Job Seeker benefit numbers 10 00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:38,120 Speaker 3: a pretty high at the moment, no great surprise in 11 00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:42,440 Speaker 3: this economy. But the government's pleaging to get ten thousand 12 00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:45,519 Speaker 3: job seekers one on one support. How are they going 13 00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:48,240 Speaker 3: to do that? The Minister will be with us very shortly. Plus, 14 00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:50,559 Speaker 3: of course we are approaching a week on from that 15 00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:54,000 Speaker 3: fifty basis point cut to the ocr So why are 16 00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:56,920 Speaker 3: banks not cutting their fixed term rates? Will get an 17 00:00:56,960 --> 00:00:59,160 Speaker 3: answer for you very shortly. Right now it is seven 18 00:00:59,200 --> 00:00:59,720 Speaker 3: past four. 19 00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:00,960 Speaker 1: Good team. 20 00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:05,840 Speaker 3: Well, the Labor Party is edging ever closer slow as 21 00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:08,960 Speaker 3: it may be, towards supporting a capital gains tax at 22 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:13,199 Speaker 3: the next election. Reporting by Politics says both a CGT 23 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:16,720 Speaker 3: and a wealth tax. A wealth tax have been pushed 24 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:20,960 Speaker 3: to the party's Policy Council for further development, although a 25 00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:23,840 Speaker 3: remit that was calling for a wealth tax policy to 26 00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:27,000 Speaker 3: proceed has been pushed back. That came up before members 27 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,399 Speaker 3: at the Labour Party conference over the weekend. Now you 28 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,800 Speaker 3: got to say, pushing back an immediate call to support 29 00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:35,399 Speaker 3: a wealth tax is definitely a good call in my 30 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:38,440 Speaker 3: view of the two the two taxes, a CGT and 31 00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:42,280 Speaker 3: a wealth tax, a capital gains tax is probably easier 32 00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 3: to sell politically. A wealth tax would immediately be lambastadors 33 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:51,920 Speaker 3: an envy tax, whereas a broader CGT merely brings us 34 00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:55,800 Speaker 3: in line with comparable countries. I also think that capital 35 00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:58,560 Speaker 3: flight would be a much greater issue with a wealth 36 00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 3: tax than it would be with a CG and given 37 00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:03,200 Speaker 3: it would be such a novel adjustment to our tax system, 38 00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:07,080 Speaker 3: a CGT is probably easier to administer as well. Now 39 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 3: you know my views when it comes to a broader CGT. 40 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 3: I've said it before, I'll say it again. I just 41 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:14,640 Speaker 3: don't understand why someone's slogging their guts out in a 42 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:18,760 Speaker 3: really tough job or jobs should have their wages pinged 43 00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:21,799 Speaker 3: when someone else making hundreds of thousands of dollars in 44 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,840 Speaker 3: capital gains shouldn't be taxed ascent. I just think it's 45 00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 3: not fair. That doesn't mean that a CGT would have 46 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 3: to be taxed at the marginal rate. You could put 47 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:32,959 Speaker 3: it at a much lower rate than we have for wages. 48 00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:35,359 Speaker 3: But I just don't think that we tax well. I 49 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 3: don't think it's fair that we tax one thing and 50 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 3: we don't tax another. The problem with the CGT, though, 51 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 3: presuming you don't make it retrospective, which would be political suicide, 52 00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 3: is that it doesn't really start to bring in significant 53 00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:51,640 Speaker 3: revenue for years. And the challenge Labor has is nailing 54 00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:54,360 Speaker 3: a tax policy that can get them both elected in 55 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:58,160 Speaker 3: the first place, and then prove its worth before they 56 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:01,840 Speaker 3: get voted out again at the party conference at the weekend. 57 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:05,640 Speaker 3: I reckon we could just start to see the bones 58 00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:09,280 Speaker 3: of the cell coming together. I reckon Labour's going to 59 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 3: enter the election campaign making big promises, but really big 60 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:17,960 Speaker 3: promises around infrastructure investment and capital projects, stuff like the 61 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:21,919 Speaker 3: Denedan Hospital. Right. They are going to embrace deficits. They're 62 00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 3: going to embrace billions of dollars in debt on the 63 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:29,240 Speaker 3: promise that revenue from a CGT will offset that debt 64 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:32,960 Speaker 3: in ten or fifteen years time. There is one big 65 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:36,559 Speaker 3: problem with that strategy though. Remind me how many kilometers 66 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 3: of light rail were completed with the six years that 67 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 3: Labor had in office. Just remind me. To sell a CGT, 68 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 3: they're going to have to pin that tax to big 69 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 3: capital projects and to do that, Labour needs to convince 70 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 3: the public it actually has the capacity to deliver on 71 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 3: those projects. And if their last two terms in government 72 00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 3: are anything to go by, that is going to be 73 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 3: an even harder sell than the tax team. Ninety two 74 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 3: ninety two is the text number. Don't forget standard text 75 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 3: costs a player. You can email me as well. Jack 76 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 3: at Newstalk that news Talk saidb dot co dot NZ. 77 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 3: Let me know your thoughts on that. Right now, It's 78 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 3: eleven past four and US President Joe Biden has pardoned 79 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 3: his son Hunter, who was set to be sentenced for 80 00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 3: gun and tax convictions. In a statement, the President said 81 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 3: that Hunter had been unfairly singled out and prosecuted because 82 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:28,039 Speaker 3: of his family name. But it is a bit of 83 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,480 Speaker 3: a u turn to say the least. Here's what Joe 84 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:32,760 Speaker 3: Biden said back in June. 85 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:36,080 Speaker 4: I am satisfied that I'm not going to do anything 86 00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:38,520 Speaker 4: shadowed by the jury decision. 87 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:41,480 Speaker 5: I will do that and I will not partner him. 88 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 3: Logan Church is TVNZ's US correspondent, and he joins us 89 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 3: now I will not pardon him. Those were the words 90 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:50,400 Speaker 3: of Joe Biden. Why has he changed his mind? 91 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:54,359 Speaker 6: Oh jacket, certainly a recap, Certainly a U turn, isn't this? 92 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 6: I mean, just for a very quick recap for those 93 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,120 Speaker 6: who haven't been following this case Hunter Biden. Of course, 94 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,679 Speaker 6: Joe Biden had been charged and convicted for crimes releasing 95 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:06,120 Speaker 6: to illegally buying a gun, and tax avoidance. This all 96 00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:08,159 Speaker 6: came to a headering a trial earlier this year in 97 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 6: Delaware that exposed a loss of Hunter Biden's past in 98 00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 6: regards to drug abuse and family dysfunction, a lot of 99 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:16,440 Speaker 6: what he's talked about in his memoir, and he was 100 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 6: due to be sentenced actually this month now. In America, 101 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 6: of course, the president has the power to parson people 102 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 6: for crimes and for all of Joe Biden's re election campaign, 103 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 6: and after he stepped aside and supported Kamala Harris, he 104 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:34,040 Speaker 6: vowed that he would not use that to pardon his 105 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:37,360 Speaker 6: son as all, and it appeared like a political strategy 106 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:40,080 Speaker 6: more than anything else. Now for context, at the same time, 107 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 6: Donald Trump was accusing Biden of weaponizing the justice system 108 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 6: against him. So no pardon four Hunter until today. Now, 109 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 6: this pardon covers any potential federal crimes that Hunter Biden 110 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:55,919 Speaker 6: committed from January first, twenty fourteen, through to December first, 111 00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 6: twenty twenty four And this news kind of coming, as 112 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 6: you say, is a shock to everyone. 113 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's interesting, isn't it. It says to me that 114 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 3: Joe Biden just doesn't care anymore. He doesn't have another 115 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:08,360 Speaker 3: election campaign to fight. Logan, he doesn't give a tass. 116 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 3: He feels like he's been let down by his Democrat colleagues. 117 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,480 Speaker 3: He knows that his legacy has already been tainted by 118 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 3: Trump's re election. But is there any real meat on 119 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,000 Speaker 3: the bone when it comes to his argument around this 120 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:20,640 Speaker 3: being a travesty of justice? 121 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:24,040 Speaker 6: Well, this is a Sunday night here, and Joe Biden 122 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:26,279 Speaker 6: did put out a statement to try and explain that 123 00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 6: of his thinking behind this. So he said in that 124 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:31,240 Speaker 6: as you say, that he issued the bardin because his 125 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 6: son was, in quoting here, selectively and unfairly prosecuted, and 126 00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:38,720 Speaker 6: that he believed Huns was treated differently from people who 127 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:40,160 Speaker 6: commissed similar crimes. 128 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 7: Now. 129 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 6: President Biden also said that his political opponents in Congress 130 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:47,800 Speaker 6: instigates of the charges to attack him and oppose his 131 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:50,279 Speaker 6: re election. I'm going to quote him again here. I 132 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 6: believe in the justice system, he says that I have 133 00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 6: wrestled with this. I also believe raw politics has infected 134 00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 6: this process and it has led to a miscarriage of justice. 135 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:01,919 Speaker 6: I hope that Americans will understand why a father and 136 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:05,520 Speaker 6: the president would come to this decision. But we really 137 00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:07,480 Speaker 6: need to take a giant step back here and surveyed 138 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 6: a tumultuous terrain that has been the Joe Biden presidency. 139 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 6: Because it's worth noticing that this is not the first 140 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 6: time that Joe Biden has I would generally use this 141 00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 6: description changed his mind on big issues. So remember when 142 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 6: he said that he would be a transitional president to 143 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:25,679 Speaker 6: hand the torch to the next generation and then totally 144 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 6: backtracked on bass and ran anyway. Well, today Joe Biden 145 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:32,800 Speaker 6: has once again backtracked on months of very clear and 146 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:36,000 Speaker 6: strong messaging that he wouldn't pardon his son. He lay 147 00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:39,120 Speaker 6: down all of those arguments, and the statesman's will it 148 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 6: convince the American people? Well, you can imagine how the 149 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 6: Trump camp has reacted this evening, many of them coming 150 00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 6: out strongly accusing the current president of lying. But it's 151 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 6: certainly the end of another unprecedented chapter in this quite 152 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:54,679 Speaker 6: bizarre time in American politans. 153 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:57,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, crazy times. Thanks Logan, appreciate it. That's TV and 154 00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 3: z's UIs correspondent Logan Church. Thanks feedback. Jack. If there's 155 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 3: one thing that Labor's good at, that's implementing new taxes infrastructure, 156 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 3: not so much taxes. Yes, they're the masters, says Glenn Jack. 157 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 3: Labor just blue. However, many billion dollars over the last 158 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:14,679 Speaker 3: six years. How much more money can they waste? Says 159 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:16,240 Speaker 3: Paul and Jack have figure. If they're not going to 160 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 3: be able to sell Jack, they're not going to be 161 00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 3: able to sell the CGT to this country. As we 162 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 3: already owe so much money for COVID, we haven't got 163 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 3: a plan going forward. Already, it looks like the deficit 164 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 3: is going to be pushed back another year. If you 165 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 3: want to send me a text, ninety two to ninety 166 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:31,720 Speaker 3: two is the text number. We'll talk about the black 167 00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:34,319 Speaker 3: Caps chances in the second Test against England in a 168 00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:36,200 Speaker 3: couple of minutes. Right now, it's quarter past four. You 169 00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 3: with the news talk z EDB. 170 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:41,520 Speaker 2: Who will take the White House results and analysis of 171 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:44,560 Speaker 2: the US election on Heather due to see Alan Drive 172 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 2: with one New Zealand. 173 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,000 Speaker 1: Let's get connected news talk, said B. 174 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 2: Sport with tab get your bed on ri eteam bet responsibly. 175 00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:58,640 Speaker 3: Jason Pyne is the host of Sports Talk this evening. 176 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 3: He's with us now killed apart Keller Jack. So the 177 00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:04,200 Speaker 3: black Caps versus England, they should have still been playing, 178 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 3: of course, well I suppose they shouldn't necessarily have still 179 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 3: been playing. But the five day Test was four days 180 00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:12,360 Speaker 3: in the end. What needs to change for Test number two? 181 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:14,960 Speaker 8: Well, I think one thing that does is our catching. 182 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:17,520 Speaker 8: I think we can all agree on that, Jack, that 183 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 8: that holding catchers would certainly be a very good place 184 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 8: to start. 185 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:22,560 Speaker 9: Look at was inexplicable, wasn't it? How many did we 186 00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:24,200 Speaker 9: put down across the Test? It must have been up 187 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:25,320 Speaker 9: to double figures. 188 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:27,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's seven or eight at least. 189 00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 9: Yeah, and that too many? Yeah, too many? 190 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 3: And just control the controllables. 191 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:32,640 Speaker 1: Eight. 192 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:36,320 Speaker 8: Yes, not not to fall back on cliches, but catches, 193 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 8: you know, they don't win matches. They certainly help your 194 00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 8: win matches. And we shouldn't have got ourselves into the 195 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:44,000 Speaker 8: position that we did because we should have held our 196 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:46,000 Speaker 8: catches and England shouldn't have got as many runs as 197 00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:49,080 Speaker 8: they did. Having said that, you can only do you 198 00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:50,960 Speaker 8: know now what's in front of you. So as we 199 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 8: look ahead to the second Test, if we're forward looking 200 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 8: about this and to what can change, I don't think 201 00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 8: they'll have as bad a Test in the field as 202 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:01,560 Speaker 8: they just did. You know, it doesn't seem to me 203 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:04,680 Speaker 8: as though, Well I could be wrong here and people 204 00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 8: might have a different view, but I don't think you 205 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:08,560 Speaker 8: can get to a bad run of form in the field. 206 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 8: You can with the bat, but they can as a 207 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 8: bowl up, but can you as a fielder. 208 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:16,640 Speaker 3: Well, you know what, I turn my mind back to 209 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:19,320 Speaker 3: that Sri Lanka Test series and they did the same 210 00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 3: thing on a couple of days. They're not it wasn't 211 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:23,280 Speaker 3: quite as bad as with England, but they dropped that 212 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:25,920 Speaker 3: they were uncharacteristically bad in the field, and that was 213 00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 3: always the thing that we had right. India can choose 214 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:30,160 Speaker 3: from a billion players. New Zealand could only choose from 215 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:32,559 Speaker 3: five million. But you knew that we were going to 216 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:35,280 Speaker 3: be really good, keen, well practiced fielders. Yep. 217 00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:36,920 Speaker 8: So let's hope we see that again at the basin 218 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:41,160 Speaker 8: starting from Friday, and that it goes through the fourth 219 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:43,240 Speaker 8: or fifth day. Are the changes? Look, I think they'll 220 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:46,080 Speaker 8: probably play Mitchell Santner at the basin. He's been brought 221 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 8: into the squad. I'm not sure you have them there. 222 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 8: Everyone't play them, So that means that one of Nathan Smith, 223 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:54,559 Speaker 8: Matt Henry, Tim Southy All willow' rourke drops out. Look, 224 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:56,720 Speaker 8: it's not gonna be Henry. He's our best bowler. O'rourck's 225 00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:58,840 Speaker 8: have fastest. I'd keep him. So I reckon it comes 226 00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:01,960 Speaker 8: down to a choice between your most experienced seema and 227 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 8: your least experienced seema. And I wonder whether they might 228 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:06,800 Speaker 8: go Nathan Smith. You know, I reckon they might pick 229 00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 8: me if they did. 230 00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:10,679 Speaker 3: Though, they're bringing back for Hamilton the correctest. 231 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 9: Which one song and all that, and that's the right 232 00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:12,400 Speaker 9: thing to do. 233 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 3: I think so too. So I was there, of course 234 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:17,320 Speaker 3: see Awkland the FC. I was there in the Rain 235 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 3: sways Rain from the FC pick up win five from five. 236 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:25,640 Speaker 3: I mean, is it is remarkable. I mean that I 237 00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 3: know there's a long way to come in the A 238 00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 3: League season, but we are top of the league. We 239 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:30,319 Speaker 3: are top of the league. 240 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 9: I can't wait to see you there on Saturday for 241 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:33,839 Speaker 9: the Darby. 242 00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:34,240 Speaker 3: Yeah. 243 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 8: Absolutely monumental. Look you can't the table doesn't lie. Jack 244 00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:40,960 Speaker 8: played five one five, haven't let a gol on? Yes, 245 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 8: no one expected this. But the crowds, yeah there have been. 246 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:47,320 Speaker 8: But the crowds, I mean thirteen thousand and the Rain. 247 00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 8: A lot of the other teams over in Australia don't 248 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:52,520 Speaker 8: get out on a good day. So the crowd support. 249 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:55,000 Speaker 8: You have to hand it to to Walkland, the FC, 250 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:58,080 Speaker 8: the football club and you and it's many thousands of 251 00:11:58,080 --> 00:11:59,720 Speaker 8: supporters who have turned up to watch them. 252 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:02,120 Speaker 9: You know they're doing brilliantly. 253 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 3: I got to say, you know, I'm not doing it 254 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 3: out of charity, like it is just such a great 255 00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:08,760 Speaker 3: experience and a great family experience being there, like to 256 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:11,600 Speaker 3: go Media Stadium. You know they have all the stuff 257 00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:13,040 Speaker 3: turned on for the kids. You know they've got the 258 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:17,120 Speaker 3: big giant blow up bouncy castle, slide thing going down 259 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:19,720 Speaker 3: the bank. I think it was for a little mini 260 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:23,560 Speaker 3: chocolate chip cookie and a cart and of milk for 261 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 3: the kids. It was a dollar, which is fantastic. Can't 262 00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:28,599 Speaker 3: argue with that value. So I mean it's such a 263 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:31,400 Speaker 3: good experience. The atmosphere is fantastic. And after five this evening, 264 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:34,160 Speaker 3: we're going to be catching up with Nick Becker, the 265 00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 3: CEO of Auckland def C, because it turns out that 266 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 3: when you are five from five and your debut season 267 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:41,880 Speaker 3: in the A League, you sell a whole lot of 268 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:43,440 Speaker 3: jumpers that we're going to talk to them about the 269 00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 3: flowing effects with that and catch you again this evening. 270 00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 3: Thank you, pinting Jason Pine with us from seven o'clock 271 00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:51,559 Speaker 3: tonight on news Talks.

Well, look, I'm no tax expert, 275 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,440 Speaker 3: but I would have thought that the answer to that 276 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:00,079 Speaker 3: is in the name. It's a capital gains tax. And 277 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:02,679 Speaker 3: don't think you pay you don't pay tax on losses, 278 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:04,319 Speaker 3: whether or not you get a refund on losses. I 279 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:07,079 Speaker 3: suppose there's another point of contention, Jack, I'm not opposed 280 00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:10,400 Speaker 3: to a well constructed CGT, says Joe Anne. I'm vehemently 281 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 3: opposed to giving the current Labour MP's another cent of 282 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:15,360 Speaker 3: our money to spend though they wasted billions with nothing 283 00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:17,800 Speaker 3: to show for it. We can't afford anymore. See this is, 284 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:20,320 Speaker 3: I think, Joanne, going to be the interesting point. I 285 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 3: think in order to sell the CGT and to have 286 00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:26,560 Speaker 3: it endure whatever changes in government are in the future, 287 00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:29,840 Speaker 3: you need to say, right we're going to have a 288 00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 3: massive capital spending program focused on infrastructure. Stuff like the 289 00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:36,160 Speaker 3: deed in hospital. We're going to invest in and we're 290 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:38,720 Speaker 3: going to pay for that by taking on debt and 291 00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:40,560 Speaker 3: then have a CGT pay for it in the future. 292 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:43,400 Speaker 3: The problem for Labor is that everyone says, yeah, you've 293 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 3: made big promises in the past. Where is that light rail? 294 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:48,599 Speaker 3: How many kilometers of light rail did we get in 295 00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:50,719 Speaker 3: the six years ago you were in government, including the 296 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:53,160 Speaker 3: three you had a majority.

Vary sober Our, AENI political correspondent, will be 341 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:18,960 Speaker 3: in with details on a fascinating Supreme Court decision out 342 00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:22,280 Speaker 3: this afternoon. Essentially the Supreme Court has overruled the Court 343 00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:24,880 Speaker 3: of Appeal when it comes to a big decision on 344 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:27,680 Speaker 3: Maldi customary rights related to the foreshore and sea bed. 345 00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:30,560 Speaker 3: This is a decision that has contributed to the whole 346 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:35,400 Speaker 3: Marine and what is it Marine and Conservation Areas Act 347 00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:37,040 Speaker 3: that has been debated at the moment. So we're going 348 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:39,720 Speaker 3: to give you the details on that very shortly. Indeed, 349 00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:42,520 Speaker 3: right now it is twenty four to five, it's. 350 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:45,640 Speaker 1: The World Wires on news. Dogs'd be drive. 351 00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 3: And US President Joe Biden has pardoned his son Hunter Hunter. 352 00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:53,120 Speaker 3: Biden has been convicted, of course, of lying about drug 353 00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:56,520 Speaker 3: use when buying a gun and failing to pay his taxes. 354 00:16:56,840 --> 00:17:00,600 Speaker 3: Joe Biden had previously promised not to pardon Hunt. That 355 00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:05,399 Speaker 3: CNN's Jeff Zelina says Jill may have convinced Joe to 356 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:06,280 Speaker 3: change his mind. 357 00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:10,919 Speaker 7: Porch Lady Jill Biden was very supportive of the President 358 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:13,879 Speaker 7: doing something like this. The President was not sure, but 359 00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:16,320 Speaker 7: we clearly have seen now he has come to this 360 00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:18,920 Speaker 7: decision to pardon to sent Hunter. 361 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:22,720 Speaker 3: Protests have been held outside George's Parliament building for the 362 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:26,320 Speaker 3: fourth night in a row. Protesters are angry at the 363 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:30,320 Speaker 3: Georgian government's decision to suspend talks on entering the European Union. 364 00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:31,720 Speaker 3: He has one of the demonstrators. 365 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:36,120 Speaker 12: Every single day has more and more people coming, and 366 00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 12: it gives me hope that this government will finally go away. 367 00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:42,000 Speaker 3: And finally. 368 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:45,960 Speaker 1: I think you're a sexist, misogynist dinosaur. 369 00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 3: Thank you, Dame Judy. That's Dame Judy Dench and she's 370 00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:51,280 Speaker 3: revealed that her pet parrot is a bit of a 371 00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:54,800 Speaker 3: potty mouth. Sweety, the African gray parrot was given to 372 00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:58,160 Speaker 3: Dame Judy as a Christmas present during the COVID nineteen pandemic. 373 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:01,200 Speaker 3: Since then, Sweety has on a Asian called Dame Judy's 374 00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:05,280 Speaker 3: house to keep our slag and called Dame Judy's grandson's 375 00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 3: girlfriend and even nastier words starting with s l. You 376 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:13,400 Speaker 3: can work out the rest. Dame Judy says she has 377 00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:17,040 Speaker 3: no idea how the bird learned those naughty, naughty words. 378 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:21,440 Speaker 2: International Correspondence with Ends and Eye Insurance, Peace of Mind 379 00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:23,800 Speaker 2: for New Zealand Business and. 380 00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:26,240 Speaker 3: Six PR Firth Life present to Oli Peterson is with 381 00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:28,960 Speaker 3: us this afternoon. Helled, Ollie Jack, you. 382 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:32,120 Speaker 13: Are trending right across Australia over the last forty eight 383 00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:35,280 Speaker 13: hours or so, am I Yeah, you interview with the PM. 384 00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:38,600 Speaker 13: Everybody's saying this is how we should talk to prime ministers. 385 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:40,560 Speaker 3: Look at you go, Jack, Well, I can assure that 386 00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:45,320 Speaker 3: not everyone is saying that only not everyone is saying that. No, 387 00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:48,320 Speaker 3: it's always a good wealth in my line of works. 388 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:50,760 Speaker 3: Sometimes it's a good idea to turn the notifications off, 389 00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:51,119 Speaker 3: you know. 390 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:53,720 Speaker 13: Yeah, I never read any of the comments on social 391 00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:54,560 Speaker 13: media about myself. 392 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:56,960 Speaker 3: What was the point? No, no, no, no, no, that's it. No, 393 00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:00,879 Speaker 3: that's news to me. Well making a in Australia, right, 394 00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:06,760 Speaker 3: we all have dreams. The National Energy Regulator wants the 395 00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:10,560 Speaker 3: ability to remotely switch off rooftop solar and given how 396 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:14,520 Speaker 3: many homes have rooftop solar in Australia, this is massive, huge, 397 00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:15,440 Speaker 3: So we're talking now. 398 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 13: About four million homes in Australia that have rooftop solar 399 00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,919 Speaker 13: and it's really been a big push, particularly over my 400 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:24,359 Speaker 13: side of the country in Wa where we have an 401 00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:26,720 Speaker 13: abundance of sunshine, and we've been some of the earlier 402 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:28,760 Speaker 13: adopters of this technology. 403 00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:31,360 Speaker 3: In fact, they already have the ability to be able. 404 00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 13: To turn off for one of a better term that 405 00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:37,000 Speaker 13: power being generated which can be sold back into the grid. 406 00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:40,520 Speaker 13: So that is what is being proposed here by AMIO, 407 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:44,240 Speaker 13: which is the national energy market operator, that they can 408 00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:46,760 Speaker 13: just all of a sudden pause, the fact that you 409 00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 13: can send that energy from your rooftop solar back into 410 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 13: the grid for everybody else to use because they're just 411 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:54,200 Speaker 13: going to have too much of it. It seems really odd, 412 00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:56,720 Speaker 13: you know, in theory, to be honest to Jack, because 413 00:19:57,000 --> 00:20:00,600 Speaker 13: we have an energy crisis in this country being told 414 00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 13: on the Eastern States at the moment to you know, 415 00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:05,600 Speaker 13: prioritize this summer. You can't really put your washing machine 416 00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:07,000 Speaker 13: on at the same time as you want to cool 417 00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:10,040 Speaker 13: and perhaps watch the television and have your conditioning system on. 418 00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:12,600 Speaker 13: So this sort of stuff just blows your mind when 419 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:14,639 Speaker 13: you think, hold on, you're all telling us to go 420 00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:18,000 Speaker 13: and get rooftop solar, try and give us some subsidies 421 00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:20,000 Speaker 13: for batteries, and if we want to sell it back 422 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:22,280 Speaker 13: into the grid, you're telling us you don't have the 423 00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 13: capacity to collect it. Something is massively flawed with any 424 00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 13: system's infrastructure here. Jack, that while people are doing the 425 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:32,679 Speaker 13: right thing going down the path and putting rooftop solar 426 00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:36,320 Speaker 13: in their homes and try to generate their own power 427 00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:38,160 Speaker 13: and will sell it back to Australians. 428 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:41,359 Speaker 3: They're being told they can't. It's just madness. Just like 429 00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:45,040 Speaker 3: it seems like a real failure of kind of infrastructure 430 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:48,160 Speaker 3: planning or something. Right, like, what is an alternative? Could 431 00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:51,159 Speaker 3: they basically need to have large capacity battery storage or 432 00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:51,639 Speaker 3: something like that? 433 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:51,960 Speaker 1: Right? 434 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:54,760 Speaker 13: Yes, yes, and there are some subsidies for those batteries, 435 00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:56,399 Speaker 13: but you know we're talking home having to then go 436 00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:58,880 Speaker 13: and spend potentially the other ten thousand dollars to put 437 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:00,919 Speaker 13: those batteries into their home. Yeah, they don't have that, 438 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:02,600 Speaker 13: so they can make a couple of bucks selling it 439 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:04,600 Speaker 13: back to the energy regulator. 440 00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:05,000 Speaker 1: Why not? 441 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:08,200 Speaker 3: So to be totally clear, So that's for a battery 442 00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:11,679 Speaker 3: at home, But is there not like a a larger 443 00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:14,680 Speaker 3: scale grid option, you know, like in New Zealand over 444 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 3: recent years, for example, they've been talking about having a 445 00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:19,920 Speaker 3: lake that essentially you use when you've got when you're 446 00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:23,280 Speaker 3: generating heaps of electricity, you can push the water uphill, 447 00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:25,200 Speaker 3: use that energy to push the water uphill and then 448 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:27,080 Speaker 3: let it flow down until later on, so that you 449 00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:28,800 Speaker 3: have it as a battery and you can use it 450 00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:30,960 Speaker 3: when the sun isn't shining, for example, there's no spot 451 00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:32,440 Speaker 3: like that. No, and that's what we need. 452 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:35,000 Speaker 13: We need that on a large scale infrastructure, you know, 453 00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:37,119 Speaker 13: project there's more people have decided to put solar on. 454 00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:39,119 Speaker 13: You'd think that you could be able to store what 455 00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:41,119 Speaker 13: is being generated there to then share it around when 456 00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:41,520 Speaker 13: you need it. 457 00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:44,560 Speaker 3: Interesting. Okay, So three colleges have been closed down for 458 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:46,240 Speaker 3: issuing fake diplomas. 459 00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:49,920 Speaker 13: Yeah, and we're talking here about seventeen thousand students. So 460 00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:53,000 Speaker 13: these are based in Sydney, Adelaide and Melbourne and people 461 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:56,800 Speaker 13: who might have qualifications in early childhood education, do the 462 00:21:56,840 --> 00:22:01,120 Speaker 13: disability support, age care, community services and first date. It's 463 00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:03,880 Speaker 13: long been argued that a lot of these so called 464 00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:06,639 Speaker 13: education colleges have just been set up as a rout 465 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:10,240 Speaker 13: to bring in international students, to not only line the 466 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:13,000 Speaker 13: pockets of the educators, but to also provide an opportunity 467 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:15,520 Speaker 13: for migrants to move into Australia and not really get 468 00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:17,359 Speaker 13: the qualifications they thought they were going to get, but 469 00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:19,760 Speaker 13: it could be advertised at a price that they can 470 00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:21,520 Speaker 13: get the mid of the country. So these ghosts quote 471 00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:25,600 Speaker 13: colleges have been shut down. The whole sector is on notice. 472 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:28,160 Speaker 13: And really this plays into the hands of the government 473 00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:30,159 Speaker 13: which is saying it will crack down on migration, and 474 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:34,480 Speaker 13: it turns its attention towards international students and colleges because ultimately, Jack, 475 00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:37,359 Speaker 13: they don't vote, so that they're the easy solution, not 476 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:40,080 Speaker 13: the structural problems that we have with migration at the moment. 477 00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:41,760 Speaker 13: Just get rid of the students because they're not going 478 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:44,200 Speaker 13: to vote either way. So the government looks like they're 479 00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:45,240 Speaker 13: doing something when they're not really. 480 00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:48,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, fascinating. Now a company that owns about two 481 00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:50,600 Speaker 3: hundred pubs and bars around Australia, is it's not going 482 00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:53,720 Speaker 3: to be holding any Australia Days celebrations at any of 483 00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:54,320 Speaker 3: its venues. 484 00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:57,600 Speaker 13: Why, Yeah, Well, this is the annual debate in Australia 485 00:22:57,600 --> 00:22:59,440 Speaker 13: about whether or not we should celebrate on the twenty 486 00:22:59,480 --> 00:22:59,920 Speaker 13: sixth of. 487 00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:02,640 Speaker 14: I just you know what, I call it Invasion Day, 488 00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:05,159 Speaker 14: the correct yeah right, But I didn't really have it 489 00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:07,639 Speaker 14: on my Bingo card for December one and two. You know, 490 00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:09,560 Speaker 14: I just thought, let's get let's get Christmas out of 491 00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:11,679 Speaker 14: the way and return to the airwaves in the. 492 00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:13,440 Speaker 3: Middle of January and start So I'm sure we move 493 00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:15,960 Speaker 3: the date or not. No, Australian venues Co. 494 00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:19,119 Speaker 13: And we're talking here some of the most popular pubs 495 00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:22,400 Speaker 13: and bars in locations like Darling Harbor. You've got Cargo Bar, 496 00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:25,200 Speaker 13: which is one of the most famous bars in Sydney. 497 00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:28,080 Speaker 13: Plenty of pubs, as you said, right across the country, 498 00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:31,200 Speaker 13: including a dozen or so here in Perth. The Clermont 499 00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:33,160 Speaker 13: Hotels one that I go to, So you know, people 500 00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:34,960 Speaker 13: are saying I'll never go there again, you know. And 501 00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:37,440 Speaker 13: the irony here is, you know, they do call themselves 502 00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:41,120 Speaker 13: Australian venues Co. They don't want to celebrate Australia Day. Look, 503 00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:44,359 Speaker 13: I think ultimately again it's the same issue that pops 504 00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:46,280 Speaker 13: up every year. Do we celebrate on the twenty sixth 505 00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:49,200 Speaker 13: of January or not? Now that this pub group's going early, 506 00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:52,119 Speaker 13: it's reignited the debate. Will anybody actually move the date? No, 507 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:53,720 Speaker 13: because no one can find an alternative date. 508 00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:54,200 Speaker 9: But we go. 509 00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:57,760 Speaker 3: Round and round in circles. Hey, thanks for your time, 510 00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:01,840 Speaker 3: Mollie appreciated as always. That is Peterson six PR Perth 511 00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:04,680 Speaker 3: Live presenter. So the data is in from the Black 512 00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:10,920 Speaker 3: Friday Sales for transactions over the sales weekend Worldline, which 513 00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:14,000 Speaker 3: is in New Zealand's Payments network. They've counached the numbers 514 00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 3: basically where New Zealanders have spent more or less the 515 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:19,640 Speaker 3: same as last year, so not exactly the same, but 516 00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:21,239 Speaker 3: more or less the same. Here's the thing, though, they 517 00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:26,320 Speaker 3: had slightly more transactions, but the average transaction price was 518 00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:28,639 Speaker 3: slightly lower than last year. But it's interesting when you 519 00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:32,000 Speaker 3: go through the regions. Different regions have really different numbers 520 00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:35,440 Speaker 3: to last year. So in Auckland and north And for example, 521 00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:38,080 Speaker 3: the annual change is down one point five percent, so 522 00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:40,560 Speaker 3: spending has gone down one point five percent since Black 523 00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:44,120 Speaker 3: Frider sales from last year tell you what though things 524 00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:48,240 Speaker 3: are going gangbuses in Taranaki, Hawk's Bay, Gisbon as well. 525 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:50,840 Speaker 3: So Taranaki they had a thirteen percent increase on last year, 526 00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:54,160 Speaker 3: almost fourteen percent increase, Hawk's Bay eleven percent on last year. 527 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:56,960 Speaker 3: Gisbon up nineteen percent on last year. I suppose that 528 00:24:57,040 --> 00:25:00,800 Speaker 3: you look at the storm damag from last year in 529 00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:02,280 Speaker 3: that part of the country and think that maybe that 530 00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:04,639 Speaker 3: contributed to some of that. But yeah, big spend in 531 00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:07,960 Speaker 3: Hawks Bay and Tartanaki and Gisbon over the weekend nationwide, 532 00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:11,000 Speaker 3: though about the same as last year. Which feels about right, 533 00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:13,680 Speaker 3: doesn't it when you think about where GDP is at 534 00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:16,280 Speaker 3: at the moment. Can't of stagnant growth for the time being, 535 00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:20,160 Speaker 3: relatively stagnant Black Friday sales as well. And a couple 536 00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:22,760 Speaker 3: of minutes, Barry Soper's here with our political update right 537 00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:24,440 Speaker 3: now at this quarter to five. You're with Jack Tame 538 00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:27,080 Speaker 3: on News Talks dB Politics. 539 00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:30,160 Speaker 2: With Centric Credit, check your customers and get payments Certainty. 540 00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:33,359 Speaker 3: And News Talks. dB Senior political correspondent Barry Soapa is 541 00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 3: here with us this afternoon. Kielder ser good afternoon, Jack. 542 00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:38,720 Speaker 3: So the Supreme Court with a significant decision this afternoon. 543 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:42,480 Speaker 5: It's actually quite significant and there will be a lot 544 00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:47,320 Speaker 5: of upset, I would imagine, certainly in Marridom for a start, 545 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:52,240 Speaker 5: because you're the Court of Appeal judgment last year that 546 00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:55,439 Speaker 5: was in October last year. They is the test for 547 00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:58,600 Speaker 5: Maldi to game customly titled the foreshort and See, but 548 00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:02,240 Speaker 5: it goes back twenty year. Is as to Helen Clark's government, 549 00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:07,439 Speaker 5: the ruling allowed by the Appeal there was an appeal 550 00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:10,600 Speaker 5: by the Attorney General that today has been upheld by 551 00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:16,160 Speaker 5: the Supreme Court. What they've done is when this government 552 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:20,639 Speaker 5: at basically what to restore what was intended in the 553 00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:23,880 Speaker 5: Foreshaw on Seabed Act, and that was to ensure that 554 00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:31,159 Speaker 5: they had exclusive rights if they had uninterrupted access to 555 00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:34,840 Speaker 5: various parts of the Foreshow and the seabed. But two 556 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 5: Court of Appeal judges decided that bar was too high. 557 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:42,640 Speaker 5: That was the October ruling. They ruled it was inconsistent 558 00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:45,560 Speaker 5: with the Treaty of White Tonguey. Now that gets down 559 00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:49,400 Speaker 5: to the argument, I guess between who is the supreme 560 00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:52,119 Speaker 5: court in this country? Is at Parliament or is it 561 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 5: the courts? Well, the Court of Appeal have made it 562 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:59,440 Speaker 5: quite clear today. These two Court of Appeal judges who 563 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,760 Speaker 5: basically decided that the bar was too high in this 564 00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 5: earlier legislation, they've been overruled. Now the two judges basically 565 00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:13,879 Speaker 5: were Justice David Goddard who was appointed five years ago 566 00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:18,280 Speaker 5: and Justice Mark Cooper, the former President of the Court 567 00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:23,160 Speaker 5: of Appeal. He retired just a few weeks ago. Interestingly, 568 00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:26,320 Speaker 5: and the judge who dissented there was one judge and 569 00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:30,439 Speaker 5: the three judge decision who dissented on the decision, that 570 00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:34,480 Speaker 5: was Justice Forest Miller. Well where's he He's now on 571 00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:38,800 Speaker 5: the Supreme Court which made this ruling today, and he 572 00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:42,359 Speaker 5: was one of Judith Collins as the Attorney general first 573 00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:47,440 Speaker 5: appointment when she became Attorney General in December last year. 574 00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:51,479 Speaker 5: It's been a lot of toing and throwing in this, 575 00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:56,239 Speaker 5: but look, really it gets back to the argument, doesn't it. 576 00:27:56,320 --> 00:28:00,399 Speaker 5: And I think the Parliament has to be spre when 577 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:04,080 Speaker 5: it comes to making laws and the laws to be 578 00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:06,800 Speaker 5: adhered to. And this to me is a really classic 579 00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:10,280 Speaker 5: case of Mauri won't like it, No doubt there will 580 00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:12,800 Speaker 5: be a lot of a lot of protest about it. 581 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:17,120 Speaker 5: But and they don't like the Marine and Coastal Area Act. 582 00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:19,960 Speaker 3: But yeah, yeah, it's interesting. I mean, I mean because 583 00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:22,640 Speaker 3: that I suppose that same tension cuts to the heart 584 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:26,320 Speaker 3: of the Treaty principals debate as well, Right, who who 585 00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:28,800 Speaker 3: should be interpreting the Treaty? Should have been the Court? 586 00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:30,440 Speaker 3: Should it be the should it be the Parliament? Who 587 00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 3: should be? Yeah? Yeah, these are there's are interesting kind 588 00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:33,360 Speaker 3: of constitutionals. 589 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:38,000 Speaker 5: I think I heard you say yesterday Jack that David 590 00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:40,600 Speaker 5: Seymour got what he wanted. Well, in fact, he did 591 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:43,000 Speaker 5: get He's got a lot what he wanted. And that 592 00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:46,160 Speaker 5: was debate on the issue. We're all having it. This 593 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:49,240 Speaker 5: will add to it significantly. So he's got the debate 594 00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:53,920 Speaker 5: and it might be voted down. But don't forget he 595 00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:57,720 Speaker 5: was the proponent of the euthanasia bill that was voted 596 00:28:57,760 --> 00:29:00,760 Speaker 5: down initially. And what have we got today. You know, 597 00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:02,440 Speaker 5: that's how legislation goes on. 598 00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:07,040 Speaker 3: Many occasions, marriage and that kind of thing. Right. Yeah, Now, 599 00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 3: Chris Hopkins made a lot of promises at the Labor 600 00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:12,920 Speaker 3: Party conference over the weekend. 601 00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:15,800 Speaker 5: Well, the dneied in hospital will be very happy. I'm 602 00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:18,080 Speaker 5: not sure they will go back to the more than 603 00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:21,520 Speaker 5: three billion dollars that they were up for. But he's 604 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:25,600 Speaker 5: not going into Orcas while Orcus is actually basically stalled 605 00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:29,760 Speaker 5: at the moment. And and I saw Andrew Little this 606 00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:34,320 Speaker 5: morning saying that, look, it's an easy decision to say 607 00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:37,680 Speaker 5: this because it's going nowhere at the moment. But I'd 608 00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:41,360 Speaker 5: suggest when Trump gets into office, if it's seen as 609 00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:45,560 Speaker 5: being anti China, Trump will rekindle it and it'll be 610 00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:49,000 Speaker 5: very much back on the agenda. And I think it's 611 00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:51,800 Speaker 5: Chris Sipkins is sort of lost in the fact that 612 00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:56,760 Speaker 5: UCUS is about for the Pillar two is about technology 613 00:29:57,120 --> 00:30:01,600 Speaker 5: as opposed to nuclear submarine means, which is what the. 614 00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:03,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, no, we're not We're not getting nucleus ups and 615 00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:06,240 Speaker 3: I mean we can maintain our nuclear free status while 616 00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 3: joining pillartoos my understanding. 617 00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:11,480 Speaker 5: But yeah, the thing that was missed in the speech 618 00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:14,640 Speaker 5: yesterday by the media and talking about it, I felt 619 00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:18,760 Speaker 5: was that he said before the last election he worked 620 00:30:18,760 --> 00:30:22,240 Speaker 5: out ruling with Winston Peters and he hasn't once regretted it. 621 00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:24,960 Speaker 5: So what does that say He's going to do it again, 622 00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:27,520 Speaker 5: no doubt He's sort of committed to it here. So 623 00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:31,080 Speaker 5: what does it mean as coalition partner presumably will have 624 00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:33,040 Speaker 5: to be the Maldi party in this they can pull 625 00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:35,440 Speaker 5: off what they did in twenty twenty. 626 00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:38,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, the Maldi Party in the Greens, right, Yeah, the 627 00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:41,840 Speaker 3: three party coalitional support deal which is a coalition of 628 00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:44,040 Speaker 3: car and an interesting thought. Yeah, okay, hey, thank you 629 00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:47,080 Speaker 3: very much. Barry to se he has always senior political correspondent, 630 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:49,480 Speaker 3: Barry Soco. Right now, it has just come up to 631 00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:51,840 Speaker 3: seven to five, putting. 632 00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:54,920 Speaker 2: The tough questions to the newspeakers. The mic asking. 633 00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:57,040 Speaker 15: Breakfast played the leader Chris Hopkins swimmers. Did you read 634 00:30:57,040 --> 00:30:58,840 Speaker 15: Peter Dunn's article over the weekend? 635 00:30:59,280 --> 00:30:59,760 Speaker 16: I have seen that. 636 00:30:59,840 --> 00:31:02,520 Speaker 15: One pieces, the government's going pretty well and compared with 637 00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:05,360 Speaker 15: a lot of governments around the world, they're actually performing 638 00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:06,760 Speaker 15: quite well. You wouldn't want to hear that. 639 00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 17: Oh, I don't agree with that. I mean, I think 640 00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:11,560 Speaker 17: that overall our economy is getting worse the decisions that 641 00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:15,080 Speaker 17: this government have taken. Who contributed to the economic situation 642 00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:16,440 Speaker 17: that we're in at the moment. I mean, they've been 643 00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:18,160 Speaker 17: in government for a year now and they want to 644 00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:20,959 Speaker 17: continue to blame the previous government through everything that's been happening. 645 00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:23,320 Speaker 17: But actually they need to start accepting responsibility for the 646 00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:24,520 Speaker 17: decisions that they have taken. 647 00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:27,320 Speaker 15: Even though you and government spent your full six years 648 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:29,880 Speaker 15: blaming the previous government, so you didn't take your own advice. 649 00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:31,320 Speaker 1: That's true. 650 00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:34,320 Speaker 15: Back tomorrow at six am, the Mike Hosking Breakfast with 651 00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:36,240 Speaker 15: the Rain drove the lah News talk z. 652 00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:39,240 Speaker 3: Be dearing me tricky news out of Farewell Split, Golden Bay, 653 00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 3: top of the South Island, the northwest corner of the 654 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:46,040 Speaker 3: South Island, who've currently got a pilot well stranding there. 655 00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:49,280 Speaker 3: Doc says that they've got thirty to forty pilot whales 656 00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:51,760 Speaker 3: that have stranded their staff working alongside the Community and 657 00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:54,640 Speaker 3: Project Joanah New Zealand to try and refloat some of those. 658 00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:56,320 Speaker 3: It's a part of the country, you know, there are 659 00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:59,959 Speaker 3: certain parts of the country where pilot wales always strand 660 00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:02,400 Speaker 3: they do it all the time. In fact, if you 661 00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:04,480 Speaker 3: go for a walk along certain parts of Farewells but 662 00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:06,760 Speaker 3: you can actually sadly find a lot of bones from 663 00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:09,120 Speaker 3: the pilot whales that have stranded there in the past. 664 00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:12,640 Speaker 3: So hopefully they can manage to refloat some of those 665 00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:14,440 Speaker 3: pilot whales and not obviously we'll keep you up to 666 00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:17,400 Speaker 3: date if we get any further updates from Doc. After 667 00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:19,080 Speaker 3: five o'clock this evening, we're going to catch up with 668 00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:22,720 Speaker 3: the Social Development Minister. The government is concerned by the 669 00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 3: increasing number of job seekers on the benefit. At the moment, 670 00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:29,760 Speaker 3: I suppose no huge surprise in one sense, as unemployment 671 00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:32,720 Speaker 3: continues to rise I think currently forecast to rise until 672 00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:35,280 Speaker 3: the early part of next year. No great surprise that 673 00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:37,840 Speaker 3: those numbers are headed in the wrong direction. But they're 674 00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:39,800 Speaker 3: taking new steps to try and bring the numbers down. 675 00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:41,400 Speaker 3: So I'm going to tell you a bit more about 676 00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:44,800 Speaker 3: that as well as that we are five six days on, 677 00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:48,240 Speaker 3: five days on since those changes to the OCR. Fifty 678 00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:51,000 Speaker 3: basis points taken off the OCR. Most of the markets 679 00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:54,280 Speaker 3: were expecting it, but we haven't seen much movement from 680 00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:57,560 Speaker 3: the banks in the days since the Reserve Bank made 681 00:32:57,560 --> 00:33:02,360 Speaker 3: that call. Why only big changes? We've really seen around 682 00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:06,920 Speaker 3: floating rates, the big fixed rates though, no major changes. 683 00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:08,840 Speaker 3: So when are change is likely to come? We'll tell 684 00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:11,200 Speaker 3: you more after five. It's almost five you with Jack 685 00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:13,160 Speaker 3: tame and the Heather.

Louise upstent Is, 698 00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:56,480 Speaker 3: the Social Development Minister, is with us Evening Kyodo Good Evening, minister, 699 00:33:57,120 --> 00:33:59,640 Speaker 3: Good afternoon, Jack. Why has that number increased so much? 700 00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:02,640 Speaker 18: Well, we did know that because of the state of 701 00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:05,680 Speaker 18: the economy, the numbers were always forecast to go up 702 00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:10,040 Speaker 18: before they come down, and Treasury with their BFU forecast 703 00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:13,279 Speaker 18: had expected that peak in January next year, So no 704 00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:17,560 Speaker 18: surprises there. But we are putting more effort in supporting 705 00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:21,480 Speaker 18: people with their opportunities to find work. 706 00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:23,960 Speaker 3: So what do you reckon the numbers will likely peek 707 00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:25,960 Speaker 3: at alongside unemployment. 708 00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:31,439 Speaker 18: Well, we're at four point eight percent unemployment rate and 709 00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:34,680 Speaker 18: the peak is expected at five point two percent, so 710 00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:38,640 Speaker 18: the numbers are likely to still keep going up, which 711 00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:42,480 Speaker 18: is why it's really important we take efforts now to 712 00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:45,680 Speaker 18: provide assistance to people to help them and improve their 713 00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:46,759 Speaker 18: chances to get a job. 714 00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:49,839 Speaker 3: But we could, I mean, theoretically, at the very least 715 00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:52,280 Speaker 3: be looking at another ten thousand people on the benefit 716 00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:54,759 Speaker 3: right if those numbers hold true. 717 00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:57,719 Speaker 18: Yeah, And look, as I said, the numbers were forecast 718 00:34:58,200 --> 00:35:01,360 Speaker 18: to get worse before they got better, which is why 719 00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:05,120 Speaker 18: we've now got seventy thousand people in case management, ten 720 00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:08,319 Speaker 18: thousand over the phone, which is a new initiative and 721 00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:09,680 Speaker 18: working really well. 722 00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:12,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, talk us, talk to us about an individual job plan. 723 00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:14,480 Speaker 3: What does that actually involve? 724 00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:17,759 Speaker 18: Yeah, so what we as part of our Welfare that 725 00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:21,880 Speaker 18: Works reform, for the seventy thousands that are on case management, 726 00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:26,360 Speaker 18: they will have an individual needs assessment and then they'll 727 00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:29,960 Speaker 18: create a job plan with their case manager. So we 728 00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:33,080 Speaker 18: do know for some people they've got more barriers to work. 729 00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:35,360 Speaker 18: It might be childcare, it might be they don't have 730 00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:37,960 Speaker 18: a driver's license, it might be that they've got literacy 731 00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:42,200 Speaker 18: or numeracy challenges. So they'll have those sorts of activities 732 00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:47,120 Speaker 18: built into their individual job plan to improve their chances 733 00:35:47,239 --> 00:35:49,160 Speaker 18: of being in work. And that's what it's all about. 734 00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:51,000 Speaker 18: So I want to provide support they need. 735 00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:52,680 Speaker 3: Yeah. So, so just to be clear when you say 736 00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:55,120 Speaker 3: you have that built into their job plan, as in 737 00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:57,600 Speaker 3: you have them, you have it. You tell them to 738 00:35:57,600 --> 00:35:59,400 Speaker 3: go and see Mengfoon and get a driver's license. 739 00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:05,520 Speaker 18: So they'll create their individual plan with their case manager. 740 00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:09,520 Speaker 18: So if they need a driver's license, then yes, we'll 741 00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:14,080 Speaker 18: connect them with an MSD funded program, and there's some 742 00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:17,560 Speaker 18: great programs around the country. For other people, it might 743 00:36:17,640 --> 00:36:20,600 Speaker 18: be more complex, and so we want to make sure 744 00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:24,719 Speaker 18: that we are addressing the individual barriers that someone faces 745 00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:26,640 Speaker 18: to improve their chances of getting a job. 746 00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:28,800 Speaker 3: So how many people are going to get this individual 747 00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:30,960 Speaker 3: job plan? How do you handle that from the case 748 00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:31,760 Speaker 3: manager site? 749 00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:36,160 Speaker 18: Yeah, So, as I said, there'll be seventy thousand in 750 00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:40,239 Speaker 18: case management now, up from fifty three thousand a year ago. 751 00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:44,719 Speaker 18: So that's a significant improvement. And then each one of 752 00:36:44,760 --> 00:36:48,399 Speaker 18: those people over time who have a case manager will 753 00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:52,040 Speaker 18: have that needs assessment and an individual job plan because 754 00:36:52,080 --> 00:36:55,080 Speaker 18: we want to we want to really interrupt that cycle 755 00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:58,720 Speaker 18: of welfare dependency and we want people to be in work, 756 00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:02,000 Speaker 18: and we recognize that some have more challenges and need 757 00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:03,200 Speaker 18: more support than others. 758 00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:06,719 Speaker 3: So sanctions for people who don't meet their obligations have 759 00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:10,400 Speaker 3: increased from I think eight thousand in September twenty twenty 760 00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:13,680 Speaker 3: three quarter through to fourteen thousand and September twenty four. 761 00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:16,479 Speaker 3: What does that say about how sanctions are actually working 762 00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:17,240 Speaker 3: as a deterrent. 763 00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:22,520 Speaker 18: Well, it's working really well because ninety eight percent of 764 00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:25,560 Speaker 18: people are complying, so they're at green on the traffic 765 00:37:25,640 --> 00:37:29,279 Speaker 18: light system. They're taking the steps they need to. And 766 00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:33,800 Speaker 18: what we've seen despite their being really challenging economic times 767 00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:38,080 Speaker 18: in the four months July through to October twenty two 768 00:37:38,280 --> 00:37:42,840 Speaker 18: thousand people exited the Job Seeker Benefit into work, which 769 00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:45,640 Speaker 18: is four thy one hundred more than the same time 770 00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:48,759 Speaker 18: a year ago. So people taking the steps they need 771 00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:51,319 Speaker 18: to take is improving their chances of getting a job, 772 00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:53,000 Speaker 18: and that's what this is all about. 773 00:37:53,239 --> 00:37:56,000 Speaker 3: Thanks for your time, Social Development Minister Louise Upston. It's 774 00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:56,879 Speaker 3: eleven past five. 775 00:37:57,680 --> 00:37:58,160 Speaker 1: Team. 776 00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:01,200 Speaker 3: If you have a mortgage and you've been waiting and 777 00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:03,439 Speaker 3: waiting for your bank to pass on last week's fifty 778 00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:06,760 Speaker 3: basis point cut to the OCR, you might be waiting 779 00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:09,960 Speaker 3: for a while. Banks have all cut their floating rates, 780 00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:13,359 Speaker 3: but the term rates haven't really moved much since last week. 781 00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:15,760 Speaker 3: Bruce Patten is a mortgage advisor with US this evening 782 00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:16,239 Speaker 3: gilt up. 783 00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:18,200 Speaker 12: Hi there, how are you? 784 00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:18,560 Speaker 1: Yeah? 785 00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:20,880 Speaker 3: Well, thanks, So the OCR has been cut by fifty 786 00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:24,040 Speaker 3: basis points. Why haven't all mortgage rates been cut by 787 00:38:24,080 --> 00:38:24,760 Speaker 3: the same amount. 788 00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:28,200 Speaker 12: Well, you'll have seen that all the floating rates will 789 00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:31,719 Speaker 12: have probably almost all come down by now. A lot 790 00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:35,720 Speaker 12: of the fixed rates, it's not the OCR doesn't directly 791 00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:39,280 Speaker 12: relate to just them that there's people money on tom deposit. 792 00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:42,240 Speaker 12: You've got their swap rates for the overseas wholesale market. 793 00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:44,960 Speaker 12: And the other big fact at this time was that 794 00:38:45,719 --> 00:38:48,440 Speaker 12: everybody had fully priced in that we were going to 795 00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:51,360 Speaker 12: get fifty basis points. Whereas the last two cuts, it 796 00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:53,480 Speaker 12: was what are we going to get? Are we going 797 00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:55,120 Speaker 12: to get one? How much is it going to be? 798 00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:58,040 Speaker 12: So the market didn't really know this time. They knew 799 00:38:58,040 --> 00:39:01,279 Speaker 12: we were getting fifty maybe seventy five. So we saw 800 00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:03,440 Speaker 12: a few banks move a few days before we saw 801 00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:05,759 Speaker 12: the ben Z come down from six point four nine 802 00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:08,400 Speaker 12: to five nine nine on the Monday before the ocr 803 00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:10,960 Speaker 12: was even announced. Yeah, so a lot of the rates 804 00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:11,760 Speaker 12: had already moved. 805 00:39:12,080 --> 00:39:13,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, there was a bit of movement heading up to 806 00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:16,560 Speaker 3: the announcement itself. Does that mean that when it comes 807 00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:19,479 Speaker 3: to those fixed term rates, we're unlikely to see more 808 00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:22,560 Speaker 3: movement until we get closer to February's next cut? 809 00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:23,920 Speaker 19: That's right. 810 00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:25,080 Speaker 12: I think that's probably it. 811 00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:25,760 Speaker 19: For Christmas. 812 00:39:26,040 --> 00:39:28,440 Speaker 12: You might get lucky, some bank might decide they're going 813 00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:31,000 Speaker 12: to bring out a little special, but I would say 814 00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:33,560 Speaker 12: not because what you've got to remember is rates were 815 00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:37,719 Speaker 12: over seven only in August and we're now right down 816 00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:40,840 Speaker 12: to less than five and mid five in some cases. 817 00:39:40,920 --> 00:39:43,640 Speaker 12: So you know, we've had what one point twenty five 818 00:39:43,680 --> 00:39:45,960 Speaker 12: off the ocr Well, we've already had at least one 819 00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:48,720 Speaker 12: point twenty five off the fixed rates, So that says 820 00:39:48,760 --> 00:39:50,680 Speaker 12: to me, we've got all we're going to get. 821 00:39:50,960 --> 00:39:52,680 Speaker 3: What are people fixing for right now? 822 00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:58,120 Speaker 12: Mostly short term six or twelve months. If I was 823 00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:00,799 Speaker 12: to give anyone any advice, it would be just be 824 00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:04,560 Speaker 12: careful about fixing too long, because once everybody starts to 825 00:40:04,640 --> 00:40:08,080 Speaker 12: jump into those two three five year fixed rates, you 826 00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:09,960 Speaker 12: might see them start to go back up a bit 827 00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:11,960 Speaker 12: because at the moment, no one's using them, so the 828 00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:15,840 Speaker 12: banks really aren't doing anything with it. So my advice is, 829 00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:16,879 Speaker 12: don't leave it too long. 830 00:40:17,080 --> 00:40:18,120 Speaker 19: If you can. 831 00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:20,600 Speaker 12: Afford If we see a rate at say five or 832 00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:23,279 Speaker 12: four nine nine, if we were lucky and you can 833 00:40:23,360 --> 00:40:25,920 Speaker 12: afford that, take it, then don't try to wait for 834 00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:28,719 Speaker 12: another one point one point two fix it when it's 835 00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:29,640 Speaker 12: affordable for you. 836 00:40:30,040 --> 00:40:32,279 Speaker 3: Yeah. How competitive are the banks right now? 837 00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:37,240 Speaker 12: Well, were like, well, they're a bit like petual companies, 838 00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:40,960 Speaker 12: right they tend to be allowing one another quite quite closely. 839 00:40:41,520 --> 00:40:43,560 Speaker 12: And you've got to remember they're all sourcing their money 840 00:40:43,600 --> 00:40:47,240 Speaker 12: from the same place as well, so that it costs 841 00:40:47,239 --> 00:40:50,120 Speaker 12: them the same wherever. So when they're giving a special, 842 00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:55,080 Speaker 12: they're generally taking a bit of a hit, so they 843 00:40:55,080 --> 00:40:57,600 Speaker 12: don't tend to stay around for very long. So ain 844 00:40:57,760 --> 00:41:00,520 Speaker 12: Z priced one year at five five nine, not long 845 00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:03,720 Speaker 12: before the official cash rate. But then they did away 846 00:41:03,719 --> 00:41:06,880 Speaker 12: with it because I think they saw that maybe the 847 00:41:06,960 --> 00:41:09,080 Speaker 12: rate wasn't going to be cut by point seventy five, 848 00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:11,120 Speaker 12: so they thought, well, we better get rid of it 849 00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:14,680 Speaker 12: because it's costing us money. Yeah, So sometimes they will 850 00:41:14,880 --> 00:41:17,719 Speaker 12: when they're trying to attract new business, and other times 851 00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:19,879 Speaker 12: they're out of the market, but generally they're all much 852 00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:21,160 Speaker 12: of a muchness to be honest. 853 00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:23,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, thanks Bruce, appreciate it. That is Bruce Patten, 854 00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:26,879 Speaker 3: mortgage advisor, before six o'clock on Newstalks, he'd be Labor 855 00:41:26,880 --> 00:41:29,120 Speaker 3: had their party conference over the weekend, of course, and 856 00:41:29,200 --> 00:41:33,200 Speaker 3: announced that Labor will not be supporting New Zealand, joining ORCUS. 857 00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:35,160 Speaker 3: But as well as that, a little bit of movement 858 00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:37,680 Speaker 3: as they try and work out their tax policy ahead 859 00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:42,680 Speaker 3: of the next election. So one big remit on David 860 00:41:42,719 --> 00:41:45,879 Speaker 3: Parker's wealth tax got voted down, but another one which 861 00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:48,320 Speaker 3: will push the wealth tax and a potential capital gains 862 00:41:48,360 --> 00:41:52,279 Speaker 3: tax through to the party's policy committee that was supported 863 00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:54,120 Speaker 3: over the weekend. So what does this mean for the 864 00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:55,920 Speaker 3: future of a wealth tax. David Park is going to 865 00:41:55,920 --> 00:41:58,279 Speaker 3: be with us before six. Right now it is quarter 866 00:41:58,320 --> 00:42:03,880 Speaker 3: past five. The risk of shark attacks this summer is real. 867 00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:08,640 Speaker 3: That's because the BYD Shark six super hybrid ute has 868 00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:12,080 Speaker 3: just landed in BYD dealerships across the country. You heard 869 00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:14,400 Speaker 3: me talk about this new SuperTruck coming for a while 870 00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:16,959 Speaker 3: and it is now here. There is blood in the water, 871 00:42:17,440 --> 00:42:19,799 Speaker 3: and the Shark six is the ute that's got other 872 00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:23,840 Speaker 3: car companies scared. That's because this truck is four hundred 873 00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:26,000 Speaker 3: and thirty horse power, It can go zero to one 874 00:42:26,040 --> 00:42:29,839 Speaker 3: hundred clicks in just five point seven seconds and has 875 00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:32,760 Speaker 3: very low emissions. In fact, most people in city centers 876 00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:35,600 Speaker 3: would hardly ever use the petrol engine. It'll just be 877 00:42:35,719 --> 00:42:39,160 Speaker 3: driving an EV mode most of the time. Its total 878 00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:43,120 Speaker 3: range is up to eight hundred kilometers and it can 879 00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:45,560 Speaker 3: even tow the most you can legally toe on a 880 00:42:45,560 --> 00:42:48,799 Speaker 3: car license. The special launch pricing is just sixty nine 881 00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:51,200 Speaker 3: nine ninety plus on road cost, but you have to 882 00:42:51,239 --> 00:42:53,719 Speaker 3: be quick.

Yeah? 955 00:46:00,560 --> 00:46:00,960 Speaker 3: I think so. 956 00:46:01,040 --> 00:46:03,399 Speaker 16: I mean the guys that the guys are brilliant because 957 00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:05,239 Speaker 16: like the old police, they ever take it game by game, 958 00:46:05,239 --> 00:46:07,319 Speaker 16: I'm sure, But what they're actually doing is they're setting 959 00:46:07,320 --> 00:46:10,680 Speaker 16: themselves a challenge each game.

Despite explicitly promising time and 981 00:47:09,239 --> 00:47:12,319 Speaker 3: time again that he would not pardon his own son, 982 00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:16,480 Speaker 3: He's used his executive authority to do exactly that. Hunter 983 00:47:16,719 --> 00:47:20,240 Speaker 3: is off the hook. It just shows you how Biden 984 00:47:20,280 --> 00:47:23,320 Speaker 3: feels about the Democratic Party and about his congressional colleagues 985 00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:25,960 Speaker 3: right now. A bitter resentful without the burden of a 986 00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:29,360 Speaker 3: future election campaign, and in the knowledge that his legacy 987 00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:34,000 Speaker 3: has already been irreparably damaged by Donald Trump's reelection, he 988 00:47:34,080 --> 00:47:37,400 Speaker 3: must have just figured why the hell not? I mean, 989 00:47:37,520 --> 00:47:41,520 Speaker 3: forget mending partisan divisions, forget taking the moral high ground, 990 00:47:41,520 --> 00:47:45,600 Speaker 3: I mean, honestly, from the perspective of Joe Biden the individual. 991 00:47:46,760 --> 00:47:50,719 Speaker 3: You can kind of understand it, right. It doesn't mean 992 00:47:50,760 --> 00:47:53,360 Speaker 3: it's right though, I mean, honestly, it is a disgrace. 993 00:47:53,520 --> 00:47:58,000 Speaker 3: It is just completely It completely undermines the same justice 994 00:47:58,040 --> 00:48:01,000 Speaker 3: system which Democrats have for years he has been claiming 995 00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:06,480 Speaker 3: is independent, as impartial as it sought to prosecute President Trump. 996 00:48:07,160 --> 00:48:11,200 Speaker 3: Either the justice system is subject to political manipulation or 997 00:48:11,239 --> 00:48:13,440 Speaker 3: it isn't. You can't change your story just because you're 998 00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:16,160 Speaker 3: being shuffled out of office and there's no longer an 999 00:48:16,200 --> 00:48:19,120 Speaker 3: election in a few weeks time. It is just remarkable, 1000 00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:23,080 Speaker 3: really that he should make this decision, but that he 1001 00:48:23,080 --> 00:48:25,680 Speaker 3: should also make it in the same week that Donald 1002 00:48:25,719 --> 00:48:29,160 Speaker 3: Trump has appointed the soon to be US Envoy to France. 1003 00:48:29,200 --> 00:48:32,759 Speaker 3: Who's that, you ask, Oh, it's just Charles Kushner, the 1004 00:48:32,920 --> 00:48:35,839 Speaker 3: father of his son in law, Jared Kushner, the same 1005 00:48:35,920 --> 00:48:39,360 Speaker 3: man that Donald Trump pardoned shortly before he left office. 1006 00:48:39,480 --> 00:48:41,920 Speaker 3: Trump did it. Now Biden's done the same thing. I 1007 00:48:41,920 --> 00:48:45,759 Speaker 3: guess Biden figures, if you can't beat them, join them. 1008 00:48:45,800 --> 00:48:50,040 Speaker 3: But my god, we should can't ourselves. Lucky that here 1009 00:48:50,080 --> 00:48:53,319 Speaker 3: in New Zealand our system hasn't yet been poisoned to 1010 00:48:53,440 --> 00:48:57,239 Speaker 3: this extent. Americans may be more divided than ever, but 1011 00:48:57,360 --> 00:49:01,480 Speaker 3: they are united in their woeful regards art for foundational 1012 00:49:01,680 --> 00:49:05,799 Speaker 3: democratic institutions. Jack tam let me know your thoughts ninety 1013 00:49:05,800 --> 00:49:07,600 Speaker 3: two ninety two will ask the huddle about that four 1014 00:49:07,680 --> 00:49:10,040 Speaker 3: six o'clock this evening, clear law and Josie BGANI you 1015 00:49:10,040 --> 00:49:12,359 Speaker 3: are going to be and we'll also talk about to Papa. 1016 00:49:12,480 --> 00:49:16,160 Speaker 3: So to Papa is charging international visitors thirty five bucks 1017 00:49:16,160 --> 00:49:19,160 Speaker 3: per visit, but it is working. They've made seven hundred 1018 00:49:19,200 --> 00:49:21,239 Speaker 3: and fifty grand in the last couple of months. I'll 1019 00:49:21,280 --> 00:49:23,160 Speaker 3: tell you a bit more about that. It's almost five 1020 00:49:23,160 --> 00:49:25,279 Speaker 3: point thirty you were, Jack Tame for this is News 1021 00:49:25,280 --> 00:49:39,719 Speaker 3: Talk ZEDB. 1022 00:49:34,120 --> 00:49:36,680 Speaker 2: On your smart speaker, on the iHeart app and in 1023 00:49:36,760 --> 00:49:39,840 Speaker 2: your car on your drive home. It's Jack tam on 1024 00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:43,600 Speaker 2: Heather Duplessy Alan drive with one New Zealand let's get 1025 00:49:43,640 --> 00:49:45,280 Speaker 2: connected and New Talk SEDB. 1026 00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:54,760 Speaker 1: Some shot, some shots, some requested. You'll be seeing. 1027 00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:02,719 Speaker 3: You you with Jack Tayman for here, she's just feeling 1028 00:50:02,760 --> 00:50:05,759 Speaker 3: a bit underweather, so she should be back relatively soon. 1029 00:50:06,080 --> 00:50:09,359 Speaker 3: Fingers crossed. Before six o'clock, we're going to take a 1030 00:50:09,520 --> 00:50:13,400 Speaker 3: look at the situation with UK Master Chef host Greg Wallace. 1031 00:50:13,560 --> 00:50:17,200 Speaker 3: He's hit back at allegations and proper behavior by blaming 1032 00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:20,280 Speaker 3: the allegations on quote middle class women of a certain age, 1033 00:50:20,360 --> 00:50:24,200 Speaker 3: which is certainly one common strategy. We have two middle 1034 00:50:24,200 --> 00:50:26,000 Speaker 3: class women of a much younger age who are going 1035 00:50:26,040 --> 00:50:27,640 Speaker 3: to be on the huddle this evening clearer Laura and 1036 00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:29,680 Speaker 3: j C. Bagany with their thoughts shortly right now, it 1037 00:50:29,719 --> 00:50:32,640 Speaker 3: is twenty four minutes to seck Jack team and the 1038 00:50:32,680 --> 00:50:36,800 Speaker 3: current government is in talks regarding joining Pillar two of ORCUS, 1039 00:50:36,920 --> 00:50:40,040 Speaker 3: but Labor leader Chris Hopkins says no government he leads 1040 00:50:40,200 --> 00:50:43,080 Speaker 3: will join it. You remember that Orcus is a military 1041 00:50:43,120 --> 00:50:46,080 Speaker 3: agreement between Australia, the UK and the US. Pillar two 1042 00:50:46,200 --> 00:50:49,960 Speaker 3: is an agreement to share cutting edge military technologies between 1043 00:50:50,000 --> 00:50:53,279 Speaker 3: the member states. So Labor's announcement over the week has 1044 00:50:53,440 --> 00:50:56,840 Speaker 3: left former Labor Defense Minister Andrew a little a little 1045 00:50:56,840 --> 00:50:57,480 Speaker 3: bit confused. 1046 00:50:57,880 --> 00:51:01,240 Speaker 10: Those three partners are partners who will get more technology. 1047 00:51:01,320 --> 00:51:04,879 Speaker 10: Problem anyway, we'll always get it from them, so it's 1048 00:51:05,040 --> 00:51:07,560 Speaker 10: not starting up to that. We still have to have 1049 00:51:07,560 --> 00:51:08,480 Speaker 10: a relationship with them. 1050 00:51:08,480 --> 00:51:11,400 Speaker 3: What we're going to David Parker is the Labor Party's 1051 00:51:11,400 --> 00:51:13,600 Speaker 3: Foreign a fair spokesperson and is with us this evening, 1052 00:51:13,640 --> 00:51:17,040 Speaker 3: good evening, good evening, Jack. Why don't you want us 1053 00:51:17,080 --> 00:51:18,359 Speaker 3: to join ORCUST Pillar two? 1054 00:51:19,960 --> 00:51:23,160 Speaker 10: Because it's become increasingly clear that it is a China 1055 00:51:23,239 --> 00:51:27,200 Speaker 10: containment strategy from the point of view of the United States, 1056 00:51:28,120 --> 00:51:30,640 Speaker 10: and we don't think we should tie ourselves to that. 1057 00:51:30,920 --> 00:51:33,920 Speaker 10: We should try and plot a middle course between the 1058 00:51:33,960 --> 00:51:37,120 Speaker 10: superpowers rather than holy take the side of one. That 1059 00:51:37,160 --> 00:51:39,839 Speaker 10: doesn't mean to say we're unaligned. We do buy our 1060 00:51:39,920 --> 00:51:43,840 Speaker 10: kit from Australia from the US, and it's interoperable with 1061 00:51:43,960 --> 00:51:46,600 Speaker 10: systems in Australia, but we shouldn't be part of ORCUST. 1062 00:51:47,000 --> 00:51:48,760 Speaker 3: Does China need to be contained? 1063 00:51:50,239 --> 00:51:53,239 Speaker 10: Well, we don't perceive that there are any there's any 1064 00:51:53,239 --> 00:51:59,000 Speaker 10: immediate threat of them invading us. That there are things 1065 00:51:59,000 --> 00:52:01,719 Speaker 10: that China does that we disagree with, both in our 1066 00:52:01,760 --> 00:52:04,120 Speaker 10: own region, and of course they've got a completely different 1067 00:52:04,600 --> 00:52:08,000 Speaker 10: style of government in a communist one party state. We're 1068 00:52:08,000 --> 00:52:10,880 Speaker 10: a liberal democracy, but there are lots of countries in 1069 00:52:10,920 --> 00:52:14,160 Speaker 10: the world that we don't agree with. We nonetheless try 1070 00:52:14,200 --> 00:52:17,400 Speaker 10: and chart a peaceful course in support of the international 1071 00:52:17,520 --> 00:52:19,560 Speaker 10: rules based order that keeps us all safe. 1072 00:52:19,719 --> 00:52:22,640 Speaker 3: What would we actually get out of pillar two if 1073 00:52:22,680 --> 00:52:23,600 Speaker 3: we do join it. 1074 00:52:24,640 --> 00:52:27,880 Speaker 10: Well, that's never been completely clear. But one of the 1075 00:52:27,960 --> 00:52:30,719 Speaker 10: positives are not completely clear, because we already buy our 1076 00:52:30,800 --> 00:52:33,839 Speaker 10: kit out of the US, and that's already been made 1077 00:52:33,920 --> 00:52:36,319 Speaker 10: clear by the current US President that even if we 1078 00:52:36,320 --> 00:52:39,600 Speaker 10: weren't in August, they'd continue to sell us stuff. What 1079 00:52:39,640 --> 00:52:41,400 Speaker 10: we would get out of it in the negative is 1080 00:52:41,440 --> 00:52:45,240 Speaker 10: that we'd be clearly positioning ourselves against China. And although 1081 00:52:45,360 --> 00:52:47,839 Speaker 10: trade issues and economic issues are not the be all 1082 00:52:47,840 --> 00:52:50,719 Speaker 10: and end all, they are relevant. And of course Chia 1083 00:52:50,800 --> 00:52:53,640 Speaker 10: doesn't imposed tariffs on us, the US is talking about 1084 00:52:53,680 --> 00:52:54,680 Speaker 10: doing exactly that thing. 1085 00:52:54,880 --> 00:52:57,360 Speaker 3: How can you rule it out if it's not completely 1086 00:52:57,400 --> 00:52:58,600 Speaker 3: clear what we're actually getting. 1087 00:53:00,160 --> 00:53:04,960 Speaker 10: Well, the current government has already changed the wording around Aucus. 1088 00:53:05,400 --> 00:53:08,399 Speaker 10: They've said that they now see themselves as a force 1089 00:53:08,520 --> 00:53:11,560 Speaker 10: multiplier for the United States, you will call it. In 1090 00:53:11,680 --> 00:53:14,319 Speaker 10: yester year, the National Party disagreed with us on our 1091 00:53:14,360 --> 00:53:17,440 Speaker 10: stants in Iraq, said we should just follow Australia in 1092 00:53:17,480 --> 00:53:19,920 Speaker 10: the US into that illegal war in Iraq, which has 1093 00:53:19,920 --> 00:53:22,399 Speaker 10: made things worse in the region, not better. We think 1094 00:53:22,440 --> 00:53:25,760 Speaker 10: it's better for us to chart our traditional independent course 1095 00:53:25,800 --> 00:53:27,960 Speaker 10: and take our decisions case by case on what is 1096 00:53:28,000 --> 00:53:29,400 Speaker 10: in the national interest in New Zealand. 1097 00:53:29,520 --> 00:53:32,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, but wouldn't taking a decision in a case by 1098 00:53:32,040 --> 00:53:34,839 Speaker 3: case mode mean you actually waited to see what we 1099 00:53:34,840 --> 00:53:38,080 Speaker 3: were getting out of this explicitly before making that call. 1100 00:53:39,480 --> 00:53:41,960 Speaker 10: Well, I think we've had a number of public meetings 1101 00:53:42,000 --> 00:53:46,640 Speaker 10: that we've hosted in New Zealand, from Australian's critical of Aucus, 1102 00:53:46,760 --> 00:53:50,040 Speaker 10: from former New Zealand Prime ministers, from Pacific leaders expressing 1103 00:53:50,080 --> 00:53:52,879 Speaker 10: their concern about AUCUST. You just can't sit and wait 1104 00:53:52,880 --> 00:53:56,759 Speaker 10: forever until the National Party dumped this upon us without notice. 1105 00:53:56,800 --> 00:53:59,440 Speaker 10: They certainly didn't campaign upon it at the last election. 1106 00:53:59,520 --> 00:54:01,880 Speaker 10: It would be major chain in New Zealand's foreign policy 1107 00:54:01,920 --> 00:54:02,959 Speaker 10: and we don't think it should happen. 1108 00:54:03,160 --> 00:54:06,720 Speaker 3: So if the National Party or if the current government 1109 00:54:06,960 --> 00:54:11,239 Speaker 3: signs up to WUCAS before the next election, will you 1110 00:54:11,440 --> 00:54:12,440 Speaker 3: pull out of the deal? 1111 00:54:13,440 --> 00:54:15,359 Speaker 10: Yes, we've said we would, but in terms of the 1112 00:54:15,360 --> 00:54:17,960 Speaker 10: practicality of that, very little will have happened by then. 1113 00:54:18,440 --> 00:54:21,239 Speaker 10: In the Pillar one submarines that are nuclear power that 1114 00:54:21,280 --> 00:54:26,080 Speaker 10: Australia is purchasing, and that's controversial in Australia, they don't 1115 00:54:26,160 --> 00:54:29,800 Speaker 10: arrive until the twenty thirties, so you know, next elections 1116 00:54:29,800 --> 00:54:34,040 Speaker 10: what twenty twenty seven, sorry, twenty twenty six, so you 1117 00:54:34,080 --> 00:54:37,160 Speaker 10: know it's by then. I don't think there will be 1118 00:54:37,239 --> 00:54:41,440 Speaker 10: anything substantial that will have happened under August. Pillar Two's right. 1119 00:54:41,239 --> 00:54:44,759 Speaker 3: So you definitely have put you will definitely withdraw New 1120 00:54:44,840 --> 00:54:46,680 Speaker 3: Zealand from that agreement. 1121 00:54:46,719 --> 00:54:47,120 Speaker 9: That's right. 1122 00:54:47,239 --> 00:54:50,399 Speaker 10: Chris Hipkins has made that clear. We not only won't join, 1123 00:54:50,480 --> 00:54:52,440 Speaker 10: we don't support New Zealand being in it. 1124 00:54:52,760 --> 00:54:56,560 Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, while we got you. Is your wealth tax 1125 00:54:56,719 --> 00:54:58,759 Speaker 3: do you think dead? Why did it get voted down 1126 00:54:58,760 --> 00:54:59,280 Speaker 3: at the weekend? 1127 00:55:00,760 --> 00:55:06,200 Speaker 10: Well, the Labor Party voted to continue work on two 1128 00:55:06,280 --> 00:55:09,560 Speaker 10: streams of work. One was around a capital gas tax 1129 00:55:09,640 --> 00:55:11,480 Speaker 10: and one was a wealth tax, so neither have been 1130 00:55:11,520 --> 00:55:13,000 Speaker 10: fully committed to, but neither it did. 1131 00:55:13,239 --> 00:55:15,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, but what did they also vote when it came 1132 00:55:15,960 --> 00:55:18,200 Speaker 3: to progressing the wealth tax over the weekend? They voted 1133 00:55:18,200 --> 00:55:19,399 Speaker 3: it down, right, They. 1134 00:55:20,800 --> 00:55:22,680 Speaker 10: Voted on them exactly the same manner as there was 1135 00:55:22,719 --> 00:55:24,840 Speaker 10: a vote on the capital gangstacks. There were two identical 1136 00:55:25,600 --> 00:55:28,200 Speaker 10: reemants put out. Both were voted down in favor of 1137 00:55:28,200 --> 00:55:33,280 Speaker 10: the Policy Council continued to work for and respected both options. 1138 00:55:34,040 --> 00:55:36,720 Speaker 3: Do you expect the Policy Council to back the CGT 1139 00:55:36,840 --> 00:55:37,759 Speaker 3: ahead of a wealth tax. 1140 00:55:39,120 --> 00:55:41,319 Speaker 10: Well, look, I'm not going to speculate that today. I'm 1141 00:55:41,400 --> 00:55:42,960 Speaker 10: just making clear the process from him. 1142 00:55:43,960 --> 00:55:46,440 Speaker 3: Would you support a stamp duty? And principle, what are 1143 00:55:46,440 --> 00:55:48,200 Speaker 3: the downsides and upsides to a stamp duty? 1144 00:55:49,160 --> 00:55:53,759 Speaker 10: The position of the remnant that was passed that the 1145 00:55:53,760 --> 00:55:56,239 Speaker 10: party was to look at the two options that we've 1146 00:55:56,239 --> 00:55:58,399 Speaker 10: already spoken of and take other things off their gene. 1147 00:55:58,719 --> 00:56:01,040 Speaker 3: Thanks your Tom, We appreciate it.

It is 1154 00:56:19,840 --> 00:56:22,120 Speaker 3: a bit unusual, is it not to have a division 1155 00:56:22,200 --> 00:56:24,960 Speaker 3: like this when it comes to foreign policy Josie, And 1156 00:56:25,040 --> 00:56:27,520 Speaker 3: to have a party who's not in government ruling out 1157 00:56:27,520 --> 00:56:30,520 Speaker 3: something that they initially supported investigating. 1158 00:56:30,840 --> 00:56:31,040 Speaker 7: Yeah. 1159 00:56:31,040 --> 00:56:34,479 Speaker 22: I think it's a case of differentiating on as many 1160 00:56:34,480 --> 00:56:37,080 Speaker 22: things as they can to get cut through. And I 1161 00:56:37,080 --> 00:56:39,040 Speaker 22: think they're right on this. I think David Parker gave 1162 00:56:39,080 --> 00:56:42,840 Speaker 22: a good defense of it there. Look, the Trump election 1163 00:56:42,920 --> 00:56:46,920 Speaker 22: made Aucust really complicated. He's going to do tariff's on us. Anyway, 1164 00:56:47,200 --> 00:56:50,200 Speaker 22: what are we gaining by joining August Pillar two? And 1165 00:56:50,280 --> 00:56:52,000 Speaker 22: I think we do kind of know what it is. 1166 00:56:52,040 --> 00:56:57,480 Speaker 22: It's sharing military know how ie technology like AI drones 1167 00:56:57,520 --> 00:56:59,200 Speaker 22: and so on, which we're kind of doing anyway, we 1168 00:56:59,280 --> 00:57:01,960 Speaker 22: do it through five. And for me, the big thing is, 1169 00:57:02,320 --> 00:57:05,120 Speaker 22: you know, independent foreign policy is probably going to matter 1170 00:57:05,160 --> 00:57:07,520 Speaker 22: to us even more. We're not Australia. We're certainly not 1171 00:57:07,560 --> 00:57:11,640 Speaker 22: the US. We've got a much bigger Pacific profile than Australia, 1172 00:57:11,760 --> 00:57:15,040 Speaker 22: and our kind of center of gravity is really the Pacific, 1173 00:57:15,400 --> 00:57:19,360 Speaker 22: and Pacific nations have been balancing this kind of global 1174 00:57:19,440 --> 00:57:21,760 Speaker 22: tension between China and US for a lot longer than 1175 00:57:21,800 --> 00:57:25,080 Speaker 22: we have. Actually, I mean, they're doing a better job 1176 00:57:25,080 --> 00:57:27,000 Speaker 22: of it in some ways than us, and I think 1177 00:57:27,000 --> 00:57:29,400 Speaker 22: we have to be really careful that we maintain that 1178 00:57:29,840 --> 00:57:32,680 Speaker 22: kind of Pacific identity and that independence. And the other 1179 00:57:32,720 --> 00:57:35,400 Speaker 22: thing is, you know, China isn't really our enemy at 1180 00:57:35,440 --> 00:57:38,000 Speaker 22: the moment. You know, we've got a lot more threats 1181 00:57:38,240 --> 00:57:42,360 Speaker 22: to New Zealand at the moment. We've got, you know, Russia, expanding, 1182 00:57:42,520 --> 00:57:46,160 Speaker 22: expansionist Russia. We've got a dysfunctional un where the veto 1183 00:57:46,440 --> 00:57:50,800 Speaker 22: just basically makes everything kind of hopeless. 1184 00:57:51,000 --> 00:57:51,200 Speaker 6: You know. 1185 00:57:51,240 --> 00:57:53,000 Speaker 22: So we've got to look at the whole range of 1186 00:57:53,080 --> 00:57:55,080 Speaker 22: threats to us and take our own position. 1187 00:57:55,160 --> 00:57:58,120 Speaker 3: I think that's right, Okay, clear, it's always a dangerous 1188 00:57:58,160 --> 00:58:00,480 Speaker 3: game to try and put yourself in in the mind 1189 00:58:00,480 --> 00:58:03,320 Speaker 3: of Donald Trump. But is there a possibility that not 1190 00:58:04,040 --> 00:58:06,919 Speaker 3: joining up to WACAS Pillar two is the difference between 1191 00:58:06,960 --> 00:58:08,360 Speaker 3: New Zealand facing tariffs and not. 1192 00:58:09,040 --> 00:58:12,560 Speaker 23: Well, that may be a factor. But I having listened 1193 00:58:12,600 --> 00:58:15,920 Speaker 23: to David Parker, I'd have to say, I find myself 1194 00:58:16,200 --> 00:58:21,320 Speaker 23: thinking we should be pursuing Aucus two to find out 1195 00:58:21,400 --> 00:58:25,120 Speaker 23: what it could offer. He could not say what might 1196 00:58:25,160 --> 00:58:28,480 Speaker 23: be in it that he so strongly envehemently disagrees with 1197 00:58:28,920 --> 00:58:32,080 Speaker 23: that it's completely off the table. And we are now 1198 00:58:32,360 --> 00:58:34,520 Speaker 23: getting a lot of pressure not just from say the 1199 00:58:34,600 --> 00:58:37,600 Speaker 23: United States, but also Australia to lift our defense done 1200 00:58:37,640 --> 00:58:41,840 Speaker 23: and we've sunk part of a naval capacity. Well, whatever 1201 00:58:42,360 --> 00:58:46,640 Speaker 23: sort of cooperation and assistance we can technically have, I 1202 00:58:46,680 --> 00:58:51,040 Speaker 23: think we need to keep exploring. We're falling very far 1203 00:58:51,120 --> 00:58:53,400 Speaker 23: behind in a whole range of areas, and I think 1204 00:58:54,040 --> 00:58:56,680 Speaker 23: a defense might be one. And I'm not saying we 1205 00:58:56,680 --> 00:59:01,200 Speaker 23: should join Pillar two to try and sort of escape 1206 00:59:01,200 --> 00:59:03,240 Speaker 23: the wroth of Donald Trump on another front. But if 1207 00:59:03,240 --> 00:59:06,920 Speaker 23: it happened to have some positive effect, that's not a 1208 00:59:06,960 --> 00:59:07,560 Speaker 23: bad thing too. 1209 00:59:07,640 --> 00:59:09,920 Speaker 3: Well, it is it is on the on the onus 1210 00:59:10,040 --> 00:59:12,480 Speaker 3: is on the supporters of ORCUST to actually explain what 1211 00:59:12,480 --> 00:59:13,400 Speaker 3: we get out of this, right. 1212 00:59:13,640 --> 00:59:17,240 Speaker 22: But also yeah, it's not yes they have, but also. 1213 00:59:17,520 --> 00:59:18,360 Speaker 3: You think they have that. 1214 00:59:18,640 --> 00:59:22,200 Speaker 22: No, I don't think that we know that. I mean, actually, 1215 00:59:22,360 --> 00:59:25,520 Speaker 22: you know we know that Pillar one was sharing you know, 1216 00:59:25,560 --> 00:59:29,080 Speaker 22: nuclear building, nuclear submarine, nuclear powered submarines. It's not nuclear weapons, 1217 00:59:29,160 --> 00:59:32,959 Speaker 22: nuclear powered submarines, you know, with Australia and the UK 1218 00:59:33,160 --> 00:59:35,720 Speaker 22: and Britain. But I think the thing about Pillar two 1219 00:59:35,800 --> 00:59:37,720 Speaker 22: is we look in our region, the Pacific and also 1220 00:59:37,760 --> 00:59:41,080 Speaker 22: Southeast Asia, where they're you know, doing what's called hedging, right, 1221 00:59:41,120 --> 00:59:44,320 Speaker 22: they're not. They're trading with China. They're looking to get 1222 00:59:44,320 --> 00:59:47,760 Speaker 22: the sort of back the rules based order of that's 1223 00:59:47,840 --> 00:59:50,200 Speaker 22: headed by the US. We've got to do the same thing. 1224 00:59:50,240 --> 00:59:52,120 Speaker 22: We've got to be careful not to sort of shoot 1225 00:59:52,120 --> 00:59:55,640 Speaker 22: ourselves in the foot on trade and ironically China and 1226 00:59:55,720 --> 00:59:58,280 Speaker 22: the US both want to join the TPP or if 1227 00:59:58,320 --> 01:00:03,280 Speaker 22: you scoll it, the CPTPP. The TPP. I just said, yeah, 1228 01:00:03,360 --> 01:00:06,400 Speaker 22: but they're going further apart on security, so they're kind 1229 01:00:06,400 --> 01:00:07,440 Speaker 22: of hedging as well. 1230 01:00:07,600 --> 01:00:07,760 Speaker 6: You know. 1231 01:00:07,840 --> 01:00:10,560 Speaker 22: So I think we have to be very politic about this, 1232 01:00:10,720 --> 01:00:12,760 Speaker 22: and I think the Labour's position is right. 1233 01:00:12,880 --> 01:00:15,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, Josie Bigani clear the law, our huddle this evening. 1234 01:00:15,760 --> 01:00:17,880 Speaker 3: We're back in a couple of minutes. It's fourteen to six. 1235 01:00:19,960 --> 01:00:23,680 Speaker 2: The huddle with New Zealand Southeby's International Realty elevate the 1236 01:00:23,720 --> 01:00:24,720 Speaker 2: marketing of your home. 1237 01:00:24,800 --> 01:00:26,760 Speaker 3: You're back with our huddle this evening, Clear law and 1238 01:00:26,880 --> 01:00:31,080 Speaker 3: Josie Bgany so clear. Joe Biden has pardoned Hunter Biden 1239 01:00:31,160 --> 01:00:33,680 Speaker 3: despite saying a thousand times that he wouldn't do. So 1240 01:00:33,800 --> 01:00:34,320 Speaker 3: what do you think. 1241 01:00:35,120 --> 01:00:38,920 Speaker 23: I think it's completely understandable. But I mean it's another 1242 01:00:39,000 --> 01:00:41,280 Speaker 23: blow to his legacy, you know, which is just going 1243 01:00:41,320 --> 01:00:45,840 Speaker 23: to be seen as as pretty hopeless and just a 1244 01:00:45,880 --> 01:00:49,080 Speaker 23: blip in between two what will be and what was 1245 01:00:49,640 --> 01:00:53,640 Speaker 23: volataile Trump administrations. And I really do sort of fear 1246 01:00:53,680 --> 01:00:56,680 Speaker 23: for the comfort that Trump will take from this, because 1247 01:00:56,840 --> 01:00:59,600 Speaker 23: he now, of course from the Supreme Court has topal immunity, 1248 01:01:00,040 --> 01:01:03,760 Speaker 23: as I presume in fact Biden does now too. But 1249 01:01:03,880 --> 01:01:07,600 Speaker 23: it just means that effectively the families, there's you know, 1250 01:01:07,640 --> 01:01:09,160 Speaker 23: if you're going to get into a tip for Tate, 1251 01:01:09,280 --> 01:01:12,160 Speaker 23: you did this, I did that, then Trump is going 1252 01:01:12,160 --> 01:01:16,400 Speaker 23: to feel very empowered to partner his own family. I mean, 1253 01:01:16,480 --> 01:01:20,480 Speaker 23: pardons are used as part of what's an overall clemency arrangement, 1254 01:01:20,520 --> 01:01:25,080 Speaker 23: where presidents will either commuter sentence or grant pardon, and 1255 01:01:25,120 --> 01:01:28,720 Speaker 23: they used very liberally sometimes. I mean in modern history 1256 01:01:29,160 --> 01:01:34,640 Speaker 23: the two presidents have used them least often were the 1257 01:01:34,640 --> 01:01:39,200 Speaker 23: the two Bushes, George and his and George JR. Obama 1258 01:01:39,280 --> 01:01:40,440 Speaker 23: used them very liberally. 1259 01:01:40,240 --> 01:01:43,160 Speaker 3: Of course. Yeah, it wasn't Bill Clinton when he was 1260 01:01:43,400 --> 01:01:49,160 Speaker 3: like twelve hours before he left office or something something. Yeah, 1261 01:01:49,360 --> 01:01:50,880 Speaker 3: there is a history, is a history. 1262 01:01:50,880 --> 01:01:52,960 Speaker 23: There's a big history of it. The most famous one, 1263 01:01:53,200 --> 01:01:56,600 Speaker 23: of course, was Gerald Ford partnering Nixon in nineteen seventy 1264 01:01:56,600 --> 01:01:57,200 Speaker 23: four over. 1265 01:01:57,040 --> 01:01:58,160 Speaker 3: Watergate, which was different. 1266 01:01:58,360 --> 01:02:00,720 Speaker 23: But you know, this is just like, here's another blow 1267 01:02:00,920 --> 01:02:02,960 Speaker 23: to Biden. It just looks awful, doesn't it. 1268 01:02:02,960 --> 01:02:05,120 Speaker 22: I understand it. As a mother, I mean, tell me 1269 01:02:05,120 --> 01:02:06,640 Speaker 22: who to bribe, Tell me who to sleep with. I'll 1270 01:02:06,640 --> 01:02:10,160 Speaker 22: do anything to certain children, right, but this just looks terrible. 1271 01:02:10,240 --> 01:02:12,800 Speaker 22: I mean even Jesus didn't get a pardon from his dad. 1272 01:02:12,920 --> 01:02:13,120 Speaker 16: You know. 1273 01:02:13,240 --> 01:02:16,360 Speaker 22: It's just you can't just change the rule of law 1274 01:02:16,480 --> 01:02:18,960 Speaker 22: like that. And he's when you campaigned on it. So 1275 01:02:19,080 --> 01:02:22,680 Speaker 22: I definitely think he's campaigned on honesty, integrity, rule of law. 1276 01:02:23,120 --> 01:02:26,920 Speaker 22: I definitely think that those politics behind the onslaught against 1277 01:02:27,000 --> 01:02:29,800 Speaker 22: Hunter Biden, but he did so the politics got him 1278 01:02:29,800 --> 01:02:32,480 Speaker 22: to court. He got to court, he was found guilty 1279 01:02:32,800 --> 01:02:35,680 Speaker 22: by a court that's independent. So either you're saying the 1280 01:02:35,800 --> 01:02:38,479 Speaker 22: justice system is independent or you're saying it's not. He's 1281 01:02:38,480 --> 01:02:40,800 Speaker 22: now lost the high ground. The Democrats have lost the 1282 01:02:40,880 --> 01:02:43,760 Speaker 22: high ground. Trump can not only pardon his own family, 1283 01:02:44,240 --> 01:02:46,320 Speaker 22: he can he can say, well, I'm going to pardon 1284 01:02:46,320 --> 01:02:49,680 Speaker 22: the January, the sixth insurrectionists, I'm going to pardon everybody 1285 01:02:49,680 --> 01:02:52,720 Speaker 22: and anybody in my last administration. And the Democrats now 1286 01:02:52,760 --> 01:02:54,120 Speaker 22: have no high ground. 1287 01:02:53,920 --> 01:02:55,439 Speaker 23: Stars not much highground left. 1288 01:02:55,720 --> 01:02:58,560 Speaker 3: There's not a lot of high ground low ground. Yeah, yeah, 1289 01:02:59,520 --> 01:03:01,400 Speaker 3: and I'm not sure that what aboutism is really going 1290 01:03:01,440 --> 01:03:03,760 Speaker 3: to get us the worst position than already. And when 1291 01:03:03,800 --> 01:03:05,680 Speaker 3: it comes to the US, now, the UK Master Chief 1292 01:03:05,720 --> 01:03:08,480 Speaker 3: Host Greg Wallace is hit back at allegations and proper behavior, 1293 01:03:09,000 --> 01:03:11,480 Speaker 3: blaming them on quote, middle class women of a certain 1294 01:03:11,520 --> 01:03:15,240 Speaker 3: age and not casting any spirit and. 1295 01:03:15,320 --> 01:03:18,160 Speaker 22: A downwardly mobile middle class woman of a certain age. 1296 01:03:18,280 --> 01:03:20,280 Speaker 22: We're much more resilient than that, aren't we, clear? 1297 01:03:21,800 --> 01:03:22,000 Speaker 24: Greg? 1298 01:03:22,120 --> 01:03:22,280 Speaker 21: Oh? 1299 01:03:22,480 --> 01:03:24,520 Speaker 22: Yeah, what the hell is he talking about the idea 1300 01:03:24,560 --> 01:03:27,000 Speaker 22: that we'd be sort of wilting violets. But this is 1301 01:03:27,040 --> 01:03:29,520 Speaker 22: a guy who was wandering around the studio totally naked 1302 01:03:29,560 --> 01:03:31,680 Speaker 22: with the socks on his willy. I mean, that is 1303 01:03:31,760 --> 01:03:32,560 Speaker 22: not good. 1304 01:03:32,360 --> 01:03:36,400 Speaker 3: Behavior in the modern workplace, that sort of thing. 1305 01:03:36,520 --> 01:03:38,680 Speaker 22: I'd be very worried. I wouldn't be offended, I'd be 1306 01:03:38,680 --> 01:03:41,160 Speaker 22: worried for your mental health. But he's just making this 1307 01:03:41,360 --> 01:03:42,040 Speaker 22: so much. 1308 01:03:42,600 --> 01:03:46,640 Speaker 23: Soul and he will lose this job. He will not 1309 01:03:46,640 --> 01:03:47,840 Speaker 23: be employed bra anyone else. 1310 01:03:48,880 --> 01:03:52,280 Speaker 22: Master Chef host is certainly not serving humble pie, is he? 1311 01:03:52,520 --> 01:03:53,200 Speaker 3: No? 1312 01:03:53,480 --> 01:03:54,080 Speaker 23: Absolutely? 1313 01:03:54,120 --> 01:03:54,200 Speaker 13: Not? 1314 01:03:55,040 --> 01:03:57,960 Speaker 3: Very quickly to Papa. You know how they're charging international 1315 01:03:58,000 --> 01:04:02,080 Speaker 3: visitors thirty five bucks a visit. In two months, they've 1316 01:04:02,120 --> 01:04:04,840 Speaker 3: made seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars. Do you reckon 1317 01:04:04,920 --> 01:04:07,480 Speaker 3: the shows that we should actually be charging international visitors 1318 01:04:07,520 --> 01:04:08,240 Speaker 3: a little bit more? 1319 01:04:08,360 --> 01:04:10,600 Speaker 23: I think it's fantastic. I wouldn't charge more. 1320 01:04:10,640 --> 01:04:12,440 Speaker 3: No, no, no, not more for to Papa, but I mean, 1321 01:04:12,480 --> 01:04:14,640 Speaker 3: you know, for visiting New Zealand, like we should, we 1322 01:04:14,680 --> 01:04:15,960 Speaker 3: should be charging for other museums. 1323 01:04:16,040 --> 01:04:16,120 Speaker 21: Right. 1324 01:04:16,200 --> 01:04:18,600 Speaker 23: Well, I think you go into a lot of museums 1325 01:04:18,600 --> 01:04:20,760 Speaker 23: in the world and they're free, but there are a 1326 01:04:20,800 --> 01:04:23,160 Speaker 23: whole bunch of places where you do pay. And I 1327 01:04:23,200 --> 01:04:26,440 Speaker 23: think we just need to actually start looking at all 1328 01:04:26,480 --> 01:04:29,120 Speaker 23: revenue streams. I'd be kind of interested to know what 1329 01:04:29,160 --> 01:04:31,680 Speaker 23: the visitor figures were and what the pushback was from 1330 01:04:31,680 --> 01:04:34,360 Speaker 23: some people. But hey, that seems to me to have 1331 01:04:34,360 --> 01:04:35,800 Speaker 23: been a pretty two months. 1332 01:04:35,880 --> 01:04:37,240 Speaker 3: Yes, very I. 1333 01:04:37,240 --> 01:04:40,280 Speaker 22: Think it's a really bad look to charge tourists more 1334 01:04:40,360 --> 01:04:43,000 Speaker 22: than locals. It just looks like, you know, he's Topapa, 1335 01:04:43,240 --> 01:04:45,760 Speaker 22: where we tell the stories about our nationhood and about 1336 01:04:45,800 --> 01:04:48,040 Speaker 22: who we are. It's like the Treaty House in WAITEITANGI 1337 01:04:48,120 --> 01:04:51,160 Speaker 22: they wanted to charge tourists to come in to see 1338 01:04:51,160 --> 01:04:54,280 Speaker 22: our founding document You imagine that in Philadelphia of you 1339 01:04:54,400 --> 01:04:56,560 Speaker 22: going in to see the founding documents. 1340 01:04:56,440 --> 01:04:57,760 Speaker 3: American in America. 1341 01:04:57,880 --> 01:05:01,720 Speaker 22: Yeah, but you don't it's free. 1342 01:05:02,200 --> 01:05:06,160 Speaker 23: There is no there is no central funding national trust. 1343 01:05:06,280 --> 01:05:08,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's remarkable. Hey, thank you so much. We're going 1344 01:05:08,400 --> 01:05:10,520 Speaker 3: to keep moving, but thank you for your time this morning, 1345 01:05:10,720 --> 01:05:13,400 Speaker 3: this evening, our huddle, this evening on Newstalks, he'd be 1346 01:05:13,480 --> 01:05:16,400 Speaker 3: Cleared Law and Josie Bcganney.

Who will win 1348 01:05:21,120 --> 01:05:24,440 Speaker 2: the battleground states? The latest on the US election, it's 1349 01:05:24,520 --> 01:05:27,880 Speaker 2: Heather duple Cy Alan drive with one New Zealand let's 1350 01:05:27,920 --> 01:05:28,560 Speaker 2: get connected. 1351 01:05:28,680 --> 01:05:32,200 Speaker 1: US Talks B, News Talks B. 1352 01:05:32,280 --> 01:05:34,720 Speaker 3: Thank you so much for your feedback this evening. Jack. 1353 01:05:34,760 --> 01:05:36,840 Speaker 3: I really hope labor will vote for a wealth tax. 1354 01:05:36,880 --> 01:05:39,400 Speaker 3: It will put a final nail and Labour's coffin they'll 1355 01:05:39,400 --> 01:05:42,840 Speaker 3: never return to the government benches again, says John Jack, 1356 01:05:42,840 --> 01:05:45,480 Speaker 3: regarding your comments this evening on the capital gains tax, 1357 01:05:45,480 --> 01:05:47,200 Speaker 3: It's nice to hear someone at News Talks he'd be 1358 01:05:47,320 --> 01:05:50,120 Speaker 3: with a balanced approach to a CGT. There are lots 1359 01:05:50,120 --> 01:05:52,520 Speaker 3: of benefits to the tax, including people investing in more 1360 01:05:52,560 --> 01:05:54,880 Speaker 3: productive parts of the economy. I do think that is 1361 01:05:55,120 --> 01:05:57,840 Speaker 3: worthy of some interest, and it's not just related to 1362 01:05:57,840 --> 01:06:00,520 Speaker 3: a CGT. It's just a when it comes to our 1363 01:06:00,600 --> 01:06:03,600 Speaker 3: tax priorities generally. I mean, for example, would you not 1364 01:06:03,720 --> 01:06:06,520 Speaker 3: think that maybe instead of some of the tax cuts 1365 01:06:06,560 --> 01:06:08,400 Speaker 3: we've had so far, we could look at changes to 1366 01:06:08,480 --> 01:06:10,800 Speaker 3: the corporate tax rate to try and encourage people to 1367 01:06:10,840 --> 01:06:15,120 Speaker 3: invest in more productive assets. Hey, very quickly, just news 1368 01:06:15,200 --> 01:06:19,640 Speaker 3: out of Biosecurity Minister Andrew Hoggard's office this evening.

We're going to have more details 1372 01:06:28,800 --> 01:06:31,560 Speaker 3: for you on that situation in the news very shortly. 1373 01:06:31,640 --> 01:06:34,720 Speaker 3: Right after the six cock news, Finance Minister Nikola Willis 1374 01:06:34,800 --> 01:06:37,720 Speaker 3: will be this with us. Plus we'll talk to Tipapa 1375 01:06:38,600 --> 01:06:41,520 Speaker 3: about the benefits of charging thirty five bucks to every 1376 01:06:41,560 --> 01:06:43,920 Speaker 3: foreign visitor. News is next, though it's almost six o'clock. 1377 01:06:44,000 --> 01:06:46,440 Speaker 3: I'm Jack Tame and this is newstalg z EDB. 1378 01:06:49,960 --> 01:06:54,840 Speaker 2: We have business inside the business hour with Jack Tame 1379 01:06:55,320 --> 01:06:58,480 Speaker 2: and my hr on NEWSTALKSB. 1380 01:07:03,000 --> 01:07:05,400 Speaker 3: New Storks hed vit you with Jack Tayman for Heather. 1381 01:07:05,760 --> 01:07:08,840 Speaker 3: She recovers from what I hope isn't too serious of 1382 01:07:08,880 --> 01:07:12,560 Speaker 3: an illness. Hey, a few weeks ago I had the 1383 01:07:12,560 --> 01:07:15,640 Speaker 3: great fortune of going to Apec in Peru, of all 1384 01:07:15,680 --> 01:07:18,440 Speaker 3: places in Lima, Peru. It was my first time in Peru, 1385 01:07:18,480 --> 01:07:21,560 Speaker 3: and while I was there, I had about eight hours 1386 01:07:21,600 --> 01:07:23,640 Speaker 3: of downtime. So what did I do with my eight 1387 01:07:23,680 --> 01:07:27,000 Speaker 3: hours of downtime? Very simple? I looked for recommendations for 1388 01:07:27,160 --> 01:07:30,600 Speaker 3: museums across the city and I ended up. I ended 1389 01:07:30,680 --> 01:07:33,720 Speaker 3: up going to an erotic pottery museum. It's not every 1390 01:07:33,760 --> 01:07:36,520 Speaker 3: day you do that. Tell you what in the Instagram 1391 01:07:36,720 --> 01:07:39,560 Speaker 3: account for this erotic pottery museum? My goodness, it's really 1392 01:07:39,680 --> 01:07:43,480 Speaker 3: it's got a hard sell, hard being the operative word 1393 01:07:43,520 --> 01:07:47,680 Speaker 3: there anyway, kidding. It cost me twenty bucks, which is 1394 01:07:47,720 --> 01:07:49,400 Speaker 3: more than dinner cost me in Lima. But it was 1395 01:07:49,400 --> 01:07:51,160 Speaker 3: funny because I was traveling. It's not the sort of 1396 01:07:51,160 --> 01:07:52,920 Speaker 3: thing I would usually do, spend twenty bucks going to 1397 01:07:53,000 --> 01:07:55,560 Speaker 3: a pottery museum, especially in erotic pottery museum. But I 1398 01:07:55,600 --> 01:07:57,920 Speaker 3: decided to do it because I was traveling, and I 1399 01:07:57,920 --> 01:08:00,560 Speaker 3: guess to Papa has been vindicated in some specs by 1400 01:08:00,600 --> 01:08:02,800 Speaker 3: doing the same thing. Not that they have erotic pottery, 1401 01:08:03,080 --> 01:08:06,000 Speaker 3: but simply because they are charging international tourists thirty five 1402 01:08:06,080 --> 01:08:09,600 Speaker 3: bucks to visit to Papa and they've made seven hundred 1403 01:08:09,600 --> 01:08:11,480 Speaker 3: and fifty grand in just two months. So we're going 1404 01:08:11,520 --> 01:08:13,680 Speaker 3: to talk to to Papa before seven o'clock this evening 1405 01:08:13,720 --> 01:08:17,120 Speaker 3: about how that's working and whether or not any international 1406 01:08:17,120 --> 01:08:20,160 Speaker 3: tourist who otherwise would be going are deciding that actually 1407 01:08:20,160 --> 01:08:21,920 Speaker 3: thirty five bucks is too steep. They're going to be 1408 01:08:21,920 --> 01:08:24,120 Speaker 3: with us very shortly. Right now, it is eight past six, 1409 01:08:24,120 --> 01:08:26,120 Speaker 3: in time to catch up with Finance Minister Nicola willis 1410 01:08:26,200 --> 01:08:26,920 Speaker 3: you a good evening? 1411 01:08:28,320 --> 01:08:28,599 Speaker 1: And Jack? 1412 01:08:28,680 --> 01:08:30,680 Speaker 3: Did you indulge in the Black Friday sales at all? 1413 01:08:30,760 --> 01:08:31,840 Speaker 3: Was it your cup of tea? 1414 01:08:32,640 --> 01:08:32,880 Speaker 21: No? 1415 01:08:33,120 --> 01:08:35,040 Speaker 19: Not really my kind of thing, but good on those 1416 01:08:35,080 --> 01:08:35,439 Speaker 19: who did. 1417 01:08:35,600 --> 01:08:38,479 Speaker 3: Yeah, so I think the yeah, there's not only much 1418 01:08:38,479 --> 01:08:40,440 Speaker 3: you can read into it. Apparently we had more transactions 1419 01:08:40,439 --> 01:08:42,640 Speaker 3: than last year, but with a slightly lower cost, so 1420 01:08:42,680 --> 01:08:45,000 Speaker 3: it's about even with last year, which I don't know. 1421 01:08:45,320 --> 01:08:46,800 Speaker 3: Can you read anything into that when it comes to 1422 01:08:46,840 --> 01:08:47,839 Speaker 3: our economic progress? 1423 01:08:48,439 --> 01:08:48,799 Speaker 16: Ah? 1424 01:08:48,840 --> 01:08:50,519 Speaker 24: Well, look, I think a lot of people leave this 1425 01:08:51,040 --> 01:08:53,639 Speaker 24: Christmas shopping to a bit later, don't they, And that's 1426 01:08:53,680 --> 01:08:57,320 Speaker 24: when we all part with our precious dollars. So people 1427 01:08:57,320 --> 01:08:59,040 Speaker 24: will be gearing up for that, and I know many 1428 01:08:59,080 --> 01:09:01,680 Speaker 24: New Zealanders will share my view that if you can 1429 01:09:01,800 --> 01:09:03,920 Speaker 24: spend it at a local business on a local product. 1430 01:09:03,960 --> 01:09:08,360 Speaker 3: You should very good now. Interest rates the ocr has 1431 01:09:09,160 --> 01:09:11,800 Speaker 3: drop fifty basis points, but we haven't seen a whole 1432 01:09:11,800 --> 01:09:13,680 Speaker 3: lot of movement from the banks when it comes to 1433 01:09:13,960 --> 01:09:16,960 Speaker 3: fixed term rates over the last five or six days. 1434 01:09:17,120 --> 01:09:18,320 Speaker 3: Are you surprised by that at all? 1435 01:09:19,240 --> 01:09:21,400 Speaker 24: Well, look, banks always have a choice about how much 1436 01:09:21,439 --> 01:09:24,120 Speaker 24: they pass on, and I'd always rather see it in 1437 01:09:24,160 --> 01:09:27,960 Speaker 24: Kiwi's pockets than padding the bottom line of Australian banks. 1438 01:09:28,840 --> 01:09:30,640 Speaker 24: But of course you know many of them will have 1439 01:09:30,720 --> 01:09:34,400 Speaker 24: priced it in already. This year you have seen significant 1440 01:09:34,479 --> 01:09:36,960 Speaker 24: drops across the board. There was a peak for one 1441 01:09:37,040 --> 01:09:39,720 Speaker 24: year fixed term rates of seven point three four four 1442 01:09:39,720 --> 01:09:44,479 Speaker 24: percent in January. That's now down to five point nine 1443 01:09:44,600 --> 01:09:48,439 Speaker 24: one four percent at the rates vary. I see that 1444 01:09:48,479 --> 01:09:51,240 Speaker 24: there are some banks advertising five point four nine for 1445 01:09:51,280 --> 01:09:54,320 Speaker 24: a two year fix. So in all of these things, 1446 01:09:54,360 --> 01:09:58,519 Speaker 24: I shouldn't give advice, but always shop around. Refixing your 1447 01:09:58,520 --> 01:10:01,800 Speaker 24: mortgage makes sure you get the best rate possible, because 1448 01:10:01,840 --> 01:10:03,839 Speaker 24: that is real money into your bank account. 1449 01:10:04,040 --> 01:10:07,320 Speaker 3: What did you think of Labour's call regarding Orcus. 1450 01:10:08,720 --> 01:10:13,080 Speaker 24: I was surprised by that because it seemed premature to me. 1451 01:10:13,360 --> 01:10:14,320 Speaker 19: Let's remember that. 1452 01:10:14,320 --> 01:10:18,360 Speaker 24: It was Labor who started the discussions about Pillar two 1453 01:10:18,560 --> 01:10:22,800 Speaker 24: of UCUS back in twenty twenty one. No one's ever 1454 01:10:22,840 --> 01:10:26,200 Speaker 24: talked about joining the first pillar, but exploring how we 1455 01:10:26,240 --> 01:10:29,720 Speaker 24: could cooperate on technology was something labor kicked off, and 1456 01:10:29,960 --> 01:10:33,160 Speaker 24: I was surprised that while those discussions are still ongoing, 1457 01:10:33,160 --> 01:10:34,760 Speaker 24: they would come to a view. And what it said 1458 01:10:34,800 --> 01:10:38,400 Speaker 24: to me is, rather than taking a cool, calm view 1459 01:10:38,520 --> 01:10:42,400 Speaker 24: of New Zealand's national interests, Chris Hopkins is putting the 1460 01:10:42,520 --> 01:10:44,840 Speaker 24: views of his labor activists first. I think he's a 1461 01:10:44,880 --> 01:10:45,719 Speaker 24: leader under pressure. 1462 01:10:47,360 --> 01:10:49,840 Speaker 3: What would we actually get out of joining Pillar two? 1463 01:10:49,920 --> 01:10:52,680 Speaker 3: Do you think that case has been sufficiently made? 1464 01:10:53,320 --> 01:10:55,880 Speaker 24: Well, that's what we're continuing to explore, Jack, which is 1465 01:10:55,920 --> 01:11:00,439 Speaker 24: exactly what you would expect us to do, because it's 1466 01:11:00,479 --> 01:11:03,120 Speaker 24: too soon to say at this stage. And what the 1467 01:11:03,160 --> 01:11:06,160 Speaker 24: Foreign Minister and the Prime Minister have been doing is 1468 01:11:06,240 --> 01:11:09,480 Speaker 24: working with Australia in the UK and US to understand 1469 01:11:09,920 --> 01:11:12,160 Speaker 24: how we could work with them in it and whether 1470 01:11:12,200 --> 01:11:15,040 Speaker 24: there would be advantages to New Zealand. It's about technology 1471 01:11:15,360 --> 01:11:18,880 Speaker 24: and it's about maintaining security for New Zealand and what 1472 01:11:19,000 --> 01:11:21,160 Speaker 24: is an increasingly contested region of the world. 1473 01:11:22,000 --> 01:11:24,600 Speaker 3: So David Parker said to us before six o'clock this 1474 01:11:24,680 --> 01:11:28,160 Speaker 3: evening that increasingly it's become obvious that ORCUS is simply 1475 01:11:29,439 --> 01:11:32,160 Speaker 3: an effort to contain China. Is he right? 1476 01:11:33,640 --> 01:11:36,960 Speaker 24: Well, I don't see it that way. These are cooperation. 1477 01:11:37,600 --> 01:11:42,160 Speaker 24: This is a cooperation agreement between three countries who are 1478 01:11:42,200 --> 01:11:45,519 Speaker 24: looking to preserve security in the world. As I say, 1479 01:11:45,560 --> 01:11:48,720 Speaker 24: it's a process that Labor began back in twenty twenty one, 1480 01:11:49,000 --> 01:11:51,680 Speaker 24: which we've continued, and we are doing so with New 1481 01:11:51,800 --> 01:11:53,559 Speaker 24: Zealand's best interests first and. 1482 01:11:53,520 --> 01:11:54,639 Speaker 19: Foremost in our minds. 1483 01:11:54,680 --> 01:11:56,640 Speaker 24: And I think it's the right thing to do to 1484 01:11:56,720 --> 01:12:00,559 Speaker 24: let that process run through into so prematurely come to 1485 01:12:00,600 --> 01:12:03,519 Speaker 24: a decision based on a remit at a Labor Party 1486 01:12:03,560 --> 01:12:06,800 Speaker 24: conference that just suggests that Labor are putting politics ahead 1487 01:12:06,800 --> 01:12:07,639 Speaker 24: of the national interest. 1488 01:12:07,960 --> 01:12:10,920 Speaker 3: I was speaking to a security analyst in DC a 1489 01:12:10,960 --> 01:12:14,360 Speaker 3: month or so ago, and we were talking about UCUS 1490 01:12:14,439 --> 01:12:17,400 Speaker 3: and the implications for the Pacific and he said that 1491 01:12:17,439 --> 01:12:20,599 Speaker 3: from his perspective, the thing that was being missed in 1492 01:12:20,680 --> 01:12:23,439 Speaker 3: some of the ORCUST discourse so far was that there 1493 01:12:23,479 --> 01:12:26,799 Speaker 3: would be really significant economic benefits potentially for New Zealand, 1494 01:12:26,840 --> 01:12:29,040 Speaker 3: that some of this technology could be used by private 1495 01:12:29,080 --> 01:12:33,960 Speaker 3: industry to actually benefit our economy. So when will New 1496 01:12:34,080 --> 01:12:36,840 Speaker 3: Zealanders have a really good idea of what Pillar two 1497 01:12:36,840 --> 01:12:39,920 Speaker 3: would actually entail. It seems to me that's absolutely critical. 1498 01:12:40,560 --> 01:12:42,559 Speaker 24: Yeah, well, look, I'm sure we will in the coming months, 1499 01:12:42,600 --> 01:12:45,439 Speaker 24: and that is those are conversations that the Defence Minister, 1500 01:12:45,479 --> 01:12:47,640 Speaker 24: the Minister of fran I here's the Prime Minister. 1501 01:12:47,439 --> 01:12:49,880 Speaker 19: Are regularly engaged in. And you're right. 1502 01:12:49,920 --> 01:12:54,200 Speaker 24: Look, our security relationships go to not just our safety 1503 01:12:54,240 --> 01:12:57,200 Speaker 24: in the world and our ability to protect the values 1504 01:12:57,240 --> 01:13:00,680 Speaker 24: that we stand for, but also of course evocantly, they 1505 01:13:00,720 --> 01:13:05,120 Speaker 24: do impact training relationships, They do impact who our businesses 1506 01:13:05,160 --> 01:13:08,120 Speaker 24: operate with and on what basis, And so we need 1507 01:13:08,160 --> 01:13:10,719 Speaker 24: to weigh up all of that and as I say, 1508 01:13:11,200 --> 01:13:13,120 Speaker 24: we think it would be wrong to have a knee 1509 01:13:13,200 --> 01:13:15,519 Speaker 24: jerk reaction at this early interval. We need to assess 1510 01:13:15,560 --> 01:13:19,000 Speaker 24: the information and weigh it up against what's best for kiwis. 1511 01:13:18,840 --> 01:13:21,679 Speaker 3: Would you consider underwriting the risk of fossil fuel exploration 1512 01:13:21,880 --> 01:13:24,200 Speaker 3: like the oil and gas industry ask you to in July. 1513 01:13:25,360 --> 01:13:29,320 Speaker 24: Well, I've actually recused myself from decision making on that matter, 1514 01:13:30,000 --> 01:13:33,000 Speaker 24: and that is a matter that I have delegated to 1515 01:13:33,240 --> 01:13:35,920 Speaker 24: the Associate Minister for Finance, Chris Bishop. 1516 01:13:36,000 --> 01:13:37,519 Speaker 19: And obviously the Cabinet as a whole. 1517 01:13:37,640 --> 01:13:40,720 Speaker 3: Can we ask why, Yes. 1518 01:13:40,479 --> 01:13:43,759 Speaker 24: That's because I'm complying with the Cabinet Manual in terms 1519 01:13:43,760 --> 01:13:46,719 Speaker 24: of how we manage any perceived conflicts and interest. 1520 01:13:47,160 --> 01:13:50,080 Speaker 3: Right, okay, what is the perceived conflict of interest there? 1521 01:13:50,720 --> 01:13:52,000 Speaker 19: Well, per the Cabinet Manual. 1522 01:13:52,320 --> 01:13:54,519 Speaker 24: I'm not going to disclose or go into the detail 1523 01:13:54,560 --> 01:13:56,400 Speaker 24: of that so much as to say that New Zealanders 1524 01:13:56,439 --> 01:13:59,640 Speaker 24: can be assured that I have made the decision that 1525 01:13:59,640 --> 01:14:02,680 Speaker 24: I should recuse myself from that decision so that I 1526 01:14:02,680 --> 01:14:06,840 Speaker 24: can be free from any accusations of bus. I always 1527 01:14:06,840 --> 01:14:10,479 Speaker 24: put New Zealand's interests first, and if that means recusing 1528 01:14:10,479 --> 01:14:12,559 Speaker 24: myself in some matters, then I will. 1529 01:14:13,080 --> 01:14:15,920 Speaker 3: Is the government's investment one hundred and fifteen million bucks 1530 01:14:15,960 --> 01:14:17,800 Speaker 3: into sold the zero? Is that gone? Pease? 1531 01:14:18,880 --> 01:14:21,760 Speaker 19: Yeah? Look, this is the New Zealand Green Investment Fund. 1532 01:14:21,920 --> 01:14:24,559 Speaker 24: Which was started by the previous government and which was 1533 01:14:25,360 --> 01:14:29,880 Speaker 24: intentionally set out pretty independent of ministers in its decision making. 1534 01:14:30,000 --> 01:14:32,519 Speaker 24: So they've told me they made one hundred and forty 1535 01:14:32,520 --> 01:14:35,200 Speaker 24: five million dollar capital commitment and that to date one 1536 01:14:35,280 --> 01:14:39,280 Speaker 24: hundred and fifteen million has been drawn down in subordinated lending. 1537 01:14:39,800 --> 01:14:41,720 Speaker 19: What they are now trying. 1538 01:14:41,400 --> 01:14:44,240 Speaker 24: To do is work out how much is at risk, 1539 01:14:44,320 --> 01:14:47,400 Speaker 24: and they tell me that they first need to understand 1540 01:14:47,439 --> 01:14:50,920 Speaker 24: the advice from the legal and insolvency advisors. It's really 1541 01:14:50,960 --> 01:14:54,880 Speaker 24: important to me. One, I'm really concerned that everyone who's 1542 01:14:54,880 --> 01:14:58,040 Speaker 24: lost their job here at a terrible time, just before Christmas. 1543 01:14:58,360 --> 01:14:59,240 Speaker 19: That's really rough. 1544 01:14:59,360 --> 01:15:01,479 Speaker 24: So I want to un stand what has gone on. 1545 01:15:02,280 --> 01:15:04,720 Speaker 24: And the second thing I want to understand is are 1546 01:15:04,800 --> 01:15:07,680 Speaker 24: all steps being taken to protect tax payers money? And 1547 01:15:07,880 --> 01:15:10,720 Speaker 24: was this a prudent investment to have made. So I 1548 01:15:10,800 --> 01:15:14,320 Speaker 24: will be meeting with the New Zealand Green Investment Fund 1549 01:15:14,680 --> 01:15:16,960 Speaker 24: later this week to ask those questions, as you would 1550 01:15:17,000 --> 01:15:17,680 Speaker 24: expect me to do. 1551 01:15:18,439 --> 01:15:21,880 Speaker 3: Your surplus definitely delayed, right, No, I haven't heard anyone 1552 01:15:21,920 --> 01:15:24,479 Speaker 3: saying it's going to be saying at twenty seven twenty eight. 1553 01:15:24,520 --> 01:15:26,160 Speaker 3: We're looking at twenty eight twenty nine minimum. 1554 01:15:26,240 --> 01:15:26,400 Speaker 21: Right. 1555 01:15:27,040 --> 01:15:29,640 Speaker 24: Well, I make an announced about the forecasts on the 1556 01:15:29,640 --> 01:15:32,320 Speaker 24: seventeenth of December and that's when I will share them 1557 01:15:32,360 --> 01:15:33,679 Speaker 24: with the New Zealand is Can. 1558 01:15:33,560 --> 01:15:35,120 Speaker 3: You tell us when you make a decision on the 1559 01:15:35,160 --> 01:15:37,880 Speaker 3: inter islander replacement or the future of the replacement theory 1560 01:15:37,920 --> 01:15:38,200 Speaker 3: as well? 1561 01:15:38,960 --> 01:15:41,280 Speaker 24: Not long to wait Jack will be coming out with 1562 01:15:41,360 --> 01:15:46,160 Speaker 24: our plans for safe, reliable ferry crossings into the future 1563 01:15:46,200 --> 01:15:47,280 Speaker 24: in the coming weeks. 1564 01:15:47,680 --> 01:15:50,320 Speaker 3: Thank you for your time.

Let's take a little 1577 01:16:23,320 --> 01:16:24,680 Speaker 3: bit of a look at the markets and are we 1578 01:16:24,760 --> 01:16:29,280 Speaker 3: at maximum Trump government policy uncertainty for the capital markets. 1579 01:16:29,280 --> 01:16:32,320 Speaker 3: How have the capital markets reacted to recent US policy announcements. 1580 01:16:32,640 --> 01:16:35,920 Speaker 4: Well, I think the quick quick stadments. We're not sure, 1581 01:16:35,960 --> 01:16:37,680 Speaker 4: you know, we haven't seen everything that could come down 1582 01:16:37,720 --> 01:16:39,719 Speaker 4: the line. But what we're seeing is, you know, President 1583 01:16:39,880 --> 01:16:43,680 Speaker 4: elect Trump has policy announced. They' certainly causing some choppiness 1584 01:16:43,680 --> 01:16:46,559 Speaker 4: in capital markets, but the trend has actually been more 1585 01:16:46,560 --> 01:16:48,920 Speaker 4: positive than the headlines. We actually saw the US she market, 1586 01:16:48,920 --> 01:16:51,680 Speaker 4: for example, up just under six percent of November. And 1587 01:16:51,720 --> 01:16:53,120 Speaker 4: one of the things that happened in the later in 1588 01:16:53,160 --> 01:16:55,679 Speaker 4: the month was mister Trump picked a guy called Scott 1589 01:16:55,680 --> 01:16:58,360 Speaker 4: percent to be Treasury Secretary, and he was taken as 1590 01:16:58,400 --> 01:17:01,080 Speaker 4: being a sort of as in the choice that might 1591 01:17:01,120 --> 01:17:05,240 Speaker 4: could stabilize markets and be a little more considered on 1592 01:17:05,360 --> 01:17:07,599 Speaker 4: terms of tariffs and tax cuts. He actually saw long 1593 01:17:07,680 --> 01:17:08,320 Speaker 4: term bond. 1594 01:17:08,160 --> 01:17:09,840 Speaker 1: Yards full sheer marka go up. 1595 01:17:10,360 --> 01:17:12,479 Speaker 4: But then of course mister Trump doubled down with his 1596 01:17:12,600 --> 01:17:16,000 Speaker 4: discussion about putting tariffs additional terrorists in China, which we 1597 01:17:16,040 --> 01:17:18,720 Speaker 4: had already thought about, but then slipping out of twenty 1598 01:17:18,800 --> 01:17:21,479 Speaker 4: five percent tariffs on Canada and Mexico, and that really 1599 01:17:21,840 --> 01:17:25,479 Speaker 4: got people excited. And obviously he's targeting migrants and legal 1600 01:17:25,520 --> 01:17:30,240 Speaker 4: drugs came across the borders. That that push to add 1601 01:17:30,280 --> 01:17:34,000 Speaker 4: tariffs on to Canada and Mexico has implications for supply chains, 1602 01:17:34,280 --> 01:17:36,680 Speaker 4: even for companies like Fisher and pip Bolca that manufacture 1603 01:17:36,680 --> 01:17:39,640 Speaker 4: out of Mexico. So yeah, it's we're in for a 1604 01:17:39,640 --> 01:17:42,880 Speaker 4: few more weeks of policy announcements that could surprise investors. 1605 01:17:43,400 --> 01:17:46,479 Speaker 4: A good example is, you know, whether Robert IF Kennedy 1606 01:17:46,520 --> 01:17:50,960 Speaker 4: Junior gets confirmed as the Department of Health and Human Services, 1607 01:17:51,479 --> 01:17:54,200 Speaker 4: and that would cause a little bit of uncertainty for investors. 1608 01:17:54,439 --> 01:17:56,200 Speaker 4: I think probably that we've got to keep watching our 1609 01:17:56,479 --> 01:17:58,960 Speaker 4: Trump media Truths social media platform to find out what 1610 01:17:59,040 --> 01:17:59,960 Speaker 4: mister Trump's. 1611 01:17:59,600 --> 01:17:59,960 Speaker 5: Going to think. 1612 01:18:00,439 --> 01:18:03,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, back home, Jane, are you seeing signs that the 1613 01:18:03,160 --> 01:18:07,400 Speaker 3: New Zealand economy might just be reawakening from its slumber 1614 01:18:07,439 --> 01:18:10,960 Speaker 3: a recent Reserve bank rate cuts driving more consumer and 1615 01:18:10,960 --> 01:18:11,719 Speaker 3: business confidence. 1616 01:18:12,400 --> 01:18:13,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, look, I think you know it's a good point 1617 01:18:13,960 --> 01:18:16,400 Speaker 4: you raised, Jack. We have sort of weathered one of 1618 01:18:16,439 --> 01:18:20,200 Speaker 4: the tougher central bank interest rate increased cycles globally when 1619 01:18:20,200 --> 01:18:23,160 Speaker 4: we look around the world, we really took a bitter medicine. 1620 01:18:24,120 --> 01:18:27,400 Speaker 4: But more recently we've seen business and consumer confidence bounced 1621 01:18:27,400 --> 01:18:30,479 Speaker 4: back in the last few weeks. That is certainly Reserve 1622 01:18:30,560 --> 01:18:33,240 Speaker 4: bank and cutting official rates that reduces the interest costs 1623 01:18:33,280 --> 01:18:35,360 Speaker 4: for borrowers, But there might be a couple of other 1624 01:18:35,360 --> 01:18:37,080 Speaker 4: factors giving us a bit of a boost as well. 1625 01:18:37,479 --> 01:18:42,439 Speaker 4: You know, diairy pretty solid dairy season, an unusual combination 1626 01:18:42,479 --> 01:18:45,280 Speaker 4: of higher volume production and good firm pricing. And yes, 1627 01:18:45,840 --> 01:18:47,479 Speaker 4: the dairy farmers out there will be telling me, yes, 1628 01:18:47,560 --> 01:18:50,200 Speaker 4: the cost of producing a gone up, but it's still 1629 01:18:50,200 --> 01:18:53,679 Speaker 4: a benefit and that may trickle down. We are seeing 1630 01:18:53,720 --> 01:18:56,680 Speaker 4: some signs of recovery in China's economic activity. It's not 1631 01:18:56,880 --> 01:18:59,720 Speaker 4: huge yet, but even over the weekend we saw these 1632 01:18:59,800 --> 01:19:03,120 Speaker 4: lead It indicates there's purchasing manager and this is they 1633 01:19:03,120 --> 01:19:06,640 Speaker 4: were up above fifty, which it suggests the economies at 1634 01:19:06,720 --> 01:19:10,440 Speaker 4: least expanding again after some of the stimulus that's announced. 1635 01:19:10,960 --> 01:19:12,639 Speaker 4: And then finally we've had a bit of a next 1636 01:19:12,680 --> 01:19:16,200 Speaker 4: lot of data on construction activity in New Zealand. We 1637 01:19:16,240 --> 01:19:20,120 Speaker 4: saw October building permits down five point two percent of 1638 01:19:20,160 --> 01:19:22,719 Speaker 4: the month, down to almost sixteen percent for the twelve 1639 01:19:22,760 --> 01:19:25,680 Speaker 4: months of October to thirty two thousand starts here in 1640 01:19:25,720 --> 01:19:28,680 Speaker 4: New Zealand of homes. But against that, we've also seen 1641 01:19:28,720 --> 01:19:31,800 Speaker 4: a Reserve Bank US how marge landing starting to pick up, 1642 01:19:31,920 --> 01:19:34,080 Speaker 4: which you saw a thirty percent increase in October on 1643 01:19:34,160 --> 01:19:37,040 Speaker 4: the same month in twenty twenty three where investors actually 1644 01:19:37,040 --> 01:19:40,080 Speaker 4: shown a bit of spy. So it's mixed, but we 1645 01:19:40,160 --> 01:19:43,559 Speaker 4: are seeing the some green shoots coming through. And now 1646 01:19:43,640 --> 01:19:47,200 Speaker 4: Sharmaker here not as exciting as the US market was 1647 01:19:47,479 --> 01:19:50,559 Speaker 4: actually up three point four percent over the month of November, 1648 01:19:50,640 --> 01:19:52,200 Speaker 4: so the market looks forward. 1649 01:19:52,320 --> 01:19:54,800 Speaker 3: Now there's so what announcements are you keeping an eye 1650 01:19:54,840 --> 01:19:55,360 Speaker 3: on this week? 1651 01:19:55,920 --> 01:19:58,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, look, it's going to be another week where we 1652 01:19:58,120 --> 01:20:00,599 Speaker 4: watch what happens to the US data, particularly job opening 1653 01:20:00,640 --> 01:20:03,080 Speaker 4: data out tomorrow and on Friday. This this is called 1654 01:20:03,080 --> 01:20:05,200 Speaker 4: the payroll data, and this is all about getting some 1655 01:20:05,280 --> 01:20:08,559 Speaker 4: medications for what the US Federal Reserve, which is the 1656 01:20:08,640 --> 01:20:12,120 Speaker 4: US Central Bank, might do with official rates on the 1657 01:20:12,120 --> 01:20:15,400 Speaker 4: adeenth of December, and the market sort of unwound expectations 1658 01:20:15,439 --> 01:20:18,160 Speaker 4: of big cuts. Is only about twenty or point two 1659 01:20:18,200 --> 01:20:21,080 Speaker 4: of a percent cut in priced in now, so that'll 1660 01:20:21,120 --> 01:20:24,400 Speaker 4: be interesting. Wednesday, We've got secret you can look data 1661 01:20:24,439 --> 01:20:28,639 Speaker 4: out of Australia and China, obviously two key trade partners 1662 01:20:28,680 --> 01:20:31,240 Speaker 4: for the New Zealand. We've also got some company years, 1663 01:20:31,280 --> 01:20:35,280 Speaker 4: similarly the dairy producer, which is seen a little bit 1664 01:20:35,320 --> 01:20:38,080 Speaker 4: of financial pressure recently then due to report to the 1665 01:20:38,120 --> 01:20:39,960 Speaker 4: annual share to meet on Wednesday.

Friday we wrap up with doesn't sound 1669 01:20:49,479 --> 01:20:52,120 Speaker 4: very exciting, but it's actually quite important. There is the 1670 01:20:52,479 --> 01:20:56,160 Speaker 4: Australian SMPA six two hundred index, which is the main 1671 01:20:56,200 --> 01:20:59,080 Speaker 4: benchmark Australian investors used to decide what she is to 1672 01:20:59,160 --> 01:21:02,160 Speaker 4: enlist them. And there's some suggestion that Flitcher Building has 1673 01:21:02,160 --> 01:21:04,840 Speaker 4: spark could be removed from that, which makes you see 1674 01:21:04,880 --> 01:21:07,600 Speaker 4: some more selling than those two stocks from Australian investors. 1675 01:21:08,000 --> 01:21:09,320 Speaker 4: So yeah, busy week. 1676 01:21:09,200 --> 01:21:11,599 Speaker 3: Jack, Yeah, very good. Hey, thanks Shane, appreciate it. Shane 1677 01:21:11,680 --> 01:21:14,120 Speaker 3: Solid there from Harbor Asset Management. Right now it's twenty 1678 01:21:14,160 --> 01:21:15,080 Speaker 3: three pars six. 1679 01:21:16,280 --> 01:21:18,840 Speaker 1: Croaching the numbers and getting the results. 1680 01:21:18,960 --> 01:21:23,040 Speaker 2: It's Jack team with the Business Hour thanks to my HR, 1681 01:21:23,320 --> 01:21:27,080 Speaker 2: the HR solution for busy Smy's on News Talks FB. 1682 01:21:27,360 --> 01:21:30,160 Speaker 3: And in the last few minutes's got new numbers out of 1683 01:21:30,200 --> 01:21:33,439 Speaker 3: the Post and fresh Water Strategies which is a big 1684 01:21:33,479 --> 01:21:37,280 Speaker 3: international polling company. So new polling data and it's not 1685 01:21:37,600 --> 01:21:41,160 Speaker 3: great news for Christopher Luxon. So at the moment, according 1686 01:21:41,200 --> 01:21:44,400 Speaker 3: to the latest poll, Nationals at thirty four percent, down 1687 01:21:44,520 --> 01:21:47,200 Speaker 3: four percentage points since last year. Labour's at thirty one, 1688 01:21:47,240 --> 01:21:50,559 Speaker 3: the Greens at thirteen, up one, Act at eight, down one, 1689 01:21:50,680 --> 01:21:53,040 Speaker 3: New Zealand first at six to Party Maldi at four. 1690 01:21:53,160 --> 01:21:55,200 Speaker 3: What's really interesting is to look at the preferred prime 1691 01:21:55,200 --> 01:21:57,680 Speaker 3: minister numbers right now. So Christopher Luxen is sitting at 1692 01:21:57,720 --> 01:22:01,320 Speaker 3: forty one percent, Christopher hip Chris Hipkins sitting at forty 1693 01:22:01,360 --> 01:22:04,360 Speaker 3: two percent. So if you compare that to twenty twenty three, 1694 01:22:05,080 --> 01:22:07,519 Speaker 3: in the same poles numbers in twenty twenty three, Christopher 1695 01:22:07,560 --> 01:22:10,080 Speaker 3: Luxan is down to Chris Hipkins is down three. But 1696 01:22:10,200 --> 01:22:12,439 Speaker 3: it's surprising that you see chriss Hipkins that high. I 1697 01:22:12,479 --> 01:22:15,400 Speaker 3: think not totally convinced by those numbers. You know, sometimes 1698 01:22:15,400 --> 01:22:16,880 Speaker 3: you get a pole, and I mean all poles are 1699 01:22:16,920 --> 01:22:18,360 Speaker 3: just a point in time, and I'm a little bit 1700 01:22:18,360 --> 01:22:20,960 Speaker 3: skeptical about poles, to be honest at the best of times. 1701 01:22:20,960 --> 01:22:25,320 Speaker 3: That doesn't feel quite right to me. Anyway, I'm sure 1702 01:22:25,520 --> 01:22:28,240 Speaker 3: Labor will be celebrating that, taking any good news they 1703 01:22:28,240 --> 01:22:30,720 Speaker 3: can get. At the moment, after six point thirty on 1704 01:22:30,760 --> 01:22:32,400 Speaker 3: News doalks ZEDB, We're going to take you to the 1705 01:22:32,479 --> 01:22:34,519 Speaker 3: UK and we will take you to the coolest little 1706 01:22:34,560 --> 01:22:37,080 Speaker 3: capital where, of course to Papa is now charging thirty 1707 01:22:37,080 --> 01:22:39,519 Speaker 3: five bucks a pop for international visitors who want to 1708 01:22:39,600 --> 01:22:42,400 Speaker 3: visit our national Museum.

Twenty 1720 01:23:33,000 --> 01:23:35,280 Speaker 3: bucks feels pretty steep here. To be honest, I don't 1721 01:23:35,280 --> 01:23:37,320 Speaker 3: know what the going rate is for your average erotic 1722 01:23:37,439 --> 01:23:41,479 Speaker 3: pottery museum. I attended erotic pottery museum. It cost about 1723 01:23:41,520 --> 01:23:43,200 Speaker 3: twenty bucks. It was one of the most expensive things 1724 01:23:43,240 --> 01:23:46,240 Speaker 3: that I did in my few days while in Peru 1725 01:23:46,400 --> 01:23:48,960 Speaker 3: covering APEC this year. It was well worth it, in 1726 01:23:49,000 --> 01:23:51,519 Speaker 3: my opinion, it was well worth it. You weren't supposed 1727 01:23:51,560 --> 01:23:53,880 Speaker 3: to take many photographs, but I did take a couple 1728 01:23:53,960 --> 01:23:56,160 Speaker 3: and they're going to be you know photos that I 1729 01:23:56,240 --> 01:23:58,000 Speaker 3: cherished for the rest of my life, memories that I 1730 01:23:58,080 --> 01:23:59,960 Speaker 3: cherished for the rest of my life. I did manage 1731 01:23:59,960 --> 01:24:02,360 Speaker 3: to convince a few other journos to come with me, 1732 01:24:02,600 --> 01:24:06,760 Speaker 3: and I think, to be totally fair, not all of 1733 01:24:06,800 --> 01:24:11,120 Speaker 3: them were as satisfied its spending twenty dollars on an 1734 01:24:11,120 --> 01:24:13,439 Speaker 3: erotic pottery museum. Not all of them thought it was 1735 01:24:13,479 --> 01:24:15,600 Speaker 3: a great spend. All of them thought it was a 1736 01:24:15,720 --> 01:24:19,280 Speaker 3: very memorable experience. The reason we are discussing this, of course, 1737 01:24:19,720 --> 01:24:22,439 Speaker 3: is that that wasn't the only museum around that's charging 1738 01:24:22,479 --> 01:24:24,720 Speaker 3: foreigners for a bit of a visit to Papa might 1739 01:24:24,760 --> 01:24:26,600 Speaker 3: be showing the rest of the country just how to 1740 01:24:26,680 --> 01:24:29,960 Speaker 3: generate some extra income. It's now been two months since 1741 01:24:30,000 --> 01:24:33,360 Speaker 3: the National Museum started charging overseas visitors thirty five dollars 1742 01:24:33,400 --> 01:24:36,960 Speaker 3: per visit, and it has made seven hundred and fifty 1743 01:24:37,280 --> 01:24:40,040 Speaker 3: thousand dollars during that time, and we're only now are 1744 01:24:40,080 --> 01:24:43,000 Speaker 3: just coming into the busy season. Kate camp is tip 1745 01:24:43,040 --> 01:24:45,679 Speaker 3: up as spokesperson and she's with us this evening. Kelder, 1746 01:24:45,720 --> 01:24:47,360 Speaker 3: Good evening, Keilda. 1747 01:24:47,400 --> 01:24:49,879 Speaker 21: I'm not sure if I can compete with the Peruvian 1748 01:24:49,920 --> 01:24:50,679 Speaker 21: erotic pottery. 1749 01:24:51,240 --> 01:24:54,439 Speaker 3: I would do my best look. You know, Tapapa has 1750 01:24:54,479 --> 01:24:56,759 Speaker 3: other attractions. You know, you just got to play your strengths, 1751 01:24:56,800 --> 01:24:59,599 Speaker 3: and apparently that's what the strengths were in that part 1752 01:24:59,640 --> 01:25:01,600 Speaker 3: of the world. It was it was I've been to 1753 01:25:01,600 --> 01:25:03,240 Speaker 3: a lot of museums in my time, as I'm sure 1754 01:25:03,280 --> 01:25:05,280 Speaker 3: you have, Kate, but it was it was certainly one 1755 01:25:05,320 --> 01:25:08,000 Speaker 3: to remember. It was, yeah, we don't need to get 1756 01:25:08,000 --> 01:25:10,360 Speaker 3: into too much to do. It was surprisingly explicit if 1757 01:25:10,360 --> 01:25:12,840 Speaker 3: I'm perfect, Well. 1758 01:25:12,720 --> 01:25:14,080 Speaker 21: You put that on your trip advisory. 1759 01:25:14,200 --> 01:25:17,679 Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly. Yeah. I was like, wow, they've really okay, yeah, right, 1760 01:25:17,720 --> 01:25:20,719 Speaker 3: they're okay, yep. The indigenous people here really leaned into 1761 01:25:20,720 --> 01:25:25,240 Speaker 3: their int their you know, to their explicit erotic pottery. Anyway, 1762 01:25:26,720 --> 01:25:28,760 Speaker 3: is this about how much you expected to make? Seven 1763 01:25:28,840 --> 01:25:30,880 Speaker 3: hundred and fifty grand and two months feels like a 1764 01:25:30,920 --> 01:25:31,599 Speaker 3: lot of money. 1765 01:25:32,640 --> 01:25:35,519 Speaker 21: It does, and it is pretty much in line with 1766 01:25:35,520 --> 01:25:38,400 Speaker 21: what we expected to make. In fact, we're at ninety 1767 01:25:38,479 --> 01:25:41,599 Speaker 21: seven percent of what our projection was. So I take 1768 01:25:41,640 --> 01:25:45,160 Speaker 21: my hat off to our finance boffins because they struck 1769 01:25:45,160 --> 01:25:47,599 Speaker 21: it pretty much on the nail, which is not actually 1770 01:25:47,640 --> 01:25:50,240 Speaker 21: an easy thing to do because given that to Papa 1771 01:25:50,280 --> 01:25:53,040 Speaker 21: has always been free inchy, you know, it's free inchry 1772 01:25:53,080 --> 01:25:56,080 Speaker 21: for the New Zealanders. Now we're charging internationals. But in 1773 01:25:56,120 --> 01:25:59,280 Speaker 21: the past we've never known precisely how many New Zealanders 1774 01:25:59,360 --> 01:26:02,760 Speaker 21: versus internetationals were coming in because they went passing through 1775 01:26:02,800 --> 01:26:05,400 Speaker 21: any kind of a turnstyle or anything at entry. So 1776 01:26:06,160 --> 01:26:08,720 Speaker 21: I think that we've done really well in terms of 1777 01:26:08,800 --> 01:26:11,000 Speaker 21: what the income we've been able to generate and in 1778 01:26:11,120 --> 01:26:13,400 Speaker 21: terms of yeah, our predictions are pretty much played out 1779 01:26:13,400 --> 01:26:14,040 Speaker 21: as expected. 1780 01:26:14,120 --> 01:26:16,240 Speaker 3: Well, I suppose you not only can you is it 1781 01:26:16,280 --> 01:26:18,800 Speaker 3: hard to quantify exactly how many international tourists you have. 1782 01:26:18,920 --> 01:26:21,599 Speaker 3: It's also hard to quantify how many might not come 1783 01:26:21,640 --> 01:26:25,680 Speaker 3: in if they don't want to pay thirty five bucks, right, Yeah, I. 1784 01:26:25,640 --> 01:26:29,439 Speaker 21: Mean we're doing very close observation, which includes observing people 1785 01:26:29,479 --> 01:26:31,800 Speaker 21: who might come up to the door and see that 1786 01:26:31,840 --> 01:26:33,840 Speaker 21: they need to pay and then walk away. You know, 1787 01:26:33,920 --> 01:26:36,600 Speaker 21: we took advice from our friends at Auckland Museum and 1788 01:26:36,680 --> 01:26:39,639 Speaker 21: other places around the country around what things to look 1789 01:26:39,640 --> 01:26:43,440 Speaker 21: out for. But in the end, mostly what we're experiencing 1790 01:26:43,600 --> 01:26:47,120 Speaker 21: is our international visitors are pretty happy to pay. They 1791 01:26:47,960 --> 01:26:50,200 Speaker 21: based on our research that we're doing a lot of 1792 01:26:50,320 --> 01:26:52,800 Speaker 21: interviews with people as they're leaving the museum, they seem 1793 01:26:52,840 --> 01:26:54,160 Speaker 21: pretty comfortable. 1794 01:26:53,960 --> 01:26:56,320 Speaker 3: Right, Okay, So how did you decide on that price point. 1795 01:26:57,600 --> 01:27:00,920 Speaker 21: It was based on research on you know, other attractions 1796 01:27:00,920 --> 01:27:03,519 Speaker 21: in New Zealand. I mean, Tapapa has been number one 1797 01:27:03,560 --> 01:27:06,200 Speaker 21: on New Zealand's Tourist Attractions for a long time now, 1798 01:27:06,200 --> 01:27:09,160 Speaker 21: and we're number one in the South Pacific Entrip Advisor 1799 01:27:09,200 --> 01:27:11,519 Speaker 21: as well. So we believe and I think the evidence 1800 01:27:11,560 --> 01:27:13,960 Speaker 21: shows that we've got a really great product. So we 1801 01:27:14,040 --> 01:27:16,960 Speaker 21: needed to compare ourselves against other things. You've got Auckland 1802 01:27:17,040 --> 01:27:21,080 Speaker 21: Museum it's thirty two dollars for internationals, Waitangi Treaty Grounds 1803 01:27:21,200 --> 01:27:25,639 Speaker 21: is sixty dollars for internationals, and Tapuia the geffrmal Valley 1804 01:27:26,000 --> 01:27:28,760 Speaker 21: recently moved to a model where it's tour only and 1805 01:27:28,800 --> 01:27:32,320 Speaker 21: that's now ninety five dollars entry. So you know, the 1806 01:27:32,360 --> 01:27:37,080 Speaker 21: tourism industry in New Zealand is a it's a rich 1807 01:27:37,520 --> 01:27:41,080 Speaker 21: area in the sense of there's a lot going on, 1808 01:27:41,160 --> 01:27:44,519 Speaker 21: but also by definition, when you're an international visitor coming 1809 01:27:44,520 --> 01:27:47,280 Speaker 21: to New Zealand, you're looking for these in depth, once 1810 01:27:47,320 --> 01:27:50,439 Speaker 21: in the lifetime experiences. You're not here for a cheap 1811 01:27:50,479 --> 01:27:53,559 Speaker 21: and cheerful holiday. For most of our visitors and there. 1812 01:27:53,439 --> 01:27:55,320 Speaker 3: I suggest that not want to want to go on 1813 01:27:55,360 --> 01:27:59,160 Speaker 3: about the Erotic Pottery Museum too. But if you've my 1814 01:27:59,320 --> 01:28:03,040 Speaker 3: editue was like traveled this far. You know, it's like, oh, 1815 01:28:03,120 --> 01:28:04,519 Speaker 3: twenty bucks seems like a lot, but it's like, oh, 1816 01:28:04,520 --> 01:28:07,120 Speaker 3: you've traveled, you've traveled this far, you've come. If you've 1817 01:28:07,160 --> 01:28:09,000 Speaker 3: come to New Zealand, you've traveled from the other side 1818 01:28:09,000 --> 01:28:11,400 Speaker 3: of the world, you spent thousands of dollars on the 1819 01:28:11,400 --> 01:28:14,080 Speaker 3: air fears, then then maybe actually the thirty five dollars 1820 01:28:14,160 --> 01:28:17,320 Speaker 3: is palatable. So what happens how do you work out 1821 01:28:17,360 --> 01:28:19,080 Speaker 3: who's an overseas visitor and who's not. 1822 01:28:20,120 --> 01:28:22,640 Speaker 21: So it was really important to us when we implemented 1823 01:28:22,640 --> 01:28:25,240 Speaker 21: it that the process be really easy for our New 1824 01:28:25,320 --> 01:28:27,920 Speaker 21: Zealand visitors who are free. So that was very much 1825 01:28:27,960 --> 01:28:30,680 Speaker 21: top of mind in terms of the entry procedure. So 1826 01:28:31,080 --> 01:28:33,400 Speaker 21: we as people they bowl in the doors and they 1827 01:28:33,439 --> 01:28:35,599 Speaker 21: agree to buy a host saying hey, we're joining us 1828 01:28:35,600 --> 01:28:39,200 Speaker 21: from today. If they say Grost Church or wherever, we 1829 01:28:39,280 --> 01:28:41,680 Speaker 21: say great, up you go. If they say I'm here 1830 01:28:41,720 --> 01:28:44,320 Speaker 21: from New York or Berlin or wherever else in the world, 1831 01:28:44,400 --> 01:28:46,920 Speaker 21: they go through to the ticketing Q. So it is 1832 01:28:46,960 --> 01:28:50,880 Speaker 21: based on people's self declaration of where they're from, and 1833 01:28:50,920 --> 01:28:53,679 Speaker 21: we're finding that's working really well. I mean, I'm sure 1834 01:28:53,720 --> 01:28:55,800 Speaker 21: there'll be one or two cheeky people who slipped through 1835 01:28:55,800 --> 01:28:58,799 Speaker 21: the cracks, but for us, what's more important is making 1836 01:28:58,840 --> 01:29:02,919 Speaker 21: the experience really smooth and welcoming for all of our visitors. 1837 01:29:03,040 --> 01:29:05,080 Speaker 21: And you know, it's a numbers game in the end 1838 01:29:05,120 --> 01:29:07,439 Speaker 21: of it. If a couple of cheeky backpackickers get through 1839 01:29:07,439 --> 01:29:09,240 Speaker 21: on a busy Saturday, that's not the end of the 1840 01:29:09,240 --> 01:29:10,320 Speaker 21: world from our point of view. 1841 01:29:10,360 --> 01:29:13,599 Speaker 3: Yeah, fair enough. Are there people who like get there 1842 01:29:13,640 --> 01:29:15,040 Speaker 3: and say, you know what, I really want to look in, 1843 01:29:15,120 --> 01:29:16,680 Speaker 3: but thirty five bucks is too much for me. 1844 01:29:17,720 --> 01:29:19,599 Speaker 21: I'm sure there'll be the odd one. There hasn't been 1845 01:29:19,600 --> 01:29:21,960 Speaker 21: that many, and from the reporting i've seen back from 1846 01:29:22,000 --> 01:29:24,479 Speaker 21: on the floor. The other thing is it's a forty 1847 01:29:24,520 --> 01:29:26,880 Speaker 21: eight hour ticket. So we do get people often who'll 1848 01:29:26,880 --> 01:29:28,360 Speaker 21: come at the end of the day and say, well, 1849 01:29:28,400 --> 01:29:30,200 Speaker 21: I'm not sure I've really got time, but then they 1850 01:29:30,720 --> 01:29:33,479 Speaker 21: can come back the following day so get their moneyes 1851 01:29:33,520 --> 01:29:35,960 Speaker 21: with because i mean, most people who visit to Papa 1852 01:29:36,000 --> 01:29:40,240 Speaker 21: spend multiple hours there. It's you know, it's not a 1853 01:29:40,320 --> 01:29:43,040 Speaker 21: quick look there's a lot to see and so you know, 1854 01:29:43,080 --> 01:29:45,800 Speaker 21: we think that they're definitely getting their money's worth. 1855 01:29:45,920 --> 01:29:47,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, what does the money go towards. 1856 01:29:48,880 --> 01:29:51,519 Speaker 21: I just goes towards supporting the work that Papa does. 1857 01:29:51,560 --> 01:29:54,360 Speaker 21: We're funded by government to the tune of forty four 1858 01:29:54,360 --> 01:29:56,320 Speaker 21: million a year and we need to raise another thirty 1859 01:29:56,360 --> 01:29:59,240 Speaker 21: million a year just to stand still. So if you've 1860 01:29:59,280 --> 01:30:01,720 Speaker 21: looked at your insurance and power bills this year, you 1861 01:30:01,720 --> 01:30:04,280 Speaker 21: probably had to sharpen take a breath. Well, you can 1862 01:30:04,320 --> 01:30:06,600 Speaker 21: imagine for us, with you know, building the size of 1863 01:30:06,640 --> 01:30:10,040 Speaker 21: twenty six rugby fields, the cost of living for to 1864 01:30:10,160 --> 01:30:14,600 Speaker 21: Pappa is very, very intense. So for us, it's just 1865 01:30:14,640 --> 01:30:17,680 Speaker 21: a pragmatic decision of what can we do to keep 1866 01:30:17,720 --> 01:30:20,320 Speaker 21: to Pupper free from New Zealanders, keep the experience at 1867 01:30:20,320 --> 01:30:22,800 Speaker 21: that high quality. And we're doing all the other things too. 1868 01:30:22,840 --> 01:30:24,360 Speaker 21: I mean, what you see on the floor is just 1869 01:30:24,640 --> 01:30:27,200 Speaker 21: the tip of the iceberg. We've got two point two 1870 01:30:27,240 --> 01:30:29,559 Speaker 21: million items to look after in the back of house, 1871 01:30:29,640 --> 01:30:33,879 Speaker 21: be they you know, dried up cicadas or Shackleton's sleds. 1872 01:30:33,880 --> 01:30:35,479 Speaker 21: So you know, there's a lot of other things that 1873 01:30:36,240 --> 01:30:39,280 Speaker 21: power the museum behind the scenes, and you know, all 1874 01:30:39,280 --> 01:30:41,280 Speaker 21: of those things require money to keep them going. 1875 01:30:41,520 --> 01:30:44,800 Speaker 3: So you made seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars in 1876 01:30:44,920 --> 01:30:48,960 Speaker 3: about two months, so it's about four point five million 1877 01:30:49,000 --> 01:30:51,559 Speaker 3: a year, or are you expecting to make a bit 1878 01:30:51,600 --> 01:30:53,679 Speaker 3: more than that because we haven't entered the busy season 1879 01:30:53,720 --> 01:30:54,040 Speaker 3: just yet. 1880 01:30:55,240 --> 01:30:57,360 Speaker 21: Well, we haven't entered the busy season, but equally we 1881 01:30:57,439 --> 01:31:01,360 Speaker 21: haven't been through the winter season yet, probably even out 1882 01:31:01,400 --> 01:31:04,479 Speaker 21: over the years. So we were very cautious in making 1883 01:31:04,479 --> 01:31:07,000 Speaker 21: any projections when we started out, and we're still pretty 1884 01:31:07,000 --> 01:31:09,120 Speaker 21: cautious because you know, we're only a few months into 1885 01:31:09,160 --> 01:31:12,519 Speaker 21: something that's brand new. But yeah, we think several million 1886 01:31:12,600 --> 01:31:16,040 Speaker 21: a year will be a reasonable amount to expect, and 1887 01:31:16,400 --> 01:31:18,800 Speaker 21: that can you go towards supporting all of the work 1888 01:31:18,840 --> 01:31:20,120 Speaker 21: we do, then that's awesome. 1889 01:31:20,240 --> 01:31:22,080 Speaker 3: Do you wish you to introduce the charges maybe a 1890 01:31:22,080 --> 01:31:22,639 Speaker 3: bit earlier? 1891 01:31:24,360 --> 01:31:24,760 Speaker 19: I don't know. 1892 01:31:25,000 --> 01:31:27,519 Speaker 21: I suffer from this thing in life where anytime I 1893 01:31:27,600 --> 01:31:29,320 Speaker 21: do something good, I think God, I should have done 1894 01:31:29,320 --> 01:31:32,040 Speaker 21: this twenty years ago. So maybe it's an age thing. 1895 01:31:32,200 --> 01:31:34,560 Speaker 21: So I don't know. I just feel like this is 1896 01:31:34,600 --> 01:31:37,840 Speaker 21: a time when to Papa has probably become We've been 1897 01:31:37,880 --> 01:31:41,320 Speaker 21: through our early early childhood years. Now we've entered out 1898 01:31:41,360 --> 01:31:44,840 Speaker 21: in our national Treasure phase and I think New Zealand 1899 01:31:44,880 --> 01:31:46,840 Speaker 21: has known us so well as this free attraction, and 1900 01:31:46,880 --> 01:31:50,040 Speaker 21: I think they probably realized that now is the right 1901 01:31:50,080 --> 01:31:52,439 Speaker 21: time for us to do this for internationals so that 1902 01:31:52,479 --> 01:31:55,360 Speaker 21: we can stay free for Kiwis because you know, I mean, 1903 01:31:55,400 --> 01:31:58,000 Speaker 21: you guys own to Papa, you own all the collections, 1904 01:31:58,000 --> 01:32:00,400 Speaker 21: you own the building, you know, so it's really important 1905 01:32:00,439 --> 01:32:02,160 Speaker 21: that New Zealanders can always come for three. 1906 01:32:02,360 --> 01:32:06,639 Speaker 3: Yeah, right, that makes you know, makes total sense? Hey, 1907 01:32:06,960 --> 01:32:10,840 Speaker 3: number one on trip Advisory. 1908 01:32:09,320 --> 01:32:12,559 Speaker 21: Well that's something. Yeah, it's something that many places aspire to. 1909 01:32:12,680 --> 01:32:15,400 Speaker 21: But we've got stuff competition out there, from Melford Sound 1910 01:32:15,400 --> 01:32:19,200 Speaker 21: to Hobbiton. It's a real mixed bag. Who are competing 1911 01:32:19,240 --> 01:32:19,800 Speaker 21: for that title? 1912 01:32:20,520 --> 01:32:22,320 Speaker 3: Did do you have to like? Yeah? Do you have 1913 01:32:22,400 --> 01:32:23,680 Speaker 3: to do you have to do stuff for that? Do 1914 01:32:23,720 --> 01:32:25,720 Speaker 3: you have to like if people write a riven you 1915 01:32:25,760 --> 01:32:27,719 Speaker 3: do you have to go on and say, oh, sorry, Gary, 1916 01:32:27,800 --> 01:32:28,160 Speaker 3: you know. 1917 01:32:29,320 --> 01:32:31,439 Speaker 21: Sorry about that. Gary. I did have one the other 1918 01:32:31,520 --> 01:32:33,760 Speaker 21: day where someone gave us a negative review because while 1919 01:32:33,760 --> 01:32:35,680 Speaker 21: they're at the cafe, someone bumped into the back of 1920 01:32:35,720 --> 01:32:37,719 Speaker 21: their chair, which I did think was a little harsh. 1921 01:32:37,760 --> 01:32:41,080 Speaker 21: But I think for us it's about the experience, the 1922 01:32:41,160 --> 01:32:44,200 Speaker 21: quality of the experience and the interactions that people have 1923 01:32:44,280 --> 01:32:46,599 Speaker 21: it to Papa, And when you read the reviews, it's 1924 01:32:46,640 --> 01:32:50,360 Speaker 21: often they'll say, oh, an amazing host told me something 1925 01:32:50,400 --> 01:32:53,040 Speaker 21: I would never have known otherwise, or you know that 1926 01:32:53,120 --> 01:32:55,760 Speaker 21: personal touch is really important. And I think that's one 1927 01:32:55,760 --> 01:32:58,519 Speaker 21: thing that's quite nice about having introduced the charge is 1928 01:32:58,560 --> 01:33:01,559 Speaker 21: that part of that entry now is that basically every 1929 01:33:01,600 --> 01:33:06,000 Speaker 21: single person who comes in needs to be greeted. And 1930 01:33:06,600 --> 01:33:09,200 Speaker 21: I actually think that creates a more welcoming vibe when 1931 01:33:09,240 --> 01:33:10,200 Speaker 21: people come in the door. 1932 01:33:10,439 --> 01:33:12,679 Speaker 3: Yeah, oh fantastic.

Now many of the 1954 01:34:13,640 --> 01:34:17,800 Speaker 11: opposition party who say this election was a shock result, 1955 01:34:18,400 --> 01:34:22,240 Speaker 11: say the election was rigged and they are demanding that 1956 01:34:22,280 --> 01:34:24,600 Speaker 11: the government think again. It has also led to a 1957 01:34:24,680 --> 01:34:29,759 Speaker 11: string of very very senior resignations of people within the country. Indeed, 1958 01:34:29,800 --> 01:34:34,000 Speaker 11: the latest reports suggest George's ambassador to the US has 1959 01:34:34,200 --> 01:34:37,640 Speaker 11: now stood down, saying he'd come under considerable pressure. But 1960 01:34:37,720 --> 01:34:41,320 Speaker 11: it's not just those high profile figures as well. Teachers 1961 01:34:41,360 --> 01:34:44,759 Speaker 11: other workers all say that they are going to resign 1962 01:34:44,880 --> 01:34:48,479 Speaker 11: or refusing to work, and it really has led a 1963 01:34:48,600 --> 01:34:53,360 Speaker 11: very very frustrating period for the country. Now three thousand 1964 01:34:53,479 --> 01:34:57,000 Speaker 11: teachers signing letters condemning the decision to put the EU 1965 01:34:57,160 --> 01:35:01,439 Speaker 11: accession on hold so joining the European UNI the pro 1966 01:35:01,680 --> 01:35:05,400 Speaker 11: Western president who's due to step down in just four 1967 01:35:05,439 --> 01:35:09,559 Speaker 11: weeks time. She says she's going to refuse to step 1968 01:35:09,600 --> 01:35:13,559 Speaker 11: down until a new vote has been held. So at 1969 01:35:13,560 --> 01:35:16,400 Speaker 11: the moment, Georgia, with its population a three point seven 1970 01:35:16,479 --> 01:35:20,120 Speaker 11: million and a bridge as it were, between Eastern Europe 1971 01:35:20,160 --> 01:35:24,200 Speaker 11: and Russia, very much, very much in a deepening political 1972 01:35:24,280 --> 01:35:28,160 Speaker 11: and constitutional crisis, with tens of thousands of people out 1973 01:35:28,200 --> 01:35:31,960 Speaker 11: on the freezing streets again last night, met with the water, canon, 1974 01:35:32,080 --> 01:35:37,600 Speaker 11: tear gas and all sorts of really pretty violent and 1975 01:35:37,720 --> 01:35:41,320 Speaker 11: harsh reaction from the police. Many fear this country is 1976 01:35:41,680 --> 01:35:46,120 Speaker 11: really looking into the abyss regards whether or not another 1977 01:35:46,160 --> 01:35:47,160 Speaker 11: election will be held. 1978 01:35:48,800 --> 01:35:53,720 Speaker 3: How have Greg Wallace's alleged victims reacted to his response. 1979 01:35:54,280 --> 01:35:58,719 Speaker 11: Yeah, pretty furious, of course. Greg Wallace, big television star 1980 01:35:58,880 --> 01:36:02,080 Speaker 11: here for the BBC, he hosted Master Chef over twenty 1981 01:36:02,160 --> 01:36:09,880 Speaker 11: years and suspended for alleged inappropriate sexual comments and inappropriate behavior. 1982 01:36:10,680 --> 01:36:13,000 Speaker 11: He then went on to social media and said this 1983 01:36:13,120 --> 01:36:15,360 Speaker 11: is these complaints have come from a handful of middle 1984 01:36:15,360 --> 01:36:18,479 Speaker 11: class women of a certain age. Well, many of his 1985 01:36:18,800 --> 01:36:21,439 Speaker 11: victims now stepping forward and saying well, look this just 1986 01:36:21,520 --> 01:36:24,240 Speaker 11: shows that he hasn't learned his lesson. He seems to 1987 01:36:24,240 --> 01:36:27,719 Speaker 11: be saying he's the victim of classism, and they're saying 1988 01:36:27,760 --> 01:36:30,160 Speaker 11: this has got nothing to do with class it's got 1989 01:36:30,160 --> 01:36:32,960 Speaker 11: something to do with your behavior. And they alleged that 1990 01:36:33,000 --> 01:36:36,080 Speaker 11: he should really, in this period where he stepped aside, 1991 01:36:36,080 --> 01:36:39,479 Speaker 11: have a think about his behavior and what he reckons 1992 01:36:39,520 --> 01:36:42,479 Speaker 11: about it. So this does look like it's going to 1993 01:36:42,520 --> 01:36:45,000 Speaker 11: be a very very difficult period for the program, and 1994 01:36:45,240 --> 01:36:49,439 Speaker 11: questions of course for the BBC about how they have 1995 01:36:49,760 --> 01:36:53,240 Speaker 11: handled earlier complaints about the sixty year old, why he 1996 01:36:53,400 --> 01:36:56,800 Speaker 11: wasn't looked at earlier, how he was still presenting the program, 1997 01:36:57,080 --> 01:37:00,880 Speaker 11: and what they knew when basically so at the moment, 1998 01:37:00,960 --> 01:37:04,080 Speaker 11: as I said, he's suspended. These are all allegations. But 1999 01:37:04,280 --> 01:37:07,360 Speaker 11: since he's made his comments now a growing number of 2000 01:37:07,640 --> 01:37:11,080 Speaker 11: younger women on the program who haven't made complaints at 2001 01:37:11,080 --> 01:37:14,880 Speaker 11: the time, are it is reported, coming forward Jack now 2002 01:37:14,920 --> 01:37:15,880 Speaker 11: to complaint as well. 2003 01:37:16,160 --> 01:37:20,960 Speaker 3: And given to Belgium, we're Belgium's six workers get maternity 2004 01:37:21,000 --> 01:37:23,960 Speaker 3: leaven pensions under a new World first law. 2005 01:37:25,160 --> 01:37:30,320 Speaker 11: Yes, quite extraordinarly there so real leaping in h I 2006 01:37:30,360 --> 01:37:34,479 Speaker 11: suppose sort of modern day thinking but sex workers will 2007 01:37:34,520 --> 01:37:39,560 Speaker 11: be entitled to official employment contracts, the health insurance, pensions, 2008 01:37:39,760 --> 01:37:43,559 Speaker 11: maternity leave and sick day. In other words, being a 2009 01:37:43,720 --> 01:37:46,400 Speaker 11: prostitute will be the same or being a sex worker 2010 01:37:46,479 --> 01:37:49,400 Speaker 11: will be treated like any other job. And there are 2011 01:37:49,439 --> 01:37:54,080 Speaker 11: tens of millions of sex workers worldwide. But it's decriminalized 2012 01:37:54,120 --> 01:37:57,240 Speaker 11: in Belgium just a couple of years ago, legal in 2013 01:37:57,360 --> 01:38:01,880 Speaker 11: several countries now, including Germany, Greece, the Viands. But getting 2014 01:38:01,920 --> 01:38:05,120 Speaker 11: that sort of employment rights and getting contracts out there 2015 01:38:05,160 --> 01:38:08,160 Speaker 11: for sex workers that is a global first. Many are 2016 01:38:08,200 --> 01:38:11,000 Speaker 11: saying this is great, a great tactic from Belgium to 2017 01:38:11,120 --> 01:38:14,320 Speaker 11: change the law and saying, you know, this all what 2018 01:38:14,439 --> 01:38:17,280 Speaker 11: got prompted because the lack of state support during the 2019 01:38:17,280 --> 01:38:20,840 Speaker 11: COVID pandemic. But others are saying, are we really really 2020 01:38:20,840 --> 01:38:24,000 Speaker 11: in a state where we are acknowledging and doing more 2021 01:38:24,040 --> 01:38:26,960 Speaker 11: than acknowledging sex workers by giving them these rates. 2022 01:38:27,040 --> 01:38:29,439 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's fascinating, isn't it.
