Government 16 00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:49,960 Speaker 3: books aside because that wasn't so great yesterday. Tomorrow's GDP 17 00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:52,400 Speaker 3: read will show that we bounced back with a little 18 00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:55,000 Speaker 3: spring in our step for quarter three close to one 19 00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:59,760 Speaker 3: percent growth. They reckon what's more tomorrow That shocking read 20 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:03,360 Speaker 3: for quarter two that we all hated had us diving 21 00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:06,800 Speaker 3: under our desks that should be revised down because it 22 00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:08,840 Speaker 3: wasn't actually as bad as the top line number that 23 00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:12,920 Speaker 3: we were given to begin with. Today, consumer confidence is 24 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:16,640 Speaker 3: on the rebound. New Zealand fantastic news. This is the 25 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:19,959 Speaker 3: Westpac McDermott Miller survey. It's up five point six points. 26 00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 3: This is the highest level this year. Now it is 27 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:26,120 Speaker 3: still slightly below one hundred, which means we're still a 28 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:29,160 Speaker 3: little more glass half empty than half full. But it's 29 00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:32,320 Speaker 3: going in the right direction, as are the seek job adds, 30 00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 3: as are most of the numbers that move first when 31 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:37,600 Speaker 3: a recovery is underway. Now I say all of this 32 00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:41,600 Speaker 3: completely aware that we have been here before, and we 33 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,800 Speaker 3: have fired blanks. We've had many a false storm or 34 00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 3: a false start. But barring any major cockups, this recovery 35 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 3: feels like it's real and starting to actually happen. The 36 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:57,600 Speaker 3: missing ingredient, of course, is house prices, which are either 37 00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:01,200 Speaker 3: sideways or backwards for most regions. That's the liquor in 38 00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 3: your Irish coffee that really gets things moving on the 39 00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:09,239 Speaker 3: economic front generally. But this recovery will happen without it. 40 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:12,520 Speaker 3: It won't be soorring property prices that give birth to 41 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 3: this recovery. It won't start in an auction room with 42 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 3: a hammer going down on a four million dollar two 43 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:22,320 Speaker 3: Betty in sandring him. What's going to drive this recovery 44 00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 3: and make it probably more of a gradual one is 45 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 3: confidence in our agricultural exporters, lower mortgage interest rates, and 46 00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 3: I think, more than anything, a feeling that we are 47 00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 3: just sick of being in this position. Aren't you tired 48 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,200 Speaker 3: of it? The ironic truth of it is that in 49 00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:41,880 Speaker 3: order to get us out of this malaise, we must 50 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:44,800 Speaker 3: spend money, rather than save it, which is kind of 51 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 3: your instinct when these things happen, we must go out 52 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:51,960 Speaker 3: and buy stuff. So this Christmas, take that confidence to 53 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,960 Speaker 3: your nearest shopping mall, and tonight I can report I'm 54 00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:57,799 Speaker 3: doing exactly that. Westfield I've checked this morning is open 55 00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:00,959 Speaker 3: till ten pm. I've found it. I need to buy, 56 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 3: I'd want to buy. I'm going to buy, and I've 57 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:06,200 Speaker 3: been eyeing it up today. I'm ready to push play. 58 00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:10,040 Speaker 3: I'm ready to push play on summer, on spending, and 59 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 3: on an economic Christmas miracle. 60 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 4: Crayon Bridge nine two nine two is the number to 61 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:23,880 Speaker 4: text what are you going to buy? 62 00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:26,079 Speaker 3: What are you going to buy to support the economy, 63 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 3: that's your question. This afternoon nineteen nine two. Now there's 64 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 3: been a if you're in the shops, you may notice this, 65 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 3: a notable drop in violent crime being reported by retailers 66 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 3: this year. Retail crime intelligence company AURA has found the 67 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:42,200 Speaker 3: use of weapons is down twelve percent, violent events down 68 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:47,080 Speaker 3: six percent, threatening events down five Meanwhile, in Australia the 69 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 3: same kinds of incidents are trending upwards. Or Vice president 70 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 3: Nick McDonnell is with me this afternoon. Nick. Good, afternoon, afternoon, Ryan, 71 00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:00,080 Speaker 3: How are you very well? Thank you? So how do 72 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 3: we know that? Is this just in the areas where 73 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 3: your cameras are recording? 74 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 5: Yeah, so we're not a camera company. A retailer will 75 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:14,080 Speaker 5: put the information into our system like a database of 76 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:18,320 Speaker 5: information that they've already captured themselves, and they'll put in 77 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 5: the characteristics of an offense or an incident in their store. 78 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 5: And what they'll do is they'll tag it whether it's 79 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:27,240 Speaker 5: had a weapon involved, or it's been violent or threatening, 80 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:29,480 Speaker 5: those sorts of things, and that's where that's where the 81 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 5: data comes from. And it is obviously for people who 82 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:37,159 Speaker 5: are customers of ours, but that's quite a large spread 83 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:39,279 Speaker 5: across the country. 84 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:41,160 Speaker 3: And what do people tell you, like, why is this happening? 85 00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 3: Do you think, Well, I. 86 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 5: Think New Zealand has been very leading in terms of 87 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 5: its adoption of technology in this space. So one of 88 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 5: the big things is ten percent of people are causing 89 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:58,480 Speaker 5: sixty percent of the crime in retail, and we know 90 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:02,039 Speaker 5: that that ten percent six or four to six times 91 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:05,279 Speaker 5: more likely to be violent. But you have to surface 92 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:07,919 Speaker 5: that information in order to find the patterns and in 93 00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:10,920 Speaker 5: order to find the people causing the most harm. And 94 00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 5: retailers have really led the way and leaning into it, 95 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 5: and then the police on the other side of the 96 00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:19,440 Speaker 5: system have also lent into this earlier than other markets 97 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:24,039 Speaker 5: and are really collaborating together through the platform. But it's 98 00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 5: that recognition that retail crime is a really high volume 99 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:32,280 Speaker 5: crime type. You can't overwhelm the system with every incident. 100 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 5: So if you use the technology to really make sense 101 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:38,960 Speaker 5: of the information, that allows you to focus your resources 102 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:39,720 Speaker 5: more effectively. 103 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 3: And does that mean we are identifying people who you know? 104 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:45,599 Speaker 3: You said the ten percent? Are we identifying the repeat 105 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:49,039 Speaker 3: offenders and not letting them into shops? And that's why 106 00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 3: it's coming down. 107 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 5: It can be a combination right, So you are identifying them, 108 00:05:57,080 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 5: you are visiting to those people the event vents that 109 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 5: previously would have been seen as isolated incidents. So you're 110 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 5: actually saying this one person has caused ten events, rather 111 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 5: than there's ten different people causing ten events. And that 112 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 5: then allows police to be able to go pick up 113 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:19,240 Speaker 5: or investigate those high harm offenders that are having the 114 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 5: most amount of impact. And if you're picking up those people, 115 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:24,720 Speaker 5: you're taking them out of circulation, or you're doing whatever 116 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 5: else you need to do to prevent further crime. 117 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 3: Nick, really appreciate that. 118 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:29,840 Speaker 6: Up. 119 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 3: Thank you.

But what 175 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:57,200 Speaker 3: they've done because the PR disaster, which you'll know about 176 00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:59,600 Speaker 3: because you're in you know, you're in the sport world. 177 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,040 Speaker 3: They've come out with sixty dollars tickets really how many? 178 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:03,320 Speaker 1: Four? 179 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:03,839 Speaker 2: Well? 180 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:08,839 Speaker 3: Good question, So one point six percent of all available 181 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 3: tickets will be six capped at sixty dollars and. 182 00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 8: Now they would have sold yesterday. Well so this is 183 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 8: this is really winning a PR battle. 184 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:20,319 Speaker 3: But this is what I wanted to ask you about. 185 00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:23,680 Speaker 3: Because they allocating them to each team, so each team 186 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:26,440 Speaker 3: will get a certain number. But then who do they 187 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 3: how do they sell tickets to the fee for World Cup? 188 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:32,560 Speaker 3: You know, like, well will our team be said? It doesn't. 189 00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:34,559 Speaker 8: I had to say it, Ryan, You're telling the story, 190 00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:37,440 Speaker 8: not me. So ask yourself for questions and if you 191 00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:40,400 Speaker 8: can't answer them, we'll consider a successful interview. 192 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 3: Don't ask them all right, Well we might come back 193 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:46,720 Speaker 3: to that later on. Now Ashes Test to three is underway. 194 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:50,560 Speaker 8: Yeah, Australia chose to bet they won the toss. A 195 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 8: small problem with Steve Smith. He's got vertigo. 196 00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:54,720 Speaker 9: You had vertigo before? 197 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:57,200 Speaker 3: No, I haven't had it, horrid. 198 00:09:56,840 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 8: I've experienced the joy of vertigo, so you can't. So 199 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 8: he's not playing, so it was my Kwaja wasn't going 200 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:06,200 Speaker 8: to be playing, so he's been a last minute ringing 201 00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:09,439 Speaker 8: I suppose for Steve Smith. Now the Aussies are currently 202 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:12,840 Speaker 8: sitting at one hundred and forty nine for fur so 203 00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:15,840 Speaker 8: they lost to quick Wickt's a head's gone opening, whether 204 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:19,600 Speaker 8: all's gone opening a lablu? Shane gone as well at 205 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:23,520 Speaker 8: Green who just sold for the most expensive price for 206 00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 8: a foreign player in the IPL. So he's celebrating as 207 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:30,360 Speaker 8: riches and he got out for a duck. I'm not laughing. 208 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:32,720 Speaker 9: But who's at the crease having the time. 209 00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:35,400 Speaker 8: Of their life? Carry who's a great players on thirty 210 00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:38,840 Speaker 8: four was Man Cowaja. He's on sixty one. He was 211 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:42,400 Speaker 8: out for all money Smith got ill he come roping in. 212 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:44,760 Speaker 8: He's at finding it nothing to lose. He smassed himself 213 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,920 Speaker 8: a half century Windy, so he's still out there right now. 214 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:51,560 Speaker 8: He's sixty one Carriers on thirty four. You' even know 215 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 8: this test might last more than a couple of days. 216 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:56,360 Speaker 3: Well that had been fans, wouldn't it Now? On the 217 00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:59,080 Speaker 3: show tonight, the pacifica franchise wanting to break into the NRL. 218 00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 8: Yeah, it's another one. There are so many but as 219 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 8: opposed from the Orca and Willington and the KA and 220 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 8: all the other ideas that have come from down there, 221 00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:11,080 Speaker 8: this one is purely based in Auckland. And we're going 222 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 8: to talk to Jeff Brown about that tonight. He's the 223 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 8: bid lead. It's very embryonic at the stage, but he 224 00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,760 Speaker 8: talks a big game, talks about how important it would 225 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,480 Speaker 8: be to have a Pacific at rugby league team, not 226 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:27,679 Speaker 8: the rugby union team. The big question is is can 227 00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 8: two rugby league teams survive up here in the NRAL 228 00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 8: along with two rugby union teams along with a football 229 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:38,280 Speaker 8: team and where they play because he's not enough Stadia 230 00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 8: up here. But look, where there's a will, there's a way, 231 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:43,840 Speaker 8: or as some people say, there's a will there's a wake, 232 00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:45,719 Speaker 8: which is a little tasteless, but it's quite a good 233 00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:47,400 Speaker 8: saying it might happen. 234 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:47,839 Speaker 1: We go man. 235 00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:50,200 Speaker 8: And also I went out tonight to this morning to 236 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 8: the opening of the Sir Colin Giltrap Raceway and I 237 00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 8: sat around with Scott Dixon, had a good yar with 238 00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 8: him about life, the universe and everything. And that'll be 239 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 8: playing ten night on the show as well o'clock are 240 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:05,319 Speaker 8: Zach folks as well. We're talking cricket. 241 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:09,079 Speaker 3: Thank you twenty one minutes after four News talks b 242 00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 3: Darcy here at seven o'clock. Next i'll get to your 243 00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:14,440 Speaker 3: text on what you're buying to support the economy. Thank 244 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:17,400 Speaker 3: you very much on behalf of all retailers. But we'll 245 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:20,760 Speaker 3: also talk about Trump and you know the Venezuela situation. 246 00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:24,679 Speaker 3: It's very interesting. It's because he's he's going after the boats. 247 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,840 Speaker 3: The boats are carrying oil. What's happening to the price 248 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 3: of that oil? That's next cutting through. 249 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:31,960 Speaker 1: The noise to get the facts. 250 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:35,600 Speaker 2: It's Ryan Bridge on either duplicy Ellen Drive with one 251 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 2: New Zealand coverage like no one else News talks. 252 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:41,679 Speaker 3: The'd be We'll get to Jonathan Kursley, a US correspondent 253 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 3: after News at half four. So Trump is ordering a 254 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 3: blockade on oil tankers coming in and out of Venezuela. 255 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:50,880 Speaker 3: And you know he's been going after these oil tankers 256 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 3: for a while now and a seized one, so this 257 00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 3: is just a continuation of that basically. But what's happening 258 00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:00,719 Speaker 3: with the price of oil on board the tankers is 259 00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 3: quite interesting because the vessel owners have a war clause 260 00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:10,959 Speaker 3: in their contracts that they're delivering oil to basically Chinese 261 00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:14,720 Speaker 3: refineries usually, and they've got a war clause in their 262 00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:18,200 Speaker 3: contracts because they are worried about an interception by the US. 263 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:21,240 Speaker 3: And so what they reckon has happened since Trump's gone 264 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:24,959 Speaker 3: after the vessels, after the oil tankers is that the 265 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:29,559 Speaker 3: price per barrel of crude oil has dropped by about 266 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:34,200 Speaker 3: twenty dollars per barrel. There's a discount being applied to 267 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:38,040 Speaker 3: account for the risk. So basically it means that Maduro 268 00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:41,320 Speaker 3: is getting much less for his per barrel of oil. 269 00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 3: So even though they might not be seizing every ship 270 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:46,319 Speaker 3: or stopping every ship, even though that's what they're promising 271 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 3: to do, the price is coming down. So the squeeze 272 00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:53,280 Speaker 3: is coming on the oil industry. The squeeze is coming 273 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:57,679 Speaker 3: on Venezuela and by association Maduro. There you go, twenty 274 00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:00,960 Speaker 3: five minutes after four. Now on the tech to the football. 275 00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:04,720 Speaker 3: The cheaper tickets that we spoke about with Darcy, So 276 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 3: the New Zealand Football has come out and they've said 277 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 3: they are been given access to so they're sixty bucks 278 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:11,439 Speaker 3: a ticket because otherwise it was going to cost you 279 00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:12,760 Speaker 3: arm on a leg to go to the fee for 280 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:15,880 Speaker 3: World Cup. They have been given access to a set 281 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:20,479 Speaker 3: number of tickets, approximately eight percent of the stadium capacity 282 00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:23,680 Speaker 3: for each match, and they can make those cheap tickets 283 00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:29,320 Speaker 3: available sixty US to fans, player, families, and partners. So 284 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 3: I sort of thought this would just be a you know, 285 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:35,720 Speaker 3: an all in for you know, any man and his dog. 286 00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:40,080 Speaker 3: But apparently they're setting up a football Farno priority pass 287 00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:43,200 Speaker 3: for fans who are interested in attending, and it sounds 288 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:47,800 Speaker 3: like they will prioritize partners, families then fans. I mean, 289 00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:49,680 Speaker 3: I suppose they're all fans, but that's how it's going 290 00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:52,640 Speaker 3: to work. Thank you to everybody who is going out 291 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:57,200 Speaker 3: and making purchases to support the economy and the recovery.

Jonathan. 369 00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:43,840 Speaker 14: Good afternoon, Ryan, A good afternoon to you and the 370 00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:45,159 Speaker 14: listeners right across the network. 371 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 3: So Rob Ryaner's son Nick has been charged with the 372 00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:50,840 Speaker 3: murder of his parents. What can you tell us about that? 373 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:54,880 Speaker 14: These charges dropped formerly a couple of hours or so ago. 374 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:58,679 Speaker 14: They've been announced by the Los Angeles ditrity attorney just 375 00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:01,720 Speaker 14: before that, and they are to who counts of murder 376 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:04,159 Speaker 14: in the first degree. Now, they are very very serious. 377 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:06,240 Speaker 14: They are the most serious of murder charges and they 378 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:09,560 Speaker 14: carry with them the most serious penalty that been life 379 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:11,760 Speaker 14: in prison with no parole or the death penalty. Now 380 00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:14,399 Speaker 14: they have said that they haven't decided not whether or 381 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:16,040 Speaker 14: not to pursue the death penalty yet and that that 382 00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:19,000 Speaker 14: will be made in conjunction with the victims families. That 383 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:22,679 Speaker 14: is normal protocol for a case where these charges and 384 00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:25,159 Speaker 14: the death penalty as a possibility is the prosecutors will 385 00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:27,080 Speaker 14: always go to the family and say this is this 386 00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:29,400 Speaker 14: what you want? But what you've got is a very 387 00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:32,359 Speaker 14: very sad set of circumstances where Nick Reiner, who is 388 00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:35,800 Speaker 14: suffered years of mental health issues and drug abuse and 389 00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:38,399 Speaker 14: had been open about that he'd worked with a movie 390 00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:41,560 Speaker 14: with his father about the very issues of addiction, and 391 00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:45,399 Speaker 14: he'd opened up about the disconnect he felt with his father, 392 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:49,280 Speaker 14: particularly as a child, and Rob Riner had spoken about 393 00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:51,679 Speaker 14: the issues that he felt as a father trying to 394 00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 14: deal with a son who was dealing with significant mental 395 00:19:56,880 --> 00:20:00,840 Speaker 14: health issues. And now Nick has been charged with their murders. 396 00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:03,520 Speaker 14: We've just seen some footage released within the last half 397 00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 14: an hour or so ago showing Nick Rhiner with a 398 00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:09,280 Speaker 14: backpack slung over his shoulder going into a service station 399 00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:13,679 Speaker 14: just a matter of hours after the alleged killings took place. 400 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:16,199 Speaker 14: It is then the police swooped on him on Sunday night, 401 00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:19,159 Speaker 14: US time. They took him into custody, and they have 402 00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:22,720 Speaker 14: been pretty methodical LA police with this. They always said 403 00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:24,199 Speaker 14: they were going to be from the outset and they 404 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:26,639 Speaker 14: have been, and now they've laid these judges. There was 405 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:28,760 Speaker 14: going to be a court hearing today but that was scrapped. 406 00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:31,960 Speaker 14: And interestingly, Nick Reiner has hired a very high profile 407 00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:36,639 Speaker 14: defense attorney, Al Jackson, who was among his clients Harvey 408 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:39,919 Speaker 14: Weinstein and also Kevin Spacey as well. So this is 409 00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:42,000 Speaker 14: a high profile defense attorney who's now going to be 410 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:46,680 Speaker 14: representing Nick Rhiner when he eventually gets through court, but 411 00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:49,600 Speaker 14: that's going to be delayed while they essentially carry out 412 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:51,800 Speaker 14: mental health assessments to see if he's fit to be 413 00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:54,480 Speaker 14: moved from the facility where he is being held into 414 00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:55,080 Speaker 14: a court room. 415 00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:59,040 Speaker 3: Jonathan Trump and Venezuela, He's continuing to put the squeeze 416 00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:01,360 Speaker 3: on a bit of a blockade going on here on 417 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:03,760 Speaker 3: some oil tankers going to and throw. 418 00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:08,280 Speaker 14: Yeah. Essentially, as sanctioned oil tanker is going in and 419 00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:10,720 Speaker 14: out of Venezuela, he is essentially putting in a blockad, 420 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:14,760 Speaker 14: promising essentially the US will continue to clamp down on 421 00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:17,320 Speaker 14: this issue. We saw them seize a tanker last week. 422 00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:21,399 Speaker 14: And he's now also moved in huge amounts of US 423 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:26,160 Speaker 14: military hardware into the area around the Caribbean and Venezuela, 424 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:30,320 Speaker 14: and is essentially saying to Nicholas Maduro, the the authoritarian 425 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:34,160 Speaker 14: leader inside Venezuela, get out, get out of the job. 426 00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:36,960 Speaker 14: It had been reported he'd offered him a deal essentially 427 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 14: leaves the country that Maduro rejected, and as a result, 428 00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:44,720 Speaker 14: while the President is making this all about drug trafficking 429 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:46,800 Speaker 14: and saying that you know that there had been drug 430 00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:49,880 Speaker 14: boats coming out of Venezuela towards the United States. That's 431 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 14: how all of this started. Now it is that Venezuelan 432 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:54,360 Speaker 14: oil is making its way to or run to other 433 00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:56,920 Speaker 14: parts of the world, and he's trying to stop that too. 434 00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:00,200 Speaker 14: This is now a United States versus Venezuela approach. That's 435 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:03,040 Speaker 14: exactly what this is. And the United States has a 436 00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:05,720 Speaker 14: huge military hardware at there. I'm not suggesting that they're 437 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:08,280 Speaker 14: going to use it, but the President keeps suggesting that 438 00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:11,000 Speaker 14: some sort of ground assault could be possible. He's alluded 439 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:14,720 Speaker 14: to that over many, many times, as recently as last week. 440 00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:17,760 Speaker 14: But now this move to sanctioned oil tankers is just 441 00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:20,960 Speaker 14: yet another move trying to tighten the belt. This is 442 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:24,320 Speaker 14: a real economic foot on the throat, if you like, 443 00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:28,560 Speaker 14: of Nicholas Maduro. Oil is a hugely important factor for 444 00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:32,160 Speaker 14: the Venezuelan economy and if he stops that, well, he's 445 00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:35,320 Speaker 14: going to cause Maduro some serious domestic pain. 446 00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:38,400 Speaker 3: Now, this is a fascinating story because there are two 447 00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:41,680 Speaker 3: different accounts. From one interview with Bennetty Fear, this is 448 00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:45,160 Speaker 3: Susie Wilds, Trump's chief of staff. So the article sort 449 00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:47,160 Speaker 3: of implied to she said all this bad stuff about 450 00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:49,439 Speaker 3: Trump and you know, a lot of his cabinet, and 451 00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:51,280 Speaker 3: then she comes out and says on it's all taken 452 00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:53,560 Speaker 3: out of context. So who's right? 453 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:58,919 Speaker 14: Well, that's exactly the question, who is right in this? 454 00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:02,399 Speaker 14: Because zuoz Wil sat down with Vanity Fair over the 455 00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:06,000 Speaker 14: course of eleven interviews for what was essentially a feature 456 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:08,960 Speaker 14: piece about her, and now she's essentially saying that this 457 00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:11,200 Speaker 14: was all the hit job. She was quoted as saying 458 00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:14,800 Speaker 14: that Trump has an alcoholics personality even though he doesn't drink. 459 00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:15,880 Speaker 3: Said that JD. 460 00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:20,199 Speaker 14: Vance was a conspiracy theorist. He sort of tongue in 461 00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:24,440 Speaker 14: cheek responded that to that today, and then you had 462 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:27,840 Speaker 14: Susie Will's herself take straight to social media this morning, 463 00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:32,200 Speaker 14: as did many of the cabinet members, and Susie essentially said, 464 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:36,240 Speaker 14: the article published earlier this morning is a disingenuously framed 465 00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:39,680 Speaker 14: hit piece on me and the finest president, white House 466 00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:43,160 Speaker 14: staff and cabinet in history. She said the context was disregarded, 467 00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:47,240 Speaker 14: So look who to believe. Well, she's probably said part 468 00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:49,600 Speaker 14: of it. There's no doubting that it's quoted in there. 469 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:51,879 Speaker 14: She's not denying the quotes that were actually said. 470 00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:52,639 Speaker 3: It's that she's. 471 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:54,800 Speaker 14: Saying they were taken out of context. So I suppose 472 00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:56,400 Speaker 14: the question is now is what was the context? 473 00:23:56,440 --> 00:23:59,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, Jonathan appreciate that. Jonathan Kurzley, a US correspondent, time 474 00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:03,480 Speaker 3: as seventeen minutes away from five. It is all about 475 00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 3: how you frame it, isn't it. Because I had a 476 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:08,320 Speaker 3: look at the comments that she made and the way 477 00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:10,560 Speaker 3: that it was reported just depends how you report it. 478 00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:12,320 Speaker 3: What you put at the top of the story is 479 00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:15,960 Speaker 3: quite important. And so she said things like I disagreed 480 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:19,159 Speaker 3: with Trump on this decision about you know, going after 481 00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:22,560 Speaker 3: his political opponents, or I disagreed with his decision on this, 482 00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:25,920 Speaker 3: and then she goes on to say throughout the interview, 483 00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:29,199 Speaker 3: but I came to agree with his position, you know, 484 00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:33,720 Speaker 3: in the end. So it just depends which way which 485 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 3: way round you write the story. Is the narrative of 486 00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:38,480 Speaker 3: the prevailing narrative, isn't it? 487 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:39,600 Speaker 6: Nine? 488 00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:41,000 Speaker 3: Two? The numbers of text. We'll get to Barry so 489 00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:44,040 Speaker 3: Open next on JT and the White py data trust. 490 00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:48,200 Speaker 2: Politics with centrics, credit check your customers and get payments certainty. 491 00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:50,080 Speaker 3: Sporting to five after five, we've had a reporter in 492 00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:52,480 Speaker 3: court for the sentencing of Jevin mcskimming. We'll get to 493 00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:55,440 Speaker 3: that shortly. First. Barry so here, Hey, Barry, good afternoon. 494 00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:58,959 Speaker 3: Right now, the Wye py Data trust investigations over and 495 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:02,680 Speaker 3: it's avoided registration, but there'll be some changes. 496 00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:08,560 Speaker 9: Yes. Indeed, this investigation has been going on since twenty nineteen, 497 00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:12,040 Speaker 9: so it's a very long one and the wipe area 498 00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:15,840 Speaker 9: of trusts it's like an octopus. It's got tentacles and 499 00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:21,320 Speaker 9: so many parts of the charitable business and that's why 500 00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:23,600 Speaker 9: I think they found it really difficult to deal with 501 00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:26,879 Speaker 9: in terms of de registering it because a lot of 502 00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:29,560 Speaker 9: people would suffer as a result of that. As I 503 00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:33,159 Speaker 9: understand it, John Tammerherry, who's the CEO of the trust 504 00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:37,840 Speaker 9: and the trust may be parting ways, but that's what 505 00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:41,600 Speaker 9: I understand. It's, like I said, a long running investigation 506 00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:47,399 Speaker 9: and hundreds of thousands of dollars have been made to 507 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:52,159 Speaker 9: donations to political parties, to the campaigns and to the 508 00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:54,840 Speaker 9: campaign of the chief executive, John Tammerherry when he ran 509 00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:59,480 Speaker 9: for the mayoralty. Here now Charlotte Stanley, who's the Director 510 00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:04,879 Speaker 9: and Regulated Charity Services. She announced the conclusion of the 511 00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:10,600 Speaker 9: Sex year probe, saying that regulators had forced Wiperira to 512 00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:16,160 Speaker 9: make significant government, governmental and structural changes. What they are though, 513 00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:20,359 Speaker 9: we don't know, so the statement didn't provide any details 514 00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:23,359 Speaker 9: of what they are. Now you may remember, and I 515 00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:28,400 Speaker 9: was astounded by it that the wiper era's financial reports 516 00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:32,440 Speaker 9: for the year to June twenty twenty three, they're only 517 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:38,480 Speaker 9: published last year. They revealed that Tamaherry had repaid three 518 00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:41,439 Speaker 9: hundred and eighty five thousand dollars that owed to the trust. 519 00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:44,720 Speaker 9: But it was made quite easy to repay that money 520 00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:49,000 Speaker 9: because the key management personnel, of whom Tama Harry is 521 00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:53,359 Speaker 9: the most senior, had that year received a pay increase 522 00:26:54,200 --> 00:27:00,040 Speaker 9: of seventy seven percent. And that means they've become the 523 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:06,200 Speaker 9: New Zealand's highest paid charity executives, all earning over five 524 00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:08,760 Speaker 9: hundred thousand dollars a year. 525 00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:11,240 Speaker 3: The mind boggles, Well, the mind does boggle. 526 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:12,160 Speaker 1: I think. 527 00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:14,520 Speaker 9: I don't think we've heard the last of this yet. 528 00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:19,240 Speaker 9: But there will be governmental and other changes to the 529 00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:22,520 Speaker 9: trust and structural changes, and you'd have to say not 530 00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 9: before time. 531 00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:25,879 Speaker 3: No, exactly. Well, we'll look forward to your update on 532 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:26,440 Speaker 3: that tomorrow. 533 00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:26,680 Speaker 6: Berry. 534 00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:29,919 Speaker 3: Now we've got the German debate happening in Parliament? Anything 535 00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:30,760 Speaker 3: interesting so far? 536 00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:35,240 Speaker 9: Well, yes, it's the wrapping up. Chris Luxin's on his feet, 537 00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:40,320 Speaker 9: you know, thanking the cleaners, all the sundry at Parliament, 538 00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:43,400 Speaker 9: the messengers and what have you. So it's not particularly 539 00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:46,280 Speaker 9: exciting at the moment. The most exciting part today though, 540 00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:49,679 Speaker 9: will be the gallery party that follows the winding up. 541 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:54,480 Speaker 9: And I won't be there because the heather's doing hosking 542 00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:56,080 Speaker 9: in the mornings, which means. 543 00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:59,879 Speaker 3: Poor you, Barry. I have to yeah, well, you know 544 00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:01,040 Speaker 3: you've been to enough. 545 00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:04,359 Speaker 9: Your family comes first, Ryan, and indeed I. 546 00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:06,200 Speaker 1: Have been to many, many of them. 547 00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:08,440 Speaker 3: I used to avoid them because it was mine. You 548 00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:10,240 Speaker 3: don't want to get go there and then get to 549 00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:12,680 Speaker 3: to tipsy and then for you know, some people remember, 550 00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:15,359 Speaker 3: people would fall over and fall into the ice backet. 551 00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:18,720 Speaker 9: I could tell so many stories, will be shagging and 552 00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:19,560 Speaker 9: it's terrible. 553 00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:21,920 Speaker 3: You don't want to be one of those people. No, 554 00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:25,520 Speaker 3: but Labour's Labor candidate's views have been highlighted in Parliament. 555 00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:29,760 Speaker 9: Well, this is interesting and you may remember the economist 556 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:33,800 Speaker 9: Craig Rennie. He was selected to buy Labor to be 557 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:37,800 Speaker 9: a candidate in Wellington Bays, which is a new electorate. 558 00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:39,280 Speaker 1: Now. 559 00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:43,960 Speaker 9: He's, of course, since he left Grant Robertson's office as 560 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:48,120 Speaker 9: his advisor, has been working for the Council of Trade Unions. 561 00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:53,320 Speaker 9: So Nikola Willis has been reading a book written by 562 00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:56,479 Speaker 9: Ready and says if he wins the seat for Labor, 563 00:28:56,560 --> 00:29:01,640 Speaker 9: his views differ significantly from Treasury and wonders whether Labor 564 00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:02,920 Speaker 9: would go along with them. 565 00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:06,120 Speaker 15: He says this work suggests the debt limits should in 566 00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:13,000 Speaker 15: fact be around eighty to ninety percent of GDP, and 567 00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:16,720 Speaker 15: he cites the Green Party's analysis showing that the debt 568 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:19,400 Speaker 15: limit should in fact be up to one hundred and 569 00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:25,200 Speaker 15: seventy four percent of GDP. And this author doesn't think 570 00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:29,560 Speaker 15: savings are necessary. Says New Zealand does not face fiscal 571 00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:32,479 Speaker 15: constraints and thinks the debt could be a lot higher, 572 00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:34,920 Speaker 15: could be a. 573 00:29:34,920 --> 00:29:37,760 Speaker 9: Bit of spending if Craig Ready his way. 574 00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:40,800 Speaker 3: It's been an unhappy Christmas for some Barry wants. 575 00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:44,440 Speaker 9: Yeah, well, apparently the Greens, Chloe Swarbrick and the Maldi 576 00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:48,840 Speaker 9: parties Debbie no rewa packer.

It's more than 599 00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:51,680 Speaker 17: nine billion dollars A yeah, thank you labor. But as 600 00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:54,120 Speaker 17: we look over the next few years. Around eighty percent 601 00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:57,840 Speaker 17: of our borrowing is for capital investments, so that's an infrastructure, 602 00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:00,000 Speaker 17: so assets that we will have for the future. 603 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:02,920 Speaker 3: Okay, So why not run a zero budget like Bill English. 604 00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:05,640 Speaker 1: Did because we do hair pressing needs. 605 00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:07,640 Speaker 17: He had the same pressing needs, didn't he, and he 606 00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:09,840 Speaker 17: still managed to cut enough to run a zero budget. 607 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:13,760 Speaker 2: Heather Dupusyen on the mic Hosking Breakfast Fat tomorrow at 608 00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:17,960 Speaker 2: six am with a Vida Retirement Communities on News talks'd B. 609 00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:21,200 Speaker 3: Five away from five the Over in Australia, things are 610 00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:23,720 Speaker 3: really heading up.

We were 628 00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:45,840 Speaker 18: told they didn't say gas the Jews on the steps 629 00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:49,160 Speaker 18: of the opera house.

We're told it's 633 00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:10,480 Speaker 18: just a hoax. Well, the greatest massacre in Australia's history 634 00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:11,400 Speaker 18: is no hoax. 635 00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:13,920 Speaker 3: It's no joke. 636 00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:21,880 Speaker 18: It's a horrible, evil crime. 637 00:33:22,080 --> 00:33:24,719 Speaker 3: It's Josh Frodenberg. He's the former Aussie treasurer at Bondai. 638 00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:26,720 Speaker 3: Didn't mix skimming after the News of five. 639 00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:30,880 Speaker 2: The only drive show you can trust to ask the 640 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:34,560 Speaker 2: questions and get the answers, find the fact and give 641 00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:38,840 Speaker 2: the analysis. Ryan Bridge on hither Duplicy Ellen Drive with one, 642 00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:42,920 Speaker 2: New Zealand and the power of satellite Mobile New Sawks Heavy. 643 00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:46,040 Speaker 3: Seven after five on your Wednesday.

This includes best Reality 646 00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:57,040 Speaker 3: and child's sex abuse images. Melissa Nightingale is with the 647 00:33:57,040 --> 00:34:00,960 Speaker 3: Herald and Wellington was in court today. Melissa good Evening, Hi, Ryan, 648 00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:03,800 Speaker 3: How did the judge explain that a lot of people 649 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:06,320 Speaker 3: are upset with the length of that sentence? How did 650 00:34:06,320 --> 00:34:08,920 Speaker 3: the judge explain the length and the fact that he 651 00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:10,280 Speaker 3: gets to serve it at home. 652 00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:15,080 Speaker 19: Yeah, so the judge adopted a starting point of three 653 00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:19,520 Speaker 19: years in prison. From there, he's given a bunch of discounts, 654 00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:21,960 Speaker 19: the biggest one being a twenty five percent discount for 655 00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:25,760 Speaker 19: an early guilty plea. We then had discounts for previous 656 00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:31,680 Speaker 19: good character, remorse and significant rehabilitative efforts such as twenty 657 00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:36,000 Speaker 19: five sessions with a faith based therapist, engagement with the 658 00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:40,520 Speaker 19: psychologist who specializes in six offenders, things like that. So, 659 00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:44,200 Speaker 19: with all of those discounts combined, that brought it down 660 00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:48,120 Speaker 19: to a sentence of eighteen months in prison. Once the 661 00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:52,000 Speaker 19: sentence drops below or drops to about two years prison 662 00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:55,759 Speaker 19: all below. It's then available to potentially be switched over 663 00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:59,240 Speaker 19: to home detention, which he's chosen to do in this case. 664 00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:02,879 Speaker 19: Some of the facts thes were that given that Mick 665 00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:07,520 Speaker 19: Skimming was a well known police officer, that prison would 666 00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:11,120 Speaker 19: put him make him a prime target for extreme violence. 667 00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:14,840 Speaker 19: So he's chosen to commute this to home detention. And 668 00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:17,880 Speaker 19: when they do that, they have what would have been 669 00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:21,839 Speaker 19: the prison sentence, because that factors in when someone would 670 00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:25,000 Speaker 19: have become available for parole. So that's gone from eighteen 671 00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:27,959 Speaker 19: months prison down to nine months home detention with six 672 00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:29,400 Speaker 19: months post release conditions. 673 00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:33,040 Speaker 3: Goodness may more discounts than a Brisco's sale. What was 674 00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:35,960 Speaker 3: he like in court? What was his demeanor like in court? Melissa? 675 00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:41,399 Speaker 19: Much like his previous appearances, he was quiet, He didn't 676 00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:45,640 Speaker 19: show much emotion, fairly bland. He sat in the dock 677 00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:48,200 Speaker 19: with his arms crossed as his head sort of cocked 678 00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:51,000 Speaker 19: it the side for much of the hearing. When the 679 00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:54,520 Speaker 19: judge began to explain his sentence, he had mixed Skimming 680 00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:58,600 Speaker 19: stand up. He stood there facing the judge, hands clasped 681 00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:01,080 Speaker 19: in front of him, fidgeting with his but he was 682 00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:04,160 Speaker 19: really he didn't show a lot of emotion, and this 683 00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:07,840 Speaker 19: sentence follows a sentencing indication. He already knew he wasn't 684 00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:10,160 Speaker 19: going to jail, so it wouldn't have come as a 685 00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:11,000 Speaker 19: surprise to him. 686 00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:15,359 Speaker 3: What about the timing here, So we initially thought that 687 00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:17,920 Speaker 3: there was a timeline about when he had looked at 688 00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:20,360 Speaker 3: this stuff, but that's changed a little bit. You what 689 00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:21,680 Speaker 3: do we know? What do we learn today? 690 00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:26,719 Speaker 19: Well, his charges date back for about five years, but 691 00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:29,359 Speaker 19: it does say in the police summary of facts that 692 00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:33,279 Speaker 19: that is just as far back as the online records go, 693 00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:35,560 Speaker 19: so that was as far back as they could pin 694 00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:38,040 Speaker 19: him on it. But he has said to a pre 695 00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:41,960 Speaker 19: sentence report writer that he first began seeking out objectionable 696 00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:45,360 Speaker 19: material in twenty fifteen, so we know he's been trying 697 00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:47,200 Speaker 19: to look for this stuff for about a decade, or 698 00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:48,440 Speaker 19: at least that's what he's told us. 699 00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:51,360 Speaker 3: Melissa appreciate that update. Thank you. Melissa Nightingale, who's with 700 00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:53,759 Speaker 3: the Herald in Wellington and was in court today.

This is not a treaty settlement thing. 704 00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:04,680 Speaker 3: It is land though that the Crown promised to a 705 00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:07,319 Speaker 3: group of v We and their descendants way back in 706 00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:11,400 Speaker 3: the eighteen forties.

That's 710 00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:22,960 Speaker 20: what the court said. It never went out of ownership. 711 00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:27,480 Speaker 3: Great point of clarification. So who so does that mean 712 00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:31,280 Speaker 3: that Maori have always owned the able Tasman's Great Walk 713 00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:32,759 Speaker 3: and will continue to own. 714 00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:36,000 Speaker 20: There are parts of the Great Walk and part of 715 00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:38,440 Speaker 20: parts of the top of the South Island which the 716 00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:42,440 Speaker 20: owners own. The court confirmed that. And now we have 717 00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:44,480 Speaker 20: reached arrangements on a range of matters. 718 00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:48,440 Speaker 3: What are those arrangements? Can will we have always be 719 00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:49,840 Speaker 3: able to walk on it? Everyone? 720 00:37:50,120 --> 00:37:55,319 Speaker 20: Yes, public access has been confirmed for the park for 721 00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:58,359 Speaker 20: the next twenty five years. There's a confidential arrangement that 722 00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:00,640 Speaker 20: goes with that. But it enables us to enjoy that 723 00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:04,200 Speaker 20: wondrous and iconic place. We all love it. Anyone who's 724 00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:07,200 Speaker 20: been there thinks it's beautiful. And anyone who hasn't needs 725 00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:07,480 Speaker 20: to go. 726 00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:10,600 Speaker 3: What happens after twenty five years, Oh. 727 00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:13,000 Speaker 20: There'll be some discussions as we go forward. Of course, 728 00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:16,239 Speaker 20: DOC and the owners of that land will want to 729 00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:18,640 Speaker 20: work together to make sure that the tracks and good 730 00:38:18,680 --> 00:38:21,239 Speaker 20: maintenance and good seed and the huts of course, and 731 00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:23,439 Speaker 20: at near the end of the twenty five years there'll 732 00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:25,800 Speaker 20: be discussion about continuing with arrangements. 733 00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:28,080 Speaker 3: So does DOC look after it for the next twenty 734 00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:28,680 Speaker 3: five years. 735 00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:31,560 Speaker 20: Yes, it'll be seamless. There'll be no change in the 736 00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:34,360 Speaker 20: public facing interaction by the public with the track and 737 00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:36,920 Speaker 20: with the Department Conservation. It might be a couple of 738 00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:40,480 Speaker 20: improvements along the way, like a bit more cultural identities 739 00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:43,440 Speaker 20: and cultural markets around. 740 00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:46,120 Speaker 3: And who pays for all this, like who's paying for 741 00:38:46,160 --> 00:38:48,120 Speaker 3: the upkeep of the track and for the next twenty 742 00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:50,440 Speaker 3: five years and for the maintenance and all that stuff. 743 00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:53,359 Speaker 20: Well, Doc's had a free use of the track for many, 744 00:38:53,360 --> 00:38:56,520 Speaker 20: many years, and DOC continues to maintain the track as well, 745 00:38:56,960 --> 00:38:59,080 Speaker 20: and will continue to do this. As I said, there's 746 00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:01,279 Speaker 20: a change in the ownership of changing the title, but 747 00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:03,879 Speaker 20: the management, the upkeep, the maintenance will be continued by Doc. 748 00:39:03,960 --> 00:39:05,480 Speaker 3: Okay for twenty five years. 749 00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:08,400 Speaker 20: For the next twenty five years, there will be discussions 750 00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:10,160 Speaker 20: along the way, and those will be done in good face. 751 00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:12,000 Speaker 3: And are we going to pay rent? DOC going to 752 00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:14,480 Speaker 3: be I mean, will we be paying money to the 753 00:39:14,600 --> 00:39:16,960 Speaker 3: group of EWEI in order to use the track? 754 00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:21,520 Speaker 20: Well, there are arrangements from place around a number of issues. 755 00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:24,600 Speaker 20: Those arrangements remain confidential. I think you'll be aware that 756 00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:29,359 Speaker 20: the group representing the owners is a private trust and 757 00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:31,120 Speaker 20: those arrangements remain confidential. 758 00:39:31,239 --> 00:39:33,840 Speaker 3: Does that cost get passed on to the users? 759 00:39:36,200 --> 00:39:41,520 Speaker 20: Well, the interaction with the track by users. There are 760 00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:43,920 Speaker 20: some payments that are made for the huts already and 761 00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:44,720 Speaker 20: for camp sites. 762 00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:46,040 Speaker 3: Will they go down there? 763 00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:46,600 Speaker 6: Your note? 764 00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:50,319 Speaker 20: Well, I don't think that's what's going to happen. But 765 00:39:50,520 --> 00:39:54,080 Speaker 20: don't public access are guaranteed? 766 00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:56,560 Speaker 3: I know it's guaranteed. But will it costs more? 767 00:39:57,520 --> 00:40:00,279 Speaker 20: Well, I think you know as much as I did it. 768 00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:03,480 Speaker 20: Last year we made we had some discussions about DOC 769 00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:06,879 Speaker 20: becoming a little bit more prudent financially. We're so right 770 00:40:06,920 --> 00:40:09,839 Speaker 20: across the country. There are changes from time to time 771 00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:14,799 Speaker 20: around hut fees and campground fees, and those happened on 772 00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:16,799 Speaker 20: a regular basis as business as usual. 773 00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:19,720 Speaker 3: Right, But there'll be no specific change or extra charge 774 00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:22,200 Speaker 3: for able tasment as a result of this deal. 775 00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:25,879 Speaker 20: That's an operational matter and I lead it for operational matter, 776 00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:27,840 Speaker 20: the operational management of DOC. 777 00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:30,240 Speaker 3: What's your expectation as a minister. 778 00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:34,160 Speaker 20: My expectation and what has been confirmed is that there 779 00:40:34,160 --> 00:40:37,040 Speaker 20: will be public access to the track at what cost? 780 00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:37,919 Speaker 3: Do you not care? 781 00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:39,719 Speaker 21: No? 782 00:40:40,400 --> 00:40:43,760 Speaker 20: What I've said to you, Ryan, is that for huts 783 00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:47,440 Speaker 20: and camp sites, there are costs across the country for 784 00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:51,560 Speaker 20: various huts and campsites on various tracks. For the Great 785 00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:53,239 Speaker 20: particularly for the Grave, we're not. 786 00:40:53,160 --> 00:40:55,239 Speaker 3: Paying rent, but we're not paying rent for the land 787 00:40:55,239 --> 00:40:57,319 Speaker 3: on which we're walking on most tracks, are we So 788 00:40:57,440 --> 00:40:59,880 Speaker 3: this is quite a particular situation. So have you not 789 00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:03,440 Speaker 3: ask the question will the cost go up or not? 790 00:41:04,680 --> 00:41:08,920 Speaker 20: But Ryan, most Great walks DOC owns most of the land. 791 00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:12,959 Speaker 20: This is a different situation now exactly, and the land 792 00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:14,920 Speaker 20: has actually owned Some of the land is owned by 793 00:41:14,920 --> 00:41:17,239 Speaker 20: the Crown and some of the land is owned by 794 00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:21,120 Speaker 20: private landowners. So, as I said before, public access has 795 00:41:21,160 --> 00:41:24,920 Speaker 20: been guaranteed. There are already charges for the use of 796 00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:29,760 Speaker 20: huts and campsites throughout the country at various national parks 797 00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:31,520 Speaker 20: and great walks in other matters. 798 00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:35,279 Speaker 3: All right, Claire's mud Tuma appreciate that, Tama Putaka, Minister 799 00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:38,080 Speaker 3: of Conservation. It is quarter past five News Talks B 800 00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:41,560 Speaker 3: five to seventeen News TALKSB. The Road Cone Hotline. I 801 00:41:41,600 --> 00:41:43,359 Speaker 3: know you loved it. You might have called it. Well, 802 00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:46,320 Speaker 3: it's been shut down half a year early, after only 803 00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:49,680 Speaker 3: six months of operation, so basically half its life and 804 00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:54,160 Speaker 3: nearly ninety percent of the reports that people that they 805 00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:57,160 Speaker 3: got about the road cones they were actually compliant with 806 00:41:57,360 --> 00:42:00,520 Speaker 3: the council approved traffic plans. Now, Labours up said about this, 807 00:42:00,640 --> 00:42:03,040 Speaker 3: calling it them third, a waste of public money, et cetera, 808 00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:06,080 Speaker 3: et cetera. Labor Transport spokesperson, Tang, it's a kiddy, is 809 00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:08,400 Speaker 3: with me? Tonight's good evening, Tang. You nice to have 810 00:42:08,440 --> 00:42:09,040 Speaker 3: you on the show. 811 00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:11,439 Speaker 22: Oh hell, iter Ryan, good to be with you now. 812 00:42:12,520 --> 00:42:14,360 Speaker 3: Well, yes, it was a bit of a gimmick, I suppose. 813 00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:16,520 Speaker 3: But was it a complete waste of money? 814 00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:18,960 Speaker 22: Well, I think it was. I think it was an 815 00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:21,960 Speaker 22: absolute face and the fact that the government had moved 816 00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:24,799 Speaker 22: early to shut it down later this week is a 817 00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:28,759 Speaker 22: pure indication that it's a complete waste of public money. 818 00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:30,680 Speaker 3: So how much did we waste? 819 00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:35,040 Speaker 22: Well, sort of as of the end of thirtieth or September, 820 00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:37,640 Speaker 22: it was just shy of one hundred and fifty thousand dollars. 821 00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:40,160 Speaker 22: It's bent on the hotline. If you look at the 822 00:42:40,280 --> 00:42:42,600 Speaker 22: number of complaints that were actually logged to that point, 823 00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:45,080 Speaker 22: it was just over a thousand, so you know, it 824 00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:48,360 Speaker 22: soon adds up. But what could have happened as the 825 00:42:48,360 --> 00:42:50,400 Speaker 22: government could have simply picked up the phone, had a 826 00:42:50,440 --> 00:42:53,120 Speaker 22: conversation with counsels and others about, you know what the 827 00:42:53,440 --> 00:42:56,960 Speaker 22: rate of non compliances. But instead, instead we find ourselves 828 00:42:57,320 --> 00:42:58,960 Speaker 22: the bill will be over one hundred and fifty thousand, 829 00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:01,799 Speaker 22: and then of course you've got starting and contractors brought 830 00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:04,920 Speaker 22: in to train these staff. Over the road cone hotline 831 00:43:05,080 --> 00:43:06,600 Speaker 22: a complete waste of money. 832 00:43:06,680 --> 00:43:08,520 Speaker 3: It does seem like a little bit over the top. 833 00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:11,879 Speaker 3: But the ministers is giving people a voice, tanger, giving 834 00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:15,120 Speaker 3: people the public of voice. The problem, I guess is 835 00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:18,520 Speaker 3: that they are saying, actually, most of the complaints that 836 00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:21,520 Speaker 3: were made they were compliant. So do you think, like 837 00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:24,520 Speaker 3: does the labor think that we have a problem with 838 00:43:24,640 --> 00:43:28,719 Speaker 3: the rules that allow so many road cones, or do 839 00:43:28,760 --> 00:43:32,120 Speaker 3: you think the public are just miss overegging it. 840 00:43:33,360 --> 00:43:35,640 Speaker 22: Look, I don't think anyone likes to have too many 841 00:43:35,680 --> 00:43:38,880 Speaker 22: road cones as they head about the place. But what 842 00:43:38,920 --> 00:43:41,920 Speaker 22: the government's answer to this was was to simply pump 843 00:43:41,960 --> 00:43:45,000 Speaker 22: some money, put some resource into a hotline that clearly 844 00:43:45,040 --> 00:43:48,160 Speaker 22: has been a failure of all of the callouts that 845 00:43:48,200 --> 00:43:50,600 Speaker 22: actually went out. So when someone actually lodged a complaint 846 00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:53,960 Speaker 22: and then someone was dispashed to the site, it's about 847 00:43:54,080 --> 00:43:57,800 Speaker 22: ninety three percent of those callouts indicated that the cones 848 00:43:57,800 --> 00:43:59,799 Speaker 22: there was nothing wrong with them. So you know, this 849 00:43:59,880 --> 00:44:03,560 Speaker 22: is again a waste of public money. Nobody likes too 850 00:44:03,560 --> 00:44:05,719 Speaker 22: many road comes. But this is certainly not the way 851 00:44:05,760 --> 00:44:08,760 Speaker 22: that the government should have solved the issue. They should 852 00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:10,960 Speaker 22: have picked up the phone, had a conversation with counsels, 853 00:44:11,200 --> 00:44:13,400 Speaker 22: worked with them to get the information that they did, 854 00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:15,080 Speaker 22: and it certainly wouldn't have cost them at more than 855 00:44:15,080 --> 00:44:16,480 Speaker 22: one hundred and fifty grand. 856 00:44:16,520 --> 00:44:18,759 Speaker 3: At the end of the day, Tangy, there will be 857 00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:21,160 Speaker 3: people listening to this who will be saying, oh my goodness, 858 00:44:21,280 --> 00:44:23,840 Speaker 3: this is a labor empre I mean pot kettle black, 859 00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:26,400 Speaker 3: a labour MP going on about wasteful spending. 860 00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:30,160 Speaker 22: Well, the bottom line is this is the government that 861 00:44:30,320 --> 00:44:33,600 Speaker 22: is all about priorities, and it's chosen to pump one 862 00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:36,320 Speaker 22: hundred and fifty thousand dollars or more than one hundred 863 00:44:36,320 --> 00:44:38,239 Speaker 22: and fifty thousand dollars into something that has been a 864 00:44:38,280 --> 00:44:40,960 Speaker 22: complete failure. I congratulate the government on one thing, and 865 00:44:40,960 --> 00:44:43,640 Speaker 22: that is on calling it quits for the hotline rather 866 00:44:43,680 --> 00:44:47,080 Speaker 22: than being silly and continuing to roll it out into 867 00:44:47,160 --> 00:44:49,080 Speaker 22: next year. I've seen that this has been a failure 868 00:44:49,360 --> 00:44:51,480 Speaker 22: and they've decided to basically call the plug later this 869 00:44:51,520 --> 00:44:54,680 Speaker 22: week rather than continue to staff moving into next year. 870 00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:56,719 Speaker 3: Tangy, I appreciate you being on the show. Thank you 871 00:44:56,800 --> 00:45:00,640 Speaker 3: very much for that, and Merry Christmas to you. Have 872 00:45:00,680 --> 00:45:03,480 Speaker 3: a good one. That's Tanga Takety. He's the Labor Transport 873 00:45:03,560 --> 00:45:05,959 Speaker 3: spoke first and twenty one minutes after five now before 874 00:45:06,000 --> 00:45:07,719 Speaker 3: I didn't quite realize we were going to get him 875 00:45:07,760 --> 00:45:09,479 Speaker 3: on back to back. But I have some thoughts about 876 00:45:09,560 --> 00:45:11,919 Speaker 3: Tangy's press release today. I'll share them with you next. 877 00:45:12,280 --> 00:45:15,840 Speaker 2: Digging deeper into the d's headlines, it's Ryan Bridge on 878 00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:19,520 Speaker 2: hither dupless Ellen dry with one New Zealand coverage like 879 00:45:19,680 --> 00:45:21,200 Speaker 2: no one else news talks. 880 00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:23,799 Speaker 3: There'd be five twenty three. I was thinking last night 881 00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:27,400 Speaker 3: about the government's debts. We're touching cloth now on forty 882 00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:30,840 Speaker 3: six percent of GDP. I know it's massive, and this 883 00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:33,960 Speaker 3: from a country that hovered around twenty percent pre COVID. 884 00:45:34,560 --> 00:45:38,600 Speaker 3: And we still have roughly sixty thousand bureaucrats running around 885 00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:42,120 Speaker 3: minus only about five percent thanks to national and the 886 00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:45,560 Speaker 3: surplus keeps getting pushed out. Nobody wants to hack too 887 00:45:45,600 --> 00:45:48,200 Speaker 3: far into spending, of course, because then you'll spook the horses, 888 00:45:48,239 --> 00:45:49,840 Speaker 3: and no one wants to do that. And that's the 889 00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:53,799 Speaker 3: problem with government. Once you start doing something, it's very 890 00:45:53,840 --> 00:45:57,640 Speaker 3: hard to stop doing it. Once you hire somebody, very 891 00:45:57,640 --> 00:46:00,160 Speaker 3: hard to fire them, once you spend a dollar of 892 00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:03,200 Speaker 3: somebody else's money, It's very hard to stop spending it, 893 00:46:03,239 --> 00:46:07,239 Speaker 3: isn't it. And today Labour put out a press release complaining, 894 00:46:07,280 --> 00:46:10,120 Speaker 3: as we've just spoken to him, complaining about one hundred 895 00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:14,160 Speaker 3: and forty two thousand dollars of wasteful government spending. Talk 896 00:46:14,200 --> 00:46:18,480 Speaker 3: about being whacked with the irony stick. Labour's Tanga Utziketti 897 00:46:18,560 --> 00:46:21,000 Speaker 3: had a point, though, we spent all this money on 898 00:46:21,080 --> 00:46:24,080 Speaker 3: a hotline for road cones, and only a handful of 899 00:46:24,120 --> 00:46:27,160 Speaker 3: the cases that were investigated were actually breaking the rules, 900 00:46:27,600 --> 00:46:32,000 Speaker 3: so wasted money. Yes, you hire people to sit there 901 00:46:32,200 --> 00:46:35,719 Speaker 3: answering phones about road cones and you've wasted money. And 902 00:46:35,760 --> 00:46:38,359 Speaker 3: the press release said this, I want to quote it. 903 00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:42,680 Speaker 3: Not only was it virtually unused this is the hotline, 904 00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:46,319 Speaker 3: but the government also couldn't say how many cones it 905 00:46:46,400 --> 00:46:50,719 Speaker 3: resulted removing. He then broke down great work from him, 906 00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:54,200 Speaker 3: by the way, breaks down the cost per cone complaint 907 00:46:54,520 --> 00:46:57,160 Speaker 3: one hundred and thirty six dollars fifteen for every one 908 00:46:57,200 --> 00:47:00,759 Speaker 3: of the one thousand complaints that were logged. Excellent work, 909 00:47:00,800 --> 00:47:04,000 Speaker 3: and I mean this, it's fantastic. But where was this 910 00:47:04,080 --> 00:47:07,360 Speaker 3: guy in this logic when we were racking up the 911 00:47:07,400 --> 00:47:10,360 Speaker 3: debt and spending like drunken sailors. Where was this guy 912 00:47:10,760 --> 00:47:14,359 Speaker 3: and this attitude during the COVID years? But also, this 913 00:47:14,440 --> 00:47:18,239 Speaker 3: guy and this attitude will disappear into thin air once 914 00:47:18,239 --> 00:47:20,719 Speaker 3: they're back into government again. You can be sure of that. 915 00:47:21,120 --> 00:47:25,360 Speaker 3: Like Homer into a bush, he'll slither away unnoticed. You see, 916 00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:28,400 Speaker 3: this is politics, where we elect people to spend our money, 917 00:47:28,880 --> 00:47:30,960 Speaker 3: and then we elect different people who say that they 918 00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:33,480 Speaker 3: will stop spending so much of our money, and so 919 00:47:33,560 --> 00:47:35,880 Speaker 3: on and so on, until one day all of the 920 00:47:35,880 --> 00:47:37,799 Speaker 3: people have spent all of the money and we wake 921 00:47:37,880 --> 00:47:42,080 Speaker 3: up broke, Ryan Bridge five twenty six. If you travel 922 00:47:42,120 --> 00:47:45,640 Speaker 3: without travel insurance, it's a very bad idea. And Southern 923 00:47:45,680 --> 00:47:48,080 Speaker 3: Cross Today has put out a list of the most 924 00:47:48,320 --> 00:47:50,439 Speaker 3: you know how Spotify does a rap thing, and it's 925 00:47:50,440 --> 00:47:54,320 Speaker 3: like your top five best songs they've put out. Instead 926 00:47:54,320 --> 00:47:56,399 Speaker 3: of your top five best songs, it's like your top 927 00:47:56,440 --> 00:48:00,680 Speaker 3: five medical emergencies abroad that require you to have and 928 00:48:00,800 --> 00:48:02,680 Speaker 3: it would leave you in a financial ditch if you 929 00:48:02,680 --> 00:48:05,520 Speaker 3: didn't have insurance. So some of them. Two hundred and 930 00:48:05,520 --> 00:48:08,560 Speaker 3: twenty thousand dollars goes to one person who claimed for 931 00:48:08,640 --> 00:48:13,160 Speaker 3: a COVID illness while holidaying in Singapore. Six hundred and 932 00:48:13,239 --> 00:48:16,120 Speaker 3: forty two thousand dollars, someone had an illness in Italy. 933 00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:20,160 Speaker 3: Ninety five grand for a fractured hip in India. But 934 00:48:20,280 --> 00:48:22,319 Speaker 3: the one that takes the cake, and it's a very 935 00:48:22,360 --> 00:48:25,359 Speaker 3: sad case by the sound of it, although apparently things 936 00:48:25,360 --> 00:48:30,000 Speaker 3: that they're doing okay. Four million dollars. This is one 937 00:48:30,160 --> 00:48:34,759 Speaker 3: claim four million dollars for a premature baby who was 938 00:48:34,800 --> 00:48:40,759 Speaker 3: born unexpectedly and early, obviously overseas. Guess where America. So 939 00:48:40,920 --> 00:48:43,600 Speaker 3: basically the moral of the story gets some travel insurance 940 00:48:43,600 --> 00:48:46,920 Speaker 3: this summer twenty seven, after five News Talk, z'd. 941 00:48:46,719 --> 00:48:51,200 Speaker 6: Be you Love. 942 00:48:54,760 --> 00:48:58,680 Speaker 2: To Day's newsmakers talk to Ryan First, Ryan Bridge on 943 00:48:58,760 --> 00:49:02,520 Speaker 2: hither Dupissy Eleandre with One New Zealand and the power 944 00:49:02,560 --> 00:49:04,799 Speaker 2: of satellite mobile news Talk, said B. 945 00:49:08,680 --> 00:49:10,759 Speaker 3: Twenty five away from the six newswork, said B. On 946 00:49:10,800 --> 00:49:13,400 Speaker 3: your Wednesday evening, Jack came and Jordan William's standing by 947 00:49:13,480 --> 00:49:15,719 Speaker 3: for the huddle in just a few seconds from now. 948 00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:20,920 Speaker 3: We will also talk the Bondi story and the two 949 00:49:21,040 --> 00:49:24,640 Speaker 3: terrorists who went to the Philippines. What on earth were 950 00:49:24,680 --> 00:49:27,160 Speaker 3: they doing there? Is they're a nicest training camp in 951 00:49:27,200 --> 00:49:29,319 Speaker 3: the Philippines that we should know about. We'll discuss that 952 00:49:29,320 --> 00:49:32,440 Speaker 3: in just a second. Christmas is not far away, as 953 00:49:32,480 --> 00:49:35,400 Speaker 3: you know. And Brad Olsen over at in for metrics, 954 00:49:35,440 --> 00:49:37,400 Speaker 3: he's come up with some numbers on how much the 955 00:49:37,640 --> 00:49:40,799 Speaker 3: Christmas menu, the Christmas meal on Christmas Day is going 956 00:49:40,840 --> 00:49:44,080 Speaker 3: to cost you. So they have the same menu every year, 957 00:49:44,200 --> 00:49:47,720 Speaker 3: and those same items they don't change, but the price does. 958 00:49:48,120 --> 00:49:49,680 Speaker 3: He said, this year it's going to cost us an 959 00:49:49,680 --> 00:49:53,320 Speaker 3: extra twelve to eighteen percent on last year to feed 960 00:49:53,440 --> 00:49:58,160 Speaker 3: the mounds of our family members. Increase equates to about 961 00:49:58,280 --> 00:50:02,600 Speaker 3: thirty to fifty seven dollars extra for the overall cost 962 00:50:02,640 --> 00:50:06,680 Speaker 3: of the meal. The barbecue meal option is the most 963 00:50:06,760 --> 00:50:09,879 Speaker 3: expensive overall, coming in at around three hundred and two 964 00:50:09,960 --> 00:50:13,799 Speaker 3: dollars for a family, and that is up from up 965 00:50:13,800 --> 00:50:17,799 Speaker 3: to three hundred and eighty dollars. The roast meal is 966 00:50:18,520 --> 00:50:20,680 Speaker 3: now more than two hundred dollars for the first time 967 00:50:20,760 --> 00:50:22,560 Speaker 3: for a mant that's up from one hundred and seventy 968 00:50:22,600 --> 00:50:25,880 Speaker 3: eight dollars last year. So the total including snacks and 969 00:50:25,960 --> 00:50:28,640 Speaker 3: dessert and all that stuff, two hundred and seventy five 970 00:50:28,680 --> 00:50:33,120 Speaker 3: dollars is very expensive now. I noticed just recently gone out. 971 00:50:33,160 --> 00:50:35,080 Speaker 3: I've been out, been lucky enough to go out for 972 00:50:35,160 --> 00:50:38,920 Speaker 3: a couple of dinners with some friends and no one's 973 00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:42,799 Speaker 3: drinking these days alcohol And if you look at your boy, 974 00:50:42,800 --> 00:50:45,520 Speaker 3: does it make a difference where when you look at 975 00:50:45,520 --> 00:50:47,279 Speaker 3: the bill at the end of the meal, whether there's 976 00:50:47,320 --> 00:50:50,040 Speaker 3: boozse involved or not. So I think a Christmas just 977 00:50:50,120 --> 00:50:53,160 Speaker 3: either does it will make it so much cheaper. Just 978 00:50:53,239 --> 00:50:56,440 Speaker 3: do food or just do booze one or the other. 979 00:50:56,560 --> 00:50:58,879 Speaker 3: But it'll be a lot cheaper either way. Twenty three 980 00:50:58,880 --> 00:51:02,560 Speaker 3: away from six, I am bridge so investigators in Australia 981 00:51:02,600 --> 00:51:05,560 Speaker 3: looking very closely now at these suspected bond I shooters 982 00:51:05,560 --> 00:51:08,120 Speaker 3: and their recent trip to the Philippines spent most of 983 00:51:08,200 --> 00:51:11,239 Speaker 3: November there, they traveled to a region that's known to 984 00:51:11,280 --> 00:51:15,440 Speaker 3: be a hotbed of Islamic extremism. Doctor Clark Jones, an 985 00:51:15,520 --> 00:51:20,120 Speaker 3: expert on extremism, also worked in Philippine prisons and joins 986 00:51:20,200 --> 00:51:24,600 Speaker 3: me this evening, good evening, good evening. What do we 987 00:51:24,680 --> 00:51:28,279 Speaker 3: need to know about Islamic extremism in the Philippines And 988 00:51:28,360 --> 00:51:31,920 Speaker 3: are the ISIS training camps there? What's going on? 989 00:51:33,120 --> 00:51:36,240 Speaker 23: We've got to be careful, you know, how we expand 990 00:51:36,280 --> 00:51:39,680 Speaker 23: this I think Look, I would say I wouldn't class 991 00:51:39,680 --> 00:51:42,040 Speaker 23: it as a hotbed for filing the streamism any longer. 992 00:51:42,440 --> 00:51:46,280 Speaker 23: There's been some very successful operations by the Armed Forces 993 00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:50,239 Speaker 23: of the Philippines, the Philippine National Police and foreign counterparts 994 00:51:50,400 --> 00:51:55,040 Speaker 23: at addressing the threat of terrorism. That said, for my 995 00:51:55,160 --> 00:51:57,799 Speaker 23: current experience, I still work in the prison system there, 996 00:51:58,960 --> 00:52:00,759 Speaker 23: and from what I know of that there are still 997 00:52:00,800 --> 00:52:05,200 Speaker 23: active cells in the Philippines, such as Islaming State East 998 00:52:05,239 --> 00:52:11,239 Speaker 23: Asia ABISIF and other small elements operating. So when there 999 00:52:11,320 --> 00:52:15,280 Speaker 23: was a connection to the recent atrocities or terrorist attack 1000 00:52:15,320 --> 00:52:20,279 Speaker 23: in Bondi. I was well surprised there was some sort 1001 00:52:20,320 --> 00:52:24,719 Speaker 23: of link to the Philippines, but not surprised that terrorism 1002 00:52:24,800 --> 00:52:27,160 Speaker 23: is probably still active, but not to the scale that 1003 00:52:27,640 --> 00:52:29,719 Speaker 23: I've heard in some media sources calling it a hot 1004 00:52:29,760 --> 00:52:30,520 Speaker 23: bed for terrorism. 1005 00:52:30,680 --> 00:52:34,640 Speaker 3: Right when you say active, what do you mean, oh, 1006 00:52:34,719 --> 00:52:35,080 Speaker 3: that they. 1007 00:52:35,040 --> 00:52:42,200 Speaker 23: Still still have the ideological will to attack government forces. 1008 00:52:43,360 --> 00:52:45,720 Speaker 23: Last year, I think there were twenty one small scale 1009 00:52:45,800 --> 00:52:50,360 Speaker 23: attacks in by various groups in the Philippines. I know 1010 00:52:50,840 --> 00:52:54,239 Speaker 23: that it's with some that are incarcerated, they're still very, 1011 00:52:54,360 --> 00:52:58,040 Speaker 23: very active, So they still have a will to cause harm, 1012 00:52:58,160 --> 00:53:02,840 Speaker 23: to cause terrorists violence. So you know that hasn't that 1013 00:53:02,920 --> 00:53:06,440 Speaker 23: hasn't gone away. But the Philippines is different from some 1014 00:53:06,600 --> 00:53:11,080 Speaker 23: other countries in that it's it's very socio economic driven 1015 00:53:11,200 --> 00:53:17,160 Speaker 23: rather than religious driven. There's a lot of people that 1016 00:53:17,280 --> 00:53:19,239 Speaker 23: haves and the haves not. You know, people a lot 1017 00:53:19,239 --> 00:53:24,399 Speaker 23: of inequality of those in Muslim inda now, so there 1018 00:53:24,400 --> 00:53:28,560 Speaker 23: are different drivers. It's entwined with criminal behavior, quitting up 1019 00:53:28,560 --> 00:53:32,760 Speaker 23: for ransom, so forth, clan conflict. So it's not straightforward 1020 00:53:32,840 --> 00:53:36,279 Speaker 23: just to talk about extremism, radicalization and the terror. 1021 00:53:36,480 --> 00:53:36,840 Speaker 1: Terrorism. 1022 00:53:36,920 --> 00:53:40,120 Speaker 3: What we know about really appreciate that. Thanks to you analysis, 1023 00:53:40,120 --> 00:53:43,080 Speaker 3: Doctor Clark Jones. Reshaped Justice Group has spent time in 1024 00:53:43,120 --> 00:53:45,800 Speaker 3: Philippine prisons. It is twenty one minutes away from Sex 1025 00:53:46,600 --> 00:53:47,359 Speaker 3: the Huddle with. 1026 00:53:47,400 --> 00:53:50,560 Speaker 2: New Zealand Southeast International Realty, a name you can trust 1027 00:53:50,640 --> 00:53:52,719 Speaker 2: locally and globally. 1028 00:53:52,320 --> 00:53:54,160 Speaker 3: On Thehuddle of Tonight. Jack Tame, host of Q and 1029 00:53:54,239 --> 00:53:57,839 Speaker 3: A on Saturday mornings here on News Talk ZIB Jack, 1030 00:53:58,000 --> 00:54:01,879 Speaker 3: Good afternoon to you. Hi our Jordan Williams as west 1031 00:54:01,920 --> 00:54:02,960 Speaker 3: Well from the Taxpayers Union. 1032 00:54:03,000 --> 00:54:04,719 Speaker 12: Hey, Jordan, hallo, you too. 1033 00:54:05,239 --> 00:54:08,360 Speaker 3: We'll start with the mixed skimming sentence. So nine months 1034 00:54:08,400 --> 00:54:11,960 Speaker 3: home detention. Jordan, did you expect more? Yeah? 1035 00:54:11,960 --> 00:54:12,279 Speaker 1: I did. 1036 00:54:12,960 --> 00:54:16,040 Speaker 12: I can't believe it, you know, ten years of or 1037 00:54:16,120 --> 00:54:20,080 Speaker 12: it admitted ten years of offending. Of course, being it 1038 00:54:20,120 --> 00:54:22,880 Speaker 12: looks like the judges got to eighteen months in prisonment 1039 00:54:22,920 --> 00:54:25,080 Speaker 12: because that's less than two years. The judge has a 1040 00:54:25,120 --> 00:54:28,600 Speaker 12: discretion to make that home detention, and by doing that, 1041 00:54:29,040 --> 00:54:32,640 Speaker 12: the sentence is then halved because if you are sentenced 1042 00:54:32,640 --> 00:54:35,479 Speaker 12: to eighteen months in prison, you're automatically out in half 1043 00:54:35,520 --> 00:54:38,440 Speaker 12: the time. So when they convert it to home detention, 1044 00:54:38,640 --> 00:54:40,799 Speaker 12: it is halved. I think that most of these the 1045 00:54:40,840 --> 00:54:45,960 Speaker 12: Islanders would be shocked how lenient our sentences are on 1046 00:54:46,120 --> 00:54:50,440 Speaker 12: his favor. It's a first offense, But I'd argue, someone 1047 00:54:50,600 --> 00:54:54,719 Speaker 12: in such a position of power and authority, what a 1048 00:54:54,760 --> 00:54:58,920 Speaker 12: perfect example to be made, an example of you know 1049 00:54:58,960 --> 00:55:03,920 Speaker 12: what you'd you know, ten years of awful, awful Kenny 1050 00:55:03,960 --> 00:55:06,440 Speaker 12: Paorn and Beast Reality and what's the punishment? 1051 00:55:06,480 --> 00:55:07,640 Speaker 1: Go home and watch Netflix. 1052 00:55:07,719 --> 00:55:09,279 Speaker 12: I think it's disgusting. 1053 00:55:09,000 --> 00:55:11,000 Speaker 3: Jack, a lot of you can imagine what people are 1054 00:55:11,000 --> 00:55:13,960 Speaker 3: saying or the text machine Jack and the fact that 1055 00:55:14,000 --> 00:55:16,719 Speaker 3: he was a police officer, they say, is kind of 1056 00:55:16,719 --> 00:55:18,440 Speaker 3: a reason to not put you know, he would be 1057 00:55:18,440 --> 00:55:20,040 Speaker 3: a target if you put him in prison. 1058 00:55:20,760 --> 00:55:23,319 Speaker 24: Well, I mean, there are mechanisms in prison that can 1059 00:55:23,360 --> 00:55:27,800 Speaker 24: provide additional protection to inmates. I was personally very surprised, 1060 00:55:27,960 --> 00:55:30,960 Speaker 24: but I had just I think, going into today, I 1061 00:55:31,040 --> 00:55:33,719 Speaker 24: was expecting a custodial sentence and thought that would be that, 1062 00:55:33,920 --> 00:55:36,279 Speaker 24: and that obviously wasn't the case. But I mean, I 1063 00:55:37,360 --> 00:55:39,799 Speaker 24: suppose the one, the one I've got a nine months 1064 00:55:39,800 --> 00:55:43,719 Speaker 24: old who's screaming, I'm sorry. I suppose the one countermeasure 1065 00:55:43,719 --> 00:55:49,000 Speaker 24: I would say is that his reputation is destroyed, his 1066 00:55:49,160 --> 00:55:52,880 Speaker 24: career is destroyed, his prospects of future employment are destroyed. 1067 00:55:52,920 --> 00:55:54,960 Speaker 24: He probably feels like he can't be seen in public, 1068 00:55:55,160 --> 00:55:57,160 Speaker 24: and I suppose those are all kind of, you know, 1069 00:55:57,239 --> 00:55:59,359 Speaker 24: considerations for the judge in this case as well. 1070 00:56:00,320 --> 00:56:02,560 Speaker 3: Jordan Williams and Jack Tam on the Huddle tonight. We'll 1071 00:56:02,600 --> 00:56:04,879 Speaker 3: be back talk about the road cone hotline that's now 1072 00:56:04,960 --> 00:56:07,239 Speaker 3: dead in the water. It's eighteen away from six. 1073 00:56:08,400 --> 00:56:11,920 Speaker 2: The Huddle with New Zealand Southeby's International Real Team, the 1074 00:56:11,920 --> 00:56:13,640 Speaker 2: only truly global. 1075 00:56:13,280 --> 00:56:16,160 Speaker 3: Brand sixteen to six. Welcome back, Jack Tam and Jordan 1076 00:56:16,160 --> 00:56:19,880 Speaker 3: Williams on the Huddle tonight. Jordan, I don't imagine. Well, actually, 1077 00:56:19,960 --> 00:56:22,719 Speaker 3: do you agree with Labor that this road cone hotline 1078 00:56:22,760 --> 00:56:24,360 Speaker 3: thing was a total waste of money? 1079 00:56:25,040 --> 00:56:27,480 Speaker 12: I really hope Nichola Willis isn't listening, but yes, I 1080 00:56:27,520 --> 00:56:30,720 Speaker 12: totally agree with Labor. It was a total waste of money. 1081 00:56:30,800 --> 00:56:32,920 Speaker 12: Did either of you guys have either of you used it? 1082 00:56:33,200 --> 00:56:33,319 Speaker 6: No? 1083 00:56:34,320 --> 00:56:38,040 Speaker 12: No, if Jack, have you used it? I did use 1084 00:56:38,080 --> 00:56:39,920 Speaker 12: it because I'm one of these people that are triggered 1085 00:56:39,920 --> 00:56:43,080 Speaker 12: by cones. There was a cone keeping me up that night. 1086 00:56:43,200 --> 00:56:45,680 Speaker 12: It was looking at me down from the end of 1087 00:56:45,680 --> 00:56:48,560 Speaker 12: my driveway, so I got up in the middle of 1088 00:56:48,560 --> 00:56:51,400 Speaker 12: the night to use the twenty four hour Cone hotline. 1089 00:56:51,440 --> 00:56:54,080 Speaker 12: But I found it's not actually hotline, it's not twenty 1090 00:56:54,120 --> 00:56:56,960 Speaker 12: four hours. It's just nothing but a web form, totally useless. 1091 00:56:57,239 --> 00:56:58,960 Speaker 12: So I found a better way if you're one of 1092 00:56:58,960 --> 00:57:01,600 Speaker 12: those people worried is just call your local MP. So 1093 00:57:01,640 --> 00:57:04,200 Speaker 12: I just called Brook and tell her about the cones 1094 00:57:04,200 --> 00:57:06,000 Speaker 12: because you know that's what we were told we were getting. 1095 00:57:06,160 --> 00:57:07,920 Speaker 3: Did you think about moving it yourself? 1096 00:57:09,200 --> 00:57:09,359 Speaker 10: Oh? 1097 00:57:09,360 --> 00:57:11,160 Speaker 12: Well, the thing is with cones is that one of 1098 00:57:11,160 --> 00:57:13,200 Speaker 12: those I mean, just talk to the Auckland Mirror. It's 1099 00:57:13,200 --> 00:57:14,280 Speaker 12: emotionally triggering. 1100 00:57:14,440 --> 00:57:14,680 Speaker 10: Ryan. 1101 00:57:14,880 --> 00:57:18,000 Speaker 12: You know, you shouldn't joke about these sorts of things. 1102 00:57:18,040 --> 00:57:20,040 Speaker 12: But look, I just just give Brook a call, you know, 1103 00:57:20,120 --> 00:57:24,240 Speaker 12: two seven three zero zero six six, and you know, 1104 00:57:24,360 --> 00:57:25,320 Speaker 12: just give. 1105 00:57:25,920 --> 00:57:29,360 Speaker 3: That's not it, that's not an actual number, right, No, 1106 00:57:29,480 --> 00:57:36,280 Speaker 3: of course, okay, Jack. Do you think because the problem 1107 00:57:36,320 --> 00:57:39,640 Speaker 3: with the road cones that I think the act Party 1108 00:57:39,680 --> 00:57:42,080 Speaker 3: and the Coalition was trying to address is that people 1109 00:57:42,120 --> 00:57:44,520 Speaker 3: felt like they were completely powerless, that they were taking 1110 00:57:44,520 --> 00:57:47,280 Speaker 3: over the streets, and so you give people a hot line, 1111 00:57:47,280 --> 00:57:51,000 Speaker 3: a button depress, go and relieve your stresses. It was 1112 00:57:51,040 --> 00:57:53,600 Speaker 3: a form, not a hot line. Or whatever it was. Yeah, 1113 00:57:54,960 --> 00:57:58,560 Speaker 3: but at what cost. I mean, the latest numbers that I've. 1114 00:57:58,440 --> 00:58:00,919 Speaker 24: Seen today and maybe the minute to can upgrade these 1115 00:58:01,240 --> 00:58:04,520 Speaker 24: were it up until September, it had cost us almost 1116 00:58:04,520 --> 00:58:07,080 Speaker 24: one hundred and fifty thousand dollars as taxpayers. So if 1117 00:58:07,120 --> 00:58:10,320 Speaker 24: you break it down per complaint, Labor Reckons, it's about 1118 00:58:10,320 --> 00:58:13,760 Speaker 24: one hundred and thirty five bucks per complaint, the Greens reckons, 1119 00:58:14,000 --> 00:58:18,240 Speaker 24: it's more than seven hundred dollars per road cone actually moved, 1120 00:58:18,600 --> 00:58:21,600 Speaker 24: and apparently the vast majority, like eighty five or eighty 1121 00:58:21,640 --> 00:58:24,840 Speaker 24: six percent of the complaints that were investigated actually turned 1122 00:58:24,840 --> 00:58:27,800 Speaker 24: out to be totally compliant. So I just think it's 1123 00:58:27,840 --> 00:58:31,640 Speaker 24: hard to seriously make an argument that this has been 1124 00:58:31,760 --> 00:58:34,040 Speaker 24: much more than just a performative stunt. And honestly, when 1125 00:58:34,080 --> 00:58:36,920 Speaker 24: it was first introduced, the sense I got was that 1126 00:58:36,920 --> 00:58:39,000 Speaker 24: they were just trying to, you know, kind of piggyback 1127 00:58:39,040 --> 00:58:41,160 Speaker 24: on some of the support that Wayne Brown had had 1128 00:58:41,200 --> 00:58:42,960 Speaker 24: with his road cone messaging, and. 1129 00:58:42,920 --> 00:58:44,840 Speaker 22: They were just trying to have a piece of the pot. 1130 00:58:44,920 --> 00:58:46,640 Speaker 12: He was on the he was on the hotline all 1131 00:58:46,680 --> 00:58:47,200 Speaker 12: day and night. 1132 00:58:47,360 --> 00:58:50,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, one dred All right, Well, when I guess the 1133 00:58:50,760 --> 00:58:54,240 Speaker 3: only point you could make is that it's shown that 1134 00:58:54,880 --> 00:58:57,520 Speaker 3: when people complain about stuff, so people see that there's 1135 00:58:57,520 --> 00:59:01,400 Speaker 3: a problem. And then just because compliant, does that mean 1136 00:59:01,440 --> 00:59:03,720 Speaker 3: that there's nothing to see here, or does that mean 1137 00:59:03,760 --> 00:59:06,320 Speaker 3: that the rules are too stringent and that we shouldn't 1138 00:59:06,320 --> 00:59:08,720 Speaker 3: be having so many road cones in the first place. 1139 00:59:08,800 --> 00:59:11,200 Speaker 12: You know what I'm saying, That would be well, that's 1140 00:59:11,200 --> 00:59:15,120 Speaker 12: exactly the issue. Brooke has otherwise been an outstanding minister. 1141 00:59:15,520 --> 00:59:17,680 Speaker 12: But the real issue is our health and safety laws 1142 00:59:17,840 --> 00:59:20,840 Speaker 12: have this you've got to take as a personal liability 1143 00:59:20,840 --> 00:59:24,040 Speaker 12: on directors, you've got to take all practicable steps, which 1144 00:59:24,080 --> 00:59:27,320 Speaker 12: the courts have interpreted as the industry standard, meaning that 1145 00:59:27,360 --> 00:59:30,040 Speaker 12: you know, the fiftieth percentile. So what that means is 1146 00:59:30,040 --> 00:59:32,800 Speaker 12: that everyone is striving to be higher than average in 1147 00:59:32,880 --> 00:59:35,120 Speaker 12: order to be compliant with the law. So when you 1148 00:59:35,200 --> 00:59:37,960 Speaker 12: have things like road cones, you just slap the rational 1149 00:59:38,000 --> 00:59:40,760 Speaker 12: thing under the law. It's just slapped down as many 1150 00:59:40,800 --> 00:59:45,360 Speaker 12: as you possibly can, because technically half of the roadworks 1151 00:59:45,440 --> 00:59:47,439 Speaker 12: is not compliant with the law because it's not taking 1152 00:59:47,480 --> 00:59:48,959 Speaker 12: all practicable steps to be saved. 1153 00:59:49,000 --> 00:59:49,400 Speaker 3: Exactly. 1154 00:59:49,520 --> 00:59:51,320 Speaker 12: That was the test that needed to be fixed. Not 1155 00:59:52,120 --> 00:59:54,240 Speaker 12: with the greatest respect to my local MP. 1156 00:59:55,080 --> 00:59:59,439 Speaker 3: This Gemmick Jack Susie Wilds the story in Vanity Fair, 1157 01:00:00,840 --> 01:00:03,760 Speaker 3: how can you have like who do you believe? She says? No, Look, 1158 01:00:04,160 --> 01:00:06,200 Speaker 3: everything was taken out of context. And if you read 1159 01:00:06,320 --> 01:00:09,000 Speaker 3: some of what she has said that you know, the 1160 01:00:09,760 --> 01:00:12,640 Speaker 3: not necessarily vanity fear, but the reporting of it has 1161 01:00:13,040 --> 01:00:14,960 Speaker 3: has kind of tipped it on its head a little bit. 1162 01:00:15,000 --> 01:00:17,720 Speaker 3: Do you agree? I? 1163 01:00:17,760 --> 01:00:21,440 Speaker 24: Look, I thought, okay, what could the context possibly be 1164 01:00:21,640 --> 01:00:24,560 Speaker 24: for these quotes? And I'm not sure that the detail 1165 01:00:24,680 --> 01:00:28,920 Speaker 24: she's given around them fundamentally changes the sensational nature of 1166 01:00:29,360 --> 01:00:31,439 Speaker 24: what she said. I mean, I think what she said 1167 01:00:31,600 --> 01:00:35,200 Speaker 24: is pretty extraordinary, to be honest, and I'm surprised that 1168 01:00:35,280 --> 01:00:38,520 Speaker 24: someone has experienced as her would put herself up for 1169 01:00:38,560 --> 01:00:42,280 Speaker 24: an interview with an outfit like vanity fear, making, you know, 1170 01:00:43,560 --> 01:00:46,600 Speaker 24: regardless of the context, making comments where she compares the 1171 01:00:46,600 --> 01:00:50,479 Speaker 24: president to having an alcoholics personality and not expect those 1172 01:00:50,480 --> 01:00:53,640 Speaker 24: comments to be, you know, to spread like wildfire. I mean, 1173 01:00:53,680 --> 01:00:57,000 Speaker 24: it seems like the epitome of naivety to me. That 1174 01:00:57,400 --> 01:01:00,640 Speaker 24: being said, you know, I actually kind of understand the 1175 01:01:00,680 --> 01:01:03,960 Speaker 24: point she's making with the alcoholics personality. 1176 01:01:03,440 --> 01:01:04,840 Speaker 3: And I don't know how she intended it to. 1177 01:01:04,760 --> 01:01:07,160 Speaker 24: Be quite as quite as critical as it as it's 1178 01:01:07,200 --> 01:01:09,760 Speaker 24: come off. But yeah, I just I just can't imagine 1179 01:01:09,760 --> 01:01:12,000 Speaker 24: how you're going into into an interview with Nity Fear 1180 01:01:12,080 --> 01:01:14,440 Speaker 24: say something like that and they're not expected to spread 1181 01:01:14,440 --> 01:01:15,000 Speaker 24: around the world. 1182 01:01:15,120 --> 01:01:17,360 Speaker 3: Maybe she did. Maybe it's all a plot, you know, 1183 01:01:17,400 --> 01:01:20,960 Speaker 3: and to go after the fourth of State, Jordan, did 1184 01:01:20,960 --> 01:01:23,320 Speaker 3: you see the comments that she made? What did you make? 1185 01:01:24,440 --> 01:01:27,400 Speaker 12: It was very odd, especially at some sort of level, 1186 01:01:27,440 --> 01:01:30,520 Speaker 12: that there wasn't a third party or press secretary or 1187 01:01:30,520 --> 01:01:34,959 Speaker 12: something recording. You know, the current White House is very 1188 01:01:35,000 --> 01:01:37,000 Speaker 12: selective on her they have in that press pool and 1189 01:01:37,040 --> 01:01:40,680 Speaker 12: who they speak to, and really will they toss people 1190 01:01:40,720 --> 01:01:42,720 Speaker 12: out if you are seen to be not just speaking 1191 01:01:42,720 --> 01:01:44,680 Speaker 12: out of turn, but speaking to the wrong people. So 1192 01:01:44,720 --> 01:01:46,800 Speaker 12: it is a little bit of a head scratcher, But 1193 01:01:46,840 --> 01:01:50,280 Speaker 12: it's why it's always why live radio is best, because 1194 01:01:50,280 --> 01:01:53,600 Speaker 12: then it's hard for you know, those those journalists in 1195 01:01:53,640 --> 01:01:57,400 Speaker 12: print to misinterpret or be sneaking with what you've said. 1196 01:01:57,480 --> 01:01:59,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, one hundred percent. It can always be chopped up 1197 01:01:59,600 --> 01:02:02,720 Speaker 3: on mine later, but that's another issue. Hey, just before 1198 01:02:02,720 --> 01:02:05,440 Speaker 3: we go, what's happened with Ruth Jordan? 1199 01:02:05,520 --> 01:02:05,840 Speaker 6: Wise? 1200 01:02:05,920 --> 01:02:07,720 Speaker 12: She pulled out of this debate we got sick of 1201 01:02:07,760 --> 01:02:10,200 Speaker 12: the sick of being jerked around the you know, it 1202 01:02:10,240 --> 01:02:12,440 Speaker 12: turns out the big Challey just be clear, the big 1203 01:02:12,520 --> 01:02:15,360 Speaker 12: challenge was laid down by Nikola Willis old about you 1204 01:02:15,400 --> 01:02:18,560 Speaker 12: any time, anywhere, But apparently it was only where she wanted, 1205 01:02:19,080 --> 01:02:21,400 Speaker 12: the time she wanted them, with the moderator she wanted. 1206 01:02:21,600 --> 01:02:25,480 Speaker 12: And actually it's now become clear what the whole thing 1207 01:02:25,600 --> 01:02:29,200 Speaker 12: of going after Ruth and making the frankly disgraceful comments 1208 01:02:29,240 --> 01:02:32,840 Speaker 12: about you know, training in human misery and trampling on 1209 01:02:32,880 --> 01:02:38,160 Speaker 12: the history of the National Party and Ruth's excellent legacy 1210 01:02:38,200 --> 01:02:43,600 Speaker 12: and economic growth and that soon followed was actually just 1211 01:02:43,640 --> 01:02:47,680 Speaker 12: a distraction to those diabolical numbers yesterday. And so Ruth 1212 01:02:47,760 --> 01:02:48,160 Speaker 12: right Andy. 1213 01:02:48,040 --> 01:02:50,280 Speaker 22: Said, look three, here's three good offers. 1214 01:02:49,960 --> 01:02:52,800 Speaker 12: One which involved you know, your good show and you 1215 01:02:52,960 --> 01:02:58,160 Speaker 12: hosting it, and instead Nichola Willis's she's out there booking 1216 01:02:58,200 --> 01:03:00,640 Speaker 12: her own rooms, booking this, insisting on that. And actually 1217 01:03:00,640 --> 01:03:03,520 Speaker 12: what she has said publicly did not match what or 1218 01:03:03,520 --> 01:03:07,280 Speaker 12: her offices, what her office was saying behind the scenes, 1219 01:03:07,400 --> 01:03:10,000 Speaker 12: as as you know, so as you can tell a 1220 01:03:10,040 --> 01:03:11,320 Speaker 12: little bit irritated, but I. 1221 01:03:11,240 --> 01:03:14,000 Speaker 3: Can hear that as much as you were about the 1222 01:03:14,040 --> 01:03:15,240 Speaker 3: road come previous week. 1223 01:03:15,480 --> 01:03:19,120 Speaker 12: The previous week, the issue was school lunches, and we've 1224 01:03:19,160 --> 01:03:23,160 Speaker 12: now had eleven days of talking about far more important matters, 1225 01:03:23,160 --> 01:03:24,960 Speaker 12: and that is the fiscals of museals. 1226 01:03:25,040 --> 01:03:25,200 Speaker 6: Jack. 1227 01:03:25,240 --> 01:03:26,520 Speaker 3: Did you like the fudge? 1228 01:03:28,800 --> 01:03:29,800 Speaker 24: I did like the fudge? 1229 01:03:29,920 --> 01:03:30,120 Speaker 3: Yep. 1230 01:03:30,200 --> 01:03:31,960 Speaker 24: And and it was you know, I've got to say 1231 01:03:32,000 --> 01:03:36,800 Speaker 24: it was very professionally packed.

Was it not a proper food company? 1234 01:03:44,120 --> 01:03:45,640 Speaker 12: Were the proper food company do it? 1235 01:03:45,640 --> 01:03:46,200 Speaker 6: But we did. 1236 01:03:46,400 --> 01:03:49,720 Speaker 12: We did repack some of the the something like not 1237 01:03:49,760 --> 01:03:51,960 Speaker 12: the actual fudge, but the boxes were in the boxes 1238 01:03:52,320 --> 01:03:54,760 Speaker 12: we repacked and it was all hands on deck. 1239 01:03:55,040 --> 01:03:55,720 Speaker 3: Okay, very good. 1240 01:03:55,720 --> 01:03:57,520 Speaker 12: I lost track how many days ago it was. 1241 01:03:57,760 --> 01:04:00,240 Speaker 3: Jordan Williams, Jack tame on the huddle. Thanks guys. It 1242 01:04:00,400 --> 01:04:03,040 Speaker 3: is eight minutes away from six News Talks VB. 1243 01:04:04,600 --> 01:04:07,880 Speaker 2: It's the Heather Duper c Allen Drive Full Show podcast 1244 01:04:08,000 --> 01:04:11,280 Speaker 2: on iHeartRadio powered by News TALKSB. 1245 01:04:12,960 --> 01:04:15,720 Speaker 3: Five to six News Talks MB. A couple of things 1246 01:04:15,720 --> 01:04:17,720 Speaker 3: to update. We're about to get into the business hour, 1247 01:04:17,880 --> 01:04:19,800 Speaker 3: and so in keeping with that theme, I've got a 1248 01:04:19,840 --> 01:04:21,960 Speaker 3: couple of things to get your across business wise. The 1249 01:04:22,000 --> 01:04:24,440 Speaker 3: current account deficit is doing what we wanted to do. 1250 01:04:24,520 --> 01:04:29,080 Speaker 3: It shrinking, which is great. So the deficit, which ballooned 1251 01:04:29,080 --> 01:04:32,280 Speaker 3: out to nine percent three years ago has now come 1252 01:04:32,360 --> 01:04:35,240 Speaker 3: down to three and a half percent. To June it 1253 01:04:35,400 --> 01:04:38,040 Speaker 3: was three point seven percent of GDP, So we are 1254 01:04:38,040 --> 01:04:40,960 Speaker 3: coming down, coming down, which is great. We are, you know, 1255 01:04:41,440 --> 01:04:45,120 Speaker 3: spending less in the world than we are, well almost 1256 01:04:45,200 --> 01:04:47,640 Speaker 3: spending less in the world than we are earning overseas, 1257 01:04:48,160 --> 01:04:51,320 Speaker 3: which is good for us well, good for our exporters obviously, 1258 01:04:51,320 --> 01:04:53,880 Speaker 3: but it's also good for the credit rating agencies. You know, 1259 01:04:53,920 --> 01:04:56,440 Speaker 3: when they write up their reports, they say, hey, we 1260 01:04:56,480 --> 01:04:59,240 Speaker 3: don't like that and we don't like you being too exposed. 1261 01:04:59,520 --> 01:05:01,200 Speaker 3: So the fact that it's drinking is a good thing. 1262 01:05:02,240 --> 01:05:05,560 Speaker 3: Freightways is pushing further into Australia fight. This is a 1263 01:05:05,560 --> 01:05:09,760 Speaker 3: great success story for New Zealand, so expanded. They've already 1264 01:05:09,760 --> 01:05:11,720 Speaker 3: bought one. You might remember a couple of years ago 1265 01:05:11,800 --> 01:05:15,680 Speaker 3: Freightways bought a business in Australia. This was back in 1266 01:05:15,720 --> 01:05:19,360 Speaker 3: twenty twenty two, Allied Express. So they've been on the 1267 01:05:19,480 --> 01:05:22,080 Speaker 3: hunt and they've made no secret of this, on the 1268 01:05:22,200 --> 01:05:25,840 Speaker 3: hunt for a business across the Tasman another freight business 1269 01:05:25,880 --> 01:05:30,200 Speaker 3: and they have found one in Victoria, VT. Freight Express, 1270 01:05:30,520 --> 01:05:34,440 Speaker 3: and they have purchased that, subject to some conditions being met, 1271 01:05:34,480 --> 01:05:37,680 Speaker 3: will happen and go through in January. And so they 1272 01:05:37,680 --> 01:05:39,200 Speaker 3: reckon that's going to be a winner for them. They 1273 01:05:39,200 --> 01:05:43,080 Speaker 3: looked at about forty different businesses and appraised them and 1274 01:05:43,200 --> 01:05:45,400 Speaker 3: looked at the books, opened the books, and decided that 1275 01:05:45,520 --> 01:05:48,640 Speaker 3: was the one to go with. In America, you know, 1276 01:05:48,680 --> 01:05:51,320 Speaker 3: the Netflix deal, and I'm still waiting on what, you know, 1277 01:05:51,400 --> 01:05:53,800 Speaker 3: deciding what I should do with those shares, as you'll 1278 01:05:53,800 --> 01:05:57,320 Speaker 3: be keenly aware. But then boss of Netflix, so they've 1279 01:05:57,360 --> 01:05:59,680 Speaker 3: come out with an offer for Warner Brothers, remember, and 1280 01:05:59,720 --> 01:06:02,400 Speaker 3: then Paramount the studio has come out with their own. 1281 01:06:03,200 --> 01:06:06,720 Speaker 3: The Netflix boss is trying to twist your arm if 1282 01:06:06,760 --> 01:06:09,800 Speaker 3: you're a shareholder and is saying, don't worry, We're not 1283 01:06:09,880 --> 01:06:13,560 Speaker 3: going to ditch the movies. So this is the Netflix 1284 01:06:13,600 --> 01:06:18,080 Speaker 3: CEO coming out in saying, because previously this guy has said, 1285 01:06:18,760 --> 01:06:22,880 Speaker 3: you know, cinema is outdated, go stream on Netflix, and 1286 01:06:22,920 --> 01:06:25,520 Speaker 3: now he's saying, don't worry if we if we get 1287 01:06:25,560 --> 01:06:28,439 Speaker 3: Warner Brothers, we'll keep putting things in the movies. Does 1288 01:06:28,440 --> 01:06:30,600 Speaker 3: anyone you know that does anyone believe that or does 1289 01:06:30,680 --> 01:06:32,640 Speaker 3: that sound like a guy who's just trying to take 1290 01:06:32,680 --> 01:06:35,760 Speaker 3: over a company and will say anything to make that happen. 1291 01:06:36,480 --> 01:06:39,600 Speaker 3: I think the latter's coming up to six on Newstalk 1292 01:06:39,680 --> 01:06:41,440 Speaker 3: Setpe Business next. 1293 01:06:44,800 --> 01:06:48,600 Speaker 1: What's up, what's down?

Banks 1307 01:07:25,400 --> 01:07:28,040 Speaker 3: will no longer be required to hold as much capital 1308 01:07:28,080 --> 01:07:31,440 Speaker 3: in case they run into trouble, get into a tight spot. 1309 01:07:31,680 --> 01:07:34,160 Speaker 3: Those were the rules that Adrian or put in place, 1310 01:07:34,200 --> 01:07:37,120 Speaker 3: you'll remember it was for a worst case scenario, but 1311 01:07:37,240 --> 01:07:39,680 Speaker 3: the result was higher funding costs for banks, which they've 1312 01:07:39,720 --> 01:07:43,720 Speaker 3: been telling us about worst competition for customers. Mark Wiltshire 1313 01:07:43,880 --> 01:07:46,640 Speaker 3: is the chief executive at the Cooperative Bank and joins 1314 01:07:46,640 --> 01:07:50,200 Speaker 3: me this evening.

Or does it? 1316 01:07:54,440 --> 01:07:57,640 Speaker 25: Yeah, it does a couple of things. Really, it's good 1317 01:07:57,640 --> 01:08:01,000 Speaker 25: news for smaller banks. Basically, low as the amount of 1318 01:08:01,120 --> 01:08:04,360 Speaker 25: capital we have to set aside in case of emergency. 1319 01:08:04,480 --> 01:08:07,320 Speaker 25: So you want banks to hold some capital, but too 1320 01:08:07,360 --> 01:08:09,400 Speaker 25: much is a drag and a cost and a constraint 1321 01:08:09,680 --> 01:08:13,640 Speaker 25: on getting out there and competing for customers. So you 1322 01:08:13,680 --> 01:08:16,360 Speaker 25: want to encourage competition. So for us, it allows us 1323 01:08:16,439 --> 01:08:19,360 Speaker 25: takes that constraint away by lowing that amount of capital 1324 01:08:19,400 --> 01:08:21,120 Speaker 25: so we can get out there and have more appetite 1325 01:08:21,120 --> 01:08:21,599 Speaker 25: for growth. 1326 01:08:21,760 --> 01:08:24,599 Speaker 3: The total is three point four billion less. I'm told, 1327 01:08:24,640 --> 01:08:26,920 Speaker 3: how much less would the co Op Bank need to 1328 01:08:27,280 --> 01:08:29,160 Speaker 3: or be required to hold. 1329 01:08:29,920 --> 01:08:33,599 Speaker 25: Yeah, it's quite significant. So in sort of percentage terms, 1330 01:08:34,280 --> 01:08:36,840 Speaker 25: the old rate was about seventeen percent of the capital 1331 01:08:36,960 --> 01:08:39,680 Speaker 25: ration and it drops down to fourteen, so quite a 1332 01:08:39,760 --> 01:08:43,800 Speaker 25: significant reduction for us we'll run the numbers on exactly 1333 01:08:44,560 --> 01:08:46,240 Speaker 25: where we want to land because we do our own 1334 01:08:46,240 --> 01:08:48,880 Speaker 25: assessment as well. Now we've got this, but that lower 1335 01:08:48,920 --> 01:08:50,080 Speaker 25: minimum is a big help. 1336 01:08:50,280 --> 01:08:53,320 Speaker 3: Does it And does it mean that the system is 1337 01:08:53,400 --> 01:08:54,040 Speaker 3: more risky? 1338 01:08:55,240 --> 01:08:58,160 Speaker 25: No, I think it's achieving the right balance. And they've 1339 01:08:58,160 --> 01:09:01,439 Speaker 25: aligned this with Australia as well, very consistent with the 1340 01:09:01,479 --> 01:09:04,439 Speaker 25: APPERA rules. So they were pretty high before, so I 1341 01:09:04,439 --> 01:09:08,519 Speaker 25: think they've come back to a better level. And it's 1342 01:09:08,560 --> 01:09:11,200 Speaker 25: that balance of you want resilience but you don't want 1343 01:09:11,240 --> 01:09:13,200 Speaker 25: to be too much of a cost that gets passed 1344 01:09:13,200 --> 01:09:16,320 Speaker 25: on to customers. So this should flow through to customers 1345 01:09:16,600 --> 01:09:20,280 Speaker 25: by allowing more competition and allowing particularly domestic banks to 1346 01:09:20,479 --> 01:09:21,120 Speaker 25: challenge more. 1347 01:09:21,560 --> 01:09:24,120 Speaker 3: So yeah, on does that mean mark that we will? 1348 01:09:24,560 --> 01:09:27,599 Speaker 3: Does it benefit smaller banks more so than the bigger 1349 01:09:27,640 --> 01:09:30,679 Speaker 3: Australian ones or is it everybody's on an even keel. 1350 01:09:31,439 --> 01:09:33,960 Speaker 25: It does benefit the overall the total market, but I 1351 01:09:33,960 --> 01:09:36,639 Speaker 25: think it particularly benefits the smaller banks. Not everyone will 1352 01:09:36,680 --> 01:09:39,200 Speaker 25: be happy, but for us, we think it's a really 1353 01:09:39,240 --> 01:09:42,760 Speaker 25: good positive step and we certainly think it benefits us 1354 01:09:43,080 --> 01:09:45,960 Speaker 25: materially and allows us to actually go out there and 1355 01:09:46,040 --> 01:09:49,080 Speaker 25: grow our mortgages more and compete harder for those mortgages. 1356 01:09:49,240 --> 01:09:51,360 Speaker 3: Are you going to get When you say compete, do 1357 01:09:51,400 --> 01:09:53,639 Speaker 3: you mean you'll give us cheaper mortgage rates? Mark? 1358 01:09:54,040 --> 01:09:55,880 Speaker 25: Yeah, I mean you've got to take into account other 1359 01:09:55,920 --> 01:09:58,400 Speaker 25: things like the overall race environment at any point in time. 1360 01:09:58,760 --> 01:10:01,240 Speaker 25: But it does mean you're taking away some of that 1361 01:10:01,320 --> 01:10:03,640 Speaker 25: costs when you fact I've had into your pricing decisions. 1362 01:10:03,760 --> 01:10:07,719 Speaker 25: So you know, we're in a slightly rising rate environment 1363 01:10:07,760 --> 01:10:11,000 Speaker 25: right now, but now we've hit the largely hit the 1364 01:10:11,000 --> 01:10:14,720 Speaker 25: bottom from expectations, so it doesn't necessarily immediately translate through 1365 01:10:14,760 --> 01:10:17,160 Speaker 25: to the rates today, but it will have that effect overall. 1366 01:10:17,920 --> 01:10:20,960 Speaker 3: Speaking of the increase in rates, we've seen some banks 1367 01:10:21,000 --> 01:10:23,599 Speaker 3: move some haven't You guys have moved on that And 1368 01:10:23,720 --> 01:10:26,200 Speaker 3: does what Arna Brennan say said the other day, does 1369 01:10:26,200 --> 01:10:27,320 Speaker 3: that have any impact on you? 1370 01:10:28,120 --> 01:10:30,040 Speaker 25: It had a bit, So it took a little bit 1371 01:10:30,040 --> 01:10:32,400 Speaker 25: of the heats, but not a lot. So you know, 1372 01:10:32,479 --> 01:10:35,080 Speaker 25: we passed on about half of what those health our 1373 01:10:35,120 --> 01:10:38,160 Speaker 25: rates were rising. They moved up fifty or sixty points. 1374 01:10:38,479 --> 01:10:40,360 Speaker 25: They came back a little bit, but really only at 1375 01:10:40,360 --> 01:10:43,599 Speaker 25: the margin. So we've passed on about thirty points onto 1376 01:10:43,640 --> 01:10:46,679 Speaker 25: customers for fixed rates and that's really important to signal 1377 01:10:46,720 --> 01:10:48,479 Speaker 25: to customers that rates are starting to move up in 1378 01:10:48,520 --> 01:10:51,599 Speaker 25: those longer terms, but still offering a really good committive 1379 01:10:51,640 --> 01:10:52,800 Speaker 25: rates at the short terms as well. 1380 01:10:53,439 --> 01:10:57,080 Speaker 3: Does that mean in your eyes for those longer term 1381 01:10:57,200 --> 01:10:59,960 Speaker 3: rates the only way they are going from here now 1382 01:11:00,160 --> 01:11:00,479 Speaker 3: is up. 1383 01:11:01,720 --> 01:11:04,479 Speaker 25: Well, that's what the market is pricing, and so for 1384 01:11:04,560 --> 01:11:08,040 Speaker 25: banks to offer fixed rates and certainty for customers, they 1385 01:11:08,080 --> 01:11:10,240 Speaker 25: have to hedge those in the interest rate market, and 1386 01:11:10,240 --> 01:11:12,719 Speaker 25: those interest rate markets look at the longer term signals, 1387 01:11:12,720 --> 01:11:14,759 Speaker 25: so they're not looking at what happened in November. 1388 01:11:14,800 --> 01:11:15,439 Speaker 2: They're looking at. 1389 01:11:15,320 --> 01:11:18,120 Speaker 25: What's happening in two three years time. So that outlook 1390 01:11:18,160 --> 01:11:21,599 Speaker 25: is increasing now, and certainly the commentary and the outlook 1391 01:11:21,720 --> 01:11:24,200 Speaker 25: was for that to start increasing. So that's why the 1392 01:11:24,240 --> 01:11:25,599 Speaker 25: longer term rates are starting. 1393 01:11:25,360 --> 01:11:26,000 Speaker 3: To each up. 1394 01:11:26,600 --> 01:11:29,000 Speaker 25: So I think we've if we're not at the bottom, 1395 01:11:29,040 --> 01:11:31,960 Speaker 25: we're somewhere close to it, and we'll wait and see 1396 01:11:31,960 --> 01:11:35,000 Speaker 25: whether there's another ocr castle or not. Certainly the new 1397 01:11:35,000 --> 01:11:38,040 Speaker 25: Reserve Bank governor has left that door open. But we're 1398 01:11:38,560 --> 01:11:41,040 Speaker 25: somewhere near the bottom of that cycle. So the longer 1399 01:11:41,120 --> 01:11:41,920 Speaker 25: term outlooks up. 1400 01:11:42,280 --> 01:11:42,400 Speaker 6: Mark. 1401 01:11:42,439 --> 01:11:44,280 Speaker 3: Appreciate your time.

Remy, 1429 01:13:06,960 --> 01:13:10,120 Speaker 3: good evening. Good evening, right, Let's start with the US 1430 01:13:10,200 --> 01:13:13,880 Speaker 3: tech stocks showing just some signs of weakness. Again, there's 1431 01:13:13,920 --> 01:13:16,599 Speaker 3: this AI bubble fear thing back. 1432 01:13:17,960 --> 01:13:21,800 Speaker 21: Yes, so the market has reacted negatively following a couple 1433 01:13:21,840 --> 01:13:24,759 Speaker 21: of results from some of the most followed AI stocks 1434 01:13:24,800 --> 01:13:27,559 Speaker 21: at the back end of last week. Now, the results 1435 01:13:27,600 --> 01:13:31,200 Speaker 21: themselves were not actually negative, but both Oracle and Broadcom 1436 01:13:31,280 --> 01:13:34,080 Speaker 21: were down over ten percent, and I think that shows 1437 01:13:34,120 --> 01:13:37,360 Speaker 21: that it's quite difficult to deliver against the very high 1438 01:13:37,360 --> 01:13:42,400 Speaker 21: expectations investors place on these AI stocks. Oracle once again 1439 01:13:42,680 --> 01:13:45,960 Speaker 21: raised its capex guidance. I think that spooked investors who 1440 01:13:46,000 --> 01:13:49,679 Speaker 21: were already concerned that they're over investing in AI data 1441 01:13:49,760 --> 01:13:53,839 Speaker 21: centers and the returns that that will generate. Broadcom reported 1442 01:13:53,880 --> 01:13:56,760 Speaker 21: strong numbers and guided to AI chip sales growing more 1443 01:13:56,760 --> 01:13:59,120 Speaker 21: than one hundred and fifty percent next year. But even 1444 01:13:59,160 --> 01:14:02,840 Speaker 21: this level of growth that seemed to disappoint investor expectations. 1445 01:14:03,520 --> 01:14:06,240 Speaker 21: So I think it's likely that we'll see heightened AI 1446 01:14:06,320 --> 01:14:10,519 Speaker 21: scrutiny until these AI investments and revenues start to really 1447 01:14:10,520 --> 01:14:11,360 Speaker 21: prove out. 1448 01:14:11,520 --> 01:14:14,559 Speaker 3: Remy outside of tech and the business of tech. The 1449 01:14:14,880 --> 01:14:17,400 Speaker 3: stocks in the US generally have been a bit softer 1450 01:14:17,479 --> 01:14:19,680 Speaker 3: this week as well. What's going on there? What's driving that? 1451 01:14:20,840 --> 01:14:21,000 Speaker 6: Yees? 1452 01:14:21,080 --> 01:14:24,120 Speaker 21: So, putting the AI fears aside, we have had some 1453 01:14:24,160 --> 01:14:27,280 Speaker 21: slight softness in the US equity markets more broadly, and 1454 01:14:27,320 --> 01:14:30,120 Speaker 21: that's because this week is a big week for US data. 1455 01:14:30,280 --> 01:14:33,280 Speaker 21: We've got key data releases that indicate the shape of 1456 01:14:33,320 --> 01:14:36,919 Speaker 21: the US economy and these can influence the FEDS monetary 1457 01:14:36,920 --> 01:14:39,840 Speaker 21: policy decisions. Now, a lot of that data has actually 1458 01:14:39,920 --> 01:14:44,439 Speaker 21: been delayed following that extended US government shutdown. That's caused 1459 01:14:44,479 --> 01:14:48,080 Speaker 21: some concerns on the data quality, and the market hasn't 1460 01:14:48,120 --> 01:14:50,960 Speaker 21: really been sure what to expect, So that's created some 1461 01:14:51,080 --> 01:14:52,080 Speaker 21: uncertainty in the. 1462 01:14:52,080 --> 01:14:55,920 Speaker 3: Lead up what US started. Do we get this week jobs? 1463 01:14:57,280 --> 01:15:00,920 Speaker 21: Yep, So overnight we had the US Limit report that 1464 01:15:01,080 --> 01:15:04,640 Speaker 21: showed the US job market remains sluggish, but it's not 1465 01:15:04,800 --> 01:15:10,280 Speaker 21: rapidly deteriorating. We also had the US October retail sales, 1466 01:15:10,320 --> 01:15:13,120 Speaker 21: which was a flat red. Now, these two data points 1467 01:15:13,160 --> 01:15:17,080 Speaker 21: didn't cause any material changes to market expectations for interest 1468 01:15:17,160 --> 01:15:20,040 Speaker 21: rate cuts, but we did see the US equity markets 1469 01:15:20,080 --> 01:15:21,280 Speaker 21: slightly softer overnight. 1470 01:15:22,640 --> 01:15:24,280 Speaker 3: Oh sorry, sorry, right, I was. 1471 01:15:24,200 --> 01:15:27,160 Speaker 21: Just gonna say. We also get the USCPI print later 1472 01:15:27,240 --> 01:15:30,120 Speaker 21: this week, which again won't be for a complete period, 1473 01:15:30,520 --> 01:15:32,759 Speaker 21: so we could see markets continuing to be cautious. 1474 01:15:33,120 --> 01:15:36,200 Speaker 3: Roger that back home, We've just spoke to co Op 1475 01:15:36,240 --> 01:15:38,479 Speaker 3: Bank and they've been you know, they were one of 1476 01:15:38,520 --> 01:15:41,320 Speaker 3: the first actually to put their longer term rates back up, 1477 01:15:41,360 --> 01:15:43,679 Speaker 3: and we've seen a couple of banks do that now 1478 01:15:43,800 --> 01:15:46,400 Speaker 3: after that November rbn Z cut. 1479 01:15:48,040 --> 01:15:50,800 Speaker 21: Yeah, that's right. So what's happened since the last cut 1480 01:15:50,840 --> 01:15:53,799 Speaker 21: is that market expectations have actually led to an increase 1481 01:15:53,920 --> 01:15:57,639 Speaker 21: in New Zealand interest rates swaps. That's what flows through 1482 01:15:57,680 --> 01:16:00,200 Speaker 21: to the increase in increases in some of those bank 1483 01:16:00,240 --> 01:16:03,760 Speaker 21: mortgage rates. Now that could potentially pose a bit of 1484 01:16:03,760 --> 01:16:06,799 Speaker 21: a risk to economic growth, but we have had the 1485 01:16:06,840 --> 01:16:09,160 Speaker 21: Reserve Bank governor come out this week with a few 1486 01:16:09,160 --> 01:16:12,960 Speaker 21: comments that has seen some moves lower in swap rates, 1487 01:16:13,479 --> 01:16:15,759 Speaker 21: not quite back to where they were pre the November 1488 01:16:15,760 --> 01:16:19,519 Speaker 21: o CR announcement. But it's also worth mentioning that there's 1489 01:16:19,560 --> 01:16:22,200 Speaker 21: still a relatively high proportion of mortgages that are yet 1490 01:16:22,240 --> 01:16:25,639 Speaker 21: to roll over on to what are still overall lower 1491 01:16:25,680 --> 01:16:26,360 Speaker 21: mortgage rates. 1492 01:16:26,880 --> 01:16:29,320 Speaker 3: Nice one, Remy appreciate that.

It's too late 1500 01:16:46,160 --> 01:16:48,479 Speaker 3: because they've bought it online, but I'm picking it up tonight. 1501 01:16:48,800 --> 01:16:51,880 Speaker 3: So it's called it. It's Torpedo seven. And I was 1502 01:16:51,880 --> 01:16:55,160 Speaker 3: weighing up between Torpedo seven and there's a place called 1503 01:16:55,280 --> 01:16:58,280 Speaker 3: tent Town, which sounds a bit random and it's a 1504 01:16:58,280 --> 01:17:00,280 Speaker 3: bit far away from me, so I didn't bother that, 1505 01:17:00,680 --> 01:17:03,839 Speaker 3: but it was Hunting and Fishing or Torpedo seven. Torpedo 1506 01:17:03,920 --> 01:17:06,880 Speaker 3: seven has won because they've got an early sale they've 1507 01:17:06,880 --> 01:17:09,280 Speaker 3: got their Boxing day sale on already it's half off. 1508 01:17:09,760 --> 01:17:12,599 Speaker 3: So the brand of this tent is a tour couda 1509 01:17:13,000 --> 01:17:18,080 Speaker 3: inflatable medium six person tent.

That's my big question? 1513 01:17:26,800 --> 01:17:29,040 Speaker 3: How do you actually? Do you just flick a switch 1514 01:17:29,080 --> 01:17:31,280 Speaker 3: and automatically does it for you? Or am I going 1515 01:17:31,320 --> 01:17:33,800 Speaker 3: to be there with a bike pump for half of 1516 01:17:33,840 --> 01:17:35,960 Speaker 3: my Saturday morning putting this tent up now. 1517 01:17:36,040 --> 01:17:37,800 Speaker 7: Until the bike pumps are on sale as well, Ryan 1518 01:17:37,800 --> 01:17:39,000 Speaker 7: and you were saying we need to get out and 1519 01:17:39,000 --> 01:17:41,040 Speaker 7: support the economy.

Nine two nine two is the 1523 01:17:46,160 --> 01:17:50,000 Speaker 3: number to text is six twenty news talk TO'DB whether. 1524 01:17:49,760 --> 01:17:53,679 Speaker 2: It's macro micro or just plain economics. It's all on 1525 01:17:53,760 --> 01:17:58,360 Speaker 2: the business hours with Ryan Bridge and Mass Motor Vehicle Insurance. 1526 01:17:58,600 --> 01:18:02,320 Speaker 2: Your futures in good NEWSTALKSB. 1527 01:18:02,080 --> 01:18:04,559 Speaker 3: Six twenty three on News Talks VB. So in terms 1528 01:18:04,560 --> 01:18:07,200 Speaker 3: of the tint We've got loads of feedback on the tent, 1529 01:18:07,360 --> 01:18:09,200 Speaker 3: and the first one that came in is from Clear, 1530 01:18:09,240 --> 01:18:12,120 Speaker 3: and it said Ryan, Ryan, Ryan, No, no, no, you 1531 01:18:12,160 --> 01:18:15,760 Speaker 3: should get a Zimpire tint because I've gone with a 1532 01:18:15,800 --> 01:18:20,599 Speaker 3: Torpedo seven brand, and Clear says this is a terrible idea. However, 1533 01:18:21,120 --> 01:18:23,719 Speaker 3: there are for everyone who says, and there are loads 1534 01:18:23,720 --> 01:18:25,519 Speaker 3: that say you get a Zimpire tint. And I was 1535 01:18:25,560 --> 01:18:28,080 Speaker 3: looking at them because they're nice and big, because I'm 1536 01:18:29,000 --> 01:18:32,080 Speaker 3: tall and these tents are two meters. I think the 1537 01:18:32,160 --> 01:18:34,719 Speaker 3: z Empire ones were like two point two meters tall, 1538 01:18:35,320 --> 01:18:37,479 Speaker 3: so I was very attracted to those, but I've gone 1539 01:18:37,520 --> 01:18:40,639 Speaker 3: with the one that's half off. Anyway, it comes apparently 1540 01:18:40,680 --> 01:18:42,760 Speaker 3: with its own pump, and the pump works great and 1541 01:18:42,800 --> 01:18:44,680 Speaker 3: the tent is great, and everyone says they're having a 1542 01:18:44,680 --> 01:18:47,080 Speaker 3: great time in them. So I think I'm sorted either way. 1543 01:18:48,080 --> 01:18:51,200 Speaker 3: And muzz says, Ryan, if you can't pump it up 1544 01:18:51,240 --> 01:18:53,759 Speaker 3: within five minutes, you need to hand back your man card. 1545 01:18:54,120 --> 01:18:56,000 Speaker 3: So there we go.

Six twenty four. 1548 01:19:01,600 --> 01:19:11,920 Speaker 2: There's no business like show business. 1549 01:19:12,720 --> 01:19:16,200 Speaker 3: Rolling Stones they are calling off plans for a stadium 1550 01:19:16,240 --> 01:19:19,639 Speaker 3: tour of Europe and the UK next year. Gosh does 1551 01:19:19,680 --> 01:19:22,839 Speaker 3: sound ambitious, even saying it doesn't it for the Rolling Stones, 1552 01:19:23,080 --> 01:19:27,200 Speaker 3: apparently because Keith Richards was unable to commit to it now. 1553 01:19:27,240 --> 01:19:31,640 Speaker 3: The tour was never actually like properly or officially announced, 1554 01:19:31,680 --> 01:19:35,559 Speaker 3: but the band spokesperson recently told press that the band 1555 01:19:35,760 --> 01:19:39,880 Speaker 3: was nearly completed, nearly done on a new album and 1556 01:19:39,960 --> 01:19:43,120 Speaker 3: planned on touring next year, so people kind of assumed. 1557 01:19:42,800 --> 01:19:43,320 Speaker 6: It was happening. 1558 01:19:43,439 --> 01:19:48,320 Speaker 3: Keith Richards turns eighty two on Thursday this week, apparently 1559 01:19:48,360 --> 01:19:50,479 Speaker 3: doesn't want to commit to the riggers of a big 1560 01:19:50,520 --> 01:19:53,000 Speaker 3: stadium tour that could take as long as four months. 1561 01:19:53,360 --> 01:19:55,920 Speaker 3: The Stones are toured almost every year since the early 1562 01:19:55,920 --> 01:19:58,840 Speaker 3: two thousands. Of McJagger is also eighty two on wood 1563 01:19:58,920 --> 01:20:02,400 Speaker 3: is seventy eight. Their original drummer, Charlie Watts, died in 1564 01:20:02,439 --> 01:20:05,479 Speaker 3: twenty twenty one. When they were last on tour a 1565 01:20:05,479 --> 01:20:08,040 Speaker 3: couple of years ago, Mick Jagger talked about has the 1566 01:20:08,120 --> 01:20:09,760 Speaker 3: love of being there. 1567 01:20:10,240 --> 01:20:11,439 Speaker 1: I just love doing it. 1568 01:20:11,560 --> 01:20:14,439 Speaker 26: I mean obviously you have to train and you know 1569 01:20:15,080 --> 01:20:19,000 Speaker 26: train your voice and your body and you know, get 1570 01:20:19,200 --> 01:20:21,719 Speaker 26: feel comfortable on the stage and make it your own 1571 01:20:21,880 --> 01:20:25,960 Speaker 26: and all that. But in the end, it's it's that 1572 01:20:26,280 --> 01:20:29,200 Speaker 26: you like doing it and the audience is enjoying it, 1573 01:20:29,240 --> 01:20:31,160 Speaker 26: and you get this back and forth with the audience. 1574 01:20:31,160 --> 01:20:32,280 Speaker 6: You can see they're having your time. 1575 01:20:32,280 --> 01:20:34,760 Speaker 26: You're having good time. That's and it gives you a 1576 01:20:34,760 --> 01:20:37,200 Speaker 26: lot more energy than would have if you're just doing 1577 01:20:37,280 --> 01:20:37,960 Speaker 26: a rehearsal. 1578 01:20:38,760 --> 01:20:40,320 Speaker 3: Well, it would have been great to see them, wouldn't 1579 01:20:40,320 --> 01:20:42,920 Speaker 3: they And we may yet still see them again on tour. 1580 01:20:43,400 --> 01:20:44,400 Speaker 3: You're on news talks, be. 1581 01:20:44,640 --> 01:20:46,559 Speaker 7: Hang on, hang on a minute, right. Keith Richard says 1582 01:20:46,560 --> 01:20:49,080 Speaker 7: he's not up to doing a tour, I mean any 1583 01:20:49,120 --> 01:20:51,519 Speaker 7: other like eighty year old. Sure, I'd be like fine. 1584 01:20:51,560 --> 01:20:55,040 Speaker 7: Keith Richards has smoked enough cigarettes on the stage, littlone 1585 01:20:55,040 --> 01:20:57,120 Speaker 7: all the ones he's smoked off stage, so there's lungs 1586 01:20:57,320 --> 01:21:01,720 Speaker 7: presumably don't exist. He's immune to physical aging and physical 1587 01:21:01,800 --> 01:21:04,000 Speaker 7: riggers and all the abuse that body's gone through. What 1588 01:21:04,160 --> 01:21:06,760 Speaker 7: he can't handle the tiller, he's probably the there of 1589 01:21:06,760 --> 01:21:09,280 Speaker 7: the rolling stones. I would least expect to be unable 1590 01:21:09,280 --> 01:21:10,000 Speaker 7: to handle the tiller. 1591 01:21:10,080 --> 01:21:11,000 Speaker 3: What's this is great? 1592 01:21:11,120 --> 01:21:11,280 Speaker 6: Well? 1593 01:21:11,320 --> 01:21:14,400 Speaker 3: Maybe I mean sadly, maybe it's finally all catching catching. 1594 01:21:14,240 --> 01:21:16,360 Speaker 7: Yes, maybe that's why he can handle it all, is 1595 01:21:16,400 --> 01:21:18,000 Speaker 7: that he actually paces himself really well. 1596 01:21:18,040 --> 01:21:20,200 Speaker 3: It was going to happen one day, wasn't it. But 1597 01:21:20,400 --> 01:21:22,240 Speaker 3: I mean, as I say, hopefully it's just a temporary 1598 01:21:22,240 --> 01:21:25,120 Speaker 3: thing and when he turns eighty three he'll be back 1599 01:21:26,000 --> 01:21:27,960 Speaker 3: up and at him. You're on news Talks, there'd be 1600 01:21:28,080 --> 01:21:31,120 Speaker 3: twenty six after six after the news at six thirty, 1601 01:21:31,200 --> 01:21:33,400 Speaker 3: we are going to talk to Jane Tip Trainey because 1602 01:21:33,400 --> 01:21:36,879 Speaker 3: you might have noticed that the new Reserve Bank Governor 1603 01:21:37,520 --> 01:21:39,800 Speaker 3: Arna Brennan is doing a whole bunch of interviews this 1604 01:21:39,880 --> 01:21:42,280 Speaker 3: week and every time she does a new interview she 1605 01:21:42,320 --> 01:21:45,320 Speaker 3: says something slightly different and everybody goes, oh, is that 1606 01:21:45,360 --> 01:21:48,360 Speaker 3: going to change the swap rates? Hasn't So far the 1607 01:21:48,479 --> 01:21:51,479 Speaker 3: initial statement that she put out changed them. Since then, 1608 01:21:51,520 --> 01:21:53,759 Speaker 3: there's been no real movement. So we'll talk to Janay 1609 01:21:53,880 --> 01:21:56,879 Speaker 3: about whether there'll be any more for the side of Christmas. 1610 01:21:57,320 --> 01:21:59,960 Speaker 3: Highly unlikely, but we'll ask. Also we'll get to gather 1611 01:22:00,040 --> 01:22:02,240 Speaker 3: and gray out of the UK before top of the hour. 1612 01:22:02,400 --> 01:22:27,160 Speaker 2: All ahead, everything from SMS to the big corporates, the 1613 01:22:27,320 --> 01:22:31,720 Speaker 2: Business Hour with Ryan Bridge and Mass Motor Vehicle Insurance. 1614 01:22:32,000 --> 01:22:35,120 Speaker 1: Your future is in good hands US Talks MB. 1615 01:22:46,200 --> 01:22:48,439 Speaker 3: Pretty far away THRO seven, you're on us Talk CIB. 1616 01:22:48,960 --> 01:22:52,519 Speaker 3: The plot thickens over in Australia. This is just the 1617 01:22:52,640 --> 01:22:55,320 Speaker 3: story goes from bad to worse, from bad to worse, 1618 01:22:55,320 --> 01:22:57,920 Speaker 3: from bad to worse. This is the Bondie terror attack. 1619 01:22:58,040 --> 01:23:02,880 Speaker 3: So the accused, one of the qu's terrorists, has apparently 1620 01:23:03,280 --> 01:23:06,760 Speaker 3: been following the teachings of a preacher by the name 1621 01:23:06,920 --> 01:23:11,640 Speaker 3: of Wissam Haddad, and that preacher has close links to 1622 01:23:12,120 --> 01:23:16,719 Speaker 3: Islamic State terrorists and they were reportedly this is according 1623 01:23:16,760 --> 01:23:19,920 Speaker 3: to the ABC. This is a report from back in September. 1624 01:23:20,760 --> 01:23:26,240 Speaker 3: They were targeting pro Palestinian protesters, you know, they would 1625 01:23:26,280 --> 01:23:29,200 Speaker 3: go for the marches on the bridge over the Sydney 1626 01:23:29,240 --> 01:23:34,000 Speaker 3: Harbor Bridge or in downtown Sydney.

So this is all 1630 01:23:51,240 --> 01:23:53,360 Speaker 3: coming out in the press over in Australia at the moment. 1631 01:23:53,400 --> 01:23:58,559 Speaker 3: But they're basically linking who was the accused terrorist, following 1632 01:23:59,280 --> 01:24:02,639 Speaker 3: where did that who was that follower?

And it's painting 1634 01:24:05,200 --> 01:24:08,519 Speaker 3: a pretty bleak picture indeed over across the Tasman twenty 1635 01:24:08,520 --> 01:24:12,080 Speaker 3: four away from seven Ryan Bridge. Right, let's get to 1636 01:24:12,120 --> 01:24:14,760 Speaker 3: Danae Tips Trainey, who's The Herald's willing to business editor 1637 01:24:14,760 --> 01:24:18,000 Speaker 3: with us this evening toenay, good evening, Good evening, Ryan. 1638 01:24:18,280 --> 01:24:21,840 Speaker 3: So we've had the Reserve Bank governor busy doing a 1639 01:24:21,840 --> 01:24:24,840 Speaker 3: whole bunch of interviews this week. What have you made 1640 01:24:24,880 --> 01:24:27,959 Speaker 3: of them and what impact they've had on markets? 1641 01:24:29,560 --> 01:24:33,840 Speaker 27: Yeah, look, interestingly this week Arna Breeman came out and 1642 01:24:33,880 --> 01:24:37,400 Speaker 27: did three interviews in which she delivered the same message. 1643 01:24:37,720 --> 01:24:40,800 Speaker 27: She basically tried to talk markets down a weeb it. 1644 01:24:41,360 --> 01:24:45,320 Speaker 27: After the Reserve Bank cut the OCR in November. The 1645 01:24:45,360 --> 01:24:50,200 Speaker 27: market really fixated on some of the commentary around the cut. 1646 01:24:50,400 --> 01:24:53,879 Speaker 27: It got ahead of itself at priced in three OCR 1647 01:24:54,000 --> 01:24:57,479 Speaker 27: hikes for next year. That's quite a lot. Wholesale interest 1648 01:24:57,560 --> 01:24:59,600 Speaker 27: rates went up, you know that' saw Westpac A and 1649 01:24:59,680 --> 01:25:03,000 Speaker 27: Z the hot bank or lift mortgage and term deposit rates. 1650 01:25:04,600 --> 01:25:07,200 Speaker 27: This week the governor just came out to basically, and 1651 01:25:07,320 --> 01:25:12,160 Speaker 27: Reserve Bank speak, say calm down. So I spoke to 1652 01:25:12,200 --> 01:25:15,760 Speaker 27: her yesterday afternoon. She didn't say, calmed down exactly. But 1653 01:25:15,960 --> 01:25:20,040 Speaker 27: she directed the market to focus on the Reserve Bank's 1654 01:25:20,080 --> 01:25:23,280 Speaker 27: o CR track and it's November statement. And according to 1655 01:25:23,320 --> 01:25:26,799 Speaker 27: that track, the Reserve Bank reckons the ocr will stay 1656 01:25:26,840 --> 01:25:29,559 Speaker 27: low for next year. In fact, there's a slight chance 1657 01:25:29,600 --> 01:25:32,320 Speaker 27: it could even be cut a bit more. So she 1658 01:25:32,960 --> 01:25:35,559 Speaker 27: tried to emphasize that, and that did move the market. 1659 01:25:35,920 --> 01:25:38,599 Speaker 27: The market has now priced in two o CR hikes 1660 01:25:38,600 --> 01:25:42,280 Speaker 27: for next year, not three, and those wholesale interest rates 1661 01:25:42,640 --> 01:25:45,759 Speaker 27: have come down, but they're still quite a bit above 1662 01:25:45,800 --> 01:25:48,120 Speaker 27: where they were before the November statement. 1663 01:25:48,439 --> 01:25:52,880 Speaker 3: And hasn't that that change hasn't prompted the retails yet 1664 01:25:52,880 --> 01:25:55,840 Speaker 3: to undo the you know, they like that they had 1665 01:25:55,840 --> 01:25:57,120 Speaker 3: initially put in right. 1666 01:25:57,960 --> 01:26:01,000 Speaker 27: No, and I you know, I just I don't think 1667 01:26:01,040 --> 01:26:04,240 Speaker 27: they will. So, you know, some banks haven't shifted yet, 1668 01:26:04,479 --> 01:26:07,040 Speaker 27: or they might not shift at all. I think the 1669 01:26:07,080 --> 01:26:09,519 Speaker 27: market is, you know, it's a lot of information to 1670 01:26:09,600 --> 01:26:12,600 Speaker 27: digest this week. It's probably still going to look to 1671 01:26:12,800 --> 01:26:16,400 Speaker 27: the GDP figures out tomorrow. You know, markets factor in 1672 01:26:16,560 --> 01:26:19,519 Speaker 27: a bunch of things when they are set, you know, 1673 01:26:20,080 --> 01:26:22,879 Speaker 27: when they sort of do their trading in the money markets, 1674 01:26:24,520 --> 01:26:27,639 Speaker 27: you know. But I think her comments did have an effect, 1675 01:26:27,640 --> 01:26:30,320 Speaker 27: and they actually did take the market by surprise because 1676 01:26:30,680 --> 01:26:34,559 Speaker 27: last week we talked to the governor and we asked her, 1677 01:26:34,800 --> 01:26:36,720 Speaker 27: you know, she comfortable with where the market is at, 1678 01:26:36,720 --> 01:26:39,559 Speaker 27: and she didn't really say anything this way or that way. 1679 01:26:40,760 --> 01:26:42,720 Speaker 27: But at that point she hadn't actually met with her 1680 01:26:42,800 --> 01:26:45,160 Speaker 27: fellow Monetary Policy Committee members, you know, it's the whole 1681 01:26:45,160 --> 01:26:48,280 Speaker 27: committee that sets monetary policy. So after we meet her 1682 01:26:48,360 --> 01:26:51,519 Speaker 27: last week, she did meet with the committee members and 1683 01:26:51,560 --> 01:26:54,360 Speaker 27: then came out on Monday with, you know, with this 1684 01:26:54,520 --> 01:26:57,600 Speaker 27: sort of jaw boning. So you know, some people have 1685 01:26:57,680 --> 01:26:59,519 Speaker 27: talked to her are quite critical of this. They said, 1686 01:26:59,520 --> 01:27:02,200 Speaker 27: why didn't she meet with her committee members as soon 1687 01:27:02,240 --> 01:27:04,200 Speaker 27: as she'd got the job at the beginning of December? 1688 01:27:04,640 --> 01:27:06,879 Speaker 27: Why did she wait so long? So I think that's 1689 01:27:06,920 --> 01:27:07,880 Speaker 27: probably a fair question. 1690 01:27:08,760 --> 01:27:12,640 Speaker 3: Now, the new capital requirements for the banks, you know, 1691 01:27:12,720 --> 01:27:17,240 Speaker 3: sort of undoing what adrien Or had done. Do you 1692 01:27:17,280 --> 01:27:18,960 Speaker 3: think that we spoke to the co Op Bank earlier, 1693 01:27:18,960 --> 01:27:20,639 Speaker 3: it didn't sound like it's going to really have much 1694 01:27:20,680 --> 01:27:23,000 Speaker 3: of an impact. I know they don't come in immediately, 1695 01:27:23,080 --> 01:27:26,599 Speaker 3: but much of an impact on our interest rates or 1696 01:27:26,800 --> 01:27:28,120 Speaker 3: what we're paying the banks. 1697 01:27:29,240 --> 01:27:32,760 Speaker 27: Well, the Reserve Bank thinks that Ultimately it will have 1698 01:27:32,840 --> 01:27:36,080 Speaker 27: an effect. So remember these capital rules, which aimed at 1699 01:27:36,080 --> 01:27:40,040 Speaker 27: making banks strong, they're being phased in. They'll be fully 1700 01:27:40,040 --> 01:27:43,160 Speaker 27: phased in twenty twenty eight. The Reserve Banks saying that 1701 01:27:43,160 --> 01:27:47,799 Speaker 27: with the changes it will make, it'll save banks about 1702 01:27:48,120 --> 01:27:51,719 Speaker 27: reduce their funding costs by about twelve basis points compared 1703 01:27:51,720 --> 01:27:56,040 Speaker 27: to that twenty twenty eight level. So in theory, you know, 1704 01:27:56,120 --> 01:28:00,360 Speaker 27: banks should pass that cost saving onto customers. That's what 1705 01:28:00,400 --> 01:28:03,559 Speaker 27: the Reserve Bank thinks, you know, they think it could 1706 01:28:03,560 --> 01:28:05,920 Speaker 27: be in the magnitude of about ten basis points. The 1707 01:28:05,960 --> 01:28:08,680 Speaker 27: savings that you might get on your you know, your 1708 01:28:08,840 --> 01:28:11,960 Speaker 27: your loans and you know, if you're a savor that 1709 01:28:12,000 --> 01:28:15,759 Speaker 27: the extra interest you'll get for your term deposit about 1710 01:28:15,760 --> 01:28:18,559 Speaker 27: ten basis points. But that's compared to what it would 1711 01:28:18,600 --> 01:28:21,200 Speaker 27: have been under the old rules by twenty twenty eight. 1712 01:28:21,240 --> 01:28:24,639 Speaker 27: So that sounds awfully complex. I mean, it is a change. 1713 01:28:25,120 --> 01:28:25,799 Speaker 27: Is it huge? 1714 01:28:26,120 --> 01:28:26,160 Speaker 6: No? 1715 01:28:27,760 --> 01:28:31,679 Speaker 27: Will banks pass that cost saving on don't know? Will 1716 01:28:31,760 --> 01:28:36,120 Speaker 27: their shareholders just pocket that cost saving? Well, you know probably. 1717 01:28:37,960 --> 01:28:40,920 Speaker 27: I talked to Nikola Willis about that today and I said, well, 1718 01:28:40,920 --> 01:28:43,920 Speaker 27: this is going to be really hard to measure. You know, 1719 01:28:44,000 --> 01:28:46,559 Speaker 27: so many things factor into bank profits. How are we 1720 01:28:46,600 --> 01:28:49,640 Speaker 27: going to know exactly? So I think that that's a 1721 01:28:49,680 --> 01:28:52,720 Speaker 27: key question. I mean, the thing is here though. When 1722 01:28:52,720 --> 01:28:54,879 Speaker 27: the rules first came in, we didn't have this deposit 1723 01:28:54,920 --> 01:28:58,400 Speaker 27: compensation scheme. We now have that, So that means that 1724 01:28:58,439 --> 01:29:00,679 Speaker 27: if your bank collapses, you'll get some of your money back, 1725 01:29:01,560 --> 01:29:04,599 Speaker 27: which is an extra thing that makes banks a bit stronger. 1726 01:29:04,680 --> 01:29:06,600 Speaker 27: So the Reserve Bank is saying, look, because we have 1727 01:29:06,680 --> 01:29:09,960 Speaker 27: this new deposit compensation scheme, we can ease up on 1728 01:29:10,040 --> 01:29:11,680 Speaker 27: these capital rules a bit. 1729 01:29:13,040 --> 01:29:15,639 Speaker 3: Yeah, so, yeah, makes sense. Hey, you know the deposit 1730 01:29:15,680 --> 01:29:17,639 Speaker 3: This is a random question, but I've kind of been 1731 01:29:17,640 --> 01:29:20,240 Speaker 3: thinking about it, and maybe it's a dumb question. I'm 1732 01:29:20,280 --> 01:29:23,800 Speaker 3: just gonna ask. So it's one hundred thousand dollars per 1733 01:29:24,720 --> 01:29:27,080 Speaker 3: If you've got an account with the bank, they guarantee 1734 01:29:27,120 --> 01:29:30,360 Speaker 3: you up to one hundred thousand dollars. Would let's say 1735 01:29:30,400 --> 01:29:32,639 Speaker 3: you've got five hundred thousand dollars. Should you not put 1736 01:29:32,640 --> 01:29:36,160 Speaker 3: one hundred thousand dollars into different five different banks and 1737 01:29:36,200 --> 01:29:38,799 Speaker 3: then be covered five times or is it pull per person? 1738 01:29:40,080 --> 01:29:40,320 Speaker 14: Yeah? 1739 01:29:40,400 --> 01:29:40,920 Speaker 3: No, you're right. 1740 01:29:40,920 --> 01:29:43,559 Speaker 27: If you have five hundred thousand dollars, you're best off 1741 01:29:43,640 --> 01:29:46,280 Speaker 27: under the scheme to split it. So if you have 1742 01:29:46,400 --> 01:29:49,599 Speaker 27: five hundred thousand at one bank, that bank collapses, you'll 1743 01:29:49,640 --> 01:29:52,280 Speaker 27: only get one hundred thousand back. But if you've spread 1744 01:29:52,280 --> 01:29:55,439 Speaker 27: your five hundred thousand across five banks, and all five 1745 01:29:55,479 --> 01:29:58,800 Speaker 27: banks collapse, you'll you'll get one hundred thousand back from 1746 01:29:58,800 --> 01:30:03,240 Speaker 27: each bank. So you know, this is not not financial advice. 1747 01:30:03,400 --> 01:30:09,200 Speaker 27: But if you want to maximize, you bet, then that's 1748 01:30:09,280 --> 01:30:12,120 Speaker 27: probably a good idea. I had wandered actually with it. 1749 01:30:12,160 --> 01:30:13,840 Speaker 27: We'd see a whole lot of money moved when the 1750 01:30:13,880 --> 01:30:15,639 Speaker 27: scheme came into place in the middle of the year 1751 01:30:15,920 --> 01:30:18,479 Speaker 27: because of this. But it sounds like there sort of 1752 01:30:18,680 --> 01:30:21,560 Speaker 27: hasn't been noticeable sums shifted. 1753 01:30:21,200 --> 01:30:23,479 Speaker 3: About maybe no one. That's because we haven't got the 1754 01:30:23,520 --> 01:30:25,920 Speaker 3: word out yet. Now that now that you're giving us 1755 01:30:25,920 --> 01:30:27,720 Speaker 3: this great financial advice, Janney. 1756 01:30:27,640 --> 01:30:30,439 Speaker 27: Yeah exactly, I'm going to get some some very angry 1757 01:30:30,439 --> 01:30:30,840 Speaker 27: phone calls. 1758 01:30:30,880 --> 01:30:35,360 Speaker 3: But no, I mean that that is how it works, Okayating. 1759 01:30:34,439 --> 01:30:37,000 Speaker 27: Finance companies and things are included in that as well. 1760 01:30:37,360 --> 01:30:39,400 Speaker 3: Fascinating. Now I just need to find half a million 1761 01:30:39,439 --> 01:30:43,719 Speaker 3: dollars then I'll be easy. Jane, thank you. Trainee from 1762 01:30:43,840 --> 01:30:46,840 Speaker 3: the Herald is with us this evening seventeen away from 1763 01:30:46,840 --> 01:30:48,759 Speaker 3: seven We'll get to Gavin Gray out of the UK next. 1764 01:30:49,400 --> 01:30:52,280 Speaker 1: Ever, it's to do with money. It matters to you. 1765 01:30:52,800 --> 01:30:57,400 Speaker 2: The Business Hour with Ryan Bridge and Mass Motor Vehicle Insurance. 1766 01:30:57,760 --> 01:30:59,599 Speaker 1: Your futures in good hands. 1767 01:31:00,080 --> 01:31:03,320 Speaker 3: News Talk zibby fourteen away from seven News Talk SIBB. 1768 01:31:03,520 --> 01:31:06,479 Speaker 3: Doctors in the UK going on a five day strike 1769 01:31:06,560 --> 01:31:09,160 Speaker 3: that we thought that, No, the twenty four hour strike 1770 01:31:09,280 --> 01:31:11,479 Speaker 3: or even the two seven hour strike that we had 1771 01:31:11,479 --> 01:31:14,360 Speaker 3: in New Zealander's bed not although Devin Gray is our 1772 01:31:14,439 --> 01:31:18,599 Speaker 3: UK Correspondentvin, which doctors in particular are going on strike 1773 01:31:18,720 --> 01:31:20,120 Speaker 3: or is it all of them? 1774 01:31:20,640 --> 01:31:23,559 Speaker 28: Note these are what are called resident doctors that used 1775 01:31:23,600 --> 01:31:27,439 Speaker 28: to be called junior doctors, Ryan, but they represent about 1776 01:31:27,479 --> 01:31:29,880 Speaker 28: sixty percent of all the doctors that you see in 1777 01:31:29,880 --> 01:31:33,720 Speaker 28: a hospital. Not the consultants or the surgeons here, but 1778 01:31:33,840 --> 01:31:37,120 Speaker 28: the doctors, you know, the straightforward one. So a large 1779 01:31:37,160 --> 01:31:39,680 Speaker 28: proportion of the doctors are going out on strike. It's 1780 01:31:39,680 --> 01:31:41,360 Speaker 28: a long running dispute. 1781 01:31:41,240 --> 01:31:42,800 Speaker 3: Over yes, you guessed it. 1782 01:31:43,000 --> 01:31:43,240 Speaker 20: Pay. 1783 01:31:43,960 --> 01:31:48,280 Speaker 28: The government's pointing out that they've actually given the doctor's 1784 01:31:48,400 --> 01:31:52,920 Speaker 28: resident doctors a thirty three zero percent increase in salary 1785 01:31:53,640 --> 01:31:57,679 Speaker 28: over the last couple of years. But the junior doctors 1786 01:31:57,880 --> 01:32:01,000 Speaker 28: are not happy. They say no, that's still not enough, 1787 01:32:01,080 --> 01:32:04,360 Speaker 28: and also there are some other things they want over, 1788 01:32:04,439 --> 01:32:08,040 Speaker 28: basically career progression training, et cetera, et cetera. Now, the 1789 01:32:08,080 --> 01:32:12,920 Speaker 28: government held an emergency meeting a couple of days at 1790 01:32:12,920 --> 01:32:16,040 Speaker 28: the end of last week, effectively trying to stop this strike, 1791 01:32:16,800 --> 01:32:22,719 Speaker 28: and the junior doctors held another voter and effectively decided 1792 01:32:22,760 --> 01:32:24,479 Speaker 28: to go ahead. It was a real snub to the 1793 01:32:24,479 --> 01:32:28,960 Speaker 28: government's attempts, with more than eighty percent voting for this strike. 1794 01:32:29,040 --> 01:32:31,759 Speaker 28: The reason it's particularly in the headlines at the moment 1795 01:32:31,840 --> 01:32:33,959 Speaker 28: RAN is because we have got. 1796 01:32:33,760 --> 01:32:37,280 Speaker 1: A real wave of bad flu. 1797 01:32:36,720 --> 01:32:39,719 Speaker 28: Strains going around and that has meant that many beds 1798 01:32:39,720 --> 01:32:43,519 Speaker 28: are now occupied in hospital by flu patients. So people 1799 01:32:43,600 --> 01:32:46,000 Speaker 28: are beginning to think that actually, this five day strike 1800 01:32:46,080 --> 01:32:50,280 Speaker 28: may well knock out non emergency services for a while, 1801 01:32:50,400 --> 01:32:52,960 Speaker 28: and that's going to push up waiting lists and do 1802 01:32:53,160 --> 01:32:55,720 Speaker 28: a lot of dent to the government's plans to get 1803 01:32:55,760 --> 01:32:56,800 Speaker 28: those waiting lists down. 1804 01:32:57,040 --> 01:32:59,679 Speaker 3: Yeah, we have a similar thing going on here because 1805 01:32:59,760 --> 01:33:01,519 Speaker 3: during COVID, I'm sure you did the same thing. The 1806 01:33:01,520 --> 01:33:04,519 Speaker 3: waving lists blow out, government comes and tries to fix it. 1807 01:33:04,880 --> 01:33:07,400 Speaker 3: People go on strike and then it makes it very difficult. 1808 01:33:08,240 --> 01:33:08,559 Speaker 14: Now. 1809 01:33:09,040 --> 01:33:10,920 Speaker 3: Climate We're spoken about this a couple of times, but 1810 01:33:10,960 --> 01:33:13,800 Speaker 3: the climate, the sort of rolling back of the climate initiatives, 1811 01:33:13,840 --> 01:33:18,920 Speaker 3: the European Commissions watering down its petrol diesel vehicle ben. 1812 01:33:20,240 --> 01:33:23,120 Speaker 28: Yes, so the EU said that they were going to 1813 01:33:23,160 --> 01:33:28,719 Speaker 28: have zero emission new cars sold from twenty thirty five. 1814 01:33:29,200 --> 01:33:32,080 Speaker 28: In other words, every single car being sold off the 1815 01:33:32,120 --> 01:33:34,280 Speaker 28: fore court that was new was going to have to 1816 01:33:34,320 --> 01:33:38,240 Speaker 28: be electric or some kind of other zero emission vehicle. 1817 01:33:38,680 --> 01:33:41,680 Speaker 28: Well they've watered that down now to ninety percent, so 1818 01:33:41,720 --> 01:33:44,479 Speaker 28: it's still pretty tight, but I think it's a sign 1819 01:33:44,560 --> 01:33:47,840 Speaker 28: of perhaps what's more to come. Car makers, particularly those 1820 01:33:47,880 --> 01:33:51,559 Speaker 28: in Germany, have lobbied very heavily for concessions. They are 1821 01:33:51,680 --> 01:33:54,400 Speaker 28: pleased it's come down, but I think some of them 1822 01:33:54,400 --> 01:33:57,479 Speaker 28: are really thinking, actually, this needs to come down even more, 1823 01:33:58,200 --> 01:34:02,280 Speaker 28: and they are just saying quite simply that we are 1824 01:34:02,560 --> 01:34:06,080 Speaker 28: just not going to get there because the interest and 1825 01:34:06,160 --> 01:34:09,800 Speaker 28: the sales in electric cars has not been strong. And 1826 01:34:10,040 --> 01:34:13,679 Speaker 28: also the change to production lines whilst it's been happening 1827 01:34:13,960 --> 01:34:17,920 Speaker 28: to go from internal combustion through until electric, well those 1828 01:34:18,000 --> 01:34:20,479 Speaker 28: changes have started to be made, but we think twenty 1829 01:34:20,560 --> 01:34:24,160 Speaker 28: thirty five is way too ambitious to ban new petrol 1830 01:34:24,280 --> 01:34:25,439 Speaker 28: and diesel vehicles. 1831 01:34:25,479 --> 01:34:26,320 Speaker 3: So in a. 1832 01:34:26,320 --> 01:34:28,559 Speaker 28: Sense, Germany well, of course, one of the big big 1833 01:34:28,560 --> 01:34:31,720 Speaker 28: players in the EU, has got its way here, and 1834 01:34:31,840 --> 01:34:35,280 Speaker 28: it's not the only group that's pleased with this. It 1835 01:34:35,320 --> 01:34:37,679 Speaker 28: would appear as well, this is the way the UK 1836 01:34:37,920 --> 01:34:43,519 Speaker 28: is going as well, with the UK previously being hammered 1837 01:34:43,600 --> 01:34:47,920 Speaker 28: for the requirement for having better incentives to encourage drivers 1838 01:34:47,960 --> 01:34:50,920 Speaker 28: to buy electric Those incentives are there, but they're not 1839 01:34:51,040 --> 01:34:54,720 Speaker 28: very significant, and again electric car interest and electric car 1840 01:34:54,800 --> 01:34:58,439 Speaker 28: sales not great. Opponents of what's happening in the EU 1841 01:34:58,680 --> 01:35:02,759 Speaker 28: say they really risk undermining the transition towards electric vehicles 1842 01:35:02,800 --> 01:35:06,360 Speaker 28: and leaving the EU exposed in the face of foreign competition. 1843 01:35:06,600 --> 01:35:09,080 Speaker 3: And finally, given doesn't matter what kind of call you're driving. 1844 01:35:09,080 --> 01:35:10,920 Speaker 3: If you're going to first you get a speeding fine, 1845 01:35:10,920 --> 01:35:13,360 Speaker 3: but some drivers that might get an early Christmas prison. 1846 01:35:14,520 --> 01:35:18,160 Speaker 28: Yeah, this is an almighty cock up here by various 1847 01:35:19,080 --> 01:35:23,800 Speaker 28: authorities because it's been discovered that these roadside cameras, the 1848 01:35:23,840 --> 01:35:27,559 Speaker 28: fixed cameras that we see above gantries across major roads 1849 01:35:27,560 --> 01:35:30,320 Speaker 28: are on the side of the road, have been actually 1850 01:35:30,320 --> 01:35:35,519 Speaker 28: giving the wrongful speed and activated when people were driving 1851 01:35:35,520 --> 01:35:38,960 Speaker 28: to the limit and not speeding. So in total, two thousand, 1852 01:35:39,280 --> 01:35:43,760 Speaker 28: six hundred and fifty wrongful speed camera activations as they 1853 01:35:43,840 --> 01:35:47,760 Speaker 28: call it. In other words, wrongful prosecutions have happened since 1854 01:35:47,800 --> 01:35:51,200 Speaker 28: twenty twenty one, and that's due to a delay between 1855 01:35:51,240 --> 01:35:54,719 Speaker 28: the cameras and the variable speed signs. Now the effected 1856 01:35:54,840 --> 01:35:58,000 Speaker 28: drivers are being contacted by police and will be reimbursed 1857 01:35:58,040 --> 01:36:01,040 Speaker 28: for any fines. Points that they had removed from their 1858 01:36:01,080 --> 01:36:06,240 Speaker 28: license will be replaced. But the problem here, Ryan is 1859 01:36:06,280 --> 01:36:09,320 Speaker 28: some people might have lost their licenses all together because 1860 01:36:09,320 --> 01:36:13,280 Speaker 28: of numerous driving offenses, and of course if you lose 1861 01:36:13,320 --> 01:36:15,320 Speaker 28: your license, for some people, it's also the loss of 1862 01:36:15,360 --> 01:36:17,639 Speaker 28: their job. So it's a very real issue that among 1863 01:36:17,720 --> 01:36:22,080 Speaker 28: these two thy, six hundred and fifty wrongful convictions or 1864 01:36:22,120 --> 01:36:25,080 Speaker 28: wrongful prosecutions, there might be some people who have actually 1865 01:36:25,080 --> 01:36:30,040 Speaker 28: had their lives completely upended by excuse me, a fake camera. 1866 01:36:29,760 --> 01:36:32,800 Speaker 3: Reading, Gevin, thank you for that update.

They're about aging and how everybody these days 1873 01:36:52,200 --> 01:36:54,800 Speaker 3: is getting you know, they're either getting botox or they're 1874 01:36:54,800 --> 01:36:58,840 Speaker 3: getting me here dyed or that, I don't know, having faceless, 1875 01:36:59,320 --> 01:37:01,519 Speaker 3: you know the cards.

Now they're all getting faceless, 1878 01:37:06,439 --> 01:37:09,160 Speaker 3: which apparently costs about two hundred and fifty thousand dollars 1879 01:37:09,240 --> 01:37:11,519 Speaker 3: to get done because they're the best in Hollywood. But 1880 01:37:11,560 --> 01:37:14,320 Speaker 3: what happens if you don't do any of that stuff? 1881 01:37:15,720 --> 01:37:18,400 Speaker 3: Do you look old?
