I 52 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 2: reckon to turn out who can motivate their side to 53 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:35,800 Speaker 2: get out and cast about it.

Big announcement 58 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 2: from iPhone do we still care about these? iPhone has 59 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:57,120 Speaker 2: got their annual hardware events the iPhone sixteen if you 60 00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 2: can believe it. They're promoting this as a glow up 61 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 2: for the iPhone. I'm not quite sure what it will 62 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,239 Speaker 2: involve yet, but they reckon that we have pretty much 63 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 2: reached peak camera on the iPhone, that you get to 64 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 2: a certain point with a camera where human humans in 65 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:20,000 Speaker 2: our eyes aren't capable of perceiving highest screen resolution. So 66 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 2: it's as good as it's going to get and as 67 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 2: good as it needs to get. So what else are 68 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 2: they going to focus on? Apparently it's all about AI, 69 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:30,480 Speaker 2: the new one Apple Intelligence. They're calling it, not artificial intelligence, 70 00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 2: so will What this will basically do, I'm reliably informed, 71 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 2: is use your personal information that you've got on your phone. 72 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 2: So you could say, iPhone, why is Sally in an 73 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 2: argument with Susan? And it will scan through your messages 74 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:49,119 Speaker 2: and it will say, oh, well, they were fighting over 75 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 2: a boyfriend according to messages in your phone from twenty sixteen. 76 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:58,480 Speaker 2: Is that you know? Is that useful information? I suppose probably? 77 00:03:58,600 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 2: Is it necessary? 78 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 7: No? 79 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 2: Is it worth the million dollars you will need to 80 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 2: spend on the new iPhone once it comes out and 81 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:10,960 Speaker 2: is announced today? Certainly not to me. Brian Bridge ten 82 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 2: minutes after five. Also, interestingly, today there's a story about 83 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:18,919 Speaker 2: wealth and how much money Elon Musk is going to 84 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:21,360 Speaker 2: be worth. I know we spoke about Elon Musk on Friday, 85 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 2: but it's basically saying he will be the world's first trillionaire. 86 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 2: That's despite the ev market collapsing in X's band in Brazil. 87 00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:32,479 Speaker 2: He will be the world's first trillionaire. He's currently worth 88 00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:36,920 Speaker 2: just two hundred and fifty billion, dropping the bucket. How 89 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,600 Speaker 2: quick can he get there? They reckon by twenty twenty 90 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 2: seven he'll be a trillionaire. His wealth is growing leaps 91 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:48,720 Speaker 2: and bounds up one hundred and ten percent every year. 92 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:53,320 Speaker 2: It's pretty incredible. And Zuckerberg loser, He's not going to 93 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:57,080 Speaker 2: head it till twenty thirty. What's most interesting, though, is 94 00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 2: it is the AI guys who are doing really well 95 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:05,120 Speaker 2: and in video that AI chip making company, that guy 96 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:10,719 Speaker 2: they reckon will be a trillionaire before Zuckerberg. And who 97 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 2: is he? You know, I didn't even bother saying his 98 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 2: name because I don't even know who he is. But 99 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 2: it's the AI. That's how we're making wealth into the future. 100 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:21,719 Speaker 2: You know, the first two hundred the last two hundred years, 101 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 2: it was the industrial Revolution. Off we go making stuff 102 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:29,359 Speaker 2: for the masses. Now it's just robots AI doing it 103 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:33,080 Speaker 2: for us.

It's obviously very unpopular with some. 116 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 5: It's a tough decision, but I'm determined that we will 117 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:15,560 Speaker 5: take the tough decisions. 118 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 2: He's got a vote this week to get it through. 119 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 2: How many of his MPs will rebel?

The community affected 126 00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:40,279 Speaker 2: is it to pay? Who the mayor is?

What are you hearing about 129 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:46,680 Speaker 2: what's going to happen. 130 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:51,599 Speaker 8: Well, my understanding and is ryan that there's been postponed 131 00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 8: till tomorrow at three o'clock. Winston Media report yesterday, like 132 00:06:56,920 --> 00:06:59,360 Speaker 8: yesterday syndicated that they want to put it all an 133 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:03,160 Speaker 8: extra day, So obviously something's happening in the background there 134 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:06,400 Speaker 8: and that you know, obviously it's a big issue for 135 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:08,880 Speaker 8: not only the community, but for their company as well. 136 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:10,320 Speaker 8: So we'll wait with interest tomorrow. 137 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:13,400 Speaker 2: What conversations have you had with the government. Are you 138 00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 2: hopeful that they will be able to help in some way? 139 00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:20,239 Speaker 8: Yes, I am hopeful. I think there's been a genuine 140 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:24,080 Speaker 8: interest in this throughout the government. I understand there are 141 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 8: about five ministers involved with the roundtable discussions with not 142 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 8: only Winston POLP, but other operators as well. And obviously 143 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:36,960 Speaker 8: the energy companies have been heavily involved in how they 144 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 8: can help these sorts of businesses that are struggling at 145 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 8: times of the year where energy prices are spiked to 146 00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:47,720 Speaker 8: the point where they cannot function. And of course that's 147 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,240 Speaker 8: sort of interest to not only the government, but the 148 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:54,040 Speaker 8: whole country. So this is not just a local issue, 149 00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:57,400 Speaker 8: it's a nationwide issue and of course effects our overseas 150 00:07:57,400 --> 00:07:58,040 Speaker 8: trade as well. 151 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 2: Is realistically western. There's nothing the government can do in 152 00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 2: the short term for these jobs, is there really? 153 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:08,480 Speaker 8: I think so? I think so when you can consider, 154 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 8: of course, well, they can actually cap the electricity prices 155 00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:15,840 Speaker 8: as understand it, they can intervene, and particularly when they're 156 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:19,120 Speaker 8: getting a nearly a billion dollars with a profit, and 157 00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 8: half of that of course goes to the state owned enterprise, 158 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 8: which of courses New Zealand government. So you can't tell 159 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:28,960 Speaker 8: me that they can take a profit to the tune 160 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 8: of the half a billion dollars and put that in 161 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:33,040 Speaker 8: the pot and say, well, didn't we do well with 162 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:37,040 Speaker 8: the energy pricing profits. It doesn't work that way. 163 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 2: You've got to So you want western you're calling against 164 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:42,440 Speaker 2: the me effort of pay. You're saying you want to 165 00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 2: cap on wholesale electricity prices for mills in your area. 166 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:50,360 Speaker 8: Yes, I would suggest that this is not new when 167 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:53,600 Speaker 8: you look at other industries and other situations like ty 168 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:57,559 Speaker 8: Point for example, they were bailed out earlier and cap 169 00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:01,680 Speaker 8: the price to allow them to fund. The detail of that, 170 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:05,320 Speaker 8: I haven't got that. But nevertheless, government have a stake 171 00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:09,200 Speaker 8: in this and the stakes are do we forego a 172 00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 8: lot of small businesses not small actually they are investors 173 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:17,320 Speaker 8: from overseas Malaysia for example, coming into our country investing 174 00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:20,000 Speaker 8: into this sort of product that allows us to get 175 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 8: export trade. And of course everyone has a stakeholding in that. 176 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:27,240 Speaker 8: And I would suggest that the government have a president 177 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:30,959 Speaker 8: there that they can actually cap ultrasty prices to allow 178 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:33,439 Speaker 8: it to get over the line until such time it 179 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 8: smooths it out. So if we can't do that as 180 00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:37,959 Speaker 8: a New Zealand government as in New Zealand Inc. Then 181 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:44,120 Speaker 8: something's jurassically wrong with our mechanism of actually trading long term. 182 00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 8: So this is a long term plan. This is something 183 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 8: that we need to address. 184 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 2: All right, Weston, thank you very much for that. Updated 185 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 2: really appreciate That's Western Curtain.

But that's quite a different deal to 194 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 2: capping a wholesale interest, sorry, a wholesale electricity rate, isn't it? 195 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:27,680 Speaker 2: Nine two nine two is the number to text eighteen 196 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:29,480 Speaker 2: minutes after five news talks at Big. 197 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 1: Get ahead of the headlines, Ryan Bridge, you for twenty 198 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:37,600 Speaker 1: twenty four on early edition with Smith City new zeasand 199 00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 1: furniture beds and a playing store News talks, it'd be 200 00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 1: good morning. 201 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:43,560 Speaker 2: It's five twenty.

The 208 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:06,360 Speaker 2: one and this is the real interesting part. The one 209 00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 2: target they didn't meet was listening and responding to Aucklander's 210 00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 2: twenty one minutes after five, Andrew Ellison's head was for 211 00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 2: good morning. 212 00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:20,400 Speaker 4: Greetings, Ryan. Nothing like self praise, No praise, is it? 213 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:20,679 Speaker 1: You know? 214 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:23,760 Speaker 2: Hey? The all but Can we start with the All 215 00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:26,800 Speaker 2: Blacks the lost, How are we feeling? And how did 216 00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 2: you think Razor did with the press afterwards? 217 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 4: Oh look, I'm always yeah, welcome to Razors generally pre open, etc. 218 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 4: I think he's probably feeling some pressure. You know, seven 219 00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:41,640 Speaker 4: games in, he's got seven games going his opening season, 220 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:44,960 Speaker 4: He's four wins, three losses. I think that's an aw 221 00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 4: position to be. Although the South African team is one 222 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:50,880 Speaker 4: of the best South African teams, I think the history 223 00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 4: has seen and the World champions for a reason. 224 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:56,080 Speaker 2: I had, I must have. 225 00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 4: I was a bit nervous earlier in the week and 226 00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 4: I thought it's skeptical because when you see them relaxing 227 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:04,800 Speaker 4: like Russi Arrasthmus did in the build up, laughing away, 228 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:07,880 Speaker 4: et cetera, didn't suggest that they are under a great 229 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:10,480 Speaker 4: deal of pressure. And I think New Zealand and the 230 00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 4: All Blacks have a lot of work to do to 231 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 4: earn that parody. They're are far away in the eighteen 232 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 4: twelve and I guess you have the penalty from McKenzie 233 00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 4: that's not going to win the game, given they still 234 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 4: scored after that. South Africa, But I think, yes, it's 235 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:28,400 Speaker 4: it's face shaping up to be a real challenge for 236 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:30,440 Speaker 4: that New Zealand team to go from there, and if 237 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 4: they win them letters lay Cup, you retain that for 238 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 4: another year and then they go on to succeed on 239 00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:36,880 Speaker 4: the end of year tour. I think that will get 240 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 4: back some confidence at least for the New Zealand side, 241 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:42,800 Speaker 4: but it'll still be, as they say, the rock under 242 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:45,560 Speaker 4: the beach towel at the end of the season. 243 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:50,280 Speaker 2: Absolutely the Paralympics. Overnight we've had bronze from Peter Cowen 244 00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 2: and the two hundred meter canoe sprint we. 245 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:54,959 Speaker 4: Have and that's wrapped the campaign for New Zealand. I 246 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 4: think fifty first on the medal table, not that that 247 00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 4: really matters a great deal here, I mean star of 248 00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 4: the show and Grimaldi with the turing meter victory, not 249 00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 4: winning in I guess favorite event, the long jump, but 250 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:09,680 Speaker 4: going on to deliver and getting his lit on that 251 00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:12,439 Speaker 4: gold medal for silver and four bronze as well to 252 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:15,560 Speaker 4: go with that. I think what I take from those games, 253 00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:17,480 Speaker 4: I ryan is just some of the moments you see 254 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:21,680 Speaker 4: people the achievement overcoming adversity. For me, I mean just 255 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,040 Speaker 4: you know, a guy holding a table tennis bat in 256 00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:27,240 Speaker 4: his in his mouth and you know, and actually playing 257 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:31,000 Speaker 4: ping pong in that regard. And you know, a seventeen 258 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:33,960 Speaker 4: year old Indian girl with the putting the arrow into 259 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:36,720 Speaker 4: her bow with her foot. I saw that, you know, 260 00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 4: holding it in her mouth, and I'm thinking, man, that 261 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:44,000 Speaker 4: is just some serious commitment. That's you know, just perseverance 262 00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:46,920 Speaker 4: and overcoming adversities. Saying that, those are the stories that 263 00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:48,720 Speaker 4: I enjoy about the Paralympic Games. 264 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:53,200 Speaker 2: The US Men's tennis finals starts as the US Open 265 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:54,800 Speaker 2: starts in well half an hour. 266 00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, you'll be able to turn in after your shift, 267 00:13:56,559 --> 00:14:00,199 Speaker 4: you know, just Yarlick center of against Taylor Fritz to 268 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:03,199 Speaker 4: complete the US Open campaign for me and for women. 269 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 4: But yes, Sin looking to I guess back up from 270 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 4: his Australian Open victory earlier on the year, Fritz into 271 00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:14,320 Speaker 4: his first Grand Slam final. But I think also for Sinner, 272 00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:15,920 Speaker 4: I mean obviously has been that pressure on him over 273 00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:19,520 Speaker 4: those drugs tests and the failure of those union of 274 00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:21,400 Speaker 4: course he got the dispensation as a result of that, 275 00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 4: so there's been pressure on him throughout. So whether he 276 00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:26,320 Speaker 4: can deliver and then get a second Grand Slam will 277 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:27,720 Speaker 4: wait and see is the number one in the world. 278 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:29,600 Speaker 2: Brilliant. Thank you so much for the Andrew good to 279 00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 2: see as always Andrew Ordison as Zidb's sport. Just gone 280 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:34,680 Speaker 2: twenty four minutes after five the. 281 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:38,880 Speaker 1: Early edition Full the Show podcast on iHeartRadio Power by 282 00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:39,640 Speaker 1: News Talks. 283 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:43,400 Speaker 2: AV twenty six after five News Talks There'd be interesting, 284 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 2: op ed. This is from the Conversation Chris Gledhill, the 285 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 2: professor of Law at Auckland University of Technology, and op 286 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:53,040 Speaker 2: ed about the government's new gang legislation. It argues that 287 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:55,240 Speaker 2: the changes that are being made in some last minute 288 00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:57,720 Speaker 2: ones couldn't pinge on the Bill of Rights, and it 289 00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:01,480 Speaker 2: makes some good points. It also says that people join 290 00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 2: gangs for various reasons. For some it is a matter 291 00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:07,760 Speaker 2: of family connections. For others, gang membership may arise from 292 00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:11,520 Speaker 2: being marginalized from society. The Royal Commission on Abuse and 293 00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 2: Care highlighted that abuse was also a pathway into gang membership, 294 00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:19,600 Speaker 2: and in twenty eighteen a report highlighted that imprisonment feeds 295 00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:24,440 Speaker 2: gang recruitment. So you don't have a choice if you 296 00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:27,920 Speaker 2: are poor, if you have family in a gang, if 297 00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:30,480 Speaker 2: you went to jail and they recruited you in jail. 298 00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:33,720 Speaker 2: That's on society, not on you. You don't have a 299 00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:37,200 Speaker 2: choice in the matter. It's a crucial part of the 300 00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 2: puzzle because it sets up the entire system of response 301 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:44,200 Speaker 2: to dealing with the problem. Right, if you're not responsible 302 00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:47,360 Speaker 2: or capable of saying no to a gang life, how 303 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 2: can you be punished for that? Association? Is the expectation 304 00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:55,680 Speaker 2: that if you join a gang, and you've been raised 305 00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:58,840 Speaker 2: in a household that is associated with a gang, that 306 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:02,160 Speaker 2: you are impoverished, that you don't know what is right 307 00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:05,880 Speaker 2: and what is wrong, and if so, how can you 308 00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:10,360 Speaker 2: be punished? You know? Nine two the number to text. 309 00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:13,880 Speaker 2: I interviewed a guy called Puck out of the Hawks Bay. 310 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:16,760 Speaker 2: He was with the Mongol mob. This is years ago, 311 00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:19,280 Speaker 2: and he was done for a homicide and spent time 312 00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 2: in prison, but then turned his life around, had a 313 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:25,000 Speaker 2: positive role model, and he knew what he had done 314 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:27,480 Speaker 2: was wrong. I sat down with him for a good 315 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:30,040 Speaker 2: couple of hours, had a good chat. He knew what 316 00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:34,120 Speaker 2: he had done was wrong and was remorseful and really 317 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:37,200 Speaker 2: sorry and wanted to apologize to the people that he 318 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 2: had heard. And then I found out about a year 319 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:46,320 Speaker 2: later back in jail, he had turned his life around. 320 00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:49,240 Speaker 2: In fact, the then Prime Minister Cindra Donad use him 321 00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 2: as an example of somebody who could turn their life 322 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,840 Speaker 2: around with a positive role model, etc. Anyway, he then 323 00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:59,000 Speaker 2: did some horrendous domestic violence stuff, dealing meth in prison. 324 00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:01,280 Speaker 2: I mean, you name it. So there's a guy who 325 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:04,919 Speaker 2: I know knows what he did was wrong, you know, 326 00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:07,040 Speaker 2: and he had bad influences growing up all of this. 327 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:10,480 Speaker 2: Knows what he did was wrong, but did it anyway. 328 00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:15,200 Speaker 2: Twenty nine minutes after five News Talk said b Ryan Bridge, 329 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:17,160 Speaker 2: We're going to get to Gavin Gray after the five 330 00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 2: thirty news and we're also talking about our homicide rate 331 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 2: with John Munroe, criminal defense lawyer.

Interesting. 341 00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:24,920 Speaker 2: We'll get to also Venezuela because the opposition leader has fled, 342 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:27,560 Speaker 2: he's gone to Spain. We'll find out why and what 343 00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:30,400 Speaker 2: exactly is going on there. I mean, the reason's pretty obvious. 344 00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:34,320 Speaker 2: Under Maduro in Venezuela not a place you want to 345 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:36,639 Speaker 2: be if you're an opposition politician. I would have thought 346 00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:40,320 Speaker 2: the demise of them more. Why did we did we? 347 00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:44,679 Speaker 2: You know, obviously killed it, off, ate it whatever, But 348 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 2: really its new report out this morning says it had 349 00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:56,120 Speaker 2: little hope because they mated infrequently, reproduced infrequently, and matured 350 00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:59,400 Speaker 2: quite late in life. So any small harvesting of them 351 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:03,440 Speaker 2: was basically the death now never stood a chance to 352 00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:06,320 Speaker 2: more never stood a chance. And they even had areas 353 00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 2: in New Zealand like we do with conservation areas today, 354 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:13,639 Speaker 2: large waves of the country where they weren't hunted and 355 00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:19,920 Speaker 2: poached and whatnot. Still wasn't enough for the big moa, 356 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:23,359 Speaker 2: who obviously didn't have much of a sex drive. Was 357 00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:26,160 Speaker 2: there big problem? I think? Twenty two away from six 358 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:29,560 Speaker 2: Bryan Bridge going to our reporters around the country. Color 359 00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:34,160 Speaker 2: Proctor is in Dunedin this morning. Calum the vegetation fire 360 00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 2: that's been going. They're being handed back the site back 361 00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:39,800 Speaker 2: to landowners. Your morning, Ryan. 362 00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:43,159 Speaker 7: This is eight hundred hectares of Whiteitucky farmland, tussck and 363 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:47,120 Speaker 7: scrub that burned over the weekend. It started Friday, you'll 364 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:50,720 Speaker 7: remember before. It was contained late yesterday. In fact, it's 365 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:54,880 Speaker 7: been monitored overnight and will be reassessed this morning. Seven crews, 366 00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:57,680 Speaker 7: six helicopters of fixed wing aircraft used at the peak 367 00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:00,840 Speaker 7: of displaze. A fine emergency. I hope to hand over 368 00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:04,520 Speaker 7: the property back around lunchtime. Incident Commander Bobby Lamonts has 369 00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 7: compared to previous fire seasons, thus seeing some early fire starts, 370 00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:12,400 Speaker 7: which isn't surprising given the dry winter that Otago's had. 371 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:15,280 Speaker 2: It is early, isn't it. Hey weather today speaking of 372 00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:16,920 Speaker 2: Cullum yet few. 373 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:19,680 Speaker 7: Spots of lake rain this afternoon for Dneeda and strong 374 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:21,720 Speaker 7: northerly today in eighteen Thank you. 375 00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:25,120 Speaker 2: Claire Sherwood is in christ just this morning. Clear farming 376 00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:29,639 Speaker 2: of the edges of nature reserves good or bad bad. 377 00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:32,720 Speaker 9: According to the study by scientists sat Monarchi Fenoua, which 378 00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:36,080 Speaker 9: is Land Care Research. Ryan, They've found that a spillover 379 00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:40,040 Speaker 9: of nutrients and water from these farming areas or intensive 380 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 9: agriculture is actually facilitating exotic plant invasions in our native reserves. 381 00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:48,359 Speaker 9: The authors of this study say the ongoing effects of 382 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:52,119 Speaker 9: more intensive land use adjacent to reserves could be better 383 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:54,719 Speaker 9: managed with the use of buffers, but that is a 384 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:57,240 Speaker 9: problem in smaller reserves which are too small to do 385 00:20:57,359 --> 00:20:59,960 Speaker 9: that on. They also say that while this study specific 386 00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:03,000 Speaker 9: looked at the Canterbury Plains, there are lessons for the 387 00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:06,119 Speaker 9: likes of Mackenzie Basin, which has large areas of dry 388 00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:10,280 Speaker 9: land indigenous vegetation that are also at risk from irrigation. 389 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:12,200 Speaker 2: And how's your weather today? 390 00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:14,600 Speaker 9: Clear mainly find a bit of high cloud at time. 391 00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:17,280 Speaker 9: Northerly's strong and the high will be eighteen. 392 00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:19,560 Speaker 2: Thank you, you have a good day.

It means some birthing rooms will be 398 00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:42,639 Speaker 6: temporarily closed to replace these copper pipes. Leaving pregnant women 399 00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:46,919 Speaker 6: having to share their share rooms having their labor induced 400 00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:49,240 Speaker 6: next to one another. A good story in the Herald 401 00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:51,439 Speaker 6: this morning, which cites a letter from Health and Z 402 00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 6: warning expectant mums in the region this will be the 403 00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:58,199 Speaker 6: case the birthing sweet and the maternity ward expected to 404 00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 6: be disrupted for about a year, so you're going to 405 00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:03,920 Speaker 6: have trades people drilling clanging around from time to time. 406 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:08,040 Speaker 6: Health and Z though, assuring people that these trades people 407 00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:10,360 Speaker 6: are used to working in the hospital and they will 408 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:12,400 Speaker 6: be sensitive to the needs of patience. 409 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:17,400 Speaker 2: Goodness me, it sounds like an absolute nightmare.

No, definitely not in Wellington anyway. I just 416 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:41,879 Speaker 2: love Mex. Not a good time to be pregnant in 417 00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:43,880 Speaker 2: Wellington at the moment, but. 418 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:47,399 Speaker 5: He says it, so yeah, it's funny. 419 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:50,200 Speaker 2: And Auckland, though, we have the restoration of a much 420 00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:51,320 Speaker 2: loved sign is. 421 00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:54,119 Speaker 5: Do you know the sign you would have seen at Penmure. 422 00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:57,320 Speaker 5: So what's happened is that a local Auckland board now 423 00:22:57,320 --> 00:22:59,600 Speaker 5: it's brought in a consultant. This is to help with 424 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:01,760 Speaker 5: the restoration of a much loved sign. So this is 425 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:05,320 Speaker 5: the fifteen meter tall pan Meua sign in Auckland's east 426 00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:08,800 Speaker 5: and it was taken down. It's that teal colored never sign. 427 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:09,439 Speaker 2: Have you not? 428 00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 3: Oh? 429 00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:12,480 Speaker 5: Oh you have not loved? Well, look it was taken 430 00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:15,240 Speaker 5: down in twenty nineteen. That's probably maybe why you didn't 431 00:23:15,280 --> 00:23:17,399 Speaker 5: see it because it was part of road refurbishments. But 432 00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 5: the mungakik Tamaki Local Board says that Auckland Transport gave 433 00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:24,760 Speaker 5: the board two hundred and fifty thousand. Now this was 434 00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:27,959 Speaker 5: to determine the future of the sign. Board chair Maria 435 00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:29,960 Speaker 5: Mirita says that the money has decided what to do 436 00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:33,080 Speaker 5: with the sign, but it's not going to cover the construction. 437 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:37,320 Speaker 5: So but everybody knows that sign. It's it's very retro. 438 00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:39,600 Speaker 2: I'm looking at it's like something out of Vegas. It's 439 00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 2: a tall fifteen meter high Hi. 440 00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:44,720 Speaker 5: Yes, I I think the last time I was in 441 00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:47,080 Speaker 5: pen mewa must have been in twenty eighteen because the sign. 442 00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:49,200 Speaker 5: I saw the sign and then we were talking about 443 00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:50,439 Speaker 5: it and they said, well, the sign came down in 444 00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:52,639 Speaker 5: twenty nineteen. I thought, well that would have been the 445 00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:53,240 Speaker 5: last time. 446 00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:55,479 Speaker 2: But where if they put the sign net? 447 00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:58,080 Speaker 5: Well, it's just kind of just yeah, they've taken it 448 00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:00,600 Speaker 5: down because it was round and roundabout. So now they've 449 00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:02,119 Speaker 5: done all the roadworks. 450 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:03,359 Speaker 2: And it's so it's resting somewhere. 451 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:04,680 Speaker 5: And it's resting somewhere. 452 00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:06,320 Speaker 2: Because you said they need to construct it. I mean 453 00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:08,800 Speaker 2: it's already constructed, doesn't it Just put it back up just. 454 00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:11,400 Speaker 5: Well, I mean, you know, depend how many bolts need 455 00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:12,120 Speaker 5: to be put on there. 456 00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:15,000 Speaker 2: We don't want another pylon.

But it would appear that 485 00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:48,040 Speaker 10: I'm afraid. In Glasgow, Scotland, more anti racism protesters meeted 486 00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:52,280 Speaker 10: and greeted more anti immigration demonstrators in what became a 487 00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:55,919 Speaker 10: pretty tense standoff trying to keep those two groups separated. 488 00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:59,680 Speaker 10: Police briefly drew their batons and shouted at the protesters 489 00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:03,240 Speaker 10: to get away, with two people arrested during the protests, 490 00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:07,200 Speaker 10: but there were pretty unpleasant scenes in and around George Square. 491 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 10: So what happened was two to three thousand people joined 492 00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:14,960 Speaker 10: an anti racism rally, but about three hundred and fifty 493 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:18,199 Speaker 10: people were at a rival demonstration calling on the government 494 00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:21,719 Speaker 10: to get much tougher on those coming across illegally on 495 00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:24,680 Speaker 10: the small boats. And then a group of mass men 496 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:27,720 Speaker 10: believe to be a sort of ultra group of Celtic 497 00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:31,119 Speaker 10: football fans, a so called Green Brigade, had to be 498 00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:34,399 Speaker 10: contained in a corner of the square as they believed 499 00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:38,280 Speaker 10: they were sort of coming up behind the anti racism group. 500 00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:40,560 Speaker 10: But at one point a man brandishing what appeared to 501 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:43,479 Speaker 10: be two sticks, rushing towards the square was grabbed by 502 00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:46,240 Speaker 10: police and bundled into the back of a van. With 503 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:49,760 Speaker 10: the barriers trying to keep the two groups of demonstrators 504 00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:53,080 Speaker 10: apart at one point being overwhelmed. But anyway, police I 505 00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:56,960 Speaker 10: think would be pretty keen that it passed off reasonably peacefully. 506 00:26:57,240 --> 00:27:00,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, sounds like I remember Gonzales, the Venezuela and opposition 507 00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:02,440 Speaker 2: leader presidential candidate. 508 00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:06,520 Speaker 10: He has fled to Spain, Yes, and that is because 509 00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:09,919 Speaker 10: a Spanish air Force plane carrying him landed in an 510 00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:13,280 Speaker 10: airbase in Madrid. He's going to be granted political asylum there. 511 00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:16,800 Speaker 10: He's been hiding in Venezuela because there's been a warrant 512 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:21,360 Speaker 10: for his arrest issued. After the opposition disputed the presidential 513 00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:25,120 Speaker 10: election result back in July that saw the incumbent Nicolas 514 00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:29,080 Speaker 10: Maduro handed a third term. There are thoughts that he, 515 00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:33,399 Speaker 10: mister Nozales, felt for his life, frankly fed for his life, 516 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:39,400 Speaker 10: and other opposition organizers are saying that the Maduro administration 517 00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:43,880 Speaker 10: has unleashed a brutal wave of repression following the election. 518 00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:48,400 Speaker 10: Now many people are questioning the election results, which Nicholas 519 00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:52,400 Speaker 10: Maduro said that he won easily, but some are saying, look, 520 00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:56,040 Speaker 10: we'll publish the voting tallies. There's international pressure for him 521 00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:59,480 Speaker 10: to do that. They simply do not believe the scores 522 00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:02,800 Speaker 10: that have come out of these votes, and countries including 523 00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 10: the US, the European Union, the majority of foreign governors 524 00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:10,320 Speaker 10: refusing to accept Nicholas Maduro as a winner without Caracas 525 00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:12,200 Speaker 10: releasing that voting data. 526 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:14,840 Speaker 2: Gavin, thank you for that, Kevin Gray are UK europe 527 00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:18,440 Speaker 2: correspond interestingly, a lot of people questioning that result, of course, 528 00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:21,040 Speaker 2: when you've got a dictator like Maduro in charge. But 529 00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:24,040 Speaker 2: the Venezuelans I think will vote with their feet, more 530 00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:27,000 Speaker 2: of them. So in the past ten years, the JDP 531 00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:31,000 Speaker 2: in Venezuela has dropped eighty percent in just ten years, 532 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 2: and seven million people have immigrated out of there. This 533 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:37,119 Speaker 2: is a country of just twenty eight million people. So 534 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:39,760 Speaker 2: you'd have to say, with more problems and the opposition 535 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:42,880 Speaker 2: leader having to flee, more of them will do the same. 536 00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:46,800 Speaker 2: And then what does that create border issues for the US. 537 00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:50,880 Speaker 2: I'm sure something that will be discussed in the debate 538 00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:54,520 Speaker 2: that is coming with Harris and Trump. On Wednesday ten 539 00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 2: to six, Bryan Bridge, there's been eleven homicides in New 540 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,240 Speaker 2: Zealand just over a month and people are free kicking 541 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:02,280 Speaker 2: out a little bit, at least some in the media are. 542 00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:05,040 Speaker 2: I suppose the latest was on Saturday night when a 543 00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:08,240 Speaker 2: man was dropped off at Kaitaia Hospital with serious injuries, 544 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 2: later dying as a result. The annual police homicide report 545 00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:15,400 Speaker 2: released in June says New Zealand averages seventy two deaths 546 00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:18,760 Speaker 2: by homicide per year. John Munroe is a criminal defense lawyer. 547 00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:22,080 Speaker 2: He's with us this morning, John, Good morning, Good morning man. 548 00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:25,040 Speaker 2: Just a spike, random, nothing to worry about. 549 00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:29,160 Speaker 3: Well, it's look, it could be. Who knows that, it 550 00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:32,280 Speaker 3: does seem at the moment, especially to be reading the 551 00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:36,400 Speaker 3: media and seeing a lot of homicides taking place more 552 00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:37,880 Speaker 3: recently than normal. 553 00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:40,080 Speaker 8: Who knows what it is from. 554 00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:44,280 Speaker 3: But a good criminologist would say there's many, many reasons 555 00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 3: for spikes and homicides. 556 00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:49,640 Speaker 2: I guess you can't you look at a trend, right, 557 00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:51,520 Speaker 2: You have to look at a trend if you're looking 558 00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:54,960 Speaker 2: at policies and things around it. In the short term, though, 559 00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:58,640 Speaker 2: for police having such a large case load, did they 560 00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:00,920 Speaker 2: have the you know, are they probably resourced to be 561 00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:02,920 Speaker 2: able to look into all of those things? 562 00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:08,760 Speaker 3: Well, I'm sure they're stretched, but but I suppose the 563 00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:10,920 Speaker 3: promising thing is that we have a very very good 564 00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:15,200 Speaker 3: police force. They're very well equipped, they're good police, they're 565 00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:20,880 Speaker 3: they're they're competent, and certainly from from practicing in myself 566 00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:23,440 Speaker 3: in other areas of the of the world, New Zealand 567 00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:25,840 Speaker 3: would have to be rating it among once one of 568 00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:28,200 Speaker 3: the better ones in the in the world in the 569 00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:29,560 Speaker 3: criminal justice system as well. 570 00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:32,320 Speaker 2: Do you think people should be worried when they see 571 00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:35,200 Speaker 2: spikes like this? I mean, people inevitably do, but the 572 00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 2: reality is you're you're most likely to be killed by 573 00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:41,560 Speaker 2: somebody that you that you know, right, it's not randoms 574 00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 2: going out killing randoms. 575 00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:45,080 Speaker 8: That's right. 576 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:48,040 Speaker 3: It's it's it's very raally some sort of cross fire 577 00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 3: or machine gun fire, pet someone getting the public getting 578 00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:54,560 Speaker 3: hit in the street. It's very very rare to see 579 00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:58,720 Speaker 3: that sort of thing happen. So, you know, generally speaking, 580 00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:01,320 Speaker 3: like you say, the publica are still safe. 581 00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:05,160 Speaker 2: You said you'd worked in the UK before. Do we 582 00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:09,360 Speaker 2: have like in terms of international comparisons, we do quite well. 583 00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:11,600 Speaker 2: Not that it's something you do well at obviously, but 584 00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:14,040 Speaker 2: we have what I should says, we have a relatively 585 00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:15,640 Speaker 2: low homicide rate here, don't we. 586 00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:19,960 Speaker 3: Yes, we do, we do, compare to I've worked in 587 00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:21,640 Speaker 3: the UK, but I haven't worked in the US. But 588 00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:25,120 Speaker 3: if you look at the US, you know that's catastrophic. 589 00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:28,000 Speaker 3: And we have a really good system of justice as well. 590 00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:30,160 Speaker 3: So we have a good system of police catching people, 591 00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:32,760 Speaker 3: and we have a really good system of justice and 592 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:37,360 Speaker 3: dealing with people as well. So I think overall, even 593 00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:39,520 Speaker 3: though I can't put a positive spin on it, at 594 00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:41,760 Speaker 3: least we have those good systems in place. 595 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:45,160 Speaker 2: Thanks so much for that. John John Munroe, criminal defense lawyer, 596 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:48,040 Speaker 2: eight minutes away from six ran Bridge. So we had 597 00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:51,440 Speaker 2: seventy two homicides in a year that was last year, 598 00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:55,360 Speaker 2: and only a third of those are murders, So that's 599 00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:59,640 Speaker 2: somebody you know, intentionally going out and killing. So that's 600 00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:02,560 Speaker 2: about twenty four murders in New Zealand over a year. 601 00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:06,920 Speaker 2: And then you think about of those it was potentially 602 00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:10,680 Speaker 2: gang related or people who knew someone. Domestic violence is 603 00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:14,760 Speaker 2: sadly another terrible blight on these numbers. But you start 604 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:16,360 Speaker 2: to whittle it down and you say, do I need 605 00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:18,400 Speaker 2: to be Do I really need to be worried about 606 00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:21,320 Speaker 2: being murdered in New Zealand? You know, by a random 607 00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:25,360 Speaker 2: on the street.
