We've 6 00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:18,000 Speaker 2: decided we quite like the police are Italy and the 7 00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:21,000 Speaker 2: Pope Germany and the vote. The lads in the commentary box, 8 00:00:21,079 --> 00:00:25,280 Speaker 2: Richard Arnold, Steve Price, their gold medalists as well pasking 9 00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:27,240 Speaker 2: welcome to the day, seven past six, so we should 10 00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:29,120 Speaker 2: all be paying attention by the way to Fontira at 11 00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:31,360 Speaker 2: the moment. They're one of the country's star operators. Of course, 12 00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:33,440 Speaker 2: they play an outsize role in our lives given their 13 00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:36,680 Speaker 2: size and success, and their success of late has composed 14 00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:39,040 Speaker 2: the previous CEO, and as a result of the arrival 15 00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:43,320 Speaker 2: of the current CEO, they're funneling billions into our beleaged economy, 16 00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:44,879 Speaker 2: and each and every one of us is affected and 17 00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:48,159 Speaker 2: should be grateful for their performance. But they might be 18 00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:50,519 Speaker 2: about to make a mistake. They're looking to shift their 19 00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:53,279 Speaker 2: consumer business now. Their core business is getting milk from 20 00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:55,160 Speaker 2: farmers and doing stuff to it. Milk powder is a 21 00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:57,480 Speaker 2: big one is where the big money is that the 22 00:00:57,480 --> 00:00:59,720 Speaker 2: world loves high quality dary know and does it better 23 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:02,760 Speaker 2: than us. But they also have what they call consumer brands, 24 00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:06,640 Speaker 2: end products that you know, Capity, Mainland, fern leaf anchor. 25 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:08,840 Speaker 2: They want to move them on in one of a 26 00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:10,880 Speaker 2: couple of ways. They want to do this because they've 27 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:15,119 Speaker 2: decided someone else can do it better. In this they're wrong. 28 00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:17,520 Speaker 2: A trade sale is an option i e. You sell 29 00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:21,400 Speaker 2: it off and you pocket the money. Big, big, big mistake. 30 00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:23,920 Speaker 2: They did that with tip Top. They should have held it. 31 00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:26,600 Speaker 2: Or they're doing an ipo afloat so you and I 32 00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,240 Speaker 2: get the chance to potentially buy a slice. A better 33 00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:32,839 Speaker 2: idea but not ideal. To specialize in one thing is fine, 34 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 2: but there is no reason think about it. There's no 35 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:39,279 Speaker 2: reason Fontira can't make sell market and succeed with butter 36 00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:41,720 Speaker 2: or cheese or ice cream. There's no reason they can't 37 00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 2: hire the best people to make a top success of 38 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:46,640 Speaker 2: these sort of products. It's not like they're moving into 39 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:50,240 Speaker 2: housing or car manufacturing areas. They know nothing about. You 40 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:52,919 Speaker 2: milk a cow, you sell ice cream. It's connected. Value 41 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:55,360 Speaker 2: add is in part what has held this country back. 42 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 2: Chopping a tree down, for example, and then we sell 43 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 2: it to China and they do the rest. It's madness. 44 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,280 Speaker 2: If Fontier can lead the world in bulk dairy, they 45 00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 2: can lead the world and the products that result. Brands 46 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 2: are valuable. They take time and passion to create, and 47 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:10,080 Speaker 2: they're worth more than a shipload of powder. Lots of 48 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:13,120 Speaker 2: people can do the powder in the bulk brands refined 49 00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 2: product value add that's where you want to be. And 50 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:19,960 Speaker 2: the thing is they're already there, they already had them, 51 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 2: and now they want to walk away. 52 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:27,359 Speaker 1: Nuts News of the world in ninety seconds. 53 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:29,720 Speaker 2: Updates on a couple of wars dueling revelations over the 54 00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 2: weekend as to whether Zelenski had folded on the Trump 55 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:34,560 Speaker 2: idea of handing over a lot of minerals and rare earths. 56 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 3: Trump was at Seapacker, we don't get our money back. 57 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 3: We get enough thing. So we're getting our money back. 58 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:41,880 Speaker 3: We're going to get our money back because it's it's 59 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:46,799 Speaker 3: not fair. It's just not fair. And we will see. 60 00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:49,080 Speaker 3: But I think we're pretty close to a deal, and 61 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 3: we better be close to a deal. 62 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 2: Zelenski may be about to sign. 63 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:57,359 Speaker 4: We want win wins. 64 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 5: You have businesses Ukrainian Ukraine. 65 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,359 Speaker 6: It's is the agreement that we should be signing. 66 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:06,840 Speaker 2: Either wid defenses front and center in Europe now that 67 00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:08,960 Speaker 2: America looks disinterested long term, we. 68 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 7: Have to be ready to reshape our economy with industrial policy, 69 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 7: to stand up for Ukraine, to stand up for Europe, 70 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:18,960 Speaker 7: but most of all to stand up for our security 71 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:21,560 Speaker 7: because Ukraine is vital to us. 72 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,080 Speaker 2: The irony that we had the same sort of thoughts 73 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 2: out of the week and really as a result of 74 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 2: the Chinese turning up in the Tasman will be discussed 75 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:29,960 Speaker 2: with Judith Colin shortly. Anyway, the other war this is 76 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 2: a miss. The Israeli is ropable either that hostage cockup. 77 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:36,840 Speaker 8: In light of the repeated violations by Hamas, including rituals 78 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 8: that humiliate the dignity of our hostages, It's been decided 79 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 8: to postpone the release of prisoners that were scheduled for 80 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 8: Saturday until the release of the next hostages is guaranteed. 81 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:48,040 Speaker 2: Hama's trying to spin it. 82 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 9: We have fulfited all the duties from our side according 83 00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 9: to the deal, but what we have seen until now 84 00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 9: violations of the first phase and the rediction to be 85 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 9: involved in a second fizz. 86 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 2: Then our mate in hospital has written a letter. 87 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 10: I'm confidently continuing my hospitalization at the Gemelli Hospital. Carrying 88 00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:15,120 Speaker 10: on with the necessary treatment and rest is also part 89 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:18,599 Speaker 10: of the therapy. Thank you for this closeness and for 90 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:21,880 Speaker 10: the prayers of comfort I've received from all over the world. 91 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 2: Right, Germany numbers are in CDU CSU twenty nine. These 92 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:29,760 Speaker 2: poles are dangerously accurate in Germany. We've got to get 93 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 2: some polsters like them. So these numbers come out. The 94 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 2: poles closed a couple of moments ago, so CDU CSU 95 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:39,840 Speaker 2: twenty nine. That's from one of the broadcasters. Another broadcaster 96 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 2: has them at twenty eight point five at the moment, 97 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:46,240 Speaker 2: the AfD second at nineteen point five, the SPD at sixteen, 98 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 2: the Greens at thirteen and a half the left of 99 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 2: eight point five. So what do you do? Do you 100 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 2: do business with the AfD? No, you do not, allegedly, 101 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 2: so to the CDU CSU do something with this SPD. Possibly, 102 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,039 Speaker 2: so we'll go to Germany later. On twelve past six. 103 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 1: The Mic Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered 104 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:08,640 Speaker 1: by News Talk. 105 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:15,880 Speaker 2: ZIB News Talks B. Here's the af D leader. We 106 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 2: got it all not. 107 00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 11: If what happens what we expected, that the CDU is 108 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:26,320 Speaker 11: taking notes from US and is doing electoral fraud with 109 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:30,040 Speaker 11: their own voters by then forming a coalition with the 110 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 11: left parties, then they can tell you the next elections 111 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 11: will happen sooner as you think, and then you will 112 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:41,520 Speaker 11: over take the CU and be the strongest party. That's 113 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 11: our objective. 114 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 2: Right, So what you producing the cd U c SU 115 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 2: at twenty nine percent? Do you do business with the SPD, which, 116 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:51,159 Speaker 2: of course the Schulters party has just been booted out 117 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 2: and so he's of the left. So does the center 118 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 2: right deal with the left and usurping the AfD. That's 119 00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:00,359 Speaker 2: what she's referring to. So Germany appears to be in 120 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 2: a stalemate this morning. But as I say, we'll go 121 00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:06,880 Speaker 2: there in about announce time fifteen past six, n't fund 122 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 2: manage mcgregg smith, Morning to you, Morning to you, Mike. 123 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:13,480 Speaker 2: Was spark a surprise at that level. 124 00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:17,159 Speaker 12: It was a surprise the market was expecting a poor result, 125 00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 12: that it was much poorer than expected. There wasn't really 126 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 12: any bright spots in a major way at all. So 127 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 12: it was seeing some earning disappoints over the here but 128 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:27,479 Speaker 12: this one was an absolute doozy on Friday, so the 129 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 12: share price fell nineteen percent. That's a huge move for 130 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:34,200 Speaker 12: such a big company. So what a billion dollars from 131 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:37,800 Speaker 12: the telcos market value? Net profit that fell seventy eight 132 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 12: percent and then reduced the full year outlook as well. 133 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:42,200 Speaker 12: So look, we know things are tough, we know we're 134 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:46,239 Speaker 12: in a recession, but this was their third profit downgrade. 135 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:46,279 Speaker 5: In the year. 136 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:48,480 Speaker 12: So normally it gets sort of an advanced warning of 137 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:52,000 Speaker 12: these things, and investors didn't and that's what they're rected to. 138 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:54,520 Speaker 12: So we know the government's coming back on spending, so 139 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,359 Speaker 12: to a business's consumers also looking for better deals than 140 00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:00,360 Speaker 12: a competer mobile market, so this is all taking toll 141 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 12: So what's the telco doing. They're trying to reduce costs. 142 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:04,600 Speaker 12: You see lots of businesses are doing that against the 143 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 12: backdrop of a recession. Look what one mind Brits Spot 144 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:09,280 Speaker 12: I suppose you could say its data centers, but it's 145 00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 12: still a small part of the business for now. And 146 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:14,160 Speaker 12: they did also reaffirm their dividend guidance for the full year. 147 00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 12: But that's something because they're selling the rest of their 148 00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 12: stake and sell to our company connects as so the 149 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 12: investors focused on the underlying result there, Mike, and you 150 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 12: are pretty poor on it there. It wasn't the only 151 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:26,720 Speaker 12: one in the days. Sky Network TV they fell three 152 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,840 Speaker 12: percent as well, their half unings down twenty six percent, 153 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 12: So we know the problems I've had with their satellite 154 00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 12: migration project. But also the recession is binding. But they've 155 00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 12: been spending lots on programming. Good for a coverage of 156 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 12: the Paris Olympics, but leaves a bit of a bill, 157 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 12: so they're going to moderate that. But good news for 158 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 12: them as they have got that six year deal on 159 00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 12: the home matches for black Caps and White Ferns. But 160 00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:49,240 Speaker 12: I suppose you have to say, Mike, last week you 161 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 12: look at the results in Spark, Sky TV, sky City 162 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 12: Finsure building, they will really reflect how tough air economy 163 00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 12: is at the moment. I suppose the brightness on the 164 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:01,200 Speaker 12: horizon we had it babien zed Raycat and there'll be 165 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 12: more of those in the coming months, so maybe a 166 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:04,200 Speaker 12: better second half. 167 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 2: Of the year. And we also have Frontira. 168 00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:10,640 Speaker 12: That's right, and you talked obviously about the divestment plans there. 169 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 12: But yeah, the airy sector has been going well further 170 00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 12: reminded here. So fin Tierra they've forecasts at full year 171 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 12: twenty five earnings will be in the upper half of 172 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:23,520 Speaker 12: their previously announced range, also forecasting a twenty four to 173 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 12: twenty five farm gate milk price midpoint of ten bucks 174 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 12: per kilogram of milk sids, so that would be a 175 00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:32,320 Speaker 12: record milk collections. They're going well favorable weather, so they're 176 00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 12: up to one ten million kilograms milk solids and they 177 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 12: said there's going to be really strong in term difference. 178 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:41,440 Speaker 12: That's all great news for dairy farmers. My frontier shoes 179 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 12: themselves are up almost five percent. And let's not forget 180 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 12: there was another big positive story for the sector last 181 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 12: week A two. They rose twenty percent on their results 182 00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:51,560 Speaker 12: earlier in the week. So they're doing well in Chining 183 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:53,760 Speaker 12: to spite declining birth rates and like a lot of 184 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:56,480 Speaker 12: exporters benefiting from a weaker Kiwi dollar. 185 00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 2: Now, what do we make of Domain, which of course 186 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:02,839 Speaker 2: is partly owned by Channel nine and this this American bid, Yeah, 187 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:03,600 Speaker 2: it's really interesting. 188 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:06,120 Speaker 12: So US real estate giant Coastar they came out and 189 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 12: launched a bid which values Domain at two point six 190 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 12: billion Australian dollars. So they just saw their years saw 191 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 12: forty percent on Friday, nine sixty percent of domain, so 192 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 12: their shares sort over twenty percent. They said the BID's 193 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:21,560 Speaker 12: not enough. They see domain strategically important. It has been 194 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 12: a prize to joy a set for them. So yeah, 195 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:26,200 Speaker 12: it's really interesting. It's not the first time Coastar has 196 00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 12: been inquisitive. It's attempted to buy a US portal Move 197 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:31,559 Speaker 12: for five billion look to do that from News Corp 198 00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:34,240 Speaker 12: a couple of years ago, bought on the market in 199 00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:36,840 Speaker 12: the UK, a really bit of a global landgraup. They 200 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:39,840 Speaker 12: bought three D mapping property mapping service Metaport for two 201 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 12: point five billion last year. So I suppose you know 202 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:44,640 Speaker 12: what if they do do it, what they can probably 203 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:47,320 Speaker 12: do look to do is invest more in domain. So 204 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:50,160 Speaker 12: at the moment, Domain is much smaller than bigger competitor 205 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:53,800 Speaker 12: Aria Group, which has around sixty percent of online listings 206 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:56,680 Speaker 12: versus domains thirty percent, and Area has just got much 207 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 12: more financial firepower. So they've vialed over thirty billion dollars. 208 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 12: That's ten times domain. The deal could level the playing 209 00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:05,840 Speaker 12: field and that's what co Star did when it bought 210 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 12: homes in a dot Com in twenty twenty one, so 211 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 12: they invested about a billion dollars in sales of marketing 212 00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:13,840 Speaker 12: and it took them from being a lagging listing site 213 00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:16,080 Speaker 12: to the one of the most popular in the US. 214 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 12: So perhaps stay tuned. And also it's a bit of 215 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:20,720 Speaker 12: a signal here. Mike the CEO OFRIA, he jumped ship 216 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 12: last week, so weirdly go to domain, so it could 217 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:24,600 Speaker 12: be a bit of a change in the guard. 218 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:26,880 Speaker 2: Interesting numbers please. 219 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 12: Yeah, So we had the Dow down one point seven 220 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:31,800 Speaker 12: percent on Friday and the some P five hundred he used. 221 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:34,840 Speaker 12: Consumer sentiment fell ten percent.

New Zealand 333 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:16,240 Speaker 15: was from New end sanctions monitoring work regarding North Korea. 334 00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:19,640 Speaker 15: So there's not many other ways out of that area 335 00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:23,240 Speaker 15: except through that particular waterway. So this is quite an 336 00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:26,800 Speaker 15: entirely different activity, and we certainly haven't done any live 337 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:28,640 Speaker 15: firing in Northeast Asia. 338 00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:30,880 Speaker 2: Will we continue to do that? And if we continue 339 00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:32,760 Speaker 2: to do that, will let be seen given what's happened 340 00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:34,120 Speaker 2: over the weekend is provocative. 341 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:37,360 Speaker 15: Well, of course we will continue to do what we're 342 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:40,480 Speaker 15: supposed to do, which is to help the United Nations 343 00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:46,000 Speaker 15: monitor sanctions against North Korea. So of course we will continue. 344 00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 15: We will also continue not to do live firing in 345 00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 15: that area and will be very careful to make sure 346 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:52,840 Speaker 15: that everyone knows what we're doing. 347 00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:53,560 Speaker 16: And there we are. 348 00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 2: Did Penny one get anything out of the Foreign Minister 349 00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 2: at the G twenty? Do you know? And has anyone 350 00:16:57,720 --> 00:16:58,080 Speaker 2: asked it? 351 00:16:59,520 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 8: No? 352 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 15: Sure that I can tell you that I've been talking 353 00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:07,520 Speaker 15: instead with the Australian Defense Minister and Deputy Prime Minister, 354 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:11,160 Speaker 15: Richard Males. So no, Penny is very different being mister 355 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:12,400 Speaker 15: Peters area. 356 00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:15,200 Speaker 2: Okay, Miles has left, You'll be in the air going 357 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:16,440 Speaker 2: to Washington at the moment, wading. 358 00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:19,600 Speaker 15: Well, there's a lot going on at the moment, and 359 00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:22,159 Speaker 15: of course everyone is trying to make sure that we 360 00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:26,199 Speaker 15: get to talk with the new administration in the US, 361 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:29,480 Speaker 15: just as we do with other important partners. 362 00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 2: And what did Miles tell you is are they worried? 363 00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:35,639 Speaker 15: Well, I think that they are very much like us. 364 00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:38,160 Speaker 15: They're aware of the situation. I don't think that anyone's 365 00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:41,120 Speaker 15: particularly worried. We're just aware that this is a new 366 00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:45,520 Speaker 15: thing that we've seen, which is an incredibly capable task 367 00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 15: group coming down into an area where we haven't seen 368 00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:53,679 Speaker 15: them before, and we've undertaken live firing with only a 369 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:54,760 Speaker 15: few hours notice. 370 00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:57,119 Speaker 2: Some suggesting I read over the weekend that part of 371 00:17:57,119 --> 00:17:59,359 Speaker 2: the deal with the Solomons, this is them parking themselves 372 00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 2: in this part of the world in a more present way. 373 00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:04,000 Speaker 2: This is the future. 374 00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:08,320 Speaker 15: Well, I think we need to be very aware that 375 00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:13,639 Speaker 15: there is now more geostrategic competition in the inter Pacific region. 376 00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:16,320 Speaker 15: You've seen it in the Cooks, You've seen it in 377 00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:20,480 Speaker 15: the Solomon's. Quite clearly, this is not fifteen years ago. 378 00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 15: Things have moved on. 379 00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 2: Is this the Americans going to do anything about this? 380 00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:26,239 Speaker 2: Do you think? I mean, they must be looking at 381 00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:27,960 Speaker 2: this with some level of concern, mustn't they? 382 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:31,600 Speaker 15: Well, I think they and other countries of the world 383 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 15: are looking at this and saying this is a new 384 00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:37,200 Speaker 15: development and Nobody wants to overreact, nobody wants to get 385 00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:40,439 Speaker 15: too excitable. eOne wants to be very calm and to 386 00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:44,920 Speaker 15: understand that while China is completely compliant with the UN, 387 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:48,200 Speaker 15: can each the law to see it is always quite 388 00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:50,880 Speaker 15: good to give people notice, particularly when the civil aviation 389 00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:53,200 Speaker 15: changes and flights heavy to be dead used. 390 00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:55,720 Speaker 2: Indeed, and this also debtails in with the Cook's deal, 391 00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:58,119 Speaker 2: which we've got some detail on over the weekend. So 392 00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:01,000 Speaker 2: the Chinese are here permanently on an ongame basis in 393 00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 2: general terms, How worried is the government about all of this? 394 00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 15: Why don't say, I'm We're not worried. What we are 395 00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:14,040 Speaker 15: very aware and the Cooks is exactly the situation that 396 00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:17,439 Speaker 15: we've long said, which is that it's about sea bed mining. 397 00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:21,600 Speaker 15: So the hole in the specific region run around the 398 00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:28,800 Speaker 15: fire is essentially a treasury of resources, particularly on the seabed, 399 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:30,440 Speaker 15: and that's what this is all about. 400 00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:33,399 Speaker 2: As you can see the review that you're conducting and 401 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:35,760 Speaker 2: have been for a sustained period of time. When's that 402 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:37,400 Speaker 2: going to be seen and when are we going to do. 403 00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:41,199 Speaker 15: Something in the very near future, Mike? And from my 404 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:45,320 Speaker 15: point of view that it makes it even more important 405 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:49,720 Speaker 15: I mean, obviously we're talking about a substantial increase for 406 00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:53,439 Speaker 15: defense and a plan to actually say this is what 407 00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:56,560 Speaker 15: we're doing, and here is the money for it. That 408 00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 15: is quite different from what we've seen for quite a 409 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:00,000 Speaker 15: long time. 410 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:02,840 Speaker 2: Good and not a moment too soon. Having said that 411 00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:06,960 Speaker 2: we have no money and military is expensive, it's billions. 412 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:09,639 Speaker 2: Do we have billions? Will we spend billions? Is this 413 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:10,640 Speaker 2: a billion dollar thing? 414 00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:16,640 Speaker 15: Well? Everything in defense is expensive, and clearly there are 415 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:20,720 Speaker 15: billions involved, and is simply not credible for us to 416 00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:25,119 Speaker 15: expect defense to keep on going after they've had you know, 417 00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:28,840 Speaker 15: is centrally thirty five years of every government hoping that 418 00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:30,959 Speaker 15: everything's just going to be fine and they wouldn't need 419 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:35,760 Speaker 15: to do anything. It is an enormous task to rebuild, 420 00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:37,560 Speaker 15: and our people are doing it. 421 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:39,320 Speaker 2: And so are you going to And I know you're 422 00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:40,840 Speaker 2: not going to give away because it's budgets and all 423 00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:43,440 Speaker 2: that sort of stuff, But isn't it Is it billions 424 00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:46,080 Speaker 2: over many, many many years. In other words, it's not 425 00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:47,920 Speaker 2: the here and now, or is it billions right here 426 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:50,639 Speaker 2: right now? We've got to do something fairly big. 427 00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:54,359 Speaker 15: It's a sustained effort, as what I could tell you, 428 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:57,120 Speaker 15: and it is a lot of money, it's a heap 429 00:20:57,200 --> 00:21:01,359 Speaker 15: of money, but it will also we also know that 430 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:03,240 Speaker 15: the world is changing and we also need to be 431 00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:05,560 Speaker 15: to look at that again and say do we need 432 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:06,760 Speaker 15: to do more again. 433 00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:09,640 Speaker 2: So that presumably blows out the debt and the surplus 434 00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:12,480 Speaker 2: is gone. This will budget. 435 00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:14,000 Speaker 16: No. 436 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:16,280 Speaker 15: I think it's it's actually about how we do these 437 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:21,360 Speaker 15: things and being very aware that without national security there 438 00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:24,040 Speaker 15: is no economic security. There is nothing else. 439 00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:27,400 Speaker 2: And I'm not arguing with you, it's a good thing 440 00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:29,080 Speaker 2: and it's well overdo. All I'm saying is that if 441 00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:31,200 Speaker 2: you're going to suddenly announce billions of dollars in defense, 442 00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:32,960 Speaker 2: that wasn't what we were thinking of, and then you 443 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 2: haven't got a surplus and you suddenly the debt's up 444 00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:36,400 Speaker 2: through the roof, this is what we're going to see 445 00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:38,200 Speaker 2: in the budget. Is it that dramatic or not? 446 00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:41,479 Speaker 15: I don't think you'd say it with that dramatic. I 447 00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:44,920 Speaker 15: do think, however, that because most of the CAPSUL items 448 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:49,880 Speaker 15: take some time from ordering to getting delivered and painful, 449 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:54,160 Speaker 15: but it is very important to remember that the way 450 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:57,879 Speaker 15: to end up spending the center of your budget with 451 00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:01,840 Speaker 15: GDP on defense is to different situations. You haven't spent 452 00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 15: a decent amount beforehand, and you do not hear anything 453 00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:08,360 Speaker 15: in the city, so we're very aware of it. 454 00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:11,480 Speaker 2: All right, appreciate it very much. Happy birthday. 455 00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:13,280 Speaker 15: Thak you, Mike.

Then we came to BMW the 574 00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:36,760 Speaker 2: week and who told us last week that the V 575 00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:38,640 Speaker 2: eight was going nowhere, So that was the good news. 576 00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:40,560 Speaker 2: And now they're telling us that the mini they owned 577 00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:43,479 Speaker 2: many of course the electric production of Britain that's been delayed. 578 00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:46,200 Speaker 2: They got the main plant Knox with due for expansion. 579 00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:48,880 Speaker 2: But that were so twenty twenty three, which is when 580 00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:50,880 Speaker 2: they made that announcement. Fast forward a couple of years 581 00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:56,120 Speaker 2: reality struck. They cite quote multiple uncertainties facing the automotive industry, 582 00:28:56,520 --> 00:28:58,760 Speaker 2: so the one point three billion dollar upgrade in Cowardly 583 00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:00,880 Speaker 2: that's pause. They've also turned under one hundred and thirty 584 00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:03,000 Speaker 2: million dollar grant from the government to go towards the plants, 585 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 2: so that's not happening. Meantime, Mercedes Luxury in China simply 586 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:10,520 Speaker 2: isn't working, and a localized more production in China. In 587 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:12,440 Speaker 2: the United States, most of the new models are going 588 00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:14,160 Speaker 2: for are going to be top end, but they've got 589 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:17,720 Speaker 2: a thirty percent slump and earnings last year in its 590 00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:20,080 Speaker 2: car division. This year we'll see earnings fall even further, 591 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:22,440 Speaker 2: expecting a rate of return in the car division of 592 00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:24,640 Speaker 2: just six and eight percent, So they're getting squeezed left, right, 593 00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:27,680 Speaker 2: and center. Electrics not working for anybody, so they're going 594 00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:30,560 Speaker 2: down the hybrid route and keeping the V eights and 595 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:33,280 Speaker 2: the beginning in cars because guess what, that's actually what 596 00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:36,440 Speaker 2: people want. That's where you get a Rivian. Rivian announced 597 00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:41,280 Speaker 2: over the weekend they did better than they thought, but 598 00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:43,640 Speaker 2: it's still dire and a lot of their money three 599 00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:46,520 Speaker 2: hundred million dollars came from the sale of regular tree credits, 600 00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 2: so it's not actually cars it's just you know, saying 601 00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:51,880 Speaker 2: your environmental and somebody else goes and buys your credits. 602 00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:54,560 Speaker 2: It's nuts money. We want more of it. Even got 603 00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:56,520 Speaker 2: some money. David Seymour is going to change some rules 604 00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:57,000 Speaker 2: to get us some. 605 00:29:57,080 --> 00:30:01,040 Speaker 1: He's next the Breakfast Show, Kiwi's Trust to Stay in 606 00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:04,800 Speaker 1: the Now, the Mike hosting Breakfast with Bailey's real Estate 607 00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:07,880 Speaker 1: finding the buyers others can't use Togsdad. 608 00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:09,320 Speaker 2: B Welling seven past seven to the government going to 609 00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:11,760 Speaker 2: be more welcoming to foreign investment by amending the Overseas 610 00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 2: Investment Act. Unless it's residential, farmland or fish quota, we 611 00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:17,200 Speaker 2: will one look to say yes to do it within 612 00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:20,200 Speaker 2: fifteen days. The Associate Finance Minister David Seymore's with us, 613 00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:23,240 Speaker 2: good morning, Good well anyway, how come this has taken 614 00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:23,640 Speaker 2: so long? 615 00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:26,400 Speaker 21: Well, we've gone through. 616 00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:29,720 Speaker 5: A process of basically speeding up everything we can within 617 00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:32,560 Speaker 5: the current law. So when I got this job started 618 00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 5: last year, I issued a new letter to the OO saying, look, 619 00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:38,800 Speaker 5: you've got to do it in half your seventy day timeframe. 620 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:42,680 Speaker 5: They're now doing that ninety six percent of the time. Meanwhile, 621 00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:46,000 Speaker 5: we've been going through cabinet getting everyone signed up and 622 00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:50,440 Speaker 5: agreed on changes to the law itself. That's now agreed 623 00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:53,280 Speaker 5: and we're going to put it through Parliament this year, 624 00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:56,640 Speaker 5: so that's a two year process over all. So over 625 00:30:56,720 --> 00:31:00,520 Speaker 5: all the way that we do overseas investment. It'd be 626 00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:04,479 Speaker 5: great if we could be like Malay or maybe Trump 627 00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:08,280 Speaker 5: and just announce it and make it so, but there's 628 00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:11,680 Speaker 5: the reality of a coalition government and a parliamentary democracy. 629 00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:14,560 Speaker 2: How much money actually comes in that's not residential or 630 00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:15,520 Speaker 2: farm or fishing. 631 00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:22,320 Speaker 5: It's in the billions, for sure. It goes through businesses 632 00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:26,360 Speaker 5: rather than necessarily land fishing quota as a relatively minor thing. 633 00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:29,440 Speaker 5: There's only so much of it. But what's important is 634 00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:33,160 Speaker 5: that relative to other countries, we're twenty six out of 635 00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:36,840 Speaker 5: thirty four are WECD countries monitored, and that sounds okay, 636 00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:40,840 Speaker 5: we're still eight people worse. Is probably not because the US, 637 00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:44,560 Speaker 5: for example, well, I mean, you know, it could be worse. 638 00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:47,160 Speaker 5: But one thing you've got to recognize is that if 639 00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:50,200 Speaker 5: the US you've got a huge internal market. You know, 640 00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:53,000 Speaker 5: even Australia has a lot more capital inside its borders. 641 00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:55,240 Speaker 5: So we can't afford to be in the bottom half. 642 00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:56,520 Speaker 5: We've got to be in the top ten. 643 00:31:56,720 --> 00:32:00,280 Speaker 2: Couldn't agree more? Could it be? Though? Like tourism, Yes 644 00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:02,480 Speaker 2: we're open, but people decide not to come and we 645 00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:03,800 Speaker 2: know where near where we should be. 646 00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:07,520 Speaker 5: Well, I totally agree. There's a bunch of other things 647 00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:09,840 Speaker 5: we've got to do. So for example, when it can 648 00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:12,480 Speaker 5: take twenty eight years to get a rem a consent 649 00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:15,200 Speaker 5: for one supermarket, that's going to be a big barrier 650 00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:18,800 Speaker 5: to say, getting another supermarket competitor and getting prices down. 651 00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:23,000 Speaker 5: But the government is also replacing the Resource Management Act 652 00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:25,720 Speaker 5: with a law based on property rights. We're also fixing 653 00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:28,840 Speaker 5: up for a lot of work around labor laws to 654 00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 5: make it easier to actually employ people. So the government 655 00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:33,880 Speaker 5: is doing across the board a bunch of stuff that 656 00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:35,960 Speaker 5: will make it easier to do business in this country. 657 00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:38,880 Speaker 5: The part that I'm responsible for, at least we're talking 658 00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:43,600 Speaker 5: about today, is the regulations about getting foreign investment in 659 00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:47,080 Speaker 5: and basically we're going to say, look, as long as 660 00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:52,720 Speaker 5: there's no farmland, fishing quota or residential housing, then if 661 00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:55,800 Speaker 5: it's ofrastructure or business or whatever, then we're going to 662 00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:57,280 Speaker 5: do it within fifteen days. 663 00:32:57,320 --> 00:32:59,200 Speaker 2: Fantastic good to talk to you appreciate it very much. 664 00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:02,000 Speaker 2: David see more these Asociate Finance Minister. It's ten past seven, 665 00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:05,240 Speaker 2: asking increasing is it just me? But is there an 666 00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:08,280 Speaker 2: increasing sense of desperation in this country. We've got this 667 00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:11,840 Speaker 2: interesting mix at the moment whereby allegedly the economy is 668 00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 2: starting to come right and we might see something good 669 00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:15,080 Speaker 2: by the end of the year. But at the same 670 00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:18,400 Speaker 2: time the Chinese have arrived, we're begging for money, the 671 00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:21,920 Speaker 2: National Airlines buggered. It's got a weird vibe about it 672 00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:23,720 Speaker 2: at the moment. Police are having trouble with their phones 673 00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:26,600 Speaker 2: as well, which probably won't surprise you. Target of answering 674 00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:29,800 Speaker 2: seventy percent of non emergency calls within ninety seconds, they're 675 00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:32,360 Speaker 2: not at seventy by the way, that at seventeen average 676 00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:34,240 Speaker 2: time at six minutes and thirty six seconds. So now 677 00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:38,040 Speaker 2: they've dropped that target, they'll focus on customer satisfaction. Police 678 00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:40,960 Speaker 2: Director of Service Superintendent Bleir McDonald's with us. Blair. Morning 679 00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:44,000 Speaker 2: to you, Mardien and Mike caw Are you I'm very 680 00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:46,040 Speaker 2: well in do these non emergency calls? What sort of 681 00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:46,760 Speaker 2: thing are they after? 682 00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:51,239 Speaker 16: Well, look at a really broader church of things that 683 00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:54,320 Speaker 16: members of the public can come to us for typically 684 00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:58,240 Speaker 16: it is to report some type of low level property crime. 685 00:33:58,800 --> 00:34:04,120 Speaker 16: We do men very minor family harm matters, they can 686 00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:06,440 Speaker 16: report that to us. But also some people just ring 687 00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:08,360 Speaker 16: us because they might be confused, they want to know 688 00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:10,560 Speaker 16: what the time is. Look how our staff have to 689 00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:13,640 Speaker 16: be very agile and we're almost Google for the police, 690 00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:14,799 Speaker 16: is how I like to describe it. 691 00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:17,160 Speaker 2: That's why I asked the question at these just idiots 692 00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:17,839 Speaker 2: wasting your time? 693 00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:22,680 Speaker 16: No, not really, Like I said, we are definitely a 694 00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:26,080 Speaker 16: gatekeeper to our organization, and we do we have a 695 00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:29,600 Speaker 16: big open end of the funnel. So when people contact us, 696 00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:31,960 Speaker 16: we try to identify, oh, actually this should go through 697 00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:33,359 Speaker 16: to one way and one you actually need to see 698 00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:36,400 Speaker 16: a police officer right now, so hey, we can actually 699 00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:36,920 Speaker 16: help you with that. 700 00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:40,279 Speaker 2: Okay, what is customer satisfaction and how are you going 701 00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:40,879 Speaker 2: to measure it? 702 00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:42,680 Speaker 14: Well? 703 00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:45,879 Speaker 16: For us, we've learned over the last two years through 704 00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:48,920 Speaker 16: our Voice of the Customer that if a member of 705 00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:52,719 Speaker 16: the public rings us and they feel understood, listen to that, 706 00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:55,279 Speaker 16: We've understood the information that I've provided us, and the 707 00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:58,920 Speaker 16: most importantly, that we've given them a really clear expectation 708 00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:01,680 Speaker 16: about what police will do with that. Next that drives 709 00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:03,360 Speaker 16: our customer satisfaction. 710 00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:06,200 Speaker 2: Okay, when will we know whether this is any better 711 00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:07,960 Speaker 2: than what we previously had, which hasn't worked. 712 00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:11,839 Speaker 16: Oh look, i'd argue, at the moment we know that 713 00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:15,239 Speaker 16: now we've seen a massive increase in the amount of 714 00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:18,840 Speaker 16: contact that police have now was the public. It's really 715 00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:22,120 Speaker 16: fascinating that and I've only been in this wrong four months, 716 00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:26,840 Speaker 16: but I've learned that between us and one one one, 717 00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:29,600 Speaker 16: we make up almost eighty percent of all contacts with 718 00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:32,200 Speaker 16: members of the public, and for most of us, we 719 00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:34,840 Speaker 16: would assume that actually most contacts haven't been at a 720 00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:37,880 Speaker 16: police station, or would frontline police officer. We're actually eighty 721 00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:40,800 Speaker 16: percent of that volume and touch point the community. 722 00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:42,920 Speaker 2: All right, Blair, appreciate it very much. Blair McDonald. That 723 00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:45,439 Speaker 2: doesn't surprise me at all when you say you would 724 00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:47,600 Speaker 2: assume that most contacts at a police station. Find me 725 00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:49,560 Speaker 2: a police station. I mean, most people will have a 726 00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:52,040 Speaker 2: clue what the local police station is. Having said that, 727 00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:54,759 Speaker 2: if you just want the time in ringing the police, 728 00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:57,760 Speaker 2: do you mind waiting six minutes and thirty six seconds? 729 00:35:57,760 --> 00:35:59,719 Speaker 2: My guess is if you're the sort of person who 730 00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:02,600 Speaker 2: thinks that ringing the police to ask the time, you've 731 00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:05,720 Speaker 2: probably got six minutes and thirty six seconds on your hands, 732 00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:09,240 Speaker 2: thirteen past, seven past, because it's two only six percent 733 00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:10,880 Speaker 2: of federal workers in the US actually go to the 734 00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:14,600 Speaker 2: office buildings left empty. No, it's six percent of Washington 735 00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:17,000 Speaker 2: as in the city, not the state. But having been 736 00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:19,720 Speaker 2: to San Francisco, wouldn't surprise me that it's there as well. 737 00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:23,439 Speaker 2: Rents numbers in this morning national median weekly rents gone 738 00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:27,200 Speaker 2: up ten dollars on average in January. Supply of rental 739 00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:29,920 Speaker 2: listings is up as well, so that's interesting. So maybe 740 00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:33,400 Speaker 2: over time of theory holds true, red's going to go 741 00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:35,759 Speaker 2: down again. Anyway, A number of rental listings are up 742 00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:39,000 Speaker 2: thirteen percent, so way more listings up forty percent year 743 00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:42,400 Speaker 2: on year. Auckland's up thirteen percent, Wellington twenty two percent, 744 00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:46,160 Speaker 2: Canterbury up five percent. Taranaki biggest increase in rent gone 745 00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:47,920 Speaker 2: up six percent just in the month. You're paying six 746 00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:50,960 Speaker 2: hundred and twenty a week in Taranaki. Wellington three point 747 00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:53,319 Speaker 2: eight percent, up at six seventy five, which makes it 748 00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:56,560 Speaker 2: more expensive than Auckland now six seventy Canterbury up two 749 00:36:56,560 --> 00:36:59,040 Speaker 2: point seventy five. Eighty fourteen past. 750 00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:05,360 Speaker 1: The high asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered 751 00:37:05,360 --> 00:37:08,400 Speaker 1: by News Talks ABOV. 752 00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:10,439 Speaker 2: We will go to Rome and Joe McKenna just before 753 00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:12,480 Speaker 2: right there holding a press conference or due to hold 754 00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:15,200 Speaker 2: a press conference of the Vatican any second now from 755 00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:17,440 Speaker 2: Cash for tell, who's the man in charge of THEI 756 00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:21,800 Speaker 2: FBI personnel may have received an email requesting information. The FBI, 757 00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:23,799 Speaker 2: through the Office of the Director, is in charge of 758 00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:26,239 Speaker 2: all of our review processes, and we'll conduct reviews in 759 00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:29,000 Speaker 2: accordance with the FBI procedures. When and if further information 760 00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:31,720 Speaker 2: is required, we will coordinate the responses for now, Please 761 00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:36,480 Speaker 2: pause any responses, So that's stuck it right up. Elon moontime, 762 00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:38,960 Speaker 2: I note that Genesis has in the power company strong 763 00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:42,600 Speaker 2: first half result, and there these power companies are starting 764 00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:45,920 Speaker 2: to get into the business of banks, because all very 765 00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:50,279 Speaker 2: well to be profitable, and we love profitability. But we 766 00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:53,200 Speaker 2: paid for that profitability last winter when we couldn't turn 767 00:37:53,239 --> 00:37:54,839 Speaker 2: the lights on and they were pumping coal light there 768 00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:57,839 Speaker 2: was no tomorrow and the spot rate went through the roof. 769 00:37:58,200 --> 00:38:00,239 Speaker 2: So part of the spot rate suddenly you gained from. 770 00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:01,680 Speaker 2: And then a couple of months later you go Hey, 771 00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:03,640 Speaker 2: look at how much money we made. So it's all 772 00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:07,000 Speaker 2: very well to be profitable, fantastic, but at what level 773 00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:09,759 Speaker 2: of profitability do we the consumer suddenly go will hold 774 00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:11,520 Speaker 2: on my power bills too much? And you guys are 775 00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:14,399 Speaker 2: clearly milking it out the other end. Then I come 776 00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:18,080 Speaker 2: to hospitality. Little Sammy was out over the weekend. He 777 00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:19,960 Speaker 2: was on Wahiki Island, which is an island off the 778 00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:23,320 Speaker 2: coast of Auckland. All the vineyards closed at six o'clock. 779 00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:25,759 Speaker 2: This is this ongoing debate around regional New Zealand that 780 00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:28,480 Speaker 2: if you, I don't know, just kept the door open 781 00:38:28,760 --> 00:38:30,960 Speaker 2: you might get some custom. So he turns up at 782 00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:33,440 Speaker 2: these vineyards at six o'clock, not open or closed. But 783 00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:36,880 Speaker 2: by summer summer time, it's still light, it's still warm. 784 00:38:37,080 --> 00:38:39,319 Speaker 2: You want a veno, but no, why would we want 785 00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:41,160 Speaker 2: to serve you or indeed be open for business in 786 00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:43,080 Speaker 2: the middle of summer, in the middle of the tourist season, 787 00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:46,600 Speaker 2: when we can close at six o'clock. Meantime, my experience Friday, 788 00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:50,080 Speaker 2: we're out in a sort of a strip of restaurants, 789 00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:53,680 Speaker 2: four or five different restaurants. I have never seen more 790 00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:55,719 Speaker 2: people in my life now, I told you the story 791 00:38:55,760 --> 00:38:58,160 Speaker 2: in the country. A couple of weeks ago, we try 792 00:38:58,200 --> 00:39:00,239 Speaker 2: and book. They can't book. For love nor money. They're 793 00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:03,440 Speaker 2: booked out weeks literally in this particular case, weeks in advance. 794 00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:05,680 Speaker 2: We go to another place the next day. They were 795 00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:08,000 Speaker 2: booked out the previous night. They're booked out that night. 796 00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:09,480 Speaker 2: They don't want to do with it. They're running out 797 00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:11,480 Speaker 2: of ingredients, and they've got so many people coming in. 798 00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:14,759 Speaker 2: Friday night, we're out and we're sitting outside. And this, 799 00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:16,839 Speaker 2: by the way, because we eat dinner early, we were 800 00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:18,799 Speaker 2: with other people and we try not to be too 801 00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:21,600 Speaker 2: abnormal with other people, and so we said, how about 802 00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:24,320 Speaker 2: five thirty. So we got away with five thirty. 803 00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:25,960 Speaker 21: So I don't like to understake too much with the 804 00:39:26,040 --> 00:39:26,640 Speaker 21: late lunches. 805 00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:30,319 Speaker 2: No exactly. So anyway, five thirty at this restaurant that 806 00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:34,200 Speaker 2: holds I'm guessing one hundred plus people. At five thirty 807 00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:37,400 Speaker 2: on a Friday evening, you cannot move. There are people 808 00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:41,239 Speaker 2: standing on the footpath with no bookings, pleading to get 809 00:39:41,239 --> 00:39:44,400 Speaker 2: into this place. You go down the strip, restaurant after restaurant, 810 00:39:44,440 --> 00:39:46,400 Speaker 2: after read about four or five on the strip, you 811 00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:49,720 Speaker 2: can't breathe. There are so many people drinking so many beers, 812 00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:53,799 Speaker 2: having so many metsa platters, ordering so many pizzas, And 813 00:39:53,840 --> 00:39:56,880 Speaker 2: I'm thinking to myself, who is it in hospitality that 814 00:39:56,960 --> 00:39:59,839 Speaker 2: isn't doing well? And what is it they're doing apart 815 00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:03,080 Speaker 2: from being closed that means you're not doing well. People 816 00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:07,480 Speaker 2: clearly are desperate to spend money, because that's what I'm seeing. 817 00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:10,240 Speaker 2: All I'm seeing when I go out periodically and dipping 818 00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:12,400 Speaker 2: my toe to the world of hospitality is one, I 819 00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:16,880 Speaker 2: can't get a table. Two there are just people just 820 00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:19,320 Speaker 2: desperate to unload their dough So I don't know what's 821 00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:22,279 Speaker 2: going on. And that's before you get to the fact 822 00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:23,839 Speaker 2: it takes you six and a half minutes to ask 823 00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:26,240 Speaker 2: the police for the time, and the Chinese have arrived. 824 00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:27,839 Speaker 2: So it's a weird world.

Hosking, seven twenty three. 846 00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:34,840 Speaker 2: I'm sad to report that Winston Peters is wrong. His 847 00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:37,759 Speaker 2: thinking that the Pacific Favors friendship has been proven naive. 848 00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:40,800 Speaker 2: As I've always said, checkbooks win and we don't have 849 00:41:40,840 --> 00:41:43,880 Speaker 2: a checkbook. And even his goodwill gesture in twenty seventeen 850 00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:46,000 Speaker 2: when he lined up alongside Labor and handed out that 851 00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:49,600 Speaker 2: billion dollars has proven wayfully short. The Chinese have shown 852 00:41:49,640 --> 00:41:51,560 Speaker 2: over the weekend the world is changing and in a 853 00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:54,680 Speaker 2: dramatic way. And we haven't even mentioned the word Trump yet. 854 00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:57,279 Speaker 2: The Cook's deal is about mining the sea bed. It's 855 00:41:57,280 --> 00:41:59,120 Speaker 2: about things at great depth and the ocean that are 856 00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:01,280 Speaker 2: worth a fortune in the Chi want their hands on it. Meantime, 857 00:42:01,280 --> 00:42:04,480 Speaker 2: the Chinese Navy's arrived locally. Of course, we're busy diverting 858 00:42:04,520 --> 00:42:07,040 Speaker 2: planes while having no idea while they've done what they've done. 859 00:42:07,280 --> 00:42:10,040 Speaker 2: Best reasoning I've seen so far is from McK ryan, 860 00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:12,560 Speaker 2: who appears on this program periodically. His ex military and 861 00:42:12,560 --> 00:42:15,840 Speaker 2: a great thinker. He's deeply worried, and if he is, 862 00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:18,880 Speaker 2: we should be as well. His theory as the Chinese 863 00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:21,440 Speaker 2: reminding Australia that you might want to stay local instead 864 00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:23,920 Speaker 2: of wandering off and doing your exercises and places like oh, 865 00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:27,320 Speaker 2: I don't know Taiwan. If you don't know what's coming 866 00:42:27,680 --> 00:42:31,360 Speaker 2: and when you stay local makes sense. They're sending a message. 867 00:42:31,480 --> 00:42:35,040 Speaker 2: Is it legal? Yes, international waters, international law. Nothing's been 868 00:42:35,040 --> 00:42:37,560 Speaker 2: broken apart from the fact they're route by not letting 869 00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:39,839 Speaker 2: anybody know. But then that's the point. Of course. There's 870 00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:43,240 Speaker 2: also a sense that some sort of picking of sides 871 00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:46,360 Speaker 2: is coming orcus or no orcus oh, we might like 872 00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:48,400 Speaker 2: to think about that as well. We might also like 873 00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:50,959 Speaker 2: to look at our defense forces of Judith Collins mentioned 874 00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:53,759 Speaker 2: earlier on the program, and wonder yet again if we've 875 00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:55,560 Speaker 2: tried our luck on just a little bit long and 876 00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:58,839 Speaker 2: what's left of what we might need needs a bit 877 00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:01,080 Speaker 2: of dough spending on it. But as for the Pacific, 878 00:43:01,239 --> 00:43:03,239 Speaker 2: Mark Brown will say nice things, of course he will. 879 00:43:03,239 --> 00:43:06,000 Speaker 2: But money talks, and it has talked. The Pacific generally 880 00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:08,919 Speaker 2: are being or have been bought off by Chinese money, 881 00:43:08,920 --> 00:43:12,240 Speaker 2: whether it's security like the Solomon's or mining like the Cook's. 882 00:43:12,640 --> 00:43:16,800 Speaker 2: Friendship doesn't solve any of it. Asking speaking of the Chinese, 883 00:43:16,840 --> 00:43:18,239 Speaker 2: I don't know if you note over the weekend that 884 00:43:18,280 --> 00:43:21,400 Speaker 2: the main opposition and party in Hong Kong, they've announced 885 00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:26,960 Speaker 2: plans to dissolve Democratic Party, once the largest opposition group 886 00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:29,399 Speaker 2: in all of Hong Kong. Members are going to vote 887 00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:31,719 Speaker 2: on a final decision thirty one years they've been doing this, 888 00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:33,880 Speaker 2: but the Chinese have basically changed the rules to the 889 00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:36,200 Speaker 2: point where you can't bet. It's called the Patriots Law 890 00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:38,840 Speaker 2: was passed in Hong Kong and twenty twenty one and 891 00:43:38,920 --> 00:43:41,520 Speaker 2: sures only people regarded as loyal to the communist regime 892 00:43:41,560 --> 00:43:43,880 Speaker 2: and Beijing can serve as law makers a local councilors 893 00:43:44,600 --> 00:43:47,040 Speaker 2: in Hong Kong. So that's Hong Kong, bugget thanks for coming. 894 00:43:49,920 --> 00:43:55,000 Speaker 2: Glenn's out and the Bay of plenty. He's watching tables 895 00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:56,919 Speaker 2: getting turned over left, right and center. He's never seen 896 00:43:56,960 --> 00:43:58,799 Speaker 2: anything like it. He's and there's having a long wheel. 897 00:43:58,840 --> 00:44:01,200 Speaker 2: That's Glenn. Glenn's a slow eat, a slow walker. So 898 00:44:01,239 --> 00:44:01,640 Speaker 2: he's there for. 899 00:44:01,640 --> 00:44:03,560 Speaker 21: Several It takes you a long time to decide what 900 00:44:03,640 --> 00:44:07,600 Speaker 21: you want. They keep wanting to take your order, us 901 00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:09,719 Speaker 21: another cup of you, give me another drink while I 902 00:44:09,760 --> 00:44:10,400 Speaker 21: think about. 903 00:44:10,160 --> 00:44:13,719 Speaker 2: It, turning over table after table after table. Something's I mean, 904 00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:15,600 Speaker 2: it's this is all good, don't get me wrong, this 905 00:44:15,680 --> 00:44:18,920 Speaker 2: is fantastic. But all I'm hearing from the organizations that 906 00:44:18,960 --> 00:44:23,600 Speaker 2: allegedly represent HOSPO is no one's doing any business. Doors 907 00:44:23,640 --> 00:44:26,840 Speaker 2: are closed, and it's miserable. I'm not seeing it. Glenn's 908 00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:30,080 Speaker 2: not seeing it. Sam is. But that's because why hecky's 909 00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:31,719 Speaker 2: a world and to itself and they don't want to 910 00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:34,239 Speaker 2: open for any sort of business. Grock three. We told 911 00:44:34,239 --> 00:44:37,040 Speaker 2: you about just quickly. This is Elon's weird thinking. This 912 00:44:37,160 --> 00:44:40,560 Speaker 2: is Grock three. So who So you asked Groc three 913 00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:42,560 Speaker 2: and he said it was ten times smarter than anything 914 00:44:42,560 --> 00:44:44,880 Speaker 2: else in AI. So the question was asked, who are 915 00:44:44,880 --> 00:44:47,360 Speaker 2: the top five people? Are groups spreading disinformation on X? 916 00:44:48,160 --> 00:44:51,360 Speaker 2: They asked Grock three. The response was Elon Musk, this 917 00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:54,560 Speaker 2: has gone viral, as you can imagine. The response came 918 00:44:54,600 --> 00:44:57,440 Speaker 2: back because it's ten times smarter than anything else and 919 00:44:57,520 --> 00:45:02,400 Speaker 2: AI Elon Musk, Donald Trump, Robert F. Kennedy Junior, Alex Jones, 920 00:45:02,440 --> 00:45:03,160 Speaker 2: and Artie. 921 00:45:03,560 --> 00:45:05,160 Speaker 21: So maybe it is ten times smart. 922 00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:07,759 Speaker 2: Yeah, pretty bright after all? Really, I having said that, 923 00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:10,160 Speaker 2: I could probably have told you that the Germans. The 924 00:45:10,160 --> 00:45:12,439 Speaker 2: big question is not the result, because the result has 925 00:45:12,480 --> 00:45:16,000 Speaker 2: you was exactly as they predicted. Question is if you're 926 00:45:16,040 --> 00:45:19,640 Speaker 2: not going to do business with the AfD, which allegedly 927 00:45:19,640 --> 00:45:22,000 Speaker 2: they're not, who are you going to do business with? 928 00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:25,440 Speaker 2: And if you can't do business with anyone? Are we 929 00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:27,400 Speaker 2: going to ever have a government in Germany? 930 00:45:28,560 --> 00:45:32,640 Speaker 1: Your source of freaking news, challenging opinion and honored backs 931 00:45:32,920 --> 00:45:37,440 Speaker 1: The Mike Hosking Breakfast with a Vita Retirement Communities Life, 932 00:45:37,600 --> 00:45:39,040 Speaker 1: Your Way News, togsad B. 933 00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:41,240 Speaker 2: Being a feel for it, Samon Meth and Mike's sons 934 00:45:41,280 --> 00:45:43,920 Speaker 2: out enjoying food and drink at five thirty good Places 935 00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:46,279 Speaker 2: of Booming Mic and not just Auckland was in christ 936 00:45:46,360 --> 00:45:49,120 Speaker 2: Dutch last week Thursday night, New Regent Streets. Struggled to 937 00:45:49,160 --> 00:45:51,880 Speaker 2: get in anywhere. Place was absolutely packed. This is the 938 00:45:51,920 --> 00:45:54,880 Speaker 2: conclusion I'm coming to. I think we're finding out. The 939 00:45:54,920 --> 00:45:56,799 Speaker 2: reality is if you're not up to much and you 940 00:45:56,840 --> 00:45:58,759 Speaker 2: can't be bothered opening and the service is a bit 941 00:45:58,840 --> 00:46:01,320 Speaker 2: crap and the food's no good and the prices people 942 00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:05,040 Speaker 2: will pay for quality Mike restaurant owner here. People are 943 00:46:05,080 --> 00:46:07,839 Speaker 2: still spending, but being more selective about where and where 944 00:46:07,880 --> 00:46:09,960 Speaker 2: they spend. If they're only going to go out for 945 00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:11,400 Speaker 2: a meal once a week, they wanted to be the 946 00:46:11,400 --> 00:46:13,640 Speaker 2: absolute best they can afford. And I think that's probably true. 947 00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:15,680 Speaker 2: But there's nothing wrong with that. Twenty three minutes away 948 00:46:15,680 --> 00:46:20,560 Speaker 2: from eight great weekend of sport, Andrew Stable Jason Plain 949 00:46:20,600 --> 00:46:22,960 Speaker 2: with us after eight o'clock meantime. Back to the German election. 950 00:46:23,160 --> 00:46:25,680 Speaker 2: Are they've been voting. Although it's a cliche, it feels 951 00:46:25,800 --> 00:46:27,799 Speaker 2: like one of the most consequential elections in a very 952 00:46:27,800 --> 00:46:30,759 Speaker 2: long time. Odds on favorite to try and be chancellors 953 00:46:30,760 --> 00:46:34,760 Speaker 2: Frederick Mertz of the Christian Democrat Union CDU. Anyway, Torsten 954 00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:37,040 Speaker 2: Benner is co founder and director of the Global Public 955 00:46:37,080 --> 00:46:39,680 Speaker 2: Policy Institute in Berlin, and as will us, very good 956 00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:40,080 Speaker 2: morning to. 957 00:46:40,120 --> 00:46:42,600 Speaker 14: You, wonderful good morning, Mike. 958 00:46:42,800 --> 00:46:45,240 Speaker 2: So the numbers come out the way everyone I assume 959 00:46:45,280 --> 00:46:47,279 Speaker 2: I'm correct and saying that's the way most people thought 960 00:46:47,280 --> 00:46:50,120 Speaker 2: they were going to. How do they form a government 961 00:46:50,160 --> 00:46:51,400 Speaker 2: and who do they form it with? 962 00:46:53,600 --> 00:46:54,759 Speaker 14: That's the big open question. 963 00:46:54,840 --> 00:46:59,440 Speaker 22: Indeed, no you surprises in the results so far, except 964 00:46:59,480 --> 00:47:01,920 Speaker 22: for a meal need surge of the Left party that 965 00:47:02,560 --> 00:47:06,799 Speaker 22: very few expected that way. But the big question now 966 00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:09,400 Speaker 22: is it's too early. It's too early to call and 967 00:47:09,440 --> 00:47:11,800 Speaker 22: too close to call whether two of the smaller parties 968 00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:15,759 Speaker 22: make the five percent threshold. If they indeed pass the 969 00:47:15,960 --> 00:47:19,640 Speaker 22: five percent threshold, that means that we need three government, 970 00:47:19,840 --> 00:47:23,160 Speaker 22: three parties to form a collision that will be protracted. 971 00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:26,120 Speaker 22: Will take quite a long time. If they don't make it, 972 00:47:26,640 --> 00:47:30,960 Speaker 22: then I think the odds are that Fredchmetz, the chancer, 973 00:47:31,400 --> 00:47:35,160 Speaker 22: the new chancellor, can govern with the outgoing Social Democrats. 974 00:47:35,360 --> 00:47:37,040 Speaker 2: Okay, So let's just work through a couple of the 975 00:47:37,080 --> 00:47:40,080 Speaker 2: issues for people that don't necessarily follow the CDUCSU twenty 976 00:47:40,160 --> 00:47:42,560 Speaker 2: nine percent. They're on the box seat. The parties you 977 00:47:42,600 --> 00:47:45,160 Speaker 2: refer to, I think are the BSW and the FDP 978 00:47:45,920 --> 00:47:48,200 Speaker 2: four point seven exactly your four point seven and four 979 00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:51,440 Speaker 2: point nine percent. Who are they and what sort of 980 00:47:51,560 --> 00:47:54,560 Speaker 2: policies do they offer and how closely aligned to the 981 00:47:54,600 --> 00:47:57,480 Speaker 2: CDU see SU are they. 982 00:47:58,160 --> 00:48:02,040 Speaker 22: The FDP is a liberal pro business party and bs 983 00:48:02,200 --> 00:48:04,879 Speaker 22: W is a new party that hasn't been and it's 984 00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:09,279 Speaker 22: a party formed by a former Left Party member who 985 00:48:10,360 --> 00:48:15,239 Speaker 22: pursues some sort of pro Kremlin, anti walk but kind 986 00:48:15,239 --> 00:48:19,320 Speaker 22: of pro social welfare issues agenda. 987 00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:24,759 Speaker 2: Wow, that sounds confusing the SPD and Schultz does he is? He? 988 00:48:24,920 --> 00:48:29,520 Speaker 22: Well, national social has been a tradition in Germany, kind 989 00:48:29,520 --> 00:48:30,279 Speaker 22: of marrying the two. 990 00:48:30,280 --> 00:48:34,880 Speaker 2: But anyway, Yeah, so the SPD. Is Shultz happy to 991 00:48:34,880 --> 00:48:36,800 Speaker 2: go from being chancellor to the third wheel. 992 00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:40,359 Speaker 14: No, No, it's clear that Charlets is out. 993 00:48:40,680 --> 00:48:43,080 Speaker 22: He said, like he will not join a new government. 994 00:48:43,239 --> 00:48:45,880 Speaker 22: It's not like in New Zealand sometimes you know, the 995 00:48:46,560 --> 00:48:49,760 Speaker 22: foreign ministers, the former prime minister whatever, like those things 996 00:48:49,760 --> 00:48:51,880 Speaker 22: don't happen usually in Germany. 997 00:48:51,960 --> 00:48:53,440 Speaker 14: He's into retirement. 998 00:48:53,760 --> 00:48:59,440 Speaker 22: Uh, and then it's a new cast of leaders maybe 999 00:48:59,600 --> 00:49:04,399 Speaker 22: for this Social Democrats. Their result is disastrous. They lost 1000 00:49:04,440 --> 00:49:08,400 Speaker 22: about ten percent, so there might well be a leadership 1001 00:49:08,520 --> 00:49:13,240 Speaker 22: upheaval also in the party beyond shots, you know, saying 1002 00:49:13,320 --> 00:49:16,080 Speaker 22: that he will not join a new government. 1003 00:49:16,239 --> 00:49:18,239 Speaker 2: But at twenty nine percent, I'm just doing the rough 1004 00:49:18,280 --> 00:49:20,480 Speaker 2: math here. The CDUC is here at twenty nine percent. 1005 00:49:20,520 --> 00:49:22,399 Speaker 2: Even if they go with the ESPD at sixteen, there's 1006 00:49:22,400 --> 00:49:24,440 Speaker 2: still not fifty. Is that a minority government. 1007 00:49:25,400 --> 00:49:26,920 Speaker 14: No, it's not a minority government. 1008 00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:30,480 Speaker 2: It's the two other gods. Are you talking about a 1009 00:49:30,040 --> 00:49:32,319 Speaker 2: five party four party. 1010 00:49:33,640 --> 00:49:34,080 Speaker 14: Exactly? 1011 00:49:34,480 --> 00:49:38,279 Speaker 22: So if if they don't, if they don't make it 1012 00:49:38,600 --> 00:49:41,960 Speaker 22: into parliament, but that's they will not govern with the CDU, 1013 00:49:42,040 --> 00:49:45,440 Speaker 22: then these two small parties the government will then be 1014 00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:53,400 Speaker 22: most likely either CDU Social Democrats Green or CDU Social Democrats, 1015 00:49:53,400 --> 00:49:56,279 Speaker 22: and this liberal party BSW will not. 1016 00:49:56,320 --> 00:49:59,400 Speaker 14: Be in government. But anyway, we're talking a lot about 1017 00:49:59,440 --> 00:50:00,000 Speaker 14: the options. 1018 00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:04,280 Speaker 22: But I think it's it's really important that new government 1019 00:50:04,320 --> 00:50:06,759 Speaker 22: has its work cut out for it. We need to 1020 00:50:06,920 --> 00:50:12,120 Speaker 22: invest massively into security spending. With Donald Trump pulling the 1021 00:50:12,200 --> 00:50:16,880 Speaker 22: rug from under our feet and put in advancing on us. 1022 00:50:16,480 --> 00:50:18,600 Speaker 2: But isn't that the point? Isn't that the point if 1023 00:50:18,680 --> 00:50:20,680 Speaker 2: if you've got some sort of jerry manned three or 1024 00:50:20,680 --> 00:50:24,319 Speaker 2: four party coalition, can they agree on anything substintive like 1025 00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:26,160 Speaker 2: you know the issues you've just right, Yeah. 1026 00:50:26,400 --> 00:50:28,720 Speaker 14: It will be, as you know, will be very tough. 1027 00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:34,760 Speaker 22: And and and the past government fell because it couldn't 1028 00:50:34,800 --> 00:50:40,920 Speaker 22: agree on a solid fiscal base to kind of agree 1029 00:50:40,960 --> 00:50:42,360 Speaker 22: on spending goals. 1030 00:50:43,040 --> 00:50:45,480 Speaker 14: It won't be easy for a three party coalition. 1031 00:50:45,560 --> 00:50:48,719 Speaker 22: For a two party coalition, I think it might well 1032 00:50:48,800 --> 00:50:51,800 Speaker 22: be in the cards that it's somewhat easier. 1033 00:50:51,960 --> 00:50:55,439 Speaker 2: Can we definitely one hundred percent hand on hard rule 1034 00:50:55,520 --> 00:50:56,640 Speaker 2: out a deal with the i f D? 1035 00:50:58,719 --> 00:51:02,000 Speaker 22: Well, I can't, you know, I would say ninety nine 1036 00:51:02,000 --> 00:51:05,720 Speaker 22: point nine percent or one hundred percent, because that will 1037 00:51:05,800 --> 00:51:08,040 Speaker 22: you know, if Rider him out does that for the 1038 00:51:08,120 --> 00:51:13,360 Speaker 22: Christian Democrats, he'll instantly split his party, I think, because 1039 00:51:13,680 --> 00:51:17,840 Speaker 22: there's many in the Christian Democratic Union that would object 1040 00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:20,360 Speaker 22: to such a move, and they would you know, that 1041 00:51:20,400 --> 00:51:23,239 Speaker 22: would achieve the very goal of this extreme right wing 1042 00:51:23,280 --> 00:51:27,840 Speaker 22: AfD party. They want to split the Christian Democratic Union 1043 00:51:27,920 --> 00:51:28,520 Speaker 22: as a party. 1044 00:51:28,719 --> 00:51:31,360 Speaker 2: What about the alternative though? If the AfD, what was 1045 00:51:31,680 --> 00:51:33,960 Speaker 2: as a voter, why would I have voted for the 1046 00:51:34,000 --> 00:51:37,080 Speaker 2: AfD got my nineteen and a half twenty percent? Know 1047 00:51:37,239 --> 00:51:40,160 Speaker 2: that I don't get into government, and what's preventing me 1048 00:51:40,239 --> 00:51:42,200 Speaker 2: from going? You know what, as much as I might 1049 00:51:42,360 --> 00:51:44,680 Speaker 2: like them, they're not going anywhere, and no one wants 1050 00:51:44,680 --> 00:51:46,319 Speaker 2: to deal with them. I'll wander off and vote for 1051 00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:46,879 Speaker 2: somebody else. 1052 00:51:48,040 --> 00:51:50,840 Speaker 14: Well, it's a protest board, right, it's not unheard of. 1053 00:51:51,800 --> 00:51:55,680 Speaker 22: And you send a message that you don't like the 1054 00:51:55,719 --> 00:51:59,200 Speaker 22: migration policy that Europe and Germany is pursuing, You're angry 1055 00:51:59,239 --> 00:52:02,439 Speaker 22: at the massive inflation that has hurt your pocket book, 1056 00:52:02,840 --> 00:52:06,520 Speaker 22: and you don't like the pro Ukraine policy that the 1057 00:52:06,560 --> 00:52:09,759 Speaker 22: government and the mainstream parties have pursued. And if you 1058 00:52:09,800 --> 00:52:13,480 Speaker 22: say stop and I'm angry with you, then it's a 1059 00:52:13,880 --> 00:52:15,919 Speaker 22: you know, it's a nice way to, you know, show 1060 00:52:15,960 --> 00:52:17,839 Speaker 22: the middle finger to the establishment. 1061 00:52:18,080 --> 00:52:19,640 Speaker 14: That's not a new phenomenon. 1062 00:52:20,120 --> 00:52:23,040 Speaker 2: What's Torsten? How's the campaign gone? What's the vibe in Germany? 1063 00:52:23,080 --> 00:52:26,359 Speaker 2: It seems like a really troubled time in the world 1064 00:52:26,440 --> 00:52:27,920 Speaker 2: at the moment. Is that what you're getting? 1065 00:52:29,200 --> 00:52:34,320 Speaker 22: Yes, but the campaign was totally disconnected from the seriousness 1066 00:52:34,360 --> 00:52:38,080 Speaker 22: of the kind of security situation and the economic situation 1067 00:52:38,239 --> 00:52:42,080 Speaker 22: that Germany is facing. Germany's we didn't discuss China at 1068 00:52:42,120 --> 00:52:45,320 Speaker 22: all in the campaign, which I find personally quite ludicrous, 1069 00:52:45,360 --> 00:52:49,919 Speaker 22: given that our core industry is expected to suffer from 1070 00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:53,279 Speaker 22: a China shock, China eating our lunch in terms of 1071 00:52:53,320 --> 00:52:55,960 Speaker 22: our core industry, in terms of unfair competition, and of 1072 00:52:55,960 --> 00:52:59,880 Speaker 22: course Donald Trump is wreaking havoc, the biggest crisis of 1073 00:53:00,040 --> 00:53:02,960 Speaker 22: the Alliance in eight decades, and we have no clue 1074 00:53:02,960 --> 00:53:05,920 Speaker 22: how we are going to deal with it and provide 1075 00:53:05,920 --> 00:53:09,600 Speaker 22: for our own security and fend off this trade war 1076 00:53:09,680 --> 00:53:13,320 Speaker 22: that Trump is starting. So but we didn't really discuss 1077 00:53:13,400 --> 00:53:17,560 Speaker 22: this during the campaign. We kind of indulged in a 1078 00:53:17,600 --> 00:53:20,560 Speaker 22: bit of a nostalgic self referential campaign. 1079 00:53:20,600 --> 00:53:22,439 Speaker 14: But hey, here we are. 1080 00:53:22,880 --> 00:53:25,720 Speaker 22: We now need to form a government and Donald Trump 1081 00:53:25,760 --> 00:53:27,160 Speaker 22: is certainly not wedding for us. 1082 00:53:27,400 --> 00:53:29,080 Speaker 2: I like your style, mate, We'll get you on again. 1083 00:53:29,160 --> 00:53:31,200 Speaker 2: Torston Benner, who's the co founder and director of the 1084 00:53:31,200 --> 00:53:35,200 Speaker 2: Global Public Policy Institute in Berlin. Seven forty five. 1085 00:53:36,960 --> 00:53:41,920 Speaker 1: Good the Mike hosting Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio 1086 00:53:42,239 --> 00:53:43,280 Speaker 1: powered by the News. 1087 00:53:43,040 --> 00:53:43,600 Speaker 23: Talks at me. 1088 00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:48,440 Speaker 2: To twelve Mike They Gone from Germany was fantastic. Can 1089 00:53:48,440 --> 00:53:50,279 Speaker 2: we give them a weekly slot like you made in Italy. 1090 00:53:50,320 --> 00:53:53,280 Speaker 2: It's not a bad idea. Actually, I'm considering that I 1091 00:53:53,280 --> 00:53:55,399 Speaker 2: have no control over this program because I thought we'd 1092 00:53:55,440 --> 00:53:57,440 Speaker 2: sack Jason Pine from last week. But I know he's 1093 00:53:57,520 --> 00:53:58,640 Speaker 2: on this morning, so I'm going to have to have 1094 00:53:58,680 --> 00:54:01,120 Speaker 2: a word when he turns up. If he turns up, 1095 00:54:01,400 --> 00:54:04,200 Speaker 2: are we confident he's turning up or oh we are, Mike, 1096 00:54:04,280 --> 00:54:07,040 Speaker 2: great interview with the German, very informative, knowledgeable. I agree. 1097 00:54:07,320 --> 00:54:09,960 Speaker 2: I'll just say weird thing in the media at the moment. 1098 00:54:10,040 --> 00:54:11,480 Speaker 2: I don't like to spend too much time in the 1099 00:54:11,520 --> 00:54:13,120 Speaker 2: media if I can avoid it, because it will sounds 1100 00:54:13,120 --> 00:54:17,239 Speaker 2: self indulgent. But nevertheless, here's my great concern, and it 1101 00:54:17,560 --> 00:54:20,320 Speaker 2: struck me again yesterday when I read that Katie Bradford 1102 00:54:20,360 --> 00:54:22,359 Speaker 2: is leaving TV and said she's quit and she's off 1103 00:54:22,360 --> 00:54:25,200 Speaker 2: to Infrastructure New Zealand. And to be honest, I mean, 1104 00:54:25,239 --> 00:54:27,040 Speaker 2: God bless her. She may well love Bridges more than 1105 00:54:27,080 --> 00:54:30,160 Speaker 2: I do. But when you're leaving something to turn up 1106 00:54:30,160 --> 00:54:33,000 Speaker 2: to Infrastructure New Zealand, you know that things are dire. 1107 00:54:33,800 --> 00:54:35,360 Speaker 2: Without putting too fine a point on the fact that 1108 00:54:35,440 --> 00:54:38,280 Speaker 2: Infrastructure New Zealand might be just a tad boring. But nevertheless, 1109 00:54:38,600 --> 00:54:41,239 Speaker 2: in this tumult that we've seen in the media in 1110 00:54:41,280 --> 00:54:42,920 Speaker 2: the last couple of years, we get a lot of 1111 00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:45,640 Speaker 2: coverage of, you know, high profile journalists who are leaving. 1112 00:54:45,640 --> 00:54:47,319 Speaker 2: Can I be really honest, Most of them aren't that 1113 00:54:47,400 --> 00:54:50,120 Speaker 2: good and a lot of people won't be very pleased 1114 00:54:50,120 --> 00:54:51,560 Speaker 2: to hear me say that. But a lot of them 1115 00:54:51,640 --> 00:54:55,040 Speaker 2: aren't that good and they won't be missed broadly speaking, 1116 00:54:55,680 --> 00:54:57,480 Speaker 2: But there's a couple in the last few days that 1117 00:54:57,560 --> 00:54:59,800 Speaker 2: will be One's clear Travet. I like clear Trevette. I 1118 00:54:59,800 --> 00:55:02,200 Speaker 2: don't no clear Trabet. I just read her and she's 1119 00:55:02,200 --> 00:55:04,879 Speaker 2: a very talented broadcast when she's going, and that's sad 1120 00:55:04,920 --> 00:55:07,360 Speaker 2: in the Herald, the worse for it. Katie Breadford is 1121 00:55:07,360 --> 00:55:10,440 Speaker 2: another one. She's one of the rare reporters left at 1122 00:55:10,440 --> 00:55:12,279 Speaker 2: TV and said that can actually stand in front of 1123 00:55:12,320 --> 00:55:16,520 Speaker 2: a camera, use the English language and speak normally without stumbling, bumbling, 1124 00:55:16,640 --> 00:55:19,200 Speaker 2: referring to her notes or looking like she's going to 1125 00:55:19,200 --> 00:55:21,719 Speaker 2: get shot at any moment. She's actually quite good at 1126 00:55:21,719 --> 00:55:25,400 Speaker 2: a job. And what you get in these difficult times 1127 00:55:25,600 --> 00:55:28,399 Speaker 2: is the odd person many of them, as I say 1128 00:55:28,560 --> 00:55:31,480 Speaker 2: to be blunt, won't be missed. But the odd one 1129 00:55:31,480 --> 00:55:33,680 Speaker 2: who goes, you know what, this is no longer worth 1130 00:55:33,680 --> 00:55:36,440 Speaker 2: the hassle. I'm going to go get work elsewhere. And 1131 00:55:36,480 --> 00:55:40,680 Speaker 2: that saddens me because that's talent that by and large 1132 00:55:40,800 --> 00:55:44,000 Speaker 2: won't be replaced. So in other words, the media landscape 1133 00:55:44,200 --> 00:55:47,480 Speaker 2: in general will be the worse off for their departure. 1134 00:55:47,680 --> 00:55:50,399 Speaker 2: And so that's just two within the space of a week. 1135 00:55:50,680 --> 00:55:52,640 Speaker 2: So it's not a good sign. Turn away from. 1136 00:55:52,520 --> 00:55:57,520 Speaker 1: Et the Mike asking breakfast with a Vita retirement, Communities 1137 00:55:57,640 --> 00:55:58,440 Speaker 1: news togstad b. 1138 00:55:58,560 --> 00:56:01,080 Speaker 2: Hto seven, away from at let's to let's get to 1139 00:56:01,160 --> 00:56:02,560 Speaker 2: Rome and see what the Vatican had to say the 1140 00:56:02,640 --> 00:56:06,400 Speaker 2: last half hour. Joe's weather this morning, Joe, good morning. 1141 00:56:06,440 --> 00:56:09,920 Speaker 2: Make this doesn't sound good. Some blood tests initial mild 1142 00:56:10,000 --> 00:56:13,480 Speaker 2: kidney failure. So he's still on the high flow oxygen. 1143 00:56:13,840 --> 00:56:17,920 Speaker 2: He's still complex. What I mean, are we feeling hopeful 1144 00:56:17,920 --> 00:56:18,480 Speaker 2: at all or not? 1145 00:56:20,360 --> 00:56:22,920 Speaker 20: It doesn't sound very good, does it. He remained in 1146 00:56:22,960 --> 00:56:27,000 Speaker 20: a what they call a critical condition on Sunday. A 1147 00:56:27,040 --> 00:56:29,680 Speaker 20: great deal of alarm on Saturday, when the Vaticans said 1148 00:56:29,680 --> 00:56:33,120 Speaker 20: that the pope had suffered a prolonged respiratory crisis which 1149 00:56:33,160 --> 00:56:35,759 Speaker 20: sounds like he couldn't breathe at all. He has been 1150 00:56:35,800 --> 00:56:39,680 Speaker 20: receiving supplemental oxygen through a tube in the last forty 1151 00:56:39,719 --> 00:56:43,280 Speaker 20: eight hours. And now they're talking about blood tests showing, 1152 00:56:43,520 --> 00:56:47,360 Speaker 20: as you said, initial mild kidney malfunction or failure. 1153 00:56:48,040 --> 00:56:50,799 Speaker 2: Do they have a prognosis? Do they then go but 1154 00:56:52,080 --> 00:56:53,680 Speaker 2: or or they just leave it at that. 1155 00:56:55,480 --> 00:56:58,719 Speaker 20: Well, they say the clinical picture is complex and we 1156 00:56:58,840 --> 00:57:03,040 Speaker 20: need some drug therapies to provide more feedback. And then 1157 00:57:03,080 --> 00:57:07,120 Speaker 20: they say our prognosis remains reserved. So they're not saying 1158 00:57:07,200 --> 00:57:10,120 Speaker 20: too much, but clearly a lot of different things are 1159 00:57:10,120 --> 00:57:12,080 Speaker 20: going off at once at the same time. 1160 00:57:12,320 --> 00:57:14,759 Speaker 2: How many people are speaking on his behalf? You're getting 1161 00:57:14,800 --> 00:57:17,120 Speaker 2: something from the Vatican and something from the doctors. Are 1162 00:57:17,080 --> 00:57:19,400 Speaker 2: all going through the Vatican or all the doctors all one. 1163 00:57:21,000 --> 00:57:25,440 Speaker 20: Well, the doctors brief the Vatican public relations offers and 1164 00:57:25,680 --> 00:57:28,760 Speaker 20: they issue the statement once the doctors have given them 1165 00:57:28,800 --> 00:57:31,840 Speaker 20: the words, which are highly technical usually and that can 1166 00:57:31,880 --> 00:57:35,320 Speaker 20: create a lot of confusion among the journalists. But it 1167 00:57:35,480 --> 00:57:40,360 Speaker 20: sounds like he's stable, although critical. I think that's the 1168 00:57:40,360 --> 00:57:42,760 Speaker 20: way we look at it now. He also celebrated mass 1169 00:57:42,760 --> 00:57:46,680 Speaker 20: inside his apartment today inside the Jamli Hospital in Rome. 1170 00:57:46,840 --> 00:57:49,880 Speaker 2: Okay, how much concern in Italy in general? 1171 00:57:50,320 --> 00:57:52,920 Speaker 20: A great deal of concern. I think a great deal 1172 00:57:52,960 --> 00:57:55,720 Speaker 20: of concern. People think he's not going to come out 1173 00:57:55,720 --> 00:57:59,200 Speaker 20: of there, and I think that's certainly not looking very 1174 00:57:59,240 --> 00:58:02,000 Speaker 20: good because it's been in there for ten days and 1175 00:58:02,200 --> 00:58:05,000 Speaker 20: all these different parts of his body seem to be reacting. 1176 00:58:05,040 --> 00:58:08,440 Speaker 20: Now if he gets sepsis a kind of a blood infection, 1177 00:58:09,080 --> 00:58:11,920 Speaker 20: that could cause some sort of shutdown in these organs 1178 00:58:11,920 --> 00:58:13,439 Speaker 20: and that could just take him out. 1179 00:58:14,040 --> 00:58:15,880 Speaker 2: All right, No, we'll stay in touch to Joe. Appreciate 1180 00:58:15,880 --> 00:58:17,680 Speaker 2: it very much. Joe McKenna, who's in Rome, listened to 1181 00:58:17,720 --> 00:58:20,280 Speaker 2: the Vatican the last couple of moments. It seems ironic 1182 00:58:20,280 --> 00:58:23,120 Speaker 2: that conclave has just come out, isn't it. I'm still 1183 00:58:23,240 --> 00:58:26,360 Speaker 2: watching Stanley Tucci on with his Italian cooking show and 1184 00:58:26,440 --> 00:58:28,200 Speaker 2: just thinking about conclave. And I'm thinking of the carn 1185 00:58:29,320 --> 00:58:31,920 Speaker 2: because we'll go through that whole every time, you know, 1186 00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:34,160 Speaker 2: you go through and wait for the smoke. They re 1187 00:58:34,320 --> 00:58:36,720 Speaker 2: explain what's been going on in the Catholic Church for 1188 00:58:36,720 --> 00:58:40,040 Speaker 2: one hundreds, if not thousands of years, and con what's 1189 00:58:40,080 --> 00:58:44,120 Speaker 2: a conclave? And then we'll go just smoke whitch. Yeah exactly. 1190 00:58:44,200 --> 00:58:46,960 Speaker 2: So anyway, we'll see what happens in the next couple 1191 00:58:47,040 --> 00:58:50,840 Speaker 2: of days. Another ridden sight. If Brian Roach's report last 1192 00:58:50,880 --> 00:58:53,200 Speaker 2: week wasn't enough, let's do this month, Glenn four minutes 1193 00:58:53,200 --> 00:58:58,040 Speaker 2: away from it, just cos we go. If Brian Roach's 1194 00:58:58,040 --> 00:59:00,560 Speaker 2: report wasn't good enough last week, we d that Erika 1195 00:59:00,600 --> 00:59:03,400 Speaker 2: stand for Minister of Education lost her You know what, 1196 00:59:04,400 --> 00:59:07,439 Speaker 2: twelve hundred and fifty teachers short this year? Is that bad? 1197 00:59:07,680 --> 00:59:11,520 Speaker 2: Reasonably bad? Is that what we're expecting? Not really, we're 1198 00:59:11,560 --> 00:59:14,440 Speaker 2: expecting a surplus of a thousand, So just the two 1199 00:59:14,480 --> 00:59:17,840 Speaker 2: and a half thousand out and you ask yourself, of course, how. 1200 00:59:17,800 --> 00:59:20,480 Speaker 21: Is that possible because of the maths We don't know, haven't. 1201 00:59:20,560 --> 00:59:22,640 Speaker 2: Exactly No one passed the math test. And then that's 1202 00:59:22,680 --> 00:59:24,920 Speaker 2: the difficulty, isn't it. The twenty twenty three Teacher Demand 1203 00:59:24,960 --> 00:59:27,720 Speaker 2: and Supply Planning projection failed to account for the additional 1204 00:59:27,720 --> 00:59:31,000 Speaker 2: teacher release and non content administrative time gained by teachers 1205 00:59:31,120 --> 00:59:33,680 Speaker 2: in their latest collective agreement. In other words, known was awake. 1206 00:59:34,160 --> 00:59:38,080 Speaker 2: They should get an email that said, namely, five things 1207 00:59:38,120 --> 00:59:40,000 Speaker 2: that you did last week that were of any use 1208 00:59:40,040 --> 00:59:44,200 Speaker 2: to anybody at all, and when they when they can't answer, well, 1209 00:59:44,320 --> 00:59:47,120 Speaker 2: they put down the non contact time exactly well, sack 1210 00:59:47,160 --> 00:59:47,920 Speaker 2: them sport. 1211 00:59:48,040 --> 00:59:54,480 Speaker 1: Next the News and the news Makers.

Race two in the 1235 01:01:16,160 --> 01:01:19,160 Speaker 2: Supercar Saturday night was superb. They're correct. Did you see 1236 01:01:19,240 --> 01:01:20,440 Speaker 2: Race two on Saturday Night? 1237 01:01:21,160 --> 01:01:21,240 Speaker 24: No? 1238 01:01:21,360 --> 01:01:21,760 Speaker 6: I didn't. 1239 01:01:21,840 --> 01:01:24,400 Speaker 2: No, it's worth going Honestly, I know I say this 1240 01:01:24,440 --> 01:01:26,440 Speaker 2: all the time, but it's worth going back and watching it. 1241 01:01:26,840 --> 01:01:29,960 Speaker 2: At the end, in the last couple of laps, it 1242 01:01:30,040 --> 01:01:33,080 Speaker 2: was Waters and Feenie back to back, back to back, 1243 01:01:33,200 --> 01:01:35,520 Speaker 2: back to back, bump and grinding, bump and grinding, so 1244 01:01:35,640 --> 01:01:40,080 Speaker 2: much so that on one corner Waters drove Feenie off 1245 01:01:40,120 --> 01:01:44,040 Speaker 2: the track. Knew had gone wrong, had to redress immediately. 1246 01:01:44,160 --> 01:01:46,720 Speaker 2: While they were doing that and getting themselves back on track, 1247 01:01:46,760 --> 01:01:50,160 Speaker 2: the third car, Brown caught up with them, so you 1248 01:01:50,240 --> 01:01:52,840 Speaker 2: got three. In the last couple of laps. On the 1249 01:01:52,880 --> 01:01:56,920 Speaker 2: final corner, Waters is behind, comes around the corner, bumps 1250 01:01:56,920 --> 01:02:00,240 Speaker 2: and grinds once again. Feeni gets his nose up to 1251 01:02:00,280 --> 01:02:02,959 Speaker 2: the back bumper. But you're running out of track because 1252 01:02:02,960 --> 01:02:04,919 Speaker 2: you're on the back straight. You think it's over because 1253 01:02:04,920 --> 01:02:06,800 Speaker 2: there's not enough time left in the pace on the 1254 01:02:06,800 --> 01:02:09,480 Speaker 2: car and the backstraight isn't that great until you see 1255 01:02:09,600 --> 01:02:11,600 Speaker 2: what is called side draft. Do you know what side 1256 01:02:11,640 --> 01:02:12,080 Speaker 2: draft is? 1257 01:02:14,320 --> 01:02:15,120 Speaker 6: Type of draft? 1258 01:02:15,480 --> 01:02:18,760 Speaker 2: Correct, So you get if you get close enough, if 1259 01:02:18,800 --> 01:02:22,439 Speaker 2: you get close enough to the car next to you. No, 1260 01:02:22,520 --> 01:02:27,640 Speaker 2: Jason's still there. Jason still there. He's gripped. He's gripped. 1261 01:02:27,920 --> 01:02:29,880 Speaker 2: So if you get your car close enough to the 1262 01:02:29,880 --> 01:02:32,440 Speaker 2: car next to you and for long enough, it will 1263 01:02:32,520 --> 01:02:35,960 Speaker 2: suck you and propel you forward. And if you ever 1264 01:02:36,000 --> 01:02:38,600 Speaker 2: want to see, this is physics, This is science in 1265 01:02:38,640 --> 01:02:40,880 Speaker 2: the making. This is a guy who couldn't win to 1266 01:02:40,880 --> 01:02:45,560 Speaker 2: save himself. Side draft suck forward, one closest finish in 1267 01:02:45,640 --> 01:02:48,600 Speaker 2: supercar's history. 1268 01:02:49,280 --> 01:02:49,520 Speaker 5: Hmm. 1269 01:02:51,120 --> 01:02:53,520 Speaker 6: I can just see all these motorists on the motorway 1270 01:02:53,840 --> 01:02:54,400 Speaker 6: at the moment. 1271 01:02:56,080 --> 01:02:59,680 Speaker 4: Yes, yes, they're trying to get sucked into the draft. 1272 01:03:00,040 --> 01:03:00,400 Speaker 6: Grinding. 1273 01:03:00,520 --> 01:03:03,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's bumping and grinding and sucked into the draft. 1274 01:03:03,440 --> 01:03:05,560 Speaker 2: And that's why I love the love it. Anyway, you've 1275 01:03:05,600 --> 01:03:07,360 Speaker 2: gotta you've gotta go watch Extinct. 1276 01:03:07,880 --> 01:03:08,840 Speaker 6: That was extincsive. 1277 01:03:09,720 --> 01:03:11,560 Speaker 2: So I just like I like to paint. I like 1278 01:03:11,600 --> 01:03:12,240 Speaker 2: to paint the picture. 1279 01:03:12,840 --> 01:03:16,640 Speaker 4: I know it's popular, the supercas, but with no apart 1280 01:03:16,640 --> 01:03:21,240 Speaker 4: from Matthew Payne, with no real key we front runners, 1281 01:03:21,760 --> 01:03:23,800 Speaker 4: there's interest. Wayne here a little bit. 1282 01:03:24,160 --> 01:03:26,680 Speaker 2: I've got Scott McLaughlin on the program tomorrow. I'm going 1283 01:03:26,680 --> 01:03:29,080 Speaker 2: to ask him there. I don't think so, because I 1284 01:03:29,160 --> 01:03:31,439 Speaker 2: enjoyed watching those guys, right. I don't care that Phoene 1285 01:03:31,560 --> 01:03:33,560 Speaker 2: is Australian. Couldn't kill it. Ye, yeah, you know what 1286 01:03:33,600 --> 01:03:36,120 Speaker 2: I mean. It's just like great sport is great sports. 1287 01:03:36,360 --> 01:03:38,720 Speaker 2: So yes, I'll watch if one for Liam Lawson, but 1288 01:03:38,760 --> 01:03:40,800 Speaker 2: I'll also enjoy Max for staff and when he wins 1289 01:03:40,840 --> 01:03:43,880 Speaker 2: because he's a genius, you know what I mean. Anyway, 1290 01:03:43,920 --> 01:03:45,280 Speaker 2: do you see the boxing Jason? 1291 01:03:45,920 --> 01:03:46,240 Speaker 6: I did. 1292 01:03:46,440 --> 01:03:49,600 Speaker 25: I did to watch the boxing. Yeah, I mean a 1293 01:03:49,640 --> 01:03:52,080 Speaker 25: real shame that Dubois pulled out. I would have liked 1294 01:03:52,120 --> 01:03:54,920 Speaker 25: to have seen that fight. But Coolie turned up clearly 1295 01:03:54,920 --> 01:03:57,120 Speaker 25: out of shape. But he's he's a big hitter. I 1296 01:03:57,160 --> 01:03:59,080 Speaker 25: saw a couple of the swings and if you're behind 1297 01:03:59,560 --> 01:04:02,040 Speaker 25: one of his some punches, you're not getting back up. 1298 01:04:02,080 --> 01:04:03,760 Speaker 25: But yeah, I think Joe Parker did what he had 1299 01:04:03,800 --> 01:04:06,360 Speaker 25: to do six in a row. Now, you know he's 1300 01:04:06,720 --> 01:04:09,400 Speaker 25: I think he's proven that you can get beaten boxing 1301 01:04:09,440 --> 01:04:12,320 Speaker 25: and still come back. Well hopefully, yeah, hopefully it gets 1302 01:04:12,320 --> 01:04:14,960 Speaker 25: to Boir or I know he's after I don't think 1303 01:04:14,960 --> 01:04:17,439 Speaker 25: that will happen, But yeah, you got to admire him. 1304 01:04:17,520 --> 01:04:19,400 Speaker 2: I think there's a stitch up here Andrew that that 1305 01:04:19,400 --> 01:04:22,760 Speaker 2: that Frank Warren guy who looks as dodgy as dodgy, 1306 01:04:22,840 --> 01:04:25,000 Speaker 2: is a dodgy thing. So he suddenly I think. 1307 01:04:24,800 --> 01:04:26,480 Speaker 6: That do you even know if you even have? 1308 01:04:26,600 --> 01:04:29,240 Speaker 4: You even notice, mate, that all the English promoters have, 1309 01:04:29,400 --> 01:04:34,160 Speaker 4: like Eastna think it's exactly they're offered guy Richie movie, 1310 01:04:34,160 --> 01:04:35,080 Speaker 4: aren't they exactly? 1311 01:04:35,480 --> 01:04:38,280 Speaker 2: But I stitched tou Boir and you sick up and 1312 01:04:38,360 --> 01:04:40,000 Speaker 2: so yeah, get left out. 1313 01:04:40,080 --> 01:04:42,440 Speaker 6: Well, there's a lot of suspicion about that. 1314 01:04:42,480 --> 01:04:45,160 Speaker 4: I wouldn't be surprised if du Boi fights Who's Sick next, 1315 01:04:45,200 --> 01:04:47,120 Speaker 4: and then the winner of that surely would have to 1316 01:04:47,160 --> 01:04:52,160 Speaker 4: take on Joseph Parker, massive fight, massive payday. Look all Joe. 1317 01:04:52,400 --> 01:04:55,560 Speaker 4: All Joe can do is carry on beating whoever's put 1318 01:04:55,560 --> 01:04:57,360 Speaker 4: in front of him. And he's done that, and I 1319 01:04:57,480 --> 01:05:00,480 Speaker 4: think he will. His stocks would have risen even more 1320 01:05:00,480 --> 01:05:04,480 Speaker 4: with the Saudis because he took on the coolie, dangerous 1321 01:05:04,480 --> 01:05:07,800 Speaker 4: banana skin type of fight at short notice, went out there, 1322 01:05:08,080 --> 01:05:10,080 Speaker 4: entertained the crowd, put on a bit of a show. 1323 01:05:10,960 --> 01:05:14,360 Speaker 4: So I think the Saudis will try to make sure 1324 01:05:15,040 --> 01:05:18,560 Speaker 4: that dubois ousick happens and then that Parker fights the 1325 01:05:18,560 --> 01:05:18,960 Speaker 4: winner of that. 1326 01:05:19,040 --> 01:05:21,840 Speaker 2: Who else was left? I mean, you've got Tyson, Fury's gone, 1327 01:05:21,920 --> 01:05:23,800 Speaker 2: Anthony Joshuas was. 1328 01:05:23,760 --> 01:05:25,280 Speaker 6: Sort of yeah, yeah, yeah. 1329 01:05:26,040 --> 01:05:28,640 Speaker 4: And if you look at the Independent top ten top 1330 01:05:28,720 --> 01:05:30,520 Speaker 4: twenty rankings of the world, a lot of the fighters 1331 01:05:30,520 --> 01:05:32,560 Speaker 4: are in their mid to late thirties and most of them. 1332 01:05:32,480 --> 01:05:34,000 Speaker 2: Are gone exactly Parker. 1333 01:05:34,520 --> 01:05:37,080 Speaker 4: Parker's thirty three, He's pretty much in his prime. I 1334 01:05:37,120 --> 01:05:41,400 Speaker 4: reckon still, and now it's his chance to really make hay. 1335 01:05:42,200 --> 01:05:46,360 Speaker 2: How boxing was that he left the Congo via Ethiopia 1336 01:05:46,800 --> 01:05:50,320 Speaker 2: to turn up in Saudi Arabia? Is it like a 1337 01:05:50,360 --> 01:05:51,880 Speaker 2: graber seat? What's that about? 1338 01:05:51,960 --> 01:05:56,240 Speaker 4: He got in at two am and then about twenty 1339 01:05:56,320 --> 01:05:59,040 Speaker 4: three hours later he's fighting in front of a global 1340 01:05:59,080 --> 01:06:04,000 Speaker 4: audience and give you wait twelve round about you're gonnaunderstand 1341 01:06:04,000 --> 01:06:07,800 Speaker 4: why he's looking a little bit over weight. I don't 1342 01:06:07,840 --> 01:06:11,680 Speaker 4: know if there's tea rooms in the Conchastit Airporter ads 1343 01:06:11,720 --> 01:06:12,600 Speaker 4: Abam Airport. 1344 01:06:12,640 --> 01:06:14,360 Speaker 6: It looked like you had a pretty good feet. 1345 01:06:14,160 --> 01:06:17,840 Speaker 2: On the Coru lounge at Conchas brief break more of 1346 01:06:17,880 --> 01:06:20,440 Speaker 2: the moment Jason Pine Andrew Seville with us The Team Past. 1347 01:06:20,240 --> 01:06:25,400 Speaker 1: Eight The Mike Husking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio 1348 01:06:25,600 --> 01:06:27,040 Speaker 1: powered by News Talks it B. 1349 01:06:28,320 --> 01:06:33,320 Speaker 2: News Talks A sixteen past eight. 1350 01:06:38,160 --> 01:06:41,640 Speaker 1: The Monday Morning Commentary barks on the Mike Husking Breakfast 1351 01:06:41,800 --> 01:06:45,760 Speaker 1: with Spears Finance, supporting Kiwi businesses with finance solutions for 1352 01:06:45,800 --> 01:06:46,920 Speaker 1: over fifty years. 1353 01:06:47,080 --> 01:06:50,920 Speaker 2: Coun't get good help, Jason Pine and Andrew Seville with us. Jason, 1354 01:06:51,640 --> 01:06:53,120 Speaker 2: do you regret supporting the Phoenix? 1355 01:06:54,400 --> 01:06:57,600 Speaker 25: No? No, you must ride the ups and downs of 1356 01:06:57,640 --> 01:07:01,000 Speaker 25: sporting fandom as you know't Mike, but you cannot deny 1357 01:07:01,120 --> 01:07:02,520 Speaker 25: the juggernaut that is Auckland FC. 1358 01:07:02,640 --> 01:07:04,280 Speaker 6: We need to get you along to a game, Mike. 1359 01:07:04,320 --> 01:07:06,720 Speaker 25: I know you're not the biggest football fan in the world, 1360 01:07:06,720 --> 01:07:09,520 Speaker 25: but I can see you in the port jumping with 1361 01:07:09,600 --> 01:07:11,160 Speaker 25: those fans and blue and black. 1362 01:07:11,320 --> 01:07:16,000 Speaker 2: No, no, I can't, I can't, Jason. What happened yesterday 1363 01:07:16,160 --> 01:07:18,960 Speaker 2: was that sheer performance. In other words, Auckland are a 1364 01:07:19,000 --> 01:07:21,880 Speaker 2: vastly superior side to the Phoenix or the Phoenix mentally 1365 01:07:22,040 --> 01:07:23,600 Speaker 2: cracked commination. 1366 01:07:23,760 --> 01:07:26,200 Speaker 25: I think Auckland FC are the best team now in 1367 01:07:26,200 --> 01:07:26,560 Speaker 25: the league. 1368 01:07:26,680 --> 01:07:27,640 Speaker 6: It's theirs to lose. 1369 01:07:27,680 --> 01:07:31,600 Speaker 25: Now they've got a terrific squad coached well, high on confidence, 1370 01:07:31,600 --> 01:07:33,880 Speaker 25: all of that sort of thing. Wellington Phoenix, look, I 1371 01:07:33,920 --> 01:07:35,920 Speaker 25: think are in a low point and it's such a 1372 01:07:36,000 --> 01:07:38,200 Speaker 25: shame after what they did last year, making it all 1373 01:07:38,240 --> 01:07:40,320 Speaker 25: the way to within one game of the Grand Final. 1374 01:07:40,360 --> 01:07:43,439 Speaker 25: But they just haven't replaced the quality that they lost 1375 01:07:43,480 --> 01:07:46,480 Speaker 25: from last year squad. And yeah, it's going to take 1376 01:07:46,880 --> 01:07:48,680 Speaker 25: take something special to get them out of the rut 1377 01:07:48,680 --> 01:07:50,560 Speaker 25: that they're in. I don't think I'll play finals this 1378 01:07:50,680 --> 01:07:54,040 Speaker 25: year and overhaul probably needed of their squad, but yet 1379 01:07:54,080 --> 01:07:57,160 Speaker 25: they were just no match for a rampant, rampant Auckland 1380 01:07:57,240 --> 01:08:00,000 Speaker 25: FC team On Saturday, Sir Mike was in the crowd 1381 01:08:00,040 --> 01:08:00,520 Speaker 25: perb again. 1382 01:08:01,280 --> 01:08:03,880 Speaker 2: The atmosphere is unmatched you. I mean, I look at 1383 01:08:03,920 --> 01:08:05,720 Speaker 2: any of the rugby games and I know they got 1384 01:08:05,720 --> 01:08:07,680 Speaker 2: excited in Dneed and they get all of that, but 1385 01:08:07,720 --> 01:08:13,360 Speaker 2: that atmosphere nothing touched that atmosphere at go Media Stadium. 1386 01:08:13,520 --> 01:08:16,080 Speaker 4: The probably the problem for Dunedin, Mike is that the 1387 01:08:16,120 --> 01:08:18,240 Speaker 4: Highlanders are playing some darn good rugby and that was 1388 01:08:18,280 --> 01:08:22,040 Speaker 4: a gutsy win. But there's a whole grand stand empty. Yeah, 1389 01:08:22,120 --> 01:08:23,479 Speaker 4: they're only filling maybe. 1390 01:08:23,280 --> 01:08:27,080 Speaker 2: Three total it's it's the malaise that is rugby at 1391 01:08:27,120 --> 01:08:27,960 Speaker 2: the moment. That guy. 1392 01:08:28,680 --> 01:08:30,479 Speaker 4: I think the crowd in Napier was good for the 1393 01:08:30,520 --> 01:08:33,960 Speaker 4: Canes game, Chiefs crowd against the Crusaders pretty good. But 1394 01:08:35,000 --> 01:08:38,160 Speaker 4: some of those Australian A League teams must be looking 1395 01:08:38,200 --> 01:08:40,720 Speaker 4: at those pictures coming off the TV from Aukam dev 1396 01:08:40,800 --> 01:08:42,880 Speaker 4: Sea going how on earth happened here? 1397 01:08:43,479 --> 01:08:44,719 Speaker 6: The best crowds in the whole. 1398 01:08:44,600 --> 01:08:48,080 Speaker 2: League exactly what they've done, what Bill Foley has done, 1399 01:08:48,240 --> 01:08:52,240 Speaker 2: is you know, just amazing. That little guy Andrew is 1400 01:08:52,280 --> 01:08:55,120 Speaker 2: Finlay whatever his name is, the Fallba. Yeah, how is 1401 01:08:55,160 --> 01:08:57,400 Speaker 2: he over five foot five? 1402 01:08:59,760 --> 01:09:03,360 Speaker 4: I'm have you ever yes kicking out? 1403 01:09:03,760 --> 01:09:06,040 Speaker 6: Have you ever heard the term glass house and throwing stone? 1404 01:09:06,080 --> 01:09:08,160 Speaker 2: Well, I mean I am play fullback for the Highlanders. 1405 01:09:08,200 --> 01:09:10,519 Speaker 6: Mate, I think he's about five to nine. 1406 01:09:10,960 --> 01:09:15,040 Speaker 2: Bollocks, he's a meet of seventy five. That's how till 1407 01:09:15,120 --> 01:09:17,120 Speaker 2: I am. I went to the doctor last week. I'm 1408 01:09:17,120 --> 01:09:18,200 Speaker 2: a meter of seventy nine. 1409 01:09:18,880 --> 01:09:22,559 Speaker 6: Hey are you shrinking? You're not a meter seventy nine. 1410 01:09:22,600 --> 01:09:24,680 Speaker 2: I'm a meter seventy nine. What the doctor said, I'm 1411 01:09:24,680 --> 01:09:29,559 Speaker 2: a meter seventy nine fifty? What you're a meter fifty? 1412 01:09:30,000 --> 01:09:32,120 Speaker 2: Did you round the middle of what are you talking about? 1413 01:09:32,560 --> 01:09:34,280 Speaker 6: Did you have your flesh London heels on? 1414 01:09:34,479 --> 01:09:36,760 Speaker 2: No, you said. The guy pulled the thing down on 1415 01:09:36,800 --> 01:09:38,599 Speaker 2: my head and he said, you're at one seventy nine. 1416 01:09:38,640 --> 01:09:40,360 Speaker 2: He said, does that sound a bit rice? That sounds 1417 01:09:40,360 --> 01:09:41,360 Speaker 2: about right to me? Doctor? 1418 01:09:41,439 --> 01:09:42,040 Speaker 21: Who am I right? 1419 01:09:42,120 --> 01:09:42,719 Speaker 23: Head of the doctor? 1420 01:09:43,320 --> 01:09:44,519 Speaker 6: Did you have your pants still on? 1421 01:09:46,800 --> 01:09:48,960 Speaker 2: From a pants back on? He said, there's no need 1422 01:09:49,000 --> 01:09:51,160 Speaker 2: to just take your pants off, mister hostin. 1423 01:09:52,520 --> 01:09:58,880 Speaker 6: Now I want to with your pants on? Do you 1424 01:09:58,920 --> 01:10:06,679 Speaker 6: have to ask me twice? Miss asking? 1425 01:10:06,720 --> 01:10:10,519 Speaker 4: You don't need to take your pants off for this one. 1426 01:10:11,280 --> 01:10:17,160 Speaker 4: So the reason I look, look Finn newly brilliant, a 1427 01:10:17,200 --> 01:10:21,679 Speaker 4: breakout game for him, littlew and a lot like Damien McKenzie, 1428 01:10:21,720 --> 01:10:24,200 Speaker 4: all also from South and who again had a great 1429 01:10:24,200 --> 01:10:28,240 Speaker 4: game for the Chiefs the night earlier. Look, clearly Jamie 1430 01:10:28,360 --> 01:10:31,360 Speaker 4: Joseph is having a major influence on this Highlanders team. 1431 01:10:31,400 --> 01:10:34,639 Speaker 4: The grit determination they were praying with thirteen men against 1432 01:10:34,720 --> 01:10:37,320 Speaker 4: an all black Laiden Blues team. There's no way they 1433 01:10:37,320 --> 01:10:39,160 Speaker 4: should have won that game. So I thought it was 1434 01:10:39,200 --> 01:10:41,800 Speaker 4: a superb game to watch, but the Highlanders deserve a 1435 01:10:41,800 --> 01:10:42,559 Speaker 4: big pat on the back. 1436 01:10:42,800 --> 01:10:44,719 Speaker 2: My assessment, did you see any of the rugby. Jason, 1437 01:10:44,760 --> 01:10:46,639 Speaker 2: you're still too wrapped up in the football. 1438 01:10:47,080 --> 01:10:48,959 Speaker 6: No, I watched pretty much every game. 1439 01:10:48,880 --> 01:10:52,560 Speaker 2: The I thought the Crusaders were okay, It's just the 1440 01:10:52,640 --> 01:10:54,320 Speaker 2: Chiefs were very very very good. 1441 01:10:55,040 --> 01:10:55,799 Speaker 6: Chiefs are terrific. 1442 01:10:55,840 --> 01:10:55,920 Speaker 2: Ye. 1443 01:10:55,920 --> 01:10:57,479 Speaker 6: They're a good, very very good team. 1444 01:10:57,560 --> 01:11:01,200 Speaker 25: Yeah. And look, I mean Clay McMillan keeps them grounded. 1445 01:11:01,240 --> 01:11:02,920 Speaker 25: And they were the best team two years ago, made 1446 01:11:02,920 --> 01:11:05,400 Speaker 25: the final loss of the Crusades, probably second best team. 1447 01:11:05,479 --> 01:11:07,760 Speaker 25: Last year made the final loss of the Blues. They 1448 01:11:07,760 --> 01:11:09,400 Speaker 25: look to me to be the best team this season. 1449 01:11:09,479 --> 01:11:12,280 Speaker 25: Small sample size two games in, but I think they'll 1450 01:11:12,320 --> 01:11:15,000 Speaker 25: go deep, deep again and I would love to see 1451 01:11:15,000 --> 01:11:17,519 Speaker 25: them win one. I think it's almost like it's their time. 1452 01:11:17,680 --> 01:11:20,599 Speaker 25: Just a word on the Highlander. Is Timothy Tava Tava Nahwai. 1453 01:11:20,840 --> 01:11:23,439 Speaker 25: What a player he has become. I thought it was 1454 01:11:23,439 --> 01:11:25,960 Speaker 25: an outside back. He's clearly a midfielder. He's held off 1455 01:11:25,960 --> 01:11:28,559 Speaker 25: playing for Fiji. Scott Robinson has to have a look 1456 01:11:28,560 --> 01:11:29,040 Speaker 25: at that bloke. 1457 01:11:29,760 --> 01:11:31,200 Speaker 4: No, hey, Mike, you look at the look at the 1458 01:11:31,240 --> 01:11:34,040 Speaker 4: Chiefs and they're all blacks. Have comeback fizzing. Look at 1459 01:11:34,040 --> 01:11:37,840 Speaker 4: the Blues and they're all blacks. Look jaded they look. 1460 01:11:38,240 --> 01:11:40,280 Speaker 4: Maybe there's something going on there. I don't know, maybe 1461 01:11:40,280 --> 01:11:43,400 Speaker 4: a couple of injury niggles, but just the difference between 1462 01:11:43,439 --> 01:11:45,280 Speaker 4: the Chiefs all Blacks and the Blues all Blacks, as 1463 01:11:45,320 --> 01:11:45,799 Speaker 4: are concerned. 1464 01:11:45,800 --> 01:11:48,960 Speaker 6: The other interesting point for me entertaining. 1465 01:11:48,560 --> 01:11:51,240 Speaker 4: Rugby some great tries of being scored in his eye 1466 01:11:51,280 --> 01:11:54,200 Speaker 4: catching stuff.

I'm on the way to the airport, so I'm 1548 01:15:49,080 --> 01:15:49,519 Speaker 23: in the car. 1549 01:15:49,760 --> 01:15:52,240 Speaker 2: No, no worries it all. I don't know if you've 1550 01:15:52,240 --> 01:15:54,800 Speaker 2: seen the poll this morning in the Sydney Morning Herald, 1551 01:15:54,840 --> 01:15:58,839 Speaker 2: but it is a shocker, a ten point two party 1552 01:15:58,920 --> 01:16:02,840 Speaker 2: preferred gap and I'm assuming that must have been played 1553 01:16:02,880 --> 01:16:07,000 Speaker 2: out put Dutton and the driver's sea, wouldn't it? 1554 01:16:07,000 --> 01:16:07,479 Speaker 6: It would? 1555 01:16:07,640 --> 01:16:12,960 Speaker 23: And the Polster resolve is that poll and the interpretation 1556 01:16:13,080 --> 01:16:16,559 Speaker 23: of it is by the city boy held reporter's reporter. 1557 01:16:16,680 --> 01:16:19,760 Speaker 23: That would mean that the election would be later rather 1558 01:16:19,800 --> 01:16:22,880 Speaker 23: than sooner. But I just don't wear that because a 1559 01:16:22,960 --> 01:16:26,559 Speaker 23: number of things have happened across the weekend and Friday 1560 01:16:26,600 --> 01:16:28,600 Speaker 23: that would indicate to me we're not going to have 1561 01:16:28,600 --> 01:16:31,439 Speaker 23: a budget and we'll probably go to the poles on 1562 01:16:31,479 --> 01:16:34,840 Speaker 23: April five or twelve. But Labor would be looking at 1563 01:16:34,840 --> 01:16:38,040 Speaker 23: that pole and thinking you might get out of this problem. 1564 01:16:38,040 --> 01:16:40,520 Speaker 23: And maybe that's got something to do with that announcement 1565 01:16:40,520 --> 01:16:42,439 Speaker 23: on the weekend where bulk billing is going to have 1566 01:16:42,439 --> 01:16:46,000 Speaker 23: another eight and a half billion dollars thrown at it. 1567 01:16:46,720 --> 01:16:49,719 Speaker 23: And Peter Dutton immediately comes back and says, oh, see 1568 01:16:49,760 --> 01:16:52,080 Speaker 23: your eight and a half and top it up with 1569 01:16:52,240 --> 01:16:54,479 Speaker 23: nine billion. This is for bolk billings so you can 1570 01:16:54,479 --> 01:16:57,400 Speaker 23: go to the doctor for free, and everyone this morning 1571 01:16:57,439 --> 01:17:00,000 Speaker 23: saying we'll hang on a minute. Where's the money coming from? 1572 01:17:00,160 --> 01:17:02,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, well that's not a bad question, Steve. Where is 1573 01:17:02,920 --> 01:17:05,160 Speaker 2: the money coming from? 1574 01:17:05,560 --> 01:17:09,000 Speaker 23: Well you can only presume that once the election's won 1575 01:17:09,600 --> 01:17:12,479 Speaker 23: by either Labor or the Coalition, But at some point 1576 01:17:12,479 --> 01:17:14,960 Speaker 23: the medicare Levey's going to have to go up because 1577 01:17:15,000 --> 01:17:17,040 Speaker 23: that's a huge amount of money. I mean, it's spread 1578 01:17:17,080 --> 01:17:20,880 Speaker 23: over between now and twenty thirty won't kick in until 1579 01:17:20,960 --> 01:17:26,120 Speaker 23: November this year. Peter Dutton has said, well, part of 1580 01:17:26,120 --> 01:17:27,439 Speaker 23: the way we're going to pay for it is we're 1581 01:17:27,439 --> 01:17:30,439 Speaker 23: going to crack down hard on yours and my favorite topic, 1582 01:17:30,560 --> 01:17:34,160 Speaker 23: the NDS, so that people can't be claiming to go 1583 01:17:34,200 --> 01:17:37,080 Speaker 23: to strip joints to fix up their mental health. So 1584 01:17:37,160 --> 01:17:39,000 Speaker 23: that might be one way to get some of it back, 1585 01:17:39,280 --> 01:17:42,200 Speaker 23: but it's a huge dent in what's already a budget 1586 01:17:42,200 --> 01:17:43,879 Speaker 23: that's going to definitely be in deficit. 1587 01:17:45,080 --> 01:17:48,439 Speaker 2: Who actually in this bulk billing you refer to, we 1588 01:17:48,520 --> 01:17:50,240 Speaker 2: have limited in this country going to be a high 1589 01:17:50,320 --> 01:17:52,200 Speaker 2: user and all that sort of stuff. Who with the 1590 01:17:52,280 --> 01:17:55,400 Speaker 2: Saint and half nine billion dollars gets does basically everyone 1591 01:17:55,400 --> 01:17:57,080 Speaker 2: get to go no matter who you are, how wealthy 1592 01:17:57,080 --> 01:17:59,560 Speaker 2: you are, you get to go free. 1593 01:18:00,840 --> 01:18:03,840 Speaker 23: And so you know what they do is that there'll 1594 01:18:03,840 --> 01:18:07,240 Speaker 23: be a twelve and a half percent addition to the 1595 01:18:07,400 --> 01:18:12,120 Speaker 23: GPS themselves to encourage them. That'll be a fee that 1596 01:18:12,160 --> 01:18:14,360 Speaker 23: they will get back from the government or from the 1597 01:18:14,400 --> 01:18:18,600 Speaker 23: taxpayers to encourage them to be bulk billing doctors. But 1598 01:18:18,720 --> 01:18:22,280 Speaker 23: it is quite remarkable that you can go along. I mean, 1599 01:18:22,960 --> 01:18:25,960 Speaker 23: your consultations are limited in terms of time. You can 1600 01:18:26,000 --> 01:18:28,080 Speaker 23: basically go to the doctor in this country for nothing. 1601 01:18:28,400 --> 01:18:28,960 Speaker 23: If you're a. 1602 01:18:28,840 --> 01:18:32,640 Speaker 2: Millionaire, that's ridiculous. And further, well, what happens here is 1603 01:18:32,680 --> 01:18:35,160 Speaker 2: they give them X number of dollars. But what then 1604 01:18:35,200 --> 01:18:37,160 Speaker 2: happens does the doctors go, oh, I can't do it 1605 01:18:37,160 --> 01:18:38,840 Speaker 2: for that amount of money, So we'll have to put 1606 01:18:38,880 --> 01:18:40,599 Speaker 2: a search charge on All of a sudden, you're paying 1607 01:18:40,640 --> 01:18:41,840 Speaker 2: sixty bucks to go to the doctor. 1608 01:18:42,680 --> 01:18:45,240 Speaker 23: Yeah, we call it the gap fee, and the GPS, 1609 01:18:45,520 --> 01:18:49,240 Speaker 23: indeed yesterday said, look a good idea, but most of 1610 01:18:49,280 --> 01:18:50,760 Speaker 23: us still are not going to be able to make 1611 01:18:50,800 --> 01:18:54,400 Speaker 23: our practice profitable on that level of money, and so 1612 01:18:54,479 --> 01:18:56,920 Speaker 23: we probably won't do it. But a lot of them 1613 01:18:56,960 --> 01:18:59,200 Speaker 23: will do it, and people will search out clinics that 1614 01:18:59,240 --> 01:19:03,479 Speaker 23: have got no gap free medical trip. 1615 01:19:03,680 --> 01:19:07,919 Speaker 2: Well these citizenships, so you go to the citizenship ceremony, 1616 01:19:07,960 --> 01:19:09,599 Speaker 2: of which there seemed to be a lot of them. 1617 01:19:10,000 --> 01:19:11,800 Speaker 2: And one of the things they do at the citizenship 1618 01:19:11,840 --> 01:19:13,800 Speaker 2: ceremony is go hey, guys, one of the great things 1619 01:19:13,840 --> 01:19:16,960 Speaker 2: about being an Australian is you can vote now. Is 1620 01:19:17,320 --> 01:19:20,400 Speaker 2: I would say that's one of them. You know that's legit? 1621 01:19:20,880 --> 01:19:21,360 Speaker 2: Or is it? 1622 01:19:21,640 --> 01:19:21,720 Speaker 15: So? 1623 01:19:21,920 --> 01:19:23,400 Speaker 2: Is this a scandal or is this legit? 1624 01:19:24,720 --> 01:19:30,800 Speaker 23: Its industrial sized vote rigging by labor. I can't put 1625 01:19:30,840 --> 01:19:33,559 Speaker 23: it any more bluntly. And they're trying to stack seats 1626 01:19:33,560 --> 01:19:36,120 Speaker 23: in Western Sydney. You explained to me how at Homebush 1627 01:19:36,160 --> 01:19:39,200 Speaker 23: Stadium last Friday, and it went on again on Saturday 1628 01:19:39,240 --> 01:19:41,639 Speaker 23: and Sunday. You can put through six and a half 1629 01:19:41,760 --> 01:19:46,920 Speaker 23: thousand new citizens to Australia in three days and it's 1630 01:19:46,960 --> 01:19:49,320 Speaker 23: going to be twelve and a half thousand before the election. 1631 01:19:49,920 --> 01:19:53,200 Speaker 23: You have to have your passport, well your citizenship a 1632 01:19:53,240 --> 01:19:56,400 Speaker 23: week before you can actually vote in an election. And 1633 01:19:56,520 --> 01:19:59,439 Speaker 23: Tony Burt turned up there. He never goes to these things, 1634 01:19:59,520 --> 01:20:04,080 Speaker 23: is the Home Affairs Minister, And up on the big 1635 01:20:04,120 --> 01:20:07,400 Speaker 23: screen was the Australian Electric Commission giving advice on how 1636 01:20:07,439 --> 01:20:11,080 Speaker 23: you can go and vote. I mean, it's unbelievable and 1637 01:20:11,560 --> 01:20:13,360 Speaker 23: Laver seems to think they can just get away with 1638 01:20:13,360 --> 01:20:14,920 Speaker 23: this and no one's going to be critical of it. 1639 01:20:14,920 --> 01:20:19,599 Speaker 23: It is very clearly an attempt to win seats of 1640 01:20:20,240 --> 01:20:23,719 Speaker 23: margins they hold by five percent or less in Western Sydney. 1641 01:20:23,760 --> 01:20:25,599 Speaker 23: Nothing was sure than that. 1642 01:20:25,800 --> 01:20:28,320 Speaker 2: When your plane takes off today, will you be able 1643 01:20:28,320 --> 01:20:29,760 Speaker 2: to see the Chinese warships? 1644 01:20:31,720 --> 01:20:31,880 Speaker 12: Well? 1645 01:20:31,880 --> 01:20:33,840 Speaker 23: If I would love to be coming to Auckland again, 1646 01:20:33,880 --> 01:20:35,240 Speaker 23: because you know how much I loved it when I 1647 01:20:35,240 --> 01:20:38,800 Speaker 23: was there ever summer. But no, I'm going west. I'm 1648 01:20:38,800 --> 01:20:43,120 Speaker 23: going to my old hometown of Adelaide. They say we're overreacting. 1649 01:20:43,640 --> 01:20:46,880 Speaker 23: We do live firing in the South China Sea. They say, 1650 01:20:46,920 --> 01:20:49,600 Speaker 23: settle down, We're not doing anything you don't do. I 1651 01:20:49,640 --> 01:20:51,960 Speaker 23: think the only problem with that is I think they 1652 01:20:51,960 --> 01:20:54,320 Speaker 23: didn't tell us very quickly that they're about to use 1653 01:20:54,360 --> 01:20:57,839 Speaker 23: live ammunition. That's why those flights were diverted on Friday. 1654 01:20:58,720 --> 01:21:00,680 Speaker 2: I know that Jim Chalmers the Tree is heading to 1655 01:21:00,760 --> 01:21:03,599 Speaker 2: Washington as we speak with as tariffs. Does he he stand? 1656 01:21:03,640 --> 01:21:06,439 Speaker 2: Do they believe they can twist Trump's arm or not. 1657 01:21:08,760 --> 01:21:12,439 Speaker 23: Ah, it's more probably to be seen to be doing 1658 01:21:12,479 --> 01:21:15,519 Speaker 23: something rather than actually twisting his arm. I mean the 1659 01:21:15,560 --> 01:21:19,720 Speaker 23: ambassadors Kevin rud who you know, insulted Donald Trump up 1660 01:21:19,720 --> 01:21:22,360 Speaker 23: and down all over the place for many years. So 1661 01:21:22,640 --> 01:21:25,280 Speaker 23: I don't know that our relationships with Trump are great. 1662 01:21:25,640 --> 01:21:28,840 Speaker 23: They may be okay with other Republicans within the within 1663 01:21:28,880 --> 01:21:31,960 Speaker 23: the Trump administration, but I wouldn't be that hopeful. 1664 01:21:32,520 --> 01:21:34,759 Speaker 2: All Right, might fly well, talk to you Wednesday. Appreciate 1665 01:21:34,800 --> 01:21:36,479 Speaker 2: it very much. The Price Out of Australia on his 1666 01:21:36,520 --> 01:21:38,439 Speaker 2: way to the airport seventeen minutes away from. 1667 01:21:38,320 --> 01:21:42,680 Speaker 17: Nine International correspondence with ends an eye insurance, peace of 1668 01:21:42,720 --> 01:21:44,080 Speaker 17: mind for New Zealand business. 1669 01:21:48,520 --> 01:21:52,960 Speaker 1: The Mike Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered 1670 01:21:52,960 --> 01:21:53,679 Speaker 1: by News Talks. 1671 01:21:53,680 --> 01:21:57,919 Speaker 2: That'd be thirteen away from nine. Not since I referenced 1672 01:21:57,920 --> 01:22:00,400 Speaker 2: this earlier, but to look it up. If you interested 1673 01:22:00,400 --> 01:22:03,920 Speaker 2: in the Chinese mcryan military leader and strategy, is probably 1674 01:22:03,960 --> 01:22:05,439 Speaker 2: time we got them back on the program. Not since 1675 01:22:05,479 --> 01:22:08,639 Speaker 2: the Japanese attacks on Newcastle and inside Sydney Harbour over 1676 01:22:08,680 --> 01:22:10,679 Speaker 2: the period of May thirty won through June Eate nineteen 1677 01:22:10,760 --> 01:22:13,920 Speaker 2: forty two, has this nation faced the prospect of an 1678 01:22:13,920 --> 01:22:17,080 Speaker 2: aggressive threat against our shores. Now shipping such as the 1679 01:22:17,080 --> 01:22:19,720 Speaker 2: one we've witnessed in the past twenty four hours. It 1680 01:22:19,800 --> 01:22:23,080 Speaker 2: is the most brazen deployment of the People's Liberation Army 1681 01:22:23,160 --> 01:22:25,920 Speaker 2: Navy into waters adjacent to Australia. The most obvious reason 1682 01:22:26,600 --> 01:22:28,640 Speaker 2: is to point out that if Australia conducts freedom of 1683 01:22:28,720 --> 01:22:32,040 Speaker 2: navigation exercises off the Chinese coast, China can and will reciprocate. 1684 01:22:32,080 --> 01:22:34,920 Speaker 2: But unlike China, Australia doesn't have a nine dot line 1685 01:22:35,280 --> 01:22:37,719 Speaker 2: beyond the twelve mile limit where it seeks to deny 1686 01:22:37,720 --> 01:22:40,559 Speaker 2: international maritime traffic. China does, and this is very significant 1687 01:22:40,600 --> 01:22:45,000 Speaker 2: difference between these activities. Another reason to normalize Chinese military 1688 01:22:45,040 --> 01:22:47,719 Speaker 2: activity in our region. Their security arrangement with the Solomons 1689 01:22:47,760 --> 01:22:50,639 Speaker 2: was calculated to improve access by Chinese military and commercial 1690 01:22:50,760 --> 01:22:54,160 Speaker 2: entities and extend Chinese influence. The Chinese will probably now 1691 01:22:54,200 --> 01:22:57,840 Speaker 2: normalize these kinds of naval deployments around Australia. To constantly 1692 01:22:57,880 --> 01:23:02,280 Speaker 2: demonstrate how vulnerable we are to matur time interference of 1693 01:23:02,400 --> 01:23:05,160 Speaker 2: trade and the inflow of fuel and other critical supplies 1694 01:23:05,200 --> 01:23:08,120 Speaker 2: no longer made here, which is an interesting comment. Our 1695 01:23:08,120 --> 01:23:11,120 Speaker 2: thoughts on Kerry's program with the Prime Minister on Friday. 1696 01:23:11,600 --> 01:23:14,160 Speaker 2: He's suggesting, I don't know whether he's making it up 1697 01:23:14,160 --> 01:23:15,759 Speaker 2: as he goes along, and I'm going to check tomorrow 1698 01:23:15,880 --> 01:23:18,320 Speaker 2: building our own refinery and you go, but we had 1699 01:23:18,320 --> 01:23:20,320 Speaker 2: a refinery, Oh yes we did, but they filled it 1700 01:23:20,360 --> 01:23:23,439 Speaker 2: with concrete in a move that you really now look 1701 01:23:23,479 --> 01:23:26,360 Speaker 2: at and go, did you need to do that or 1702 01:23:26,479 --> 01:23:29,400 Speaker 2: was that a bit deliberate? Anyway? As it continues, will 1703 01:23:29,439 --> 01:23:32,240 Speaker 2: also be designed to make the Australian Defense Force reassess 1704 01:23:32,280 --> 01:23:35,360 Speaker 2: its force posture. Chinese want to force Australia to keep 1705 01:23:35,360 --> 01:23:38,679 Speaker 2: it chips closer to home, a rehearsal for the kind 1706 01:23:38,720 --> 01:23:41,720 Speaker 2: of South seas operations they might conduct. A bottle up 1707 01:23:41,760 --> 01:23:45,320 Speaker 2: the Australian Navy in home waters, so it cannot help Taiwan, 1708 01:23:45,439 --> 01:23:50,439 Speaker 2: Japan or America in any Northwest Asian security crisis. This 1709 01:23:50,600 --> 01:23:57,639 Speaker 2: Chinese operation fundamentally changes keywords, fundamentally changes Australia's security outlook. 1710 01:23:57,960 --> 01:24:01,840 Speaker 2: We're dealing with an aggressive, irresponsible PLA that so far 1711 01:24:01,920 --> 01:24:05,880 Speaker 2: Australia showed little capacity or willingness to deter now with 1712 01:24:05,920 --> 01:24:08,880 Speaker 2: them live firing off Australia's coast might this be the 1713 01:24:09,000 --> 01:24:12,559 Speaker 2: shock our politicians need to fund the ready lethal and 1714 01:24:12,680 --> 01:24:17,240 Speaker 2: large adf We need to count twenty first century authoritarianism. 1715 01:24:17,560 --> 01:24:20,720 Speaker 2: And if that applies to them, surely it applies to 1716 01:24:20,840 --> 01:24:21,479 Speaker 2: us as well. 1717 01:24:21,720 --> 01:24:26,360 Speaker 1: Ten to nine The Mike Asking Breakfast with Bailey's Real 1718 01:24:26,479 --> 01:24:27,479 Speaker 1: Estate News togs. 1719 01:24:27,479 --> 01:24:30,559 Speaker 2: They another piece of very good reading from Greg Smith. 1720 01:24:30,600 --> 01:24:33,400 Speaker 2: How very own Gregsmith at Devin Funds we got in 1721 01:24:33,439 --> 01:24:36,960 Speaker 2: the Herald yesterday why New Zealand should consider more asset sales. 1722 01:24:37,080 --> 01:24:39,840 Speaker 2: I don't know. My sense of it is, my gut 1723 01:24:39,920 --> 01:24:42,360 Speaker 2: sense of it is that I just don't think David 1724 01:24:42,360 --> 01:24:45,519 Speaker 2: Seymour will be cheering him on. Of course, I just 1725 01:24:45,640 --> 01:24:47,800 Speaker 2: don't get the sense that there's enough there to sell. 1726 01:24:48,200 --> 01:24:53,559 Speaker 2: He argues, in a fairly comprehensive sort of peace, that 1727 01:24:53,600 --> 01:24:55,479 Speaker 2: there's a lot of money there to be raised. He 1728 01:24:56,080 --> 01:25:02,200 Speaker 2: reckons you should sell the remaining shares in Electrius, So Meridian, Mercury, Genesis, 1729 01:25:02,800 --> 01:25:08,600 Speaker 2: flick those. He reckons, that's fifteen billion transpower. Do you 1730 01:25:08,680 --> 01:25:13,479 Speaker 2: privatize a monopoly? And what happens when that goes bust? 1731 01:25:13,600 --> 01:25:16,559 Speaker 2: Now here's the counter He offers counter arguments. In there, 1732 01:25:16,960 --> 01:25:24,800 Speaker 2: he offers examples of good successful operations and sales, Royal Mail, Medibank, 1733 01:25:24,840 --> 01:25:28,120 Speaker 2: private Snowy Hydro in Australia, Ports of Melbourne, Queensland motorways. 1734 01:25:28,600 --> 01:25:30,799 Speaker 2: So there's plenty of good examples. But I can counter 1735 01:25:31,520 --> 01:25:33,400 Speaker 2: ask the people, the good people in Britain at the 1736 01:25:33,439 --> 01:25:35,920 Speaker 2: moment who get their water from Thameswater, who are about 1737 01:25:35,960 --> 01:25:37,960 Speaker 2: to go under and we'll probably need some sort of 1738 01:25:38,000 --> 01:25:40,559 Speaker 2: bailout from the government, whether that privatization was a good idea. 1739 01:25:41,120 --> 01:25:43,680 Speaker 2: Ask the people in South Australia at Whala, whether the 1740 01:25:43,680 --> 01:25:45,600 Speaker 2: billionaire who rolled into town and said I'm going to 1741 01:25:45,640 --> 01:25:47,200 Speaker 2: make lots of steel and make you lots of money, 1742 01:25:47,479 --> 01:25:49,800 Speaker 2: the government bailout that's just going on there, whether that 1743 01:25:49,920 --> 01:25:54,080 Speaker 2: privatization was a good idea. He counter argues with the 1744 01:25:54,240 --> 01:25:57,000 Speaker 2: it's all how you sell it routine. So in other words, 1745 01:25:57,000 --> 01:25:58,720 Speaker 2: you don't just flick it off like we flicked off 1746 01:25:58,800 --> 01:26:02,080 Speaker 2: KiwiRail all those years ago. You do it properly and 1747 01:26:02,120 --> 01:26:05,040 Speaker 2: you can safeguard yourself. I'm not one hundred percent convinced 1748 01:26:05,040 --> 01:26:07,880 Speaker 2: there's the appetite in this country or enough of this 1749 01:26:07,920 --> 01:26:09,800 Speaker 2: sort of He says, port of Towering a very good 1750 01:26:09,800 --> 01:26:12,719 Speaker 2: example of someone that got flicked off and publicly listed 1751 01:26:12,720 --> 01:26:15,400 Speaker 2: in as going gangbusters. Yep, good point, and then he says, 1752 01:26:15,439 --> 01:26:18,360 Speaker 2: also look at Port of Auckland councilone complete basket case. 1753 01:26:18,640 --> 01:26:24,280 Speaker 2: Good point. So anyway, it's well worth reading from Donald 1754 01:26:24,320 --> 01:26:27,400 Speaker 2: Trump this morning, just moments ago. Looks like the Conservative 1755 01:26:27,400 --> 01:26:29,639 Speaker 2: Party in Germany has one very big the very big 1756 01:26:29,680 --> 01:26:33,280 Speaker 2: and highly anticipated election. Well have they? Much like the USA, 1757 01:26:33,360 --> 01:26:35,439 Speaker 2: the people of Germany got tired of the no common 1758 01:26:35,520 --> 01:26:38,920 Speaker 2: sense agenda, especially on energy and immigration, that has prevailed 1759 01:26:38,960 --> 01:26:40,360 Speaker 2: for so many years. This is a great day for 1760 01:26:40,439 --> 01:26:42,400 Speaker 2: Germany and for the United States of America under the 1761 01:26:42,479 --> 01:26:46,120 Speaker 2: leadership of a gentleman named Donald J. Trump. Congratulations to all. 1762 01:26:46,120 --> 01:26:47,200 Speaker 2: Many more victories to follow. 1763 01:26:47,240 --> 01:26:49,920 Speaker 21: Well, So Trump won the German election. 1764 01:26:51,560 --> 01:26:53,519 Speaker 2: And not only did he not win the German election, 1765 01:26:53,600 --> 01:26:55,559 Speaker 2: the people he's referring to, the AfD, he didn't win 1766 01:26:55,600 --> 01:27:00,439 Speaker 2: it either, So that's kind of stupid. And not only 1767 01:27:00,479 --> 01:27:03,240 Speaker 2: didn't they win it, they came second. And they're not 1768 01:27:03,280 --> 01:27:06,599 Speaker 2: going to be in the government. So does coming second 1769 01:27:06,680 --> 01:27:10,400 Speaker 2: and not having any control over the country equal a victory? 1770 01:27:11,760 --> 01:27:13,839 Speaker 2: I wouldn't have thought so. Five minutes away. 1771 01:27:13,640 --> 01:27:18,200 Speaker 1: From nine trending now quit chemist Warehouse, the real House 1772 01:27:18,240 --> 01:27:18,920 Speaker 1: of Vitamins. 1773 01:27:19,640 --> 01:27:22,000 Speaker 2: Although if he's talking generally about a move to the right, 1774 01:27:22,040 --> 01:27:24,800 Speaker 2: he probably is. But then I've always seen them as 1775 01:27:24,800 --> 01:27:27,000 Speaker 2: a center right sort of country. Anyway, Merkle blew it 1776 01:27:27,040 --> 01:27:28,840 Speaker 2: with a one million people and they all went nuts, 1777 01:27:28,880 --> 01:27:31,200 Speaker 2: and a vot for somebody else actually, speaking of you. 1778 01:27:31,560 --> 01:27:36,679 Speaker 1: Trending now quick chemist warehouse, the real house of vitamins. 1779 01:27:36,080 --> 01:27:39,240 Speaker 2: Just drifted slightly there. Italy France six nations. If you 1780 01:27:39,280 --> 01:27:41,360 Speaker 2: hadn't heard the score, seventy three twenty four, Italy are 1781 01:27:41,439 --> 01:27:43,479 Speaker 2: not that good at rugby. But then again, France normally 1782 01:27:43,479 --> 01:27:47,000 Speaker 2: aren't that good. Fans agreed that Italy, though won the anthem. 1783 01:27:47,000 --> 01:27:48,240 Speaker 2: Now there's a bit of a blip at the start 1784 01:27:48,280 --> 01:27:50,400 Speaker 2: of the French one.
