1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:03,040
Speaker 1: UK bound rob Little morning mate, Good morning to you mate.

2
00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:06,160
Speaker 1: We're particularly interested, of course, in this yacht disaster. Give

3
00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:08,879
Speaker 1: them a New Zealander or a New Zealand born citizen

4
00:00:09,360 --> 00:00:12,840
Speaker 1: on the apparently. But what do you know from Urian

5
00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:13,960
Speaker 1: what happened here?

6
00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:17,720
Speaker 2: Well, it seems to have been you would know the

7
00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:21,319
Speaker 2: terminology better than me. You need u kiwis. But it

8
00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:26,680
Speaker 2: seems to have been moored off Porticello near Palermo, off

9
00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:31,440
Speaker 2: the coast of Sicily, during what was an uncommonly rare

10
00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:37,800
Speaker 2: storm which hit the boat as it was Moored's mast

11
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:42,720
Speaker 2: was stapped in half. The yachts seem to lose all

12
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:47,400
Speaker 2: balance and capsized. That's all we know at the moment,

13
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:49,920
Speaker 2: and we know that there were twenty two people on

14
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:53,560
Speaker 2: board that aside from the New Zealand, there were also

15
00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:58,240
Speaker 2: people from the US, Canada, Sri Lanka, Ireland, but primarily

16
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:03,800
Speaker 2: it was Brits. And we know that there is certainly

17
00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:06,720
Speaker 2: one person who's died, but there are six who are missing.

18
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:11,240
Speaker 2: And the one who's attracting the attention, of course, as

19
00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:14,960
Speaker 2: he would is Mike Lynch, who is sometimes referred to

20
00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:21,000
Speaker 2: as Britain's Bill Gates. He's a high tech entrepreneur who

21
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:24,360
Speaker 2: has had his brushes with authority in the past, but

22
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:27,399
Speaker 2: is generally regarded as a very very clever bloke and

23
00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 2: indeed a very very successful entrepreneur. And his eighteen year

24
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:34,479
Speaker 2: old daughter, Hannah is also missing as well.

25
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:37,400
Speaker 1: Exactly all right, well we'll stay across listally what happened?

26
00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 1: And funny somebody text me about the supermoon the other day,

27
00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:43,319
Speaker 1: yesterday in fact, and I saw the moon and at

28
00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:45,640
Speaker 1: no point did I go, my god, that's big and blue.

29
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 1: So obviously it looks different in your part of the

30
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 1: world than it does here.

31
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:52,480
Speaker 2: No, it doesn't look blue. It looks a bit bigger.

32
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:56,960
Speaker 2: It's very interesting. You know. I don't know what's happened

33
00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 2: with the world, but we seem to be getting more

34
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:03,720
Speaker 2: and more of these supermoons. I'm sure they're meant to

35
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 2: be sort of at irregular pace, but in the last

36
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:09,480
Speaker 2: ten years it's red. We ob the newspaper not read

37
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:12,040
Speaker 2: that there's a supermoon about to come, and that that

38
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 2: will portend all sorts of ill omens, such as the

39
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:19,200
Speaker 2: Third World War, armageddon, and the coming of the Messiah. Mike,

40
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:25,160
Speaker 2: I hope you're ready for that. This one is supposedly

41
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 2: exceedingly rare in that it is a blue supermoon, So

42
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:31,920
Speaker 2: a supermoan we get three to four times a year

43
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:35,920
Speaker 2: when the moon's that it's closest to Earth. But a

44
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:40,640
Speaker 2: blue moon is the second full moon in a calendar months,

45
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 2: which happens obviously only four years, only once every four years,

46
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:48,560
Speaker 2: so this is very very rare, and it's due to

47
00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 2: appear exactly now, Mike. So when we're finished, I'm going

48
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,920
Speaker 2: to go outside and try to peer through the rain

49
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 2: which is pouring down and the clouds which are covering

50
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 2: the sky up here in the northeast of England, to

51
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:04,840
Speaker 2: see if I can see this phenomena. There are loads

52
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:07,680
Speaker 2: of other phenomena. August is a great month in the

53
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:14,000
Speaker 2: Northern Hemisphere and particularly Britain for astronomical phenomena. We get

54
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:19,480
Speaker 2: to play these asteroids coming down to Earth which are

55
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:24,000
Speaker 2: easily seen and they just look like sort of rather

56
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 2: bad fireworks. And we also get, unusually for summer, the

57
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:35,840
Speaker 2: Northern Lights, which were seen recently as far south as Lincolnshire. Wow.

58
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 1: Actually, well I've got you Ron help me out here.

59
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:41,120
Speaker 1: Story I'm reading over the weekend about this is the

60
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 1: new government and the pressure must be on given what

61
00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 1: they did with Rwanda, Labor told to urgently get a grip.

62
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 1: Five hundred illegal migrants arrived from the English channel in

63
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:55,240
Speaker 1: one single day over the weekend. That surely can't continue.

64
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 2: It will continue, It'll continue for the next four years.

65
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,160
Speaker 2: I don't think that the Labor Party has the Labor

66
00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:06,960
Speaker 2: government has any plans whatsoever to actually cope with this

67
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:11,400
Speaker 2: huge influx of people, the majority of which in Flanders

68
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:14,920
Speaker 2: don't come on votes across from Calais. The majority coming

69
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:19,360
Speaker 2: perfectly legally, six hundred and fifty thousand of them last year,

70
00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:22,919
Speaker 2: which is a huge problem. It depresses wages, et cetera,

71
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 2: et cetera, causes social problems, et cetera. They don't seem

72
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:30,839
Speaker 2: to have a plan for the vigrants. The idea before

73
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 2: the election was that they would was that they would

74
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:37,679
Speaker 2: try to hunt down the traffickers. Well we've been trying

75
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:44,120
Speaker 2: to do that for fifteen years. Hasn't worked. So they

76
00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:50,080
Speaker 2: certainly have no other plan than Ruanda and this will continue,

77
00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:53,159
Speaker 2: I promise you for the next four to five years.

78
00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:55,359
Speaker 1: Well, we'll see you on Thursday, Roder. I appreciate you

79
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,719
