According to Justice Minister Paul Goldsmith, 86 00:04:14,893 --> 00:04:18,293 Speaker 3: so bailiffs and now trialing these hand held devices that 87 00:04:18,493 --> 00:04:21,253 Speaker 3: scan the number plates of park cars and determine whether 88 00:04:21,253 --> 00:04:25,093 Speaker 3: the owners have overdue court fines or reparations. Here's Paul 89 00:04:25,093 --> 00:04:27,813 Speaker 3: Goldsmith as he explained to Mike Coskien this morning how 90 00:04:27,813 --> 00:04:30,173 Speaker 3: the scanning of number plates would actually work. 91 00:04:30,253 --> 00:04:32,973 Speaker 5: Well, it's the court bailiffs who have it, and so 92 00:04:33,053 --> 00:04:37,413 Speaker 5: they'll be alongside the police at checkpoints from tonight in 93 00:04:37,493 --> 00:04:40,293 Speaker 5: some places and scanning things. And you haven't paid your fine, 94 00:04:40,493 --> 00:04:42,293 Speaker 5: you better get yourself an uber or something like that 95 00:04:42,333 --> 00:04:43,893 Speaker 5: to get home because your car can be clamped. 96 00:04:43,933 --> 00:04:44,893 Speaker 6: What are you going to do with the cars? 97 00:04:44,933 --> 00:04:46,893 Speaker 5: Well, ultimately they can be sold or they can be 98 00:04:47,093 --> 00:04:48,653 Speaker 5: held on to to people pay their fines. 99 00:04:48,813 --> 00:04:50,573 Speaker 6: Do you think there will be a lot of cars 100 00:04:50,613 --> 00:04:52,693 Speaker 6: actually clamped? In other words, will this be affected? 101 00:04:52,733 --> 00:04:54,693 Speaker 5: I hope there is, because of the message needs to 102 00:04:54,693 --> 00:04:56,693 Speaker 5: get through that. You know, the rest of the country 103 00:04:56,733 --> 00:04:59,253 Speaker 5: is sick of people not paying their fines and not 104 00:04:59,333 --> 00:05:02,213 Speaker 5: dealing with the consequences of the things that they've done. Well, 105 00:05:02,293 --> 00:05:04,573 Speaker 5: there you go, and there's millions and millions are owing, 106 00:05:04,933 --> 00:05:07,693 Speaker 5: and you know, if people just don't pay the fines, 107 00:05:07,733 --> 00:05:10,613 Speaker 5: then the just the system has no teeth. Tyler, Absolutely 108 00:05:10,653 --> 00:05:14,133 Speaker 5: no teeth. But have you been wrongly clamped? Because how 109 00:05:14,293 --> 00:05:17,973 Speaker 5: incredibly frustrating would being wrongly clamped. I've been wrongly ticketed before, 110 00:05:18,053 --> 00:05:18,973 Speaker 5: similar technology. 111 00:05:19,093 --> 00:05:23,813 Speaker 2: Yep. Just screaming around using cameras to to drift net everyone. 112 00:05:24,133 --> 00:05:26,693 Speaker 2: I'm not sure how I'm not really sure exactly how 113 00:05:26,733 --> 00:05:28,973 Speaker 2: I feel about it. I absolutely think that we should 114 00:05:29,013 --> 00:05:32,773 Speaker 2: be getting this money. These court finds back off people, 115 00:05:33,053 --> 00:05:34,493 Speaker 2: and it seems to be quite hard to do it, 116 00:05:34,533 --> 00:05:37,293 Speaker 2: and this would definitely hit people hard who aren't paying 117 00:05:37,293 --> 00:05:41,933 Speaker 2: their court court fines. But you know what else would 118 00:05:41,933 --> 00:05:44,333 Speaker 2: people start? If you haven't paid your taxes? Do they 119 00:05:44,333 --> 00:05:46,653 Speaker 2: start clamping? You know down there's a good point. You 120 00:05:46,693 --> 00:05:48,533 Speaker 2: know what else you haven't paid your rates? They start, 121 00:05:48,733 --> 00:05:50,133 Speaker 2: they start clamping you, you. 122 00:05:50,093 --> 00:05:53,773 Speaker 3: Know, child support clamp your house? Could could they clap 123 00:05:53,853 --> 00:05:54,173 Speaker 3: your kid? 124 00:05:54,333 --> 00:05:56,733 Speaker 2: Could they? Could they be just could this just be 125 00:05:56,893 --> 00:05:59,813 Speaker 2: that the start of wherever your car is, it's being 126 00:05:59,893 --> 00:06:03,013 Speaker 2: scanned for hundreds of different different things or do you 127 00:06:03,013 --> 00:06:05,293 Speaker 2: think it's bloody good? And you know a lot of 128 00:06:05,293 --> 00:06:09,813 Speaker 2: this this, these these court fines for victims, and those 129 00:06:09,893 --> 00:06:13,613 Speaker 2: victims are just not getting paid because the dirty criminal 130 00:06:14,133 --> 00:06:16,773 Speaker 2: that is just going to continue to just do what 131 00:06:16,813 --> 00:06:18,333 Speaker 2: they do, which is not follow the law. 132 00:06:18,493 --> 00:06:20,893 Speaker 3: Oh eight one hundred eighty ten eighty is the number 133 00:06:20,933 --> 00:06:23,773 Speaker 3: to care. How do you feel about this technology being utilized? 134 00:06:23,773 --> 00:06:26,373 Speaker 3: Do you think it is needed or do you think 135 00:06:26,373 --> 00:06:28,693 Speaker 3: the court system exists now and baylists can still go 136 00:06:28,773 --> 00:06:30,533 Speaker 3: round and knock on the door and say it's such 137 00:06:30,573 --> 00:06:32,613 Speaker 3: and such hair because he owes a lot of money. No, well, 138 00:06:32,653 --> 00:06:34,093 Speaker 3: we're going to come back and we're going to take 139 00:06:34,093 --> 00:06:36,173 Speaker 3: the furniture anyway, and maybe the car if we can 140 00:06:36,213 --> 00:06:36,573 Speaker 3: find it. 141 00:06:37,013 --> 00:06:38,613 Speaker 2: And I bet there's a lot of people out there 142 00:06:38,653 --> 00:06:42,013 Speaker 2: listening who have been wrongly clamped. Yeah. Yeah. And also 143 00:06:42,413 --> 00:06:44,133 Speaker 2: does it just lead you know, when they say there's 144 00:06:44,133 --> 00:06:48,173 Speaker 2: a lot of graffiti in a neighborhood, or there's a 145 00:06:48,213 --> 00:06:51,333 Speaker 2: car that's been stolen and it's got the you know, 146 00:06:51,773 --> 00:06:53,733 Speaker 2: it's got the right up on it, the stick it's 147 00:06:53,773 --> 00:06:57,213 Speaker 2: been sticked right. Yeah, it just leads to sort of 148 00:06:57,453 --> 00:07:00,613 Speaker 2: a vibe of urban decay. So if we've got a 149 00:07:00,613 --> 00:07:03,973 Speaker 2: bunch of people that don't want to play court fines 150 00:07:04,413 --> 00:07:06,493 Speaker 2: just having their cars clamped and they're just sitting on 151 00:07:06,533 --> 00:07:08,493 Speaker 2: the side of the road, I mean, is that is 152 00:07:08,533 --> 00:07:10,773 Speaker 2: that great?

Bertie 200 00:09:11,973 --> 00:09:14,612 Speaker 2: where I bought a car off a friend and he 201 00:09:14,653 --> 00:09:18,772 Speaker 2: had reported it stolen, but it hadn't been stolen. He 202 00:09:18,892 --> 00:09:21,012 Speaker 2: just just doing some work and he parked at a 203 00:09:21,053 --> 00:09:22,772 Speaker 2: strange place but he never got back to them say 204 00:09:22,813 --> 00:09:25,173 Speaker 2: that that that it hadn't been stolen, and then he 205 00:09:25,173 --> 00:09:27,093 Speaker 2: sold it to me. And then I was at a 206 00:09:27,773 --> 00:09:30,613 Speaker 2: I was at a checkpoint and they and I was 207 00:09:30,693 --> 00:09:32,772 Speaker 2: completely sober, obviously, but they were like, this is a 208 00:09:32,813 --> 00:09:34,493 Speaker 2: stolen car, and I was like, it's not a sole 209 00:09:34,612 --> 00:09:36,893 Speaker 2: car and there was no way to prove that I 210 00:09:36,892 --> 00:09:37,852 Speaker 2: hadn't stolen the car. 211 00:09:38,453 --> 00:09:42,933 Speaker 3: Oh no, so sorry, Berty, But yeah, what happened at 212 00:09:42,933 --> 00:09:43,493 Speaker 3: that point, Matt? 213 00:09:43,492 --> 00:09:45,532 Speaker 2: Did they take you to pull over? I was there 214 00:09:45,573 --> 00:09:47,532 Speaker 2: for ages and I was trying to get my mate 215 00:09:47,612 --> 00:09:50,413 Speaker 2: Duncan on the phone. I shouldn't use his name, Duncan. 216 00:09:51,093 --> 00:09:53,533 Speaker 2: If you're listening, sorry, I've already said it now, there's 217 00:09:53,573 --> 00:09:59,333 Speaker 2: no way out twice Duncan Coles. But anyway, bloody, bloody 218 00:09:59,372 --> 00:10:03,052 Speaker 2: Duncan hadn't hadn't rung the police back and said that 219 00:10:03,093 --> 00:10:04,893 Speaker 2: it wasn't stolen, because I think he was a bit embarrassed. 220 00:10:04,933 --> 00:10:06,333 Speaker 2: But yeah, So then then I was over on the 221 00:10:06,372 --> 00:10:07,933 Speaker 2: side of the road standing there, everyone that was going 222 00:10:07,933 --> 00:10:10,813 Speaker 2: past the I was a drunk driver and and then 223 00:10:10,813 --> 00:10:12,333 Speaker 2: I couldn't get old of Duncan and it was a 224 00:10:12,372 --> 00:10:14,732 Speaker 2: whole absolute larva. It took so long for me to 225 00:10:14,732 --> 00:10:17,852 Speaker 2: get out of there. So these kind of mistakes happened, Bertie, Yeah, 226 00:10:17,892 --> 00:10:18,613 Speaker 2: and I had. 227 00:10:18,453 --> 00:10:21,652 Speaker 10: The same thing you just reminded me because a friend 228 00:10:21,693 --> 00:10:26,852 Speaker 10: of mine, he reported his car stolen because it was stolen, 229 00:10:27,333 --> 00:10:31,893 Speaker 10: but I got it back from him. And in the meantime, 230 00:10:31,933 --> 00:10:34,132 Speaker 10: I was using it and I went to fill out 231 00:10:34,132 --> 00:10:37,413 Speaker 10: with petrol and the and the guy wouldn't let me 232 00:10:37,413 --> 00:10:40,693 Speaker 10: follow that with petrol, and I reckoned that he knew 233 00:10:41,453 --> 00:10:46,733 Speaker 10: somehow that it was a registration was a stolen vehicle, 234 00:10:47,612 --> 00:10:51,652 Speaker 10: but it was whipping ours and it wasn't actually I 235 00:10:51,973 --> 00:10:54,493 Speaker 10: But he did report it stolen, but I got it 236 00:10:54,573 --> 00:10:58,013 Speaker 10: back for him. I won't go into that, but anyway, 237 00:10:58,132 --> 00:10:59,133 Speaker 10: I got his car. 238 00:10:58,973 --> 00:11:00,012 Speaker 2: Back for him. 239 00:11:00,573 --> 00:11:03,493 Speaker 10: It was something funny at the petrol station, and they 240 00:11:03,492 --> 00:11:05,533 Speaker 10: wouldn't let me that. 241 00:11:05,533 --> 00:11:06,933 Speaker 11: It was really really weird. 242 00:11:07,732 --> 00:11:09,573 Speaker 2: So that did they talk to you and say they 243 00:11:09,693 --> 00:11:11,413 Speaker 2: did they give you any reason why they wouldn't need 244 00:11:11,492 --> 00:11:12,852 Speaker 2: for it up. They just they just said. 245 00:11:12,693 --> 00:11:16,492 Speaker 10: No, no, no, that's right. And I was thinking that 246 00:11:18,012 --> 00:11:20,933 Speaker 10: just adding one and one together, that it was about because 247 00:11:20,973 --> 00:11:23,813 Speaker 10: he would have reported it stolen. And maybe that's why 248 00:11:24,053 --> 00:11:27,933 Speaker 10: the suvice stations might know. I don't know, but my 249 00:11:28,053 --> 00:11:32,973 Speaker 10: fist point is people do honestly, they have like a 250 00:11:33,132 --> 00:11:36,693 Speaker 10: marketplace and stuff like that. You know, there might be 251 00:11:36,693 --> 00:11:39,693 Speaker 10: a thousand dollars five, you know, find out standing or 252 00:11:39,693 --> 00:11:41,093 Speaker 10: something and if you don't. 253 00:11:40,933 --> 00:11:45,333 Speaker 2: Know, yeah, you're going to approve that. Yeah, absolutely, think 254 00:11:45,372 --> 00:11:46,492 Speaker 2: if you're call Bertie. 255 00:11:46,293 --> 00:11:48,813 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a good point. I mean I'm a bit naive. 256 00:11:48,852 --> 00:11:51,213 Speaker 3: But can you find out what's going on a car 257 00:11:51,252 --> 00:11:52,293 Speaker 3: for free or do you have to pay a bit 258 00:11:52,333 --> 00:11:53,813 Speaker 3: of money for that when you buy a sicking in car? 259 00:11:53,852 --> 00:11:55,413 Speaker 2: Well, they're not going to clamp you for money owing 260 00:11:55,453 --> 00:11:57,813 Speaker 2: on the car, but they might clamp you if the 261 00:11:58,213 --> 00:12:01,973 Speaker 2: x owner of the car has finds owing. 262 00:12:02,173 --> 00:12:03,852 Speaker 3: Yeah, and I don't think that's easy to find out 263 00:12:03,892 --> 00:12:06,213 Speaker 3: because this whole bunch of privacy rules associated with that. 264 00:12:06,293 --> 00:12:08,813 Speaker 2: But as long as you change the ownership. 265 00:12:08,612 --> 00:12:11,372 Speaker 3: Yeah right, yeah, yeah, good point. 266 00:12:11,653 --> 00:12:14,213 Speaker 2: Yeah, Linda, your thoughts on this, I'm just gonna get 267 00:12:14,213 --> 00:12:15,813 Speaker 2: my head rond that if you've changed the ownership, then 268 00:12:15,973 --> 00:12:19,653 Speaker 2: then the then the license plate is a log lock 269 00:12:19,773 --> 00:12:21,852 Speaker 2: locked on you.

The bailiffs were at 411 00:19:19,573 --> 00:19:24,293 Speaker 16: the police checkpoints, right, and that was who they were targeting, 412 00:19:24,933 --> 00:19:28,333 Speaker 16: was these guys with fines. And it was amazing the 413 00:19:28,613 --> 00:19:31,413 Speaker 16: thousands of dollars that would turn up, you know, parents 414 00:19:31,453 --> 00:19:35,653 Speaker 16: turning up to pay fines and things like that.

It's the same with 417 00:19:43,533 --> 00:19:46,173 Speaker 2: parking now where you have the parking camera cars just 418 00:19:46,373 --> 00:19:52,173 Speaker 2: zipping around pinging people like dryfnetic people.

What happens 431 00:20:20,733 --> 00:20:23,933 Speaker 3: in that family scenario there, so that's a massive pain 432 00:20:24,013 --> 00:20:27,373 Speaker 3: in the butt for the parents because their son primarily 433 00:20:27,413 --> 00:20:29,693 Speaker 3: or sometimes Dora, has now lost their car, their ability 434 00:20:29,733 --> 00:20:32,733 Speaker 3: to get to work, their ability to carry on because 435 00:20:32,773 --> 00:20:34,573 Speaker 3: they owe a bit of money to the court.

One more thing kept to 512 00:24:23,293 --> 00:24:25,973 Speaker 2: one more and I can't believe how you all are 513 00:24:26,053 --> 00:24:26,653 Speaker 2: sucking up. 514 00:24:26,933 --> 00:24:30,093 Speaker 3: Okay, it's hard to fu gins early in the day. 515 00:24:30,133 --> 00:24:31,173 Speaker 3: You figure that one out. 516 00:24:31,373 --> 00:24:34,733 Speaker 2: Yeah, but no. But so they're saying, if basically what 517 00:24:34,773 --> 00:24:39,053 Speaker 2: she's saying, if Labor and the Greens were still in 518 00:24:39,133 --> 00:24:41,653 Speaker 2: power they were for six years and they were doing this, 519 00:24:42,773 --> 00:24:45,813 Speaker 2: she is suggesting that we'd be calling it granny state, 520 00:24:46,733 --> 00:24:50,933 Speaker 2: probably more likely nanny state. But historically speaking, Labor and 521 00:24:50,973 --> 00:24:56,653 Speaker 2: the Greens aren't as hard on crime as New Zealand 522 00:24:56,693 --> 00:25:00,853 Speaker 2: First National and Act, so it's not really their mo 523 00:25:00,893 --> 00:25:02,933 Speaker 2: o not to do this kind of thing. I wouldn't 524 00:25:02,933 --> 00:25:04,773 Speaker 2: think so, I don't think it's I don't think you're 525 00:25:04,813 --> 00:25:06,773 Speaker 2: right there. I don't think you're right. But we love 526 00:25:06,813 --> 00:25:09,213 Speaker 2: your opinion. Thank you so much for it, LEVI welcome 527 00:25:09,213 --> 00:25:12,733 Speaker 2: to the show. Yeah here you got Yeah, good mate. 528 00:25:12,733 --> 00:25:13,572 Speaker 2: What's your take on it? 529 00:25:14,693 --> 00:25:15,333 Speaker 11: I kind of want to. 530 00:25:15,333 --> 00:25:15,933 Speaker 4: Give a quick call. 531 00:25:16,213 --> 00:25:18,893 Speaker 18: It's kind of covering that I work in the kind 532 00:25:18,893 --> 00:25:21,093 Speaker 18: of car dealership scene. I've been in the industry for 533 00:25:21,133 --> 00:25:23,213 Speaker 18: about four or five years now, and to be honest, 534 00:25:23,253 --> 00:25:27,533 Speaker 18: there's quite a few issues for people who are buying 535 00:25:28,053 --> 00:25:31,173 Speaker 18: privately with our system of change of ownership I mean 536 00:25:31,253 --> 00:25:33,893 Speaker 18: finance being one of them. You know, you don't get 537 00:25:33,933 --> 00:25:36,973 Speaker 18: any warnings prior to buying a car that'll let you know, hey, listen, 538 00:25:37,013 --> 00:25:39,253 Speaker 18: there's there's a security on this vehicle, there's money owing 539 00:25:39,293 --> 00:25:41,693 Speaker 18: on it, or as you say, like tickets. 540 00:25:41,333 --> 00:25:41,973 Speaker 11: And things like that. 541 00:25:42,013 --> 00:25:44,613 Speaker 18: But another one that we've actually been dealing with recently 542 00:25:44,693 --> 00:25:46,973 Speaker 18: that's quite a big issue is you can walk up 543 00:25:47,013 --> 00:25:49,812 Speaker 18: to any vehicle, grab that number plate and stick it 544 00:25:49,813 --> 00:25:52,453 Speaker 18: into the change of ownership system and now, according to 545 00:25:52,533 --> 00:25:56,013 Speaker 18: nz inta system, you actually own that vehicle. So you 546 00:25:56,053 --> 00:25:57,973 Speaker 18: don't need to be talking to this person, making any 547 00:25:57,973 --> 00:26:01,493 Speaker 18: payments or anything like that, and you technically become an 548 00:26:01,493 --> 00:26:04,213 Speaker 18: owner of that vehicle even though you've done nothing. And 549 00:26:04,453 --> 00:26:07,013 Speaker 18: this is kind of a big part of the issue 550 00:26:07,013 --> 00:26:09,893 Speaker 18: that we deal with is the New Zealand change of 551 00:26:09,893 --> 00:26:13,213 Speaker 18: ownership system just really isn't up to spec. 552 00:26:13,653 --> 00:26:16,413 Speaker 2: So to get round say court fines, for example, would 553 00:26:16,413 --> 00:26:18,173 Speaker 2: it be very easy for someone just to change the 554 00:26:18,213 --> 00:26:20,853 Speaker 2: ownership of the car to I don't know, their partner 555 00:26:20,973 --> 00:26:23,053 Speaker 2: or their brother or cousin or something. 556 00:26:24,373 --> 00:26:25,413 Speaker 11: Yeah, so you could. 557 00:26:25,293 --> 00:26:27,253 Speaker 18: Kind of just change it to anybody's name that that 558 00:26:27,333 --> 00:26:28,533 Speaker 18: person they're not going. 559 00:26:28,493 --> 00:26:31,013 Speaker 2: To I see what you're saying, so, just some stranger 560 00:26:31,253 --> 00:26:33,973 Speaker 2: I could just change without telling Tyler. I could change 561 00:26:34,013 --> 00:26:38,653 Speaker 2: the ownership to Tyler. Next thing, you know, yeah, what 562 00:26:38,693 --> 00:26:39,133 Speaker 2: that happened? 563 00:26:39,213 --> 00:26:41,973 Speaker 18: Yes, that that or Tyler, for instance, could say Tyler 564 00:26:42,013 --> 00:26:43,813 Speaker 18: walked down the street and when I that that car 565 00:26:43,853 --> 00:26:45,693 Speaker 18: looks quite good, I'll put that in my name. Not 566 00:26:45,693 --> 00:26:47,093 Speaker 18: that he's obviously going to be able to drive the 567 00:26:47,133 --> 00:26:50,053 Speaker 18: car anything, but he could stick that rigeau plate into 568 00:26:50,133 --> 00:26:53,173 Speaker 18: the change of ownership system and then, according to ndtiates 569 00:26:53,213 --> 00:26:55,893 Speaker 18: their car. So I dealt with this recently with a 570 00:26:55,933 --> 00:26:58,973 Speaker 18: traveler from Europe who was down in the South Island 571 00:26:59,133 --> 00:27:01,053 Speaker 18: do some travel and a van, and she went to 572 00:27:01,053 --> 00:27:03,653 Speaker 18: come sell her car to us, and I just said, hey, listen, 573 00:27:03,693 --> 00:27:05,573 Speaker 18: I can actually see on our side that you actually 574 00:27:05,613 --> 00:27:06,133 Speaker 18: don't own the car. 575 00:27:06,173 --> 00:27:06,853 Speaker 11: It's not in your name. 576 00:27:06,893 --> 00:27:08,213 Speaker 18: She said, well, that's weird, because you know, I bore 577 00:27:08,413 --> 00:27:10,733 Speaker 18: car and I could see that she had at one point, 578 00:27:10,773 --> 00:27:14,813 Speaker 18: you know, the vehicle was in her name, but someone 579 00:27:14,813 --> 00:27:16,533 Speaker 18: had obviously walked on the street and just grabbed the 580 00:27:16,533 --> 00:27:18,813 Speaker 18: regiroplate stuck in the system, and then she had to 581 00:27:18,813 --> 00:27:21,773 Speaker 18: go through this whole kind of process of calling in 582 00:27:21,933 --> 00:27:26,093 Speaker 18: ZTA and getting them to prove that she's actually the 583 00:27:26,093 --> 00:27:28,333 Speaker 18: owner of the car to put it back into her name. 584 00:27:29,053 --> 00:27:32,373 Speaker 18: And it's not obviously a hugely common issue, but it's 585 00:27:32,413 --> 00:27:35,373 Speaker 18: definitely something that we deal with in the dealership side 586 00:27:35,373 --> 00:27:37,293 Speaker 18: of things. But especially with what you're talking about with 587 00:27:37,333 --> 00:27:40,453 Speaker 18: court fines and financing, I definitely think they need to 588 00:27:40,533 --> 00:27:42,853 Speaker 18: update it so that if you are buying privately, there's 589 00:27:42,853 --> 00:27:44,933 Speaker 18: at least a warning that pops up before you buy 590 00:27:44,973 --> 00:27:47,893 Speaker 18: the car. Do in the paperwork that says, hey, listen, 591 00:27:47,973 --> 00:27:50,653 Speaker 18: there is financing, because there just isn't you know, if 592 00:27:50,693 --> 00:27:53,533 Speaker 18: you're buying a car privately, you won't get those warnings. Obviously, 593 00:27:54,253 --> 00:27:56,333 Speaker 18: with buying from a dealership, you don't have any of 594 00:27:56,333 --> 00:27:58,333 Speaker 18: those issues because we do all the checks and obviously 595 00:27:58,373 --> 00:28:00,613 Speaker 18: all that. But as a private buyer, there is a 596 00:28:00,613 --> 00:28:02,813 Speaker 18: lot of risk going into that because there is just 597 00:28:02,933 --> 00:28:05,733 Speaker 18: no way for you to prove without, as that person said, 598 00:28:05,773 --> 00:28:08,973 Speaker 18: previously paying twenty dollars and getting a car jam. There 599 00:28:09,013 --> 00:28:11,493 Speaker 18: really is no free way to actually just check that 600 00:28:11,613 --> 00:28:12,293 Speaker 18: in the system. 601 00:28:12,613 --> 00:28:15,093 Speaker 2: It's interesting that that is so easy to do when 602 00:28:15,133 --> 00:28:18,213 Speaker 2: everything else is so incredibly complex. Just speaking from my 603 00:28:18,253 --> 00:28:20,733 Speaker 2: own perspective, when I had to recently get a parking 604 00:28:20,773 --> 00:28:22,413 Speaker 2: permit to park on the street in front of my 605 00:28:22,453 --> 00:28:24,453 Speaker 2: house so it didn't get towed when there were events 606 00:28:24,493 --> 00:28:26,933 Speaker 2: in the area. I basically had to strip naked, set 607 00:28:26,973 --> 00:28:29,733 Speaker 2: myself on fire, and climb to the top of the 608 00:28:29,773 --> 00:28:32,253 Speaker 2: tree and scream for three days to get it done. 609 00:28:32,893 --> 00:28:35,093 Speaker 4: And yet, yeah, I can imagine that, And yet. 610 00:28:34,933 --> 00:28:37,373 Speaker 2: This thing which seems so much more important than just 611 00:28:37,413 --> 00:28:39,493 Speaker 2: parking in front of your own house that your own 612 00:28:40,293 --> 00:28:42,213 Speaker 2: is so easy to do. 613 00:28:43,373 --> 00:28:47,253 Speaker 18: Yeah, it's definitely a big issue. I think our kind 614 00:28:47,293 --> 00:28:52,133 Speaker 18: of change of ownership system is very, very outdated, and 615 00:28:52,333 --> 00:28:54,933 Speaker 18: it really does need an update because it is just 616 00:28:55,013 --> 00:28:57,093 Speaker 18: yet one of those big issues that you deal with 617 00:28:57,853 --> 00:28:59,853 Speaker 18: private buyers. And obviously a lot of people don't have 618 00:29:00,613 --> 00:29:02,853 Speaker 18: the luxury of going to dealerships or they prefer to 619 00:29:02,853 --> 00:29:05,533 Speaker 18: buy privately sometimes and when you're going through that, you 620 00:29:05,573 --> 00:29:08,413 Speaker 18: definitely take on that risk of not knowing the on 621 00:29:08,493 --> 00:29:11,893 Speaker 18: a previous history of the vehicle. I mean, another big 622 00:29:11,933 --> 00:29:14,213 Speaker 18: one that we deal with it dealerships that I've met 623 00:29:14,373 --> 00:29:16,493 Speaker 18: many people who were never told because they bought the 624 00:29:16,533 --> 00:29:19,413 Speaker 18: car privately, is that it's very common for cars from 625 00:29:19,413 --> 00:29:22,173 Speaker 18: Australia to come into this country written off and they'll 626 00:29:22,173 --> 00:29:24,813 Speaker 18: get reregistered, but there'll be no tag that says, hey, 627 00:29:24,813 --> 00:29:28,573 Speaker 18: listen and this was a written off vehicle previously, and 628 00:29:28,653 --> 00:29:31,373 Speaker 18: someone will buy it with absolutely zero knowledge of that 629 00:29:31,493 --> 00:29:33,893 Speaker 18: happening previously. And I think that a big part of 630 00:29:33,933 --> 00:29:36,773 Speaker 18: that is just how outdated our system is. I definitely 631 00:29:36,773 --> 00:29:39,013 Speaker 18: think there needs to be some sort of change that 632 00:29:39,173 --> 00:29:41,533 Speaker 18: just allows a little bit more security for you know, 633 00:29:41,533 --> 00:29:44,373 Speaker 18: people who are buying vehicles privately, to not have to 634 00:29:44,453 --> 00:29:47,413 Speaker 18: worry so much and take on so much risk when 635 00:29:47,493 --> 00:29:48,973 Speaker 18: just you know, simply buying a car. 636 00:29:49,973 --> 00:29:51,893 Speaker 2: But do you have to have someone saying here, you 637 00:29:51,973 --> 00:29:54,413 Speaker 2: have to have the current owners driver's license number to 638 00:29:54,453 --> 00:29:56,493 Speaker 2: be able to change the vehicle ownership? Is that great? 639 00:29:57,373 --> 00:29:57,533 Speaker 4: No? 640 00:29:57,653 --> 00:29:58,173 Speaker 7: So yes? 641 00:29:58,293 --> 00:30:01,133 Speaker 18: In person. So there's there's a written format a dealership 642 00:30:01,173 --> 00:30:02,653 Speaker 18: if you were to go buy a car, If if 643 00:30:02,693 --> 00:30:05,213 Speaker 18: you've bought the car dealership, you'll fill out a form 644 00:30:05,293 --> 00:30:07,773 Speaker 18: and you'll have to have a driver's license start. If 645 00:30:07,773 --> 00:30:10,373 Speaker 18: you're doing it privately, you'll basically type into your phone, 646 00:30:10,493 --> 00:30:12,693 Speaker 18: I've sold a car, and you know, if you're the owner, 647 00:30:12,693 --> 00:30:14,653 Speaker 18: you'll fill out the performances that you were the owner 648 00:30:14,653 --> 00:30:16,373 Speaker 18: and you're selling it, and if you're buying it, you'll 649 00:30:16,413 --> 00:30:18,813 Speaker 18: fill out the site that says that you're buying it online, 650 00:30:18,973 --> 00:30:21,533 Speaker 18: but you can actually just do that I'm buying it 651 00:30:21,613 --> 00:30:23,693 Speaker 18: part and the owner doesn't even have to fill out 652 00:30:23,733 --> 00:30:27,013 Speaker 18: that I've sold it part. And in NZTA system you 653 00:30:27,093 --> 00:30:29,813 Speaker 18: are technically the owner. Now when it comes when you 654 00:30:29,933 --> 00:30:32,293 Speaker 18: kind of bury it down to everything, you still are 655 00:30:32,333 --> 00:30:35,813 Speaker 18: the official owner. But when it comes up into MCTA system, right, 656 00:30:36,173 --> 00:30:38,613 Speaker 18: the name of the current owner whoever just filled out 657 00:30:38,653 --> 00:30:39,533 Speaker 18: that form will be at. 658 00:30:39,493 --> 00:30:40,213 Speaker 19: The top of that list. 659 00:30:40,253 --> 00:30:40,453 Speaker 20: That is. 660 00:30:40,973 --> 00:30:43,533 Speaker 2: And then and then yeah, when the whole clamping things 661 00:30:43,533 --> 00:30:45,013 Speaker 2: comes into it, that could be interesting. Thank you so 662 00:30:45,093 --> 00:30:46,733 Speaker 2: much for your call, Leve. I really appreciate it. 663 00:30:46,733 --> 00:30:48,613 Speaker 3: Oh one hundred and eighty ten eighty Z number to 664 00:30:48,693 --> 00:30:50,173 Speaker 3: call the. 665 00:30:49,973 --> 00:30:53,933 Speaker 1: Big stories, the big issues, the big trends, and everything 666 00:30:53,973 --> 00:30:57,613 Speaker 1: in between. Matt Heath and Taylor Adams afternoons used talks 667 00:30:57,613 --> 00:30:57,973 Speaker 1: that'd be. 668 00:30:58,053 --> 00:31:00,013 Speaker 3: Quarter to two having a great discussion about this new 669 00:31:00,013 --> 00:31:01,173 Speaker 3: clamping technology. 670 00:31:01,293 --> 00:31:02,733 Speaker 2: So what it means is the bailiffs. 671 00:31:02,773 --> 00:31:05,453 Speaker 3: I've got the hand how little devices and if you 672 00:31:05,453 --> 00:31:07,213 Speaker 3: owe court fines and you go through a checkpoint or 673 00:31:07,253 --> 00:31:09,613 Speaker 3: they spot your car parked on the streets, they will 674 00:31:09,653 --> 00:31:10,133 Speaker 3: clamp you. 675 00:31:10,373 --> 00:31:11,893 Speaker 2: Well, I imagine it would work like this. You'd have 676 00:31:11,893 --> 00:31:14,813 Speaker 2: one of those cars that drives around at paced scanning everyone. 677 00:31:14,893 --> 00:31:17,093 Speaker 2: Then they contact a bailiff to do the final check 678 00:31:17,133 --> 00:31:19,613 Speaker 2: to make sure that there's something wrong, and then someone 679 00:31:19,613 --> 00:31:22,213 Speaker 2: comes around and clamps you. Right, Yeah, so they could 680 00:31:22,293 --> 00:31:23,893 Speaker 2: drift need a whole lot of people. The clamping of 681 00:31:23,893 --> 00:31:26,453 Speaker 2: the cars won't work, Scissus text to people will just 682 00:31:26,613 --> 00:31:29,173 Speaker 2: change the name of the car it's regis to therefore 683 00:31:29,173 --> 00:31:31,893 Speaker 2: won't be able to be clamped. They're not the official owner. 684 00:31:32,053 --> 00:31:34,773 Speaker 2: They could change it to wife, girlfriend, mum, or dad. 685 00:31:34,973 --> 00:31:37,813 Speaker 2: As we said before, until we follow through with punishments 686 00:31:37,813 --> 00:31:40,493 Speaker 2: for crimes, siss text and stop making excuses for those 687 00:31:40,533 --> 00:31:43,133 Speaker 2: who break the law. We're putting out the message that 688 00:31:43,213 --> 00:31:45,413 Speaker 2: it's okay, and I tend to agree with that, because 689 00:31:45,453 --> 00:31:48,053 Speaker 2: there might be the odd problem with the situation, right, 690 00:31:48,413 --> 00:31:52,213 Speaker 2: and they might they're the odd clamping that's incorrect or such, 691 00:31:52,293 --> 00:31:54,173 Speaker 2: and there might be people that are trying to get 692 00:31:54,173 --> 00:31:57,573 Speaker 2: around the system. But if it's another way to get 693 00:31:57,613 --> 00:32:00,333 Speaker 2: people to pay their court fines, many of what you're 694 00:32:00,333 --> 00:32:04,253 Speaker 2: supposed to go to victims, then surely we can beat 695 00:32:04,293 --> 00:32:06,053 Speaker 2: out the system and make it work. What do you reckon. 696 00:32:06,133 --> 00:32:06,333 Speaker 8: Yeah. 697 00:32:06,373 --> 00:32:08,213 Speaker 2: Oh, one hundred and eighty ten eighty is the number 698 00:32:08,213 --> 00:32:10,253 Speaker 2: of call Andrew welcome to the show. 699 00:32:11,373 --> 00:32:13,253 Speaker 4: Hey, guys, how's it going excellent? 700 00:32:14,853 --> 00:32:17,893 Speaker 19: Hey, Similar to the last caller, I'm in the vehicle 701 00:32:17,973 --> 00:32:21,253 Speaker 19: data industry here and a couple of points. It's it's 702 00:32:21,293 --> 00:32:23,933 Speaker 19: not quite as simple to change ownership like he was saying. 703 00:32:24,213 --> 00:32:26,573 Speaker 19: So with m d t A, it does require two parts. 704 00:32:26,653 --> 00:32:28,893 Speaker 19: The buyer fills in a form to say that they've 705 00:32:28,893 --> 00:32:31,133 Speaker 19: bought the vehicle, but also the seller has to fill 706 00:32:31,173 --> 00:32:33,133 Speaker 19: in a form with their driver license details that says 707 00:32:33,133 --> 00:32:34,893 Speaker 19: they've sold it. And it's only when those two things 708 00:32:34,933 --> 00:32:37,973 Speaker 19: marry up that that ownership record officially changes with nd 709 00:32:38,053 --> 00:32:40,373 Speaker 19: T A. And so if only one half of that 710 00:32:40,493 --> 00:32:42,853 Speaker 19: is done by someone looking to do it for the 711 00:32:42,853 --> 00:32:44,933 Speaker 19: wrong reasons, it would sort of been an unconfirmed state 712 00:32:45,013 --> 00:32:47,733 Speaker 19: for a while there until the until the second part. 713 00:32:47,653 --> 00:32:50,893 Speaker 2: Doesn't, But it would it still be in some form 714 00:32:50,973 --> 00:32:52,053 Speaker 2: on the on the records. 715 00:32:53,573 --> 00:32:55,613 Speaker 19: Yeah, I'm sure at m DTAs in they can probably 716 00:32:55,613 --> 00:32:59,573 Speaker 19: see both details the current unconfirmed owner and the and 717 00:32:59,613 --> 00:33:02,533 Speaker 19: the previous owner. It's also not this is in down 718 00:33:02,573 --> 00:33:04,373 Speaker 19: to the details, but it's not considered an owner as 719 00:33:04,413 --> 00:33:06,493 Speaker 19: far as nj TA is concerned. So the n c 720 00:33:06,613 --> 00:33:09,893 Speaker 19: t A don't manage a ownership record of vehicles. It's 721 00:33:09,893 --> 00:33:12,453 Speaker 19: they call it the registered person. It's basically the address 722 00:33:12,533 --> 00:33:15,893 Speaker 19: that that vehicle is registered to and the person responsible 723 00:33:15,933 --> 00:33:18,213 Speaker 19: for it. That that you know, registration and WAFT and 724 00:33:18,213 --> 00:33:20,693 Speaker 19: all that stuff is dealt to. But it's not it's 725 00:33:20,693 --> 00:33:24,453 Speaker 19: not a record of ownership as such. And I think 726 00:33:24,493 --> 00:33:27,413 Speaker 19: and also when it comes to the finds, they will 727 00:33:27,413 --> 00:33:30,253 Speaker 19: be issued to the person via the courts. And while 728 00:33:30,293 --> 00:33:32,053 Speaker 19: they might have the ability to look up what car 729 00:33:32,133 --> 00:33:35,493 Speaker 19: that person has registered to their name, if you sold 730 00:33:35,493 --> 00:33:38,413 Speaker 19: that car normally and change of ownership was done properly, 731 00:33:39,293 --> 00:33:40,973 Speaker 19: I don't think any of the fines would be attached 732 00:33:40,973 --> 00:33:42,933 Speaker 19: to that car. They're attached to that person when they 733 00:33:42,933 --> 00:33:45,213 Speaker 19: go through the court system. 734 00:33:45,133 --> 00:33:48,173 Speaker 2: Right, But so just get straight. But they'll be attached 735 00:33:48,213 --> 00:33:50,733 Speaker 2: to that person and that person if they're attached to 736 00:33:50,773 --> 00:33:55,333 Speaker 2: a number plate, then that car is up to be 737 00:33:55,413 --> 00:33:59,413 Speaker 2: clamped by for the court for the court finds. If 738 00:33:59,413 --> 00:34:00,053 Speaker 2: you see what I'm. 739 00:33:59,893 --> 00:34:03,213 Speaker 19: Saying, Yeah, yeah, absolutely, But if you're looking about the 740 00:34:03,293 --> 00:34:05,773 Speaker 19: risk of getting wrongly clammed, right, if you've bought a 741 00:34:05,813 --> 00:34:08,813 Speaker 19: car privately, legitimately and done the change of ownership, you know, 742 00:34:08,893 --> 00:34:12,133 Speaker 19: as normal. I doubt you'd be wrongly clammed because they're 743 00:34:12,172 --> 00:34:14,372 Speaker 19: going to look up that number plate and go, it's 744 00:34:14,373 --> 00:34:16,573 Speaker 19: not associated with the guy that we're interested anymore. 745 00:34:16,693 --> 00:34:18,773 Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, But I guess quite an easy way to 746 00:34:18,773 --> 00:34:20,853 Speaker 2: get around the situation is if you knew that you 747 00:34:20,933 --> 00:34:22,813 Speaker 2: had court fines and you want to drive around in 748 00:34:22,853 --> 00:34:25,413 Speaker 2: your car, then you would just simply find someone in 749 00:34:25,413 --> 00:34:28,173 Speaker 2: your family, like your sister or something, and say, is 750 00:34:28,173 --> 00:34:31,333 Speaker 2: this cool if we change ownership of my car into 751 00:34:31,413 --> 00:34:34,933 Speaker 2: your name so I can keep driving around without getting 752 00:34:34,933 --> 00:34:37,973 Speaker 2: it clamp. That seems like a pretty simple workaround you 753 00:34:38,373 --> 00:34:40,053 Speaker 2: if you knew someone, if you've got a buddy or 754 00:34:40,093 --> 00:34:41,573 Speaker 2: a family member that's willing to. 755 00:34:41,573 --> 00:34:45,093 Speaker 19: Do it, Yeah, and providing you've got those parties willing 756 00:34:45,133 --> 00:34:47,293 Speaker 19: to fill in their forms with their driver licenses, that 757 00:34:47,333 --> 00:34:48,973 Speaker 19: would work. So you have to use someone that you 758 00:34:49,013 --> 00:34:50,813 Speaker 19: know rather than a stranger. 759 00:34:50,893 --> 00:34:54,973 Speaker 2: And someone's already got court fines, and then you probably 760 00:34:54,973 --> 00:34:57,773 Speaker 2: wouldn't want to get involved, but you know people do exactly. Yeah, 761 00:34:57,893 --> 00:34:58,453 Speaker 2: well you did. 762 00:34:58,493 --> 00:35:00,053 Speaker 19: You used to be a fee to do that change 763 00:35:00,053 --> 00:35:02,573 Speaker 19: of ownership, which might have deterred they're not paying court 764 00:35:02,613 --> 00:35:05,413 Speaker 19: finds they're probably not paying a fee to change ownership either, 765 00:35:05,413 --> 00:35:08,133 Speaker 19: but it's free now when changed a bunch of fees 766 00:35:08,133 --> 00:35:08,853 Speaker 19: are this sort. 767 00:35:08,773 --> 00:35:10,652 Speaker 2: Of thing, So yeah, could it not work the other way? 768 00:35:10,693 --> 00:35:13,653 Speaker 3: Andrew that someone who owns a lot of court finds 769 00:35:13,653 --> 00:35:15,573 Speaker 3: they buy a car on the secondhand market and they 770 00:35:15,573 --> 00:35:18,453 Speaker 3: buy from someone who is a legitimate member of society, 771 00:35:18,493 --> 00:35:20,853 Speaker 3: and then that person who buys the card doesn't change 772 00:35:21,133 --> 00:35:23,653 Speaker 3: the ownership because they know that they owe court finds. 773 00:35:24,373 --> 00:35:26,013 Speaker 3: Is that a scenario that could play. 774 00:35:25,813 --> 00:35:31,613 Speaker 19: Out, Yeah, potentially, But in that case, the legitimate person 775 00:35:31,693 --> 00:35:34,453 Speaker 19: that you know, because the change of ownership requires two 776 00:35:34,613 --> 00:35:36,533 Speaker 19: parts to be completed, one from the buyer and one 777 00:35:36,533 --> 00:35:39,453 Speaker 19: from the seller. If there's a legitimate party involved on 778 00:35:39,533 --> 00:35:42,293 Speaker 19: either side, they're going to complete their part, which, as 779 00:35:42,293 --> 00:35:44,692 Speaker 19: far as DTA is concerned, will put it in sort 780 00:35:44,693 --> 00:35:48,053 Speaker 19: of an unconfirmed state. And so I imagine you think 781 00:35:48,093 --> 00:35:50,413 Speaker 19: if the bailiffs are with the police at a checkpoint, 782 00:35:50,413 --> 00:35:52,172 Speaker 19: the police have access to look up all of those 783 00:35:52,533 --> 00:35:56,013 Speaker 19: records and stuff, and so yeah, yeah, I guess there's 784 00:35:56,013 --> 00:35:58,013 Speaker 19: always a way to exploit it, but you've got to 785 00:35:58,013 --> 00:35:58,533 Speaker 19: try something. 786 00:35:59,493 --> 00:36:02,613 Speaker 3: Yeah, And so having bailiffs at police roadblocks, is that 787 00:36:02,693 --> 00:36:03,173 Speaker 3: a good idea. 788 00:36:05,493 --> 00:36:07,893 Speaker 19: Yeah, I think similar to what Matt was just saying. 789 00:36:07,973 --> 00:36:10,573 Speaker 19: It might not work hundred percent at the time. But 790 00:36:10,693 --> 00:36:13,293 Speaker 19: if if you're knocking on addresses that you've got for 791 00:36:13,333 --> 00:36:15,493 Speaker 19: people and they're not there because they've given a bogus 792 00:36:15,493 --> 00:36:17,253 Speaker 19: address or they've moved in with a mate or whatever 793 00:36:17,293 --> 00:36:19,253 Speaker 19: to get around it, and you can't track them down, 794 00:36:19,333 --> 00:36:21,413 Speaker 19: but you see their car packed up then and they've 795 00:36:21,453 --> 00:36:23,373 Speaker 19: got something out saying, and then why not you can't 796 00:36:23,413 --> 00:36:24,013 Speaker 19: get the money. 797 00:36:23,853 --> 00:36:24,212 Speaker 4: Out of them? 798 00:36:24,413 --> 00:36:27,293 Speaker 2: Yeah, but I mean I imagine just firing a car 799 00:36:27,333 --> 00:36:29,973 Speaker 2: around with cameras at high speed, just pinging everyone and 800 00:36:29,973 --> 00:36:34,453 Speaker 2: then contacting the bailiff at that point would catch more people. 801 00:36:34,813 --> 00:36:38,013 Speaker 19: You know, was good enough for good enough for parking fines, 802 00:36:38,013 --> 00:36:39,413 Speaker 19: then good enough for court fines. 803 00:36:39,253 --> 00:36:41,453 Speaker 2: Right, yea, yeah, very true. That would be the thinking. 804 00:36:42,213 --> 00:36:44,693 Speaker 3: Oh eight hundred and eighty ten eighty is the number 805 00:36:44,733 --> 00:36:46,773 Speaker 3: to call.

But this is 837 00:37:59,293 --> 00:37:59,893 Speaker 2: a better story. 838 00:38:00,893 --> 00:38:03,373 Speaker 4: There's nothing compared with what that business. 839 00:38:02,973 --> 00:38:05,773 Speaker 2: Means, oh how good? Was it hard to let the 840 00:38:06,493 --> 00:38:06,973 Speaker 2: Valiant go? 841 00:38:08,053 --> 00:38:08,252 Speaker 20: Yeah? 842 00:38:08,413 --> 00:38:10,293 Speaker 21: Broke my heart. One of the few times I've cried. 843 00:38:10,933 --> 00:38:13,573 Speaker 3: Yeah once you major millions? Though, Wayne, did you try 844 00:38:13,573 --> 00:38:14,333 Speaker 3: and track down another? 845 00:38:15,453 --> 00:38:15,533 Speaker 8: No? 846 00:38:16,413 --> 00:38:18,212 Speaker 21: I now driving this and Mardo. 847 00:38:20,253 --> 00:38:22,093 Speaker 2: That's life for you. But you know, do you agree 848 00:38:22,133 --> 00:38:24,453 Speaker 2: with me that the Valiant VF Pacer was the most 849 00:38:24,493 --> 00:38:26,772 Speaker 2: beautiful shaped car? 850 00:38:27,253 --> 00:38:29,333 Speaker 13: Just really it really was. 851 00:38:29,413 --> 00:38:32,533 Speaker 21: There was a fantastic machine, tons of power, tons of size, 852 00:38:33,093 --> 00:38:34,293 Speaker 21: and it was very impressive. 853 00:38:34,573 --> 00:38:37,133 Speaker 2: It's frustrating now every car basically looks the same, from 854 00:38:37,173 --> 00:38:42,732 Speaker 2: a BMW right through to you know, a Toyota. Yeah, 855 00:38:42,773 --> 00:38:44,613 Speaker 2: you know, they basically look the same. But back then 856 00:38:44,733 --> 00:38:46,933 Speaker 2: you'd have a car like that, the Valiant vs would 857 00:38:46,933 --> 00:38:49,773 Speaker 2: come out and it's just so uniquely of its time. 858 00:38:50,293 --> 00:38:53,533 Speaker 2: What it is. It's cars on the road used to 859 00:38:53,573 --> 00:38:56,053 Speaker 2: be so different. Now they're all basically the same. 860 00:38:56,133 --> 00:38:59,173 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a beautiful looking car. 861 00:38:59,453 --> 00:39:01,053 Speaker 4: I just tell you you're a good man. 862 00:39:01,093 --> 00:39:03,533 Speaker 2: I appreciate for doing that and and look good on you. 863 00:39:03,653 --> 00:39:05,533 Speaker 2: I'm so proud that it all went well for you. You 864 00:39:05,493 --> 00:39:07,173 Speaker 2: sound like a great New Zealander. Thanks, Wayne. 865 00:39:07,933 --> 00:39:09,733 Speaker 3: Right there is where we'll leave it, I think. But 866 00:39:09,893 --> 00:39:12,653 Speaker 3: great discussion, and I think Matt, most people are pretty 867 00:39:12,653 --> 00:39:15,933 Speaker 3: behind this idea of clamping those who own court fines. 868 00:39:16,613 --> 00:39:18,893 Speaker 3: Not too many people saying that it's going to go 869 00:39:18,933 --> 00:39:21,613 Speaker 3: all wrong. So that's I suppose good news for Minister 870 00:39:21,973 --> 00:39:23,933 Speaker 3: Paul Goldsmith and also the bailiffs. 871 00:39:24,013 --> 00:39:27,373 Speaker 2: Yeah, although this Texas is careful. Facial recognition will get 872 00:39:27,413 --> 00:39:29,853 Speaker 2: you arrested for not paying tax before you know it. 873 00:39:30,133 --> 00:39:32,373 Speaker 2: And that's what I said at the start, that us 874 00:39:32,413 --> 00:39:33,773 Speaker 2: go exactly right. 875 00:39:33,813 --> 00:39:36,453 Speaker 3: Coming up after two o'clock, a young Australian is going 876 00:39:36,453 --> 00:39:39,253 Speaker 3: home after a year in Wellington.

His 891 00:40:23,573 --> 00:40:27,013 Speaker 3: name is Cashi, He's from Queensland and he's decided he's 892 00:40:27,013 --> 00:40:31,013 Speaker 3: had enough of Wellington because I quote, cold, dark, gloomy 893 00:40:31,053 --> 00:40:33,813 Speaker 3: and depressing is what he called the city of Wellington. 894 00:40:34,373 --> 00:40:34,693 Speaker 7: Yeah. 895 00:40:34,733 --> 00:40:36,853 Speaker 2: Do we want to listen to his rant? It's a 896 00:40:36,853 --> 00:40:39,692 Speaker 2: long rant, but I think it will have you cut 897 00:40:39,693 --> 00:40:42,173 Speaker 2: it down for me, like anyone cut it down for me. 898 00:40:42,253 --> 00:40:43,692 Speaker 3: No one's cut it down for you. But I think 899 00:40:43,733 --> 00:40:45,293 Speaker 3: if we listen to his whole rant, it's going to 900 00:40:45,413 --> 00:40:46,493 Speaker 3: upset a few people. 901 00:40:46,533 --> 00:40:49,373 Speaker 2: Right, And there's nothing wrong with upsetting a few people. 902 00:40:49,373 --> 00:40:52,453 Speaker 2: People need to hear what this young Australian thinks of Wellington. 903 00:40:52,573 --> 00:40:55,172 Speaker 2: Let's play the rant. Okay, you want to play it now? 904 00:40:55,293 --> 00:40:57,692 Speaker 3: Yeah, let's plant now. So this is Cashy and this 905 00:40:57,733 --> 00:41:00,293 Speaker 3: is his rant that is going viral, not just in 906 00:41:00,333 --> 00:41:02,093 Speaker 3: New Zealand but around the world and in Australia. 907 00:41:02,493 --> 00:41:05,453 Speaker 22: I will be moving from New Zealand in about three weeks. 908 00:41:05,453 --> 00:41:08,772 Speaker 22: I can't do it anymore. I can't I can't stay 909 00:41:08,773 --> 00:41:09,333 Speaker 22: here any longer. 910 00:41:09,373 --> 00:41:10,253 Speaker 2: It's ridiculous. 911 00:41:10,413 --> 00:41:12,453 Speaker 22: I moved here just over a year ago to move 912 00:41:12,493 --> 00:41:14,773 Speaker 22: in with my girlfriend who was born here. She's from here, 913 00:41:15,413 --> 00:41:18,373 Speaker 22: and we've decided recently that we genuinely cannot take it 914 00:41:18,413 --> 00:41:21,772 Speaker 22: anymore and we're moving back to Australia, to Melbourne. I've 915 00:41:21,773 --> 00:41:25,493 Speaker 22: met some very lovely people when I've been here, some 916 00:41:25,573 --> 00:41:28,453 Speaker 22: truly awesome people. I've seen some really great things, some 917 00:41:28,573 --> 00:41:31,893 Speaker 22: very beautiful sights. I've ate great food, I've been some 918 00:41:31,973 --> 00:41:35,893 Speaker 22: beautiful places. I've done some traveling. I have genuinely enjoyed 919 00:41:36,773 --> 00:41:38,973 Speaker 22: a large part of my time living here, but that 920 00:41:39,013 --> 00:41:40,933 Speaker 22: does not make up for the fact that since I 921 00:41:41,013 --> 00:41:44,893 Speaker 22: have moved here, my mental health has taken a significant hit. 922 00:41:45,573 --> 00:41:49,172 Speaker 22: My drive for my career has taken a significant hit, 923 00:41:49,653 --> 00:41:52,533 Speaker 22: my drive with my dieting has taken a significant hit, 924 00:41:52,573 --> 00:41:55,293 Speaker 22: and my drive with my training has taken a significant hit. 925 00:41:55,733 --> 00:42:00,533 Speaker 22: I'm sick frequently, despite all of my RDI, vitamins and 926 00:42:00,573 --> 00:42:04,453 Speaker 22: minerals all being up to like perfect, awesome, in good shape. 927 00:42:04,613 --> 00:42:08,253 Speaker 22: I'm fit, I'm healthy, I'm active even when i'm off die. 928 00:42:08,493 --> 00:42:10,893 Speaker 22: I'm eating well, I'm hitting all of my macros, I'm 929 00:42:10,933 --> 00:42:14,813 Speaker 22: not overeating, and I still managed to find myself constantly 930 00:42:14,893 --> 00:42:18,613 Speaker 22: sick here. It is cold, it is dark, it is 931 00:42:18,893 --> 00:42:22,652 Speaker 22: a gloomy, it is depressing. It is raining almost all 932 00:42:22,693 --> 00:42:24,453 Speaker 22: the time. You get a couple of good days here 933 00:42:24,493 --> 00:42:27,053 Speaker 22: and there in summer is nice, And I think that 934 00:42:27,133 --> 00:42:29,693 Speaker 22: reflects really hard on a lot of the people that 935 00:42:29,773 --> 00:42:33,773 Speaker 22: live here. I have never met in my life my 936 00:42:33,893 --> 00:42:41,813 Speaker 22: short time here, people more unmotivated and depressed and bummy 937 00:42:42,333 --> 00:42:45,533 Speaker 22: and doing it rough than I have since I've moved here. 938 00:42:45,653 --> 00:42:47,773 Speaker 22: And I think it almost creates this net. This country 939 00:42:47,773 --> 00:42:50,373 Speaker 22: definitely does have some tall poppy issues, but I think 940 00:42:50,413 --> 00:42:54,093 Speaker 22: those tall poppy issues come from a point of jealousy. 941 00:42:54,093 --> 00:42:56,733 Speaker 3: Wow what a what an absolute rant? 942 00:42:57,173 --> 00:43:02,613 Speaker 2: Yeah, so shot for it? How do you feel about that? 943 00:43:03,093 --> 00:43:07,813 Speaker 3: So cold, dark, gloomy and depressing Wellington?

Oh one hundred and eighty ten eighty, Well, look. 949 00:43:21,653 --> 00:43:25,373 Speaker 2: See Wellington, right, love Wellington, absolutely love Wellington, but you 950 00:43:25,573 --> 00:43:29,013 Speaker 2: have to admit that it is a challenging climate. In Wellington. 951 00:43:29,053 --> 00:43:32,973 Speaker 2: It must be one of the most windy cities in 952 00:43:33,013 --> 00:43:35,093 Speaker 2: the entire world. Absolutely. In fact, I've seen a stat 953 00:43:35,093 --> 00:43:36,732 Speaker 2: where it is the windy city in the entire world. 954 00:43:36,733 --> 00:43:39,732 Speaker 2: Someone might say it's wrong there, maybe there's one that's 955 00:43:39,733 --> 00:43:42,053 Speaker 2: slightly windier, but it is so windy. It's windier than 956 00:43:42,093 --> 00:43:45,733 Speaker 2: the Windy City Chicago. Although fun fact, Chicago is not 957 00:43:45,733 --> 00:43:47,693 Speaker 2: called the windy city because it's windy. It's called the 958 00:43:47,733 --> 00:43:51,853 Speaker 2: windy city because the politicians there made so much noise 959 00:43:51,933 --> 00:43:53,613 Speaker 2: that they decided to call it the windy city. That's 960 00:43:53,613 --> 00:43:59,013 Speaker 2: a great I'm off topic here. Yeah, it's a challenging environment. 961 00:43:59,613 --> 00:44:02,253 Speaker 2: But do you still love Wellington? Do you thrive there? 962 00:44:02,293 --> 00:44:04,773 Speaker 2: There's been incredible things that have come out of Wellington. 963 00:44:04,853 --> 00:44:08,413 Speaker 2: Sir Peter Jackson, one of our most successful human being 964 00:44:08,493 --> 00:44:11,293 Speaker 2: has come out of Wellington.

You know that people people 970 00:44:27,413 --> 00:44:29,413 Speaker 2: stay and they love it. And the people that love 971 00:44:29,493 --> 00:44:33,413 Speaker 2: Wellington will absolutely swear by Wellington. And they'll tell you 972 00:44:33,453 --> 00:44:35,333 Speaker 2: that Auckland is terrible, and they'll tell you that Christ 973 00:44:35,573 --> 00:44:37,333 Speaker 2: just terrible, and they'll tell you that the Bay of 974 00:44:37,373 --> 00:44:40,732 Speaker 2: Plenty is horrible. At Wellington is where you've got to live. 975 00:44:41,293 --> 00:44:43,733 Speaker 2: But it's not the only challenging environment in New Zealand. 976 00:44:44,053 --> 00:44:47,093 Speaker 2: I mean my beloved hometown of Dunedin. I was landing 977 00:44:47,093 --> 00:44:49,453 Speaker 2: in there the other day and the pilot said it's 978 00:44:49,493 --> 00:44:52,893 Speaker 2: a frosty negative four out there. Yeah, you do ice 979 00:44:52,933 --> 00:44:55,333 Speaker 2: well and Dunedin, that's sure. Yeah, a lot of people 980 00:44:55,413 --> 00:44:57,453 Speaker 2: hassle me for my love of Dunedin, but whether it's 981 00:44:57,493 --> 00:45:01,093 Speaker 2: bad weather. But he's also saying things about New Zealand 982 00:45:01,173 --> 00:45:04,773 Speaker 2: is in general, and that he believes is a negative 983 00:45:04,813 --> 00:45:08,693 Speaker 2: attitude dude here, and that people are unmotivated here compared 984 00:45:08,693 --> 00:45:12,093 Speaker 2: to where he's from from in Kingsland. Yeah, Kingsland. I'm 985 00:45:12,133 --> 00:45:15,053 Speaker 2: from Kingsland. He's from Queensland. Yeah.

And 990 00:45:21,493 --> 00:45:23,453 Speaker 3: you and Wellington if you lived there. But if you've 991 00:45:23,493 --> 00:45:28,293 Speaker 3: ever lived in Wellington, and I think on the unmotivated aspect, 992 00:45:28,533 --> 00:45:32,533 Speaker 3: I can have some sympathy for how he might perceive 993 00:45:32,773 --> 00:45:36,173 Speaker 3: some Kiwi's been unmotivated or in a bit of a 994 00:45:36,293 --> 00:45:39,333 Speaker 3: stupor at the moment. Because we've talked about this on 995 00:45:39,413 --> 00:45:42,173 Speaker 3: the show, that wingy element, and that was a massive 996 00:45:42,213 --> 00:45:44,093 Speaker 3: wind from that that Aussie I've got to say, Oh. 997 00:45:44,093 --> 00:45:46,893 Speaker 2: You've got to say a malaise has fallen over this country. Yeah, 998 00:45:46,893 --> 00:45:49,373 Speaker 2: I think everyone can feel it. And so this is 999 00:45:49,453 --> 00:45:51,373 Speaker 2: just a young fellow that's come over from Queensland. He 1000 00:45:51,373 --> 00:45:55,653 Speaker 2: hasn't seen Wellington when it was absolutely going off in 1001 00:45:55,733 --> 00:45:59,773 Speaker 2: the huge hub of creativity. The nightlife there was fantastic, 1002 00:45:59,813 --> 00:46:02,933 Speaker 2: and it felt like Wellington was just this quadron of culture. 1003 00:46:03,253 --> 00:46:03,333 Speaker 9: Right. 1004 00:46:03,853 --> 00:46:06,613 Speaker 2: That seems to have slid a little bit in Wellington, 1005 00:46:06,653 --> 00:46:08,293 Speaker 2: but it also seems to have slid a little bit 1006 00:46:08,373 --> 00:46:14,053 Speaker 2: across our whole country. Because I don't know what do 1007 00:46:14,133 --> 00:46:18,213 Speaker 2: you reckon, who's more ambitious, who's more wingy? Is it 1008 00:46:18,293 --> 00:46:19,693 Speaker 2: Australians or New Zealanders? 1009 00:46:19,893 --> 00:46:19,973 Speaker 4: Oh? 1010 00:46:20,053 --> 00:46:22,172 Speaker 3: Eight hundred eighty ten eighty is that i'mber to call 1011 00:46:22,253 --> 00:46:23,733 Speaker 3: up to hear your thoughts on this, and how do 1012 00:46:23,813 --> 00:46:26,613 Speaker 3: you dare with a challenging climate like Wellington.

Loved that 1039 00:47:39,093 --> 00:47:42,013 Speaker 11: it was beautiful and over night life was great. Everything 1040 00:47:42,173 --> 00:47:46,613 Speaker 11: was just blooming at the time. And since then I 1041 00:47:47,093 --> 00:47:49,253 Speaker 11: last when I said nineteen a week so it's Queensland 1042 00:47:49,293 --> 00:47:52,652 Speaker 11: out of all places. Two years and that's a hell 1043 00:47:52,733 --> 00:47:58,093 Speaker 11: hole in itself. Horrible hot humors, weather, you know, thirty 1044 00:47:58,133 --> 00:48:02,973 Speaker 11: five degrees, eighty pretcubity, just horrible. Wasn't a dance. I 1045 00:48:03,053 --> 00:48:05,293 Speaker 11: came back to Wellington. I hate to say it, but 1046 00:48:05,373 --> 00:48:06,773 Speaker 11: Wellington is better than Queensland. 1047 00:48:07,333 --> 00:48:08,652 Speaker 23: And but. 1048 00:48:10,173 --> 00:48:13,333 Speaker 11: Honestly I can see what he means by people don't 1049 00:48:13,333 --> 00:48:16,413 Speaker 11: have the motivation of Wellington. But it is a depressing place. 1050 00:48:16,533 --> 00:48:20,053 Speaker 11: There's no enough to god housing or housings, and the 1051 00:48:20,213 --> 00:48:25,733 Speaker 11: parade a straight lines of homeless, which also speaks a 1052 00:48:25,813 --> 00:48:30,973 Speaker 11: homeless problem as Wellington. It's it's not queterable to walk 1053 00:48:31,013 --> 00:48:33,732 Speaker 11: around at night anymore or go places anymore in the city. 1054 00:48:33,933 --> 00:48:36,173 Speaker 11: Then hand or so many of your floutless for fights. 1055 00:48:36,493 --> 00:48:40,453 Speaker 11: Just that's even a nightlight Friday saiday night. It's not 1056 00:48:40,573 --> 00:48:42,853 Speaker 11: what it used to see. Towns fairly busly. 1057 00:48:44,373 --> 00:48:50,692 Speaker 2: Yeah and but okay, so what keeps you there? You've 1058 00:48:50,693 --> 00:48:53,213 Speaker 2: said that, you've said it's better than Queensland, But can 1059 00:48:53,253 --> 00:48:55,373 Speaker 2: you can you give us something good about Wellington because 1060 00:48:55,373 --> 00:48:57,933 Speaker 2: you've decided to stay there, don't you look? 1061 00:48:58,813 --> 00:49:00,773 Speaker 11: I'm in the Hat Valley. It's a beautiful place in 1062 00:49:00,773 --> 00:49:04,093 Speaker 11: the Hat Valley itself. You know, there's plenty of beaches 1063 00:49:04,253 --> 00:49:06,733 Speaker 11: you have really access there, plenty of places to go 1064 00:49:07,133 --> 00:49:09,453 Speaker 11: in the area. Also be only from your kids for 1065 00:49:09,573 --> 00:49:12,413 Speaker 11: here as family. If I didn't have my family here, 1066 00:49:12,413 --> 00:49:18,293 Speaker 11: I'd probably be somewhere down south. But yeah, like Wellington 1067 00:49:18,333 --> 00:49:20,573 Speaker 11: does have its perks, but it's not my favorite place. 1068 00:49:21,693 --> 00:49:24,773 Speaker 2: So what leads to the great people that have achieved 1069 00:49:24,813 --> 00:49:28,013 Speaker 2: so much? Some of our most talented people, you know, 1070 00:49:28,533 --> 00:49:31,093 Speaker 2: call Wellington home or or have cut their teeth in 1071 00:49:31,213 --> 00:49:33,773 Speaker 2: whatever career they're going to follow to the to the 1072 00:49:33,853 --> 00:49:37,173 Speaker 2: heights in Wellington. I'm thinking of Peter Jackson, tyger YTD, 1073 00:49:37,773 --> 00:49:40,533 Speaker 2: Fran Walsh. Of course, Fran Walsh is married to Peter Jackson. 1074 00:49:40,613 --> 00:49:44,773 Speaker 2: Brett McKenzie, you know, Sir Richard Taylor. There's there's a 1075 00:49:44,853 --> 00:49:48,333 Speaker 2: lot of people that have absolutely excelled out of Wellington. 1076 00:49:48,373 --> 00:49:50,373 Speaker 2: Fat Frudi's drop fantastic band. 1077 00:49:52,293 --> 00:49:55,053 Speaker 11: My question to that is they they's part of the 1078 00:49:55,133 --> 00:49:59,893 Speaker 11: older generation. They're not. They weren't brought up later generation. 1079 00:50:02,373 --> 00:50:04,133 Speaker 11: It was probably when Welling Coup was a great place, 1080 00:50:04,373 --> 00:50:06,533 Speaker 11: when it was beautiful, when there was no bus and 1081 00:50:06,613 --> 00:50:07,813 Speaker 11: cycle lanes everywhere. 1082 00:50:08,493 --> 00:50:13,133 Speaker 18: You know, they probably just had the right place to 1083 00:50:13,173 --> 00:50:17,133 Speaker 18: grow up at the right time. And now it's just yeahs. 1084 00:50:18,093 --> 00:50:21,093 Speaker 2: Do you think intense Do you think intense places sometimes 1085 00:50:21,933 --> 00:50:24,893 Speaker 2: create brilliant people? And if you've got it all nice 1086 00:50:24,933 --> 00:50:26,653 Speaker 2: and you're at the beach and you're a home and 1087 00:50:26,653 --> 00:50:29,573 Speaker 2: a home and away type life, that you may not 1088 00:50:29,933 --> 00:50:32,373 Speaker 2: come up with these people that do do incredible things. 1089 00:50:32,413 --> 00:50:35,252 Speaker 2: I'm thinking about you know, Ozzy Osborne this week passed away, 1090 00:50:35,293 --> 00:50:37,933 Speaker 2: but he grew up and Birmingham, right, and so that 1091 00:50:38,093 --> 00:50:41,133 Speaker 2: is an intense industrial town named Tony Iomi. The guitarist 1092 00:50:41,173 --> 00:50:43,413 Speaker 2: from Black Sabbath lost a finger in a factory, so 1093 00:50:43,493 --> 00:50:45,212 Speaker 2: he's only you know that all those riffs are played 1094 00:50:45,213 --> 00:50:48,613 Speaker 2: with two fingers. You know, there's there's something about the 1095 00:50:48,693 --> 00:50:51,693 Speaker 2: intensity and the and the almost gothic nature of Wellington 1096 00:50:51,773 --> 00:50:55,213 Speaker 2: and the fact that you're running between places, every umbrellas 1097 00:50:55,493 --> 00:51:00,053 Speaker 2: inside out. That that that, you know, inspires people to 1098 00:51:00,213 --> 00:51:03,253 Speaker 2: do great things, or at least different things. 1099 00:51:05,893 --> 00:51:09,133 Speaker 11: A sense that old say it does. But a lot 1100 00:51:09,213 --> 00:51:11,133 Speaker 11: of people don't think to make most of them. That's 1101 00:51:11,133 --> 00:51:14,453 Speaker 11: the other thing. And I'm one of those. I'm shaft 1102 00:51:14,493 --> 00:51:18,212 Speaker 11: with it. You know, you look at it for how 1103 00:51:18,253 --> 00:51:20,652 Speaker 11: it is, it as a bad site. You don't want 1104 00:51:20,653 --> 00:51:21,973 Speaker 11: to make the most of it. You don't want to 1105 00:51:22,293 --> 00:51:25,493 Speaker 11: st progress because it's not a nice place in your opinion. 1106 00:51:27,293 --> 00:51:29,973 Speaker 11: But you know, if you have the drive, if you 1107 00:51:30,093 --> 00:51:33,173 Speaker 11: have the family and all the support and friends and 1108 00:51:33,333 --> 00:51:37,293 Speaker 11: everything behind you, easy easy. 1109 00:51:38,053 --> 00:51:39,933 Speaker 2: Well okay, so what do you are you are you 1110 00:51:40,093 --> 00:51:42,293 Speaker 2: feeling all ged up and ready to do something amazing 1111 00:51:42,333 --> 00:51:44,373 Speaker 2: with your life in Wellington? 1112 00:51:44,893 --> 00:51:50,493 Speaker 24: Jack, I'm getting there, you know. 1113 00:51:51,093 --> 00:51:54,853 Speaker 11: You know sometimes greatness pattens when you least expect it. 1114 00:51:56,573 --> 00:51:58,973 Speaker 2: There's something cool that it's the capital of the country, 1115 00:51:59,133 --> 00:52:02,133 Speaker 2: and you know that that the you know the ramifications 1116 00:52:02,173 --> 00:52:05,172 Speaker 2: of power and and you know the ruminations.

Someone will help me 1118 00:52:06,493 --> 00:52:08,493 Speaker 2: on nineteen nine two, that there's something of power that 1119 00:52:08,533 --> 00:52:12,373 Speaker 2: people say that power. Yeah, you know that there's something 1120 00:52:12,413 --> 00:52:14,533 Speaker 2: about that that I find because I was thinking the 1121 00:52:14,573 --> 00:52:17,933 Speaker 2: other dy.

I think it is from the council 1137 00:52:55,213 --> 00:52:58,133 Speaker 11: who walk around and just sort of keep the streets 1138 00:52:58,173 --> 00:53:01,333 Speaker 11: safe per se. When they're walking, they're friendliest of people. 1139 00:53:01,413 --> 00:53:04,573 Speaker 11: They're great, they're seeing what people's opinions are around the place. 1140 00:53:05,613 --> 00:53:05,773 Speaker 4: You know. 1141 00:53:05,973 --> 00:53:07,933 Speaker 19: But yeah, I've. 1142 00:53:07,853 --> 00:53:10,453 Speaker 11: Unfortunately always seen the dark side of Wellington.

And you know, it's so clear here 1213 00:56:35,693 --> 00:56:39,493 Speaker 25: that from Karori you can see Mount Taranaki. That's the 1214 00:56:39,533 --> 00:56:41,533 Speaker 25: first thing. If it gets a little bit noisy here 1215 00:56:41,613 --> 00:56:44,692 Speaker 25: in a few minutes, that's because it'll be a flock 1216 00:56:44,733 --> 00:56:49,213 Speaker 25: of kaka flying across. This city with its natural environment, 1217 00:56:49,333 --> 00:56:52,653 Speaker 25: is unsurpassed.

I'll 1221 00:57:09,733 --> 00:57:12,172 Speaker 25: get a plug in for everywhere around New Zealand because 1222 00:57:12,213 --> 00:57:15,533 Speaker 25: if you want a quality of life and a work 1223 00:57:15,613 --> 00:57:18,373 Speaker 25: life balance, this country can give it to you. And 1224 00:57:18,493 --> 00:57:21,453 Speaker 25: Wellington's just come up really well along with Auckland in 1225 00:57:21,693 --> 00:57:25,773 Speaker 25: international work life balance a survey. I think we were 1226 00:57:25,893 --> 00:57:28,613 Speaker 25: first or second actually, and that's in spite of the 1227 00:57:28,693 --> 00:57:31,333 Speaker 25: difficulties that we've had in the city over the last 1228 00:57:32,213 --> 00:57:34,453 Speaker 25: six years in particular to get. 1229 00:57:34,333 --> 00:57:34,773 Speaker 7: Further to that. 1230 00:57:34,933 --> 00:57:40,093 Speaker 2: Simon, So would you accept that two things. Firstly that 1231 00:57:40,573 --> 00:57:42,653 Speaker 2: great that it's beautiful day and it has been for 1232 00:57:42,693 --> 00:57:45,373 Speaker 2: a few days, but there is a challenging nature to 1233 00:57:45,693 --> 00:57:50,173 Speaker 2: Wellington's weather. And secondly that Wellington may have lost its 1234 00:57:50,253 --> 00:57:53,173 Speaker 2: mojo a little bit over over the last five or 1235 00:57:53,173 --> 00:57:53,653 Speaker 2: six years. 1236 00:57:54,533 --> 00:57:57,973 Speaker 25: Yeah, but we're definitely on the way up. Yes, And 1237 00:57:58,653 --> 00:58:01,013 Speaker 25: the only thing I think I agree with the young 1238 00:58:01,053 --> 00:58:03,813 Speaker 25: Australian guy was that perhaps we are a bit of 1239 00:58:03,853 --> 00:58:06,773 Speaker 25: a tall poppy environment from time to time. We've got 1240 00:58:06,813 --> 00:58:08,773 Speaker 25: to do better because we've got champions and the city 1241 00:58:09,093 --> 00:58:13,613 Speaker 25: as well. You know, the quartet you know of the 1242 00:58:13,693 --> 00:58:19,253 Speaker 25: film industry with Richard and Tania and Peter and fran 1243 00:58:19,613 --> 00:58:22,293 Speaker 25: and what works around them are only but a few, 1244 00:58:22,533 --> 00:58:25,413 Speaker 25: you know, Like we've got a great gaming industry here, 1245 00:58:25,573 --> 00:58:30,453 Speaker 25: We've got a really good startup. I but also we 1246 00:58:30,973 --> 00:58:34,013 Speaker 25: have this environment that is dynamic and it is sometimes 1247 00:58:34,093 --> 00:58:37,093 Speaker 25: the best entertainment package in the whole damn country. I 1248 00:58:37,253 --> 00:58:39,573 Speaker 25: tell you, you get out onto the South Coast in 1249 00:58:39,653 --> 00:58:43,493 Speaker 25: a storm and it's ever moving. And you know, my 1250 00:58:43,613 --> 00:58:47,333 Speaker 25: photographic buddies around the world they can't believe where I live. 1251 00:58:47,973 --> 00:58:51,373 Speaker 25: They think that it's just such a great place and 1252 00:58:51,693 --> 00:58:54,973 Speaker 25: they come here and we take them on our tour 1253 00:58:55,053 --> 00:58:58,453 Speaker 25: of Wellington of the heights and the coast, and they 1254 00:58:58,533 --> 00:59:00,813 Speaker 25: love it.

We're talking about this young Australian. 1340 01:03:30,533 --> 01:03:33,693 Speaker 3: He's had a massive crack at Wellington online. It's gone viral. 1341 01:03:33,773 --> 01:03:35,453 Speaker 3: His name is Carshi used a little bit of what 1342 01:03:35,573 --> 01:03:36,293 Speaker 3: he says. 1343 01:03:36,453 --> 01:03:39,733 Speaker 22: And I still managed to find myself constantly sick here. 1344 01:03:40,133 --> 01:03:44,213 Speaker 22: It is cold, it is dark, it is gloomy, it 1345 01:03:44,333 --> 01:03:47,573 Speaker 22: is depressing, It is raining almost all the time. You 1346 01:03:47,653 --> 01:03:49,213 Speaker 22: get a couple of good days here and there in 1347 01:03:49,333 --> 01:03:52,893 Speaker 22: summer is nice, And I think that reflects really hard 1348 01:03:53,013 --> 01:03:55,093 Speaker 22: on a lot of the people that live here. I 1349 01:03:55,253 --> 01:03:59,093 Speaker 22: have never met in my life. In my short time here, 1350 01:03:59,773 --> 01:04:07,933 Speaker 22: people more unmotivated and depressed and bummy and doing it rough, 1351 01:04:08,333 --> 01:04:10,413 Speaker 22: and I have since I've moved here, And I think 1352 01:04:10,413 --> 01:04:12,813 Speaker 22: it almost creates this net. This country definitely does have 1353 01:04:12,933 --> 01:04:15,573 Speaker 22: some tall poppy issues. But I think those tall poppy 1354 01:04:15,613 --> 01:04:17,253 Speaker 22: issues come from a point of jealousy. 1355 01:04:17,653 --> 01:04:19,133 Speaker 2: Yeah, he goes, so we did a drive by on 1356 01:04:19,213 --> 01:04:20,933 Speaker 2: the entire country there at the end that the whole 1357 01:04:20,933 --> 01:04:26,533 Speaker 2: country's got a tall poppy situation there. But is he right? 1358 01:04:26,733 --> 01:04:34,933 Speaker 2: Is Wellington absolutely rubbish, as this young Australian says Jonathan Happen. 1359 01:04:35,533 --> 01:04:37,453 Speaker 26: Guys, No, absolutely not. 1360 01:04:39,133 --> 01:04:39,173 Speaker 20: That. 1361 01:04:39,853 --> 01:04:42,973 Speaker 26: I just just hearing out again. It is not dark, 1362 01:04:43,493 --> 01:04:47,653 Speaker 26: it is not gloomy. Yes, winter can be harsh, but 1363 01:04:47,733 --> 01:04:50,133 Speaker 26: we've got a beautiful day to day here. It's nice 1364 01:04:50,173 --> 01:04:54,453 Speaker 26: and sunny, not much in the way of wind. But yeah, 1365 01:04:54,453 --> 01:04:59,213 Speaker 26: it was pretty cold this morning, but winter's you just 1366 01:04:59,533 --> 01:05:00,733 Speaker 26: you've just got to hunker down. 1367 01:05:01,453 --> 01:05:04,453 Speaker 2: What about the what about the attitude of the people, people, Jonathan, 1368 01:05:04,533 --> 01:05:06,573 Speaker 2: what about the attitude and the wellness of the people. 1369 01:05:09,733 --> 01:05:11,413 Speaker 26: Again, I think he's way out the top there and 1370 01:05:11,533 --> 01:05:14,733 Speaker 26: this was unnecessary and a thatt your attitude. Well, then 1371 01:05:15,693 --> 01:05:16,933 Speaker 26: go home and good riddance to you. 1372 01:05:18,173 --> 01:05:20,373 Speaker 2: Well, this is what someone said. He can go home 1373 01:05:20,413 --> 01:05:22,453 Speaker 2: to his mommy in Queensland and never come back. 1374 01:05:22,493 --> 01:05:26,053 Speaker 26: Since this teachers he sounds like a sick little puppy. 1375 01:05:26,693 --> 01:05:30,853 Speaker 26: I've lived in Runnington for coming out fifty years and 1376 01:05:31,093 --> 01:05:35,813 Speaker 26: I've seldom, if ever been sick. The rest that might 1377 01:05:35,853 --> 01:05:37,853 Speaker 26: happen else, I might get a sniffle and maybe need 1378 01:05:37,893 --> 01:05:42,053 Speaker 26: to blame my nose once or twice. So I'm very 1379 01:05:42,133 --> 01:05:43,413 Speaker 26: lucky and fortunate in that respect. 1380 01:05:43,413 --> 01:05:45,093 Speaker 2: Well, do you think post. Possibly his problem is that 1381 01:05:45,173 --> 01:05:47,293 Speaker 2: he is acclimatized to the Queensland. 1382 01:05:48,133 --> 01:05:51,453 Speaker 26: Oh god, yeah, Queensland. Yeah, anyone that comes out of 1383 01:05:51,453 --> 01:05:56,653 Speaker 26: from Queensland to here, what would absolutely get what would 1384 01:05:56,693 --> 01:06:00,093 Speaker 26: be a major That would be a major. 1385 01:06:00,333 --> 01:06:02,893 Speaker 2: Have you lived in many other places in the world, Jonathan. 1386 01:06:04,133 --> 01:06:05,973 Speaker 26: Not outside in New Zealand, though I was born and 1387 01:06:06,093 --> 01:06:10,813 Speaker 26: raised in Auckland.

People are motivated this sickle time. 1488 01:11:08,772 --> 01:11:09,932 Speaker 2: Is that your experience, Grant? 1489 01:11:10,973 --> 01:11:11,532 Speaker 4: No, no, all. 1490 01:11:11,812 --> 01:11:14,852 Speaker 27: I mean I've got sick during COVID and that's it. 1491 01:11:15,133 --> 01:11:17,013 Speaker 27: I haven't been sick at all in Willington. 1492 01:11:17,732 --> 01:11:18,532 Speaker 2: Editing your micros. 1493 01:11:20,053 --> 01:11:25,013 Speaker 27: Yeah, that's all right. You know, you've got to what 1494 01:11:25,133 --> 01:11:27,852 Speaker 27: I do like about the city. It's small so compared 1495 01:11:27,893 --> 01:11:30,492 Speaker 27: to where I come from and other cities in the world. 1496 01:11:30,933 --> 01:11:32,932 Speaker 27: So for me getting around as a chip and a put. 1497 01:11:33,452 --> 01:11:36,532 Speaker 27: You know, there's good traffic, there's good you know there's not. Yes, 1498 01:11:36,612 --> 01:11:38,692 Speaker 27: we have the odd traffic jam here and there, like 1499 01:11:38,853 --> 01:11:40,692 Speaker 27: every city, but you're not sitting in the traffic for 1500 01:11:40,772 --> 01:11:44,532 Speaker 27: two hours twenty thirty minutes on the worst scenario. Coming 1501 01:11:44,572 --> 01:11:48,852 Speaker 27: in transmission, Gutty is a great improvement for those guys 1502 01:11:48,973 --> 01:11:51,612 Speaker 27: coming from the coast, guys coming from Upper Hat. Look, 1503 01:11:51,652 --> 01:11:54,372 Speaker 27: A're going to have a few challenges in billing interchange changes. 1504 01:11:54,812 --> 01:11:58,253 Speaker 27: But now once that's finished. That'll be great on that side, 1505 01:11:58,253 --> 01:12:00,372 Speaker 27: and we're going to have this beautiful walkway going around 1506 01:12:00,452 --> 01:12:05,053 Speaker 27: the harbor soon. Look, the center of the city. My 1507 01:12:05,333 --> 01:12:07,612 Speaker 27: personal opinion, and we've all had our opinions today, but 1508 01:12:08,333 --> 01:12:10,293 Speaker 27: there's not opinions. I think it started going wrong with 1509 01:12:10,372 --> 01:12:14,892 Speaker 27: the earthquakes. We unfortunately had those horrible earthquakes, which then 1510 01:12:15,093 --> 01:12:17,852 Speaker 27: obviously took a few people out of the city. We 1511 01:12:17,973 --> 01:12:21,532 Speaker 27: had roadworks going on, and you know, reading cinemas and 1512 01:12:21,612 --> 01:12:24,452 Speaker 27: that whole area closing down that that didn't do anything 1513 01:12:24,492 --> 01:12:27,013 Speaker 27: for the city, and then to make it worse. And look, 1514 01:12:27,053 --> 01:12:28,732 Speaker 27: I do I want to criticize other people in the 1515 01:12:28,772 --> 01:12:31,052 Speaker 27: way they do their jobs, but over the last couple 1516 01:12:31,093 --> 01:12:34,133 Speaker 27: of years of some of the changes with the walkways 1517 01:12:34,213 --> 01:12:37,173 Speaker 27: and the cycle lanes and the and the bus that's 1518 01:12:37,253 --> 01:12:39,652 Speaker 27: definitely affected business big time. And you have to feel 1519 01:12:39,933 --> 01:12:43,452 Speaker 27: really sorry for those businesses in the city because you know, 1520 01:12:43,532 --> 01:12:46,372 Speaker 27: you've got guys that invested huge amounts of money in 1521 01:12:46,492 --> 01:12:50,452 Speaker 27: some great cafes which just don't exist anymore. And so 1522 01:12:51,013 --> 01:12:52,732 Speaker 27: you know, there's been a bit of impact there. But 1523 01:12:52,812 --> 01:12:54,372 Speaker 27: I think it's going to come back. You know, I'm 1524 01:12:54,933 --> 01:12:57,293 Speaker 27: a little bit in the hospitality industry, and I've just 1525 01:12:57,372 --> 01:13:00,173 Speaker 27: seen some really good shoots coming through with you know, 1526 01:13:00,692 --> 01:13:05,892 Speaker 27: guys reinventing themselves. There's been a few changes you've got. 1527 01:13:06,013 --> 01:13:09,293 Speaker 2: You've got a fantastic attitude and I love to hear it. 1528 01:13:09,293 --> 01:13:11,772 Speaker 2: But I've got to ask this question. So there's another 1529 01:13:11,812 --> 01:13:15,053 Speaker 2: famous South African Grant that's a welling Tonian.

He's a good import. 1535 01:13:26,772 --> 01:13:29,092 Speaker 27: He loves some fantastic imports. 1536 01:13:29,293 --> 01:13:29,532 Speaker 20: Yeah. 1537 01:13:30,093 --> 01:13:31,532 Speaker 2: Well, I'll tell you what.

I've spent one time. In fact, at 1588 01:15:52,652 --> 01:15:57,253 Speaker 28: the moment, lads, I'm driving into a beautifully sunny Wellington 1589 01:15:57,333 --> 01:15:59,572 Speaker 28: day about to go through the mount back tonel so 1590 01:16:00,053 --> 01:16:03,932 Speaker 28: you may lose the signal. Although technology in this city 1591 01:16:04,093 --> 01:16:07,293 Speaker 28: is probably so good that will continue talking. 1592 01:16:08,412 --> 01:16:10,293 Speaker 2: Do you love about Wellington, Barry? 1593 01:16:11,133 --> 01:16:14,293 Speaker 28: I love the size for a start, because there's nowhere 1594 01:16:14,732 --> 01:16:17,013 Speaker 28: that you can't really walk to if you're in the 1595 01:16:17,452 --> 01:16:22,253 Speaker 28: sort of the the center sort of the Wellington. I 1596 01:16:22,492 --> 01:16:26,972 Speaker 28: like the size, in particular the weather everybody Winge is about, 1597 01:16:27,093 --> 01:16:31,932 Speaker 28: but they also acclaim any day that day in Welmington, 1598 01:16:32,053 --> 01:16:35,613 Speaker 28: it's remembered for months on the end that I'm experiencing 1599 01:16:35,732 --> 01:16:39,132 Speaker 28: that right at the moment. So look it to great class. 1600 01:16:40,812 --> 01:16:43,932 Speaker 3: Oh, I think we've just lost Barry in the Mount 1601 01:16:44,093 --> 01:16:46,732 Speaker 3: Victoria tunnel. But he was about to say it's a 1602 01:16:46,732 --> 01:16:48,572 Speaker 3: great place. Oh, we got your bag Bury quickly. 1603 01:16:48,732 --> 01:16:49,532 Speaker 2: The night life. 1604 01:16:51,893 --> 01:16:54,852 Speaker 28: Fantastic. Go down Courtney Place and I have done just 1605 01:16:55,293 --> 01:16:58,333 Speaker 28: at the end of Taranaki Street, right near Courtney Place 1606 01:16:58,333 --> 01:17:02,492 Speaker 28: at one stage. It's always vibrant, it's always rocking. You 1607 01:17:02,612 --> 01:17:05,333 Speaker 28: can always get a meal, even in the early hours 1608 01:17:05,333 --> 01:17:09,213 Speaker 28: of the morning where there I f had Auckland closers up. 1609 01:17:10,173 --> 01:17:15,852 Speaker 2: Yes, Arry, And finally, what about the last few years 1610 01:17:16,053 --> 01:17:19,013 Speaker 2: has Wellington lost its mojo somewhat? It used to be 1611 01:17:19,213 --> 01:17:21,452 Speaker 2: so confident, it used to be giving Auckland the bird. 1612 01:17:21,492 --> 01:17:23,572 Speaker 2: It was absolutely positively this come down and have an 1613 01:17:23,572 --> 01:17:26,892 Speaker 2: af fear with your wife that. But has it fallen 1614 01:17:26,933 --> 01:17:30,013 Speaker 2: off a Cliff a little bit. In the last few years, Barry, I. 1615 01:17:30,053 --> 01:17:33,492 Speaker 28: Think it's been tainted by the governance of Wellington, and 1616 01:17:33,933 --> 01:17:36,932 Speaker 28: you know that I guess that sort of filters through 1617 01:17:37,053 --> 01:17:39,772 Speaker 28: to the community. So I think people are a bit 1618 01:17:39,853 --> 01:17:43,372 Speaker 28: despondent about the way the council has been run. But 1619 01:17:43,812 --> 01:17:47,053 Speaker 28: you know, later this year there's hope ahead. We've got 1620 01:17:47,093 --> 01:17:51,372 Speaker 28: the local body elections and hope that people now enroll 1621 01:17:51,732 --> 01:17:54,652 Speaker 28: and get out and vote in Wellington because we know 1622 01:17:54,812 --> 01:17:58,932 Speaker 28: what we want here. We want celebration, because this city 1623 01:17:59,412 --> 01:18:00,732 Speaker 28: is so capable of it. 1624 01:18:00,893 --> 01:18:02,492 Speaker 2: Well, you're in the tunnel, can you honk your horn 1625 01:18:02,572 --> 01:18:02,812 Speaker 2: for us? 1626 01:18:03,732 --> 01:18:07,093 Speaker 28: No, we've just honked the horn through.

And 1839 01:29:29,652 --> 01:29:32,812 Speaker 8: it was sort of like the Rock and Wholk Hogan 1840 01:29:32,893 --> 01:29:37,133 Speaker 8: WrestleMania eighteen. The crowd swayed backwards and forwards, and then 1841 01:29:37,133 --> 01:29:39,933 Speaker 8: all of a sudden, Hogan became the baby face in 1842 01:29:40,013 --> 01:29:41,372 Speaker 8: that match, and of course he was a heel because 1843 01:29:41,412 --> 01:29:44,093 Speaker 8: he was in WO. And then the Rock became the 1844 01:29:44,213 --> 01:29:46,852 Speaker 8: bad the bad guy if you like. And that one 1845 01:29:47,093 --> 01:29:50,892 Speaker 8: match it just showed you how much those two guys 1846 01:29:50,973 --> 01:29:53,532 Speaker 8: were so well respected and how much you know, all 1847 01:29:53,612 --> 01:29:56,092 Speaker 8: the little kids, all the sorry the adults and teenagers 1848 01:29:56,133 --> 01:29:57,972 Speaker 8: that were in the crowd that were Hulks, the Frians 1849 01:29:58,293 --> 01:30:01,253 Speaker 8: from when they were really young, just that still struck 1850 01:30:01,293 --> 01:30:03,052 Speaker 8: in them.

Come on now. Yeah. 1855 01:30:10,173 --> 01:30:14,293 Speaker 2: Well, you know that was the amazing brilliance of Hulk 1856 01:30:14,372 --> 01:30:16,452 Speaker 2: Hogan to know when his time was up as a 1857 01:30:16,532 --> 01:30:19,572 Speaker 2: babyface and to become Hollywood Hulk Hogan and become become 1858 01:30:19,612 --> 01:30:22,692 Speaker 2: a heel. That I mean, that was absolutely a brilliant 1859 01:30:22,732 --> 01:30:25,612 Speaker 2: move and absolutely shocking to people. But people the times 1860 01:30:25,652 --> 01:30:28,652 Speaker 2: had changed and the whole whole commania thing didn't quite 1861 01:30:29,133 --> 01:30:31,293 Speaker 2: quite work.

It's funny because I was 1866 01:30:43,532 --> 01:30:45,013 Speaker 2: so hyped up about it. It goes he's going to 1867 01:30:45,053 --> 01:30:46,452 Speaker 2: do it. It's never been done before. But I saw 1868 01:30:46,492 --> 01:30:48,852 Speaker 2: this documentary on it the other day and apparently Andre 1869 01:30:48,933 --> 01:30:51,652 Speaker 2: the Dry had been body slammed hundreds of times. It 1870 01:30:51,812 --> 01:30:54,492 Speaker 2: just wasn't a thing, but they hyped up that story, 1871 01:30:54,492 --> 01:30:56,293 Speaker 2: and then that story was just so important to you, 1872 01:30:56,933 --> 01:30:59,932 Speaker 2: you know, the first time giants ever been body slammed, 1873 01:31:00,013 --> 01:31:01,053 Speaker 2: It just meant so much. 1874 01:31:01,173 --> 01:31:04,692 Speaker 8: Yes, Yeah, they've been doing any house shows for years, 1875 01:31:05,053 --> 01:31:06,852 Speaker 8: apparently unrecorded shows. 1876 01:31:06,933 --> 01:31:08,652 Speaker 4: Yeah, they've been doing it for quite time. 1877 01:31:08,812 --> 01:31:10,532 Speaker 8: So that's why I said, he's back pretty it was 1878 01:31:10,572 --> 01:31:13,372 Speaker 8: pretty sure, but of course, you know he's had that fused. 1879 01:31:14,572 --> 01:31:17,053 Speaker 2: Just did you enjoy the bush Wackers?

It 1949 01:34:30,973 --> 01:34:33,333 Speaker 2: made me think about it. Actually, take say Kirk Cobain 1950 01:34:33,372 --> 01:34:34,893 Speaker 2: for example, and this make seem like a bit of 1951 01:34:35,293 --> 01:34:37,053 Speaker 2: a journey. I'm going to take you on here, but 1952 01:34:37,652 --> 01:34:40,052 Speaker 2: smells like Teen Spirit had only been out for eighteen 1953 01:34:40,133 --> 01:34:43,173 Speaker 2: months when Kirk Cobain refused to play it anymore because 1954 01:34:43,173 --> 01:34:45,372 Speaker 2: it was too commercially he couldn't handle doing it.
