So 10 00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:32,239 Speaker 2: we're underway for Tuesday morning, seven past six. Can I 11 00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:35,320 Speaker 2: join a couple of dots here? Firstly, congratulations to the 12 00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:38,040 Speaker 2: Public Service Commissioner Brian Wrote, who, in his first report, 13 00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:40,559 Speaker 2: after wandering the corridors of public service them for a 14 00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:43,280 Speaker 2: couple of weeks, has come back with the observation it's 15 00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:46,159 Speaker 2: not fit for purpose. I think I will repeat that 16 00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:49,479 Speaker 2: it's not fit for purpose. I think most of us 17 00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:52,320 Speaker 2: probably suspected that, and its further evidence that what the 18 00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:54,400 Speaker 2: government did last year and trimming numbers was well and 19 00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:56,920 Speaker 2: truly overdue. Not that losing your job as any fun 20 00:00:56,960 --> 00:00:58,640 Speaker 2: of course, But the cold hard truth of it is 21 00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:02,000 Speaker 2: government's especially left Lee, never think about that as they 22 00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:04,399 Speaker 2: fire up the hiring and bloke the place into sedagnation. 23 00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:07,280 Speaker 2: What Roach says as there are too many meetings and 24 00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:08,959 Speaker 2: that's a reason not to make a decision. So let 25 00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:11,520 Speaker 2: me ask you this, is it possible that part of 26 00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:13,320 Speaker 2: what the government is copying at the moment i e. 27 00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:16,120 Speaker 2: Too many announcements, not enough results, lies in part at 28 00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 2: the feet of the public service. Do the government expect 29 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:20,560 Speaker 2: that when they get a department to do something, they 30 00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:24,080 Speaker 2: actually think something is going to happen, and mainly from 31 00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:27,120 Speaker 2: Brian's reporting, it doesn't. Or how about this, Do the 32 00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:30,040 Speaker 2: public service hate the government and are determined to course hapoc? 33 00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:32,600 Speaker 2: Is the public service not neutral at all? They like 34 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:34,800 Speaker 2: labor because labor hires lots of them, gives them all 35 00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 2: pay rises, so they can make the right leaners look useless. 36 00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:39,960 Speaker 2: They can get labour back boost the unions, get more jobs, 37 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:41,680 Speaker 2: more money, more morning teas, and it's back to the 38 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:43,720 Speaker 2: good old days. This is not to say there aren't 39 00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 2: excellent people who found everywhere, because there are, of course, 40 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 2: but the public service has a different sort of culture. 41 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:50,880 Speaker 2: I remember I learned this when I worked for radio 42 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:52,560 Speaker 2: in New Zealand many years ago. It's not like any 43 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,680 Speaker 2: other radio operator I ever worked for. Next step, it's 44 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 2: one thing to observe. It's not fit for purpose. What 45 00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:01,320 Speaker 2: now it feels like a very big ship, and big 46 00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 2: ships are hard to turn. 47 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 3: News of the world in ninety second. 48 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:08,600 Speaker 2: Now we're going to get to Catherine shortly find out 49 00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:11,800 Speaker 2: what Europe's deciding at their emergency summit while they ponder 50 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:13,280 Speaker 2: Trump and Coy moving on. 51 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:15,960 Speaker 3: They have a big, powerful machine, you understand that. 52 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:21,279 Speaker 1: And they defeated Hitler, and they defeated Napoleon. 53 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 4: You know, they've been fighting a long time, they've. 54 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:23,960 Speaker 5: Done it before. 55 00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:26,440 Speaker 6: But I think you'd like this. 56 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:28,359 Speaker 7: I think you would like to stub fight. 57 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:31,240 Speaker 2: S game out of Russia, seeing a way back in 58 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:32,600 Speaker 2: from the cold. He's putting the knife and. 59 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 4: If they're going to wheezl out some cunning ideas about 60 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,960 Speaker 4: freezing the conflict while actually intending, as is their custom 61 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 4: nature and habit, to continue the war. So why should 62 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 4: we invite them at all? 63 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 2: So Germany, they're worried about any of us and all 64 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 2: of this, but they've also got this week in what 65 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:50,919 Speaker 2: may well be a defining moment in the democracy I've 66 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:51,440 Speaker 2: come from. 67 00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:55,120 Speaker 8: It is a Jewish heritage, so I'm really worried about 68 00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:56,960 Speaker 8: about the safety of my family. 69 00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:59,680 Speaker 9: I don't want to believe that's twenty percent of German 70 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:02,000 Speaker 9: copy is extremis. 71 00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:03,680 Speaker 2: And that's why it's worth watching. A couple of things 72 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:05,400 Speaker 2: in Britain they refer to the AfD. Of course, a 73 00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:07,080 Speaker 2: couple of things in Britain are one. They have an 74 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:11,239 Speaker 2: Iranian hostage scenario. Craig and lindsay we're arrested last month, 75 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,520 Speaker 2: pressures on star at a hustle. Anna, who's been a 76 00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 2: hostage in Iran, knows how it all feels. 77 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:18,080 Speaker 10: I would have hoped that the Western governments would have 78 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 10: come up with a viable policy to counter Iran sausage 79 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:25,880 Speaker 10: to pomacy. However, we kind of keep giving into it, 80 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 10: and it's just sad to see that another lovely couple 81 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 10: has become a victim of all of this. 82 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:32,520 Speaker 2: They might want to not go to Iran in the 83 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 2: first place. I just wonder if any when they booked 84 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 2: their ticket to Iran to just drive their motorcycle across 85 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 2: the countryside, whether they wonder to themselves there might be 86 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 2: better places to go and two are the forremuntion. Pm 87 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 2: as having a decent day, claiming victory of sorts of 88 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 2: the nags. 89 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:50,080 Speaker 11: I said that we would get two million extra appointments 90 00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 11: done in the first year of the government, and I'm 91 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 11: really pleased that we've done that. We've hit the target, 92 00:03:57,760 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 11: and we've done it with seven months to spare. 93 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,200 Speaker 2: Finally, a longevity expert says, have a look at your 94 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 2: nails this morning to see how long you will live. 95 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 2: This is doctor David sincleir Is from Harvard Parloured, an 96 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 2: expert in genetics. He says, the right to nail growth, 97 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 2: that's a very good indicator of how fast you're aging. 98 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,720 Speaker 2: So after the age of thirty, nail growth drops off 99 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 2: by about half a percent per year. So if you're 100 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:21,120 Speaker 2: cutting your nails more frequently than others, very good sign 101 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,360 Speaker 2: that you're aging more slowly. It's news of the world 102 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:26,040 Speaker 2: and good grooming. In ninety before, we got some growth 103 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:29,040 Speaker 2: in Japan. Boy do we ever, Well, it's a third 104 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 2: or fourth I currt remember what happened. I think it's 105 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 2: third largest economy. Still, GDP grew zero point seven percent 106 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 2: quarter on quarter, and they also expanded a revis zero 107 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 2: point four percent of the previous quarter. So annualize you 108 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:40,760 Speaker 2: got two point eight What did routers think it was? 109 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:42,800 Speaker 2: What there was going to be? One came in at 110 00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:45,040 Speaker 2: two point eight. We'll take that.

He's 123 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:32,680 Speaker 2: run a bit of a rival with this good news. 124 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 2: Service sector expansior airy I reckon. 125 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:39,360 Speaker 12: It's been unusual to say this too, hasn't it, Because 126 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 12: the service sector is showing signs of life if we 127 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 12: use the measure of the Business New Zealand b and 128 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:48,720 Speaker 12: Z ED monthly Survey of the service sector, which was 129 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 12: released yesterday, it is an expansionary territory reading it fifty 130 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:56,600 Speaker 12: point four for January, so fifty is the cutoff for 131 00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:59,920 Speaker 12: the sector expanding on contracting, so it's there just a 132 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,800 Speaker 12: it's up two point three points from December, so it 133 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 12: complements the manufacturing sector numbers which are also in expanisory 134 00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 12: territory which we saw on which we've. 135 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:10,320 Speaker 2: Got out on Friday. 136 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:13,800 Speaker 12: Now, the services sector the long term average is fifty 137 00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:16,160 Speaker 12: three point one, so at fifty point four, it's still 138 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 12: sort of a little bit weak on a relative basis, 139 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:21,920 Speaker 12: but we will take it. Looking at the sub indexes 140 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 12: activity sales is at the highest level of Senate since 141 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 12: March twenty twenty three, the forward looking sort of New 142 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:32,360 Speaker 12: Water's new business that's that's still quite static. So look 143 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 12: it's not it's not surging, but it's encouraging to see 144 00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 12: the survey stabilize. Still a little weaker than global comparatives. 145 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 12: They're sitting at fifty two point two, but might you 146 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 12: take this with the manufacturing survey and it's a positive 147 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:51,360 Speaker 12: signal for growth. The combined index the component index suggests recovery, 148 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:53,920 Speaker 12: which is consistent with some of the data we're seeing. 149 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:55,960 Speaker 12: As I said, it's not a broad based surge though. 150 00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 12: The employment sub index still low at forty seven point 151 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 12: one one, which suggests there is still sort of contraction 152 00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:06,920 Speaker 12: in services sector employment. The authors of the survey are 153 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 12: suggesting this one's outcome is hinting, hinting, Isaiah a turning 154 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 12: point in the economy. Now Arbienz's up to the plate 155 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 12: this week. I don't know whether they this will come 156 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:18,680 Speaker 12: into their comments or whether it happened too late, but 157 00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 12: bit interesting to see if they mention it, particularly in 158 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:22,680 Speaker 12: light of that a little bit of strength that we 159 00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 12: saw in those selected prices into the food price index 160 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:26,720 Speaker 12: at the end of last week. 161 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:32,640 Speaker 2: Wet wait are you calling fifty yep? Okay? Migration, next 162 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,240 Speaker 2: question for you is this a bottom? Is this as 163 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:36,119 Speaker 2: bad as it gets? 164 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 12: I think I think so on the annual basis, it's 165 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 12: still falling, But yeah, in the short term, I think 166 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 12: we can validly ask the question are we finding a base? 167 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:46,880 Speaker 12: So just looking at the numbers, not permanent long term 168 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:49,760 Speaker 12: migration for the month three hundred and ten. That's the 169 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 12: seasonally adjusted number that will get revised. The raw figures 170 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 12: roughly one thousand the previous month seasonal adjust to two 171 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,840 Speaker 12: one hundred and forty. Above that, look at the annual numbers, 172 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 12: they're still falling because of course you've got numbers dropping 173 00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 12: out the other side of twenty seven thousand, previous was 174 00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 12: thirty thousand, three hundred and thirty one. But the key here, Mike, 175 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:15,280 Speaker 12: is your arrivals one hundred and fifty six thousand, call it. 176 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 12: That's down thirty two percent, but departures one hundred and 177 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:24,440 Speaker 12: twenty nine thousand, up twenty seven percent. So provisionally that 178 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:26,680 Speaker 12: departure under the highest on records. So we're looking at 179 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 12: the lowest levels of migration since late. 180 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:30,840 Speaker 2: Twenty twenty two. 181 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 12: Remember it peaked it over one hundred and thirty five thousand. 182 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 2: So the key here. 183 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:39,040 Speaker 12: Annual arrivals slowing, annual departures still hitting record high. So 184 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 12: there was a bit of speculation Mike that we could 185 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 12: see negative migration this year, but if you look at 186 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:47,600 Speaker 12: those monthly numbers, they seem to be stabilizing and the 187 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 12: revision seem to be trending upwards. So you know, think 188 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:52,640 Speaker 12: I think we are. I don't think we'll see a 189 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 12: negative a negative migration. Larger source of rivals excluding returning 190 00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:00,840 Speaker 12: key were China, Philippines in their quipments, and tourism is 191 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:03,800 Speaker 12: looking more positive. Mic You got that visitor Levy Caman 192 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 12: in October doesn't seem to be impacting visit numbers yet. 193 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:07,960 Speaker 13: There should be a lag there. 194 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:11,160 Speaker 12: But we're running at fifteen percent of pre COVID numbers, 195 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 12: so it's slowly getting better. 196 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:17,520 Speaker 2: Thank But good lord, what are the numbers? The numbers now? 197 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:21,880 Speaker 12: The US market not trading because it's President's Day. But 198 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:24,200 Speaker 12: if I look at the futures markets which are still 199 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:28,920 Speaker 12: trading for the US indices, they are in positive territory. 200 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:31,240 Speaker 12: So that's good read for our market.

The 340 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:27,880 Speaker 2: Aquaculture New Zealand CEO is Gary Hooper as well as 341 00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:28,520 Speaker 2: Gary Morning. 342 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:30,440 Speaker 16: Good morning mate. 343 00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:31,640 Speaker 2: Do you see what the bank sees? 344 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:35,720 Speaker 16: Yeah, I had a glance at the report late yesterday 345 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 16: and I generally agree that specifically they highlighted aquaculture as 346 00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:43,560 Speaker 16: an area for significant growth. And of course that's a 347 00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:45,480 Speaker 16: story of pict trying to tell for almost the last 348 00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:49,640 Speaker 16: twenty years. And I think we are right on the 349 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,640 Speaker 16: cuts and it was made terrific gains I rolled back to. 350 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:54,840 Speaker 16: I think it was back in Hall and Clark's government 351 00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:57,880 Speaker 16: towards the end there was a strategy of a billion 352 00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 16: dollars by twenty twenty five didn't. 353 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:00,880 Speaker 17: Quite get there. 354 00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:05,160 Speaker 16: We're eight hundred million, a bit over eight hundred million. 355 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:08,240 Speaker 16: But I sort of reflect back and look at the 356 00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:12,119 Speaker 16: things why didn't we get there, and things like consenting, 357 00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:16,119 Speaker 16: the difficulty in getting consens new consents, the uncertainty of it, 358 00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:20,399 Speaker 16: the time taken, and the extraordinary cost. Of course, what 359 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:23,240 Speaker 16: that does is damp in both interest and investment. 360 00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 2: Correct do you hold out hope with the reform that's 361 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 2: going on under the current government or not. 362 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:31,320 Speaker 16: Well, it's the best thing I've seen in my time. 363 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:35,479 Speaker 16: We've got a champion in Minister Jones. He's a champion 364 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 16: for oceans and fisheries and that obviously involves aguaculture, but 365 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:43,960 Speaker 16: he's also a real champion for regional development and that's 366 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:48,200 Speaker 16: where aquaculture takes place, and things like last year we 367 00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:52,200 Speaker 16: saw the extemer durations of a coastal premise for marine farms. 368 00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:55,200 Speaker 16: Towards the end of the year was the fast track approvals. 369 00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:58,879 Speaker 16: And I look at the fast Track approvals and say, well, 370 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:01,720 Speaker 16: that almost takes us back to the first I don't know, 371 00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:04,600 Speaker 16: fifteen odd years of the roma, where there was a 372 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 16: more balanced, nuanced view and assessing things that unfortunately, there 373 00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:15,480 Speaker 16: was a court decision in the early teens, and that 374 00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:19,359 Speaker 16: made it a very binary view. Mere fact that something, 375 00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 16: you know that something could have an adverse effect, you 376 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:25,920 Speaker 16: didn't even get to the chance to demonstrate how you 377 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:30,200 Speaker 16: could mitigate and adapt was simply a hard no. And 378 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:34,160 Speaker 16: I think I have a hope in the fast track approvals. 379 00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:37,520 Speaker 16: One obviously the shortened time frame, to the certainty so 380 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:40,800 Speaker 16: you know where they're on you're after, and three a 381 00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:43,920 Speaker 16: more nuanced approach that could be the circuit breaker to 382 00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:47,160 Speaker 16: unless the opportunities for aquaculture fantastic. 383 00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:50,440 Speaker 2: So eight hundred million, so you're confident because eight hundred million. 384 00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:52,520 Speaker 2: There's a big gap between eight hundred million and another 385 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 2: four billion over ten years. So if you get the 386 00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 2: regulation out of the way, your foot's on the pedal. 387 00:18:58,960 --> 00:18:59,160 Speaker 17: Yeah. 388 00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:03,000 Speaker 16: Absolutely, And of course the Westpac report talked to other 389 00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:06,840 Speaker 16: aspects of the marine economy, but look, I'm on Bolish 390 00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:11,359 Speaker 16: for aquaculture. We can get an extra two points something billion, 391 00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:15,200 Speaker 16: I say, relatively easy. It will still take some time, 392 00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:19,080 Speaker 16: and of course you still need the investment and the 393 00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:20,760 Speaker 16: confidence that the demonstration. 394 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:22,600 Speaker 3: But the one thing I'm. 395 00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:26,120 Speaker 16: Very confident on is the market demand for our wonderful products. 396 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:29,960 Speaker 16: And we currently we're the King Salmon, the Champagne of salmon, 397 00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:32,680 Speaker 16: popular all over the world, and Sacre I've got this 398 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:37,600 Speaker 16: chef in America is organizing a symposium, a very influential 399 00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:44,879 Speaker 16: guy and he's desperate to feature New Zealand salmon our productions, 400 00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:49,320 Speaker 16: so constrained that we're struggling to be to meet his needs. 401 00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:53,240 Speaker 2: Good problem to have. Let's hope Shane gets on with 402 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:55,080 Speaker 2: it and we can get you back on the program 403 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:58,920 Speaker 2: when you crack the four billion, Gary, appreciate it, Gary Hooper, Aquaculture, 404 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:01,240 Speaker 2: New Zealand.

That really does sum it up, doesn't it? 450 00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:08,680 Speaker 2: Does it feel like that it does? It really does. 451 00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:13,040 Speaker 18: I know that this current Russian invasion of Ukraine started 452 00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 18: three years ago and it's been you know, we've talked 453 00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:16,879 Speaker 18: about often enough, it's been on the doorstep for a 454 00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:20,040 Speaker 18: long time. But I think today we really do get 455 00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:24,120 Speaker 18: the feeling with what we've got eight heads of governments 456 00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:26,520 Speaker 18: of European nations, plus the head of NATO, the head 457 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:30,800 Speaker 18: of the EU. Here in Paris, talking about how the 458 00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:36,280 Speaker 18: future road map of European security will pan out without 459 00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:37,560 Speaker 18: the Americans. 460 00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:37,879 Speaker 2: Being on their side. 461 00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:41,480 Speaker 18: So really, Mike, I've seen a lot of my career, 462 00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:43,760 Speaker 18: but this is the first time I've really thought, gosh, 463 00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:47,080 Speaker 18: the ground is really changing and no one knows where 464 00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:50,040 Speaker 18: it's going to go, simply because there are so many 465 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:57,400 Speaker 18: confused remarks, opinions, and ideas coming from the Trump administration, 466 00:22:58,080 --> 00:23:01,040 Speaker 18: not only in Washington, but also what Europeans heard over 467 00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:08,440 Speaker 18: the weekend about not just America's involvement with securing Europe's security, 468 00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:12,520 Speaker 18: that commitment to europe security, but also your other things 469 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:15,000 Speaker 18: like what's going to happen to Ukraine, what's going to 470 00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:17,720 Speaker 18: happen with Russia, whether the Russia is going to be 471 00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:20,720 Speaker 18: allowed back in so many confused messages, and to have 472 00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:24,440 Speaker 18: so many heads of government get together and say, wow, 473 00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:26,600 Speaker 18: this is important, We've got to get together and sort 474 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 18: something out. 475 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:28,960 Speaker 2: Well, it's all very well to get together and say wow, 476 00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 2: what actually are they going to do? This is the 477 00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:36,639 Speaker 2: big question? And can they do it? Do they have 478 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:37,560 Speaker 2: the money to do it? 479 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:40,359 Speaker 18: Here's what they're going to try and do. We've heard 480 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:43,480 Speaker 18: what just in the last twenty four hours. The UK 481 00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:46,800 Speaker 18: kes Starmer has said that if there is a ceasefire 482 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:50,880 Speaker 18: then the British would be happy to deploy troops. 483 00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:51,639 Speaker 2: In some manner. 484 00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:53,960 Speaker 18: We don't know how that would be. Let's think back 485 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,920 Speaker 18: last year. That was exactly the same idea that French 486 00:23:57,000 --> 00:24:00,200 Speaker 18: President Emmanuel Macron came up with. He was taught talking 487 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:05,160 Speaker 18: about not having French troops actually in Ukraine, but having 488 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:09,160 Speaker 18: seen French troops along the borders with Ukraine. That would 489 00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:12,240 Speaker 18: free up some of their border patrol personnel to be 490 00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:14,760 Speaker 18: able to go and be on the front line. So 491 00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:15,720 Speaker 18: we're looking at that. 492 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:17,200 Speaker 3: What else could they do. 493 00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:20,200 Speaker 18: The big thing they've got to do, Mike, is find money. 494 00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:23,200 Speaker 18: They need to be able to spend and spend big 495 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:26,600 Speaker 18: on European security. So what they're going to talk about 496 00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:28,960 Speaker 18: there is how do they do it. Do they raise 497 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:33,399 Speaker 18: the debt ceiling? Do they really antagonize the Americans by 498 00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 18: upping all the procurement for just European firms. All these 499 00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:41,080 Speaker 18: are on the table, but certainly the big thing they 500 00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:43,679 Speaker 18: need is they need to come out and they need 501 00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:47,040 Speaker 18: to say very clearly, we know we're in a difficult position. 502 00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:48,720 Speaker 18: We're going for clarity. 503 00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:49,840 Speaker 17: This is what we need. 504 00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:53,840 Speaker 18: And the other big point, of course, is these talks 505 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:55,760 Speaker 18: that are going to be going on in the Middle 506 00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:59,119 Speaker 18: East between the Americans and the Russians. They're going to 507 00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:02,040 Speaker 18: stand there and hopefully within the next couple of hours 508 00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:05,040 Speaker 18: they will say Ukraine has to be part of those talks, 509 00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 18: and the EU has to be part of those talks. 510 00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:10,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, good luck with that. John Major on watching 511 00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:13,800 Speaker 2: him yesterday, America's isolation was creating a power vacuum that 512 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:16,600 Speaker 2: would embolden nations like Russia and China, and that there 513 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:20,679 Speaker 2: was no doubt Russia would invade elsewhere before long. Are 514 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:22,280 Speaker 2: that all the people in the room you just talked 515 00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:25,120 Speaker 2: about going here? Here to that broad sentiment. 516 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:30,800 Speaker 18: Absolutely, there really has been a feeling since that phone 517 00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:34,760 Speaker 18: call between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin last week, there 518 00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:38,840 Speaker 18: really has been a feeling that the US is moving 519 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:42,200 Speaker 18: away from Europe. It's no longer going to regard Europe 520 00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:45,359 Speaker 18: as its security priority. The focus will shift to China. 521 00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:51,760 Speaker 18: That will give Russia a chance to actually carry out 522 00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:54,400 Speaker 18: more of the type or at least threaten to carry 523 00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:58,920 Speaker 18: out the type of invasions that they've been doing in Ukraine. 524 00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:04,280 Speaker 18: When you look at what Putin and Trump were talking about. 525 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:08,800 Speaker 18: Putin was talking about limiting native forces in Eastern Europe, 526 00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:13,159 Speaker 18: saying that Ukraine couldn't join NATO. These are all the 527 00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:17,119 Speaker 18: old talking points, Mike. And it's interesting that Putin is 528 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:21,280 Speaker 18: only talking about his view of Eastern Europe, those countries 529 00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:24,680 Speaker 18: that are alongside Russia, alongside Vilarus, and he wants them 530 00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:27,000 Speaker 18: to be within the Russian sphere of influence. 531 00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 2: Right, Hey, listen, I'm out of time, but I'm deeply 532 00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:33,520 Speaker 2: interested in Germany this weekend. What chance the AfD wins, 533 00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:36,879 Speaker 2: What chance the AfD wins and conform some sort of government. 534 00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:40,640 Speaker 18: They will win big according to opinion polls, they will 535 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:43,360 Speaker 18: get at least twenty percent of the votes. But again, Mike, 536 00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:48,000 Speaker 18: it's coalition government, so they won't have enough to possibly 537 00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:50,440 Speaker 18: it looks unlikely anyway, they won't have enough to be 538 00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:54,080 Speaker 18: the lead in the coalition. But certainly we're looking at 539 00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:57,840 Speaker 18: possibly May before they get a coalition agreement before with 540 00:26:58,040 --> 00:26:59,720 Speaker 18: the parties that will go in, which is a bad 541 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:01,639 Speaker 18: time for Germany to be with our government. 542 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:04,760 Speaker 2: I reckon talk next week. Appreciate it. Catherine Field. Literally 543 00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:07,840 Speaker 2: history unfolding before us. It's such an interesting time. The Irish, 544 00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:10,600 Speaker 2: by the way I'm reading this morning, speaking of Europe, 545 00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:13,320 Speaker 2: they're goods. Exports to the United States search thirty four percent. 546 00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:16,200 Speaker 2: Under normal circumstances, that will be fantastic, except when you've 547 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:18,080 Speaker 2: got a president who doesn't like that sort of business. 548 00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:22,119 Speaker 2: Because the flip side imports from the US fell, so 549 00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:24,199 Speaker 2: that's called a surplus. He doesn't like it, so they 550 00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:26,160 Speaker 2: can stand by for some terrif action as well. Nine 551 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:26,680 Speaker 2: away from. 552 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:31,080 Speaker 1: Seven the Mike Hosking Breakfast with a Vita Retirement Communities 553 00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:32,480 Speaker 1: News Togstead be Mike. 554 00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:35,720 Speaker 2: What's wrong were their own coal? The answer is it's 555 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:38,200 Speaker 2: not right for Huntley. Huntley comes from a time where 556 00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:39,920 Speaker 2: you need the Indonesian style. We use a bit of 557 00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:42,359 Speaker 2: our own coal. That just doesn't suit it. Mike's taking 558 00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 2: Trump to get involved, to finally get the EU off 559 00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:46,280 Speaker 2: their asses. Poulock to be frank, I couldn't agree with 560 00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:48,040 Speaker 2: you all. Rutter sort of called us out the other 561 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:50,200 Speaker 2: day at one percent of GDP, but the number of 562 00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:52,760 Speaker 2: countries that never promised two percent, they never paid it 563 00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:55,680 Speaker 2: until Trump last time Trump won came along and said 564 00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:58,200 Speaker 2: start paying some dough and they finally got them into action. Mike, 565 00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:00,399 Speaker 2: how refreshing to hear someone actually being op to mystic 566 00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:04,120 Speaker 2: on your program. Go mister Hooper, love hearing about king salmon. Yeah, 567 00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:07,440 Speaker 2: the aquaculture. There's a lot going on this economy. Unfortunately, 568 00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:11,119 Speaker 2: it's the same stuff and they're all doing the heavy lifting. 569 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:13,520 Speaker 2: It's the other stuff. It's the tourism, the productivity that 570 00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:15,359 Speaker 2: we need to get our act together on five minutes 571 00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:18,200 Speaker 2: away from seven, all the ins. 572 00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:21,920 Speaker 3: And the outs. It's the fizz with business favor. Take 573 00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:24,640 Speaker 3: your business productivity to the next line, the newest. 574 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:26,760 Speaker 2: Part of the problem, like the old coalface, and we're finding, unfortunately, 575 00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:30,000 Speaker 2: even more disengaged workers and more lack of productivity warnings. 576 00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:32,600 Speaker 2: This is new research this morning from the consultancy firm amped. 577 00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:35,359 Speaker 2: It found that career growth was apparently high on the 578 00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:37,920 Speaker 2: agenda for our current workforce, not a lot of companies 579 00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:40,920 Speaker 2: offering it. Allegedly forty percent of workers so they've got 580 00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:43,440 Speaker 2: no clarity about their next career step from their employer. 581 00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:46,320 Speaker 2: Fifty eight percent so it was only somewhat clear. Half 582 00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:48,800 Speaker 2: so they don't feel supported by their employer to watch 583 00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:52,680 Speaker 2: reach what the next step is. They're also overwhelmingly rating 584 00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:55,800 Speaker 2: their organizations poorly on development, lack of tools, lack of 585 00:28:55,840 --> 00:29:00,800 Speaker 2: framework to grow, lack of coaching, having minimal mentoring potentially lead, 586 00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:02,880 Speaker 2: they say, to thousands of workers looking for new roles 587 00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:05,120 Speaker 2: to get that level of growth they want, and it 588 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:08,120 Speaker 2: could mean an even bigger migration of talent. Before the 589 00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:12,200 Speaker 2: lack of job opportunities, these workers were disengaged and that 590 00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:15,120 Speaker 2: of course brings the business down. Study show a disengaged 591 00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:17,920 Speaker 2: worker in terms of productivity, only works to the level 592 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:20,400 Speaker 2: of eighty two percent of their salary and can reduce 593 00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 2: the productivity by thirty four percent. Yes, everyone's a mona, right, 594 00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:29,200 Speaker 2: we need to get back to Europe. Paul wood XBBC. 595 00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:31,240 Speaker 2: Of course he's having a look at what's going on 596 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:34,680 Speaker 2: in France. Literally as we speak, we'll talk with the 597 00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:37,400 Speaker 2: BBC's Russia correspondent. What do the Russians want out of this? 598 00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:40,680 Speaker 2: They're in Saudi Arabia with a little Marco. What do 599 00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:42,520 Speaker 2: they want? What are their red lines? Where are we 600 00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:45,120 Speaker 2: heading here? Brad Olson's got some numbers around this migration. 601 00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:47,760 Speaker 2: How bad it is? Is it reached bottom or were 602 00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:50,040 Speaker 2: still losing them left, right and center? What does it 603 00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:51,920 Speaker 2: mean for the country? God I wouldn't want to be 604 00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:54,360 Speaker 2: running the country. Hey, who's running the country, chrisph Lax. 605 00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:56,240 Speaker 2: And yet that's right, he's in as well, so he's 606 00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:58,600 Speaker 2: got a whole bunch of stuff to answer. And Graham Norton, 607 00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:02,200 Speaker 2: old friend of the program, he's coming after raid as well. 608 00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:04,760 Speaker 2: Up at the News which was next to TheBus talks. 609 00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:09,760 Speaker 1: The only report you need to start your day on 610 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:14,160 Speaker 1: my casting breakfast with the range rover bela designed to 611 00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:15,760 Speaker 1: intrigue and use talks. 612 00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 2: Dead be seven So Europe on the brink, Jade advance 613 00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:20,320 Speaker 2: rolls into town, gives them a few home truths. The 614 00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:23,760 Speaker 2: talks as regards peace and Ukraine appear to possibly involve Europe. 615 00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:26,360 Speaker 2: Possibly not so the emergency Summitt hillbb A Night, former 616 00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:29,320 Speaker 2: BBC Foreign correspondent Paul Woodsbeck, whether that's Paul, good morning, 617 00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:32,560 Speaker 2: good morning. You've seen a lot. Is this history in 618 00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:33,000 Speaker 2: the making? 619 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:37,840 Speaker 5: Well, if history has a lot of panic and scrambling 620 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:41,360 Speaker 5: and trying to make yourself relevant, then yes, this is 621 00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:47,120 Speaker 5: Europe completely alarmed by President Trump telephoning the Russian leader 622 00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:51,640 Speaker 5: Vladimir Putin, apparently without consulting European allies. And you said 623 00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 5: in your introduction, will Europe be involved in the talks. Well, 624 00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:58,720 Speaker 5: apparently they won't, but certainly not as they are getting 625 00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:01,760 Speaker 5: underway in Saudi Arabia. Now, what's happening in Saudi Arabia 626 00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:05,560 Speaker 5: is much wider than just a Ukraine piece effort. This 627 00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:09,000 Speaker 5: is about the US resetting its relations with Russia. But 628 00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:11,800 Speaker 5: the Europeans are worried that this will have huge implications, 629 00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:15,600 Speaker 5: not just for Ukraine but for European security. They're trying 630 00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:17,400 Speaker 5: to make themselves relevant. We'll have to see what they 631 00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:17,800 Speaker 5: come up with. 632 00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:20,280 Speaker 2: The JD Van's comments the other day, the fear within, 633 00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:22,000 Speaker 2: the problems within. Did he have a point? 634 00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:27,040 Speaker 5: I suppose it depends where you stand on issues of 635 00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:30,280 Speaker 5: free speech in a reigne of European countries Britain, Germany, 636 00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:37,760 Speaker 5: And he was making a point about Europe's worries over Ukraine. Well, 637 00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 5: hang on a minute. He's saying that the enemy is 638 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:44,040 Speaker 5: really within and it's your own weakness. So these are 639 00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:49,160 Speaker 5: the kind of almost trolling comments that President Trump succeeds 640 00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:51,560 Speaker 5: in making. Very well, it's an attempt to throw the 641 00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:54,080 Speaker 5: board up in the air and reset the pieces. But 642 00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:57,600 Speaker 5: certainly doing that, it's very hard to distinguish what is 643 00:31:57,640 --> 00:32:00,320 Speaker 5: a negotiating tactic on the behalf of the US government 644 00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:04,080 Speaker 5: and what is a really heartfelt position, but certainly it's 645 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:06,040 Speaker 5: having an effect. That's why they're meeting in Paris. 646 00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:06,280 Speaker 17: Now. 647 00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:10,840 Speaker 2: Does this potentially in bolden Europe and NATO to go. 648 00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:13,720 Speaker 2: We've been caught badly out here. We need for the 649 00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:16,360 Speaker 2: future to do something more substantive than what we've been doing. 650 00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:16,640 Speaker 17: Or not. 651 00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:23,080 Speaker 5: Well. The Polish leaders said that that the countries of Europe, 652 00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:25,800 Speaker 5: and I suppose that the UK is well, UK's geographically 653 00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:27,960 Speaker 5: in Europe still but not politically. In Europe they will 654 00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:32,160 Speaker 5: go up their defense spending. But President Zelenski, for instance, 655 00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:35,000 Speaker 5: says it would take two hundred thousand troops to police 656 00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:38,440 Speaker 5: the fifteen hundred mile front line if there was a 657 00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:40,520 Speaker 5: peace agreement. And by the way, the Ukrainians say they 658 00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:42,440 Speaker 5: can be no peace agreement without them, and they're not 659 00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:45,960 Speaker 5: at the table. In Saudi Arabia, the former head of 660 00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:47,800 Speaker 5: the British Army, Lord Danet, says it would take one 661 00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:51,920 Speaker 5: hundred thousand. Well, Britain's got a pretty hollow army now 662 00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:56,200 Speaker 5: of seventy six thousand, and Britain, along with France, they're 663 00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:59,840 Speaker 5: the most effective armies in Europe. Where are these hundred thousand, 664 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:02,040 Speaker 5: two hundred thousand going to come from? I saw one 665 00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:04,760 Speaker 5: estimate from one analyst saying that three brigades or fifteen 666 00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:07,200 Speaker 5: thousands all that Europe could come up with. And then 667 00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:10,680 Speaker 5: if Europe does have these troops, is America going to backstop? 668 00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:14,160 Speaker 5: That is this essentially NATO membership for Ukraine and all 669 00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:18,480 Speaker 5: but name. These are all questions which I think show 670 00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:20,960 Speaker 5: the huge mountain the Europeans have to climb, But at 671 00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:24,280 Speaker 5: the moment they're just scrambling to become relevant by offering something. 672 00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:26,640 Speaker 2: Paul, good to have you on the program, as always 673 00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:29,240 Speaker 2: appreciate your time form a BBC Foreign correspondent, Paul Wood. 674 00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:32,320 Speaker 2: It's tim minutes past seven. Pas these you know, so 675 00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:34,720 Speaker 2: called piece talks in Saudi Arabia. It's the US and 676 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:36,840 Speaker 2: Russia And at this point that appears about it. So 677 00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:39,680 Speaker 2: who's there? What comes out of it? Olga Imschina is 678 00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:42,000 Speaker 2: with the BBC and is well, it's a very good 679 00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:48,360 Speaker 2: money to you. Is she others or not? Is there anything? No, 680 00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:50,280 Speaker 2: she's not. We'll get the phone sorted out. Let me 681 00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:53,120 Speaker 2: come back. It's ten minutes past seven. Find out whether 682 00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:59,200 Speaker 2: the we'll find out whether the paskiing even begun and 683 00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:02,640 Speaker 2: who's actually there the Reserve Bank just quickly. That'll be 684 00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:04,920 Speaker 2: the big talking point for tomorrow. Everybody says. As I 685 00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:07,400 Speaker 2: mentioned earlier on in the program, fifty basis points. No 686 00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:10,160 Speaker 2: one's arguing about that. But where we go from there 687 00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:13,640 Speaker 2: is the interesting bit. The ASB have got a couple 688 00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:15,799 Speaker 2: of twenty five pointers, so fifty and then twenty five 689 00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:19,040 Speaker 2: and twenty five A and Z say fifty to twenty 690 00:34:19,160 --> 00:34:21,759 Speaker 2: five and then that's it. They think neutral is about 691 00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:23,720 Speaker 2: three and a half. Kei we Bank are the most strident. 692 00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:26,600 Speaker 2: The track forecast of three and a half percent cash 693 00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:28,319 Speaker 2: rate by the end of the year. The track being 694 00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:32,359 Speaker 2: the Reserve Bank that implied seventy five basis points this year, 695 00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:36,360 Speaker 2: which is fifty points in A twenty five. They're forecasting 696 00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:38,840 Speaker 2: three percent cash rate to arrive in twenty twenty seven, 697 00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:42,400 Speaker 2: so they Kiwibank have disagreed with the track from its 698 00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:46,760 Speaker 2: very inception, where it's two percent target inflation rate virtually achieved. 699 00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:49,399 Speaker 2: We believe the RB needs to take their hand off 700 00:34:49,640 --> 00:34:55,439 Speaker 2: the handbrake and put policy into neutral. So they thought 701 00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:59,520 Speaker 2: that from November last year, far too hawkish. So we'll 702 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:02,719 Speaker 2: will be something we talk about tomorrow on the program. Right, 703 00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:05,919 Speaker 2: let's hopefully think that old with Us will go good morning, 704 00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:11,200 Speaker 2: you with us morning. Yes, I'm here, very good. Indeed, Levrov, Marca, Rubio, 705 00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:14,320 Speaker 2: who else is there? What's the expectation from Russia? 706 00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:14,719 Speaker 1: Do we know? 707 00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:19,160 Speaker 19: Oh, that's the I guess the question which is everyone's 708 00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:22,360 Speaker 19: mind at the moment. What we see from Labal's public 709 00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:27,600 Speaker 19: statement he made briefly before boarding the plane to soud 710 00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:31,800 Speaker 19: Arabia is that he feels quite imboltant, quite pleased with 711 00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:35,160 Speaker 19: the current position in which Russia is. So he made 712 00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:39,360 Speaker 19: a few scenic and bold comments, sort of quite provocative, 713 00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:42,920 Speaker 19: but you know, that's the usual state of affairs for him. 714 00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:46,840 Speaker 19: So publicly, Russia presents itself as if it has like 715 00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:50,360 Speaker 19: almost up a hand on those negotiations. But what Warrov 716 00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:53,480 Speaker 19: is not mentioning is that there are a few issues 717 00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:57,120 Speaker 19: which are very important to Russia. For example, Ukraine still 718 00:35:57,160 --> 00:35:59,840 Speaker 19: controls the part of Russian territory in the coast region 719 00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:02,920 Speaker 19: which he has gained as a part of last year's 720 00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:06,480 Speaker 19: incursion into Russia, and this is something which borders put 721 00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:09,320 Speaker 19: in a lot, but which he doesn't like to be 722 00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:13,680 Speaker 19: talking about so and in order to achieve Putting the objectives. 723 00:36:13,719 --> 00:36:16,600 Speaker 19: In order to achieve that, Russia still needs to give 724 00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:19,839 Speaker 19: something in to trade something off and what they will 725 00:36:19,880 --> 00:36:22,520 Speaker 19: be ready to give and train that, you know, which 726 00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:26,880 Speaker 19: will show how really these negotiations are developing. So they 727 00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:29,360 Speaker 19: tried to put on a grave face, but it's not 728 00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:31,719 Speaker 19: all nice and funny for them. 729 00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:34,439 Speaker 2: I'm leaping a hitch slightly. But the way I see 730 00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:39,440 Speaker 2: this unfolding is Russia gets some territory, Ukraine gets some 731 00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:43,200 Speaker 2: guarantees about future invasions, America gets some rare ersts and 732 00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:45,760 Speaker 2: some minerals, and that's about it. Is that possible? 733 00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:51,279 Speaker 19: Well, it's possible, but details a crucial here. You know, 734 00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:56,359 Speaker 19: what are the security guarantees for Ukraine? What Russia calls 735 00:36:56,400 --> 00:37:00,480 Speaker 19: security guarantees for itself. We have already heard that Britain 736 00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:03,560 Speaker 19: is suggesting to put its troops on the ground in 737 00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:07,759 Speaker 19: Ukraine as a part of a security guarantee. And that's 738 00:37:07,840 --> 00:37:10,719 Speaker 19: something which can be a nightmare for Putting, because he 739 00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:14,640 Speaker 19: claims he started this war, this invasion in order to 740 00:37:14,760 --> 00:37:18,840 Speaker 19: push native forces away. And now he's you know, half stuff. 741 00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:24,200 Speaker 19: He's a half step away from having native soldiers exactly 742 00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:27,360 Speaker 19: on the border of the territory he is controlling. 743 00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:31,600 Speaker 2: In Russia itself, do people want the end of the war? 744 00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:34,399 Speaker 2: Are they following this closely? Do they see this as 745 00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:35,080 Speaker 2: the conclusion? 746 00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:39,680 Speaker 19: Yes, of course people in Russia are following this closely. 747 00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:42,479 Speaker 19: And it's hard to say what the mood is because 748 00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:45,600 Speaker 19: Russia is an auster retaliant country and if you speak 749 00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:49,400 Speaker 19: too much or speak against the government line, you easily 750 00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:52,920 Speaker 19: end up in prison for seven eight years. But all 751 00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:55,560 Speaker 19: the posts are showing that the majority of the population 752 00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:58,839 Speaker 19: are eager for this war to stop on the one hand. 753 00:37:59,080 --> 00:38:02,320 Speaker 19: On the other hand, well at least ten twenty percent 754 00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:05,360 Speaker 19: of opulation are quite hawkish. So for them, but you 755 00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:10,680 Speaker 19: will need to somehow show a nice face, so he 756 00:38:10,760 --> 00:38:14,120 Speaker 19: will need to sell them this piece deals so not 757 00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:16,800 Speaker 19: so easy. I mean, Putting doesn't have to worry about elections. 758 00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:19,520 Speaker 19: Of course it's an also Italian state, but still he'll 759 00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:21,440 Speaker 19: need to find a way to sell it to the 760 00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:22,160 Speaker 19: Russian public. 761 00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:24,040 Speaker 2: Oh, I'm good to talk to you. Appreciate it very much, 762 00:38:24,080 --> 00:38:28,000 Speaker 2: olga Ipshina, BBC Russia correspond to fifteen past seven. 763 00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:33,360 Speaker 1: The Mike Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered 764 00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:34,400 Speaker 1: by news Talks at be. 765 00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:37,200 Speaker 2: Chris Lux and Graham not and still the come eighteen 766 00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:40,719 Speaker 2: past migration numbers. Broadly things are settling down. Still a 767 00:38:40,760 --> 00:38:42,399 Speaker 2: lot of people leaving there a lot of them thirty 768 00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:44,320 Speaker 2: eight percent in factor eighteen to thirty year old. So 769 00:38:44,360 --> 00:38:47,640 Speaker 2: what do we make of it? Inframetrics principal economist Brad olsenback, Well, 770 00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:50,600 Speaker 2: this morning, mane, good morning as well. Migration numbers. How 771 00:38:50,680 --> 00:38:52,360 Speaker 2: does this all in? Are we're going to end up 772 00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:54,799 Speaker 2: exporting people or have we reached the bottom? Do you reckon? 773 00:38:55,880 --> 00:38:57,960 Speaker 20: Well, it's a been hard to tell at the moment. Certainly, 774 00:38:58,120 --> 00:39:00,839 Speaker 20: up until recently, the head being fair that we would 775 00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:03,520 Speaker 20: have more people that we would lose than would come 776 00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:06,480 Speaker 20: in over a year. The trends were certainly shifting back. 777 00:39:06,840 --> 00:39:09,239 Speaker 20: If you look back over the twenty twenty three year, 778 00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:12,120 Speaker 20: we had nearly one hundred and thirty thousand more people 779 00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:15,000 Speaker 20: moved to New Zealand then left on a long term basis. 780 00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:18,520 Speaker 20: Come through to the twenty twenty four calendar year and 781 00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:21,120 Speaker 20: that number was only around twenty seven thousand, So its 782 00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:24,320 Speaker 20: still positive, but you know, one hundred thousand people different 783 00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:28,520 Speaker 20: the more recent monthly figures are suggesting that although there's 784 00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:31,959 Speaker 20: a much lower number of people coming in month by month, 785 00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:34,960 Speaker 20: it's starting to pick up just a slight touch, which 786 00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:38,280 Speaker 20: feels a little bit odd given that the jobs market 787 00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:41,320 Speaker 20: is still pretty weak, the unemployment rates up, it's harder 788 00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:44,080 Speaker 20: to find work. But I suspect talking to a few 789 00:39:44,200 --> 00:39:46,919 Speaker 20: businesses that there are some parts of the economy where 790 00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:50,080 Speaker 20: we need some more skilled workers. And so although we 791 00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:52,960 Speaker 20: haven't got just you know, this huge info, there does 792 00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:55,440 Speaker 20: seem to be a little bit more activity happening there 793 00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:57,040 Speaker 20: where we're trying to sort of fill the gaps. 794 00:39:57,200 --> 00:39:59,880 Speaker 2: Here's what I worry about, beyond the numbers they may 795 00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:03,480 Speaker 2: coming from China, the Philippines, et cetera. Are they filling 796 00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:05,840 Speaker 2: the gaps? And just because it's one out, one in, 797 00:40:06,200 --> 00:40:07,879 Speaker 2: are we replacing what we've lost. 798 00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:11,480 Speaker 20: It's a bit tough to make that last assessment. Because 799 00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:13,719 Speaker 20: we have a pretty good idea of who's coming in 800 00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:16,000 Speaker 20: and the skills that they bring, we still don't have 801 00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:18,480 Speaker 20: really any good tracking on the sort of skills that 802 00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:21,520 Speaker 20: we're losing. There's a lot of anecdote and anecdata, but 803 00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:24,960 Speaker 20: sort of none of the sort of cold hard facts 804 00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:27,880 Speaker 20: that would normally rely on I suspect that in general 805 00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:30,480 Speaker 20: we are probably seeing most of those who are coming 806 00:40:30,560 --> 00:40:31,480 Speaker 20: in are coming in. 807 00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:32,320 Speaker 6: To fill the gaps. 808 00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:35,280 Speaker 20: It's unusual that we'd be sort of at the moment 809 00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:39,000 Speaker 20: that New Zealand businesses would be struggling with roles across 810 00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:41,560 Speaker 20: the board, and so generally they won't try and issue 811 00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:44,480 Speaker 20: a visa for that. But I think there's also a 812 00:40:44,560 --> 00:40:47,200 Speaker 20: question at the moment around particularly our young people. We 813 00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:50,360 Speaker 20: know that there's a big flow out over to the 814 00:40:50,520 --> 00:40:53,399 Speaker 20: likes of Australia and similar and so although we might 815 00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:56,040 Speaker 20: be seeing the right or sort of similar trends at 816 00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:58,919 Speaker 20: the moment for where the economy is at in terms 817 00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:02,400 Speaker 20: of sort of reduced some of those below the surface trends, 818 00:41:02,480 --> 00:41:04,640 Speaker 20: the fact that we're losing a lot of New Zealanders 819 00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:07,439 Speaker 20: and also the fact that we've sort of seen such 820 00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:11,080 Speaker 20: a huge shift around in that foreign migration does make 821 00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:13,280 Speaker 20: you wonder about sort of where we go in the future. 822 00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:16,840 Speaker 20: Do we have sort of sustainable population growth or do 823 00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:19,640 Speaker 20: we just have these sort of massive, you know, huge 824 00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:22,480 Speaker 20: peaks and troughs in our migration system. And who knows 825 00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:23,200 Speaker 20: how to plan for that? 826 00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:26,040 Speaker 2: All right, bra I appreciate the expertise. There's always deportation. 827 00:41:26,239 --> 00:41:28,399 Speaker 2: There's a tricky old situation.

How fascinating is the 850 00:42:34,360 --> 00:42:37,040 Speaker 2: coup marqueesa and how would you like to be Chris peak? 851 00:42:37,120 --> 00:42:38,919 Speaker 2: The minister in charge of making the callers to whether 852 00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:41,480 Speaker 2: to deport people. And in a way, this is a 853 00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:44,280 Speaker 2: singular little example of what the Americans deal with millions 854 00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:46,880 Speaker 2: of times over there seems no dispute. Eighteen year old 855 00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:50,319 Speaker 2: Darmand's parents are overstairs. Darman was born here, it's his home. 856 00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:52,440 Speaker 2: So does he get deported? And do his parents get 857 00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:55,480 Speaker 2: deported if you follow the law. The answer seems simple, 858 00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:58,439 Speaker 2: yes they do. It's not Darmond's fault. His parents broke 859 00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:00,760 Speaker 2: the law, and that's the birth's debate. Of course, in America, 860 00:43:01,000 --> 00:43:03,080 Speaker 2: the illegals come across the border, they have a child. 861 00:43:03,400 --> 00:43:05,680 Speaker 2: The child is an illegal, and yet it's not their fault. 862 00:43:05,760 --> 00:43:07,640 Speaker 2: It is their home, it's the only country they know. 863 00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:11,440 Speaker 2: A democratic administration gives you leniency, a republican not so much. 864 00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:15,120 Speaker 2: There are as there always are questions around how you 865 00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:18,799 Speaker 2: can be here as an overstayer for many, many many years. Also, 866 00:43:18,920 --> 00:43:21,239 Speaker 2: I assume these are decent people I mean if they 867 00:43:21,239 --> 00:43:23,880 Speaker 2: were criminals or reprobates, the decisions would be a lot easier. 868 00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:26,640 Speaker 2: Of course, So family who work, contribute to the country 869 00:43:26,800 --> 00:43:29,120 Speaker 2: call it their own. They want to stay. No shortage 870 00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:31,759 Speaker 2: of emotion in the old argument. Now I'm sure part 871 00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:34,680 Speaker 2: of their issue at some point once they technically became 872 00:43:34,760 --> 00:43:37,000 Speaker 2: overstay as they feared getting caught. You know, after I 873 00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:38,800 Speaker 2: don't know, a week, a month, a year, do you 874 00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:41,160 Speaker 2: come clean to your tidy year affairs up? Do you 875 00:43:41,239 --> 00:43:43,480 Speaker 2: plead for leniency, hope for the best, do you try 876 00:43:43,520 --> 00:43:46,600 Speaker 2: your luck? Surely in doing what they did, they must 877 00:43:46,680 --> 00:43:49,360 Speaker 2: have known the game at some point for some reason 878 00:43:49,400 --> 00:43:52,840 Speaker 2: would be up. Or maybe after eight years or nine years, 879 00:43:53,040 --> 00:43:55,680 Speaker 2: or fifteen or twenty one years, maybe they put it 880 00:43:55,760 --> 00:43:57,719 Speaker 2: to one side. Maybe they would never be found out, 881 00:43:57,760 --> 00:43:58,680 Speaker 2: they thought to themselves. 882 00:43:58,719 --> 00:43:59,759 Speaker 17: So what to do? 883 00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:03,040 Speaker 2: The section is three seventy eight of the Immigration Act. 884 00:44:03,400 --> 00:44:06,719 Speaker 2: The Minister can apparently do anything he likes. Easy to say, 885 00:44:06,840 --> 00:44:10,080 Speaker 2: go on, let them stay. But you set the precedent, 886 00:44:10,120 --> 00:44:12,000 Speaker 2: don't you. And that's the trouble with powerful jobs and 887 00:44:12,040 --> 00:44:14,719 Speaker 2: big decisions, hardly ever simple. It may well be the 888 00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:17,239 Speaker 2: hardest thing to think ever does unless you get well 889 00:44:17,320 --> 00:44:19,040 Speaker 2: unless he lets them stay. Of course that would be 890 00:44:19,120 --> 00:44:23,120 Speaker 2: easier make you feel good and probably with minimal pushback 891 00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:26,279 Speaker 2: me Mike, I see you're quite positive about the youth 892 00:44:26,360 --> 00:44:28,640 Speaker 2: camp yesterday. TV and Z. On the other hand, yestvs 893 00:44:28,760 --> 00:44:30,600 Speaker 2: had a crack at the Prime Minister post cab yesterday. 894 00:44:30,640 --> 00:44:33,160 Speaker 2: In fact, they're all piled and it's funny to watch 895 00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:37,440 Speaker 2: a press gallery pylon because one starts and then everyone goes, 896 00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:39,800 Speaker 2: oh well on a piece of that action, and Luxem 897 00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:43,320 Speaker 2: becomes increasingly uncomfortable. They made, I thought a not unfair point. 898 00:44:43,719 --> 00:44:45,800 Speaker 2: It is true to say that Karen Shaw in the 899 00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:48,240 Speaker 2: early days were spreaking the good news around the military 900 00:44:48,320 --> 00:44:50,680 Speaker 2: style boot camps, and one had a job and some 901 00:44:50,800 --> 00:44:52,840 Speaker 2: were going into education. The story, if you've missed it, 902 00:44:52,920 --> 00:44:54,920 Speaker 2: there seems to be a claim summer back in the 903 00:44:55,560 --> 00:44:58,720 Speaker 2: justice process. But of course Luxeon's in a difficult position. 904 00:44:58,760 --> 00:45:00,200 Speaker 2: I defend him to the extent of you. You are 905 00:45:00,239 --> 00:45:03,240 Speaker 2: in the justice process. You are innocent until proven guilty, 906 00:45:03,239 --> 00:45:05,440 Speaker 2: and you can't go around bandying names and crimes and 907 00:45:05,600 --> 00:45:07,480 Speaker 2: accusations and fingers and all that sort of stuff. So 908 00:45:07,560 --> 00:45:11,320 Speaker 2: I get that bit. But it does seem that the 909 00:45:11,360 --> 00:45:15,000 Speaker 2: government were happy to talk positive and not so happy 910 00:45:15,080 --> 00:45:18,960 Speaker 2: to talk about the negative. But in the reportage yesterday, 911 00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:21,680 Speaker 2: and this is where the media is so slack, not 912 00:45:21,880 --> 00:45:23,959 Speaker 2: one story I saw mention the report that I mentioned 913 00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:26,719 Speaker 2: on this program yesterday. There is actually a report, an 914 00:45:26,760 --> 00:45:31,760 Speaker 2: official report, and the official report says the scheme actually 915 00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:35,120 Speaker 2: is good. And no one remarkably appeared to mention that. 916 00:45:36,920 --> 00:45:41,239 Speaker 3: New Zealand's voice of reason is Mike the Mic asking. 917 00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:44,839 Speaker 1: Breakfast with Bailey's real Estate finding the buyers others can't 918 00:45:45,000 --> 00:45:46,240 Speaker 1: use togs headbs. 919 00:45:45,960 --> 00:45:48,279 Speaker 2: Graham Norton's making the program after eight o'clock this morning, 920 00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:50,560 Speaker 2: twenty three minutes away from it. Chuesday Morning primeans to 921 00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:53,000 Speaker 2: Christoph luxeendo joins us, first, good morning to you. 922 00:45:53,960 --> 00:45:54,640 Speaker 13: Good morning Mike. 923 00:45:54,640 --> 00:45:56,480 Speaker 2: How I you today? Very well? Indeed, did you do 924 00:45:56,600 --> 00:45:58,239 Speaker 2: anything for Valentine's Day? 925 00:45:59,480 --> 00:46:00,680 Speaker 13: You know what? I didn't? 926 00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:03,040 Speaker 9: Actually, because every day is Valentine's Day and the luxe 927 00:46:03,080 --> 00:46:03,960 Speaker 9: and household. 928 00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:10,279 Speaker 2: Your wife is sick of hearing. It's a reason for no. 929 00:46:10,440 --> 00:46:12,839 Speaker 9: We sat down, I think we had dinner on our 930 00:46:12,960 --> 00:46:16,040 Speaker 9: on our laps, and I think we started watching there 931 00:46:16,120 --> 00:46:18,440 Speaker 9: was some Netflix show we started getting into, not the 932 00:46:18,480 --> 00:46:22,600 Speaker 9: Brian Apple side of vinegar that that terrible story about 933 00:46:22,640 --> 00:46:24,479 Speaker 9: social media influences and misleading people. 934 00:46:24,640 --> 00:46:28,360 Speaker 2: I've heard that crap. Brian Johnson, you are into Do 935 00:46:28,480 --> 00:46:29,800 Speaker 2: you think he's mad or not? 936 00:46:31,680 --> 00:46:32,400 Speaker 13: He's intense. 937 00:46:32,600 --> 00:46:35,200 Speaker 9: I mean, I just think you've got to enjoy life 938 00:46:35,320 --> 00:46:37,480 Speaker 9: as well somewhere along the way. But there's something that 939 00:46:37,560 --> 00:46:40,640 Speaker 9: he's doing that's at the edge, and that's always interesting 940 00:46:40,760 --> 00:46:43,680 Speaker 9: because he's obviously body hacking and trying to find a 941 00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:47,320 Speaker 9: way to age negatively age. But he'd be an interesting 942 00:46:47,360 --> 00:46:49,440 Speaker 9: guy to talk to if you could even get him 943 00:46:49,440 --> 00:46:49,799 Speaker 9: on your show. 944 00:46:49,880 --> 00:46:52,080 Speaker 2: But I think, well, Sammy's on and you talk to 945 00:46:52,120 --> 00:46:54,520 Speaker 2: Sammy every week, and no one's better at getting people 946 00:46:54,560 --> 00:46:55,040 Speaker 2: on the program. 947 00:46:55,239 --> 00:46:56,360 Speaker 13: He can do it. Sam will do it. 948 00:46:57,960 --> 00:47:03,360 Speaker 2: Either that or will sack him. Brian roach. He appears 949 00:47:03,440 --> 00:47:05,520 Speaker 2: to be very very good at what he does because 950 00:47:05,520 --> 00:47:07,720 Speaker 2: he's worked out the public service isn't up to scratch 951 00:47:08,160 --> 00:47:10,840 Speaker 2: and he's looking at blowing up departments. Is this doge 952 00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:11,640 Speaker 2: in Z style? 953 00:47:12,680 --> 00:47:14,919 Speaker 9: Well, I mean, first of all, he's an excellent hire, 954 00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:17,239 Speaker 9: and I've known Brian for a long time. He's going 955 00:47:17,280 --> 00:47:19,719 Speaker 9: to be great at this job. What we really want 956 00:47:19,840 --> 00:47:22,279 Speaker 9: is a much more efficient, effective public service. I want 957 00:47:22,320 --> 00:47:24,160 Speaker 9: him focused on a few things. We've got to get 958 00:47:24,200 --> 00:47:26,840 Speaker 9: the right leaders into these big agencies and big departments, 959 00:47:27,160 --> 00:47:29,319 Speaker 9: the big organizations, and when you get the right leader 960 00:47:29,320 --> 00:47:31,480 Speaker 9: at the top, it makes all the difference through the organization. 961 00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:34,440 Speaker 9: I also want them working hard on talent development. So 962 00:47:34,600 --> 00:47:36,520 Speaker 9: like you know, we've got probably two hundred and fifty 963 00:47:36,560 --> 00:47:39,880 Speaker 9: imagine fantastic public servants that you want to develop and 964 00:47:40,040 --> 00:47:42,520 Speaker 9: give them bigger jobs, give them opportunities to do stuff. 965 00:47:42,960 --> 00:47:43,640 Speaker 13: I think you're right. 966 00:47:43,719 --> 00:47:45,680 Speaker 9: We manage a lot of complexity and government. Is my 967 00:47:45,760 --> 00:47:48,000 Speaker 9: observation a year and a bit into this job. We 968 00:47:48,160 --> 00:47:50,160 Speaker 9: need much more simplicity and if that means sort of 969 00:47:50,200 --> 00:47:53,080 Speaker 9: sharpening up agencies and portfolios and simplifying all of that, 970 00:47:53,760 --> 00:47:55,560 Speaker 9: that would be great. And I think the other thing 971 00:47:55,600 --> 00:47:58,000 Speaker 9: I've asked him to focus on is, you know, we 972 00:47:58,120 --> 00:48:00,120 Speaker 9: need to think about the the media. Give me if 973 00:48:00,160 --> 00:48:02,160 Speaker 9: when I say this, but I think it's right, is 974 00:48:02,200 --> 00:48:04,400 Speaker 9: that the public is my customer, and you know, we 975 00:48:04,520 --> 00:48:07,200 Speaker 9: need these to be service led organizations that have customers, 976 00:48:07,200 --> 00:48:10,600 Speaker 9: which is the new Zealand public. And I think digitization 977 00:48:10,920 --> 00:48:13,879 Speaker 9: actually thinking through the customer issues as to what it's 978 00:48:13,960 --> 00:48:16,759 Speaker 9: like dealing with the government agency and how we use 979 00:48:16,840 --> 00:48:19,320 Speaker 9: digital skills in particular to do a better job of 980 00:48:19,960 --> 00:48:22,799 Speaker 9: better customer service is important. So you know, I think 981 00:48:22,840 --> 00:48:26,640 Speaker 9: we're really aligned, and I'm really excited about him because in. 982 00:48:26,640 --> 00:48:29,560 Speaker 2: The public service community see him and or you blowing 983 00:48:29,640 --> 00:48:33,160 Speaker 2: up some government departments they no longer may well. 984 00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:33,560 Speaker 13: Be the case. 985 00:48:33,600 --> 00:48:35,040 Speaker 9: I think, you know, where we've got a lot of 986 00:48:35,480 --> 00:48:38,840 Speaker 9: small agencies that lack scale is probably too many of 987 00:48:38,920 --> 00:48:42,000 Speaker 9: them at times that I want every agency really focused 988 00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:44,480 Speaker 9: on what its core business actually is. I want them 989 00:48:44,480 --> 00:48:47,200 Speaker 9: to be curious. I want them to actually be creating value. 990 00:48:47,680 --> 00:48:50,520 Speaker 9: I want them to be very customer focused. And so yep, 991 00:48:50,560 --> 00:48:51,960 Speaker 9: that's one of the things I've asked them to think 992 00:48:52,000 --> 00:48:54,600 Speaker 9: through is you know, how do we get things simpler? 993 00:48:55,239 --> 00:48:57,320 Speaker 9: So that and then we've when you've got things that simple, 994 00:48:57,360 --> 00:48:59,719 Speaker 9: then you can hold people to account for what they're 995 00:48:59,719 --> 00:49:00,640 Speaker 9: there to do and deliver. 996 00:49:00,960 --> 00:49:03,560 Speaker 2: Okay, So now that sort of answers my question to 997 00:49:03,800 --> 00:49:07,040 Speaker 2: the extent that the Kumar case, which is interesting, somebody 998 00:49:07,160 --> 00:49:09,280 Speaker 2: text me and said they can't have been contributing income 999 00:49:09,360 --> 00:49:11,560 Speaker 2: tax for twenty four years if they were overstars. My 1000 00:49:11,760 --> 00:49:13,920 Speaker 2: argument would be, I bet you they could have they 1001 00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:17,120 Speaker 2: ran their own business, because ird wouldn't share enough information 1002 00:49:17,200 --> 00:49:18,920 Speaker 2: with the appropriate people and that's how you stay in 1003 00:49:18,960 --> 00:49:20,520 Speaker 2: the country illegally for twenty four years. 1004 00:49:21,640 --> 00:49:23,720 Speaker 9: Yeah, look, I think there's a whole bunch of questions 1005 00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:25,640 Speaker 9: that that case will never be thrown up on. I've 1006 00:49:25,640 --> 00:49:27,560 Speaker 9: got to be careful because as you know, illegally, I've 1007 00:49:27,600 --> 00:49:29,279 Speaker 9: got you know, Chris Penker's associate me and it's just 1008 00:49:29,400 --> 00:49:31,200 Speaker 9: reviewing it all and it's not. 1009 00:49:31,200 --> 00:49:33,280 Speaker 13: Appropriate I talk about the specifics of that case. 1010 00:49:33,760 --> 00:49:37,040 Speaker 9: My bigger point is that it's really important given we've 1011 00:49:37,080 --> 00:49:38,840 Speaker 9: had so many New New Zealanders come in to New 1012 00:49:38,920 --> 00:49:41,319 Speaker 9: Zealand over the last twenty years who have actually done 1013 00:49:41,360 --> 00:49:44,520 Speaker 9: the right thing and followed legal immigration processes right. And 1014 00:49:44,800 --> 00:49:48,000 Speaker 9: it's unfair when people don't do that. And that's why 1015 00:49:48,400 --> 00:49:50,880 Speaker 9: I do want us to be much more vigilant on 1016 00:49:51,000 --> 00:49:56,080 Speaker 9: making sure we uphold legal immigration. That's really important. It's 1017 00:49:56,120 --> 00:49:58,560 Speaker 9: a fairness point. That's a key principle of being a 1018 00:49:58,600 --> 00:50:00,480 Speaker 9: key we as that if you've worked hard and you've 1019 00:50:00,520 --> 00:50:02,800 Speaker 9: actually done the followed the process and come to this 1020 00:50:02,880 --> 00:50:04,560 Speaker 9: country because you believe in it and you've followed the 1021 00:50:04,640 --> 00:50:07,680 Speaker 9: law and the rules, that's that's fantastic. And actually those 1022 00:50:07,719 --> 00:50:09,920 Speaker 9: people they are often the people that are most vociferous 1023 00:50:09,920 --> 00:50:12,160 Speaker 9: about the folk that have gone around it illegally. So 1024 00:50:12,600 --> 00:50:14,160 Speaker 9: you know, we've got to do a better job obviously 1025 00:50:14,320 --> 00:50:16,600 Speaker 9: making sure that we are on top of it. And 1026 00:50:17,239 --> 00:50:19,239 Speaker 9: you know, I know, Eric Stampa's got resources to look 1027 00:50:19,280 --> 00:50:20,839 Speaker 9: into some of that as well to make sure that's 1028 00:50:20,920 --> 00:50:21,959 Speaker 9: been It might. 1029 00:50:21,880 --> 00:50:23,600 Speaker 2: Well be for Pink the hardest thing you ever does, 1030 00:50:23,680 --> 00:50:25,080 Speaker 2: because how do you boot a country? I mean, they 1031 00:50:25,160 --> 00:50:28,160 Speaker 2: deserve to be booted out because they're legals, but the 1032 00:50:28,239 --> 00:50:29,440 Speaker 2: kids it's not his fault. 1033 00:50:29,640 --> 00:50:30,200 Speaker 17: So what do you do? 1034 00:50:30,440 --> 00:50:33,080 Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, Look, I mean these are classic cases of 1035 00:50:33,280 --> 00:50:35,960 Speaker 9: illegal immigration you see all around the world, and it's 1036 00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:38,239 Speaker 9: a really difficult case. There's massive amounts of emotion in it. 1037 00:50:38,360 --> 00:50:40,920 Speaker 9: There'll be, you know, you know, a whole bunch of 1038 00:50:41,000 --> 00:50:43,319 Speaker 9: considerations that he's got to do. It's a really tough job, 1039 00:50:43,760 --> 00:50:46,120 Speaker 9: really tough job. But you know, the immigration officials have 1040 00:50:46,840 --> 00:50:49,480 Speaker 9: come to their view. Norek finally comes to the Sacian 1041 00:50:49,560 --> 00:50:50,200 Speaker 9: minister to make a. 1042 00:50:50,239 --> 00:50:52,880 Speaker 2: Cause because he's got all the information, hasn't he. I mean, 1043 00:50:52,920 --> 00:50:55,600 Speaker 2: there's nothing stopping and making the decision literally now, is there? 1044 00:50:55,640 --> 00:50:57,600 Speaker 2: Because he can do anything at once? What else does 1045 00:50:57,640 --> 00:50:59,080 Speaker 2: he need to know? Yeah? 1046 00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:01,080 Speaker 9: He's got a chart to go ask some questions of 1047 00:51:01,120 --> 00:51:03,560 Speaker 9: the officials and understand the case well and to make 1048 00:51:03,600 --> 00:51:05,719 Speaker 9: an assessment. But you know, he got handed I think 1049 00:51:05,719 --> 00:51:07,719 Speaker 9: at the end of last week. So you know, he'll 1050 00:51:07,760 --> 00:51:09,120 Speaker 9: move through it as quickly as he can, but he's 1051 00:51:09,120 --> 00:51:10,759 Speaker 9: got to do it fairly. He's got a you know, 1052 00:51:10,800 --> 00:51:12,680 Speaker 9: there's a whole bunch of implications that come from whatever 1053 00:51:12,760 --> 00:51:15,640 Speaker 9: decision he makes, obviously, but you know, I trust him. 1054 00:51:16,880 --> 00:51:19,239 Speaker 9: Know it's a difficult job weighing up these individual cases 1055 00:51:19,239 --> 00:51:21,879 Speaker 9: because everyone's you know, if it was easy, it would 1056 00:51:21,880 --> 00:51:22,400 Speaker 9: have been sorted. 1057 00:51:22,480 --> 00:51:24,160 Speaker 13: And ultimately the buck stops with him. 1058 00:51:24,280 --> 00:51:27,040 Speaker 2: I sort of I understood your defense yesterday post cab 1059 00:51:27,160 --> 00:51:30,759 Speaker 2: on the boot camp thing, and you did spook it 1060 00:51:31,160 --> 00:51:33,840 Speaker 2: and Chure especially spooked it and told us about all 1061 00:51:33,880 --> 00:51:35,560 Speaker 2: the kids that we're going to do well, and then 1062 00:51:35,600 --> 00:51:37,719 Speaker 2: suddenly we clam up shut. So I sided with the 1063 00:51:37,800 --> 00:51:40,160 Speaker 2: media on that. But what they didn't do yesterday is 1064 00:51:40,320 --> 00:51:42,360 Speaker 2: talk about that report and the report having read it 1065 00:51:42,400 --> 00:51:44,880 Speaker 2: by and large as positive good stuff. Yeah it is, 1066 00:51:45,000 --> 00:51:45,720 Speaker 2: it is positive. 1067 00:51:45,760 --> 00:51:46,320 Speaker 13: I mean there was. 1068 00:51:46,800 --> 00:51:48,759 Speaker 9: I mean, you've got kids here, Mike, who are most 1069 00:51:48,840 --> 00:51:51,799 Speaker 9: serious sort of young persistent offenders, and now they are 1070 00:51:51,960 --> 00:51:54,600 Speaker 9: toughest kids and they end up in a facility like that, 1071 00:51:54,800 --> 00:51:57,560 Speaker 9: and that's how they got deemed to put onto this pilot. 1072 00:51:58,239 --> 00:51:59,680 Speaker 9: There was lots that we did really well on the 1073 00:51:59,680 --> 00:52:02,879 Speaker 9: residential facility. You know, there was lots of support around 1074 00:52:02,920 --> 00:52:06,279 Speaker 9: the kids. Yes, you know, it was some really good 1075 00:52:06,320 --> 00:52:08,320 Speaker 9: things that happened. But the bit that we need to 1076 00:52:08,360 --> 00:52:10,799 Speaker 9: work harder on is obviously the transition back into community. Yes, 1077 00:52:10,840 --> 00:52:13,120 Speaker 9: there will be some reoffending, for sure. I'm not going 1078 00:52:13,160 --> 00:52:14,600 Speaker 9: to comment on that, as I said yesterday, because I 1079 00:52:14,600 --> 00:52:16,520 Speaker 9: think you know, there's issues before courts and kids going 1080 00:52:16,560 --> 00:52:18,279 Speaker 9: through processes, and it's a relatively small number of them. 1081 00:52:18,600 --> 00:52:20,520 Speaker 9: But it's not fair that promise to comments on it. 1082 00:52:20,600 --> 00:52:22,759 Speaker 9: But there were positives in that, and I'm sorry, you know, 1083 00:52:22,800 --> 00:52:24,640 Speaker 9: people keep being on saying it's you know, it's not 1084 00:52:24,719 --> 00:52:28,040 Speaker 9: working well. Actually, these kids are getting a breath and 1085 00:52:28,080 --> 00:52:30,080 Speaker 9: an intervention and a choice about how they might want 1086 00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:31,839 Speaker 9: to live the rest of their life. And if they've 1087 00:52:31,840 --> 00:52:33,880 Speaker 9: got people around them for the first time that are 1088 00:52:33,880 --> 00:52:36,160 Speaker 9: actually building them up and getting them focused and actually 1089 00:52:36,160 --> 00:52:36,920 Speaker 9: spending time with them. 1090 00:52:37,360 --> 00:52:39,000 Speaker 13: The new legislation we're putting. 1091 00:52:38,760 --> 00:52:41,400 Speaker 9: Through the House very shortly on the serious Young offender 1092 00:52:41,440 --> 00:52:43,600 Speaker 9: will just mean that we've got the flexibility to extend 1093 00:52:43,680 --> 00:52:46,120 Speaker 9: the time and residential care, and for some of those kids, 1094 00:52:46,440 --> 00:52:49,200 Speaker 9: they probably could have benefited for more time and residential 1095 00:52:49,239 --> 00:52:50,600 Speaker 9: care before they come back in the community. 1096 00:52:50,960 --> 00:52:53,080 Speaker 2: The reports, I said, though that I thought was obvious. 1097 00:52:53,400 --> 00:52:54,760 Speaker 2: It didn't it doesn't have enough stuff? 1098 00:52:55,160 --> 00:52:55,480 Speaker 7: Why not? 1099 00:52:56,920 --> 00:52:57,360 Speaker 3: Well it does. 1100 00:52:57,640 --> 00:53:00,760 Speaker 2: It did have a heap of stuff. I mean, specifically, 1101 00:53:00,840 --> 00:53:02,839 Speaker 2: there's not enough one on one support. And the people 1102 00:53:02,840 --> 00:53:05,200 Speaker 2: who were doing it, I felt under pressure. And who 1103 00:53:05,239 --> 00:53:07,640 Speaker 2: can blame them because old world's watching it felt under 1104 00:53:07,680 --> 00:53:10,319 Speaker 2: pressure to perform. They need more support, So why't Why 1105 00:53:10,320 --> 00:53:12,680 Speaker 2: wouldn't you stack it up at the front. Well we did. 1106 00:53:12,760 --> 00:53:14,279 Speaker 9: I mean we put a lot of people and a 1107 00:53:14,320 --> 00:53:16,640 Speaker 9: lot of resources in there, and I visited that. 1108 00:53:16,760 --> 00:53:17,880 Speaker 13: But I appreciate the staff. 1109 00:53:18,040 --> 00:53:21,120 Speaker 9: You know, we had expectations and intensity about that. There 1110 00:53:21,160 --> 00:53:23,080 Speaker 9: were some really good things that happened. I don't think 1111 00:53:23,120 --> 00:53:25,480 Speaker 9: we had any incidences of kid on kid violence, which 1112 00:53:25,520 --> 00:53:26,879 Speaker 9: is you know what happens in a lot of those. 1113 00:53:26,800 --> 00:53:29,560 Speaker 13: Youth justice facilities. So there's some really good work going on. 1114 00:53:29,640 --> 00:53:31,360 Speaker 9: I'm sure there's more that we can do to support 1115 00:53:31,400 --> 00:53:34,279 Speaker 9: the staff in particular, and I think there's a lot 1116 00:53:34,320 --> 00:53:35,920 Speaker 9: more we could be doing and making the transition back 1117 00:53:35,920 --> 00:53:37,839 Speaker 9: in the community, which is always the hard part, right, 1118 00:53:37,960 --> 00:53:40,440 Speaker 9: But you know, I'm not giving up on these kids, Mike, 1119 00:53:40,520 --> 00:53:43,239 Speaker 9: because actually we want them off community and we want 1120 00:53:43,280 --> 00:53:45,080 Speaker 9: them to take it out with a chance to reset 1121 00:53:45,680 --> 00:53:47,400 Speaker 9: and also make a choice about what they want to 1122 00:53:47,440 --> 00:53:48,239 Speaker 9: do for the next twenty years. 1123 00:53:48,239 --> 00:53:50,000 Speaker 2: It's the things that's worrying me about this. So I 1124 00:53:50,080 --> 00:53:52,120 Speaker 2: know it's all politics and everything, but the amount of 1125 00:53:52,239 --> 00:53:54,640 Speaker 2: energy that's been put in by some people to pile 1126 00:53:54,760 --> 00:53:57,440 Speaker 2: on this thing and to sink it before it starts 1127 00:53:57,520 --> 00:54:00,600 Speaker 2: is upsetting. And now, listen, this is a lot. 1128 00:54:00,480 --> 00:54:02,520 Speaker 9: Of you don't like it, but actually I don't care 1129 00:54:02,560 --> 00:54:04,040 Speaker 9: because you to do the right thing by these kids, 1130 00:54:04,080 --> 00:54:05,600 Speaker 9: and you give them a shot to churn their lives 1131 00:54:05,640 --> 00:54:07,360 Speaker 9: around and then you make the choice. 1132 00:54:07,480 --> 00:54:10,160 Speaker 2: Now speaking which this committee that Goldsmith set up back 1133 00:54:10,200 --> 00:54:13,120 Speaker 2: in September to look at retail crime with old Sunny Koschl, 1134 00:54:13,160 --> 00:54:15,640 Speaker 2: who you hired to shut them up? Where the hell 1135 00:54:15,800 --> 00:54:18,200 Speaker 2: was this? I'm reading this last night six months in 1136 00:54:18,360 --> 00:54:22,440 Speaker 2: they what's been done? Well, just just just rewind a 1137 00:54:22,440 --> 00:54:24,719 Speaker 2: little bit, Like retail crime has gone up one hundred percent. 1138 00:54:24,800 --> 00:54:27,279 Speaker 2: It's cost us over a billion dollars a year. As 1139 00:54:27,320 --> 00:54:31,279 Speaker 2: the reality of it, Goldsmith's formed a ministerial advisory group. 1140 00:54:31,280 --> 00:54:34,040 Speaker 2: He's got people from the front line. I just told 1141 00:54:34,080 --> 00:54:36,440 Speaker 2: you what's happened. Tell me what you're going to do 1142 00:54:36,560 --> 00:54:38,760 Speaker 2: with six months? How was it? They're going to surface 1143 00:54:38,800 --> 00:54:42,560 Speaker 2: with some ideas. I'm going to surface. How have they been? 1144 00:54:43,840 --> 00:54:48,040 Speaker 9: You watch for the rolling thunder, Mike's coming. But in 1145 00:54:48,120 --> 00:54:51,479 Speaker 9: all seriousness, they've actually got some pretty pragmatic common sense 1146 00:54:51,520 --> 00:54:53,359 Speaker 9: sort of ideas and as we get two or three 1147 00:54:53,400 --> 00:54:55,120 Speaker 9: out of that group good and are dealing with a 1148 00:54:55,160 --> 00:54:56,879 Speaker 9: billion dollar problem, that's going to be good. So watch 1149 00:54:56,960 --> 00:55:01,439 Speaker 9: this space rolling Sunday, stortly, very shortly, Michael, there. 1150 00:55:01,560 --> 00:55:05,560 Speaker 2: Days or weeks, because I've got the headline Government of Pleasures. 1151 00:55:06,480 --> 00:55:08,960 Speaker 9: Yep, there's some very provocative things in there, but I 1152 00:55:09,040 --> 00:55:12,760 Speaker 9: think some very pragmatic common sense actually from the front line. 1153 00:55:12,600 --> 00:55:13,200 Speaker 13: That would be useful. 1154 00:55:13,239 --> 00:55:14,960 Speaker 9: And frankly, if we get two or three things out 1155 00:55:15,000 --> 00:55:16,880 Speaker 9: of that group that actually we can put into the 1156 00:55:16,920 --> 00:55:19,160 Speaker 9: system to get the settings tighter and actually cut down 1157 00:55:19,200 --> 00:55:21,359 Speaker 9: on retail crime and the same way we're cutting down 1158 00:55:21,360 --> 00:55:22,520 Speaker 9: on violent crime, that's good. 1159 00:55:22,800 --> 00:55:25,000 Speaker 2: Would you put peacekeepers on the ground in Ukraine? 1160 00:55:26,680 --> 00:55:28,080 Speaker 13: Look, I mean I think we've got a long way 1161 00:55:28,080 --> 00:55:28,239 Speaker 13: to go. 1162 00:55:28,520 --> 00:55:32,040 Speaker 2: I mean we're yeah, no. 1163 00:55:32,080 --> 00:55:33,920 Speaker 13: I get it, But I mean from our point of view, 1164 00:55:33,920 --> 00:55:35,280 Speaker 13: we're very supportive of Ukraine. 1165 00:55:35,360 --> 00:55:37,799 Speaker 9: We are actually in lockstep with the Brits. Actually, were 1166 00:55:37,800 --> 00:55:40,160 Speaker 9: we with them training Ukrainian soldiers in the UK. 1167 00:55:40,400 --> 00:55:43,239 Speaker 2: Why ask the question, because that's what we do. Well, 1168 00:55:44,160 --> 00:55:45,920 Speaker 2: we'd be open to that, would be open to it. 1169 00:55:45,960 --> 00:55:47,960 Speaker 2: We've got a number of peace keeping missions around the world. 1170 00:55:48,040 --> 00:55:50,160 Speaker 2: But for us, we stand with the Ukraine. 1171 00:55:50,200 --> 00:55:53,360 Speaker 9: It's important, you know, we have these values about nation states, sovereignty, 1172 00:55:53,680 --> 00:55:56,239 Speaker 9: you know, rule of law. We've seen a big power 1173 00:55:56,280 --> 00:55:58,000 Speaker 9: I just use its power and coming over the top 1174 00:55:58,040 --> 00:56:01,320 Speaker 9: of a small country. And most importantly we need Ukraine 1175 00:56:02,280 --> 00:56:05,279 Speaker 9: or Russia. Well, we're talking about in general across the 1176 00:56:05,360 --> 00:56:08,120 Speaker 9: geopolitical landscape at the moment. You know, the rules based system, 1177 00:56:08,160 --> 00:56:09,879 Speaker 9: as we say, is breaking down when you've got big 1178 00:56:09,960 --> 00:56:12,239 Speaker 9: countries that are acting out of power, not out on 1179 00:56:12,320 --> 00:56:15,160 Speaker 9: the basis of rules. And for small countries like New Zealand, 1180 00:56:15,239 --> 00:56:17,600 Speaker 9: we care deeply about that stuff because those are you know, 1181 00:56:18,040 --> 00:56:19,319 Speaker 9: from the grace of God, that could be us. 1182 00:56:19,680 --> 00:56:22,000 Speaker 13: So actually that's why we have real affinity with Ukraine. 1183 00:56:22,040 --> 00:56:23,200 Speaker 13: But you know we'd be open to that. 1184 00:56:23,600 --> 00:56:29,239 Speaker 2: Stop eating dinner on your knee, It's not healthy. This 1185 00:56:29,400 --> 00:56:32,880 Speaker 2: is the body hacker. Yeah, that's right.

Too 1191 00:56:47,520 --> 00:56:50,040 Speaker 2: many of our key management role roles start with an 1192 00:56:50,080 --> 00:56:52,480 Speaker 2: important ten years later. Eighty percent of the entire department 1193 00:56:52,520 --> 00:56:54,800 Speaker 2: comes from a suburb of London, made up of schoolmates 1194 00:56:54,840 --> 00:56:56,759 Speaker 2: and next work colleagues. It is not a bad point, Mike. 1195 00:56:56,840 --> 00:56:58,759 Speaker 2: Jury's out on lux with me, but today I found 1196 00:56:58,800 --> 00:57:01,239 Speaker 2: them very impressive. I said nothing I would disagree with 1197 00:57:01,320 --> 00:57:04,080 Speaker 2: his comments. Do show how poorly MSM are treating them. 1198 00:57:04,520 --> 00:57:05,920 Speaker 2: I tend to agree. I watch a lot of it 1199 00:57:06,040 --> 00:57:08,799 Speaker 2: all live these days, and what you see unfold live 1200 00:57:08,840 --> 00:57:10,279 Speaker 2: and what you get later on in the day are 1201 00:57:10,280 --> 00:57:12,440 Speaker 2: two completely different things. We should be more interested, Mike, 1202 00:57:12,480 --> 00:57:15,080 Speaker 2: and what's occurring in our doorstep than in the Ukraine. 1203 00:57:15,320 --> 00:57:17,360 Speaker 2: The Cook Islands have just been taken from under our nose. 1204 00:57:17,400 --> 00:57:19,240 Speaker 2: I only partially agree with you what Brown's got to 1205 00:57:19,240 --> 00:57:21,200 Speaker 2: say over the next twenty four hours. I assuming at 1206 00:57:21,280 --> 00:57:24,120 Speaker 2: some point, having got back to RaRo yesterday, he's going 1207 00:57:24,200 --> 00:57:26,400 Speaker 2: to unveil what he actually signed up to and it 1208 00:57:26,440 --> 00:57:27,960 Speaker 2: will take it to the Parliament. There was a boat 1209 00:57:28,000 --> 00:57:30,720 Speaker 2: of no confidence lined up that's been delayed, and at 1210 00:57:30,760 --> 00:57:32,240 Speaker 2: some point he might want to pick up the phone 1211 00:57:32,240 --> 00:57:34,080 Speaker 2: and ring, oh, I don't know, somebody like Winston and 1212 00:57:34,160 --> 00:57:36,680 Speaker 2: tell us what's going on and whether or not we 1213 00:57:36,840 --> 00:57:38,520 Speaker 2: need to And I'm reading yesterday we're going to have 1214 00:57:38,600 --> 00:57:40,600 Speaker 2: to sort of change the way we write the agreements. 1215 00:57:40,640 --> 00:57:43,800 Speaker 2: Australia did it a while back with places like Tabalu, 1216 00:57:43,880 --> 00:57:45,800 Speaker 2: but whether we're going to have to change and harden 1217 00:57:45,920 --> 00:57:49,080 Speaker 2: up on the agreements with the way you know, it's 1218 00:57:49,080 --> 00:57:51,920 Speaker 2: all very well handing out money to these people, but 1219 00:57:52,080 --> 00:57:53,680 Speaker 2: all of a sudden he's wandering off to China and 1220 00:57:53,760 --> 00:57:55,280 Speaker 2: no one knew what was going on and we didn't 1221 00:57:55,280 --> 00:57:56,560 Speaker 2: need to be in the room. I think we just 1222 00:57:56,680 --> 00:57:58,720 Speaker 2: need to we need to tapen up a little bit there. 1223 00:57:58,760 --> 00:58:00,880 Speaker 2: But we'll need to hear what he has to say 1224 00:58:01,360 --> 00:58:04,120 Speaker 2: and what he signed up to. Eight away from it, the. 1225 00:58:04,280 --> 00:58:07,800 Speaker 1: Mike Hosking breakfast with the range rover Villa news talks 1226 00:58:07,840 --> 00:58:08,120 Speaker 1: Dad b. 1227 00:58:08,280 --> 00:58:10,080 Speaker 2: But generally I'm a hard ass. But in this case, 1228 00:58:10,120 --> 00:58:12,440 Speaker 2: the boy was born here. The sister as well, but 1229 00:58:12,560 --> 00:58:14,919 Speaker 2: she fits the old Laurence stay. Surely, sending a single 1230 00:58:15,040 --> 00:58:17,520 Speaker 2: chart to a foreign country all the loaner is in humane. Well, yes, 1231 00:58:18,160 --> 00:58:19,880 Speaker 2: and that is part of the argument. But then again 1232 00:58:19,920 --> 00:58:22,520 Speaker 2: the parents are illegals, so do you see in them 1233 00:58:22,520 --> 00:58:25,680 Speaker 2: as well? I think I was right about that ird 1234 00:58:25,800 --> 00:58:27,960 Speaker 2: business when people go, well, how do they pay tax? Ird? 1235 00:58:28,160 --> 00:58:30,720 Speaker 2: Don't you know when they get the tax, they don't go. 1236 00:58:30,880 --> 00:58:33,600 Speaker 2: I wonder if it is overstayed. Put the decision on 1237 00:58:33,720 --> 00:58:37,240 Speaker 2: the overstayed, Mike back on them pay a large final leave, James. 1238 00:58:37,320 --> 00:58:39,640 Speaker 2: That can't work. Think about it. What that says is 1239 00:58:39,680 --> 00:58:42,080 Speaker 2: if you're an overstay with money, you get to stay, 1240 00:58:42,480 --> 00:58:44,479 Speaker 2: versus an overstay with no money, you don't get to stay. 1241 00:58:44,880 --> 00:58:46,479 Speaker 2: So that doesn't work for a moment. 1242 00:58:47,080 --> 00:58:47,240 Speaker 5: Is this? 1243 00:58:47,600 --> 00:58:49,080 Speaker 2: Is it just me am I snob and thinking that 1244 00:58:49,200 --> 00:58:51,360 Speaker 2: sitting there with your dinner on your knees a bit weird. 1245 00:58:52,520 --> 00:58:56,440 Speaker 2: It is a bit weird, isn't it.

Do you feel that way? 1312 01:01:51,080 --> 01:01:53,520 Speaker 17: It's my favorite one of them so far. I mean, 1313 01:01:53,520 --> 01:01:56,320 Speaker 17: I suppose you're you're you know, you're young. It's always 1314 01:01:56,360 --> 01:01:59,160 Speaker 17: your favorite, but but I do it kind of it 1315 01:01:59,240 --> 01:02:02,880 Speaker 17: felt different, right, and it has kind of landed differently 1316 01:02:02,960 --> 01:02:05,840 Speaker 17: with readers and stuff. So yeah, I'm really I'm really peopable. 1317 01:02:06,120 --> 01:02:08,040 Speaker 17: Thank your wife. That's very kind of her, not at all. 1318 01:02:08,280 --> 01:02:10,200 Speaker 2: And having said that, I mean I read the books 1319 01:02:10,240 --> 01:02:13,320 Speaker 2: as well, but but she was particularly effusive. She says, 1320 01:02:13,560 --> 01:02:16,320 Speaker 2: and here's I hadn't thought about this, she says, Do 1321 01:02:16,520 --> 01:02:19,880 Speaker 2: you write in your voice? Because she can't read it 1322 01:02:20,040 --> 01:02:21,400 Speaker 2: without hearing you say it. 1323 01:02:23,440 --> 01:02:26,400 Speaker 17: It's a weird thing, isn't it, Because normally when you 1324 01:02:26,480 --> 01:02:28,600 Speaker 17: read a book, you don't know what the writer sounds like. 1325 01:02:29,320 --> 01:02:31,200 Speaker 17: But of course when it says great Norton on the cover, 1326 01:02:31,480 --> 01:02:33,920 Speaker 17: you do. So I don't know, I mean in my 1327 01:02:34,120 --> 01:02:37,360 Speaker 17: I don't. I mean I'm writing it, and I do 1328 01:02:37,520 --> 01:02:39,840 Speaker 17: do the audio book, and I'm able to read it, 1329 01:02:39,920 --> 01:02:41,800 Speaker 17: so I suppose it feels comfortable for. 1330 01:02:41,840 --> 01:02:42,320 Speaker 2: Me to read. 1331 01:02:42,640 --> 01:02:46,440 Speaker 17: But I'm not aware of my voice as I as 1332 01:02:46,480 --> 01:02:48,760 Speaker 17: I write. But yeah, I'm sure it's been there. 1333 01:02:49,440 --> 01:02:52,520 Speaker 2: The next part. And can I congratulate you on these shows. 1334 01:02:52,920 --> 01:02:55,280 Speaker 2: I don't think it started out nine shows you're bringing here, 1335 01:02:55,360 --> 01:02:58,240 Speaker 2: but it has grown to nine shows, and I think 1336 01:02:58,880 --> 01:03:02,400 Speaker 2: I think they're all sell That surely tells you something 1337 01:03:02,440 --> 01:03:04,440 Speaker 2: about the love of New Zealanders towards you. 1338 01:03:06,160 --> 01:03:08,640 Speaker 17: It's listen because you know you put these things on 1339 01:03:08,760 --> 01:03:11,520 Speaker 17: saying you're kind of dear God, let me come and 1340 01:03:11,640 --> 01:03:14,240 Speaker 17: see me. So when they felt that so far for 1341 01:03:14,320 --> 01:03:16,760 Speaker 17: the ask for exidates. That's great, So I think they 1342 01:03:16,840 --> 01:03:18,160 Speaker 17: are all sort of. I think there's a couple of 1343 01:03:18,240 --> 01:03:21,920 Speaker 17: tickets still left for the extra one in christ Structured 1344 01:03:21,960 --> 01:03:25,760 Speaker 17: town Hall on Wednesday twenty sixth and in Wellington at 1345 01:03:25,840 --> 01:03:28,280 Speaker 17: the micro Filer Center of the twenty eighth that be 1346 01:03:28,400 --> 01:03:31,439 Speaker 17: being organized. So I think those are the only ones 1347 01:03:31,480 --> 01:03:33,560 Speaker 17: that's still a ticket left if people would like to 1348 01:03:33,680 --> 01:03:34,480 Speaker 17: come and see me. 1349 01:03:36,240 --> 01:03:36,520 Speaker 18: Do you? 1350 01:03:36,800 --> 01:03:39,280 Speaker 2: I mean, you must have had enough success so far 1351 01:03:40,040 --> 01:03:42,680 Speaker 2: to be comfortable within your own skin, but do you 1352 01:03:42,840 --> 01:03:45,160 Speaker 2: have that nervousness when you talk to an agent or 1353 01:03:45,160 --> 01:03:48,440 Speaker 2: a manager or whoever's organizing the stuff going? How many shows, 1354 01:03:48,520 --> 01:03:50,640 Speaker 2: how big a haul, how many tickets? What's it going 1355 01:03:50,720 --> 01:03:51,760 Speaker 2: to do? Am I popping? 1356 01:03:51,960 --> 01:03:52,080 Speaker 19: You know? 1357 01:03:52,120 --> 01:03:55,600 Speaker 17: All that stuff you do, you do because this is 1358 01:03:55,680 --> 01:03:58,080 Speaker 17: a kind of you know, most of the stuff I do. 1359 01:03:58,640 --> 01:04:01,640 Speaker 17: It's quite a passive thing to consume. You know, you 1360 01:04:01,760 --> 01:04:03,880 Speaker 17: turn on a radio, or you turn on a TV 1361 01:04:04,440 --> 01:04:07,120 Speaker 17: or this, you know, a clip from the show just 1362 01:04:07,240 --> 01:04:11,480 Speaker 17: pops up on your Instagram. This you've got to actively, 1363 01:04:11,880 --> 01:04:14,200 Speaker 17: you know, go online, pick up a phone. You've got 1364 01:04:14,280 --> 01:04:16,880 Speaker 17: to reach into your wallet, you've got to get actual cash, 1365 01:04:17,200 --> 01:04:20,160 Speaker 17: you know. So it's a much bigger commitment. You know, 1366 01:04:20,360 --> 01:04:23,680 Speaker 17: you could quite like me without thinking I need to 1367 01:04:23,800 --> 01:04:27,760 Speaker 17: leave my house and spend two hours with him. So yeah, 1368 01:04:28,000 --> 01:04:30,360 Speaker 17: I I, I. Yeah. You're always nervous when you do 1369 01:04:30,520 --> 01:04:34,720 Speaker 17: something that requires people to take action. So I'm really 1370 01:04:34,840 --> 01:04:38,760 Speaker 17: pleased that people have decided to come out. And you know, 1371 01:04:38,960 --> 01:04:42,560 Speaker 17: I did some shows this show before Christmas in the 1372 01:04:42,680 --> 01:04:44,680 Speaker 17: UK and it is it. I did have a good 1373 01:04:44,720 --> 01:04:46,560 Speaker 17: time doing I'm looking forward to bringing it down there. 1374 01:04:46,720 --> 01:04:50,520 Speaker 2: Good. The business of leaving your television program to do 1375 01:04:50,680 --> 01:04:54,440 Speaker 2: this tour strikes me as a large one, was it? 1376 01:04:56,520 --> 01:04:56,560 Speaker 8: No? 1377 01:04:56,920 --> 01:05:00,120 Speaker 17: No, because in fact I'm only missing one week, is 1378 01:05:00,200 --> 01:05:03,720 Speaker 17: that it? Yeah, the press of the press is slightly 1379 01:05:04,880 --> 01:05:09,080 Speaker 17: restorations my abandonment of the TV show. No, I'm just 1380 01:05:09,160 --> 01:05:11,919 Speaker 17: missing one week and the lovely Claudia Winkleman is sitting 1381 01:05:11,960 --> 01:05:14,960 Speaker 17: in for the for the week I'm missing. But no, 1382 01:05:15,160 --> 01:05:18,560 Speaker 17: then then we were off anyway, So yeah, it's it's 1383 01:05:18,600 --> 01:05:21,200 Speaker 17: not so dramatic. I think the BBC would not be 1384 01:05:21,320 --> 01:05:24,240 Speaker 17: very pleased by just said, Oh, by the way, I'm 1385 01:05:24,320 --> 01:05:27,960 Speaker 17: traveling around Australia at New Zealand while my show's supposed 1386 01:05:27,960 --> 01:05:28,200 Speaker 17: to be on. 1387 01:05:28,440 --> 01:05:31,040 Speaker 2: I'm so glad you explained that because I literally, because 1388 01:05:31,080 --> 01:05:34,200 Speaker 2: I know what I you know, love I put into 1389 01:05:34,240 --> 01:05:36,640 Speaker 2: my show, and I'm assuming it's yours. And your show 1390 01:05:36,760 --> 01:05:38,360 Speaker 2: is not just a show. I mean, you know, it's 1391 01:05:38,440 --> 01:05:40,160 Speaker 2: people on a couch and you talk to people, but 1392 01:05:40,520 --> 01:05:43,920 Speaker 2: it's what you bring. And therefore, if I was employing you, 1393 01:05:44,040 --> 01:05:46,360 Speaker 2: I'd be thinking, well, hold on, mate, the show is 1394 01:05:46,400 --> 01:05:48,640 Speaker 2: not really the same if you're not there, And I thought, 1395 01:05:48,680 --> 01:05:51,080 Speaker 2: what a big call to make. So it is just 1396 01:05:51,240 --> 01:05:53,400 Speaker 2: one and I take it. She's done it because that's 1397 01:05:53,400 --> 01:05:55,720 Speaker 2: been done. Isn't Because I was looking at the list yesterday, 1398 01:05:56,160 --> 01:05:57,680 Speaker 2: there's a couple of shows we haven't seen here in 1399 01:05:57,720 --> 01:06:00,560 Speaker 2: the country yet. But she's done the show that you're missing. 1400 01:06:00,640 --> 01:06:01,120 Speaker 2: Is that correct? 1401 01:06:02,800 --> 01:06:07,600 Speaker 17: No, she's She's been on the show earlier this year, 1402 01:06:08,200 --> 01:06:11,080 Speaker 17: and she'll be recording the show.

Best person ever, isn't it. 1487 01:09:59,760 --> 01:10:02,439 Speaker 2: I'm cited for you. It looks like Mike. The three 1488 01:10:02,520 --> 01:10:04,920 Speaker 2: hundred and eighty seven dollars ticketonian Christ just big bucks 1489 01:10:04,920 --> 01:10:06,559 Speaker 2: and a three hundred and eighty seven. I'd pay three 1490 01:10:06,600 --> 01:10:08,920 Speaker 2: eighty seven if I had at four or Graham, but 1491 01:10:09,080 --> 01:10:13,040 Speaker 2: three eighty seven. There was a time when if he 1492 01:10:13,120 --> 01:10:15,400 Speaker 2: cracked one hundred for a concert, people go, geez, one 1493 01:10:15,479 --> 01:10:19,200 Speaker 2: hundred bucks, Mike. We listened to Frank mind you. I 1494 01:10:19,240 --> 01:10:21,200 Speaker 2: bought some olive oil the other day. We bought our annion. 1495 01:10:21,280 --> 01:10:23,840 Speaker 2: This is not to dismiss our supplies of the olive oil, 1496 01:10:23,880 --> 01:10:25,439 Speaker 2: because we love them. They happen to be our neighbors, 1497 01:10:25,479 --> 01:10:26,920 Speaker 2: and they make the best olive oil. In the country, 1498 01:10:27,600 --> 01:10:30,080 Speaker 2: but we buy in bulk in our fusty. Don't ask 1499 01:10:30,120 --> 01:10:31,040 Speaker 2: what a fusty is, Glenn. 1500 01:10:31,520 --> 01:10:34,000 Speaker 21: I've already didn't that exactly and so explained it and 1501 01:10:34,080 --> 01:10:35,120 Speaker 21: I've forgotten anyway. 1502 01:10:35,160 --> 01:10:38,240 Speaker 2: It's a big metal container that contains a lot of 1503 01:10:38,280 --> 01:10:40,800 Speaker 2: oil once so we buy our annual supply of oil. 1504 01:10:41,040 --> 01:10:43,760 Speaker 2: And last year I paid seventy dollars a liter, which 1505 01:10:43,880 --> 01:10:48,240 Speaker 2: is a lot, but it's exceedingly high end. This year 1506 01:10:48,240 --> 01:10:49,800 Speaker 2: it was one hundred dollars a liter. So that's what's 1507 01:10:49,800 --> 01:10:51,800 Speaker 2: happened to the prize of olive oil all over the world. 1508 01:10:52,320 --> 01:10:54,400 Speaker 2: So three eighty seven for a concert's nothing, Mike. We 1509 01:10:54,439 --> 01:10:57,040 Speaker 2: listened to Frankie on the audio book read by Graham. 1510 01:10:57,080 --> 01:10:59,800 Speaker 2: It was brilliant needs his accent tell Graham read his 1511 01:10:59,800 --> 01:11:04,200 Speaker 2: bok frankly last month's London, So plenty of Graham Norton fans. 1512 01:11:04,840 --> 01:11:08,360 Speaker 2: By the way, as regards a bean bag tray, it 1513 01:11:08,479 --> 01:11:12,439 Speaker 2: turns out I'm quite possibly a snob, which will who 1514 01:11:12,479 --> 01:11:18,640 Speaker 2: saw this coming? So Sam virtually every night because he 1515 01:11:18,720 --> 01:11:21,920 Speaker 2: got a bean bag tray for his thirteenth birthday from 1516 01:11:22,000 --> 01:11:24,160 Speaker 2: his mum, and so he sits in front of the 1517 01:11:24,240 --> 01:11:27,639 Speaker 2: telly every night and with his bean bag tray eating 1518 01:11:27,680 --> 01:11:29,560 Speaker 2: his dinner. So a lot of people do just to 1519 01:11:29,760 --> 01:11:30,080 Speaker 2: be fair. 1520 01:11:30,280 --> 01:11:35,719 Speaker 21: He's not sitting there, you know, ignoring his partner because 1521 01:11:35,760 --> 01:11:37,160 Speaker 21: she's not home from work at that point. 1522 01:11:37,240 --> 01:11:40,200 Speaker 2: So he's just by himself, little SAMs, by himself with 1523 01:11:40,360 --> 01:11:40,840 Speaker 2: little bean ba. 1524 01:11:40,960 --> 01:11:43,639 Speaker 21: And also he doesn't actually have a table to which 1525 01:11:43,720 --> 01:11:45,560 Speaker 21: he doesn't have a table in the city living, you 1526 01:11:45,600 --> 01:11:46,080 Speaker 21: know how it is. 1527 01:11:48,160 --> 01:11:51,280 Speaker 2: Only an outside table sitting outside, so he's got to 1528 01:11:51,320 --> 01:11:55,240 Speaker 2: sit inside in the corner on his lap. There's little 1529 01:11:55,240 --> 01:12:00,680 Speaker 2: bean bag tray. He's a little producer who could And 1530 01:12:00,800 --> 01:12:03,200 Speaker 2: then but then Glenn at that point, Glenn at that 1531 01:12:03,280 --> 01:12:05,680 Speaker 2: point said, we've got bean bag trays. Here we go. 1532 01:12:06,840 --> 01:12:09,360 Speaker 2: So anyway, for all I know, Luxon and Amanda have 1533 01:12:09,439 --> 01:12:11,160 Speaker 2: got bean bag trays, and the whole country's got bean 1534 01:12:11,200 --> 01:12:13,920 Speaker 2: bag trays. Twenty eight bucks for a bean bag tray 1535 01:12:14,040 --> 01:12:16,120 Speaker 2: on Timu, but I wouldn't buy it because it'll have 1536 01:12:16,160 --> 01:12:18,760 Speaker 2: been made by slave labor. So you need to go 1537 01:12:18,840 --> 01:12:21,559 Speaker 2: to Mighty Ape. You have delivery problems with Mighty eight. 1538 01:12:21,880 --> 01:12:24,400 Speaker 2: Here's my last story with Mighty Ape. We went and 1539 01:12:24,520 --> 01:12:29,080 Speaker 2: bought a perfume at Mighty Ape on Mighty Ape and 1540 01:12:29,439 --> 01:12:35,280 Speaker 2: they designate perfume as is it a poison or and 1541 01:12:35,360 --> 01:12:40,200 Speaker 2: it's dangerous dangerous goods. They call it dangerous goods because. 1542 01:12:40,280 --> 01:12:42,240 Speaker 21: We ordered this, isn't it because they know what you're 1543 01:12:42,280 --> 01:12:44,080 Speaker 21: going to do with it when you get it, You're 1544 01:12:44,120 --> 01:12:47,120 Speaker 21: just going to douse yourself in it, thereby becoming a 1545 01:12:47,160 --> 01:12:48,880 Speaker 21: wipin of mess destruction for your colleagues. 1546 01:12:49,000 --> 01:12:52,000 Speaker 2: It took weeks and we thought where the hell's has 1547 01:12:52,080 --> 01:12:54,439 Speaker 2: come from? And it goes, oh, it's because of dangerous goods. 1548 01:12:54,680 --> 01:12:58,880 Speaker 2: Since when did perfume, cologne, after shave, whatever you want 1549 01:12:58,920 --> 01:13:01,040 Speaker 2: to call it become dangerous goods? 1550 01:13:01,280 --> 01:13:03,000 Speaker 6: Well let me know next time. Because I just live 1551 01:13:03,040 --> 01:13:04,280 Speaker 6: around the corner from my hoe. 1552 01:13:04,120 --> 01:13:06,400 Speaker 2: I was going to say, very pleasant, you are I 1553 01:13:06,560 --> 01:13:09,439 Speaker 2: just just pop in and grab some. Anyway, we eventually 1554 01:13:09,479 --> 01:13:11,599 Speaker 2: got it. I thought it was a bit stupid, which 1555 01:13:11,640 --> 01:13:15,880 Speaker 2: brings me to White Lotus and I watched the first 1556 01:13:15,920 --> 01:13:19,000 Speaker 2: episode last night of season three and I'm a massive 1557 01:13:19,080 --> 01:13:22,320 Speaker 2: We are a massive, massive White Lotus watches. Now, we 1558 01:13:23,360 --> 01:13:27,519 Speaker 2: had our meal at the counter and when we're first 1559 01:13:27,840 --> 01:13:31,519 Speaker 2: wait at the counter, at the counter at the counter, 1560 01:13:31,840 --> 01:13:33,759 Speaker 2: so you haven't got a table either, got a table? 1561 01:13:34,080 --> 01:13:35,960 Speaker 2: And we interchange we can go to the table, or 1562 01:13:36,000 --> 01:13:37,840 Speaker 2: we go to the counter. Last night, we're into the counter. 1563 01:13:38,520 --> 01:13:40,120 Speaker 2: So we sat at the counter, sat up at the 1564 01:13:40,160 --> 01:13:42,360 Speaker 2: counter with knives and forks, having it at the counter 1565 01:13:42,439 --> 01:13:47,400 Speaker 2: any bitter than imonstrated as it's at the counter anyway. 1566 01:13:47,560 --> 01:13:50,200 Speaker 2: So we sat at the counter and we finished our meal, 1567 01:13:50,240 --> 01:13:51,639 Speaker 2: and then we sat down we watched White Lotus. 1568 01:13:51,680 --> 01:13:54,040 Speaker 6: If I hadn't said, you're sitting side by, you're still 1569 01:13:54,080 --> 01:13:54,920 Speaker 6: sitting side by. 1570 01:13:54,880 --> 01:13:56,680 Speaker 2: Son, not snow by side. No, I'm at the end 1571 01:13:56,680 --> 01:13:58,599 Speaker 2: of the counter and she's at the left hand side. 1572 01:13:58,760 --> 01:14:01,200 Speaker 6: That is actually I don't like being opposite. 1573 01:14:01,360 --> 01:14:02,599 Speaker 2: Could No, you don't want to be opposite. 1574 01:14:02,640 --> 01:14:04,680 Speaker 6: I feel like i'm judge from couldn't agree more. 1575 01:14:04,720 --> 01:14:07,080 Speaker 2: And so I'm at the head of the counter and 1576 01:14:07,680 --> 01:14:09,880 Speaker 2: she's at the left hand side of the counter. Anyway, 1577 01:14:09,960 --> 01:14:13,439 Speaker 2: works out well. So after she dismiss me to do 1578 01:14:13,520 --> 01:14:16,360 Speaker 2: the dishes, finish off the washing for the day, we 1579 01:14:16,439 --> 01:14:18,080 Speaker 2: sat down to White Lotus. Now, if you hadn't seen 1580 01:14:18,120 --> 01:14:20,599 Speaker 2: White Lotus before, you'd go God, this is slow burn, 1581 01:14:21,080 --> 01:14:23,600 Speaker 2: but it's set the table. No pun intended. Given the 1582 01:14:23,640 --> 01:14:27,360 Speaker 2: discussion of all the characters. This is set in Thailand. 1583 01:14:27,720 --> 01:14:30,000 Speaker 2: They're sort of the same. They're different people every time 1584 01:14:30,360 --> 01:14:33,360 Speaker 2: are one. They're completely different people, but they're the same 1585 01:14:33,479 --> 01:14:35,000 Speaker 2: characters if you know what I mean. You know one 1586 01:14:35,080 --> 01:14:38,120 Speaker 2: so you don't like them. Yeah, and someone's going to 1587 01:14:38,240 --> 01:14:41,680 Speaker 2: end up dead. So anyway, it looks good. I came 1588 01:14:41,720 --> 01:14:44,320 Speaker 2: away thinking, oh yeah, it's lost none of its magic. 1589 01:14:44,400 --> 01:14:46,760 Speaker 2: All the reviews don't speak well of it. But I 1590 01:14:46,920 --> 01:14:48,920 Speaker 2: speak well of it, and I have my dinner at 1591 01:14:48,920 --> 01:14:50,559 Speaker 2: a counter, so that's got to count for something. 1592 01:14:51,600 --> 01:14:57,280 Speaker 3: News is next, news, opinion and everything in between. 1593 01:14:57,640 --> 01:15:01,560 Speaker 1: The Mike costing breakfast with the range Rover Villar designed 1594 01:15:01,840 --> 01:15:03,080 Speaker 1: to intrigue and use. 1595 01:15:03,000 --> 01:15:05,160 Speaker 2: Togs, that'd be Mike. It's rather the couint that you 1596 01:15:05,200 --> 01:15:07,880 Speaker 2: and others still refer to kitchen services as counters. Unless 1597 01:15:07,880 --> 01:15:09,880 Speaker 2: you're running a business from your kitchen. There's not much 1598 01:15:10,040 --> 01:15:11,640 Speaker 2: counting of money going on an you more, but the 1599 01:15:11,720 --> 01:15:14,040 Speaker 2: term remains well, it's a it's a fair point you make. 1600 01:15:14,080 --> 01:15:16,280 Speaker 2: I don't know what else to call it. The kit 1601 01:15:16,439 --> 01:15:20,400 Speaker 2: To my mind, the bench is the bit that you 1602 01:15:20,640 --> 01:15:23,599 Speaker 2: are doing the kitchening in. So in other words, you've 1603 01:15:23,600 --> 01:15:26,400 Speaker 2: got your sink, you've got the area around it, that's 1604 01:15:26,439 --> 01:15:28,960 Speaker 2: your kitchen bench. That's when you're doing, you're cutting, your chopping, 1605 01:15:29,000 --> 01:15:31,320 Speaker 2: you're cooking, your preparation, all that sort of stuff. What 1606 01:15:31,520 --> 01:15:33,600 Speaker 2: you quite often have these days, and what we have 1607 01:15:33,880 --> 01:15:35,880 Speaker 2: is a thing that sticks out the end. 1608 01:15:36,880 --> 01:15:40,640 Speaker 6: Is that a return? Maybe a return to me. 1609 01:15:40,760 --> 01:15:43,639 Speaker 2: Is something that's round at the end. And for some reason, 1610 01:15:43,640 --> 01:15:47,280 Speaker 2: I don't know why, but no, And so what's the 1611 01:15:47,320 --> 01:15:49,200 Speaker 2: bit that sticks out the end? If it's not a counter, 1612 01:15:49,880 --> 01:15:52,600 Speaker 2: you're your bar? Yeah, it could be breakfast bar. Yeah, no, 1613 01:15:52,680 --> 01:15:56,639 Speaker 2: fair cool break but exactly, and so it's not the dinner. 1614 01:15:56,439 --> 01:15:58,320 Speaker 6: Bar, it certainly is it, or the lunch bar, or 1615 01:15:58,360 --> 01:15:59,000 Speaker 6: the brunch. 1616 01:15:58,800 --> 01:16:00,880 Speaker 2: Bar, or the sit down check with your wife bar. 1617 01:16:01,000 --> 01:16:04,559 Speaker 2: It's the kitchen breakfast bar. And so therefore I'm stuck 1618 01:16:04,600 --> 01:16:06,920 Speaker 2: with counter. But I take your point. Twenty two minutes 1619 01:16:06,920 --> 01:16:07,400 Speaker 2: away from. 1620 01:16:07,360 --> 01:16:11,560 Speaker 8: Nine International correspondence with ins and Eye Insurance, Peace of 1621 01:16:11,680 --> 01:16:12,920 Speaker 8: mind for New Zealand. 1622 01:16:12,640 --> 01:16:14,599 Speaker 2: Business, Right, Britt, we go a run a little morning 1623 01:16:14,640 --> 01:16:14,800 Speaker 2: to you. 1624 01:16:16,680 --> 01:16:17,479 Speaker 7: Good morning mate. 1625 01:16:17,600 --> 01:16:20,479 Speaker 2: If you ran a pole on Starmer's idea of putting 1626 01:16:20,520 --> 01:16:22,920 Speaker 2: boots on the ground in Ukraine on the peacekeeping force, 1627 01:16:23,160 --> 01:16:28,600 Speaker 2: would that have much support or not? I don't know. 1628 01:16:28,840 --> 01:16:31,719 Speaker 7: That's a really interesting question and not what i'd considered. 1629 01:16:31,720 --> 01:16:33,479 Speaker 7: I've been looking at it, you know, for the Podsdew 1630 01:16:33,560 --> 01:16:37,639 Speaker 7: of the USA and Britain in poll in terms, people 1631 01:16:37,800 --> 01:16:41,000 Speaker 7: aren't keen on us getting involved in the wars, which 1632 01:16:41,120 --> 01:16:44,080 Speaker 7: we're not directly connected to. So I would have thought 1633 01:16:44,120 --> 01:16:48,479 Speaker 7: it would be fairly unpopular immediately. And don't forget there's 1634 01:16:48,520 --> 01:16:53,320 Speaker 7: a great ground swell of liking for Donald Trump here 1635 01:16:53,400 --> 01:16:57,320 Speaker 7: at the moment of people who hitherto probably didn't like 1636 01:16:57,400 --> 01:16:59,400 Speaker 7: him very much. So I would have thought it would 1637 01:16:59,400 --> 01:17:02,160 Speaker 7: be a negative rather than a positive. But at the 1638 01:17:02,240 --> 01:17:05,400 Speaker 7: same time it does shows Starmer in a kind of 1639 01:17:06,080 --> 01:17:08,640 Speaker 7: the other use of the word positive light, in that 1640 01:17:08,840 --> 01:17:11,800 Speaker 7: you know, he is proactive light. He's doing something and 1641 01:17:14,280 --> 01:17:18,720 Speaker 7: countering the fusilade from America that we've had, particularly the 1642 01:17:18,800 --> 01:17:23,080 Speaker 7: Munich Security Conference, which has really blown open a huge 1643 01:17:23,200 --> 01:17:26,000 Speaker 7: gulf between the USA and Europe. 1644 01:17:26,160 --> 01:17:28,400 Speaker 2: Can you explain this to me, Rod, because I can't. 1645 01:17:28,960 --> 01:17:31,080 Speaker 2: So this is the advance speech. He came in and 1646 01:17:31,120 --> 01:17:34,479 Speaker 2: said what he said. Surely at some point somebody in 1647 01:17:34,640 --> 01:17:37,720 Speaker 2: Europe said, I'll tell you what this Trump guy gets back. 1648 01:17:38,240 --> 01:17:40,560 Speaker 2: It's all on because we saw it all being on 1649 01:17:41,040 --> 01:17:44,599 Speaker 2: in sixteen through twenty. How has it possible Europe's been 1650 01:17:44,680 --> 01:17:48,120 Speaker 2: taken by such surprise at what I would call the obvious. 1651 01:17:50,000 --> 01:17:54,559 Speaker 7: Arrogance AND's stupidity. That's the answer, and it's still going 1652 01:17:54,640 --> 01:17:58,600 Speaker 7: on in America right now, regardless of a lot of 1653 01:17:58,640 --> 01:18:01,439 Speaker 7: what was relevant to the heurity issue, which of course 1654 01:18:01,560 --> 01:18:06,519 Speaker 7: down the line it is the Van was absolutely correct 1655 01:18:06,640 --> 01:18:12,760 Speaker 7: in everything he said you know about Europe, and the 1656 01:18:12,920 --> 01:18:16,360 Speaker 7: polls in Europe would suggest that it was absolutely right. 1657 01:18:17,280 --> 01:18:19,840 Speaker 7: And indeed, the way that Europe has been moving in 1658 01:18:19,880 --> 01:18:22,200 Speaker 7: the last five or six years, there is no question 1659 01:18:23,240 --> 01:18:27,160 Speaker 7: that you know that there is a two tier policy 1660 01:18:27,200 --> 01:18:29,200 Speaker 7: when it comes to dealing with people, and people who 1661 01:18:29,240 --> 01:18:32,880 Speaker 7: are on the right of the political spectrum get banged 1662 01:18:32,960 --> 01:18:36,360 Speaker 7: up and they get in they treatment, and parties on 1663 01:18:36,439 --> 01:18:39,360 Speaker 7: the right excluded from governments and so on and so on. 1664 01:18:39,720 --> 01:18:42,519 Speaker 7: All of that is absolutely true. That may not have 1665 01:18:42,720 --> 01:18:45,200 Speaker 7: much to do with whether we should be supporting Ukraine 1666 01:18:45,280 --> 01:18:49,120 Speaker 7: or not, and I think there are problems with the 1667 01:18:49,200 --> 01:18:51,400 Speaker 7: way which the USA is proposing to go ahead with that, 1668 01:18:52,240 --> 01:18:57,360 Speaker 7: But it should come as no surprise to the EU itself, 1669 01:18:57,840 --> 01:19:01,080 Speaker 7: given that a good three quarter of the countries within 1670 01:19:01,160 --> 01:19:03,920 Speaker 7: the EU at the moment believe the same things themselves. 1671 01:19:04,360 --> 01:19:07,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, I should have mentioned Lord Dennette, who the 1672 01:19:07,960 --> 01:19:10,599 Speaker 2: other day was telling us that, you know, I mean, 1673 01:19:10,640 --> 01:19:13,200 Speaker 2: you haven't got the troops anyway. It's too far rundown. 1674 01:19:13,320 --> 01:19:15,280 Speaker 2: Is that all true? That the military and Britain is 1675 01:19:15,360 --> 01:19:16,920 Speaker 2: so far rundown you can't do a lot even if 1676 01:19:16,960 --> 01:19:17,360 Speaker 2: you wanted to. 1677 01:19:19,160 --> 01:19:22,559 Speaker 7: Yeah, well it's true now. But the one good thing 1678 01:19:22,640 --> 01:19:25,479 Speaker 7: that may have come from from the Trump and Advance 1679 01:19:26,080 --> 01:19:29,360 Speaker 7: and the various other US State Deparliament people who've spoken 1680 01:19:29,360 --> 01:19:32,559 Speaker 7: about this is that it's a wake up call to Europe. 1681 01:19:32,760 --> 01:19:37,960 Speaker 7: You know, for seventy years we have franchised our support, 1682 01:19:38,520 --> 01:19:43,599 Speaker 7: our security to America and paid them next to nothing. 1683 01:19:43,800 --> 01:19:48,040 Speaker 7: You know, thirty percent of that whole bill is paid 1684 01:19:48,080 --> 01:19:51,000 Speaker 7: by America. Why should they do that, especially when they 1685 01:19:51,080 --> 01:19:54,600 Speaker 7: have nothing any more ideologically in common with us? What 1686 01:19:54,840 --> 01:19:57,720 Speaker 7: is a link to that? So it has become a 1687 01:19:57,760 --> 01:20:00,479 Speaker 7: wake up call. I was talking to a liberal Democrat 1688 01:20:00,600 --> 01:20:04,559 Speaker 7: Mpeer at the weekend, and the lib Dens have been, 1689 01:20:04,840 --> 01:20:08,640 Speaker 7: you know, pretty much anti military expenditurisy, but actually a 1690 01:20:08,680 --> 01:20:10,760 Speaker 7: liberal Democrat to be on the left and so on, 1691 01:20:11,720 --> 01:20:15,599 Speaker 7: and this was Mike Martin, and he said, we've got 1692 01:20:15,600 --> 01:20:17,960 Speaker 7: to move to three point five percent of GDP and 1693 01:20:18,080 --> 01:20:21,960 Speaker 7: perhaps up to five, you know, so it is suddenly 1694 01:20:22,080 --> 01:20:25,320 Speaker 7: concentrated the minds of these people who for years have 1695 01:20:25,439 --> 01:20:30,160 Speaker 7: been underpaying their fair share in NATO, and suddenly to 1696 01:20:30,640 --> 01:20:32,720 Speaker 7: we better do this ourselves because he's not going to 1697 01:20:32,800 --> 01:20:33,439 Speaker 7: do it anymore. 1698 01:20:33,560 --> 01:20:35,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. Hey, listen, can I ask you a couple 1699 01:20:35,960 --> 01:20:38,479 Speaker 2: of things while I've got you that are unrelated to them? 1700 01:20:38,479 --> 01:20:40,800 Speaker 2: By the way, has anything tangible come out of this? 1701 01:20:40,920 --> 01:20:42,920 Speaker 2: I know we've been banging on about the so called 1702 01:20:43,120 --> 01:20:46,320 Speaker 2: you know, urgency and all that. Have they seen anything tonight? 1703 01:20:46,400 --> 01:20:48,120 Speaker 2: I mean, has anything literally come out of this? 1704 01:20:48,280 --> 01:20:48,439 Speaker 17: Or not? 1705 01:20:50,439 --> 01:20:50,800 Speaker 13: Not yet? 1706 01:20:51,320 --> 01:20:54,000 Speaker 7: Though I'm still waited much as you are. I mean, 1707 01:20:56,479 --> 01:21:00,439 Speaker 7: I disagree with him, but that's not point he has that. 1708 01:21:00,920 --> 01:21:04,120 Speaker 7: You know, Ukraine, we stand behind Ukraine, we will put 1709 01:21:04,160 --> 01:21:05,880 Speaker 7: boot to the grad, all that kind of stuff. And 1710 01:21:06,080 --> 01:21:09,800 Speaker 7: David Lady has said that Ukraine is on an irreversible 1711 01:21:09,920 --> 01:21:13,960 Speaker 7: path to native membership. Well, David, it doesn't look very 1712 01:21:13,960 --> 01:21:17,360 Speaker 7: irreversible from where I'm spending. But there we are. At 1713 01:21:17,479 --> 01:21:21,840 Speaker 7: least they are remaining true to to to what they've 1714 01:21:21,880 --> 01:21:25,920 Speaker 7: said in the past. All that Europe is doing is 1715 01:21:26,040 --> 01:21:29,479 Speaker 7: just it's just putting its head in the sand and screaming, 1716 01:21:29,680 --> 01:21:31,559 Speaker 7: which means no one can hear it because their heads 1717 01:21:31,560 --> 01:21:35,440 Speaker 7: are in the sand. It's it's it's a unique occasion. 1718 01:21:35,880 --> 01:21:40,400 Speaker 7: And I think we looked back upon quite historically, you know. 1719 01:21:40,680 --> 01:21:43,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think this is a moment in time. I 1720 01:21:43,479 --> 01:21:46,479 Speaker 2: couldn't agree with you more. Just quickly on Rachel Reeves 1721 01:21:46,520 --> 01:21:50,400 Speaker 2: domestic matters. One was the expenses thing, but more importantly 1722 01:21:50,840 --> 01:21:54,000 Speaker 2: when she was at the Halifax Bank of Scotland, this 1723 01:21:54,240 --> 01:21:56,320 Speaker 2: CV thing where she claims to have been at the 1724 01:21:56,320 --> 01:21:58,880 Speaker 2: Bank of England a lot longer than she actually was. 1725 01:21:59,080 --> 01:22:01,439 Speaker 2: Is this a thing or can you just go around 1726 01:22:01,520 --> 01:22:02,840 Speaker 2: saying you were at places you weren't. 1727 01:22:05,080 --> 01:22:09,360 Speaker 7: It's had a lot more traction than firstly I initially 1728 01:22:09,479 --> 01:22:13,040 Speaker 7: thought it would, because more revelations have come out, such 1729 01:22:13,080 --> 01:22:17,960 Speaker 7: as the expenses stuff. And I do wonder that we've 1730 01:22:18,160 --> 01:22:20,880 Speaker 7: kind of got ourselves a custom to the CB business. 1731 01:22:21,439 --> 01:22:23,920 Speaker 7: And we now know she lies. She has a problem 1732 01:22:23,960 --> 01:22:29,639 Speaker 7: with the truth. Okay, that's one thing. But the more 1733 01:22:29,800 --> 01:22:33,120 Speaker 7: detail that comes out about the expenses scandal, the more 1734 01:22:33,320 --> 01:22:38,200 Speaker 7: precarious her position is. Because without costumes, she played fast 1735 01:22:38,240 --> 01:22:41,120 Speaker 7: and loose with rules and with someone else's money. 1736 01:22:42,880 --> 01:22:45,439 Speaker 2: Super uncle, all right, might go, well, catch up Thursday, 1737 01:22:45,960 --> 01:22:47,880 Speaker 2: Rodin Little in Britain. By the way, there was a 1738 01:22:47,960 --> 01:22:50,920 Speaker 2: poll out this morning for Sky done by YouGov Sky TV. 1739 01:22:51,560 --> 01:22:54,880 Speaker 2: Torris Trial reform a whole bunch of indicators only temper 1740 01:22:54,880 --> 01:22:56,679 Speaker 2: seed of voters currently see the toy is as strong. 1741 01:22:56,760 --> 01:22:59,880 Speaker 2: Sixty one see them as week more than twice as likely. 1742 01:23:00,080 --> 01:23:02,599 Speaker 2: See reform as having a clear direction only eleven percent. 1743 01:23:02,680 --> 01:23:04,720 Speaker 2: So the toy is a trustworthy sixty five percent say 1744 01:23:04,720 --> 01:23:07,320 Speaker 2: they're untrustworthy, so that's interesting as well. 1745 01:23:07,400 --> 01:23:11,840 Speaker 1: Eight forty five The Mike Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast 1746 01:23:12,080 --> 01:23:14,720 Speaker 1: on iHeartRadio powered by News Talks at b. 1747 01:23:15,600 --> 01:23:18,800 Speaker 2: And Justin from Fontierra. New incentives for farmers to reduce 1748 01:23:18,880 --> 01:23:21,599 Speaker 2: some missions. So from the new season which is June one, 1749 01:23:22,600 --> 01:23:24,839 Speaker 2: you got some payment for farms that achieved certain mimissions 1750 01:23:24,880 --> 01:23:28,439 Speaker 2: related criteria. New cooperative difference payment one to five cents 1751 01:23:28,479 --> 01:23:32,439 Speaker 2: per kilo of milk solids, New customer incentives. There's funding 1752 01:23:32,479 --> 01:23:34,800 Speaker 2: from a separate agreement with Mars and Nesle, who they've 1753 01:23:34,840 --> 01:23:37,080 Speaker 2: been working with for a while, so farmers will be 1754 01:23:37,120 --> 01:23:39,439 Speaker 2: interested in that. Very good time to be a dairy 1755 01:23:39,479 --> 01:23:41,000 Speaker 2: farmer in this country, not a good time to be 1756 01:23:41,080 --> 01:23:43,240 Speaker 2: in the media. As I'm sure, you're well aware. And 1757 01:23:43,400 --> 01:23:44,840 Speaker 2: one of the things that we're looking to do in 1758 01:23:44,920 --> 01:23:47,479 Speaker 2: this country that's going nowhere. And I've been telling everybody 1759 01:23:47,520 --> 01:23:49,360 Speaker 2: who asked me, is this going anywhere? I've said no, 1760 01:23:49,439 --> 01:23:52,760 Speaker 2: it's not the idea that we somehow cut a deal 1761 01:23:53,240 --> 01:23:57,400 Speaker 2: on behalf of the government too with Google, Facebook, any 1762 01:23:57,560 --> 01:24:00,639 Speaker 2: pecketed big tech grant that they pay us some money 1763 01:24:01,400 --> 01:24:06,080 Speaker 2: for the material they steal and put on their platforms, 1764 01:24:07,160 --> 01:24:10,040 Speaker 2: news stuff like that. Now we were looking to Australia. 1765 01:24:10,520 --> 01:24:13,200 Speaker 2: They had the deal that was going to work allegedly, 1766 01:24:13,800 --> 01:24:16,640 Speaker 2: and now they don't because what happened yesterday is that 1767 01:24:17,160 --> 01:24:19,680 Speaker 2: that's off because that would come under the broadheadline of 1768 01:24:19,720 --> 01:24:23,240 Speaker 2: reciprocal tariffs. So the government has reportedly the Australian government 1769 01:24:23,280 --> 01:24:27,519 Speaker 2: reportedly stalled plans to begin publicly designing its news bargaining incentive. 1770 01:24:27,560 --> 01:24:31,040 Speaker 2: There will be no incentive. There is no bargaining confirm. 1771 01:24:31,120 --> 01:24:32,680 Speaker 2: The delay is due to fear as the policy will 1772 01:24:32,720 --> 01:24:35,320 Speaker 2: be seen as being unfairly targeting towards US companies because 1773 01:24:35,320 --> 01:24:38,120 Speaker 2: of course Google, Facebook, et cetera, they're all American, result 1774 01:24:38,200 --> 01:24:40,439 Speaker 2: in reciprocal tariffs on Australian experts set seeing into that 1775 01:24:41,880 --> 01:24:44,519 Speaker 2: so this idea that somehow we were going to bring 1776 01:24:44,640 --> 01:24:46,160 Speaker 2: big tech to the table and they were going to 1777 01:24:46,200 --> 01:24:48,519 Speaker 2: be super excited about paying us some money. It was 1778 01:24:48,560 --> 01:24:51,880 Speaker 2: always fancible in my humble opinion, and it's proved to 1779 01:24:51,960 --> 01:24:54,280 Speaker 2: be so. Breakfast bar is a raised counter in a 1780 01:24:54,360 --> 01:24:57,000 Speaker 2: kitchen that has room alongside for seating. Is used for 1781 01:24:57,080 --> 01:25:01,720 Speaker 2: eating light meals. To find a like meat love the 1782 01:25:01,760 --> 01:25:05,400 Speaker 2: show Mike counter Chat.
