1 00:00:00,760 --> 00:00:04,920 Speaker 1: You're trusted Home the News for Entertainment's opinion and Mike 2 00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:08,200 Speaker 1: the Mike Hosking Breakfast with the range Rover, the la 3 00:00:08,600 --> 00:00:11,360 Speaker 1: designed to intrigue and use Togshead Blen. 4 00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:14,160 Speaker 2: You welcome today from action to sort the power supply crisis, 5 00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:16,640 Speaker 2: the appeals caught back to the drivers over Uber. We've 6 00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:19,280 Speaker 2: got details on the next bit of the COVID Royal Commission, 7 00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:22,040 Speaker 2: the pigems and of course as is Ellison mo Yang 8 00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:25,320 Speaker 2: after eight Gatherinfield and France. Ander Brady does the Mighty 9 00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:29,320 Speaker 2: UK forus Hosky. Here's the morning, welcome to it. Here 10 00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:32,680 Speaker 2: is the futility of what the government did over fast tracking. 11 00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:37,000 Speaker 2: The Environmental Defense Society chair still thinks projects that harm 12 00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:39,479 Speaker 2: the environment will get the go ahead. His name is 13 00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:42,480 Speaker 2: Gary Taylor. Gary Taylor has been around forever. He loves 14 00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:46,440 Speaker 2: the environment. He has defended campaigned against the destruction before 15 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:48,720 Speaker 2: Chloe Swarbrick was even born. There is nothing you can 16 00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:50,760 Speaker 2: do that involves cutting a tree, slashing a bush, or 17 00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:53,280 Speaker 2: squashing a snail that will appease Gary Taylor. If it 18 00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:55,600 Speaker 2: comes to infrastructure and in that is the problem with 19 00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:58,000 Speaker 2: the backdown. This government either wants to get on with us, 20 00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:01,280 Speaker 2: or it doesn't. Ideas will not get them re elected. 21 00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:03,240 Speaker 2: My model has always been very simple. You get your 22 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:05,800 Speaker 2: first term to blame the last lot, implement your ideas 23 00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:07,600 Speaker 2: as you go along. So you end your first term 24 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:10,840 Speaker 2: arguing changes underway and the fruits, if not already to 25 00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:14,919 Speaker 2: be seen, are not far off. Talking about rima reform 26 00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:17,400 Speaker 2: gets you nowhere. A new road does, a new bridge 27 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:19,440 Speaker 2: does the cutting of a ribbon? And a new hospital 28 00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:22,880 Speaker 2: most definitely does. My suspicion, as we said yesterday, is 29 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,000 Speaker 2: the change doesn't actually make a lot of difference. Firstly, 30 00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:27,800 Speaker 2: you control the panel of experts, so they don't surprise you. 31 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,639 Speaker 2: They recommend a project, it goes ahead, and as minister 32 00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:32,680 Speaker 2: you have the advantage now of being able to blame 33 00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:34,880 Speaker 2: them if it all goes wrong. But in that mad 34 00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:39,440 Speaker 2: mix of politics versus actually doing stuff, the politics inevitably 35 00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:42,240 Speaker 2: plays a part. It's your image, It's the perception. Are 36 00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:45,840 Speaker 2: you a government of action? Do you get results? Or 37 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 2: how much of what you are about is merely a 38 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,400 Speaker 2: series of announcements. What you can't fault this lot on 39 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:54,520 Speaker 2: is one intent and two announcing stuff. Now this is 40 00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:57,040 Speaker 2: still fine. Announcing stuff is still fine, given they only 41 00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:58,880 Speaker 2: arrived at the start of this year, but as we 42 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 2: enter next year, results will need to be seen. By 43 00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:04,559 Speaker 2: election year, we will need runs on the board because 44 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:08,280 Speaker 2: results count. The worst mistake they can make, the chickening 45 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:11,800 Speaker 2: out of second guessing, of focus grouping themselves out of office, 46 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 2: but backing down, changing their mind, or saying one thing 47 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:17,560 Speaker 2: and doing another, shows in decisiveness and weakness. My message 48 00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 2: is very, very simple. Don't die wondering what. 49 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:25,280 Speaker 1: News of the world in ninety seconds on. 50 00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:27,560 Speaker 2: The Two Wars, firstly, at least where the UN have 51 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:28,679 Speaker 2: suspended operations. 52 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 3: They said with this new evacuation order from dary al Bala, 53 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:37,639 Speaker 3: that meant that UN staff that were operating in Daryl Bala, 54 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:41,120 Speaker 3: essentially the operation center, were forced to flee. 55 00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 2: In the Ukraine, the Ukrainian resistance continues to be effective. 56 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 4: Might say, we get information about Russia's occupying forces. We 57 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 4: also try to cut the enemy's communications. We block their 58 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:54,680 Speaker 4: logistics so that units on the front line are hungry 59 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 4: or have limited ammunition. We try to kill Russian military 60 00:02:58,280 --> 00:02:59,679 Speaker 4: personnel at all costs. 61 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 2: Cider Scrap's broken up between Harris and Trump over the 62 00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 2: rules of the debate and whether they will infect be debate. 63 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:07,360 Speaker 5: Why do did you do something like I'm doing right now? 64 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:12,079 Speaker 5: She can't talk. We can't have another dummy as a president. Okay. 65 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:12,800 Speaker 6: The truth is. 66 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:14,640 Speaker 5: They're trying to get out of it because she doesn't 67 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,560 Speaker 5: want a debate. She's not a good debater, she's not 68 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 5: a smart person. She doesn't want a debate. 69 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:22,360 Speaker 2: They're in London, another fire and a tall apartment building, 70 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:23,400 Speaker 2: this one and Daggingham. 71 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 4: Clearly it's going to require a very complex investigation, not 72 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 4: only to get to its calls, but to get to 73 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:31,559 Speaker 4: an understanding of the fire spread. 74 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:34,680 Speaker 2: Which brings back memories of Grinfell and listens learned or not. 75 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 7: It's likely to happen when you've got over three thousand 76 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 7: buildings left to remediate and only a limited number of 77 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 7: credible contractors that can actually do the work. 78 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 2: And as you heard in the news fream Goren Erickson 79 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 2: has died aged seventy six, diagnosed with terminal cancer. Of course, 80 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 2: early last year, many stories, many wins, and of course 81 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:52,680 Speaker 2: the fake chek scandal that saw them sect as England 82 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:53,680 Speaker 2: manager back in O six. 83 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 6: I would have been in secked anyhow. 84 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 8: After the World Cup two thousand and six because that 85 00:03:57,960 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 8: was not good enough. 86 00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 6: Quart I find it understand that. 87 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 9: But. 88 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:07,120 Speaker 10: I they never accept to understood that the news of 89 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 10: the world is so important. 90 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 2: Finally, cost of fish and chips is on the rise 91 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 2: in the UK is from the Office for National Statistics. 92 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 2: Single portion of the fish and chips. Listen to this, 93 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:18,599 Speaker 2: single portion of the fish and chips is was in 94 00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 2: fifty two percent. You're now paying a little bit under 95 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 2: ten pounds twenty bucks. The kebab's gone up forty four percent, 96 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 2: chicken and chips has gone up forty two percent, and 97 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:31,719 Speaker 2: the old Indian takeaway is up twenty nine. That, my friends, 98 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:33,480 Speaker 2: is the cost of living crisis and when used. 99 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 6: The world in nineties. 100 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 2: And then the Canadians come to play. They copied the Americans. 101 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 2: Mind you. The Americans got to the Canadians and said, 102 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:41,560 Speaker 2: by the way, have you thought about putting a really 103 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:45,800 Speaker 2: really large teriff on Chinese evs? And justin went, hm, actually, 104 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 2: that's not a bad idea. So they announced over night 105 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 2: a one hundred percent tariffs on the imports of Chinese 106 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 2: made electric vehicles, So this thing's hotting up. They're also 107 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:55,560 Speaker 2: going to impose a twenty five percent tariff on Chinese 108 00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:58,359 Speaker 2: steel and Aluminium. Twelve minutes past six. 109 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:05,239 Speaker 1: The Mic Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered 110 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:06,279 Speaker 1: by News Talk Zippy. 111 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:10,160 Speaker 2: Great debate, Ober Jerome Powell, the Fed Weather. He's left 112 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:12,560 Speaker 2: it too late with the Americas in recession, all the 113 00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 2: high drama. What we had this morning to give you 114 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 2: an indication is an uptick in the sausage demand later 115 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,839 Speaker 2: sign of consumers tightening their belts. Modest growth in the 116 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 2: dinner sausage category. This is from the Dallas Federal Reserve 117 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:28,839 Speaker 2: Texas Manufacturing Outlook Survey. No less category tends to grow 118 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 2: when the economy we can spying sausages. Things aren't good. 119 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 2: Fifteen past six, laughing John, I Will Pandreck. 120 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:38,719 Speaker 6: Kellah, good morning, very good morning, Mike. 121 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 2: Those Deal and Tube are given. The construction sector not 122 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 2: as good as it could have been. 123 00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:46,680 Speaker 7: No, no, look, we're still working our way through the 124 00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 7: local earning season and it is shining a light as 125 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 7: expected on the sort of underlying macro environment, particularly these 126 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:57,159 Speaker 7: companies that are so more domestically focused. And yeah, a 127 00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:00,280 Speaker 7: couple of examples, Yes they steal in tube while one 128 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:01,800 Speaker 7: of them still in tube listed on the ends that 129 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:07,160 Speaker 7: X supplies a range of metal products to the construction industry, 130 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 7: so operating in a pretty tough environment given the week 131 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 7: nature the construction said to Yesterday, they announced their full 132 00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 7: year result. Look on a positive note, the result was 133 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:19,839 Speaker 7: consistent with guidance at an underlying earnings level. At the 134 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:23,600 Speaker 7: top line, earnings were lower. This is due to abnormals 135 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:27,800 Speaker 7: and that included restructuring costs. Now here's the rub Sales 136 00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 7: volumes fell twenty one percent on the prior year. Revenues 137 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:34,799 Speaker 7: fell nineteen percent, So that's a chunky fall in sort. 138 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 6: Of normalized earning. 139 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 7: So it looks like they are managing their costs fairly efficiently. 140 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:39,160 Speaker 6: In the background. 141 00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 7: Now, Mike, there's a term we're hearing a lot of 142 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 7: this earning season. It's called cost out, which is very 143 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:50,480 Speaker 7: much self explanatory. Basically, businesses looking at removing costs from there, 144 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 7: you know, from their operations, and. 145 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:53,880 Speaker 6: That is going to continue. 146 00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 7: So even though we've got this sort of interest rate 147 00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 7: interest rate falls in front of us, this cost out 148 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:02,159 Speaker 7: is not going to go away. This very much includes 149 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:05,359 Speaker 7: staff restructuring. You had just under four million dollars of 150 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:07,760 Speaker 7: cost out at Steel and Tube. They do have the 151 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:10,080 Speaker 7: advantage of having no debt, they've actually got nine million 152 00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 7: dollars of cash in their balance sheet. They said they 153 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 7: expect the challenging operating environment to continue the short term, 154 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 7: but conditions should improve in the twenty twenty five calendar years, 155 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 7: so the old survived till twenty five theme. 156 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 6: They did note the sixty. 157 00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:27,560 Speaker 7: Five billion dollars allocated to infrastructure work by the government 158 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 7: in the budget over the next five years, sort of 159 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:32,400 Speaker 7: echoing comments that we heard from Fletcher Building as well. 160 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 7: They talked about, you know, there's a good infrastructure pipeline 161 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 7: out there that's just not the work right now. So 162 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 7: they're forecasting that will assist infrastructure activity and obviously their 163 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:44,480 Speaker 7: involvement to that. They're also a bit bullish on health, 164 00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 7: water and climate resilience work. Yesterday the share price was unchanged, 165 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,680 Speaker 7: but the economic cycle had wound for them currently. 166 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 2: Okay, what about some s it Yeah, retirement village sector. 167 00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:58,120 Speaker 7: Been tough going in that sector, Mike, you' see mixed 168 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 7: fortunes for some of Somerset competitors. You look at Rhyme 169 00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 7: and healthcare, which is you know, sort of share price 170 00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 7: has been has battled. Slowing residential property sector as ahead 171 00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 7: wind for these guys potential residents, so you know, you 172 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 7: got to sell your existing homes before you go and 173 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:17,760 Speaker 7: buy into the retirement home. Look, Somerset has performed really 174 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 7: creditably in this environment. That's reflected in the share price 175 00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 7: first half. Underlying that profit up three percent year on years, 176 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:27,680 Speaker 7: so that's good. Also consistent with previous guidance, which was 177 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 7: a good outcome. Cost control the theme here as well, 178 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,600 Speaker 7: keeping sales volumes up. If you look at their combined 179 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 7: new sales and resales of occupational rights agreements, they had 180 00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:39,080 Speaker 7: that five hundred and eighty eight of those in the 181 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 7: first half. Now, Mike, if listeners now think we continue 182 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 7: to sort of exaggerate to sensationalize the tone of the 183 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 7: current operating environment, the chief executive here called the current 184 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:53,320 Speaker 7: environment the worst trading conditions he has seen in his 185 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 7: tenure at the company. 186 00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:56,480 Speaker 6: So that's over the last seven years. 187 00:08:56,640 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 7: So cost out also here drop their staff so fifty 188 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:03,560 Speaker 7: few are full time equivalent workers and we're seeing that 189 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:06,080 Speaker 7: across a range of these results as well. Still looking 190 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:09,200 Speaker 7: to grow though they've quite a new site in New Zealand. 191 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 7: They do operate in Australia as well at Mission Hills, 192 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 7: in Napier, so three hundred units. Their combined investment will 193 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:17,560 Speaker 7: be in excess of two hundred million dollars.

Now? Uber, 305 00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:34,640 Speaker 2: I'm not surprised what happened in the Court of Appeal yesterday. 306 00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:36,880 Speaker 2: It seems to be happening in a lot of courts 307 00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 2: all around the world. But what I don't understand about 308 00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 2: it is how is it you enter into an arrangement 309 00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:46,880 Speaker 2: with somebody willingly, and then somebody else who's also into 310 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:49,880 Speaker 2: the arrangement willingly decides they don't like that arrangement anymore, 311 00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 2: so they'll hire a lawyer and go to court. In 312 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:53,760 Speaker 2: the court, we'll look at the arrangement that everyone walked 313 00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:57,040 Speaker 2: into willingly and up end it. But that seems to 314 00:14:57,080 --> 00:14:59,080 Speaker 2: be what's going on so more shortly. 315 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:04,440 Speaker 1: Through the newsmakers and the personalities the big names talk to, 316 00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:09,520 Speaker 1: like Hosking, Breakfast with Bailey's, real Estate, your local experts 317 00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 1: across residential, commercial and rural news talks, he'd be. 318 00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:14,760 Speaker 2: Just quickly back to the debate that may or may 319 00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:17,520 Speaker 2: not happen. You remember a week or so back, possibly 320 00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 2: slightly longer. Trump said there were three debates. There were 321 00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:22,240 Speaker 2: not three debates. There was one debate. And even that 322 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:24,520 Speaker 2: seems to be on. Some can teach it anyway. The 323 00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:28,000 Speaker 2: arguments round hot Mike on or off. Trump was asked 324 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:29,000 Speaker 2: about this earlier on. 325 00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:30,760 Speaker 6: We agreed to the same rules. 326 00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 12: I don't know. 327 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:32,120 Speaker 3: It doesn't matter to me. 328 00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 2: I'd rather have it probably on. 329 00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:36,840 Speaker 5: But the agreement was that it would be the same. 330 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:38,480 Speaker 12: As it was last time. 331 00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:42,200 Speaker 5: In that case it was muted. I didn't like it 332 00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:44,880 Speaker 5: the last time, but it worked out fine. We asked 333 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 5: Biden how it worked out. It was fine, and I 334 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:50,080 Speaker 5: think it should be the same. We agreed to the 335 00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 5: same rules. 336 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:54,320 Speaker 2: So we'll see where this goes. By the way, just 337 00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 2: in case you were wondering, France does not have a government. 338 00:15:57,200 --> 00:15:59,520 Speaker 2: I just don't know how they tackles. But Catherine Field's 339 00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:01,600 Speaker 2: and chargeable, so we'll talk to her in Paris very 340 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 2: shortly meantime, twenty ten minutes away from seven back home 341 00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:07,600 Speaker 2: uber terms of employment case that rolls through the legal 342 00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:10,040 Speaker 2: system for drivers. Of course, winning the right to be 343 00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:12,480 Speaker 2: seen as employees. With a Court of Appeal upholding an 344 00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 2: employment court case, Uber will most likely appeal this to 345 00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:18,160 Speaker 2: the Supreme Court. The employment expert, Max White here is 346 00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 2: back with us on all of this. Max, morning to you. 347 00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:22,600 Speaker 9: Good morning, Mike. Isn't this terrifying? 348 00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:25,160 Speaker 2: Well, there is terrifying, and can you explain it to 349 00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 2: me because I don't understand it, despite the fact it 350 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:29,000 Speaker 2: seems to be going this way in most courts around 351 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 2: the world. How do you enter into an agreement willingly 352 00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:35,080 Speaker 2: and then have a third party, ie court, say you 353 00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:37,880 Speaker 2: can't it's not right. I don't understand how it works. 354 00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:42,080 Speaker 9: Well, okay, so what the courts are saying is the 355 00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:46,240 Speaker 9: way to enter into employment relationship is through this gateway, 356 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:49,120 Speaker 9: which is the gateways evenly, you know, in terms of 357 00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:52,600 Speaker 9: measuring up whether you actually qualify to be an employee 358 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:55,880 Speaker 9: in Section six of the Employment Relations Act defines what 359 00:16:55,960 --> 00:17:01,000 Speaker 9: an employee is. Now, the application of Section six is 360 00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:05,240 Speaker 9: quite subjective, and I would say they've designed some rules 361 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:08,600 Speaker 9: around it to some degree. But for I think even 362 00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:11,280 Speaker 9: the Court of Appeal, which is said the judge looked 363 00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:14,800 Speaker 9: at it wrong. The Employment court judge looked at it wrong, 364 00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:17,720 Speaker 9: but we agree with their outcome. It really is a 365 00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:21,400 Speaker 9: very loud signal that it's really much a subjective view 366 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:24,399 Speaker 9: of it, and I think they're really flowing on for 367 00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:28,040 Speaker 9: what society's desire is. We've just had a government in 368 00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:33,080 Speaker 9: place which is union orientated and really for the benefit 369 00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 9: of workers, as most employers know now because of the 370 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:40,360 Speaker 9: costs have gone up immensely. But certainly the big thing 371 00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:44,480 Speaker 9: here in New Zealand is ninety three percent of all 372 00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 9: ninety seven percent of all businesses in New Zealand or 373 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:51,879 Speaker 9: enterprises in New Zealand are small businesses and they are 374 00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 9: actually operating very similar to Uber. Now you've imagined this decision, 375 00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:59,199 Speaker 9: if it really was carried through, it would really have 376 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 9: a huge impact on New Zealand's economy, on the people work. 377 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:05,720 Speaker 9: I would say a lot of businesses will leave down 378 00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:08,600 Speaker 9: something to be surprised. Uber is just one of the 379 00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 9: unions of top nine hundred employees looking for back pay. 380 00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:13,919 Speaker 9: If this decision came out. 381 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:16,240 Speaker 2: And the flow and affixes one thing, So I was 382 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:18,400 Speaker 2: going to ask about that if you're quoting section six 383 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:21,240 Speaker 2: section six, and then it potentially applies to everybody obviously, 384 00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 2: so is this wider than Uber. So in other words, 385 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 2: it has a chilling effect around a number of other industries. 386 00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 2: It's not unique to you Uber. 387 00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:31,399 Speaker 9: Oh, it's definitely going to affect other industries. While the 388 00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:34,040 Speaker 9: judge has been saying, oh, this only applies to four 389 00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:37,280 Speaker 9: individuals with an uber or, the reality is that it 390 00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:39,680 Speaker 9: will apply to everybody. Then. That's why we got nine 391 00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:43,320 Speaker 9: hundred employees having a go at it already, and they've 392 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:46,879 Speaker 9: got applications in the employment authority. So it's going to 393 00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:51,520 Speaker 9: carry on right To imagine a construction company that employs contractors, 394 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:56,920 Speaker 9: the way this decision has been put through clearly will 395 00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:00,440 Speaker 9: apply to those contractors and they could end up being employees. 396 00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:03,440 Speaker 9: Can I read just a small couple of sentences from 397 00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:07,680 Speaker 9: the decision. We consider it to be horribly clear that 398 00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:10,800 Speaker 9: the drivers are not in business of their own account 399 00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:14,320 Speaker 9: making the types of decisions that an independent business operator 400 00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:18,320 Speaker 9: would normally make. Now I would say ninety nine percent 401 00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:22,560 Speaker 9: or ninety percent of New Zealand contractors could be judged 402 00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:26,159 Speaker 9: the same. They're not in business, they're all employees. That's frightening, Mike. 403 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:28,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, but that doesn't make any sense to me because 404 00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:33,200 Speaker 2: if I, if I decide to do something that's my choice, 405 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 2: isn't it Well not a New Zealand law. 406 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:41,879 Speaker 9: Unfortunately, it's because we're quite a social state. The begunions 407 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:44,440 Speaker 9: have a very definite effect on this. And certainly they 408 00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:48,000 Speaker 9: can walk into a workplace and say to the two parties, 409 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:52,119 Speaker 9: the employee or the worker and the principle of organization, 410 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:54,160 Speaker 9: you guys, you've got it wrong. I'm going to determine 411 00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:56,360 Speaker 9: that all by going to the court and getting back up. 412 00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:59,080 Speaker 2: So worry well, let's they go to the Supreme Court 413 00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:00,720 Speaker 2: and of course of the means I want. The Supreme 414 00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:02,840 Speaker 2: Court says, of course makes white Hea appreciate your expertise 415 00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:06,000 Speaker 2: as always employment expert with us this morning, eighteen minutes 416 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,200 Speaker 2: away from seven. I will come back to it. But 417 00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:10,240 Speaker 2: they say, the critical point this is the court, the judges. 418 00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:12,320 Speaker 2: The critical point is we think that while a driver 419 00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:14,919 Speaker 2: is logged into the driver app that the driver has 420 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:17,880 Speaker 2: no opportunity to establish any business goodwill of their own. 421 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:21,280 Speaker 2: That I literally don't understand. Which does bring us to 422 00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:23,720 Speaker 2: Brook van Velden, who's here on the COVID thing after 423 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:26,639 Speaker 2: seven o'clock, which he's also in charge of reforming labor 424 00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:29,200 Speaker 2: law in this country. The suspicion is that they will 425 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 2: reform it to the point fingers crossed that this sort 426 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:35,879 Speaker 2: of nonsense no longer happens, because what you've got here 427 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:37,760 Speaker 2: is an interventionist court, of course. But more on that 428 00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:38,520 Speaker 2: later eighteen to. 429 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:43,679 Speaker 1: Two The Mic Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio 430 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:45,320 Speaker 1: powered by News Talks EPI. 431 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:48,440 Speaker 2: I'm not surprisingly you're agreeing with my Mike. Flexibility and 432 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:50,800 Speaker 2: supplementary income is what makes Uber so attractive to most 433 00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:52,680 Speaker 2: of its drivers. In the Court of appeal decision could 434 00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:54,880 Speaker 2: ruin an entire industry. I tend to agree this will 435 00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:56,840 Speaker 2: count for real estate agents as well. Yeah, the chilling 436 00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:59,560 Speaker 2: effective is potentially massive, Hence Brook van Velden's looking to 437 00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:02,840 Speaker 2: reform the whole thing. Micah. Uber is the direction for employment, 438 00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:05,960 Speaker 2: the nearly every bill in New Zealand now classified as employees. Yeah, 439 00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:07,600 Speaker 2: I mean how far does it go. It's all open 440 00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:08,760 Speaker 2: to interpretation, isn't it. 441 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 1: Six forty five International Correspondence with Ends and Eye Insurance. 442 00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:16,200 Speaker 1: Peace of Mind for New Zealand Business Right Plant. 443 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:17,399 Speaker 2: Captain Field, Very good morning to you. 444 00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:19,000 Speaker 10: Good morning mate. 445 00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:21,640 Speaker 2: Let me let me just getter at you a couple 446 00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:25,800 Speaker 2: of quick questions. Reno government, there's a caretaker government in place. 447 00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 2: Are people happy with the caretaker government? Are the ongoing 448 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:31,680 Speaker 2: and urgent talks to try and get a new government, 449 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:35,280 Speaker 2: and of those ongoing and urgent talks, are people genuinely 450 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:37,520 Speaker 2: enthused to form a new government or are we just 451 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:38,800 Speaker 2: happy with the status quo? 452 00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:42,440 Speaker 8: Oh gosh, sent a lot of questions off the bat. 453 00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:45,080 Speaker 8: There're like, oh, well, if you'd ask me that an 454 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:47,159 Speaker 8: hour ago, I would have said, yeah, people are kind 455 00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:49,040 Speaker 8: of going along with it. But just in the last 456 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 8: hour we've had an announcement from French President Manuel Macron 457 00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:56,240 Speaker 8: that there's talks that he's been holding on Monday and 458 00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:59,760 Speaker 8: last Friday with all the representatives of the political parties 459 00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:03,320 Speaker 8: and the National Assembly have actually come to nothing, that 460 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:07,600 Speaker 8: this paralysis is continuing. These two days of talks about 461 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:10,520 Speaker 8: who will back who and who will be acceptable and 462 00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:14,200 Speaker 8: who will be tolerated has come to absolutely nothing. So 463 00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:17,520 Speaker 8: we're back to square one. He has said there's no 464 00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:21,160 Speaker 8: clear majority for someone from the far left or even 465 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 8: the respectable left because they are a minority. There's nowhere 466 00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:29,719 Speaker 8: of going forward there, So yeah, we have got nowhere. 467 00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:33,640 Speaker 8: The current government is kind of like but everyone's still 468 00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:36,440 Speaker 8: in this post Olympic buzz. It might people are still 469 00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:39,720 Speaker 8: very happy, some are still here. No one's really woken 470 00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:42,520 Speaker 8: up to the fact that this country does need to 471 00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:45,880 Speaker 8: have a government, and that a caretaking government is quite 472 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:49,840 Speaker 8: restrained in the constitution. It can't, for example, do any 473 00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:53,840 Speaker 8: budget negotiations, can't change any laws. It really can just 474 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:57,920 Speaker 8: be a caretaker. So we're all expecting the President to 475 00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:00,240 Speaker 8: come up with something, you know, within the last to 476 00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:02,040 Speaker 8: say he decided on a new prime minister. 477 00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:02,959 Speaker 15: But he hasn't. 478 00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:06,320 Speaker 8: He's now going to have another day of talks with 479 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:11,120 Speaker 8: other parties from the center, center right and a few 480 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:14,880 Speaker 8: of the hopefully center left. He says he will talk 481 00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:17,320 Speaker 8: about that, but then, of course on Wednesday we've got 482 00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:20,280 Speaker 8: the start of the Paralympics, so he'll be busy with 483 00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:23,320 Speaker 8: that all day, and then he's going to Serbia on 484 00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:25,520 Speaker 8: a visit for two days at the end of the week. 485 00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:27,639 Speaker 8: So I don't know when he's going to come up 486 00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:29,919 Speaker 8: with any ideas on a new prime minister. I'm afraid, Mike. 487 00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:32,040 Speaker 2: Okay, well, we'll ask you. This is why you're on 488 00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:34,680 Speaker 2: every Tuesday. We'll ask you next Tuesday. Meantime, this bloke 489 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:38,359 Speaker 2: they've nabbed Durov. Where does this go? I mean, is 490 00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:40,840 Speaker 2: it the French You've nabbed him on instruction from others 491 00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:42,560 Speaker 2: or the French just nabbed them because they want to 492 00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 2: do and what are they going to. 493 00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:43,639 Speaker 6: Do with them? 494 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:48,280 Speaker 8: Okay, this is Pavel Durov, this Russian born billionaire who's 495 00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:51,560 Speaker 8: the co founder of Telegram, which has some nine hundred 496 00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:55,240 Speaker 8: and fifty million monthly users on an encryption network. Is 497 00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:58,560 Speaker 8: actually the French who have nabbed him, Mike. They are 498 00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:06,919 Speaker 8: operating on a complaint from Organized Crime unit here in France. Essentially, 499 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:11,000 Speaker 8: what they're saying is that his platform has failed to 500 00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:14,480 Speaker 8: regulate what is going on, and on top of that, 501 00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:19,280 Speaker 8: it has continually refused to cooperate with the authorities. In particular, 502 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:23,720 Speaker 8: they are saying that Telegram has enabled illicit transactions that 503 00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:28,520 Speaker 8: is you, organized crime, fraud. It has allowed the dissemination 504 00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:33,119 Speaker 8: of child pornography. It has also promoted terrorism, and they 505 00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 8: said that because they haven't put in place any of 506 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:40,800 Speaker 8: the mechanisms for monitoring that, for regulating who goes on, 507 00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:44,639 Speaker 8: for actually stopping the sort of activity that he is 508 00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 8: liable for it. So the Paris prosecutor just a couple 509 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,680 Speaker 8: of hours ago said the investigation will be going on 510 00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:53,320 Speaker 8: to that he will still be held in custody here 511 00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:56,520 Speaker 8: in Paris until at least Wednesday, so that's at least 512 00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:59,440 Speaker 8: another forty eight hours. And it's just a way of 513 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:02,760 Speaker 8: they say, showing that they do need to take this 514 00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:07,680 Speaker 8: fight against crime social media much more seriously and in 515 00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:13,040 Speaker 8: particular chance sexual abuse material that gets disseminated on these networks. 516 00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:15,600 Speaker 2: Exactly. All right, good catch up, Catherine, We'll see nextcuse 517 00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:17,680 Speaker 2: So Catherine Field out of France for US this morning. 518 00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:20,800 Speaker 2: So an Uber driver might can work whatever else they 519 00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:22,960 Speaker 2: like a week, zero hours, ten hours, sixty hours, and 520 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:24,639 Speaker 2: can have more than one ride sharing app open and 521 00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:26,359 Speaker 2: running at a time. Who signs up and agrees to 522 00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:29,399 Speaker 2: a contractor can actually be an employee because it suits 523 00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:31,960 Speaker 2: them year right. I actually hope Uber pulls out of 524 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:35,159 Speaker 2: the country. Well they won't, and not to defend what 525 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:36,800 Speaker 2: the court have done here, but what the court have 526 00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:39,119 Speaker 2: done here is not unusual, and there's plenty of it 527 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:41,200 Speaker 2: going on around the world, with the exception of California. 528 00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:43,360 Speaker 2: But I'll come back to that later and next down, Mike. 529 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 2: If the government can't get labor to pass legislation to 530 00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:49,320 Speaker 2: support oil and gas exploration, requiring a seventy percent majority 531 00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:51,520 Speaker 2: to overturn. No companies will come to the country. We 532 00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:53,879 Speaker 2: will become an importer of the inherent risk of relying 533 00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:56,040 Speaker 2: on foreign supply. That's one hundred percent correct. And if 534 00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:58,920 Speaker 2: you were watching Krysto ba Luckxon yesterday, he wants cross 535 00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:02,159 Speaker 2: party support. He won't get cross party support obviously, but 536 00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:04,880 Speaker 2: at least he gave it a COVID inquiry. Hopefully will 537 00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:07,080 Speaker 2: prevent a government ever becoming giddy with power light the 538 00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 2: authoritarian labor government wrong. This is why we've got Brook 539 00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:12,119 Speaker 2: van Belden on the program. It's all very well to 540 00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:14,040 Speaker 2: have part two, and I'm all in favor of part 541 00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:17,240 Speaker 2: two because part one's are stitch up, but part two 542 00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 2: is so loose around the edges that I don't know 543 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:22,000 Speaker 2: what they'll come up with. So more on that in 544 00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:24,960 Speaker 2: the next hour as well. Nine Away from seven on 545 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:28,680 Speaker 2: My Cost Breakfast with the Range Rover, Villa News Talks 546 00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:31,600 Speaker 2: Bikes Away from seven just we're on workplace law. Very 547 00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:35,160 Speaker 2: interesting decision in the US judges struck down the Biden 548 00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:37,800 Speaker 2: administration ban on work a non compete agreement. So this 549 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:40,840 Speaker 2: is a federal judge in Texas. So he's barred the 550 00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:46,000 Speaker 2: Federal Trade Commission the FTC and the rule they wanted 551 00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:49,760 Speaker 2: to take effect would band employee ers from requiring their 552 00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:52,040 Speaker 2: workers to sign non competes. In other words, non compete 553 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:54,240 Speaker 2: means you can't leave it across the road to the competitor. 554 00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:58,720 Speaker 2: It was scheduled to go into effect September four. It's 555 00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:02,359 Speaker 2: now effectively blocked. This is Aida Brown, US District judge 556 00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:06,040 Speaker 2: in Dallas. FTC does not have the authority to ban 557 00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:10,119 Speaker 2: practices it deems unfair methods of competition by adopting broad rules, 558 00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:14,400 Speaker 2: and so the court concludes that the FTC lacks statutory 559 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:17,440 Speaker 2: authority to promulgate the noncompete rule, and that the rule 560 00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:20,639 Speaker 2: is arbitrary and capricious. Thus, the FTC's promulgation of the 561 00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:24,879 Speaker 2: rule is an unlawful agency action. The rule is hereby 562 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:27,479 Speaker 2: set aside and shall not be enforced or otherwise take 563 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:30,840 Speaker 2: effect on September four, twenty twenty four, or thereafter. So 564 00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:33,159 Speaker 2: the more liberal your government, the more they want to 565 00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:34,960 Speaker 2: interfere in your life, and the less choice they want 566 00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:36,919 Speaker 2: to allow you. And that's why the unions love them. 567 00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:38,760 Speaker 2: Of course, because Heaven for bids you should make up 568 00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:41,399 Speaker 2: your own mind as to how you're employed and what 569 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:43,639 Speaker 2: the rules of engagement are. We need courts to do 570 00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:46,119 Speaker 2: that and we need unions to look after you. Apparently 571 00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:47,480 Speaker 2: five away from seven. 572 00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:52,800 Speaker 1: Are the outs. It's the fizz with business Fiber, take 573 00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:55,040 Speaker 1: your business productivity to the next level. 574 00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:56,959 Speaker 2: Little bit of insights wanting you too, how businesses are 575 00:27:56,960 --> 00:27:58,960 Speaker 2: feeling here at the moment. We've got a consultancy firm 576 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:01,520 Speaker 2: Business Changing, and they release their latest state of the 577 00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:04,399 Speaker 2: Nation report as survey two hundred and thirty nine business owners. 578 00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:07,159 Speaker 2: So what have we got? Seventy seven percent reckon the 579 00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:10,720 Speaker 2: current economic time is having a more dramatic impact on 580 00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:13,879 Speaker 2: their business than the COVID years. Seventy seven percent. That's extraordinary, 581 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:16,400 Speaker 2: isn't it. Sixty which is why we're having Part two 582 00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:19,160 Speaker 2: of the COVID inquiry. Of course, sixty three percent think 583 00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:24,399 Speaker 2: right now is the hardest time they've ever seen. It 584 00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:26,280 Speaker 2: was still in Tube that Andrew was telling us about 585 00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:29,160 Speaker 2: earlier on the main issues are getting customers to buy, 586 00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:32,080 Speaker 2: no getting managing cash flow, cost increases from supplies and 587 00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:34,959 Speaker 2: high interest rates. They're cutting back these businesses as well 588 00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:37,440 Speaker 2: as seventy five percent directively cutting costs this year, which 589 00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:39,800 Speaker 2: is up from sixty three percent last year and fifty 590 00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:42,080 Speaker 2: five percent the year before. That trend's going the wrong way. 591 00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:45,400 Speaker 2: Little bit of bright news. A net seven percent of 592 00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:47,600 Speaker 2: feeling negative about the economy for the rest of the year. 593 00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:50,600 Speaker 2: That's a net seven but it was twenty two percent 594 00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:53,120 Speaker 2: last year, and it was fifty four percent and twenty 595 00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:55,040 Speaker 2: twenty two, so that's moving in the right direction. So 596 00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:58,800 Speaker 2: we'll take that. Eighty percent have confidence in the government 597 00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:01,200 Speaker 2: to get us through. That's encouraged, which is probably why 598 00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:02,800 Speaker 2: the Poles are saying what the Poles are saying at 599 00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:05,120 Speaker 2: the moment. A year ago it was only fifteen percent, 600 00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:07,560 Speaker 2: and before that it was twenty six percent, so it's 601 00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:09,280 Speaker 2: gone from twenty six out of fifteen back up to 602 00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:12,240 Speaker 2: eighty So that is encouraging for the Prime Minister. Christ 603 00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:14,080 Speaker 2: of the Luxtion News with us after seven thirty. What 604 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:17,120 Speaker 2: we didn't get yesterday and the postcap press conference which 605 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:21,200 Speaker 2: I watched on your behalf was a definitive explanation. As 606 00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:23,720 Speaker 2: they're clearing the way they're flipping the oil and gas band. 607 00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:25,760 Speaker 2: We know all that stuff, but they're clearing the way 608 00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:32,160 Speaker 2: regulatorily speaking to import LNG, that is going to take 609 00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:35,440 Speaker 2: a year. Now, why it takes a year to shuffle 610 00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:37,719 Speaker 2: aside a bit of red tape and paperwork. I've got 611 00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:39,640 Speaker 2: no idea, but that's why we got the Prime Minister 612 00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:42,320 Speaker 2: and here's with us after seven thirty the. 613 00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:46,360 Speaker 1: Breakfast show you can trust the mic Hosking Breakfast with 614 00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:50,680 Speaker 1: al Vida, Retirement Communities, Life Your Way News, Tog said. 615 00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:52,560 Speaker 2: B seven past seven. So the government moving on this 616 00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:55,080 Speaker 2: energy sector to try and sure up the supply. Part 617 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:56,920 Speaker 2: of it is getting the regulation out of the way 618 00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:58,800 Speaker 2: so we can get the LNG into the country. Port 619 00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:00,800 Speaker 2: Taranaki's part of it. Particul A picture of the boss 620 00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:02,800 Speaker 2: of Simon Kratik is well a Simon, very good morning 621 00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:05,640 Speaker 2: to you. Good morning make Did it surprise you to 622 00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:07,880 Speaker 2: learn yesterday from the minister that's going to take them 623 00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:09,480 Speaker 2: a year to get regulation out of the way, And 624 00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:10,640 Speaker 2: if so, why is that? 625 00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 8: No? 626 00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:16,560 Speaker 16: It didn't surprise me. I mean, I think the challenges 627 00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:20,240 Speaker 16: that these projects are large and complex. What we're doing 628 00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:21,880 Speaker 16: here at the port is looking at how we can 629 00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:25,000 Speaker 16: play a role and stand up a solution that's low 630 00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:27,840 Speaker 16: cost and high capacity. But we'll just have to wait 631 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:31,400 Speaker 16: for all of the industry to get together and the 632 00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:33,160 Speaker 16: enabling regulations. 633 00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:34,080 Speaker 2: To be put in place, which is what I was 634 00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:36,320 Speaker 2: going to ask Channel or is interested there? The Marsden 635 00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:39,720 Speaker 2: people Genesis, I think are also interested. Is everybody coordinating 636 00:30:39,960 --> 00:30:41,680 Speaker 2: or you or all in it saying well, this is 637 00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:44,280 Speaker 2: an opportunity for our bottom line, so we'll get stuck in. 638 00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:48,000 Speaker 16: Well, I think there's definitely a coalition of the willing 639 00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:52,280 Speaker 16: who can see the benefits of LNG import. It seems 640 00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:57,000 Speaker 16: like the gas industry Company is for the logical coordinating body, 641 00:30:57,480 --> 00:30:59,840 Speaker 16: and I think that coordination really needs to kick off 642 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 16: and contact with the major players that would be interested 643 00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:08,880 Speaker 16: in it. And we're looking at the benefits of our location, 644 00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:11,800 Speaker 16: and it's fair to say there's a range of options, 645 00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:17,640 Speaker 16: but we think our existing infrastructure, available capacity, proximity the 646 00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:22,240 Speaker 16: Male gas pipeline, and potential connection to existing underground gas 647 00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:25,280 Speaker 16: storage means we've got a number of benefits for our location. 648 00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:28,920 Speaker 2: Indeed, if they said this afternoon, go how quickly could 649 00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:29,560 Speaker 2: you make it happen? 650 00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:33,920 Speaker 16: Well, I think everyone naturally focuses on the port infrastructure 651 00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:36,480 Speaker 16: as part of the technical solution. But it's fair to say, 652 00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:40,959 Speaker 16: the commercial considerations are very broad, so I think our 653 00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:44,640 Speaker 16: part of the physical infrastructure is actually relatively straightforward. Alergy 654 00:31:44,720 --> 00:31:47,200 Speaker 16: has changed a lot in the last twenty years. Most 655 00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:50,560 Speaker 16: of the infrastructure now floats on the floating storage and 656 00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:53,600 Speaker 16: regas vessels, so the pored infrastructure can be quite simple. 657 00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:56,800 Speaker 16: We think we can stand that up in around eighteen months, 658 00:31:57,200 --> 00:31:59,200 Speaker 16: but it's fair to say the lead time for vessels 659 00:31:59,240 --> 00:31:59,760 Speaker 16: could be longer. 660 00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:02,120 Speaker 2: Okay, And so would you be in a better position 661 00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:04,600 Speaker 2: than many other ports like Marsden or Channel as they 662 00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:06,360 Speaker 2: call themselves, or any other port round the country to 663 00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:07,440 Speaker 2: make this happen quicker or not? 664 00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:11,240 Speaker 16: It depends on scenario. We think we're well placed to 665 00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:16,640 Speaker 16: deliver on small scale lerg rapidly. As you scale up 666 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:20,040 Speaker 16: the port would require more modifications. But then you have 667 00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:22,600 Speaker 16: to go back and say, what's the market scenario that 668 00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:25,560 Speaker 16: we're trying to meet? How much gas, how often? The 669 00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:28,080 Speaker 16: what flow rate? So those inputs are critical to a 670 00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:28,680 Speaker 16: port solution. 671 00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:30,240 Speaker 2: Have you got a view on that, because what I 672 00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:32,120 Speaker 2: couldn't get out of the government yesterday and they didn't 673 00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:34,000 Speaker 2: seem to know, was once you get this up and running, 674 00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:36,560 Speaker 2: you presumably want to have it part of the mix permanently, 675 00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:38,480 Speaker 2: as opposed to a shortstop solution. 676 00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:42,320 Speaker 16: Well, I think that those assumptions are critical. I think 677 00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:46,520 Speaker 16: I heard John Carnegie say this morning that everyone wants 678 00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:48,480 Speaker 16: to get a return on this investment. So the question 679 00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:50,680 Speaker 16: is what's the short term? Is this a stop gap, 680 00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:54,680 Speaker 16: intermiscient solution for dry years, does it become more of 681 00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:56,880 Speaker 16: a feature of the gas market, and does it go 682 00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:59,080 Speaker 16: away once renewable stand up? I think those are the 683 00:32:59,160 --> 00:32:59,640 Speaker 16: key questions. 684 00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:01,600 Speaker 2: While I've got you. I don't know if it's anywhere, 685 00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:04,480 Speaker 2: but this method X thing, for example, is does that 686 00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:05,600 Speaker 2: affect you badly? 687 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:09,440 Speaker 16: Yes, it does. Methanole's the biggest trade through the port, 688 00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:13,040 Speaker 16: so when methinx stops producing, that definitely affects our business. 689 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:13,360 Speaker 17: Yeah. 690 00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:15,280 Speaker 2: So I'm looking at your result yesterday. You gave a 691 00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:17,640 Speaker 2: nice dividend to the local council and everything. So all 692 00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:19,920 Speaker 2: of these things are interrelated, and I'm not sure that 693 00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:23,040 Speaker 2: people necessarily understand that. So methodics selling something off to 694 00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:26,720 Speaker 2: somebody else, they're doing well, good on them, but you're not. 695 00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:28,760 Speaker 2: So there's a problem, isn't it. 696 00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:31,560 Speaker 18: Well, yeah, it's a. 697 00:33:31,560 --> 00:33:34,120 Speaker 16: Problem for us. We're obviously here to serve our customers, 698 00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:36,880 Speaker 16: So we're you know, we support whatever our customers need 699 00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:39,840 Speaker 16: to do, but it definitely does hurt our business, and 700 00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:41,800 Speaker 16: you know, we have to think off to the medium 701 00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:44,239 Speaker 16: term around what does our business look like. It's going 702 00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:46,719 Speaker 16: to have to transition as well. So we're looking at 703 00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:51,120 Speaker 16: supporting optional whind renewable projects that they go ahead and various. 704 00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:52,600 Speaker 6: Other things that offshore. 705 00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:55,600 Speaker 2: When they talked about yesterday, how real is that if 706 00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:57,320 Speaker 2: it takes them a year to get rid of regulation 707 00:33:57,440 --> 00:33:59,280 Speaker 2: on LNG, how long is it going to take them 708 00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:01,200 Speaker 2: to build a mass windmill out to see. 709 00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:06,400 Speaker 16: Well, they are very large projects, giggle wattscale projects, They 710 00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:09,040 Speaker 16: take a long time. But I think you know, the 711 00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:11,520 Speaker 16: point we keep making is if New Zealand wants to 712 00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:15,040 Speaker 16: have the option on doing offshore wind, what you need 713 00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:17,759 Speaker 16: is the right port infrastructure. We look around the world 714 00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:20,080 Speaker 16: and we see nothing happens and off sure wind without ports. 715 00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:23,239 Speaker 16: And I think that's up to debate whether the pipeline 716 00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:26,439 Speaker 16: bonds for renewables is going to be sufficient or whether 717 00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:30,560 Speaker 16: offshore will be required, But we certainly want to stand 718 00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:31,760 Speaker 16: ready if it is required. 719 00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:34,239 Speaker 2: Rod Stuff, Simon appreciate the insight. Simon Cratick who's the 720 00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:37,120 Speaker 2: the port Taranak and CEO endlessly fascinated by this twelve 721 00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:40,080 Speaker 2: and is past seven Also in this actually the COVID 722 00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:42,240 Speaker 2: Royal Commission. So we now got the terms of reference 723 00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:45,560 Speaker 2: for Phase two. Use of vaccines and lockdowns will be investigated. 724 00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:49,440 Speaker 2: Also whether a reasonable balance was struck between public safety 725 00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:52,239 Speaker 2: and economic disruption. The Internal Fairs Minister Brooklyn Belden's in 726 00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:53,440 Speaker 2: Chargeable Thisten, is with us. 727 00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:55,359 Speaker 10: Good morning, godn'y mate. 728 00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:58,440 Speaker 2: Grant Illingworth, k C, Judith Kavanah and Anthony Hill. Who 729 00:34:58,560 --> 00:34:59,759 Speaker 2: are they and why do you pick them? 730 00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:01,560 Speaker 19: Well? 731 00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:04,040 Speaker 10: I picked some because I think they're all outstanding news 732 00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:10,319 Speaker 10: yonders who have broad ranges specialization within a litigation. Grant 733 00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:15,480 Speaker 10: Illingworth Casey is a highly regarded been through all aspects 734 00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:19,359 Speaker 10: of the Privy Council, Supreme Court, Court of Appeal, done 735 00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:21,920 Speaker 10: lots of litigation cases and brings that skill set to 736 00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:26,680 Speaker 10: the table. Judy Cavana decades worth of experience in economics 737 00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:30,960 Speaker 10: and Anthony Hill a huge experience in public health. And 738 00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:32,960 Speaker 10: this is the broad range of skills that should be 739 00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:37,040 Speaker 10: looking into what we should do from here to have 740 00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:41,120 Speaker 10: lessons learned for a future pandemic looking at the decisions 741 00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:44,480 Speaker 10: made by the previous government. Now, one thing I want 742 00:35:44,520 --> 00:35:47,320 Speaker 10: to make really clear is this is what Act campaigned on. 743 00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:49,560 Speaker 10: It's what we're now delivering. But it's been based on 744 00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:52,479 Speaker 10: what key we's wanted, which was to expand the terms 745 00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:56,080 Speaker 10: of reference based on what we didn't believe was adequately 746 00:35:56,120 --> 00:36:00,439 Speaker 10: addressed in what's now phase one of the commission into 747 00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:04,520 Speaker 10: the vaccine mandates, which we know had a huge detrimental 748 00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:07,160 Speaker 10: impact of people who weren't able to go to their 749 00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:11,320 Speaker 10: family member's funerals for example, of work, but also people 750 00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:16,720 Speaker 10: concerned it what that impact had on their children's education, 751 00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:20,120 Speaker 10: being able to have business activity. Whether or not we've 752 00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:22,320 Speaker 10: got that balance right between people not being able to 753 00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:23,600 Speaker 10: get briefleeted we didn't. 754 00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:26,239 Speaker 2: We're living in the third recession in two years, where 755 00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:29,880 Speaker 2: one of the most hopeless economies in the world. But 756 00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:32,719 Speaker 2: here's your question when you talk to them about a 757 00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:37,920 Speaker 2: reasonable balance, define reasonable balance, and. 758 00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:41,759 Speaker 10: That's what the commissioners will have to weigh up. Were 759 00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:44,080 Speaker 10: the decisions that were taken by the government at the 760 00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:48,719 Speaker 10: time based on information that the government was presented. Did 761 00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:52,480 Speaker 10: they use that information or did they discard it? What 762 00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:57,080 Speaker 10: was that balance versus what other countries and jurisdictions were 763 00:36:57,160 --> 00:37:00,239 Speaker 10: doing and whether or not they actually got it right. Now, 764 00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:01,960 Speaker 10: I know a lot of New Zealanders will say, no, 765 00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:04,480 Speaker 10: we didn't get it right. But what we're asking these 766 00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:07,680 Speaker 10: three commissions to do is delve into the facts and 767 00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:11,120 Speaker 10: come up with recommendations for the future. They'll be independent, 768 00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:16,080 Speaker 10: going away for over a year, getting evidence, bringing submissions 769 00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:18,360 Speaker 10: from members of the public who I hope we'll be 770 00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:22,000 Speaker 10: able to submit their thoughts on this inquiry too, and 771 00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:23,680 Speaker 10: actually come to the truth of the matter. 772 00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:27,879 Speaker 2: Okay, super quick, is your labor reform going to sort 773 00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:30,120 Speaker 2: the you the case and cases like it or not? 774 00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:34,120 Speaker 10: But I can't talk about any particular case that might 775 00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:37,040 Speaker 10: be before the courts. But what we are clear on 776 00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:40,279 Speaker 10: is that even this court case has created uncertainty for 777 00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:44,480 Speaker 10: contractors by and large in our economy. What I'm hoping 778 00:37:44,560 --> 00:37:47,120 Speaker 10: to do is create a bit of clarity between what 779 00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:52,320 Speaker 10: is that divide between an employee and a contractor, so 780 00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:55,440 Speaker 10: that businesses and workers can actually have more certainty on 781 00:37:55,520 --> 00:37:56,160 Speaker 10: those barriers. 782 00:37:56,680 --> 00:37:59,840 Speaker 2: Good, go well with it, Brook van Velden, Internal Affairs Minister. 783 00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:01,400 Speaker 2: It is fifteen past seven. 784 00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:07,360 Speaker 1: The like asking breakfast full show podcast on iHeartRadio powered 785 00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:08,759 Speaker 1: by News Talks, a'd be and. 786 00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:11,919 Speaker 2: Chris Blaxen shortly eighteen past seven. Some question marks around 787 00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:14,920 Speaker 2: the financial health of our universities this morning, paperwork from 788 00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:18,359 Speaker 2: the Tertiary Commission to the Tertiary Minister suggests, among other things, 789 00:38:18,440 --> 00:38:20,400 Speaker 2: Massy and Victoria, for example, the books are seen as 790 00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:23,480 Speaker 2: high risk Universities New Zealand Chief Executive Chris William with 791 00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:26,080 Speaker 2: us on this Chris Morning to you, Good morning. They 792 00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:28,759 Speaker 2: don't agree how open to interpretation is all of this? 793 00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:34,759 Speaker 17: Looked like everything? These are large, complex organizations. There's a 794 00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:37,399 Speaker 17: lot of leaders that they can pull. The one leaver 795 00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:40,640 Speaker 17: they can't pull as government funding, and of course government 796 00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:43,600 Speaker 17: controls about seventy percent of their funding, so they've got 797 00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:46,880 Speaker 17: a lot of choice around expenditure and they're making those choices. 798 00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:49,680 Speaker 17: But like most of these things, that comes down to 799 00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:50,760 Speaker 17: a conversation with government. 800 00:38:50,840 --> 00:38:52,360 Speaker 2: Correct me if I'm wrong, because I can see that 801 00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:55,640 Speaker 2: I can believe figures right, eight universities with a collective 802 00:38:55,680 --> 00:38:56,720 Speaker 2: debt of forty two million? 803 00:38:56,800 --> 00:38:57,200 Speaker 6: Is that right? 804 00:38:58,080 --> 00:39:01,120 Speaker 17: That'd be right? Not talking about you, yeah, well that's right. 805 00:39:01,200 --> 00:39:03,399 Speaker 17: You're talking about universities that are turning over about four 806 00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:07,040 Speaker 17: billion dollars a year, but doesn't mean they're not under 807 00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:09,600 Speaker 17: a lot of pressure. Their costs are continuing to go 808 00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:12,800 Speaker 17: up and funding unfortunately isn't okay. 809 00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:16,160 Speaker 2: So for a budgeting a deficit to a break even 810 00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:18,640 Speaker 2: to a surplus, some of them paperwork suggests that this 811 00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:21,719 Speaker 2: is heroic in their estimations. Do you accept that or not? 812 00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:22,040 Speaker 6: Really? 813 00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:27,480 Speaker 17: Look hard to tell. Every university has a council. Councils 814 00:39:27,520 --> 00:39:31,400 Speaker 17: contain independent members and you know, their job is to 815 00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:34,359 Speaker 17: ensure that there is a realistic financial view of how 816 00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:37,880 Speaker 17: universities are fairing. Of course they're running upside and downside 817 00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:41,479 Speaker 17: scenarios good and bad, you know, and they're all trying 818 00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:43,520 Speaker 17: to manage their way through what is a very tough 819 00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:44,400 Speaker 17: financial situation. 820 00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:46,880 Speaker 2: Exactly how much of this is about international students and 821 00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:48,839 Speaker 2: they haven't come back and the money didn't come with them. 822 00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:53,439 Speaker 17: Actually, it's less about that the international students have come back. 823 00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:56,839 Speaker 17: We had a few problems earlier this year with real 824 00:39:56,920 --> 00:40:01,239 Speaker 17: bottomnecks around immigration visa pro and it looks like they're 825 00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:03,200 Speaker 17: going to be fixed for future years. So there are 826 00:40:03,239 --> 00:40:06,000 Speaker 17: some students that just couldn't get here. But actually the 827 00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:09,040 Speaker 17: numbers are looking good. We're almost back to pre COVID devils. 828 00:40:09,239 --> 00:40:10,960 Speaker 2: Okay, nice to talk to you. Appreciate it very much, 829 00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:13,160 Speaker 2: Chris Wheeler, I'm glad we've got that number right. Eight universities. 830 00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:14,520 Speaker 2: Think of the size of the university and they've got 831 00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:16,080 Speaker 2: forty two million dollars worth of DIN. I mean, really 832 00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:18,279 Speaker 2: is that a problem. Let's come back to the uber 833 00:40:18,320 --> 00:40:20,000 Speaker 2: case in just a moment. Seven twenty. 834 00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:26,279 Speaker 1: The Mike Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio, car 835 00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:27,560 Speaker 1: of by News Talk Zippy. 836 00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:30,400 Speaker 2: Right, if you're a business leader, you know how important 837 00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:32,359 Speaker 2: the old knowledge workers are too. You've got your fast 838 00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:35,080 Speaker 2: rising salaries, you got your scarcity of talent, so that'll 839 00:40:35,120 --> 00:40:36,239 Speaker 2: keep you up at night. But what if you can 840 00:40:36,280 --> 00:40:38,319 Speaker 2: give them an amazing boost to the productivity? What if 841 00:40:38,320 --> 00:40:40,279 Speaker 2: you could you take away that routine in the boring 842 00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:42,239 Speaker 2: work holding them back.

One net, 857 00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:25,280 Speaker 2: dot co, dot nz right, PASKI three. The New Zealand 858 00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:27,400 Speaker 2: UBA drivers have won their cases. You will aware on 859 00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:30,120 Speaker 2: this appeals court. The appeals court agrees with the employment court, 860 00:41:30,160 --> 00:41:33,560 Speaker 2: which is where it started, that Uber drivers should be employees, 861 00:41:33,719 --> 00:41:36,200 Speaker 2: not contractors. Now, other courts in other countries have broadly 862 00:41:36,239 --> 00:41:38,399 Speaker 2: come down on the same lines, but as I told 863 00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:41,480 Speaker 2: you last week, not in California. In California are the court, 864 00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:44,000 Speaker 2: their highest court there agreed with the people, and the 865 00:41:44,080 --> 00:41:47,600 Speaker 2: people had voted in a proper proposition that drivers should 866 00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:52,320 Speaker 2: be contractors because that's what drivers signed up to. So 867 00:41:52,480 --> 00:41:54,759 Speaker 2: you can ask the question, I suppose is democracy right 868 00:41:55,160 --> 00:41:57,680 Speaker 2: as it in California or is the court right? Isn't here? 869 00:41:57,760 --> 00:41:57,880 Speaker 9: Now? 870 00:41:57,920 --> 00:42:00,400 Speaker 2: The court heres said the critical point is think that 871 00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:02,759 Speaker 2: while the driver is logged into the driver app, that 872 00:42:02,920 --> 00:42:05,560 Speaker 2: driver has no opportunity to establish any business goodwill of 873 00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:07,560 Speaker 2: their own. Now I guess that's true. I guess, but 874 00:42:07,680 --> 00:42:10,600 Speaker 2: doesn't make any sense to me. In a pure gig model, 875 00:42:11,120 --> 00:42:13,719 Speaker 2: you get to choose right, you work, you don't work. 876 00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:17,160 Speaker 2: It's about flexibility the moment you're an employee. Yes, you 877 00:42:17,239 --> 00:42:20,560 Speaker 2: get leave, but you also lose some control. Despite what 878 00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:22,840 Speaker 2: the court and the four drivers think, some people actually 879 00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:27,160 Speaker 2: like flexibility and freedom. Drivers, the court said, couldn't bargain 880 00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:29,799 Speaker 2: with Uber, and that is of course correct. But that's 881 00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:31,959 Speaker 2: the whole point of a gig deal. The gig deal 882 00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:34,160 Speaker 2: is predicated on the idea that if the deal is 883 00:42:34,239 --> 00:42:36,120 Speaker 2: so bad, no one's going to work for them. And 884 00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:38,200 Speaker 2: the counter to the no bargain and all the other 885 00:42:38,600 --> 00:42:42,480 Speaker 2: lack of overarching rules and regulations. Is it simple to 886 00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:44,799 Speaker 2: take it or leave it. That's what it is. It's 887 00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:46,839 Speaker 2: a take it or leave it proposition. If you find 888 00:42:46,840 --> 00:42:49,680 Speaker 2: it too egregious, don't take it. If you want a 889 00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:53,160 Speaker 2: union and industrial action and pay agreements, and time and 890 00:42:53,200 --> 00:42:55,239 Speaker 2: liew and stop work meetings be a teacher or a nurse. 891 00:42:55,480 --> 00:42:57,920 Speaker 2: The tricky part, now, apart from the fact Uber will 892 00:42:57,920 --> 00:42:59,800 Speaker 2: take it to the Supreme Court, which they should, is 893 00:42:59,840 --> 00:43:02,320 Speaker 2: that the government are reviewing this workplace relations as we 894 00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:04,560 Speaker 2: mentioned with Brooker Marma ago, and given it's driven by 895 00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:07,239 Speaker 2: Act I, suspect it will be looking to free things 896 00:43:07,320 --> 00:43:09,480 Speaker 2: up a bit in this court case and its decision 897 00:43:09,520 --> 00:43:11,560 Speaker 2: may well be a victim of what eventually gets past 898 00:43:11,680 --> 00:43:13,880 Speaker 2: us law. No we don't, I get it. No, we 899 00:43:13,960 --> 00:43:16,800 Speaker 2: don't want seven year olds going down minds or up chimneys. 900 00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:20,440 Speaker 2: Hence we need protections. But it's not Victorian England. It's 901 00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:22,880 Speaker 2: New Zealand twenty twenty four. And if you choose to 902 00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:24,840 Speaker 2: be your own person, all power to you, and the 903 00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:28,360 Speaker 2: courts can stay out of your life. Asking why not 904 00:43:28,440 --> 00:43:32,600 Speaker 2: ask why the COVID Stage two inquiry doesn't cover where 905 00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:34,960 Speaker 2: all the money went? And was there any justification for 906 00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:37,440 Speaker 2: the spinabile it does it will, Daniel, don't panic about that. 907 00:43:37,680 --> 00:43:39,320 Speaker 2: I've changed my mind a little bit on that. I 908 00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:41,800 Speaker 2: was a bit unsure about an adversarial approach and this 909 00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:45,080 Speaker 2: one isn't part one or Part two and I'm concluding 910 00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:47,359 Speaker 2: it should be, because here's what's going to happen. As 911 00:43:47,440 --> 00:43:49,920 Speaker 2: much as I wish it was different. These guys will 912 00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:52,440 Speaker 2: write part two, and the current guys will write part one, 913 00:43:52,560 --> 00:43:54,080 Speaker 2: and we'll have Part one and part two and there 914 00:43:54,080 --> 00:43:55,520 Speaker 2: it is. Now, do you think a government's going to 915 00:43:55,560 --> 00:43:57,239 Speaker 2: listen to that? Do you think Labor's going to read that? 916 00:43:57,239 --> 00:43:58,960 Speaker 2: You think they're going to flick a copy to Jacinda 917 00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:01,680 Speaker 2: at Harbor and she's going to read it, and she's 918 00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:03,520 Speaker 2: going to go, my word, I didn't realize what a 919 00:44:03,600 --> 00:44:06,040 Speaker 2: cockup i'd made. Goodness make I'll never do that again. 920 00:44:06,280 --> 00:44:08,880 Speaker 2: None of it's going to make any difference whatsoever. Whereas, 921 00:44:08,920 --> 00:44:11,160 Speaker 2: at least in an adversarial approach, which is what they're 922 00:44:11,200 --> 00:44:13,560 Speaker 2: running for the example, in the UK, you get the 923 00:44:13,600 --> 00:44:17,600 Speaker 2: people who made the decisions, the Addourns, the Hepkins, the Bloomfields, 924 00:44:17,680 --> 00:44:19,279 Speaker 2: and you get them in front of people who and 925 00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:21,840 Speaker 2: you make them answer some questions, you get them to 926 00:44:21,960 --> 00:44:24,600 Speaker 2: explain themselves, and at least we're at that point we 927 00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:26,560 Speaker 2: can all see what they were thinking at the time 928 00:44:26,719 --> 00:44:28,959 Speaker 2: and whether or not, I mean, we know it didn't 929 00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:30,880 Speaker 2: work out properly, we know, I mean, you don't have 930 00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:33,200 Speaker 2: three recessions in two years and then go, oh, well, 931 00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:35,960 Speaker 2: work really well, didn't Mike. Let's not forget the John 932 00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:39,080 Speaker 2: Key's government promoted and encouraged and allowed the exploration of 933 00:44:39,360 --> 00:44:42,440 Speaker 2: oil and gas. These offshore companies came then left, not 934 00:44:42,520 --> 00:44:44,719 Speaker 2: because the opposition, but because they could not find any 935 00:44:44,719 --> 00:44:48,719 Speaker 2: significant commercially viable gas or authors. You're running the environmentalist line. 936 00:44:49,040 --> 00:44:51,880 Speaker 2: It's partially true. It is true to say that not 937 00:44:52,000 --> 00:44:54,680 Speaker 2: a lot of gas has been found, but it's more 938 00:44:54,800 --> 00:44:57,800 Speaker 2: true to say that the government decision labor had a 939 00:44:57,880 --> 00:45:01,720 Speaker 2: chilling effect. They stopped drilling, stopped investing, and they handed 940 00:45:01,800 --> 00:45:03,640 Speaker 2: them their licenses and they went to some of the 941 00:45:03,719 --> 00:45:05,799 Speaker 2: one hundred and ninety five other countries around the world 942 00:45:05,840 --> 00:45:08,239 Speaker 2: that still allow you to drill for oil and gas. 943 00:45:08,640 --> 00:45:10,160 Speaker 2: More on this with Christopher Luxen. 944 00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:16,800 Speaker 1: Next Big Us Bold Opinions The mic Hosking Breakfast with 945 00:45:17,040 --> 00:45:20,520 Speaker 1: the range Rover be La designed to intrigue and use 946 00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:21,520 Speaker 1: togs hed been what. 947 00:45:21,600 --> 00:45:24,280 Speaker 2: If weeks away from Mate Ellison Moyer hasn't done anything 948 00:45:24,360 --> 00:45:27,600 Speaker 2: for eight years. New album's coming and a tour which 949 00:45:27,640 --> 00:45:29,720 Speaker 2: includes New Zealand teams will us after Day The Classman 950 00:45:29,760 --> 00:45:32,120 Speaker 2: Times to use the modern Christopherluckson joins us, ponding to you, 951 00:45:33,480 --> 00:45:36,040 Speaker 2: Good morning, Mike, see today very well. Indeed, give us 952 00:45:36,120 --> 00:45:38,800 Speaker 2: the what I didn't get out of your press conference yesterday. 953 00:45:38,880 --> 00:45:41,480 Speaker 2: This business of LNG and clearing the regulation that Simming 954 00:45:41,520 --> 00:45:43,480 Speaker 2: and kept talking about in the winter of twenty five. 955 00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:45,759 Speaker 2: Why don't we just speak English? Why does it take 956 00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:48,040 Speaker 2: you twelve months to clear red tape and regulation to 957 00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:49,360 Speaker 2: bring a bit of gas into the country. 958 00:45:50,400 --> 00:45:52,279 Speaker 19: Well, I think I'll be faster than one year. There's 959 00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:54,239 Speaker 19: two parts to it. Most of the time, frankly, is 960 00:45:54,280 --> 00:45:57,160 Speaker 19: getting it's quite complex time to get the engineering in place, 961 00:45:57,320 --> 00:45:59,359 Speaker 19: whether it's put into a porter, whether it's actually put 962 00:45:59,400 --> 00:46:03,920 Speaker 19: into an offshore or a place that can pipe it 963 00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:06,160 Speaker 19: in from a ship. So you know, there's actually an 964 00:46:06,160 --> 00:46:07,840 Speaker 19: engineering solution that takes a little bit of time to 965 00:46:07,880 --> 00:46:08,279 Speaker 19: get right. 966 00:46:09,040 --> 00:46:09,600 Speaker 9: We will. 967 00:46:09,760 --> 00:46:11,719 Speaker 19: We're working now with the Gas Industry Company and that 968 00:46:11,840 --> 00:46:13,759 Speaker 19: basically has to get all the regulations cleaned up so 969 00:46:13,840 --> 00:46:15,719 Speaker 19: we can then push it through Parliament and get the 970 00:46:15,800 --> 00:46:18,680 Speaker 19: legislation sorted in less than six months. And then what 971 00:46:18,760 --> 00:46:20,440 Speaker 19: we do from there is then get obviously into the 972 00:46:20,480 --> 00:46:23,320 Speaker 19: engineering solution and get it in place next year. So 973 00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:26,200 Speaker 19: you know, that's really important because you know, as you know, 974 00:46:26,840 --> 00:46:29,719 Speaker 19: we've just had a massive you know, less loss of 975 00:46:30,200 --> 00:46:31,760 Speaker 19: you know, I guess a New Zealand. 976 00:46:31,920 --> 00:46:35,359 Speaker 2: Yes, yes, indeed, and this was not probably yesterday either. 977 00:46:35,600 --> 00:46:38,520 Speaker 2: Once you get LNG into the country, does that, given 978 00:46:38,520 --> 00:46:41,880 Speaker 2: the infrastructural issues concerned, does that then become a permanent 979 00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:46,320 Speaker 2: and ongoing part of the supply mix. Could well be. 980 00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:49,080 Speaker 19: But what we also hope overturning the oil and gas 981 00:46:49,160 --> 00:46:52,040 Speaker 19: band is that will get local expiration happening as well. 982 00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:56,200 Speaker 19: But at the moment, the global spot price for LNG 983 00:46:56,320 --> 00:46:59,200 Speaker 19: would be cheaper over to the editors and local domestic 984 00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:02,160 Speaker 19: pot price for gas obviously, and there's such a shortage 985 00:47:02,160 --> 00:47:04,440 Speaker 19: of it here in New Zealand. So we want to 986 00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:06,960 Speaker 19: have that flexibility and that security by actually having an 987 00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:10,120 Speaker 19: ability to import al G in fifty countries do around 988 00:47:10,160 --> 00:47:12,680 Speaker 19: the world. We shouldn't have to because frankly, we've got 989 00:47:12,760 --> 00:47:14,200 Speaker 19: gas here in New Zealand that we should be able 990 00:47:14,239 --> 00:47:16,680 Speaker 19: to pull out, you know, domestically, do you yeah. 991 00:47:16,719 --> 00:47:20,280 Speaker 2: Because part of the argument on gas as yes, I know, labor, 992 00:47:20,320 --> 00:47:22,239 Speaker 2: I get all of that, and I understand it. But 993 00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:24,680 Speaker 2: there's been a lot of exploration up until that point 994 00:47:24,760 --> 00:47:26,200 Speaker 2: and not a lot of gas found. 995 00:47:27,440 --> 00:47:29,960 Speaker 19: Yeah, I just say like that, before the gas ban happened, 996 00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:32,480 Speaker 19: I think it was like eighty eight thousand square kilometers 997 00:47:32,520 --> 00:47:36,279 Speaker 19: of exploration acreage under permit day. You know, it's only 998 00:47:36,360 --> 00:47:39,680 Speaker 19: six thousand, and there's been a massive you know, with 999 00:47:39,760 --> 00:47:42,080 Speaker 19: that band that's had very much an effect where if 1000 00:47:42,080 --> 00:47:45,200 Speaker 19: you're a potential global investor wanting to do exploration in 1001 00:47:45,239 --> 00:47:46,799 Speaker 19: New Zealand, you hear the band, you say, all cheap 1002 00:47:46,840 --> 00:47:48,480 Speaker 19: as I'm out of here, I'll go to one of 1003 00:47:48,520 --> 00:47:50,120 Speaker 19: the other countries around the world that actually wants me 1004 00:47:50,520 --> 00:47:53,080 Speaker 19: and actually, to be honest, Mike Insidda, when I sat 1005 00:47:53,120 --> 00:47:56,200 Speaker 19: down with the investors, high energy prices was one of 1006 00:47:56,239 --> 00:47:59,160 Speaker 19: the major concerns of potential international investors into New Zealand 1007 00:47:59,160 --> 00:48:01,200 Speaker 19: as well. So yeah, I don't buy that argument. We 1008 00:48:01,239 --> 00:48:03,840 Speaker 19: should be exploring as much domestic gas as we possibly 1009 00:48:03,920 --> 00:48:06,560 Speaker 19: can and also have the flexibility to import it when 1010 00:48:06,600 --> 00:48:08,600 Speaker 19: we desperately need it, and that as an option. 1011 00:48:08,719 --> 00:48:11,360 Speaker 6: So the point turn all the taps on. 1012 00:48:12,120 --> 00:48:15,719 Speaker 2: The only point I'm making is exploring, isn't finding. Exploring 1013 00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:16,920 Speaker 2: is just looking. 1014 00:48:18,239 --> 00:48:21,000 Speaker 19: Sure, But I think when you've sent the message pretty 1015 00:48:21,680 --> 00:48:24,800 Speaker 19: chaostically into an international investor market to say yeah, we 1016 00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:27,080 Speaker 19: don't really like you and or oil and gas exploration. 1017 00:48:27,680 --> 00:48:29,560 Speaker 19: There's plenty of other countries to go do that. And 1018 00:48:30,160 --> 00:48:32,560 Speaker 19: when you've got choices, and we've got to make the 1019 00:48:32,640 --> 00:48:35,000 Speaker 19: environment to give people confidence to do that. And that's 1020 00:48:35,000 --> 00:48:38,120 Speaker 19: why we are changing those settings, setting them out so 1021 00:48:38,120 --> 00:48:40,279 Speaker 19: that people can come in and actually have confidence that 1022 00:48:40,320 --> 00:48:42,439 Speaker 19: they're not going to be disrupted and have the whole 1023 00:48:42,440 --> 00:48:43,520 Speaker 19: world turned upside down. 1024 00:48:43,360 --> 00:48:43,799 Speaker 18: On them again. 1025 00:48:43,920 --> 00:48:46,080 Speaker 2: Okay, and given you guys went to some great lens, 1026 00:48:46,160 --> 00:48:49,760 Speaker 2: particularly swimming, and to say this is a supply side issue, 1027 00:48:49,920 --> 00:48:53,319 Speaker 2: Increase the supply will solve the problem. Does that then 1028 00:48:53,480 --> 00:48:56,520 Speaker 2: mean you're comfortable with the Gen Taylor mix. In other words, 1029 00:48:56,560 --> 00:48:58,800 Speaker 2: they're not gouging, they're not robber barons that if you 1030 00:48:58,840 --> 00:49:00,360 Speaker 2: get supply it will solve the problem. 1031 00:49:01,440 --> 00:49:01,640 Speaker 18: Yeah. 1032 00:49:01,680 --> 00:49:03,920 Speaker 19: Look, I mean he's going to look into that now. 1033 00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:06,560 Speaker 19: There's some work being done now, I think by the 1034 00:49:06,560 --> 00:49:08,319 Speaker 19: Commerce Commission as well as the work that he wants 1035 00:49:08,320 --> 00:49:09,680 Speaker 19: to do to make sure we've got the settings right. 1036 00:49:10,120 --> 00:49:12,200 Speaker 19: But I agree with him, but it is definitely a 1037 00:49:12,239 --> 00:49:14,960 Speaker 19: supply problem. I mean, when you kill gas and we 1038 00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:17,520 Speaker 19: live in a country that is in a record dry year, 1039 00:49:18,040 --> 00:49:19,759 Speaker 19: you've got to have gas for decades. I mean that 1040 00:49:19,920 --> 00:49:23,560 Speaker 19: is reality. It's a transitionary fuel source for us. Until 1041 00:49:23,640 --> 00:49:25,680 Speaker 19: we double the amount of renewables, that'd be great. 1042 00:49:25,760 --> 00:49:27,640 Speaker 16: We've got to do that, and we also have to 1043 00:49:27,680 --> 00:49:28,080 Speaker 16: have gas. 1044 00:49:28,160 --> 00:49:31,080 Speaker 19: So it's really just about opening up all the taps 1045 00:49:31,080 --> 00:49:33,279 Speaker 19: as much as possible, throw the kitchen sink at it, 1046 00:49:33,600 --> 00:49:38,040 Speaker 19: and do everything we can to get abundant, affordable energy 1047 00:49:38,080 --> 00:49:39,600 Speaker 19: in place in New Zealand. I mean, there's no reason 1048 00:49:39,600 --> 00:49:41,960 Speaker 19: why we shouldn't, and we have plenty of natural resources 1049 00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:42,520 Speaker 19: in this country. 1050 00:49:42,600 --> 00:49:44,560 Speaker 2: Are you active enough as a shareholder with the Gin 1051 00:49:44,640 --> 00:49:45,160 Speaker 2: Taylors or not? 1052 00:49:46,520 --> 00:49:48,239 Speaker 19: Yeah, I think we are, and I think you also 1053 00:49:48,280 --> 00:49:50,680 Speaker 19: an im on their level of profitability. But they also 1054 00:49:50,760 --> 00:49:53,000 Speaker 19: need confidence to invest because we want them and I 1055 00:49:53,080 --> 00:49:56,840 Speaker 19: know they will huge amounts of capital on actually doubling 1056 00:49:56,880 --> 00:49:59,880 Speaker 19: that renewable electricity in GS, thermal and wind and solar 1057 00:50:00,239 --> 00:50:00,600 Speaker 19: and all. 1058 00:50:00,520 --> 00:50:01,520 Speaker 16: The stuff that needs to happen. 1059 00:50:01,640 --> 00:50:05,200 Speaker 19: So, as I said, it is about making sure that 1060 00:50:05,239 --> 00:50:07,480 Speaker 19: we're giving people confidence, and that's what the announcement was 1061 00:50:07,480 --> 00:50:10,360 Speaker 19: about yesterday, was to say to many of those international 1062 00:50:10,440 --> 00:50:13,960 Speaker 19: investors who want to do the offshore engineering solution for 1063 00:50:14,200 --> 00:50:17,480 Speaker 19: LNG importation, who want to do exploration for gas, who 1064 00:50:17,520 --> 00:50:19,520 Speaker 19: actually want to know that I can go a huge 1065 00:50:19,560 --> 00:50:21,960 Speaker 19: number of the projects that Chris Bishop's looking at on 1066 00:50:22,000 --> 00:50:23,520 Speaker 19: the fast track approvals that people who want to do 1067 00:50:23,600 --> 00:50:27,880 Speaker 19: renewable projects. But actually the consenting times insane. It's absolutely insane. 1068 00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:31,399 Speaker 19: So let's just change the rules, extend the consents, all 1069 00:50:31,440 --> 00:50:32,200 Speaker 19: that good stuff on. 1070 00:50:32,320 --> 00:50:35,440 Speaker 2: The fasttrike, wind you back down on the ministerial signer. 1071 00:50:36,840 --> 00:50:38,439 Speaker 19: Well, I think it's just sort of trying to find 1072 00:50:38,480 --> 00:50:41,520 Speaker 19: the balance to sort of say. That makes it certainly 1073 00:50:41,520 --> 00:50:44,239 Speaker 19: a lot less legally complex, but it won't slow it 1074 00:50:44,360 --> 00:50:46,919 Speaker 19: down because there was always going to a panel before 1075 00:50:46,920 --> 00:50:48,880 Speaker 19: it would come to a minister anyway. And now that 1076 00:50:49,000 --> 00:50:52,440 Speaker 19: panel actually does the reviewer makes the decisions. And I 1077 00:50:52,520 --> 00:50:54,719 Speaker 19: think we've sort of got the balance right between the 1078 00:50:54,800 --> 00:50:56,520 Speaker 19: one stop shop nature of it, where you deal with 1079 00:50:56,600 --> 00:50:59,920 Speaker 19: all the legislation and you consent not just resource management, 1080 00:51:00,000 --> 00:51:02,040 Speaker 19: you know, if it's got a wildlife impact or something 1081 00:51:02,080 --> 00:51:04,640 Speaker 19: else that's dealt with, and it gives the public some 1082 00:51:04,680 --> 00:51:07,040 Speaker 19: confidence the process is fair and we actually get the 1083 00:51:07,040 --> 00:51:07,600 Speaker 19: projects built. 1084 00:51:07,600 --> 00:51:08,359 Speaker 2: Would you check it out? 1085 00:51:08,560 --> 00:51:11,319 Speaker 19: But no, not at Allways, we always said we'd take 1086 00:51:11,360 --> 00:51:13,560 Speaker 19: some sensible changes, so that that change, I think is 1087 00:51:13,600 --> 00:51:16,040 Speaker 19: a sensible change where it actually, you know, we ever 1088 00:51:16,239 --> 00:51:18,160 Speaker 19: get confidence in the process that it's going to be 1089 00:51:18,200 --> 00:51:22,320 Speaker 19: fair and straight, it'll be quick, and the panels have 1090 00:51:22,400 --> 00:51:23,760 Speaker 19: to prioritize the economic considered. 1091 00:51:24,239 --> 00:51:26,359 Speaker 2: For people who were moaning yesterday were the same people 1092 00:51:26,480 --> 00:51:28,680 Speaker 2: moaning previously. You're never going to make them happy. Gary 1093 00:51:28,760 --> 00:51:30,719 Speaker 2: Taylor of the Environmental see that you don't like it. 1094 00:51:30,800 --> 00:51:32,560 Speaker 2: I mean, you build a bridge, he hates you. Squash 1095 00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:34,440 Speaker 2: a frog, he hates you. That's that's who they are. 1096 00:51:34,600 --> 00:51:36,239 Speaker 2: So whether the minister takes it off for a panel 1097 00:51:36,280 --> 00:51:37,439 Speaker 2: to make any difference. 1098 00:51:38,160 --> 00:51:40,359 Speaker 19: Well, I mean, the key thing is we've just turned 1099 00:51:40,400 --> 00:51:43,279 Speaker 19: this place into obstructive obstruction economy. So we've got to 1100 00:51:43,360 --> 00:51:45,680 Speaker 19: get things moving and it will be a game changer. 1101 00:51:45,719 --> 00:51:48,080 Speaker 19: And I appreciate there's lots of people protests the places 1102 00:51:48,120 --> 00:51:50,080 Speaker 19: I go to, and it's all very interesting, but we 1103 00:51:50,160 --> 00:51:51,840 Speaker 19: are down well going to get things built. And so 1104 00:51:52,440 --> 00:51:54,560 Speaker 19: we've got the balance right here. And yes we've made 1105 00:51:54,560 --> 00:51:57,960 Speaker 19: a change around panel versus ministerial decision making, but you know, 1106 00:51:58,000 --> 00:52:00,279 Speaker 19: at the end of the day, it's just that the 1107 00:52:00,360 --> 00:52:02,240 Speaker 19: system getting moving for goodness sake. 1108 00:52:02,239 --> 00:52:04,920 Speaker 2: Okay, nurses. I asked Chris Bishop. He didn't know, but 1109 00:52:05,560 --> 00:52:09,080 Speaker 2: I watched this job fair over the weekend. Here hundreds 1110 00:52:09,080 --> 00:52:12,960 Speaker 2: and hundreds and hundreds of unemployed nurses turn up. They're immigrants. 1111 00:52:13,640 --> 00:52:15,520 Speaker 2: They arrive in the country with a visa because we're 1112 00:52:15,520 --> 00:52:17,759 Speaker 2: desperately short of nurses. They can't get a job because 1113 00:52:17,800 --> 00:52:20,960 Speaker 2: no one's employing nurses. How is there such a chronic 1114 00:52:21,120 --> 00:52:23,800 Speaker 2: mismatch between the visas we're handing out and the jobs 1115 00:52:23,800 --> 00:52:24,560 Speaker 2: we're not giving. 1116 00:52:25,880 --> 00:52:28,680 Speaker 19: Yeah, So on nurses for back up a little bit, 1117 00:52:28,680 --> 00:52:30,600 Speaker 19: because it has changed from sort of how it was 1118 00:52:30,640 --> 00:52:32,720 Speaker 19: in the last few years. There's actually been a massive 1119 00:52:32,760 --> 00:52:35,319 Speaker 19: improvement and nurse recruitment. We've got over I think it's 1120 00:52:35,400 --> 00:52:37,960 Speaker 19: twenty nine thousand nurses in the system now. It makes 1121 00:52:38,000 --> 00:52:40,440 Speaker 19: for a five thousand nurses from it we had last year, 1122 00:52:40,560 --> 00:52:43,840 Speaker 19: so we've actually been able to recruit a lot of nurses. 1123 00:52:43,880 --> 00:52:45,799 Speaker 19: We've also had less attrition and we've had a lot 1124 00:52:45,880 --> 00:52:48,880 Speaker 19: less vacancies. All the vacancies have been dropping. So the 1125 00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:52,279 Speaker 19: international nurses that came in under the previous government's open 1126 00:52:52,400 --> 00:52:56,040 Speaker 19: greenlist for general nurses, that basically that the other folk 1127 00:52:56,120 --> 00:52:57,920 Speaker 19: that you're talking about, there's still got to be a 1128 00:52:58,040 --> 00:52:59,680 Speaker 19: role for then we've got to find a role for them, 1129 00:52:59,680 --> 00:53:02,279 Speaker 19: because we've still short and specialist areas and regional New 1130 00:53:02,360 --> 00:53:05,520 Speaker 19: Zealand in different places. But we also have got a 1131 00:53:05,600 --> 00:53:08,319 Speaker 19: huge emphasis and a good quantity coming through of home 1132 00:53:08,360 --> 00:53:10,120 Speaker 19: grid nurses. That has to be our priority in this 1133 00:53:10,200 --> 00:53:13,640 Speaker 19: case as well. So we still need specialist areas, general 1134 00:53:13,680 --> 00:53:16,439 Speaker 19: nurses and specialist areas which we hope to be able 1135 00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:20,680 Speaker 19: to deliver, but we also need some very specialist nurses 1136 00:53:20,719 --> 00:53:22,600 Speaker 19: in general, which is why they still stay on our 1137 00:53:22,640 --> 00:53:24,640 Speaker 19: green list in that way. But the problem that the 1138 00:53:24,920 --> 00:53:27,759 Speaker 19: you know when we opened it in green list the 1139 00:53:27,800 --> 00:53:30,399 Speaker 19: previous administration, we brought in a whole lot of general nurses. Well, 1140 00:53:30,440 --> 00:53:33,360 Speaker 19: actually we've done a very good job of recruitment, particularly 1141 00:53:33,360 --> 00:53:34,280 Speaker 19: in the last nine months. 1142 00:53:34,120 --> 00:53:37,000 Speaker 2: Or twelve months quickly on the Pacific where you're heading today. 1143 00:53:37,560 --> 00:53:40,840 Speaker 2: The alban Eazy idea to run the specific policing initiative. 1144 00:53:41,160 --> 00:53:43,000 Speaker 2: Are we on board with it, do we like it? 1145 00:53:43,200 --> 00:53:44,800 Speaker 2: And is it to quill China? 1146 00:53:46,040 --> 00:53:48,359 Speaker 19: Well, look, it's very supportive, you know, well I'm very 1147 00:53:48,360 --> 00:53:50,480 Speaker 19: supportive of it. We'll obviously talk more about it in 1148 00:53:50,560 --> 00:53:52,400 Speaker 19: the week, but you know, we have a theories of 1149 00:53:52,480 --> 00:53:55,759 Speaker 19: policing programs both Australia and New Zealand, often jointly, often 1150 00:53:55,920 --> 00:53:59,800 Speaker 19: separately with individual Pacific countries for many years. We actually 1151 00:53:59,840 --> 00:54:02,560 Speaker 19: think it's important that the Pacific country chiefs of police 1152 00:54:02,640 --> 00:54:06,200 Speaker 19: sort of collectively can build their police and capability. You're 1153 00:54:06,280 --> 00:54:08,040 Speaker 19: seeing it now, you know, you saw it when I went, 1154 00:54:08,080 --> 00:54:10,000 Speaker 19: when I went to Fiji. You know, a year's worth 1155 00:54:10,000 --> 00:54:13,360 Speaker 19: of mesmphetamine stored in the ocean, floating in the ocean 1156 00:54:13,480 --> 00:54:15,799 Speaker 19: off the coast of Fiji going into Australia. A whole 1157 00:54:15,880 --> 00:54:19,200 Speaker 19: year supply for Australian drug trade. We've got a big 1158 00:54:19,239 --> 00:54:23,279 Speaker 19: problem with transnational crime, drugs, narcotics and US. We want 1159 00:54:23,280 --> 00:54:25,320 Speaker 19: to work with like minded countries in the Pacific on 1160 00:54:25,640 --> 00:54:26,960 Speaker 19: issues of policing and security. 1161 00:54:27,120 --> 00:54:29,160 Speaker 2: All right, go, well, appreciate it very much. Christopher Lux 1162 00:54:29,239 --> 00:54:31,759 Speaker 2: and Prime Minister off to the Pacific Island Forum before 1163 00:54:31,760 --> 00:54:34,000 Speaker 2: he comes back on Sunday. Then Flix back up to Malaysia, 1164 00:54:34,040 --> 00:54:35,279 Speaker 2: which means I don't think he's going to be with 1165 00:54:35,360 --> 00:54:36,680 Speaker 2: us next week. Fourteen to two. 1166 00:54:38,160 --> 00:54:42,640 Speaker 1: The Mic Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered 1167 00:54:42,680 --> 00:54:43,399 Speaker 1: by News Talks. 1168 00:54:43,440 --> 00:54:46,520 Speaker 2: It be Morning Mike. I protested against the Fast Track 1169 00:54:46,560 --> 00:54:48,759 Speaker 2: because of the ministerial power. I'm happy they've changed it. 1170 00:54:48,800 --> 00:54:51,200 Speaker 2: The goat satisfied customer, Mike. This country needs to get 1171 00:54:51,239 --> 00:54:52,839 Speaker 2: out of its head that we must change the world 1172 00:54:52,840 --> 00:54:54,880 Speaker 2: when it comes to being green, crippling our economy to 1173 00:54:54,920 --> 00:54:57,480 Speaker 2: make ourselves feel good. It's not a reasonable point, Mike. 1174 00:54:57,560 --> 00:55:00,480 Speaker 2: Why would oil and gas it'spend billion on a twitter 1175 00:55:00,560 --> 00:55:03,480 Speaker 2: year transition solution which could all fall apart whether the 1176 00:55:03,560 --> 00:55:06,400 Speaker 2: new Labour Green's government is elected. I suspect they wouldn't 1177 00:55:06,400 --> 00:55:08,800 Speaker 2: shawan them while they have previously. And you've got to 1178 00:55:08,840 --> 00:55:10,520 Speaker 2: look at the style of labor government you're having. And 1179 00:55:10,600 --> 00:55:12,840 Speaker 2: this is why the Prome mister reached out yesterday for 1180 00:55:12,920 --> 00:55:15,239 Speaker 2: some cross party support, not that he'll get it. What 1181 00:55:15,360 --> 00:55:17,880 Speaker 2: we have in this country, unfortunately, is an extreme version 1182 00:55:17,920 --> 00:55:20,320 Speaker 2: of labor. If you look at the Labour Party in Australia, 1183 00:55:20,680 --> 00:55:22,759 Speaker 2: they're perfectly happy with gas because they understand, in fact, 1184 00:55:22,760 --> 00:55:25,120 Speaker 2: not only they're happy with gas or expanding gas exploration, 1185 00:55:25,160 --> 00:55:28,839 Speaker 2: because they understand that it's a tranditory situation that we're 1186 00:55:28,880 --> 00:55:30,719 Speaker 2: in and you need it. You might not like it, 1187 00:55:30,840 --> 00:55:32,200 Speaker 2: but you need it, and if you don't have it, 1188 00:55:32,239 --> 00:55:34,080 Speaker 2: then all of a sudden you're importing coal left, right 1189 00:55:34,160 --> 00:55:36,480 Speaker 2: and center or an Australia's case, digging up coal. So 1190 00:55:36,600 --> 00:55:39,160 Speaker 2: it's the version of the labor party you currently have 1191 00:55:39,320 --> 00:55:42,200 Speaker 2: that's potentially the problem. Rental news. If you're a rent or, 1192 00:55:42,200 --> 00:55:44,360 Speaker 2: I have good news. If you're a landlord, I have 1193 00:55:44,480 --> 00:55:47,840 Speaker 2: bad news. Renterprice Index out this morning. It's down for 1194 00:55:47,960 --> 00:55:49,520 Speaker 2: the second month in a row. Has that been a 1195 00:55:49,560 --> 00:55:52,759 Speaker 2: while since that happened? You bet? It is six forty 1196 00:55:52,800 --> 00:55:55,840 Speaker 2: five down to six forty on average, first time in 1197 00:55:55,920 --> 00:55:58,359 Speaker 2: two years, back to back falls. Auckland's down one point 1198 00:55:58,400 --> 00:56:00,880 Speaker 2: four percent, which on a month a lot three percent 1199 00:56:00,960 --> 00:56:04,320 Speaker 2: in hawks By four point eight in Taranaki and the 1200 00:56:04,400 --> 00:56:06,880 Speaker 2: reverse Southland through the roof six point seven. 1201 00:56:06,680 --> 00:56:07,080 Speaker 6: For a month. 1202 00:56:07,320 --> 00:56:09,120 Speaker 2: These will be they're a bit flaky. Month on a month, 1203 00:56:09,160 --> 00:56:11,320 Speaker 2: you're probably better off doing quarter on quarter. But nevertheless 1204 00:56:11,360 --> 00:56:14,200 Speaker 2: Southland six point seven percent up, Canterbury three point six 1205 00:56:14,239 --> 00:56:16,279 Speaker 2: and O Tigo's six point nine up. So it's a 1206 00:56:16,440 --> 00:56:20,360 Speaker 2: tale of two islands, as they say. Now, Liam Lawson, 1207 00:56:20,480 --> 00:56:24,359 Speaker 2: do I have news on him for you? Shortly nine 1208 00:56:24,400 --> 00:56:24,759 Speaker 2: to one. 1209 00:56:25,440 --> 00:56:28,200 Speaker 6: My Costle breakfast with Bailey's. 1210 00:56:29,600 --> 00:56:31,520 Speaker 2: How can you zee look at sending police to Fiji 1211 00:56:31,680 --> 00:56:33,120 Speaker 2: when we don't even seem to have enough our own. 1212 00:56:33,160 --> 00:56:35,560 Speaker 2: Don't get that mixed up. So this is the Albanezy 1213 00:56:35,600 --> 00:56:37,319 Speaker 2: idea told you about a couple of days ago. It's 1214 00:56:37,320 --> 00:56:39,239 Speaker 2: been in the it's been in the works for a while. 1215 00:56:39,600 --> 00:56:43,160 Speaker 2: They'll be based in Brisbane, specialist facility in Brisbane. The 1216 00:56:43,239 --> 00:56:46,279 Speaker 2: collectively we'll all you know, chunk in and sort of 1217 00:56:46,440 --> 00:56:49,080 Speaker 2: grow our own police force. The point being the Chinese 1218 00:56:49,120 --> 00:56:52,400 Speaker 2: assigning deal security deals with various places placed like the Solomons, 1219 00:56:52,920 --> 00:56:55,160 Speaker 2: and we want to cut them out. Not that we 1220 00:56:55,239 --> 00:56:57,600 Speaker 2: say it that overtly, of course, but essentially what's about. 1221 00:56:57,920 --> 00:57:00,719 Speaker 2: And so it's got the support. It'll be ticked off 1222 00:57:00,719 --> 00:57:03,080 Speaker 2: at the Leader's deal in the next couple of days 1223 00:57:03,840 --> 00:57:05,960 Speaker 2: and so it's completely separate. 1224 00:57:06,000 --> 00:57:08,560 Speaker 15: So it's been lest people are resting people for vaping 1225 00:57:08,600 --> 00:57:09,399 Speaker 15: in their cars, it's. 1226 00:57:09,280 --> 00:57:11,319 Speaker 2: All wow, I don't think so they're all over that now. 1227 00:57:11,480 --> 00:57:13,400 Speaker 2: Liam Lawson, I cannot tell you how much ink is 1228 00:57:13,440 --> 00:57:15,920 Speaker 2: being expressed by a various journalists around the world this 1229 00:57:16,040 --> 00:57:18,840 Speaker 2: morning on the very real prospect it appears increasingly So 1230 00:57:18,960 --> 00:57:21,200 Speaker 2: he's going to be at Monza this weekend racing for Williams. 1231 00:57:21,640 --> 00:57:23,680 Speaker 2: So I think the Herald tried to rule it out yesterday. 1232 00:57:23,720 --> 00:57:25,400 Speaker 2: I don't know where they got the information from, but 1233 00:57:25,440 --> 00:57:28,080 Speaker 2: it seems to be changing literally by the hour. So 1234 00:57:28,320 --> 00:57:31,919 Speaker 2: from Speed Cafe, Lawson linked to shock if one return 1235 00:57:32,000 --> 00:57:36,240 Speaker 2: at Mons and Mons's this weekend Italy, multiple sources, James 1236 00:57:36,320 --> 00:57:39,160 Speaker 2: vald has talked to Christian Horner. Christian Horner says this, 1237 00:57:39,720 --> 00:57:43,160 Speaker 2: it depends on which terms and if we needed him back, 1238 00:57:43,840 --> 00:57:45,840 Speaker 2: would we get him back now? Obviously that can work 1239 00:57:45,840 --> 00:57:48,240 Speaker 2: their way around that. That's not a problem. Certainly if 1240 00:57:48,240 --> 00:57:51,080 Speaker 2: they needed a driver next weekend, we'd be open to that. 1241 00:57:51,200 --> 00:57:55,400 Speaker 2: So that's Christian Horner logan sergeant replacement plan becomes clear 1242 00:57:55,440 --> 00:57:57,480 Speaker 2: as William's hold talks with F one start. This is 1243 00:57:57,520 --> 00:57:59,720 Speaker 2: the Express in Britain covering at this morning. Vows had 1244 00:57:59,760 --> 00:58:02,800 Speaker 2: talked with Horner over the possibility of bringing Liam Lawson 1245 00:58:02,880 --> 00:58:05,480 Speaker 2: into the team on a nine race loan. The only 1246 00:58:05,640 --> 00:58:09,640 Speaker 2: issue they would have and this is interesting, this obstacle, 1247 00:58:09,760 --> 00:58:13,240 Speaker 2: This is from last Word on sports dot com Liam Lawson. 1248 00:58:13,320 --> 00:58:17,000 Speaker 2: This obstacle could prevent a William's move, the obstacle being Perez, 1249 00:58:17,440 --> 00:58:20,480 Speaker 2: and they cite Perez is still under evaluation at RedBull. 1250 00:58:20,560 --> 00:58:23,360 Speaker 2: Now what's the story there? The story there is and 1251 00:58:23,480 --> 00:58:27,960 Speaker 2: it's an ongoing rumor that come Mexico. Post Mexico, they're 1252 00:58:27,960 --> 00:58:30,520 Speaker 2: gonna let Perees go. They're holding out to Mexico for 1253 00:58:30,640 --> 00:58:33,560 Speaker 2: obvious reasons. Post Mexico, they let him go. If they 1254 00:58:33,640 --> 00:58:35,960 Speaker 2: let him go, they suddenly need Lawsom back. Hence they 1255 00:58:36,000 --> 00:58:38,200 Speaker 2: don't let him go. On a nice nine race loan, 1256 00:58:39,160 --> 00:58:42,760 Speaker 2: red Bull gives green light Lawson on his way to Williams. 1257 00:58:43,040 --> 00:58:46,200 Speaker 2: This is this morning. GP Blog appears to be getting 1258 00:58:46,240 --> 00:58:49,880 Speaker 2: a second chance in Formula one. All signs are green. 1259 00:58:50,880 --> 00:58:53,120 Speaker 2: Williams would like to have a new driver in Sergeant's 1260 00:58:53,160 --> 00:58:55,000 Speaker 2: car as early as Monster, which of course is this 1261 00:58:55,120 --> 00:58:58,080 Speaker 2: weekend from Motorsport this Morning. The other name in the 1262 00:58:58,120 --> 00:59:02,560 Speaker 2: mixus Mcschumacher. They and along with Lawson have appeared as 1263 00:59:02,600 --> 00:59:04,840 Speaker 2: the two major contenders. If it's good and this is 1264 00:59:04,880 --> 00:59:06,680 Speaker 2: the best one of all. This is from Helmet Marco 1265 00:59:06,840 --> 00:59:10,920 Speaker 2: no less when asked by Sky's Sport Overnight whether Liam 1266 00:59:10,960 --> 00:59:13,400 Speaker 2: Lawson would get permission to drive for Williams this season. 1267 00:59:13,560 --> 00:59:16,680 Speaker 2: If it's good for a young driver and he can 1268 00:59:16,800 --> 00:59:20,280 Speaker 2: gain some race experience, we wouldn't stand in his way, 1269 00:59:20,960 --> 00:59:24,960 Speaker 2: so Horner says it's okay. Marco says it's okay, which 1270 00:59:25,000 --> 00:59:27,160 Speaker 2: is about the first time Marco and Horner rebever agreed 1271 00:59:27,200 --> 00:59:29,120 Speaker 2: on anything. Certainly this year, as far as I can 1272 00:59:29,200 --> 00:59:32,600 Speaker 2: work out, it is entirely possible that Liam Lawson will 1273 00:59:32,600 --> 00:59:36,200 Speaker 2: be in a Williams this coming weekend in Italy, in Monza, 1274 00:59:36,720 --> 00:59:39,240 Speaker 2: and that would be worth watching. News is next, then 1275 00:59:39,280 --> 00:59:42,360 Speaker 2: Ellison Moye, your. 1276 00:59:42,360 --> 00:59:46,840 Speaker 1: Trusted source for news and views, the Mike Hosking Breakfast 1277 00:59:47,160 --> 00:59:51,320 Speaker 1: with Bailey's Real Estate, your local experts across residential, commercial 1278 00:59:51,440 --> 00:59:53,040 Speaker 1: and rural news togs edb. 1279 00:59:56,000 --> 00:59:59,880 Speaker 2: To come back.

She went solo. Then it really took off, 1283 01:00:06,760 --> 01:00:08,880 Speaker 2: and here we are, twenty three million albums later, on 1284 01:00:08,920 --> 01:00:10,600 Speaker 2: a long gap between drinks with a new piece of 1285 01:00:10,680 --> 01:00:13,440 Speaker 2: works and the tour which includes some stops.

Does 1290 01:00:23,160 --> 01:00:26,080 Speaker 2: the name Neil Finn mean anything to you? Crowded House 1291 01:00:26,120 --> 01:00:26,720 Speaker 2: Split ends. 1292 01:00:28,600 --> 01:00:30,880 Speaker 12: Yes, certainly, it certainly is a name. I don't know him, 1293 01:00:30,920 --> 01:00:32,200 Speaker 12: but absolutely his name. 1294 01:00:32,280 --> 01:00:34,960 Speaker 2: Yes, he was in the Radio two piano room a 1295 01:00:34,960 --> 01:00:36,600 Speaker 2: couple of months ago when we talked to him on 1296 01:00:36,680 --> 01:00:38,640 Speaker 2: the program and he said he was nervous as all 1297 01:00:38,720 --> 01:00:41,400 Speaker 2: heck because it's done live. Was yours live? 1298 01:00:43,120 --> 01:00:43,960 Speaker 12: No, it wasn't live. 1299 01:00:44,040 --> 01:00:46,680 Speaker 20: It was a pre record, you know, So it's you know, 1300 01:00:46,840 --> 01:00:49,560 Speaker 20: it's a live recording in terms of the fact that 1301 01:00:49,760 --> 01:00:52,120 Speaker 20: it's done there with the orchestra and there's nothing there's 1302 01:00:52,120 --> 01:00:54,800 Speaker 20: no jiggery pocria gas on, there's no editing, so it's 1303 01:00:54,840 --> 01:00:55,680 Speaker 20: a live take, but it. 1304 01:00:55,720 --> 01:00:56,400 Speaker 12: Was a pre record. 1305 01:00:56,640 --> 01:00:58,360 Speaker 2: Are you happy with it? It was beautiful? 1306 01:00:59,400 --> 01:01:01,200 Speaker 12: Yeah, know, I really enjoyed it. 1307 01:01:01,280 --> 01:01:03,280 Speaker 20: And I think the very fact that it doesn't go 1308 01:01:03,400 --> 01:01:05,880 Speaker 20: out live at that minute it kind of really helps 1309 01:01:05,960 --> 01:01:08,240 Speaker 20: me because otherwise, when it's live live, I just spend 1310 01:01:08,240 --> 01:01:10,320 Speaker 20: the whole time thinking I'm going to forget the words, 1311 01:01:10,360 --> 01:01:12,000 Speaker 20: going to forget the words, you know, and it just 1312 01:01:12,080 --> 01:01:14,800 Speaker 20: really it's really stressful. So knowing the fact that if 1313 01:01:14,840 --> 01:01:16,800 Speaker 20: you do mess up, you can go again is good. 1314 01:01:16,840 --> 01:01:19,240 Speaker 20: And as it was, we didn't mess up, so you know, 1315 01:01:19,320 --> 01:01:19,920 Speaker 20: I was laughing. 1316 01:01:20,760 --> 01:01:23,000 Speaker 2: Talk to me about your voice, it's got some magnificence. 1317 01:01:23,000 --> 01:01:24,960 Speaker 2: I mean, the whole thing here is there's been a 1318 01:01:25,080 --> 01:01:27,880 Speaker 2: gap between you know, records and tours and stuff like that. 1319 01:01:28,040 --> 01:01:29,800 Speaker 2: But so it's been a while since I listened to you. 1320 01:01:30,320 --> 01:01:33,479 Speaker 2: There's something's happened to your voice. There's a gravitas, a weight. 1321 01:01:34,160 --> 01:01:35,640 Speaker 2: I don't know an age to it. 1322 01:01:37,640 --> 01:01:38,760 Speaker 12: Yeah, I think so there. 1323 01:01:39,120 --> 01:01:40,640 Speaker 20: I just think there's a kind of a great and 1324 01:01:40,920 --> 01:01:42,880 Speaker 20: you know, there's a greater understanding of it and a 1325 01:01:42,920 --> 01:01:46,120 Speaker 20: greater understanding of language and how you want to use 1326 01:01:46,160 --> 01:01:47,640 Speaker 20: it as an expressive instrument, you know. 1327 01:01:47,720 --> 01:01:51,120 Speaker 12: And that you know it's less of a physical change 1328 01:01:51,200 --> 01:01:51,680 Speaker 12: and more of. 1329 01:01:51,760 --> 01:01:55,480 Speaker 20: An emotional change, just a greater understanding. 1330 01:01:55,960 --> 01:01:56,080 Speaker 8: You know. 1331 01:01:56,120 --> 01:01:58,240 Speaker 20: It's like when you're young, you think it's all about 1332 01:01:58,800 --> 01:02:02,200 Speaker 20: you think it's all about the kind of showboating or 1333 01:02:02,280 --> 01:02:04,960 Speaker 20: the volume, and as you get older, you understand there's 1334 01:02:05,000 --> 01:02:08,400 Speaker 20: so much more nuanced to emotion than that. Sometimes it 1335 01:02:08,480 --> 01:02:10,680 Speaker 20: can be, you know, sometimes it can be a really 1336 01:02:10,760 --> 01:02:15,680 Speaker 20: dead internal feeling. And it's about wanting to use that 1337 01:02:15,800 --> 01:02:18,560 Speaker 20: instrument to all the different degrees and not just having 1338 01:02:18,600 --> 01:02:19,640 Speaker 20: it on full on all the time. 1339 01:02:20,200 --> 01:02:22,920 Speaker 2: So take me through this process. A gap between drinks 1340 01:02:23,000 --> 01:02:25,120 Speaker 2: as they say, so we have some new music, will 1341 01:02:25,120 --> 01:02:27,680 Speaker 2: have a you tour. How does that come about and 1342 01:02:28,160 --> 01:02:30,760 Speaker 2: how emotionally do you deal with it? 1343 01:02:34,000 --> 01:02:36,360 Speaker 12: Well, I'm someone that really responds to the day. 1344 01:02:36,400 --> 01:02:40,040 Speaker 20: I mean, I hyper focused, but my hyper focus can 1345 01:02:40,120 --> 01:02:41,080 Speaker 20: go all over the place. 1346 01:02:41,160 --> 01:02:41,320 Speaker 9: You know. 1347 01:02:42,760 --> 01:02:46,440 Speaker 20: Right before I started a recording this album, for example, 1348 01:02:46,760 --> 01:02:49,680 Speaker 20: I was at university, so I'd been at university for 1349 01:02:49,800 --> 01:02:52,880 Speaker 20: four years before that. As it will kind of happen 1350 01:02:52,880 --> 01:02:55,040 Speaker 20: with lockdown, everything seemed like a good time to actually 1351 01:02:55,120 --> 01:02:57,640 Speaker 20: start my education, seeing as I left school at sixteen, 1352 01:02:58,120 --> 01:03:00,520 Speaker 20: or else it might be in DIY, I might be 1353 01:03:00,680 --> 01:03:03,960 Speaker 20: like really into building stuff. So I sort of like 1354 01:03:04,120 --> 01:03:07,720 Speaker 20: decide what I'm going to do kind of a month 1355 01:03:07,800 --> 01:03:09,680 Speaker 20: by month and then and then go with it. And 1356 01:03:11,280 --> 01:03:13,600 Speaker 20: it felt high time I wanted to re engage with music. 1357 01:03:13,640 --> 01:03:15,440 Speaker 20: I mean, I'm fully aware of my age and the 1358 01:03:15,520 --> 01:03:17,160 Speaker 20: fact that that can stop at any time, you know, 1359 01:03:17,520 --> 01:03:19,720 Speaker 20: any time. I might wake up one day and find 1360 01:03:19,760 --> 01:03:23,440 Speaker 20: out I can't sing anymore, in which case, without any regret, 1361 01:03:23,800 --> 01:03:25,400 Speaker 20: I'll just turn my focus somewhere else. 1362 01:03:25,480 --> 01:03:29,800 Speaker 12: But whilst I'm on it, I want to do it. Also, 1363 01:03:29,840 --> 01:03:30,600 Speaker 12: when I was in the middle of. 1364 01:03:30,600 --> 01:03:32,400 Speaker 20: College, I went off to do it like a guest 1365 01:03:32,440 --> 01:03:34,640 Speaker 20: slot with the Tears for Fears thing, and I hadn't 1366 01:03:34,720 --> 01:03:36,480 Speaker 20: sung for a couple of years and it just really 1367 01:03:36,680 --> 01:03:40,200 Speaker 20: liked it. Singing live is my main focus, and so 1368 01:03:40,360 --> 01:03:43,560 Speaker 20: everything I do in terms of recording is to direct 1369 01:03:43,640 --> 01:03:44,560 Speaker 20: it towards the stage. 1370 01:03:45,360 --> 01:03:47,320 Speaker 2: I've got the impression, correct me if I'm wrong over 1371 01:03:47,360 --> 01:03:50,800 Speaker 2: the years having followed you that because you're so talented 1372 01:03:50,840 --> 01:03:54,200 Speaker 2: at music, it always you enjoyed it, but it probably 1373 01:03:54,320 --> 01:03:56,600 Speaker 2: came at too great a price at times. And if 1374 01:03:56,640 --> 01:03:59,160 Speaker 2: you could have been less successful but still sung, that 1375 01:03:59,240 --> 01:04:01,120 Speaker 2: would have suited you. Bet or is that fear or not? 1376 01:04:02,120 --> 01:04:03,439 Speaker 12: No, I think that's absolutely fair. 1377 01:04:03,480 --> 01:04:03,600 Speaker 9: You know. 1378 01:04:03,960 --> 01:04:05,760 Speaker 12: It's like I'm quite a cheap day. 1379 01:04:05,840 --> 01:04:05,960 Speaker 8: You know. 1380 01:04:06,040 --> 01:04:08,760 Speaker 12: It's like I've never aspired to own lots of. 1381 01:04:08,800 --> 01:04:11,440 Speaker 20: Things, and you know, I you know, I enjoy the 1382 01:04:11,520 --> 01:04:15,480 Speaker 20: fact that I'm comfortable, but that's because I am then 1383 01:04:15,480 --> 01:04:17,520 Speaker 20: in a position to say no. So the idea of 1384 01:04:18,160 --> 01:04:21,280 Speaker 20: doing something just to be famous or to be recognized, 1385 01:04:21,320 --> 01:04:23,960 Speaker 20: that that, to me is kind of like the downside 1386 01:04:24,000 --> 01:04:24,200 Speaker 20: of it. 1387 01:04:24,320 --> 01:04:24,480 Speaker 9: You know. 1388 01:04:24,600 --> 01:04:26,960 Speaker 12: That's that's like you say, that's the price you pay. 1389 01:04:27,000 --> 01:04:30,080 Speaker 20: And that's not to disrespect anybody that supported me, because 1390 01:04:30,080 --> 01:04:35,040 Speaker 20: I'm incredibly grateful for that. But I really do enjoy 1391 01:04:36,320 --> 01:04:38,680 Speaker 20: just being a part of a community, part of a neighborhood. 1392 01:04:38,680 --> 01:04:38,840 Speaker 18: You know. 1393 01:04:39,200 --> 01:04:42,280 Speaker 20: I like living a regular life, and it's and it's 1394 01:04:42,320 --> 01:04:45,360 Speaker 20: always a bit weird when someone sees you as other, 1395 01:04:45,440 --> 01:04:48,160 Speaker 20: which like often people imagine that's what happens to you 1396 01:04:48,200 --> 01:04:49,439 Speaker 20: when you become well known. 1397 01:04:49,960 --> 01:04:51,720 Speaker 2: But that's the ideal, isn't it. Because there are so 1398 01:04:51,800 --> 01:04:53,880 Speaker 2: many people who get famous, love fame, and then when 1399 01:04:53,880 --> 01:04:55,640 Speaker 2: the fame goes, it's they don't know what to do 1400 01:04:55,720 --> 01:04:56,240 Speaker 2: with themselves. 1401 01:04:56,840 --> 01:04:58,040 Speaker 12: Yeah, well I think they struggle. 1402 01:04:58,080 --> 01:05:00,320 Speaker 20: I think you know, you see that with a lot 1403 01:05:00,360 --> 01:05:02,760 Speaker 20: of people that they've had their big hit and they 1404 01:05:02,840 --> 01:05:05,200 Speaker 20: do struggle from that lack of attention. 1405 01:05:05,600 --> 01:05:07,240 Speaker 12: Well I kind of never. 1406 01:05:07,200 --> 01:05:09,800 Speaker 20: Did because it's not like I was the great beauty 1407 01:05:09,960 --> 01:05:14,640 Speaker 20: or someone that always attracted positive comment. You know, there's 1408 01:05:14,640 --> 01:05:16,520 Speaker 20: always been a you know, there's always been quite a 1409 01:05:16,680 --> 01:05:19,480 Speaker 20: task to being a bit of an addible being kind 1410 01:05:19,480 --> 01:05:21,000 Speaker 20: of well known. So it's never the like it was 1411 01:05:21,040 --> 01:05:25,120 Speaker 20: that much pleasure. But I think for those people when 1412 01:05:25,160 --> 01:05:27,680 Speaker 20: they lose that platform, it becomes quite desperate for them. 1413 01:05:27,720 --> 01:05:30,040 Speaker 20: So they're always thinking, you know, it's just I just 1414 01:05:30,120 --> 01:05:31,960 Speaker 20: need the right song I just need the right song 1415 01:05:32,080 --> 01:05:35,120 Speaker 20: for me. It's about I want the right song, but 1416 01:05:35,120 --> 01:05:37,240 Speaker 20: I want the right song to please me. And sometimes 1417 01:05:37,280 --> 01:05:41,400 Speaker 20: that suits a larger audience, and sometimes it doesn't garner 1418 01:05:41,400 --> 01:05:44,480 Speaker 20: any attention at all, and that's kind of an irrelevance 1419 01:05:44,520 --> 01:05:47,360 Speaker 20: to me. It's not what I'm searching after. So I 1420 01:05:47,400 --> 01:05:49,840 Speaker 20: think if you are an artist and without wanting to 1421 01:05:49,960 --> 01:05:52,760 Speaker 20: sound PONCEI, that is what I am. You know that 1422 01:05:52,960 --> 01:05:55,640 Speaker 20: then you carry on working and you can and thinking, 1423 01:05:55,680 --> 01:05:57,960 Speaker 20: you care and write and regardless about whether you've got 1424 01:05:58,000 --> 01:06:01,680 Speaker 20: people watching you or not. So you know, a career 1425 01:06:01,880 --> 01:06:03,680 Speaker 20: is a series of sin waves. 1426 01:06:03,720 --> 01:06:05,360 Speaker 12: You know, you're going to go up, people. 1427 01:06:05,160 --> 01:06:06,720 Speaker 20: Are going to notice, You're going to get a tension, 1428 01:06:06,880 --> 01:06:08,480 Speaker 20: and then you're going to drop out of attention. 1429 01:06:08,880 --> 01:06:11,080 Speaker 12: And that isn't always to do with the quality of 1430 01:06:11,160 --> 01:06:13,360 Speaker 12: your work. You know, that's just about the zeitgeist. 1431 01:06:13,440 --> 01:06:15,680 Speaker 20: And you know, I think that's fair enough because you know, 1432 01:06:15,840 --> 01:06:17,720 Speaker 20: you can't expect to be centered for the whole of 1433 01:06:17,760 --> 01:06:18,160 Speaker 20: your life. 1434 01:06:18,800 --> 01:06:21,200 Speaker 12: But yeah, it's about your reason. 1435 01:06:21,040 --> 01:06:22,680 Speaker 20: Why you're doing and if you're doing it to be 1436 01:06:23,760 --> 01:06:26,080 Speaker 20: if famous, then you're on a hide into nothing because 1437 01:06:26,400 --> 01:06:28,040 Speaker 20: no one cares about anyone for that long. 1438 01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:29,960 Speaker 2: Yes, that's true. Listen, hold on a couple of moments, 1439 01:06:30,160 --> 01:06:32,440 Speaker 2: Elison Moye, whethers I'll give you the dates for the Auckland, 1440 01:06:32,480 --> 01:06:34,760 Speaker 2: Wellington christ It shows next year?

So it's kind of like one 1461 01:07:34,880 --> 01:07:37,200 Speaker 20: of those home alone moments where you scream at yourself 1462 01:07:37,240 --> 01:07:37,640 Speaker 20: in the mirror. 1463 01:07:38,840 --> 01:07:40,960 Speaker 12: You know, you're both a bit like that. But then 1464 01:07:40,960 --> 01:07:41,880 Speaker 12: at the same time. 1465 01:07:41,760 --> 01:07:44,240 Speaker 20: I know I've also got you know, I have carried 1466 01:07:44,280 --> 01:07:47,760 Speaker 20: with me a group of supporters that have gone along 1467 01:07:47,840 --> 01:07:52,520 Speaker 20: that journey, and so you know, for them, I'm really 1468 01:07:52,560 --> 01:07:55,840 Speaker 20: excited to be there for them because you know, I'm 1469 01:07:55,960 --> 01:07:59,080 Speaker 20: very aware. You know, I'm quite mindful about the fact that, yeah, 1470 01:07:59,080 --> 01:08:01,440 Speaker 20: I'm getting older, granny and all these kind of things. 1471 01:08:01,520 --> 01:08:03,720 Speaker 20: You know, touring is not going to be something that 1472 01:08:04,440 --> 01:08:06,880 Speaker 20: has another forty years on top of it. So every 1473 01:08:06,960 --> 01:08:08,560 Speaker 20: time I go on tour, I'm very aware that it 1474 01:08:08,600 --> 01:08:08,960 Speaker 20: could be the. 1475 01:08:08,960 --> 01:08:10,160 Speaker 12: Last time that I do it. 1476 01:08:10,400 --> 01:08:13,880 Speaker 20: So just the thought that I could come out there 1477 01:08:14,040 --> 01:08:17,439 Speaker 20: at least one more time and have a chance to 1478 01:08:18,040 --> 01:08:20,920 Speaker 20: perform is you know, it's obviously an exciting thing to 1479 01:08:21,000 --> 01:08:23,200 Speaker 20: be able to do. And you know, and I love 1480 01:08:23,280 --> 01:08:25,640 Speaker 20: the country. I love I love seeing that difference and 1481 01:08:25,720 --> 01:08:29,400 Speaker 20: the beauty in the air and just watching people running everywhere. 1482 01:08:29,400 --> 01:08:31,080 Speaker 12: I just think is the most fantastic thing. 1483 01:08:31,439 --> 01:08:34,800 Speaker 2: That's brilliant. It's a retrospective the album, it'self some new 1484 01:08:34,960 --> 01:08:37,320 Speaker 2: you got some some reworks and then so so in 1485 01:08:37,479 --> 01:08:41,320 Speaker 2: calling it a retrospective and looking back forty years, what 1486 01:08:41,439 --> 01:08:42,360 Speaker 2: do you make of it all? 1487 01:08:43,520 --> 01:08:46,240 Speaker 20: Well, it's it's it's kind of a funny thing because 1488 01:08:46,520 --> 01:08:49,680 Speaker 20: it's it's not exactly retrospective. 1489 01:08:49,760 --> 01:08:51,840 Speaker 12: It's it's kind of like a view. It's you know, 1490 01:08:51,920 --> 01:08:52,960 Speaker 12: it's like a view. 1491 01:08:52,880 --> 01:08:54,800 Speaker 20: Over the whole thing, which is why there's the point 1492 01:08:54,880 --> 01:08:56,800 Speaker 20: of there being two new songs, because this is not 1493 01:08:57,000 --> 01:08:59,640 Speaker 20: like some kind of brackets, you know, this is the 1494 01:08:59,720 --> 01:09:01,760 Speaker 20: other way that has that was. 1495 01:09:02,080 --> 01:09:04,000 Speaker 12: It's it's this is the trajectory. 1496 01:09:04,080 --> 01:09:07,120 Speaker 20: This is the journey that I am having and continue 1497 01:09:07,160 --> 01:09:09,120 Speaker 20: to have. And like I say, you know that that 1498 01:09:09,479 --> 01:09:12,280 Speaker 20: might only have a very short distance in the future, 1499 01:09:12,360 --> 01:09:14,960 Speaker 20: but it's not something that's been tied off. It's like, 1500 01:09:15,040 --> 01:09:18,280 Speaker 20: I'm a working artist and that's what I'm doing. And 1501 01:09:18,520 --> 01:09:21,240 Speaker 20: there's also the fact that when you have been working 1502 01:09:21,360 --> 01:09:24,240 Speaker 20: for forty years as a solo artist, there's going to 1503 01:09:24,280 --> 01:09:26,479 Speaker 20: be a lot, you know, to be quite schismatic, that 1504 01:09:26,640 --> 01:09:29,439 Speaker 20: kind of the changes in style and sound that happened 1505 01:09:29,479 --> 01:09:31,840 Speaker 20: over the years. And so if you just take that 1506 01:09:32,120 --> 01:09:34,320 Speaker 20: and reproduce it on stage, you can end up with 1507 01:09:34,439 --> 01:09:38,559 Speaker 20: some nightmare karaoke monster you know that just just has 1508 01:09:38,840 --> 01:09:42,280 Speaker 20: that has no identity of its own. And so the 1509 01:09:42,360 --> 01:09:46,400 Speaker 20: whole purpose of choosing these songs, you know, they are 1510 01:09:46,560 --> 01:09:50,040 Speaker 20: key songs, but they're by no means all of the 1511 01:09:50,200 --> 01:09:52,640 Speaker 20: most important songs. For example, my last two albums that 1512 01:09:52,680 --> 01:09:55,400 Speaker 20: I've done, you know, for me were really pretty great, 1513 01:09:55,439 --> 01:09:57,519 Speaker 20: and I didn't need to delve into them. You know 1514 01:09:57,640 --> 01:10:00,600 Speaker 20: that they're recent enough to stand as they are. But 1515 01:10:00,720 --> 01:10:02,640 Speaker 20: the point is to pull in that whole body of 1516 01:10:02,720 --> 01:10:05,040 Speaker 20: work in such a way that you can make it 1517 01:10:05,439 --> 01:10:08,320 Speaker 20: a cohesive set so that when you then take those 1518 01:10:08,439 --> 01:10:12,439 Speaker 20: forty years on tour, you're you're performing a set that 1519 01:10:12,600 --> 01:10:15,800 Speaker 20: sits together, you know, as I spose as opposed to 1520 01:10:15,840 --> 01:10:16,680 Speaker 20: a karaoke nighte. 1521 01:10:17,200 --> 01:10:19,400 Speaker 2: How did the study go, by the way, did you graduate? 1522 01:10:19,560 --> 01:10:20,200 Speaker 2: Did you pass? 1523 01:10:20,920 --> 01:10:21,120 Speaker 12: Yes? 1524 01:10:21,200 --> 01:10:21,400 Speaker 14: I did. 1525 01:10:21,479 --> 01:10:22,040 Speaker 12: I got a first. 1526 01:10:22,720 --> 01:10:25,240 Speaker 2: Fantastic and you're going to do anything with her? Or 1527 01:10:25,240 --> 01:10:27,280 Speaker 2: it was just an intellectual exercise. 1528 01:10:28,000 --> 01:10:29,720 Speaker 11: No, no, what it was it was. 1529 01:10:30,240 --> 01:10:33,240 Speaker 20: I did a degree in fine ite printmaking, and that's 1530 01:10:33,320 --> 01:10:34,360 Speaker 20: kind of it was kind of been a bit of 1531 01:10:34,439 --> 01:10:36,960 Speaker 20: a be in my bonnet because I'd come from generations 1532 01:10:37,000 --> 01:10:39,679 Speaker 20: of lithographic printers and I remember when I left school, 1533 01:10:39,680 --> 01:10:42,840 Speaker 20: because I left school at sixteen without any qualifications, and 1534 01:10:43,560 --> 01:10:45,360 Speaker 20: I remember saying to my dad, who was a Frenchman, 1535 01:10:45,439 --> 01:10:48,920 Speaker 20: so Doug le Giese, he learn that speak English in London, 1536 01:10:48,960 --> 01:10:51,200 Speaker 20: so it's a funny old accent like he's Greek or something, 1537 01:10:51,240 --> 01:10:54,320 Speaker 20: you know, but you know it's a real patriarch. And 1538 01:10:54,400 --> 01:10:56,000 Speaker 20: I said to him, you know, I really wanted to 1539 01:10:56,040 --> 01:10:57,799 Speaker 20: go into the print, and you know, he was horrified 1540 01:10:58,160 --> 01:11:00,960 Speaker 20: not not goose loot shop. 1541 01:11:01,280 --> 01:11:01,439 Speaker 12: You know. 1542 01:11:01,640 --> 01:11:03,600 Speaker 20: So it was like one of those things that I 1543 01:11:03,720 --> 01:11:05,960 Speaker 20: was kind of forbidden to go into. So, you know, 1544 01:11:06,080 --> 01:11:09,479 Speaker 20: I've always been a little bit you know, persistent, and 1545 01:11:09,880 --> 01:11:11,560 Speaker 20: I thought one day I'm going to get around to it. 1546 01:11:11,680 --> 01:11:14,200 Speaker 20: So when Lockdown happened, and I say, I had a 1547 01:11:14,240 --> 01:11:15,680 Speaker 20: bit of a chip on my shoulder because I never 1548 01:11:15,720 --> 01:11:18,320 Speaker 20: did get an education, you know, did any further education, 1549 01:11:18,520 --> 01:11:20,920 Speaker 20: I thought I'd go for it and then kind of 1550 01:11:20,960 --> 01:11:23,400 Speaker 20: hope I focused into it and yes, and so consequently 1551 01:11:24,160 --> 01:11:26,360 Speaker 20: I did the artwork on the album, and I've also 1552 01:11:27,280 --> 01:11:30,680 Speaker 20: done a couple of the lyric videos with images that 1553 01:11:30,720 --> 01:11:34,479 Speaker 20: I've made working with someone who knows, you know, the 1554 01:11:34,560 --> 01:11:38,040 Speaker 20: technology has turned that into a movement film so yeah, 1555 01:11:38,520 --> 01:11:42,479 Speaker 20: I've moved that into my artwork and then when when 1556 01:11:42,760 --> 01:11:44,880 Speaker 20: I finished touring, no doubt then I should be going 1557 01:11:44,920 --> 01:11:45,519 Speaker 20: back into printing. 1558 01:11:45,600 --> 01:11:48,200 Speaker 2: Then fantastic, Well it is my next year.

The growing 1611 01:14:19,000 --> 01:14:21,519 Speaker 2: speculation is that things are going to get so much 1612 01:14:21,600 --> 01:14:23,479 Speaker 2: worse we need to do something about it. And there's 1613 01:14:23,479 --> 01:14:25,240 Speaker 2: something we're going to do about it might well be 1614 01:14:25,320 --> 01:14:27,880 Speaker 2: some tax rises, which then brings back into play the election, 1615 01:14:28,439 --> 01:14:31,160 Speaker 2: the promises made and whether what we're about to see 1616 01:14:31,439 --> 01:14:34,519 Speaker 2: is an abdication of honesty.

Anyway, the upside of this 1629 01:15:04,680 --> 01:15:06,800 Speaker 2: underlying net profit after tax to fifty one point eight 1630 01:15:06,880 --> 01:15:09,720 Speaker 2: million dividend of five cents per sheer, continued growth in 1631 01:15:09,720 --> 01:15:12,519 Speaker 2: the rental fleet up ten percent, So that's reasonable as 1632 01:15:12,600 --> 01:15:15,320 Speaker 2: far as Victor is concerned. Three hundred and sixty five 1633 01:15:15,360 --> 01:15:18,320 Speaker 2: million group net profit after tax for continued operation seventy 1634 01:15:18,400 --> 01:15:21,160 Speaker 2: nine point nine million, sixty million impairment for the gas 1635 01:15:21,200 --> 01:15:24,360 Speaker 2: distribution business final dividend of thirteen cents. Then we've got 1636 01:15:24,400 --> 01:15:26,400 Speaker 2: good old enz Me, which is the parent company of 1637 01:15:26,439 --> 01:15:29,880 Speaker 2: this particular radio station. Seems to be a not unreasonable result, 1638 01:15:29,920 --> 01:15:34,040 Speaker 2: especially given the fragmented and fragile media market in this country. 1639 01:15:34,040 --> 01:15:35,880 Speaker 2: At the moment. There's a profit at one point nine million, 1640 01:15:36,439 --> 01:15:39,760 Speaker 2: increase in operating revenue, in digital revenue to fifteen million, 1641 01:15:39,800 --> 01:15:42,360 Speaker 2: or fifty point one million up five point nine million. 1642 01:15:42,720 --> 01:15:46,280 Speaker 2: One roof has made a profit, which is good. The 1643 01:15:46,400 --> 01:15:49,120 Speaker 2: listings on one roof the inquiries increased by twenty nine percent. 1644 01:15:49,200 --> 01:15:51,760 Speaker 2: Digital listing's revenues grown by sixty three These are good numbers. 1645 01:15:51,840 --> 01:15:55,760 Speaker 2: Digital audio revenues up thirty three percent, podcast revenues up 1646 01:15:55,800 --> 01:15:59,679 Speaker 2: sixty eight percent. Streaming radio revenue has also increased sixteen percent. 1647 01:15:59,720 --> 01:16:01,880 Speaker 2: So looks reasonably bullish. There are plenty of people in 1648 01:16:01,920 --> 01:16:04,880 Speaker 2: the media market losing money. It doesn't appear to be 1649 01:16:04,920 --> 01:16:06,799 Speaker 2: one of them. Twenty two minutes away from nine. 1650 01:16:07,120 --> 01:16:11,080 Speaker 1: International correspondence with insign Eye Insurance Peace of mind for 1651 01:16:11,160 --> 01:16:12,519 Speaker 1: New Zealand business and we. 1652 01:16:12,479 --> 01:16:13,920 Speaker 2: Are in the Brady very good money to you. 1653 01:16:14,720 --> 01:16:16,080 Speaker 18: Good morning, Mike, good to speak to you again. 1654 01:16:16,320 --> 01:16:18,519 Speaker 2: You too, and the sweets that Sakia is running, it's 1655 01:16:18,560 --> 01:16:21,000 Speaker 2: going to get worse before it gets better. We get 1656 01:16:21,000 --> 01:16:23,479 Speaker 2: a little what chance. We've got some text talking here 1657 01:16:24,320 --> 01:16:25,200 Speaker 2: one percent. 1658 01:16:25,400 --> 01:16:29,000 Speaker 18: Yes, so we've had a public holiday today, but all 1659 01:16:29,080 --> 01:16:30,880 Speaker 18: of the papers here are full of what he will 1660 01:16:30,960 --> 01:16:33,160 Speaker 18: say in the morning when he makes this speech. I 1661 01:16:33,240 --> 01:16:35,479 Speaker 18: think what the Prime Minister is doing is laying the 1662 01:16:35,560 --> 01:16:39,360 Speaker 18: ground for inevitable tax rises. We're told that he has 1663 01:16:39,439 --> 01:16:43,040 Speaker 18: inherited a forty four billion dollar black hole in the 1664 01:16:43,200 --> 01:16:47,040 Speaker 18: UK public finances and he's going to use the phrase 1665 01:16:47,400 --> 01:16:51,360 Speaker 18: rubble and ruin that he inherited from the Conservatives after 1666 01:16:51,520 --> 01:16:54,680 Speaker 18: fourteen years. Rubble and ruin is what he has been 1667 01:16:55,160 --> 01:16:58,880 Speaker 18: given to deal with. So I think inevitably the budget 1668 01:16:58,920 --> 01:17:02,280 Speaker 18: that's coming in October, Rachel Reeves is now Britain's chancellor, 1669 01:17:02,400 --> 01:17:06,040 Speaker 18: first female Chancellor of the Exchequer here, I think taxes 1670 01:17:06,120 --> 01:17:08,960 Speaker 18: will be going up. And this speech letter today it's 1671 01:17:09,000 --> 01:17:11,479 Speaker 18: a big deal because he's effectively laying the ground out 1672 01:17:11,520 --> 01:17:13,439 Speaker 18: as to how we're going to deal with all the problems. 1673 01:17:13,680 --> 01:17:16,599 Speaker 2: How much political capital will he boon avet's the case. 1674 01:17:18,040 --> 01:17:20,280 Speaker 18: I think it's early days, but you're right, there is 1675 01:17:20,520 --> 01:17:23,240 Speaker 18: a risk but he is also going to say that 1676 01:17:23,479 --> 01:17:26,200 Speaker 18: it's going to take ten years to fix Britain. So 1677 01:17:26,400 --> 01:17:29,160 Speaker 18: anyone who thinks he is a one term prime minister, 1678 01:17:29,560 --> 01:17:32,200 Speaker 18: I think he's also setting out his stall that he 1679 01:17:32,280 --> 01:17:34,639 Speaker 18: wants to be re elected. It's going to take ten 1680 01:17:34,760 --> 01:17:37,840 Speaker 18: years to fix all the problems. And I mean everywhere 1681 01:17:37,920 --> 01:17:41,080 Speaker 18: you look like there are issues across Britain. The country 1682 01:17:41,200 --> 01:17:43,560 Speaker 18: is broken, from the potholes in the roads to the 1683 01:17:43,680 --> 01:17:46,400 Speaker 18: rivers you can't swim in because of the sewage discharges. 1684 01:17:46,920 --> 01:17:51,519 Speaker 18: Absolutely every aspect of British life needs fixing and that's 1685 01:17:51,600 --> 01:17:55,080 Speaker 18: going to take money and forty four billion dollars of 1686 01:17:55,120 --> 01:17:57,200 Speaker 18: a black hole. I mean that's before we even get 1687 01:17:57,240 --> 01:17:59,680 Speaker 18: our heads back above water. So I think there will 1688 01:17:59,760 --> 01:18:03,200 Speaker 18: be tough tax rises and big decisions coming. But you're right, 1689 01:18:03,400 --> 01:18:06,240 Speaker 18: he runs the risk that people will immediately turn around 1690 01:18:06,320 --> 01:18:08,080 Speaker 18: and say, oh, here's the guy who pledged during the 1691 01:18:08,160 --> 01:18:10,800 Speaker 18: election campaign that he wouldn't put up taxes and within 1692 01:18:10,840 --> 01:18:13,160 Speaker 18: two months of getting in it's exactly what he's doing. 1693 01:18:13,320 --> 01:18:17,360 Speaker 2: Who comes beckheham as in regards the Tory leader, given 1694 01:18:17,520 --> 01:18:19,360 Speaker 2: this sort of an a process at the moment. 1695 01:18:20,400 --> 01:18:24,760 Speaker 18: Well, they're fighting amongst themselves, really to see who will 1696 01:18:24,800 --> 01:18:28,080 Speaker 18: be the leader, and everything I'm hearing in Westminster, pretty 1697 01:18:28,120 --> 01:18:32,000 Speaker 18: Battel seems to be a front runner. Kenny Badenock absolutely 1698 01:18:32,080 --> 01:18:35,040 Speaker 18: wants to be leader at some stage. James Cleverly is 1699 01:18:35,120 --> 01:18:38,760 Speaker 18: riding quite high former Hallman Foreign Secretary. But I think 1700 01:18:38,760 --> 01:18:41,519 Speaker 18: the difficulty the Conservatives have is there's not that many 1701 01:18:41,600 --> 01:18:44,160 Speaker 18: of them and if you get the leadership now, in 1702 01:18:44,280 --> 01:18:47,519 Speaker 18: all honesty, the party is a basket case at the moment. 1703 01:18:47,960 --> 01:18:50,439 Speaker 18: Are you likely to see out another five years as 1704 01:18:50,479 --> 01:18:53,960 Speaker 18: opposition leader leader of the opposition and then take on 1705 01:18:54,120 --> 01:18:57,320 Speaker 18: Starmer in twenty twenty nine. So I think whoever gets 1706 01:18:57,400 --> 01:19:00,800 Speaker 18: that at the moment will be an inter leader of 1707 01:19:00,880 --> 01:19:03,439 Speaker 18: the Conservatives, teeing it up for someone else to come in. 1708 01:19:03,760 --> 01:19:06,679 Speaker 18: But look, they will take lots of potshots at Starmar 1709 01:19:06,760 --> 01:19:08,920 Speaker 18: in the next twenty four hours for this speech. But 1710 01:19:09,200 --> 01:19:12,080 Speaker 18: I think he's just telling everyone what we already know. 1711 01:19:12,560 --> 01:19:15,160 Speaker 18: That rubble and ruin is what he's got to deal with. 1712 01:19:15,560 --> 01:19:18,880 Speaker 2: If you held a poll, what's the result for Kirsty 1713 01:19:18,920 --> 01:19:21,400 Speaker 2: Alsop They with her or againna. 1714 01:19:22,400 --> 01:19:25,599 Speaker 18: I'm absolutely with her, and I think anyone who's followed 1715 01:19:25,600 --> 01:19:28,760 Speaker 18: this story, so if anyone hasn't seen this. A week ago, 1716 01:19:29,160 --> 01:19:31,720 Speaker 18: she announced on social media that she had allowed her 1717 01:19:31,760 --> 01:19:35,599 Speaker 18: fifteen year old son to go interrailing with his sixteen 1718 01:19:35,680 --> 01:19:39,000 Speaker 18: year old mate across Europe for three weeks on a company, 1719 01:19:39,160 --> 01:19:42,400 Speaker 18: just the two boys, and they successfully did it. They 1720 01:19:42,439 --> 01:19:44,599 Speaker 18: got back home and they went to London, to Paris, 1721 01:19:45,080 --> 01:19:47,840 Speaker 18: to Amsterdam, to Berlin. They went all over. They ended 1722 01:19:47,920 --> 01:19:50,640 Speaker 18: up in the south of France, Barcelona, into Spain and 1723 01:19:50,760 --> 01:19:53,960 Speaker 18: then back to the UK. Now she proudly put that 1724 01:19:54,040 --> 01:19:56,880 Speaker 18: out on social media, got a lot of backlash. What's 1725 01:19:56,960 --> 01:20:01,360 Speaker 18: happened today? It turns out that so Services have had 1726 01:20:01,400 --> 01:20:04,599 Speaker 18: a complaint, So this has been she believes maliciously done. 1727 01:20:04,680 --> 01:20:07,479 Speaker 18: Someone who doesn't like her has rung the local council 1728 01:20:07,800 --> 01:20:11,559 Speaker 18: and complained to Social Services under a child welfare complaint 1729 01:20:12,000 --> 01:20:16,040 Speaker 18: and it's being investigated. So she's absolutely split public opinion. 1730 01:20:16,080 --> 01:20:18,800 Speaker 18: You're right, but I think good luck to her. My 1731 01:20:18,880 --> 01:20:21,200 Speaker 18: young lad sixteen, he's just come back from a week 1732 01:20:21,200 --> 01:20:23,280 Speaker 18: in Ireland with my parents and he had the time 1733 01:20:23,320 --> 01:20:25,000 Speaker 18: of his life and he brought a sixteen year old 1734 01:20:25,040 --> 01:20:27,320 Speaker 18: mate with him. And I know it's different that we 1735 01:20:27,560 --> 01:20:29,840 Speaker 18: escorted him to the airport as he throw in London 1736 01:20:30,120 --> 01:20:32,599 Speaker 18: and my parents went and picked them up in Dublin bus. 1737 01:20:32,920 --> 01:20:35,280 Speaker 18: It gives young people confidence and at some stage we 1738 01:20:35,360 --> 01:20:37,599 Speaker 18: need to cut those baby strings. 1739 01:20:37,680 --> 01:20:40,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, couldn't agree more. Our kids were flying from 1740 01:20:40,200 --> 01:20:42,600 Speaker 2: a very young age by themselves. In this country. We 1741 01:20:42,680 --> 01:20:44,800 Speaker 2: stick little tags on their arms and they get looked 1742 01:20:44,800 --> 01:20:46,640 Speaker 2: after by the earline. But they always made it and 1743 01:20:46,640 --> 01:20:50,360 Speaker 2: they always came back. Now, Spynn Goren Erickson unwell for 1744 01:20:50,439 --> 01:20:52,080 Speaker 2: about a year, a year and a half or thereabout. 1745 01:20:52,439 --> 01:20:54,519 Speaker 2: Where does he sit in the panels around the annals 1746 01:20:54,560 --> 01:20:55,160 Speaker 2: of history there? 1747 01:20:56,200 --> 01:20:58,000 Speaker 18: Well, I think he will get down as well as 1748 01:20:58,160 --> 01:21:00,479 Speaker 18: historic football manager for England because as he was the 1749 01:21:00,520 --> 01:21:03,400 Speaker 18: first foreigner, the first non English person to get the job, 1750 01:21:03,479 --> 01:21:05,519 Speaker 18: and there was a big hullabaloo when he got it. 1751 01:21:05,720 --> 01:21:07,640 Speaker 18: Was there no one good enough in England, no one 1752 01:21:07,920 --> 01:21:10,360 Speaker 18: English who was good enough to manage England. And then 1753 01:21:10,360 --> 01:21:13,240 Speaker 18: he quickly started winning matches, and of course, as we've 1754 01:21:13,240 --> 01:21:15,479 Speaker 18: seen in any sport, you know, as soon as a 1755 01:21:15,600 --> 01:21:19,920 Speaker 18: win starts happening and more wins come, everyone gets on board. 1756 01:21:20,360 --> 01:21:23,160 Speaker 18: I think he was desperately unlucky not to win something. 1757 01:21:23,200 --> 01:21:25,360 Speaker 18: With the England squad he had at the time played 1758 01:21:25,439 --> 01:21:29,439 Speaker 18: sixty seven matches one forty he had peak David Beckham 1759 01:21:29,520 --> 01:21:33,320 Speaker 18: in his prime, Frank Lampard, Stephen Gerrard, Ria Ferdinand, very 1760 01:21:33,479 --> 01:21:37,200 Speaker 18: very good players. And it's an absolute tragedy what's happened. 1761 01:21:37,240 --> 01:21:41,760 Speaker 18: Spen seventy six, diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, but he gave 1762 01:21:41,880 --> 01:21:45,160 Speaker 18: some really intelligent interviews in the last few weeks. So 1763 01:21:45,280 --> 01:21:47,960 Speaker 18: he's passed away in Sweden with his family by his side. 1764 01:21:48,040 --> 01:21:50,599 Speaker 18: But then one little quote that he said last week 1765 01:21:50,800 --> 01:21:54,160 Speaker 18: was that one aspect of life that nobody ever talks 1766 01:21:54,160 --> 01:21:55,400 Speaker 18: about is death. 1767 01:21:55,800 --> 01:21:57,519 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's true. Good on you, Mike, we'll catch up. 1768 01:21:57,720 --> 01:21:59,519 Speaker 2: I appreciate it very much. Into Brady out in Britain 1769 01:21:59,760 --> 01:22:01,880 Speaker 2: this just before we leave their sixteen away from nine 1770 01:22:01,920 --> 01:22:04,040 Speaker 2: by the Paskimes. I'm really about the number of neats. 1771 01:22:04,120 --> 01:22:06,120 Speaker 2: Neats is a sort of a you can get the 1772 01:22:06,400 --> 01:22:08,320 Speaker 2: term all over the world, but they're basically young people 1773 01:22:08,360 --> 01:22:11,680 Speaker 2: who are not in employment, educational training, and this is 1774 01:22:11,720 --> 01:22:13,439 Speaker 2: part of what's wrong with Britain at the moment, sixteen 1775 01:22:13,479 --> 01:22:15,760 Speaker 2: to twenty four year olds. It's reached eight hundred and 1776 01:22:15,920 --> 01:22:21,360 Speaker 2: seventy two thousand neats in Britain and that's up seventy 1777 01:22:21,439 --> 01:22:26,360 Speaker 2: foury twelve point two percent of all young people sixteen 1778 01:22:26,400 --> 01:22:28,120 Speaker 2: to twenty four. And I say young twenty four is 1779 01:22:28,160 --> 01:22:29,800 Speaker 2: not young twenty four to twenty three. Twenty you know, 1780 01:22:29,840 --> 01:22:33,880 Speaker 2: it's not young neat. So they can be unemployed actively 1781 01:22:33,960 --> 01:22:36,040 Speaker 2: seeking work, and as Rod has talked to us before, 1782 01:22:36,080 --> 01:22:39,200 Speaker 2: they can be economically inactive, not seeking work. And that 1783 01:22:39,360 --> 01:22:43,200 Speaker 2: is the great post COVID fear is that people went 1784 01:22:43,320 --> 01:22:45,920 Speaker 2: home decided that sitting on the sofa was probably for 1785 01:22:46,040 --> 01:22:48,840 Speaker 2: them and they never got offered. About two thirds of 1786 01:22:48,920 --> 01:22:53,439 Speaker 2: neats fall into the economically inactive category. It's becoming a crisis. 1787 01:22:53,840 --> 01:22:54,759 Speaker 2: Eight forty five. 1788 01:22:56,280 --> 01:22:59,600 Speaker 1: The High Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on I Have 1789 01:22:59,760 --> 01:23:01,720 Speaker 1: Read You coward by news Talk said be. 1790 01:23:02,040 --> 01:23:04,160 Speaker 2: Mic Has fifteen. When I went into railing forty five 1791 01:23:04,240 --> 01:23:06,760 Speaker 2: years ago, a very popular in Europe, great way to 1792 01:23:06,760 --> 01:23:08,720 Speaker 2: see the world, and nobody question what we did. It 1793 01:23:08,880 --> 01:23:11,080 Speaker 2: was the thing to do. I blame over protective parents. 1794 01:23:11,120 --> 01:23:13,240 Speaker 2: Mike at sixteen hours alow to go on a train, hitchhiking, 1795 01:23:13,280 --> 01:23:16,559 Speaker 2: camping with a mate around the South Island. Great memories, 1796 01:23:16,640 --> 01:23:19,360 Speaker 2: all part of growing up. Mikela's uber decision really muddies 1797 01:23:19,360 --> 01:23:21,960 Speaker 2: the water sign up as a contractor. Then when it 1798 01:23:22,040 --> 01:23:24,519 Speaker 2: doesn't suit you becoming an employee without negotiation, and can 1799 01:23:24,560 --> 01:23:26,880 Speaker 2: sender of your employee, yeah, report it suggests. I mean, 1800 01:23:26,920 --> 01:23:28,720 Speaker 2: I know it's all union based and stuff like that, 1801 01:23:28,800 --> 01:23:30,960 Speaker 2: but when we report that it's good news for drivers, 1802 01:23:31,040 --> 01:23:34,040 Speaker 2: it's not because many drivers. There are four drivers who 1803 01:23:34,040 --> 01:23:36,040 Speaker 2: have taken this. For the four drivers to this point, 1804 01:23:36,120 --> 01:23:38,400 Speaker 2: it is good news because that's what they wanted. But 1805 01:23:38,560 --> 01:23:40,560 Speaker 2: for the many hundreds of drivers who didn't want it, 1806 01:23:40,840 --> 01:23:42,600 Speaker 2: it's not good news at all. It up ends what 1807 01:23:42,720 --> 01:23:44,880 Speaker 2: they thought they had, so there's nothing good about it 1808 01:23:44,920 --> 01:23:47,360 Speaker 2: at all. By the way, Yampy Sound my sister in 1809 01:23:47,439 --> 01:23:48,880 Speaker 2: laws and Brisbane at the moment, having the time of 1810 01:23:48,920 --> 01:23:50,400 Speaker 2: a life set it was thirty thirty one degrees the 1811 01:23:50,479 --> 01:23:52,800 Speaker 2: last couple of days. I thought, geez, that sounds warm 1812 01:23:53,360 --> 01:23:56,519 Speaker 2: and there's a massive, massive thing over the top part 1813 01:23:56,560 --> 01:23:59,559 Speaker 2: of Australia in terms of heat and Yampy Sound yesterday 1814 01:23:59,640 --> 01:24:01,320 Speaker 2: was forty one one points six. It's in the Kimberley 1815 01:24:01,880 --> 01:24:05,479 Speaker 2: and that's a new winter temperature. Never been hotter than 1816 01:24:05,560 --> 01:24:08,760 Speaker 2: forty one point six in August in the Empty Sound. 1817 01:24:09,280 --> 01:24:11,680 Speaker 2: And they've got this weather going to wa Nt and 1818 01:24:11,760 --> 01:24:13,559 Speaker 2: New South Wales as well as Queensland for the rest 1819 01:24:13,600 --> 01:24:16,720 Speaker 2: of the week and that presumably we'll get across here, 1820 01:24:16,920 --> 01:24:19,040 Speaker 2: which is part of the ongoing. As I said yesterday, 1821 01:24:19,040 --> 01:24:20,320 Speaker 2: when I left the country on the weekend it was 1822 01:24:20,360 --> 01:24:22,320 Speaker 2: twenty degrees. I mean, it's just ridiculous at the moment 1823 01:24:22,360 --> 01:24:23,840 Speaker 2: the world's changing. Must we have something to do with 1824 01:24:23,880 --> 01:24:25,600 Speaker 2: climate change? I don't know if anyone's thought about that. 1825 01:24:26,680 --> 01:24:28,439 Speaker 2: By the way, quick quiz, you're ready for this? This 1826 01:24:28,600 --> 01:24:31,479 Speaker 2: is too stupid for words? How many? And I thought 1827 01:24:31,479 --> 01:24:34,320 Speaker 2: about this this morning ironically because in my area's you know, 1828 01:24:34,360 --> 01:24:36,560 Speaker 2: there's little bins they put out. Won't be around the 1829 01:24:36,600 --> 01:24:39,360 Speaker 2: whole country, but they've put these tiny little bins at 1830 01:24:39,400 --> 01:24:41,479 Speaker 2: the size smaller than the size of a ten liter 1831 01:24:41,720 --> 01:24:44,320 Speaker 2: paint can. And they put these little bins out and 1832 01:24:44,360 --> 01:24:46,000 Speaker 2: I don't even know what goes in. There's a food waste. 1833 01:24:46,000 --> 01:24:46,880 Speaker 2: I think it's food, correct. 1834 01:24:47,000 --> 01:24:48,639 Speaker 15: I believe it's supposed to be food waste. 1835 01:24:48,720 --> 01:24:50,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, So some people put them out and some of 1836 01:24:51,000 --> 01:24:53,280 Speaker 2: them blow down the street. A lot of people don't 1837 01:24:53,320 --> 01:24:57,920 Speaker 2: bother anyway. In Wales it has been announced overnight that 1838 01:24:58,040 --> 01:25:00,559 Speaker 2: they so we've got three it'd have a red lid 1839 01:25:00,720 --> 01:25:03,439 Speaker 2: in Now you're red lid. Thats your standard, you'd have 1840 01:25:03,560 --> 01:25:06,479 Speaker 2: your what's the recycling blue? Is it yellow? It was 1841 01:25:06,520 --> 01:25:08,439 Speaker 2: not at our places? What are you yellow? 1842 01:25:08,800 --> 01:25:10,120 Speaker 15: I don't think you want to get too bogged down 1843 01:25:10,160 --> 01:25:11,000 Speaker 15: in the colors. 1844 01:25:10,760 --> 01:25:12,920 Speaker 2: Because have we gone just definitely we got through. 1845 01:25:12,800 --> 01:25:14,960 Speaker 14: In different places. You're going to have different ways. Yeah, 1846 01:25:15,000 --> 01:25:19,320 Speaker 14: but we've got three basically ye Whales. They have the 1847 01:25:19,400 --> 01:25:23,880 Speaker 14: highest number average number of bins in the UK. They 1848 01:25:23,880 --> 01:25:26,599 Speaker 14: are second in the world for recycling household waste, only 1849 01:25:26,720 --> 01:25:29,439 Speaker 14: behind Germany. So God knows, I must investigate over God 1850 01:25:29,520 --> 01:25:30,880 Speaker 14: knows how many bins Germany's got. 1851 01:25:31,400 --> 01:25:37,800 Speaker 2: They have on average in Wales ten ten bins per 1852 01:25:37,960 --> 01:25:40,720 Speaker 2: house At which point you would ask the question is 1853 01:25:40,760 --> 01:25:42,360 Speaker 2: really worth saving the planet when you've got a deal 1854 01:25:42,400 --> 01:25:43,800 Speaker 2: with ten bins? And what do you put in those 1855 01:25:43,800 --> 01:25:45,559 Speaker 2: ten bins? And does anyone actually follow us? 1856 01:25:45,920 --> 01:25:48,639 Speaker 15: Does the same people another question? Does the same people 1857 01:25:48,960 --> 01:25:50,479 Speaker 15: make the bins that makes the cones? 1858 01:25:50,600 --> 01:25:52,280 Speaker 2: It's pretty good question, very good. 1859 01:25:52,479 --> 01:25:55,080 Speaker 15: Somebody's somebody's part of a. 1860 01:25:55,080 --> 01:25:57,160 Speaker 2: Lot of plastic being made. There isn't there nine away 1861 01:25:57,200 --> 01:25:57,799 Speaker 2: from nine. 1862 01:26:00,040 --> 01:26:03,280 Speaker 1: Asking breakfast with the range river The News. 1863 01:26:03,160 --> 01:26:07,320 Speaker 2: Talks just a research department onto the German situation, visa 1864 01:26:07,400 --> 01:26:10,400 Speaker 2: VI the bins. You can recycle dead animals in Germany 1865 01:26:10,640 --> 01:26:13,439 Speaker 2: for reasons best known to themselves. And you can also 1866 01:26:13,520 --> 01:26:16,560 Speaker 2: drop your deer heads, which means you obviously had to 1867 01:26:16,840 --> 01:26:19,479 Speaker 2: one kill the deer, but then slice the head off 1868 01:26:19,640 --> 01:26:22,800 Speaker 2: and then take the head presumably what in a bag 1869 01:26:23,600 --> 01:26:25,960 Speaker 2: or at the back of your car to the dump 1870 01:26:26,800 --> 01:26:35,519 Speaker 2: where they then make it into lip balm, not just 1871 01:26:35,640 --> 01:26:40,680 Speaker 2: lo bam. How do they put the watermelon flavor in? 1872 01:26:40,960 --> 01:26:43,320 Speaker 15: But certainly next time you are purchasing a lip barm, 1873 01:26:43,479 --> 01:26:47,800 Speaker 15: just haven't have another little squires exactly what the ingredients are. 1874 01:26:48,120 --> 01:26:51,320 Speaker 2: Delicious, Mike, make all the bins orange so they can 1875 01:26:51,360 --> 01:26:53,000 Speaker 2: work as cones on the side of the road.

It's very 1886 01:27:19,720 --> 01:27:22,280 Speaker 2: very effective, and it saves shemying the thing too, and 1887 01:27:22,560 --> 01:27:24,760 Speaker 2: it speeds up the process, and the neighbors love it. 1888 01:27:25,040 --> 01:27:29,000 Speaker 2: Of one hundred percent.
