11
00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:35,560
Speaker 3: starting the year with a shortage of teachers. We find

12
00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:39,000
Speaker 3: out just how bad the situation is. Donald Trump did

13
00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:41,400
Speaker 3: not hold back on his first day as president. What

14
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:44,720
Speaker 3: does the day too hold? We find out also this

15
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:48,239
Speaker 3: our inflation figures are out today. We prepare ourselves for

16
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:49,720
Speaker 3: what to expect.

17
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:51,720
Speaker 1: The agenda.

18
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:55,160
Speaker 3: It's Wednesday, that's really second of January. A fire at

19
00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:59,080
Speaker 3: a Turkish ski resort has killed sixty six people. It

20
00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:01,640
Speaker 3: started early in the morning local time, when two hundred

21
00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:04,520
Speaker 3: and thirty four people were staying in the resort. A

22
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:08,880
Speaker 3: local official says an initial investigation shows the fire appears

23
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:11,319
Speaker 3: to have started in the kitchen and moved up the

24
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:15,360
Speaker 3: twelve story building. Two people died trying to jump to safety.

25
00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:19,560
Speaker 3: Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanesi has called a national cabinet

26
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:23,560
Speaker 3: meeting with all state and territory leaders following multiple anti

27
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:26,880
Speaker 3: Semitic attacks, the latest and overnight arson attack on a

28
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:28,400
Speaker 3: Sydney childcare center.

29
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:32,119
Speaker 4: This needs to come in two directions. Of course, from

30
00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 4: the top, there are things that the police and security

31
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:39,440
Speaker 4: agencies can do. There are things that political leaders can do.

32
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:42,559
Speaker 4: But it also is a matter of the community as well,

33
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:46,280
Speaker 4: saying enough is enough, this is reprehensible.

34
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:49,560
Speaker 3: Australian Federal police say they are looking into whether recent

35
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 3: attacks were paid for by overseas actors or individuals. Two

36
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:56,960
Speaker 3: Americans held by the Taliban have been released in a

37
00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 3: swap with two Afghan prisoners facing charges of terror and

38
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:04,160
Speaker 3: drug trafficking in the US. The exchange was made just

39
00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 3: before Joe Biden left office yesterday and concludes two years

40
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:12,160
Speaker 3: of negotiations. Miamar's government and a rebel group in the

41
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 3: country's north have signed a ceasefire agreement backed by China.

42
00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:19,080
Speaker 3: The group have been taking land along my Miamar's border

43
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:22,480
Speaker 3: with China. An earlier agreement signed a year ago was

44
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 3: broken by both sides.

45
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 5: All that they're an ethnic Chinese armed outfit that was

46
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:29,519
Speaker 5: formed in nineteen eighty nine, and they used to be

47
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:33,160
Speaker 5: part of the Burma Communist Party, and they signed a

48
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:35,520
Speaker 5: ceasefire back in and agreed to a cease fire back

49
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 5: in nineteen eighty nine and largely stayed out of fighting

50
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:42,119
Speaker 5: the Central State until two thousand and nine, in which

51
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:43,360
Speaker 5: they went back into Ope.

52
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:48,040
Speaker 2: And Revolt, setting the news agenda on early edition with

53
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 2: one roof make your Property Search Simple news dog ZBJE.

54
00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:55,240
Speaker 3: It's been a serious start to the year, hasn't it,

55
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,639
Speaker 3: And sometimes heading back into the work year can be

56
00:02:57,680 --> 00:02:59,800
Speaker 3: a bit daunting, So that's good to have a laugh, right.

57
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:02,840
Speaker 3: Maybe that's what Toy the Bear brand that likes to

58
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,440
Speaker 3: be known as the irreverent voice of the Nation was

59
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:07,919
Speaker 3: thinking when it put up a year right billboard on

60
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 3: Facebook featuring former Green's MP Goldrey's government. They say what

61
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:14,920
Speaker 3: the rest of us are thinking, and there is nothing

62
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:17,560
Speaker 3: wrong with that. But for a brand that likes to

63
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:19,480
Speaker 3: be tongue in cheek and have a bit of a

64
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:22,560
Speaker 3: laugh with some lighthearted banter, they seem to be getting

65
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:25,440
Speaker 3: a bit nasty with it. It was a cheap shot,

66
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:29,760
Speaker 3: an easy target. We're a country that is pretty relaxed

67
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,880
Speaker 3: about taking the mickey out of ourselves and others. But

68
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,560
Speaker 3: I draw the line when it comes to kicking someone

69
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:38,600
Speaker 3: when they're down, and I think that that's another care

70
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 3: we trait. The toy billboards are iconic and advertising and

71
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 3: once upon a time really quite clever. Maybe they need

72
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 3: to lighten up to can to hear your thoughts on

73
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 3: the billboard. You can text on ninety two ninety two.

74
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:56,960
Speaker 3: You're with Early edition. It is ten pus five hard.

Speaker 1: Talks b Yes.

78
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 3: News Dog's AB twelve past five. There's growing concerns some

79
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 3: schools might not have enough teachers before schools start back

80
00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:17,680
Speaker 3: on Monday. There were three hundred and forty six full

81
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,320
Speaker 3: time vacancies across the country listed on the Ministry of

82
00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:24,200
Speaker 3: Education website, but the shortage is expectant to worsen as

83
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:28,360
Speaker 3: the year goes on. Northern Southland College Principal Pete Wilkinson

84
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:30,720
Speaker 3: joins me, Now, good morning, Pete, thanks for your time.

85
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,240
Speaker 6: At Maria, Good morning, Gretesca.

86
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:37,200
Speaker 3: Do you know why we're facing such a shortage?

87
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:41,280
Speaker 6: Yeah, look at the old short effectors. There's there's plenty

88
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:46,599
Speaker 6: going on in education space, and it's just teaching is

89
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 6: just not seen as as the same career are the

90
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:53,000
Speaker 6: same as it used to be way back in the

91
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 6: day when we all started. We've got graduates that are

92
00:04:57,120 --> 00:05:02,640
Speaker 6: coming out that have got five better opportunities elsewhere. Yeah,

93
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:05,320
Speaker 6: there's there's just it's not what it used to be

94
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:09,039
Speaker 6: and it's a really tough gig. So some people are

95
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,760
Speaker 6: voting with their feet. And I suppose we need to

96
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 6: do more in the space to attract to attract graduates,

97
00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:17,960
Speaker 6: to attract young people, good people into education.

98
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,599
Speaker 3: Pete, Is this across the board or mainly in rural

99
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:21,760
Speaker 3: areas that there's a shortage.

100
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 6: Well, traditionally it was harder to attract people in rural areas.

101
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:28,320
Speaker 6: And I'm and i'm a principle of a of a

102
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:32,559
Speaker 6: of a small school in rural Southland, and we've always

103
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:35,159
Speaker 6: had struggles, you know, attracting people and keeping people because

104
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:38,000
Speaker 6: of the of the rural nature and and and you know,

105
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:40,440
Speaker 6: young people want to be in the in the bigger

106
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:42,520
Speaker 6: in the bigger centers. But no, this is this is

107
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:47,840
Speaker 6: a nationwide problem. Exceptionally hard to attract people into into teaching,

108
00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:51,880
Speaker 6: and we have vacancies that are going unfilled for for months,

109
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 6: if not years.

110
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 3: So Pete, how are you set up? How are you

111
00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:58,279
Speaker 3: set up then for the beginning.

112
00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:01,840
Speaker 6: Of the year. Look fluctuates from year to year and

113
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 6: the and the biggest concern is that there there are

114
00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:08,279
Speaker 6: people out there that are putting their hand up to teach,

115
00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:10,840
Speaker 6: but we're just not getting the quality that we used

116
00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:13,640
Speaker 6: to get. We can fill a hole, and at the moment,

117
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:17,800
Speaker 6: you know, schools across the nation, not just rural schools,

118
00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,480
Speaker 6: but across the nation, we've got people who are qualified

119
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:23,680
Speaker 6: to teach, but not not experts in the areas that

120
00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:27,600
Speaker 6: we require. And we're filling holes ad hoc all over

121
00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:29,880
Speaker 6: the place with people who are keen to teach and

122
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 6: keen to help out that that aren't aren't exactly what

123
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:36,480
Speaker 6: we're after. My own personal example is that, I mean,

124
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:40,200
Speaker 6: I've graduated in physical education years ago, and we know

125
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:42,520
Speaker 6: that in He's gone by, physical education teachers are very

126
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:45,120
Speaker 6: adaptable and they end up teaching in all sorts of

127
00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:49,119
Speaker 6: different subject areas. Now now that's happening everywhere. The mantra

128
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:51,800
Speaker 6: in the education sector is if you're qualified and you're breathing,

129
00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:55,039
Speaker 6: you're hired, which which is a pretty sad state of affairs.

130
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:57,400
Speaker 3: So what do you do if you can't get the teachers?

131
00:06:57,520 --> 00:06:58,599
Speaker 3: Do you just have to settle?

132
00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:03,479
Speaker 6: There is? There is? There is a lot of settling,

133
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:05,400
Speaker 6: And there's actually a lot of people who are who

134
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:07,960
Speaker 6: are good teachers who have retired and are relief teaching

135
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:10,960
Speaker 6: and and we're we're calling in favors and shoulders having

136
00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:14,120
Speaker 6: these people to stay in education. That's happened many times

137
00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:17,200
Speaker 6: in my particular school, but it's happening everywhere. We've got

138
00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:20,480
Speaker 6: good people who for all intents and purposes, want to

139
00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:22,320
Speaker 6: be retired and want to be stepping back, and they

140
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:23,600
Speaker 6: are continually stepping up.

141
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:24,080
Speaker 7: To help out.

142
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:27,280
Speaker 6: The flip side of that is that those same people

143
00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:30,080
Speaker 6: who we need for a relief teaching pool on for

144
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:31,960
Speaker 6: day to day relief when you know, when teachers are

145
00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:34,960
Speaker 6: ill and that sort of thing, they're not available. So

146
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:38,880
Speaker 6: we're filling holes and overworking our teachers, our current teaching

147
00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:42,040
Speaker 6: staff who don't get to keep their their non their

148
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:44,640
Speaker 6: non contact payers that they're entitled to so we can

149
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:47,600
Speaker 6: fill classes. We've got we've got people that are teaching

150
00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:50,800
Speaker 6: over over there, over there, allocated teaching timetable. We've got

151
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:53,440
Speaker 6: principles that are stepping in, senior leaders that are stepping

152
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:55,760
Speaker 6: in and teaching when when it's just absolutely not ideal.

153
00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:57,520
Speaker 6: So it's all stock geting measures.

154
00:07:57,880 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a short term and a long term problem,

155
00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 3: isn't it? Is there anything the government can do to help?

156
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:06,440
Speaker 6: Look, this is multifaceted sort of things. You know, we

157
00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:10,920
Speaker 6: need to incentivize teaching. I was just in preparation for this,

158
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 6: I got I got speaking with a few quite a

159
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:16,320
Speaker 6: few staff members and a few long term staff members

160
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:19,280
Speaker 6: that have that have retired and relief teachers, and one

161
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:21,920
Speaker 6: said to me, when I began teaching, I earned the

162
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:25,240
Speaker 6: same amount of money as a bank backpench MP. Now

163
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:27,880
Speaker 6: there is no way that teachers in this day and

164
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:29,520
Speaker 6: age are earning the same at the top of the scale

165
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 6: as a back bench MP. No, we near it. So

166
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 6: that's you know that the whole and money is only

167
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:38,000
Speaker 6: part of the equation. You know, we had successive governments

168
00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:41,320
Speaker 6: that you know, we're playing Mira go arounds of all

169
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:44,480
Speaker 6: sorts of educational things, and every three years we seem

170
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 6: to pivot. Overseas, other countries like Finland, they have a

171
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:51,960
Speaker 6: bipartisan approach to education, so you're not constantly having to

172
00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:56,680
Speaker 6: change tech. And in this current environment, teachers are pretty

173
00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:59,079
Speaker 6: wrecked and burnt out. Hopefully not at this time of

174
00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 6: the year because we're about to off again and get

175
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:03,280
Speaker 6: back into it in twenty twenty.

176
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 1: Five, but.

177
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,160
Speaker 6: Just yet, it's all sorts of things we have to do.

178
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 6: Money as part of the equation. You've got graduates coming

179
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:13,440
Speaker 6: out from a university, let's say in the secondary space,

180
00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:16,160
Speaker 6: when they do a teaching they do a degree first

181
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:18,800
Speaker 6: and then they can do their teaching diploma, the their

182
00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:22,040
Speaker 6: postgraduate qualification. They're not they're voting with their fact they're

183
00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:24,040
Speaker 6: going elsewhere. And it's got to be a mixture of

184
00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 6: pay and conditions. We're just not getting those young people saying, hey,

185
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:31,720
Speaker 6: I really want to go into education, and yeah, there's

186
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:33,240
Speaker 6: all sorts of things we could do to fix it,

187
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 6: but a bipartisan approach ways to improve the desire for

188
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:42,960
Speaker 6: people to want to go teach.

189
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:45,200
Speaker 3: Oh, Pete, best of luck, Thank you so much for

190
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 3: your time this morning. That was Pete Wilkinson Northern Southland

191
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:50,480
Speaker 3: College principle. It's eighteen past five.

192
00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:55,160
Speaker 2: All of the analysis of the nonsense. It's early edition

193
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 2: with one room, make your property search symbol, news dogs

194
00:09:58,760 --> 00:09:59,040
Speaker 2: there be.

195
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:03,320
Speaker 3: Five twenty now. Donald Trump hasn't held back. On his

196
00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:07,480
Speaker 3: first day as president. He signed twenty six executive orders

197
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:11,560
Speaker 3: ending birthright citizenship, leaving the World Health Organization, and he

198
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:16,480
Speaker 3: backtracked on seventy eight executive actions taken by the Biden administration.

199
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:19,760
Speaker 3: These were among the orders. He also declared a national

200
00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:23,240
Speaker 3: order emergency, and US correspondent Nick Harper joins me, Now,

201
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:24,160
Speaker 3: thanks for your time.

202
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:27,439
Speaker 7: Nick, good warning, Francesca.

203
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:30,000
Speaker 3: A busy day. What does it all mean. What's the

204
00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:32,240
Speaker 3: reaction being, Yeah, an.

205
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 7: Unbelievably busy day, showing that he is hitting the ground

206
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,960
Speaker 7: running and showing that he has a very clear agenda

207
00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:40,720
Speaker 7: for his second time in the White House. The reaction

208
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:44,400
Speaker 7: from Republicans his party, as you could imagine, is one

209
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:47,680
Speaker 7: of absolute delight. They feel that Donald Trump, the man

210
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:51,000
Speaker 7: who can save America, is back where he belongs, back

211
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:54,240
Speaker 7: in the White House, and is enacting a whole raft

212
00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:57,480
Speaker 7: of legislative agenda that they have been wanting to see

213
00:10:57,520 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 7: for the last four years, the four years under President

214
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:03,440
Speaker 7: Biden that they feel has been four years of decline

215
00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:05,840
Speaker 7: for the country. On the other side of the isle,

216
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:09,720
Speaker 7: the Democrats have been looking at this and wondering if

217
00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,199
Speaker 7: the country is now going to the dogs, because there

218
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:16,079
Speaker 7: is significant concern about some of those executive actions he

219
00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:20,440
Speaker 7: signed yesterday. Top of the list amongst worry four Democrats

220
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:22,840
Speaker 7: seems to be what he's doing to the rule of

221
00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:27,000
Speaker 7: law and the Justice Department overturning the convictions of one

222
00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:30,559
Speaker 7: than five hundred people who had been convicted for their

223
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:33,640
Speaker 7: actions on January sixth, twenty twenty one when they stormed

224
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:36,640
Speaker 7: the US capital. So it really depends on who you ask.

225
00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:39,800
Speaker 7: Some people love Donald Trump being back. Some are very

226
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:42,880
Speaker 7: concerned what will happen over the next four years.

227
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:45,560
Speaker 3: Are we going to see similar action today his first

228
00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:46,880
Speaker 3: full day as president.

229
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:50,160
Speaker 7: Yeah, a little bit different. I think for this day

230
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:53,040
Speaker 7: there is the potential for more orders to be signed,

231
00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:55,800
Speaker 7: but he's also getting into I guess, the nitty gritty

232
00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:59,760
Speaker 7: of the details today. First order of business at the moment,

233
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:05,200
Speaker 7: attending the Special National Prayer ceremony that always takes place

234
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:08,920
Speaker 7: the day after inauguration at that taking place in Washington,

235
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:13,199
Speaker 7: DC's National Cathedral. But after that he heads to Capitol Hill,

236
00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:16,480
Speaker 7: where he'll be meeting with the top Republicans there, really

237
00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:20,000
Speaker 7: speaking about what he hopes to achieve on Capitol Hill

238
00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:23,240
Speaker 7: to try and get his legislation pushed through over the

239
00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:26,440
Speaker 7: coming months. There is also a suggestion that there will

240
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:30,000
Speaker 7: be a big announcement later on infrastructure that's been teased

241
00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:32,280
Speaker 7: by his White House press sector. You will see if

242
00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 7: that develops. But there is, of course, with Donald Trump,

243
00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:38,000
Speaker 7: the potential for anything to happen at any moment. We

244
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:39,839
Speaker 7: could see him back in the White House signing more

245
00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:41,440
Speaker 7: orders before the end of the day.

246
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:43,880
Speaker 3: Do you see any of these executive orders being challenged

247
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:44,480
Speaker 3: by the courts.

248
00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:48,440
Speaker 7: We've already seen challenges actually on one of them, in

249
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:52,679
Speaker 7: particular his birthright citizenship. He wants to end that if

250
00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:55,520
Speaker 7: you're born in the US, you get citizenship by law.

251
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,360
Speaker 7: But already claimants have come forward saying that he has

252
00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:02,520
Speaker 7: no authority to redefine American citizenship. And there are three

253
00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:06,680
Speaker 7: lawsuits against the newly created Department of Government Efficiency. That's

254
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 7: the one being headed up by Elon musk At. That

255
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:14,079
Speaker 7: lawsuit claim that it is violating transparency lawns. Potentially more

256
00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:16,439
Speaker 7: lawsuits to come on some of the other actions he's

257
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:18,199
Speaker 7: announced as well on NEX.

258
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:19,840
Speaker 3: Thank you so much for your time this morning. That

259
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:24,000
Speaker 3: was ourguis correspondent Nick Happer. It is twenty three past five.

260
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:27,720
Speaker 2: The Early Edition full show podcast on I have Radio

261
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:29,360
Speaker 2: powered by News Talks it be.

262
00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:32,480
Speaker 3: You're with Early Edition. It is twenty five past five.

263
00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:32,880
Speaker 8: Right.

264
00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:34,679
Speaker 3: There's a lot going on in the world this week,

265
00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:37,920
Speaker 3: which is a bit of an understatement, isn't it. This Friday,

266
00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:41,640
Speaker 3: the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences provide some

267
00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:45,280
Speaker 3: lighthearted relief from the world's challenges by announcing the Oscar

268
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:48,360
Speaker 3: nominees for the twenty twenty five Academy Awards. Now the

269
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:50,719
Speaker 3: nominees were due to be announced on January eighteen, then

270
00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 3: January twenty, before being delayed again, giving those impacted by

271
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:57,680
Speaker 3: the fires still raging in southern California more time to vote.

272
00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:01,880
Speaker 3: But as filmmakers, actors, and the masterful crafts people responsible

273
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:03,760
Speaker 3: for making some of the best films of the year

274
00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:06,520
Speaker 3: wait patiently to see whether they will get the nomination

275
00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:11,640
Speaker 3: nod from their peers, a prickly conversation is brewing about AI,

276
00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:14,959
Speaker 3: the latest controversy in film was around the use of

277
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:19,200
Speaker 3: AI and two potential nominees, The Brutalist and Amelia Peris,

278
00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:22,440
Speaker 3: which both won big at the Golden Globes. These two

279
00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:25,600
Speaker 3: OSCAR front runners are dealing with the backlash after it

280
00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:30,000
Speaker 3: was revealed they use voice cloning to enhance actors' performances.

281
00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:34,560
Speaker 3: So in The Brutalist, Adrian Brody and Felicity Jones play

282
00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:37,520
Speaker 3: Jewish Hungarians who survived the Nazi camps and escaped to

283
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:40,880
Speaker 3: the US. The actors spent two months working with a

284
00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:44,120
Speaker 3: dialect coach to perfect their accents, but the filmmakers wanted

285
00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:48,840
Speaker 3: their Hungarian to sound perfect, so added individual sounds and

286
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:52,840
Speaker 3: letters to both Brody and Jones's Hungarian language dialogue to

287
00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:56,800
Speaker 3: perfect it. This has caused quite an uproar, and The

288
00:14:56,800 --> 00:15:00,840
Speaker 3: Brutalist director Brady Corbett was forced to issue a statement

289
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:04,400
Speaker 3: to Hollywood Trade Publication saying Adrian and Felicity's performance is

290
00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:06,880
Speaker 3: completely their own, who went on to say the aim

291
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:10,520
Speaker 3: was to preserve the authenticity of Adrian and Felicity's performance

292
00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:13,520
Speaker 3: in another language, not to replace or alter them, and

293
00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:17,480
Speaker 3: done with the utmost respect for the craft. Their performances

294
00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:20,200
Speaker 3: in this film which I have seen are extraordinary. The

295
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:24,080
Speaker 3: film is stunning, ambitious, audacious, and if a tool was

296
00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:27,920
Speaker 3: used to tweak their Hungarian along the way, well, Hungarians

297
00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:31,560
Speaker 3: are probably grateful with Amelia Peeras it has emerged, AI

298
00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:34,240
Speaker 3: cloning was used to enhance the singing voice of Amelia

299
00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:37,520
Speaker 3: Peire's as Carlo Sophia Garson to increase the range of

300
00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:40,840
Speaker 3: Garson's vocal register. Their singing was then blended with that

301
00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:43,400
Speaker 3: of Camille, the French pop star who co wrote the

302
00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:48,080
Speaker 3: film's score. People are upset really in the film Elvis

303
00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:52,680
Speaker 3: Austin Butler's voices mixed with Eldest's. Marilyn Monroe did not

304
00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:55,760
Speaker 3: hit her own high notes. Zac Efron has a ghost

305
00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:59,280
Speaker 3: singer in high school Musical films have been tricking us

306
00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:02,240
Speaker 3: for years, but suddenly, because it's AI, everyone is up

307
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:05,360
Speaker 3: in arms about it. And it's not just correcting accents

308
00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:08,800
Speaker 3: and singing voices where AI is used. It's already embedded

309
00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:12,040
Speaker 3: in everything from production to writing to visual effects. Just

310
00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:14,960
Speaker 3: don't expect anyone to shout it from the rooftops. Some

311
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:17,600
Speaker 3: say it's more of a pr problem than a tech problem,

312
00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:20,240
Speaker 3: and that it's just another tool like CGI to be

313
00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:23,960
Speaker 3: used to make better films. Obviously, there are concerns about

314
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:26,280
Speaker 3: the prolific use of AI. No one wants to see

315
00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:30,760
Speaker 3: whole sectors of the industry replaced, such as writers or

316
00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:35,080
Speaker 3: graphic artists or background actors. It's often the lowest paid

317
00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:38,280
Speaker 3: on the call sheet who suffer. So it is up

318
00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:41,800
Speaker 3: to the industry to draw the line and work towards

319
00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:45,640
Speaker 3: safeguards and regulation so the industry can find a way

320
00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:49,320
Speaker 3: to use AI for good and love or hate it.

321
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:51,920
Speaker 3: AI is going to be part of our lives in

322
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:54,720
Speaker 3: ways we can already see in ways we can't imagine.

323
00:16:55,440 --> 00:17:00,000
Speaker 3: Just don't let the controversy ruin a good film for you.

324
00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:01,720
Speaker 1: News talks'd be.

325
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:07,000
Speaker 3: The brutalist. I do highly recommend the film, but I

326
00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:08,879
Speaker 3: do need to warn you with three hours and thirty

327
00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:12,120
Speaker 3: five minutes long, and there is a fifteen minute interval

328
00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:15,040
Speaker 3: which is embedded in the film, so you'll get a

329
00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:16,560
Speaker 3: break to go and get a snack and go to

330
00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:18,840
Speaker 3: the loo and things. But it is absolutely stunning. So

331
00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:22,680
Speaker 3: I let it. Silly little AI tiff put you off,

332
00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:25,000
Speaker 3: going to say it, wondering if you've had to get

333
00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:27,960
Speaker 3: your head around AI. Was it something your industry was

334
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,280
Speaker 3: worried about, or you were worried about affecting your job

335
00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:33,760
Speaker 3: or has it turned out to be a great advantage.

336
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:35,560
Speaker 3: Ninety two ninety two is the.

337
00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:43,480

Speaker 3: Get into some of your feedback now, a lot of

355
00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:53,119
Speaker 3: feedback about the teachers. Please stop the constant winging by teachers.

356
00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:55,320
Speaker 3: Look up some stats. There have never been so many

357
00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:58,359
Speaker 3: teachers in New Zealand per pupil, and it's never good enough.

358
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:03,040
Speaker 3: Another text says badly behave children putting people off teaching

359

Speaker 3: high Fridjesca. People just cannot afford to become teachers anymore.

360
00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:08,800
Speaker 3: The cost of living has been a problem for teachers

Speaker 1: Z me right.

Speaker 3: Dunedin is Callum Proctor and Callum those looking for a

371
00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:42,480
Speaker 3: property and then the cargo may have to prepare to

372
00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:43,520
Speaker 3: stretch the budget.

373
00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:48,040
Speaker 9: Yeah morning, it's right. Qv's latest house price index figures

374
00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:50,840
Speaker 9: are out and it shows that the cargol has come

375
00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:54,480
Speaker 9: out on top when it comes to average home value growth.

376
00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:58,080
Speaker 9: Prices there have grown more than any other large urban

377

378

Speaker 9: Editor Owen Vaughan says in for Cargol's affordability is responsible

380
00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:10,680
Speaker 9: for the situation. He says their own research shows and

381
00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:13,640
Speaker 9: for Cargols still has the greatest share of suburbs where

382
00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:15,280
Speaker 9: properties sell for less than.

383
00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:18,760
Speaker 3: Five hundred thousand and Callum Dunedin's weather today.

384
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:21,800
Speaker 9: You're good fine today and twenty two sounds good.

385
00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:22,239
Speaker 1: Thank you.

386
00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:25,520
Speaker 3: Claire Sherwood is in christ Church. Good morning, Claire. A

387
00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:29,119
Speaker 3: historic christ Church kindergarten with ties to author Iiomarsh and

388
00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:32,119
Speaker 3: politician Craigcroft Wilson is closing down.

389
00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:36,480
Speaker 8: That's right, Francesca. This is Richmond Kindergarten on North An Road.

390
00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:39,560
Speaker 8: It's been operating for one hundred and three years, but

391
00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:41,480
Speaker 8: we'll close its stores at the end of term one

392
00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:45,800
Speaker 8: and that's because of dwindling enrollment numbers. Kids First Kindergarten

393
00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:49,919
Speaker 8: CEO Cheryl Wilson says back in the twenties, Niomarsh and

394
00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:54,000
Speaker 8: Craycroft Wilson assisted on the Kindergartens Committee for this one.

395
00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:55,960
Speaker 8: She says it was a tough decision in light of

396
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,600
Speaker 8: what's happened in the area, remembering this is the east

397
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,280
Speaker 8: of christ Church, which is obviously been undergoing all of

398
00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:04,680
Speaker 8: that rebuilding since the quakes, but also given that historic

399
00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:09,199
Speaker 8: significance too. She does say that alternative kindergarten placements have

400
00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:12,960
Speaker 8: been offered to Tamadiki. The building as well as the

401
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:14,720
Speaker 8: block of land will be sold.

402
00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:17,520
Speaker 3: Thinky Claire and the weather today.

403
00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:19,919
Speaker 8: Fine, aside from a bit of plad about this morning

404
00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:23,400
Speaker 8: northeasterlies will be fresh a bit later. The highest twenty.

405
00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:26,280
Speaker 3: Two sounds good. Max Toll is with us now from

406
00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:28,879
Speaker 3: Wellington and it sounds like things are moving at warp

407
00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:33,119
Speaker 3: speed again in Wellington. Max another delay for the Golden

408
00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:33,800
Speaker 3: Mile project.

409
00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:37,600
Speaker 10: Yes, for those who don't know that Golden Mile is

410
00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:41,520
Speaker 10: the very controversial council plan to pedestrianize essentially some central

411
00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:44,760
Speaker 10: Wellington streets, take cars off them, take car parks off,

412
00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:48,679
Speaker 10: the most notably Courtney Place. Our newsroom obviously very across

413
00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:51,320
Speaker 10: the latest developments of the Golden Mile. We noted that

414
00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:55,320
Speaker 10: councilors were told late last year that construction contracts would

415
00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:59,520
Speaker 10: be awarded in December work would begin this month. The

416
00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:04,640
Speaker 10: contract hasn't even happened. Yet this is the mayor's flagship project.

417
00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:08,000
Speaker 10: Of course she campaigned on it. We were told yesterday

418
00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:11,280
Speaker 10: she Tori Fino doesn't even have five minutes this week

419
00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:14,720
Speaker 10: to answer a few simple questions about this new delay.

420
00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:20,399
Speaker 10: We understand the construction contracts are still being negotiated, so

421
00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:23,280
Speaker 10: a little way off work starting. Yet in the meantime,

422
00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:25,840
Speaker 10: you've got businesses in the area fretting, no idea when

423
00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:28,560
Speaker 10: this disruptive work is going to start. Already got months

424
00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:32,439
Speaker 10: of work ahead on the parallel Wakefield Street, which is

425
00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:36,080
Speaker 10: already causing serious interruption. In the meantime, all we can

426
00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:37,400
Speaker 10: do is keep asking questions.

427
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:39,639
Speaker 3: Wellington's weather today, Max.

428
00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:43,359
Speaker 10: Should be fine, Saie still he's twenty four the high central.

429
00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:45,760
Speaker 3: Good to hear, thank you, and neither body man who

430
00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:48,639
Speaker 3: has kind of strutted SIMI danced into the studio to

431
00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:49,159
Speaker 3: join us.

432
00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:49,400
Speaker 7: Now.

433
00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:52,480
Speaker 11: I love how the ear corner is on and you've

434
00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:53,720
Speaker 11: got it quite cool in here.

435
00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:55,320
Speaker 3: But you know how I started the week quite hot

436
00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:56,960
Speaker 3: because you complain and it needs to bring your patha

437
00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:59,000
Speaker 3: jacin and so day started in Monday really warm.

438
00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:02,720
Speaker 11: Just ease you back into it the menopause, because it

439
00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:03,240
Speaker 11: was your.

440
00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:08,600
Speaker 3: First, and then I've just called it down to suit

441
00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:09,920
Speaker 3: the South as the week's gone on.

442
00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:12,120
Speaker 11: No, I like this, this is great, this is okay.

443
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:15,760
Speaker 11: It'll be interesting when Ryan comes in because he will complain.

444
00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:17,560
Speaker 3: But he doesn't do what Mike Hoskin does, who comes

445
00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:19,520
Speaker 3: in and changes the tag before I finished the show.

446
00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:20,719
Speaker 11: Mike changes everything.

447
00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:25,960
Speaker 3: How to do something about it? Have you got something

448
00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:26,440
Speaker 3: to talk about?

449
00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:26,840
Speaker 8: Yes?

450
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:27,240
Speaker 3: I do.

451
00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:31,880
Speaker 11: And homeowners, now would you be happy about this? Going

452
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:33,960
Speaker 11: to face more delays? I don't think this is a

453
00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:36,480
Speaker 11: huge shock. This is in finding out the value of

454
00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:39,840
Speaker 11: their properties. So the release of the latest capital values

455
00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:42,040
Speaker 11: it's now going to be pushed back to may or

456
00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:45,000
Speaker 11: later this year. Now, this is previously being pushed back

457
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:47,200
Speaker 11: from late last year. So it's a delay of a

458
00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:50,159
Speaker 11: delay of a delay, and the delay is due to

459
00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:54,639
Speaker 11: the value at general requesting amendments to ensure accuracy before

460
00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:55,440
Speaker 11: public release.

461
00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:57,879
Speaker 3: Is the problem said about accuracy. I'll just put up

462
00:23:57,880 --> 00:23:59,800
Speaker 3: our venues and put up our rates somehow.

463
00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:00,879
Speaker 7: You know.

464
00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:03,879
Speaker 11: I think people will always complain about that. So the

465
00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:06,520
Speaker 11: good news, though, is it Ron whin Heat. She's from

466
00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:08,879
Speaker 11: the Auckland Council. She's a lot the council is making

467
00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:10,879
Speaker 11: every effort to have them released so they can be

468
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:12,919
Speaker 11: used to see the rates by July. First, do you

469
00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:13,159
Speaker 11: have it?

470
00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:14,320

Speaker 3: Thank you so much, Neva. Next, we're off the UK

474
00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:26,200
Speaker 3: and Europe. You're with a news TXIV. It is seventeen to.

475
00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:30,760
Speaker 2: Six International correspondence with ends and eye insurance, Peace of

476
00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:34,000
Speaker 2: mind for New Zealand business.

477
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:37,840
Speaker 3: It is fifteen to six. Joining me now is Gail Downey,

478
00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:41,280
Speaker 3: our UK and Europe correspondent. And Gail, just a horrible

479
00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:42,520
Speaker 3: story coming out of Turkey.

480
00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:47,359
Speaker 12: Absolutely sixty six people are known to have died in

481
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:50,399
Speaker 12: a fire and it's at a hotel at a ski resort,

482
00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:54,359
Speaker 12: very popular ski resort in Turkey. Two people also died

483
00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:57,600
Speaker 12: trying to jump to safety and the fire broke out

484
00:24:57,640 --> 00:25:00,399
Speaker 12: in the early hours of the morning and took twelve

485
00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:04,120
Speaker 12: hours to put out. The fire service was about an

486
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:07,320
Speaker 12: hour away because of the distance from the resort to

487
00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:10,200
Speaker 12: the nearest town, and although it's only twenty five kilometers,

488
00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:13,439
Speaker 12: of course, the freezing weather conditions being a ski resort

489
00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:18,879
Speaker 12: hampered in terms of the time it takes the crews

490
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:21,560
Speaker 12: to get there. The fire was believed to have been

491
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:24,399
Speaker 12: started in the restaurant on the fourth floor spread to

492
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:28,520
Speaker 12: the rest of the building. Footage being circulated in Turkey

493
00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:33,120
Speaker 12: shows people using linen possibly bedsheets, I guess, hanging from

494
00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:36,960
Speaker 12: windows to escape from the burning building. Four people have

495
00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:41,119
Speaker 12: been arrested, including the owner of the hotel, Gail.

496
00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:45,840
Speaker 3: The UK Prime Minister has announced a public inquiry into

497
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:49,200
Speaker 3: the horrible killing of three young girls at a dance class.

498
00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:50,400
Speaker 3: What's going on here?

499
00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:55,840
Speaker 12: Yes, he actually made the announcement this morning live on

500
00:25:56,240 --> 00:26:01,560
Speaker 12: TV and radio. And what he said is the concern

501
00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:06,240
Speaker 12: that has arisen from Alex Ruder Cabana, who's eighteen years old,

502
00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:10,000
Speaker 12: who pleaded guilty yesterday to murdering the three girls and

503
00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:15,760
Speaker 12: the attempted murder of ten others, plus two terror related charges. Now,

504
00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:19,679
Speaker 12: the terror related charges couldn't be revealed before the case

505
00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:24,800
Speaker 12: because that might have harmed in terms of you know,

506
00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:28,080
Speaker 12: whether someone was innocent or guilty. But because he pleaded

507
00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:31,880
Speaker 12: guilty at the very last minute at the case, these

508
00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:35,720
Speaker 12: have now started to come out. He also admitted producing

509
00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:40,200
Speaker 12: the biological toxin ricin and a charge under the Terrorism

510
00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:45,040
Speaker 12: Act related to possessing an Al Qaeda training manual and Sirkir.

511
00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:49,600
Speaker 12: Starmer's concern is that he says the UK faces a

512
00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:52,919
Speaker 12: new threat and that terrorism has changed. He said the

513
00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:57,080
Speaker 12: threat now comes from extreme violence carried out by Lona's

514
00:26:57,160 --> 00:27:00,400
Speaker 12: misfits and young men in their bedrooms. Acts has seen

515
00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:06,240
Speaker 12: dangerous material online and the Home Secretary today told MP's

516
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:08,639
Speaker 12: in the Housard Commons At Cooper said it was a

517
00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:12,119
Speaker 12: disgrace that Axel Ruder Cabana had also been able to

518
00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:15,040
Speaker 12: buy a knife from Amazon when he was just seventeen

519
00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:19,040
Speaker 12: years old, even though he had a previous conviction for violence.

520
00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:21,640
Speaker 3: Gail, thank you so much for the updates. I appreciate that.

521
00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:24,879
Speaker 3: That was UK and Europe correspondent to Gail Downey. It

522
00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:26,679
Speaker 3: is eleven to six.

523
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:28,400
Speaker 1: As it be right.

524
00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:31,960
Speaker 3: We're getting inflation figures today. Economists of forecasting it could

525
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:34,879
Speaker 3: fall between two point one to two point three percent,

526
00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:38,720
Speaker 3: which is within the Reserve Bank's target range, ensured Ier

527
00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:41,960
Speaker 3: Deputy Chief Executive Christina Lung joins me. Now, good morning,

528
00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:45,200
Speaker 3: Christina mordnna. What's your pick.

529
00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:49,040
Speaker 13: We for cast CPI to increase point six percent over

530
00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:51,360
Speaker 13: the final quarter of last year. Now, this will bring

531
00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:53,879
Speaker 13: in your CPI inflation to two point two percent for

532
00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:56,359
Speaker 13: the year, as you say, still within the Reserve banks

533
00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:59,560
Speaker 13: one to three percent inflation target. Then, so for the quarter,

534
00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:02,280
Speaker 13: we do expect that housing costs such as rents and

535
00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:05,080
Speaker 13: construction costs to be a key driver behind the increasing

536
00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:06,160
Speaker 13: prices out of the quarter.

537
00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:08,639
Speaker 3: Because I was going to say, this inflation data is

538
00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:11,600
Speaker 3: for December, so what factors will be taken into account

539
00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:13,920
Speaker 3: during that period aside from those two things.

540
00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:19,399
Speaker 13: So besides the CPI results itself, we do see a

541
00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:22,880
Speaker 13: suite of other inflation indicators. For example, we are seeing

542
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:25,840
Speaker 13: it continue easing and inflation pressures in the New s economy.

543
00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:30,119
Speaker 13: Our latest NDAR quarter less this opinion shows some easing

544
00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:33,480
Speaker 13: and cost pressures reported by firms, while proportion of firms

545
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:36,720
Speaker 13: raising prices in the December quarter remain low. So although

546
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:39,880
Speaker 13: firms are feeling positive about a recovery and demand a head,

547
00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:43,200
Speaker 13: at the moment, demand conditions do remain weak and this

548
00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:45,160
Speaker 13: is weighing on the price and power of firms.

549
00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:47,280
Speaker 3: So Christina, how is this going to set us up

550
00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:50,320
Speaker 3: for this year? How are you expecting inflation to track?

551
00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:56,440
Speaker 13: So we do see a list in inflation over the

552
00:28:56,520 --> 00:28:59,480
Speaker 13: coming year, but still comfortable and within the Reserve banks

553
00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:03,000
Speaker 13: one to three percent inflation tiger band. The recent depreciation

554
00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:05,600
Speaker 13: in the New Zone dollar does post some upside rest

555
00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:09,040
Speaker 13: to inflation, given that raises the price of important goods.

556
00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:12,280
Speaker 13: So already in our MZAAR quarterly surve our Business Opinion,

557
00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:16,600
Speaker 13: we had retailers reporting increased cost pressures and we expect

558
00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:18,400
Speaker 13: that the low New Zealand dollar to have played a

559
00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:20,440
Speaker 13: part in this. So the impact of the low New

560
00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:23,400
Speaker 13: Zealand dollar on inflation is definitely an important development to

561
00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:26,120
Speaker 13: keep an eye on for now, though the signs are

562
00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:30,640
Speaker 13: that inflation is contained and within the Reserve banks target bands.

563
00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:33,800
Speaker 13: The Reserve Bank had indicated that late last year it's

564
00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:37,240
Speaker 13: intended to cut interest rates by another fifty basis point

565
00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:40,120
Speaker 13: at the February meeting, and we don't see recent development

566
00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:41,400
Speaker 13: standing in the way of that.

567
00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:44,040
Speaker 3: You mentioned the week New Zealand dollar there. What about

568
00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:47,000
Speaker 3: higher oil prices? Could they impact inflation this year?

569
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:51,280
Speaker 13: Certainly? So, you do tend to see the low New

570
00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:54,960
Speaker 13: Zealand dollar that impact. The more immediate impact that comes

571
00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:57,920
Speaker 13: through in petrol prices at the pump and also crude

572
00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:00,920
Speaker 13: all price global crude all prices play, but when it

573
00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:03,520
Speaker 13: comes to what we pay for petrol here in New Zealand,

574
00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:07,440
Speaker 13: over the longer term, New Zealand dollar does have teends

575
00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:09,600
Speaker 13: to have been more lagged impact on a range of

576
00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:13,040
Speaker 13: other household important household goods. So you do tend to

577
00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:16,240
Speaker 13: see that comes through in the next few quarters. When

578
00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:18,120
Speaker 13: it comes to the impact of the lower New Zealand

579
00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:20,360
Speaker 13: dollar on prices on the retail front.

580
00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:24,920
Speaker 3: You mentioned half percentage point cut to the official cash rate.

581
00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:27,560
Speaker 3: When do you sort of expect that When would you

582
00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:28,640
Speaker 3: expect that to kick in?

583
00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:33,440
Speaker 13: So back in late last year, the Reserve Bank had

584
00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:37,240
Speaker 13: indicated that it would look to cut the oco bernarda

585
00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:41,200
Speaker 13: fifty basis point in its February meeting and then and

586
00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:46,400
Speaker 13: for the further easing to be more measured beyond that. Certainly,

587
00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:49,360
Speaker 13: when we look at what the recent to continue easing

588
00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:54,600
Speaker 13: and inflation pressures, it does suggest that recent developments are

589
00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:57,400
Speaker 13: on track in line with the Reserve banks full past,

590
00:30:57,480 --> 00:30:59,640
Speaker 13: so we do expect that it will follow through with

591
00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:02,240
Speaker 13: that the basis point cut in its February metum.

592
00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:04,800
Speaker 3: Okay, cool, what is the impact do you think of

593
00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:08,880
Speaker 3: Trump's tariffs and potential tariffs.

594
00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:13,000
Speaker 13: So there has been concern about the inflationary the potential

595
00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:17,200
Speaker 13: inflationary impact of physical policies in the US. So that

596
00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:20,480
Speaker 13: will be an influence in terms of the longer term

597
00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:24,280
Speaker 13: path of interest rates. The fact that there's already a

598
00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:28,240
Speaker 13: discussion about the potential with the inflation impact for interest

599
00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:30,960
Speaker 13: rates to be high for longer in the US. So

600
00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:35,120
Speaker 13: that does play a part in terms of particularly with

601
00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:39,240
Speaker 13: the impact on the New Zone dollar with interstrate differentials.

602
00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:42,239
Speaker 13: If interest rates were to stay higher for longer in

603
00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:46,040
Speaker 13: the US, then that potentially continues to put down with

604
00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:48,560
Speaker 13: pressure on the New Zone dollar, and that plays a

605
00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:50,920
Speaker 13: part in terms of the price of important goods here.

606
00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:54,000
Speaker 13: Certainly it could play a part in terms of the

607
00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:58,720
Speaker 13: other factors such as how those prices global prices feed

608
00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:00,560
Speaker 13: into prices here in these as well.

609
00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:02,520
Speaker 3: A lot to keep our eye on this year.

610
00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:06,360
Speaker 13: Christina certainly never told moment.

611
00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:08,680
Speaker 3: Always good to talk, Thank you so much. That was

612
00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:13,360
Speaker 3: Christina Leung who is the deputy Chief Executive at n

613
00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:17,400
Speaker 3: Z I E R. And so, of course those inflation

614
00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:22,480
Speaker 3: figures will be out today. It is six to six.

615
