1 00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:04,760 Speaker 1: Depressing the newsmakers to get the real story. It's Andrew 2 00:00:04,800 --> 00:00:08,440 Speaker 1: Dickens on hither duplic elan drive with one New Zealand 3 00:00:08,600 --> 00:00:10,120 Speaker 1: coverage like no one else. 4 00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:13,800 Speaker 2: News Talk said me good afternoons, You're welcome to the program. 5 00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:17,120 Speaker 2: Thank you for choosing us today. Commercial fishes can now 6 00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:21,720 Speaker 2: catch baby snapper, but recreational fishes can't, So what could 7 00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:23,919 Speaker 2: possibly go wrong with us that story? Just after five, 8 00:00:24,120 --> 00:00:25,680 Speaker 2: we're going to go to the Katar for the latest 9 00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:28,440 Speaker 2: on the war. What is the pollution that's killing seven 10 00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:30,880 Speaker 2: hundred auglands every year and can we do anything about it? 11 00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:31,159 Speaker 3: Now? 12 00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:33,080 Speaker 2: We got the sports huddle to get you amped for 13 00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:35,360 Speaker 2: the weekend and you can have your say on the 14 00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:38,720 Speaker 2: text ninety two to ninety two small charge applies. It's 15 00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:42,159 Speaker 2: eight after four Dickens, So welcome to the fuel crisis, 16 00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:44,720 Speaker 2: which is starting to feel a little bit like COVID junior, 17 00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:48,920 Speaker 2: with the government apparently developing targeted support for lower middle 18 00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:52,080 Speaker 2: income households facing the rising fuel prices due to the 19 00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:56,680 Speaker 2: ongoing international fuel crisis. Australia is already launching these things 20 00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:00,280 Speaker 2: now they focus on delivering aid quickly through the tax 21 00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:04,039 Speaker 2: and welfare system. Yes, ladies and gentlemen. It's another tax 22 00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:09,160 Speaker 2: credit scheme. Now, the problem with that and so many 23 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:11,679 Speaker 2: other tax credit schemes that national have come up with, 24 00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:15,280 Speaker 2: is that it's such a fath who can actually be 25 00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:17,080 Speaker 2: bothered at our busy lives to jump through all the 26 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:20,000 Speaker 2: hoops to get a few dollars back. Does anybody really 27 00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:22,280 Speaker 2: in the same age really take advantage of all those 28 00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:25,760 Speaker 2: cash back offers? Cuse it's hard work. Take family boost. 29 00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:30,160 Speaker 2: It under delivered, costs more than expected and benefited higher 30 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:33,800 Speaker 2: income families more than lower income ones, and nearly a 31 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 2: quarter of the money allocated went on admin and not 32 00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:41,559 Speaker 2: to the family. So now Nikola Willis is thinking about 33 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 2: another tax credit scheme on fuel prices. She wants the 34 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:50,680 Speaker 2: scheme to be simple, but New Zealanders want something simpler. 35 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:53,640 Speaker 2: They don't want to have to apply to get money 36 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:56,120 Speaker 2: to come back to them. They just don't want to 37 00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 2: leave the money in the pump in the first place. 38 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,760 Speaker 2: They wanted to stay in their wallet, not have to 39 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:04,880 Speaker 2: apply to get it back later. They want the price 40 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 2: at the pump to go down. But Nikola Willis will 41 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:11,280 Speaker 2: not touch the existing fuel excise tax, nor will she 42 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 2: reduce the forthcoming increase of the fuel tax which is 43 00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:17,520 Speaker 2: coming later on what is it eighteen cents a liter? 44 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 2: Nor will National suggest working from home or subsidizing public 45 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:25,079 Speaker 2: transport because they've taken such a hard line against those 46 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,560 Speaker 2: policies in the past, and of course Hipkins came out 47 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:31,360 Speaker 2: and floated there. What Nicholas Willis has been doing is 48 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 2: talking to fuel companies today and will that really be 49 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:36,920 Speaker 2: any more effective than the fireside chat she had with 50 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 2: the supermarkets or with fon terror over the price of butter? 51 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 2: And it really is starting to feel a little bit 52 00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 2: like covid iiO, isn't it, with wacky old schemes to 53 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:48,920 Speaker 2: get your money back, saying you're going to get your 54 00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:51,240 Speaker 2: money back, but you never get your money back. The 55 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 2: government flapping their gums, but nothing really happening. 56 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 4: Andrew dickens. 57 00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:03,760 Speaker 2: So it's ten minutes after four and GPS are noticing 58 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:06,959 Speaker 2: an increase in people being hit with respiratory illnesses right 59 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:11,799 Speaker 2: now and fair warning, a variety of influenza A called 60 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,680 Speaker 2: super k is on it's wait in New Zealand, likely 61 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:16,600 Speaker 2: to take off over winter. So joining me now to 62 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,640 Speaker 2: talk about this is general practice. New Zealand Chairman Dr Brian, 63 00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:21,639 Speaker 2: Betty Brian, good afternoon. 64 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 5: Good afternoon, Andrew, nice to be here. 65 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:25,520 Speaker 6: So is this new. 66 00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 4: Look? 67 00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:31,320 Speaker 5: So this variant, it's called a subclad K, so it's 68 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:34,119 Speaker 5: a variant of influenza A, something we get every year. 69 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 5: It emerged late last year and is now a dominant variant. 70 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 5: We know it's in New Zealand, but the cases haven't 71 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,480 Speaker 5: increased yet. What we think is going to happen is 72 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 5: there's going to be a takeoff as soon as winter comes, 73 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 5: so we're likely to get a very early flu season 74 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 5: that is going to go for quite a long time. 75 00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 5: So potentially a lot of people could be affected with 76 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 5: this particular flu variant, and that's a concern. 77 00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:00,280 Speaker 2: Is it different from other strains? And is it more ryan? 78 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 5: So it's more transmissible, So it's your typical influenza A variant. 79 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:10,920 Speaker 5: However that this this what we call call sub variant, 80 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:13,520 Speaker 5: is a lot more transmissible, so it can be spread 81 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:16,159 Speaker 5: a lot more easy. Now, the unusual thing here is 82 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 5: that it appeared late last year, in spring last year, 83 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 5: so we know it's in the country. So as soon 84 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:25,039 Speaker 5: as winter comes and people start to go indoors, the 85 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 5: virus starts to spread very quickly, and you can get 86 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 5: a sudden up swing in flu cases very early on 87 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 5: in the winter season. That's what could be unusual this year. 88 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 2: And that TRANSI transmissibility. That's why gps are expecting it 89 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:40,080 Speaker 2: to hit harder than other flu strains that we've had recently. 90 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:43,680 Speaker 5: That's the worry that it is going to be early, 91 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 5: it's potentially going to be prolonged, and potentially a lot 92 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 5: of people could be. 93 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 6: Affected by it. 94 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 5: So the worry with that is obviously that starts to 95 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:58,360 Speaker 5: potentially clog up hospitals, clog up GP practices. And actually 96 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:01,600 Speaker 5: we know that flu is some people, especially the oldly 97 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 5: and those with com morbidities, is potentially deadly. That's the concern. 98 00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:08,160 Speaker 2: So we probably know what to do already, but tell 99 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 2: us what should we do? 100 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 5: Yeah, Look, I mean I think this year in particular, 101 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 5: vaccination is really really important. Look, the vaccine has been 102 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:22,159 Speaker 5: designed to try and take care of this. But if 103 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 5: we know we've got reasonably low vaccination rates in New 104 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:28,040 Speaker 5: Zealand at the moment with flu, So what is really 105 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:31,599 Speaker 5: really important is those people, especially at risk, get vaccinated 106 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:34,359 Speaker 5: early rather than late. Don't hold off. You need to 107 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 5: get in there and get your vaccination because that will 108 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:40,599 Speaker 5: prevent severe disease. And that's probably the key message here. 109 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:42,840 Speaker 2: Doctor Brian Betty, I thank you General Practice New Zealand 110 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 2: chairman say it's just like COVID junior, isn't he. Brian's 111 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 2: back on the radio again. And while we're on this 112 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 2: subject of health, and New Zealand has formally rejected amendments 113 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 2: to international health regulations put forward by the World Health Organization. 114 00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:00,160 Speaker 2: We told them, who overnight on Monday makes news than 115 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,480 Speaker 2: one of just twelve nations to reject the rules. Of 116 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 2: the eleven nations that have rejected the rule changes, only four, 117 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 2: the US, Italy, Israel and Argentina did so without indicating 118 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 2: that they still accepted or intended to accept them. Later 119 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 2: on in the Peace so Health Minister Simeon Brown was 120 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:19,840 Speaker 2: asked to comment. He said, talk to Foreign Affairs Minister 121 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 2: with Sir Peter's. Then the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said, 122 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:24,039 Speaker 2: now go and talk to the Ministry of Health. So 123 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:25,920 Speaker 2: no one wants to talk about this, but they've done it. 124 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:29,600 Speaker 2: They've rejected the World Health Organization. Second time we've done this. 125 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:34,640 Speaker 2: Back then only four nations rejected them, and that was Iran, Slovakia, 126 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 2: the Netherlands and US. I remember that Winston's position at 127 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 2: the last election was that these sorts of rules from 128 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:45,279 Speaker 2: who the World Health Organization would take away independent decision 129 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 2: making from sovereign countries, which is simply a mistruth. It's 130 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 2: such a mistruth, it's almost a lie because nothing that 131 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 2: the UN or the World Health Organization suggests takes away 132 00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:01,120 Speaker 2: our sovereignty. We can choose to excite them or not. 133 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 2: We don't have to put them into practice, so they 134 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:07,920 Speaker 2: don't take away sovereignty. And my question is why would 135 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 2: we not accept device and help from the rest of 136 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:13,160 Speaker 2: the world who have mostly signed up for this. After all, 137 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 2: we're a small country and don't we need all the 138 00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:20,640 Speaker 2: help we can get. It's a quarter after four now 139 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:22,400 Speaker 2: still to come on the program. We're going to talk 140 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:24,080 Speaker 2: a bit of sport because it's a big one tonight. 141 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,640 Speaker 2: There's some cricket on though I know that Andy, my producer, says, 142 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:30,559 Speaker 2: who cares? These are two be team playing, but doesn't matter. 143 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 2: They are still representative of the country. If you got 144 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:34,880 Speaker 2: called up to a BT, Mandy, you would be so 145 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 2: tough to We'll talk about that with Jason pie In 146 00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 2: a few moments time, and of course tomorrow nights versus Warriors. 147 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 2: It's a big game.

I'm quite interested, though, Andrew, 166 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:38,440 Speaker 7: about what's happening in the boardroom if we are going 167 00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:40,440 Speaker 7: to get a decision at any time in our future 168 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 7: about the future of our domestic T twenty competition, It 169 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,400 Speaker 7: doesn't seem as though anything's forthcoming unless something's dropped in 170 00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:49,960 Speaker 7: the ad breakers. I've been waiting to talk to you, 171 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 7: So yeah, I guess we'll drag on to another week 172 00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:54,199 Speaker 7: before we find out what the future of T twenty 173 00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 7: in our country is. 174 00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:55,080 Speaker 6: Like. 175 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:57,719 Speaker 2: Just take my second question away, because that's exactly what 176 00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:00,000 Speaker 2: I was going to ask you about this domestic T twenty. 177 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,320 Speaker 2: I see the players are saying, well, let's just do it, 178 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:05,840 Speaker 2: because it was a lovely quote this morning saying when 179 00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 2: kids come along to see their players at our local 180 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:11,160 Speaker 2: grounds doing this sort of stuff, it inspires them. They 181 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:12,640 Speaker 2: seem to be wanting it, So why don't we just 182 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 2: do it. 183 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:16,479 Speaker 7: Yeah, it's a very good question, and you're right. Every 184 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:19,679 Speaker 7: player who's been spoken to, either through the Players Association 185 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 7: collectively or individually as we've seen in the past week, 186 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,760 Speaker 7: has been right in behind it. And looks I've heard 187 00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:27,400 Speaker 7: some people say, well, look, of course they were going 188 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:29,840 Speaker 7: to they'd say that they're going to get you know, 189 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:31,560 Speaker 7: they're going to benefit from it. Yes they will. But 190 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:34,640 Speaker 7: guys like Ruch and Ravendra, Daryl Mitch or lockey Ferguson 191 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,680 Speaker 7: if they went the Big Bash way, which I certainly 192 00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:40,200 Speaker 7: hope they don't, but if they did, those players would 193 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 7: earn more money from the Big Bash, probably than playing 194 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:46,440 Speaker 7: here in New Zealand. They're thinking of the wider ecosystem, yes, themselves, 195 00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 7: but also all of their domestic teammates, because if we 196 00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 7: go to the Big Bash Andrew, what happens to those players? 197 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:53,199 Speaker 7: Where do they play? 198 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:55,960 Speaker 2: Good point? Can the Warriors go through? 199 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:56,200 Speaker 4: And oh? 200 00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:56,840 Speaker 2: On Saturday? 201 00:09:57,679 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 7: I think so? 202 00:09:58,440 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 4: I think they can. 203 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:03,440 Speaker 7: They're playing your orum producer Andy's Newcastle Knights, who are 204 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:06,960 Speaker 7: also two from two, but they are without Calen Ponger 205 00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 7: and Dylan Brown, two of their most important players used. 206 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:11,800 Speaker 7: The Warriors are missing a couple as well, Chance Nicol 207 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:15,439 Speaker 7: Klukstar and Chanelle Harris Tavita both missing. But look the 208 00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:17,719 Speaker 7: way they've played against the Roosters. They put forty on them, 209 00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:19,960 Speaker 7: the Raiders, they put forty on them. Like I think 210 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:21,480 Speaker 7: they've got a bit of a wind in their sails. 211 00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:24,080 Speaker 7: I would not be at all surprised if the Warriors 212 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:27,720 Speaker 7: are three and zero in around twenty seven hours from now. 213 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:30,120 Speaker 2: Is that Cleary boy getting a bad deal? 214 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:32,000 Speaker 4: Jet Clary. 215 00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, I'd like to see him play just to 216 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 7: find out. 217 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:39,720 Speaker 2: He's awesome in the NSW Cup. You know, he's been, 218 00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:42,680 Speaker 2: He's done everything you could ever ask of him. He 219 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:44,839 Speaker 2: seems to have the right jeans. I don't know, it's 220 00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 2: something to do with his father or something. So yeah, 221 00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:50,280 Speaker 2: does he deserve a chams at this time? 222 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:52,160 Speaker 7: Well, I think it's some stage. Yeah, at some stage 223 00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 7: they've got to find out, right, they know that he's good. 224 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 6: You're right. 225 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:57,200 Speaker 7: In the New South Wales Cup, he's he's obviously, you know, 226 00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 7: as you say, got the Jen's got a great surname. Stage. 227 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 7: They're going to have to give them a crack, aren't 228 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 7: they in first grade? Obviously at the moment they quite 229 00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:06,439 Speaker 7: like the look of Luke Hanson to partner Tanner Boards. 230 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:08,440 Speaker 7: So I guess we'll have to wait just a little bit. 231 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 2: Longer, Parney. I thank you so very very much.

Targeted fuel rebates are bs because 283 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 2: my partner and I work hard, long hours, and her 284 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:26,040 Speaker 2: too jobs as well, we earn too much so get nothing, 285 00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:30,480 Speaker 2: whereas some other crew, some other bolks cruising along get 286 00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:33,199 Speaker 2: money back. Thinking about becoming a waster with my handout 287 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:36,160 Speaker 2: doesn't seem to be worth getting going hard anymore, says 288 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:39,880 Speaker 2: Adam in a funnily truncated text. But that's fair enough. 289 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:42,760 Speaker 2: Of course, the real hard workers who are in just 290 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:44,679 Speaker 2: a bit too much money can't get the money back 291 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:46,360 Speaker 2: on the fuel. And like I say, maybe we just 292 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:49,679 Speaker 2: need to drop the price at the pump. And then 293 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:51,920 Speaker 2: Tony says, man, are you getting you an editorial script 294 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:55,679 Speaker 2: directly from Chippy's office.

It is not unreasonable for those 297 00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:04,319 Speaker 2: in financial difficulty to outline their circumstances. Thank you so much, Tony. 298 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:06,760 Speaker 2: But here's the thing. As I learned from the future 299 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:09,920 Speaker 2: Boost and other tax rebate schemes, the big winners are 300 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:13,840 Speaker 2: always the admin staff, and so you're in fact funding 301 00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 2: an awful lot of bureaucrats to do an awful lot 302 00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:18,560 Speaker 2: of work. Do you like that as well? Just drop 303 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:20,720 Speaker 2: the price at the pump if you're going to do something, 304 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:24,000 Speaker 2: or suggest maybe work from home. But then again, what 305 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:26,360 Speaker 2: I liked about Nichola willis when this first came about, 306 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 2: is that she said, I'm not going to lecture people 307 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:32,760 Speaker 2: about how to cope with the fuel crisis if you 308 00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:35,560 Speaker 2: want to. And that's a good thing because you know 309 00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 2: that other crew they used to tell us exactly what 310 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 2: to do. So if you want to let your workers 311 00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:42,640 Speaker 2: work from home because they will save some money and 312 00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:45,640 Speaker 2: then not start moaning to you about pay rises and 313 00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:48,160 Speaker 2: you're happy with the productivity, do it. You don't need 314 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 2: a government to tell you how to do this sort 315 00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:54,200 Speaker 2: of thing. Wouldn't mind the public transport to be a 316 00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:57,120 Speaker 2: little bit lower though, that will be nice, But hey, 317 00:14:57,520 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 2: that's still hosing money, isn't it that we don't have? 318 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:00,720 Speaker 4: There we go? 319 00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 2: Hey, so still to come damn Machison out of the UK. 320 00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 2: There's a one hundred year old bloke who's a war veteran, 321 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:10,000 Speaker 2: who is a organ doner.

He's the madman who's 335 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:08,560 Speaker 2: swimming from North and North the way down to Wellington 336 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:13,520 Speaker 2: to raise awareness of a trawling at the bottom of 337 00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:15,640 Speaker 2: the sea. We're going to be talking about commercial fishing 338 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:18,280 Speaker 2: versus recreational fishing just after the five o'clock news. So 339 00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:20,960 Speaker 2: where is John O? And John O currently today is 340 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:24,680 Speaker 2: having a rest day. He is offshore from the Mahea Peninsula. 341 00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:26,840 Speaker 2: So why he's taking a rest day to watch rocket 342 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:30,880 Speaker 2: Lab do their thing. So he has done. What's he 343 00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:35,360 Speaker 2: up to now? Nine hundred and twenty five kilometers which 344 00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:38,280 Speaker 2: is amazing. He's having to do sixteen hundred to get 345 00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:41,480 Speaker 2: into Wellington. Of course, the problem with Wellington is he's 346 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:43,880 Speaker 2: going to have to swim through a sea of sewage, 347 00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 2: and I wonder whether he's going to be allowed to 348 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:48,360 Speaker 2: do it or whether he's going to do it. But 349 00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 2: wouldn't that hack you off? Where you swum one thousand 350 00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:52,840 Speaker 2: miles and then you get down there, you swim into 351 00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:55,080 Speaker 2: Wellington and before you know it, you've got gastro that 352 00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:59,200 Speaker 2: would actually rip you unity, would it not. Meanwhile, by 353 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 2: the way, apparently there was a damn great big air 354 00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:05,159 Speaker 2: bubble in the pipe combined with all the wet wipes 355 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:08,080 Speaker 2: that Wellington's liked to Wellingtonian's like to flash away, which 356 00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:11,240 Speaker 2: caused the failure of moer point. It is twenty three 357 00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:11,600 Speaker 2: to five. 358 00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:16,560 Speaker 4: It's the world wires on news talks. They'd be drive right. 359 00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:20,879 Speaker 2: I'm trying to go to a Russian State TV crew 360 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:24,440 Speaker 2: who have been injured during an on air report in Lebanon. 361 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:27,040 Speaker 2: That's right, they were on air and then the reporter 362 00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:29,240 Speaker 2: had to duck for cover during his cross as the 363 00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:32,159 Speaker 2: strike happened. Just meet his behind him and this is 364 00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:33,040 Speaker 2: what it sounded like. 365 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:35,520 Speaker 4: Oh Rahab site near eyrash Sharp. 366 00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:50,160 Speaker 12: Further rocket attacks were reported against Naharia on a minute. 367 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:54,040 Speaker 2: Wow, okay, he lived and did you hear that? It 368 00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:57,160 Speaker 2: freaked the microphone out? They blew their levels there sound 369 00:17:57,160 --> 00:18:00,239 Speaker 2: guy will be very upset.

And finally to Japan, 392 00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:08,919 Speaker 2: where Donald Trump said this to the Japanese Prime Minister. 393 00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:10,920 Speaker 4: Because we wanted surprise. 394 00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:15,320 Speaker 15: Who knows better about surprise than Japan? Okay, why didn't 395 00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:16,959 Speaker 15: you tell me about Pearl Harbor? 396 00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:17,879 Speaker 4: Okay? 397 00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:21,800 Speaker 2: Yes, for real, to his face, the Japanese Prime Minister, 398 00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:24,399 Speaker 2: Donald Trump. And actually, you know, that moment of actually 399 00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:25,919 Speaker 2: saying that sort of thing kind of reminds me of 400 00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:27,760 Speaker 2: a great comedy skit from Faulty Towers. 401 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 16: Listen, don't mention the war. I mentioned it once, but 402 00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:32,440 Speaker 16: I think I got away with it, all right. Will 403 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:35,160 Speaker 16: you just stop talking about the law me you started it. 404 00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:39,000 Speaker 16: We did not start it as you did. You invaded Poland. 405 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:46,119 Speaker 2: Classic twenty one to five International correspondence with ends and 406 00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:50,880 Speaker 2: eye insurance, Peace of mind for New Zealand business. Damn 407 00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:54,800 Speaker 2: Machison joins me out of the States, Dan, Hello, Hello Andrew. 408 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:58,679 Speaker 2: President Donald Trump told off Benjamin Netanyahu and told him 409 00:19:58,720 --> 00:19:59,679 Speaker 2: to stop doing stuff. 410 00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:02,439 Speaker 8: Well, yeah, I don't know if he told him off 411 00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:05,879 Speaker 8: or if it was more of a very nice request. 412 00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:09,560 Speaker 8: He's said, and Yahoo said that President Trump asked him 413 00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:14,400 Speaker 8: to stop the attacks on an Iranian gas facility. This 414 00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:18,360 Speaker 8: is sort of retaliatory that has been going back and forth, 415 00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:20,360 Speaker 8: and of course, as you know, has sent oil prices 416 00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:22,359 Speaker 8: soaring this week here in the US. 417 00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:23,960 Speaker 4: And while he's. 418 00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:27,160 Speaker 8: Doing that, Trump is also asking for about two hundred 419 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:29,720 Speaker 8: billion dollars in new funding, calling it a small price 420 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:34,400 Speaker 8: to paid to equip the military. As the war or conflict, 421 00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:37,000 Speaker 8: depending on how you look at it continues. 422 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:39,960 Speaker 2: All right, how's the war going? 423 00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 8: Briefly, Well, I don't know if it's made much progress, 424 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:47,719 Speaker 8: to tell you the truth, in the last week. If 425 00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:50,080 Speaker 8: you if you listen to Donald Trump, can you listen 426 00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:53,520 Speaker 8: to his cabinet, you'll hear him say that they've basically 427 00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:56,960 Speaker 8: destroyed everything and anything over there. We had one of 428 00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:58,879 Speaker 8: our aircraft hit in f thirty five that made an 429 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 8: emergency landing at a US Air Force base in the 430 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:04,159 Speaker 8: Middle East after it was struck by what's believed to 431 00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:07,680 Speaker 8: be Iranian fire. That's what CNN is reporting. But Trump 432 00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:11,040 Speaker 8: has said that he thinks that this is all but over, 433 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:13,879 Speaker 8: and that he continues to reiterate that there will not 434 00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:15,760 Speaker 8: be boots on the ground, that he will not have 435 00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:19,760 Speaker 8: to put any US soldiers on the ground over there. 436 00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:22,440 Speaker 2: Well, news to you. The New Zealand Prime Minister last 437 00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:24,840 Speaker 2: night said that apparently this conflict has at least eight 438 00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:27,520 Speaker 2: to twelve weeks to go, which seems to be more 439 00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:30,480 Speaker 2: than the US administration knows. But I guess Christopher Lexon 440 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:32,720 Speaker 2: is tied into great knowledge. But there we go. Now, 441 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 2: here's two words for you, Epstein files. 442 00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:39,400 Speaker 8: Boy, I'll tell you it seems like Andrew, there's everything 443 00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 8: over here in DC that's connected to this. And right 444 00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:43,600 Speaker 8: now we've got a guy by the name of Kevin 445 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:46,119 Speaker 8: Walsh who is going to become, or at least President 446 00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:48,320 Speaker 8: Trump hopes will become the next Federal Reserve chair. A 447 00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:51,040 Speaker 8: lot of power right there. Our current chair is going 448 00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:54,320 Speaker 8: to be stepping down in a couple of month, Jerome Powell, 449 00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:56,119 Speaker 8: who President Trump has been trying to get rid of 450 00:21:56,160 --> 00:22:00,879 Speaker 8: for some time. There's no Senate confirmation date hearing yet, 451 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:03,520 Speaker 8: and there's several factors that are playing into this part 452 00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:08,560 Speaker 8: of that. Now, maybe Jeffrey Epstein, there are emails that 453 00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:11,280 Speaker 8: were sent from an account associated with Epstein that were 454 00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:13,640 Speaker 8: released by the Department of Justice over here, and it's 455 00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 8: suggesting that Warsh and his wife were invited to events 456 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:19,840 Speaker 8: that Epstein helped organize. And I think what we're finding 457 00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:22,439 Speaker 8: out about these thousands and thousands and thousands of emails 458 00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:25,000 Speaker 8: andrew that have been released is that everybody seems to 459 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:27,720 Speaker 8: have had a connection in some way. Now, whether or 460 00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:29,840 Speaker 8: not they were friends, whether or not they were colleagues, 461 00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:32,480 Speaker 8: maybe they were just ships in the night passing and 462 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:35,960 Speaker 8: happened to have their photo taken. But it's all coming 463 00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:38,520 Speaker 8: back to this man. And yet it doesn't seem like 464 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:40,760 Speaker 8: we're making a lot of progress on this. It just 465 00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:42,800 Speaker 8: seems to be one of those things that are being 466 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:45,199 Speaker 8: held up again and again and which Trump has been 467 00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:47,119 Speaker 8: trying to brush under the rug. 468 00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:51,080 Speaker 2: Okay, and now to this quite a remarkable story. A 469 00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:54,480 Speaker 2: one hundred year old war veteran has become the world's 470 00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:57,840 Speaker 2: oldest organ dona. So what's his name and what did 471 00:22:57,880 --> 00:22:58,200 Speaker 2: he give? 472 00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:02,480 Speaker 8: Well, he's Dale Steele and he was one hundred. He 473 00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:04,679 Speaker 8: became the oldest organ donor here in the US. He 474 00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 8: found World War two. When he died His liver was 475 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:13,680 Speaker 8: recovered at Nebraska Medicine and successfully transplanted the following day. Now, 476 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:16,280 Speaker 8: I didn't know this until I heard about this, But 477 00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:19,600 Speaker 8: your liver is about three years old. My liver is 478 00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:21,480 Speaker 8: about three years old, and that one hundred year old 479 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:24,680 Speaker 8: donor his liver was about three years old. The doctor said. 480 00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:28,560 Speaker 8: So cases like this are extraordinary. We don't hear about 481 00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:31,280 Speaker 8: it very often. But age alone is what we're finding out, 482 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 8: doesn't determine a donor eligibility, which is why there's always 483 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:36,720 Speaker 8: such a big push here. When you get your driver's 484 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:38,360 Speaker 8: license or you knew it, they want to know are 485 00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 8: you a donor? Will you please be a donor? And 486 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:42,560 Speaker 8: they put a little mark on your driver's license. 487 00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:46,200 Speaker 2: But there's always the question about whether you can survive 488 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:48,800 Speaker 2: the operation, whether you can survive the procedure, whether you're 489 00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:50,880 Speaker 2: fit enough. So this one hundred year old had got 490 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:52,679 Speaker 2: to be pretty fit to go through an operation to 491 00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:54,480 Speaker 2: give the bit of his liver that he gave. 492 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:58,160 Speaker 8: Well, he had passed away. He had just passed away, 493 00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:00,080 Speaker 8: and that's why they were able to do the the 494 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 8: transplant the very next day. Yeah, okay, yeah, so but 495 00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:07,399 Speaker 8: that's that's another one of those things where it's like, Okay, 496 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:09,439 Speaker 8: don't don't count out on age right now. If you 497 00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:12,120 Speaker 8: have the opportunity to be a donor, go for it. 498 00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:14,200 Speaker 2: No one wants my liver, a mate, I can tell 499 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:14,840 Speaker 2: you that for sure. 500 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:17,199 Speaker 8: I'll take your words for that. 501 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:18,240 Speaker 11: I'll take your word for that. 502 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:20,400 Speaker 2: Damn Mitchison. I think you for your time, Dan Mitchison 503 00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 2: out of the United States of America. A number of 504 00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:25,720 Speaker 2: texts through informing me that the Japanese leader is female, 505 00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:28,000 Speaker 2: which I'm perfectly aware of. I like the text that 506 00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:31,240 Speaker 2: says her face because apparently I said his face. I 507 00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:33,720 Speaker 2: didn't even know I said it. And my text says, 508 00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:36,679 Speaker 2: you're too excited, Andrew, and well, I am. Rather I 509 00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:38,320 Speaker 2: haven't done the Drive show for a long time, so 510 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:43,040 Speaker 2: I'm sorry. He he she, I'm so sorry. Meanwhile, all 511 00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 2: these gender issues. Meanwhile, Jeremy writes, surely Heather hasn't gone 512 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 2: to Mark Mitchell's wedding. I have no idea, but I 513 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:53,480 Speaker 2: do know that it's happening in the Coromandel. I think 514 00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:56,600 Speaker 2: up round ha hey now quite too new, which is 515 00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:58,280 Speaker 2: just out of fity young. I know that, and I 516 00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:00,719 Speaker 2: do know that that burying head they have a holiday 517 00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:06,439 Speaker 2: place that is down by or south on the Coromandel Peninsua. 518 00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:09,320 Speaker 2: So I don't know, maybe that's what's happened. All I 519 00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:12,919 Speaker 2: know is that Heather is back on Monday and Barry 520 00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:16,399 Speaker 2: is not here today, which means that Thomas coglan is 521 00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:18,920 Speaker 2: going to talk to us about politics. And there's appears 522 00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:21,239 Speaker 2: to be only one topic in politics right now, and 523 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:23,960 Speaker 2: that might be the fuel crisis that's next on news 524 00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:25,600 Speaker 2: talks here, But it's a quarter to five. 525 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:30,200 Speaker 1: Politics with centrics credit, check your customers and get payments, certaindy. 526 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:33,720 Speaker 2: Twelve to five. Thomas Coughlin is filling in for Barry 527 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:36,160 Speaker 2: Soper and is obviously not invited to Mark. But she's 528 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:37,200 Speaker 2: wedding Heather Tom. 529 00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:39,000 Speaker 17: No, I'm not. 530 00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:42,639 Speaker 18: I'm offended. I'm going to give them a terrible coverage. 531 00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:44,760 Speaker 2: Oh no, I don't say that. You don't be a 532 00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:46,359 Speaker 2: biased media person. 533 00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:46,760 Speaker 15: There we go. 534 00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:50,119 Speaker 2: Now, look what one story. One story is dominating the 535 00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:53,560 Speaker 2: Iran crisis, and Nicola Willis has been defending the government's approach. 536 00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:55,800 Speaker 2: I know, I've actually got stuck into the possible idea 537 00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:59,200 Speaker 2: of a tax credit rebate on fuel prices, simply because 538 00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:02,120 Speaker 2: the thing a been that it's the most is bureaucrats 539 00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:03,720 Speaker 2: because most of the money goes in admin. 540 00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:09,280 Speaker 18: Yeah, I suppose. So there are a couple of things 541 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:11,800 Speaker 18: you could do, so you can just you could just 542 00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:16,280 Speaker 18: wipe the fuel excise or cut the fuel excise. Fuel 543 00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:18,920 Speaker 18: excise is a large portion of you when you fill 544 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:21,879 Speaker 18: up at the pump and you cut it by twenty 545 00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:25,439 Speaker 18: five cents, for instance, and that is pretty immediate relief. 546 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 18: You saw that when Labor did that last time round. 547 00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:33,000 Speaker 18: The petrol stations were pretty cognizant and the fact that 548 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:34,840 Speaker 18: the government was watching them when they passed that on. 549 00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:39,159 Speaker 18: The problem is it's bloody expensive. It costs you know, 550 00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:42,240 Speaker 18: a billion dollars for the year, I think, and that 551 00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:43,919 Speaker 18: is just not money that the government has at this 552 00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:45,879 Speaker 18: point in time. They're looking at something which is a 553 00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:50,439 Speaker 18: litet bit more targeted. And I think the bureaucredit issue 554 00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:53,119 Speaker 18: is an interesting one because you don't the cost of 555 00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:55,919 Speaker 18: living payment, which is the thing that Labor invented and 556 00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:58,080 Speaker 18: the budget in twenty twenty two that did actually need 557 00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:02,200 Speaker 18: a bit of bureaucratic kind of brain behind it because 558 00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:04,680 Speaker 18: it was designed from scratch. What the government appears to 559 00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:07,720 Speaker 18: be looking at is using working for Families tax credits 560 00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:11,320 Speaker 18: and then another tax credit called the Independent Earner Tax Credit. Basically, 561 00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:13,399 Speaker 18: if you're in less than seventy thousand dollars, you're probably 562 00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:15,360 Speaker 18: going to be in line for one of these two credits, 563 00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:17,159 Speaker 18: and it would just adjust the amount of money that 564 00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:19,280 Speaker 18: you get from them. So it's a matter of a 565 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:21,399 Speaker 18: few public servants changing a couple of numbers on the 566 00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:24,680 Speaker 18: spreadsheet up. It's an oversimplification, but you know it's basically 567 00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:25,000 Speaker 18: like that. 568 00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:25,719 Speaker 13: So it does. 569 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:28,439 Speaker 18: It does mean there's less of that bureaucratic wrangling, but 570 00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:31,080 Speaker 18: it does quite easily deliver a lot of money to 571 00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:33,840 Speaker 18: people's bank accounts because it just goes through the ID system. 572 00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:36,359 Speaker 18: They've got your ID number, they've got your bank number, 573 00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:38,000 Speaker 18: and they can give you some money pretty quickly. 574 00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:41,399 Speaker 2: Well, well, well explained, But you're still going to have 575 00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 2: to apply for it, and will people have enough time 576 00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:45,520 Speaker 2: and motivation to apply for it? 577 00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:48,720 Speaker 18: Well, actually, you don't have to apply for it. That's 578 00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:49,000 Speaker 18: I think. 579 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:51,639 Speaker 2: Why now they how they know what you're getting, how 580 00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:54,080 Speaker 2: much you've spent on the field or is it just 581 00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:55,359 Speaker 2: an automatic one off payment. 582 00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:59,000 Speaker 18: No, it's a so working for families is based on 583 00:27:59,040 --> 00:27:59,880 Speaker 18: your income counts. 584 00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:00,520 Speaker 13: It doesn't. 585 00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:04,040 Speaker 18: It doesn't. It isn't related to to how much you 586 00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:07,680 Speaker 18: spend on fuel. It is a It is a calculation 587 00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:09,679 Speaker 18: that's based on your income. And obviously you have your 588 00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:13,160 Speaker 18: io D number and and through that, through your ID number, 589 00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 18: i D knows knows how much you earned and whether 590 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:16,360 Speaker 18: you qualified. 591 00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:18,439 Speaker 2: So it's not really a fuel tax rebake. And remember 592 00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:20,680 Speaker 2: this is just a proposal so far. I mean, I 593 00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:25,960 Speaker 2: think it's more just a cost of living give out 594 00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:28,919 Speaker 2: to people earning under seventy grand. 595 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:33,440 Speaker 18: There is there hasn't gone a cabinet yet, so we 596 00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:35,600 Speaker 18: don't really know what they're looking at. They're not looking 597 00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:38,360 Speaker 18: at a fuel I think they're not looking at a 598 00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:40,360 Speaker 18: fuel rebase. I think the it's the thing to be 599 00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:43,160 Speaker 18: very clear on that what they're looking at is not 600 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:46,240 Speaker 18: related to you spend a certain amount of money on 601 00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:48,080 Speaker 18: fuel and therefore you get this amount of money back. 602 00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:50,160 Speaker 18: That is what they're not looking at. 603 00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:52,240 Speaker 2: Okay, what else are they thinking about? 604 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:56,680 Speaker 18: Well, that's the main thing at the moment. New Zealand 605 00:28:56,720 --> 00:28:59,040 Speaker 18: First has its partly conference at the weekend, so we'll 606 00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 18: hear a wee bit from there about what they think. 607 00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:04,160 Speaker 18: New Zealand First, it seems is actually more keen on 608 00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 18: a sort of fuel fuel related. 609 00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:11,600 Speaker 17: Remedy. 610 00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:14,120 Speaker 18: I guess so that that they I think saw what 611 00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:15,960 Speaker 18: Labour did in twenty twenty two when they cut that 612 00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:17,840 Speaker 18: twenty five cents off off the cost of a leader 613 00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:20,040 Speaker 18: of fuel. I think they're more inclined to do something 614 00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:23,960 Speaker 18: like that. National Act a wee bit tighter on the 615 00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:28,239 Speaker 18: money side of things. Well, it's to be less keen 616 00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:28,480 Speaker 18: on that. 617 00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:30,720 Speaker 2: It's not that they're tight on the money side. It's 618 00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:32,800 Speaker 2: just that we actually have a huge debt and all 619 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:35,120 Speaker 2: the government revenue is needed just to keep the services 620 00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:36,800 Speaker 2: going but also to pay off the debts, so they 621 00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:38,400 Speaker 2: don't want to give themselves a pay cut. 622 00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:43,600 Speaker 18: Yes, that is that is exactly the calculation in New 623 00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:48,480 Speaker 18: Zealand First Care. Wow, this was necessarily pejorative. I guess 624 00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 18: New Zealand First is a slightly slightly less inclined to 625 00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:56,960 Speaker 18: to weight the issue of the deficit and reducing the 626 00:29:57,360 --> 00:30:01,360 Speaker 18: debt ratio than in their kind of in the hierarchy 627 00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:05,280 Speaker 18: of priorities. Then Act and National would be. 628 00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:08,640 Speaker 2: Very good stuff. Tom Coglan, enjoy your weekend and Tom 629 00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:10,400 Speaker 2: will be back with us later in the program and 630 00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:12,920 Speaker 2: we'll review the entire week, which includes, of course the 631 00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:15,560 Speaker 2: Hipkins thing, and I may in fact have something to 632 00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:18,480 Speaker 2: say about that in a moment. A few text through 633 00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:22,360 Speaker 2: Trump saying to the Japanese Prime Minister and referencing pil 634 00:30:22,360 --> 00:30:24,760 Speaker 2: Harbor is an absolute disgrace. Thank you die. And that 635 00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:26,520 Speaker 2: was the important point to take out of that, not 636 00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:29,320 Speaker 2: that I might have got a the she and the 637 00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:32,760 Speaker 2: he might have come out a little bit wrong. Liz 638 00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:35,080 Speaker 2: is Andrew, listen more carefully. We have not got a 639 00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:39,280 Speaker 2: fuel crisis yet. Reporters like you do nothing but cause problems. 640 00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:43,640 Speaker 2: Get your facts right. Well, there's going at the pump 641 00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:46,560 Speaker 2: and see if that feels like a crisis or not 642 00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:50,520 Speaker 2: to you. And another text says fuel so the squeeze 643 00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:54,440 Speaker 2: midd'll get nothing in fund poorer folk. Yet again, even 644 00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:57,240 Speaker 2: than that's failing on this one cut the excise tax, 645 00:30:57,240 --> 00:31:01,360 Speaker 2: says my Texter GST increases with these increases, so the 646 00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:04,120 Speaker 2: grubs are already getting more money. We do you stay 647 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:07,800 Speaker 2: ninety two ninety two small charge applies at seven to five. Hey, 648 00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:10,360 Speaker 2: So I'm Andrew Dickinson for Heather drops Alan and care 649 00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:12,080 Speaker 2: I say it was just a good week to not 650 00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 2: be on the radio, which I wasn't. During the Chippy 651 00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:19,240 Speaker 2: Jade Paul saga, our hosts talked about it without detailing 652 00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:21,520 Speaker 2: the allegations or discussing the rights and wrongs of them. 653 00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:23,840 Speaker 2: But all week long there was this enormous pressure coming 654 00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:26,640 Speaker 2: from the text machine and the audience you asking for 655 00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:30,040 Speaker 2: their opinion, some alleging that the so called legacy media 656 00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:33,000 Speaker 2: was whitewashing the issue. But the thing about legacy media 657 00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:35,280 Speaker 2: is that we have some rules, unlike the wild West 658 00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:38,640 Speaker 2: of the Internet. So Mike and Carey wouldn't bite, and 659 00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:41,560 Speaker 2: it was entertaining to hear them refusing to bite and 660 00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:45,240 Speaker 2: Frank ignore. Would I You know the allegations exist because 661 00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:48,200 Speaker 2: we reported that they exist, but not their details. You 662 00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:51,760 Speaker 2: don't need us to tell you how to think. It's 663 00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:54,440 Speaker 2: important to note that Chris Hipkins quickly said he'd taken 664 00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 2: legal device not on what his ex wife posted, but 665 00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:00,120 Speaker 2: on what people what he could do to people who 666 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:03,960 Speaker 2: repeat the allegations. This is libel. And as Mike said, 667 00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:06,000 Speaker 2: all week long, what do you want me to do? 668 00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:09,680 Speaker 2: Go break the laws of the land and libel the guy. Now, 669 00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:11,760 Speaker 2: if you want, you can find the allegations on the 670 00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:14,080 Speaker 2: internet in a blink and then you can form your 671 00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:16,960 Speaker 2: own opinions on the quality of the man and then 672 00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:20,520 Speaker 2: make yourself heard at the ballot box. You're a grown up. 673 00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:23,240 Speaker 2: You don't need us to tell you what to do 674 00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:25,680 Speaker 2: or what to think, and you don't need to figure 675 00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:28,280 Speaker 2: out you don't need your bias confirmed by us. But 676 00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:30,720 Speaker 2: there we go. Do it at the box. Do it 677 00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:35,680 Speaker 2: at the ballot box, all right. Fishing pandy baby snappers 678 00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:38,560 Speaker 2: can be fished now by commercial fisher people. We'll talk 679 00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:41,520 Speaker 2: about this right after the news, which is nixt on Newstalk. 680 00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:47,400 Speaker 1: V, the only drive show you can try it to 681 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:50,800 Speaker 1: ask the questions, get the answers, find the facts and 682 00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:54,640 Speaker 1: give the analysis. Andrew Dickens on' here the duplicy allan 683 00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:58,160 Speaker 1: drive with one New Zealand and the power of satellite 684 00:32:58,200 --> 00:32:59,320 Speaker 1: mobile news talks. 685 00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:02,160 Speaker 2: Hiv eron and welcome to the program. We're off to 686 00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:06,360 Speaker 2: Quitar shortly, but first, baby snapper could soon be caught 687 00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:10,720 Speaker 2: legally by commercial fishes. A fisheries amendment bill proposes removing 688 00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:15,320 Speaker 2: size limits for popular species, including snapper, tarakhi, blue moki, 689 00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:19,840 Speaker 2: and travalley but there'll still be size limits for recreational anglers. 690 00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:22,880 Speaker 2: They can't catch them New Zealand Sport Fishing Council's Mike 691 00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:24,920 Speaker 2: Plant is with me now to talk about this. Kiday, 692 00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:28,800 Speaker 2: How are you, Mike Evening? Andrew Hey, So, what's your members' 693 00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:29,480 Speaker 2: problems with this? 694 00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:33,080 Speaker 13: Look, We've just come out of a pretty productive meeting 695 00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:36,520 Speaker 13: with Jenny Marcroft, Cameron Luxton from ACT and Grant McCollum 696 00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:40,560 Speaker 13: about this issue. We've been taken by surprise a bit 697 00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:43,080 Speaker 13: by the intent of the bill and little things like 698 00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:46,920 Speaker 13: this all adding up to well, I guess the feeling 699 00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:50,640 Speaker 13: that we're no longer a public stakeholder in a publicly owned, 700 00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:54,480 Speaker 13: finite resource fishery. It's really hurting us. And yeah, we 701 00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:56,800 Speaker 13: can go into the detail on both sizes, but it's 702 00:33:56,840 --> 00:34:00,000 Speaker 13: part of a bigger picture of these fisheries amendment bills. 703 00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:01,760 Speaker 2: Do you think it would strip the stocks? 704 00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:05,480 Speaker 13: Well, yeah, if you're taking fish before they have a 705 00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:10,120 Speaker 13: chance to breed. If anyone who failed science can still 706 00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:11,000 Speaker 13: understand that. 707 00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:15,399 Speaker 2: Would the baby fish court be bycatch the same way 708 00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:17,960 Speaker 2: there was the changes to the rules that allowed them 709 00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:20,759 Speaker 2: to sell swordfish. 710 00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:23,760 Speaker 13: Yeah, that's a way around it to say it's bycatch 711 00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:25,480 Speaker 13: and it would go to waste and things like that. 712 00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:28,919 Speaker 13: But ultimately you're still not addressing the court issue, which 713 00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:32,200 Speaker 13: is how are they catching these undersized fish they're trawling. 714 00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:36,440 Speaker 13: That method is redundant and it's affecting our fishery. For 715 00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:40,040 Speaker 13: recreational fishes like ourselves, if a Kiwi wants to catch 716 00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:43,600 Speaker 13: some snapper and they're catching baby snapper, they increase their 717 00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:46,719 Speaker 13: hook size to catch larger snapper, so baby snapper's mouths 718 00:34:46,719 --> 00:34:49,000 Speaker 13: aren't big enough to take the hook in its mouth. 719 00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:51,319 Speaker 13: That is a change to the fishing method that we 720 00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:55,600 Speaker 13: all do to catch legal snapper. And for some reason, again, 721 00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:59,200 Speaker 13: commercial fishes don't have to follow those kind of behaviors 722 00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:02,120 Speaker 13: of innovation or changing to protect the fishery. 723 00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:05,239 Speaker 2: Now, Shane Jones, we actually asked him to appear on 724 00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:08,840 Speaker 2: the program. He declined. But if Shane Jones was here, 725 00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:11,080 Speaker 2: what would you say to him. 726 00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:13,279 Speaker 13: Yeah, well, Shane Jones was meant to be at the 727 00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:15,440 Speaker 13: meeting we just had and he couldn't make it. The 728 00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:18,440 Speaker 13: excuse was he was working on the fuel crisis. And 729 00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:21,360 Speaker 13: if we are to talk about the fuel crisis, turning 730 00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:24,000 Speaker 13: diesel into protein as one of the core businesses of 731 00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:28,160 Speaker 13: these trawlers, and as fuel increases, trawling is very heavy 732 00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:31,880 Speaker 13: on fuel, so you know that whole behavior and system 733 00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:34,840 Speaker 13: is at risk fundamentally. If he wants to make some 734 00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:37,919 Speaker 13: real changes, he can consult the New Zealand public which 735 00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:40,759 Speaker 13: we haven't been consulted properly on and listen to us 736 00:35:40,840 --> 00:35:44,160 Speaker 13: and look after this publicly owned shared resource. 737 00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:46,640 Speaker 2: My plan from the New Zealand Sports Fishing Council. I 738 00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:48,279 Speaker 2: thank you for your timing. Look, I get that Shane 739 00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:51,480 Speaker 2: Jones is trying to protect jobs for his people, but 740 00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:53,840 Speaker 2: the ee he represents also like to put out a 741 00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:57,319 Speaker 2: boat with some recreational fishes and bring back some kimawana 742 00:35:57,360 --> 00:36:00,400 Speaker 2: for their hapoo. And these people are also unting him 743 00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:03,319 Speaker 2: a mandate, not just the commercial official people. And it'd 744 00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:05,040 Speaker 2: be nice to talk to your Shane. It is ten 745 00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:08,960 Speaker 2: after five, all right. The war on Iran is threatening 746 00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:11,359 Speaker 2: to spread wider. Saudi Arabia is warning that it could 747 00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:14,319 Speaker 2: strike back after Iranian attacks on oil and gas sites 748 00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:17,040 Speaker 2: across the Gulf caused price surges around the globe, and 749 00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:19,919 Speaker 2: one of the strikes was on the world's largest liquefied 750 00:36:20,160 --> 00:36:24,240 Speaker 2: natural gas plants in Qatar. Well Doha based New Zealand 751 00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:31,320 Speaker 2: journalist Courtney Hammond is in Qatar and he and joins us. Now, Hello, Courtney, Cure, Andrew, 752 00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:33,680 Speaker 2: how are you very good? How bad was that attack? 753 00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:39,160 Speaker 10: Yeah, the attack was devastating for Cutter, and it marks 754 00:36:39,200 --> 00:36:43,200 Speaker 10: a huge escalation in this war. It came in response 755 00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:46,440 Speaker 10: to an Israeli attack on Iran's South Pars gas field. 756 00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:50,480 Speaker 10: Iran has retaliated by targeting energy facilities across the Gulf, 757 00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:54,600 Speaker 10: in Saudi Arabia, in the United Arab Emirates, and in Cutter. 758 00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:58,680 Speaker 10: The attacks on cut in particular, they've seriously damaged the 759 00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:03,120 Speaker 10: rattlerfan Gas which is the world's largest allergy refinery. It 760 00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:07,040 Speaker 10: produces about twenty percent of the world's allergy exports, which 761 00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:10,840 Speaker 10: are mostly headed to Europe and Asia. Seventeen percent of 762 00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:13,560 Speaker 10: Cutter's export capacity has now been wiped out and they 763 00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:15,960 Speaker 10: say it could take up to five years to repair. 764 00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:18,960 Speaker 10: So this is a huge blow for Cutter and they're 765 00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:20,719 Speaker 10: taking it very seriously. 766 00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:22,080 Speaker 2: And the Saudi's want to do some revenge on all 767 00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:25,920 Speaker 2: of this. Are those threats are potentially dangerous escalation of 768 00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:26,399 Speaker 2: this war. 769 00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:32,120 Speaker 10: Well, the attacks have prompted strong responses because, after all, 770 00:37:32,239 --> 00:37:35,799 Speaker 10: these facilities are at the heart of these Gulf countries economies, 771 00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:39,120 Speaker 10: right so Saudi Arabia's foreign minister has warned that his 772 00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:42,680 Speaker 10: country's tolerance for attacks on its energy infrastructure is limited. 773 00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 10: They've said that Saudi Arabia reserves the right to take 774 00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:49,719 Speaker 10: military actions of deems necessary. He hasn't seen when that 775 00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:52,960 Speaker 10: would happen, but he's said that Saudi and its neighbors, 776 00:37:53,120 --> 00:37:56,960 Speaker 10: you know, they have significant capabilities should they need to 777 00:37:57,080 --> 00:38:00,000 Speaker 10: use them. Cutter has also responded. They've called this attack 778 00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:04,239 Speaker 10: violation on its sovereignty and the vast Iranian military and 779 00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:08,200 Speaker 10: security personnel to leave Cutter, which is a clear sign 780 00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:12,840 Speaker 10: that relations are deteriorating very quickly, and the Golf countries 781 00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:16,400 Speaker 10: are angry and frustrated. But yesterday the Cuttery Prime Minister 782 00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:20,160 Speaker 10: called for de escalation and said that diplomacy is still 783 00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:22,960 Speaker 10: the solution. So hope is not lost yet. 784 00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:25,719 Speaker 2: But Iran is hitting a number countries that you would 785 00:38:25,760 --> 00:38:28,640 Speaker 2: normally think they would think were friends. So is that 786 00:38:28,760 --> 00:38:29,800 Speaker 2: surprising the region. 787 00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:35,200 Speaker 10: It shouldn't come as a surprise really, because Iran has 788 00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:38,040 Speaker 10: made it very clear from the beginning that it would 789 00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:41,480 Speaker 10: respond to Israeli and US aggression by hitting the countries 790 00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:45,919 Speaker 10: that host US military bases, and that includes Cutter, which 791 00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:48,680 Speaker 10: hosts the United States largest air base in the region. 792 00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:52,920 Speaker 10: But what makes this escalation significant is that Iran's attacks 793 00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:57,240 Speaker 10: on Cutter and the other Golf countries now have definitively 794 00:38:57,520 --> 00:39:03,399 Speaker 10: expanded beyond the American bases and military infrastructure to economic infrastructure. 795 00:39:03,960 --> 00:39:06,600 Speaker 10: And the damage that's caused by these attacks will affect 796 00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:09,719 Speaker 10: energy supply in the long term, and it will undoubtedly 797 00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:10,880 Speaker 10: be sout globally. 798 00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:13,279 Speaker 2: Now, the big question around the world is how long 799 00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:16,040 Speaker 2: is this going to go on for? I know our 800 00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:19,040 Speaker 2: own Prime Minister yesterday said don't expect it anytime soon. 801 00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:21,000 Speaker 2: He said eight to twelve weeks. How he's knew that, 802 00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:23,400 Speaker 2: I don't know. But what is the sense that you 803 00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:27,359 Speaker 2: have from your contacts about how long this war is 804 00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:28,319 Speaker 2: going to continue for? 805 00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:32,920 Speaker 10: Well, it is the big old question, isn't it? Because 806 00:39:32,960 --> 00:39:36,000 Speaker 10: there just doesn't seem to be a clear exit plan 807 00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:39,239 Speaker 10: for the US or Israel, and Iran doesn't seem to 808 00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:42,960 Speaker 10: be all that interested in negotiations either. The United States 809 00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:45,520 Speaker 10: objective for the war is still pretty unclear, and they've 810 00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:48,680 Speaker 10: given really mixed timelines on how long this could continue 811 00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:52,400 Speaker 10: for The US Department of Defense is actually now asking 812 00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:55,719 Speaker 10: Congress for two hundred billion dollars to fund the war, 813 00:39:56,160 --> 00:39:59,920 Speaker 10: and the Defense Secretary Pete Heagsith has gone from suggesting 814 00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:02,800 Speaker 10: that the war could last just four to six weeks 815 00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:06,080 Speaker 10: to say now that there's no definitive timeline. So it's 816 00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:08,920 Speaker 10: all very up in the air. And you know, we're 817 00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:11,200 Speaker 10: entering the fourth week of this war tomorrow, and it 818 00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:14,560 Speaker 10: feels like it is still escalating rather than winding down. 819 00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:18,799 Speaker 2: You're living Cutter, they've now attacked. Do you feel safe? 820 00:40:20,920 --> 00:40:24,840 Speaker 10: I actually do, to most people's surprise, I do feel 821 00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:27,600 Speaker 10: safe because almost all the missiles and drones are still 822 00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:32,799 Speaker 10: being intercepted, and civilian infrastructure still isn't being targeted that 823 00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:36,040 Speaker 10: we know of. It's definitely not a normal set of 824 00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:38,880 Speaker 10: circumstances to be living under by any means, But I 825 00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:41,640 Speaker 10: don't actually feel like there is an immediate threat to 826 00:40:41,680 --> 00:40:45,279 Speaker 10: my safety. What I am concerned about, though, is what 827 00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:47,200 Speaker 10: this is all going to look like going forward, if 828 00:40:47,200 --> 00:40:50,560 Speaker 10: this does escalate and desalination plants are targeted and hit, 829 00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:54,319 Speaker 10: or if this continues, you know, for months, six months on, 830 00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:57,600 Speaker 10: what life will actually look like here with all of 831 00:40:57,640 --> 00:40:58,920 Speaker 10: this volatility in the region. 832 00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:00,440 Speaker 2: Well, thank you for still being there and thank you 833 00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:02,320 Speaker 2: for doing such a good job in keeping us informed. 834 00:41:02,360 --> 00:41:05,000 Speaker 2: That is Courtney Hammond who's reporting straight out of Kuta, 835 00:41:05,400 --> 00:41:08,720 Speaker 2: after of course they got attacked and the LNG plant 836 00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:12,000 Speaker 2: got blown up. In twenty percent of lengiga capacity has 837 00:41:12,080 --> 00:41:14,520 Speaker 2: now gone for the globe. This is a big problem 838 00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:16,799 Speaker 2: in Pakistan, where a lot of their petrol, a lot 839 00:41:16,800 --> 00:41:21,000 Speaker 2: of their electricity is powered on by LNG plant. And 840 00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:24,400 Speaker 2: also it's a big thing for the government's plans to 841 00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:28,799 Speaker 2: build an LNG plant to safeguard our electricity. It looks 842 00:41:28,800 --> 00:41:32,959 Speaker 2: like the safeguard needs its own safeguarding. Now sixteen after 843 00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:36,000 Speaker 2: five news talks here big so on the fish, Reese 844 00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:39,000 Speaker 2: writes Andrew, they are already taking small fish and chucking 845 00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:43,919 Speaker 2: them back. Dead nets don't use hooks, Recreational fishes don't 846 00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:48,920 Speaker 2: have a clue, and conventionally forget quote. It's thank you 847 00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:51,279 Speaker 2: for your text, Reese, and Mike says, I think you'll 848 00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:53,560 Speaker 2: find mister Jones' claim to be looking outter his people 849 00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:55,920 Speaker 2: as a very long bow to draw in this issue. 850 00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:59,200 Speaker 2: A very few of his people work fishing vessels. You'll 851 00:41:59,239 --> 00:42:03,680 Speaker 2: find that there's significant number of Asian crew who crew 852 00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:06,960 Speaker 2: the fishing boats that depart and unload for the mong 853 00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:10,200 Speaker 2: and we wof across the water from his he heat property. Yes, Mike, 854 00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:11,640 Speaker 2: that is a good point. But at the same time, 855 00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:13,320 Speaker 2: the companies that are doing the fishing and the commercial 856 00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:17,640 Speaker 2: fishes are all part of the quota system that we 857 00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:22,279 Speaker 2: actually that we organized a while back, so in a 858 00:42:22,320 --> 00:42:24,839 Speaker 2: way it is actually still helping his people, but there's 859 00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:28,000 Speaker 2: more than just one his people. Now, we've got a 860 00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:29,799 Speaker 2: new research out of the University of Auckland which has 861 00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:32,399 Speaker 2: found that pollution from cars is killing around the same 862 00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:36,400 Speaker 2: number of New Zealand of Aucklanders every year as smoking. 863 00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:39,800 Speaker 2: So apparently ninety percent of Aucklanders, according to this study, 864 00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:42,520 Speaker 2: are exposed to dangerous levels of air pollution, killing over 865 00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:47,160 Speaker 2: seven hundred people a year. University of Ukland Epidemiology and 866 00:42:47,200 --> 00:42:50,280 Speaker 2: Biostatistics lecturer and author of this report or co author, 867 00:42:50,480 --> 00:42:54,080 Speaker 2: doctor Jamie Hoskin, joins me right now, Jamie, welcome to 868 00:42:54,120 --> 00:42:54,440 Speaker 2: the show. 869 00:42:55,520 --> 00:42:56,440 Speaker 11: Sure, Andrew, thank you. 870 00:42:56,760 --> 00:42:58,600 Speaker 2: So when I was talking about this, a number of 871 00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:00,200 Speaker 2: texts came in straight away and said where did you 872 00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:02,160 Speaker 2: get the number seven hundred from? Did you just pull 873 00:43:02,239 --> 00:43:03,399 Speaker 2: that out from behind your ear? 874 00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:05,640 Speaker 5: No. 875 00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:06,799 Speaker 6: The way that we WIEP. 876 00:43:06,880 --> 00:43:08,680 Speaker 11: That out is pretty similar to how we work out 877 00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:11,960 Speaker 11: how many people die of smoking each year, and that's 878 00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:14,640 Speaker 11: basically you know, people don't go into hospital saying I've 879 00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:17,000 Speaker 11: got a smoking related problem. They come in because they've 880 00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:19,680 Speaker 11: got a harsh tackled they've got a stroke or something. 881 00:43:19,840 --> 00:43:21,560 Speaker 11: And it's the same with the air pollution. So what 882 00:43:21,640 --> 00:43:25,719 Speaker 11: we do is we look at the risk of health 883 00:43:25,760 --> 00:43:29,319 Speaker 11: problems and of dying. If you're exposed to smoking, you're 884 00:43:29,360 --> 00:43:32,640 Speaker 11: breeding in smoke compared to people who are not exposed 885 00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:36,480 Speaker 11: and not breathing in smoke, and the risk course is 886 00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:38,480 Speaker 11: low if people are not breathing it in. When we 887 00:43:38,560 --> 00:43:41,160 Speaker 11: take that risk, we can say, well, what would happen 888 00:43:41,960 --> 00:43:45,200 Speaker 11: if no one smoked? And that tells us and how 889 00:43:45,239 --> 00:43:47,760 Speaker 11: many few deaths would we have if no one smoked? 890 00:43:47,960 --> 00:43:50,080 Speaker 11: That tells us how many people are dying from smoking. 891 00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:52,440 Speaker 11: We can do exactly the same thing with the air pollution. 892 00:43:52,600 --> 00:43:54,640 Speaker 11: How many few are deaths that we have? 893 00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:58,000 Speaker 2: We assume seven hundred people a year. But the study 894 00:43:58,040 --> 00:44:02,560 Speaker 2: also the release say also says it's due to traffic pollution. 895 00:44:03,080 --> 00:44:05,640 Speaker 2: So how do we know it's from traffic pollution because 896 00:44:05,640 --> 00:44:07,640 Speaker 2: it could also be the port or it could be 897 00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:11,400 Speaker 2: general industry in the city, or is it in fact everything. 898 00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:16,320 Speaker 11: Yeah, there are a number of different sources of air pollution, 899 00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:19,839 Speaker 11: and yes, some comes from the port, quite a bit 900 00:44:19,920 --> 00:44:23,200 Speaker 11: comes from home heating. But we do know that most 901 00:44:23,239 --> 00:44:26,279 Speaker 11: of the air pollution, or at least the harm from 902 00:44:26,360 --> 00:44:28,880 Speaker 11: air pollution, is coming from traffic related to air pollution. 903 00:44:29,040 --> 00:44:33,640 Speaker 11: So that's things like essentially it's petrol and diesel being burned. 904 00:44:33,960 --> 00:44:37,360 Speaker 11: They create things like nitrogen dioxide, which is a gas. 905 00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:41,839 Speaker 11: It also creates fine particles. And those fine particles are 906 00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:45,520 Speaker 11: so small that we can't see them, but they're also 907 00:44:45,560 --> 00:44:47,920 Speaker 11: because they're so small, when we breed them in, they 908 00:44:47,920 --> 00:44:50,880 Speaker 11: get right down inside out to the innermost parts of 909 00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:53,040 Speaker 11: our lungs and they cause harm there. 910 00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:55,959 Speaker 2: All right, Well, look, I love drist across from the port, 911 00:44:56,520 --> 00:44:58,440 Speaker 2: and I can tell you that once a month my 912 00:44:58,560 --> 00:45:00,719 Speaker 2: car ends up black, and that's on the omissions that 913 00:45:00,719 --> 00:45:02,399 Speaker 2: are coming out from the boats that are coming into 914 00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:04,399 Speaker 2: the thing. So of course, if my car's going back, 915 00:45:04,400 --> 00:45:06,600 Speaker 2: I presume the lungs are going black as well. So 916 00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:09,359 Speaker 2: the question I have for you, what can what can 917 00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:12,080 Speaker 2: people do to minimize their risk? 918 00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:16,040 Speaker 11: Yeah, well, of course, I mean you live next to 919 00:45:16,080 --> 00:45:18,040 Speaker 11: the port. Most people don't live next to the port. 920 00:45:18,360 --> 00:45:20,799 Speaker 11: And in terms of what people can do, I mean, 921 00:45:21,120 --> 00:45:25,200 Speaker 11: this is not really something that individuals can solve. You 922 00:45:25,239 --> 00:45:28,560 Speaker 11: can't avoid breathing an air pollution. This is really something 923 00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:32,600 Speaker 11: that is going to be solved by councils, local government 924 00:45:32,840 --> 00:45:35,879 Speaker 11: and central government as well. So in this report we've 925 00:45:36,160 --> 00:45:39,760 Speaker 11: put out the most important things that can be done 926 00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:43,000 Speaker 11: so at a council level, such as for Auckland. That's 927 00:45:43,040 --> 00:45:48,520 Speaker 11: things like public transport to make it more convenient and 928 00:45:48,640 --> 00:45:52,680 Speaker 11: rapid and affordable, because that means that people can use 929 00:45:52,719 --> 00:45:57,040 Speaker 11: public transport, take fewer trips by driving. That cleans the air. 930 00:45:58,120 --> 00:46:01,560 Speaker 11: The same thing applies to getting people walking and cycling, 931 00:46:01,640 --> 00:46:04,560 Speaker 11: and also tools like congestion charging which also means is 932 00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:05,840 Speaker 11: traffic and clean it here. 933 00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:08,000 Speaker 2: All right, Doctor JB. Hosking, thank you so much. He 934 00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:11,520 Speaker 2: as a senior lecturer epidemiology and biostatistics at the University 935 00:46:11,560 --> 00:46:16,000 Speaker 2: of Auckland and co authored that and made made some assumptions. 936 00:46:16,719 --> 00:46:17,919 Speaker 2: It is five twenty three. 937 00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:21,560 Speaker 1: The name you trust to get the answers you need, 938 00:46:21,760 --> 00:46:25,279 Speaker 1: it's Andrew dickens On Hither duplessy Ellen drive with one 939 00:46:25,360 --> 00:46:28,600 Speaker 1: new Zealand coverage like no one else use talks. 940 00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:31,520 Speaker 2: They'd b It is five twenty six, so I'll be 941 00:46:31,600 --> 00:46:34,839 Speaker 2: listening to Mike Hoskins's existential battle over the past couple 942 00:46:34,880 --> 00:46:38,040 Speaker 2: of weeks about him and his family buying an EV. 943 00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:41,480 Speaker 2: It's been very entertaining. This morning's development is that his 944 00:46:41,560 --> 00:46:44,600 Speaker 2: wife told him that she would rather walk than ride 945 00:46:44,600 --> 00:46:46,719 Speaker 2: it in an EV. But I'm not sure what sort 946 00:46:46,760 --> 00:46:49,440 Speaker 2: of distance we're talking about here. As the owner of 947 00:46:49,480 --> 00:46:52,480 Speaker 2: an EV in a petrol SUV, I can tell Mike 948 00:46:52,560 --> 00:46:56,320 Speaker 2: and Caate that it's just a car. An EV is 949 00:46:56,360 --> 00:46:58,560 Speaker 2: a car that goes from A to B. So when 950 00:46:58,560 --> 00:47:00,520 Speaker 2: I bought my EV two years ago, not trying to 951 00:47:00,520 --> 00:47:02,200 Speaker 2: save the world, I did the math and the EV 952 00:47:02,360 --> 00:47:05,120 Speaker 2: came up seventy percent lower in running costs, and I 953 00:47:05,160 --> 00:47:07,239 Speaker 2: bought an MG four, which is the twenty twenty four 954 00:47:07,280 --> 00:47:10,200 Speaker 2: car of the year. It's sporty, it goes like a 955 00:47:10,239 --> 00:47:12,880 Speaker 2: scolder cat. I charge it when I'm at the supermarket. 956 00:47:12,920 --> 00:47:14,920 Speaker 2: I charge it once a fortnight, a trundle around the 957 00:47:14,920 --> 00:47:19,040 Speaker 2: town smugly. I have never and would never say that 958 00:47:19,120 --> 00:47:21,399 Speaker 2: all of New Zealand should get one. By the way, 959 00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:23,440 Speaker 2: the wife is working in Rottalua this week. She's going 960 00:47:23,480 --> 00:47:25,400 Speaker 2: to take the petrol car because she doesn't want the 961 00:47:25,440 --> 00:47:28,279 Speaker 2: fact of finding a charger and the range anxiety. So 962 00:47:28,360 --> 00:47:30,120 Speaker 2: what we have done with an EV in a petrol 963 00:47:30,120 --> 00:47:32,920 Speaker 2: car is spread our risk. It's horses for courses. You 964 00:47:33,040 --> 00:47:36,279 Speaker 2: use the best horse for the course, so people go. 965 00:47:36,360 --> 00:47:38,880 Speaker 2: Whenever I say this, people tell me, yes, still ruining 966 00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:40,960 Speaker 2: the planet because of the cost of mining all those 967 00:47:41,040 --> 00:47:44,040 Speaker 2: rare earths. And that's true. I either wreck the environment 968 00:47:44,080 --> 00:47:46,120 Speaker 2: with a petrol car or I wreck an environment with 969 00:47:46,160 --> 00:47:48,719 Speaker 2: the EV. The advantage for me is that my EV 970 00:47:48,880 --> 00:47:51,920 Speaker 2: is cheaper, but I am no longer hostage to the 971 00:47:51,920 --> 00:47:54,720 Speaker 2: oil producers of the Middle East, at least with my car. Anyway, 972 00:47:55,160 --> 00:47:57,719 Speaker 2: we are all hostage to the oil producers of the 973 00:47:57,719 --> 00:48:01,400 Speaker 2: Middle East, which is why we're facing a global crisis. 974 00:48:01,440 --> 00:48:06,080 Speaker 2: The world is hostage to them. My only fear with 975 00:48:06,160 --> 00:48:08,440 Speaker 2: the evs and trying to get away from the Middle 976 00:48:08,480 --> 00:48:12,080 Speaker 2: East stranglehold is that we don't have enough electricity, which 977 00:48:12,120 --> 00:48:15,160 Speaker 2: is why whenever I hear that a hydro dam can't 978 00:48:15,200 --> 00:48:18,640 Speaker 2: go ahead because of some snails, I say, well, sorry, snails, 979 00:48:19,160 --> 00:48:23,040 Speaker 2: humans need energy. It's you or I Sorry, mate, you lose, 980 00:48:23,480 --> 00:48:26,360 Speaker 2: sorry snails, which is why at this juncture of history, 981 00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:28,600 Speaker 2: I say, let's spend as much as we can improving 982 00:48:28,640 --> 00:48:33,239 Speaker 2: and expanding our electricity production. It's renewable, but more importantly 983 00:48:33,640 --> 00:48:36,400 Speaker 2: we would own and control it. And the more of 984 00:48:36,440 --> 00:48:39,200 Speaker 2: it we have, the less the oil producers will hold 985 00:48:39,239 --> 00:48:41,520 Speaker 2: our lives and economy hostage. 986 00:48:41,840 --> 00:48:43,440 Speaker 4: Andrew Dickens. 987 00:48:43,719 --> 00:48:46,799 Speaker 2: So the sports huddle is on the way. Is this 988 00:48:46,960 --> 00:48:50,120 Speaker 2: our year for the Warriors?

And when I when 1003 00:49:38,120 --> 00:49:40,480 Speaker 2: I was doing my little ranch just beforehand, I knew 1004 00:49:40,480 --> 00:49:43,640 Speaker 2: this would happen. Takes three from a poker COWA farmer 1005 00:49:44,600 --> 00:49:46,960 Speaker 2: called s R. Says Andrew, when I heard you say 1006 00:49:47,040 --> 00:49:52,040 Speaker 2: wife just then you normally say partner. Is there something 1007 00:49:52,080 --> 00:49:54,200 Speaker 2: we have missed? Or was that a mistake? 1008 00:49:55,120 --> 00:49:55,200 Speaker 9: No? 1009 00:49:55,440 --> 00:49:58,319 Speaker 2: Is a pooker cowa farmer. Helen and I this year 1010 00:49:58,320 --> 00:50:02,040 Speaker 2: will celebrate our forty sixth anniversary together. We have two children, 1011 00:50:03,560 --> 00:50:05,719 Speaker 2: but we never ever got married because we spent the 1012 00:50:05,760 --> 00:50:08,520 Speaker 2: money actually buying a house so we could give the 1013 00:50:08,600 --> 00:50:12,919 Speaker 2: kids a home. And I've got so much arjibarji about 1014 00:50:12,960 --> 00:50:16,360 Speaker 2: this over the years. What are you? This degrades the 1015 00:50:16,360 --> 00:50:21,359 Speaker 2: institution of marriage. We've been together forty six years and 1016 00:50:21,440 --> 00:50:23,120 Speaker 2: I got sick of it. I got sick of saying 1017 00:50:23,120 --> 00:50:25,480 Speaker 2: partner gave we Oh who you whats a liberally? 1018 00:50:25,560 --> 00:50:25,960 Speaker 17: You eh? 1019 00:50:26,080 --> 00:50:31,360 Speaker 2: This is the destruction of New Zealand society forty six years. 1020 00:50:32,160 --> 00:50:37,000 Speaker 2: So I've for ease of comprehension. I say wife because 1021 00:50:37,200 --> 00:50:40,759 Speaker 2: she and I more than husband and wife. If you've 1022 00:50:40,760 --> 00:50:46,520 Speaker 2: been together forty six years, come on then come on then, idea, 1023 00:50:46,719 --> 00:50:50,800 Speaker 2: come on, take me on, come on forty six years. 1024 00:50:51,880 --> 00:50:52,520 Speaker 2: Love you, Helen. 1025 00:50:52,760 --> 00:50:52,920 Speaker 17: Now. 1026 00:50:53,000 --> 00:50:55,319 Speaker 2: Also another text throw from Dan and says, maybe I'm 1027 00:50:55,360 --> 00:50:58,080 Speaker 2: just a bit too glass half full. But with twenty 1028 00:50:58,080 --> 00:51:01,000 Speaker 2: percent of llen G gone over night after the strike 1029 00:51:01,040 --> 00:51:04,040 Speaker 2: and cutter, isn't there an opportunity for New Zealand to 1030 00:51:04,080 --> 00:51:08,279 Speaker 2: fill with our energy needs but also the potential global shortfall. 1031 00:51:08,600 --> 00:51:12,520 Speaker 2: Look at the opportunity and drill baby drill, says Dan. 1032 00:51:12,600 --> 00:51:15,719 Speaker 2: Now here's the problem I have with drill, baby drill, 1033 00:51:15,760 --> 00:51:18,799 Speaker 2: and that in the one hundred years of drilling, not 1034 00:51:19,040 --> 00:51:21,279 Speaker 2: one bit of oil that we've extracted has ever been 1035 00:51:21,280 --> 00:51:23,839 Speaker 2: converted into petrol that could be used by a car. 1036 00:51:23,960 --> 00:51:27,799 Speaker 2: Our oil is too sweet. It's sent overseas to be 1037 00:51:27,880 --> 00:51:31,680 Speaker 2: used in something else. It's export money. We've never found 1038 00:51:31,680 --> 00:51:36,000 Speaker 2: the petrol for the cars and the diesel for the generators. 1039 00:51:36,320 --> 00:51:39,560 Speaker 2: We've never found that from drill, baby drill. But you know, 1040 00:51:39,600 --> 00:51:41,440 Speaker 2: if we cross all our fingers and all our toes, 1041 00:51:41,480 --> 00:51:45,000 Speaker 2: maybe at some time, really soon, hopefully we could find 1042 00:51:45,040 --> 00:51:47,799 Speaker 2: some oil or in this case, natural gas, and god 1043 00:51:47,800 --> 00:51:49,600 Speaker 2: knows who've been looking for that as well, that could 1044 00:51:49,600 --> 00:51:52,360 Speaker 2: suddenly solve all our problems. And that wouldn't that be amazing. 1045 00:51:52,400 --> 00:51:54,000 Speaker 2: But as soon as we find it. I would say 1046 00:51:54,000 --> 00:51:57,200 Speaker 2: the lag would be about ten to twenty, probably twenty 1047 00:51:57,320 --> 00:51:59,680 Speaker 2: years before we actually got a single drop or a 1048 00:51:59,719 --> 00:52:03,200 Speaker 2: single atom of guests out of the earth. Are we 1049 00:52:03,280 --> 00:52:05,400 Speaker 2: prepared to wait twenty years? Which is why what I 1050 00:52:05,480 --> 00:52:10,479 Speaker 2: said before the break was instead of drill, baby drill, 1051 00:52:11,080 --> 00:52:14,600 Speaker 2: how about damn baby damn, and let's make as much 1052 00:52:14,680 --> 00:52:15,440 Speaker 2: interested as we. 1053 00:52:15,400 --> 00:52:20,680 Speaker 1: Can the Friday Sports title with New Zealand Souberby's International Realty, 1054 00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:23,480 Speaker 1: a name you can trust locally and globally. 1055 00:52:31,640 --> 00:52:33,680 Speaker 19: We're not at that point, and I think that would 1056 00:52:33,680 --> 00:52:36,640 Speaker 19: be quite an extreme reaction. I think everyone is trying 1057 00:52:36,680 --> 00:52:38,640 Speaker 19: to figure out what's best for the game, and obviously 1058 00:52:38,640 --> 00:52:41,480 Speaker 19: it's at different stakeholders at the moment, and the players 1059 00:52:41,520 --> 00:52:42,680 Speaker 19: one's best for the game too. 1060 00:52:42,840 --> 00:52:44,239 Speaker 2: Well, it is cool, dan, isn't it? 1061 00:52:44,800 --> 00:52:46,520 Speaker 17: But it potentially could be a little bit wet, so 1062 00:52:46,560 --> 00:52:48,880 Speaker 17: it's probably not the best, the best not slippers. 1063 00:52:48,880 --> 00:52:52,239 Speaker 3: But yeah, it's a good gesture, and yeah, it's been 1064 00:52:52,280 --> 00:52:52,880 Speaker 3: pretty funny. 1065 00:52:52,920 --> 00:52:55,799 Speaker 7: Really, it's like a publischeme for me to stay on and 1066 00:52:55,960 --> 00:52:58,520 Speaker 7: as a no brainer, really, I was excited to take 1067 00:52:58,600 --> 00:53:01,319 Speaker 7: stand and yeah, trying continue the what we're doing. 1068 00:53:02,200 --> 00:53:04,000 Speaker 2: Well, there's that voice from Scotland. We're going to be 1069 00:53:04,000 --> 00:53:05,640 Speaker 2: talking about that in a few monthers time in the 1070 00:53:05,640 --> 00:53:07,680 Speaker 2: sports huddle. And in the sports Huddle today we have 1071 00:53:07,840 --> 00:53:10,279 Speaker 2: Andrew Ordison, who you all know and love, and Nick 1072 00:53:10,320 --> 00:53:13,320 Speaker 2: Burley about christach Office, who you also know and love. Gentlemen, 1073 00:53:13,360 --> 00:53:14,200 Speaker 2: good afternoon to. 1074 00:53:14,160 --> 00:53:17,280 Speaker 17: You, greeting sellas Hi Andrew. 1075 00:53:17,440 --> 00:53:19,920 Speaker 2: All right, all right, before we get to the rugby, 1076 00:53:20,200 --> 00:53:23,000 Speaker 2: the big thing is Warriors nights, because this is two 1077 00:53:23,080 --> 00:53:25,360 Speaker 2: teams to and o and that's going to be amazing. 1078 00:53:25,400 --> 00:53:28,360 Speaker 2: Now there's been a poll on stuff and the question 1079 00:53:28,600 --> 00:53:32,520 Speaker 2: was is twenty twenty six the Warriors year? So yes 1080 00:53:32,880 --> 00:53:37,040 Speaker 2: twenty seven percent, No, twenty two percent, it's too early 1081 00:53:37,120 --> 00:53:40,759 Speaker 2: to tell thirty six percent and it's always our year 1082 00:53:41,160 --> 00:53:44,480 Speaker 2: fourteen percent. So Andrew Ordison, what would you vote? 1083 00:53:45,960 --> 00:53:48,839 Speaker 17: Well, you've got to go always, always the idea tell 1084 00:53:48,840 --> 00:53:52,080 Speaker 17: you with the Warriors. I love this, this thread that 1085 00:53:52,200 --> 00:53:54,759 Speaker 17: that runs through and more often than ane, I think 1086 00:53:54,800 --> 00:53:56,880 Speaker 17: this time with what Andrew Webster has been able to 1087 00:53:56,880 --> 00:53:59,880 Speaker 17: do over a number of seasons, we've seen the consistency 1088 00:54:00,560 --> 00:54:03,000 Speaker 17: with the Warriors. They might have dial back a touch 1089 00:54:03,040 --> 00:54:05,640 Speaker 17: maybe on flair, but they've backed up with that. Yeah, 1090 00:54:05,680 --> 00:54:08,799 Speaker 17: with the I guess the results in the backing from 1091 00:54:09,239 --> 00:54:12,400 Speaker 17: you know, just putting together performances. And I've seen just 1092 00:54:12,600 --> 00:54:15,680 Speaker 17: doing some reaches that webs has the second highest percentage 1093 00:54:15,719 --> 00:54:17,640 Speaker 17: rate the wins and the Warrior's coaching ranks next to 1094 00:54:17,680 --> 00:54:20,680 Speaker 17: Daniel Andsen, who's on fifty five. We'ves to with fifty two. 1095 00:54:21,120 --> 00:54:24,640 Speaker 17: Ivan clearly forty nine. So he goes is an example 1096 00:54:24,640 --> 00:54:25,920 Speaker 17: of where he's taking the seam. 1097 00:54:26,080 --> 00:54:28,960 Speaker 2: Don't you love statistics? But Andrew, who's going to win 1098 00:54:29,040 --> 00:54:29,680 Speaker 2: mate Warriors? 1099 00:54:31,200 --> 00:54:33,359 Speaker 17: Well, I'm going to go to Warriors? Good Man a roll? 1100 00:54:33,560 --> 00:54:37,080 Speaker 2: Well, it's always our year and yes, And now here's 1101 00:54:37,120 --> 00:54:38,480 Speaker 2: the thing. I just realized that if you take the 1102 00:54:38,560 --> 00:54:41,279 Speaker 2: yes vote twenty seven percent and it's always our year 1103 00:54:41,360 --> 00:54:44,359 Speaker 2: vote fourteen percent, that makes forty one percent and that's 1104 00:54:44,360 --> 00:54:47,000 Speaker 2: a clear majority. So it's going to happen. Nick Burley, 1105 00:54:47,000 --> 00:54:47,760 Speaker 2: what would you vote? 1106 00:54:49,320 --> 00:54:51,600 Speaker 15: Well, I'm probably a little bit more pessimistic because I've 1107 00:54:51,600 --> 00:54:53,520 Speaker 15: been broken more times than I can count on my 1108 00:54:53,560 --> 00:54:55,839 Speaker 15: hands when it comes to Warriors fandom over the last 1109 00:54:55,840 --> 00:54:59,279 Speaker 15: thirty odd years. Look thin, you wrap a little bit 1110 00:54:59,280 --> 00:55:02,480 Speaker 15: of context around and obviously we're only in the early stages. 1111 00:55:02,520 --> 00:55:05,919 Speaker 15: Around three. You look at Penrith who have had two 1112 00:55:05,920 --> 00:55:08,600 Speaker 15: from two as well, and they've only conceded one try 1113 00:55:08,680 --> 00:55:11,920 Speaker 15: across one hundred and sixty minutes of football. But I 1114 00:55:11,920 --> 00:55:14,640 Speaker 15: do agree with orders. I think the way Andrew Webster 1115 00:55:14,680 --> 00:55:18,120 Speaker 15: has this team humming and particularly without a couple of 1116 00:55:18,120 --> 00:55:22,400 Speaker 15: their frontline players and Luke Metcalf and Mitch Barnett very 1117 00:55:22,480 --> 00:55:25,200 Speaker 15: encouraging signs. And then you look beyond that. I guess 1118 00:55:25,200 --> 00:55:27,480 Speaker 15: if we open that question up, is it the Warriors 1119 00:55:27,560 --> 00:55:30,880 Speaker 15: year even off the field, and when you look at 1120 00:55:30,880 --> 00:55:34,359 Speaker 15: its pathways, you look at the crowds, it's attracting. It's 1121 00:55:34,360 --> 00:55:37,120 Speaker 15: certainly going from strength to strength since that breakthrough season 1122 00:55:37,360 --> 00:55:39,320 Speaker 15: in twenty twenty three. So I think they're going to 1123 00:55:39,400 --> 00:55:43,279 Speaker 15: win the premiership this year. Probably not, But at the 1124 00:55:43,280 --> 00:55:45,520 Speaker 15: same time two I might go check my passport just 1125 00:55:45,560 --> 00:55:47,480 Speaker 15: in case they made the Grand Final, because I would 1126 00:55:47,560 --> 00:55:49,680 Speaker 15: not be missing that for how long high water. 1127 00:55:50,320 --> 00:55:52,040 Speaker 2: Yes, he might want to talk to the bank manager 1128 00:55:52,080 --> 00:55:53,879 Speaker 2: as well to afford the air fares to get there 1129 00:55:53,880 --> 00:55:56,879 Speaker 2: for the Grand Flannal, but that's another story entirely. Let's 1130 00:55:56,920 --> 00:55:58,560 Speaker 2: move on to rugby, and the big story out of 1131 00:55:58,640 --> 00:56:01,080 Speaker 2: rugby is not Chris clack Lee Law just about saying 1132 00:56:01,120 --> 00:56:03,160 Speaker 2: Chrys Slade ball there look at that. It's not Clark, 1133 00:56:03,160 --> 00:56:04,920 Speaker 2: but I will talk about Clark at the moment. It's 1134 00:56:04,920 --> 00:56:08,319 Speaker 2: actually that rugby clubs are waving junior fees and the 1135 00:56:08,400 --> 00:56:10,360 Speaker 2: question I have for you Andrew orterson is will this 1136 00:56:10,440 --> 00:56:12,839 Speaker 2: stop the rugby numbers declining which they have been. 1137 00:56:14,160 --> 00:56:17,040 Speaker 17: Well, they're claiming the numbers are up, aren't they incrementially 1138 00:56:17,040 --> 00:56:19,520 Speaker 17: from previous years. Look, I think it's a it's a 1139 00:56:19,560 --> 00:56:22,680 Speaker 17: noble gesture, certainly sign that the rugby is not complacent 1140 00:56:22,760 --> 00:56:25,720 Speaker 17: here against the competition that's there across what the sports. 1141 00:56:25,719 --> 00:56:29,480 Speaker 17: You think of the growth of football and basketball, et cetera. 1142 00:56:30,520 --> 00:56:32,960 Speaker 17: But I just don't know. I think a wider issue, 1143 00:56:33,160 --> 00:56:36,000 Speaker 17: you know, as a parent, you know, with concussion in 1144 00:56:36,320 --> 00:56:39,640 Speaker 17: the details and the analysis that we have on that 1145 00:56:39,800 --> 00:56:43,600 Speaker 17: now the research, I think they're up against wider factors. 1146 00:56:43,640 --> 00:56:45,239 Speaker 17: Albeit that's probably not going to be that much of 1147 00:56:45,280 --> 00:56:48,360 Speaker 17: effect kids level, But good on them for waving the 1148 00:56:48,400 --> 00:56:52,399 Speaker 17: fees and taking an initiative in that regard. So I think, yes, 1149 00:56:52,600 --> 00:56:54,200 Speaker 17: it's still some work to be done on that, but 1150 00:56:54,239 --> 00:56:57,160 Speaker 17: it's it's difficult for rugby to claim back that that territory. 1151 00:56:57,160 --> 00:57:00,080 Speaker 2: I think so and Nick, I presume you agree, but 1152 00:57:00,120 --> 00:57:02,360 Speaker 2: also I mean they've got so much competition from the 1153 00:57:02,400 --> 00:57:04,840 Speaker 2: other sports that have risen the basketballs of this world, 1154 00:57:04,840 --> 00:57:07,719 Speaker 2: et cetera. You know, so would this be enough to 1155 00:57:07,760 --> 00:57:11,799 Speaker 2: stop the losing of numbers at their yearly age then 1156 00:57:11,800 --> 00:57:13,120 Speaker 2: the grab hooking them in. 1157 00:57:14,400 --> 00:57:17,080 Speaker 15: I think we need to probably stop comparing perhaps what 1158 00:57:17,520 --> 00:57:21,080 Speaker 15: the numbers were like, say twenty odd years ago today 1159 00:57:21,200 --> 00:57:24,360 Speaker 15: when rugby had such a stronghold in terms of our 1160 00:57:24,480 --> 00:57:27,280 Speaker 15: culture and fabric. Yes, it is very much to our 1161 00:57:27,360 --> 00:57:29,480 Speaker 15: national sport, at least we like to claim that in 1162 00:57:29,560 --> 00:57:32,520 Speaker 15: terms of the following of all blacks and black fans 1163 00:57:32,560 --> 00:57:34,800 Speaker 15: and super Rugby. But there is so much more choice. 1164 00:57:34,800 --> 00:57:37,560 Speaker 15: And I agree with Orders as a parent of a 1165 00:57:37,560 --> 00:57:41,000 Speaker 15: couple of young boys and looking at all those options available, 1166 00:57:41,040 --> 00:57:44,480 Speaker 15: and then you consider that the weather element as well, 1167 00:57:44,520 --> 00:57:47,720 Speaker 15: and just being able to enjoy yourself indoors at a 1168 00:57:47,720 --> 00:57:51,000 Speaker 15: basketball venue and the like. There are so much more 1169 00:57:51,080 --> 00:57:54,520 Speaker 15: choices these days. As Orders says, it's a noble gesture, 1170 00:57:54,520 --> 00:57:57,520 Speaker 15: but it is worth pointing that that orangeed report around 1171 00:57:57,560 --> 00:58:02,040 Speaker 15: the numbers, this has been funneled down or basically it's 1172 00:58:02,320 --> 00:58:06,600 Speaker 15: interest built off that that Silver Lake deal, so that 1173 00:58:06,840 --> 00:58:12,760 Speaker 15: money for you know, mouthguards and uniforms for young boys 1174 00:58:12,760 --> 00:58:15,080 Speaker 15: and girls to play rugby. But that money still has 1175 00:58:15,080 --> 00:58:18,280 Speaker 15: to be found somewhere so that the clubs can only 1176 00:58:18,360 --> 00:58:21,960 Speaker 15: go so far. But any barrier that can be removed 1177 00:58:21,960 --> 00:58:24,440 Speaker 15: for a child to play any sport or get out 1178 00:58:24,440 --> 00:58:25,880 Speaker 15: and about certainly a good. 1179 00:58:25,680 --> 00:58:29,000 Speaker 2: Thing well said. But harden up, Nick, I mean, there's 1180 00:58:29,000 --> 00:58:30,400 Speaker 2: only a little bit of rain and a little bit 1181 00:58:30,400 --> 00:58:30,720 Speaker 2: of mud. 1182 00:58:30,880 --> 00:58:33,040 Speaker 15: You just say, I'm down. I'm down here in christ 1183 00:58:33,080 --> 00:58:35,040 Speaker 15: and Andrew, you come tell me that after. 1184 00:58:36,080 --> 00:58:41,320 Speaker 2: I dress appropriately anywhere? Okay. And finally in our montage 1185 00:58:41,360 --> 00:58:44,160 Speaker 2: we heard the beautiful Scottish rogue of Clark laid Law, 1186 00:58:44,280 --> 00:58:46,600 Speaker 2: former sevens coach now of course coach of the Hurricanes, 1187 00:58:46,640 --> 00:58:48,919 Speaker 2: and it's been announced that New Zealand Rugby has kept 1188 00:58:48,920 --> 00:58:52,240 Speaker 2: his services. Good news, Andrew, Oh, I think so. 1189 00:58:52,320 --> 00:58:54,200 Speaker 17: I mean the tug Lade Law it was had two 1190 00:58:54,240 --> 00:58:56,600 Speaker 17: seasons at the head of the Hurricanes. Therea's had been 1191 00:58:56,680 --> 00:58:59,440 Speaker 17: the playoffs twice and in the semi finals in twenty 1192 00:58:59,480 --> 00:59:01,200 Speaker 17: twenty four and they were top of the round robin. 1193 00:59:01,280 --> 00:59:03,800 Speaker 17: Then he's always seem like an appaple bloke, a lot 1194 00:59:03,840 --> 00:59:06,800 Speaker 17: of common sense and he's got this throrific record as 1195 00:59:06,800 --> 00:59:09,160 Speaker 17: well with the sevens, I mean with the silver from Tokyo, 1196 00:59:09,880 --> 00:59:13,240 Speaker 17: but also a couple of World Series titles of World Cup. 1197 00:59:13,840 --> 00:59:17,680 Speaker 17: He clearly knows how to motivate rugby players in various codes, 1198 00:59:17,720 --> 00:59:20,040 Speaker 17: and I think that it makes a bit of sense 1199 00:59:20,040 --> 00:59:21,160 Speaker 17: to persevere with them. 1200 00:59:21,360 --> 00:59:24,200 Speaker 2: Good stuff. Nick Bailey would can it be one of them? 1201 00:59:27,840 --> 00:59:32,480 Speaker 15: I wouldn't say no, I'm sure. Look the one curious 1202 00:59:32,520 --> 00:59:34,480 Speaker 15: element for me, and I don't know if it was 1203 00:59:34,520 --> 00:59:37,800 Speaker 15: addressed when Clark fronted the media earlier in the week 1204 00:59:37,840 --> 00:59:40,760 Speaker 15: after this, you put pen to paper to an extra 1205 00:59:40,800 --> 00:59:44,480 Speaker 15: deal on the Canes deal. Given New Zealand Rugby's insistence 1206 00:59:44,560 --> 00:59:47,040 Speaker 15: I'm not hiring anyone for the all black head coach 1207 00:59:47,080 --> 00:59:49,880 Speaker 15: who doesn't have a New Zealand passport, where does that 1208 00:59:49,960 --> 00:59:52,840 Speaker 15: leave Clark laidlaw? If he goes on to win a 1209 00:59:52,840 --> 00:59:54,920 Speaker 15: Super Rugby title this year with the Hurricanes and he 1210 00:59:54,960 --> 00:59:58,600 Speaker 15: continues to present a compelling case, is he left on 1211 00:59:58,680 --> 01:00:02,080 Speaker 15: the alter because of where he's from or are we 1212 01:00:02,120 --> 01:00:05,000 Speaker 15: adopting him as a New Zealander now? And that'll be okay. 1213 01:00:05,440 --> 01:00:08,480 Speaker 15: Just go talk to mind then as we're discussing it. 1214 01:00:08,480 --> 01:00:11,080 Speaker 2: It's a very very good point, Nick, damn the rules, 1215 01:00:11,200 --> 01:00:13,120 Speaker 2: hate the rules. Always give them the way and I 1216 01:00:13,120 --> 01:00:16,240 Speaker 2: thank you. Nick Bewley and Andrew Ordison On the Sports Huddle, 1217 01:00:16,240 --> 01:00:18,200 Speaker 2: We're back in a few moments time with the surprising 1218 01:00:18,280 --> 01:00:22,560 Speaker 2: story about the possible cricket balls shortage with New Zealand's 1219 01:00:22,560 --> 01:00:24,760 Speaker 2: forthcoming series against in England. 1220 01:00:26,840 --> 01:00:31,000 Speaker 1: The Friday Sports Huddle with New Zealand South of East International. 1221 01:00:30,480 --> 01:00:33,240 Speaker 4: Realty, the only truly global brand. 1222 01:00:35,200 --> 01:00:37,640 Speaker 2: All right, new sore b We're back with the Sports Huddle. 1223 01:00:37,640 --> 01:00:40,800 Speaker 2: On the Huddle today Andrew Ordison and Nick Bewley. So 1224 01:00:40,920 --> 01:00:43,320 Speaker 2: let's move on to cricket. We've got a double heather 1225 01:00:43,760 --> 01:00:47,080 Speaker 2: happening right now and the women have in fact won 1226 01:00:47,520 --> 01:00:50,280 Speaker 2: their match against South Africa. And now, of course after 1227 01:00:50,320 --> 01:00:53,320 Speaker 2: seven o'clock at Eden Park, we've got the men New 1228 01:00:53,440 --> 01:00:59,080 Speaker 2: Zealand versus the pro teers and my producer Andrew Ordison. Andy, 1229 01:00:59,160 --> 01:01:01,400 Speaker 2: you know, Andy Well says, who cares? This is just 1230 01:01:01,400 --> 01:01:03,120 Speaker 2: a couple of beat teams having a knock about. 1231 01:01:07,240 --> 01:01:11,360 Speaker 17: Well, it's really sorry. Look it's it's still isn't. I mean? 1232 01:01:11,400 --> 01:01:14,320 Speaker 17: Cheap by Jao with the World Cup. It's just just 1233 01:01:14,400 --> 01:01:17,400 Speaker 17: it seems, you know, jump back into this something just 1234 01:01:17,400 --> 01:01:20,400 Speaker 17: to get something into the summer domestic schedule. And yeah, 1235 01:01:21,040 --> 01:01:23,800 Speaker 17: the numbers are down, the quality of talent probably not 1236 01:01:23,920 --> 01:01:27,520 Speaker 17: there when you look particularly at this African team. And 1237 01:01:27,720 --> 01:01:29,520 Speaker 17: this is something that you know, is the problem with 1238 01:01:29,560 --> 01:01:32,800 Speaker 17: tricking alone with these global wi lack thereof of global windows, 1239 01:01:32,800 --> 01:01:35,600 Speaker 17: et cetera. And they were wanting to at least to 1240 01:01:35,640 --> 01:01:37,960 Speaker 17: have a breaker in their schedules. And this is probably 1241 01:01:37,960 --> 01:01:39,720 Speaker 17: a logical time for I mean, not all the New 1242 01:01:39,800 --> 01:01:43,200 Speaker 17: Zealanders there either. So yeah, it's a difficult one. Well, 1243 01:01:43,480 --> 01:01:44,760 Speaker 17: it needs solving at a wider. 1244 01:01:44,640 --> 01:01:46,560 Speaker 2: Level, doesn't No, no, no, no, We're building depth for the 1245 01:01:46,560 --> 01:01:48,480 Speaker 2: next World Cup, which is which is in where never, 1246 01:01:49,120 --> 01:01:51,320 Speaker 2: you know, and you've got to blood these guys in 1247 01:01:51,360 --> 01:01:54,440 Speaker 2: some way or another. But here's the thing. We've got 1248 01:01:54,440 --> 01:01:56,520 Speaker 2: our mojo back in game two. Are we going to 1249 01:01:56,520 --> 01:02:00,440 Speaker 2: carry on and win Game three at Eden? Pag Andrew? 1250 01:02:01,040 --> 01:02:02,520 Speaker 15: Look, it's yeah. 1251 01:02:02,520 --> 01:02:03,800 Speaker 17: I think they're every chance, I mean to get to 1252 01:02:03,840 --> 01:02:05,680 Speaker 17: a weekend for the African sidelight that I mean, at 1253 01:02:05,760 --> 01:02:08,360 Speaker 17: least there is some domestic international cricket out there, and 1254 01:02:08,920 --> 01:02:11,640 Speaker 17: hopefully they'll get a decent crowd along to see that. 1255 01:02:11,720 --> 01:02:13,400 Speaker 17: I know there's quite a few free tickets been given 1256 01:02:13,440 --> 01:02:17,320 Speaker 17: out to a club level to get along. I guess 1257 01:02:17,800 --> 01:02:20,280 Speaker 17: otherwise you'res that cabinet situation. But yeah, something he's in 1258 01:02:20,320 --> 01:02:22,480 Speaker 17: a well capable and you know, given you know, they 1259 01:02:22,520 --> 01:02:24,760 Speaker 17: still they do have a good depth of talent there 1260 01:02:24,760 --> 01:02:26,120 Speaker 17: and they're still to the talent on show. 1261 01:02:26,320 --> 01:02:29,040 Speaker 2: Okay, now, I'm sorry, Nick I handed it over to 1262 01:02:29,080 --> 01:02:31,040 Speaker 2: Ordison because he's a cricket tragic but what do you. 1263 01:02:31,000 --> 01:02:36,600 Speaker 15: Think to be totally honest and look, this is where 1264 01:02:36,800 --> 01:02:40,560 Speaker 15: the Black Cats being super accessible on Free to Live 1265 01:02:40,600 --> 01:02:46,000 Speaker 15: on TV, AND's head's outside of reading Andrew Ordison's superb 1266 01:02:46,120 --> 01:02:50,920 Speaker 15: cricket copy on you I have I have hand on heart, 1267 01:02:51,040 --> 01:02:55,320 Speaker 15: not watched a single delivery. It is just and that 1268 01:02:55,400 --> 01:02:58,440 Speaker 15: probably stresses the point that Andy McDonald's trying to make you, Andrew, 1269 01:02:59,480 --> 01:03:03,400 Speaker 15: I have better things to do with my hours outside 1270 01:03:03,440 --> 01:03:07,760 Speaker 15: of work then watch you know be Also Ram's play 1271 01:03:07,920 --> 01:03:10,280 Speaker 15: and that's probably a poor attitude to have and perhaps 1272 01:03:10,320 --> 01:03:13,320 Speaker 15: of Jason when Stanley's listening. I apologize, but it's just 1273 01:03:13,720 --> 01:03:15,880 Speaker 15: it's the real reality of the situation. At the moment, 1274 01:03:15,920 --> 01:03:18,040 Speaker 15: there is so much cricket. We've just come off the 1275 01:03:18,120 --> 01:03:20,440 Speaker 15: T twenty World Cup. Now we're trying to shoehorn a 1276 01:03:20,560 --> 01:03:24,760 Speaker 15: series in because we're always having to do something to 1277 01:03:24,880 --> 01:03:27,880 Speaker 15: appease that the big three in India, Australia and England. 1278 01:03:29,120 --> 01:03:30,040 Speaker 15: It's just a. 1279 01:03:29,840 --> 01:03:33,480 Speaker 2: Total okay, of course, at that's one. I'm going to 1280 01:03:33,480 --> 01:03:35,920 Speaker 2: stop you there right now and so and tell you 1281 01:03:35,960 --> 01:03:38,160 Speaker 2: that Jason Winstanley is not listening because I've just seen him. 1282 01:03:38,160 --> 01:03:39,600 Speaker 2: He's gone down to the pub, done the end of 1283 01:03:39,600 --> 01:03:43,200 Speaker 2: the lane. So you are safe. So here is the 1284 01:03:43,280 --> 01:03:46,280 Speaker 2: great story about crickets. Here is the great story about cricket. 1285 01:03:46,320 --> 01:03:49,040 Speaker 2: There may be a cricket ball shortage in England due 1286 01:03:49,080 --> 01:03:52,040 Speaker 2: to the Iran War, so English balls that they use 1287 01:03:52,120 --> 01:03:55,680 Speaker 2: English hides, but they're all sewed up in Pakistan by 1288 01:03:56,240 --> 01:03:59,800 Speaker 2: craftsmen or otherwise known as little kiddies child labor, who 1289 01:03:59,800 --> 01:04:02,680 Speaker 2: knows anyway, So because of the Pakistan thing in the 1290 01:04:02,720 --> 01:04:06,800 Speaker 2: around war, that's holding the supply of the dukes. So 1291 01:04:07,080 --> 01:04:09,600 Speaker 2: the interesting thing I find, Andrew, is that cuker Burroughs 1292 01:04:09,640 --> 01:04:13,000 Speaker 2: are made entirely in Melbourne. And so if there is 1293 01:04:13,040 --> 01:04:15,600 Speaker 2: a shortage of the dukes in England, could we actually 1294 01:04:15,680 --> 01:04:18,000 Speaker 2: use kooker Burroughs in England And would that be to 1295 01:04:18,040 --> 01:04:18,800 Speaker 2: our advantage? 1296 01:04:18,960 --> 01:04:21,920 Speaker 17: Discuss well, certainly to our advantage, we perhaps not to 1297 01:04:22,200 --> 01:04:24,720 Speaker 17: the past bowlers so much, but New Zealand is using 1298 01:04:24,760 --> 01:04:27,240 Speaker 17: them down in this part of the world. But yeah, 1299 01:04:27,240 --> 01:04:29,360 Speaker 17: the Duke ball, I mean, I think this is a 1300 01:04:29,400 --> 01:04:32,640 Speaker 17: fascinating yarn and it could take those across they reckon. 1301 01:04:32,640 --> 01:04:34,520 Speaker 17: They've got enough already though, and they only need to 1302 01:04:34,560 --> 01:04:36,360 Speaker 17: find what twelve plus a few more if they get 1303 01:04:36,400 --> 01:04:38,680 Speaker 17: past the ad overs in any of the innings for 1304 01:04:38,720 --> 01:04:42,280 Speaker 17: that three Test series. But just the fact that the 1305 01:04:42,360 --> 01:04:45,160 Speaker 17: supply chain issue and you have them coming from South 1306 01:04:45,240 --> 01:04:48,400 Speaker 17: Asia back to London, maybe they just need in this 1307 01:04:48,520 --> 01:04:51,720 Speaker 17: instance to find people and it's a skilled job to 1308 01:04:51,720 --> 01:04:54,440 Speaker 17: be able to sew four piece balls together in England, 1309 01:04:54,440 --> 01:04:57,640 Speaker 17: then all your problems are solved, Jodio. 1310 01:04:57,880 --> 01:04:59,600 Speaker 2: When we were discussing this, I said to Andy, well, 1311 01:04:59,800 --> 01:05:02,160 Speaker 2: you it serves you right England for using the slave labor. 1312 01:05:02,200 --> 01:05:04,240 Speaker 2: And then as he pointed out, they've been doing this 1313 01:05:04,280 --> 01:05:06,040 Speaker 2: for a couple of hundred years, and I went, yeah, well, 1314 01:05:06,040 --> 01:05:07,560 Speaker 2: I don't know if you know about the history of 1315 01:05:07,720 --> 01:05:12,840 Speaker 2: England in Southeast Asia about you know, yeah, they've been 1316 01:05:12,920 --> 01:05:16,360 Speaker 2: using them for two hundred years.

This is a big decision. How 1351 01:07:12,920 --> 01:07:14,360 Speaker 2: big of a decision was it for you? 1352 01:07:16,120 --> 01:07:20,960 Speaker 6: Yeah, it's definitely definitely a big decision. We had a 1353 01:07:21,000 --> 01:07:24,440 Speaker 6: few options. We needed some more production and we recently 1354 01:07:24,520 --> 01:07:28,520 Speaker 6: just had a successful crowdfund and raised a decent amount 1355 01:07:28,560 --> 01:07:31,960 Speaker 6: of money and the intent of that was to expand 1356 01:07:32,120 --> 01:07:38,560 Speaker 6: the production equipment in our new Plymouth brewery. And we 1357 01:07:38,560 --> 01:07:41,600 Speaker 6: we've been having some discussions with Sunshine over the last 1358 01:07:41,600 --> 01:07:43,840 Speaker 6: sort of you you also knowing that they were thinking 1359 01:07:43,840 --> 01:07:48,360 Speaker 6: about exiting, and after some further discussion, it just it 1360 01:07:48,440 --> 01:07:50,080 Speaker 6: made a lot of sense to just take over the 1361 01:07:50,120 --> 01:07:55,280 Speaker 6: brewery as a whole, really and so the production straight away. 1362 01:07:55,360 --> 01:07:58,760 Speaker 2: So the actual funding which was going to be used 1363 01:07:58,760 --> 01:08:01,560 Speaker 2: to expand Taraki uprations is now being used to buy 1364 01:08:01,680 --> 01:08:03,080 Speaker 2: Gisbone Sunshine Brewing. 1365 01:08:03,680 --> 01:08:05,040 Speaker 6: Yes, that's correct, Okay. 1366 01:08:06,400 --> 01:08:09,720 Speaker 2: Is the loosening of alcohol laws making this an easier 1367 01:08:09,720 --> 01:08:11,640 Speaker 2: decision for you because there's a future and beer? 1368 01:08:13,240 --> 01:08:17,559 Speaker 6: You know, yeah, it's it's certainly, you know, as as 1369 01:08:17,560 --> 01:08:22,720 Speaker 6: somebody operating in the industry, it definitely the was you know, 1370 01:08:22,960 --> 01:08:25,520 Speaker 6: you're looking at all of the sort of regulatory landscape 1371 01:08:25,560 --> 01:08:30,080 Speaker 6: and also the ever increasing excise taxes, and it does 1372 01:08:30,880 --> 01:08:33,400 Speaker 6: wait in the back of your mind that the you 1373 01:08:33,439 --> 01:08:36,880 Speaker 6: know that there seems to be a better policy around 1374 01:08:38,680 --> 01:08:44,080 Speaker 6: making lives difficult for alcohol producers, and it's it's really 1375 01:08:44,160 --> 01:08:48,000 Speaker 6: nice to see that that that that softening, and yeah, 1376 01:08:48,040 --> 01:08:51,519 Speaker 6: that definitely reduces some anxiety for sure. 1377 01:08:51,640 --> 01:08:53,880 Speaker 2: But there's also research out that shows the key weis 1378 01:08:53,920 --> 01:08:57,400 Speaker 2: are drinking less booze. Does that mean does that mean 1379 01:08:57,439 --> 01:08:58,240 Speaker 2: beer is threatened? 1380 01:08:59,680 --> 01:09:03,960 Speaker 6: I mean, you know, it's I mean, I don't think 1381 01:09:04,000 --> 01:09:06,519 Speaker 6: it's people are always going to drink beer, and I 1382 01:09:06,520 --> 01:09:08,559 Speaker 6: think people always going to drink gobles to some extent, 1383 01:09:08,600 --> 01:09:11,439 Speaker 6: and there might be some changing trends, but I mean 1384 01:09:11,439 --> 01:09:14,680 Speaker 6: there's always the market for beer is still pretty significant, 1385 01:09:14,760 --> 01:09:17,479 Speaker 6: so even even if it shrinks a little, we hope 1386 01:09:17,479 --> 01:09:19,240 Speaker 6: that people choose quality over quantity. 1387 01:09:19,280 --> 01:09:22,519 Speaker 2: Really exactly, let's talk a little bit about logistics, because 1388 01:09:22,520 --> 01:09:24,760 Speaker 2: you're in Tanta Lucky, and of course your other base 1389 01:09:24,880 --> 01:09:28,080 Speaker 2: is right over the other side in Gisboom, and we've 1390 01:09:28,080 --> 01:09:30,960 Speaker 2: got fuel prices going up, and you've got a big 1391 01:09:31,000 --> 01:09:33,240 Speaker 2: area to cover and to marriage and two cities to 1392 01:09:33,280 --> 01:09:36,000 Speaker 2: manage and all that. So is the logistics going to 1393 01:09:36,040 --> 01:09:36,559 Speaker 2: be difficult? 1394 01:09:38,439 --> 01:09:42,640 Speaker 6: It is a challenge. Yeah. I mean one thing, I 1395 01:09:42,680 --> 01:09:46,080 Speaker 6: do have an electric car which is really cheap to run, 1396 01:09:48,320 --> 01:09:51,200 Speaker 6: so that that definitely helps. But yeah, the cost of 1397 01:09:51,200 --> 01:09:53,680 Speaker 6: flights at the moment are going through the roof, so 1398 01:09:53,760 --> 01:09:58,360 Speaker 6: that's not that's not ideal, but yeah, it's just it's 1399 01:09:58,360 --> 01:10:01,360 Speaker 6: just the logistics and planning looking forward ahead. You know, 1400 01:10:01,400 --> 01:10:05,040 Speaker 6: if you if you book flights ahead of time and 1401 01:10:05,040 --> 01:10:08,040 Speaker 6: I have a good routine going, it's definitely differently not cost effective. 1402 01:10:08,160 --> 01:10:10,559 Speaker 2: But what about getting the beer out of Gisbourne. I mean, 1403 01:10:10,600 --> 01:10:12,479 Speaker 2: because of course if your price is going up, that 1404 01:10:12,560 --> 01:10:14,760 Speaker 2: means freak costs are going to go up. Or is 1405 01:10:14,800 --> 01:10:17,160 Speaker 2: the main market for Guzzy Gold in Gisbone. If you 1406 01:10:17,200 --> 01:10:18,920 Speaker 2: go to Gisbone, you drink Guzzi Gold. 1407 01:10:20,520 --> 01:10:23,559 Speaker 6: Well, there's definitely a really good following for Guzzy Gold 1408 01:10:23,560 --> 01:10:27,439 Speaker 6: and Gisbane, that's for sure. But actually, you know, it's 1409 01:10:27,439 --> 01:10:30,240 Speaker 6: the same. I mean, it's the same for any brewery. Really, 1410 01:10:30,240 --> 01:10:32,559 Speaker 6: it's it's made in one place and I do you know, 1411 01:10:32,720 --> 01:10:35,200 Speaker 6: and drunk all around the country for a lot of brands, 1412 01:10:35,200 --> 01:10:38,960 Speaker 6: And yeah, it's it's a it is a factor of 1413 01:10:39,000 --> 01:10:43,080 Speaker 6: course that just keeps heading into the margins. But yeah, 1414 01:10:43,120 --> 01:10:47,360 Speaker 6: we're hoping that everyone from you know, from the tip 1415 01:10:47,360 --> 01:10:49,720 Speaker 6: of the North Island to the bottom South Island are 1416 01:10:49,760 --> 01:10:51,519 Speaker 6: going to get into Guzzy Gold because I love I 1417 01:10:51,560 --> 01:10:54,040 Speaker 6: love it. That's partly why I wanted to take over 1418 01:10:54,080 --> 01:10:56,040 Speaker 6: the brand. A lot of people do too. 1419 01:10:56,600 --> 01:10:58,320 Speaker 2: I loved it so much i bought the company. I've 1420 01:10:58,320 --> 01:11:00,680 Speaker 2: heard that from a razor guy. But but here's the 1421 01:11:00,720 --> 01:11:03,040 Speaker 2: thing now, it's just it's that time of the night 1422 01:11:03,080 --> 01:11:06,639 Speaker 2: and people are starting to think beer will go down. Well, so, 1423 01:11:06,640 --> 01:11:09,080 Speaker 2: so what are the characteristics of Guzzy Gold that you 1424 01:11:09,200 --> 01:11:09,760 Speaker 2: like so much? 1425 01:11:11,320 --> 01:11:16,880 Speaker 6: It's the drinkability, really, it's really it's it's beautifully clean. Yeah, 1426 01:11:16,920 --> 01:11:20,479 Speaker 6: it's it's it's easy to have to have a to 1427 01:11:20,560 --> 01:11:24,599 Speaker 6: have a few responsibly, and yeah, you go down very 1428 01:11:24,600 --> 01:11:26,920 Speaker 6: easily and I could quite happily sit there and drink 1429 01:11:26,960 --> 01:11:29,320 Speaker 6: one after the other tells me to stop. 1430 01:11:29,479 --> 01:11:32,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, exactly right, Okay, Well, and it's a great 1431 01:11:32,360 --> 01:11:36,080 Speaker 2: after surf beer because legend has it that surfers Jeff 1432 01:11:36,160 --> 01:11:38,519 Speaker 2: Lumpy Logan and Jerry Maud came up with the idea 1433 01:11:38,520 --> 01:11:41,280 Speaker 2: of it catching waves in nineteen eighty nine, and so 1434 01:11:41,320 --> 01:11:44,080 Speaker 2: they made a post surfing beer You're a good surf 1435 01:11:44,120 --> 01:11:46,679 Speaker 2: and Taranaki as well. I think the Taranaki people would 1436 01:11:46,720 --> 01:11:49,160 Speaker 2: like a Gizzy Gold after a good surf back beach. 1437 01:11:49,880 --> 01:11:52,040 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think so.

So yeah, the Sunshine Brewery is very 1445 01:12:09,960 --> 01:12:13,160 Speaker 6: sort of larger focus. They've got a number of products 1446 01:12:13,439 --> 01:12:14,960 Speaker 6: that they tend to be on the sort of lighter, 1447 01:12:15,000 --> 01:12:17,759 Speaker 6: larger side, and I think we'll sort of keep driving 1448 01:12:18,200 --> 01:12:20,960 Speaker 6: the brand in that direction because that's what they're good at. 1449 01:12:21,240 --> 01:12:24,559 Speaker 6: And you know, Three Sisters probably more known for doing 1450 01:12:25,000 --> 01:12:29,280 Speaker 6: a bit more experimental types of brewing and more on 1451 01:12:29,320 --> 01:12:33,920 Speaker 6: sort of ales and ip as and hazes perhaps, so we'll, yeah, 1452 01:12:33,920 --> 01:12:36,080 Speaker 6: we'll keep the brand s distinct and keep them doing 1453 01:12:36,120 --> 01:12:36,640 Speaker 6: what they're good at. 1454 01:12:36,960 --> 01:12:37,120 Speaker 17: Well. 1455 01:12:37,200 --> 01:12:39,559 Speaker 2: Joe Emans from Three Sisters Bury, I'd like to thank 1456 01:12:39,560 --> 01:12:44,160 Speaker 2: you for your time today and cheers, cheers, Thanks, who 1457 01:12:44,360 --> 01:12:49,559 Speaker 2: feels like a beer?

Christopher Luckson's trip to the Pacific. 1471 01:13:36,240 --> 01:13:41,120 Speaker 18: Yeah, yeah, an interesting one. As you correctly say, Christopher 1472 01:13:41,160 --> 01:13:45,160 Speaker 18: Luckson has been given that MATTI title. But obviously there 1473 01:13:45,200 --> 01:13:47,160 Speaker 18: was a bit of sort of funny behind the scenes 1474 01:13:47,200 --> 01:13:51,599 Speaker 18: wrangling going on there with the Simon Prime Minister telling 1475 01:13:51,600 --> 01:13:55,200 Speaker 18: Simon Media it appears that that Christopher Lackson asked or 1476 01:13:55,240 --> 01:13:58,080 Speaker 18: it was reported that he asked for that title, which 1477 01:13:58,160 --> 01:14:00,760 Speaker 18: is obviously pretty embarrassing for Christopher lacks if that were 1478 01:14:00,760 --> 01:14:03,719 Speaker 18: to be true, very embarrassing to to to to actually 1479 01:14:03,800 --> 01:14:05,320 Speaker 18: ask for someone on government. 1480 01:14:05,040 --> 01:14:05,519 Speaker 6: To give you this. 1481 01:14:06,360 --> 01:14:10,080 Speaker 18: Now is as everyone will be aware subsequently that that 1482 01:14:10,200 --> 01:14:12,200 Speaker 18: was proved not to be the case. Christopher Luckson didn't 1483 01:14:12,200 --> 01:14:14,719 Speaker 18: actually ask for that title and it was sort of freely, 1484 01:14:15,120 --> 01:14:18,120 Speaker 18: freely given and the Samoan government had to put out 1485 01:14:18,160 --> 01:14:20,120 Speaker 18: a statement saying, look, you know that that that was 1486 01:14:20,160 --> 01:14:23,439 Speaker 18: just incorrect and and basically to retract those comments. I 1487 01:14:23,520 --> 01:14:27,479 Speaker 18: will effectively retract those comments. Now, there was a wee 1488 01:14:27,479 --> 01:14:29,160 Speaker 18: bit of talk on the on the New Zealand side 1489 01:14:29,200 --> 01:14:32,280 Speaker 18: we understand about whether or not we needed to. We 1490 01:14:32,400 --> 01:14:34,640 Speaker 18: we still wanted to go through with that ceremony on 1491 01:14:34,680 --> 01:14:37,920 Speaker 18: the New Zealand side because of the sort of thinking was, well, 1492 01:14:37,960 --> 01:14:41,519 Speaker 18: look this, this sort of situation has caused us a 1493 01:14:41,520 --> 01:14:43,880 Speaker 18: bit of embarrassment and and made us look a bit silly. 1494 01:14:43,880 --> 01:14:45,479 Speaker 18: Should we really go through with it? They did, of 1495 01:14:45,520 --> 01:14:49,160 Speaker 18: course go through with it. No hiccups hacups there really 1496 01:14:49,760 --> 01:14:53,160 Speaker 18: apart from the fact that that that that deliberation leaked 1497 01:14:53,200 --> 01:14:56,280 Speaker 18: down to the media as well. But but certainly quite 1498 01:14:56,320 --> 01:14:57,960 Speaker 18: an odd and an odd way to be welcome to a 1499 01:14:57,960 --> 01:15:01,120 Speaker 18: country with incident that thembarrasses you are we but yeah, 1500 01:15:01,120 --> 01:15:03,920 Speaker 18: it's not really well no, it's not really monarchitanger, I guess. 1501 01:15:04,439 --> 01:15:06,640 Speaker 2: Yeah. But the problem is that then reflected on the 1502 01:15:06,640 --> 01:15:09,080 Speaker 2: media because everyone said, oh, there's the media raking up 1503 01:15:09,120 --> 01:15:11,320 Speaker 2: some muck about Christopher Luckson. But you're saying that the 1504 01:15:11,360 --> 01:15:14,160 Speaker 2: original source of the original story that Christopher Luckson asked 1505 01:15:14,160 --> 01:15:18,400 Speaker 2: for them to actually came from the Simons was there was. 1506 01:15:18,400 --> 01:15:20,680 Speaker 18: The Samoan governments quoted in the samo and in the 1507 01:15:20,680 --> 01:15:22,840 Speaker 18: Samoan media. And I mean to be honest, if it 1508 01:15:22,840 --> 01:15:24,599 Speaker 18: were me writing that story. I would have just checked 1509 01:15:24,600 --> 01:15:26,559 Speaker 18: with Christopher Luckson's office to make sure that what I 1510 01:15:26,600 --> 01:15:28,960 Speaker 18: was reading on the Saman media was correct. I think 1511 01:15:29,240 --> 01:15:32,960 Speaker 18: I think the fact that that that that Christopher Luckson's 1512 01:15:33,000 --> 01:15:35,280 Speaker 18: office clearly wasn't given enough time to respond to that 1513 01:15:35,400 --> 01:15:37,720 Speaker 18: story in the SAMA, I think that's probably an era. 1514 01:15:38,320 --> 01:15:40,280 Speaker 18: But we fear if you're in New Zealand media, it's 1515 01:15:40,400 --> 01:15:44,759 Speaker 18: very normal to quote foreign media talking about their own leaders. 1516 01:15:44,840 --> 01:15:47,240 Speaker 18: I mean, at the moment, every New Zealand media website 1517 01:15:47,280 --> 01:15:49,400 Speaker 18: is right and running. You know, Donald Trump told the 1518 01:15:49,400 --> 01:15:52,400 Speaker 18: New York Times none of us really know whether he's 1519 01:15:52,400 --> 01:15:52,920 Speaker 18: actually said it. 1520 01:15:53,000 --> 01:15:55,880 Speaker 2: Yes, normally the news is now. You report the news 1521 01:15:56,479 --> 01:16:00,200 Speaker 2: because that's what's been reported now and as you say, 1522 01:16:00,200 --> 01:16:02,759 Speaker 2: from the Samoan government, from a samo And media source. 1523 01:16:02,760 --> 01:16:06,040 Speaker 2: So you report that because that's what has happened. If 1524 01:16:06,080 --> 01:16:08,519 Speaker 2: in the fullness of time it proves that that is false, 1525 01:16:08,800 --> 01:16:10,800 Speaker 2: that doesn't mean you actually lied in any way, shape 1526 01:16:10,840 --> 01:16:13,080 Speaker 2: or form. It just means that the story got fully 1527 01:16:13,240 --> 01:16:16,720 Speaker 2: fleshed out. So yeah, funny old saying meanwhile, how was 1528 01:16:16,720 --> 01:16:20,599 Speaker 2: the how was the Pacific? Because if this had happened 1529 01:16:20,640 --> 01:16:23,080 Speaker 2: six months ago, we would have been talking about China's 1530 01:16:23,640 --> 01:16:27,360 Speaker 2: inroads into the Pacific region. But this time though, we 1531 01:16:27,360 --> 01:16:29,240 Speaker 2: were really all talking about the fuel crisis. 1532 01:16:30,960 --> 01:16:33,680 Speaker 18: Yeah, and those Pacific economies are quite vulnerable to the 1533 01:16:33,680 --> 01:16:35,800 Speaker 18: fuel crisis. The cost of living is already pretty high 1534 01:16:35,800 --> 01:16:39,479 Speaker 18: in the Pacific because they have to import even more 1535 01:16:39,520 --> 01:16:43,120 Speaker 18: stuff than we import, so they're very, very vulnerable to 1536 01:16:43,160 --> 01:16:45,960 Speaker 18: those high fuel prices. So that that is something they did, 1537 01:16:46,040 --> 01:16:47,880 Speaker 18: They did discuss over there, and actual, you're right about 1538 01:16:47,880 --> 01:16:51,120 Speaker 18: the China situation. Juliet Abel our reporter on the ground. 1539 01:16:51,360 --> 01:16:53,360 Speaker 18: You can read her stuff is still up on the Herald, 1540 01:16:53,800 --> 01:16:56,880 Speaker 18: her dispatches from that trip, and it is interesting that 1541 01:16:56,880 --> 01:16:59,000 Speaker 18: there certainly is a very large Chinese presence in the 1542 01:16:59,040 --> 01:17:02,280 Speaker 18: Pacific now. So that was that was certainly remarked upon. 1543 01:17:02,400 --> 01:17:05,040 Speaker 18: But as you say, the Iran crisis has overshadowed everything, 1544 01:17:05,080 --> 01:17:07,479 Speaker 18: and that really was front and center of the trip. 1545 01:17:07,760 --> 01:17:11,400 Speaker 2: We started with Jade Paul writing in a Facebook page 1546 01:17:12,280 --> 01:17:15,960 Speaker 2: some accusations and allegations about Chris Hipkins, and then there 1547 01:17:16,000 --> 01:17:17,280 Speaker 2: was a fall out for that. By the way, that 1548 01:17:17,320 --> 01:17:20,639 Speaker 2: post was taken down after an hour. However, the next 1549 01:17:20,720 --> 01:17:22,800 Speaker 2: day she was confirming that everything she said and that 1550 01:17:22,960 --> 01:17:25,639 Speaker 2: was true. What did you make of it. 1551 01:17:27,280 --> 01:17:29,559 Speaker 18: Yes, it's a funny old one. So yes, she made 1552 01:17:29,560 --> 01:17:33,840 Speaker 18: those those allegations, and that hasn't provided evidence for those allegations. 1553 01:17:33,880 --> 01:17:38,200 Speaker 18: Chris Hippkins has denied those allegations. So so that's where 1554 01:17:38,320 --> 01:17:41,200 Speaker 18: where the story of that is at. It'll be really 1555 01:17:41,200 --> 01:17:43,240 Speaker 18: interesting to see what the public decides. You know, this 1556 01:17:43,280 --> 01:17:45,280 Speaker 18: has really gone to that to the court of public opinion. 1557 01:17:45,320 --> 01:17:49,240 Speaker 18: Now there will be polls in the coming weeks, and 1558 01:17:49,240 --> 01:17:51,280 Speaker 18: and your guess is as good as mine as to 1559 01:17:51,280 --> 01:17:53,760 Speaker 18: whether the public will look at that and think, you 1560 01:17:53,800 --> 01:17:55,640 Speaker 18: know what, I don't like what I what I what 1561 01:17:55,680 --> 01:17:57,559 Speaker 18: I've read on social media, I don't like what I've seen, 1562 01:17:58,240 --> 01:18:00,840 Speaker 18: So I think I might be looking changing my vite 1563 01:18:00,920 --> 01:18:03,160 Speaker 18: or they'll decide. You know what, Chris Upkins, I actually 1564 01:18:03,160 --> 01:18:08,639 Speaker 18: trust your version of the story, and I'm sticking with There's. 1565 01:18:08,040 --> 01:18:11,240 Speaker 2: A perception that Chris has a truth crisis in a 1566 01:18:11,280 --> 01:18:14,519 Speaker 2: way because so many people believe that he misled people 1567 01:18:14,560 --> 01:18:17,479 Speaker 2: over COVID. You know, so you know what I. 1568 01:18:17,360 --> 01:18:22,519 Speaker 18: Mean, Well, yeah, I think that sort of factors into us. 1569 01:18:22,520 --> 01:18:29,679 Speaker 18: Whether people's people's ability to or people's perception of whether 1570 01:18:29,720 --> 01:18:34,880 Speaker 18: they trust him will ultimately determine whether they whether or 1571 01:18:34,920 --> 01:18:37,360 Speaker 18: not they trust him on this issue as well. You know, 1572 01:18:37,400 --> 01:18:39,720 Speaker 18: some New Zealanders would equally say they did trust him 1573 01:18:39,760 --> 01:18:42,200 Speaker 18: during COVID, and those New Zealanders, one would imagine, would 1574 01:18:42,200 --> 01:18:45,000 Speaker 18: be likely to perhaps trust his version of events in 1575 01:18:45,040 --> 01:18:49,839 Speaker 18: this in this situation. So really it'll be I honestly, 1576 01:18:49,840 --> 01:18:52,519 Speaker 18: you don't have any idea about whether or not this 1577 01:18:52,600 --> 01:18:56,320 Speaker 18: will impact his chances and Labour's chances, because it's such 1578 01:18:56,320 --> 01:18:59,000 Speaker 18: an unusual It's really an unprecedented thing to have happened. 1579 01:18:59,520 --> 01:19:01,479 Speaker 18: So it will be really interesting as the nexcess the 1580 01:19:01,479 --> 01:19:03,840 Speaker 18: first few poles come out just to see what New 1581 01:19:03,920 --> 01:19:04,720 Speaker 18: Zealanders make it. 1582 01:19:04,800 --> 01:19:06,719 Speaker 2: Yes, it will, and I thank you so much Thomas Coglin. 1583 01:19:06,800 --> 01:19:08,600 Speaker 2: And that is a very important point. No matter what 1584 01:19:08,640 --> 01:19:10,599 Speaker 2: has said on the radio, at the end of the day, 1585 01:19:10,640 --> 01:19:13,200 Speaker 2: you have your say because you have a vote, and 1586 01:19:13,240 --> 01:19:15,400 Speaker 2: whether it's a vote in an opinion poll which is 1587 01:19:15,439 --> 01:19:18,160 Speaker 2: just a sort of an interim kind of vote, or 1588 01:19:18,200 --> 01:19:20,760 Speaker 2: whether it of course is the original the final vote 1589 01:19:20,760 --> 01:19:23,879 Speaker 2: that happens November twenty six, you will make your decision 1590 01:19:24,040 --> 01:19:28,559 Speaker 2: on Christopher Hipkins there and you do not need people 1591 01:19:28,680 --> 01:19:31,920 Speaker 2: like me to tell you what to think. It is 1592 01:19:32,120 --> 01:19:33,040 Speaker 2: six twenty three. 1593 01:19:34,439 --> 01:19:38,160 Speaker 1: Whether it's macro micro or just plain economics. It's all 1594 01:19:38,240 --> 01:19:42,280 Speaker 1: on the Business Hour with Andrew Dickens and Mas insurance 1595 01:19:42,320 --> 01:19:43,200 Speaker 1: and investments. 1596 01:19:43,360 --> 01:19:47,559 Speaker 4: Your futures in good hands, News talks heavy.

Now he's 1603 01:20:12,880 --> 01:20:14,880 Speaker 2: the thing. Normally the interview, it doesn't storm off. It's 1604 01:20:14,880 --> 01:20:17,679 Speaker 2: the guys being interviewed. So what was this about? Harrison 1605 01:20:17,720 --> 01:20:20,640 Speaker 2: was being interviewed. By the way, Harrison is the abandoned 1606 01:20:20,640 --> 01:20:23,200 Speaker 2: son of a former English rugby international t twenty three 1607 01:20:23,240 --> 01:20:27,040 Speaker 2: years old. Harrison was being interviewed following his appearances in 1608 01:20:27,280 --> 01:20:31,439 Speaker 2: Louis Therou's new documentary Inside the Manisphere. The documentary followed 1609 01:20:31,479 --> 01:20:34,599 Speaker 2: a number of social media influences like HS Tickie Talkie 1610 01:20:34,840 --> 01:20:37,320 Speaker 2: who share some fairly extreme views. 1611 01:20:37,720 --> 01:20:38,760 Speaker 14: Do your homophobic? 1612 01:20:38,800 --> 01:20:41,240 Speaker 3: I'm not homophobic now I have a gay mate. 1613 01:20:41,280 --> 01:20:42,840 Speaker 14: But you said that if you had a son and 1614 01:20:42,880 --> 01:20:44,600 Speaker 14: he was gay discerned. 1615 01:20:46,720 --> 01:20:47,760 Speaker 4: That's not Homophobert. 1616 01:20:48,360 --> 01:20:49,960 Speaker 2: So there we go. That's the voice of a chess 1617 01:20:50,000 --> 01:20:53,040 Speaker 2: tickie talking in. About fifteen minutes into the Peers Morgan interview, 1618 01:20:53,080 --> 01:20:56,280 Speaker 2: Peers began to get all defensive when Harrison brought his 1619 01:20:56,400 --> 01:21:01,280 Speaker 2: name up being mentioned in the Epstein files. 1620 01:21:00,080 --> 01:21:07,519 Speaker 3: To Myron and all the others, your JOm comparing you 1621 01:21:07,600 --> 01:21:09,280 Speaker 3: to Epstein.

And Peers seem to keep 1623 01:21:11,400 --> 01:21:14,599 Speaker 2: us call for a while until Harrison produced a picture 1624 01:21:14,680 --> 01:21:18,120 Speaker 2: of Pears's wife on the edge of a pool and 1625 01:21:18,160 --> 01:21:22,000 Speaker 2: that brought some unwanted attention a few years ago. And snap, 1626 01:21:22,040 --> 01:21:23,120 Speaker 2: Peers listen. 1627 01:21:23,400 --> 01:21:24,640 Speaker 3: So I don't know why you come on and you 1628 01:21:24,640 --> 01:21:26,639 Speaker 3: talk like your holier than now. As soon as you're 1629 01:21:26,640 --> 01:21:29,519 Speaker 3: all right, evations are open. 1630 01:21:29,560 --> 01:21:31,040 Speaker 4: All right, let's cush your chain. 1631 01:21:31,120 --> 01:21:31,240 Speaker 1: Bo. 1632 01:21:31,640 --> 01:21:34,360 Speaker 2: That'sh your girls cooked. 1633 01:21:34,800 --> 01:21:35,240 Speaker 13: You know what. 1634 01:21:35,320 --> 01:21:38,000 Speaker 14: I'm not doing this, sorry, guys, it's pointless. 1635 01:21:38,520 --> 01:21:41,240 Speaker 2: There we go cooked an offee wing. Anyway. The documentary 1636 01:21:41,400 --> 01:21:44,559 Speaker 2: Into the Matosphere exposes the dark underbelly of so called 1637 01:21:44,600 --> 01:21:47,400 Speaker 2: alpha male content often consumed by teenage boys. Now I 1638 01:21:47,479 --> 01:21:49,840 Speaker 2: have watched that documentary this week, and at the same 1639 01:21:49,840 --> 01:21:52,720 Speaker 2: time I've also been watching the Netflix documentary series all 1640 01:21:52,760 --> 01:21:56,479 Speaker 2: about the Murdoch family, the dynasty there James Murdoch and 1641 01:21:56,520 --> 01:22:00,479 Speaker 2: that said, the measure of a great news service is 1642 01:22:00,600 --> 01:22:03,080 Speaker 2: its profit. In other words, we'll say anything as long 1643 01:22:03,120 --> 01:22:05,320 Speaker 2: as we're making money. If we're making money, will say anything, 1644 01:22:06,080 --> 01:22:08,840 Speaker 2: get it. HS Tiki Talkie says the same thing. I 1645 01:22:08,880 --> 01:22:10,880 Speaker 2: will say anything to get clicks so that I can 1646 01:22:10,920 --> 01:22:13,240 Speaker 2: sell those clicks on to make money. It's all about me. 1647 01:22:13,320 --> 01:22:16,479 Speaker 2: I don't care my effect on society is HS Tiki 1648 01:22:16,560 --> 01:22:18,519 Speaker 2: talking so different from the Murdocks. 1649 01:22:18,880 --> 01:22:27,959 Speaker 1: Really, everything from SMEs to the big corporates, The Business 1650 01:22:27,960 --> 01:22:32,280 Speaker 1: Hour with Andrew Dickens and their's insurance and investments, your 1651 01:22:32,320 --> 01:22:35,160 Speaker 1: futures in good hands, used talks'd be? 1652 01:22:46,040 --> 01:22:48,960 Speaker 2: Is Harry's styles coming to New Zealand? Is this why 1653 01:22:48,960 --> 01:22:52,720 Speaker 2: we're playing it? No, we don't know yet. We do 1654 01:22:52,840 --> 01:22:54,920 Speaker 2: know this week Robbie William's coming to Eden Park, so 1655 01:22:54,920 --> 01:22:57,080 Speaker 2: that's a good thing. Thank you so much for choosing 1656 01:22:57,120 --> 01:22:59,320 Speaker 2: the program. I'm Andrew Dickens. Thank you for listening to 1657 01:22:59,400 --> 01:23:02,160 Speaker 2: us rather than watching the television news. But I have 1658 01:23:02,200 --> 01:23:04,400 Speaker 2: a text to who's been watching the television news for you? 1659 01:23:05,200 --> 01:23:07,760 Speaker 2: And my text says watching my favorite TV and sad 1660 01:23:07,840 --> 01:23:10,120 Speaker 2: news this evening, I would ask why the so called 1661 01:23:10,200 --> 01:23:13,360 Speaker 2: journalists are not asking oil companies a real questions, which is, 1662 01:23:13,479 --> 01:23:16,280 Speaker 2: why are the oil companies putting up the prices now 1663 01:23:16,680 --> 01:23:20,280 Speaker 2: when we will likely be still be consuming shipments shipped 1664 01:23:20,400 --> 01:23:24,240 Speaker 2: before all these problems that were bought, of course, at 1665 01:23:24,240 --> 01:23:27,519 Speaker 2: a lower price. The textas says, prices should not be 1666 01:23:27,520 --> 01:23:34,719 Speaker 2: put up opportunistically. Excuse me, I've lost my Prices should 1667 01:23:34,720 --> 01:23:37,559 Speaker 2: not be put up opportunistically until they actually get into 1668 01:23:38,120 --> 01:23:41,400 Speaker 2: use of the higher cost shipments. Oil companies need to 1669 01:23:41,400 --> 01:23:45,000 Speaker 2: stop opportunistically putting up prices before this point and then 1670 01:23:45,040 --> 01:23:46,760 Speaker 2: swallowing the margin. And that's a fair point, and I 1671 01:23:46,800 --> 01:23:49,160 Speaker 2: think we all feel the same about that, and they 1672 01:23:49,240 --> 01:23:52,000 Speaker 2: argue about it, but remember, oil companies are not your friend. 1673 01:23:53,360 --> 01:23:55,439 Speaker 2: Oil companies are They're a bit like the Murdocks. They 1674 01:23:55,439 --> 01:23:57,439 Speaker 2: are a bit like HS tiki toki. All they care 1675 01:23:57,479 --> 01:23:59,439 Speaker 2: about is the profit and they don't care how they 1676 01:23:59,479 --> 01:24:02,559 Speaker 2: get it. It was oil companies that own Marson Point 1677 01:24:02,600 --> 01:24:06,799 Speaker 2: Refinery that closed it. If we wanted to keep Marson 1678 01:24:06,840 --> 01:24:09,360 Speaker 2: Point Refinery then the government would have had to either 1679 01:24:09,479 --> 01:24:12,680 Speaker 2: nationalize it or subsidize it. And the estimates for that 1680 01:24:12,840 --> 01:24:17,160 Speaker 2: was anything between four and seven billion dollars. Do you 1681 01:24:17,200 --> 01:24:19,559 Speaker 2: think that would have been wise money to have spent 1682 01:24:20,479 --> 01:24:23,599 Speaker 2: when Shane Jones and win some Peters and even Nikola 1683 01:24:23,600 --> 01:24:27,759 Speaker 2: Willis this week said that was economic vandalism by labor. 1684 01:24:28,479 --> 01:24:31,000 Speaker 2: Were they saying we would spend four to seven billion 1685 01:24:31,000 --> 01:24:34,600 Speaker 2: dollars to keep a kind of out of date refinery 1686 01:24:35,080 --> 01:24:40,160 Speaker 2: which was still dependent on imported oil in action? So 1687 01:24:40,439 --> 01:24:43,519 Speaker 2: they never answered that, but they used it for political means. 1688 01:24:43,520 --> 01:24:46,360 Speaker 2: But remember here's the thing. Oil companies are not your friend. 1689 01:24:46,960 --> 01:24:50,960 Speaker 2: Soon as you learn that, the better, Andrew dickens and 1690 01:24:51,000 --> 01:24:52,960 Speaker 2: it's time to go to Asia and join us. As 1691 01:24:53,000 --> 01:24:54,360 Speaker 2: Peter Lewis, good evening to you. 1692 01:24:54,400 --> 01:24:56,519 Speaker 14: Peter, Good evening, Andrew. 1693 01:24:56,760 --> 01:25:00,400 Speaker 2: So Donald Trump has gotten told China, Japan and NATO 1694 01:25:00,520 --> 01:25:03,520 Speaker 2: that really they need to help securing the Strait of Hormuz. 1695 01:25:04,240 --> 01:25:07,360 Speaker 2: Now you are in Asia, and I'd like to ask you, honestly, 1696 01:25:07,880 --> 01:25:10,519 Speaker 2: what is it for China to secure the Strait of 1697 01:25:10,520 --> 01:25:13,360 Speaker 2: Hormuz since they're the only guys who are getting oil 1698 01:25:13,479 --> 01:25:14,280 Speaker 2: through the straits? 1699 01:25:15,360 --> 01:25:19,080 Speaker 14: Absolutely nothing is absolutely the right point, Andrew. I mean, 1700 01:25:19,120 --> 01:25:23,639 Speaker 14: there is no way that China is going to come 1701 01:25:23,640 --> 01:25:26,600 Speaker 14: to the rescue of the US, and we're going to 1702 01:25:26,640 --> 01:25:31,240 Speaker 14: see Chinese warships helping the US secure vessels through the 1703 01:25:31,280 --> 01:25:35,599 Speaker 14: Straits of Hormus. This is the classic example which China 1704 01:25:35,640 --> 01:25:38,679 Speaker 14: knows very well. Don't interrupt your enemy while they're making 1705 01:25:38,720 --> 01:25:41,679 Speaker 14: a mistake. I mean, he Donald Trump has dug himself 1706 01:25:41,720 --> 01:25:46,000 Speaker 14: here into an enormous hole, and China is certainly not 1707 01:25:46,040 --> 01:25:50,519 Speaker 14: going to help help battle him out. And what we 1708 01:25:50,600 --> 01:25:52,559 Speaker 14: are going to see is more of what we've seen, 1709 01:25:52,560 --> 01:25:57,320 Speaker 14: for example, India do, which is negotiate deals with Iran 1710 01:25:57,479 --> 01:26:00,800 Speaker 14: for their vessels to pass through the Strait of hor Moves. 1711 01:26:00,800 --> 01:26:03,280 Speaker 14: And you have to remember they tend to hewe very 1712 01:26:03,320 --> 01:26:07,480 Speaker 14: closely to the Iranian coastline as they go through that passageway. 1713 01:26:08,320 --> 01:26:10,760 Speaker 14: And India has done a deal got some of its 1714 01:26:10,840 --> 01:26:15,559 Speaker 14: vessels through other nations like China. Other countries out here 1715 01:26:16,120 --> 01:26:20,160 Speaker 14: will also do the same. Now, one of the countries 1716 01:26:20,200 --> 01:26:23,760 Speaker 14: that he has criticized well, I said, ought to be 1717 01:26:23,840 --> 01:26:28,439 Speaker 14: providing help is Japan. And as it happens, Japanese Prime 1718 01:26:28,439 --> 01:26:32,439 Speaker 14: Minister Sanae Takeiichi is in Washington, and we saw the 1719 01:26:32,479 --> 01:26:37,080 Speaker 14: TV pictures yesterday of her sitting in that famous chair 1720 01:26:37,840 --> 01:26:41,519 Speaker 14: to the right of Donald Trump, where extraordinary things tend 1721 01:26:41,520 --> 01:26:45,400 Speaker 14: to get said to sitting presidents and prime ministers. Yesterday 1722 01:26:45,560 --> 01:26:48,759 Speaker 14: was no exception, because, first of all, Donald Trump thanked 1723 01:26:48,800 --> 01:26:53,680 Speaker 14: her for supporting the US in the war, and he 1724 01:26:53,800 --> 01:26:57,080 Speaker 14: made a point once again of criticizing NATO allies who 1725 01:26:57,160 --> 01:27:01,320 Speaker 14: hadn't well. Japanese Prime Minister Takichi has done no such thing. 1726 01:27:01,479 --> 01:27:06,920 Speaker 14: She's made it very clear that while she has criticized 1727 01:27:07,400 --> 01:27:11,719 Speaker 14: Iran for attacking its neighbors, she's been very careful about 1728 01:27:11,760 --> 01:27:16,439 Speaker 14: steering clear of saying anything to support the war in Iran. 1729 01:27:16,560 --> 01:27:20,400 Speaker 14: And she certainly hasn't sent any warships to the Strait 1730 01:27:20,439 --> 01:27:24,760 Speaker 14: of Hormus and has no intention of doing so because 1731 01:27:25,360 --> 01:27:31,599 Speaker 14: of Japan's pacifist constitution, which strictly prevents Japan's sending military 1732 01:27:31,600 --> 01:27:34,679 Speaker 14: assets to war zones. Now, I don't know if John 1733 01:27:35,120 --> 01:27:39,800 Speaker 14: Trump realizes that that constitution was written by America after 1734 01:27:39,840 --> 01:27:43,639 Speaker 14: the Second World War. But then if that wasn't enough, 1735 01:27:44,360 --> 01:27:45,880 Speaker 14: he said what I think must be one of the 1736 01:27:45,920 --> 01:27:50,280 Speaker 14: most extraordinary things he's ever said to a sitting prime 1737 01:27:50,280 --> 01:27:54,519 Speaker 14: minister or presidents, out of a whole litany of extraordinary things. 1738 01:27:54,920 --> 01:27:59,360 Speaker 14: A reporter asked President Trump why he didn't inform allies 1739 01:27:59,600 --> 01:28:03,080 Speaker 14: in New York and Asia before the attack on Iran. 1740 01:28:03,760 --> 01:28:07,960 Speaker 14: God Donald Trump responded, we wanted surprise, and then he 1741 01:28:08,040 --> 01:28:11,360 Speaker 14: turned to Takeiichi and says, who knows better about surprise 1742 01:28:11,439 --> 01:28:14,839 Speaker 14: than Japan? Why didn't you tell me about Pearl Harbor? 1743 01:28:15,280 --> 01:28:17,720 Speaker 14: He said, you believe in surprise, I think much more 1744 01:28:17,800 --> 01:28:22,280 Speaker 14: so than us. It's hard to imagine a more extraordinary 1745 01:28:22,280 --> 01:28:26,160 Speaker 14: thing that could be said to a sitting Japanese Prime 1746 01:28:26,160 --> 01:28:28,880 Speaker 14: minister than raising in front of her and in front 1747 01:28:28,880 --> 01:28:29,760 Speaker 14: of the world's. 1748 01:28:29,439 --> 01:28:31,120 Speaker 4: Press Pearl Harbor. 1749 01:28:31,720 --> 01:28:34,240 Speaker 14: But there we go. This seems to be the way 1750 01:28:34,240 --> 01:28:36,519 Speaker 14: of the White House these days. 1751 01:28:36,960 --> 01:28:39,679 Speaker 2: Well, the Trump apologists, many of whom have actually takes 1752 01:28:39,720 --> 01:28:41,960 Speaker 2: to me see, Well, people just don't understand Donald's sense 1753 01:28:42,000 --> 01:28:43,640 Speaker 2: of humor. He was going for a laugh and he 1754 01:28:43,680 --> 01:28:46,000 Speaker 2: wasn't mean to insult. But at the same time, it 1755 01:28:46,080 --> 01:28:47,800 Speaker 2: was a fairly formed thing to say. And I do 1756 01:28:47,920 --> 01:28:51,840 Speaker 2: agree with that. What are by the way Asian country 1757 01:28:51,920 --> 01:28:55,439 Speaker 2: is doing to save fuel? Because this is a question 1758 01:28:56,200 --> 01:28:58,280 Speaker 2: that the entire world is asking, So what are the 1759 01:28:58,280 --> 01:28:59,000 Speaker 2: Asians up to? 1760 01:29:00,280 --> 01:29:03,280 Speaker 14: Well, this is a very big issue for Asian countries 1761 01:29:03,360 --> 01:29:07,920 Speaker 14: because a lot of their oil and energy does come 1762 01:29:07,960 --> 01:29:11,439 Speaker 14: through the Strait of hormus, and what they absolutely want 1763 01:29:11,479 --> 01:29:16,559 Speaker 14: to avoid at all costs is this energy crisis turning 1764 01:29:16,600 --> 01:29:22,000 Speaker 14: into a general inflationary surge which drives up prices across 1765 01:29:22,280 --> 01:29:26,360 Speaker 14: a whole range of goods and services and ends up 1766 01:29:26,439 --> 01:29:30,840 Speaker 14: derailing Asian countries, forcing central banks out here in the 1767 01:29:31,280 --> 01:29:36,320 Speaker 14: region to have to raise interest rates, derailing the economies 1768 01:29:36,880 --> 01:29:39,439 Speaker 14: of those countries. So there's a whole range of things 1769 01:29:39,800 --> 01:29:42,440 Speaker 14: going on at the moment. So in Philippines and Thailand, 1770 01:29:42,760 --> 01:29:46,400 Speaker 14: government offices have been closed, staff have been told that 1771 01:29:46,479 --> 01:29:49,760 Speaker 14: they have to work from home at least one day 1772 01:29:49,800 --> 01:29:53,599 Speaker 14: a week. In Sri Lanka they've declared every Wednesday now 1773 01:29:53,680 --> 01:29:59,400 Speaker 14: a public holiday try and conserve fuel, and motorsts there 1774 01:29:59,439 --> 01:30:03,759 Speaker 14: now require to register for a national fuel pass, which 1775 01:30:03,880 --> 01:30:08,960 Speaker 14: rations the amount of fuel that people can buy. In 1776 01:30:09,000 --> 01:30:14,559 Speaker 14: some countries like Japan and South Korea, they're introducing sort 1777 01:30:14,600 --> 01:30:18,680 Speaker 14: of fuel subsidies to try and refund to consumers and 1778 01:30:18,760 --> 01:30:23,160 Speaker 14: motorists some of the costs of these rising fuel prices. 1779 01:30:23,200 --> 01:30:28,360 Speaker 14: And as you mentioned just before this segment, oil companies 1780 01:30:28,400 --> 01:30:32,439 Speaker 14: are pointing up prices very very quickly, and you know, 1781 01:30:32,479 --> 01:30:37,840 Speaker 14: they're still securing oil from before the crisis actually started. 1782 01:30:38,040 --> 01:30:41,040 Speaker 14: But Asian governments really do need to take urgent measures 1783 01:30:41,560 --> 01:30:44,880 Speaker 14: because there is big risks to their economies from this 1784 01:30:46,000 --> 01:30:46,599 Speaker 14: good stuff. 1785 01:30:46,680 --> 01:30:48,639 Speaker 2: And I thank you so much. Peter lewis out of Asia. 1786 01:30:48,720 --> 01:30:51,320 Speaker 2: It is now sixteen minutes to seven. Colin sent mea 1787 01:30:51,400 --> 01:30:53,719 Speaker 2: tick saying, Andrew, the reason why the prices of fuel 1788 01:30:53,720 --> 01:30:56,400 Speaker 2: have gone up straight away has been answered by a 1789 01:30:57,240 --> 01:31:01,040 Speaker 2: number of times by industry executives on Zibbie shows over 1790 01:31:01,080 --> 01:31:04,320 Speaker 2: the last week. Their explanations have been very credible and 1791 01:31:04,520 --> 01:31:08,000 Speaker 2: explained the reason why. Your answer, I didn't give an answer, 1792 01:31:08,000 --> 01:31:11,040 Speaker 2: but I gave a feeling your answer is only spreading falsehoods. 1793 01:31:11,080 --> 01:31:14,200 Speaker 2: Please share the exact reason wellcame. I'm perfectly aware of 1794 01:31:14,240 --> 01:31:16,640 Speaker 2: the exact reason, and that's because oil companies charge the 1795 01:31:16,640 --> 01:31:20,760 Speaker 2: price of stock replacement, not the previous purchase price. But 1796 01:31:20,880 --> 01:31:22,680 Speaker 2: that doesn't mean that we can't feel that we're being 1797 01:31:22,760 --> 01:31:24,639 Speaker 2: ripped off about it. And if the oil company really 1798 01:31:24,720 --> 01:31:26,559 Speaker 2: cared a little bit, they might have a head on margins, 1799 01:31:26,600 --> 01:31:28,439 Speaker 2: because I don't think I don't know if you've noticed, 1800 01:31:28,520 --> 01:31:31,400 Speaker 2: they make an awful lot of money over the little bit, 1801 01:31:31,439 --> 01:31:33,400 Speaker 2: and they would like may have the loyalty of the 1802 01:31:33,439 --> 01:31:36,360 Speaker 2: New Zealand customers. So I do understand it. But what 1803 01:31:36,439 --> 01:31:39,320 Speaker 2: I actually said is we all feel the same. We 1804 01:31:39,400 --> 01:31:42,640 Speaker 2: all feel that they're enjoying a little bit of profiteering 1805 01:31:43,240 --> 01:31:45,760 Speaker 2: at the time, you know which they will use that 1806 01:31:45,800 --> 01:31:47,920 Speaker 2: money to buy the extra stocks that are coming in 1807 01:31:48,000 --> 01:31:51,680 Speaker 2: the replacement stock. I get that, but you know but 1808 01:31:51,720 --> 01:31:53,479 Speaker 2: I thank you. Now still to come on the program. 1809 01:31:53,560 --> 01:31:56,240 Speaker 2: We've got Gavin Gray gave and Gray out of the 1810 01:31:56,320 --> 01:31:59,600 Speaker 2: UK and talking about Europe.

Sorry I do 1819 01:32:27,840 --> 01:32:29,840 Speaker 2: too many shows over too many time zones, but there 1820 01:32:29,840 --> 01:32:33,519 Speaker 2: we go. All right, okay, okay, okay, thankfully we're not 1821 01:32:33,520 --> 01:32:35,080 Speaker 2: really going to talk about the war in the Middle East. 1822 01:32:35,080 --> 01:32:36,800 Speaker 2: We're going to talk with three different topics about that. 1823 01:32:36,920 --> 01:32:40,519 Speaker 2: So first up, Greenland, what have Danish soldiers been doing 1824 01:32:40,560 --> 01:32:41,800 Speaker 2: in Greenland. 1825 01:32:42,320 --> 01:32:46,920 Speaker 9: Well, preparing to blow up key airport runways over fears 1826 01:32:46,960 --> 01:32:50,280 Speaker 9: that the US President Donald Trump could invade the Arctic island. 1827 01:32:50,600 --> 01:32:54,439 Speaker 9: This according to the public broadcaster in Denmark, which also 1828 01:32:54,560 --> 01:32:59,360 Speaker 9: cites senior sources within Danish military and the government, and 1829 01:32:59,600 --> 01:33:03,759 Speaker 9: a line others European allies too, and even the Financial 1830 01:33:03,800 --> 01:33:08,400 Speaker 9: Times newspaper here saying two European officials later confirmed the report. 1831 01:33:08,640 --> 01:33:11,360 Speaker 9: So this of course came if you remember, after Donald 1832 01:33:11,360 --> 01:33:13,760 Speaker 9: Trump said I want Greenland, I'm going to take it. 1833 01:33:13,800 --> 01:33:16,880 Speaker 9: He didn't rule out taking it by force. This Arctic 1834 01:33:16,960 --> 01:33:21,000 Speaker 9: island huge, huge island, part of the Kingdom of Denmark, 1835 01:33:21,040 --> 01:33:26,120 Speaker 9: but semi self autonomous really, and Donald Trump focused his 1836 01:33:26,200 --> 01:33:29,360 Speaker 9: eyes on it, saying it was strategically important. There was 1837 01:33:29,400 --> 01:33:33,920 Speaker 9: also extensive is also extensive oil and believe to be 1838 01:33:34,000 --> 01:33:37,040 Speaker 9: gas around the island as well, and it led to 1839 01:33:37,120 --> 01:33:40,560 Speaker 9: a bit of a standoff, particularly after he took Venezuela 1840 01:33:40,600 --> 01:33:44,240 Speaker 9: on the third of January, and that was when it 1841 01:33:44,320 --> 01:33:47,679 Speaker 9: was reported that he felt he could walk on water, 1842 01:33:47,760 --> 01:33:50,800 Speaker 9: according to one official, and seriously thought that a couple 1843 01:33:50,840 --> 01:33:53,559 Speaker 9: of months after that he would come and take Greenland 1844 01:33:53,560 --> 01:33:55,439 Speaker 9: as well, because at one point he actually said, we'll 1845 01:33:55,439 --> 01:33:59,160 Speaker 9: worry about Greenland in about two months, having taken Venezuela. 1846 01:33:59,280 --> 01:34:02,240 Speaker 9: So the daily were preparing for this, and it appears 1847 01:34:02,320 --> 01:34:05,720 Speaker 9: we're going to fight for Greenland or even though US 1848 01:34:05,800 --> 01:34:09,439 Speaker 9: and Denmark all part of NATO, the issue of Greenland 1849 01:34:09,520 --> 01:34:14,160 Speaker 9: has been hugely divisive for Washington and European allies, and 1850 01:34:14,200 --> 01:34:16,200 Speaker 9: it looks like they were preparing to do this. So 1851 01:34:16,280 --> 01:34:21,080 Speaker 9: some small contingent of Danish, French, German, Norwegian Swedish soldiers 1852 01:34:21,560 --> 01:34:24,880 Speaker 9: flew to Greenland. They were doing a military exercise. But 1853 01:34:24,960 --> 01:34:28,640 Speaker 9: in amongst that, elite Danish soldiers and a French continuant 1854 01:34:28,880 --> 01:34:33,320 Speaker 9: strained for warfare in cold mountainous areas, ready to defend 1855 01:34:34,040 --> 01:34:35,720 Speaker 9: and if they thought things were going to be good. 1856 01:34:35,760 --> 01:34:37,200 Speaker 9: Note they never thought they were going to be able 1857 01:34:37,240 --> 01:34:39,680 Speaker 9: to repel the US, but they wanted to show that 1858 01:34:39,800 --> 01:34:43,200 Speaker 9: this was a takeover and had even ordered blood supplies 1859 01:34:43,479 --> 01:34:45,920 Speaker 9: in order to treat the wounded in the event of fighting. 1860 01:34:46,640 --> 01:34:48,639 Speaker 2: All Right, to London we go, where we've got two 1861 01:34:48,720 --> 01:34:50,599 Speaker 2: Iranian men in court. What's it about? 1862 01:34:51,880 --> 01:34:54,639 Speaker 9: Yeah, and this I think is a sign of growing 1863 01:34:54,760 --> 01:34:59,680 Speaker 9: concern over the reach of Iran into domestic affairs. The 1864 01:34:59,720 --> 01:35:02,519 Speaker 9: two aged forty and twenty two have both been charged 1865 01:35:02,560 --> 01:35:06,719 Speaker 9: and engaging in conduct likely to assist a foreign intelligence service. 1866 01:35:07,040 --> 01:35:10,000 Speaker 9: So they've been arrested under the new National Security Act, 1867 01:35:10,240 --> 01:35:13,799 Speaker 9: and they were accused of conducting hostile surveillance of Jewish 1868 01:35:13,880 --> 01:35:19,120 Speaker 9: targets in London. On behalf of theis the Iranian Intelligence Service. 1869 01:35:19,520 --> 01:35:21,959 Speaker 9: So what the persecution is saying is that they were 1870 01:35:22,160 --> 01:35:26,639 Speaker 9: basically staking out targets including Britain's oldest synagogue, a Jewish 1871 01:35:26,640 --> 01:35:30,280 Speaker 9: community center at campus with a school, an organization giving 1872 01:35:30,320 --> 01:35:35,240 Speaker 9: security advice to Jewish community, and the Israeli Embassy and consulate. 1873 01:35:35,280 --> 01:35:37,600 Speaker 9: And they were also said to be carrying out reconnaissance 1874 01:35:37,600 --> 01:35:40,479 Speaker 9: on one particular woman who was living in Essex in 1875 01:35:40,560 --> 01:35:43,799 Speaker 9: southeast England at the time. Now they were arrested thirteen 1876 01:35:43,880 --> 01:35:47,320 Speaker 9: days ago. The reconnaissances cent to have taken place July 1877 01:35:47,400 --> 01:35:51,439 Speaker 9: and August last year and also February last month this year, 1878 01:35:51,479 --> 01:35:55,000 Speaker 9: as it were, and they appeared in the dock and 1879 01:35:55,040 --> 01:35:58,240 Speaker 9: they're going to be reappearing now at the Old Bailey 1880 01:35:58,560 --> 01:36:02,040 Speaker 9: in mid April on his British Iranian national the other 1881 01:36:02,280 --> 01:36:04,200 Speaker 9: is an Iranian mat yikes. 1882 01:36:04,360 --> 01:36:07,280 Speaker 2: Now we're going to a little town in France and 1883 01:36:07,280 --> 01:36:10,080 Speaker 2: they're having an election, and unfortunately the candidates have a 1884 01:36:10,120 --> 01:36:13,640 Speaker 2: selection of quite unfortunate and interesting names. 1885 01:36:14,320 --> 01:36:17,680 Speaker 9: Yes, which has led to a massive, massive meltdown on 1886 01:36:17,760 --> 01:36:20,160 Speaker 9: the internet. So this little village has only got a 1887 01:36:20,200 --> 01:36:23,599 Speaker 9: population of twenty seven hundred and eighty five. The mayor 1888 01:36:23,800 --> 01:36:29,439 Speaker 9: who is seeking reelection is called Charles Hitler, Yes Hitler, 1889 01:36:29,520 --> 01:36:31,639 Speaker 9: but with a double t. He is the mayor. He's 1890 01:36:31,720 --> 01:36:36,560 Speaker 9: restanding for election, but one of his opponents to restand 1891 01:36:36,720 --> 01:36:42,439 Speaker 9: in election is none other than a man called Zelenski. Yes, 1892 01:36:42,640 --> 01:36:45,759 Speaker 9: you got it, the same as the Ukrainian Prime minister. 1893 01:36:46,400 --> 01:36:50,360 Speaker 9: He said, things have gone mad and basically the fight, 1894 01:36:50,439 --> 01:36:53,920 Speaker 9: as it were between the two has led to some 1895 01:36:54,040 --> 01:36:58,040 Speaker 9: great memes on social media and so forth. But he said, 1896 01:36:58,120 --> 01:37:00,559 Speaker 9: you know it is I've always seeing it as an 1897 01:37:00,560 --> 01:37:03,559 Speaker 9: occasional joke made about my name. He says, people draw 1898 01:37:03,640 --> 01:37:06,880 Speaker 9: mustaches on election posters. It's never a big deal. But 1899 01:37:07,080 --> 01:37:10,599 Speaker 9: now he said, I'm up against a a Zelenski. He said, 1900 01:37:10,680 --> 01:37:13,320 Speaker 9: my wife has been in tears with all the attention. 1901 01:37:13,680 --> 01:37:15,559 Speaker 2: Of course, well, welcome to the age of the Internet. 1902 01:37:15,600 --> 01:37:17,599 Speaker 2: And I thank you. There's Kevin Gray out of the UK. 1903 01:37:17,840 --> 01:37:20,080 Speaker 2: When you share a name with you know famous people. 1904 01:37:20,080 --> 01:37:23,439 Speaker 2: It's always unfortunate. Of course, my name is Dickens. And 1905 01:37:23,520 --> 01:37:26,400 Speaker 2: if I had, if I had a dollar for every 1906 01:37:26,400 --> 01:37:29,960 Speaker 2: time somebody said are you related to Charles Dickens, I'd 1907 01:37:29,960 --> 01:37:32,920 Speaker 2: say I'd be a very rich man. But my answer 1908 01:37:32,960 --> 01:37:36,479 Speaker 2: is always I am not related to Charles Dickenson. Even 1909 01:37:36,520 --> 01:37:39,840 Speaker 2: if I were, I'm not related close enough to get 1910 01:37:39,920 --> 01:37:42,040 Speaker 2: any money. So what's the point. But there we go, 1911 01:37:42,600 --> 01:37:48,640 Speaker 2: Dickens Asen Charles. That's me, not Dixon, not Dickinson.

Somebody says, but you agree 1921 01:38:18,120 --> 01:38:20,599 Speaker 2: that it's illegal. Of course it's illegal. I know it's illegal. 1922 01:38:20,680 --> 01:38:23,519 Speaker 2: But calling something illegal never stops it before it starts. 1923 01:38:23,880 --> 01:38:25,800 Speaker 2: You do that after it's finished, and you find out 1924 01:38:25,800 --> 01:38:29,200 Speaker 2: who's to blame.
