News Talks Heavy. 4 00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:13,320 Speaker 2: Afternoon. 5 00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:15,560 Speaker 3: Welcome to the show. Coming up today, just another day 6 00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:17,600 Speaker 3: at why Tan. Yeah, the Prime Minister has been booed 7 00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:19,400 Speaker 3: when he's got himself riled up. We're going to go 8 00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:22,520 Speaker 3: to our reporter to get the latest Wellington water. Will 9 00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:24,599 Speaker 3: talk us through whether they actually had a warning that 10 00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:27,120 Speaker 3: this plant, the poop plant and Wellington was a problem, 11 00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:30,360 Speaker 3: and should in the cargo spend two million dollars on 12 00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:34,240 Speaker 3: a new clock tower together? Do for c Ellen, here's 13 00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:36,559 Speaker 3: a question for you. Was your first reaction to the 14 00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:39,320 Speaker 3: news of that sewage pumping into Wellington's water something along 15 00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:41,640 Speaker 3: the lines of, oh, well, I suppose these kinds of 16 00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:45,080 Speaker 3: things happen. Now, I'm asking you because I've been fighting 17 00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:47,080 Speaker 3: the urge for the last twenty four hours to simply 18 00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:49,720 Speaker 3: waive this one away as one of those unfortunate, unforeseen 19 00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:52,040 Speaker 3: things that just happened from time to time, you know, 20 00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:55,480 Speaker 3: mistakes happen. I'm very glad that I did resist the urge, 21 00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:57,520 Speaker 3: because the latest news on it is actually that this 22 00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 3: facility at more Point is run by a private comp 23 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:03,600 Speaker 3: tract of Veolia, and there have been years of warnings 24 00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:07,000 Speaker 3: that it was non compliant. Since January twenty twenty six, 25 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:11,160 Speaker 3: two years ago, it has been non compliant every single 26 00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:15,280 Speaker 3: month except for two. That's a pretty poor rate. Issues 27 00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 3: have included discharges that shouldn't have happened. Issues have included 28 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:21,800 Speaker 3: odor problems and multiple issues with po bacteria. A review 29 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:23,240 Speaker 3: three years ago had to look at all the water 30 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:25,360 Speaker 3: treatment plants the slot runs about four of them across 31 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:29,160 Speaker 3: the Wellington region. Found understaffing, inexperienced operators, in the fact 32 00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:32,160 Speaker 3: that frontline teams were basically being forced to deal with 33 00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:36,039 Speaker 3: complex problems all by themselves without any executive help. Now, 34 00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:39,160 Speaker 3: given that we don't actually know what exactly went wrong 35 00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:41,960 Speaker 3: with the pipe yesterday, we don't know if the warnings 36 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:44,560 Speaker 3: were related to what went wrong, as if had we 37 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:47,160 Speaker 3: acted on the warnings, this mightn't have happened. We don't know. 38 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 3: But clearly what was happening anyway wasn't good enough. And 39 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:53,440 Speaker 3: so what it brings me to is mine, mine, ours 40 00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:57,560 Speaker 3: everybody's default reaction, which is to give councils a free pass. 41 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,160 Speaker 3: I don't know why we do that. I suspect we 42 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:02,640 Speaker 3: do it because actually we're pretty fair minded people in 43 00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:06,160 Speaker 3: this country. We try to accommodate other people's errors. Counsels 44 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 3: maybe also counsels are a monopoly. If we don't like 45 00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:11,400 Speaker 3: what they do, we've really got nowhere else to go. 46 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 3: So what's the point in getting upset about it? So 47 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:16,760 Speaker 3: what our reaction is simply to increasingly lower our standards 48 00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:20,360 Speaker 3: to meet councils crappy standards. But really we shouldn't do that. 49 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 3: Wellingtonians should be angry about this, as should the residents 50 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 3: of the Christ of Christ Church about their Bromley stench, 51 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:29,280 Speaker 3: which has been going on for years now. Voting, as 52 00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:31,600 Speaker 3: we know, for more competent people is probably not going 53 00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 3: to fix this problem and never does. Probably all that 54 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:37,480 Speaker 3: is left for Wellingtonians and everybody else and the media 55 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 3: is to get cross and then shame the councils and 56 00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 3: shame their contractors into doing better. 57 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:47,120 Speaker 1: Forgever dup c Allen, nineteen nineteen. 58 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:49,639 Speaker 3: The text understand a text fees apply And as I say, Nick, 59 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 3: leg it's Wellington water chair with us on that alf 60 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:54,960 Speaker 3: the five o'clock right. Do you remember the petition from 61 00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 3: locals to save the Chateau tong Lerero. We've got the 62 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:02,240 Speaker 3: government response now the Department of Conservation to consider steps 63 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 3: to do up the chateau, but it might still bowl. 64 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:08,200 Speaker 3: The thing watching developments is Stuart Barclay, who's the owner 65 00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 3: of a drift tigeted or guiding in with us now, 66 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:10,960 Speaker 3: Hi Stewart. 67 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:11,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, Hi Heather. 68 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:14,360 Speaker 3: Are you taking heart from this response from the government. 69 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, absolutely, it's any news with regard to not pulling 70 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:22,239 Speaker 4: it down as good news. 71 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 3: So what exactly do you think has changed since the 72 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 3: like what is the government saying and doing now that 73 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 3: it is different to what they were saying and doing 74 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:32,480 Speaker 3: before the petition? 75 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 4: Well, I think the petition has had a big impact. 76 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:40,880 Speaker 4: Fifteen people. I think it is roughly that sign the 77 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 4: petition and is quite a significant statement. And that's one thing. Also, 78 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 4: the Hdow Tongurero is a major tourism icon in the 79 00:03:56,280 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 4: area and very important for tourism. Tourism at the moment 80 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 4: is one of the positives that New Zealanders has for 81 00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 4: its economy. They're a Payu region is not doing very 82 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 4: well and it thrives on tourism and it would be 83 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:19,360 Speaker 4: a great asset for this region for employment to have 84 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:25,160 Speaker 4: something like that iconic building reinstated and drawing people down 85 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 4: here to have weddings and enjoy the ski season and 86 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 4: the summer hiking out of the Tangario. 87 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:33,200 Speaker 3: Okay, now I agree with you on all of that, 88 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:36,479 Speaker 3: but I reckon, I worry they're stringing you along. Is 89 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:37,120 Speaker 3: that possible? 90 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,280 Speaker 4: So you think they what I worry. 91 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:41,760 Speaker 3: The government's just stringing you along here? 92 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 4: Well, yeah, they might be. And you know, when we're 93 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 4: not in control of this, the government are, and they 94 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 4: have got limited funds. You know, they are busy really 95 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 4: trying to make the balance sheet work. And this is 96 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 4: not in the s on one side of it, but 97 00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:06,280 Speaker 4: it is essential for tourism, and tourism is bringing money in. 98 00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:08,040 Speaker 4: So if they look at it in a positive way 99 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 4: and say, yeah, if we invest money in this, we 100 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 4: will get an amazing amount of tourism because of it, 101 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 4: and that will help employment. Employments at its highest at 102 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 4: the moment, unemployment and it's highest. So you know this 103 00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:24,680 Speaker 4: the shadow I think employs you know, almost one hundred 104 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 4: people when it's going forward. So there's a lot of 105 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 4: people in the local environment. 106 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:30,279 Speaker 3: Hey, what do you reckon, Stu, It do you reckon 107 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:32,280 Speaker 3: that people will come and stay in the Shadow if 108 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:34,039 Speaker 3: it just gets a little bit of a facelift, Like, 109 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:37,160 Speaker 3: is that all it needs or does it need some 110 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,360 Speaker 3: other jazzy little things to happen there as well? 111 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 4: You know, I don't know, but I'm no builder. 112 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 3: Occupancy before it was shut, Like, was it getting a 113 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:48,360 Speaker 3: lot of people? 114 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:49,280 Speaker 2: Oh? 115 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 4: Huge, huge occupancy. Really, it was fantastic. It was an 116 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 4: iconic kind of destination tourism venue. Weddings would be held 117 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:03,360 Speaker 4: here and overseas. Tourists would come and book the Shadow 118 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:06,599 Speaker 4: and stay one or two or three nights, So it 119 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 4: was absolutely iconic. 120 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:11,640 Speaker 3: All it needs is like obviously the earthquake strengthening, but 121 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:12,920 Speaker 3: then just to be tarted. 122 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 5: Up a bit. 123 00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:17,719 Speaker 4: Well, yeah, it needs to be obviously safe. But the 124 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,840 Speaker 4: longer I think it's been dormant now for about three years. 125 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:24,720 Speaker 4: The plumbing and the electrical work from what I hear 126 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:28,720 Speaker 4: on the ground in the local area is I think 127 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:31,840 Speaker 4: they had to employ a permanent electrician and a plumber 128 00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:35,600 Speaker 4: and that can't be getting any can't be getting repaired. 129 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 4: Was it's been dormant, so there are ongoing issues. I 130 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:42,920 Speaker 4: think a lot of the rooms needed refurbishing. So yeah, 131 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,560 Speaker 4: but that is a bit of lipstick. But yes, I 132 00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:48,159 Speaker 4: just don't know what the cost is to make it safe. 133 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,719 Speaker 4: And that you know this horrendous figures being chucked around 134 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:54,239 Speaker 4: by the earthquake people saying it has to be earthquake proof. 135 00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:57,599 Speaker 3: All right, Hey, listen Stewart, I really appreciated Stuart Barclay, 136 00:06:57,600 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 3: the owner of a drift tout ittle guiding. I hope 137 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:01,800 Speaker 3: they're not string the locals along. And I just wonder, 138 00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:03,800 Speaker 3: I just wonder if I'm having another look at those 139 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 3: earthquake strengthening rules, which was happening last year, remember that 140 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 3: was announced. If that might actually bring the cost of 141 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 3: strengthening the thing down, might save it. Yet now JD. Varnes, 142 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 3: as in the VP over in the US, has laid 143 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 3: out some pretty clearly. It's given a very very clear 144 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:22,880 Speaker 3: understanding of what it is that the US wants with 145 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 3: US and others. Read the critical minerals he's spoken about 146 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 3: this basically said we want members to form a trading 147 00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 3: block amongst allies and partners, one that guarantees American access 148 00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:38,119 Speaker 3: to American industrial goods. Basically simply at what is simply 149 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 3: happening at the moment is that the Chinese have got 150 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:44,200 Speaker 3: a stranglehold on these minerals. The Americans want these minerals, 151 00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 3: and frankly, do you know what I would say, because 152 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 3: Luxo keeps talking about how we've got to do things 153 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 3: in our brutal best interests, well, just sell it to 154 00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:54,120 Speaker 3: whoever's going to pay the highest That's what might be doing. 155 00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 3: Quarter past. 156 00:07:56,720 --> 00:08:00,200 Speaker 1: It's the Heather Dupissy Alan Drive Full Show podcast on 157 00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 1: iHeartRadio powered by News Talk ZB. 158 00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:07,400 Speaker 3: Here the rear Wellington water If that was a farmer, 159 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 3: million dollar fines and possibly jail time, the non compliances farcical, 160 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:14,560 Speaker 3: which actually maybe that's the solution to start finding the 161 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 3: hell out of these people, I suppose, which I think 162 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 3: is actually an option potentially eighteen past four Sports. 163 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 1: With generate celebrating great performances in sport and key we 164 00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 1: saber against. 165 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 3: Darcy water Grave sports talk hosters with us now high dars. 166 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 6: Greetings, Heather, Right, so we've actually, I mean. 167 00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:32,680 Speaker 3: The Winter Olympics is kicking off. It it's some Yeah, 168 00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:34,440 Speaker 3: it never really has the kind of build up of 169 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:36,160 Speaker 3: excitement that the Summer Olympics has a. 170 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:39,440 Speaker 6: I think that had a lot of people don't engage 171 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 6: in snow sport. Here there's a small amount of characters 172 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 6: that do, but I don't think it's widespread, which you'd 173 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:51,120 Speaker 6: understand why that's not the engagement there is once it starts, 174 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:53,760 Speaker 6: so like most major events, and you jail on start 175 00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:57,480 Speaker 6: meddling or meaning on the podium, there's a lot more interesting. 176 00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 6: So there's a heavy concentration and plainly anti Tanjuanicas. A 177 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:04,959 Speaker 6: lot of people are engaged in it, and I suppose 178 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:08,080 Speaker 6: some awkleas Wellington's hit the Middle and snowball or ski 179 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:10,760 Speaker 6: every now and then, but I understand why it's not 180 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:15,760 Speaker 6: really that vital in people's sport viewing, and it's in 181 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:18,280 Speaker 6: the middle of the night, so it's not entirely helpful. 182 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 6: But New Zealand's got a very good team and the 183 00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 6: Zealand have a chance of breaking their metal record over 184 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:29,839 Speaker 6: in Italy, so why wouldn't you And it's spectacular to 185 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:32,440 Speaker 6: watch if you know what you're watching for. 186 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 4: Listen. 187 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:35,600 Speaker 3: I saw last night on the TV news David Nyuka 188 00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:38,040 Speaker 3: has weighed in on this controversy going on in boxing 189 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:43,320 Speaker 3: New Zealand. Now, even if the allegations seem a little 190 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 3: on the flimsy side, and no one's providing any receipts. 191 00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 3: Just the sheer number of boxes and coaches who have 192 00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:52,840 Speaker 3: something to say here surely says something is wrong. 193 00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 6: Yeah, if there's noise, it's come from somewhere. It doesn't 194 00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:59,839 Speaker 6: just get made out, made up by people. When you 195 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 6: start looking at the first brick to go, then suddenly 196 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:06,600 Speaker 6: everybody gets in bold and they climb on in. And 197 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 6: when someone the level of David Nika, I mean, this 198 00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:12,560 Speaker 6: guy's got an Olympic bronze, he's picked up a couple 199 00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:15,000 Speaker 6: of Colmwealth golds. He's a pro now, so he probably 200 00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 6: doesn't care, but he does because these there's mates. This 201 00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:20,920 Speaker 6: is as fun and these are the people that he's 202 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 6: boxed with, and he looks well, they look up toward 203 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 6: him with what he's done, so he feels obliged to 204 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 6: come in and say something. He reckons it's been a 205 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 6: disarray for a long time, and it leaves a bad 206 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 6: taste in his mouth. So you start looking at a 207 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:40,480 Speaker 6: guy like Nieka, who doesn't have to, but he does 208 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:45,080 Speaker 6: say something terms like disarray for a long time, your 209 00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:48,840 Speaker 6: ears prick up. Now the Sport Integrity Commissioner looking into this, 210 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 6: and I'm sure they'll be very interested in talking to 211 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:55,360 Speaker 6: David if they haven't already in the space popular sport, 212 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 6: So it's an Olympic sport for how long? But people 213 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:01,320 Speaker 6: want to I want to find out more about it. 214 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 3: When Robbo's on the show tonight, Are you going to 215 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,640 Speaker 3: ask Robbo who he thinks the next New Zealand coaches 216 00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:06,280 Speaker 3: for the All Blacks? 217 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 7: Of course I am. 218 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 6: Do you think he's going to answer? 219 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:09,400 Speaker 3: Probably not. 220 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 6: I would say the answer will be something along the lines. 221 00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:21,080 Speaker 6: It's not really in my realm, you know. I can't really. 222 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 3: Deeply embarrassing what has happened for him, right because in 223 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:26,439 Speaker 3: comes the new guy and just clear's house on the 224 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 3: last the last significant thing that Robert Robbo did, which 225 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:30,240 Speaker 3: was to put Razor in. 226 00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:33,160 Speaker 6: To be fair, the house was pretty cleared before that. 227 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:37,680 Speaker 6: They started losing high performance people early doors, so it 228 00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 6: was it was skeletal. It wasn't fleshed out at all. 229 00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:43,479 Speaker 6: I don't know if he'd be embarrassed. 230 00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 3: He should be embarrassed, mostly stuffed that art. 231 00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 6: They'd be more relieved than anything to be out of here.

I feel like, if I had to 341 00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:32,240 Speaker 3: cast might just have a think about the mayors in 342 00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:36,600 Speaker 3: New Zealand, I'd say Wayne Brown is probably I would 343 00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:39,720 Speaker 3: say he'd probably do that. Andrew Little has definitely got 344 00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:42,280 Speaker 3: it in him yet to do it, obviously very early 345 00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 3: in his tenure. But let's see how it goes. I mean, 346 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:47,600 Speaker 3: both of those seem like pretty good mayors you could 347 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:50,000 Speaker 3: rely on to do that. Barrissopa, by the way, as 348 00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:51,440 Speaker 3: back from White Tongue will be a thus and ten 349 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:53,280 Speaker 3: minutes time, twenty four away from five. 350 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:56,920 Speaker 1: It's the world wires on news talks. They'd be drive. 351 00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:59,880 Speaker 3: UK Prime Minister Kirs Starmer has agreed to release them 352 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:03,000 Speaker 3: andalson files. Now, these are the documents about the process 353 00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:06,120 Speaker 3: to appoint Lord Mandelsson, who we now know is really 354 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:09,160 Speaker 3: good mates with Jeffrey Epstein as Britain's ambassador to the US. 355 00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:11,360 Speaker 3: He has been copying it in the House of Commons. 356 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:17,040 Speaker 16: How can we trust the Prime Minister's judgment? And in 357 00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:21,360 Speaker 16: questioning that, how can we trust him to remain as 358 00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:22,040 Speaker 16: Prime Minister? 359 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:26,560 Speaker 17: Mandleson lied throughout the process and beyond the process. 360 00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:30,160 Speaker 1: The lie delied and he lied again to my team. 361 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:34,320 Speaker 3: Over in the States, American TV presenter Savannah Guthrie has 362 00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:36,440 Speaker 3: made a public appeal to her mother's kidnapper to make 363 00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:39,400 Speaker 3: contact with the family. Eighty four year old Nancy Guthrie 364 00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:41,879 Speaker 3: was reported missing last week, and police suspect that she 365 00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:44,480 Speaker 3: was abducted. Here Savannah. 366 00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:49,199 Speaker 18: We need to know without a doubt that she is 367 00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:52,000 Speaker 18: a lie and that you have her. 368 00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:56,520 Speaker 1: We want to hear from you, and we are ready 369 00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 1: to listen. 370 00:17:57,520 --> 00:17:59,720 Speaker 3: The clues to the abduction with the ransom notes that 371 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:04,600 Speaker 3: were delivered a couple of days ago. And finally, the 372 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:07,359 Speaker 3: loover says that the crown of Impress Eugenie will be 373 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:09,480 Speaker 3: fully restored. Now this is the crown that the thieves 374 00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:11,720 Speaker 3: grabbed during last year's Louve heist. You'll remember that they 375 00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:13,560 Speaker 3: dropped the crown during their escape, and it's now in 376 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:16,800 Speaker 3: quite a state. Loove staff have thoroughly examined the thing 377 00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:20,000 Speaker 3: and they reckon though it is badly deformed, they can 378 00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:22,640 Speaker 3: return it to its original state without any reconstruction. 379 00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:27,200 Speaker 1: International correspondence with ends and Eye Insurance, peace of mind 380 00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:29,960 Speaker 1: for New Zealand business and out. 381 00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:32,760 Speaker 3: Of Australia, we have with us. Murray Olds, our correspondent, Heymas. 382 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:34,480 Speaker 11: I'm very good afternoon, Heather. 383 00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:36,480 Speaker 3: So Pauline Hanson is going to come to the rescue 384 00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:37,560 Speaker 3: of the coalition. 385 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:37,439 Speaker 4: Is is she? 386 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:41,359 Speaker 11: Well? This is almost inevitable. This is playing out like 387 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:45,400 Speaker 11: you know, Days of our Lives or something. Pauline Hanson, 388 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 11: you know she's twenty five year, thirty year veteran in 389 00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:52,040 Speaker 11: federal politics, and she is proposing a right wing coalition 390 00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:55,920 Speaker 11: under her leadership, no doubt with the Liberals and Nationals. Now, 391 00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 11: she's got no hype of ever forming government on her own. 392 00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:01,199 Speaker 11: There's something that she's admitted. I mean, despite all the 393 00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:06,560 Speaker 11: amazing poll numbers where one nation is out polling what 394 00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:10,240 Speaker 11: purports to be the official opposition over here, she's only 395 00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:12,160 Speaker 11: got one seat in the Lower House, and you need 396 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:15,320 Speaker 11: seventy six to form government. You don't form government in 397 00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:18,159 Speaker 11: the upper House. And currently she's in charge of a 398 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:20,720 Speaker 11: ragtag bunch of about five people who look like the 399 00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:23,920 Speaker 11: bar seat from Star Wars. Now she's admitted this week 400 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:25,560 Speaker 11: that she can't do it alone. But I'll tell you what, 401 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:29,399 Speaker 11: I'm happy to leave them forward and she'll guarantee supply. 402 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:32,000 Speaker 11: But as for joining now, no way, she says, says. 403 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:35,200 Speaker 11: The rabble is the quote. It's a bloody shambles. She says. 404 00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:38,560 Speaker 11: The Libs and Nats have been actually pinching whatever policies 405 00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:41,720 Speaker 11: they have, they've pinched from her. And meantime, Clive Palmer, 406 00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:45,959 Speaker 11: the billionaire part time politician, has said that he's prepared 407 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:49,000 Speaker 11: to bankroll the National Party. He's been a member of 408 00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:52,560 Speaker 11: both the Liberals and the Nationals. Ever, he says, Susan 409 00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:55,760 Speaker 11: Lee couldn't make an impression on a cushion. And he's 410 00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:59,040 Speaker 11: you know, he's not that, he's not that madly keenom 411 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:01,399 Speaker 11: and NAT's either. But he says the National Party is 412 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:03,360 Speaker 11: the only way you're ever going to get a right 413 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:05,880 Speaker 11: wing government here. The Liberal Party, he says, is dead. 414 00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:08,000 Speaker 11: It just hasn't woken up with the fact yet. 415 00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:10,680 Speaker 3: Now, if you had to place a bit on the 416 00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:13,600 Speaker 3: Nationals and Liberals making up with each other, would you. 417 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:18,160 Speaker 11: Yes, I would, because for the simple reason they both 418 00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:21,400 Speaker 11: know neither can get into bed with Pauline Hanson. That's 419 00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:26,240 Speaker 11: just a bizarre and nonsensical proposition that will never fly. 420 00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:28,640 Speaker 11: The only way they're ever going to work and ever 421 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:30,960 Speaker 11: going to form government again is to be in partnership 422 00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:35,360 Speaker 11: together the Liberals and the National Party. There's no hope 423 00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:37,360 Speaker 11: in hell, Heather right at this moment that that will 424 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:40,320 Speaker 11: ever happen again. But you've got to get rid of 425 00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:43,040 Speaker 11: the egos, and that's what's driving all of this. You've 426 00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:47,120 Speaker 11: got ego driven halfwits and blue suits and sharkskin smiles 427 00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:51,520 Speaker 11: who think they can roll the first liberal female federal 428 00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:54,640 Speaker 11: leader they've ever had and shove some other bloken there. 429 00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:58,159 Speaker 11: You know, there's just this inability head to read what 430 00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:02,720 Speaker 11: the electorate is telling him over here. Who's voting for 431 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:05,399 Speaker 11: the liberals? No one, you know who votes for labor, 432 00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:09,920 Speaker 11: young people, women, migrants, all the people that this other mob. 433 00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:10,880 Speaker 11: What's a margin a lot? 434 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:13,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a fair point that you make. Hey, I 435 00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:16,480 Speaker 3: see a worker has died at an Australian gold mine. 436 00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:18,840 Speaker 11: Yeah, it's very very sad. I mean, we're not sure 437 00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:21,920 Speaker 11: exactly how this poor person has died a diet of 438 00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:24,919 Speaker 11: the Tanami gold mine app hand on hard. I've never 439 00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:27,199 Speaker 11: heard of it. It's way the heck out in the desert, 440 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:30,040 Speaker 11: five hundred and fifty kilometers north west of Ellis Springs. 441 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:33,560 Speaker 11: Has got eighteen hundred workers up there digging out about 442 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:36,040 Speaker 11: eleven tons of gold a year. So it's a very 443 00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:39,760 Speaker 11: lucrative operation. Eighteen hundred workers all fly and fly out. 444 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:43,320 Speaker 11: There's no details of this accident, but the miners closed 445 00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:45,800 Speaker 11: at the moment while the authority is investigated checking what's 446 00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:46,280 Speaker 11: happened to you? 447 00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:48,919 Speaker 3: Yes, what did you make of this? I spotted this 448 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,639 Speaker 3: in the Sydney Morning Herald thought it was absolutely fascinating. 449 00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:55,880 Speaker 3: A new South Wales court has jailed a domestic abuser. 450 00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:58,160 Speaker 3: But for the first time ever, this chap is going 451 00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:00,280 Speaker 3: to prison. He hasn't even laid hands on the woman. 452 00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:04,639 Speaker 11: So what ja. He's in jail because the court found 453 00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:08,119 Speaker 11: he was guilty of what's called coercive control. Right, the 454 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:10,919 Speaker 11: thirty four year old fella in a six year relationship 455 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:13,760 Speaker 11: with this woman. Five times she tried to leave this 456 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:17,000 Speaker 11: fellow and in the end, the fifth time she managed 457 00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:19,480 Speaker 11: to go to police and say, listen, this is what's 458 00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:22,040 Speaker 11: been occurring over my six year relationship with this guy. 459 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:26,960 Speaker 11: Now police charged the fellow with coercive control and found 460 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:31,080 Speaker 11: guilty two years in jail. No physical violence, as you said. 461 00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:34,919 Speaker 11: But here's the thing. This guy was monitoring where she 462 00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:38,880 Speaker 11: went and who she was with. All her movements were questioned. Heather, 463 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:43,000 Speaker 11: it was unstoppable verbal abuse. He took her car keys 464 00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:45,920 Speaker 11: and wouldn't give them back, disputed. The credit card chargers 465 00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:48,880 Speaker 11: tried to isolate her from her friends and the deep 466 00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:52,720 Speaker 11: from her family. Now police said no good and as 467 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 11: you say, this is a unique case for the best 468 00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:57,480 Speaker 11: of our knowledge. Here in New South Wales a guy's 469 00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:01,560 Speaker 11: been sent to jail for two years for basically coercively 470 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:07,120 Speaker 11: controlling his girlfriend and it is illegal. President we understand. 471 00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:09,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, we're interesting to see if that holds on appeal. 472 00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:11,080 Speaker 3: I muz, thank you for that, appreciate it. Murray Old's 473 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:12,840 Speaker 3: Australia corresponding. Do you know what I took from that? 474 00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:13,080 Speaker 19: I thought? 475 00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:16,600 Speaker 3: Do you know what I thought? I thought, jeez, I'm 476 00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:18,480 Speaker 3: not trying to tell people how to get away with 477 00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 3: bad things, but the old text messages, Ah, that's what's 478 00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:24,160 Speaker 3: being held against people. Now, be careful what you send 479 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:26,920 Speaker 3: an anger. I think eighteen away from five ever do 480 00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:29,480 Speaker 3: this has got to be one of the stupidest things 481 00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:32,960 Speaker 3: I've heard this year. Okay, So in the Cargol City 482 00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:36,520 Speaker 3: Council is I don't want to say in disarray because 483 00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:38,760 Speaker 3: that that's not fair. They're just in a massive dispute 484 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:42,360 Speaker 3: with each other about whether they should spend two million 485 00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:45,080 Speaker 3: dollars of their rate payers money on a clock tower. 486 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:47,919 Speaker 3: Now it's a depending on how you look at it, 487 00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:49,600 Speaker 3: it's a bargain because they're not going to be spending 488 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 3: all up for the full thing, right, it's a four 489 00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:54,320 Speaker 3: million dollar clock tower, and Distinction Hotel, which is nearby 490 00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:55,960 Speaker 3: the clock tower, wants to go half and half with 491 00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:59,280 Speaker 3: the city council. So Distinction puts in two million and 492 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:02,800 Speaker 3: the council puts two million, and your first I mean, 493 00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:06,399 Speaker 3: my first first thought was, oh, jeez, that's an expensive renovation, Like, 494 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:09,600 Speaker 3: how is a renovation of a clock tower two million 495 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:13,280 Speaker 3: dollars that? No, it's not a renovation. No, in the 496 00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:17,600 Speaker 3: Cargo City Council wants to build from scratch a clock 497 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:20,400 Speaker 3: tower in the middle of the city in the year 498 00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:23,840 Speaker 3: twenty twenty six. Is that not the stupidest thing you've 499 00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:26,360 Speaker 3: ever heard? I mean, I understand if you were going around, 500 00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:29,240 Speaker 3: you know, erecting a clock tower in the mid nineteenth 501 00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:32,080 Speaker 3: century so that people could I don't know, adjust their 502 00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:35,600 Speaker 3: watches to the central time. But it's twenty twenty six. 503 00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:37,920 Speaker 3: What have we all got in our hands? This little 504 00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:39,720 Speaker 3: guy the cell phone, I know what the time is. 505 00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:41,440 Speaker 3: I don't need it up on AO. Like that's weird, 506 00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:46,560 Speaker 3: isn't it. That is weird. Ian Pottinger in the Cargo 507 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:49,520 Speaker 3: City councilor has described it as idiotic, and I think 508 00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 3: I have to agree with him. If it was okay 509 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:53,920 Speaker 3: to still use the word nonce. I would be throwing 510 00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:55,600 Speaker 3: it around liberally right now. 511 00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:56,240 Speaker 7: Anyway. 512 00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:59,440 Speaker 20: If we had a slightly cheaper clock tower in the studio, though, 513 00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:01,439 Speaker 20: do you think we might get the time riter slightly 514 00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:02,280 Speaker 20: more often than No. 515 00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:05,200 Speaker 3: That's because that's not a time problem. That's a user errors. 516 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:09,040 Speaker 3: That's that's just looking at the numbers and just whatever. 517 00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:11,600 Speaker 3: You know, none of it making sense to the user 518 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:14,879 Speaker 3: being myself. Anyway, Ian's going to be with us to 519 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:16,280 Speaker 3: talk us and we're just gonna have a good old 520 00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:18,879 Speaker 3: chat in about half an hour about how stupid this is. 521 00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:21,760 Speaker 3: And you're welcomed away in nine to nine two Barry Soapers, 522 00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:23,000 Speaker 3: Next sixty away from. 523 00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:26,440 Speaker 1: Five Politics with centric credit, check your customers and get 524 00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:27,320 Speaker 1: payments certainty. 525 00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 3: It will get you across what's gone on in Waitangi 526 00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:31,679 Speaker 3: today after five o'clock of our reporter, who's there?

And I said to Jerry later, 537 00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:05,439 Speaker 19: I said, well, you picked your night pretty well, Jerry. 538 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:08,840 Speaker 19: You've got a big party going for you. And no, 539 00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 19: it was. It was an extraordinary party. And I take 540 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:16,240 Speaker 19: my hat off to Shane Jones for organizing it. It's 541 00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:17,119 Speaker 19: something of a cult. 542 00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:18,800 Speaker 3: Well, it's actually Dot who organized. 543 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:23,160 Speaker 19: She does a lot of the organization. The theme last 544 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:25,280 Speaker 19: night and I wasn't where there was a theme before 545 00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:28,879 Speaker 19: I went was a country in Western and of course 546 00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:33,720 Speaker 19: the Marshall Winston Peters was seated in a little long clay. 547 00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:36,520 Speaker 3: He did not no, he didn't know. 548 00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:42,880 Speaker 19: He didn't of course, but the sheriff was obviously Shane Jones, 549 00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:46,199 Speaker 19: and he dressed up with a holster and there were 550 00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:48,480 Speaker 19: a lot of hats around and stuff like that.

He essentially said that Mary and Labor have 606 00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:44,840 Speaker 19: been stabbing Maori in the back. This is what it rattled, 607 00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:48,120 Speaker 19: certainly the leadership of the party. This is what Hipkins 608 00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:48,680 Speaker 19: had to say. 609 00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:50,640 Speaker 21: Iron is a wonderful thing. I'm not going to be 610 00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:51,239 Speaker 21: able to stop him. 611 00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:55,240 Speaker 6: So it's got a bloody cheek, a load of rubbish. 612 00:29:55,960 --> 00:29:57,800 Speaker 6: We did a lot of work for Mary. 613 00:29:57,840 --> 00:29:59,440 Speaker 3: I'm proud of the work that our. 614 00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:02,760 Speaker 17: Team here had, just Sinda, we did more for Mary 615 00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:05,760 Speaker 17: over that six years than any government probably has done 616 00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:07,640 Speaker 17: in the previous generation. 617 00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:09,280 Speaker 7: You know, So it who doesn't. 618 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:10,840 Speaker 21: Know what he's talking about. I was talking to him 619 00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:12,360 Speaker 21: early and never said a word to me about that. 620 00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:16,960 Speaker 19: Well, interestingly, I did a bit of digging to look 621 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:20,480 Speaker 19: at Treaty settlements and how many had been settled by 622 00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:25,520 Speaker 19: National as opposed to the government, as opposed to the 623 00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:31,880 Speaker 19: Labor Party. So the Key English government they made between 624 00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:36,160 Speaker 19: fifty eight and sixty settlements when they were in power, 625 00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:41,080 Speaker 19: Chris Finlayson, of course, was the minister then. In the 626 00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:46,080 Speaker 19: eighteen years before that, just twenty seven settlements have been made. 627 00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:52,480 Speaker 19: The Clerk government made eleven and the Ardurn Hipkins government 628 00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:56,440 Speaker 19: they made ten to fifteen settlements. Now the ten to 629 00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 19: fifteen is that five of those ten were already in 630 00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:00,800 Speaker 19: and on the way. 631 00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:04,120 Speaker 3: It's contract that double number. Yeah great, Barry, thanks very much. 632 00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:08,840 Speaker 3: Barry Soker, Senior political correspondent. It's eight away from five here. 633 00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:10,680 Speaker 3: The most people couldn't care less about what's going on 634 00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:12,600 Speaker 3: at White Tonguey. It's something that the same people turn 635 00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:14,600 Speaker 3: up to every year, have their two minutes in the media, 636 00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:16,600 Speaker 3: and then we all move on for another three hundred 637 00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:19,080 Speaker 3: and sixty five days, which I think Baz is onto 638 00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:21,680 Speaker 3: something there is fair. But if you stuff it up, boy, 639 00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:23,840 Speaker 3: you stuff it up badly, don't you? And then everybody 640 00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:26,800 Speaker 3: remembers for ages speaking of when not not that he's 641 00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:29,920 Speaker 3: stuffed it up necessarily, but Act Party Leave leader David 642 00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:31,920 Speaker 3: Seymour has been at white Tonguey today and I'll tell 643 00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:35,640 Speaker 3: you why. He's taken absolutely no advice from me at all. 644 00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:38,080 Speaker 3: He's made it clear that his party still intends to 645 00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:40,680 Speaker 3: get the Treaty principal bill through, and he thinks it's 646 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:41,880 Speaker 3: just a matter of time. 647 00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:44,000 Speaker 5: That may or may not be in my time. I 648 00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:47,440 Speaker 5: give you example of I'm asexual lawful. You know when 649 00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:51,800 Speaker 5: I think it was then young Audrey's uncle actually put 650 00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:56,120 Speaker 5: that up on the order paper in nineteen seventy four. 651 00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:58,560 Speaker 5: People said, you're mad, why you're doing this focus on 652 00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:02,200 Speaker 5: the economy that'll never fly. Twelve years later a similar 653 00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:05,360 Speaker 5: law pass. Now seems crazy that anything was ever any 654 00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:06,040 Speaker 5: different now. 655 00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:08,480 Speaker 3: He also said something else the lovees won't be keen 656 00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:11,320 Speaker 3: on when he was asked about colonization, Well, you only. 657 00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:13,680 Speaker 5: Have to look at New Zealand as a success story. 658 00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:17,800 Speaker 5: Even the poorest people in New Zealand today living like 659 00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:20,760 Speaker 5: kings and Queen's compared with most places at most times 660 00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:23,960 Speaker 5: in history. I think that you could hardly say that 661 00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 5: being one of the most successful societies of the world today, 662 00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:29,200 Speaker 5: which New Zealand is, we sometimes forget what it is. 663 00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 5: You can hardly say that that's a poor outcome. 664 00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:32,080 Speaker 22: Yeah. 665 00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:35,720 Speaker 3: Now, of course the media just pop, so they asked 666 00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:37,880 Speaker 3: him about it some more. He doubled down, what do 667 00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:39,520 Speaker 3: you look like if the Paul Land Lakers a. 668 00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:42,400 Speaker 5: Clad oh, always having to answer the media's questions, I'm 669 00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:43,080 Speaker 5: a slave. 670 00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:47,400 Speaker 3: Oh dear, Okay, listen, let's move on to other things, 671 00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:49,160 Speaker 3: seeing as he hasn't taken any of my advice, and 672 00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:51,280 Speaker 3: just let that go for the minute. Ethan Griffiths is 673 00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:52,880 Speaker 3: going to be with us runners through what is going 674 00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:54,480 Speaker 3: on at Why t you what the day has been like? 675 00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:56,920 Speaker 3: Whether the Hecklers were stoke that they at least tried 676 00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:59,479 Speaker 3: to drown out the Prime Minister didn't work? And then 677 00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:04,360 Speaker 3: Wellington Water's chair Nick Leggett on all of those warnings 678 00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:06,720 Speaker 3: about that Pope plant in the years leading up to 679 00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:09,680 Speaker 3: the Old Pooh explosion. The other day News talks, he'd be. 680 00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:21,680 Speaker 1: The only drive show you can try the truck to 681 00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:24,760 Speaker 1: ask the questions, you get the answers, find a fag 682 00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:29,000 Speaker 1: sack and give the analysis. Here the duplicyll and drive 683 00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:32,680 Speaker 1: with One New Zealand and the power of satellite mobile 684 00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:33,680 Speaker 1: News Dogs dB. 685 00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:38,640 Speaker 3: Good afternoon. Christopher Luxon has been heckled when Ston Peters 686 00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:41,440 Speaker 3: told off the Hecklers and Madama Davidson gave the government 687 00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:43,680 Speaker 3: a what the heck? It's just another day at White Tonguey, 688 00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:46,440 Speaker 3: isn't it. Our political reporter on the spot is Ethan Griffiths, 689 00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:49,280 Speaker 3: who's with us High Ethan got to hear that on 690 00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:52,080 Speaker 3: the scale of things, in compared to past white Tonguey's 691 00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:54,680 Speaker 3: this is not that the reaction to the politicians hasn't 692 00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:56,000 Speaker 3: been all that bad this year, has it. 693 00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:56,920 Speaker 9: Now? 694 00:33:57,000 --> 00:33:59,040 Speaker 18: It's been pretty tame if I'm honest. I mean it 695 00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:01,400 Speaker 18: was very interesting. David Seymour, who copped it a lot 696 00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:03,600 Speaker 18: last year, copped basically nothing this year. 697 00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:05,640 Speaker 1: He had very few heckles. 698 00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:09,399 Speaker 18: The Prime Minister Chris Luckson obviously got quite a few more, 699 00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:12,240 Speaker 18: which was interesting to most of us who are standing 700 00:34:12,239 --> 00:34:14,680 Speaker 18: there on the pipe by watching it. And Winston Peters 701 00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:17,200 Speaker 18: as well, in typical fashion, hit back to the people 702 00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:19,880 Speaker 18: that were heckling him. But look, all in all, it 703 00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:21,239 Speaker 18: was pretty tame this year. 704 00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:23,920 Speaker 3: There's been a little bit of talk I've noticed of 705 00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:27,520 Speaker 3: a much higher police and security presence, although the government 706 00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:30,000 Speaker 3: ministers tried to sort of shut that down. Was it 707 00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:30,800 Speaker 3: higher than normal? 708 00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:33,200 Speaker 18: Yeah, I mean all of us have been talking. 709 00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:36,279 Speaker 3: There's a lot of there's a lot of police presence here. 710 00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:38,880 Speaker 18: Man. We're not talking just cops either, We're talking about 711 00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:42,600 Speaker 18: drones that police are flying. We've seen cops with you know, 712 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:45,120 Speaker 18: the long sticks with mirrors on the end of them 713 00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:48,360 Speaker 18: to look for suspicious things under cars, and the Diplomatic 714 00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:50,879 Speaker 18: Protection Service as well. I mean that has really geared 715 00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:55,800 Speaker 18: up this year. Everyone seemingly has diplomatic protection at the moment, 716 00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:00,200 Speaker 18: and there are lots of cops right, there's cops all 717 00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:03,000 Speaker 18: around pie here and obviously in the evenings as well, 718 00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:04,759 Speaker 18: when they've got nothing to do, they've been doing things 719 00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:08,440 Speaker 18: like doing license checks at bars and drink driving and 720 00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:10,720 Speaker 18: things like that. So there is a huge police presence 721 00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:11,239 Speaker 18: here this year. 722 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:15,839 Speaker 3: Has it been any explanation for why, No, not so far. 723 00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:19,480 Speaker 18: We did have a statement from the district commander up here, 724 00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:22,279 Speaker 18: Matt Suhui, who said that this is months in the 725 00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:25,960 Speaker 18: planning and is pretty typical. But it certainly does seem 726 00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:28,600 Speaker 18: like there has been an increased presence, which is odd 727 00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:31,799 Speaker 18: given we haven't seen that much protest action this year. 728 00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:34,520 Speaker 3: Yes, now I understand there's been a bit of drama 729 00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:35,880 Speaker 3: involving the Maori Party. 730 00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:38,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, this is very interesting. 731 00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:42,000 Speaker 18: Edu Kapakini, who of course is ousted to party Malori 732 00:35:42,080 --> 00:35:45,240 Speaker 18: MP Muddy Ameno Kapakini's son. He spoke on the Madai 733 00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:49,880 Speaker 18: today on the Napui side and shortly after his speech 734 00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:52,440 Speaker 18: Lwready White as he got up and spoke as well. 735 00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:56,640 Speaker 18: After his speech was finished, the two party Marti members 736 00:35:56,680 --> 00:36:01,280 Speaker 18: did a hakka in which Keddy Tamaheti, which is Darwiti's 737 00:36:01,360 --> 00:36:05,400 Speaker 18: wife and also the daughter of John Tummahetty, went quite 738 00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:09,160 Speaker 18: close to Edu Kappa Kingey performing ahaka essentially in his face. 739 00:36:09,480 --> 00:36:12,319 Speaker 18: It led to Muddy Menocapa Kingi sitting up on the 740 00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:15,160 Speaker 18: verandah of the media to stand up and yell hockey 741 00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:19,640 Speaker 18: Utu get back to Kitty Tummy Hetty. So look I 742 00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:22,320 Speaker 18: mean for a party that is looking to enter government 743 00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:24,839 Speaker 18: and a party which Chris Hipkins says needs to sort 744 00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:27,520 Speaker 18: their sort their drama out before they get him, for 745 00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:29,400 Speaker 18: it to all play out on the pipe of the 746 00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:31,879 Speaker 18: Madi today was probably not very effective for them. 747 00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:34,080 Speaker 3: Interesting, Hey, Ethan, thanks very much runn us for at 748 00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:37,520 Speaker 3: Ethan Griffith's newstalk ZB Political Reporter ten past five. 749 00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:40,239 Speaker 1: Heather Do for Sea Elis well It's now been. 750 00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:43,120 Speaker 3: Revealed there have been warnings for years about that wastewater 751 00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:45,640 Speaker 3: plant pumping swage into the ocean in Wellington. It has 752 00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:49,360 Speaker 3: been non compliant every month except for two months for 753 00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:52,480 Speaker 3: the last two years. Nick Leggett is Wellington Water's chair 754 00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:55,359 Speaker 3: and he's with us now. High Nick Hi Heather, how 755 00:36:55,400 --> 00:36:56,320 Speaker 3: was it non compliant? 756 00:36:57,719 --> 00:37:01,080 Speaker 13: Well, there are the problem with all wastewater treatment plants 757 00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:05,160 Speaker 13: in the Wellingham region. They have not had the investment 758 00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:08,400 Speaker 13: over many many years needed to keep them up, keep 759 00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:12,520 Speaker 13: the equipment in the plant up to scratch, and as 760 00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:17,319 Speaker 13: a result they don't meet in all cases, in some 761 00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:20,279 Speaker 13: very few cases and with some plants they don't meet 762 00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:27,600 Speaker 13: the standards required. And that's been pretty evident with reporting 763 00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:30,960 Speaker 13: that's public that Wellington Water does on behalf of the 764 00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:34,239 Speaker 13: council owners and of course either it points to the 765 00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:37,359 Speaker 13: fact that we've got a broken system where it comes 766 00:37:37,360 --> 00:37:39,279 Speaker 13: to water delivery in New Zealand, and that's why we're 767 00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:40,799 Speaker 13: headed to reform now. 768 00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:43,480 Speaker 3: Look, I know, given that we haven't completed and we 769 00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:45,800 Speaker 3: don't really know what's gone wrong here this week, it 770 00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:48,920 Speaker 3: be hard for us to understand whether the red flags 771 00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:51,399 Speaker 3: and the two years leading up to now relate somehow 772 00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:54,399 Speaker 3: to what has gone on here. But is it a possibility, Well, 773 00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:55,920 Speaker 3: I think it's a possibility. 774 00:37:55,960 --> 00:38:02,680 Speaker 13: I mean a lot of plants are old, their designs 775 00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:06,440 Speaker 13: are not what you design these days, and you know 776 00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:09,839 Speaker 13: there's going to have to be significant money spent on them. 777 00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:14,359 Speaker 13: And the councils of the region know that Wellington Water 778 00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:16,959 Speaker 13: has signaled that the councils have agreed over the last 779 00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:19,480 Speaker 13: year or two to divert more money into these plants 780 00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:24,000 Speaker 13: because unfortunately they all carry risks and this risk has 781 00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:27,920 Speaker 13: become a reality, and that is you know, it's not 782 00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:32,400 Speaker 13: acceptable for Wellingtonian's aufer the surrounding coastal environment. This is 783 00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:36,640 Speaker 13: not the country that we want to live in where 784 00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:39,560 Speaker 13: wastewater is pumping us into the environment. 785 00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:42,719 Speaker 3: Have you thought about dumping Veolia? Who are the ones 786 00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:45,680 Speaker 3: running this wastewater plant? At any point leading up to. 787 00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:50,120 Speaker 13: Now, we've also been public about the challenges but in 788 00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:55,120 Speaker 13: that relationship with Violia. But because we've got water reform coming, 789 00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:58,520 Speaker 13: so people will know and many will be pleased to 790 00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:01,759 Speaker 13: know that Wellington Water will be no more come a year, 791 00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:05,239 Speaker 13: there's going to be a new organization called Tiaki Wire 792 00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:08,360 Speaker 13: that will not only service and run the assets, it 793 00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:11,400 Speaker 13: will own the assets and it will build customers directly. 794 00:39:11,760 --> 00:39:19,120 Speaker 13: Now what Wellington Water has been publicly disemboweling itself for 795 00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:22,400 Speaker 13: the last year and improving the value for money that 796 00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:27,040 Speaker 13: we give to Wellingtonians by making some of the contracting 797 00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:30,800 Speaker 13: commercial relationships more competitive. We've been getting things sorted to 798 00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:33,440 Speaker 13: this new organization. I mean to give you an example, 799 00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:37,319 Speaker 13: Wellington Water employees five hundred people and spends half a 800 00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:41,280 Speaker 13: billion dollars a year on providing water services. It doesn't 801 00:39:41,280 --> 00:39:45,000 Speaker 13: have its own payroll system, its own finance system. It's 802 00:39:45,080 --> 00:39:47,600 Speaker 13: never had that investment. And so what we've had to 803 00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:51,240 Speaker 13: do is triage what we fix and what we improve 804 00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:57,799 Speaker 13: and actually changing the elier relationship, changing that horse. When 805 00:39:57,840 --> 00:40:01,400 Speaker 13: we're about to go into, you know, have this massive reform, 806 00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:03,880 Speaker 13: it just isn't a sensible thing to do. 807 00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:05,320 Speaker 9: And so instead. 808 00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:08,160 Speaker 13: Wells and Water has chosen to manage that relationship to 809 00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:10,280 Speaker 13: get more out of it and to improve the problem. 810 00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:12,320 Speaker 3: A little short on time here, Nick, but just quickly, 811 00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:15,200 Speaker 3: if it is found that Veolia could have avoided what 812 00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:17,360 Speaker 3: has happened this week, will they get pained for it? 813 00:40:17,400 --> 00:40:18,879 Speaker 3: Do they get a fine or something like that? 814 00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:23,200 Speaker 13: Look, I just think there are so many moving parts 815 00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:26,279 Speaker 13: and so many parties involved. We are not in a 816 00:40:26,320 --> 00:40:30,359 Speaker 13: position to point fingers or lay blame or think about 817 00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:32,720 Speaker 13: what might happen. What I want to do is get 818 00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:37,120 Speaker 13: the response sorted so we are not pumping or waste 819 00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:40,200 Speaker 13: there as soon as possible.

In the meeting on Tuesday we had two public submitters. 889 00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:16,080 Speaker 23: One was a local junior high school that have a 890 00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:20,120 Speaker 23: precarious four lane road going past one side of their 891 00:44:20,160 --> 00:44:24,000 Speaker 23: school with a pedestrian crossing, and so they were wanting 892 00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:29,480 Speaker 23: quite illuminated please slow down stop sort of lights whatever 893 00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:32,880 Speaker 23: the experts put in, and that obviously at council expense, 894 00:44:32,960 --> 00:44:37,279 Speaker 23: which we expect to do and we have to. We 895 00:44:37,280 --> 00:44:39,000 Speaker 23: were told we have to go and try and find 896 00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:42,160 Speaker 23: funding for this, you know, from New Zealand fans, or 897 00:44:42,719 --> 00:44:43,919 Speaker 23: we don't have money in the bank. 898 00:44:43,960 --> 00:44:44,520 Speaker 6: Effectively. 899 00:44:44,880 --> 00:44:50,440 Speaker 23: The other one was a group of local young people 900 00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:54,200 Speaker 23: who were wanting bus shelters so they could wait for 901 00:44:54,280 --> 00:44:56,960 Speaker 23: the bus without getting rained on, you know, which is 902 00:44:57,280 --> 00:44:59,080 Speaker 23: a reasonable requestion in cargo. 903 00:44:59,360 --> 00:45:00,680 Speaker 11: Both those we're. 904 00:45:00,520 --> 00:45:03,279 Speaker 23: Submitners that day, and then right at the end we 905 00:45:03,320 --> 00:45:06,040 Speaker 23: see this folly of the two million dollar clock, and 906 00:45:06,160 --> 00:45:10,920 Speaker 23: I just had to say, excuse me, you know it's idiotic. 907 00:45:11,280 --> 00:45:14,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, good luck with it. Ian, I'm glad you're calling 908 00:45:14,160 --> 00:45:16,920 Speaker 3: it what it actually is, Ian Pottering just in Theacago 909 00:45:17,040 --> 00:45:20,120 Speaker 3: City councilor hither, it's interesting. This is from David. It's 910 00:45:20,160 --> 00:45:22,839 Speaker 3: interesting listening to those ongoing excuses from Nick Legget. It's 911 00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:24,680 Speaker 3: time for some accountability. Do you know what I agree? 912 00:45:24,760 --> 00:45:27,120 Speaker 3: I think that is. I opened the show saying this, 913 00:45:27,480 --> 00:45:31,560 Speaker 3: we need to expect better of our people running facilities 914 00:45:31,600 --> 00:45:34,640 Speaker 3: like this and our councils. And the correct answer, actually, 915 00:45:34,680 --> 00:45:37,640 Speaker 3: when I ask the question, will they get fined or something? 916 00:45:37,680 --> 00:45:40,440 Speaker 3: If Veolia is to blame for this, the correct answer 917 00:45:40,480 --> 00:45:43,960 Speaker 3: is absol bloody lootely they will five two. 918 00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:48,160 Speaker 1: Digging deeper into the day's headlines, it's Heather Do for 919 00:45:48,280 --> 00:45:52,200 Speaker 1: Clan Drive with one New Zealand coverage like no one 920 00:45:52,239 --> 00:45:53,280 Speaker 1: else news talks. 921 00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:54,279 Speaker 18: They'd be hey, do. 922 00:45:54,200 --> 00:45:56,400 Speaker 3: You remember last year with the peach business and the 923 00:45:56,440 --> 00:46:00,560 Speaker 3: contracts getting canned and what he's what he's been the 924 00:46:00,560 --> 00:46:02,399 Speaker 3: ones canning the contraction, I mean all that stuff at 925 00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:03,800 Speaker 3: the time. I don't know if you realize this, but 926 00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:05,879 Speaker 3: what he's claimed that the Chinese were dumping a whole 927 00:46:05,880 --> 00:46:09,239 Speaker 3: bunch of peaches here. It's been an investigation. They were right. 928 00:46:09,600 --> 00:46:11,560 Speaker 3: We're going to talk to the Minister Scott Simpson about 929 00:46:11,560 --> 00:46:14,000 Speaker 3: that after six o'clock. Right now, it's twenty five past five, 930 00:46:14,520 --> 00:46:17,279 Speaker 3: so it's been five days since the latest stump of 931 00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:19,439 Speaker 3: the Epstein files and five days on we can say 932 00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:22,719 Speaker 3: so far, at least, the conspiracy theorists have not been 933 00:46:22,760 --> 00:46:25,480 Speaker 3: proven right. There is no client list, there is no 934 00:46:25,560 --> 00:46:28,279 Speaker 3: clear evidence that Epstein was blackmailing powerful people, and there 935 00:46:28,320 --> 00:46:30,160 Speaker 3: is no proof that he was murdered in jail. And 936 00:46:30,280 --> 00:46:34,319 Speaker 3: yet the conspiracy theorists aren't completely wrong, are they? Because 937 00:46:34,320 --> 00:46:36,560 Speaker 3: one of the threads running through all of the conspiracy 938 00:46:36,600 --> 00:46:39,680 Speaker 3: theories is that powerful people protect other powerful people so 939 00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:42,080 Speaker 3: that they don't have to suffer the consequences of their actions. Now, 940 00:46:42,080 --> 00:46:43,960 Speaker 3: if you believe the Bill Gates got an STD from 941 00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:45,480 Speaker 3: a rushing girl and tried to hide it from his 942 00:46:45,520 --> 00:46:49,120 Speaker 3: wife by slipping her antibiotics email. Then that is proof, 943 00:46:49,520 --> 00:46:52,360 Speaker 3: but that requires you believing the email. But Peter Mandelson 944 00:46:52,400 --> 00:46:55,480 Speaker 3: over in the UK, that case is one hundred percent 945 00:46:55,600 --> 00:46:59,560 Speaker 3: absolute proof of powerful people escaping consequences. Peter Mandilson has 946 00:46:59,600 --> 00:47:02,400 Speaker 3: been bust. It is having leaked market sensitive UK government 947 00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:06,920 Speaker 3: information to Epstein while he was a government minister about 948 00:47:06,960 --> 00:47:08,920 Speaker 3: how his Prime minister was planning to deal with the 949 00:47:08,960 --> 00:47:11,399 Speaker 3: aftermath of the GFC and then he was swanning around 950 00:47:11,400 --> 00:47:13,800 Speaker 3: Epstein's apartment in his undies and then according to the emails, 951 00:47:13,800 --> 00:47:16,760 Speaker 3: he was being paid seventy five thousand quid by Epstein. 952 00:47:17,120 --> 00:47:19,480 Speaker 3: Now this is where it proves the theme of the 953 00:47:19,520 --> 00:47:23,279 Speaker 3: conspiracy theories right. Even though Kius Starman now admits that 954 00:47:23,320 --> 00:47:27,320 Speaker 3: he knew Mandalshn and Epstein's stayed mates. After Epstein's conviction, 955 00:47:27,800 --> 00:47:31,720 Speaker 3: Starmer appointed mandalssn as that the UK ambassador to the US. Anyway, 956 00:47:32,120 --> 00:47:34,799 Speaker 3: even though more information came out last year that made 957 00:47:34,880 --> 00:47:39,239 Speaker 3: Mandalsson look bad, Mandalsshon remained a lord. Why because Peter 958 00:47:39,360 --> 00:47:42,160 Speaker 3: Mandelson is a fellow Labour Party man who has helped 959 00:47:42,160 --> 00:47:45,080 Speaker 3: the Labour Party Kis Sarma's Labour Party into office. And 960 00:47:45,120 --> 00:47:47,759 Speaker 3: it was friends helping friends. But now now that this 961 00:47:47,840 --> 00:47:50,080 Speaker 3: dump of information has come out, Peter Mandlsson has lost 962 00:47:50,080 --> 00:47:52,640 Speaker 3: a job obviously previously is now being removed from the 963 00:47:52,680 --> 00:47:54,879 Speaker 3: Privy Council, might lose his title of Lorden as being 964 00:47:54,880 --> 00:47:58,760 Speaker 3: investigated by the police, all of which would never possibly 965 00:47:58,800 --> 00:48:02,080 Speaker 3: have happened if it was that the conspiracy theorists never 966 00:48:02,080 --> 00:48:06,359 Speaker 3: stopped demanding the Epstein files. So even though the conspiracy 967 00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:09,960 Speaker 3: theorists aren't totally wrong right, aren't, And even though they 968 00:48:10,000 --> 00:48:12,480 Speaker 3: haven't been proven right in their broader vibe about what 969 00:48:12,640 --> 00:48:14,960 Speaker 3: was going on, they were absolutely bang on. 970 00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:16,680 Speaker 1: Heather duper c Ellen. 971 00:48:17,160 --> 00:48:19,200 Speaker 3: Super Bowl is happening on Monday, but the ads are 972 00:48:19,239 --> 00:48:20,840 Speaker 3: already out.

I mean, I've been 1025 00:50:44,040 --> 00:50:46,680 Speaker 10: working with dogs for nineteen years and I started out 1026 00:50:46,719 --> 00:50:49,000 Speaker 10: my career with the city council and it's just been 1027 00:50:49,040 --> 00:50:53,480 Speaker 10: steadily increasing. The I believe the dog Control acts that 1028 00:50:53,480 --> 00:50:55,919 Speaker 10: we're working with at the moment as in nineteen ninety six. 1029 00:50:57,239 --> 00:50:58,960 Speaker 10: But yeah, so and overhall, they're great ideas. 1030 00:50:59,400 --> 00:51:01,120 Speaker 3: What is it you would change about the laws? 1031 00:51:03,920 --> 00:51:07,560 Speaker 10: I mean, from a trainer's perspective, I think, you know, 1032 00:51:08,040 --> 00:51:10,560 Speaker 10: so many of the problems stem from just a lack 1033 00:51:10,560 --> 00:51:14,239 Speaker 10: of education for dog owners first of all about you know, 1034 00:51:14,480 --> 00:51:18,040 Speaker 10: breed specific requirements, what's actually involved in training a dog, 1035 00:51:18,120 --> 00:51:21,920 Speaker 10: and also what the legal obligations are of dog owners. 1036 00:51:23,080 --> 00:51:24,799 Speaker 10: Would you love to see One of. 1037 00:51:24,800 --> 00:51:27,600 Speaker 3: The things, Diana, that Auckland City Council appears to be 1038 00:51:27,600 --> 00:51:30,520 Speaker 3: pushing for is the ability to detain what like, they 1039 00:51:30,520 --> 00:51:32,360 Speaker 3: look at a dog, they go, well, that dog looks 1040 00:51:32,400 --> 00:51:36,040 Speaker 3: dodgy as all hell. The ability to just detain that 1041 00:51:36,120 --> 00:51:38,480 Speaker 3: dog rather than having to go through a lengthy court 1042 00:51:38,560 --> 00:51:40,319 Speaker 3: process to be able to do that. I mean, that 1043 00:51:40,400 --> 00:51:43,160 Speaker 3: makes sense to me, doesn't it that should be allowed? 1044 00:51:44,239 --> 00:51:46,759 Speaker 10: I mean, I guess it depends on what their criteria is. 1045 00:51:46,960 --> 00:51:50,880 Speaker 10: If it's you know, the way that they identify some 1046 00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:54,120 Speaker 10: of our band breeds, you know, the present Canaria with 1047 00:51:54,200 --> 00:51:57,160 Speaker 10: it our physical characteristics, that would mean that they would 1048 00:51:57,160 --> 00:51:59,480 Speaker 10: classify a dog as menacing by breed or whether or 1049 00:51:59,480 --> 00:52:03,120 Speaker 10: not it's behavioral. The officer has encountered the dog and 1050 00:52:03,160 --> 00:52:05,359 Speaker 10: they have deemed them to be dangerous, and I mean, 1051 00:52:05,360 --> 00:52:06,680 Speaker 10: I think it would depend on all of that kind 1052 00:52:06,680 --> 00:52:07,040 Speaker 10: of stuff. 1053 00:52:07,120 --> 00:52:09,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, how much. But by the way, how much does 1054 00:52:09,120 --> 00:52:11,880 Speaker 3: exercise because one of the articles suggests that exercise is 1055 00:52:11,920 --> 00:52:14,520 Speaker 3: actually a real fundamental thing here, and if a dog 1056 00:52:14,600 --> 00:52:17,440 Speaker 3: isn't a huge probably not getting enough of a run around. 1057 00:52:18,120 --> 00:52:21,600 Speaker 10: Absolutely, Yeah, absolutely, that's what I mean by breed specific requirements. 1058 00:52:21,640 --> 00:52:25,680 Speaker 10: You know, dogs like kind of huskies and collies, and 1059 00:52:26,440 --> 00:52:29,600 Speaker 10: you know dogs like that, they require an enormous amount 1060 00:52:29,640 --> 00:52:32,920 Speaker 10: of stimulation and enrichment and exercise, and so many of 1061 00:52:32,960 --> 00:52:35,319 Speaker 10: them are not getting it. So of course, you know 1062 00:52:35,600 --> 00:52:40,440 Speaker 10: the behaviors, you know, becoming dangerous. 1063 00:52:40,640 --> 00:52:43,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, if you're teaching your kids, because the problem is 1064 00:52:43,400 --> 00:52:46,399 Speaker 3: that this is something that freaks parents out and other 1065 00:52:46,440 --> 00:52:48,839 Speaker 3: dog owners obviously, who generally know how to deal with it. 1066 00:52:49,239 --> 00:52:51,400 Speaker 3: But if you're worried as a parent, what do you 1067 00:52:51,440 --> 00:52:53,560 Speaker 3: teach your kids about how to approach your dog and 1068 00:52:53,600 --> 00:52:55,280 Speaker 3: what to look for in order to keep them safe? 1069 00:52:57,680 --> 00:52:57,759 Speaker 1: Oh? 1070 00:52:57,880 --> 00:53:01,120 Speaker 10: I mean you know, I mean we teach our kids 1071 00:53:01,560 --> 00:53:03,680 Speaker 10: pretty much, don't approach a dog. You know, if a 1072 00:53:03,719 --> 00:53:05,799 Speaker 10: dog is friendly and approaching you, and you've had an 1073 00:53:05,800 --> 00:53:08,120 Speaker 10: opportunity to ask the owner and is it okay? If 1074 00:53:08,160 --> 00:53:11,360 Speaker 10: I say hello, then that's okay. But in general, don't 1075 00:53:11,719 --> 00:53:14,279 Speaker 10: go in't to approach dogs. Definitely, don't approach dogs if you 1076 00:53:14,280 --> 00:53:16,759 Speaker 10: don't know them. And if a dog not making it 1077 00:53:16,880 --> 00:53:18,640 Speaker 10: very clear that it wants to be friends with you, 1078 00:53:18,680 --> 00:53:19,120 Speaker 10: then leave it. 1079 00:53:19,160 --> 00:53:21,360 Speaker 3: Then all right, Hey, thank you, Diana, I really appreciate it. 1080 00:53:21,360 --> 00:53:23,839 Speaker 3: A Diana Haggart, dog trainer at Ministry of Hound.

All too often we've 1105 00:54:23,640 --> 00:54:26,480 Speaker 3: seen something like this happen and then there's no consequence. 1106 00:54:26,560 --> 00:54:29,560 Speaker 3: So what should we actually be expecting here? 1107 00:54:30,719 --> 00:54:33,439 Speaker 12: Well, I like the fact that Mark's passed off at 1108 00:54:33,440 --> 00:54:36,719 Speaker 12: the sewerage, so that's quite good. The first thing Right 1109 00:54:36,960 --> 00:54:38,600 Speaker 12: is going to do is stop by never hold a 1110 00:54:38,680 --> 00:54:41,880 Speaker 12: lefties who go in there and do all the wrong things. Seriously, 1111 00:54:41,880 --> 00:54:43,719 Speaker 12: if he goes through all their maors from Tory farn 1112 00:54:43,800 --> 00:54:46,719 Speaker 12: Out or Justin Lester or even Celia Wade Brown.

And 1151 00:56:28,600 --> 00:56:30,480 Speaker 3: I'm saying I'm taking it from you guys in Wellington, 1152 00:56:30,480 --> 00:56:32,440 Speaker 3: but extrapolating it to the whole country. Aren't we actually 1153 00:56:32,480 --> 00:56:35,840 Speaker 3: getting exactly what we deserve because we keep voting for numpties. 1154 00:56:37,080 --> 00:56:38,880 Speaker 22: Well, I mean, I still think there's a problem with 1155 00:56:38,880 --> 00:56:41,520 Speaker 22: the whole system. Because if you know you've got you know, 1156 00:56:41,600 --> 00:56:44,400 Speaker 22: these situation I mean you look at Queen'stown. You can't 1157 00:56:44,400 --> 00:56:46,440 Speaker 22: have a rate to base that size trying to sort 1158 00:56:46,440 --> 00:56:48,600 Speaker 22: of run all the things, a lot of the stuff 1159 00:56:48,600 --> 00:56:50,600 Speaker 22: that needs to be done, and I mean, who is 1160 00:56:50,640 --> 00:56:52,440 Speaker 22: going to pick up the tab for this? You know, 1161 00:56:53,880 --> 00:56:56,960 Speaker 22: councils and Morris should be more familiar. I mean councils, 1162 00:56:57,719 --> 00:56:59,640 Speaker 22: they just need to change the whole funding model. 1163 00:56:59,640 --> 00:57:00,799 Speaker 9: It does not work, you. 1164 00:57:00,719 --> 00:57:03,800 Speaker 3: Don't know, because saints. So then you're just giving idiots 1165 00:57:03,880 --> 00:57:08,200 Speaker 3: around the council table more money. I know it's going 1166 00:57:08,239 --> 00:57:10,240 Speaker 3: to blow it on stupid stuff like in the cargo, 1167 00:57:10,400 --> 00:57:11,920 Speaker 3: which by the way, brings me to it saying, O 1168 00:57:12,040 --> 00:57:14,200 Speaker 3: thoughts on in the cargo spending two million dollars on 1169 00:57:14,200 --> 00:57:15,279 Speaker 3: o'clock tower, Go. 1170 00:57:15,239 --> 00:57:18,960 Speaker 22: On, why the bloody health clock tower? This was sort 1171 00:57:18,960 --> 00:57:21,760 Speaker 22: of that sort of you know, provincial vanities, you know, 1172 00:57:21,880 --> 00:57:24,400 Speaker 22: every town and they had a purpose. 1173 00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:26,600 Speaker 9: In those days because not everyone could afford a watch. 1174 00:57:27,400 --> 00:57:29,520 Speaker 22: There was no cell phones, you know, and it was 1175 00:57:29,520 --> 00:57:32,200 Speaker 22: it was a point of center point for these towns. 1176 00:57:32,440 --> 00:57:34,120 Speaker 11: There's absolutely no need for. 1177 00:57:34,320 --> 00:57:37,120 Speaker 22: The cargo to spend two million on something it's as 1178 00:57:37,120 --> 00:57:38,120 Speaker 22: thick to be obsolete. 1179 00:57:38,240 --> 00:57:39,840 Speaker 3: I totally agree, Morris. I want to hear what you've 1180 00:57:39,840 --> 00:57:41,200 Speaker 3: got to say. I'm sure you've got things to say 1181 00:57:41,240 --> 00:57:43,280 Speaker 3: about that. We'll get it after the break. Sixteen away from. 1182 00:57:43,200 --> 00:57:47,920 Speaker 1: Six the huddle with New Zealand Southeby's International Realty, the 1183 00:57:48,000 --> 00:57:49,720 Speaker 1: only truly global brand. 1184 00:57:50,240 --> 00:57:52,520 Speaker 3: Right, you're back with a huddle, Morris Williams and Mark Sainsbury. 1185 00:57:52,560 --> 00:57:53,919 Speaker 3: Go on, Morris, what do you think of the clock 1186 00:57:53,960 --> 00:57:54,800 Speaker 3: Tower spend. 1187 00:57:55,000 --> 00:57:58,120 Speaker 12: Well I can hardly disagree with anything Mark said. It 1188 00:57:58,160 --> 00:58:01,040 Speaker 12: was fantastic and literally, if I'm going to bag Wellington 1189 00:58:01,120 --> 00:58:03,160 Speaker 12: for two and a half million on a toilet block, 1190 00:58:03,480 --> 00:58:05,280 Speaker 12: then I should be bagging in v cargo for two 1191 00:58:05,320 --> 00:58:08,800 Speaker 12: million and o'clock. For god's sake, everyone's got bloody watches 1192 00:58:08,840 --> 00:58:09,600 Speaker 12: on themselves now. 1193 00:58:09,520 --> 00:58:11,720 Speaker 3: Though I know it's ridiculous, but does this not, Morris, 1194 00:58:11,760 --> 00:58:14,000 Speaker 3: does this lot go to the heart of the problem 1195 00:58:14,000 --> 00:58:15,520 Speaker 3: that we have with councils, which is the saying so 1196 00:58:15,520 --> 00:58:17,320 Speaker 3: I was saying, oh, look, they just need more money, 1197 00:58:17,360 --> 00:58:20,120 Speaker 3: but actually if they had, even with little money, they're 1198 00:58:20,120 --> 00:58:23,320 Speaker 3: making terrible spending decisions. So more money doesn't fix the problem, 1199 00:58:23,320 --> 00:58:23,680 Speaker 3: does it. 1200 00:58:24,360 --> 00:58:24,640 Speaker 1: No? 1201 00:58:24,640 --> 00:58:26,840 Speaker 12: No, it doesn't. And if you look at Auckland Council. 1202 00:58:26,920 --> 00:58:30,360 Speaker 12: We almost weekly get stories of a set of stears 1203 00:58:30,480 --> 00:58:33,080 Speaker 12: up on the north shore, down on the waterfront with 1204 00:58:33,280 --> 00:58:35,840 Speaker 12: eight hundred thousand dollars to build or something, and they 1205 00:58:36,560 --> 00:58:40,080 Speaker 12: it's just there are sums of money that everyone looks 1206 00:58:40,080 --> 00:58:41,680 Speaker 12: at and just their heads spin at it. 1207 00:58:41,720 --> 00:58:43,680 Speaker 9: So no, more money's not the solution. 1208 00:58:43,880 --> 00:58:46,080 Speaker 3: But hold on, did you want to talk about rates 1209 00:58:46,080 --> 00:58:48,400 Speaker 3: caps because you guys voted about this on this the 1210 00:58:48,440 --> 00:58:49,240 Speaker 3: other day, didn't. 1211 00:58:49,000 --> 00:58:52,240 Speaker 12: You, Morris, Yes, indeed, And I was just gobsmack. We 1212 00:58:52,360 --> 00:58:55,720 Speaker 12: ended up with only six of us voting to support 1213 00:58:55,800 --> 00:58:58,160 Speaker 12: a rates cap. And then I heard a whole lot 1214 00:58:58,160 --> 00:59:01,880 Speaker 12: of councilors around the table who come from really very 1215 00:59:02,000 --> 00:59:06,200 Speaker 12: very socioeconomic depressed body parts of wards around the city, 1216 00:59:06,440 --> 00:59:09,400 Speaker 12: and they said how difficult it was for their voters 1217 00:59:09,440 --> 00:59:11,600 Speaker 12: to even put food on the table at alone pay 1218 00:59:11,640 --> 00:59:13,680 Speaker 12: their rates bill. And I thought, good, this is going 1219 00:59:13,720 --> 00:59:16,400 Speaker 12: the right way. And then they all voted for opposing 1220 00:59:16,440 --> 00:59:17,120 Speaker 12: the rates. 1221 00:59:16,840 --> 00:59:21,680 Speaker 22: Capavid doesn't believe rate the rates cap effect. 1222 00:59:21,680 --> 00:59:24,560 Speaker 9: They're credit rating aren't Moody's and Si. 1223 00:59:26,040 --> 00:59:28,040 Speaker 12: No, no, that's one of the big rumors out there 1224 00:59:28,080 --> 00:59:30,080 Speaker 12: that rates cap indeed will start to make us have 1225 00:59:30,160 --> 00:59:34,240 Speaker 12: to cut our cloth accordingly and actually just stop spending 1226 00:59:34,400 --> 00:59:37,440 Speaker 12: sums of money on things that just can't be justified, 1227 00:59:37,440 --> 00:59:41,600 Speaker 12: faintly taking local government back to its core role and functions. 1228 00:59:41,840 --> 00:59:44,040 Speaker 12: Because there's so many people that keep coming up with 1229 00:59:44,120 --> 00:59:46,760 Speaker 12: new ideas about we should be into this and we should. 1230 00:59:46,560 --> 00:59:46,960 Speaker 9: Be doing that. 1231 00:59:47,040 --> 00:59:50,240 Speaker 12: I keep thinking, no, no, no, The bloody rate payers 1232 00:59:50,280 --> 00:59:52,480 Speaker 12: pay their rates to us for one reason, and that's 1233 00:59:52,680 --> 00:59:56,120 Speaker 12: delivering sort of foot paths and roads and sewerage and 1234 00:59:56,200 --> 00:59:58,000 Speaker 12: a whole lot of the parks and some one which 1235 00:59:58,000 --> 00:59:59,960 Speaker 12: are central to what it is. And stay at it. 1236 01:00:00,120 --> 01:00:02,440 Speaker 12: Everything that's not our core role and function. 1237 01:00:02,840 --> 01:00:05,480 Speaker 3: Well said now saying, so listen, do you think that 1238 01:00:05,520 --> 01:00:08,360 Speaker 3: we owe the conspiracy theorists a bit of gratitude for 1239 01:00:08,440 --> 01:00:10,840 Speaker 3: pushing and pushing and pushing and pushing and pushing until 1240 01:00:10,880 --> 01:00:12,240 Speaker 3: the files come out and then we see all the 1241 01:00:12,280 --> 01:00:13,280 Speaker 3: dirty stuff that's been. 1242 01:00:13,200 --> 01:00:15,440 Speaker 9: Going on, the gift that keeps on giving. 1243 01:00:15,520 --> 01:00:18,600 Speaker 12: I mean, it's and you're not going to no matter 1244 01:00:18,640 --> 01:00:22,000 Speaker 12: what happens, the conspiracy theorist will still carry on if 1245 01:00:22,000 --> 01:00:22,960 Speaker 12: no evidence comes out. 1246 01:00:22,960 --> 01:00:26,080 Speaker 22: It's pure proof that it wasn't there. But it does 1247 01:00:26,280 --> 01:00:29,200 Speaker 22: just show how shebby the thing. I was absolutely stunned 1248 01:00:29,240 --> 01:00:34,200 Speaker 22: by was old Lord Mandelssohn and effectively flogging off. 1249 01:00:34,360 --> 01:00:36,440 Speaker 9: You imagine that march. If you were flecking off cabinet 1250 01:00:36,480 --> 01:00:40,200 Speaker 9: notes and stuff, some investment that made you know you 1251 01:00:40,240 --> 01:00:43,720 Speaker 9: would be drummed out more than drummed out. 1252 01:00:43,760 --> 01:00:44,200 Speaker 7: But he got. 1253 01:00:44,600 --> 01:00:46,480 Speaker 12: But instead of that, he gets appointed to be the 1254 01:00:46,520 --> 01:00:52,080 Speaker 12: ambassador of the United States, dropping Mandlsson. I mean it 1255 01:00:52,120 --> 01:00:54,000 Speaker 12: was bad enough for them to have photos of him 1256 01:00:54,040 --> 01:00:55,840 Speaker 12: standing out of his unders and so on. I don't 1257 01:00:56,080 --> 01:00:58,400 Speaker 12: all of that's salacios stuff I really don't care about. 1258 01:00:58,400 --> 01:01:00,640 Speaker 12: And the bill gates whether he got the clap or not. 1259 01:01:00,960 --> 01:01:03,920 Speaker 12: But when you've got somebody who's a really senior, a 1260 01:01:03,960 --> 01:01:07,080 Speaker 12: lord of the House of Lords, getting budget announcements, and 1261 01:01:07,120 --> 01:01:11,400 Speaker 12: even when his boss was going to resign as Prime Minister, 1262 01:01:12,120 --> 01:01:14,680 Speaker 12: he got that information nine hours in advance and got 1263 01:01:14,720 --> 01:01:17,720 Speaker 12: it to his mates. Now that's big market changes. You'll 1264 01:01:17,760 --> 01:01:20,400 Speaker 12: see a price change in the market when Gordon Brown 1265 01:01:20,440 --> 01:01:23,600 Speaker 12: announces I'm stepping down as Prime Minister. That stuff's got 1266 01:01:23,640 --> 01:01:26,680 Speaker 12: to be kept under wraps until the very second it's done, 1267 01:01:26,960 --> 01:01:29,200 Speaker 12: or you can really go in and buy short on 1268 01:01:29,240 --> 01:01:31,920 Speaker 12: a particular item and then sell long when you're ready. 1269 01:01:32,640 --> 01:01:35,360 Speaker 12: It was just appalling what Mendelssohn got up to. I 1270 01:01:35,360 --> 01:01:37,320 Speaker 12: wonder he's had to resign from the House of Lord's. 1271 01:01:37,600 --> 01:01:39,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, and thank the conspiracy theorist for getting it out there. 1272 01:01:39,920 --> 01:01:40,120 Speaker 4: Now. 1273 01:01:40,400 --> 01:01:42,280 Speaker 3: I don't know about you saints about why Tonguey Day 1274 01:01:42,320 --> 01:01:45,000 Speaker 3: this year? Well it's not day yet, but why Tonguey 1275 01:01:45,040 --> 01:01:46,960 Speaker 3: the event this year? Bit math, wasn't it? 1276 01:01:47,880 --> 01:01:49,800 Speaker 9: Well? You know, I mean it's always interesting. 1277 01:01:49,840 --> 01:01:52,240 Speaker 22: I mean I spent years and years trudging up there 1278 01:01:52,280 --> 01:01:57,640 Speaker 22: every year. Marris, you would have done your time as well. 1279 01:01:57,720 --> 01:02:00,560 Speaker 22: I mean the highlight, of course was gone. It's getting 1280 01:02:00,560 --> 01:02:03,680 Speaker 22: pelted with mud, but I don't mean a highlight, and. 1281 01:02:03,600 --> 01:02:07,720 Speaker 9: That's unfortunately to happen. But he's just you know, sometimes 1282 01:02:07,720 --> 01:02:09,520 Speaker 9: you just can't believe what's going on. 1283 01:02:09,920 --> 01:02:11,920 Speaker 12: They don't think of flying, they don't think they're flying 1284 01:02:11,960 --> 01:02:19,520 Speaker 12: sex toy out. I blocked that out of my consciousness. 1285 01:02:19,960 --> 01:02:22,880 Speaker 3: We'll remember it very clearly. Now, what do you reckon, Morris? 1286 01:02:22,920 --> 01:02:24,240 Speaker 3: It was a bit of a bit of a bit 1287 01:02:24,280 --> 01:02:24,600 Speaker 3: of a. 1288 01:02:25,600 --> 01:02:26,320 Speaker 9: I think it's sad. 1289 01:02:26,800 --> 01:02:28,440 Speaker 12: One of the things I've been lucky enough to do 1290 01:02:28,520 --> 01:02:30,520 Speaker 12: for many many years is my wife and I've often 1291 01:02:30,560 --> 01:02:33,200 Speaker 12: gone to Melbourne for the tennis and when you're there 1292 01:02:33,200 --> 01:02:35,800 Speaker 12: at Melbourne, they have Australia Days is I think the 1293 01:02:35,800 --> 01:02:38,680 Speaker 12: twenty sixth of January and that's during the Australian Tennis 1294 01:02:38,840 --> 01:02:42,360 Speaker 12: and they really do celebrate their nation. It's incredible. They 1295 01:02:42,360 --> 01:02:45,640 Speaker 12: have overflying planes with colored vapor trails and balloons and 1296 01:02:45,680 --> 01:02:48,840 Speaker 12: people singing in the streets and it's real happy. And 1297 01:02:48,880 --> 01:02:51,200 Speaker 12: then we have our national Day of Celebration and it's 1298 01:02:51,200 --> 01:02:54,000 Speaker 12: just a big bitch session and screaming and yelling and 1299 01:02:54,520 --> 01:02:57,720 Speaker 12: and it's just it's just should stop. And I would 1300 01:02:57,720 --> 01:03:00,440 Speaker 12: have preferred that some of our politicians said, look, until 1301 01:03:00,440 --> 01:03:02,320 Speaker 12: we can find a way of going to y Kany 1302 01:03:02,640 --> 01:03:04,880 Speaker 12: to celebrate our history, we're not going to keep going. 1303 01:03:05,120 --> 01:03:06,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, you know there is always hope. We've still 1304 01:03:06,840 --> 01:03:08,720 Speaker 3: got tomorrow, can get the planes out. Morris.

Probably not, so we'll 1307 01:03:12,840 --> 01:03:16,640 Speaker 3: cancel the plane show, Morris Williamson, Mark says brow huddle. 1308 01:03:16,680 --> 01:03:17,960 Speaker 3: This evening haight away from six. 1309 01:03:19,120 --> 01:03:22,400 Speaker 1: It's the Heather Duper se Allen Drive Full Show podcast 1310 01:03:22,480 --> 01:03:25,280 Speaker 1: on my Art Radio powered by News Talk ZBI. 1311 01:03:27,960 --> 01:03:30,200 Speaker 3: Here the day of the scotsman.

I like that. Hey, listen, I 1314 01:03:39,640 --> 01:03:42,360 Speaker 3: almost forgot to tell you this is this was the 1315 01:03:42,440 --> 01:03:45,439 Speaker 3: absolute highlight of the day for me today. I took 1316 01:03:45,480 --> 01:03:48,400 Speaker 3: the baby for all, went to the supermarket. Guess what 1317 01:03:48,560 --> 01:03:51,280 Speaker 3: they're doing again. This is Woolworth's. Woolworths is doing the 1318 01:03:51,280 --> 01:03:54,160 Speaker 3: bricks again. Now why I am thrilled about I am 1319 01:03:54,520 --> 01:03:56,560 Speaker 3: thrilled about this. This is you know what I'm talking about. 1320 01:03:56,560 --> 01:03:58,680 Speaker 3: This is the lego thing. Get the little lego men 1321 01:03:58,760 --> 01:04:00,840 Speaker 3: from the and they're always cheap. They're like the cheap 1322 01:04:00,920 --> 01:04:03,720 Speaker 3: lego men. They don't have bendy legs. But you know 1323 01:04:03,720 --> 01:04:05,960 Speaker 3: what biggest campe chooses. I'm just gonna take what they've got, 1324 01:04:06,040 --> 01:04:07,560 Speaker 3: you know, like if you're just gonna have the leagus 1325 01:04:07,600 --> 01:04:10,280 Speaker 3: that just like little little hobbity legs that you shove 1326 01:04:10,360 --> 01:04:12,840 Speaker 3: on the bottom of the lego man's body. Whatever. I 1327 01:04:12,880 --> 01:04:16,960 Speaker 3: don't care anyway. So why I'm stoked about this is 1328 01:04:17,040 --> 01:04:19,040 Speaker 3: because if you listen to the show and the regular 1329 01:04:19,160 --> 01:04:22,360 Speaker 3: you know I have bitched and moaned, have I not? 1330 01:04:23,040 --> 01:04:27,560 Speaker 3: About the free give aways and especially the ones New World, 1331 01:04:28,000 --> 01:04:29,840 Speaker 3: because they keep running out of the good stuff, like 1332 01:04:29,880 --> 01:04:32,160 Speaker 3: the knives when you just got all your stickers and 1333 01:04:32,200 --> 01:04:33,800 Speaker 3: you go in and they none of them in the 1334 01:04:33,800 --> 01:04:36,840 Speaker 3: whole country. And then the reason I've been bitching at 1335 01:04:36,960 --> 01:04:39,479 Speaker 3: at Woolworths is because they've been giving stink things away, 1336 01:04:39,520 --> 01:04:42,120 Speaker 3: like little cardboard things you're supposed to make minecraft squares 1337 01:04:42,120 --> 01:04:43,720 Speaker 3: out of. Like who cares about that? Nobody at all 1338 01:04:43,800 --> 01:04:46,440 Speaker 3: on the face of this country anyway, So I am, 1339 01:04:46,520 --> 01:04:48,480 Speaker 3: and they have had a run of bad things. So 1340 01:04:49,040 --> 01:04:51,200 Speaker 3: you know, if you prepare to hand out a brick 1341 01:04:51,280 --> 01:04:52,840 Speaker 3: back for the stink things, you have to give a 1342 01:04:52,880 --> 01:04:54,800 Speaker 3: bouquet when they actually come to the party. And they 1343 01:04:54,840 --> 01:04:56,480 Speaker 3: have come to the party on this one, I love 1344 01:04:56,520 --> 01:04:59,320 Speaker 3: the Lego. Everybody loves Lego. Lego is a global phenomenon, 1345 01:04:59,320 --> 01:04:59,960 Speaker 3: so we're all gonna go. 1346 01:05:00,040 --> 01:05:00,520 Speaker 4: That so for this. 1347 01:05:00,800 --> 01:05:03,680 Speaker 3: But there's But what is weird about it is that 1348 01:05:03,800 --> 01:05:05,480 Speaker 3: when I walked in and looked at it, I was like, 1349 01:05:05,640 --> 01:05:08,000 Speaker 3: how did does it? How did no one's announced this? 1350 01:05:08,080 --> 01:05:10,320 Speaker 3: And I just googled it. I was like, Woolworths bricks. 1351 01:05:10,520 --> 01:05:13,880 Speaker 3: There is there appears to be hardly any publicity whatsoever 1352 01:05:14,360 --> 01:05:16,640 Speaker 3: about the fact that Wilworth's is running out this awesome 1353 01:05:16,800 --> 01:05:20,240 Speaker 3: giveaway promotion thing. I suspect that what's happened is that 1354 01:05:20,320 --> 01:05:22,920 Speaker 3: we have been so mean to them about their stink 1355 01:05:23,000 --> 01:05:25,400 Speaker 3: giveaways that now they're not even sure if they should 1356 01:05:25,400 --> 01:05:27,400 Speaker 3: tell us about their good giveaways. They're just like, just 1357 01:05:27,400 --> 01:05:28,520 Speaker 3: don't worry about it, just run. 1358 01:05:29,000 --> 01:05:32,160 Speaker 20: Half hard launching. Yeah, hey, I quite soft launched. I 1359 01:05:32,280 --> 01:05:35,280 Speaker 20: quite enjoyed the minecraft qbs. I mean, I've still got mine. 1360 01:05:35,480 --> 01:05:38,160 Speaker 20: I'm honestly, I'm talking. 1361 01:05:40,200 --> 01:05:41,000 Speaker 1: No lame. 1362 01:05:41,320 --> 01:05:43,080 Speaker 3: He has got a collection. It's like like the Great 1363 01:05:43,120 --> 01:05:47,560 Speaker 3: wallock Shite Great Wall of China. Anyway, listen, I don't 1364 01:05:47,600 --> 01:05:49,800 Speaker 3: want to claim the credit for this, but I did 1365 01:05:49,920 --> 01:05:53,040 Speaker 3: go to a meeting with the Woolworth's New Zealand boss 1366 01:05:53,200 --> 01:05:55,520 Speaker 3: last year. I had a coffee and top of my 1367 01:05:55,600 --> 01:05:57,560 Speaker 3: agenda I had a list of things. On top of 1368 01:05:57,600 --> 01:06:01,640 Speaker 3: my agenda was improve your giveaways and lock. I'm just saying, 1369 01:06:02,480 --> 01:06:06,160 Speaker 3: is it a coincidence or you know? Anyway, on the 1370 01:06:06,240 --> 01:06:08,960 Speaker 3: peaches dumping from China, they weren't imagining it. What he 1371 01:06:09,160 --> 01:06:12,440 Speaker 3: wasn't making up China was dumping teaches here. Scottsmson, the 1372 01:06:12,480 --> 01:06:15,560 Speaker 3: Minister next News took ZBO. 1373 01:06:21,320 --> 01:06:25,120 Speaker 1: What's up, what's down? What were the major calls and 1374 01:06:25,280 --> 01:06:28,400 Speaker 1: how will it affect the economy? The big business questions. 1375 01:06:28,640 --> 01:06:31,520 Speaker 1: On the Business Hour we had the duplicy Allen and 1376 01:06:31,800 --> 01:06:36,120 Speaker 1: Mass Insurance and investments, your futures hid good hands used? 1377 01:06:36,160 --> 01:06:40,720 Speaker 3: DOORGSB even in coming up in the next hour, Jamie 1378 01:06:40,760 --> 01:06:42,360 Speaker 3: McKay is going to give us an overview of the 1379 01:06:42,440 --> 01:06:45,160 Speaker 3: milk market. Sam Dickie's going to explain what on earth 1380 01:06:45,240 --> 01:06:48,000 Speaker 3: happened to the price of gold last weekend and silver 1381 01:06:48,080 --> 01:06:50,360 Speaker 3: as well, And then we'll go the UK with Ender 1382 01:06:50,400 --> 01:06:53,040 Speaker 3: Brady and just get the latest on the unfolding drama 1383 01:06:53,120 --> 01:06:55,919 Speaker 3: that is Peter Mandelsson right now at seven past six. 1384 01:06:56,000 --> 01:06:58,200 Speaker 3: Now do you remember last year when what he said 1385 01:06:58,240 --> 01:07:00,000 Speaker 3: that it had to cancel those contracts with the peace 1386 01:07:00,000 --> 01:07:02,440 Speaker 3: Each growers in Hawks Bay because of foreign dumping. It 1387 01:07:02,520 --> 01:07:04,920 Speaker 3: then accused Chinese companies of dumping their product in the 1388 01:07:05,000 --> 01:07:07,640 Speaker 3: market and harming our industry. Well, it turns out what 1389 01:07:07,840 --> 01:07:10,600 Speaker 3: he's was right. The government has done a little investigation 1390 01:07:10,720 --> 01:07:13,920 Speaker 3: found Chinese fruit company j Andng International had been dumping 1391 01:07:13,960 --> 01:07:16,760 Speaker 3: products in the market and causing material damage to the industry. 1392 01:07:17,280 --> 01:07:20,000 Speaker 3: Minister of Commerce and Consumer Affairs Scott Simpson is with 1393 01:07:20,200 --> 01:07:24,640 Speaker 3: US High Scott Hi here that do how significant was 1394 01:07:24,680 --> 01:07:25,760 Speaker 3: the damage that was caused? 1395 01:07:26,800 --> 01:07:30,360 Speaker 17: Well, the actual significance has yet to be finally determined. 1396 01:07:30,400 --> 01:07:33,520 Speaker 17: So the first step has been taken. Heinds what he 1397 01:07:33,680 --> 01:07:38,880 Speaker 17: made a complaint about dumping of Chinese imported peaches. MB 1398 01:07:39,000 --> 01:07:43,280 Speaker 17: officials start a prescribed investigation and all this stuff is 1399 01:07:44,480 --> 01:07:47,880 Speaker 17: prescribed in statute, so there is a process involved. They 1400 01:07:48,000 --> 01:07:51,320 Speaker 17: go through that and then they prepare for me a 1401 01:07:51,400 --> 01:07:55,280 Speaker 17: preliminary finding, a provisional finding that there was dumping from 1402 01:07:55,480 --> 01:08:00,120 Speaker 17: just one Chinese importer. And I hasten to add that 1403 01:08:00,240 --> 01:08:04,080 Speaker 17: it's not all Chinese peaches. It's not all imported peaches 1404 01:08:04,080 --> 01:08:06,240 Speaker 17: as well. You know, we import peaches from many countries 1405 01:08:06,280 --> 01:08:08,720 Speaker 17: around the world. So in this one case, there has 1406 01:08:08,760 --> 01:08:11,680 Speaker 17: been a provisional finding that this company J and G 1407 01:08:12,320 --> 01:08:16,479 Speaker 17: have dumped product into the New Zealand marketplace. And now 1408 01:08:16,720 --> 01:08:20,240 Speaker 17: what happens after the provisional findings we made mbigo away 1409 01:08:20,360 --> 01:08:23,040 Speaker 17: do some more detail work, find out whether there has 1410 01:08:23,160 --> 01:08:27,680 Speaker 17: been material harm, whether there's a public interest test has 1411 01:08:27,720 --> 01:08:30,240 Speaker 17: been applied, and then a final decisions made in a 1412 01:08:30,320 --> 01:08:33,600 Speaker 17: couple of months time, and final decision on what on 1413 01:08:33,760 --> 01:08:38,360 Speaker 17: whether to impose a duty and extra duty on peaches 1414 01:08:38,400 --> 01:08:40,760 Speaker 17: that are imported by this J and G company. So 1415 01:08:41,120 --> 01:08:46,240 Speaker 17: that's how we would put to write the price differential. 1416 01:08:46,560 --> 01:08:51,120 Speaker 17: So effectively you're charging them at the border a percentage 1417 01:08:51,160 --> 01:08:55,479 Speaker 17: extra to make their product competitive in a way that's 1418 01:08:55,560 --> 01:08:56,080 Speaker 17: not dumped. 1419 01:08:56,280 --> 01:09:00,599 Speaker 3: Okay, So but this is this would be presumable imports 1420 01:09:00,640 --> 01:09:03,760 Speaker 3: from that point on worth, it's onwards. It's not retrospective, right, 1421 01:09:03,800 --> 01:09:06,600 Speaker 3: whatever damage they've already done goes kind of I suppose unpunished. 1422 01:09:07,360 --> 01:09:09,960 Speaker 17: Oh well, yes, indeed. But you can be assured that 1423 01:09:10,360 --> 01:09:14,880 Speaker 17: businesses like Hineswadi are very good at spotting behavior of 1424 01:09:14,960 --> 01:09:18,160 Speaker 17: the sort. It's not completely uncommon. We get probably one 1425 01:09:18,320 --> 01:09:21,040 Speaker 17: or two a year cases of dumping of product or 1426 01:09:21,280 --> 01:09:24,920 Speaker 17: not just peatures, a whole range of stuff. So there 1427 01:09:25,000 --> 01:09:27,720 Speaker 17: is a process. It is a prescribed thing and MB 1428 01:09:27,800 --> 01:09:30,040 Speaker 17: officials work their way through it, as do I as minister. 1429 01:09:30,200 --> 01:09:32,080 Speaker 3: Okay, do you know how long it had been going 1430 01:09:32,160 --> 01:09:34,000 Speaker 3: on for? When did it start? 1431 01:09:34,880 --> 01:09:35,080 Speaker 11: Yeah? 1432 01:09:35,120 --> 01:09:38,840 Speaker 17: Well, there've been problem with peatures for some years. There 1433 01:09:39,040 --> 01:09:42,080 Speaker 17: was a previous case I think back in about twenty 1434 01:09:42,160 --> 01:09:47,320 Speaker 17: fifteen twenty sixteen, a case of dumping was found with 1435 01:09:47,439 --> 01:09:50,760 Speaker 17: peaches that got remedied. But again it's a matter of 1436 01:09:50,880 --> 01:09:55,400 Speaker 17: being constantly alert, constantly vigilant because of course reasonably large 1437 01:09:55,479 --> 01:09:58,679 Speaker 17: volumes of imported peaches coming into the country every year 1438 01:09:59,479 --> 01:10:02,640 Speaker 17: and price fluctuate. They go up, they go down, some 1439 01:10:03,880 --> 01:10:07,479 Speaker 17: traders disappear, new entrants arrive, So it's a matter of 1440 01:10:07,560 --> 01:10:09,679 Speaker 17: being constantly alert and constantly vi jil. 1441 01:10:09,640 --> 01:10:11,800 Speaker 3: Okay, I mean, because I'm looking at a graph that 1442 01:10:11,920 --> 01:10:14,000 Speaker 3: newsroom dot co dot z has published and published and 1443 01:10:14,040 --> 01:10:16,400 Speaker 3: it looks like the dumping might have started. Oh I 1444 01:10:16,439 --> 01:10:18,720 Speaker 3: don't want to lie, but I mean it might have 1445 01:10:18,800 --> 01:10:21,120 Speaker 3: even been Q four of twenty twenty three when it 1446 01:10:21,200 --> 01:10:23,080 Speaker 3: started taking off. So it's been going on for a while. 1447 01:10:23,360 --> 01:10:26,519 Speaker 3: So our system whereby we wait for a complaint and 1448 01:10:26,520 --> 01:10:28,320 Speaker 3: then we do an investigation and then we think about 1449 01:10:28,360 --> 01:10:31,560 Speaker 3: applying some duties and stuff. It's quite clunky, isn't it. 1450 01:10:31,640 --> 01:10:34,040 Speaker 3: Like it takes a long time to remedy something. 1451 01:10:33,920 --> 01:10:38,360 Speaker 17: Like this, longer than many people would want. But there 1452 01:10:38,479 --> 01:10:42,439 Speaker 17: does need to be pretty careful and thorough investigation done, 1453 01:10:42,840 --> 01:10:45,759 Speaker 17: and sometimes that involves getting a lot of data from overseas. 1454 01:10:46,240 --> 01:10:50,759 Speaker 17: You know, it's relatively easy to make an allegation of dumping, 1455 01:10:51,080 --> 01:10:54,120 Speaker 17: but checking it out.

Audrey Young's 1469 01:11:29,880 --> 01:11:32,400 Speaker 3: newsletter in the Herald on Herald dot cot on Zeta's 1470 01:11:32,400 --> 01:11:34,800 Speaker 3: fascinating and she's pointed out something that's really interesting from 1471 01:11:34,880 --> 01:11:37,320 Speaker 3: Chris Hopkins at White Tonguey today, which is that he 1472 01:11:37,479 --> 01:11:41,280 Speaker 3: has already signaled from today that if he was to 1473 01:11:41,400 --> 01:11:44,760 Speaker 3: win this year's upcoming election, he will not be unwinding 1474 01:11:44,840 --> 01:11:47,600 Speaker 3: everything this current government has done race relations wise. He 1475 01:11:47,640 --> 01:11:50,000 Speaker 3: says we are not going to spend the next three 1476 01:11:50,160 --> 01:11:53,719 Speaker 3: years undoing everything that was done over the last three years, 1477 01:11:54,160 --> 01:11:56,920 Speaker 3: so we will be prioritizing the things that we will change. 1478 01:11:57,320 --> 01:12:01,080 Speaker 3: That doesn't mean reversing everything we oppose. Now he's talking 1479 01:12:01,120 --> 01:12:03,479 Speaker 3: about everything the coalition government's done, right, But if you're 1480 01:12:03,479 --> 01:12:05,360 Speaker 3: standing there talking to EE leaders and this is what 1481 01:12:05,479 --> 01:12:07,400 Speaker 3: you say to EE leaders, then what he is telling 1482 01:12:07,479 --> 01:12:10,720 Speaker 3: EWIE leaders is when we reverse all the things that 1483 01:12:10,800 --> 01:12:13,200 Speaker 3: we don't like that the coalition government has done, yr 1484 01:12:13,320 --> 01:12:15,040 Speaker 3: race relations is going to be some of the things 1485 01:12:15,080 --> 01:12:19,000 Speaker 3: we just leave exactly how it is. Basically, as as 1486 01:12:19,040 --> 01:12:22,400 Speaker 3: Audrey says, he's telling EWE leaders to lower their expectations. 1487 01:12:22,439 --> 01:12:25,960 Speaker 3: And also what he's doing is he's acknowledging that part 1488 01:12:26,040 --> 01:12:29,040 Speaker 3: of the reason that the Coalition government has been able 1489 01:12:29,160 --> 01:12:31,719 Speaker 3: to unwind a lot of the crazy race relations stuff 1490 01:12:31,840 --> 01:12:35,080 Speaker 3: that Jasinda Adirne's government did was because Jasinda Adirn and 1491 01:12:35,160 --> 01:12:38,519 Speaker 3: Nanayam Ahuta went too far. They basically went so far 1492 01:12:39,120 --> 01:12:42,839 Speaker 3: down their path of partnership and special treatment and special 1493 01:12:43,120 --> 01:12:45,680 Speaker 3: special rights and stuff. They went so far that it 1494 01:12:45,840 --> 01:12:47,920 Speaker 3: drove everyone else who was watching it and did not 1495 01:12:48,000 --> 01:12:49,680 Speaker 3: believe it was the right thing to do nutty to 1496 01:12:49,800 --> 01:12:52,000 Speaker 3: the point where it gave the coalition government the ability 1497 01:12:52,040 --> 01:12:55,560 Speaker 3: to unwind it. So anyway, if you were worried about that, 1498 01:12:56,080 --> 01:12:57,360 Speaker 3: and if this is an important thing to you, I 1499 01:12:57,400 --> 01:12:58,760 Speaker 3: think you will take some heart from the fact that 1500 01:12:58,840 --> 01:13:00,720 Speaker 3: he's already signaled a lot of it is just going 1501 01:13:00,760 --> 01:13:02,920 Speaker 3: to be left the way that it is fourteen past six. 1502 01:13:04,320 --> 01:13:08,760 Speaker 1: It's the Heather Duplessy Allen Drive Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio, 1503 01:13:08,880 --> 01:13:14,839 Speaker 1: empowered by Newstalks EBB.

How are we shaping up for the peak 1515 01:13:43,360 --> 01:13:44,840 Speaker 3: season and the meat market? 1516 01:13:45,960 --> 01:13:46,200 Speaker 1: Well? 1517 01:13:46,479 --> 01:13:49,680 Speaker 2: God, all this rain around the country, even though it's 1518 01:13:49,760 --> 01:13:52,960 Speaker 2: caused a lot of damage in places like the East 1519 01:13:53,040 --> 01:13:55,720 Speaker 2: Coast and Northland, But what it's done for a lot 1520 01:13:55,760 --> 01:14:00,120 Speaker 2: of the country, especially the North Island, has proved to 1521 01:14:01,560 --> 01:14:04,639 Speaker 2: provided a very good grass growing season. Now the issue 1522 01:14:04,720 --> 01:14:07,040 Speaker 2: with that is from the meat company's point of view. 1523 01:14:07,160 --> 01:14:11,200 Speaker 2: Normally this is kind of peak processing time for the 1524 01:14:11,280 --> 01:14:15,880 Speaker 2: meat industry February March April, when the lambs and the cattle, 1525 01:14:16,080 --> 01:14:17,440 Speaker 2: especially the lambs. 1526 01:14:17,880 --> 01:14:19,200 Speaker 9: Go to the works. 1527 01:14:19,520 --> 01:14:22,240 Speaker 2: But the farmers are hanging on because they've got plenty 1528 01:14:22,280 --> 01:14:25,519 Speaker 2: of grass. They're just trying to put more kilos on 1529 01:14:25,600 --> 01:14:27,920 Speaker 2: their lambs. And why wouldn't you For lamb's worth eleven 1530 01:14:27,960 --> 01:14:30,200 Speaker 2: dollars a kilo, If you can do that in a 1531 01:14:30,280 --> 01:14:33,360 Speaker 2: couple of weeks, why wouldn't you hang on and get 1532 01:14:33,439 --> 01:14:36,640 Speaker 2: another eleven dollars. So the problem is the stock's not 1533 01:14:36,800 --> 01:14:39,439 Speaker 2: coming forward to the meat works. The prices are really good. 1534 01:14:39,479 --> 01:14:42,400 Speaker 2: The prices are really strong for store stock. This is 1535 01:14:42,439 --> 01:14:45,360 Speaker 2: the stuff you buy off another farmer to fatten and 1536 01:14:45,479 --> 01:14:48,400 Speaker 2: then send to the works. You know, Like that's twenty 1537 01:14:48,479 --> 01:14:51,240 Speaker 2: five to fifty dollars ahead higher than last year for 1538 01:14:51,360 --> 01:14:54,479 Speaker 2: store lambs. As I said, prime lamb is worth nearly 1539 01:14:54,560 --> 01:14:57,160 Speaker 2: eleven dollars a kilogram to a farmer when he sends 1540 01:14:57,200 --> 01:15:00,160 Speaker 2: it he or she sends it to the works. Two 1541 01:15:00,280 --> 01:15:03,320 Speaker 2: years ago, those same lambs were only worth six dollars 1542 01:15:03,400 --> 01:15:06,360 Speaker 2: a kerelow. The other one is the casts for age us. 1543 01:15:06,479 --> 01:15:09,920 Speaker 2: This is the old ewes heather. Often farmers will ditch 1544 01:15:10,000 --> 01:15:12,320 Speaker 2: their old ewes that might have one more year left 1545 01:15:12,400 --> 01:15:14,479 Speaker 2: in them, and another farmer will pick them up, farm 1546 01:15:14,560 --> 01:15:16,439 Speaker 2: them for a year, get a lamb out of them, 1547 01:15:16,479 --> 01:15:18,400 Speaker 2: and then send them off to the works. But the 1548 01:15:18,520 --> 01:15:21,479 Speaker 2: demand is so high for mutton at the moment that 1549 01:15:21,760 --> 01:15:24,960 Speaker 2: the freezing works or the meat companies are picking off 1550 01:15:25,000 --> 01:15:28,280 Speaker 2: those ewes and the farmers can't compete for them. Once again, 1551 01:15:28,360 --> 01:15:31,840 Speaker 2: the price for mutton. If you love a good mutton pie, 1552 01:15:32,280 --> 01:15:35,320 Speaker 2: six dollars fifty your kilogram big thirty kilogram plus you, 1553 01:15:35,640 --> 01:15:38,599 Speaker 2: there's two hundred bucks for your you as well as 1554 01:15:38,640 --> 01:15:41,240 Speaker 2: your lamb. And the other one is of course store 1555 01:15:41,320 --> 01:15:45,920 Speaker 2: cattle or kit the cattle full stop prime stairs seven 1556 01:15:46,000 --> 01:15:48,920 Speaker 2: dollars a kilogram a year ago, they're up to nearly 1557 01:15:49,000 --> 01:15:52,200 Speaker 2: ten dollars or nine dollars fifty. So look, there's lots 1558 01:15:52,240 --> 01:15:54,599 Speaker 2: of grass out there, but some of the processes are 1559 01:15:54,640 --> 01:15:57,679 Speaker 2: warning the softening a webit coming in the lamb market. 1560 01:15:57,720 --> 01:15:59,200 Speaker 2: And the other thing you need to keep an eye on, 1561 01:15:59,280 --> 01:16:03,000 Speaker 2: heather the exchange rate. It's strengthened against the US dollar 1562 01:16:03,280 --> 01:16:07,000 Speaker 2: above sixty US cents now, so obviously that makes returns 1563 01:16:07,040 --> 01:16:07,679 Speaker 2: a little less. 1564 01:16:08,760 --> 01:16:10,000 Speaker 3: What do you make of the milk market. 1565 01:16:11,600 --> 01:16:14,000 Speaker 2: Well, I don't know. I was worried, to be perfectly honestly, 1566 01:16:14,120 --> 01:16:17,040 Speaker 2: that we spoke on Tuesday, and the indications were that 1567 01:16:17,160 --> 01:16:19,760 Speaker 2: we might get a two percent lift, which would have 1568 01:16:19,800 --> 01:16:23,479 Speaker 2: been great, third lift in a row. On Wednesday morning, 1569 01:16:23,640 --> 01:16:27,200 Speaker 2: our time, when we eventually did get our GDT auction results, 1570 01:16:27,240 --> 01:16:30,360 Speaker 2: there was a glitch in the in the computer system. 1571 01:16:30,560 --> 01:16:33,920 Speaker 2: It was way above that six point seven percent a 1572 01:16:34,040 --> 01:16:36,800 Speaker 2: whole milk powder the most important one up five point 1573 01:16:36,880 --> 01:16:39,600 Speaker 2: three percent skim milk powder, which is really driving a 1574 01:16:39,640 --> 01:16:44,599 Speaker 2: lot of us. Second most important ingredient are ten point 1575 01:16:44,920 --> 01:16:48,200 Speaker 2: six percent. Look at at the moment off the back 1576 01:16:48,240 --> 01:16:51,320 Speaker 2: of those nine falls in a row towards or to 1577 01:16:51,439 --> 01:16:55,160 Speaker 2: round out twenty twenty five, Fonterra had dropped its midpoint 1578 01:16:55,240 --> 01:16:56,320 Speaker 2: to nine dollars. 1579 01:16:56,120 --> 01:16:56,599 Speaker 9: A kere low. 1580 01:16:57,320 --> 01:17:02,040 Speaker 2: Open Country Dairy, second biggest dairy company in the country's 1581 01:17:02,040 --> 01:17:04,400 Speaker 2: got a weighted average at the moment of about nine 1582 01:17:05,000 --> 01:17:08,200 Speaker 2: dollars thirty now. Mike McIntyre at Jardin who I Use 1583 01:17:09,000 --> 01:17:11,960 Speaker 2: says there's absolutely room now for the milk price to 1584 01:17:12,080 --> 01:17:15,400 Speaker 2: lift back up, with the market already looking a lot 1585 01:17:15,479 --> 01:17:18,280 Speaker 2: smoother than it did six weeks ago, which begs the 1586 01:17:18,400 --> 01:17:21,840 Speaker 2: question which I threw at Fonterra on yesterday's show. Didn't 1587 01:17:21,880 --> 01:17:24,400 Speaker 2: really get an answer, Heather, but it's ten bucks back 1588 01:17:24,439 --> 01:17:26,120 Speaker 2: on the table, hope. 1589 01:17:26,160 --> 01:17:28,639 Speaker 3: So hey, thank you as always, Jamie, enjoy your long weekend. 1590 01:17:28,680 --> 01:17:33,519 Speaker 3: That's Jamie McKay, host of the Country Now Bunnings. Bunnings 1591 01:17:33,560 --> 01:17:36,000 Speaker 3: has just won a significant legal battle over the facial 1592 01:17:36,040 --> 01:17:39,759 Speaker 3: recognition technology that it uses in Australia, which is important 1593 01:17:39,800 --> 01:17:42,720 Speaker 3: for us because our own supermarkets and other retailers here 1594 01:17:42,800 --> 01:17:45,599 Speaker 3: want to be able to use it as well. In Ozzie, 1595 01:17:46,000 --> 01:17:47,840 Speaker 3: they've been doing it for a few years. I think 1596 01:17:47,880 --> 01:17:49,640 Speaker 3: it might have been twenty eighteen to twenty one or 1597 01:17:49,680 --> 01:17:51,439 Speaker 3: something like that, but then they got in trouble for 1598 01:17:51,560 --> 01:17:54,960 Speaker 3: using the CCTV on the customers from their version of 1599 01:17:54,960 --> 01:17:58,479 Speaker 3: the Privacy Commissioner and the Privacy their version of the 1600 01:17:58,479 --> 01:18:01,200 Speaker 3: Privacy Commissioner ruled that bunning had breached the privacy of 1601 01:18:01,280 --> 01:18:04,920 Speaker 3: all of these customers by trialing the technology without basically 1602 01:18:05,040 --> 01:18:08,840 Speaker 3: telling them. Now, another body altogether, which is the Administrative 1603 01:18:08,960 --> 01:18:11,599 Speaker 3: Review Tribunal, found that Bunning's actually doesn't have to ask 1604 01:18:11,760 --> 01:18:14,840 Speaker 3: customers for consent to be filmed in the stores if 1605 01:18:15,040 --> 01:18:18,120 Speaker 3: the reason that they're filming is for the specific purpose 1606 01:18:18,160 --> 01:18:21,040 Speaker 3: of combating retail crime and protecting staff and customers from 1607 01:18:21,080 --> 01:18:23,240 Speaker 3: violence and intimidation, which is clearly what they're trying to do. 1608 01:18:23,600 --> 01:18:25,680 Speaker 3: So they have at this stage at least got the 1609 01:18:25,760 --> 01:18:28,400 Speaker 3: all clear to carry it on, which will be I imagine, 1610 01:18:28,560 --> 01:18:32,519 Speaker 3: be greeted with some relief by retailers over here. Most 1611 01:18:32,600 --> 01:18:34,880 Speaker 3: of us, I think would agree with this. Let's see 1612 01:18:34,880 --> 01:18:36,679 Speaker 3: where it goes twenty two past six. 1613 01:18:37,280 --> 01:18:41,080 Speaker 1: Whether it's macro micro or just plain economics, all on 1614 01:18:41,320 --> 01:18:45,080 Speaker 1: the business hour with the DUP cur and MAS insurance 1615 01:18:45,160 --> 01:18:49,120 Speaker 1: and investments, your futures in good hands, news talks envy. 1616 01:18:50,080 --> 01:18:52,840 Speaker 3: Now I was singing the praises obviously of the conspiracy 1617 01:18:52,920 --> 01:18:55,680 Speaker 3: theorists earlier for getting us the Epstein files because we 1618 01:18:55,720 --> 01:18:57,920 Speaker 3: could see how mucky this business is with labor and 1619 01:18:58,040 --> 01:19:00,639 Speaker 3: Keir Starmer. And actually there's a question in Peter Manderson 1620 01:19:00,680 --> 01:19:03,479 Speaker 3: when enders with us shortly, I'd love to know because 1621 01:19:03,479 --> 01:19:05,920 Speaker 3: it's Kierstarmer boy, oh boy. I mean, that guy was 1622 01:19:05,960 --> 01:19:08,360 Speaker 3: already in a lot of trouble and I think we 1623 01:19:08,439 --> 01:19:11,360 Speaker 3: could all say is probably going to end well, probably 1624 01:19:11,560 --> 01:19:13,760 Speaker 3: going to end up being a one termer if he 1625 01:19:13,840 --> 01:19:15,720 Speaker 3: even makes it to the end of the term. But 1626 01:19:15,880 --> 01:19:17,920 Speaker 3: surely the Mandalsoon thing has made it worse. But how 1627 01:19:18,000 --> 01:19:19,439 Speaker 3: much worse, I don't know. We'll talk to Ender when 1628 01:19:19,439 --> 01:19:23,120 Speaker 3: he's with us, But there is some some of the 1629 01:19:23,200 --> 01:19:25,840 Speaker 3: Epstein's stuff is just a kind and I think one 1630 01:19:25,880 --> 01:19:27,479 Speaker 3: of the lads in the Huartle had kind of hinted 1631 01:19:27,520 --> 01:19:29,840 Speaker 3: at this before. It's just sort of we're just being 1632 01:19:30,520 --> 01:19:36,080 Speaker 3: moralistic about it. Like for example, Casey Wassaman, who's the 1633 01:19:36,240 --> 01:19:39,519 Speaker 3: chair of the Olympics Committee for LA getting it ready 1634 01:19:39,520 --> 01:19:42,000 Speaker 3: for twenty twenty eight, there is pressure on him now 1635 01:19:42,080 --> 01:19:44,320 Speaker 3: to step down from that role because there are emails 1636 01:19:44,360 --> 01:19:46,479 Speaker 3: that have surfaced between him and Gilain Maxwell as in 1637 01:19:46,520 --> 01:19:50,040 Speaker 3: Epstein's Weird Girlfriend. The emails are really old, like they 1638 01:19:50,160 --> 01:19:52,320 Speaker 3: date back to two thousand and three, right, so they're 1639 01:19:52,320 --> 01:19:56,080 Speaker 3: more than twenty years old and just flirty. Wassaman, one 1640 01:19:56,080 --> 01:20:00,240 Speaker 3: of the emails, probably the luckiest email. Wassaman tells Gallaine Max, Well, 1641 01:20:00,280 --> 01:20:02,320 Speaker 3: I think of you all the time, So what do 1642 01:20:02,439 --> 01:20:04,000 Speaker 3: I have to do to see you in a tight 1643 01:20:04,200 --> 01:20:09,840 Speaker 3: leather outfit? Kind of funny because imagine if you sent 1644 01:20:09,920 --> 01:20:13,520 Speaker 3: that to somebody and it gets that's embarrassing. It's really embarrassing. 1645 01:20:13,760 --> 01:20:16,200 Speaker 3: But that's all it is. It's just embarrassing, Like you 1646 01:20:16,240 --> 01:20:18,200 Speaker 3: don't want to see somebody flirting. Eh, gross, you don't 1647 01:20:18,200 --> 01:20:19,800 Speaker 3: want to see that kind of stuff. But does he 1648 01:20:19,880 --> 01:20:22,599 Speaker 3: now need to lose his job about that? I mean, sure, 1649 01:20:22,640 --> 01:20:26,160 Speaker 3: it's undermining his author It will absolutely undermine his authority, 1650 01:20:26,520 --> 01:20:30,200 Speaker 3: absolutely will. It will not be great for LA twenty eight, 1651 01:20:30,520 --> 01:20:33,880 Speaker 3: But it's also not that big a deal like Wow, shock, horror, 1652 01:20:34,040 --> 01:20:35,920 Speaker 3: man flirts with woman. You know, it's not that big 1653 01:20:35,920 --> 01:20:37,479 Speaker 3: a deal that he needs to lose his job over 1654 01:20:37,560 --> 01:20:39,240 Speaker 3: I would have thought six twenty six. 1655 01:20:40,000 --> 01:20:42,759 Speaker 1: There's no business like show business. 1656 01:20:44,240 --> 01:20:46,000 Speaker 3: So, as I tell you, the Super Bowl is coming up, 1657 01:20:46,040 --> 01:20:48,640 Speaker 3: and the website dedicated to showcasing these ads has now 1658 01:20:48,680 --> 01:20:51,040 Speaker 3: been updated with the latest batch. One that is already 1659 01:20:51,120 --> 01:20:54,920 Speaker 3: going viral is the Pringles ad featuring Sabrina Carpenter, in 1660 01:20:55,000 --> 01:20:58,360 Speaker 3: which she has a new boyfriend Pringalio, which is a 1661 01:20:58,400 --> 01:21:00,479 Speaker 3: boyfriend that she built for herself out of Springles. 1662 01:21:00,880 --> 01:21:02,160 Speaker 1: I'm so tired of boys. 1663 01:21:02,640 --> 01:21:04,000 Speaker 3: I need a man be. 1664 01:21:11,040 --> 01:21:11,679 Speaker 6: Dangle Leo. 1665 01:21:13,720 --> 01:21:16,200 Speaker 3: Now already people are saying, oh, this looks a lot 1666 01:21:16,240 --> 01:21:19,160 Speaker 3: like her music video for Manchild. That is intentional, that 1667 01:21:19,320 --> 01:21:22,200 Speaker 3: is deliberate. Ben at Fleck is back in the Dunkin 1668 01:21:22,280 --> 01:21:25,400 Speaker 3: Donuts ad. He's done it for four years now. This 1669 01:21:25,520 --> 01:21:28,000 Speaker 3: is the fourth year. This time he shows a VHS 1670 01:21:28,120 --> 01:21:31,519 Speaker 3: tape labeled Network Pilot ninety five as a ninety ninety 1671 01:21:31,520 --> 01:21:35,080 Speaker 3: five version three to other stars Jennifer Anison and Matt LeBlanc, 1672 01:21:35,280 --> 01:21:37,320 Speaker 3: and he's making a real effort to connect with the 1673 01:21:37,400 --> 01:21:38,120 Speaker 3: younger audience. 1674 01:21:38,840 --> 01:21:41,920 Speaker 1: Jan Matt, I got a pitch for you. What's all? 1675 01:21:42,000 --> 01:21:42,360 Speaker 11: This is new? 1676 01:21:42,560 --> 01:21:44,719 Speaker 1: What's cringe as good? What's up is down? 1677 01:21:44,960 --> 01:21:47,040 Speaker 4: We're sitting on a gold mine six. 1678 01:21:47,040 --> 01:21:50,679 Speaker 3: Seven Yeah, And people say it is just unbelievably cringey, 1679 01:21:50,800 --> 01:21:52,160 Speaker 3: like if your dad tried to say that to you. 1680 01:21:52,520 --> 01:21:55,479 Speaker 3: And then there is the Jurassic Park ripoffs starring Laura Dern, 1681 01:21:55,600 --> 01:21:58,280 Speaker 3: Sam Neil, and Jeff Goblum, who were all obviously in 1682 01:21:58,360 --> 01:22:01,200 Speaker 3: the original Jurassic Park. The base plot plot is that 1683 01:22:01,280 --> 01:22:04,320 Speaker 3: the park loses its online connection, the fencer start to fail, 1684 01:22:04,360 --> 01:22:06,439 Speaker 3: the Dinos are going to get out, but thanks to Exfinity, 1685 01:22:06,520 --> 01:22:08,400 Speaker 3: the park quickly gets back up and running. 1686 01:22:09,160 --> 01:22:12,479 Speaker 1: And can't get Jurassic Park back on the lane. This 1687 01:22:12,680 --> 01:22:15,720 Speaker 1: place is awesome. By the way, you should have pluged this. 1688 01:22:15,760 --> 01:22:22,760 Speaker 3: In now if you want to go see all of 1689 01:22:22,800 --> 01:22:24,400 Speaker 3: the ads. Remember they're all going to run during the 1690 01:22:24,439 --> 01:22:27,560 Speaker 3: Super Bowl, but they are all available online already. And 1691 01:22:27,920 --> 01:22:29,640 Speaker 3: if you know one thing about the Super Bowl is 1692 01:22:29,680 --> 01:22:31,320 Speaker 3: that the ads are almost as big a deal. So 1693 01:22:31,439 --> 01:22:33,920 Speaker 3: it is worth going and spending an evening. Don't got 1694 01:22:33,960 --> 01:22:36,200 Speaker 3: work tomorrow, so you can just pull yourself a nice little, 1695 01:22:36,360 --> 01:22:39,200 Speaker 3: nice little wine, maybe a little side Gin and Tonic, 1696 01:22:39,520 --> 01:22:42,120 Speaker 3: a little busy little bubbs whatever in to pull one 1697 01:22:42,160 --> 01:22:44,599 Speaker 3: of those, sit back and just watch ad after ad 1698 01:22:44,680 --> 01:22:48,120 Speaker 3: after ad after ad. Ads can still be fantastic. 1699 01:22:48,400 --> 01:23:00,479 Speaker 1: News is next, everything from SMEs to the Big Brits, 1700 01:23:00,600 --> 01:23:03,840 Speaker 1: the Business Hour with the Heather Duplessy Allen and Mass 1701 01:23:03,960 --> 01:23:08,240 Speaker 1: Insurance and investments, your futures in good hands, used talks, 1702 01:23:08,280 --> 01:23:08,559 Speaker 1: I'd be. 1703 01:23:11,280 --> 01:23:12,320 Speaker 2: Right, just put us out of. 1704 01:23:12,320 --> 01:23:14,559 Speaker 3: The UK and ten minutes time talk about I'll tell 1705 01:23:14,560 --> 01:23:17,920 Speaker 3: you what I mean, talk about stuffing up an announcement. 1706 01:23:18,280 --> 01:23:20,680 Speaker 3: This is the announcement of Penny Henade quitting and the 1707 01:23:20,720 --> 01:23:23,320 Speaker 3: way that Chippy stuffed it up. Chippy was still being 1708 01:23:23,400 --> 01:23:25,920 Speaker 3: asked today about it, and he was still adamant. There 1709 01:23:26,000 --> 01:23:28,400 Speaker 3: was no friction between the pair, saying it was Peney's decision, 1710 01:23:28,439 --> 01:23:30,439 Speaker 3: which I think we can all say pretty much no 1711 01:23:30,520 --> 01:23:34,000 Speaker 3: one believes a anyway. It's a lesson in if the 1712 01:23:34,240 --> 01:23:37,559 Speaker 3: bargo is broken and people already know, don't pretend they 1713 01:23:37,600 --> 01:23:39,759 Speaker 3: don't know, and just pivot to answering the questions instead 1714 01:23:39,760 --> 01:23:42,040 Speaker 3: of being weird about it. It's basically Hepkins's fault that 1715 01:23:42,120 --> 01:23:44,600 Speaker 3: it's ended up like this. Twenty four away from seven. 1716 01:23:45,040 --> 01:23:47,679 Speaker 1: Heather Duplessy allen so Gold had. 1717 01:23:47,600 --> 01:23:50,920 Speaker 3: Five six hundred dollars in January and silver almost doubled 1718 01:23:50,960 --> 01:23:53,599 Speaker 3: in price in a month, and then they crashed twenty 1719 01:23:53,640 --> 01:23:57,080 Speaker 3: to forty percent practically overnight last weekend. Monitoring all of 1720 01:23:57,120 --> 01:24:00,479 Speaker 3: this for US is Sam Dicky from Fisher Funds. Hi, Sam, Hey, 1721 01:24:00,520 --> 01:24:03,200 Speaker 3: you either what's going on here? Is this just panic 1722 01:24:03,320 --> 01:24:06,280 Speaker 3: or is there a fundamental reason for this incredible volatility 1723 01:24:06,320 --> 01:24:07,200 Speaker 3: in the precious metals. 1724 01:24:09,000 --> 01:24:12,400 Speaker 24: It is crazy volatility for precious metals, and they are 1725 01:24:12,560 --> 01:24:16,160 Speaker 24: historically a pretty sleepy set class. So for context, silver 1726 01:24:16,360 --> 01:24:19,599 Speaker 24: is trading ten times more volatile than it normally does, 1727 01:24:19,680 --> 01:24:21,680 Speaker 24: so the price is winging around ten times or one 1728 01:24:21,680 --> 01:24:24,599 Speaker 24: thousand percent more than it usually does, so not normal, 1729 01:24:24,640 --> 01:24:26,839 Speaker 24: and that's actually more akin to sort of crazy speculai 1730 01:24:26,840 --> 01:24:31,040 Speaker 24: of assets like bitcoin. So there were fundamental drivers initially, 1731 01:24:31,080 --> 01:24:33,479 Speaker 24: as they're often are, so you and I talked about 1732 01:24:33,520 --> 01:24:36,760 Speaker 24: this in November last year. There are sort of three 1733 01:24:36,840 --> 01:24:39,280 Speaker 24: fundamental investment cases for gold, and to a lesser extent 1734 01:24:39,320 --> 01:24:42,040 Speaker 24: than the other precious metals. One they're a safe haven hedge, 1735 01:24:42,080 --> 01:24:44,240 Speaker 24: so they do well when stock markets crash, and gold 1736 01:24:44,320 --> 01:24:48,639 Speaker 24: really started to rally into and around that extreme volatility 1737 01:24:48,680 --> 01:24:50,639 Speaker 24: we saw in stock markets at April last year when 1738 01:24:50,640 --> 01:24:53,559 Speaker 24: we saw that sharp correction. The second thing is they 1739 01:24:53,600 --> 01:24:55,720 Speaker 24: are an inflation hedge. And the third thing is they 1740 01:24:56,280 --> 01:24:58,920 Speaker 24: are a hedge against the US generally and in particular 1741 01:24:59,000 --> 01:25:02,200 Speaker 24: a weaker US dollar. As investors move away from USS 1742 01:25:02,320 --> 01:25:04,599 Speaker 24: it's like bonds because they're worried about government debt level. 1743 01:25:04,720 --> 01:25:08,439 Speaker 24: So three fundamental reasons, but more recently it's really switched 1744 01:25:08,520 --> 01:25:12,599 Speaker 24: to kind of greedy fomo and speculative panic and then 1745 01:25:12,680 --> 01:25:16,040 Speaker 24: on the weekend the bubble was pricked by two things. 1746 01:25:16,160 --> 01:25:19,880 Speaker 24: So Kevin Walsh was nominated as the FED chair. He 1747 01:25:20,120 --> 01:25:22,760 Speaker 24: is viewed as a bit more hawkish, so he's more 1748 01:25:22,920 --> 01:25:25,960 Speaker 24: likely to lift interest rate strengths of the US dollar 1749 01:25:26,040 --> 01:25:29,120 Speaker 24: and buy implication precious metals that are priced and US 1750 01:25:29,160 --> 01:25:33,919 Speaker 24: dollars become more expensive and more. Simply, the CEME exchange 1751 01:25:33,920 --> 01:25:36,840 Speaker 24: that hosts the trading of these precious medals hyke the 1752 01:25:36,920 --> 01:25:41,200 Speaker 24: amount that speculators had to pay to put down as collateral. 1753 01:25:41,320 --> 01:25:43,240 Speaker 1: So silver fell. 1754 01:25:43,160 --> 01:25:46,519 Speaker 24: Forty and forty eight hours and gold fell twenty one percent. 1755 01:25:46,680 --> 01:25:51,000 Speaker 24: So fundamentals move to kind of fomo greed and then panic. 1756 01:25:51,560 --> 01:25:53,800 Speaker 3: So they're not the only metals though that have had 1757 01:25:53,880 --> 01:25:55,719 Speaker 3: a crazy ride. I mean platinum for example. 1758 01:25:55,760 --> 01:25:59,320 Speaker 24: What's going on here, Yeah, the four sort of official 1759 01:25:59,560 --> 01:26:03,880 Speaker 24: precious metals are gold, silver, platinum, and palladium, and the 1760 01:26:04,400 --> 01:26:07,439 Speaker 24: other three precious metals really trade is kind of like 1761 01:26:07,520 --> 01:26:11,519 Speaker 24: the slower moving porer cousins of gold until they din't 1762 01:26:11,640 --> 01:26:14,280 Speaker 24: until they really start moving late in the cycle, and 1763 01:26:14,360 --> 01:26:18,040 Speaker 24: they become the extremely erratic, volatile cousins of gold. So 1764 01:26:18,479 --> 01:26:21,840 Speaker 24: you look back over thirty years, gold usually starts to rally, 1765 01:26:22,880 --> 01:26:26,040 Speaker 24: and those other three, platinum and pladium do have those 1766 01:26:26,120 --> 01:26:30,080 Speaker 24: three investment cases to a lesser extent. But what's different 1767 01:26:30,600 --> 01:26:33,800 Speaker 24: to gold those other three is they actually have some 1768 01:26:33,960 --> 01:26:37,080 Speaker 24: industrial uses. So silver is used in solar panels and 1769 01:26:37,160 --> 01:26:41,000 Speaker 24: electric vehicles, platinum is used for converting dirty diesel fumes 1770 01:26:41,040 --> 01:26:45,680 Speaker 24: into less toxic fumes. And for platinum and silver in particular, 1771 01:26:46,600 --> 01:26:49,759 Speaker 24: there has been not enough supply around, not enough mining 1772 01:26:49,880 --> 01:26:53,320 Speaker 24: of this metal to supply into those industrial use cases. 1773 01:26:53,680 --> 01:26:56,400 Speaker 24: And then that was all supercharged by being the slower moving, 1774 01:26:56,439 --> 01:26:59,160 Speaker 24: poorer cousin of gold that had to catch up rally, 1775 01:26:59,240 --> 01:27:01,439 Speaker 24: so we sort of had the perfect storm for platinum 1776 01:27:01,439 --> 01:27:02,280 Speaker 24: and palladium as well. 1777 01:27:03,320 --> 01:27:04,960 Speaker 3: What do you think this all means for investors? 1778 01:27:05,000 --> 01:27:11,479 Speaker 24: Then, despite having those three primary investment cases, all four 1779 01:27:11,520 --> 01:27:15,720 Speaker 24: of those metals, it is extremely harder and possible to 1780 01:27:16,320 --> 01:27:20,680 Speaker 24: value precious metals and especially gold. There's no industrial use 1781 01:27:20,720 --> 01:27:24,639 Speaker 24: case whatsoever in normal terms. So if you think about 1782 01:27:24,640 --> 01:27:28,240 Speaker 24: a share, for example, they generate earnings and cash flow 1783 01:27:28,400 --> 01:27:31,080 Speaker 24: and dividends for the investor, and you can discount those 1784 01:27:31,160 --> 01:27:33,639 Speaker 24: cash flows back to today and say what a shares 1785 01:27:33,680 --> 01:27:36,599 Speaker 24: worth or what the intrinsic value is. We're just guessing 1786 01:27:36,640 --> 01:27:39,760 Speaker 24: what the intrinsic value is of these metals. So I 1787 01:27:39,840 --> 01:27:43,679 Speaker 24: guess the message to investors is there is a place 1788 01:27:43,840 --> 01:27:48,320 Speaker 24: for gold in particular any diversified portfolio, but always be 1789 01:27:48,479 --> 01:27:51,599 Speaker 24: careful when an asset that's impossible to value moves from 1790 01:27:51,640 --> 01:27:54,960 Speaker 24: a fundamentally driven rally to a speculative frenzy. 1791 01:27:55,479 --> 01:27:57,720 Speaker 3: Interesting has Sam has always really appreciated talking to you, mate, 1792 01:27:57,720 --> 01:28:01,160 Speaker 3: look after yourself, Sam Dickeye offic funds right now, nineteen 1793 01:28:01,160 --> 01:28:01,840 Speaker 3: away from seven. 1794 01:28:02,439 --> 01:28:04,200 Speaker 1: Here the duplicy Allen, This is. 1795 01:28:04,200 --> 01:28:06,760 Speaker 3: A curly one. This is a really curly one. Now 1796 01:28:07,479 --> 01:28:10,280 Speaker 3: this is I find this particularly curly because I went 1797 01:28:10,360 --> 01:28:14,439 Speaker 3: through the IVF journey and so this is a yeah, 1798 01:28:15,200 --> 01:28:17,040 Speaker 3: I can see how this would be tempting for people. 1799 01:28:17,160 --> 01:28:20,360 Speaker 3: So what's been revealed is that in the Australian media 1800 01:28:20,680 --> 01:28:23,679 Speaker 3: that there are some Aussie couples playing a US based 1801 01:28:23,760 --> 01:28:26,680 Speaker 3: company to find out which of the embryos are best right, 1802 01:28:27,040 --> 01:28:30,480 Speaker 3: so that they can choose the embryos that have higher intelligence, 1803 01:28:30,600 --> 01:28:32,800 Speaker 3: better height, specific eye color, that kind of thing. It's 1804 01:28:32,840 --> 01:28:35,760 Speaker 3: not actually allowed in Australia, and it is also not 1805 01:28:35,920 --> 01:28:39,160 Speaker 3: actually allowed in New Zealand, but you can do the 1806 01:28:39,240 --> 01:28:41,840 Speaker 3: IVF here and then you can send your embryos off 1807 01:28:41,880 --> 01:28:43,920 Speaker 3: to the US and a company over there can do 1808 01:28:44,000 --> 01:28:45,519 Speaker 3: it for you, and then they can send it back. 1809 01:28:45,560 --> 01:28:48,280 Speaker 3: And incidentally, actually, if you go through an IVF process 1810 01:28:48,680 --> 01:28:51,120 Speaker 3: in New Zealand, you may fire in fact find that 1811 01:28:51,240 --> 01:28:53,960 Speaker 3: it is just subtly offered to you as like, hey, 1812 01:28:54,000 --> 01:28:55,840 Speaker 3: by the way, you can if you want to, you can, 1813 01:28:56,000 --> 01:28:57,360 Speaker 3: you can do this. It's up to you if you 1814 01:28:57,400 --> 01:28:59,640 Speaker 3: want to do it, and not our rules suggested. You're 1815 01:28:59,640 --> 01:29:01,720 Speaker 3: not really supposed to do it. Anyway. What they do 1816 01:29:02,439 --> 01:29:06,120 Speaker 3: is these It costs about thirty thousand US dollars, so 1817 01:29:06,200 --> 01:29:07,720 Speaker 3: it's a hell of a lot of money, and they 1818 01:29:07,760 --> 01:29:10,519 Speaker 3: will screen twenty of your embryos for two thousand traits 1819 01:29:10,560 --> 01:29:16,200 Speaker 3: and conditions eye color, hair color, risk of acne, left handedness, 1820 01:29:16,280 --> 01:29:18,040 Speaker 3: I mean, why anybody wants to screen that out? But 1821 01:29:18,120 --> 01:29:23,800 Speaker 3: they do, baldness, heart disease, Alzheimer's, autism, anxiety, diabetes, all 1822 01:29:23,840 --> 01:29:26,000 Speaker 3: that kind of stuff. The problem with I mean, and 1823 01:29:26,240 --> 01:29:28,800 Speaker 3: so you can see how that would be tempting, because 1824 01:29:28,880 --> 01:29:32,320 Speaker 3: if you're a bit of a psycho and you want 1825 01:29:32,360 --> 01:29:35,600 Speaker 3: to have the perfect child, you will obviously get your 1826 01:29:35,640 --> 01:29:37,479 Speaker 3: embryos ranked for you, and then you can you can 1827 01:29:37,520 --> 01:29:39,120 Speaker 3: start off with the best one and you know, try 1828 01:29:39,320 --> 01:29:41,960 Speaker 3: and try and have an A grade child. The problem 1829 01:29:42,040 --> 01:29:44,400 Speaker 3: with it is quite apart from the moral issue here, 1830 01:29:44,439 --> 01:29:46,479 Speaker 3: which is that it's a little bit eugenicxy you know 1831 01:29:46,479 --> 01:29:47,840 Speaker 3: what I mean, just feels a little lonk. It makes 1832 01:29:47,840 --> 01:29:52,759 Speaker 3: you feel uncomfortable like basically selecting for, you know, instead 1833 01:29:52,800 --> 01:29:54,080 Speaker 3: of just taking a bit of a chance as to 1834 01:29:54,120 --> 01:29:57,400 Speaker 3: what comes out. That's a bit weird. But also trouble 1835 01:29:57,479 --> 01:30:02,040 Speaker 3: with it is first of all, DNA, the genes that 1836 01:30:02,160 --> 01:30:05,360 Speaker 3: you might be selecting for, may in fact have unintended consequence. 1837 01:30:05,400 --> 01:30:08,840 Speaker 3: So one gene usually affects multiple traits. So if you're 1838 01:30:08,840 --> 01:30:12,160 Speaker 3: selecting an embryo that's deemed to have more likely you know, 1839 01:30:12,360 --> 01:30:14,519 Speaker 3: be a bit smarter, rechieve a higher level of education, 1840 01:30:14,880 --> 01:30:18,799 Speaker 3: you may actually inadvertently increase the risk of bipolar disorder 1841 01:30:18,880 --> 01:30:21,880 Speaker 3: in your child by sixteen percent. So the risk is 1842 01:30:21,920 --> 01:30:24,320 Speaker 3: that you're going for something kind of a bit benign, 1843 01:30:24,880 --> 01:30:26,760 Speaker 3: like a kid who's a bit smarter, but then you 1844 01:30:26,880 --> 01:30:28,920 Speaker 3: end up with a kid with bipolar. So now you've 1845 01:30:28,920 --> 01:30:30,719 Speaker 3: got a problem on your hands. And and you potentially 1846 01:30:31,040 --> 01:30:34,280 Speaker 3: also though it might not be real DNA, And this 1847 01:30:34,720 --> 01:30:36,720 Speaker 3: to me this would be the thing that would put 1848 01:30:36,760 --> 01:30:39,920 Speaker 3: me off. Most likely, DNA isn't the only thing that 1849 01:30:40,080 --> 01:30:42,720 Speaker 3: governs the people that you become the person that you become, Right, 1850 01:30:43,560 --> 01:30:45,560 Speaker 3: you're going to be affected by your parents' diet and 1851 01:30:45,600 --> 01:30:48,240 Speaker 3: the diet that you have, your home life, the stress 1852 01:30:48,280 --> 01:30:50,280 Speaker 3: in your home life, the exposure to cigarette smoke and 1853 01:30:50,320 --> 01:30:52,320 Speaker 3: pollution and all that kind of stuff. So here your 1854 01:30:52,360 --> 01:30:55,160 Speaker 3: parents are fiddling with your genes. Actually all the other 1855 01:30:55,240 --> 01:30:57,640 Speaker 3: stuff is really to affect you. Having said all of that, 1856 01:30:58,520 --> 01:31:01,959 Speaker 3: already twelve babies have been born after they were analyzed 1857 01:31:01,960 --> 01:31:04,320 Speaker 3: as embryos by just one of these companies in the US. 1858 01:31:04,400 --> 01:31:07,559 Speaker 3: So it is a thing that is I suspect as 1859 01:31:07,640 --> 01:31:11,440 Speaker 3: we become more and more crazy and anxious and helicopter 1860 01:31:11,560 --> 01:31:14,439 Speaker 3: parenty and weird about our children. I think this is 1861 01:31:14,479 --> 01:31:17,000 Speaker 3: a thing that's going to catch on with wealthier families 1862 01:31:17,040 --> 01:31:18,120 Speaker 3: sixteen away from seven. 1863 01:31:19,640 --> 01:31:22,320 Speaker 1: Ever, it's to do with money. It matters to you. 1864 01:31:22,800 --> 01:31:26,840 Speaker 1: The business hour with Heather Duplicy Allen and Mas insurance 1865 01:31:26,920 --> 01:31:29,759 Speaker 1: and investments, your futures in good hands. 1866 01:31:30,360 --> 01:31:33,680 Speaker 3: US talks'd be Heather cri key with my left handedness, 1867 01:31:33,720 --> 01:31:36,200 Speaker 3: my acne and my anxiety. I absolutely would not have 1868 01:31:36,320 --> 01:31:39,200 Speaker 3: been born and the world would be poorer for that. Friend. 1869 01:31:39,640 --> 01:31:43,280 Speaker 3: Thirteen away from seven and Inder Brady are UK correspondence 1870 01:31:43,280 --> 01:31:43,519 Speaker 3: with us? 1871 01:31:43,560 --> 01:31:45,960 Speaker 1: Now Hello, Enda, Hey, heaven, how are you? 1872 01:31:46,040 --> 01:31:46,240 Speaker 2: Wow? 1873 01:31:46,400 --> 01:31:49,000 Speaker 3: Okay? So Keir Starmer? How much trouble is he in 1874 01:31:49,200 --> 01:31:52,240 Speaker 3: on this Peter Mandelsson business are huge? 1875 01:31:52,360 --> 01:31:55,200 Speaker 21: This could bring him down, This could bring his government down. 1876 01:31:55,720 --> 01:31:58,920 Speaker 21: He cannot afford to have another day like yesterday. He 1877 01:31:59,040 --> 01:32:01,640 Speaker 21: came across as real weak in Parliament. He's on the 1878 01:32:01,760 --> 01:32:05,160 Speaker 21: ropes his popularity in the public. There's never been a 1879 01:32:05,240 --> 01:32:08,280 Speaker 21: more unpopular British prime minister in recent living memory. And 1880 01:32:08,439 --> 01:32:10,640 Speaker 21: I mean it's a pretty low bar when you're up 1881 01:32:10,640 --> 01:32:14,600 Speaker 21: against Boris Johnson and Liz Truss and Rishie Sunak. He 1882 01:32:14,760 --> 01:32:17,439 Speaker 21: is really on the ropes. Here the significant event yesterday 1883 01:32:17,479 --> 01:32:21,240 Speaker 21: in Parliament Prime Minister's Questions he admitted that in the 1884 01:32:21,400 --> 01:32:25,519 Speaker 21: vetting for Peter Mandelson to become UK Ambassador to America 1885 01:32:25,600 --> 01:32:29,839 Speaker 21: last year, he was warned about Mandalson's friendship with Jeffrey 1886 01:32:29,880 --> 01:32:33,719 Speaker 21: Epstein and proceeded with the appointment anyway. Now, Starmer's version 1887 01:32:33,720 --> 01:32:36,800 Speaker 21: of events is that Mandleson basically is a snake who 1888 01:32:36,920 --> 01:32:41,200 Speaker 21: lied to his face repeatedly about that friendship. But what 1889 01:32:41,400 --> 01:32:44,360 Speaker 21: is becoming very very clear now is that Mandelson was 1890 01:32:44,680 --> 01:32:47,519 Speaker 21: in Epstein's inner circle, even had a nickname for him. 1891 01:32:47,560 --> 01:32:51,280 Speaker 21: Epstein used to call him Sneaky Pete and kir Starmer. 1892 01:32:51,400 --> 01:32:53,600 Speaker 21: Now that is really coming home to roost, that the 1893 01:32:53,640 --> 01:32:56,400 Speaker 21: British Prime Minister went ahead and appointed this man to 1894 01:32:56,520 --> 01:32:57,400 Speaker 21: such a big role. 1895 01:32:57,840 --> 01:33:02,240 Speaker 3: Okay, the problem for Staf obviously there's no proof. There's 1896 01:33:02,280 --> 01:33:07,160 Speaker 3: no proof of you know that. I mean, it's entirely plausible, 1897 01:33:07,240 --> 01:33:09,720 Speaker 3: isn't it That Peter Mandelson may well have lied to 1898 01:33:09,760 --> 01:33:12,479 Speaker 3: his face sufficiently for him to feel confident. But the 1899 01:33:12,600 --> 01:33:14,360 Speaker 3: trouble it seems to me is that it feels like 1900 01:33:14,479 --> 01:33:18,280 Speaker 3: Kyostama is constantly being pushed into taking more steps by 1901 01:33:18,320 --> 01:33:20,320 Speaker 3: the revelation instead of kind of getting ahead of it. 1902 01:33:21,640 --> 01:33:23,920 Speaker 21: Yes, very much so. And I think what we're likely 1903 01:33:24,000 --> 01:33:26,640 Speaker 21: to see now, I think internally, and I know this 1904 01:33:26,760 --> 01:33:29,000 Speaker 21: for a fact because someone rang me last night to 1905 01:33:29,080 --> 01:33:33,800 Speaker 21: tell me people inside Labor are on maneuvers they want 1906 01:33:33,880 --> 01:33:38,120 Speaker 21: Starmer out, and I think everyone will coalesce around Angela Rayner. Now, 1907 01:33:38,240 --> 01:33:42,080 Speaker 21: she had to leave her ministerial position previously over a 1908 01:33:42,160 --> 01:33:44,960 Speaker 21: property purchase that where the tax side of things wasn't 1909 01:33:45,000 --> 01:33:49,599 Speaker 21: exactly transparent. She's back with a vengeance. She spoke quite 1910 01:33:49,880 --> 01:33:53,400 Speaker 21: clearly and coherently in Parliament yesterday and I think you 1911 01:33:53,479 --> 01:33:56,760 Speaker 21: will see a move soon internally for someone I e. 1912 01:33:57,040 --> 01:34:00,200 Speaker 21: Horror to replace Starmer. And this is before we even 1913 01:34:00,240 --> 01:34:02,479 Speaker 21: get to the elections in May, which everyone thought would 1914 01:34:02,479 --> 01:34:03,160 Speaker 21: be his death knell. 1915 01:34:03,240 --> 01:34:05,920 Speaker 3: Anyway. Have they got the numbers though to roll him? 1916 01:34:07,000 --> 01:34:09,840 Speaker 21: Absolutely? Yes, yeah, I think she'll easily get two hundred 1917 01:34:09,840 --> 01:34:14,240 Speaker 21: plus MPs. The next forty eight hours is crucial. I 1918 01:34:14,280 --> 01:34:16,240 Speaker 21: would not want to be his chief of staff today. 1919 01:34:16,280 --> 01:34:20,160 Speaker 21: The Irish guy, Morgan MacSweeney. He's not liked by the 1920 01:34:20,280 --> 01:34:22,880 Speaker 21: left wing of the Labor Party anyway, and I think 1921 01:34:23,040 --> 01:34:25,600 Speaker 21: if heads roll, it will be deputy heads first. And 1922 01:34:25,680 --> 01:34:28,280 Speaker 21: I think MacSweeney will go if it comes to it. 1923 01:34:28,640 --> 01:34:31,120 Speaker 21: But if he goes that week, he's Starmer's right hand 1924 01:34:31,160 --> 01:34:33,600 Speaker 21: man and against Starmer appointed him. They've been in this 1925 01:34:33,760 --> 01:34:37,960 Speaker 21: together from the outset. But Mandelson, I think he will 1926 01:34:38,000 --> 01:34:41,639 Speaker 21: be sitting back worrying about his own goose being cooked 1927 01:34:41,680 --> 01:34:43,599 Speaker 21: because he has battles of his oncoming. 1928 01:34:44,000 --> 01:34:47,000 Speaker 3: Okay, now, the latest business with Andrew is that he 1929 01:34:47,120 --> 01:34:49,479 Speaker 3: and Epstein had an exotic dancer, and they asked for 1930 01:34:49,560 --> 01:34:52,720 Speaker 3: sexual favors and stuff like that. Is I mean, is 1931 01:34:52,840 --> 01:34:56,000 Speaker 3: this starting to cross the line from YEA, sure we 1932 01:34:56,080 --> 01:34:58,560 Speaker 3: should know about this to just a little bit of 1933 01:34:58,680 --> 01:35:02,120 Speaker 3: kind of like it's not legal, it's just gross And 1934 01:35:02,600 --> 01:35:04,040 Speaker 3: how much of us do we actually need to know? 1935 01:35:04,160 --> 01:35:04,559 Speaker 3: Do you think? 1936 01:35:05,439 --> 01:35:07,680 Speaker 21: It's a very good point. But I think as more 1937 01:35:07,760 --> 01:35:10,400 Speaker 21: comes out, whether we like it or not, there's a 1938 01:35:10,439 --> 01:35:13,800 Speaker 21: lot more coming. I mean, I had Andrew Lownie, the 1939 01:35:13,920 --> 01:35:18,479 Speaker 21: royal biographer who wrote that book about Andrew Windsor called entitled. 1940 01:35:18,640 --> 01:35:21,679 Speaker 21: He was on my TV show at Christmas and I said, 1941 01:35:21,960 --> 01:35:23,360 Speaker 21: how much do you think we know? And he said, 1942 01:35:23,560 --> 01:35:25,800 Speaker 21: there's a lot more coming. And I don't think we've 1943 01:35:25,840 --> 01:35:28,720 Speaker 21: even scratched the surface. This week he's writing a second book, 1944 01:35:28,760 --> 01:35:30,720 Speaker 21: by the way, that'll tell you how much more there 1945 01:35:30,800 --> 01:35:34,840 Speaker 21: is coming. And yes it's grubby, it's Andrew. And I 1946 01:35:34,920 --> 01:35:37,720 Speaker 21: think the one person for me that I'm most disappointed 1947 01:35:37,760 --> 01:35:40,280 Speaker 21: out of anyone is the late Queen, his mother, because 1948 01:35:40,520 --> 01:35:45,240 Speaker 21: she protected him. The Americans wanted the FBI wanted Andrew 1949 01:35:45,280 --> 01:35:49,439 Speaker 21: Windsor extradise it. They wanted him on American soil. And 1950 01:35:49,600 --> 01:35:52,920 Speaker 21: here is why he won't go to Congress in person 1951 01:35:53,120 --> 01:35:56,560 Speaker 21: and give evidence because he fears being arrested. That is 1952 01:35:56,760 --> 01:36:01,320 Speaker 21: Andrew Windsor's for what. Well, let's find there's three million 1953 01:36:01,400 --> 01:36:03,519 Speaker 21: documents and I don't think we've seen ten percent of them. 1954 01:36:03,600 --> 01:36:06,840 Speaker 3: Yessh Okay, Well, Enda, theres so much talk to keep 1955 01:36:06,840 --> 01:36:09,640 Speaker 3: an eye out for.

I know, right like, your 1962 01:36:25,640 --> 01:36:28,240 Speaker 3: kids are going to be wonderful anyway for the most part, 1963 01:36:28,320 --> 01:36:30,839 Speaker 3: because you're wonderful, So you don't need to start screening 1964 01:36:30,880 --> 01:36:34,200 Speaker 3: for weird things like blue eyes and right handedness. Who 1965 01:36:34,280 --> 01:36:36,360 Speaker 3: needs that anyway? Eight away from seven. 1966 01:36:37,720 --> 01:36:40,280 Speaker 1: It's the Heather Too for See allan Drive full show 1967 01:36:40,400 --> 01:36:43,880 Speaker 1: podcast on iHeartRadio powered by newstalg ZEBBI. 1968 01:36:47,000 --> 01:36:48,680 Speaker 3: Five away from seven, Listen, I've got to draw your 1969 01:36:48,680 --> 01:36:50,880 Speaker 3: attention to something. There's a cute little report about New 1970 01:36:50,960 --> 01:36:53,960 Speaker 3: Zealand and the UK Guardian today, but not just New Zealand, 1971 01:36:53,960 --> 01:36:58,040 Speaker 3: but specifically about tramps in New Zealand who are going 1972 01:36:58,120 --> 01:37:00,400 Speaker 3: out to back country huts just to clear them up 1973 01:37:00,439 --> 01:37:02,920 Speaker 3: and tidy them for other tramps. Like literally, that's the 1974 01:37:03,000 --> 01:37:05,080 Speaker 3: only reason they Basically what they do is they fill 1975 01:37:05,120 --> 01:37:07,360 Speaker 3: their backpacks with cleaning supplies and then they head out there. 1976 01:37:07,560 --> 01:37:10,200 Speaker 3: It's about three and then they come home. Three hundred 1977 01:37:10,240 --> 01:37:12,920 Speaker 3: trampers do it. It's part of a Lover Huts cleaning 1978 01:37:13,000 --> 01:37:15,800 Speaker 3: campaign which is run by the Federated Mountain Club. As 1979 01:37:15,840 --> 01:37:18,200 Speaker 3: they go into the huts and they they'll wipe down 1980 01:37:18,240 --> 01:37:20,519 Speaker 3: the mattresses and they'll get the rugs out and they'll 1981 01:37:20,520 --> 01:37:22,880 Speaker 3: beat them with the old broom and air the mount 1982 01:37:22,920 --> 01:37:25,559 Speaker 3: and stuff, wipe down the windows, pull out the weeds, 1983 01:37:25,640 --> 01:37:27,880 Speaker 3: do all the stuff. And what I loved about it 1984 01:37:28,520 --> 01:37:30,240 Speaker 3: was the parents who were getting the kids to do it. 1985 01:37:30,320 --> 01:37:32,280 Speaker 3: So there's one mum who took her boys out there. 1986 01:37:32,680 --> 01:37:34,639 Speaker 3: Sounded like it was a four. They said they tramped 1987 01:37:34,680 --> 01:37:36,519 Speaker 3: for four hours. I'm guessing it was four hours in 1988 01:37:36,600 --> 01:37:39,639 Speaker 3: one direction rather than two hours and then two hours, 1989 01:37:39,720 --> 01:37:41,679 Speaker 3: so they must have stayed the night or something boys 1990 01:37:41,720 --> 01:37:44,559 Speaker 3: for five and seven. How impressive is that?
