It's a company that 8 00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:30,880 Speaker 2: you probably trust. Why then, have they just agreed to 9 00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:35,520 Speaker 2: plead guilty to a criminal fraud conspiracy charge? We asked 10 00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:38,400 Speaker 2: Irene King in just a few moments also this morning, 11 00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:43,159 Speaker 2: why is Julian Jenter, the alleged bully Julian Jenter, not 12 00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:46,559 Speaker 2: being asked to resign from the Greens, But Darlene is 13 00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:50,400 Speaker 2: are the Greens racist?

Luxen also plans 20 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:15,920 Speaker 2: to meet with both Republican and Democratic lawmakers, but the 21 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:19,760 Speaker 2: recalls to balance our relationship between the United States and China. 22 00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:23,320 Speaker 2: Former US Ambassador Tim Grossa says it's important we keep 23 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:24,240 Speaker 2: both on sign. 24 00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:28,319 Speaker 3: If the two autos part company on crucial issues, we 25 00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:30,800 Speaker 3: may be caused to make a choice, but we should 26 00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 3: deley that as far as we possibly can. 27 00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:36,520 Speaker 2: Nine million dollars of government funding is set to be 28 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:38,959 Speaker 2: cut over the next three years from a program to 29 00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 2: three D map up to eighty five percent of New 30 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:45,959 Speaker 2: Zealand's coastline. Only now up to forty percent of the 31 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:50,160 Speaker 2: coastline will be covered, which presumably is the most populated 32 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 2: forty percent of the country. I don't know. Otaga University 33 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:57,800 Speaker 2: Center of Sustainability directed doctor Caroline Orguston says the maps 34 00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:00,840 Speaker 2: show how communities might be impacted by severe weather. 35 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 4: It helps us to think about where the worst impact 36 00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:06,800 Speaker 4: might be coming from a changing climate, where we can 37 00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 4: safely build. 38 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:12,080 Speaker 2: How do you keep your employees happy? Is it money? 39 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:15,720 Speaker 2: Apparently not. It turns out the solution is quite simple. 40 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:19,519 Speaker 2: A US survey of office workers found just over half 41 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:24,160 Speaker 2: ranked views as the number one perk that they wanted. Yes, 42 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 2: Views like out the window, what can you see? I'm 43 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:32,799 Speaker 2: looking at three very average, two ugly men, one of 44 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:36,720 Speaker 2: them in glasses, not very well kempt. I'm not a 45 00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 2: happy employee. AUCME Business School lecturer Emily van Es says 46 00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 2: employers would be wise to take note of the results. 47 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 5: Many companies are looking for creative, innate perks, but I 48 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 5: think the most basic ones, like bullshit to the outdoor 49 00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:55,040 Speaker 5: environment is fundamental to us as human beings. 50 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:59,120 Speaker 2: And finally, this morning, protesters against mass tourism have taken 51 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:04,400 Speaker 2: aim at visitors in Barthlona with water guns. Yeah this, 52 00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 2: this is true. Thousands took to the streets in Spain's 53 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:11,520 Speaker 2: most visited city, stopping at hotels and restaurants to confront tourists. 54 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 2: Some restaurant diners were forced to move tables when protesters 55 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 2: started soaking them with water guns. Barcelona's mayor has said 56 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:21,679 Speaker 2: that by twenty twenty eight he will stop renewing the 57 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 2: thousands of tourist licenses that permit landlords to rent out 58 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 2: accommodation to foreign visitors. 59 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:32,120 Speaker 6: Ryan Bridge new for twenty twenty four on early edition 60 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 6: with Smith City, New Zealand's furniture beds at a playing 61 00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 6: store news dog zidby Bathlona. 62 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 2: You're going to get wet and Barthlona. Apparently. Where in 63 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 2: New Zealand do you think is Dropkick Central? The reason 64 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 2: I asked you that question. You know, the place where 65 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 2: you probably wouldn't want to get out of the car. 66 00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:53,200 Speaker 2: You know there's always a big long queue at the 67 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:55,880 Speaker 2: BK and the coffee is not that good. Drop Kick 68 00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 2: Central in New Zealand. The reason I ask is there 69 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:02,720 Speaker 2: is a headline in the Waikato Times today dropkicks drive 70 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 2: doctor from city. It's actually not a funny story and 71 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:10,000 Speaker 2: digest but it's not a funny story. There's a doctor 72 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 2: and his family who've been driven from their central Hamilton 73 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:17,039 Speaker 2: home by drug use, domestic violence, child abuse, and other 74 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 2: anti social behavior that he says makes them embarrassed for 75 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 2: the city that he grew up in. This is a guy, 76 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:27,279 Speaker 2: a doctor, trying to do good in a city where 77 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 2: he was raised. He says he chose to return to 78 00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:33,280 Speaker 2: Hamilton to pursue his career at Whitecatz Hospital and has 79 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:37,360 Speaker 2: fallen victim to the same menacing behavior of emergency housing 80 00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:41,559 Speaker 2: tenants that forced a company to send their workers home. 81 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:44,120 Speaker 2: This is aon insurance. I didn't know about this. He's 82 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 2: a beautiful, brand new building in Thackray Street in Hamilton 83 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:52,520 Speaker 2: where the workers were working from. It's a beautiful new building. 84 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:55,279 Speaker 2: They're all now working from home. They literally cannot work 85 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:58,479 Speaker 2: in this office space because the behavior is so appalling. 86 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:03,240 Speaker 2: His wife, the story continues, who stays at home to 87 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 2: look after their children, said anti social behavior can happen 88 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 2: at any time of the day, and it's turned her 89 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:11,039 Speaker 2: into a version of herself that she doesn't like. This 90 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 2: is the sad part of the story. She said. She 91 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 2: used to be sympathetic towards those who need help, but 92 00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 2: for the latest, after the latest experience, it's driven her 93 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:23,919 Speaker 2: to the point where you see someone that might be 94 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 2: looking like they'll do something antisocial, and you start judging 95 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:30,720 Speaker 2: people even though you don't mean to. I mean, how 96 00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:32,680 Speaker 2: to hear it too terrible as that there's a well 97 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:36,839 Speaker 2: meaning people. The couple provided The Times with a video 98 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 2: of three adults blasting music while smoking a substance through 99 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 2: a large bonghi while an older child looked after young 100 00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:48,720 Speaker 2: children playing among the group. Another time, the wife described 101 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:51,799 Speaker 2: a baby being used as a shield by a woman 102 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 2: who was having an argument with her partner on the street. 103 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 2: Welcome to Paradise. What do we do about this? I 104 00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:01,560 Speaker 2: know it's one of those questions that we can never 105 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:06,640 Speaker 2: really answer. And if anyone says wrap around services, don't 106 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 2: do that. But if you do have anything you what 107 00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:12,240 Speaker 2: you would like to say about this, well, perhaps you're 108 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:15,280 Speaker 2: from this area, do text me. Nine two ninety two 109 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:18,560 Speaker 2: has just gone twelve minutes after five up next Boeing 110 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:20,679 Speaker 2: and this court case in the US. 111 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:26,280 Speaker 6: The first word on the News of the Day early 112 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 6: edition with Ryan Bridge and Smith City, New Zealand's furniture 113 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 6: beds and a playing store News talk zaid. 114 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:37,560 Speaker 2: Be five point fourteen. Boeing have have pleaded I should 115 00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 2: say guilty to criminal fraud after the company violated a 116 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 2: deal that was meant to reform it following two fatal 117 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 2: seven three seven Max crashes that killed three hundred and 118 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 2: forty six passengers in twenty eighteen and twenty nineteen. You'll 119 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:54,239 Speaker 2: remember those. The company will have to pay nearly four 120 00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:58,600 Speaker 2: hundred million New Zealand dollars. The families of the victims 121 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 2: have criticized the decision and calling it a sweetheart deal 122 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:05,920 Speaker 2: that would allow Boeing to avoid responsibility for the deaths. 123 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 2: Mark Lindquist is the lawyer for some of those families. 124 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 7: FO one hundred and forty six people died in those 125 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:13,160 Speaker 7: two crashes. 126 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:19,320 Speaker 2: Therefore, a pleader manslaughter would be more fitted. Joining me 127 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 2: this morning is the aviation commentator Iren king Iron. Good morning. 128 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 2: What is your reaction to this? 129 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:34,520 Speaker 8: Look, it's a very substantial Oh fine, I think it's 130 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 8: right at the actual maximum. But really, you know, you 131 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 8: can find these companies. But at the end of the day, 132 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 8: what we're more interested in is does it promote or 133 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 8: does it improve the performance in aviation safety of the company. 134 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:54,880 Speaker 8: And I don't think it goes anywhere near that. 135 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:58,440 Speaker 2: Well, it clearly doesn't, does it, Because this follows the 136 00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:02,080 Speaker 2: twenty twenty one judge which where they agreed to again 137 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:05,360 Speaker 2: in lieu of going to court, pay a fine, pay 138 00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 2: a penalty, and then they were supposed to have this 139 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:12,680 Speaker 2: you know, monitoring for three years. They've now breached that 140 00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:14,800 Speaker 2: monitoring and here we are with another fine. I mean, 141 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 2: why aren't they going after these guys in court? 142 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 8: Well, I think one of the problems is the monitoring 143 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:28,080 Speaker 8: is the failure, and the monitoring is the FAA is 144 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:32,280 Speaker 8: not actually bowing Now I'm not excusing Boeing because I think, 145 00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 8: you know, there are some big performance issues in Boeing. 146 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:42,560 Speaker 8: But you know, ten the federal administration ESU Goers for 147 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 8: itself because the are the ones that failed with the monitoring. 148 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:51,520 Speaker 8: And the answer very clearly is no. So the fine 149 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:57,280 Speaker 8: process in the United States is very significantly different from here. Now, 150 00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:01,960 Speaker 8: if we put it into the New Zealand corn text, 151 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:06,080 Speaker 8: the management of this company would be in jail. Now, 152 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:10,160 Speaker 8: there's no question about that under our health and safety legislation. 153 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:15,560 Speaker 8: But you know, the FAA in the federal system is 154 00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:19,320 Speaker 8: very different. And this is about a failure of a 155 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:24,800 Speaker 8: federal system, and so you know, it's a bit pointless. 156 00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:28,680 Speaker 2: Really, I do we not inherit the safety features of 157 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:32,080 Speaker 2: aircraft that are developed in the United States? You know, 158 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 2: I should we be worried about, right, you know? 159 00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 8: Absolutely? And the question should we be worried about the 160 00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 8: performance of Going? I think, look, there's some there's some 161 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:47,719 Speaker 8: big question marks, but it comes back to the leadership 162 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,119 Speaker 8: and who they put in there as the chief executive 163 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:55,720 Speaker 8: and how they lead and how they think about safety. Now, 164 00:09:56,000 --> 00:10:00,480 Speaker 8: as I say, in New Zealand, here this thing was 165 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:03,319 Speaker 8: located here on the one hand, we have acc so 166 00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:05,679 Speaker 8: you can't sue them. But on the other hand, we 167 00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 8: have health and safety, and these people would be subject 168 00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 8: to an enormous fine and they would end up in jail. 169 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:14,439 Speaker 8: There is no question about that. 170 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:16,600 Speaker 2: Irene King, thank you very much for your time this morning, 171 00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:20,040 Speaker 2: aviation commentator Irene Kings saying that Boeing were they to 172 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:21,920 Speaker 2: be practicing here in the way that they were in 173 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 2: the United States, the directors might be in jail. It's 174 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:30,160 Speaker 2: just eighteen minutes after five o'clock. Very quickly. I wanted 175 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 2: to bring up France because we spoke about them so 176 00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:37,920 Speaker 2: much yesterday, and we spoke about them so much yesterday 177 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 2: and what we thought might happen didn't happen, right, So 178 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 2: what has happened is that France has just birthed one 179 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 2: of the ugliest political babies, I think, intellectoral history. We 180 00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:52,959 Speaker 2: were expecting a far right winging little brat, weren't we 181 00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 2: from France? That is not what we got. What we 182 00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:58,600 Speaker 2: got was a party that was only formed a month ago. 183 00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 2: When they went to the polls, party didn't even exist. 184 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:06,040 Speaker 2: It's made up of get this, the far left France 185 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 2: Unbowed Party, the Socialist Party, the Green Ecologist Party, the 186 00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:15,760 Speaker 2: French Communist Party, the Center Left Place Public Party and 187 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:20,800 Speaker 2: quote other small parties. Who is the leader? Nobody actually knows. 188 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 2: We'll have more on that later in the show too. 189 00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 2: Right now nineteen after five. 190 00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:30,400 Speaker 6: Get ahead of the headlines. Ryan Bridge new for twenty 191 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:34,160 Speaker 6: twenty four on early edition with Smith City, New Zealand's 192 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:35,839 Speaker 6: furniture Beds and a playing store. 193 00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 2: News Talk zid BE twenty one after five now. Changes 194 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:42,840 Speaker 2: to New Zealand's medicinal cannabis export rules have been approved 195 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 2: by Cabinet to help growers, manufacturers and exporters. Exports will 196 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,559 Speaker 2: now only have to meet the standards of the importing 197 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:54,439 Speaker 2: jurisdiction rather than New Zealand's standards. It will also streamline 198 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:58,199 Speaker 2: the licensing process for growers and update testing and laboratory requirements. 199 00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:01,319 Speaker 2: Sally King is the execus Director of the New Zealand's 200 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 2: Medical Cannabis Council and is with me this morning. Sally, 201 00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:11,839 Speaker 2: good morning, Sorry I did that thing again, Sally, good morning. 202 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 3: Hello Marina, Ryan, how are. 203 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:16,760 Speaker 2: You very well? Thank you? Tell me why have we 204 00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:21,680 Speaker 2: been requiring companies thus far to meet New Zealand standards 205 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:25,040 Speaker 2: rather than just the country that we're exporting to. 206 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:29,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, look, it's one of those examples of over regulation 207 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:34,080 Speaker 3: that is being untangled. It's a very good thing. I 208 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:37,679 Speaker 3: think it was an unintended consequence of the speed at 209 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:44,160 Speaker 3: which the regulations were written back in twenty eighteen twenty nineteen, right, 210 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:46,920 Speaker 3: And the effect of that was that, you know, a 211 00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 3: whole new industry and sector with regulations written within one year, 212 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:53,479 Speaker 3: there were always going to be a few snaffoos. 213 00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:55,720 Speaker 2: Right, Okay, so it was a snaffoo. We've fixed it. 214 00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:58,960 Speaker 2: That's great. How much we do we actually export and 215 00:12:59,000 --> 00:12:59,920 Speaker 2: where do we export it to? 216 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:04,280 Speaker 3: Mainly maybe to Australia and we don't. We don't export 217 00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:06,480 Speaker 3: much medicinal cannabis at all at the moment. It's been 218 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 3: far too difficult. There's probably been less than ten consignments 219 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 3: sent so far. But with the change, it's rarely going 220 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:20,839 Speaker 3: to open up the opportunity for New Zealand cultivators and manufacturers. 221 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:23,920 Speaker 2: Where do you think we will target and are we 222 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 2: going to target whoever has the loosest standards? 223 00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 8: No? 224 00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:31,800 Speaker 3: No, not necessarily. New Zealand has a reputation because of 225 00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:37,719 Speaker 3: it's really rigid or restrictive regulation for having really good 226 00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:41,920 Speaker 3: quality product here, so we're on the right we're on 227 00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:46,680 Speaker 3: the right standard already. Where we will be first targeting 228 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:50,920 Speaker 3: is probably Australia, but equally Europe. We have had some 229 00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 3: confinements CENTERP into Germany and into Europe as things shift there, 230 00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 3: and we'll see a lot more of that. 231 00:13:57,360 --> 00:13:59,719 Speaker 2: Just finally, can you paint us a picture, Sally, of 232 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:04,200 Speaker 2: what we're actually exporting? Is it a cannabis leaf, you know, 233 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:06,840 Speaker 2: put in a box that someone can get high from. 234 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:08,319 Speaker 2: What exactly is it? 235 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 3: Well, up until up until last week, the only thing 236 00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:17,320 Speaker 3: you could export in this system was cannabis leaf, dried leaf, 237 00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 3: and that was for further processing elsewhere. These regulations are 238 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:27,280 Speaker 3: real game changes because they allow for some extracts, some 239 00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 3: initial extracts, to also be exported. In all cases, therefore, 240 00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 3: what we call cannabis ingredients, they're going to be further 241 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 3: processed or manufactured, or alternatively, we can manufacture a complete 242 00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:46,200 Speaker 3: propre you know, GMP reading material. So the biggest opportunity 243 00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:49,560 Speaker 3: will be though with the ingredients. 244 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:52,040 Speaker 2: Sally, thank you very much for your time. Best of 245 00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:54,520 Speaker 2: luck with that. It sounds like snapoo, and I'm glad 246 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:57,680 Speaker 2: it's been fixed. That's Sally King with us this morning, 247 00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:02,640 Speaker 2: the executive director of the New Zealand Medical Cannabis Council. 248 00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 2: The time is now twenty five minutes after five on ZB. 249 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:09,200 Speaker 2: We're gonna talk about the Greens and Darlene Tanna. 250 00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:13,960 Speaker 6: Next, separating the fact from the fiction. Kid's Filly Edition 251 00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:17,920 Speaker 6: with Smith City, New Zealand's Furniture Beds and Appliant Store. 252 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:18,880 Speaker 4: News Talk ZBB. 253 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:24,000 Speaker 2: You're listening to News Talk ZB. It's twenty seven after five. Question, 254 00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:27,480 Speaker 2: how do the Greens save money on marketing photo shoot 255 00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:30,560 Speaker 2: costs for the next election? Answer? Just use their candidates 256 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:35,160 Speaker 2: mug shots. It's just a joke, people, Okay, don't get 257 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 2: too freaked out. They're not all criminals. But there were 258 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:41,840 Speaker 2: a few criminally absurd things that happened during yesterday's press 259 00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:46,520 Speaker 2: conference about Darlene Taner. Number one Chloe, Well, she got 260 00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:48,360 Speaker 2: a bit grumpy, didn't she, And you could see it 261 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:51,800 Speaker 2: on her face when a reporter asked repeatedly why the 262 00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:55,000 Speaker 2: Greens are asking Tana to resign and shunning her in 263 00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 2: public when old mate Julian Genta is still in the 264 00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:02,280 Speaker 2: party despite multiple agre of bullying allegations. The implication of 265 00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:04,400 Speaker 2: the question was that the Greens must be a bit 266 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:08,080 Speaker 2: racist towards Tana because she is what hennah moldy, She's moldy. 267 00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:10,800 Speaker 2: And Chloe was outraged by this. You could see it 268 00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:12,760 Speaker 2: in her face, you could hear it in her answer. 269 00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:15,640 Speaker 2: She rejected it, she refuted it. It was reductive, all 270 00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:18,480 Speaker 2: that kind of stuff Tana has done x y Z 271 00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:23,280 Speaker 2: Julianne did ABC. There are differences the irony of the 272 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 2: party that's perhaps best known for calling everyone else in 273 00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:29,080 Speaker 2: the room racist till they're blue in the face being 274 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 2: accused themselves of racism over not one in Tana, but 275 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 2: two in Ketty Ketty and three and two day if 276 00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:38,960 Speaker 2: you go that far back, was almost too much for 277 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 2: the new co leader to take. The second thing, it 278 00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 2: was interesting from that pressy yesterday. The second thing to 279 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:47,600 Speaker 2: note here is how little we actually know about what 280 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:50,560 Speaker 2: has gone on and how much Tanna was involved. The 281 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:53,160 Speaker 2: Greens won't say what was in the report. The report 282 00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:56,440 Speaker 2: is not public. Tanna rejects the report's findings. She says 283 00:16:56,480 --> 00:17:00,480 Speaker 2: it doesn't substantiate any claims of migrant exploitation, let alone 284 00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:03,400 Speaker 2: who alleged involvement in them. So there is a lot 285 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:07,400 Speaker 2: here that we still don't know, answers we don't have, 286 00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:12,760 Speaker 2: but a lesson for Chloe in political absurdity, expediency, no doubt, 287 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 2: and how to save money with a mug shot. 288 00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:16,720 Speaker 6: Ryan Bridge. 289 00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:20,040 Speaker 2: Right, we're coming back in just a few moments. We 290 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:23,760 Speaker 2: have news, sport and weather, and we're also going to 291 00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:27,080 Speaker 2: be talking about to our Australia correspondent this morning out 292 00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:31,119 Speaker 2: of Melbourne.

Great to 301 00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,520 Speaker 2: have you with me this morning. Not a great place 302 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:17,800 Speaker 2: to be, apparently in Thackeray's street. This is in Hamilton. 303 00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:20,199 Speaker 2: There's a story in the why Cutter Times this morning. 304 00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:24,639 Speaker 2: Dropkicks drive doctor from city. It's a heartbreaking story. The 305 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:26,800 Speaker 2: headline sounds almost like it's going to be funny, but 306 00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:27,199 Speaker 2: it's not. 307 00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:28,320 Speaker 5: So. 308 00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:30,520 Speaker 2: This is a doctor who grew up in Hamilton. He 309 00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:32,960 Speaker 2: wanted to do the right thing, return home and pursue 310 00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:35,480 Speaker 2: his career at Whitecut's a hospital. He said that the 311 00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:40,119 Speaker 2: anti social behavior from some social housing tenants living in 312 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 2: the area is so bad that he is literally being 313 00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:45,880 Speaker 2: driven from the city that he grew up in. He's 314 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:49,040 Speaker 2: not the only one either. There's an insurance company that 315 00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:53,399 Speaker 2: is around this area called Aon. They're workers. They've got 316 00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:56,280 Speaker 2: this beautiful brand new office. Workers aren't in there. They're 317 00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:59,359 Speaker 2: working from home. Too dangerous. How dumb is that? What 318 00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:01,679 Speaker 2: do we do about? Thank you for your text this 319 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:05,439 Speaker 2: morning nineteen ninety two, Good morning Ryan. As regards the 320 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:09,359 Speaker 2: antisocial behavior which has been allowed to flourish under labor, 321 00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 2: what now is required is a visible police presence and 322 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:16,720 Speaker 2: a police force who enforce the law. No more talking, 323 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:20,320 Speaker 2: says this listener. I agree with that. I do think 324 00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:23,159 Speaker 2: it has it reached a point now where you can't 325 00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:25,920 Speaker 2: just you almost can't just police your way out of it. 326 00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:29,520 Speaker 2: It is so endemic in some parts of New Zealand, 327 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 2: this so called anti social behavior. I honestly don't know 328 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:37,639 Speaker 2: how you fix it other than a multi pronged What 329 00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:41,760 Speaker 2: else do they say? Wrap around approach twenty two minutes 330 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,760 Speaker 2: away from six o'clock and we're going around the country. 331 00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:47,800 Speaker 2: We begin in Dunedin with Culum Cullen.

That's what we've done. 418 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:11,720 Speaker 12: And it's about seventy kilometers an hour, so I think 419 00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:13,840 Speaker 12: that's quite fast.

Now the Northern Territory Police Commissioner, 448 00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:21,440 Speaker 2: this is an Australia has declared another curfew in Alice Springs. 449 00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:25,400 Speaker 2: Our Australia correspondent as Donna deminishes with US Live this morning. Donna, 450 00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:26,400 Speaker 2: what's the latest here? 451 00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:30,760 Speaker 13: Yes, well, Michael Murphy did declare this snap curfew from 452 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:33,639 Speaker 13: ten pm to six am. This is for three days. 453 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:37,640 Speaker 13: This is because there's been a string of violent incidents. 454 00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:41,000 Speaker 13: Now the curfew applies to adults and children this time around. 455 00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:43,639 Speaker 13: Do we know that in March there was a youth 456 00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:46,640 Speaker 13: curfew that lasted a couple of weeks. I do believe 457 00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:49,119 Speaker 13: if I remember correctly. Now the Northern Territory Policeman, Ister 458 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:53,040 Speaker 13: Brent Potter says it's been a horror seventy two hours 459 00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:55,800 Speaker 13: in the Red Center in the Northern Territory. For instance, 460 00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:59,000 Speaker 13: an alleged assault of four off duty police by about 461 00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:03,240 Speaker 13: twenty people. A police officer was run over allegedly over 462 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:07,880 Speaker 13: outside sorry, outside a bottle shop. And we also heard 463 00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:10,280 Speaker 13: that a forty two year old woman was allegedly stabbed 464 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:15,680 Speaker 13: Sunday lunchtime. So we know now that these three days, 465 00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:18,000 Speaker 13: this three day curfew has been imposed. We've heard from 466 00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:22,080 Speaker 13: the Chief Minister also Eva Fowler, and she says she's 467 00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:26,879 Speaker 13: saying that organizations need to step up, do more, and 468 00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:29,919 Speaker 13: she's calling for more resources. So this doesn't keep happening? 469 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:32,040 Speaker 2: Quite distressing, Yeah it is, and as you say, the 470 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:35,399 Speaker 2: incidents keep happening and so do the curfews. Let's go 471 00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:39,439 Speaker 2: to Sydney. We're a council. Well, what's going on with 472 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:42,880 Speaker 2: this artwork featuring am I right in saying Jesus and 473 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:43,760 Speaker 2: Looney Tunes? 474 00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:47,280 Speaker 13: Oh, this is quite bizarre. But there's been quite an 475 00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:50,600 Speaker 13: amount of outrage over this work of art. So the 476 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:55,000 Speaker 13: Sydney Local Council has said that it's taken off the 477 00:26:55,800 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 13: art gallery wall. But there was this very vitriolic and 478 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:04,040 Speaker 13: highly critical online protest about this artwork. So what does 479 00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:07,640 Speaker 13: it depict? Well, they're saying that it mocks the Christian religion, 480 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:11,320 Speaker 13: and even the Liverpool Mayor said that he wanted to 481 00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:15,960 Speaker 13: take it down. Effectively, the art depicted Jesus Christ carrying 482 00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:19,399 Speaker 13: the cross. His face and others around him were overlaid 483 00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:23,600 Speaker 13: with Looney Tunes characters. I think Jesus was depicted as goofy, 484 00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:26,879 Speaker 13: so it was described by some as playful. On the 485 00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:30,640 Speaker 13: other hand, the online anger was intense and the criticism 486 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:33,199 Speaker 13: was quite scathing. The artist says, look, he does like 487 00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:35,760 Speaker 13: to stir a bit of a reaction, but the level 488 00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:40,480 Speaker 13: of vitriol and sheer volume of online abuse was frightening. 489 00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:40,880 Speaker 9: He said. 490 00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:43,920 Speaker 13: He called the threats a not at all Christian. But 491 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 13: after about nearly eight weeks then the artwork was taken 492 00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:48,639 Speaker 13: down over the weekend. 493 00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:51,760 Speaker 2: All right, so it has been taken down Jesus. Maybe 494 00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:54,399 Speaker 2: Jesus didn't have a sense of humor. Thank you very 495 00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:57,600 Speaker 2: much for that. That is our Australia correspondent Dona Demayo 496 00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:00,320 Speaker 2: with us this morning.

You all worth thinking that I was 501 00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:16,919 Speaker 2: going to give you all the dirty details, but I 502 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:21,080 Speaker 2: don't have any because the report is still behind closed doors. 503 00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:23,760 Speaker 2: Tana has resigned as a member of the party and 504 00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:26,160 Speaker 2: the Greens leaders have asked her to resign as an MP. 505 00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:29,160 Speaker 2: But what are the chances of that actually happening? Joining 506 00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:32,080 Speaker 2: me Now's political commentator and former ministerial advisor for the 507 00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:36,399 Speaker 2: National Party Bridget Morton, Bridget good morning, Good morning. What 508 00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:40,000 Speaker 2: happens here? So she's quit the party, that's okay. The 509 00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:43,080 Speaker 2: Greens are done with her, but she's not planning to 510 00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:43,719 Speaker 2: stick around. 511 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:47,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, Ultimately she has all the cards in her hands, 512 00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 4: unless you know, the Greens aside to do a backslip 513 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:54,520 Speaker 4: on the walker jumping legislation and actually invoke that legislation. 514 00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:57,400 Speaker 4: She can just sit there basically as long as she wants. 515 00:28:57,960 --> 00:28:59,680 Speaker 2: And this is because the Greens, I mean, they spent 516 00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:02,400 Speaker 2: about the good part of twenty years opposing walker jumping, 517 00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:05,120 Speaker 2: So for them to go and walker jump her would 518 00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:08,800 Speaker 2: be it would be pretty It would be pretty rough politically, 519 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:09,280 Speaker 2: wouldn't it. 520 00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:10,360 Speaker 8: Yeah. 521 00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:12,200 Speaker 4: I mean they did ultimately vote to get it in 522 00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:16,960 Speaker 4: term for it to become legislation under the Labor Greens 523 00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:19,240 Speaker 4: New Zealand First government because it was a bottom line 524 00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:21,440 Speaker 4: to New Zealand First, so they are responsible for it 525 00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:24,560 Speaker 4: being on the books at least in part. But ultimately 526 00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:27,480 Speaker 4: they've had chances to use it previously. Obviously last year 527 00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:30,480 Speaker 4: was Elizabeth Kitty Kitty, and they chose not to because 528 00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:35,040 Speaker 4: their Green membership is very anti using the walker jumping legislation, 529 00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:35,680 Speaker 4: which is. 530 00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:39,000 Speaker 2: Weird because they don't why they do now have constituency MPs, 531 00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:42,480 Speaker 2: but it seems an obvious one to use on a 532 00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:43,560 Speaker 2: list MP, doesn't it. 533 00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:47,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, absolutely, particularly a list MP who hasn't been in 534 00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:49,320 Speaker 4: Parliament for half of the time that they've been elected 535 00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:52,440 Speaker 4: for doesn't represent a constituency and there's no evidence that 536 00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:56,360 Speaker 4: she is undertaking any consipuency work. So ultimately, what is 537 00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:59,240 Speaker 4: she being paid for, particularly when the Greens could have 538 00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:02,080 Speaker 4: someone in there that is advocating on Green's issues. 539 00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:06,120 Speaker 2: Why are the Green's obsessed with that, with that particular 540 00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:08,760 Speaker 2: rocker jumping belt. Why do they not like I mean, 541 00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:10,680 Speaker 2: I know you mentioned that that they had to swallow 542 00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:13,479 Speaker 2: the dead rat as James Jaw put it and pass it, 543 00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:15,719 Speaker 2: but what exactly don't they like about it. 544 00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:20,320 Speaker 4: They believe it's undemocratic and then allows for parties to 545 00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:23,160 Speaker 4: have a hold over the MP. So it wouldn't allow 546 00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:25,880 Speaker 4: an MP perhaps to cross the floor. It would maybe 547 00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:28,600 Speaker 4: make parties much more of a dictatorship. You know, you 548 00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:31,640 Speaker 4: think about how the Greens operate operates. They've got co leadership, 549 00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:35,520 Speaker 4: they're very much and taking votes and feedback from their membership. 550 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:38,520 Speaker 4: As opposed to say, more hierarchical parties like Labor National 551 00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:39,840 Speaker 4: or you seel Avers. 552 00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:44,840 Speaker 2: It's almost a vote against or against the faith and 553 00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:47,720 Speaker 2: their leadership, the leadership with their party. Because if their 554 00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:52,440 Speaker 2: party was you know, was following a good process and 555 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:55,840 Speaker 2: adjust process, et cetera, then you wouldn't really care what 556 00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:58,800 Speaker 2: they did because you know, at least natural some form 557 00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:00,920 Speaker 2: of natural justice would have happened or occurred. 558 00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:05,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, but in this secumstance, Darling Tanna had said absolutely 559 00:31:05,360 --> 00:31:08,240 Speaker 4: natural justice hasn't occurred. She doesn't agree with the findings 560 00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:11,200 Speaker 4: of the report all the way. That's Wallbrook characterized them, 561 00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:14,080 Speaker 4: as she says in the press conference yesterday, So she 562 00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 4: would say that natural justice hasn't been followed. Therefore she 563 00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:17,920 Speaker 4: has been pushed out. 564 00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:21,960 Speaker 2: Just before we go what is natural justice? It's one 565 00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:24,000 Speaker 2: of those Is it just one of those buzzwords now 566 00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:25,760 Speaker 2: that we all say, you know, I haven't had my 567 00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:28,120 Speaker 2: natural justice? What is that like? Does that go into 568 00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:30,120 Speaker 2: court and sitting in front of a jury or what 569 00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:31,080 Speaker 2: do they mean? 570 00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:35,120 Speaker 4: I think it's often used as a bit of a buzzword, 571 00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:37,280 Speaker 4: but it does mean that people have the ability to 572 00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:40,280 Speaker 4: be have their views represented, to have the beliefs, have 573 00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:43,520 Speaker 4: their say, have that play out, have the rules known 574 00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:46,280 Speaker 4: to everyone, Have a clear set of rules so that 575 00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:48,640 Speaker 4: everyone knows what they're playing by. So you can see 576 00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:51,479 Speaker 4: in the circumstance, Darlinge may argue that she hasn't had 577 00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:54,560 Speaker 4: natural justice because perhaps she hadn't any control over that 578 00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 4: investigation or understanding what was happening in that investigation. 579 00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:00,000 Speaker 2: Which thanks very much for your time this morning, Really 580 00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:03,880 Speaker 2: appreciate it.
