1 00:00:01,480 --> 00:00:03,920 Speaker 1: The only drive show you can try the truck to 2 00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:07,720 Speaker 1: ask the questions, get the answers, find the fag and 3 00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:09,480 Speaker 1: give the analysis. 4 00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:11,040 Speaker 2: Heather Duplicy Ellen. 5 00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:14,480 Speaker 1: Drive with One New Zealand and the power of satellite 6 00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:15,960 Speaker 1: mobile News Dogs'd be. 7 00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:18,200 Speaker 3: Afternoon. 8 00:00:18,280 --> 00:00:19,000 Speaker 4: Welcome to the show. 9 00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:22,480 Speaker 5: Coming up today, Ruth Richardson on Jim Bolger Gloria They'll 10 00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:24,880 Speaker 5: leave a Virginia Courage on the treatment of babies that 11 00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:28,000 Speaker 5: she witnessed. And Sean Plunkett on his fight with the BSA. 12 00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:29,600 Speaker 2: Heather Duplessy Ellen. 13 00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:31,520 Speaker 5: There is a common word I've heard so many people 14 00:00:31,560 --> 00:00:34,519 Speaker 5: repeating today when remembering Jim Bolger, and that is decent. 15 00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:37,960 Speaker 5: He was decent. He was a decent Kiwi. He was 16 00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:43,040 Speaker 5: a decent man, fair minded, intelligent, pragmatic, could talk and boy, 17 00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:45,160 Speaker 5: if you ever had the pleasure of meeting him, you'll 18 00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:48,239 Speaker 5: know that man could talk. Last time I saw him 19 00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:50,400 Speaker 5: was at a dinner early last year. I sat next 20 00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:53,240 Speaker 5: to him and I spent pretty much the entire dinner 21 00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:56,080 Speaker 5: listening to a dissertation on the benefits of fair pay agreements, 22 00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:59,080 Speaker 5: which I don't know about you, but not the best 23 00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:02,279 Speaker 5: way to spend a fry. And yet you know this 24 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:04,000 Speaker 5: is what we talked about, because Jim had been the 25 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:07,520 Speaker 5: chair you'll remember, of Grant and Jacinda's Fair Pay Agreements 26 00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:10,480 Speaker 5: Working Group, and that brings me to the contradiction of 27 00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:13,319 Speaker 5: Jim Bolger. That working group was one of the examples 28 00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:16,200 Speaker 5: of Jim Bolger changing his mind in recent years, and 29 00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:18,080 Speaker 5: there was a fair bit of that. His government in 30 00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:21,600 Speaker 5: the nineteen nineties passed the Employment Contracts Act, but Jacinda 31 00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:23,840 Speaker 5: and Grant hired him for the Fair Payments a Fair 32 00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:28,240 Speaker 5: Pay Agreements Working Group to essentially unwind that Employment Contracts Act, 33 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:31,280 Speaker 5: which he himself had become publicly critical of. He also 34 00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:34,240 Speaker 5: became critical of the neoliberal policies of his government. He 35 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 5: said they absolutely failed. Some people became very wealthy, others 36 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 5: became very poor. He was critical of Ruth Richardson's welfare cuts. 37 00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:44,280 Speaker 5: And I've wondered about this what happened to him in 38 00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:46,680 Speaker 5: recent years. I've wandered about that affair. Bit I wondered, 39 00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 5: did Jim Bolger criticize his own government because he had 40 00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:52,880 Speaker 5: the courage to admit that they might have made mistakes 41 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 5: and he had the courage to publicly change his mind, 42 00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:59,240 Speaker 5: Or did Jim Bolger criticize his own government because he 43 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:02,640 Speaker 5: didn't like the way that history remembered his government. I 44 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 5: don't know that he should have worried about that, because 45 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:06,680 Speaker 5: I think history has actually been kind to him. His 46 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 5: legacy is the treaty settlements which he and his colleagues 47 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 5: got underway, and that is despite opposition. And frankly, I 48 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:16,240 Speaker 5: can think of worse things than being remembered for being decent. 49 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 2: Together do for see Ellen. 50 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:23,880 Speaker 5: N nineteen text number standard textpece of players. I say, 51 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:25,959 Speaker 5: Ruth Richardson's with us half the five on that of course, 52 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:28,799 Speaker 5: Barry Soper, who smoked a fair number of cigarettes and 53 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:30,560 Speaker 5: drank a lot of whiskey with him, will be with 54 00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 5: us at about quarter to five now. Health Minister Simeon 55 00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 5: Brown this morning accused senior doctors of crossing an ethical 56 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 5: line by striking pretty tough talk. It was met with 57 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:42,680 Speaker 5: booze and jeers, because, of course, he delivered it at 58 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:44,799 Speaker 5: the Doctors' Union's annual conference. 59 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:48,079 Speaker 6: When a union chooses strike action that forces thousands of 60 00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 6: operations and appointments to be canceled, in my view, it 61 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:56,520 Speaker 6: crosses an ethical line. Doctors take on a professional duty. 62 00:02:57,360 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 5: Sarah Dalton is the executive director of the Association of 63 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:03,280 Speaker 5: Salaried Medical Specialists. Hi Sarah, Hi hever, how's it going 64 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 5: and good? Thank you? So why are the booing and jeering? 65 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:05,919 Speaker 4: Do you think? 66 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:09,919 Speaker 7: I think our members were genuinely shocked at the way 67 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:13,679 Speaker 7: the minister chose to characterize his strike action, and I 68 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:17,960 Speaker 7: guess his refusal to contemplate all of the many things 69 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 7: in the health system are getting away of them being 70 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 7: able to see and treat patients other than a for 71 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:23,839 Speaker 7: our strike next week. 72 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 5: Okay, So is it a case of doctors simply being frustrated. 73 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:29,359 Speaker 5: I mean it sounds like doctors are frustrated they can't 74 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:30,239 Speaker 5: get more money. Yeah. 75 00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:33,760 Speaker 7: Oh, I think it's a reasonable thing for any working 76 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 7: person to want the at terms and conditions to keep 77 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 7: pace with cost of left living, you know, and also 78 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:42,320 Speaker 7: for doctors. As we know, we're really struggling to attract 79 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:46,040 Speaker 7: and retain our senior medical indental workforce. We rely on 80 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:49,360 Speaker 7: on overseas workforce. They can go to Australia. As one 81 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 7: of our guests at conference said today, thank you for 82 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:55,840 Speaker 7: training our future medical workforce. They can earn heaps more 83 00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 7: over there. So we just really need to attend to 84 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 7: being realistic about holding on to the doctors. 85 00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:04,320 Speaker 2: We really need, Sarah. 86 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 5: I mean, I'm sorry to say this, but isn't he 87 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 5: right that an ethical line has been crossed? 88 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 7: I don't believe. So they're working people with rights to 89 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 7: protest if, for example, the employer refuses to bargain with them. 90 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:21,279 Speaker 7: Our last who offers to go to mediation with help 91 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 7: New Zealand to progress this have been refused. 92 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 5: But you were offering just this month, you guys, these 93 00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:30,839 Speaker 5: doctors were offered the opportunity to go to final arbitration. 94 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:32,760 Speaker 5: It would have settled it, it would have been fair, 95 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:34,479 Speaker 5: and they chose instead to strike. 96 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:40,080 Speaker 7: Well, we aren't confident that there's no formal arbitration process 97 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 7: in place in New Zealand. That is not the legislative 98 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:46,279 Speaker 7: framework that we're under. It's some of the Employment Relations Authority, 99 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 7: and that's about facilitated bargaining or in the case of 100 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:52,239 Speaker 7: Health New Zealand, they are making a pitch for fixing. 101 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 7: We don't believe they'll make that test. We think it 102 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:58,279 Speaker 7: is it is fair, lawful right to ratify a settlement 103 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:01,320 Speaker 7: that is negotiated between the union and the employer. 104 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,839 Speaker 5: But you can't. That's the point, right, So you guys 105 00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 5: are unable to reach a settlement with each other. I'm 106 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 5: not saying it's your fault or their fault. It simply 107 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:11,560 Speaker 5: you are unable to reach a point together. Final arbitration 108 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 5: would have sorted that. So you guys chose not to 109 00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 5: go to it. 110 00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:20,480 Speaker 7: You chose to strike, We chose to go back to 111 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 7: the table. I mean arbitration doesn't as the minister described, 112 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 7: it doesn't exist as a framework in the country. So 113 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:28,040 Speaker 7: he was kind of making a bit of a pitch. 114 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:31,359 Speaker 5: Was the loads of people go to final arbitration. 115 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:33,360 Speaker 7: I don't believe they do. 116 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:35,239 Speaker 5: Final arbitration. 117 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 7: That is a specific arrangement for the police, and that 118 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:41,600 Speaker 7: is because in part they are not allowed to take 119 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:44,120 Speaker 7: strike action, unlike most of the group. 120 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,480 Speaker 5: So the framework does exist, Sarah, So it would simply 121 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:49,920 Speaker 5: be that police. Yeah, but what's the problem. You simply 122 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:53,240 Speaker 5: transfer it to s There's nothing special about doctors as 123 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:56,279 Speaker 5: opposed to police. They could simply arbitrate in the same way. 124 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:00,160 Speaker 7: I guess that's one lens that you can bring to it. 125 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:03,200 Speaker 7: But our executive and our members believe that this can 126 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:06,599 Speaker 7: be settled. We don't think it is that hard to settle. 127 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:10,119 Speaker 7: But it would require Healthy Zealand to lift the office 128 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:11,640 Speaker 7: somewhat from where it sits at the moment. 129 00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 5: You guys have put yourself in the position where what 130 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:19,800 Speaker 5: Simeon Brown has said actually lands with people because we 131 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,600 Speaker 5: have seen you guys reject the offer to take it 132 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 5: to final arbitration and settle the thing once and for all, 133 00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 5: and instead choose to strike. So when he says you 134 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:30,360 Speaker 5: guys have crossed an ethical line, he may actually find 135 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:31,960 Speaker 5: this fertile ground. Don't you think. 136 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:36,719 Speaker 7: It's not the way we see it, And I don't 137 00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:39,160 Speaker 7: think you're right about the points you're making about arbitration. 138 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:42,400 Speaker 7: But as I've said, we are happy to continue the conversation. 139 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:45,480 Speaker 7: We believe that there are ways forward, and we were 140 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:49,440 Speaker 7: happy to accept the mediation services offer to support our bargaining. 141 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:52,160 Speaker 7: It's not us who are refusing to do that, it 142 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:54,720 Speaker 7: is the employer. We would really like Healthy Zealand to 143 00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 7: come back to the table. We had Dale Bramley, who's 144 00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:01,480 Speaker 7: the chief executive, talk with our executive Justice. He's really 145 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 7: keen to keep talking with us and working with us. 146 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:06,240 Speaker 7: I believe the door should be open and I'm also 147 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 7: consumed based on what the minister said to a conference 148 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 7: today that he isn't being accurately briefed by the officials 149 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:16,920 Speaker 7: who are leading negotia Vian negotiations. 150 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 5: Sarah, listen, thank you very much, appreciate it, Go back 151 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:22,200 Speaker 5: and enjoy the conference. That's Sarah Dulton, the executive director 152 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 5: of the Association of Salaried Medical Specialists. Look, we've got 153 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:27,680 Speaker 5: a little bit more trouble with the handing over of 154 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 5: hostage bodies over in Gaza. Israel's now saying that one 155 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,120 Speaker 5: of the four bodies that they got earlier this week 156 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 5: is not the body of a hostage, so they've only 157 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:40,200 Speaker 5: got three that Hamas is now handed over another two reportedly, 158 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:42,960 Speaker 5: but Huma says that's all they can do. And remember 159 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 5: it was like there were twenty eight in total, so 160 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 5: if Israel's got five, five to six, we're still short 161 00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 5: twenty something. Kamas is they can't retrieve the others because 162 00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:56,760 Speaker 5: they need time and they need specialized equipment to be 163 00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 5: able to recover them. They're all under the ruins of Gaza. 164 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 5: Trouble for them is that Trump is apparently Trump's ratcheting 165 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:05,800 Speaker 5: up the tough talk. He says, if they don't start 166 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 5: up holding their agreement, he's going to threaten he's going 167 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:10,480 Speaker 5: to send the Israelis back in quarter past. 168 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:15,200 Speaker 1: It's the Heather Dupiss Allen Drive Full Show podcast on 169 00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:17,880 Speaker 1: iHeartRadio powered my News Talk ZB. 170 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:21,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, as I thought, texts are definitely not in favor 171 00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 5: of the doctor's Heather. I'm sorry, but the doctors are 172 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 5: being precious and disrespectful. Sarah was being disingenuous. Simeon Brown 173 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 5: was on point with his comments. It's from Mark eighteen 174 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:30,480 Speaker 5: past four Sport with. 175 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:33,960 Speaker 2: Tab bed Live with in play R eighteen there. 176 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:37,319 Speaker 5: Responsibly Elliott Smith sports talk hosters of me. Hey, Elliott, So, 177 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:39,280 Speaker 5: Billy Slater doesn't love what rugby leagu's doing. 178 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 8: Yes, it's not necessary. I think the words were a 179 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:43,920 Speaker 8: little bit extreme. We talked yesterday obviously about the ten 180 00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 8: year band that Peter Landy's in, the ARL or the 181 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 8: NRL are pushing forward, and Billy Slater doesn't think it's necessary, 182 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 8: believes that they should back the game that they've got, 183 00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:55,680 Speaker 8: believes it's at the best it's ever been in terms 184 00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:58,560 Speaker 8: of entertainment factors that of origin this year the NRAL 185 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:01,760 Speaker 8: finals and not really worry about what are three sixty 186 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 8: is doing. I kind of agree with you. 187 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 5: He's got a point. I think R three sixty is 188 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:09,640 Speaker 5: at best a threat to world rugby, not rugby league. 189 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:11,719 Speaker 8: No, but it's interesting that all the players from the 190 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 8: NRL that have been linked with these huge salaries are 191 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 8: by and large league players more so than union players. 192 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 5: Why do you think that is right? Because the I 193 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:23,240 Speaker 5: I was under the the theory is that it's because 194 00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 5: they can't get any world run any rugby union players. 195 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 5: But I thought it was simply because Saudi rugby can 196 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:31,240 Speaker 5: see where the where the dynamic players are and it's 197 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:31,840 Speaker 5: rugby league. 198 00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 8: Quite possibly, But is signing pain Haass going to start 199 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:39,000 Speaker 8: kickstart R three sixty and get it on the map worldwide. 200 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:42,360 Speaker 8: I'd argue that that rugby union players are more well 201 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 8: known worldwide than a lot of those league players. Yeah 202 00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 8: so what so what's the what's in it for them? 203 00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 8: Are they going to be able to sell more seconds 204 00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:50,959 Speaker 8: as a result of these league players going over? 205 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:53,840 Speaker 5: Yeah? So they haven't got the star powers you're arguing, 206 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:57,320 Speaker 5: but boy, they've got the leagues they do. I don't 207 00:09:57,360 --> 00:09:58,199 Speaker 5: mean in a sexy. 208 00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 8: Ways of running fast and all that, but to me 209 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 8: it's I think if you're the NRAL, you just kind 210 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:06,720 Speaker 8: of don't worry about it, do you? It's not going 211 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:07,520 Speaker 8: to blight the game. 212 00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:08,200 Speaker 5: I don't. 213 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:10,559 Speaker 8: I don't think there's a risk that any one of 214 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:11,839 Speaker 8: any relevance is going to go. 215 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:12,719 Speaker 5: Are they worried that? 216 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:13,480 Speaker 2: Are you sure? 217 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:16,600 Speaker 5: Because Arties this is the. 218 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 8: Back end of his career. Yeah, I'm talking players in 219 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:21,880 Speaker 8: their prime, like a pain Hearts, like a Reese Walsh. 220 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:23,199 Speaker 4: They're not going to go. 221 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 8: I would be stunned if they go. Okay, look, look 222 00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 8: a huge amount of money. They're being off a huge 223 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 8: amounts of money. But for what what are they playing? 224 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:35,360 Speaker 8: There's no intel the R three second you doesn't even 225 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:36,000 Speaker 8: have a website. 226 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 5: Okay. The hole in your argument is if it is 227 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:40,320 Speaker 5: just players at the tail end of their career, then 228 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 5: the NRL wouldn't be doing this, would they were the team? 229 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 8: That's right, That's what I mean. I'm not sure why 230 00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 8: they're so worried. 231 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:47,680 Speaker 5: Because are they? Are they hearing that it's other players? 232 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 8: Maybe they are because we haven't because I think they 233 00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 8: maybe players will break the contract like Sonny Bill did 234 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:52,640 Speaker 8: back in the y. 235 00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:56,920 Speaker 5: If you're listening to what's being whispered, right, it's hundreds 236 00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:58,839 Speaker 5: of players who have these offers in front of them. Yes, 237 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 5: so when we're talking about the anti uses and the 238 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:03,840 Speaker 5: so and so, we're like, we know about three right, Well, 239 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 5: maybe at best we know about a dozen. It's not 240 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:08,920 Speaker 5: touching the sides of who's been offered. So maybe the 241 00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:09,960 Speaker 5: threat is greater than we think. 242 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 8: And maybe if look, if they get a big fish, 243 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 8: then a few more fish start following. 244 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 5: Now, listen, I can't believe the comm Games is going 245 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:17,120 Speaker 5: to India's that's how. 246 00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:17,559 Speaker 8: We started to you. 247 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:18,439 Speaker 5: No, not at all. 248 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 8: We thought the comwayth Games are deady year ago. 249 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:22,400 Speaker 5: It's like sort of slightly happy about that as well. 250 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:25,959 Speaker 8: Glasgow comes on board and saves it for twenty twenty six. Yes, 251 00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 8: under a reduced I think it's ten day program. They've 252 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:30,760 Speaker 8: got rid of rugby seven's, they got rid of a 253 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 8: lot of the entertaining sports out of there, and I 254 00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:35,599 Speaker 8: met a bad twenty thirty lining up going to be 255 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:37,840 Speaker 8: rubber Stam next month. Now this is good news, Heather 256 00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 8: for New Zealand. But said their sights on twenty thirty four, 257 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:44,040 Speaker 8: about three years ago, I think it was. And then 258 00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:46,800 Speaker 8: in the interim the Coomwath Games basically died. So for 259 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:49,040 Speaker 8: New Zealand. The Coomwath Games are back alive again. 260 00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:51,559 Speaker 5: Yeah, when you say good news, good news, because it's 261 00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 5: going to be bloody expensive. 262 00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:55,360 Speaker 8: We'll host this thing, but no more good news at 263 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 8: the coomwav games are actually going to be still going 264 00:11:57,559 --> 00:12:00,360 Speaker 8: by that point, because what's the point in targeting twenty 265 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:01,480 Speaker 8: four if they weren't going at all? 266 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:04,280 Speaker 5: Well, I said, yeah, well absolutely, I mean I said, 267 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:07,720 Speaker 5: I'm in two minds. I'm not convinced by the how long. 268 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:08,800 Speaker 8: To the Bowls? If they were here? 269 00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:12,199 Speaker 5: Oh heart out, you can't look of anything better. I'm 270 00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 5: just not convinced by the economic argument for hosting them. 271 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:16,320 Speaker 5: But listen, the twenty thirty games. Are they the ones 272 00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:17,400 Speaker 5: that were supposed to be in Canada? 273 00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:17,840 Speaker 9: Yes? 274 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:19,439 Speaker 8: Okay, so we found a host for them. 275 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:25,120 Speaker 5: Oh yeah, Ali back whoo.

It's Heather Duplicy Ellen 280 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 1: Drive with one New Zealand hand of power of satellite 281 00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 1: mobile news talks. 282 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:43,520 Speaker 5: They'd be ah so the News Today regrab One obviously 283 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 5: as it's been put into liquidation. And this doesn't appear 284 00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:48,120 Speaker 5: to be good news for customers because it looks like 285 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:50,079 Speaker 5: it's going to be the customers who losing out here 286 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 5: because vouchers are not necessarily going to be honored. Now, 287 00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:56,839 Speaker 5: I feel like I need to say this because I 288 00:12:56,920 --> 00:13:00,199 Speaker 5: feel like there may be individual merchants who make hop 289 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 5: this unfairly. So let's say, for example, this is where 290 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 5: I think that you know, if you've got, I don't know, 291 00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:08,840 Speaker 5: a butcher's voucher, you bought a butcher's voucher from Grab One, 292 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:10,599 Speaker 5: you're gonna go to the butcher and say, can you 293 00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 5: honor this? The trouble for the butcher is they might 294 00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:15,560 Speaker 5: not have got the money from Grab one that you paid, 295 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:17,439 Speaker 5: So you paid Grab one for the voucher, but to 296 00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:21,000 Speaker 5: Grab one pay pay the butcher, in which case, why 297 00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:22,720 Speaker 5: should the butcher honor it? Because if the butcher then 298 00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:24,679 Speaker 5: honors it, then they're losing out anyway. We're gonna have 299 00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:26,839 Speaker 5: a chat about this later on after five o'clock with 300 00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 5: Dion Tilson, who is I think actually in one of 301 00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 5: these situations as to whether vouchers are on it or not. 302 00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:39,800 Speaker 5: Right now, it's full twenty five together Allen Erukappa Kingy. 303 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:43,840 Speaker 5: It drags on and on and on.

I'm really I pay the doctors more. 341 00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:28,080 Speaker 5: I just think the doctors should have used the opportunity 342 00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:31,480 Speaker 5: to actually get final arbitration instead of striking. I think 343 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:33,560 Speaker 5: that undermines their argument. News is next. 344 00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:39,040 Speaker 2: Cutting through the noise to get the facts. 345 00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:43,400 Speaker 1: It's Heather Duplicy Ellen Drive with One New Zealand coverage 346 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:45,320 Speaker 1: like no one else news talks. 347 00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:47,440 Speaker 2: They'd be sorry that yard. 348 00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:55,880 Speaker 5: Like Barry Sofa is going to be with us. In 349 00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:58,320 Speaker 5: ten minutes time, we're going to have to talk about 350 00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:01,560 Speaker 5: glory of the look. I'll tell you what, bloody grim. 351 00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:06,320 Speaker 5: What's happened is police and ot Autongotimiki formerly known as SIFs, 352 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:09,600 Speaker 5: have been secretly conducting a major investigation into Gloria Veil 353 00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:12,080 Speaker 5: because there have been reports that children there have been 354 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:16,320 Speaker 5: disciplining their babies by basically suffocating them right so basically 355 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:19,640 Speaker 5: closing the nose, covering the mouth if they cry in 356 00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:21,400 Speaker 5: a bit to kind of break their will and stop 357 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:24,400 Speaker 5: them from crying. But it's a baby, for God's sake, 358 00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:27,360 Speaker 5: so the baby keeps on crying. So eventually, basically from 359 00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:30,880 Speaker 5: the sounds of things losers consciousness, they have after this 360 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:35,360 Speaker 5: extensive police and ot investigation, they haven't charged anyone raises 361 00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:37,240 Speaker 5: a couple of questions there, but they have issued two 362 00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:41,920 Speaker 5: formal warnings to members of Gloria Veil. Now, Virginia Courage 363 00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:45,240 Speaker 5: is a lever of Gloriavale lever, but she reckons that 364 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:47,120 Speaker 5: while she was there some years ago, she did actually 365 00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 5: witness this. So she's going to be with us after 366 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:50,920 Speaker 5: five to talk us through it. Murriolds are standing by 367 00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 5: twenty four away from five. 368 00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:55,600 Speaker 2: It's the world wires on newstalks. They'd be drive. 369 00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:58,440 Speaker 5: So the remains of two more hostages, as I said earlier, 370 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:01,000 Speaker 5: have been returned to Israel ba by Hamas. That leaves 371 00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:04,920 Speaker 5: at least nineteen hostages maybe more whose remains haven't been returned, 372 00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:06,960 Speaker 5: and Hamas says it will need more time and specialized 373 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:10,560 Speaker 5: equipment to recover them. Israeli Prime Minister BINYAMINETNYA, who says 374 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:12,320 Speaker 5: Hamas need to disarm in order for the rest of 375 00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:13,600 Speaker 5: the peace process to move forward. 376 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:16,560 Speaker 12: First, Hamas has to give up a times. We agree 377 00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:18,320 Speaker 12: that that's part of the plan, and we want We 378 00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:21,040 Speaker 12: also agreed, Okay, let's get the first part done and 379 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:24,840 Speaker 12: now let's give a chance to do the second part peacefully, 380 00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:25,680 Speaker 12: which is my hope. 381 00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:28,640 Speaker 5: Donald Trump says that India has promised to stop buying 382 00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:31,200 Speaker 5: Russian oil. He says he's had an assurance from Indian 383 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:32,640 Speaker 5: Prime minister. Then they're in remote. 384 00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:34,040 Speaker 2: I want to see it stop. 385 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:36,760 Speaker 13: So I was not happy that India was buying oil, 386 00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:39,480 Speaker 13: and he assured me today that they will not be 387 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:40,679 Speaker 13: buying oil from Russia. 388 00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:42,160 Speaker 2: That's a big stop. 389 00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:49,720 Speaker 5: And finally, what's a most restern California, Aya has been 390 00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 5: pulled over by police for using a hand drawn number plate. 391 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:54,680 Speaker 5: So the driver told the cops they lost the original 392 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:57,360 Speaker 5: license plate, so they just drew themselves a new one. 393 00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:00,200 Speaker 5: Driver doesn't appear to have been fined. Cops have said 394 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:02,320 Speaker 5: that if anyone loses their number plate, they should get 395 00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:05,440 Speaker 5: a replacement through official channels instead of breaking out the art. 396 00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:10,000 Speaker 1: Supplies international correspondence with ends and eye insurance, peace of 397 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:11,439 Speaker 1: mind for New Zealand business. 398 00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:14,040 Speaker 5: Murray Old's Ossie corresponds with us. 399 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:16,679 Speaker 4: Now heymus hi there here, they're going to afternoon. 400 00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:18,400 Speaker 5: Okay, So what's going on with employment? 401 00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:21,200 Speaker 4: Well it's not a pretty picture. 402 00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:24,200 Speaker 14: Jobless rate at the highest level now in four years, 403 00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:27,119 Speaker 14: jumped up to four and a half percent in September, 404 00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:29,359 Speaker 14: a surprising result. 405 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:32,120 Speaker 4: All the economists who were asked about. 406 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:34,880 Speaker 14: Their expectations, they said, well, it's going to stay around 407 00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:37,240 Speaker 14: four point three percent, which is what it was in August. 408 00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:41,040 Speaker 14: So more than one thousand people a day lost their 409 00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:45,560 Speaker 14: jobs in September. A modest job growth of fifteen thousand 410 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:47,639 Speaker 14: are spurred on by a rise of course, in the 411 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:51,280 Speaker 14: participation rate, which measures the number of people out there 412 00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:55,280 Speaker 14: in the across the country actively looking for work. So 413 00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:57,879 Speaker 14: the number ticked up four and a half percent. This 414 00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:00,600 Speaker 14: of course puts pressure on the Reserve Bank to think 415 00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:03,560 Speaker 14: about cutting interest rates. The cash rate currently have a 416 00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:06,919 Speaker 14: three point six percent and the next Reserve Bank meeting 417 00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:09,920 Speaker 14: that's due on Melbourne Cup Day on Tuesday, the fourth 418 00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:10,680 Speaker 14: of November. 419 00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:14,359 Speaker 5: Now, okay, so this court case about the synagogues and 420 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 5: the pro Palestine activists explain this. 421 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:18,440 Speaker 4: Okay. 422 00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:21,479 Speaker 14: Back in February this year, there was a huge spike 423 00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:29,160 Speaker 14: in anti Semitic incidents across Sydney. It's almost all confined 424 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:32,399 Speaker 14: to Sydney. So you had spray painting on synagogue walls, 425 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:35,160 Speaker 14: you know, hate the Jews, pro Palestine, from the rivet 426 00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:37,840 Speaker 14: to the sea, all that sort of standard stuff that 427 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:38,880 Speaker 14: is obscene. 428 00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:39,720 Speaker 4: It's just dreadful. 429 00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:44,199 Speaker 14: So the state government brought in laws that were cloaked 430 00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:47,520 Speaker 14: in this kind of anti hate speech was the phrase 431 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:49,680 Speaker 14: that the government was using at the time. It was 432 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:53,080 Speaker 14: one of several changes designed to crack down on hate speech. 433 00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:57,160 Speaker 14: But lawyers for the Palestine Action Group challenge the validity 434 00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:00,960 Speaker 14: of these laws. They said it actually pushed police powers 435 00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:05,040 Speaker 14: beyond legitimate bounds. Police were empowered to order protests to 436 00:20:05,119 --> 00:20:07,679 Speaker 14: move on if they were near a place of worship, 437 00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:10,080 Speaker 14: being a synagogue, be the mosque, be at a church, 438 00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:13,520 Speaker 14: even if there was no basis to believe worshipers were 439 00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:16,960 Speaker 14: obstructed or frightened or fearful or you know, anything along 440 00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 14: those lives. It was a step too far for the 441 00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:23,720 Speaker 14: government well and the police, and the Supreme Court today 442 00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:26,960 Speaker 14: has ruled yes, in fact, it was an overreach. It's 443 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:29,439 Speaker 14: a step too far in terms of allowing protests against 444 00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:33,479 Speaker 14: governments or political matters. It's been embarrassing for the New 445 00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:35,680 Speaker 14: South Wales government. It's been very hot and strong on this, 446 00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 14: as you might expect governments here, the governments everywhere don't 447 00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 14: want to see this sort of stuff in our society, 448 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:44,440 Speaker 14: you know, hateful speech, spray paid on the walls of 449 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:47,680 Speaker 14: the places of worship, it's dreadful. The power to move 450 00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:49,840 Speaker 14: on has been ruled invalid, but it will still be 451 00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:53,920 Speaker 14: a crime to impede people, to harass people, to intimidate 452 00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 14: them if they're trying to go in and out of 453 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 14: a synagogue or a moscow, a church. 454 00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:00,680 Speaker 5: So the police, for you, though why do these activists 455 00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:02,159 Speaker 5: have to be anywhere near synagogues? 456 00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:05,440 Speaker 4: Well, I suppose they think it gets them an extra headline. 457 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:07,280 Speaker 4: I mean, they're all headline chases, aren't they. 458 00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:10,120 Speaker 14: I mean, anything we do here by way of protest 459 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 14: doesn't resonate, but doesn't ripple far beyond Sydney. I mean, 460 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:16,439 Speaker 14: to be honest, unless you get on the harbor bridges 461 00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:18,840 Speaker 14: they did, unless you get down on the Opera House. 462 00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 4: I mean, those images go around the world. But your 463 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:24,000 Speaker 4: point's very valid. 464 00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:26,560 Speaker 5: I mean, I mean it strikes me that we're conflating 465 00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:29,359 Speaker 5: a state with its religion and they're not necessarily the 466 00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:30,439 Speaker 5: same vigion. Do you know what I mean? 467 00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:31,720 Speaker 4: One hundred percent? 468 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:34,560 Speaker 14: I mean, just stay away from bloody churches. I mean 469 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:36,399 Speaker 14: it's a bit sort of I don't know, a bit 470 00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:40,000 Speaker 14: the Spanish inquisitions. I mean, there's no need to go 471 00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 14: near a synagogue or a mosco or a church from. 472 00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:45,720 Speaker 5: Leave those people alone, all right. So Tidmus is retiring. 473 00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:48,760 Speaker 4: She is, indeed, and look it's a big loss for 474 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:49,639 Speaker 4: Australian swimming. 475 00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:52,679 Speaker 14: She's only twenty five years old, but she's been at 476 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:55,960 Speaker 14: the pool since she was about six, so it's a hell. 477 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:57,520 Speaker 4: Of a career from this young woman. 478 00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:00,200 Speaker 14: She's one of the greatest distance swimmers ever, not just 479 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 14: in Australia but for all time. Eight Olympic medals at 480 00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:08,480 Speaker 14: the Games in Paris and in Tokyo, four of those gold, 481 00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:14,400 Speaker 14: nine World championship titles, including world championship medals, including four 482 00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:18,280 Speaker 14: titles at world level. And look, she is a bit 483 00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:20,080 Speaker 14: of a loss, has no doubt about that. She was 484 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:24,119 Speaker 14: an absolute weapon. She earned arian Tiitmas her nickname was 485 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:27,320 Speaker 14: the terminator and you know the likes of Katie Ladecki. 486 00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:29,480 Speaker 4: She mowed her down and Lidecki. 487 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:30,879 Speaker 14: Is one of the greatest, one of the goats of 488 00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 14: swimming and Tipmas had her measure twice at Olympic level. 489 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:37,680 Speaker 14: So a very big loss to Australian swimming. But look, 490 00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:42,840 Speaker 14: she's a bright, very attractive in terms of public personality. 491 00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:45,200 Speaker 4: She's got a big career in the media somewhere, I'm 492 00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:45,560 Speaker 4: sure of it. 493 00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:48,640 Speaker 5: Brilliant stuff. Thank you very much, Mauz, appreciate it. Mariol's 494 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 5: Australia correspondent eighteen away from. 495 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:51,960 Speaker 2: Five Heather due for c Ellen. 496 00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:53,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, the Rugby three sixty is going to change some 497 00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:55,600 Speaker 5: of the rules of rugby and it will become a 498 00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 5: hybrid of league, and that's why that after the league 499 00:22:57,560 --> 00:23:00,240 Speaker 5: plays geez. I hope you're right. I hope you'll right, 500 00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:02,359 Speaker 5: because it strikes me that the problem, this is what 501 00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:04,360 Speaker 5: I've been saying for age is the problem with rugby 502 00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:08,040 Speaker 5: union is the rules, isn't it. It's just so dull. 503 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:10,520 Speaker 5: It has become a defensive game. It's boring to watch. 504 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:12,399 Speaker 5: That's why everybody switching over to league and loving it. 505 00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:14,360 Speaker 5: So if they can do a little hybrid, it might 506 00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:16,560 Speaker 5: actually be the very thing that world rugby needs to 507 00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:19,280 Speaker 5: see in action in order to change its own rules. Anyway, 508 00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:21,119 Speaker 5: I've got an update for you on Treva Mallard. Do 509 00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:23,840 Speaker 5: you remember how Winston called Trevor Mallard back from Ireland 510 00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:26,520 Speaker 5: or was it August August something like that, and he's like, 511 00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:28,800 Speaker 5: Trevor Mallard's coming back early, and everybody looked at it 512 00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:31,359 Speaker 5: and went, well is he though, because he's supposed to 513 00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:33,560 Speaker 5: come back in January and you're only bringing him back 514 00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:36,040 Speaker 5: in November. So I didn't feel that early. Well, it 515 00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 5: turns out there's a reason for that, Mallard. Winston did 516 00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:42,960 Speaker 5: actually want Mallard back pretty much immediately when they wrote 517 00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:45,520 Speaker 5: to him in augustish or whatever. They were like, you 518 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:49,480 Speaker 5: need to come immediately. The problem was Mallard's dog. So 519 00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:51,679 Speaker 5: the rules of New Zealand say that if you are 520 00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:53,639 Speaker 5: going to bring your dog back to New Zealand or 521 00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 5: a dog to New Zealand, it has to have a 522 00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:59,080 Speaker 5: set of vaccinations and those vaccinations have to have according 523 00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 5: to Mallard back and he was like, can't come back immediately. 524 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:04,520 Speaker 5: Dog needs to be jabbed, needs to be six months, 525 00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:06,960 Speaker 5: and he'd had the jab the jabs had already been done, 526 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:09,560 Speaker 5: but only three weeks earlier, so you know he wasn't 527 00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:11,760 Speaker 5: going to be able to come back early anyway, They 528 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:13,360 Speaker 5: wrote back to him, these are the poor m fat 529 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:15,560 Speaker 5: people who have to relay the bad news. Relayed the 530 00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 5: bad news. Winston wasn't changing his mind and it wasn't 531 00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 5: too worried about the quote pup and he needed to 532 00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 5: come back immediately. And then he said, I might have 533 00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:24,639 Speaker 5: a little bit. I might be able to sort this 534 00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:26,160 Speaker 5: out with the dog. So I don't know, maybe the dog, 535 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:29,959 Speaker 5: maybe maybe the vaccination rules weren't six months, but they 536 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:32,159 Speaker 5: were some months, which is why he only ended up 537 00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:34,399 Speaker 5: coming well, he's only ending up coming back by the 538 00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 5: looks of things. Next month sixteen away from. 539 00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:39,879 Speaker 1: Five Politics was centric credit, check your customers and get 540 00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:40,679 Speaker 1: payments certay. 541 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:43,120 Speaker 5: Ben has had a bit of trouble with the grab 542 00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:44,879 Speaker 5: one and he's just solved it.

So he died yesterday amazingly surrounded by 554 00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:18,240 Speaker 13: his nine kids, his wife Joan, and his eighteen grandchildren, 555 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:22,800 Speaker 13: so you know, there was rather a large crowd exactly. 556 00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:27,200 Speaker 13: And look, I met Jim Bolder in the seventies when 557 00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:30,359 Speaker 13: I was the industrial roundsman for TV and Z and 558 00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:33,760 Speaker 13: he was the labor Minister for Rob Muldoon, and I 559 00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:37,440 Speaker 13: remember being quite astounded that he when I was a 560 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:40,200 Speaker 13: young man. Of course, invited up for a drink in 561 00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:42,399 Speaker 13: the Labor Minister's office, and we did that on a 562 00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:46,159 Speaker 13: number of occasions, as you mentioned earlier. But it just 563 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:50,880 Speaker 13: goes to show the power of television in the politician's 564 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:55,080 Speaker 13: mind that they immediately adopt a television journalist, as he 565 00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:58,440 Speaker 13: did me to a fairly large extent. He used to 566 00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:01,360 Speaker 13: mimic Jim Knox, who was the president of the FIO 567 00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:04,120 Speaker 13: WEL in those days, and then expect to sit down 568 00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:06,479 Speaker 13: the next day and have a meaningful discussion with him, 569 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:09,040 Speaker 13: and Jim was none too happy. This is Jim Knox 570 00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:12,760 Speaker 13: was none too happy about that. One of the more 571 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:17,280 Speaker 13: interesting stories here there is him meeting Nelson Mandala in 572 00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 13: Hurrahra in nineteen ninety one. There was a Commonwealth heads 573 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:24,280 Speaker 13: of government meeting there and I was with Bolger and 574 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:28,240 Speaker 13: he was We were mixing with the leaders as a 575 00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:33,440 Speaker 13: cocktail function and making an exit almost Bolgier was a 576 00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:36,520 Speaker 13: bit tired of the small talk and a man, an 577 00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:39,560 Speaker 13: African man, came through the exit door and said to me, 578 00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:42,720 Speaker 13: are you with a prime minister? And I said, well, 579 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 13: that's our prime minister there, and he said, can you 580 00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:48,159 Speaker 13: introduce this man who's coming through the door now to 581 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:52,280 Speaker 13: him was Nelson Mandela, and Bolger was very quick. The 582 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:56,200 Speaker 13: very next morning he booked almost immediately for breakfast the 583 00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:59,119 Speaker 13: next morning. And my abiding memory of that was that 584 00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:02,080 Speaker 13: I was shoved out of the way at this cocktail 585 00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:05,880 Speaker 13: function Philly, forcibly by none other than Bob Hawk, who 586 00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:09,480 Speaker 13: kind of sway through the crowd because he wanted to 587 00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 13: be in on the Mandela thing. But Bolger got a 588 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:13,080 Speaker 13: bit of. 589 00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:13,680 Speaker 5: A coup there. 590 00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:18,920 Speaker 13: And then several years later went to Mandala's inauguration in 591 00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:21,640 Speaker 13: nineteen ninety four, and I was with him again. There 592 00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:26,320 Speaker 13: he got a souvenir bottle of wine of Nineberg Cabinet Savignon, 593 00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:29,000 Speaker 13: and it was a large one and later and a 594 00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:32,080 Speaker 13: half and I happened to be at the lunch and 595 00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:33,200 Speaker 13: said to Bolgia, where'd. 596 00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:33,520 Speaker 4: You get that from? 597 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:36,320 Speaker 13: He said, oh, that waiter over there gave me it 598 00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:40,199 Speaker 13: as a souvenir. So I thought, bucket this. I'm going 599 00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:41,600 Speaker 13: to go over and talk to the waiter as well. 600 00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:43,280 Speaker 4: Went over. He gave me one. 601 00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:46,760 Speaker 13: Well, Bolger drank his. I think, Philly. Soon after getting 602 00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:49,120 Speaker 13: back to the country, I've still got mine here. 603 00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:52,960 Speaker 5: But you realize, you realize it's going to be soury, but. 604 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:55,280 Speaker 13: It's got the presidential seal on the bottle. 605 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:55,760 Speaker 2: He would have. 606 00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:01,679 Speaker 5: No, No, I think it's a it's now a family 607 00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 5: loom appreciated by no one. Carry on, carryll that's true. 608 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:13,359 Speaker 13: But look, Parliament's adjourned for the week now because they 609 00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:16,879 Speaker 13: sat this afternoon in honor of Jim Bolger. A number 610 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:20,639 Speaker 13: paid tribute to him. Here's Labour's Chris Hopkins, followed by 611 00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:21,479 Speaker 13: Winston Peters. 612 00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:26,280 Speaker 16: Jim Bolger's life is full of contradictions. Has government sold 613 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 16: the Bank of New Zealand and then he was the 614 00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:32,119 Speaker 16: inaugural chair of the new government owned Kiwibank. 615 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:33,800 Speaker 4: Has Government ushered. 616 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:36,840 Speaker 16: In the Employment Contracts Act, and then subsequently he chaired 617 00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:39,320 Speaker 16: a working group that led to the establishment of fair 618 00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:42,600 Speaker 16: pay agreements. His government did more to weekend unions than 619 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:45,000 Speaker 16: just about any other. But then in his later years 620 00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:48,240 Speaker 16: he lamented how small unions had become in the effect 621 00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:51,040 Speaker 16: that that it had for working people. He sacked Winston 622 00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:54,680 Speaker 16: Peters from his cabinet and then formed New Zealand's first 623 00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:58,400 Speaker 16: MMP coalition with Winston Peters as his deputy Prime minister. 624 00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:02,880 Speaker 16: A government that it's transpired to be remarkably stable, much 625 00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:06,400 Speaker 16: so the frustration of the then Labor Party opposition. I 626 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:09,959 Speaker 16: do want to acknowledge Winston Peters today the only remaining 627 00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:13,320 Speaker 16: member of the House who served in government with Jim 628 00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:16,320 Speaker 16: Bolger during the time that he was Prime Minister we. 629 00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:21,080 Speaker 17: Formed the first MMP government. He put difference aside, shook 630 00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:25,040 Speaker 17: hands on that agreement, and more importantly, he kept his word. 631 00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:28,200 Speaker 17: Today we can and must acknowledge that Jim Bolder contributed 632 00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:31,720 Speaker 17: to a time of enormous difficulty economically and changed to 633 00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:35,000 Speaker 17: New Zealand. But a far bet importance than this, we 634 00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:40,320 Speaker 17: acknowledged the passing of a husband, father, and grandfather. Jim, 635 00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:41,400 Speaker 17: May God bless you. 636 00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:45,080 Speaker 13: So Winston was quite emotional I think about it all. 637 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:49,280 Speaker 13: But Chris Hopkins wasn't quite right. It wasn't he wasn't. 638 00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:52,000 Speaker 13: The only person in the House today that had served 639 00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:56,360 Speaker 13: in a government with Jim Bolger's leader was Jerry Brownlee 640 00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:59,960 Speaker 13: was also came into Parliament in the first MMP elect 641 00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:05,280 Speaker 13: in nineteen ninety six, and he remembers a party in 642 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:08,800 Speaker 13: the Speaker's Lounge after winning that election when Doug Kidd 643 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:11,320 Speaker 13: was in the chair which he occupies today, which. 644 00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:17,880 Speaker 18: Loved gatherings of people. He enjoyed, as any true Irishman would, 645 00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:21,360 Speaker 18: the opportunity to be with other people. And I recall 646 00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:25,200 Speaker 18: it shortly after the formation of the nineteen ninety six government, 647 00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:30,840 Speaker 18: Doug Kidd invited a number of senior ministers and members 648 00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:36,400 Speaker 18: to the Speaker's Lounge for ongoing discussions, which you can 649 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:41,640 Speaker 18: alleage involved a lot of you know, well, basically they 650 00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:45,880 Speaker 18: loved their whiskey. And Doug pointed at me and said, 651 00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:47,800 Speaker 18: you come too, So I did. But I found out 652 00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:51,080 Speaker 18: I was any there to be the waiter, and I 653 00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:53,640 Speaker 18: was quickly dispatched by Jimbolgia to go and find he 654 00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:56,480 Speaker 18: in Revel, who played a guitar. He said, get Revel, 655 00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:58,760 Speaker 18: get his guitar, get him back here. We're going to 656 00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:02,440 Speaker 18: sing some songs. He loves singing. But then he dragged 657 00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:06,160 Speaker 18: everybody out onto the balcony just outside the Speaker's loue, 658 00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 18: drinks in hand, some smoke ascending above their heads, and 659 00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:15,120 Speaker 18: then led the group in a resounding rendition of Danny Boy. 660 00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 18: And you just think thisself could have prime in us 661 00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:21,240 Speaker 18: to do that. Today, the reality is that he was 662 00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:24,600 Speaker 18: able to beat himself with those who he worked with, 663 00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:27,720 Speaker 18: and too often I think we have to hide that 664 00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:31,280 Speaker 18: away because of the malicious nature of social media these days. 665 00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:34,719 Speaker 5: Barry, thank you very much, Barry So for senior political correspondent. 666 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:40,280 Speaker 1: The headlines and the hard questions.

We he 711 00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:59,880 Speaker 17: put differences aside, shook hands on that agreement, and more importantly, 712 00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:01,520 Speaker 17: he kept his word. 713 00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:04,280 Speaker 5: And Chris Luxon said that even recently he'd been getting 714 00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:05,640 Speaker 5: the odd call from Jim, but. 715 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:08,600 Speaker 18: Since becoming Prime Minister I received a few quiet phone 716 00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:09,200 Speaker 18: calls from him. 717 00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:11,840 Speaker 9: They were short, sincere and thoughtful. 718 00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:16,720 Speaker 18: He offered encouragement, perspective and advice, advice that I took seriously. 719 00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:17,279 Speaker 4: Now. 720 00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:20,360 Speaker 5: Ruth Richardson was Jim Bolger's first Finance minister. 721 00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:23,279 Speaker 23: Hi, Ruth, greetings, Heather. 722 00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:25,520 Speaker 5: You have much of a relationship with Jim Bolder in 723 00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:26,240 Speaker 5: recent days. 724 00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:32,880 Speaker 23: I last saw him at the Press Gallery anniversary and he, 725 00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:37,920 Speaker 23: as always, was magnanimous but dismissive because he had come 726 00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:40,800 Speaker 23: to take a very different view of public policy to mine. 727 00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:46,839 Speaker 23: Our most crossing of swords in his post politics years 728 00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:50,320 Speaker 23: were over Brexit, where I predicted that Brexit would be 729 00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:54,680 Speaker 23: voted in by the British public and he completely poopooed me, 730 00:34:55,239 --> 00:34:58,560 Speaker 23: and I must say a bit of glee in doing. 731 00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:00,960 Speaker 5: I told you so, how do you feel about what 732 00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:02,800 Speaker 5: happened in the last well, I want to say the 733 00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:04,960 Speaker 5: last few years, but it really is a very long time. 734 00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:08,640 Speaker 5: But recently he had come to criticize his own government 735 00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:11,120 Speaker 5: and then what he calls the neoliberal policies. How did 736 00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:11,759 Speaker 5: you feel about that? 737 00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:13,279 Speaker 2: Well? 738 00:35:13,560 --> 00:35:16,040 Speaker 23: I felt of it, affronted, and I think he sold 739 00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:19,800 Speaker 23: himself short. I mean, he showed policy bravery when he 740 00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:24,960 Speaker 23: had to. He gave the reformers licenses to you know, 741 00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:30,200 Speaker 23: completely and fundamentally change for school policy, labor market policy. 742 00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:33,960 Speaker 23: He was not an accessory after the fact, he was 743 00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:38,120 Speaker 23: part of that government. And to me, he really did 744 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:44,160 Speaker 23: put a slur on his own reputation by recanting, because 745 00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:46,600 Speaker 23: he recanted on no good evidence at all. If you 746 00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:49,359 Speaker 23: look at the labor market, it's been highly successful. If 747 00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:52,560 Speaker 23: you have a look at the fiscal responsibility rules, they've 748 00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:56,040 Speaker 23: generally been highly successful. So why he would want from 749 00:35:56,080 --> 00:35:59,879 Speaker 23: a great height to effectively do the proverbial on set 750 00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:01,000 Speaker 23: access I do not know. 751 00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:05,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, what do you think happened there? Did he did 752 00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:08,440 Speaker 5: he just reflect on what had happened in the nineties 753 00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:12,560 Speaker 5: and regretted or actually, was he always in the wrong party? 754 00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:16,360 Speaker 23: I don't think he was in the wrong party. But 755 00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:19,960 Speaker 23: remember the National Party as a party of management. It's 756 00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:23,320 Speaker 23: a party that is transactional. The government of which I 757 00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:27,239 Speaker 23: was a member and which he was a willing participant 758 00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:30,919 Speaker 23: in those first three years, was a government of transformation. 759 00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:34,479 Speaker 23: So to an extent, that's a deviation from the norm 760 00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:37,200 Speaker 23: of the National Party, and he just reverted to type. 761 00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:42,840 Speaker 23: He learned his political craft at the knees of Moldowon 762 00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:46,279 Speaker 23: He and Birch and Crewe slope filled rooms. They were 763 00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:48,839 Speaker 23: used to doing the deals. This was a new era 764 00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:52,280 Speaker 23: and it wasn't that he was dragged into it kicking 765 00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:57,400 Speaker 23: and screaming. His hand was forced by dreadful economic circumstances 766 00:36:57,440 --> 00:37:01,520 Speaker 23: that we faced, a real baptism of farm We did 767 00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:06,760 Speaker 23: what was right and the results you seven percent growth, 768 00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:11,799 Speaker 23: The books are balanced. Any minister of financial would gether 769 00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:15,920 Speaker 23: their iteth for that sort of result today from those policies, 770 00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:16,719 Speaker 23: what do. 771 00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:19,360 Speaker 5: You think his legacy will be? Because he's kind of 772 00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:22,319 Speaker 5: divorced himself from that right by Es seems to kind 773 00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:24,239 Speaker 5: of divorcing himself from you on that. Do you think 774 00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:27,680 Speaker 5: his legacy is going to be what happened with the settlements? 775 00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:34,720 Speaker 23: His legacy should be fiscal responsibility. You know, he stood 776 00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:37,040 Speaker 23: up when he had to, which is much more than 777 00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:40,399 Speaker 23: subsequent governments had dealings, say with the age of superannuation, 778 00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:45,280 Speaker 23: where they've just basically piked. He didn't pike. He didn't flinch. 779 00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:50,480 Speaker 23: On treaty settlements. He will be remembered as the initiator 780 00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:54,279 Speaker 23: of that, and in fact it started in nineteen ninety 781 00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:58,840 Speaker 23: two with the Sea Lord's settlement. Was the first showing 782 00:37:58,920 --> 00:38:03,640 Speaker 23: of hand that we were prepared to seek some deal 783 00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:07,800 Speaker 23: with grievances and give some financial redress. I think the 784 00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:10,520 Speaker 23: other apart from MMP, which I think is a blot 785 00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:14,440 Speaker 23: on the electoral landscape and of stopping us from making 786 00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:18,719 Speaker 23: high quality, good decisions. Now, his other legacy is a 787 00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:21,320 Speaker 23: physical one, and that is to Papa. You know, we 788 00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:24,239 Speaker 23: had no business funding to paper. When we did, we 789 00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:27,440 Speaker 23: were in dire straits. Jim had agreed in the Cabinet 790 00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:30,480 Speaker 23: Committee that we wouldn't go ahead right project, wrong time, 791 00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:33,239 Speaker 23: and I think it was Joan that changed his mind 792 00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:36,399 Speaker 23: over the weekend it came to cabinet on Monday morning 793 00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:38,279 Speaker 23: and said we're going to do it, and you know 794 00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:41,200 Speaker 23: I was left you a bit gobs back, but we 795 00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:41,520 Speaker 23: did it. 796 00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:43,600 Speaker 5: Ruth, thank you very much, appreciate it. 797 00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:43,680 Speaker 7: On. 798 00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:47,640 Speaker 5: Ruth Richardson, former Finance ministand to Jim bolgerver Do for 799 00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:50,640 Speaker 5: celan So Police and Autonga Timiniki.

Is it still happening? 839 00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:10,040 Speaker 27: Well? 840 00:41:10,160 --> 00:41:20,640 Speaker 24: Interestingly, interestingly enough, twenty five Glory while undertook some parenting 841 00:41:20,840 --> 00:41:26,960 Speaker 24: courses and that was to actually help around child's behavior 842 00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:31,840 Speaker 24: and alternative methods of wearing our kids and learning some 843 00:41:31,960 --> 00:41:35,839 Speaker 24: different practices because most of Glorivald's child wearing practices were 844 00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:41,920 Speaker 24: quite extreme. But when we left my husband and nine 845 00:41:41,960 --> 00:41:47,320 Speaker 24: and our teen children in twenty twenty nineteen, this was 846 00:41:47,440 --> 00:41:51,319 Speaker 24: never mentioned about the practice of covering their nose of mouth. 847 00:41:52,719 --> 00:41:54,799 Speaker 24: It was never brought up. There is something we were going. 848 00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:55,399 Speaker 26: To stop doing. 849 00:41:56,360 --> 00:41:58,239 Speaker 5: Oh, I see, okay, So it was still happening in 850 00:41:58,280 --> 00:41:58,920 Speaker 5: twenty nineteen. 851 00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:01,600 Speaker 7: Do you think I would say so okay? 852 00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:06,280 Speaker 24: Now there's no public meantia of that not being okay? 853 00:42:07,280 --> 00:42:08,400 Speaker 24: Why would people stop it? 854 00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:11,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, Virginia, listen, thank you very much. We'll have to 855 00:42:11,120 --> 00:42:13,040 Speaker 5: leave it there. I do appreciate your time. Virginia, courage, 856 00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:15,080 Speaker 5: glory of our lever Right, we'll deal with the grab 857 00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:16,480 Speaker 5: one situation. Next five to. 858 00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:17,919 Speaker 2: Heather do Allen. 859 00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:22,359 Speaker 5: Big news for both business and nature lovers.

Now thanks 866 00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:45,719 Speaker 5: to one New Zealand's cutting edge satellite to sell tech, 867 00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:48,040 Speaker 5: what it means is that the dock rangers will soon 868 00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:50,320 Speaker 5: have better connectivity and of course that means they'll be 869 00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:54,120 Speaker 5: able to do safer fieldwork, have faster data collection, smarter decisions, 870 00:42:54,440 --> 00:42:56,920 Speaker 5: and some of New Zealand's most remote places. For example, 871 00:42:56,960 --> 00:42:59,840 Speaker 5: One New Zealand satellite text is already proving invaluable in 872 00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:03,000 Speaker 5: past where the dock rangers protect the kiwi that helps 873 00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:05,360 Speaker 5: them keep in touch with base receive where their updates 874 00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:07,520 Speaker 5: ask for help if they need it. As One New 875 00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:11,080 Speaker 5: Zealand CEO Jason Powis says, this is about using technology 876 00:43:11,160 --> 00:43:14,360 Speaker 5: to help preserve our natural heritage. A powerful combo of 877 00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:18,880 Speaker 5: business smarts and environmental care. Better connectivity, better conservation, a 878 00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:20,120 Speaker 5: win win for New Zealand. 879 00:43:20,600 --> 00:43:23,000 Speaker 2: Heather d For ce Ellen, if you haven't heard. 880 00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:25,480 Speaker 5: The latest with the fairies that we're brought from are 881 00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:27,480 Speaker 5: buying from China, you're gonna want to hear this, so 882 00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:30,799 Speaker 5: stand by. It's twenty past five online deal website, though 883 00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:32,839 Speaker 5: grab one has gone into liquidation today. 884 00:43:32,880 --> 00:43:33,160 Speaker 26: As you know. 885 00:43:33,400 --> 00:43:35,239 Speaker 5: Trouble is, this is not good news. For people who've 886 00:43:35,239 --> 00:43:39,120 Speaker 5: bought vouchers, they will not be refunded, according to the liquidators, 887 00:43:39,120 --> 00:43:41,040 Speaker 5: and that means it's up to businesses to decide whether 888 00:43:41,080 --> 00:43:43,560 Speaker 5: they're going to honor the vouchers or not. Deon Tilson 889 00:43:43,640 --> 00:43:46,600 Speaker 5: is the general manager for her Poddokai Springs, and he's 890 00:43:46,640 --> 00:43:49,680 Speaker 5: with us now. Hey, Dion, Hey, hell you very well, 891 00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:51,520 Speaker 5: thank you. Are you guys honoring the vouchers? 892 00:43:52,360 --> 00:43:54,520 Speaker 26: We are yet yet? No, We've made a conscious decision 893 00:43:54,560 --> 00:43:57,799 Speaker 26: in good face to honor whatever unredeemed vouchers they are 894 00:43:57,960 --> 00:44:00,839 Speaker 26: out there in the market. Unfortunately we know exactly how 895 00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:03,359 Speaker 26: many that is because the merchant system has been shut 896 00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:07,000 Speaker 26: down to them. To other businesses, we expect there's probably 897 00:44:07,120 --> 00:44:09,640 Speaker 26: up to five hundred still. You know, family and adult 898 00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:10,560 Speaker 26: vouchers still out there. 899 00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:12,000 Speaker 5: Have you been paid for them? 900 00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:15,880 Speaker 26: We haven't been paid for a segment of the school 901 00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:20,000 Speaker 26: holiday vouchers, so we're estimating we've probably lost twenty thousand 902 00:44:20,080 --> 00:44:23,560 Speaker 26: dollars and income to date, and potentially another ten to 903 00:44:23,640 --> 00:44:26,719 Speaker 26: twenty thousand and unredeemed vouchers that we will redeem for 904 00:44:26,920 --> 00:44:29,960 Speaker 26: customers as long as they can provide some sort of 905 00:44:30,920 --> 00:44:33,719 Speaker 26: an email or proof bank statement of the like that 906 00:44:33,800 --> 00:44:35,279 Speaker 26: they did by a voucher in the first place. 907 00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:37,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, this is the trouble, right because the 908 00:44:37,480 --> 00:44:40,239 Speaker 5: website's down. They can't necessarily print it out, can they. 909 00:44:40,960 --> 00:44:43,960 Speaker 26: That's it. So we'll be working with those customers, you know, 910 00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:46,160 Speaker 26: well always recommend maybe they flick as an email instead 911 00:44:46,160 --> 00:44:48,319 Speaker 26: of just turning up at the counter, so we can 912 00:44:48,440 --> 00:44:51,640 Speaker 26: arrange it. We do have, you know, some databases and 913 00:44:51,640 --> 00:44:54,400 Speaker 26: the most recent databases we downloaded, so we do have 914 00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:58,120 Speaker 26: some information, but some of the latest purchases we don't 915 00:44:58,160 --> 00:44:59,719 Speaker 26: have on file. So it is going to be a 916 00:44:59,760 --> 00:45:01,680 Speaker 26: bit of case by case basis. But you know, we 917 00:45:01,719 --> 00:45:03,480 Speaker 26: will do our best to honor and make sure that 918 00:45:03,560 --> 00:45:05,400 Speaker 26: those customers do get the service states. 919 00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:06,800 Speaker 2: They purchase through grad deon. 920 00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:09,840 Speaker 5: So you're just doing this for goodwill, like you. 921 00:45:09,840 --> 00:45:13,360 Speaker 26: Don't have to do this, say well, no, that that's ourbue. 922 00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:15,200 Speaker 26: No said now, And we've seen a lot of businesses. 923 00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:17,320 Speaker 26: I've spring to a lot of partners businesses, you know, 924 00:45:17,440 --> 00:45:20,640 Speaker 26: restaurants and so forth, hotels, they may not be in 925 00:45:20,680 --> 00:45:22,000 Speaker 26: a position to be able to offer it. You know, 926 00:45:22,200 --> 00:45:26,440 Speaker 26: we're a hopful complex. A lot of those voucher users 927 00:45:26,520 --> 00:45:29,319 Speaker 26: are repeat visitors. So you know, they's a good faith 928 00:45:30,200 --> 00:45:32,800 Speaker 26: aspect to it, and you know we're leading up to Christmas. 929 00:45:32,880 --> 00:45:34,480 Speaker 26: It's been a tough year. We certainly don't want to 930 00:45:34,520 --> 00:45:36,359 Speaker 26: put people out of pocket. So you know, we made 931 00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:39,279 Speaker 26: a conscious decision the managers and the directors to make 932 00:45:39,320 --> 00:45:41,760 Speaker 26: sure that we do honor those vouchers for those people 933 00:45:41,800 --> 00:45:44,160 Speaker 26: that have are basically lost out, will being let down 934 00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:44,799 Speaker 26: by grab one. 935 00:45:45,000 --> 00:45:46,839 Speaker 5: Good on you man, that's very decent to you. That's 936 00:45:46,880 --> 00:45:49,720 Speaker 5: Deon Tilson, who is the general manager at Puakaie Springs 937 00:45:49,800 --> 00:45:52,440 Speaker 5: in Auckland. Right, let's deal with Sean Plunkett The BSA 938 00:45:52,560 --> 00:45:53,719 Speaker 5: next five twenty. 939 00:45:53,520 --> 00:45:58,280 Speaker 1: Two ad questions strong opinion here the duplicy Ellen drive 940 00:45:58,640 --> 00:46:02,200 Speaker 1: with one New Zealand the power of satellite Mobile news 941 00:46:02,280 --> 00:46:03,480 Speaker 1: Dog said be here. 942 00:46:03,520 --> 00:46:05,840 Speaker 5: The season three of The Diplomat still hasn't dropped. Do 943 00:46:05,880 --> 00:46:07,880 Speaker 5: you have any sway with Netflix to sort out the 944 00:46:08,640 --> 00:46:10,480 Speaker 5: catastrophic as you Laura? 945 00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:11,560 Speaker 15: So much sway? 946 00:46:11,840 --> 00:46:12,839 Speaker 5: Yes, so much sway. 947 00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:13,279 Speaker 4: Laura. 948 00:46:13,360 --> 00:46:16,239 Speaker 5: Can you look into this please for us? Daniels center 949 00:46:16,280 --> 00:46:17,880 Speaker 5: text through Daniel will see what we can do for you. 950 00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:21,160 Speaker 5: Five twenty five. Listen, I don't know how much most 951 00:46:21,200 --> 00:46:24,560 Speaker 5: people will care about the drama that's unfolding with the BSA. Obviously, 952 00:46:24,719 --> 00:46:27,400 Speaker 5: here in radio world we do because these people are 953 00:46:27,480 --> 00:46:30,560 Speaker 5: our watchdog. But if you enjoy watching people try something 954 00:46:30,600 --> 00:46:33,719 Speaker 5: on and then be forced to retreat, you might enjoy 955 00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:35,880 Speaker 5: this one. So what's happened here, what's kicked this off, 956 00:46:35,960 --> 00:46:38,759 Speaker 5: is that the BSA apparently decided in secret that they 957 00:46:38,800 --> 00:46:41,719 Speaker 5: would give themselves permission to tidy up not just New 958 00:46:41,800 --> 00:46:46,320 Speaker 5: Zealand's TV and radio, but now also the entire Internet. 959 00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:50,880 Speaker 5: And the first outfit that they've come after is the Platform. Now, 960 00:46:51,080 --> 00:46:53,759 Speaker 5: my personal dealings with the BSA have led me to 961 00:46:53,840 --> 00:46:55,960 Speaker 5: believe that the people drawn to sitting on bodies like 962 00:46:56,040 --> 00:46:59,520 Speaker 5: the BSA are not always the country's deepest thinkers. And 963 00:46:59,640 --> 00:47:02,520 Speaker 5: this only reinforces that because if you thought about this 964 00:47:02,640 --> 00:47:04,560 Speaker 5: for any more than ten minutes, you would realize the 965 00:47:04,640 --> 00:47:08,040 Speaker 5: BSA should just leave the Internet alone. The BSA can't 966 00:47:08,080 --> 00:47:10,440 Speaker 5: police the entire Internet, it's too big. What are they 967 00:47:10,480 --> 00:47:12,960 Speaker 5: seriously proposing to send Joe Rogan a fine for three 968 00:47:13,040 --> 00:47:15,880 Speaker 5: thousand New Zealand dollars if someone in New Zealand complains 969 00:47:15,880 --> 00:47:19,320 Speaker 5: about something he said. They can't even realistically police the 970 00:47:19,360 --> 00:47:21,680 Speaker 5: part of the Internet that New Zealand uses it's too big, 971 00:47:21,920 --> 00:47:24,759 Speaker 5: too many podcasts, too many videos, audiophiles, live streams, you 972 00:47:24,840 --> 00:47:26,560 Speaker 5: name it, which means they're going to have to pick 973 00:47:26,600 --> 00:47:28,320 Speaker 5: and choose what they police and crack down on in 974 00:47:28,400 --> 00:47:31,200 Speaker 5: the Internet, which will inevitably lead to them being accused 975 00:47:31,239 --> 00:47:34,359 Speaker 5: of bias and favoritism, which is exactly what has happened here, 976 00:47:34,680 --> 00:47:37,560 Speaker 5: because the first lot they've come after is the Platform, which, 977 00:47:37,600 --> 00:47:39,640 Speaker 5: if you know the story, was set up on the 978 00:47:39,719 --> 00:47:43,520 Speaker 5: Internet precisely to avoid the BSA and its rules. So 979 00:47:43,719 --> 00:47:46,200 Speaker 5: what a surprise that it's the first one the BSA 980 00:47:46,320 --> 00:47:49,440 Speaker 5: comes after. What a surprise that they're coppying a huge 981 00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:51,520 Speaker 5: amount of flack and resistance from all over the show, 982 00:47:51,600 --> 00:47:54,440 Speaker 5: including Winston and David Semol. It seems to me there 983 00:47:54,520 --> 00:47:56,480 Speaker 5: is a way out of this for the BSA. They 984 00:47:56,600 --> 00:47:59,680 Speaker 5: have to back down, because this is just an interim decision. 985 00:47:59,719 --> 00:48:02,400 Speaker 5: I think they might have to abandon it, and their 986 00:48:02,440 --> 00:48:05,640 Speaker 5: plans for Internet domination may have to also be abandoned, 987 00:48:05,800 --> 00:48:07,640 Speaker 5: and then they will have to eat some humble pie, 988 00:48:07,920 --> 00:48:09,759 Speaker 5: which surely would have been obvious to them if they 989 00:48:09,800 --> 00:48:11,839 Speaker 5: had only thought about it like the rest of us, 990 00:48:12,719 --> 00:48:14,840 Speaker 5: for about yeah, I don't know, ten. 991 00:48:14,719 --> 00:48:17,120 Speaker 2: Minutes, Heather due for c Allen. 992 00:48:17,520 --> 00:48:19,520 Speaker 5: Oh it's eight pm. Thank you. That's how quick Laura is. 993 00:48:19,560 --> 00:48:21,359 Speaker 5: She's looked it up for you, Daniel. And the third 994 00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:23,879 Speaker 5: season of The Diplomat, which I also am excited about. 995 00:48:24,080 --> 00:48:26,919 Speaker 5: I'm not judging you here. It's excellent and as I said, 996 00:48:26,920 --> 00:48:29,520 Speaker 5: it's got the two West wingers in it. Eight pm. 997 00:48:30,080 --> 00:48:32,080 Speaker 5: Sean Plunkett is going to be with us after six 998 00:48:32,200 --> 00:48:34,520 Speaker 5: to talk about the BSA. You're going to want to 999 00:48:34,560 --> 00:48:38,920 Speaker 5: hear what's going on with the Chinese. The Chinese building 1000 00:48:38,960 --> 00:48:40,560 Speaker 5: our ships. It turns out might be a bit of 1001 00:48:40,600 --> 00:48:42,920 Speaker 5: a problem if there is a war with China, we 1002 00:48:43,000 --> 00:48:44,480 Speaker 5: may come to regret it. We're going to talk to 1003 00:48:44,520 --> 00:48:48,680 Speaker 5: Anne Marie Brady about this shortly, Heather. At what time 1004 00:48:48,840 --> 00:48:51,120 Speaker 5: are we going to call out the obvious freak show 1005 00:48:51,200 --> 00:48:54,040 Speaker 5: that is Gloria Ail and somehow have it shut down? 1006 00:48:54,160 --> 00:48:57,799 Speaker 5: It's obvious to all exactly what is going on here. Look, Mark, 1007 00:48:58,000 --> 00:49:01,200 Speaker 5: I think most of us are having very much the 1008 00:49:01,239 --> 00:49:04,480 Speaker 5: same feeling that the world would be better if Gloria 1009 00:49:04,520 --> 00:49:07,319 Speaker 5: Vail didn't exist. But there is no law under which 1010 00:49:07,400 --> 00:49:09,560 Speaker 5: you can shut this down. Right, These are adults, I know, 1011 00:49:09,640 --> 00:49:11,560 Speaker 5: the children don't ask for it. These adults who got 1012 00:49:11,600 --> 00:49:14,320 Speaker 5: together to be weird, right, so you have to basically 1013 00:49:14,440 --> 00:49:16,719 Speaker 5: erode everything they're doing. And that is what the authorities 1014 00:49:16,719 --> 00:49:18,960 Speaker 5: are up to until they close it down themselves. News 1015 00:49:19,080 --> 00:49:19,600 Speaker 5: is next. 1016 00:49:22,400 --> 00:49:24,640 Speaker 2: Digging deeper into the day's headlines. 1017 00:49:24,880 --> 00:49:28,960 Speaker 1: It's Heather Duper Clan Drive with one New Zealand coverage 1018 00:49:29,080 --> 00:49:31,200 Speaker 1: like no one else News talks they'd be. 1019 00:49:45,680 --> 00:49:47,839 Speaker 5: I'd love to know what you think of Kim Kardashian's 1020 00:49:47,880 --> 00:49:52,960 Speaker 5: new lingerie line. Well, Andrew, we're ahead of you on that. 1021 00:49:53,239 --> 00:49:56,680 Speaker 5: We actually covered this on the show yesterday. And I 1022 00:49:56,760 --> 00:49:59,520 Speaker 5: don't know that you know what I just I just 1023 00:49:59,760 --> 00:50:02,959 Speaker 5: said some things about the BSA, and I just feel 1024 00:50:03,040 --> 00:50:05,239 Speaker 5: like they're going to be listening now with their little 1025 00:50:05,280 --> 00:50:07,600 Speaker 5: fingers hovering like you know what. They're not even going 1026 00:50:07,680 --> 00:50:10,040 Speaker 5: to wait for a complaint from anybody listening to this. 1027 00:50:10,120 --> 00:50:12,520 Speaker 5: They are simply going to file a complaint themselves. So 1028 00:50:12,640 --> 00:50:14,600 Speaker 5: I don't need I don't need to be going into 1029 00:50:14,640 --> 00:50:17,200 Speaker 5: her long lingerie line. Let me tell you, though, what 1030 00:50:17,360 --> 00:50:19,960 Speaker 5: I what I would say is I did want say 1031 00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:23,680 Speaker 5: on this show, you should never muck around your eyebrows, right, 1032 00:50:23,840 --> 00:50:27,480 Speaker 5: never make some don't permanently remove your eyebrows with laser 1033 00:50:27,880 --> 00:50:30,759 Speaker 5: or tattoo your eyebrows on, because if you do that 1034 00:50:30,960 --> 00:50:33,080 Speaker 5: and then the fashion changes, you will regret it. And 1035 00:50:33,200 --> 00:50:35,239 Speaker 5: I will simply say it may be true in this 1036 00:50:35,400 --> 00:50:37,040 Speaker 5: case too. Twenty three away from. 1037 00:50:36,960 --> 00:50:40,480 Speaker 2: Six ever, do for Cea Ellen Huddles. 1038 00:50:40,120 --> 00:50:42,640 Speaker 5: Standing by going to be thus shortly Now On another subject, 1039 00:50:42,680 --> 00:50:44,760 Speaker 5: concerns have been raised about the shipyard that the government 1040 00:50:44,800 --> 00:50:47,480 Speaker 5: has chosen to build our new cook straight fairies. It's 1041 00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:52,359 Speaker 5: Guangzhou Shipyard International, which also builds warships for the Chinese Navy, 1042 00:50:52,600 --> 00:50:54,920 Speaker 5: and this has been identified as a high risk shipyard 1043 00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:58,240 Speaker 5: by a research Institute of Washington DC. Anne Marie Brady 1044 00:50:58,360 --> 00:51:00,520 Speaker 5: is a China expert in Canterbury Universe to be Professor 1045 00:51:00,600 --> 00:51:04,160 Speaker 5: and with us high An Marie, good to talk to 1046 00:51:04,200 --> 00:51:05,239 Speaker 5: you here. Do you think it's a bit of a 1047 00:51:05,280 --> 00:51:06,399 Speaker 5: dodgy choice on our part? 1048 00:51:08,400 --> 00:51:13,040 Speaker 28: It's it's quite a confusing signal that our foreigmans are 1049 00:51:13,200 --> 00:51:18,240 Speaker 28: sending us because we know that when he was Foreign 1050 00:51:18,239 --> 00:51:20,560 Speaker 28: Minister with the Adan government and with this government, he's 1051 00:51:20,640 --> 00:51:27,520 Speaker 28: very concerned about the strategic infrastructure and also the harmful 1052 00:51:27,600 --> 00:51:31,080 Speaker 28: aspects of our relationship with China. So it's odd that 1053 00:51:31,160 --> 00:51:35,040 Speaker 28: they have chosen a military shipyard, which is what the 1054 00:51:35,239 --> 00:51:39,479 Speaker 28: Guangdong Shipyard International is in Chinese. It's a gang Guang 1055 00:51:39,560 --> 00:51:43,160 Speaker 28: Chunk wood. It's always been a military ship plutyard. It 1056 00:51:43,320 --> 00:51:47,640 Speaker 28: builds the PLA Navy vessels such as their Taipo two 1057 00:51:47,719 --> 00:51:52,600 Speaker 28: torpedo boat and high speed gun boats. They have also 1058 00:51:52,640 --> 00:51:58,160 Speaker 28: built their hospital. They're a military hospital vessel. So it's 1059 00:51:58,640 --> 00:52:03,440 Speaker 28: it's a it's an unusual because the Fairies are a 1060 00:52:03,520 --> 00:52:07,120 Speaker 28: strategic infrastructure for New Zealand. It's part of our national connectivity. 1061 00:52:07,560 --> 00:52:11,400 Speaker 28: So you wouldn't want to give that kind of the contract, 1062 00:52:11,480 --> 00:52:15,000 Speaker 28: that kind of technology to the state that you're so 1063 00:52:15,120 --> 00:52:18,880 Speaker 28: concerned about. I mean, we know China's did show of 1064 00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:21,200 Speaker 28: force in the Tasman Sea in February. 1065 00:52:22,680 --> 00:52:25,120 Speaker 29: The SAS tell us that China is our main source 1066 00:52:25,160 --> 00:52:28,960 Speaker 29: of foreign interference and spinage. GCSP said, the main source 1067 00:52:29,160 --> 00:52:34,239 Speaker 29: state source of cyber attacks, China threatening economic coercion against us. 1068 00:52:35,000 --> 00:52:36,719 Speaker 29: You think about it, if it was nineteen eighty seven 1069 00:52:36,800 --> 00:52:38,839 Speaker 29: the Soviet Union said hey, I've got a great deal 1070 00:52:38,880 --> 00:52:42,440 Speaker 29: for you on your telecommunication networks. We'd say no, thank you, 1071 00:52:42,680 --> 00:52:45,880 Speaker 29: We'll staly milk powder and buy some larders from you, 1072 00:52:46,480 --> 00:52:50,400 Speaker 29: but we won't give you access to our strategic infrastructures. 1073 00:52:50,480 --> 00:52:53,240 Speaker 28: So it's just a bit of a confusion, confusing signal. 1074 00:52:53,360 --> 00:52:55,400 Speaker 5: I think have you read about the US cranes that 1075 00:52:55,480 --> 00:52:58,960 Speaker 5: have been built the Chinese cranes built for the US ports. 1076 00:53:01,040 --> 00:53:05,840 Speaker 28: Yeah, the US and the EU are looking really hard, 1077 00:53:06,040 --> 00:53:09,400 Speaker 28: and the UK are looking really hard, and Australia at 1078 00:53:09,480 --> 00:53:13,440 Speaker 28: strategic infrastructure and the dependency on China. And we've been 1079 00:53:13,520 --> 00:53:15,360 Speaker 28: through this already, you know our police. 1080 00:53:15,400 --> 00:53:17,080 Speaker 5: But I want to ask you something about the. 1081 00:53:17,400 --> 00:53:20,920 Speaker 28: CCT cameras and they don't about the cranes. 1082 00:53:21,000 --> 00:53:23,160 Speaker 5: Yes, So the thing about the cranes is that they're 1083 00:53:23,239 --> 00:53:26,000 Speaker 5: worried that these cranes are able to have have had 1084 00:53:26,280 --> 00:53:29,640 Speaker 5: vulnerabilities put into them that the Chinese are then able 1085 00:53:29,719 --> 00:53:31,480 Speaker 5: to exploit at a time of their choosing, like a 1086 00:53:31,520 --> 00:53:33,440 Speaker 5: Trojan horse type thing, and then they can take control 1087 00:53:33,480 --> 00:53:35,440 Speaker 5: of the crane if they need them. Is that realistic? 1088 00:53:35,480 --> 00:53:37,239 Speaker 5: And the concern then is that the same thing may 1089 00:53:37,239 --> 00:53:39,080 Speaker 5: be true of the fairies. Is that realistic? 1090 00:53:39,680 --> 00:53:46,440 Speaker 28: Absolutely? Yes, it is. Unfortunately we are back into the 1091 00:53:46,880 --> 00:53:51,960 Speaker 28: era of two worlds to strategic technology, and we are 1092 00:53:52,160 --> 00:53:55,840 Speaker 28: also really we've got a hot war in Europe, and 1093 00:53:55,960 --> 00:53:59,800 Speaker 28: we've got hybrid warfare in the Indo Pacific and we 1094 00:54:00,080 --> 00:54:02,440 Speaker 28: really have we do have a risk of war in 1095 00:54:02,600 --> 00:54:10,120 Speaker 28: our region two unfortunately, so we cannot allow strategic technology 1096 00:54:10,400 --> 00:54:14,279 Speaker 28: to be to be from a country where we have 1097 00:54:14,600 --> 00:54:16,799 Speaker 28: at such a strategic risk as China. You think about 1098 00:54:16,840 --> 00:54:18,959 Speaker 28: our New Zealand navy boats, they're not made by China, 1099 00:54:19,000 --> 00:54:22,920 Speaker 28: They're made by Germany, Australia, Korea, and we actually had 1100 00:54:22,960 --> 00:54:26,080 Speaker 28: a deal with the Koreans and it's costing US six 1101 00:54:26,239 --> 00:54:28,160 Speaker 28: hundred and seventy million dollars in break three. 1102 00:54:28,320 --> 00:54:28,879 Speaker 4: Oh yea fees. 1103 00:54:29,200 --> 00:54:32,560 Speaker 5: No you don't reverse that against the Koreans. Yeah, no, 1104 00:54:33,080 --> 00:54:34,960 Speaker 5: I think most of us who care about money think 1105 00:54:35,000 --> 00:54:37,040 Speaker 5: this is one of the nuttier things that's happened. Listen, 1106 00:54:37,120 --> 00:54:40,280 Speaker 5: Amory thinks so much appreciated.

They 1137 00:56:06,760 --> 00:56:09,400 Speaker 3: played the guitar. It was a very Irish event in 1138 00:56:09,480 --> 00:56:12,560 Speaker 3: many ways, Irish Catholic, and I think he was as 1139 00:56:12,640 --> 00:56:13,680 Speaker 3: happy as a clam. 1140 00:56:13,480 --> 00:56:16,680 Speaker 5: Do you think. So, it wasn't really shocked that he 1141 00:56:16,800 --> 00:56:18,799 Speaker 5: passed away because he had been really unwell for quite 1142 00:56:18,840 --> 00:56:19,120 Speaker 5: a time. 1143 00:56:20,040 --> 00:56:23,239 Speaker 3: Yeah, his health had been failing, and he remained him 1144 00:56:23,320 --> 00:56:28,200 Speaker 3: Really I thought, great spirits given that because he was 1145 00:56:28,239 --> 00:56:30,640 Speaker 3: on dialysis at home, you know, up to five times 1146 00:56:30,640 --> 00:56:34,279 Speaker 3: a day. That's that's really taxing on the system. It 1147 00:56:34,640 --> 00:56:37,120 Speaker 3: stops you doing a whole bunch of other things, really 1148 00:56:37,200 --> 00:56:40,560 Speaker 3: restraining on Joan. But they have family nearby, and a 1149 00:56:40,640 --> 00:56:43,600 Speaker 3: couple of her daughters lived nearby, and they were sort 1150 00:56:43,600 --> 00:56:46,439 Speaker 3: of in and out all the time. And also Jim 1151 00:56:46,520 --> 00:56:49,680 Speaker 3: had the phone and he really you know, took her 1152 00:56:49,920 --> 00:56:52,839 Speaker 3: calling up his old mates, just yearning about the good 1153 00:56:52,880 --> 00:56:55,400 Speaker 3: old days and also about what's going on currently in politics. 1154 00:56:55,640 --> 00:56:59,120 Speaker 3: And I read, you know, Ruth Richardson commenting on him, 1155 00:56:59,160 --> 00:57:04,080 Speaker 3: repudiating some of you know, the policies she drove through. Well, 1156 00:57:04,560 --> 00:57:07,960 Speaker 3: he wasn't an ideologue, as I think one could say 1157 00:57:08,239 --> 00:57:11,239 Speaker 3: Ruth was. So he had had time to reflect on 1158 00:57:11,719 --> 00:57:14,719 Speaker 3: the human whole of those doesn't mean that both policies 1159 00:57:14,760 --> 00:57:18,560 Speaker 3: and their implementation was wrong. But he was basically someone 1160 00:57:18,600 --> 00:57:20,800 Speaker 3: with a pretty big heart, and he could see that 1161 00:57:20,920 --> 00:57:25,080 Speaker 3: there is always somebody who gets the you know, the 1162 00:57:25,240 --> 00:57:28,320 Speaker 3: bad end of the deal, and others get much richer 1163 00:57:28,400 --> 00:57:29,720 Speaker 3: as a result of some politics. 1164 00:57:29,800 --> 00:57:32,080 Speaker 5: Now, Thomas, you're a bit of a student of politics. 1165 00:57:33,000 --> 00:57:34,360 Speaker 5: What's your take on him? 1166 00:57:35,880 --> 00:57:39,440 Speaker 30: Certainly, I think it's interesting how much of an ambiguous 1167 00:57:39,480 --> 00:57:42,760 Speaker 30: figure Jim Bolger is when people reflect on his legacy. 1168 00:57:43,320 --> 00:57:46,680 Speaker 30: People who he was collaborating with in politics, Ruth Richardson 1169 00:57:47,160 --> 00:57:50,040 Speaker 30: recognized a rift had emerged in how they were viewing 1170 00:57:50,560 --> 00:57:52,480 Speaker 30: the legacy of their government, and some people who were 1171 00:57:52,520 --> 00:57:56,080 Speaker 30: on the other side of politics came to recognize Jim Bolger. 1172 00:57:56,440 --> 00:57:59,520 Speaker 30: I think his largest legacy really is those treaty settlements, 1173 00:57:59,800 --> 00:58:02,960 Speaker 30: and many people have recognized that because they were such 1174 00:58:03,000 --> 00:58:07,160 Speaker 30: a transitional event for New Zealand politics. He recognized that 1175 00:58:08,000 --> 00:58:10,880 Speaker 30: for Mahi to have Mana Motuhaki, to have I guess 1176 00:58:11,120 --> 00:58:14,200 Speaker 30: a sense of redress and independence, it was actually economic 1177 00:58:14,240 --> 00:58:17,200 Speaker 30: independence that really mattered, and those have been huge successes. 1178 00:58:17,320 --> 00:58:21,600 Speaker 30: Nighttahu and Taiinui economic powerhouses now because of what Jim 1179 00:58:21,680 --> 00:58:24,320 Speaker 30: Bolger did. And I guess the other observation to make 1180 00:58:24,440 --> 00:58:27,520 Speaker 30: is he was our last prime minister without a tertiary education. 1181 00:58:28,520 --> 00:58:31,200 Speaker 30: Ever since, it's all been Uni people, and I think 1182 00:58:31,240 --> 00:58:33,480 Speaker 30: that's a real shift in New Zealand public life. It's 1183 00:58:33,520 --> 00:58:35,840 Speaker 30: hard to imagine now and I think this is a tragedy, 1184 00:58:36,080 --> 00:58:38,080 Speaker 30: but it's hard to imagine now who was coming into 1185 00:58:38,200 --> 00:58:42,080 Speaker 30: public political leadership without a university education. And I think 1186 00:58:42,120 --> 00:58:43,720 Speaker 30: that's real loss to us at you know. 1187 00:58:43,760 --> 00:58:45,280 Speaker 5: What, I actually do agree with you, and also the 1188 00:58:45,360 --> 00:58:47,920 Speaker 5: last of the farmer prime ministers, isn't it right? We'll 1189 00:58:47,920 --> 00:58:49,360 Speaker 5: take a break come back to you, guys, shortly called 1190 00:58:49,360 --> 00:58:51,040 Speaker 5: it to the huddle with. 1191 00:58:51,160 --> 00:58:55,280 Speaker 1: New Zealand Southeby's International Realty, find your one of a kind. 1192 00:58:56,320 --> 00:58:58,240 Speaker 5: Twelve away from six and we have the huddle back 1193 00:58:58,280 --> 00:59:00,400 Speaker 5: with us Claire de Law and Thomas Scrimgerhead. They read 1194 00:59:00,440 --> 00:59:02,000 Speaker 5: the boats, what are you worried about? We're going to 1195 00:59:02,040 --> 00:59:05,120 Speaker 5: sink them before any war anyway, which is probably true. 1196 00:59:05,160 --> 00:59:07,560 Speaker 5: We'll figure out a way to make the autopilot network. Thomas, A. 1197 00:59:07,640 --> 00:59:09,160 Speaker 5: You worried about this with the Chinese? 1198 00:59:10,520 --> 00:59:11,200 Speaker 4: Not especially? 1199 00:59:11,280 --> 00:59:14,040 Speaker 30: I mean I can hear the concern people have. China 1200 00:59:14,200 --> 00:59:18,400 Speaker 30: is obviously a geopolitical actor that will not always necessarily 1201 00:59:18,600 --> 00:59:21,560 Speaker 30: aligned with if we're going to be cagy about language. 1202 00:59:21,600 --> 00:59:24,320 Speaker 30: But certainly it's a real risk to New Zealand. But 1203 00:59:24,400 --> 00:59:27,760 Speaker 30: we're doing business with China in all aspects of life anyway. 1204 00:59:28,080 --> 00:59:30,480 Speaker 30: If we're going to draw a line with engaging with 1205 00:59:30,600 --> 00:59:34,120 Speaker 30: China and doing business, purchasing theory seems like a weird 1206 00:59:34,200 --> 00:59:37,320 Speaker 30: place to draw that line. Obviously would prefer to have 1207 00:59:37,400 --> 00:59:41,000 Speaker 30: a values aligned country to theories off. But if the 1208 00:59:41,080 --> 00:59:43,640 Speaker 30: Chinese theories are the best deal, it seems like a 1209 00:59:43,680 --> 00:59:44,880 Speaker 30: pragmatic thing to proceed. 1210 00:59:45,520 --> 00:59:48,720 Speaker 5: What do you think, Claire, I'm. 1211 00:59:48,600 --> 00:59:51,120 Speaker 3: Afraid I have to agree. It does seem to me 1212 00:59:51,320 --> 00:59:54,440 Speaker 3: gives a degree of paranoia about it, But you know, 1213 00:59:54,600 --> 00:59:57,840 Speaker 3: perhaps there is justifiable concern. But I didn't hear Anne 1214 00:59:57,840 --> 01:00:00,800 Speaker 3: Marie Brady's favor decision was actually wrong. And I just 1215 01:00:00,880 --> 01:00:03,680 Speaker 3: wonder if one looks at the contract, is there an ability, 1216 01:00:03,720 --> 01:00:07,920 Speaker 3: for example, for New Zealand to have inspectors go in 1217 01:00:08,040 --> 01:00:11,320 Speaker 3: and try and work out where the potential sort of 1218 01:00:11,400 --> 01:00:14,640 Speaker 3: software is being planted that's going to track us. Reality is, 1219 01:00:14,720 --> 01:00:18,720 Speaker 3: most of us are easily tracked, and you know, communications 1220 01:00:18,800 --> 01:00:21,520 Speaker 3: in scept it because we're using iPhones made in China, 1221 01:00:21,920 --> 01:00:23,840 Speaker 3: and we have televisions made in China, and we have 1222 01:00:24,400 --> 01:00:26,400 Speaker 3: a range of other things that can track us and 1223 01:00:26,440 --> 01:00:29,800 Speaker 3: are attracking us all the time. So I'm not as 1224 01:00:29,840 --> 01:00:31,360 Speaker 3: concerned as possibly I should be. 1225 01:00:32,000 --> 01:00:34,640 Speaker 5: Maybe I'm wrong, Yeah, I think I think actually you've 1226 01:00:34,640 --> 01:00:36,160 Speaker 5: probably hit the nail on the head there. Clear I 1227 01:00:36,200 --> 01:00:37,960 Speaker 5: suspect we should be a little bit more concerned. We're 1228 01:00:38,000 --> 01:00:39,840 Speaker 5: probably going to end up having to decide whether we 1229 01:00:39,920 --> 01:00:41,040 Speaker 5: want to go to war with them or not. But 1230 01:00:41,200 --> 01:00:42,439 Speaker 5: you know who can be bothered being. 1231 01:00:42,400 --> 01:00:45,800 Speaker 3: Well, it's probably also a timing issue. Yeah, you know, 1232 01:00:45,920 --> 01:00:48,040 Speaker 3: they probably can deliver on time. Now that's going to 1233 01:00:48,040 --> 01:00:50,720 Speaker 3: have been really important to our Minister of Railways. Yeah, 1234 01:00:51,040 --> 01:00:52,959 Speaker 3: but these theories are delivered on time. 1235 01:00:53,200 --> 01:00:55,520 Speaker 5: Very good point. Hey, Thomas, what do you think about 1236 01:00:55,520 --> 01:00:58,080 Speaker 5: the BSA deciding that it's got greater powers than everyone 1237 01:00:58,080 --> 01:00:58,840 Speaker 5: else thought they had. 1238 01:01:00,040 --> 01:01:02,480 Speaker 30: Oh, I think they're fairly optimistic if they think they're 1239 01:01:02,480 --> 01:01:04,520 Speaker 30: going to be able to get this across the line, 1240 01:01:05,040 --> 01:01:07,480 Speaker 30: this little in the new kind of ambiguity. Going back 1241 01:01:07,560 --> 01:01:10,240 Speaker 30: twenty nineteen, they had a paper where they were trying 1242 01:01:10,280 --> 01:01:12,760 Speaker 30: to figure out what they could or couldn't do around 1243 01:01:12,880 --> 01:01:15,919 Speaker 30: the Internet. But I think it's just a basic fact 1244 01:01:16,000 --> 01:01:18,520 Speaker 30: that even if they want to, firstly, they should be 1245 01:01:18,560 --> 01:01:22,200 Speaker 30: done by legislation, by Parliament deciding. But I just don't 1246 01:01:22,200 --> 01:01:24,360 Speaker 30: think they're going to be able to have any control 1247 01:01:24,480 --> 01:01:27,480 Speaker 30: over the Internet. Imagine if they did try to regulate 1248 01:01:27,560 --> 01:01:30,720 Speaker 30: and were trying to impose sanctions upon Short and Plunket. 1249 01:01:31,040 --> 01:01:34,000 Speaker 30: The absolute worst case scenario for him is that he 1250 01:01:34,080 --> 01:01:37,240 Speaker 30: moves to Sydney and does the same show, because unlike 1251 01:01:37,360 --> 01:01:40,760 Speaker 30: old fashioned media radio and TV, even if it's that 1252 01:01:40,920 --> 01:01:43,440 Speaker 30: is produced overseas, it still has to come over New 1253 01:01:43,520 --> 01:01:47,160 Speaker 30: Zealand airwaves. But that's not the case with Internet produced material. 1254 01:01:47,480 --> 01:01:49,720 Speaker 30: If Plunkett wanted to move to Sydney and do the 1255 01:01:49,760 --> 01:01:51,960 Speaker 30: same things cerdainly, none of it is produced or being 1256 01:01:52,160 --> 01:01:54,720 Speaker 30: sent over in New Zealand airwaves and he's away laughing. 1257 01:01:55,320 --> 01:01:58,240 Speaker 30: So it's probably good for Plunket's brand. He set up 1258 01:01:58,280 --> 01:02:01,440 Speaker 30: the platformed you in his own own words, to be independent, 1259 01:02:01,520 --> 01:02:04,120 Speaker 30: and now he's got a water fight. So good luck 1260 01:02:04,160 --> 01:02:04,680 Speaker 30: to the BSA. 1261 01:02:04,800 --> 01:02:08,000 Speaker 5: I guess, Claire, I don't think they thought this through. 1262 01:02:08,080 --> 01:02:10,760 Speaker 3: What do you think, well, I think if people who 1263 01:02:10,760 --> 01:02:14,040 Speaker 3: are opposed to it think it's through. They'll just complain 1264 01:02:14,120 --> 01:02:17,840 Speaker 3: about everything and their system will be so clogged up, 1265 01:02:17,880 --> 01:02:19,440 Speaker 3: but they will never be able to say the. 1266 01:02:19,480 --> 01:02:21,480 Speaker 5: Excellent point you make, leader, all you need to do 1267 01:02:22,200 --> 01:02:26,040 Speaker 5: go listen to the Alternative Alternative Commentary Collective. They swear 1268 01:02:26,080 --> 01:02:28,280 Speaker 5: about five hundred and twenty seven times a minute. So 1269 01:02:28,480 --> 01:02:30,680 Speaker 5: just complain about all of that to the BSA. They 1270 01:02:30,680 --> 01:02:32,720 Speaker 5: won't even be able to get through a day's worth 1271 01:02:32,760 --> 01:02:33,760 Speaker 5: of complaints in a year. 1272 01:02:34,680 --> 01:02:37,600 Speaker 3: They totally won't. And so if people, you know, I 1273 01:02:38,000 --> 01:02:41,520 Speaker 3: want to abstract it, they could easily do that, but 1274 01:02:41,640 --> 01:02:43,240 Speaker 3: also have to say, well, what sort of teeth have 1275 01:02:43,320 --> 01:02:46,000 Speaker 3: they got, what sort of ancients can they apply that 1276 01:02:46,120 --> 01:02:50,880 Speaker 3: are meaningful? They sell them. The BSA sold them, for example, 1277 01:02:51,400 --> 01:02:55,080 Speaker 3: asked for broadcaster and radio at least to take down something. 1278 01:02:56,320 --> 01:02:59,960 Speaker 3: Usually there's you know, they find that something has been wrong. 1279 01:03:00,080 --> 01:03:06,000 Speaker 3: An apology might be required, but mostly broadcasts podcast can 1280 01:03:06,080 --> 01:03:09,280 Speaker 3: stay up, and you could argue they should be taken down, 1281 01:03:09,640 --> 01:03:12,400 Speaker 3: but they don't usually do that. And so I just 1282 01:03:12,440 --> 01:03:14,960 Speaker 3: sort of wonder what the point is of expanding the 1283 01:03:15,080 --> 01:03:17,760 Speaker 3: REMIT when what they're doing currently, if it's to have 1284 01:03:17,880 --> 01:03:21,200 Speaker 3: any sort of substantial effect, needs. 1285 01:03:21,040 --> 01:03:23,520 Speaker 5: Reform anyway, it makes such a good point. Guys, it's 1286 01:03:23,520 --> 01:03:25,080 Speaker 5: wonderful to talk to you. Thank you so much. Clear 1287 01:03:25,120 --> 01:03:27,480 Speaker 5: to Lord Journalists and Thomas Scrimger Maxim Institute. Do you 1288 01:03:27,520 --> 01:03:29,080 Speaker 5: know what I actually I'll tell you. Do you know 1289 01:03:29,160 --> 01:03:31,240 Speaker 5: what I know what I would complain about? Well, I'm 1290 01:03:31,240 --> 01:03:32,959 Speaker 5: actually kind of tempted. I'll tell you. In a minute 1291 01:03:33,000 --> 01:03:33,680 Speaker 5: light away from six. 1292 01:03:34,720 --> 01:03:38,120 Speaker 1: It's the Heather Duplessy Allen Drive Full Show podcast on 1293 01:03:38,440 --> 01:03:40,840 Speaker 1: my Ard Radio powered by News Talk ZB. 1294 01:03:43,360 --> 01:03:46,280 Speaker 5: Heather, is this Chinese fairy thing like the rebels putting 1295 01:03:46,280 --> 01:03:50,919 Speaker 5: a fault in the First's Death Star?

They've responded to a complaint which was 1372 01:07:20,600 --> 01:07:23,400 Speaker 5: filed about a comment that broadcaster Sean Plunkett made on 1373 01:07:23,440 --> 01:07:26,720 Speaker 5: his online only show the platform. BSA Chief executive Stacy 1374 01:07:26,760 --> 01:07:27,760 Speaker 5: Wood explains the thinking. 1375 01:07:28,040 --> 01:07:30,640 Speaker 25: We've said that we're going to asses online complaints on 1376 01:07:30,680 --> 01:07:33,439 Speaker 25: a case by case basis, and we have previously said 1377 01:07:33,480 --> 01:07:36,919 Speaker 25: that things like social media don't seem as clearly within 1378 01:07:37,000 --> 01:07:40,439 Speaker 25: the purpose of the act. However, we acknowledge these broadcasters 1379 01:07:40,560 --> 01:07:45,360 Speaker 25: that simultaneously broadcast on their own channels, terrestrial channels, their 1380 01:07:45,400 --> 01:07:48,520 Speaker 25: Facebook pages. So yeah, good, very good question, and we 1381 01:07:48,640 --> 01:07:50,240 Speaker 25: look forward to determining those complaints. 1382 01:07:51,320 --> 01:07:54,360 Speaker 5: So the question is how do they decide what they're 1383 01:07:54,360 --> 01:07:55,000 Speaker 5: going to go after. 1384 01:07:55,240 --> 01:07:59,160 Speaker 25: Yeah, it's applying a pragmatic lens to it. Does it 1385 01:07:59,240 --> 01:08:01,120 Speaker 25: look like radio? It doesn't sound like radio. 1386 01:08:01,360 --> 01:08:03,640 Speaker 5: Broadcaster Sean Plunket is with us on this. Hello, Sean, 1387 01:08:04,520 --> 01:08:06,760 Speaker 5: get a eather. Nice to talk to you, lovely to 1388 01:08:06,840 --> 01:08:09,200 Speaker 5: chat to you. Now, did you have any indication at 1389 01:08:09,280 --> 01:08:12,320 Speaker 5: all before this arrived that you were now under their jurisdiction. 1390 01:08:13,400 --> 01:08:17,479 Speaker 21: Nope, none whatsoever. In fact, we ran promost when we 1391 01:08:17,640 --> 01:08:18,840 Speaker 21: started pointing. 1392 01:08:18,560 --> 01:08:19,400 Speaker 4: Out that we weren't. 1393 01:08:20,960 --> 01:08:23,800 Speaker 27: Yes, and when did you start three and a half 1394 01:08:23,920 --> 01:08:24,280 Speaker 27: years ago? 1395 01:08:24,520 --> 01:08:26,800 Speaker 5: Right, And so they had indicated that they've actually made 1396 01:08:26,840 --> 01:08:28,800 Speaker 5: this decision all the way back in twenty nineteen. So 1397 01:08:28,880 --> 01:08:31,000 Speaker 5: it's been What that means, It's been kept a secret 1398 01:08:31,040 --> 01:08:32,600 Speaker 5: from all of us for about six years, isn't it. 1399 01:08:33,560 --> 01:08:37,439 Speaker 27: Yes? And they've never levied me. I don't even know 1400 01:08:37,520 --> 01:08:40,400 Speaker 27: what the broadcasting standards are. They've never sent them to many. 1401 01:08:42,479 --> 01:08:45,200 Speaker 5: Do you think from that comment about if it looks 1402 01:08:45,240 --> 01:08:48,160 Speaker 5: like radio and sounds like radio, then it's radio, does 1403 01:08:48,240 --> 01:08:50,000 Speaker 5: that clarify it at all for you? 1404 01:08:51,400 --> 01:08:54,519 Speaker 27: No, pen I don't think it clarifies for it for 1405 01:08:54,680 --> 01:08:57,320 Speaker 27: anyone else either. Here that I think the problem is. 1406 01:08:57,680 --> 01:09:01,040 Speaker 27: I think they are having a crack. I don't quite 1407 01:09:01,120 --> 01:09:05,040 Speaker 27: know why they've messed it up so fundamentally from the 1408 01:09:05,080 --> 01:09:08,120 Speaker 27: get go. This complaint will never see the light of day. 1409 01:09:09,160 --> 01:09:09,320 Speaker 4: Yeah. 1410 01:09:09,360 --> 01:09:11,000 Speaker 5: Are you of the view that they're going to back down? 1411 01:09:12,280 --> 01:09:17,600 Speaker 27: Well, I think they'll have to. They've got nowhere to 1412 01:09:17,680 --> 01:09:22,720 Speaker 27: go with this. They can't say that I was under 1413 01:09:22,760 --> 01:09:26,800 Speaker 27: their jurisdiction when I made the comments, because they've had 1414 01:09:26,840 --> 01:09:30,439 Speaker 27: to issue a judgment saying asserting that they are so 1415 01:09:30,640 --> 01:09:36,200 Speaker 27: clearly I wasn't, So the complaint falls over and they're 1416 01:09:36,320 --> 01:09:40,519 Speaker 27: kind of grab for jurisdiction falls over because they're acting 1417 01:09:40,560 --> 01:09:43,360 Speaker 27: outside the law. Parliament hasn't told them they can do 1418 01:09:43,479 --> 01:09:47,280 Speaker 27: this in fact, it specifically said, we don't want to 1419 01:09:47,320 --> 01:09:51,519 Speaker 27: address this stick to elane. They're going outside their lane. 1420 01:09:51,880 --> 01:09:52,639 Speaker 27: That is illegal. 1421 01:09:52,840 --> 01:09:54,960 Speaker 5: Do you not see? Is there not an argument that 1422 01:09:55,160 --> 01:09:59,040 Speaker 5: they can interpret their legislation as including the Internet? 1423 01:10:00,640 --> 01:10:03,880 Speaker 27: Why it is not because the legislation was written in 1424 01:10:03,960 --> 01:10:05,519 Speaker 27: nineteen ninety nine before the Internet. 1425 01:10:05,640 --> 01:10:08,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, but it took about it's about transmission being received 1426 01:10:08,439 --> 01:10:10,280 Speaker 5: and so on like that, you know, and you can 1427 01:10:10,400 --> 01:10:12,559 Speaker 5: see that that could put the definition. 1428 01:10:13,240 --> 01:10:16,120 Speaker 21: And it was for people who had to get broadcasting 1429 01:10:16,240 --> 01:10:21,400 Speaker 21: licenses radio and television stations. I don't need a broadcasting 1430 01:10:21,520 --> 01:10:24,680 Speaker 21: license and I haven't got one, okay, And they've never 1431 01:10:24,840 --> 01:10:26,760 Speaker 21: levied me to pay for them the two and a 1432 01:10:26,800 --> 01:10:28,360 Speaker 21: half million dollars a year they cost. 1433 01:10:29,680 --> 01:10:32,680 Speaker 5: Now, quick question is why did they do this then? 1434 01:10:34,600 --> 01:10:38,400 Speaker 21: Because three of their board members were appointed by Willie 1435 01:10:38,479 --> 01:10:43,760 Speaker 21: Jackson and it is a back doorway to try and 1436 01:10:44,040 --> 01:10:48,400 Speaker 21: mold media narratives and suppress freedom of speech in New Zealand. 1437 01:10:48,479 --> 01:10:51,559 Speaker 5: But hold on the tech. They can't be that dumb, 1438 01:10:51,680 --> 01:10:52,680 Speaker 5: though Sean that. 1439 01:10:52,760 --> 01:10:56,960 Speaker 27: They thought, yes they can.

And 1478 01:12:36,320 --> 01:12:39,880 Speaker 21: I don't think you need I don't think zed B 1479 01:12:40,120 --> 01:12:45,160 Speaker 21: needs to have them basically, and what they are basically 1480 01:12:45,320 --> 01:12:50,559 Speaker 21: they use the threat of the process, the convoluted process 1481 01:12:50,720 --> 01:12:54,920 Speaker 21: of a BSA complaint. They use that threat to kind 1482 01:12:54,960 --> 01:12:59,440 Speaker 21: of create an atmosphere of fear where you're more circumspect 1483 01:12:59,560 --> 01:13:03,680 Speaker 21: about exercising your freedom of speech as a broadcaster, and 1484 01:13:03,840 --> 01:13:07,679 Speaker 21: your call is a more circumspect about exercising their freedom 1485 01:13:07,720 --> 01:13:12,520 Speaker 21: of speech because God, just the trouble and the bureaucracy 1486 01:13:12,760 --> 01:13:18,439 Speaker 21: of going through what they create is, you know, damages people. 1487 01:13:18,600 --> 01:13:20,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's a fair point, Sean. It's good to talk 1488 01:13:20,120 --> 01:13:21,400 Speaker 5: to you. Thanks for coming on. Good luck with it. 1489 01:13:21,520 --> 01:13:25,400 Speaker 5: Broadcaster Sean Plunket, who's with the platform thirteen past. 1490 01:13:25,160 --> 01:13:27,840 Speaker 2: Six, Heather due to see Alan. 1491 01:13:28,160 --> 01:13:30,439 Speaker 5: Yeah, we will get to the Matt Mowbra thing and 1492 01:13:30,520 --> 01:13:32,599 Speaker 5: just can I just quickly update you on what's gone 1493 01:13:32,600 --> 01:13:35,640 Speaker 5: on with Auckland University. This is the compulsory treaty of 1494 01:13:35,680 --> 01:13:38,400 Speaker 5: White Tonguey course that they had. They have now done 1495 01:13:38,439 --> 01:13:40,160 Speaker 5: exactly what we thought that they would do, which is 1496 01:13:40,240 --> 01:13:43,320 Speaker 5: that they voted to make it optional instead of compulsory. 1497 01:13:43,720 --> 01:13:48,000 Speaker 5: The council, the university's council voted yesterday afternoon. They had 1498 01:13:48,080 --> 01:13:51,720 Speaker 5: seven members voting in favor of it becoming optional, two 1499 01:13:51,880 --> 01:13:55,040 Speaker 5: wanted to keep it compulsory, and one abstained. Well, what's 1500 01:13:55,120 --> 01:13:57,240 Speaker 5: interesting about this because that none of that's a surprise, 1501 01:13:57,320 --> 01:13:58,960 Speaker 5: like you could see this coming a mile off. But 1502 01:13:59,080 --> 01:14:01,600 Speaker 5: what's interesting about about it is that the staff are 1503 01:14:01,680 --> 01:14:04,400 Speaker 5: deeply unhappy about this. There's a letter that's been signed 1504 01:14:04,439 --> 01:14:09,760 Speaker 5: by four hundred and twenty six university staffers calling for 1505 01:14:09,840 --> 01:14:12,320 Speaker 5: the course to be retained for the next three years 1506 01:14:12,520 --> 01:14:15,960 Speaker 5: as compulsory to provide sufficient time for implementation. As in, 1507 01:14:16,040 --> 01:14:18,320 Speaker 5: basically people get used to it and stop complaining about 1508 01:14:18,320 --> 01:14:20,920 Speaker 5: it and just suck it up and gave it. Was 1509 01:14:20,960 --> 01:14:24,760 Speaker 5: a five page letter as well, outlining the reasons why 1510 01:14:24,840 --> 01:14:27,439 Speaker 5: staff wanted the course to remain, claiming there had been 1511 01:14:27,439 --> 01:14:30,360 Speaker 5: a lack of transparency in the review process of the course. Well, 1512 01:14:30,479 --> 01:14:32,599 Speaker 5: Boho gone, quarter past. 1513 01:14:33,560 --> 01:14:36,960 Speaker 1: It's the Heather Dupas Allen Drive Full Show podcast on 1514 01:14:37,200 --> 01:14:39,719 Speaker 1: my Heart Radio powered by newstalg ZEPPI. 1515 01:14:40,720 --> 01:14:43,200 Speaker 5: Heather on the concerns about the Chinese building the ferry. 1516 01:14:43,280 --> 01:14:46,559 Speaker 5: Boeing and Airbus both make military aircraft as well as civilians. 1517 01:14:46,560 --> 01:14:49,360 Speaker 5: So what's the point, Well, you're missing you slightly missing 1518 01:14:49,400 --> 01:14:53,360 Speaker 5: the point there. Boeing yes, does make military aircraft and 1519 01:14:53,479 --> 01:14:56,240 Speaker 5: civilian aircraft. And Airbus, yes, does make military aircraft and 1520 01:14:56,280 --> 01:14:58,400 Speaker 5: civilian aircraft. I'm taking you word of that. But here's 1521 01:14:58,400 --> 01:15:00,120 Speaker 5: the thing. Boeing is made by the Americans in the 1522 01:15:00,160 --> 01:15:02,560 Speaker 5: air Buses made by the people in Europe, so and 1523 01:15:02,640 --> 01:15:04,439 Speaker 5: both of them are the people we're going to fight 1524 01:15:04,520 --> 01:15:05,880 Speaker 5: on that side. We're not going to fight on the 1525 01:15:05,960 --> 01:15:08,959 Speaker 5: Chinese side. So that's why it's not really a straight comparison. 1526 01:15:09,080 --> 01:15:10,080 Speaker 5: Is at six eighteen. 1527 01:15:11,920 --> 01:15:14,919 Speaker 2: The Rural Report on Heather do for see Allen. 1528 01:15:15,320 --> 01:15:16,600 Speaker 5: Hi, host of the countries with us. 1529 01:15:16,640 --> 01:15:19,639 Speaker 22: Hello Jamie, Hello Heather, I've got a bone to pick 1530 01:15:19,720 --> 01:15:22,280 Speaker 22: with you.

No. 1533 01:15:28,320 --> 01:15:30,840 Speaker 5: Well, i've been flirting with him, is what's happened, and 1534 01:15:31,520 --> 01:15:33,720 Speaker 5: so we've decided we're going. But no, I never said 1535 01:15:33,720 --> 01:15:35,320 Speaker 5: that he's better than you. And if that's what he's 1536 01:15:35,360 --> 01:15:38,439 Speaker 5: told you, then we also know another thing about Hamish, 1537 01:15:38,479 --> 01:15:40,639 Speaker 5: which is that he tells a porky. But no, it's 1538 01:15:40,720 --> 01:15:42,640 Speaker 5: lovely to have you back, just back from holiday, go 1539 01:15:42,640 --> 01:15:43,560 Speaker 5: on straight to Gisbon, have you? 1540 01:15:44,560 --> 01:15:44,720 Speaker 4: Yeah? 1541 01:15:44,800 --> 01:15:44,960 Speaker 28: Yeah. 1542 01:15:45,000 --> 01:15:46,920 Speaker 22: While I was in the Auckland office today I had 1543 01:15:46,960 --> 01:15:51,120 Speaker 22: a brief family cuddle with yourself and cousin Barry, and 1544 01:15:51,200 --> 01:15:54,080 Speaker 22: then straight onto a plane for Gisbone. We're here for 1545 01:15:54,160 --> 01:15:55,840 Speaker 22: the can you believe. 1546 01:15:55,600 --> 01:15:56,000 Speaker 20: This, Heather? 1547 01:15:56,240 --> 01:15:59,960 Speaker 22: The one hundred and fiftieth Amp Show or Gisbone Show, 1548 01:16:00,000 --> 01:16:02,840 Speaker 22: who starts tomorrow.

And I've just checked into 1551 01:16:08,800 --> 01:16:12,400 Speaker 22: the port Side Hotel which is right by the waterfront 1552 01:16:12,400 --> 01:16:14,559 Speaker 22: here in Gisbon, and I must say I haven't been 1553 01:16:14,640 --> 01:16:18,240 Speaker 22: in Gisbon for years. What a beautiful town it is 1554 01:16:18,320 --> 01:16:21,680 Speaker 22: and the weather here today is absolutely stunning. We've been 1555 01:16:21,760 --> 01:16:24,000 Speaker 22: down to the show. We've set up at the Brand site. 1556 01:16:24,080 --> 01:16:27,320 Speaker 22: The Brand boys are very excited to have us there tomorrow. 1557 01:16:27,360 --> 01:16:30,639 Speaker 22: I think they're more excited that the Prime Minister Christopher 1558 01:16:30,720 --> 01:16:32,960 Speaker 22: Luxen's going to kick off the show from the Brant 1559 01:16:33,080 --> 01:16:36,800 Speaker 22: site tomorrow, which reminded me heather of a story going 1560 01:16:36,880 --> 01:16:38,680 Speaker 22: back to the two thousand and six. It might have 1561 01:16:38,720 --> 01:16:41,320 Speaker 22: been the last time I was in Gisbon. I did 1562 01:16:41,400 --> 01:16:44,519 Speaker 22: a drought farmer field day way up in the hills 1563 01:16:44,560 --> 01:16:47,040 Speaker 22: behind Gisbane, and there was a bloke by the name 1564 01:16:47,120 --> 01:16:50,000 Speaker 22: of John Key there who was the opposition leader at 1565 01:16:50,040 --> 01:16:52,720 Speaker 22: the time. He went to the top of this hill 1566 01:16:52,880 --> 01:16:56,240 Speaker 22: or mountain on the back of a quad four wheel 1567 01:16:56,280 --> 01:16:58,760 Speaker 22: that got covered in dust, and there was a helicopter 1568 01:16:58,840 --> 01:17:02,760 Speaker 22: there to take him back I think, to Napier Airport 1569 01:17:02,920 --> 01:17:05,679 Speaker 22: to go back, and there was four or five hundred 1570 01:17:05,720 --> 01:17:08,400 Speaker 22: farmers there for this trout event and he said to 1571 01:17:08,479 --> 01:17:12,080 Speaker 22: his people, I ain't going until I've been around every 1572 01:17:12,240 --> 01:17:14,479 Speaker 22: lener like big bales of hay and the farmers were 1573 01:17:14,520 --> 01:17:17,160 Speaker 22: having a beer and he went round and he worked. 1574 01:17:17,320 --> 01:17:20,280 Speaker 22: It wasn't a room, it was a huge open paddock 1575 01:17:20,360 --> 01:17:22,920 Speaker 22: with all these farmers having a stubby over a haybal 1576 01:17:23,320 --> 01:17:26,400 Speaker 22: and I thought, this guy's got it. He can really 1577 01:17:26,520 --> 01:17:28,679 Speaker 22: work a room. And of course a couple of years 1578 01:17:28,720 --> 01:17:30,920 Speaker 22: later he was Prime Minister. So it'll be interesting to 1579 01:17:30,960 --> 01:17:34,400 Speaker 22: see if Christopher Luxen can have that effect in Gisbon tomorrow. 1580 01:17:34,520 --> 01:17:35,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, she sets a work ethic, isn't it. 1581 01:17:36,000 --> 01:17:36,120 Speaker 2: Now? 1582 01:17:36,600 --> 01:17:38,400 Speaker 5: What do you make of these emissions targets read the 1583 01:17:38,439 --> 01:17:39,439 Speaker 5: me thing? What do you make of this? 1584 01:17:40,320 --> 01:17:40,519 Speaker 2: Well? 1585 01:17:40,600 --> 01:17:43,799 Speaker 22: I think it's good and sensible. It happened in my absence. 1586 01:17:43,840 --> 01:17:46,120 Speaker 22: I haven't fully caught up yet, but look, I think 1587 01:17:46,240 --> 01:17:48,880 Speaker 22: what is at fourteen to twenty four rather than twenty 1588 01:17:48,920 --> 01:17:52,560 Speaker 22: four to forty sevens just eminently sensible ag not in 1589 01:17:52,640 --> 01:17:55,200 Speaker 22: the ets. And I know that the Greenies and green 1590 01:17:55,320 --> 01:17:57,680 Speaker 22: Peace all are jumping up and down about this, but 1591 01:17:57,800 --> 01:17:59,840 Speaker 22: as an economy, we haven't got that much going for 1592 01:18:00,600 --> 01:18:03,719 Speaker 22: at the moment, so we just can't hamstring our biggest 1593 01:18:03,840 --> 01:18:08,080 Speaker 22: industry at forty seven percent as he walk at echinoa 1594 01:18:08,439 --> 01:18:09,679 Speaker 22: and all that sort of nonsense. 1595 01:18:09,800 --> 01:18:10,560 Speaker 4: Was proposing it. 1596 01:18:10,720 --> 01:18:13,040 Speaker 22: It just sort of shut down twenty percent of out 1597 01:18:13,080 --> 01:18:15,080 Speaker 22: sheet and beef farms and I think seven or eight 1598 01:18:15,120 --> 01:18:17,960 Speaker 22: percent of our dairy farmers. So forget about this very 1599 01:18:18,040 --> 01:18:19,679 Speaker 22: pragmatic approach from the government. 1600 01:18:20,080 --> 01:18:22,160 Speaker 2: I pat him on the back. 1601 01:18:22,200 --> 01:18:23,680 Speaker 22: I tipped my hat to them for that one. 1602 01:18:23,880 --> 01:18:24,080 Speaker 4: Yeah. 1603 01:18:24,080 --> 01:18:27,040 Speaker 5: Absolutely, Jamie, look after yourself.

He's of the Mobray family. Obviously, 1642 01:20:08,880 --> 01:20:10,920 Speaker 5: he's had to come out and publicly deny that he 1643 01:20:11,200 --> 01:20:14,120 Speaker 5: is the member of the wealthy key Wee family that's 1644 01:20:14,160 --> 01:20:18,439 Speaker 5: convicted of having extreme child abuse material. Apparently, rumors have 1645 01:20:18,520 --> 01:20:22,519 Speaker 5: been circulating on TikTok and various social media outlets claiming 1646 01:20:22,520 --> 01:20:25,760 Speaker 5: it's him. I have actually been told this too. It 1647 01:20:25,920 --> 01:20:29,240 Speaker 5: is not him. It is not Matt Mowbray. He's even 1648 01:20:29,280 --> 01:20:31,240 Speaker 5: had to provide to the Herald of Ministry of Justice 1649 01:20:31,280 --> 01:20:33,559 Speaker 5: document to confirm he's got no convictions on his record. 1650 01:20:33,560 --> 01:20:34,639 Speaker 5: I don't know why I had to do that, because 1651 01:20:34,640 --> 01:20:37,519 Speaker 5: the Herald knows it's not him, because they know who 1652 01:20:37,640 --> 01:20:39,920 Speaker 5: it is because they've been covering the case. I know 1653 01:20:40,000 --> 01:20:42,439 Speaker 5: who it is. It's not Matt Mowbray. And now if 1654 01:20:42,479 --> 01:20:44,120 Speaker 5: you've been following this, you know that he is the 1655 01:20:44,280 --> 01:20:46,240 Speaker 5: second rich lister who's had to do this, because the 1656 01:20:46,280 --> 01:20:47,960 Speaker 5: other one was Wayne Wright, who had to do it 1657 01:20:47,960 --> 01:20:49,360 Speaker 5: all the way back in August and come out and 1658 01:20:49,400 --> 01:20:53,320 Speaker 5: say because remember Grok Twitter's AI was like the creep 1659 01:20:53,439 --> 01:20:55,240 Speaker 5: is Wayne right? Well know the creep is also not 1660 01:20:55,360 --> 01:20:57,880 Speaker 5: Wayne right or Matt Mowbray is somebody else entirely. Now, 1661 01:20:58,000 --> 01:21:00,840 Speaker 5: this is the problem with suppressions because the suppressions like 1662 01:21:00,960 --> 01:21:03,439 Speaker 5: this cause because there aren't that many rich lists of 1663 01:21:03,479 --> 01:21:07,120 Speaker 5: family families in this country, right, So if you suppress 1664 01:21:07,160 --> 01:21:09,679 Speaker 5: who it actually is for very spurious reasons, by the way, 1665 01:21:10,000 --> 01:21:11,800 Speaker 5: in the age of social media, people are just gonna 1666 01:21:11,800 --> 01:21:14,160 Speaker 5: make it up and start naming people who it is 1667 01:21:14,200 --> 01:21:16,519 Speaker 5: clearly not so. I don't know, Judge, just might need 1668 01:21:16,600 --> 01:21:18,799 Speaker 5: to start thinking about this when they do the suppression. 1669 01:21:18,800 --> 01:21:21,360 Speaker 5: Suppression for good reason, fine, suppression for no good reason 1670 01:21:21,720 --> 01:21:24,080 Speaker 5: like this not so fine. Six twenty six. 1671 01:21:24,880 --> 01:21:27,639 Speaker 2: There's no business like show business. 1672 01:21:30,000 --> 01:21:30,280 Speaker 11: True. 1673 01:21:30,439 --> 01:21:32,960 Speaker 5: Whenneth Paltrow has revealed she wants to write a book, 1674 01:21:33,080 --> 01:21:35,479 Speaker 5: it's not a book about weird lifestyle things like vagina 1675 01:21:35,560 --> 01:21:38,120 Speaker 5: candles or goop things. This would be a book about 1676 01:21:38,160 --> 01:21:42,200 Speaker 5: conscious uncoupling, because she and Chris Martin famously consciously uncoupled 1677 01:21:42,200 --> 01:21:44,439 Speaker 5: a decade ago, and she told British Vogue she's so 1678 01:21:44,560 --> 01:21:46,240 Speaker 5: proud that she did that and that she lives it, 1679 01:21:46,320 --> 01:21:47,800 Speaker 5: and so many people have come up to her and 1680 01:21:47,920 --> 01:21:50,400 Speaker 5: thanked her for that and for helping to create that template, 1681 01:21:50,439 --> 01:21:51,680 Speaker 5: and this is what she said about love. 1682 01:21:51,880 --> 01:21:54,559 Speaker 19: I think when I was thirty, I still was very 1683 01:21:54,760 --> 01:21:58,280 Speaker 19: caught up in this idea that I had to earn love, 1684 01:22:00,240 --> 01:22:04,519 Speaker 19: that I wasn't just inherently lovable. I think that's something 1685 01:22:04,600 --> 01:22:08,880 Speaker 19: that I've been able to really work through, and now 1686 01:22:09,200 --> 01:22:13,400 Speaker 19: I feel that love is something that we just all deserve. 1687 01:22:13,600 --> 01:22:15,720 Speaker 19: We don't need to earn it. There doesn't have to 1688 01:22:15,800 --> 01:22:19,160 Speaker 19: be a carrot that we're dangling, you know, dangling in 1689 01:22:19,240 --> 01:22:21,280 Speaker 19: front of us, like we just each of us are 1690 01:22:21,400 --> 01:22:23,120 Speaker 19: just completely lovable. 1691 01:22:23,400 --> 01:22:27,160 Speaker 5: That's actually true. But interesting timing because the unofficial Gwyneth 1692 01:22:27,200 --> 01:22:29,519 Speaker 5: Big biography has just been published, written by a journalist 1693 01:22:29,560 --> 01:22:32,240 Speaker 5: called Amy Odell, and Gwyneth has nothing nice to say 1694 01:22:32,240 --> 01:22:35,439 Speaker 5: about the book. She says it was all rubbish. Yeah, 1695 01:22:35,960 --> 01:22:38,680 Speaker 5: so that's the update on Gwyneth. Now you know why 1696 01:22:38,720 --> 01:22:41,559 Speaker 5: she's writing a book anyway. Let's take the news. Sam 1697 01:22:41,640 --> 01:22:43,920 Speaker 5: Dickie with us on Amazon just a minute. 1698 01:22:47,840 --> 01:22:51,160 Speaker 2: Whether it's a micro microth or just plain economics. 1699 01:22:51,360 --> 01:22:54,559 Speaker 1: It's all on the Business Hour with Heather Duplic, Ellen 1700 01:22:54,720 --> 01:22:58,479 Speaker 1: can to Mes for insurance investments and Hueye Safer. 1701 01:22:58,680 --> 01:23:01,840 Speaker 2: You're in good hands. Use talk spy. Where it got 1702 01:23:02,040 --> 01:23:02,759 Speaker 2: US ever. 1703 01:23:06,280 --> 01:23:08,840 Speaker 5: Integrated with US out of the UK ten minutes time. 1704 01:23:09,560 --> 01:23:11,439 Speaker 5: ASP has put out a note on what it is 1705 01:23:11,520 --> 01:23:14,200 Speaker 5: picking for CPI for Q three, so it says Q 1706 01:23:14,400 --> 01:23:16,280 Speaker 5: three CPI is going to come in at one percent. 1707 01:23:16,360 --> 01:23:18,840 Speaker 5: That'll take the annual inflation rate to three point one percent. 1708 01:23:19,000 --> 01:23:21,920 Speaker 5: Three point one of course outside the target ban of 1709 01:23:21,960 --> 01:23:24,360 Speaker 5: one to three. Our CPI is out on Monday, so 1710 01:23:24,400 --> 01:23:26,360 Speaker 5: we'll keep an eye on that. Twenty four away from seven, 1711 01:23:26,760 --> 01:23:30,519 Speaker 5: Amazon has been massively scale scaling up its same day 1712 01:23:30,640 --> 01:23:32,880 Speaker 5: grocery delivery over the last few months, looking to be 1713 01:23:32,960 --> 01:23:35,599 Speaker 5: in about two and a half thousand US cities by 1714 01:23:35,720 --> 01:23:39,280 Speaker 5: year end. It's a strategic assault on our grocery market 1715 01:23:39,360 --> 01:23:42,719 Speaker 5: worth nine hundred billion dollars. Sam Dickey from Fisher Funds 1716 01:23:42,800 --> 01:23:45,240 Speaker 5: is with us to talk us through this. Hasam good 1717 01:23:45,280 --> 01:23:48,960 Speaker 5: eating he Sam. How does Amazon's move change the competitive landscape? 1718 01:23:49,000 --> 01:23:49,519 Speaker 5: Do you think. 1719 01:23:50,920 --> 01:23:51,120 Speaker 4: It is? 1720 01:23:51,320 --> 01:23:53,639 Speaker 33: Well, it's nailed everything else, hasn't It nailed the same 1721 01:23:53,720 --> 01:23:57,280 Speaker 33: day delivery of books in CDs, through iPhones and everything 1722 01:23:57,320 --> 01:24:01,040 Speaker 33: in between, and grocery is the holy partly because of 1723 01:24:01,080 --> 01:24:03,120 Speaker 33: the size of the market, like you said, nine hundred billion, 1724 01:24:03,560 --> 01:24:07,160 Speaker 33: but partly because it's the ultimate repeat purchase, we've all 1725 01:24:07,200 --> 01:24:08,840 Speaker 33: got to eat and it's. 1726 01:24:08,720 --> 01:24:09,479 Speaker 2: Been really hard. 1727 01:24:09,600 --> 01:24:12,800 Speaker 33: So delivering fresh groceries on the same day requires a 1728 01:24:13,040 --> 01:24:17,360 Speaker 33: really expensive, dense network of specialized refrigerated facilities, and this 1729 01:24:17,439 --> 01:24:19,680 Speaker 33: stuff perishes, so it has to be perfect. And we 1730 01:24:20,240 --> 01:24:24,000 Speaker 33: you and I have ultra low tolerance for soggy tomatoes, 1731 01:24:24,040 --> 01:24:26,000 Speaker 33: so we'd rather just go to the grocery store if it's. 1732 01:24:25,840 --> 01:24:26,360 Speaker 2: Not good enough. 1733 01:24:26,880 --> 01:24:29,920 Speaker 33: And the other thing is picking and packing. The groceries 1734 01:24:30,120 --> 01:24:32,600 Speaker 33: can cost a gross of nine bucks, So if you 1735 01:24:32,640 --> 01:24:35,000 Speaker 33: think about it on one hundred dollars average basket size 1736 01:24:35,040 --> 01:24:36,799 Speaker 33: in the US, that leaves no profit margin. 1737 01:24:37,400 --> 01:24:39,559 Speaker 2: So same day delivery as a game changer. 1738 01:24:39,800 --> 01:24:43,400 Speaker 33: It more or less replicates that instant gratification that you 1739 01:24:43,479 --> 01:24:45,120 Speaker 33: and I get when we go to the supermarket. 1740 01:24:46,080 --> 01:24:47,360 Speaker 5: Now, what do you think this is going to mean 1741 01:24:47,400 --> 01:24:50,160 Speaker 5: for the traditional supermarket chains and the smaller regional players 1742 01:24:50,160 --> 01:24:51,840 Speaker 5: and everybody who's already doing this stuff. 1743 01:24:53,200 --> 01:24:56,919 Speaker 33: Well, Wall Street is describing the situation as guerrilla warfare, 1744 01:24:57,680 --> 01:25:00,800 Speaker 33: and so Amazon is leveraging it's sort of massive one 1745 01:25:01,360 --> 01:25:05,599 Speaker 33: kart advantage over these other guys, So the consumers can 1746 01:25:05,800 --> 01:25:10,360 Speaker 33: buy three hundred and fifty million other Amazon products and 1747 01:25:10,600 --> 01:25:13,200 Speaker 33: their groceriy. So this has kind of devastating to companies 1748 01:25:13,240 --> 01:25:17,800 Speaker 33: like Instacart, who just deliver groceries, or supermarket Kroger, who 1749 01:25:17,960 --> 01:25:20,519 Speaker 33: just sells groceries. They can't leverage that other scale of 1750 01:25:20,600 --> 01:25:24,519 Speaker 33: buying all the other electronics alongside it, so they what 1751 01:25:24,560 --> 01:25:26,840 Speaker 33: does that mean? It means they can't match Amazon on price, 1752 01:25:26,880 --> 01:25:29,000 Speaker 33: and already, since this happened a couple of months ago, 1753 01:25:29,200 --> 01:25:34,400 Speaker 33: Amazon's prices are seven percent below Walmart, sixteen percent below Kroger, 1754 01:25:34,600 --> 01:25:38,400 Speaker 33: and seventeen percent cheaper than Albertson's, which is another supermarket 1755 01:25:38,560 --> 01:25:41,680 Speaker 33: chain and so far so good too. So they're these 1756 01:25:41,760 --> 01:25:45,160 Speaker 33: low prices are meaning they're taking volume market share. So 1757 01:25:45,800 --> 01:25:48,559 Speaker 33: early pilots show that seventy five percent of users were 1758 01:25:48,640 --> 01:25:51,599 Speaker 33: first time Amazon grocery buyers, so they've been buying from 1759 01:25:51,600 --> 01:25:54,639 Speaker 33: someone else before and they will return twice as often, 1760 01:25:54,880 --> 01:25:57,400 Speaker 33: So they're using that massive scale to take market share 1761 01:25:57,400 --> 01:25:57,720 Speaker 33: as well. 1762 01:25:57,880 --> 01:26:01,000 Speaker 5: Now you've already got players doing grocery delivers as well, 1763 01:26:01,400 --> 01:26:03,759 Speaker 5: or food deliveries, You've got Uber Eats, you got Instacart, 1764 01:26:03,840 --> 01:26:04,560 Speaker 5: door Dash and so on. 1765 01:26:04,640 --> 01:26:07,760 Speaker 33: So what about then, Yeah, well Instacart sort of fell 1766 01:26:07,760 --> 01:26:09,479 Speaker 33: out of bed on the day this was announced and 1767 01:26:09,560 --> 01:26:13,360 Speaker 33: hasn't recovered since because they're doing nothing but just delivering 1768 01:26:13,400 --> 01:26:16,719 Speaker 33: groceries and that that is a tough, low margin business, 1769 01:26:16,760 --> 01:26:19,000 Speaker 33: particularly when you can't leverage all those other products across 1770 01:26:19,000 --> 01:26:23,280 Speaker 33: it as well, like amazonas now Instacart and sorry, door 1771 01:26:23,360 --> 01:26:26,160 Speaker 33: Dash and uber eats. They obviously dominated the delivery of 1772 01:26:26,200 --> 01:26:28,479 Speaker 33: takeaways as being no issue there, but they had both 1773 01:26:28,560 --> 01:26:32,559 Speaker 33: expanded into into grocery delivery to sort of further bols 1774 01:26:32,600 --> 01:26:33,160 Speaker 33: to their revenues. 1775 01:26:33,200 --> 01:26:34,479 Speaker 2: But here's the rub that they're just. 1776 01:26:34,600 --> 01:26:38,920 Speaker 33: Intermediaries charging grocers sort of fifteen to twenty five percent commissions, 1777 01:26:39,680 --> 01:26:43,559 Speaker 33: while Amazon is the platform, the logistics network, and often 1778 01:26:43,640 --> 01:26:46,920 Speaker 33: the grocery the product grocery supplier as well. So door 1779 01:26:47,000 --> 01:26:49,080 Speaker 33: Dash and uber eats can't compete with that scale and 1780 01:26:49,120 --> 01:26:50,680 Speaker 33: full integration of Amazon. 1781 01:26:50,600 --> 01:26:52,599 Speaker 5: Right, So what do you reckon this means for investors? Sam? 1782 01:26:54,120 --> 01:26:57,200 Speaker 33: I think it competitors without that scale, and it seems 1783 01:26:57,240 --> 01:26:59,839 Speaker 33: like the holy grail is finally being found or cracked. 1784 01:27:00,800 --> 01:27:04,640 Speaker 33: Competitors without that scale, soo Instacart regional grocers that they 1785 01:27:04,680 --> 01:27:08,120 Speaker 33: will bleed and it's good for consumers of course. Over there, 1786 01:27:08,120 --> 01:27:10,600 Speaker 33: I mean groceries are just going to get cheaper and 1787 01:27:11,520 --> 01:27:13,599 Speaker 33: the other thing is you should look for, and we've 1788 01:27:13,640 --> 01:27:17,599 Speaker 33: seen this in Europe, is these smaller grocers and regional grocers, 1789 01:27:17,640 --> 01:27:21,639 Speaker 33: even national grosers. As they face margin pressure, you'll see 1790 01:27:21,720 --> 01:27:24,120 Speaker 33: more sort of companies taking over other companies. And we 1791 01:27:24,160 --> 01:27:28,200 Speaker 33: saw that in Europe when that sort of grocery delivery 1792 01:27:28,240 --> 01:27:30,920 Speaker 33: market took off. Grocery m and A or mergers and 1793 01:27:30,960 --> 01:27:34,320 Speaker 33: acquisitions are up thirty one percent since then. And as always, 1794 01:27:34,360 --> 01:27:36,720 Speaker 33: the other thing is Amazon's actually playing a different game. 1795 01:27:36,800 --> 01:27:39,719 Speaker 33: It's not really that interested in the grocery margin itself. 1796 01:27:41,520 --> 01:27:44,599 Speaker 33: The kicker here is that Prime members, of which there's 1797 01:27:44,600 --> 01:27:46,680 Speaker 33: sort of two hundred million households in the US who 1798 01:27:46,720 --> 01:27:48,720 Speaker 33: are Prime members who pay one hundred and thirty nine 1799 01:27:48,760 --> 01:27:52,519 Speaker 33: bucks a year for all the Prime benefits, so the video, 1800 01:27:52,760 --> 01:27:56,040 Speaker 33: but also free delivery, et cetera. They get free same 1801 01:27:56,120 --> 01:27:58,600 Speaker 33: day grocery delivery. So this is really the game for 1802 01:27:58,680 --> 01:28:01,920 Speaker 33: Amazon here is about locking those really valuable members in 1803 01:28:02,000 --> 01:28:04,519 Speaker 33: and making them stickier, and in the process they're going 1804 01:28:04,560 --> 01:28:07,200 Speaker 33: to sort of destroy a few grosses along the way. 1805 01:28:07,840 --> 01:28:09,599 Speaker 5: Interesting stuff. Hey, thank you very much. Sam, We'll talk 1806 01:28:09,600 --> 01:28:11,040 Speaker 5: to you in a week's time. Sam Dickey, a Fisher 1807 01:28:11,080 --> 01:28:12,360 Speaker 5: Funds nineteen away from seven. 1808 01:28:13,000 --> 01:28:15,559 Speaker 2: Heather Duplessy Allen Heather, I've been watching the news. 1809 01:28:15,560 --> 01:28:17,800 Speaker 5: I see Jenny Shipley goes to the same optometrist as 1810 01:28:17,880 --> 01:28:20,400 Speaker 5: John Kerwin and Auckland. Is this in Auckland? Look yes? 1811 01:28:20,960 --> 01:28:23,000 Speaker 5: In short, there's no way to say this other than yes, 1812 01:28:23,479 --> 01:28:27,600 Speaker 5: you should see Barry Soaper's new glasses. So we in 1813 01:28:27,720 --> 01:28:30,760 Speaker 5: fact today Jamie McKay, because of course you know, Jamie 1814 01:28:30,840 --> 01:28:33,240 Speaker 5: McKay doesn't go in for this Auckland look nonsense. He's 1815 01:28:33,240 --> 01:28:36,080 Speaker 5: a man of the farm from Southland. He turned up 1816 01:28:36,120 --> 01:28:38,760 Speaker 5: and he was like, ah, yes, yes. We had a 1817 01:28:38,840 --> 01:28:40,800 Speaker 5: discussion that I cannot repeat on air for fear of 1818 01:28:40,880 --> 01:28:46,559 Speaker 5: the BSA commenting on the glasses and Jamie's observation was well, 1819 01:28:46,640 --> 01:28:49,200 Speaker 5: at least they're not as bad as Jakay's as in 1820 01:28:49,280 --> 01:28:51,960 Speaker 5: John Kerwin, so it's all of the same. Vein Now 1821 01:28:52,640 --> 01:28:55,240 Speaker 5: Trade Me founder Sam Morgan has given a speech to 1822 01:28:55,479 --> 01:28:57,800 Speaker 5: a philanthropic event here in Auckland where it was just 1823 01:28:57,920 --> 01:29:01,160 Speaker 5: full of glasses like that made some really interesting observations 1824 01:29:01,240 --> 01:29:04,360 Speaker 5: about having a lot of money. He reckons like he's 1825 01:29:04,360 --> 01:29:07,040 Speaker 5: spending his money on philanthropy largely. He reckons there's no 1826 01:29:07,240 --> 01:29:10,880 Speaker 5: logical alternative to doing that. If you're uber wealthy, he says, 1827 01:29:11,040 --> 01:29:12,920 Speaker 5: you've only got two other choices. It's like you've got 1828 01:29:12,960 --> 01:29:16,000 Speaker 5: three choices available to you, philanthropy, or you're buried with 1829 01:29:16,080 --> 01:29:18,000 Speaker 5: your money, or you give your kids to your money. 1830 01:29:18,000 --> 01:29:19,240 Speaker 5: You give your money to your kids and then you 1831 01:29:19,320 --> 01:29:21,320 Speaker 5: mess them up, which is kind of when you think 1832 01:29:21,320 --> 01:29:24,000 Speaker 5: about it, actually quite true. Anyway, he reckons, you may 1833 01:29:24,000 --> 01:29:26,040 Speaker 5: as well give it away because you're gonna lose it anyway, 1834 01:29:26,080 --> 01:29:30,639 Speaker 5: Because he reckons, data shows that after three generations, ninety 1835 01:29:30,720 --> 01:29:33,960 Speaker 5: five percent of wealthy families are no longer wealthy families, 1836 01:29:34,400 --> 01:29:38,400 Speaker 5: mainly because of things like multiple divorces, of trust fund babies, 1837 01:29:38,960 --> 01:29:42,519 Speaker 5: and incompetent investing as well. So if the money is 1838 01:29:42,560 --> 01:29:44,280 Speaker 5: going to go anyway, why don't you just do something 1839 01:29:44,320 --> 01:29:46,360 Speaker 5: worthwhile with it? So he reckons, the wealthy should be 1840 01:29:46,400 --> 01:29:48,840 Speaker 5: giving you away two, three, four five percent of their 1841 01:29:49,000 --> 01:29:51,800 Speaker 5: net worth every single year. He uses it to save 1842 01:29:51,840 --> 01:29:55,160 Speaker 5: and improve lives in India and Africa. He also says, 1843 01:29:55,360 --> 01:29:57,680 Speaker 5: because once you uber wealthy, you get letters of the 1844 01:29:57,760 --> 01:30:00,960 Speaker 5: uber wealthy club, and he reckons that he now that 1845 01:30:01,040 --> 01:30:03,760 Speaker 5: he's spoken to a lot of other uberwealthy people He's 1846 01:30:03,880 --> 01:30:07,040 Speaker 5: reached a conclusion, which is that many rich people seem 1847 01:30:07,080 --> 01:30:09,120 Speaker 5: to think that they are immortal and they are holding 1848 01:30:09,160 --> 01:30:12,280 Speaker 5: wealth as if they are going to live forever. I thought, hmm, 1849 01:30:13,680 --> 01:30:15,280 Speaker 5: but that's what it looked like from the outside. But 1850 01:30:15,280 --> 01:30:16,920 Speaker 5: I'm glad it looks like that from the inside too. 1851 01:30:17,000 --> 01:30:18,400 Speaker 5: Seventeen away from seven. 1852 01:30:18,479 --> 01:30:21,240 Speaker 2: Everything from SMEs to the big corporates. 1853 01:30:21,479 --> 01:30:25,479 Speaker 1: The Business Hour with Heather Duplic Ellen and Mas for 1854 01:30:25,640 --> 01:30:29,879 Speaker 1: Insurance Investments and Kuey Saber you're in good hands news. 1855 01:30:29,760 --> 01:30:30,920 Speaker 2: Talk, sa'd be hither. 1856 01:30:31,000 --> 01:30:33,639 Speaker 5: I'm happy Toss be messed up.

Loving the fact that everyone's calling for Andrew 1863 01:30:47,280 --> 01:30:48,920 Speaker 5: to be stripped of as dukedom. But it's not going 1864 01:30:49,000 --> 01:30:49,479 Speaker 5: to happen, is it. 1865 01:30:50,840 --> 01:30:53,120 Speaker 9: Well, there is a mechanism, and apparently it was done 1866 01:30:53,160 --> 01:30:56,400 Speaker 9: in World War One when some dukes decided that they 1867 01:30:56,439 --> 01:30:59,639 Speaker 9: would fight for Germany rather than fight for the United Kingdom, 1868 01:30:59,720 --> 01:31:03,560 Speaker 9: so they managed to take away duke titles or dukedoms 1869 01:31:04,479 --> 01:31:07,600 Speaker 9: over a century ago when the Germans were involved, and 1870 01:31:07,720 --> 01:31:10,439 Speaker 9: you wonder who's the bigger threat nowadays? You know, Andrew 1871 01:31:10,520 --> 01:31:13,960 Speaker 9: has destroyed his own reputation, and I think Charles and 1872 01:31:14,040 --> 01:31:17,439 Speaker 9: his advisors are very very much aware that this man 1873 01:31:17,800 --> 01:31:20,880 Speaker 9: is bad news, and they've known for a long time now. 1874 01:31:21,240 --> 01:31:23,160 Speaker 9: The reason he's back in the front page is today 1875 01:31:23,240 --> 01:31:25,559 Speaker 9: there are calls for the title to be taken away, 1876 01:31:25,640 --> 01:31:28,160 Speaker 9: the dukedom. He's also a member of the Knights Garter. 1877 01:31:28,560 --> 01:31:30,120 Speaker 9: So if you know it's the email he sent to 1878 01:31:30,200 --> 01:31:33,160 Speaker 9: Epstein in twenty eleven saying we'll play again some more 1879 01:31:33,240 --> 01:31:36,400 Speaker 9: soon with four exclamation marks. What does that mean? You know, 1880 01:31:36,640 --> 01:31:40,240 Speaker 9: poor Virginia Giuffrey, her family, everything she has been through. 1881 01:31:40,680 --> 01:31:42,920 Speaker 9: There is a mechanism available. I think the only thing 1882 01:31:43,000 --> 01:31:46,439 Speaker 9: they can't take away is the word prince because he 1883 01:31:46,560 --> 01:31:50,040 Speaker 9: is the King's brother. But I think Andrew ultimately is 1884 01:31:50,120 --> 01:31:51,960 Speaker 9: going to be stripped of absolutely everything. 1885 01:31:52,160 --> 01:31:54,920 Speaker 5: Do you think so? Because the argument is, inda this 1886 01:31:55,080 --> 01:31:56,760 Speaker 5: is the German and I've spent a lot of time 1887 01:31:56,800 --> 01:31:59,760 Speaker 5: talking about this. The argument is you can strip him right, 1888 01:32:00,040 --> 01:32:02,080 Speaker 5: it gets rid of that problem. But then what you 1889 01:32:02,200 --> 01:32:04,639 Speaker 5: have is a guy who hasn't He doesn't have any 1890 01:32:04,840 --> 01:32:08,280 Speaker 5: support networks anymore, so he goes rogue like Harry. So actually, 1891 01:32:08,720 --> 01:32:11,000 Speaker 5: for Charles, like there is a point at which Charles 1892 01:32:11,080 --> 01:32:12,680 Speaker 5: needs to give him just enough to kind of keep 1893 01:32:12,760 --> 01:32:15,680 Speaker 5: him keeping him, to keep him behaving properly, don't you 1894 01:32:15,760 --> 01:32:17,080 Speaker 5: think no? 1895 01:32:17,320 --> 01:32:20,080 Speaker 9: Because the problem with that argument is Harry has half 1896 01:32:20,120 --> 01:32:24,320 Speaker 9: a brain. Andrew has none. Okay, Andrew has no brain whatsoever. 1897 01:32:24,560 --> 01:32:27,840 Speaker 9: He is just he reeks of entitlement. I've actually had 1898 01:32:27,880 --> 01:32:30,720 Speaker 9: dinner with the guy. He's one of the dullest men 1899 01:32:31,000 --> 01:32:34,800 Speaker 9: you could be anywhere near. And I think my suspicion 1900 01:32:34,960 --> 01:32:38,320 Speaker 9: is the royal family at the highest level and the 1901 01:32:38,479 --> 01:32:42,840 Speaker 9: UK establishment know there are even more dangerous emails out there. 1902 01:32:43,120 --> 01:32:44,720 Speaker 9: I think what we're seeing is just the tip of 1903 01:32:44,760 --> 01:32:45,240 Speaker 9: the surface. 1904 01:32:45,360 --> 01:32:47,240 Speaker 5: Well, how does he make his money if they strip him? 1905 01:32:49,160 --> 01:32:51,000 Speaker 9: Well, he managed to find an awful lot of money 1906 01:32:51,040 --> 01:32:55,080 Speaker 9: to pay off Virginia Dufrey twelve million pounds starting twenty 1907 01:32:55,120 --> 01:32:57,360 Speaker 9: four million dollars then, z I mean, you know there 1908 01:32:57,479 --> 01:33:00,920 Speaker 9: was talk of money coming from China. Everything he has 1909 01:33:01,000 --> 01:33:03,759 Speaker 9: done there with the pitch at the Palace event, clearly 1910 01:33:04,160 --> 01:33:07,160 Speaker 9: there are revenue streams. He's not on his Uppers, But 1911 01:33:07,200 --> 01:33:09,080 Speaker 9: I think Charles wants him out of that big house. 1912 01:33:09,400 --> 01:33:11,439 Speaker 9: He ain't going to be invited for Christmas ever. Again, 1913 01:33:11,479 --> 01:33:13,120 Speaker 9: you're not going to see him on the balcony, and 1914 01:33:13,240 --> 01:33:14,960 Speaker 9: I think they're hurting him where it hurts the most, 1915 01:33:15,040 --> 01:33:19,000 Speaker 9: the whole kind of reputation. He thrives on this pomp 1916 01:33:19,120 --> 01:33:22,080 Speaker 9: and ceremony and that ain't ever happening again. 1917 01:33:22,200 --> 01:33:25,120 Speaker 5: Wow, okay, right, interesting to see how that plays out. 1918 01:33:25,160 --> 01:33:25,280 Speaker 22: Then. 1919 01:33:25,360 --> 01:33:27,519 Speaker 5: Now, now what happened to Higgsith's playing? Do we know 1920 01:33:27,600 --> 01:33:28,400 Speaker 5: how it got the crack? 1921 01:33:29,800 --> 01:33:31,160 Speaker 9: We don't know how it got the crack, but it 1922 01:33:31,280 --> 01:33:34,400 Speaker 9: led to depressurization in the cabin very very quickly. So 1923 01:33:34,479 --> 01:33:36,679 Speaker 9: it was a military version of the Boeing seven five 1924 01:33:36,880 --> 01:33:40,000 Speaker 9: seven on his way back from a NATO meeting in Belgium, 1925 01:33:40,080 --> 01:33:42,080 Speaker 9: and we're now learning that he had to land very 1926 01:33:42,240 --> 01:33:45,920 Speaker 9: very quickly in England at an RAF base, RAF Mildenhall. 1927 01:33:46,280 --> 01:33:49,240 Speaker 9: Now I've been there. It's pretty much an American air base. 1928 01:33:49,280 --> 01:33:52,200 Speaker 9: We've filmed in there before, so in name only is 1929 01:33:52,240 --> 01:33:55,320 Speaker 9: it really ORAF. It's mostly American air personnel. So he's 1930 01:33:55,360 --> 01:33:58,280 Speaker 9: with his own people, treated very very well. And then 1931 01:33:58,320 --> 01:34:01,320 Speaker 9: he took the social media very quickly to say journey 1932 01:34:01,360 --> 01:34:01,960 Speaker 9: back underway. 1933 01:34:02,040 --> 01:34:02,479 Speaker 4: Thank god. 1934 01:34:02,600 --> 01:34:06,040 Speaker 9: So no damage done and his own people patched up. 1935 01:34:06,040 --> 01:34:07,240 Speaker 9: He's playing very very quickly. 1936 01:34:07,320 --> 01:34:08,920 Speaker 5: Oh that's very good news. And what's going over the 1937 01:34:09,040 --> 01:34:10,120 Speaker 5: RSH presidential election? 1938 01:34:11,400 --> 01:34:13,360 Speaker 9: Yes, so I'm in Ireland at the moment, I mean Cork. 1939 01:34:13,400 --> 01:34:17,479 Speaker 9: We're filming my TV show Roundtable using the presidential election 1940 01:34:17,600 --> 01:34:19,639 Speaker 9: as a peg to look at lots of different aspects 1941 01:34:19,680 --> 01:34:22,400 Speaker 9: of Irish life at the moment and how people are feeling. 1942 01:34:22,600 --> 01:34:26,200 Speaker 9: So next Friday there will be a presidential election. Michael 1943 01:34:26,280 --> 01:34:30,400 Speaker 9: D Higgins is stepping aside after fourteen years, very popular, 1944 01:34:30,560 --> 01:34:35,040 Speaker 9: charismatic and respected man. However, the candidates to replace him, 1945 01:34:35,120 --> 01:34:38,479 Speaker 9: there are two left in the race still, Catherine Connolly 1946 01:34:38,520 --> 01:34:42,160 Speaker 9: who's a very left wing independent lady Heather Humphreys, who're 1947 01:34:42,600 --> 01:34:44,840 Speaker 9: more of a conservative really from one of the main 1948 01:34:44,960 --> 01:34:45,960 Speaker 9: establishment parties. 1949 01:34:46,360 --> 01:34:47,120 Speaker 2: They're on the ballot. 1950 01:34:47,520 --> 01:34:49,640 Speaker 9: They're the only two candidates still in the race. The 1951 01:34:49,800 --> 01:34:53,479 Speaker 9: problem is the ballot paper was printed weeks ago and 1952 01:34:53,600 --> 01:34:56,840 Speaker 9: a Gaelic football manager from Dublin called Jim Gavin, who 1953 01:34:57,080 --> 01:35:00,320 Speaker 9: was in the race has pulled out over a pretty 1954 01:35:00,560 --> 01:35:04,200 Speaker 9: landlord tenant scandal from twenty years ago. His name is 1955 01:35:04,320 --> 01:35:06,800 Speaker 9: still on the ballot paper, and a lot of people 1956 01:35:06,840 --> 01:35:10,759 Speaker 9: are so disillusioned with politics, pollutions and life in general 1957 01:35:10,840 --> 01:35:13,479 Speaker 9: and cost of living.
