Speaker 1: The Huddle with New Zealand Southerby's International Realty, local and

2
00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:06,240
Speaker 1: global exposure like no other.

3
00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:09,560
Speaker 2: Holy by the way, in the Cricket twelve for three.

4
00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:12,760
Speaker 2: So maybe we'll all just retract the comments we made

5
00:00:12,760 --> 00:00:14,880
Speaker 2: about the black Caps doing badly. It looks like it's

6
00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:19,040
Speaker 2: actually going like unseasonably well. Nick Mills, Wellington Mornings host

7
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:22,239
Speaker 2: and Mark Sainsbury broadcaster is with us on the huddle.

8
00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:22,760
Speaker 2: Hull are you.

9
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:26,720
Speaker 3: Too right to both of you?

10
00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:28,720
Speaker 2: Says how are you feeling about? Just so you triggered?

11
00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:31,920
Speaker 4: Look the thing with just and I mean there's two

12
00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:34,319
Speaker 4: things and you it's great you nailed both of them.

13
00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:36,199
Speaker 4: One was I was really surprised she took it to

14
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:39,320
Speaker 4: begin with the Dame, because you know, Helen Clark would not,

15
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:42,320
Speaker 4: Jim Bolger would not, you know. And I found it

16
00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:44,720
Speaker 4: really really hot. And as you say, well, you could

17
00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:46,800
Speaker 4: argue you're going to use it to you know, gives

18
00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:49,800
Speaker 4: you a bit of status to do greater good. I mean, look,

19
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:52,760
Speaker 4: and the other thing is she is regarded totally differently

20
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:54,680
Speaker 4: overseas than what she is here. There's a lot of

21
00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:57,760
Speaker 4: people here who just simply hate it. And I remember

22
00:00:57,800 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 4: when they're remember running in the Grant Roberts at once

23
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:01,840
Speaker 4: some it was a book launch, just something, and he

24
00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:04,080
Speaker 4: said to me the DPS have told him not to

25
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:07,440
Speaker 4: leave the building for two days. Thinking. I remember thinking

26
00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:09,080
Speaker 4: at the time, is this what we've come to? So

27
00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:11,760
Speaker 4: there's all that sort of true Away from New Zealand,

28
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:14,200
Speaker 4: I mean outside of New Zealand, she's very highly regarded.

29
00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:17,400
Speaker 4: Did lady used John Key as the same role?

30
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 3: You know?

31
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:19,560
Speaker 4: I mean you could say it's all very well from

32
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:21,839
Speaker 4: say that today today extend the hand to a former

33
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:23,320
Speaker 4: prime minister who could be useful.

34
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:24,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a fair point that you make it. We

35
00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:27,480
Speaker 2: didn't and when John Key, I mean after John Key,

36
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:29,920
Speaker 2: we're actually pretty fine. Fettal as a country, we're much

37
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:32,200
Speaker 2: more stuffed and really need the pr at the moment,

38
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:34,840
Speaker 2: what do you think, Nick, Are you triggered by her

39
00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:37,120
Speaker 2: or are you feeling just like chill vibes at the moment.

40
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:40,200
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't think anybody should get a dame

41
00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:42,880
Speaker 3: hood or a knighthood when you're under about fifty or

42
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:45,640
Speaker 3: fifty five. I've got a real problem. I always thought

43
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 3: that there was a lifetime of commitment to something, a

44
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:51,400
Speaker 3: lifetime of doing something to create that, So I've got

45
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 3: a real problem with these young people picking them up.

46
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 3: That's the first thing. Secondly, life changed for Jasinda Ardurm

47
00:01:57,520 --> 00:01:59,920
Speaker 3: when she opened a school in christ Church, well somewhere

48
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:01,840
Speaker 3: down south. You remember it when she came in the

49
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 3: van and everyone was banging on the van. Oh you know,

50
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 3: she was just opening a school. I mean we've never

51
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 3: seen anything like that before in New Zealand. So yes,

52
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 3: she's very popular, or was very popular internationally. They thought

53
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:18,480
Speaker 3: of her as this, you know, smart young woman that

54
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,720
Speaker 3: was running this country and taking us through COVID and

55
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 3: what a great effort. But I think it was was.

56
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:27,240
Speaker 3: I don't think it's current, and I think that Chippy's

57
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:29,440
Speaker 3: living in the past. But if she thinks that she

58
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:33,800
Speaker 3: can represent us and doing it, sure, I reckon.

59
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 2: She's still a big deal overseas. I mean she was

60
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,639
Speaker 2: at the on the sidelines of the Democratic Convention. The

61
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,040
Speaker 2: Prince and Princess of Wales have made a video and

62
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:42,639
Speaker 2: put it on their socials so that they can be

63
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:44,960
Speaker 2: associated with her, and she's all over the newspapers. Man,

64
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:46,440
Speaker 2: I reckon, she's got star pours door.

65
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 3: She was sidelined. She was sidelined on that convention. That's

66
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:51,400
Speaker 3: what it really got to me is they made a

67
00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:53,560
Speaker 3: big deal about it. She was out the back door

68
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:55,840
Speaker 3: talking to someone that no one ever knew. It wasn't

69
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:56,359
Speaker 3: a big deal.

70
00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,359
Speaker 4: Run a lot of stuff inside. But put it this way,

71
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 4: if they decide to have a New Zealand, we want

72
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:03,720
Speaker 4: business to come to New Zealand, do it New Zealand

73
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:06,720
Speaker 4: House in London? Would more people turn up I was

74
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:09,680
Speaker 4: hosted by Jasinda Adurn Or would more people turn up?

75
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 4: I was hosted by Chris Luxen Cindy every day?

76
00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:15,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, but you're missing you're missing a very What about

77
00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:18,359
Speaker 3: Peter Jackson? Now put him in the equation and tell

78
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 3: me who would turn up.

79
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 4: Peter doesn't need to turn up there.

80
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,160
Speaker 3: But I'm saying, if you you want someone to actually

81
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 3: represent your land and say, hey, what a great city want?

82
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 2: What about Lord Lord versus Jacinda?

83
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 3: Well if you answer to that different crowd.

84
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 4: And I think Beanie should get it. Oh good Lord

85
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 4: and a Dane hood that upset.

86
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 3: Gim Bark Satry, gim Bark sadriy at knighthood knighthood.

87
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:47,480
Speaker 2: I come home with knighthoods for everyone and we'll take

88
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 2: a break, come back with these two votes. Shortly it's called.

00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:57,160

00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 4: I just pointed, would you take a dame hood?

94
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:06,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I've got no principles. Would you? Would you?

95
00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 4: Well, I call myself a Republican. I like think, no,

96
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:10,920
Speaker 4: I wouldn't. I don't know if i'd like to be tested?

97
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:12,720
Speaker 4: You think? Would this be upgrades for the rest of

98
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:13,040
Speaker 4: your life?

99
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:14,280
Speaker 2: Would you? Would you? Would you?

100
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:14,720
Speaker 3: Of course? It?

101
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,240
Speaker 2: Would you get business class? You get business crass those

102
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,200
Speaker 2: new seats right at the front. Would you? Then, saying though,

103
00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:21,839
Speaker 2: if you got offered a knighthood, would you also insist

104
00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 2: that William give it to you?

105
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:26,160
Speaker 4: Look, I think I would say no. I would say

106
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:28,400
Speaker 4: that I wouldn't get off the one in any case.

107
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,720
Speaker 3: But no, can can I make a confession here?

108
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 4: You were off the one?

109
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:35,680
Speaker 3: No? No, no, I've got one of the ones underneath it.

110
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:37,560
Speaker 3: I've got an O to him. So that's I mean,

111
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:39,640
Speaker 3: I've already sort of gone on that.

112
00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:41,000
Speaker 2: Realm ndition or just a brag.

113
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:44,559
Speaker 3: Well, no, I'm I'm just actually playing with a straight

114
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:48,680
Speaker 3: are you, republic Would you take a night out? You know?

115
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:50,600
Speaker 3: Would I take a night now? Because I don't. I'm

116
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,240
Speaker 3: not deservant of one. If I was deserved of one,

117
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:55,640
Speaker 3: I would definitely take it. I mean, I'm not deservant

118
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 3: of one, and I wouldn't take it.

119
00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:59,440
Speaker 2: Okay, Hey, next, so what are you reckons going to

120
00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:00,840
Speaker 2: happen here with the council?

121
00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:01,159
Speaker 3: Are you?

122
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:03,400
Speaker 2: Are you getting the vibes that the Government's going to

123
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:06,400
Speaker 2: intervene and that Tory has not at all convinced to

124
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:07,039
Speaker 2: mean today?

125
00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:10,440
Speaker 3: Can I tell you firstly that your interview with Tim

126
00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:13,640
Speaker 3: Brown is one of the best interviews of my whole life.

127
00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:15,960
Speaker 3: I have played it back more than I've played a

128
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:16,880
Speaker 3: Beatles song back.

129
00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:20,279
Speaker 2: I appreciate that from you because your interview with Tory

130
00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:23,440
Speaker 2: was outstanding and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

131
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 3: Well, it's not the mutual answer society here, but admiration

132
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:29,960
Speaker 3: society here. But no, and I'm going to I'm going

133
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:33,360
Speaker 3: to say this really really clearly, nothing is at very

134
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:35,919
Speaker 3: very worse than it won't happen untill no, it's not

135
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:38,039
Speaker 3: going to even happen. That they would put an observer

136
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:41,480
Speaker 3: in like it's nearly Christmas. Right in Wellington. It's nearly Christmas,

137
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:43,560
Speaker 3: it's nearly the end of the year. Nothing's going to

138
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:45,920
Speaker 3: happen before the end of the year. Then we're back

139
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:49,080
Speaker 3: at February March, before everyone puts their feet under the table.

140
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 3: Then it's April, May, June, July, August, before an election.

141
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:54,960
Speaker 3: They won't do a damn thing. They will just put

142
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,600
Speaker 3: it back on Willingtonian's to vote the right way at

143
00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 3: the next election, now, you know, and some of me

144
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,520
Speaker 3: says that's the right thing to do. It is a disaster.

145
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,880
Speaker 3: I watched that special meeting. I've never wasted three hours

146
00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:09,040
Speaker 3: of my life ever before, the same way that the

147
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:12,840
Speaker 3: actual council is. The whole council is an absolute disaster.

148
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 3: It really is. But I mean, if Simon hasn't done anything, now,

149
00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:18,279
Speaker 3: when is he going to do something?

150
00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:19,600
Speaker 2: I reckon he does something by the end of the

151
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 2: night sayings, I'll tell you what. What I think was

152
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:25,279
Speaker 2: fascinating is so Tory calls a meeting with Simeon to

153
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:28,640
Speaker 2: try to stop him intervening. Then she has the meeting

154
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:31,800
Speaker 2: with Simeon and they don't even mention government intervention. Isn't

155
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:32,279
Speaker 2: that weird?

156
00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:35,159
Speaker 4: It's very weird. Well it's you know, like, don't mention

157
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:37,440
Speaker 4: the war, the most telling thing that has been And Tolly,

160
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,680
Speaker 4: very big step to take it. It is a very

161
00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:48,240
Speaker 4: very big step. And it's politically risky as well. You
