00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:02,200
Speaker 2: dissolved by a court after being blocked from forming a

18
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:05,399
Speaker 2: government despite winning its election in twenty twenty three. The

19
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:08,600
Speaker 2: party had proposed making changes to a law which prevents

20
00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:11,480
Speaker 2: people from defaming Thailand's Royal Family.

21
00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:17,240
Speaker 3: Party leader Peter Linda Lanroth and ten others will likely

00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:21,360
Speaker 3: be banned from politics for a decade in Thailand, they

23
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:24,520
Speaker 3: won't be able to form other political parties in future.

24
00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 2: Don't mess with the queen. Most MPs who are in

25
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 2: the party can keep their seats, but only if they

26
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 2: move to a new party and they've got sixty days

27
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 2: to do it. Back here, energy costs are in the

28
00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:38,840
Speaker 2: spotlight again as another paper mill looks to shut its doors.

29

30
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:47,440
Speaker 2: proposal to close, noting rising energy prices as one of

31
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:51,480
Speaker 2: several issues impacting revenue. It comes to stays after Windstone

32
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:54,000
Speaker 2: set its pulp and timber mills near O'kuni are looking

33
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:57,040
Speaker 2: to close also due to high power costs. Plus you

34
00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:00,320
Speaker 2: add to that methodex in Taranaki. The two U Union

35
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 2: negotiations specialist Joe Gallagher says prices need to be rained in.

36
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 4: We have to look at wastes.

37
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:08,399
Speaker 5: Have been sure that we have a strong manufacturing based

38
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:10,520
Speaker 5: in New Zealand because a lot of these mills and

39
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:13,560
Speaker 5: companies are critical to a rural New Zealand.

40
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,480
Speaker 1: The news you need this morning and the in depth

41
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 1: analysis early edition with Ryan Bridge and Swis City New

42
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 1: Zealand's furniture beds and a planing store.

43
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:24,840
Speaker 2: News Talk said, be yeah, there are a lot of

44
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:26,920
Speaker 2: jobs on the line. And it's interesting to hear the

45
00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:31,120
Speaker 2: Air two union say that prices, energy prices, electricity prices,

46
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:34,639
Speaker 2: gas prices need to come down. That's the same union

47
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:38,960
Speaker 2: that endorsed the just transition of just Sindra a Dern's era.

48
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:43,440
Speaker 2: I wonder how they feel about that now. Also this morning,

49
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:47,520
Speaker 2: Adrian Or have been thinking about him. Yesterday afternoon I

50
00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:51,320
Speaker 2: noticed that brad Olsen had come out and said because

51
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 2: the job start we got was largely in line with

52
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 2: what the Reserve Bank had predicted, and based on those predictions,

53
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:01,079
Speaker 2: the Reserve Bank said we don't need to cut rates

54
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:05,640
Speaker 2: until next year. If Adriane Or and the committee that

55
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:08,839
Speaker 2: goes away and decides these things, if they come back

56
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:12,079
Speaker 2: and say, actually we do need to cut now, then

57
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:15,480
Speaker 2: what the hell was the predictions and what were they

58
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:18,760
Speaker 2: based on in the first place. And brad Olsen says

59
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:21,800
Speaker 2: heads should have to roll if that situation played out.

60
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,480
Speaker 2: I don't know. I'm starting to feel No, you don't

61
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:26,600
Speaker 2: feel do you feel sorry for Adrian Or? I mean,

62
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 2: it's an impossible situation. Isn't it. Because the counterfactual as well,

63
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:36,480
Speaker 2: if he lowers interest rates and then inflation goes up again,

64
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:39,640
Speaker 2: creeps up again, that non tradable inflation that's sticky. The

65
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:45,680
Speaker 2: domestic inflation doesn't seem to be moving much. If that happened,

66
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 2: imagine what we'd say then, you know, we'd be hanging it.

67
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 2: I shouldn't say that, hanging in the streets. We would

68
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 2: be very very angry, wouldn't we because it would just

69
00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 2: prolong the whole We'd have to start again, you know,

70
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:01,600
Speaker 2: and then psychological you'd have to start again for those

71
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:04,600
Speaker 2: businesses that are laying people off, and you know when

72
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:07,280
Speaker 2: people are going to start spending again. All of that stuff.

73
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 2: The Employees and Manufacturers Association. By the way, Allan McDonald's

74
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:14,440

75
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,880
Speaker 2: who's calling and how many of his members are calling

76
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:21,560
Speaker 2: for advice on how to how to basically how to

77
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:25,279
Speaker 2: get rid of people restructuring, and also the ninety day

78
00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:28,520
Speaker 2: trial periods that for you just after six coming up next,

80
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 2: kids are getting their required recommended nutrients every day.

81
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:43,880
Speaker 1: Get ahead of the headlines. Ryan Bridge you for twenty

82

Speaker 2: point thirty. Will bring you that race live. Also inside

91
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:13,640
Speaker 2: the next half our, Ginny Anderson on why Mark Mitchell

92
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 2: won't let her visit a police station right now though

93
00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:20,559
Speaker 2: it's a more important business. Soaring food prices are taking

94
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:24,280
Speaker 2: a toll on our kids. This is published a new

95
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:27,400
Speaker 2: report published this morning. It's published in the Journal of

96
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 2: Royal Society of New Zealand by the University of Auckland.

97
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 2: It found food basket prices increased by thirty five percent

98
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:39,600
Speaker 2: in the six years from twenty eighteen to December of

99
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:44,080
Speaker 2: last year. This is for healthy food for families. It

100
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:46,840
Speaker 2: means it's virtually impossible for a family on a benefit

101
00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:50,440
Speaker 2: to afford healthy food, and with more than one third

102
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:54,520
Speaker 2: of kids being overweight or obese, it's even more reasons

103
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 2: to be concerned. The Health Coalition ALTAEDO are Food Policy

104
00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:02,200
Speaker 2: Expert Advisory Group cod CH heare Sally mackay is with us.

105
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:07,320
Speaker 2: She's a nutritionist. Sally. Good morning, Sally. Can you hear me?

106
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:13,440
Speaker 2: I think we might have to try and get us Sally?

107
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 4: Are you there? Yes?

108
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:18,840
Speaker 2: I am there. We go tell me how concerning? Is

109
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:21,280
Speaker 2: this one of the interesting things I read in the report?

110
00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:25,120
Speaker 2: Just five point four percent of kids aged two to

111
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:30,440
Speaker 2: fourteen years eat the recommended veggies per day.

112
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:35,520
Speaker 6: Yes, that is very concerning. And the recommendations for vegetables

113
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 6: did actually change in the last few years, and the

114
00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:41,159
Speaker 6: recommendation is now a little bit higher than it was,

115
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 6: which is another reason why that figure does look so low.

116
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:50,800
Speaker 6: But even before the recommendations changed, many of our children

117
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:52,760
Speaker 6: were not getting enough vegetables every day.

118
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,640
Speaker 2: Are they too high the recommendations? I was having a

119
00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:58,599
Speaker 2: look at it. I think it's if you're twelve to thirteen,

120
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:02,200
Speaker 2: it's five vs gees per day and two pieces of

121
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:05,599
Speaker 2: fruit per day. I mean, is that a bit much?

122
00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:08,200
Speaker 2: I mean, if ninety five percent of kids aren't doing it.

123
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:13,200
Speaker 6: Well. The recommendations, I guess are something to aim for,

124
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 6: and even if you can get close to those recommendations

125
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,840
Speaker 6: then that would be better for your health. With vegetables,

126
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:23,840
Speaker 6: the more you eat the better. So yeah, if you're

127
00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 6: getting close, then that's not so bad. And we do

128
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:29,400
Speaker 6: do a little bit better on the fruit as well,

129
00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:31,760
Speaker 6: but still about half of our children don't get enough

130
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:35,360
Speaker 6: fruit and those recommendations are quite manageable at only two

131
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 6: pieces per day.

132
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:41,360
Speaker 2: What is the impact of the last few years on

133
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:46,160
Speaker 2: low income families when it comes to healthy food.

134
00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 6: Well, we've seen that there's a lot more food parcels

135
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,520
Speaker 6: that have been given out and the latest data on

136
00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:58,480
Speaker 6: food in security in New Zealand shows that one in

137
00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:03,120
Speaker 6: five children household they often or sometimes run out of food.

138
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:06,920
Speaker 6: So obviously this impacts those children that don't get enough

139
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:10,280
Speaker 6: to eat, and in particular it impacts their learning when

140
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:12,760
Speaker 6: they're at school, and that's what we're really concerned about.

141
00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:16,240
Speaker 2: And this is basically this research is basically a new

142
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:19,239
Speaker 2: tool to measure the cost of feeding kids.

143
00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:23,760
Speaker 6: Well, yes, so we have that New Zealand has a

144
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:28,320
Speaker 6: food price index and they publish the prices of about

145
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 6: over one hundred foods every month, and so this way

146
00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 6: we can keep track of what it costs to feed

147
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:38,800
Speaker 6: a family very easily with this tool that has been developed.

148
00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:42,199
Speaker 2: The sad thing here is those families who are on benefits.

149
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, it is hard when you're on

150
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 2: a fixed income like that. Surely we need to be

151
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:50,559
Speaker 2: encouraging more families into work.

152
00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:56,480
Speaker 6: Well, we need to. I mean for some families, the

153
00:08:56,559 --> 00:09:00,200
Speaker 6: reasons they're on the benefit because it is difficul call

154
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:04,679
Speaker 6: to work and they need to be on it. So, yes,

155
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:06,720
Speaker 6: while we do want some families to work, we want

156
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:08,520
Speaker 6: those that have to be on the benefit to be

157
00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:12,080
Speaker 6: able to afford healthy food. And often it's the other

158
00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:16,480
Speaker 6: cost like the rent and the transport and the electricity

159
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:18,760
Speaker 6: that mean that there's not very much left over for

160
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:19,960
Speaker 6: food at the end of the day.

161
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:23,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, sorry, No, I was referring to the job seekert there.

162
00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:27,439
Speaker 2: Does this include do this research look at you know,

163
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:32,280
Speaker 2: the schools providing lunches for kids, families who might be

164
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:34,520
Speaker 2: gardening or growing their own food that kind of stuff.

165
00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:39,319
Speaker 6: No, it doesn't, and we have done some other research

166
00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 6: that shows obviously if you are gathering or growing your

167
00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:47,240
Speaker 6: own food from other sources then that will bring that down.

168
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:51,679
Speaker 6: And the Healthy School Lunch is program that does provide

169
00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 6: a free lunch to about a quarter of our children.

170
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:58,320
Speaker 6: Of course, that is going to help those families with

171
00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:01,880
Speaker 6: their budgets, and research has that it does reduce the

172
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:06,400
Speaker 6: food budget per week. So we're pleased to see that

173
00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:10,160
Speaker 6: the government has kept the Healthy School Lunches program and

174
00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:12,280
Speaker 6: it would be great if it could reach more children.

175
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,040
Speaker 2: All right, Sally, thank you very much for your time.

176
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:18,440
Speaker 2: That's doctor Sally McKay. She's with the Health Coalition Altered. Oh,

177
00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:21,040
Speaker 2: it just got eighteen minutes after five. How many vigies

178
00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:24,360
Speaker 2: do you eat every day? I struggle to think I

179
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:26,640
Speaker 2: had a lot of eggs. I think only I only

180
00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:28,840
Speaker 2: really have veggies at dinner to be honest with you,

181
00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:32,640
Speaker 2: and I don't have any fruit. Does that make me unhealthy?

182
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:35,480
Speaker 2: Or does that just make me like the ninety five

183
00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:39,319
Speaker 2: percent of New Zealand children who aren't meeting the recommended

184
00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:42,640
Speaker 2: daily dose of veggies and fruit. Nineteen after five Ginny

185
00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:43,679
Speaker 2: Anderson Next.

186
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:49,160
Speaker 1: On your radio and online on iHeartRadio Early Edition with

187
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:52,720
Speaker 1: Ryan Bridge and Smith City, New Zealand's Furniture, Beds and

188
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:54,439
Speaker 1: a Plying Store news Talk.

189
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:56,240
Speaker 2: Sa'd be it is twenty one after five year on

190
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:58,240
Speaker 2: news Talk said be, we're in a race to get

191
00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:01,160
Speaker 2: to a race five twenty eight this morning, the women's

192
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:04,280
Speaker 2: pursuit cycle team is in a gold medal race. We're

193
00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:06,160
Speaker 2: going to bring it for you live right now. Though

194
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:10,520
Speaker 2: in Well, I suppose it's petty politics. We're going to

195
00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:14,240
Speaker 2: Ginny Anderson, who's the Labor police spokesperson, because the police

196
00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:18,640
Speaker 2: Minister Mark Mitchell is refusing to allow Labor a Labor's

197
00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:22,160
Speaker 2: Ginny Anderson to meet an Auckland police inspector. Sounds pretty

198
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:25,400
Speaker 2: petty to me. It comes two years after Mitchell himself,

199
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:28,720
Speaker 2: who was then National's police spokesperson in opposition you'll remember,

200
00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:31,679
Speaker 2: was blocked from meeting with police leaders by the then

201
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:36,080
Speaker 2: police Minister Portor Williams, a decision he said was petulant

202
00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:38,880
Speaker 2: and vindictive. Ginny Anderson's with us, good.

203
00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:41,160
Speaker 7: Morning, Good morning Ryan, how are you.

204
00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:44,439
Speaker 2: I'm good, thank you. Now I just want to read

205
00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:46,480
Speaker 2: you what he has said. His office has told us.

206
00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:52,200
Speaker 2: He says, basically, I would support such a request if

207
00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:54,520
Speaker 2: you were going to meet with the commissioner. I cannot

208
00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:58,080
Speaker 2: support a generic request to visit a police station with

209
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:00,040
Speaker 2: no context, with a week's.

210
00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:06,360
Speaker 7: No Well, I think he's walking that back quite quickly

211
00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:10,719
Speaker 7: because he's realized that he has made a mistake. It's

212
00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:14,199
Speaker 7: a well established practice that you go to the minister's office.

213
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:18,160
Speaker 7: Borrows myself and Chris Hopkins never made any attempts to

214
00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:21,960
Speaker 7: stop him from making visits when he was the opposition spokesperson,

215
00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:25,160
Speaker 7: and all the information that's required as the date and

216
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:28,520
Speaker 7: the place until you intend to meet with So I

217
00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:31,760
Speaker 7: think he's realized that he's reacted in the wrong way.

218
00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:34,640
Speaker 2: So were you just going to bowl up or had

219
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:37,640
Speaker 2: you been contact with someone there to meet with them?

220
00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:41,360
Speaker 7: We'd sort of to the MP on the ground often

221
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:45,160
Speaker 7: makes inquiries. We wouldn't attend unless the minister had approved.

222
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:48,800
Speaker 2: But was the meeting did you speak to did you

223
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:51,200
Speaker 2: arrange a meeting with an inspector there and then go

224
00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:53,680
Speaker 2: get permission from the minister or did you do the

225
00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:56,760
Speaker 2: minister first? And actually you haven't got a specific meeting

226
00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:58,120
Speaker 2: in mind.

227
00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:00,960
Speaker 7: I think Shannon Helbert had done some liminary work, but

228
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:04,720
Speaker 7: we wouldn't do that until the minister had approved the meeting.

229
00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:07,760
Speaker 2: Right, Because it sounds like he says I cannot support

230
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:10,080
Speaker 2: a generic request to visit a police station with no

231
00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:12,040
Speaker 2: context or the week to notice. It sounds like he

232
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 2: was worried that if he gave you permission, you were

233
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:15,760
Speaker 2: just going to bowl up there and just sort of

234
00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:16,960
Speaker 2: harass people.

235
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:19,680
Speaker 7: No, no, that's not the practice. It's quite an established

236
00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:22,720
Speaker 7: practice that you only speak with someone who's inspector level

237
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:25,720
Speaker 7: or higher, and it's a meeting, usually in the station,

238
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,560
Speaker 7: and it would be half an hour an hour. He'd

239
00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:31,679
Speaker 7: done it many many times himself. He should know that

240
00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:34,800
Speaker 7: it's a pretty standard practice. And the overall concern is

241
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:37,480
Speaker 7: we would not want to politicize the police. So it's

242
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:40,040
Speaker 7: fighting by general rules to make sure the police are

243
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:42,440
Speaker 7: protected from visits and we not dragged into the sort

244
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:43,839
Speaker 7: of political you know.

245
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:48,079
Speaker 2: Yeah, fair enough. Who was the inspector, Janine, What did

246
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:49,079
Speaker 2: you want to talk to them about?

247
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 7: Oh, well, we were quite interested in an Auckland retail crime.

248
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:55,560
Speaker 7: That has been an ongoing issue for both governments. So

249
00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:58,560
Speaker 7: it's important that we understand the recent events that have

250
00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:02,319
Speaker 7: been happening, how they are upon the community, and also

251
00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:05,360
Speaker 7: what Mesure's police are putting into place to reassure the

252
00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:08,800
Speaker 7: community that things are being responded too quickly.

253
00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:10,679

Speaker 9: It's hoped that this upcoming study will identify any links

314
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:07,760

319
00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:25,080

Speaker 2: Clear sewers in christ Church Cliar. Good morning to you.

324
00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:39,680
Speaker 2: The high school board that's saying don't care, don't want

325
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:41,720
Speaker 2: to know about it to the chief on Boodsman.

326
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:45,000
Speaker 10: Yeah, Peter Bosches is the way Kashmir High School's board

327
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:48,040
Speaker 10: communicated with a family after declining an out of zone

328
00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:52,520
Speaker 10: enrollment was unreasonable. He says, it didn't give explain its decision,

329
00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:56,200
Speaker 10: rather all outline the factors it had considered. Bosches recommended

330
00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:58,760
Speaker 10: an apology and steps to make sure its members know

331
00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:02,399
Speaker 10: they need to provide proper explanations. He says the board

332
00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:06,119
Speaker 10: has refused to implement those recommendations. Though the chairperson of

333
00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:09,919
Speaker 10: the board, James O'Donnell O'Connell rather says the board treated

334
00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:14,040
Speaker 10: the situation like any other enrollment. Its correspondence was clear, all.

335
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:15,600
Speaker 2: Right and how's your wear it today, Claire.

336

Speaker 10: high is eleven with six overnights.

338
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:24,199
Speaker 2: Brilliant. Thank you Max Tolers and Wellington for us. This

339
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:27,000
Speaker 2: morning a fire crew racing to a fire has been

340
00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:31,520
Speaker 2: hindered by a council installation. This is not the raised crossings?

341
00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:36,200
Speaker 2: What is this so a good story? In the post today?

342
00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:38,720
Speaker 11: Emails from fire and an emergency to the City Council

343
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:41,679
Speaker 11: have been revealed, showing well a range of complaints and

344
00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:45,680
Speaker 11: warnings about new cycle ways features around the city. One example,

345
00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:49,639
Speaker 11: on Kent and Cambridge Terraces, the council put in a

346
00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:53,399
Speaker 11: pretty looking set of planter boxes where there was a

347
00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:56,359
Speaker 11: sort of opportunity to u turn. Of course, there was

348
00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:58,679
Speaker 11: a fire crews left the station. They couldn't make their

349
00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:01,520
Speaker 11: usual turn up the road because these things suddenly appeared.

350
00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:02,720
Speaker 11: They had to go all the way up to the

351
00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:07,240
Speaker 11: Basin Reserve turn around. Those planter boxes were later removed

352
00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:11,000
Speaker 11: fends also complaining about new newtown cycle ways. We've been

353
00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:14,240
Speaker 11: reporting on those raised crossings on Thornton Key. The council

354
00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:17,800
Speaker 11: meeting today to discuss those Fens did admit it could

355
00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:20,040
Speaker 11: have been a little more proactive in the past about

356
00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:23,280
Speaker 11: sounding warnings about these works, which might be why we're

357
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:24,520
Speaker 11: hearing a little more about them now.

358
00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:28,919
Speaker 2: Goodness mate, is that their responsibility? We have weather today max.

359
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:31,639
Speaker 11: Occasional rain, strong northeries twelve.

360
00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:34,480
Speaker 2: Thank you very much neighbors and Auckland this morning, good morning,

361
00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:37,879
Speaker 2: good morning. Now what time can does you sell booze?

362
00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:40,440
Speaker 2: To tell and Auckland is at ten pm? You can?

363
00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:43,560
Speaker 12: Well, yes, well I always are. Usually when I'm at

364
00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:46,119
Speaker 12: the supermarket, I'm the early like at about six or

365
00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:48,680
Speaker 12: seven am and I'll just pop on you a bottle

366
00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:49,040
Speaker 12: of wine.

367
00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:50,359
Speaker 2: Then at that top it.

368
00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:52,680
Speaker 12: Just put it on my way trolley. So I'm never

369
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:54,320
Speaker 12: there at night. But I think it is you know

370
00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:57,760
Speaker 12: you can go when ten pm. So now what's happening

371
00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:00,240
Speaker 12: is that the Auckland supermarkets and bars will likely soon

372
00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:04,080
Speaker 12: have to stop selling alcohol earlier the city local Alcohol

373
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:06,720
Speaker 12: policy now that's just been approved. This is by the

374
00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:10,399
Speaker 12: Alcohol Regulatory and Licensing authority. So Mayor Wayne Brown and

375
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:12,240
Speaker 12: the council is what they have to do now is

376
00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:14,400
Speaker 12: that they have to choose a date for this policy

377
00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:17,240
Speaker 12: to come into force. So it means that the bottle shops,

378
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:19,920
Speaker 12: supermarkets they're going to have to stop selling it at

379
00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:23,280
Speaker 12: nine pms, Are you quite right? Nine pm? And bars

380
00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:25,159
Speaker 12: and restaurants they won't be able to sell This is

381
00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:27,960
Speaker 12: what I like any later that four am. Who's out

382
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:28,760
Speaker 12: drinking after four?

383
00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:32,000
Speaker 2: I thought it was, you know, like nine pm. It

384
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:33,640
Speaker 2: just means you have to stock up with more.

385
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:36,040
Speaker 12: Well, that's right, You've got to be organized, be organized

386

Speaker 2: life there are questions. As a kid, they're pretty straightforward,

391
00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:50,439

413
00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:58,520
Speaker 2: So obviously there's a big whistle stop tour going on

414
00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:03,080
Speaker 2: Karmala Harris and her new running mates and Waltz and

415
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:06,960
Speaker 2: the base loves this. What are those swing voters thinking

416
00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:09,040
Speaker 2: about them.

417
00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:11,120
Speaker 13: Well, they are managing to pull in more voters from

418
00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:14,360
Speaker 13: across the country because their rallies are huge at the moment.

419
00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:17,680
Speaker 13: Tim Wolts and Kamala Harris after Wisconsin this afternoon, Ryan,

420
00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:21,120
Speaker 13: where are reported eight thousand people are expecting to hear

421
00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:22,960
Speaker 13: from them. I'm told the queue to get a car

422
00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:26,600
Speaker 13: park is three kilometers long, and then they're off to Michigan.

423
00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:30,359
Speaker 13: It feels like Democrats have this renewed sense of momentum

424
00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:33,520
Speaker 13: and energy. Last night you would have seen thousands packed

425
00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:36,800
Speaker 13: out this auditorium in Philadelphia to hear from them, both

426
00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:38,920
Speaker 13: for the first time as running mates. They both gain

427
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:43,160
Speaker 13: fiery speeches. People in the crowd described the atmosphere as electric.

428
00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:46,560
Speaker 13: People compared it to when Barack Obama was running first

429
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:48,800
Speaker 13: in two thousand and eight. Now, let's talk about how

430
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:52,439
Speaker 13: this has gone down with the Republicans and Donald Trump.

431
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:52,680
Speaker 4: Now.

432
00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:55,240
Speaker 13: It was on Fox News this morning and he said

433
00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:57,919
Speaker 13: he was shocked that Kamala Harris chose Waltz, but that

434
00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:00,880
Speaker 13: he was thrilled, and he said that Harris didn't choose

435
00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:05,159
Speaker 13: the Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro because of his Jewish faith

436
00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:08,119
Speaker 13: and Republicans are testing out a number of new attacks

437
00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:11,480
Speaker 13: against the peer, but nothing's really landed yet. They're calling

438
00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:14,480
Speaker 13: Tim Walls a far left lunatic or a left wing

439
00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:15,399
Speaker 13: radical Ryan.

440
00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:18,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, take your pick. Thank you for that, Mitch mccanna,

441
00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:21,399
Speaker 2: US correspondent. Things are getting very interesting there. And the

442
00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:25,359
Speaker 2: Jewish thing, Yeah, he's basically saying because Carmena Harris is

443
00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:28,320
Speaker 2: so far left she didn't want to anger the pro

444
00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:32,000
Speaker 2: Palestine groups by picking a Jewish guy to be her

445
00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:36,440
Speaker 2: running mate. Go figure ten minutes away from six Rich

446
00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:37,200
Speaker 2: back home.

447
00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:37,400
Speaker 4: Now.

448
00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:40,680
Speaker 2: Unemployments sitting at four point six percent for the June quarter.

449
00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:43,000
Speaker 2: That's a three year high, and it's an increase from

450
00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:46,679
Speaker 2: four point three percent from quarter one. It means basically,

451
00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:49,600
Speaker 2: thirty three thousand people who had jobs this time last

452
00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:52,280
Speaker 2: year are now out of work. But what a business

453
00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:54,640
Speaker 2: is on the ground seeing right now? Because remember that's

454
00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:57,280
Speaker 2: that's old data by now, isn't it. The Employer of

455
00:24:57,320 --> 00:25:02,160
Speaker 2: Manufacturers Association. Alan McDonald's with me, Alan, Good morning, Cold

456
00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:05,080
Speaker 2: I Eran, what are you seeing? How much worse are

457
00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:06,760
Speaker 2: job cuts going to get? In your view?

458
00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:11,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, unfortunately, I think it's going to continue. We've been

459
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:16,080
Speaker 4: seeing a steady increase in the numbers of businesses calling

460
00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:19,680
Speaker 4: out advice line, our helpline for our members to talk

461
00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:23,399
Speaker 4: about restructuring and redundancy. And I really had expected it

462
00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:26,080
Speaker 4: to start heading the other way, but we just hit

463
00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:28,399
Speaker 4: a record high in July of one hundred and sixty

464
00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:29,640
Speaker 4: three calls in a month.

465
00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:32,040
Speaker 2: What are they asking you these businesses?

466
00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:36,960
Speaker 4: It's basically how to go about the right way to

467
00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:42,280
Speaker 4: make people redundant or downsize their businesses because the business

468
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:44,320
Speaker 4: simply isn't there and they haven't got the work for

469
00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:44,919
Speaker 4: those people.

470
00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:48,520
Speaker 2: What sort of businesses are calling you? We're looking at

471
00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:52,600
Speaker 2: a whole bunch of methadecks and taranaki. We're looking at

472
00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:56,000
Speaker 2: the pulp mills. Are recycling paper mill in Auckland in

473
00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:57,919
Speaker 2: the news in the last couple of days because of

474
00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:00,359
Speaker 2: energy costs, they're looking at getting rid of it, folks.

475
00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:02,520
Speaker 2: What are you seeing? What types of businesses?

476
00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:06,239
Speaker 4: It's across the board. It's most of our members are

477
00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:09,240
Speaker 4: what you'd call small to medium businesses, so smaller than

478
00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:13,320
Speaker 4: probably one hundred or fewer than one hundred employees, and

479
00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:18,560
Speaker 4: all parts of the economy really manufacturing struggling quite badly

480
00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:22,000
Speaker 4: at the moment, but it's all sectors of the economy.

481
00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:27,440
Speaker 2: Once Adrien or decides to start lowering rates, how much

482
00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:30,000
Speaker 2: longer will it take for you guys, for your members

483
00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:30,440
Speaker 2: to feel it.

484
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:35,080
Speaker 4: Well, if the Reserve Bank does lower rates, it's likely

485
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:38,000
Speaker 4: can only be zero point two five percent. I think

486
00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:40,760
Speaker 4: it's more about the signal than anything else. There are

487
00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:43,920
Speaker 4: a few green shuits out there, and I think if

488
00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:47,000
Speaker 4: the Reserve Bank did lower rates, that would be a

489
00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:49,320
Speaker 4: signal that says, look, things are going to get better

490
00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:51,560
Speaker 4: and try and hang on. But it takes a while

491
00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:55,040
Speaker 4: for those of those signals to flow through into reality.

492
00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:56,720
Speaker 4: I suppose twelve to eighteen months.

493
00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:58,960

503
00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:36,879
Speaker 2: the games were done and he was out partying. Obviously

504
00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:41,200
Speaker 2: got carried away, remember Ali Williams. I mean, there's been

513
00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:07,720
Speaker 5: think the fact they're in teas probably explains that they
