1 00:00:02,040 --> 00:00:05,560 Speaker 1: Pressing the newsmakers to get the real story. It's Heather 2 00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:08,920 Speaker 1: due to see Ellen drive with one New Zealand let's 3 00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:09,719 Speaker 1: get connected. 4 00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:10,920 Speaker 2: News folk said, be. 5 00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:16,959 Speaker 3: Good afternoon. The Chinese premiere is here. He's landed, just 6 00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:20,200 Speaker 3: as new allegations e merge of Chinese interference in our democracy. 7 00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:22,439 Speaker 3: We're going to speak to former Sas Minister Andrew Little 8 00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:25,439 Speaker 3: about it. Brian Waddell, cricket commentator, on how the cricket's 9 00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:29,400 Speaker 3: going not well, by the way, really really badly. Also 10 00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:32,120 Speaker 3: bad news more of it. Our gas supply is down 11 00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:33,800 Speaker 3: again big time, so we're going to speak to an 12 00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:34,600 Speaker 3: analyst about that. 13 00:00:35,240 --> 00:00:36,600 Speaker 2: Heather Dup to c Ellen. 14 00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:38,800 Speaker 3: I am here for the government's proposal to lift the 15 00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:41,000 Speaker 3: speed limits again. How good is this. I'm going to 16 00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:43,800 Speaker 3: tell you what's happened at a road or on a 17 00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:46,120 Speaker 3: road near my mum's place and pook Achoe. Okay, there's 18 00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:47,720 Speaker 3: this back road that drives me. This kind of stuff 19 00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:49,919 Speaker 3: drives me crazy. There's this back road that you can 20 00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:51,680 Speaker 3: take if you don't want to take the main road 21 00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:54,680 Speaker 3: when you turn off the motorway at Drury in order 22 00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:56,680 Speaker 3: to kind of go on a rural back road to 23 00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 3: pook a coe that used to be one hundred k's 24 00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:01,319 Speaker 3: an hour, But then, of course the labor government took 25 00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:04,839 Speaker 3: its nanny approach state nanny state approach to speed limits, 26 00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:06,440 Speaker 3: and the limit got dropped from one hundred k's an 27 00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:08,880 Speaker 3: hour to eighty k's an hour. And to be honest 28 00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:10,800 Speaker 3: with you, in parts of the road, maybe eighty k's 29 00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:13,680 Speaker 3: an hour makes sense, but actually there are quite significant 30 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:15,360 Speaker 3: parts of the road which are dead straight and you 31 00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 3: can see all that you need to see ahead of 32 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:19,600 Speaker 3: you for ages, and it could be one hundred k's 33 00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:21,839 Speaker 3: and that would be perfectly fine, but it's eighty k's. 34 00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 3: The whole way gets better now they've built a school. 35 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 3: So the other day I drive past to see the 36 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 3: school for the first time. The speed limit outside the 37 00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:33,920 Speaker 3: school is now thirty k's an hour all day, every day, 38 00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:37,560 Speaker 3: not just when the school is on all day. Ten 39 00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:41,000 Speaker 3: o'clock at night, thirty k's an hour, Saturdays, thirty ks 40 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:44,000 Speaker 3: an hour, Sundays thirty ten o'clock on a Sunday night 41 00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:47,280 Speaker 3: thirty k's an hour. There's no reason for that. It's 42 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:51,040 Speaker 3: a rural road. There is literally nothing else around the school. 43 00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 3: It is literally a school, and some paddocks and a 44 00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 3: road in the middle, and it's thirty k's an hour 45 00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 3: all day, every day. Now, that's the kind of stupidity 46 00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:02,200 Speaker 3: that I'm hoping is going to be unwound by what 47 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 3: this government's about to do and but hopefully replaced a 48 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:06,840 Speaker 3: little bit more common sense. The government will still require 49 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:09,440 Speaker 3: speed limits outside schools to be thirty k's an hour, 50 00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:10,880 Speaker 3: and I think that you and I can agree that 51 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:13,800 Speaker 3: that's a smart idea, sixty k's in rural areas, but 52 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:16,240 Speaker 3: the speed limit will be variable, so if you drive 53 00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:18,280 Speaker 3: past at ten o'clock at night, it's not thirty k's 54 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:20,000 Speaker 3: an hour. It's not going to be fixed at thirty 55 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:22,639 Speaker 3: k's every single day, all day long. Speed limits that 56 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:24,640 Speaker 3: were dropped are going to go back up again unless 57 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 3: there is local support for them to stay low. Roads 58 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:29,360 Speaker 3: of national significance will go to one hundred and ten 59 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 3: k's per hour, and they're even considering what bliss is 60 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 3: this one hundred and twenty k's per hour for roads 61 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 3: built to handle that kind of speed. Now, the reason 62 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:41,000 Speaker 3: I'm on board with this is because speed is not 63 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:44,679 Speaker 3: the biggest problem on our roads. You may be surprised 64 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:46,919 Speaker 3: by that it is not the biggest keller on our roads. 65 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:49,440 Speaker 3: Most of the fatalities that we suffer are caused by 66 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:53,240 Speaker 3: drugs and alcohol. So the labor government the last lot 67 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,960 Speaker 3: were tackling the wrong thing. They were dropping speeds, which 68 00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 3: is not the biggest problem, while at the same time 69 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 3: ignoring the biggest problem because the cops basically stopped doing 70 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:04,720 Speaker 3: breath alcohol testing for ages there and even though the 71 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 3: government itself had tried and promised that they'd bring in 72 00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:10,480 Speaker 3: roadside drug testing, they never did. So they were neglecting 73 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:12,640 Speaker 3: the two big problems while focusing on the third problem, 74 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 3: which wasn't the biggest. At least we've got the right order. 75 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 4: Now. 76 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 3: The cops are back with the booze buses, the roadside 77 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:19,679 Speaker 3: drug tests are apparently coming in by the end of 78 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:21,760 Speaker 3: this year, and the speed limits going to go back 79 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:22,799 Speaker 3: to common sense levels. 80 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 2: Heather Duper see Ala Simmy and Brown is. 81 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 3: With us actually ten past five on Matt Now, the 82 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 3: Retirement Commissioner has made a series of recommendations for changes 83 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 3: to Keiwi SABER. The analysis has recommended default contribution rates 84 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:36,840 Speaker 3: should go from where they are right now, which is 85 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:40,760 Speaker 3: three percent to four percent, with employers being required to 86 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 3: match at that level, but the Commission stopped short of 87 00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 3: recommending key we Saber be made completely compulsory. Michelle Rayes 88 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:49,680 Speaker 3: is the policy lead at the Retirement Commissioner Commission. Rather 89 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,520 Speaker 3: Heimerschelle Hi have why not compulsory? 90 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:55,840 Speaker 5: Well, I think the evidence shows us that it's not 91 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 5: really necessary. We've got very high levels of membership. The 92 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,280 Speaker 5: scheme has been very afa have been getting people to join, 93 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 5: and when we look at contributing members we see that 94 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:06,640 Speaker 5: almost all of the people who are in paid employment 95 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:10,960 Speaker 5: are actually contributing already, So compulsion isn't really necessary. 96 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 3: Really, Like, what proportion of people in paid employment are contributed. 97 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:17,920 Speaker 5: Well, those that are paid employees, so those are wage 98 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:20,719 Speaker 5: and salary earners, about ninety percent of them are actually 99 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 5: currently contributing to the scheme. And when we look more 100 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:27,039 Speaker 5: broadly as the population that include self employed, it dropped 101 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 5: about eighty percent. 102 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:31,120 Speaker 3: And why not make it compulsory to scoop up that 103 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 3: last ten percent? 104 00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 5: Well, I think that there are downfalls to forcing people 105 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 5: to say, you know, some people on very low incomes 106 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,920 Speaker 5: will actually not necessarily be better off if they give 107 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 5: up current well being for some future time period. So 108 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 5: we just want to give a little bit more flexibility 109 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 5: to people to make their own decision. 110 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,920 Speaker 3: Obviously we don't you know, you don't have to make 111 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:55,359 Speaker 3: it compulsory for the worker, but you can make it 112 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 3: compulsory for the employer. Why not do that? 113 00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:00,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, So that's one of the things that we we 114 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 5: do think some consideration should be given to. We know 115 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 5: that in other jurisdictions, you know, employer contributions are compulsory. 116 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 5: So that's something that we have recommended that the government 117 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:10,360 Speaker 5: might give consideration too. 118 00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:11,920 Speaker 3: Why not call for it? 119 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 5: I suppose there's always one needs a bit of a 120 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:20,359 Speaker 5: broader analysis before you make these kind of calls, because 121 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 5: there are broader economic impacts that come out of compulsory settings, 122 00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:30,599 Speaker 5: like what they can impact on wage levels generally within 123 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 5: their economy, sometimes the economic productivity. So there's broader issues 124 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 5: at play that needed to be technique. 125 00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:39,280 Speaker 3: For example, if you force an employer to make a 126 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:41,599 Speaker 3: key we save a contribution on behalf of the employee, 127 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 3: they may in fact dock the employee's pay. 128 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, that is one of the scenarios that can result, right. 129 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:51,160 Speaker 3: Am I right in thinking that the employer over in 130 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:54,039 Speaker 3: Australia has to put something like eleven percent in for 131 00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:54,600 Speaker 3: the worker. 132 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:58,720 Speaker 5: Yes, that's correct. Yeah, they've been increasing their contributions over 133 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:00,520 Speaker 5: the past number of years. I think is currently at 134 00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 5: about eleven percent. 135 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 3: So why don't we get real? I mean, we're talking 136 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:05,600 Speaker 3: here about raising it from three to four percent. That's 137 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:07,720 Speaker 3: totally winks when you're comparing it to eleven percent or 138 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:09,800 Speaker 3: over in Australia, those guys are loaded. Shouldn't we be 139 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:11,239 Speaker 3: doing the same as them? 140 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 5: Well, I think that's the first thing to notice. When 141 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:14,920 Speaker 5: we say four percent, that would be with a four 142 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 5: percent employer match, so it's actually an eight percent contribution 143 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:20,599 Speaker 5: we're talking about. And the other thing to remember is 144 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 5: that New Zealand's quite different from Australia because we have 145 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:27,680 Speaker 5: New Zealand Super, so that is a universal pension payment 146 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:32,240 Speaker 5: which isn't in place in Australia. So in a way, 147 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:34,440 Speaker 5: people won't have to save as much out of their 148 00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:36,920 Speaker 5: current income because of the fact that New Zealand Super 149 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:39,279 Speaker 5: is available to them as retirement income stream. 150 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:43,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, fair point. Hey are you worried about our savings culture? 151 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 3: I mean, how on earth have we got people who 152 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:47,159 Speaker 3: in some cases only got one hundred bucks in their 153 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:48,480 Speaker 3: bank account at the end of the month. 154 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think, you know, that is concerning. I think 155 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 5: that probably is a bit of a function of the 156 00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:57,159 Speaker 5: current economic climate that we're in at the moment, But yeah, 157 00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:00,240 Speaker 5: it is something that concerns us just generally Savan's culture. Sure, 158 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 5: it's something that we, you know, are pushing for people 159 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:07,920 Speaker 5: to kind of think about their future selves when they 160 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 5: make decisions about current spending as well. But yeah, it 161 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:13,000 Speaker 5: is a concern more generally, is I. 162 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:14,880 Speaker 3: Mean, Michelle, there's not a lot you can do. If 163 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 3: somebody is just you know, living kind of paypack it 164 00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 3: to pay pack it, that that is what will happen, 165 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 3: and you know, you just hope for the best for them. 166 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 3: But do we have examples of people who are actually 167 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 3: on a reasonable wicket who still don't save. 168 00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 5: Yeah, Unfortunately, we don't have quite that level of what's 169 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:35,760 Speaker 5: this aggregation and the data or the ability to break 170 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 5: down to have a look at those kind of levels 171 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 5: of analysis, So we're not one hundred percent sure of 172 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:43,920 Speaker 5: that at the moment, but there probably are, you know, 173 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:47,480 Speaker 5: instances where people aren't necessarily unsaving as much as they should. 174 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 5: I think the beauty of kiwisaver is how it works 175 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 5: as an opt out system and the default settings. All 176 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 5: of that helps play into the behavioral factors that we 177 00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 5: know are at play when people save. So we know 178 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 5: that you saves working quite well then in capturing people 179 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 5: who otherwise might not be saving just because of things 180 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 5: like you know, procrastination and inertia. So people get into 181 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 5: the scheme and they don't. 182 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 6: Opt out of it. 183 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 5: So that's that's a good outcome in terms of people 184 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 5: saving for their future selves. 185 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,720 Speaker 3: Michelle, thank you very much, really appreciated this. Michelle Rayer 186 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:26,040 Speaker 3: of the Retirement Commission quarter past. 187 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 1: Digging deeper into the day's headlines, it's hither duper c 188 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 1: Allen Drive with one New Zealand one giant leaf for business. 189 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:36,720 Speaker 3: U Storks, be Ey's up, Darcy water Grave. 190 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:39,320 Speaker 7: No, I'm sulking. 191 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:43,280 Speaker 3: What are you sulking? Oh? How about that? 192 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:44,280 Speaker 7: Are you laughing? 193 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 6: Yes? 194 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 8: Because really cruel. 195 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:49,199 Speaker 7: Don't kick a sports fan when he's down, mate. 196 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,600 Speaker 3: Come on loose to the West and he's by thirteen 197 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:53,160 Speaker 3: runs not good enough? 198 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 9: No, and then I lost previously to afghanistart not good enough. 199 00:08:57,200 --> 00:09:00,200 Speaker 9: And while talking last night and character, well, it's it's 200 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:03,680 Speaker 9: one game. Every team is going to have a bad game. 201 00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:05,679 Speaker 9: It doesn't reflect poorly on the team. And they were 202 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:10,720 Speaker 9: going really, really well this afternoon. They were really pushing 203 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,600 Speaker 9: down on the necks of the West Indians and was 204 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:17,720 Speaker 9: looking good and then Darryl Mitchell came in and bowling 205 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:20,000 Speaker 9: over and the last two overs got dispatched for I 206 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 9: think it was nineteen and eighteen respectively, and that shot 207 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:26,080 Speaker 9: them out. We needed one hundred and fifty to win, 208 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 9: and then the wickets just kept the tumbling right at 209 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 9: the very end. Santa Claus had a bit of a 210 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:33,360 Speaker 9: crack and had a few sexes, but it was too little, 211 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 9: too late. 212 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:35,680 Speaker 7: Problem disappointing. 213 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:38,000 Speaker 9: Oh there was some okay bowling, but there was some 214 00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:41,720 Speaker 9: also problem awful. What was the problem in the tournament? 215 00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:43,840 Speaker 7: Yeah? New Zealand won no games? 216 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:44,560 Speaker 3: Yeah? Why? 217 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:45,640 Speaker 8: Why? 218 00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 9: Well, the general thoughts are that they had no build 219 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 9: up and they had no warm up games, so they 220 00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:54,080 Speaker 9: were all underdone when they turned up. 221 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 3: Just answer me this question, because we talked about this yesterday. 222 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:58,000 Speaker 3: Did they have time for warm up games? 223 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 9: There was said by Ineed that it was difficult to 224 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 9: fit them in by the time they wanted to, But 225 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 9: I find that a. 226 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:08,920 Speaker 7: Pretty bad excuse. You'll find something when there's a will. 227 00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 7: There's a way. 228 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 9: The Australians had it great, they'd had one with nine 229 00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 9: players that had a couple of their coaches come on 230 00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:16,439 Speaker 9: and play. They would find it, they would do it 231 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 9: and if they didn't sort it out, well, it does 232 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 9: this line New Zealand Cricket for not actually going hold on, 233 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:24,000 Speaker 9: we need something. We've got to do something, Nana, we'll 234 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:28,160 Speaker 9: be right and we weren't right consecutive games and look, 235 00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 9: New Zealand Cricket might go no, that's not the case. 236 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 9: We're actually forced into the corner. There's nothing we could 237 00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:34,440 Speaker 9: do about it. Well, you run the show. You need 238 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 9: to do better. 239 00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 8: You know. 240 00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:37,600 Speaker 9: The best thing about this result though, I mean, there's 241 00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:39,720 Speaker 9: still two more games to go and there's a small 242 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 9: chance New Zealand might get in that it revolves on 243 00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 9: other results going our way and the run rates blying out. 244 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,400 Speaker 9: It's not going to happen. It's not going to I'll 245 00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:49,800 Speaker 9: bet what's the left of my career after today on it. 246 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:52,240 Speaker 9: So we should be fine. But you know the positive thing, 247 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 9: what's that, Well, we don't have to get up at 248 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:55,440 Speaker 9: two thirty in the morning to watch the black Caps 249 00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 9: anymore because it's a waste of time. 250 00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 3: So send them home and let's have a little conversation. 251 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 7: They've got to play Neuganda and Papua New Guinea, you know. 252 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 3: After that, they've got to come back and they've got 253 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:05,679 Speaker 3: to They've got to get what's coming at them from 254 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 3: the public. 255 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:07,360 Speaker 2: Right because they will. 256 00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 3: They will, and they deserve. 257 00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 7: It, and the coach will get it and the players 258 00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:12,360 Speaker 7: will get it. 259 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:15,240 Speaker 9: And I disturbed about maybe the captain. See at the 260 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:18,880 Speaker 9: very end when the Seamas are bowling well and Williamson 261 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 9: didn't really do a maths properly, and suddenly Darrell Mitchell, 262 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 9: a guy comes on. He's all right, you know, military 263 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 9: medium pace and he has hardly played and he's got 264 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:29,839 Speaker 9: to smash all over the park. 265 00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:34,240 Speaker 3: That's just not poor mats on something which I'm excited about. 266 00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 3: How real do you think this rumor is that the 267 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:39,719 Speaker 3: NRL wants Eden Park to host a State of Origin game? 268 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:39,920 Speaker 1: Oh? 269 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:42,199 Speaker 9: I know the rumors there, the possibility of it, and 270 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:45,000 Speaker 9: IMS going to carry on being mister dirty negative after 271 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,400 Speaker 9: today is about the same as the black Caps somehow 272 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:49,960 Speaker 9: getting through it as well. There are a number of 273 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 9: reasons behind this about why one of them the only 274 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 9: place they could have it over here would be Eden Park, right, 275 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:56,040 Speaker 9: it's any place big enough. Yeah, okay, what are the 276 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:59,559 Speaker 9: chances of the Eden Park residents allowing a game being 277 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 9: played not even part the garden of Eden that Mount 278 00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 9: Eden kings And it'll had to start at or about 279 00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,599 Speaker 9: half past nine New Zealand time to get the broadcast 280 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:11,719 Speaker 9: rights for over in Australia. Well yeah, because that's half 281 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 9: past seven, that'll be the earliest I go. So that 282 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,559 Speaker 9: means they need dispensation, that he law changes whatever in 283 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:18,760 Speaker 9: order to have a game that goes to maybe half 284 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 9: past midnight. 285 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 3: I realize they can do the fast track consent and 286 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 3: they don't need this kind of permission. That's the first 287 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:25,079 Speaker 3: thing that I don't like. 288 00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:27,040 Speaker 7: The chance of it. I don't like the chances of it. 289 00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 7: Why on earth would the Australian public even agree to this? 290 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:33,680 Speaker 2: This is their competition, this is theirs. 291 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:35,679 Speaker 7: Look, they might want to branch out a wee bit. 292 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 9: Greg Peters is going to join us on the show 293 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 9: into our CEO up after seven o'clock to talk about why. 294 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:44,720 Speaker 7: The other big factor here is the amount of money. 295 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 9: It actually costs. Because Melbourne and Perth and all of 296 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:53,480 Speaker 9: these cities they peel the folding off saying we want 297 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:55,960 Speaker 9: it here for the economic benefit. They pay for it 298 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:58,520 Speaker 9: five to ten million dollars. Oh wow, to get them 299 00:12:58,520 --> 00:12:59,079 Speaker 9: to turn up. 300 00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:00,679 Speaker 7: Who's going to pay for over here? 301 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 9: So I don't know if we've got the ground, I 302 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 9: don't know if we've got the resident support. I don't 303 00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 9: know if we've got the money. It goes on and 304 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:08,559 Speaker 9: on and on, like building a new stateum In. 305 00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:11,680 Speaker 3: Some cricket texts, sure call themselves cricketers. Whether they are 306 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:14,679 Speaker 3: a bloody embarrassment, that's what they are. That's from John here. 307 00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:17,520 Speaker 3: The bunch of has beens standard practice like the abs. 308 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:19,920 Speaker 3: Pick all that you peckle that has been is no 309 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:21,920 Speaker 3: youth and look to the future eager. 310 00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:24,680 Speaker 7: I suppose it's better being has been than it never was. 311 00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:28,439 Speaker 3: But there's a middle ground. Hey, thank you very very much, 312 00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:30,720 Speaker 3: Darcy really appreciated. Does a water grave sports or coastal 313 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 3: back at seven?

I 319 00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:50,200 Speaker 3: didn't really want to watch the whole woeful performance anyway. 320 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 3: Our arrogance it not thinking we needed any lead up 321 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:55,400 Speaker 3: games has quite rightly and quite deservedly bitten us in 322 00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:57,720 Speaker 3: the yars. It's absolutely right. Everybody knows this. Right if 323 00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:00,960 Speaker 3: you're a high performer, I say like as if I 324 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 3: am one. But if you're a high performer, you know 325 00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,959 Speaker 3: that the most important thing is not how awesome you are, 326 00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:09,600 Speaker 3: it's the work you put in beforehand. It pays off 327 00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:12,600 Speaker 3: and so you know they'll have to live with that. Listen, 328 00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:16,280 Speaker 3: the Chinese premiere has just touched down in the country today. 329 00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:20,120 Speaker 3: Lands at a time like this has obviously been deliberately timed. 330 00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:22,960 Speaker 3: Stuff has released a documentary.

Therefore, I will just give you as much 333 00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:29,480 Speaker 3: as you need to know about it. The documentary claims 334 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:32,280 Speaker 3: that there is this high level of Chinese interference in 335 00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:34,800 Speaker 3: New Zealand, and for the documentary, they interview Chinese New 336 00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:37,480 Speaker 3: Zealanders about their experiences.

And there are experiences, yeah, that 341 00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:52,720 Speaker 10: the rest of New Zealand needs to know about now. 342 00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:55,680 Speaker 3: According to this documentary, there's this lobbying work that's going 343 00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,360 Speaker 3: on from the Chinese Communist Party via the so called 344 00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:02,960 Speaker 3: United Front work depart arment and a secretive United Front 345 00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:06,680 Speaker 3: sub operation. The journalists behind this documentary, Paul of Penfold, 346 00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:08,840 Speaker 3: asks who the big players are in New Zealand and 347 00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:10,040 Speaker 3: we hear a familiar name. 348 00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:14,600 Speaker 5: What names are influential in New Zealand? 349 00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:17,280 Speaker 2: Young Cheer Uh huh? 350 00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:19,560 Speaker 3: The former National MP. 351 00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:28,360 Speaker 11: Yeah, for Jan Young. He was obwarsely sent by CCP. 352 00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 11: He has some military background and so that's what I'm 353 00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 11: thinking that Jan Young was the most important people. 354 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:41,440 Speaker 3: Basically, what they're saying is the former National MP was 355 00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 3: the spy, aren't they That's what they're saying, and that'll 356 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:45,680 Speaker 3: be that that allegations that rumor has been doing the 357 00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:49,800 Speaker 3: rounds in the political circles forever. Anyway, if that is 358 00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 3: about the extent of the allegations in the documentary. I'm 359 00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:53,880 Speaker 3: not sure that it's quite the fuss that they're making 360 00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:55,360 Speaker 3: it up to be. But anyway, we're going to have 361 00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:57,880 Speaker 3: a chat to Andrew Little, the former SIS minister, who 362 00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 3: has actually been quite outspoken about China in the past. 363 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:02,360 Speaker 3: He's going to be with us after five o'clock in 364 00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:06,480 Speaker 3: the meantime. Can I just say that the texts in 365 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:11,200 Speaker 3: regards to the Retirement Commissioners Commission staffer do not It's 366 00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:15,600 Speaker 3: not good Heather. Listening to your guest speaker on superannuation, 367 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:17,520 Speaker 3: it's very clear to see how we get things so 368 00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:20,040 Speaker 3: hopelessly wrong. Heather. As a financial planner, I'm more concerned 369 00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:22,560 Speaker 3: about what the lady from the Right Retirement Commission said. 370 00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:25,720 Speaker 3: She sounded incompetent, appears to have got basic facts wrong. 371 00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:28,720 Speaker 3: Eleven percent super and OZ is the minimum contribution and 372 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:30,360 Speaker 3: you do actually get a pension and o's on top 373 00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 3: of the super according to a text to headlines. 374 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:38,800 Speaker 1: Next Hard Questions, Strong opinion, Heather Duperice Alan drive with 375 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:41,760 Speaker 1: one New Zealand let's get connected and used talk and 376 00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 1: said Beeld. 377 00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:56,880 Speaker 3: Australia requires eleven percent of pay from employers, but their 378 00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:59,760 Speaker 3: age pension is income asset tested, unlike New Zealand Super 379 00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:02,680 Speaker 3: the lost country comparisons cross country comparisons are very difficult, 380 00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:05,840 Speaker 3: fairly unhelpful. Besides which total key we save our assets 381 00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:08,200 Speaker 3: is just four point five percent of total household wealth. 382 00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:10,760 Speaker 3: It's a fairly insignificant cog and that will Michael, thank 383 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:12,760 Speaker 3: you make some very good points there. Murray Olds are 384 00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:15,280 Speaker 3: standing by to talk to us out of Australia and 385 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:18,080 Speaker 3: Barry Sober in ten minutes time. And I've got very 386 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:20,440 Speaker 3: very bad news on the gas front. If you're worried 387 00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:22,840 Speaker 3: about the electricity this winter, you should be worried. I'll 388 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 3: run you through those details shortly twenty three away from five. 389 00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:29,439 Speaker 2: It's the world wires on news talks. It'd be drive. 390 00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:32,359 Speaker 3: US Secretary of State Anthony Blincoln has wrapped up his 391 00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:34,639 Speaker 3: latest trip to the Middle East. He's still hopeful that 392 00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:37,520 Speaker 3: the UN back Gaza ceasepire deal might go through, but 393 00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:40,360 Speaker 3: he says some of Hamas's proposed amendments just are not viable. 394 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:42,480 Speaker 12: Some of the changes. 395 00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:45,800 Speaker 2: I think we believe are workable, but some are not. 396 00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 2: And so we'll have to see over the coming days 397 00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:54,800 Speaker 2: whether the gaps that are there whether they can be bridged. 398 00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 3: Unemployment has unexpectedly decreased in Australia. It's fallen from four 399 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:02,240 Speaker 3: point one to four In May, Sky News Business editor 400 00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:04,920 Speaker 3: Ross Greenwood says that even with high immigration, the number 401 00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,600 Speaker 3: of unemployed people has come down quite significantly. 402 00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:12,200 Speaker 13: There are now one hundred and ten thousand fewer unemployed 403 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:15,600 Speaker 13: people than what they were before the pandemic, so that 404 00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:18,639 Speaker 13: says everything about the strength of Australia's jobs market. 405 00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:22,760 Speaker 3: More with Muzz. Shortly and finally, residents of a small 406 00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 3: town in Canada have finally worked out who's been breaking 407 00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:27,320 Speaker 3: into their cars at night. It turns out it's a 408 00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:29,879 Speaker 3: black bear. Problem is the black bear has been breaking 409 00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:31,760 Speaker 3: into the cars because he wants to snack on their 410 00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 3: upholstery foam. I know he's developed a taste for eating 411 00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:38,120 Speaker 3: their chairs. Kaylas Seward managed to solve the mystery when 412 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:40,120 Speaker 3: the bear decided to have a nap inside her car 413 00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:41,359 Speaker 3: after he filled his tummy. 414 00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:45,960 Speaker 1: International correspondence with ends in Eye Insurance Peace of Mind 415 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:48,800 Speaker 1: for New Zealand Business Marie. 416 00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:50,200 Speaker 3: Old Dotty correspondents with us Now. 417 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:52,480 Speaker 7: Hey Muzz, Good afternoon, Heather. 418 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:55,120 Speaker 3: So is there a feeling in Australia that Jared Haynes 419 00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:59,080 Speaker 3: is going to have to do this fourth trial, well. 420 00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:02,280 Speaker 14: It's unprecedented. And if it gets to the fourth trial 421 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 14: for the same alleged defense. Jeredhane, of course, the former 422 00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:11,080 Speaker 14: rugby league superstar and was convicted of sexually assaulting a 423 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:15,600 Speaker 14: woman in Newcastle in twenty eighteen. The first matter went 424 00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:18,280 Speaker 14: to trial, the jury couldn't agree, was a hung jury, 425 00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:22,359 Speaker 14: so that was in twenty eighteen twenty. In twenty twenty, 426 00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:25,320 Speaker 14: I Big your pardon twenty twenty one goes to second trial. 427 00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:27,680 Speaker 14: They found him guilty, but then there was an appeal. 428 00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:31,080 Speaker 14: It succeeded on the basis that the presiding judge gave 429 00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:35,960 Speaker 14: the jury flawed information, flowed directions. So the DPP, the 430 00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:38,679 Speaker 14: Director of Public Prosecution, has decided let's go to a 431 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:42,280 Speaker 14: third trial and again he was found guilty, but then 432 00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:45,119 Speaker 14: again after a year in jail, an appeal has succeeded 433 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:48,560 Speaker 14: on the basis the presiding judge should have allowed the 434 00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:52,840 Speaker 14: female complainant, the woman who alleged that she was sexually assaulted, 435 00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:55,720 Speaker 14: the judge should have allowed her to be cross examined 436 00:19:55,720 --> 00:20:00,240 Speaker 14: about text messages that were either deleted or undisclosed. With 437 00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:02,959 Speaker 14: a fourth trial be held, it's over to the Director 438 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:05,840 Speaker 14: of Public Prosecutions. But it might not get to that, Heather, 439 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:09,879 Speaker 14: because Hayn is eligible for parole in May twenty twenty five, 440 00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:12,640 Speaker 14: and they say a new trial is unlikely to get 441 00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:15,280 Speaker 14: underway before then, So that may be the end of 442 00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:16,840 Speaker 14: the matter. We just don't know at this point. 443 00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:18,639 Speaker 3: So he walked out of jail last night. Where'd he go? 444 00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:22,520 Speaker 14: IM not sure where he went, but you know, he's 445 00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:24,840 Speaker 14: got lots of friends in the rugby league industry, and 446 00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:27,480 Speaker 14: you know he's got family and so on, so I'm 447 00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:30,960 Speaker 14: not sure where he went. Intest it may emerge in 448 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:32,240 Speaker 14: the next next few days. 449 00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:34,359 Speaker 3: I'm sure you guys are great in the media at 450 00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:37,280 Speaker 3: stalking these people are like harrising. I'm keen on it. 451 00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:39,960 Speaker 3: I'm looking forward to it. Listen, what's happened with the 452 00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:41,639 Speaker 3: unemployment that had suddenly come down? 453 00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:42,800 Speaker 15: Yeah? 454 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:43,160 Speaker 1: Down? 455 00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:46,040 Speaker 14: It's not a huge drop in you know, it was 456 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:48,800 Speaker 14: down to four percent from four point one. The Bureau 457 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:52,280 Speaker 14: of Stats said, there's interesting, forty thousand people found jobs 458 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,719 Speaker 14: in May, plus the number of unemployed people actually dropped 459 00:20:55,720 --> 00:21:01,119 Speaker 14: by nine thousand. Now here's the thing. Economists are saying 460 00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:05,560 Speaker 14: the trend quote unquote, the trend unemployment rate that takes 461 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:09,160 Speaker 14: out seasonal volatility and a few other factors actually picked 462 00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:12,120 Speaker 14: up slightly. It's now the highest that's been for over 463 00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:15,919 Speaker 14: two years. As we're easing out of COVID, those lockdowns 464 00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 14: of COVID. Here's another interesting stat In May, nearly forty 465 00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:22,520 Speaker 14: two thousand people got full time jobs, but over the 466 00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:25,720 Speaker 14: last twelve months in Australia, seventy five percent of people 467 00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:28,640 Speaker 14: who have found work are actually getting part time jobs. Now, 468 00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:30,679 Speaker 14: what does all this mean for interest rates in the 469 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:33,960 Speaker 14: context of maybe an early election this year. Will analysts 470 00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:36,680 Speaker 14: are saying it will maintain the likelihood of a cut 471 00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 14: in official interest rates by the Central Bank before the 472 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 14: end of the year, and Anthony Albanezi may be factoring 473 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:42,800 Speaker 14: that end. 474 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:44,920 Speaker 3: Must listen what's going on with these two cops who've 475 00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:47,400 Speaker 3: been charged with assaulting the ninety two year old. 476 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 14: Ninety two year old man. This happened back in late 477 00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:54,320 Speaker 14: January in southwest Sydney. A senior constable and a constable 478 00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:57,239 Speaker 14: have turned up in response to a call about an 479 00:21:57,240 --> 00:22:01,320 Speaker 14: alleged incident of domestic violence. They find a ninety two 480 00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:03,960 Speaker 14: year old man in the home. We're not one hundred 481 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:07,439 Speaker 14: percent sure exactly what's happened. The police they were wearing 482 00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:10,439 Speaker 14: body cameras. But the old fellow, he's ended up in 483 00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:13,879 Speaker 14: hospital with a fractured elbow and major bruising to his 484 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:17,040 Speaker 14: head and his arms. The two police that have in 485 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:20,679 Speaker 14: charge with assault occasioning actual bodily harm. One's also been 486 00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:24,280 Speaker 14: charged with a separate count of common assault. And here's 487 00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:26,520 Speaker 14: the thing. The Police Commissioner Karen Webs come out this 488 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:30,440 Speaker 14: afternoon and said, because both were wearing body cameras, there's 489 00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:34,199 Speaker 14: a pretty clear picture of exactly what's happened here. And 490 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:37,600 Speaker 14: she says the you know, the big question now is 491 00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:41,359 Speaker 14: going to be was their excessive force used by the 492 00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 14: two officers when they took this fellow with the custody. 493 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:46,000 Speaker 14: He's ninety two years old. I mean, he could have 494 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:48,520 Speaker 14: blame them over with a feather. So let's just wait 495 00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:51,359 Speaker 14: and see one police officer appearing at court in July, 496 00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:52,880 Speaker 14: the other in August. 497 00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:54,520 Speaker 3: Good to talk to you, Moss, Thank you has always 498 00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:57,679 Speaker 3: appreciated this Murray Old's Australia correspondent. So this is what 499 00:22:57,720 --> 00:22:59,480 Speaker 3: you need to know. On the guest front. It is 500 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:02,800 Speaker 3: quite It is quite bad. Privately, behind the scenes, some 501 00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:06,320 Speaker 3: people in the industry are using the words crisis. The 502 00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:08,960 Speaker 3: loath to do that out Nobody wants to be the 503 00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 3: one using that word, right, But I don't mind because 504 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:12,440 Speaker 3: I haven't got any skin in this game. So I'm 505 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:13,680 Speaker 3: happy to pass it on to you that this is 506 00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:15,760 Speaker 3: what they're saying. They're saying that gas is in a 507 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:18,960 Speaker 3: crisis situation for the country. Now. Our gas supply is 508 00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:21,359 Speaker 3: still falling. According to data which just came out today. 509 00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:23,800 Speaker 3: It's the Energy quarterly data from the Ministry of Business, 510 00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:26,640 Speaker 3: Innovation and Employment for the first quarter of this year. 511 00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:30,000 Speaker 3: They say natural gas net production for the quarter was 512 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:35,520 Speaker 3: thirty one point eighty nine peta jules. That's down twelve 513 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:38,440 Speaker 3: percent on the year before. So even though last year 514 00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:41,040 Speaker 3: we weren't getting enough, we're now getting even twelve percent 515 00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:44,000 Speaker 3: less than that. This means it is the lowest quarterly 516 00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:50,520 Speaker 3: production since March nineteen eighty five. A planned outage at 517 00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:53,359 Speaker 3: Puhokuta gas field for maintenance and March has added to 518 00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:55,960 Speaker 3: the problem. It's going to get worse because now a 519 00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:58,919 Speaker 3: Capuny gas field is going offline for maintenance in April, 520 00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:01,280 Speaker 3: and the problem that we've got is that we needed 521 00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:03,199 Speaker 3: this gas because we've had a dry summer that had 522 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:05,320 Speaker 3: less rainfall than we would expect. So we need the 523 00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:07,520 Speaker 3: gas to meet the demand for electricity because the hydraulacs 524 00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:10,200 Speaker 3: aren't working that well. Right now, we don't have the gas. 525 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:13,560 Speaker 3: What are we doing as right She's burning Huntley's going 526 00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:16,439 Speaker 3: for it with fire and that coalon Compared to the 527 00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:19,320 Speaker 3: same quarter last year, there was a ninety nine percent 528 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:22,640 Speaker 3: increase in coal for electricity generation. And what that means 529 00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:25,720 Speaker 3: for greenhouse gas emissions is a twenty one point five 530 00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:29,359 Speaker 3: percent increase compared to March last year. So when the 531 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:31,680 Speaker 3: Greens and Megan Wood says say to you, we don't 532 00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:34,040 Speaker 3: need gas, just show them this. Yeah, we do need 533 00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:37,960 Speaker 3: gas because hello, twenty one point five percent increase in 534 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:41,720 Speaker 3: greenhouse gas emissions. John Kid, who's an energy analyst, will 535 00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:44,280 Speaker 3: be with us twenty five to six. Barry Soapers next 536 00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:45,440 Speaker 3: sixteen away from. 537 00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:50,080 Speaker 1: Five Politics with centrics, Credit, check your customers and get payments, certainty. 538 00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,240 Speaker 3: Barry Sopar Si your political correspondence with us. Hey, Barry, 539 00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:55,040 Speaker 3: good afternoon, Heather. When was the last time we made 540 00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:57,879 Speaker 3: such a big fuss of a visiting international leader. And 541 00:24:58,000 --> 00:24:59,719 Speaker 3: there's a lot of pomp and ceremony, isn't it. 542 00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:02,080 Speaker 16: The was a lot of pomp and term You can 543 00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:04,920 Speaker 16: hear it in the background there. I ran a tape 544 00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:08,760 Speaker 16: over it and watched the ceremony and fortunately the rain 545 00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:12,080 Speaker 16: didn't come down, and Wellington, the wind was there was 546 00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:18,080 Speaker 16: on the front lawn of the government house. There was 547 00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:22,720 Speaker 16: a lot of moldy involvement and you know the last time, 548 00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:24,720 Speaker 16: Goodness only knows. 549 00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:27,080 Speaker 3: I haven't even given it the full rundown. There was 550 00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:29,639 Speaker 3: also a guard of honor for him to inspect and 551 00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:31,320 Speaker 3: a gun salute from Point Joerningham. 552 00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:34,160 Speaker 16: But you would expect that, well not the gun salute 553 00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:39,400 Speaker 16: was a bit surprising, but you've got to remember his sons. Yeah, 554 00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:44,879 Speaker 16: this man is extraordinarily influential in the Chinese government. I 555 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:50,120 Speaker 16: mean he's second in the ranks of the Communist Party 556 00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:55,480 Speaker 16: in China behind the Secretary General Secretary, who of course 557 00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:59,920 Speaker 16: as the president, Jijingping. He was here I remember back 558 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:04,639 Speaker 16: in twenty fourteen and he had a similar sort of ceremony. 559 00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:08,960 Speaker 16: But for the current man, it makes him part of 560 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:13,120 Speaker 16: the loyalist inner circle of the Chinese Communist Party. He's 561 00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:18,560 Speaker 16: also the head of government in China. So what this guy. 562 00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:20,280 Speaker 3: Says goes he's a big deal. 563 00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:24,600 Speaker 16: Here's a big deal. There were protesters out of his hotel, 564 00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:30,560 Speaker 16: pro Chinese protesters, anti Chinese protesters. Apparently that quite a 565 00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:34,240 Speaker 16: bit volatile. We haven't had any of the so called 566 00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:37,960 Speaker 16: announcements that we're expecting from this visit. They'll, no doubt 567 00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:41,080 Speaker 16: come tomorrow. They will have been written a few weeks ago. 568 00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:45,120 Speaker 16: He'll go to dinner at Premierre House tonight. I hope 569 00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 16: they've got rid of the rodents there and one person 570 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:51,480 Speaker 16: who isn't there in terms of residing in it, as 571 00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:55,200 Speaker 16: Chris Luxen. He still resides down the road at his apartment, 572 00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:56,520 Speaker 16: not very far away. 573 00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:58,160 Speaker 3: At all, but he will be at that dinner snight. 574 00:26:58,240 --> 00:26:58,760 Speaker 7: Wony Oh. 575 00:26:58,880 --> 00:26:59,480 Speaker 2: Absolutely. 576 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:04,640 Speaker 16: You know, this country to New Zealand to forty billion 577 00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 16: dollar two way trade been growing ever since that free 578 00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:12,520 Speaker 16: trade agreement was signed back in two thousand and eight. 579 00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:14,760 Speaker 16: I was up in Beijing for it. I was also 580 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:19,160 Speaker 16: there with Jasin da Dern, who made less than twenty 581 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:22,119 Speaker 16: four hour visit to China. I don't think the Chinese 582 00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 16: would have been terribly impressed with that. 583 00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:26,199 Speaker 3: How long is this reduction of the speed limits going 584 00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:27,639 Speaker 3: to take before they actually are reduced. 585 00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:31,400 Speaker 16: Well they haven't said that, they said lifted, Yeah exactly, 586 00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:38,280 Speaker 16: they said that they'll essentially they're setting up a public 587 00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:43,719 Speaker 16: consultation and the documents gone out today. They'll be putting 588 00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:48,159 Speaker 16: in place the review and the timing of it. But 589 00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:52,240 Speaker 16: you know, as we know, during the last labor government, 590 00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:55,399 Speaker 16: speed signs went up all over the place. There was 591 00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:59,720 Speaker 16: no consultation at all. And I know that driving to 592 00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:05,720 Speaker 16: Corrimandel is they call it a ninety kilometer safe zone area. 593 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 16: Now that when you turn off the Auckland Motorway it 594 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:12,240 Speaker 16: goes on for some considerable time and what wouldn't be 595 00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:14,760 Speaker 16: a high crash area because it's a pretty straight road. 596 00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:18,960 Speaker 16: Hopefully that sort of nonsense will be gone. Also the 597 00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:23,399 Speaker 16: speed limits that have been put in many cities around 598 00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:27,120 Speaker 16: New Zealand because people don't quite understand. Okay, it's safety, 599 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:31,159 Speaker 16: but people don't quite understand. You slow down traffic, you 600 00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:35,200 Speaker 16: slow down the economy because you slow down deliveries of goods, 601 00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:40,240 Speaker 16: You slow down you ladies can't get place as fast. Everything, 602 00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:43,160 Speaker 16: you know, everything has slowed down, and that what was done, 603 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:46,720 Speaker 16: and that's what was done. And David Seymour for one, 604 00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:49,760 Speaker 16: because he's part of that, he's the Regulation Review Minister. 605 00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:55,400 Speaker 16: He said the scatter gun restrictions based on nanny state ideology, 606 00:28:55,520 --> 00:29:00,560 Speaker 16: not infer not evidence, are totally depressing. So tackled that 607 00:29:00,600 --> 00:29:02,720 Speaker 16: one and they're going to do it full on. 608 00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:05,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, listen, what are the farmers farmer announcements? 609 00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:06,160 Speaker 7: Well, i'll tell you what. 610 00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:08,960 Speaker 16: The old farmers down at the Egg Day in Hamilton, 611 00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:14,560 Speaker 16: the National Agricultural meet there the day before yesterday they 612 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 16: were told they won't be facing greenhouse gases from next year. 613 00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:22,720 Speaker 16: Yesterday they were told that a Parliamentary select Committee would 614 00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:26,040 Speaker 16: be looking at the banking sector with particular reference on 615 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:31,040 Speaker 16: the rural sector. Today they boosted rural support trusts to 616 00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:34,320 Speaker 16: assist struggling farmers. Now these are trusts that have been 617 00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:37,480 Speaker 16: set up around the country. If a farmers struggling, he 618 00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:40,920 Speaker 16: doesn't get money, but he gets good advice from these trusts. 619 00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:43,960 Speaker 16: So money is going and more money is going into that. 620 00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:49,280 Speaker 16: And finally today they announced a regulatory sector review to 621 00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:57,480 Speaker 16: basically remove the ridiculous red tape from agriculture and horticultural products. 622 00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:00,200 Speaker 16: Now some people say it might say, well what does 623 00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:02,960 Speaker 16: that mean, Well, it means that at the moment, we 624 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:10,400 Speaker 16: don't have access to product that makes animals methane a 625 00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:14,480 Speaker 16: bit slower in terms of omitting it, rye grass. 626 00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:16,800 Speaker 3: And developing meat investing technology exactly. 627 00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:20,280 Speaker 16: Yea, so we don't have access to that. There's also 628 00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:25,120 Speaker 16: science out there that makes vegetable and plants grow faster. 629 00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:28,160 Speaker 16: We don't have access to that. We are a primary 630 00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:32,040 Speaker 16: producing country. And I think this red tape it's well 631 00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:34,680 Speaker 16: and truly beyond the time that it was reviewed. 632 00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:37,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, fair enough, Barry, Thank you.

That's like the Greene Saintissinaway is one of 675 00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 3: our Green Party people and not a minister. Like, so what, 676 00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:32,160 Speaker 3: that's just normal? Of course the Chinese want, of course 677 00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:34,479 Speaker 3: the Chinese community want a Chinese person to be a minister. 678 00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:37,800 Speaker 3: But what he's suggesting is Jian Yang was a spy. 679 00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:40,480 Speaker 3: That's what he's saying, isn't he anyway? Why don't we 680 00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:42,240 Speaker 3: just ask Andrew Little that when he's with us next, 681 00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:43,840 Speaker 3: he's going to be with us next.

His visit has coincided with the release 703 00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:57,600 Speaker 3: of a new documentary about Chinese interference and espionage in 704 00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:02,040 Speaker 3: New Zealand, including suggestions former National MPs Young Young was 705 00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:05,440 Speaker 3: a Chinese spy. Andrew Little is a former minister responsible 706 00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:09,200 Speaker 3: for the GCSPN is with us. Now, hey, Andrew, was 707 00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:11,799 Speaker 3: that national MP a spy? 708 00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:15,239 Speaker 22: Well, I can't comment on any of those sorts of 709 00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:21,359 Speaker 22: things that if has track record as well known, he 710 00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:25,080 Speaker 22: was associated with a PLA before he came to New Zealand. 711 00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:29,520 Speaker 22: He educated some of their senior officers and then he 712 00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:33,120 Speaker 22: came out here. But look, the reality is we know 713 00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:37,320 Speaker 22: that China and it's a relationship with this diaspora community 714 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:40,799 Speaker 22: is a very often a very intense one. We're no 715 00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:43,960 Speaker 22: different to every other country where there is a significant 716 00:34:44,040 --> 00:34:48,879 Speaker 22: Chinese diaspora. The Communist Party, through its various machines and 717 00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:52,520 Speaker 22: organs and organizations, stays in close contact with a lot 718 00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:53,120 Speaker 22: of those people. 719 00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:56,080 Speaker 3: If he was a spy, would you, as the Minister 720 00:34:56,160 --> 00:35:01,759 Speaker 3: for the spies, be told that he was a spy. 721 00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:08,200 Speaker 22: The Minister gets told of operations that the agencies are doing. 722 00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:12,279 Speaker 22: Don't necessarily get told of individuals who might be the 723 00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:15,240 Speaker 22: subject of operations. But if there is a risk, for example, 724 00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:18,799 Speaker 22: to Parliament or to the beehive or something like that, 725 00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:21,400 Speaker 22: then the Minister would be advised of that. 726 00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:26,120 Speaker 3: This documentary claims that China's foreign interference is corroding our democracy. 727 00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:26,520 Speaker 23: Is it? 728 00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:32,759 Speaker 22: If you think that the way China conducts. It's nothing 729 00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:35,160 Speaker 22: much as foreign relations. More it's a relationship with its 730 00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:38,239 Speaker 22: diaspora community. Were here, for example, in New Zealand a 731 00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:42,560 Speaker 22: very strong Chinese media, A lot of it is very 732 00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:48,160 Speaker 22: closely allied to and associated with media organizations in Beijing 733 00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:51,239 Speaker 22: and a date to the Chinese Communist Party, and that 734 00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:55,720 Speaker 22: is the Chinese media or New Zealand is the principal 735 00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:59,160 Speaker 22: source of information to a lot of the Chinese diaspora here, 736 00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:03,719 Speaker 22: often to the exclusion of local New Zealand media, So 737 00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:08,640 Speaker 22: it is very influential. And if the principal line coming 738 00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:11,360 Speaker 22: in that media is the line coming out of Beijing, 739 00:36:11,719 --> 00:36:13,480 Speaker 22: then that's going to have an impact on the way 740 00:36:13,760 --> 00:36:16,839 Speaker 22: people living here are going to think about and make 741 00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:18,440 Speaker 22: decisions about what's happening here. 742 00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:21,760 Speaker 3: Stuff which is behind this documentary claims that the documentary 743 00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:23,799 Speaker 3: is going to ramp up tensions, Will it or is 744 00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:26,439 Speaker 3: this exactly the kind of thing that the Chinese actually expect. 745 00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:26,440 Speaker 12: Us to do. 746 00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:30,279 Speaker 22: I don't know what they expect. That The Chinese are 747 00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:36,000 Speaker 22: very get very brittle about criticism, whether not, of course attendance, 748 00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:38,080 Speaker 22: I don't know. I think the most important thing is 749 00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:40,560 Speaker 22: that we ought to have a good conversation not just 750 00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:45,799 Speaker 22: about China. There are other countries who engage in foreign interference, 751 00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:50,239 Speaker 22: including in New Zealand, and it's important that we go 752 00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:54,640 Speaker 22: into international relationship or foreign relationships with other countries with 753 00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:56,960 Speaker 22: our eyes wide open. And this is about making sure 754 00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:57,479 Speaker 22: that we're all. 755 00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:00,600 Speaker 3: Listen, Andrew, without naming names right set aside, they're into 756 00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:04,399 Speaker 3: influence on their own diaspora, and without naming names, are 757 00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:07,319 Speaker 3: the Chinese trying to interfere with our democracy at all? 758 00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:14,040 Speaker 22: The Chinese. The way the Chinese conduct themselves in most 759 00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:18,759 Speaker 22: countries is to make sure that when governments of the 760 00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:22,000 Speaker 22: day are making decisions that bear upon Chinese interests, that 761 00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:25,960 Speaker 22: those decisions are the most favorable to or in the 762 00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:28,080 Speaker 22: best interests of time. That does happen. 763 00:37:28,640 --> 00:37:31,120 Speaker 3: Okay, Andrew, thank you, I appreciate your time. As always, 764 00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:33,560 Speaker 3: it's Andrew Little, former minister responsible for the SAS and 765 00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:34,719 Speaker 3: the GCSP. 766 00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:35,440 Speaker 2: Heather Duper. 767 00:37:35,480 --> 00:37:37,799 Speaker 3: Cler government has announced it's going to be reversing the 768 00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:40,360 Speaker 3: speed limit reductions that the last government put in place. 769 00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:43,279 Speaker 3: So speed limits around schools will be thirty k's in 770 00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:45,640 Speaker 3: urban areas, they'll be sixty k's in rural areas, they'll 771 00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:49,319 Speaker 3: be variable. New and existing roads of national significance could 772 00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:51,319 Speaker 3: have a speed limit of one hundred and ten k's 773 00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:53,480 Speaker 3: per hour if they've been built to high safety standards, 774 00:37:53,560 --> 00:37:55,160 Speaker 3: and one hundred and twenty k's per hour is an 775 00:37:55,160 --> 00:37:57,279 Speaker 3: option as well.

Those 794 00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:46,520 Speaker 18: are the type of things the agency takes into account. 795 00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:49,200 Speaker 18: We're also making it clear though that when a road 796 00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:51,600 Speaker 18: is built to that sort of standard, we actually expect 797 00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:53,440 Speaker 18: the speed limits to be in place from when the 798 00:38:53,520 --> 00:38:58,040 Speaker 18: road opens, not because of the bureaucratic way the current 799 00:38:58,080 --> 00:39:00,439 Speaker 18: rule works. It has to go through a very long 800 00:39:00,520 --> 00:39:03,120 Speaker 18: and arduous process to actually be checked to make sure 801 00:39:03,120 --> 00:39:05,240 Speaker 18: it is our viewers. If it's built to that standard, 802 00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:07,160 Speaker 18: it should be had that speed limit from the day 803 00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:09,080 Speaker 18: it's opened, not a couple of years later. 804 00:39:09,239 --> 00:39:12,319 Speaker 3: Yeah. Cool. If we're frustrated by any of the speed 805 00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:14,640 Speaker 3: limits that have been imposed on us in the last government, 806 00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:17,040 Speaker 3: can we assume that they will automatically go back to 807 00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:17,560 Speaker 3: where they were. 808 00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:20,520 Speaker 18: So what we're doing is we're basically having a reversal 809 00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:22,680 Speaker 18: in terms of all of those local roads, all of 810 00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:26,719 Speaker 18: those those arterial roads are all going to be reversed back. 811 00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:28,440 Speaker 18: All those state highways, they are going to be reversed 812 00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:31,680 Speaker 18: back to what they were. We will be making sure 813 00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:35,919 Speaker 18: that in terms of speed limits around schools though, where 814 00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:39,400 Speaker 18: there is drew pick up and drop off times, it 815 00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:41,360 Speaker 18: will be a slower speed limit. 816 00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:43,719 Speaker 3: Because actually variable though they. 817 00:39:43,880 --> 00:39:46,840 Speaker 18: Have to be variable only, so it'll be a slower 818 00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:50,040 Speaker 18: speed limit between I think eight o'clock and nine to 819 00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:52,480 Speaker 18: thirty in the morning and between two thirty and four 820 00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:55,880 Speaker 18: in the afternoon, rather than being all around the clock, 821 00:39:55,920 --> 00:39:59,000 Speaker 18: which is how it's currently done at the moment we're 822 00:39:59,040 --> 00:40:01,480 Speaker 18: you're seeing thirty KI is proud being put in suburbs 823 00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:04,960 Speaker 18: across our cities. And you know, you try to fame 824 00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:07,960 Speaker 18: at ten o'clock at night and it's still thirty kilometers 825 00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:10,359 Speaker 18: prayer and by the way, no one's actually following those 826 00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:13,799 Speaker 18: rules and you know what you end up having and 827 00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:16,440 Speaker 18: I've witnessed it myself, was even and the buses are 828 00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:18,640 Speaker 18: going over thirty k's proud because they're trying to keep 829 00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:21,040 Speaker 18: up to their schedules. So the reality is we've got 830 00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:23,000 Speaker 18: to take a common sense approach to this rather than 831 00:40:23,360 --> 00:40:25,680 Speaker 18: a blanket approach just to simply slope people down, which 832 00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:27,000 Speaker 18: is how the last government is doing. 833 00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:27,279 Speaker 24: Enough. 834 00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:29,120 Speaker 3: I mean, I can't even hide my excitement. Thank you 835 00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:33,040 Speaker 3: so much, Simmy and Brown Transport Minister for Ellen that 836 00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:36,000 Speaker 3: if honestly, how good is that. If you don't agree 837 00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:38,480 Speaker 3: that that's good, I gotta know why. Listen update on 838 00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:40,239 Speaker 3: the missing Marter Kupper Dad. So you will have heard 839 00:40:40,239 --> 00:40:42,800 Speaker 3: this morning that somebody may have spotted him at the 840 00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:45,759 Speaker 3: hot pools by t row and called the coppers, got 841 00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:47,840 Speaker 3: out there, called the coppers. It turns out it sounds 842 00:40:47,920 --> 00:40:51,719 Speaker 3: like the coppers did go round that night. I mean, 843 00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:55,719 Speaker 3: I mean, I don't want to be too critical, but 844 00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:58,120 Speaker 3: maybe like immediately might have been a good idea. But anyway, 845 00:40:58,320 --> 00:41:00,920 Speaker 3: they did go around that night. They went round to 846 00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:05,000 Speaker 3: the Okuroire Hot Springs Hotel, which is where you have 847 00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:06,799 Speaker 3: to buy the pass to be able to get into 848 00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:09,759 Speaker 3: the hot pools. Went there, spoke to the security, to 849 00:41:09,800 --> 00:41:14,520 Speaker 3: the receptionist, wanted to check the security camera footage. They 850 00:41:14,640 --> 00:41:17,360 Speaker 3: themselves did not check the security camera footage. It sounds 851 00:41:17,360 --> 00:41:18,759 Speaker 3: like they may have asked the staff to check the 852 00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:21,400 Speaker 3: security camera footage. I mean, I don't want to be critical, 853 00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:23,960 Speaker 3: but if you are trying to find the guy, maybe 854 00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:27,400 Speaker 3: you should be checking the security camera footage yourself. Right. Anyhow, 855 00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:30,359 Speaker 3: hopefully this will help a little bit. Quarter pass. We're 856 00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:32,719 Speaker 3: going to deal with the gas problem that appears to 857 00:41:32,719 --> 00:41:36,000 Speaker 3: be getting worse by the quarter and we'll be doing that. 858 00:41:36,239 --> 00:41:38,840 Speaker 3: And what I mean is by the quarter of the year, obviously, 859 00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:40,719 Speaker 3: I mean that's probably obviously you Anyway, I didn't need 860 00:41:40,719 --> 00:41:42,879 Speaker 3: to explain that deal with that in about seventeen minutes, 861 00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:44,839 Speaker 3: So I'm right now. It's eighteen past five. Other black 862 00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:47,800 Speaker 3: Caps T twenty World Cup campaign is basically over already 863 00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:51,239 Speaker 3: and they've only played two games. They've lost both of them. 864 00:41:51,360 --> 00:41:53,160 Speaker 3: The one they lost today was to the West Indies 865 00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:55,799 Speaker 3: by thirteen runs. Cricket commentator Brian Waddle is with us 866 00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:56,840 Speaker 3: now words, Hello. 867 00:41:57,440 --> 00:41:59,000 Speaker 8: Hill, how did it go so wrong? 868 00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:04,400 Speaker 24: They weren't prepared properly, they weren't match fit for the 869 00:42:04,440 --> 00:42:06,480 Speaker 24: first game, and they weren't able to pick it up 870 00:42:06,480 --> 00:42:09,359 Speaker 24: against one of the better sides. The West Indies playing 871 00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:12,040 Speaker 24: at home are difficult to play. They prayed pretty well 872 00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:15,160 Speaker 24: for the first eighteen over us. They had them in 873 00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:17,279 Speaker 24: trouble of one hundred and twelve for nine, but then 874 00:42:17,360 --> 00:42:20,800 Speaker 24: one player and thirty seven runs off two overs cost 875 00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:24,560 Speaker 24: them a chance to get when they got close, but 876 00:42:25,520 --> 00:42:29,160 Speaker 24: not close enough. Conditions were difficult and the West Indies 877 00:42:29,160 --> 00:42:30,200 Speaker 24: were too good for them. 878 00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:33,320 Speaker 3: Do you think that warm up games would have helped? 879 00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:37,400 Speaker 24: Of course they would. They would have been able to 880 00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:42,440 Speaker 24: play as a team together in conditions that are unusual 881 00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:45,320 Speaker 24: in that part of the world. You expect the grounds 882 00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:47,640 Speaker 24: and the West Indies in the past, as they have 883 00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:51,880 Speaker 24: been the bounty and quick, but now they are of 884 00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:55,799 Speaker 24: a very slow nature. The bounce is low and you've 885 00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:59,000 Speaker 24: got to get used to that and also get some rhythm. 886 00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:02,880 Speaker 24: You can't have players who haven't played match cricket for 887 00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:05,239 Speaker 24: three months coming out to play some of the best 888 00:43:05,280 --> 00:43:07,680 Speaker 24: sides in the world. In New Zealand unfortunately had a 889 00:43:07,719 --> 00:43:10,759 Speaker 24: tough group the West Indies in Afghanistan first up, and 890 00:43:11,120 --> 00:43:14,280 Speaker 24: that was going to be their downfall, so at least 891 00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:16,839 Speaker 24: one game. The Australians had the same issue that they 892 00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:20,240 Speaker 24: made their team up with some of their support staff 893 00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:23,640 Speaker 24: so that they had on ground match play and there's 894 00:43:23,680 --> 00:43:24,760 Speaker 24: no substitucte for match. 895 00:43:24,640 --> 00:43:28,120 Speaker 3: Blow absolutely what was that? Was that arrogance on their paths? 896 00:43:28,120 --> 00:43:28,760 Speaker 3: What do you reckon? 897 00:43:31,040 --> 00:43:33,399 Speaker 24: No, I don't believe it's arrogance. I think they were 898 00:43:33,440 --> 00:43:35,560 Speaker 24: trying to make as much as they could out of 899 00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:39,280 Speaker 24: a small space of time. But they've known for quite 900 00:43:39,280 --> 00:43:42,839 Speaker 24: some time the dates of this tournament. They have known 901 00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:45,520 Speaker 24: when they would have needed to play. They've had players 902 00:43:45,520 --> 00:43:49,160 Speaker 24: who were at the IPL so to, Australian so and 903 00:43:49,160 --> 00:43:51,759 Speaker 24: so to, but they still got there and were able 904 00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:54,400 Speaker 24: to play their warm up matches. New Zealand's planning, to 905 00:43:54,440 --> 00:43:57,759 Speaker 24: my mind, was well, we can do a good job 906 00:43:57,800 --> 00:44:00,440 Speaker 24: in the nets, we can practice and can conditions we 907 00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:03,239 Speaker 24: think they're going to be like. But in my mind 908 00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:07,640 Speaker 24: that doesn't take up match play. And so I suppose 909 00:44:07,680 --> 00:44:10,560 Speaker 24: you could. You could imagine it's a form of variance, 910 00:44:10,560 --> 00:44:12,640 Speaker 24: but I don't think New Zealand are like that when 911 00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:16,000 Speaker 24: it comes to these competitions. They've got a record that is, 912 00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:19,880 Speaker 24: you know, enviable they've had in past games or now 913 00:44:19,880 --> 00:44:22,759 Speaker 24: they're not going to make the last group. Well there 914 00:44:22,800 --> 00:44:26,439 Speaker 24: is a mathematical chance, but it stretches credibility to think 915 00:44:26,480 --> 00:44:29,680 Speaker 24: that Afghanistan won't win a game and New Zealand will 916 00:44:29,680 --> 00:44:32,520 Speaker 24: win and score you know, a net run rate to 917 00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:33,279 Speaker 24: suit them. 918 00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:35,680 Speaker 3: Yeah too right. I mean, I'm just going to encourage 919 00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:38,000 Speaker 3: you to let it. Let go any faint hope you 920 00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:39,920 Speaker 3: may have as a cricket fan, Otherwise your heart's going 921 00:44:39,960 --> 00:44:41,200 Speaker 3: to get broken. Just let it be broken. 922 00:44:41,239 --> 00:44:41,399 Speaker 25: Now. 923 00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:44,120 Speaker 3: It's Brian What, a longtime cricket commentator and hosts of 924 00:44:44,120 --> 00:44:46,879 Speaker 3: the Front Foot podcast five to twenty one. Let's deal 925 00:44:46,880 --> 00:44:48,239 Speaker 3: with Kevin Spacey next. 926 00:44:48,520 --> 00:44:51,800 Speaker 1: Digging deeper into the day's headlines, it's Heather duper c 927 00:44:51,960 --> 00:44:55,440 Speaker 1: Allen drive with one New Zealand let's get connected and 928 00:44:55,560 --> 00:44:56,040 Speaker 1: use dogs. 929 00:44:56,080 --> 00:44:56,919 Speaker 15: That'd be hither. 930 00:44:56,960 --> 00:44:59,000 Speaker 3: I'm all for the speed increases, but I fiend up 931 00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:00,799 Speaker 3: in an accident, I'm not sure or an ambulance would 932 00:45:00,800 --> 00:45:03,240 Speaker 3: turn up. And that is true, but you can always 933 00:45:03,239 --> 00:45:05,279 Speaker 3: call a nuba and you can get there like that. Hither. 934 00:45:05,360 --> 00:45:07,360 Speaker 3: I live close to Mount Albert in Marristed schools and 935 00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:08,880 Speaker 3: the kids come out of the schools all times of 936 00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:10,560 Speaker 3: the day, so it's stupid to make the slow speed 937 00:45:10,560 --> 00:45:12,799 Speaker 3: at only certain times the day. John fair enough, but 938 00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:14,160 Speaker 3: it is quite a wide gap. Like I think it's 939 00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:16,520 Speaker 3: two hours either side or something like that. If the 940 00:45:16,600 --> 00:45:18,400 Speaker 3: kids are still coming out at half past five, what 941 00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:21,000 Speaker 3: the hell are they doing at school? Five twenty four now, 942 00:45:22,239 --> 00:45:25,040 Speaker 3: I watched the Kevin Spacey interview that Pierce Walgan's done, 943 00:45:25,120 --> 00:45:27,600 Speaker 3: and look, I'm really sorry to say this, but because 944 00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:29,279 Speaker 3: I don't think he deserves us, but I reckon his 945 00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:31,600 Speaker 3: career is over. I don't know that he can resuscitate it. 946 00:45:31,600 --> 00:45:33,640 Speaker 3: There's a campaign at the moment to try to try 947 00:45:33,680 --> 00:45:36,120 Speaker 3: to resuscitate and get him back into acting. He's got 948 00:45:36,200 --> 00:45:38,960 Speaker 3: a few very high profile friends who are publicly advocating 949 00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:41,400 Speaker 3: for him to be given another chance, as people like 950 00:45:41,440 --> 00:45:45,360 Speaker 3: Liam Neeson, Sharon Stone, Stephen Fry and so on. But 951 00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:47,680 Speaker 3: I think actually he's done more harm than good with 952 00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:50,920 Speaker 3: this interview because, basically, in a nutshell, in this interview, 953 00:45:51,239 --> 00:45:53,480 Speaker 3: he admits that he was a creep. I mean, just 954 00:45:53,600 --> 00:45:56,239 Speaker 3: he says he was too handsy. It was basically making 955 00:45:56,480 --> 00:45:58,200 Speaker 3: his way of making a move on someone. Now, a 956 00:45:58,239 --> 00:46:00,480 Speaker 3: normal human being would probably try, you know, I don't know, 957 00:46:00,960 --> 00:46:04,239 Speaker 3: asking someone out on a date or asking for their 958 00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:06,680 Speaker 3: phone number. But because he was a Hollywood actor and 959 00:46:06,680 --> 00:46:08,120 Speaker 3: he was a big deal, and he admits that he 960 00:46:08,160 --> 00:46:10,680 Speaker 3: was arrogant, he just went straight in there with his hands. Now, 961 00:46:10,840 --> 00:46:12,480 Speaker 3: that is the headline that people are going to see 962 00:46:12,520 --> 00:46:14,960 Speaker 3: in this interview, right, They're not going to see that 963 00:46:15,320 --> 00:46:17,319 Speaker 3: all of the allegations have been disproven against him. They're 964 00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:19,759 Speaker 3: just going to see, I was too handsy. That's what 965 00:46:19,800 --> 00:46:21,840 Speaker 3: they're going to take away from it. And as for 966 00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:24,000 Speaker 3: the allegations, he has been cleared in all of the courts. 967 00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:26,319 Speaker 3: I mean, I think he's got one civil court case outstanding, 968 00:46:26,960 --> 00:46:29,359 Speaker 3: but it's a civil case being brought by a guy 969 00:46:29,440 --> 00:46:32,160 Speaker 3: who's already brought a criminal case and that was unproven, 970 00:46:32,200 --> 00:46:33,680 Speaker 3: so I don't know how this guy's going to go 971 00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:36,520 Speaker 3: in the civil case. So at the stage, basically Kevin 972 00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:40,520 Speaker 3: Spacey's had nothing proven against him, but don't Unfortunately, I 973 00:46:40,560 --> 00:46:42,239 Speaker 3: don't think that's going to be enough. And I don't 974 00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:43,879 Speaker 3: want you to get me wrong and think that I'm 975 00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:46,200 Speaker 3: cheering for the end of Kevin Spacey's career because I'm 976 00:46:46,560 --> 00:46:48,960 Speaker 3: he's a brilliant actor and I would like him to 977 00:46:48,960 --> 00:46:51,040 Speaker 3: be given another chance just for the quality of what 978 00:46:51,080 --> 00:46:53,319 Speaker 3: we watch, but also because I think he deserves another chance. 979 00:46:53,360 --> 00:46:56,200 Speaker 3: I mean, I don't think that being a creep warrants 980 00:46:56,239 --> 00:46:59,120 Speaker 3: being canceled like he has. He's lost everything, he's lost friends, 981 00:46:59,360 --> 00:47:01,840 Speaker 3: he hasn't heard from. What's the name who played Robin 982 00:47:02,080 --> 00:47:04,160 Speaker 3: his wife in the House of Carts or her name 983 00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:05,520 Speaker 3: is Robin. I don't really know any but I don't 984 00:47:05,520 --> 00:47:07,200 Speaker 3: want to know who she is now because she's obviously evil. 985 00:47:07,680 --> 00:47:09,960 Speaker 3: His beautiful home in Baltimore is going to go under 986 00:47:09,960 --> 00:47:11,839 Speaker 3: the hammer today in the States because he can't pay 987 00:47:11,880 --> 00:47:15,200 Speaker 3: his bills. He owes millions to lawyers for the court cases. 988 00:47:15,200 --> 00:47:17,200 Speaker 3: He says he's flat broke. He doesn't even have any 989 00:47:17,200 --> 00:47:20,080 Speaker 3: way of making money now because he's been canceled by Hollywood. 990 00:47:20,160 --> 00:47:21,960 Speaker 3: No one wants to hire him, and he was even 991 00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:24,439 Speaker 3: scrubbed out by Ridley Scott in a movie that he'd 992 00:47:24,440 --> 00:47:27,800 Speaker 3: finished shooting. They've got someone else and to play the 993 00:47:27,880 --> 00:47:30,560 Speaker 3: character and replace him. If there's one thing that we've 994 00:47:30,640 --> 00:47:33,359 Speaker 3: learned from Me Too and the cancel culture that came 995 00:47:33,400 --> 00:47:36,280 Speaker 3: with it, it's that the mob mentality in this world 996 00:47:36,360 --> 00:47:40,359 Speaker 3: is unforgiving. And even if he's done legally nothing wrong, 997 00:47:40,719 --> 00:47:43,400 Speaker 3: being a creep I think will probably be enough to 998 00:47:43,440 --> 00:47:44,160 Speaker 3: keep him canceled. 999 00:47:44,239 --> 00:47:47,200 Speaker 2: Unfortunately, ever, do for see Ellen. 1000 00:47:47,640 --> 00:47:49,759 Speaker 3: I don't know if you've been following the drama in 1001 00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:52,440 Speaker 3: Wellington over the sale of the airport shares and the council, 1002 00:47:52,520 --> 00:47:55,000 Speaker 3: but it has got you. See let me tell you 1003 00:47:55,040 --> 00:47:58,200 Speaker 3: about this, Okay. So basically, the reason I'm loving this 1004 00:47:58,320 --> 00:48:02,160 Speaker 3: situation is because it's split the left voting block. So 1005 00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:05,600 Speaker 3: the labor guys and the Green guys have formed this 1006 00:48:05,719 --> 00:48:09,600 Speaker 3: cabbal on Wellington Council and they just pushed through all 1007 00:48:09,640 --> 00:48:11,879 Speaker 3: of these stupid ideas one after the other. There's nothing 1008 00:48:11,920 --> 00:48:13,759 Speaker 3: you can do because there's enough of them to just 1009 00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:17,600 Speaker 3: keep pushing through the stupid ideas. But now three of 1010 00:48:17,640 --> 00:48:21,239 Speaker 3: the counselors, Niko we Neerer, he's a greenie, and then 1011 00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:26,719 Speaker 3: two labor guys, Noureddin Abdurahman and Ben McNulty. The three 1012 00:48:26,760 --> 00:48:30,320 Speaker 3: of them are so upset about the council voting recently 1013 00:48:30,360 --> 00:48:32,719 Speaker 3: to sell the airport shares that they are now saying 1014 00:48:32,760 --> 00:48:34,920 Speaker 3: they're no longer going to commit to voting in cohoots 1015 00:48:34,960 --> 00:48:36,960 Speaker 3: with the mayor and doing what she wants to do. 1016 00:48:37,360 --> 00:48:39,239 Speaker 3: And the reason that's across with the mayor is because 1017 00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:41,759 Speaker 3: the mayor had previously said she would not sell the 1018 00:48:41,800 --> 00:48:44,239 Speaker 3: airport shares, but and a whole bunch of other green 1019 00:48:44,239 --> 00:48:46,160 Speaker 3: councils as well. But now it's changed her mind, hasn't 1020 00:48:46,200 --> 00:48:48,759 Speaker 3: she And these three ain't got no respect for that 1021 00:48:48,840 --> 00:48:51,239 Speaker 3: kind of flip flopping. So they're breaking away. And that's 1022 00:48:51,239 --> 00:48:53,560 Speaker 3: a big problem for her because it's only because they've 1023 00:48:53,560 --> 00:48:55,759 Speaker 3: all been voting together as a green red block that 1024 00:48:55,760 --> 00:48:57,600 Speaker 3: they've been able to do all the crazy stuff like 1025 00:48:57,640 --> 00:49:00,240 Speaker 3: housing density and ruining the inner city roads and stuff 1026 00:49:00,239 --> 00:49:03,560 Speaker 3: like that. Without these three, Tory can't count on them 1027 00:49:03,600 --> 00:49:06,879 Speaker 3: doing what she wants them to do. She just she's 1028 00:49:06,920 --> 00:49:09,520 Speaker 3: gonna have to negotiate and water things down. How good 1029 00:49:09,600 --> 00:49:12,520 Speaker 3: is this? Finally some good news from Wellington City Council. 1030 00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:17,920 Speaker 3: We'll deal with the gas shortage decks. 1031 00:49:18,640 --> 00:49:22,480 Speaker 1: The day's newsmakers talk to Heather first, Heather duple c 1032 00:49:22,640 --> 00:49:26,040 Speaker 1: Allen drive with One New Zealand. Let's get connected and 1033 00:49:26,120 --> 00:49:29,120 Speaker 1: news talk as that'd be Donald. 1034 00:49:28,760 --> 00:49:34,520 Speaker 2: On me out the double shadow whiskey. They nummist.

It's gonna develop a voluntary gender pay 1039 00:49:44,480 --> 00:49:47,840 Speaker 3: reporting thing. Thank god it's a voluntary, and opt me 1040 00:49:47,960 --> 00:49:50,040 Speaker 3: out of that anyway. The Minister for Women is gonna 1041 00:49:50,040 --> 00:49:51,640 Speaker 3: be with us after six o'clock, talk us through that. 1042 00:49:51,680 --> 00:49:54,880 Speaker 3: The Huddles standing by, got Mark Sainsbury this evening with 1043 00:49:55,040 --> 00:49:57,520 Speaker 3: Richard Hill's. I think Mark Sainsbury's a huddle virgin, so 1044 00:49:57,600 --> 00:50:00,200 Speaker 3: we're gonna pop that cherry in just a tick. Whether 1045 00:50:00,200 --> 00:50:02,320 Speaker 3: the men need to learn to keep their hands to themselves. 1046 00:50:02,400 --> 00:50:05,359 Speaker 3: I'm seventy. Older men want to touch younger women. They 1047 00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:08,120 Speaker 3: believe their touch is warranted. It's not. It never has been, Judy, 1048 00:50:08,200 --> 00:50:10,880 Speaker 3: thank you for that. A little bit of news on 1049 00:50:11,400 --> 00:50:13,440 Speaker 3: the I don't know if you've been following this, but 1050 00:50:13,560 --> 00:50:16,080 Speaker 3: this has been fascinating to me. There's a US transgender 1051 00:50:16,120 --> 00:50:18,640 Speaker 3: swimmer called Leah Thomas. Now Leah has become kind of 1052 00:50:18,680 --> 00:50:22,400 Speaker 3: like the poster girl for transgender athletes. She has just 1053 00:50:22,520 --> 00:50:25,200 Speaker 3: lost any chance of competing in the Paris Olympics next month. 1054 00:50:25,280 --> 00:50:27,439 Speaker 3: She took a legal case she was banned from. First 1055 00:50:27,480 --> 00:50:29,759 Speaker 3: of all, she's banned by World Aquatics from swimming in 1056 00:50:29,800 --> 00:50:32,600 Speaker 3: the female category. So she tried to overturn that. Took 1057 00:50:32,600 --> 00:50:34,759 Speaker 3: a legal case against World Aquatics at the Court of 1058 00:50:34,960 --> 00:50:37,520 Speaker 3: Arbitration for Sport in the hopes of trying to get 1059 00:50:37,560 --> 00:50:41,040 Speaker 3: to the Paris Olympics. She's just lost. The court concluded 1060 00:50:41,080 --> 00:50:43,960 Speaker 3: that Thomas was simply not entitled to engage with eligibility 1061 00:50:44,040 --> 00:50:46,759 Speaker 3: to compete in World Aquatics competitions as someone who was 1062 00:50:46,840 --> 00:50:49,399 Speaker 3: no longer a member of US Swimming. Twenty three away 1063 00:50:49,440 --> 00:50:50,000 Speaker 3: from six. 1064 00:50:50,320 --> 00:50:51,480 Speaker 2: Heather duper Cela. 1065 00:50:51,680 --> 00:50:54,960 Speaker 3: New Zealand's energy troubles are getting worse. Gas supply dropped 1066 00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:57,640 Speaker 3: twelve percent in the March quarter. That's twelve percent down 1067 00:50:57,680 --> 00:50:59,440 Speaker 3: compared to the same time last year. This is the 1068 00:50:59,560 --> 00:51:03,680 Speaker 3: lowest quarterly net production since nineteen eighty five. Now, gas 1069 00:51:03,800 --> 00:51:05,800 Speaker 3: was down because of the decrease in overall production, but 1070 00:51:05,880 --> 00:51:08,680 Speaker 3: also a planned outage in the Poor Hookurta gas field, 1071 00:51:08,719 --> 00:51:11,200 Speaker 3: and this has led to a staggering ninety nine percent 1072 00:51:11,320 --> 00:51:14,839 Speaker 3: rise in coal being burnt for electricity. Also, greenhouse gas 1073 00:51:14,880 --> 00:51:17,200 Speaker 3: emissions are up twenty one point five percent. John Kidd 1074 00:51:17,239 --> 00:51:19,680 Speaker 3: is the director and head of research at Analytica and 1075 00:51:19,760 --> 00:51:23,240 Speaker 3: with us. Now, hey, John, even here are we in trouble. 1076 00:51:26,600 --> 00:51:32,080 Speaker 23: We're in the stress system. We have a structurally short 1077 00:51:32,120 --> 00:51:34,399 Speaker 23: of energy full stop. So it's often lost on people 1078 00:51:34,440 --> 00:51:36,840 Speaker 23: that we don't have enough energy in the country to 1079 00:51:36,960 --> 00:51:39,439 Speaker 23: be able to support our demands, so we do lie 1080 00:51:39,600 --> 00:51:42,239 Speaker 23: on international markets. Anyway, think about the card of your drive. 1081 00:51:42,280 --> 00:51:44,680 Speaker 23: There's nothing in the fuel tentk of that car. Those 1082 00:51:44,719 --> 00:51:48,120 Speaker 23: of us drive petrol engines, which is it's made domestically. 1083 00:51:48,239 --> 00:51:50,880 Speaker 23: So we import energy and when we're short, as we 1084 00:51:50,960 --> 00:51:54,840 Speaker 23: are increasingly short more broadly, then we need to import 1085 00:51:54,880 --> 00:51:57,600 Speaker 23: more energy to keep ourselves feed from day to day. 1086 00:51:57,800 --> 00:52:00,319 Speaker 23: So now your question is how are we in trouble? Well, 1087 00:52:00,440 --> 00:52:03,400 Speaker 23: you know, we're becoming sure of indigenous energy and therefore 1088 00:52:03,400 --> 00:52:05,680 Speaker 23: we're having to rely on international energy more and. 1089 00:52:05,719 --> 00:52:08,520 Speaker 3: The international energy, obviously is coal that we're pumping into hunt. 1090 00:52:08,560 --> 00:52:11,440 Speaker 23: They right, that's right, yeah, And that's a function of 1091 00:52:11,480 --> 00:52:13,520 Speaker 23: a few things as well. So you've got you do 1092 00:52:13,640 --> 00:52:15,920 Speaker 23: have lower gas coming into the system, and gas is 1093 00:52:15,920 --> 00:52:18,400 Speaker 23: a preferable fuel of coal. Of course, coal is the 1094 00:52:18,440 --> 00:52:20,720 Speaker 23: fuel of last result if you like, for the elytricity sector, 1095 00:52:21,120 --> 00:52:23,200 Speaker 23: but you've got other factors in there as well. We 1096 00:52:23,280 --> 00:52:25,879 Speaker 23: had two very wet years last year and the year before, 1097 00:52:25,960 --> 00:52:28,440 Speaker 23: and that's often lost on people too, So we had 1098 00:52:28,440 --> 00:52:29,680 Speaker 23: a lot of hydro on the system. We had a 1099 00:52:29,680 --> 00:52:32,520 Speaker 23: lot of higher ranking pupil in the system, and we 1100 00:52:32,560 --> 00:52:34,480 Speaker 23: don't have it this year. We're well blown average for 1101 00:52:34,560 --> 00:52:37,359 Speaker 23: this time of the year the hydro and the last 1102 00:52:37,360 --> 00:52:39,600 Speaker 23: two years also we had very soft heart and we're 1103 00:52:39,640 --> 00:52:43,560 Speaker 23: now starting to see real demand growth coming through in electricity. 1104 00:52:43,680 --> 00:52:45,439 Speaker 23: So if you put all that together, we need more 1105 00:52:45,680 --> 00:52:47,480 Speaker 23: of this stuff to come out of the wires at 1106 00:52:47,520 --> 00:52:49,239 Speaker 23: the end of the day. And if we don't have 1107 00:52:49,640 --> 00:52:51,359 Speaker 23: gas to come into the system, we don't have hydro, 1108 00:52:51,560 --> 00:52:53,360 Speaker 23: then we need to look to something else. And unfortunately 1109 00:52:53,400 --> 00:52:55,040 Speaker 23: that's so John. 1110 00:52:55,080 --> 00:52:56,959 Speaker 3: If we're down on the hydra lakes at the moment 1111 00:52:57,200 --> 00:52:59,600 Speaker 3: and we're dropping in the gas, does that mean And 1112 00:52:59,640 --> 00:53:01,560 Speaker 3: there's a thank you so much that Huntley can burn. 1113 00:53:01,600 --> 00:53:03,400 Speaker 3: Does that mean that we're going to have power outages 1114 00:53:03,440 --> 00:53:03,799 Speaker 3: this winter? 1115 00:53:05,719 --> 00:53:07,400 Speaker 23: That's been a risk for a while. We've been concerned 1116 00:53:07,400 --> 00:53:11,799 Speaker 23: about that for some time. You know, there's it does 1117 00:53:11,880 --> 00:53:14,680 Speaker 23: boil down to the peak. So when we are in 1118 00:53:14,719 --> 00:53:18,120 Speaker 23: the coldest period of winter, sojer this home of night 1119 00:53:18,360 --> 00:53:20,640 Speaker 23: and into the evening, and we don't have much wind 1120 00:53:20,680 --> 00:53:23,120 Speaker 23: coming through the system, obviously soul is not a factor, 1121 00:53:23,200 --> 00:53:25,319 Speaker 23: then we need to call on what is available to us. 1122 00:53:25,360 --> 00:53:28,400 Speaker 23: And we've already been told by the system operator transfer 1123 00:53:28,600 --> 00:53:31,040 Speaker 23: And it's a general concern across the sector that this winter, 1124 00:53:31,520 --> 00:53:34,000 Speaker 23: during those periods of what we call dunkle flout, which 1125 00:53:34,040 --> 00:53:35,800 Speaker 23: is you know, the doldrums where we don't have that 1126 00:53:35,880 --> 00:53:38,279 Speaker 23: wind and there is no sun and we're constrained with 1127 00:53:38,360 --> 00:53:40,759 Speaker 23: other afields coming into the system, then there is the 1128 00:53:40,840 --> 00:53:42,200 Speaker 23: risk that we will not have enough juice to be 1129 00:53:42,239 --> 00:53:44,040 Speaker 23: able to meet thought about okay. 1130 00:53:43,840 --> 00:53:46,280 Speaker 3: How far how long before we call this a crisis. 1131 00:53:48,400 --> 00:53:51,000 Speaker 23: Crisis just isn't a word that really enters the sector's head, 1132 00:53:51,360 --> 00:53:52,960 Speaker 23: to be frank, you know, it's a matter of just 1133 00:53:53,080 --> 00:53:56,040 Speaker 23: making things work. There will be many things that can 1134 00:53:56,080 --> 00:53:58,960 Speaker 23: be done along the way to help manage the situation, 1135 00:53:59,280 --> 00:54:01,520 Speaker 23: and you know seeing us in the gas sector as well. 1136 00:54:02,120 --> 00:54:04,719 Speaker 23: What's often lost in all the noise of this is 1137 00:54:04,760 --> 00:54:07,440 Speaker 23: that we're seeing some pretty dramatic side responses here. So 1138 00:54:07,600 --> 00:54:10,879 Speaker 23: methodex is our biggest energy user nominally by far, they're 1139 00:54:10,920 --> 00:54:13,919 Speaker 23: well down on that consumption now and it's the worst 1140 00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:16,880 Speaker 23: kind of an outside response. I's a massive export, a 1141 00:54:16,920 --> 00:54:19,839 Speaker 23: billion or exporter out of Taranaki who can't run at 1142 00:54:20,120 --> 00:54:22,359 Speaker 23: for capacity because they don't have the fuel available to them. 1143 00:54:22,400 --> 00:54:24,040 Speaker 23: So you know what I'm trying to say is the 1144 00:54:24,080 --> 00:54:27,640 Speaker 23: system will adjust. Unfortunately it's not a cost of sex 1145 00:54:27,760 --> 00:54:30,359 Speaker 23: size and demand will generally come off to help meat 1146 00:54:30,400 --> 00:54:32,760 Speaker 23: supply as well as supply meeting demand. 1147 00:54:33,560 --> 00:54:36,000 Speaker 3: Well here's hoping, John, Thank you so much, really appreciated. 1148 00:54:36,080 --> 00:54:39,000 Speaker 3: John Kid, director and head of research at Analytic at. 1149 00:54:39,120 --> 00:54:41,200 Speaker 3: Just to remind you why demand will come off is 1150 00:54:41,280 --> 00:54:43,839 Speaker 3: because we're asking some of our big project our big 1151 00:54:43,960 --> 00:54:47,520 Speaker 3: manufacturers to stop their work when we need them to. 1152 00:54:47,800 --> 00:54:49,760 Speaker 3: That should not be happening in a first world country. 1153 00:54:49,840 --> 00:54:50,920 Speaker 3: Nineteen away from six. 1154 00:54:51,480 --> 00:54:55,759 Speaker 1: The Huddle with New Zealand Southeby's international Realty, unparalleled reach 1155 00:54:55,960 --> 00:54:56,560 Speaker 1: and results. 1156 00:54:56,560 --> 00:54:58,760 Speaker 3: I'm huddled with me. This evening we have Richard Hill's 1157 00:54:58,800 --> 00:55:01,839 Speaker 3: Auckland counselor and Mark Sainsbury Men's Health Week Director.

I had to take a sedative before I came on, 1163 00:55:12,239 --> 00:55:13,680 Speaker 18: and I was just getting so excited. 1164 00:55:15,000 --> 00:55:17,640 Speaker 3: I like the fact that you've come in all hot 1165 00:55:17,719 --> 00:55:19,960 Speaker 3: and just given us a hard time. I appreciate it. 1166 00:55:20,040 --> 00:55:22,080 Speaker 21: She's way nicer than she pretend she is. 1167 00:55:22,160 --> 00:55:23,360 Speaker 3: This is what Richard has to do. He has to 1168 00:55:23,400 --> 00:55:25,520 Speaker 3: go around all his lefty friends saying she's not actually 1169 00:55:25,600 --> 00:55:26,799 Speaker 3: that bad. She's really nice. 1170 00:55:27,960 --> 00:55:29,440 Speaker 21: She tells me that she pays me to do that. 1171 00:55:29,560 --> 00:55:29,719 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1172 00:55:29,800 --> 00:55:31,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, and they still don't believe it. 1173 00:55:31,239 --> 00:55:31,560 Speaker 23: Ridgid. 1174 00:55:31,840 --> 00:55:33,399 Speaker 3: The speed limit reversals, how good. 1175 00:55:34,760 --> 00:55:37,040 Speaker 21: I think it's a bit weird that they are all 1176 00:55:37,040 --> 00:55:39,800 Speaker 21: about localism, telling you know, local councils that can do 1177 00:55:39,920 --> 00:55:42,120 Speaker 21: everything three waters, and then they're going to make us 1178 00:55:42,160 --> 00:55:45,560 Speaker 21: spend tons of money to reverse all these changes right across. 1179 00:55:45,760 --> 00:55:47,440 Speaker 3: You shouldn't have done it in the first place, but 1180 00:55:47,520 --> 00:55:48,839 Speaker 3: you spent money in the first place. 1181 00:55:49,040 --> 00:55:50,920 Speaker 21: Yeah, I know, but most of it was the requests 1182 00:55:50,920 --> 00:55:52,680 Speaker 21: I get from my community from school, some of them 1183 00:55:52,680 --> 00:55:54,440 Speaker 21: are angry that we haven't put it in. You've got 1184 00:55:54,480 --> 00:55:58,160 Speaker 21: town centers, all of it has been consulted on. I 1185 00:55:58,200 --> 00:56:00,600 Speaker 21: don't know what they keep talking about. These blanket restrictions, 1186 00:56:00,800 --> 00:56:03,920 Speaker 21: they'll blanket possibilities. They were actually brought in by a 1187 00:56:04,000 --> 00:56:06,839 Speaker 21: national before Labor Craig Foss and others led a program 1188 00:56:06,920 --> 00:56:09,319 Speaker 21: around safe for communities because we will have we're twenty 1189 00:56:09,480 --> 00:56:11,960 Speaker 21: ninth out of thirty three OECD countries for deaths and 1190 00:56:12,000 --> 00:56:12,720 Speaker 21: serious injuries. 1191 00:56:12,800 --> 00:56:14,680 Speaker 3: So from what I saw, it sounded to me like 1192 00:56:15,600 --> 00:56:18,480 Speaker 3: it has to reverse unless the locals want it right. 1193 00:56:18,560 --> 00:56:20,880 Speaker 3: So there's still the opportunity for localism. 1194 00:56:20,560 --> 00:56:22,759 Speaker 21: Right, so we'll have to know. Well, what I read 1195 00:56:22,800 --> 00:56:24,279 Speaker 21: from today is that we've got to reverse them all, 1196 00:56:24,400 --> 00:56:29,280 Speaker 21: then consult again. We've already consulted like schools, everyone, local 1197 00:56:29,400 --> 00:56:32,920 Speaker 21: town centers around Devenport, everyone. You know, the submissions were 1198 00:56:32,920 --> 00:56:35,160 Speaker 21: in favor of those things, so it's kind of weird 1199 00:56:35,360 --> 00:56:37,279 Speaker 21: that we have to remove them all. I don't know 1200 00:56:37,480 --> 00:56:38,920 Speaker 21: how much is going to cost to do that. And 1201 00:56:38,960 --> 00:56:39,920 Speaker 21: then consulting says. 1202 00:56:39,760 --> 00:56:41,480 Speaker 3: Are you ever being consulted on a speed limit? 1203 00:56:42,680 --> 00:56:42,719 Speaker 1: No? 1204 00:56:43,280 --> 00:56:45,520 Speaker 3: No, me neither. It's weird that Richard is getting all 1205 00:56:45,560 --> 00:56:49,520 Speaker 3: this consultation. Are you into the reversal? 1206 00:56:50,600 --> 00:56:52,800 Speaker 18: Well, look, I mean, you know, I like driving. I 1207 00:56:52,880 --> 00:56:55,840 Speaker 18: think some of the roads if if they could have 1208 00:56:55,920 --> 00:56:57,719 Speaker 18: a high speed limit. I mean, like those big the 1209 00:56:57,800 --> 00:57:01,080 Speaker 18: new big huge motorways. So why can expressway and things 1210 00:57:01,120 --> 00:57:03,640 Speaker 18: like that. I've got no problem with the highest speed 1211 00:57:03,719 --> 00:57:07,279 Speaker 18: limit on that. Our biggest problem here is we've just 1212 00:57:07,360 --> 00:57:09,320 Speaker 18: got to improve our driving. You we're going to have 1213 00:57:09,440 --> 00:57:11,680 Speaker 18: highest speed limits. That's the biggest problem on the New Zealand. 1214 00:57:11,840 --> 00:57:13,719 Speaker 3: Are you of the view saying so that we are 1215 00:57:13,800 --> 00:57:15,200 Speaker 3: not good drivers in this country? 1216 00:57:16,400 --> 00:57:18,600 Speaker 18: Look, we all think suffer a bit of the problem 1217 00:57:18,600 --> 00:57:20,760 Speaker 18: that we think we're reading good drivers. I'm guilty about 1218 00:57:20,760 --> 00:57:23,000 Speaker 18: myself and then you sort of catch yourself out doing 1219 00:57:23,080 --> 00:57:26,600 Speaker 18: something stupid, you know, and and you change, I think 1220 00:57:26,680 --> 00:57:29,600 Speaker 18: as you get older. But there's that lot of aggression 1221 00:57:29,680 --> 00:57:31,680 Speaker 18: on the road, you know, and that sort of And 1222 00:57:31,800 --> 00:57:34,320 Speaker 18: I remember talking to a psychiatrist about it once on 1223 00:57:34,400 --> 00:57:35,160 Speaker 18: a radio. 1224 00:57:34,960 --> 00:57:36,960 Speaker 23: Show I had, and he said, when you get into. 1225 00:57:36,800 --> 00:57:40,520 Speaker 18: A car, it's like your own little space, you know. 1226 00:57:40,680 --> 00:57:43,479 Speaker 18: And it's the same as you know, people do weird 1227 00:57:43,560 --> 00:57:46,200 Speaker 18: things inside their cars, you know, you know, you drive 1228 00:57:46,280 --> 00:57:47,800 Speaker 18: past and someone's picking their nose. 1229 00:57:48,320 --> 00:57:52,200 Speaker 22: Why because they're oblivious reading outside? 1230 00:57:52,720 --> 00:57:52,959 Speaker 24: Yeah? 1231 00:57:54,560 --> 00:57:54,960 Speaker 3: Yeah too? 1232 00:57:55,080 --> 00:57:55,240 Speaker 10: Right? 1233 00:57:55,520 --> 00:57:56,280 Speaker 3: Do you do these things? 1234 00:57:56,400 --> 00:57:57,200 Speaker 18: Richard know? 1235 00:57:57,280 --> 00:57:59,480 Speaker 21: I'm mostly on the bus so I can read my 1236 00:57:59,560 --> 00:58:01,560 Speaker 21: emails and do a tweet. 1237 00:58:01,680 --> 00:58:02,080 Speaker 8: Yeah, I do. 1238 00:58:02,280 --> 00:58:02,440 Speaker 4: I do. 1239 00:58:02,560 --> 00:58:04,240 Speaker 3: The thing says are where I sing in the car? 1240 00:58:04,480 --> 00:58:06,760 Speaker 3: I think that nobody's going to see the psycho singing 1241 00:58:06,800 --> 00:58:07,560 Speaker 3: over there to do that. 1242 00:58:08,280 --> 00:58:09,800 Speaker 21: Then you look and there's a bus of ninety people 1243 00:58:09,840 --> 00:58:10,400 Speaker 21: looking down there. 1244 00:58:10,440 --> 00:58:11,240 Speaker 7: I haven't looked at you. 1245 00:58:12,280 --> 00:58:13,760 Speaker 3: All right, we'll take a break with you guys.

It shows the huge 1249 00:58:21,440 --> 00:58:23,880 Speaker 3: difference between what some people in local government get paid 1250 00:58:23,920 --> 00:58:27,280 Speaker 3: in others like Auckland's mayor gets about three hundred thousand, 1251 00:58:27,400 --> 00:58:30,200 Speaker 3: but then counselors in Stratford get twenty three thousand dollars. 1252 00:58:30,640 --> 00:58:33,400 Speaker 3: What do you think is the right level? Like should 1253 00:58:33,440 --> 00:58:35,000 Speaker 3: councilors be paid less or more? 1254 00:58:36,760 --> 00:58:36,800 Speaker 1: What? 1255 00:58:37,640 --> 00:58:39,400 Speaker 18: Less than less than the maya? 1256 00:58:39,720 --> 00:58:40,640 Speaker 2: Low the lower end? 1257 00:58:40,720 --> 00:58:43,040 Speaker 3: Like should we be looking at paying counselors around about 1258 00:58:43,040 --> 00:58:45,200 Speaker 3: twenty three thousand dollars. You're making it a job for 1259 00:58:45,280 --> 00:58:48,720 Speaker 3: people who are competent but don't need it for the money, 1260 00:58:48,760 --> 00:58:50,960 Speaker 3: or should we be lifting it and then tracting better people. 1261 00:58:50,760 --> 00:58:52,800 Speaker 18: In well you see, I mean this is a good thing, 1262 00:58:52,920 --> 00:58:56,280 Speaker 18: Richard Syre, because you look at Stretford, you're getting twenty 1263 00:58:56,320 --> 00:58:59,400 Speaker 18: three thousand. Now a council in Auckland is getting paid 1264 00:58:59,840 --> 00:59:02,080 Speaker 18: more more than four times that. So are they doing 1265 00:59:02,160 --> 00:59:05,760 Speaker 18: four times for work or four times small responsibility? Of 1266 00:59:05,840 --> 00:59:08,720 Speaker 18: course it just as Stratford count afford to pay the Stratford. 1267 00:59:08,920 --> 00:59:11,320 Speaker 21: I worked out if it was based on population, I'd 1268 00:59:11,320 --> 00:59:13,200 Speaker 21: be paid four and a half million dollars a year 1269 00:59:13,440 --> 00:59:16,760 Speaker 21: because Stratford has we have more staff members than Stratford 1270 00:59:16,840 --> 00:59:18,120 Speaker 21: has their nine thousand pop. 1271 00:59:18,280 --> 00:59:20,120 Speaker 3: I mean you would be doing more work than a 1272 00:59:20,200 --> 00:59:22,480 Speaker 3: counselor in Stratford, right, yeah, So it's definitely. 1273 00:59:22,200 --> 00:59:27,360 Speaker 21: In place, full time, nighttime, weekend job like And you know, 1274 00:59:27,440 --> 00:59:29,200 Speaker 21: I think most people don't realize and this is not 1275 00:59:29,280 --> 00:59:32,280 Speaker 21: defending counselors because everyone hates counsel anyway, but you know, 1276 00:59:32,400 --> 00:59:34,720 Speaker 21: we have three times the population of an MP does 1277 00:59:34,800 --> 00:59:38,000 Speaker 21: in our ward. So I'm dealing with request constantly and 1278 00:59:38,360 --> 00:59:40,200 Speaker 21: we don't have like an office like an MP does 1279 00:59:40,240 --> 00:59:42,800 Speaker 21: of people that just I don't know, do our comms 1280 00:59:42,840 --> 00:59:45,200 Speaker 21: and stuff for us. So I think it has to 1281 00:59:45,240 --> 00:59:47,560 Speaker 21: be based on effort. I know there's some counselors that 1282 00:59:47,760 --> 00:59:49,640 Speaker 21: do not put in the effort, but it is a 1283 00:59:49,720 --> 00:59:52,160 Speaker 21: name name Richard name names I will not but it 1284 00:59:52,280 --> 00:59:55,680 Speaker 21: is a significant role and in some areas maybe you 1285 00:59:55,800 --> 00:59:58,160 Speaker 21: do need to look at That's why amalgamation I think 1286 00:59:58,280 --> 01:00:00,800 Speaker 21: is a good thing, because you have, you know, people 1287 01:00:00,880 --> 01:00:03,560 Speaker 21: working full time instead of just like a oh go 1288 01:00:03,680 --> 01:00:05,760 Speaker 21: on the Wednesday meeting and you're not really thinking about 1289 01:00:05,800 --> 01:00:06,520 Speaker 21: the council at all. 1290 01:00:06,720 --> 01:00:06,919 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1291 01:00:07,080 --> 01:00:08,880 Speaker 18: Is it expected to be a full time job? 1292 01:00:10,480 --> 01:00:12,560 Speaker 21: Yes, we're paid over one hundred thousand dollars. I am 1293 01:00:12,560 --> 01:00:15,240 Speaker 21: assuming most people would expect us to be full time 1294 01:00:15,280 --> 01:00:16,200 Speaker 21: and I definitely. 1295 01:00:16,040 --> 01:00:18,240 Speaker 3: What about in Wellington? Saying so, is that expected to 1296 01:00:18,280 --> 01:00:19,760 Speaker 3: be a full time job for your counselors? 1297 01:00:21,320 --> 01:00:24,000 Speaker 18: And I think it is because I'm so surprised the 1298 01:00:24,080 --> 01:00:25,800 Speaker 18: MIA and Wellington on he gets one hundred and eighty 1299 01:00:25,840 --> 01:00:28,400 Speaker 18: three thousand, We've got a two hundred do down here. 1300 01:00:28,520 --> 01:00:31,280 Speaker 3: No, I don't think No, I don't think you do, 1301 01:00:31,520 --> 01:00:33,960 Speaker 3: saying so, we'll have a little chat about what Toy 1302 01:00:34,040 --> 01:00:35,760 Speaker 3: has been up to.

We've seen people who have behaved 1311 01:00:58,120 --> 01:01:01,640 Speaker 18: appallingly doing and it just sort of got waved away. 1312 01:01:01,920 --> 01:01:06,080 Speaker 18: But he's he's been out there, it's in public. It's 1313 01:01:07,040 --> 01:01:09,560 Speaker 18: can you possibly come back? I just think it'd be 1314 01:01:09,680 --> 01:01:12,200 Speaker 18: so hard, right, Yeah, I think he should. 1315 01:01:12,600 --> 01:01:14,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, as my boss said to me today, Richard, I 1316 01:01:14,880 --> 01:01:17,240 Speaker 3: think he should too. Right, he hasn't done anything that's 1317 01:01:17,280 --> 01:01:19,760 Speaker 3: been proven to be wrong. But as my boss sat today, 1318 01:01:19,880 --> 01:01:21,600 Speaker 3: but who's going to put money behind this guy? Who's 1319 01:01:21,640 --> 01:01:23,440 Speaker 3: going to be like, I'm spending millions and millions and 1320 01:01:23,480 --> 01:01:25,440 Speaker 3: millions of dollars on a film and you're the guy 1321 01:01:25,520 --> 01:01:26,360 Speaker 3: that's going to star in it. 1322 01:01:26,760 --> 01:01:29,040 Speaker 21: Well, that's the thing that the public will be. The 1323 01:01:29,080 --> 01:01:31,960 Speaker 21: public they're going to put their dollar where they want to. 1324 01:01:32,120 --> 01:01:33,280 Speaker 3: I don't watch him, would you? 1325 01:01:34,000 --> 01:01:34,959 Speaker 21: I'm not sure I didn't. 1326 01:01:35,480 --> 01:01:37,120 Speaker 3: I did watch House of Cards and didn't you think 1327 01:01:37,160 --> 01:01:37,680 Speaker 3: he was awesome? 1328 01:01:38,480 --> 01:01:39,800 Speaker 7: Well, I don't know that. 1329 01:01:40,240 --> 01:01:42,560 Speaker 21: I didn't watch the interview, but having an interview with 1330 01:01:42,600 --> 01:01:44,560 Speaker 21: Piers Morgan is probably a bit of a red flag 1331 01:01:44,760 --> 01:01:46,960 Speaker 21: at this point of time, do you think so? 1332 01:01:47,440 --> 01:01:47,600 Speaker 24: Well? 1333 01:01:47,680 --> 01:01:49,560 Speaker 21: I think Piers Morgan tries to be the kind of 1334 01:01:50,440 --> 01:01:52,880 Speaker 21: anti everything guy at the moment, doesn't he try and 1335 01:01:52,960 --> 01:01:56,600 Speaker 21: rack everyone up? So I didn't watch the interview. It 1336 01:01:56,680 --> 01:01:58,760 Speaker 21: will be up to the people, like they're always going 1337 01:01:58,840 --> 01:02:00,919 Speaker 21: to put in my and they you know, you see 1338 01:02:02,080 --> 01:02:04,200 Speaker 21: all sorts of celebrities go up and down in their careers, 1339 01:02:04,240 --> 01:02:06,880 Speaker 21: and that's largely because, as you say, they'd. 1340 01:02:06,760 --> 01:02:07,960 Speaker 7: Go and pull the community and go. 1341 01:02:08,000 --> 01:02:09,800 Speaker 21: Would you watch a movie with X person in it 1342 01:02:10,120 --> 01:02:11,920 Speaker 21: and they disappear or they might come back? 1343 01:02:12,040 --> 01:02:12,400 Speaker 22: So right? 1344 01:02:13,000 --> 01:02:14,439 Speaker 3: So is are you a little worried about the gas 1345 01:02:14,480 --> 01:02:16,360 Speaker 3: situation and what's going to happen with the power this winter? 1346 01:02:17,640 --> 01:02:21,520 Speaker 18: Yeah? Yeah, I mean this whole you know, I keep 1347 01:02:21,560 --> 01:02:23,360 Speaker 18: trying to get my head around the whole gas situation. 1348 01:02:23,480 --> 01:02:25,160 Speaker 18: I've knowing people have been in the sort of the 1349 01:02:25,240 --> 01:02:28,760 Speaker 18: gas industry. And I remember at the times when you know, 1350 01:02:28,800 --> 01:02:31,800 Speaker 18: when they're cutting back on exploration and that that whole 1351 01:02:31,880 --> 01:02:34,320 Speaker 18: argument of you know, why we're burning filthy stuff from 1352 01:02:34,640 --> 01:02:38,000 Speaker 18: Indonesia when we should be even you know, it's more 1353 01:02:39,000 --> 01:02:43,200 Speaker 18: ecologically sound to sort of harvest it from here. So 1354 01:02:43,640 --> 01:02:46,040 Speaker 18: but that whole I mean, that's listening to listening to 1355 01:02:46,120 --> 01:02:49,160 Speaker 18: that guy he was It was actually quite frightening, wasn't it. 1356 01:02:49,200 --> 01:02:52,200 Speaker 18: But if you're talking about major industries can't actually churn 1357 01:02:52,280 --> 01:02:54,200 Speaker 18: out what they need to to keep the country going. 1358 01:02:56,320 --> 01:02:58,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree, I reckon that is the word that 1359 01:02:58,960 --> 01:03:01,000 Speaker 3: I that I think sums it up. I'm a little 1360 01:03:01,000 --> 01:03:02,840 Speaker 3: bit scared of where this is going, Richard, aren't you. 1361 01:03:03,360 --> 01:03:05,240 Speaker 21: Yeah, I think we do need to look at what 1362 01:03:05,760 --> 01:03:08,200 Speaker 21: the whole world is going is dropping off coal, so 1363 01:03:08,720 --> 01:03:12,080 Speaker 21: us you're we're not going to Well, we only have 1364 01:03:12,280 --> 01:03:14,640 Speaker 21: popped up in twenty twenty two, and the using figures 1365 01:03:14,680 --> 01:03:16,640 Speaker 21: this year from a quarter last year was our lowest 1366 01:03:16,680 --> 01:03:19,080 Speaker 21: in thirty years. So I think people are trying to 1367 01:03:19,120 --> 01:03:21,400 Speaker 21: use a bit of shock taxics by saying this is 1368 01:03:21,760 --> 01:03:23,560 Speaker 21: one hundred percent worse than last year. Well, if last 1369 01:03:23,600 --> 01:03:26,880 Speaker 21: year was our lowest since I was off an then 1370 01:03:27,000 --> 01:03:29,040 Speaker 21: let's not go over the top. But we do need 1371 01:03:29,080 --> 01:03:31,480 Speaker 21: to look at that time. How do we be resilient 1372 01:03:31,560 --> 01:03:33,880 Speaker 21: in this time when we are decarbonizing. You look at 1373 01:03:33,880 --> 01:03:37,080 Speaker 21: all the businesses Fonterra are you know, changing all their 1374 01:03:37,120 --> 01:03:39,480 Speaker 21: coal boilers to electric and schools are doing that. But 1375 01:03:39,840 --> 01:03:42,160 Speaker 21: you don't want to flip it that you're electrifying everything 1376 01:03:42,200 --> 01:03:44,840 Speaker 21: and then having to use coal. That's right, but I 1377 01:03:44,920 --> 01:03:47,040 Speaker 21: think there is that we just need a bit of 1378 01:03:47,120 --> 01:03:49,880 Speaker 21: sense in there. But I honestly believe if all the 1379 01:03:49,920 --> 01:03:52,439 Speaker 21: parties around Parliament could work together instead of this back 1380 01:03:52,480 --> 01:03:54,640 Speaker 21: and forth all the time, because I think if you 1381 01:03:54,720 --> 01:03:58,040 Speaker 21: have a series of facts, then you don't upset these 1382 01:03:58,040 --> 01:03:59,960 Speaker 21: communities and people can feel like you're. 1383 01:04:00,080 --> 01:04:02,360 Speaker 3: Agreeing how you're going to do it and work towards it. 1384 01:04:02,400 --> 01:04:04,080 Speaker 3: Year I've had a text saying exactly the same thing. 1385 01:04:04,120 --> 01:04:05,480 Speaker 3: I think you bang on guys, it's so good to 1386 01:04:05,520 --> 01:04:07,440 Speaker 3: talk to you.

Now 1402 01:04:54,920 --> 01:04:58,360 Speaker 3: on an average consistently above two twenty per Mega what hour. 1403 01:04:58,840 --> 01:05:02,080 Speaker 3: Just our industry this year cost thirty five million more 1404 01:05:02,160 --> 01:05:03,680 Speaker 3: than we had planned. And this will be the end 1405 01:05:03,760 --> 01:05:06,200 Speaker 3: to the New Zealand manufacturing sector. And it's really unfortunate. 1406 01:05:06,240 --> 01:05:08,680 Speaker 3: I hope that doesn't happen, but unfortunately it sounds very 1407 01:05:08,760 --> 01:05:13,040 Speaker 3: much like it may do. Heather. Kevin Spacey, here's some 1408 01:05:13,120 --> 01:05:16,400 Speaker 3: hope for him for a redemption story. David Reckons in 1409 01:05:16,480 --> 01:05:18,280 Speaker 3: five years is going to get a minor supporting role. 1410 01:05:18,360 --> 01:05:20,720 Speaker 3: People will marvel at how good he is because he is, 1411 01:05:20,840 --> 01:05:23,080 Speaker 3: and then it will spiral to main roles. And as 1412 01:05:23,200 --> 01:05:26,680 Speaker 3: David says, Hollywood loves a redemption story. He's hoping the 1413 01:05:26,840 --> 01:05:30,080 Speaker 3: UK nurse Lucy Letby, who murdered those seven babies, is 1414 01:05:30,120 --> 01:05:33,360 Speaker 3: back before the courts for another allegation of murdering another baby. 1415 01:05:33,400 --> 01:05:36,480 Speaker 3: This one they're doing again because the jury in the 1416 01:05:36,560 --> 01:05:39,640 Speaker 3: first trial couldn't decide on this particular baby. The court's 1417 01:05:39,640 --> 01:05:42,200 Speaker 3: been and listen, this is interesting because there was that 1418 01:05:42,360 --> 01:05:45,800 Speaker 3: New York Post article, very very big article, really questioning 1419 01:05:45,840 --> 01:05:47,840 Speaker 3: whether she had actually done anything at all, or whether 1420 01:05:47,920 --> 01:05:49,880 Speaker 3: the UK had The jury in fact, had kind of 1421 01:05:49,920 --> 01:05:53,680 Speaker 3: got caught up in this mania around the possibility that 1422 01:05:53,800 --> 01:05:56,040 Speaker 3: she may have done it. The court's been told she 1423 01:05:56,160 --> 01:06:00,280 Speaker 3: was caught virtually red handed dislodging the newborn babies breathing 1424 01:06:00,360 --> 01:06:02,320 Speaker 3: tube only two hours after the baby was born. Baby 1425 01:06:02,400 --> 01:06:04,760 Speaker 3: was born very premature or something like fifteen weeks, and 1426 01:06:04,880 --> 01:06:06,880 Speaker 3: the allegation is she's in the room with the baby, 1427 01:06:07,440 --> 01:06:10,360 Speaker 3: she dislodges the breathing tube. In comes a doctor sees 1428 01:06:10,400 --> 01:06:12,560 Speaker 3: the nurses just standing there above the baby doing nothing. 1429 01:06:12,600 --> 01:06:15,400 Speaker 3: The baby's blood oxygen levels of collapse, the alarms should 1430 01:06:15,440 --> 01:06:18,000 Speaker 3: be going off to tell the staff there's a problem, 1431 01:06:18,040 --> 01:06:19,760 Speaker 3: but this time they haven't and they reckon the reason 1432 01:06:19,800 --> 01:06:21,880 Speaker 3: the alarms didn't go off because somebody had turned them off. 1433 01:06:23,040 --> 01:06:25,120 Speaker 3: The court was told the baby then collapsed twice in 1434 01:06:25,160 --> 01:06:28,280 Speaker 3: the following hours, both of the times. This nurse was present. 1435 01:06:28,720 --> 01:06:31,520 Speaker 3: On both occasions. The prosecutor said that the breathing tube 1436 01:06:31,560 --> 01:06:34,320 Speaker 3: had been displaced. Baby can't have done it itself because 1437 01:06:34,320 --> 01:06:37,040 Speaker 3: it was too premature and it was heavily sedated on morphine. 1438 01:06:37,440 --> 01:06:39,520 Speaker 3: Indo Brady, our UK correspondent, will talk us through it 1439 01:06:39,640 --> 01:06:41,600 Speaker 3: later in the show. Next up, let's talk about the 1440 01:06:41,680 --> 01:06:44,520 Speaker 3: voluntary gender pay reporting newstooks had. 1441 01:06:44,440 --> 01:06:51,200 Speaker 2: Been what's down? 1442 01:06:51,840 --> 01:06:54,440 Speaker 1: What were the major calls and how will it affect 1443 01:06:54,480 --> 01:06:57,840 Speaker 1: the economy of the big business questions on the Business 1444 01:06:57,960 --> 01:07:02,960 Speaker 1: Hour with hither duplicy Ellen into my hr on NEWSTALKSV. 1445 01:07:04,480 --> 01:07:06,560 Speaker 3: Even coming up in the next hour, Sam Dickey's going 1446 01:07:06,600 --> 01:07:09,200 Speaker 3: to talk us through Apple's big AI play and whether 1447 01:07:09,320 --> 01:07:12,120 Speaker 3: investors are buying It's Jamie mckaye with the latest from 1448 01:07:12,160 --> 01:07:14,320 Speaker 3: Field Days, and then Liam dan on the possibility that 1449 01:07:14,440 --> 01:07:17,400 Speaker 3: Fitch might actually downgrade us in the ratings. Right now 1450 01:07:17,480 --> 01:07:20,200 Speaker 3: it's seven past six now the governments announced it's planning 1451 01:07:20,240 --> 01:07:23,640 Speaker 3: to bring involuntary reporting of companies gender pay gaps. The 1452 01:07:23,720 --> 01:07:26,120 Speaker 3: gender pay gap is currently eight point six percent in 1453 01:07:26,160 --> 01:07:28,200 Speaker 3: the Ministry for Women will work on a way to 1454 01:07:28,240 --> 01:07:30,920 Speaker 3: help businesses calculate their pay gaps. Louise Upston is the 1455 01:07:30,960 --> 01:07:34,120 Speaker 3: acting Minister for Women and with us Now, hey Louise, Hey, 1456 01:07:34,160 --> 01:07:35,400 Speaker 3: you doing Heather very well? 1457 01:07:35,440 --> 01:07:35,720 Speaker 8: Thank you. 1458 01:07:36,080 --> 01:07:37,600 Speaker 3: So what orders is this going to be? Is it 1459 01:07:37,640 --> 01:07:40,480 Speaker 3: going to be public reporting of the pay gap or 1460 01:07:40,560 --> 01:07:42,120 Speaker 3: is it just going to be reporting it privately to 1461 01:07:42,200 --> 01:07:43,040 Speaker 3: the Ministry for Women. 1462 01:07:44,640 --> 01:07:49,000 Speaker 5: No, So this is basically developing a tool that means 1463 01:07:49,040 --> 01:07:52,080 Speaker 5: business are able to calculate their own gender pay gap. 1464 01:07:52,960 --> 01:07:55,960 Speaker 5: What we know is that the first to understand what 1465 01:07:56,120 --> 01:07:59,400 Speaker 5: the gap is and then each business can develop a 1466 01:07:59,480 --> 01:08:03,439 Speaker 5: plan or how to reduce it. So the first part 1467 01:08:03,800 --> 01:08:06,640 Speaker 5: is making sure that there's a consistent fool that businesses 1468 01:08:06,720 --> 01:08:07,200 Speaker 5: can use. 1469 01:08:08,000 --> 01:08:10,800 Speaker 3: Right and so when when that tool is developed, will 1470 01:08:10,840 --> 01:08:13,240 Speaker 3: it be publicly reported or just reported privately to the 1471 01:08:13,280 --> 01:08:14,000 Speaker 3: government agency. 1472 01:08:15,480 --> 01:08:17,880 Speaker 5: Well, it won't be reported to the government agency. It's 1473 01:08:17,920 --> 01:08:20,240 Speaker 5: for businesses to use themselves. 1474 01:08:20,320 --> 01:08:22,439 Speaker 3: Oh, I see, partly reported themselves if they. 1475 01:08:22,439 --> 01:08:24,320 Speaker 6: Want to, that's right. 1476 01:08:24,520 --> 01:08:28,840 Speaker 5: So we do know for champions to change organizations. They 1477 01:08:28,880 --> 01:08:32,920 Speaker 5: are already participating in a process where they are looking 1478 01:08:33,000 --> 01:08:37,640 Speaker 5: at their gender pay gap. Some businesses are reporting it publicly. 1479 01:08:38,560 --> 01:08:41,320 Speaker 5: What we want the focus to be on is businesses 1480 01:08:41,520 --> 01:08:44,599 Speaker 5: have a tool that is consistent and simple to use 1481 01:08:45,200 --> 01:08:48,160 Speaker 5: where they can measure their own gender pay gap and 1482 01:08:48,280 --> 01:08:51,439 Speaker 5: then they can develop a plan to reduce the gap 1483 01:08:51,720 --> 01:08:55,200 Speaker 5: in their workforce. We think this is a really important 1484 01:08:55,320 --> 01:08:58,880 Speaker 5: first step. So businesses can take those steps and we 1485 01:08:58,960 --> 01:09:00,719 Speaker 5: can see the gender pay gap reduce. 1486 01:09:01,240 --> 01:09:02,639 Speaker 3: Do these tools already exist? 1487 01:09:04,320 --> 01:09:07,040 Speaker 5: Some of them do what we do know we've learned 1488 01:09:07,160 --> 01:09:11,880 Speaker 5: from the example in Australia it can be incredibly complicated, 1489 01:09:12,960 --> 01:09:14,880 Speaker 5: and what we do want to do is make sure 1490 01:09:14,920 --> 01:09:18,519 Speaker 5: it's as easy as possible for businesses to measure under 1491 01:09:18,600 --> 01:09:19,280 Speaker 5: pay gap. 1492 01:09:19,200 --> 01:09:20,000 Speaker 6: Which is wise. 1493 01:09:20,200 --> 01:09:22,040 Speaker 3: I mean, we're not the first people in the world 1494 01:09:22,080 --> 01:09:23,760 Speaker 3: to be doing this, right, this is done all over 1495 01:09:23,800 --> 01:09:25,880 Speaker 3: the world. It's already being done by some businesses in 1496 01:09:25,880 --> 01:09:27,479 Speaker 3: New Zealand. So why don't we just use the tool 1497 01:09:27,479 --> 01:09:28,120 Speaker 3: they've already got. 1498 01:09:29,760 --> 01:09:32,320 Speaker 5: Well, there's some level of concern around the tool that's 1499 01:09:32,360 --> 01:09:34,559 Speaker 5: being use, so we want to make sure we've got 1500 01:09:34,600 --> 01:09:38,360 Speaker 5: a simple one that is effective. What we don't want 1501 01:09:38,400 --> 01:09:42,200 Speaker 5: to do is have a very expensive regulatory system like 1502 01:09:42,320 --> 01:09:45,719 Speaker 5: they have in Australia. The costs about ten billion dollars. 1503 01:09:45,920 --> 01:09:49,560 Speaker 5: They have a separate regulator and every business over a 1504 01:09:49,640 --> 01:09:54,280 Speaker 5: particular size has to report. We want a practical tool 1505 01:09:54,360 --> 01:09:58,880 Speaker 5: that we're developing with business that other businesses will then 1506 01:09:58,920 --> 01:09:59,680 Speaker 5: pick up a use. 1507 01:10:00,120 --> 01:10:03,200 Speaker 3: So it's not as simple as saying you've got one 1508 01:10:03,280 --> 01:10:06,439 Speaker 3: hundred and twenty women and on average they get paid X, 1509 01:10:06,520 --> 01:10:08,280 Speaker 3: and you've got one hundred and twenty men in the 1510 01:10:09,280 --> 01:10:11,880 Speaker 3: business on an average they get paid a bigger X. 1511 01:10:12,160 --> 01:10:13,720 Speaker 3: It doesn't work like that. You don't just add them 1512 01:10:13,720 --> 01:10:14,960 Speaker 3: together and divide it by the number. 1513 01:10:15,920 --> 01:10:19,360 Speaker 5: No, because if you think about part time employment and 1514 01:10:19,520 --> 01:10:23,800 Speaker 5: you think about bonuses, you think about are we calculating mean, 1515 01:10:23,960 --> 01:10:28,000 Speaker 5: average or median? So it is about but what we 1516 01:10:28,120 --> 01:10:30,800 Speaker 5: do want to make sure we're doing is being able 1517 01:10:30,880 --> 01:10:35,960 Speaker 5: to calculate it consistently and have a tool that businesses 1518 01:10:36,040 --> 01:10:40,000 Speaker 5: can be confident about. And also you are if you 1519 01:10:40,160 --> 01:10:43,120 Speaker 5: are a potential employee looking at going to work for 1520 01:10:43,160 --> 01:10:46,280 Speaker 5: an organization and they publish their gender pay gap, you 1521 01:10:46,360 --> 01:10:49,200 Speaker 5: want to have confidence that that information is accurate. 1522 01:10:49,439 --> 01:10:51,160 Speaker 3: Louise, I'll tell you what my problem with the gender 1523 01:10:51,160 --> 01:10:52,720 Speaker 3: pay gap is you could tell me how we fix 1524 01:10:52,760 --> 01:10:54,920 Speaker 3: the situation. Okay, let's look at the business that I 1525 01:10:55,080 --> 01:10:58,000 Speaker 3: work for. The two highest earners in this business I 1526 01:10:58,080 --> 01:11:00,920 Speaker 3: would take a punt, would be the CEO and Mike 1527 01:11:01,000 --> 01:11:05,040 Speaker 3: Hosking bloke. Now, that would skew things like that's going 1528 01:11:05,120 --> 01:11:08,400 Speaker 3: to skew things massively in the male favor. But it's not. 1529 01:11:09,080 --> 01:11:12,160 Speaker 3: That doesn't that's not unfair because Mike Hosking is in 1530 01:11:12,240 --> 01:11:14,400 Speaker 3: that position regardless of whether he's a bloke, because he 1531 01:11:14,560 --> 01:11:16,920 Speaker 3: is just the best at that job, and the CEO 1532 01:11:17,200 --> 01:11:18,800 Speaker 3: just happens to be a bloke, could be a lady, 1533 01:11:18,840 --> 01:11:20,680 Speaker 3: but this time it's a bloke. So how do you 1534 01:11:20,760 --> 01:11:23,960 Speaker 3: get around that where you've got some very prominent high 1535 01:11:24,000 --> 01:11:26,080 Speaker 3: owners who will skew things and make it look like 1536 01:11:26,120 --> 01:11:27,880 Speaker 3: there's a gender cave pay gap when perhaps if you 1537 01:11:27,960 --> 01:11:30,040 Speaker 3: come down a level, there's no gender pay gap. 1538 01:11:31,200 --> 01:11:31,400 Speaker 4: Yeah. 1539 01:11:31,439 --> 01:11:34,160 Speaker 5: So what some sectors are doing that is much further 1540 01:11:34,280 --> 01:11:37,800 Speaker 5: down this track than others is they are able to 1541 01:11:38,640 --> 01:11:41,760 Speaker 5: look at their data and assess what's the gender pay 1542 01:11:41,840 --> 01:11:45,200 Speaker 5: gap in the senior leadership team, what's the gender pay 1543 01:11:45,280 --> 01:11:48,519 Speaker 5: gap at the operational level of the business, what is 1544 01:11:48,600 --> 01:11:53,000 Speaker 5: the gender pay gap in Auckland. So they are able 1545 01:11:53,120 --> 01:11:56,280 Speaker 5: to analyze their data in a range of different ways 1546 01:11:57,000 --> 01:12:01,240 Speaker 5: that can lead to meaningful action that they then take 1547 01:12:01,479 --> 01:12:05,439 Speaker 5: to reduce the gender pay gap. Soaking in consideration, Yeah, 1548 01:12:05,560 --> 01:12:08,400 Speaker 5: some of those things, absolutely, and it's got to be 1549 01:12:08,520 --> 01:12:12,320 Speaker 5: meaningful and it's got to lead to options a business 1550 01:12:12,400 --> 01:12:15,880 Speaker 5: can take to lead to change that reduces the gender 1551 01:12:15,920 --> 01:12:18,240 Speaker 5: pay gap, because that's the end goal here. We want 1552 01:12:18,320 --> 01:12:19,639 Speaker 5: to reduce the gender pay gap. 1553 01:12:20,000 --> 01:12:22,320 Speaker 3: Luis, thank you so much. Appreciated that this is Louise 1554 01:12:22,400 --> 01:12:24,559 Speaker 3: upstin acting Minister for Women. I'll tell you what, it's 1555 01:12:24,560 --> 01:12:25,840 Speaker 3: a good thing that they're not going through with it 1556 01:12:25,920 --> 01:12:28,519 Speaker 3: making it compulsory, right, because that is just red tape 1557 01:12:28,560 --> 01:12:30,720 Speaker 3: all over the shop when David Ceen was doing such 1558 01:12:30,720 --> 01:12:32,640 Speaker 3: an admirable job at the moment of cutting the old 1559 01:12:32,720 --> 01:12:35,200 Speaker 3: red tape speaking of cussing. Looks like we might be 1560 01:12:35,280 --> 01:12:40,080 Speaker 3: in trouble with our rating from Fitch. If you listen 1561 01:12:40,120 --> 01:12:43,120 Speaker 3: to the guy who is the Sovereign's director for Asia 1562 01:12:43,160 --> 01:12:45,679 Speaker 3: Pacific who's given an interview to Business Deest today, we're 1563 01:12:45,720 --> 01:12:48,200 Speaker 3: in line for a downgrade if we don't get a 1564 01:12:48,280 --> 01:12:50,639 Speaker 3: downgrade this year. It sounds like it's a line call. 1565 01:12:50,920 --> 01:12:52,599 Speaker 3: They're worried about They've had a look at the budget 1566 01:12:52,640 --> 01:12:54,320 Speaker 3: and they do not like what they see. They're worried 1567 01:12:54,320 --> 01:12:56,599 Speaker 3: about the debt, they're worried about the deficits. They're worried 1568 01:12:56,640 --> 01:12:59,439 Speaker 3: about about China not growing particularly well. Liam Dan's going 1569 01:12:59,479 --> 01:13:02,120 Speaker 3: to talk us through that shortly. Also Ender Brady, when 1570 01:13:02,120 --> 01:13:04,840 Speaker 3: he's with us, I want to talk to him. I 1571 01:13:04,960 --> 01:13:07,000 Speaker 3: want to talk to him about the UK election, because 1572 01:13:07,040 --> 01:13:10,160 Speaker 3: every single day that this campaign goes on, I am 1573 01:13:10,320 --> 01:13:13,240 Speaker 3: just increasingly convinced that whoever they end up with is 1574 01:13:13,240 --> 01:13:15,920 Speaker 3: going to be Kiir Starmer. It's just a crappy choice. 1575 01:13:16,080 --> 01:13:19,240 Speaker 3: The pack of it's a pack of losers running for 1576 01:13:19,280 --> 01:13:21,680 Speaker 3: the prime minister over there. So what they're doing at 1577 01:13:21,720 --> 01:13:25,160 Speaker 3: the moment between Sir Kiir Starmer and Rishi I'm a 1578 01:13:25,240 --> 01:13:29,160 Speaker 3: billionaire sunak As, they're having a little competition to see 1579 01:13:29,320 --> 01:13:32,439 Speaker 3: who's more normal, Like, who's more normal and exactly like 1580 01:13:32,520 --> 01:13:35,360 Speaker 3: the working man. And so Rishi was trying very desperately 1581 01:13:35,400 --> 01:13:37,599 Speaker 3: to sound like he actually just had a normal upbringing. 1582 01:13:37,840 --> 01:13:39,360 Speaker 3: And so he said, oh, you know I had to 1583 01:13:39,400 --> 01:13:41,600 Speaker 3: go without when I was young, Yeah, I had to 1584 01:13:41,640 --> 01:13:43,479 Speaker 3: have some sacrifices. So I could go to my private 1585 01:13:43,520 --> 01:13:45,439 Speaker 3: boarding school. Had to have sacrifices. They're like, oh, yeah, 1586 01:13:45,439 --> 01:13:47,280 Speaker 3: what did you go without? He's like, oh yeah, no sacrifice. 1587 01:13:47,439 --> 01:13:52,679 Speaker 3: Yeah what did you go without? Sky TV? Well, okay, 1588 01:13:53,040 --> 01:13:55,200 Speaker 3: that's going without. But it's not like you had to 1589 01:13:55,280 --> 01:13:59,560 Speaker 3: go without shoes or the heata, you know, like you 1590 01:13:59,640 --> 01:14:01,599 Speaker 3: can live that sky TV. Mate, you should be outside 1591 01:14:01,640 --> 01:14:06,040 Speaker 3: running anyway. You're a kid.

We do not need a tool for 1623 01:15:42,439 --> 01:15:44,640 Speaker 3: the gender pay gap. There is something called excel. We 1624 01:15:44,680 --> 01:15:47,200 Speaker 3: have ninety seven staff and our HR does this simply 1625 01:15:47,320 --> 01:15:51,680 Speaker 3: on EXCEL. I mean, let's be honest about it, right. 1626 01:15:52,000 --> 01:15:55,519 Speaker 3: What this is is procrastinating, isn't it. It's I mean, 1627 01:15:56,040 --> 01:15:58,960 Speaker 3: what National is doing is they're going, hey, look, we're 1628 01:15:59,000 --> 01:16:01,040 Speaker 3: doing something about the gen the pay gap while doing 1629 01:16:01,080 --> 01:16:04,200 Speaker 3: absolutely nothing by buying time, which isn't great because what 1630 01:16:04,240 --> 01:16:06,080 Speaker 3: they're doing is they're wasting the time of the people 1631 01:16:06,120 --> 01:16:07,840 Speaker 3: at the Ministry of Women. And if the people at 1632 01:16:07,840 --> 01:16:10,960 Speaker 3: the Ministry of Women have the time to dawdle like this, 1633 01:16:11,160 --> 01:16:12,800 Speaker 3: fire the lot of them, Fire a lot of them, 1634 01:16:12,840 --> 01:16:15,280 Speaker 3: and stop the virtue signaling. That's what's going on. Nineteen 1635 01:16:15,320 --> 01:16:18,280 Speaker 3: past six, the Fitch Ratings Agency is mulling over the 1636 01:16:18,320 --> 01:16:20,879 Speaker 3: state of New Zealand's economy, like I told you, potentially 1637 01:16:20,920 --> 01:16:23,479 Speaker 3: thinking about a ratings downgrade. Liam dan is The Herald's 1638 01:16:23,520 --> 01:16:26,200 Speaker 3: Business editor at large and with us Now, hey, Liam, hey, 1639 01:16:27,160 --> 01:16:30,600 Speaker 3: what do you reckon odds on for a downgrade or 1640 01:16:30,680 --> 01:16:32,280 Speaker 3: not odds. 1641 01:16:32,080 --> 01:16:35,559 Speaker 6: Or probably it's a great yarn from Deleeper Fonseca at 1642 01:16:35,760 --> 01:16:38,000 Speaker 6: a business desk and he's talked to the guy at 1643 01:16:38,040 --> 01:16:41,240 Speaker 6: Fitch and yes, they are, they are a bit concerned 1644 01:16:41,240 --> 01:16:44,160 Speaker 6: when they do their analysis because you know, everything's got 1645 01:16:44,160 --> 01:16:47,160 Speaker 6: a bit worse and they're worried that the debt's going 1646 01:16:47,240 --> 01:16:48,759 Speaker 6: to be higher and we're going to be in depers 1647 01:16:48,960 --> 01:16:51,439 Speaker 6: for longer. So you know, it does put a bit 1648 01:16:51,520 --> 01:16:53,840 Speaker 6: of pressure on the argument for those tax caps given 1649 01:16:54,080 --> 01:16:58,680 Speaker 6: the conditions we're in. Sort of but looking through it, 1650 01:16:58,800 --> 01:17:00,880 Speaker 6: he's kind of saying, well, you know, they don't give 1651 01:17:00,880 --> 01:17:04,840 Speaker 6: anything away about the stuff, but that it puts us 1652 01:17:04,880 --> 01:17:07,920 Speaker 6: on the wrong side of the of the median for 1653 01:17:09,080 --> 01:17:12,760 Speaker 6: double A rating, so that that's not necessarily you know, 1654 01:17:13,439 --> 01:17:16,519 Speaker 6: being bad enough to be downgraded. You know, we're doing 1655 01:17:16,560 --> 01:17:19,600 Speaker 6: a lot of reading between the lines. That is a 1656 01:17:19,640 --> 01:17:21,960 Speaker 6: bit of a warning and it's you know, look at 1657 01:17:22,040 --> 01:17:24,280 Speaker 6: those ratings are one of the few things that have 1658 01:17:24,960 --> 01:17:27,240 Speaker 6: got people had people like me going, well, the things 1659 01:17:27,240 --> 01:17:29,920 Speaker 6: aren't so bad. You know, we've still got our double 1660 01:17:29,960 --> 01:17:33,320 Speaker 6: A plus rating actually, so we're the second best rating 1661 01:17:33,360 --> 01:17:36,920 Speaker 6: you can get for credit around the world. We're not 1662 01:17:37,000 --> 01:17:39,240 Speaker 6: quite triple A like Australia, but we're you know, we're 1663 01:17:39,560 --> 01:17:42,879 Speaker 6: sitting next to some other nations like the US and Taiwan, 1664 01:17:43,040 --> 01:17:45,960 Speaker 6: and it's not a bad place to be and of 1665 01:17:46,000 --> 01:17:49,000 Speaker 6: course if the rating gets worse, then we have to 1666 01:17:49,080 --> 01:17:53,479 Speaker 6: pay more for our foreign borrowing and that would potentially 1667 01:17:53,600 --> 01:17:54,720 Speaker 6: put our interest rates up. 1668 01:17:54,800 --> 01:17:55,800 Speaker 16: So, say, what. 1669 01:17:55,880 --> 01:17:57,920 Speaker 3: Worried me in this lamb was the fact that they 1670 01:17:58,040 --> 01:17:59,960 Speaker 3: think the good times are behind us, Like the last 1671 01:18:00,240 --> 01:18:03,439 Speaker 3: ten years were great, the next ten years not so 1672 01:18:03,640 --> 01:18:05,880 Speaker 3: great unless we can find a way to make heaps 1673 01:18:05,920 --> 01:18:07,880 Speaker 3: more money out of other places, not just China. 1674 01:18:08,040 --> 01:18:11,040 Speaker 6: Right, Yeah, that was that was That was a worrying 1675 01:18:11,080 --> 01:18:12,560 Speaker 6: But I mean, you can sort of talk about the 1676 01:18:12,680 --> 01:18:14,599 Speaker 6: cycle we're in and the you know, when we get 1677 01:18:14,640 --> 01:18:16,600 Speaker 6: out of deficit nightps of stuff. But there was some 1678 01:18:16,760 --> 01:18:21,360 Speaker 6: serious discussion there about the fact that the drivers of 1679 01:18:21,479 --> 01:18:25,080 Speaker 6: the good times I guess China and tourism boom and 1680 01:18:25,160 --> 01:18:28,320 Speaker 6: dairy boom are sort of petering out, you know, and 1681 01:18:28,640 --> 01:18:31,439 Speaker 6: that we need to find something else to charge our economy. 1682 01:18:32,680 --> 01:18:36,639 Speaker 6: And you know, look, Chrystal Luxen and co. Have talked 1683 01:18:36,640 --> 01:18:38,720 Speaker 6: about this, and they know that they've got to get 1684 01:18:38,760 --> 01:18:42,439 Speaker 6: something going with a bit more foreign direct investment and 1685 01:18:42,920 --> 01:18:45,560 Speaker 6: technology and all those good things. But it's you know, 1686 01:18:45,640 --> 01:18:47,439 Speaker 6: one thing to talk about. It's nothing to get it going. 1687 01:18:47,560 --> 01:18:53,000 Speaker 6: I suppose China, we might you know, might rebalance our 1688 01:18:53,040 --> 01:18:55,599 Speaker 6: relationship there and get something out of us latest. 1689 01:18:55,960 --> 01:18:59,000 Speaker 3: But yeah, who knows, fingers crossed. I'll take anything, Liam, 1690 01:18:59,040 --> 01:19:02,320 Speaker 3: Thank you, Liam Dan, the Herald's Business editor at large.

Actually we're through two of four days, although 1716 01:20:06,120 --> 01:20:08,360 Speaker 25: Saturday is sort of more of a towny's day than 1717 01:20:08,400 --> 01:20:11,640 Speaker 25: a farmer's day. And the weather's been fantastic. It's a 1718 01:20:11,800 --> 01:20:15,080 Speaker 25: very dry underfoot, but I think that might all change 1719 01:20:15,439 --> 01:20:18,920 Speaker 25: tomorrow morning.

I mean, are people feeling okay? 1726 01:20:34,920 --> 01:20:35,080 Speaker 24: Yeah? 1727 01:20:35,160 --> 01:20:38,920 Speaker 25: Yeah, Look, I mean we're broadcasting from the brand site 1728 01:20:39,760 --> 01:20:43,719 Speaker 25: and they sell John there tractors obviously big ticket items. 1729 01:20:44,400 --> 01:20:48,280 Speaker 25: They also took away the Supreme Award for the Largest 1730 01:20:48,680 --> 01:20:51,040 Speaker 25: or for the large site. So they've done really well. 1731 01:20:51,280 --> 01:20:53,720 Speaker 25: I mean your loader sit up heather with lots of 1732 01:20:53,760 --> 01:20:56,080 Speaker 25: green tractors and yellow diggers and farmers are going to 1733 01:20:56,120 --> 01:20:58,000 Speaker 25: go along and have a play and a bit of 1734 01:20:58,040 --> 01:21:01,880 Speaker 25: a kick. But I mean that the catering that they're doing, 1735 01:21:02,520 --> 01:21:06,040 Speaker 25: it's magnificent. But I think to be fair, large ticket 1736 01:21:06,120 --> 01:21:08,639 Speaker 25: items are a bit of a tough one for farmers 1737 01:21:08,680 --> 01:21:11,000 Speaker 25: at the moment. There's just not much money around. Not 1738 01:21:11,120 --> 01:21:13,800 Speaker 25: many farmers are making money, but I see lots of 1739 01:21:13,880 --> 01:21:17,360 Speaker 25: people buying Swan drys and red bands and all that 1740 01:21:17,520 --> 01:21:19,800 Speaker 25: sort of stuff. The food places seem to be going 1741 01:21:20,280 --> 01:21:22,880 Speaker 25: really well. I don't know the crowd numbers for field 1742 01:21:22,920 --> 01:21:25,640 Speaker 25: days have decided in recent years not to put out 1743 01:21:25,720 --> 01:21:27,720 Speaker 25: the daily numbers. They used to give them out, but 1744 01:21:27,800 --> 01:21:30,360 Speaker 25: they don't anymore. But certainly I think they would be 1745 01:21:30,640 --> 01:21:33,519 Speaker 25: judging by the traffic anyhow to get in there, they 1746 01:21:33,560 --> 01:21:35,639 Speaker 25: would be pretty pleased with the turnout for the first 1747 01:21:35,680 --> 01:21:36,280 Speaker 25: couple of days. 1748 01:21:36,400 --> 01:21:38,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, good stuff.

So this is part of I mean, 1755 01:21:51,760 --> 01:21:54,120 Speaker 25: this is the biggest Amp show, or it was the 1756 01:21:54,160 --> 01:21:57,760 Speaker 25: biggest Amp show in the country by quite a way. 1757 01:21:57,840 --> 01:22:00,519 Speaker 25: And of course they've run out of money they had 1758 01:22:00,560 --> 01:22:06,120 Speaker 25: to cancel. Now they're looking at running it Thursday through Saturday, 1759 01:22:06,160 --> 01:22:10,439 Speaker 25: remembering Friday's a public holiday in christ Church instead of 1760 01:22:10,520 --> 01:22:14,120 Speaker 25: the traditional Wednesday through Friday. There's going to be less things, 1761 01:22:14,160 --> 01:22:16,200 Speaker 25: but they're going to keep a lot of those Amp 1762 01:22:16,520 --> 01:22:19,400 Speaker 25: show type things going. I'm so pleased I've kept it 1763 01:22:19,840 --> 01:22:22,320 Speaker 25: going because if you shut these things down, they get 1764 01:22:22,520 --> 01:22:25,120 Speaker 25: very hard to start up again.

Hither, 1771 01:22:42,160 --> 01:22:44,320 Speaker 3: I also live in Devenport.

Hither, they've just 1782 01:23:25,640 --> 01:23:28,519 Speaker 3: changed what about you.

Cool, 1785 01:23:36,479 --> 01:23:38,160 Speaker 3: we'll get so cross with you if I was driving 1786 01:23:38,200 --> 01:23:38,560 Speaker 3: behind you. 1787 01:23:38,920 --> 01:23:42,040 Speaker 8: Hither, milicious compliance. We call that one, don't we? Is 1788 01:23:42,080 --> 01:23:43,320 Speaker 8: that what it's called? Yeah? Where you do what you're 1789 01:23:43,320 --> 01:23:45,080 Speaker 8: supposed to do in such a way that everyone gets 1790 01:23:45,120 --> 01:23:48,680 Speaker 8: annoyed at you and they can't because you're just doing that. 1791 01:23:48,800 --> 01:23:50,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, you're just yeah, And you know who I hope 1792 01:23:50,439 --> 01:23:53,600 Speaker 3: gets stuck behind you, Richard Hell's the Auckland councilor so 1793 01:23:53,680 --> 01:23:56,400 Speaker 3: we can see how that feels. Hither, I drive everywhere 1794 01:23:56,439 --> 01:23:58,960 Speaker 3: with cruise control, as I have the GPS monitoring by 1795 01:23:59,000 --> 01:24:02,080 Speaker 3: my employer. Thirty sucks because you can't actually set the 1796 01:24:02,160 --> 01:24:04,519 Speaker 3: cruise control to anything less than forty k's per hour. 1797 01:24:04,600 --> 01:24:06,719 Speaker 3: There's no way thirty is any safer than forty because 1798 01:24:06,720 --> 01:24:08,120 Speaker 3: you just get bored and you look for other things 1799 01:24:08,160 --> 01:24:10,560 Speaker 3: to do while you're crawling along, which is true. You 1800 01:24:10,680 --> 01:24:13,080 Speaker 3: are more likely, I reckon, to think it's absolutely okay 1801 01:24:13,120 --> 01:24:15,160 Speaker 3: to tap away on your phone at thirty than you 1802 01:24:15,280 --> 01:24:16,760 Speaker 3: are to think it's okay to tap away at your 1803 01:24:16,800 --> 01:24:20,720 Speaker 3: phone on your phone at forty. But whatever. Anyway, thank god, 1804 01:24:20,760 --> 01:24:23,759 Speaker 3: Simon Brown's coming to change the subbay. The Pope. Now, listen, 1805 01:24:23,960 --> 01:24:25,719 Speaker 3: Pope's been in a little bit of trouble lately because 1806 01:24:25,720 --> 01:24:27,320 Speaker 3: he keeps on repeating the F word. I don't know 1807 01:24:27,360 --> 01:24:28,880 Speaker 3: if you've been aware of it. He said the F 1808 01:24:28,960 --> 01:24:30,880 Speaker 3: word then in a closed meeting, then he was like, sorry, 1809 01:24:31,040 --> 01:24:33,519 Speaker 3: I won't do that again. Then he did it again. Anyway, 1810 01:24:33,640 --> 01:24:36,040 Speaker 3: now he's redeemed himself because he's come out on the 1811 01:24:36,080 --> 01:24:38,000 Speaker 3: side of the people who go to the Catholic Church, 1812 01:24:38,000 --> 01:24:39,519 Speaker 3: and I am with him on this. He's told the 1813 01:24:39,560 --> 01:24:42,360 Speaker 3: priests they need to keep their homilies short and speak 1814 01:24:42,439 --> 01:24:45,160 Speaker 3: for a maximum of eight minutes so that people don't 1815 01:24:45,160 --> 01:24:48,080 Speaker 3: fall asleep. Now, the homily is when they read from 1816 01:24:48,120 --> 01:24:50,720 Speaker 3: the Bible in the mass, and then afterwards they do 1817 01:24:50,800 --> 01:24:52,800 Speaker 3: the homily, which is designed to kind of reinforce what 1818 01:24:53,000 --> 01:24:54,519 Speaker 3: was in the reading from the Bible rights, like a 1819 01:24:54,560 --> 01:24:57,160 Speaker 3: little teaching and stuff like that. But Francis says eight 1820 01:24:57,240 --> 01:25:00,200 Speaker 3: minutes is the absolute maximum that here they're allowed to do. 1821 01:25:00,400 --> 01:25:03,439 Speaker 3: And he says quote because after that time, attention is 1822 01:25:03,520 --> 01:25:07,240 Speaker 3: lost and people fall asleep, and they are right. He says, 1823 01:25:07,760 --> 01:25:10,280 Speaker 3: priests sometimes talk a lot and you don't understand what 1824 01:25:10,400 --> 01:25:13,120 Speaker 3: they are talking about. Bang on twenty two away from 1825 01:25:13,120 --> 01:25:16,280 Speaker 3: seven together do for c Alan. Now, Apple have been 1826 01:25:16,320 --> 01:25:19,040 Speaker 3: considered something of an AI laggard because they hadn't announced 1827 01:25:19,080 --> 01:25:21,200 Speaker 3: any AI plans, but that's now of course changed because 1828 01:25:21,200 --> 01:25:23,600 Speaker 3: it looks like we're gonna get AI soon coming to 1829 01:25:23,800 --> 01:25:26,800 Speaker 3: us via our iPhones. Sam Dickey from Fisher Funds is 1830 01:25:26,840 --> 01:25:30,280 Speaker 3: with us to talk us through that evening, Sam righty, 1831 01:25:30,360 --> 01:25:33,760 Speaker 3: This arms races AI arms race is fascinating. Where are 1832 01:25:33,840 --> 01:25:35,720 Speaker 3: we at in this race to drive the revenue and 1833 01:25:35,720 --> 01:25:36,559 Speaker 3: the profits from AI. 1834 01:25:37,720 --> 01:25:40,200 Speaker 12: Yes, there's been a lot of noise, but all these 1835 01:25:40,280 --> 01:25:43,640 Speaker 12: companies like Meta, Microsoft, Amazon that has spending tens and 1836 01:25:43,720 --> 01:25:46,880 Speaker 12: in fact, hundreds of billions of dollars are desperate to 1837 01:25:47,000 --> 01:25:49,920 Speaker 12: find the kind of killer app that the thing that 1838 01:25:50,000 --> 01:25:51,639 Speaker 12: you and I here that will pay for to give 1839 01:25:51,680 --> 01:25:54,400 Speaker 12: them a return on their investment. And the first wave, 1840 01:25:54,720 --> 01:25:57,200 Speaker 12: as we know, was the natural language model is the 1841 01:25:57,320 --> 01:26:01,320 Speaker 12: single source of truth like m and ich GPT perplexity 1842 01:26:01,400 --> 01:26:04,519 Speaker 12: called METAAI. The list goes on. Now it's still early 1843 01:26:04,640 --> 01:26:06,800 Speaker 12: days on that, but it looks like no one has 1844 01:26:06,880 --> 01:26:09,320 Speaker 12: really prepared to pay for that single source of truth. 1845 01:26:10,120 --> 01:26:13,160 Speaker 12: And then the next potentially big opportunity is or Thomas 1846 01:26:13,280 --> 01:26:16,800 Speaker 12: vehicles or full self driving vehicles for everyone, but that's 1847 01:26:17,520 --> 01:26:20,320 Speaker 12: still we way away. And of course, a genuine and 1848 01:26:20,439 --> 01:26:24,599 Speaker 12: I mean genuine personal assistant, it's actually useful, unlike Alexa 1849 01:26:24,680 --> 01:26:25,479 Speaker 12: or hey Google, for. 1850 01:26:25,520 --> 01:26:29,479 Speaker 3: Example, why's Apple being considered a lag out here? 1851 01:26:31,000 --> 01:26:35,800 Speaker 12: Well, modern AIS kind of in play since November twenty 1852 01:26:35,840 --> 01:26:38,320 Speaker 12: twenty two, and almost every company on Earth since since 1853 01:26:38,360 --> 01:26:41,400 Speaker 12: then announced their AI strategy and I sort of say 1854 01:26:41,479 --> 01:26:45,080 Speaker 12: that playing cheek, and it's almost been a laughable competition. 1855 01:26:45,200 --> 01:26:48,720 Speaker 12: How many times can you mention AI on one earnings call? 1856 01:26:48,840 --> 01:26:52,439 Speaker 12: For example? And Apple has been stummed. It hasn't said 1857 01:26:52,439 --> 01:26:55,559 Speaker 12: a word. So the market's been calling it an AI laggard, 1858 01:26:55,600 --> 01:26:58,080 Speaker 12: and it does remind me Heeter. You and I talked 1859 01:26:58,080 --> 01:27:00,599 Speaker 12: a few months ago about Google and people were saying 1860 01:27:00,680 --> 01:27:03,560 Speaker 12: that company was an AI loser as well, which was 1861 01:27:04,120 --> 01:27:06,320 Speaker 12: kind of a third given AI as one of the Sorry, 1862 01:27:06,360 --> 01:27:09,559 Speaker 12: Google's one of the godfathers of AI. So this all 1863 01:27:09,600 --> 01:27:12,200 Speaker 12: seemed to change Rapple this week at their their Worldwide 1864 01:27:12,240 --> 01:27:13,480 Speaker 12: Developers Conference. 1865 01:27:14,080 --> 01:27:16,559 Speaker 3: Yeah, what is this Worldwide Developers Conference? 1866 01:27:17,920 --> 01:27:20,400 Speaker 12: So that's the annual flagship event. So all the big 1867 01:27:20,479 --> 01:27:23,679 Speaker 12: tech companies and most big corporates globally have a big, 1868 01:27:23,800 --> 01:27:26,880 Speaker 12: sort of killer annual flagship event, and this is the 1869 01:27:26,960 --> 01:27:30,280 Speaker 12: one where they unveil their newest products. I'm sure you 1870 01:27:30,360 --> 01:27:33,000 Speaker 12: can probably all remember Steve Jobs walking around on stage 1871 01:27:33,080 --> 01:27:35,760 Speaker 12: with the original iPhone back in two thousand and seven 1872 01:27:35,840 --> 01:27:39,400 Speaker 12: or whatever it was. But they announced at this WWDC 1873 01:27:39,520 --> 01:27:43,400 Speaker 12: as it's called Apple Intelligence, which is basically an upgraded 1874 01:27:43,479 --> 01:27:44,759 Speaker 12: Sury among other things. 1875 01:27:45,800 --> 01:27:48,280 Speaker 3: Okay, what does this mean for us as consumers? Now, 1876 01:27:48,320 --> 01:27:50,920 Speaker 3: if we're going to get the stuff loaded on our iPhone. 1877 01:27:51,880 --> 01:27:56,400 Speaker 12: So among other things, that really means a super supercharged 1878 01:27:56,439 --> 01:27:58,720 Speaker 12: sery there will actually be able to understand what you're 1879 01:27:58,760 --> 01:28:01,200 Speaker 12: saying understand natural land much better. It will be able 1880 01:28:01,240 --> 01:28:03,320 Speaker 12: to dig through your apps on your phone, assuming they 1881 01:28:03,400 --> 01:28:07,400 Speaker 12: get permission and execute instructions. So imagine a genuine personal 1882 01:28:07,560 --> 01:28:10,240 Speaker 12: system that could send emails, book meetings, book taxi, surf 1883 01:28:10,280 --> 01:28:11,920 Speaker 12: you're in New Zealand, app to see what time your 1884 01:28:11,960 --> 01:28:15,160 Speaker 12: flight has change that flight, pull up photos from years ago, 1885 01:28:15,680 --> 01:28:18,439 Speaker 12: all activated by your voice. And one of the examples 1886 01:28:18,520 --> 01:28:20,439 Speaker 12: they gave, which I think is not a bad example 1887 01:28:20,560 --> 01:28:22,640 Speaker 12: is not killer. Is say you've taken a photo of 1888 01:28:22,640 --> 01:28:25,160 Speaker 12: your driver's license and is very deep in the bowels 1889 01:28:25,200 --> 01:28:29,880 Speaker 12: of your photos somewhere you can just say Siri, given 1890 01:28:30,080 --> 01:28:32,879 Speaker 12: my driver's license number, it will surf your photos. 1891 01:28:33,360 --> 01:28:35,240 Speaker 3: Sam, How good is this? I mean the other day 1892 01:28:35,280 --> 01:28:37,200 Speaker 3: I tried to find my driver's license number and I 1893 01:28:37,280 --> 01:28:39,439 Speaker 3: had to eventually go and blinking will find my wallet 1894 01:28:39,560 --> 01:28:41,640 Speaker 3: in another room, which annoyed me so much. This is 1895 01:28:41,680 --> 01:28:43,600 Speaker 3: going to be a game changer, then, potentially, isn't it. 1896 01:28:45,080 --> 01:28:49,160 Speaker 12: Well, that is the killer question that investors are grapping with, 1897 01:28:49,280 --> 01:28:52,040 Speaker 12: and maybe I think you've just answered it for me, Heather, 1898 01:28:52,160 --> 01:28:56,560 Speaker 12: is will you upgrade your iPhone if the Siri is 1899 01:28:56,800 --> 01:28:59,920 Speaker 12: really a killer personal assistant? I think you just said yes. 1900 01:29:00,680 --> 01:29:02,120 Speaker 3: Well, yeah, I mean, how much is it going to cost? 1901 01:29:02,160 --> 01:29:03,040 Speaker 3: Because I'm very tight? 1902 01:29:04,160 --> 01:29:08,080 Speaker 12: Well exactly so that this is from an investor's perspective. 1903 01:29:08,280 --> 01:29:11,800 Speaker 12: Apple Intelligence is only available on iPhones fifteen and above, 1904 01:29:12,479 --> 01:29:14,640 Speaker 12: so you know this. People are going to see how 1905 01:29:14,680 --> 01:29:17,839 Speaker 12: this plays out. But if this is a real genuine 1906 01:29:17,920 --> 01:29:21,599 Speaker 12: personal assistant that will save you hours per week, potentially 1907 01:29:21,640 --> 01:29:24,760 Speaker 12: people will upgrade their iPhone and will drive an upgrade cycle. 1908 01:29:24,800 --> 01:29:26,680 Speaker 12: But one thing is the short The market thinks this 1909 01:29:26,800 --> 01:29:29,960 Speaker 12: will drive a huge iPhone upgrade cycle because the stock 1910 01:29:30,080 --> 01:29:32,840 Speaker 12: has added three to four hundred billion US dollars in 1911 01:29:32,920 --> 01:29:36,439 Speaker 12: market cap and two days alone since the Worldwide Developers Conference. 1912 01:29:36,520 --> 01:29:38,240 Speaker 3: Brilliant, So the investors are into it, are they? 1913 01:29:39,479 --> 01:29:41,080 Speaker 12: They are into it, that's right. 1914 01:29:41,320 --> 01:29:43,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, Hey, thank you Sam. That's fascinating stuff. Really appreciate it. 1915 01:29:43,840 --> 01:29:48,280 Speaker 3: We'll talk to you again soon, Sam, Dickie for your funds. Okay, 1916 01:29:49,160 --> 01:29:51,280 Speaker 3: if you're worried about productivity, I've just got to run 1917 01:29:51,320 --> 01:29:53,080 Speaker 3: you through this because this stuff is really important. Right, 1918 01:29:53,120 --> 01:29:55,200 Speaker 3: if you're worried about productivity in this country, you're not 1919 01:29:55,240 --> 01:29:57,240 Speaker 3: going to like the latest data. It's gone backwards in 1920 01:29:57,320 --> 01:29:59,639 Speaker 3: all industries and across all main regions. This is according 1921 01:29:59,680 --> 01:30:02,920 Speaker 3: to zero put out the data today. Productivity fell across 1922 01:30:02,960 --> 01:30:06,120 Speaker 3: the country six percent on average last year. Agriculture suffered 1923 01:30:06,160 --> 01:30:08,800 Speaker 3: the worst twelve percent drop, hospo sector nine percent drop, 1924 01:30:08,880 --> 01:30:12,200 Speaker 3: retail and real estate seven point eight percent drop, construction 1925 01:30:12,360 --> 01:30:14,960 Speaker 3: seven point four percent drop. Across the regions dropped the 1926 01:30:15,000 --> 01:30:18,040 Speaker 3: most in Wellington seven percent, Canterbury two percent, Auckland one 1927 01:30:18,080 --> 01:30:20,560 Speaker 3: point two percent. So it's not looking that good, but 1928 01:30:20,640 --> 01:30:22,880 Speaker 3: hopefully that's just a function of where we're at economically 1929 01:30:22,880 --> 01:30:25,080 Speaker 3: and it'll fix itself. Now, do you want some home 1930 01:30:25,120 --> 01:30:28,920 Speaker 3: truths about New Zealand. I've been meaning to actually saw 1931 01:30:29,000 --> 01:30:30,880 Speaker 3: this yesterday and was meaning to draw it to your attention, 1932 01:30:31,000 --> 01:30:32,800 Speaker 3: but I didn't have a chance. We do it now, okay. 1933 01:30:33,160 --> 01:30:36,519 Speaker 3: So a British mother went on Mum's Net, which is 1934 01:30:37,240 --> 01:30:39,639 Speaker 3: lots of mums use mum's Net to ask each other questions. 1935 01:30:39,680 --> 01:30:40,200 Speaker 25: Not this mum. 1936 01:30:40,800 --> 01:30:42,880 Speaker 3: I don't know why, but other mums do. And so 1937 01:30:43,280 --> 01:30:45,559 Speaker 3: she went on and she said her husband was worried 1938 01:30:45,560 --> 01:30:47,720 Speaker 3: about the threat of war in the UK. He'd been 1939 01:30:47,760 --> 01:30:50,439 Speaker 3: offered a job in New Zealand and they were considering 1940 01:30:50,560 --> 01:30:52,760 Speaker 3: taking it and letting their sons start school over here. 1941 01:30:52,800 --> 01:30:56,160 Speaker 3: Should she do it well. The overwhelming response was do 1942 01:30:56,840 --> 01:30:59,720 Speaker 3: do not go there. One brit who lives in Auckland wrote, 1943 01:30:59,760 --> 01:31:04,120 Speaker 3: way a shite food is expensive, houses are cold, transport 1944 01:31:04,320 --> 01:31:07,400 Speaker 3: is crap. Is any of that untrue? It's all true, 1945 01:31:07,479 --> 01:31:11,760 Speaker 3: isn't it. Someone says our pay in New Zealand doesn't 1946 01:31:11,800 --> 01:31:14,719 Speaker 3: go as far. Food is really really expensive, particularly fruit 1947 01:31:14,760 --> 01:31:16,280 Speaker 3: and veg. I'm in the UK at the moment. Food 1948 01:31:16,360 --> 01:31:19,240 Speaker 3: is still cheap here. By comparison. Others claim that the 1949 01:31:19,320 --> 01:31:22,280 Speaker 3: cost of dental care is prohibitive compared to the UK 1950 01:31:22,400 --> 01:31:25,560 Speaker 3: public system, with one saying any Kiwi you meet with 1951 01:31:25,760 --> 01:31:27,600 Speaker 3: decent two teeth is. 1952 01:31:27,800 --> 01:31:28,519 Speaker 2: Very well to do. 1953 01:31:29,720 --> 01:31:31,120 Speaker 3: So there you go. If you look in that view, 1954 01:31:31,200 --> 01:31:32,840 Speaker 3: if you have a look in the mirror and you're like, oh, 1955 01:31:32,920 --> 01:31:35,479 Speaker 3: that's a there's a nice set of perilars, you're rich 1956 01:31:35,640 --> 01:31:38,479 Speaker 3: mate that they're complaining about things like it's it's a 1957 01:31:38,560 --> 01:31:41,360 Speaker 3: long way to go, it's boring, there's not a lot 1958 01:31:41,400 --> 01:31:44,679 Speaker 3: to do. Yeah, it's cold, all the typical stuff. Someone 1959 01:31:44,760 --> 01:31:48,160 Speaker 3: says it's it's like stepping back into the nineteen eighties. 1960 01:31:48,800 --> 01:31:52,400 Speaker 3: Beautiful but a bit weird, which I think means probably 1961 01:31:52,400 --> 01:31:54,040 Speaker 3: because you visited in the nineteen eighties. 1962 01:31:54,080 --> 01:31:54,880 Speaker 2: You absolute dark. 1963 01:31:55,560 --> 01:31:58,760 Speaker 3: My son lives in Auckland. It's really boring. He likes 1964 01:31:58,840 --> 01:32:00,840 Speaker 3: it and that's the city. He likes it. But he 1965 01:32:00,960 --> 01:32:03,200 Speaker 3: was a boring old fart when he was a teenager. 1966 01:32:04,000 --> 01:32:05,840 Speaker 3: If you get invited to someone's house in winter, you 1967 01:32:05,920 --> 01:32:07,720 Speaker 3: have to take an extra jumper and socks because you'll 1968 01:32:07,720 --> 01:32:08,479 Speaker 3: probably get cold. 1969 01:32:08,680 --> 01:32:09,280 Speaker 22: That is true. 1970 01:32:09,439 --> 01:32:12,479 Speaker 3: I've experienced that typically when most people invite you over 1971 01:32:12,479 --> 01:32:13,960 Speaker 3: to the house, you have to bring a plate because 1972 01:32:13,960 --> 01:32:17,960 Speaker 3: the host can't afford to cater for those that they 1973 01:32:18,040 --> 01:32:20,479 Speaker 3: have invited. That's not the reason that we get you 1974 01:32:20,560 --> 01:32:23,200 Speaker 3: to bring a play is because we're lazy anyway, that's 1975 01:32:23,240 --> 01:32:26,759 Speaker 3: what people think. One person, though, did say the food 1976 01:32:26,840 --> 01:32:29,080 Speaker 3: that you get here is out the gate better than 1977 01:32:29,120 --> 01:32:30,840 Speaker 3: anything you get in the UK. And that's the truth. 1978 01:32:30,880 --> 01:32:32,320 Speaker 3: If you've ever tried to eat in the UK, and 1979 01:32:32,400 --> 01:32:35,120 Speaker 3: I'm looking at you Wales, mate, may as well just 1980 01:32:35,200 --> 01:32:37,400 Speaker 3: eat some cardboard. That's what that tastes like. 1981 01:32:37,600 --> 01:32:41,760 Speaker 2: Quarter two Everything from SMEs to the big corporates. 1982 01:32:41,880 --> 01:32:45,479 Speaker 1: The Business Hour with Heather Duplicy, Allen and my Hr, 1983 01:32:45,800 --> 01:32:47,599 Speaker 1: the HR platform for sme. 1984 01:32:47,760 --> 01:32:48,920 Speaker 2: US talksb. 1985 01:32:50,280 --> 01:32:53,160 Speaker 3: And Brady's our UK correspondent. This evening evening ender. 1986 01:32:53,960 --> 01:32:55,200 Speaker 4: Hello, have the good speaker? 1987 01:32:55,439 --> 01:32:57,800 Speaker 3: Are you following this case about the nurse who murdered 1988 01:32:57,840 --> 01:32:58,320 Speaker 3: the babies? 1989 01:32:59,520 --> 01:33:03,280 Speaker 4: Yes, oh, this is very interesting because it's a retrial. 1990 01:33:03,520 --> 01:33:05,439 Speaker 4: So Lucy let Be is her name. You may have 1991 01:33:05,520 --> 01:33:07,960 Speaker 4: heard that name last year when she was convicted in 1992 01:33:08,080 --> 01:33:10,519 Speaker 4: a separate case. So I'll just explain what happened last 1993 01:33:10,600 --> 01:33:14,080 Speaker 4: year because it's important. Thirty four year old nurse hospital 1994 01:33:14,160 --> 01:33:16,120 Speaker 4: in Chester, which is on the Welsh border up in 1995 01:33:16,160 --> 01:33:19,400 Speaker 4: the northwest of England, and she was convicted of the 1996 01:33:19,560 --> 01:33:25,960 Speaker 4: murders of seven infants and the attempted murders of seven more. Now, crucially, 1997 01:33:26,520 --> 01:33:29,280 Speaker 4: the jury could not reach verdicts on six counts of 1998 01:33:29,360 --> 01:33:32,920 Speaker 4: attempted murder, so they were basically parked while she was 1999 01:33:33,080 --> 01:33:35,519 Speaker 4: jailed for the fourteen crimes she was convicted of. So 2000 01:33:35,640 --> 01:33:39,120 Speaker 4: seven murders and seven attempted murders she got fourteen life 2001 01:33:39,200 --> 01:33:41,880 Speaker 4: sentences and she has been told she will die in 2002 01:33:42,000 --> 01:33:45,719 Speaker 4: prison now of the six charges that the jury couldn't 2003 01:33:45,760 --> 01:33:48,560 Speaker 4: reach verdicts on, what the prosecution have done now is 2004 01:33:48,560 --> 01:33:50,920 Speaker 4: they've come back with one of those cases, a little 2005 01:33:51,000 --> 01:33:52,880 Speaker 4: baby girl. They were all given a letter of the 2006 01:33:52,920 --> 01:33:56,000 Speaker 4: alphabet baby kay A little baby girl who died in 2007 01:33:56,080 --> 01:33:59,759 Speaker 4: February twenty sixteen. Sorry, she was attacked in February twenty sixteen, 2008 01:34:00,040 --> 01:34:02,360 Speaker 4: and the prosecution are now saying that that was attempted 2009 01:34:02,479 --> 01:34:07,400 Speaker 4: murder committed by Lucy Lepbie. She denies the charges, and 2010 01:34:07,520 --> 01:34:11,439 Speaker 4: the trial is now underway and in the opening stages 2011 01:34:11,520 --> 01:34:14,439 Speaker 4: the prosecution have said that all that evidence last year 2012 01:34:14,479 --> 01:34:17,559 Speaker 4: in her convictions form a very significant part of their 2013 01:34:17,640 --> 01:34:20,559 Speaker 4: case in this so it's attempted murder, which she denies. 2014 01:34:20,920 --> 01:34:23,240 Speaker 3: Really interesting that the jury have been told that she's 2015 01:34:23,240 --> 01:34:25,760 Speaker 3: already been convicted for murders, because generally you try to 2016 01:34:25,800 --> 01:34:30,519 Speaker 3: keep those things separate, right, so that one accusation doesn't 2017 01:34:30,600 --> 01:34:31,840 Speaker 3: taint the following jury. 2018 01:34:32,720 --> 01:34:38,160 Speaker 4: I would say traditionally illegally yes, But unfortunately her face 2019 01:34:38,200 --> 01:34:40,280 Speaker 4: has been all over every newspaper here in the past 2020 01:34:40,320 --> 01:34:43,360 Speaker 4: twelve months, and you know, you could walk out onto 2021 01:34:43,400 --> 01:34:45,200 Speaker 4: the street and say do you recognize this woman and 2022 01:34:45,240 --> 01:34:47,640 Speaker 4: they would say, oh, isn't she that nurse? So I 2023 01:34:47,760 --> 01:34:51,080 Speaker 4: think the lawyers and there have been lots of legal discussion, 2024 01:34:51,160 --> 01:34:54,160 Speaker 4: but I'm sure they've basically just said to the jury 2025 01:34:54,200 --> 01:34:56,600 Speaker 4: that you know, you may recognize this defendant or you 2026 01:34:56,680 --> 01:35:00,240 Speaker 4: may know this name. This is what has happened. So 2027 01:35:00,560 --> 01:35:03,640 Speaker 4: it's but she's entitled to a fair trial, which she 2028 01:35:03,720 --> 01:35:06,160 Speaker 4: will get. She denies the charge of attempted murder and 2029 01:35:06,240 --> 01:35:07,720 Speaker 4: the case continues in. 2030 01:35:08,000 --> 01:35:12,040 Speaker 3: This rice between this competition between Rashie Sunek and Sir 2031 01:35:12,120 --> 01:35:14,960 Speaker 3: Kiyastama to be the most normal is getting ridiculous, right, 2032 01:35:15,000 --> 01:35:17,400 Speaker 3: has reached a new low point for the sky TV stuff, 2033 01:35:17,439 --> 01:35:17,760 Speaker 3: hasn't it? 2034 01:35:18,680 --> 01:35:20,960 Speaker 4: Well, look he said it. You know, you wonder who's 2035 01:35:21,000 --> 01:35:24,240 Speaker 4: advising Sunac because he was asked the question, you know, 2036 01:35:24,360 --> 01:35:28,120 Speaker 4: what sacrifices have you made? And he stumbled and bumbled 2037 01:35:28,120 --> 01:35:30,840 Speaker 4: as he just keeps doing. And then eventually when he 2038 01:35:30,920 --> 01:35:32,880 Speaker 4: was asked to name one sacrifice he had made, he 2039 01:35:32,960 --> 01:35:36,360 Speaker 4: said that he didn't have Sky TV basically Fox Tell 2040 01:35:36,400 --> 01:35:38,320 Speaker 4: it's about one hundred and twenty dollars a month now, 2041 01:35:39,320 --> 01:35:40,840 Speaker 4: and I used to work there and I know the 2042 01:35:40,920 --> 01:35:43,400 Speaker 4: sky system inside out. I was there for two decades. 2043 01:35:44,560 --> 01:35:47,240 Speaker 4: He said that as a young person growing up, he 2044 01:35:47,720 --> 01:35:50,200 Speaker 4: famously is the words he used, famously, we didn't have 2045 01:35:50,400 --> 01:35:54,840 Speaker 4: sky I think to even bring up subscription TV that's 2046 01:35:54,880 --> 01:35:56,960 Speaker 4: one hundred and twenty dollars a month when there are 2047 01:35:57,080 --> 01:35:59,840 Speaker 4: children in the UK right now on his government's watch, 2048 01:36:00,240 --> 01:36:03,120 Speaker 4: not getting two meals a day. There are twenty two 2049 01:36:03,200 --> 01:36:06,120 Speaker 4: hundred food banks where people are going to get their food. 2050 01:36:07,000 --> 01:36:09,640 Speaker 4: I mean, it's staggering that he has even said this 2051 01:36:10,040 --> 01:36:12,320 Speaker 4: and Starmer. I watched the debate last night between the 2052 01:36:12,360 --> 01:36:16,160 Speaker 4: two of them in Grimsby and I thought Starmer absolutely 2053 01:36:16,200 --> 01:36:18,400 Speaker 4: smashed it. I thought he had answers for everything. He 2054 01:36:18,520 --> 01:36:21,120 Speaker 4: looked like a Prime Minister in waiting, and the key 2055 01:36:21,280 --> 01:36:25,360 Speaker 4: phrase he kept saying was country first, party second. And 2056 01:36:25,479 --> 01:36:28,840 Speaker 4: I think, hand on heart, the most true blue Conservatives 2057 01:36:28,880 --> 01:36:31,160 Speaker 4: in the country for the last fourteen years, if they 2058 01:36:31,200 --> 01:36:33,880 Speaker 4: were asked that question, could you truly say that your 2059 01:36:33,960 --> 01:36:37,240 Speaker 4: people have put the country over the party. I don't 2060 01:36:37,280 --> 01:36:38,599 Speaker 4: think they could answer that honestly. 2061 01:36:38,760 --> 01:36:41,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a fair point.

Their 2128 01:39:30,080 --> 01:39:32,599 Speaker 3: eyes are a little too close together, and they've got 2129 01:39:32,640 --> 01:39:34,720 Speaker 3: a really pointed chin, like a heart shaped face with 2130 01:39:34,800 --> 01:39:37,960 Speaker 3: a pointy chin.
