Heather Duplicy on Drive with One New 3 00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:15,640 Speaker 1: Zealand Let's get connected, news talks that'd. 4 00:00:15,520 --> 00:00:20,360 Speaker 2: Be Hey, good afternoon, welcome to the show. Coming up today. 5 00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:22,720 Speaker 2: Willie Jackson on the death of the MP Tucka Tai 6 00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:25,599 Speaker 2: hash camp Overnight. New Zealand Rugby on what happened to 7 00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:27,920 Speaker 2: that Carpitty Hauter of Fenua game leading to the cancelation 8 00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:31,240 Speaker 2: of all their games here there this weekend? And is 9 00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:33,160 Speaker 2: it fair to have your paid doc for just working 10 00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:34,839 Speaker 2: to rule. We're going to speak to your union. 11 00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:36,960 Speaker 3: About that ever, Duplicy Ellen. 12 00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:40,400 Speaker 2: How disappointing is the revelation that Faro order money has 13 00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:42,920 Speaker 2: been used to fund them mo onea Pacific a rugby team. 14 00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:46,800 Speaker 2: How disappointing is that this is not a criticism of 15 00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:48,320 Speaker 2: the team. I mean, the team has been one of 16 00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:50,879 Speaker 2: the rock star stories of the Super Rugby season. This 17 00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:53,640 Speaker 2: is about the funding. This is the kind of revelation 18 00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:57,400 Speaker 2: I reckon that does huge damage to public confidence and 19 00:00:57,400 --> 00:01:00,160 Speaker 2: government use of taxpayer money, because this is money that, 20 00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:03,520 Speaker 2: to our minds, is supposed to be going to some 21 00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:06,800 Speaker 2: of the most vulnerable people. To helping MARI and Pacifica 22 00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 2: families with things like health, medical appointments, baby jabs, education, housing, 23 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:15,920 Speaker 2: that kind of thing. But instead we find out it's 24 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:19,000 Speaker 2: been going to fund a rugby team for elite athletes. 25 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:22,040 Speaker 2: This has been going on for at least two years. 26 00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:24,600 Speaker 2: One of the outfits that's contracted to spend Final Order 27 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:28,240 Speaker 2: funds Pacifica Medical Association Group We're going to call them PMA. 28 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:32,399 Speaker 2: PMA has been giving seven hundred and seventy thousand dollars 29 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:34,200 Speaker 2: a year to more one a Pacifica. Now, if they 30 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:35,920 Speaker 2: do it again this year, we haven't got the financials, 31 00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:37,280 Speaker 2: but if they do it again this year at the 32 00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:39,639 Speaker 2: same level, it will be total two point three million. 33 00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:43,320 Speaker 2: That's a lot of money. Now credit where credit is 34 00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 2: due credit to the new Fino Order Minister Tama Portucka 35 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:50,840 Speaker 2: or to his department, either of which appears to have 36 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 2: already stopped this in its tracks, taken the contract off PMA, 37 00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:56,680 Speaker 2: given it to a new outfit. That outfit has to 38 00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 2: abide by a much tighter set of measurements around the 39 00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 2: space into the money, and a bit more clarity about 40 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:04,800 Speaker 2: whether they are getting their bang for their buck when 41 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 2: they spend the dollars. But once again, even though it 42 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:10,080 Speaker 2: has been stopped and credit, we credits you once again 43 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:13,919 Speaker 2: though tax payer money has been wasted. And the lesson here, 44 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 2: if there is a lesson, is that it is absolutely 45 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:18,799 Speaker 2: fine to hand out tax payer money to a third party. 46 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:20,200 Speaker 2: But if you do that, they have got to be 47 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 2: rules and there has got to be supervision. Otherwise, money 48 00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:26,520 Speaker 2: that we all think is going to families who need 49 00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:28,920 Speaker 2: it could instead be propping up a rugby team. 50 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:30,919 Speaker 3: Ever do for ce Allen. 51 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:34,240 Speaker 2: Nine nine two is the text number there, and of 52 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 2: course standard text fees apply. Now it looks like the 53 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:39,359 Speaker 2: drug that made Oprah skinny is going to be available 54 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:41,800 Speaker 2: in New Zealand shortly put this in your diary first 55 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:46,360 Speaker 2: of July next Tuesday, we go V also known as ozempic, 56 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 2: as going to be available, but you will still need 57 00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:51,680 Speaker 2: a prescription from your doctor. Doctor Arna Spenson is the 58 00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:54,919 Speaker 2: vice president Medical Oceania at Novo Nordistic.

And these are the people 65 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:17,919 Speaker 4: who are living it overweight and obesity and in need 66 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 4: to be able to get to their healthy wait and 67 00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 4: maintain their healthy way. 68 00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 2: Okay, can I just just make sure that you are 69 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 2: confirming it's happening on Tuesday, because up to now we've 70 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:29,639 Speaker 2: had no official confirmation that I can see Syce Tuesday. 71 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:33,640 Speaker 4: So yeah, saying from first of July will be available. 72 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 2: Okay, how much is the cost? 73 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 5: Now? 74 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 4: The cost will be absolutely similar to what Saxander is 75 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 4: in New Zealand, so approximately five hundred dollars New Zealand 76 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 4: dollars of course, and that's how we pro get and. 77 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 2: That's for a month, is it? 78 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 6: Yes? 79 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 2: Okay, how much demand do you think there is going 80 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 2: to be in New Zealand? 81 00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:59,480 Speaker 4: Well, I won't be able to tell you how much demand, 82 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:02,720 Speaker 4: will I can tell you how many people in New 83 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:06,280 Speaker 4: Zealand lived in obesities. They set two point eight million 84 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 4: people or individuals living in obsity in overweight and also 85 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 4: we know that some of them one hundred and seventy 86 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:17,480 Speaker 4: thousands of people are also suffering from established Caldivascar disease. 87 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 4: So what would be the demand is difficult. The clinicians 88 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:24,840 Speaker 4: would need to see patients and decide on the eligy. 89 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,600 Speaker 2: I mean, of course it's one thing to need it, 90 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 2: it's another to be able to afford it. Is it 91 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,719 Speaker 2: publicly funded, it's. 92 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:36,360 Speaker 4: Not public as hundreds, yet it will be available to 93 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 4: you know, the patient can get the script from their clinicians. 94 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 4: We as a company, we are determined to work with 95 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 4: a government, a farmak then see whether we can get 96 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 4: that rainburst for those that are eligible yet not yet. 97 00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 2: Okay, So what of the criticism though that there are 98 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 2: people who legitimately need this, you know, to be able 99 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 2: to manage their diabetes rather than just get their skinny 100 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,680 Speaker 2: on and that they're going to they're going to potentially 101 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 2: lose out because everybody is going to try it to 102 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 2: get slim off it. What do you say to that. 103 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 4: This product with GOVI that's indicated for chronic rate management 104 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 4: is something that we have brought. It's effectivates management solution 105 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:24,719 Speaker 4: and also it's not just that it's also recommended to 106 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:28,800 Speaker 4: be used together with their lifestyle change reduced color, diet 107 00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:34,520 Speaker 4: and exercise as well. When we talk about diabetic patients, 108 00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 4: then diabetic patients have a different product that they should 109 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 4: be using for treatment. 110 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:41,799 Speaker 2: All right, Anna, thank you very much, really appreciate your times. 111 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:45,680 Speaker 2: Doctor Arna Spenson, who's the vice president Medical Oceania Novo Nordisk. 112 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 2: Now a bit of a shock overnight, of course to 113 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:52,559 Speaker 2: hear that Marti Party MP Tucker Ta tash KEMP has died. 114 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,840 Speaker 2: She was in Parliament yesterday. So this is why it's 115 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 2: particularly a shock. It's not like people had much of 116 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 2: a warning. I mean, she was known to be unaware 117 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 2: she was battling a kidney disease, but she was in 118 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 2: Parliament yesterday, flew up to Auckland last night for dialysis. 119 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 2: I'm assuming the dialysis was going to be today. She 120 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:11,839 Speaker 2: was on a waiting list for a replacement kidney, but 121 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:16,160 Speaker 2: then has passed away. This will lead to a by 122 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 2: election obviously in Palmacky Makoto, because she is an electorate 123 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 2: MP rather than a list MP. I imagine it will 124 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:24,919 Speaker 2: be a bit of a contest there between the Marty 125 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:28,719 Speaker 2: Party and Labor obviously because she only beat Pennie hen 126 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 2: at A by forty two votes at the last election, 127 00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:33,160 Speaker 2: so it was a tight run thing. We're going to 128 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 2: have a chat to Willie Jackson, who is very very 129 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:37,920 Speaker 2: keen to talk to us about this, not so much 130 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,160 Speaker 2: in his capacity as you know, the guy who could 131 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:42,360 Speaker 2: be leading the campaign against the Marty Party, but more 132 00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:44,599 Speaker 2: just as a friend, and we'll be having a chat 133 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:46,800 Speaker 2: to him after five o'clock. Right now, it's coming up 134 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:47,640 Speaker 2: fourteen past four. 135 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 1: It's the Heather D Pussy Allen Drive Full Show podcast 136 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:55,560 Speaker 1: on iHeartRadio powered by News Talk zeb. 137 00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 2: Darcy Watergrave sports talk hosters with me right now.

I 145 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 6: think it's a great idea. 146 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:24,600 Speaker 7: My big issue here is not that horror for Neure 147 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:30,120 Speaker 7: Company have to make this decision, not that college Rugby 148 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 7: Wellington backing it up and made some more moves. 149 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 6: My problem here is insid are run the game of 150 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:36,960 Speaker 6: this country, right, don't they? 151 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 2: Yes? 152 00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:38,120 Speaker 5: Their game? Right? 153 00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 2: Yes? 154 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 6: Okay, so tell me why company rugby, this little tiny 155 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:47,040 Speaker 6: PU right, why why are they doing this? Why did 156 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:49,680 Speaker 6: they have to do this? Why are they suddenly standing 157 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:51,720 Speaker 6: there going you know what, We're gonna draw a line 158 00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 6: because we believe this is wrong for our community, it's 159 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 6: wrong for a game. We're not putting up with it. 160 00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:01,239 Speaker 6: Where INSI are they seem to resolve it said thoughts 161 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 6: and prayers. Basically we support them. This is great. Now 162 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:07,200 Speaker 6: you lead the game. This is your job. This is 163 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 6: your role is to look after the grassroots of the game, 164 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:13,040 Speaker 6: because without that we don't have superstars. We need to 165 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 6: look after it. They need to roll and they need 166 00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 6: to issue edicts like this one. Okay, we're not putting 167 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 6: up with this anymore. This happens anywhere in the country, 168 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,400 Speaker 6: the whole PU. We shut their rugby down from the 169 00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 6: next weekend. And then suddenly there's a ground swell and 170 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:30,280 Speaker 6: mums and dads and people go, oh, this really is 171 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:33,199 Speaker 6: actually starting to effect us. So suddenly there are a 172 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 6: lot of people standing there going not on our watch 173 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 6: because at the moment, people are too afraid to do it. 174 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:40,440 Speaker 2: So you think that basically, if it gets taken off 175 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:43,200 Speaker 2: the people, the people will police the game. Themselves, I think. 176 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:47,520 Speaker 2: So now quick, okay, fair enough, do you understand that 177 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:50,560 Speaker 2: the altercation was, rather than being between the mums and 178 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 2: dads on the side of the field, was actually between 179 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 2: the reef and one of the coaches. 180 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:54,439 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's it. 181 00:08:54,960 --> 00:09:03,560 Speaker 6: There was from the sideline there amas and driven at 182 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:07,240 Speaker 6: the referee. There were issues with the team. So that 183 00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 6: is not parental driven. But what it is is they 184 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:14,840 Speaker 6: as a result, I think the overarching result when people 185 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 6: are with their teams and with their coaches saying we 186 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:24,839 Speaker 6: don't do this anymore, it's the pressure. We're not joining 187 00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 6: your clubs. 188 00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:29,000 Speaker 2: This is what has been has been said on our 189 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:30,520 Speaker 2: station today, and you tell me if this is what 190 00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:33,439 Speaker 2: you understand. What happened was that Mona College was leading 191 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 2: the game. You can clarify any of these points could 192 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:39,000 Speaker 2: be wrong, right, I wasn't there hard to believe you 193 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:42,360 Speaker 2: love your rugany that much? Okay, So Mona College was leading. 194 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:46,400 Speaker 2: The game went on, the crowd felt that the final 195 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 2: whis still should have been blown. It wasn't blown. In 196 00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:51,679 Speaker 2: that time, Carpeti College managed to score a try and 197 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:54,280 Speaker 2: because of that, that is why there was an altercation 198 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:58,680 Speaker 2: between the coach of the now losing team and the referee, 199 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 2: and there was apparently either a shovel or punch. 200 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 6: That's what I believe. How that got initiated. 201 00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:06,600 Speaker 2: Or don't know. You don't know who threw the shovel 202 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 2: to punch? 203 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:10,640 Speaker 6: No, or what contributed to that. You don't even have 204 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 6: a situation. My side, your side, the truth of three 205 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 6: sides to every story. What fired up to a degree? 206 00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:18,840 Speaker 6: Was it a referee's late decision that should have been 207 00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:21,239 Speaker 6: accepted by everybody because that's the nature of refereeing. 208 00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:22,560 Speaker 2: Yes, did the. 209 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,200 Speaker 6: Opposing coach or the players have a crack at the 210 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:29,480 Speaker 6: referee for what they thought was the incorrect decision? Did 211 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:34,679 Speaker 6: that crack cause the referee to crack back? Was it? 212 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,439 Speaker 6: Did they put them the bird or a full blown 213 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:38,320 Speaker 6: punch to the face. 214 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:39,560 Speaker 2: We don't know. 215 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:43,480 Speaker 6: Because we weren't there. But I think that when push 216 00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 6: comes to shove, the referees' decision is fair and final 217 00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 6: and if you don't like it, bad luck, wear it. 218 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:52,480 Speaker 2: Okay, thank you, Darcy.

You know, they fight like hell, you can't 260 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:52,040 Speaker 6: start up on let them fight for about two three minutes. 261 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:54,280 Speaker 8: Then it's easier to start up, and then Daddy have 262 00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:57,160 Speaker 8: sometimes you strong language school strong. 263 00:12:58,280 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 5: I have to use a certain word. 264 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,640 Speaker 2: I mean, it's pretty weird, Like it's pretty weird. Anybody 265 00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:05,040 Speaker 2: calling Donald Trump daddy. But it's really weird. The NATO 266 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:08,520 Speaker 2: boss doing it in his strange Dutch accent. This is 267 00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:09,839 Speaker 2: his explanation for it. 268 00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:12,400 Speaker 8: The daddy thing. I didn't call him daddy, but I said, 269 00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:17,040 Speaker 8: is that sometimes in Europe are here sometimes country saying 270 00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:20,200 Speaker 8: may Mark will the ust with us? And I said, 271 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:23,319 Speaker 8: this sounds a little bit like the small child asking 272 00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 8: his daddy, Hey, are you still staying with the family. 273 00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:27,920 Speaker 8: So in that sense, he was daddy, not that I 274 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:32,400 Speaker 8: was calling a President Trump daddy whatever. 275 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:38,640 Speaker 2: Mark. Anyway, now we're all because it's got weird. Did 276 00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:40,360 Speaker 2: it get weird for you? It got really weird for me. 277 00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:41,839 Speaker 2: The minute that came out of his mouth. I was like, 278 00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:44,640 Speaker 2: oh gosh, I didn't want to go there, but I 279 00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:47,079 Speaker 2: did anyway. So now he's going to have to live 280 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:49,680 Speaker 2: with that forever. Not only did he suck up something 281 00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 2: terribly in that text that he sent to Daddy, but 282 00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:53,760 Speaker 2: then he called daddy daddy in public and now we 283 00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:56,840 Speaker 2: all know it. Anyway, I'm getting a lot of texts. Look, 284 00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:59,320 Speaker 2: Mike talked about it today and I got a text 285 00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:01,880 Speaker 2: here again that Erica Stanford, one of the stars of 286 00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:04,800 Speaker 2: our current government, continues to enshine race based policies in 287 00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:09,360 Speaker 2: her new education curriculum update.

And I talked to him earlier today 292 00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:20,720 Speaker 2: and I said, okay, go on, then answer a couple 293 00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:22,240 Speaker 2: of questions for me. I just want to clarify these 294 00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 2: two things. And I said to him, can can you 295 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:26,360 Speaker 2: get back to me by four o'clock? And going on 296 00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:28,280 Speaker 2: at four and he said to me, oh, look, the 297 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:31,800 Speaker 2: ministers and blah blah in the state somewhere just landing. 298 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,800 Speaker 2: And I said, ask the private principle, ask the principal advisor. 299 00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:37,560 Speaker 2: And he said, oh, principal advisors also in the states. 300 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 2: I thought, well, that is unfair, so I said, okay, 301 00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:42,800 Speaker 2: you can have another hour. So they've gone until five o'clock. 302 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:46,880 Speaker 2: So at five o'clock I will have the final little 303 00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:49,560 Speaker 2: piece of the puzzle. And once I've got that information 304 00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 2: from the press secretary in Erica Stanford's office, I'm going 305 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:54,560 Speaker 2: to be able to explain to you what I understand 306 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 2: to be going on.

Like, literally none of us. 342 00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:45,440 Speaker 2: I looked at the thing yesterday and because I thought 343 00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:49,400 Speaker 2: it affected the train station closest to me. Apparently it doesn't. 344 00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:51,320 Speaker 2: But I kind of mapped out what a k would 345 00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:53,560 Speaker 2: be and I thought, well, dodged that by a couple 346 00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:56,320 Speaker 2: of streets. Thank good. You know we all do that, obviously, 347 00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:58,240 Speaker 2: we all are on nimbi's to some extent. Anyway, It's 348 00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 2: also been pointed out by the way that none of 349 00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:03,600 Speaker 2: what is happening in Auckland is happening to the eastern suburbs, right, 350 00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:06,440 Speaker 2: it's all the train stations closer to town is we're 351 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:09,040 Speaker 2: talking Mount Eiden, Mount out. But that kind of part, 352 00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:12,480 Speaker 2: you know, you know, none of this rebu era dulling, 353 00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:14,919 Speaker 2: none of that's getting affected, and that's just winding up 354 00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:17,680 Speaker 2: a certain constituency, as you can imagine. Anyway, we'll talk 355 00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:20,200 Speaker 2: to her after quarter past five. It's twenty three away 356 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 2: from five. 357 00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:24,359 Speaker 1: It's the world wires on news talks. They'd be drive. 358 00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:28,400 Speaker 2: Donald Trump says around's nuclear program has been set back 359 00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:29,359 Speaker 2: by decades. 360 00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:33,240 Speaker 5: If you look at Hiroshimo, if you look at Nagasaki, 361 00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 5: you know that ended a war too. 362 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:37,119 Speaker 6: This ended a war in a different way, but it 363 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:38,320 Speaker 6: was so devastating. 364 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:39,119 Speaker 5: Now. 365 00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:40,880 Speaker 2: Of course, he's saying this because of that early report 366 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 2: from yesterday that found the American strikes on the facilities 367 00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:46,479 Speaker 2: had only set a run back by months. US president 368 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 2: has had a busy day at the big NATO meeting 369 00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:50,720 Speaker 2: as well. Ser Kia Stama is there too. He's promised 370 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:52,439 Speaker 2: to lift the UK's defense spending. 371 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:55,399 Speaker 11: We have a commitment in our manifesto not to raise 372 00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:59,920 Speaker 11: taxes or working people and we will keep to that commitment. 373 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:02,919 Speaker 11: But it is right that I reiterate that the first 374 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:06,720 Speaker 11: duty of the Prime Minister is to keep the country safe. 375 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:10,520 Speaker 2: And finally, a pub in England has banned the local 376 00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:13,800 Speaker 2: Sunday League football team from its premises on Saturday nights. 377 00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:17,160 Speaker 2: The landlord of the King, William Inns, is Tunneley Athletic 378 00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:19,640 Speaker 2: are losing too many games because the players are too 379 00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:22,399 Speaker 2: often hungover from drinking in his establishment the night before, 380 00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:24,440 Speaker 2: and he says he's very happy for the players to 381 00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:26,600 Speaker 2: pop in for a drink, but only after the game. 382 00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:31,160 Speaker 1: International correspondence with ends in Eye Insurance Peace of Mind 383 00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:32,639 Speaker 1: for New Zealand business. 384 00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:36,640 Speaker 2: Murray Old Ozzie corresponds with us, Hello Nas afternoon, Heather. 385 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:40,480 Speaker 2: I mean, he says Monday, but Wednesday could be Friday. 386 00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:45,760 Speaker 5: You're talking about Justice Christopher Beale, who was the Supreme 387 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:50,480 Speaker 5: Court judge in Victoria, who was summing up and directing 388 00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:54,520 Speaker 5: the jury after thirty seven days, thirty seven days of 389 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 5: the Aaron Pattison triple murder trial. This is the deathcap 390 00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:00,880 Speaker 5: Mushroom Mama as that she's been called in some quarters 391 00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:04,200 Speaker 5: over here. The jury, according to Justice Biale, is set 392 00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:08,640 Speaker 5: to go out next week. He's been basically summarizing both sides, 393 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:14,040 Speaker 5: the prosecution and the defense. The overriding instruction to the jury, 394 00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:17,960 Speaker 5: as you might expect, if there's any set suggestion that 395 00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:23,320 Speaker 5: she's not guilty, they must quit, missus Patterson, because you know, 396 00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:27,639 Speaker 5: three counts of murder. He said, the prosecution has to 397 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:31,640 Speaker 5: reach beyond reasonable doubt. That's the threshold. And if that's 398 00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:36,640 Speaker 5: the jury's view, okay, she is guilty. Now he's as 399 00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:39,680 Speaker 5: you know, we've been through this before. He's looking at 400 00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:44,120 Speaker 5: allegations by the prosecution, the defense, the arguments that's put forward. 401 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:47,800 Speaker 5: For example, you know the dehydrator. I've never seen one. 402 00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:49,720 Speaker 5: I've never bought one. I've never known anyone who's ever 403 00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 5: used one. But she bought a brand new one, used it, 404 00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:55,800 Speaker 5: and then threw it away. Why did you do that? Well, 405 00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:59,840 Speaker 5: that's you know. The jury's in there. Here's the fascinating thing. 406 00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:03,239 Speaker 5: There are fourteen jurors. I didn't realize this until this 407 00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:05,800 Speaker 5: afternoon doing some prep because I knew I was talking 408 00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:09,679 Speaker 5: to you on Monday when the Justice Bill says, the 409 00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:12,920 Speaker 5: jury will go away and retire to consider the verdict. 410 00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:16,800 Speaker 5: Two jurors of the fourteen will be balloted out, and 411 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:20,840 Speaker 5: then the other dozen will be sequestered and they can't 412 00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:24,399 Speaker 5: get out of it until they reach a verdict. It 413 00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:27,280 Speaker 5: must be left, as I said about standard beyond reasonable 414 00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:30,320 Speaker 5: doubt to convict. Mss Patterson accepts that, yes, the meal 415 00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:33,879 Speaker 5: did contain those killer mushrooms, the death gap mushrooms, but 416 00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 5: she said she never ever intended to harm anyone. She 417 00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:40,880 Speaker 5: loved her family members who died. And well, I mean, 418 00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 5: as you say, thirty seven days in counting. But it's 419 00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 5: such a fascinating, absolutely fascinating case. 420 00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:49,080 Speaker 2: So what's up with the two that have been balloted out? 421 00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:51,960 Speaker 2: They like reserves, Yeah, exactly. 422 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:54,840 Speaker 5: I mean somebody might get sick. I mean, you know, 423 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 5: anything could happen. There could be a death in the family, 424 00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 5: pardon the pun. There could be any number of reasons 425 00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:02,160 Speaker 5: why you'd have to have one or two jurors pull out. 426 00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:04,880 Speaker 5: And don't forget thirty seven days. It's a very very 427 00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:05,520 Speaker 5: long trial. 428 00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:06,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, this is. 429 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:08,880 Speaker 5: Very anything could happen in that in. 430 00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:10,720 Speaker 2: That Yeah, you want to have a couple of no, 431 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:12,200 Speaker 2: but you want to have a couple of bench players 432 00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:14,080 Speaker 2: because I'll tell you what, after how long this has 433 00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:16,080 Speaker 2: been going on. Imagine if you had to abandon it 434 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:17,920 Speaker 2: for some because something went wrong with the jury. You 435 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:20,040 Speaker 2: know what, jury jury members sometimes get up all kinds 436 00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:22,320 Speaker 2: of funny things as well, right, So even if the 437 00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:24,280 Speaker 2: whole thing got thrown out because a couple of them 438 00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:25,440 Speaker 2: were up to something. 439 00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:28,320 Speaker 5: Don't don't put the don't put the marker on it, mate, 440 00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:29,040 Speaker 5: do not do that. 441 00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 2: What's up with the judge though, Like, what is the 442 00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:32,879 Speaker 2: judge doing? 443 00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:36,520 Speaker 5: Well, you know what, I've never studied lawa liver died 444 00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:38,960 Speaker 5: law at university, but I think what I mean, this 445 00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:41,240 Speaker 5: is such an important case. It's such a long case. 446 00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:43,640 Speaker 5: There's so much riding on this. He does not want 447 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:49,120 Speaker 5: to discharge the jury back to their you know, said 448 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:51,760 Speaker 5: the jury out and then have any points of law 449 00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,280 Speaker 5: that may be picked up by the defense saying, well 450 00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 5: the judge. 451 00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:56,680 Speaker 2: Erd here, I see. 452 00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:59,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, you know he has to cross every t dot, 453 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:01,919 Speaker 5: every eye and you know, you don't get to be 454 00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:03,919 Speaker 5: on the Supreme Court by being a dummy. They are 455 00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:08,200 Speaker 5: very very experienced jurists, and you know the King's Council, 456 00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:11,840 Speaker 5: who are now prosecuting and defending that expert on their fields. 457 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:15,240 Speaker 5: You've got to have everything absolutely schmick and so I 458 00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:17,119 Speaker 5: think that's why it's been so darn long. 459 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:20,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's fascinating. I'm really hoping that I'm really hoping 460 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:23,720 Speaker 2: that it's nothing. Fingers cross, fingers cross, knock on, knock 461 00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:25,880 Speaker 2: on wood. We'll get an answer to this one. Hey, 462 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:27,159 Speaker 2: what's happened with the ABC? 463 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:31,960 Speaker 5: Well, the ABC heerd a big time a young woman 464 00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:36,120 Speaker 5: called Antoinette Latooth. She's of Lebanese extraction mom and dad. 465 00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:41,760 Speaker 5: I think mam and dad. Certainly her antecedents come from Lebanon. 466 00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 5: She's obviously an Australian and she was hired for a 467 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:49,160 Speaker 5: one week Christmas shift on ABC Radio and Sydney. Now. 468 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:53,240 Speaker 5: She got sacked on the Wednesday after she posted a 469 00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:58,480 Speaker 5: news story from the Human Rights Organization that said, basically, 470 00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:02,639 Speaker 5: Israel was used in starvation as a weapon of war 471 00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:06,520 Speaker 5: in the war on Gaza. Right now, that information had 472 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:10,760 Speaker 5: already been reported by ABC Radio News I think television 473 00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:13,560 Speaker 5: news as well, So you wouldn't think it was all 474 00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:16,560 Speaker 5: that controversial that she would simply repost an allegation that 475 00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:20,000 Speaker 5: had already been on the ABC. The judge in the 476 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:23,560 Speaker 5: Federal Court found the ABC management panicked. They went into 477 00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 5: a total panic and they gave it a flick on 478 00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:31,080 Speaker 5: the Wednesday afternoon because pro Jewish lobby groups, pro israel 479 00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:36,439 Speaker 5: lobbyists in Sydney were on We're onto the management of 480 00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:38,719 Speaker 5: the ABC saying how can you let this woman, how 481 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:41,480 Speaker 5: can you let this presenter put these anti Israeli views 482 00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:44,320 Speaker 5: to air. So ABC manager's gone to a tail spend, 483 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:47,520 Speaker 5: sent out the junior managers who have given her the pump, 484 00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:50,159 Speaker 5: shown to the door. She's gone, well, she said, hang 485 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:52,399 Speaker 5: on a second. No, I'm not going to cop that. 486 00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:56,600 Speaker 5: She went to the where did she go here? I'm 487 00:23:56,600 --> 00:24:01,119 Speaker 5: just looking here in my notes. She went the relevant 488 00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:07,000 Speaker 5: judicial authority and said, listen, I've been unfairly dismissed. And 489 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:11,400 Speaker 5: the Federal Court has upheld that. Not because a part 490 00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:14,479 Speaker 5: of her argument was I'm the Middle Eastern distraction and 491 00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:17,800 Speaker 5: the ABC management sacked me because of that. No, absolutely not, 492 00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:22,479 Speaker 5: said the Federal Court judge. But he did find it 493 00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 5: was completely unfair of the ABC to sack this woman 494 00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:29,480 Speaker 5: without giving her a chance to respond to the misconduct allegations. 495 00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:33,880 Speaker 5: The executives bowed the judge to outside pressures from pro 496 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:37,399 Speaker 5: Israel lobbyists, she went to the Human Rights that Human 497 00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:40,960 Speaker 5: Rights Watts report had already been to wear of the ABC. 498 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 5: It wasn't that she was making this stuff up. So, 499 00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:47,280 Speaker 5: I mean, what a disaster. You've got these junior managers 500 00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:49,480 Speaker 5: sent out by the big brass. Oh, you've got to 501 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:51,920 Speaker 5: get rid of her. It's only a pre Christmas shift, 502 00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:54,399 Speaker 5: it's a fill in shift. Well now they offered the 503 00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:57,560 Speaker 5: settle for eighty five k right. Oh yeah, Now they've 504 00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:00,320 Speaker 5: in order to pay seventy thousand dollars in damages and 505 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:03,119 Speaker 5: the possibility of punitive damages on top of that, and 506 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:05,800 Speaker 5: the ABC's defense has cost more than one point one 507 00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:08,439 Speaker 5: million dollars for the ABC to lose. 508 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:13,720 Speaker 2: Shesh. You could hire like twenty journo's for that. That 509 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:19,080 Speaker 2: is ridiculous, talk about talk about talk about stupidity. Hey, 510 00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:22,720 Speaker 2: thank you for that, Mars appreciated Murray Old's Australia correspondent. Honestly, 511 00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:26,920 Speaker 2: the money that people throw at just winning a battle stupid. Hey, 512 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:31,040 Speaker 2: Wellington thought some prayers. Another massive rates hike just been 513 00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:34,240 Speaker 2: confirmed today. Twelve percent for Wellington. Twelve percent is a 514 00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 2: reprieve This is not even news. In Wellington. Come at 515 00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:38,680 Speaker 2: them with a twenty then you're talking. But twelve percent 516 00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:40,159 Speaker 2: the rest of us. I mean, I don't know. In Auckland, 517 00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:44,040 Speaker 2: we're looking at twelve percent, going oh okay, that is 518 00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:47,720 Speaker 2: probably they've got Stockholm syndrome. Yeah, they say twelve percent. 519 00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:50,760 Speaker 2: And also I think I think the worst bit about 520 00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:54,680 Speaker 2: the twelve percent is that is that they only found 521 00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:56,760 Speaker 2: out a few days ago what happened to the last 522 00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:58,960 Speaker 2: lot of money that they gave the council, which was, yes, 523 00:25:59,160 --> 00:25:59,960 Speaker 2: the disco toilet. 524 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:03,880 Speaker 1: It's accord to politics with centric credit, check your customers 525 00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:04,919 Speaker 1: and get payments, certainty. 526 00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:07,000 Speaker 2: Thomas Coglan, the Herald's political editors with us. 527 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:08,520 Speaker 12: Hey, Thomas, good afternoon. 528 00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:10,640 Speaker 2: Did you see taku Ta taj Kemp yesterday? 529 00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:11,360 Speaker 4: Yeah? 530 00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:11,560 Speaker 5: Did? 531 00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:14,399 Speaker 12: She was in the debating chamber. She looked perfectly healthy 532 00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:16,760 Speaker 12: and normal. It was a shocked to me, just like 533 00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:18,280 Speaker 12: it was the shock to everyone in parliament. 534 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:20,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, and so do we know what happened last overnight? 535 00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:24,040 Speaker 12: I know that the departing Malory have understandably that they 536 00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:28,119 Speaker 12: were in Parliament this morning, but they were not at 537 00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:31,320 Speaker 12: question time. All it would appear headed back up to 538 00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:36,119 Speaker 12: Auckland to prepare for Kemp's tonguey. So we haven't had 539 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:40,359 Speaker 12: any detailed media explanation of what has gone on here. 540 00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:44,800 Speaker 12: Kemp was did have kidney disease, she was known to 541 00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:47,639 Speaker 12: She took six weeks off last year for kidney disease, 542 00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:49,680 Speaker 12: so she was known to have that. So I think 543 00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 12: there's a there's a there's a fear indication that it 544 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:54,439 Speaker 12: might have been related to complications with that. But but 545 00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:55,280 Speaker 12: we honestly don't know. 546 00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:58,520 Speaker 2: And so I saw that the Labor Party held a 547 00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:01,120 Speaker 2: stand up press conference about this, but I haven't seen 548 00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:03,440 Speaker 2: that the Marta Party. Have they not done done one yet? 549 00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:06,600 Speaker 12: No, no, nothing nothing from them today. There are their 550 00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:09,919 Speaker 12: MP's were in parliament today. The suspensions lifted on the 551 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:12,639 Speaker 12: CO leaders last night, So the suspensions lifted as of 552 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:15,439 Speaker 12: midnight last night, so they could have all And I 553 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:17,440 Speaker 12: guess that's one of the sad parts of this is 554 00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:20,280 Speaker 12: actually the last time that the entire caucus would have 555 00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:23,160 Speaker 12: been present under the debating chamber was was the day 556 00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:27,240 Speaker 12: that that the CO leaders were censured, we're sorry, suspended 557 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:31,120 Speaker 12: from parliament with what related to relating to that haka. 558 00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:34,399 Speaker 12: But no everyone and everyone left the Greens put some 559 00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:38,600 Speaker 12: flowers on Kemp's desk in Parliament. There was a Maori 560 00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:41,480 Speaker 12: Party flag on her chair. But but Malori partty of 561 00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:43,960 Speaker 12: the MPs have have decided not to not to be 562 00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:48,320 Speaker 12: in Wellington for today. Obviously there there might be more 563 00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:51,880 Speaker 12: tributes paid a bit like with Offesso Collins. We don't 564 00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:55,040 Speaker 12: have eyes on that yet with Offesso Collins, who were 565 00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:58,840 Speaker 12: tributes paid after when Parliament returned, so we might at 566 00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:00,040 Speaker 12: that time in the instance to. 567 00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:03,000 Speaker 2: Okay Thomas, what is the warning from Treasury? Never is 568 00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:03,440 Speaker 2: a good thing? 569 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:03,800 Speaker 6: Is it? 570 00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:07,119 Speaker 12: Never a good thing with treasury? Treasury delivers a warning 571 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:09,600 Speaker 12: like this. Look, they've just said that the government is 572 00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:13,159 Speaker 12: the government, I suppose is trying to take the least 573 00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:16,919 Speaker 12: difficult path back to suplus, which is just to increase 574 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:19,399 Speaker 12: spending every year, but not increase it by very much 575 00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:21,640 Speaker 12: and so slowly the books get back into water. It's 576 00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:25,080 Speaker 12: not painful cuts like the Ruth Richardson years. It's not 577 00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:28,680 Speaker 12: a lot of spending like the last Labor government. It's 578 00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:31,760 Speaker 12: increasing spending but not too much. Treasury is just sort 579 00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:34,040 Speaker 12: of looked at those numbers and said, well, look if 580 00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:36,000 Speaker 12: you did that over the next fifteen or so years. 581 00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:38,760 Speaker 12: What would that do? And basically that would open up 582 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:41,320 Speaker 12: a very large hole between about ten million dollars in 583 00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:44,280 Speaker 12: today's money between what they think the health system needs 584 00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:47,200 Speaker 12: and what it would be likely to get. And so 585 00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:49,560 Speaker 12: the big question that Treasury is basically asking, which is 586 00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:51,880 Speaker 12: the same question that Treasury is always asking, is what 587 00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:54,320 Speaker 12: are you going to do about superinnuation entitlement? So you're 588 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:56,080 Speaker 12: going to lift the age to sixty seven to save 589 00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:58,120 Speaker 12: some money or are you going to have to start 590 00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:00,440 Speaker 12: looking at tools like a capital gains tax to raise 591 00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:03,600 Speaker 12: that money? The same question they always ask. The answers 592 00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:05,120 Speaker 12: always know, uh huh. 593 00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:07,720 Speaker 2: And do you think do you think that National is 594 00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:10,800 Speaker 2: going to campaign on sixty seven? I? 595 00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 12: Yes, I feel like I feel like there's a probably 596 00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:16,719 Speaker 12: sixty percent chance of there. Obviously, with Winston in the picture, 597 00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:18,120 Speaker 12: it ain't going to happen. 598 00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:22,520 Speaker 2: Was pretty clear, should they because it is unpopular, it 599 00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:25,200 Speaker 2: remains unpopular, and this is going to be a tight election. 600 00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:29,320 Speaker 12: Well, yeah, if I were in the National you're damned 601 00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:30,920 Speaker 12: if you do, damned if you don't. Because if you're 602 00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:32,880 Speaker 12: if you're in the National Party strategy team right now, 603 00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 12: you're thinking, well, if we do campaign on sixty seven, 604 00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 12: we might be the first one term national government in history. 605 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:40,480 Speaker 2: Because you're right, and why are you damned if you 606 00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:42,160 Speaker 2: don't campaign on sixty seven. 607 00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:44,120 Speaker 12: Well, if you don't campaign and it, then you've got 608 00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:46,800 Speaker 12: another three years where you've got to do even tight 609 00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:49,600 Speaker 12: You've got to keep making quite tight cuts. 610 00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:52,760 Speaker 2: You've got to do the difficult but necessary thing. 611 00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:55,920 Speaker 12: Yeah, I keep it. If you keep it at sixty five, 612 00:29:56,360 --> 00:29:58,000 Speaker 12: then all of a sudden you're going to say, well, 613 00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:00,320 Speaker 12: look we'll keep it at sixty five. But in order 614 00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:02,640 Speaker 12: to pay for that, we can't increase the health budget 615 00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:04,360 Speaker 12: by as much would like, or we can't increase the 616 00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:06,320 Speaker 12: education budget by as much, or. 617 00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:08,720 Speaker 2: You could just cut into stuff that's unnecessary, for example, 618 00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:10,440 Speaker 2: get rid of the Infrastructure Commission. 619 00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:12,200 Speaker 13: Yeah. 620 00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:14,080 Speaker 12: I like the way you singled that one out. 621 00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:17,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, and today I'm going in for a second bite 622 00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:19,440 Speaker 2: on that one actually, But you know what I mean, 623 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:22,200 Speaker 2: there are My point is, Thomas, there are lots of action. 624 00:30:22,360 --> 00:30:24,360 Speaker 2: There are there are lots of decisions that can be taken, 625 00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:26,400 Speaker 2: and lots of little cuts that can add to a 626 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:26,840 Speaker 2: big cut. 627 00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:29,480 Speaker 12: Right, Yeah, Well, and yeah, I mean and to that point, 628 00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:31,920 Speaker 12: the X Party when it was in opposition did a 629 00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:33,160 Speaker 12: bit a bit like what the Greens are doing with 630 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:36,240 Speaker 12: their draft budgets, although the ex party draft budgets were 631 00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 12: very different of the Green Party draft budgets. They'd publish 632 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:40,600 Speaker 12: draft budgets and I basically say, right, we think this 633 00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:42,560 Speaker 12: is rubbish. This is rubbish, this is rubbish. They gone, 634 00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:44,600 Speaker 12: here's how much, would say, and here's where we'd spend it. 635 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:47,680 Speaker 12: So yes, you could. You could free up significant amounts 636 00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:48,640 Speaker 12: of money as well. 637 00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:50,680 Speaker 2: Thomas, thanks very much, appreciate it, mate, Thomas Coglan, the 638 00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:53,520 Speaker 2: Herald's political editor, putting. 639 00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:56,720 Speaker 1: The tough questions to the newspeakers, the mic asking breakfast. 640 00:30:56,880 --> 00:30:57,560 Speaker 5: So here we go again. 641 00:30:57,640 --> 00:30:59,800 Speaker 14: The Finance Minister's written this morning another letter to the 642 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:02,200 Speaker 14: for Market's food Stuffs has pled guilty as I'm sure 643 00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:04,280 Speaker 14: you're aware of a couple of breaches of inaccurate pricing. 644 00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:07,120 Speaker 14: Wolworths is facing apparently similar charges Nicola Willis as well, 645 00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:09,680 Speaker 14: as are you, the Finance minister who cried wolf. 646 00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:13,400 Speaker 15: No, I have the same basic expectation that every key 647 00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:16,680 Speaker 15: shopper has, which is some pretty basic things you have 648 00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:18,640 Speaker 15: to do under the law as a retailer. One is 649 00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:20,920 Speaker 15: make sure that the prices that you say on the 650 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:23,120 Speaker 15: shelf are the prices that pay at the till. And 651 00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:26,040 Speaker 15: the fact that they are pleading guilty to not meeting, 652 00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:29,000 Speaker 15: there's pricing obligations and me just isn't good enough and 653 00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:30,080 Speaker 15: I shouldn't have to point out. 654 00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:33,160 Speaker 14: Make back tomorrow at six am the Mike Hosking Breakfast 655 00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:35,560 Speaker 14: with the Defender Octor News Talk z B. 656 00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:38,480 Speaker 2: Heather, it's all good for the judge on his fat 657 00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:40,360 Speaker 2: salary to drag the trial to its eighth week, but 658 00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:43,640 Speaker 2: Spira thought for the poor juras Hey. Actually interesting point 659 00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:45,960 Speaker 2: on that. In Victoria, which is where this is being held, 660 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:48,840 Speaker 2: this is the mushroom chef trial. They get paid forty 661 00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:50,720 Speaker 2: dollars a week a day for the first week, and 662 00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:54,240 Speaker 2: then eighty dollars a day for the second week and thereafter. 663 00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:57,080 Speaker 2: But and this is the important and very different to 664 00:31:57,120 --> 00:32:00,880 Speaker 2: New Zealand b. But the employer in Victoria is then 665 00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:03,760 Speaker 2: expected to top up their pay to buy the looks 666 00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:07,520 Speaker 2: of things maximum full them ount on pay for the duration. 667 00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:09,840 Speaker 2: So if you want to feel sorry for anybody, feel 668 00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:12,680 Speaker 2: sorry for the employers who for eight weeks have not 669 00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:15,320 Speaker 2: had employees but have still paid them. Basically, the top up. 670 00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:19,080 Speaker 2: It's like maternity leave. It's like a very short maternity leave, 671 00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:20,920 Speaker 2: isn't it.

Parliament come together 737 00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:33,719 Speaker 16: pretty well.

But if you can't 741 00:35:43,640 --> 00:35:47,240 Speaker 16: come together for something like that, I suppose we're all that's. 742 00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:49,359 Speaker 2: Right, Well, we're all Keywi's in the end. Now, Look, 743 00:35:49,880 --> 00:35:52,040 Speaker 2: I mean it might be premature me asking this, and 744 00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:54,360 Speaker 2: so I'm sorry because it is slightly callous. But obviously 745 00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:56,360 Speaker 2: there will be a by election at some stage. Have 746 00:35:56,440 --> 00:35:58,160 Speaker 2: you turned your mind to it or is it too early. 747 00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:02,279 Speaker 16: I we'll tell you the truth. We haven't even you know, 748 00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:05,120 Speaker 16: like it just you know, Penny hen Nady obviously is 749 00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:10,240 Speaker 16: the candidate and he you know, he's taking it really badly. 750 00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:13,239 Speaker 16: You know, those people have getting a bit shocked by there, 751 00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:15,600 Speaker 16: because some people would have would say he was done 752 00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:17,560 Speaker 16: out of the money they will see, but you know 753 00:36:17,640 --> 00:36:20,640 Speaker 16: he's saw tasked like a sister. It's maldi politicians for 754 00:36:20,719 --> 00:36:23,280 Speaker 16: you sometimes, you know, as I said in the house, 755 00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:25,320 Speaker 16: you know he had a bit of a tongue, a 756 00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:27,080 Speaker 16: bit of a bit of a bit of a cry, 757 00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:30,200 Speaker 16: you might, and these are genuine tears, you know. And 758 00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:33,560 Speaker 16: when we did a press court conference earlier today and 759 00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:37,240 Speaker 16: even in the house, we haven't to tell you the truth. 760 00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:39,440 Speaker 16: We haven't turned our mind to it. We're going to 761 00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:41,600 Speaker 16: go to the Tonguey she's going to be a twenty 762 00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:43,960 Speaker 16: white team and then she'll be going down to Tai 763 00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:46,520 Speaker 16: happ Air to be buried over the weekend. So it's 764 00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:48,520 Speaker 16: going to be a long few days and we'll turn 765 00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:50,640 Speaker 16: our mind to it next week. And don't mind having 766 00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:53,600 Speaker 16: a bit of a chat with you probably you know 767 00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:56,680 Speaker 16: as we get into it, but it's not something that 768 00:36:56,719 --> 00:36:59,120 Speaker 16: we probably should be talking about at the moment. 769 00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:01,680 Speaker 2: All right, Well, let's thanks very much appreciated. Go well, 770 00:37:02,120 --> 00:37:03,520 Speaker 2: Willie Jackson, Labor Party. 771 00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:05,280 Speaker 3: MP Keller du for C Allen. 772 00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:05,680 Speaker 5: Right. 773 00:37:05,680 --> 00:37:08,920 Speaker 2: It's been revealed today that Farno Order funds have been 774 00:37:09,040 --> 00:37:11,520 Speaker 2: used to prop up the more Wana Pacifica Super rugby team. 775 00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:14,680 Speaker 2: Now the money went from the government to pacifica Medical 776 00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:17,200 Speaker 2: Association Group, which is a charity that's commissioned to spend 777 00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:20,160 Speaker 2: Faro Order funds and from them was given to the 778 00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:22,879 Speaker 2: rugby team. Kate McNamara is the Herald journalist who helped 779 00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:25,279 Speaker 2: break the story with us. Now Hi Kate, hi hether. 780 00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:27,960 Speaker 2: So we're talking about about one point five million dollars, 781 00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:30,080 Speaker 2: maybe up to as much as two point three million dollars. 782 00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:33,000 Speaker 2: Was that all public money? 783 00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:38,279 Speaker 10: Certainly one point five was public money. It's not clear. 784 00:37:38,320 --> 00:37:41,040 Speaker 10: There's another six hundred thousand that came in the year 785 00:37:41,120 --> 00:37:44,399 Speaker 10: twenty twenty one twenty twenty two. It's not absolutely clear 786 00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:47,399 Speaker 10: that that was public money. It's probably public money, but 787 00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:53,160 Speaker 10: I haven't the PMA hasn't confirmed that that came from 788 00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:56,879 Speaker 10: the fano Ora contract. It came from Pacifica Futures, which 789 00:37:56,920 --> 00:38:03,880 Speaker 10: is the Pacifica commissioning agency to Puny Corkrey. But and 790 00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:07,480 Speaker 10: it may be that all of their funding comes from 791 00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:09,680 Speaker 10: the fano Aura contract, but it may be that there's 792 00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:12,520 Speaker 10: a small amount of funding from another sport in there. 793 00:38:12,560 --> 00:38:15,080 Speaker 2: So we know not, we know at least some and 794 00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:17,680 Speaker 2: it seems like a sizeable chunk is public money. Is 795 00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:20,279 Speaker 2: it appropriate to use public money that are supposed to 796 00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:24,440 Speaker 2: be going for far no order projects, which is jabbing babies, healthcare, 797 00:38:24,480 --> 00:38:26,160 Speaker 2: that kind of thing to a rugby team. 798 00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:30,759 Speaker 10: Well, so the is it allowed is probably the first 799 00:38:30,840 --> 00:38:34,120 Speaker 10: question you might ask. And it may well be allowed. 800 00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:39,440 Speaker 10: Now whether or not that's a good idea, you know, 801 00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:42,480 Speaker 10: if you ask me, do I personally think it's a 802 00:38:42,520 --> 00:38:44,279 Speaker 10: good idea. I think it would be tough to make 803 00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:49,160 Speaker 10: it stack up. Would exactions in babies, yeah. 804 00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:51,439 Speaker 2: Right, yeah so so, but would it be allowed because 805 00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:55,279 Speaker 2: it would feed into bolstering the culture which is one 806 00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:57,239 Speaker 2: of the things that Varno order is supposed. 807 00:38:56,920 --> 00:39:00,640 Speaker 10: To do bingo so strengthening cultural identity. And I mean 808 00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:03,319 Speaker 10: that's as elastic as you want it to be. Right, 809 00:39:03,400 --> 00:39:04,960 Speaker 10: you could pay me to go down the pub on 810 00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:06,840 Speaker 10: swer Patrick's day. 811 00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:09,160 Speaker 2: Really, yes, I see, I take your point. It's a 812 00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:11,920 Speaker 2: fair point. Now there are three people who sit on 813 00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:13,719 Speaker 2: both boards, right. They sit on the boat on the 814 00:39:13,880 --> 00:39:15,959 Speaker 2: Wana PACIFICA board, which is the rugby team that gets 815 00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:18,560 Speaker 2: the money, and they sit on the Pacifica Medical Association 816 00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:21,520 Speaker 2: Group board, which is the outfit that gives the rugby 817 00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:23,120 Speaker 2: team the money. Is that not a conflict? 818 00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:28,960 Speaker 10: They're related parties, so yes, and you know it's it's 819 00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:33,680 Speaker 10: self dealing if you want. And they say, the chair 820 00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:38,319 Speaker 10: of Pacifica Medical Association tells me that they followed their 821 00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:42,560 Speaker 10: protocols to mitigate this conflict. 822 00:39:42,680 --> 00:39:43,000 Speaker 16: And so. 823 00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:50,239 Speaker 10: The conflicted decision makers weren't involved in essentially okaying the 824 00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:57,520 Speaker 10: wouldn't have been involved in okaying the fan or funding decision. Now, 825 00:39:57,560 --> 00:39:59,879 Speaker 10: they weren't that exact. They just set out what they're 826 00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:03,080 Speaker 10: protocols were and that these would have applied. 827 00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:05,960 Speaker 2: Okay, and I note that this group has now lost 828 00:40:06,040 --> 00:40:08,359 Speaker 2: the contract. It's been given to somebody else and there 829 00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:11,080 Speaker 2: are much stricter rules. Is that because of this, because 830 00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:12,359 Speaker 2: of the funding of the rugby team. 831 00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:16,200 Speaker 10: Yes, I would point out that this contract was renewed 832 00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:20,560 Speaker 10: for twelve months last year under the current government. So 833 00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:25,279 Speaker 10: you know, if you want to blame someone, yeah, you 834 00:40:25,360 --> 00:40:28,040 Speaker 10: can probably spread it around a little bit. I do 835 00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:30,560 Speaker 10: think that the current government has been looking at this 836 00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:33,880 Speaker 10: and they've changed a number of things. They've tightened. It 837 00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:35,520 Speaker 10: took them a while to do it, and in the 838 00:40:35,560 --> 00:40:40,120 Speaker 10: meantime they rolled the contract over for twelve months. They 839 00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:47,239 Speaker 10: have more measurement requirements of outcomes now in place for 840 00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:52,480 Speaker 10: the upcoming contract starts July first, and you're not allowed 841 00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:57,480 Speaker 10: to so you, the commissioning agency, are not allowed to 842 00:40:57,560 --> 00:41:00,920 Speaker 10: buy essentially buy your own services. And so that actually 843 00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:01,680 Speaker 10: would be a big. 844 00:41:01,640 --> 00:41:05,120 Speaker 2: Change right looking at yeah, which might tidy this kind 845 00:41:05,120 --> 00:41:07,560 Speaker 2: of thing up.

Did it take you by surprise? 879 00:42:40,239 --> 00:42:43,440 Speaker 17: I have to say it was a bit shocking and 880 00:42:43,680 --> 00:42:47,640 Speaker 17: a bit confronting, just the level of intenseication. I mean, 881 00:42:47,640 --> 00:42:51,399 Speaker 17: we all think that intensification is important, especially around these 882 00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:54,839 Speaker 17: transport hubs, and especially around the huge investment they've made 883 00:42:54,920 --> 00:43:00,200 Speaker 17: into the city rail link. However, I just think the 884 00:43:00,239 --> 00:43:03,120 Speaker 17: intensity it feels a bit blunt and it feels a 885 00:43:03,120 --> 00:43:04,400 Speaker 17: bit too quick. 886 00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:07,400 Speaker 2: What's a better way do you think of doing it? 887 00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:11,759 Speaker 17: I'll look, I think they should really be going through 888 00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:15,160 Speaker 17: the normal planning process so that people a can get 889 00:43:15,600 --> 00:43:18,960 Speaker 17: a chance to understand what is actually been proposed and 890 00:43:19,120 --> 00:43:22,560 Speaker 17: is going to happen in the area, and that they 891 00:43:22,600 --> 00:43:26,320 Speaker 17: get a chance to be heard. I think under this process, 892 00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:28,799 Speaker 17: I really get the impression. And I don't know for 893 00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:30,680 Speaker 17: a fact, but I think it's going to be very 894 00:43:30,719 --> 00:43:35,759 Speaker 17: hard for the community to have a meaningful impact in 895 00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:37,240 Speaker 17: being who. 896 00:43:37,239 --> 00:43:39,799 Speaker 2: But Kendall isn't the point of not going through the 897 00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:42,680 Speaker 2: usual planning process that the usual planning process is a 898 00:43:42,719 --> 00:43:45,200 Speaker 2: problem and it doesn't allow anything really to happen. 899 00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:51,080 Speaker 17: I'll look, I look. I agree that there is sometimes 900 00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:53,840 Speaker 17: red tape for red tape's sake, but if you don't 901 00:43:53,880 --> 00:43:57,759 Speaker 17: allow like forcing something onto a community will never get 902 00:43:57,800 --> 00:44:01,800 Speaker 17: you great community outcome, won't actually allow you to plan. 903 00:44:02,440 --> 00:44:06,759 Speaker 17: It's going to be so imposing in an area that 904 00:44:06,840 --> 00:44:11,399 Speaker 17: has this amazing heritage, and all of a sudden it's 905 00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:13,560 Speaker 17: going to have fifteen stories high. 906 00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:15,520 Speaker 2: Are you guys going to fight at Kendall, because it 907 00:44:15,560 --> 00:44:18,160 Speaker 2: feels to me like this is very fightable. 908 00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:20,040 Speaker 5: Yeah. 909 00:44:20,040 --> 00:44:23,200 Speaker 17: Well, look, I only speak on behalf of myself. I 910 00:44:23,239 --> 00:44:25,640 Speaker 17: hadn't spoken to the whole of the local board about this, 911 00:44:25,880 --> 00:44:28,760 Speaker 17: and there will be various views on the local board. 912 00:44:28,760 --> 00:44:31,000 Speaker 17: There will be some of my members that absolutely love it. 913 00:44:31,080 --> 00:44:33,560 Speaker 17: They love a good bit of public transport out a 914 00:44:33,600 --> 00:44:36,520 Speaker 17: bit of which we all do. But there will be 915 00:44:36,560 --> 00:44:39,440 Speaker 17: some people who will be I live in a heritage area, 916 00:44:39,480 --> 00:44:43,400 Speaker 17: a special character area, and that I really value. And 917 00:44:43,680 --> 00:44:46,759 Speaker 17: the most of the people who live probably in Mount 918 00:44:46,960 --> 00:44:51,560 Speaker 17: Eden and Epsom and Mount Albert and Kingsland, have chosen 919 00:44:51,880 --> 00:44:56,000 Speaker 17: those areas because it's a special character and the heritage 920 00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:59,040 Speaker 17: that they love about it. And so to be told 921 00:44:59,080 --> 00:45:03,280 Speaker 17: overnight that you might have a fifteen story block beside 922 00:45:03,280 --> 00:45:07,000 Speaker 17: you is very unpalatable because you see, is a financial 923 00:45:07,239 --> 00:45:10,160 Speaker 17: element of it, which these are people's homes, which is 924 00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:14,560 Speaker 17: usually people's biggest impigments. But it's their community in their 925 00:45:14,680 --> 00:45:19,360 Speaker 17: home that's going to change like drastically to right concident. 926 00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:21,160 Speaker 2: We will have to live with there. I really appreciate it. 927 00:45:21,320 --> 00:45:23,200 Speaker 2: I really appreciate your time.

Now, hey, listen. Next 939 00:45:58,880 --> 00:46:02,200 Speaker 2: time someone suggests setting up a new government agency for 940 00:46:02,360 --> 00:46:04,719 Speaker 2: anything anything on earth, next time goes, I know what 941 00:46:04,760 --> 00:46:07,320 Speaker 2: we need.

We never need to set up one 944 00:46:12,719 --> 00:46:15,960 Speaker 2: more government agency for anything at all. We have got, 945 00:46:16,080 --> 00:46:18,440 Speaker 2: as we know, an infrastructure problem. We know that we 946 00:46:18,480 --> 00:46:20,319 Speaker 2: do right. We look around. Our roads are pothold, we 947 00:46:20,320 --> 00:46:22,600 Speaker 2: don't have fast public transport. We keep talking about but 948 00:46:22,640 --> 00:46:25,160 Speaker 2: never building another harbor crossing for Auckland. We plan a 949 00:46:25,160 --> 00:46:27,880 Speaker 2: new hospital for Dunedin, and then we scrap those plans, 950 00:46:27,920 --> 00:46:29,719 Speaker 2: and on and on it goes. So what we did 951 00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:32,640 Speaker 2: in twenty nineteen to solve this intractable problem is to 952 00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:36,760 Speaker 2: set up the Infrastructure Commission.

So 1009 00:49:24,560 --> 00:49:26,960 Speaker 2: if you are interested in what is going on with 1010 00:49:27,160 --> 00:49:30,200 Speaker 2: Eric Stanford putting this Ta kung Amhudi stuff into law 1011 00:49:30,840 --> 00:49:33,040 Speaker 2: for school boards, stand by. I'll explain it to you 1012 00:49:33,120 --> 00:49:35,480 Speaker 2: before six o'clock. Right now, as I say, twenty four 1013 00:49:35,480 --> 00:49:36,280 Speaker 2: away from six. 1014 00:49:36,160 --> 00:49:38,279 Speaker 3: Now ever, do for Cee Ellen. 1015 00:49:38,400 --> 00:49:40,160 Speaker 2: There will be no rugby and the Carpety and Horde 1016 00:49:40,200 --> 00:49:42,719 Speaker 2: Fenua regions this weekend because the local rugby union has 1017 00:49:42,760 --> 00:49:45,799 Speaker 2: canceled all club games all school games after another case 1018 00:49:45,800 --> 00:49:48,440 Speaker 2: of referee abuse. The game was between Carpety College and 1019 00:49:48,520 --> 00:49:51,360 Speaker 2: Marna College. The union said the ref was so seriously 1020 00:49:51,360 --> 00:49:53,359 Speaker 2: abused he had to be escorted to his car. Mike 1021 00:49:53,400 --> 00:49:57,960 Speaker 2: Hester is the participation development manager at New Zealand Rugby. Hey, Mike, Hi, 1022 00:49:58,520 --> 00:50:00,680 Speaker 2: what happened was this between the re and the coach 1023 00:50:00,719 --> 00:50:01,560 Speaker 2: of one of the teams. 1024 00:50:04,239 --> 00:50:06,719 Speaker 18: The details depend on who you talk to, but the 1025 00:50:06,719 --> 00:50:12,000 Speaker 18: reality was there was some views from spectators that we're 1026 00:50:12,040 --> 00:50:14,160 Speaker 18: really at the heart of it, and so that's what 1027 00:50:14,360 --> 00:50:16,439 Speaker 18: led to some of the issues with the game having 1028 00:50:16,480 --> 00:50:18,000 Speaker 18: to be called off. 1029 00:50:18,239 --> 00:50:20,480 Speaker 2: So did so the spectator started piping up and did 1030 00:50:20,520 --> 00:50:21,960 Speaker 2: they then wind up one of the coaches? 1031 00:50:23,239 --> 00:50:23,439 Speaker 5: Yeah? 1032 00:50:23,560 --> 00:50:25,080 Speaker 18: So the reality is, I mean a lot of these 1033 00:50:25,080 --> 00:50:27,600 Speaker 18: things can can happen on the sideline with with with 1034 00:50:27,840 --> 00:50:32,520 Speaker 18: chat from spectators to coaches and the like. So probably 1035 00:50:32,480 --> 00:50:35,319 Speaker 18: the details of it, again it depends on who you 1036 00:50:35,360 --> 00:50:38,080 Speaker 18: talk to and the reports, but certainly it was sufficient 1037 00:50:38,200 --> 00:50:41,840 Speaker 18: enough that referee had to make a decision around the 1038 00:50:41,840 --> 00:50:44,040 Speaker 18: game and then be supported to be able to lease. 1039 00:50:44,200 --> 00:50:46,640 Speaker 2: And was it the coach of the Monna team, which 1040 00:50:46,680 --> 00:50:47,840 Speaker 2: is the team that lost. 1041 00:50:49,640 --> 00:50:53,560 Speaker 18: Again, probably not looking to get into specific Come. 1042 00:50:53,200 --> 00:50:55,920 Speaker 2: On, this is what is out there. It's already out there. 1043 00:50:55,960 --> 00:50:59,480 Speaker 2: So either either you're going to let somebody continue to 1044 00:50:59,520 --> 00:51:02,279 Speaker 2: be falsely accused or we're going to clear it up. 1045 00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:08,360 Speaker 18: Uh, probably don't have the information to be really accurate, 1046 00:51:08,560 --> 00:51:12,000 Speaker 18: and we don't want to start sort of causing suggestions 1047 00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:12,680 Speaker 18: about who did what. 1048 00:51:12,840 --> 00:51:16,560 Speaker 2: Did the ref push or punch the coach? Not to 1049 00:51:16,600 --> 00:51:20,560 Speaker 2: my knowledge, no, neither of them. 1050 00:51:19,520 --> 00:51:24,440 Speaker 18: Not not to my knowledge, and the ref again not 1051 00:51:24,440 --> 00:51:26,640 Speaker 18: not to my knowledge. And there will be an investigation 1052 00:51:26,719 --> 00:51:28,680 Speaker 18: that will work through all of those issues to get 1053 00:51:28,680 --> 00:51:29,480 Speaker 18: to the bottom of all of it. 1054 00:51:29,680 --> 00:51:32,600 Speaker 2: And was this because the ref because the crowd felt 1055 00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:35,319 Speaker 2: that the whistle had been delayed, allowing the opposing team 1056 00:51:35,360 --> 00:51:37,120 Speaker 2: to score another try and thus win the game? 1057 00:51:42,680 --> 00:51:46,120 Speaker 18: Again, it depends on on the reports that you you 1058 00:51:46,120 --> 00:51:49,719 Speaker 18: you listen to. But again, these things will be worked through. 1059 00:51:49,719 --> 00:51:52,400 Speaker 5: But the real tell you what I don't know. 1060 00:51:53,040 --> 00:51:54,680 Speaker 2: I mean, I didn't get you guys, I didn't get 1061 00:51:54,719 --> 00:51:56,520 Speaker 2: you on to have a fight with you, So I apologize. 1062 00:51:56,520 --> 00:51:58,239 Speaker 2: But why are you being weird and shady about this? 1063 00:51:59,080 --> 00:51:59,880 Speaker 2: Why not just tell us what? 1064 00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:01,640 Speaker 3: Gold Well? 1065 00:52:01,640 --> 00:52:04,120 Speaker 18: The reality is that we don't exactly know what happened 1066 00:52:04,120 --> 00:52:06,759 Speaker 18: because there's a process that will be followed through to 1067 00:52:06,960 --> 00:52:07,719 Speaker 18: get to the bottom of it. 1068 00:52:07,719 --> 00:52:10,680 Speaker 2: One this happen at the weekend? Or am I imagining. 1069 00:52:10,360 --> 00:52:13,600 Speaker 18: That No, no, did it happen at the weekend. 1070 00:52:13,840 --> 00:52:15,799 Speaker 2: So you're telling me on Thursday you don't know what 1071 00:52:15,840 --> 00:52:16,720 Speaker 2: happened at the weekend. 1072 00:52:17,880 --> 00:52:20,879 Speaker 18: Well, these are local matters that HKA has worked through 1073 00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:22,600 Speaker 18: to evaluate. 1074 00:52:22,640 --> 00:52:25,760 Speaker 2: What can I tell you something. There are some people 1075 00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:27,480 Speaker 2: who have spoken to are pretty annoyed at in New 1076 00:52:27,560 --> 00:52:29,359 Speaker 2: Zealand Rod because they reckon you guys just don't care 1077 00:52:29,360 --> 00:52:31,200 Speaker 2: about the stuff enough. And it's sounding of it like that. 1078 00:52:31,320 --> 00:52:36,360 Speaker 18: Ah, it's quite the contrary. The reality is that these 1079 00:52:36,480 --> 00:52:39,799 Speaker 18: sort of behaviors are just totally unacceptable. And we know 1080 00:52:39,920 --> 00:52:42,360 Speaker 18: that we have sort of around seven thousand games that 1081 00:52:42,360 --> 00:52:44,640 Speaker 18: are run every weekend and a lot of people role 1082 00:52:44,680 --> 00:52:48,920 Speaker 18: model really good behavior both as spectators, coaches, managers and 1083 00:52:48,960 --> 00:52:51,040 Speaker 18: officials try to do their job, so there will be 1084 00:52:51,080 --> 00:52:55,200 Speaker 18: these instances where unfortunately people get carried away and go 1085 00:52:55,320 --> 00:52:59,160 Speaker 18: below the line. When these things happen, we need to 1086 00:52:59,239 --> 00:53:01,400 Speaker 18: work through, you know, what are the facts, get to 1087 00:53:01,400 --> 00:53:05,040 Speaker 18: the bottom of that, run their appropriate investigations and let 1088 00:53:05,120 --> 00:53:08,959 Speaker 18: it run its course. What we're really pleased to see 1089 00:53:09,000 --> 00:53:12,279 Speaker 18: is that whilst it's disappointing to see that they go 1090 00:53:12,280 --> 00:53:15,400 Speaker 18: to these steps, is that the union has it acted 1091 00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:18,480 Speaker 18: to back up their officials and also what good behavior 1092 00:53:18,520 --> 00:53:20,560 Speaker 18: looks like, so these are things that are really important. 1093 00:53:20,600 --> 00:53:23,480 Speaker 2: Now, okay, Mike, I appreciate your time.

The demand 1141 00:55:13,640 --> 00:55:16,320 Speaker 13: is always greater than supply and to find that money 1142 00:55:16,360 --> 00:55:18,359 Speaker 13: that should have been focused on how do we get 1143 00:55:18,360 --> 00:55:21,480 Speaker 13: better health outcomes for you know, the kids down at 1144 00:55:21,480 --> 00:55:24,360 Speaker 13: the level of grassroots and make them better and healthier 1145 00:55:24,360 --> 00:55:28,279 Speaker 13: people was going to a professional rugby team.

You know, 1158 00:56:01,560 --> 00:56:02,680 Speaker 19: I think there'd be one of the one of the 1159 00:56:02,719 --> 00:56:05,560 Speaker 19: few occasions Morris and I might be in complete agreement. 1160 00:56:05,760 --> 00:56:09,400 Speaker 19: I find it extremely strange unless there's some other reason 1161 00:56:09,880 --> 00:56:12,880 Speaker 19: why this is the case, whether it's being used for promotion, 1162 00:56:13,120 --> 00:56:16,360 Speaker 19: to support education. 1163 00:56:17,160 --> 00:56:19,320 Speaker 2: So what it is that there's a bunch of pillars 1164 00:56:19,360 --> 00:56:22,759 Speaker 2: to find out order funding and one of them health education, housing, 1165 00:56:22,800 --> 00:56:25,000 Speaker 2: all the stuff that you would expect, but one of 1166 00:56:25,040 --> 00:56:28,239 Speaker 2: them is also cultural enrichment, right, and it feels like 1167 00:56:28,360 --> 00:56:32,200 Speaker 2: possibly these guys have funded the PACIFICA team for cultural 1168 00:56:32,280 --> 00:56:35,359 Speaker 2: enrichment for PACIFICA people. Does that wash with you? 1169 00:56:37,120 --> 00:56:40,560 Speaker 19: I don't think if you're I can see how you 1170 00:56:40,640 --> 00:56:43,879 Speaker 19: make fund grassroots rugby, I can see how you might 1171 00:56:44,040 --> 00:56:49,279 Speaker 19: fund a community rugby, but to fund professional rugby in 1172 00:56:49,320 --> 00:56:52,680 Speaker 19: that space seems to me to would normally feel any 1173 00:56:52,800 --> 00:56:55,400 Speaker 19: kind of normal cost benefit analysis that you would normally 1174 00:56:55,400 --> 00:56:56,160 Speaker 19: put forward in this. 1175 00:56:56,239 --> 00:56:59,920 Speaker 13: Space and here that whenever these things arise, the very 1176 00:57:00,040 --> 00:57:01,920 Speaker 13: first thing that shoots my mind or we've got this 1177 00:57:02,000 --> 00:57:04,160 Speaker 13: and it's exposed and it's an outrage. It's going to 1178 00:57:04,160 --> 00:57:06,880 Speaker 13: be dealt to in facts and the Pacific Medical as 1179 00:57:07,080 --> 00:57:10,480 Speaker 13: they've lost the contractor cause my first question always arise 1180 00:57:10,520 --> 00:57:12,719 Speaker 13: in my brain is and how many others are there 1181 00:57:12,760 --> 00:57:13,080 Speaker 13: of these? 1182 00:57:13,120 --> 00:57:13,279 Speaker 5: Well? 1183 00:57:13,320 --> 00:57:15,640 Speaker 2: Exactly, and that is the worrying thing, isn't it? And 1184 00:57:15,640 --> 00:57:18,240 Speaker 2: we've had texts along these lines, Morris, this does the 1185 00:57:18,280 --> 00:57:20,440 Speaker 2: minute that something like this comes out, people go, oh, 1186 00:57:20,440 --> 00:57:22,160 Speaker 2: there'll be heaps more of this And it's such a 1187 00:57:22,280 --> 00:57:23,400 Speaker 2: nock to public confidence. 1188 00:57:23,440 --> 00:57:24,960 Speaker 13: Isn't it correct? 1189 00:57:25,120 --> 00:57:27,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's really it's a real pity. All right, will 1190 00:57:27,040 --> 00:57:28,760 Speaker 2: take a break, come back to you guys, shorties shortly 1191 00:57:28,840 --> 00:57:31,480 Speaker 2: as sixteen away from six the. 1192 00:57:31,520 --> 00:57:36,040 Speaker 1: Huddle with New Zealand Southeby's International Realty achieve extraordinary results 1193 00:57:36,080 --> 00:57:37,360 Speaker 1: with unparallel reach. 1194 00:57:37,640 --> 00:57:39,320 Speaker 2: Right, you're back on the huddle with Marris Williamson and 1195 00:57:39,320 --> 00:57:43,560 Speaker 2: Craig Rennie. Now, Morris, how much how much support do 1196 00:57:43,600 --> 00:57:46,440 Speaker 2: you think there are in the affected areas for fifteen 1197 00:57:46,520 --> 00:57:48,160 Speaker 2: story buildings in Auckland. 1198 00:57:48,920 --> 00:57:49,040 Speaker 5: Oh? 1199 00:57:49,120 --> 00:57:51,640 Speaker 13: Look, I would imagine there'd be a level of grumpiness 1200 00:57:51,680 --> 00:57:54,280 Speaker 13: in the very specific affected areas, But if you look 1201 00:57:54,320 --> 00:57:57,520 Speaker 13: at it in the entire entirety of the old proposal, 1202 00:57:57,880 --> 00:58:00,800 Speaker 13: it makes really good sense. What we had is the 1203 00:58:00,960 --> 00:58:03,960 Speaker 13: stupid thing that both political parties agreed to. And let 1204 00:58:04,040 --> 00:58:05,360 Speaker 13: me tell you, if they're ever going to have sort 1205 00:58:05,360 --> 00:58:07,560 Speaker 13: of bipartis an agreement, we need to get something a 1206 00:58:07,560 --> 00:58:11,440 Speaker 13: bit better than the medium densities stuff for Auckland. We 1207 00:58:11,440 --> 00:58:15,320 Speaker 13: were building junkie pieces of things right in between nice 1208 00:58:15,320 --> 00:58:17,840 Speaker 13: houses that people have paid a fortune for and had 1209 00:58:17,840 --> 00:58:21,040 Speaker 13: a right to believe they could retain their value, and 1210 00:58:20,680 --> 00:58:23,400 Speaker 13: they were not even on bus routes and there's been 1211 00:58:23,400 --> 00:58:26,240 Speaker 13: stuff all over the place. So what's been happening And 1212 00:58:26,280 --> 00:58:28,400 Speaker 13: the council has been pleading for it, and the government's 1213 00:58:28,400 --> 00:58:30,560 Speaker 13: come through and said, look, the best way you can 1214 00:58:30,600 --> 00:58:34,080 Speaker 13: get intensification is down the rail corridors, down the major 1215 00:58:34,120 --> 00:58:36,680 Speaker 13: bus routes, and there we should be prepared to go 1216 00:58:36,880 --> 00:58:39,040 Speaker 13: up and build lots and lots of places where you 1217 00:58:39,080 --> 00:58:41,479 Speaker 13: can walk out of your apartment walk one hundred meters 1218 00:58:41,560 --> 00:58:42,760 Speaker 13: or two undre meters steps. 1219 00:58:43,120 --> 00:58:46,800 Speaker 2: On the fifteen stories because that's bloody high man. Would 1220 00:58:46,800 --> 00:58:48,520 Speaker 2: you would you start? Is it your opening? Gam But 1221 00:58:48,600 --> 00:58:49,360 Speaker 2: can we negotiate you? 1222 00:58:50,040 --> 00:58:52,800 Speaker 13: The government have said and that specific thing, haven't They 1223 00:58:52,880 --> 00:58:56,520 Speaker 13: said a minimum of fifteen within the central city and 1224 00:58:56,600 --> 00:58:58,360 Speaker 13: we've got plenty of buildings in the city that are 1225 00:58:58,360 --> 00:58:59,560 Speaker 13: fifteen and more. Stories. 1226 00:58:59,560 --> 00:59:02,400 Speaker 2: Now city is a high thing. I mean, if you've 1227 00:59:02,400 --> 00:59:04,520 Speaker 2: got a villa and then you were fifteen stories next 1228 00:59:04,560 --> 00:59:05,520 Speaker 2: to it, that salon. 1229 00:59:06,400 --> 00:59:10,240 Speaker 13: Well, it'll only be on the rail. They've named heaven Day, 1230 00:59:10,640 --> 00:59:15,680 Speaker 13: Kingsland and Mountain and Railway Station. Look, what I think 1231 00:59:15,760 --> 00:59:18,560 Speaker 13: is that the vast bulk of destruction of wealth of 1232 00:59:18,600 --> 00:59:21,360 Speaker 13: normal properties that was going on with the MDRS was 1233 00:59:21,600 --> 00:59:24,360 Speaker 13: insanity and I think that if you're going to try 1234 00:59:24,400 --> 00:59:26,600 Speaker 13: to get people into public transport, you need to have 1235 00:59:26,680 --> 00:59:30,280 Speaker 13: them living as close to the major corridors and down 1236 00:59:30,320 --> 00:59:34,560 Speaker 13: that rail lines. They're putting five billion or more into 1237 00:59:34,600 --> 00:59:36,800 Speaker 13: the CRL. If you're going to do that, you need 1238 00:59:36,840 --> 00:59:39,080 Speaker 13: to get back an investment. I think it's a great idea. 1239 00:59:39,240 --> 00:59:40,800 Speaker 13: I think the government's been great to do it, and 1240 00:59:40,840 --> 00:59:43,439 Speaker 13: I'm pretty sure most of the councilors that we were 1241 00:59:43,760 --> 00:59:46,400 Speaker 13: being briefed on all this yesterday are pretty strongly in 1242 00:59:46,440 --> 00:59:47,240 Speaker 13: support of it as well. 1243 00:59:47,320 --> 00:59:49,280 Speaker 2: Okay, Craig, what do you think of this? 1244 00:59:50,360 --> 00:59:53,080 Speaker 19: Well, I think we've metally, not just not just this, 1245 00:59:53,480 --> 00:59:58,840 Speaker 19: Successive governments have made really significant investments in these transport corridors. 1246 00:59:59,480 --> 01:00:02,480 Speaker 19: You know, not putting high density hasing and not allowing 1247 01:00:02,520 --> 01:00:04,880 Speaker 19: high density housing next to them would seem to really 1248 01:00:04,880 --> 01:00:09,120 Speaker 19: miss an opportunity created by that investment. What worries me 1249 01:00:10,400 --> 01:00:12,880 Speaker 19: is that it's not so much the housing. It's making 1250 01:00:12,880 --> 01:00:15,040 Speaker 19: sure that those new residents who are living in that 1251 01:00:15,200 --> 01:00:18,120 Speaker 19: you know, very high density properties have access to the 1252 01:00:18,120 --> 01:00:21,360 Speaker 19: amenities that mean that we're not just building future ghettos 1253 01:00:21,960 --> 01:00:24,240 Speaker 19: and so making sure that they've got access to to 1254 01:00:24,360 --> 01:00:28,480 Speaker 19: retail to GPS to other public services. Because we can 1255 01:00:28,480 --> 01:00:30,960 Speaker 19: build lots of housing, we need to be actually building 1256 01:00:30,960 --> 01:00:32,280 Speaker 19: communities and. 1257 01:00:32,160 --> 01:00:36,520 Speaker 20: What we we're on tune on everything, and what I 1258 01:00:36,520 --> 01:00:40,000 Speaker 20: wouldn't want to see is us building huge numbers of 1259 01:00:40,040 --> 01:00:43,040 Speaker 20: new skyscrapers and various places or even just very tall buildings. 1260 01:00:44,120 --> 01:00:47,200 Speaker 2: And this is why I hate bipartisanship because both of you, 1261 01:00:47,440 --> 01:00:49,640 Speaker 2: I disagree with both of you on thet Now nobody 1262 01:00:49,680 --> 01:00:50,440 Speaker 2: represents me. 1263 01:00:52,360 --> 01:00:52,520 Speaker 3: Well. 1264 01:00:52,560 --> 01:00:53,960 Speaker 19: I think one of the things we also want to 1265 01:00:54,000 --> 01:00:56,200 Speaker 19: make sure is that you know, we're building housing for 1266 01:00:56,560 --> 01:00:59,640 Speaker 19: everyone's needs in the city. And one of the problems 1267 01:00:59,640 --> 01:01:01,320 Speaker 19: that we know in Auckland, the city have more than 1268 01:01:01,320 --> 01:01:03,920 Speaker 19: a million people, there's a real shortage of one and 1269 01:01:04,000 --> 01:01:08,000 Speaker 19: two bedroom units in Auckland, and we need to be 1270 01:01:08,000 --> 01:01:10,200 Speaker 19: building lots more of those for the communities that are 1271 01:01:10,200 --> 01:01:12,040 Speaker 19: going to be in Auckland in the future. And this 1272 01:01:12,120 --> 01:01:13,960 Speaker 19: is this is a means of doing that. But it's 1273 01:01:14,160 --> 01:01:17,520 Speaker 19: to me, it's much more about building the amenities alongside 1274 01:01:17,560 --> 01:01:20,400 Speaker 19: of it, the schools, you know, the GP practices, the retail, 1275 01:01:20,640 --> 01:01:23,680 Speaker 19: so that we're building really long term communities, not just 1276 01:01:24,000 --> 01:01:25,000 Speaker 19: some shorts and housing. 1277 01:01:25,520 --> 01:01:27,560 Speaker 13: But if you look around Auckland, if you look closely 1278 01:01:27,640 --> 01:01:30,000 Speaker 13: all around some of the rail corridors, and you know 1279 01:01:30,120 --> 01:01:32,600 Speaker 13: down through the South corridor and down the Eastern corridor 1280 01:01:32,720 --> 01:01:34,800 Speaker 13: and even on the western one, there are sort of 1281 01:01:34,800 --> 01:01:37,240 Speaker 13: big lines of car yards and there are big lines 1282 01:01:37,280 --> 01:01:40,120 Speaker 13: of industry and so on that literally could easily be 1283 01:01:40,200 --> 01:01:43,400 Speaker 13: located elsewhere and you could use that land that is 1284 01:01:43,440 --> 01:01:46,520 Speaker 13: within walkable distance, because that's the key where people no 1285 01:01:46,600 --> 01:01:48,880 Speaker 13: longer need to use a car, because you cannot keep 1286 01:01:49,040 --> 01:01:52,040 Speaker 13: putting more cars on Auckland's roads. They're already jammed, locked, 1287 01:01:52,080 --> 01:01:54,000 Speaker 13: blocked and stopped. So you've got to find a way 1288 01:01:54,000 --> 01:01:57,320 Speaker 13: of people finding public transport as more viable. 1289 01:01:57,560 --> 01:01:59,320 Speaker 19: And can it can add to that Morris that I 1290 01:01:59,320 --> 01:02:01,760 Speaker 19: think it's not just an Auckland problem. We have the 1291 01:02:01,800 --> 01:02:04,920 Speaker 19: same problem. I s Sathier and Wellington and we'll have 1292 01:02:05,040 --> 01:02:08,000 Speaker 19: you know on on Cambridge Terrace we have a whole 1293 01:02:08,040 --> 01:02:11,040 Speaker 19: heap of caryards within walking distance of the CBD. 1294 01:02:11,360 --> 01:02:14,200 Speaker 2: Would you would you like me to hook you up 1295 01:02:14,240 --> 01:02:17,080 Speaker 2: with each others you're going out for dinner late, it's 1296 01:02:17,120 --> 01:02:19,320 Speaker 2: the rate you'll go and no, off you go. The 1297 01:02:19,360 --> 01:02:21,720 Speaker 2: pair of you can have that conversation in private, Thanks 1298 01:02:21,840 --> 01:02:24,520 Speaker 2: very much. It's Morris Williams and Craig Rennie the huddle 1299 01:02:24,760 --> 01:02:27,080 Speaker 2: next time somebody says that we need political consensus, No, 1300 01:02:27,160 --> 01:02:29,160 Speaker 2: you don't. That's what that looks like. Eight away from. 1301 01:02:29,040 --> 01:02:33,600 Speaker 1: Six, it's the Heather duper se Allen Drive Full Show 1302 01:02:33,640 --> 01:02:37,080 Speaker 1: podcast on my Heart Radio powered by News Talk ZB. 1303 01:02:38,520 --> 01:02:41,000 Speaker 2: Heather, be consistent. You can't be in favor of expanding 1304 01:02:41,040 --> 01:02:43,960 Speaker 2: concerts at Eden Park and not in favor of rational 1305 01:02:44,000 --> 01:02:46,040 Speaker 2: building in a major city. Both change the character of 1306 01:02:46,080 --> 01:02:48,840 Speaker 2: the area and decent, decent density housing is way bet 1307 01:02:48,880 --> 01:02:50,440 Speaker 2: if Auckland Ellen, that's a fair point, But this is 1308 01:02:50,440 --> 01:02:54,160 Speaker 2: what i'd say. Do you think that more concerts at 1309 01:02:54,320 --> 01:02:56,919 Speaker 2: Eden Park drop the value of Helen Clark's house? 1310 01:02:57,920 --> 01:02:58,000 Speaker 3: No? 1311 01:02:58,520 --> 01:03:00,560 Speaker 2: Do you think if somebody stuck a fifteen story building 1312 01:03:00,560 --> 01:03:02,280 Speaker 2: next to Helen Clark's house it would drop the value 1313 01:03:02,280 --> 01:03:05,160 Speaker 2: of Halling Clark's house. Yes, there's your problem, and the 1314 01:03:05,200 --> 01:03:07,360 Speaker 2: house is the biggest investment that you've got. Okay, it's 1315 01:03:07,440 --> 01:03:10,200 Speaker 2: five to six, so we're going to I've heard back 1316 01:03:10,200 --> 01:03:13,040 Speaker 2: from Erica's press secretary. To his credit, he's managed to 1317 01:03:13,040 --> 01:03:14,960 Speaker 2: answer the questions. I've got what I think is a 1318 01:03:15,000 --> 01:03:18,280 Speaker 2: reasonably complete picture. Hair, So as much as I could possibly. 1319 01:03:18,640 --> 01:03:20,760 Speaker 2: I heard Mike talking about this business with Erica and 1320 01:03:20,760 --> 01:03:23,600 Speaker 2: the Ta Kunger clause and the election law, and like Mike, 1321 01:03:23,640 --> 01:03:25,320 Speaker 2: have been getting a lot of emails about it, and 1322 01:03:25,360 --> 01:03:27,160 Speaker 2: I think it's fair to raise questions about this. I'm 1323 01:03:27,160 --> 01:03:28,560 Speaker 2: going to tell you what I know based on what 1324 01:03:28,600 --> 01:03:31,200 Speaker 2: I've asked around today. So this relates to the Education 1325 01:03:31,320 --> 01:03:34,600 Speaker 2: and Training Amendment Bill number two, which the government is 1326 01:03:34,760 --> 01:03:37,880 Speaker 2: changing in order to try to force school boards to 1327 01:03:37,920 --> 01:03:41,400 Speaker 2: make educational achievement their priority. Right, don't get strack up 1328 01:03:41,440 --> 01:03:43,880 Speaker 2: all the other stuff. Educational achievement is the most important thing. 1329 01:03:44,800 --> 01:03:48,160 Speaker 2: Hobson's pledge has started stirring people up because they have 1330 01:03:48,200 --> 01:03:52,360 Speaker 2: spotted the treaty clause. They say the treaty clause forces 1331 01:03:52,440 --> 01:03:55,240 Speaker 2: every school board in the country to reflect quote local 1332 01:03:55,280 --> 01:03:57,800 Speaker 2: Ta kung A Mahori matadung A Maori and their ol 1333 01:03:57,880 --> 01:04:01,120 Speaker 2: Mahori and their policies, plans and classroom tea. Now, from 1334 01:04:01,160 --> 01:04:05,480 Speaker 2: what I understand, yes, there is a treaty clause, but no, 1335 01:04:06,040 --> 01:04:08,800 Speaker 2: the treaty clause is not knew the treaty clause was 1336 01:04:08,840 --> 01:04:13,240 Speaker 2: always there. The problem is Erica knows the treaty clause 1337 01:04:13,320 --> 01:04:15,920 Speaker 2: is there, and Erica doesn't want to take the Treaty 1338 01:04:15,920 --> 01:04:18,440 Speaker 2: Clause US out. She has been asked to take the 1339 01:04:18,480 --> 01:04:21,320 Speaker 2: treaty clause out, it's part of the coalition government. She 1340 01:04:21,440 --> 01:04:23,880 Speaker 2: has said no, and that's why it's still there now. 1341 01:04:24,880 --> 01:04:27,880 Speaker 2: That will be very disappointing to a lot of voters 1342 01:04:28,120 --> 01:04:30,600 Speaker 2: of the coalition government because you will remember that they 1343 01:04:30,720 --> 01:04:33,400 Speaker 2: promised to take these treaty clauses out. It was part 1344 01:04:33,440 --> 01:04:36,280 Speaker 2: of the New Zealand First Negotiation, a New Zealand First 1345 01:04:36,280 --> 01:04:40,240 Speaker 2: coalition agreement with National They said, quote, review all references 1346 01:04:40,240 --> 01:04:43,360 Speaker 2: to the Treaty of Whiteitungy principles in legislation and remove 1347 01:04:43,560 --> 01:04:46,640 Speaker 2: or replace them. So if you're busy rewriting this right now, 1348 01:04:46,720 --> 01:04:48,520 Speaker 2: why don't you just get rid of the treaty clause 1349 01:04:49,040 --> 01:04:51,360 Speaker 2: right instead. What they're doing, as they're kicking the can 1350 01:04:51,400 --> 01:04:53,400 Speaker 2: down the road, it's going to a review that's being 1351 01:04:53,480 --> 01:04:56,160 Speaker 2: led by Justice Minister Paul Goldsmith. He's going to review 1352 01:04:56,160 --> 01:04:58,000 Speaker 2: it and he's going to decide what to do. So 1353 01:04:58,320 --> 01:05:01,720 Speaker 2: Erica is not guilty of putting it in there. Erica 1354 01:05:01,800 --> 01:05:04,280 Speaker 2: is guilty of not taking it out. And I think 1355 01:05:04,320 --> 01:05:06,640 Speaker 2: that is just as bad because it is yet another 1356 01:05:06,720 --> 01:05:09,520 Speaker 2: case of this government having said they're going to do 1357 01:05:09,560 --> 01:05:14,320 Speaker 2: one thing, and then they're court going, oh, oh oh, 1358 01:05:14,320 --> 01:05:16,720 Speaker 2: you busted us. No, we did say we know, and 1359 01:05:16,720 --> 01:05:17,880 Speaker 2: then we didn't do you know. I mean that's what 1360 01:05:17,880 --> 01:05:20,240 Speaker 2: they're doing. They're like, they're hoping that you don't notice 1361 01:05:20,400 --> 01:05:23,160 Speaker 2: that they're not doing the thing, except we are noticing 1362 01:05:23,200 --> 01:05:25,760 Speaker 2: they're not doing the thing. Erica, by the way, is 1363 01:05:25,840 --> 01:05:29,040 Speaker 2: on do we know what time with Mike to morrow? Anyway, 1364 01:05:29,160 --> 01:05:31,520 Speaker 2: Eric's on with Mike tomorrow, So if you care about 1365 01:05:31,520 --> 01:05:34,400 Speaker 2: this issue, tune in, because you know he cares about 1366 01:05:34,440 --> 01:05:36,040 Speaker 2: it and he's gonna have a little chatter about it. 1367 01:05:36,280 --> 01:05:39,200 Speaker 2: Fluffertzeimer is a the PSA. Next on the employment changes 1368 01:05:39,240 --> 01:05:41,600 Speaker 2: that have just been made to law newstag zip. 1369 01:05:47,120 --> 01:05:50,480 Speaker 1: Keeping track of where the money is flowing.

What is 1374 01:06:02,280 --> 01:06:04,400 Speaker 2: going wrong for Nike. We'll have a chat to Sam 1375 01:06:04,440 --> 01:06:07,000 Speaker 2: Dicky about that. Jamie McKay on the shock news that 1376 01:06:07,040 --> 01:06:09,520 Speaker 2: Federated Farmers has dumped the chair of the wool and 1377 01:06:09,680 --> 01:06:11,720 Speaker 2: Meat Group, and also Endebrady is with us out of 1378 01:06:11,720 --> 01:06:15,000 Speaker 2: the UK at seven past six. Now workers taking part 1379 01:06:15,040 --> 01:06:18,720 Speaker 2: impartial strikes could soon have their pay docked. Legislation passed 1380 01:06:18,720 --> 01:06:20,800 Speaker 2: in Parliament last night. Now, the law was changed by 1381 01:06:20,840 --> 01:06:23,600 Speaker 2: the previous government in twenty eighteen that stopped the docking 1382 01:06:23,640 --> 01:06:26,280 Speaker 2: of the pay. Now it's been reversed. In recent years. 1383 01:06:26,280 --> 01:06:27,960 Speaker 2: We've seen the teachers and the train drivers and the 1384 01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:31,360 Speaker 2: end ZDF stuff all engage in partial strikes. Flurfit Simons 1385 01:06:31,640 --> 01:06:34,120 Speaker 2: is the PSA's national secretary and with us now, hey. 1386 01:06:34,000 --> 01:06:36,200 Speaker 4: Flur good evening, Heather. 1387 01:06:36,400 --> 01:06:38,360 Speaker 2: Okay, so what is the docking of the pay ten percent? 1388 01:06:39,840 --> 01:06:42,400 Speaker 4: Yes, so there is the opportunity now for employers to 1389 01:06:42,520 --> 01:06:46,200 Speaker 4: dock pay for up to ten percent for workers who 1390 01:06:46,240 --> 01:06:49,680 Speaker 4: take partial strike action. So that's quite low level strike action, 1391 01:06:49,920 --> 01:06:53,000 Speaker 4: usually at the beginning of a dispute, in an effort 1392 01:06:53,080 --> 01:06:55,560 Speaker 4: to try and make the employer understand that are serious 1393 01:06:55,640 --> 01:06:58,360 Speaker 4: and that they would like to settle the issue. 1394 01:06:58,480 --> 01:07:01,120 Speaker 2: Is it partial strike or does that is it just 1395 01:07:01,200 --> 01:07:03,160 Speaker 2: partial strikes or is it also working to rule? 1396 01:07:04,480 --> 01:07:07,640 Speaker 4: Well, that's still to be decided and that there is 1397 01:07:07,680 --> 01:07:11,960 Speaker 4: a lot of legal action that will result. Is part 1398 01:07:12,000 --> 01:07:15,840 Speaker 4: of this new legislation that's come in. We certainly think 1399 01:07:15,920 --> 01:07:19,400 Speaker 4: that workers shouldn't have their paydoct when they're simply working 1400 01:07:19,440 --> 01:07:22,480 Speaker 4: to roll or taking their breaks at the same time. 1401 01:07:23,120 --> 01:07:25,600 Speaker 4: But whether the employers do that, and whether the courts 1402 01:07:25,680 --> 01:07:28,560 Speaker 4: uphold it will something will be something to be seen. 1403 01:07:28,760 --> 01:07:31,880 Speaker 2: Ah Okay, So it's clear that partial strikes are affected, 1404 01:07:32,440 --> 01:07:34,640 Speaker 2: but it is possible that working to rule is not affected. 1405 01:07:35,440 --> 01:07:37,880 Speaker 4: Well, that's the argument that we're making. I'm not sure 1406 01:07:37,880 --> 01:07:39,360 Speaker 4: the government has the same position. 1407 01:07:39,760 --> 01:07:43,160 Speaker 2: But do you believe the government wants to dock the pay, 1408 01:07:43,320 --> 01:07:45,640 Speaker 2: wants to allow employers to dock the pay of people 1409 01:07:45,640 --> 01:07:46,640 Speaker 2: who are working to rule? 1410 01:07:47,520 --> 01:07:51,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that is their intention. And actually all 1411 01:07:51,200 --> 01:07:54,560 Speaker 4: of this is about undermining the power that workers have 1412 01:07:54,840 --> 01:07:58,440 Speaker 4: to advance their interests and see better wages and conditions. 1413 01:07:58,440 --> 01:08:01,000 Speaker 4: And we already have quite a ma power and balance 1414 01:08:01,040 --> 01:08:04,080 Speaker 4: in this country between workers and employers, and employers have 1415 01:08:04,240 --> 01:08:07,880 Speaker 4: lots of tools available to them to impose conditions which 1416 01:08:08,160 --> 01:08:10,400 Speaker 4: are not fair, and that's why we have a problem 1417 01:08:10,480 --> 01:08:11,840 Speaker 4: with low wages in New Zealand. 1418 01:08:12,240 --> 01:08:14,160 Speaker 2: The reason I keep asking about the working to rule 1419 01:08:14,200 --> 01:08:15,720 Speaker 2: is because that would be very unfair. I mean, my 1420 01:08:15,800 --> 01:08:17,880 Speaker 2: understanding of working to rule you know more than me, 1421 01:08:18,040 --> 01:08:20,679 Speaker 2: But it's basically just turning up and doing the job 1422 01:08:20,720 --> 01:08:23,880 Speaker 2: as per your contract. Right, so you would only be 1423 01:08:23,920 --> 01:08:26,200 Speaker 2: doing what you are supposed to do for your full pay, 1424 01:08:26,400 --> 01:08:27,000 Speaker 2: isn't that right? 1425 01:08:27,840 --> 01:08:30,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's exactly right. And we know that so many 1426 01:08:30,280 --> 01:08:33,479 Speaker 4: New Zealand workers put in extra time, longer hours than 1427 01:08:33,520 --> 01:08:36,240 Speaker 4: they're paid for. And at the moment, if you do 1428 01:08:36,439 --> 01:08:39,760 Speaker 4: decide collectively to work to rule, that is a form 1429 01:08:39,760 --> 01:08:42,200 Speaker 4: of strike action, and you do have to run a 1430 01:08:42,240 --> 01:08:44,600 Speaker 4: secret ballot for it, and it can be very disruptive 1431 01:08:44,600 --> 01:08:47,960 Speaker 4: because employers rely on it. The government thinks that this 1432 01:08:48,120 --> 01:08:50,880 Speaker 4: law gives them the right to deduct for that will 1433 01:08:50,880 --> 01:08:52,919 Speaker 4: be contesting that in the courts, I imagine. 1434 01:08:53,000 --> 01:08:56,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, Now, is there any indication that there have 1435 01:08:56,880 --> 01:08:59,960 Speaker 2: been more strikes as a result of employers being unable 1436 01:09:00,160 --> 01:09:02,320 Speaker 2: to doc pay in the last few years? 1437 01:09:02,680 --> 01:09:05,519 Speaker 4: No, there heaven. And actually it's worth remembering that the 1438 01:09:05,640 --> 01:09:09,080 Speaker 4: vast majority of collective agreements in New Zealand are settled 1439 01:09:09,120 --> 01:09:13,000 Speaker 4: without their being any industrial action, and workers and unions, 1440 01:09:13,040 --> 01:09:16,040 Speaker 4: employers sit down and they negotiate every day and come 1441 01:09:16,080 --> 01:09:19,360 Speaker 4: to agreements, and no worker takes a decision to take 1442 01:09:19,479 --> 01:09:20,120 Speaker 4: strike action. 1443 01:09:20,320 --> 01:09:20,679 Speaker 16: Lightly. 1444 01:09:20,800 --> 01:09:24,320 Speaker 4: It's a very serious, considered decision, and really what we 1445 01:09:24,360 --> 01:09:27,080 Speaker 4: think this will do is probably lead to more full 1446 01:09:27,080 --> 01:09:31,120 Speaker 4: stoppages because the ability to take partial strike action at 1447 01:09:31,160 --> 01:09:33,559 Speaker 4: that low level is significantly reduced. 1448 01:09:33,600 --> 01:09:35,960 Speaker 2: Now I see, flur Thank you very much, appreciate your time. 1449 01:09:35,960 --> 01:09:39,040 Speaker 2: It's Flurford Sigmons PSA National Secretary. 1450 01:09:38,920 --> 01:09:41,240 Speaker 3: Ever duplesl whether you are. 1451 01:09:41,160 --> 01:09:44,559 Speaker 2: Wrong on the Education Amendment Bill number two, the Maori 1452 01:09:44,680 --> 01:09:48,040 Speaker 2: learning requirement has been added and it is compulsory as 1453 01:09:48,120 --> 01:09:51,920 Speaker 2: currently written. Hither the Education Amendment Bill number two treaty 1454 01:09:51,920 --> 01:09:55,920 Speaker 2: clauses are dramatically more prescriptive than those that they replace. Matthew, 1455 01:09:55,960 --> 01:09:58,600 Speaker 2: thank you. I can be wrong. I just told you 1456 01:09:58,640 --> 01:10:01,280 Speaker 2: what the best that I know best best to my 1457 01:10:01,400 --> 01:10:05,800 Speaker 2: knowledge what is happening. But you know what, I don't 1458 01:10:05,840 --> 01:10:07,599 Speaker 2: know everything. So we'll see how this one plays out. 1459 01:10:07,680 --> 01:10:09,679 Speaker 2: Eric is on with Mike tomorrow. Have a listen. Now, 1460 01:10:09,920 --> 01:10:12,400 Speaker 2: do you remember a couple of weeks ago there was 1461 01:10:12,439 --> 01:10:15,240 Speaker 2: that a report rather that warned that New Zealand is 1462 01:10:15,280 --> 01:10:17,280 Speaker 2: becoming more corrupt and that the biggest risk that we 1463 01:10:17,320 --> 01:10:20,160 Speaker 2: face as a country is basically insider threats. So it's 1464 01:10:20,200 --> 01:10:24,720 Speaker 2: things like cops being corrupted, officials being corrupted, border staff blah, 1465 01:10:24,720 --> 01:10:26,920 Speaker 2: blah blah. You know, you get the picture. Police have 1466 01:10:27,280 --> 01:10:29,960 Speaker 2: just busted, as if to prove the point, Police have 1467 01:10:30,120 --> 01:10:33,479 Speaker 2: just busted a twenty four million dollar smuggling operation. They 1468 01:10:33,600 --> 01:10:36,360 Speaker 2: rated nearly two dozen properties across Auckland. They hauled in 1469 01:10:36,400 --> 01:10:40,559 Speaker 2: sixty four cages of methamphetamine, three point five four cages 1470 01:10:40,600 --> 01:10:45,000 Speaker 2: of coke, huge amount of cash, sawn off, shotgun, and 1471 01:10:45,040 --> 01:10:49,400 Speaker 2: they arrested eighteen people. Nine of those people were baggage 1472 01:10:49,400 --> 01:10:53,839 Speaker 2: handlers and one was another staff member working at Auckland Airport. 1473 01:10:54,520 --> 01:10:56,600 Speaker 2: Twelve past six, It's the. 1474 01:10:56,680 --> 01:11:00,719 Speaker 1: Heather dupers Allen Drive Full Show podcast on hard Radio 1475 01:11:00,800 --> 01:11:07,080 Speaker 1: empowered by Newstalk ZEBBI, The Rural Report with MSD Animal Health, 1476 01:11:07,320 --> 01:11:09,759 Speaker 1: Home of selve X, and plus b ends It's only 1477 01:11:09,840 --> 01:11:11,160 Speaker 1: Salmonella Vaccine. 1478 01:11:11,880 --> 01:11:14,480 Speaker 2: Jamie mckaie, hosts of the Countries with us ELO.

It's farmer politics here 1482 01:11:24,840 --> 01:11:26,639 Speaker 21: that can be a bit of a brutal business.

And of course you spoke to me 1486 01:11:36,120 --> 01:11:39,439 Speaker 21: just on the eve of the Primary Industry Awards. We 1487 01:11:39,520 --> 01:11:42,479 Speaker 21: might get to that later, but yeare Toby Williams, and 1488 01:11:42,520 --> 01:11:46,120 Speaker 21: I know you've spoken to him on your show, Meet 1489 01:11:46,120 --> 01:11:49,000 Speaker 21: and woolchair for Federated Farmers. He's been dumped, no other 1490 01:11:49,040 --> 01:11:54,040 Speaker 21: word for it, outvoted and incomes Marlborough Provincial Vice president 1491 01:11:54,280 --> 01:11:58,280 Speaker 21: Richard Dawkins, a young bloke. I met him yesterday in 1492 01:11:58,360 --> 01:12:02,680 Speaker 21: christ Church. Now, Toby's been chairing the group since I 1493 01:12:02,800 --> 01:12:04,880 Speaker 21: think late just off the top of my head, late 1494 01:12:04,960 --> 01:12:09,320 Speaker 21: November or late twenty twenty two. They normally get to 1495 01:12:09,360 --> 01:12:11,679 Speaker 21: serve a minimum of three years and the rollers chair, 1496 01:12:11,800 --> 01:12:14,640 Speaker 21: so he's been challenged he's gone. Remembering this is the 1497 01:12:14,680 --> 01:12:18,800 Speaker 21: guy that front of the Save our Sheep campaign. He's 1498 01:12:18,840 --> 01:12:22,240 Speaker 21: been right at the forefront of leading the charge against 1499 01:12:22,360 --> 01:12:26,040 Speaker 21: carbon farming and I think he's done a really good 1500 01:12:26,120 --> 01:12:29,400 Speaker 21: job on that front. But someone in Federated Farmers isn't 1501 01:12:29,400 --> 01:12:32,879 Speaker 21: happy with them. Politics rules. He's gone. The other change 1502 01:12:33,320 --> 01:12:38,000 Speaker 21: is the dairy chair. Of course, we had Richard McIntyre 1503 01:12:38,120 --> 01:12:42,880 Speaker 21: stepping aside there North Canterbury Provincial president Carl Dean is 1504 01:12:42,920 --> 01:12:47,759 Speaker 21: the new National Dairy chair after the Waikato The other challenger, 1505 01:12:47,760 --> 01:12:52,559 Speaker 21: Waikato President Phil Sherwood, withdrew his nomination at. 1506 01:12:52,439 --> 01:12:53,400 Speaker 13: The last minute. 1507 01:12:53,520 --> 01:12:55,960 Speaker 21: You know, the mind biggles in the entrigue continues here 1508 01:12:56,560 --> 01:12:59,439 Speaker 21: with the Southern sudden. WI should do a soap opera 1509 01:12:59,479 --> 01:13:04,320 Speaker 21: on this sudden resignation the housewives of Federated Farmers. 1510 01:13:04,320 --> 01:13:04,760 Speaker 4: I don't know. 1511 01:13:04,800 --> 01:13:10,880 Speaker 21: Look, the sudden resignation of long serving farmers Federated Farmer's 1512 01:13:10,960 --> 01:13:13,760 Speaker 21: chief executive Terry Copeland. As we were heading to that 1513 01:13:13,880 --> 01:13:18,800 Speaker 21: conference on Monday, we got word that he's resigned and 1514 01:13:18,840 --> 01:13:23,280 Speaker 21: he's stepping down from his role this Friday, ie tomorrow. Wow, 1515 01:13:23,600 --> 01:13:26,200 Speaker 21: that's not really normal practice. I don't know what the 1516 01:13:26,200 --> 01:13:28,799 Speaker 21: hell's going on there, but we'll give him the benefit 1517 01:13:28,840 --> 01:13:32,799 Speaker 21: of the doubt. He's done some good things at Federated Farmers. 1518 01:13:32,800 --> 01:13:34,800 Speaker 21: He's the guy who came up with the idea of 1519 01:13:34,840 --> 01:13:40,080 Speaker 21: this industry summit and the primary industry awards, the Rural Oscars. 1520 01:13:40,120 --> 01:13:42,320 Speaker 21: If you want so, he's gone. And in the meantime, 1521 01:13:42,560 --> 01:13:45,200 Speaker 21: in another strange move, if you ask me, FEDS might 1522 01:13:45,320 --> 01:13:48,320 Speaker 21: black blackball me here and maybe not talk to me 1523 01:13:48,400 --> 01:13:50,360 Speaker 21: for speaking out of turn here, but they've chucked in 1524 01:13:50,720 --> 01:13:54,679 Speaker 21: Wayne Langford, the affable president of Federated Farmers, to act 1525 01:13:55,680 --> 01:13:58,880 Speaker 21: as the acting chief executive. So trouble at Mill. 1526 01:13:59,120 --> 01:14:00,800 Speaker 2: Well, it sounds like is this some sort of a 1527 01:14:00,800 --> 01:14:02,479 Speaker 2: clear out going on here or something like that? 1528 01:14:03,200 --> 01:14:04,880 Speaker 5: Well, I honestly don't know. 1529 01:14:04,960 --> 01:14:06,960 Speaker 2: I mean, do we connect some dots here? 1530 01:14:08,479 --> 01:14:09,160 Speaker 5: I'm not sure. 1531 01:14:09,200 --> 01:14:11,559 Speaker 21: Maybe we're two and two equals five on this one here. 1532 01:14:11,800 --> 01:14:16,639 Speaker 21: But look, this is not new. Farmer politics has always 1533 01:14:16,640 --> 01:14:18,360 Speaker 21: been a bit of a brutal game. And you know, 1534 01:14:18,439 --> 01:14:20,960 Speaker 21: these guys are giving of their time. Guys and girls 1535 01:14:21,240 --> 01:14:23,960 Speaker 21: are giving of their time, and I think, I think, 1536 01:14:24,080 --> 01:14:27,280 Speaker 21: just like politicians, there's some ambitious people in there. 1537 01:14:27,600 --> 01:14:29,479 Speaker 2: Well yeah, I mean, a farmer's got an idea, a 1538 01:14:29,720 --> 01:14:32,320 Speaker 2: and they're pretty used to having an idea and executing it. 1539 01:14:32,320 --> 01:14:34,200 Speaker 2: And so if they see that something's wrong, I imagine 1540 01:14:34,200 --> 01:14:35,840 Speaker 2: they just want to fix it up, and therefore it 1541 01:14:35,840 --> 01:14:37,720 Speaker 2: moves quickly and I like that. Now, how did you 1542 01:14:37,760 --> 01:14:39,800 Speaker 2: go with those primary industry awards? Did you hand out 1543 01:14:39,840 --> 01:14:41,759 Speaker 2: gongs to everybody and then hit the beers afterwards? 1544 01:14:42,920 --> 01:14:45,400 Speaker 21: Well, I ended up getting stuck in a bar at 1545 01:14:45,400 --> 01:14:48,280 Speaker 21: one am with the EU Ambassador. 1546 01:14:47,680 --> 01:14:50,560 Speaker 5: To New Zealand, Lawrence Meredith. What a good blow key is. 1547 01:14:50,640 --> 01:14:53,519 Speaker 21: I hope he's not listening for me outing him, but 1548 01:14:54,240 --> 01:14:56,360 Speaker 21: I was them saying, so I didn't have to be 1549 01:14:56,400 --> 01:14:58,600 Speaker 21: at about eleven o'clock. You know what it's like, you 1550 01:14:58,640 --> 01:15:02,320 Speaker 21: need to unwind, can't go straight to bed. So now look, 1551 01:15:02,320 --> 01:15:06,200 Speaker 21: it was a really good evening just running through. Perhaps 1552 01:15:06,320 --> 01:15:08,200 Speaker 21: there was eight awards up. I want to single out 1553 01:15:08,280 --> 01:15:13,240 Speaker 21: four of them. The late Chris Allen, posthumously named rural hero, 1554 01:15:13,439 --> 01:15:16,920 Speaker 21: killed in a tragic farm accident last year. A very 1555 01:15:17,920 --> 01:15:22,679 Speaker 21: will mark this name down. Her name is Brady the Bickus. 1556 01:15:22,880 --> 01:15:26,240 Speaker 21: She won the Emerging Leader Award. She's being talked about 1557 01:15:26,280 --> 01:15:30,479 Speaker 21: already as a future leader of Federated Farmers, perhaps following 1558 01:15:30,520 --> 01:15:35,080 Speaker 21: in the footsteps of the first President, Katie Milne. The 1559 01:15:36,000 --> 01:15:42,280 Speaker 21: Lifetime Achievement Award or Outstanding Contributions should I say award 1560 01:15:42,320 --> 01:15:44,320 Speaker 21: went to an old maide of mine, Eric Roy. I 1561 01:15:44,400 --> 01:15:47,800 Speaker 21: know that Barry in particular, will know him very well. 1562 01:15:47,840 --> 01:15:51,080 Speaker 21: Served six terms as an MP, great bloke, sold of 1563 01:15:51,120 --> 01:15:53,519 Speaker 21: the earth bloke, and I want to mention doctor Robin Dines, 1564 01:15:53,520 --> 01:15:57,640 Speaker 21: another great Southlander. She won the primary Industries Champion. 1565 01:15:57,280 --> 01:15:59,640 Speaker 2: Award, fantastic and please you had a great time, and 1566 01:15:59,760 --> 01:16:01,720 Speaker 2: please you got a bear at the end of it. 1567 01:16:01,800 --> 01:16:05,280 Speaker 2: Jamie Jamie McKay, Host of the Country. Here that your 1568 01:16:05,360 --> 01:16:08,479 Speaker 2: opening statement yesterday read the leaked documents about the damage 1569 01:16:08,479 --> 01:16:10,880 Speaker 2: to Iran's nuclear facilities has pretty much been hit for 1570 01:16:10,920 --> 01:16:13,360 Speaker 2: six today. You should have fact checked at first, I think, Terry, 1571 01:16:13,400 --> 01:16:17,400 Speaker 2: thank you, Terry. Would you have how we're going to 1572 01:16:17,439 --> 01:16:20,720 Speaker 2: fly into Iran and just rock up there and have 1573 01:16:20,760 --> 01:16:22,640 Speaker 2: a look at how much damage was caused? Literally, no 1574 01:16:22,680 --> 01:16:25,000 Speaker 2: one can fact check it, which is why, which is 1575 01:16:25,000 --> 01:16:28,680 Speaker 2: why there is conflicting, conflicting versions of events, and it 1576 01:16:28,760 --> 01:16:32,120 Speaker 2: remains thus it is still conflicting. The head So the 1577 01:16:32,200 --> 01:16:35,160 Speaker 2: leaked report that came out said that the Iran nuclear 1578 01:16:35,240 --> 01:16:37,920 Speaker 2: program had only been pushed back a few months, right, 1579 01:16:38,240 --> 01:16:41,080 Speaker 2: The head of the CIA has since come out and said, actually, 1580 01:16:41,520 --> 01:16:45,240 Speaker 2: the Iran nuclear program has been probably set back by years. 1581 01:16:45,680 --> 01:16:50,040 Speaker 2: The US strikes did severely damage Iran's nuclear facilities. Donald 1582 01:16:50,120 --> 01:16:53,120 Speaker 2: Trump himself, I mean, he went big on it, right, 1583 01:16:53,160 --> 01:16:55,800 Speaker 2: He said it had been completely obliterated and blah blah blah. 1584 01:16:55,880 --> 01:16:59,680 Speaker 2: Now obliterated is different to severely damaged is different. To 1585 01:16:59,760 --> 01:17:03,240 Speaker 2: just damaged. So Donald Trump, who said there was abliteration 1586 01:17:03,520 --> 01:17:06,120 Speaker 2: himself wavered for a minute today he said the intelligence 1587 01:17:06,240 --> 01:17:09,880 Speaker 2: was very inconclusive, and then he changed his mind and 1588 01:17:09,920 --> 01:17:11,960 Speaker 2: then went back to saying, no, it was severe. It 1589 01:17:12,000 --> 01:17:16,880 Speaker 2: was total obliteration. Then, as if to kind of goodness me, 1590 01:17:17,160 --> 01:17:19,120 Speaker 2: as if to kind of double down, I suppose you 1591 01:17:19,120 --> 01:17:21,759 Speaker 2: could say, he called for the firing of the CNN 1592 01:17:21,800 --> 01:17:25,320 Speaker 2: correspondent who had originally reported on the leaked document. So 1593 01:17:25,400 --> 01:17:27,400 Speaker 2: all things have ended up. We've gone full circle and 1594 01:17:27,439 --> 01:17:29,400 Speaker 2: we're back to where we were before, which is the 1595 01:17:29,479 --> 01:17:31,800 Speaker 2: leak document is nonsense. People should be fired and it 1596 01:17:31,840 --> 01:17:34,240 Speaker 2: was complete obliteration six twenty one. 1597 01:17:34,600 --> 01:17:37,200 Speaker 1: If it's to do with money, it matters to you 1598 01:17:37,680 --> 01:17:41,160 Speaker 1: the business hour where the head of Duplicllen and theirs 1599 01:17:41,320 --> 01:17:45,800 Speaker 1: insurance and investments, grow your wealth, protect your future newstalks 1600 01:17:45,920 --> 01:17:47,160 Speaker 1: d be hither. 1601 01:17:47,200 --> 01:17:49,560 Speaker 2: The issue with the school Tea Kunger issue is is 1602 01:17:49,600 --> 01:17:52,599 Speaker 2: that that section was put into law by an activist Dardurn. Labor. 1603 01:17:52,600 --> 01:17:54,720 Speaker 2: Government and National said they would take that stuff out, 1604 01:17:54,720 --> 01:17:57,240 Speaker 2: and so did Act and New Zealand. First, Sarah make 1605 01:17:57,240 --> 01:17:58,760 Speaker 2: a very good point. This is where it's all about 1606 01:17:58,800 --> 01:18:02,280 Speaker 2: disappointment for people, isn't it now, I've got a twenty 1607 01:18:02,280 --> 01:18:04,360 Speaker 2: four past six.

It's Denny the Nerve, 1611 01:18:18,640 --> 01:18:22,920 Speaker 2: the Nerve, Denny the Nerve week on the French has 1612 01:18:22,960 --> 01:18:26,519 Speaker 2: got the job. He calls himself a die hard Bond fan, 1613 01:18:26,560 --> 01:18:29,200 Speaker 2: which is a good starting point, he said to me. 1614 01:18:29,880 --> 01:18:32,840 Speaker 2: Bonds Sacred Territory gave an interview a couple of years ago. 1615 01:18:32,960 --> 01:18:34,760 Speaker 2: Is asked about what you know, would he one day 1616 01:18:34,760 --> 01:18:37,360 Speaker 2: perhaps consider directing a Bond film, and this is what 1617 01:18:37,400 --> 01:18:37,800 Speaker 2: he said. 1618 01:18:37,960 --> 01:18:39,639 Speaker 1: The The answer would be a massive yes. 1619 01:18:40,040 --> 01:18:41,400 Speaker 18: It's a character that. 1620 01:18:42,800 --> 01:18:46,280 Speaker 9: I've been with like everybody, like since my childhood and 1621 01:18:46,439 --> 01:18:50,599 Speaker 9: it's like I am like massive affection for Bond. 1622 01:18:51,040 --> 01:18:53,200 Speaker 2: Now so far, so good, okay, because the guy is 1623 01:18:53,240 --> 01:18:57,439 Speaker 2: into it. The boss of Amazon MGM Studios, Mike Hopkins, 1624 01:18:57,439 --> 01:18:59,760 Speaker 2: said that Denny is a situ which you call him 1625 01:18:59,760 --> 01:19:04,120 Speaker 2: bosing name Dennis. Dennis is a cinematic master. James Bond 1626 01:19:04,200 --> 01:19:08,519 Speaker 2: is in the hand. Well, I'm speaking English and his 1627 01:19:08,600 --> 01:19:12,439 Speaker 2: name is written den I s He is now called Dennis, 1628 01:19:13,880 --> 01:19:18,760 Speaker 2: So Dennis Dennis.

Now. The reason that ANTS is saying 1632 01:19:27,120 --> 01:19:29,600 Speaker 2: nobody calls him Dennis is because you know who he is, 1633 01:19:29,640 --> 01:19:30,240 Speaker 2: don't you answer? 1634 01:19:30,240 --> 01:19:33,000 Speaker 22: It's anything nerve as a genius. I'm actually going to 1635 01:19:33,040 --> 01:19:34,280 Speaker 22: see this movie just because of this. 1636 01:19:34,439 --> 01:19:35,280 Speaker 2: Okay, because he did. 1637 01:19:35,720 --> 01:19:38,679 Speaker 22: He did Sacario, which is amazing. He did Arrival, which 1638 01:19:38,720 --> 01:19:40,840 Speaker 22: was quite good.

We know 1642 01:19:48,080 --> 01:19:51,120 Speaker 2: him for the Dune movies, Ants, and he's got eight 1643 01:19:51,280 --> 01:19:54,000 Speaker 2: oscars as a result of that. His appointment is part 1644 01:19:54,040 --> 01:19:55,960 Speaker 2: of a wider shakeup, and this is why we care. 1645 01:19:56,080 --> 01:19:57,880 Speaker 2: This is why we started off talking about the Bond 1646 01:19:57,920 --> 01:19:59,559 Speaker 2: ro because his appointment is part of a wider shakeup 1647 01:19:59,600 --> 01:20:03,559 Speaker 2: of the Bond franchise. Because old mate Barbara Broccoli, she 1648 01:20:03,680 --> 01:20:05,919 Speaker 2: and that the others gave Care out of control to Amazon. 1649 01:20:06,080 --> 01:20:08,439 Speaker 2: MGM Studios in a deal right which cost about a 1650 01:20:08,439 --> 01:20:11,400 Speaker 2: billion dollars, And part of that was that the next 1651 01:20:11,479 --> 01:20:15,719 Speaker 2: James Bond actor will be a man. He will likely 1652 01:20:15,760 --> 01:20:18,960 Speaker 2: be in his thirties. Whiteness is not a given, so 1653 01:20:19,040 --> 01:20:22,400 Speaker 2: it's going to be what's his name, Eldrit, what's his name? 1654 01:20:22,479 --> 01:20:22,960 Speaker 22: Dress Alwer? 1655 01:20:23,080 --> 01:20:26,720 Speaker 2: Thank you him because he's very handsome, and I mean 1656 01:20:26,760 --> 01:20:30,280 Speaker 2: he's not what's that beaty? Yeah, as I was thinking, 1657 01:20:30,320 --> 01:20:32,479 Speaker 2: he's not in his thirties, is he? He's sort of 1658 01:20:32,479 --> 01:20:36,559 Speaker 2: in his early forties. I mean, who's handsome? Who cares? 1659 01:20:36,680 --> 01:20:39,360 Speaker 2: They can do a lot with makeup nowadays. He's fifty two. 1660 01:20:39,600 --> 01:20:41,400 Speaker 2: So it's not gonna be him. It's gonna be somebody else. 1661 01:20:41,400 --> 01:20:43,479 Speaker 2: But at least look at least Bond is not going 1662 01:20:43,560 --> 01:20:45,320 Speaker 2: to be a lady, because I think we can all 1663 01:20:45,360 --> 01:20:49,040 Speaker 2: agree that that would be ridiculous. Anyway, listen, very quickly, 1664 01:20:49,160 --> 01:20:51,599 Speaker 2: speaking of speaking of love affairs, things of the heart. 1665 01:20:52,000 --> 01:20:55,920 Speaker 2: Online dating is not doing very well. This is according 1666 01:20:55,920 --> 01:20:59,320 Speaker 2: to Bumble Bumbles. You know how you've got the tinder 1667 01:20:59,320 --> 01:21:01,400 Speaker 2: and the grinder, which is kind of a basic.

Bumble is 1670 01:21:05,040 --> 01:21:07,479 Speaker 2: laying off two hundred and forty employees, are roughly thirty 1671 01:21:07,520 --> 01:21:09,960 Speaker 2: percent of its global workforce. They need to find forty 1672 01:21:10,000 --> 01:21:13,160 Speaker 2: million dollars US and annual cost the most recent first 1673 01:21:13,200 --> 01:21:16,400 Speaker 2: quarter earnings, Bumble reported a total revenue of about two 1674 01:21:16,520 --> 01:21:19,080 Speaker 2: hundred and forty seven million dollars US. That's down nearly 1675 01:21:19,120 --> 01:21:22,000 Speaker 2: eight percent from the same period a year ago. Now, 1676 01:21:22,080 --> 01:21:24,759 Speaker 2: I don't know what is going on with the online dating, 1677 01:21:25,800 --> 01:21:28,160 Speaker 2: but I do have some friends who do this, and 1678 01:21:28,439 --> 01:21:31,479 Speaker 2: what appears to be happening is that people it kind 1679 01:21:31,520 --> 01:21:33,280 Speaker 2: of it was a bit eck for a while there 1680 01:21:33,280 --> 01:21:35,479 Speaker 2: in the sort of like two thousand, early two thousands. 1681 01:21:35,520 --> 01:21:37,880 Speaker 2: Maybe then it became okay and everybody did it, and 1682 01:21:37,920 --> 01:21:40,360 Speaker 2: it's kind of starting to People are over it now. 1683 01:21:40,680 --> 01:21:42,760 Speaker 2: And maybe that's part of the problem with Bumble, is 1684 01:21:42,800 --> 01:21:45,160 Speaker 2: that we tried the online dating and then we found 1685 01:21:45,160 --> 01:21:47,240 Speaker 2: out we just really didn't like it very much.

And if you're not sure whether you're going 1694 01:22:20,920 --> 01:22:23,959 Speaker 2: to be affected by this fifteen fifteen story building nonsense. 1695 01:22:24,040 --> 01:22:26,479 Speaker 2: The Herald's just chucked the map, an interactive map up 1696 01:22:26,520 --> 01:22:28,320 Speaker 2: on the site. Go and have a look and you'll 1697 01:22:28,320 --> 01:22:32,880 Speaker 2: find out. Trump is considering, apparently this is reporting from 1698 01:22:32,920 --> 01:22:35,360 Speaker 2: the Wall Street Journal, is considering naming the next FED 1699 01:22:35,439 --> 01:22:38,479 Speaker 2: chair early in a bid to undermine Jerome Powell. He's 1700 01:22:38,479 --> 01:22:41,479 Speaker 2: called Drome Powell terrible. In his latest attack, he said 1701 01:22:41,479 --> 01:22:43,280 Speaker 2: he's got three or four people in mind as contenders 1702 01:22:43,320 --> 01:22:47,480 Speaker 2: for the top FED job, apparently Fed Governor Kevin Walsh, 1703 01:22:47,600 --> 01:22:51,599 Speaker 2: National Economic Council head Kevin Hassett, FED current FED Governor 1704 01:22:51,720 --> 01:22:56,639 Speaker 2: Christopher Waller Waller, and Treasury Secretary Scot Percent twenty four 1705 01:22:56,680 --> 01:23:00,000 Speaker 2: away from seven. Sam Dickey is with us from Fisher Funds. Hello, Sam, 1706 01:23:00,520 --> 01:23:02,599 Speaker 2: good evening here, right, Let's talk about Nike, because, as 1707 01:23:02,600 --> 01:23:05,080 Speaker 2: he points out, Nike has has had its stock plumb 1708 01:23:05,080 --> 01:23:07,759 Speaker 2: at sixty eight percent from its peaks about November twenty 1709 01:23:07,760 --> 01:23:10,439 Speaker 2: twenty one is a textbook fallen angel. What's gone wrong here? 1710 01:23:11,960 --> 01:23:12,200 Speaker 3: Well? 1711 01:23:12,320 --> 01:23:13,640 Speaker 5: John Donaho. 1712 01:23:13,720 --> 01:23:16,000 Speaker 23: He was the CEO that came in about five years 1713 01:23:16,000 --> 01:23:20,720 Speaker 23: ago in twenty twenty, and he pretty quickly shifted Nike's focus. So, 1714 01:23:21,840 --> 01:23:23,479 Speaker 23: as you probably know, it used to be all about 1715 01:23:23,479 --> 01:23:27,040 Speaker 23: having sported its course, so organizing itself around megasports like basketball, 1716 01:23:27,080 --> 01:23:31,040 Speaker 23: running football, plus being very very visible in retail stores 1717 01:23:31,080 --> 01:23:34,400 Speaker 23: and using its power its might to elbow out all 1718 01:23:34,400 --> 01:23:38,000 Speaker 23: the wannabe brands off the best shelves. So he did 1719 01:23:38,000 --> 01:23:41,759 Speaker 23: a few things. He wanted to make the company more profitable, 1720 01:23:41,840 --> 01:23:44,160 Speaker 23: So he simplified the company's divisions by memorom and and 1721 01:23:44,240 --> 01:23:47,080 Speaker 23: kids rather than by sport, and he turned his back 1722 01:23:47,280 --> 01:23:49,439 Speaker 23: on the shoe shops and sports retailers to try and 1723 01:23:49,479 --> 01:23:52,120 Speaker 23: sell more products online, which on the face of it 1724 01:23:52,200 --> 01:23:56,800 Speaker 23: makes sense because you have a simpler divisional structure, you 1725 01:23:56,880 --> 01:24:00,320 Speaker 23: reduced a number of expensive sports specific designers, set a 1726 01:24:00,400 --> 01:24:03,400 Speaker 23: pain away profit to a retailer to sell your product. 1727 01:24:03,400 --> 01:24:05,679 Speaker 23: You keep that extra profit for yourself and sell directly 1728 01:24:05,720 --> 01:24:10,080 Speaker 23: off your website. But it backfired and Nike he lost 1729 01:24:10,120 --> 01:24:14,400 Speaker 23: its sports specific product innovation advantage. And what's worse, that 1730 01:24:14,600 --> 01:24:17,040 Speaker 23: shelf space it had freed up by turning its back 1731 01:24:17,080 --> 01:24:21,080 Speaker 23: on retailers was greedily gobbled up by smaller innovative brands 1732 01:24:21,120 --> 01:24:22,120 Speaker 23: like Hoker and On Running. 1733 01:24:22,439 --> 01:24:22,719 Speaker 5: Ah. 1734 01:24:22,920 --> 01:24:25,880 Speaker 2: And that's quite key, isn't it, Because because Hoker. Look 1735 01:24:26,160 --> 01:24:28,519 Speaker 2: at what's happened to Hoker lately, right, and you've got 1736 01:24:28,560 --> 01:24:30,200 Speaker 2: all of these because I mean, part of the story, 1737 01:24:30,240 --> 01:24:32,080 Speaker 2: as you say, is what's going on within the business, 1738 01:24:32,080 --> 01:24:34,000 Speaker 2: but part of it is also the pressure from the 1739 01:24:34,000 --> 01:24:37,320 Speaker 2: competitors like Hoker, like Lulu Lemon as well, isn't it. 1740 01:24:38,160 --> 01:24:38,559 Speaker 3: That's right? 1741 01:24:38,600 --> 01:24:41,920 Speaker 23: And they were able to use their mic previously to 1742 01:24:42,840 --> 01:24:44,720 Speaker 23: ensure they get all the best shelf space in it 1743 01:24:44,880 --> 01:24:48,120 Speaker 23: in a shoe shop for example, and when they turn 1744 01:24:48,200 --> 01:24:50,920 Speaker 23: their back on those retailers, that space was it greedily 1745 01:24:50,920 --> 01:24:54,040 Speaker 23: gobbled up. And ironically here that Hoker and On Running 1746 01:24:54,720 --> 01:24:57,040 Speaker 23: used the same strategy that Nike did back in the 1747 01:24:57,120 --> 01:24:59,400 Speaker 23: day to take on you know the big players back then, 1748 01:24:59,439 --> 01:25:05,479 Speaker 23: probably Addy as Converse, Puma, and used that really kind 1749 01:25:05,479 --> 01:25:10,599 Speaker 23: of sports specific product innovation, so really focusing on running shoes, 1750 01:25:10,640 --> 01:25:15,000 Speaker 23: really focusing on basketball shoes to beat at its own game. 1751 01:25:15,479 --> 01:25:18,439 Speaker 2: Now, look, I know retro is back, Sam, but do 1752 01:25:18,520 --> 01:25:21,600 Speaker 2: you think that maybe overly reliant on their retro styles? 1753 01:25:22,479 --> 01:25:25,519 Speaker 23: Yeah, Well, they had been super reliant on those mega brands. 1754 01:25:26,600 --> 01:25:28,920 Speaker 23: And look that that's part of that. So that the 1755 01:25:29,080 --> 01:25:32,000 Speaker 23: changing strategy and that reliance on those mega brands like R. 1756 01:25:32,120 --> 01:25:37,800 Speaker 23: Jordan's et cetera, which I guess sort of retro has 1757 01:25:37,840 --> 01:25:42,479 Speaker 23: punished the stock. So you know, inventory is every consumer 1758 01:25:42,520 --> 01:25:46,240 Speaker 23: product company's worst nightmare. And Nike's inventory shot up from 1759 01:25:46,280 --> 01:25:49,599 Speaker 23: five billion dollars to eight billion dollars because it couldn't 1760 01:25:49,600 --> 01:25:52,479 Speaker 23: sell enough product via it's new online strategy. Profit fell, 1761 01:25:52,600 --> 01:25:57,519 Speaker 23: cash flow almost halved, So not dire straits, but the 1762 01:25:57,600 --> 01:26:00,400 Speaker 23: company got itself into a materially worse position than was 1763 01:26:00,479 --> 01:26:02,719 Speaker 23: and hence, as you say, it fell sort of seventy 1764 01:26:02,720 --> 01:26:03,960 Speaker 23: percent in terms of stock price. 1765 01:26:04,040 --> 01:26:04,280 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1766 01:26:04,320 --> 01:26:06,160 Speaker 2: Now the thing that you would refer to is Nike's 1767 01:26:06,200 --> 01:26:09,439 Speaker 2: competitive moat. Is that still intact or is that gone forever? 1768 01:26:10,240 --> 01:26:14,360 Speaker 23: Well, that that is the number one question. And remember 1769 01:26:14,479 --> 01:26:17,200 Speaker 23: mote is a sustainable competitive advantage, like a motor around 1770 01:26:17,200 --> 01:26:20,200 Speaker 23: your business to ward off the ravages of competition. And 1771 01:26:20,439 --> 01:26:24,080 Speaker 23: Nike's moat is, of course it's incredibly powerful brand, but 1772 01:26:24,160 --> 01:26:27,439 Speaker 23: that brand is supported by its scale. So he used 1773 01:26:27,479 --> 01:26:30,280 Speaker 23: to support that brand with its scale by elbowing, you know, 1774 01:26:30,320 --> 01:26:33,800 Speaker 23: the wannabe hokers and on runnings off the shelves, but 1775 01:26:33,920 --> 01:26:36,519 Speaker 23: it also spends almost five billion a year on marketing 1776 01:26:36,560 --> 01:26:38,840 Speaker 23: and sponsoring the best athletes in the world and that 1777 01:26:38,960 --> 01:26:43,000 Speaker 23: hasn't changed. So they recently wrapped up Caitlan Clark the 1778 01:26:43,080 --> 01:26:46,719 Speaker 23: WNBA Sensation for about twenty eight million bucks, despite Puma 1779 01:26:46,840 --> 01:26:50,040 Speaker 23: adi Das Underarma or clamoring for attention. And I think 1780 01:26:50,080 --> 01:26:52,880 Speaker 23: it was Lebron James that describes it best. He could 1781 01:26:52,920 --> 01:26:55,400 Speaker 23: have gone with Rebok for one hundred and fifteen million dollars, 1782 01:26:55,760 --> 01:26:58,160 Speaker 23: but we were Nike for ninety million dollars because he 1783 01:26:58,200 --> 01:27:00,720 Speaker 23: went and saw them and was walking the hallways and 1784 01:27:00,720 --> 01:27:03,840 Speaker 23: sort life sized cutouts of Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods 1785 01:27:03,840 --> 01:27:05,800 Speaker 23: and realized he had to side with Nike. And the 1786 01:27:05,880 --> 01:27:08,400 Speaker 23: other thing is that the CEO, John Donna, who's now 1787 01:27:08,439 --> 01:27:11,759 Speaker 23: gone as well, so he's been replaced by Elliot Hill, 1788 01:27:11,840 --> 01:27:15,040 Speaker 23: who started at Nike in nineteen ninety eight, is an 1789 01:27:15,040 --> 01:27:18,360 Speaker 23: intern and he's changed course. He's steered the company back 1790 01:27:18,400 --> 01:27:21,800 Speaker 23: towards its course. So I think the moat is still there, 1791 01:27:21,880 --> 01:27:23,240 Speaker 23: it just needs to be fixed up. 1792 01:27:23,200 --> 01:27:26,080 Speaker 2: A bit interesting, Okay, So what does this mean for investors? 1793 01:27:26,080 --> 01:27:28,759 Speaker 2: What do they need to consider it's. 1794 01:27:28,600 --> 01:27:30,479 Speaker 23: A reminder of a few things. So of all the 1795 01:27:30,520 --> 01:27:34,120 Speaker 23: types of moats, so I think about cost advantages, customer 1796 01:27:34,160 --> 01:27:38,160 Speaker 23: switching costs, or even patents, brand can be the most 1797 01:27:38,200 --> 01:27:41,120 Speaker 23: fickle one, so a brand note mote needs to be 1798 01:27:41,160 --> 01:27:44,400 Speaker 23: well looked after which it wasn't under John Donahoe. And 1799 01:27:44,439 --> 01:27:47,240 Speaker 23: it's also a reminder I think for companies that hiring 1800 01:27:47,280 --> 01:27:50,120 Speaker 23: from the outside can be a risk. So John had 1801 01:27:50,160 --> 01:27:52,519 Speaker 23: been on the board of Nike, but he'd never kind 1802 01:27:52,560 --> 01:27:55,160 Speaker 23: of worked for Nike as an employee. He'd never lived 1803 01:27:55,200 --> 01:27:58,639 Speaker 23: and breathed on a daily basis what makes the place tech? 1804 01:27:58,680 --> 01:28:01,840 Speaker 23: And a new CEO was hired as an intern. That's 1805 01:28:01,880 --> 01:28:05,040 Speaker 23: almost thirty years ago. So that what is interesting, Heather, 1806 01:28:05,120 --> 01:28:06,799 Speaker 23: is the proof is going to be in the pudding 1807 01:28:06,920 --> 01:28:10,400 Speaker 23: because the company's reporting it's fully a result tomorrow. And 1808 01:28:10,840 --> 01:28:14,040 Speaker 23: one thing for sure is for sure sentiment is very bearish, 1809 01:28:14,200 --> 01:28:16,280 Speaker 23: which on the one hand, is very helpful because even 1810 01:28:16,280 --> 01:28:18,880 Speaker 23: a halfway decent result should see the stock price move higher. 1811 01:28:18,920 --> 01:28:24,000 Speaker 23: But if Nike misses earning the expectations significantly tomorrow and 1812 01:28:24,080 --> 01:28:27,040 Speaker 23: can't even get over the very low bar set by 1813 01:28:27,040 --> 01:28:29,760 Speaker 23: a seventy percent four in the stop price, perhaps that 1814 01:28:29,880 --> 01:28:33,280 Speaker 23: amazing brand mode is even more damage than the market thinks. 1815 01:28:33,479 --> 01:28:36,960 Speaker 2: Interesting. Okay, hey, thank you very much.

So good 1846 01:30:10,360 --> 01:30:12,280 Speaker 2: on you, and actually let's throw them off the sink 1847 01:30:12,320 --> 01:30:14,160 Speaker 2: a little bit. Let's let's have a complaint from the 1848 01:30:14,200 --> 01:30:17,720 Speaker 2: Nelson now from Tasman District and something from Canterbury as well, 1849 01:30:17,760 --> 01:30:19,240 Speaker 2: just to really mix things up a little bit. And 1850 01:30:19,320 --> 01:30:21,519 Speaker 2: I'll keep you posted. It is working. It is doing 1851 01:30:21,560 --> 01:30:24,320 Speaker 2: what it's supposed to sixteen away from seven, whether it's. 1852 01:30:24,280 --> 01:30:28,160 Speaker 1: Macro, micro or just plain economics, it's all on the 1853 01:30:28,240 --> 01:30:33,160 Speaker 1: Business Hour with Heather Duplicy, Ellen and Les Insurance and investments, 1854 01:30:33,360 --> 01:30:36,720 Speaker 1: Grow your wealth, protect your future, use talks v in. 1855 01:30:36,680 --> 01:30:38,799 Speaker 2: The Brady UK correspondents with us now, Hey. 1856 01:30:38,720 --> 01:30:41,120 Speaker 9: Enda, hey, Heather, good to speak to you again. 1857 01:30:41,200 --> 01:30:42,200 Speaker 2: Do we believe this pole? 1858 01:30:43,920 --> 01:30:47,200 Speaker 9: So this pole is putting Nigel Farage in Downing Street 1859 01:30:47,360 --> 01:30:49,680 Speaker 9: as Prime Minister. In four years time it would be 1860 01:30:49,680 --> 01:30:52,519 Speaker 9: a hung parliament. What I think is really shocking for 1861 01:30:52,600 --> 01:30:55,920 Speaker 9: Keir Starmer and indeed the leader of the Conservative Party, 1862 01:30:56,000 --> 01:30:59,960 Speaker 9: Cammy Badenoch, is just the extent to which they're politic 1863 01:31:00,360 --> 01:31:05,080 Speaker 9: support at constituency level across the UK has fallen away 1864 01:31:05,200 --> 01:31:09,120 Speaker 9: in a very short space of time. So Reform UK 1865 01:31:09,320 --> 01:31:13,960 Speaker 9: currently have five members of Parliament. This poll says if 1866 01:31:14,000 --> 01:31:16,479 Speaker 9: there was an election this week, Reform will be on 1867 01:31:16,520 --> 01:31:19,920 Speaker 9: two seven eight. That's how many seats they would win, 1868 01:31:20,280 --> 01:31:23,080 Speaker 9: two hundred and seventy eight. Labor would fall away to 1869 01:31:23,120 --> 01:31:25,920 Speaker 9: one hundred and seventy one and the Conservatives would drop 1870 01:31:26,000 --> 01:31:29,439 Speaker 9: down to forty six seats. They would be basically a 1871 01:31:29,600 --> 01:31:34,400 Speaker 9: minor political party. Now, if you add Labor and Conservatives together, 1872 01:31:35,200 --> 01:31:40,040 Speaker 9: they still wouldn't have as many seats as Reform It's 1873 01:31:40,439 --> 01:31:43,880 Speaker 9: a long way out from the next election four years out. 1874 01:31:44,120 --> 01:31:46,880 Speaker 9: But I think as we approach Keir Starmer's first anniversary 1875 01:31:46,880 --> 01:31:49,840 Speaker 9: and power next week, he needs to start sitting down 1876 01:31:49,880 --> 01:31:52,240 Speaker 9: with his people and working out how to tackle reform 1877 01:31:52,320 --> 01:31:54,759 Speaker 9: because they are running away with it in the polls. 1878 01:31:55,040 --> 01:31:58,120 Speaker 2: Okay, So I mean this could just be a I 1879 01:31:58,160 --> 01:32:02,000 Speaker 2: don't know, like a protest vote, a protest pole result. 1880 01:32:02,160 --> 01:32:04,519 Speaker 2: Does it actually people actually who are saying to the 1881 01:32:04,520 --> 01:32:07,000 Speaker 2: posters right now that they would vote for reform, will 1882 01:32:07,000 --> 01:32:08,600 Speaker 2: they actually walk into a rebellot booth and vote for 1883 01:32:08,640 --> 01:32:09,759 Speaker 2: reform in these numbers? 1884 01:32:10,880 --> 01:32:13,800 Speaker 9: All I can say anecdotally from people I've spoken to 1885 01:32:13,880 --> 01:32:17,400 Speaker 9: a summer barbecues and various different social events over the 1886 01:32:17,439 --> 01:32:21,479 Speaker 9: last few months, everyone is sick of the system. You've 1887 01:32:21,520 --> 01:32:25,160 Speaker 9: had two parties rule the UK for a century, Conservatives 1888 01:32:25,160 --> 01:32:28,960 Speaker 9: mostly and then Labor, and people have had enough. They 1889 01:32:28,960 --> 01:32:32,719 Speaker 9: think something has to change, and Farage seems to be 1890 01:32:33,120 --> 01:32:35,479 Speaker 9: right now flavor of the month. But as I say, 1891 01:32:35,600 --> 01:32:38,880 Speaker 9: we're forty eight months out from an election, so let's 1892 01:32:38,880 --> 01:32:41,599 Speaker 9: see what happens. But I think when it comes down 1893 01:32:41,640 --> 01:32:44,920 Speaker 9: to it, is he realistically going to change life for 1894 01:32:44,960 --> 01:32:47,639 Speaker 9: the better for many people in the UK and does 1895 01:32:47,720 --> 01:32:51,280 Speaker 9: reform have the political roots? You know how a political 1896 01:32:51,320 --> 01:32:55,680 Speaker 9: party needs various different departments, it needs really switched on 1897 01:32:55,760 --> 01:32:59,040 Speaker 9: people doing everything. I'm not sure they have that level 1898 01:32:59,080 --> 01:33:00,599 Speaker 9: of depth right now. 1899 01:33:00,880 --> 01:33:03,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, fair point. Now, how do you feel about all 1900 01:33:03,400 --> 01:33:06,320 Speaker 2: these leaders sucking up to Trump at the moment. 1901 01:33:07,479 --> 01:33:09,880 Speaker 9: Well, kir Starmer has led the way really. So there 1902 01:33:09,920 --> 01:33:12,160 Speaker 9: was a couple of big announcements we had. On the 1903 01:33:12,520 --> 01:33:14,719 Speaker 9: money side of things, we know Trump loves the deal. 1904 01:33:15,520 --> 01:33:17,960 Speaker 9: He's managed to convince the UK that it needs to 1905 01:33:18,000 --> 01:33:23,080 Speaker 9: buy American made F thirty five a fighter jets, twelve 1906 01:33:23,080 --> 01:33:26,439 Speaker 9: of them. An order has gone in yesterday, which are 1907 01:33:26,479 --> 01:33:29,439 Speaker 9: capable of carrying nuclear weapons. So Starmer says that is 1908 01:33:29,800 --> 01:33:33,120 Speaker 9: something that the UK needs are Right now, the UK 1909 01:33:33,160 --> 01:33:36,519 Speaker 9: can only fire nuclear missiles from a submarine, so he 1910 01:33:36,600 --> 01:33:40,080 Speaker 9: wants to broaden out the capabilities there. And then secondly, 1911 01:33:40,880 --> 01:33:44,080 Speaker 9: the state visit, which I was briefed will happen in 1912 01:33:44,120 --> 01:33:47,519 Speaker 9: twenty twenty six, if not twenty seven, is now being 1913 01:33:47,760 --> 01:33:51,519 Speaker 9: brought forward to this September. Wow, because Trump wants it 1914 01:33:51,600 --> 01:33:56,080 Speaker 9: as soon as so. He's a very transactional president, we 1915 01:33:56,120 --> 01:33:59,960 Speaker 9: know that much. And he is ringing everything every last 1916 01:34:00,240 --> 01:34:03,400 Speaker 9: drop out of the UK right now, and Starmer seems 1917 01:34:03,400 --> 01:34:05,880 Speaker 9: to be the only person in Europe who has any 1918 01:34:05,960 --> 01:34:08,879 Speaker 9: kind of a decent relationship with him. It's absolutely fascinating. 1919 01:34:08,880 --> 01:34:10,599 Speaker 2: And I don't know Mark Rutter does now that he's 1920 01:34:10,600 --> 01:34:11,280 Speaker 2: called himdaddy. 1921 01:34:12,600 --> 01:34:15,200 Speaker 9: Yeah, that's the level we've got to. They have to 1922 01:34:15,200 --> 01:34:18,040 Speaker 9: sit down with the President of America and call him 1923 01:34:18,120 --> 01:34:21,920 Speaker 9: daddy to have his ear. I mean, honestly, I've never 1924 01:34:22,040 --> 01:34:25,040 Speaker 9: seen such what's the word obsequiousness, Yeah. 1925 01:34:24,800 --> 01:34:26,680 Speaker 2: That's the perfect word for it.
