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:16,360 Speaker 5: radio and TV, not from Terra, but these people being 134 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:18,920 Speaker 5: dragged out now were the very people who were heading 135 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 5: the organization when that happened. This is serious stuff. 136 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:24,599 Speaker 3: Okay. Now, David Seymour has a good point, though, doesn't he. 137 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:27,200 Speaker 3: It is actually for the farmers to choose, not for politicians. 138 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 5: There's exactly right for farmers to choose, knowing all the facts. Yeah, 139 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:33,800 Speaker 5: and I'm talking about the future young farmer, the son 140 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:35,479 Speaker 5: and daughter of there now on their grand children. 141 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:38,839 Speaker 3: Yeah, but not you're not making it for the farmers 142 00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 3: to choose. If you start threatening regulation, you're really making it. 143 00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 3: You're inserting yourself here. 144 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 5: I'm not inserting myself. But it was they that came 145 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 5: to us and asked us for protection and for privileged 146 00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:53,080 Speaker 5: position and monopoly. Do you not realize I've been around 147 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 5: for a long time. I've seen this Fonterra was established 148 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 5: on that basis in the first place. 149 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, now listen, can I just ask you about the fairies? 150 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:01,680 Speaker 3: Are you worried all about this lot building? The fairies 151 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,159 Speaker 3: over in China and what they're up to the potential threat? 152 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 5: Oh? Look, one mainstream media Genosa sanadna I said, have 153 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 5: you've flown eddies in lately? 154 00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:11,080 Speaker 7: Well? 155 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 5: They both they buy from Boeing. Boeing makes military aircrafts 156 00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:14,840 Speaker 5: as well. 157 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, but Boeing's on our side, isn't it. The Americans 158 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 3: are on our side. If we're going to war, We're 159 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:21,360 Speaker 3: not going to war with the Chinese. It's like we're 160 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 3: fighting the Chinese. 161 00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 5: Every item of this matter will be carefully scrutinized by 162 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 5: capable people for the first time in a long long 163 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 5: time when the deal is done. The Chinese know that. 164 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 3: Do you really think, Winston, that we have the capability 165 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 3: if they put vulnerabilities in the fairies? I'm not saying 166 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 3: that they are, but if they did, do you really 167 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 3: reckon we can find it? 168 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 5: Of course we can. 169 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:48,960 Speaker 3: How can we find it? Where we have guys from 170 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 3: the defense forces who hand their notes into the opshop 171 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 3: in the art Valley. 172 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,840 Speaker 5: Well, that was a very very low grade. A woman 173 00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 5: who went home with her notes. She was only a 174 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:02,880 Speaker 5: note and left it at home. This is not a 175 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 5: high operative inside the Defense Force. And more importantly, we're 176 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:12,200 Speaker 5: not the third largest rocket launcher in the world at 177 00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 5: this point in time because we got there by accident. 178 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:16,120 Speaker 5: Have some confidence in your people and it will hire 179 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:18,480 Speaker 5: the right people. The difference is when this deal is over, 180 00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:21,960 Speaker 5: we will have saved you and your listeners over two 181 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:22,760 Speaker 5: billion dollars. 182 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:25,680 Speaker 3: Please to hear at Winston. I'm thrilled. Actually, maybe I 183 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 3: should have more confidence. I appreciate your time. That's Winston, 184 00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 3: Peter's New Zealand first Party leader. Listen, just on the death. 185 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:33,800 Speaker 3: I don't know if you've been following this, but remember 186 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:36,760 Speaker 3: the guy from Mango, the guy who found founded the 187 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:40,360 Speaker 3: Mango Clothing Empire, went out for a walk in Spain 188 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:43,080 Speaker 3: December last year and then fell to his death. The 189 00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 3: cops over in Spain are now treating that not as 190 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:47,760 Speaker 3: an accident but as a murder. And the key suspect 191 00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:50,559 Speaker 3: here is his son, And they say that because his son, Jonathan, 192 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:53,200 Speaker 3: hasn't got a story straight. So there's inconsistencies, there are 193 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:56,440 Speaker 3: gray areas, events that don't match up. So that is 194 00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:57,439 Speaker 3: quite the twist, isn't it. 195 00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:02,000 Speaker 1: Four sixteen It's the Dup s Allen Drive Full Show 196 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:05,560 Speaker 1: podcast on iHeartRadio powered by News Talk ZBI. 197 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:06,640 Speaker 4: Yeah. 198 00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:06,760 Speaker 8: There. 199 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,040 Speaker 3: I'm a Fonterra supplier and I'm with Winston. I went 200 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 3: to a shareholders meeting and I raised these points and 201 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 3: basically we were told that we didn't know what we 202 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:14,640 Speaker 3: were talking. I didn't know what I was talking about 203 00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:17,120 Speaker 3: a two dollars sugar fix is a very short, short 204 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 3: sighted bribe. That's from Mark nineteen past four. 205 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 1: Good sport with tab multis fast, easy and more codes 206 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 1: are eighteen bit responsible. 207 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:28,320 Speaker 3: There some pine weekend Sport hosters with us a Piney Hello, Heather, 208 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 3: like I says it nine thirty that the game is tonight. 209 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:33,280 Speaker 9: Nine thirty it is, yes, as you're in time. 210 00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:33,679 Speaker 10: Yes. 211 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:35,840 Speaker 3: And do you think that they're going to be able 212 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 3: to rise above everything that's going on and just do 213 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:38,840 Speaker 3: a good game? 214 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:39,600 Speaker 9: Well, I hope. 215 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 10: So I get the feeling that these players, and we're 216 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 10: talking the Silver Ferns here of course against Australia, will 217 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 10: want to get out on the court. You know, they'll 218 00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 10: want to sort of leave all of the off field 219 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:51,160 Speaker 10: drama off the court and just get out there and 220 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 10: play a game and netball. And there were some quite 221 00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 10: telling comments during the week when the Silver Ferns did 222 00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:58,720 Speaker 10: their media sessions and they talked about how you don't 223 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:01,880 Speaker 10: necessarily have to be best buddies with those in the team, 224 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:03,199 Speaker 10: and I guess it's the same in a workplace. So 225 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:05,600 Speaker 10: kind I don't have any friends here, but I still 226 00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 10: turn up every day and you know, try and do 227 00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:09,319 Speaker 10: my best. And I guess that's what they'll do out 228 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:12,679 Speaker 10: on the court tonight. I'll get out there and put 229 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:15,520 Speaker 10: the off court stuff to one side and try and retain. 230 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, we've got it. 231 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:19,440 Speaker 9: You forget We've got the Constellation Cup. 232 00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:23,840 Speaker 3: Yes we do. Okay, yes, okay. So something has changed 233 00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 3: since the tiny, tiny jamison, isn't it? And that is 234 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 3: that the players now seem to have some sort of 235 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:31,120 Speaker 3: a split in the squad because of Grace and we 236 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 3: Ket standing up and saying that she wanted Nolan back 237 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:36,560 Speaker 3: and the rest of the players seem upset about it. 238 00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 3: Is impossible that that kind of tension between the players 239 00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:40,559 Speaker 3: is detrimental. 240 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:44,560 Speaker 10: Yep, absolutely, you're right, absolutely, And she said we want 241 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 10: you back, and she's walked that back in the time 242 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 10: since and said I should have chosen my words more carefully. 243 00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:51,560 Speaker 10: I wasn't speaking for the group where it felt like 244 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:52,080 Speaker 10: she was. 245 00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:53,760 Speaker 9: And I mean she. 246 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 3: Did all to say she doesn't regress it though, no. 247 00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 10: Of course, And why would she got on her for that, 248 00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 10: because imagine if she said I didn't mean it, you know, 249 00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:02,600 Speaker 10: she does mean that she does want to back, and 250 00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:04,680 Speaker 10: she's part of a group of players who do, But 251 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 10: I think we all know there's a group of players 252 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:09,959 Speaker 10: in there who necessary who don't necessarily agree. So look, 253 00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:13,880 Speaker 10: it could be detrimental. I hope that a high performing 254 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 10: sports team can just be a high performing sports team 255 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:18,360 Speaker 10: when the whistle goes and put that to one side. 256 00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:20,560 Speaker 10: But it's hardly been ideal, has it? 257 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:20,960 Speaker 4: No? 258 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 3: Really like quite far from piney. Now, did we already 259 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:26,520 Speaker 3: know that we're not going to have the Rugby Championship 260 00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 3: next year? 261 00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:30,000 Speaker 10: Yeah, we knew that because the South African Tour is 262 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:32,320 Speaker 10: going to cut right across that time period, that August 263 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:35,840 Speaker 10: September time period. So yesterday we got the news through 264 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:38,920 Speaker 10: about the next five years of Sanzar competitions and that 265 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:42,960 Speaker 10: had the Rugby Championship absent in twenty twenty six because 266 00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 10: the All Blacks are touring South Africa. Look, I think 267 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:48,680 Speaker 10: it's probably just collateral damage. Really, I think the tours 268 00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 10: a really good idea. We've been wanting tours for a while. 269 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 10: Eight games over there, including four Test matches, the fourth 270 00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 10: ones interesting, Heather, it's at a neutral location. We don't 271 00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 10: know where the fourth Test is going to be yet. 272 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:04,240 Speaker 10: I've her suggestion to Twickenham of Barcelona, of Dubai could 273 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 10: be anywhere that fourth Test, but the tur itself is 274 00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:08,600 Speaker 10: South Africa, but of a throwback to the old day, 275 00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:09,600 Speaker 10: so I like the idea. 276 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 3: Piney, good to talk to you. Thank you mate, Jason 277 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:13,840 Speaker 3: Pine Weekend Sport hosts.

Do you remember Ali Pugh? 286 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:40,560 Speaker 3: Ali still around, isn't she? I think she reports out 287 00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:42,080 Speaker 3: of christ Ju so I think there's are problem. It's 288 00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:45,839 Speaker 3: a geographical problem. But yeah, she's she's eye Candy. She's 289 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:49,440 Speaker 3: very very good eye candy. Isn't she Purple Wetzel? Now 290 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 3: that I can get on board with also in Auclands, 291 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:55,199 Speaker 3: so that's good. Nadine Huggins last from the past. We 292 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:58,319 Speaker 3: did the fantasy football on it today in the newsroom, 293 00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:00,280 Speaker 3: we're trying to figure out who would put an I mean, 294 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 3: obviously it be a temptation to do Jack, wouldn't it. 295 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,320 Speaker 3: But then the thing is, Jack still looks like he's twelve, 296 00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 3: like bless that boy is going to be. He's gonna 297 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:10,560 Speaker 3: be seventy years old with the face of a forty 298 00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:14,200 Speaker 3: year old like he is. He has got the DNA 299 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:17,480 Speaker 3: of a Peter Pan. But it does count against him 300 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:19,760 Speaker 3: for hosting the evening news bulletin, but also be a 301 00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 3: waste of his skills, right because he's a he's an interviewer, 302 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:24,360 Speaker 3: so he can't really be wasting all that interviewing skill 303 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:27,360 Speaker 3: just reading the news. Having said that, you could argue 304 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 3: the same as Simon Dallo, the man's a lawyer. Who 305 00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 3: else did we come up with? Laura sam Hayes? Did 306 00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 3: I mention, sir, I need a commission. If they choose 307 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:40,320 Speaker 3: sam Hayes, sam Hayes has to give me thirty percent 308 00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 3: of her pay packet just for the fact that I 309 00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:45,000 Speaker 3: am going to push this so hard anyway. Listen four 310 00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:49,080 Speaker 3: to twenty five. Brilliant move. Brilliant move from Act today 311 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 3: looks like they've basically killed Scott Simpson's plan. To ban 312 00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:54,720 Speaker 3: the credit card surcharges. So what they've done is so 313 00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:58,360 Speaker 3: Scott Simpson is like hell bent on doing the surcharge band, 314 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 3: which is, if you've been following it, the stupidest idea 315 00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:04,080 Speaker 3: because obviously it's just going to push up prices everywhere 316 00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:05,720 Speaker 3: and everybody's going to have to pay for this instead 317 00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:08,080 Speaker 3: of the people using their credit cards anyway, So Actor 318 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:10,960 Speaker 3: has written to Scott Simpson with it, and they've proposed 319 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:13,040 Speaker 3: a change, which is, yep, Scott, you can have your 320 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:15,440 Speaker 3: band go ahead with a ban, but you can only 321 00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:19,960 Speaker 3: impose a ban on retailers who offer no alternative to 322 00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,520 Speaker 3: tapping the credit card. Right, So if they let us 323 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:25,160 Speaker 3: pay with credit card but also with f POSS or 324 00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 3: with cash, or with swiping a card, or with inserting 325 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,200 Speaker 3: a credit card, then they are not under the band, 326 00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:32,960 Speaker 3: so they could keep charging the surcharge on the credit card. Now, 327 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:36,680 Speaker 3: name me a retailer out there who doesn't allow you 328 00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:40,240 Speaker 3: to pay with cash, pay with f POSS, insert your 329 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 3: credit card if you want to, Like, it's literally everyone, right, 330 00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 3: so he'll be able to go, yeah, we're going ahead 331 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 3: with the band, but the ban will not affect anyone, 332 00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:48,400 Speaker 3: which is brilliant because, as I say, the surcharge ban 333 00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:50,000 Speaker 3: is a stupid idea. So we're gonna have a chat 334 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:54,680 Speaker 3: to Palje Palmer of Act after five o'clock. Just got 335 00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:57,080 Speaker 3: lots and lots of final counts coming in today. This 336 00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 3: is on the local body elections, so I'm just going 337 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:01,320 Speaker 3: to run you through them as we basically get a 338 00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:05,040 Speaker 3: chance to Westland. Jackie Grant will now not become, as 339 00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:08,440 Speaker 3: she says, the oldest Trainny mayor in the world. She 340 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:11,360 Speaker 3: has lost the Westland mayoral election. After all, I think 341 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 3: the incumbent retains it.

We are standing by for it. 355 00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:09,800 Speaker 3: Though here the read the credit card surcharge ban. I 356 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:12,240 Speaker 3: think there should be a ban, but then the merchant 357 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 3: can offer a discount for paying by any other methods 358 00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:18,520 Speaker 3: instead of using the credit So okay, so basically just 359 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 3: a ban, So basically the same. So it's a surcharge still, 360 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:24,000 Speaker 3: isn't it? Because you just build Yeah, okay, I see 361 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:26,000 Speaker 3: what you're doing. But no, it's even more complicated than 362 00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:28,640 Speaker 3: acts thing. An acts thing is already complicated. Here the 363 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:31,280 Speaker 3: re Winston on Fonterra. What on earth makes Winston thinks 364 00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 3: that he thinks that he's qualified to tell farmers what 365 00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:36,200 Speaker 3: to do with their own businesses? Now, okay, listen, I 366 00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 3: get the feeling even Fonterra is slightly perplexed by what 367 00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:44,040 Speaker 3: is going on here because the voting is underway, right, 368 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:47,320 Speaker 3: and the deal is amazing, and so I think everybody's 369 00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 3: looking at this, going Winston, what are you up to? 370 00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:52,080 Speaker 3: This is not really about Fonterra, guys. And if you're 371 00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:54,800 Speaker 3: if you're a Fonterra farmer and you think, yeah, go Winston, 372 00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:58,520 Speaker 3: you need to get real what Winston is doing as 373 00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 3: he is getting ready for the election. He's not going 374 00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 3: to change the outcome of this vote. He already knows that. 375 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:05,760 Speaker 3: But he wants to go for the farmer vote, and 376 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:07,280 Speaker 3: he knows that there's a whole bunch of farmers in there. 377 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:09,399 Speaker 3: He'll be grumpy about this and that whole bunch of 378 00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:11,439 Speaker 3: people out there who are not farmers who believe in, 379 00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:13,679 Speaker 3: you know, not selling off your assets and stuff. So 380 00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:15,919 Speaker 3: he is getting ready for the Election's nothing. It's actually 381 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:18,159 Speaker 3: really got nothing to do with changing the outcome for 382 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:20,280 Speaker 3: Fonterra anyway. Twenty three away from five. 383 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:23,879 Speaker 2: It's the world wires on youth talks. They'd be drive. 384 00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:26,400 Speaker 3: So Donald Trump has had a two and a half 385 00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:29,080 Speaker 3: hour chat with Lad over the phone. He's also set 386 00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:33,080 Speaker 3: to meet with Ukrainian President Zelenski in person tonight. Trump 387 00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:34,840 Speaker 3: he says, the call with Lad went really well. 388 00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:40,679 Speaker 11: I'll be meeting with President Putin and we'll make a determination.

And we have a problem. They don't 391 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:51,240 Speaker 11: get along too well those two, and it's sometimes tough 392 00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:51,840 Speaker 11: to have meeting. 393 00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:55,080 Speaker 3: One of Trump's former mates. John Bolton has been indicted 394 00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 3: on federal criminal charges. FBI agents have searched his home 395 00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:01,920 Speaker 3: to investigate handling of classify information. A former assistant Attorney 396 00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 3: General says the allegations are quite serious. 397 00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:06,879 Speaker 12: He knows the significance of classified information, he knows the 398 00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:10,119 Speaker 12: critical importance of keeping it secret, and yet despite all 399 00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:12,720 Speaker 12: of that knowledge and all of his experience, he did 400 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:16,359 Speaker 12: apparently allegedly send classified information to people who are not 401 00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:17,399 Speaker 12: authorized to receive it. 402 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:21,720 Speaker 3: And finally, if you're a chet GPT user, here's something 403 00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:25,119 Speaker 3: you could try but possibly don't. You could ask it 404 00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 3: for the lot of numbers. So a woman in Michigan 405 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:29,040 Speaker 3: has won more than one hundred and seventy thousand New 406 00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:31,440 Speaker 3: Zealand dollars after she got the AI program to pick 407 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:33,920 Speaker 3: her numbers for her in the state's lottery draw. It 408 00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:37,400 Speaker 3: was not anything.

And he said the Putin congratulated him on 473 00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:18,440 Speaker 6: the peace in the Middle East, and the Trump thinks 474 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:23,880 Speaker 6: that maybe by quote solving that this is bringing both sides, 475 00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:26,959 Speaker 6: both sides being Ukraine and Russia a little bit closer 476 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:28,960 Speaker 6: together and maybe he can get something done with this. 477 00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:31,600 Speaker 3: Is it true that he wants to build himself a 478 00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:33,159 Speaker 3: monument called the Act to Trump? 479 00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:39,920 Speaker 6: Yes, yes it is, Yes, it is.

He had a big White House 483 00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:51,879 Speaker 6: dinner and he unveiled this this this monumental model of it, 484 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:53,879 Speaker 6: a mock up of it in the in the ballroom, 485 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:56,240 Speaker 6: and he said there were three versions of this archist, small, medium, 486 00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:59,040 Speaker 6: and large. I guess you probably know which one. Trump 487 00:21:59,040 --> 00:21:59,960 Speaker 6: says he likes the best. 488 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:03,840 Speaker 3: Now I can see what does it look like. 489 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:09,200 Speaker 6: It looks exactly like the one in Paris now, except 490 00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:09,639 Speaker 6: it's going to. 491 00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 3: Be rude to you, Dan, but Washington is basically a 492 00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 3: ripoff of like all It's just it's a ripoff of 493 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 3: ancient Rome and Greece and stuff that. All that stuff, right, 494 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:22,600 Speaker 3: So it would fit in perfectly, wouldn't it. 495 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:26,520 Speaker 6: You know what Marlon Brando said on acting. He says, 496 00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:29,960 Speaker 6: you steal from the best and you make it your own. Yeah, 497 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 6: And I think that's what Trump is doing.

And so they did it 514 00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:09,560 Speaker 3: again this morning at nine and they've voted to send 515 00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:12,000 Speaker 3: a letter to the Department of Internal Affairs asking the 516 00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:15,159 Speaker 3: Department Internal Affairs to investigate what happened at the election 517 00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:18,080 Speaker 3: in Kuipitter But what is a leg to have happened 518 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:21,680 Speaker 3: that needed that necessitated this, We do not know. It's 519 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:24,359 Speaker 3: all kind of weird and we think I think they 520 00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:26,480 Speaker 3: are deliberately keeping it secret. It's very hard to figure 521 00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:29,639 Speaker 3: it out. Anyway. They wanted to stop the publication of 522 00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:32,200 Speaker 3: the results that were supposed to happen sometime after four o'clock. 523 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:34,720 Speaker 3: The Department of Internal Affairs has told us that's absolutely 524 00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:36,080 Speaker 3: not going to happen. The results are going to come 525 00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:38,480 Speaker 3: out today. The Department of Internal Affairs has also told 526 00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:40,840 Speaker 3: us they've got nothing to do with us, like they 527 00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:43,240 Speaker 3: don't have the power. I mean, it's like the Kipata 528 00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:46,760 Speaker 3: District Council should maybe have written to a tank juice 529 00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:49,000 Speaker 3: and asked them to do something about him, because that's 530 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:52,600 Speaker 3: about the level of power that the Department of Internal 531 00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:56,560 Speaker 3: Affairs appears to have anyway. Craig Jepson, who is the 532 00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:59,040 Speaker 3: outgoing mayor, who is the one who held the meeting 533 00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:01,159 Speaker 3: and has the concerns, going to be with us at 534 00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:03,000 Speaker 3: quarter past five. So we're going to try to get 535 00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:04,800 Speaker 3: to the bottom of what is going on here, because 536 00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:06,919 Speaker 3: something is going on, just don't know what it is. 537 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:09,120 Speaker 3: Barrisopa's next seventeen. 538 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:12,280 Speaker 2: Away Politics with Centrics. Credit check your customers and get 539 00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:13,120 Speaker 2: payments certainty. 540 00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:16,000 Speaker 3: If to answer your question earlier, it's Wilson's Parking. They 541 00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:18,000 Speaker 3: only allow you to use your credit card to pay. 542 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:20,320 Speaker 3: It's incredibly annoying, Robin, thank you for that. As I said, 543 00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 3: actor is going to be with us I just after 544 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:24,440 Speaker 3: five o'clock on the Searcharge Band fourteen away from five. 545 00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:27,640 Speaker 3: Barry Sober, Senior political correspondent, Hi Barry Good afternoon, Heather, 546 00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:30,000 Speaker 3: So do you think it sounds to me very much 547 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:32,760 Speaker 3: like the government is getting ready to make a compulsory 548 00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:34,280 Speaker 3: arbitration no more health strikes. 549 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:38,320 Speaker 11: Well, yeah, that's the problem, isn't it. I think the 550 00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:40,960 Speaker 11: Golden Boy turned into something with brass boy when he 551 00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:49,160 Speaker 11: turned up at the Experienced Doctors meeting this week, really 552 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:51,719 Speaker 11: walking into the lions Den. I guess you'd have to say, 553 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:54,480 Speaker 11: but you know, he gave as good as he got, 554 00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:58,560 Speaker 11: and even though he was booed, he said, well, you know, 555 00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 11: we may have to think of an allo native and 556 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:04,600 Speaker 11: the only alternative really is not just for the medical profession, 557 00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:08,119 Speaker 11: but for others to go to compulsory arbitration. 558 00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:10,800 Speaker 3: He seemed to suggest that it would just be for 559 00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:12,440 Speaker 3: health certainly from he. 560 00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:15,320 Speaker 11: Did, Yes, he did. But I think it's a wider 561 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:20,520 Speaker 11: issue than that. And for many, many decades they did 562 00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:25,520 Speaker 11: have compulsory arbitrations. The arbitration Court issues were referred there 563 00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:30,360 Speaker 11: when negotiations broke down after a lot of trying, and 564 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:37,320 Speaker 11: that was essentially replaced by in seventy three, at compulsory 565 00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:44,800 Speaker 11: arbitration was replaced, but then the Employment Contracts Act introduced 566 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:49,000 Speaker 11: by Jim Boulger that when that came and that changed 567 00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:53,280 Speaker 11: the issue again. So yeah, compulsory arbitration is a possibility, 568 00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:55,840 Speaker 11: and I think maybe the government will look at that 569 00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:59,640 Speaker 11: more widely. And it's only a national government you won't 570 00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:03,320 Speaker 11: be that comes up against this thing. And the point 571 00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:06,359 Speaker 11: that Brown makes is that when you look at the 572 00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:11,760 Speaker 11: health system, it's a never ending hole for money that 573 00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:14,440 Speaker 11: you never have enough money for it. Sixteen and a 574 00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:19,000 Speaker 11: half billion additional money over the three first or three 575 00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:23,200 Speaker 11: budgets of this government. You can never satisfy a health 576 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:26,800 Speaker 11: because it always soaks up the money. 577 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:30,000 Speaker 3: But worse than that is that these doctors will offered 578 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:32,920 Speaker 3: the opportunity to go to arbitration and settle the thing, 579 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:37,199 Speaker 3: and they declined and instead struck. So that shows that 580 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:39,639 Speaker 3: that I mean that you have to call into question 581 00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:42,000 Speaker 3: their motivations here, right. Are they actually trying to settle 582 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:43,840 Speaker 3: the thing and get a decent pay rise or they 583 00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:45,280 Speaker 3: just trying to make a point by striking. 584 00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:47,199 Speaker 11: But why would they want to make a point and 585 00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:48,160 Speaker 11: disadvantage their. 586 00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:51,359 Speaker 3: Own because I can only think that they want more 587 00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:53,960 Speaker 3: than that what they think the arbitration would get them. 588 00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:57,840 Speaker 3: They are trying to leverage a better deal than is reasonable. 589 00:26:57,480 --> 00:27:00,560 Speaker 11: Brown says five percent time for sixteen months seem to 590 00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:02,400 Speaker 11: be a reasonable sort of a deal. I mean, these 591 00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:06,440 Speaker 11: people are not underpaid, but they do work and having 592 00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:09,400 Speaker 11: been a recipient of their work in the hospitals, they 593 00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:12,439 Speaker 11: work very, very hard and there is a shortage that 594 00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:14,600 Speaker 11: there's no doubt about that, and that's a big concern 595 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:18,600 Speaker 11: of theirs. But you know, Simmey and Brown saying they're 596 00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:22,480 Speaker 11: playing politics some I think unions do play politics with 597 00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:25,440 Speaker 11: a national government, but I don't know about the Celery 598 00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:26,560 Speaker 11: medical professionals. 599 00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:31,320 Speaker 3: What do you make of Winston doubling down on the Fonterra, Well, 600 00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:32,200 Speaker 3: I think. 601 00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:33,760 Speaker 11: You hit the nail on the head when you said 602 00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:36,920 Speaker 11: that there will be a lot of politicking between now 603 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:41,600 Speaker 11: and the election a year out. You've got David Seymour 604 00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:44,600 Speaker 11: and Winston Peters, you know, they come from opposite the ends. 605 00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:47,240 Speaker 11: I mean, it was really surprising to many of us 606 00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:49,600 Speaker 11: that have watched these two that they got onto a 607 00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:52,720 Speaker 11: coalition together in the first place, because they barely had 608 00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:54,960 Speaker 11: a good word to say about each other and the 609 00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:57,720 Speaker 11: lead up to the negotiations. But so you're going to 610 00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:02,600 Speaker 11: see fallouts of the sort and Winston, I guess you know, 611 00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:06,119 Speaker 11: from the old traditionalists, you'd say he had a point 612 00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:09,479 Speaker 11: that you've got very well known New Zealand brands. They 613 00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:12,160 Speaker 11: are being sold off to the French. But if you're 614 00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:15,280 Speaker 11: a farmer and you've got three to four hundred cows, 615 00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:18,360 Speaker 11: you tend to make out of this four billion dollar 616 00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:22,800 Speaker 11: deal about two hundred thousand dollars. So it's going to 617 00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:25,200 Speaker 11: be difficult for them to turn down. As you say, 618 00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:28,840 Speaker 11: they're voting at the moment. But whatever Winston says, and 619 00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:32,720 Speaker 11: these circulated farmers this morning saying they should think twice 620 00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:35,840 Speaker 11: about this, I think money always speaks volumes, and I 621 00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 11: think they'll probably go for the dollar. 622 00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:40,280 Speaker 3: Now, have you managed to understand the ex proposal, because 623 00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:42,200 Speaker 3: I know you found this very confusing, because it is 624 00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:42,920 Speaker 3: actually confusing. 625 00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:46,080 Speaker 11: It is confusing, but essentially it boils down to if 626 00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:49,480 Speaker 11: you've got an alternative, if the retailer provides you an 627 00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:53,080 Speaker 11: alternative to pay. We're talking about the surcharge. 628 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:53,880 Speaker 3: Then they can charge the search oarge. 629 00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:58,360 Speaker 11: Well then they can if they yes, I and many 630 00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:01,920 Speaker 11: of us including myself, go into a place, see that 631 00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:04,800 Speaker 11: there is a surcharge there, and I'll pay by f 632 00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:08,600 Speaker 11: poss rather than your credit card and I think really 633 00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:12,040 Speaker 11: the impediment should be laid at the door of credit 634 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:14,960 Speaker 11: card companies and banks, not at retailers. 635 00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:15,719 Speaker 3: Maybe totally. 636 00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:18,360 Speaker 11: If they're going to make changes, they look at higher EACE. 637 00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:21,560 Speaker 3: So how do you think Scott Simpson feels about this? 638 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:23,640 Speaker 3: Because it was only yesterday he was on the radio, 639 00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:25,320 Speaker 3: wasn't he He was saying, no, I'm going to bring 640 00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:26,800 Speaker 3: you a surcharge less summer. 641 00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:29,080 Speaker 11: I don't know whether he'll be able to. I mean 642 00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:31,360 Speaker 11: he's pretty insistent on it, and you must have had 643 00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:34,440 Speaker 11: the sign of surely from cabinet. But maybe it's going 644 00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:35,280 Speaker 11: to be revisited. 645 00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:37,000 Speaker 3: It sounds very much like it's going to have to 646 00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:39,280 Speaker 3: be revisited to Thank god, Barry. Thanks very much, Cab. 647 00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:40,960 Speaker 3: We'll wrap the political week that was with you later 648 00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:44,080 Speaker 3: on just after six o'clock.

She's the one with the tune that 678 00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:06,960 Speaker 3: I played you last week. This is in the Onslow 679 00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:10,840 Speaker 3: Western Ward. I'll tell you what it is slightly remarkable 680 00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:13,080 Speaker 3: that ray Jung has made it back at all, because 681 00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:14,720 Speaker 3: I'll be honest with you, when he send out the 682 00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:18,000 Speaker 3: pendulous Breasts email, I thought that's the end of him. 683 00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:22,520 Speaker 3: That's it, not only the Maryalty but the Wellington City 684 00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:25,600 Speaker 3: Council as well. You're gonna talk about Tory's boobs like that, 685 00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:29,760 Speaker 3: but no, he survived the Tory boob scandal. Now, John Tookie. 686 00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:31,560 Speaker 3: You know John Tookie because John is on the show 687 00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:34,320 Speaker 3: from time to time. He's a professor of construction management 688 00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:37,360 Speaker 3: at the Auckland University of Technology. He's written a piece 689 00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:40,760 Speaker 3: today about how to rebuild Gaza. He says the damage 690 00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:43,240 Speaker 3: is similar in scale and scope to a Category four 691 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:47,400 Speaker 3: or five hurricane after sustained bombing. He reckons the priorities 692 00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 3: have to be first constituting the buried assets, so you 693 00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:52,480 Speaker 3: basically start under the ground first. In terms of building 694 00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:53,720 Speaker 3: the place up right, so you go for the power 695 00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:56,480 Speaker 3: of the water, of the sewage, the pumping stations, the 696 00:31:56,560 --> 00:31:59,360 Speaker 3: original lines of buried pipes will be known from city mapping, 697 00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:01,120 Speaker 3: but a lot of it it's going to be cracked 698 00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:03,000 Speaker 3: and broken and destroyed. So you're gonna have to fix 699 00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:04,560 Speaker 3: all of that up. If you don't do that, you 700 00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:07,200 Speaker 3: get outbreaks of diseases. You also then have to clear 701 00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:10,080 Speaker 3: away the unexploded bombs and ammunition. You have to demolish 702 00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:12,560 Speaker 3: the public the damaged houses and the public buildings because 703 00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:16,239 Speaker 3: otherwise they fall on people, and so huge demolition has 704 00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:18,960 Speaker 3: to happen. After you do that, then you need to 705 00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:22,320 Speaker 3: start constructing and repairing the most important things, the hospital, 706 00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:25,120 Speaker 3: the houses, the schools, the road systems, the governance infrastructure. 707 00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:29,280 Speaker 3: He says, how long is it going to take? Stalingrad 708 00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:34,160 Speaker 3: took more than twenty years to rebuild after World War II, 709 00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:35,960 Speaker 3: so it can take a very very long time. He's 710 00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:37,920 Speaker 3: going to be with us after six o'clock and just 711 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:40,600 Speaker 3: talk us through exactly how you go about doing that. 712 00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:42,920 Speaker 3: But next up, let's have a chat to Steve Simon. Now, 713 00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:45,440 Speaker 3: Steve is the chair of the Organized Crime Task Force. 714 00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:47,720 Speaker 3: If you've been following this, you know what I'm talking about. 715 00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:50,000 Speaker 3: These are the guys who've released a series of reports 716 00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:52,480 Speaker 3: on how we deal with organized crime. This is the 717 00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:55,880 Speaker 3: last of their reports. They say it is a serious 718 00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:58,080 Speaker 3: national security threat to the country and we need a 719 00:32:58,120 --> 00:33:00,000 Speaker 3: minister in charge of it. News Talk zb. 720 00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:37,760 Speaker 1: To pressing the newsmakers to get the real story. It's 721 00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:41,760 Speaker 1: Heather duper Clan Drive with one New Zealand coverage like 722 00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:42,680 Speaker 1: no one else. 723 00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:45,840 Speaker 2: News talkshid be good afternoon. 724 00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:48,680 Speaker 3: The final report on how to tackle our organized crime 725 00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:51,880 Speaker 3: has landed. It says organized crime is now New Zealand's 726 00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:55,480 Speaker 3: greatest national security threat. We need a dedicated Minister of 727 00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:58,960 Speaker 3: organized crime and implementing anything less than the recommendations in 728 00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:01,560 Speaker 3: full will not be enough. Steve Simon is the chair 729 00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:04,840 Speaker 3: of the advisory group. Hi, Steve, Hey, how do you 730 00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:08,000 Speaker 3: judge it to be the greatest national security threat that 731 00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:08,480 Speaker 3: we face? 732 00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:15,360 Speaker 15: From speaking to senior members of the police and customs 733 00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:18,960 Speaker 15: and other agencies, talking to them about the size of 734 00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:22,440 Speaker 15: the threat that we have now, and also by looking 735 00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:26,920 Speaker 15: at the international experience, whether that's the UK, the Pacific 736 00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:30,399 Speaker 15: or Australia and seeing where it could go and get 737 00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:33,440 Speaker 15: particularly worse. So we see it as both a threat 738 00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:36,840 Speaker 15: now and potentially getting much worse as a threat for 739 00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:37,360 Speaker 15: New Zealand. 740 00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:39,200 Speaker 3: Right I mean, I can see it as a health threat, 741 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:41,319 Speaker 3: right if you've got drugs being done. I can see 742 00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:44,440 Speaker 3: it as a crime threat if you've got criminals involved. 743 00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:46,360 Speaker 3: But how does it become a security threat. 744 00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:54,480 Speaker 15: Because organized crime is effectively affecting every New Zealander, whether 745 00:34:54,520 --> 00:34:58,919 Speaker 15: it's because our wastewater results have doubled in the last year, 746 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,760 Speaker 15: we have the effects of a greater community of people 747 00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:08,200 Speaker 15: consuming meth andphetamine, and whether that results in myth related 748 00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:15,520 Speaker 15: violence or in myth related car accidents causing fatalities. Whether 749 00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:19,520 Speaker 15: it's fraud where one in ten New Zealanders has been 750 00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:22,440 Speaker 15: a victim of fraud within the last year, and that 751 00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:25,360 Speaker 15: number is growing, and so we're seeing the vulnerability of 752 00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:29,319 Speaker 15: our community to cyber fraud and the like. Whether it's 753 00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:33,720 Speaker 15: emerging threats like migrant exploitation, which means that the products 754 00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:37,760 Speaker 15: we buy, the services we use may be contributing towards 755 00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:43,600 Speaker 15: migrant exploitation. Whether it's simple things like black market tobacco, 756 00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:47,440 Speaker 15: people getting the cigarettes, getting them through the black market 757 00:35:47,719 --> 00:35:50,640 Speaker 15: at a cheaper price, but New Zealanders bearing the social 758 00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:55,920 Speaker 15: costs and the health costs that are associated with those cigarettes 759 00:35:55,960 --> 00:35:58,080 Speaker 15: not having paid revenue. 760 00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:00,279 Speaker 3: On when you go to ministers and you tell that 761 00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:02,200 Speaker 3: this is your view. Do they take you seriously? Can 762 00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:03,120 Speaker 3: you see that it lands? 763 00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:10,040 Speaker 15: Yes, I've been pleasantly surprised at how much support there 764 00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:15,000 Speaker 15: has been at a minister level. It helps that Minister Costello, 765 00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:20,040 Speaker 15: who was the person driving this, has a background in 766 00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:22,640 Speaker 15: the police and also did a lot of work in 767 00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:27,239 Speaker 15: the migrant exploitation space. Obviously, mister Mitchell similarly has been 768 00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:30,200 Speaker 15: in the police, and so they know from the front 769 00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:34,560 Speaker 15: lines the issues we're talking about and live from the 770 00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:37,200 Speaker 15: reporting that's been done from their agencies as to how 771 00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:39,600 Speaker 15: big the thread is. And so there has been a 772 00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:42,600 Speaker 15: lot of support. We're just hoping that support will translate 773 00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:45,160 Speaker 15: into our recommendations being adopted. 774 00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:48,160 Speaker 3: Do we really need another minister though? Could we not 775 00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:49,600 Speaker 3: leave this with the police minister? 776 00:36:51,600 --> 00:36:52,000 Speaker 7: We could? 777 00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:56,000 Speaker 15: I guess my point would be at the moment, our 778 00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:59,680 Speaker 15: response organized crime has split over some thirteen different agencies, 779 00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:02,760 Speaker 15: and so what we have at the moment is thirteen 780 00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:07,160 Speaker 15: different agencies and arguably more being involved in that response. 781 00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:10,360 Speaker 15: What we have as a police minister and a police 782 00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:16,280 Speaker 15: commissioner who are dealing with a wide variety of work already. 783 00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:22,440 Speaker 15: So whether that's domestic violence, shop listing, meth related harm, 784 00:37:22,719 --> 00:37:25,280 Speaker 15: all of those things falling within the ambit of police. 785 00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:28,960 Speaker 15: Obviously organized crime is a big component of that. But 786 00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:31,520 Speaker 15: what we need is someone who can pull together the 787 00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:35,640 Speaker 15: work the police are doing, customs are doing, the IA, MPI, 788 00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:39,840 Speaker 15: all these other agencies, but also tie in the private 789 00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:43,640 Speaker 15: world and the communities to be part of one global, 790 00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:48,239 Speaker 15: well sorry, one complete response to organized crime. We need 791 00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:52,080 Speaker 15: that accountability so the public can know who is taking charge, 792 00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:56,880 Speaker 15: who is responsible for responding to organized crime, point to 793 00:37:56,920 --> 00:37:58,759 Speaker 15: them and be able to say, look, we're holding your 794 00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:02,360 Speaker 15: accountable for them to also hold all these agencies to 795 00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:03,040 Speaker 15: account as well. 796 00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:05,560 Speaker 3: Steve, Thanks very much for you time appreciated. Steve Simon, 797 00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:08,320 Speaker 3: Chair of the Ministerial Advisory Group on Organized Crime. 798 00:38:08,680 --> 00:38:11,080 Speaker 2: Together Do for Clans act looks like it. 799 00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:13,720 Speaker 3: Might tell off the planned surcharge ban. Now, the plan 800 00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:16,920 Speaker 3: was to ban retailers from putting a surcharge on contactless 801 00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:19,640 Speaker 3: credit card purchases so that they use to cover the 802 00:38:19,680 --> 00:38:22,560 Speaker 3: fees that they pay, but acts written to National proposing 803 00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:25,399 Speaker 3: to actually allow businesses to continue with the surcharges as 804 00:38:25,440 --> 00:38:27,879 Speaker 3: long as they give customers an alternative way to pay, 805 00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:30,839 Speaker 3: like cash or f poss AX, PALG parmas with us. Now, 806 00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:34,600 Speaker 3: Hi palmeg Hi heada. Is this a proposal that you 807 00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:36,640 Speaker 3: may or may not go with or is this a 808 00:38:36,640 --> 00:38:38,239 Speaker 3: line in the sand and this is what you want? 809 00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:42,720 Speaker 13: So the bill is going through the Select Committee process. 810 00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:44,720 Speaker 13: So I have put this idea to the Select Committee 811 00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:46,640 Speaker 13: at the start of the process. And as you know 812 00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:51,040 Speaker 13: that many bills have been adjusted in the Select Committy process. 813 00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:53,680 Speaker 13: So I'll be really looking forward to seeing what submitters 814 00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:56,000 Speaker 13: have to say on this amendment I propose. 815 00:38:56,080 --> 00:38:57,960 Speaker 3: If National says to yet not, we're not going to 816 00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:00,879 Speaker 3: do that. It's a ban on everything all charges. Will 817 00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:01,600 Speaker 3: you support that? 818 00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:05,960 Speaker 13: So this bill is a government policy and actors committed 819 00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:09,759 Speaker 13: to supporting a government position, but that doesn't mean that 820 00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:12,160 Speaker 13: we can't put our ideas forward. So I have done 821 00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:14,600 Speaker 13: that and now it's in the hands of the Select Committee. 822 00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:16,600 Speaker 3: Have you heard back from Scott Simpson on this. 823 00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:18,520 Speaker 11: Not yet? 824 00:39:18,520 --> 00:39:22,480 Speaker 3: Directly, are you convinced of the merits of banning all surcharges? 825 00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:26,360 Speaker 13: So what I've heard from businesses is this that it 826 00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:28,520 Speaker 13: is going to impose a huge amount of cost and 827 00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:32,120 Speaker 13: businesses obviously that depends on businesses turnover and That's where 828 00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:34,680 Speaker 13: I have come up with this position because my position 829 00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:38,360 Speaker 13: is about choice and cost. It's about saving different modes 830 00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:42,560 Speaker 13: of payment, also stopping inflation, because if businesses can't search 831 00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:45,440 Speaker 13: charge for PAYWAF, they will build the cost of that 832 00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:48,600 Speaker 13: in their products and then everybody who is using other 833 00:39:49,080 --> 00:39:51,279 Speaker 13: modes of payment will also end up paying the cost 834 00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:54,640 Speaker 13: towards that. That will result in higher prices for everybody, 835 00:39:54,680 --> 00:39:55,680 Speaker 13: and I want to stop that. 836 00:39:55,920 --> 00:39:58,640 Speaker 3: So that's the idea. Be okay you, I agree with 837 00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:00,440 Speaker 3: you on everything you just said, So how can you 838 00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:01,920 Speaker 3: support the surcharge ban then? 839 00:40:03,360 --> 00:40:06,399 Speaker 13: So what I'm saying is that if a business is 840 00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:10,960 Speaker 13: not providing any other choice, then the band should be applicates. 841 00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:12,719 Speaker 3: I know, but I asked, should not thought if they 842 00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:15,520 Speaker 3: don't accept this proposal? Will you still support the surcharge banning? 843 00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:17,279 Speaker 3: You said yes, But how can you if you know 844 00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:19,640 Speaker 3: that it's going to impose costs on businesses? 845 00:40:20,560 --> 00:40:22,479 Speaker 13: It is going to and as I said, the bill 846 00:40:22,640 --> 00:40:26,200 Speaker 13: is government policy. An actors committed to supporting the government position. 847 00:40:26,320 --> 00:40:29,080 Speaker 13: But as I said, many legislations have been changed in 848 00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:32,200 Speaker 13: the Select Committy process, and that's what I'm looking forward 849 00:40:32,239 --> 00:40:32,960 Speaker 13: to this bill. 850 00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:36,160 Speaker 3: Beings for you Okay, So alternative theory, have you given 851 00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:38,759 Speaker 3: Scott Simpson a way out of this little conundrum that 852 00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:39,680 Speaker 3: he's found himself in. 853 00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:43,760 Speaker 13: So I have put my idea forward to this Select Committee, 854 00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:46,080 Speaker 13: because now the bill isn't the Select Committee, not with 855 00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:48,719 Speaker 13: the Minister, so it will be reported back and we'll 856 00:40:48,719 --> 00:40:50,719 Speaker 13: have to see what form it is reported back. 857 00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:54,360 Speaker 3: Okay, Palmjet appreciated. Pumjeet Palmer, ACT Party Commerce and Consumer 858 00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:57,719 Speaker 3: Fair spokesperson. I have a suspicion, I just think just 859 00:40:57,960 --> 00:41:02,040 Speaker 3: alternative theory here that maybe ACT has just given Scott 860 00:41:02,080 --> 00:41:05,160 Speaker 3: Simpson a way out of a terrible policy because at 861 00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:08,000 Speaker 3: the moment, if he imposes this policy, he is going 862 00:41:08,040 --> 00:41:10,640 Speaker 3: to be getting a lot of retailers offside just before 863 00:41:10,719 --> 00:41:12,319 Speaker 3: the election. So it might have given him a little 864 00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:15,840 Speaker 3: out here quarter past. Heather got to get you across 865 00:41:15,880 --> 00:41:17,759 Speaker 3: as a terrible sports clash that's happened. I'm going to 866 00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:19,120 Speaker 3: ruin you through that. Just a bit of an update 867 00:41:19,120 --> 00:41:21,480 Speaker 3: really quickly on the Tom Phillips case. The mother of 868 00:41:21,520 --> 00:41:25,360 Speaker 3: the three children has now joined the legal proceeding proceedings 869 00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:27,719 Speaker 3: to keep that information you know that we all know 870 00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:32,439 Speaker 3: about secret. It was originally brought by Tom Phillips's mother 871 00:41:32,719 --> 00:41:35,400 Speaker 3: with Linda Clark as her lawyer. Now the mother of 872 00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:38,080 Speaker 3: the three children has joined different lawyer, Michael Bott knows 873 00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:40,880 Speaker 3: his way around a courtroom, so he'll be good. The 874 00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:43,800 Speaker 3: information still remains suppressed. This is the third time the 875 00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:47,279 Speaker 3: judge has suppressed it. She says this is Justice Cull 876 00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:48,960 Speaker 3: that she's going to release a minute based on her 877 00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:51,240 Speaker 3: decision today, which I think we will all be pleased 878 00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:54,200 Speaker 3: to understand what's going on here. But apparently there is 879 00:41:54,280 --> 00:41:56,400 Speaker 3: no end in sight here and this suppression may go 880 00:41:56,440 --> 00:41:59,720 Speaker 3: on for a very long time. Newstalk zb ah, Okay, 881 00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:03,319 Speaker 3: this is what's happening with the sports clash. So I 882 00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:04,839 Speaker 3: want to say this is a little bit like the 883 00:42:04,880 --> 00:42:07,120 Speaker 3: Warriors versus the All Blacks clash, But I think if 884 00:42:07,160 --> 00:42:09,279 Speaker 3: we're all honest about it, it's like that, but like 885 00:42:09,320 --> 00:42:12,399 Speaker 3: a level down. But it's still annoying because this time 886 00:42:12,440 --> 00:42:16,520 Speaker 3: it's Canterbury's NPC semi final, which is happening tomorrow night 887 00:42:16,920 --> 00:42:19,120 Speaker 3: at exactly the same time as the black Caps are 888 00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:23,160 Speaker 3: playing the T twenty against England tomorrow night at Hagley. 889 00:42:23,360 --> 00:42:25,560 Speaker 3: So apparently what happened is there was some I mean, 890 00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:27,399 Speaker 3: you can't be having this right because if you're into sports, 891 00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:29,960 Speaker 3: you probably want to watch the MPC semi final and 892 00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:31,880 Speaker 3: you definitely want to watch the T twenty right. So 893 00:42:31,920 --> 00:42:34,600 Speaker 3: apparently what happened is that there was discussion about maybe 894 00:42:34,640 --> 00:42:36,840 Speaker 3: moving something around. So there's some chat about maybe bringing 895 00:42:36,880 --> 00:42:40,360 Speaker 3: the the NPC semi final forward and them doing it 896 00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:42,680 Speaker 3: this evening, but that wasn't gonna work for the rugby 897 00:42:42,719 --> 00:42:44,200 Speaker 3: boys because they need a little bit more time to 898 00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:45,840 Speaker 3: turn the thing around, and so as a result, that 899 00:42:45,880 --> 00:42:48,760 Speaker 3: couldn't possibly happen. So then there was some chat about 900 00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:51,439 Speaker 3: maybe shifting. If you're gonna shift one of the two, 901 00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:53,719 Speaker 3: you're gonna you are gonna shift the NPC right and 902 00:42:53,719 --> 00:42:56,759 Speaker 3: you're gonna leave the black Caps because it's an international 903 00:42:56,800 --> 00:42:58,680 Speaker 3: at the time. So they thought maybe they'll bring that 904 00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:00,719 Speaker 3: forward a couple of hours to borrow, maybe do that 905 00:43:00,760 --> 00:43:03,160 Speaker 3: at five o'clock and then do the black Caps at 906 00:43:03,160 --> 00:43:05,880 Speaker 3: seven o'clock. No, said sky Sky TV is not going 907 00:43:05,920 --> 00:43:07,719 Speaker 3: to do it. Sky TV has got the rugby playing on. 908 00:43:08,040 --> 00:43:10,319 Speaker 3: If they've got the rugby and the crickets on TV 909 00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:12,640 Speaker 3: and Z now, I don't know, I don't know. I'm 910 00:43:12,680 --> 00:43:15,360 Speaker 3: not sure that that's the smartest idea. I think that 911 00:43:15,440 --> 00:43:17,440 Speaker 3: may be a little bit of flexibility given what happened 912 00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:19,440 Speaker 3: with the rugby with the Warriors. Remember it led to 913 00:43:19,520 --> 00:43:21,480 Speaker 3: a dip in the All Blacks numbers, and if it 914 00:43:21,520 --> 00:43:22,960 Speaker 3: can dip for the All Blacks, it will dip for 915 00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:24,760 Speaker 3: the NPC. So we'll have a chat to the sports 916 00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:26,919 Speaker 3: huddle when they were with us shortly right now, it's 917 00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:29,640 Speaker 3: twenty past five. Now Kaipita District Council has voted to 918 00:43:29,640 --> 00:43:32,640 Speaker 3: make an official complaint about their election to the Department 919 00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:36,000 Speaker 3: of Internal Affairs. Craig Jepson is the outgoing Kiperer mayor 920 00:43:36,120 --> 00:43:37,880 Speaker 3: and he's the one who asked for the complaint to 921 00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:41,840 Speaker 3: be made. He's with us. Hi, Craig hem, well, thank you. 922 00:43:41,880 --> 00:43:43,280 Speaker 3: What is it that you're concerned about. 923 00:43:45,239 --> 00:43:48,319 Speaker 16: I look, I was hated increasing concerns about what was 924 00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:52,280 Speaker 16: coming before me, about the the way the election process 925 00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:56,560 Speaker 16: was being run. I had lots of stuff balked to 926 00:43:56,600 --> 00:43:59,399 Speaker 16: my attention and I thought it was it's a meal. 927 00:43:59,440 --> 00:44:01,719 Speaker 16: It was my responsibility to bring this concerns to the 928 00:44:01,719 --> 00:44:05,080 Speaker 16: attention of the full Council and get directions how they 929 00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:07,239 Speaker 16: wish to proceed. So we've had a complaint to the 930 00:44:07,320 --> 00:44:10,080 Speaker 16: da asking them to investigate. It's up to them now. 931 00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:14,920 Speaker 3: Okay, So what's the worst thing you heard that was happening. 932 00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:21,200 Speaker 16: Well, for example, we had Toto to Trinity running of 933 00:44:21,320 --> 00:44:26,080 Speaker 16: running a vote voting station of all things at the 934 00:44:26,200 --> 00:44:30,680 Speaker 16: Unitech and Long Array. They had hard out signs telling 935 00:44:30,719 --> 00:44:33,440 Speaker 16: people they had to vote for the Mary Ward. They 936 00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:38,239 Speaker 16: had people in running that station or that event take 937 00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:40,919 Speaker 16: for taking votes who had t shirts with the most 938 00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:43,719 Speaker 16: votes of Solomon. I think I sent Laura, You're producer, 939 00:44:43,719 --> 00:44:49,080 Speaker 16: a photo that we've had instances where we have got 940 00:44:49,800 --> 00:44:52,960 Speaker 16: people running our election process here in Kuipra who have 941 00:44:53,320 --> 00:44:56,000 Speaker 16: relations who are candidates who weren't bettered out of the process. 942 00:44:57,520 --> 00:45:00,759 Speaker 16: I've got heavy concerns about the fact that that we 943 00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:05,759 Speaker 16: had a mobile voting unit which was specifically targeted at 944 00:45:05,800 --> 00:45:11,759 Speaker 16: demographics to harvest to high believe harvest dates from aery constituents, 945 00:45:11,800 --> 00:45:17,879 Speaker 16: whereby they did an advantage where the biggest missing vote 946 00:45:17,880 --> 00:45:22,800 Speaker 16: in our community is actually absent to you house owners 947 00:45:22,800 --> 00:45:25,200 Speaker 16: who live in Auckland and come out in the weekend, 948 00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:27,400 Speaker 16: but our council is not open in the weekend for 949 00:45:27,440 --> 00:45:29,920 Speaker 16: them to go and do a special vote or be 950 00:45:31,200 --> 00:45:34,120 Speaker 16: be enrolled. And so yeah, they miss out, so the 951 00:45:34,120 --> 00:45:35,680 Speaker 16: whole thing was targeted in my opinion. 952 00:45:36,080 --> 00:45:38,400 Speaker 3: Okay, Craig, listen because we struggle to get you up 953 00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:40,040 Speaker 3: on the phone. We've actually run out of time, but 954 00:45:40,520 --> 00:45:41,759 Speaker 3: you just hang on there and I'm just going to 955 00:45:41,800 --> 00:45:43,080 Speaker 3: see if we can maybe get Laura to ask you 956 00:45:43,120 --> 00:45:44,640 Speaker 3: a few more questions. Just got to clarify a few 957 00:45:44,640 --> 00:45:48,000 Speaker 3: more things. That's Craig Jackson, Craig Jipson, the outgoing Kaipata 958 00:45:48,040 --> 00:45:49,359 Speaker 3: District mayor five twenty two. 959 00:45:50,520 --> 00:45:53,040 Speaker 1: On your smart speaker, on the iHeart app and in 960 00:45:53,080 --> 00:45:56,040 Speaker 1: your car on your drive home. It's hither duper clan 961 00:45:56,200 --> 00:45:59,960 Speaker 1: drive with one New Zealand and of power a satellite mobile. 962 00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:01,160 Speaker 2: Well can use talks be. 963 00:46:01,320 --> 00:46:03,239 Speaker 3: Okay, We've got a little bit more information from Craig. 964 00:46:03,280 --> 00:46:04,719 Speaker 3: I'll get you to that and just to take five 965 00:46:04,719 --> 00:46:07,440 Speaker 3: to twenty five hard to believe. But there is another 966 00:46:07,800 --> 00:46:10,520 Speaker 3: problem with Prince Andrew. This time it's been revealed in 967 00:46:10,520 --> 00:46:13,160 Speaker 3: the UK papers that he met the Chinese spy master 968 00:46:13,239 --> 00:46:14,840 Speaker 3: at the center of the spy case that has just 969 00:46:14,880 --> 00:46:16,640 Speaker 3: fallen over in the UK. And he's met this guy 970 00:46:16,680 --> 00:46:19,120 Speaker 3: three times now. Look, I'm not going to get you 971 00:46:19,160 --> 00:46:21,840 Speaker 3: into the details. It's kind of technical, but on the 972 00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:24,520 Speaker 3: scale of Prince Andrew scandals, it's not a big one. 973 00:46:24,560 --> 00:46:26,759 Speaker 3: It's certainly nowhere near as big as the scandal that 974 00:46:27,320 --> 00:46:29,880 Speaker 3: erupted earlier this week when we found out he'd email 975 00:46:29,920 --> 00:46:32,239 Speaker 3: Jeffrey Epstein after he was supposed to have cut ties 976 00:46:32,239 --> 00:46:34,320 Speaker 3: with him and then said we'll play some more soon, 977 00:46:34,840 --> 00:46:38,200 Speaker 3: which definitely makes Prince Andrew a liar and possibly makes 978 00:46:38,239 --> 00:46:40,440 Speaker 3: him a creep as well. Now, what is going to 979 00:46:40,480 --> 00:46:43,120 Speaker 3: be really interesting here is what King Charles does about him, 980 00:46:43,239 --> 00:46:45,080 Speaker 3: Because there is a lot of pressure building on Charles 981 00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:47,840 Speaker 3: and the UK papers to strip all of Andrew's titles 982 00:46:47,840 --> 00:46:50,879 Speaker 3: from him. There's also public support for it, and there's 983 00:46:50,920 --> 00:46:53,279 Speaker 3: some rationale as well, because apparently this is not the 984 00:46:53,360 --> 00:46:55,520 Speaker 3: end of the Prince Andrew scandals. There's more to come 985 00:46:56,160 --> 00:46:59,680 Speaker 3: trouble for Charles's It's not straightforward. These things never are. 986 00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:02,360 Speaker 3: Some of Andrew's titles, like the fact that he's a prince, 987 00:47:02,520 --> 00:47:04,680 Speaker 3: simply can't be taken off him he's born into it. 988 00:47:05,040 --> 00:47:08,680 Speaker 3: Others can, like the dukedom, but that would require a 989 00:47:08,760 --> 00:47:11,719 Speaker 3: law change which is very public and very drawn out. Potentially. 990 00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:14,719 Speaker 3: Others absolutely should be taken off them, like the fact 991 00:47:14,719 --> 00:47:16,960 Speaker 3: that he's a counselor of state, which basically means that 992 00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:20,080 Speaker 3: if something happens to King Charles, then Andrew can deputize 993 00:47:20,120 --> 00:47:21,680 Speaker 3: for him, and I think that is something none of 994 00:47:21,719 --> 00:47:24,520 Speaker 3: us want. Charles, though, might not want to take the 995 00:47:24,600 --> 00:47:26,759 Speaker 3: titles away from him and toss him out of the 996 00:47:26,760 --> 00:47:28,640 Speaker 3: house and cut all the pocket money from him, because 997 00:47:28,640 --> 00:47:31,880 Speaker 3: then Charles would have no control over Andrew. At the moment, 998 00:47:32,400 --> 00:47:35,560 Speaker 3: everything that is being revealed about Andrew is historic right 999 00:47:35,880 --> 00:47:38,719 Speaker 3: right now, he's actually behaving himself because he doesn't want 1000 00:47:38,760 --> 00:47:40,279 Speaker 3: to lose what little he's got. But if he was 1001 00:47:40,320 --> 00:47:42,400 Speaker 3: out on his ear, all bets would be off for 1002 00:47:42,480 --> 00:47:44,640 Speaker 3: the money or the vengeance. He might do a Harry, 1003 00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:47,760 Speaker 3: write a book, maybe strike a Netflix steel, tell everything 1004 00:47:47,800 --> 00:47:49,759 Speaker 3: he knows in the end. I reckon what's going to 1005 00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:52,000 Speaker 3: happen here is that Andrew might lose a little bit 1006 00:47:52,320 --> 00:47:55,080 Speaker 3: to satisfy the public in the media, but not everything, 1007 00:47:55,120 --> 00:47:58,960 Speaker 3: because as they say, keep your enemies or your extremely 1008 00:47:59,000 --> 00:48:00,839 Speaker 3: problematic brothers close. 1009 00:48:01,080 --> 00:48:02,360 Speaker 2: Ever duple see Ellen. 1010 00:48:02,480 --> 00:48:05,560 Speaker 3: Okay, So what's happened with Andrew with Craig Jepson, who 1011 00:48:05,640 --> 00:48:07,840 Speaker 3: we were just talking to, is that he has that 1012 00:48:07,920 --> 00:48:09,840 Speaker 3: he and the Council have now voted to file a 1013 00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:12,960 Speaker 3: complaint with the Department of Internal Affairs about what's gone 1014 00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:15,239 Speaker 3: on with the election. They basically want an investigation here. 1015 00:48:15,520 --> 00:48:18,439 Speaker 3: The Department of Internal Affairs has written back to ask 1016 00:48:18,480 --> 00:48:20,799 Speaker 3: because we've asked them, written back to us and said 1017 00:48:21,239 --> 00:48:24,840 Speaker 3: this is not our jurisdiction. We cannot do this. He's 1018 00:48:24,880 --> 00:48:27,920 Speaker 3: gone to completely the wrong place now. He believes the 1019 00:48:27,960 --> 00:48:32,000 Speaker 3: Department of Internal Affairs is wrong. He believes the the 1020 00:48:32,000 --> 00:48:37,480 Speaker 3: Department of Internal Affairs is going to have to investigate. So, I, 1021 00:48:37,560 --> 00:48:39,640 Speaker 3: frankly don't know what he does. What do you do 1022 00:48:39,719 --> 00:48:42,000 Speaker 3: in this situation? You've written to them, you're sure that 1023 00:48:42,120 --> 00:48:44,239 Speaker 3: they should do something, they're sure that they shouldn't. Would 1024 00:48:44,320 --> 00:48:46,680 Speaker 3: what happens next? Anyway, good luck to him, I say, 1025 00:48:46,680 --> 00:48:49,480 Speaker 3: I suppose have we got the results here bought? Still 1026 00:48:49,520 --> 00:48:52,880 Speaker 3: not lord, and we're not even put out of our 1027 00:48:52,920 --> 00:48:55,239 Speaker 3: misery that these results were supposed to come out at 1028 00:48:55,280 --> 00:48:57,200 Speaker 3: four o'clock and they haven't yet. And I don't know 1029 00:48:57,239 --> 00:48:58,920 Speaker 3: if they even will receive him. But as soon as 1030 00:48:58,920 --> 00:49:01,000 Speaker 3: they do so we can find out out what happened here, 1031 00:49:01,120 --> 00:49:03,279 Speaker 3: we will rebringing them to you.

I was just 1073 00:51:10,880 --> 00:51:12,880 Speaker 18: very fortunate that there was a very quiet time in netball. 1074 00:51:12,920 --> 00:51:16,680 Speaker 18: There was very much going on at all. No, nothing dramatic. 1075 00:51:16,400 --> 00:51:19,399 Speaker 3: Was happening at all happened and nothing happened, Nathan, because 1076 00:51:19,440 --> 00:51:20,800 Speaker 3: we're still in the same position. 1077 00:51:21,600 --> 00:51:23,520 Speaker 18: Left, what are we getting on for six weeks now 1078 00:51:23,600 --> 00:51:27,000 Speaker 18: since stone ni Lean Totals stood down. So no, it's 1079 00:51:27,040 --> 00:51:30,160 Speaker 18: an absolute mess. It's an absolute mess. And the handling 1080 00:51:30,880 --> 00:51:34,239 Speaker 18: of this crisis is I suppose the thing that there's 1081 00:51:34,280 --> 00:51:36,840 Speaker 18: where the scrutiny should be on. The scrutiny should not 1082 00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:40,520 Speaker 18: be on the players who complained. The players obviously had 1083 00:51:40,520 --> 00:51:43,360 Speaker 18: an issue, they stood up, they said something to the 1084 00:51:43,360 --> 00:51:46,879 Speaker 18: Players Association anonymously, and from there they've been completely thrown 1085 00:51:46,960 --> 00:51:50,240 Speaker 18: under the bus because the situation has gone on for 1086 00:51:50,560 --> 00:51:53,080 Speaker 18: months now, if you date it back to the camp 1087 00:51:53,160 --> 00:51:56,000 Speaker 18: in January, the situation has been left to Festa and 1088 00:51:56,160 --> 00:51:57,520 Speaker 18: it just hasn't been handled. 1089 00:51:58,239 --> 00:52:00,000 Speaker 3: I'm not as sympathetic to the players as you are, 1090 00:52:00,120 --> 00:52:02,719 Speaker 3: because if you read what's going on, apparently some of 1091 00:52:02,760 --> 00:52:05,719 Speaker 3: them are refusing to play if Dame Noles comes back, 1092 00:52:05,719 --> 00:52:07,400 Speaker 3: So they're not that thrown under the bus. 1093 00:52:07,640 --> 00:52:10,600 Speaker 18: Well, I suppose the issue here here there is that 1094 00:52:10,640 --> 00:52:13,040 Speaker 18: we don't know what's true. All we're hearing are these 1095 00:52:13,080 --> 00:52:15,960 Speaker 18: little scraps of information. So you're saying, apparently the players 1096 00:52:15,960 --> 00:52:17,520 Speaker 18: are saying this, Well, apparently the players are saying that, 1097 00:52:17,520 --> 00:52:19,359 Speaker 18: and blah blah blah blah blah. We don't know what 1098 00:52:19,400 --> 00:52:21,279 Speaker 18: the players have said. We don't know the who what 1099 00:52:21,320 --> 00:52:23,320 Speaker 18: when we're whye how this is true. All we're getting 1100 00:52:23,360 --> 00:52:26,440 Speaker 18: told is we have to respect the process and respect 1101 00:52:26,440 --> 00:52:28,879 Speaker 18: the parties involved. The parties are not being respected because 1102 00:52:28,880 --> 00:52:31,800 Speaker 18: they're just being dragged through the mud in the public 1103 00:52:31,880 --> 00:52:35,600 Speaker 18: because when there's no information, people make assumptions and people guess, 1104 00:52:35,920 --> 00:52:38,480 Speaker 18: and then people who aren't even involved, players who aren't 1105 00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:41,399 Speaker 18: involved get thrown under the bus as well because there's 1106 00:52:41,400 --> 00:52:42,440 Speaker 18: no accountability. 1107 00:52:42,560 --> 00:52:44,840 Speaker 3: Yep, this is true. Do you think here and Nicky, 1108 00:52:44,920 --> 00:52:47,920 Speaker 3: that the players can actually because from what we're hearing, 1109 00:52:48,200 --> 00:52:50,600 Speaker 3: there are splits in the camp right, so some players 1110 00:52:50,640 --> 00:52:53,040 Speaker 3: are annoyed at Grace for having said what she said last. 1111 00:52:53,120 --> 00:52:54,480 Speaker 3: Do you reckon that they can get their heads out 1112 00:52:54,520 --> 00:52:56,279 Speaker 3: of this and actually play together cohesively. 1113 00:52:58,360 --> 00:53:00,879 Speaker 19: Well, before I address that, I just want to say 1114 00:53:00,920 --> 00:53:02,960 Speaker 19: I think the actions of Grace and Wicki was actually 1115 00:53:03,160 --> 00:53:06,840 Speaker 19: incredibly selfish and actually totally unacceptable, and I hope she 1116 00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:09,759 Speaker 19: was hauled over the Colts for it. Because all it 1117 00:53:09,800 --> 00:53:14,160 Speaker 19: did was selfishly undermine the interim coach if it calls 1118 00:53:14,200 --> 00:53:17,319 Speaker 19: and jury. It undermined the players that are there if 1119 00:53:17,320 --> 00:53:19,600 Speaker 19: they didn't agree with her, and the employment issue that 1120 00:53:19,719 --> 00:53:22,160 Speaker 19: is obviously ongoing that we don't know anything about. 1121 00:53:22,239 --> 00:53:24,960 Speaker 4: So it was a really selfish act on her behalf. 1122 00:53:24,960 --> 00:53:28,279 Speaker 19: And I think to what Nathan said, the reason that 1123 00:53:28,320 --> 00:53:30,440 Speaker 19: we don't know anything, I think is because I think 1124 00:53:30,480 --> 00:53:34,160 Speaker 19: there's more to this issue than we're being told. Let's 1125 00:53:34,160 --> 00:53:37,160 Speaker 19: face it, well, look, if Dame no Ling is your 1126 00:53:37,200 --> 00:53:41,520 Speaker 19: best coach ever with regards to results, and you were 1127 00:53:41,640 --> 00:53:44,800 Speaker 19: New Zealand Neppule, why would you not want a resolution? 1128 00:53:45,000 --> 00:53:46,600 Speaker 4: Why would you not want her back? 1129 00:53:46,960 --> 00:53:50,680 Speaker 19: You absolutely would, so you would find a way to 1130 00:53:50,719 --> 00:53:53,239 Speaker 19: get a resolution. The fact that they haven't got one 1131 00:53:53,640 --> 00:53:56,560 Speaker 19: suggests to me, I don't know any more than you 1132 00:53:56,640 --> 00:53:59,280 Speaker 19: do that there is more to this than meets the eye. 1133 00:53:59,320 --> 00:54:02,200 Speaker 18: So again we're just guessing. We're just we have no idea, 1134 00:54:02,320 --> 00:54:05,040 Speaker 18: No one has any idea. So again this is a 1135 00:54:05,200 --> 00:54:08,120 Speaker 18: thing of I We'll just assume something based on the 1136 00:54:08,200 --> 00:54:11,040 Speaker 18: complete lack of information we have. I completely disagree with 1137 00:54:11,040 --> 00:54:14,080 Speaker 18: you in regards to Grace. By the way, I totally 1138 00:54:14,160 --> 00:54:16,640 Speaker 18: understand that in that speech she should have said I 1139 00:54:16,719 --> 00:54:19,920 Speaker 18: want you back instead of we on behalf as the captain. 1140 00:54:19,680 --> 00:54:21,799 Speaker 9: Newson speaking behind, he doesn't disagree with me. 1141 00:54:21,920 --> 00:54:25,640 Speaker 18: But if she said nothing and then Knowles didn't come back, 1142 00:54:25,840 --> 00:54:28,839 Speaker 18: She'd be sitting there going, oh, what if I'd said something? 1143 00:54:28,880 --> 00:54:30,920 Speaker 18: What if I'd been honest? What if I'd spoken out 1144 00:54:30,960 --> 00:54:32,719 Speaker 18: in support of her? What if I've been brave? Because 1145 00:54:32,760 --> 00:54:34,880 Speaker 18: all the players have been told us don't speak, and 1146 00:54:34,920 --> 00:54:36,759 Speaker 18: they obviously don't all agree with that. 1147 00:54:37,600 --> 00:54:40,040 Speaker 19: There wasn't her place to do that. It was not 1148 00:54:40,080 --> 00:54:41,879 Speaker 19: her place to do that, But why not. 1149 00:54:41,840 --> 00:54:44,120 Speaker 18: The whole the whole reason we're in this situation because 1150 00:54:44,160 --> 00:54:46,680 Speaker 18: players voice concerns. If she has a different opinion, and 1151 00:54:46,680 --> 00:54:48,239 Speaker 18: she's a player and she voices. 1152 00:54:47,960 --> 00:54:51,360 Speaker 19: That she was doing it on behalf of newsic of 1153 00:54:51,440 --> 00:54:54,799 Speaker 19: that team and a post game stand up, that's that's 1154 00:54:54,840 --> 00:54:55,880 Speaker 19: not the right platform. 1155 00:54:56,120 --> 00:54:57,960 Speaker 18: But we can all read between the lines that that's 1156 00:54:57,960 --> 00:55:00,080 Speaker 18: her personal opinion, right, we can all read between in 1157 00:55:00,120 --> 00:55:00,680 Speaker 18: the lines. 1158 00:55:01,120 --> 00:55:03,600 Speaker 19: I don't agree. I don't agree anyway. I think the 1159 00:55:03,600 --> 00:55:05,920 Speaker 19: thing is New Zealand Netbull's hands are pretty tired now. 1160 00:55:05,960 --> 00:55:08,360 Speaker 19: I mean, even if they wanted her back, they can't 1161 00:55:08,440 --> 00:55:12,600 Speaker 19: reinstate her without resolving the review's findings. They can't resolve 1162 00:55:12,640 --> 00:55:16,719 Speaker 19: her without addressing these employee well being obligations, and they 1163 00:55:16,760 --> 00:55:19,440 Speaker 19: have to complete the mediation in a way that legally 1164 00:55:19,680 --> 00:55:21,120 Speaker 19: protects the organization. 1165 00:55:21,480 --> 00:55:22,840 Speaker 4: So they're actually a bit screwed. 1166 00:55:23,239 --> 00:55:26,280 Speaker 19: So whether, to your question, hither, whether that actually affects 1167 00:55:26,320 --> 00:55:27,799 Speaker 19: the way these girls play. 1168 00:55:27,800 --> 00:55:29,479 Speaker 4: This evening remains to be seen. 1169 00:55:29,800 --> 00:55:32,680 Speaker 19: But boy, their backs are up against it because you know, 1170 00:55:33,000 --> 00:55:36,920 Speaker 19: not only are they up against Australian side that's formidable, 1171 00:55:37,440 --> 00:55:39,480 Speaker 19: they you know, there's dissension in the. 1172 00:55:39,520 --> 00:55:42,319 Speaker 4: Ranks clearly, so it's going to be really interesting to watch. 1173 00:55:42,360 --> 00:55:44,160 Speaker 18: They did beats South Africa three nail with all the 1174 00:55:44,880 --> 00:55:47,000 Speaker 18: hanging over their heads, so they pulled it together for 1175 00:55:47,040 --> 00:55:48,160 Speaker 18: that and won a series three nail. 1176 00:55:48,320 --> 00:55:51,080 Speaker 3: Yes, so fingers crossed, maybe they can I agree with you. 1177 00:55:51,200 --> 00:55:53,080 Speaker 2: I hope they do. 1178 00:55:53,080 --> 00:55:55,000 Speaker 3: Do you Reckon Sky made the right call yesterday and 1179 00:55:55,280 --> 00:55:57,160 Speaker 3: sorry not moving the rugby tomorrow? 1180 00:55:59,200 --> 00:56:03,960 Speaker 4: Yeah totally. But look, they've got way way more issues 1181 00:56:04,000 --> 00:56:08,879 Speaker 4: to deal with than player fan base. 1182 00:56:09,520 --> 00:56:13,200 Speaker 19: They've got a lot of considerations with their commercial partnerships. 1183 00:56:13,560 --> 00:56:18,000 Speaker 19: There's considerations around whether the players actually you know, have 1184 00:56:18,200 --> 00:56:22,280 Speaker 19: time to change their schedules, They've got maybe logistical issues 1185 00:56:22,320 --> 00:56:26,279 Speaker 19: around their operational you know, broadcasts, things like that. 1186 00:56:26,400 --> 00:56:28,200 Speaker 4: So there's I think there's a lot of fact that they. 1187 00:56:28,160 --> 00:56:30,360 Speaker 3: May these audience right, because that's what happened with the 1188 00:56:30,360 --> 00:56:32,520 Speaker 3: Warriors and the All Blacks. The All Blacks match wasn't 1189 00:56:32,880 --> 00:56:36,080 Speaker 3: it wasn't actually that white. It wasn't the best viewing numbers. 1190 00:56:36,080 --> 00:56:38,319 Speaker 3: They could have got people still watching the Warriors. Something 1191 00:56:38,440 --> 00:56:39,400 Speaker 3: might play out here. 1192 00:56:40,120 --> 00:56:42,359 Speaker 4: Yea possibly, but it just might have been too late, 1193 00:56:42,640 --> 00:56:45,240 Speaker 4: you know. Yeah, the obligations they've got. 1194 00:56:45,239 --> 00:56:47,879 Speaker 3: I'm going to go T twenty over NPC what about you. 1195 00:56:47,840 --> 00:56:51,759 Speaker 18: Know, Yeah, I'm not supporting either of the NPC teams, 1196 00:56:51,760 --> 00:56:53,759 Speaker 18: so yeah, I'm going to watch the cricket instead. I 1197 00:56:53,800 --> 00:56:56,560 Speaker 18: think though that you know, the T twenty, the scheduling 1198 00:56:56,560 --> 00:56:59,359 Speaker 18: of that was locked in since what March, Whereas they 1199 00:56:59,400 --> 00:57:01,320 Speaker 18: always knew that they were going to have an NPC 1200 00:57:01,440 --> 00:57:03,640 Speaker 18: semi final, so they could have just like they knew 1201 00:57:03,680 --> 00:57:05,040 Speaker 18: that the cricket was going to be on this night, 1202 00:57:05,040 --> 00:57:07,600 Speaker 18: they could have scheduled the NPC semi final. So when 1203 00:57:07,640 --> 00:57:10,440 Speaker 18: you're talking about players changing their own plans, well, the 1204 00:57:10,560 --> 00:57:13,840 Speaker 18: NPC semi final could have just been scheduled way earlier, earlier, 1205 00:57:14,600 --> 00:57:17,600 Speaker 18: because instead they're they're playing what is it a an 1206 00:57:17,600 --> 00:57:21,320 Speaker 18: Australia a versus Japan fifteen game and that five pm 1207 00:57:21,520 --> 00:57:22,920 Speaker 18: five pm slot? Who's going to watch that? 1208 00:57:23,120 --> 00:57:23,160 Speaker 20: No? 1209 00:57:23,520 --> 00:57:24,960 Speaker 3: Well watch the sports. 1210 00:57:25,360 --> 00:57:26,360 Speaker 9: No, I'm not going to watch it. 1211 00:57:26,400 --> 00:57:28,000 Speaker 18: So if I'm not going to watch it, then who's 1212 00:57:28,000 --> 00:57:28,560 Speaker 18: going to watch it? 1213 00:57:29,040 --> 00:57:30,760 Speaker 3: Quite all right, We'll take a break. Come back to 1214 00:57:30,800 --> 00:57:34,600 Speaker 3: you guys shortly. Oh lord, I just turned my own 1215 00:57:34,640 --> 00:57:35,320 Speaker 3: microphone off. 1216 00:57:35,400 --> 00:57:37,480 Speaker 18: Nathan, do you want me to do the outright? 1217 00:57:37,800 --> 00:57:38,400 Speaker 3: Can you go on? 1218 00:57:38,480 --> 00:57:38,600 Speaker 15: Then? 1219 00:57:38,640 --> 00:57:39,520 Speaker 3: Who are speaking to? 1220 00:57:40,200 --> 00:57:41,040 Speaker 18: Who are you speaking to? 1221 00:57:41,200 --> 00:57:41,600 Speaker 17: No? 1222 00:57:41,640 --> 00:57:43,880 Speaker 3: Maybe you shouldn't. Nathan Lemon Nikki staris back in to 1223 00:57:43,960 --> 00:57:45,440 Speaker 3: take sixteen away from six. 1224 00:57:46,480 --> 00:57:50,640 Speaker 1: The Friday Sports title with New Zealand Southby's International real team, 1225 00:57:50,720 --> 00:57:53,120 Speaker 1: the Global Leader and Luxury real Estate. 1226 00:57:53,400 --> 00:57:55,640 Speaker 3: Right, you're back with the sports huddle, Nicky Starrus and 1227 00:57:55,720 --> 00:57:57,960 Speaker 3: Nathan Liminicky, do you reckon the NRLs made the right 1228 00:57:58,000 --> 00:57:59,640 Speaker 3: call with the ten year band for any of the 1229 00:57:59,640 --> 00:58:00,880 Speaker 3: players go to the Soudias. 1230 00:58:02,920 --> 00:58:04,240 Speaker 4: No, No, I don't. 1231 00:58:04,400 --> 00:58:07,000 Speaker 19: And the reason I say that is because I don't 1232 00:58:07,040 --> 00:58:08,880 Speaker 19: think it's got any legal legs. It's not going to 1233 00:58:08,920 --> 00:58:11,360 Speaker 19: hold up legally, so It's almost like a bit of 1234 00:58:11,360 --> 00:58:14,160 Speaker 19: a false threat in some ways. It's really impossible to 1235 00:58:14,520 --> 00:58:18,040 Speaker 19: defend that under the current Australian employment law. 1236 00:58:18,440 --> 00:58:22,120 Speaker 4: I think they look if they. 1237 00:58:22,000 --> 00:58:25,040 Speaker 19: Pressed ahead and actually tried to enforce it, then they're 1238 00:58:25,080 --> 00:58:28,720 Speaker 19: going to face incredible you know, restraint of trade, litigation 1239 00:58:28,800 --> 00:58:31,920 Speaker 19: and things. What they should have done, I think is 1240 00:58:31,960 --> 00:58:35,120 Speaker 19: they should have condemned it absolutely if that's how they feel. 1241 00:58:35,440 --> 00:58:38,800 Speaker 19: But can she done what Rugby Union has done and 1242 00:58:38,920 --> 00:58:42,160 Speaker 19: taken a slightly safer path there and saying Okay, you 1243 00:58:42,200 --> 00:58:45,320 Speaker 19: will be ineligible for national selection, but you won't be 1244 00:58:45,360 --> 00:58:48,200 Speaker 19: banned for club rugby or you know, sort of any 1245 00:58:48,200 --> 00:58:51,240 Speaker 19: employment and that sort of that reduces the risk for 1246 00:58:51,280 --> 00:58:53,400 Speaker 19: them Otherwise it just it just feels like a really 1247 00:58:53,440 --> 00:58:56,000 Speaker 19: sort of a threat that just won't stand up. 1248 00:58:56,680 --> 00:58:59,080 Speaker 3: I'm not even sure, Nathan, why they're so stressed out 1249 00:58:59,080 --> 00:58:59,480 Speaker 3: about this. 1250 00:59:01,080 --> 00:59:04,080 Speaker 18: When I read what it was, it just sort of 1251 00:59:04,120 --> 00:59:06,800 Speaker 18: struck me as really extreme, because it's not just if 1252 00:59:06,840 --> 00:59:09,280 Speaker 18: you go there, it's if you talk to them about 1253 00:59:09,320 --> 00:59:12,200 Speaker 18: going there. It's about having a conversation, and so the 1254 00:59:12,240 --> 00:59:15,360 Speaker 18: player agents as well would be banned for initiating those 1255 00:59:15,360 --> 00:59:18,640 Speaker 18: conversations with Rugby three sixty so if you even talk 1256 00:59:18,720 --> 00:59:21,400 Speaker 18: to Rugby three sixty you get banned from the NRAL 1257 00:59:21,440 --> 00:59:23,760 Speaker 18: for ten years. It's a bit like your mum's saying 1258 00:59:23,800 --> 00:59:26,040 Speaker 18: to you, Oh, there's this lolli jar. You're not allowed 1259 00:59:26,040 --> 00:59:28,000 Speaker 18: to touch the lollijo, and if you do touch the loti jar, 1260 00:59:28,240 --> 00:59:30,200 Speaker 18: I'll have you put down, you know, Like it just 1261 00:59:30,280 --> 00:59:33,800 Speaker 18: seems way over the top. And I do think, I 1262 00:59:33,840 --> 00:59:35,560 Speaker 18: do think it's just a bit of a threat because 1263 00:59:35,840 --> 00:59:38,080 Speaker 18: the big question I had, the same as you, is 1264 00:59:38,640 --> 00:59:41,680 Speaker 18: there's no way this holds up legally, Like surely I'm 1265 00:59:41,720 --> 00:59:44,080 Speaker 18: not a lawyer, but surely we get a lawyer to 1266 00:59:44,160 --> 00:59:45,919 Speaker 18: talk about it, because I don't see how they could 1267 00:59:46,000 --> 00:59:46,480 Speaker 18: enforce it. 1268 00:59:47,040 --> 00:59:47,600 Speaker 3: Do you reckon? 1269 00:59:47,640 --> 00:59:48,400 Speaker 4: The thing? Is healer? 1270 00:59:48,800 --> 00:59:49,120 Speaker 7: Sorry? 1271 00:59:49,160 --> 00:59:49,520 Speaker 4: Sorry? 1272 00:59:49,680 --> 00:59:52,120 Speaker 19: I think the thing is they're nervous because you know, 1273 00:59:52,160 --> 00:59:54,960 Speaker 19: they've probably watched you know, the PGA and the Live tour, 1274 00:59:55,040 --> 00:59:57,680 Speaker 19: and they're seeing these Saudi's coming in with you know, 1275 00:59:58,000 --> 01:00:02,280 Speaker 19: very very deep pockets and they don't want disruption to 1276 01:00:02,400 --> 01:00:05,000 Speaker 19: their sport, their codes. So they're trying, well, if we 1277 01:00:05,040 --> 01:00:06,760 Speaker 19: can nip it in the bud now before it even 1278 01:00:06,960 --> 01:00:08,160 Speaker 19: you know, gain that attraction. 1279 01:00:08,400 --> 01:00:10,520 Speaker 3: That means that they think that they're actually going to 1280 01:00:10,600 --> 01:00:13,920 Speaker 3: lose significant numbers of like quite good players. 1281 01:00:15,400 --> 01:00:19,360 Speaker 19: Well potentially no, but you know they're more likely to 1282 01:00:19,400 --> 01:00:21,080 Speaker 19: be players at the back end of their career. 1283 01:00:21,240 --> 01:00:23,480 Speaker 4: But they just, yeah, they won't want the disruption. 1284 01:00:23,600 --> 01:00:25,200 Speaker 19: They just you know, and so they just go, Okay, 1285 01:00:25,200 --> 01:00:27,000 Speaker 19: we can stop it now because these guys are going 1286 01:00:27,080 --> 01:00:29,680 Speaker 19: to throw shit ton of money at them and we're 1287 01:00:29,680 --> 01:00:30,360 Speaker 19: going to have nothing. 1288 01:00:30,480 --> 01:00:32,560 Speaker 18: It's like, so Roger to Ivarsischek was one of the 1289 01:00:32,600 --> 01:00:35,320 Speaker 18: players approaches a player who's obviously great, he's a name, 1290 01:00:35,440 --> 01:00:38,080 Speaker 18: and he's in the twilight of his career, so it 1291 01:00:38,080 --> 01:00:39,560 Speaker 18: would be an easy way for him to go and 1292 01:00:39,560 --> 01:00:41,760 Speaker 18: make a million a season sort of can conclude his 1293 01:00:41,880 --> 01:00:44,480 Speaker 18: career in the sports of rugby and rugby league. So 1294 01:00:44,480 --> 01:00:46,600 Speaker 18: I don't think it's going to be I doubt it's 1295 01:00:46,640 --> 01:00:48,920 Speaker 18: going to be stripping away sort of young talent. But 1296 01:00:49,040 --> 01:00:50,720 Speaker 18: if you've got players who are and as I said, 1297 01:00:50,720 --> 01:00:52,560 Speaker 18: the twilight of their careers and then they cop a 1298 01:00:52,600 --> 01:00:54,640 Speaker 18: ten year band, then they're obviously not going to return 1299 01:00:54,680 --> 01:00:56,200 Speaker 18: after ten years, that just sort of ends it. 1300 01:00:56,480 --> 01:00:59,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, But in which case Roger to ivarsas Sheck isn't 1301 01:00:59,360 --> 01:00:59,960 Speaker 3: put off by this. 1302 01:01:00,760 --> 01:01:03,600 Speaker 18: So those players who have already started talking to rugby 1303 01:01:03,600 --> 01:01:06,160 Speaker 18: through sex. Down'd be really interested to know where those 1304 01:01:06,160 --> 01:01:09,280 Speaker 18: conversations are up to and do they dare continue them 1305 01:01:09,280 --> 01:01:10,480 Speaker 18: because you do them in secret? 1306 01:01:10,560 --> 01:01:13,760 Speaker 3: Nikki, do you reckon that we're on? See the Australian 1307 01:01:13,800 --> 01:01:16,200 Speaker 3: schoolboys have beaten our school boys in the rugby like 1308 01:01:16,320 --> 01:01:18,240 Speaker 3: given them a proper thrashing a couple of times. Have 1309 01:01:18,280 --> 01:01:19,120 Speaker 3: we got a problem here? 1310 01:01:20,880 --> 01:01:22,520 Speaker 4: I think potentially. I remember watching it. 1311 01:01:22,880 --> 01:01:26,840 Speaker 19: A good friend of ours, Niko Stanley, was actually started 1312 01:01:26,880 --> 01:01:30,480 Speaker 19: in that New Zealand team and unfortunately he incurred an 1313 01:01:30,520 --> 01:01:34,320 Speaker 19: injury so he couldn't continue. So we did take an interest. 1314 01:01:34,360 --> 01:01:36,560 Speaker 19: And when Scott told me it was eighty one forty eight, 1315 01:01:36,640 --> 01:01:39,520 Speaker 19: you know, the game that we were watching, I was like, crikey, 1316 01:01:39,600 --> 01:01:40,200 Speaker 19: that's not good. 1317 01:01:40,560 --> 01:01:43,360 Speaker 4: So I think it is a stark warning for what 1318 01:01:43,480 --> 01:01:44,960 Speaker 4: rugby depth we've got here. 1319 01:01:45,400 --> 01:01:47,640 Speaker 19: Or I guess you could sit there and go, well, 1320 01:01:48,160 --> 01:01:50,320 Speaker 19: you know, we put a lot of money into sort 1321 01:01:50,320 --> 01:01:53,000 Speaker 19: of the club and the academies and that part of 1322 01:01:53,040 --> 01:01:55,520 Speaker 19: the pathway, but are we doing enough at the schoolboy 1323 01:01:55,640 --> 01:01:58,720 Speaker 19: level and is there sort of a disconnection there that 1324 01:01:58,840 --> 01:02:00,680 Speaker 19: needs to be you know, need to be worked on. 1325 01:02:00,800 --> 01:02:02,560 Speaker 19: I'm not a rugby expert. So I'm not going to 1326 01:02:02,600 --> 01:02:04,680 Speaker 19: sit here and say how we fix that, but I 1327 01:02:04,760 --> 01:02:08,120 Speaker 19: definitely do think that's an incredible warning to rugby as product. 1328 01:02:08,440 --> 01:02:10,520 Speaker 18: There's a distinction we do have to make here though. 1329 01:02:10,520 --> 01:02:13,240 Speaker 18: Here there is that Australia fielded an under eighteen side 1330 01:02:13,520 --> 01:02:15,920 Speaker 18: and New Zealand fielded a school boy side. So the 1331 01:02:15,920 --> 01:02:18,600 Speaker 18: difference between those two sides is that if you are, 1332 01:02:18,880 --> 01:02:21,040 Speaker 18: from my understanding, if you are seventeen on the first 1333 01:02:21,040 --> 01:02:24,560 Speaker 18: of January, you qualify for an under eighteen side. So 1334 01:02:24,680 --> 01:02:26,960 Speaker 18: someone like me who was born in January, I would 1335 01:02:27,000 --> 01:02:29,280 Speaker 18: have qualified for that under eighteen side the year after 1336 01:02:29,320 --> 01:02:31,880 Speaker 18: I finished school. So Australia, we're going to have players 1337 01:02:31,920 --> 01:02:34,000 Speaker 18: in that team who were bigger and then at that 1338 01:02:34,080 --> 01:02:36,600 Speaker 18: age for teenage boys, you know, eighteen nineteen years old, 1339 01:02:36,680 --> 01:02:38,960 Speaker 18: a year of growth is quite a lot. And those 1340 01:02:39,000 --> 01:02:40,880 Speaker 18: players who come out of school they go into the 1341 01:02:40,880 --> 01:02:43,640 Speaker 18: super rugby environment, so they actually have a significant amount 1342 01:02:43,680 --> 01:02:45,920 Speaker 18: of time in a super rugby environment, getting those that 1343 01:02:46,320 --> 01:02:48,160 Speaker 18: sort of coaching in that level. They're going to grow 1344 01:02:48,200 --> 01:02:50,240 Speaker 18: a huge amount of time in those few months. And 1345 01:02:50,280 --> 01:02:52,560 Speaker 18: if you've got a group of players, a team with 1346 01:02:52,640 --> 01:02:54,680 Speaker 18: players in it who've had that kind of development and 1347 01:02:54,680 --> 01:02:57,200 Speaker 18: a team that hasn't, then the Australia team's obviously going 1348 01:02:57,240 --> 01:02:59,800 Speaker 18: to have a big advantage. The question here is do 1349 01:02:59,840 --> 01:03:02,400 Speaker 18: we change the structure of New Zealand's competition so instead 1350 01:03:02,480 --> 01:03:04,280 Speaker 18: instead of having a school boy team, we have an 1351 01:03:04,360 --> 01:03:06,480 Speaker 18: under eighteen team sixteen? 1352 01:03:06,960 --> 01:03:08,000 Speaker 3: And then, yeah, they didn't love that. 1353 01:03:08,120 --> 01:03:10,919 Speaker 18: Well, the schools pushed back against it. New Zealand Rugby 1354 01:03:10,920 --> 01:03:12,560 Speaker 18: floated the idea of the schools like it, so we 1355 01:03:12,680 --> 01:03:14,600 Speaker 18: stuck with the schoolboys team. So if we want to 1356 01:03:14,640 --> 01:03:16,400 Speaker 18: keep the same structure, we are going to get flogged 1357 01:03:16,440 --> 01:03:19,280 Speaker 18: by Australia every year. All we changed the structure and 1358 01:03:19,320 --> 01:03:19,960 Speaker 18: we put up a fight. 1359 01:03:20,080 --> 01:03:22,720 Speaker 19: Yeah, fair enough, now, Nathan, Now I do agree with 1360 01:03:22,760 --> 01:03:25,480 Speaker 19: you on this netple not so much, but definitely the rugby. 1361 01:03:25,560 --> 01:03:26,480 Speaker 18: Well, okay, that's good. 1362 01:03:26,520 --> 01:03:28,400 Speaker 3: Do you want to say I'm glad you guys have 1363 01:03:28,400 --> 01:03:30,880 Speaker 3: made Nikka.

No, I 1404 01:05:19,600 --> 01:05:23,400 Speaker 3: can't tell you that. Can't tell you about the SUV's wait, 1405 01:05:23,440 --> 01:05:24,680 Speaker 3: I've got to tell you about it. Can't tell you 1406 01:05:24,680 --> 01:05:26,520 Speaker 3: about the skinny models just yet. But I can tell 1407 01:05:26,520 --> 01:05:28,080 Speaker 3: you because I have to very quickly tell you something 1408 01:05:28,080 --> 01:05:31,040 Speaker 3: about Rod Stewart. I think does anybody else find Rod 1409 01:05:31,040 --> 01:05:34,040 Speaker 3: Stewart being obsessed with his trains as funny as I do? 1410 01:05:34,480 --> 01:05:36,080 Speaker 3: Rod Stewart, I don't know if you're aware of this, 1411 01:05:36,160 --> 01:05:38,720 Speaker 3: but he makes model trains. There's nothing wrong with making 1412 01:05:38,720 --> 01:05:40,400 Speaker 3: model trains. But somehow. 1413 01:05:40,880 --> 01:05:41,200 Speaker 2: I don't know. 1414 01:05:41,240 --> 01:05:43,400 Speaker 3: It feels like the kind of thing that a granddad does. 1415 01:05:43,440 --> 01:05:46,760 Speaker 3: When you know it's much quieter life. You would imagine 1416 01:05:46,800 --> 01:05:49,600 Speaker 3: they're sitting by themselves in a quiet way to spend 1417 01:05:49,600 --> 01:05:52,680 Speaker 3: your day. But Rod Stewart is obsessed with his model 1418 01:05:52,720 --> 01:05:55,760 Speaker 3: trains to the extent, according to Penny, his wife, who's 1419 01:05:55,800 --> 01:05:58,440 Speaker 3: just hold a podcast, to the extent that when he 1420 01:05:58,520 --> 01:06:02,400 Speaker 3: goes on tour, he books second hotel room so he can, yes, 1421 01:06:02,640 --> 01:06:05,120 Speaker 3: you should see Laura's face right now. It's weird, so 1422 01:06:05,160 --> 01:06:08,040 Speaker 3: he can take his model trains with him and build 1423 01:06:08,080 --> 01:06:10,080 Speaker 3: them in the second room. Now, I mean, I don't 1424 01:06:10,080 --> 01:06:12,360 Speaker 3: really understand the logistics of this, because surely if you're 1425 01:06:12,360 --> 01:06:14,960 Speaker 3: just going for one night somewhere, you're not like building 1426 01:06:14,960 --> 01:06:17,840 Speaker 3: the thing overnight and then knocking it down the next day. 1427 01:06:17,880 --> 01:06:21,120 Speaker 3: But maybe he's that into it, she says. Anyway, she says, 1428 01:06:21,400 --> 01:06:24,000 Speaker 3: if he doesn't build his model trains, he starts pacing 1429 01:06:24,200 --> 01:06:28,640 Speaker 3: and he gets really irritating. It's weird. Ah, it's not 1430 01:06:28,680 --> 01:06:31,440 Speaker 3: what you think of old hot legs. Anyway, took he 1431 01:06:31,560 --> 01:06:36,120 Speaker 3: next on how to rebuild Gaza. 1432 01:06:35,320 --> 01:06:38,640 Speaker 1: Keeping track of where the money is flowing. The business 1433 01:06:38,680 --> 01:06:43,760 Speaker 1: hour with Hinder Duplessil and mass for insurance investments can 1434 01:06:43,880 --> 01:06:46,640 Speaker 1: chewey Saber, You're in good hands, news talk. 1435 01:06:46,560 --> 01:06:46,880 Speaker 7: Said be. 1436 01:06:48,680 --> 01:06:52,320 Speaker 3: Evening. Japan's first female prime minister might not happen after all. 1437 01:06:52,360 --> 01:06:54,640 Speaker 3: Peter Lewis will explain it about half an hour's time, 1438 01:06:54,720 --> 01:06:56,800 Speaker 3: Barry Soper will wrap the week that was, and Gavin 1439 01:06:56,840 --> 01:06:59,040 Speaker 3: Gray will talk us through where the Charles will actually 1440 01:06:59,080 --> 01:07:02,320 Speaker 3: strip Prince Andrew as titles right now at seven past six. 1441 01:07:02,360 --> 01:07:04,640 Speaker 3: Now sit aside the huge question of who's going to 1442 01:07:04,640 --> 01:07:06,880 Speaker 3: take over the running of Gaza. The other question is 1443 01:07:06,960 --> 01:07:08,800 Speaker 3: how long it's going to take and how much it's 1444 01:07:08,840 --> 01:07:12,240 Speaker 3: going to take to actually rebuild Gaza. The un rickins 1445 01:07:12,280 --> 01:07:14,520 Speaker 3: eighty three percent of all structures and housing units and 1446 01:07:14,560 --> 01:07:16,840 Speaker 3: Gaza City have been destroyed, and pictures show what can 1447 01:07:16,880 --> 01:07:20,800 Speaker 3: only be described as a disaster design. Professor of construction management, 1448 01:07:20,880 --> 01:07:22,760 Speaker 3: John Tucky from aut is with us. 1449 01:07:22,760 --> 01:07:24,880 Speaker 7: Hello, John, Good evening. 1450 01:07:25,080 --> 01:07:27,280 Speaker 3: Jeez, where do you even start with something like this? 1451 01:07:28,400 --> 01:07:31,720 Speaker 7: Oh, it's somewhere else I think is a short version. 1452 01:07:31,760 --> 01:07:33,440 Speaker 20: But if you when it comes down to it, I 1453 01:07:33,440 --> 01:07:38,280 Speaker 20: mean after immediate fix associated with medicine, water, bottle water 1454 01:07:38,360 --> 01:07:41,240 Speaker 20: and that sort of stuff, and re establishing basic services 1455 01:07:41,280 --> 01:07:47,400 Speaker 20: to save lives. Then it's the buried assets, things like water, power, sewerage, 1456 01:07:47,480 --> 01:07:50,320 Speaker 20: et cetera, et cetera, et cetera, all need to be regenerated, 1457 01:07:50,600 --> 01:07:53,080 Speaker 20: which is an intensely difficult job. And then you have 1458 01:07:53,120 --> 01:07:55,240 Speaker 20: to work on all the other civic infrastructure that needs 1459 01:07:55,280 --> 01:07:56,920 Speaker 20: to make it happen. Oh and by the way, you 1460 01:07:56,960 --> 01:07:59,520 Speaker 20: need to make sure that the population have a job 1461 01:07:59,560 --> 01:08:03,080 Speaker 20: to go to to keep the economy actually operational. So 1462 01:08:03,120 --> 01:08:07,440 Speaker 20: it's just a massively complex, in depth job to deal with. 1463 01:08:07,600 --> 01:08:09,560 Speaker 3: I mean, before you do any of the stuff, imagine 1464 01:08:09,600 --> 01:08:11,440 Speaker 3: you have to get rid of the bombs, right. 1465 01:08:12,280 --> 01:08:15,040 Speaker 20: Oh yeah, did I not mention the bomb? I mean 1466 01:08:15,080 --> 01:08:19,600 Speaker 20: the amount of the amount of detritus associated with the 1467 01:08:19,640 --> 01:08:23,240 Speaker 20: conflict itself. You know, let's not go into whether or 1468 01:08:23,320 --> 01:08:27,160 Speaker 20: not you've got, you know, sort of the sorts of 1469 01:08:27,200 --> 01:08:30,800 Speaker 20: devices which are buried and forgotten about and so on. 1470 01:08:31,160 --> 01:08:33,120 Speaker 20: You know, to give you an idea, there are still 1471 01:08:33,160 --> 01:08:37,439 Speaker 20: devices of twenty pounds of ammanol in the First World 1472 01:08:37,479 --> 01:08:40,479 Speaker 20: War that were used and not exploded at the time 1473 01:08:40,600 --> 01:08:43,559 Speaker 20: at a place called Massin's Ridge. You know, these things 1474 01:08:43,640 --> 01:08:48,040 Speaker 20: are insanely dangerous and they have to be all cleared 1475 01:08:48,040 --> 01:08:50,680 Speaker 20: as part of the ongoing process of reconstruction. 1476 01:08:51,800 --> 01:08:53,519 Speaker 3: Do you what do you do with all of the 1477 01:08:53,520 --> 01:08:54,439 Speaker 3: demolition rubble. 1478 01:08:56,320 --> 01:09:00,240 Speaker 20: Well, what they did with Lebanon after this civil war 1479 01:09:00,280 --> 01:09:04,040 Speaker 20: in Lebanon was to shift a lot of it into 1480 01:09:04,080 --> 01:09:07,840 Speaker 20: the ocean and actually reclaim land. And you know, one 1481 01:09:07,840 --> 01:09:10,840 Speaker 20: of the key problems associated with Gaza is simply the 1482 01:09:10,880 --> 01:09:12,880 Speaker 20: fact doesn't have a deep water port to be able 1483 01:09:12,920 --> 01:09:16,040 Speaker 20: to supply things. So you've got a situation where the 1484 01:09:16,120 --> 01:09:20,000 Speaker 20: logistical support necessary to allow all of this infrastructural work 1485 01:09:20,040 --> 01:09:22,240 Speaker 20: to take place is not in there. So you know, 1486 01:09:22,360 --> 01:09:25,400 Speaker 20: maybe you've got a sort of a perverse opportunity here 1487 01:09:25,439 --> 01:09:29,839 Speaker 20: to be able to use the demolition waste to actually 1488 01:09:29,880 --> 01:09:33,599 Speaker 20: create the opportunity to have a harbor. But that having 1489 01:09:33,680 --> 01:09:37,320 Speaker 20: been said, you know you're still dealing with insane amounts 1490 01:09:37,360 --> 01:09:41,559 Speaker 20: of pollution and contamination associated with that. 1491 01:09:41,800 --> 01:09:42,439 Speaker 7: Oh and by the. 1492 01:09:42,439 --> 01:09:45,080 Speaker 20: Way, there's an awful lot of bodies, all of which 1493 01:09:45,360 --> 01:09:50,719 Speaker 20: are going to be mangled into the morass, which also 1494 01:09:50,840 --> 01:09:54,920 Speaker 20: need to be repatriated to the families involved. So you've 1495 01:09:54,920 --> 01:09:58,080 Speaker 20: got an, as I say, an insanely complex task that's 1496 01:09:58,120 --> 01:09:59,599 Speaker 20: going to require decades. 1497 01:10:00,120 --> 01:10:02,439 Speaker 3: You reckon while they're down there, laying the sewerage pipes 1498 01:10:02,479 --> 01:10:05,000 Speaker 3: and stuff. Again, that they can shut up the tunnels 1499 01:10:05,000 --> 01:10:05,800 Speaker 3: that Hamas dug. 1500 01:10:07,439 --> 01:10:10,559 Speaker 20: Well, you know, to be honest, that that becomes a 1501 01:10:10,600 --> 01:10:15,479 Speaker 20: political issue, which is which is beyond the remit that 1502 01:10:15,520 --> 01:10:15,880 Speaker 20: I have. 1503 01:10:16,560 --> 01:10:21,200 Speaker 3: But can they like could they practically would they? Would 1504 01:10:21,240 --> 01:10:22,840 Speaker 3: they be able to Yeah, there's a tunnel, will shut 1505 01:10:22,840 --> 01:10:23,360 Speaker 3: that one down? 1506 01:10:24,439 --> 01:10:26,519 Speaker 20: Well, I mean, is it possible to do that sort 1507 01:10:26,560 --> 01:10:29,760 Speaker 20: of stuff? The answer is yeah, absolutely. That having been said, 1508 01:10:29,800 --> 01:10:33,400 Speaker 20: I mean the issue when you're digging, digging pipe holes 1509 01:10:33,400 --> 01:10:35,840 Speaker 20: for pipes and sewerage and all that sort of stuff, 1510 01:10:35,880 --> 01:10:39,599 Speaker 20: you know you're dealing with an absolute humanitarian need rather 1511 01:10:39,680 --> 01:10:44,560 Speaker 20: than the you know, the political oblique combat components associated 1512 01:10:44,640 --> 01:10:49,240 Speaker 20: with with these sorts of elements. But the but, as 1513 01:10:49,280 --> 01:10:51,519 Speaker 20: I say, you know that in terms of the amount 1514 01:10:51,560 --> 01:10:54,200 Speaker 20: of money that's going to be we are talking multi decades. 1515 01:10:54,560 --> 01:10:57,360 Speaker 7: We are talking billions and billions of dollars. 1516 01:10:57,040 --> 01:11:01,000 Speaker 20: Worth of investment that's going to take place to actually 1517 01:11:01,240 --> 01:11:05,400 Speaker 20: create a habitable domain for two point three million people 1518 01:11:05,400 --> 01:11:11,160 Speaker 20: who are sitting there, largely currently decanted into tents. And 1519 01:11:11,240 --> 01:11:15,040 Speaker 20: you know that's not a happy space because history shows 1520 01:11:15,600 --> 01:11:18,760 Speaker 20: that people who are living in these sorts of refugee 1521 01:11:18,760 --> 01:11:21,200 Speaker 20: camps and all the rest of it form the hardcore 1522 01:11:21,400 --> 01:11:23,479 Speaker 20: of the radicals that are going to come back in 1523 01:11:23,520 --> 01:11:27,400 Speaker 20: a few years time and reconstitute the entirety of the piece. 1524 01:11:27,720 --> 01:11:30,760 Speaker 3: So obviously decades to get the thing to be completed, 1525 01:11:30,800 --> 01:11:32,439 Speaker 3: But what about just to a point where it's a 1526 01:11:32,479 --> 01:11:35,120 Speaker 3: functioning liverable city. Again, how long does that. 1527 01:11:35,160 --> 01:11:38,639 Speaker 7: Have or that definition of liverable is a tough one. 1528 01:11:39,800 --> 01:11:41,840 Speaker 7: What it would suggest is you can. 1529 01:11:41,720 --> 01:11:45,439 Speaker 20: Actually make a relatively quick fix because Hon and some 1530 01:11:45,520 --> 01:11:50,240 Speaker 20: of the other the governmentals or quasi governmental organizations that 1531 01:11:50,280 --> 01:11:53,160 Speaker 20: have been in operation have kept kind of the lights 1532 01:11:53,200 --> 01:11:55,559 Speaker 20: on to a certain degree. You can do a three 1533 01:11:55,600 --> 01:11:58,200 Speaker 20: to six month fix which is going to make things livable. 1534 01:11:58,520 --> 01:12:02,479 Speaker 20: But it's you know, it's it's not a happy space. 1535 01:12:02,880 --> 01:12:07,639 Speaker 20: You're talking about barely livable, you know. You know, all 1536 01:12:07,640 --> 01:12:09,439 Speaker 20: you have to do is think in terms of two 1537 01:12:09,479 --> 01:12:11,920 Speaker 20: point three million people who all have to use the 1538 01:12:11,920 --> 01:12:15,439 Speaker 20: bathroom on a day to day basis, two point three 1539 01:12:15,479 --> 01:12:18,320 Speaker 20: million people who all require two or three liters of 1540 01:12:18,400 --> 01:12:21,920 Speaker 20: water per person per day as a basic requirement before 1541 01:12:21,920 --> 01:12:25,000 Speaker 20: we start talking about cooking. Two point three million people, 1542 01:12:25,120 --> 01:12:28,680 Speaker 20: all of which need to have, you know, fires to 1543 01:12:29,200 --> 01:12:32,240 Speaker 20: heat themselves during the oncoming winter and as well as 1544 01:12:32,280 --> 01:12:37,120 Speaker 20: all the things like, as I say, fires to cook 1545 01:12:37,160 --> 01:12:38,760 Speaker 20: on and all the rest of it. You have a 1546 01:12:38,880 --> 01:12:45,360 Speaker 20: humanitarian disaster of absolutely epic proportioned and you know there 1547 01:12:45,439 --> 01:12:50,879 Speaker 20: is a requirement unfortunately or fortunately unfortunately probably the wrong term. 1548 01:12:51,040 --> 01:12:54,120 Speaker 20: There is a requirement to be able to provide the 1549 01:12:56,160 --> 01:12:59,680 Speaker 20: necessary access to the logistical support that you know, the 1550 01:13:00,000 --> 01:13:03,680 Speaker 20: international community is desperate to provide and it needs to 1551 01:13:04,040 --> 01:13:07,320 Speaker 20: you know, it needs to happen immediately. And unfortunately, I 1552 01:13:07,360 --> 01:13:10,280 Speaker 20: don't think there's anybody is particularly optimistic about the future 1553 01:13:10,320 --> 01:13:11,040 Speaker 20: of this cease fire. 1554 01:13:11,320 --> 01:13:13,560 Speaker 3: John, thank you very much for your time. Appreciate it. 1555 01:13:13,640 --> 01:13:18,160 Speaker 3: John Tocki, the professor of construction Management at aut University. 1556 01:13:19,000 --> 01:13:21,640 Speaker 2: Hither du Clan Okay Berry's. 1557 01:13:21,280 --> 01:13:22,800 Speaker 3: Going to be that raped the political week that would 1558 01:13:22,800 --> 01:13:24,080 Speaker 3: shortly just want to give you their heads up on 1559 01:13:24,120 --> 01:13:25,840 Speaker 3: what's going on with the tickets. Right, So what you 1560 01:13:25,840 --> 01:13:27,120 Speaker 3: want to do if you're driving down the road and 1561 01:13:27,200 --> 01:13:29,360 Speaker 3: you want to avoid the ticketing, you know what to 1562 01:13:29,400 --> 01:13:31,640 Speaker 3: look for. What you now need to add to the 1563 01:13:31,640 --> 01:13:34,360 Speaker 3: things that you're looking for is a white SUV parked 1564 01:13:34,400 --> 01:13:36,519 Speaker 3: on the side of the road. Because this is what 1565 01:13:36,560 --> 01:13:39,439 Speaker 3: the NZTA is now using They've got thirty four of them. 1566 01:13:39,600 --> 01:13:40,720 Speaker 3: You know what I'm talking about. You know when you 1567 01:13:40,760 --> 01:13:42,280 Speaker 3: when you're driving down the road and you see the 1568 01:13:42,520 --> 01:13:45,479 Speaker 3: police van with the blacked out windows, the that you go, oh, yeah, 1569 01:13:45,479 --> 01:13:49,800 Speaker 3: that's that's taking that. That's that's a speed camera in there. 1570 01:13:49,960 --> 01:13:52,280 Speaker 3: That's basically got and all the police can with a 1571 01:13:52,280 --> 01:13:54,679 Speaker 3: little radar gun the same same thing. It's a white 1572 01:13:54,800 --> 01:13:56,560 Speaker 3: suv now looks like it's got a roof rack on 1573 01:13:56,600 --> 01:13:59,400 Speaker 3: the top or something. But anyway, they've been using them 1574 01:13:59,439 --> 01:14:03,080 Speaker 3: since May, and they're really really effective because you think 1575 01:14:03,080 --> 01:14:05,000 Speaker 3: it's just a normal civilian car, but it's not as 1576 01:14:05,040 --> 01:14:07,080 Speaker 3: pinging you for the speed. They have already just in 1577 01:14:07,120 --> 01:14:09,639 Speaker 3: the space since May I think, since I think, running 1578 01:14:09,640 --> 01:14:13,520 Speaker 3: four full months, have detected nearly seventy thousand defensive offenses 1579 01:14:13,880 --> 01:14:17,880 Speaker 3: and have generated nearly a million dollars in fines. Quarter past. 1580 01:14:18,360 --> 01:14:21,640 Speaker 1: It's the Heather Duper c Allen Drive Full Show podcast 1581 01:14:21,720 --> 01:14:24,639 Speaker 1: on my Heart Radio powered by Newstalk ZEBBI. 1582 01:14:25,760 --> 01:14:27,640 Speaker 3: Listen, if you were into the mining that's happening in 1583 01:14:27,680 --> 01:14:29,200 Speaker 3: the country at the moment, all may happen. I've got 1584 01:14:29,200 --> 01:14:30,599 Speaker 3: some pretty good news for you.

Barry Soper, Senior political correspondent, raps a political 1587 01:14:37,080 --> 01:14:38,840 Speaker 3: week that was for us, of course, Welcome back. 1588 01:14:38,680 --> 01:14:39,800 Speaker 11: Barry, Hello again, Heather. 1589 01:14:39,960 --> 01:14:42,599 Speaker 3: Do we know yet when Jimbolge's funeral is No. 1590 01:14:42,800 --> 01:14:45,880 Speaker 11: I've been trying to find out, but no one seems 1591 01:14:45,920 --> 01:14:48,160 Speaker 11: to really know. And I guess there's a number of 1592 01:14:48,200 --> 01:14:50,839 Speaker 11: things that they have to decide. I mean, Chris Luxon 1593 01:14:50,880 --> 01:14:54,719 Speaker 11: may want a bit of pomp and ceremony in relation 1594 01:14:54,880 --> 01:14:57,000 Speaker 11: to the former prime minister who was a prime minister 1595 01:14:57,120 --> 01:14:59,479 Speaker 11: for a long time, so there will be that, so 1596 01:14:59,520 --> 01:15:03,080 Speaker 11: that the other considerations. I would imagine the family is 1597 01:15:03,240 --> 01:15:07,280 Speaker 11: such a big family that they'll want something relatively private. 1598 01:15:07,360 --> 01:15:11,840 Speaker 11: But look, Jim Boulger, with that you liked or disliked him, 1599 01:15:12,080 --> 01:15:14,679 Speaker 11: he did like a bit of pomp and ceremony, and 1600 01:15:15,040 --> 01:15:17,519 Speaker 11: I think you know, if the country honored him in 1601 01:15:17,560 --> 01:15:21,920 Speaker 11: some way, he wouldn't be averse to it. But you know, 1602 01:15:22,320 --> 01:15:26,120 Speaker 11: it was a sad passing this week that I think 1603 01:15:26,240 --> 01:15:28,439 Speaker 11: we all knew how early he was, well some of 1604 01:15:28,520 --> 01:15:30,760 Speaker 11: us knew how early he was, and he had been 1605 01:15:30,800 --> 01:15:34,600 Speaker 11: for some time, so and it was amazing. Wasn't it 1606 01:15:34,600 --> 01:15:37,960 Speaker 11: that his whole family were there to see his passing 1607 01:15:38,000 --> 01:15:40,400 Speaker 11: and be with him, which would have been wonderful for 1608 01:15:40,520 --> 01:15:43,680 Speaker 11: Joan Bulger? And isn't it incredible you see all the 1609 01:15:43,720 --> 01:15:48,920 Speaker 11: outpouring for Joan Boulger because she and I don't say 1610 01:15:48,960 --> 01:15:53,519 Speaker 11: it unkindly long suffering, because these two were actually the 1611 01:15:53,600 --> 01:15:57,880 Speaker 11: couple that in politics that you can look at with 1612 01:15:57,960 --> 01:16:01,679 Speaker 11: great admiration that Joe I remember from time and time 1613 01:16:01,720 --> 01:16:04,719 Speaker 11: again on election campaign trials, will be in the front 1614 01:16:04,800 --> 01:16:09,479 Speaker 11: row watching Jim deliver the same speech night after night, 1615 01:16:09,520 --> 01:16:11,760 Speaker 11: and she would always be laughing in the right places. 1616 01:16:12,240 --> 01:16:14,920 Speaker 11: So she was as cheerleader if you like, as well. 1617 01:16:15,360 --> 01:16:18,600 Speaker 11: But over the past twenty four hours have been fascinated 1618 01:16:18,680 --> 01:16:22,240 Speaker 11: by some of those who have been speaking out reverentially 1619 01:16:22,720 --> 01:16:26,439 Speaker 11: about Jim Bolger. One was Jenny Shipley, you know, saying 1620 01:16:26,439 --> 01:16:28,759 Speaker 11: what a wonderful man he was. Well, if you're so wonderful, 1621 01:16:28,760 --> 01:16:30,040 Speaker 11: why did you knife them in the back? 1622 01:16:30,680 --> 01:16:32,080 Speaker 3: I mean, do you think they got on? 1623 01:16:32,680 --> 01:16:36,360 Speaker 11: No, initially they did. I think they you know, she 1624 01:16:36,439 --> 01:16:40,280 Speaker 11: was very senior. Was more recently No, I don't think. 1625 01:16:40,520 --> 01:16:43,320 Speaker 11: I don't think there was. I mean they had been 1626 01:16:43,360 --> 01:16:46,920 Speaker 11: seen publicly in various places. But bolge was a bit 1627 01:16:46,960 --> 01:16:52,320 Speaker 11: of a diplomat, get very angry. It's like public public 1628 01:16:52,560 --> 01:16:54,479 Speaker 11: you have to hear them, but privately I don't think 1629 01:16:54,479 --> 01:16:58,280 Speaker 11: it was. And similarly, Ruth Richardson, I heard her on 1630 01:16:58,320 --> 01:17:01,960 Speaker 11: with you yesterday sort of the picture that look was 1631 01:17:02,000 --> 01:17:04,679 Speaker 11: really her deciding when it was time to go because 1632 01:17:04,920 --> 01:17:09,400 Speaker 11: the business that she had set out to achieve had 1633 01:17:09,400 --> 01:17:12,639 Speaker 11: been achieved. Well, no, it didn't happen that way. There 1634 01:17:12,680 --> 01:17:14,679 Speaker 11: was no way that she didn't like the rug being 1635 01:17:14,720 --> 01:17:17,519 Speaker 11: pulled from beneath her in the finance role. She had 1636 01:17:17,560 --> 01:17:20,360 Speaker 11: become something of an embarrassment to the government and that's 1637 01:17:20,360 --> 01:17:23,280 Speaker 11: why there was a change there. So Bolgier was hard 1638 01:17:23,320 --> 01:17:26,760 Speaker 11: on some sides. But one thing I think he'll be 1639 01:17:26,840 --> 01:17:30,559 Speaker 11: remember for those of us who knew him quite well 1640 01:17:30,840 --> 01:17:33,800 Speaker 11: and I traveled with him throughout his Prime ministership and 1641 01:17:34,320 --> 01:17:36,519 Speaker 11: had many a drink in his office on the ninth 1642 01:17:36,560 --> 01:17:41,040 Speaker 11: floor with him and enjoyed his company, is that he 1643 01:17:41,160 --> 01:17:45,120 Speaker 11: was a very personable man. And I think evidence of 1644 01:17:45,160 --> 01:17:48,599 Speaker 11: that is the fact that he left school, you know, 1645 01:17:48,720 --> 01:17:53,760 Speaker 11: in his mid teens, never had any formal education, and 1646 01:17:54,040 --> 01:17:58,120 Speaker 11: went on to run the country relatively successfully. There were 1647 01:17:58,160 --> 01:18:01,840 Speaker 11: a few flaws, but he was a good bloke and 1648 01:18:01,880 --> 01:18:04,320 Speaker 11: I think that's what he will be remembered by those 1649 01:18:04,320 --> 01:18:04,800 Speaker 11: of us in. 1650 01:18:04,760 --> 01:18:06,600 Speaker 3: You do you think Jerry brown is going to be 1651 01:18:06,640 --> 01:18:09,000 Speaker 3: able to restore order. I mean it feels I think 1652 01:18:09,000 --> 01:18:10,559 Speaker 3: it's worth a goal, but it feels like it might 1653 01:18:10,600 --> 01:18:11,080 Speaker 3: be too late. 1654 01:18:11,800 --> 01:18:15,320 Speaker 11: No, it's the Business Committee that has to sit in. 1655 01:18:15,880 --> 01:18:19,439 Speaker 11: All parties are represented on that and the government will 1656 01:18:19,479 --> 01:18:22,160 Speaker 11: have a majority in Jerry Brownie will have a big 1657 01:18:22,200 --> 01:18:25,960 Speaker 11: say on that. But I think there is a general 1658 01:18:26,000 --> 01:18:31,519 Speaker 11: consensus around politicians, and particularly those in the National Party 1659 01:18:31,680 --> 01:18:35,320 Speaker 11: Act and New Zealand. First, it's all the others, not 1660 01:18:35,439 --> 01:18:40,080 Speaker 11: so much Labor, but the rebel in the Maldi Party 1661 01:18:40,600 --> 01:18:44,759 Speaker 11: and the Greens. They are none too keen on cleaning 1662 01:18:44,840 --> 01:18:48,040 Speaker 11: up the Act. And I heard the ridiculous argument of 1663 01:18:48,120 --> 01:18:53,120 Speaker 11: Ricardo Mendez March saying that you know, a tie is 1664 01:18:53,120 --> 01:18:55,639 Speaker 11: not going to change the behavior. He misses the whole point. 1665 01:18:56,040 --> 01:18:56,599 Speaker 3: It's not a. 1666 01:18:56,640 --> 01:19:01,120 Speaker 11: Tie changing behavior. It's respect for the organization. And you know, 1667 01:19:01,160 --> 01:19:04,760 Speaker 11: I'm one who does respect the organization of Parliament. And 1668 01:19:04,800 --> 01:19:07,280 Speaker 11: I think if you let standards slip like that, as 1669 01:19:07,320 --> 01:19:10,800 Speaker 11: Trevor Mallard did when he was a speaker, then there 1670 01:19:10,840 --> 01:19:13,439 Speaker 11: is it's very hard to come back. So it's only 1671 01:19:13,479 --> 01:19:15,800 Speaker 11: been a few years. I don't think it's too late 1672 01:19:15,840 --> 01:19:17,000 Speaker 11: to retrieve the situation. 1673 01:19:17,160 --> 01:19:18,639 Speaker 3: Listen, I haven't got long, but I want to test 1674 01:19:18,680 --> 01:19:21,639 Speaker 3: you on this, Okay. So there's still pressure on Luxe's leadership. 1675 01:19:21,640 --> 01:19:23,880 Speaker 3: It's mounting. We've now got an air apparent, which is 1676 01:19:23,960 --> 01:19:27,600 Speaker 3: Christmas ship. Do you think that Luxeon has gone in 1677 01:19:27,640 --> 01:19:30,080 Speaker 3: twenty twenty seven, a year after the election, or is 1678 01:19:30,120 --> 01:19:31,240 Speaker 3: he gone before Christmas? 1679 01:19:31,360 --> 01:19:31,439 Speaker 13: This? 1680 01:19:31,640 --> 01:19:35,800 Speaker 11: Yeah, he's not gone before Christmas twenty seven. Well, whether 1681 01:19:35,840 --> 01:19:38,479 Speaker 11: he's gone in twenty twenty seven is another matter as well. 1682 01:19:38,960 --> 01:19:43,760 Speaker 11: I think it's a mood thing, Heather. And when the 1683 01:19:43,880 --> 01:19:49,559 Speaker 11: National Party starts looking better next year, and I'm almost 1684 01:19:49,600 --> 01:19:51,840 Speaker 11: certain it will. And if you look at all the economists, 1685 01:19:52,120 --> 01:19:54,400 Speaker 11: they are all saying there's going to be growth next year, 1686 01:19:54,439 --> 01:20:00,200 Speaker 11: and quite good growth, that always increases the enthusiasm some 1687 01:20:00,280 --> 01:20:03,040 Speaker 11: of the public. And I would think that you'll find 1688 01:20:03,080 --> 01:20:04,720 Speaker 11: and I know I'm on record of saying that to you, 1689 01:20:04,760 --> 01:20:07,400 Speaker 11: and you're going to pay me a bet that Chris 1690 01:20:07,439 --> 01:20:09,200 Speaker 11: Luxon will be here while I'm truly. 1691 01:20:09,160 --> 01:20:11,280 Speaker 3: Okay, So we'll say about that bet, Barry, thank you 1692 01:20:11,360 --> 01:20:14,040 Speaker 3: very much. Barry Soper, Senior political correspondent, rapping the Political Week. 1693 01:20:14,040 --> 01:20:15,640 Speaker 3: It was at six twenty three. 1694 01:20:15,960 --> 01:20:18,679 Speaker 1: If it's to do with money, it matters to you. 1695 01:20:19,040 --> 01:20:22,599 Speaker 1: The Business Hour with Heather Dup c Ellen and Maz 1696 01:20:22,920 --> 01:20:26,320 Speaker 1: for insurance Investments and Hueye Safer and you're in good 1697 01:20:26,360 --> 01:20:27,599 Speaker 1: hands news talk. 1698 01:20:27,520 --> 01:20:30,599 Speaker 3: Sa'd be Heather.

He's just leave it alone. 1700 01:20:33,320 --> 01:20:38,439 Speaker 3: He's walked into a disaster. Well I get fine, all right, Okay, 1701 01:20:38,479 --> 01:20:42,040 Speaker 3: free speech, free speech, clamping down on people, just have 1702 01:20:42,600 --> 01:20:45,160 Speaker 3: that doesn't matter. That's a terrible sentence. Just go have 1703 01:20:45,200 --> 01:20:47,559 Speaker 3: a look, have a look at the reportage in the post. 1704 01:20:47,600 --> 01:20:50,240 Speaker 3: That's all I'm saying to you. I'm simply just repeating 1705 01:20:50,240 --> 01:20:52,680 Speaker 3: what I'm hearing. Okay, it's not me, it's them. Six 1706 01:20:52,800 --> 01:20:55,639 Speaker 3: twenty six. Now there is an ossie minor called Uvra 1707 01:20:56,479 --> 01:20:58,560 Speaker 3: who is just listed on the z X. It's a 1708 01:20:58,600 --> 01:21:01,679 Speaker 3: secondary secondary listening told shareholders this is the thing. Get 1709 01:21:01,680 --> 01:21:04,400 Speaker 3: a load of this. New Zealand is the most attractive 1710 01:21:04,439 --> 01:21:08,240 Speaker 3: country for mining investment in the world. So this is 1711 01:21:08,280 --> 01:21:11,040 Speaker 3: a presentation to the shareholders. It included a chart which 1712 01:21:11,200 --> 01:21:14,280 Speaker 3: used data from an investment ranker called Fraser Institute. Now 1713 01:21:14,360 --> 01:21:16,720 Speaker 3: Fraser Institute is a group of people who survey the 1714 01:21:16,760 --> 01:21:19,600 Speaker 3: mining companies across Australasia and they want to assess the 1715 01:21:19,640 --> 01:21:22,840 Speaker 3: attractiveness of various places to invest and they base it 1716 01:21:22,880 --> 01:21:26,880 Speaker 3: on mineral potential but also government policies. We New Zealand 1717 01:21:26,960 --> 01:21:29,879 Speaker 3: edge out Western Australia. We are ahead of South Australia 1718 01:21:29,960 --> 01:21:33,040 Speaker 3: and Queensland by a lot. They are calling New Zealand 1719 01:21:33,040 --> 01:21:36,160 Speaker 3: the Land of the long Gold Opportunity. The company's shares 1720 01:21:36,160 --> 01:21:38,280 Speaker 3: opened at twenty eight cents yesterday and by the time 1721 01:21:38,400 --> 01:21:39,600 Speaker 3: by the time it closed for the day, it was 1722 01:21:39,600 --> 01:21:42,400 Speaker 3: the top gainer, up sixteen point zero seven percent. 1723 01:21:43,200 --> 01:21:46,040 Speaker 2: There's no business like show business. 1724 01:21:49,040 --> 01:21:52,840 Speaker 3: Yes, this is the Matrix music. One of Hollywood's biggest superstars, 1725 01:21:52,960 --> 01:21:55,240 Speaker 3: Keanu Reeves, has revealed he had to change his name 1726 01:21:55,400 --> 01:21:57,559 Speaker 3: when he first came to Hollywood. Kiano was on a 1727 01:21:57,600 --> 01:22:00,800 Speaker 3: podcast with Taylor Swift's boyfriend Tree was Kelsey when he 1728 01:22:00,840 --> 01:22:03,880 Speaker 3: talked about his welcome to Hollywood moment twenty years old. 1729 01:22:04,000 --> 01:22:09,240 Speaker 21: I drove in my car to Los Angeles, got out 1730 01:22:09,320 --> 01:22:12,720 Speaker 21: of my car and my manager said, we want to 1731 01:22:12,800 --> 01:22:16,360 Speaker 21: change your name and so that's like, oh, welcome to Hollywood. 1732 01:22:16,439 --> 01:22:17,719 Speaker 7: My middle name is Charles. 1733 01:22:17,720 --> 01:22:20,400 Speaker 21: So I was like Chuck, and I grew up on 1734 01:22:20,439 --> 01:22:23,920 Speaker 21: a street called Spadina, Chuck Spadina, and then I was 1735 01:22:24,000 --> 01:22:25,640 Speaker 21: like something Templeton. 1736 01:22:25,800 --> 01:22:28,200 Speaker 2: But then I was just like So then I. 1737 01:22:28,160 --> 01:22:34,720 Speaker 22: Became Casey Reeds Casey Reed credited as Casey Reeds. 1738 01:22:34,960 --> 01:22:37,200 Speaker 3: Now Ksey Reeves obviously didn't. 1739 01:22:36,960 --> 01:22:39,600 Speaker 22: Stick, and then and then I couldn't do it. So 1740 01:22:39,640 --> 01:22:42,240 Speaker 22: then I would be auditions and they'd go Casey Reeves 1741 01:22:42,240 --> 01:22:44,000 Speaker 22: and I'd be like, I wouldn't even answer. 1742 01:22:44,240 --> 01:22:47,439 Speaker 16: Six months later I was like, I'm not doing this. 1743 01:22:47,840 --> 01:22:50,000 Speaker 3: Good on him, Keano, great name. Anyway, This is not 1744 01:22:50,120 --> 01:22:55,760 Speaker 3: super uncommon.

Peter Lewis Asia Business correspondenters 1765 01:24:07,680 --> 01:24:10,680 Speaker 3: with us Allo Peter. Good evening, Heather, have you got 1766 01:24:10,680 --> 01:24:11,719 Speaker 3: a real name to reveal? 1767 01:24:12,800 --> 01:24:15,840 Speaker 14: I can't possibly tell you. It doesn't involve bottoms. 1768 01:24:15,360 --> 01:24:18,360 Speaker 3: Though, thank god. Now, what has China had to say 1769 01:24:18,360 --> 01:24:20,559 Speaker 3: about Donald Trump's weird tearaff tweets? 1770 01:24:21,560 --> 01:24:25,400 Speaker 14: Well, it's really kicked off this week. They're firing daily 1771 01:24:25,680 --> 01:24:30,160 Speaker 14: threats at each other and really increasing the rhetoric. I mean, 1772 01:24:30,240 --> 01:24:32,200 Speaker 14: it depends upon who you ask as to who's at 1773 01:24:32,200 --> 01:24:35,400 Speaker 14: fault here, because both sides say the other side is 1774 01:24:35,439 --> 01:24:38,360 Speaker 14: to blame. Both sides say it's up to the other 1775 01:24:38,479 --> 01:24:42,559 Speaker 14: side to take the next steps to defuse this and 1776 01:24:42,600 --> 01:24:46,280 Speaker 14: to in effects back down. What China has done here 1777 01:24:46,320 --> 01:24:49,760 Speaker 14: is it's really got under Donald Trump's skin over these 1778 01:24:49,880 --> 01:24:54,760 Speaker 14: bands on rare earths. These are important elements that are 1779 01:24:54,880 --> 01:24:59,400 Speaker 14: used on vital in fact, for things like computer chips, smartphones, 1780 01:24:59,479 --> 01:25:05,000 Speaker 14: fighter and so on. And they've increased their restrictions export 1781 01:25:05,040 --> 01:25:07,679 Speaker 14: restrictions on them, which is going to mean that even 1782 01:25:07,720 --> 01:25:10,360 Speaker 14: if a product has just a tiny amount of one 1783 01:25:10,400 --> 01:25:13,040 Speaker 14: of these rare earths, it's going to need a license 1784 01:25:13,640 --> 01:25:17,240 Speaker 14: from China, and that includes foreign companies as well. So 1785 01:25:17,320 --> 01:25:22,720 Speaker 14: this is sort of extra territorial jurisdiction here. And the 1786 01:25:22,760 --> 01:25:26,200 Speaker 14: guy who's really been increasing the threats is Scott Besson, 1787 01:25:26,320 --> 01:25:31,960 Speaker 14: the US Treasury Secretary. He's basically saying that China's decoupling 1788 01:25:32,040 --> 01:25:34,360 Speaker 14: from the rest of the world, and the rest of 1789 01:25:34,360 --> 01:25:37,400 Speaker 14: the world is going to come to the US's support. 1790 01:25:37,880 --> 01:25:42,120 Speaker 14: He says, We're going to use allies in Asia to 1791 01:25:42,200 --> 01:25:47,000 Speaker 14: try and resist what he basically says is blackmail. But 1792 01:25:47,080 --> 01:25:49,080 Speaker 14: of course these are the very same allies that Donald 1793 01:25:49,080 --> 01:25:51,400 Speaker 14: Trump has gone and blackmailed over the last few months 1794 01:25:51,479 --> 01:25:54,280 Speaker 14: and slapped huge tariffs on. So I'm not too sure 1795 01:25:54,600 --> 01:25:56,759 Speaker 14: how some of these are going to feel about now 1796 01:25:57,240 --> 01:26:01,240 Speaker 14: being asked to come to Donald Trump's rescue you on this. 1797 01:26:02,120 --> 01:26:06,559 Speaker 14: Besson's also described one of China's top negotiators as an 1798 01:26:06,680 --> 01:26:11,080 Speaker 14: unhinged wolf warrior. This is how bad the rhetorica's got 1799 01:26:11,479 --> 01:26:15,320 Speaker 14: between the two sides. I think Beijing is rather amused 1800 01:26:15,320 --> 01:26:18,479 Speaker 14: by all of this. They realize that they've got a 1801 01:26:18,520 --> 01:26:22,880 Speaker 14: really strong card here to play. They realize that they've 1802 01:26:22,920 --> 01:26:27,000 Speaker 14: really irked sort of Washington and Donald Trump over this, 1803 01:26:27,680 --> 01:26:29,439 Speaker 14: and I don't think they intend to back down. I 1804 01:26:29,439 --> 01:26:32,479 Speaker 14: think they intend to carry on doing what they're doing. 1805 01:26:32,560 --> 01:26:35,200 Speaker 14: So it doesn't mean that things are looking very good 1806 01:26:35,479 --> 01:26:38,559 Speaker 14: for a summits between Donald Trump and President She at 1807 01:26:38,600 --> 01:26:39,320 Speaker 14: the end of the month. 1808 01:26:39,680 --> 01:26:42,439 Speaker 3: Perhaps not. Now, what is going on with Japan's first 1809 01:26:42,439 --> 01:26:44,360 Speaker 3: female PM? Why might she not happen? 1810 01:26:45,640 --> 01:26:49,320 Speaker 14: Well, I think the problem is she doesn't have a majority. 1811 01:26:49,400 --> 01:26:53,040 Speaker 14: But the reason why we have even considering a new 1812 01:26:53,160 --> 01:26:57,200 Speaker 14: PM is because the Liberal Democratic Party lost its majority 1813 01:26:57,240 --> 01:27:00,320 Speaker 14: in both the upper House and the lower House. So 1814 01:27:00,320 --> 01:27:03,120 Speaker 14: in order to get elected as Prime Minister at the 1815 01:27:03,200 --> 01:27:06,120 Speaker 14: end of the month, she needs the support of the 1816 01:27:06,120 --> 01:27:10,120 Speaker 14: opposition parties. Now, the traditional party that has always helped 1817 01:27:10,160 --> 01:27:13,839 Speaker 14: the OLDPS Comito. They've been the partner for the OLDP 1818 01:27:14,040 --> 01:27:17,680 Speaker 14: for really the past twenty five years, but that coalition 1819 01:27:17,760 --> 01:27:21,040 Speaker 14: fell apart a few days ago. Comito has said they're 1820 01:27:21,080 --> 01:27:27,120 Speaker 14: not going to support the OLDP anymore or Takeiichi either, 1821 01:27:27,560 --> 01:27:31,559 Speaker 14: so she needs to find some other parties to help her. 1822 01:27:31,640 --> 01:27:35,560 Speaker 14: She's looking at a smaller populist party based in Osaka 1823 01:27:35,720 --> 01:27:40,120 Speaker 14: known as Issue to help her. In the meantime, the 1824 01:27:40,160 --> 01:27:43,519 Speaker 14: other opposition parties are trying to see if they can 1825 01:27:43,600 --> 01:27:48,960 Speaker 14: come together around an alternative candidate that could in effect 1826 01:27:49,640 --> 01:27:54,480 Speaker 14: sort of stand up and dethrone, if you like, Takeichi, 1827 01:27:54,760 --> 01:27:57,360 Speaker 14: and if they can come up with a candidate, then 1828 01:27:57,400 --> 01:28:01,440 Speaker 14: they will actually win. The problem is these opposition parties 1829 01:28:01,640 --> 01:28:05,400 Speaker 14: are very divided. They don't traditionally work very well together. 1830 01:28:05,479 --> 01:28:09,040 Speaker 14: They have widely divergent policies and they've never in the 1831 01:28:09,120 --> 01:28:12,040 Speaker 14: past been able to do this. And what normally happens 1832 01:28:12,080 --> 01:28:14,400 Speaker 14: is one that peels off and goes and votes with 1833 01:28:14,479 --> 01:28:17,599 Speaker 14: the LDP or abstains, and as a result, the LDP 1834 01:28:18,120 --> 01:28:22,200 Speaker 14: gets its candidate through. But if they can find an 1835 01:28:22,240 --> 01:28:26,840 Speaker 14: alternative candidate who can unite them, then they will take 1836 01:28:27,160 --> 01:28:29,320 Speaker 14: They will take the premiership and they will be able 1837 01:28:29,320 --> 01:28:32,240 Speaker 14: to nominate whoever it is as the candidate to be 1838 01:28:32,240 --> 01:28:33,160 Speaker 14: the next Prime minister. 1839 01:28:33,680 --> 01:28:35,519 Speaker 3: Interesting, we'll see how it plays out. Peter, as always, 1840 01:28:35,560 --> 01:28:37,080 Speaker 3: it's lovely to talk to you. Thank you so much. 1841 01:28:37,120 --> 01:28:41,720 Speaker 3: Peter Lewis Asia Business correspondent. Hither do for l then 1842 01:28:41,800 --> 01:28:45,599 Speaker 3: Diesel as in like six even diesel muscle than diesel. 1843 01:28:45,680 --> 01:28:51,160 Speaker 3: His real name is Mark Mark Vincent. The diesel thing 1844 01:28:51,240 --> 01:28:52,880 Speaker 3: is just completely made up by the sounds of things. 1845 01:28:52,920 --> 01:28:58,559 Speaker 3: Tom Cruise, his real name is Thomas Cruz Mepatha the Fourth. 1846 01:28:59,320 --> 01:29:00,880 Speaker 3: I always wonder do you know what I always wonder 1847 01:29:00,920 --> 01:29:03,200 Speaker 3: about stuff like this? Do you think that his Suri 1848 01:29:03,400 --> 01:29:05,840 Speaker 3: called Suri Mapitha, is that her real name? It's like 1849 01:29:05,920 --> 01:29:09,439 Speaker 3: she just carries on the sort of pretense and goes, yeah, 1850 01:29:09,479 --> 01:29:13,400 Speaker 3: I'm Suri Cruz, when really her passport says Suri Mapitha. 1851 01:29:13,840 --> 01:29:17,439 Speaker 3: What a name. Judy Garland was born Francis ethel Gumm. 1852 01:29:17,640 --> 01:29:19,759 Speaker 3: You could see why she changed her name. And Helen 1853 01:29:19,800 --> 01:29:21,640 Speaker 3: Mirren I don't even know if I can pronounce this 1854 01:29:22,280 --> 01:29:27,759 Speaker 3: Elena Lydia Mironoff, which is not anything like Helen Mirren? 1855 01:29:27,840 --> 01:29:32,719 Speaker 3: Is it now actually Martin? You know, because it's probably 1856 01:29:32,800 --> 01:29:34,479 Speaker 3: actually that they are running a couple of names at 1857 01:29:34,479 --> 01:29:36,439 Speaker 3: the same time, because if you think about Martin Sheen, 1858 01:29:36,760 --> 01:29:39,280 Speaker 3: his name is really Martin Estevez, isn't it. And then 1859 01:29:39,320 --> 01:29:40,760 Speaker 3: one of the kids came out there est what was 1860 01:29:40,800 --> 01:29:44,559 Speaker 3: his name? What was the Esterez boy's name, Emilio. One 1861 01:29:44,560 --> 01:29:46,720 Speaker 3: of the brothers was called Emilio Estevez and the other 1862 01:29:46,760 --> 01:29:48,840 Speaker 3: one was called Charlie Sheen. So one of them took 1863 01:29:48,880 --> 01:29:51,280 Speaker 3: the actual real life name and went with that, and 1864 01:29:51,280 --> 01:29:52,800 Speaker 3: then the other one took the fake screen name and 1865 01:29:52,840 --> 01:29:55,120 Speaker 3: went with that. So yeah, there you go. Anyway, the 1866 01:29:55,120 --> 01:29:58,479 Speaker 3: plus sized models thing didn't last at all, not very 1867 01:29:58,479 --> 01:30:01,000 Speaker 3: long at all. The fashion and it now turns out, 1868 01:30:01,000 --> 01:30:04,439 Speaker 3: according to the latest spring Summer twenty twenty six fashion weeks, 1869 01:30:04,560 --> 01:30:07,599 Speaker 3: has gone back to using really skinny models. So Vogue 1870 01:30:07,600 --> 01:30:09,640 Speaker 3: Business has uncovered this. They crunched the numbers. They went 1871 01:30:09,640 --> 01:30:12,519 Speaker 3: to the catwalk shows in New York and London, Milan 1872 01:30:12,560 --> 01:30:14,240 Speaker 3: and Paris, and they had to look at, you know, 1873 01:30:14,280 --> 01:30:16,120 Speaker 3: what size the women were, and then they collected all 1874 01:30:16,160 --> 01:30:20,360 Speaker 3: the data. Ninety seven percent of the models were size 1875 01:30:20,360 --> 01:30:22,880 Speaker 3: four to eight as in our size four to eight, 1876 01:30:22,920 --> 01:30:24,719 Speaker 3: as in like you and I are wearing a ten, 1877 01:30:25,360 --> 01:30:28,120 Speaker 3: they're wearing a four. That's how skinny they are. Ninety 1878 01:30:28,240 --> 01:30:30,960 Speaker 3: seven percent of them four to eight two percent were 1879 01:30:31,000 --> 01:30:33,959 Speaker 3: normal sized people between the size of ten and sixteen. 1880 01:30:34,360 --> 01:30:37,240 Speaker 3: Only zero point nine percent were plus size models. So 1881 01:30:37,280 --> 01:30:40,320 Speaker 3: people who are women who are eighteen size eighteen plus 1882 01:30:41,000 --> 01:30:44,360 Speaker 3: this I'm telling you this because this will come as 1883 01:30:44,400 --> 01:30:46,599 Speaker 3: absolutely no surprise to you, and it is yet again 1884 01:30:46,680 --> 01:30:49,360 Speaker 3: an example, I would say, of people trying to do 1885 01:30:49,400 --> 01:30:51,679 Speaker 3: the thing, to do the right thing. But the fact 1886 01:30:51,680 --> 01:30:53,840 Speaker 3: of the matter is, let's be honest about it. If 1887 01:30:54,240 --> 01:30:56,640 Speaker 3: you're skinny, the clothes look better on you, right, So 1888 01:30:56,920 --> 01:30:58,720 Speaker 3: if you look like you've been doing heroin all day, 1889 01:30:58,840 --> 01:31:01,080 Speaker 3: the clothes look awesome on you. It's not grey, it's 1890 01:31:01,120 --> 01:31:03,280 Speaker 3: not healthy, but the clothes are awesome on you. And 1891 01:31:03,280 --> 01:31:04,800 Speaker 3: they were always going to go back to it, weren't they. 1892 01:31:04,840 --> 01:31:06,639 Speaker 3: I Mean, we tried the plus sized thing for how long, 1893 01:31:06,880 --> 01:31:10,360 Speaker 3: like fifteen years dead after fifteen years, sixteen away. 1894 01:31:10,600 --> 01:31:14,200 Speaker 2: Think whether it's the macro microbe or just playing economics. 1895 01:31:14,280 --> 01:31:17,519 Speaker 1: It's all on the Business Hour with Heather Duplicy, Allen 1896 01:31:17,640 --> 01:31:21,400 Speaker 1: can to Mars for insurance Investments and Kiwye Safer. 1897 01:31:21,640 --> 01:31:22,599 Speaker 2: You're in good hands. 1898 01:31:22,960 --> 01:31:29,840 Speaker 3: Use talks behither you're not a ten, mauz oh, mace, 1899 01:31:30,320 --> 01:31:33,799 Speaker 3: this is not no, This is not no. Are you married? 1900 01:31:33,920 --> 01:31:35,920 Speaker 3: You don't have this conversation, because this could be read 1901 01:31:35,960 --> 01:31:38,280 Speaker 3: either way. It could be either you're not a teen, 1902 01:31:38,360 --> 01:31:40,960 Speaker 3: either you're you're definitely are six Are you you're skinny 1903 01:31:41,040 --> 01:31:43,840 Speaker 3: as like you've been doing heroin all day long?

Gavin Gray, UK 1908 01:31:53,280 --> 01:31:57,240 Speaker 3: correspondence with US Hello, Gavin, either have explain to me 1909 01:31:57,280 --> 01:31:59,080 Speaker 3: why these football fans have been banned. 1910 01:32:00,520 --> 01:32:03,960 Speaker 23: This is because the authorities here are saying they cannot 1911 01:32:04,000 --> 01:32:07,040 Speaker 23: guarantee that they are going to be safe. These are 1912 01:32:07,840 --> 01:32:11,960 Speaker 23: Israeli fans. Maccabi Tel Aviv is their football team. They're 1913 01:32:12,000 --> 01:32:14,400 Speaker 23: due to attend a football match in the Midlands here 1914 01:32:14,439 --> 01:32:17,639 Speaker 23: in the UK at Aston Villa. The match is due 1915 01:32:17,680 --> 01:32:20,759 Speaker 23: to take place in a couple of weeks time, and 1916 01:32:20,880 --> 01:32:24,360 Speaker 23: the reason that there is such anger about this is 1917 01:32:24,400 --> 01:32:28,400 Speaker 23: that that area of the Midlands around aston Villa Birmingham 1918 01:32:28,800 --> 01:32:34,120 Speaker 23: has a very very high Muslim population, and that's why 1919 01:32:34,360 --> 01:32:38,200 Speaker 23: the Conservative leader is saying this is a national disgrace 1920 01:32:38,560 --> 01:32:41,479 Speaker 23: to say to the Israeli fans that you can't come 1921 01:32:41,520 --> 01:32:45,599 Speaker 23: because we can't keep you safe, suggesting therefore, and I quote, 1922 01:32:46,320 --> 01:32:49,720 Speaker 23: that this is parts of Britain that Jews simply cannot go, 1923 01:32:50,320 --> 01:32:52,400 Speaker 23: and kemy bed Not, the leader of the Opposition, is 1924 01:32:52,439 --> 01:32:55,559 Speaker 23: demanding the Prime Minister step in to reverse the decision. 1925 01:32:55,880 --> 01:32:58,640 Speaker 23: The Prime Minister himself has criticized the move, saying we 1926 01:32:58,680 --> 01:33:01,439 Speaker 23: will not tolerate add decemim in our streets. But that 1927 01:33:01,560 --> 01:33:03,840 Speaker 23: is a phrase he's been trotting out over all the 1928 01:33:03,920 --> 01:33:07,439 Speaker 23: last few weeks and the violence against Jews and the 1929 01:33:07,479 --> 01:33:11,360 Speaker 23: attack outside the synagogue you'll remember a couple of weeks back. 1930 01:33:11,439 --> 01:33:15,240 Speaker 23: So there has been current intelligence on previous incidents where 1931 01:33:15,320 --> 01:33:19,120 Speaker 23: Tel Aviv Maccabi Tel Aviv fans have traveled. In one 1932 01:33:19,160 --> 01:33:22,320 Speaker 23: particular instance to Amsterdam, there was a lot of violence there, 1933 01:33:22,400 --> 01:33:26,280 Speaker 23: sixty people arrested. But this safety advisory group they issue 1934 01:33:26,320 --> 01:33:30,439 Speaker 23: safety certificates for matches, and they said, no, you know, 1935 01:33:30,560 --> 01:33:33,680 Speaker 23: we can't keep people safe. So we're saying that no 1936 01:33:33,840 --> 01:33:37,840 Speaker 23: traveling fans should be permitted to this match. The group 1937 01:33:38,000 --> 01:33:41,080 Speaker 23: is chaired by the Council Leader, Head of Resilience. The 1938 01:33:41,120 --> 01:33:45,160 Speaker 23: Safety Advisory Group made up of officials, local authority emergency 1939 01:33:45,200 --> 01:33:48,240 Speaker 23: responders including the police and the event organizers. But the 1940 01:33:48,280 --> 01:33:52,240 Speaker 23: idea that there is a football match here that Israeli 1941 01:33:52,240 --> 01:33:54,840 Speaker 23: people Jewish people cannot attend because of the fear they 1942 01:33:54,880 --> 01:33:58,200 Speaker 23: won't be safe, I think shows the current state of play. 1943 01:33:58,640 --> 01:34:02,439 Speaker 23: The Reform uklee Nigel Pharaoh says the move takes racial 1944 01:34:02,439 --> 01:34:04,799 Speaker 23: discrimination to a whole new level. 1945 01:34:04,880 --> 01:34:09,040 Speaker 3: It is so unbelievably, said Gevin. Is it possible for 1946 01:34:09,160 --> 01:34:12,200 Speaker 3: Charles if he wanted to to strip Andrew's titles. 1947 01:34:13,560 --> 01:34:16,240 Speaker 23: Yes, it is, and many people think he is showing 1948 01:34:16,320 --> 01:34:19,280 Speaker 23: himself to be a weak monarch by not doing so. 1949 01:34:19,479 --> 01:34:22,519 Speaker 23: But let's not forget that behind all of this it 1950 01:34:22,680 --> 01:34:26,559 Speaker 23: is his brother and this is a family Still. However, 1951 01:34:27,160 --> 01:34:32,120 Speaker 23: many people see these ongoing revelations and claims and allegations 1952 01:34:32,280 --> 01:34:36,479 Speaker 23: about Prince Andrew to just be the gift that keeps 1953 01:34:36,520 --> 01:34:39,719 Speaker 23: giving if you're a journalist or you like reading about 1954 01:34:39,720 --> 01:34:42,920 Speaker 23: these things. Prince Andrew, of course well known for his 1955 01:34:43,040 --> 01:34:48,080 Speaker 23: links to the late disgraced sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, of course, 1956 01:34:48,160 --> 01:34:53,679 Speaker 23: also meeting a Chinese representative three times. It was said 1957 01:34:53,960 --> 01:34:57,080 Speaker 23: in quick succession in the UK and Andrew. 1958 01:34:56,680 --> 01:34:58,880 Speaker 3: Believed to be a quote useful. 1959 01:34:58,520 --> 01:35:01,920 Speaker 23: Idiot for the Chinese to get to know in order 1960 01:35:01,960 --> 01:35:06,439 Speaker 23: to invagal themselves in high areas of power, in order 1961 01:35:06,560 --> 01:35:10,080 Speaker 23: eventually to spy for the Chinese. In the UK, it's 1962 01:35:10,120 --> 01:35:12,720 Speaker 23: said this comes at a very sensitive time, at the 1963 01:35:12,760 --> 01:35:16,599 Speaker 23: collapse of a case against two people who allegedly spied 1964 01:35:16,720 --> 01:35:21,200 Speaker 23: for China, quite simply because senior officials weren't willing to 1965 01:35:21,240 --> 01:35:25,439 Speaker 23: say that China can be an enemy state, whereas we 1966 01:35:25,520 --> 01:35:27,799 Speaker 23: heard yesterday from the head of OMI five the Security 1967 01:35:27,800 --> 01:35:31,280 Speaker 23: Service saying well, China most definitely is, and even last 1968 01:35:31,320 --> 01:35:33,920 Speaker 23: week we had to step up in order to close 1969 01:35:33,960 --> 01:35:38,280 Speaker 23: down what was a potential attack from Chinese nationals. So 1970 01:35:38,600 --> 01:35:41,000 Speaker 23: it is a mess, and it's one that Prince Andrew's 1971 01:35:41,040 --> 01:35:42,720 Speaker 23: being caught up in, and as I said, is the 1972 01:35:42,760 --> 01:35:45,680 Speaker 23: gift that keeps going on and on and is a 1973 01:35:45,720 --> 01:35:49,160 Speaker 23: further embarrassment to the King and frankly to the rest 1974 01:35:49,200 --> 01:35:52,320 Speaker 23: of the royal family. We already know that Prince William 1975 01:35:52,479 --> 01:35:54,759 Speaker 23: frankly wants very little to do with his uncle. 1976 01:35:54,840 --> 01:35:56,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, I can quite understand why. Hey, thank you very much. 1977 01:35:56,840 --> 01:36:00,600 Speaker 3: Gevin appreciated Thiskevin Gray a UK corresponding, And it's not 1978 01:36:00,640 --> 01:36:02,320 Speaker 3: too long before we're going to find out what's happening 1979 01:36:02,320 --> 01:36:04,680 Speaker 3: with Liam Lawson. A Red Bull's apparently going to let 1980 01:36:04,720 --> 01:36:06,559 Speaker 3: him know what his future with F one is by 1981 01:36:06,560 --> 01:36:09,200 Speaker 3: the end of the month, which is what a couple 1982 01:36:09,280 --> 01:36:10,960 Speaker 3: of weeks left. Eight away from seven. 1983 01:36:12,000 --> 01:36:15,280 Speaker 1: It's the Heather Toople see Alan Drive Full Show podcast 1984 01:36:15,400 --> 01:36:19,920 Speaker 1: on iHeartRadio powered by Newstalk ZB Here the Jack Tame. 1985 01:36:20,040 --> 01:36:22,479 Speaker 3: This is read who takes over from Simon dallow when 1986 01:36:22,520 --> 01:36:24,719 Speaker 3: he quits next year. Jack Tame's got no chance against 1987 01:36:24,720 --> 01:36:28,160 Speaker 3: Tony Marsh. Do you remember Tony Marsh? What a blast 1988 01:36:28,200 --> 01:36:28,879 Speaker 3: from the past? 1989 01:36:29,320 --> 01:36:30,080 Speaker 4: In fact you could. 1990 01:36:30,479 --> 01:36:32,799 Speaker 3: I mean, like when you think about it, Tony Marsh, 1991 01:36:32,840 --> 01:36:34,920 Speaker 3: and then you think about all the other people who've 1992 01:36:34,960 --> 01:36:37,800 Speaker 3: been on our screens in the last twenty years who 1993 01:36:37,800 --> 01:36:40,840 Speaker 3: are not on our screens anymore. It's a veritable depth 1994 01:36:40,880 --> 01:36:43,280 Speaker 3: of talent for TV and there to go and plum 1995 01:36:43,360 --> 01:36:46,000 Speaker 3: if they want to listen. Just an update on the 1996 01:36:46,040 --> 01:36:47,960 Speaker 3: AI and the Spotify and stuff, because of course this 1997 01:36:48,040 --> 01:36:50,240 Speaker 3: is causing all kinds of drama. There is a little 1998 01:36:50,240 --> 01:36:52,719 Speaker 3: bit of movement here. It looks like Spotify has announced 1999 01:36:53,040 --> 01:36:56,640 Speaker 3: a deal with major music labels on using artificial intelligence 2000 01:36:56,680 --> 01:36:59,600 Speaker 3: AI in a responsible way. So what they've announced is 2001 01:36:59,600 --> 01:37:01,840 Speaker 3: they go in to license music from the three biggest 2002 01:37:01,920 --> 01:37:05,240 Speaker 3: music labels, being Sony, Universal, and Warner, and then they 2003 01:37:05,400 --> 01:37:07,479 Speaker 3: go into they say it's going to put artists and 2004 01:37:07,560 --> 01:37:10,320 Speaker 3: songwriters first, and they're going to develop these AI tools 2005 01:37:10,680 --> 01:37:12,760 Speaker 3: and they're going to respect the copyright and stuff. But 2006 01:37:12,840 --> 01:37:14,880 Speaker 3: it's really unclear what the AI tools are going to 2007 01:37:14,920 --> 01:37:16,680 Speaker 3: look like and what they're going to do, what's going 2008 01:37:16,760 --> 01:37:20,360 Speaker 3: to happen here, So I think it's probably I don't know. 2009 01:37:20,760 --> 01:37:22,560 Speaker 3: The feeling I give to the lack of detail just 2010 01:37:22,600 --> 01:37:25,320 Speaker 3: suggests to me that what this is, what's going on 2011 01:37:25,400 --> 01:37:28,280 Speaker 3: here is just a bit of damage control. There's not 2012 01:37:28,360 --> 01:37:30,640 Speaker 3: actually anything here other than just trying to stop the 2013 01:37:30,720 --> 01:37:33,120 Speaker 3: musicians freaking out. It's not going to stop the musicians 2014 01:37:33,160 --> 01:37:35,639 Speaker 3: freaking out, by the way, because even if their music 2015 01:37:35,680 --> 01:37:38,519 Speaker 3: and their copyright is respected and stuff, every AI song 2016 01:37:38,520 --> 01:37:40,960 Speaker 3: that gets uploaded to Spotify is an AI song that 2017 01:37:41,040 --> 01:37:44,640 Speaker 3: is now earning money for Spotify, or whether that is 2018 01:37:44,680 --> 01:37:46,880 Speaker 3: not earning money, that displaces the song that could have 2019 01:37:46,920 --> 01:37:49,240 Speaker 3: otherwise been earning money for real life musicians. You see 2020 01:37:49,280 --> 01:37:51,439 Speaker 3: what I'm saying. Anyway, we'll see how it goes. I 2021 01:37:51,439 --> 01:37:53,600 Speaker 3: don't think the sing is run, that's course, yet adds. 2022 01:37:54,000 --> 01:37:56,439 Speaker 24: New York Groove as performed by Ace Freely to play 2023 01:37:56,520 --> 01:37:56,960 Speaker 24: us out tonight. 2024 01:37:57,080 --> 01:37:58,519 Speaker 9: Unfortunately it is a sad one today. 2025 01:37:58,560 --> 01:38:00,800 Speaker 24: Ace Freely, who was probably best as the one of 2026 01:38:00,840 --> 01:38:03,599 Speaker 24: the founding members of Kiss and the Spaceman, has died 2027 01:38:03,680 --> 01:38:05,679 Speaker 24: at the age of seventy four. He had a fall 2028 01:38:05,720 --> 01:38:07,960 Speaker 24: in the studio and had a brain bleed and unfortunately 2029 01:38:08,040 --> 01:38:11,439 Speaker 24: has led to him passing on. This is from a 2030 01:38:11,479 --> 01:38:13,599 Speaker 24: solo album he did, so this is a thing Kissed 2031 01:38:13,600 --> 01:38:15,920 Speaker 24: did in nineteen seventy eight. All four members of the 2032 01:38:15,960 --> 01:38:18,960 Speaker 24: band released a solo album on the same day. And 2033 01:38:19,000 --> 01:38:21,519 Speaker 24: the interesting thing is critics in the years since and 2034 01:38:21,600 --> 01:38:24,599 Speaker 24: at the time have concluded that ACES one was actually 2035 01:38:24,600 --> 01:38:27,280 Speaker 24: the best of the four albums. This song New York 2036 01:38:27,280 --> 01:38:29,479 Speaker 24: Group is actually a cover from another band who had 2037 01:38:29,760 --> 01:38:31,920 Speaker 24: called Hello, who had released it a few years earlier, 2038 01:38:31,960 --> 01:38:33,640 Speaker 24: but has kind of stood the test of time and 2039 01:38:33,680 --> 01:38:34,320 Speaker 24: has now a big hit. 2040 01:38:34,439 --> 01:38:34,920 Speaker 9: So there you go. 2041 01:38:35,200 --> 01:38:36,760 Speaker 3: So, do you know who's going to be really sad 2042 01:38:36,760 --> 01:38:39,240 Speaker 3: about this? Is Do you remember we had a US 2043 01:38:39,320 --> 01:38:41,400 Speaker 3: ambassador called Scott. Do you remember Scott? 2044 01:38:41,479 --> 01:38:42,640 Speaker 9: Yes, I remember Scott. 2045 01:38:42,439 --> 01:38:48,120 Speaker 3: Who did the centerfold the model. He was obssessed. Robert 2046 01:38:48,200 --> 01:38:51,160 Speaker 3: is obsessed with Kiss to this day, like collects all 2047 01:38:51,200 --> 01:38:54,840 Speaker 3: of their staff, hangs out with them and staff. I 2048 01:38:55,320 --> 01:38:57,040 Speaker 3: think about this, ants if you had to pick a 2049 01:38:57,080 --> 01:38:59,519 Speaker 3: band to be obsessed with, it would not be kiss Ae. 2050 01:39:00,080 --> 01:39:01,960 Speaker 9: So for me, I would say no. But this is 2051 01:39:02,000 --> 01:39:02,360 Speaker 9: the thing. 2052 01:39:02,439 --> 01:39:05,679 Speaker 24: They were such a like a they were so different, 2053 01:39:05,800 --> 01:39:08,360 Speaker 24: like all the makeup and all the ridiculous things that 2054 01:39:08,479 --> 01:39:10,240 Speaker 24: it was just so different everything in the seventies that 2055 01:39:10,240 --> 01:39:12,240 Speaker 24: they kind of created a cult following that would never 2056 01:39:12,280 --> 01:39:12,719 Speaker 24: go away. 2057 01:39:12,880 --> 01:39:14,439 Speaker 9: But I just couldn't say were doing their own thing. 2058 01:39:14,520 --> 01:39:14,720 Speaker 2: Yeah. 2059 01:39:14,720 --> 01:39:16,080 Speaker 3: What I couldn't get over though, and you make a 2060 01:39:16,080 --> 01:39:18,760 Speaker 3: fair point, But what I couldn't get over was what 2061 01:39:18,800 --> 01:39:22,320 Speaker 3: they sounded like is not what they looked like at all. 2062 01:39:22,400 --> 01:39:24,559 Speaker 3: They should have looked like a bunch of daggy dads 2063 01:39:24,560 --> 01:39:26,320 Speaker 3: from the seventies that anyway. 2064 01:39:26,160 --> 01:39:28,000 Speaker 24: That's right. I was going to say, I've got who 2065 01:39:28,040 --> 01:39:29,880 Speaker 24: is this From Michael Hahn from the Guardian. He says, 2066 01:39:29,880 --> 01:39:31,679 Speaker 24: I've written enough about Kiss for it to be playing 2067 01:39:31,680 --> 01:39:33,839 Speaker 24: that while they fascinate me and I have a genuine 2068 01:39:33,880 --> 01:39:35,679 Speaker 24: love for them. I also don't think they're that great 2069 01:39:35,720 --> 01:39:37,840 Speaker 24: natural band, so that's I think probably what a lot 2070 01:39:37,880 --> 01:39:38,720 Speaker 24: of people think about them. 2071 01:39:39,080 --> 01:39:41,360 Speaker 3: Well, there you go, Not from me, from him.
