1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:02,480 Speaker 1: Here to wake us up. Jack Tame, host of Saturday 2 00:00:02,480 --> 00:00:05,000 Speaker 1: Mornings and Q and a Jack Good evening. 3 00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:09,119 Speaker 2: Good evening, Ryan, you should have stuck with the Argentina question. Honestly, 4 00:00:09,119 --> 00:00:10,119 Speaker 2: I want to know more about it. 5 00:00:10,119 --> 00:00:13,520 Speaker 1: I know, I know, very cool and he got to 6 00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:15,560 Speaker 1: meet him and he went to his office and all 7 00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:18,239 Speaker 1: that stuff. Hey, fellow, ridings with us as well. I'm 8 00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:19,640 Speaker 1: do partners feel good evening. 9 00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:21,880 Speaker 3: There you go, mate, And and I've had a few 10 00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:24,520 Speaker 3: decent sized stakes in Argentina. They are just the best 11 00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:26,920 Speaker 3: steaks outside of New Zealand. Of course I'm a very 12 00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:29,640 Speaker 3: law man, but the stakes in Argentina, havel, I'm about 13 00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:32,520 Speaker 3: mid night sess the nature of the beast. But fantastic 14 00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:34,600 Speaker 3: place Argentina. I agree with David on that's a great spot. 15 00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:37,239 Speaker 1: Yeah, beautiful. Right, let's talk about that. So we've got 16 00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:41,200 Speaker 1: an election date. Either of you raise your hand, will 17 00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:44,440 Speaker 1: say your name, willing to take a punt on the outcome? 18 00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:51,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, there we go. The two things that you've got 19 00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:52,760 Speaker 3: to worry about with election of your government or the 20 00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:56,360 Speaker 3: opporitiontional one is is the economic recovery that's currently going 21 00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:58,800 Speaker 3: on going to be widely felt by New Zealanders right 22 00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:01,080 Speaker 3: by November, and that's what was just talking about them 23 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:02,720 Speaker 3: and ago he put it more nicely than that, but 24 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:06,080 Speaker 3: he's really saying the government wants some time to see 25 00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:08,120 Speaker 3: that this government recovery is going to go on. The 26 00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:10,120 Speaker 3: second thing is does the government get to own it? 27 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:12,600 Speaker 3: Does the government get to say to New Zealand as well, 28 00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:14,559 Speaker 3: we help that, we help that come and as a result, 29 00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:15,880 Speaker 3: you should vote for us. It's not the other mob, 30 00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:18,000 Speaker 3: because they'll up your taxes or whatever the lines they use. 31 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:20,560 Speaker 3: And that's where you've got to make a guest. Now 32 00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:22,880 Speaker 3: I'm going to make a view and where we're sitty 33 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 3: taking this view in our business. It's most likely that 34 00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 3: there does actually a care in that the government's re 35 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:29,440 Speaker 3: elected in some form, but g it's a close run thing. 36 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:32,360 Speaker 3: And bear in mind, even if the government is reelected, 37 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:35,600 Speaker 3: it won't be the same government. Even if Luxelon is 38 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:37,160 Speaker 3: the Prime Minister in November, it will be a different 39 00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:38,760 Speaker 3: form of government. There will be a different mix of 40 00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,040 Speaker 3: the of the party. So I think I think at 41 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:42,560 Speaker 3: this moment it's a close run thing, but it's most 42 00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 3: likely I think the government gets re elected, but GEO 43 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:47,960 Speaker 3: could easily come up with another proposition just the opposite Jack. 44 00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 2: I think, as it stands today, Ryan, I think it's likelier, 45 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:56,160 Speaker 2: much likelier, that some version of the current government or 46 00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:59,160 Speaker 2: something adjacent to the current government is returned. I don't 47 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:01,080 Speaker 2: know if I put a number on it, but I 48 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 2: think that's much more likely than a labor leed government 49 00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 2: being in government next. 50 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:06,880 Speaker 3: I think there are. 51 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:09,280 Speaker 2: Two big risks I think about when I think about 52 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:13,160 Speaker 2: the current government, Christopher Luxen and Precipitns the opposition. On 53 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:17,560 Speaker 2: the opposition side, I think by the timing of the 54 00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:21,839 Speaker 2: economic recovery, there is a risk that seven or eight 55 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:24,360 Speaker 2: months from now they are going to be arguing to 56 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 2: New Zealanders about how bad the economy has been rather 57 00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:31,280 Speaker 2: than what people are actually experiencing. And that if you're 58 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 2: trying to say, hey, stuff's really really bad and people 59 00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:35,920 Speaker 2: are actually feeling a little bit of optimism in the 60 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:37,680 Speaker 2: economy for the first time in a couple of years, 61 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:39,000 Speaker 2: that's a very tricky place to. 62 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 3: Be as an opposition. 63 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 2: And I think on the government side of things, a 64 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:45,919 Speaker 2: black Swan event like is it totally incomprehensible that we 65 00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 2: could see the US move against Greenland, that we could 66 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 2: see action in the Taiwan Straate or something like that 67 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:54,359 Speaker 2: over the next nine months. That might once again put 68 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 2: a massive spanner in the works of the global economy, 69 00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:00,919 Speaker 2: which I think would play against the current government there. 70 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:02,120 Speaker 1: Because I was thinking about that this morning. 71 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 3: Jack. 72 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:04,520 Speaker 1: Do you think that would play against the government or 73 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:06,640 Speaker 1: do you think, as was the case in Australia with 74 00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 1: the terrorists, actually it could play to the favor of 75 00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:11,960 Speaker 1: let's stick with the you know, the devil we know. 76 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, honestly, I don't know. I mean, I don't know 77 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 2: that Christopher Luxen has necessarily connected with people in a 78 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 2: way that he would have hoped he has over you know, 79 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:25,360 Speaker 2: over the last couple of years. Would that mean that 80 00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:29,080 Speaker 2: people turfed out the current government and appointed labor and 81 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:33,080 Speaker 2: a glimb of in a moment of you know, topsy 82 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 2: turbinus internationally, I don't know. It also depends on where 83 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 2: the Americans actually are, Like, would we be positioned against 84 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:41,080 Speaker 2: the Americans in a black spot? It's one event, who knows, honestly, 85 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 2: it's just like putting your finger in the air and guessing. 86 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 3: But that the US midterms take place, the US midterm elections, 87 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 3: which could lose Trump quite a lot of power on 88 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:52,520 Speaker 3: the US take place November the third, four days before 89 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 3: the election, so there's going to be a lot of 90 00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:57,120 Speaker 3: hoop plower around that, a lot of instability clearly in 91 00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:59,680 Speaker 3: the US domestic political seeing the most consequential elections of 92 00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 3: the year. I start that. So to Jack's point, I 93 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 3: agree with them that these risks are a risk for 94 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 3: the government just as much as they are for the opposition. 95 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:08,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, which means vote on election day, don't go early 96 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 1: because you need all the information you can get. Jack 97 00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:13,640 Speaker 1: Team and Phill O'Riley on the huddle tonight, guys, Jack 98 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 1: will start with you on the social media ban under sixteens. 99 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:18,920 Speaker 1: There's this poll from the Post that says sixty five 100 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 1: percent would support it. What do you reckon? 101 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 2: I'm I'm honestly surprised it's not higher Asian womens of 102 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:26,919 Speaker 2: the poll. I was like, oh, we're under sixteen allowed 103 00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 2: to vote on this as well. 104 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:31,279 Speaker 3: I reckon. 105 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:35,039 Speaker 2: I reckon in a couple of years that this is 106 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 2: this is going to be the norm among countries that 107 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,280 Speaker 2: we usually compare ourselves with. I reckon, like a lot 108 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 2: of OCD countries are not OCD as opposed to OCD. 109 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 2: I think you're going to follow this pass, not including 110 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,479 Speaker 2: the United States for obvious reasons. But I think unless 111 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 2: as a real catastrophe in Australia, this is going to 112 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 2: become the kind of mainstream policy of a lot of 113 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 2: interrist parties. 114 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:01,200 Speaker 3: Around the world. 115 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:02,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, how to argue with that? 116 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 3: Fell, Yeah, I think and I agree with that. What 117 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 3: was interesting about that survey result was that the majority 118 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:10,360 Speaker 3: of eighteen year olds thought that was a good idea. 119 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 3: Interesting a. So even those who were very close to 120 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 3: being part of the band, even a majority of them 121 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:18,720 Speaker 3: said it's a good idea to do this. And Jack Swright, 122 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 3: I think what's happening in Australia. It's imperfect. I see 123 00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:24,280 Speaker 3: something like four million accounts have been closed down and 124 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 3: some of the complaints are all the kids had to 125 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 3: stop on Whatsapple one of those one of those message 126 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 3: ups that's not yet been banned for them. And so 127 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:32,919 Speaker 3: that the point is that yes, it's imperfect, and yes 128 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 3: to be all sorts of work arounds and people screwing 129 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:38,239 Speaker 3: the scrum if you like, and getting online with different 130 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 3: personas that's on, And that goes back to parental responsibility. 131 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 3: Those parents should really be helping this because there's no 132 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,760 Speaker 3: question that the evidence is in on this. Social media 133 00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:50,599 Speaker 3: is harmful to those to young people in many many, 134 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 3: not all, but in many, many circumstances. And I agree 135 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,720 Speaker 3: with Jack. I think the Australian experience imperfect. Though it is, 136 00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 3: I think will be copied and is being copied. You're 137 00:05:58,080 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 3: hearing it being talked about in the UK and elsewhere 138 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:01,840 Speaker 3: it so I think the government will announce it and 139 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:04,719 Speaker 3: I think it'll be very popular amongst their potential voters. 140 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 1: It's one of those things where people know it's bad 141 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:09,839 Speaker 1: for them, but they can't stop it, and they almost 142 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:12,039 Speaker 1: want someone else to tell them that they can't. 143 00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:15,080 Speaker 3: You know, there is there is like a. 144 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 2: Speech stuff there. There are some pre speech you know, 145 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,800 Speaker 2: concerns and some personal liberty concerns. I'm sure if you 146 00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:27,279 Speaker 2: asked David Seymore he would take a very different position 147 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:30,080 Speaker 2: to a lot of other people about the band. But 148 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 2: I mean, this is the good thing about having Australia right. 149 00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:35,480 Speaker 2: We can we can watch very closely how things go 150 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:38,400 Speaker 2: over the next six months or so. It might be 151 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:42,360 Speaker 2: you know, a little early for really detailed data as 152 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 2: the overall effects on kids, but we've got a perfect 153 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:45,279 Speaker 2: test case. 154 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:48,280 Speaker 1: Just over the day, Jack Tame Pillow Riley on the Huddle. 155 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:51,880 Speaker 2: For more from Heather Duplessy Allen Drive.
