Poskyido, Middle of the Week, Welcome to it. 10 00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:28,880 Speaker 2: It's hard to tell seven past six. By the way, 11 00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:31,080 Speaker 2: it's hard to tell that Mark Carney seemed to be 12 00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:33,040 Speaker 2: up for a fight with Donald Trump in his opening 13 00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:36,840 Speaker 2: Our Words. Meantime, Malcolm Turnbull, who ran Australia for about 14 00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:39,120 Speaker 2: three years but never in a way that reflected how 15 00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:41,159 Speaker 2: good you thought he could be before he got the jobs, 16 00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:43,720 Speaker 2: found new mileage and chipping in from the sidelines posters 17 00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:46,200 Speaker 2: glory days. I mean, talking tough on Trump is way easier, 18 00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:48,120 Speaker 2: of course when you aren't in charge of anything. But 19 00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 2: that doesn't mean he didn't make an excellent point. Yesterday 20 00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:54,120 Speaker 2: we told you about his Bloomberg interview, where he suggested 21 00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:56,720 Speaker 2: President G may well be the ultimate winner as the 22 00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:59,600 Speaker 2: world sides more with the consistent and perhaps polite person 23 00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:02,480 Speaker 2: as a post to a bully Turnbull was not done. 24 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:05,480 Speaker 2: He turned up on the ABC twice yesterday and quite 25 00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:08,520 Speaker 2: rightly chided the interviewers who asked whether it was wise 26 00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:11,360 Speaker 2: to criticize Trump at a time when Australia was wanting 27 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:15,200 Speaker 2: tariff exemptions. Has the ABC become, he said, so compliant 28 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:17,880 Speaker 2: and weak that you were seriously suggesting that we shouldn't 29 00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:19,720 Speaker 2: be free to speak the truth in Australia for fear 30 00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:22,560 Speaker 2: of Donald Trump. Is that the depths you've sunk to. 31 00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 2: He went on, Australia could not continue this bipartisan gas 32 00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 2: lighting that's going on at the moment. Are we just 33 00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 2: going to become a conger line of sickophants creeping through 34 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:34,039 Speaker 2: the White House paying homage to this s guy? These 35 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:36,760 Speaker 2: are excellent lines, and I revel in people's ability to 36 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:39,319 Speaker 2: speak their mind in a world where woken blumonde so 37 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 2: often passes for discourse. Flip side, of course, as Trump 38 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:45,320 Speaker 2: is so nuts, I wouldn't be remotely surprised to see 39 00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:48,320 Speaker 2: a message on truth social saying because your ex prime minister, 40 00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:50,480 Speaker 2: a failed leader, was so rude, I will not be 41 00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:53,320 Speaker 2: handing exemptions out. I love Australia. I have a lot 42 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 2: of friends in Australia. Your ex leader, loser, Malcolm Turnbull 43 00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:58,840 Speaker 2: is not one of them. Until he apologizes to me 44 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:00,600 Speaker 2: and the great people of the unis it states there 45 00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:03,440 Speaker 2: can be no exemption, then tell me you can't see that. 46 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 2: That's how pathetic it's become. But and this is where 47 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:08,920 Speaker 2: Malcolm and Carney might well be right, that is no 48 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:12,919 Speaker 2: excuse to acquiesce, to sell out, to suck up. As 49 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:16,000 Speaker 2: Malcolm also pointed out on his ABC spray you suck 50 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:18,799 Speaker 2: up to bullies, you get more bullying. 51 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 1: News of the world in ninety seconds. 52 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:25,240 Speaker 2: And the question around tariffs might be just how pathetic 53 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:27,679 Speaker 2: can all of this get? Ontario has a crack so 54 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:29,240 Speaker 2: Donald sees that nuts them some. 55 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 3: He talks all about how he will double the tariffs 56 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:36,400 Speaker 3: on steel and aluminium. This in response, he says, also 57 00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 3: to the very unfair anti American farmer tariffs which are 58 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:45,519 Speaker 3: on various US dairy products the markets. 59 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 2: Of course, of loving all of this, and Trump's mates 60 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 2: continue to try and defend a pending recession. 61 00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 4: President Trump has told people there's going to be a 62 00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 4: little bit of pain with this, and there is. 63 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 5: That's fine. 64 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 4: You know, the stock market's gone up and down before, 65 00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 4: it'll come back. But when we somewhere around first of April, 66 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:02,200 Speaker 4: where everybody's got to be on the same level, I 67 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:03,680 Speaker 4: think we'll start leveling out. 68 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:04,240 Speaker 6: Uh huh. 69 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 2: If you want some good news, Marco and the gang 70 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 2: in South he seemed to be making war progress. 71 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:11,360 Speaker 7: We are very open, were very open, and they want 72 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:19,480 Speaker 7: to have very constructed, deep friend partners conversation with our 73 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:21,240 Speaker 7: American partners. 74 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 2: In the Philippines. The local FEDS are branded up to Turte. 75 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:25,320 Speaker 2: After the ICC said they wouldn't mind. 76 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 8: The world there was something systematically wrong with the Turtis 77 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:32,000 Speaker 8: drug war, meaning that what you had there was not 78 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 8: a real drug war based on drew process, dead squads, 79 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:40,760 Speaker 8: mercenaries and then doing some really really dark and bloody things. 80 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,160 Speaker 2: And then in Britain the news this time yesterday. Of 81 00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 2: course there's everyone on board those ships that hit each 82 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 2: other survived. Well, it seems not to be true. 83 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:50,120 Speaker 6: Thirteen of the fourteen sailors are the Envy, so longer 84 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 6: accounted for search and rescue operations for the missing sailor 85 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:57,320 Speaker 6: continued throughout yesterday but were called off yesterday evening at 86 00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 6: the points of which the chances of their survival had 87 00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:03,160 Speaker 6: unfortunately significantly diminished. 88 00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 2: And in court Kyle Clifford, who is depraved and guilty 89 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:08,560 Speaker 2: of murder and rape, very high profile case in that 90 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 2: part of the world, got a whole of life sentence. 91 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 9: The evidence I have heard shows you to be a 92 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:18,120 Speaker 9: jealous man, soaked in self pity, a man who holds 93 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 9: women in utter contempt. 94 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,280 Speaker 2: And so that was that. Finally, Sir Jim Radcliffe, for 95 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:24,720 Speaker 2: our old mate, he's announced that, man, you plans to 96 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 2: build a new four and a half billion dollars stadium. 97 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 2: It would replace Old Trafford. They played at Old Trafford 98 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 2: since nineteen ten. I've been to Old Trafford as a 99 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 2: place to go as a tourist. I'm not sure it's 100 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:37,000 Speaker 2: the greatest play anyway, it'll be the biggest in the 101 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 2: UK capacity of one hundred thousand. That is a big 102 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 2: small issue of money, men, you are currently a billion 103 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 2: in debt. I think the New Zealand Rugby Union can 104 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:46,599 Speaker 2: attest to that. And if they get past that particular hurdle. 105 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:49,160 Speaker 2: They can build it. They reckon in five years they 106 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 2: should come and build that road north of Auckland. It'd 107 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 2: be awesome news of the world. In ninety Foster is 108 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:56,360 Speaker 2: doing it. By the way, you don't know the work 109 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:57,039 Speaker 2: of Norman Foster. 110 00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 5: Look that up. 111 00:04:57,600 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, this is on terry, I think for God's sake. 112 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 2: So Doug who seems to be he's the Ontario premier, 113 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 2: seems to be a ruling to himself. They supply Ontario 114 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:07,920 Speaker 2: power to Minnesota, New York and Michigan. They're threatening now 115 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,919 Speaker 2: to turn that off. The tariffs they're imposing twenty five percent. 116 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 2: That brings in about three hundred thousand dollars a day. 117 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:14,760 Speaker 2: There's a bit of money in tariffs. Trump sees that, 118 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 2: of course, and goes, oh, you think these things for 119 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:19,800 Speaker 2: twenty five, I'll give you fifty. So meantime, Stalantis who 120 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:23,040 Speaker 2: are caught up in the aluminum and steel, they're melting down. 121 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 2: The whole thing is a complete and utter mess. Twelve 122 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:27,560 Speaker 2: past six. 123 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 1: The Mike Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio, How 124 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 1: if My News talks? 125 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:39,680 Speaker 2: Eppy white House is about to give a briefing on 126 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:42,599 Speaker 2: the cluster that they're currently wading their way through. Once 127 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 2: some good news. Pope Francis seems okay. Participated remotely in 128 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 2: the spiritual retreat Tuesday. Doctors have upgraded the prognosis. He's 129 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 2: no longer in imminent danger of death. So that's good. 130 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:55,559 Speaker 2: We'll take that fifteen past second right over from JMO 131 00:05:55,839 --> 00:06:00,600 Speaker 2: Andrew Keller. How welcome in good morning, Mike, is through 132 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 2: this cacophony of misery. 133 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 10: Hey, Look, markets have governed to focus this week, haven't they. 134 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 10: Look after we spoke yesterday, US markets didn't really gain 135 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:14,640 Speaker 10: any more ground in the clothes, but it ended up 136 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:16,279 Speaker 10: being quite an interesting data, isn't it. I mean, a 137 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:19,320 Speaker 10: four percent fall in NASDA. You don't see that every day. Look, Mike, 138 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 10: uncertainty is still the name of the game, and I 139 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 10: just need to put some flavor around that. So we 140 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,599 Speaker 10: know that there's going to be tariffs. Look, we know 141 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 10: there's going to be trade protectionism. We know there's going 142 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 10: to be job losses in US government services, but we 143 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 10: just you've got no idea what the detail While the 144 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:39,800 Speaker 10: end pointing to mean this track is also fluid and 145 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:44,360 Speaker 10: constantly changing. This is what's generating this uncertainty and the 146 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 10: markets are voting, Mike, and at the moment that vote 147 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 10: is negative. There was a Benjamin Grahame, very famous US investor, 148 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 10: once said, in the short run, the market is a 149 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:56,599 Speaker 10: voting machine. In the long run, it's a weighing machine. 150 00:06:56,760 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 10: The short term measures sentiment. Sentiment is clearly negative. But 151 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:03,320 Speaker 10: I just want to put a little bit of perspective 152 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:06,480 Speaker 10: around this because let's look at the year to date moves, 153 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 10: because it comes after a very strong twenty twenty four 154 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:12,360 Speaker 10: So the S and P five hundred, this is up 155 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:15,480 Speaker 10: to the close yesterday, it's down five point two percent. 156 00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:20,960 Speaker 10: Last year, that index gained over twenty three percent. The Nasdaq, yes, 157 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 10: it's down nine and a half percent so far this year. 158 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 10: Last year gained almost thirty percent twenty eight point six percent. 159 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:31,240 Speaker 10: So just putting those losses into perspective is also important 160 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:34,200 Speaker 10: to look at the composition of the weakness. It is 161 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 10: concentrated in those big socks, the Magnificent seven. Look at 162 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 10: those in isolation. Last year, they drove the market higher. 163 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 10: If I look at an index of those Magnificent seven 164 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 10: stops last year, that index was up sixty seven percent. 165 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 10: I'll say that again, sixty seven percent. So year today's 166 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:54,720 Speaker 10: it's down fifteen and a half. 167 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 2: But boy sixty seven is not too bad. 168 00:07:57,240 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 10: But it is very volatile, and we're seeing that volatile, 169 00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 10: particularly stocks like Tesla in nvidio. They're really moving it 170 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 10: around a lot, and that's dragging the index lower, which 171 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,080 Speaker 10: means that there's But what this does mean, there's less move. 172 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:12,240 Speaker 10: There are four hundred and ninety three other stocks in 173 00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 10: the S and P five hundred. If I look at 174 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 10: an equal weighted S and P five hundred, it's only 175 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 10: downe point eight four percent. So just give an idea 176 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 10: of the disproportionate effect of those big stocks. But all 177 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 10: of the Trump bumpers gone, those big risk gold moves 178 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:28,960 Speaker 10: that we saw as sentiment soared after he won the 179 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:31,800 Speaker 10: presidential election, that's gone. So you saw that in Tesley, 180 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:35,200 Speaker 10: saw that in cryptos. You know, Tesla's harved in value 181 00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 10: from where it was in December of life four hundred 182 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:39,320 Speaker 10: and seventy nine bucks. I remind people it's now two 183 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 10: hundred and twenty seven. Bitcoin surged one hundred and eight thousand, 184 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 10: you know, one hundred eight thousand dollars it's now, and it. 185 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 2: Fell to seventy nine yesterday. 186 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:50,880 Speaker 10: But the things might where to from here. The uncertainty, 187 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 10: it doesn't go away because you've seen more tariff changes overnight, 188 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:58,440 Speaker 10: another night, another tariff, but you don't. We've got that 189 00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:01,080 Speaker 10: big day in April, the second where lots of changes 190 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 10: that looms on the US tara front. So anything that could 191 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:05,839 Speaker 10: happened between now and then the other thing we need 192 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:08,040 Speaker 10: to remember, Mike, We've got this renegotiation of the US 193 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 10: debt ceiling that's happening this week as well, So more 194 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:15,360 Speaker 10: uncertainty there. Just quickly the local market. We as per usual, 195 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:17,439 Speaker 10: we had a fairly muted reaction. We only fel zero 196 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 10: point eight percent and a small fall in wholesale interest rates, 197 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:22,840 Speaker 10: so we were a far more steady and the currency 198 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 10: remained relatively stated as well, around fifty seven cent, so 199 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 10: at least we weren't being dragged too much into the madness. 200 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:32,000 Speaker 2: Okay, quickly give me the local spending because I look 201 00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:34,200 Speaker 2: at this, I see some light. Do I see light? 202 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 11: A little bit? 203 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:35,640 Speaker 5: Yeah? 204 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:38,320 Speaker 10: So from the macro big picture to the micro as 205 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:41,400 Speaker 10: well financial markets gyrate MIC people still go on about 206 00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 10: their day to day lives. Yes, that's new Zealand release 207 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:46,800 Speaker 10: card spending data today. But as an entre. Yesterday a 208 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 10: m Z released their card spending data for their network 209 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:53,680 Speaker 10: New Zealand's biggest banks, so illustrative. Overall spending rows one percent. 210 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:56,160 Speaker 10: That's good because we had a number of weaker outcomes. 211 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:59,600 Speaker 10: It's being led by business goods and services. Were still 212 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 10: see ending held back by the stuff that's censive to 213 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 10: interest rates, housing, durables, discretionary spending. Presumably those areas get 214 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:09,319 Speaker 10: a bit of a tailwind as interest rates continue to moderate. 215 00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 10: Tourism spend they my eye was drawn to this. It's 216 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:15,840 Speaker 10: still under pressure, down eleven percent year on year, so 217 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:18,520 Speaker 10: you seeing that in car rentals, accommodation. But we'll look 218 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:22,040 Speaker 10: for confirmation in the Statsu of Zealand numbers today speaking 219 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 10: numbers given to me, the Dow Jones is bearing the 220 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 10: brunt of the weakness to day.

Right if LaBelle aren't tipped into liquidation, 333 00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:55,040 Speaker 2: but the lunch is still continue, is the liquidation of 334 00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:56,560 Speaker 2: label the story. 335 00:15:57,880 --> 00:16:03,120 Speaker 18: No, it's a contract a between two parties that don't 336 00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 18: actually have a contract directly with We have contracted Compass 337 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:11,720 Speaker 18: leavell are a subcontractor to them. They have to sort 338 00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:15,320 Speaker 18: out their issue. Our issue was making sure that Compass 339 00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:18,560 Speaker 18: continues to deliver on its contract to the government on 340 00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:20,960 Speaker 18: behalf of the taxpayer and we're doing that. 341 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:25,320 Speaker 2: Okay, did you know about LaBelle when you signed up 342 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 2: with Compass. 343 00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:30,200 Speaker 18: Well, we certainly knew that they were the subcontractor you know, 344 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 18: they're in trouble. We were aware that they may have 345 00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:37,000 Speaker 18: some issues, but I mean that's always the case. We 346 00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:39,600 Speaker 18: didn't have any reason to believe that they would fail. 347 00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:42,920 Speaker 18: We just knew that they were signed up to deliver 348 00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 18: on certain terms. 349 00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:47,520 Speaker 2: Why would you sign up with anybody who you knew 350 00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 2: to have trouble. 351 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:51,880 Speaker 18: Because we didn't believe that there was any issue that 352 00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:56,200 Speaker 18: would lead to a problem. We simply undertook a contract 353 00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:59,800 Speaker 18: with Compass, and that contract is now being delivered. 354 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:04,800 Speaker 2: Told you that there wouldn't be a problem. Was that Compass. 355 00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:08,240 Speaker 18: That was done through the people that negotiated on behalf, 356 00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:13,520 Speaker 18: through the Ministry of Education. It wasn't well as specific individuals. 357 00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:16,359 Speaker 18: I'm not going to get public officials. 358 00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:19,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, so the ministry knew there could be troubled but 359 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:21,760 Speaker 2: were reassured there wasn't. They told you there could be trouble, 360 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 2: but they reassured you there wouldn't be. 361 00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:27,119 Speaker 18: Well, I think that's a fair summary. But there was 362 00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:29,840 Speaker 18: certainly no reason to think that they wouldn't deliver, and 363 00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:32,760 Speaker 18: there's been no interruption to the delivery of school lunches 364 00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:36,680 Speaker 18: as a result of this liquidation. Yesterday ninety nine point 365 00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:39,919 Speaker 18: ninety six was the level of on time delivery. 366 00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:43,080 Speaker 2: Would you concede that, given what you've faced in the 367 00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:45,160 Speaker 2: last couple of weeks, this doesn't help. 368 00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:47,720 Speaker 5: Well. 369 00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:50,440 Speaker 18: I think what we're doing is we're getting it into 370 00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:53,680 Speaker 18: a place where it's going to be a success. There 371 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:56,159 Speaker 18: have been problems with the school lunch program, but in 372 00:17:56,320 --> 00:18:01,720 Speaker 18: each instance we've been upfront, We've accepted problems and would 373 00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:05,080 Speaker 18: solve them. And frankly, I think what's needed is a 374 00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:08,479 Speaker 18: look at the wider picture here. The whole country is 375 00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:12,159 Speaker 18: in some financial trouble. We're short of money. Generally, a 376 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:15,200 Speaker 18: lot of people in their businesses and households are short 377 00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:17,840 Speaker 18: of money. What we're doing is saving up to one 378 00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:21,399 Speaker 18: hundred and seventy million a year while continuing to deliver 379 00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:22,000 Speaker 18: a program. 380 00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:25,480 Speaker 2: I idea. I get all of that. Does LaBelle in 381 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:30,439 Speaker 2: their troubles in any way, shape or form lead to 382 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:35,240 Speaker 2: the difficulties you've faced in terms of delivery exploding, meals, cooking, burning, 383 00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:35,800 Speaker 2: et cetera. 384 00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:41,159 Speaker 18: Well, I can't say whether that whether it has or hasn't, 385 00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:44,080 Speaker 18: for the simple reason that that comes down to a 386 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 18: contractual dispute between two other parties. As I say, our 387 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:52,200 Speaker 18: contracts is with Compass. As they work through that dispute, 388 00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:54,840 Speaker 18: the last thing they need is some politician going on 389 00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:58,679 Speaker 18: the radio giving their recons and pointing the finger. So 390 00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:01,440 Speaker 18: some people might come to that conclusion that I can't 391 00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:02,199 Speaker 18: go them. 392 00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:03,800 Speaker 2: I just look at how I conduct my life, and 393 00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:05,600 Speaker 2: I've wondered if you've made a mistake here. When I 394 00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:08,560 Speaker 2: hire people in life, I hire the best people, not 395 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:11,720 Speaker 2: the people who tell me, look there's something over there. 396 00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:13,520 Speaker 2: It might be a problem that might not be. I mean, 397 00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:15,800 Speaker 2: you were asking for trouble? Was that? Were they the 398 00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:18,080 Speaker 2: only people in the game? Is that the problem? 399 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:21,439 Speaker 18: No, I don't think so and so. 400 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:22,960 Speaker 2: Were they the only people in the game or not? 401 00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:28,680 Speaker 18: There's always a range of people that can satisfy a contract. 402 00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 2: The cheapest people in the game. 403 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:35,199 Speaker 18: Well, again, I'm not going to go into the exact 404 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:38,440 Speaker 18: procurement process, but what I can say is there were 405 00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:41,080 Speaker 18: lots of ways we could have done it. This way 406 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:45,480 Speaker 18: is delivering at half the price, and it's only going 407 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:47,400 Speaker 18: to get better when there's bees. 408 00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:49,840 Speaker 2: We've worked ever and continue to David, I've been on 409 00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:51,879 Speaker 2: your side on this and the only thing I've been 410 00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:54,080 Speaker 2: worried about is the delivery. If you say you're going 411 00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 2: to deliver, you've got to deliver. Lunchtime is lunchtime. It's 412 00:19:56,840 --> 00:19:58,760 Speaker 2: got to turn up. The rest of it's been just 413 00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 2: a shambolic pile on from the media and it's a disgrace. 414 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:05,879 Speaker 2: But if you went and hired mister cheapo, who you 415 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:08,040 Speaker 2: knew was a problem, and that problems come back to 416 00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:09,639 Speaker 2: bite you in the bum, that's on you, isn't it. 417 00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:14,920 Speaker 18: Well if it, actually it hasn't. What we've done is 418 00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:17,280 Speaker 18: overcome problems as they've arisen, when. 419 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:23,720 Speaker 2: Problems because you went with the cheapest person in town 420 00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:25,520 Speaker 2: who was always going to cause your problems, because that's 421 00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:27,800 Speaker 2: what cheap people do. In other words, if you'd hired 422 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 2: a decent operator, you wouldn't have had any problems in 423 00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:30,160 Speaker 2: the first place. 424 00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:31,960 Speaker 17: Well, that's a. 425 00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:34,520 Speaker 18: Good characterization and a good story, but I don't think 426 00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 18: it's true. 427 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:37,080 Speaker 2: It's a question. I'm just asking you. The question is 428 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:39,600 Speaker 2: that the case, Well, it's. 429 00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:42,320 Speaker 18: It's a characterization, and I reject it. I don't think 430 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:43,080 Speaker 18: that is the case. 431 00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:44,679 Speaker 2: So you don't think you went with the cheapest bid 432 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:50,680 Speaker 2: with with troubled people you knew to be troubled. 433 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:56,560 Speaker 18: No, I don't agree with that. When you do a procurement, 434 00:20:56,720 --> 00:21:00,840 Speaker 18: obviously there are a lot of different factors that you 435 00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:04,800 Speaker 18: used to choose a contractor. In this case, I think 436 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:08,359 Speaker 18: we did it right and where we've had issues, we'll 437 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:11,240 Speaker 18: solve them. That's actually the only way you're talk about 438 00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:12,360 Speaker 18: how you run your life. 439 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:15,879 Speaker 2: That's the way I run my life, David, is I 440 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,240 Speaker 2: hire people who do the job, who don't present me 441 00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:20,520 Speaker 2: with the problems, and I pay for that. That's how 442 00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:21,399 Speaker 2: I run my life. 443 00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:26,240 Speaker 18: And that's exactly what we're doing. Wherever there's been a problem. 444 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:28,520 Speaker 2: Apart from the apart from all the problems you've had, 445 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 2: and the company that's now in liquidation. 446 00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:36,240 Speaker 18: And again, the company that's in liquidation is not interrupting 447 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:40,359 Speaker 18: the delivery of meals. Where As I said yesterday after 448 00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:43,720 Speaker 18: they were liquidated, we achieved right up to one hundred 449 00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:46,000 Speaker 18: percent if you want a round, ninety nine point ninety 450 00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:49,840 Speaker 18: six percent timetime delivery. So I understand what you're saying, 451 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:52,879 Speaker 18: but the premise of your argument is that there's a 452 00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 18: problem due to the liquidation. 453 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:55,680 Speaker 17: There is no problem. 454 00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 2: I'm just asking what there is. If you can assure 455 00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:00,320 Speaker 2: me there isn't, that's fine, and the delivery continues. TV 456 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:02,080 Speaker 2: one thing last night, did you see it? 457 00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 18: I think they ran two stories if I'm right, okay? 458 00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:08,240 Speaker 2: Is that the most disgraceful form of I use the 459 00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 2: word really loose lead journalism we've seen in a long time. 460 00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:13,560 Speaker 2: I mean, that's what you're up against. This is a massive, 461 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:15,720 Speaker 2: almost state funded pylon. 462 00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:17,439 Speaker 17: Yeah. 463 00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:21,560 Speaker 18: Well, first of all, let's just remember that seventy five 464 00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:24,560 Speaker 18: percent of children have lunches made by their children. There's 465 00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:27,280 Speaker 18: an argument that that should be one hundred percent. The 466 00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:30,960 Speaker 18: government's got a policy that we're going to fund lunches 467 00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:34,360 Speaker 18: for twenty five actually about twenty seven percent of children 468 00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:37,000 Speaker 18: up and down New Zealand. My job is to do 469 00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:40,080 Speaker 18: that as efficiently as possible than we are. But I think, 470 00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:42,800 Speaker 18: as I mentioned earlier, you know, the media may have 471 00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,879 Speaker 18: missed the wider context here. The whole country needs an 472 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:49,680 Speaker 18: improvement in productivity. When somebody comes up with a way 473 00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:54,240 Speaker 18: to effectively double productivity by delivering the same nutrition. 474 00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:55,399 Speaker 17: At half the price. 475 00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 18: Then I think we should actually be asking ourselves, well, 476 00:22:58,440 --> 00:22:59,120 Speaker 18: is that a good thing? 477 00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:00,600 Speaker 17: Is that what we need more of? 478 00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 18: Are their problems? 479 00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:02,280 Speaker 17: Yes? 480 00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:05,440 Speaker 18: Is the guy in charge actually working through them each day, 481 00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:07,640 Speaker 18: overcoming them and making it better every day? 482 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 17: Yes? 483 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:11,120 Speaker 18: Is that exactly the kind of spirit that we need 484 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 18: in New ZealandI for to overcome a lot of other problems? 485 00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:14,959 Speaker 17: Yes, it is. 486 00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 18: Would you ever be able to explain that to certain 487 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:23,679 Speaker 18: journalists at tvn Z or three News? I suspect you can't, 488 00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:26,600 Speaker 18: and that's why their audiences are switching off, because people 489 00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:29,240 Speaker 18: want to see solutions and a way out of the 490 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:30,960 Speaker 18: various challenges we have in this country. 491 00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:33,240 Speaker 2: Appreciect time, David Seymour.

So he has made the decision to add 579 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:44,639 Speaker 12: a twenty five percent tariff. So now stealing aluminum tariffs 580 00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:48,199 Speaker 12: will come into effect tomorrow at the rate of fifty percent, 581 00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:52,240 Speaker 12: and our steel and aluminum industries have actually applauded these 582 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:54,879 Speaker 12: tariffs because again they know it's going to grow their 583 00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:57,800 Speaker 12: industry here, it's going to allow them to export more 584 00:27:57,880 --> 00:27:59,320 Speaker 12: steel that is made right here. 585 00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 5: Is that? 586 00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:04,520 Speaker 12: Then this question, does this administration still consider Canada to 587 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:08,040 Speaker 12: be a close ally of the United States? Well, I 588 00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:12,000 Speaker 12: think Canada is a neighbor. They are a partner, they 589 00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:14,480 Speaker 12: have always been an ally. Perhaps they are becoming a 590 00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:17,600 Speaker 12: competitor now, But as the President also laid out in 591 00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:20,800 Speaker 12: his True Social Post today, he believes that Canadians would 592 00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:23,960 Speaker 12: benefit greatly from becoming the fifty first state of the 593 00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:25,280 Speaker 12: United States of America. 594 00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:31,960 Speaker 1: By the ouse, it's the fizz with business fiber take 595 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:34,320 Speaker 1: your business productivity to the next level. 596 00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:36,679 Speaker 2: Mike Prebble's article in The Herald ends worth when the 597 00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:38,920 Speaker 2: elephants are dancing the myr should style off the dance floor. 598 00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:40,520 Speaker 2: It's a very good piece. He talks about the tariffs 599 00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:42,680 Speaker 2: and what we can do about it. Some insight KPMG's 600 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:47,360 Speaker 2: Financial Institution's performance survey just quickly for you. Profitability in 601 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:50,080 Speaker 2: banking seven point twenty two billion dollars last year, up 602 00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:51,960 Speaker 2: a little bit on twenty twenty three. Not a lot 603 00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:55,120 Speaker 2: need interest in come. Big reason for that difference between 604 00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:57,400 Speaker 2: revenue they're making on interest faring assets and the cost 605 00:28:57,440 --> 00:29:00,280 Speaker 2: of servicing them. That's personal lined mortgages or that thing 606 00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:03,200 Speaker 2: up three hundred and forty two million or two point 607 00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:07,200 Speaker 2: two three percent to fifteen point seven billion dollars. The 608 00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:10,760 Speaker 2: net interest margins remained at two point three four and 609 00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:13,480 Speaker 2: this is of great angst and upset to a number 610 00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:15,600 Speaker 2: of people, including my good self. But two point three 611 00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:17,800 Speaker 2: four percent, So who would we compare to? Oh, I 612 00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:20,720 Speaker 2: don't know the parent companies in Australia. How about that? Well, 613 00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:22,840 Speaker 2: the parent companies Australia run a margin of one point 614 00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:25,040 Speaker 2: four to three to one point eight four versus our 615 00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:29,000 Speaker 2: two point three four same bank, different country, different margin. 616 00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 2: I wonder if there's a question or two to be 617 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:33,720 Speaker 2: asked there, What if the government should look at that? 618 00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:42,040 Speaker 2: Right the business of procurement.

In other words, as the 641 00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:50,000 Speaker 2: government taking the right room to the right place. 642 00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:54,160 Speaker 17: Yeah, look absolutely, you know it still leads forty seven. 643 00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:56,400 Speaker 17: We're not throwing out the baby with the bath order. 644 00:30:56,400 --> 00:31:00,400 Speaker 17: We're streamlining procurement hasn't been located since twenty nine eighteen, 645 00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:03,640 Speaker 17: so it's about time. Some of these rules really are prescriptive. 646 00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:07,840 Speaker 17: You know, companies don't need to worry about requirement to 647 00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:14,240 Speaker 17: buy evs or buy office materials that are you know, 648 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:16,960 Speaker 17: low waste necessarily they need to focus on. 649 00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:19,080 Speaker 2: Now just explain, Do explain that because most people won't 650 00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:21,240 Speaker 2: know what you're talking about. So part of the humant process, 651 00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:23,280 Speaker 2: you go, I want to build this building, and they go, right, 652 00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:26,600 Speaker 2: how many EV's you got, how many carbon neutral chairs 653 00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:28,320 Speaker 2: have you got? Et cetera. That's the sort of nonsense 654 00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:29,000 Speaker 2: you have to fill out. 655 00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:33,120 Speaker 17: Right, Absolutely, there's a lot of red tape, and there 656 00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:39,680 Speaker 17: are these requirements that they are meant to put down 657 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:42,040 Speaker 17: as part of their tent or their bids. But those 658 00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:46,520 Speaker 17: are things that really create a burden. And as I say, 659 00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:50,400 Speaker 17: don't sort of really focus on those important things that 660 00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:52,760 Speaker 17: those companies have the sort of odd of value of 661 00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:55,920 Speaker 17: things that they should be delivering for construction, not those 662 00:31:56,680 --> 00:32:00,520 Speaker 17: other things that sort of achieve why aims aroun sustainability. 663 00:31:59,840 --> 00:32:03,880 Speaker 2: For example, Right, what does worry me slightly building new 664 00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:07,080 Speaker 2: non residential government buildings to a five star standard? They 665 00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:08,760 Speaker 2: no longer have to be five star? What's wrong with 666 00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:09,280 Speaker 2: five star? 667 00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:13,120 Speaker 17: Well, I think I think they're just saying look, rather 668 00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:17,000 Speaker 17: than you know, they still have to meet the code. 669 00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:21,360 Speaker 17: They still have to meet all the obvious criteria that 670 00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:24,400 Speaker 17: we already have for you know, a very high quality 671 00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:27,960 Speaker 17: built environment. But going to the nth degree to have 672 00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:31,400 Speaker 17: a five star rating probably is unnecessary. It's fit like 673 00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:34,920 Speaker 17: what they're looking at with the H one. It's let's 674 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:37,440 Speaker 17: let's deliver what we need as part of our code 675 00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:41,080 Speaker 17: and to have safe, you know, quality warm homes, but 676 00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:42,280 Speaker 17: we don't need to go overboard. 677 00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:44,840 Speaker 2: Okay, good stuff. Julian, appreciate your insight very much. Julian 678 00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:47,720 Speaker 2: lais who's with the Building Industry Federation. He's the boss there. 679 00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:49,080 Speaker 2: Ten minutes past seven. 680 00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:54,480 Speaker 1: This is news Talksking News. 681 00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:56,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, so where are we at with the war and 682 00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:58,560 Speaker 2: peace talks? This is in read in Saudi Arabia. I'man 683 00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:00,840 Speaker 2: and KIV. Jimmy Russian's back. There's Jimmy morning. 684 00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:02,640 Speaker 5: Hi, good morning. 685 00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:03,440 Speaker 2: We got a deal. 686 00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:09,320 Speaker 16: Well, we seem to have a significant progress. Yes, in 687 00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:12,240 Speaker 16: the last few minutes. This is very much breaking news. 688 00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:14,960 Speaker 16: So a lot of details are still emerging, but both 689 00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:18,400 Speaker 16: sides have released a joint statement which says that security 690 00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:22,240 Speaker 16: assistance to Ukraine, American security stint Ukraine and intelligence sharing 691 00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:26,320 Speaker 16: will be restored, so weapons and American intelligence will now 692 00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:28,320 Speaker 16: be shared again with the Ukrainians. There was a pause 693 00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:32,600 Speaker 16: on that. There's also going to be a proposed thirty 694 00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:37,880 Speaker 16: day ceasefire, which is obviously contingent on the Russians agreeing. 695 00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:42,920 Speaker 16: But this is significant development for the Ukrainian government. It's 696 00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:45,280 Speaker 16: a major win because obviously they're going to have American 697 00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:46,840 Speaker 16: weapons slowing back into the country. 698 00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:50,760 Speaker 2: Now this seems to have got sorted out really quickly. 699 00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:52,760 Speaker 2: Did they predetermine a lot of this turn up in 700 00:33:52,760 --> 00:33:55,080 Speaker 2: Saudi Arabia and basically pull their pins out and sign it? 701 00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:59,240 Speaker 16: So essentially we know that Zelenski had sent a letter 702 00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:04,040 Speaker 16: to Trump apologizing for, you know, the confrontation in the 703 00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:08,080 Speaker 16: White House. I think he was very gracious in that apology, because, 704 00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:09,680 Speaker 16: to be honest, I don't think he had that much 705 00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:12,040 Speaker 16: to apologize for, to be honest, But anyway, he kind 706 00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:14,640 Speaker 16: of fell on his sword a little bit, and you know, 707 00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:17,680 Speaker 16: was the bigger man. He sent that letter, and then 708 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:20,000 Speaker 16: there was a high level delegation the US Sector of 709 00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:22,520 Speaker 16: State and they managed to hash it out. I think 710 00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:25,560 Speaker 16: the Ukrainians are doing everything they can to demonstrate that 711 00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:27,840 Speaker 16: they are ready for peace, that they are ready to, 712 00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:31,120 Speaker 16: you know, end this war which has lasted for three 713 00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:34,200 Speaker 16: years now and has cost hundreds of thousands of lives. 714 00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:37,080 Speaker 2: We've got half the equation, though, did the Russians, seemingly 715 00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:43,160 Speaker 2: from Levro particularly, appear to be conceding nothing. What happens there, well, 716 00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:43,920 Speaker 2: that's the big question. 717 00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:48,440 Speaker 16: So obviously the Americans have tried to pressure Ukraine to 718 00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:51,479 Speaker 16: come to terms, and they they've succeeded in their way. 719 00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:56,160 Speaker 16: But we're waiting to see what pressure they will attempt 720 00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:58,640 Speaker 16: to put on the Russians, if any, in order to 721 00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:00,400 Speaker 16: get them to agree as well, because obviou you can 722 00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:03,600 Speaker 16: only have a ceasefire if both sides agrees, And now 723 00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:06,240 Speaker 16: the ball is very much in Moscow's court exactly. 724 00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:08,080 Speaker 2: Jimmy, good to catch up with you. We'll talk again soon. 725 00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:10,800 Speaker 2: Jimmy Russian who's in klieve he is Marco and Saudi 726 00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:12,040 Speaker 2: Arabia line. 727 00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:14,760 Speaker 14: Today, we've made an offer that the Ukrainians have accepted, 728 00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:19,360 Speaker 14: which is to enter into a ceasefire, into immediate negotiations 729 00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:21,400 Speaker 14: to end this conflict in a way that's enduring and 730 00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:25,480 Speaker 14: sustainable and accounts for their interests, their security, their ability 731 00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:28,440 Speaker 14: to prosper as a nation. I want to personally think 732 00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:30,520 Speaker 14: we both want to thank the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia 733 00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:33,120 Speaker 14: Majesty for hosting us, for making this possible. They've been 734 00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:35,799 Speaker 14: instrumental in this process and we're very grateful to them 735 00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:37,880 Speaker 14: for hosting us here today and Osky. 736 00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:40,680 Speaker 2: So there we go. Sounds positive balls in the Russians 737 00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:42,120 Speaker 2: court and that's going to be a sticky one. As 738 00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:44,839 Speaker 2: my strong suspicion. Thirty minutes past seven, Mike, the most 739 00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:46,960 Speaker 2: expensive people are not always the best earted. This goes 740 00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:49,240 Speaker 2: back to David Seymour and the lunch. I'm not arguing 741 00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:51,239 Speaker 2: for the most expensive people. What I want to know 742 00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:55,319 Speaker 2: is as a government, who are procuring the service that 743 00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:57,960 Speaker 2: you know is controversial because you're looking to save money. 744 00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:01,080 Speaker 2: Nothing wrong with saving money, you know is going to 745 00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:04,640 Speaker 2: be controversial, and it's proven to be so. When you 746 00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:08,160 Speaker 2: know within that mix is a company that has financial difficulties, 747 00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:10,960 Speaker 2: do you not have some sort of red flag somewhere 748 00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:14,520 Speaker 2: that goes I wonder if this goes tits up, whether 749 00:36:14,600 --> 00:36:16,799 Speaker 2: this is politically going to damage me. So he spent 750 00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:20,520 Speaker 2: the last three or four weeks putting out fires and 751 00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:22,799 Speaker 2: this is just another fire. This is grist to the 752 00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:26,239 Speaker 2: mill to this monumental pilon. We've seen over the last 753 00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:29,760 Speaker 2: couple of weeks of people who are determined to literally 754 00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:33,279 Speaker 2: wine their way to some sort of victory line as 755 00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:35,560 Speaker 2: they see it. And last night's news and a lot 756 00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:38,120 Speaker 2: of you're onto the TV one news if you didn't 757 00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:40,080 Speaker 2: see the story, don't watch it. But believe me, it 758 00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:42,320 Speaker 2: was a new low for New Zealand journalism, if you 759 00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:45,480 Speaker 2: call it that literally. It was a story where the 760 00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:48,799 Speaker 2: school encouraged the kids to throw their lunches in a 761 00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:52,280 Speaker 2: big bucket. It was spag bowl. As explaining to Andrew earlier, 762 00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:57,640 Speaker 2: it's spag bowl. You cannot make spag bowl inedible. It's impossible. 763 00:36:57,719 --> 00:37:01,000 Speaker 2: Everyone's mother made spag bowl. It might not have been 764 00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:02,719 Speaker 2: the best spag bowl in the history of the world, 765 00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:06,200 Speaker 2: but it was perfectly edible. We all ate it. To 766 00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:09,400 Speaker 2: encourage kids to throw that out. Taxpayers money in a 767 00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:12,600 Speaker 2: bucket to be fed to the pigs is not news. 768 00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:17,399 Speaker 2: It's not journalism. It's a low form of clickbaitism. Myke 769 00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:19,520 Speaker 2: Capitol rules in New Zealand result in the higher margin 770 00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:21,960 Speaker 2: of New Zealand and in Australia. You've bought the Adrian 771 00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:24,839 Speaker 2: All line. I mean you're partially right, but not totally right. 772 00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:27,160 Speaker 2: And that is why the government are looking at the 773 00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:30,640 Speaker 2: competitiveness or lack of it currently in the banking sector 774 00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:32,600 Speaker 2: in New Zealand. Fifteen past seven. 775 00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:38,120 Speaker 1: The Like Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered 776 00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:39,160 Speaker 1: by News Talks at. 777 00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:42,719 Speaker 2: B and the really incongruous bit that they keep forgetting 778 00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:46,360 Speaker 2: because they keep tripping over themselves in this endless coverage, 779 00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:49,000 Speaker 2: is that they keep telling us the kids are hungry. 780 00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:52,120 Speaker 2: Kids are so hungry and hungry kids cannot learn. That 781 00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:55,280 Speaker 2: was the mantra, and hence the school lunch program got invented. 782 00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:57,520 Speaker 2: They are so hungry they cannot learn. So if we 783 00:37:57,600 --> 00:37:59,879 Speaker 2: accept all that, suddenly they're not hungry enough to eat food. 784 00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:02,359 Speaker 2: They're only hungry enough to eat the food that they 785 00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:06,040 Speaker 2: particularly enjoy, are they So the shot of these so 786 00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:09,320 Speaker 2: called hungry kids who have had no breakfast and no 787 00:38:09,480 --> 00:38:13,040 Speaker 2: lunch can then throw their food out because they're not 788 00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:15,680 Speaker 2: really that hungry, or there are hungry, but they're only 789 00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:18,920 Speaker 2: hungry when the food suits and then come on, I 790 00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:21,760 Speaker 2: wish I had more time with David Seymour because he's 791 00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:26,279 Speaker 2: looking for people for the Pharmacy Council currently, and you 792 00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:29,759 Speaker 2: put out yesterday the competency's standards required. And this goes 793 00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:31,719 Speaker 2: to why we can't bring people into the country with 794 00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:35,799 Speaker 2: any skills, because this is the nonsense they face. This 795 00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:38,200 Speaker 2: is just a small selection to be a pharmacist in 796 00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:40,560 Speaker 2: this country. You need to explain the impacts of pre 797 00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:42,960 Speaker 2: and post taturity o Way Tangy events on the health 798 00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:46,640 Speaker 2: of our tier own New Zealanders. Hell, does that mean 799 00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:49,319 Speaker 2: you need to demonstrate critical awareness of the health the 800 00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:52,800 Speaker 2: initiatives aiming to imbed tatiity oh Way Tangy into healthcare practice. 801 00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:55,920 Speaker 2: Explain the meaning of Tino rangetira tongua and how it 802 00:38:56,040 --> 00:38:58,319 Speaker 2: is relevant to the delivery of health services. I've been 803 00:38:58,320 --> 00:39:00,359 Speaker 2: here my whole sixty years. I can't explain that, Tea. 804 00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:01,880 Speaker 2: I'm not a pharmacist, I know, but I can't even 805 00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:03,239 Speaker 2: begin to explain that to you. What the hell does 806 00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:08,920 Speaker 2: that mean. I've followed the Treaty Settlements Bill submissions and 807 00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:10,719 Speaker 2: they can't agree on the treaty. So if they can't 808 00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:12,600 Speaker 2: agree on the treaty, do you think they can agree 809 00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:15,239 Speaker 2: on the meaning of tino rangeteer ratanner and how it's 810 00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:17,440 Speaker 2: relevant to the delivery of health services. I doubt it. 811 00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:19,359 Speaker 2: I think you can find one person who says one thing, 812 00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:22,960 Speaker 2: another person who says another. Explain healthy inequities that Maori 813 00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:27,240 Speaker 2: communities experience and how this influences own practice.

Ever a day pasking why 841 00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:52,719 Speaker 2: not fix it? That's my point, Mike. The thing I 842 00:40:52,760 --> 00:40:55,480 Speaker 2: can't understand is why Luxon simply not done a Trump 843 00:40:55,480 --> 00:40:58,160 Speaker 2: and I overturned all these stupid practices and legislation. Well, 844 00:40:58,160 --> 00:41:00,640 Speaker 2: the Pomme's not Trump, and he's not a president, and 845 00:41:00,640 --> 00:41:03,319 Speaker 2: he doesn't have executive order powers obviously, but what he 846 00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:05,520 Speaker 2: does have is a government, and he did make some 847 00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:08,200 Speaker 2: promises and it's all very well, David Seymore saying, have 848 00:41:08,239 --> 00:41:09,799 Speaker 2: a look at this. How ridiculous is this? And we 849 00:41:09,840 --> 00:41:12,560 Speaker 2: all go, yes, it is ridiculous. You are in government, 850 00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:14,120 Speaker 2: you've been in government for a year and a half. 851 00:41:14,360 --> 00:41:17,320 Speaker 2: You made some fairly specific promises in this area. Why 852 00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:21,279 Speaker 2: have you not done anything about it? Which brings me 853 00:41:21,320 --> 00:41:23,080 Speaker 2: to my trip to work this morning. Actually, i'll do 854 00:41:23,080 --> 00:41:26,719 Speaker 2: that in the moment. We shall all, by the way, 855 00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:28,759 Speaker 2: give a shout out, or at least take a few 856 00:41:28,800 --> 00:41:33,200 Speaker 2: moments to read lyric Wirery Smith's account of the Treaty 857 00:41:33,239 --> 00:41:36,759 Speaker 2: Settlement's Bill submissions. Now she works for the spinoff. She 858 00:41:36,960 --> 00:41:40,160 Speaker 2: sat through it seems virtually all of the eighty hours 859 00:41:40,160 --> 00:41:43,359 Speaker 2: of submissions, and cast a series of observations by way 860 00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:46,120 Speaker 2: of a fifty things I learnedless Now. One of the 861 00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:48,799 Speaker 2: things she learned, in fact thirty seventh was the lack 862 00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:51,239 Speaker 2: of media coverage and the lack of media interest. Now, 863 00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:53,360 Speaker 2: you may recall, at the start of this particular process 864 00:41:53,440 --> 00:41:56,720 Speaker 2: it was a mad water wall, blow by blow account 865 00:41:56,760 --> 00:42:01,919 Speaker 2: of what was one of the country's in exciting word, contentious, outrageous, 866 00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:05,480 Speaker 2: heinous acts of the modern age. Fast forward a few days. 867 00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:08,120 Speaker 2: She was the only one left along with Mary Television, 868 00:42:08,840 --> 00:42:10,960 Speaker 2: So there's a lesson in that. On one hand, I 869 00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:13,080 Speaker 2: suppose you could mount an argument that the media is 870 00:42:13,080 --> 00:42:16,000 Speaker 2: so trimmed down these days, resourceful, lengthy procedures is limited. 871 00:42:16,280 --> 00:42:18,560 Speaker 2: Or you can also argue, and this is my argument, 872 00:42:18,760 --> 00:42:21,319 Speaker 2: the media are two magpie ish and fascinate themselves with 873 00:42:21,400 --> 00:42:24,320 Speaker 2: shiny things, lose interest too quickly, and as such enhance 874 00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:27,480 Speaker 2: the reputation as fly by nitis, interested in cliques, not 875 00:42:27,640 --> 00:42:30,960 Speaker 2: knowledge my work. Cover it properly or don't cover it 876 00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:33,279 Speaker 2: at all could be a guiding idea. Some of the 877 00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:35,719 Speaker 2: fifty things are a bit lightish in nature, and some 878 00:42:35,880 --> 00:42:37,759 Speaker 2: of this is not a criticism of the piece. In fact, 879 00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:39,680 Speaker 2: we should all be grateful someone bother to give us 880 00:42:39,680 --> 00:42:42,359 Speaker 2: this overarching insight. Hence it behooves us to absorb it. 881 00:42:42,520 --> 00:42:46,640 Speaker 2: But some basically tell you what you thought they would, Namely, 882 00:42:46,680 --> 00:42:48,840 Speaker 2: a lot of people turned up as you would expect, 883 00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:51,239 Speaker 2: to hate on it, thus drawing into questioning the whole 884 00:42:51,280 --> 00:42:54,160 Speaker 2: submission process. Is it really worth anything? Does it achieve anything? 885 00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:54,400 Speaker 13: More? 886 00:42:54,440 --> 00:42:54,880 Speaker 2: Importantly? 887 00:42:54,920 --> 00:42:55,120 Speaker 5: For me? 888 00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:59,200 Speaker 2: Was my suspicion? Was confirmed that there remains great debate 889 00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:02,080 Speaker 2: over the treaty and its principles, and as such David 890 00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:04,400 Speaker 2: Seymour was more than right to do what he has done. 891 00:43:04,640 --> 00:43:07,360 Speaker 2: The High and Mighty turned up and basically argued with 892 00:43:07,440 --> 00:43:10,840 Speaker 2: each other. The treaty is not settled, or anywhere close 893 00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:13,439 Speaker 2: to it. It is not defined. Now you can find 894 00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:15,680 Speaker 2: scholars and lawyers and experts will tell you the one thing, 895 00:43:16,239 --> 00:43:19,200 Speaker 2: full of them, full of vigor and eloquence, and then 896 00:43:19,239 --> 00:43:23,120 Speaker 2: you can find another equally qualified person saying exactly the opposite, 897 00:43:23,160 --> 00:43:25,200 Speaker 2: and how wrong they are. Hence we are where we 898 00:43:25,239 --> 00:43:27,880 Speaker 2: are and where we are. Sadly, is that for now 899 00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:29,520 Speaker 2: the end of the road, because the bill, as we 900 00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:31,840 Speaker 2: all know, will be voted down, which is a shame 901 00:43:32,320 --> 00:43:36,160 Speaker 2: given as Miss Smith's list surely shows a definitive understanding. 902 00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:40,920 Speaker 2: Is well and truly overdue. Asking which brings me my 903 00:43:41,600 --> 00:43:42,600 Speaker 2: trip to work this morning. 904 00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:45,440 Speaker 5: And it was. 905 00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:51,280 Speaker 2: So many cones I cannot even tell you another Simian 906 00:43:51,360 --> 00:43:55,520 Speaker 2: Brown special cones are over speed limits are going up, 907 00:43:55,960 --> 00:44:00,440 Speaker 2: Morrification's gone, but I'm wading my way through cone. I 908 00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:03,320 Speaker 2: turned left to see that it was a whole intersection 909 00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:08,640 Speaker 2: left right forward, backwards behind me, trucks, cones, lights. You 910 00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:11,680 Speaker 2: would think they were literally building the new Manu Stadium. 911 00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:13,760 Speaker 2: But no, there was one guy on a corner looking 912 00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:17,320 Speaker 2: in a man hole. Anyway, I'd come around the corner. 913 00:44:17,440 --> 00:44:21,440 Speaker 2: More thousands of leading up to the intersection, hundreds of 914 00:44:21,520 --> 00:44:24,920 Speaker 2: meters of cones, hundreds of cones just lined up for 915 00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:27,680 Speaker 2: a grain collection at two thirty in the morning of 916 00:44:28,360 --> 00:44:31,360 Speaker 2: well me and then because there were so many cones, 917 00:44:31,640 --> 00:44:33,319 Speaker 2: I was thinking to myself because going down this road, 918 00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:34,640 Speaker 2: I thought, how am I going to turn right? Because 919 00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:36,759 Speaker 2: I need to turn right. How am I going to 920 00:44:36,760 --> 00:44:40,360 Speaker 2: turn right into my little road? So many cones? So 921 00:44:40,480 --> 00:44:43,680 Speaker 2: it became a chicane. I liam lawsened myself and pretended 922 00:44:43,719 --> 00:44:46,640 Speaker 2: I was at Elbert Park this coming weekend and got through. 923 00:44:46,680 --> 00:44:48,840 Speaker 2: But really for all the stuff, and this is why, 924 00:44:48,920 --> 00:44:51,640 Speaker 2: as I keep saying this government has the polling trouble 925 00:44:51,640 --> 00:44:55,560 Speaker 2: they have. Do not promise stuff if you don't deliver it. 926 00:44:56,160 --> 00:44:59,320 Speaker 2: You said very specifically, road cones were gone, speed limits 927 00:44:59,320 --> 00:45:03,479 Speaker 2: were up, The bollocks is disappearing, the molorification is over. 928 00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:05,640 Speaker 2: The economy is We're going to get that fired up 929 00:45:05,640 --> 00:45:07,160 Speaker 2: and ready to go. A year and a half in 930 00:45:07,760 --> 00:45:11,040 Speaker 2: runs on the board are required, and that is why 931 00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:15,120 Speaker 2: New Zealanders are growing increasingly frustrated. Nikola Willis is. 932 00:45:15,120 --> 00:45:20,640 Speaker 1: Next your source of breaking news, challenging opinion and honored facts. 933 00:45:20,880 --> 00:45:25,320 Speaker 1: The Mike Husking Breakfast with a Vita, Retirement, Communities, Life 934 00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:26,920 Speaker 1: your Way, News dogs head be. 935 00:45:27,200 --> 00:45:29,040 Speaker 2: Just joining us. The good news out of Saudi is 936 00:45:29,080 --> 00:45:31,479 Speaker 2: that Rubio has managed to get the Ukrainians on board, 937 00:45:31,560 --> 00:45:33,600 Speaker 2: or the Ukrainians of Equiesta or whatever you want to 938 00:45:33,600 --> 00:45:36,560 Speaker 2: say it. We've got a deal of sorts towards a ceasefire. 939 00:45:36,680 --> 00:45:38,879 Speaker 14: Is Rubia the only way out to end this war 940 00:45:39,080 --> 00:45:41,320 Speaker 14: is to negotiate out of it. There's no military solution 941 00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:43,239 Speaker 14: to this war. The solution to this war and the 942 00:45:43,239 --> 00:45:46,960 Speaker 14: way to end it and to achieve the President's objective 943 00:45:47,000 --> 00:45:50,400 Speaker 14: of peace is to negotiate. But before you can negotiate, 944 00:45:50,440 --> 00:45:52,200 Speaker 14: you have to stop shooting at each other. And that's 945 00:45:52,239 --> 00:45:54,200 Speaker 14: what the President has wanted to see and that's what 946 00:45:54,360 --> 00:45:56,520 Speaker 14: that's the commitment we got today from the Ukrainian side, 947 00:45:56,560 --> 00:45:58,920 Speaker 14: their willingness to do that obviously, now that I'll be 948 00:45:58,960 --> 00:45:59,960 Speaker 14: delivered to the Russia. 949 00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:02,960 Speaker 2: Yes, exactly. This is Mike Watz, who's also with Rubio. 950 00:46:03,239 --> 00:46:06,480 Speaker 20: The President has made it clear and certainly made it 951 00:46:06,480 --> 00:46:09,920 Speaker 20: clear to us that off fighting needs to stop, and 952 00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:14,600 Speaker 20: the Ukrainians have agreed to that proposal. They're ready for peace, 953 00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:17,839 Speaker 20: and now we'll take that to the Russians and get 954 00:46:17,880 --> 00:46:18,400 Speaker 20: their response. 955 00:46:18,480 --> 00:46:20,879 Speaker 2: Now, my concern here is that the Russians are giving 956 00:46:20,960 --> 00:46:24,600 Speaker 2: up nothing unless they're blustering, which they probably are, at 957 00:46:24,640 --> 00:46:26,520 Speaker 2: which point, if they do give up nothing and there 958 00:46:26,600 --> 00:46:29,840 Speaker 2: is no deal, does Trump then make good on the 959 00:46:29,880 --> 00:46:32,520 Speaker 2: promise that he's going to sanction the Bejesus out of 960 00:46:32,560 --> 00:46:36,680 Speaker 2: them until he's forcing them to the table. And if 961 00:46:36,680 --> 00:46:41,040 Speaker 2: he does all of that and the war ends, Surely 962 00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:43,200 Speaker 2: the question needs to be asked of Biden, why couldn't 963 00:46:43,239 --> 00:46:45,239 Speaker 2: he do the same thing? And surely the question needs 964 00:46:45,239 --> 00:46:47,080 Speaker 2: to be asked of Europe Why couldn't they achieve the 965 00:46:47,080 --> 00:46:50,279 Speaker 2: same thing? Or is there something in the deal that's 966 00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:52,440 Speaker 2: yet to be sorted out that the Europeans are not 967 00:46:52,520 --> 00:46:54,960 Speaker 2: happy with? In other words, Ukraine almost certainly is going 968 00:46:55,000 --> 00:46:58,040 Speaker 2: to have to acquiesce on some territory and what sort 969 00:46:58,080 --> 00:47:00,000 Speaker 2: of guarantees are there from the Americans point of view 970 00:47:00,080 --> 00:47:03,520 Speaker 2: you as to whether the Russians roll again and all that. 971 00:47:03,560 --> 00:47:04,799 Speaker 2: I mean, there's a lot of water still to go 972 00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:06,680 Speaker 2: under the bridge. But I mean the main question being 973 00:47:06,719 --> 00:47:08,600 Speaker 2: if you can end a war in a couple of 974 00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:11,200 Speaker 2: months as president, why couldn't every other president, every other 975 00:47:11,200 --> 00:47:12,799 Speaker 2: prime minister all over the world in the last three 976 00:47:12,840 --> 00:47:15,200 Speaker 2: years do exactly the same thing? Twenty one minutes away 977 00:47:15,239 --> 00:47:25,359 Speaker 2: from it politics Wednesday, I love this song back, Bruce 978 00:47:25,400 --> 00:47:31,040 Speaker 2: Hornsby wrote, Do you really? Bruce Hornsby wrote, And that's 979 00:47:31,040 --> 00:47:32,439 Speaker 2: the other thing I need to say. We need Bruce 980 00:47:32,480 --> 00:47:37,239 Speaker 2: Hornsby on the program because we've never had him on 981 00:47:37,280 --> 00:47:38,719 Speaker 2: the program and we need to have him honor us. 982 00:47:38,760 --> 00:47:47,200 Speaker 2: There such a great musician who also on the program. Well, 983 00:47:47,360 --> 00:47:50,080 Speaker 2: Steve Walling, why not? Well he didn't write the series 984 00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:53,400 Speaker 2: only thing anyway? Where am I? Back to the procurement 985 00:47:53,440 --> 00:47:56,200 Speaker 2: business where these local businesses get some sort of foot 986 00:47:56,280 --> 00:47:57,880 Speaker 2: up when it comes to bidding for government work. A 987 00:47:57,880 --> 00:47:59,960 Speaker 2: lot of rules get dropped, which is good a small 988 00:48:00,160 --> 00:48:03,640 Speaker 2: deals under one hundred thousand k deal. The expectation is 989 00:48:03,760 --> 00:48:06,480 Speaker 2: the local will get the job anyway. The Economic Growth 990 00:48:06,520 --> 00:48:08,400 Speaker 2: Minister Nicolai willis on this good morning. 991 00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:09,359 Speaker 13: And a very good morning to you. 992 00:48:09,480 --> 00:48:12,200 Speaker 2: The price aspect, do are we being gouged? 993 00:48:12,280 --> 00:48:12,360 Speaker 24: Do? 994 00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:14,919 Speaker 2: A lot of big international players come in low ball 995 00:48:15,000 --> 00:48:16,680 Speaker 2: it and then try and recoup later. 996 00:48:17,200 --> 00:48:19,920 Speaker 15: Look, I do hear that from some small businesses who 997 00:48:19,960 --> 00:48:22,680 Speaker 15: are trying to get government contracts. Which they also tell 998 00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:25,640 Speaker 15: me is look, we seem to sometimes know the price 999 00:48:25,680 --> 00:48:29,080 Speaker 15: of everything and the value of nothing, which is to say, 1000 00:48:29,200 --> 00:48:31,480 Speaker 15: it's all very well and good. The Aussie firm pipping 1001 00:48:31,520 --> 00:48:33,600 Speaker 15: the key, we firm at the post at a lower price. 1002 00:48:33,760 --> 00:48:36,360 Speaker 15: But then what about the opportunities that robs from New 1003 00:48:36,440 --> 00:48:40,960 Speaker 15: Zealanders in terms of job, skill development, the building of 1004 00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:43,480 Speaker 15: a small business into a larger business. And we do 1005 00:48:43,600 --> 00:48:46,160 Speaker 15: need to take that into account and that's what these 1006 00:48:46,160 --> 00:48:47,480 Speaker 15: new rules allow us to do. 1007 00:48:47,840 --> 00:48:50,560 Speaker 2: Can you are there people who are genuinely any good 1008 00:48:51,120 --> 00:48:52,960 Speaker 2: at big stuff? I mean the small stuff I'll come 1009 00:48:52,960 --> 00:48:55,120 Speaker 2: to in a moment, but the big stuff, if you 1010 00:48:55,200 --> 00:48:57,480 Speaker 2: can go local, are there people to make it local? 1011 00:48:58,400 --> 00:49:02,080 Speaker 15: Well, let's think about it. So you think about Datacom. 1012 00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:06,359 Speaker 15: Actually they are an at scale firm who specialize in 1013 00:49:06,600 --> 00:49:09,960 Speaker 15: a delivery of digital services. And there are other firms 1014 00:49:10,520 --> 00:49:13,280 Speaker 15: that are of a similar scale. Are there bigger firms 1015 00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:14,680 Speaker 15: in Australasia and in Asia? 1016 00:49:14,800 --> 00:49:17,759 Speaker 13: Sure there are. But how do you become a bigger firm? 1017 00:49:17,800 --> 00:49:20,040 Speaker 15: You actually get a few big contracts, you build up 1018 00:49:20,080 --> 00:49:23,000 Speaker 15: your skill and your expertise over time, and that is 1019 00:49:23,040 --> 00:49:25,399 Speaker 15: the case. Similar in the construction area or in many 1020 00:49:25,400 --> 00:49:29,160 Speaker 15: other areas. It's actually getting the big government contracts sometimes 1021 00:49:29,360 --> 00:49:31,720 Speaker 15: that allows a firm to get to an expert size. 1022 00:49:31,840 --> 00:49:34,440 Speaker 2: Okay, so here we are Wednesday morning and you're waiving 1023 00:49:34,520 --> 00:49:37,600 Speaker 2: the patriotism flag. Tomorrow you're going to be saying to 1024 00:49:37,600 --> 00:49:39,880 Speaker 2: all the international big boys have flown into the country, 1025 00:49:39,920 --> 00:49:41,759 Speaker 2: come on and we love you. So how do those 1026 00:49:41,760 --> 00:49:42,840 Speaker 2: two messages dovetail? 1027 00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:47,120 Speaker 15: Well, I only want firms coming to New Zealand to 1028 00:49:47,239 --> 00:49:50,160 Speaker 15: invest if I can be clear that they're going to 1029 00:49:50,200 --> 00:49:54,720 Speaker 15: create benefits for New Zealanders. So when international firms come here, 1030 00:49:55,080 --> 00:49:58,520 Speaker 15: often it's their investment that will allow New Zealand businesses 1031 00:49:58,560 --> 00:50:01,319 Speaker 15: to expand, to create more jobs, to invest in the 1032 00:50:01,360 --> 00:50:04,440 Speaker 15: next piece of kiss or the next factory that allows 1033 00:50:04,440 --> 00:50:07,279 Speaker 15: them to pay hire incomes. So this is about the 1034 00:50:07,280 --> 00:50:09,880 Speaker 15: fact that we're in a race for the world's money, 1035 00:50:10,520 --> 00:50:13,279 Speaker 15: and international money when it comes to New Zealand can 1036 00:50:13,360 --> 00:50:14,560 Speaker 15: benefit Kiwis. 1037 00:50:14,680 --> 00:50:15,400 Speaker 13: That's the point. 1038 00:50:16,200 --> 00:50:19,560 Speaker 2: As far as this procurement thing goes, this value to 1039 00:50:19,680 --> 00:50:22,680 Speaker 2: New Zealand, who decides that how's it literally measured? 1040 00:50:23,680 --> 00:50:27,160 Speaker 15: So literally, what we're doing is requiring every gauge agency 1041 00:50:27,200 --> 00:50:31,120 Speaker 15: that's using public money that it must require that their suppliers, 1042 00:50:31,200 --> 00:50:35,040 Speaker 15: when they're tendering for projects, must demonstrate how they will 1043 00:50:35,040 --> 00:50:37,720 Speaker 15: deliver economic benefits to New Zealand. 1044 00:50:38,160 --> 00:50:38,279 Speaker 17: And. 1045 00:50:38,360 --> 00:50:41,359 Speaker 15: Agencies are required to wait that as at least ten 1046 00:50:41,400 --> 00:50:43,840 Speaker 15: percent of how they decide on the contract, and they 1047 00:50:43,920 --> 00:50:48,960 Speaker 15: must consider opportunities like providing skills and training, employing workers here, 1048 00:50:49,000 --> 00:50:54,000 Speaker 15: paying taxes here, developing New Zealand industry capabilities, and agencies 1049 00:50:54,040 --> 00:50:57,680 Speaker 15: need to demonstrate when they've picked those contracts how they 1050 00:50:57,719 --> 00:50:58,800 Speaker 15: measured those things. 1051 00:51:00,640 --> 00:51:02,800 Speaker 2: I just can't work out in a country that's broke 1052 00:51:03,400 --> 00:51:05,920 Speaker 2: and we hire the cheapest, suddenly we're not hiring the 1053 00:51:05,960 --> 00:51:08,480 Speaker 2: cheapest because we love New Zealander's not that I'm against it, 1054 00:51:08,960 --> 00:51:11,160 Speaker 2: I'm just wondering whether we're just this has got a 1055 00:51:11,200 --> 00:51:13,359 Speaker 2: bit more froth and bubble than substance to it. 1056 00:51:14,120 --> 00:51:16,520 Speaker 15: Well, as I've said, it includes a minimum weighting of 1057 00:51:16,560 --> 00:51:20,120 Speaker 15: ten percent for those economic benefits. Of course, cost will 1058 00:51:20,160 --> 00:51:22,200 Speaker 15: still come into it. You still want people to be 1059 00:51:22,200 --> 00:51:24,480 Speaker 15: able to get value for money. But it's about the 1060 00:51:24,520 --> 00:51:27,359 Speaker 15: fact that when you're choosing a contract, you don't just 1061 00:51:27,480 --> 00:51:30,160 Speaker 15: choose the cheapest one. You weigh a number of factors, 1062 00:51:30,239 --> 00:51:32,520 Speaker 15: and it's important for the growth of the New Zealand 1063 00:51:32,520 --> 00:51:35,600 Speaker 15: economy that these billions of dollars the government spends every 1064 00:51:35,680 --> 00:51:39,960 Speaker 15: year actually generating some jobs and some incomes and some 1065 00:51:40,040 --> 00:51:43,319 Speaker 15: benefit for New Zealand, not just lining the pockets of 1066 00:51:43,360 --> 00:51:44,040 Speaker 15: foreign firms. 1067 00:51:44,200 --> 00:51:46,440 Speaker 2: I was watching you yesterday with the debt cost in 1068 00:51:46,480 --> 00:51:49,640 Speaker 2: the House, and I'm looking at the Wellington lame O 1069 00:51:49,840 --> 00:51:52,840 Speaker 2: councils and I'm just is this a quagmire of an 1070 00:51:52,880 --> 00:51:56,799 Speaker 2: aptitude in this country? Do we have the wherewithal to 1071 00:51:56,960 --> 00:51:59,360 Speaker 2: actually pull our finger out and get our act together? 1072 00:52:00,320 --> 00:52:02,480 Speaker 15: I think this should be our wake up call moment. 1073 00:52:02,640 --> 00:52:05,719 Speaker 15: We went through six years of complacency and which we 1074 00:52:05,800 --> 00:52:08,360 Speaker 15: allowed the government to tell us every problem could be 1075 00:52:08,400 --> 00:52:10,799 Speaker 15: solved with more money being spent or the truth is, 1076 00:52:11,120 --> 00:52:12,120 Speaker 15: we've got to work for it. 1077 00:52:12,239 --> 00:52:13,200 Speaker 13: We've got to earn for it. 1078 00:52:13,680 --> 00:52:16,120 Speaker 15: And this is an economy that can grow in which 1079 00:52:16,160 --> 00:52:18,480 Speaker 15: we do have messes of growth potential. We've got to 1080 00:52:18,480 --> 00:52:19,920 Speaker 15: get a bit of red tape out of the way. 1081 00:52:19,920 --> 00:52:22,280 Speaker 15: We've got to be more sensible with our government policies. 1082 00:52:22,600 --> 00:52:24,880 Speaker 15: But we're a reform and government who's making all of 1083 00:52:24,880 --> 00:52:28,160 Speaker 15: that possible and I've got huge optimism for New Zealand. 1084 00:52:28,200 --> 00:52:30,080 Speaker 13: We've got what it takes. We've just been getting in 1085 00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:30,640 Speaker 13: our own way. 1086 00:52:30,760 --> 00:52:34,440 Speaker 2: But you gave them the opportunity in Wellington for infrastructure, 1087 00:52:34,560 --> 00:52:37,799 Speaker 2: give us a plan, and five of them, however many 1088 00:52:37,840 --> 00:52:41,000 Speaker 2: there are, couldn't even come up with a plan. 1089 00:52:41,920 --> 00:52:44,440 Speaker 15: Oh look, I'm not going to make any apologies for Wellington. 1090 00:52:44,480 --> 00:52:47,719 Speaker 15: I was so embarrassed by that episode. They couldn't even 1091 00:52:47,719 --> 00:52:51,040 Speaker 15: put their bickering aside for long enough to come together 1092 00:52:51,120 --> 00:52:53,440 Speaker 15: and say, hey, this is what our region needs. 1093 00:52:53,480 --> 00:52:55,960 Speaker 2: This is the NIOLA, that's what you're dealing with. 1094 00:52:57,560 --> 00:53:00,880 Speaker 15: Well that's Wellington on that episode. But do you know 1095 00:53:00,920 --> 00:53:03,440 Speaker 15: what I have faith and ratepayers who have the power 1096 00:53:03,520 --> 00:53:04,760 Speaker 15: of the vote. 1097 00:53:04,840 --> 00:53:05,959 Speaker 13: In come council time. 1098 00:53:06,040 --> 00:53:09,680 Speaker 15: Mike, I reckon, you'll be seeing some changes and well. 1099 00:53:08,960 --> 00:53:10,759 Speaker 2: You want to hope, So all right, go well appreciate it. 1100 00:53:10,840 --> 00:53:14,240 Speaker 2: Nicola Willis's Economic Growth minister. By the way, Justin Elbow 1101 00:53:14,360 --> 00:53:15,759 Speaker 2: is going to be embarrassed given in what he said 1102 00:53:15,800 --> 00:53:18,239 Speaker 2: poster his phone call. Memory came bouncing out from the 1103 00:53:18,239 --> 00:53:20,600 Speaker 2: phone call, so excited to talk with Donald Trump and 1104 00:53:21,160 --> 00:53:23,600 Speaker 2: exemptions and tariffs and all that sort of stuff. He's 1105 00:53:23,719 --> 00:53:26,360 Speaker 2: just announced there are as we predicted on this program. Indeed, 1106 00:53:26,400 --> 00:53:29,560 Speaker 2: there are no exemptions, so you'll have to take that 1107 00:53:29,600 --> 00:53:31,160 Speaker 2: to the election. Seven forty five. 1108 00:53:32,400 --> 00:53:36,920 Speaker 1: The Mike Hosking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered 1109 00:53:36,920 --> 00:53:37,880 Speaker 1: by News Talks at be. 1110 00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:41,880 Speaker 2: Mike is CEO of New Zealand manufacturing company established in 1111 00:53:42,120 --> 00:53:45,400 Speaker 2: nineteen eighty seven.

We're committed to authentic New Zealand 1113 00:53:48,800 --> 00:53:50,719 Speaker 2: made products and actively participate in the Buy a New 1114 00:53:50,800 --> 00:53:54,920 Speaker 2: Zealand campaign. However, we face significant challenges competing with Chinese imports, 1115 00:53:54,960 --> 00:53:58,800 Speaker 2: particularly when government procurement favors resellers who import from China 1116 00:53:59,239 --> 00:54:03,359 Speaker 2: and market themselves as local. Procurement practices make it increasingly 1117 00:54:03,400 --> 00:54:05,520 Speaker 2: difficult to compete. Well, we'll watch and wait. 1118 00:54:05,640 --> 00:54:05,839 Speaker 5: Mike. 1119 00:54:06,400 --> 00:54:08,279 Speaker 2: I get in the email first thing this morning, having 1120 00:54:08,320 --> 00:54:10,520 Speaker 2: battled my way through the road cones in Auckland.

If you get the chance to visit Vietnam, 1131 00:54:38,400 --> 00:54:43,200 Speaker 2: I highly recommend Mere Resort in Na Trang. I hope 1132 00:54:43,200 --> 00:54:45,759 Speaker 2: I've got that right. Beaz are a dollar thirty. They've 1133 00:54:45,800 --> 00:54:48,000 Speaker 2: got New Zealand wines as well. It'll be even better 1134 00:54:48,000 --> 00:54:49,560 Speaker 2: if they had New Zealand milk and cheese. So can 1135 00:54:49,640 --> 00:54:51,600 Speaker 2: only hope the trade deal in Vietnam pays off pus. 1136 00:54:51,640 --> 00:54:53,719 Speaker 2: The amount of investment going on here is putting New 1137 00:54:53,840 --> 00:54:56,600 Speaker 2: Zealand to shame.

Wanganui. Wan Anui is paying people to be 1147 00:55:18,160 --> 00:55:22,160 Speaker 2: part of a group. So you register your name and 1148 00:55:22,160 --> 00:55:24,120 Speaker 2: they've got a whole bunch of people three hundred so far. 1149 00:55:24,760 --> 00:55:27,880 Speaker 2: They will eventually pull forty random names out of the 1150 00:55:27,920 --> 00:55:31,360 Speaker 2: hat and you will be paid five hundred dollars to 1151 00:55:31,440 --> 00:55:34,880 Speaker 2: attend a series of four to five meetings to discuss 1152 00:55:34,920 --> 00:55:37,480 Speaker 2: swimming outdoors in the Wanganui area. 1153 00:55:37,640 --> 00:55:38,360 Speaker 18: It's not enough. 1154 00:55:38,960 --> 00:55:42,239 Speaker 2: No, well that's what I thought personally too. But this 1155 00:55:42,560 --> 00:55:45,360 Speaker 2: is that the seed of an idea. So swimming outdoors 1156 00:55:45,520 --> 00:55:47,279 Speaker 2: is clearly a thing in Wanganui, so they need to 1157 00:55:47,280 --> 00:55:49,759 Speaker 2: talk about it. But four or five meetings of up 1158 00:55:49,760 --> 00:55:52,600 Speaker 2: to three hours each three hours. 1159 00:55:52,800 --> 00:55:54,200 Speaker 18: First of all, it have to be at least five 1160 00:55:54,239 --> 00:55:55,360 Speaker 18: hundred dollars a meeting. 1161 00:55:56,040 --> 00:55:57,600 Speaker 2: First of all, to say the meeting is going to 1162 00:55:57,719 --> 00:56:02,040 Speaker 2: last three hours? Is your first ru paula up if 1163 00:56:02,080 --> 00:56:04,799 Speaker 2: you said, look tea and biscuits and twenty let's get 1164 00:56:04,800 --> 00:56:09,160 Speaker 2: this under the rape right, sell it upseller anyway, So 1165 00:56:09,160 --> 00:56:11,080 Speaker 2: it's going to cost thirty thousand dollars to the council 1166 00:56:11,160 --> 00:56:12,680 Speaker 2: to do it. I actually think there's a seed of 1167 00:56:12,680 --> 00:56:16,360 Speaker 2: a thought here. I'm not interested, but that's just me. 1168 00:56:16,840 --> 00:56:19,640 Speaker 2: But people might be, and if they are, the participation 1169 00:56:19,760 --> 00:56:22,680 Speaker 2: rate goes up. My only consume would be the people 1170 00:56:22,719 --> 00:56:24,719 Speaker 2: who are retired, who have more time on the hands, 1171 00:56:24,760 --> 00:56:27,080 Speaker 2: might dominate proceedings. Therefore, you might not get a good 1172 00:56:27,080 --> 00:56:28,040 Speaker 2: collection of views. 1173 00:56:28,360 --> 00:56:29,640 Speaker 5: So what are we talking about in the river? 1174 00:56:30,120 --> 00:56:32,319 Speaker 2: No pools and stuff?

We continue to work on that 1193 00:57:19,920 --> 00:57:24,720 Speaker 9: rugby more appealing and enjoyable, safer, but also providing opportunities 1194 00:57:24,760 --> 00:57:27,080 Speaker 9: for kids to continue his skill developments so that when 1195 00:57:27,440 --> 00:57:29,600 Speaker 9: they do reach those sort of late teenage years and 1196 00:57:29,640 --> 00:57:32,600 Speaker 9: adult year is that they've got all the skill sets 1197 00:57:32,640 --> 00:57:34,560 Speaker 9: and experiences in the game sense that they need to 1198 00:57:34,720 --> 00:57:37,960 Speaker 9: serve the ambition they've got, whether it's to play locally 1199 00:57:38,040 --> 00:57:40,640 Speaker 9: in the community or to issue a professional career. 1200 00:57:40,800 --> 00:57:43,240 Speaker 2: How literally does that play out with ten a side? 1201 00:57:43,240 --> 00:57:45,960 Speaker 2: What's literally the difference between ten and fifteen. 1202 00:57:48,040 --> 00:57:51,840 Speaker 9: What we know is that through modern sports research is 1203 00:57:51,880 --> 00:57:54,960 Speaker 9: that we want to try and give kids more optionities 1204 00:57:54,960 --> 00:57:56,800 Speaker 9: to get their hands on the ball, to be more involved, 1205 00:57:56,960 --> 00:57:58,960 Speaker 9: more engaged, and obviously the more numbers you have on 1206 00:57:58,960 --> 00:58:03,360 Speaker 9: the field, it means those opportunities or those manyful minutes 1207 00:58:03,400 --> 00:58:06,240 Speaker 9: to do they're adminished. And so when they're going through 1208 00:58:06,240 --> 00:58:10,960 Speaker 9: there sort of development stages, particularly as they're learning, we 1209 00:58:11,000 --> 00:58:13,160 Speaker 9: want to try and maximize those minutes. So hence why 1210 00:58:13,480 --> 00:58:17,920 Speaker 9: over the year groups it gradually grows from sort of 1211 00:58:17,960 --> 00:58:19,960 Speaker 9: seven a side through to the four fifth mannsotasion. 1212 00:58:20,400 --> 00:58:22,479 Speaker 2: Is this a proposal or is it a done deal 1213 00:58:22,680 --> 00:58:24,480 Speaker 2: and who you're proposing it to. 1214 00:58:26,200 --> 00:58:29,080 Speaker 9: We've been implementing changes in the space for the last 1215 00:58:29,120 --> 00:58:32,120 Speaker 9: five years, so we've done about five the age groups 1216 00:58:32,160 --> 00:58:34,600 Speaker 9: so far and the last of the changes are going 1217 00:58:34,600 --> 00:58:37,520 Speaker 9: through in twenty twenty six. The second tranch of work 1218 00:58:38,200 --> 00:58:40,400 Speaker 9: starts to earn us now with sort of consultation with 1219 00:58:41,160 --> 00:58:43,600 Speaker 9: clubs and schools and communities around what does it look 1220 00:58:43,680 --> 00:58:48,080 Speaker 9: like from sort of twelve thirteen, fourteen, and obviously in 1221 00:58:48,120 --> 00:58:50,640 Speaker 9: our system because we have junior rugby played up to 1222 00:58:50,720 --> 00:58:54,880 Speaker 9: under thirteen's and then it transitions to largely secondary school 1223 00:58:54,920 --> 00:58:58,040 Speaker 9: rugby in all places, but mostly then we obviously need 1224 00:58:58,080 --> 00:59:01,280 Speaker 9: to start engaging with clubs, schools around here network. So 1225 00:59:01,360 --> 00:59:04,880 Speaker 9: those proposals will be sharing those with our communities this 1226 00:59:05,000 --> 00:59:08,080 Speaker 9: year and keen to get their feedback on how that might. 1227 00:59:07,920 --> 00:59:08,480 Speaker 5: Be rolled up. 1228 00:59:08,520 --> 00:59:10,640 Speaker 2: Good stuff might go, well, appreciate it. Mike Histor New 1229 00:59:10,720 --> 00:59:13,720 Speaker 2: Zealand Rugby Eyes and the Hili under Simmons as a 1230 00:59:13,760 --> 00:59:17,160 Speaker 2: prop and he's right, as a prop. If you saw 1231 00:59:17,200 --> 00:59:19,360 Speaker 2: the size of me, you go, how did that happen? Anyway, 1232 00:59:19,400 --> 00:59:21,040 Speaker 2: it was it was a prop and what after the 1233 00:59:21,040 --> 00:59:24,640 Speaker 2: scrum collapsed because it always collapsed because we weren't very good. Literally, 1234 00:59:24,680 --> 00:59:26,960 Speaker 2: by the time you got up from the collapse scrum, 1235 00:59:27,360 --> 00:59:29,240 Speaker 2: the ball would be literally down the other end of 1236 00:59:29,280 --> 00:59:30,560 Speaker 2: the field, and all you do is run for the 1237 00:59:30,560 --> 00:59:32,880 Speaker 2: next scrum. And that's why I am not in all way, 1238 00:59:33,200 --> 00:59:36,400 Speaker 2: because it would have been close to believe me.

Maybe I'm just 1277 01:01:26,320 --> 01:01:28,840 Speaker 13: getting on a bit. That could be it, but I 1278 01:01:28,880 --> 01:01:31,440 Speaker 13: would tend to agree with you. The area I was 1279 01:01:31,480 --> 01:01:33,920 Speaker 13: in was pretty good, but a little bit over. You know, 1280 01:01:33,960 --> 01:01:35,440 Speaker 13: they're paying a few bit for their tickets. 1281 01:01:35,560 --> 01:01:37,400 Speaker 2: You've had a lot of money for tickets. And here's 1282 01:01:37,400 --> 01:01:39,960 Speaker 2: the other thing, because the last concert was the Morgan 1283 01:01:40,000 --> 01:01:44,240 Speaker 2: Wollen concert and the people were so drunk that they 1284 01:01:44,400 --> 01:01:47,880 Speaker 2: literally passed out and missed the concert. And I'm thinking 1285 01:01:47,880 --> 01:01:50,400 Speaker 2: to myself, you pay three hundred bucks to go stand 1286 01:01:50,400 --> 01:01:52,560 Speaker 2: there that you drink yourself silly, and you miss it. 1287 01:01:52,600 --> 01:01:53,360 Speaker 2: What's the point? 1288 01:01:53,480 --> 01:01:56,080 Speaker 13: Yeah, yeah, look, I tend to agree with you, Mike, 1289 01:01:56,560 --> 01:02:00,000 Speaker 13: I thought. But the music was amazing. His voice was brilliant. 1290 01:02:00,080 --> 01:02:02,840 Speaker 13: The musicians were really on. And I think it's his 1291 01:02:02,880 --> 01:02:05,120 Speaker 13: wife who plays with them. I'm not sure his wife. 1292 01:02:05,200 --> 01:02:07,040 Speaker 13: I think it is his wife. So I thought that 1293 01:02:07,080 --> 01:02:07,680 Speaker 13: was pretty cool. 1294 01:02:08,080 --> 01:02:10,720 Speaker 2: My Now, my assessment of it is he's if you 1295 01:02:10,720 --> 01:02:13,760 Speaker 2: go back to Luke Colmes, he's an officionado, like he's 1296 01:02:13,760 --> 01:02:16,640 Speaker 2: a true artist. Luke Colmes is very commercial, very successful, 1297 01:02:16,640 --> 01:02:18,520 Speaker 2: and God bless him for that. But if you want 1298 01:02:18,840 --> 01:02:23,000 Speaker 2: real talent, I mean top short, top drawer talent, stabletons 1299 01:02:23,000 --> 01:02:23,280 Speaker 2: you man. 1300 01:02:24,080 --> 01:02:26,360 Speaker 13: Yeah, well, it's the blues influence that gets me.

But anyway, the 1324 01:03:23,080 --> 01:03:26,360 Speaker 11: young lady that took out the top award is a 1325 01:03:26,480 --> 01:03:30,320 Speaker 11: world champion. You know, I don't know exactly what the 1326 01:03:30,400 --> 01:03:34,200 Speaker 11: title is, but what she does is she gets up trees, prunes. 1327 01:03:34,360 --> 01:03:38,040 Speaker 2: Oh, one of those.

She took out 1336 01:03:55,040 --> 01:03:57,480 Speaker 11: the top award, and you know, not normally in a 1337 01:03:57,520 --> 01:03:58,880 Speaker 11: sport like that, it wouldn't get recognized. 1338 01:03:58,880 --> 01:04:00,400 Speaker 2: That was great. Did you want to do that as 1339 01:04:00,400 --> 01:04:00,880 Speaker 2: well yourself? 1340 01:04:00,960 --> 01:04:01,120 Speaker 5: Mark? 1341 01:04:01,200 --> 01:04:02,120 Speaker 2: Or were you a bit busy that? 1342 01:04:03,280 --> 01:04:05,120 Speaker 11: I don't know if they had any ropes strong enough 1343 01:04:05,160 --> 01:04:05,640 Speaker 11: to hold. 1344 01:04:05,480 --> 01:04:07,920 Speaker 5: Me, Jenny? 1345 01:04:08,080 --> 01:04:10,160 Speaker 2: Now, did you have you sat on that? Am I 1346 01:04:10,200 --> 01:04:12,560 Speaker 2: correct and saying I read and featured on the program earlier? 1347 01:04:12,600 --> 01:04:16,320 Speaker 2: There's the piece in the spinoff by a woman who 1348 01:04:16,400 --> 01:04:19,760 Speaker 2: had sat claiming to have for the whole eighty hours 1349 01:04:19,800 --> 01:04:23,240 Speaker 2: of of submissions on the Treaty Principles bill. And have 1350 01:04:23,360 --> 01:04:24,880 Speaker 2: you sat through the whole eighty hours? Have you been 1351 01:04:24,920 --> 01:04:25,800 Speaker 2: on that committee and done that? 1352 01:04:26,320 --> 01:04:26,360 Speaker 21: No? 1353 01:04:26,680 --> 01:04:27,600 Speaker 13: Not the whole eighty hour. 1354 01:04:27,600 --> 01:04:29,440 Speaker 2: It's no how many hours you reckon Because while I 1355 01:04:29,480 --> 01:04:31,720 Speaker 2: got out of her article, which I thought was very instructive, 1356 01:04:32,320 --> 01:04:34,440 Speaker 2: was essentially what we've learnt out of this is you've 1357 01:04:34,440 --> 01:04:35,960 Speaker 2: got a group of people who think it's great and 1358 01:04:36,040 --> 01:04:38,400 Speaker 2: a group of people who don't. Many of them are 1359 01:04:38,520 --> 01:04:42,560 Speaker 2: very articulate, very eloquent, very studied and educated, but they 1360 01:04:42,640 --> 01:04:44,320 Speaker 2: still disagree with each other. Is that fair? 1361 01:04:45,000 --> 01:04:46,960 Speaker 13: I would agree, Yeah, I would agree. I don't think 1362 01:04:47,000 --> 01:04:48,960 Speaker 13: we achieved a heck of a lot. I think there 1363 01:04:48,960 --> 01:04:51,880 Speaker 13: were some great submissions that made really clear points, but 1364 01:04:51,960 --> 01:04:54,840 Speaker 13: I don't think it really got us any further together 1365 01:04:55,040 --> 01:04:56,000 Speaker 13: or closer as a nation. 1366 01:04:56,360 --> 01:04:58,280 Speaker 2: But see what and that brings me to you, Mark, 1367 01:04:58,560 --> 01:05:01,120 Speaker 2: because it's your party that's top and seemore going ahead 1368 01:05:01,160 --> 01:05:03,040 Speaker 2: with us. All these argued all along is we don't 1369 01:05:03,040 --> 01:05:05,640 Speaker 2: have a definition for the treaty in law, and we should. 1370 01:05:05,720 --> 01:05:09,120 Speaker 2: And what this process has proved is that is true. Therefore, 1371 01:05:09,120 --> 01:05:10,480 Speaker 2: why wouldn't we want to move on with this and 1372 01:05:10,520 --> 01:05:11,520 Speaker 2: do something productive with it. 1373 01:05:12,160 --> 01:05:14,320 Speaker 11: Well, I just think that I really like seleic committee 1374 01:05:14,360 --> 01:05:16,959 Speaker 11: processes because it does give you know, it leaves people 1375 01:05:16,960 --> 01:05:18,720 Speaker 11: to engage with our democracy and they have a voice, 1376 01:05:18,760 --> 01:05:21,680 Speaker 11: and I think that's great. We're basically we've said, yep, 1377 01:05:22,400 --> 01:05:24,840 Speaker 11: we just think that's a blunt tool and there's still 1378 01:05:24,880 --> 01:05:25,440 Speaker 11: work to be done. 1379 01:05:25,520 --> 01:05:28,160 Speaker 2: We just think for one hundred and fifty years and 1380 01:05:28,520 --> 01:05:31,640 Speaker 2: there's the outworking of one hundred and fifty years of 1381 01:05:31,640 --> 01:05:33,880 Speaker 2: disagreements in front of it Select Committee. No one agrees, 1382 01:05:33,920 --> 01:05:36,840 Speaker 2: even the most expert of experts does not agree. Therefore, 1383 01:05:36,840 --> 01:05:38,640 Speaker 2: we need to sharpen it up and shape it up 1384 01:05:38,640 --> 01:05:39,400 Speaker 2: and do something, don't we. 1385 01:05:40,560 --> 01:05:43,440 Speaker 11: Yeah, and I think Paul Goldsmith is motivated to do 1386 01:05:43,600 --> 01:05:45,520 Speaker 11: work on that. But we just like you said, and 1387 01:05:46,240 --> 01:05:47,880 Speaker 11: we just felt this was a very blunt tool in 1388 01:05:48,000 --> 01:05:50,560 Speaker 11: terms of the way to achieve that. So there will 1389 01:05:50,640 --> 01:05:52,200 Speaker 11: be work going on. It just won't be through the 1390 01:05:52,520 --> 01:05:53,440 Speaker 11: Treaties Principle bill. 1391 01:05:53,480 --> 01:05:54,080 Speaker 2: It's all all right. 1392 01:05:54,760 --> 01:05:56,760 Speaker 13: The point the point would be, what's the point of 1393 01:05:56,880 --> 01:05:58,760 Speaker 13: eighty hours if that's not going any further? And I 1394 01:05:58,800 --> 01:06:01,680 Speaker 13: think that's the problem. Was a waste of resources and time. 1395 01:06:01,920 --> 01:06:04,200 Speaker 2: Well, we can also say that about it. My broader 1396 01:06:04,240 --> 01:06:06,960 Speaker 2: point is that's the that's all select committees, isn't it, 1397 01:06:06,960 --> 01:06:08,760 Speaker 2: Because you're aways going to find people who hate on something, 1398 01:06:08,880 --> 01:06:09,840 Speaker 2: people who like something, and. 1399 01:06:09,840 --> 01:06:13,600 Speaker 13: Then at least but the law changes, something comes out 1400 01:06:13,680 --> 01:06:15,600 Speaker 13: at the end of it. Is the only one I've 1401 01:06:15,640 --> 01:06:18,040 Speaker 13: said on either for all of that time, and nothing happens, 1402 01:06:18,080 --> 01:06:19,280 Speaker 13: stops in the water. 1403 01:06:19,720 --> 01:06:22,160 Speaker 11: Well, I think that, I mean labour took similar bill 1404 01:06:22,200 --> 01:06:24,600 Speaker 11: through themselves when they're in Parliament that got killed off 1405 01:06:24,600 --> 01:06:24,920 Speaker 11: as well. 1406 01:06:25,000 --> 01:06:27,520 Speaker 2: So but I think that you name it. 1407 01:06:28,920 --> 01:06:30,640 Speaker 11: It was a treaty. It was a treaty principals bill 1408 01:06:30,640 --> 01:06:33,440 Speaker 11: that Labor brought into the House as well through the process. 1409 01:06:34,920 --> 01:06:35,200 Speaker 15: Making it. 1410 01:06:36,200 --> 01:06:38,800 Speaker 2: There can check your history negotiation. 1411 01:06:38,880 --> 01:06:40,520 Speaker 11: You don't even know this. You don't even know that 1412 01:06:42,520 --> 01:06:44,360 Speaker 11: treaty negotiated. 1413 01:06:46,000 --> 01:06:46,720 Speaker 13: On treaty. 1414 01:06:48,400 --> 01:06:50,200 Speaker 2: Brief break more in a Moment fourteen Past. 1415 01:06:51,640 --> 01:06:55,640 Speaker 1: The Mike Hosking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeart Radio 1416 01:06:56,480 --> 01:06:57,280 Speaker 1: News Talks. 1417 01:06:58,280 --> 01:07:01,560 Speaker 2: Six Thing Past Politics Wednesdays Anderson, Mark Mitchell two thousand 1418 01:07:01,600 --> 01:07:05,400 Speaker 2: and five, Mark, Yeah and five. 1419 01:07:05,320 --> 01:07:07,640 Speaker 13: Yeah, Mark, Now hot tap.

We're 1469 01:09:08,080 --> 01:09:10,600 Speaker 11: coming through a really tough period in terms of the 1470 01:09:10,680 --> 01:09:13,840 Speaker 11: economy and you know, but the reality of it is, 1471 01:09:14,000 --> 01:09:16,559 Speaker 11: might we're right were the pre election budget update under 1472 01:09:16,600 --> 01:09:19,600 Speaker 11: Labor was projected to be exactly where we are. We 1473 01:09:19,720 --> 01:09:21,880 Speaker 11: just got a really hard rule about growth. We're about 1474 01:09:21,880 --> 01:09:23,639 Speaker 11: the economy, We're about the return of jobs. 1475 01:09:24,479 --> 01:09:26,840 Speaker 2: Do you think give me your take the National Party 1476 01:09:26,920 --> 01:09:30,160 Speaker 2: take on this lunches thing, because I'm just desperate to 1477 01:09:30,240 --> 01:09:32,880 Speaker 2: move it on to something vastly more important. But it's 1478 01:09:33,040 --> 01:09:36,200 Speaker 2: we seem to be bogged down in what's turning out 1479 01:09:36,280 --> 01:09:38,960 Speaker 2: to be a political mind feel for you people. 1480 01:09:40,120 --> 01:09:42,360 Speaker 11: Look, yeah, and David is working flat out on that 1481 01:09:42,920 --> 01:09:44,880 Speaker 11: to make sure. Look from what I understand that the 1482 01:09:44,960 --> 01:09:50,160 Speaker 11: actual delivery of the lunches is as good, but obviously 1483 01:09:50,160 --> 01:09:52,760 Speaker 11: there's been some issues with it, and David's working flat 1484 01:09:52,800 --> 01:09:53,080 Speaker 11: out on that. 1485 01:09:53,520 --> 01:09:55,479 Speaker 13: And one of those companies is that liquidated now, as 1486 01:09:55,520 --> 01:09:55,800 Speaker 13: looks like. 1487 01:09:55,880 --> 01:09:57,920 Speaker 2: That does make any difference, though, Jinny, to be fair, 1488 01:09:58,040 --> 01:10:00,720 Speaker 2: if the company is in liquidation and the delivery keeps 1489 01:10:00,800 --> 01:10:02,960 Speaker 2: going as sad as it is for the company, what's 1490 01:10:02,960 --> 01:10:03,280 Speaker 2: it matter? 1491 01:10:03,600 --> 01:10:03,720 Speaker 5: Kid? 1492 01:10:03,760 --> 01:10:04,519 Speaker 2: Still get to the point. 1493 01:10:04,720 --> 01:10:06,400 Speaker 13: The point, the point I would make is all the 1494 01:10:06,439 --> 01:10:10,000 Speaker 13: schools I visited who ran their own program, and albeit 1495 01:10:10,000 --> 01:10:11,840 Speaker 13: at cost a bit more, they would employ two or 1496 01:10:11,880 --> 01:10:15,320 Speaker 13: three local people or local small businesses to provide those lunches, 1497 01:10:15,760 --> 01:10:18,120 Speaker 13: and so that keep the local economy going. It was 1498 01:10:18,160 --> 01:10:18,919 Speaker 13: better food. 1499 01:10:20,240 --> 01:10:22,840 Speaker 2: Jobs, of course, but that's what happens. If you keep 1500 01:10:23,320 --> 01:10:25,920 Speaker 2: spending money you don't have, which is what you were doing, 1501 01:10:26,320 --> 01:10:28,680 Speaker 2: employing people doing stuff, then that's always going to be 1502 01:10:28,760 --> 01:10:29,800 Speaker 2: the case. But we can't afford that. 1503 01:10:30,040 --> 01:10:30,599 Speaker 1: We have no mother. 1504 01:10:31,640 --> 01:10:33,559 Speaker 11: There was one hundred and thirty million dollars war. 1505 01:10:33,800 --> 01:10:37,680 Speaker 13: Under label, people get paid more. The economy grows, but not. 1506 01:10:37,680 --> 01:10:40,920 Speaker 2: When it's funded journey from debt. You can't. I can 1507 01:10:40,960 --> 01:10:42,720 Speaker 2: go borrow one hundred thousand dollars from the bank and 1508 01:10:42,800 --> 01:10:44,120 Speaker 2: give it to you. You can go and spread it 1509 01:10:44,160 --> 01:10:46,320 Speaker 2: all over the lower Hut today and you go look 1510 01:10:46,360 --> 01:10:47,840 Speaker 2: behind it. But I mean, I've still got to pay 1511 01:10:47,880 --> 01:10:48,320 Speaker 2: the debt back. 1512 01:10:49,000 --> 01:10:53,719 Speaker 11: They don't solve it. Might they don't understand their solution. 1513 01:10:54,080 --> 01:10:56,439 Speaker 13: Their solution to growing economy is to open it up 1514 01:10:56,439 --> 01:11:00,479 Speaker 13: for foreign investment. And we can't just continue cutting things and. 1515 01:11:01,280 --> 01:11:01,960 Speaker 2: For an investment. 1516 01:11:02,000 --> 01:11:03,800 Speaker 11: But we need good foreign investment here. 1517 01:11:04,120 --> 01:11:06,240 Speaker 13: I'm not saying I'm just saying we've got to be 1518 01:11:06,320 --> 01:11:07,080 Speaker 13: cautious about it. 1519 01:11:07,160 --> 01:11:10,160 Speaker 11: But your but your answer is Jenny, And whether it's 1520 01:11:10,240 --> 01:11:12,439 Speaker 11: your jen to is you just you guys just don't 1521 01:11:12,439 --> 01:11:13,920 Speaker 11: get it.

We've got a downward 1527 01:11:25,720 --> 01:11:29,000 Speaker 13: spiral of cutting, people losing their jobs, a lower tax take, 1528 01:11:29,080 --> 01:11:31,240 Speaker 13: and the economy keeps shrinking. We've got to break that 1529 01:11:31,360 --> 01:11:32,040 Speaker 13: downward cycle. 1530 01:11:32,479 --> 01:11:35,160 Speaker 11: Foreign investment.

They don't want America. They 1607 01:15:02,240 --> 01:15:04,160 Speaker 2: just want to get out of Denmark. Denmark gives them 1608 01:15:04,240 --> 01:15:06,360 Speaker 2: quite a lot of money every year, so I don't 1609 01:15:06,400 --> 01:15:08,440 Speaker 2: know what they're going to do without the money. Copenhagen 1610 01:15:08,479 --> 01:15:11,160 Speaker 2: provides an annual block grant of about half a billion. 1611 01:15:11,960 --> 01:15:14,519 Speaker 2: That's approximately twenty percent of Greenland's GDP and more than 1612 01:15:14,560 --> 01:15:16,479 Speaker 2: half of their public budget, so if they went independent, 1613 01:15:16,479 --> 01:15:18,320 Speaker 2: I don't know where they're getting that money from. But anyway, 1614 01:15:18,360 --> 01:15:20,680 Speaker 2: the party that's most likely to do the best or 1615 01:15:20,720 --> 01:15:24,120 Speaker 2: win is pro independence, and the party who's coming second 1616 01:15:24,479 --> 01:15:28,760 Speaker 2: is pro independent, so they're looking at referenda on independence, 1617 01:15:28,840 --> 01:15:31,120 Speaker 2: so not on America, but getting free of Denmark. So 1618 01:15:31,200 --> 01:15:34,640 Speaker 2: that's unfolding as we speak. All fifty six thousand of 1619 01:15:34,680 --> 01:15:36,760 Speaker 2: them are voted. I mean, can you believe it? Fifty 1620 01:15:36,760 --> 01:15:39,360 Speaker 2: six thousand people in Greenland and there are six main 1621 01:15:39,600 --> 01:15:42,559 Speaker 2: political parties, so lord knows how many minor political parties 1622 01:15:42,560 --> 01:15:44,800 Speaker 2: they are. Fifty six thousand people. I mean, everyone's in 1623 01:15:44,840 --> 01:15:45,679 Speaker 2: a political band. 1624 01:15:45,840 --> 01:15:47,720 Speaker 5: No. Trump thinks he can have it well. 1625 01:15:47,800 --> 01:15:49,960 Speaker 2: Exactly twenty two minutes away from. 1626 01:15:49,920 --> 01:15:54,240 Speaker 21: Nine International correspondence with ends and eye insurance, peace of 1627 01:15:54,320 --> 01:15:56,320 Speaker 21: mind for New Zealand business ELEMNA in. 1628 01:15:56,520 --> 01:15:59,240 Speaker 2: Our time, and the results from Greenland are coming through. 1629 01:15:59,240 --> 01:16:01,040 Speaker 2: It's not often you hear on the radio stand by. 1630 01:16:00,960 --> 01:16:02,720 Speaker 5: For that long. You reckon it'll take to count them. 1631 01:16:03,680 --> 01:16:06,400 Speaker 2: Wouldn't it be funny if it took like several days? 1632 01:16:06,520 --> 01:16:08,519 Speaker 2: I reckon, even I could get to fifty six thousand. 1633 01:16:08,560 --> 01:16:10,680 Speaker 2: I reckon you probably could. Now, Murray, how are you 1634 01:16:11,720 --> 01:16:12,200 Speaker 2: good morning? 1635 01:16:12,240 --> 01:16:12,360 Speaker 11: Mike? 1636 01:16:12,439 --> 01:16:13,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, pretty well? Thanks better than now. 1637 01:16:14,040 --> 01:16:17,040 Speaker 24: Steel manufacturers this morning early here, because of course there's 1638 01:16:17,120 --> 01:16:21,759 Speaker 24: no exemption to be granted Australian manufacturers from American tariffs 1639 01:16:21,800 --> 01:16:25,880 Speaker 24: on aluminium or aluminum and steel exports that we send 1640 01:16:25,920 --> 01:16:26,439 Speaker 24: to the US. 1641 01:16:26,600 --> 01:16:28,120 Speaker 2: And I wonder, and I said, so at the time, 1642 01:16:28,240 --> 01:16:29,920 Speaker 2: might have been to you, might have been to Steve. 1643 01:16:30,000 --> 01:16:32,120 Speaker 2: But I did say at the time Elbow looked way 1644 01:16:32,280 --> 01:16:35,799 Speaker 2: too exuberant when he bounded out of the double doors 1645 01:16:35,880 --> 01:16:37,920 Speaker 2: and talked to the world about his phone call with Trump, 1646 01:16:37,960 --> 01:16:41,080 Speaker 2: because he had clearly been sucked into believing that there 1647 01:16:41,240 --> 01:16:43,120 Speaker 2: was going to be the possibility of some exemption. 1648 01:16:43,920 --> 01:16:46,880 Speaker 5: Well, Trump did say, I would consider it. I will 1649 01:16:46,920 --> 01:16:47,560 Speaker 5: consider that. 1650 01:16:48,160 --> 01:16:50,800 Speaker 24: You know, Australia can make a special case, being you know, 1651 01:16:51,880 --> 01:16:55,840 Speaker 24: a nation that has a trade surplus with America that 1652 01:16:56,000 --> 01:16:58,640 Speaker 24: not too many countries have that. But this is a 1653 01:16:58,960 --> 01:17:02,760 Speaker 24: it's a big deal for Australia, for Australian steel manufacturers 1654 01:17:03,040 --> 01:17:06,080 Speaker 24: was worth four hundred million dollars steel exports to the 1655 01:17:06,200 --> 01:17:10,040 Speaker 24: US in twenty twenty three. China, of course, dwarfs that. 1656 01:17:11,560 --> 01:17:15,920 Speaker 24: The Chinese market in twenty twenty three for the three 1657 01:17:16,040 --> 01:17:20,800 Speaker 24: metals aluminium, iron and steel was worth eighty billion. So 1658 01:17:21,080 --> 01:17:22,719 Speaker 24: clearly there's a hell of a lot more at stake 1659 01:17:22,800 --> 01:17:26,880 Speaker 24: with China. But nonetheless, I mean it's I mean, we're 1660 01:17:26,920 --> 01:17:29,479 Speaker 24: supposed to be allies Washington and Canada were supposed to 1661 01:17:29,520 --> 01:17:30,000 Speaker 24: be allies. 1662 01:17:30,240 --> 01:17:32,160 Speaker 5: Donald Trump didn't even know what Orcust was. 1663 01:17:32,800 --> 01:17:36,080 Speaker 24: And Australia's signed up Mike for nearly four hundred billion 1664 01:17:36,120 --> 01:17:39,120 Speaker 24: dollars of submarines that may be obsolete before they're even built. 1665 01:17:39,720 --> 01:17:44,080 Speaker 24: And it's just looks crazy now. The Australian stock market yesterday, 1666 01:17:44,160 --> 01:17:47,120 Speaker 24: like market's all over the place. It dropped one and 1667 01:17:47,160 --> 01:17:48,840 Speaker 24: a half percent in less than an hour at the 1668 01:17:48,920 --> 01:17:52,040 Speaker 24: opening because of all this uncertainty. I guess now we 1669 01:17:52,200 --> 01:17:56,160 Speaker 24: know that these tariffs are going on, but you know, 1670 01:17:56,560 --> 01:17:58,600 Speaker 24: don't forget it took Malcolm Turble Well, this is what 1671 01:17:58,760 --> 01:18:02,240 Speaker 24: labor is saying over here. When Malcolm Turner was Prime Minister, 1672 01:18:02,400 --> 01:18:06,840 Speaker 24: took that administration a year to negotiate carve outs for 1673 01:18:07,000 --> 01:18:10,320 Speaker 24: Australian exports with the first Trump administration, So this is 1674 01:18:10,400 --> 01:18:13,080 Speaker 24: not a done deal. Australia will keep on working behind 1675 01:18:13,120 --> 01:18:14,960 Speaker 24: the seats try to get this exemption because it means 1676 01:18:15,000 --> 01:18:15,599 Speaker 24: a heck of a lot. 1677 01:18:15,960 --> 01:18:18,920 Speaker 2: Exactly these polls, by the way that we've seen the 1678 01:18:19,000 --> 01:18:21,599 Speaker 2: last couple of days is labor back with a sniff. 1679 01:18:21,600 --> 01:18:24,040 Speaker 2: I'm reading a very interesting piece a guy called Andrew Caswell, 1680 01:18:24,080 --> 01:18:28,519 Speaker 2: who was Morrison's media unit head and he's saying this 1681 01:18:28,720 --> 01:18:31,920 Speaker 2: hole the useless doesn't work anymore. You've got to offer 1682 01:18:32,000 --> 01:18:35,519 Speaker 2: them something to entice them across. Otherwise you had trouble. 1683 01:18:35,800 --> 01:18:37,640 Speaker 2: I think it's a not unfair assessment, isn't it. 1684 01:18:38,360 --> 01:18:39,680 Speaker 5: No, I agree with that. I agree with that. 1685 01:18:39,760 --> 01:18:41,720 Speaker 24: I mean it's not good and I'm going to build 1686 01:18:42,479 --> 01:18:47,240 Speaker 24: a nuclear power industry in Australia, but he's refusing to 1687 01:18:47,280 --> 01:18:49,280 Speaker 24: tell us how much is going to cost the timeline 1688 01:18:49,320 --> 01:18:52,920 Speaker 24: involved here. It's not good enough to say Albanese is weak. 1689 01:18:52,960 --> 01:18:55,840 Speaker 24: I mean, you know, yesterday Peter Dutton was saying Albanese 1690 01:18:55,960 --> 01:18:58,080 Speaker 24: is scared of Trump and as you know, he's too 1691 01:18:58,160 --> 01:18:59,840 Speaker 24: frightened to pick up the phone and argue the k 1692 01:19:00,600 --> 01:19:03,200 Speaker 24: And that's just silly. People want more than that. They 1693 01:19:03,280 --> 01:19:05,120 Speaker 24: want more than that. There's a heck of a lot 1694 01:19:05,160 --> 01:19:08,440 Speaker 24: more at stake. And yes, Carswell's right. I mean, Albanese 1695 01:19:08,479 --> 01:19:11,280 Speaker 24: has looked much much better in the last week or so, 1696 01:19:12,160 --> 01:19:15,320 Speaker 24: particularly given the response to the dreadful flooding we've had 1697 01:19:15,400 --> 01:19:18,120 Speaker 24: up in northern New South Wales and southeast Queensland. Peter 1698 01:19:18,240 --> 01:19:23,080 Speaker 24: Dutton's home city was under seeds from Cyclone Alfred Interestingly, 1699 01:19:23,200 --> 01:19:26,240 Speaker 24: it was changed from was supposed to be Anthony Cyclone 1700 01:19:26,240 --> 01:19:28,320 Speaker 24: Anthony and they changed the name, of course to Alfred 1701 01:19:28,640 --> 01:19:29,640 Speaker 24: because of Albanzi. 1702 01:19:30,160 --> 01:19:30,920 Speaker 5: Button nups on a. 1703 01:19:30,920 --> 01:19:33,040 Speaker 24: Plane and flies down to Sydney for a multi million 1704 01:19:33,120 --> 01:19:36,080 Speaker 24: dollar mansion and a big fundraiser for the Liberal Party. 1705 01:19:36,200 --> 01:19:38,680 Speaker 24: I mean that just looks terrible. Albanese is up there 1706 01:19:38,720 --> 01:19:41,240 Speaker 24: filling sandbags and whatnot and just looks like a leader. 1707 01:19:41,520 --> 01:19:44,240 Speaker 24: So yeah, I think Andrew Carswell is right. It's not 1708 01:19:44,360 --> 01:19:46,759 Speaker 24: a done deal by any means, and all the poles 1709 01:19:46,800 --> 01:19:48,840 Speaker 24: are still pointing Mike, as you well know. To a 1710 01:19:48,920 --> 01:19:51,439 Speaker 24: hung parliament just depends who's going to make up the 1711 01:19:51,560 --> 01:19:55,679 Speaker 24: government with the weird sort of Star Wars bar scene 1712 01:19:55,720 --> 01:19:57,680 Speaker 24: collective of we got down on Camper. 1713 01:19:59,520 --> 01:20:02,200 Speaker 2: When's the call? Because they've admitted it's got to be May. 1714 01:20:02,360 --> 01:20:04,880 Speaker 2: There's a budget coming and Alfred Mucktadahl up for them. 1715 01:20:04,960 --> 01:20:06,600 Speaker 2: When literally are they going to call it? 1716 01:20:06,680 --> 01:20:09,920 Speaker 24: Do you think, Well, it's going to be thirty three days, 1717 01:20:09,960 --> 01:20:13,120 Speaker 24: so work back from those first three saturdays in May. 1718 01:20:13,720 --> 01:20:15,720 Speaker 24: So I haven't got my calendar in front of me, 1719 01:20:15,840 --> 01:20:18,479 Speaker 24: but you know there's going to be a budget now, 1720 01:20:19,320 --> 01:20:21,960 Speaker 24: and I think labor won't be unhappy with that. I mean, 1721 01:20:22,000 --> 01:20:24,800 Speaker 24: if Albanezi could have just gone bang last weekend, let's 1722 01:20:24,840 --> 01:20:26,640 Speaker 24: go to the governor general, call the election, have a 1723 01:20:26,720 --> 01:20:29,040 Speaker 24: quick four week campaign and done and dusted. 1724 01:20:29,720 --> 01:20:32,400 Speaker 5: Now it's going to be more protracted, more drawn out. 1725 01:20:32,720 --> 01:20:34,960 Speaker 24: But Labor won't be frightened to put out a budget. 1726 01:20:35,240 --> 01:20:37,519 Speaker 24: They've got some decent things to talk about, you know, 1727 01:20:37,720 --> 01:20:40,479 Speaker 24: interest rates. Okay, it's only a quarter of one percent, 1728 01:20:40,960 --> 01:20:43,240 Speaker 24: but at least it's you know, the sentiment may be 1729 01:20:43,360 --> 01:20:46,880 Speaker 24: swinging a bit. It could point lots of goodies in 1730 01:20:47,040 --> 01:20:51,040 Speaker 24: the budget for low income earners, for age care and 1731 01:20:51,160 --> 01:20:53,920 Speaker 24: so on, you know, workers who are getting bugger or 1732 01:20:54,200 --> 01:20:57,200 Speaker 24: in the big scheme of things over here. So Labor 1733 01:20:57,240 --> 01:21:00,320 Speaker 24: won't be unhappy with that more. But there's more time 1734 01:21:00,360 --> 01:21:01,920 Speaker 24: for Peter Dutton to try and pick holes of what 1735 01:21:02,040 --> 01:21:04,560 Speaker 24: Labour's offering. And don't forget a lot of what the 1736 01:21:04,640 --> 01:21:07,400 Speaker 24: coalition's offer so far simply matches what Labour's put up. 1737 01:21:07,479 --> 01:21:09,960 Speaker 24: So yeah, look there's a wee way to go yet 1738 01:21:10,000 --> 01:21:12,600 Speaker 24: this election campaign. I mean, I love this stuff. A 1739 01:21:12,680 --> 01:21:13,880 Speaker 24: lot of people just glaze o. 1740 01:21:14,120 --> 01:21:14,400 Speaker 5: They just. 1741 01:21:15,960 --> 01:21:17,640 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, but they may want to wake up to 1742 01:21:17,720 --> 01:21:20,040 Speaker 2: it because funnily enough, These are the people who actually 1743 01:21:20,080 --> 01:21:22,360 Speaker 2: control the purse strings and the country and the decisions, 1744 01:21:22,400 --> 01:21:24,880 Speaker 2: and your life is as a direct result of that. 1745 01:21:25,080 --> 01:21:27,120 Speaker 2: So it sort of behooves you to pay attention, doesn't it? 1746 01:21:28,320 --> 01:21:29,920 Speaker 5: Absolutely right? Couldn't agree more. 1747 01:21:30,080 --> 01:21:32,360 Speaker 2: All right, mate, I'm going to appreciate you one. I'll 1748 01:21:32,360 --> 01:21:35,479 Speaker 2: see you Friday. All the best, Mike. Two and a week, 1749 01:21:35,640 --> 01:21:40,240 Speaker 2: Murray up for that. Two in a week.

Steve's in an operation today, 1752 01:21:46,160 --> 01:21:48,600 Speaker 2: so he'll be back on next week. We're taking like 1753 01:21:48,640 --> 01:21:57,479 Speaker 2: a military operation sixteen minutes away from nine asking Health 1754 01:21:57,560 --> 01:22:00,439 Speaker 2: New Zealand. This is the quest. I don't know who interview, 1755 01:22:00,479 --> 01:22:02,000 Speaker 2: but we're going to do somebody about it. But so, 1756 01:22:02,360 --> 01:22:05,640 Speaker 2: Health New Zealand awarded a two million dollar contract to 1757 01:22:05,720 --> 01:22:09,080 Speaker 2: a UK based firm linked to a guy called John Bennett, 1758 01:22:09,920 --> 01:22:13,799 Speaker 2: who is reported this morning as being an embattled senior manager. 1759 01:22:15,800 --> 01:22:18,720 Speaker 2: The reason he's embattled. The work, by the way, was 1760 01:22:18,760 --> 01:22:21,200 Speaker 2: to carry out work related to patient waiting lists, improving 1761 01:22:21,280 --> 01:22:24,320 Speaker 2: delivery of care and hospitals. He had co founded a 1762 01:22:24,400 --> 01:22:26,800 Speaker 2: company with a guy called Barry and another person back 1763 01:22:26,840 --> 01:22:30,200 Speaker 2: in twenty twelve. He'd resigned as director in twenty twenty, 1764 01:22:30,240 --> 01:22:32,240 Speaker 2: but he remainder of director with the two other companies 1765 01:22:32,320 --> 01:22:35,960 Speaker 2: with this called Barry Barry mel Holland.

He's been on secondment back to Health New Zealand, 1768 01:22:42,680 --> 01:22:46,559 Speaker 2: but was stood down by IC's ACC on Friday, subject 1769 01:22:46,600 --> 01:22:49,960 Speaker 2: to an investigation after a series of stories reported concerns 1770 01:22:49,960 --> 01:22:54,599 Speaker 2: about his conduct. Now their separate story. So as conduct 1771 01:22:54,720 --> 01:22:57,479 Speaker 2: is one story, the fact he's involved with the business 1772 01:22:57,560 --> 01:23:01,320 Speaker 2: is another story. The part that I'm interested didn't is 1773 01:23:01,400 --> 01:23:05,599 Speaker 2: the part where the government Health New Zealand claims they 1774 01:23:05,760 --> 01:23:11,040 Speaker 2: didn't advertise the contract because the company was the only 1775 01:23:11,280 --> 01:23:14,560 Speaker 2: known provider with the essential skills for the work so 1776 01:23:14,680 --> 01:23:17,519 Speaker 2: in the whole world, and what they wanted to do 1777 01:23:17,760 --> 01:23:20,559 Speaker 2: was quote carry out work related to patient waiting lists 1778 01:23:20,600 --> 01:23:22,760 Speaker 2: and improving the delivery of care to hospitals. There only 1779 01:23:22,840 --> 01:23:24,760 Speaker 2: one company in the whole world that can do that, 1780 01:23:25,960 --> 01:23:27,760 Speaker 2: and so they didn't need to advertise that. Now, are 1781 01:23:27,800 --> 01:23:30,120 Speaker 2: you serious? So we need to talk to someone about that. 1782 01:23:30,160 --> 01:23:32,600 Speaker 2: Tomorrow fourteen to two, The. 1783 01:23:32,720 --> 01:23:37,080 Speaker 1: Mike Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered by 1784 01:23:37,160 --> 01:23:37,879 Speaker 1: News Talks. 1785 01:23:37,680 --> 01:23:40,200 Speaker 2: Ad BE News Talks haid Be eleven away from Lening 1786 01:23:40,240 --> 01:23:42,000 Speaker 2: some questions for you.

No, Catman does 1790 01:23:50,000 --> 01:23:51,800 Speaker 2: are very well established New Zealand brand. I think it's 1791 01:23:51,840 --> 01:23:54,200 Speaker 2: fantastic they're sponsors. I think it's going to work out well. 1792 01:23:54,320 --> 01:23:56,160 Speaker 2: Someone was trying to moan yesterday about the fact that 1793 01:23:56,200 --> 01:23:58,400 Speaker 2: some of the uniforms will be made overseas. I mean, 1794 01:23:58,439 --> 01:24:00,839 Speaker 2: wake up call. Just pretty much everything in this country's 1795 01:24:00,880 --> 01:24:03,200 Speaker 2: made overseas. We don't make very much in this country 1796 01:24:03,240 --> 01:24:07,479 Speaker 2: anymore at all. It's a beautiful day in Washington. Springs 1797 01:24:07,640 --> 01:24:10,679 Speaker 2: very definitely arrived in Washington. It's a very It's a glorious, calm, 1798 01:24:10,800 --> 01:24:12,679 Speaker 2: sunny day. And I only know that because the President 1799 01:24:12,720 --> 01:24:14,680 Speaker 2: at the moment is selecting a tesla. As I told 1800 01:24:14,720 --> 01:24:16,200 Speaker 2: you about earlier on in the program. He's going to 1801 01:24:16,840 --> 01:24:18,479 Speaker 2: get a tesla from where's going to pay for it? 1802 01:24:18,479 --> 01:24:22,000 Speaker 2: Because he's feeling sorry for Elon. But my main question 1803 01:24:22,160 --> 01:24:25,559 Speaker 2: is Elon's turned up with this kid again, and we're 1804 01:24:25,640 --> 01:24:27,639 Speaker 2: just working out whether the kids should be old enough 1805 01:24:27,640 --> 01:24:30,880 Speaker 2: to go to school. There are maybe he's four, but 1806 01:24:31,200 --> 01:24:32,960 Speaker 2: he turns up with the same kid, and he's got 1807 01:24:33,040 --> 01:24:35,840 Speaker 2: thirteen at least thirteen. I heard the other day's possibility 1808 01:24:35,880 --> 01:24:38,280 Speaker 2: of fourteen, but he seems to turn up with the 1809 01:24:38,320 --> 01:24:40,000 Speaker 2: one child, so I don't know what's going on there, 1810 01:24:40,040 --> 01:24:42,840 Speaker 2: but nevertheless he's turned up with dad. The other question 1811 01:24:42,960 --> 01:24:45,519 Speaker 2: I have, and you'll accuse me of being superficial, and 1812 01:24:45,600 --> 01:24:49,040 Speaker 2: be that as it may. The cap that Musk wears, 1813 01:24:49,520 --> 01:24:52,160 Speaker 2: which is the special black make America Great Again cap, 1814 01:24:52,439 --> 01:24:53,880 Speaker 2: of all the caps you can get in the Make 1815 01:24:53,920 --> 01:24:57,639 Speaker 2: America Great Again range, and there's quite a few, because 1816 01:24:57,640 --> 01:24:58,840 Speaker 2: I was looking them up the other day and I 1817 01:24:58,880 --> 01:25:01,479 Speaker 2: want to buy one. Jack Tame brought me one back 1818 01:25:01,720 --> 01:25:04,559 Speaker 2: from Trump one point zero, but I want a Trump 1819 01:25:04,560 --> 01:25:06,360 Speaker 2: two point oh one. Anyway, I was looking for Elon's 1820 01:25:06,400 --> 01:25:08,320 Speaker 2: one because it's black on black and it's the coolest 1821 01:25:08,360 --> 01:25:12,040 Speaker 2: of the caps. He had it made specially, and yet 1822 01:25:12,080 --> 01:25:15,880 Speaker 2: it doesn't fit his head. So I'm thinking, why would 1823 01:25:15,920 --> 01:25:18,439 Speaker 2: you bespoke a hat that doesn't even fit? And Glenn 1824 01:25:18,640 --> 01:25:22,800 Speaker 2: quite rightly pointed out he makes cars that way. Nothing 1825 01:25:22,840 --> 01:25:25,840 Speaker 2: fits in a tesla either, so good point. One more 1826 01:25:25,920 --> 01:25:27,920 Speaker 2: question from me while I'm on the question in front, 1827 01:25:28,640 --> 01:25:31,360 Speaker 2: there seems to be some coverage of jd Vance's cousin 1828 01:25:31,960 --> 01:25:35,439 Speaker 2: who's criticizing jd Vance on some of the stuff he's doing. 1829 01:25:36,120 --> 01:25:39,400 Speaker 2: Why is a cousin news? Answer me this? And if 1830 01:25:39,439 --> 01:25:42,880 Speaker 2: a cousin is news, because every person in public life 1831 01:25:43,120 --> 01:25:46,320 Speaker 2: will have somebody who's a detractor within the wider family. 1832 01:25:46,920 --> 01:25:49,920 Speaker 2: If it was jd Vance's dad or wife or son 1833 01:25:50,040 --> 01:25:52,559 Speaker 2: or daughter, does that make it more relevant or less 1834 01:25:52,560 --> 01:25:54,800 Speaker 2: relevant than a cousin? If you're going to quote a 1835 01:25:54,880 --> 01:25:57,640 Speaker 2: cousin as though a cousin's view, and you've seen it 1836 01:25:57,680 --> 01:26:00,160 Speaker 2: with the Markle family as well, they go to any 1837 01:26:00,240 --> 01:26:03,320 Speaker 2: number of cousins to talk about Megan, Why is a 1838 01:26:03,400 --> 01:26:05,960 Speaker 2: cousin and their view remotely important? And if a cousin's 1839 01:26:06,040 --> 01:26:08,160 Speaker 2: view is important, how many cousins down the track do 1840 01:26:08,200 --> 01:26:10,840 Speaker 2: you go before it becomes unimportant? Or do you go 1841 01:26:10,960 --> 01:26:13,200 Speaker 2: back to school friends, people he once met at a party. 1842 01:26:13,560 --> 01:26:16,400 Speaker 2: Where is the line drawn? That's my question? Dine Away from. 1843 01:26:16,360 --> 01:26:21,800 Speaker 1: Nine the Mike asking breakfast with Bailey's real estate news togs, 1844 01:26:21,840 --> 01:26:22,160 Speaker 1: they'd be. 1845 01:26:22,280 --> 01:26:24,639 Speaker 2: Get's away from nine. Great story floating about this morning 1846 01:26:24,720 --> 01:26:28,320 Speaker 2: on our power, renewables, the whole renewables debate, and why 1847 01:26:28,400 --> 01:26:30,240 Speaker 2: we're going into another winter, touch and go on, whether 1848 01:26:30,280 --> 01:26:33,080 Speaker 2: we've got enough supply the New Zealand solar power. The 1849 01:26:33,240 --> 01:26:35,120 Speaker 2: amount of production in this country has hit a record. 1850 01:26:35,439 --> 01:26:38,439 Speaker 2: There's never been more solar power production in this country 1851 01:26:38,520 --> 01:26:41,640 Speaker 2: is incredible. What percentage of overall generation do you think 1852 01:26:41,720 --> 01:26:46,719 Speaker 2: solar accounts for the answer is one point three percent. 1853 01:26:47,800 --> 01:26:50,120 Speaker 2: So for all of the you know, there's room to grow. 1854 01:26:50,240 --> 01:26:52,439 Speaker 2: That's the good business story. I suppose peak of one 1855 01:26:52,479 --> 01:26:56,160 Speaker 2: hundred and nineteen megawatts, which is enough to power one 1856 01:26:56,640 --> 01:26:59,160 Speaker 2: six hundred and twenty households. I'm pretty sure there's more 1857 01:26:59,200 --> 01:27:01,800 Speaker 2: households in this than that. So for all of the 1858 01:27:01,960 --> 01:27:05,439 Speaker 2: so called you know, transformation and renewables, we've got a 1859 01:27:05,640 --> 01:27:08,720 Speaker 2: hell of a long way to go. Five away from nine. 1860 01:27:09,200 --> 01:27:12,920 Speaker 1: Trending now with the Chemist Warehouse, the home of big 1861 01:27:13,040 --> 01:27:13,880 Speaker 1: brand ftamins. 1862 01:27:14,120 --> 01:27:15,840 Speaker 2: Right as I was mentioning a moment ago, they're in 1863 01:27:15,920 --> 01:27:18,280 Speaker 2: the courtyard. They're talking about Teessle's this is Trump and 1864 01:27:18,320 --> 01:27:21,479 Speaker 2: Elon and he's obviously Trump has got to his mates, 1865 01:27:21,520 --> 01:27:25,840 Speaker 2: because Hennity is in Fox, ais is hennity? By the way, 1866 01:27:25,840 --> 01:27:28,000 Speaker 2: I've spoken poorly of EV's two hundred and seventy four 1867 01:27:28,040 --> 01:27:31,240 Speaker 2: times during the last four years on Biden. Maybe it's 1868 01:27:31,400 --> 01:27:34,320 Speaker 2: just a gesture on my part, and I like that. 1869 01:27:34,479 --> 01:27:37,519 Speaker 2: I like new technology. But it's just a way of saying, 1870 01:27:37,720 --> 01:27:39,240 Speaker 2: you know, look what they're doing. 1871 01:27:39,320 --> 01:27:39,840 Speaker 5: To this guy. 1872 01:27:40,479 --> 01:27:47,000 Speaker 2: What a sellout? What soft cock sellout? Now Trump's out. 1873 01:27:47,479 --> 01:27:49,080 Speaker 2: He's looking at the Teesla's too. 1874 01:27:49,520 --> 01:27:50,240 Speaker 5: What is this one? 1875 01:27:51,360 --> 01:27:53,920 Speaker 2: I've a still bot away, by the way, So I 1876 01:27:54,000 --> 01:27:56,280 Speaker 2: have a lot of information that Lindy's approached it. 1877 01:27:56,400 --> 01:27:58,760 Speaker 6: Yet I want to make a good deal here, you know, 1878 01:27:58,920 --> 01:27:59,680 Speaker 6: I do notice this. 1879 01:28:00,320 --> 01:28:04,400 Speaker 20: They have one which is thirty five thousand dollars, which 1880 01:28:04,479 --> 01:28:05,080 Speaker 20: is pretty low. 1881 01:28:05,560 --> 01:28:06,519 Speaker 1: What is that all about? 1882 01:28:07,960 --> 01:28:09,880 Speaker 2: He's never seen the thirty five thousand dollars car in 1883 01:28:09,920 --> 01:28:13,439 Speaker 2: his life. Of course, you would never clue Elon as 1884 01:28:13,479 --> 01:28:16,240 Speaker 2: you heard. It's a motal Why is with him? 1885 01:28:16,479 --> 01:28:16,960 Speaker 21: Means a lot? 1886 01:28:17,680 --> 01:28:20,479 Speaker 9: And also thank everyone out there who is supporting Tesla. 1887 01:28:21,200 --> 01:28:25,360 Speaker 12: It's really terrible that there's so much violence being created 1888 01:28:25,400 --> 01:28:26,439 Speaker 12: against people. 1889 01:28:26,280 --> 01:28:29,400 Speaker 7: Like Tesla, Tesla supporters, Tesla owners, Tesla stores. 1890 01:28:29,760 --> 01:28:30,720 Speaker 9: These are innocent people. 1891 01:28:30,720 --> 01:28:32,320 Speaker 5: Who have done nothing wrong on that. 1892 01:28:32,439 --> 01:28:35,160 Speaker 2: He's right one hundred percent. He's right on that. Trump 1893 01:28:35,240 --> 01:28:37,840 Speaker 2: and the end is borught an s But the plaid 1894 01:28:37,920 --> 01:28:41,360 Speaker 2: version the plan if you've never been in one, he's 1895 01:28:41,360 --> 01:28:43,640 Speaker 2: brought the s play mind. Well, so Trump hasn't even 1896 01:28:43,680 --> 01:28:45,519 Speaker 2: made up his mind. Well, how can you run in there? 1897 01:28:45,600 --> 01:28:47,400 Speaker 18: Ry, He's got the full range there on the White 1898 01:28:47,439 --> 01:28:49,920 Speaker 18: House driveway, just so he can pack which one he likes. 1899 01:28:50,080 --> 01:28:51,640 Speaker 2: Well, he needs a cyber truck. I'd say go with 1900 01:28:51,720 --> 01:28:53,800 Speaker 2: the cyber truck because it's the ugliest thing in the 1901 01:28:53,920 --> 01:28:55,800 Speaker 2: history of cars. But at least you know you're coming. 1902 01:28:55,840 --> 01:28:58,360 Speaker 2: It's a massive thing. So Hannity bought the s plaid 1903 01:29:00,240 --> 01:29:02,920 Speaker 2: in the US, the s plants, that's the super powerful one. 1904 01:29:02,960 --> 01:29:05,000 Speaker 2: It goes zero to one hundred and just some ridiculous number. 1905 01:29:05,000 --> 01:29:06,280 Speaker 2: But you're going to warm the battery up, and the 1906 01:29:06,320 --> 01:29:08,920 Speaker 2: batteries very rarely that warm, and it sort of doesn't work. 1907 01:29:09,000 --> 01:29:11,320 Speaker 2: But well it didn't work the time I was in one. Anyway, 1908 01:29:12,000 --> 01:29:15,280 Speaker 2: That is us for today. Back tomorrow morning from six 1909 01:29:15,880 --> 01:29:17,519 Speaker 2: as always Happy Days. 1910 01:29:21,040 --> 01:29:23,920 Speaker 1: For more from the Mic asking Breakfast listen live to 1911 01:29:24,040 --> 01:29:27,080 Speaker 1: news talks.
