We also 9 00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:30,760 Speaker 2: have the bill, and you're not going to like the bill. 10 00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:36,000 Speaker 2: Bryan Bridge nine the number to text. Donald Trump has 11 00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:38,519 Speaker 2: every writer, as every president does, to crack down on 12 00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:42,400 Speaker 2: the American border. There are problems there that we down 13 00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:45,720 Speaker 2: here in safe little old New Zealand just do not understand. 14 00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:48,879 Speaker 2: Illegal migration sounds to us like a far away and 15 00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:52,760 Speaker 2: non threatening concept, because well it is. Thank you, ocean. 16 00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:57,400 Speaker 2: If you believe everything that the liberal international media serves 17 00:00:57,440 --> 00:00:59,319 Speaker 2: up on a silver platter for you, and that this 18 00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:03,360 Speaker 2: is an issue invented by tyrants like Trump to retain 19 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:08,839 Speaker 2: their grip on power, explain Starmer, the lovely lefty Labour 20 00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:12,200 Speaker 2: leader of Great Britain. In case you missed it. Starmer 21 00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:15,319 Speaker 2: this week has signed a piece of paper asking Europe 22 00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:19,880 Speaker 2: to kindly redefine human rights because the current definition is 23 00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:22,720 Speaker 2: well a little too generous, thank you very much. Yes, 24 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:26,240 Speaker 2: Labour's man at number ten wants to narrow human rights. 25 00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:29,000 Speaker 2: He wants to be able to kick more asylum seekers 26 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 2: out of Britain because the cost, the burden, the daily 27 00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:37,120 Speaker 2: arrivals of boats simply unsustainable and the British public had 28 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 2: enough of it ages ago. Enter Farage right. So this 29 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,240 Speaker 2: is not a figment of a dictator's imagination, but a 30 00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:49,360 Speaker 2: genuine political problem. Back to Trump, He's cracking down at 31 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:52,760 Speaker 2: the border friend or foe, and new rules are coming 32 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:57,160 Speaker 2: for us Keiweks and other visa waiver countries. These apply 33 00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:00,400 Speaker 2: to tourists, so a visit to Hawaii is all it's 34 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 2: going to take for you. In order to gain entry, 35 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 2: you will have to hand over five years of your 36 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:10,000 Speaker 2: social media activity. It's mandatory, by the way. You're going 37 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 2: to have to do this, this is their intention. You'll 38 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:15,960 Speaker 2: need to supply your telephone numbers for every phone number 39 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:17,960 Speaker 2: you've used in the past five years. Can you even 40 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:20,920 Speaker 2: remember every email address that you have used for the 41 00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 2: past decade. How many jobs have you had in that time? 42 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,919 Speaker 2: How many work email addresses have you had in that time? 43 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:30,240 Speaker 2: Can you remember them all? Now? I'm no terrorist, but 44 00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 2: this sounds like a lot, doesn't it. So I probably 45 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:37,240 Speaker 2: won't be visiting America anytime soon. If you had to 46 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:38,960 Speaker 2: go for a funeral, if you had to go for 47 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 2: an event, something important, you would. But to be honest, 48 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 2: I'd probably, on balance just go to Mexico, Ryan Bridge, 49 00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:49,840 Speaker 2: You're trying to get over a bureaucratic wall to the 50 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:53,160 Speaker 2: United States. Just sounds too hard basket to me. Nine 51 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:57,240 Speaker 2: minutes after four, let's go now to hemp the Regulation Ministry. 52 00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 2: David Seymour's on the charge here. Regulation Ministry cutting red 53 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 2: tape for hemp growers. Growers will need to notify MPI 54 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 2: and police, but will no longer need a license to 55 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:11,720 Speaker 2: grow and handle it for legal purposes. The change is 56 00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 2: expected to bring in an extra forty million bucks in 57 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,480 Speaker 2: the first two decades. Brad Lakes, co founder of The Brothers, 58 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 2: Green with me this afternoon. Hey Brad, Hi, Ryan, good 59 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:22,080 Speaker 2: to have you on the show. What are you doing 60 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 2: with hemp? Brad? 61 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 3: We are basically taking the raw seed and we've got 62 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:31,120 Speaker 3: a factory here in christ Church and also over in Sydney, 63 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 3: and basically we take that raw seed right through to 64 00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 3: a range of retail health supplements, mainly focusing on joint 65 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 3: health and sleep right. 66 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:44,840 Speaker 2: And so what are the regulations that have been cut 67 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:47,840 Speaker 2: that will benefit you? Well, how are they strangling you 68 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 2: at the moment? 69 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 3: Well, I think, first of all, really you know the 70 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 3: fact that the regulations sit under the Ministry of Health 71 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 3: and the way they're sort of being viewed. I think 72 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 3: even with this licensing, it's still sitting under the Ministry 73 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 3: of Health, it's still lumps it alongside that, like I 74 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 3: guess that cannabis regulation. This just really means, as far 75 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 3: as I can sort of read into it, is that 76 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 3: we're not going to need to do I guess a 77 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 3: lot of the administration work that's required of recording seed 78 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 3: coming in and out of the factory and also for 79 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,720 Speaker 3: our growers are just not going to have the requirement 80 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:26,840 Speaker 3: each year to be submitting their documentation. And I think 81 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:29,840 Speaker 3: listening to David today, it meant that also it doesn't 82 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 3: matter where it's growing around New Zealand. So from that perspective, 83 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 3: it now means there's a lot more area, probably a 84 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 3: lot closer to residential, you know, because previously couldn't grow 85 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:44,360 Speaker 3: out any farms, schools, or had to be like basically 86 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,880 Speaker 3: blocked by a broad maze or something like that if 87 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:49,320 Speaker 3: it was on a public road or so, just all 88 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:53,159 Speaker 3: those little things that I think will just make generally easier. 89 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:57,279 Speaker 3: But it's it's probably don't need mean to sound ungrateful, 90 00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:01,120 Speaker 3: but it probably not as impactful I could think at 91 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:05,120 Speaker 3: the commercial end as some other changes could be. 92 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:07,520 Speaker 2: What's the big deal? Why is everyone so worried about him? 93 00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:09,440 Speaker 2: Is it because it just sort of looks a little 94 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 2: bit like weed? Because you can't get high off him, 95 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:12,360 Speaker 2: can you? So what's the problem? 96 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 4: No? 97 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 3: No, And then I mean most people have probably driven 98 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 3: past the crop and you wouldn't even you wouldn't even 99 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:18,640 Speaker 3: think it was him. I mean most people don't have 100 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 3: probably never even seen a cannabis plant in their life 101 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,839 Speaker 3: other than a photo. So I mean it doesn't look 102 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:28,159 Speaker 3: anything really like you know, what you'd think of marijuana 103 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 3: plant looks like in a crop. It just sort of 104 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 3: looks like a normal crop probably, So yeah, And I 105 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 3: think I think what we sort of dealing with is, 106 00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:39,839 Speaker 3: you know, these a regulations put in place a long 107 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 3: time ago that we're based on, you know, heavy industry 108 00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:53,159 Speaker 3: suggestions and you know, basically a perception on cannabis and 109 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 3: particularly him, that it was the same as marijuana and 110 00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:57,680 Speaker 3: should have been treated the same. So I think we're 111 00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 3: still probably a long way from where I think heap 112 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,200 Speaker 3: should be, which should just be treated exactly like wheat. 113 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:06,120 Speaker 3: It should be with sitting with MPI and every part 114 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,560 Speaker 3: of that plant as long as it's obviously sits underneath 115 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,919 Speaker 3: that THHC level of one percent should be available for 116 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:15,160 Speaker 3: anyone to use, just like a wheat crop is available 117 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:17,520 Speaker 3: for anyone can do whatever they want with a wheat crop. 118 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 2: Can you sell the seeds? Are you going to sell 119 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 2: the seeds? 120 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:22,240 Speaker 3: Well, I think it would be interesting to see what 121 00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:25,039 Speaker 3: comes out of what the final law states. But the 122 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 3: fact you don't like the licensing, as far as I 123 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:30,000 Speaker 3: can see, is the only thing holding would be the 124 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 3: only thing that would stop us from selling seed to anyone, 125 00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:37,279 Speaker 3: because you had to sell it to a license, like 126 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 3: someone with a hemp license. But I'm pretty excited because 127 00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 3: it could mean that we could just be selling seeds 128 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 3: directly to anyone around New Zealand. 129 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 2: On the website, right, well, and what would people do 130 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 2: with seeds? Go their own hemp at home and then 131 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:49,480 Speaker 2: do well. 132 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 3: Well, they could do yeah, they could just grow their 133 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:55,240 Speaker 3: own like I think, and dott Oh, I mean, you 134 00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:58,280 Speaker 3: could get the seeds yourself. I think people you know, 135 00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 3: the tea people making teas with the leaves. There's like yeah, 136 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 3: I think. I mean, I guess at a commercial level, 137 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 3: we obviously need like quite a bit to do whatever. 138 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,800 Speaker 3: But I think just even the novelty of people being 139 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 3: able to grow hemp in their backyard, to me sounds 140 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:17,360 Speaker 3: like a I don't know, quite a cool gardening gardening 141 00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 3: feature exercise. 142 00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 2: Brad Preuth, appreciate you, Sarian, thanks for being on the show. 143 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 2: Brad Bradlake, co founder of The Brothers Green, talking about 144 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 2: the deregulation of the hemp industry. I'm not going to 145 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:29,040 Speaker 2: stay a huge amount of money. I think it's forty 146 00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 2: million dollars over several years, sorry, over several decades. Forty 147 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:35,880 Speaker 2: million over several decades. But I suppose you're going to 148 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:38,240 Speaker 2: start somewhere and it's not a massive industry to begin with, 149 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:41,160 Speaker 2: is it.

It's 191 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:38,840 Speaker 5: problematic because you're betting on so many different games at 192 00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 5: the same time. But I'm looking either doing a big 193 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:44,720 Speaker 5: multi around a whole lot of American sports.

So that's I'm looking for that. 201 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:10,080 Speaker 2: Most well Now, staying in Wellington, Jason Holland returns to 202 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:10,680 Speaker 2: the Hurricanes. 203 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:13,760 Speaker 5: He does it says a lot about the culture of 204 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 5: the All Blacks. That's all I can glean from that. 205 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 5: When you've got a guy who's rugby mad, played the game, 206 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:21,880 Speaker 5: coach the game. He was the head coach of the Hurricanes, 207 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 5: got to the top of the tree, which is the 208 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 5: assistant coach of the All Blacks, there's one step away. 209 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:28,360 Speaker 5: Lasted a couple of years. I mean, you know what 210 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 5: this is not for me. He's gone back. He's obviously 211 00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 5: not say a rugby because he's assistant coach back and 212 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:36,000 Speaker 5: when into the Hurricane, so he's like that to me. 213 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 5: Says a lot about the culture.

This is how you 237 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:37,240 Speaker 2: get your tourist visa in America in August. The social 238 00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:40,680 Speaker 2: media disclosure was optional, Yes, it would have been. But 239 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 2: what they've come out today and said is that they 240 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,680 Speaker 2: want to make it mandatory. So it's not mandatory yet, 241 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:48,560 Speaker 2: but they want to make it mandatory anyway. Well, more 242 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 2: questions for the lawyer. We got on after five News Talks. 243 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:55,080 Speaker 1: The be digging deeper into the d's headlines. It's Ryan 244 00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:57,960 Speaker 1: Bridge on hither duple c Ellen Tree with one New 245 00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:01,920 Speaker 1: Zealand coverage like no one else News TALKSB. 246 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 2: Four twenty four on News TALKSB. So the councils, you know, 247 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 2: with the local water done well, which is the National 248 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 2: Party's answer to three Waters which is now gone ski. 249 00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 2: So the councils have had to submit their plans basically 250 00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:17,280 Speaker 2: show their working organize themselves. How are you actually going 251 00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:19,320 Speaker 2: to deliver this? And so they have done that. That 252 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 2: step has been taken. Local government Missus Simon Watts puts 253 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 2: out a statement today. He says all plans have now 254 00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:29,320 Speaker 2: been signed off. Forty four councils are handing over the 255 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 2: responsibility to a separate company, to a CCO like we 256 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:34,680 Speaker 2: have here in Auckland like you have in other parts 257 00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:39,120 Speaker 2: of the country too. And the cost estimate this is 258 00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:42,960 Speaker 2: from initially the councils when they got together they decided, oh, 259 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:44,959 Speaker 2: this is what we think the water will cost us 260 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 2: the assets and from that point to this point the 261 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:52,560 Speaker 2: cost is ballooned by nine billion dollars, which is not 262 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:56,319 Speaker 2: an insignificant number, is it nine billion dollars? The total 263 00:12:56,679 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 2: estimated investment across you know, decades is close to fifty billion, 264 00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:06,840 Speaker 2: so a nine billion increase is pretty significant. However, the 265 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:10,319 Speaker 2: Minister is arguing that this is because the councils are 266 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:13,240 Speaker 2: now required to ensure that the capital investment that they 267 00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:17,679 Speaker 2: are making is sufficient to achieve compliance. So what exactly 268 00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 2: does that mean, Well we'll ask minister Watts. We should 269 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 2: ask mister Watts after six o'clock this evening. 270 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:24,040 Speaker 4: Ryan Bridge. 271 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:27,640 Speaker 2: Now to this debate between Nicola and Ruth, which I'm 272 00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:34,960 Speaker 2: told joke us to the raid here, it's all getting 273 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:39,000 Speaker 2: a bit silly. So today Flurfit Simons from the PSA 274 00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:41,720 Speaker 2: comes out and she's saying that this is a right 275 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:45,320 Speaker 2: wing stunt. She even called it a read what is it? 276 00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:48,760 Speaker 2: A false flag event? Like this is getting bizarre. It's 277 00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 2: getting ridiculous. And then Nichola Willis comes out and says 278 00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:57,280 Speaker 2: this when asked a question about clerfit simons have a listen. 279 00:13:57,480 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 7: Pounds to the left of link joke us to the right. 280 00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:02,520 Speaker 7: I'm stuck in the middle. And that's where New Zealand 281 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 7: is too. 282 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:12,640 Speaker 2: Later, the whole thing has become fascical. It was interesting yesterday. 283 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:17,040 Speaker 2: Today it's fascical. Apparently it's going to happen next week. 284 00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:20,760 Speaker 2: It'll be moderated by the spin off, it'll be open 285 00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:26,240 Speaker 2: for all media to broadcast. I just thought it was 286 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:29,160 Speaker 2: like a bit of a fun Christmas debate, you know, 287 00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:32,360 Speaker 2: a bit of a nap started with a chocolate fudge, 288 00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:35,080 Speaker 2: you know, let's have a bit of fun before Christmas, 289 00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:38,640 Speaker 2: and it's sort of morphed into this quite dramatic school 290 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:42,640 Speaker 2: end of the year production. Nichola Willis's office saying we 291 00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 2: want all media to be in attendant, like it's the 292 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:49,680 Speaker 2: most important political debate this country's ever seen. It's not 293 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 2: going to be there, but we'll still we'll still pay attention, 294 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:55,680 Speaker 2: we'll still bring you whatever happens next week. Comes after 295 00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 2: the roofs of the half yearly Economic Update of course, 296 00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 2: so there you go. It will happen. It won't happen 297 00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:05,000 Speaker 2: on this show. I can tell you that much. You're 298 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 2: on News Talks. There'd be coming up to or thirty 299 00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:11,760 Speaker 2: new Sport Weather. Then we're over to Murray Olds in Australia. 300 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 8: Thanks on that. 301 00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:37,760 Speaker 1: Today's Newsmakers talk to Ryan first, Ryan Bridge on Hither 302 00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 1: dupilusy Ellen Drive with one New Zealand and the power 303 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 1: of Satellite Mobile News Talks d Bay from. 304 00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 2: Five News Talks. It'd be great to have your company. 305 00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:51,320 Speaker 2: We'll get to Simmy and Brown on the councer Cancer 306 00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 2: out Look. I should say after five o'clock we'll get 307 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:56,200 Speaker 2: to Murray Olds out of Australia very shortly. You know 308 00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:59,080 Speaker 2: Elon Musk, richest man in the world. You know him 309 00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:02,680 Speaker 2: with eight hundred billion New Zealand dollars. Just let that 310 00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:05,440 Speaker 2: sink in for a second. Next year he could double 311 00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:08,320 Speaker 2: that number and not through the Tesla. I know you're 312 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 2: thinking about the Tesla performance targets that they have set. 313 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 2: There are longer term slower burn type thing. This is 314 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 2: from SpaceX going public in twenty twenty six. They are 315 00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:22,120 Speaker 2: prepping for an IPO and seeking to raise reportedly thirty 316 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:26,080 Speaker 2: billion dollars from that. Now Elon Musk's steak in SpaceX 317 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 2: is two hundred and thirty billion dollars. This is Bloomberg 318 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:32,200 Speaker 2: reporting the numbers on this today. So his steak is 319 00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:35,080 Speaker 2: two hundred and thirty billion New Zealand that would be 320 00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:39,760 Speaker 2: worth more than a trillion dollars if they float this 321 00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:43,520 Speaker 2: and things go well. Now his overall fortune that would 322 00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 2: grow to one point six trillion dollars next year. He 323 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:51,000 Speaker 2: would be the world's first trillionaire. Now, this depends on 324 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:53,120 Speaker 2: a whole bunch of stuff. Obviously, depends on where the 325 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:55,840 Speaker 2: markets are, depends on what happens with the price, and 326 00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:57,760 Speaker 2: the number that they would need to get would have 327 00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:00,400 Speaker 2: to at least match or be better than this Saudia 328 00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:04,000 Speaker 2: Ramco Ipo from twenty nineteen. You'll remember that because it 329 00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:07,080 Speaker 2: was the biggest and still is the biggest. Their revenue 330 00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:12,160 Speaker 2: was three hundred and sixty billion dollars.

One thing led to another and the other. 382 00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:52,399 Speaker 12: The two older people die, the man and the woman. 383 00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:59,160 Speaker 12: Now Greg Lynn tracked down by police and he went 384 00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:02,560 Speaker 12: to trial a qu of murdering both of the people. 385 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:06,359 Speaker 12: He was found guilty after a seven day jury deliberation. 386 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:09,440 Speaker 12: They found him guilty of murdering the woman she was 387 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:13,879 Speaker 12: aged seventy three, and not guilty. He was clear of 388 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:17,560 Speaker 12: murdering her partner seventy four. Now he denied the charge. 389 00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:20,560 Speaker 12: He said both of the people died accidentally and he 390 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:24,880 Speaker 12: had panicked. He'd panicked after their argument. They both died accidentally, 391 00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:27,240 Speaker 12: and he put the bodies into the back of his trailer, 392 00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:30,119 Speaker 12: hit their remains in the bush before returning later, and 393 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:33,640 Speaker 12: he hurt them. Now you know, you'd think, okay, we've 394 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:36,280 Speaker 12: got your bank to rights. But he went to the 395 00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 12: Court of Appeal, which is the highest court in Victoria, 396 00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:43,280 Speaker 12: and the three justices agreed there were serious irregularities in 397 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:46,120 Speaker 12: the trial that could not be remedied, and in fact 398 00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:50,320 Speaker 12: the conduct of the trial, the way the prosecution conducted itself, 399 00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:53,640 Speaker 12: may have resulted in the very serious injustice, so those 400 00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:57,720 Speaker 12: that murder conviction has been quashed and now he's back 401 00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:01,000 Speaker 12: and court in the new year. Yes, as trial again, 402 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:04,560 Speaker 12: the new trial ordered, but it is very celebrated case 403 00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:07,160 Speaker 12: of Victoria. More twists to come. 404 00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:11,080 Speaker 2: Now, it sounds very twisty. Now the social media history 405 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:13,440 Speaker 2: thing with the US. If you're a tourist and you 406 00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:15,439 Speaker 2: want to go over there, how are the Aussies taking it? 407 00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:21,200 Speaker 12: Well, it hasn't really come bursting of the surface yet, 408 00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:23,680 Speaker 12: but suffice to say more than a million Aussies went 409 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:27,160 Speaker 12: to the United States last year. Almost all of them 410 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:31,159 Speaker 12: used this visa waiver program that allows us New Zealand, 411 00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:34,199 Speaker 12: Britain and a bunch of countries about forty countries to 412 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:38,479 Speaker 12: go to the US for ninety days without needing a visa, 413 00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:42,119 Speaker 12: which is expensive and which is bloody time consuming. So 414 00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:46,400 Speaker 12: as I mean this, it's just burst on Australia overnight, 415 00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:48,480 Speaker 12: the same as New Zealand that okay, you have to 416 00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:51,640 Speaker 12: go back. We're my notes here, Okay, here we go. 417 00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:55,320 Speaker 12: Authorities in the United States have planning to collect very 418 00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:59,680 Speaker 12: detailed information, including five years of telephone numbers right, ten 419 00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:02,399 Speaker 12: years of email addresses who you've written to and you 420 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:08,440 Speaker 12: know twenty sixteen IP addresses metadata from photographs, biometrics, information 421 00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:11,600 Speaker 12: about your family members. I mean, it's just ridiculous. It 422 00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:14,159 Speaker 12: is so I'm not sure that the strangers are going 423 00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 12: to be that happy with this, given that there are 424 00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:18,760 Speaker 12: so many who go to the United States with a 425 00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:22,160 Speaker 12: second Trump presidency, I should say it's well down, about 426 00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:24,440 Speaker 12: six percent down in terms of travel to the United 427 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:27,639 Speaker 12: States this year by assies. So look, it remains to 428 00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:29,720 Speaker 12: be seen. But what a pain in the backside to 429 00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:32,720 Speaker 12: try and do this, just to go to the land 430 00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:35,480 Speaker 12: where you can get shot by a bloke who's eighteen. 431 00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:37,480 Speaker 12: You can buy a gun from Walmart, but he can't 432 00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:39,960 Speaker 12: get it be Italy twenty one. That makes sense, doesn't. 433 00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:41,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, muz, I think that's the point. And it's going 434 00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:43,960 Speaker 2: to be too hard basket if you if you have 435 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:47,960 Speaker 2: to go there your work conference or I don't know, funeral, fine, 436 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:51,840 Speaker 2: But if you're tossing up between London, New York London. 437 00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:53,919 Speaker 12: You know about Italy. 438 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:54,679 Speaker 4: I love Italy. 439 00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:58,720 Speaker 2: It is lovely very quickly on social media, has your 440 00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:00,480 Speaker 2: band going right? 441 00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:03,040 Speaker 13: Twenty four hours in and a lot of young people 442 00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:05,920 Speaker 13: are saying, oh, albow, get up my page, Get out 443 00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:08,679 Speaker 13: that elbow for his point, saying, listen, this is a 444 00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:11,679 Speaker 13: very tough decision, but it's necessary.

Marie Old's our Australia correspondent. It 453 00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:40,080 Speaker 2: is eighteen minutes away from five. I was driving to 454 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 2: work this morning actually, and I saw a bunch of 455 00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:45,919 Speaker 2: kids on a scooter, on of those lime scooters. And 456 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:49,040 Speaker 2: it's always freaky watching them do this because they are 457 00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:53,240 Speaker 2: two on us or sometimes I've seen once seen three 458 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:56,399 Speaker 2: on a single scooter and there were two on the 459 00:23:56,440 --> 00:23:58,639 Speaker 2: scooter and one of them fell off and he was 460 00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:02,359 Speaker 2: carrying a fishing rode And thought, actually, you know, that's 461 00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:04,760 Speaker 2: not something you probably want to complain about, because at 462 00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:07,560 Speaker 2: least they're out there doing something. You know, it might 463 00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:09,639 Speaker 2: be an electric scooter they might not be getting the 464 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:12,280 Speaker 2: physical exercise, but they're out in the sunshine. They've got 465 00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:16,520 Speaker 2: a fishing rod. Who cares. They're better out than inside, 466 00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:18,879 Speaker 2: aren't they? Seventeen to five Barri Sooper. 467 00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 1: Next the politics was centric credit, check your customers and 468 00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:23,400 Speaker 1: get payment certainty. 469 00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:26,040 Speaker 2: It is fourteen minutes away from five Barry Soapers here 470 00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:29,639 Speaker 2: politics bears good afternoon afternoon own debates on next week 471 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:31,600 Speaker 2: will be on next week. 472 00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:35,880 Speaker 6: Yeah. It's really interesting though why Nikola Willis is quite 473 00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:39,240 Speaker 6: keen on this debate because she is a debating champion. 474 00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:42,240 Speaker 6: She was at the Victoria University debating team when she 475 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:48,600 Speaker 6: was studying there and took part in international competitions. She also, 476 00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:50,320 Speaker 6: in the run up to the two thousand and eight 477 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:54,520 Speaker 6: election was working for John Key and she coached him 478 00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:59,600 Speaker 6: but also stood in as Helen Klass for debate. So look, 479 00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:03,240 Speaker 6: she's got plenty of experience and I really think that 480 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:07,359 Speaker 6: Ruth Richison given her. She's been really pushing for it. 481 00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:11,639 Speaker 6: Today they gave Nichola Willis a five pm deadline to 482 00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:16,119 Speaker 6: agree to a debate next week. She said, anytime, any place, 483 00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:18,880 Speaker 6: take it or leave it, Minister, is. 484 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:19,920 Speaker 2: This getting fasticle? 485 00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:24,280 Speaker 6: I love it? I think it's great. Are we watching? 486 00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:28,200 Speaker 6: So she of of course to remind your listeners Ruth 487 00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:31,320 Speaker 6: Richardson was the mother of all budgets. But she's also 488 00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:34,280 Speaker 6: the chair of the Taxpayers Union, which is out to 489 00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:38,399 Speaker 6: discredit Nichola Willis. Nicola Willis would argue, and I was 490 00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:42,400 Speaker 6: looking today at what she would be saying, Probably last year, 491 00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:46,359 Speaker 6: debt as a percentage of GDP remained level for the 492 00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:50,000 Speaker 6: first time, she would say in six years, spending as 493 00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:53,720 Speaker 6: a percentage of GDP foul. As she said, their physical 494 00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:57,040 Speaker 6: policy is to return the books to surplus and bend 495 00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:00,199 Speaker 6: the debt curved down. Well, that's what you'll be saying, 496 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:04,040 Speaker 6: no doubt, promoting that next week. So that is her argument. 497 00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:07,600 Speaker 6: But she's more than happy to have Ruth Richardson debate 498 00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 6: it with her. 499 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:10,760 Speaker 7: She's looking in the shadows behind this campaign and what 500 00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 7: she needs to desfront up. She needs to put her 501 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:15,200 Speaker 7: face to the arguments. She needs to have the debate 502 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 7: with me. But what I want is a straight up, 503 00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:22,040 Speaker 7: honest debate to really analyze some of the claims that 504 00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:26,040 Speaker 7: she and her associates are making, to argue about actually 505 00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 7: what the impact of some of the things that she 506 00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:30,840 Speaker 7: is calling for would be on everyday New Zealanders and 507 00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:34,359 Speaker 7: their families to test what her tolerance for human misery is. 508 00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:37,639 Speaker 6: See so you can see what the way this is 509 00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:40,520 Speaker 6: going to shape harp and one is going to be kind, 510 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:44,200 Speaker 6: the other is cruel. The cruel one is Ruth Richardson. 511 00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:49,280 Speaker 6: And I was messaging Nikola Willis today and she said 512 00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:52,320 Speaker 6: she's so keen on doing it next week, and she'll 513 00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:56,920 Speaker 6: do it on Thursday after the half year fiscal update. 514 00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,600 Speaker 6: Now you know that could not be that great for 515 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 6: the government. 516 00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:05,440 Speaker 2: Nevertheless, she'll push again, Yes, exactly great for Ruth. And 517 00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:07,760 Speaker 2: there was talk she wanted to push the debate out 518 00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:10,160 Speaker 2: till next year. I said to you, I said, this 519 00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:14,920 Speaker 2: is getting ridiculous, honestly that no one's that interesting like it. 520 00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:17,399 Speaker 2: Don't get me wrong, it's interesting. I will be watching. 521 00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:18,320 Speaker 6: Yes, of course we. 522 00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:22,760 Speaker 2: Are tragic, but I mean it's not. And also PM 523 00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:24,800 Speaker 2: wants a clear runway for it, you know, don't kick 524 00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:28,080 Speaker 2: the year off. Doesn't want Ruth and Nickler going hammer 525 00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:32,239 Speaker 2: and tongs. No, anyway, what's happening in the Parliament. 526 00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:35,320 Speaker 6: Well, the Electoral Changes Bill, it's before the House under 527 00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:40,399 Speaker 6: urgency that basically it sets a much earlier deadline for 528 00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:44,320 Speaker 6: enrolling to vote thirteen days before the election next year, 529 00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:51,840 Speaker 6: and also disqualified disqualifies all sentenced prisoners. Before the Labor 530 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:55,680 Speaker 6: Party introduced three years, if you're three years in under 531 00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:59,119 Speaker 6: in prison, you could vote. Well, this bill will do 532 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:03,040 Speaker 6: away with that. The Maldi Party's new MP your one, 533 00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:10,639 Speaker 6: your mate. She hasn't been expelled yet, incidentally, or any. 534 00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:11,080 Speaker 2: One of the few left. 535 00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:14,040 Speaker 6: That's right, that's right. She didn't make much headway with 536 00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:17,679 Speaker 6: her argument in Parliament this afternoon that it's unfair to 537 00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:21,320 Speaker 6: make people in roll thirteen days before the election, and 538 00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:24,520 Speaker 6: she was also upset that prisoners will be prevented from voting. 539 00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:27,840 Speaker 14: Does the Minister dispute evidence that shows that to nying 540 00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:33,040 Speaker 14: prisoners the right to vote undermines rehabilitation goals, increases social 541 00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:37,080 Speaker 14: exclusion and ultimately increases the risk of offending. 542 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:40,000 Speaker 15: Well, of course, I tend to think more about the 543 00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:42,360 Speaker 15: needs of the victims of crime. Currently, it is the 544 00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:45,120 Speaker 15: law that if you're in prison for three years or more, 545 00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:48,120 Speaker 15: you lose your vote, and we are extending that earlier, 546 00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:49,480 Speaker 15: and we think that's fully justified. 547 00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:53,080 Speaker 9: David Simol does he believe that new Zealanders of all 548 00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:56,760 Speaker 9: races are equally capable of fulfilling this basic requirement. 549 00:28:57,280 --> 00:29:00,000 Speaker 15: Yes, and I have always been troubled by a particular 550 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:03,120 Speaker 15: party claiming that their voters are disadvantaged by any changes 551 00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:05,880 Speaker 15: which would imply that their voters are less capable than 552 00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:08,960 Speaker 15: other voters of getting themselves enrolled, which is a strange 553 00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:10,560 Speaker 15: way to talk about your voters. 554 00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:18,200 Speaker 6: So with that already, didn't ask anymore interesting. 555 00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:20,480 Speaker 2: You know, you say, she's my friend, and she is, 556 00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:22,000 Speaker 2: and she was, but I have I tell you what 557 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:23,720 Speaker 2: tried to get her on the show a couple of times. 558 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:25,480 Speaker 2: Very just silence. 559 00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:28,200 Speaker 6: So much for friendship radio silence. 560 00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:30,920 Speaker 2: Normally when you go into politics, you're chomping at the 561 00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 2: bit to talk. 562 00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:35,400 Speaker 6: Totally part of the marketing part. You never know whether 563 00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:38,160 Speaker 6: you're Arthur or Martha, or whether you've got a seat or. 564 00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:42,480 Speaker 2: Not exactly and who's pulling the strings now very quickly 565 00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:44,800 Speaker 2: has new visa policy. This is paying dividends. 566 00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:47,360 Speaker 6: Well, it's just it's a good you know, to me, 567 00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:50,840 Speaker 6: it makes sense that if you've got a visa and 568 00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:54,720 Speaker 6: you come from China or the Pacific to visit Australia 569 00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:58,920 Speaker 6: and their visa requirements are quite strict. Then the new 570 00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:01,760 Speaker 6: visa requirement will to allow them to come on to 571 00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:05,360 Speaker 6: New Zealand without having to go through the paperwork. Again, well, 572 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:10,720 Speaker 6: that's seen in the past month ten thousand people coming 573 00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:15,240 Speaker 6: into the country and we're going to see many, many more. Obviously, 574 00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:20,200 Speaker 6: the point that the Immigration Minister made was that the 575 00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:24,760 Speaker 6: strong interest in the South Island in particular for three 576 00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:28,680 Speaker 6: percent of Chinese and Pacific visitors are going to christ 577 00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:33,080 Speaker 6: Church and onto Queenstown. So it's a very good policy 578 00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:33,280 Speaker 6: of the. 579 00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:36,960 Speaker 2: Absolutely why not just piggyback hole exactly, very good to 580 00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:39,600 Speaker 2: see your Barry Soaper Politics eight minutes to five News 581 00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:41,960 Speaker 2: Talk ZBB, Simmy and Brown.

The new report from 643 00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:47,880 Speaker 2: the Cancer Control Agency reckons the number of people diagnosed 644 00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:50,320 Speaker 2: in this country with cancer is going to double in 645 00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:54,000 Speaker 2: the next two decades. More than half of these cases, 646 00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:58,960 Speaker 2: more than half completely preventable if people would just eat healthier, 647 00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:03,200 Speaker 2: exercise more, stop drinking and put down the fags. Health Minister, 648 00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:06,440 Speaker 2: Simeon Brown is with me now evening, Minister good evening. 649 00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:09,319 Speaker 2: So in terms of the increase, is this because we're 650 00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:11,560 Speaker 2: going to have more people therefore we'll have more people 651 00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:14,480 Speaker 2: being diagnosed, or is the rate actually going to increase. 652 00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:17,640 Speaker 18: So if you look at the incident's incident rate, it's 653 00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:21,040 Speaker 18: effectively that has flatlined over the last twenty years. If 654 00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:24,520 Speaker 18: you look at the report and actually slightly decreased. What 655 00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:27,000 Speaker 18: we've got, though, is we've got an aging population and 656 00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:29,759 Speaker 18: a growing population. So this increase in the number of 657 00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:35,040 Speaker 18: cancer diagnoses is primarily being driven by a growing elderly 658 00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:39,360 Speaker 18: population and also a growing population. That's what's driving the increase, 659 00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:42,120 Speaker 18: and that's why we have to continue to invest to 660 00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:46,400 Speaker 18: ensure that we have more access to cancer treatments, cancer medicines, diagnoses, 661 00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:48,480 Speaker 18: and all of the things that this report is highlighted. 662 00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:49,960 Speaker 2: Right, So it's not like there's a whole bunch of 663 00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:52,400 Speaker 2: new scary cancers on the horizon around the corner. 664 00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:55,319 Speaker 18: No, not at all. That's not what that report is saying. 665 00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:58,000 Speaker 18: Report is very clearly saying that as we have an 666 00:34:58,040 --> 00:35:01,080 Speaker 18: aging population in a growing popular there's going to be 667 00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:04,160 Speaker 18: more people getting More people are getting cancer, but the 668 00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:08,600 Speaker 18: actual incident rate isn't what's driving that increase. And so 669 00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:11,560 Speaker 18: as government, we're very focused on making sure expanding access 670 00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:17,359 Speaker 18: to cancer medicines, expanding access to testing, diagnoses, and all 671 00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:19,520 Speaker 18: of those treatments that are required so that people can 672 00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:20,839 Speaker 18: get that access that they need. 673 00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:26,080 Speaker 2: Half the cases are preventable smoking, eating badly, not exercising, 674 00:35:26,239 --> 00:35:28,480 Speaker 2: drinking booze, and yet we still do it. 675 00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:32,280 Speaker 18: Well, look, at the end of the day, people make choices. 676 00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:34,920 Speaker 18: But I think what this report highlights is the impact 677 00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:37,680 Speaker 18: of people's choices, and people do need to take element 678 00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:40,920 Speaker 18: of personal responsibility, and so I think it does highlight 679 00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:46,239 Speaker 18: the importance of you know, of all of those factors 680 00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:49,560 Speaker 18: and the importance and moderation. But look, ultimately people people 681 00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:51,640 Speaker 18: do make choices in their day to day lives. So 682 00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:55,359 Speaker 18: I'm not here to judge people's individual choices, but it's 683 00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:58,480 Speaker 18: also really important that we do highlight that people are 684 00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:00,759 Speaker 18: aware of that and obviously they can then decisions as 685 00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:02,880 Speaker 18: to how they live their lives in order to live 686 00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:06,640 Speaker 18: a healthier life and to produce their own risk of 687 00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:07,600 Speaker 18: contracting cancer. 688 00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:10,799 Speaker 2: Do you have it? Do you personally think about do 689 00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:12,920 Speaker 2: you worry about getting cancer? I mean, you're not a 690 00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:15,439 Speaker 2: big drinker, a smoker, or you know you're not going 691 00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:18,280 Speaker 2: through CAFC drive through every second day, are you, Minister? 692 00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:22,120 Speaker 18: No, not at all, not at all. But look, I mean, 693 00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:23,920 Speaker 18: as the Minister of Health, I've been in the role 694 00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:26,239 Speaker 18: now for you know, ten to eleven months. I must 695 00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:29,359 Speaker 18: say my own mortality is something I think a lot 696 00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:34,200 Speaker 18: more about them than I did in previous roles because 697 00:36:34,239 --> 00:36:36,440 Speaker 18: of obviously the topics. But look, cancer is a really 698 00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:39,320 Speaker 18: important issue for so many New Zealanders. Everyone knows someone 699 00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:41,920 Speaker 18: who's either been diagnosed with they've lost a loved one 700 00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:44,600 Speaker 18: or they maybe may going through that journey themselves. What's 701 00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:47,719 Speaker 18: important is the government is that we are really focused 702 00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:51,799 Speaker 18: on improving cancer outcomes. The report does highlight that we 703 00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:55,880 Speaker 18: are seeing improved outcomes here in New Zealand. Though we 704 00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:56,960 Speaker 18: have a lot more. 705 00:36:56,800 --> 00:36:59,439 Speaker 2: Work to do, we certainly do. Minister, appreciate your time tonight. 706 00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:01,799 Speaker 2: Thank you Seeing Brown. The Health Minister time is ten 707 00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:05,040 Speaker 2: after five. If you head into the US next year 708 00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:07,640 Speaker 2: for a holiday, you might have to give border officials 709 00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:11,799 Speaker 2: there your social media details first. So the Americans, the 710 00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:15,520 Speaker 2: White House wants people from visa waiver countries like ours 711 00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:19,719 Speaker 2: to disclose five years of social media history. This is 712 00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:22,680 Speaker 2: part of getting your STRA application. So it's just tourism. 713 00:37:22,719 --> 00:37:25,719 Speaker 2: You're not moving there, it's tourism. Brian Hunt is a 714 00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:31,040 Speaker 2: US immigration lawyer, formerly with Homeland Security. Brian, Hello, good day, Ryan, 715 00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:33,640 Speaker 2: Thanks for having me. Do they want in terms of 716 00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:36,359 Speaker 2: what they want from my social media account? Will they 717 00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:40,759 Speaker 2: want passwords? Or is this all just public page information? 718 00:37:43,600 --> 00:37:49,280 Speaker 19: Well, what they're asking for is disclosure of the identifiers 719 00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:55,920 Speaker 19: for social media and it doesn't go into the kind 720 00:37:55,960 --> 00:38:01,240 Speaker 19: of detail to say whether the or looking for anything 721 00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:08,640 Speaker 19: anything that has passwords. But if we look at what's 722 00:38:08,760 --> 00:38:14,160 Speaker 19: been happening with social media at other US agencies. For example, 723 00:38:14,480 --> 00:38:17,319 Speaker 19: when students are applying for a student visa to come 724 00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:22,640 Speaker 19: to the United States, they're requiring disclosure of the social 725 00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:28,440 Speaker 19: media identifiers and that they make those accounts public so 726 00:38:28,560 --> 00:38:30,480 Speaker 19: they can go look at them if they choose to. 727 00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:35,120 Speaker 2: So if my account right now, like an Instagram account 728 00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:38,840 Speaker 2: or a TikTok account, is private, they might ask that 729 00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:41,200 Speaker 2: it's made public so that they can search it. 730 00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:48,680 Speaker 19: That's what I expect, And the reason the reason they 731 00:38:48,680 --> 00:38:52,799 Speaker 19: don't know the details is just to clarify. This is 732 00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:57,000 Speaker 19: a notice of an intent to collect this information. So 733 00:38:57,239 --> 00:39:02,239 Speaker 19: under US law, federal agencies that they have forms, and 734 00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:07,200 Speaker 19: this ester program is considered a form for purposes of 735 00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:10,800 Speaker 19: this law. But anytime an agency makes changes to a form, 736 00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:15,080 Speaker 19: they have to provide a notice and an ability for 737 00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:19,760 Speaker 19: anyone who wants to send in comments. So what published 738 00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:24,799 Speaker 19: today was their intent too within in sixty days or 739 00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:27,520 Speaker 19: more to begin this collection? 740 00:39:27,960 --> 00:39:30,839 Speaker 2: Brian, What do they look at? What are they looking for? Specifically? 741 00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:33,000 Speaker 2: I love isis or something? 742 00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:40,120 Speaker 19: Presumably well, and this is another situation where we can 743 00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:43,600 Speaker 19: kind of look at the clues to predict what what 744 00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:48,200 Speaker 19: they're looking for. But what this announcement actually says is 745 00:39:48,239 --> 00:39:53,399 Speaker 19: simply that they're adding social media is a mandatory data 746 00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:58,439 Speaker 19: element on the collection. Now it does say in order 747 00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:01,680 Speaker 19: to comply with Executtive Order one for one six one. 748 00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:06,239 Speaker 19: And we know that there's two other agencies here, the 749 00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:11,279 Speaker 19: State Department and the US Citizenship and Immigration Services, who 750 00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:16,759 Speaker 19: are also implementing that same executive order and asking for 751 00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:21,840 Speaker 19: social media and they have given more details. So I think, 752 00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:25,280 Speaker 19: you know, at least I'm assuming they're going to follow 753 00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:28,480 Speaker 19: what the other agencies are doing when they collected more 754 00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:34,680 Speaker 19: social media information and it's under that same executive order, Bryant, 755 00:40:34,719 --> 00:40:37,120 Speaker 19: and with that go ahead. 756 00:40:36,920 --> 00:40:39,800 Speaker 2: No, I just want to know, from your perspective generally 757 00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:42,400 Speaker 2: to people in New Zealand who might be thinking of 758 00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:45,200 Speaker 2: going to America, is it a dumb idea to write 759 00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:46,960 Speaker 2: negative things about Donald Trump? 760 00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:51,600 Speaker 11: You know, it shouldn't be. 761 00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:55,600 Speaker 19: I really don't expect that's going to be an issue. 762 00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:59,279 Speaker 19: What they say they're looking for is with the other 763 00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:07,279 Speaker 19: agencies of they're looking for is anti Semitic. They talk 764 00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:11,560 Speaker 19: about saying anti Semitic things on social media, but in 765 00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:17,319 Speaker 19: the same language. They use the word extremists and terrorists, 766 00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:23,279 Speaker 19: so I think they're looking for pretty extreme language when 767 00:41:23,320 --> 00:41:26,920 Speaker 19: it comes to anti Semitism. And then they also said 768 00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:32,239 Speaker 19: they're vetting for anti American activity. But if we look 769 00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:35,440 Speaker 19: at what they're looking for with anti semitism again, I 770 00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:40,120 Speaker 19: think they're looking for some pretty pretty extreme kind of 771 00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:44,320 Speaker 19: statements that involve terrorism or violence. 772 00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:47,759 Speaker 2: All right, and so good to know, Brian. I really 773 00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:50,239 Speaker 2: appreciate your time tonight. Thank you. Brian Hunt. He's US 774 00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:53,799 Speaker 2: immigration lawyer formerly with Homeland Security. Times called to past five. 775 00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:57,640 Speaker 2: Now I've been talking about the cancer situation. 776 00:41:57,760 --> 00:41:58,080 Speaker 19: So it is. 777 00:41:58,080 --> 00:42:00,319 Speaker 2: The cancer pool came out just back to some brown 778 00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:02,960 Speaker 2: about it, and the number of people who will be 779 00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:05,560 Speaker 2: diagnosed with cancer in the next ten to twenty years 780 00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:09,000 Speaker 2: is going to go up, but mainly because we're getting older. Now. 781 00:42:09,200 --> 00:42:12,279 Speaker 2: Dick Van Dyke, who you will know from Mary Poppins. 782 00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:16,720 Speaker 1: Jim Jimmy Jim Jim Cherry us we bet as lucky 783 00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:20,840 Speaker 1: as lucky, come being Jim Jimminy, Jim Jimminy. 784 00:42:20,480 --> 00:42:22,759 Speaker 2: To the titty Bang Bang as well. I mean, we'll 785 00:42:23,800 --> 00:42:26,120 Speaker 2: rap sheet as long as you're umed. He's come out 786 00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:28,480 Speaker 2: and done an interview. So he's turning one hundred on 787 00:42:28,520 --> 00:42:31,360 Speaker 2: December thirteen, So in a couple of days, he turns 788 00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:34,560 Speaker 2: one hundred, and he's doing interviews and he looks great 789 00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:37,640 Speaker 2: and he's talking. He's got all his marbles, everything's good. 790 00:42:38,239 --> 00:42:40,600 Speaker 2: And his secret, he says to getting to one hundred, 791 00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:44,239 Speaker 2: is getting rid of a couple of vices booze and cigarettes. 792 00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:46,239 Speaker 2: And so I thought I would share that with you 793 00:42:46,320 --> 00:42:48,520 Speaker 2: because it ties in quite nicely with the thing we're 794 00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:51,600 Speaker 2: talking about with cancer. But then you read further down. 795 00:42:51,719 --> 00:42:55,520 Speaker 2: This is a transcript transcript of his interview, and he says, yeah, 796 00:42:55,560 --> 00:42:58,560 Speaker 2: I smoked a lot, and he smoked well into his fifties. 797 00:43:00,760 --> 00:43:02,640 Speaker 2: So what is the lesson? What is the moral of 798 00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:03,800 Speaker 2: the story? Do you stop? 799 00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:04,160 Speaker 6: You know? 800 00:43:05,160 --> 00:43:08,279 Speaker 2: Is it just when you stop? The other thing about 801 00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:11,000 Speaker 2: him is he was an alcoholic, like full blown alcoholic, 802 00:43:11,120 --> 00:43:13,920 Speaker 2: and went to rehab in nineteen seventy two. So I 803 00:43:13,920 --> 00:43:15,640 Speaker 2: guess the moral of the story is you shouldn't drink 804 00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:17,319 Speaker 2: and you shouldn't smoke, But if you do, then you 805 00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:19,879 Speaker 2: need to quit, you know, you need to quit. Sort 806 00:43:19,920 --> 00:43:23,040 Speaker 2: of relatively young in your life.

Ry and Bridge jet Star, what 829 00:44:34,280 --> 00:44:37,480 Speaker 2: have you done? Naughty? Naughty? Jet Star been pulled up 830 00:44:37,520 --> 00:44:40,040 Speaker 2: by mb for a couple of dodgy sets of scales 831 00:44:40,040 --> 00:44:43,160 Speaker 2: at Wellington Airport. These are the portable ones that you 832 00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:45,799 Speaker 2: put your bag on to see if you are under 833 00:44:45,800 --> 00:44:50,600 Speaker 2: the weight limit. Following a public complaint in September, Jetstar 834 00:44:50,800 --> 00:44:54,000 Speaker 2: were told to stop using these two particular sets of 835 00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:59,120 Speaker 2: scales because they failed to meet the legal accuracy requirements. Interesting, 836 00:44:59,239 --> 00:45:03,520 Speaker 2: Jessica Walker from Consumers will be now, hey, jess good evening, 837 00:45:03,600 --> 00:45:05,799 Speaker 2: right and this is naughty? How important is it that 838 00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:07,759 Speaker 2: it gets at scales right? 839 00:45:09,480 --> 00:45:12,720 Speaker 20: They should definitely be right. There shouldn't be any question. 840 00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:16,160 Speaker 20: So under the Contumer Guarantees Act, the business needs to 841 00:45:16,160 --> 00:45:20,040 Speaker 20: execute its services of reasonable care and skill. In this instance, 842 00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:21,880 Speaker 20: that would mean when you buy your bags, they're going 843 00:45:21,920 --> 00:45:24,000 Speaker 20: to be weighed correctly. So yeah, they shouldn't be There 844 00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:26,440 Speaker 20: shouldn't be any concern when you wear your bags that 845 00:45:26,480 --> 00:45:28,000 Speaker 20: they're going to be massively out of whack. 846 00:45:28,719 --> 00:45:31,239 Speaker 2: Are they missing? I mean? The airline says that the 847 00:45:31,360 --> 00:45:35,120 Speaker 2: scales would not have resulted in higher white readings. You know, 848 00:45:35,160 --> 00:45:36,320 Speaker 2: does it make it any better? 849 00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:40,080 Speaker 20: That's this is something that's really surprised me. So I 850 00:45:40,160 --> 00:45:44,080 Speaker 20: understand this afternoon that jet Star statement has been that 851 00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:46,319 Speaker 20: was it that the wheel alignment was slightly off, but 852 00:45:46,400 --> 00:45:48,719 Speaker 20: the measurement or the weight of the bags would have 853 00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:51,400 Speaker 20: been correct. So that makes it really tricky for a consumer. 854 00:45:51,880 --> 00:45:55,520 Speaker 20: So if Envy's investigation is questioning the accuracy or saying 855 00:45:55,520 --> 00:45:59,000 Speaker 20: that that it was inaccurate, and our jet Star is 856 00:45:59,040 --> 00:46:01,680 Speaker 20: saying that the weight would have been correct, as the 857 00:46:01,719 --> 00:46:04,440 Speaker 20: consumer potentially stuck in the middle of this, it's a 858 00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:08,040 Speaker 20: really horrible situation to be in because who do you trust? 859 00:46:08,280 --> 00:46:11,799 Speaker 2: Well? Isn't the message to consumers just if it's jit 860 00:46:11,880 --> 00:46:14,360 Speaker 2: Star then you need to be careful? And why are 861 00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:15,200 Speaker 2: your stuff at home? 862 00:46:16,560 --> 00:46:19,359 Speaker 20: I think that's good advice regardless of who you're flying with. 863 00:46:19,440 --> 00:46:21,560 Speaker 20: So I reckon having an idea of the weight of 864 00:46:21,640 --> 00:46:23,960 Speaker 20: your bag before you get to the airport and certainly 865 00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:25,719 Speaker 20: before you get to the gate where you're almost at 866 00:46:25,760 --> 00:46:28,759 Speaker 20: the point of no return. That's in everybody's best interests. 867 00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:31,520 Speaker 20: I mean, having said that, I don't know how many 868 00:46:31,560 --> 00:46:34,160 Speaker 20: people have got scales at home. I know, for example, 869 00:46:34,200 --> 00:46:36,880 Speaker 20: that I certainly don't have, But I reckon when you 870 00:46:36,920 --> 00:46:39,080 Speaker 20: get to the airport and there are so many scales 871 00:46:39,120 --> 00:46:42,080 Speaker 20: around and about just chuck it on there and see 872 00:46:42,080 --> 00:46:44,000 Speaker 20: what it weighs out before you get to the gate, 873 00:46:44,120 --> 00:46:46,120 Speaker 20: and then find yourself in that situation we're going to 874 00:46:46,200 --> 00:46:47,720 Speaker 20: have to potentially pay out money. 875 00:46:48,280 --> 00:46:49,960 Speaker 2: Is anyone going to get a refund for this? Do 876 00:46:49,960 --> 00:46:50,360 Speaker 2: you reckon? 877 00:46:52,680 --> 00:46:54,600 Speaker 20: It's all going to come down to proving it. So 878 00:46:55,480 --> 00:46:58,120 Speaker 20: the fact that the end the investigation has found what 879 00:46:58,200 --> 00:47:00,719 Speaker 20: it has and that Jetstar has been directed to stop 880 00:47:00,800 --> 00:47:03,520 Speaker 20: using these scales for the time being, I think that 881 00:47:03,640 --> 00:47:06,680 Speaker 20: standard pretty good. Stead If you were to try and 882 00:47:06,719 --> 00:47:10,800 Speaker 20: make a claim, ideally would like jet Star to pay 883 00:47:10,840 --> 00:47:13,520 Speaker 20: people back if they've been reimbursed. If they can prove 884 00:47:13,640 --> 00:47:17,360 Speaker 20: that they were overcharged, then that would be ideal. But 885 00:47:17,400 --> 00:47:19,960 Speaker 20: the fact that Jetstar is saying that people won't overcharged 886 00:47:20,080 --> 00:47:23,440 Speaker 20: absolutely makes this trickier. So for people who feel really 887 00:47:23,480 --> 00:47:25,800 Speaker 20: strongly about this, and I understand a lot of people will, 888 00:47:26,200 --> 00:47:28,719 Speaker 20: then you can always go to the dispute tribunal. But 889 00:47:28,800 --> 00:47:31,279 Speaker 20: the thing with that is currently there's a non refundable 890 00:47:31,280 --> 00:47:33,600 Speaker 20: failing fee of sixty one dollars, So do you want 891 00:47:33,640 --> 00:47:35,600 Speaker 20: to throw more money at this that's the question. 892 00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:38,040 Speaker 2: No you don't. It's the price of a jet Star fee. 893 00:47:38,080 --> 00:47:40,040 Speaker 2: To begin with, Jessica, thank you just could walk out. 894 00:47:40,080 --> 00:47:42,799 Speaker 2: Consumer in ZID time is twenty three minutes after five. 895 00:47:43,400 --> 00:47:46,359 Speaker 2: Now the earline for its part, this is what they 896 00:47:46,360 --> 00:47:49,080 Speaker 2: said about the scales they see. The two scales at 897 00:47:49,080 --> 00:47:54,080 Speaker 2: Wellington Airport had minor wheel misalignments that caused the scale 898 00:47:54,200 --> 00:47:59,719 Speaker 2: plates to sit unevenly. Very technical. This affected the stability 899 00:47:59,719 --> 00:48:03,560 Speaker 2: of the units, but not they're weighing accuracy, so in 900 00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:05,480 Speaker 2: other words, they might have looked a bit skill if 901 00:48:05,600 --> 00:48:08,319 Speaker 2: but it was weighing properly, so there was actually no 902 00:48:08,520 --> 00:48:11,600 Speaker 2: reading that was wrong, even though this one person complained 903 00:48:11,640 --> 00:48:13,440 Speaker 2: and it's gone to MB and mvy's given them a 904 00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:15,080 Speaker 2: bit of a warning. Anyway, they've thrown them out or 905 00:48:15,080 --> 00:48:17,600 Speaker 2: they're not using them anymore, these two particular scales at 906 00:48:17,600 --> 00:48:20,839 Speaker 2: Wellington Airport. But I don't know as a consumer. You know, 907 00:48:21,040 --> 00:48:23,520 Speaker 2: with Jetstar they're going to weigh your stuff, so you 908 00:48:23,600 --> 00:48:26,440 Speaker 2: should weigh it at home. And I was talking to Jessica, 909 00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:29,719 Speaker 2: since you didn't have scales at home, doesn't everyone have 910 00:48:29,760 --> 00:48:32,360 Speaker 2: a set of scales at home? No LRD is shaking 911 00:48:32,360 --> 00:48:35,040 Speaker 2: her head. And so you've got scales at home two 912 00:48:35,120 --> 00:48:36,920 Speaker 2: for years? I do, Yeah, there you go. 913 00:48:37,120 --> 00:48:38,640 Speaker 9: I don't really like the numbers that come up on 914 00:48:38,680 --> 00:48:40,120 Speaker 9: them though, I think they might be faulty too. 915 00:48:40,239 --> 00:48:41,600 Speaker 2: Hence there's nothing to you. 916 00:48:41,680 --> 00:48:43,640 Speaker 9: I mean, honestly, you get on the exactly, So why 917 00:48:43,680 --> 00:48:45,759 Speaker 9: does the scales say seventy five? I don't get it. 918 00:48:46,920 --> 00:48:48,640 Speaker 2: You get on the scales and it would just be 919 00:48:48,680 --> 00:48:52,759 Speaker 2: a question mark, is you know? Is there anything there? No, Yeah, 920 00:48:52,880 --> 00:48:54,799 Speaker 2: everyone has scales at home, So just weigh your stuff 921 00:48:54,840 --> 00:48:57,600 Speaker 2: before you go to the airport. Quite easy. Twenty five 922 00:48:57,600 --> 00:49:00,439 Speaker 2: minutes after five News Talks MB can you. 923 00:49:00,360 --> 00:49:02,760 Speaker 4: Trust to get the answers you need? 924 00:49:03,080 --> 00:49:06,600 Speaker 1: It's Ryan Bridge on hither duplessy Ellen Drive with one 925 00:49:06,680 --> 00:49:09,920 Speaker 1: New Zealand coverage like no one else News Talks. 926 00:49:10,360 --> 00:49:13,000 Speaker 2: It is five twenty seven. This whole Nicola roof debate 927 00:49:13,080 --> 00:49:16,120 Speaker 2: thing has very quickly become a little bit fascical, I think, 928 00:49:16,239 --> 00:49:18,680 Speaker 2: just a little over the top for this time of year. 929 00:49:18,719 --> 00:49:21,640 Speaker 2: It went from zero to ridiculous in twenty four hours. 930 00:49:22,280 --> 00:49:25,319 Speaker 2: It was a fight started, for goodness sakes, over some 931 00:49:25,480 --> 00:49:29,320 Speaker 2: chocolate fudge, some rather bad tasting chocolate fudge, might add, 932 00:49:29,440 --> 00:49:31,480 Speaker 2: and this debate I thought was just going to be 933 00:49:31,520 --> 00:49:33,560 Speaker 2: a bit of fun, but a Christmas fun, a bit 934 00:49:33,560 --> 00:49:36,920 Speaker 2: of a laugh, a couple of serious jabs about the deficit, 935 00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:40,400 Speaker 2: but sort of a bit of lighthearted banter between a 936 00:49:40,440 --> 00:49:44,720 Speaker 2: current and a former Minister of Finance. But interstage left 937 00:49:44,920 --> 00:49:49,920 Speaker 2: the rather dramatic debate organizing committee featuring Nikola Willis playing 938 00:49:49,920 --> 00:49:52,560 Speaker 2: herself as Nikola Willis and appearing in the debate as 939 00:49:52,719 --> 00:49:56,320 Speaker 2: Nikola Willis. First I heard that her office was telling 940 00:49:56,360 --> 00:50:00,239 Speaker 2: media it would be next year, which is outrageous because 941 00:50:00,280 --> 00:50:02,719 Speaker 2: no one's going to care about this next year. We've 942 00:50:02,719 --> 00:50:05,040 Speaker 2: got some of barbecues to get to. It's not like 943 00:50:05,120 --> 00:50:07,799 Speaker 2: you're delaying an all blacks test match, which people might 944 00:50:07,800 --> 00:50:11,560 Speaker 2: care more about. She said she wants all media broadcasting 945 00:50:11,719 --> 00:50:14,279 Speaker 2: the event invited, which is fair. It's good to be 946 00:50:14,320 --> 00:50:16,520 Speaker 2: fair to everybody, and I do like that about what 947 00:50:16,560 --> 00:50:19,600 Speaker 2: she's saying. But she is running around choreographing this thing 948 00:50:19,719 --> 00:50:25,000 Speaker 2: like mister g from Summer Heights High. Honestly, it's outrageous. Anyway, 949 00:50:25,000 --> 00:50:27,359 Speaker 2: I'll still be watching it's happening next week. I am 950 00:50:27,360 --> 00:50:30,040 Speaker 2: told it will be happening out of Wellington, happening out 951 00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:32,680 Speaker 2: of Parliament and everyone will have a chance to be 952 00:50:32,760 --> 00:50:34,759 Speaker 2: able to watch it somehow I'm not quite sure at 953 00:50:34,800 --> 00:50:37,200 Speaker 2: this point just how, but we will be there. We 954 00:50:37,280 --> 00:50:39,640 Speaker 2: will be watching. Did it need all the fuss? In 955 00:50:39,680 --> 00:50:44,920 Speaker 2: the meantime, raym Bridge. After five, I will get to 956 00:50:44,960 --> 00:50:47,719 Speaker 2: the panel the huddle, I should say very shortly. You're 957 00:50:47,760 --> 00:50:48,720 Speaker 2: on newstalks in'b. 958 00:51:03,640 --> 00:51:06,160 Speaker 1: On your smart speaker, on the iHeart app and in 959 00:51:06,200 --> 00:51:08,960 Speaker 1: your car on your drive home it's Ryan Bridge on 960 00:51:09,160 --> 00:51:12,200 Speaker 1: hither duplessy Ellen drive with one New zealand tens of 961 00:51:12,320 --> 00:51:15,279 Speaker 1: power of satellite mobile News TALKSBB. 962 00:51:15,360 --> 00:51:19,520 Speaker 2: Beginning to look a lot like Smart twenty three away 963 00:51:19,520 --> 00:51:22,240 Speaker 2: from six year on News Talks MB for your Thursday evening. 964 00:51:22,280 --> 00:51:24,400 Speaker 2: Great to have your company. We'll get to the huddle 965 00:51:24,440 --> 00:51:26,239 Speaker 2: in just the second Big Stories of the day with 966 00:51:26,600 --> 00:51:31,160 Speaker 2: Bridget Morton and Allie Jones. And after six, well after six, 967 00:51:31,160 --> 00:51:33,200 Speaker 2: we'll talk more about the FED, because the FED has 968 00:51:33,239 --> 00:51:35,360 Speaker 2: come out today and they have cut by a quarter 969 00:51:35,400 --> 00:51:37,360 Speaker 2: of a percent. They're expected to do this. This is 970 00:51:37,360 --> 00:51:40,120 Speaker 2: over in the US, lowest level now in three years. 971 00:51:40,160 --> 00:51:42,480 Speaker 2: Over there the ranges three and a half to three 972 00:51:42,520 --> 00:51:46,120 Speaker 2: point seventy five percent. Hard job that they have got 973 00:51:46,120 --> 00:51:49,000 Speaker 2: on their hands because you've got jobs week, but you've 974 00:51:49,040 --> 00:51:53,480 Speaker 2: got prices rising. So this will probably be their final 975 00:51:53,600 --> 00:51:56,360 Speaker 2: it's their third and probably final cutting of the cycle. 976 00:51:56,400 --> 00:51:58,640 Speaker 2: We'll have more on the Business Hour after six this 977 00:51:58,760 --> 00:52:03,560 Speaker 2: evening bread staying in the US just for a second. 978 00:52:03,640 --> 00:52:06,640 Speaker 2: So the Trump administration has brought its war on DEI 979 00:52:06,840 --> 00:52:11,799 Speaker 2: to a kind of unexpected battlefront FOMPS, I know, sounds weird. 980 00:52:11,880 --> 00:52:15,440 Speaker 2: US diplomats switched from using Times New Roman to Calibri 981 00:52:15,880 --> 00:52:19,640 Speaker 2: under the Biden administration, and so now Marco Rubio comes out. 982 00:52:20,000 --> 00:52:23,120 Speaker 2: He says this was a wasteful diversity initiative and it's 983 00:52:23,120 --> 00:52:26,200 Speaker 2: told diplomats to switch back to using Times New Roman. 984 00:52:27,000 --> 00:52:30,760 Speaker 2: Alistair McCready is a typeface designer at Monolith and joins 985 00:52:30,800 --> 00:52:34,239 Speaker 2: me now, good evening, Sure how you doing very well? 986 00:52:34,280 --> 00:52:36,719 Speaker 2: Thank you, Alistair, thanks for being on the show. Did 987 00:52:36,760 --> 00:52:40,120 Speaker 2: the did the Biden administration do this for a particular reason? 988 00:52:40,120 --> 00:52:42,680 Speaker 2: Apparently it was something to do with people who've got 989 00:52:42,840 --> 00:52:45,799 Speaker 2: visual disabilities? Is that is that an actual thing? 990 00:52:47,520 --> 00:52:47,680 Speaker 4: Oh? 991 00:52:47,800 --> 00:52:48,120 Speaker 2: Certainly. 992 00:52:48,239 --> 00:52:51,839 Speaker 21: Yeah. Typeface is a kind of a technology. I mean, 993 00:52:52,239 --> 00:52:53,839 Speaker 21: so it was lettering in type If you think of 994 00:52:54,560 --> 00:52:57,120 Speaker 21: any letter ever interpreted or read had to be created 995 00:52:57,160 --> 00:53:00,520 Speaker 21: in some way, shape or form. So yeaheople are always 996 00:53:00,560 --> 00:53:05,400 Speaker 21: pushing that industry further. And the font they chose to 997 00:53:05,520 --> 00:53:09,560 Speaker 21: switch to, Calibri outdates times in New Roman by about 998 00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:12,200 Speaker 21: I don't know, maybe seventy years, seventy five years or so. 999 00:53:12,200 --> 00:53:15,320 Speaker 21: So it's a lot more contemporary, a lot more clearer. 1000 00:53:15,400 --> 00:53:17,600 Speaker 21: It was built for a different context, in a different time, 1001 00:53:17,800 --> 00:53:22,920 Speaker 21: and therefore it's just it's more suited to, Yeah, a 1002 00:53:22,960 --> 00:53:28,120 Speaker 21: wider range of I guess readers of different visual impairments. 1003 00:53:28,400 --> 00:53:31,359 Speaker 2: So if you're not visually impaired, is that is it 1004 00:53:31,400 --> 00:53:33,560 Speaker 2: harder for those people to read it? Or is it 1005 00:53:33,600 --> 00:53:34,759 Speaker 2: just you wouldn't notice. 1006 00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:38,719 Speaker 21: I think that's probably a bit relative to the individual. 1007 00:53:38,760 --> 00:53:41,080 Speaker 21: I mean, there's all sorts of things that go into reading, 1008 00:53:41,120 --> 00:53:43,200 Speaker 21: not just the way you see or how clearly you 1009 00:53:43,239 --> 00:53:45,840 Speaker 21: can see. It's how you interpret letters and their shapes 1010 00:53:45,920 --> 00:53:48,840 Speaker 21: and times in New Roman was created in the thirties 1011 00:53:48,880 --> 00:53:51,480 Speaker 21: for a newspaper. It was meant to be printed, and 1012 00:53:51,560 --> 00:53:56,440 Speaker 21: over the years it's been reconstructed in various forms, and 1013 00:53:56,600 --> 00:53:58,520 Speaker 21: now it's what we know is digital. And now you've 1014 00:53:58,560 --> 00:54:02,439 Speaker 21: got Calibri, which was created by Microsoft for Windows Vista. 1015 00:54:02,480 --> 00:54:04,960 Speaker 21: It must have been early two thousands as part of 1016 00:54:05,000 --> 00:54:06,640 Speaker 21: a group of typefaces they made and it kind of 1017 00:54:06,640 --> 00:54:10,319 Speaker 21: became the default, actually replaced Times New Roman and Microsoft Word. 1018 00:54:10,600 --> 00:54:13,600 Speaker 21: So you know for that big time gap that was 1019 00:54:13,640 --> 00:54:17,919 Speaker 21: back in two thousand and say, two thousand and six. Yeah, 1020 00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:20,200 Speaker 21: and now it's nowadays what we know is today. But 1021 00:54:20,239 --> 00:54:23,360 Speaker 21: the reason they probably chose either or of the typefaces 1022 00:54:23,440 --> 00:54:27,840 Speaker 21: just because there are most OS platforms now on computers worldwide. 1023 00:54:27,880 --> 00:54:30,040 Speaker 21: You don't have to buy them and install them yourselves, 1024 00:54:30,120 --> 00:54:32,680 Speaker 21: so they're very accessible elistair in. 1025 00:54:32,719 --> 00:54:35,080 Speaker 2: Terms of I mean, then the thirties Times New Roman 1026 00:54:35,160 --> 00:54:38,680 Speaker 2: came about in terms of print, was that that was 1027 00:54:38,719 --> 00:54:41,200 Speaker 2: everyone using Times New Roman or were there other ones 1028 00:54:41,239 --> 00:54:41,720 Speaker 2: out there? 1029 00:54:43,440 --> 00:54:44,520 Speaker 11: There's there's a lot out there. 1030 00:54:44,560 --> 00:54:48,240 Speaker 21: There was an enormous industry, you know, huge factories casting 1031 00:54:48,280 --> 00:54:51,440 Speaker 21: things physically, you know, they're called foundriies because they're literally 1032 00:54:51,440 --> 00:54:55,600 Speaker 21: casted hot metal or carved wood, and it was it 1033 00:54:55,600 --> 00:54:57,480 Speaker 21: was all printing. We didn't have screens, we didn't have 1034 00:54:57,520 --> 00:55:01,719 Speaker 21: digital So Times New Roman called Times because it was 1035 00:55:01,719 --> 00:55:06,200 Speaker 21: created for the Times newspaper in London specifically, and then 1036 00:55:06,320 --> 00:55:08,440 Speaker 21: over the years it sort of evolved into what we 1037 00:55:08,480 --> 00:55:11,320 Speaker 21: know of it now. So you know, you can imagine 1038 00:55:11,320 --> 00:55:14,800 Speaker 21: they're two different fonts in regards to you know, times 1039 00:55:14,920 --> 00:55:18,640 Speaker 21: New Roman has what we have serif versions. So serifs 1040 00:55:18,640 --> 00:55:20,520 Speaker 21: are basically the little feet at the bottom of the letters, 1041 00:55:21,200 --> 00:55:23,400 Speaker 21: and then you've got kaliviri, which is a Sands serif, 1042 00:55:23,440 --> 00:55:27,040 Speaker 21: which just basically means without and they're a lot more contemporary, considered, cleaner, 1043 00:55:27,760 --> 00:55:28,440 Speaker 21: more legible. 1044 00:55:28,680 --> 00:55:31,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, what's your favorite alistair? What do you use? 1045 00:55:33,040 --> 00:55:35,759 Speaker 21: I draw my own, so I don't really Uh, you 1046 00:55:36,560 --> 00:55:37,399 Speaker 21: pick your kids, you know. 1047 00:55:38,680 --> 00:55:41,400 Speaker 2: If you write an email, you use something that you've designed, 1048 00:55:41,400 --> 00:55:42,239 Speaker 2: that you've come up with. 1049 00:55:43,440 --> 00:55:46,799 Speaker 21: Not specifically. So the fonts are essentially software. So you 1050 00:55:46,840 --> 00:55:48,600 Speaker 21: have the typeface, which is a design, and then a 1051 00:55:48,640 --> 00:55:51,719 Speaker 21: font is the software that drives that design. So the 1052 00:55:51,719 --> 00:55:53,359 Speaker 21: fonts are what we have on our computers. And if 1053 00:55:53,400 --> 00:55:56,040 Speaker 21: a computer doesn't have a font installed, then it won't 1054 00:55:56,040 --> 00:55:58,480 Speaker 21: recognize it unless it's on say a. 1055 00:55:58,480 --> 00:55:59,280 Speaker 11: Website or something. 1056 00:56:00,040 --> 00:56:01,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, first, notting elis. 1057 00:56:01,239 --> 00:56:02,799 Speaker 21: I can't send it in a font I want and 1058 00:56:02,880 --> 00:56:04,080 Speaker 21: expect him to see it as well. 1059 00:56:04,400 --> 00:56:06,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a bit of it. Ah, I'm with you. 1060 00:56:06,880 --> 00:56:09,319 Speaker 2: I'm with you, very very okay, Alis, appreciate your time. 1061 00:56:09,320 --> 00:56:11,879 Speaker 2: Alison mccredia, who's a typeface designer at Monolith.

Let's start with 1068 00:56:29,400 --> 00:56:33,520 Speaker 2: a taxpayers Union fudge stunt, the false flag event if 1069 00:56:33,520 --> 00:56:35,280 Speaker 2: that's what if you want to listen to the unions, 1070 00:56:35,560 --> 00:56:37,520 Speaker 2: what do we think? Bridget has all gotten a bit 1071 00:56:37,560 --> 00:56:40,240 Speaker 2: weird in my mind, but it's happening next week apparently. 1072 00:56:41,480 --> 00:56:44,799 Speaker 16: Yeah, I think it's a classic pre Christmas you know, 1073 00:56:44,840 --> 00:56:47,640 Speaker 16: a bit of noise to go around. Of course, I'm 1074 00:56:47,680 --> 00:56:49,200 Speaker 16: sort of in the middle of here, stuck in the 1075 00:56:49,239 --> 00:56:52,240 Speaker 16: fudge Taxpas Union as a client of mine, whereas Nichola 1076 00:56:52,239 --> 00:56:55,799 Speaker 16: Willis have been campaigned chair for the last couple of elections, 1077 00:56:56,120 --> 00:56:58,000 Speaker 16: so you know, probably could have lined down the middle. 1078 00:56:58,040 --> 00:57:01,120 Speaker 16: But I do think this budge stunt actually benefits them both, 1079 00:57:01,520 --> 00:57:03,560 Speaker 16: you know, for the tax those Union, that's really talking 1080 00:57:03,600 --> 00:57:05,719 Speaker 16: to their base about holding the government to account. And 1081 00:57:05,760 --> 00:57:08,680 Speaker 16: what's been spend, debt levels and all of that sort 1082 00:57:08,719 --> 00:57:10,920 Speaker 16: of thing, because they do want lower taxes, and for 1083 00:57:11,040 --> 00:57:13,000 Speaker 16: Nicola Willis, it gives her a chance to sort of 1084 00:57:13,040 --> 00:57:16,240 Speaker 16: differentiate herself from that mother ll budget which is not 1085 00:57:16,280 --> 00:57:18,840 Speaker 16: going to be as tough as national wars in the nineties, 1086 00:57:19,000 --> 00:57:20,840 Speaker 16: and allows her to sort of show them modern faith 1087 00:57:20,920 --> 00:57:21,760 Speaker 16: of the national partting. 1088 00:57:21,920 --> 00:57:24,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think yesterday I said it was a win win, 1089 00:57:24,920 --> 00:57:27,640 Speaker 2: like she even if she loses, she wins because she 1090 00:57:27,760 --> 00:57:30,560 Speaker 2: looks well, not as radical as with Richardson. 1091 00:57:30,200 --> 00:57:33,680 Speaker 22: Right, Ellie, Yeah, and also well, the only thing is 1092 00:57:33,760 --> 00:57:35,240 Speaker 22: I want to start off by saying I. 1093 00:57:35,120 --> 00:57:36,120 Speaker 23: Don't have a conflict. 1094 00:57:36,200 --> 00:57:39,760 Speaker 22: I am feeling quite nauseous from having eaten several pieces 1095 00:57:39,760 --> 00:57:43,040 Speaker 22: of Nicholas fudge, which arrived today from Jordan Williams.

I think it's 1101 00:57:53,560 --> 00:57:58,480 Speaker 22: absolutely outstanding. It's really witty, funny, clever. I mean, on 1102 00:57:58,520 --> 00:58:01,200 Speaker 22: the lid of the box that says the aroma will 1103 00:58:01,280 --> 00:58:04,480 Speaker 22: hit you first, a warm lend of heroic assumptions and 1104 00:58:04,560 --> 00:58:08,960 Speaker 22: overconfidence whiped together with more debt and denial than ever before. 1105 00:58:09,280 --> 00:58:11,440 Speaker 22: And I mean the whole thing.

This means that they can actually have a 1114 00:58:33,120 --> 00:58:36,000 Speaker 22: conversation and when one of them calls BS, the other 1115 00:58:36,080 --> 00:58:38,680 Speaker 22: one can say why and this is how?

I think it's not 1160 01:00:30,760 --> 01:00:33,400 Speaker 16: just the fact of the privacy element and the concern 1161 01:00:33,440 --> 01:00:35,800 Speaker 16: that you may have inevnently said something in the last 1162 01:00:35,800 --> 01:00:37,520 Speaker 16: five years that they're going to take an issue with. 1163 01:00:38,040 --> 01:00:40,320 Speaker 16: There's also just the mechanics of it. Most of us 1164 01:00:40,320 --> 01:00:42,680 Speaker 16: when we travel want to have it as easy as possible. 1165 01:00:43,080 --> 01:00:44,480 Speaker 16: If you think that you're going to be caught up 1166 01:00:44,480 --> 01:00:46,480 Speaker 16: because somebody's going to be scrolling all the ways back, 1167 01:00:46,600 --> 01:00:49,440 Speaker 16: you know, through your Instagram, was sitting in LA, it's 1168 01:00:49,440 --> 01:00:52,080 Speaker 16: probably not going to go through the US, or you're 1169 01:00:52,080 --> 01:00:53,600 Speaker 16: going to choose to go somewhere else. If you've got 1170 01:00:53,600 --> 01:00:55,320 Speaker 16: to live in an amount of time for holiday, it 1171 01:00:55,480 --> 01:00:59,360 Speaker 16: just seems completely ridiculous. And you look at the justification 1172 01:00:59,560 --> 01:01:02,560 Speaker 16: for it is you know that there's been a foreign 1173 01:01:02,640 --> 01:01:05,640 Speaker 16: person who you know, has called time in the USC 1174 01:01:05,840 --> 01:01:08,080 Speaker 16: for with suddenly our social media accounts need to be 1175 01:01:08,160 --> 01:01:10,680 Speaker 16: open to access. I just don't think that they're interested 1176 01:01:10,720 --> 01:01:13,120 Speaker 16: in my tramping photo. That's complete other range. 1177 01:01:13,280 --> 01:01:15,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree with you, but totally puts me off 1178 01:01:15,400 --> 01:01:19,160 Speaker 2: the idea of even transitting through the Alliah. 1179 01:01:19,160 --> 01:01:21,920 Speaker 22: Well, if we wanted another reason, or even needed another 1180 01:01:21,960 --> 01:01:23,560 Speaker 22: reason not to go to the US, this is it. 1181 01:01:23,680 --> 01:01:26,840 Speaker 22: Surely I totally agree with what you're saying. I mean, 1182 01:01:27,200 --> 01:01:30,720 Speaker 22: just the thought of it. It feels quite violating really, 1183 01:01:30,800 --> 01:01:32,600 Speaker 22: And you know, I know people don't want to see 1184 01:01:32,600 --> 01:01:36,600 Speaker 22: me singing karaoke at last year's Christmas party, but you know, 1185 01:01:36,600 --> 01:01:39,080 Speaker 22: there's a lot of stuff in there about friends that 1186 01:01:39,120 --> 01:01:42,160 Speaker 22: we've lost, and just a lot of really personal stuff. 1187 01:01:42,920 --> 01:01:45,160 Speaker 22: I just think it's absolutely outrageous. Oh, I wouldn't go 1188 01:01:45,240 --> 01:01:46,960 Speaker 22: to the States. Don't need to go to the States, 1189 01:01:47,000 --> 01:01:48,920 Speaker 22: so certainly wouldn't. This is another reason. 1190 01:01:49,080 --> 01:01:52,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, I tend to agree with you, right this cancer 1191 01:01:52,480 --> 01:01:55,040 Speaker 2: diagnosis story. So over the next twenty years, we will 1192 01:01:55,040 --> 01:01:59,040 Speaker 2: see a fifty percent increase in cancer diagnoses, and half 1193 01:01:59,160 --> 01:02:04,520 Speaker 2: will be because of preventable, preventable cancers. I we're drinking 1194 01:02:04,560 --> 01:02:08,600 Speaker 2: we're smoking, we're eating the wrong foods, bridget Do we 1195 01:02:09,120 --> 01:02:11,680 Speaker 2: I mean we know this, Like people say, do we 1196 01:02:11,680 --> 01:02:14,560 Speaker 2: need an education campaign? Do we need an education campaign? 1197 01:02:14,640 --> 01:02:16,200 Speaker 2: Or do we already know what's bad for us? And 1198 01:02:16,240 --> 01:02:19,439 Speaker 2: we do it anyway because that's just part of living well. 1199 01:02:19,480 --> 01:02:21,960 Speaker 16: I think there's an element of sort of self responsibility. 1200 01:02:22,280 --> 01:02:24,120 Speaker 16: But if you actually look at some of those education 1201 01:02:24,200 --> 01:02:27,560 Speaker 16: campaigns we've had previously, they have led to change. You know, 1202 01:02:27,680 --> 01:02:31,400 Speaker 16: smoking rates are very very low compared to what they 1203 01:02:31,520 --> 01:02:33,760 Speaker 16: used to be. Also, look at the beach this summer. 1204 01:02:34,080 --> 01:02:36,360 Speaker 16: You know, every kid will be wearing a rash shirt. 1205 01:02:36,400 --> 01:02:38,280 Speaker 16: Will we have a hat on? Have suns going on? 1206 01:02:38,680 --> 01:02:41,600 Speaker 16: We've completely changed our attitude to sort of sun and 1207 01:02:41,640 --> 01:02:43,960 Speaker 16: I think we are changing our attitudes and learning more 1208 01:02:44,000 --> 01:02:46,080 Speaker 16: and more about you know, the difference is sometimes of 1209 01:02:46,160 --> 01:02:50,080 Speaker 16: processed meats or you know, excess alcohol. I think those 1210 01:02:50,120 --> 01:02:52,360 Speaker 16: things are changing, but they do require a bit of 1211 01:02:52,360 --> 01:02:55,320 Speaker 16: cultural change, and so I don't think it's necessarily fair 1212 01:02:55,360 --> 01:02:57,760 Speaker 16: to say that, you know, we all know this, we 1213 01:02:57,800 --> 01:03:00,240 Speaker 16: do need sometimes those reminders to kind of go, is 1214 01:03:00,280 --> 01:03:02,240 Speaker 16: this actually the right thing for you to do in 1215 01:03:02,280 --> 01:03:03,480 Speaker 16: the long term, Ellie. 1216 01:03:04,120 --> 01:03:06,080 Speaker 22: I think it's a combination of things. I think, yes, 1217 01:03:06,120 --> 01:03:09,320 Speaker 22: it's certainly self responsibility, but I think, as some of 1218 01:03:09,360 --> 01:03:12,200 Speaker 22: the media coverage around this has said, prevention is the 1219 01:03:12,280 --> 01:03:15,000 Speaker 22: key here, and in fact the story I was reading 1220 01:03:15,040 --> 01:03:19,840 Speaker 22: says improved prevention efforts could see between eighty and fourteen 1221 01:03:19,880 --> 01:03:22,840 Speaker 22: thousand fure cancer diagnoses each year. And I think the 1222 01:03:22,880 --> 01:03:25,800 Speaker 22: other thing with prevention to remember is that prevention is 1223 01:03:25,840 --> 01:03:27,400 Speaker 22: all about catching something. 1224 01:03:27,200 --> 01:03:28,160 Speaker 9: Early as well. 1225 01:03:28,480 --> 01:03:30,200 Speaker 22: You know, we've all heard the saying and an ounce 1226 01:03:30,240 --> 01:03:32,840 Speaker 22: of prevention is worse. I think it's a pound of cure, 1227 01:03:33,400 --> 01:03:36,640 Speaker 22: and we really need to shore up our frontline primary 1228 01:03:37,400 --> 01:03:42,040 Speaker 22: health services. That's where this prevention and nipping these things 1229 01:03:42,120 --> 01:03:44,480 Speaker 22: in the bud happens. So I agree that we've got 1230 01:03:44,520 --> 01:03:46,680 Speaker 22: to be more responsible, but it's actually more than that. 1231 01:03:47,840 --> 01:03:50,720 Speaker 2: I appreciate you guys tonight. Thank you Bridget Morton, lawyer 1232 01:03:50,720 --> 01:03:53,680 Speaker 2: at Frank's Ogilvy, and Ellie Jones from red PR on 1233 01:03:53,680 --> 01:03:56,040 Speaker 2: the huddle. It is eight minutes away from six. We've 1234 01:03:56,040 --> 01:03:58,000 Speaker 2: had loads of texts come in thank you, but nice 1235 01:03:58,040 --> 01:03:59,320 Speaker 2: to have you both on the show. We had loads 1236 01:03:59,320 --> 01:04:01,760 Speaker 2: of texts coming on the Jet Star situation and the 1237 01:04:01,800 --> 01:04:05,840 Speaker 2: scales and how much does your bag weigh? Ryan it's 1238 01:04:05,880 --> 01:04:08,080 Speaker 2: not about weighing. This is from James. I thought it 1239 01:04:08,120 --> 01:04:10,640 Speaker 2: was an interesting one. Not about weighing at home. This 1240 01:04:10,720 --> 01:04:12,240 Speaker 2: is the way you bags at home before you go 1241 01:04:12,280 --> 01:04:14,880 Speaker 2: to the airport, or even at the airport. It's the 1242 01:04:15,040 --> 01:04:18,680 Speaker 2: gate scales that are the issue. Even if every other 1243 01:04:18,960 --> 01:04:22,160 Speaker 2: set up until now says it's underweight. If those say 1244 01:04:22,200 --> 01:04:25,120 Speaker 2: it's over, you either pay a bunch of money or 1245 01:04:25,120 --> 01:04:28,000 Speaker 2: you don't fly. I've been caught an arguments far too 1246 01:04:28,000 --> 01:04:29,920 Speaker 2: often to ever trust them again. Back to in New 1247 01:04:30,040 --> 01:04:34,120 Speaker 2: Zealand for me, says James. James. The thing is in 1248 01:04:34,160 --> 01:04:37,880 Speaker 2: New Zealand's flights are so much more expensive than Jet Stars. 1249 01:04:38,280 --> 01:04:40,400 Speaker 2: You'll probably better to get a jet Star flight and 1250 01:04:40,440 --> 01:04:43,120 Speaker 2: then just add extra baggage, you know, if you're on 1251 01:04:43,160 --> 01:04:45,840 Speaker 2: the if you're on the CUSP add extra baggage. Is 1252 01:04:45,880 --> 01:04:48,720 Speaker 2: it that hard? I don't know. I don't understand. Like 1253 01:04:48,920 --> 01:04:51,320 Speaker 2: they tell you very clearly that they are very strict 1254 01:04:51,320 --> 01:04:53,280 Speaker 2: on this, and it's like timings. You know, you've got 1255 01:04:53,320 --> 01:04:56,200 Speaker 2: to get there bang on time or early if it's 1256 01:04:56,240 --> 01:04:58,120 Speaker 2: a Jet Star flight, because they've just closed the door 1257 01:04:58,160 --> 01:04:59,880 Speaker 2: in your face. They don't really care. It's not that 1258 01:05:00,080 --> 01:05:04,120 Speaker 2: kind of airline so I don't know. And also, why 1259 01:05:04,160 --> 01:05:06,720 Speaker 2: are we so consumed with weighing bags when we don't 1260 01:05:06,720 --> 01:05:13,160 Speaker 2: weigh people. I mean the difference in size between you know, 1261 01:05:13,240 --> 01:05:14,640 Speaker 2: you get on a plane, you get on the bus, 1262 01:05:14,680 --> 01:05:17,040 Speaker 2: you walk around the street. You can see it. Some 1263 01:05:17,080 --> 01:05:19,840 Speaker 2: people are huge, some people aren't. And how do they 1264 01:05:19,920 --> 01:05:21,760 Speaker 2: know how big? You know? They've got no idea how 1265 01:05:21,800 --> 01:05:23,520 Speaker 2: big you are when you turn up, and yet they 1266 01:05:23,600 --> 01:05:26,000 Speaker 2: want to charge you sixty dollars if you're half a 1267 01:05:26,080 --> 01:05:29,200 Speaker 2: kilo over on your bag. Rubbish. 1268 01:05:29,240 --> 01:05:32,520 Speaker 1: It's the Heather Duper c Allen Drive Full Show podcast 1269 01:05:32,640 --> 01:05:35,680 Speaker 1: on iHeartRadio powered by News Talk ZBI. 1270 01:05:37,600 --> 01:05:39,920 Speaker 2: Four to six News talks It. Mike says Ryan, I 1271 01:05:39,960 --> 01:05:43,360 Speaker 2: have an idea, what about a total weight allowance if 1272 01:05:43,360 --> 01:05:46,000 Speaker 2: you're getting on a plane ninety kilos for you and 1273 01:05:46,040 --> 01:05:51,240 Speaker 2: your bag. Well, we're getting a bit ridiculous now, aren't we. 1274 01:05:51,920 --> 01:05:55,200 Speaker 2: Another person here says the Taxpayers Union never gets a 1275 01:05:55,240 --> 01:05:58,600 Speaker 2: donation from me. Again, I'm not wasting money on fudge, 1276 01:05:58,920 --> 01:06:02,080 Speaker 2: especially not for journal Chris. It's a good point. If 1277 01:06:02,080 --> 01:06:04,520 Speaker 2: you are, I mean to be fair, it's meant to 1278 01:06:04,520 --> 01:06:07,480 Speaker 2: be a stunt. It's a publicity stunt, and to get publicity, 1279 01:06:07,560 --> 01:06:09,760 Speaker 2: you need to give the journalist something to talk about. 1280 01:06:09,760 --> 01:06:12,320 Speaker 2: They've given the journal somebody to talk about. It's work, 1281 01:06:12,440 --> 01:06:15,120 Speaker 2: hasn't it. Is that not a measure of success. You 1282 01:06:15,120 --> 01:06:18,520 Speaker 2: could argue that they deserve more of your money. Chris, anyway, 1283 01:06:18,600 --> 01:06:19,200 Speaker 2: you're on newspaper. 1284 01:06:19,240 --> 01:06:20,680 Speaker 9: Can I assure you that none of the fudge that 1285 01:06:20,680 --> 01:06:22,680 Speaker 9: were sent to us went to waste? This is why 1286 01:06:22,680 --> 01:06:24,520 Speaker 9: I'm having so many issues with the scales myself at 1287 01:06:24,520 --> 01:06:25,640 Speaker 9: the leaven Ah. 1288 01:06:26,680 --> 01:06:29,800 Speaker 2: There's a problem with you or with your gut. I 1289 01:06:29,800 --> 01:06:32,360 Speaker 2: haven't eaten it yet. Is it good? I mean it 1290 01:06:32,400 --> 01:06:38,120 Speaker 2: was fine, ungrateful, ungrateful for the state. Anyway. We'll talk 1291 01:06:38,160 --> 01:06:42,120 Speaker 2: to Jamie McCAT host of the Country on the Fonterra Payout. 1292 01:06:41,800 --> 01:07:03,880 Speaker 24: Next where Business com meets Insight the Business Hour with 1293 01:07:04,200 --> 01:07:07,120 Speaker 24: Ryan Breach and Mass Motor Vehicle Insurance. 1294 01:07:07,360 --> 01:07:10,160 Speaker 4: Your futures in good hands, News. 1295 01:07:09,920 --> 01:07:10,480 Speaker 2: Talks at be. 1296 01:07:12,440 --> 01:07:12,880 Speaker 12: Good evening. 1297 01:07:12,880 --> 01:07:14,640 Speaker 2: It is seven after six. Great to have your company. 1298 01:07:14,680 --> 01:07:16,160 Speaker 2: We'll get to end of Brady out of the UK 1299 01:07:16,280 --> 01:07:19,240 Speaker 2: before seven o'clock. We'll get to Jamie mckaye, host of 1300 01:07:19,280 --> 01:07:21,760 Speaker 2: the Country on Fonterra. They've had their annual meeting in 1301 01:07:21,840 --> 01:07:24,040 Speaker 2: christ Church today. A bit of an outlook on the 1302 01:07:24,120 --> 01:07:27,400 Speaker 2: milk supply both from here and also around the world. 1303 01:07:27,440 --> 01:07:29,880 Speaker 2: And what does it mean for prices, What does it 1304 01:07:29,920 --> 01:07:33,920 Speaker 2: mean importantly for that midpoint of the price range. First though, 1305 01:07:34,040 --> 01:07:37,440 Speaker 2: this is an interesting one. This is about fractional leadership. 1306 01:07:37,440 --> 01:07:39,960 Speaker 2: Have you heard of this? Chances are you probably haven't. 1307 01:07:40,040 --> 01:07:42,280 Speaker 2: I didn't hear about this until for the first time 1308 01:07:42,360 --> 01:07:45,800 Speaker 2: until yesterday. But a key we company that specializes in 1309 01:07:45,840 --> 01:07:49,320 Speaker 2: this new way of company leadership has just landed a 1310 01:07:49,400 --> 01:07:52,600 Speaker 2: pretty big contract with the Singapore government. The company is 1311 01:07:52,640 --> 01:07:57,160 Speaker 2: called Fractional Directory. The CEO is Michelle Aubon and she 1312 01:07:57,360 --> 01:08:00,919 Speaker 2: is with me now, good evening, Yes, hell, oh great 1313 01:08:00,960 --> 01:08:02,760 Speaker 2: to have you on the show. Michelle. First of all, 1314 01:08:02,760 --> 01:08:05,680 Speaker 2: you need to explain us, explain to us what fractional 1315 01:08:05,760 --> 01:08:06,480 Speaker 2: leadership is. 1316 01:08:07,680 --> 01:08:11,400 Speaker 25: Absolutely, it's really something that before about six months ago, 1317 01:08:11,440 --> 01:08:14,160 Speaker 25: most people were asking that constantly, and now we're starting 1318 01:08:14,160 --> 01:08:16,400 Speaker 25: to hear it more and more. And what it really 1319 01:08:16,520 --> 01:08:18,919 Speaker 25: is is it's just using a full time. 1320 01:08:18,800 --> 01:08:21,600 Speaker 16: Leader at a fraction of their capacity. 1321 01:08:21,720 --> 01:08:24,840 Speaker 25: So maybe that's two days a month, four days a week. 1322 01:08:25,200 --> 01:08:28,400 Speaker 25: It's just more or less part time senior leadership. 1323 01:08:30,080 --> 01:08:33,000 Speaker 2: Who are these people? Why are they part time? Why 1324 01:08:33,040 --> 01:08:35,280 Speaker 2: aren't they full time jobs. And are we talking like 1325 01:08:35,439 --> 01:08:37,760 Speaker 2: CEOs and CFOs stuff like that. 1326 01:08:38,600 --> 01:08:40,640 Speaker 25: Yeah, so the word part time gets a bit of 1327 01:08:40,680 --> 01:08:43,720 Speaker 25: a bad rap, doesn't it. But the truth is is 1328 01:08:43,760 --> 01:08:46,640 Speaker 25: that actually this is a completely different model. So what 1329 01:08:46,800 --> 01:08:50,120 Speaker 25: happens is that we actually we've been watching this in 1330 01:08:50,160 --> 01:08:52,920 Speaker 25: our directory over the last two years, and two years 1331 01:08:52,920 --> 01:08:56,040 Speaker 25: ago there was forty three publicly operating people and that 1332 01:08:56,120 --> 01:08:59,519 Speaker 25: has fourteen x in two years. And these are these 1333 01:08:59,560 --> 01:09:02,439 Speaker 25: senior most kind of top executives in the company or 1334 01:09:02,479 --> 01:09:05,599 Speaker 25: excuse me, the country who are untethering from the five 1335 01:09:05,680 --> 01:09:08,760 Speaker 25: day work week and going back into companies you know 1336 01:09:08,840 --> 01:09:11,840 Speaker 25: as one or a couple days a week and as 1337 01:09:11,960 --> 01:09:16,680 Speaker 25: kind of senior leaders working just in their expertise is by. 1338 01:09:16,720 --> 01:09:19,600 Speaker 2: Not just consultants business consultants. 1339 01:09:19,800 --> 01:09:24,560 Speaker 25: Yeah, And the common question because everyone's familiar with consulting, 1340 01:09:24,720 --> 01:09:28,800 Speaker 25: but the difference between consulting and fractional is that a 1341 01:09:28,880 --> 01:09:33,080 Speaker 25: fractional leader is fully embedded. So I'll give you an example. 1342 01:09:33,479 --> 01:09:37,759 Speaker 25: A company who's hired a fractional chief marketing officer. Everyone 1343 01:09:37,880 --> 01:09:41,360 Speaker 25: understands the kind of outcomes you'd want, but a fractional 1344 01:09:41,439 --> 01:09:44,880 Speaker 25: chief marketing officer pretty much does the same thing. It's 1345 01:09:44,960 --> 01:09:47,719 Speaker 25: just almost like they're not in the company two days 1346 01:09:47,720 --> 01:09:51,720 Speaker 25: a week, but there were really specific outcome that they 1347 01:09:51,800 --> 01:09:54,400 Speaker 25: only need that kind of reduced time to hit. So 1348 01:09:54,840 --> 01:09:58,200 Speaker 25: we're seeing this be really really effective, and it's not 1349 01:09:58,360 --> 01:10:01,560 Speaker 25: just giving them advice and you know, throwing a PowerPoint 1350 01:10:01,600 --> 01:10:04,880 Speaker 25: over the wall. It's actually being in with the leadership 1351 01:10:04,920 --> 01:10:08,080 Speaker 25: team alongside them, and it's really amazing kind of the 1352 01:10:08,160 --> 01:10:10,479 Speaker 25: effect that we're starting to see this have in New 1353 01:10:10,520 --> 01:10:11,880 Speaker 25: Zealand and around the world. 1354 01:10:12,200 --> 01:10:15,400 Speaker 2: So what's the deal, Michelle, You've got with the Singapore government, 1355 01:10:15,439 --> 01:10:17,920 Speaker 2: what are you actually doing for them? 1356 01:10:18,280 --> 01:10:21,400 Speaker 25: Yeah, so this sup poor government started to see a 1357 01:10:21,439 --> 01:10:23,840 Speaker 25: bit of traction in this model as quite a lot 1358 01:10:23,920 --> 01:10:28,280 Speaker 25: of senior leaders there are either approaching this as a 1359 01:10:28,320 --> 01:10:31,680 Speaker 25: result of mass layoffs, people are going, I want to 1360 01:10:31,720 --> 01:10:33,720 Speaker 25: work in a different model, and we're seeing some of 1361 01:10:33,760 --> 01:10:36,320 Speaker 25: the top talent you know, no longer go back into 1362 01:10:36,400 --> 01:10:39,639 Speaker 25: full time jobs but actually just emerge as fractional leaders. 1363 01:10:39,920 --> 01:10:41,840 Speaker 25: And then the other thing that we're seeing, which is 1364 01:10:42,000 --> 01:10:45,479 Speaker 25: our deal with the government, is we're seeing that when 1365 01:10:45,520 --> 01:10:49,080 Speaker 25: four Singaporeans are actually going to be a retirement age 1366 01:10:49,439 --> 01:10:52,160 Speaker 25: in ten years, and there's these senior leaders who have 1367 01:10:52,320 --> 01:10:55,439 Speaker 25: these big playbooks that have kind of proven out their 1368 01:10:55,479 --> 01:10:58,720 Speaker 25: expertise over their career, and they're going, how can I 1369 01:10:58,880 --> 01:11:02,880 Speaker 25: still you know, be be relevant and be impactful in 1370 01:11:02,960 --> 01:11:07,120 Speaker 25: a company without having to retire. And so the government 1371 01:11:07,160 --> 01:11:10,479 Speaker 25: is basically piloting the model and we're helping them to 1372 01:11:10,560 --> 01:11:14,880 Speaker 25: take fifteen companies through a full placement to actually show 1373 01:11:14,920 --> 01:11:18,639 Speaker 25: the impact that fractional can make instead of have full 1374 01:11:18,720 --> 01:11:20,400 Speaker 25: timely embedded in the company. 1375 01:11:20,479 --> 01:11:23,040 Speaker 2: Michelle, you're the CEO of the Fractional Directory. Are you 1376 01:11:23,120 --> 01:11:25,679 Speaker 2: a fractional CEO? Are you like a full time CEO? 1377 01:11:25,800 --> 01:11:28,160 Speaker 2: And is there not a contradiction if you are? 1378 01:11:29,760 --> 01:11:32,679 Speaker 25: Yeah, you know, it's actually it's a really relevant question 1379 01:11:32,800 --> 01:11:36,439 Speaker 25: because I started as the fractional CEO of our startup 1380 01:11:36,880 --> 01:11:40,120 Speaker 25: and then as we've moved into you know, out of 1381 01:11:40,120 --> 01:11:43,160 Speaker 25: New Zealand and into other countries, we go one full time. 1382 01:11:43,200 --> 01:11:46,000 Speaker 25: But it's true, you actually you can work in either. 1383 01:11:47,280 --> 01:11:50,840 Speaker 2: No fair enough, I didn't wasn't being serious, Michelle. Thank you. 1384 01:11:51,160 --> 01:11:54,160 Speaker 2: Michelle Auborne with our CEO of the Fractional Directory. It's 1385 01:11:54,160 --> 01:11:54,799 Speaker 2: eleven minutes. 1386 01:11:54,640 --> 01:11:56,479 Speaker 4: Lapter six Brian Bridge. 1387 01:11:56,800 --> 01:11:59,160 Speaker 2: Interesting, this is news out of out of Space and 1388 01:11:59,320 --> 01:12:02,439 Speaker 2: NASA has lost contact with a spacecraft that has orbited 1389 01:12:02,439 --> 01:12:04,679 Speaker 2: Mars from more than a decade. It's called the Maven, 1390 01:12:05,200 --> 01:12:07,479 Speaker 2: and I've always wondered how they do the communications. Well, 1391 01:12:07,479 --> 01:12:09,760 Speaker 2: the Maven apparently quite an important part of this. So 1392 01:12:09,840 --> 01:12:14,840 Speaker 2: if you are communicating between Earth and a something that's 1393 01:12:14,960 --> 01:12:18,559 Speaker 2: orbiting or going around the Red planet, then you would 1394 01:12:18,640 --> 01:12:21,920 Speaker 2: usually do that communication through Maven. And so Maven's just 1395 01:12:22,000 --> 01:12:26,360 Speaker 2: chugging along through space doing her thing, working fine before 1396 01:12:26,400 --> 01:12:30,240 Speaker 2: it went behind Mars. Then it pops out the other 1397 01:12:30,320 --> 01:12:33,360 Speaker 2: side radio silence, and they're not really sure why. So 1398 01:12:33,400 --> 01:12:36,639 Speaker 2: they're trying to figure this out. Yeah, So basically when 1399 01:12:36,680 --> 01:12:40,920 Speaker 2: they put the two Mars rovers up their curiosity and perseverance, 1400 01:12:40,960 --> 01:12:45,360 Speaker 2: the Maven was the communication relay for NASA. So Maven's 1401 01:12:45,400 --> 01:12:48,080 Speaker 2: gone gone quiet, gone dark. The good news is that 1402 01:12:48,160 --> 01:12:51,080 Speaker 2: they do have two other spacecraft around Mars. They've got 1403 01:12:51,240 --> 01:12:55,599 Speaker 2: Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter and they've got Mars Odyssey. Those were 1404 01:12:55,720 --> 01:12:57,920 Speaker 2: launched in two thousand and one and two thousand and 1405 01:12:57,920 --> 01:13:01,720 Speaker 2: five respectively, and they will do the communication relay, so 1406 01:13:01,720 --> 01:13:04,360 Speaker 2: we can still communicate with things that are going around Mars, 1407 01:13:04,439 --> 01:13:07,240 Speaker 2: even if Maven for the meantime is a bit quiet. 1408 01:13:07,640 --> 01:13:10,519 Speaker 2: Jamie mckaiye hosted the Country on FONTIRA six thirteen. 1409 01:13:11,439 --> 01:13:14,960 Speaker 1: It's the Heather Dupasic Allen Drive Full Show podcast on 1410 01:13:15,080 --> 01:13:19,280 Speaker 1: iHeartRadio powered by Newstalk z EBB News Talk ZB. 1411 01:13:19,439 --> 01:13:22,040 Speaker 2: It is caught a past six Now after six thirty, 1412 01:13:22,080 --> 01:13:25,640 Speaker 2: will speak to Simon Watt's local government minister. We basically 1413 01:13:25,720 --> 01:13:29,400 Speaker 2: now have all of the councils coming in. Excuse me, 1414 01:13:29,479 --> 01:13:32,000 Speaker 2: my microphone has just done a weird thing. We basically 1415 01:13:32,080 --> 01:13:34,519 Speaker 2: now have all of the councils coming in and saying 1416 01:13:34,800 --> 01:13:37,960 Speaker 2: this is our plan for water, local water done well 1417 01:13:38,280 --> 01:13:40,600 Speaker 2: and we now also know how much it's likely to 1418 01:13:40,640 --> 01:13:42,720 Speaker 2: cost us. So we'll talk to Simon Wat's about that. 1419 01:13:42,800 --> 01:13:44,360 Speaker 2: It is sixteen halfter six. 1420 01:13:46,080 --> 01:13:49,160 Speaker 4: The Rural Report on Heather Duplessy Allen. 1421 01:13:49,000 --> 01:13:51,840 Speaker 2: Drive, Jamie McKay's with us host of the Country, Jamie 1422 01:13:51,880 --> 01:13:55,320 Speaker 2: good Evening. Gooday, Ryan, So is a nine dollars milk 1423 01:13:55,360 --> 01:13:57,600 Speaker 2: price on the cards for twenty five twenty six? What 1424 01:13:57,680 --> 01:13:58,120 Speaker 2: do we think? 1425 01:13:58,960 --> 01:14:01,800 Speaker 23: Well, it's not I think or you really, Ryan, it's 1426 01:14:01,840 --> 01:14:05,920 Speaker 23: probably what the experts think. And having just read and 1427 01:14:06,000 --> 01:14:10,840 Speaker 23: reviewed the Rabobank Q four Global Dairy Quarterly Report, a 1428 01:14:10,960 --> 01:14:14,360 Speaker 23: one sentence hit me right between the eyes. This was authored, 1429 01:14:14,400 --> 01:14:18,160 Speaker 23: by the way, by Emma Higgins, who's their senior ag analyst. 1430 01:14:19,000 --> 01:14:21,920 Speaker 23: She wrote, there is elevated risk that the farm gate 1431 01:14:21,960 --> 01:14:26,240 Speaker 23: milk price moves lower across the course of the season, 1432 01:14:26,600 --> 01:14:29,639 Speaker 23: which would mean that the final season payout lands around 1433 01:14:29,680 --> 01:14:33,320 Speaker 23: the nine dollars per kilogram of milk solid mark. So 1434 01:14:33,439 --> 01:14:37,639 Speaker 23: that's not a great number when we started the season 1435 01:14:37,800 --> 01:14:40,479 Speaker 23: with a ten dollar fore cast. Of course, Fonterra has 1436 01:14:40,520 --> 01:14:43,200 Speaker 23: since trimmed that to nine dollars fifty. But if it 1437 01:14:43,240 --> 01:14:46,599 Speaker 23: gets down to nine dollars, well, you know, the margins 1438 01:14:46,600 --> 01:14:49,519 Speaker 23: are getting a bit skinnier there. Because yesterday Dairy and 1439 01:14:49,640 --> 01:14:53,040 Speaker 23: Z came out with their econ tracker, which is their 1440 01:14:53,400 --> 01:14:56,080 Speaker 23: tool for working out how much it costs to produce milk, 1441 01:14:56,120 --> 01:14:59,160 Speaker 23: and they're saying the break even price is eight fifty. 1442 01:14:59,479 --> 01:15:01,880 Speaker 23: So you know, look, ten dollars is great. Nine dollars 1443 01:15:01,920 --> 01:15:05,599 Speaker 23: fifty is okay. Nine dollars jury's out a wee bit 1444 01:15:05,640 --> 01:15:07,280 Speaker 23: on that one. We've still got a long way to go. 1445 01:15:07,360 --> 01:15:10,400 Speaker 23: But the reason all this has happened, Ryan, and this 1446 01:15:10,439 --> 01:15:13,080 Speaker 23: is in the Global Dairy quarterly report as well, is 1447 01:15:13,120 --> 01:15:16,280 Speaker 23: because of stunning. That's the word they've used stunning global 1448 01:15:16,320 --> 01:15:20,479 Speaker 23: milk production growth across the second half of twenty twenty five. 1449 01:15:21,040 --> 01:15:24,160 Speaker 23: Right around the world, the EU and E K and 1450 01:15:24,360 --> 01:15:28,439 Speaker 23: UK should I say, have posted their strongest growth since 1451 01:15:29,439 --> 01:15:33,400 Speaker 23: twenty seventeen. For the month of October, US milk flows 1452 01:15:33,479 --> 01:15:37,799 Speaker 23: posted their fifth consecutive month of growth rates over three percent. 1453 01:15:38,120 --> 01:15:40,599 Speaker 23: Here in New Zealand, we're tacking along at about three 1454 01:15:40,680 --> 01:15:44,280 Speaker 23: point four percent ahead of where we were last year. 1455 01:15:44,640 --> 01:15:49,080 Speaker 23: The Big Seven, that's the EU, the US, US, Australia, Brazil, 1456 01:15:49,200 --> 01:15:53,320 Speaker 23: Argentina and Uruguay forecast to finish twenty twenty five up 1457 01:15:53,400 --> 01:15:56,439 Speaker 23: two point two percent year on here. So the guts 1458 01:15:56,479 --> 01:15:58,920 Speaker 23: of it all, Ryan, is, you know, the milk price 1459 01:15:58,960 --> 01:16:01,320 Speaker 23: has gone up. People are around the world, especially in 1460 01:16:01,360 --> 01:16:04,120 Speaker 23: places like the States where grain prices are low, have 1461 01:16:04,280 --> 01:16:09,920 Speaker 23: just moved their production from feeding stuff to feeding other stuff, 1462 01:16:09,960 --> 01:16:12,639 Speaker 23: basically dairy cows, and therein lies the. 1463 01:16:12,560 --> 01:16:15,439 Speaker 2: Problem and then all the milk comes on tap. Now 1464 01:16:15,600 --> 01:16:18,920 Speaker 2: our national lamb crop for the season is up a 1465 01:16:18,960 --> 01:16:21,440 Speaker 2: bit on the previous. 1466 01:16:21,280 --> 01:16:24,080 Speaker 23: Yeah, this is sort of a this is a really 1467 01:16:24,120 --> 01:16:26,879 Speaker 23: good news story, to be honest, Ryan. If you remember 1468 01:16:26,920 --> 01:16:29,560 Speaker 23: back and you're far too young to remember, back to 1469 01:16:29,120 --> 01:16:32,719 Speaker 23: the nineteen eighties. But when Rob Muldoon was in power 1470 01:16:32,760 --> 01:16:36,400 Speaker 23: and we had farming subsidies on a national sheep flock 1471 01:16:37,000 --> 01:16:41,759 Speaker 23: peaked at about over seventy million. Now we've got about 1472 01:16:41,760 --> 01:16:44,880 Speaker 23: twenty three million, twenty three or twenty four million, so 1473 01:16:45,000 --> 01:16:48,759 Speaker 23: we're well more than half. But the national lamb crop 1474 01:16:49,160 --> 01:16:52,320 Speaker 23: is going to be nineteen point sixty six million according 1475 01:16:52,320 --> 01:16:55,639 Speaker 23: to the Beef and Lamb New Zealand latest Lamb Crop Report. 1476 01:16:55,880 --> 01:16:59,599 Speaker 23: That's up about two hundred thousand lambs on last season. 1477 01:16:59,640 --> 01:17:01,840 Speaker 23: But the good news part of the story is a 1478 01:17:02,040 --> 01:17:04,719 Speaker 23: the lambing percentage has improved a whole lot one hundred 1479 01:17:04,760 --> 01:17:07,479 Speaker 23: and thirty one point one percent average across the country. 1480 01:17:07,479 --> 01:17:10,000 Speaker 23: That's amazing when you consider some of the land that 1481 01:17:10,439 --> 01:17:15,519 Speaker 23: they're farming on with these sheep sheep farms, and that's 1482 01:17:15,520 --> 01:17:17,880 Speaker 23: off the back of one point nine percent reduction and 1483 01:17:17,920 --> 01:17:22,040 Speaker 23: breeding you numbers. So the number of lambs processed is 1484 01:17:22,080 --> 01:17:24,439 Speaker 23: probably going to be in line with last year, which 1485 01:17:24,520 --> 01:17:26,960 Speaker 23: was down a million on the year before. And part 1486 01:17:27,000 --> 01:17:29,559 Speaker 23: of the reason for that is even though we've got 1487 01:17:29,600 --> 01:17:32,240 Speaker 23: more lambs, we're only going to process about the same amount. 1488 01:17:32,439 --> 01:17:35,680 Speaker 23: That's because some of those lambs born are going to 1489 01:17:35,720 --> 01:17:40,519 Speaker 23: be retained as you lambs to rebuild the breeding flock. 1490 01:17:40,880 --> 01:17:45,760 Speaker 23: Global lamb supply remains constrained. They're supported by an expected 1491 01:17:45,880 --> 01:17:50,560 Speaker 23: five point eight percent reduction and Australian lamb export availability 1492 01:17:50,560 --> 01:17:53,639 Speaker 23: and continued low New Zealand supply. The guts of all 1493 01:17:53,680 --> 01:17:57,200 Speaker 23: this is that farm gate prices are at historically high 1494 01:17:57,320 --> 01:18:00,759 Speaker 23: levels and probably will remain there at least for this season. 1495 01:18:00,960 --> 01:18:05,000 Speaker 23: Here's the final number for you, Ryan, Lamb is now 1496 01:18:05,040 --> 01:18:10,920 Speaker 23: eleven dollars a kilo milk, or the milk price could 1497 01:18:10,920 --> 01:18:13,400 Speaker 23: be as low as nine dollars a kilo. It's not 1498 01:18:13,479 --> 01:18:17,000 Speaker 23: often that lamb exceedstary. It's a while since we've seen that, 1499 01:18:17,160 --> 01:18:18,800 Speaker 23: So watch the space. 1500 01:18:18,880 --> 01:18:21,160 Speaker 2: Certainly will Jamie thank you for that. Jamie McKay, host 1501 01:18:21,160 --> 01:18:23,400 Speaker 2: of the country. Here on News Talks, Hedb. It is 1502 01:18:23,720 --> 01:18:26,720 Speaker 2: six twenty on your Thursday evening. Great to have your 1503 01:18:26,760 --> 01:18:28,640 Speaker 2: company or get to some of your tech's next and 1504 01:18:28,680 --> 01:18:29,599 Speaker 2: a bit of show biz. 1505 01:18:29,960 --> 01:18:33,880 Speaker 1: Whether it's macro micro or just plain economics. It's all 1506 01:18:34,000 --> 01:18:37,880 Speaker 1: on the business hours with Ryan Bridge and Ma's Motor 1507 01:18:37,960 --> 01:18:38,840 Speaker 1: Vehicle Insurance. 1508 01:18:39,080 --> 01:18:41,759 Speaker 4: Your futures in good hands. News Talks. 1509 01:18:41,760 --> 01:18:44,000 Speaker 2: That'd be twenty three after six, So the hero's got 1510 01:18:44,040 --> 01:18:46,360 Speaker 2: a story from an OAA that they've done to police. 1511 01:18:46,439 --> 01:18:48,800 Speaker 2: The police when they were looking for Tom Phillips set 1512 01:18:48,840 --> 01:18:50,640 Speaker 2: up cameras in the bush to try and find and 1513 01:18:50,760 --> 01:18:53,200 Speaker 2: try and catch them. And they were motion sensor cameras, 1514 01:18:53,240 --> 01:18:58,000 Speaker 2: so if things moved, presumably you'd pick up a possum 1515 01:18:58,080 --> 01:19:00,519 Speaker 2: or something, but obviously you'd pick up Tom Phillips and 1516 01:19:00,600 --> 01:19:02,439 Speaker 2: the kids as well if they were in the bush 1517 01:19:02,479 --> 01:19:05,920 Speaker 2: and on the move. So they twenty eight motion sensor 1518 01:19:05,960 --> 01:19:08,880 Speaker 2: cameras in the bush. We know that much. They won't 1519 01:19:08,920 --> 01:19:12,280 Speaker 2: tell us where they were because there's obviously ongoing investigation 1520 01:19:12,320 --> 01:19:14,559 Speaker 2: and stuff like that going on, So those things we 1521 01:19:14,600 --> 01:19:16,640 Speaker 2: don't know, but we do know there were cameras. We 1522 01:19:16,680 --> 01:19:19,080 Speaker 2: do know they were motion sens and we do actually 1523 01:19:19,240 --> 01:19:23,240 Speaker 2: know that they did pick up Tom and potentially the 1524 01:19:23,320 --> 01:19:25,400 Speaker 2: kids at some point, but they just weren't in an 1525 01:19:25,479 --> 01:19:27,599 Speaker 2: area where police could get too easily. So I suppose 1526 01:19:27,640 --> 01:19:30,240 Speaker 2: you've got this footage, But what I mean, it's not 1527 01:19:30,280 --> 01:19:32,880 Speaker 2: like you can send the troops the cavalry in and 1528 01:19:33,320 --> 01:19:36,960 Speaker 2: swoop on them quick smart, So wasn't actually very effective 1529 01:19:37,000 --> 01:19:39,280 Speaker 2: obviously in catching them. In fact, nothing they did was 1530 01:19:39,360 --> 01:19:41,800 Speaker 2: very effective in catching them. At all until the fourth 1531 01:19:41,880 --> 01:19:44,400 Speaker 2: year of it was it If we're being honest, twenty 1532 01:19:44,439 --> 01:19:45,679 Speaker 2: four minutes after six. 1533 01:19:46,120 --> 01:19:48,960 Speaker 4: There's no business like show business. 1534 01:19:49,360 --> 01:19:56,960 Speaker 2: Fucking Rolling Stone magazine has crowned the best Australian and 1535 01:19:57,000 --> 01:19:59,439 Speaker 2: New Zealand songs at the twenty first century so far, 1536 01:20:00,000 --> 01:20:04,280 Speaker 2: settled on the best three hundred songs. G says, who 1537 01:20:04,320 --> 01:20:08,400 Speaker 2: did this? Took them a while?

Here's here she is serving sharpened club 1546 01:20:37,439 --> 01:20:39,600 Speaker 2: beats that wouldn't have sounded out of place in a 1547 01:20:39,640 --> 01:20:43,200 Speaker 2: German electro cup from the eighties, a style so ahead 1548 01:20:43,240 --> 01:20:47,040 Speaker 2: of its time it seems futuristic now, and doesn't it? 1549 01:20:48,120 --> 01:20:51,800 Speaker 2: Number one, the number one the top song of the 1550 01:20:51,880 --> 01:20:54,879 Speaker 2: last quarter of a century from Australia and New Zealand 1551 01:20:56,200 --> 01:21:06,719 Speaker 2: as us. 1552 01:21:00,360 --> 01:21:04,680 Speaker 20: Out that kind of loves just a for us, we 1553 01:21:04,840 --> 01:21:07,400 Speaker 20: create a different kind of bout Let me be. 1554 01:21:09,080 --> 01:21:09,160 Speaker 19: So. 1555 01:21:09,360 --> 01:21:13,360 Speaker 2: Lord's debut song came out in twenty thirteen, Rolling Stone 1556 01:21:13,439 --> 01:21:18,439 Speaker 2: describing it as a zeitgeist grabbing history making hit. The 1557 01:21:18,479 --> 01:21:23,160 Speaker 2: magazine says no other track has reshaped pop music quite 1558 01:21:23,360 --> 01:21:24,560 Speaker 2: like Royals. 1559 01:21:25,000 --> 01:21:26,320 Speaker 8: I was cractical. 1560 01:21:29,680 --> 01:21:30,840 Speaker 17: We count our. 1561 01:21:30,640 --> 01:21:32,480 Speaker 4: Dollars on chain. 1562 01:21:33,000 --> 01:21:36,960 Speaker 2: To the party and there it is a twenty six 1563 01:21:37,000 --> 01:21:38,920 Speaker 2: minutes up six So does that when we took out 1564 01:21:39,040 --> 01:21:41,840 Speaker 2: number one ants, they might have got come for two 1565 01:21:41,920 --> 01:21:45,840 Speaker 2: and three.

I suppose, yeah, maybe maybe we. 1569 01:21:55,680 --> 01:21:57,760 Speaker 9: Don't really who really likes it. It's a personal taste thing. 1570 01:21:57,800 --> 01:21:59,519 Speaker 9: But I remember a Vice article from a few years 1571 01:21:59,520 --> 01:22:01,559 Speaker 9: ago where they to people who were at an Empire 1572 01:22:01,600 --> 01:22:03,439 Speaker 9: of the Sun set at a festival and just interviewed 1573 01:22:03,479 --> 01:22:05,680 Speaker 9: them more on why on earth they were there, like. 1574 01:22:05,880 --> 01:22:06,960 Speaker 2: Just and what did they say? 1575 01:22:07,080 --> 01:22:09,120 Speaker 9: Well, they were all like, yeah, they're great advice. It's like, well, 1576 01:22:09,160 --> 01:22:13,240 Speaker 9: are they like, are they really that good? Clearly very divisive. 1577 01:22:13,400 --> 01:22:15,960 Speaker 2: Well, Rolling Stone would be the authority, wouldn't that both 1578 01:22:16,080 --> 01:22:18,679 Speaker 2: they know what they're talking about. Twenty seven after six now, 1579 01:22:18,880 --> 01:22:20,719 Speaker 2: Simon Watts, the local government minister. 1580 01:22:20,800 --> 01:22:25,400 Speaker 7: Next, you can call me creepy. 1581 01:22:30,920 --> 01:22:34,160 Speaker 2: Let me live that fantasy. 1582 01:22:34,160 --> 01:22:38,000 Speaker 1: Everything from SMEs to the big corporates, the Business Hour 1583 01:22:38,360 --> 01:22:42,639 Speaker 1: with Ryan Bridge and Mass Motor Vehicle Insurance, your futures 1584 01:22:42,760 --> 01:22:44,599 Speaker 1: in goodheads used talks. 1585 01:22:44,640 --> 01:22:48,680 Speaker 24: It'd be we could be last, last. 1586 01:22:53,400 --> 01:22:58,920 Speaker 2: Nasty twenty five away from the talks. People get you 1587 01:22:58,960 --> 01:23:01,960 Speaker 2: in the radio UK correspondent shortly. First though, the bills 1588 01:23:02,000 --> 01:23:04,640 Speaker 2: in for all that water infrastructure that we need to 1589 01:23:04,640 --> 01:23:08,200 Speaker 2: build so desperately, and it's nine billion dollars more expensive 1590 01:23:08,320 --> 01:23:11,519 Speaker 2: than previously thought. Councils have now all submitted their local 1591 01:23:11,560 --> 01:23:13,880 Speaker 2: water done Well plans to the government. They're expected to 1592 01:23:13,880 --> 01:23:17,280 Speaker 2: spend forty eight billion dollars on water. Simon Watt, says 1593 01:23:17,360 --> 01:23:19,960 Speaker 2: the local government minister, and joins me Tonight, good evening, 1594 01:23:19,960 --> 01:23:24,799 Speaker 2: Minister Earding Ryan Seasons Gruden Season's greetings. So what's happening 1595 01:23:24,840 --> 01:23:28,240 Speaker 2: with this? The extra nine billion than we thought? Is 1596 01:23:28,600 --> 01:23:33,480 Speaker 2: that because something has changed or is the estimated cost change. 1597 01:23:34,520 --> 01:23:37,880 Speaker 26: No, it's basically the councils have done a review and 1598 01:23:37,920 --> 01:23:40,559 Speaker 26: a forecast of what they believe they need to spend 1599 01:23:40,600 --> 01:23:44,200 Speaker 26: over the next decade, and that is up on where 1600 01:23:44,200 --> 01:23:46,360 Speaker 26: they before had their plans. 1601 01:23:46,920 --> 01:23:48,639 Speaker 11: Only it's going to be clear, this is what. 1602 01:23:48,520 --> 01:23:51,360 Speaker 26: They believe they need. Then you've got to work out 1603 01:23:51,400 --> 01:23:54,240 Speaker 26: what their capacity is to actually undertake the work and 1604 01:23:54,280 --> 01:23:57,240 Speaker 26: what they can spend and invest. But the highlight is 1605 01:23:57,760 --> 01:23:59,200 Speaker 26: we've got an infrastructure deficit. 1606 01:23:59,280 --> 01:24:01,639 Speaker 11: We all know that we need to get more. 1607 01:24:01,640 --> 01:24:04,880 Speaker 26: Money going into pipes in the infrastructure and we've now 1608 01:24:04,920 --> 01:24:07,960 Speaker 26: got entities that can deliver that change and over the 1609 01:24:07,960 --> 01:24:10,000 Speaker 26: next decade that means more jobs for kiwis. 1610 01:24:10,320 --> 01:24:12,800 Speaker 2: So this is what they believe they will need. Can 1611 01:24:12,840 --> 01:24:13,639 Speaker 2: they afford it? 1612 01:24:14,880 --> 01:24:17,799 Speaker 26: They can based on the assessment that the independent regulator, 1613 01:24:17,840 --> 01:24:21,240 Speaker 26: the Commerce Commission have done. That process is now complete. 1614 01:24:21,280 --> 01:24:24,080 Speaker 26: They reviewed all sixty eight of councils and with the 1615 01:24:24,120 --> 01:24:26,759 Speaker 26: exception of one which has got a facilitator in place, 1616 01:24:27,000 --> 01:24:29,160 Speaker 26: the rest have been signed off. So we're in a 1617 01:24:29,280 --> 01:24:31,639 Speaker 26: really good spot. And you know that's pretty good within 1618 01:24:32,240 --> 01:24:34,920 Speaker 26: in effect twelve months from when the legislation got passed. 1619 01:24:35,360 --> 01:24:37,680 Speaker 2: Is it cheaper them under what three waters would have 1620 01:24:37,720 --> 01:24:38,160 Speaker 2: cost us? 1621 01:24:39,320 --> 01:24:39,559 Speaker 6: Well? 1622 01:24:39,720 --> 01:24:42,320 Speaker 26: Ryan I mean, as you know, that's a hypothetical because 1623 01:24:42,400 --> 01:24:44,559 Speaker 26: those guys got voted out and they never put that 1624 01:24:44,680 --> 01:24:48,479 Speaker 26: policy into practice. We are of the view, compared to 1625 01:24:48,520 --> 01:24:51,400 Speaker 26: the status quo, this is going to be a better 1626 01:24:51,439 --> 01:24:53,920 Speaker 26: deal for rate payers. And why I say that is 1627 01:24:53,920 --> 01:24:56,920 Speaker 26: because you know, we've got financially sustainable entities who are 1628 01:24:56,920 --> 01:25:00,000 Speaker 26: going to be undertaking this infrastructure investment. It's a big 1629 01:25:00,080 --> 01:25:02,960 Speaker 26: pot of money, right, No one's arguing about that. And 1630 01:25:03,040 --> 01:25:05,800 Speaker 26: I think we do need to acknowledge the capacity of 1631 01:25:05,840 --> 01:25:08,440 Speaker 26: the system, but I think what we need is consistent 1632 01:25:08,560 --> 01:25:12,640 Speaker 26: and stable investment over decades, not that lumpiness. And you 1633 01:25:12,680 --> 01:25:14,040 Speaker 26: know that's something that we're now. 1634 01:25:13,880 --> 01:25:15,120 Speaker 11: Set up to deliver. 1635 01:25:15,400 --> 01:25:17,679 Speaker 2: Okay, so they can afford to do it. It means 1636 01:25:17,680 --> 01:25:19,240 Speaker 2: a hell of a lot of money they can afford 1637 01:25:19,280 --> 01:25:21,800 Speaker 2: to do it. That's been signed off. We're given them 1638 01:25:22,080 --> 01:25:24,960 Speaker 2: the tick tick for that. When will people actually start 1639 01:25:25,040 --> 01:25:28,439 Speaker 2: to see their pipes or not actually more to the point, 1640 01:25:28,560 --> 01:25:29,639 Speaker 2: not see their pipes. 1641 01:25:31,360 --> 01:25:32,839 Speaker 5: Well, that work's already started. 1642 01:25:32,880 --> 01:25:35,519 Speaker 26: And if you're living in Auckland, for example, water care, 1643 01:25:35,560 --> 01:25:39,400 Speaker 26: we're first out of the gates and are undertaking that work. 1644 01:25:40,080 --> 01:25:42,120 Speaker 26: You know, at pace there's a lot of build up 1645 01:25:42,160 --> 01:25:45,080 Speaker 26: of capability. We need more water engineers, we need more 1646 01:25:45,400 --> 01:25:47,479 Speaker 26: people in that neck of the woods, and that's good 1647 01:25:47,560 --> 01:25:49,200 Speaker 26: as well in terms of capability. 1648 01:25:49,560 --> 01:25:51,520 Speaker 6: But this work has already started. 1649 01:25:51,120 --> 01:25:53,400 Speaker 26: And you're really going to see the industry build up 1650 01:25:53,439 --> 01:25:56,880 Speaker 26: to what I would expect peak delivery over the next 1651 01:25:57,080 --> 01:25:57,960 Speaker 26: two to three years. 1652 01:25:58,040 --> 01:26:00,120 Speaker 2: Two to three years. So like you know Wellington, we 1653 01:26:00,400 --> 01:26:03,559 Speaker 2: see those stories every second week of pipes bursting and 1654 01:26:03,640 --> 01:26:07,080 Speaker 2: water going all over the street and stuff. When will 1655 01:26:07,120 --> 01:26:09,800 Speaker 2: that not happen well Ryn. 1656 01:26:10,320 --> 01:26:12,200 Speaker 26: You know, that's a challenging one because there's a lot 1657 01:26:12,200 --> 01:26:15,000 Speaker 26: of pipes in Wellington. But what I can be clear 1658 01:26:15,040 --> 01:26:18,280 Speaker 26: about is now they've got a stable entity to deliver 1659 01:26:18,320 --> 01:26:21,479 Speaker 26: that infrastructure. It's been reviewed by the ComCom. So we're 1660 01:26:21,479 --> 01:26:23,479 Speaker 26: getting out of the planning and these guys can start 1661 01:26:23,520 --> 01:26:25,439 Speaker 26: doing the doing. And I think that's what rate payers 1662 01:26:25,439 --> 01:26:28,000 Speaker 26: have been calling for. They want this stuff to get 1663 01:26:28,000 --> 01:26:29,559 Speaker 26: on and be done. But you've got to acknowledge when 1664 01:26:29,560 --> 01:26:32,160 Speaker 26: you build infrastructure, you've got to do that over a 1665 01:26:32,200 --> 01:26:35,000 Speaker 26: long period of time, in consistent program to do that. 1666 01:26:35,200 --> 01:26:37,880 Speaker 26: So that's underway now and that's going to be good 1667 01:26:37,880 --> 01:26:38,800 Speaker 26: for our communities. 1668 01:26:39,080 --> 01:26:40,680 Speaker 2: How were you in the house today? Apparently it was 1669 01:26:40,720 --> 01:26:43,120 Speaker 2: all getting but instead of that end of year rightist 1670 01:26:43,160 --> 01:26:46,000 Speaker 2: thing seems to be seems to be coming into play 1671 01:26:46,040 --> 01:26:47,639 Speaker 2: in the house. What was it like there tonight. 1672 01:26:48,560 --> 01:26:51,840 Speaker 26: Yeah, it's pretty pretty jovial and everyone's fired up. I mean, 1673 01:26:52,080 --> 01:26:55,360 Speaker 26: I'm in the chair till when Parliament goes to midnight tonight, 1674 01:26:55,439 --> 01:26:58,160 Speaker 26: and I've got my bills going through all stages, so 1675 01:26:58,160 --> 01:27:01,000 Speaker 26: I'll be don't you when you're ake at midnight doing 1676 01:27:01,000 --> 01:27:02,559 Speaker 26: whatever you do, you can think of me. I'll be 1677 01:27:02,560 --> 01:27:05,080 Speaker 26: still sitting in a chair in Parliament doing the good 1678 01:27:05,080 --> 01:27:05,599 Speaker 26: work for the. 1679 01:27:05,520 --> 01:27:08,439 Speaker 2: Public I'm doing on this drive show at the moment, 1680 01:27:08,520 --> 01:27:11,639 Speaker 2: So I'm happily. I will be happily sleeping tonight Simon, 1681 01:27:11,640 --> 01:27:13,519 Speaker 2: while you're working, which would be a nice chair. 1682 01:27:14,240 --> 01:27:15,759 Speaker 26: I might give you a shout out at midnight. 1683 01:27:15,800 --> 01:27:17,120 Speaker 11: There you go, Okay, all. 1684 01:27:17,080 --> 01:27:19,439 Speaker 2: Right, hey, appreciate your time. That Simon Watt's Local government 1685 01:27:19,439 --> 01:27:23,240 Speaker 2: minister is twenty one minutes away from seven News to Rainbridge. 1686 01:27:24,200 --> 01:27:26,040 Speaker 2: We'll get to get end of Brady, who's our UK 1687 01:27:26,120 --> 01:27:29,320 Speaker 2: correspondent in just a second. Do you really if you're 1688 01:27:29,360 --> 01:27:32,640 Speaker 2: living in Wellington and you have seen the flood, you 1689 01:27:32,680 --> 01:27:35,600 Speaker 2: know the streets flood, you've seen your been walking to 1690 01:27:35,680 --> 01:27:38,920 Speaker 2: work and you've seen your morning's breakfast following you down 1691 01:27:38,920 --> 01:27:42,320 Speaker 2: the street. Do you when do you realistically think that 1692 01:27:42,400 --> 01:27:45,720 Speaker 2: will be fixed? Because, like he's right, Simon Whatt, it's 1693 01:27:45,720 --> 01:27:50,400 Speaker 2: not going to happen overnight. But realistically, how long is 1694 01:27:50,439 --> 01:27:52,599 Speaker 2: it going to take to fix one hundred year old 1695 01:27:52,640 --> 01:27:55,000 Speaker 2: pipes that are not just in one street or two 1696 01:27:55,040 --> 01:27:59,280 Speaker 2: streets or the city center, but everywhere in town. It's 1697 01:27:59,280 --> 01:28:00,880 Speaker 2: going to be a lot to be whild, isn't it? 1698 01:28:00,880 --> 01:28:04,200 Speaker 2: Like I think, because we've got the legislation passing, because 1699 01:28:04,200 --> 01:28:07,760 Speaker 2: we've got the water done well thing happening, I think 1700 01:28:07,800 --> 01:28:11,320 Speaker 2: there's probably an expectation that we click our fingers and 1701 01:28:11,360 --> 01:28:13,880 Speaker 2: things will be done. But this is this is decades 1702 01:28:13,880 --> 01:28:17,400 Speaker 2: of not investing. It's going to mean probably decades of 1703 01:28:17,439 --> 01:28:20,240 Speaker 2: now investing and god knows how long before we actually 1704 01:28:20,280 --> 01:28:25,439 Speaker 2: see our streets not flooding whenever there are pipe bursts. 1705 01:28:25,640 --> 01:28:26,360 Speaker 2: Twenty to seven. 1706 01:28:27,040 --> 01:28:29,760 Speaker 1: Eff, it's to do with money. It matters to you. 1707 01:28:30,439 --> 01:28:35,080 Speaker 1: The Business Hour with Ryan Bridge and Mass Motor Vehicle Insurance, 1708 01:28:35,400 --> 01:28:38,880 Speaker 1: your futures in good hands. News talks 'B. 1709 01:28:38,720 --> 01:28:41,000 Speaker 2: Seventeen to seven. On News TALKSB, we were just talking 1710 01:28:41,000 --> 01:28:43,639 Speaker 2: about infrastructure and water and all that stuff. And Gale 1711 01:28:43,680 --> 01:28:45,800 Speaker 2: is sent in a really interesting text. Who's listening into 1712 01:28:45,800 --> 01:28:48,040 Speaker 2: the program? Gale, good evening, Nice to have you listening. 1713 01:28:48,600 --> 01:28:51,479 Speaker 2: I'm just driving through an area of west Auckland that 1714 01:28:51,560 --> 01:28:53,400 Speaker 2: was hit hard by the floods of two or three 1715 01:28:53,479 --> 01:28:57,799 Speaker 2: years ago. This is Gale's area. Every drain I walked past, 1716 01:28:57,960 --> 01:29:00,519 Speaker 2: or drive past, I should say, is blocked with leaves. 1717 01:29:00,800 --> 01:29:02,960 Speaker 2: I don't understand why the people who live in those 1718 01:29:03,000 --> 01:29:05,800 Speaker 2: houses can't get out with a rubbish bag every now 1719 01:29:05,840 --> 01:29:08,439 Speaker 2: and then and sweep up a few leaves, put them 1720 01:29:08,479 --> 01:29:11,240 Speaker 2: in a bag. I keep our drains absolutely clear because 1721 01:29:11,280 --> 01:29:13,040 Speaker 2: I don't want my house to flood. I just don't 1722 01:29:13,080 --> 01:29:17,360 Speaker 2: understand why people think it's always somebody else's job. Gail, 1723 01:29:17,960 --> 01:29:22,080 Speaker 2: great text, Thank you and good point. And I think 1724 01:29:22,120 --> 01:29:26,720 Speaker 2: because we pay rates, because we pay such exorbitant amounts, 1725 01:29:27,240 --> 01:29:30,680 Speaker 2: I think people just do it's someone else's it's the 1726 01:29:30,720 --> 01:29:34,559 Speaker 2: council's job or problem. But you're right, before councils, what 1727 01:29:34,640 --> 01:29:36,760 Speaker 2: did we have? We had each other? Didn't we we 1728 01:29:36,840 --> 01:29:39,800 Speaker 2: had like communities, we would one, we would talk to 1729 01:29:39,840 --> 01:29:42,559 Speaker 2: each other. People barely do that to their neighbors these days. 1730 01:29:42,880 --> 01:29:45,919 Speaker 2: But also you would organize jobs. You are on Saturday. 1731 01:29:46,000 --> 01:29:47,599 Speaker 2: We're all gonna get together and we're gonna do this. 1732 01:29:48,040 --> 01:29:51,280 Speaker 2: We're gonna, you know, lay that concrete. We're gonna build 1733 01:29:51,280 --> 01:29:53,759 Speaker 2: this road, We're gonna do something. We're gonna mow the berm, 1734 01:29:53,960 --> 01:29:57,880 Speaker 2: mow the berm. Now it's everything is the council's problem 1735 01:29:57,960 --> 01:30:00,479 Speaker 2: and the council's fault, and they do make a bit 1736 01:30:00,479 --> 01:30:02,960 Speaker 2: of a rod for their own beck because when you 1737 01:30:03,040 --> 01:30:05,600 Speaker 2: try and do something, they say no, you can't do 1738 01:30:05,720 --> 01:30:08,080 Speaker 2: that because you'll get in trouble, and then there's health 1739 01:30:08,120 --> 01:30:10,800 Speaker 2: and safety and someone's toe gets run over. Then you 1740 01:30:10,800 --> 01:30:14,360 Speaker 2: know you'll go to jail. So there is that problem. 1741 01:30:14,360 --> 01:30:18,120 Speaker 2: But the sentiment, gal I completely agree with, get out 1742 01:30:18,120 --> 01:30:21,840 Speaker 2: there and do your own stuff. New Zealand quarter to seven, 1743 01:30:22,280 --> 01:30:25,160 Speaker 2: Ryan Bridge getting in the Brady a UK correspondent. Good evening, 1744 01:30:25,200 --> 01:30:25,960 Speaker 2: Good morning to you in. 1745 01:30:26,000 --> 01:30:29,280 Speaker 11: The well, said Ryan. Love that attitude. 1746 01:30:29,880 --> 01:30:32,160 Speaker 2: Now, the doctor's strike, this could all be called off 1747 01:30:32,160 --> 01:30:33,560 Speaker 2: at the last minute. 1748 01:30:34,200 --> 01:30:37,559 Speaker 11: So yes, I think a combination of factors here, they're 1749 01:30:37,600 --> 01:30:40,160 Speaker 11: reading the room. For a start, we've got this strain 1750 01:30:40,280 --> 01:30:44,080 Speaker 11: of a so called superflu which is predicted to get 1751 01:30:44,120 --> 01:30:47,439 Speaker 11: to a tidal wave level next week. It's bad. I 1752 01:30:47,439 --> 01:30:50,479 Speaker 11: mean the government and medical leaders are saying to people that, 1753 01:30:50,760 --> 01:30:52,800 Speaker 11: you know, if you're on public transports, if you're out 1754 01:30:52,800 --> 01:30:55,840 Speaker 11: on the boat, start wearing face masks again. And I've 1755 01:30:55,880 --> 01:30:57,840 Speaker 11: noticed this the last couple of weeks on the tube 1756 01:30:57,840 --> 01:31:01,360 Speaker 11: in London. Initially I was thinking, okay, these visitors, and 1757 01:31:01,400 --> 01:31:03,120 Speaker 11: then it was happening at six am when I was 1758 01:31:03,120 --> 01:31:06,479 Speaker 11: on the tube sitting with Ukrainian builders going to work. 1759 01:31:06,800 --> 01:31:09,240 Speaker 11: A lot of people are now wearing face masks because 1760 01:31:09,280 --> 01:31:12,640 Speaker 11: they don't want to get this superflu before Christmas. So 1761 01:31:12,920 --> 01:31:16,880 Speaker 11: junior doctors are unhappy about money again, pay and working 1762 01:31:16,920 --> 01:31:21,080 Speaker 11: conditions and lack of training opportunities in the UK. They've 1763 01:31:21,080 --> 01:31:24,599 Speaker 11: threatened a five day strike starting December seventeenth. So what's 1764 01:31:24,640 --> 01:31:28,000 Speaker 11: that next Wednesday? For five days? And they've got the 1765 01:31:28,040 --> 01:31:30,599 Speaker 11: government over a barrel. And what's happened now? I think 1766 01:31:30,600 --> 01:31:35,599 Speaker 11: the combination of the superflu and the junior doctors basically 1767 01:31:35,600 --> 01:31:38,160 Speaker 11: not having a huge amount of public support, the government 1768 01:31:38,160 --> 01:31:40,400 Speaker 11: has reached out and just said let's talk. So there's 1769 01:31:40,400 --> 01:31:43,240 Speaker 11: some sort of an offer in the pipeline. Will it 1770 01:31:43,320 --> 01:31:46,400 Speaker 11: be enough to call off a strike at the last minute? 1771 01:31:46,479 --> 01:31:51,000 Speaker 2: Let's see now, they're dropping like flyers from Eurovision. This 1772 01:31:51,120 --> 01:31:52,880 Speaker 2: is a bit of a crisis for them. Now, which 1773 01:31:52,880 --> 01:31:54,280 Speaker 2: country is the lightest to pull out? 1774 01:31:55,360 --> 01:31:58,839 Speaker 11: Iceland? So that is now five countries in the space 1775 01:31:59,000 --> 01:32:01,759 Speaker 11: of forty eight hours have said they will not perform 1776 01:32:02,000 --> 01:32:05,599 Speaker 11: next year in May at Eurovision if Israel is allowed 1777 01:32:05,600 --> 01:32:09,680 Speaker 11: to participate. Now the organizers, the European Broadcasting Union, they 1778 01:32:09,680 --> 01:32:12,559 Speaker 11: are adamant that Israel will be allowed to sing. And 1779 01:32:12,680 --> 01:32:17,720 Speaker 11: what's happened now this week Ireland, Spain, Slovenia, the Netherlands 1780 01:32:18,080 --> 01:32:22,000 Speaker 11: and now last night Iceland. Five countries have all come 1781 01:32:22,040 --> 01:32:25,280 Speaker 11: out and said Okay, if they're in, we're out. And 1782 01:32:25,320 --> 01:32:29,559 Speaker 11: I think it's just real anger over the impunity with 1783 01:32:29,600 --> 01:32:32,920 Speaker 11: which Israel seems to be allowed to play soccer continuing 1784 01:32:32,960 --> 01:32:37,360 Speaker 11: cultural events like Eurovision, despite seventy thousand civilians dead in 1785 01:32:37,439 --> 01:32:40,559 Speaker 11: Gaza in two years. So all these countries are making 1786 01:32:40,560 --> 01:32:44,520 Speaker 11: a stand, putting pressure on the organizers who are unflinching 1787 01:32:44,600 --> 01:32:45,040 Speaker 11: so far. 1788 01:32:45,640 --> 01:32:47,599 Speaker 2: Yeah, tell me about that. I love a good local 1789 01:32:47,680 --> 01:32:51,400 Speaker 2: council local baro story in London in the UK more generally, 1790 01:32:51,439 --> 01:32:54,240 Speaker 2: but this one in London, and it's a five hundred 1791 01:32:54,320 --> 01:32:56,200 Speaker 2: thousand dollars rolls Royce on the pavement. 1792 01:32:57,680 --> 01:33:00,840 Speaker 11: Yes, so there is one of the plushes squares in 1793 01:33:00,880 --> 01:33:03,280 Speaker 11: London if you want to buy a little property there, 1794 01:33:03,320 --> 01:33:06,160 Speaker 11: and I'm talking not a massive one. Twelve million dollars 1795 01:33:06,240 --> 01:33:09,200 Speaker 11: is the average starting price for a property on Grosvenor 1796 01:33:09,320 --> 01:33:12,160 Speaker 11: Square in central London. So you can imagine the people 1797 01:33:12,160 --> 01:33:14,559 Speaker 11: who can afford that kind of money. They want to 1798 01:33:14,560 --> 01:33:17,439 Speaker 11: be able to walk the pavements without having to go 1799 01:33:17,479 --> 01:33:20,400 Speaker 11: out into the road because someone from Saudi Arabia has 1800 01:33:20,439 --> 01:33:24,120 Speaker 11: parked a half a million dollars Rolls Royce and if 1801 01:33:24,120 --> 01:33:28,080 Speaker 11: you see pictures online of this vehicle, it doesn't it's 1802 01:33:28,160 --> 01:33:31,880 Speaker 11: not a classy looking vehicle. It's just like a huge, big, 1803 01:33:31,920 --> 01:33:35,639 Speaker 11: blocky chunk of metal blocking the pavement. So they've been 1804 01:33:35,800 --> 01:33:39,360 Speaker 11: inundated with complaints from local residents saying we can't walk 1805 01:33:39,360 --> 01:33:42,760 Speaker 11: on the pavement because of all these supercars everywhere. So 1806 01:33:42,800 --> 01:33:44,759 Speaker 11: the council turned up with a tow truck and it's gone. 1807 01:33:45,760 --> 01:33:48,439 Speaker 11: They realize that, you know, one hundred and twenty dollars 1808 01:33:48,439 --> 01:33:51,519 Speaker 11: fine for illegal parking ain't gonna touch the sides. If 1809 01:33:51,520 --> 01:33:53,960 Speaker 11: you can afford half a mil for a Rolls Royce 1810 01:33:54,120 --> 01:33:57,479 Speaker 11: and you live in Saudi Arabia, so they forgot about 1811 01:33:57,600 --> 01:33:59,880 Speaker 11: just basically thought, let's just not issue a fixed penalty 1812 01:34:00,200 --> 01:34:02,720 Speaker 11: was on the windscreen here, just get the toll truck out. 1813 01:34:02,920 --> 01:34:05,519 Speaker 11: So they're starting to move them. And funnily enough, this 1814 01:34:05,600 --> 01:34:08,800 Speaker 11: morning we're hearing this Grosvenor Square and other parts of 1815 01:34:08,880 --> 01:34:12,360 Speaker 11: Belgravia and really wealthy bits of central London there's no 1816 01:34:12,479 --> 01:34:13,639 Speaker 11: illegal parking today. 1817 01:34:15,240 --> 01:34:17,519 Speaker 2: Great, well that's the out coming on. That's the counsel 1818 01:34:17,520 --> 01:34:19,800 Speaker 2: I suppose doing its job. And thank you and Brady 1819 01:34:19,880 --> 01:34:23,800 Speaker 2: a UK correspondent, eleven away from seven. Now some of 1820 01:34:23,840 --> 01:34:26,599 Speaker 2: your texts on the working bee is the word yes, 1821 01:34:26,640 --> 01:34:28,439 Speaker 2: thank you for that text. That's the word I was 1822 01:34:28,479 --> 01:34:32,040 Speaker 2: searching for but couldn't quite grasp. This is on from 1823 01:34:32,080 --> 01:34:34,439 Speaker 2: Gail who's in West Auckland, says people should just clear 1824 01:34:34,479 --> 01:34:36,200 Speaker 2: their own drains. Why are you waiting for the council 1825 01:34:36,280 --> 01:34:38,439 Speaker 2: to do it? Next time it rains the whole suburb 1826 01:34:38,479 --> 01:34:41,720 Speaker 2: is going to flood again. Another says Ryan Gale is right. 1827 01:34:42,240 --> 01:34:44,920 Speaker 2: Worse still, I saw a guy tipping his burm lawn 1828 01:34:44,920 --> 01:34:50,519 Speaker 2: clippings into a drain. Cardinal sin Ryan about the leaves 1829 01:34:50,520 --> 01:34:52,880 Speaker 2: and the drains. How about those people that blow all 1830 01:34:52,920 --> 01:34:54,920 Speaker 2: of their leaves from their property into the road in 1831 01:34:54,920 --> 01:34:57,840 Speaker 2: the first place, which end up in the drains. We 1832 01:34:57,920 --> 01:35:00,360 Speaker 2: have these people on our lovely street and they're very annoying. 1833 01:35:00,439 --> 01:35:04,840 Speaker 2: That's from Karen. Thank you, Karen Ryan. Our Residents Association 1834 01:35:04,960 --> 01:35:07,880 Speaker 2: and Grafton regularly organizes drain and gut to clean up. 1835 01:35:07,920 --> 01:35:09,920 Speaker 2: Some more communities should do the same. I think they 1836 01:35:09,920 --> 01:35:12,200 Speaker 2: should too. But what do you do when you've got 1837 01:35:12,200 --> 01:35:15,400 Speaker 2: half the street blowing stuff down a drain and then 1838 01:35:15,439 --> 01:35:17,400 Speaker 2: you what are you gonna have the other half cleaning 1839 01:35:17,439 --> 01:35:20,880 Speaker 2: it up? No? One's sort of and we need to 1840 01:35:20,920 --> 01:35:22,680 Speaker 2: be a bit more combine. We need to be in 1841 01:35:22,720 --> 01:35:26,439 Speaker 2: cahoots on this, don't we, rather than sort of going 1842 01:35:26,439 --> 01:35:29,400 Speaker 2: in our own directions.

The hole just keeps 1849 01:35:48,960 --> 01:35:51,280 Speaker 2: digging and digging and digging, getting deeper and deeper and deeper. 1850 01:35:51,360 --> 01:35:54,639 Speaker 2: They'll reach China soon, So what's happened is that emails 1851 01:35:54,760 --> 01:35:57,840 Speaker 2: between marium and a KAPAKINGI and a guy who you 1852 01:35:57,920 --> 01:36:01,200 Speaker 2: probably haven't heard of, called Lance Norman. He's the party secretary. 1853 01:36:01,920 --> 01:36:05,200 Speaker 2: And so Mariiameno and Lance are emailing back and forth, 1854 01:36:05,840 --> 01:36:08,719 Speaker 2: and in one of the and they're referencing a meeting 1855 01:36:08,840 --> 01:36:11,080 Speaker 2: which was held like a hue to try and calm 1856 01:36:11,200 --> 01:36:16,480 Speaker 2: things down, which involved the co letters JT and Mariameno 1857 01:36:16,520 --> 01:36:20,880 Speaker 2: CUPAKINGI right, and it's in reference to when JT called 1858 01:36:21,000 --> 01:36:25,280 Speaker 2: Mariameno's son, I said, I'm going to get utu on him. 1859 01:36:25,320 --> 01:36:28,320 Speaker 2: You know that's quite an offensive thing to say.

He made a 1863 01:36:38,280 --> 01:36:41,600 Speaker 2: statement about your Fano and you will recall that you 1864 01:36:41,840 --> 01:36:46,680 Speaker 2: called him an effing seaward. This is all in the documents, 1865 01:36:46,760 --> 01:36:50,280 Speaker 2: the court documents.
