1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:01,480 Speaker 1: Let me just start with this, Am I joining ti 2 00:00:01,520 --> 00:00:03,440 Speaker 1: many dots? A question for you this Friday morning? Am 3 00:00:03,440 --> 00:00:05,440 Speaker 1: I joining too many dots? As I wonder? Allow? With that? 4 00:00:05,519 --> 00:00:07,720 Speaker 1: The Government, having had by any measure, a very very 5 00:00:07,720 --> 00:00:10,879 Speaker 1: good week, whether they namely the Prime Minister, has at 6 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:14,200 Speaker 1: last got the message that some action as opposed to 7 00:00:14,280 --> 00:00:16,520 Speaker 1: YAK might be what the punter actually wants a little 8 00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:19,400 Speaker 1: bit more of several solid health changes this week. More 9 00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:22,439 Speaker 1: doctors already here to be parked at GPS, more nurses 10 00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:25,520 Speaker 1: scripts via tech when we want them. I mean, the 11 00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:27,280 Speaker 1: idea that getting a script on the net. It all, 12 00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:29,040 Speaker 1: how that suits you really shouldn't be a thing. But 13 00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:31,280 Speaker 1: let don't show you how backward we have become. Are 14 00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:34,479 Speaker 1: They're all practical, sensible and politically beneficial of it? I 15 00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:37,000 Speaker 1: thought the exam concerns from the principles that wanted less 16 00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:40,760 Speaker 1: hard work and more free credits dismissed quite rightly as 17 00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:42,839 Speaker 1: the Minister hammers home the concept of hard work and 18 00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:44,919 Speaker 1: not giving up the big one. Of course, all gone, 19 00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:47,360 Speaker 1: a sacking without a sacking, and a result the government 20 00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:50,720 Speaker 1: wanted and needed. GoF gone? Was it thinly veiled? Maybe 21 00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:53,080 Speaker 1: stupid comment, of course, and a commissioner's job is to 22 00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 1: represent the government, Never more so than when you're dealing 23 00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:58,440 Speaker 1: with a new, unpredictable America and walking a very tight 24 00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 1: rope and the Pacific between owner in the US and 25 00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:03,320 Speaker 1: a couple of minor ones. One the Prime Minister's marmite 26 00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:05,160 Speaker 1: sandwich line on the show and nod to middle New 27 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:07,920 Speaker 1: Zealand who are fed up with elite owners and elite 28 00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:09,840 Speaker 1: media and their pile on over an issue that in 29 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:13,240 Speaker 1: a convulsing world really NOIW is embarrassing. And two, more 30 00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:17,040 Speaker 1: importantly health again. With bowel cancer announced yesterday, screening age 31 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:21,240 Speaker 1: extended down to fifty eight from sixty. The money comes 32 00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:25,280 Speaker 1: from the segregated Maori Bowell screening program message this is 33 00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:28,040 Speaker 1: one country with one rule for everyone. Bell cans is 34 00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:30,240 Speaker 1: not a race issue, it's a health issue. So by 35 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:32,520 Speaker 1: the time you put all that together on a Friday morning, 36 00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:35,160 Speaker 1: you've collected up a fairly substantial five to seven days 37 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:37,480 Speaker 1: and the vast majority of it is one positive, two 38 00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:39,880 Speaker 1: on the right side of the voter, and three gives 39 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:43,039 Speaker 1: the very clear indication that a week's worth of actual 40 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:46,360 Speaker 1: doing is vastly more appealing and productive than a week 41 00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:49,120 Speaker 1: worth of announcing or defending, or scrapping or time wasting. 42 00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 1: Keep it up and the polls will show it's what 43 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:55,560 Speaker 1: the majority of people actually voted for.
