Welcome 12 00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:36,040 Speaker 2: to the day, seven past six. Looks like the adults 13 00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:37,960 Speaker 2: have arrived in the room, Thank goodness, and what history 14 00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:40,280 Speaker 2: will show was one of the more alarming of many 15 00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:42,640 Speaker 2: alarming moves made by the Labour government of twenty seventeen 16 00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:45,720 Speaker 2: through twenty twenty, more specifically twenty twenty through twenty twenty three, 17 00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:48,040 Speaker 2: was the idea that if you didn't have a job, 18 00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:50,320 Speaker 2: we could pretend that we wanted you to get one, 19 00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:53,120 Speaker 2: but if you didn't get one, nothing really happened. It 20 00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:54,960 Speaker 2: was sort of based on a similar line of thinking 21 00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:56,800 Speaker 2: that if you let a lot of people out of jail, 22 00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:00,400 Speaker 2: they'd be grateful and turn into good citizens. The job's 23 00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:03,520 Speaker 2: madness manifested itself when the borders were closed, of course, 24 00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:06,240 Speaker 2: and lord knows how many people would needed for basically everything, 25 00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:09,440 Speaker 2: where employers all over the country were screaming out for workers, 26 00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:11,600 Speaker 2: and there they were a couple hundred thousand of them. 27 00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:14,560 Speaker 2: But miraculously those without a job couldn't seem to be 28 00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:16,520 Speaker 2: connected to those who wanted to give them money for 29 00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:18,920 Speaker 2: turning up to do one. What made it more mad 30 00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 2: was the term job seeker was a specific title given 31 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 2: to those who were assessed as being work ready, as 32 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 2: in ready to work. New day, new government. While they 33 00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:31,720 Speaker 2: saw all this for what it was, implemented the traffic 34 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:34,520 Speaker 2: light system. You get to read your benefits cut now. 35 00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:36,760 Speaker 2: The people who didn't mind you not having to not 36 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:39,399 Speaker 2: work didn't like that. They thought it was mean. Well, 37 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:41,600 Speaker 2: new data, not en up data to call it a 38 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,480 Speaker 2: fix or a solution, but certainly enough to suggest it's 39 00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 2: working and we're on our way back to normalcy. In August, 40 00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:50,880 Speaker 2: the number of unemployed who failed to make their obligations ie. 41 00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:53,200 Speaker 2: Turn up, have an interview, get out of bed, make 42 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,560 Speaker 2: an effort. Were seven four hundred and ninety one astonishing 43 00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:59,280 Speaker 2: to think that even when there's a threat, there are 44 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 2: still people who can be bothered anyway, That number's gone 45 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 2: down for six nine hundred and seventy five. Actual sanctions 46 00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:08,360 Speaker 2: have dropped also, from two hundred and sixty eight to 47 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 2: forty six hundred and sixty two, both moving in the 48 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 2: right directions. Still too many shirkers, of course, But the 49 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:17,320 Speaker 2: lesson here is people, sadly, if given enough rope, seem 50 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 2: to want to hang themselves. Some people are just bludges 51 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:22,520 Speaker 2: and they need to get that there are consequences. So 52 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:26,680 Speaker 2: let's hold out for ensuing month's data. But fingers crossed, 53 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:29,320 Speaker 2: it looks like a bit of tough love is working. 54 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:34,520 Speaker 1: Who would have thought, why news of the world in 55 00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 1: ninety seconds? 56 00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 2: Oh us? Have you not up with us? Have piled 57 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 2: pressure on Israel and told them to basically get it 58 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 2: together in the aid department in Gaza or else the 59 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 2: fly of weapons might be an issue. UK tend to agree. 60 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:49,680 Speaker 3: Families in Gaza are facing a second winter with even 61 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:57,920 Speaker 3: less resilience and fewer resources. This is unconscionable. Israel must 62 00:02:58,040 --> 00:02:59,360 Speaker 3: comply fully. 63 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 2: There's also another Emergency Security Council meeting a lot that 64 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:04,239 Speaker 2: Altric's wearing a bit thin. 65 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:09,119 Speaker 4: This council has an important role to play. But ultimately, 66 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 4: as I have said previously, actions on the ground, more 67 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:16,640 Speaker 4: than discussions here in New York are what will bring 68 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 4: real progress. 69 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:20,120 Speaker 2: As far as the U. As Rice goes, Donald has 70 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:22,359 Speaker 2: stopped swaying to the music and set down to talk 71 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 2: to the women of Georgia. 72 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 5: The border was the safest it ever was in the 73 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 5: history of our country. We had the fewest number of people, 74 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:33,080 Speaker 5: we have the least amount of drugs. Everything was human trafficking, 75 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 5: which is now twelve times higher than it was. And 76 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:39,839 Speaker 5: it's trafficking, I hate to say this, mostly in women. 77 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:42,119 Speaker 2: But also in Georgia. And judge is ruled on hand 78 00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 2: counting ballots. This is seen as a win for the Deans. 79 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 6: We're seeing a lot of success by these plaintiffs in Georgia, 80 00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 6: and the judicial branch there seems to have absolutely no 81 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:54,279 Speaker 6: patients for these chananigans. 82 00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:57,480 Speaker 2: In Britain, specifically Newcastle, we have another of these houses 83 00:03:57,480 --> 00:03:58,520 Speaker 2: that's gone and blown up. 84 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,840 Speaker 7: We are working with our partners under Community to ensure 85 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 7: all those who may have been in the area at 86 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 7: the time off say. An investigation is ongoing to establish 87 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:11,680 Speaker 7: how the explosion occurred. 88 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 2: Seven year old boys did, six injured and more proof 89 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:16,080 Speaker 2: nuclear is back and we should really get on board 90 00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:18,400 Speaker 2: with us. By the way, Amazon like Oracle are going 91 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:21,840 Speaker 2: to drive their data centers using nuclear power. And guess 92 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 2: who was first to read this trend. 93 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:25,479 Speaker 8: China absolutely has the edge. 94 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 9: They built seventy two nuclear reactors in the last decade, 95 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 9: in the same span that the planet ju in Georgia 96 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 9: and one in Europe. 97 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 2: Finally, office worker in Leeds has won a compensation or 98 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:42,919 Speaker 2: some compensation after her recruitment boss refused to say hello 99 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,640 Speaker 2: to her three times when she arrived at Wich. So 100 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 2: this is the Leeds employment tribunals found. It was all 101 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:50,480 Speaker 2: part of the scheme to force the woman out. It said, 102 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:53,200 Speaker 2: while not saying hello was not fundamentally a breach to 103 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:56,239 Speaker 2: the contract, it was a contributing factor to a breach 104 00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:59,600 Speaker 2: and if it continued, was likely to undermine trust and confidence. 105 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 2: They yet to figure out what sort of conversation you 106 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 2: get where nobody says. 107 00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 8: Hello to you? 108 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:06,400 Speaker 2: News of the world in ninety. Not good in the 109 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 2: airline industry at the moment, so you can't get a 110 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:11,160 Speaker 2: plane for love nor money. Boeing of course announced huge 111 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 2: layoffs this week because that mar their people are on 112 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 2: strike anyway. Airbus obernight, they're cutting two and a half 113 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:19,720 Speaker 2: thousand jobs. That's mainly in defense and space. But nevertheless, 114 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:21,039 Speaker 2: if you take that two and a half and add 115 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:24,599 Speaker 2: the seventeen thousand that bowing, there's twenty thousand jobs in 116 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:29,160 Speaker 2: aviation just this week and it's only Thursday, twelve past six. 117 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 1: The Mic Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered 118 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:36,600 Speaker 1: by News. 119 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 2: Talks ab Nikola willis after seven on hour. Inflation rate 120 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 2: Thailand Central Bank overnight. Those surprised everybody. They cut their 121 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:45,200 Speaker 2: cash rate twenty five points down to two point two five. 122 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 2: No one saw that coming. But on the inflation front, 123 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 2: it's crashed in the UK and that will mean the 124 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 2: b B is definitely going to move next month. There 125 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:54,039 Speaker 2: was some sort of question mark as to whether they 126 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 2: would or not, but I think this is sealed it now. 127 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:59,279 Speaker 2: It's gone down to one point seven in September, everyone 128 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:02,479 Speaker 2: thought about one point nine core inflation three point two 129 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 2: pounder is down, so we'll stand by for their move. 130 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:09,800 Speaker 2: Fifteen past the money j my loved Andrew Keller had 131 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:12,840 Speaker 2: good morning, very good morning, Mike. You important the point 132 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 2: and not only came down, so we went yeah, but 133 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 2: at the lower end, wasn't it. That's right? 134 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:20,640 Speaker 10: So do we celebrate? I mean, is it too early 135 00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 10: to celebrate? Is the job done? I mean, I suppose 136 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:26,240 Speaker 10: there's quite a lot of questions that come out of yesterday. 137 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 8: So just the CPI released. 138 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:31,640 Speaker 10: For Q three zero point six for the quarter, two 139 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:33,839 Speaker 10: point two percent for the year. 140 00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 8: Do you remember what the Reserve Bank said as well? 141 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:39,800 Speaker 10: They said that inflation is clearly converging on the mid point, 142 00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:42,440 Speaker 10: and so it is, and that's the one to three 143 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 10: percent ban the mid point, is it two? That's the 144 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 10: job the RBNZ has, and it is clearly converging there 145 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 10: non tradeable inflation one point three percent, that's sitting at 146 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 10: four point nine percent for the year, tradeable inflation minus 147 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,679 Speaker 10: zero point two and now sitting up minus one point 148 00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:02,680 Speaker 10: six percent for the year. Now expectationsidering one point seven 149 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,440 Speaker 10: point eight. So the this was to the bottom side. 150 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:09,320 Speaker 10: That was courtesy of lower non tradeable inflations. People were 151 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 10: thinking that was going to be around one and a half, 152 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 10: came in at one point three. Now there was a 153 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 10: mitigating factor of a twenty two point eight percent fall 154 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:20,080 Speaker 10: in early childhood education fees. That was a result of 155 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 10: the introduction of the government subsidy that really helps your outcome. 156 00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:25,680 Speaker 10: It gets you to one point three. Without that the 157 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 10: year on, you could have been closer to five point two. 158 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 10: So it wort to push the whole all of the 159 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 10: numbers up, But there were other offsets to that. So 160 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:35,080 Speaker 10: you got those fees, you've got lower fuel prices. They 161 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:36,840 Speaker 10: pulled the outcome down, and then the other side the 162 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:41,280 Speaker 10: usual suspects, higher insurance costs, local authority rates, prescription charges. 163 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 10: But there's no escaping the observation that inflation pressures are moderating. 164 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 10: Just to quick note, annual tradeable inflation. You look at 165 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 10: that and you go, my gosh, it's at minus one 166 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 10: point six. It's really negative. No, Historically we've had extended 167 00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:59,080 Speaker 10: periods of negative tradeable inflations. Not unusual, it's the non 168 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:04,040 Speaker 10: tradable consistently been problematic. I guess the question is what 169 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 10: happens from here? Because there is no you cannot escape 170 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 10: the risk now that inflation falls below two percent, that 171 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 10: we undershoot the target. 172 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 8: Now, that suggests to me. 173 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:18,520 Speaker 10: That the RBNZ should continue to move quickly to normalize 174 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:21,880 Speaker 10: the official crash rate. Now the really relevant question here, though, 175 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 10: is how far do they go? I mean, what's the bottom, 176 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 10: what's the target? What's the neutral rate, the rate that 177 00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:31,120 Speaker 10: doesn't contribute to inflation. Is it three point seventy five? 178 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:32,840 Speaker 10: Is it three and a half, three and a quarter 179 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 10: three percent? We don't really know that. So that's a 180 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 10: question that's got to be answered. The second one is 181 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 10: do they go fifty or seventy five basis points in November? 182 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:43,560 Speaker 10: And here's a question for you, Mike, would a seventy 183 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 10: five basis point move Yes? 184 00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:46,840 Speaker 8: So tacit admission. 185 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:50,680 Speaker 10: Absolutely, the OCI was pushed up too far, too fast 186 00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:51,720 Speaker 10: and kept there for too long. 187 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 8: That's a question you have to ask. 188 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:57,200 Speaker 10: Really interesting if you look at the forward market, Mike, 189 00:08:57,280 --> 00:08:59,200 Speaker 10: you look at where the market price is, where it 190 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:02,000 Speaker 10: thinks the OCO will be on the next Ohcer review date. 191 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 8: That yesterday, at the close of yesterday was trading at four. 192 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 10: Point one, which means that the odds are slightly tipped 193 00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 10: in favor or slightly tipping towards seventy five basis points 194 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:14,440 Speaker 10: not the fifty. 195 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:16,240 Speaker 8: Market reaction quite muted. 196 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:18,680 Speaker 10: Mike Wholso, rates said, fall a little bit, but they'd 197 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:19,600 Speaker 10: been lower recently. 198 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 8: KEIW slightly lower. Share market didn't like it though. 199 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:24,679 Speaker 10: On the face of it, it was down to over 200 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 10: one and a half percent, but I think that was 201 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 10: to do with a few other stock specific factors, not 202 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:30,400 Speaker 10: so much the inflation rate. 203 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:31,199 Speaker 8: Fascinating day. 204 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 2: Do this The other question you need to ask if 205 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:37,840 Speaker 2: seventy five is tantamount to admission of fault, do you 206 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:40,800 Speaker 2: still do the right thing because you know you cocked 207 00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 2: it up? 208 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:43,800 Speaker 8: Well, you have to, I mean you have to play 209 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:46,320 Speaker 8: what's in front of you.

Now it's the big question. 217 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 10: The big conundrum is how quickly do those easier monch prinstance, 218 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:08,000 Speaker 10: those lower ocr How quickly did that affect larger economy. 219 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:09,560 Speaker 8: Some interesting comments in here, Mike. 220 00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 10: Firstly, we've been talking about with this confirmational reference to 221 00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 10: the shorter duration of the fixed rate loan landscape, that 222 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 10: implies faster transmission of policy. 223 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 8: To low mortgage rates her words. 224 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 10: Our latest new credit flow survey shows it around seventy 225 00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 10: five percent of new home loans carry introspirence with one 226 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 10: ur or less and circuit seventy percent of existing home 227 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:32,680 Speaker 10: loans will be repriced within the next nine months. So 228 00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:34,559 Speaker 10: if you get the OCR down, you pull down the 229 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 10: one two year wholesale rates that flows straight through to 230 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 10: all those new fixed. 231 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 8: Rate loan terms.

They couldn't do it in Britain, but they 342 00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:07,320 Speaker 2: can in Italy. We'll get the update on that shortly 343 00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:10,200 Speaker 2: back this morning, though, of the business of gouging for 344 00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:12,880 Speaker 2: outdoor dining, numbers are flying all over the place, from 345 00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:15,000 Speaker 2: one hundred and sixty dollars a square meter to a 346 00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:17,240 Speaker 2: couple of hundred dollars a square meter, and depending on 347 00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 2: how you look at the numbers, means they could be paying. 348 00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:21,080 Speaker 2: It was claimed yesterday on the program up fifty one 349 00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:23,560 Speaker 2: thousand dollars a year, which is a fifteen hundred percent increase. 350 00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 2: So what's going on. This is specifically in Queenstown, and 351 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 2: the mayor is Glenn Lewis. Who Glenn Lewis, Who is 352 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:31,240 Speaker 2: with us? Glenn morning, Good morning, Mike. Now, I don't 353 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 2: want to get bogged down in a singular story about 354 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:34,760 Speaker 2: how many meters and how many dollars and stuff, But 355 00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:38,880 Speaker 2: broadly speaking, one, you charge for outdoor dining. Two you're 356 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:41,280 Speaker 2: charging more for outdoor dining. Is that true? 357 00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:46,960 Speaker 14: Yes, Why we've we've never looked we've never increased rates 358 00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:49,040 Speaker 14: since two thousand and six. We looked at it in 359 00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:53,040 Speaker 14: twenty nineteen. Going from as you say, you won sixty 360 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:56,239 Speaker 14: to six hundred dollars a square meter on the Queenstown 361 00:16:56,320 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 14: Late Front. We pause it during COVID, it's now twenty two, 362 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:02,560 Speaker 14: twenty four, two years past COVID, and we're picked it 363 00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:04,080 Speaker 14: up in implementing it. 364 00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:05,879 Speaker 2: Now, where do you get the six hundred from? Is 365 00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:08,159 Speaker 2: that a number plug from the air now? 366 00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:13,240 Speaker 14: Now, it's thirty percent of the retail of the rental 367 00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:15,480 Speaker 14: rate of the Queen's Town CBD. 368 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:18,280 Speaker 2: But that's a number plate from the yeir. That's thirty percent, 369 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:20,320 Speaker 2: sixty percent. It's just a number that you guys come 370 00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:22,120 Speaker 2: up with, you think, and. 371 00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:24,320 Speaker 14: That's not what we come up with. It's a standard 372 00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:27,800 Speaker 14: industry practice. It's the same number that christ Church uses 373 00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:30,159 Speaker 14: and that's what we've gone with. 374 00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:33,000 Speaker 2: Ah, that's interesting. So I asked yesterday whether the variability 375 00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:35,359 Speaker 2: they seem to suggest there was. You're suggesting there's a 376 00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:38,520 Speaker 2: bog standard. This is what councils charge around the country 377 00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:40,320 Speaker 2: if you want to have tables outdoors. 378 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:42,720 Speaker 14: That's the advice we've got, yes, right. 379 00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:44,159 Speaker 2: Is it a money grab? 380 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:48,920 Speaker 14: No, it's a reflection of the market rates. And look, 381 00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:53,440 Speaker 14: this is the Queenstown Lakefront. This is the iconic parist 382 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:58,200 Speaker 14: spot in the country. Hosts thirty percent of the international 383 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:02,240 Speaker 14: visitors that received so no, I don't think it is 384 00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 14: a pross grand and. 385 00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:05,880 Speaker 2: The individual is claiming fifty one grand. That once again 386 00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:08,280 Speaker 2: without going into too much detail, that's a back pay 387 00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:10,720 Speaker 2: and numbers were done wrong. Is that right? 388 00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:11,679 Speaker 8: Roughly? 389 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:15,680 Speaker 14: Yes, that's increasing an increase in area being charged as well. 390 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:18,480 Speaker 2: Okay, So we then come to the cracks of the 391 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:21,720 Speaker 2: problem with is it fair and are you killing business 392 00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:23,440 Speaker 2: at a time when business is struggling. 393 00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:28,920 Speaker 14: Look, we've had many outdoor dining businesses come to us 394 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:32,240 Speaker 14: wanting to increase the area even with the increase in rates, 395 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:35,240 Speaker 14: and others that want to take the opportunity to decrease 396 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:39,880 Speaker 14: the area just because it helps manage staff easier. So look, 397 00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:42,880 Speaker 14: I don't think we're killing outdoor dining. I think there's 398 00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:44,440 Speaker 14: just probably a rare adjustment. 399 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:46,720 Speaker 2: For some your debt. How much do you own Queenstown? 400 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:51,000 Speaker 14: Jeez, we're about seven hundred million. After the ten year plan, 401 00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:55,119 Speaker 14: we come to one point two billion year. This is 402 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 14: the outcome of a very fast growing region. 403 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:03,000 Speaker 2: Geez, one point two billion on a rating base of 404 00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:06,240 Speaker 2: what does that put you on the leach of credibility? 405 00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:10,280 Speaker 14: Now I will grow from thirty six thousand rate payer 406 00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 14: base to forty two over the ten years. Now, this 407 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:16,320 Speaker 14: is what happens when you've got double the visitor load 408 00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:21,359 Speaker 14: to actual residents. We're having to design and build for 409 00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:24,160 Speaker 14: twice as many people. Then what extra lives here? 410 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:26,080 Speaker 2: What do you pay for debt servicing each year? 411 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:34,880 Speaker 14: Our average weighted annual interest rate is now five point six. 412 00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 2: But in Doris, what do you pay as a bill? 413 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:41,200 Speaker 14: Oh, you should be at one hundred million, I'd say. 414 00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:42,119 Speaker 2: Just an interest payment? 415 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:43,000 Speaker 15: Yep. 416 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:45,520 Speaker 2: Wow, what's your rating increase? This year? 417 00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 14: It was fifteen point six on averriadge. 418 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:51,280 Speaker 2: And that's gone down the treat. 419 00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 14: Has it, of course? You know, just imagine how well 420 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:56,960 Speaker 14: that's gone down there Mic jeez. 421 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:01,879 Speaker 2: Arra yesterday. And the reason the inflation number and the 422 00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:04,240 Speaker 2: non tradable number was so bad is because guys like 423 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:06,920 Speaker 2: you go around charging people fifteen percent more each year. 424 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:07,880 Speaker 13: Yeah. 425 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:11,960 Speaker 14: Well, when you break it down, it's insurance, interest traits 426 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:16,119 Speaker 14: and reevaluation and depreciation on assets that we actually going already. 427 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:19,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, although having said all that, you're one of the lucky. 428 00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:21,919 Speaker 2: I think you're one of the lucky regions in the country. 429 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:25,040 Speaker 2: You do have growth, your tourism is back. Things do 430 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 2: seem to be bubbling nicely and you're one of the 431 00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:28,680 Speaker 2: better places in that sense. 432 00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:31,520 Speaker 14: Oh yeah, look, I'd rather be in my position than 433 00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 14: many other councils I have.

Certainly a lot of concern about 490 00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:18,480 Speaker 17: the ongoing escalation as we're finding everywhere in the world 491 00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:19,000 Speaker 17: at the moment. 492 00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:19,240 Speaker 14: Now. 493 00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:22,000 Speaker 2: The s Albanian migrant business that you dreamed up, that 494 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:24,280 Speaker 2: they sort of dreamed up in Britain with Rwanda and 495 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:26,720 Speaker 2: then spent the rest of their life in court arguing 496 00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:28,560 Speaker 2: about it. How come you can come up with this 497 00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:32,080 Speaker 2: idea in Italy and make it happen and it doesn't 498 00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:34,240 Speaker 2: get bogged down by human rights lawyers in court, and 499 00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:35,520 Speaker 2: yet they couldn't do it in Britain. 500 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:39,239 Speaker 17: You know, I'm wondering if we might still see some 501 00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 17: kind of legal challenge, although I haven't seen any sign 502 00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:46,400 Speaker 17: of that yet. It's bizarre that the Italian Navy ship Libra, 503 00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:50,800 Speaker 17: which just arrived in Albania with the first sixteen migrants, 504 00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:55,960 Speaker 17: has traveled over fifty hours to get there, and you 505 00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:59,440 Speaker 17: think about the resources that are required just for sixteen migrants. 506 00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:01,480 Speaker 17: At the same time we've got a thousand migrants that 507 00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:03,159 Speaker 17: have landed on the island of Lampaduza. 508 00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:05,159 Speaker 2: Well that'll be optics, I suppose, won't it. But I 509 00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:07,560 Speaker 2: mean it was weird that Starmer comes to town. Remember 510 00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:09,399 Speaker 2: that couple of months ago. He goes, hey, listen, what 511 00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:10,679 Speaker 2: are you doing? How are you doing it? And I 512 00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:12,439 Speaker 2: would have said something like, well, just get on with 513 00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:14,720 Speaker 2: it and do it. Is it popular domestically? 514 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:19,960 Speaker 17: I think it's divisive domestically because the Italians are throwing 515 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:24,119 Speaker 17: six hundred million euros at the Albanians to make this happen. 516 00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 17: And one politician, for example, opponent estimated that the cost 517 00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:34,119 Speaker 17: for those sixteen migrants was around eighteen thousand euros for 518 00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:37,880 Speaker 17: each migrant to move them to Albania. So people are saying, 519 00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:39,960 Speaker 17: why aren't we spending the money in Italy to make 520 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:41,520 Speaker 17: the system work more effectively here? 521 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:44,239 Speaker 2: If an election were called tomorrow, would it be an 522 00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:46,040 Speaker 2: issue that you'd swing a boat on. 523 00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:47,400 Speaker 18: Look? 524 00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:50,440 Speaker 17: I think people still think Maloney's doing a good job 525 00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:53,680 Speaker 17: on immigration because, as she said herself yesterday in Parliament, 526 00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:57,480 Speaker 17: the numbers speak for themselves. The landings have decreased by 527 00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:01,719 Speaker 17: sixty percent compared to twenty twenty three, and that is 528 00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:04,800 Speaker 17: you know, that hits home with the Italian voters for now. 529 00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:08,320 Speaker 2: All right? And even though the Great Silvia is gone, 530 00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:10,639 Speaker 2: the poor old Bunga Bunger girls just are not left 531 00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:11,879 Speaker 2: to their own peace. 532 00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:17,040 Speaker 17: You wouldn't dream about it. Which are Italy's top court 533 00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:21,879 Speaker 17: on Monday overturn the acquittal of twenty three people accused 534 00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:25,639 Speaker 17: of taking bribes from the late Premier Silvio Berlusconi to 535 00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:30,880 Speaker 17: keep lying about the underage prostitution case. That means there's 536 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:33,040 Speaker 17: going to be a new court case, and the Bunga 537 00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:36,200 Speaker 17: Bunger girls are not very happy about that. One of 538 00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:39,200 Speaker 17: them said, this is completely unfair. Berlusconi is dead. Why 539 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:40,119 Speaker 17: am I on trial? 540 00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:43,119 Speaker 2: Are they still Bungamonger girls now that he's gone? Do 541 00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:45,679 Speaker 2: they bunga bonga still or are they retired? Bunga Bonger's 542 00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:46,240 Speaker 2: what happened to you? 543 00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:49,200 Speaker 17: I'm not sure how they make their money these days, 544 00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:52,320 Speaker 17: but they certainly seem to have done well during his 545 00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:53,200 Speaker 17: term of offers? 546 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:56,680 Speaker 2: Certainly? Did do you know? Another one of my random questions, 547 00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:58,480 Speaker 2: just to put you on the spot, what happened to 548 00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:00,879 Speaker 2: was villa? Did they sell that they fight over it 549 00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:02,080 Speaker 2: or what happened to her? 550 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:04,480 Speaker 17: I think it might still be up for sale? 551 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:09,560 Speaker 2: No way? Can you? Can you check the retail? I mean, 552 00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:11,000 Speaker 2: I'm not going to buy it. I don't have the money, 553 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:12,360 Speaker 2: but I mean, god, have you seen it? I mean 554 00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 2: it's so beautiful, the. 555 00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:16,080 Speaker 17: One, don't you mean the one on Sardinia, the that's 556 00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:18,280 Speaker 17: still up for sale. I haven't heard of sale going through. 557 00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:23,160 Speaker 2: Legend Garden and just yeah, it's impressive. Is just let 558 00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:25,840 Speaker 2: me know if it's still for sale. Get one fond too. 559 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:28,439 Speaker 2: It nice to see you, Joe, Joe mc in Italy. 560 00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:32,119 Speaker 2: The numbers from the campaign, So no one's touching Harris. 561 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:34,240 Speaker 2: She's crossed, as I told you the other day, a 562 00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:36,880 Speaker 2: billion and so she's rolling in dough even though they're 563 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:41,560 Speaker 2: asking for more filings. The smrning though for September showed 564 00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:45,520 Speaker 2: Trump brought in a lot of money, but most of 565 00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:48,959 Speaker 2: it came from three peoples. One was called Miriam and 566 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:51,320 Speaker 2: she's into casino so she handed over quite a bit. 567 00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:54,040 Speaker 2: And another one was called Elison, and the other one 568 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:57,359 Speaker 2: was called Elon. Elon gave seventy five as a million 569 00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:02,640 Speaker 2: to a super pack, So just three billionaires handed over 570 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:04,680 Speaker 2: two hundred and twenty million dollars. So Trump is being 571 00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:07,240 Speaker 2: funded by rich people and Carmel has been funded by 572 00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:09,440 Speaker 2: the American people. So there's optics that are don't know 573 00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:11,920 Speaker 2: if anyone cares or not, but the amount of money 574 00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:14,760 Speaker 2: that's been spent is astonishing, and still it's a tight race. 575 00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:16,359 Speaker 2: Nine away from seven. 576 00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:22,000 Speaker 1: Call the Mike Hosking Breakfast with a Vida Retirement. Communities 577 00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:22,960 Speaker 1: News togs. 578 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:25,080 Speaker 2: Had been book research, Salton and Brunei was looking at 579 00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:27,640 Speaker 2: it for in June at about half a billion as 580 00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:31,439 Speaker 2: in euro In July they were going to turn it 581 00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:35,440 Speaker 2: into a museum. So clearly fluid Trump I was telling 582 00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:39,920 Speaker 2: you yesterday about his new coin didn't sell that well. 583 00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:42,760 Speaker 2: They only got forty three hundred unique wallet addresses. This 584 00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:45,320 Speaker 2: is all cryptos stuff. Of course, only forty three hundred. 585 00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:47,359 Speaker 2: They had one hundred thousand lined up, they said, but 586 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:49,440 Speaker 2: only forty three hundred brought. And of course the other 587 00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:52,240 Speaker 2: problem was the website crashed a lot five minutes away 588 00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:52,720 Speaker 2: from seven. 589 00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:55,439 Speaker 16: All the inns and the outs. 590 00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:56,880 Speaker 14: It's the biz. 591 00:27:57,080 --> 00:28:00,840 Speaker 1: With business Fiber, take your business productivity to the next level. 592 00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:03,080 Speaker 2: Course the US. Tom Brady's an NFL owner. He and 593 00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:05,320 Speaker 2: his business partner paid over three hundred and thirty million 594 00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:07,919 Speaker 2: yesterday for ten percent stake in the Raiders Las Vegas 595 00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:10,600 Speaker 2: five percent each, just the third player in history to 596 00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:12,680 Speaker 2: be able to do this. He also works for Fox, 597 00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:14,200 Speaker 2: and then that's the problem. By the way, he got 598 00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:17,160 Speaker 2: that ten percent at a heavily discounted rate. They agreed 599 00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:19,200 Speaker 2: to sell the ten percent at a valuation of three 600 00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:23,359 Speaker 2: and a half billion. Team's actually worth seven anyway. He 601 00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:25,760 Speaker 2: works for Fox, and that's a good deal too. He's 602 00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:27,359 Speaker 2: on a ten year deal for six hundred and twenty 603 00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:31,360 Speaker 2: million as their lead analyst. He's not bad. He's not brilliant, 604 00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:34,359 Speaker 2: but he's not bad anyway. Be bad as may be, 605 00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:37,919 Speaker 2: that as it may. There are restrictions in being an owner, 606 00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:41,120 Speaker 2: and Fox have got problems with us because as an owner, 607 00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:45,120 Speaker 2: Brady is not allowed to enter another team's facility. He's 608 00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:47,760 Speaker 2: not permitted to witness practice, he's not permitted to attend 609 00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:51,960 Speaker 2: broadcast production meetings. He's prohibited from publicly criticizing game officials 610 00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:54,280 Speaker 2: and other clubs. He's subject for the leagu's gambling policy, 611 00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:56,920 Speaker 2: and he's subject for the leagu's anti tampering policies, many 612 00:28:56,920 --> 00:29:00,640 Speaker 2: of which might well be a problem because lists sit 613 00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:03,800 Speaker 2: down and meet with players, they do that in their facility. 614 00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:06,520 Speaker 2: They need to be in the facility when they're doing 615 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:08,920 Speaker 2: the commentary and all of that. So who knows where 616 00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:13,640 Speaker 2: this goes. Best news yesterday as regards Tom Brady, Vicinity 617 00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:16,040 Speaker 2: became the owner de Bonte. Adams, who's one of the 618 00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:18,840 Speaker 2: best players in the league as a wide receiver, has 619 00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:21,080 Speaker 2: wanted to leave the Raiders for Ages and got traded 620 00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:24,320 Speaker 2: to the New York Jets, where he reconvenes with Aaron Rodgers, 621 00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:26,640 Speaker 2: this old mate from the Green Pay packadays and if 622 00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:28,640 Speaker 2: the Jets are going to turn around this season, they 623 00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:32,560 Speaker 2: need somebody liked Bonte Adams. So Brady turns up as 624 00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:34,440 Speaker 2: a new owner and goes, hey, guys, what's happening to go? Well, 625 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:36,880 Speaker 2: that guy there, Devonte, he's just left the building, so 626 00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:39,160 Speaker 2: he's going to have to think about all of that now. Inflation. 627 00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:43,720 Speaker 2: Nikola Willis, Minister of Finance. Have we overcooked? It will 628 00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:44,920 Speaker 2: be my opening question. 629 00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:50,120 Speaker 1: Shortly, You're Trusted Home the News for Entertainments, Opinion and 630 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:53,880 Speaker 1: Mike the Mike Hosking Breakfast with the range Rover villa 631 00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:57,120 Speaker 1: designed to intrigue and use Tog's head bell. 632 00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:59,320 Speaker 2: Seven past seven. So the theme if yesterday was with 633 00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:01,520 Speaker 2: inflation at tw two point two percent, it's over or 634 00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:04,040 Speaker 2: is it? I mean, questions remain around the non tradable 635 00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:05,960 Speaker 2: figure which is four point nine and still an issue. 636 00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:07,600 Speaker 2: I would have thought then the question of what the 637 00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:10,000 Speaker 2: Reserve Bank does next month. Of course, Finance Minister Nikola 638 00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:12,760 Speaker 2: Willis with us. Good morning, Good morning, Matty, as you 639 00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:14,720 Speaker 2: were celebrating yesterday as well you might because you're the 640 00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:17,160 Speaker 2: finance minister and a politician. Can I suggest to you 641 00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:19,800 Speaker 2: it never had to be this bad. We've had three recessions, 642 00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:21,360 Speaker 2: tens of thousands of people out of work, in a 643 00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:23,760 Speaker 2: shed load of people bail on the country. It could 644 00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:26,360 Speaker 2: have been done better, couldn't it look look like? 645 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:28,720 Speaker 19: I'm absolutely with you. There is no question that the 646 00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:32,920 Speaker 19: last government fueled inflation. They are excessive spending meant that 647 00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:36,440 Speaker 19: inflation stayed higher for longer, which meant the Reserve Bank 648 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:40,040 Speaker 19: then pranked interest rates higher than would otherwise have had 649 00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:41,880 Speaker 19: to have been the case, and we are feeling the 650 00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:44,280 Speaker 19: pain of that in our economy now. There was no 651 00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:49,040 Speaker 19: question about that. But I need to look forward because 652 00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:51,480 Speaker 19: my job is to set the conditions for future growth. 653 00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:54,760 Speaker 19: And I have said one of the consistent things growing 654 00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:58,600 Speaker 19: economies around the world have as they have low stable inflation, 655 00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:02,640 Speaker 19: that allows for interest rates to be reasonable, That allows 656 00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:07,000 Speaker 19: businesses to borrow, that allows mortgages to have the people 657 00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:09,240 Speaker 19: with mortgages to have spare cash. So we have set 658 00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:11,440 Speaker 19: the conditions for growth. So it was a great day. 659 00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:14,200 Speaker 2: Right, what's neutral for a cash rate? Do you reckon? 660 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:18,360 Speaker 19: Look that that depends There are lots of factors that 661 00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:21,480 Speaker 19: go into it. What people across the world are saying, give. 662 00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:24,440 Speaker 2: Me a number numbers of New Zealand job. 663 00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:26,880 Speaker 19: No, no, I'm not going to I'm not going to 664 00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:29,560 Speaker 19: do Adrian's job. You know, We've had this discussion before. 665 00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:32,000 Speaker 19: I don't do that job. He does his job. 666 00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:34,120 Speaker 2: Well, that's part of the problem though. Hence my first 667 00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:37,120 Speaker 2: question is it does he do his job with three recessions? 668 00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:40,800 Speaker 19: Look, there is no question, as I said, that New 669 00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:43,880 Speaker 19: Zealand has come through a very difficult time. We've had 670 00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:47,880 Speaker 19: highly restrictive monetary policy, but of course that followed a 671 00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:51,200 Speaker 19: period in which we had highly loose monetary policy in 672 00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:55,200 Speaker 19: which we did huge amounts of money printing, quantitative easing, 673 00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 19: where late rates were kept low for a very long time. 674 00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:02,160 Speaker 19: And I've been openly critical in the past of the 675 00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:05,800 Speaker 19: Reserve Bank's decision making following COVID, where I think it 676 00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:08,640 Speaker 19: was very very loose in its monetary policy, combined with 677 00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:12,320 Speaker 19: very loose fiscal policy from the government, and that did 678 00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:14,920 Speaker 19: lead to a situation which has taken a long time 679 00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:15,479 Speaker 19: to unwind. 680 00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:16,360 Speaker 10: It's been three and. 681 00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:17,280 Speaker 4: A half years. 682 00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:19,080 Speaker 2: Yes, I know, But the here and now, which is 683 00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:21,400 Speaker 2: where you are right now fifty or seventy five, And 684 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:24,160 Speaker 2: if it's seventy five, that's tantamount to admission of a mistake. 685 00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:26,160 Speaker 2: He's overcooked, it isn't it. I'm worried about the number. 686 00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:27,920 Speaker 2: The number was lower than what they expected, and I 687 00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:30,120 Speaker 2: just wonder if it's still going down too low, too slow. 688 00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:33,560 Speaker 19: Well, look, here's the way I look at it. When 689 00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:38,160 Speaker 19: I look ahead to the next the next decision in November, 690 00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:41,640 Speaker 19: what is the Reserve Bank governor going to be looking at. 691 00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:44,000 Speaker 19: He's going to be looking at how the economy is 692 00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:47,880 Speaker 19: functioning and how monetary policy is transmitting through and if 693 00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:51,760 Speaker 19: he chooses to reduce interest rates further, that will be 694 00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:54,960 Speaker 19: good for many many businesses who will then think, Yep, 695 00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:57,120 Speaker 19: I'm going to actually borrow and I'm going to expand, 696 00:32:57,160 --> 00:32:58,959 Speaker 19: and I'm going to buy that new machinery and I'm 697 00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:01,920 Speaker 19: going to start that overseas market. So I need to 698 00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:04,920 Speaker 19: look forward, and I know that the conditions we need 699 00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:07,560 Speaker 19: for the growth that will lead to the hir incomes. 700 00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:10,040 Speaker 19: The better choices that I want New Zealanders to have 701 00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:13,200 Speaker 19: is low, stable inflation, interest rates coming down. 702 00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:16,040 Speaker 2: So I make Since we last talked, you open those 703 00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:18,200 Speaker 2: books I can't remember your word, but it was sober 704 00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:21,200 Speaker 2: or depressing or miserable or something one sixty seven billion 705 00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:22,720 Speaker 2: in but you're spending one to eighty Why are you 706 00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:24,560 Speaker 2: spending so much money when you don't have it as 707 00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:25,760 Speaker 2: a conservative chancellor? 708 00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:29,400 Speaker 19: Because we had one of the most extreme increases in 709 00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:32,800 Speaker 19: government spending that New Zealand has seen under the last government. 710 00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:36,040 Speaker 19: It went from under thirty percent or like twenty percent 711 00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:38,920 Speaker 19: of the gross domestic product up to as god as 712 00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:41,920 Speaker 19: high as thirty four percent. And we are now unwinding that. 713 00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:45,560 Speaker 19: And that is not something that we can do immediately 714 00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:49,000 Speaker 19: overnight without causing massive pain to New Zealanders. But we 715 00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:52,040 Speaker 19: have set out a plan that sees us unwinding that 716 00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:56,960 Speaker 19: over time real restraint with the smallest operating allowance since 717 00:33:57,320 --> 00:34:00,480 Speaker 19: Steven Joyce lower operating allowances in the future that will 718 00:34:00,520 --> 00:34:04,720 Speaker 19: require us to keep making pretty difficult choices to put 719 00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:07,640 Speaker 19: the lid down. That's important that we do it for 720 00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:11,920 Speaker 19: New Zealand because actually having well managed finances that ensure 721 00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:14,920 Speaker 19: that we're not racking up huge amounts of debt is 722 00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:17,640 Speaker 19: important for the way we're viewed internationally. It's important for 723 00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:20,320 Speaker 19: the interest rates New Zealand is pay It's important for 724 00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:21,880 Speaker 19: my kids so that they don't look at me in 725 00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:23,719 Speaker 19: the eye and say, Mum, you throw all the debt 726 00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:26,319 Speaker 19: at us. So we are working on that. We are 727 00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:28,879 Speaker 19: doing it gradually, we are doing it responsibly, We're doing 728 00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:29,399 Speaker 19: it the right way. 729 00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:31,560 Speaker 2: Give between ten seconds you worried about ACC. 730 00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:36,440 Speaker 19: I do want to see ACC managing its costs much better. 731 00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:42,719 Speaker 19: ACC contributes to New Zealand's deficit considerably. But also when 732 00:34:42,880 --> 00:34:46,520 Speaker 19: ACC is not managing its costs well, every single worker 733 00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:50,000 Speaker 19: pays a higher levy and I don't like those costs 734 00:34:50,040 --> 00:34:53,279 Speaker 19: continuing to go up five percent every year or more 735 00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:55,719 Speaker 19: when it comes to some of the fees. So yeah, 736 00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:58,120 Speaker 19: we're taking a good hard look at ACC to make 737 00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:00,600 Speaker 19: sure that it is well run and that they are 738 00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:02,120 Speaker 19: keeping their costs. 739 00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:04,840 Speaker 2: Down as indeed will we because we've got the the 740 00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:07,200 Speaker 2: head of ASC on after seven to thirtyppreciate time. Nicola 741 00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:10,360 Speaker 2: Willis Finance Minister twelve and it's past seven pask D 742 00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:13,640 Speaker 2: Day of sorts for Wellington Local government.

I hope we've got 759 00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:57,440 Speaker 2: the phone sorted out. Apologies for that. Nicola Young, the 760 00:35:57,480 --> 00:36:01,080 Speaker 2: Wellington Councilor, with us, Good morning. Did you get any 761 00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:03,600 Speaker 2: circuit breaker type vibes out of yesterday's meeting? 762 00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:06,920 Speaker 20: Well, I'd have to say there is certainly an acceptance 763 00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:10,279 Speaker 20: by the councilors that they have to stop spending, they 764 00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:12,919 Speaker 20: have to make some spending cuts. The question is where 765 00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:15,360 Speaker 20: they make the spending cuts. The mayor is committed to 766 00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:18,600 Speaker 20: the Golden Mile, which of course most Wellingtonians, we believe, 767 00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:22,839 Speaker 20: don't want. She's talking about selling the ground leases which 768 00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:25,880 Speaker 20: are worth nearly two hundred and fifty million, but didn't 769 00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:27,719 Speaker 20: mention the fact that they're actually a major source of 770 00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:30,480 Speaker 20: revenue for the council. So the other thing is we 771 00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:34,719 Speaker 20: haven't actually got any idea how big the fiscal hole is, 772 00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:38,040 Speaker 20: and we've been told two hundred million, four hundred million, 773 00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:41,200 Speaker 20: six hundred million over ten years, so I think they're 774 00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:43,160 Speaker 20: aiming for a figure of five hundred million. But there's 775 00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:46,520 Speaker 20: no there's no sexual basis for this figure. And when 776 00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:48,520 Speaker 20: I asked about this what it was based on, I 777 00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:51,799 Speaker 20: was told, well, it's more it's an art, not a science. Well, 778 00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:53,360 Speaker 20: actually money is all about science. 779 00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:55,600 Speaker 2: This is very much the case. Does she have anything 780 00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:57,959 Speaker 2: do you know to convince Siming and Brown this morning 781 00:36:58,080 --> 00:36:59,040 Speaker 2: not to pull the trigger? 782 00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:02,480 Speaker 14: I don't think so. 783 00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:04,759 Speaker 20: I mean, we haven't got a plan, We've just got 784 00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:08,319 Speaker 20: a vague agreement that we need to address this, and 785 00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:12,040 Speaker 20: the reality of where the cuts come have not been identified. 786 00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:14,200 Speaker 20: But you know, I mean three of us who changed 787 00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:16,480 Speaker 20: our vote. You know why we changed our vote, the 788 00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:20,359 Speaker 20: three fiscally dry councilors, because we had the ability to 789 00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:23,400 Speaker 20: borrow another two hundred and fifty million in the case 790 00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:26,520 Speaker 20: of an emergency. It's called the insurance debt headroom. And 791 00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:29,560 Speaker 20: this was agreed unanimously that wouldn't be touched. And then 792 00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:32,160 Speaker 20: a week later after the vote, we found out that 793 00:37:32,239 --> 00:37:35,000 Speaker 20: it would be in case. It would be touched for 794 00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:37,560 Speaker 20: the next nine years. It was already factored into the spending, 795 00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:39,879 Speaker 20: and that's why we voted against it, because we're trying 796 00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:41,160 Speaker 20: to stop the spending. 797 00:37:41,440 --> 00:37:44,279 Speaker 2: What's your gut do you think Simming and Brown will 798 00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:45,000 Speaker 2: do something or not? 799 00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:48,000 Speaker 14: I hope so good? 800 00:37:48,040 --> 00:37:50,480 Speaker 2: All right, Nichol appreciate it very much, Nichola Young. A 801 00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:52,600 Speaker 2: lot of coverage some people talking about an election. There 802 00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:54,960 Speaker 2: will be no election. I don't know why they've come 803 00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:56,760 Speaker 2: to the conclusion that there could be a snap election. 804 00:37:57,200 --> 00:38:00,920 Speaker 2: Think it through. A snap election solves nothing because you 805 00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:04,720 Speaker 2: don't know what the election's going to provide. The only 806 00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:06,600 Speaker 2: thing the government will do if they pull the trigger 807 00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:10,239 Speaker 2: is put an observer in personally. I think that should 808 00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:12,239 Speaker 2: put a comissioner and or commissioners and do a tower 809 00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:15,600 Speaker 2: on a doing a Canterbury regional. But they could put 810 00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:18,120 Speaker 2: an observer in initially, but there's no election. So anyway, 811 00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:20,160 Speaker 2: next time you hear about the possibility of a snap election, 812 00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:21,719 Speaker 2: you forget it. People don't know what they're talking about. 813 00:38:21,719 --> 00:38:24,759 Speaker 2: Eighteen past seven skiing. The way that some people get 814 00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:27,000 Speaker 2: divorced is about to change. We've got the Family Proceedings 815 00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:30,120 Speaker 2: Amendment Bill that's passed with rare unanimous support yesterday in 816 00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:32,080 Speaker 2: the Parliament. It's called Ashley's Law or the calling at 817 00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:34,600 Speaker 2: Ashley's Law because Ashley told the story to a local 818 00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:36,719 Speaker 2: MP and Ashley is Ashley Jones is with us. Very 819 00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:37,319 Speaker 2: good morning to. 820 00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:38,680 Speaker 21: You morning mate. 821 00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:41,720 Speaker 2: Must be amazing for you, because very rarely in Parliament 822 00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:44,680 Speaker 2: one do they all agree, and two they pass something 823 00:38:44,760 --> 00:38:46,839 Speaker 2: that will stand the test of time. They will never 824 00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:50,160 Speaker 2: go back on this. So you've profoundly changed the way 825 00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:53,000 Speaker 2: we do things in this country and that must be amazing. 826 00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:57,520 Speaker 21: It's so crazy. I live. I did not expect this 827 00:38:57,640 --> 00:38:59,680 Speaker 21: so to pass unanimously. To be honest, they thought too 828 00:38:59,719 --> 00:39:04,200 Speaker 21: you passes was crazy enough. So I was very shocked, 829 00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:06,560 Speaker 21: very early on the reading when I realized it would 830 00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:09,480 Speaker 21: that I still kind of can't believe that I was 831 00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:12,239 Speaker 21: fundamental in changing a law and that's going to be 832 00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:13,359 Speaker 21: around forever. 833 00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:16,920 Speaker 2: Isn't it? Isn't that excellent? Chris Bishop? As an exercise 834 00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:20,440 Speaker 2: in going along to a local MP and the culmination 835 00:39:20,640 --> 00:39:23,239 Speaker 2: being a law passed, What are you makeable with that? 836 00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:28,279 Speaker 21: I think it's a huge reminder to people that one 837 00:39:28,719 --> 00:39:31,960 Speaker 21: voice can make change and if you fight hard enough 838 00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:33,839 Speaker 21: it has taken four years. If you fight hard enough, 839 00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:37,719 Speaker 21: you can change things that you think are not right. 840 00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:40,520 Speaker 21: I think Chris Bishop said it right last night, that 841 00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:43,160 Speaker 21: they were just fixing something that wasn't right. 842 00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:45,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, were you politically active in any way? Did you 843 00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:47,800 Speaker 2: know what was going on? Did you know Chris Bishop? 844 00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:49,719 Speaker 2: Were you active in a political scene before any of 845 00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:50,160 Speaker 2: this or not? 846 00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:51,600 Speaker 20: Absolutely not. 847 00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:54,200 Speaker 21: I was just a small town girl that had moved 848 00:39:54,239 --> 00:39:57,280 Speaker 21: up to Wellington and realized that I was up against 849 00:39:57,320 --> 00:40:00,359 Speaker 21: the system that was broken. And Chris Bishop was only 850 00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:05,280 Speaker 21: MP locally that responded to my request for a meeting. 851 00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:11,200 Speaker 21: And yeah, no previous background dealing with politics. 852 00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:13,080 Speaker 2: You're going to be a politician. Do you want to 853 00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:15,640 Speaker 2: change the system? Some more of this.

It's meeting day, It's deal with Darlene Day. 890 00:41:59,040 --> 00:42:00,680 Speaker 2: Oh you thought I was going to talk about Wellington, 891 00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:03,480 Speaker 2: didn't you steal with Darlene Day. Darlene is off to 892 00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:06,400 Speaker 2: court as you do. But the party, her former party, 893 00:42:06,640 --> 00:42:09,399 Speaker 2: is going to have another meeting and it suggested they 894 00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:12,800 Speaker 2: may even make a decision. They need seventy five percent 895 00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:15,040 Speaker 2: to boot her out of Parliament via the Walker jumping law. 896 00:42:15,080 --> 00:42:17,160 Speaker 2: I got no idea whether they'll get that or not. 897 00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:19,080 Speaker 2: If you haven't followed this, and I don't blame you. 898 00:42:19,520 --> 00:42:21,920 Speaker 2: Trying to understand the way the Greens think requires tremendous 899 00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:24,440 Speaker 2: patience and quite possibly a lot of cannabis. But they 900 00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:27,000 Speaker 2: don't like walker jumping in the law, so to have 901 00:42:27,120 --> 00:42:28,880 Speaker 2: to use it would rub a lot of them up 902 00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:32,080 Speaker 2: the wrong way. But Darlene with her actions, has already 903 00:42:32,160 --> 00:42:34,920 Speaker 2: rubbed them up the wrong way. So it's just a 904 00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:38,920 Speaker 2: matter perhaps of working out which feels less rubby Tana 905 00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:41,319 Speaker 2: or the law you dislike. Now, at some point, as 906 00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:43,839 Speaker 2: I've suggested before, they might like to look at their 907 00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:47,279 Speaker 2: candidate selection process, because I assume at one of their 908 00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:50,920 Speaker 2: preceding meetings somebody has had the wherewithal to say something like, hey, guys, 909 00:42:51,520 --> 00:42:54,000 Speaker 2: have you noticed how many halfwits we've ended up selecting 910 00:42:54,040 --> 00:42:55,840 Speaker 2: that have gone on to make fools of us? Couple 911 00:42:55,880 --> 00:42:59,279 Speaker 2: of procedural things you must never forget. The party has 912 00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:01,279 Speaker 2: never released the Force report into tan, and now you 913 00:43:01,320 --> 00:43:03,719 Speaker 2: might want to ask yourself why not. Also, you might 914 00:43:03,719 --> 00:43:07,359 Speaker 2: have noticed how astonishingly long it's taken to get to 915 00:43:07,400 --> 00:43:09,880 Speaker 2: this point, and that might just be a warning as 916 00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:11,919 Speaker 2: to what sort of approach to matters they may take 917 00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:14,080 Speaker 2: should they ever be in power in a cabinet that 918 00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:17,319 Speaker 2: actually requires adults to make sharpest sort of decisions. As 919 00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:19,960 Speaker 2: for today, well, they have to boot her out, one 920 00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:23,399 Speaker 2: because she is a reprobate, but two because they've made 921 00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:26,080 Speaker 2: such a meal of her performance and behavior. Not to 922 00:43:26,120 --> 00:43:28,440 Speaker 2: boot her out is to see her win, and to 923 00:43:28,440 --> 00:43:31,240 Speaker 2: see her win would make absolute fools of the party. 924 00:43:31,600 --> 00:43:33,719 Speaker 2: That's not to say that won't happen, because it's the 925 00:43:33,719 --> 00:43:35,719 Speaker 2: Greens and they're not like the rest of us. But 926 00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:39,440 Speaker 2: it might just be that one of Parliament's bigger embarrassments 927 00:43:39,480 --> 00:43:42,799 Speaker 2: is about to and not a moment too soon, get 928 00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:46,719 Speaker 2: her come up and asking Mike Jinda being honored for 929 00:43:46,800 --> 00:43:53,160 Speaker 2: shredding the countryuous look, I hesitate to criticize people who 930 00:43:53,200 --> 00:43:56,600 Speaker 2: receive the nation's highest honor. And damehood is a damehood 931 00:43:56,600 --> 00:43:58,440 Speaker 2: and you can't take that away from her. You can 932 00:43:58,600 --> 00:44:01,480 Speaker 2: argue as to why and how she got it. You 933 00:44:01,480 --> 00:44:04,160 Speaker 2: can offer up a couple of thoughts, as I'm about 934 00:44:04,160 --> 00:44:06,160 Speaker 2: to do, funnily enough, as to why she was doing 935 00:44:06,239 --> 00:44:09,960 Speaker 2: it at Windsor and not in New Zealand. And my 936 00:44:10,160 --> 00:44:12,239 Speaker 2: strong suspicion, and let me tell you a little insight. 937 00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:13,839 Speaker 2: There's a book coming out next year, and I won't 938 00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:16,760 Speaker 2: tell you who by, but it's about her and I'm 939 00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:18,319 Speaker 2: involved in it. They talk to me about it. They 940 00:44:18,320 --> 00:44:21,360 Speaker 2: wanted an opinion on her, and I felt it necessary 941 00:44:21,440 --> 00:44:23,680 Speaker 2: to offer that opinion because my great fear in the 942 00:44:23,719 --> 00:44:25,879 Speaker 2: writing of the book it would be an opinion full 943 00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:30,200 Speaker 2: of lobbies who are blinded by her. But here's the cold, 944 00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:32,160 Speaker 2: hard reality. I doubt she'll ever come back to the 945 00:44:32,160 --> 00:44:35,239 Speaker 2: country and the way she conducts herself these days, in 946 00:44:35,320 --> 00:44:39,880 Speaker 2: terms of speaking and money and ball balls and traveling 947 00:44:39,880 --> 00:44:42,520 Speaker 2: to Windsor to see William to giggle as he did 948 00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:45,360 Speaker 2: as he awarded her the look at the British Press. 949 00:44:45,360 --> 00:44:49,840 Speaker 2: William giggles as he hands her the award. It's to 950 00:44:50,040 --> 00:44:54,160 Speaker 2: still live in this country dealing with the literal economic 951 00:44:54,280 --> 00:44:59,719 Speaker 2: damage that she put in front of us is a 952 00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:03,440 Speaker 2: great to be Frank, and I wish you well. Generally 953 00:45:03,520 --> 00:45:04,920 Speaker 2: she can get on with her life and do whatever 954 00:45:04,960 --> 00:45:07,719 Speaker 2: she wants, but it does remind us on days like 955 00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:10,759 Speaker 2: this just what she did to the place and to 956 00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:13,359 Speaker 2: be rewarded for that leaves you a bit sick. 957 00:45:14,680 --> 00:45:18,759 Speaker 1: The newsmakers and the personalities the big names talk to, 958 00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:23,240 Speaker 1: like my costing breakfast with Bailey's real Estate, your local 959 00:45:23,280 --> 00:45:27,120 Speaker 1: experts across residential, commercial and rural news talks had been. 960 00:45:27,080 --> 00:45:30,840 Speaker 2: Toney quinnon great success story started with nothing in Scotland. 961 00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:34,440 Speaker 2: Turns out he owns Hampton Downs and Highland's Motorsport Park 962 00:45:34,440 --> 00:45:36,919 Speaker 2: and Tarpeau and he's made his fortune and your pet food. 963 00:45:36,920 --> 00:45:38,480 Speaker 2: It's a good story anyway. He's back with us on 964 00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:41,799 Speaker 2: the program upter eight o'clock this morning. Meantime, ACC back 965 00:45:41,800 --> 00:45:43,879 Speaker 2: in trouble again. They've got themselves a seven billion dollar 966 00:45:43,960 --> 00:45:46,520 Speaker 2: hole and when they balance the books it's us who pays, 967 00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:47,880 Speaker 2: of course, so lebbies are going to have to go 968 00:45:47,960 --> 00:45:50,719 Speaker 2: up ACC's chief executive as Meghan Maine, who is we 969 00:45:50,880 --> 00:45:53,440 Speaker 2: us good morning cur to make So from the black 970 00:45:53,520 --> 00:45:55,279 Speaker 2: last year to the red this year to the tune 971 00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:57,680 Speaker 2: of over seven billion dollars, does that make you sort 972 00:45:57,680 --> 00:45:59,200 Speaker 2: of health New Zealand two point zero. 973 00:46:01,200 --> 00:46:03,560 Speaker 6: Look, there's a couple of things going on with that number. 974 00:46:03,719 --> 00:46:03,959 Speaker 16: Mic. 975 00:46:04,719 --> 00:46:07,439 Speaker 6: In terms of the deficit, there's the money we spend 976 00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:10,200 Speaker 6: during the year, which is about seven billion, which is 977 00:46:10,239 --> 00:46:13,839 Speaker 6: about what we budgeted. But the bigger factor is the 978 00:46:13,880 --> 00:46:18,319 Speaker 6: calculation today of the lifetime cost of the injuries that 979 00:46:18,360 --> 00:46:22,920 Speaker 6: have already occurred, and that that recalculation is the is 980 00:46:22,960 --> 00:46:26,240 Speaker 6: the big driver of that seven point two billion dollar deficit. 981 00:46:27,080 --> 00:46:31,080 Speaker 6: That lifetime calculation went up by eight point seven billion 982 00:46:31,160 --> 00:46:39,880 Speaker 6: during the year. It's a mathematical estimate by actories who 983 00:46:40,040 --> 00:46:44,560 Speaker 6: use a lot of assumptions. They use economic assumptions, population assumptions, 984 00:46:44,600 --> 00:46:49,359 Speaker 6: inflation assumptions, so it's a best estimate, and there's three 985 00:46:49,400 --> 00:46:50,200 Speaker 6: aspects to it. 986 00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:50,520 Speaker 14: Really. 987 00:46:50,560 --> 00:46:54,600 Speaker 6: One is the expected cost increase. The scheme is still growing. 988 00:46:54,800 --> 00:46:58,680 Speaker 6: Even at fifty years. We still get more claims coming 989 00:46:58,760 --> 00:47:01,799 Speaker 6: in than the exit each year, so that's a big 990 00:47:01,840 --> 00:47:06,520 Speaker 6: part of the increase. The unexpected aspect this year was 991 00:47:06,680 --> 00:47:09,560 Speaker 6: a couple of court decisions which landed in December. 992 00:47:09,880 --> 00:47:11,640 Speaker 2: Just sorry, harder up, let me ask you about those 993 00:47:11,680 --> 00:47:14,440 Speaker 2: are those parts? My understanding of those court cases is 994 00:47:14,480 --> 00:47:17,080 Speaker 2: you haven't worked through the implications. Is that true or not. 995 00:47:18,760 --> 00:47:22,200 Speaker 6: We're working hard to work through what those decisions mean. 996 00:47:22,680 --> 00:47:25,759 Speaker 6: We have started applying it though, from the date of 997 00:47:25,800 --> 00:47:29,600 Speaker 6: the court decision, so we've got interim guidance that our 998 00:47:29,840 --> 00:47:33,400 Speaker 6: experts staff are using with current and new clients who 999 00:47:33,440 --> 00:47:37,719 Speaker 6: are victims of sexual assault. But it will take a 1000 00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:41,440 Speaker 6: while to work through the full implications and how we 1001 00:47:41,480 --> 00:47:42,440 Speaker 6: operationalize that. 1002 00:47:42,560 --> 00:47:44,200 Speaker 2: So you've been lumped with that. This is the stuff 1003 00:47:44,239 --> 00:47:45,920 Speaker 2: I feel sorry for you. I mean, not that they 1004 00:47:45,960 --> 00:47:47,680 Speaker 2: shouldn't rule the way they did. I'm just saying that 1005 00:47:47,680 --> 00:47:49,600 Speaker 2: suddenly you wake up one morning there's a court case 1006 00:47:49,640 --> 00:47:51,760 Speaker 2: and there's a whole bunch of clients that you didn't 1007 00:47:51,840 --> 00:47:54,279 Speaker 2: know you were getting. Yeah. 1008 00:47:54,320 --> 00:47:57,799 Speaker 6: Well, and you know, Mike, this is a really complex 1009 00:47:57,920 --> 00:48:02,640 Speaker 6: area of the law of acc boundary issues. You know, 1010 00:48:02,680 --> 00:48:05,720 Speaker 6: this is about people who were sexually abused as children. 1011 00:48:06,120 --> 00:48:09,359 Speaker 6: So we need to step through this really carefully with them. 1012 00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:12,000 Speaker 6: And so that's what we're doing, and that you know, 1013 00:48:12,040 --> 00:48:14,520 Speaker 6: that's what our teams are doing. How much but I 1014 00:48:14,560 --> 00:48:19,040 Speaker 6: do carry But there's a third aspect of the of 1015 00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:23,879 Speaker 6: the increase, and that's rehabilitation performance, and that's the thing 1016 00:48:23,920 --> 00:48:26,800 Speaker 6: we're really focused on. That's the thing most in our control, 1017 00:48:28,120 --> 00:48:31,480 Speaker 6: you know, making sure our case management is working for people. 1018 00:48:31,520 --> 00:48:34,040 Speaker 6: And frankly, you know, the best thing we can do 1019 00:48:34,280 --> 00:48:37,440 Speaker 6: for our clients the New Zealand productivity and for the 1020 00:48:37,520 --> 00:48:41,239 Speaker 6: scheme long term is help people get better faster and 1021 00:48:41,280 --> 00:48:45,080 Speaker 6: also importantly, you know, remember that we want people to 1022 00:48:45,120 --> 00:48:46,879 Speaker 6: avoid getting injured in the first place. 1023 00:48:47,120 --> 00:48:48,640 Speaker 2: Correct, I'll come to that in the moment if we 1024 00:48:48,680 --> 00:48:50,600 Speaker 2: get time. But this whole remember, I mean you may 1025 00:48:50,640 --> 00:48:52,359 Speaker 2: not have been here at the time, but remember years 1026 00:48:52,360 --> 00:48:55,239 Speaker 2: ago the physiotherapists were ripping off the system left, right 1027 00:48:55,280 --> 00:48:57,720 Speaker 2: and center, and you went along for twenty seven hundred 1028 00:48:57,800 --> 00:48:59,719 Speaker 2: sessions when you only needed three. Is there still a 1029 00:48:59,719 --> 00:49:02,200 Speaker 2: bit of in the system? 1030 00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:06,359 Speaker 6: Look, it's an entitlement scheme, you know, and we need 1031 00:49:06,400 --> 00:49:09,319 Speaker 6: to make sure that we're giving people the support they need. 1032 00:49:09,680 --> 00:49:11,759 Speaker 2: How much always I'm paying for it? I mean, do 1033 00:49:11,800 --> 00:49:13,200 Speaker 2: you need to run me down for the rest of 1034 00:49:13,200 --> 00:49:14,960 Speaker 2: my life or do we need to get back to work? 1035 00:49:16,040 --> 00:49:16,200 Speaker 8: Yeah? 1036 00:49:16,280 --> 00:49:20,000 Speaker 6: Yeah, Look, we're very mindful of fraud, of over payments, 1037 00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:22,640 Speaker 6: of over servicing, and we also work really closely with 1038 00:49:22,760 --> 00:49:26,319 Speaker 6: IRD to make sure that the people are getting the 1039 00:49:26,360 --> 00:49:29,480 Speaker 6: payments they're entitled to. But you know, your example is 1040 00:49:29,880 --> 00:49:32,640 Speaker 6: a good example of making sure that from a case 1041 00:49:32,680 --> 00:49:36,440 Speaker 6: management point of view, we're working closely with clients, particularly 1042 00:49:36,440 --> 00:49:41,200 Speaker 6: clients receiving weekly compensation they're off work. You know, we 1043 00:49:41,320 --> 00:49:43,960 Speaker 6: know there's so much evidence that being off work is 1044 00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:46,000 Speaker 6: not good for you, it's not good for your well being, 1045 00:49:46,840 --> 00:49:48,640 Speaker 6: and so we really want to make sure we're giving 1046 00:49:48,680 --> 00:49:51,680 Speaker 6: people what they need, not giving them more than they need. 1047 00:49:51,719 --> 00:49:54,680 Speaker 6: We don't want to get people dependent on the scheme. 1048 00:49:55,440 --> 00:49:58,280 Speaker 2: When Doocy comes to you as minister and go seven 1049 00:49:58,320 --> 00:50:00,520 Speaker 2: point two, I get it, but just don't go around 1050 00:50:00,600 --> 00:50:04,200 Speaker 2: charging people automatically, which is what you're wanting to do. 1051 00:50:04,200 --> 00:50:06,200 Speaker 2: Do you get that and are you able to do 1052 00:50:06,280 --> 00:50:08,960 Speaker 2: anything about it or is he just saying something political 1053 00:50:08,960 --> 00:50:10,120 Speaker 2: to get himself out of trouble. 1054 00:50:12,960 --> 00:50:15,759 Speaker 6: So we work really closely with our minister. You know, 1055 00:50:15,800 --> 00:50:18,399 Speaker 6: we're all really focused on this and as I say, 1056 00:50:18,440 --> 00:50:22,839 Speaker 6: the thing in our control is improving rehabilitation performance. We've 1057 00:50:22,840 --> 00:50:24,920 Speaker 6: been working hard on that. You know, our people are 1058 00:50:24,960 --> 00:50:29,360 Speaker 6: working hard with our clients and we've seen some really 1059 00:50:29,480 --> 00:50:34,280 Speaker 6: encouraging early signs. You know, even in the last six months. 1060 00:50:34,560 --> 00:50:37,000 Speaker 6: We've made a number of changes over the last eighteen 1061 00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:39,720 Speaker 6: months that we're starting to see the impact of good 1062 00:50:39,800 --> 00:50:43,120 Speaker 6: particularly people getting back to work earlier with those less 1063 00:50:43,120 --> 00:50:44,120 Speaker 6: serious injuries. 1064 00:50:44,120 --> 00:50:48,000 Speaker 2: Because encouraging. Here's my problem, having followed this for years, 1065 00:50:48,520 --> 00:50:51,759 Speaker 2: we used to be a basket case. Then you got 1066 00:50:51,800 --> 00:50:54,279 Speaker 2: it together and it was off the radar and you're 1067 00:50:54,320 --> 00:50:56,200 Speaker 2: actually in the black, and we're all happy and then 1068 00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:58,319 Speaker 2: all of a sudden, bang it seven million dollars, the 1069 00:50:58,360 --> 00:50:59,800 Speaker 2: seven billion dollars in the hole again. 1070 00:51:02,040 --> 00:51:04,200 Speaker 6: Yeah, and as you said at the beginning that that 1071 00:51:04,320 --> 00:51:07,719 Speaker 6: numbers based on a lot of assumptions. You know, we 1072 00:51:07,760 --> 00:51:10,399 Speaker 6: also need to remember we've got an investment fund that's 1073 00:51:10,480 --> 00:51:14,160 Speaker 6: designed to partially offset that, and our investment fund increased 1074 00:51:14,200 --> 00:51:18,080 Speaker 6: by around four billion dollars last year. And we also, 1075 00:51:18,320 --> 00:51:22,960 Speaker 6: you know, are in the process of consulting and recommending 1076 00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:26,399 Speaker 6: on levy increases. So levys have been held flat or 1077 00:51:27,360 --> 00:51:31,600 Speaker 6: really flat or reducing for the last decade, or costs 1078 00:51:31,640 --> 00:51:35,320 Speaker 6: have been increasing, and so this is a slow moving ship, 1079 00:51:36,160 --> 00:51:38,279 Speaker 6: and so you know, we need to make sure that 1080 00:51:38,360 --> 00:51:41,759 Speaker 6: over the long term we've got the settings right to 1081 00:51:41,880 --> 00:51:45,520 Speaker 6: balance how much the scheme's costing and how much money 1082 00:51:45,520 --> 00:51:47,000 Speaker 6: we've coming in. We've got coming in. 1083 00:51:47,280 --> 00:51:49,080 Speaker 2: We got too many people who are sick. I mean, 1084 00:51:49,160 --> 00:51:51,560 Speaker 2: I'm just astonished every time I go to the doctor 1085 00:51:51,640 --> 00:51:55,880 Speaker 2: or hospital acc people are falling over themselves with illness injuries. 1086 00:51:56,040 --> 00:51:58,920 Speaker 2: I'm fifty nine years old, Megan, I've never claimed ACC 1087 00:51:59,040 --> 00:52:00,720 Speaker 2: in my life. A sort of freak. 1088 00:52:02,520 --> 00:52:07,000 Speaker 6: Oh, Mike, You're certainly not a freak, you know. Interestingly, 1089 00:52:07,040 --> 00:52:09,680 Speaker 6: though you talk about people falling over. You know, falls 1090 00:52:09,719 --> 00:52:12,280 Speaker 6: are the most common cause of injuries in New Zealand 1091 00:52:12,360 --> 00:52:16,439 Speaker 6: around forty percent. And so if we could all stop falling. 1092 00:52:16,120 --> 00:52:24,640 Speaker 2: Over, if we've learned nothing else out of the interview today, Megan, 1093 00:52:25,480 --> 00:52:29,080 Speaker 2: stop falling over. Please have a good day. Meghan Main, 1094 00:52:29,160 --> 00:52:32,400 Speaker 2: who's the ACC chief executive. See so one, I'm not 1095 00:52:32,440 --> 00:52:34,600 Speaker 2: a freak and you've got to stop calling me that 1096 00:52:35,160 --> 00:52:36,240 Speaker 2: because Megan says. 1097 00:52:36,000 --> 00:52:37,560 Speaker 22: Well, that's one woman's opinion. 1098 00:52:37,840 --> 00:52:38,680 Speaker 2: Very important woman. 1099 00:52:39,680 --> 00:52:41,759 Speaker 22: I think it's the only person I've ever done matter. 1100 00:52:41,880 --> 00:52:43,840 Speaker 2: She is on the radio, heard by hundreds of thousands 1101 00:52:43,840 --> 00:52:45,640 Speaker 2: of people. I'm not a freak, and You've got to 1102 00:52:45,680 --> 00:52:48,799 Speaker 2: stop falling over. Sixteen to eight the. 1103 00:52:48,960 --> 00:52:53,359 Speaker 1: Mike Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered by 1104 00:52:53,440 --> 00:52:53,960 Speaker 1: News Talks. 1105 00:52:53,960 --> 00:52:57,080 Speaker 2: It be very very good point, Mike. I'm sure that 1106 00:52:57,160 --> 00:52:59,319 Speaker 2: a few weeks ago you announced that the misses had 1107 00:52:59,320 --> 00:53:01,960 Speaker 2: convinced you to claim a general medical complaint as ACC. 1108 00:53:02,160 --> 00:53:04,560 Speaker 2: You are right, You're one hundred percent correct. That was 1109 00:53:04,880 --> 00:53:06,759 Speaker 2: It wasn't a few weeks ago, it was months ago. 1110 00:53:07,239 --> 00:53:08,960 Speaker 2: It's when I went along to the doctor to the 1111 00:53:08,960 --> 00:53:12,279 Speaker 2: physio for the for the for the frozen shoulder slash 1112 00:53:12,560 --> 00:53:16,320 Speaker 2: beside us, and he and I said, I'm not claiming 1113 00:53:16,360 --> 00:53:19,399 Speaker 2: acc This is crap. This is not an accident. Something's happened. 1114 00:53:19,400 --> 00:53:21,440 Speaker 2: I don't know what, but we're not bothering the acc 1115 00:53:22,000 --> 00:53:24,720 Speaker 2: I went home, got an ear for which caused another injury. 1116 00:53:24,840 --> 00:53:27,240 Speaker 22: Did or did she not say? Don't be a freak? 1117 00:53:28,840 --> 00:53:31,400 Speaker 2: Actually could be that? Yeah, could have said that anyway, 1118 00:53:31,440 --> 00:53:33,400 Speaker 2: So I did so that I think was ninety bucks 1119 00:53:33,400 --> 00:53:36,040 Speaker 2: in the end. So I've troubled acc in my forty 1120 00:53:36,080 --> 00:53:37,839 Speaker 2: two forty three years worth of work to the tune 1121 00:53:37,840 --> 00:53:41,880 Speaker 2: of ninety dollars so far in counting now. Jeff Jeff Mortlock, 1122 00:53:42,400 --> 00:53:44,600 Speaker 2: once upon a time worked at the Reserve Bank. Jeff's 1123 00:53:44,600 --> 00:53:47,520 Speaker 2: our hero of the week the government, he said yesterday 1124 00:53:47,520 --> 00:53:49,200 Speaker 2: in front of a select committee. The government has got 1125 00:53:49,239 --> 00:53:52,440 Speaker 2: a select committee looking into banking practices, generally emphasis on 1126 00:53:52,480 --> 00:53:55,239 Speaker 2: the rural treatment at the moment, Are banks treating people well? 1127 00:53:55,280 --> 00:53:57,600 Speaker 2: All that sort of thing. Jeff turns up yesterday and 1128 00:53:57,640 --> 00:54:00,680 Speaker 2: he says the government should abandon any requirements for the 1129 00:54:00,719 --> 00:54:03,920 Speaker 2: Reserve Bank to have quote gender or ethnic balance on 1130 00:54:03,960 --> 00:54:05,799 Speaker 2: its board. And if you don't know this, they do. 1131 00:54:06,360 --> 00:54:08,759 Speaker 2: He made a submission to this particular Committee form the 1132 00:54:08,760 --> 00:54:11,640 Speaker 2: senior member of the Reserve Bank's Economics Department. The Bank 1133 00:54:11,680 --> 00:54:13,640 Speaker 2: Board needed to be and this goes to the inflation 1134 00:54:13,680 --> 00:54:15,880 Speaker 2: figure yesterday. It goes to what they've done to the economy, 1135 00:54:15,880 --> 00:54:18,280 Speaker 2: what they're doing to the economy, how they view the economy, 1136 00:54:18,280 --> 00:54:21,200 Speaker 2: why they make the decisions they do. The Bank Board 1137 00:54:21,239 --> 00:54:25,920 Speaker 2: needed to be quote fundamentally strengthened in terms of the 1138 00:54:25,920 --> 00:54:29,480 Speaker 2: balance of knowledge, skills and experience required to perform its function. 1139 00:54:29,800 --> 00:54:33,040 Speaker 2: It currently lacks directors with the requisite level of knowledge 1140 00:54:33,040 --> 00:54:37,160 Speaker 2: and experience in financial sector, regulatory and financial stability issues. 1141 00:54:37,400 --> 00:54:40,759 Speaker 2: It is poorly equipped to do its job effectively and 1142 00:54:40,840 --> 00:54:44,200 Speaker 2: has only been too evident in reading Reserve Bank annual 1143 00:54:44,200 --> 00:54:46,960 Speaker 2: reports over many years. The government needed to rectify this 1144 00:54:47,040 --> 00:54:50,879 Speaker 2: as a matter of urgency by appointing directors with in 1145 00:54:50,920 --> 00:54:55,920 Speaker 2: depth knowledge and experience in banking, insurance, financial stability issues. 1146 00:54:55,920 --> 00:54:57,480 Speaker 2: Now and hearing those words, you think, well, don't they 1147 00:54:57,520 --> 00:55:00,760 Speaker 2: already know? They don't. In doing so, the government should 1148 00:55:00,760 --> 00:55:04,680 Speaker 2: abandon the highly questionable approach of seeking gender and ethnic 1149 00:55:04,840 --> 00:55:09,440 Speaker 2: balance as the priority for bord appointments. The only balance 1150 00:55:09,520 --> 00:55:14,000 Speaker 2: needed on any board is the required balance of skills, knowledge, 1151 00:55:14,040 --> 00:55:21,120 Speaker 2: experience and judgment, gender, ethnicity and culture should always be 1152 00:55:21,200 --> 00:55:25,680 Speaker 2: subordinate to these fundamental matters and the fact that every 1153 00:55:25,760 --> 00:55:28,480 Speaker 2: single one of us lives with the decisions as made 1154 00:55:28,480 --> 00:55:31,360 Speaker 2: by people that he would argue are not up to 1155 00:55:31,400 --> 00:55:35,000 Speaker 2: it is bordering on a fiscal crime. I would argue 1156 00:55:35,080 --> 00:55:36,000 Speaker 2: ten away from eight. 1157 00:55:37,000 --> 00:55:39,640 Speaker 1: The Mike costing racist with the range rover. 1158 00:55:39,640 --> 00:55:42,600 Speaker 2: The laws be given away from it. So change coming 1159 00:55:42,640 --> 00:55:45,080 Speaker 2: to antarcdot changes which will mean a wider range of 1160 00:55:45,160 --> 00:55:47,720 Speaker 2: veterans can be honored. On the twenty fifth of April, 1161 00:55:47,760 --> 00:55:50,480 Speaker 2: the head of Veterans Affairs bernaed in mckenzie', Well, there's Bernardine. 1162 00:55:50,480 --> 00:55:50,920 Speaker 2: Morning to you. 1163 00:55:51,880 --> 00:55:52,440 Speaker 6: Good morning. 1164 00:55:52,880 --> 00:55:54,399 Speaker 2: Is this a bit slow? It's one of these things 1165 00:55:54,600 --> 00:55:56,080 Speaker 2: I'm looking at with the government at the moment. They're 1166 00:55:56,080 --> 00:55:57,799 Speaker 2: going to sort the legislation by the end of twenty 1167 00:55:57,880 --> 00:55:59,759 Speaker 2: five and it's going to be implemented by twenty twenty six. 1168 00:56:00,080 --> 00:56:01,680 Speaker 2: They move a bit quicker. Are you just happy they're 1169 00:56:01,719 --> 00:56:02,239 Speaker 2: moving at all? 1170 00:56:03,320 --> 00:56:03,480 Speaker 4: Oh? 1171 00:56:03,600 --> 00:56:06,440 Speaker 18: Really happy that this moving. What happened, Mike is that 1172 00:56:06,560 --> 00:56:09,840 Speaker 18: over the years New Zealanders have increasingly used and that 1173 00:56:10,040 --> 00:56:12,719 Speaker 18: day to remember and honor those men and women who 1174 00:56:12,800 --> 00:56:15,839 Speaker 18: have served in more recent conflicts. So you know, it's 1175 00:56:15,920 --> 00:56:19,239 Speaker 18: really timey that the Anzac Day legislation we'll catch up 1176 00:56:19,560 --> 00:56:21,960 Speaker 18: and explicitly recognize these men and women. 1177 00:56:22,200 --> 00:56:24,839 Speaker 2: Now here's the interesting thing. Anzac Day is my favorite day. 1178 00:56:24,920 --> 00:56:26,560 Speaker 2: That's the right word to use. It's the most sort 1179 00:56:26,560 --> 00:56:29,320 Speaker 2: of important day to me that we mark. But I 1180 00:56:29,480 --> 00:56:32,560 Speaker 2: always thought that if you served, you were on it. 1181 00:56:32,840 --> 00:56:35,120 Speaker 2: I mean, I didn't realize that there were some who 1182 00:56:35,320 --> 00:56:37,040 Speaker 2: did and some who didn't. Does it matter? 1183 00:56:39,400 --> 00:56:42,000 Speaker 18: It matters to those men and women who have put 1184 00:56:42,040 --> 00:56:45,480 Speaker 18: their life on the line for our country in really 1185 00:56:45,600 --> 00:56:50,400 Speaker 18: difficult and dangerous circumstances. To have this recognition would be 1186 00:56:50,560 --> 00:56:51,760 Speaker 18: fantastic to them. 1187 00:56:52,200 --> 00:56:55,359 Speaker 2: They say the government, this is mister penk that it's 1188 00:56:55,440 --> 00:56:57,920 Speaker 2: more complicated than we think, is it in terms of 1189 00:56:58,000 --> 00:57:00,279 Speaker 2: recognition and who to recognize them, who not? To rerect. 1190 00:57:01,640 --> 00:57:05,960 Speaker 18: Well to broadly recognized those from current conflicts. It is 1191 00:57:06,040 --> 00:57:09,160 Speaker 18: when you're talking about legislation. But the important thing about 1192 00:57:09,440 --> 00:57:11,920 Speaker 18: Zact Day is to look in to see that this 1193 00:57:12,080 --> 00:57:14,680 Speaker 18: is a time for us as New Zealanders to really 1194 00:57:14,800 --> 00:57:17,400 Speaker 18: recognize these people who have put their life on the 1195 00:57:17,480 --> 00:57:20,200 Speaker 18: line to save our country and to keep us safe. 1196 00:57:20,400 --> 00:57:22,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, could not agree more. Bernardine go Well appreciate it. 1197 00:57:22,880 --> 00:57:25,280 Speaker 2: Bernardine Mackenzie, head of Veterans' Affairs with US this morning, 1198 00:57:25,320 --> 00:57:28,560 Speaker 2: five minutes away from it, ask Harry just interrupted the program. 1199 00:57:28,640 --> 00:57:30,240 Speaker 2: She knows the rules around here do not interrupt the 1200 00:57:30,240 --> 00:57:32,080 Speaker 2: program when it's in full flow. But she bowled through 1201 00:57:32,120 --> 00:57:34,720 Speaker 2: the door. But she's special and different, so she's allowed 1202 00:57:34,760 --> 00:57:36,480 Speaker 2: to do that. But what she did remind me of, 1203 00:57:36,680 --> 00:57:38,320 Speaker 2: and it's a very good point, is she of course 1204 00:57:38,400 --> 00:57:42,320 Speaker 2: fell over, So in falling over and she got acc 1205 00:57:42,560 --> 00:57:47,680 Speaker 2: this Kerry Wood and Makaiber So she didn't initially take 1206 00:57:47,760 --> 00:57:50,120 Speaker 2: Megan's advice, but has learned her lesson. She's now given 1207 00:57:50,200 --> 00:57:53,080 Speaker 2: up the drink and she's also in the low heels. 1208 00:57:53,240 --> 00:57:57,600 Speaker 2: So she has fallen over, received acc but amended her ways. 1209 00:57:57,800 --> 00:58:00,520 Speaker 2: And that's an important lesson to learn. And it suddenly 1210 00:58:00,520 --> 00:58:02,120 Speaker 2: occurs to me. I thought, oh yeah, Kerry, I forgot 1211 00:58:02,160 --> 00:58:05,000 Speaker 2: about her. Then of course Helen, Helen, her producer, has 1212 00:58:05,360 --> 00:58:08,080 Speaker 2: fallen over as well. So that really when you look 1213 00:58:08,080 --> 00:58:10,440 Speaker 2: at the nine to noon program for part of the country, 1214 00:58:11,280 --> 00:58:14,240 Speaker 2: that's the whole program's fallen over. One hundred percent of 1215 00:58:14,280 --> 00:58:15,960 Speaker 2: the people on the nine to noon show have fallen 1216 00:58:16,040 --> 00:58:19,640 Speaker 2: over and received ACC. I have no evidence that Helen's 1217 00:58:19,680 --> 00:58:21,360 Speaker 2: amended her ways in any way, shape or form, and 1218 00:58:21,440 --> 00:58:24,480 Speaker 2: my strong suspicion, having known her for many years, if 1219 00:58:24,520 --> 00:58:27,800 Speaker 2: she hasn't. Unfortunately, and then we come to this program, 1220 00:58:27,880 --> 00:58:30,760 Speaker 2: of course, and Glenn has famous for falling over, and 1221 00:58:30,880 --> 00:58:32,960 Speaker 2: he's done it at least twice. So he fell Do 1222 00:58:33,000 --> 00:58:36,280 Speaker 2: you get acc for your scooter thing or not? I 1223 00:58:36,400 --> 00:58:38,520 Speaker 2: must have done yeah, I reckon. So he comes off 1224 00:58:38,560 --> 00:58:40,240 Speaker 2: as scooter many many years ago, so he gets the 1225 00:58:40,280 --> 00:58:42,000 Speaker 2: acc Now did he amend his ways? 1226 00:58:42,080 --> 00:58:42,520 Speaker 19: No? He did not? 1227 00:58:42,760 --> 00:58:44,320 Speaker 22: Yeah, no, I mean he didn't take scooter. 1228 00:58:44,400 --> 00:58:45,720 Speaker 2: He threw his scooter out, didn't you correct? 1229 00:58:45,760 --> 00:58:46,160 Speaker 16: To be fair? 1230 00:58:46,560 --> 00:58:48,880 Speaker 22: To be fair, Also, it wasn't my scooter, it was 1231 00:58:48,960 --> 00:58:49,480 Speaker 22: my daughter. 1232 00:58:49,440 --> 00:58:50,840 Speaker 2: Was stolen scooter. I wasn't stolen. 1233 00:58:50,880 --> 00:58:52,280 Speaker 22: I was sorry, that was not I gave it back 1234 00:58:52,360 --> 00:58:52,640 Speaker 22: to her. 1235 00:58:52,840 --> 00:58:55,680 Speaker 2: Right, Okay, So you stole your daughter's scooter, took it 1236 00:58:55,760 --> 00:58:58,120 Speaker 2: to work, got an acc claim. So he amended his ways. 1237 00:58:58,120 --> 00:58:59,040 Speaker 2: He's never been on a scooter. 1238 00:58:59,080 --> 00:59:00,640 Speaker 22: Still fell over without a scooter. 1239 00:59:00,760 --> 00:59:02,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, but then without a scooter, took a dog and 1240 00:59:02,400 --> 00:59:04,680 Speaker 2: then fellow some more. Have you stopped walking the dog? 1241 00:59:04,960 --> 00:59:06,160 Speaker 22: No, I'm not going at the dog. 1242 00:59:06,440 --> 00:59:08,360 Speaker 2: See you haven't sopped walking your dog, so you haven't 1243 00:59:08,360 --> 00:59:11,440 Speaker 2: amended your behavior, so just looking in the. 1244 00:59:11,680 --> 00:59:14,320 Speaker 22: In the and then of course Sam Brokers back, have you. 1245 00:59:14,400 --> 00:59:19,120 Speaker 2: Been on acc?

You write the stuff down. I refer to the 1268 01:00:26,880 --> 01:00:29,800 Speaker 2: extra teen chapters you write. You you're a believer in 1269 01:00:29,880 --> 01:00:33,400 Speaker 2: writing down what's happening in your life, why and for 1270 01:00:33,600 --> 01:00:34,280 Speaker 2: what value? 1271 01:00:35,680 --> 01:00:39,320 Speaker 13: Oh gee, it's a bit of a story. But it 1272 01:00:39,440 --> 01:00:44,640 Speaker 13: started when my grandfather passed away. And my grandfather, who 1273 01:00:44,800 --> 01:00:48,440 Speaker 13: was Irish, got involved in the IDA when he was 1274 01:00:48,480 --> 01:00:53,320 Speaker 13: a young fellow, and he had a fantastic interesting life 1275 01:00:54,360 --> 01:00:56,800 Speaker 13: and we had his stories throughout his life. He would 1276 01:00:56,800 --> 01:00:59,680 Speaker 13: share some of them, but he was quite quiet a 1277 01:00:59,760 --> 01:01:04,520 Speaker 13: bit his activities, and when he died there was nothing 1278 01:01:04,600 --> 01:01:08,640 Speaker 13: written down, and so there was no official record, if 1279 01:01:08,680 --> 01:01:11,760 Speaker 13: you like, of his life. And I said to myself 1280 01:01:12,720 --> 01:01:16,080 Speaker 13: that I would hate to do that because it's one 1281 01:01:16,120 --> 01:01:18,240 Speaker 13: of the missing links in life if you don't know 1282 01:01:18,360 --> 01:01:22,000 Speaker 13: what your heritage is. So I decided that I would 1283 01:01:22,080 --> 01:01:26,520 Speaker 13: write down my exciting life that I was having and. 1284 01:01:28,080 --> 01:01:30,760 Speaker 15: In one day write not a book. 1285 01:01:30,840 --> 01:01:33,560 Speaker 13: It was just going to write my story so that 1286 01:01:33,760 --> 01:01:38,240 Speaker 13: the generations behind me could read all about why I 1287 01:01:38,360 --> 01:01:41,040 Speaker 13: did the things that I did. And that's how it started. 1288 01:01:41,120 --> 01:01:44,240 Speaker 13: So I got these black books, things that you buy 1289 01:01:44,360 --> 01:01:47,920 Speaker 13: from the shop, and every time I'm on an airplane 1290 01:01:48,040 --> 01:01:51,080 Speaker 13: or whatever, if I get a minute spare, I'll write 1291 01:01:51,120 --> 01:01:53,919 Speaker 13: the day at the top of the page, and I'll 1292 01:01:53,920 --> 01:01:56,680 Speaker 13: write down all the things that have happened since the 1293 01:01:56,800 --> 01:01:58,480 Speaker 13: last time I wrote. And it could be a month, 1294 01:01:58,560 --> 01:02:01,000 Speaker 13: it could be two months, it doesn't matter. But when 1295 01:02:01,040 --> 01:02:03,080 Speaker 13: you write the date and you start writing things that 1296 01:02:03,080 --> 01:02:05,560 Speaker 13: have happened, you can remember all the stuff that happened, 1297 01:02:05,880 --> 01:02:08,360 Speaker 13: and you just need to put a bullet point. It 1298 01:02:08,440 --> 01:02:11,000 Speaker 13: doesn't need to be the whole story, just a bullet 1299 01:02:11,040 --> 01:02:15,200 Speaker 13: point that reminds you. And then one day the thing 1300 01:02:15,360 --> 01:02:18,160 Speaker 13: is to then just recorded or put it down. And 1301 01:02:18,240 --> 01:02:22,320 Speaker 13: I met a guy called Robert Toy in New Zealand, 1302 01:02:22,400 --> 01:02:25,240 Speaker 13: and I said, would you He was a freelance journalist, 1303 01:02:25,280 --> 01:02:27,680 Speaker 13: and I said, would you be interested in writing my story? 1304 01:02:28,600 --> 01:02:29,800 Speaker 13: And he said, yeah, no problem. 1305 01:02:29,880 --> 01:02:30,680 Speaker 8: So he did. 1306 01:02:30,800 --> 01:02:33,320 Speaker 13: But as he was writing the story, he said, man, 1307 01:02:33,920 --> 01:02:37,800 Speaker 13: this is such an interesting story that you should share 1308 01:02:37,840 --> 01:02:40,959 Speaker 13: it with other people, not just your family. And I said, 1309 01:02:41,480 --> 01:02:42,240 Speaker 13: I don't really care. 1310 01:02:42,320 --> 01:02:43,160 Speaker 8: That's not the point. 1311 01:02:44,160 --> 01:02:47,680 Speaker 13: In anyway, one thing led to another. The publisher got 1312 01:02:47,720 --> 01:02:49,840 Speaker 13: hold of it. They decided to publish it and it 1313 01:02:49,920 --> 01:02:55,360 Speaker 13: became very surprisingly, it became a number one best seller 1314 01:02:55,440 --> 01:02:58,000 Speaker 13: in New Zealand and we actually never released it in 1315 01:02:58,440 --> 01:03:03,720 Speaker 13: Australia for some reason. So anyway, the book was reprinted 1316 01:03:03,760 --> 01:03:08,360 Speaker 13: a couple of times, and on the fifth day, Josie said, look, 1317 01:03:08,400 --> 01:03:10,400 Speaker 13: we're going to have to reprint the book again. It 1318 01:03:10,640 --> 01:03:13,160 Speaker 13: just keeps selling. And I said, no, I don't want. 1319 01:03:13,080 --> 01:03:13,360 Speaker 8: To do that. 1320 01:03:13,560 --> 01:03:17,760 Speaker 13: It's too old. It's seven eight years old. Why don't 1321 01:03:17,760 --> 01:03:21,240 Speaker 13: we do a revised edition because there has been so 1322 01:03:21,520 --> 01:03:24,880 Speaker 13: much happen in the last seven years that I think 1323 01:03:25,480 --> 01:03:28,280 Speaker 13: there's a lot that people you know, the continuation of 1324 01:03:28,360 --> 01:03:31,800 Speaker 13: the story if you like. But also, Mike, I wanted 1325 01:03:31,960 --> 01:03:35,920 Speaker 13: to share. I genuinely wanted to share some of my 1326 01:03:36,160 --> 01:03:40,560 Speaker 13: business philosophies and tricks for want of a bit of term, 1327 01:03:41,240 --> 01:03:46,360 Speaker 13: because I'd started doing some university talks to young business 1328 01:03:46,600 --> 01:03:51,280 Speaker 13: entrepreneurs and I found that quite enlightening and they loved it. 1329 01:03:51,840 --> 01:03:55,080 Speaker 13: And so in the book, the new book, there's a 1330 01:03:55,200 --> 01:03:58,760 Speaker 13: chapter there a bit how simply you can make money 1331 01:04:00,280 --> 01:04:04,640 Speaker 13: in this life. It's not difficult, it's not complicated. In fact, 1332 01:04:05,400 --> 01:04:09,000 Speaker 13: it's very simple. It's it's it's you know it's I 1333 01:04:09,120 --> 01:04:11,120 Speaker 13: say it's easy, but a lot of people don't think 1334 01:04:11,120 --> 01:04:14,080 Speaker 13: it's easy. But I actually think it's quite easy to make. 1335 01:04:14,600 --> 01:04:16,200 Speaker 13: However much money you want to make. 1336 01:04:16,280 --> 01:04:20,080 Speaker 2: Well, there's a funny story in the book where you 1337 01:04:20,640 --> 01:04:22,760 Speaker 2: dreamed or wanted to make a million dollars a week 1338 01:04:23,600 --> 01:04:26,400 Speaker 2: and when you when you got the you couldn't believe. 1339 01:04:26,560 --> 01:04:29,920 Speaker 2: Are you driven by money or are you driven by success? 1340 01:04:30,960 --> 01:04:31,000 Speaker 19: No? 1341 01:04:31,280 --> 01:04:33,920 Speaker 13: Absolutely, no, I'm not driven by money. Money is a 1342 01:04:34,040 --> 01:04:38,280 Speaker 13: byproduct of hard work and good decisions, that's all it is. 1343 01:04:39,640 --> 01:04:41,520 Speaker 13: In fact, the more money you make, the more tax 1344 01:04:41,600 --> 01:04:44,240 Speaker 13: you pay, and you know, and the more the government 1345 01:04:44,360 --> 01:04:47,480 Speaker 13: hounds you for more money. So but no money. And 1346 01:04:47,600 --> 01:04:51,320 Speaker 13: I think that's evident because when I go on a racetrack, 1347 01:04:53,080 --> 01:04:55,680 Speaker 13: you're actually competing with a whole heap of other people 1348 01:04:55,760 --> 01:04:57,840 Speaker 13: that are all trying to do the same thing. So 1349 01:04:57,960 --> 01:05:00,520 Speaker 13: it's all about the game. It's all about you know. 1350 01:05:00,800 --> 01:05:05,760 Speaker 13: As a young feller, I managed to win a chess championship. 1351 01:05:05,800 --> 01:05:08,720 Speaker 13: I knew nothing about chess, but I quickly allowned how 1352 01:05:08,800 --> 01:05:12,280 Speaker 13: to play the game, and I won a championship and chess. 1353 01:05:12,360 --> 01:05:17,320 Speaker 13: So I've always liked the challenge and the winning. There's 1354 01:05:17,400 --> 01:05:20,360 Speaker 13: no better place to stand than on the podium. 1355 01:05:20,800 --> 01:05:22,560 Speaker 2: Well, there you go. Listen, Tony hold on a couple 1356 01:05:22,600 --> 01:05:24,720 Speaker 2: of moments, will you There's no better place to stand 1357 01:05:24,760 --> 01:05:26,800 Speaker 2: than on the podium. More with Tony Quinn in the 1358 01:05:26,840 --> 01:05:29,360 Speaker 2: Moment thirteen Past the Mic. 1359 01:05:29,240 --> 01:05:34,640 Speaker 1: Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio, coward By News Talks, EPI. 1360 01:05:34,720 --> 01:05:36,800 Speaker 2: News Talks A quarter past Age. I guessed as Tony 1361 01:05:36,880 --> 01:05:40,520 Speaker 2: Quinn the reissuing of the bog zero to sixty and beyond. Tony, 1362 01:05:40,560 --> 01:05:43,080 Speaker 2: you sort of answered it before, but to a degree, 1363 01:05:43,280 --> 01:05:46,040 Speaker 2: you come from a time and a place. You start young, 1364 01:05:46,160 --> 01:05:48,760 Speaker 2: you start with nothing, you make a fortune. Do you 1365 01:05:48,960 --> 01:05:52,520 Speaker 2: think a young person born ten years ago, fifteen years ago, 1366 01:05:53,080 --> 01:05:55,680 Speaker 2: in the world in which we now live, can still 1367 01:05:55,800 --> 01:05:57,480 Speaker 2: do that and live that story. 1368 01:06:00,680 --> 01:06:03,320 Speaker 13: I don't want to sound weird, but I actually think 1369 01:06:03,360 --> 01:06:07,760 Speaker 13: it's easier today than it's ever been. And the reason 1370 01:06:07,840 --> 01:06:11,640 Speaker 13: I say that is one of the main ingredients to 1371 01:06:11,840 --> 01:06:16,800 Speaker 13: be successful in life and business is to work hard. 1372 01:06:17,480 --> 01:06:19,360 Speaker 13: And I can tell you that when I was a 1373 01:06:19,440 --> 01:06:23,920 Speaker 13: young fella, I'm going to say a lot of people 1374 01:06:24,560 --> 01:06:27,920 Speaker 13: worked very hard because that was what they did, and 1375 01:06:28,040 --> 01:06:29,600 Speaker 13: so you were just one of the many people that 1376 01:06:29,720 --> 01:06:34,680 Speaker 13: worked hard. Nowadays, as I look around, as culture society 1377 01:06:34,760 --> 01:06:38,560 Speaker 13: has designed it, a lot of young people don't really 1378 01:06:38,680 --> 01:06:43,160 Speaker 13: work that hard, and so if they're prepared to work hard, 1379 01:06:43,720 --> 01:06:47,040 Speaker 13: it actually is easier for them. Now it's all different 1380 01:06:47,080 --> 01:06:49,520 Speaker 13: and a lot of young people going like Picca is. 1381 01:06:50,200 --> 01:06:55,200 Speaker 13: But working hard is really just that working hard and 1382 01:06:56,040 --> 01:06:59,360 Speaker 13: that doesn't mean digging holes for twelve hours a day 1383 01:07:00,000 --> 01:07:04,280 Speaker 13: means focusing on whatever you're doing for twelve hours a day. 1384 01:07:04,360 --> 01:07:07,160 Speaker 13: Twelve hours is a long time, and you can achieve 1385 01:07:07,320 --> 01:07:11,280 Speaker 13: so much in that time, and so I do. I 1386 01:07:11,360 --> 01:07:16,040 Speaker 13: think absolutely humans have done it all along their journey. 1387 01:07:16,160 --> 01:07:18,920 Speaker 13: You know, the generations before us, and I'm sure the 1388 01:07:19,040 --> 01:07:22,720 Speaker 13: generations after us will. The problem that we've got not 1389 01:07:22,840 --> 01:07:24,760 Speaker 13: the problem that we've got, but the issue that we've 1390 01:07:24,800 --> 01:07:29,680 Speaker 13: got is that the world keeps changing. You know, we 1391 01:07:29,800 --> 01:07:35,760 Speaker 13: had COVID, nobody saw that coming. We've got cryptocurrency. You know, 1392 01:07:35,880 --> 01:07:39,440 Speaker 13: nobody saw that coming, even you know, and what is that? 1393 01:07:39,720 --> 01:07:40,880 Speaker 15: And do we do? 1394 01:07:41,040 --> 01:07:44,000 Speaker 13: I understand it? No, but young people will understand it. 1395 01:07:45,280 --> 01:07:48,200 Speaker 13: I just spent ten days in Italy, and so what 1396 01:07:48,320 --> 01:07:51,920 Speaker 13: the Romans did two thousand years ago, it was fantastic 1397 01:07:52,040 --> 01:07:56,080 Speaker 13: that they did. So no, I think young people today 1398 01:07:56,480 --> 01:08:00,640 Speaker 13: can certainly make their way in life very successful. And 1399 01:08:00,760 --> 01:08:04,400 Speaker 13: you know, I mean you and I make we wonder 1400 01:08:04,840 --> 01:08:09,959 Speaker 13: at YouTube stars and Instagram influences of that just wasn't 1401 01:08:10,040 --> 01:08:11,880 Speaker 13: a career choice when we were at school. 1402 01:08:12,960 --> 01:08:17,240 Speaker 2: It is what's your thinking around family and wealth in 1403 01:08:17,360 --> 01:08:20,479 Speaker 2: terms of do you help your family now because you 1404 01:08:20,640 --> 01:08:23,280 Speaker 2: can more than you might have, or do they have 1405 01:08:23,360 --> 01:08:24,479 Speaker 2: to make their own way in the world. 1406 01:08:25,760 --> 01:08:28,440 Speaker 13: Nobody knows the answer to that. Make it's a conundrum 1407 01:08:28,520 --> 01:08:33,439 Speaker 13: that everybody that's been successful and made money and life 1408 01:08:33,560 --> 01:08:35,400 Speaker 13: is not about money. It's just one of the things. 1409 01:08:35,479 --> 01:08:38,439 Speaker 13: But money is a tool and it can be used 1410 01:08:38,800 --> 01:08:42,200 Speaker 13: in a positive fashion or it can be used in 1411 01:08:42,280 --> 01:08:45,120 Speaker 13: a negative kind of fashion, and nobody knows the answer. 1412 01:08:45,560 --> 01:08:50,000 Speaker 13: I've spoken to many, many successful, wealthy people, and we 1413 01:08:50,160 --> 01:08:52,439 Speaker 13: all wonder what the best thing to do is with 1414 01:08:52,600 --> 01:08:58,719 Speaker 13: our families. I chose to basically give my family enough 1415 01:08:58,880 --> 01:09:03,600 Speaker 13: wealth that they can do do something with earlier in 1416 01:09:03,720 --> 01:09:07,960 Speaker 13: life because they had achieved, they had helped build my empair, 1417 01:09:08,439 --> 01:09:10,400 Speaker 13: and so I gave them a share of it early 1418 01:09:10,840 --> 01:09:13,360 Speaker 13: so they could go on and achieve things in their life. 1419 01:09:13,600 --> 01:09:16,400 Speaker 13: And they've all done different things, so you know, nobody 1420 01:09:16,439 --> 01:09:19,080 Speaker 13: can tell that one. I don't know what the answer is. 1421 01:09:19,360 --> 01:09:21,040 Speaker 2: One of the things you have done is giving back 1422 01:09:21,080 --> 01:09:23,000 Speaker 2: to motor racing in this country, of course, and you've 1423 01:09:23,000 --> 01:09:25,320 Speaker 2: set up various foundations. You're helping a lot of people. 1424 01:09:25,800 --> 01:09:27,479 Speaker 2: And one of the people you helped early on as 1425 01:09:27,560 --> 01:09:30,479 Speaker 2: a young man called Liam Lawson, who this coming weekend 1426 01:09:30,640 --> 01:09:33,040 Speaker 2: is turning up in Austin, Texas. And you must be 1427 01:09:33,200 --> 01:09:35,719 Speaker 2: as we all are, as excited as anybody. 1428 01:09:36,880 --> 01:09:39,240 Speaker 13: Yeah, I mean, Liam's a great driver and he proved 1429 01:09:39,320 --> 01:09:42,439 Speaker 13: himself actually at Highlands at the Grand Prix when he 1430 01:09:42,560 --> 01:09:46,599 Speaker 13: passed Marcus Armstrong on the outside of the last corner, 1431 01:09:46,640 --> 01:09:49,280 Speaker 13: which is a very brave move to do, especially in 1432 01:09:49,320 --> 01:09:51,800 Speaker 13: the damp. So he got signed up by Red Bull 1433 01:09:51,880 --> 01:09:55,599 Speaker 13: the next week.

Start with nothing, work hard, 1500 01:13:05,960 --> 01:13:09,639 Speaker 2: take some risks, some pay off, some don't. The question 1501 01:13:09,720 --> 01:13:11,200 Speaker 2: I didn't get around to asking, you know, I must 1502 01:13:11,800 --> 01:13:13,280 Speaker 2: sometime in future when we talked to him, so he 1503 01:13:13,760 --> 01:13:17,640 Speaker 2: got you bought the RJ's licorice and Darryl Lee. You know, 1504 01:13:17,760 --> 01:13:19,960 Speaker 2: these are names that you'll recognize. He was in the 1505 01:13:20,000 --> 01:13:22,320 Speaker 2: pet food though. And it's that interesting thing in life, 1506 01:13:22,479 --> 01:13:26,439 Speaker 2: whether you want to chase success or whether you're driven 1507 01:13:26,520 --> 01:13:28,439 Speaker 2: by the individual products. See I mean I look at 1508 01:13:28,520 --> 01:13:30,840 Speaker 2: him now and he owns all these race tracks. I mean, 1509 01:13:30,840 --> 01:13:32,640 Speaker 2: who doesn't want to own racetracks? I mean, what a 1510 01:13:32,720 --> 01:13:33,120 Speaker 2: cool job? 1511 01:13:33,280 --> 01:13:33,640 Speaker 8: What do you do? 1512 01:13:33,760 --> 01:13:37,000 Speaker 2: Owned some racetracks? But is it still cool when you go, well, 1513 01:13:37,000 --> 01:13:39,120 Speaker 2: I own a pet food shop. You know, eh, pet 1514 01:13:39,200 --> 01:13:42,720 Speaker 2: food so interesting? I mean are you driven by the 1515 01:13:42,880 --> 01:13:45,880 Speaker 2: product itself or what you're doing specifically, or is it 1516 01:13:46,040 --> 01:13:47,880 Speaker 2: just the general idea that you're meeting a market and 1517 01:13:48,080 --> 01:13:50,160 Speaker 2: you know, selling people stuff they want. My great interview 1518 01:13:50,200 --> 01:13:52,160 Speaker 2: with Tony sounds like the guy I'd like to sit 1519 01:13:52,280 --> 01:13:54,640 Speaker 2: down and yarn with for a while. I'll go by 1520 01:13:54,760 --> 01:13:58,400 Speaker 2: the book. I would recommend it. This business that Kea 1521 01:13:58,479 --> 01:13:59,920 Speaker 2: Starm has come up with, he's come up with a 1522 01:14:00,040 --> 01:14:02,599 Speaker 2: lot of weird stuff and he's only been in charge 1523 01:14:02,600 --> 01:14:04,639 Speaker 2: for about one hundred and three or four days. He's 1524 01:14:04,720 --> 01:14:09,880 Speaker 2: going to give large people who are unemployed free weight jabs. 1525 01:14:10,360 --> 01:14:12,040 Speaker 2: So it's not as Zimpa, it's the other one. It's 1526 01:14:12,120 --> 01:14:15,000 Speaker 2: maduro whatever they call it. So if you're unemployed and 1527 01:14:15,040 --> 01:14:17,560 Speaker 2: if you're overweight, the government will pay for you to 1528 01:14:17,640 --> 01:14:20,840 Speaker 2: get thin. Is that fair? If you're overweight and working 1529 01:14:20,880 --> 01:14:23,400 Speaker 2: hard but can't afford the jab, how does that work? Anyway? 1530 01:14:23,479 --> 01:14:25,479 Speaker 2: Rod Little as well as out of the UK after 1531 01:14:25,520 --> 01:14:28,440 Speaker 2: the News, which is next, You're on the Mike Costing rods. 1532 01:14:34,040 --> 01:14:39,000 Speaker 1: By News Bold Opinions the mic Hosking breakfast with the 1533 01:14:39,160 --> 01:14:42,000 Speaker 1: Range Rover Villa designed to intrigue. 1534 01:14:42,080 --> 01:14:44,479 Speaker 22: Can use Tom sed b Mike. 1535 01:14:44,560 --> 01:14:46,880 Speaker 2: My seventeen year old grandson, Cameron Hillton is off to 1536 01:14:46,920 --> 01:14:49,280 Speaker 2: go go karting the World Champs in Italy. He left yesterday. 1537 01:14:49,320 --> 01:14:51,599 Speaker 2: Well you must be very proud, and I'm sure you're 1538 01:14:51,680 --> 01:14:56,120 Speaker 2: very excited, and can I just say I stumble upon yesterday. 1539 01:14:56,439 --> 01:14:59,439 Speaker 2: David Dickers is a name you probably should acquaint yourself 1540 01:14:59,479 --> 01:15:01,599 Speaker 2: with because he parks himself in the middle of Canterbury 1541 01:15:01,640 --> 01:15:05,560 Speaker 2: and he's an extraordinary story, interesting bloke, eclectic as so 1542 01:15:05,680 --> 01:15:07,960 Speaker 2: many successful people are. But he made money or was 1543 01:15:08,000 --> 01:15:10,800 Speaker 2: making money in the data world. And he's Australian. But 1544 01:15:10,880 --> 01:15:13,639 Speaker 2: he parked himself at Mount Lyford and the facility he's 1545 01:15:13,680 --> 01:15:15,200 Speaker 2: got there and he makes the road in cars and 1546 01:15:15,280 --> 01:15:19,320 Speaker 2: roadent cars behind various races, including Lewis Sharp and Liam Lawson. 1547 01:15:19,920 --> 01:15:23,080 Speaker 2: He I discovered yesterday and what I poge you call 1548 01:15:23,160 --> 01:15:26,040 Speaker 2: the podcast. He was chatting away about life and times, 1549 01:15:26,240 --> 01:15:29,600 Speaker 2: couple of interesting things. And because he's laconic and Australian 1550 01:15:29,720 --> 01:15:31,320 Speaker 2: and he's got that kind of I don't care what 1551 01:15:31,400 --> 01:15:33,720 Speaker 2: I say vibe about him. He gave away what I 1552 01:15:33,760 --> 01:15:37,400 Speaker 2: thought were really interesting numbers. Louis Sharp and I refer 1553 01:15:37,520 --> 01:15:39,320 Speaker 2: to the cart and carting is the only motor racing 1554 01:15:39,400 --> 01:15:42,599 Speaker 2: you can do on a wage or a salary. Regular 1555 01:15:42,680 --> 01:15:45,160 Speaker 2: people kids can go go karting, but once you get 1556 01:15:45,200 --> 01:15:48,040 Speaker 2: beyond that, if you're any good, you need so much money. 1557 01:15:48,080 --> 01:15:50,920 Speaker 2: It's not funny. He's funding Louis Sharp, and Louis Sharp's 1558 01:15:50,920 --> 01:15:53,000 Speaker 2: been running in the domestic the GP three and won 1559 01:15:53,080 --> 01:15:56,960 Speaker 2: it in Britain, and that seat costs nine hundred thousand 1560 01:15:57,000 --> 01:15:59,120 Speaker 2: dollars a year. Most families don't have nine hundred thousand 1561 01:15:59,160 --> 01:16:01,720 Speaker 2: dollars a year. So people like David Dicker's sponsor, people 1562 01:16:01,800 --> 01:16:04,240 Speaker 2: like Louis next portter call maybe something like F two, 1563 01:16:04,720 --> 01:16:07,439 Speaker 2: which is where Liam's been before, Marcus Armstrong's been before. 1564 01:16:07,520 --> 01:16:10,360 Speaker 2: That's it costs you one point three million euro so 1565 01:16:10,920 --> 01:16:13,080 Speaker 2: good as two and a half million New Zealand dollars. 1566 01:16:13,160 --> 01:16:14,599 Speaker 2: You don't have that either, so you need to find 1567 01:16:14,640 --> 01:16:17,040 Speaker 2: somebody to do it. He put money behind Liam Lawson, 1568 01:16:17,400 --> 01:16:19,840 Speaker 2: did David Dickers. He's put a million bucks behind Liam 1569 01:16:19,920 --> 01:16:22,720 Speaker 2: Lawson and normally these numbers are all confidential, but he 1570 01:16:22,840 --> 01:16:25,599 Speaker 2: said it's all upside to red Bull he gets nothing back. 1571 01:16:25,840 --> 01:16:28,559 Speaker 2: If Lawson or Louis Sharp make it to F one, 1572 01:16:29,000 --> 01:16:32,600 Speaker 2: he might might get his money back. Apart from that, 1573 01:16:32,800 --> 01:16:36,840 Speaker 2: it's philan philanthropic basically at the end of the day. 1574 01:16:37,120 --> 01:16:39,200 Speaker 2: So it's an interesting insight. But he makes these roading 1575 01:16:39,280 --> 01:16:41,719 Speaker 2: cars and they're they're worth them all by themselves. Twenty 1576 01:16:41,760 --> 01:16:42,679 Speaker 2: one minutes away from. 1577 01:16:42,640 --> 01:16:46,840 Speaker 16: Nine International correspondence with ends and eye Insurance, Peace of 1578 01:16:46,960 --> 01:16:49,240 Speaker 16: mind for New Zealand business and brotting Rod. 1579 01:16:49,320 --> 01:16:54,519 Speaker 2: Little of morning to you now you are you excited 1580 01:16:54,560 --> 01:16:56,680 Speaker 2: about mister Tuckle speaking of sport? Is he the man 1581 01:16:56,800 --> 01:16:58,439 Speaker 2: for the day, or the age or the hour? 1582 01:17:01,120 --> 01:17:04,559 Speaker 15: Whoever takes up this poison Chalice has my full support, 1583 01:17:04,760 --> 01:17:09,439 Speaker 15: sympathy and benediction when they leave. I think he's a 1584 01:17:09,479 --> 01:17:12,160 Speaker 15: good idea. He's a very good football manager. He's been 1585 01:17:12,240 --> 01:17:16,680 Speaker 15: very successful, he's won tournament. The objections over here are 1586 01:17:16,840 --> 01:17:20,920 Speaker 15: a that he's had a rather tangled sexual life, which 1587 01:17:21,000 --> 01:17:23,680 Speaker 15: doesn't bother me at all. This is based on the 1588 01:17:23,720 --> 01:17:26,639 Speaker 15: fact that most famous manager Sir Ralph Ramsey, who won 1589 01:17:26,680 --> 01:17:29,840 Speaker 15: the World Cup, probably never had sexual intercourse at all. 1590 01:17:31,520 --> 01:17:34,839 Speaker 15: Number two is that he is He failed at Chelsea, 1591 01:17:35,439 --> 01:17:39,719 Speaker 15: but everybody fails at Chelsea. It's a club which would 1592 01:17:39,880 --> 01:17:42,400 Speaker 15: suck the last bit of light out of the universe. 1593 01:17:43,160 --> 01:17:47,600 Speaker 15: And thirdly that he's German, of course, but you know 1594 01:17:47,840 --> 01:17:51,280 Speaker 15: people who think that our football manager has to be 1595 01:17:51,640 --> 01:17:56,840 Speaker 15: directly descended from King Alfred. That boat has gone and 1596 01:17:57,040 --> 01:17:59,880 Speaker 15: went a long time ago. We've had sendure and ericson 1597 01:18:00,040 --> 01:18:03,840 Speaker 15: if Fabio Capello. This guy seems to be a good bet. 1598 01:18:04,840 --> 01:18:07,880 Speaker 15: I would slightly preferred it if it had been Pep Guardiola, 1599 01:18:09,200 --> 01:18:12,000 Speaker 15: But for a four million quit a year, I don't 1600 01:18:12,040 --> 01:18:14,120 Speaker 15: object to give to a Cherman good stuff. 1601 01:18:15,479 --> 01:18:17,280 Speaker 2: I want to get to the House of Lord's vote 1602 01:18:17,560 --> 01:18:21,040 Speaker 2: in a moment. But there's assist dying bill. How I 1603 01:18:21,200 --> 01:18:23,880 Speaker 2: assume it's as controversial beer as it is everywhere around 1604 01:18:23,880 --> 01:18:24,120 Speaker 2: the world. 1605 01:18:25,680 --> 01:18:28,120 Speaker 15: Well, you guys are a bit ahead of us here. 1606 01:18:28,160 --> 01:18:30,599 Speaker 15: I mean you went through for you in three, three 1607 01:18:30,640 --> 01:18:35,880 Speaker 15: or four years ago. It is controversial. It is subjected 1608 01:18:35,960 --> 01:18:40,559 Speaker 15: to the not quite clean but fairly clean left right 1609 01:18:40,680 --> 01:18:43,920 Speaker 15: split in that the left is by and large in 1610 01:18:44,000 --> 01:18:46,000 Speaker 15: favor of it, and it's being introduced as a private 1611 01:18:46,040 --> 01:18:50,680 Speaker 15: members will by a labor NP him led better. But 1612 01:18:51,080 --> 01:18:54,240 Speaker 15: it doesn't quite break down mycra We've had the Archbishop 1613 01:18:54,240 --> 01:18:58,719 Speaker 15: of Canterbury, Justin Welby, who made an intervention today and said, 1614 01:18:59,520 --> 01:19:03,360 Speaker 15: you know, it's slippery slope. There was no mention of 1615 01:19:03,520 --> 01:19:06,639 Speaker 15: the sanctity of life, which you might have expected from 1616 01:19:06,720 --> 01:19:10,240 Speaker 15: the head of our established church. By the same token, 1617 01:19:10,720 --> 01:19:15,880 Speaker 15: someone on almost as grave an ecumenical tower as Justin 1618 01:19:15,960 --> 01:19:20,120 Speaker 15: Wellby Esther Ransom, Dame Esther Ransom, she of That's life 1619 01:19:20,200 --> 01:19:24,280 Speaker 15: and so on, has also intervened. She is signed up 1620 01:19:24,320 --> 01:19:28,200 Speaker 15: to Digictaus in Switzerland because she has stage four lung 1621 01:19:28,320 --> 01:19:32,640 Speaker 15: cancer and which is not to prolong her existence for 1622 01:19:32,800 --> 01:19:37,400 Speaker 15: very much longer. So yeah, it's controversial, it's difficult, it's 1623 01:19:37,640 --> 01:19:42,000 Speaker 15: very very emotive. The bill will finally be debated at 1624 01:19:42,040 --> 01:19:46,519 Speaker 15: the end of November. But I think that the guests, 1625 01:19:47,160 --> 01:19:49,160 Speaker 15: looking from the way the public is and the way 1626 01:19:49,240 --> 01:19:51,040 Speaker 15: the Parliament is it will go through. 1627 01:19:51,560 --> 01:19:55,000 Speaker 2: As regards the Lord's vite, which is sort of on 1628 01:19:55,160 --> 01:19:59,120 Speaker 2: its mary way as well, Is that remotely controversial or 1629 01:19:59,240 --> 01:20:01,599 Speaker 2: just one of those bits of business that needed tidying 1630 01:20:01,840 --> 01:20:03,960 Speaker 2: up and sorting a long time ago and no one 1631 01:20:04,040 --> 01:20:04,840 Speaker 2: got around and doing it. 1632 01:20:06,720 --> 01:20:10,960 Speaker 15: I don't. I don't think there's an enormous amount of 1633 01:20:11,240 --> 01:20:17,080 Speaker 15: controversy in that. Uh you know, I think I think 1634 01:20:17,120 --> 01:20:18,840 Speaker 15: there's a lot going on at the moment which is 1635 01:20:18,960 --> 01:20:22,600 Speaker 15: problematic for the government, which is also obviously problematic for 1636 01:20:22,680 --> 01:20:27,880 Speaker 15: the opposition. And I don't say that it's scarcely registered 1637 01:20:27,920 --> 01:20:31,720 Speaker 15: over here, but then very often what what the what 1638 01:20:31,880 --> 01:20:34,880 Speaker 15: the House of Rules doesn't register over here at all? 1639 01:20:35,400 --> 01:20:37,920 Speaker 15: That other people are more interested than we are. 1640 01:20:38,880 --> 01:20:43,600 Speaker 2: Interesting that the weight loss jabs thing strikes me? Is 1641 01:20:43,680 --> 01:20:46,639 Speaker 2: that controversy because it's it's I get what Starr's watching 1642 01:20:46,680 --> 01:20:49,439 Speaker 2: Starmer and standing outside Number ten yesterday saying it's good 1643 01:20:49,439 --> 01:20:51,320 Speaker 2: for the health system, it's good for people, it's good 1644 01:20:51,439 --> 01:20:54,000 Speaker 2: all that. I get all that. But if you're overweight 1645 01:20:54,840 --> 01:20:56,640 Speaker 2: and your work but you don't have the money for 1646 01:20:56,760 --> 01:20:59,679 Speaker 2: the JEB, how is it by being the same size 1647 01:20:59,680 --> 01:21:02,519 Speaker 2: and yet jobless, the government will how does. 1648 01:21:02,439 --> 01:21:06,360 Speaker 15: It square Yes, it's very difficult, isn't it. It's very difficult. 1649 01:21:06,479 --> 01:21:09,679 Speaker 15: My argument has always been the way you get people 1650 01:21:09,720 --> 01:21:13,120 Speaker 15: back into the workforce is by making the difference between 1651 01:21:13,200 --> 01:21:17,479 Speaker 15: being on the dole and being in work significant and 1652 01:21:17,720 --> 01:21:23,040 Speaker 15: therefore an incentive. I cannot see uh. And I think 1653 01:21:23,040 --> 01:21:25,800 Speaker 15: the hereditary peers, by the way, might well have vote 1654 01:21:25,840 --> 01:21:30,439 Speaker 15: in favor of this. They're all last in size. But 1655 01:21:30,680 --> 01:21:35,720 Speaker 15: that's besides the point. I think. I don't think they've 1656 01:21:35,760 --> 01:21:39,200 Speaker 15: got this quite right. There is undoubtedly a movement in 1657 01:21:39,320 --> 01:21:42,000 Speaker 15: this country and across the world, and you've probably seen 1658 01:21:42,040 --> 01:21:47,920 Speaker 15: it as well, which which welcomes these weight loss drugs 1659 01:21:47,960 --> 01:21:50,640 Speaker 15: such as a zempit with open arms and thinks that 1660 01:21:50,800 --> 01:21:52,880 Speaker 15: it might be a panasy for all of our reals. 1661 01:21:54,439 --> 01:21:57,920 Speaker 15: It may well be. I'm not a I'm not a chemist. 1662 01:21:58,000 --> 01:22:01,680 Speaker 15: I'm not I'm not a physician. But I've read an 1663 01:22:01,680 --> 01:22:03,960 Speaker 15: awful lot about the good that it can do. What 1664 01:22:04,120 --> 01:22:08,000 Speaker 15: I don't think that it can do is is cure slow. Yes, 1665 01:22:08,360 --> 01:22:10,599 Speaker 15: if I can put it like that, I don't think 1666 01:22:10,680 --> 01:22:12,880 Speaker 15: that it will. I don't think that it can do that. 1667 01:22:13,400 --> 01:22:17,479 Speaker 2: No, exactly, we thought we might have moved on with 1668 01:22:17,600 --> 01:22:21,200 Speaker 2: the business of the freebies but he gets the tickets 1669 01:22:21,240 --> 01:22:23,479 Speaker 2: to the Swift concert. And I can't remember the name 1670 01:22:23,520 --> 01:22:25,160 Speaker 2: of the woman who was a minister who was on 1671 01:22:25,240 --> 01:22:27,040 Speaker 2: the radio the other day, who also got tickets to 1672 01:22:27,080 --> 01:22:29,479 Speaker 2: the Swift conference. And she was busy trying to justify 1673 01:22:29,560 --> 01:22:31,000 Speaker 2: the whole thing because they were difficult to get and 1674 01:22:31,040 --> 01:22:33,800 Speaker 2: the kids were whining they wanted to go. Then we 1675 01:22:33,920 --> 01:22:37,559 Speaker 2: come to Soakia, who gets the Swift tickets but then 1676 01:22:37,720 --> 01:22:39,120 Speaker 2: gets to meet Swift. 1677 01:22:40,560 --> 01:22:42,920 Speaker 15: Yes, it seems to be inconceivable that he would have 1678 01:22:42,920 --> 01:22:44,680 Speaker 15: been able to meet Swift had it not been for 1679 01:22:44,760 --> 01:22:47,479 Speaker 15: the fact that he answered. Carl and various other members 1680 01:22:47,479 --> 01:22:49,960 Speaker 15: of the Labor Party loved with the Metropolitan Police to 1681 01:22:50,080 --> 01:22:53,639 Speaker 15: make sure that Taylor Swift got a very good escort, 1682 01:22:54,840 --> 01:22:56,479 Speaker 15: the sort of escort you would give to someone like 1683 01:22:56,600 --> 01:22:59,599 Speaker 15: Vladimir reputed if he decided to come to the country. 1684 01:23:01,640 --> 01:23:05,439 Speaker 15: It's very difficult to argue otherwise. Because this all happened 1685 01:23:05,479 --> 01:23:09,920 Speaker 15: subsequent to that decision being made. He apparently had a 1686 01:23:10,320 --> 01:23:14,080 Speaker 15: ten minute audience with Her Highness. I don't know what 1687 01:23:14,160 --> 01:23:16,880 Speaker 15: they talked about. Hopefully he tried to tell her about 1688 01:23:16,960 --> 01:23:20,960 Speaker 15: his great British Energy Consortium, which will have riveted her 1689 01:23:21,040 --> 01:23:26,280 Speaker 15: to the spot for those ten minutes. But this is corruption. 1690 01:23:26,680 --> 01:23:30,240 Speaker 15: You know, it's very low level. You know, this isn't 1691 01:23:30,320 --> 01:23:33,759 Speaker 15: Russian oligarch stuff, but it is a form of corruption. 1692 01:23:34,160 --> 01:23:37,760 Speaker 15: And there were ten senior labor politicians who've got these 1693 01:23:37,880 --> 01:23:40,960 Speaker 15: freebies to go and see Taylor and sit in boxes 1694 01:23:41,040 --> 01:23:44,080 Speaker 15: and have a bit of shampers, you know, while listening 1695 01:23:44,120 --> 01:23:49,840 Speaker 15: to this vacuous drivel, and it just rubs the public 1696 01:23:49,960 --> 01:23:53,639 Speaker 15: up the wrong way, especially the people in the country 1697 01:23:53,680 --> 01:23:57,680 Speaker 15: who would have very much liked Taylor Swift tickets and 1698 01:23:57,840 --> 01:24:03,639 Speaker 15: were probably more appropriately aged, you know, ten or something. 1699 01:24:04,800 --> 01:24:06,639 Speaker 15: So it does play with the public. 1700 01:24:06,880 --> 01:24:08,640 Speaker 2: Yes, it does. Go well, mate, we'll catch up on 1701 01:24:08,760 --> 01:24:11,240 Speaker 2: the catch up on. I was going to say we'll 1702 01:24:11,280 --> 01:24:13,720 Speaker 2: catch up on Thursday, but given it's already Thursday, let's 1703 01:24:14,439 --> 01:24:17,000 Speaker 2: let's make it Tuesday, shall we? Fourteen away from eight. 1704 01:24:18,320 --> 01:24:21,640 Speaker 1: The Mike Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on I have 1705 01:24:21,920 --> 01:24:23,760 Speaker 1: Radio powered by News Talks at b. 1706 01:24:24,000 --> 01:24:26,880 Speaker 2: Where it is eleven away from nine. At last, we've 1707 01:24:26,920 --> 01:24:29,320 Speaker 2: woken the media up in this country after the Solicitor 1708 01:24:29,400 --> 01:24:31,599 Speaker 2: General talk. So far that we started on the program 1709 01:24:31,680 --> 01:24:33,640 Speaker 2: Monday and it's finally arrived in the Herald today. I 1710 01:24:33,680 --> 01:24:36,760 Speaker 2: think even Radio New Zealand woke from its slumber write 1711 01:24:36,760 --> 01:24:38,840 Speaker 2: a little something on the subject yesterday. This is the 1712 01:24:39,000 --> 01:24:43,519 Speaker 2: Solicitor General's instruction to the police prosecutors to quote unquote 1713 01:24:43,880 --> 01:24:47,160 Speaker 2: think carefully before they start charging too many marry about 1714 01:24:47,200 --> 01:24:49,719 Speaker 2: the place anyway, Audrey Young gets to it this morning. 1715 01:24:49,800 --> 01:24:54,880 Speaker 2: It is astonishing, good word, astonishing that a seasoned Solicitor 1716 01:24:55,000 --> 01:24:58,639 Speaker 2: General has got herself into political difficulty over the latest 1717 01:24:58,680 --> 01:25:04,280 Speaker 2: revision of the prosecution guidelines. Astonishingly good word. She did 1718 01:25:04,320 --> 01:25:07,360 Speaker 2: not foresee the political difficulty it would place the government in, 1719 01:25:07,680 --> 01:25:11,799 Speaker 2: or she did foresee and continued anyway, which is my argument. 1720 01:25:12,320 --> 01:25:14,639 Speaker 2: I believe you're getting pushed back from the public sector. 1721 01:25:14,840 --> 01:25:17,000 Speaker 2: She's been appointed by a number of people. She's an 1722 01:25:17,040 --> 01:25:20,040 Speaker 2: interesting woman. Chris Finlesson appointed a David Parker, reappointed a 1723 01:25:20,120 --> 01:25:22,799 Speaker 2: Judith Collins, re reappointed a Judith Collins. Out of the country. 1724 01:25:23,080 --> 01:25:24,280 Speaker 2: But I think it's all going to hit the fan 1725 01:25:24,320 --> 01:25:27,320 Speaker 2: when she gets back into the country. There are limits, rights, Audrey, 1726 01:25:27,720 --> 01:25:30,400 Speaker 2: to the independence of the Solicitor General, and her actions 1727 01:25:30,439 --> 01:25:34,879 Speaker 2: are inviting unnecessary tension in her relationship with the government. 1728 01:25:35,400 --> 01:25:38,400 Speaker 2: At the very least one would expect Crown Law's General 1729 01:25:38,479 --> 01:25:44,439 Speaker 2: policies such as prosecution guidelines not to conflict with government direction, 1730 01:25:45,120 --> 01:25:50,559 Speaker 2: Hella Frickin Louyah, somebody Else's Finally Spotted It nine to nine. 1731 01:25:51,320 --> 01:25:55,240 Speaker 1: The My Costle Breakfast with Alveda Retirement Communities. 1732 01:25:56,479 --> 01:25:58,200 Speaker 2: If you're thinking about your next holiday or you need 1733 01:25:58,280 --> 01:26:02,240 Speaker 2: some travel inspiration, today Expedia has unveiled the Unpacked twenty five, 1734 01:26:02,280 --> 01:26:04,720 Speaker 2: the annual data driven outlook for what's motivating travelers and 1735 01:26:04,720 --> 01:26:06,519 Speaker 2: where they're going to go next year.
