It's Heather 2 00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:09,160 Speaker 1: duper Clan drive with One New Zealand to coverage like 3 00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:11,240 Speaker 1: no one else news talks. 4 00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:15,760 Speaker 2: They afternoon, Welcome to the show. Coming out today. Building 5 00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:19,439 Speaker 2: in Construction Minister Chris pank on him forcing homeowners to 6 00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:21,800 Speaker 2: take out of building warranty. We're going to get your 7 00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:24,439 Speaker 2: details on whether the new proposed KEYPI Saber change is 8 00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:26,159 Speaker 2: from the National Party, won't just be coming out of 9 00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:28,400 Speaker 2: your pay packet, which of course it will. And also 10 00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:30,400 Speaker 2: Nichola Willi's Finance minister after. 11 00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:31,920 Speaker 3: Six, Heather Dupercy out. 12 00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:34,360 Speaker 2: Okay, you tell me if you think I'm wrong, but 13 00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:36,720 Speaker 2: I reckon there's a market for imperfect food that is 14 00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:39,120 Speaker 2: not being fully catered for. There's a report out today 15 00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:41,800 Speaker 2: by the Otago University and the Ministry for the Environment 16 00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:44,720 Speaker 2: and it lays bare just how much food we actually 17 00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:47,200 Speaker 2: throw away and it ends up being for every single 18 00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:50,720 Speaker 2: person every single year, about two hundred and fifty kilograms 19 00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:52,440 Speaker 2: worth of food. Like that's a lot of food to 20 00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:54,360 Speaker 2: be thrown away. But the thing about it is, for 21 00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:56,200 Speaker 2: once at least it's not you and I who are 22 00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:59,760 Speaker 2: largely to blame here. It's everybody before the food gets 23 00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:02,400 Speaker 2: to it. It's the farmers, the growers, the process is 24 00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:04,679 Speaker 2: the wholesale of the fruit and veggie shops, the supermarkets, 25 00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:07,760 Speaker 2: all the retailers. They are doing two thirds of the wasting. 26 00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:11,479 Speaker 2: Most of the food that they throw away is edible, 27 00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:14,080 Speaker 2: seventy eight to eighty five percent of it can still 28 00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:17,280 Speaker 2: be eaten. Now, the report doesn't say why the food 29 00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:19,600 Speaker 2: is being wasted, but we can guess why it's being wasted. 30 00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:21,840 Speaker 2: I mean, the grower has maybe grown too many lettuces, 31 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:24,120 Speaker 2: more than the supermarket once, just leaves them lying on 32 00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 2: the field. The apples come off the tree of funny shape. 33 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:29,000 Speaker 2: A consumer is not going to want that gets thrown away. 34 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,520 Speaker 2: The flower has hit the best before date. No one's 35 00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:33,880 Speaker 2: going to bake an entire thousand cakes with it, so 36 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:36,280 Speaker 2: they just get rid of it. Nothing actually wrong with 37 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:38,920 Speaker 2: the food. Now, this is where I wonder if all 38 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:41,320 Speaker 2: of these guys have missed a trick, Because I don't 39 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:43,920 Speaker 2: mind a funny shaped apple as long as it tastes good, 40 00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:45,720 Speaker 2: and if it's going to cost me twenty percent less 41 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:48,240 Speaker 2: than a perfectly shaped apple, I'm gonna buy it. I 42 00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 2: already buy the stuff from Woolworths in the odd bunch bags. 43 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:53,560 Speaker 2: You know that's supposed to be cheaper because it's not 44 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:57,400 Speaker 2: as perfect. I constantly ignore the best before dates because 45 00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:00,400 Speaker 2: I think they're far too conservative. Now I realize that 46 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 2: for some food processes, selling it a discount just makes 47 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:05,640 Speaker 2: the exercise unjustifiable, because the cost of labor for sorting 48 00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:08,240 Speaker 2: out the duds and then transporting them, which has a 49 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,080 Speaker 2: cost only to offer a discount might make the whole 50 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:14,960 Speaker 2: exercise for them economically unviable. But if it isn't, if 51 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 2: they can still make a dollar while selling the product 52 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 2: for cheaper. I reckon that in a cost of living 53 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:23,360 Speaker 2: crisis where groceries are just so unbelievably pricey at the moment, 54 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:26,440 Speaker 2: if we ever had the chance to snap ourselves out 55 00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 2: of the subsession with eating perfect apples. Now's the time 56 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:32,919 Speaker 2: sample of one here, But I reckon there's a market 57 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 2: for the edible off casts at a cheaper price. 58 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 3: Heather due for celan. 59 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 2: Let me know what you think. Nine two ninety two 60 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 2: is the text number, and then we're going to talk 61 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:46,079 Speaker 2: to one of the people behind this reporter, Professor of 62 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 2: nutrition at Otago University. After half past five, now Air 63 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:53,200 Speaker 2: New Zealand A the problems get worse. They're under pressure 64 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 2: now to save Christmas for thousands of travelers because the 65 00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 2: cabin crew union has told the airline its workers are 66 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:00,600 Speaker 2: going to go on strike on December the eighth. In 67 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:02,640 Speaker 2: New Zealand are saying if the strike does go ahead, 68 00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 2: it could unpack fifteen thousand travelers over the weekend. The 69 00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:10,240 Speaker 2: airline also faced criticism from two prominent business commentator Sam 70 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 2: Stubbs in one newspaper and Bruce Cottrell in another newspaper 71 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 2: for a sliding performance and the price of flying. And 72 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 2: Bruce Cottrell is with us. Now, Hi, Bruce, good aheader, 73 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 2: what about that strike? Did you think Jesus can't get 74 00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:20,919 Speaker 2: any worse? 75 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 4: Well, it could always get worse, I suppose. But it's 76 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 4: just about setting our expectations, isn't it. 77 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:33,520 Speaker 2: Yeah? Well yeah, but setting our is the expectation, not 78 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 2: set by the price though, Bruce, And the price is 79 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 2: so high exactly? 80 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 4: Well, And that's what I tried to say in the 81 00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 4: column here, that this is it's not a cheap service, 82 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:45,240 Speaker 4: is it's And you expect performance when you're paying a 83 00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 4: thousand bucks to fly return to Wellington? Yeah, and you 84 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 4: do expect a level of performance and that level of 85 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 4: performance isn't there at the moment. So it's frustrating. It's 86 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 4: frustrating for travelers. I'm sure it's frustrating for a New 87 00:03:57,280 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 4: Zealand as well. 88 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 2: I wonder, I mean, what set you off, what got 89 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 2: you to finally write this column. Was the new CEO 90 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:05,680 Speaker 2: basically saying everything was fine at the airline. I just 91 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 2: wanted because I'd also pick that up. And I just 92 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 2: wonder if they do not realize how how opinion is 93 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:12,360 Speaker 2: turning against them, what do you think? 94 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 5: I think? I think a couple of things. 95 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:17,479 Speaker 4: One was one was that comment, and you're quite right 96 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 4: when he said that the airline was in fantastic shape 97 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 4: when he was on with Mike one morning. The other 98 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:28,599 Speaker 4: the other comment that really grated me was after arriving 99 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:32,000 Speaker 4: in Wellington an hour and twenty five minutes late and 100 00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:34,440 Speaker 4: missing a meeting, for the pilot to come on the 101 00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 4: speaker and apologize for being quote a bit late. You know, 102 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 4: I just and that's that's what I mean about expectations. 103 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:43,840 Speaker 4: If the if the team are in New Zealand are 104 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 4: lowering their expectations and an hour and twenty five is 105 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 4: just a bit late, then those expectations will never recover. 106 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:52,919 Speaker 4: And you know yourself, right, if you don't aspire to 107 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 4: be better, you'll never be better. And that's and and 108 00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 4: we just need we just need a bit of as 109 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,359 Speaker 4: a country at the time. It's not just in New Zealand. 110 00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:02,840 Speaker 4: I think the whole country needs it. 111 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:05,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I think you're right. Do you think that 112 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:08,039 Speaker 2: we're just kind of becoming a bit mediocre in our brains? 113 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:13,039 Speaker 4: Well, I don't know if we're becoming mediocre, but I 114 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:16,480 Speaker 4: do think if you know we're sitting around but still 115 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 4: blaming COVID, then there's something wrong with us. You know, 116 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 4: we are a country that have become what we what 117 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,160 Speaker 4: we are, or what we at least were until recently, 118 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:29,000 Speaker 4: by boxing above our weight. And I think we're starting 119 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:31,800 Speaker 4: to see a lot of evidence of not wanting to 120 00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:34,800 Speaker 4: do that anymore for whatever reason. And you know, I 121 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:36,840 Speaker 4: put off writing that column for two years because I 122 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:38,359 Speaker 4: don't want to knock in New Zealand. 123 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:41,279 Speaker 5: But see it's getting hard to remain silent. 124 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 4: And the feedback that we've had over the weekend as 125 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:45,839 Speaker 4: a result of the column would indicate that I'm not 126 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 4: the only one that's feeling like that. 127 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 2: Now you're not. You're not the only one at all. 128 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:51,679 Speaker 2: And I'm going to talk about this later on actually, 129 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:54,000 Speaker 2: because I think you're onto something there. How long before 130 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:55,279 Speaker 2: you start flying Jetstar. 131 00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 4: Well, I don't, as I say in the column, I 132 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:00,800 Speaker 4: don't want to be that guy. I want I want 133 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:05,400 Speaker 4: in New Zealand to be outrageously successful, and I don't 134 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:07,839 Speaker 4: want to be the person that takes the cheaper option 135 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:12,279 Speaker 4: or flies with flies with the enemy. I'd rather do 136 00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:14,920 Speaker 4: everything I can to support New Zealand or endz Inc 137 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:16,000 Speaker 4: or whatever you want to call it. 138 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 5: But we do have to lift our sites. We have 139 00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:23,839 Speaker 5: to lift our own expectations of ourselves and of the 140 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 5: businesses that are there to service. Otherwise we will We'll 141 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:27,680 Speaker 5: end up going to do something else. 142 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,719 Speaker 2: And Air New Zealand is losing the loyal customers. So 143 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,160 Speaker 2: what is your one tip to Air New Zealand if 144 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 2: you could give them one. 145 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:37,240 Speaker 5: If I could get them give them one tip, I 146 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:41,599 Speaker 5: would say, recover the aspiration to be the best airline 147 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:44,920 Speaker 5: in the world and give you people at the front 148 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:48,039 Speaker 5: line who are interacting with your customers, the permission to 149 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:49,680 Speaker 5: solve the customers problem. 150 00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:51,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, Bruce, Thank you very much. It's so good to 151 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 2: talk to you. Appreciate it.

He's like, oh, did you see 158 00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 2: what Bruce said. Everybody's talking about the column. If you 159 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 2: haven't read the column, go and read the column. We're 160 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 2: going to talk about it because I have more to 161 00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 2: sound it, but I don't have time right now. I'm 162 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 2: going to talk about it with you later on. Heather, 163 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 2: we get the Wonky Box. I love it. I get 164 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:23,880 Speaker 2: I know the Wonky Box actually is a thing, isn't it. 165 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:25,280 Speaker 2: I need to get into the Wonky Box. I do 166 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 2: the odd Can I make this observation about the odd bunch. 167 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:30,480 Speaker 2: This is the if you don't shop at Woolworth's, the 168 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:32,520 Speaker 2: odd bunches where they get like all the kind of 169 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:34,800 Speaker 2: like funny food and get you can buy your odd 170 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:36,160 Speaker 2: bunch of apples and you odd bunch of pears, and 171 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:38,560 Speaker 2: you odd bunch mandarins. And I don't actually buy mandarins 172 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 2: unless they're the odd bunch mandarins. But I'd be beggar 173 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 2: if I can tell you what's odd about it. When 174 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 2: it arrives, they look perfectly good to me. I'm like, 175 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:48,040 Speaker 2: you call this odd? What's odd about? I think maybe 176 00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 2: they're a little bit smaller. I don't really know what 177 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 2: it is. It doesn't it doesn't seem odd to me. 178 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 2: And if that's out, like, if the stuff I'm getting 179 00:07:55,680 --> 00:08:00,560 Speaker 2: is like perfectly good, then I think we're unrealist. I 180 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:02,760 Speaker 2: think we're completely unrealistic with what we think needs to 181 00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:06,119 Speaker 2: be on the shelves and the supermarkets. Anyway, listen, the 182 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:09,920 Speaker 2: Ukraine proposed the proposed Ukraine peace Plan. It sounds like 183 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:12,040 Speaker 2: it's making some headway, so you'll be aware. Of course, 184 00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 2: the Trump laid out some completely unacceptable terms for Ukraine. 185 00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 2: Looks like it was just copypasted from what Russia wanted. 186 00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 2: They and then there was the deadline of it all 187 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 2: needs to be done by Thursday. The US and the 188 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 2: Ukraine negotiators are in Geneva and they reckon they've made 189 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 2: some tweaks, so they're getting somewhere with it. Thursday is 190 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:32,200 Speaker 2: no longer the deadline that Trump is said. Looks more 191 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 2: like the talks are going to carry on into the week, 192 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 2: and of course you know it, Thursday will come and go, 193 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:38,160 Speaker 2: Thanksgiving in the States will come and go, and lust 194 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 2: we'll be talking about it. But at least it looks 195 00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 2: like they're headed somewhere. Sixteen past four. 196 00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 3: It's the Heather Topers see Alan Drive Full Show. 197 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 1: Podcast on iHeartRadio powered by News Talk ZEBI. 198 00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 2: Hither our Sun heads up the food Rescue here in 199 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 2: christ They're doing exactly what you're advocating, and then they're 200 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:58,640 Speaker 2: distributing it to needy organizations. Bruce, That's cool, but what 201 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:00,720 Speaker 2: I'm saying to you is not only people in need, 202 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,560 Speaker 2: but like people who earn money. I would I would 203 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:06,320 Speaker 2: rather pay twenty percent list and get something as slightly misshapen, 204 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 2: wouldn't you? I think you can sell this stuff. Nineteen 205 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 2: past four. 206 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 1: Good Sport with tab Multi, Fast, Easy and more codes Sorry, 207 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 1: eighteen bit Responsibly. 208 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:18,720 Speaker 2: Jason Pine Sports Talk Cooasters with Me, Hello Piney, Hello Heather. Okay, 209 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:20,839 Speaker 2: rate the All Blacks year for me and let's do 210 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 2: it out of five? 211 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:24,920 Speaker 6: Okay, Well, what we should do with if I go three, two, one, 212 00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 6: and we both give our mark. 213 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:27,840 Speaker 2: Out of five, okay, out of five? 214 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:29,720 Speaker 3: Ye about of ten? 215 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 6: What about out of ten our mark out of ten? 216 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:33,200 Speaker 7: Go okay? 217 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 6: So three to one pretty close. You're a tough marker. Yeah, 218 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:42,160 Speaker 6: I'm giving them just I'm giving them the extra mark 219 00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:44,760 Speaker 6: because ten out of thirteen is a record that a 220 00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 6: lot of Tier one nations would love. But I think 221 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 6: there are still a lot of unanswered questions, as your 222 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:55,679 Speaker 6: five out of ten suggests. You know, no Rugby Championship, 223 00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 6: no Grand Slam. Yes they kept the Bletter Slow Cup 224 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:00,839 Speaker 6: and that was that was good. But in Australian side, 225 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 6: is still the. 226 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:03,720 Speaker 2: Problems that are plaguing them at the end of this 227 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:05,960 Speaker 2: year that we're plaguing them at the start of last year. 228 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:09,199 Speaker 2: Massive deficits in terms of losses. 229 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:12,079 Speaker 6: That those third quarter blues are crazy, a like not 230 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:15,280 Speaker 6: being out of score points or stop conceding them, you know, 231 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:17,559 Speaker 6: the twenty minutes after halftime. Look a year from now, 232 00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:20,439 Speaker 6: after this massive tour of South Africa with what three 233 00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:22,480 Speaker 6: tests over there plus the one of the neutral location, 234 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:25,200 Speaker 6: if we're ten from thirteen back in the next year, 235 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:27,960 Speaker 6: that's probably not too bad. Considering four of them are 236 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:31,839 Speaker 6: against a terrific South African side. But will we get there? 237 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 6: That's that's the thing? 238 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 2: Is it the actual is it? Is it the number 239 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:38,640 Speaker 2: of I think looking at the number of tests that 240 00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 2: you win is kind of not the right metric. I 241 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 2: think it's it's the quality of the game that's being played, right, 242 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:44,880 Speaker 2: you see the problems there? 243 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 6: Yeah, great point because we beat France and three tests 244 00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:51,000 Speaker 6: at the start of July or into July, and none 245 00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:53,400 Speaker 6: of the three were really great performances. But there are 246 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 6: three wins there. Whereas you look at the win over 247 00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:58,280 Speaker 6: South Africa and Auckland, that was a terrific performance that night, 248 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 6: but they have been a bit few and far between. 249 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 6: So yeah, I think we leave twenty twenty five in 250 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 6: an all black sense, with a sense of not really 251 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:10,200 Speaker 6: being sure if the improvement has been enough for us 252 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:12,679 Speaker 6: to feel confident about the World Cup in two years time. 253 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,240 Speaker 2: So Piney on Friday, I was surprised to read in 254 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:17,440 Speaker 2: Gregor and you and I talked about Gregor Paul's piece, 255 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 2: but what I didn't talk to you about was the 256 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 2: fact that Scott Raiser Robinson is actually not the head 257 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:24,480 Speaker 2: coach in the way that we would consider a traditional 258 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:27,880 Speaker 2: head coach. He's a culture coach. He's a manager type figure, right, 259 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 2: And is it Scott Hanson who's the actual head coach? 260 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:32,200 Speaker 2: That's surprising to me? Is it to you? 261 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:33,960 Speaker 6: It is surprising to me too, And I think that 262 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 6: might be one change they have to make. They have 263 00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:39,800 Speaker 6: to get razorback on the grass as a hands on coach, 264 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:42,560 Speaker 6: because I think that's how he was initially anyway, and 265 00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:44,560 Speaker 6: maybe later in this time at the Crusades he moved 266 00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 6: into more of this sort of overseeing role. But he 267 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 6: was initially a very good on the grass rugby coach. 268 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 6: And with Jason Holland leaving now I don't think they'll 269 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:55,360 Speaker 6: replace him. I think they'll just, you know, give all 270 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 6: the responsibilities out quite a bit to Scott Robinson. After all, 271 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 6: he's the head coach, which he's the one who lives 272 00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:04,320 Speaker 6: and dies by the results of the team. If I'm him, 273 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:06,960 Speaker 6: I want to have my hands dirty within that team. 274 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:07,680 Speaker 3: So is it. 275 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:10,479 Speaker 2: Possible that actually that may go some way to explaining 276 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:12,960 Speaker 2: why we looked at the Crusaders and they were just 277 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:15,719 Speaker 2: absolutely brilliant. And then Scott Raiser Robertson moves to the 278 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:18,199 Speaker 2: all blacks and they're not brilliant because he's not the coach. 279 00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 2: Because when we're looking at the team, this is not 280 00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:22,240 Speaker 2: a scott this is not a razor team, this is 281 00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:23,679 Speaker 2: a handsome team. 282 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:26,680 Speaker 6: Well, I think also the fact that coaching at Super 283 00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 6: Raby level allows you to be a man manager because 284 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:30,960 Speaker 6: you have your team with you the whole time. Right, 285 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:33,480 Speaker 6: You've got five or six months together with them. That 286 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:35,200 Speaker 6: is enough time. It's like, you know, that's being in 287 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:37,840 Speaker 6: a workplace with them all blacks. It's like they come 288 00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:40,040 Speaker 6: in and out. He doesn't have a long time with them. 289 00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:43,520 Speaker 6: So building that culture being a great man manager is 290 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 6: a lot more difficult at all blacks level than crusaders level. 291 00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:49,280 Speaker 2: Now, what happened to England? I mean two days? Got 292 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:49,600 Speaker 2: the hell? 293 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:53,000 Speaker 6: Imagine if you had tickets for day three, if you're 294 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:55,720 Speaker 6: all set for your day at the cricket and there's 295 00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:58,200 Speaker 6: no cricket, this is astonishing read. I think guys have 296 00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:00,719 Speaker 6: just forgotten how to bat. You know, they love the 297 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 6: T twenty, they smack it around everywhere and they get 298 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:05,439 Speaker 6: to the white clothing on the red ball. They forget 299 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:09,160 Speaker 6: how to play. So yeah, like crazy, but yeah, good entertainment. 300 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:10,600 Speaker 6: I guess, but yeah, no, you wouldn't want to take 301 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:11,320 Speaker 6: us today through. 302 00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 2: Brilliant Hey, thank you Pioneers, always appreciated.

Market 344 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:51,400 Speaker 2: return needs to grow at twice the rate of the 345 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:54,280 Speaker 2: labor cost to keep pace. Hope that provides a perspective. 346 00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 2: Thank you, Simon. That's actually what I thought was going 347 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:58,920 Speaker 2: on in some part. So some of it is just 348 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:01,960 Speaker 2: left there in the fields because it's just you make 349 00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:04,840 Speaker 2: no money if you pick it and then transported and 350 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:08,440 Speaker 2: sorted and so on. Listen a little bit more detail. 351 00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 2: This is the detail we've been waiting for with the 352 00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:14,280 Speaker 2: building and construction overhaul that Chris Pink is doing. The 353 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:16,360 Speaker 2: last thing was, well, who's going to pay? Right if 354 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 2: we're not gonna have counsels as the kind of insurer 355 00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:21,440 Speaker 2: of last resort? Who pays if five years down the 356 00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 2: track you find your house is leaky. Turns out you 357 00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:26,640 Speaker 2: pay because you're going to have to get out or 358 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:28,360 Speaker 2: you're gonna have to get a warranty on your renovation. 359 00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:30,880 Speaker 2: If you're doing any renovation that's over the cost of 360 00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:34,440 Speaker 2: home warranties for all new residential buildings three stories or 361 00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:36,680 Speaker 2: under and renovations of one hundred thousand dollars over. So 362 00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:39,240 Speaker 2: if you're spending that much money on a renovation, you're 363 00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 2: taking out a warranty. Now Vagan to say it's not 364 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:43,400 Speaker 2: a big cost, it's like two hundred and seventy five 365 00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:45,640 Speaker 2: dollars a year for ten years or whatever it is. 366 00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:47,600 Speaker 2: I don't know. I'm not sure we'll get the cost 367 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:49,880 Speaker 2: from Chris Pink. I'm not sure this is going to 368 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:52,480 Speaker 2: be people are going to be stoked about this. But 369 00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:55,760 Speaker 2: I suppose you have to crack some eggs, you know, occasionally. Anyway, 370 00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:57,840 Speaker 2: He's with us after five o'clock.

Would you please ask your building regulation 376 00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:27,880 Speaker 2: expert if there is a time limit for a renovation 377 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:30,000 Speaker 2: over one hundred thousand dollars? Please? I mean, why can't 378 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 2: I schedule or plan a renovation of fifty thousand and 379 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:34,560 Speaker 2: then another of say sixty thousand a few months later 380 00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:37,160 Speaker 2: to avoid the REGs? Trevor, very good question, and we'll 381 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:39,440 Speaker 2: be putting that to the minister who will be your 382 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:42,720 Speaker 2: building regulation expert today. He'll bear us after five. Also, 383 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:44,160 Speaker 2: what we're going to talk about is key we save 384 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:47,040 Speaker 2: another big key we save. The announcement yesterday from Chris Luxon, 385 00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:49,600 Speaker 2: Very good one. Actually, I think to take us to 386 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:52,360 Speaker 2: you know, I mean it's a bit of a stretch 387 00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:54,320 Speaker 2: to say it's the same as Australia, but we'll go 388 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:58,520 Speaker 2: with it. It's twelve percent twelve percent. Obviously, if you 389 00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 2: understand anything about how the world works, you know what 390 00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:03,040 Speaker 2: this means is you're not going to get a pay rise. 391 00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:03,440 Speaker 8: Right. 392 00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:05,040 Speaker 2: So if this kicks in in twenty thirty and you're 393 00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:07,280 Speaker 2: putting in six percent, and your employer's putting in six percent, 394 00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:10,840 Speaker 2: which basically means your income is putting twelve percent of 395 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:16,000 Speaker 2: your income into your key, we savor you know that 396 00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:20,119 Speaker 2: that is part of your total package. Any rational, sane 397 00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:23,640 Speaker 2: employer is calculating it like that. They're going I would 398 00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:25,880 Speaker 2: normally give this person one hundred thousand dollars, but let's 399 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:27,639 Speaker 2: lop twelve percent off and then we'll offer them that 400 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:29,119 Speaker 2: and then we can add the twelve percent back on 401 00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:31,600 Speaker 2: and that will be their total package. I think everybody's 402 00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 2: worried that's going to happen. It's going to happen. That's 403 00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:36,520 Speaker 2: how it works. We're going to talk to Rupert Carline, 404 00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:39,760 Speaker 2: who is a wealth managing director after five, just see 405 00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:41,480 Speaker 2: if it's possible to avoid it. The answer is, of 406 00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:44,080 Speaker 2: course no, it's not politics, and ten minutes time, twenty 407 00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:45,880 Speaker 2: three away from five it's. 408 00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:48,680 Speaker 1: The world wires on news dogs, they'd be drive. 409 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:49,000 Speaker 12: So. 410 00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:52,000 Speaker 2: The latest political poll in Australia has identified a key 411 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:55,000 Speaker 2: rival for Susan Lee as opposition leader. When asked who 412 00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:57,159 Speaker 2: should be the coalition leader, twenty one percent of the 413 00:17:57,160 --> 00:18:00,520 Speaker 2: people polled said Susan Lee, but fifteen percent than pointed 414 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:03,920 Speaker 2: to Andrew Hasty. Liberal deputy leader Ted O'Brien says Susan's 415 00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:04,679 Speaker 2: job is safe. 416 00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:08,600 Speaker 4: Susan Lee did a fantastic job last week out there 417 00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:10,879 Speaker 4: prosecuting the case for affordable energy. 418 00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 3: Of course she will continue to lead our party. 419 00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:17,560 Speaker 2: Over in the US, the Secretary of State Marco Rubio 420 00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:19,479 Speaker 2: is starting to sound more and more like his boss. 421 00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:23,200 Speaker 2: He says, there has been tremendous progress in peace negotiations 422 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:24,919 Speaker 2: with Ukrainian and European leaders. 423 00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:26,480 Speaker 3: I think today was worthwhile. 424 00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 13: It was very, very very. 425 00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:30,320 Speaker 10: It is probably the most productive day we have had 426 00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:34,080 Speaker 10: on this issue, maybe in the entirety of our engagement, 427 00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:35,560 Speaker 10: but certainly in a very long time. 428 00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:41,640 Speaker 2: And finally, the world is more mental than you could 429 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 2: possibly ever have imagined. There is a judge in Missouri 430 00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:48,520 Speaker 2: who regularly wears an Elvis weg in court in court, 431 00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:51,719 Speaker 2: in court, and has agreed to step down because what 432 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:54,320 Speaker 2: Judge Matthew Thornhill was doing was he puts the weg 433 00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:57,199 Speaker 2: on and then he occasionally plays Alvas songs off his 434 00:18:57,320 --> 00:18:59,800 Speaker 2: phone to bring a bit of levity to court proceedings. 435 00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 2: You don't relax the litigans. He's not actually allow au 436 00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:04,720 Speaker 2: to do that. So he's agreed to step down in 437 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:06,399 Speaker 2: order to avoid a disciplinary hearing. 438 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:10,960 Speaker 1: International correspondence with Ends and Eye Insurance, Peace of mind 439 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:13,640 Speaker 1: for New Zealand business Wow on. 440 00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 2: Of the Peterson six pur perth Love presenters with us, 441 00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:19,480 Speaker 2: Hello Ali, get aheader. So the seventy four year old 442 00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:22,159 Speaker 2: has fallen off the cruise, the disney cruise that's it 443 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:23,240 Speaker 2: can't find. 444 00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:24,520 Speaker 7: No, isn't it awful? 445 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:26,639 Speaker 14: Imagine going on a disney cruise because it would be 446 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:28,720 Speaker 14: the trip of a lifetime, wouldn't it. But an elderly 447 00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:33,080 Speaker 14: passenger it died after jumping overboard on that one way 448 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:36,440 Speaker 14: sailing from Australia to New Zealand. So there's been a 449 00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:40,720 Speaker 14: fair search there was not found. Now the ship is 450 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:44,280 Speaker 14: due to arrive tomorrow. There in Auckland, but that's going 451 00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:47,440 Speaker 14: to be pushed back until the twenty sixth of November, 452 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:49,359 Speaker 14: so looking to be harrowing time, wouldn't it For the 453 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:53,719 Speaker 14: what one thousand crew and captain and those passengers on 454 00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:55,080 Speaker 14: board the ship. It was meant to be a five 455 00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:58,800 Speaker 14: nights sailing cruise from Melbourne Auckland. Of course, Disney's actually 456 00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:02,120 Speaker 14: pulling out of our market. But that is very, very 457 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 14: sad news. The guest has not been found, the search 458 00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:06,200 Speaker 14: has been called off, and are they're going to spend 459 00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:07,280 Speaker 14: an extra night at sea? 460 00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:09,760 Speaker 2: How long do you give Susan before Andrew rolls her? 461 00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:13,399 Speaker 7: Well, definitely into the new year. What's the point going now? 462 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:19,159 Speaker 14: The government is obviously riding high in the polls and 463 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:22,480 Speaker 14: where a good two years plus away from a federal election. 464 00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:24,359 Speaker 14: So I just don't see there being any point at 465 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:27,919 Speaker 14: the moment challenging Susan Lee and rolling her. Maybe to 466 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:30,600 Speaker 14: give you a bit of a breather over summer if 467 00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:33,119 Speaker 14: you're a Newish opposition leader, that the pressures off you, 468 00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:35,640 Speaker 14: I suppose for six weeks or so, but I think 469 00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:37,720 Speaker 14: Susan Lee will be given to the end of the 470 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:39,879 Speaker 14: first quarter of twenty twenty six, So by the end 471 00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:41,880 Speaker 14: of March, I'd be surprised to see her still there. 472 00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 14: Opinion polls will probably keep tracking downwards. She's trying to 473 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:46,680 Speaker 14: be upbeat and say, look, we're going to tackle migration 474 00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:50,720 Speaker 14: next after resolving their energy policies. I think that there 475 00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:54,520 Speaker 14: is no real appetite to challenge and change the leader now. 476 00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:56,280 Speaker 14: And as you just read out in those Newspole results, 477 00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 14: what fifteen percent of people only know who Andrew Hasty 478 00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:00,680 Speaker 14: is and he's over from my side of the world 479 00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:03,240 Speaker 14: here in Western Australia. He has a lot of work 480 00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:05,720 Speaker 14: to do for people in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane in particular. 481 00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:06,800 Speaker 7: Do we even know who he is? 482 00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:09,399 Speaker 2: Yeah? I mean you know what, do you think she 483 00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:10,520 Speaker 2: wants to retain the job? 484 00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:15,040 Speaker 14: Not really ultimately I don't, but I also think you 485 00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:18,160 Speaker 14: would believe that you would want to give this your 486 00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:19,800 Speaker 14: all because this may be and it will be her 487 00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:21,160 Speaker 14: only opportunity once she's gone. 488 00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:21,880 Speaker 2: She's gone. 489 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:24,119 Speaker 7: Yeah, so you're not going to give up without giving 490 00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:27,640 Speaker 7: it everything that you have and trying to hold onto power. 491 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:29,320 Speaker 2: Because I was going to say, if she wants the job, 492 00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:31,479 Speaker 2: you know what happens between now and March, then as 493 00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:34,280 Speaker 2: things get really weird, because that's what always happens. They 494 00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:35,960 Speaker 2: start to try too hard for the job and then 495 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:37,879 Speaker 2: they just get weird as. 496 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:40,720 Speaker 14: And even the fact that she's trying to you know, 497 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:43,360 Speaker 14: even the fact that she has to sell a policy 498 00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:45,919 Speaker 14: now from the coalition that has abandoned that zero, she 499 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:48,440 Speaker 14: doesn't believe in that. It's the same with the Sheep 500 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:50,680 Speaker 14: movement last year, you know, try and keep live export 501 00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:53,280 Speaker 14: trade going. She doesn't believe in that. And she also 502 00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:56,560 Speaker 14: doesn't believe, in her heart of hearts, in the drastic 503 00:21:56,600 --> 00:21:58,480 Speaker 14: measures that the party wants to take the direction for 504 00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:01,480 Speaker 14: immigration policy. So how can you have a leader who 505 00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:03,600 Speaker 14: personally doesn't believe in what she's trying to sell? 506 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:05,919 Speaker 7: It just it doesn't end up cutting the mustard? 507 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 2: Hey, did you go to the ashes? Absolutely? I did 508 00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:10,720 Speaker 2: day one or day two both. 509 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:13,119 Speaker 7: I took Friday off and went Saturday. And how's this header? 510 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:14,400 Speaker 7: This is the best thing ever. 511 00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:16,720 Speaker 14: My seven year old Edward, we were meant to leave 512 00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:19,720 Speaker 14: at four o'clock on Saturday and he said to me, Dad, 513 00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:23,400 Speaker 14: we're not going anywhere. And now he just like I've 514 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:27,080 Speaker 14: brainwashed him successfully that he realizes The Australian Cricket team 515 00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:29,240 Speaker 14: is the greatest team of all time and anytime we 516 00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:31,680 Speaker 14: play England India New Zealand, we're going to flog you. 517 00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:34,199 Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, cool, So you've just said like that's like 518 00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:36,879 Speaker 2: telling him that that sounds is still real? Hey, question 519 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:40,800 Speaker 2: for you, and it's just asked me in my ears 520 00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:43,520 Speaker 2: if in order for this to remain true, will all 521 00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:45,080 Speaker 2: squads have to carry sandpaper? 522 00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:45,960 Speaker 12: Oh? 523 00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:49,160 Speaker 7: Thanks, antsy mate? Yeah yeah, yeah, real good. Now we've 524 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:51,000 Speaker 7: moved on from that, Heather. We just sen Travis had 525 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:52,240 Speaker 7: it head out and he just scores all the uns. 526 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:54,920 Speaker 2: Is your seven year old sit still for the whole day? 527 00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 13: Yep? 528 00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:57,440 Speaker 7: How's that? Got that? Pun? 529 00:22:57,760 --> 00:22:58,480 Speaker 3: Absolutely? 530 00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:01,120 Speaker 14: How's that ed? First time he's ever been to a Test. 531 00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:03,359 Speaker 14: He's gone to a couple of big Bash matches, but 532 00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:06,080 Speaker 14: he went for an entire day of test cricket. Any normal, 533 00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:11,399 Speaker 14: Well he's my son, so yes, because I've brainwashed him successfully. 534 00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:12,639 Speaker 7: But no, it's not for normal seven. 535 00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:14,520 Speaker 2: Year olds, isn't it. It's just because it's really the 536 00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:15,080 Speaker 2: difference is. 537 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:17,320 Speaker 7: Because New Zealand's no good at cricket and Australia is. 538 00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:20,280 Speaker 14: So you never know how it feels like Hegley OVAL's 539 00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:22,119 Speaker 14: one of the best ovals in the World's watch cricket. 540 00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:24,080 Speaker 7: But and I know you're actually really good at cricket, 541 00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:25,200 Speaker 7: but I'm just trying to be a. 542 00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:26,919 Speaker 2: Bit of a Higley. Is that in New Zealand? 543 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:27,280 Speaker 8: Is it? 544 00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:28,720 Speaker 7: Yeah? 545 00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:32,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, thank you Oliver. There never been to 546 00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:35,720 Speaker 2: a place called Hegley. But you know what, thank you, 547 00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 2: thank you. I think our accent is obviously closer to 548 00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:43,320 Speaker 2: the original. Oliver Peterson, six PR Perth Live presenter seventeen 549 00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:44,720 Speaker 2: away from five Heller. 550 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:46,679 Speaker 3: Do see, Allen, It's not normal is. 551 00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 2: It for a seven year old to sit still for 552 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:50,080 Speaker 2: an entire day's worth of cricket? 553 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:50,199 Speaker 3: Like? 554 00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:53,360 Speaker 2: Has he drugged his son or something? Do you know what? 555 00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:56,399 Speaker 2: Can I just tell you something? Very quickly? I poured 556 00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 2: some you know how I was saying before that I 557 00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:00,359 Speaker 2: have no respect for best buy dates and stuff myself 558 00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:01,840 Speaker 2: a cup of tea before and I poured the milk 559 00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:03,879 Speaker 2: in and obviously nobody's cleared the milk out over the 560 00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:06,240 Speaker 2: weekend and it curdled. And I brought my tea anyway, 561 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:08,160 Speaker 2: because it's a Russian in the boss can and he's annoying, 562 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:09,600 Speaker 2: like he's always talking to me at the wrong time 563 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:10,840 Speaker 2: of day, and so he was trying to talk to 564 00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:12,399 Speaker 2: me when I was trying to get ready, and so 565 00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:14,040 Speaker 2: I didn't have time to go and refresh the tea. 566 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 2: And I thought, bugger it, bugger it, I'm gonna drink 567 00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:19,159 Speaker 2: this tea. And I started drinking the tea. And then 568 00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:20,840 Speaker 2: I told the German that I was drinking the tea, 569 00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:23,880 Speaker 2: and she was so revolted that I was like, I'm 570 00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 2: just gonna have to push through, Like for the sake 571 00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:27,800 Speaker 2: of this, I'm gonna have to push through with the tea. 572 00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:30,639 Speaker 2: I've had to give up so disgusting I did. I 573 00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:33,120 Speaker 2: gave up because it's not because it tastes bad, because 574 00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:35,719 Speaker 2: it doesn't taste bad. It just looks nasty, doesn't it. 575 00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:37,679 Speaker 2: I wonder if this is the reaction people have with 576 00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:40,480 Speaker 2: funny shaped apples in the supermarket. We're like, ah, look 577 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:43,280 Speaker 2: at that apple. It's not completely appily. I think that's 578 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:45,879 Speaker 2: the reaction I've had with milk. Anyway, we need to 579 00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:48,640 Speaker 2: talk about Nikola Willis, because I didn't have a chance 580 00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:50,159 Speaker 2: to talk to Nichola Willis. If you caught up on 581 00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:53,040 Speaker 2: the offshore credits thing, Simon Watts has been going around 582 00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 2: telling everybody, oh, we've got the mechanisms in place, all 583 00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:57,760 Speaker 2: we've got the processes. We're gonna start buying offshore carbon 584 00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:00,320 Speaker 2: credits from some places. I think it was what one 585 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:02,440 Speaker 2: of them, may have been Malaysia or Thailand or something 586 00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:04,680 Speaker 2: like that in Southeast Asia. We're ready to buy them. 587 00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:06,560 Speaker 2: But the other day he was saying he wasn't going 588 00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:08,640 Speaker 2: to buy them because they're going to cost US twenty 589 00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:10,159 Speaker 2: four billion dollars. And I don't know about you, but 590 00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:12,119 Speaker 2: I'm not keen on sending twenty four billion dollars to 591 00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:14,439 Speaker 2: another country to plant trees for us. So anyway, I 592 00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:16,159 Speaker 2: didn't get a chance to talk to Nicola about this 593 00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 2: on Monday because I had the funny voice. But she's 594 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:20,200 Speaker 2: with us today. I'm going to ask her about it. 595 00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:21,640 Speaker 2: Stay tuned, she's with us after six. 596 00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 1: Politics is next Politics with centric credit. 597 00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:27,280 Speaker 3: Check your customers and get payments. Curtainy, listen. 598 00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:28,960 Speaker 2: I'm going to need you to tell me whether you 599 00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:32,080 Speaker 2: think of Barren Wellington has been ridiculous, been very naughty, 600 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:34,080 Speaker 2: or if the authority is being ridiculous. I'm gona tell 601 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:35,679 Speaker 2: you about it in a minute. Right now, it's thirteen 602 00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:38,119 Speaker 2: away from five and Thomas Coglan, the Herald's political editor, 603 00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:39,800 Speaker 2: is in for Barry Sober, who's off for the week 604 00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:43,560 Speaker 2: writing his book. Thomas Hallo, he had a good afternoon. Now, 605 00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:45,600 Speaker 2: what do you think of this key we save her announcement? 606 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:47,640 Speaker 2: Seems to me like quite smart politics. 607 00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:50,160 Speaker 15: Yes, I think it's smart politics. I think it's good 608 00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:52,879 Speaker 15: policy as well. I mean, the key we saver in 609 00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:55,000 Speaker 15: general retirement savings in New Zealand there's a bit of 610 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:57,560 Speaker 15: a dog. It has been a dog since the nineteen 611 00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:00,840 Speaker 15: seventies when we got rid of the contributor scheme. We 612 00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 15: do need to lift it to twelve percent. Obviously, it's 613 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:05,359 Speaker 15: going to be a it will be a bit of 614 00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:07,560 Speaker 15: a bumpy ride getting it there. There will be some 615 00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:10,720 Speaker 15: employers who will take that that extra that extra point 616 00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:12,760 Speaker 15: five percent each year out of your pay packet and 617 00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:15,040 Speaker 15: the total remuneration package, which I know you've been talking 618 00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:17,760 Speaker 15: about today. So that's something I think I think Labor 619 00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:20,440 Speaker 15: is probably going to try and look at. But the 620 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:22,040 Speaker 15: rest of the policy is pretty sound. We need to 621 00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:23,920 Speaker 15: do it and for all the for all the bumps 622 00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:26,480 Speaker 15: along the way, it's it's probably something that's that's worth doing. 623 00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:28,159 Speaker 2: I mean, we need to be honest though that in 624 00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:30,240 Speaker 2: the long run, it's going to depress wages, isn't it, 625 00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:33,000 Speaker 2: because because when they when when when somebody offers you 626 00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:35,000 Speaker 2: a job, they are going to consider the cost of 627 00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:36,000 Speaker 2: key we saver here. 628 00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:39,840 Speaker 15: Yeah exactly, And I mean you know you're probably sick 629 00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:41,440 Speaker 15: of hearing it from everyone, But the only way to 630 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:44,399 Speaker 15: get wages to grow is productivity, and productivity has been 631 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:46,520 Speaker 15: an absolute turkey in New Zealand for a long time. 632 00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:49,680 Speaker 15: So yes, if this, if this, if we can't get 633 00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:52,440 Speaker 15: the productivity question solved, then then this will come from 634 00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:54,680 Speaker 15: from people's wages. No, no question about it. 635 00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:57,480 Speaker 2: I can't imagine anybody is going to vote for National 636 00:26:57,600 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 2: for it. It's not a vote attractor, it's not necessary. 637 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:02,720 Speaker 2: It's definitely not a vote repellent. Is it maybe just 638 00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:03,960 Speaker 2: a credibility policy? 639 00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:06,960 Speaker 15: I do? I think obviously we had those polls that 640 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:09,560 Speaker 15: the EPSOS poll last week which had the questions around 641 00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:11,840 Speaker 15: economic management. For National, they do need something to say 642 00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:14,680 Speaker 15: on economic management. They are also probably going to run 643 00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:17,720 Speaker 15: on raising the Superade again because they really have a 644 00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:20,480 Speaker 15: fiscal issue there. If they're not raising the Superade, then 645 00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:22,240 Speaker 15: it's really hard to see how they're going to pay 646 00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:25,159 Speaker 15: for public services going forward, because that superade thing is 647 00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:27,080 Speaker 15: a real issue, so they need something. If you're going 648 00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:28,959 Speaker 15: to lift the superrade, you need to be able to say, well, 649 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:33,720 Speaker 15: look here's what we're doing to try and really get 650 00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:37,040 Speaker 15: some of the heavy lifting off superannuation, national superation as 651 00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:40,560 Speaker 15: far as the retirement costco. And I suppose it as 652 00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:42,640 Speaker 15: a way of just neutralizing that question them. 653 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:45,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, fair point. Okay, Now have you seen this Taxpayer's 654 00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:47,840 Speaker 2: Union Curier poll about Labour CGT. 655 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:49,000 Speaker 13: Yes, I have. 656 00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:52,000 Speaker 15: It's a very interesting poll. So obviously Labour CGT twenty 657 00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:55,600 Speaker 15: eight percent on profits made after one July twenty twenty 658 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:59,200 Speaker 15: seven for property excluding the family home and a bunch 659 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:02,480 Speaker 15: of other things. Now, obviously, you know house prices go 660 00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:04,639 Speaker 15: up by five six percent of years, that is what 661 00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:07,119 Speaker 15: the forecast is. The inflation rate is a wee bit 662 00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:08,960 Speaker 15: lower than that usually, you know, two to three percent 663 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:11,600 Speaker 15: of the year going forward is what we're forecasting. So 664 00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:13,359 Speaker 15: some of the text, some of the money that Labor's 665 00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:16,920 Speaker 15: CGT would bring in, it's just inflation. So basically the 666 00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:20,440 Speaker 15: government is clipping the ticket, and the governments slipping the 667 00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:22,720 Speaker 15: ticket when it fails to get inflation under control. So 668 00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:25,920 Speaker 15: there's a wee bit of a perverse incenter of there. 669 00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:30,680 Speaker 15: Sixty one percent of New Zealanders want the text if 670 00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:32,880 Speaker 15: there were a text for it only applied to inflation 671 00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:38,400 Speaker 15: adjusted gains, whereas where student NA one real gains and 672 00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:40,840 Speaker 15: it's actually labor voters are the ones who are most 673 00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:41,360 Speaker 15: against it. 674 00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 2: Okay, Now do you think at the moment labor is 675 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:47,400 Speaker 2: going for real gains, do you think that they will 676 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:51,280 Speaker 2: be pressured into adjusting it and going for inflation adjusted. 677 00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:54,160 Speaker 15: I do not think so. I think I think they 678 00:28:54,640 --> 00:29:00,160 Speaker 15: need the money labor, labor labor. At the moment your 679 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:02,640 Speaker 15: election policy lots to be it's a very cost of 680 00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:07,959 Speaker 15: living affordability affordability mandate. And so you're looking at GP visits. 681 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 15: You know, who knows they might slap dental here onto 682 00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:12,000 Speaker 15: that med card. They've got a few other things onto 683 00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:14,440 Speaker 15: that medic card. They are kind of looking at things 684 00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:16,720 Speaker 15: and thinking, how can we make that cheatah for people? 685 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:19,320 Speaker 15: How can we make that free for people? That probably 686 00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:23,040 Speaker 15: meant in the most cases, means subsidies. And if you 687 00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:25,160 Speaker 15: are going to subsidize stuff, then you've got to text 688 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:27,640 Speaker 15: people to pay for it. And so they really need 689 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:30,360 Speaker 15: this revenue coming in and they cannot afford to reduce it. 690 00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:32,720 Speaker 15: And let's face it, if you were to take some 691 00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:36,960 Speaker 15: inflation inflation off your CDT, then you're probably going to 692 00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:39,280 Speaker 15: have the revenue because we're not expecting massive house price 693 00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:41,520 Speaker 15: broke anymore. That is a thing of the past. So 694 00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:43,640 Speaker 15: if you're not taking inflation, then there's really not a 695 00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:44,760 Speaker 15: lot of the ift they're for you. 696 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:47,360 Speaker 2: Okay, listen, I see that you've written over the weekend 697 00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:50,480 Speaker 2: like I have about the you know, the chatter about 698 00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:53,920 Speaker 2: Luckson's leadership. What do you think, Thomas, what's the most 699 00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:56,720 Speaker 2: likely outcome? Are the MPs and National going to choose 700 00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:59,360 Speaker 2: to stick with Labor with Luxe and sorry, or are 701 00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:01,040 Speaker 2: they going to chew to switch to Bishop. 702 00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:03,640 Speaker 15: What's a bit of a Freudian slip there, I guess, 703 00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:05,360 Speaker 15: like if you're stick with lux and now you're sticking 704 00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:08,240 Speaker 15: with later. I know that's a real question, I know, 705 00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:11,640 Speaker 15: but you know it's what everyone is thinking. It's I 706 00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:14,080 Speaker 15: honestly think he might be quite lucky with the timing. 707 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:16,720 Speaker 15: If you are going to Roland, then you probably want 708 00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:18,680 Speaker 15: to do it the side of Christmas. You've probably only 709 00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:20,840 Speaker 15: got two more public poles the side of Christmas. You've 710 00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:23,400 Speaker 15: got the Taxpayers Union in December, and there'll probably be 711 00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:26,080 Speaker 15: elit to Torbert Mills. Now, those poles would have to 712 00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:29,400 Speaker 15: be really, really bad, and you know, well really bad, 713 00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:31,680 Speaker 15: being worse than they already are. They would have to 714 00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:34,720 Speaker 15: be really bad for you to justify rolling them. I 715 00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:36,200 Speaker 15: think at the moment there's a little bit of kite 716 00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:38,680 Speaker 15: flying going on. It doesn't look like there's a formal coupe, 717 00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:41,640 Speaker 15: it doesn't look like anything is actually sort of happening, 718 00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:44,360 Speaker 15: but I think there is a bit of chin stroking 719 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:47,880 Speaker 15: and people sort of saying, well, you know, if there 720 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:50,240 Speaker 15: were to be a leadership change, if you were to 721 00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:53,480 Speaker 15: imagine Chris Bishop in the in the ninth floor suite, 722 00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:55,760 Speaker 15: what would you think of that? And I think people 723 00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:58,240 Speaker 15: are sort of flying kites just to sort of see 724 00:30:58,280 --> 00:30:59,960 Speaker 15: how that looks without it actually being a. 725 00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:03,680 Speaker 2: Right Thomas, Thank you, Thomas Coglan, the Herald's political edits. 726 00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:05,120 Speaker 2: So I think they're gonna stick with lux and I'm 727 00:31:05,120 --> 00:31:08,360 Speaker 2: gonna explain why, and just to take seven away from five, Okay, 728 00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:10,840 Speaker 2: five away from that's actually four away from five. Listen, 729 00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:12,400 Speaker 2: this is why I think they're gonna stick with Luxel 730 00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:13,600 Speaker 2: in the end, because this is what it is, right, 731 00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:15,480 Speaker 2: They're out of choice. They've got to choose Luxon or 732 00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:17,040 Speaker 2: someone else, and the someone else at the moment, as 733 00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:19,480 Speaker 2: Bishop I reckon, they're going to stick with Luxen because 734 00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:21,520 Speaker 2: they cannot get this thing off the ground. This is 735 00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:24,760 Speaker 2: about the second or third time this year that they've 736 00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:27,760 Speaker 2: started up the chat, started feeding things to the media, 737 00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:30,640 Speaker 2: feeding things to people, feeding the chat, trying to get 738 00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:32,760 Speaker 2: the thing up in the and get momentum behind it. 739 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:34,280 Speaker 2: And every time it gets to a point where we 740 00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:36,840 Speaker 2: talk about it, it just peters out that says to me, 741 00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:38,160 Speaker 2: they're never going to get it off the ground. And 742 00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:41,640 Speaker 2: I think the problem is basically, I don't think they 743 00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:44,120 Speaker 2: can imagine Chris Bishop as the Prime Minister because remember, 744 00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:45,959 Speaker 2: to a lot of these people, Chris Bishop is the intern, 745 00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:48,800 Speaker 2: like they remember him working for Stephen Joyce in his office. 746 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:52,040 Speaker 2: It's like the intern getting the CEO's job. Sometimes you 747 00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:55,080 Speaker 2: just yeah, the jump is just too massive. Also, I 748 00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:56,640 Speaker 2: don't think it helps that he's a liberal in the 749 00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:59,800 Speaker 2: Conservative Party. But anyway, you know Luxon mainly because I 750 00:31:59,840 --> 00:32:02,440 Speaker 2: think Luxeon's a liberal and that's not working. So another 751 00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:04,560 Speaker 2: liberal is probably not going to work anyway. We'll see 752 00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:05,920 Speaker 2: what happens. We'll leave it to them, but I think 753 00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:08,600 Speaker 2: we've probably done our dash on that one. Dakota Bar. Now, 754 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:10,040 Speaker 2: I just want you to weigh in on this quickly 755 00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:11,480 Speaker 2: and we're going to talk to them in about twenty 756 00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:14,960 Speaker 2: minutes time. So, Dakota Bar and Wellington is in trouble 757 00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:17,440 Speaker 2: because they had a quiz nite and they offered us 758 00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:19,840 Speaker 2: their prize one hundred and fifty dollars bar tab and 759 00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:22,240 Speaker 2: they are now they are risk of losing their license 760 00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:25,000 Speaker 2: over that because apparently they use the wrong phrasing wording 761 00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:27,040 Speaker 2: what they should Instead of calling it a bar tab, 762 00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:30,080 Speaker 2: they should have called it a food and beverage voucher 763 00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:33,640 Speaker 2: and then they wouldn't be in trouble. Now, go, is 764 00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:36,920 Speaker 2: that a stupid rule or are they being stupid? You 765 00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:38,520 Speaker 2: let me know and we're talking to them shortly. But 766 00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:40,479 Speaker 2: next up, Chris Pink on what he's planning to do 767 00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:43,720 Speaker 2: forcing us to buy warranties for our Reno's news talk said. 768 00:32:43,560 --> 00:33:03,080 Speaker 3: By the only drive show. 769 00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:06,520 Speaker 1: You can try to ask the questions, we get the answers, 770 00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:10,480 Speaker 1: find a fag say and give the analysis here The 771 00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:14,160 Speaker 1: duplicyl and drive with one New Zealand and the power 772 00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:16,040 Speaker 1: of satellite mobile news. 773 00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:16,400 Speaker 3: Dogs, there'd be. 774 00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:20,600 Speaker 2: Afternoon. The government has filled in the missing pieces of 775 00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:23,760 Speaker 2: its building and construction reform. The outstanding question has been 776 00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:26,920 Speaker 2: who would pay for defective work if the trade can't 777 00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:29,640 Speaker 2: cover it. The answer is the homeowner. The homeowner will 778 00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:31,240 Speaker 2: have to take out a warranty to cover the work. 779 00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:33,640 Speaker 2: Chris Pink is the building in construction mini stand with us? Now, 780 00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:37,280 Speaker 2: Hi Chris, hello? Heither how much one of these warranties cost? 781 00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:42,200 Speaker 16: Well, actually, mostly people have warranties or guarantees in place 782 00:33:42,280 --> 00:33:44,880 Speaker 16: already now, so in those cases actually nothing at all. 783 00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:50,000 Speaker 16: But roughly speaking, it's around half of one percent of 784 00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:52,120 Speaker 16: the cost of a belt. So we think that's a 785 00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:54,360 Speaker 16: lot of peace of mind and it's a good trade 786 00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:56,520 Speaker 16: off for the council not having to be involved in 787 00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:58,400 Speaker 16: rate payers being on the hop to the extent they 788 00:33:58,440 --> 00:33:58,840 Speaker 16: are now. 789 00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:01,280 Speaker 2: So if you're doing a mill and a million dollar build, 790 00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:04,719 Speaker 2: you're looking at about five thousand dollars exactly. Yeah, Okay, 791 00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:06,440 Speaker 2: how would you have it if you already have it? 792 00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:11,800 Speaker 16: Oh? Because these products are already available. So think certified 793 00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:14,840 Speaker 16: builders have a guarantee called Halo register. Master builders have 794 00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:18,239 Speaker 16: their own one, and there's an insurance outfit called Stanfords 795 00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:20,000 Speaker 16: that provides building defect insurance. 796 00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:22,640 Speaker 2: So if you're using one of those builders, they're already 797 00:34:22,640 --> 00:34:23,160 Speaker 2: covered by it. 798 00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:26,080 Speaker 16: Yeah, that's right, And to be honest, most of the 799 00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:28,719 Speaker 16: reputable ones are. And if there's some builders who aren't 800 00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:31,319 Speaker 16: able to satisfy the insurers or the guarantee providers that 801 00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:33,759 Speaker 16: they're good enough quality that they want to stand behind them, 802 00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:35,600 Speaker 16: then maybe you don't want them doing your work anyway. 803 00:34:35,719 --> 00:34:39,400 Speaker 2: How far can that let's take master builders, how far 804 00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:41,480 Speaker 2: can that warranty go? Because let's say that there was 805 00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:44,399 Speaker 2: something as massive as the leaky building situation all over again, 806 00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:46,239 Speaker 2: would they be able to cover all of that? 807 00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:47,680 Speaker 13: Yeah? 808 00:34:47,719 --> 00:34:50,759 Speaker 16: Well, basically they will have to register with MB to 809 00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:53,680 Speaker 16: make sure that we've got visibility that they would have 810 00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:56,560 Speaker 16: the resources and the event of a large scale deficts 811 00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:59,400 Speaker 16: kind of claim. So, as you say, that's an important consideration. 812 00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:02,480 Speaker 16: But working through that detail now, but we're really confident 813 00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:04,680 Speaker 16: from the week that we've done with them already that 814 00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:06,840 Speaker 16: they will be able to get there and provide that assurance. 815 00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:08,560 Speaker 2: Hold on, So why would they have to register with 816 00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:10,640 Speaker 2: the MB? Would the government be the backstop here. 817 00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:13,719 Speaker 16: No, the government's not the backstop. But the government is 818 00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:17,640 Speaker 16: saying we require work north of one hundred thousand dollars 819 00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:21,320 Speaker 16: basically to have one of the approved guarantees or warranty 820 00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:24,600 Speaker 16: or insurance systems and saying, well, you know, we need 821 00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:27,200 Speaker 16: those to be robust because they need to be available 822 00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:29,440 Speaker 16: when the proverbial hits the fan? 823 00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:31,439 Speaker 2: Does master builders run out at a million dollars? 824 00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:31,600 Speaker 14: Like? 825 00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:33,880 Speaker 2: Is that the cap on the warranty? 826 00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:36,960 Speaker 16: I shouldn't speak for what the details of the scheme are, 827 00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:38,799 Speaker 16: but I know that they in certified builders have both 828 00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:42,160 Speaker 16: been working really proactively and constructively with them BETA to 829 00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:44,360 Speaker 16: work out the details. And some of it's the devil 830 00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:46,160 Speaker 16: in the detail about when you can claim and who 831 00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:48,680 Speaker 16: can claim, you know, how much experience they will want 832 00:35:48,680 --> 00:35:50,480 Speaker 16: the builders to hap and so forth. So we're going 833 00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:51,239 Speaker 16: through that detail now. 834 00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:53,839 Speaker 2: Now, is you are you putting the onus on the 835 00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:57,080 Speaker 2: homeowner because builders cannot get insurance? 836 00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:00,480 Speaker 16: No, it's the builders who would get the insurance or 837 00:36:00,520 --> 00:36:03,880 Speaker 16: the cover, but they would have it, you know, effectively, 838 00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:05,920 Speaker 16: they would pass that cost on to the homeowner. So 839 00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:08,160 Speaker 16: the point is that it won't be the rate pays 840 00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:12,040 Speaker 16: in general who are subsidizing poor building practices. It's actually 841 00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:14,640 Speaker 16: the homeowner who would you know, effectively pay a bit more, 842 00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:17,280 Speaker 16: but have that peace of mind and take the councils 843 00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:19,080 Speaker 16: out of the equation, or at least not to the 844 00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:20,200 Speaker 16: full extent that they are. 845 00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:22,360 Speaker 2: Now okay, Chris, I appreciate your time, Chris Pink Building 846 00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:23,799 Speaker 2: and Construction Minister. 847 00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:26,520 Speaker 3: Heather Duplicy Ellen, so time for a look. 848 00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:28,160 Speaker 2: At the NATS promised changes to key we Save it. 849 00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:30,960 Speaker 2: If re elected, the National Party will gradually increase the 850 00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:33,400 Speaker 2: default key we Save A contribution rate to six percent 851 00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:35,800 Speaker 2: and mandate that employers must also match at six percent, 852 00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:38,160 Speaker 2: taking it to twelve percent in total. Prime Minister told 853 00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:39,920 Speaker 2: my costing this morning that the policy will be a 854 00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:42,759 Speaker 2: bottom line for the NATS and Coalition negotiations. I don't 855 00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:45,440 Speaker 2: actually know why it is so political. I think it's 856 00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:46,640 Speaker 2: actually a common sense thing. 857 00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:48,920 Speaker 9: If you look at places like Ireland and Australia that 858 00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:51,920 Speaker 9: are wealthier, they actually have higher retirement savings. 859 00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:54,520 Speaker 2: Rupert Carline is managing director of Colder Wealth and here's 860 00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:57,880 Speaker 2: with us now, Hi, Rupert, Hi, I mean the comparison 861 00:36:57,880 --> 00:37:00,600 Speaker 2: with Aussie is not totally fair. Is it. 862 00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:03,839 Speaker 10: It's not even close to fair. We say six plus 863 00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:06,000 Speaker 10: cent six plus six to get us to towelve percent, 864 00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:10,040 Speaker 10: but actually for them it's it's semi compulsory. They're big incentives, 865 00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:13,520 Speaker 10: so people actually want to contribute, whereas here this announcement's 866 00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:15,600 Speaker 10: more like a nudge of saying, you know what, people, 867 00:37:15,680 --> 00:37:18,480 Speaker 10: you should contribute more to your quisaver, but we're not 868 00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:20,080 Speaker 10: really going to give you any reason to do so. 869 00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:23,600 Speaker 2: Do we have to make it compulsory ucing I. 870 00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:26,480 Speaker 10: Don't like compulsion because I think if we make it 871 00:37:26,480 --> 00:37:29,360 Speaker 10: compulsory without incentives, people are just going to see it 872 00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:31,880 Speaker 10: as a tax. And we know how everyone loves tax 873 00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:35,640 Speaker 10: and so to me, it's actually about giving choice. I 874 00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:38,000 Speaker 10: believe people should have the freedom to make their own decisions, 875 00:37:38,360 --> 00:37:40,799 Speaker 10: but we should be giving some form of incentives to 876 00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:42,320 Speaker 10: give them a nudge in the right direction. 877 00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:45,400 Speaker 2: What incentives well. 878 00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:51,280 Speaker 10: Internationally, so Chris Luxon used the examples of Ireland, Australia, US. 879 00:37:51,600 --> 00:37:54,520 Speaker 10: These are all countries that use tax breaks, So tax 880 00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:57,640 Speaker 10: eductions for contributions or tax eductions to allow you to 881 00:37:57,719 --> 00:38:02,120 Speaker 10: kind of make your gains tax free was designed. We 882 00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:06,360 Speaker 10: used employee er contributions to do it. So by saying 883 00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:09,960 Speaker 10: as an employer, you've got to match the employee, that 884 00:38:10,080 --> 00:38:12,000 Speaker 10: was a way of saying, if you want that extra pay, 885 00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:16,400 Speaker 10: you've got to contribute to qyvsaver. Unfortunately, that was unwound 886 00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:19,440 Speaker 10: in two thousand and nine by the National Party with 887 00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:22,439 Speaker 10: the entrance of total remmuneration policies. And what that means 888 00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:25,960 Speaker 10: now is for fifty percent of workers look to be blunt, 889 00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:28,840 Speaker 10: they're better off by not contributing to qvsaver and just 890 00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:31,080 Speaker 10: taking the cash because there is no incentive for them 891 00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:33,239 Speaker 10: to have their money locked up until they're sixty five. 892 00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:35,680 Speaker 2: Now, this is just I mean, if we're honest about it, 893 00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:38,000 Speaker 2: this is going to depress wages, isn't it Because instead 894 00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:40,120 Speaker 2: of giving you one hundred thousand dollars, they're just going 895 00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:43,480 Speaker 2: to take one hundred thousand dollars that's the available pay, 896 00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:45,399 Speaker 2: and we're going to take the twelve percent off, give 897 00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:47,080 Speaker 2: you your money, and then top it back up. That's 898 00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:47,719 Speaker 2: what's going to happen. 899 00:38:48,680 --> 00:38:50,959 Speaker 10: It is, and there's no question on there. I don't 900 00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:53,719 Speaker 10: debate that for a second. However, we have to also 901 00:38:53,760 --> 00:38:57,319 Speaker 10: acknowledge we've got a retirement system that is completely at 902 00:38:57,320 --> 00:39:01,160 Speaker 10: the moment we need to move retirement says into being 903 00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:04,920 Speaker 10: privately driven versus driven by the state. So this is 904 00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:06,640 Speaker 10: a hit that's going to have to happen at some point. 905 00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:08,719 Speaker 10: Middle of a recession is at the right time to 906 00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:11,480 Speaker 10: do it. That's a different Surely we're. 907 00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:15,120 Speaker 2: Going to be out of the recession by twenty thirty two, Well. 908 00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:17,799 Speaker 10: We would hope, so twenty five to be the year 909 00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:18,320 Speaker 10: of driving. 910 00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:22,880 Speaker 2: Jeez, honestly, shoot me now, Rupert, thanks very much appreciated, 911 00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:27,080 Speaker 2: Rupert Carline Coder, Wealth Managing Director. It's thirteen past five. 912 00:39:27,520 --> 00:39:29,640 Speaker 3: Heather dup c Allen Luke, who's. 913 00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:31,400 Speaker 2: In hospitality here that we've got two badges for the 914 00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:33,279 Speaker 2: same thing. We've got a hospitality tab and we've got 915 00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:35,920 Speaker 2: a food and drink tab. The spoilers, they're basically the 916 00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:38,680 Speaker 2: same monster wearing different hats. Where adults, we're not toddler's 917 00:39:38,680 --> 00:39:41,000 Speaker 2: on a field trip. Liquor laws aren't toddler proof fences. 918 00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:42,640 Speaker 2: Let the grown ups make the call on their tab, 919 00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:44,560 Speaker 2: whether it's for drinks or snacks or both within the 920 00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:47,000 Speaker 2: law and spare us the label gymnastics, which I think 921 00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:48,480 Speaker 2: is an absolutely fair point. We're going to talk to 922 00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:51,120 Speaker 2: the guy who runs to Cota next. This feels like 923 00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:53,960 Speaker 2: the authorities have got it in for him. Listen update 924 00:39:53,960 --> 00:39:56,920 Speaker 2: about one of the friends of the show, Craig Renie. 925 00:39:56,920 --> 00:40:00,440 Speaker 2: Big day for Craig beg weekend for Craig because the 926 00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:03,080 Speaker 2: world's worst kept secrets has come to pass. In fact, 927 00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:06,520 Speaker 2: Craig has taken a big step towards becoming a future 928 00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:09,560 Speaker 2: finance minister for the Labor Party. This weekend he was 929 00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:12,480 Speaker 2: selected as the Labor candidate for the Wellington Bays electorate. 930 00:40:12,920 --> 00:40:17,520 Speaker 2: With well done Craig, which he did say, remember what 931 00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:18,960 Speaker 2: he said when he was on the show, said I'm 932 00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:21,520 Speaker 2: not going to be making any announcements on this show. Well, 933 00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:23,960 Speaker 2: you know, we should have we should have probed a 934 00:40:23,960 --> 00:40:26,480 Speaker 2: bit harder because clearly he had an announcement he wanted 935 00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:29,240 Speaker 2: to make. That's the old Wrong Attire electorate by the way. Anyway, 936 00:40:29,719 --> 00:40:31,000 Speaker 2: so we've decided, where. 937 00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:32,720 Speaker 3: Have we decided, Laura, have we decided? 938 00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:35,200 Speaker 2: We're not sure. We're sort of like, should we keep 939 00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:39,520 Speaker 2: him on the huddle because I mean, now he's completely predictable. 940 00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:40,719 Speaker 2: He's just going to say all the stuff that the 941 00:40:40,800 --> 00:40:42,640 Speaker 2: Labor Party wants him to say. But then Laura did 942 00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:46,759 Speaker 2: say to me well, was he ever not doing that? 943 00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:49,640 Speaker 2: We were like, no, he wasn't. So anyway, we're still 944 00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:52,800 Speaker 2: we're still about whether we keep Renny on the huddle. 945 00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:54,640 Speaker 2: We're going to We're going to bring him back one 946 00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:56,520 Speaker 2: more time at the very least, so we can bully 947 00:40:56,640 --> 00:40:58,279 Speaker 2: him a little bit, and then after that we'll make 948 00:40:58,280 --> 00:41:00,480 Speaker 2: a decision. Anyways, it's open for polling if you want 949 00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:03,760 Speaker 2: quarter pass. Now, you know, staying connected isn't just convenient 950 00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:06,800 Speaker 2: right nowadays it is critical. And with one New Zealand satellite, 951 00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:09,759 Speaker 2: which is powered by Starlink, you get coverage across New 952 00:41:09,840 --> 00:41:12,440 Speaker 2: Zealand where the traditional towers don't even reach. That's forty 953 00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:15,000 Speaker 2: percent more of our land mass. You can even get 954 00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:17,440 Speaker 2: coverage when you're out at sea on average up to 955 00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:19,799 Speaker 2: eighty five nautical miles. Now it is no secret that 956 00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:22,000 Speaker 2: business doesn't just happen in board rooms anymore. It happens 957 00:41:22,040 --> 00:41:23,840 Speaker 2: on the side of the road, it happens on site, 958 00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:26,439 Speaker 2: on the farm, on the move, sometimes in places where 959 00:41:26,480 --> 00:41:29,160 Speaker 2: coverage used to drop off. Now, with a satellite ready 960 00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:32,680 Speaker 2: phone and plan, your team can text, send photos, voice notes, 961 00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:35,239 Speaker 2: even short videos from anywhere in New Zealand that they 962 00:41:35,280 --> 00:41:38,080 Speaker 2: can see the sky and when the unexpected hits, storms, 963 00:41:38,080 --> 00:41:41,360 Speaker 2: outage as natural disasters. Satellite coverage means that your business 964 00:41:41,360 --> 00:41:44,120 Speaker 2: stays connected, so as well as better coverage, it's an 965 00:41:44,160 --> 00:41:46,640 Speaker 2: added layer of safety as well for your people wherever 966 00:41:46,680 --> 00:41:49,360 Speaker 2: work takes them. The only way to get this world 967 00:41:49,400 --> 00:41:52,239 Speaker 2: first satellite connectivity for your business in New Zealand, the 968 00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:56,560 Speaker 2: only way is with one New Zealand together do for 969 00:41:56,640 --> 00:41:59,600 Speaker 2: Sea Island either, you've got to remove them from the huddle. 970 00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:05,279 Speaker 2: I mean we're still discussing it. You know, it could 971 00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:07,160 Speaker 2: be fun. It could be fun, couldn't it Because we 972 00:42:07,200 --> 00:42:09,319 Speaker 2: can we can maybe we can get the inside oil 973 00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:11,560 Speaker 2: on labor, party stuff. You never know, you never know. 974 00:42:11,600 --> 00:42:14,560 Speaker 2: We could push our luck with at nineteen past five, now, 975 00:42:14,960 --> 00:42:19,480 Speaker 2: a popular Wellington nightclub is facing a licensed suspension all 976 00:42:19,480 --> 00:42:21,600 Speaker 2: over a bar tab.

I mean, it doesn't matter 989 00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:54,440 Speaker 8: how you dress it up, it's all the same thing. 990 00:42:54,719 --> 00:42:56,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, who told you? With the Wellington City Council you 991 00:42:56,960 --> 00:42:58,560 Speaker 2: should have called it a food and beverage voucher. 992 00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:03,280 Speaker 8: That's coming from the head of the alcohol licening team. 993 00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:06,120 Speaker 2: Did they tell you? Did they give you a warning? 994 00:43:07,640 --> 00:43:10,799 Speaker 8: They send me I have received a warning because I've 995 00:43:10,800 --> 00:43:13,000 Speaker 8: got a couple of bars. They sent me a warning 996 00:43:13,040 --> 00:43:16,280 Speaker 8: from one bar. And then because this is the practice 997 00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:18,480 Speaker 8: that we've been using, well I have been using for 998 00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:21,960 Speaker 8: twenty years, and so I don't agree with the change 999 00:43:21,960 --> 00:43:25,040 Speaker 8: of terminology, but I'm happy to try and work with it. 1000 00:43:25,360 --> 00:43:28,160 Speaker 8: So I did try and change it. But then in 1001 00:43:28,200 --> 00:43:29,799 Speaker 8: one of my other bars it was put out there 1002 00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:32,120 Speaker 8: again as well for a bar tab for another promotion, 1003 00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:34,839 Speaker 8: which was we do a bingo night, The same sort 1004 00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:37,480 Speaker 8: of thing and so I got another warning for that, 1005 00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:41,759 Speaker 8: and so I changed my terminology. And then there was 1006 00:43:41,800 --> 00:43:46,680 Speaker 8: a poster that I used all last year which also 1007 00:43:46,800 --> 00:43:50,240 Speaker 8: has it in it too, and I reused that poster 1008 00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:53,120 Speaker 8: which I forgot that it had bar tab on it 1009 00:43:53,160 --> 00:43:55,719 Speaker 8: as well. And this was the final straw for the 1010 00:43:55,760 --> 00:43:58,400 Speaker 8: licening team, and so they put me through to Alah 1011 00:43:58,960 --> 00:44:02,480 Speaker 8: asking for now. She wants this ninety six hour suspension 1012 00:44:04,160 --> 00:44:07,640 Speaker 8: or cancelation of my license. This is what she's asking for. 1013 00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:10,920 Speaker 2: Okay, so it's pretty serious. Hose have we got a 1014 00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:13,359 Speaker 2: bit weird about booze in this country? I mean, like, 1015 00:44:13,640 --> 00:44:15,799 Speaker 2: I'm not a big drinker anymore. I've got children, so 1016 00:44:15,840 --> 00:44:18,280 Speaker 2: I can't. So I'm not trying to defend my favorite 1017 00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:20,400 Speaker 2: hobby or anything like that. But I do feel like 1018 00:44:20,480 --> 00:44:25,680 Speaker 2: we have got weird again about alcohol, haven't we. 1019 00:44:24,360 --> 00:44:27,400 Speaker 8: Well, it depends on where you live, because each area 1020 00:44:27,760 --> 00:44:31,000 Speaker 8: they can interpret the laws a little bit differently, and 1021 00:44:31,080 --> 00:44:33,680 Speaker 8: unfortunately here in Wontington we seem to have some of 1022 00:44:33,719 --> 00:44:35,520 Speaker 8: the stricter interpretations. 1023 00:44:35,680 --> 00:44:38,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I hate you guys on Courtney Place. 1024 00:44:39,520 --> 00:44:39,799 Speaker 13: They do. 1025 00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:45,759 Speaker 8: Yes, yep, you know ironically, when people do redeem our 1026 00:44:45,840 --> 00:44:49,960 Speaker 8: barthab ninety five percent of the sales will be food 1027 00:44:50,440 --> 00:44:54,560 Speaker 8: and non alcoholic drinks from the bathab So it's not 1028 00:44:54,600 --> 00:44:57,560 Speaker 8: like we have a problem with intoxication. Yeah, because people 1029 00:44:57,560 --> 00:44:59,719 Speaker 8: are coming in and getting hammered when they're winning. 1030 00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:02,200 Speaker 2: Good luck fighting this because this does seem a bit silly. 1031 00:45:02,280 --> 00:45:06,080 Speaker 2: Jose Ubiaga, who's the owner of Courtney Place Bar, Dakota. Look, 1032 00:45:07,080 --> 00:45:09,560 Speaker 2: I just wonder if we're starting to kind of double 1033 00:45:09,600 --> 00:45:11,279 Speaker 2: back on ourselves and go back to you know, you 1034 00:45:11,320 --> 00:45:13,000 Speaker 2: know the time of Kate Shepard where we were like, 1035 00:45:13,360 --> 00:45:18,120 Speaker 2: you know, try getting really like really wokes through about alcohol. 1036 00:45:18,120 --> 00:45:19,680 Speaker 2: Are we headed back that way? If we're going to 1037 00:45:19,760 --> 00:45:22,640 Speaker 2: do language policing, we're like, you mustn't call it a bartap, 1038 00:45:22,680 --> 00:45:24,840 Speaker 2: you must call it a food and alcohol beverage. We 1039 00:45:24,920 --> 00:45:26,560 Speaker 2: are starting to get a bit weird, aren't we, Like 1040 00:45:26,560 --> 00:45:28,360 Speaker 2: maybe we need to check ourselves. Anyway, I'll throw this 1041 00:45:28,400 --> 00:45:30,239 Speaker 2: to the huddle later on five p. Twenty two. 1042 00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:33,920 Speaker 1: The name you trust to get the answers you need, 1043 00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:38,240 Speaker 1: it's Heather Duper Clan drive with one New Zealand coverage 1044 00:45:38,360 --> 00:45:40,440 Speaker 1: like no one else used talk. 1045 00:45:40,320 --> 00:45:42,400 Speaker 3: There'd be five twenty four. 1046 00:45:42,480 --> 00:45:44,480 Speaker 2: Right, let's talk about inan New Zealand. If I was 1047 00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:46,799 Speaker 2: in New Zealand. I would feel pretty beaten up after 1048 00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:49,560 Speaker 2: the weekend's opinion pieces because, as you know, Bruce Cottrel, 1049 00:45:49,560 --> 00:45:51,200 Speaker 2: who we spoke to earlier in the show, wrote a 1050 00:45:51,239 --> 00:45:53,600 Speaker 2: piece in one newspaper complaining that if in in New 1051 00:45:53,680 --> 00:45:55,239 Speaker 2: Zealand want to charge as much as they do, then 1052 00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:56,680 Speaker 2: they have to do the job better and be on 1053 00:45:56,760 --> 00:45:59,520 Speaker 2: time more often. And then Sam Stubbs wrote a piece 1054 00:45:59,600 --> 00:46:03,240 Speaker 2: in another newspaper telling them to stop overcharging domestic travelers. 1055 00:46:03,560 --> 00:46:06,520 Speaker 2: Now I cannot explain the timing. I can't explain why 1056 00:46:06,600 --> 00:46:09,480 Speaker 2: both those guys wrote harsh pieces about the same airline 1057 00:46:09,719 --> 00:46:12,680 Speaker 2: on the same weekend. But what's weirder about it is 1058 00:46:12,719 --> 00:46:14,840 Speaker 2: that I almost did exactly the same thing. I almost 1059 00:46:14,880 --> 00:46:16,320 Speaker 2: had a bit of a rant about Air New Zealand 1060 00:46:16,360 --> 00:46:18,080 Speaker 2: myself this weekend because I had to pull out of 1061 00:46:18,120 --> 00:46:20,600 Speaker 2: an event on account of their ticket prices. What it 1062 00:46:20,719 --> 00:46:22,080 Speaker 2: was is, the husband and I were planning to go 1063 00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:24,960 Speaker 2: to a thing in Wellington, started doing all the organizing, 1064 00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:28,080 Speaker 2: had the babysitter covered, organized to work out of Wellington 1065 00:46:28,160 --> 00:46:30,719 Speaker 2: for the day, went to book the flight. Saw the 1066 00:46:30,760 --> 00:46:34,520 Speaker 2: flight prices pretty close to one thousand dollars return per person, 1067 00:46:34,600 --> 00:46:37,400 Speaker 2: and I could not justify that. That is ridiculous. Now, 1068 00:46:37,480 --> 00:46:40,080 Speaker 2: I don't have a problem, as I've said a thousand times, 1069 00:46:40,200 --> 00:46:42,239 Speaker 2: due with Air New Zealand making as much money as 1070 00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:44,800 Speaker 2: it wants to. I wanted to make money. I'm a shareholder. 1071 00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:48,160 Speaker 2: We all are shareholders through the government. It does have 1072 00:46:48,320 --> 00:46:50,640 Speaker 2: to balance that with customer loyalty, though, because Ere New 1073 00:46:50,719 --> 00:46:54,239 Speaker 2: Zealand is now so overpriced that I cannot justify using it. 1074 00:46:54,320 --> 00:46:56,520 Speaker 2: For the first time in my working life, I don't 1075 00:46:56,560 --> 00:46:59,839 Speaker 2: have CORU anymore, I cannot justify the expense. And while 1076 00:46:59,880 --> 00:47:02,239 Speaker 2: I have the same problem as Bruce Cottrel, I don't 1077 00:47:02,280 --> 00:47:05,120 Speaker 2: want to fly Jetstar out of loyalty to Air New Zealand. 1078 00:47:05,360 --> 00:47:07,400 Speaker 2: I reckon give it a year. I reckon by this 1079 00:47:07,520 --> 00:47:09,600 Speaker 2: time next year, I'm going to be flying Jetstar. The 1080 00:47:09,680 --> 00:47:12,200 Speaker 2: flight from Auckland to Wellington on Air New Zealand for 1081 00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:14,440 Speaker 2: the event was five hundred dollars per person just one 1082 00:47:14,480 --> 00:47:17,200 Speaker 2: way right Auckland to Wellington five hundred dollars. The same 1083 00:47:17,280 --> 00:47:19,840 Speaker 2: flight on Jetstar at a better time was about one 1084 00:47:19,920 --> 00:47:22,839 Speaker 2: hundred and fifty dollars. That's in New Zealand's problem right there. 1085 00:47:23,000 --> 00:47:25,200 Speaker 2: They're chasing their customers away. One day they're going to 1086 00:47:25,239 --> 00:47:27,040 Speaker 2: wake up. They don't realize it now, but one day 1087 00:47:27,040 --> 00:47:28,080 Speaker 2: they're going to wake up and they're going to be 1088 00:47:28,120 --> 00:47:30,000 Speaker 2: surprised at how popular Jetstar is, and they're going to 1089 00:47:30,080 --> 00:47:31,880 Speaker 2: regret the fact that heaps of us tried out the 1090 00:47:31,960 --> 00:47:34,040 Speaker 2: Orange Bird and found it's not that bad, and in 1091 00:47:34,160 --> 00:47:36,080 Speaker 2: New Zealand will want us back and struggle to get 1092 00:47:36,160 --> 00:47:38,399 Speaker 2: us back. And maybe the reason that Bruce and Sam 1093 00:47:38,760 --> 00:47:41,520 Speaker 2: and maybe even me criticized Air New Zealand on the 1094 00:47:41,560 --> 00:47:44,879 Speaker 2: same weekend is that we're only saying what everybody's already thinking. 1095 00:47:45,520 --> 00:47:49,160 Speaker 2: Heather dupers the Alan, whether it's the law, health and safety, 1096 00:47:49,280 --> 00:47:53,200 Speaker 2: dummy host responsibility, Oh yeah, no, yeah, it's real. I 1097 00:47:53,520 --> 00:47:56,040 Speaker 2: think calling something a bar tab is really irresponsible. But 1098 00:47:56,160 --> 00:47:59,799 Speaker 2: giving a food and beverage voucher whatever, it's the same 1099 00:47:59,840 --> 00:48:01,759 Speaker 2: thing at the end, is just a different word. It's 1100 00:48:01,960 --> 00:48:05,080 Speaker 2: very a Willien, different name. It's obviously a phrase, very 1101 00:48:05,120 --> 00:48:08,640 Speaker 2: a Willian. Right, we're talking about the food wastage next. 1102 00:48:09,080 --> 00:48:10,640 Speaker 2: If you haven't caught up on this, we said it 1103 00:48:10,640 --> 00:48:12,719 Speaker 2: at the start of the show. We're wasting about two 1104 00:48:12,800 --> 00:48:15,560 Speaker 2: hundred and thirty seven kilograms of food each per year. 1105 00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:17,520 Speaker 2: But it's not you and I who's doing it right? 1106 00:48:17,600 --> 00:48:19,400 Speaker 2: So everybody else it's the farmers and the growers and 1107 00:48:19,480 --> 00:48:21,960 Speaker 2: the retailers and the wholesalers and the food processes. So 1108 00:48:22,040 --> 00:48:23,560 Speaker 2: we'll find out why this is happening on what we 1109 00:48:23,600 --> 00:48:25,440 Speaker 2: can do about it. Next news talks that beat you 1110 00:48:25,560 --> 00:48:25,840 Speaker 2: got to. 1111 00:48:25,920 --> 00:48:30,000 Speaker 3: Me Good Decision Lived now a living DNA way. 1112 00:48:35,200 --> 00:48:37,640 Speaker 1: On your smart speaker, on the iHeart app and in 1113 00:48:37,760 --> 00:48:40,720 Speaker 1: your car on your drive home it's Heather duplicy Ellen 1114 00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:44,239 Speaker 1: Drive with One New Zealand and the power of satellite 1115 00:48:44,280 --> 00:48:45,440 Speaker 1: Mobile news talks. 1116 00:48:45,480 --> 00:48:47,640 Speaker 8: That'd bet Judith of that. 1117 00:48:48,120 --> 00:48:52,880 Speaker 3: So can you come?

Now we've 1131 00:49:24,520 --> 00:49:27,520 Speaker 2: got new food waste stats out. It turns out consumers 1132 00:49:27,560 --> 00:49:29,719 Speaker 2: are not the biggest wasters. It's actually everyone else in 1133 00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:32,160 Speaker 2: the food chain, from the growers to the processes to 1134 00:49:32,239 --> 00:49:34,400 Speaker 2: the retailers. They waste two thirds of the stuff that 1135 00:49:34,480 --> 00:49:37,280 Speaker 2: we throw away, most of it is edible. It adds 1136 00:49:37,360 --> 00:49:39,480 Speaker 2: up to about two hundred and thirty seven CAGs per 1137 00:49:39,520 --> 00:49:42,400 Speaker 2: person per year. Sheila Skeief is a professor at the 1138 00:49:42,480 --> 00:49:45,439 Speaker 2: University of Otago and wrote the report. High Sheila, Hello, 1139 00:49:45,680 --> 00:49:46,959 Speaker 2: why are they throwing it away? 1140 00:49:48,800 --> 00:49:52,600 Speaker 12: I don't think it's just primary and process and we've 1141 00:49:52,640 --> 00:49:55,960 Speaker 12: also got a lot of food waste happening at and households. 1142 00:49:56,440 --> 00:49:58,919 Speaker 12: But I mean, if we think about things on farm, 1143 00:49:59,080 --> 00:50:00,959 Speaker 12: you know, we're part of the problem too. Is people 1144 00:50:01,000 --> 00:50:03,000 Speaker 12: don't want to buy wonky fruit or things that are 1145 00:50:03,080 --> 00:50:05,320 Speaker 12: you know, not the right size. I'm just as guilty 1146 00:50:05,600 --> 00:50:08,279 Speaker 12: of that as anybody. So yeah, those are some of 1147 00:50:08,360 --> 00:50:11,080 Speaker 12: the reasons why. And food safety is a huge problem too. 1148 00:50:11,120 --> 00:50:12,560 Speaker 12: Of course, we have to look at food safety. 1149 00:50:12,960 --> 00:50:14,680 Speaker 2: Are you talking about in terms of the best buy 1150 00:50:14,800 --> 00:50:17,320 Speaker 2: date and the used by date with they don't I'm. 1151 00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:18,640 Speaker 15: Not gonna Yeah, that's one of it. 1152 00:50:18,920 --> 00:50:22,160 Speaker 12: But even even having things you know that maybe they're 1153 00:50:22,160 --> 00:50:24,560 Speaker 12: starting to not you know, they're not at the you know, 1154 00:50:24,640 --> 00:50:27,120 Speaker 12: at the best, even primary produce, it's not best. I'm 1155 00:50:27,120 --> 00:50:29,960 Speaker 12: not necessarily talking about packaged foods, but you know they 1156 00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:32,120 Speaker 12: maybe they're you know, starting to welter bed. And then 1157 00:50:32,160 --> 00:50:34,399 Speaker 12: it's a matter of decision of whether you know you're 1158 00:50:34,400 --> 00:50:36,640 Speaker 12: gonna you're gonna get that product and then use it, 1159 00:50:36,719 --> 00:50:37,799 Speaker 12: or whether you're gonna throw it away. 1160 00:50:38,239 --> 00:50:40,160 Speaker 2: She live, isn't there're a market here in a cost 1161 00:50:40,239 --> 00:50:43,320 Speaker 2: of living crisis for selling US an apple that's a 1162 00:50:43,320 --> 00:50:45,399 Speaker 2: little undersized in US, paying twenty percent least. 1163 00:50:46,640 --> 00:50:48,680 Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean, I think it's a really good point. 1164 00:50:49,520 --> 00:50:52,239 Speaker 12: It is hard to break. It's very hard to change 1165 00:50:52,280 --> 00:50:55,000 Speaker 12: people's behaviors, I think, and even myself. You know, when 1166 00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:57,400 Speaker 12: you go to go and you're looking through, you're always 1167 00:50:57,440 --> 00:50:59,520 Speaker 12: kind of looking for I don't are we looking for 1168 00:50:59,600 --> 00:51:01,719 Speaker 12: the best food? I mean, I do try to buy 1169 00:51:01,760 --> 00:51:04,840 Speaker 12: the wonky bags of fruit and things like that, But 1170 00:51:05,120 --> 00:51:07,120 Speaker 12: it is a matter of kind of changing our mindset 1171 00:51:07,200 --> 00:51:09,760 Speaker 12: a little bit about what we were willing to purchase. 1172 00:51:10,560 --> 00:51:12,120 Speaker 2: Is it economically viable for them? 1173 00:51:12,160 --> 00:51:12,359 Speaker 3: Though? 1174 00:51:12,480 --> 00:51:14,160 Speaker 2: If they have, if they've got a whole bunch of 1175 00:51:14,200 --> 00:51:17,759 Speaker 2: wonky apples to pay the labor costs of sorting it, 1176 00:51:18,040 --> 00:51:20,480 Speaker 2: then transporting it, and then selling it at a discount, 1177 00:51:20,480 --> 00:51:21,880 Speaker 2: does it actually make ends mean for them? 1178 00:51:22,520 --> 00:51:24,440 Speaker 12: I don't know the answer to that. You would have 1179 00:51:24,560 --> 00:51:27,239 Speaker 12: to contact the supermarkets. But you know, or wors what 1180 00:51:27,320 --> 00:51:29,600 Speaker 12: are they doing? You know, they're doing the wonky avocados 1181 00:51:29,680 --> 00:51:31,040 Speaker 12: and the wonky this and the wonky that. 1182 00:51:31,600 --> 00:51:33,680 Speaker 2: So I mean, maybe buy them? Buy them? 1183 00:51:34,080 --> 00:51:36,680 Speaker 12: Yeah, I do, definitely do buy them for sure, although 1184 00:51:36,680 --> 00:51:38,800 Speaker 12: I rather they weren't in a in a bag that 1185 00:51:39,040 --> 00:51:40,120 Speaker 12: was like a netted bag. 1186 00:51:40,280 --> 00:51:42,560 Speaker 2: But does she, like you notice they're not that wonky, 1187 00:51:43,080 --> 00:51:44,040 Speaker 2: Like that's still pretty good. 1188 00:51:44,080 --> 00:51:45,240 Speaker 12: They're totally not wonky. 1189 00:51:45,719 --> 00:51:47,680 Speaker 2: It's weird that they're even considered wonky. 1190 00:51:48,000 --> 00:51:50,000 Speaker 12: Yeah, no, I agree, But I think they're smaller like 1191 00:51:50,120 --> 00:51:53,000 Speaker 12: often those avocados they're in, they're quite they're small, they're 1192 00:51:53,040 --> 00:51:53,759 Speaker 12: not the bigger ones. 1193 00:51:53,880 --> 00:51:55,800 Speaker 11: So yeah, but it's fine for me. What difference? 1194 00:51:55,800 --> 00:51:56,319 Speaker 12: So I don't care. 1195 00:51:56,600 --> 00:51:58,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm with you on that. Okay, now, now on 1196 00:51:58,920 --> 00:52:00,920 Speaker 2: the bright side, we are wasting a whole lot less 1197 00:52:00,920 --> 00:52:03,480 Speaker 2: than the rest of the world. Why is that? Oh well, I. 1198 00:52:03,480 --> 00:52:08,360 Speaker 12: Wouldn't sit Well, Okay, it's a tricky one. If you 1199 00:52:08,480 --> 00:52:10,640 Speaker 12: actually go and have a look at the report, okay, 1200 00:52:11,160 --> 00:52:13,640 Speaker 12: you'll see that actually in the UK and the EU 1201 00:52:14,000 --> 00:52:17,759 Speaker 12: per capita there are half of us. But in fact 1202 00:52:17,920 --> 00:52:19,719 Speaker 12: I heard a talk last week and in Japan they're 1203 00:52:19,760 --> 00:52:23,000 Speaker 12: even lower. So it but it does depend what you measure, 1204 00:52:23,080 --> 00:52:27,040 Speaker 12: and unfortunately it's not all measuring an apple and apple. 1205 00:52:27,239 --> 00:52:29,759 Speaker 12: It's measuring different things. So there's a little bit of 1206 00:52:29,760 --> 00:52:31,000 Speaker 12: an issue with how we measure. 1207 00:52:31,360 --> 00:52:32,920 Speaker 2: So do you think we actually waste a lot more 1208 00:52:32,960 --> 00:52:33,359 Speaker 2: than we think? 1209 00:52:33,960 --> 00:52:34,000 Speaker 11: No? 1210 00:52:34,320 --> 00:52:37,360 Speaker 12: I think as as a country, okay, we produce a 1211 00:52:37,400 --> 00:52:40,279 Speaker 12: lot of food, and we're pretty good at making sure 1212 00:52:40,320 --> 00:52:43,360 Speaker 12: that we make best use of that, particularly on farm 1213 00:52:43,560 --> 00:52:45,520 Speaker 12: and in processing, because I think, you know, we've got 1214 00:52:45,840 --> 00:52:49,160 Speaker 12: good cold you know, cold chain, we've got we bring 1215 00:52:49,239 --> 00:52:51,719 Speaker 12: people into pick, pick the fruit, et cetera. So we're 1216 00:52:51,760 --> 00:52:55,040 Speaker 12: pretty good household food wasted as high as it is 1217 00:52:55,360 --> 00:52:57,000 Speaker 12: in lots of places like Europe. 1218 00:52:57,160 --> 00:52:59,080 Speaker 2: All Right, Sheila, thank you very much, really appreciate it. 1219 00:52:59,120 --> 00:53:01,960 Speaker 2: She Las Skeieve Professional Nutrition at University of Otago and 1220 00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:04,640 Speaker 2: also the author of the report twenty one Away from Sex. 1221 00:53:05,440 --> 00:53:06,760 Speaker 3: The Huddle with New Zealand. 1222 00:53:06,800 --> 00:53:10,920 Speaker 1: Southby's International Realty a name you can trust locally and globally. 1223 00:53:10,920 --> 00:53:12,800 Speaker 2: Fum the Huddle with me.

Hire you too, jose you buy the wonky fruit? 1226 00:53:21,239 --> 00:53:24,120 Speaker 17: Yes, I mean I just buy fruit. Generally, I don't 1227 00:53:24,120 --> 00:53:26,080 Speaker 17: think about it, but I do. I do wonder about 1228 00:53:26,120 --> 00:53:29,680 Speaker 17: this statistic because I actually spent the weekend cleaning out 1229 00:53:29,760 --> 00:53:32,840 Speaker 17: my spice cupboard and found spices going back to about 1230 00:53:32,880 --> 00:53:35,320 Speaker 17: twenty sixteen, and I chucked them all out. So I 1231 00:53:35,360 --> 00:53:37,880 Speaker 17: think that accounts for about one point too many tongues 1232 00:53:38,239 --> 00:53:38,719 Speaker 17: on its own. 1233 00:53:38,800 --> 00:53:41,000 Speaker 2: Did you taste it first to see if it was 1234 00:53:41,040 --> 00:53:41,480 Speaker 2: still good? 1235 00:53:42,680 --> 00:53:42,719 Speaker 11: No? 1236 00:53:43,120 --> 00:53:43,479 Speaker 3: I didn't. 1237 00:53:43,480 --> 00:53:47,919 Speaker 17: I'm not going to taste mixed spice and cardman raw 1238 00:53:48,080 --> 00:53:48,760 Speaker 17: on my tongue. 1239 00:53:48,920 --> 00:53:50,440 Speaker 2: Well, how do you know it's how do you know 1240 00:53:50,520 --> 00:53:51,279 Speaker 2: you can't cook with it? 1241 00:53:51,960 --> 00:53:53,160 Speaker 17: Are you going all greeny on me? 1242 00:53:53,280 --> 00:53:53,480 Speaker 18: Heather? 1243 00:53:53,800 --> 00:53:54,920 Speaker 2: I don't like waist. 1244 00:53:55,840 --> 00:53:59,799 Speaker 17: I just want new spices and new herbs, and I'm 1245 00:54:00,080 --> 00:54:02,399 Speaker 17: I'm actually sort of hard kind. It hard to get 1246 00:54:02,480 --> 00:54:05,040 Speaker 17: really upset about this. I mean, yes, we shouldn't waste food, 1247 00:54:05,040 --> 00:54:07,000 Speaker 17: and I have a compost and all of that, but 1248 00:54:07,160 --> 00:54:12,200 Speaker 17: you know, we've got hot warm ai pandemics, you know, 1249 00:54:12,440 --> 00:54:14,520 Speaker 17: trade blocks, god knows what else. 1250 00:54:14,800 --> 00:54:15,040 Speaker 5: I'm not. 1251 00:54:15,160 --> 00:54:17,160 Speaker 17: I'm struggling to get too worried about them. 1252 00:54:17,200 --> 00:54:19,480 Speaker 2: I'm not worried about lim. I just reckon that there's 1253 00:54:19,520 --> 00:54:22,399 Speaker 2: a market here. Like I reckon, there are willing participants 1254 00:54:22,560 --> 00:54:24,839 Speaker 2: like myself who are like, give me your wonky fruit 1255 00:54:24,920 --> 00:54:27,680 Speaker 2: and charge me forty percent less. And I'm sitting here 1256 00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:29,200 Speaker 2: going I want to pay less for fruit, and they 1257 00:54:29,239 --> 00:54:31,160 Speaker 2: want to get rid of their fruit. We should hook up, 1258 00:54:31,239 --> 00:54:31,839 Speaker 2: do you know what I mean? 1259 00:54:32,520 --> 00:54:33,960 Speaker 18: Yeah, well, I mean that's the thing. We live in 1260 00:54:33,960 --> 00:54:36,920 Speaker 18: a market economy, right, and you know, one of the 1261 00:54:37,040 --> 00:54:40,840 Speaker 18: greatest strengths of market economies, you know, for their drawbacks 1262 00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:44,080 Speaker 18: here and there, is that they produce a mess of 1263 00:54:44,160 --> 00:54:48,880 Speaker 18: suplus and abundance and food most of all, the probably 1264 00:54:48,920 --> 00:54:51,680 Speaker 18: the reason why we waste less food than other countries 1265 00:54:51,800 --> 00:54:54,320 Speaker 18: is that we're poorer than other countries. We like to 1266 00:54:54,440 --> 00:54:58,160 Speaker 18: heare ourselves, so we can't wait. You know, It's honestly 1267 00:54:58,400 --> 00:55:01,480 Speaker 18: like it's the idea that you can just magically move 1268 00:55:01,560 --> 00:55:03,560 Speaker 18: the soup busses around and they all find the right 1269 00:55:03,640 --> 00:55:06,200 Speaker 18: place or grow less. That's not how markets work. It's 1270 00:55:06,200 --> 00:55:09,480 Speaker 18: not how economies work. Having too much or something so 1271 00:55:09,600 --> 00:55:11,560 Speaker 18: that you can turn it away is actually a sign 1272 00:55:11,640 --> 00:55:14,040 Speaker 18: of prosperity. I'd like us they have more food waste 1273 00:55:14,040 --> 00:55:15,600 Speaker 18: because I'd like it to be more prosperous. 1274 00:55:16,200 --> 00:55:17,879 Speaker 17: And we're already eating the wonky fruit. 1275 00:55:18,600 --> 00:55:21,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, we are, like you literally are are you buying 1276 00:55:22,080 --> 00:55:25,160 Speaker 2: at the supermarket? It's called the odd bunch? Hey, Liam, 1277 00:55:25,200 --> 00:55:26,920 Speaker 2: what do you think of this key we sabor policy 1278 00:55:26,960 --> 00:55:27,439 Speaker 2: from the nets? 1279 00:55:27,480 --> 00:55:27,840 Speaker 3: You like it? 1280 00:55:29,320 --> 00:55:32,440 Speaker 18: I think it's good policy, It's inevitable, it's probably the 1281 00:55:32,480 --> 00:55:35,400 Speaker 18: phasing is good. It's probably a good template about how 1282 00:55:35,480 --> 00:55:38,920 Speaker 18: we have to do the national superannuation too. But look, 1283 00:55:38,960 --> 00:55:42,160 Speaker 18: i mean, look, I'm forty, I'm forty next next year, 1284 00:55:42,840 --> 00:55:45,520 Speaker 18: and I've just in all my life I've always thought, looked, 1285 00:55:45,880 --> 00:55:48,480 Speaker 18: it has to be care we favor because there's just 1286 00:55:48,560 --> 00:55:51,239 Speaker 18: not going to be enough money through through national superannuation 1287 00:55:51,360 --> 00:55:53,400 Speaker 18: when it comes to me and we have to get 1288 00:55:53,480 --> 00:55:56,960 Speaker 18: serious about it. And I'm a complete convert on kivsaver. 1289 00:55:57,080 --> 00:55:59,040 Speaker 18: I was against it when it came out, but it's 1290 00:55:59,040 --> 00:56:01,320 Speaker 18: been a real success, and actually it's going to be 1291 00:56:01,400 --> 00:56:03,200 Speaker 18: the thing that's going to have to save us because 1292 00:56:03,680 --> 00:56:07,880 Speaker 18: it's just too politically impossible to really reform superannuation. This 1293 00:56:08,080 --> 00:56:09,879 Speaker 18: is the step in the right direction. I'm not sure 1294 00:56:09,920 --> 00:56:12,400 Speaker 18: how politically popular it's going to be if you you know, 1295 00:56:12,480 --> 00:56:14,919 Speaker 18: I mean, it is taking money out of you week 1296 00:56:14,960 --> 00:56:17,960 Speaker 18: to week paycheck. You're telling people that they can't manage 1297 00:56:18,000 --> 00:56:21,200 Speaker 18: that for themselves, but it's a necessity. So I'm not 1298 00:56:21,239 --> 00:56:23,400 Speaker 18: sure if it's great politics, but it's good economics. 1299 00:56:23,520 --> 00:56:23,680 Speaker 11: Yeah. 1300 00:56:23,719 --> 00:56:26,280 Speaker 2: I mean I think Liam's onto something which is Josie, 1301 00:56:26,280 --> 00:56:27,759 Speaker 2: which is that it is going to have to save us, 1302 00:56:27,840 --> 00:56:30,160 Speaker 2: probably from the pension situation. But it's only going to 1303 00:56:30,200 --> 00:56:32,280 Speaker 2: save us if we make it compulsory. Are you okay 1304 00:56:32,560 --> 00:56:35,640 Speaker 2: with the government making it compulsory at six percent from 1305 00:56:35,680 --> 00:56:37,160 Speaker 2: you and six percent from the employer? 1306 00:56:38,200 --> 00:56:40,680 Speaker 17: So I'm not in favor of making it compulsory for 1307 00:56:40,760 --> 00:56:44,160 Speaker 17: two reasons. One is that sometimes businesses want to just 1308 00:56:44,320 --> 00:56:47,080 Speaker 17: plow their money into their business, and they know how 1309 00:56:47,120 --> 00:56:49,560 Speaker 17: best to spend their own money. I mean, God, I'm 1310 00:56:49,640 --> 00:56:52,640 Speaker 17: sounding like Liam here, and it's true. They know better 1311 00:56:52,640 --> 00:56:54,600 Speaker 17: how to spend their own money, and also you might 1312 00:56:54,680 --> 00:56:57,760 Speaker 17: have some people who just can't put away twelve percent 1313 00:56:57,920 --> 00:57:00,120 Speaker 17: or something. But the other thing I would say, and 1314 00:57:00,200 --> 00:57:02,960 Speaker 17: that's interesting, Liam, that you said that, because I remember running. 1315 00:57:03,040 --> 00:57:06,000 Speaker 17: Can we say the campaign pay par rental lead campaigns 1316 00:57:06,360 --> 00:57:10,200 Speaker 17: and so on? Four weeks minimum annual leave. The NAT 1317 00:57:10,480 --> 00:57:13,239 Speaker 17: hated these policies now and I think it's a really 1318 00:57:13,280 --> 00:57:15,520 Speaker 17: good thing that now we have a kind of cross 1319 00:57:15,560 --> 00:57:19,000 Speaker 17: party consensus that saving money is a really good idea. 1320 00:57:19,040 --> 00:57:21,400 Speaker 17: It's what Australia did. One of the reasons they're richer 1321 00:57:21,480 --> 00:57:24,000 Speaker 17: than us and pay perntal ly is a good idea, 1322 00:57:24,120 --> 00:57:27,040 Speaker 17: and so four weeks annually. So good to hear you 1323 00:57:27,120 --> 00:57:30,960 Speaker 17: agree with that, Comrade Liam well Pers. 1324 00:57:31,280 --> 00:57:33,840 Speaker 18: The politics of it is anything rather than offend. They're 1325 00:57:34,040 --> 00:57:36,680 Speaker 18: soon to be retiring boomers, right, so I think. 1326 00:57:37,120 --> 00:57:40,120 Speaker 2: Liam, I don't want them to touch my pens, and 1327 00:57:40,240 --> 00:57:42,200 Speaker 2: either they could bug it off off. I'm not even 1328 00:57:42,240 --> 00:57:44,800 Speaker 2: the boomer, although maybe I am in my spirit. All Right, 1329 00:57:44,840 --> 00:57:46,680 Speaker 2: we'll take a break. You guys come back to the 1330 00:57:46,720 --> 00:57:48,720 Speaker 2: huddle shortly. Hither The carrots at Pack and Save are 1331 00:57:48,800 --> 00:57:51,720 Speaker 2: so deranged it makes me think of Trump stories. Sixteen 1332 00:57:51,760 --> 00:57:52,560 Speaker 2: away from six. 1333 00:57:53,880 --> 00:57:57,600 Speaker 1: The Huddle with New Zealand Southeby's International Realty, the only 1334 00:57:57,760 --> 00:57:59,440 Speaker 1: truly global brand right. 1335 00:57:59,440 --> 00:58:01,840 Speaker 2: Back with a herd of Liam here and josephccarney. Liam, 1336 00:58:02,240 --> 00:58:04,760 Speaker 2: you will have seen the Taxpayers Union Curier poll about 1337 00:58:04,760 --> 00:58:07,680 Speaker 2: the inflation adjustment on the CGT and then everybody likes it. 1338 00:58:07,960 --> 00:58:09,680 Speaker 2: Do you think label will do that or they just 1339 00:58:09,720 --> 00:58:10,880 Speaker 2: too greedy for the dollars? 1340 00:58:11,680 --> 00:58:14,200 Speaker 18: They definitely won't do it, and don't give them too 1341 00:58:14,240 --> 00:58:18,400 Speaker 18: much credit for that, because national really have missed the 1342 00:58:18,440 --> 00:58:22,320 Speaker 18: trick and a lot of inflation indexing too. The reality 1343 00:58:22,440 --> 00:58:25,160 Speaker 18: is that parties of you know, both political parties, both 1344 00:58:25,200 --> 00:58:28,160 Speaker 18: major little parties, in fact all of them really are 1345 00:58:28,280 --> 00:58:33,800 Speaker 18: just too tempted to gobble up the bounty of inflation. 1346 00:58:34,560 --> 00:58:37,560 Speaker 18: And you know, I'm pretty sure the economics of their 1347 00:58:37,640 --> 00:58:41,000 Speaker 18: labor CG just won't stack up without the inflation adjustments. 1348 00:58:41,120 --> 00:58:45,520 Speaker 18: So just my way in hell that said, it's completely fair. 1349 00:58:45,760 --> 00:58:48,120 Speaker 18: It's it's it's completely fair to to do it. They 1350 00:58:48,120 --> 00:58:50,080 Speaker 18: should be doing it for income tax as well. 1351 00:58:51,000 --> 00:58:52,400 Speaker 2: What's completely fair. 1352 00:58:53,080 --> 00:58:55,120 Speaker 18: It's completely fair to index it for inflation. 1353 00:58:55,280 --> 00:58:57,880 Speaker 5: We should shouldn't be texting. 1354 00:58:57,040 --> 00:59:00,560 Speaker 18: People on what they're real especially for realization based taxes. 1355 00:59:01,160 --> 00:59:05,240 Speaker 18: But that's it's the most fear thing that could possibly 1356 00:59:05,280 --> 00:59:07,800 Speaker 18: have into our tax estent. That's why it's popular across 1357 00:59:07,800 --> 00:59:11,040 Speaker 18: the boards, both for income tax as well. But there's 1358 00:59:11,080 --> 00:59:13,120 Speaker 18: too much money and governments will never give up that 1359 00:59:13,240 --> 00:59:16,680 Speaker 18: ability to easily increase taxes or that he tell anyone. 1360 00:59:16,400 --> 00:59:18,120 Speaker 2: You'd agree that agree with that? Ajos? 1361 00:59:18,880 --> 00:59:21,560 Speaker 17: Well, no, but everybody wants to pay less tax, right, 1362 00:59:21,640 --> 00:59:23,640 Speaker 17: So if you ask people do you think it should 1363 00:59:23,680 --> 00:59:26,280 Speaker 17: be inflation index they'll all say, yes, I want to 1364 00:59:26,320 --> 00:59:28,880 Speaker 17: pay less. And but Liam, you're right that if you're 1365 00:59:28,880 --> 00:59:31,120 Speaker 17: going to do it for capital gains tax, then you 1366 00:59:31,240 --> 00:59:33,560 Speaker 17: have to do it for income tax too and that 1367 00:59:33,800 --> 00:59:35,960 Speaker 17: But the problem then is that we always have a 1368 00:59:36,040 --> 00:59:39,680 Speaker 17: political debate, don't we about fiscal drag and whether or 1369 00:59:39,760 --> 00:59:42,800 Speaker 17: not to let inflation increase your tax take. And so 1370 00:59:42,960 --> 00:59:45,400 Speaker 17: that is a political decision. And I think whether for 1371 00:59:45,520 --> 00:59:49,200 Speaker 17: income tax or for CGT or any tax, you have 1372 00:59:49,360 --> 00:59:51,600 Speaker 17: to you have to make that a political decision. You 1373 00:59:51,640 --> 00:59:56,120 Speaker 17: can't just say we're going to now do inflation indexing 1374 00:59:56,200 --> 00:59:59,320 Speaker 17: for every tax because the tax take would massively drop 1375 00:59:59,680 --> 01:00:01,080 Speaker 17: and then you've got to work out what you're going 1376 01:00:01,120 --> 01:00:01,400 Speaker 17: to cut. 1377 01:00:02,040 --> 01:00:05,040 Speaker 18: One correction, it's not about paying less. It's about paying 1378 01:00:05,160 --> 01:00:07,960 Speaker 18: the same, it's not not wanting to pay more. That's 1379 01:00:07,960 --> 01:00:09,880 Speaker 18: the whole point of the indexation is to keep it 1380 01:00:09,960 --> 01:00:13,080 Speaker 18: real on constant terms. Like the idea that indexation is 1381 01:00:13,120 --> 01:00:15,160 Speaker 18: some kind of tax cut, which is what Labour said 1382 01:00:15,200 --> 01:00:17,200 Speaker 18: in the past, is just wrong. It's just not right 1383 01:00:17,280 --> 01:00:18,560 Speaker 18: in the caves. 1384 01:00:19,000 --> 01:00:21,920 Speaker 17: But there is always a debate, isn't there amongst political 1385 01:00:22,000 --> 01:00:24,320 Speaker 17: parties as to whether or not you're going to let 1386 01:00:24,400 --> 01:00:26,720 Speaker 17: the fiscal drag go on or whether you're going to 1387 01:00:26,920 --> 01:00:29,920 Speaker 17: have sort of bring in the brackets and adjust it. 1388 01:00:30,160 --> 01:00:32,280 Speaker 17: So what I'm saying is that those have to be 1389 01:00:32,520 --> 01:00:35,080 Speaker 17: political discussions and we have to vote on what we 1390 01:00:35,160 --> 01:00:37,480 Speaker 17: want or not. If you make it a law or 1391 01:00:37,560 --> 01:00:40,760 Speaker 17: a rule that you're going to you're going to index 1392 01:00:40,840 --> 01:00:44,480 Speaker 17: every tax to inflation, then you're going to have some 1393 01:00:44,680 --> 01:00:47,320 Speaker 17: massive questions to answer, which is how the hell you're 1394 01:00:47,320 --> 01:00:48,280 Speaker 17: going to pay for stuff now? 1395 01:00:48,320 --> 01:00:50,320 Speaker 5: But it is done elsewhere. 1396 01:00:50,440 --> 01:00:52,720 Speaker 18: It's done the United States, for example, and it's been 1397 01:00:52,760 --> 01:00:56,720 Speaker 18: a game changer for the low tax cause, which is 1398 01:00:56,960 --> 01:01:00,200 Speaker 18: which is probably why if they say it's a political decision. 1399 01:01:01,240 --> 01:01:03,400 Speaker 2: Liam, can you explain why everybody's heading on air in 1400 01:01:03,440 --> 01:01:05,880 Speaker 2: New Zealand this week more. 1401 01:01:07,400 --> 01:01:08,440 Speaker 8: Well, you know, like. 1402 01:01:11,800 --> 01:01:13,280 Speaker 18: You can get Josey to start, Well, I'll get them 1403 01:01:13,280 --> 01:01:13,760 Speaker 18: my thoughts on that. 1404 01:01:13,840 --> 01:01:16,680 Speaker 2: Okay, go Josie. Why is everybody in New Zealand this weekend? 1405 01:01:17,240 --> 01:01:17,680 Speaker 17: Oh God? 1406 01:01:17,720 --> 01:01:18,480 Speaker 11: Where do I start? 1407 01:01:18,680 --> 01:01:22,360 Speaker 17: So the service is bloody awful? I mean you go on. 1408 01:01:22,480 --> 01:01:25,040 Speaker 17: I've had flights canceled and then I've ended up in 1409 01:01:25,160 --> 01:01:28,920 Speaker 17: christ Church instead of Auckland for bloody hours, hours and 1410 01:01:29,000 --> 01:01:31,400 Speaker 17: hours at midnight till three am, and then wait for 1411 01:01:31,520 --> 01:01:34,320 Speaker 17: flight at five am. They lose your bags and then 1412 01:01:34,320 --> 01:01:36,360 Speaker 17: they give you a thirty dollars option. So the service 1413 01:01:36,480 --> 01:01:40,400 Speaker 17: is low budget. The price is so expensive. And but 1414 01:01:40,680 --> 01:01:43,000 Speaker 17: wherever there's a wonderful airline and I'm a great fan 1415 01:01:43,080 --> 01:01:45,040 Speaker 17: of air Chatterms, I have to say, but whether's an 1416 01:01:45,040 --> 01:01:48,880 Speaker 17: air Chatterms or a jet Star competing, especially jets Star, 1417 01:01:49,200 --> 01:01:52,240 Speaker 17: then suddenly as prices go down, so I just feel 1418 01:01:52,280 --> 01:01:54,800 Speaker 17: like they're taking us for a ride and they're going 1419 01:01:54,840 --> 01:01:57,000 Speaker 17: to it's going to hurt them because if you get 1420 01:01:57,080 --> 01:02:00,800 Speaker 17: more players coming in air chatams grow it Star starts 1421 01:02:00,840 --> 01:02:04,040 Speaker 17: to take up more customers than they're going to. 1422 01:02:04,040 --> 01:02:06,280 Speaker 2: Be in Trusbling, Liam, do you fly the Orange Bird? 1423 01:02:06,360 --> 01:02:06,520 Speaker 11: Yes? 1424 01:02:07,880 --> 01:02:11,160 Speaker 2: Not yes, I mean I'm about too though. How far 1425 01:02:11,280 --> 01:02:12,800 Speaker 2: away are you from flying the Orange Bird? 1426 01:02:13,800 --> 01:02:17,560 Speaker 18: Well, we don't have I've never had too many issues 1427 01:02:17,560 --> 01:02:20,200 Speaker 18: personally with the New Zealand. It might because palstof airports 1428 01:02:20,240 --> 01:02:23,040 Speaker 18: so excellent that you know, like it's they never really 1429 01:02:23,080 --> 01:02:25,840 Speaker 18: ever have any problems. But the but the issue was 1430 01:02:25,960 --> 01:02:28,280 Speaker 18: this year is I think what's sort of frustrating to 1431 01:02:28,360 --> 01:02:31,320 Speaker 18: me is that it's exactly what Josie said about, you know, 1432 01:02:31,400 --> 01:02:34,480 Speaker 18: the need when this competition they they up their game 1433 01:02:34,520 --> 01:02:37,640 Speaker 18: and they reduce their prices until that competition is driven 1434 01:02:37,680 --> 01:02:39,880 Speaker 18: out of the you know, it's like this natural monopoly 1435 01:02:40,480 --> 01:02:43,080 Speaker 18: that that you know, you know, only ever periodically you 1436 01:02:43,160 --> 01:02:46,320 Speaker 18: have good airline service because it's only depends on whether 1437 01:02:46,400 --> 01:02:47,640 Speaker 18: or not they're trying to drive someone. 1438 01:02:47,480 --> 01:02:47,840 Speaker 1: Out or not. 1439 01:02:48,040 --> 01:02:49,920 Speaker 18: So I think, you know, there's a sort of structure 1440 01:02:49,960 --> 01:02:50,640 Speaker 18: all there that has to. 1441 01:02:50,640 --> 01:02:51,120 Speaker 3: Be looked at. 1442 01:02:51,680 --> 01:02:54,480 Speaker 17: Can I say one thing, Heather. They're also changing that 1443 01:02:54,760 --> 01:02:57,320 Speaker 17: the miles frequent mild plans and so you can't get 1444 01:02:57,320 --> 01:02:59,760 Speaker 17: into the current club anymore by flying lots. I have 1445 01:03:00,240 --> 01:03:02,280 Speaker 17: years I've literally brought my kids up in the Corow 1446 01:03:02,360 --> 01:03:05,400 Speaker 17: clubs who hoover the free food, but the all blacks 1447 01:03:05,400 --> 01:03:08,440 Speaker 17: for autographs. That's stealing that away from us. Now it's 1448 01:03:08,480 --> 01:03:10,640 Speaker 17: gonna make it harder, not fair. 1449 01:03:10,960 --> 01:03:14,120 Speaker 2: I know everything, everything good. First they took the newspapers, 1450 01:03:14,160 --> 01:03:15,840 Speaker 2: then they took the cups that you could take on 1451 01:03:15,920 --> 01:03:18,680 Speaker 2: the plane. Now they're taking the Cora club away all together. Guys, 1452 01:03:18,760 --> 01:03:21,560 Speaker 2: thanks very much appreciated.

It's written by Francisco Hernandez, a Green MP. 1475 01:04:30,640 --> 01:04:33,880 Speaker 2: It's literally like he's really gone hard on it. It 1476 01:04:33,960 --> 01:04:37,960 Speaker 2: starts like this, six hundred hours to seven thirty, so 1477 01:04:38,520 --> 01:04:40,600 Speaker 2: he's got in blocks of one and a half hours, 1478 01:04:40,600 --> 01:04:42,520 Speaker 2: so from six am to seven thirty. This is how 1479 01:04:42,560 --> 01:04:48,200 Speaker 2: it starts. I got up in the morning. Of course, 1480 01:04:48,240 --> 01:04:50,440 Speaker 2: you got up in the morning, you idiot. Everybody did. 1481 01:04:50,840 --> 01:04:53,800 Speaker 2: I got up in the morning as usual and followed 1482 01:04:53,840 --> 01:04:57,600 Speaker 2: my normal morning routine, first checking my emails and the 1483 01:04:57,640 --> 01:05:00,760 Speaker 2: billion signal. I am not joking. This is how we 1484 01:05:00,840 --> 01:05:04,480 Speaker 2: started it. This morning I signed off on some constituency 1485 01:05:04,560 --> 01:05:06,200 Speaker 2: work that I had been going back and forth with 1486 01:05:06,280 --> 01:05:08,840 Speaker 2: my adviser on and I triached, no, we don't care, 1487 01:05:09,320 --> 01:05:15,840 Speaker 2: we don't care. Then I went off and had a shower. Mate, 1488 01:05:15,920 --> 01:05:18,600 Speaker 2: we don't do I think he's missed a brief like, 1489 01:05:19,160 --> 01:05:21,040 Speaker 2: is this a sense of humor? I don't get it, 1490 01:05:21,920 --> 01:05:23,960 Speaker 2: because I hope you had a shower. You don't have 1491 01:05:24,040 --> 01:05:26,600 Speaker 2: to tell me you had a shower totally cold water, 1492 01:05:27,000 --> 01:05:29,840 Speaker 2: not even a tidy but hot or cold. Unlike at home, 1493 01:05:30,400 --> 01:05:32,400 Speaker 2: we know that it's hot cold. We know it's warm 1494 01:05:32,480 --> 01:05:34,919 Speaker 2: at home. We have showers at home. I made sure 1495 01:05:34,960 --> 01:05:39,120 Speaker 2: I had all the things I needed for cop powerbank, USB, cable, laptop, 1496 01:05:39,360 --> 01:05:44,200 Speaker 2: water bottle. Honestly, even his toothbrush. It's just eight forty 1497 01:05:44,280 --> 01:05:48,040 Speaker 2: five to ten. I finally went inside and went through 1498 01:05:48,120 --> 01:05:51,040 Speaker 2: the last security checkpoint where they do a body and 1499 01:05:51,160 --> 01:05:53,760 Speaker 2: baggage scan. This is honestly, it just goes through the 1500 01:05:53,960 --> 01:05:55,920 Speaker 2: entire Thank god he wraps to say it for it 1501 01:05:56,040 --> 01:05:58,120 Speaker 2: four pm, because I don't think I could have gone 1502 01:05:58,200 --> 01:06:02,200 Speaker 2: much longer. Anyway, I'd love to see the readership numbers. 1503 01:06:02,640 --> 01:06:05,880 Speaker 2: It'd be so bad. It's the worst thing I've ever read. Anyway, 1504 01:06:05,920 --> 01:06:08,000 Speaker 2: there is something interesting. I'll get to it SHORTLYNG. 1505 01:06:11,640 --> 01:06:15,480 Speaker 1: What We're business Who meets Insight the Business Hour with 1506 01:06:15,640 --> 01:06:19,800 Speaker 1: Heather Duplessy Allen and Mass Motor Vehicle Insurance, Your futures 1507 01:06:20,000 --> 01:06:20,960 Speaker 1: in good Hands? 1508 01:06:21,280 --> 01:06:22,160 Speaker 3: News talks that be. 1509 01:06:24,680 --> 01:06:26,800 Speaker 2: Evening coming up to the next hour, Simon Bridges, the 1510 01:06:26,840 --> 01:06:29,360 Speaker 2: Auckland Chamber boss, on the Green shoots that he's seeing, 1511 01:06:29,560 --> 01:06:32,000 Speaker 2: Shane Soley on what to expect from the Reserve Bank 1512 01:06:32,040 --> 01:06:34,640 Speaker 2: on Wednesday, Probably a cut and also get you back 1513 01:06:34,640 --> 01:06:37,160 Speaker 2: to that Green MP's weird diary over in Brazil at 1514 01:06:37,240 --> 01:06:39,720 Speaker 2: seven past six with us Now is Nikola Willis the 1515 01:06:39,760 --> 01:06:43,080 Speaker 2: Finance Minister. Hi, Nikola, Hi, Ever, now is it true 1516 01:06:43,120 --> 01:06:45,400 Speaker 2: that you've asked the public service bosses to find savings 1517 01:06:45,440 --> 01:06:46,120 Speaker 2: ahead of the budget. 1518 01:06:46,160 --> 01:06:50,360 Speaker 11: Again, I've been telling the public service bosses and ministers 1519 01:06:50,520 --> 01:06:53,880 Speaker 11: to find savings every day since we came into government. 1520 01:06:54,080 --> 01:06:57,880 Speaker 11: My message has been consistent, which is you should always 1521 01:06:57,960 --> 01:07:01,600 Speaker 11: be looking for efficiencies, ways of doing things better and 1522 01:07:01,720 --> 01:07:05,000 Speaker 11: more effectively, finding dollars that are tied up in the 1523 01:07:05,080 --> 01:07:07,320 Speaker 11: back office that could be put into the front line 1524 01:07:07,360 --> 01:07:10,360 Speaker 11: for KIWIS. That's been a perpetual mission Arge. 1525 01:07:11,080 --> 01:07:12,840 Speaker 2: So no renewed push ahead of the budget. 1526 01:07:13,760 --> 01:07:15,800 Speaker 11: Well, we're always pushing for it, and of course part 1527 01:07:15,840 --> 01:07:18,000 Speaker 11: of the budget is that we want to fund additional 1528 01:07:18,080 --> 01:07:21,160 Speaker 11: services for KIWIS, whether that's more funding for schools, more 1529 01:07:21,200 --> 01:07:24,360 Speaker 11: funding for hospitals, and so we're always saying to public servants. 1530 01:07:24,800 --> 01:07:26,920 Speaker 11: The more you find us in savings, the more we 1531 01:07:27,040 --> 01:07:28,120 Speaker 11: can put into those things. 1532 01:07:28,280 --> 01:07:30,320 Speaker 2: So the hardest part of the budget of how much 1533 01:07:30,360 --> 01:07:31,000 Speaker 2: you want them to find. 1534 01:07:32,160 --> 01:07:34,040 Speaker 11: Well, when I go into the budget, I've always got 1535 01:07:34,160 --> 01:07:36,280 Speaker 11: two tallies. On one side, I've got the telly of 1536 01:07:36,520 --> 01:07:38,880 Speaker 11: all of the things I want to do and that 1537 01:07:39,000 --> 01:07:41,360 Speaker 11: I want to fund that I think that I would 1538 01:07:41,360 --> 01:07:43,680 Speaker 11: be in our aspiration. And then on the other telly, 1539 01:07:43,760 --> 01:07:45,840 Speaker 11: I've got what are the dollars I can put towards 1540 01:07:45,920 --> 01:07:49,760 Speaker 11: that without blowing out the debt and the spending. And 1541 01:07:50,120 --> 01:07:53,560 Speaker 11: so how much we do depends on how much we save, 1542 01:07:53,720 --> 01:07:55,680 Speaker 11: and how much we save depends on how much we do. 1543 01:07:55,800 --> 01:07:56,920 Speaker 11: So it's an iterative process. 1544 01:07:56,920 --> 01:07:59,360 Speaker 2: Okay, So why is David Seymour not involved this year 1545 01:07:59,400 --> 01:07:59,920 Speaker 2: for the first time? 1546 01:08:00,760 --> 01:08:03,440 Speaker 11: Oh, he is involved. That article missed the fact that 1547 01:08:03,520 --> 01:08:08,880 Speaker 11: he is one of the budget ministers. Well, he is 1548 01:08:08,920 --> 01:08:10,720 Speaker 11: a budget minister, and have him on the show. He'll 1549 01:08:10,760 --> 01:08:12,680 Speaker 11: confirm for you that we've already had budget in. 1550 01:08:12,720 --> 01:08:15,200 Speaker 2: The tle that he is not involved in the cost savings. 1551 01:08:15,360 --> 01:08:18,960 Speaker 11: He doesn't. What he means is he doesn't have a 1552 01:08:19,040 --> 01:08:24,000 Speaker 11: specific delegation to go off and do an independent savings exercise. 1553 01:08:24,080 --> 01:08:27,160 Speaker 11: Which was something we specifically did in last year's budget. 1554 01:08:27,439 --> 01:08:29,760 Speaker 11: He doesn't have that, but I tell you, across his 1555 01:08:29,920 --> 01:08:34,360 Speaker 11: portfolios and across his ministers and the act party's portfolios, 1556 01:08:34,720 --> 01:08:36,000 Speaker 11: I have no doubt they'll be doing that. 1557 01:08:36,160 --> 01:08:38,000 Speaker 2: Why doesn't he have a specific job this time? 1558 01:08:39,280 --> 01:08:42,439 Speaker 11: Because we're running the process from the center. He supports 1559 01:08:42,520 --> 01:08:45,040 Speaker 11: me in that process. I call him my fiscal friend. 1560 01:08:45,040 --> 01:08:48,000 Speaker 2: Because he so Have you asked him not to help 1561 01:08:48,040 --> 01:08:48,400 Speaker 2: this time? 1562 01:08:49,600 --> 01:08:51,479 Speaker 11: Well, no, it's just that last time I asked him 1563 01:08:51,479 --> 01:08:54,360 Speaker 11: to lead a specific exercise, and this year I haven't 1564 01:08:54,400 --> 01:08:54,840 Speaker 11: repeated that. 1565 01:08:55,040 --> 01:08:57,000 Speaker 2: Is it true that he found three billion dollars worth 1566 01:08:57,040 --> 01:08:59,479 Speaker 2: of savings last time? But then all the ministers vetoed 1567 01:08:59,560 --> 01:09:01,320 Speaker 2: it and it don't ended up as only being one 1568 01:09:01,439 --> 01:09:02,360 Speaker 2: hundred and fifteen million. 1569 01:09:03,080 --> 01:09:04,599 Speaker 11: I wouldn't characterize it that way. 1570 01:09:04,800 --> 01:09:07,400 Speaker 2: No, well I would, And is it true? 1571 01:09:08,720 --> 01:09:11,040 Speaker 11: Well I wouldn't characterize it that way. How would you 1572 01:09:11,200 --> 01:09:13,760 Speaker 11: characterizers that were put Well, some of the proposals that 1573 01:09:13,880 --> 01:09:18,160 Speaker 11: were put for directly contradicted commitments from various political parties 1574 01:09:19,240 --> 01:09:23,400 Speaker 11: or were things that would undermine initiatives that we had elsewhere. 1575 01:09:23,520 --> 01:09:28,280 Speaker 11: So I don't think we're actionable. Yeah think that, Yeah, 1576 01:09:29,200 --> 01:09:30,360 Speaker 11: I don't want to. I don't want to get into 1577 01:09:30,360 --> 01:09:32,479 Speaker 11: a tip for tat as I say, we're working together 1578 01:09:32,800 --> 01:09:33,960 Speaker 11: to deliver a good Is he. 1579 01:09:34,000 --> 01:09:36,439 Speaker 2: Doing a lot of testing at the moment? Is he Nikola? 1580 01:09:36,680 --> 01:09:38,880 Speaker 11: It feels like no, No, I don't. I don't think 1581 01:09:38,880 --> 01:09:40,920 Speaker 11: he is. But I think generalists like you like to 1582 01:09:41,000 --> 01:09:43,560 Speaker 11: invite people like me to say things that can be 1583 01:09:43,640 --> 01:09:46,160 Speaker 11: taken out of context and characterized that way. We're working 1584 01:09:46,240 --> 01:09:48,560 Speaker 11: together on the budget, we have shared objectives. 1585 01:09:49,400 --> 01:09:51,640 Speaker 2: Now what is going on with Simon Watts? Is he 1586 01:09:51,880 --> 01:09:54,040 Speaker 2: or is he not? Because he has said both ways 1587 01:09:54,080 --> 01:09:56,080 Speaker 2: and I am so confused. Now is he? Is he 1588 01:09:56,280 --> 01:09:59,920 Speaker 2: not going to buy offshore carbon credits? He's not going 1589 01:10:00,120 --> 01:10:02,080 Speaker 2: to do so why is he setting up the mechanism 1590 01:10:02,160 --> 01:10:02,439 Speaker 2: to do it? 1591 01:10:04,280 --> 01:10:07,640 Speaker 11: Well, as you know, good old James Shaw signed us 1592 01:10:07,800 --> 01:10:12,559 Speaker 11: up to this NDC commitment so that it goes above 1593 01:10:12,640 --> 01:10:17,000 Speaker 11: and beyond our domestic emission reduction targets, and we've got 1594 01:10:17,040 --> 01:10:20,479 Speaker 11: a commitment there. So he's exploring, well, what are the 1595 01:10:20,560 --> 01:10:24,040 Speaker 11: ways that we could meet that commitment? But the reality 1596 01:10:24,160 --> 01:10:27,280 Speaker 11: is we're not going to be buying overseas carbon credits. 1597 01:10:27,360 --> 01:10:28,960 Speaker 11: That won't be how we do it. We're not telling 1598 01:10:29,280 --> 01:10:30,519 Speaker 11: billions of dollars offshore. 1599 01:10:30,680 --> 01:10:32,759 Speaker 2: Okay, so are you telling me that when he tells 1600 01:10:32,840 --> 01:10:36,160 Speaker 2: newsroom that he is prepared to pull the trigger on 1601 01:10:36,280 --> 01:10:39,200 Speaker 2: buying those credits and he has mechanisms and deals in 1602 01:10:39,280 --> 01:10:41,519 Speaker 2: place that would allow him to do that, he's just 1603 01:10:41,600 --> 01:10:42,240 Speaker 2: playing pretend. 1604 01:10:42,920 --> 01:10:45,680 Speaker 11: Well, the mechanisms that he's talking about are things like 1605 01:10:45,800 --> 01:10:48,040 Speaker 11: the fact that New Zealand has a lot of technology 1606 01:10:48,400 --> 01:10:51,759 Speaker 11: that is heading towards being commercialized that could be valuable 1607 01:10:51,800 --> 01:10:56,080 Speaker 11: for New Zealand domestically but also internationally. He's talking about 1608 01:10:56,160 --> 01:10:58,400 Speaker 11: the fact that, of course we do work with our 1609 01:10:58,600 --> 01:11:03,880 Speaker 11: Pacific partners and particular on client climate adaptation projects and 1610 01:11:04,040 --> 01:11:07,400 Speaker 11: other assistants with them and their emissions. So there are 1611 01:11:07,560 --> 01:11:11,000 Speaker 11: things that we contribute internationally already and are likely to 1612 01:11:11,160 --> 01:11:14,479 Speaker 11: contribute in future. And I think he's just looking at 1613 01:11:14,520 --> 01:11:17,000 Speaker 11: what are all the ways that we can consider our grosth. 1614 01:11:16,800 --> 01:11:17,439 Speaker 15: No, no, no, no, no no. 1615 01:11:18,600 --> 01:11:20,920 Speaker 2: He is very clear in this that he is talking 1616 01:11:21,000 --> 01:11:24,720 Speaker 2: about buying from other countries carbon credits, right, So if 1617 01:11:24,800 --> 01:11:26,439 Speaker 2: we're not going to do it, then why is he 1618 01:11:26,600 --> 01:11:27,960 Speaker 2: Why is he preparing those deals? 1619 01:11:29,200 --> 01:11:30,760 Speaker 11: Well, Lock, you'll have to talk to him about that, 1620 01:11:30,960 --> 01:11:32,080 Speaker 11: but we're not seending. 1621 01:11:31,840 --> 01:11:34,640 Speaker 2: All money dollars finance ministers. So why is he doing this? 1622 01:11:35,280 --> 01:11:36,560 Speaker 11: Well, you've heard what I've got to say on it, 1623 01:11:36,640 --> 01:11:39,080 Speaker 11: don't you. We will not be sending billions of dollars 1624 01:11:39,240 --> 01:11:40,320 Speaker 11: offshore to buy. 1625 01:11:40,280 --> 01:11:42,760 Speaker 2: Cap So then why is a minister wasting his time 1626 01:11:42,880 --> 01:11:44,240 Speaker 2: doing this? Is he playing pretend? 1627 01:11:45,920 --> 01:11:48,240 Speaker 11: Well, I think he's making sure that he has a 1628 01:11:48,320 --> 01:11:51,519 Speaker 11: set of options available for the Cabinet and for us 1629 01:11:51,600 --> 01:11:53,840 Speaker 11: to deliberate on. But it's not just me saying we're 1630 01:11:53,880 --> 01:11:56,160 Speaker 11: not sending billions of dollars off shore. The Prime Minister 1631 01:11:56,320 --> 01:11:57,599 Speaker 11: is you know how this looks? 1632 01:11:57,640 --> 01:12:00,160 Speaker 2: I mean basically what it is is if you there 1633 01:12:00,160 --> 01:12:02,599 Speaker 2: will be people who want you to buy those credits, 1634 01:12:02,600 --> 01:12:04,400 Speaker 2: who are going to be like, yay, the government's doing it. 1635 01:12:04,720 --> 01:12:06,320 Speaker 2: And what it does is for people like me who 1636 01:12:06,360 --> 01:12:08,360 Speaker 2: don't want you to send twenty four billion dollars off shore, 1637 01:12:08,360 --> 01:12:10,080 Speaker 2: it freaks us out because it looks like you're doing it. 1638 01:12:11,720 --> 01:12:13,640 Speaker 11: Well, look, I think, as I say, he's looking at 1639 01:12:13,680 --> 01:12:16,120 Speaker 11: a number of mechanisms, some of which might be technology 1640 01:12:16,240 --> 01:12:18,439 Speaker 11: transfer in others and he's looking at what the option. 1641 01:12:18,280 --> 01:12:21,280 Speaker 2: Isn't this part of the problem with your government at 1642 01:12:21,320 --> 01:12:23,360 Speaker 2: the moment is that you guys are playing both sides 1643 01:12:23,439 --> 01:12:26,320 Speaker 2: instead of just being really clear about what you're actually doing. 1644 01:12:27,200 --> 01:12:30,080 Speaker 11: How much clearer can I be? And can the Prime 1645 01:12:30,120 --> 01:12:33,639 Speaker 11: Minister be that we are not sending billions? 1646 01:12:33,720 --> 01:12:36,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's cause you're saying but can you see the 1647 01:12:36,680 --> 01:12:39,200 Speaker 2: problem for the rest of us. You're saying that while 1648 01:12:39,240 --> 01:12:42,160 Speaker 2: your minister strikes up deals that allows you to potentially 1649 01:12:42,280 --> 01:12:42,479 Speaker 2: do it. 1650 01:12:43,520 --> 01:12:47,479 Speaker 11: Well, I think it's you have to Simon Watts to 1651 01:12:47,600 --> 01:12:50,479 Speaker 11: get well. I think Simon Watts is the right person 1652 01:12:51,080 --> 01:12:54,360 Speaker 11: to characterize his comments and give you a detailed response 1653 01:12:54,439 --> 01:12:56,639 Speaker 11: on that. I'm not going to get inside his mind 1654 01:12:56,720 --> 01:12:59,519 Speaker 11: and start giving you answers. He will have something to 1655 01:12:59,560 --> 01:13:02,120 Speaker 11: say on it, so I think talk to him about it. 1656 01:13:02,520 --> 01:13:06,400 Speaker 2: We'll get him on Now. Is Winston getting ready to 1657 01:13:06,479 --> 01:13:08,160 Speaker 2: play you guys off against each other? 1658 01:13:08,400 --> 01:13:11,960 Speaker 11: You guys against No, that's not my sense at all. 1659 01:13:13,080 --> 01:13:17,160 Speaker 11: I actually, when I look at what he's doing, he's 1660 01:13:17,200 --> 01:13:20,880 Speaker 11: looking at a week Labor party who are putting forward 1661 01:13:21,000 --> 01:13:24,360 Speaker 11: silly policies like additional tax, have a pretty weak team, 1662 01:13:24,840 --> 01:13:27,760 Speaker 11: and he's thinking about all of the votes he can 1663 01:13:27,880 --> 01:13:28,720 Speaker 11: steal from them. 1664 01:13:29,120 --> 01:13:32,519 Speaker 2: Okay, And do you think that in the end your 1665 01:13:32,680 --> 01:13:37,439 Speaker 2: national colleagues will choose Chris Luxon over Chris Bishop. Yes, 1666 01:13:38,120 --> 01:13:39,120 Speaker 2: what makes you so sure? 1667 01:13:40,280 --> 01:13:45,400 Speaker 11: Well, we've got a prime minister who is delivering significant reform, 1668 01:13:45,800 --> 01:13:50,760 Speaker 11: has excellent ministers, delivering the policies that National campaigned on 1669 01:13:51,120 --> 01:13:54,800 Speaker 11: and working towards the vision that our members believe in, 1670 01:13:55,000 --> 01:13:58,479 Speaker 11: that our candidates believe in, that our MP's believe in, 1671 01:13:59,400 --> 01:14:03,280 Speaker 11: and our MP's value his leadership and want to win 1672 01:14:03,760 --> 01:14:04,679 Speaker 11: the next election. 1673 01:14:05,080 --> 01:14:07,320 Speaker 2: Has somebody sat down with Bish and gone, mate, what's 1674 01:14:07,360 --> 01:14:07,880 Speaker 2: going on here? 1675 01:14:09,920 --> 01:14:10,120 Speaker 8: Well? 1676 01:14:10,400 --> 01:14:15,040 Speaker 11: Look, I think Christopher Bishop is an extremely important part 1677 01:14:15,200 --> 01:14:18,799 Speaker 11: of the National Party team. He is our campaign manager. 1678 01:14:19,400 --> 01:14:21,720 Speaker 11: He is the person driving what I think will be 1679 01:14:21,800 --> 01:14:25,240 Speaker 11: the most significant economic reform of this government, which is 1680 01:14:25,439 --> 01:14:29,439 Speaker 11: replacing the Resource Management Act. He will vary shortly announce 1681 01:14:29,520 --> 01:14:34,960 Speaker 11: an overhaul of regional government and streamline. 1682 01:14:35,080 --> 01:14:37,040 Speaker 2: Has anyone sat down with him and going what's up? 1683 01:14:37,880 --> 01:14:39,960 Speaker 11: Well, look, I sit down with Chris Bishop all the time. 1684 01:14:40,040 --> 01:14:41,280 Speaker 11: I talked to him all the time. I don't have 1685 01:14:41,600 --> 01:14:44,080 Speaker 11: secret to anyone who land that he's going on here. 1686 01:14:44,280 --> 01:14:46,639 Speaker 2: With all the rumors about you you launching the coup. 1687 01:14:47,520 --> 01:14:50,600 Speaker 11: Well, I think we all agree that you guys in 1688 01:14:50,640 --> 01:14:53,080 Speaker 11: the media, I don't like to put you all under 1689 01:14:53,080 --> 01:14:53,559 Speaker 11: the same brand. 1690 01:14:53,560 --> 01:14:53,840 Speaker 2: Welcome. 1691 01:14:54,040 --> 01:14:57,360 Speaker 11: The truth is you have been having this debate with 1692 01:14:57,479 --> 01:15:01,240 Speaker 11: yourselves four years now, every a few months the same thing. 1693 01:15:01,360 --> 01:15:03,360 Speaker 11: Let's have a little discussion about whether or not all 1694 01:15:03,439 --> 01:15:07,240 Speaker 11: as well in the National Party camp. Let's read what 1695 01:15:08,680 --> 01:15:09,559 Speaker 11: connected together? 1696 01:15:09,800 --> 01:15:12,759 Speaker 2: Your prime minister is like the most unpopular prime minister 1697 01:15:12,880 --> 01:15:14,200 Speaker 2: in modern history. That's why. 1698 01:15:14,360 --> 01:15:18,040 Speaker 11: Do you know what matters? What matters is leadership, strength, conviction, 1699 01:15:18,400 --> 01:15:21,360 Speaker 11: clarity in popularity, that's nice to have, but it's not 1700 01:15:21,439 --> 01:15:23,440 Speaker 11: a censure. I tell you she had lots of popularity. 1701 01:15:23,720 --> 01:15:26,040 Speaker 11: Her name was just Cinda R. Deurn and what she 1702 01:15:26,200 --> 01:15:29,640 Speaker 11: delivered for the country was an absolute mess. So I 1703 01:15:29,720 --> 01:15:31,760 Speaker 11: look for a bit more than popularity in my prod. 1704 01:15:31,800 --> 01:15:34,799 Speaker 2: Mister Nichola, thanks for your time. Appreciate it. Nikola willis 1705 01:15:34,840 --> 01:15:38,160 Speaker 2: the Finance Minister.

And if we do it, 1725 01:16:24,800 --> 01:16:26,320 Speaker 2: we'll try and do it around this time, maybe six 1726 01:16:26,439 --> 01:16:28,840 Speaker 2: thirty or something, So stay tuned for that. I'll you 1727 01:16:28,880 --> 01:16:30,400 Speaker 2: will have noticed it. Did you notice the thing that 1728 01:16:30,560 --> 01:16:33,559 Speaker 2: just happened? I asked Nikoler if anybody spoken to Bish 1729 01:16:33,600 --> 01:16:36,960 Speaker 2: about it? And I ask three times and she wouldn't answer. 1730 01:16:37,479 --> 01:16:39,680 Speaker 2: So we're none the wiser as to anyone as to 1731 01:16:39,720 --> 01:16:41,560 Speaker 2: whether anyone's spoken to Bish about it. But why she 1732 01:16:41,600 --> 01:16:43,120 Speaker 2: didn't want to answer that question, I guess you just 1733 01:16:43,200 --> 01:16:45,240 Speaker 2: have to fill in the blank. Yourself twenty past six, 1734 01:16:45,320 --> 01:16:48,439 Speaker 2: Shane solely harbor asset managements with us. Hello Shane, you 1735 01:16:48,920 --> 01:16:51,160 Speaker 2: so what are the markets expecting from the Reserve Bank 1736 01:16:51,200 --> 01:16:51,880 Speaker 2: in a couple of days? 1737 01:16:52,640 --> 01:16:54,800 Speaker 13: Yeah, so, look, the market's fully fat. Get in a 1738 01:16:55,200 --> 01:16:58,519 Speaker 13: zero point twenty five cut in rates, so take us 1739 01:16:58,520 --> 01:17:01,240 Speaker 13: to two twenty five is official sh rate. In fact, 1740 01:17:01,320 --> 01:17:03,880 Speaker 13: it's priced in MI zero point two seven to two 1741 01:17:03,920 --> 01:17:06,120 Speaker 13: twenty three of them. It's just the market's getting a 1742 01:17:06,160 --> 01:17:08,360 Speaker 13: little bit of ha themselves. Maybe the main focus here 1743 01:17:08,360 --> 01:17:10,519 Speaker 13: there will be on how much the Reserve Bank of 1744 01:17:10,560 --> 01:17:13,880 Speaker 13: New Zealand signals the possibility of further cuts. Does it 1745 01:17:13,960 --> 01:17:16,960 Speaker 13: come out is just another round of cuts given inflations 1746 01:17:17,320 --> 01:17:20,720 Speaker 13: stable but unemployment growth is still modest, or does it 1747 01:17:20,760 --> 01:17:23,439 Speaker 13: actually indicate that using cycle is over or close to 1748 01:17:23,600 --> 01:17:26,880 Speaker 13: over Tuesday and let the cuts do the job of 1749 01:17:27,000 --> 01:17:29,799 Speaker 13: really picking up the economy after quite a chunky series 1750 01:17:29,840 --> 01:17:32,680 Speaker 13: of cuts of the last year or so. One thing 1751 01:17:32,760 --> 01:17:34,280 Speaker 13: here that we need to keep watching for is this 1752 01:17:34,479 --> 01:17:36,640 Speaker 13: the New Zealand doll It's pretty weak when near a 1753 01:17:36,680 --> 01:17:39,439 Speaker 13: five year fifty six cents roughly against the US dollar. 1754 01:17:40,000 --> 01:17:41,760 Speaker 13: That's doing a lot of the work for the Reserve Bank. 1755 01:17:41,920 --> 01:17:44,479 Speaker 13: So yeah, when we look forward to market's actually pricing, 1756 01:17:44,520 --> 01:17:46,400 Speaker 13: and the official cash rates had a low of two 1757 01:17:46,400 --> 01:17:49,960 Speaker 13: point one percent in May twenty twenty six, so market 1758 01:17:50,040 --> 01:17:51,720 Speaker 13: thinks there's going to be more rate cuts. That'll be 1759 01:17:51,760 --> 01:17:53,800 Speaker 13: the interesting part of the discussion. 1760 01:17:54,320 --> 01:17:57,200 Speaker 2: Now we're about halfway through the current company reporting season 1761 01:17:57,240 --> 01:17:58,800 Speaker 2: here in New Zealand. Is the tone getting a little 1762 01:17:58,800 --> 01:17:59,800 Speaker 2: bit more upbeat? Do you think? 1763 01:18:00,640 --> 01:18:00,840 Speaker 19: Yeah? 1764 01:18:01,000 --> 01:18:03,679 Speaker 13: Yeah, we are halfway through. It's for the September period, 1765 01:18:03,800 --> 01:18:08,240 Speaker 13: and so far we've observed more profit beats against consensus 1766 01:18:08,360 --> 01:18:11,680 Speaker 13: market expectations and messes. That's pretty good. The last three 1767 01:18:11,760 --> 01:18:14,479 Speaker 13: years we've actually been seeing more misses than beats, so 1768 01:18:14,560 --> 01:18:15,920 Speaker 13: it feels like there's a little bit of a trend 1769 01:18:16,040 --> 01:18:17,280 Speaker 13: change something interesting. 1770 01:18:17,320 --> 01:18:17,479 Speaker 8: Though. 1771 01:18:17,520 --> 01:18:20,680 Speaker 13: Obviously up to September, the economy is pretty challenging and 1772 01:18:20,840 --> 01:18:23,040 Speaker 13: some companies have been calling that out. So there's been 1773 01:18:23,080 --> 01:18:27,200 Speaker 13: the odd little disappointment in terms of timing versus markets 1774 01:18:27,280 --> 01:18:30,559 Speaker 13: investors getting hid themselves. But you know, really the underlying 1775 01:18:30,600 --> 01:18:33,599 Speaker 13: results are looking okay. We're seeing some companies really delivering 1776 01:18:33,680 --> 01:18:37,200 Speaker 13: on their own self help and those are the companies 1777 01:18:37,240 --> 01:18:39,120 Speaker 13: that you know, when you look at it, they'll do okay. 1778 01:18:39,160 --> 01:18:41,240 Speaker 13: With the economy recovers in a hurry or not. And 1779 01:18:41,400 --> 01:18:43,479 Speaker 13: that's where I think investors are starting to focus on. 1780 01:18:44,160 --> 01:18:47,640 Speaker 13: Most companies are talking about since September, they've seen a 1781 01:18:47,760 --> 01:18:51,200 Speaker 13: noticeable pickup and activity. So we are seeing improven activity, 1782 01:18:51,320 --> 01:18:53,080 Speaker 13: So maybe that trend continues. 1783 01:18:53,160 --> 01:18:55,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, brilliant stuff. Now listen to the US markets. We've 1784 01:18:55,080 --> 01:18:57,160 Speaker 2: got a bit weird last week. Where did things get 1785 01:18:57,200 --> 01:18:57,920 Speaker 2: to over the weekend? 1786 01:18:58,000 --> 01:19:00,679 Speaker 13: Yeah, yeah, so yeah, good good went to the US 1787 01:19:01,080 --> 01:19:02,840 Speaker 13: S and P five hundred, that's the main index we 1788 01:19:02,920 --> 01:19:04,800 Speaker 13: all talk about. It was down about one point nine 1789 01:19:04,840 --> 01:19:08,799 Speaker 13: percent last week, mainly due to the technology stocks falling, 1790 01:19:09,240 --> 01:19:11,719 Speaker 13: some risks around the US Federal Reserve not cutting rates, 1791 01:19:12,200 --> 01:19:15,560 Speaker 13: in weak consumer confidence. In comparison to Zerono market she 1792 01:19:15,680 --> 01:19:18,200 Speaker 13: marker was down zero point three. So we did our 1793 01:19:18,280 --> 01:19:21,719 Speaker 13: job of protecting. But the US markets on Friday they bounced. 1794 01:19:22,479 --> 01:19:25,559 Speaker 13: There was a couple of US feed Reserve speakers came 1795 01:19:25,600 --> 01:19:27,960 Speaker 13: out and suggested actually the Central Bank had room to 1796 01:19:28,080 --> 01:19:31,840 Speaker 13: ease cut rates, particularly given call and labor markets, and 1797 01:19:31,960 --> 01:19:34,240 Speaker 13: that if you saw the US market have a bit 1798 01:19:34,280 --> 01:19:37,080 Speaker 13: of a flip and they ended stronger. So we've seen 1799 01:19:37,120 --> 01:19:38,800 Speaker 13: a bit of a pricing and of a December rate 1800 01:19:38,880 --> 01:19:42,200 Speaker 13: cut back to seventy percent. So the expectation seventy percent 1801 01:19:42,240 --> 01:19:45,519 Speaker 13: of the markets expecting the US feed to cut in December. 1802 01:19:46,040 --> 01:19:48,960 Speaker 13: That's quite a big increase. And similar we're seeing a bit. 1803 01:19:48,920 --> 01:19:49,360 Speaker 2: Of a bounce. 1804 01:19:50,880 --> 01:19:53,600 Speaker 13: US futures are showing that the US market may be 1805 01:19:53,760 --> 01:19:56,040 Speaker 13: up zero point four percent tonight. Our market here in 1806 01:19:56,080 --> 01:19:58,200 Speaker 13: his oone is up zero point six so a little 1807 01:19:58,200 --> 01:19:59,640 Speaker 13: bit of a better time coming at the end of 1808 01:19:59,640 --> 01:20:00,080 Speaker 13: the last. 1809 01:20:00,000 --> 01:20:01,920 Speaker 2: We're happy to hear that, Shane.

I think everybody's loving old mate 1817 01:20:23,920 --> 01:20:27,200 Speaker 2: quipping about Jacinda Ardun, which I think is probably fair. 1818 01:20:27,800 --> 01:20:31,320 Speaker 2: Now let's get back to the Diary of the Green 1819 01:20:31,439 --> 01:20:35,920 Speaker 2: MP Francisco Hernandez. Let me take you to his entry. 1820 01:20:35,960 --> 01:20:39,519 Speaker 2: At one o'clock thirteen hundred hours, I joined my fellow 1821 01:20:39,640 --> 01:20:42,040 Speaker 2: key we Ben Abraham for lunch and blah blah blah 1822 01:20:42,040 --> 01:20:45,560 Speaker 2: along with the Latin American youth colonial who cares. This 1823 01:20:45,720 --> 01:20:47,959 Speaker 2: is the bit that I this is the only takeaway 1824 01:20:48,160 --> 01:20:51,240 Speaker 2: worth taking away from his entire diary, is that the 1825 01:20:51,320 --> 01:20:55,800 Speaker 2: food cop is unbelievably crap. Now, I just imagine, like 1826 01:20:55,880 --> 01:20:59,280 Speaker 2: you probably that you're getting fifty five thousand people together 1827 01:20:59,760 --> 01:21:02,680 Speaker 2: and brazzell and everybody's flying. It's gonna be luxe as No, 1828 01:21:03,120 --> 01:21:04,360 Speaker 2: do you know what he got for lunch? He got 1829 01:21:04,439 --> 01:21:07,080 Speaker 2: the saddest empanada I've ever seen. It was like this 1830 01:21:07,200 --> 01:21:08,800 Speaker 2: little braw you know, you get those kind of like 1831 01:21:09,120 --> 01:21:12,360 Speaker 2: recycled paper plates, the ones that make you feel good 1832 01:21:12,400 --> 01:21:14,400 Speaker 2: about yourself. So it's like a little bit kind of 1833 01:21:14,439 --> 01:21:17,120 Speaker 2: cardboardy color, like not quite cardboardy color, but it's getting there. 1834 01:21:17,160 --> 01:21:19,559 Speaker 2: And that he got one of those, And then much 1835 01:21:19,680 --> 01:21:23,240 Speaker 2: the same color was an empanada. A sad little impanada 1836 01:21:23,280 --> 01:21:26,439 Speaker 2: is sitting on no sauce, nothing, nothing, nothing, no little leg, 1837 01:21:26,720 --> 01:21:28,719 Speaker 2: not even an attempt at a kind of like shaved 1838 01:21:29,200 --> 01:21:32,280 Speaker 2: or grated carrot on the side. Nothing, just this gray 1839 01:21:32,640 --> 01:21:34,880 Speaker 2: like gray beige thing on a gray beige plate. But 1840 01:21:34,960 --> 01:21:37,080 Speaker 2: of course you'll remember Francisco has turned up with his 1841 01:21:37,160 --> 01:21:39,600 Speaker 2: own his own pringles, so he dressed it up. He 1842 01:21:39,720 --> 01:21:42,160 Speaker 2: tarted that up. He got a slab of pringles on 1843 01:21:42,200 --> 01:21:44,799 Speaker 2: one side and a slab of pringles. You two people's 1844 01:21:44,920 --> 01:21:48,920 Speaker 2: servings of springles on this plate. Anyway, my takeaway from 1845 01:21:49,000 --> 01:21:52,519 Speaker 2: this god awful diary from him and Lord may he 1846 01:21:52,640 --> 01:21:55,040 Speaker 2: never become a government minister because can you imagine how 1847 01:21:55,520 --> 01:21:57,400 Speaker 2: he'll start the cabinet meetings with will I got up 1848 01:21:57,439 --> 01:22:00,479 Speaker 2: this morning, but my takeaway was the food it cop 1849 01:22:00,840 --> 01:22:03,160 Speaker 2: is horrific six twenty seven. 1850 01:22:03,840 --> 01:22:06,599 Speaker 3: There's no business like show business. 1851 01:22:09,479 --> 01:22:10,960 Speaker 2: You know, when you go to a concert, you like 1852 01:22:11,040 --> 01:22:13,160 Speaker 2: to take home some merch, baby, some sort of souvenir, 1853 01:22:13,280 --> 01:22:15,360 Speaker 2: something like that.

Negative 1887 01:23:57,320 --> 01:23:59,880 Speaker 2: confidence ratings have fallen twenty points that now at forty 1888 01:24:00,080 --> 01:24:02,680 Speaker 2: forty four percent, more than half of them expect the 1889 01:24:02,720 --> 01:24:05,519 Speaker 2: New Zealand economy to improve. In Simon Bridges, the Auckland 1890 01:24:05,560 --> 01:24:09,640 Speaker 2: Business Chamber Chief executives with us Allo Simon Hey evening here, So, 1891 01:24:09,680 --> 01:24:11,160 Speaker 2: I mean these numbers are good. A like, you've got 1892 01:24:11,240 --> 01:24:13,720 Speaker 2: negative confidence going from sixty four down to forty four. 1893 01:24:13,760 --> 01:24:17,479 Speaker 2: You've got neutral sentiment climbing up twelve points. However many 1894 01:24:17,560 --> 01:24:20,760 Speaker 2: to thirty nine. You've got fifty four percent of them 1895 01:24:21,000 --> 01:24:23,080 Speaker 2: now saying that the New Zealand economy is going to improve. 1896 01:24:23,080 --> 01:24:25,160 Speaker 2: That's the one that's up twelve points. What's caused this? 1897 01:24:26,400 --> 01:24:28,200 Speaker 20: Yeah, I look, I think they are good. I think 1898 01:24:28,640 --> 01:24:31,080 Speaker 20: you know, it's no rockstar economy, no one's saying that. 1899 01:24:31,280 --> 01:24:33,320 Speaker 20: But I think what you're seeing is future sort of 1900 01:24:33,400 --> 01:24:36,720 Speaker 20: beliefs and intentions from business people in Auckland and the 1901 01:24:36,800 --> 01:24:39,760 Speaker 20: economy is that it's looking better. And I suppose you say, well, 1902 01:24:39,800 --> 01:24:42,560 Speaker 20: what's causing that. I mean it's fundamentals, isn't it. I 1903 01:24:42,680 --> 01:24:45,960 Speaker 20: mean you've got around the rest of the country farmers 1904 01:24:46,040 --> 01:24:51,519 Speaker 20: with a big payout from Fonterra, record price as a 1905 01:24:51,600 --> 01:24:53,800 Speaker 20: low dollar, so that's sort of at a level, got 1906 01:24:53,880 --> 01:24:57,360 Speaker 20: to start filtering through. You've got the ocr coming down. 1907 01:24:57,439 --> 01:24:59,360 Speaker 20: It's gone from being a tough gig to being you know, 1908 01:24:59,479 --> 01:25:02,200 Speaker 20: quite stiffy milatory on the economy. And I think they 1909 01:25:02,240 --> 01:25:03,960 Speaker 20: can just see, you know, whether it's some of the 1910 01:25:04,000 --> 01:25:05,800 Speaker 20: stuff the government has been doing, or I think they've 1911 01:25:05,800 --> 01:25:07,960 Speaker 20: picked up the pace a bit on their their policy 1912 01:25:08,080 --> 01:25:12,600 Speaker 20: instead of other initiatives. For Auckland, it's just starting to 1913 01:25:12,680 --> 01:25:14,639 Speaker 20: feel a bit better and they can see that over 1914 01:25:14,760 --> 01:25:17,960 Speaker 20: the next year it is going to get a bit better. So, 1915 01:25:18,320 --> 01:25:20,519 Speaker 20: you know, some of the numbers right now, they're still 1916 01:25:20,600 --> 01:25:23,439 Speaker 20: not great. But as I say forward intentions, you know, 1917 01:25:23,600 --> 01:25:26,559 Speaker 20: a clear majority see the economy improving over the next year. 1918 01:25:26,640 --> 01:25:28,760 Speaker 20: They see revenue up over the next year. They're going 1919 01:25:28,800 --> 01:25:30,439 Speaker 20: to make more investment over the next year. 1920 01:25:30,600 --> 01:25:32,479 Speaker 2: What are the things that are still concerning them though, 1921 01:25:33,720 --> 01:25:35,280 Speaker 2: Oh well, there's definitely things that consume them. 1922 01:25:35,400 --> 01:25:38,919 Speaker 20: Look, it's a sense of lack of demand, of consumer 1923 01:25:39,040 --> 01:25:43,840 Speaker 20: sentiment that that's still pretty poor. It's stuff around you know, 1924 01:25:43,960 --> 01:25:46,639 Speaker 20: productivity and growth. They're not sort of seeing that yet. 1925 01:25:47,360 --> 01:25:50,360 Speaker 20: It's their own cash flow, it's their own ability to 1926 01:25:50,479 --> 01:25:52,320 Speaker 20: pay you off the back of that kind of lack 1927 01:25:52,360 --> 01:25:56,080 Speaker 20: of consumer confidence and lack of growth, and then it's 1928 01:25:56,560 --> 01:25:59,360 Speaker 20: down the list a little, but it's still inflation that's there. 1929 01:25:59,600 --> 01:26:02,080 Speaker 20: It's still sense that the world in terms of trade 1930 01:26:02,120 --> 01:26:03,599 Speaker 20: and geopolitics is pretty tough. 1931 01:26:04,120 --> 01:26:06,439 Speaker 2: What's your feeling do you think that next year is 1932 01:26:06,479 --> 01:26:09,000 Speaker 2: going to be a rawer? You know, come, let's say 1933 01:26:09,040 --> 01:26:11,520 Speaker 2: election time next year. Are we going to be absolutely 1934 01:26:11,640 --> 01:26:13,320 Speaker 2: going for it or is it still going to be 1935 01:26:13,360 --> 01:26:13,920 Speaker 2: a hard grind? 1936 01:26:14,400 --> 01:26:17,599 Speaker 20: Well, I've written a terrific column on this Afrano Sullivan 1937 01:26:17,640 --> 01:26:19,519 Speaker 20: and enz ed me for next week. I have to say, 1938 01:26:19,920 --> 01:26:22,720 Speaker 20: and just to give you a preview on it, I 1939 01:26:22,800 --> 01:26:26,920 Speaker 20: think what I would say is it's I'm realistically optimistic, right, 1940 01:26:27,040 --> 01:26:28,720 Speaker 20: So well, what I mean is, you know, I think 1941 01:26:28,800 --> 01:26:31,479 Speaker 20: some of the bank economists are talking three plus percent. 1942 01:26:31,840 --> 01:26:33,680 Speaker 20: I don't buy that. I mean, there's a number of 1943 01:26:33,760 --> 01:26:36,080 Speaker 20: factors there that say it to be a bit tough 1944 01:26:36,120 --> 01:26:38,479 Speaker 20: than that. You've got a close election, which in the 1945 01:26:38,680 --> 01:26:41,400 Speaker 20: end actually means a period where people kind of pull 1946 01:26:41,520 --> 01:26:43,920 Speaker 20: back a bit. You've got the potential stock market crash 1947 01:26:44,320 --> 01:26:46,439 Speaker 20: in the United States at sometimes, You've got a bunch 1948 01:26:46,520 --> 01:26:49,520 Speaker 20: of other factors. But I still say on those fundamentals 1949 01:26:49,640 --> 01:26:53,000 Speaker 20: I mentioned earlier on a CRL and an international convention center, 1950 01:26:53,400 --> 01:26:56,200 Speaker 20: some of these things. It is slowly going to grind 1951 01:26:56,240 --> 01:27:00,120 Speaker 20: its way out, but I think the heaven wait for twenty. 1952 01:27:01,760 --> 01:27:03,200 Speaker 2: Are you going to tell me how you got onto 1953 01:27:03,200 --> 01:27:06,400 Speaker 2: the snake pit a Metallica or not? I text you 1954 01:27:06,520 --> 01:27:08,000 Speaker 2: and you have left it on red. 1955 01:27:08,479 --> 01:27:11,480 Speaker 20: What I'm going to tell you is it was outstanding. 1956 01:27:11,600 --> 01:27:13,880 Speaker 20: I mean it was like a three D moving movie. 1957 01:27:13,920 --> 01:27:16,640 Speaker 20: You could see these guys sweating, you could see their facials, 1958 01:27:16,680 --> 01:27:19,720 Speaker 20: and I could tell you, for some old codges, they 1959 01:27:19,800 --> 01:27:22,200 Speaker 20: were really enjoying it, and they brought their best to this. 1960 01:27:22,360 --> 01:27:24,120 Speaker 20: I think the other thing I was just saying, if here, 1961 01:27:24,200 --> 01:27:28,360 Speaker 20: Laura is I don't know what I expected. I wondered 1962 01:27:28,360 --> 01:27:30,639 Speaker 20: if it would be kind of bogans and leather vests 1963 01:27:30,880 --> 01:27:35,080 Speaker 20: and here suits. It was a decidedly middle class affair, 1964 01:27:35,200 --> 01:27:37,040 Speaker 20: you know. So if you were in that snake pit, 1965 01:27:37,400 --> 01:27:40,479 Speaker 20: you're of a certain age, a certain vintage, and you 1966 01:27:40,600 --> 01:27:42,639 Speaker 20: weren't necessarily a bokes hold. 1967 01:27:42,479 --> 01:27:45,240 Speaker 2: On because you were there. You were there. Tiger Whitey's 1968 01:27:45,320 --> 01:27:47,360 Speaker 2: he was there. And the drummer from from Tool was 1969 01:27:47,400 --> 01:27:48,240 Speaker 2: there was he was. 1970 01:27:48,560 --> 01:27:50,439 Speaker 20: He was about a meter from me I didn't know 1971 01:27:50,560 --> 01:27:52,320 Speaker 20: him from Adam. I'm not a big Tool guy, and 1972 01:27:52,360 --> 01:27:54,760 Speaker 20: they obviously played in the weekend. But the chat next 1973 01:27:54,800 --> 01:27:56,720 Speaker 20: to me pointed out that was drummer of Tool, and 1974 01:27:56,800 --> 01:27:59,320 Speaker 20: suddenly I felt like I was quite kind of vvip. 1975 01:27:59,680 --> 01:28:01,320 Speaker 3: Well, yeah, I mean it was amazing. 1976 01:28:01,400 --> 01:28:02,760 Speaker 2: I looked at the list and went, what the hell 1977 01:28:02,760 --> 01:28:05,000 Speaker 2: are you doing there?

And this is 2013 01:29:30,840 --> 01:29:32,639 Speaker 2: because of the news that it has permission to mind. 2014 01:29:32,680 --> 01:29:35,439 Speaker 2: So you might remember it started the faster fast track 2015 01:29:35,520 --> 01:29:38,360 Speaker 2: process earlier this month.

Quarter to 2027 01:30:10,560 --> 01:30:15,080 Speaker 2: seven Gavin Gray, UK correspondence with US. Hello, Gevin, Hi there, Okay, 2028 01:30:15,120 --> 01:30:17,400 Speaker 2: how are the negotiations going over Ukraine? 2029 01:30:18,840 --> 01:30:22,000 Speaker 19: Well, it would appear progress if you listen to those 2030 01:30:22,200 --> 01:30:25,520 Speaker 19: on the American side. Indeed, to be fair, the Ukrainians 2031 01:30:25,520 --> 01:30:28,040 Speaker 19: as well, suggesting that there is progress that the Americans 2032 01:30:28,080 --> 01:30:32,200 Speaker 19: are listening to what they want more. The US Secretary 2033 01:30:32,360 --> 01:30:35,600 Speaker 19: of State Marco Rubias said a quote tremendous amount of 2034 01:30:35,680 --> 01:30:39,559 Speaker 19: progress in honing this plan, which has been cautiously welcomed 2035 01:30:39,600 --> 01:30:42,719 Speaker 19: by Russia, but certainly the leaders of Ukraine and indeed 2036 01:30:42,800 --> 01:30:45,960 Speaker 19: Europe are not comfortable with it at all. We're hoping 2037 01:30:46,040 --> 01:30:49,400 Speaker 19: of course those amendments will be more in Ukraine's favor. 2038 01:30:49,720 --> 01:30:53,000 Speaker 19: But I'm just trying to pick apart the plans, the 2039 01:30:53,200 --> 01:30:57,360 Speaker 19: counter proposal peace plans by Europe which were unveiled last 2040 01:30:57,439 --> 01:31:02,120 Speaker 19: night amid some kind of secrecy would appear and what 2041 01:31:02,320 --> 01:31:04,519 Speaker 19: is different to the American plans, and there's a little 2042 01:31:04,560 --> 01:31:07,880 Speaker 19: bit of tinkering around the side. Very interesting that they 2043 01:31:08,040 --> 01:31:11,240 Speaker 19: are considering offering Russia to come back into the G 2044 01:31:11,479 --> 01:31:14,879 Speaker 19: eight group of nations. Of course we know that Vladimir 2045 01:31:14,920 --> 01:31:17,400 Speaker 19: Putin's always been rather had his nose put out of 2046 01:31:17,439 --> 01:31:21,200 Speaker 19: place by that when they were annexed from the G 2047 01:31:21,439 --> 01:31:24,560 Speaker 19: eight back in twenty fourteen when they took on Crimea. 2048 01:31:25,520 --> 01:31:29,439 Speaker 19: And they're also saying that the sanctions, if agreed, would 2049 01:31:29,439 --> 01:31:33,320 Speaker 19: be slowly withdrawn over Russia if pieces agreed, and I 2050 01:31:33,360 --> 01:31:36,559 Speaker 19: suppose in other highlights, the European plan look at holding 2051 01:31:36,760 --> 01:31:39,479 Speaker 19: elections as soon as possible in Ukraine after the signing 2052 01:31:39,520 --> 01:31:42,000 Speaker 19: of a peace agreement. That's very similar to what Donald 2053 01:31:42,040 --> 01:31:45,320 Speaker 19: Trump's plan had suggested. The size of the Ukraine military 2054 01:31:45,400 --> 01:31:48,920 Speaker 19: cap did eight hundred thousand in peacetime, NATO agreeing not 2055 01:31:49,120 --> 01:31:53,439 Speaker 19: to permanently stationed troops in Ukraine but also saying that 2056 01:31:53,640 --> 01:31:57,080 Speaker 19: NATO fighter jets will be stationed across the border in 2057 01:31:57,160 --> 01:32:00,760 Speaker 19: Poland and saying that the article in NATO where an 2058 01:32:00,800 --> 01:32:04,040 Speaker 19: attack on one member is an attack on all members 2059 01:32:04,240 --> 01:32:07,320 Speaker 19: very much now on the table and wanting to be 2060 01:32:07,600 --> 01:32:09,880 Speaker 19: enshrined into any peace deal. 2061 01:32:10,960 --> 01:32:13,080 Speaker 2: Okay, now, what do we know about this case as 2062 01:32:13,120 --> 01:32:16,719 Speaker 2: being reported of a Romanian grooming gang and the ringleader, 2063 01:32:16,760 --> 01:32:19,599 Speaker 2: they are being offered about fifteen hundred pounds to be deported. 2064 01:32:20,880 --> 01:32:24,640 Speaker 19: Well, criminals are in this country, of course, if they 2065 01:32:24,680 --> 01:32:28,960 Speaker 19: are foreign criminals and face and a sentence of over 2066 01:32:29,040 --> 01:32:37,080 Speaker 19: about a year, are therefore compulsorily compulsorily just considered for deportation. 2067 01:32:37,680 --> 01:32:40,680 Speaker 19: Now in this case, the government is also looking at 2068 01:32:40,840 --> 01:32:44,439 Speaker 19: cases where it considers it cheaper to offer somebody about 2069 01:32:44,520 --> 01:32:47,600 Speaker 19: three and a half thousand New Zealand dollars just to 2070 01:32:47,960 --> 01:32:51,040 Speaker 19: leave the country, because they consider that cheaper than going 2071 01:32:51,080 --> 01:32:54,439 Speaker 19: through the courts and trying to get that deportation or 2072 01:32:54,479 --> 01:32:57,920 Speaker 19: to underway. In this instance, that offer of three and 2073 01:32:57,920 --> 01:33:00,639 Speaker 19: a half thousand New Zealand dollars appear to have been 2074 01:33:00,720 --> 01:33:04,479 Speaker 19: made to the ringleader of a Roumanian grooming gang in 2075 01:33:04,840 --> 01:33:09,240 Speaker 19: prison a waiting trial for ten rapes. Now, obviously this 2076 01:33:09,400 --> 01:33:11,920 Speaker 19: is not what is meant to happen. The thirty eight 2077 01:33:12,040 --> 01:33:14,960 Speaker 19: year olds are thoroughly nasty piece of work according to 2078 01:33:15,000 --> 01:33:19,160 Speaker 19: the evidence, raping, drugging, exploiting, violnable women in Scotland. And 2079 01:33:19,320 --> 01:33:22,160 Speaker 19: yet this offer was made that must it appear have 2080 01:33:22,280 --> 01:33:25,400 Speaker 19: been a mistake. What's more amazing is that during this 2081 01:33:25,640 --> 01:33:29,200 Speaker 19: court case it would appear that his right to remain 2082 01:33:29,320 --> 01:33:34,320 Speaker 19: in the UK was extended, and that's because that's all 2083 01:33:34,439 --> 01:33:37,120 Speaker 19: part of the EU settlement scheme, where a member of 2084 01:33:37,200 --> 01:33:40,320 Speaker 19: the European Union can live in the UK on a 2085 01:33:40,439 --> 01:33:43,640 Speaker 19: semi permanent basis. So the idea that that again did 2086 01:33:43,760 --> 01:33:45,760 Speaker 19: not take into account of what was happening in the 2087 01:33:45,840 --> 01:33:49,679 Speaker 19: courts is quite extraordinary and shows, I'm afraid more chaos 2088 01:33:49,760 --> 01:33:51,120 Speaker 19: at the heart of these systems. 2089 01:33:51,200 --> 01:33:54,519 Speaker 2: Yeah, it must be driving voters absolutely nuts. Now, would 2090 01:33:54,600 --> 01:33:58,800 Speaker 2: you have paid one point seven eight million pounds for 2091 01:33:58,920 --> 01:34:01,080 Speaker 2: a watch that came from the Titanic. 2092 01:34:01,479 --> 01:34:04,200 Speaker 19: And no, but what a remarkable story this is though 2093 01:34:04,520 --> 01:34:08,680 Speaker 19: the history of this watch is absolutely amazing. So probably 2094 01:34:08,880 --> 01:34:12,880 Speaker 19: the richest couple aboard the Titanic when it sank on 2095 01:34:12,960 --> 01:34:16,320 Speaker 19: the fourteenth of April nineteen twelve, were a couple called 2096 01:34:16,520 --> 01:34:20,920 Speaker 19: Isidor Strauss and his wife Ida, and Ida was offered 2097 01:34:21,080 --> 01:34:25,200 Speaker 19: birth on a lifeboat when the ship hit the iceberg, 2098 01:34:25,800 --> 01:34:28,719 Speaker 19: but she refused, saying I would rather perish with my husband, 2099 01:34:28,800 --> 01:34:32,759 Speaker 19: and indeed both did perish that night. But Isidore Strauss, 2100 01:34:32,800 --> 01:34:35,680 Speaker 19: a husband who was a very well known businessman, a 2101 01:34:35,760 --> 01:34:39,400 Speaker 19: Bavarian born American businessman, a politician, and the co owner 2102 01:34:39,479 --> 01:34:44,160 Speaker 19: of Macy's department store in New York, also had this 2103 01:34:44,280 --> 01:34:48,600 Speaker 19: amazing and very expensive gold pocket watch. And in the aftermath, 2104 01:34:48,680 --> 01:34:53,160 Speaker 19: in the days after the awful sinking, his body was discovered, 2105 01:34:53,320 --> 01:34:56,599 Speaker 19: as was the pocket watch, and the watch had stopped 2106 01:34:56,800 --> 01:35:00,240 Speaker 19: the exact moment that the Titanic had sunk, and they 2107 01:35:00,320 --> 01:35:02,439 Speaker 19: must have lost their lives in the freezing water. 2108 01:35:03,280 --> 01:35:04,880 Speaker 3: And so yep, gone and sold. 2109 01:35:04,920 --> 01:35:08,719 Speaker 19: It's an amazing piece of memorabilia and fetching a price 2110 01:35:08,920 --> 01:35:13,040 Speaker 19: of the roughly three point eight million New Zealand dollars, 2111 01:35:13,080 --> 01:35:15,799 Speaker 19: which quite frankly is supposed to be a record breaker 2112 01:35:15,920 --> 01:35:17,320 Speaker 19: for this particular type of thing. 2113 01:35:17,360 --> 01:35:19,680 Speaker 2: That's incredible.
