1 00:00:02,040 --> 00:00:05,440 Speaker 1: Dressing the newsmakers to get the real story. It's Heather 2 00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:09,000 Speaker 1: duper c Ellen Drive with One New Zealand to coverage 3 00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:11,240 Speaker 1: like no one else news doorgs B. 4 00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:16,200 Speaker 2: Hartter Noon, Welcome to the show. Coming up today, more 5 00:00:16,280 --> 00:00:19,840 Speaker 2: questions on the India FDA, this time about private TIEWII 6 00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:22,599 Speaker 2: investment into India. Chris Hapkins, Labour Party leader on that 7 00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:26,640 Speaker 2: after five Freightways on their fantastic results, and former Warrior 8 00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:29,400 Speaker 2: Kevin Campion on the State of Origin coming to eden Park. 9 00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:31,600 Speaker 1: Heather duper Cy Allen, Well. 10 00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:33,360 Speaker 2: Given how much of a teas we've had about the 11 00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:36,239 Speaker 2: eden Park news today, it's completely understandable if the excitement 12 00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:38,640 Speaker 2: levels aren't where they should be. But let's be clear, 13 00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:41,800 Speaker 2: this is really big news on two fronts. The first one, 14 00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:44,159 Speaker 2: obviously is the State of Origin game. I mean, this 15 00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:46,240 Speaker 2: is the first time since nineteen ninety seven that Ossie 16 00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:48,080 Speaker 2: has led a State of O game out of the country. 17 00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:51,080 Speaker 2: It's the first time ever that it's coming to New Zealand. 18 00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:53,680 Speaker 2: We are a very big rugby league nation and that game, 19 00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:55,960 Speaker 2: even if it kecks off at some ridiculous time like 20 00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:58,279 Speaker 2: nine thirty or ten in the evening, will sell out 21 00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:00,720 Speaker 2: pretty quickly, which means I don't know how much international 22 00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:03,120 Speaker 2: money it's actually going to bring in, because surely we're 23 00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:05,560 Speaker 2: going to snap out the tickets ourselves before any Aussies 24 00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:08,600 Speaker 2: can get it. But it'll be an event, and if 25 00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:10,960 Speaker 2: that gets New Zealand a step closer to being considered 26 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,120 Speaker 2: as a serious place for a second team in the 27 00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:15,399 Speaker 2: comp that can't be a bad thing, can it. The 28 00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:17,919 Speaker 2: second announcement, though, I think, is the one that's actually 29 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:20,199 Speaker 2: bigger when we get very fuzzy about the State of Origin. 30 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:22,240 Speaker 2: But I think the rules around eden Park are bigger 31 00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 2: because it's bigger than one single event. It's longer term. 32 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 2: It was always stupid that eden Park couldn't host a 33 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:31,319 Speaker 2: sporting event on a Sunday, and that sports events on 34 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 2: a weekday had to be wrapped up by nine point thirty, 35 00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:35,640 Speaker 2: which would have absolutely put a big no on the 36 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:37,640 Speaker 2: State of Origin game, which is played on a Wednesday. 37 00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 2: It was stupid that eden Park could only ever have 38 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:42,680 Speaker 2: twelve concerts a year, and that you were only ever 39 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:45,800 Speaker 2: allowed to have six artists doing those twelve concerts, and 40 00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:47,920 Speaker 2: that any one month could only have four concerts and 41 00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 2: no more than that. It's now twelve big concerts twenty 42 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 2: medium sized concerts. Any day is okay up to eight hours. 43 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,200 Speaker 2: Don't always need to keep consent to say yes. I 44 00:01:57,320 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 2: understand that there are residents to be considered, and I'm 45 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:02,280 Speaker 2: ex extremely grateful to so many of them that they 46 00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:05,240 Speaker 2: are so generous. But this was necessary if we don't 47 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 2: want Eden Park to be empty most days of the 48 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,720 Speaker 2: week just waiting for a ratepayer bailout like the days 49 00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:12,240 Speaker 2: of old. If we wanted to actually earn its way, 50 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 2: then this is the way to do it. And this 51 00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:15,040 Speaker 2: has not come a day too soon. 52 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:20,240 Speaker 1: Heather du per c Ellen, nineteen ninety As. 53 00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:22,519 Speaker 2: A text number standard text fees applying as I say, 54 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:25,400 Speaker 2: Kevin Campion will be with us after half past five. 55 00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:28,720 Speaker 2: Now christ Church has so many airbnbs that the market 56 00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:30,520 Speaker 2: is actually struggling to keep up. It sounds like it's 57 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 2: absolutely swamped by them. According to the analytics business air DNA, 58 00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 2: the average per night yield for airbnbs in christ Church 59 00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 2: fell slightly last year, and that's probably because the number 60 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 2: of available Airbnb properties in the city went up by 61 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 2: nineteen percent in twenty twenty four, demand only went up 62 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 2: by five percent. Mike Blackburn is a property market analyst 63 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,920 Speaker 2: and with US high Mike Hiever, basically a case of 64 00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:55,760 Speaker 2: supply and demand, right, too many Airbnbs there. 65 00:02:56,680 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 3: Look absolutely, christ Church is currently build up almost seventy 66 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 3: to eighty percent of all new residential construction as part 67 00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:12,280 Speaker 3: of a multi unit development, and the vast majority of 68 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:16,600 Speaker 3: these things are being marketed to investors, particularly in that 69 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 3: AIRB and B market. And of course, the underlying story 70 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:22,520 Speaker 3: just goes back to what you were saying about Eden Parker, 71 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:25,799 Speaker 3: is that everyone's talking about the new stadium when it's 72 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:28,400 Speaker 3: going to open and the amount of traffic that it's 73 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:32,360 Speaker 3: going to drive. But we've been hearing this story from 74 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:37,080 Speaker 3: developers for several years and the number of units that 75 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 3: are being delivered into that market just continues to increase. 76 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 2: What are you saying people are building future Airbnbs around 77 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 2: the stadium? 78 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 3: Are they absolutely That's exactly how they're being marketed. 79 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 2: And Mike, are they actually building houses with a view 80 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 2: to turning it into an Airbnb? Nothing else? Like that's 81 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 2: the primary point of building this particular house. 82 00:03:57,800 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 4: That's correct. 83 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 3: There are several developers in christ and of course that 84 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 3: the thing is Heather, is that in addition to tracking 85 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:08,120 Speaker 3: building consent numbers and population growth. One of the things 86 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 3: that I look at is the median size of dwellings 87 00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 3: that are being delivered. I'm seeing some units and christ 88 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:19,840 Speaker 3: Church that are that are being sold into the market 89 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:23,920 Speaker 3: at thirty nine square meters with no car park. And 90 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 3: these these are units that are part of twenty or 91 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 3: thirty units in a block, and they're specifically being built 92 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:36,120 Speaker 3: and being marketed and sold as AIRB and B units. 93 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:38,480 Speaker 2: I see. Okay, now that doesn't seem to me the 94 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:41,480 Speaker 2: smartest move because it doesn't leave you many options, does it. 95 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 2: I mean, who wants that? I don't know how many 96 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 2: people actually want to rental or own a property that 97 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:46,919 Speaker 2: doesn't have a car park. 98 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:52,119 Speaker 3: Well again, if you're well, there's there's there's two parts 99 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 3: to the answer to that. Firstly, following the earthquakes, christ 100 00:04:56,600 --> 00:05:01,920 Speaker 3: Church lost most of its signals Afican hotel accommodation and 101 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:06,359 Speaker 3: so therefore over the last seven eight nine years we 102 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:11,080 Speaker 3: have been short of hotel accommodation and so that's one 103 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:15,560 Speaker 3: of the reasons why AIRB and b's have flourished so 104 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:19,560 Speaker 3: rapidly in christ Church. But in what I've been seeing 105 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 3: for the last couple of years, is that the rate 106 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 3: in which we're building these things, and this was supported 107 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:30,200 Speaker 3: by the aired DNA data that you talked about, is 108 00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:33,839 Speaker 3: that the number of AIRB and B units is increasing 109 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:39,560 Speaker 3: significantly faster than the night stay accommodation. And unfortunately, Heather, 110 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:41,720 Speaker 3: I think there's going to be some tears. 111 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:44,360 Speaker 2: Now, tell me why you're not feeling as optimistic as 112 00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:48,160 Speaker 2: the developers are about the pull of Takaha the stadium. 113 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 3: Well, look, it's simply been the fact that we have 114 00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:54,440 Speaker 3: built so many of these things for such a period 115 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 3: of time. One of my market commentary pieces that I 116 00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,839 Speaker 3: wrote a couple of months back was entitled how many 117 00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,479 Speaker 3: is too many? And when you simply look at this 118 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:07,039 Speaker 3: from from a business point of view, notwithstanding when I 119 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:11,040 Speaker 3: talk to real estate agents and property managers that they're 120 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 3: actually seeing a decrease in the actual night stay accommodation 121 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:19,920 Speaker 3: and as a result, we're also seeing a drop off 122 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:24,839 Speaker 3: in the actual amount of revenue that AIRB and B 123 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:28,520 Speaker 3: operators can actually charge. And that's just simply market supply 124 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 3: and demand. The more units that there are given a 125 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 3: limited night amount of night stay accommodation, everyone at the 126 00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:39,480 Speaker 3: end of the day is going to see a lower 127 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 3: return on investment. 128 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 2: Now, now listen, Mike, it's good to talk to you. 129 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:45,279 Speaker 2: I really appreciate your time. That's Mike Blackburn, property market 130 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 2: analyst Heather congratulate by. Can I just say, remember how 131 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 2: I put a ban on myself with the airbnbs. I've 132 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,160 Speaker 2: violated it. I haven't actually stayed in an Airbnb yet, 133 00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 2: but I have booked an Airbnb for March. So I'll 134 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 2: come back to you and see whether it consider it 135 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:03,280 Speaker 2: a testing of the water again. Well, I'm going to 136 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:06,280 Speaker 2: have it. I'm having a forced separation from Airbnb. We're 137 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:07,600 Speaker 2: going to go out on a date in March and 138 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 2: see if it works for us. Here the congratulations to 139 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 2: the Blues for an amazing family event and game at 140 00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 2: Eden Park on Saturday night. But you won't admit that. Well, 141 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 2: I wasn't there. I was minding the children. But it's 142 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:21,640 Speaker 2: a good time at eden Park. I go to eden 143 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 2: Park quite a lot. 144 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:22,600 Speaker 5: I just go. 145 00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 2: I just don't. Actually, I've been honest with you about this. 146 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 2: I don't watch the rugby. I just turn around and 147 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 2: talk to everybody else in the corporate box and have 148 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 2: a good time with them.

And 152 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 2: if freightways starts to pick up, it means people are 153 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 2: shifting parcels, it means people are selling things. It means 154 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 2: there's money to spend. It's a good sign. 155 00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 4: Right. 156 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 2: So the half year results have come out and it 157 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 2: is looking good.

Hello Heather, Do you think SOLGP is 176 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 2: too unsafe? 177 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 6: No, but I think they do need to look at 178 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:52,240 Speaker 6: their at their safety protocols. Obviously, after what happened on 179 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:55,760 Speaker 6: Saturday afternoon with the Black Falls colliding with the French team, 180 00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 6: it seemed to me either to be a symptom of 181 00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 6: so many boats on the core and only so many 182 00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 6: patches of water in which each of those boats can go, 183 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,880 Speaker 6: And when they're doing high speed maneuvers, then things like 184 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:10,560 Speaker 6: this are always, I guess, you know, potentially likely to happen. 185 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:14,319 Speaker 6: But what they have to balance here is the visual 186 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,120 Speaker 6: spectacle of it all, because they split the fleet as 187 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 6: we know yesterday, and when there were thirteen boats on 188 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 6: the course, it was unbelievable. You didn't know, we'd look 189 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:24,080 Speaker 6: from one moment to the next. But when there are 190 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:26,679 Speaker 6: only five or six boats out there, it's far less 191 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,800 Speaker 6: compelling as a viewing proposition. And that's I guess what 192 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 6: they have to weigh up what is the most spectacular 193 00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 6: but also the most safe. I mean, it's an extreme sport. 194 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 6: They call it Formula one on the water, so it's 195 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:41,720 Speaker 6: always going to have some inherent risk. But yeah, they've 196 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 6: just got to find that balance. I think is. 197 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:45,720 Speaker 2: That the primary problem is just the number of boats 198 00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:46,440 Speaker 2: they have out there. 199 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:49,439 Speaker 6: I think so in the small racecourse in Auckland, it's 200 00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:52,320 Speaker 6: smaller tighter than most of the other ones on the 201 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:55,000 Speaker 6: sale GP circuit. So you add those two things together. 202 00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:57,560 Speaker 6: How close they are to shore as well, which is 203 00:09:57,559 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 6: another part of the attraction, of course, of this type 204 00:09:59,920 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 6: of sailing and air all combined together. I think that 205 00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 6: we you know, like I say, the likelihood of it 206 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 6: happening is magnified under those circumstances. 207 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:11,679 Speaker 2: Now, what do you make of Kiwi's being eligible and 208 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 2: I suppose anybody playing for the English Rugby League squad 209 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:16,600 Speaker 2: as well for playing in the state of origin. 210 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:19,720 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think this is this is just a natural progression. 211 00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:22,600 Speaker 6: You still have to fulfill the state of origin criteria, 212 00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:24,320 Speaker 6: which means you either have to have been born in 213 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:28,000 Speaker 6: New South Wales of Queensland, lived there since before the 214 00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:30,000 Speaker 6: age of thirteen, or had a father who's played for 215 00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:32,079 Speaker 6: one of the two teams. But what it does is 216 00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:34,960 Speaker 6: that it takes away the necessity that you have to 217 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 6: have played for Australia or one of the Pacific nations. 218 00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:40,480 Speaker 6: Now Keiwek's and those who have played for Great Britain 219 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 6: who fulfill the other criteria can play state of origin. 220 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:45,680 Speaker 6: So I guess Kaylen pong is probably the best example 221 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 6: of someone who hasn't up until now been able to 222 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:50,720 Speaker 6: is now able to. I think it's a sensible decision. 223 00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 2: What's brought it on? Because I mean, am I reading 224 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:55,160 Speaker 2: too much into it if I think that it's because 225 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 2: of Kaylen Ponger? 226 00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:57,200 Speaker 7: Oh? 227 00:10:57,280 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 6: I mean, I think he's probably he's probably been a 228 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:02,320 Speaker 6: test case and all of this, and they say that 229 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:04,200 Speaker 6: state of origin is the pinnacle of the game. And 230 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 6: when you're leaving world class players like that out of 231 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:10,280 Speaker 6: it just because they happen to have represented the Kiwis 232 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 6: and not Australia, when he ticks every other box, you think, 233 00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:15,400 Speaker 6: why shouldn't Kaelen Ponger be there? And under these new 234 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:16,800 Speaker 6: rules he'll be able. 235 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:19,880 Speaker 2: To now Piney is because one of the rules, obviously, 236 00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 2: as you mentioned, is that you have to have lived 237 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:23,120 Speaker 2: in the state since you were thirteen years old. Is 238 00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:25,640 Speaker 2: this going to encourage scouting to happen before that age? 239 00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:26,400 Speaker 4: Yeah? 240 00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:29,440 Speaker 6: That could be the unintended consequence, right, Is that is 241 00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:31,679 Speaker 6: that if there's a keyw WE over here who's looking 242 00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:34,480 Speaker 6: good at age eleven or twelve, goodness me, will. 243 00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:36,560 Speaker 2: They be when do they start? Piney? 244 00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:39,719 Speaker 6: It's a bit later than that, Heather. It's normally kind 245 00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 6: of in that sort of sixteenth rold. You know, when 246 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,720 Speaker 6: you're playing first fifteen rugby, for example. I know the 247 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:48,120 Speaker 6: scouts from NRAL clubs are very very watchful of first 248 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:50,240 Speaker 6: fifteen rugby. You're not normally in that team, Well, you're 249 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:52,720 Speaker 6: not when you're twelve years old or thirteen years old, 250 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 6: So I'm not sure that that unintended consequence will happen regularly. 251 00:11:57,400 --> 00:11:59,760 Speaker 2: Piney listen, thank you very much, appreciate your time. Jason 252 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 2: Pine Sports talkhost to We're back at seven this evening. Now, 253 00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:04,480 Speaker 2: I've got some happy news for you. The Hurricanes have 254 00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:08,560 Speaker 2: named their co captains, so they they've gone for Diplassy 255 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:11,599 Speaker 2: Carrefe and Jordie Barrett, and I congratulate them on that, 256 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:15,240 Speaker 2: and I'm very happy with this news. Because it is 257 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 2: a much more streamline situation than last year. If you recall, 258 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:22,599 Speaker 2: there were four co captains, so two is definitely a 259 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:24,319 Speaker 2: vast improvement For twenty six. 260 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:26,360 Speaker 8: It's like a reality TV show, isn't it. We're voting 261 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:28,680 Speaker 8: some off each season, so you know it will eventually 262 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:29,560 Speaker 8: get down to the final. 263 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:33,160 Speaker 2: It's like Treasure Island Hurricane co captain situation. So next year, 264 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:35,600 Speaker 2: presumably judging by your theory and its next year, we 265 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:36,000 Speaker 2: get down. 266 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:38,040 Speaker 8: To one do one there there can be only one. 267 00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:40,440 Speaker 2: And then after that, after that we decide which half 268 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:41,040 Speaker 2: of them we like. 269 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:45,600 Speaker 1: For twenty two, the headlines and the hard questions, it's 270 00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:47,400 Speaker 1: the mic asking breakfast, the time. 271 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:49,840 Speaker 9: Minister is with us act viewer departments, yes or no? 272 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 4: Really open to doing what we can to improve the. 273 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:53,400 Speaker 10: Effectiveness of public service. 274 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:54,600 Speaker 4: I still think there's a long way to go. 275 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:56,920 Speaker 9: Why do we need twenty eight cabinet ministers, a bunch 276 00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:58,199 Speaker 9: of whom don't even sit in cabinet? 277 00:12:58,240 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 4: Well, actually the bigger. 278 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 10: Issue is how do you or going to the public 279 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:03,360 Speaker 10: service in a way that delivers more effectiveness, And then 280 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:05,040 Speaker 10: on the back of that you'd work out how many 281 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:06,760 Speaker 10: ministers you need to sort of run that system. 282 00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:09,160 Speaker 9: You promised a lot on public service cuts, you and 283 00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:11,560 Speaker 9: effect cut two thousand. You could have done more, You 284 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:13,480 Speaker 9: would have taken the same amount of grief. Did you 285 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:14,080 Speaker 9: miss a treat? 286 00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:16,240 Speaker 10: Look, I think there's been a massive amount of bureaucracy 287 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:19,160 Speaker 10: in that system. We've generated eleven billion of savings every 288 00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:20,120 Speaker 10: year we've been there. 289 00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:23,240 Speaker 9: Back tomorrow at six am the Mic Hosking Breakfast with 290 00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:25,199 Speaker 9: the Defendant, News Talk ZEDB. 291 00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:28,800 Speaker 1: Cutting through the noise to get the facts.

He 296 00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:41,800 Speaker 2: wants to play for the key, which would there make 297 00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:45,000 Speaker 2: him ineligible for state of origin Here the sale GP 298 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:48,079 Speaker 2: was a blast. However, Saturday, with thirteen boats headed for 299 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:50,040 Speaker 2: a start line and trying to sail around a boy 300 00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:52,320 Speaker 2: at the same time, was chaos. It was hard to 301 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:54,240 Speaker 2: see who was last and who was first. Splitting the 302 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:56,640 Speaker 2: fleet on Sunday was a game Changer's still exciting to watch. 303 00:13:56,640 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 2: Great weekend in Auckland. The place was buzzing regards. Robbie 304 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:01,880 Speaker 2: from New Plymouth is good news. And you don't hear 305 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:04,840 Speaker 2: that about Auckland every day, do yeah? Auckland places. Actually, 306 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,920 Speaker 2: I should say when we went to Lord the other day, 307 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,040 Speaker 2: we had dinner down because this is what concert clubs. 308 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 2: The concert the husbands of concert club members like to 309 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 2: take the mickey out of it. Well, you're gonna go 310 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:16,240 Speaker 2: for dinner, I'm going to book. So we like to 311 00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:17,920 Speaker 2: make an event out of it. So we went for 312 00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:19,600 Speaker 2: dinner down in the CBD and I'll tell you what. 313 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:22,240 Speaker 2: It was actually very busy. There was a lot of 314 00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:23,960 Speaker 2: foot traffic. People were having a good time and I 315 00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:26,680 Speaker 2: was very happy to see that Heather a major problem 316 00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 2: with the female of the species. I'm af fraid. Don't 317 00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:31,200 Speaker 2: watch the rugby. Just hit the booze and have a giggle. 318 00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:35,600 Speaker 2: Very shallow. I don't think anybody ever said watching the 319 00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:38,280 Speaker 2: rugby was a sign of a high IQ in heaven forbid. 320 00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:39,800 Speaker 2: You have a drink and have a bit of a 321 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:43,120 Speaker 2: laugh when you're watching the rugby. Now, if you believe 322 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:45,880 Speaker 2: the polls, then Angus Taylor, this is a spill that 323 00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:49,920 Speaker 2: happened on Friday in Australia, then Angus Taylor replacing Susan 324 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 2: Lee is not the solution that the Liberals may have 325 00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:55,800 Speaker 2: thought it was. It's slightly improved, but not that much so. 326 00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:58,280 Speaker 2: Sydney Morning Herald has published a poll today and it's 327 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:00,920 Speaker 2: the first since Angus Taylor rolled her. They are now 328 00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:05,880 Speaker 2: level pegging with one Nation. So under Susan Lee voters 329 00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:08,360 Speaker 2: handed one Nation twenty five percent of the primary vote, 330 00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 2: and then Susan Lee got twenty percent.

He also has taken aim at the federal 439 00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:21,119 Speaker 15: government or the amount of money that the public sector 440 00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:24,120 Speaker 15: is currently spending in Australia's saying it needs to reduce 441 00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 15: an expenditure and obviously try and bring debt under control. 442 00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:30,320 Speaker 15: The IMF meanwhile, has also had a crack today Heather 443 00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:33,480 Speaker 15: at a couple of Australian states and territories, namely Victoria 444 00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:35,760 Speaker 15: and the Northern Territory for the state of its books 445 00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:38,600 Speaker 15: and saying that the governments are being irresponsible in the 446 00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:40,720 Speaker 15: amount of money that they are spending in their states. 447 00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 2: Now, the congestion charge that's being mooted for Sydney, how much. 448 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:47,439 Speaker 15: Well they're not putting an actual price on it, but 449 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:50,040 Speaker 15: what they're saying is the more popular roads in the 450 00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:52,320 Speaker 15: CBD should have dynamic pricing. 451 00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:53,840 Speaker 13: A bit like when you get into a rideshare. 452 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:55,880 Speaker 15: Right when you get into an uber and everybody wants 453 00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:57,440 Speaker 15: the uber at the same time, it costs a little 454 00:20:57,480 --> 00:20:59,480 Speaker 15: bit more. But if everybody wants to ride on the 455 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:01,600 Speaker 15: same road in Sydney at the same time, well guess 456 00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:04,119 Speaker 15: what you get to pay for it. Now Sydney is 457 00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 15: described by its own premiere of New South Wales, Chris Men's, 458 00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:09,920 Speaker 15: as toll Mania, and I think that's a very app description. 459 00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:12,240 Speaker 15: There are so many toll roads now in Sydney and 460 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:14,680 Speaker 15: they never seem to want to take the tolls off 461 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:15,600 Speaker 15: although they were meant to. 462 00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 13: So this is currently being denied by Premier Mens. 463 00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:23,359 Speaker 15: He doesn't want to introduce specific dynamic pricing structures and 464 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:26,520 Speaker 15: tolls into the CBD. But it's something London's done, and 465 00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:28,560 Speaker 15: it's something that obviously as we try and get out 466 00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 15: of our cars and get onto public transport. Heather that 467 00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:33,720 Speaker 15: obviously these major capital cities in the world like Sydney 468 00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:35,760 Speaker 15: and Perth and about Auckland will consider. 469 00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:38,040 Speaker 2: Well, Auckland's already considering. I mean we've discussed as I 470 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:40,080 Speaker 2: think I think we've broadly come to the conclusion that 471 00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:41,840 Speaker 2: we need to do it. I mean, how's Sidney going 472 00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:42,520 Speaker 2: to react to it? 473 00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:46,000 Speaker 15: Just borrow your chopper at the early Copper and get 474 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:46,760 Speaker 15: to the stadium. 475 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:50,200 Speaker 2: Hey, tell me about these protest laws and you're part 476 00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:50,639 Speaker 2: of the world. 477 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:53,879 Speaker 13: Well, this is interesting, right, So we've brought this in. 478 00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:55,920 Speaker 15: I didn't think anybody saw it was coming in wa 479 00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:58,960 Speaker 15: where I am in Perth and they're looking to introduce 480 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:02,199 Speaker 15: these these beefed up protest laws. Whether the police may 481 00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:04,800 Speaker 15: be able to a sanction whether a protest goes ahead 482 00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 15: or not. 483 00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:06,200 Speaker 13: Now they already have that. 484 00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:08,879 Speaker 15: But they're saying that this is about the idea of 485 00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:13,159 Speaker 15: it not being based on sexuality, on religion, on people's beliefs. 486 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:15,080 Speaker 13: Yet I just find it a little bit old. 487 00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:16,960 Speaker 15: They're saying it's in relation to what happened in Bondi 488 00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:22,520 Speaker 15: and the terror attack we had here last month in Perth. 489 00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:25,679 Speaker 15: But I think the police already have these laws and 490 00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:29,480 Speaker 15: the concern that he's being raised by the Greens in particular, 491 00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:31,399 Speaker 15: and I think it's a fair question that they're actually 492 00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:33,879 Speaker 15: asking her that I can't believe. I'm saying that is, 493 00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:36,280 Speaker 15: are the police going to ultimately decide what can and 494 00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:38,719 Speaker 15: cannot go ahead in terms of what they view is 495 00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:41,479 Speaker 15: a reason to protest or not. And I think in 496 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:44,440 Speaker 15: our country and your country, the fact that we do 497 00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 15: have protests and it is a right under our democracies 498 00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 15: should be respected and it should be respected by the protesters, 499 00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:52,480 Speaker 15: don't get me wrong. And I think they have a 500 00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:55,560 Speaker 15: little bit to answer for themselves here. But police saying 501 00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:57,240 Speaker 15: what can and cannot go ahead. If it's going to 502 00:22:57,240 --> 00:23:00,639 Speaker 15: be within the laws of holding a peaceful protest, surely 503 00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:01,320 Speaker 15: it goes ahead. 504 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:01,920 Speaker 3: YEP. 505 00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:03,679 Speaker 2: I agree with you on that, Ollie, Thank you very much. 506 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:07,400 Speaker 2: Olli Peterson ABC Perth Radio Drive presenter eighteen away from five. 507 00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 1: Heither do for cllen so straightways. 508 00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:14,840 Speaker 2: So, when announcing the result today, the freightway's boss raised 509 00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 2: concerns about the government's border tax. Now, I'm not sure 510 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:20,520 Speaker 2: if you're aware, but there is a tax coming in 511 00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:23,679 Speaker 2: on April one that's going to add It's basically going 512 00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:25,560 Speaker 2: to be on everything that comes into the country under 513 00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:28,040 Speaker 2: the value of one thousand dollars as commercial freight. It's 514 00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:30,000 Speaker 2: going to be charged a tax of two dollars twenty 515 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:33,359 Speaker 2: one per item. Now Freightways is raising concern about it 516 00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:36,080 Speaker 2: because the commercial companies have to pay a higher tax. 517 00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:39,480 Speaker 2: It would seem than mail does on some items. So 518 00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 2: the example that they've used is if you ordered yourself 519 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:45,439 Speaker 2: a toothbrush from Timu, if you get it sent commercially 520 00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:47,600 Speaker 2: through one of the commercial courier companies, it's going to 521 00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:49,320 Speaker 2: be it's just going to poop two dollars twenty one 522 00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:50,480 Speaker 2: is going to be popped on top of that, and 523 00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:52,560 Speaker 2: that's that. But if it comes in through the mail 524 00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 2: and it weighs less than half a kg, four hundred 525 00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:57,240 Speaker 2: grams or whatever, it's just going to copy charge of 526 00:23:57,280 --> 00:23:59,520 Speaker 2: sixty cents. The difference between sixty cents and two dollars 527 00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:03,560 Speaker 2: twenty one reasonably significant. Right, So what they're doing is 528 00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:06,200 Speaker 2: they are now lobbying mb for what they're calling a 529 00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:08,520 Speaker 2: level playing field, right because all of this stuff is 530 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:10,120 Speaker 2: just going to add up and add up and add 531 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:12,560 Speaker 2: up and add up. For the commercial guys, we'll have 532 00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:15,600 Speaker 2: a chat to them after five o'clock. They're going to 533 00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:17,639 Speaker 2: be with US freight ways. But also after six o'clock 534 00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:19,679 Speaker 2: we're gonna ask Nichola Willis about this. Because we've got 535 00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:22,760 Speaker 2: the gas tax, now you've got the border tax. There's 536 00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:24,320 Speaker 2: a lot more taxes to tell you about through the 537 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:26,399 Speaker 2: course of this show, So stand by Barrisapas with us 538 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 2: next sixteen away from. 539 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:31,360 Speaker 1: Five Politics with Centric Credit, check your customers and get payments. 540 00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:34,560 Speaker 2: Certaday, former warrior Kevin Campion of the State of Origin 541 00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:36,160 Speaker 2: coming to New Zealand.

Hello, Barry, Oh, good afternoon, 544 00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:44,520 Speaker 2: Heather dan Park Dealers, well over due, isn't it? 545 00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:47,600 Speaker 16: Well, it's incredible really, And look, I take my hat 546 00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:51,359 Speaker 16: off to Nick Sautner, the chief executive at eden Park. 547 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:57,000 Speaker 16: He works tirelessly there and you know this deal the 548 00:24:57,040 --> 00:25:00,639 Speaker 16: State of Origin has taken three years to negotiate. You 549 00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:03,199 Speaker 16: can imagine a lot of behind the scenes would have 550 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:06,080 Speaker 16: gone on with that, and you know they've pulled it off. 551 00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:07,000 Speaker 17: But not just that. 552 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:12,080 Speaker 16: When you look at they can host twelve large concerts 553 00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:17,240 Speaker 16: it's what one a month, but medium sized concerts they 554 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:20,640 Speaker 16: can have another twenty any day of the week. Now, 555 00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:24,240 Speaker 16: some residents, including the old mate Helen Clark, could be 556 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:27,480 Speaker 16: pretty upset about that, but it's the old story, isn't it. 557 00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:30,199 Speaker 16: If you buy a house next to a or what 558 00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:34,120 Speaker 16: railway line you expect to hear trains going past. 559 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:35,879 Speaker 2: Now Fairs to the residents like, I don't think that 560 00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:38,280 Speaker 2: we should overlook the It's a fair gripe from them, 561 00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:40,520 Speaker 2: because if you buy a house next to a railway 562 00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:43,320 Speaker 2: line where one train comes by every day, it's very 563 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:45,200 Speaker 2: different to all of a sudden having a train coming 564 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:45,960 Speaker 2: by every hour. 565 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:46,520 Speaker 4: Right. 566 00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:50,199 Speaker 16: But look, you know when you look at the return, 567 00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:53,720 Speaker 16: I can't remember. I think it was three dollars something 568 00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:56,679 Speaker 16: for a dollar spent, and you know that's the return 569 00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:59,320 Speaker 16: to the economy, not just an Auckland, but the country 570 00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:03,080 Speaker 16: as well. I think it's a great deal for New Zealand, 571 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:03,919 Speaker 16: and I think. 572 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:07,399 Speaker 2: You know more more, But is the actual thing not 573 00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:10,439 Speaker 2: actually that you've got this giant facility sitting there and 574 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:11,919 Speaker 2: you're going, no, you're not allowed to use it. 575 00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 13: Don't use it. 576 00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:13,840 Speaker 2: That's dumb. 577 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:17,160 Speaker 16: It's a magnificent stadium. And look, I've talked to next 578 00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:20,040 Speaker 16: Saughtener a lot about what he would love to do there, 579 00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:24,200 Speaker 16: and the ideas that he have has I think are 580 00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:27,760 Speaker 16: absolutely fantastic and I say good luck to anyone that's 581 00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 16: involved with them. 582 00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 1: Now. 583 00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:31,560 Speaker 2: Is labor playing games for the ndie Fdo they are 584 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:32,600 Speaker 2: well of course. 585 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:35,040 Speaker 16: They are, and you know there will be a signature, 586 00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:39,119 Speaker 16: a labor party signature and sign off of this agreement. 587 00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:43,760 Speaker 16: But the problem is the longer the deal is delayed, 588 00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 16: the worse it could be. 589 00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:46,679 Speaker 17: For New Zealand. 590 00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:51,399 Speaker 16: I'm thinking of wine here, because the Europeans are champing 591 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:54,119 Speaker 16: at the bit as well, and if we don't sign 592 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:57,480 Speaker 16: at a certain time, then our wine makers will be 593 00:26:57,600 --> 00:27:00,960 Speaker 16: disadvantage to as I understand the agreements, is. 594 00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:03,760 Speaker 2: It not that we have the ability like if we 595 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:07,399 Speaker 2: sign it now before the Europeans sign there, and if 596 00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:10,480 Speaker 2: they get a better deal, then ours will automatically raise 597 00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:12,200 Speaker 2: to match their deal. But if we don't sign it 598 00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:13,399 Speaker 2: before them and they get a bit of deal, we 599 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:13,840 Speaker 2: miss out. 600 00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:16,479 Speaker 16: That's exactly the way it's written. And you know that 601 00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:19,560 Speaker 16: really is a big issue. And look, Chris Hipkins, some 602 00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:22,119 Speaker 16: of the stuff he's raised, and I would have thought 603 00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:25,679 Speaker 16: that he would have known this before he even raised it. 604 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:31,600 Speaker 16: That they talked about the number of students visa's going 605 00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:36,560 Speaker 16: to be issued under this agreement and how students could 606 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:39,280 Speaker 16: be flooding into the country. Now he should said there 607 00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:42,000 Speaker 16: should be a cap on the number of students. Well, 608 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:45,520 Speaker 16: I'm sorry, there's no cap. There's no immigration cap on 609 00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:48,439 Speaker 16: any students coming into New Zealand. So it's not just 610 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:52,000 Speaker 16: the Indians, it's everybody else as well. So that's to me, 611 00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:55,320 Speaker 16: that's one of the aspects that he's concerned about. Well, 612 00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:59,359 Speaker 16: if he understood the immigration law the way he should 613 00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:02,640 Speaker 16: do before making these statements, then there wouldn't be a problem. 614 00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:06,440 Speaker 2: Now, what did you make of David Siemol's announcement yesterday 615 00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:08,960 Speaker 2: that he wants us smaller government government departments? What forty 616 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:11,679 Speaker 2: one down to thirty and minister's twenty eight down to twenty. 617 00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:15,480 Speaker 16: Yeah, and we've heard it all before. I mean he 618 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:18,040 Speaker 16: first made the call and I think it was May 619 00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:22,080 Speaker 16: last year, just at the beginning of May. And you 620 00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:26,320 Speaker 16: know he's air marked a number of ministries he'd like 621 00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:30,200 Speaker 16: to see act and you know, the Mari Development Ministry, 622 00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:35,760 Speaker 16: the People's Specific Ministry, Women Ethnic Communities and outside the ministries, 623 00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:38,040 Speaker 16: he had also liked the Human Rights Commission to go. 624 00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:41,840 Speaker 16: So that would reduce a lot of public servants, There's 625 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:43,840 Speaker 16: no doubt about that. And you've got to look at 626 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:47,520 Speaker 16: some of these ministries and say, really they are they 627 00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:51,520 Speaker 16: worthy of remaining on the book If they're. 628 00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:53,719 Speaker 2: Not actually delivering a service. Well, let's think about it 629 00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:56,719 Speaker 2: like this. You have got some service delivery ministries, right, 630 00:28:56,760 --> 00:28:59,400 Speaker 2: so the idea is actually taking tax and paying things 631 00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:03,080 Speaker 2: and blah blah blah. You've got the Ministry of Health 632 00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:06,360 Speaker 2: that's actually doing things like running a health department. If 633 00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:08,400 Speaker 2: it's just a policy ministry, like just a bunch of 634 00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:10,920 Speaker 2: people sitting around thinking about that ministry. 635 00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:13,040 Speaker 16: Led into another ministry quite easily. 636 00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:16,440 Speaker 2: Because spy, do you want to keep scrap it if 637 00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:18,480 Speaker 2: all they're doing is thinking about things, get rid of that. 638 00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:20,600 Speaker 16: The other thing is that, of course the number of 639 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:27,720 Speaker 16: ministers he's suggested eight ministry should go. This is minister portfolios, 640 00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:32,080 Speaker 16: child poverty reduction, where we saw how successful just doing 641 00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:38,840 Speaker 16: this with that one hospitality, voluntary sector, racing Auckland, South Ireland, 642 00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:44,360 Speaker 16: you know, hunting and fishing and space. I think space though, 643 00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:47,800 Speaker 16: I quite like the Space Ministry because we've increased the 644 00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:50,280 Speaker 16: number of launchers now that we're allowed to have from 645 00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:51,640 Speaker 16: New Zealand and I think. 646 00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:53,760 Speaker 2: So she made one decision and you like the whole ministry. 647 00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:55,840 Speaker 2: She's you're easy to please. 648 00:29:55,920 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 16: No, it's not that hither this could be a real 649 00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:03,080 Speaker 16: money spinner for this country. I mean we could be this, 650 00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:06,160 Speaker 16: we could be the NASA of the future. 651 00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:06,440 Speaker 3: Harry. 652 00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:08,600 Speaker 2: It's not a minister that's going to spin the money. 653 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 2: It's a private sector. 654 00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:13,160 Speaker 16: Yes, we have the private sector. The private sector is 655 00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:15,520 Speaker 16: pushing this government and doing quite well, thank you. And 656 00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:17,880 Speaker 16: I think we should have a minister that they can 657 00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:20,280 Speaker 16: lobby to do these sorts of things. 658 00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:24,320 Speaker 2: Okay, Barry, thanks miss, Senior political correspondent eight away from 659 00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:30,400 Speaker 2: five so oh week at at Otago University starts today 660 00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:34,560 Speaker 2: and this year the police and the university are particularly worried, 661 00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:36,680 Speaker 2: especially given the guy fell off the roof last week, 662 00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:38,760 Speaker 2: and I think another chap fell off another roof actually 663 00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:41,200 Speaker 2: late last year.

There was something there that was round 671 00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:09,080 Speaker 18: in form and going like four times faster than my 672 00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:13,840 Speaker 18: super jet Fighter plane, and I look at these guys 673 00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:16,760 Speaker 18: and they really mean it. Am I a believer in? 674 00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:17,040 Speaker 4: No? 675 00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:19,280 Speaker 18: I probably? I can't say I am. 676 00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:24,520 Speaker 2: I can't. How is it that Donald Trump saying that 677 00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:28,520 Speaker 2: he doesn't believe in aliens still sounds more unhinged than 678 00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:32,360 Speaker 2: Barack Obama saying he does believe in aliens? I don't understand. 679 00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:35,760 Speaker 8: Those two clips are actually such an excellent demonstration of 680 00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:38,880 Speaker 8: the two different ways those guys talk. Because Barack Obama calmly, 681 00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 8: insensibly tells us what we already know. They probably exist, 682 00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:43,320 Speaker 8: but we've never seen any and Trump just does his 683 00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:45,200 Speaker 8: best impression of a fighter pilot and talks about how 684 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:45,720 Speaker 8: pretty they are. 685 00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:49,440 Speaker 2: It's hey, here's the ironic story of the day. You 686 00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:51,760 Speaker 2: know what the Havanas and Rome is. This is the 687 00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:54,400 Speaker 2: theory that the diplomats stationed in the US embassy and 688 00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:58,520 Speaker 2: Cuba began suffering from unexplained cognitive symptoms like virtigo and 689 00:31:58,560 --> 00:32:01,360 Speaker 2: memory loss, hearing loss, really bad headaches and stuff because 690 00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:04,719 Speaker 2: of a machine that was being deployed to deliberately harm them, 691 00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:07,280 Speaker 2: and it was emitting powerful pulses of microwave energy. Right, 692 00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:09,720 Speaker 2: the theory has been around for ten years. Turns out 693 00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:13,080 Speaker 2: now that a scientist in Norway built one because he 694 00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:15,760 Speaker 2: wanted to prove that a machine like this couldn't possibly 695 00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:18,400 Speaker 2: hurt humans, and then he tested it on himself and 696 00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:25,360 Speaker 2: gave himself brain damage. Yeah, don't test things on yourself. 697 00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:27,760 Speaker 2: I suppose there's a lesson anyway. Chris Hopkins is with 698 00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:29,760 Speaker 2: us on the India FTA next Newstalks. 699 00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:30,040 Speaker 7: He'd be. 700 00:33:04,120 --> 00:33:06,840 Speaker 1: The only drive show you can try. Truck to ask 701 00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:10,280 Speaker 1: the questions, you get the answers, find the faack and 702 00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:14,800 Speaker 1: give the analysis. Here the duplicy elland drive with one 703 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:18,240 Speaker 1: New Zealand and the power of satellite mobile news dogs 704 00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:20,520 Speaker 1: V afternoon. 705 00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:22,960 Speaker 2: We have yet more questions about the free trade deal 706 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:25,800 Speaker 2: with India, this time about the commitment from New Zealand 707 00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:28,719 Speaker 2: of thirty three billion New Zealand dollars of private business 708 00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:31,720 Speaker 2: investment into India over the next fifteen years. Chris Hipkins 709 00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:34,320 Speaker 2: is the Labor Party leader. High Chippie, get a Heather, 710 00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:35,200 Speaker 2: what's your concern? 711 00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:39,200 Speaker 7: Well, we're concerned that New Zealand, the current government could 712 00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:40,920 Speaker 7: be signing New Zealand up to a commitment that we 713 00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:43,480 Speaker 7: are unlikely to ever be able to meet, and that 714 00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:45,760 Speaker 7: we could find the free trade agreement unpicked on the 715 00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:49,520 Speaker 7: India side very quickly, if we don't meet that commitment. 716 00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:51,760 Speaker 2: Now, what do you mean that if we don't meet 717 00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:53,840 Speaker 2: the commitment, they just pull our market access. 718 00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:56,280 Speaker 7: So if you look at the coverage of the free 719 00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:59,560 Speaker 7: trade agreement in India, they've been describing it as an 720 00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:03,240 Speaker 7: investment and labor mobility agreement, and they have been very 721 00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:05,720 Speaker 7: clear that this is a commitment by New Zealand to 722 00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:08,279 Speaker 7: inject up to thirty three million New Zealand dollars a 723 00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:12,760 Speaker 7: twenty sorry billion, twenty billion US dollars from New Zealand 724 00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:13,879 Speaker 7: into India over the. 725 00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:14,880 Speaker 5: Next fifteen years. 726 00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:17,839 Speaker 7: And they've actually made some pretty sweeping statements and if 727 00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:20,040 Speaker 7: New Zealand doesn't meet that commitment, we can cancel the deal. 728 00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:22,160 Speaker 2: But aren't they just playing politics as well? Like everybody's 729 00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:23,799 Speaker 2: playing politics, including them. 730 00:34:24,320 --> 00:34:26,040 Speaker 7: Well, I think we need to understand what it means 731 00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:29,440 Speaker 7: for New Zealand. So there is actually a wording issue 732 00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:31,440 Speaker 7: here that we need to really get our heads around. 733 00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:33,560 Speaker 7: So on the India side, they are saying it is 734 00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:36,520 Speaker 7: a commitment by the New Zealand government to facilitate that investment. 735 00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:38,960 Speaker 7: On the New Zealand side, they're saying, Oh, it's just 736 00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:41,080 Speaker 7: we're just going to promote it. If it doesn't happen, 737 00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:43,080 Speaker 7: it doesn't matter. I think we need to understand the 738 00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:47,000 Speaker 7: consequences of New Zealand not meeting that commitment, and whether 739 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:49,719 Speaker 7: in fact it's a commitment to facilitate that investment or 740 00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:51,160 Speaker 7: just to promote investment in India. 741 00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:53,759 Speaker 2: Now did have to be promoting investment, right, because I 742 00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:56,040 Speaker 2: can't see any world in which we can put that 743 00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:58,960 Speaker 2: much money of private that much private money into them 744 00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:00,640 Speaker 2: in fifteen years. That's impossible. 745 00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:05,000 Speaker 7: I think it's almost entirely impossible, and that's why I'm 746 00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:06,839 Speaker 7: surprised that they're trying to sign us up to that. 747 00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:09,000 Speaker 7: To put that into context, you know, I think over 748 00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 7: the last twenty five years less than a billion New 749 00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:14,520 Speaker 7: Zealand dollars has been invested in India. In the first 750 00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:17,200 Speaker 7: fifteen years of our free trade agreement with China, I 751 00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 7: think there's about one and a half billion dollars worth 752 00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:22,040 Speaker 7: of investment from New Zealand into China. And the lion's 753 00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:24,000 Speaker 7: here of that was Fonterra, and of course Fonterra is 754 00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:26,360 Speaker 7: largely excluded from the India Free Trade Agreement. 755 00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:28,320 Speaker 2: Now you're not going to pull your support for this, 756 00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:28,680 Speaker 2: are you. 757 00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:31,600 Speaker 7: Well, we certainly don't want to. I don't want to 758 00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:33,960 Speaker 7: play a game of chicken with the government over this. Well, 759 00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:35,600 Speaker 7: I want to find a way forward so that New 760 00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:38,800 Speaker 7: Zealand exporters can get the benefits of this trade agreement. 761 00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:41,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, but you're not going to pull support a I 762 00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:42,839 Speaker 2: suspect you're playing a bit of politics here too. 763 00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:46,080 Speaker 7: Well, I'm not trying to make this into a high 764 00:35:46,080 --> 00:35:49,520 Speaker 7: stakes thing. We want to understand the advice the government's received. 765 00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:52,360 Speaker 7: You know, we've got different government ministers saying the advice 766 00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:55,040 Speaker 7: is different things. Winston Peters are saying the advice is 767 00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:57,200 Speaker 7: it's a bad deal. I just want to see the 768 00:35:57,200 --> 00:35:59,759 Speaker 7: advice before we you know, we just can't give the 769 00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:02,760 Speaker 7: government with a blank cheek here. But there's a trade 770 00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:05,200 Speaker 7: agreement with India potentially a very good thing for New Zealand, 771 00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:06,680 Speaker 7: and then yes, it potentially is all. 772 00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:08,640 Speaker 2: Right, Jepe, thanks for your time. It's Chris Hopkins, Labor 773 00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:12,160 Speaker 2: Party lead in ten plus five. Ever, do for see 774 00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:14,520 Speaker 2: Ellen now if you're looking for assign the economy is 775 00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:17,320 Speaker 2: recovering here it is. Freightways has posted a strong first 776 00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:20,359 Speaker 2: half result. Profit is up by seventeen percent, revenues up 777 00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:23,640 Speaker 2: by nine percent. The chief executive, Mark trowhere is with us. 778 00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:26,040 Speaker 19: Now, ho Mark, Hi, Heather, how are you? 779 00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:27,759 Speaker 2: I'm very well, thank you. Now can we take it 780 00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:29,400 Speaker 2: from this that the recovery is underway? 781 00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:33,040 Speaker 20: Look, I think it's just started in New Zealand. It's 782 00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:35,560 Speaker 20: a good result on that spit of market share gains. 783 00:36:35,600 --> 00:36:38,800 Speaker 20: Australia going really well for us, But in New Zealand 784 00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:41,279 Speaker 20: you're just starting to see customers trade a little bit 785 00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:43,720 Speaker 20: up on what they did last year. So yep, early 786 00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:44,880 Speaker 20: stages good stuff. 787 00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:48,759 Speaker 2: Now why is your oversized business doing so well? 788 00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:53,320 Speaker 20: I think it's a niche where it's often called ugly 789 00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:56,359 Speaker 20: freight and a lot of carriers don't necessarily like it. 790 00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:58,960 Speaker 20: So if you're delivering a bit of flat pack furniture 791 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:00,960 Speaker 20: to your house, or you ordered a bike, can you 792 00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:03,640 Speaker 20: want that delivered? It's stuff that's a bit too big 793 00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:06,360 Speaker 20: for couriers, it's a bit too small for freight forwarders. 794 00:37:06,920 --> 00:37:10,439 Speaker 20: So we're filling that niche. And yeah, not too many 795 00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:12,600 Speaker 20: direct competitors in that space, and the. 796 00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:15,040 Speaker 2: Food and hospitality sector, from what you're seeing, is still 797 00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:16,440 Speaker 2: laying the rest of the economy. 798 00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:21,040 Speaker 20: Yeah, I think December was better, but look at it 799 00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:23,399 Speaker 20: has certainly been a bit softer. We deliver a lot 800 00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:28,560 Speaker 20: of more expensive food. It's salmon, it's good cuts of steak, gormet, dairy, 801 00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:31,799 Speaker 20: all those types of things, and the domestic economy it's 802 00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:33,759 Speaker 20: been a bit tougher. A lot of those a lot 803 00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:37,240 Speaker 20: of those producers are sending that stuff offshore because Keywis 804 00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:38,600 Speaker 20: aren't consuming as much of it. 805 00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:42,160 Speaker 2: I see, now, what is your concern about the border? Tax? 806 00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:50,000 Speaker 20: Equality? Is my concern? So fundamentally the tax or the 807 00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:52,799 Speaker 20: fee or the levy, the customs fee, I think is 808 00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:55,400 Speaker 20: the way they talk about it. From our point of view, 809 00:37:55,440 --> 00:37:57,440 Speaker 20: if you bring an item over the border and it 810 00:37:57,520 --> 00:38:01,000 Speaker 20: needs to be checked by customs, pay the same fee 811 00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:02,880 Speaker 20: for that item, regardless of whether it goes through a 812 00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:06,760 Speaker 20: commercial operator like ourselves, or a FedEx or a UPS 813 00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:10,200 Speaker 20: or whoever, or whether it gets directed through a mail 814 00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:13,960 Speaker 20: stream so or where after. Simply is a level playing field. 815 00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:17,120 Speaker 2: And so how much more are you paying than the 816 00:38:17,200 --> 00:38:18,680 Speaker 2: likes of New Zealand Post. 817 00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:22,640 Speaker 20: Well, the average item is around about half a kilo. 818 00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:25,640 Speaker 20: We'll pay two dollars twenty one an item, although the 819 00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:29,360 Speaker 20: customer will if it goes through the mail, half a 820 00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:33,720 Speaker 20: kilo will be about sixty cents, So we're paying close 821 00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:36,720 Speaker 20: to four times as much for exactly the same item, 822 00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:39,400 Speaker 20: regardless of whether, you know, depending on what stream it 823 00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:39,839 Speaker 20: goes through. 824 00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:41,319 Speaker 2: It doesn't sound like a lot adds up. 825 00:38:43,719 --> 00:38:48,160 Speaker 20: Look a lot of the lot of the Chinese e 826 00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:51,880 Speaker 20: commerce players they will shift their volume for fifty cents, 827 00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:54,959 Speaker 20: let alone the difference of a dollar sixty. So yeah, 828 00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:57,560 Speaker 20: it can it can add up, and it can be material. 829 00:38:57,680 --> 00:38:59,279 Speaker 20: And you don't make a whole lot of profit on 830 00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:01,759 Speaker 20: these items first place, so it's not as if you 831 00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:04,319 Speaker 20: can afford to subsidize the different All. 832 00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:06,600 Speaker 2: Right, Mark, listen, thanks for talking to us. Appreciated Mark Trowere, 833 00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:09,640 Speaker 2: who's the Freightway CEO. We will raise that with Nikola 834 00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:12,000 Speaker 2: Willis when she's with us after six, because that's another 835 00:39:12,080 --> 00:39:14,279 Speaker 2: tax we need to deal with. Isn't it thirteen past five? 836 00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:16,279 Speaker 13: Heather do so? 837 00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:19,160 Speaker 2: Contact Energy is reported as well today. Is something of 838 00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:22,879 Speaker 2: a surprise that Contact has announced its raising capital because 839 00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:26,000 Speaker 2: I think it was Genesis had kind of that was 840 00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:28,400 Speaker 2: something that had been forecast as happening with Genesis, but 841 00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:31,319 Speaker 2: not so much with Contact. They want another let's own 842 00:39:31,320 --> 00:39:33,680 Speaker 2: additional half a billion dollars or thereabouts, I want to 843 00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:36,680 Speaker 2: spend it on new generation also energy storage. The energy 844 00:39:36,680 --> 00:39:40,239 Speaker 2: storage is interesting. This is batteries, a giant bank of 845 00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:43,600 Speaker 2: Tesla batteries that they're going to install near the steel 846 00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:46,600 Speaker 2: mill at Glenbrook, and it will be capable of releasing 847 00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:49,560 Speaker 2: two hundred megawatts of electricity, which is enough to power 848 00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:53,120 Speaker 2: about four percent of Auckland's peak power demand, and then 849 00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:56,359 Speaker 2: it can run full noise for two hours and then 850 00:39:56,400 --> 00:40:00,200 Speaker 2: it needs to be recharged. Now on your electricity bill. 851 00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:03,200 Speaker 2: If you don't love what's happened to your electricity bill lately, 852 00:40:03,239 --> 00:40:05,200 Speaker 2: and frankly, who does, you're not going to love this 853 00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:08,239 Speaker 2: contact is reporting a forty four percent increase in its 854 00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:10,480 Speaker 2: net profit. That's just for the six months to December. 855 00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:13,920 Speaker 2: It has paid out a big old dividend payment and 856 00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:16,759 Speaker 2: it is going to raise electricity prices at the rate 857 00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:20,040 Speaker 2: of inflation this upcoming year fourteen past five. Heither the 858 00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:22,279 Speaker 2: Indian government are trying to sell the FDA to their people. 859 00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:23,960 Speaker 2: So of course that talking it up Andy, thank you 860 00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:26,560 Speaker 2: for that. Seventeen past five. Now oh week is kicking 861 00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:29,000 Speaker 2: off today. But this year there is added concern given 862 00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:32,440 Speaker 2: that two students have fallen off roofs in Otaga or 863 00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:35,160 Speaker 2: around Otaga University in just the last five months. Daniel 864 00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:40,479 Speaker 2: Lemi is the OUSA president and with us now, Hi Daniel, Hello, 865 00:40:40,560 --> 00:40:42,600 Speaker 2: how's it going very well? Thank you? So how's it 866 00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:44,359 Speaker 2: looking as O Week? As big as ever this year? 867 00:40:47,719 --> 00:40:49,840 Speaker 21: The weather is holding off, so it will be another 868 00:40:49,920 --> 00:40:50,919 Speaker 21: big year for O Week. 869 00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:51,680 Speaker 20: Yeah. 870 00:40:51,719 --> 00:40:54,359 Speaker 21: We just had a whole lot of students, particularly our 871 00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:57,440 Speaker 21: first years, coming down settling in, so yeah, should be 872 00:40:57,440 --> 00:40:58,160 Speaker 21: a good week ahead. 873 00:40:58,440 --> 00:41:00,680 Speaker 2: Well look, it might just be that I'm a little 874 00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:02,000 Speaker 2: bit out of the loop and got too old for 875 00:41:02,480 --> 00:41:05,479 Speaker 2: conversations like this. But what is this business with flow week? 876 00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:07,040 Speaker 2: How long has this been going on? 877 00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:11,200 Speaker 21: I believe it's a relatively new thing. So flow week 878 00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:15,279 Speaker 21: is short for a flatting oh week? So it's more 879 00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:18,919 Speaker 21: the second years and above, so people have moved out 880 00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:21,920 Speaker 21: of colleges, which is the first year thing sort of 881 00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:25,359 Speaker 21: do that? What's the thing in Dunedin? But yes, it's 882 00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:28,560 Speaker 21: been around a while now, right, so. 883 00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:32,200 Speaker 2: It's two weeks worth a partying nownstairs, just the one Daniel, 884 00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:34,319 Speaker 2: what are you guys doing given that you have had 885 00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:36,680 Speaker 2: a bit of a bad run with people falling off 886 00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:38,959 Speaker 2: roof slately, what's the safety plan. 887 00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:43,759 Speaker 21: Yeah, obviously we're telling students to stay safe, look after 888 00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:48,279 Speaker 21: their friends. But I guess something that we always point 889 00:41:48,320 --> 00:41:51,359 Speaker 21: out is, you know, there's twenty thousand odd students down 890 00:41:51,400 --> 00:41:55,759 Speaker 21: here in Dunedin now, and yeah, you definitely hear that 891 00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:59,040 Speaker 21: there's the odd story of people making bad decisions or 892 00:41:59,160 --> 00:42:03,960 Speaker 21: or whatever else happen. But for the vast majority, students 893 00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:06,120 Speaker 21: are well behaved students. Students are allowed to go and 894 00:42:06,200 --> 00:42:08,880 Speaker 21: enjoy themselves. They are in a new new place for 895 00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:11,640 Speaker 21: the majority, and they are just going out there having 896 00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:14,000 Speaker 21: fun and in a safe way. But yeah, that is 897 00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:15,319 Speaker 21: something that we're always mindful of. 898 00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:17,480 Speaker 2: All right, Daniel, thanks very much, best of luck with 899 00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:21,000 Speaker 2: it is Daniel lemi Otaga University Students Association President. If 900 00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:22,440 Speaker 2: you're like, you know what, when you got when you 901 00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:25,360 Speaker 2: have the little ones, you feel like you kind of 902 00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:27,960 Speaker 2: get through that first, you get through the first like 903 00:42:28,080 --> 00:42:30,920 Speaker 2: three years, and you feel a little bit more confident, 904 00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:32,480 Speaker 2: like they aren't just going to pick something up like 905 00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:34,680 Speaker 2: a marble off the floor and choke themselves to death, 906 00:42:34,719 --> 00:42:36,000 Speaker 2: do you know what I mean? They're like, thank god, 907 00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:38,440 Speaker 2: here we go. We're a bit safe and now we 908 00:42:38,440 --> 00:42:42,359 Speaker 2: can handle stairs small items. I can start pulling those 909 00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:45,960 Speaker 2: weird little plastic covers off the power points and then 910 00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:49,040 Speaker 2: you get to university and then it's just ye worry 911 00:42:49,120 --> 00:42:51,920 Speaker 2: all over again, don't you. The Government's agreed by the 912 00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:54,840 Speaker 2: way today to launch a ministerial review into the failure 913 00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:57,120 Speaker 2: at more Points, seewage Plant and Wellington, so that will 914 00:42:57,160 --> 00:43:00,000 Speaker 2: be wonderful news for Wellington's I think Wellington does deserve 915 00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:03,319 Speaker 2: some answers there. Now. We have got a little bit 916 00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:05,520 Speaker 2: of data on the housing market and if you were 917 00:43:05,520 --> 00:43:08,040 Speaker 2: looking for a pack up, you probably would. I mean, 918 00:43:08,080 --> 00:43:09,920 Speaker 2: I think by now we're probably not expecting it. But 919 00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:11,279 Speaker 2: I don't know how you're going to feel about this. 920 00:43:11,680 --> 00:43:14,000 Speaker 2: Still a bit slow according to the figures from Aria 921 00:43:14,160 --> 00:43:18,080 Speaker 2: and Z for January, so house prices across the month 922 00:43:18,200 --> 00:43:21,560 Speaker 2: last month fell zero point two percent. The number of 923 00:43:21,600 --> 00:43:25,520 Speaker 2: houses sold were down five point four percent. It looks 924 00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:27,759 Speaker 2: like what's going on here is all this talk about 925 00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:31,399 Speaker 2: the ocr rising has basically spooked people. So everybody's gone 926 00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:33,560 Speaker 2: whoop and pulled back a week. But even though it's 927 00:43:33,600 --> 00:43:35,640 Speaker 2: only going to happen in December and might not be 928 00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:37,319 Speaker 2: by much, if you actually look at the numbers, it's 929 00:43:37,320 --> 00:43:39,760 Speaker 2: done enough to kind of scare the horses. There's also 930 00:43:40,040 --> 00:43:42,759 Speaker 2: you can add to that the election uncertainty. Plus then 931 00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:45,160 Speaker 2: you've obviously got the factor that we have lower migration, 932 00:43:45,239 --> 00:43:48,160 Speaker 2: which means fewer buyers out there competing against you. The 933 00:43:48,200 --> 00:43:51,160 Speaker 2: only areas of notable price rises with Southland, which went 934 00:43:51,239 --> 00:43:52,920 Speaker 2: up and this is over the last quarter, so over 935 00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:56,920 Speaker 2: the last three months went up plus three point two percent. 936 00:43:57,160 --> 00:44:00,880 Speaker 2: Otago went up one point two percent. A big falls 937 00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:03,400 Speaker 2: were in no surprise, Wellington and Auckland. So Wellington in 938 00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:05,640 Speaker 2: the last three months came back one point seven percent. 939 00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:08,279 Speaker 2: Auckland came back one point one percent over the last 940 00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:11,240 Speaker 2: three months. Matt Ball is with the Property Investors Federation. 941 00:44:11,360 --> 00:44:13,200 Speaker 2: He'll be with us after half past six and talk 942 00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:14,719 Speaker 2: us through that five twenty one. 943 00:44:15,400 --> 00:44:19,720 Speaker 1: Digging deeper into the day's headlines, it's Heather Duplicllen Drive 944 00:44:20,080 --> 00:44:23,840 Speaker 1: with one New Zealand coverage like no one else news talks. 945 00:44:23,840 --> 00:44:25,120 Speaker 1: They'd be Heather. 946 00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:27,560 Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure that Chippy is our foremost expert in 947 00:44:27,600 --> 00:44:30,000 Speaker 2: writing blank checks with no accountability, so it's a little 948 00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:34,120 Speaker 2: bit rich for me. Well well said Kevin Campion is 949 00:44:34,160 --> 00:44:35,839 Speaker 2: going to be with us just after half past five, 950 00:44:35,840 --> 00:44:38,000 Speaker 2: took us through the state of our It's five twenty 951 00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:40,320 Speaker 2: four now. It occurred to me yesterday while I was 952 00:44:40,360 --> 00:44:43,000 Speaker 2: listening to David Seymour announced ACTS planned to campaign for 953 00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:45,480 Speaker 2: a smaller government, that there are two words that I 954 00:44:45,520 --> 00:44:47,960 Speaker 2: need to hear from each one of these coalition parties 955 00:44:47,960 --> 00:44:51,480 Speaker 2: when they're announcing policy for the forthcoming election. Otherwise I'm 956 00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:53,319 Speaker 2: just going to hang up the proverbial phone. And those 957 00:44:53,360 --> 00:44:57,520 Speaker 2: two words are bottom line. If they don't say it's 958 00:44:57,520 --> 00:44:59,840 Speaker 2: a bottom line, I'm going to assume it's not going 959 00:44:59,920 --> 00:45:03,480 Speaker 2: to happen. Because ACTS promised yesterday, right, take that, the 960 00:45:03,480 --> 00:45:05,880 Speaker 2: promise to campaign on cutting the number of government departments 961 00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:07,880 Speaker 2: from forty one to thirty, in the number of ministers 962 00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:11,000 Speaker 2: from twenty eight to twenty. It's laudable. I'd really like 963 00:45:11,080 --> 00:45:13,520 Speaker 2: to see it happen. But it's just the reheat of 964 00:45:13,560 --> 00:45:15,600 Speaker 2: what they said at the last election, isn't it, which 965 00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:17,400 Speaker 2: was that they would cut the number of public servants 966 00:45:17,440 --> 00:45:20,040 Speaker 2: by fourteen thousand to take the size of the public 967 00:45:20,040 --> 00:45:22,920 Speaker 2: service back to where it was before Jacinda and Grant 968 00:45:22,920 --> 00:45:26,240 Speaker 2: went nuts. And yet how many did they cut two thousand? 969 00:45:26,840 --> 00:45:29,800 Speaker 2: Same with Winston Peters. Last week he announced his campaigning 970 00:45:29,800 --> 00:45:32,279 Speaker 2: on a referendum on the Mardi seats. But I'm still 971 00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:34,080 Speaker 2: waiting for him to get around to deleting all the 972 00:45:34,120 --> 00:45:37,120 Speaker 2: references to the Treaty Principles and legislation, which was what 973 00:45:37,239 --> 00:45:39,280 Speaker 2: he said he was going to do at the last election, 974 00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:42,480 Speaker 2: and same to a degree with National because no new 975 00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:45,640 Speaker 2: taxes turns out to actually be a border tax, a 976 00:45:45,760 --> 00:45:49,399 Speaker 2: gas tax, and now the possibility of a new bank tax. Now, 977 00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:51,520 Speaker 2: of course, some of this is simply the result of 978 00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:54,520 Speaker 2: coalition negotiations. Not everybody can get everything that they want. 979 00:45:54,640 --> 00:45:57,040 Speaker 2: But some of it is also cynical politics, isn't it. 980 00:45:57,120 --> 00:46:00,200 Speaker 2: But either way, the parties can't run in twenty twenty 981 00:46:00,760 --> 00:46:02,920 Speaker 2: on a variation of what they ran on in twenty 982 00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:05,560 Speaker 2: twenty three and then didn't deliver on, as they say, 983 00:46:05,640 --> 00:46:08,800 Speaker 2: once bitten twice shy. So if it's not a bottom line, 984 00:46:09,239 --> 00:46:11,799 Speaker 2: I'm going to assume it's going the way of the 985 00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:14,839 Speaker 2: public service cuts, the Treaty Principles deletions, and the. 986 00:46:14,840 --> 00:46:18,560 Speaker 1: No new taxes here, the duplessy allen here. 987 00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:20,520 Speaker 2: The polease stop oh hither. My son was one of 988 00:46:20,560 --> 00:46:22,480 Speaker 2: the numpties that fell off a roof four years ago 989 00:46:22,480 --> 00:46:24,520 Speaker 2: broke us back. I can't believe we're still talking about this. 990 00:46:24,600 --> 00:46:28,520 Speaker 2: It's so scary here the police stop saying roofs. It's 991 00:46:28,680 --> 00:46:33,479 Speaker 2: roofs now Ross. We went to ants ran out after 992 00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:36,840 Speaker 2: we saw your text. Ross, ants ran out of the studio. 993 00:46:37,040 --> 00:46:38,520 Speaker 2: Who did you ask anst did you ask Graylen? 994 00:46:38,600 --> 00:46:39,479 Speaker 4: I asked the sub editor. 995 00:46:40,160 --> 00:46:43,359 Speaker 2: Who's the sub editor? Anna? Anna knows her stuff and 996 00:46:43,480 --> 00:46:47,000 Speaker 2: is pedantic. She's a pedant.

I think the question is 1161 00:54:18,760 --> 00:54:23,640 Speaker 19: what does the wording actually mean? Because when it comes 1162 00:54:23,680 --> 00:54:26,560 Speaker 19: to trade deals, they open doors, but of course they 1163 00:54:26,560 --> 00:54:31,040 Speaker 19: don't make companies walk through them. So this thirty four 1164 00:54:31,080 --> 00:54:35,040 Speaker 19: billion line sounds good that that's essentially saying, you know, 1165 00:54:35,400 --> 00:54:41,200 Speaker 19: our companies will go off and make these investments in India. 1166 00:54:41,239 --> 00:54:45,239 Speaker 19: But the real question is can we here in New 1167 00:54:45,360 --> 00:54:50,640 Speaker 19: Zealand create the conditions where businesses want to actually make 1168 00:54:50,680 --> 00:54:53,040 Speaker 19: that kind of investment at scale? And I think that's 1169 00:54:53,080 --> 00:54:56,359 Speaker 19: the bigger question, and often we get confused between what 1170 00:54:56,600 --> 00:55:00,600 Speaker 19: government can do and actually all of the the real 1171 00:55:00,920 --> 00:55:03,600 Speaker 19: business stuff that businesses have to do to make this 1172 00:55:03,640 --> 00:55:04,239 Speaker 19: stuff work. 1173 00:55:05,120 --> 00:55:09,560 Speaker 2: Yep, fair point Sainzo. And on this constant carping from 1174 00:55:09,560 --> 00:55:11,719 Speaker 2: the Labor Party, they're only doing this for politics, right, 1175 00:55:11,719 --> 00:55:13,239 Speaker 2: because we all know that at the end of the 1176 00:55:13,280 --> 00:55:14,719 Speaker 2: day they're going to support this, aren't they. 1177 00:55:15,760 --> 00:55:18,920 Speaker 23: Well, yes, but I mean the other issue, I mean, 1178 00:55:18,960 --> 00:55:21,440 Speaker 23: I think this serious question is asked about this thirty 1179 00:55:21,480 --> 00:55:25,960 Speaker 23: five billion investment and they're from ordver Young that a 1180 00:55:26,120 --> 00:55:29,239 Speaker 23: very good piece of the Herald sort of going into 1181 00:55:29,320 --> 00:55:32,880 Speaker 23: the details of this, and a lot of it was 1182 00:55:34,719 --> 00:55:37,680 Speaker 23: that that sort of money who was going to mean 1183 00:55:37,760 --> 00:55:39,800 Speaker 23: a who was going to have that money to invest 1184 00:55:39,880 --> 00:55:44,480 Speaker 23: plus built into the agreement is something that we're in 1185 00:55:44,520 --> 00:55:46,799 Speaker 23: there can say hey, you haven't fulfilled this, We're going 1186 00:55:46,840 --> 00:55:49,560 Speaker 23: to cancel this or do this or claim that, and 1187 00:55:49,600 --> 00:55:52,120 Speaker 23: no one's one hundred percent sure of how that's going 1188 00:55:52,160 --> 00:55:52,640 Speaker 23: to work. 1189 00:55:53,840 --> 00:55:55,760 Speaker 2: Trash. 1190 00:55:56,080 --> 00:55:59,840 Speaker 19: Yeah, I caught the Q and a interview yesterday with 1191 00:56:00,160 --> 00:56:03,759 Speaker 19: Todd McClay and it was kansassing this issue and the 1192 00:56:06,120 --> 00:56:10,560 Speaker 19: migration issue in relation to the trade agreement. And I 1193 00:56:10,560 --> 00:56:12,560 Speaker 19: think there's two things that stuck out for me, like 1194 00:56:12,719 --> 00:56:16,239 Speaker 19: for most, for most Kiwi's this is really hard to 1195 00:56:16,440 --> 00:56:19,160 Speaker 19: understand and get a grip on. So I think the 1196 00:56:19,200 --> 00:56:23,680 Speaker 19: call is to our senior politicians to be upfront about 1197 00:56:23,719 --> 00:56:30,880 Speaker 19: it and try not to skew off into populism because 1198 00:56:30,960 --> 00:56:33,560 Speaker 19: you know, migration is such a hot button issue around 1199 00:56:33,600 --> 00:56:35,680 Speaker 19: the world and Winston is trying to go off on 1200 00:56:35,719 --> 00:56:39,480 Speaker 19: that tangent with this, but also on these kinds of 1201 00:56:40,400 --> 00:56:43,359 Speaker 19: numbers and what they mean in the agreement. It may 1202 00:56:43,400 --> 00:56:46,480 Speaker 19: be that the government needs to get much clearer on 1203 00:56:46,600 --> 00:56:49,719 Speaker 19: the messaging around that and what these words actually mean 1204 00:56:49,880 --> 00:56:53,560 Speaker 19: in not only in practice, but who will have to 1205 00:56:53,600 --> 00:56:55,520 Speaker 19: deliver on these promises. 1206 00:56:55,239 --> 00:56:57,240 Speaker 2: Yeah too write and whether they can actually be forced 1207 00:56:57,280 --> 00:56:58,759 Speaker 2: to deliver on them. Guys, We'll take a break and 1208 00:56:58,800 --> 00:57:00,799 Speaker 2: come back and just to talk about David Seymour and 1209 00:57:00,840 --> 00:57:04,240 Speaker 2: his cutting the size of government policy. Sixteen away from six. 1210 00:57:05,120 --> 00:57:08,600 Speaker 1: The Huddle with New Zealand Southeby's International Real Team The 1211 00:57:08,600 --> 00:57:10,320 Speaker 1: only truly global. 1212 00:57:09,960 --> 00:57:12,160 Speaker 2: Brand fourteen away from sixty back of the huddle, Mark 1213 00:57:12,200 --> 00:57:15,240 Speaker 2: Sainsbury Trisherson now Saints, what did you make of David 1214 00:57:15,239 --> 00:57:17,600 Speaker 2: Seymore's policy to cut the size of government? 1215 00:57:19,440 --> 00:57:23,080 Speaker 23: How many times have we heard this? But I do 1216 00:57:23,160 --> 00:57:26,120 Speaker 23: have a certain amount of sympathy for cutting the size. 1217 00:57:26,120 --> 00:57:28,480 Speaker 23: I think catt is too big. I've always preferred the 1218 00:57:28,520 --> 00:57:30,680 Speaker 23: American system you get proper people who know what they're 1219 00:57:30,680 --> 00:57:34,680 Speaker 23: doing in cabinet rather than time service. But regardless of that, 1220 00:57:34,760 --> 00:57:37,600 Speaker 23: you actually nailed it before. If it's not a bottom line, 1221 00:57:37,600 --> 00:57:38,560 Speaker 23: what does it actually mean? 1222 00:57:40,080 --> 00:57:41,800 Speaker 2: Yes, Trish, what do you thank you? Sains I for 1223 00:57:41,880 --> 00:57:42,440 Speaker 2: agreeing with me? 1224 00:57:42,520 --> 00:57:49,560 Speaker 24: Tresh would add two words actually to your bottom line 1225 00:57:49,600 --> 00:57:53,560 Speaker 24: in terms of every policy put up this election, and 1226 00:57:53,640 --> 00:57:55,400 Speaker 24: that would be cost benefit. 1227 00:57:56,600 --> 00:58:00,680 Speaker 19: And you know this is a great example of where 1228 00:58:00,720 --> 00:58:05,760 Speaker 19: we are lacking real cost benefit analysis across government, starting 1229 00:58:05,840 --> 00:58:09,640 Speaker 19: with what does this whole picture look like? So don't 1230 00:58:09,680 --> 00:58:13,560 Speaker 19: forget when you're looking at the sort of structure of government, 1231 00:58:13,600 --> 00:58:16,920 Speaker 19: you've got ministers sitting at the top who then are 1232 00:58:16,920 --> 00:58:20,880 Speaker 19: in charge of portfolios, and then as a result of 1233 00:58:20,880 --> 00:58:24,240 Speaker 19: those portfolios, you have the departments sitting underneath them. So 1234 00:58:25,040 --> 00:58:28,240 Speaker 19: in my view, this isn't an all chart hobby to 1235 00:58:28,400 --> 00:58:33,120 Speaker 19: relook at how we can streamline government. It's actually about 1236 00:58:33,160 --> 00:58:36,720 Speaker 19: accountability because you the three of us, I don't know 1237 00:58:36,800 --> 00:58:40,160 Speaker 19: how many times we've looked at things going wrong, we've 1238 00:58:40,200 --> 00:58:43,760 Speaker 19: talked about a lack of accountability. That's because the system 1239 00:58:43,920 --> 00:58:50,080 Speaker 19: is an absolute muddle. So that's problem one that it 1240 00:58:50,120 --> 00:58:55,440 Speaker 19: needs to solve is better accountability. The second point is, 1241 00:58:55,880 --> 00:58:59,600 Speaker 19: you know, if you want to reform departments, you have 1242 00:58:59,760 --> 00:59:02,400 Speaker 19: to form what sits above them. So that is actually 1243 00:59:02,440 --> 00:59:07,040 Speaker 19: to Mark's point about streamlining our cabinet. At the moment, 1244 00:59:07,400 --> 00:59:11,800 Speaker 19: way too many cabinet ministers portfolios are a mess across them. 1245 00:59:11,840 --> 00:59:14,640 Speaker 19: There's a lot of duplication, which means for ministries it's 1246 00:59:14,760 --> 00:59:18,480 Speaker 19: confusing as well. And then I think the other point, 1247 00:59:18,600 --> 00:59:21,560 Speaker 19: and this is really the risk area though this would 1248 00:59:21,640 --> 00:59:25,880 Speaker 19: have to be done incredibly thoughtfully and surgically, because what 1249 00:59:25,960 --> 00:59:30,120 Speaker 19: we've seen time and time again is reorganizing the deck 1250 00:59:30,200 --> 00:59:32,800 Speaker 19: chairs on the Titanic. Health in New Zealand is a 1251 00:59:32,840 --> 00:59:37,360 Speaker 19: great example, and you get stasis, you get huge cost 1252 00:59:37,960 --> 00:59:41,240 Speaker 19: and people again they lose sight of the cost benefit 1253 00:59:41,320 --> 00:59:44,200 Speaker 19: analysis and the problem that we're trying to solve too, right. 1254 00:59:44,120 --> 00:59:46,360 Speaker 2: Is it not possible? Actually saying so that the government 1255 00:59:46,440 --> 00:59:49,200 Speaker 2: is by government. I do mean, you know, the state, 1256 00:59:49,640 --> 00:59:52,360 Speaker 2: the public service, the cabinet, that the executive, the whole 1257 00:59:52,360 --> 00:59:55,200 Speaker 2: lot of it is so big and there are so 1258 00:59:55,240 --> 00:59:58,480 Speaker 2: many vested interests and so much fear of taking a 1259 00:59:58,560 --> 01:00:01,840 Speaker 2: risk that actually the chances of being able to reduce 1260 01:00:01,880 --> 01:00:03,080 Speaker 2: it are pretty low. 1261 01:00:05,920 --> 01:00:10,919 Speaker 23: So a combination of the deep state and. 1262 01:00:10,280 --> 01:00:15,440 Speaker 2: Not like a conspiracy theory. No more gliding on look 1263 01:00:15,440 --> 01:00:17,240 Speaker 2: a look at look at health. 1264 01:00:17,560 --> 01:00:19,520 Speaker 23: Look there's always an issue, and I think there's always 1265 01:00:19,520 --> 01:00:21,680 Speaker 23: been an issue spent even with the public service. It's 1266 01:00:21,720 --> 01:00:26,240 Speaker 23: just like this monolith and it's just very hard to change, 1267 01:00:26,560 --> 01:00:28,360 Speaker 23: you know. So whether you're going to have to look 1268 01:00:28,360 --> 01:00:32,720 Speaker 23: at something you're radical and or do you look at 1269 01:00:32,720 --> 01:00:34,920 Speaker 23: sort of incremental change, it's just gonna. 1270 01:00:34,800 --> 01:00:36,760 Speaker 2: Not know you need to go radical. But if you 1271 01:00:36,800 --> 01:00:38,520 Speaker 2: do go radical, do you reckon? It would work? Like 1272 01:00:38,520 --> 01:00:42,160 Speaker 2: do you reckon? You could actually convince somebody, Okay, here's 1273 01:00:42,280 --> 01:00:44,360 Speaker 2: this is how you do it. Wouldn't it be? You'd 1274 01:00:44,400 --> 01:00:46,080 Speaker 2: cut a bunch of ministries like you go through and 1275 01:00:46,120 --> 01:00:50,240 Speaker 2: you go bullshit, bullshit, bullshit, Women's ministry, Maria Affairs, ministry, 1276 01:00:50,280 --> 01:00:52,360 Speaker 2: Ethnic affairs, like just get rid of them. Wouldn't you. 1277 01:00:55,160 --> 01:01:00,840 Speaker 23: Then we've also got no, no, no, But but are 1278 01:01:00,840 --> 01:01:02,240 Speaker 23: you going to end up as well? 1279 01:01:02,360 --> 01:01:03,959 Speaker 4: Is it all got a factor in the human cost? 1280 01:01:04,000 --> 01:01:05,840 Speaker 23: I mean, look at even just what the cuts, the 1281 01:01:05,920 --> 01:01:09,120 Speaker 23: cuts which is nextly transpiring to cuts the sort of wellingtons, 1282 01:01:09,520 --> 01:01:11,400 Speaker 23: that's the other thing you're going to you're talking also 1283 01:01:11,440 --> 01:01:14,000 Speaker 23: about people's lives. 1284 01:01:14,320 --> 01:01:18,400 Speaker 19: But I think again, go go, you're starting, you're starting 1285 01:01:18,440 --> 01:01:19,360 Speaker 19: in the middle of the sand. 1286 01:01:19,360 --> 01:01:19,600 Speaker 12: Words. 1287 01:01:19,600 --> 01:01:21,440 Speaker 19: You've got to start with the slice on top. You 1288 01:01:21,600 --> 01:01:24,960 Speaker 19: have to start with the cabinet and how that's leans example, 1289 01:01:25,320 --> 01:01:28,640 Speaker 19: and then and then that is what determines then what 1290 01:01:28,840 --> 01:01:32,840 Speaker 19: portfolios and ministry sit under that. If you just come 1291 01:01:32,880 --> 01:01:35,160 Speaker 19: back to which is where we've got in the last 1292 01:01:35,200 --> 01:01:38,320 Speaker 19: few years with quote you know, cuts to the public service, 1293 01:01:39,040 --> 01:01:41,960 Speaker 19: again we lose sight of the problem that we're trying 1294 01:01:42,000 --> 01:01:47,040 Speaker 19: to solve, and we also don't get to the benefit 1295 01:01:47,120 --> 01:01:48,640 Speaker 19: that we need out of it. So you've got to 1296 01:01:48,680 --> 01:01:50,920 Speaker 19: start at the top and work through it systematically. 1297 01:01:51,040 --> 01:01:53,040 Speaker 4: Okay, now before you see it also should be a 1298 01:01:53,080 --> 01:01:54,040 Speaker 4: cross party issue. 1299 01:01:54,120 --> 01:01:57,840 Speaker 23: I mean, how government runs and the efficiency is you know, no, 1300 01:01:58,000 --> 01:02:00,480 Speaker 23: it's in power forever, so it switches over. So it 1301 01:02:00,520 --> 01:02:03,240 Speaker 23: should be something that all the parties should be involved 1302 01:02:03,280 --> 01:02:04,920 Speaker 23: in saying how can we make this better? 1303 01:02:05,200 --> 01:02:05,360 Speaker 7: Yeah? 1304 01:02:05,400 --> 01:02:07,200 Speaker 2: Well true, but yeah, and we'll have a debate about 1305 01:02:07,200 --> 01:02:09,360 Speaker 2: bipartisanship and whether that's a good idea later or not. 1306 01:02:09,600 --> 01:02:11,920 Speaker 2: Listen really quickly from each of you, say so, if 1307 01:02:11,920 --> 01:02:14,520 Speaker 2: I had to ask you to define what New Zealand 1308 01:02:14,600 --> 01:02:17,400 Speaker 2: cuisine is, how would you describe it? 1309 01:02:17,520 --> 01:02:17,880 Speaker 4: Chips? 1310 01:02:19,080 --> 01:02:19,880 Speaker 2: What like fries? 1311 01:02:20,840 --> 01:02:21,080 Speaker 17: Yeah? 1312 01:02:21,360 --> 01:02:27,640 Speaker 23: Seven million servings a week? This is seven million servings 1313 01:02:27,680 --> 01:02:28,080 Speaker 23: a week. 1314 01:02:28,400 --> 01:02:32,560 Speaker 2: What do just to say about us? Okay, t please 1315 01:02:32,600 --> 01:02:33,280 Speaker 2: do better than that. 1316 01:02:34,840 --> 01:02:39,720 Speaker 19: I would describe New Zealand cuisine as fantastic. It's almost 1317 01:02:39,880 --> 01:02:44,160 Speaker 19: like the foundations of the best Italian cuisine. It's based 1318 01:02:44,200 --> 01:02:50,040 Speaker 19: on incredibly beautiful fresh produce and ingredients with amazing, amazing 1319 01:02:50,160 --> 01:02:53,440 Speaker 19: chefs who know just how to bring those ingredients to 1320 01:02:53,480 --> 01:02:57,360 Speaker 19: the foe without you know, without overeaging the pudding as 1321 01:02:57,360 --> 01:02:57,600 Speaker 19: it were. 1322 01:02:57,680 --> 01:03:00,160 Speaker 2: If I like that, you see that's better than chip. 1323 01:03:04,560 --> 01:03:06,120 Speaker 4: Shift using air frying. 1324 01:03:07,680 --> 01:03:09,960 Speaker 2: Lord above, Hey, guys, thank you so much. Lovely to 1325 01:03:09,960 --> 01:03:12,360 Speaker 2: talk to the pair of Autritius and Mark Sainsbury. I'm 1326 01:03:12,360 --> 01:03:13,920 Speaker 2: going to tell you why I asked them that question 1327 01:03:14,080 --> 01:03:16,080 Speaker 2: straight after this break, hang on eight away from six. 1328 01:03:17,280 --> 01:03:20,600 Speaker 1: It's the Heather Duper c Allen Drive Full Show podcast 1329 01:03:20,680 --> 01:03:23,400 Speaker 1: on my Art Radio powered by News Talk ZB. 1330 01:03:25,320 --> 01:03:27,760 Speaker 2: I should mention that the other company worth talking about 1331 01:03:27,800 --> 01:03:30,120 Speaker 2: today that's reported as a to Milk, Shane Solly will 1332 01:03:30,200 --> 01:03:31,480 Speaker 2: run us through it when he's with us in twenty 1333 01:03:31,520 --> 01:03:33,560 Speaker 2: minutes time, so it's five away from six. So the 1334 01:03:33,600 --> 01:03:37,320 Speaker 2: reason I was asking how to define New Zealand cuisine 1335 01:03:37,400 --> 01:03:39,840 Speaker 2: is because it was a question that was put to 1336 01:03:39,880 --> 01:03:43,240 Speaker 2: Jesse Mulligan in Today's Herald Today in the Viva Today, 1337 01:03:43,360 --> 01:03:45,480 Speaker 2: which is how do you define New Zealand food? We 1338 01:03:45,520 --> 01:03:47,880 Speaker 2: had visitors from the UK recently and they asked me this, 1339 01:03:48,120 --> 01:03:50,240 Speaker 2: and I must admit I was stumped, and I've spent 1340 01:03:50,280 --> 01:03:52,080 Speaker 2: a bit of time personally thinking about this. I was 1341 01:03:52,120 --> 01:03:55,000 Speaker 2: quite interested in Jesse's answer, and he writes the answer 1342 01:03:55,080 --> 01:03:57,640 Speaker 2: can go one of two ways. Classic beach batch cooking 1343 01:03:57,720 --> 01:03:59,360 Speaker 2: like they do at Depot this is the one by 1344 01:03:59,360 --> 01:04:01,840 Speaker 2: Sky City, and a where they max out the flavor, 1345 01:04:01,840 --> 01:04:04,320 Speaker 2: but they focus on a no fuss approach approach at 1346 01:04:04,320 --> 01:04:07,240 Speaker 2: the hob or New Zealand fine dining like you'd find 1347 01:04:07,280 --> 01:04:09,840 Speaker 2: it ahi, where every native element of a dish and 1348 01:04:09,880 --> 01:04:11,640 Speaker 2: there are often ten or so is used by the 1349 01:04:11,720 --> 01:04:14,240 Speaker 2: chef as a creative springboard to wow the eyes, nose, 1350 01:04:14,280 --> 01:04:17,240 Speaker 2: and mouth. I would also mention the various international influences 1351 01:04:17,280 --> 01:04:19,840 Speaker 2: that have coalesced into the New Zealand flavor palette. Our 1352 01:04:19,840 --> 01:04:22,400 Speaker 2: techniques are off in European our flavors borrow from around 1353 01:04:22,400 --> 01:04:24,880 Speaker 2: the Pacific rim and then almost running in a different 1354 01:04:24,960 --> 01:04:26,720 Speaker 2: race as the rise of the New Zealand pacifica food 1355 01:04:26,800 --> 01:04:30,080 Speaker 2: spearheaded by Michael Meredith and so on. Anyway, I think 1356 01:04:30,600 --> 01:04:35,240 Speaker 2: Jesse has completely over complicated this. I would surely if 1357 01:04:35,280 --> 01:04:38,000 Speaker 2: you if your answer, surely your answer has just got 1358 01:04:38,000 --> 01:04:41,320 Speaker 2: to be the New Zealand cuisine is defined by the 1359 01:04:41,400 --> 01:04:44,800 Speaker 2: seasonal ingredients. We just do fresh food, don't we. I mean, 1360 01:04:44,840 --> 01:04:46,480 Speaker 2: you go to a place like the States, go to 1361 01:04:46,520 --> 01:04:48,760 Speaker 2: New York, and if you're just wandering around trying to 1362 01:04:48,760 --> 01:04:50,880 Speaker 2: find like a little cafe at lunch that does fresh food, 1363 01:04:51,160 --> 01:04:53,480 Speaker 2: good luck to you. It is so hard to find it. 1364 01:04:53,760 --> 01:04:57,280 Speaker 2: We have fresh vegetables, fresh fruit, fresh meat, and so 1365 01:04:57,280 --> 01:04:59,080 Speaker 2: we don't have to fuss like the like the people 1366 01:04:59,120 --> 01:05:01,400 Speaker 2: in the UK, you know, they get little I mean 1367 01:05:01,520 --> 01:05:03,200 Speaker 2: meat and they put it into a pot and they 1368 01:05:03,200 --> 01:05:05,720 Speaker 2: cook it for like seven hundred days. So it melts 1369 01:05:05,760 --> 01:05:07,560 Speaker 2: on the mouth. But really it's just to disguise what 1370 01:05:07,680 --> 01:05:09,880 Speaker 2: shite meat it is. We just go, oh, look at 1371 01:05:09,880 --> 01:05:12,280 Speaker 2: that beautiful piece of steaks on the bobbi d. You 1372 01:05:12,320 --> 01:05:16,240 Speaker 2: are get your beautiful vegetables, and just that's it's not really. 1373 01:05:16,240 --> 01:05:17,680 Speaker 2: The noise that you make in the steamer is a 1374 01:05:17,680 --> 01:05:19,840 Speaker 2: but you steam it up when you serve it, so 1375 01:05:19,880 --> 01:05:23,560 Speaker 2: it's no fuss. It's really quick, it's fresh. It's it's 1376 01:05:23,680 --> 01:05:26,560 Speaker 2: led by how fresh the food is rather than by 1377 01:05:26,560 --> 01:05:30,000 Speaker 2: the saucers when I'm reading too much Jesse Mulligan or 1378 01:05:30,120 --> 01:05:34,080 Speaker 2: perhaps chips, chips or chips by the way, I did 1379 01:05:34,120 --> 01:05:36,400 Speaker 2: try a well, I tried to try a miture larder, 1380 01:05:36,400 --> 01:05:38,400 Speaker 2: because remember that's the other thing GC was pumping the 1381 01:05:38,440 --> 01:05:40,520 Speaker 2: other day. It was a miture lader. Totally about that 1382 01:05:40,600 --> 01:05:42,560 Speaker 2: experience when I get a chance. Nicola Willis is with 1383 01:05:42,600 --> 01:05:45,160 Speaker 2: us next on all those taxes, News talk ZB. 1384 01:05:52,400 --> 01:05:56,200 Speaker 1: What's up, what's down? What were the major calls and 1385 01:05:56,320 --> 01:05:58,880 Speaker 1: how will it affect the economy of the big business 1386 01:05:58,960 --> 01:06:01,520 Speaker 1: questions on the of the Business Hour where they had 1387 01:06:01,520 --> 01:06:05,760 Speaker 1: the Duplicyllen and mas insurance and investments, Your futures in 1388 01:06:06,040 --> 01:06:07,880 Speaker 1: good hands us talks that'd. 1389 01:06:07,760 --> 01:06:10,080 Speaker 2: Be even in coming up in the next hour. The 1390 01:06:10,120 --> 01:06:12,080 Speaker 2: property investors are going to talk us through what's going 1391 01:06:12,120 --> 01:06:14,920 Speaker 2: on with this flat housing market. Shane Soley on the 1392 01:06:14,960 --> 01:06:17,040 Speaker 2: companies that reported today, and then we'll head over to 1393 01:06:17,080 --> 01:06:19,040 Speaker 2: the UK as well at seven past six and of 1394 01:06:19,040 --> 01:06:21,920 Speaker 2: course with us as Nikola willis the Finance Minister High 1395 01:06:21,960 --> 01:06:26,760 Speaker 2: Nikola Hi, Ever, are you guys considering a storm damage tax? 1396 01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:29,320 Speaker 25: No, we're not so. 1397 01:06:29,440 --> 01:06:32,280 Speaker 2: Matthew Houston writing that a storm damage tax has been 1398 01:06:32,280 --> 01:06:34,000 Speaker 2: temporarily put on hold is what. 1399 01:06:36,200 --> 01:06:39,080 Speaker 25: He's very confused. So what we have is the Natural 1400 01:06:39,120 --> 01:06:43,160 Speaker 25: Hazards Commission. You'll be aware that's the old EQC and 1401 01:06:43,480 --> 01:06:46,960 Speaker 25: Home and Contents insurers. At the moment when you pay 1402 01:06:46,960 --> 01:06:49,040 Speaker 25: for your home and Contents insurance, there's a small levy. 1403 01:06:49,400 --> 01:06:52,760 Speaker 25: So the Natural Hazards Commission. Our government actually made the 1404 01:06:52,840 --> 01:06:57,560 Speaker 25: decision to pause a plan to increase that levee by 1405 01:06:57,720 --> 01:07:00,280 Speaker 25: a couple one hundred dollars a year while we were 1406 01:07:00,320 --> 01:07:03,640 Speaker 25: looking at what's happening with insurance affordability and uptake. So 1407 01:07:03,880 --> 01:07:07,040 Speaker 25: no plan to introduce a new weather tax. 1408 01:07:07,320 --> 01:07:10,080 Speaker 2: So the weather tax would be what that tax when 1409 01:07:10,080 --> 01:07:11,240 Speaker 2: it's finally brought back in. 1410 01:07:12,080 --> 01:07:14,040 Speaker 25: Look, you'd have to ask you, Matthew what he's talking 1411 01:07:14,040 --> 01:07:17,920 Speaker 25: about everyone at the moment, and they have for several 1412 01:07:18,040 --> 01:07:20,680 Speaker 25: years pays a small levy to the government when they 1413 01:07:20,720 --> 01:07:23,480 Speaker 25: take out home and Contents insurance and that's there to 1414 01:07:23,600 --> 01:07:27,160 Speaker 25: cover hazardous damage to your land in your house. 1415 01:07:27,320 --> 01:07:33,200 Speaker 2: Okay, the taxes that major banks play pay, you're having 1416 01:07:33,240 --> 01:07:35,360 Speaker 2: a look at that. Are you planning on doing something 1417 01:07:35,360 --> 01:07:35,960 Speaker 2: in this space? 1418 01:07:37,560 --> 01:07:40,320 Speaker 25: Well, what I have been doing, of course, is looking 1419 01:07:40,400 --> 01:07:44,040 Speaker 25: at the general rules that apply to our major Australian 1420 01:07:44,080 --> 01:07:46,320 Speaker 25: banks to make sure that the rules are all fair. 1421 01:07:46,760 --> 01:07:50,600 Speaker 25: One of the areas that ID are currently consulting with 1422 01:07:50,640 --> 01:07:55,040 Speaker 25: the major banks on is how they account for their 1423 01:07:55,080 --> 01:07:58,320 Speaker 25: profits in New Zealand versus offshore and therefore what tax 1424 01:07:58,360 --> 01:08:03,120 Speaker 25: implications that has. It's called branch sharing arrangements. They're in 1425 01:08:03,160 --> 01:08:06,000 Speaker 25: consultation with them to understand whether we're doing that fairly 1426 01:08:06,120 --> 01:08:09,760 Speaker 25: or not. And that's just basically what you do to 1427 01:08:09,840 --> 01:08:12,000 Speaker 25: have good tax law. You make sure that the way 1428 01:08:12,120 --> 01:08:14,680 Speaker 25: the tax law is working is that it's working is intended, 1429 01:08:14,720 --> 01:08:18,240 Speaker 25: that it's fair, that people aren't avoiding it in ways 1430 01:08:18,240 --> 01:08:22,080 Speaker 25: that weren't presumed they would when the rules we wouldn't place. 1431 01:08:21,960 --> 01:08:24,920 Speaker 2: Okay, but there is the possibility of adding a levee here, 1432 01:08:24,960 --> 01:08:25,400 Speaker 2: isn't there. 1433 01:08:26,640 --> 01:08:29,919 Speaker 25: Well, we have this year, of course, added the deposit 1434 01:08:30,040 --> 01:08:34,040 Speaker 25: Compensation Scheme levy, which mean essentially means that all New 1435 01:08:34,120 --> 01:08:37,040 Speaker 25: Zealanders know that up to ten thousand dollars of your 1436 01:08:37,080 --> 01:08:40,479 Speaker 25: sailings will be covered in the event of a major 1437 01:08:40,560 --> 01:08:43,160 Speaker 25: bank failure, and everyone's paying a levee for that. That 1438 01:08:43,280 --> 01:08:45,519 Speaker 25: was something initiated by the last government that we think 1439 01:08:45,600 --> 01:08:47,600 Speaker 25: is good policy, and we're continuing. 1440 01:08:47,439 --> 01:08:48,799 Speaker 2: No further levies on banks. 1441 01:08:50,280 --> 01:08:53,240 Speaker 25: Well, as you can see by the discussion that I'm having, 1442 01:08:53,360 --> 01:08:56,760 Speaker 25: the way that we tax banks is something that I 1443 01:08:56,800 --> 01:08:59,360 Speaker 25: think should be always under a view, always looking at 1444 01:08:59,400 --> 01:09:01,439 Speaker 25: to make sure that it's fair. But bottom line, for me, 1445 01:09:02,040 --> 01:09:04,559 Speaker 25: I want it to be fair on you, the user 1446 01:09:04,640 --> 01:09:07,080 Speaker 25: of banking services. I don't want it to be something 1447 01:09:07,120 --> 01:09:08,800 Speaker 25: that imposes an extra cost on you. 1448 01:09:09,080 --> 01:09:10,960 Speaker 2: So it is possible that there will be a bank levy. 1449 01:09:12,320 --> 01:09:15,200 Speaker 25: Well, there already are bank levies. Let banks pay levies 1450 01:09:15,240 --> 01:09:18,559 Speaker 25: to the Financial Markets Authority, they pay levs on the 1451 01:09:18,600 --> 01:09:22,320 Speaker 25: deposit compensation scheme, and of course they pay tax on 1452 01:09:22,360 --> 01:09:25,240 Speaker 25: the profits that they make. And as I said, I 1453 01:09:25,280 --> 01:09:28,839 Speaker 25: have been seeking advice on. Is all of that looking tidy? 1454 01:09:28,960 --> 01:09:29,880 Speaker 25: Is it all looking fair? 1455 01:09:31,080 --> 01:09:34,439 Speaker 2: Just rule it in all out right. It's possible if 1456 01:09:34,479 --> 01:09:35,960 Speaker 2: you don't rule it because but you know, we play 1457 01:09:35,960 --> 01:09:37,400 Speaker 2: this game. But then if you don't rule it out, 1458 01:09:37,400 --> 01:09:40,840 Speaker 2: then it means I go Bank's Levy tick. She's considering it. 1459 01:09:41,560 --> 01:09:44,840 Speaker 25: If I go into the budget ruling things in and out, 1460 01:09:44,880 --> 01:09:48,400 Speaker 25: what quickly happens and we went through this together budget 1461 01:09:48,960 --> 01:09:52,360 Speaker 25: you say, you say, oh, well, she ruled that out, 1462 01:09:52,360 --> 01:09:54,080 Speaker 25: but then she won't rule that out. So that means 1463 01:09:54,120 --> 01:09:56,559 Speaker 25: that that is happening, and it just becomes a deductive thing. 1464 01:09:56,800 --> 01:09:59,280 Speaker 25: Ahead of the budget, I just go into not ruling out, 1465 01:09:59,320 --> 01:10:02,920 Speaker 25: not ruling out, just acknowledging range of things. 1466 01:10:02,920 --> 01:10:05,160 Speaker 2: Are you aware that on another tax, which is the 1467 01:10:05,200 --> 01:10:07,439 Speaker 2: border tax, freightways has a problem and they would like 1468 01:10:07,439 --> 01:10:08,400 Speaker 2: a level playing field. 1469 01:10:10,439 --> 01:10:12,080 Speaker 25: I am aware of this, and I just want your 1470 01:10:12,120 --> 01:10:15,160 Speaker 25: readers to understand your listeners to understand what this is about, 1471 01:10:15,320 --> 01:10:19,559 Speaker 25: which is lots of people post COVID started buying things 1472 01:10:19,560 --> 01:10:23,559 Speaker 25: from Shine and Timu and online. The challenge with that 1473 01:10:23,760 --> 01:10:26,439 Speaker 25: is is it costs you, the general tax payer, a 1474 01:10:26,439 --> 01:10:28,160 Speaker 25: lot of money at the border. So by the time 1475 01:10:28,240 --> 01:10:30,760 Speaker 25: customs have done their thing, the border protection people have 1476 01:10:30,840 --> 01:10:34,240 Speaker 25: done their thing and it created a massive cost to 1477 01:10:34,280 --> 01:10:37,599 Speaker 25: the tax payer. And the principle that Casey Costello, the minister, 1478 01:10:37,680 --> 01:10:40,519 Speaker 25: has applied is actually the costs of all of that 1479 01:10:40,560 --> 01:10:42,840 Speaker 25: should be borne by the person buying the goods. So 1480 01:10:42,840 --> 01:10:46,400 Speaker 25: we should charge the career companies a price that reflects 1481 01:10:46,439 --> 01:10:48,719 Speaker 25: how much it actually costs to get those goods. 1482 01:10:48,760 --> 01:10:51,000 Speaker 2: And through this it looks pretty fair. That is a 1483 01:10:51,000 --> 01:10:53,200 Speaker 2: perfectly good explanation for it. But here's the thing. There's 1484 01:10:53,200 --> 01:10:55,640 Speaker 2: always a good explanation for another tax. But we've just 1485 01:10:55,680 --> 01:10:58,639 Speaker 2: talked about three taxes that you're considering. That's a lot 1486 01:10:58,680 --> 01:11:00,680 Speaker 2: of tax for a government that was not supposed to 1487 01:11:00,720 --> 01:11:02,000 Speaker 2: bring in any new taxes. 1488 01:11:02,280 --> 01:11:02,439 Speaker 13: Hey. 1489 01:11:02,520 --> 01:11:05,080 Speaker 25: Hey, the first one we considered is one where I 1490 01:11:05,200 --> 01:11:09,040 Speaker 25: rejected the advice of officials to increase the levee. 1491 01:11:09,240 --> 01:11:11,439 Speaker 2: I wasn't counting that. That's the fourth one. We're just 1492 01:11:11,439 --> 01:11:12,679 Speaker 2: talking about the three you are doing. 1493 01:11:13,600 --> 01:11:18,439 Speaker 25: So you're talking about for a tax gas tax. Well, well, 1494 01:11:19,120 --> 01:11:22,519 Speaker 25: I think every government has two things that should do. 1495 01:11:22,680 --> 01:11:25,720 Speaker 25: The first is minimize the new things that you do 1496 01:11:25,800 --> 01:11:28,960 Speaker 25: that will create costs for people. The second thing is 1497 01:11:29,000 --> 01:11:31,200 Speaker 25: you should ask who should pay that cost? Should it 1498 01:11:31,280 --> 01:11:34,639 Speaker 25: be you the general tax payer from your wages or 1499 01:11:34,760 --> 01:11:36,840 Speaker 25: is this something that should be paid by the people 1500 01:11:36,880 --> 01:11:38,200 Speaker 25: who are actually benefits. 1501 01:11:38,200 --> 01:11:40,599 Speaker 2: Which I love if when you put up the tax 1502 01:11:40,640 --> 01:11:43,280 Speaker 2: on the people the user pays, you reduce my taxes, 1503 01:11:44,080 --> 01:11:44,400 Speaker 2: but you. 1504 01:11:44,320 --> 01:11:46,640 Speaker 25: Don't, well, I think we need to come at it 1505 01:11:46,680 --> 01:11:49,080 Speaker 25: this way, which is before you put any user pays 1506 01:11:49,120 --> 01:11:52,640 Speaker 25: on or increase the user pays, first ask yourself the 1507 01:11:52,760 --> 01:11:55,600 Speaker 25: question does this really need to be done? And is 1508 01:11:55,640 --> 01:11:59,479 Speaker 25: it being done as efficiently as possible? And those are 1509 01:11:59,479 --> 01:12:03,040 Speaker 25: two questions our government always asks and we're very clear 1510 01:12:03,080 --> 01:12:03,439 Speaker 25: about that. 1511 01:12:03,600 --> 01:12:05,840 Speaker 2: Now, Chippy and the Labor Party are stirring trouble as 1512 01:12:05,880 --> 01:12:07,960 Speaker 2: you well know about the Indie FTA. So what can 1513 01:12:08,000 --> 01:12:09,639 Speaker 2: you tell us about this business that if we don't 1514 01:12:09,640 --> 01:12:12,439 Speaker 2: put the private investment into India within the next fifteen years, 1515 01:12:12,439 --> 01:12:14,000 Speaker 2: they may well pull market access. 1516 01:12:15,080 --> 01:12:17,760 Speaker 25: Well, look, what I understand from Minister maclay is that 1517 01:12:17,800 --> 01:12:21,320 Speaker 25: there is a really strong aspiration in the Free Trade 1518 01:12:21,360 --> 01:12:25,920 Speaker 25: Agreement to promote in investment, but it doesn't guarantee a 1519 01:12:25,960 --> 01:12:29,040 Speaker 25: specific amount of money, and that that's not what the 1520 01:12:29,080 --> 01:12:31,559 Speaker 25: agreement is saying. What it's saying is let's both agree 1521 01:12:31,640 --> 01:12:35,599 Speaker 25: to promote significant levels of investment in our respective countries. 1522 01:12:35,680 --> 01:12:39,439 Speaker 25: Let's put some aspirational targets out there, but it doesn't 1523 01:12:39,520 --> 01:12:42,639 Speaker 25: seek to hold governments accountable for ensuring that bottom line 1524 01:12:42,640 --> 01:12:43,040 Speaker 25: is okay. 1525 01:12:43,360 --> 01:12:46,000 Speaker 2: So when Chippy says that the Indian government is telling 1526 01:12:46,040 --> 01:12:48,960 Speaker 2: its people that if we don't invest adequately, they will 1527 01:12:49,000 --> 01:12:53,000 Speaker 2: pull market access and that's in the agreement, he's talking rubbish. 1528 01:12:53,040 --> 01:12:55,720 Speaker 25: Well, you'd have to ask Chris Hopkins about that. 1529 01:12:56,240 --> 01:12:58,559 Speaker 2: I have to ask you because you guys have actually 1530 01:12:58,640 --> 01:13:00,160 Speaker 2: seen the documents. 1531 01:13:00,680 --> 01:13:04,160 Speaker 25: Well, and I'm telling you specifically that the documents do 1532 01:13:04,240 --> 01:13:07,640 Speaker 25: not guarantee a specific amount of money. They have an 1533 01:13:07,640 --> 01:13:10,800 Speaker 25: obligation that we promote a certain level of investment, and 1534 01:13:10,840 --> 01:13:12,559 Speaker 25: of course there's a difference between those two. 1535 01:13:12,640 --> 01:13:13,000 Speaker 4: Thanks. 1536 01:13:13,080 --> 01:13:14,920 Speaker 2: Now, listen, what did you make of the Milford boss 1537 01:13:14,960 --> 01:13:17,000 Speaker 2: saying that the superage needs to go to seventy two 1538 01:13:17,040 --> 01:13:17,559 Speaker 2: or seventy three? 1539 01:13:17,640 --> 01:13:17,840 Speaker 4: Quick? 1540 01:13:17,880 --> 01:13:20,960 Speaker 25: Smart, Well, I thought that was a bit over the top, 1541 01:13:21,320 --> 01:13:25,000 Speaker 25: to be honest, I do, as we've discussed before, I 1542 01:13:25,000 --> 01:13:27,919 Speaker 25: think there is a discussion about how we ensure universal 1543 01:13:28,000 --> 01:13:31,960 Speaker 25: superannuation is sustainable into the future. I do think there's 1544 01:13:32,000 --> 01:13:34,519 Speaker 25: a proper conversation about the growing role for key we 1545 01:13:34,680 --> 01:13:39,960 Speaker 25: savor National has promoted in the past, gradually increasing the 1546 01:13:40,000 --> 01:13:42,640 Speaker 25: superage by up to a couple of years. But I 1547 01:13:42,680 --> 01:13:47,280 Speaker 25: haven't heard anyone suggest seventy three any time other than Milford. 1548 01:13:47,960 --> 01:13:50,080 Speaker 2: Nikola, thanks you very much.

It does need 1570 01:14:49,720 --> 01:14:52,599 Speaker 2: to go up. I mean if if there's some recent 1571 01:14:52,680 --> 01:14:54,599 Speaker 2: pressure on the government to put it up, basically because 1572 01:14:54,640 --> 01:14:56,280 Speaker 2: we're running out of money all the time dealing with 1573 01:14:56,320 --> 01:14:59,120 Speaker 2: all the natural hazards. It will be a brave government 1574 01:14:59,160 --> 01:15:01,280 Speaker 2: that does that. Though you can understand why this government 1575 01:15:01,320 --> 01:15:03,280 Speaker 2: has put a pause on it because have a look 1576 01:15:03,280 --> 01:15:05,599 Speaker 2: at your insurance bill. How are you feeling about that? Yeah, 1577 01:15:05,600 --> 01:15:07,960 Speaker 2: I don't like it either. Now imagine that levy goes up. 1578 01:15:08,040 --> 01:15:09,000 Speaker 2: None of us are going to love it. 1579 01:15:09,040 --> 01:15:09,200 Speaker 1: Are we? 1580 01:15:09,360 --> 01:15:10,800 Speaker 2: Nineteen past six now? 1581 01:15:10,960 --> 01:15:11,200 Speaker 19: Shane? 1582 01:15:11,240 --> 01:15:13,559 Speaker 2: Solely harbor asset management is with us ELLO. Shane. 1583 01:15:14,040 --> 01:15:14,479 Speaker 5: How you that? 1584 01:15:15,040 --> 01:15:17,360 Speaker 2: So the US inflation data came out late last week 1585 01:15:17,439 --> 01:15:19,720 Speaker 2: lower than expected. What do you make of it? 1586 01:15:20,640 --> 01:15:23,040 Speaker 5: Yeah? So US consider price inflation that was at on 1587 01:15:23,080 --> 01:15:25,479 Speaker 5: Friday for January came in at zero point two percent. 1588 01:15:25,880 --> 01:15:30,040 Speaker 5: There's the smallest increase since July heather all about lower 1589 01:15:30,160 --> 01:15:33,839 Speaker 5: energy prices, both electricity and gasoline. Key thing for markets 1590 01:15:34,000 --> 01:15:36,160 Speaker 5: was it wasn't a big blowout. So market's starting to 1591 01:15:36,200 --> 01:15:38,960 Speaker 5: think about us cpis at two and a half percent 1592 01:15:39,040 --> 01:15:41,880 Speaker 5: year on year US figure reserved. They may better cut 1593 01:15:41,960 --> 01:15:44,080 Speaker 5: rates a few more times, two or three times this year. 1594 01:15:44,800 --> 01:15:46,679 Speaker 5: Important for us here in New Zealand because it actually 1595 01:15:46,680 --> 01:15:48,920 Speaker 5: helps with the cost of borrowing for our government and 1596 01:15:48,960 --> 01:15:51,840 Speaker 5: some of our businesses, to netboost for a few other 1597 01:15:51,840 --> 01:15:52,759 Speaker 5: businesses as well. 1598 01:15:53,320 --> 01:15:55,920 Speaker 2: Now we've got obviously the RB and Z having a 1599 01:15:56,000 --> 01:15:58,320 Speaker 2: chat to us on Wednesday. We're expecting that they're going 1600 01:15:58,360 --> 01:15:59,599 Speaker 2: to hint at some rate increases. 1601 01:16:00,640 --> 01:16:03,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, the market's not pricing anything, and so forward interest 1602 01:16:04,000 --> 01:16:06,760 Speaker 5: rate curves aren't pricing thing for Wednesday, but they are 1603 01:16:06,880 --> 01:16:10,880 Speaker 5: pricing and an increase in September or October this year, 1604 01:16:11,000 --> 01:16:14,360 Speaker 5: so potential for another zero point two five percent in 1605 01:16:14,479 --> 01:16:18,200 Speaker 5: September October. In fact, the market's actually pricing and official 1606 01:16:18,280 --> 01:16:20,880 Speaker 5: cash rates to be at three percent by April twenty seven. 1607 01:16:21,040 --> 01:16:23,240 Speaker 5: That can be with two point two five percent today. 1608 01:16:24,640 --> 01:16:25,920 Speaker 5: There is a bit of a rest that markets have 1609 01:16:26,000 --> 01:16:28,800 Speaker 5: got ahead of themselves. We expect the Rizerve Bank to 1610 01:16:28,880 --> 01:16:31,559 Speaker 5: be quite balanced in its tone. It's a tough line. 1611 01:16:31,600 --> 01:16:33,479 Speaker 5: We've got inflation is a bit sticky, but then at 1612 01:16:33,520 --> 01:16:36,320 Speaker 5: the same time we've got very choppy economic data and 1613 01:16:36,479 --> 01:16:40,080 Speaker 5: labor markets they're not particularly strong, so maybe the policymakers 1614 01:16:40,120 --> 01:16:42,680 Speaker 5: can hold off on hiking rates in the near ten. 1615 01:16:43,320 --> 01:16:45,880 Speaker 2: Now we've had the three company results out today here 1616 01:16:45,920 --> 01:16:48,559 Speaker 2: in New Zealand. Give me, give me a run through 1617 01:16:48,600 --> 01:16:49,280 Speaker 2: what you thought of them? 1618 01:16:49,920 --> 01:16:51,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, it was.

Is now a bit of 1624 01:17:09,160 --> 01:17:12,120 Speaker 5: excitement about the Chinese marriage data getting better, so that's 1625 01:17:12,160 --> 01:17:15,160 Speaker 5: helpful for future demand for infant formula. Shea prices up 1626 01:17:15,200 --> 01:17:17,880 Speaker 5: five percent to ten dollars fifty to day, contacting a 1627 01:17:18,200 --> 01:17:20,639 Speaker 5: sort of result that the big one there Wordesday announced 1628 01:17:20,680 --> 01:17:23,559 Speaker 5: a five hundred and twenty five million dollar new equity 1629 01:17:23,680 --> 01:17:27,280 Speaker 5: rays to fund some of the big matricity generating capacity 1630 01:17:27,320 --> 01:17:30,160 Speaker 5: development they're doing. Sheep price on that is about eight 1631 01:17:30,320 --> 01:17:33,160 Speaker 5: seventy five.

Freightways. 1634 01:17:40,680 --> 01:17:43,840 Speaker 5: Good solid delivery from freightways. Interesting that they're talking about 1635 01:17:43,840 --> 01:17:47,559 Speaker 5: the economy steadily improving, but they're still seeing their economy 1636 01:17:47,600 --> 01:17:50,320 Speaker 5: business grow better than their premium business.

So he's just a 1653 01:18:34,800 --> 01:18:37,280 Speaker 2: little line that was slipped in there. So the what 1654 01:18:37,360 --> 01:18:40,439 Speaker 2: the piece is about is how Super rugby's basically on 1655 01:18:40,520 --> 01:18:43,560 Speaker 2: the app. It's doing really well. People are starting to 1656 01:18:43,600 --> 01:18:45,560 Speaker 2: watch it and enjoy it very much. Again, but you 1657 01:18:45,640 --> 01:18:48,280 Speaker 2: can't ignore, he says, the arkillers heel, which is the 1658 01:18:48,360 --> 01:18:50,400 Speaker 2: dominance of the Chiefs and the Crusaders, because of course 1659 01:18:50,439 --> 01:18:52,719 Speaker 2: the Crusaders have won eight of the past nine titles, 1660 01:18:52,960 --> 01:18:55,439 Speaker 2: and then in the last decade, you won't find a 1661 01:18:55,560 --> 01:18:57,560 Speaker 2: final that hasn't got one of these two squads in it. 1662 01:18:57,640 --> 01:18:59,640 Speaker 2: Right in the last ten years, either the Crusaders or 1663 01:18:59,680 --> 01:19:03,960 Speaker 2: the chief are in the final. So what he says 1664 01:19:04,080 --> 01:19:07,439 Speaker 2: is he thinks everyone realizes that we have to have 1665 01:19:07,720 --> 01:19:12,160 Speaker 2: that conversation and investigate what we can do, whether that's 1666 01:19:12,240 --> 01:19:15,760 Speaker 2: and I quote, whether that's distribution of talent or what 1667 01:19:15,920 --> 01:19:18,400 Speaker 2: are the mechanism salary caps, those types of things we 1668 01:19:18,560 --> 01:19:22,200 Speaker 2: need to think about. Now, distribution of talent? Does that 1669 01:19:22,360 --> 01:19:24,479 Speaker 2: mean is that a little clue here is that is 1670 01:19:24,560 --> 01:19:26,760 Speaker 2: that the old trading the players thing that we've talked 1671 01:19:26,760 --> 01:19:29,080 Speaker 2: about before. Is that the old letting some of the 1672 01:19:29,120 --> 01:19:32,640 Speaker 2: all blacks go and play for super rugby teams in 1673 01:19:32,680 --> 01:19:35,720 Speaker 2: Australia that we've talked about. Because I don't know about you, 1674 01:19:35,840 --> 01:19:37,639 Speaker 2: that's a bold call, but that's what I would be into, 1675 01:19:37,640 --> 01:19:39,519 Speaker 2: because all of a sudden you wouldn't have all the 1676 01:19:39,600 --> 01:19:41,519 Speaker 2: players and the crews, all the players packed into the 1677 01:19:41,520 --> 01:19:43,240 Speaker 2: Crusaders and the Chiefs, but you might have some of 1678 01:19:43,240 --> 01:19:45,759 Speaker 2: them playing for the war retars actually making that squad 1679 01:19:45,840 --> 01:19:47,080 Speaker 2: half good. Six twenty six. 1680 01:19:47,800 --> 01:19:54,080 Speaker 1: There's no business like show business, I think so. 1681 01:19:54,280 --> 01:19:57,560 Speaker 2: Sam the Reducer is prepared to make a call. He 1682 01:19:57,720 --> 01:20:00,479 Speaker 2: thinks old Hollywood fashion is back and it's all thanks 1683 01:20:00,520 --> 01:20:01,800 Speaker 2: to the latest celebrity wedding. 1684 01:20:02,080 --> 01:20:02,240 Speaker 4: Now. 1685 01:20:02,320 --> 01:20:05,160 Speaker 2: You may know Maya Hawk from playing Robin on Stranger Things, 1686 01:20:05,320 --> 01:20:07,640 Speaker 2: or she's also the voice of Anxiety and inside Out too. 1687 01:20:08,040 --> 01:20:10,160 Speaker 2: She's the daughter of Ethan Hawk and Uma Thurman, so 1688 01:20:10,280 --> 01:20:13,479 Speaker 2: she is a knee po chick. Anyway. She married her 1689 01:20:13,640 --> 01:20:16,880 Speaker 2: longtime musician boyfriend Christian Lee Hudson in the New York 1690 01:20:16,920 --> 01:20:20,480 Speaker 2: City snow on Valentine's Day. She wore a plain, sleeveless 1691 01:20:20,520 --> 01:20:23,280 Speaker 2: boat neck white gown, no lay snow frills, but a 1692 01:20:23,360 --> 01:20:25,600 Speaker 2: gigantic skirt with lots of layers. She also had a 1693 01:20:25,680 --> 01:20:28,880 Speaker 2: fabulous matching jacket covered in ostrich feathers, and the kids 1694 01:20:28,920 --> 01:20:32,320 Speaker 2: are saying that this marks the renaissance of classic glamour. 1695 01:20:33,040 --> 01:20:35,120 Speaker 26: Before we go any further, I need to take a 1696 01:20:35,160 --> 01:20:38,599 Speaker 26: second for mayosdra Of course, it is oversized, it has 1697 01:20:38,680 --> 01:20:41,320 Speaker 26: feathers on on it. It's very much giving old Hollywood 1698 01:20:41,360 --> 01:20:43,960 Speaker 26: glamb and I'm obsessed, especially given the fact that they 1699 01:20:44,000 --> 01:20:45,799 Speaker 26: got married in New York City and it's been freezing 1700 01:20:45,880 --> 01:20:48,280 Speaker 26: here and these photos absolutely look sunning. 1701 01:20:48,360 --> 01:20:49,519 Speaker 5: And Timeland I. 1702 01:20:49,600 --> 01:20:51,640 Speaker 2: Called her a knee po chick, but he might have 1703 01:20:51,760 --> 01:20:54,320 Speaker 2: meant that I should say neepo chic, but you know 1704 01:20:55,040 --> 01:20:58,560 Speaker 2: who cares about pronunciation anyway. The low key event was 1705 01:20:58,600 --> 01:21:01,720 Speaker 2: attended by the actresses Fame Missparents, alongside a majority of 1706 01:21:01,760 --> 01:21:04,880 Speaker 2: her Stranger Things cast mates. Notably missing, though, was her 1707 01:21:05,040 --> 01:21:08,439 Speaker 2: co star Millie Bobby Brown, which has fueled rumors of 1708 01:21:08,560 --> 01:21:11,600 Speaker 2: tension within the cast. It could obviously just be a 1709 01:21:11,680 --> 01:21:14,560 Speaker 2: scheduling conflict, but that would be far too sensible for 1710 01:21:14,640 --> 01:21:18,519 Speaker 2: the Internet, wouldn't it. Now that we've covered the chick 1711 01:21:18,560 --> 01:21:20,800 Speaker 2: sheek thing, we are going to loop all the way back. 1712 01:21:20,840 --> 01:21:23,360 Speaker 2: We're gonna circle back, as they say, we're gonna circle 1713 01:21:23,479 --> 01:21:26,600 Speaker 2: back later on to roofs and roofs because there is 1714 01:21:26,680 --> 01:21:28,400 Speaker 2: more on this that we need to cover off. But 1715 01:21:28,520 --> 01:21:30,840 Speaker 2: next let's deal with the important stuff. What's going on 1716 01:21:31,000 --> 01:21:33,880 Speaker 2: with the housing market and why aren't prices increasing, especially 1717 01:21:33,920 --> 01:21:38,040 Speaker 2: in Wellington and Auckland. Probably investors on that next falls. 1718 01:21:40,680 --> 01:21:41,400 Speaker 13: It was fun. 1719 01:21:43,840 --> 01:21:44,640 Speaker 1: You'll say no. 1720 01:21:53,880 --> 01:21:56,840 Speaker 2: If you read like a ready. 1721 01:21:58,360 --> 01:22:02,760 Speaker 1: Everything from SMEs, the big corporates, the business hour with head, 1722 01:22:02,800 --> 01:22:06,839 Speaker 1: the duper cl and mass insurance and investments, your futures 1723 01:22:06,960 --> 01:22:09,160 Speaker 1: in good hands, news talks, that'd be. 1724 01:22:10,760 --> 01:22:18,840 Speaker 15: You don't go, oh god, shudo, you know you've got 1725 01:22:18,880 --> 01:22:19,760 Speaker 15: tomorrow right. 1726 01:22:19,840 --> 01:22:21,640 Speaker 2: Kevin Gray is going to be with us shortly. The 1727 01:22:22,240 --> 01:22:24,640 Speaker 2: Olympic Games Shop is in trouble because it has been 1728 01:22:24,760 --> 01:22:27,519 Speaker 2: selling t shirts featuring the you know, the logos and 1729 01:22:27,560 --> 01:22:30,400 Speaker 2: the designs of various Olympic Games. And of course there 1730 01:22:30,439 --> 01:22:33,920 Speaker 2: was an Olympic Games in nineteen thirty six in Berlin, 1731 01:22:34,360 --> 01:22:36,679 Speaker 2: and so that's not like a bit tied with the Nazis, 1732 01:22:36,760 --> 01:22:38,519 Speaker 2: so we can't possibly be having any of those t 1733 01:22:38,680 --> 01:22:41,080 Speaker 2: shirts become very controversial. Gavin Gray will run us through 1734 01:22:41,120 --> 01:22:42,760 Speaker 2: that when he's with us in ten minutes time, back 1735 01:22:42,800 --> 01:22:45,360 Speaker 2: from his holiday, twenty four away from seven. Now, the 1736 01:22:45,439 --> 01:22:48,559 Speaker 2: property market seems to have missed the memo about economic 1737 01:22:48,720 --> 01:22:51,840 Speaker 2: green shoots. New data out from Iria and z the 1738 01:22:51,920 --> 01:22:54,000 Speaker 2: Real Estate Institute shows a drop in both the house 1739 01:22:54,040 --> 01:22:56,760 Speaker 2: prices and the sales. The house price indexes down zero 1740 01:22:56,800 --> 01:22:58,960 Speaker 2: point seven percent of where it was this time last year. 1741 01:22:59,120 --> 01:23:01,960 Speaker 2: National sales down five point four percent on last month. 1742 01:23:02,320 --> 01:23:04,880 Speaker 2: Matt Ball is from the Property Investors Federation and with 1743 01:23:05,000 --> 01:23:09,320 Speaker 2: us evening Matt Hey, Heather, Now, is this just January 1744 01:23:09,400 --> 01:23:11,280 Speaker 2: of slow? It's always the season all thing? 1745 01:23:11,360 --> 01:23:11,519 Speaker 27: Is that? 1746 01:23:11,560 --> 01:23:12,360 Speaker 2: What's going on here? 1747 01:23:13,280 --> 01:23:13,439 Speaker 5: Oh? 1748 01:23:13,520 --> 01:23:15,680 Speaker 27: Look, I wouldn't get too fixated on what happens month 1749 01:23:15,720 --> 01:23:18,479 Speaker 27: to month. I think what's more important is the bigger picture. 1750 01:23:20,040 --> 01:23:21,639 Speaker 27: It does look like we're going to have a reasonably 1751 01:23:21,720 --> 01:23:24,320 Speaker 27: flat housing market for a little while. Some people are 1752 01:23:24,360 --> 01:23:27,160 Speaker 27: predicted maybe two percent growth this year. And it's all 1753 01:23:27,160 --> 01:23:30,719 Speaker 27: about the macros. It's supply and demand. There's more supply 1754 01:23:30,960 --> 01:23:33,080 Speaker 27: than a lot of places and less demand. 1755 01:23:33,240 --> 01:23:34,280 Speaker 13: Yeah, that's what drives it. 1756 01:23:34,720 --> 01:23:37,200 Speaker 2: This is the migration data, right, This This feeds back 1757 01:23:37,200 --> 01:23:39,240 Speaker 2: into the number of people. But add to that as well, 1758 01:23:39,320 --> 01:23:41,080 Speaker 2: do you not think that what is playing a role 1759 01:23:41,200 --> 01:23:43,519 Speaker 2: here is the expectations of an OCR lift. 1760 01:23:45,160 --> 01:23:47,960 Speaker 27: Oh absolutely, I think that is damping things down a 1761 01:23:48,040 --> 01:23:51,280 Speaker 27: wee bit. Yes, but it's still good buying conditions. Like 1762 01:23:51,360 --> 01:23:54,479 Speaker 27: if you're a first time buyer, now still a pretty 1763 01:23:54,479 --> 01:23:57,240 Speaker 27: good time to get into the market. Also, if you're 1764 01:23:57,240 --> 01:23:59,760 Speaker 27: a property investor, it's never a bad time to buy. 1765 01:24:00,240 --> 01:24:02,680 Speaker 27: If you do your mass, do you make sure the 1766 01:24:02,760 --> 01:24:05,439 Speaker 27: fundamentals are right, you can get some growth out of 1767 01:24:05,520 --> 01:24:07,559 Speaker 27: it and get some good cash lood, it's a good 1768 01:24:07,600 --> 01:24:08,200 Speaker 27: time to buy it. 1769 01:24:08,320 --> 01:24:10,639 Speaker 13: So you know, I wouldn't be too sad. 1770 01:24:12,160 --> 01:24:14,799 Speaker 2: What about the election? How much of that is causing 1771 01:24:14,840 --> 01:24:16,200 Speaker 2: people to sit back a little bit? 1772 01:24:18,680 --> 01:24:22,360 Speaker 27: Yes, I agree the election would definitely give people pause. 1773 01:24:22,760 --> 01:24:24,439 Speaker 13: It might be a bit early for that effect. 1774 01:24:24,720 --> 01:24:25,320 Speaker 17: Although with the. 1775 01:24:25,320 --> 01:24:28,720 Speaker 27: Pole so tight, although i'd want tonight's fold, I would 1776 01:24:28,760 --> 01:24:31,479 Speaker 27: tight poles, people might be sort of pulling back a 1777 01:24:31,520 --> 01:24:34,879 Speaker 27: little bit. That's probably more going to affect your investors. 1778 01:24:34,920 --> 01:24:36,800 Speaker 27: I'd be worried that Labour's going to come back in 1779 01:24:36,920 --> 01:24:40,160 Speaker 27: and remove interests of auctibility again, but I would have 1780 01:24:40,200 --> 01:24:42,320 Speaker 27: thought first time buyers wouldn't be too worried about that. 1781 01:24:43,439 --> 01:24:45,040 Speaker 2: Now, where are you sitting on. I mean see the 1782 01:24:45,080 --> 01:24:47,680 Speaker 2: predictions are two four percent five percent growth in the 1783 01:24:47,720 --> 01:24:48,639 Speaker 2: housing market this year. 1784 01:24:48,640 --> 01:24:51,559 Speaker 13: Where do you sit yep, I'd be at the lower 1785 01:24:51,640 --> 01:24:53,679 Speaker 13: end of the range. I think more like two percent. 1786 01:24:54,160 --> 01:24:58,320 Speaker 27: There's plenty of supply, particularly in Auckland and Wellington, demand 1787 01:24:58,360 --> 01:25:00,320 Speaker 27: as low migration as low as your point O out 1788 01:25:00,680 --> 01:25:04,080 Speaker 27: in Wellington that loss of jobs. But then again, if 1789 01:25:04,120 --> 01:25:08,360 Speaker 27: you're in the South Island, christ Church, Otago and Southland 1790 01:25:08,680 --> 01:25:11,040 Speaker 27: are doing pretty well. And I note that the targo 1791 01:25:11,120 --> 01:25:13,960 Speaker 27: in Southland they're actually up above the peak price now, 1792 01:25:14,080 --> 01:25:16,439 Speaker 27: so there are parts of the country that are doing well. 1793 01:25:16,720 --> 01:25:18,559 Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, hey, Matt, thank you very much. I really 1794 01:25:18,600 --> 01:25:22,000 Speaker 2: appreciate your insight. That's Matt Bull, Property Investors Federation Advocacy Manager, 1795 01:25:22,600 --> 01:25:23,919 Speaker 2: twenty one away from seven. 1796 01:25:24,080 --> 01:25:25,600 Speaker 1: Ever Dupless Alan. 1797 01:25:25,439 --> 01:25:27,000 Speaker 2: That he sells to me like a pretty good time 1798 01:25:27,040 --> 01:25:29,400 Speaker 2: to buy. So, oh, I need to tell you about this. 1799 01:25:29,520 --> 01:25:31,280 Speaker 2: If you're one of those people who's into the intimate 1800 01:25:31,360 --> 01:25:35,000 Speaker 2: and fasting, you might want to think about the torture 1801 01:25:35,000 --> 01:25:38,040 Speaker 2: that you're putting yourself through again because it is probably 1802 01:25:38,160 --> 01:25:41,080 Speaker 2: not working. There is a major review of studies which 1803 01:25:41,120 --> 01:25:43,800 Speaker 2: has been done by the Cochrane Collaboration and Basically what 1804 01:25:43,840 --> 01:25:46,479 Speaker 2: they've done is this is like a you know, when 1805 01:25:46,479 --> 01:25:48,640 Speaker 2: they analyze, they take pull all the studies together and 1806 01:25:48,680 --> 01:25:51,280 Speaker 2: then analyze across all the studies what they found. So 1807 01:25:51,320 --> 01:25:54,880 Speaker 2: they've analyzed the evidence from twenty two randomized clinical trials 1808 01:25:55,200 --> 01:25:59,400 Speaker 2: which involve nearly two thousand adults across North America, Europe, China, Australia, 1809 01:25:59,439 --> 01:26:02,439 Speaker 2: South America. You'd have to say pretty comprehensive. What they 1810 01:26:02,600 --> 01:26:05,120 Speaker 2: found is it is no better. Right, So, if you 1811 01:26:05,120 --> 01:26:06,759 Speaker 2: can do the weird thing where you're sort of starving 1812 01:26:06,800 --> 01:26:09,400 Speaker 2: half the time and eaten half the time, you're not 1813 01:26:09,479 --> 01:26:11,960 Speaker 2: going to lose any more weight than if you simply 1814 01:26:12,040 --> 01:26:16,040 Speaker 2: eat properly, like follow proper dietary advice, which is eat 1815 01:26:16,080 --> 01:26:18,840 Speaker 2: your whole grains, eat your meat, eat your vegetables, eat 1816 01:26:18,880 --> 01:26:22,040 Speaker 2: lots of fruit, try to like calorie counting. Basically that's 1817 01:26:22,240 --> 01:26:24,400 Speaker 2: the way to go. Or in fact, you're not going 1818 01:26:24,439 --> 01:26:26,519 Speaker 2: to lose any more weight. And if you did nothing 1819 01:26:26,560 --> 01:26:28,920 Speaker 2: at all, So what does that say, because isn't the 1820 01:26:28,960 --> 01:26:30,640 Speaker 2: thing that it does where you do the intimate and 1821 01:26:30,720 --> 01:26:33,639 Speaker 2: fast thing. You go, Oh, I starve myself for seventeen 1822 01:26:33,720 --> 01:26:36,160 Speaker 2: thousand hours this week. I feel fantastic. But then what 1823 01:26:36,280 --> 01:26:37,960 Speaker 2: happens is when you get in front of the food. 1824 01:26:38,040 --> 01:26:42,240 Speaker 2: W u uh ha, gorge yourself, don't you. You've undo 1825 01:26:42,320 --> 01:26:44,280 Speaker 2: all of the good work. The only way to go, 1826 01:26:44,479 --> 01:26:46,720 Speaker 2: I've come round to this. The only way to go 1827 01:26:47,400 --> 01:26:49,479 Speaker 2: is basically the calorie count. You're going to have to 1828 01:26:49,560 --> 01:26:51,120 Speaker 2: end up there like they did in the eighties, you know, 1829 01:26:51,160 --> 01:26:52,639 Speaker 2: when they were going there, like I can. I only 1830 01:26:52,720 --> 01:26:55,120 Speaker 2: have one little I've eaten all my calories for the week. 1831 01:26:55,200 --> 01:26:57,240 Speaker 2: This one little piece of lettuce is all I have left. 1832 01:26:57,479 --> 01:26:59,040 Speaker 2: That's what you need to do. And then before you know, 1833 01:26:59,200 --> 01:27:01,439 Speaker 2: because it's got to that, you're putting out more energy 1834 01:27:01,479 --> 01:27:04,760 Speaker 2: than you're bringing in. Anyway, speaking of which, so I 1835 01:27:04,840 --> 01:27:07,960 Speaker 2: was telling you last week that Jesse Mulligan was raving 1836 01:27:08,000 --> 01:27:09,479 Speaker 2: about the Mitu Lada and I had to go and 1837 01:27:09,560 --> 01:27:12,559 Speaker 2: try the Mitchillada. Well, I you know, true to my word, 1838 01:27:12,720 --> 01:27:14,840 Speaker 2: I went to a Chilian place. One of my friends 1839 01:27:14,920 --> 01:27:16,840 Speaker 2: loved South American and she's like, let's go, and I said, 1840 01:27:16,960 --> 01:27:19,120 Speaker 2: take you out for your birthday for dinner. So she 1841 01:27:19,200 --> 01:27:21,240 Speaker 2: picked a Chilian place that I one hundred percent would 1842 01:27:21,240 --> 01:27:25,920 Speaker 2: not recommend to anybody ever. It was rubbish, but not 1843 01:27:26,120 --> 01:27:27,479 Speaker 2: just because of the story I'm going to tell you, 1844 01:27:27,520 --> 01:27:29,240 Speaker 2: but just in general. But I went in there and 1845 01:27:29,280 --> 01:27:31,160 Speaker 2: I was like, fantastic, this is my opportunity. I said, 1846 01:27:31,160 --> 01:27:33,400 Speaker 2: can I please order a Mitchellada and they were like absolutely, 1847 01:27:33,479 --> 01:27:36,240 Speaker 2: And then they delivered me what did not look like 1848 01:27:36,280 --> 01:27:38,240 Speaker 2: a matullada, but just like a straight beer. Now, if 1849 01:27:38,280 --> 01:27:40,320 Speaker 2: you know what a Mitchellada is, a Mitchellada, according to 1850 01:27:40,439 --> 01:27:42,840 Speaker 2: Jesse Mulligan, is half a beer, half a half a 1851 01:27:43,400 --> 01:27:45,920 Speaker 2: tomato juice. This was not a red thing. This was 1852 01:27:46,040 --> 01:27:48,760 Speaker 2: just a standard beer. I said, this is not a Mitchellada. Like, 1853 01:27:48,880 --> 01:27:51,760 Speaker 2: yes it is. Oh you wanted the Mexican Mitchellada. I 1854 01:27:51,880 --> 01:27:55,000 Speaker 2: was like, ah, yes, that's what I was. So now 1855 01:27:55,040 --> 01:27:57,519 Speaker 2: there's a distinction. Apparently, you can't just go and order 1856 01:27:57,560 --> 01:28:00,880 Speaker 2: a mitu Lada. You've got order a Mexican Mitchullada mitchell Lada. 1857 01:28:01,240 --> 01:28:03,720 Speaker 2: If you're wondering what is there, well that is just 1858 01:28:03,920 --> 01:28:07,439 Speaker 2: a beer with some lemon juice in it. That's just 1859 01:28:07,520 --> 01:28:09,680 Speaker 2: a corona, now, isn't it, Because that's what you're doing, 1860 01:28:09,840 --> 01:28:11,320 Speaker 2: checking the lemon in the top and you're drinking the 1861 01:28:11,360 --> 01:28:13,559 Speaker 2: beer pasted it. So there's that. But then it did 1862 01:28:13,600 --> 01:28:15,080 Speaker 2: have a little spice. They put it in a cup 1863 01:28:15,120 --> 01:28:16,760 Speaker 2: for you and a glass and then they put a 1864 01:28:16,800 --> 01:28:19,559 Speaker 2: spicy salt around that. Woo, it was rubbish. 1865 01:28:19,800 --> 01:28:22,240 Speaker 8: That sounds I was gonna say, sounds all right to 1866 01:28:22,240 --> 01:28:22,560 Speaker 8: finished it. 1867 01:28:22,640 --> 01:28:25,040 Speaker 2: I probably paid I probably paid a cocktail price for 1868 01:28:25,120 --> 01:28:27,439 Speaker 2: what was just a corona essentially with a bit of 1869 01:28:27,520 --> 01:28:29,840 Speaker 2: spice on the top. AnyWho, I got to just chuck 1870 01:28:29,920 --> 01:28:32,920 Speaker 2: some tabasco in it, and anyway, so then after I 1871 01:28:33,080 --> 01:28:34,920 Speaker 2: like sort of forced my way through it, I was like, 1872 01:28:35,000 --> 01:28:37,200 Speaker 2: can I now please order a Mexican Mitchell Lada And 1873 01:28:37,280 --> 01:28:39,120 Speaker 2: they were like, oh no, we haven't got any tomato juice. 1874 01:28:39,160 --> 01:28:42,479 Speaker 2: Oh give up, I give up. So anyway, I cannot 1875 01:28:42,520 --> 01:28:44,720 Speaker 2: this week. I was hoping to this week be able 1876 01:28:44,800 --> 01:28:46,760 Speaker 2: to tell you, yes, it's the most amazing thing, because 1877 01:28:46,800 --> 01:28:48,960 Speaker 2: Jack Tamee was like, stelacious thought, I just want to 1878 01:28:49,000 --> 01:28:50,400 Speaker 2: be able to tell you it's the most amazing thing 1879 01:28:50,400 --> 01:28:52,240 Speaker 2: I've ever had in my whole entire life. But I can't. 1880 01:28:52,240 --> 01:28:53,839 Speaker 2: I'll just wait. I have to go to another restaurant 1881 01:28:53,880 --> 01:28:56,160 Speaker 2: and try it again. Just a quick shout out to 1882 01:28:58,120 --> 01:29:04,439 Speaker 2: Nancy Lou who probably needs to lay off the sugars 1883 01:29:04,439 --> 01:29:08,120 Speaker 2: in the morning, or just off LinkedIn all together. Nancy 1884 01:29:08,200 --> 01:29:11,160 Speaker 2: lou is quite enthusiastic about Chris Luxen for holding up 1885 01:29:11,200 --> 01:29:14,080 Speaker 2: the umbrella today. So if you haven't caught up on this, 1886 01:29:14,280 --> 01:29:16,640 Speaker 2: what happened is Chris was at the announcement of the 1887 01:29:16,680 --> 01:29:18,800 Speaker 2: state of origin and this guy who looks like the 1888 01:29:18,880 --> 01:29:21,679 Speaker 2: image of Epstein gets up to speak and it starts 1889 01:29:21,800 --> 01:29:26,360 Speaker 2: raining and according to Nancy while let me just quote her, enthusiastic, 1890 01:29:26,800 --> 01:29:28,760 Speaker 2: Luxeon gets up with the umbrella. This is what she said. 1891 01:29:29,560 --> 01:29:32,240 Speaker 2: This is the Christopher Luxe. And I know, while people 1892 01:29:32,280 --> 01:29:35,400 Speaker 2: were scrambling for umbrellas, the Prime Minister grabbed one and 1893 01:29:35,560 --> 01:29:38,639 Speaker 2: walked straight onto the stage, holding it over the speaker 1894 01:29:38,760 --> 01:29:43,000 Speaker 2: mid speech. No cameras called, no drama, just instinct. That's leadership, 1895 01:29:43,200 --> 01:29:50,760 Speaker 2: kind grounded, energetic, action oriented. My leader, our prime minister. Now, 1896 01:29:51,800 --> 01:29:54,840 Speaker 2: I mean, I want to say, that is actually very 1897 01:29:54,880 --> 01:29:57,439 Speaker 2: good from Christopher Luxeen, because for the most part, prime 1898 01:29:57,479 --> 01:30:00,200 Speaker 2: ministers expect to have the umbrella held for them. They 1899 01:30:00,280 --> 01:30:02,879 Speaker 2: do not go and waste their energy and their calories 1900 01:30:02,920 --> 01:30:05,280 Speaker 2: on holding the umbrella for anybody else. So it was, 1901 01:30:05,479 --> 01:30:08,439 Speaker 2: it was, it was a good move from him, very nice, 1902 01:30:08,920 --> 01:30:11,280 Speaker 2: very very proud of him for being a decent human 1903 01:30:11,360 --> 01:30:13,720 Speaker 2: like has Mum brought him up to be Nancy. I'm 1904 01:30:13,760 --> 01:30:17,000 Speaker 2: the other man has gone all wartime propaganda on this, 1905 01:30:17,160 --> 01:30:21,000 Speaker 2: hasn't she my leader, our prime minister?

Thirteen Away from seven and Gavin Gray 1917 01:30:52,640 --> 01:30:56,479 Speaker 2: are UK correspondent is back from his holiday. Oh, Gavin Hiver, 1918 01:30:56,600 --> 01:30:59,320 Speaker 2: have now tell me about this measles outbreak in London? 1919 01:30:59,360 --> 01:30:59,920 Speaker 2: How bad is that? 1920 01:31:00,040 --> 01:31:01,320 Speaker 1: Yeah? 1921 01:31:01,400 --> 01:31:04,519 Speaker 28: It's getting pretty serious and it appears to be mostly 1922 01:31:04,600 --> 01:31:07,680 Speaker 28: over children that have not been fully immunized. And that's 1923 01:31:07,720 --> 01:31:10,600 Speaker 28: why the authorities are trying to really publicize this to 1924 01:31:10,640 --> 01:31:13,200 Speaker 28: say that people. Look, if you're in the UK you 1925 01:31:13,280 --> 01:31:16,479 Speaker 28: should have the immunization, and particularly in North London where 1926 01:31:16,560 --> 01:31:19,639 Speaker 28: now dozens of people from a number of different schools 1927 01:31:20,200 --> 01:31:24,439 Speaker 28: have contracted measles and it looks like one in five 1928 01:31:24,920 --> 01:31:27,960 Speaker 28: of them are being admitted to hospital. It's a very 1929 01:31:28,080 --> 01:31:31,840 Speaker 28: fast spreading measles outbreak. It is I think particularly unpleasant 1930 01:31:31,880 --> 01:31:36,559 Speaker 28: this particular strain, and the local doctors are saying people 1931 01:31:36,680 --> 01:31:41,000 Speaker 28: need to get this immunization done quickly because otherwise things 1932 01:31:41,040 --> 01:31:44,000 Speaker 28: are getting out of hand here, they reckon. They've had 1933 01:31:44,120 --> 01:31:47,519 Speaker 28: ninety six total cases confirmed in England for the first 1934 01:31:47,880 --> 01:31:50,720 Speaker 28: month of the year alone, and normally that figure is 1935 01:31:50,920 --> 01:31:53,799 Speaker 28: much much lower. But of course there have been constant 1936 01:31:53,920 --> 01:31:57,720 Speaker 28: concerns about vaccinations, and indeed we've seen that uncertainly come 1937 01:31:57,760 --> 01:32:01,520 Speaker 28: out of America too, haven't we, But concerns about vaccinations 1938 01:32:01,600 --> 01:32:04,320 Speaker 28: and other side effects that they may have. The health 1939 01:32:04,360 --> 01:32:07,320 Speaker 28: service here saying they are they are safe, they are 1940 01:32:07,400 --> 01:32:11,280 Speaker 28: the best way of dealing with this and people should 1941 01:32:11,280 --> 01:32:15,840 Speaker 28: have the MMR doses, that three dose in one vaccination 1942 01:32:16,040 --> 01:32:17,600 Speaker 28: as soon as they could possibly get it. 1943 01:32:18,040 --> 01:32:20,240 Speaker 2: What do you make of this Olympic T shirt problem? 1944 01:32:22,360 --> 01:32:27,960 Speaker 28: Very very interesting story. So the Olympic Games and the IOC, 1945 01:32:28,240 --> 01:32:32,599 Speaker 28: the International Olympic Committee are selling as part of its 1946 01:32:32,680 --> 01:32:37,040 Speaker 28: merchandise a so called heritage collection and that celebrates styles 1947 01:32:37,120 --> 01:32:40,280 Speaker 28: from all the different editions of the games. And each 1948 01:32:40,479 --> 01:32:43,680 Speaker 28: of the posters for each of the games is available 1949 01:32:43,880 --> 01:32:48,040 Speaker 28: on separate T shirts. Now, guess which one has sold out? Well, 1950 01:32:48,400 --> 01:32:50,839 Speaker 28: one of the ones that sold out is the nineteen 1951 01:32:50,960 --> 01:32:54,080 Speaker 28: thirty six Berlin Olympic Games. Now you'll remember they were 1952 01:32:54,200 --> 01:32:58,280 Speaker 28: used by Adolf Hitler and Nazis for propaganda, and people say, hang, 1953 01:32:58,640 --> 01:33:01,040 Speaker 28: you shouldn't have this as a poster because it was 1954 01:33:01,120 --> 01:33:05,800 Speaker 28: a disgraced games as such, And of course what Hitler 1955 01:33:05,920 --> 01:33:08,560 Speaker 28: wanted to do was to glorify Nazi Germany on the 1956 01:33:08,640 --> 01:33:12,639 Speaker 28: international stage and promote his ideals of racious supremacy, which 1957 01:33:12,680 --> 01:33:15,679 Speaker 28: of course was rather pricked when Jesse Owens, an African 1958 01:33:15,760 --> 01:33:18,880 Speaker 28: American track and field athlete, won four golds in the 1959 01:33:18,960 --> 01:33:22,040 Speaker 28: nineteen thirty six Games. But they're selling these T shirts 1960 01:33:22,280 --> 01:33:24,200 Speaker 28: and they have sold out, and some are saying, you 1961 01:33:24,280 --> 01:33:26,120 Speaker 28: know what, you really should have thought about the why 1962 01:33:26,200 --> 01:33:30,320 Speaker 28: the implication of selling the Berlin T shirt, And I 1963 01:33:30,400 --> 01:33:32,479 Speaker 28: think it should be something that you don't go into 1964 01:33:32,560 --> 01:33:35,519 Speaker 28: reprint and you should have an investigation about why that 1965 01:33:35,720 --> 01:33:37,360 Speaker 28: was one of the so called heritage collection. 1966 01:33:37,439 --> 01:33:40,200 Speaker 2: Oh I see, okay, so this cracked down on vaping. 1967 01:33:40,520 --> 01:33:42,800 Speaker 2: Is this about full noise or is this a good idea? 1968 01:33:44,640 --> 01:33:48,400 Speaker 28: I think lots of people are sort of suddenly realizing 1969 01:33:48,439 --> 01:33:51,439 Speaker 28: that vaping, yep, might help you quit smoking. But a 1970 01:33:51,479 --> 01:33:54,160 Speaker 28: few the medics here are saying, but it can cause 1971 01:33:54,200 --> 01:33:57,599 Speaker 28: its own health problems, we fear. And I was driving 1972 01:33:57,640 --> 01:33:59,920 Speaker 28: behind somebody who was vaping in their car with the window. 1973 01:34:00,240 --> 01:34:02,280 Speaker 28: The amount of smoke coming out, I thought it was 1974 01:34:02,320 --> 01:34:03,960 Speaker 28: going to catch fire or something in the car. 1975 01:34:04,080 --> 01:34:04,959 Speaker 4: It was just incredible. 1976 01:34:05,000 --> 01:34:08,080 Speaker 28: But anyway, it has helped lots of people stop smoking. 1977 01:34:08,200 --> 01:34:11,240 Speaker 28: But health chiefs say we need some action to protect 1978 01:34:11,320 --> 01:34:14,759 Speaker 28: children and vulnerable people from breathing in secondhand smoke, even 1979 01:34:15,040 --> 01:34:18,000 Speaker 28: from a vape, And so what they're looking at is 1980 01:34:18,160 --> 01:34:24,200 Speaker 28: to ban people vaping in cars carrying children, ban vaping 1981 01:34:24,360 --> 01:34:29,439 Speaker 28: in playgrounds and outside schools, And smoking is also going 1982 01:34:29,479 --> 01:34:32,479 Speaker 28: to be banned outside hospitals and other health facilities. It's 1983 01:34:32,479 --> 01:34:36,000 Speaker 28: already banned in them, of course, but vaping will be 1984 01:34:36,080 --> 01:34:39,759 Speaker 28: allowed in those areas because they're trying to encourage people 1985 01:34:39,880 --> 01:34:43,480 Speaker 28: to give up smoking proper. So it is an extension 1986 01:34:43,560 --> 01:34:46,080 Speaker 28: of the smoking band we've seen which has been really 1987 01:34:46,200 --> 01:34:49,439 Speaker 28: massive here in the UK across all public transport and 1988 01:34:49,680 --> 01:34:53,760 Speaker 28: workplaces and really restricting them in social environments too. But 1989 01:34:53,880 --> 01:34:56,080 Speaker 28: to extend it with the vaping as well, it is 1990 01:34:56,200 --> 01:34:58,280 Speaker 28: going to be very difficult to police. That's always been 1991 01:34:58,280 --> 01:35:00,240 Speaker 28: the argument. But actually, do you know what, I think 1992 01:35:00,280 --> 01:35:02,679 Speaker 28: most people seem to be respecting Kevin. 1993 01:35:02,760 --> 01:35:04,680 Speaker 2: It is very nice to have you back, Welcome back 1994 01:35:04,720 --> 01:35:06,840 Speaker 2: and look forward to chatting you in a couple of days.
