Unlike when Jack 33 00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:42,559 Speaker 5: Smith was a prosecutor, the agency conducting this investigation won't 34 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:46,440 Speaker 5: have the ability to compel testimony or cooperation from Smith 35 00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 5: or any former government employees. 36 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 3: Staying with Trump, he wants to bring back the presidential 37 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 3: fitness test in public schools.

But I don't see anything wrong 52 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 3: with that. 53 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:33,400 Speaker 2: You had to do. 54 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:36,720 Speaker 3: When I was at school, pe was a compulsory I'm 55 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,560 Speaker 3: pretty sure it was a compulsory subject. So everybody had 56 00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:42,639 Speaker 3: to sort of move you could. The only way you 57 00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:44,760 Speaker 3: could get out of doing pe was by not bringing 58 00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:46,799 Speaker 3: your pe gear, And then you would have to sit 59 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 3: down and watch everyone do it anyway, And if it 60 00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:51,000 Speaker 3: was raining, you would have to sit out in the 61 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 3: rain and want did everyone do it anyway? So you 62 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:56,079 Speaker 3: might as well join in and be warm. Nine two 63 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:58,080 Speaker 3: ninety two is the number to text. Would love to 64 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:00,360 Speaker 3: hear from you this morning. Tariffs. We aren't talking a 65 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:04,520 Speaker 3: lot about tariffs for good reason. We have shot up 66 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 3: the rankings. So we were at ten percent. Now we're 67 00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:11,120 Speaker 3: at fifteen tariff day Friday, of course, so yes, we 68 00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 3: are going to be paying more. The ten percent was 69 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:17,520 Speaker 3: around nine hundred million dollars. Is how much the value 70 00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 3: of the tariff was worth on how much we were exporting? 71 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 3: The question is whether the extra five points five percentage 72 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 3: points puts us out of competition with other exporters. Right, 73 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:33,080 Speaker 3: it's clearly something this government has thought about, and it's 74 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:36,040 Speaker 3: clearly enough to have them worried, because remember, these guys 75 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 3: weren't phased at ten percent. I asked Luxon and Maclay 76 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 3: several times about this over many months, and they all said, 77 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:46,920 Speaker 3: it's basically fine. We're not even going to try and 78 00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 3: get that number down to five percent, for example, We're 79 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 3: just going to go We're happy to cruise at ten. 80 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 3: Now five points added to the bill, and we're flying 81 00:03:56,840 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 3: diplomats and like it's the Munich conference, We've got urgent 82 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 3: meeting requests in, we're warming the jets on the tarmac, 83 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 3: civil servants briefcase up, and big coats on boarding planes 84 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 3: heading to Washington. So what gives the question for Luxan today, 85 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,799 Speaker 3: I think is why were we so chill at ten 86 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 3: and now so worked up at fifteen. I don't get it. 87 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:23,480 Speaker 3: Our prices and volumes held up apparently when we were 88 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 3: at ten percent. It's what they tell us, the exporters. 89 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 3: So why does fifteen makes such a big difference? What 90 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 3: does that do to our competitiveness? Serious question. And we 91 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 3: have a small trade surplus of about five hundred million 92 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:39,440 Speaker 3: dollars with the US, but that's nothing to them given 93 00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:43,680 Speaker 3: the size of their economy, and it's enough, according to 94 00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:45,719 Speaker 3: Trump to get us on as naughty list, you know, 95 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 3: anyone with a trade surpus, no matter if it's a dollar. 96 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 3: Which makes no sense by the way, because that numbers 97 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 3: bounced around, like for New Zealand and America, that numbers 98 00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 3: bounced around and bounced around and bounced around on average. 99 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:00,800 Speaker 3: We sell them as much stuff as we buy back 100 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 3: off them, basically, so the calculation makes no sense. But 101 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 3: the calculations never made sense. But the ten percent to 102 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 3: fifteen percent, so you can't argue on the calculation, but 103 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:16,919 Speaker 3: you ten to five percent to fifteen percent. How significant 104 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 3: a hit will we take from that change? Clearly it's 105 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:23,280 Speaker 3: going to be significant enough for us to fire up 106 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:26,159 Speaker 3: the jets and get the diplomats over there. Anyway, we'll 107 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 3: ask Luxon about that this morning on well over on 108 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:31,039 Speaker 3: HERELD Now we'll do that. I'm sure Mike will be 109 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 3: doing it too. Eleven minutes after five here on News Talks. 110 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:36,480 Speaker 3: Heb coming up next. We're going to talk to Beef 111 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 3: and Lamb about those terriffts, what they're seeing from Trump's 112 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 3: announcement on Friday. 113 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 1: The news you need this morning and the in depth 114 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 1: analysis earlier edition with Bryan Bridge and x Bowl Insulation 115 00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:51,279 Speaker 1: keeping Kiwi Holmes warm and dry. 116 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 2: This Winter News Talks headb. 117 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 3: It is fourteen minutes alf to five. Lillia Lawson's had 118 00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 3: a great night finishing as Red Bulls best Car and Hungry. 119 00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 3: We'll talk to Elliot Smith at that in just a 120 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:03,240 Speaker 3: few moments. Right now, our top trade diplomats heading to 121 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:05,320 Speaker 3: the States as we speak to try and bargain down 122 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:07,920 Speaker 3: our tariff rate on exports to the US. We've been 123 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:11,680 Speaker 3: hit with fifteen percent on Friday. Australia got away with 124 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,880 Speaker 3: ten our trade Minster Todd McLay will plead his case 125 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:17,600 Speaker 3: in the coming week. So what does the industry make 126 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:20,040 Speaker 3: of it all? Kate Ackland, Beef and Nam New Zealand 127 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:23,159 Speaker 3: share with us this morning, Kay, Good morning, morning Ryan. 128 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:26,839 Speaker 3: What is this a big difference for exporters? 129 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:28,280 Speaker 4: Oh? 130 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:31,599 Speaker 8: Look, we're incredibly disappointed and the main reason is it 131 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:35,560 Speaker 8: places our farms and exporters at a clear competitive disadvantage. 132 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:38,359 Speaker 8: And what's one of our most valuable markets. So to 133 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 8: be on a different rate from Australia or Uruguay or Argentina, 134 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:43,880 Speaker 8: that's quite significant. 135 00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 3: Are they all on ten? 136 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:49,240 Speaker 8: Yeah, those guys are all on ten. So only Brazil 137 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:53,360 Speaker 8: and Nicauagra are currently facing higher additional tariffs than New Zealander. 138 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:54,480 Speaker 2: The mining What. 139 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 3: Would that do to our sales and volumes potentially? 140 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:01,599 Speaker 8: Well, I think would make it very difficult to pass 141 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 8: that cost on, you know, so that would be something 142 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 8: that farmers and esports would have to have to absorbit 143 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:09,640 Speaker 8: this end. And you know, five percent might not sound 144 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 8: like much, but you know, the extra that extra tariff 145 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,679 Speaker 8: is we're looking at over three hundred million dollars more 146 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 8: than we were paying a year ago, assuming that trade 147 00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 8: level stayed the same. 148 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 3: So that's that includes a tech that's the full fifteen 149 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 3: percent you mean, not the difference between ten and five. Yeah, yeah, yes, okay, 150 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:34,880 Speaker 3: So it's well worth us sending over our diplomatic representations 151 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 3: and you know, kicking up a fuss as much as 152 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 3: we can. Are you happy with how the government's handled 153 00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 3: this on your behalf thus far? 154 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 8: Look, it's been a very tricky situation and as everyone knows, 155 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 8: quite unpredictable. So look, I think the approach you Zeland 156 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 8: had was right, but obviously now is the time to 157 00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:58,560 Speaker 8: do something. So it's great that the minister's heading up there. 158 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:01,560 Speaker 8: And yeah, do you know what to happen? 159 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:04,640 Speaker 3: What are you hearing about? What it is that their 160 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 3: justification is for it? 161 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:10,000 Speaker 8: Look, we haven't heard anything that It was quite a surprise, 162 00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 8: So you haven't heard any reason for this? 163 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 3: Okay? And what's your How often are they keeping you updated? 164 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:18,679 Speaker 3: Our government? 165 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:19,000 Speaker 2: That is. 166 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 8: We're in pretty constant contact with our government officials both 167 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:27,000 Speaker 8: here in New Zealand but also over in DC, so 168 00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 8: you know there is a great team over in DC. 169 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:31,800 Speaker 8: We've also got staff over there, so you know it 170 00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:34,720 Speaker 8: is quite a collective team New Zealand effort. 171 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:40,120 Speaker 3: Okay, Kate, appreciate your trying this morning. Good luck Kate Eckland, 172 00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:42,280 Speaker 3: who's beef and the New Zealand shared with us? Just 173 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 3: gone seventeen minutes after five. It's sort of scratched your 174 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 3: head stuff, isn't it when you've got a trade surplus. Yes, 175 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 3: we have a trade surplus, but it's you know, two 176 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:55,160 Speaker 3: forts of bugger all to the American Is this just 177 00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:58,840 Speaker 3: just an excuse, a blanket excuse to take some money 178 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 3: off other countries you trade with. It looks like that 179 00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:07,120 Speaker 3: to me. Seventeen minutes after five, Ryan, remember the Beep 180 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 3: test and Pe. We're talking about school this morning because 181 00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:14,840 Speaker 3: NCA change is coming and being announced this morning. Ryan. 182 00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 3: I love doing PE at school in the sixties only 183 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 3: so I could watch the girls in their PE year. Okay, 184 00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:28,280 Speaker 3: that's so weird, Ryan. This is on the health of 185 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:30,800 Speaker 3: the US president, who wants kids at school to be 186 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 3: going and doing push ups and pull ups and all 187 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 3: sorts of things. And the president's fitness test. This person said, 188 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 3: could Biden even get out of bed? Well, that's that's 189 00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:43,400 Speaker 3: an equally good point. Seventeen minutes after five, News Talk Pit, 190 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:45,160 Speaker 3: said be Elliot Smith in the studio. 191 00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:48,600 Speaker 1: Next the first word on the News of the Day 192 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 1: early edition with Ryan Bridge and x Fole Insulation, keeping 193 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:55,400 Speaker 1: Kiwi Holmes warm and Drey this winter. 194 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:56,520 Speaker 2: News Talk said be. 195 00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 3: Good morning, just gone twenty after five. We'll look at 196 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:02,200 Speaker 3: those NCA changes come out this morning just before six o'clock. 197 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,760 Speaker 3: Right now, Elliott Smith here was sport, Good morning morning, Ryan, 198 00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 3: So great night for another one. Another points finished for 199 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:08,360 Speaker 3: Liam Lawson. 200 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:10,560 Speaker 7: Back to back points finishes, back to back eighth in 201 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 7: Formula One, as he did in Belgium last week finished 202 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 7: eighth at the Hungarian Grand Prix overnight. This one probably 203 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 7: means a little bit more because he carried or beat 204 00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:22,480 Speaker 7: all the racing balls and red Bulls teammates time Max 205 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:26,080 Speaker 7: A Stappin finishing just behind him in ninth u Gisnoda 206 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:29,440 Speaker 7: down the track, as well as other rival from for 207 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 7: racing balls or rival teammate, whatever you want to call it, 208 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:35,079 Speaker 7: also finishing outside the top ten. So in terms of 209 00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:37,080 Speaker 7: the result, it's a really good one for Liam Lawson. 210 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:40,920 Speaker 7: Four points he gets and the f one. Our heads 211 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:43,560 Speaker 7: into the summer breaks of four weeks and tends to 212 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 7: be where a lot of the backroom deals are made 213 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 7: around what's happening next season, even if it doesn't all 214 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 7: come out now. This is when the deals are sort 215 00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 7: of made. They don't start again until right at the 216 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 7: end of month when they have the Dutch Formula one 217 00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:57,000 Speaker 7: Grand Prix. So he's put himself in a good position 218 00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 7: as they head into the break and all sorts of negotiations. 219 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 7: I'm sorry as to what his role will be next year, 220 00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 7: but in terms of what he's done points in the 221 00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 7: last three or four races. You have to say pretty 222 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:10,600 Speaker 7: good last few weeks for it for Liam Lawson the 223 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:14,439 Speaker 7: race won by Orlando Norris, finishing ahead of Oscar Piastre overnight. 224 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:17,000 Speaker 3: Right, nice good on him. And now the Warriors ye 225 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 3: missing out to the Dolphins. Is this the point in 226 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:21,520 Speaker 3: the season where we start to go we should. 227 00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 7: Perhaps be a little bit worried about the Warriors. They've 228 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:26,400 Speaker 7: got a lot of injuries. And after that loss on 229 00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 7: Friday Night twenty to eighteen, I mean they got back 230 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:31,360 Speaker 7: and were leading that game right till the very end, 231 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:34,720 Speaker 7: and then the Dolphins scoring and taking the win in 232 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 7: a heartbreaker for the Warriors. But from that point on 233 00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:39,520 Speaker 7: it didn't get much better for the Warriors because all 234 00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 7: their rivals for the top four, and you really want 235 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:43,480 Speaker 7: to finish in the top four in the NRAL. Gives 236 00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 7: you a second life in the playoffs where the Broncos 237 00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:48,720 Speaker 7: win just after them, so they closed to within a win, 238 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,320 Speaker 7: the Panthers an hour a point behind after starting the 239 00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:55,000 Speaker 7: season terribly. The Sharks won yesterday, so all the teams 240 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 7: that are sort of chasing the Warriors for that fourth 241 00:11:57,000 --> 00:12:00,360 Speaker 7: spot in the playoffs have won over the weekend. Gap 242 00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:02,760 Speaker 7: is just tightening. They've got a tricky game this weekend 243 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 7: as well, the Warriors against the Bulldogs away, the Bulldogs 244 00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 7: losing yesterday to the Tigers, but they're right in that 245 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 7: top four as well. So yeah, this isn't looking good 246 00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 7: for the Warriors necessarily. Hopefully I can get it back 247 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 7: into winning ways. But it's just been a couple of wobbles, 248 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:19,120 Speaker 7: which is not the point of the season where you 249 00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:20,319 Speaker 7: want to get wobbles right now. 250 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:23,720 Speaker 3: It's certainly not now. Lewis Clairebert Kleibert and the pool 251 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:27,559 Speaker 3: in Singapore, how's he been doing? Not? Not great? 252 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:31,000 Speaker 7: No, he said, a national record in the two hundred 253 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 7: medley last week. 254 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:33,160 Speaker 3: That's not his preferred event. 255 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:36,440 Speaker 7: In his preferred event which he won the gold medal 256 00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 7: at at the World Championships last year. In twenty twenty four, 257 00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:42,560 Speaker 7: he's missed out on the final and that's a real 258 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 7: surprise for Lewis Claire Birdie finished sixth in the Olympics 259 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 7: in this distance the four hundred individual medley and as 260 00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 7: he won the World Championships last year, didn't even make 261 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 7: the final last night for this discipline. So hasn't been 262 00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:56,960 Speaker 7: the best of campaigns and men he can take away 263 00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:58,880 Speaker 7: the world record, so the national record in the two 264 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:02,000 Speaker 7: hundred individual medley, but four hundreds where his bread and 265 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:05,160 Speaker 7: butterers didn't make the final. There still a couple of 266 00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:08,440 Speaker 7: years obviously until the LA Olympics. But just an interesting 267 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:12,160 Speaker 7: we I guess tripped for him that didn't really work 268 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:14,160 Speaker 7: out for him in Singapore and now at this point 269 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 7: of career. Yeah, I guess a bit of a slide 270 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:17,560 Speaker 7: in doors moment as to where. 271 00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 3: He goes and in such a young man's game. 272 00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 9: It is. 273 00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 7: Yeah, my show on the world champion record holder want 274 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:25,880 Speaker 7: again in twenty three laws clear, it's now twenty six. 275 00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:28,200 Speaker 7: You just gotta wonder what was around the corner. 276 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:31,560 Speaker 3: You see that twelve year old Chinese and the just 277 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 3: absolutely blitzing it. 278 00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:36,880 Speaker 7: It's crazy, isn't it that these are just young athletes 279 00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:39,400 Speaker 7: that you know, get into it from a young age 280 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:42,040 Speaker 7: and just it's hard to explain, isn't it? 281 00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:44,920 Speaker 3: Really? Yeah, it's hard to watch it. It hard so 282 00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:47,320 Speaker 3: quickly all right, thanks so much for that, Alix Alix 283 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 3: Smith's news talk, said b Voice of Rugby.

And I think it 296 00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:32,760 Speaker 3: must be really starting to drag for Christopher Luxon too. 297 00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:36,360 Speaker 3: It's cold, it's dark. We just want to be at 298 00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 3: the beach, like all of our poser friends on Instagram 299 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:42,400 Speaker 3: who are in Bali or Europe being absolute you know 300 00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:46,360 Speaker 3: what's but we endure this gloomy season safe in the 301 00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:48,800 Speaker 3: knowledge that one day, in a month or so, springtime 302 00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 3: will come, the days will get longer, everything about life 303 00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:55,400 Speaker 3: will just feel easier, easy, breezy, warm, great, get me 304 00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 3: to it now. Contrast that to the economic winter that 305 00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:01,480 Speaker 3: will simultaneously enduring right now, and you can see that 306 00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 3: there's an immediate problem. Unlike winter, which we know will 307 00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:08,680 Speaker 3: end soon. This economic funk has graced us longer than 308 00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:12,040 Speaker 3: the gfc's. Inflation is on its way back up for goodness, 309 00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:14,080 Speaker 3: as we may have bounced out of a recession for 310 00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:16,600 Speaker 3: a few quarters, but there's also a good chance we 311 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:21,600 Speaker 3: currently back in negative growth territory. That's after three years 312 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:26,720 Speaker 3: of unaffordable food, your mortgages, pretty much everything. You know this, 313 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:30,560 Speaker 3: I know this. Politicians are arguing again at the weekend 314 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:33,960 Speaker 3: about who's to blame. The answer, of course is the 315 00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:37,240 Speaker 3: Labor Party, the Reserve Bank. They went too far in 316 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:41,200 Speaker 3: responding to the virus, and then we continue down the 317 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:44,800 Speaker 3: spending spree, spending like a drunken sailor. Trump hasn't helped 318 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 3: just recently. The problem for National is that voters don't 319 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:51,120 Speaker 3: seem to care much who started the fire. They just 320 00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:54,640 Speaker 3: want the whole thing put out quickly, and they need 321 00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:57,480 Speaker 3: to feel the numbers. This is National's problem. This is 322 00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 3: the problem. They need to feel the numbers, not the 323 00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 3: ocr announcement the top line, but they need to feel 324 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:08,320 Speaker 3: the mortgage refixing on a lower rate. Food price inflation 325 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:12,520 Speaker 3: still going up, so things might be getting more expensive 326 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:16,840 Speaker 3: less quickly, but they're still going up. In price. Aren't 327 00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 3: they Only once people feel different will the polls respond? 328 00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:25,200 Speaker 3: For your Christopher Luxance, The biggest problem for the Coalition 329 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:28,440 Speaker 3: on waiting for that to happen is not that some 330 00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 3: might convert to labor voters in the meantime, but that 331 00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 3: they might jump ship all together and move to Brisbane. 332 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:39,920 Speaker 3: Pry and Bridge eight minutes after five on news book 333 00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:42,880 Speaker 3: set B nine two ninety two is the number to text. 334 00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:44,760 Speaker 3: Would love to hear your thoughts on that. This morning. 335 00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 3: Are lots of people texting about Trump and the tariffs 336 00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:51,240 Speaker 3: and what should our strategy be. Our strategy for the government. 337 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,960 Speaker 3: Initially to the homeless thing was deny, deny, deny. Now 338 00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:57,640 Speaker 3: there's acceptance, there's a problem. Here's Chris Bishop at the 339 00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:00,080 Speaker 3: weekend saying they're going to do something urgent about it. 340 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 3: I'm open to it, but I don't really want to 341 00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:05,120 Speaker 3: do it. I'll do it if I think it would 342 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:09,000 Speaker 3: make a difference. This is changing the rules to emergency 343 00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:15,720 Speaker 3: housing criteria. So we change the rules, homelessness goes up. 344 00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:18,719 Speaker 3: If you change them back, will it reverse the trend? 345 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:21,879 Speaker 3: He's saying, well, actually we're not sure, so watch this space. 346 00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:25,080 Speaker 3: We'll look at NCA before six.

Our reporters 358 00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:24,159 Speaker 3: all around the country in a second as well, but 359 00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:27,320 Speaker 3: staying with the UK for just a second. Love a 360 00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:32,119 Speaker 3: good royal story, especially one involving fisticuffs. So you might 361 00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:35,919 Speaker 3: have seen this at the weekend. Prince Andrew apparently got 362 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:39,399 Speaker 3: punched in the face by Harry. Harry was upset at 363 00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:42,320 Speaker 3: something Andrew had said, and then you think, well, what 364 00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:45,639 Speaker 3: was Andrew saying? Apparently it was meant to be behind 365 00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:48,760 Speaker 3: his back, and then actually Harry heard it, and so 366 00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:52,600 Speaker 3: Harry got all fired up. But Andrew said something behind 367 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 3: Harry's back about Meghan being you know it's not gonna 368 00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:59,040 Speaker 3: the marriage won't last lot, Like I give it a month, 369 00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 3: he said, give it what it might last more than 370 00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:05,280 Speaker 3: a month. He also said Megan was an opportunist and 371 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:08,800 Speaker 3: thought that she was too old for Harry, well far 372 00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 3: bent from Prince Andrew to be talking about age. But yeah, 373 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:15,239 Speaker 3: he said, which I didn't even realize there was an 374 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:18,200 Speaker 3: age gap. It's three years. Apparently she's three years older 375 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:20,160 Speaker 3: than Harry. Do I think that makes a big difference. 376 00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:23,040 Speaker 3: I don't think that's that important anyway. Harry hears it. 377 00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:28,040 Speaker 3: Harry gets upset, launches at Andrew, punches him in the nose, 378 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:32,720 Speaker 3: royal blood spelling on the palace floor, and then apparently 379 00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 3: it all kicks off. This is in a new biography 380 00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:40,400 Speaker 3: about the Duke of York. Harry now has come out 381 00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:42,240 Speaker 3: as a result of this, because it was published in 382 00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:44,600 Speaker 3: the Daily Mail at the weekend. Harry has come out 383 00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 3: and said, not true, not true. I did lay no 384 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:50,720 Speaker 3: punch on my uncle twenty two minutes away. 385 00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:52,200 Speaker 2: From six Ryan Bridge. 386 00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:55,440 Speaker 3: Get to our reporters around the country, starting in Dunedin, 387 00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 3: Rosie Leishman, Rosie, good morning, good morning, Bumper turnout of 388 00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:00,800 Speaker 3: election candidates for. 389 00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 10: You guys, yes, So nominations closed on Friday for October's 390 00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:08,480 Speaker 10: local body elections.

Council Chief Executive Sandy Graham says she's delighted 396 00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:27,399 Speaker 10: to see such a high level of community engagement and 397 00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:29,800 Speaker 10: participation in this democratic process. 398 00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:34,160 Speaker 3: Great. I'm excited to see that too, Rosie. How's the weather. 399 00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:38,920 Speaker 10: Some severe frosts about this morning with developing northeasterlies before 400 00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:41,119 Speaker 10: clouding over a bit in the evening in a high 401 00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:42,320 Speaker 10: of eleven degrees. 402 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:44,399 Speaker 3: Brilliant. Thank you very much, Rosie, because you look at 403 00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:46,359 Speaker 3: other places around the country and I was looking just 404 00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:50,080 Speaker 3: this morning in hut South, for example. This is a 405 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:54,760 Speaker 3: Chris Bishop's area. Int five councilors have already been elected 406 00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:59,639 Speaker 3: unopposed to the council, so not even contested. In the 407 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:03,520 Speaker 3: East Community Board. They've all been elected on the post 408 00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:07,439 Speaker 3: five slots five people, no one going against them. Rosie, 409 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:09,960 Speaker 3: thank you for that. Clears you would it in clash 410 00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 3: jats this morning, clear, good morning. 411 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:12,240 Speaker 11: Good morning. 412 00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:16,720 Speaker 3: Now a new robotic lab in Canterbury's coming on. What's this? 413 00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:20,480 Speaker 11: Yeah, this is ARL's purpose built soil testing lab, which 414 00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:23,359 Speaker 11: is opening in Roliston today after their previous one at 415 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:26,920 Speaker 11: Hawk's Bay was destroyed during a cyclone. Gabrielle. This lab 416 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:30,920 Speaker 11: will boost New Zealand's capacity for soil testing. Their new 417 00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:33,880 Speaker 11: lab is fifty percent bigger than the previous one they 418 00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:39,160 Speaker 11: had and also uses robots to test to double testing capabilities. 419 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:43,439 Speaker 11: Now Agnition CEO Jasper van Holder says no jobs are 420 00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:46,359 Speaker 11: being launched from adding robotics. They have taken out some 421 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 11: manual labor though, but ultimately the robot means that they 422 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 11: can do double the work with half the number of people. 423 00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:55,399 Speaker 11: Plus the person looking after the robot can also be 424 00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:58,120 Speaker 11: doing other tasks at the same time, meaning the lab 425 00:21:58,240 --> 00:21:59,800 Speaker 11: is more productive overall. 426 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:02,400 Speaker 3: Okay, because I was going to say, if they bring 427 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:04,800 Speaker 3: a robot and they have to fire people, surely otherwise 428 00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 3: it's you. 429 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:07,600 Speaker 11: And I have to wonder if the person looking after 430 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:09,920 Speaker 11: the robot is of a lower skill level and maybe 431 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:10,480 Speaker 11: lower pay. 432 00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:13,520 Speaker 3: I don't know. Yes, good point. How's your weather clear? 433 00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:17,400 Speaker 11: Frosty and very cold here to start minus three at 434 00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:20,560 Speaker 11: the moment. Some light winds at northeasterly is developing and 435 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:22,159 Speaker 11: we will get to ten degrees. 436 00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:25,120 Speaker 3: Thank you, Max and Wellington A Max, good morning. You've 437 00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 3: got a problem with local government candidates? No, well you 438 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:29,439 Speaker 3: just talked about it. 439 00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:32,960 Speaker 12: Yes, so five councilors elected unopposed already in Lower Hearts, 440 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:36,639 Speaker 12: all of the Eastbourne Community Board elected unopposed. This was 441 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:39,680 Speaker 12: pointed out by a local MP, Christ Bishop, over the 442 00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:41,959 Speaker 12: weekend called it depressing. We spend so much of our 443 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:46,399 Speaker 12: time analyzing these people, counselors, their decisions. They can be 444 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:50,080 Speaker 12: monumental for a city, town region. Yet generally speaking, the 445 00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:52,240 Speaker 12: number putting their hands up is not trending in the 446 00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:55,400 Speaker 12: right direction. And that's evident. Now that nominations are closed 447 00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:59,600 Speaker 12: and the last local elections twenty percent of elections were 448 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:03,040 Speaker 12: uncan tested, we are still tallying up this one. Some 449 00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:06,120 Speaker 12: academics are talking about the rise and abuse possibly being 450 00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:08,199 Speaker 12: a factor. Why would you want to put your hand up? 451 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:12,600 Speaker 12: Trust going down in elected officials. Voter turn out relatively low, 452 00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 12: here in Wellington. Unless something remarkable happens, the meryoral race 453 00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:19,960 Speaker 12: looks more like a procession. Younger generations less likely to 454 00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:23,000 Speaker 12: vote as well, less likely to enroll. Fingers crossed, though 455 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:26,320 Speaker 12: twenty twenty five could still end up bucking the trend. 456 00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:29,199 Speaker 3: Hey, on the bright side, my parents sent me a 457 00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:31,840 Speaker 3: text on the weekend when I thought of you Max, 458 00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:34,080 Speaker 3: it's a clown. You've got a clown running in the 459 00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 3: mayoral race. Oh and he's wanting to turn the base 460 00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:41,040 Speaker 3: and Reserve back into a swamp. This is a big policy. 461 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:44,600 Speaker 3: Something metaphorical there you. How's your weather? 462 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:49,480 Speaker 12: Cloudy periods with isolated showers?

Can you believe this? 470 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:12,240 Speaker 13: A two year old girl inside a suitcase which was moving. 471 00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:15,800 Speaker 13: I think what had happened was alive alive, Thank goodness, 472 00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:17,840 Speaker 13: she was alive. So I think one of the passengers 473 00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:21,720 Speaker 13: on board wanted something, you know, in the luggage department 474 00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:24,080 Speaker 13: and in their bag, and so Kaiwaker was one of 475 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:26,160 Speaker 13: the stops and so he stopped off, Thank goodness for that, 476 00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:29,240 Speaker 13: and then he was getting something for Another passenger saw 477 00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:31,399 Speaker 13: this bag moving, thought what the flip and heck is 478 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:33,639 Speaker 13: that opened it up?

Last 520 00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 14: week we were reporting more than twenty five thousand have 521 00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:55,240 Speaker 14: arrived in small boats illegally across the English Channel from 522 00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:58,560 Speaker 14: France into the UK in twenty twenty five, so far, 523 00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:02,199 Speaker 14: a record for this point in the year. Today, the 524 00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:06,640 Speaker 14: government has announced that people advertising illegal channing crossms online 525 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:09,960 Speaker 14: could face up to five years in prison under a 526 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:11,800 Speaker 14: new offense they wanted to bring in. Now, you may 527 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:16,560 Speaker 14: think what advertising online, Yes, because, according to the government's analysis, 528 00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:19,840 Speaker 14: eighty percent of migrants arriving in the UK via a 529 00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:23,680 Speaker 14: small boat tell officials that they used social media during 530 00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:27,040 Speaker 14: their journey, many of them to contact agents linked to 531 00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:32,119 Speaker 14: people smuggling gangs. Indeed, recently they've had cases of Albanian people, 532 00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:36,000 Speaker 14: smugglers who have used social media platforms to promote twenty 533 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 14: four thousand New Zealand dollar package deals. That's what they 534 00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:42,439 Speaker 14: described them as, in order to get somebody to Britain 535 00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:46,480 Speaker 14: illegally and then get them accommodation and employment upon arrival. 536 00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:49,760 Speaker 14: It is quite extraordinary. But the opposition party to say 537 00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:52,200 Speaker 14: this plan is too little, too late, that the government's 538 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:56,960 Speaker 14: lost control of them its borders, and what a fine 539 00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:57,960 Speaker 14: mess we appear. 540 00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:01,160 Speaker 3: To be in goodness, may what about this old guy 541 00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:05,360 Speaker 3: who put some kind of poison and sweets that were 542 00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:08,080 Speaker 3: given to kids? What was going on here? Do we know? 543 00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:11,719 Speaker 14: Well, those are the allegations and no we don't have 544 00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:14,680 Speaker 14: many details. But a seventy six year old man has 545 00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:18,080 Speaker 14: now appeared in court facing charges to a number of 546 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:21,560 Speaker 14: children falling ill at a summer camp in the Midlands 547 00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:25,720 Speaker 14: in Leicestershire. To be more precise, eight children and one 548 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:29,880 Speaker 14: adult from this camp in Stathurn were taken to hospital. 549 00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:34,360 Speaker 14: All were discharged quite quickly. But a man, seventy six 550 00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:37,000 Speaker 14: year old man has been charged with three counts of 551 00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:40,120 Speaker 14: wilful ill treatment of a child relating to three boys. 552 00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:42,320 Speaker 14: At the end of last month, what does that mean. 553 00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:47,719 Speaker 14: We're basically wilfully assaulting, ill, treating, neglecting, abandoned, or exposing 554 00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:51,520 Speaker 14: three boys to unnecessary suffering or injury to health. Again, 555 00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:54,320 Speaker 14: what does all that mean? Because it's all the legal talk. Basically, 556 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:59,440 Speaker 14: it has suggested that this man laced suites with sedatives 557 00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:02,160 Speaker 14: for the children at the summer camp and they fell 558 00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:05,400 Speaker 14: ill afterwards. As I said, all allegations. The man didn't 559 00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:09,440 Speaker 14: make a plead at this particular point. Incidentally, he's not 560 00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:13,440 Speaker 14: the only one being investigated here. The police didn't turn 561 00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:18,560 Speaker 14: up for twenty four hours after problems were initially reported 562 00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:21,400 Speaker 14: to them, and now the police are in their own 563 00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:23,360 Speaker 14: kind of doc if you like, that's going to be 564 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:26,840 Speaker 14: investigated the police force for the handling of that incident. 565 00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 3: All right, Kevin, appreciate that. Kevin Gray are UK europe 566 00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:31,920 Speaker 3: correspondent just gone ten away from six right and Bridge 567 00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:35,280 Speaker 3: Rich take announcement this morning on in Cea and its future. 568 00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:38,280 Speaker 3: Will it be script entirely? Will parts of it be kipped? 569 00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:41,240 Speaker 3: We'll find out by nine o'clock this morning. Consultation will 570 00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:44,520 Speaker 3: be launched on up the wazoo. You can imagine the teachers, 571 00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:47,040 Speaker 3: the parents, industry, will have a chance to have a say. 572 00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:51,280 Speaker 3: Chris Hebercrombie is the PPTA president. Chris, good morning, good morning. 573 00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:54,280 Speaker 3: Have you seen what the plan is? No? 574 00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:57,200 Speaker 9: No, I'm not giving a briefing until a week beforehand. 575 00:29:57,480 --> 00:29:59,360 Speaker 3: Okay, And what do you think they're going to do 576 00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:02,800 Speaker 3: is throw and a bin start again or keep some bits. 577 00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:05,600 Speaker 9: Well, there's some really good bits to it, and so 578 00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:08,240 Speaker 9: hopefully they build on the system. Of course, it's not perfect. 579 00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:10,040 Speaker 9: We know this, and in recent years has been really 580 00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:13,320 Speaker 9: whiteseat agreement on improvements needed. So we hope we don't 581 00:30:13,320 --> 00:30:15,280 Speaker 9: throw it out and we don't improve on what we need. 582 00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:18,840 Speaker 3: What the what's the biggest thing that needs improvement? Is 583 00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:22,520 Speaker 3: it the you know, the consistency depending on what you're studying, 584 00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:24,320 Speaker 3: or is it the way that things are assessed. 585 00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:28,840 Speaker 9: It's a bit of both. So we need what we know, 586 00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:31,240 Speaker 9: we need a bit more coherency and around subjects and 587 00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:34,400 Speaker 9: development in that area, and we also just need a 588 00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:38,120 Speaker 9: weave a bit more issue in making clear vocational pathways 589 00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:39,200 Speaker 9: and just a simpler structure. 590 00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:43,960 Speaker 3: So what does that mean making clear the vocational pathways? 591 00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:46,160 Speaker 3: If you don't want to go to university, then there's 592 00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:48,000 Speaker 3: something else for you to do and this is how 593 00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:49,760 Speaker 3: you do it exactly. 594 00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:52,640 Speaker 9: So at the moment, it's really reliant on schools and 595 00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:56,520 Speaker 9: their relationship with local politechs, businesses, et cetera. There's no 596 00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:59,480 Speaker 9: real clear national pathways and so someone around that area 597 00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:01,120 Speaker 9: would be fountastic. 598 00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:02,880 Speaker 3: Getting the schools closer to the polytechs. 599 00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:06,480 Speaker 9: Well, it could be polytechts, could be business, could be 600 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:09,360 Speaker 9: other things. Schools do amazing things through gateway programs and 601 00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:14,600 Speaker 9: other work experience programs, but there's no real national policy around. 602 00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:16,760 Speaker 9: This is all schools leaving it up to themselves in 603 00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:20,360 Speaker 9: their relationships with individual businesses polytechs. If they happened to 604 00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:21,880 Speaker 9: have one in their community. 605 00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:24,080 Speaker 3: What's the one thing you don't want them to go near. 606 00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:28,200 Speaker 9: We'd hate for it to scrap the standards based assessment 607 00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:30,520 Speaker 9: because at the heart of it is about rewarding students 608 00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:33,000 Speaker 9: what for what they know, and they can demonstrate their 609 00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:36,800 Speaker 9: knowledge and they have all opportunities to succeed the older 610 00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:39,600 Speaker 9: system which had a built in failure rate. We don't 611 00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:40,440 Speaker 9: want to see that happen. 612 00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:43,840 Speaker 3: Chris, appreciate your time. Chris Abercrombi PPTA President. That decision 613 00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:45,680 Speaker 3: will be out by nine o'clock This morning disc on 614 00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:46,640 Speaker 3: eight to six. 615 00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:51,840 Speaker 1: On your radio and online on iHeartRadio Early Edition with 616 00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:56,080 Speaker 1: Ryan Bridge and ex Full Insulation keeping Kiwi homes warm 617 00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:58,040 Speaker 1: and dry this winter News. 618 00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:01,280 Speaker 3: Talks, that'd be folks six to six on News Talks, 619 00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:03,760 Speaker 3: he'd be Wednesday. We will get our stats in set 620 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:07,160 Speaker 3: update on employment. This is for the June quarter. We'll 621 00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:09,479 Speaker 3: get an unemployment number, which would probably be going up 622 00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:12,000 Speaker 3: to five point three percent. They reckon from five point 623 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:14,680 Speaker 3: one percent. We will get an employment number and we 624 00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:18,000 Speaker 3: will get information about our wages. Doesn't feel like they've 625 00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:20,680 Speaker 3: been going up with inflation, but apparently they are ahead 626 00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:23,800 Speaker 3: of it. That's Wednesday this week, just gone five to 627 00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:27,080 Speaker 3: six and the big NCAA announcement coming before nine o'clock. 628 00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:29,120 Speaker 3: Mike's in the studio this morning. Make good morning. You 629 00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:32,120 Speaker 3: grouped by that, Well, it depends what they do. I 630 00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:34,320 Speaker 3: suppose do they get Well, I. 631 00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:37,000 Speaker 6: Tell you what they'll initially do, is they whatever they announced, 632 00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:40,040 Speaker 6: they'll go, We're going to consult on it. So it's month, 633 00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:42,440 Speaker 6: it's months down the track. My big concern was, and 634 00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:44,360 Speaker 6: I've gone through this in the last few years with kids, 635 00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:47,200 Speaker 6: is that the idea was that by the time you 636 00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:50,320 Speaker 6: got to year thirteen, you could choose whatever you wanted. Yeah, so, 637 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:54,040 Speaker 6: and that was good for the kid who was engaged. 638 00:32:54,360 --> 00:32:56,160 Speaker 6: So if you had a plan in life, you could 639 00:32:56,200 --> 00:32:58,440 Speaker 6: go I'm going to channel myself in that direction. Because 640 00:32:58,480 --> 00:32:59,960 Speaker 6: when I was at school, and you'll be the same, 641 00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:02,040 Speaker 6: you had to do maths, you had to do English, 642 00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:03,720 Speaker 6: you had to do with science and all that crap 643 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:06,040 Speaker 6: that may or may not have been relevant to you. 644 00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:08,200 Speaker 6: And my suspicion is today they're going to go back 645 00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:11,680 Speaker 6: to that. Well because the tse of school, no, it's not. 646 00:33:12,080 --> 00:33:14,680 Speaker 6: The powers of school for people who are engaged is 647 00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:17,040 Speaker 6: to channel. And this where university comes and you channel 648 00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:19,040 Speaker 6: yourself in the direction you want to go. Problem is 649 00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:23,360 Speaker 6: it's weakest link, lowest common denominator. Everyone does drama and 650 00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:24,160 Speaker 6: does so. 651 00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:26,840 Speaker 3: My brother left school before he was well when he 652 00:33:26,880 --> 00:33:29,440 Speaker 3: was sixteen. I stayed because I wanted to go to UNI. 653 00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:32,200 Speaker 3: So I learned all that stuff that I had to learn. 654 00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:36,080 Speaker 3: But if you are not wanting to go to university 655 00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:39,240 Speaker 3: or keep going with education, then aren't you better off 656 00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:43,040 Speaker 3: Like in a business? Yeah, I agree, you knowing an apprenticeship, 657 00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:45,000 Speaker 3: but there's place for you to be. 658 00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:48,000 Speaker 6: Falling between stools is what I'm saying. The more prescriptive 659 00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:49,920 Speaker 6: they get, the more trouble they're going to have. It 660 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:52,520 Speaker 6: suit some people. That's not you know, the moment you 661 00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:54,120 Speaker 6: get a test, you're going to have people failing. When 662 00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:55,640 Speaker 6: you have people failing and go oh, we can't have 663 00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:56,719 Speaker 6: so many people failing. 664 00:33:56,840 --> 00:33:59,800 Speaker 3: They have to fix the exam versus internal thing though. 665 00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:01,520 Speaker 3: That's that's got to happen today. 666 00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:03,760 Speaker 6: So the proof isn't putting prime ministers. And by the way, 667 00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:05,440 Speaker 6: with the terroriffs, have. 668 00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:06,800 Speaker 3: A great day of run. See you tomorrow. 669 00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:15,920 Speaker 2: Exkip what. 670 00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:20,200 Speaker 1: For more from Early Edition with Ryan Bridge.
