1 00:00:02,759 --> 00:00:08,680 Speaker 1: Questions, answers, facts, analysis, The Drive show you trust for 2 00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:12,760 Speaker 1: the full picture. Heather Duperic on Drive with One New 3 00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:15,600 Speaker 1: Zealand Let's get connected news talks that'd be. 4 00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:18,080 Speaker 2: Afternoon. 5 00:00:18,120 --> 00:00:18,840 Speaker 3: Welcome to the show. 6 00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:21,200 Speaker 2: Coming up today, Brook van Balden, the minister who is 7 00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:23,720 Speaker 2: stopping all pay equity claims. After five, we're going to 8 00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:27,080 Speaker 2: talk to an expert about whether Israel really can take 9 00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:28,880 Speaker 2: over all of the Gaza strip like it wants to. 10 00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:32,280 Speaker 2: And also and an ai a education expert on where 11 00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:34,440 Speaker 2: the handwriting exams is really the only way to go. 12 00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:36,920 Speaker 4: Heather duple Cylan, let me tell you. 13 00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:39,200 Speaker 2: That decision today is stop all those pay equity claims 14 00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:42,680 Speaker 2: as ballsy. I mean, you know, ballsy is good. I 15 00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:44,800 Speaker 2: think I lean towards thinking this is the right thing 16 00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:47,159 Speaker 2: to do. Those pay equity claims have been a bit random. 17 00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:49,520 Speaker 2: I don't know if you know how this works, but basically, 18 00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:52,599 Speaker 2: if people can prove that they are underpaid because they 19 00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:56,320 Speaker 2: work in women dominated jobs, then they can get a 20 00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:59,280 Speaker 2: pay rise. And how they prove this is by finding 21 00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:01,240 Speaker 2: men who are doing it similar job and then showing 22 00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:03,160 Speaker 2: that there is a difference in pay. But the problem 23 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:07,320 Speaker 2: is it really isn't comparing oranges apples with apples, right, 24 00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:12,400 Speaker 2: it's often apples with oranges. For example, librarians. Librarians are 25 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:15,520 Speaker 2: currently trying to get a pay rise by comparing themselves 26 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:19,520 Speaker 2: to traffic engineers. Now, no disrespect whatsoever to librarians, but 27 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:22,480 Speaker 2: the Dewey decimal system is not that hard. I'm pretty 28 00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:23,920 Speaker 2: sure that most of us could learn to do it 29 00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:26,679 Speaker 2: and become librarians in about twenty minutes flat. I think 30 00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:28,840 Speaker 2: it takes a little bit longer to train up as 31 00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:32,040 Speaker 2: an engineer who specializes in designing and planning and constructing 32 00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 2: and operating and maintaining a transport system. And the same 33 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:37,800 Speaker 2: goes with the admin health staff who are trying to 34 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:41,039 Speaker 2: compare themselves to mechanical engineers. And the same goes with 35 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:43,319 Speaker 2: the social workers who are trying to compare themselves to 36 00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:45,720 Speaker 2: traffic air traffic controllers. You can see the trouble here 37 00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:49,720 Speaker 2: right now. From what I understand, what Brook van Belden 38 00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:52,200 Speaker 2: has done today is going to save the country billions 39 00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 2: of dollars in the budget that we're getting in two 40 00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:57,040 Speaker 2: weeks time, apparently, And I'm going to check this out 41 00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:59,200 Speaker 2: with the Minister when she's with us after five. But 42 00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 2: Apparently this is one of, if not the single biggest 43 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:05,800 Speaker 2: savings in the budget and apparently over four years accounts 44 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 2: for something well and well well higher than ten billion dollars. 45 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,400 Speaker 2: That is a significant amount of money and as we know, 46 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:16,160 Speaker 2: the country is financially stuffed. However, someone will pay for this, 47 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 2: and it's going to be the government. They will be 48 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 2: punished for this in political capital in the years to 49 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:24,960 Speaker 2: come because this attack basically rights itself. Heartless government takes 50 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:28,480 Speaker 2: money from underpaid working women and that is why it 51 00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 2: is so ballsy, because the pay equity system is clearly 52 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:33,360 Speaker 2: when you look at the detail, deeply flawed. I mean, 53 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 2: it's a lovely idea, let's pay women more, but the 54 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 2: system that we use to do that is deeply, deeply 55 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:42,600 Speaker 2: flawed and obviously needs this overhaul. But the politics of 56 00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:44,119 Speaker 2: it going to be very very rough. 57 00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:45,520 Speaker 1: Heather due for. 58 00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 2: Nine two is the text under standard text fees Apployer, 59 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:50,640 Speaker 2: you welcomed way in. Now on another subject altogether, the 60 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:53,760 Speaker 2: National Party has revealed that it wants to ban social 61 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,640 Speaker 2: media for under sixteen year olds. One of the MP's 62 00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 2: took he took emp Catherine wid where it is submitting 63 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:01,960 Speaker 2: a submitting rather a member's bill that will put the 64 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:05,800 Speaker 2: responsibility of age verification on the social media companies, and 65 00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:08,520 Speaker 2: this is supported by the Prime Minister. Stephen Sheler is 66 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:11,359 Speaker 2: the former CEO of Facebook for Australia and New Zealand. 67 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:14,960 Speaker 2: Has Stephen Hi heather good idea to ban the under sixteens. 68 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:19,480 Speaker 5: I think it's a good idea in principle. I think 69 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 5: the challenge is going to be doing it in practice. 70 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 5: But I do think that evidence shows that younger people 71 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 5: there's harm to them. I think that they need to 72 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:32,359 Speaker 5: be protected from and as we know, we kids kids 73 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 5: younger than thirteen are not allowed on social media. I 74 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 5: know if money find it a way around that, but 75 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 5: I think there's a good, strong evidence to show that 76 00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 5: sixteen is a good age for that sort of level. 77 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,040 Speaker 2: What's the practical problem. Is it difficult for the social 78 00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 2: media guys to actually confirm the kids age. 79 00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 5: Well, there's a lot that these platforms can do in 80 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 5: terms of using AI other verification methods to try to 81 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 5: discern what your real age is. However, I think when 82 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 5: you come to these levels where there's sort of penalties 83 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:08,440 Speaker 5: that apply and there's going to be a bigger regime, 84 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 5: you then then start to ask questions, well, okay, well, 85 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 5: how is this going to be verified? Most kids don't 86 00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 5: have Many kids don't have ID that you know, that's uh, 87 00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:19,840 Speaker 5: that's that has their not like adults who are driver's 88 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:23,120 Speaker 5: license and passports and things. So how they can confirm 89 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:26,719 Speaker 5: their age or not confirm their age? What happens when 90 00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 5: that there's a deception? What do the platforms do? What 91 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 5: do the platforms do in terms of storing this data? 92 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 5: Do we really want them to have this data? There's 93 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 5: a there is complexity in making it work. And look, 94 00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:40,280 Speaker 5: we've all been teenagers before. You know, you're not supposed 95 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 5: to buy alcohol or buy tobacco, and many kids get 96 00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:45,280 Speaker 5: around this, maybe some of us have on the we're 97 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 5: listening today, but with social media it's the same, and 98 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 5: that there's there's lots of ways trying to get around 99 00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 5: these these prohibitions. So I think it's it's good in theory, 100 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:55,680 Speaker 5: but it's always the devil's off in the detail of 101 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 5: how the government proposes to enforce this and what penalties 102 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:00,600 Speaker 5: are proposing to put on the play forms. If it's 103 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:01,239 Speaker 5: not enforced. 104 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 2: Steve and you have kids, say I do, yeah, and 105 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:07,560 Speaker 2: so what are your rules around social media use. 106 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 4: For good or for bad. 107 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 5: My kids are probably too young to even quite know 108 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 5: what social media is. 109 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 4: I want. 110 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:20,360 Speaker 5: But we've and this has come into a lot of 111 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 5: folks who've worked at the big social media platforms. 112 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 4: I think. 113 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 5: I'm not unusual in this that there is a there's 114 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,480 Speaker 5: a realization that for all the good that the Internet 115 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 5: and for social media and that AI have done for economy, 116 00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:39,160 Speaker 5: the society, for you know, for all kinds of good 117 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 5: benefits that come from these platforms, the challenges are for 118 00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:47,840 Speaker 5: certain people, particularly vulnerable folks in our society, such as 119 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 5: kids or young teens, social media may be simply an 120 00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:55,640 Speaker 5: overwhelming technology that their brains simply involved enough to be 121 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 5: able to deal with. And we've done this with tobacco 122 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:01,480 Speaker 5: and with alcohol and other things to try to even 123 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 5: driving a car right. You restrict it to a certain age, 124 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 5: and then we ease people into it, and I think 125 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 5: the time has come with social media. So I'm a 126 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:11,920 Speaker 5: big believer that the thirteen is too young. I think 127 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:14,279 Speaker 5: the limits should be higher. I've seen evidence of success. 128 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:17,520 Speaker 5: Sixteen is about is a good number. Some have advocated 129 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 5: even higher, sort of eighteen twenty. I think there you 130 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 5: get into practical challenges that we treat people as adults 131 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 5: when they turn eighteen. For most of us society, it's 132 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:28,320 Speaker 5: probably gonna be hard to restrict social media past a 133 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 5: certain age. But I think sixteen sounds like a reasonable number. 134 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:36,040 Speaker 5: With my kids, you know, we do in a way. 135 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 5: They're more aware about social media's challenges than I am, 136 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 5: because they come home and tell me, you know, you know, 137 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 5: these are the reasons why we need to control our 138 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:47,560 Speaker 5: social media usage. And I think that's some of the 139 00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:50,040 Speaker 5: things that are being taught in school, which I think 140 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 5: is good. 141 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:51,880 Speaker 4: There's a lot more awareness of. 142 00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 5: Their age now about the challenges of some of these platforms, 143 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 5: the good things and the bad things. 144 00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:58,040 Speaker 2: Steven, it's really good to talk to you. I really 145 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:00,240 Speaker 2: appreciate your time. Thanks so much, as Steven Sheila, former 146 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:04,839 Speaker 2: Facebook Australia New Zealand CEO Heather How much someone gets 147 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 2: paid isn't just about how difficult the role is. It's 148 00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 2: also about how many people are prepared to do that 149 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 2: often unappealing work. It's pretty hard to find aged care workers, 150 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 2: for example, and while on the face of it is 151 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 2: a simple work, it's actually complex and very hard.

He's a really 177 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 2: big deal in this particular field. 178 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:34,160 Speaker 6: He was running at the next level down the Supersport Championship. 179 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 7: Just the supports to the. 180 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 6: British Superbike Series.

I said 187 00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 6: this so many times before. When you see a big 188 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:00,000 Speaker 6: X and a motorsport the mount of people at the 189 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:02,440 Speaker 6: go yeah, check that out and I just get the 190 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 6: sinking feeling of my stomach. 191 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 2: Was it an eleven pile up? 192 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:05,880 Speaker 8: Ye? 193 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:06,880 Speaker 9: What happened? 194 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:12,240 Speaker 6: A rider lost control after the first right hand. It 195 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:16,720 Speaker 6: was the third race of the weekend and just and 196 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:20,680 Speaker 6: that was just a domino effect after that, so ten 197 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:27,439 Speaker 6: other riders hit and yeah, unfortunately it's I mean unfortunately, 198 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 6: it's not the right words. This is tragic. He's lost 199 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:32,360 Speaker 6: his life. And you don't lose your life when you 200 00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 6: go to play a game. But this is the thing 201 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:39,920 Speaker 6: about motorsport is the ultimate sacrifice is not even in 202 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 6: your control. It can be moments away someone else made 203 00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 6: the wrong call, someone else made that right and also inches. 204 00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:52,719 Speaker 6: There's a Scott Dixon documentary which is fascinating, and that's 205 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:56,440 Speaker 6: when he had a massive crash in Indianapolis and the 206 00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 6: car hit the pit wall and it missed his cockpit 207 00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:04,200 Speaker 6: by probably about a meter and that was it. Emma 208 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 6: Davis Dixon, his wife, said, I saw that and I thought, oh, 209 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 6: it's my turn. 210 00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:12,520 Speaker 3: I e it's my. 211 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:16,200 Speaker 6: Turn to be a widow. That out of that whole film, 212 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:17,840 Speaker 6: that's what I walked away with. 213 00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:18,720 Speaker 4: The most stunned. 214 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:21,800 Speaker 2: So so I imagine for the people who love these 215 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:23,960 Speaker 2: guys who do and it's generally guys who do this 216 00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 2: kind of racing, the day that they retire as a 217 00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 2: very happy day for everybody, for the family, for the 218 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:29,560 Speaker 2: people who love them. 219 00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:32,200 Speaker 6: Now, the thing is, this is the sport that they love. 220 00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:35,880 Speaker 6: The adrenaline, the speed, everything it's integral to. This sport 221 00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:39,400 Speaker 6: can also result in the ultimate sacrifice. 222 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:43,200 Speaker 2: Totally listen. I'm speaking of hurting yourself. And what does 223 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 2: it surprise anybody at all that rugby is the sport 224 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 2: that generates the most A sec claims. 225 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:50,200 Speaker 6: Probably not that'll expect quite a few people jogging would 226 00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:52,120 Speaker 6: probably do themselves injuries, wouldn't they Because. 227 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 2: Once ran and fell over and broke his finger while 228 00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 2: jogging while jogging. 229 00:10:57,520 --> 00:10:59,560 Speaker 6: Well, that's a lot of people doing ankles and doing 230 00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 6: this now. But according to the ACC back in twenty 231 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 6: twenty four, one hundred and forty eight million dollars of 232 00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 6: public money yeares for ACC for rugby players. 233 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,079 Speaker 2: I think we should stop rugby. What do you think? 234 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:19,400 Speaker 6: No, no, it's just maybe pau Bill. 235 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 2: Just ban rugby banners. 236 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:23,760 Speaker 6: Well no, no, carry on doing it. But we're so 237 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 6: lucky in this country.

So remember, you should ban the rugger. 242 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 6: What means you ban everything?

Aw, 258 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:28,720 Speaker 1: it's hither, dupers and drive with one New Zealand let's 259 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 1: get connected news talks. 260 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:31,640 Speaker 2: That'd be good afternoon. 261 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:31,880 Speaker 6: Hither. 262 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 2: If a male librarian gets paid the same as a 263 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:37,560 Speaker 2: female librarian, then that's pay equity. However, if she wants 264 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:39,480 Speaker 2: to be paid the same as an air traffic controller, 265 00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:40,960 Speaker 2: she should go and do the training and get a 266 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:43,680 Speaker 2: job as an air traffic controller. Chris, I tend to 267 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:45,560 Speaker 2: agree with you on that one, because Nick Minuett, we're 268 00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:48,640 Speaker 2: going to be doing the old nurses saying, now orthopedic 269 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:50,560 Speaker 2: surgeons are paid more than asked me to be paying 270 00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:52,520 Speaker 2: the same. You know, we're speaking of the nurses were 271 00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:54,640 Speaker 2: are going to speak to the nurses organization after six 272 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 2: o'clock to get there. I don't know who they are 273 00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 2: comparing themselves to. You, Laura, do you know who the 274 00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:01,880 Speaker 2: nurses are comparing themselves to. No, anyway, we'll ask We'll 275 00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 2: ask them who they're comparing themselves to when they're with 276 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:06,960 Speaker 2: us after six, because that should be an interesting exercise. Also, 277 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:10,720 Speaker 2: by the way, the hacker. There was a faint hope 278 00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:13,080 Speaker 2: that we might get a decision from the Privileges Commission 279 00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:16,960 Speaker 2: to committee today about the Marimps doing the Haucker, but 280 00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:19,920 Speaker 2: that decision has been postponed. I don't know for how long, 281 00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:21,880 Speaker 2: and we'll find out from Jason Walls when he's with 282 00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:25,080 Speaker 2: us out of Parliament and about let's say twenty minutes 283 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 2: time or thereabouts. It's twenty five past four at the moment. Now. 284 00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:31,600 Speaker 2: If you were listening last night to Nicola on the 285 00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:34,080 Speaker 2: show Nichola's with Us every Monday at six o'clock, you 286 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 2: might have been left with the impression that Nicola doesn't 287 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:38,600 Speaker 2: do the naughty thing that Erica was doing with the 288 00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:41,320 Speaker 2: emails and the gmails. Nicola, do you send any of 289 00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:43,880 Speaker 2: your person your emails to your Gmail account by any chance. 290 00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 10: Look, I don't think so. To be honest, I don't 291 00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:50,960 Speaker 10: send many emails at all. I've got an incredible team 292 00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:53,320 Speaker 10: of people who do that for me. My tend to 293 00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:56,440 Speaker 10: send the odd text or WhatsApp message and that's about it. 294 00:13:57,640 --> 00:13:59,679 Speaker 2: Nicholas, I had to think about it. Turns out Nicholas 295 00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:02,040 Speaker 2: been doing what Eric has been doing. Also Chris Bishop's 296 00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:03,559 Speaker 2: been doing what Eric has been doing. How many of 297 00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 2: them have been doing what Eric has been doing? What 298 00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:08,880 Speaker 2: so both of all three of them, all three, there's 299 00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:11,160 Speaker 2: a pattern. All three of them have had to do 300 00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:13,600 Speaker 2: it because printing issues. Because remember that's why Erica was 301 00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:15,120 Speaker 2: doing it, because she couldn't use the printer in the 302 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,640 Speaker 2: Electorate office because it wasn't hooked up to the Parliamentary network. 303 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:20,080 Speaker 2: And Bishop said he's done the same thing because he 304 00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:22,960 Speaker 2: also needed to use a printer. And Nicola. Nicola has 305 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:24,760 Speaker 2: said to us she wasn't fibbing to us, and I 306 00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 2: believe her. Actually she wasn't fibbing to us. She just 307 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:29,480 Speaker 2: forgot that. She went back and had a look and 308 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:32,680 Speaker 2: there was one email and apparently she sent draft speech 309 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:35,600 Speaker 2: notes from her ministerial account to her personal account because 310 00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 2: she was in a hotel room and she needed to 311 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:39,440 Speaker 2: print it. And today she remembered and you know what, 312 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 2: I still don't care about this. Do you care about this? 313 00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:45,640 Speaker 2: I mean, technically it's not good and blah blah blah 314 00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:47,760 Speaker 2: and whatever. And apparently One News has got another expos 315 00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:50,480 Speaker 2: i on it tonight, and the guys, it's actually a 316 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:54,000 Speaker 2: labor oia A labour's done the Official Information Act request. 317 00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 2: Labor got the information, handed some of it to aren 318 00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:58,600 Speaker 2: Zed Radio in New Zealand, handed some of it to 319 00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 2: TV and Z. Labor's been going around saying whoo, there's 320 00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:04,640 Speaker 2: more to care. So I'm going to reserve my judgment. 321 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:07,320 Speaker 2: We'll see what more there is to come tonight. But 322 00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:09,920 Speaker 2: that's far. I'm just not all that stressed out because 323 00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:12,280 Speaker 2: it's just a theoretical problem, right, It's not that I mean, 324 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 2: it's not like Nicola and Erica and Chris Bishop were 325 00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:21,040 Speaker 2: not organizing a war on their personal accounts. So anyway, 326 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:24,520 Speaker 2: we'll see how that goes. We'll talk about it tomorrow. 327 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:25,760 Speaker 2: I'm sure headline's next. 328 00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:31,840 Speaker 3: Last Night no elas Night. 329 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:40,880 Speaker 1: Recapping the day's big news and making tomorrow's headlines.

They all 341 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:23,160 Speaker 2: thought they're going to be, you know, on the old computer. 342 00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:25,480 Speaker 2: They thought that'll be No, they've just been told they'll 343 00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:29,880 Speaker 2: be doing the handwriting because unfortunately Victoria University and basically 344 00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:32,400 Speaker 2: no one has the technology to be able to detect 345 00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 2: the old DAYI and the cheating and stuff like that. 346 00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:37,240 Speaker 2: The problem is, as you can imagine, and this is 347 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:40,880 Speaker 2: a real life, real world, first world problem, not many 348 00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 2: people nowadays can say that they actually have the hand 349 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:48,040 Speaker 2: stamina to write for three hours. Don't laugh at that, 350 00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:53,280 Speaker 2: because if you remember when you're at university or at school, 351 00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:56,440 Speaker 2: you did need hand stamina. You know that little muscle 352 00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:59,680 Speaker 2: if you put your fore finger up to your thumb 353 00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:01,120 Speaker 2: and you is hard and you make the kind of 354 00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:03,040 Speaker 2: tear drop shapes. You know what I mean? That little muscle, 355 00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:05,320 Speaker 2: that bulge is right there at the base of your thumb. 356 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:07,240 Speaker 2: You got a big one of those when you're do 357 00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:09,600 Speaker 2: you remember that I got a real chunky one of 358 00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:12,160 Speaker 2: those when I was at school. Because handwriting so much nowadays, 359 00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:14,119 Speaker 2: I don't know if I could do forty minutes or 360 00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:16,239 Speaker 2: the pen So anyway, I do feel bad for them. 361 00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 2: Many of them will never have written a three hour exam, 362 00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 2: or if they have, it will be hours, like weeks, years, months, months, years, 363 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:25,879 Speaker 2: ages ago since they did it. They're not going to 364 00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:29,160 Speaker 2: have the muscle for it. Anyway. On a serious note, 365 00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:31,080 Speaker 2: I mean, are we ever going to get the technology 366 00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 2: to be able to crack down on this. We're going 367 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:34,480 Speaker 2: to talk to an AI expert who actually focuses on 368 00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:36,880 Speaker 2: the education stuff in about an hour's time. It's twenty 369 00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:37,720 Speaker 2: three away from five. 370 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:41,520 Speaker 1: It's the world wires on youth talks. They'd be drive. 371 00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:45,080 Speaker 2: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Nana who has promised a renewed 372 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:48,200 Speaker 2: defensive against Gaza Now He says, the israel Defense forces 373 00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:50,159 Speaker 2: are going to occupy parts of the Gaza Strip and 374 00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:53,960 Speaker 2: then relocate the entire civilian population there to the south 375 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,680 Speaker 2: of the enclave. A Middle East expert from the University 376 00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,360 Speaker 2: of Singapore says some parties in the Israeli government want 377 00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:02,160 Speaker 2: to occupy the Jaza Strip for ideological reasons. 378 00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:06,240 Speaker 11: You have far right members in this government will still 379 00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:10,680 Speaker 11: remember two thousand and five when Israel decided to remove 380 00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:15,480 Speaker 11: Israeli military and settlements from the Gaza st For them, 381 00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:18,000 Speaker 11: it's actually a return now over. 382 00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:20,720 Speaker 2: In Australia, Liberal senator says the party was let down 383 00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:24,000 Speaker 2: by its polsters and strategists. The coalition performed much worse 384 00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:27,520 Speaker 2: than anyone had predicted in the weekend's election. Here's Tasmania 385 00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:29,520 Speaker 2: Senator Jonathan dunneham. 386 00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:33,240 Speaker 12: We had bad polsters giving us bad numbers, way off 387 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:35,040 Speaker 12: the mark, totally out of line with all of the 388 00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 12: published polling. Our own polling here in Tasmania pointed to 389 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:40,680 Speaker 12: the wipeout we ultimately got. So we were let down 390 00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:45,480 Speaker 12: by polsters and strategists, which frankly gave us a bum 391 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:47,240 Speaker 12: steer of the worst order. 392 00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:49,600 Speaker 2: And finally some bad news for Donald Trump and his 393 00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,720 Speaker 2: plan to reopen Alcatraz Prison of Fox News at legal 394 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:55,679 Speaker 2: analyst says, the islander is federal land, so the government 395 00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:57,399 Speaker 2: is allowed to build on it, but there's still a 396 00:18:57,440 --> 00:18:58,959 Speaker 2: couple of potential roadblocks. 397 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:01,760 Speaker 13: But it'd have to be rebuilt almost entirely, and so 398 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:05,280 Speaker 13: outdated and crumbling. And here's the important part. It has 399 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:10,240 Speaker 13: landmarks status, so there would be an avalanche of lawsuits 400 00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:12,359 Speaker 13: that would probably tie it up for years. 401 00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:13,520 Speaker 3: You know, don't forget. 402 00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:18,119 Speaker 1: This is California International Correspondence with ends and Eye Insurance, 403 00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:20,320 Speaker 1: peace of mind for New Zealand business. 404 00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:22,800 Speaker 2: Marie Old's Australia Correspondents with us. 405 00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:25,480 Speaker 4: Heyms, good to you. 406 00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:28,920 Speaker 2: Who is going to succeed, doesn't well. 407 00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:31,800 Speaker 14: It's a good question who on earth would want the job? 408 00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:33,959 Speaker 14: I mean, here's some facts and figures where I heard 409 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 14: Penny Wong, the Foreign Minister this morning. The coalition right, 410 00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:39,919 Speaker 14: the Conservatives of a year, they've got seven out of 411 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:43,840 Speaker 14: eighty eight metropolitan seats. They've got four left in Sydney, 412 00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:46,720 Speaker 14: two or three in Melbourne and Brisbane, not an adelaide 413 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:50,000 Speaker 14: in Perth, not one seat in all of Tasmania. That's 414 00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:53,720 Speaker 14: a scale of this disaster. It's a smoking ruin and 415 00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:57,119 Speaker 14: it's never been this bad since Mensis Sir Robert Menzie 416 00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 14: set this party up just after the Second World War. 417 00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:03,000 Speaker 14: Albanize is the first prime minister to win a second 418 00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:06,440 Speaker 14: term in twenty one years increased majority. There's still about 419 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:09,600 Speaker 14: a dozen seats that are being counted. But as we 420 00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:13,080 Speaker 14: go to wear this afternoon, we've got it. 421 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:13,840 Speaker 4: Looks a bit like this. 422 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:16,879 Speaker 14: Eighty five, eighty six, eighty seven seats to Labor, fewer 423 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:20,040 Speaker 14: than forty seats for the Liberals in the National Party. 424 00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 14: And you say, who's going to lead it? As I said, 425 00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:25,040 Speaker 14: who the hell wants it? The youngest man perhaps the 426 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:29,440 Speaker 14: generational change they should look at in Perth Andrew Hasty. 427 00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:33,119 Speaker 14: He is the shadow Foreign Minister. He's served tours of 428 00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:35,800 Speaker 14: duty in Afghanistan and Iraq. He says, your kidding, I 429 00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:38,439 Speaker 14: don't want it. So we've got one woman, Susan Lee, 430 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:41,800 Speaker 14: who was Peter Dutton's deputy don't forget Dutton lost, And 431 00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:44,880 Speaker 14: you've got Dan teen, long serving veteran. And you've got 432 00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:47,720 Speaker 14: Angus Taylor, who many people over here, a lot of 433 00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:50,320 Speaker 14: the inside of the Liberal Party too, are saying he's 434 00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:53,760 Speaker 14: the guy single handedly crueled the charts of the Liberal Party. 435 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:56,600 Speaker 14: This guy is a Rhodes scholar, but I swear to 436 00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:58,400 Speaker 14: God here it's as though he's been doing push ups 437 00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:01,359 Speaker 14: under a park car. Just sounds like a dummy. And 438 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:04,840 Speaker 14: whenever he was asked about any economic policies at all, 439 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:08,600 Speaker 14: he had nothing to say. In fact, he and Dutton 440 00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:11,880 Speaker 14: with about you know, they put them up almost exclusively. 441 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:14,679 Speaker 14: He had nothing to say in order Peter Dutton, and 442 00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:17,480 Speaker 14: you look at who voted for whom. You've got all 443 00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:20,119 Speaker 14: the women, all the young voters, all the migrants. They 444 00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:23,719 Speaker 14: went labor big time. I mean, who's voting for Dutton. 445 00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:26,920 Speaker 14: It's a small it's a tied to the right wing 446 00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:31,919 Speaker 14: rump of wealthy sixty seventy eighty year olds, and they're diminishing, 447 00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:34,480 Speaker 14: dropping off the twig and all the ansters are coming through. 448 00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:37,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, I take your point. It's not a bad one. 449 00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:40,000 Speaker 2: Do you see what the West pap boss has said 450 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:42,240 Speaker 2: that the cost of living crisis is behind us? 451 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:44,919 Speaker 14: Well, yeah, I mean he had some pretty good figures 452 00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:47,000 Speaker 14: he took over. His name is where his name? I've 453 00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 14: got it here. Anthony Miller, thank you very much. I 454 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:52,359 Speaker 14: knew I had no margin. He took over December first, 455 00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:57,320 Speaker 14: first six months three point three billion dollars profit, so 456 00:21:57,480 --> 00:21:58,600 Speaker 14: he started in the right note. 457 00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:00,680 Speaker 4: The market didn't like it that much, want more. 458 00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:04,160 Speaker 14: But indeed, mister Miller has said listen, Labour's re election 459 00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:08,480 Speaker 14: is not only good for the government, but it provides 460 00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:13,480 Speaker 14: consistency and certainty for Australia both domestically and abroad. And 461 00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 14: he says the government must use its mandate. That's a 462 00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:19,000 Speaker 14: huge mandate, heathern As you can appreciate a huge mandate. 463 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:21,960 Speaker 14: And what Miller is saying now from Westpac, the government's 464 00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:24,000 Speaker 14: got to use this wisely. He says, Labor's got the 465 00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:27,480 Speaker 14: chance to drive the economy by, for example, by boosting productivity. 466 00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:30,680 Speaker 14: That's one big handbreak over here. That's a national challenge. 467 00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 14: It's got to seek ways as well, he says, to 468 00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:36,280 Speaker 14: reduce our reliance on China by far best country's biggest 469 00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:38,960 Speaker 14: trading partner. And he says, listen, there's going to be 470 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:41,080 Speaker 14: an interest rate cup they think at a fortnite when 471 00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:44,280 Speaker 14: the Reserve Bank meets. That's going to also, you know, 472 00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:48,639 Speaker 14: contribute to the feeling of optimism over here, but a 473 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:50,800 Speaker 14: lot of other people, apart from mister Miller, are saying listen, 474 00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:54,199 Speaker 14: be ambitious. In the second term. You need tax reform, 475 00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 14: significant tax reform. The GST on you know, the tax 476 00:22:57,560 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 14: everyone pays on everything isn't cut. It's not raising enough money. 477 00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:04,240 Speaker 14: You have to broaden that base, maybe reduce personal income 478 00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:07,400 Speaker 14: taxes a bit, but you have to look at structural reform. 479 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:11,439 Speaker 14: Housing is the single biggest issue over here, biting everyone 480 00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:14,000 Speaker 14: on the backside. Young people can't get into the market 481 00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:16,239 Speaker 14: head there and they're screaming. They want some belief. They 482 00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:19,120 Speaker 14: want someone to say this is the way forward. They 483 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:20,720 Speaker 14: certainly didn't think complete Dutton had it. 484 00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:21,240 Speaker 4: That's for sure. 485 00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:24,879 Speaker 2: That's for sure. That's what the older outcome would suggest. 486 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:25,160 Speaker 4: Mars. 487 00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:26,520 Speaker 2: It's good to talk to you. Thank you so much 488 00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:31,080 Speaker 2: as always, Murray Old's Australia correspondent Heather Handwriting legibility is 489 00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:32,680 Speaker 2: going to be a big problem for the exams as well, 490 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:34,959 Speaker 2: which is a fair point actually, isn't it. Because if 491 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:36,639 Speaker 2: you're not very good at the old handwriting, if you 492 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,080 Speaker 2: haven't been practicing at all, which is what these kids 493 00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:40,800 Speaker 2: haven't been doing, can you imagine it's just going to 494 00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:43,160 Speaker 2: be like looking at doctor's notes, but for three hours. 495 00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 2: This and the met Gala is happening today. This is 496 00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:48,879 Speaker 2: a big one for the fashionistas and people who like 497 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:54,080 Speaker 2: looking at pictures of celebrities on their computers. Stunning outfits, obviously, 498 00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:57,280 Speaker 2: none of which will ever be worn again, or which 499 00:23:57,280 --> 00:23:59,679 Speaker 2: you would ever like. If somebody walk down the street 500 00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:02,680 Speaker 2: in one of those outfits, you'd probably call them mental 501 00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:04,080 Speaker 2: health police, do you know what I mean? Because it's 502 00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:06,959 Speaker 2: pretty wacky stuff that they're wearing.

In 507 00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:21,840 Speaker 2: modern celebrities, they like to pay other people to have 508 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:24,240 Speaker 2: their babies.

It was 514 00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:38,399 Speaker 2: sort of like a like a like a crap turquoise, 515 00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:40,959 Speaker 2: but like a like a really like turquoise that had 516 00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:43,200 Speaker 2: been kind of washed through with gray. It wasn't a 517 00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:45,360 Speaker 2: great color for her anyway. She was there because she's 518 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:47,639 Speaker 2: got publicity for the upcoming album. That's what that is. 519 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:49,080 Speaker 2: That's a little bit of getting a bit of attention 520 00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:51,959 Speaker 2: and white lotus. All the stars with their Patrick Swats 521 00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:54,199 Speaker 2: and Nagar and the one with the teeth and the 522 00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:56,400 Speaker 2: one with the teeth's boyfriend with the great greasy hair. 523 00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:57,720 Speaker 2: Now here's the thing, I guess. So I went down 524 00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:00,440 Speaker 2: a rabbit hole today looking at this. Did you know, 525 00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:02,840 Speaker 2: because I didn't know this, did you know that the 526 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:05,480 Speaker 2: one with the teeth apparently has had a falling out 527 00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 2: with the greasy haired boyfriend In real life, they're not 528 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:10,720 Speaker 2: really boyfriend and girlfriend, obviously, they're actors, but they seem 529 00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:12,159 Speaker 2: to have had a falling out because he gave an 530 00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:15,160 Speaker 2: interview yesterday and somebody was asking him about her Amy 531 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:17,480 Speaker 2: lou Wood or whatever her name is, and he shut 532 00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:20,080 Speaker 2: the interview down like he just got really pissy about 533 00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:22,040 Speaker 2: it and then stormed off. And then everybody realized that 534 00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:24,800 Speaker 2: unfollowed each other on the socials, which means they're having 535 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:26,600 Speaker 2: some sort of a row. She tried to kind of 536 00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:28,440 Speaker 2: cover it up today and be decent about it, because 537 00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:30,200 Speaker 2: like her character, I think that she in real life 538 00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:32,800 Speaker 2: is also a decent person. But anyway, there's the drama there. 539 00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:36,280 Speaker 2: And also, did you know I thought that that hair 540 00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:38,480 Speaker 2: was just for the show because Ho would look in 541 00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:41,639 Speaker 2: the mirror and be like, hmm, looking good today. No, 542 00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:45,160 Speaker 2: that's his real life hair. Oh hideous. 543 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:49,119 Speaker 1: Quarter two Politics with Centrics Credit check your customers and 544 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:50,080 Speaker 1: get payments. 545 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:52,879 Speaker 2: Certainty twelve away from five and Jason Wool's our political 546 00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:53,960 Speaker 2: editors with us Now, Hey. 547 00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:55,320 Speaker 3: Jason, afternoon, Heather. 548 00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:57,760 Speaker 2: No decision on the Privileges Committee and the Hukka. 549 00:25:58,080 --> 00:25:59,000 Speaker 3: No, not yet. 550 00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:02,560 Speaker 15: We were told by committee Chair Judith Collins just moments ago, 551 00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:05,640 Speaker 15: or right about half an hour ago, that the committee's 552 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:09,560 Speaker 15: decision has been delayed till eight thirty pm tomorrow. In fact, 553 00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:11,280 Speaker 15: that's when they're going to be meeting. So it's likely 554 00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 15: going to be a lot after eight thirty tomorrow. A 555 00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:16,360 Speaker 15: lot of this is because you know, the House ran 556 00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:18,840 Speaker 15: a little bit long today, so the meeting was pushed back. 557 00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:22,359 Speaker 15: But just moments before the Privileges Committee was supposed to 558 00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:25,480 Speaker 15: meet TI Party Marty, who the Privileges Committee is meeting 559 00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:28,359 Speaker 15: about about the hakka in the House during the first 560 00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:32,280 Speaker 15: reading of the Treatise Principles Bill, TI Party Marty actually 561 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:37,040 Speaker 15: leaked a recommendation from the Privileges Committee about what some 562 00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 15: of the things that they're considering in terms of the punishment. 563 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:41,280 Speaker 2: Is that what the poll is that they're running on 564 00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:42,680 Speaker 2: the Facebook page, So. 565 00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:44,320 Speaker 15: They're doing it a bit tongue in cheek to say, 566 00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:46,439 Speaker 15: I wonder what it's going to be. So basically the 567 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:49,359 Speaker 15: options are so the MP's before the committee are Hannah 568 00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:52,600 Speaker 15: Rapt the Mighty Clock and it says that her punishment 569 00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:56,400 Speaker 15: that the committee is looking into severely censuring her by 570 00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:59,600 Speaker 15: the House or suspending her from the House for seven days. 571 00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:02,679 Speaker 15: When it comes to Debbie Nadi Warepacker, the options are 572 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:05,800 Speaker 15: the same, but the suspension for seven, fourteen or twenty 573 00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:08,960 Speaker 15: one days. And it's the same for Arawi y Tity. 574 00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:11,520 Speaker 15: So you're not allowed to do you know, you're not 575 00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:14,240 Speaker 15: allowed to do this. The Privileges Committee is like Vegas. 576 00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:18,080 Speaker 15: What happens in Privileges Committee stays in Privileges Committee. 577 00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:20,080 Speaker 3: So they're not happy that this has been leaked. 578 00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:23,639 Speaker 15: My colleague Azaria Howe spoke to Judith Collins before she 579 00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:26,399 Speaker 15: went in and specifically asked her about what Tea Party 580 00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:27,119 Speaker 15: Marty had posted. 581 00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:28,679 Speaker 16: This is not something we've seen before. 582 00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:32,480 Speaker 2: I have just seen a copy of that through. 583 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:34,919 Speaker 15: To the Privileges Committee somebody else that was there that 584 00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:36,959 Speaker 15: was not happy, as one Winston Raymond Peters. 585 00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:37,360 Speaker 4: Oh. 586 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:40,760 Speaker 9: Just shows a contempt for parliamentary process, That's what that shows. 587 00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:42,919 Speaker 15: So I think that if they were kind of on 588 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:45,639 Speaker 15: the fence as to the suspension between seven and fourteen 589 00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:48,200 Speaker 15: or twenty one days before, I think this has really 590 00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:50,280 Speaker 15: helped push them over the edge a little bit. 591 00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:52,000 Speaker 3: So hopefully we'll get something tomorrow. 592 00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:54,480 Speaker 15: And you'll remember, Heather, Tomorrow was supposed to be the 593 00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:56,600 Speaker 15: day that Tea Party Marty had its own sort of 594 00:27:56,920 --> 00:28:00,679 Speaker 15: Privileges Committee adjacent hearing, which is it has no legal 595 00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:03,639 Speaker 15: binding and it doesn't supersede what the Privileges Committee is 596 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:05,719 Speaker 15: supposed to do. I've heard nothing about it. I've been 597 00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:07,600 Speaker 15: trying to get in contact with Tea Party Marty all 598 00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:10,479 Speaker 15: day to get some information on that one, but so 599 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:11,680 Speaker 15: far not a sausage. 600 00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:13,119 Speaker 3: So we'll see what happens tomorrow. 601 00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:15,760 Speaker 2: It's also to me, though, why is why would Debby 602 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:18,719 Speaker 2: and the Raweri be suspended for face it? Why are 603 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:20,760 Speaker 2: they facing a harsher punishment than Hannah. 604 00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:22,960 Speaker 15: Oh, I think it would be the preceding And this 605 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:25,320 Speaker 15: is I'm just speculating. And again I mean me even 606 00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:28,359 Speaker 15: commenting on this leak is it could be seen as 607 00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:29,480 Speaker 15: a breach of privilege here. 608 00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:32,080 Speaker 2: So this is just my actual punishment. 609 00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:35,439 Speaker 15: And well clearly not, but essentially because of all the 610 00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:38,200 Speaker 15: subsequent breaches to their Privileges Committee. 611 00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:39,680 Speaker 3: I mean, this isn't the first time that they've done 612 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:40,400 Speaker 3: something that they're. 613 00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:42,800 Speaker 2: Not supposed to. So is it that that Hannah's getting 614 00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:44,680 Speaker 2: in trouble for the hacker? But they're getting in trouble 615 00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:48,240 Speaker 2: for the hacker and just their history. 616 00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:49,520 Speaker 15: That's what That's what I would think. And technically they're 617 00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:51,200 Speaker 15: not in trouble for the Hakker. They're in trouble for 618 00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:54,480 Speaker 15: standing on the House floor and approaching David Seymour. But 619 00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:57,560 Speaker 15: there's a lot that we have to infer because Privileges 620 00:28:57,560 --> 00:28:59,200 Speaker 15: Committee are so secret, secret, in hush. 621 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:01,560 Speaker 2: Hush, Jesus, people are getting themselves tied up in knots 622 00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:03,560 Speaker 2: of this pay equity thing, aren't they. 623 00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:05,640 Speaker 15: Yeah, I mean it's something that you would imagine that 624 00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:09,400 Speaker 15: the government would come under enormous scrutiny for the unions 625 00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:11,640 Speaker 15: were out in force today as with the opposition. Have 626 00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:13,600 Speaker 15: a listened to what Chris Hopkins had to say in 627 00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:14,240 Speaker 15: the House today. 628 00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:17,200 Speaker 12: Why should women across New Zealand be the sacrificial lambs 629 00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:19,720 Speaker 12: in this year's budget being told they have to accept 630 00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:22,840 Speaker 12: lower pay for the same value work compared to their 631 00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:23,800 Speaker 12: male counterparts. 632 00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:27,280 Speaker 15: And Carmel Sapaloni, his deputy, was also quite fired up 633 00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:27,600 Speaker 15: in the House. 634 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:29,360 Speaker 2: I don't think anyone should be mistaken. 635 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:33,400 Speaker 17: This is a war on women, Madam Speaker. 636 00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:36,440 Speaker 15: So essentially this is Brook van Velden announcing a major 637 00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:40,000 Speaker 15: overhaul of the pay equity regime once the legislation has passed, 638 00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:42,800 Speaker 15: and it's happening in the House right now under urgency. 639 00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:45,320 Speaker 15: It will make it tougher for people to take pay 640 00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:48,800 Speaker 15: equity claims that are twenty twenty regime allowed in sectors 641 00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:52,120 Speaker 15: with large female workforces to argue that they were underpaid 642 00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:55,880 Speaker 15: relative to similar work done in sectors dominated by men. 643 00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:58,400 Speaker 15: Now here's luxon explaining why the government's doing this. 644 00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:01,280 Speaker 18: Well, what we're doing here is making sure that we 645 00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:04,840 Speaker 18: actually have a process that's more robust, workable and sustainable. 646 00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:09,160 Speaker 18: We're making sure the the Act and the practice has 647 00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:10,960 Speaker 18: moved away from what it was intended to deal with 648 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:13,920 Speaker 18: sex based discrimination and to a much broader set of 649 00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:16,600 Speaker 18: issues around labor market conditions and other things. 650 00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:18,400 Speaker 3: So essentially it's not fit for purpose. 651 00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:20,560 Speaker 15: And listen, you could tell that the government was really 652 00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:23,520 Speaker 15: worried about this one today because Luxon actually fronted up 653 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:26,760 Speaker 15: to what we call the bridge run on Tuesday, which 654 00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 15: is we grab the ministers before they go into the house. 655 00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:31,720 Speaker 15: He doesn't usually come to that one, but he came 656 00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:34,080 Speaker 15: today just to answer some questions.

Lord's Outfit seven away from five. 670 00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:16,440 Speaker 1: Putting the tough question to the newspeakers the mic asking breakfast. 671 00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:18,040 Speaker 7: Sir John Key, as well as do we know where 672 00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:18,840 Speaker 7: the puck is going? 673 00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:20,720 Speaker 1: When we've got a bloke in America who's changing the 674 00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:22,160 Speaker 1: rules literally on a daily basis. 675 00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:25,520 Speaker 19: To describe as unpredictable would be an understatement. But he's 676 00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:27,840 Speaker 19: put on these massive tarifs and what did they get? 677 00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:31,480 Speaker 19: An enormous vomits from the stock market. But here's the 678 00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:34,520 Speaker 19: best predictor, I think the market, and that is the 679 00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:38,720 Speaker 19: markets themselves. They are not buying that he's leaving massive 680 00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 19: tariffs on. When you put them on, they get a 681 00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:44,400 Speaker 19: chillbrall reaction. That's not been the situation for the last 682 00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:46,520 Speaker 19: twelve days. So at least people are pretty smart and 683 00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:49,680 Speaker 19: they've worked out that he's going to negotiate some solution. 684 00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:52,440 Speaker 1: Back tomorrow at six am, The Mic Hosking Breakfast with 685 00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:54,760 Speaker 1: the rain Drove of Alarm Newstalk. 686 00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:57,640 Speaker 2: ZB four away from five. Here, how strange it is 687 00:31:57,640 --> 00:31:59,640 Speaker 2: that the Labor Party doesn't know what a woman is 688 00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:01,760 Speaker 2: when it comes to pay, or does know what a 689 00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:03,160 Speaker 2: woman is when it comes to pay, but when it 690 00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:05,240 Speaker 2: comes to sport they have no idea the chip you 691 00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:07,280 Speaker 2: can't even define what a woman is. So his grand 692 00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:09,840 Speaker 2: standing today was rather ironic. It is this is a 693 00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:12,080 Speaker 2: fair point. This is a fair point in one that 694 00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:15,560 Speaker 2: is noted. Oh, we're very happy about We're very happy 695 00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:17,840 Speaker 2: to not define women until it suits us to define 696 00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:19,680 Speaker 2: women and try to get them pay claims because we're 697 00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:24,360 Speaker 2: tied up to the unions. Okay, this is not going 698 00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:27,320 Speaker 2: to be a popular opinion, but I am finding the 699 00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:30,040 Speaker 2: Malori Party quite amusing at the moment. That is quite 700 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:33,800 Speaker 2: funny what they're doing. I mean, base, it is funny. 701 00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:36,560 Speaker 2: Don't you think it is funny that they It is 702 00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:39,800 Speaker 2: quite funny. They have got themselves the list of what 703 00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:41,560 Speaker 2: punishments they're going to get, and they've put it up 704 00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:44,480 Speaker 2: on Facebook page and they're taking a they're basically getting 705 00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:47,320 Speaker 2: you to guess which punishment's coming their way via a poll. 706 00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:51,560 Speaker 2: That is quite funny. Basically, what they're doing is making 707 00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:53,720 Speaker 2: a mockery of Parliament's rules. Right, there's no point in 708 00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:56,880 Speaker 2: having rules unless you're going to enforce those rules, and 709 00:32:56,920 --> 00:33:00,440 Speaker 2: Parliament really cannot enforce any of its dumb rules. Expects 710 00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:02,840 Speaker 2: people to be decent, to behave like good people, and 711 00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:05,000 Speaker 2: you know it's obviously they're not good people at the 712 00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:08,800 Speaker 2: Marty Party, they're just clowns. But sometimes watching clowns act 713 00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:11,520 Speaker 2: up is quite funny, isn't it, Like I say, not 714 00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:13,240 Speaker 2: popular Brook van Valden. 715 00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:15,480 Speaker 6: Next to your home wor. 716 00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:25,959 Speaker 1: Digging through the spin spins to find the real story? Gooring, 717 00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:30,480 Speaker 1: it's hither dupasy on drive with one New Zealand let's 718 00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:32,200 Speaker 1: get connected news talks. 719 00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:34,000 Speaker 9: That'd be afternoon. 720 00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:37,320 Speaker 2: The government is halting all pay equity claims. It's overhauling 721 00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:39,960 Speaker 2: the system and so all thirty three current claims will 722 00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:42,280 Speaker 2: be stopped and we'll have to reapply under these new rules. 723 00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:46,040 Speaker 2: Now this has sparked significant criticism from unions and opposition parties. 724 00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 2: Today Brook van Velden is the Workplace Relations Minister and 725 00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:52,600 Speaker 2: with us Now, Hey Brook, hello Heather, what's brought this on? 726 00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:57,360 Speaker 8: Well, when I first entered into government, I made it 727 00:33:57,400 --> 00:34:00,520 Speaker 8: really clear to the Prime Minister and to my colleagues 728 00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:03,880 Speaker 8: that I wanted to potentially see some changes to the 729 00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:07,800 Speaker 8: Equal Pay Act to make the equity system more robust 730 00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:11,640 Speaker 8: and more workable and sustainable. Became clear to me at 731 00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:14,440 Speaker 8: the end of last year that there was appetite within 732 00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:18,000 Speaker 8: my cabinet to do this, and you know, I think 733 00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:21,520 Speaker 8: it's pretty clear that there was impetus, and so that's 734 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:22,840 Speaker 8: what's making the change. 735 00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:25,600 Speaker 2: How many of the thirty three that are currently underway 736 00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:28,400 Speaker 2: will qualify do you think to reapply under the new rules. 737 00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:33,279 Speaker 8: It's really hard to say. Everyone would have to bring 738 00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:36,239 Speaker 8: a claim based on the merits of their arguments under 739 00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:39,279 Speaker 8: the new thresholds, and so I can't speak for if 740 00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:42,640 Speaker 8: all of them would be successful or whether or not 741 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:45,440 Speaker 8: they would have merit. But that's what is designed by 742 00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:47,879 Speaker 8: this new system, is that they would have to prove 743 00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:51,399 Speaker 8: that there's seventy percent of the workforce female, that's been 744 00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:56,120 Speaker 8: female dominated for ten years and been historically dominated, and 745 00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:59,520 Speaker 8: that they can find comparators either within that same workforce 746 00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:04,560 Speaker 8: or than the same sector that has a male dominated profession. 747 00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:07,600 Speaker 8: So they have been discriminated against, so will you comparison 748 00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:07,920 Speaker 8: to them? 749 00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:10,000 Speaker 2: So it has to be within the same sector. This 750 00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:14,160 Speaker 2: will stop the librarians, for example, comparing themselves to transport engineers. 751 00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:17,879 Speaker 8: That's exactly right. You know, we've seen some claims where 752 00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:21,880 Speaker 8: you've got adminent clerical staff comparing themselves to mechanical engineers, 753 00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:26,480 Speaker 8: and social workers comparing themselves to air traffic controllers. And 754 00:35:26,520 --> 00:35:29,279 Speaker 8: I'm bringing a little bit more reality back to what 755 00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:32,160 Speaker 8: we're seeing under pay equity that we want to look 756 00:35:32,200 --> 00:35:35,880 Speaker 8: at genuine gender based discrimination, and that means starting at home, 757 00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:38,799 Speaker 8: looking at with you within your own workforce, and if 758 00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:41,279 Speaker 8: you can't find that within your own company, looking at 759 00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:45,000 Speaker 8: similar companies, and then looking within the industry. But we 760 00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:47,600 Speaker 8: shouldn't be fishing for gender based discrimination. 761 00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:49,920 Speaker 2: How much are you saving as a result of this? 762 00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:54,839 Speaker 8: Oh? Look, I can't get into specific numbers, but. 763 00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:58,480 Speaker 2: I've heard that you are saving more than ten billion 764 00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:00,360 Speaker 2: dollars over four years. Is that wrong? 765 00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:05,560 Speaker 8: What I can say is that there will be billions 766 00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:07,239 Speaker 8: of dollars of savings, because if. 767 00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:09,759 Speaker 2: You're not denying it, if you're not denying that it's 768 00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:11,800 Speaker 2: ten billion dollars over four years, I'm going to assume 769 00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:13,959 Speaker 2: it's ten more than ten billion dollars over four years. 770 00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:14,279 Speaker 14: You know that? 771 00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:19,239 Speaker 8: Ah, I do know you hear there, But look, I 772 00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:22,240 Speaker 8: don't have the ability to say what the specific budget 773 00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:25,719 Speaker 8: figures are. What is it that there is significant? 774 00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:29,840 Speaker 2: Is it the biggest the single biggest saving in budget 775 00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:30,839 Speaker 2: twenty twenty five. 776 00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:35,520 Speaker 8: Look, I can't confirm that either, but I can tell 777 00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:38,040 Speaker 8: you that there will be savings in the magnitude of 778 00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:40,880 Speaker 8: billions and that there will be a significant reduction in 779 00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:43,120 Speaker 8: the cost of the crown. But I also do want 780 00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:45,400 Speaker 8: to make it clear that it's not my overriding reason 781 00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:48,440 Speaker 8: for doing this. I genuinely believe that there have been 782 00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:52,840 Speaker 8: errors in our pay equity system that need resolving, tightening 783 00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:57,200 Speaker 8: those comparators, making sure that we're focusing on genuine gender 784 00:36:57,200 --> 00:37:00,960 Speaker 8: based discrimination, not things like changes to inflation and changes 785 00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:05,000 Speaker 8: to labor market forces between industries. This is about discrimination 786 00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:07,800 Speaker 8: between men and women, and I do support us resolve 787 00:37:07,840 --> 00:37:08,640 Speaker 8: in that issue. 788 00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:11,239 Speaker 2: If this isn't being done for the budget, why are 789 00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:13,440 Speaker 2: you doing it under urgency today? Like if you actually 790 00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:15,719 Speaker 2: genuinely had believed it, and I don't doubt that you did, 791 00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:18,560 Speaker 2: But why haven't you done it previous previously or you know, 792 00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:19,360 Speaker 2: after the budget. 793 00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:23,480 Speaker 8: Oh, there's a couple of reasons. It was clear that 794 00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:26,120 Speaker 8: you know, I had support at this particular juncture in 795 00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:29,759 Speaker 8: time from across cabinet to get my work done. That's 796 00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:34,200 Speaker 8: also true. But there's also the case that I didn't 797 00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:36,640 Speaker 8: want to have two different systems running exactly at the 798 00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:40,720 Speaker 8: same time, which is why we're stopping the current claims 799 00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:43,960 Speaker 8: and saying you can start again under the new thresholds. 800 00:37:44,120 --> 00:37:46,759 Speaker 8: I did believe it would be messy to have some 801 00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:50,680 Speaker 8: continue under old thresholds and new ones continuing under the 802 00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:53,280 Speaker 8: new thresholds. So that's why we're doing it as quickly 803 00:37:53,280 --> 00:37:53,759 Speaker 8: as we can. 804 00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:56,000 Speaker 2: All right, Brook, thanks very much, really appreciated, Brook van 805 00:37:56,080 --> 00:37:59,840 Speaker 2: Valden workplace Relations minister. So heard it was more than 806 00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:01,880 Speaker 2: ten billion dollars over four years. Heard it was the 807 00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:04,799 Speaker 2: single biggest saving in the budget. She didn't disabuse us 808 00:38:04,840 --> 00:38:06,759 Speaker 2: of that. So I guess we're just going to believe 809 00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:08,560 Speaker 2: that until somebody does twelve past five. 810 00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:10,480 Speaker 1: Hell du see Allen. 811 00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:13,239 Speaker 2: If somebody needs to, because it might well be true. Now, 812 00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:16,040 Speaker 2: the Israeli government has announced quite a significant escalation and 813 00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:18,200 Speaker 2: its plans for Gaza. It has announced it plans to 814 00:38:18,239 --> 00:38:21,800 Speaker 2: reoccupy the Gaza Strip, relocate the population there to the south, 815 00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:24,920 Speaker 2: and then destroy all of Hamas's infrastructure, both above and 816 00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:28,040 Speaker 2: below ground. Now doctor Leon Goldsmith is a Middle East 817 00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:30,879 Speaker 2: expert at Otago University and with US now Haley. 818 00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:33,080 Speaker 20: On Good Morning, Kevin. 819 00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:35,200 Speaker 2: What kind of a place is Gars are going to 820 00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:35,960 Speaker 2: be after they do this. 821 00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:44,200 Speaker 20: It's already pretty apocalyptic catastrophe, so yes, it's only going 822 00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:45,960 Speaker 20: to get worse. I was talked to my Palestinian friend 823 00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:48,120 Speaker 20: in Doha the other day and there's just nothing left 824 00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:52,120 Speaker 20: of Gaza City where he's from. So in terms of 825 00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:56,239 Speaker 20: the destruction, this is not a good sign. But I 826 00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:58,840 Speaker 20: think that what's happening here is there's really three things 827 00:38:58,880 --> 00:39:01,279 Speaker 20: that the Israeli's haven in their mind here. As one 828 00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:05,280 Speaker 20: as to mop up the remainder of the resistance access 829 00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:09,200 Speaker 20: in terms of a security outlock, I think that there 830 00:39:09,239 --> 00:39:12,399 Speaker 20: was a missile that got through and nearly hit Benarian 831 00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:16,120 Speaker 20: Airport two days ago, so they still see a major 832 00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:19,400 Speaker 20: threat to their security. So this is one of the 833 00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:21,200 Speaker 20: first things that they're trying to do. And the other 834 00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:23,640 Speaker 20: thing is obviously the hostages that they see that this 835 00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:27,640 Speaker 20: is some kind of a plan to try and separate 836 00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:31,719 Speaker 20: her mass from the popitage population and hopefully try and 837 00:39:32,080 --> 00:39:36,080 Speaker 20: squeeze them to release the loughs. But you know, seventy 838 00:39:36,080 --> 00:39:39,320 Speaker 20: percent of his Israelis. This is the major consideration the hostages. 839 00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:41,759 Speaker 4: So this is this. 840 00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:48,680 Speaker 20: Betrayal hostages because they don't think that this is going 841 00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:50,760 Speaker 20: to lead to their safe release. 842 00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:54,840 Speaker 2: So yeah, Leon, do you think that, I mean, is 843 00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:57,480 Speaker 2: anybody going to move back once they actually destroy the infrastructure, 844 00:39:57,480 --> 00:39:59,600 Speaker 2: which presumably is going to destroy everything around it, Is 845 00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:00,879 Speaker 2: anybody gonna want to move back? 846 00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:07,640 Speaker 20: Well? I don't know. It's really it's incredible the resilient 847 00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:11,719 Speaker 20: people there after, you know, the opportunity to go back 848 00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:17,480 Speaker 20: north occurred, did actually go back and troll their properties 849 00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:22,359 Speaker 20: and their livelihoods. But you know that, I don't think 850 00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:24,800 Speaker 20: the Israelis if they put this plan in place, and 851 00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:27,680 Speaker 20: there's no guarantee that they will because they're waiting to 852 00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:30,480 Speaker 20: get the green light from Trump when he arrives here 853 00:40:30,480 --> 00:40:33,399 Speaker 20: in the region in a few days. But I think 854 00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:36,000 Speaker 20: that if they put this plan in place, they will 855 00:40:36,040 --> 00:40:41,080 Speaker 20: not allow Palestinian's freedom of movement back towards the North. 856 00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:47,000 Speaker 20: I think basically they've corral them what to do from there. 857 00:40:47,239 --> 00:40:48,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, lee on, we'll have to leave at their 858 00:40:48,719 --> 00:40:51,240 Speaker 2: phone lines, Dodgy. I really appreciate it. Doctor Leon Goldsmith, 859 00:40:51,560 --> 00:40:54,480 Speaker 2: University of Otago Department of Politics. By the way, speaking 860 00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:58,840 Speaker 2: to us from Anchor, hence the dodgy Lineen Thomas Mashie 861 00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:00,200 Speaker 2: will have heard this in the news. The com miss 862 00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:02,600 Speaker 2: Commission has just filed criminal charges just broken in the 863 00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:04,839 Speaker 2: last few minutes, maybe like twenty minutes or so, filed 864 00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:09,600 Speaker 2: criminal charges against Woolworth's New Zealand for alleged inaccurate prices 865 00:41:09,640 --> 00:41:12,960 Speaker 2: and misleading specials. Now, apparently this has got to do 866 00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:15,839 Speaker 2: with the in store ticketing. So that's you know, I'm 867 00:41:15,880 --> 00:41:17,440 Speaker 2: assuming that those that you know, when you go up 868 00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:20,239 Speaker 2: to the shelf and you've got the underneath calogs it 869 00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:23,960 Speaker 2: says calogs twelve dollars or whatever. It's that little electronic 870 00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:26,360 Speaker 2: ticketing thing that changes. There seem to be problems with that. 871 00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:29,680 Speaker 2: This is not the first time that the Commerce Commission 872 00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:31,279 Speaker 2: has done this. They laid charges just a couple of 873 00:41:31,320 --> 00:41:34,200 Speaker 2: months ago against pack and Save Silverdale and Pack and 874 00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:36,200 Speaker 2: Saved Mill Streets, so two of the Pack and Saved stores. 875 00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:39,800 Speaker 2: Maximum penalty here is a fine of six hundred thousand dollars. 876 00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:42,160 Speaker 2: So it's a fair amount of money, but probably, you know, 877 00:41:42,280 --> 00:41:44,719 Speaker 2: not not a huge amount if you're running a super 878 00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:48,200 Speaker 2: profitable supermarket chain.

Librarians feel that they should be 899 00:42:46,480 --> 00:42:48,680 Speaker 2: paid like someone in another industry than they should go 900 00:42:48,680 --> 00:42:50,920 Speaker 2: and do their job in the other industry.

Thank you, Dave, 903 00:42:57,360 --> 00:43:00,880 Speaker 2: nineteen past five. Now it turns out that both Nikolaules 904 00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:02,920 Speaker 2: and christ Bishop have also been doing the same thing 905 00:43:02,920 --> 00:43:06,319 Speaker 2: as Erica Stanford and using their personal email accounts for 906 00:43:06,320 --> 00:43:08,759 Speaker 2: the government communications they're not supposed to. Obviously, it's a 907 00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:12,000 Speaker 2: breach of the Cabinet manual. Nadia Yousef is a data 908 00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:17,239 Speaker 2: security expert with the SISO Lens and with US. Now, Hey, Nadia, Hi, 909 00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:19,600 Speaker 2: how are you. I'm very well, thank you. How unsafe 910 00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:21,239 Speaker 2: is this? How much is the stressing you out? 911 00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:22,919 Speaker 14: Well? 912 00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:25,120 Speaker 21: This is I think this is really interesting and we 913 00:43:25,160 --> 00:43:27,800 Speaker 21: saw a lot of talk about this obviously in Hillary 914 00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:29,719 Speaker 21: Clinton's campaign as well. You know, there's a lot of 915 00:43:29,719 --> 00:43:32,319 Speaker 21: talk about Gmail, and I think what's really important to 916 00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:35,560 Speaker 21: address is that web mail providers like Gmail and Outlook 917 00:43:35,600 --> 00:43:38,719 Speaker 21: aren't actually insecure services if you use them with a 918 00:43:38,760 --> 00:43:42,759 Speaker 21: strong and unique password and multi factor authentication. It's just 919 00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:47,360 Speaker 21: not the best mechanism for you know, government information to 920 00:43:47,400 --> 00:43:48,520 Speaker 21: be cheared through. 921 00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:51,240 Speaker 2: I thought that they didn't have end to end encryption 922 00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:53,040 Speaker 2: and that that was material to this whole thing. 923 00:43:54,480 --> 00:43:56,880 Speaker 21: What happens in the back end is you know a 924 00:43:56,920 --> 00:43:59,640 Speaker 21: little bit a little bit different for everything. But the 925 00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:04,279 Speaker 21: really important the reason that these organizations have IT teams 926 00:44:04,360 --> 00:44:06,879 Speaker 21: that provide you know, their own internal networks and things 927 00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:08,960 Speaker 21: like that, is so that they can keep control of 928 00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:12,719 Speaker 21: these documents and they can understand who's accessing them. They 929 00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:15,759 Speaker 21: can make sure that all users have good, strong passwords 930 00:44:15,840 --> 00:44:18,600 Speaker 21: and multi factor set up as well. So you know, 931 00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:22,000 Speaker 21: organizations like this have control over these kinds of documents 932 00:44:22,080 --> 00:44:24,560 Speaker 21: and an audit trail when they're kept on their own system, 933 00:44:25,320 --> 00:44:27,680 Speaker 21: which is why they don't all use their personal email. 934 00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:30,800 Speaker 2: I see now, Nadia. So for me, as just a 935 00:44:30,840 --> 00:44:33,240 Speaker 2: punter out there, I thought that WhatsApp was the most 936 00:44:33,280 --> 00:44:34,920 Speaker 2: secure and if you were going to send you know, 937 00:44:35,320 --> 00:44:37,880 Speaker 2: dodgy texts at dodgy messages, you wanted to use the 938 00:44:37,880 --> 00:44:41,000 Speaker 2: WhatsApp and not the Gmail. Have I been completely misled 939 00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:41,600 Speaker 2: this whole time? 940 00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:46,400 Speaker 21: I would say that they're all third party provided services, 941 00:44:47,239 --> 00:44:49,840 Speaker 21: and we've seen over the last few years that you know, 942 00:44:49,960 --> 00:44:52,239 Speaker 21: lots of different services have been compromised at lots of 943 00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:54,920 Speaker 21: different times. So I would say nothing is infallible and 944 00:44:54,960 --> 00:44:56,880 Speaker 21: once it's being sent over the internet, it should be 945 00:44:56,920 --> 00:45:00,960 Speaker 21: considered that way. And saying that long str and unique passwords, 946 00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:02,320 Speaker 21: and it's something we talk about all the time and 947 00:45:02,360 --> 00:45:05,239 Speaker 21: everyone's absolutely sick of hearing it. But they are the 948 00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:07,799 Speaker 21: silver bullet with multi factor, that's the thing that will 949 00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:09,760 Speaker 21: keep you most secure of anything. 950 00:45:10,080 --> 00:45:12,840 Speaker 2: Nadia, thank you very much. Nadia Usef Siso, Len's country 951 00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:16,279 Speaker 2: manager and data security expert. Hang on to Heather, wasn't 952 00:45:16,320 --> 00:45:18,319 Speaker 2: Nikola Willis on the record last night on your show 953 00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:20,600 Speaker 2: saying she doesn't really send emails. Yes, she was, Chris, 954 00:45:20,600 --> 00:45:22,759 Speaker 2: but we've already talked about that. She has gone back 955 00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:26,360 Speaker 2: and realized she did send one email, just the one 956 00:45:27,320 --> 00:45:29,600 Speaker 2: from the work account to the private account in order 957 00:45:29,640 --> 00:45:33,239 Speaker 2: to print it in the hotel room. That's that's what 958 00:45:33,320 --> 00:45:33,919 Speaker 2: happens there. 959 00:45:34,080 --> 00:45:39,879 Speaker 1: Five twenty two Informed Inside into Today's issues. It's Heather 960 00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:44,880 Speaker 1: Duplicy Ellen Drive with one New Zealand let's get connected news. 961 00:45:44,680 --> 00:45:48,879 Speaker 2: Talks that'd be wow, national and Coheather are truly out 962 00:45:48,880 --> 00:45:51,520 Speaker 2: of touch on the parity issue. How petty? Thank you? Well, 963 00:45:52,760 --> 00:45:56,040 Speaker 2: I don't know. I'm loving it. I can see all 964 00:45:56,120 --> 00:45:58,480 Speaker 2: the logic here. Still, you can still do the pay 965 00:45:58,560 --> 00:46:01,120 Speaker 2: equity if you want to. You just can't compare yourself 966 00:46:01,120 --> 00:46:04,440 Speaker 2: if you're a librarian with a traffic engineer, which seems 967 00:46:04,440 --> 00:46:07,240 Speaker 2: to me like that's log Those are not even similar 968 00:46:07,320 --> 00:46:09,239 Speaker 2: jobs at all. It's a logical thing for Brooke to 969 00:46:09,280 --> 00:46:11,400 Speaker 2: do this. I would have thought five to twenty five. Listen, 970 00:46:11,600 --> 00:46:14,239 Speaker 2: I'm sorry to do this though, I've got a call 971 00:46:14,320 --> 00:46:16,719 Speaker 2: BS on National. I have got a call BS on 972 00:46:16,840 --> 00:46:19,200 Speaker 2: National pretending that it wants to do something about banning 973 00:46:19,239 --> 00:46:21,279 Speaker 2: the kids from the social media. I'm sorry to do 974 00:46:21,320 --> 00:46:23,239 Speaker 2: this because I read that, I saw that they were 975 00:46:23,239 --> 00:46:26,960 Speaker 2: submitting legislation this morning. I got really excited because I 976 00:46:27,000 --> 00:46:29,040 Speaker 2: don't like the social media and I don't like under 977 00:46:29,080 --> 00:46:31,400 Speaker 2: sixteens being on it, and I think it scrambles their brains. 978 00:46:31,400 --> 00:46:33,960 Speaker 2: And I thought, finally the National Party is going to 979 00:46:33,960 --> 00:46:36,200 Speaker 2: do so No, no, not, Actually they're not doing anything 980 00:46:36,239 --> 00:46:39,280 Speaker 2: at all. What they're doing is they're submitting an apparently 981 00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:42,120 Speaker 2: poorly drafted members bill. Now the significance of this is 982 00:46:42,160 --> 00:46:45,040 Speaker 2: that a member's bill goes into the parliamentary biscuit tin 983 00:46:45,400 --> 00:46:48,800 Speaker 2: and it sits there doing nothing until it's pulled out randomly, 984 00:46:48,960 --> 00:46:51,360 Speaker 2: and a ballot like that can take years for that 985 00:46:51,440 --> 00:46:53,640 Speaker 2: to happen. Now, it doesn't have to be like this 986 00:46:53,760 --> 00:46:56,080 Speaker 2: because the National Party is the lead party in government, 987 00:46:56,120 --> 00:46:57,960 Speaker 2: so it can do a government bill like it's doing 988 00:46:58,040 --> 00:47:00,600 Speaker 2: right now with a pay equity a government bill, right, 989 00:47:00,640 --> 00:47:01,960 Speaker 2: you can do it. You can get it past on 990 00:47:02,040 --> 00:47:04,080 Speaker 2: the day if you want to. The problem with that, 991 00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:06,319 Speaker 2: obviously is ACT is not going to support it. But 992 00:47:06,400 --> 00:47:08,440 Speaker 2: ACT is not going to support it because it's badly written, 993 00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:10,840 Speaker 2: and possibly it's badly written because no one's put in 994 00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:12,920 Speaker 2: much of an effort because it's not actually supposed to 995 00:47:12,960 --> 00:47:15,799 Speaker 2: become law, is it. It's just supposed to look like 996 00:47:15,840 --> 00:47:17,880 Speaker 2: they're making an effort. So if you're just pretending that 997 00:47:18,000 --> 00:47:20,560 Speaker 2: you don't have to put in that much work. ACT 998 00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:23,040 Speaker 2: doesn't have to be the death of this idea, though, 999 00:47:23,280 --> 00:47:26,160 Speaker 2: because if National really wanted to do this, they could 1000 00:47:26,160 --> 00:47:28,800 Speaker 2: simply look for cross party support. And that's not unusual 1001 00:47:28,880 --> 00:47:31,040 Speaker 2: and it is not rare in Parliament, happens all the time. 1002 00:47:31,200 --> 00:47:33,680 Speaker 2: In fact, they don't need anyone other than Labor to 1003 00:47:33,760 --> 00:47:35,920 Speaker 2: support this and it would become law, and Labor is 1004 00:47:35,960 --> 00:47:38,279 Speaker 2: open to the idea. Chris Hipkins said that today, said yeah, 1005 00:47:38,280 --> 00:47:41,480 Speaker 2: I'm open to it because Labor also, like National, is 1006 00:47:41,520 --> 00:47:44,320 Speaker 2: wanting the votes of parents like myself who want to 1007 00:47:44,360 --> 00:47:46,399 Speaker 2: see the kids come off the social media. So good 1008 00:47:46,400 --> 00:47:48,680 Speaker 2: on National for saying that they want to do something 1009 00:47:48,719 --> 00:47:50,520 Speaker 2: about this, But they're going to get no credit from 1010 00:47:50,520 --> 00:47:53,120 Speaker 2: me on this until they actually do something about this. 1011 00:47:53,239 --> 00:47:56,440 Speaker 2: And popping something into the biscuitin to be forgotten about 1012 00:47:56,440 --> 00:48:01,120 Speaker 2: for years is not I'm sorry doing anything about this ever. 1013 00:48:01,360 --> 00:48:05,800 Speaker 2: Do the sallenge such bad news. The cops have dropped 1014 00:48:05,840 --> 00:48:09,280 Speaker 2: the charges against those three climate protesters from Restore Passenger 1015 00:48:09,360 --> 00:48:12,879 Speaker 2: Rail who were facing the retrial in Wellington. Now you'll 1016 00:48:12,920 --> 00:48:15,759 Speaker 2: remember this. They did the protest where they glued their 1017 00:48:15,760 --> 00:48:18,160 Speaker 2: hands to the ground and climbed the gantries and just 1018 00:48:18,440 --> 00:48:21,600 Speaker 2: did all kinds of like clownish behavior, right, and they'd 1019 00:48:22,080 --> 00:48:26,080 Speaker 2: they'd been charged with endangering transport in the first trial. 1020 00:48:26,160 --> 00:48:28,920 Speaker 2: The jury found one defendant not guilty, and then they 1021 00:48:28,920 --> 00:48:30,960 Speaker 2: couldn't reach a verdict for three other ones, and then 1022 00:48:30,960 --> 00:48:32,880 Speaker 2: they were going to do the old retrial but today 1023 00:48:32,960 --> 00:48:35,360 Speaker 2: the police said the charges have been dropped, and the 1024 00:48:35,400 --> 00:48:38,239 Speaker 2: police put out a statement saying police are disappointed. Not 1025 00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:42,120 Speaker 2: as disappointed as me. Let me tell you this. I 1026 00:48:42,239 --> 00:48:44,400 Speaker 2: wanted to see them charged and chucked in the slammer 1027 00:48:44,440 --> 00:48:46,960 Speaker 2: for a really long time. Anyway, Police are disappointed, they say, 1028 00:48:47,600 --> 00:48:49,920 Speaker 2: they said the challenge for the police in this particular 1029 00:48:49,960 --> 00:48:52,720 Speaker 2: case was that there was insufficient evidence of the danger 1030 00:48:53,080 --> 00:48:56,400 Speaker 2: that resulted from the protesters behavior. To be clear, that 1031 00:48:56,440 --> 00:48:58,719 Speaker 2: does not mean that the danger didn't exist, just that 1032 00:48:58,760 --> 00:49:02,040 Speaker 2: we were unable to demonstrate it to the level required 1033 00:49:02,120 --> 00:49:06,080 Speaker 2: under the legislation. Well, next time, because there will be 1034 00:49:06,080 --> 00:49:07,840 Speaker 2: a next time. There will be a next time with 1035 00:49:07,880 --> 00:49:09,520 Speaker 2: his hand gluers and let's hope we can get them 1036 00:49:09,560 --> 00:49:12,080 Speaker 2: in the slammer. Then headlines next, and then we're going 1037 00:49:12,080 --> 00:49:13,920 Speaker 2: to talk to an AI expert about how to get 1038 00:49:13,960 --> 00:49:15,160 Speaker 2: around it without handwriting. 1039 00:49:19,640 --> 00:49:22,040 Speaker 1: On the iHeart app and in your car on your 1040 00:49:22,120 --> 00:49:25,960 Speaker 1: drive home, it's hither duplicy Ellen drive with one New 1041 00:49:26,080 --> 00:49:29,120 Speaker 1: Zealand let's get connected news talk sa'd be. 1042 00:49:33,960 --> 00:49:37,120 Speaker 2: Do the nurses compare themselves to That's a very good question, actually, 1043 00:49:37,120 --> 00:49:38,520 Speaker 2: And we're going to talk to the nurses and this 1044 00:49:38,560 --> 00:49:40,440 Speaker 2: isn't the pay equity stuff. We're talking to the nurses 1045 00:49:40,480 --> 00:49:42,839 Speaker 2: after six o'clock, So that is the question I'm going 1046 00:49:42,840 --> 00:49:44,680 Speaker 2: to be asking the huddle standing by at the moment. 1047 00:49:44,719 --> 00:49:47,000 Speaker 2: By the way, if you were listening to Nicola on 1048 00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:49,479 Speaker 2: the show last night, she was talking about the fact 1049 00:49:49,480 --> 00:49:51,239 Speaker 2: that she told us she was going to talk to 1050 00:49:51,320 --> 00:49:52,880 Speaker 2: Thomas Coglan at the Herald and she was going to 1051 00:49:52,920 --> 00:49:55,839 Speaker 2: give them a little teaser of how much money she'd 1052 00:49:55,920 --> 00:49:58,920 Speaker 2: saved a big billion dollar item in the budget. It 1053 00:49:59,000 --> 00:50:01,319 Speaker 2: turns out reading the paper today that it is a 1054 00:50:01,320 --> 00:50:04,120 Speaker 2: billion dollars over four years by basically getting people out 1055 00:50:04,160 --> 00:50:07,719 Speaker 2: of motels and emergency accommodation. You'll remember this this they 1056 00:50:07,719 --> 00:50:09,720 Speaker 2: had set a target, a government had set a target 1057 00:50:09,960 --> 00:50:12,360 Speaker 2: of getting that number down to only twenty five percent 1058 00:50:12,400 --> 00:50:14,879 Speaker 2: of what it was because it completely got nuts under 1059 00:50:14,880 --> 00:50:17,040 Speaker 2: the labor government got it down to about twenty five 1060 00:50:17,080 --> 00:50:19,080 Speaker 2: percent of what it was. Meant to do it by 1061 00:50:19,080 --> 00:50:21,160 Speaker 2: twenty thirty, but actually did it last year. So six 1062 00:50:21,280 --> 00:50:23,080 Speaker 2: years early and there's a billion dollar saving. And I 1063 00:50:23,080 --> 00:50:25,640 Speaker 2: think we can all agree paying for people to stay 1064 00:50:25,680 --> 00:50:27,960 Speaker 2: in motels was never a good idea at all. Twenty 1065 00:50:27,960 --> 00:50:31,719 Speaker 2: four away from six now Victoria University students. Well, they're 1066 00:50:31,719 --> 00:50:34,280 Speaker 2: apparently shocked because they're going to be forced to rewrite 1067 00:50:34,320 --> 00:50:36,879 Speaker 2: their exams next month by hand. It's not everyone, it's 1068 00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:39,120 Speaker 2: just the students of two papers and third year law 1069 00:50:39,400 --> 00:50:41,240 Speaker 2: and it's basically to try and get around AI. 1070 00:50:41,600 --> 00:50:41,719 Speaker 8: Now. 1071 00:50:41,800 --> 00:50:44,760 Speaker 2: Danny Beddingfield is an expert in AI usage in education. 1072 00:50:44,840 --> 00:50:47,880 Speaker 2: Hey Danny, Hi, Ever, Danny, it seems to me that 1073 00:50:48,320 --> 00:50:50,239 Speaker 2: it's probably one of the only ways to get around 1074 00:50:50,280 --> 00:50:53,880 Speaker 2: the AI right to do handwriting or to do oral exams. 1075 00:50:54,000 --> 00:50:54,800 Speaker 2: Is it about right. 1076 00:50:56,040 --> 00:50:56,600 Speaker 4: At the moment? 1077 00:50:56,680 --> 00:50:59,000 Speaker 22: Unfortunately? Yes, you know, you would like to think that 1078 00:50:59,040 --> 00:51:01,879 Speaker 22: you've got tools that will predict or be able to 1079 00:51:01,920 --> 00:51:04,719 Speaker 22: detect this, but unfortunately there's nothing reliable out. 1080 00:51:04,640 --> 00:51:05,200 Speaker 4: There at the moment. 1081 00:51:05,480 --> 00:51:05,840 Speaker 3: Why not? 1082 00:51:07,960 --> 00:51:11,200 Speaker 22: I guess the meaning is, you know, artificial intelligence is 1083 00:51:11,200 --> 00:51:13,839 Speaker 22: designed to mimic human behavior, and every time you put 1084 00:51:13,840 --> 00:51:17,080 Speaker 22: a prompt into an AI tool, it literally will produce 1085 00:51:17,080 --> 00:51:19,720 Speaker 22: something different, even if the prompt is exactly the same, 1086 00:51:20,040 --> 00:51:22,640 Speaker 22: because it's rewritten by the AI tool every single time, 1087 00:51:22,760 --> 00:51:25,240 Speaker 22: and we'll use different sources and different ways of writing 1088 00:51:25,239 --> 00:51:26,200 Speaker 22: every time it writes it. 1089 00:51:26,800 --> 00:51:30,680 Speaker 2: So if there's an I mean, do you think into 1090 00:51:30,719 --> 00:51:32,680 Speaker 2: the future going to be impossible to try and track 1091 00:51:32,719 --> 00:51:34,719 Speaker 2: it down. We just need to basically accept. 1092 00:51:34,360 --> 00:51:38,160 Speaker 22: That, I think absolutely. I think the problem at the 1093 00:51:38,239 --> 00:51:40,439 Speaker 22: moment is that we're still trying to think in old 1094 00:51:40,440 --> 00:51:42,600 Speaker 22: school ways. We're still trying to be able to detect 1095 00:51:42,680 --> 00:51:46,080 Speaker 22: cheating by using essays and just passing them through a 1096 00:51:46,160 --> 00:51:49,120 Speaker 22: number of different softwares. But there's always been ways of 1097 00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:51,360 Speaker 22: kind of getting around that if the student was savvy 1098 00:51:51,440 --> 00:51:55,040 Speaker 22: enough to and had the want to investigate ways online 1099 00:51:55,040 --> 00:51:56,400 Speaker 22: to be able to do it. 1100 00:51:56,560 --> 00:51:59,480 Speaker 2: Do you think that we basically need to acknowledge that 1101 00:51:59,680 --> 00:52:01,880 Speaker 2: kids are going to be using AI, We are going 1102 00:52:01,920 --> 00:52:04,120 Speaker 2: to be using AI, and we need to incorporate into 1103 00:52:04,719 --> 00:52:07,680 Speaker 2: just incorporated into what they're doing at university. 1104 00:52:08,880 --> 00:52:12,160 Speaker 22: Absolutely, Look people in university, people in high school. Now 1105 00:52:12,320 --> 00:52:13,799 Speaker 22: it's going to be a tool of choice that they're 1106 00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:16,319 Speaker 22: going to be using when they leave, when they lead 1107 00:52:16,320 --> 00:52:18,480 Speaker 22: the education and go into the real world. So I 1108 00:52:18,480 --> 00:52:21,040 Speaker 22: think we should be using it more as a learning tool, 1109 00:52:21,120 --> 00:52:24,640 Speaker 22: something that has the great ability to help improve processes 1110 00:52:24,680 --> 00:52:28,080 Speaker 22: and save time and make us more productive. And unfortunately, 1111 00:52:28,160 --> 00:52:30,799 Speaker 22: at the moment, our education system isn't set up to 1112 00:52:30,920 --> 00:52:33,359 Speaker 22: assess in different ways, And I think that's what's got 1113 00:52:33,400 --> 00:52:35,480 Speaker 22: to change the way that we assess our students. 1114 00:52:36,280 --> 00:52:38,880 Speaker 2: Danny, thanks very much, really appreciated. Danny Beddingfield AI and 1115 00:52:39,080 --> 00:52:41,360 Speaker 2: Education experts. Twenty one away from six. 1116 00:52:41,800 --> 00:52:45,239 Speaker 1: The Huddle with New Zealand Southeby's International Realty. Find you 1117 00:52:45,239 --> 00:52:46,120 Speaker 1: all one of a kind. 1118 00:52:46,920 --> 00:52:49,320 Speaker 2: On the huddle this evening, We've got Morris Williamson Auckland 1119 00:52:49,320 --> 00:52:52,160 Speaker 2: Council obviously former National Party minister and Ali Jones read 1120 00:52:52,160 --> 00:52:54,520 Speaker 2: pr and christ Church Local Board Meaner Hollore you two. 1121 00:52:55,360 --> 00:52:57,799 Speaker 16: Good a good evening, Heather, and good evening Ali. 1122 00:52:58,480 --> 00:52:58,560 Speaker 1: Hi. 1123 00:52:58,680 --> 00:53:01,320 Speaker 2: Marris Marris wa did you of the pay equity announcement. 1124 00:53:03,000 --> 00:53:05,680 Speaker 16: I think it's a sensible move because they're not getting 1125 00:53:05,719 --> 00:53:08,040 Speaker 16: rid of pay equity. Pay equity will be here to stay. 1126 00:53:08,280 --> 00:53:10,640 Speaker 16: But it's how you do the comparators. And I've had 1127 00:53:10,640 --> 00:53:13,200 Speaker 16: a number of companies and employers raise it with me 1128 00:53:13,280 --> 00:53:17,319 Speaker 16: along the way, saying that the ludicrous comparator of some 1129 00:53:17,520 --> 00:53:21,440 Speaker 16: staff they've got with another occupation I think. I I mean, 1130 00:53:21,480 --> 00:53:23,279 Speaker 16: I've heard the Minister in the House today saying that 1131 00:53:23,520 --> 00:53:25,880 Speaker 16: Health New Zealand and the clerical staff were being compared 1132 00:53:25,880 --> 00:53:30,560 Speaker 16: to mechanical engineers. Health New Zealand librarians to transport engineers, 1133 00:53:30,680 --> 00:53:33,880 Speaker 16: and the one I love was Oranga tamariki social workers 1134 00:53:33,880 --> 00:53:38,560 Speaker 16: to air traffic controllers. There's just lunacy, geer lunacy. So 1135 00:53:38,680 --> 00:53:41,040 Speaker 16: the idea of pay equity is good, but make sure 1136 00:53:41,080 --> 00:53:42,360 Speaker 16: you get the comparators sorted. 1137 00:53:42,480 --> 00:53:43,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree. 1138 00:53:43,560 --> 00:53:45,320 Speaker 23: What do you think about it, Ali, Well, there's no 1139 00:53:45,760 --> 00:53:47,880 Speaker 23: doubt in my mind that the coalition's using this to 1140 00:53:47,920 --> 00:53:51,680 Speaker 23: fund the budget. Absolutely nothing they have said today Luxeon 1141 00:53:51,960 --> 00:53:55,120 Speaker 23: or van Wolden has made sense. So I heard Christopher 1142 00:53:55,160 --> 00:53:57,600 Speaker 23: Luxelon say we're making sure we have a process that 1143 00:53:57,719 --> 00:54:01,919 Speaker 23: is more robust, workable and sustainable than what I mean. 1144 00:54:02,040 --> 00:54:04,279 Speaker 23: I have been involved with the College of Midwives pay 1145 00:54:04,280 --> 00:54:08,040 Speaker 23: equity case. I'm not any longer. The hopes they had 1146 00:54:08,040 --> 00:54:12,480 Speaker 23: to jump through the independent, very expensive reports that they 1147 00:54:12,480 --> 00:54:17,040 Speaker 23: had to pay for to get robust and accepted comparators. 1148 00:54:17,320 --> 00:54:21,400 Speaker 23: And this is also for Marius. The midwives union was huge. Morris, 1149 00:54:21,440 --> 00:54:24,800 Speaker 23: I think you're being incredibly disingenuous when you start talking about, 1150 00:54:24,960 --> 00:54:28,560 Speaker 23: you know, comparing librarians with engineers or so forth. Once 1151 00:54:28,640 --> 00:54:31,640 Speaker 23: it gets to a negotiation into a court case, as 1152 00:54:31,640 --> 00:54:34,360 Speaker 23: it has with the midwives, you just don't get that 1153 00:54:34,480 --> 00:54:39,200 Speaker 23: stuff accepted without robust, independent reports, so I think they're 1154 00:54:39,200 --> 00:54:42,040 Speaker 23: actually changing something that doesn't need changing. 1155 00:54:42,719 --> 00:54:45,320 Speaker 2: Who were the midwives comparing themselves to By the way, Allie. 1156 00:54:45,840 --> 00:54:47,879 Speaker 23: That's a good question, and that's one but I haven't 1157 00:54:47,920 --> 00:54:50,359 Speaker 23: managed to look at and pull up today. But the 1158 00:54:50,360 --> 00:54:53,319 Speaker 23: PwC report, I think it was PwC that did it. 1159 00:54:54,480 --> 00:54:57,320 Speaker 23: They looked at the number of years that someone studies 1160 00:54:57,400 --> 00:55:03,279 Speaker 23: for what their experiences and what their life protection responsibilities 1161 00:55:03,320 --> 00:55:04,480 Speaker 23: are in the work that they do. 1162 00:55:04,600 --> 00:55:05,920 Speaker 2: So there are a whole. 1163 00:55:05,800 --> 00:55:09,320 Speaker 23: Lot of different things that it might have been, for example, 1164 00:55:09,400 --> 00:55:12,160 Speaker 23: a police detective. I'm not sure, don't quote me on that, 1165 00:55:12,680 --> 00:55:16,520 Speaker 23: but it is done in a very scientific, very very 1166 00:55:17,280 --> 00:55:20,600 Speaker 23: independent and robust waste. So I was curious to hear 1167 00:55:20,640 --> 00:55:23,120 Speaker 23: Brook van Velden say that rubbish to so Allie. 1168 00:55:22,960 --> 00:55:25,640 Speaker 16: Well, those comparators I gave you here that are actually 1169 00:55:25,719 --> 00:55:28,120 Speaker 16: in claims, because I've seen the copies of them and 1170 00:55:28,200 --> 00:55:29,839 Speaker 16: I thought the best one I've seen, I haven't even 1171 00:55:29,880 --> 00:55:33,080 Speaker 16: yes that one use this one. Corrections officers have been 1172 00:55:33,200 --> 00:55:36,880 Speaker 16: used as a comparator for nurses claims, for admin's support 1173 00:55:36,920 --> 00:55:39,560 Speaker 16: staff claims, and for teacher aids. Now, I don't think 1174 00:55:39,560 --> 00:55:41,919 Speaker 16: they've got anything to do with each other, whether one's 1175 00:55:41,960 --> 00:55:44,400 Speaker 16: better or not, or bigger or less. But I just 1176 00:55:44,440 --> 00:55:46,880 Speaker 16: think to use them as a comparator for the work 1177 00:55:46,920 --> 00:55:48,200 Speaker 16: you do is just wrong. 1178 00:55:48,400 --> 00:55:49,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, but we don't know that, Morris. 1179 00:55:49,920 --> 00:55:52,879 Speaker 23: That's what the Price Waterhouse Cooper's report does. It looks 1180 00:55:52,920 --> 00:55:55,640 Speaker 23: at how long people study. It looks at their degree 1181 00:55:55,640 --> 00:55:58,759 Speaker 23: of responsibility. It looks at the life protection and the 1182 00:55:58,800 --> 00:56:01,120 Speaker 23: work that they do. It looks at their earnings. We 1183 00:56:01,280 --> 00:56:04,160 Speaker 23: can't sit here as lay people and say, oh, an 1184 00:56:04,200 --> 00:56:05,520 Speaker 23: engineer is nothing like. 1185 00:56:05,680 --> 00:56:06,160 Speaker 3: X y Z. 1186 00:56:06,440 --> 00:56:08,680 Speaker 23: It's got to be done properly. So those claims that 1187 00:56:08,680 --> 00:56:11,640 Speaker 23: you're talking about are likely, if they don't stack up, 1188 00:56:11,840 --> 00:56:14,560 Speaker 23: to be kicked out. So the process in the system 1189 00:56:14,640 --> 00:56:17,560 Speaker 23: is already there. This is purely to get money that 1190 00:56:17,600 --> 00:56:19,359 Speaker 23: they can put towards the budget, no. 1191 00:56:19,320 --> 00:56:22,680 Speaker 2: Doubt, Allie. In which case, then if the claims will 1192 00:56:23,120 --> 00:56:25,200 Speaker 2: the thirty three claims that have been sopped, they will 1193 00:56:25,200 --> 00:56:28,880 Speaker 2: simply be reapplying presumably under the new rules. It is 1194 00:56:29,000 --> 00:56:30,759 Speaker 2: just deferring the spend, then, isn't it. 1195 00:56:31,760 --> 00:56:33,640 Speaker 23: Well, yes, it is deferring the spend. But we all 1196 00:56:33,680 --> 00:56:35,440 Speaker 23: know and Morris will know this too, that when you're 1197 00:56:35,480 --> 00:56:38,240 Speaker 23: working either with long term plans at a city council level, 1198 00:56:38,520 --> 00:56:40,400 Speaker 23: or you're doing it through a budget at a national 1199 00:56:40,440 --> 00:56:43,720 Speaker 23: government level. Being able to defirst, spend and move money 1200 00:56:43,719 --> 00:56:47,400 Speaker 23: around is absolutely key in presenting of the budget. And 1201 00:56:47,440 --> 00:56:49,839 Speaker 23: the point that she made about just starting again, it 1202 00:56:49,880 --> 00:56:53,239 Speaker 23: was kind of just dropped into conversation. This case that 1203 00:56:53,280 --> 00:56:56,920 Speaker 23: the midwives have been running has been going for nearly 1204 00:56:56,960 --> 00:56:59,919 Speaker 23: a decade. The decision has been reserved for nearly a year, 1205 00:57:00,320 --> 00:57:03,440 Speaker 23: and it has cost them thousands and thousands of dollars. 1206 00:57:03,680 --> 00:57:05,080 Speaker 23: Is that just going to be chucked out the window? 1207 00:57:05,080 --> 00:57:06,920 Speaker 2: And she does, Yes, it will be, won't it? Because 1208 00:57:06,920 --> 00:57:10,080 Speaker 2: it is retrospective. This law is retrospective, So it stops 1209 00:57:10,080 --> 00:57:11,319 Speaker 2: everything in its tracks, doesn't it. 1210 00:57:11,920 --> 00:57:13,440 Speaker 23: Yeah, that I don't know, And I've just been in 1211 00:57:13,480 --> 00:57:16,439 Speaker 23: touch with the college head now and she does, well, 1212 00:57:16,440 --> 00:57:16,800 Speaker 23: it's out. 1213 00:57:16,920 --> 00:57:19,480 Speaker 16: It does it retrospect. But how about if you get 1214 00:57:19,480 --> 00:57:22,560 Speaker 16: a much better sort of clarity about the comparators and 1215 00:57:22,600 --> 00:57:25,880 Speaker 16: the definitions into the legislation and then you don't have 1216 00:57:26,240 --> 00:57:30,080 Speaker 16: these wild and swings of there is no way that 1217 00:57:30,160 --> 00:57:32,000 Speaker 16: some of these occupations are comparisons. 1218 00:57:32,080 --> 00:57:34,240 Speaker 23: Why does it need to be in the legislation, Morris, 1219 00:57:34,480 --> 00:57:38,320 Speaker 23: It's in the negotiations, and they vary so much, particularly 1220 00:57:38,400 --> 00:57:41,000 Speaker 23: with women. Where you've got and who one of your 1221 00:57:41,400 --> 00:57:44,440 Speaker 23: texts say earlier, Heather, Oh you can't compare. You know 1222 00:57:44,480 --> 00:57:46,720 Speaker 23: what was it a librarian with an engineer. They've got 1223 00:57:46,720 --> 00:57:48,520 Speaker 23: to be men and women in the same job. The 1224 00:57:48,560 --> 00:57:52,320 Speaker 23: point is most of these professions have got only women 1225 00:57:52,480 --> 00:57:55,160 Speaker 23: in them. That's what a comparator is for. So I 1226 00:57:55,160 --> 00:57:56,720 Speaker 23: don't think people actually understand that. 1227 00:57:57,880 --> 00:57:59,280 Speaker 2: All right, we'll take a break with you guys. Come 1228 00:57:59,280 --> 00:58:01,160 Speaker 2: back and just to take sixteen away from six. 1229 00:58:02,280 --> 00:58:05,840 Speaker 1: The huddle with New Zealand South East International Realty achieve 1230 00:58:05,920 --> 00:58:08,320 Speaker 1: extraordinary results with unparallel reach. 1231 00:58:08,520 --> 00:58:10,640 Speaker 2: Back of the huddle, Morris Williams and Ali Jones, Ali, 1232 00:58:10,760 --> 00:58:12,520 Speaker 2: what did you make of the NATS pretending they're going 1233 00:58:12,560 --> 00:58:15,720 Speaker 2: to do something about banning kids from social media? 1234 00:58:15,840 --> 00:58:16,520 Speaker 4: Oh? 1235 00:58:16,680 --> 00:58:19,440 Speaker 23: Look, when you get into the detail of it, I 1236 00:58:19,440 --> 00:58:22,400 Speaker 23: think some of the comments that some of the politicians 1237 00:58:22,400 --> 00:58:26,480 Speaker 23: have made are fair enough. They're talking about putting some restrictions, 1238 00:58:26,520 --> 00:58:29,840 Speaker 23: putting some parameters, putting some controls around it that you know, 1239 00:58:29,880 --> 00:58:32,160 Speaker 23: we try and help our kids in many ways in 1240 00:58:32,200 --> 00:58:35,040 Speaker 23: their lives in New Zealand, and this is causing a 1241 00:58:35,120 --> 00:58:39,560 Speaker 23: huge problem just almost unfettered access to the Internet. So look, 1242 00:58:39,600 --> 00:58:42,320 Speaker 23: I think banning is probably not what they're going to do. 1243 00:58:42,360 --> 00:58:44,040 Speaker 23: It all depends what the terms of reference are and 1244 00:58:44,080 --> 00:58:45,640 Speaker 23: what the outcomes expected, I think. 1245 00:58:45,960 --> 00:58:48,640 Speaker 2: I mean, if you really were going to do something Morris, 1246 00:58:48,640 --> 00:58:50,520 Speaker 2: you wouldn't do it as a member's bill, would you. 1247 00:58:50,320 --> 00:58:52,520 Speaker 2: You do it as good it does as a government bill, 1248 00:58:52,600 --> 00:58:54,920 Speaker 2: or get some crosspases and never gets. 1249 00:58:54,800 --> 00:58:56,920 Speaker 16: Seen again, so it's got your headlined today and you'll 1250 00:58:56,920 --> 00:59:00,400 Speaker 16: never remember it again. I actually think it's a great idea. 1251 00:59:00,480 --> 00:59:03,480 Speaker 16: I've got very serious concerns about how you make it 1252 00:59:03,560 --> 00:59:06,360 Speaker 16: work and how you implemented and how easy it is 1253 00:59:06,400 --> 00:59:08,720 Speaker 16: to get around it, because these tech companies will set 1254 00:59:08,800 --> 00:59:12,800 Speaker 16: up new products which won't be called social media products. 1255 00:59:12,800 --> 00:59:15,520 Speaker 16: They'll be streaming service or something else, and you'll still 1256 00:59:15,520 --> 00:59:17,640 Speaker 16: be able to put your material in. I just think 1257 00:59:17,680 --> 00:59:21,000 Speaker 16: the kids' minds are being warped so badly by social media. 1258 00:59:21,040 --> 00:59:24,120 Speaker 16: I think it's really changing the world in a really 1259 00:59:24,160 --> 00:59:26,680 Speaker 16: bad way. And if there is a way. When my 1260 00:59:26,760 --> 00:59:28,360 Speaker 16: kids grow up, we had to try and find a 1261 00:59:28,400 --> 00:59:31,240 Speaker 16: way to blocking the Wi Fi so they couldn't be 1262 00:59:31,240 --> 00:59:33,880 Speaker 16: playing on the social media as it was back and 1263 00:59:33,920 --> 00:59:35,800 Speaker 16: it was only getting started. In the end, we got 1264 00:59:35,800 --> 00:59:37,040 Speaker 16: to the point we didn't know how to do it 1265 00:59:37,040 --> 00:59:39,200 Speaker 16: because the technology didn't allow in those days. So we 1266 00:59:39,320 --> 00:59:41,440 Speaker 16: turned the Wi Fi off at about six o'clock at night, 1267 00:59:41,560 --> 00:59:43,240 Speaker 16: and Raymond would complain to me, I want to go 1268 00:59:43,240 --> 00:59:44,480 Speaker 16: on to the Internet and look, as I said, well, 1269 00:59:44,520 --> 00:59:46,439 Speaker 16: you can't because it's all blocked off so that kids 1270 00:59:46,440 --> 00:59:48,439 Speaker 16: can't get on the wall. I think it's the best 1271 00:59:48,440 --> 00:59:50,320 Speaker 16: thing to do is to stop your kids from seeing 1272 00:59:50,320 --> 00:59:53,320 Speaker 16: this stuff because they are exposed to garbage on that stuff. 1273 00:59:53,360 --> 00:59:55,560 Speaker 2: I would have thought, Morris, that there's a reasonable number 1274 00:59:55,560 --> 00:59:58,400 Speaker 2: of votes out there from parents, you know, parents like 1275 00:59:58,440 --> 01:00:01,840 Speaker 2: yourself who've been through, parents like myself who face the 1276 01:00:01,880 --> 01:00:03,560 Speaker 2: prospect of going through it like there must be a 1277 01:00:03,720 --> 01:00:06,600 Speaker 2: huge number and grandparents, So there must be a huge 1278 01:00:06,680 --> 01:00:08,720 Speaker 2: number of votes in actually doing this properly and getting 1279 01:00:08,720 --> 01:00:10,280 Speaker 2: it right correct. 1280 01:00:10,360 --> 01:00:11,600 Speaker 16: And the only way you'll get it right is if 1281 01:00:11,600 --> 01:00:13,120 Speaker 16: you do it as a government bill with all the 1282 01:00:13,200 --> 01:00:17,720 Speaker 16: necessary advisors in there, and the contestable advice about how 1283 01:00:17,800 --> 01:00:20,400 Speaker 16: you make it work, how you get around the tech 1284 01:00:20,440 --> 01:00:23,160 Speaker 16: companies trying to skirt around it. Put some penalties in 1285 01:00:23,240 --> 01:00:26,000 Speaker 16: place that they can get pinged and stung quite badly 1286 01:00:26,240 --> 01:00:29,520 Speaker 16: if they're proven to misbehave because it's a great idea. 1287 01:00:29,640 --> 01:00:32,320 Speaker 16: I just it's really hard to do, That's all I'm saying. 1288 01:00:32,320 --> 01:00:34,480 Speaker 2: Too, right, Hey, Alie, I'm still not even though three 1289 01:00:34,480 --> 01:00:36,120 Speaker 2: of them have done it now with the gmails, I'm 1290 01:00:36,160 --> 01:00:38,840 Speaker 2: still not that exercised by it, are you No? 1291 01:00:39,000 --> 01:00:39,080 Speaker 17: Not? 1292 01:00:39,200 --> 01:00:39,480 Speaker 6: Really? 1293 01:00:39,680 --> 01:00:42,080 Speaker 23: Look, this was actually really close to home for me 1294 01:00:42,240 --> 01:00:44,760 Speaker 23: because I can't do everything that I need to do 1295 01:00:44,760 --> 01:00:47,640 Speaker 23: in my elected role with my counselor email. I can't screenshot, 1296 01:00:47,680 --> 01:00:49,960 Speaker 23: I can't copy and paste, and apparently this is all 1297 01:00:49,960 --> 01:00:52,960 Speaker 23: down to security and obviously it's a trust issue as well. 1298 01:00:53,000 --> 01:00:53,960 Speaker 23: I know it's bloody. 1299 01:00:54,320 --> 01:00:55,400 Speaker 2: It's very frustrated. 1300 01:00:55,840 --> 01:00:57,920 Speaker 23: So I have to will I have to forward it 1301 01:00:57,960 --> 01:01:00,200 Speaker 23: to my red pr email and do things from there, 1302 01:01:00,240 --> 01:01:02,400 Speaker 23: which the Council's happy about because then if there's a 1303 01:01:02,480 --> 01:01:05,320 Speaker 23: leak thing though, it's me sending it to my work email. 1304 01:01:05,640 --> 01:01:08,400 Speaker 23: But I know what the frustrations are. What I'm more 1305 01:01:08,440 --> 01:01:11,560 Speaker 23: concerned about is how these ministers aren't able to do 1306 01:01:11,600 --> 01:01:13,840 Speaker 23: the jobs that they are supposed to be doing. How 1307 01:01:13,960 --> 01:01:15,800 Speaker 23: hard is it to make sure you can print. 1308 01:01:15,800 --> 01:01:17,800 Speaker 2: Too, right?

But I was quite impressed that actually 1313 01:01:28,800 --> 01:01:31,280 Speaker 2: TVs HA managed to get like a couple of folders 1314 01:01:31,640 --> 01:01:33,919 Speaker 2: that Erica actually gave to them out of her own 1315 01:01:33,960 --> 01:01:35,360 Speaker 2: Gmail account.

Morris, Williamson 1359 01:02:59,320 --> 01:03:01,680 Speaker 2: and Allie Jones huddle this evening ate away from six. 1360 01:03:03,080 --> 01:03:06,600 Speaker 1: It's the Heather Duplessy Allen Drive Full Show podcast on 1361 01:03:06,800 --> 01:03:09,200 Speaker 1: my Art Radio powered by News Talk ZB. 1362 01:03:11,120 --> 01:03:13,760 Speaker 2: Heather Morris is talking like a real matematic college man 1363 01:03:13,800 --> 01:03:15,560 Speaker 2: got on him. Now I was just I was scratching 1364 01:03:15,560 --> 01:03:17,200 Speaker 2: my brains trying to remember what he was talking about. 1365 01:03:17,240 --> 01:03:18,800 Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure that was back in the days of 1366 01:03:18,800 --> 01:03:23,000 Speaker 2: seven Sharp. Oh yeah, that's right. I worked for seven Sharp. 1367 01:03:23,040 --> 01:03:26,680 Speaker 2: I didn't get this tabloid attitude from nowhere anyway, So 1368 01:03:26,760 --> 01:03:28,200 Speaker 2: back I think it was when I was working back 1369 01:03:28,200 --> 01:03:31,200 Speaker 2: at seven SHARP. I did a story about how you 1370 01:03:31,280 --> 01:03:33,920 Speaker 2: have to be really careful with what it is that 1371 01:03:34,000 --> 01:03:36,080 Speaker 2: you're doing on the public wi fi is like using 1372 01:03:36,080 --> 01:03:38,760 Speaker 2: your Gmail account and stuff like that. A data guy 1373 01:03:39,520 --> 01:03:41,000 Speaker 2: proved it to me. He said to me, come with me, 1374 01:03:41,040 --> 01:03:42,800 Speaker 2: We'll go use a public WiFi somewhere. So we went 1375 01:03:42,840 --> 01:03:44,760 Speaker 2: in all Clinton said at the Altier Center. I'm pretty 1376 01:03:44,760 --> 01:03:46,919 Speaker 2: sure this is the story said at the Altier Center. 1377 01:03:46,960 --> 01:03:48,720 Speaker 2: Hopped up to the public WiFi there and he was like, 1378 01:03:48,800 --> 01:03:51,040 Speaker 2: send an email. So I went into my Gmail account 1379 01:03:51,080 --> 01:03:54,040 Speaker 2: and I sent an email, and he read to me 1380 01:03:54,520 --> 01:03:56,800 Speaker 2: what I had just typed in my email because he 1381 01:03:56,880 --> 01:03:59,560 Speaker 2: was like, he was like, it's just basically a combination 1382 01:03:59,640 --> 01:04:01,760 Speaker 2: of what they look at, these nerdy guys, you know, 1383 01:04:01,800 --> 01:04:04,280 Speaker 2: the data guys. He could see everything I was doing, 1384 01:04:04,280 --> 01:04:07,280 Speaker 2: and he was like, never ever ever, use your bank account. 1385 01:04:07,520 --> 01:04:09,240 Speaker 2: Don't log into your bank account when you're on the 1386 01:04:09,240 --> 01:04:11,560 Speaker 2: public wifis because the people will see what your pin 1387 01:04:11,600 --> 01:04:14,160 Speaker 2: code is. A blah blah. After that, I basically never 1388 01:04:14,240 --> 01:04:16,040 Speaker 2: use public WiFi for anything, like I use it to 1389 01:04:16,040 --> 01:04:18,320 Speaker 2: watch the Netflix. Who cares, But don't go and do 1390 01:04:18,360 --> 01:04:20,560 Speaker 2: your emails because they can actually sit if they can 1391 01:04:20,560 --> 01:04:21,920 Speaker 2: sit there and they can find you, and then they 1392 01:04:21,920 --> 01:04:24,439 Speaker 2: can watch what you're doing. Obviously, nobody cares about you 1393 01:04:25,440 --> 01:04:28,400 Speaker 2: or me because who cares what we're sending in our emails. 1394 01:04:28,440 --> 01:04:30,720 Speaker 2: They're borrying. But if you if somebody's like, oh this 1395 01:04:30,880 --> 01:04:33,480 Speaker 2: Nikola or she's on the Gmail, oh okay, then they're 1396 01:04:33,480 --> 01:04:37,440 Speaker 2: interested in that. By the way, By the way, the opposition, 1397 01:04:37,520 --> 01:04:40,560 Speaker 2: as predicted, is going to town on the pay equity 1398 01:04:40,600 --> 01:04:43,440 Speaker 2: stuff in parliament tonight. They're doing press conferences up the 1399 01:04:43,440 --> 01:04:45,760 Speaker 2: wazoo about it. Here's Julie and Genter. 1400 01:04:45,520 --> 01:04:47,560 Speaker 24: And the thing that really kills me about this is 1401 01:04:47,800 --> 01:04:50,880 Speaker 24: there is no limit to the amount of money these 1402 01:04:50,880 --> 01:04:54,080 Speaker 24: people will spend on a road. There is literally no 1403 01:04:54,280 --> 01:04:57,080 Speaker 24: limits the amount of money they will spend on a road, 1404 01:04:57,800 --> 01:05:04,000 Speaker 24: as if some timac somehow magically creates economic growth. But 1405 01:05:04,200 --> 01:05:06,040 Speaker 24: investing in people doesn't. 1406 01:05:06,760 --> 01:05:11,200 Speaker 2: Only Julian Jenter can turn a debate about paying women 1407 01:05:11,320 --> 01:05:14,440 Speaker 2: something into a debate about rhodes am. I right, here's labors, 1408 01:05:14,480 --> 01:05:15,680 Speaker 2: Ginny Anderson. 1409 01:05:15,360 --> 01:05:18,280 Speaker 25: Because this government is quite happy for them to clean 1410 01:05:18,280 --> 01:05:21,200 Speaker 25: their toilets and clean their flaws and do all their 1411 01:05:21,280 --> 01:05:24,440 Speaker 25: duty work, but they're not prepared to pay them what 1412 01:05:24,520 --> 01:05:28,720 Speaker 25: they're worth. And that is going to come back and 1413 01:05:28,840 --> 01:05:31,240 Speaker 25: bite this government at the next election. 1414 01:05:31,560 --> 01:05:32,080 Speaker 2: Do you want more? 1415 01:05:32,160 --> 01:05:32,560 Speaker 3: Nay, you don't. 1416 01:05:32,600 --> 01:05:35,040 Speaker 2: Anyway, you can see where it is.

The current regime allows workers from secors sectors 1454 01:07:21,920 --> 01:07:24,480 Speaker 2: with a large female workforce to argue that they are 1455 01:07:24,560 --> 01:07:27,920 Speaker 2: underpaid relative to similar work done in male dominated sectors. 1456 01:07:28,160 --> 01:07:30,720 Speaker 2: Thirty three current claims are going to stop immediately.

You don't love this. 1460 01:07:42,240 --> 01:07:44,760 Speaker 26: No, we're really disappointed with it. In fact, we've called 1461 01:07:44,800 --> 01:07:49,520 Speaker 26: it shameful and our members are really upset about this. 1462 01:07:49,640 --> 01:07:51,240 Speaker 4: They've been ringing an all day about it. 1463 01:07:51,440 --> 01:07:53,280 Speaker 2: Okay, so you have got about it, right am I 1464 01:07:53,360 --> 01:07:55,280 Speaker 2: right in thinking about ten claims underway? 1465 01:07:56,400 --> 01:07:57,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, we've got ten claims. 1466 01:07:58,280 --> 01:08:01,960 Speaker 26: Our position has been really clear once we settle the 1467 01:08:02,000 --> 01:08:06,000 Speaker 26: defuntal or or the hospital's pay equity claim a couple 1468 01:08:06,040 --> 01:08:09,320 Speaker 26: of years ago, that we wanted to put a claim 1469 01:08:09,360 --> 01:08:12,720 Speaker 26: across all the rest of the nurses, right across primary 1470 01:08:12,720 --> 01:08:15,640 Speaker 26: health and age care and the like, and that's what 1471 01:08:15,640 --> 01:08:18,160 Speaker 26: we've been endeavoring to do. So that's quite quite a 1472 01:08:18,280 --> 01:08:21,880 Speaker 26: very extensive claim. The idea for that is to try 1473 01:08:21,880 --> 01:08:25,719 Speaker 26: and eliminate the gender discrimination aspect and their wage rates 1474 01:08:26,840 --> 01:08:29,800 Speaker 26: in order to start to move towards paparity. 1475 01:08:30,160 --> 01:08:32,400 Speaker 2: Now under the new regime, will all ten of your 1476 01:08:32,439 --> 01:08:36,360 Speaker 2: claims be able to be resubmitted? Will they still qualify. 1477 01:08:38,080 --> 01:08:38,519 Speaker 4: Well? 1478 01:08:38,840 --> 01:08:42,479 Speaker 26: Without seeing the detail of the legislation, but we will, 1479 01:08:42,680 --> 01:08:45,479 Speaker 26: I think that's an important point. We will resubmit for 1480 01:08:45,520 --> 01:08:49,479 Speaker 26: every one of those claims, and we are quite confident 1481 01:08:50,000 --> 01:08:52,160 Speaker 26: from what we can read in the legislation that they 1482 01:08:52,560 --> 01:08:53,719 Speaker 26: would stand a really good. 1483 01:08:53,640 --> 01:08:54,400 Speaker 4: Chance of going through. 1484 01:08:54,400 --> 01:08:58,559 Speaker 26: But the problem here is it's been incredibly bureaucratic trying 1485 01:08:58,560 --> 01:09:01,160 Speaker 26: to get our claims this far, and now we've got 1486 01:09:01,200 --> 01:09:01,920 Speaker 26: to start again. 1487 01:09:02,280 --> 01:09:03,960 Speaker 4: I know a number of employers. 1488 01:09:03,520 --> 01:09:06,800 Speaker 26: Are really hurting about that, and we're going to start 1489 01:09:06,840 --> 01:09:08,160 Speaker 26: again under another regime. 1490 01:09:08,760 --> 01:09:11,240 Speaker 4: It just adds more years to it. Quite frankly, do 1491 01:09:11,320 --> 01:09:11,960 Speaker 4: you know off. 1492 01:09:11,840 --> 01:09:14,960 Speaker 2: The top of your head, Paul, who your workers were 1493 01:09:14,960 --> 01:09:18,120 Speaker 2: comparing themselves to, So, for example, your plunket workers what 1494 01:09:18,280 --> 01:09:21,200 Speaker 2: was the comparison with what male dominated industry. 1495 01:09:22,280 --> 01:09:25,439 Speaker 26: We hadn't got to that. We were just short of that. 1496 01:09:25,520 --> 01:09:30,400 Speaker 26: We just had a couple more interviews on what the 1497 01:09:30,479 --> 01:09:34,639 Speaker 26: jobs actually were that Plunket nurses were doing, and other 1498 01:09:34,680 --> 01:09:38,920 Speaker 26: occupations within Plunket, and then you moved to a conversation 1499 01:09:39,160 --> 01:09:41,519 Speaker 26: or a bargain if you like, with the employers about 1500 01:09:41,520 --> 01:09:45,120 Speaker 26: which comparators would be in place, and then if you 1501 01:09:45,240 --> 01:09:47,000 Speaker 26: argue about that, you could go to arbitration. 1502 01:09:47,600 --> 01:09:49,639 Speaker 4: Hopefully we would have worked through that pretty quickly. 1503 01:09:49,680 --> 01:09:51,280 Speaker 2: What about age care? Do you know who they were 1504 01:09:51,280 --> 01:09:52,160 Speaker 2: comparing themselves to? 1505 01:09:52,920 --> 01:09:53,480 Speaker 4: No. 1506 01:09:53,479 --> 01:09:54,840 Speaker 3: No, Again, as with. 1507 01:09:54,800 --> 01:09:56,520 Speaker 2: All of them, it hadn't got to that stage. 1508 01:09:57,240 --> 01:10:00,280 Speaker 26: Yeah, with nurses, I can speak for the nurses part 1509 01:10:00,320 --> 01:10:04,400 Speaker 26: of age here. We certainly hadn't got to that. And 1510 01:10:04,439 --> 01:10:06,960 Speaker 26: we had been working closely with the Age Care Association 1511 01:10:08,120 --> 01:10:10,679 Speaker 26: to try and move this long as quickly as possible, 1512 01:10:10,920 --> 01:10:13,800 Speaker 26: and we hadn't got to that stage either. The care 1513 01:10:13,840 --> 01:10:16,479 Speaker 26: and support workers claim is a bit different, and I'm 1514 01:10:16,520 --> 01:10:19,000 Speaker 26: not quite sure who their comparators were with care and 1515 01:10:19,040 --> 01:10:22,200 Speaker 26: support and that reaches across into some age care facilities 1516 01:10:22,320 --> 01:10:23,400 Speaker 26: or age care facilities. 1517 01:10:23,479 --> 01:10:25,280 Speaker 2: Okay, now, is it fair to say Paul that your 1518 01:10:25,320 --> 01:10:27,280 Speaker 2: primary complaint is just the fact that this is going 1519 01:10:27,320 --> 01:10:30,080 Speaker 2: to take longer. Right, there's no indication that your cases 1520 01:10:30,080 --> 01:10:32,160 Speaker 2: are not going to succeed or anything like that. You 1521 01:10:32,200 --> 01:10:34,479 Speaker 2: might still get there, it's just that it takes longer, 1522 01:10:36,640 --> 01:10:37,200 Speaker 2: but it's. 1523 01:10:37,040 --> 01:10:41,160 Speaker 26: Now weighted more heavily against getting the outcomes we think 1524 01:10:41,160 --> 01:10:47,840 Speaker 26: are appropriate. Well, there's a number of early stages which 1525 01:10:47,880 --> 01:10:51,840 Speaker 26: they seem just reading the media releases to have introduced, 1526 01:10:52,000 --> 01:10:56,360 Speaker 26: are going to introduce to prove that it's a female 1527 01:10:56,439 --> 01:11:00,599 Speaker 26: dominated occupation. You're going to move from sixty percent female 1528 01:11:00,600 --> 01:11:05,080 Speaker 26: to seventy percent that in some trades or occupations would 1529 01:11:05,080 --> 01:11:10,000 Speaker 26: give a problem. Then there's grounds for extended grounds for 1530 01:11:10,080 --> 01:11:12,000 Speaker 26: knocking out the claim. It's going to be harder to 1531 01:11:12,040 --> 01:11:15,840 Speaker 26: do a multi employer claim those sorts of things, and 1532 01:11:16,560 --> 01:11:22,960 Speaker 26: employers have got an increased ability to basically make the 1533 01:11:23,000 --> 01:11:25,439 Speaker 26: whole thing a lot more difficult, which is quite ironic 1534 01:11:25,520 --> 01:11:28,840 Speaker 26: in health because we've been working closely with the employers 1535 01:11:28,880 --> 01:11:31,880 Speaker 26: across all age care and GPS and the like to 1536 01:11:31,880 --> 01:11:35,760 Speaker 26: try and move this thing along. So and actually we've 1537 01:11:35,800 --> 01:11:38,280 Speaker 26: been had a number of calls from our employers that 1538 01:11:38,320 --> 01:11:40,200 Speaker 26: we've been working with saying what the hell's going on? 1539 01:11:40,240 --> 01:11:41,600 Speaker 26: And where do we go next with us? You're not 1540 01:11:41,640 --> 01:11:43,400 Speaker 26: going to give up, are you? We said no, We're 1541 01:11:43,439 --> 01:11:43,960 Speaker 26: not giving up. 1542 01:11:44,000 --> 01:11:45,599 Speaker 2: All right, Paul, thank you very much for your time. 1543 01:11:45,600 --> 01:11:47,200 Speaker 2: I do appreciate it. Is Paul goal to the chief 1544 01:11:47,240 --> 01:11:50,759 Speaker 2: executive of the Ends of the Nurses Organization. Here's Labor's 1545 01:11:50,760 --> 01:11:51,519 Speaker 2: Meghan Woods. 1546 01:11:51,600 --> 01:11:56,320 Speaker 27: We see a suit, a sea of suits sitting opposite us. 1547 01:11:56,840 --> 01:12:02,000 Speaker 27: I challenge every woman in the government parties to come down, 1548 01:12:02,560 --> 01:12:06,439 Speaker 27: take a call and explain to other women why they 1549 01:12:06,520 --> 01:12:10,720 Speaker 27: think it is their right to legislate away their pathway 1550 01:12:11,080 --> 01:12:14,759 Speaker 27: to dignity and to being valued what they are worth. 1551 01:12:15,280 --> 01:12:17,559 Speaker 2: Heather, if I was lux and I just say, hey, 1552 01:12:17,800 --> 01:12:20,559 Speaker 2: who was the government that locks pregnant Kiwi women out 1553 01:12:20,600 --> 01:12:23,479 Speaker 2: of New Zealand forcing them to give birth overseas? Six 1554 01:12:23,640 --> 01:12:25,400 Speaker 2: thirteen It's the. 1555 01:12:25,439 --> 01:12:28,720 Speaker 1: Heather duper se Allan Drive Full Show podcast on my 1556 01:12:28,880 --> 01:12:31,240 Speaker 1: Heart Radio powered by news dog z Eppie. 1557 01:12:32,160 --> 01:12:34,120 Speaker 2: Hey, although we've said goodbye to summer, it doesn't mean 1558 01:12:34,120 --> 01:12:36,560 Speaker 2: we also have to say goodbye to the refreshing flavors 1559 01:12:36,720 --> 01:12:39,680 Speaker 2: that summer brings. Because Bunderberg, the legendary brewers of the 1560 01:12:39,840 --> 01:12:42,599 Speaker 2: iconic Bunderberg Ginger Beer are coming out with a brand 1561 01:12:42,600 --> 01:12:46,679 Speaker 2: new low sugar range. It's refreshingly lights Sparkling Drink range. 1562 01:12:46,760 --> 01:12:46,920 Speaker 28: Now. 1563 01:12:46,960 --> 01:12:50,080 Speaker 2: It comes in three flavor combos which sound yum, Raspberry 1564 01:12:50,080 --> 01:12:53,200 Speaker 2: and pomegranate, apple and light chey lemon and watermelon. Are 1565 01:12:53,200 --> 01:12:55,600 Speaker 2: they low on sugar? They've got no artificial sweetness, no 1566 01:12:55,680 --> 01:12:58,280 Speaker 2: artificial flavors, no artificial colors.

And the 1568 01:13:01,000 --> 01:13:03,840 Speaker 2: new range has been craft brewed for three days, which 1569 01:13:03,840 --> 01:13:06,920 Speaker 2: sounds like a long time, but actually it's three days 1570 01:13:06,960 --> 01:13:09,360 Speaker 2: to lock in all those incredible flavors. And honestly, you 1571 01:13:09,360 --> 01:13:12,479 Speaker 2: would not expect anything less from Bunderberg. They care about 1572 01:13:12,520 --> 01:13:14,960 Speaker 2: making stuff that just tastes good. It's as simple as that. 1573 01:13:15,240 --> 01:13:18,679 Speaker 2: So to taste Bunderberg's new refreshingly light Sparkling Drink range, 1574 01:13:18,880 --> 01:13:21,679 Speaker 2: you'll find them at most major supermarkets. 1575 01:13:21,000 --> 01:13:25,639 Speaker 1: Now, everything from SMEs to the big corporates. The Business 1576 01:13:25,680 --> 01:13:30,080 Speaker 1: Hour with Heather Duplic, Ellen and Maas Insurance and investments, 1577 01:13:30,320 --> 01:13:32,160 Speaker 1: Grow your wealth, protect your future. 1578 01:13:32,400 --> 01:13:34,599 Speaker 4: These talks end be now. 1579 01:13:34,600 --> 01:13:35,840 Speaker 2: I've got to tell you it's I got to tell 1580 01:13:35,840 --> 01:13:38,200 Speaker 2: you in a minute about Steven Joyce potentially becoming the 1581 01:13:38,280 --> 01:13:40,040 Speaker 2: chair of the company that I work for, and Chippy 1582 01:13:40,120 --> 01:13:41,720 Speaker 2: just being annoying about it. I'll get to that and 1583 01:13:41,760 --> 01:13:43,880 Speaker 2: it take a sixteen past six. Now we're getting a 1584 01:13:43,880 --> 01:13:45,760 Speaker 2: bit of a better idea about how Nikola Willis is 1585 01:13:45,760 --> 01:13:48,320 Speaker 2: going to fund her budget. Later this month we learned 1586 01:13:48,360 --> 01:13:51,120 Speaker 2: that the government today will save one billion dollars over 1587 01:13:51,160 --> 01:13:53,760 Speaker 2: four years because it's hitting its housing target early. And 1588 01:13:53,800 --> 01:13:56,599 Speaker 2: then potentially more than ten billion dollars over four years 1589 01:13:56,640 --> 01:13:59,360 Speaker 2: will be saved from this pay equity system overhaul. Brad 1590 01:13:59,360 --> 01:14:03,479 Speaker 2: Olson's in metrics seeing principal economists. Hey, Brad good evening, 1591 01:14:03,479 --> 01:14:04,960 Speaker 2: what do you make of these two savings? I mean, 1592 01:14:04,960 --> 01:14:06,479 Speaker 2: they're reasonably big, aren't they. 1593 01:14:07,360 --> 01:14:08,160 Speaker 9: The very big? 1594 01:14:08,720 --> 01:14:10,519 Speaker 28: I feel like it's we're back to the future a 1595 01:14:10,520 --> 01:14:12,640 Speaker 28: little bit when you know we're starting to talk and 1596 01:14:12,720 --> 01:14:15,880 Speaker 28: billions of dollars again for just two line items. But 1597 01:14:16,160 --> 01:14:19,000 Speaker 28: again you know that they are quite substantial. And I 1598 01:14:19,040 --> 01:14:21,360 Speaker 28: think also particularly when you look at the lights of 1599 01:14:21,360 --> 01:14:25,880 Speaker 28: the pay equity claims. The Minister's Cabinet paper highlights that 1600 01:14:25,960 --> 01:14:28,760 Speaker 28: already the settlements are costing government one point five to 1601 01:14:28,760 --> 01:14:31,799 Speaker 28: five billion dollars per year, with a number of claims 1602 01:14:31,800 --> 01:14:34,160 Speaker 28: still in the system that of course was going to 1603 01:14:34,240 --> 01:14:37,080 Speaker 28: go up, and so there is now quite a change. 1604 01:14:37,120 --> 01:14:40,559 Speaker 28: The Prime Minister has profiled billions of dollars of savings, 1605 01:14:40,600 --> 01:14:43,519 Speaker 28: although it's not abundantly clear right the second how big 1606 01:14:43,600 --> 01:14:45,559 Speaker 28: that number is the fact that we've got sort of 1607 01:14:45,560 --> 01:14:47,920 Speaker 28: such big savings. I think also goes into what we 1608 01:14:48,000 --> 01:14:51,639 Speaker 28: heard from the Finance Minister last week when the operating 1609 01:14:51,680 --> 01:14:54,640 Speaker 28: allowance was cut back, and that that operating allowance is 1610 01:14:54,680 --> 01:14:57,400 Speaker 28: a net figure. It's the total additional funding that the 1611 01:14:57,400 --> 01:15:01,519 Speaker 28: government can spend. It's not only are just sort of 1612 01:15:01,600 --> 01:15:04,599 Speaker 28: a straight up edition though, it's a net figure. And 1613 01:15:04,640 --> 01:15:07,160 Speaker 28: so with the government now finding a number of additional 1614 01:15:07,760 --> 01:15:11,360 Speaker 28: savings across a few areas, across housing, now across pay equity, 1615 01:15:11,720 --> 01:15:13,920 Speaker 28: that does free up more funding for the government to 1616 01:15:14,000 --> 01:15:16,040 Speaker 28: do other things overall. 1617 01:15:16,120 --> 01:15:19,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, if we're talking about more than ten 1618 01:15:19,120 --> 01:15:21,559 Speaker 2: billion dollars in one line item over four years and 1619 01:15:21,600 --> 01:15:24,160 Speaker 2: a billion dollars and another line item, that makes that 1620 01:15:24,200 --> 01:15:26,879 Speaker 2: one point three billion dollars in the operating allowance suddenly 1621 01:15:26,880 --> 01:15:29,759 Speaker 2: make a little bit more sense, doesn't it. 1622 01:15:29,760 --> 01:15:33,040 Speaker 28: It certainly gives the government more options going forward. I mean, 1623 01:15:33,080 --> 01:15:35,920 Speaker 28: for the likes of the pay equity settlements. Again, I 1624 01:15:35,960 --> 01:15:38,800 Speaker 28: don't think they would have necessarily have been booked to 1625 01:15:38,840 --> 01:15:42,200 Speaker 28: have started all of them immediately at once, but obviously 1626 01:15:42,600 --> 01:15:44,479 Speaker 28: with some of the numbers that are being thrown about 1627 01:15:44,640 --> 01:15:49,200 Speaker 28: and without any real detail there that the cabinet paper 1628 01:15:49,280 --> 01:15:52,840 Speaker 28: is not surprisingly silent on the dollar figures. Those have 1629 01:15:52,960 --> 01:15:56,880 Speaker 28: been fairly well reducted as budget sensitive, but again they 1630 01:15:56,920 --> 01:15:59,719 Speaker 28: do there are big changes that will happen over time, 1631 01:16:00,160 --> 01:16:02,639 Speaker 28: and given that the government does have very limited funding 1632 01:16:02,760 --> 01:16:04,960 Speaker 28: room and has a lot of stuff that they want 1633 01:16:05,000 --> 01:16:07,479 Speaker 28: to be able to spend on, this does look like 1634 01:16:07,520 --> 01:16:09,759 Speaker 28: it is all part of trying to make the numbers 1635 01:16:09,760 --> 01:16:12,519 Speaker 28: work and what is a difficult set of circumstances. The 1636 01:16:12,560 --> 01:16:16,960 Speaker 28: economic figures have been more challenging. Treasury is likely to 1637 01:16:17,439 --> 01:16:21,200 Speaker 28: downgrade economic expectations going forward. That means less revenue for 1638 01:16:21,240 --> 01:16:23,439 Speaker 28: the government and so that does require money to come 1639 01:16:23,439 --> 01:16:26,720 Speaker 28: from somewhere else to allow all of the big expectations 1640 01:16:26,720 --> 01:16:27,599 Speaker 28: to still be funded. 1641 01:16:27,720 --> 01:16:30,719 Speaker 2: Yes, now, what about the employment stats they're out tomorrow. 1642 01:16:30,760 --> 01:16:31,479 Speaker 2: What are you expecting. 1643 01:16:32,720 --> 01:16:35,439 Speaker 28: We do expect the unemployment will be increasing further. I 1644 01:16:35,439 --> 01:16:38,840 Speaker 28: think the broadn census is around sort of five point 1645 01:16:38,960 --> 01:16:42,160 Speaker 28: three percent. That is the highest and nearly a decade, 1646 01:16:42,800 --> 01:16:46,720 Speaker 28: and obviously I think highlights what everyone's seeing out there 1647 01:16:46,760 --> 01:16:49,559 Speaker 28: that times are still quite tough. People are struggling to 1648 01:16:49,680 --> 01:16:51,680 Speaker 28: find jobs, and we saw that with some of the 1649 01:16:51,680 --> 01:16:54,479 Speaker 28: filled jobs data out over the last week as well. 1650 01:16:54,960 --> 01:16:58,160 Speaker 28: Even those increases to the unemployment rate and similar they 1651 01:16:58,200 --> 01:17:01,080 Speaker 28: make government's life harder as well. From a financial perspective, 1652 01:17:01,479 --> 01:17:03,640 Speaker 28: the number of people on jobs, he can benefits and 1653 01:17:03,680 --> 01:17:06,840 Speaker 28: similar continues to increase, and so all of those are 1654 01:17:06,840 --> 01:17:08,920 Speaker 28: further cost that the government has to pay for. So 1655 01:17:09,080 --> 01:17:11,599 Speaker 28: we are in a very difficult time in the economy. 1656 01:17:11,600 --> 01:17:14,839 Speaker 28: We're of course being hit with the uncertainty from the tariffs. 1657 01:17:15,080 --> 01:17:17,560 Speaker 28: We're starting to see some other areas of the economy 1658 01:17:17,920 --> 01:17:22,120 Speaker 28: still show some promise. The primary sector and similar. Mortgage 1659 01:17:22,200 --> 01:17:24,599 Speaker 28: rates are falling for a number of households, but there's 1660 01:17:24,640 --> 01:17:27,719 Speaker 28: still a level of concern I think amongst households because 1661 01:17:27,800 --> 01:17:30,559 Speaker 28: the jobs market is not quite as easy, and you 1662 01:17:30,600 --> 01:17:33,120 Speaker 28: see that with consumer confidence. Despite the fact that interest 1663 01:17:33,200 --> 01:17:35,759 Speaker 28: rates are coming down in cost of living challenges should 1664 01:17:35,760 --> 01:17:39,280 Speaker 28: be easier for households, the numbers still suggest that households 1665 01:17:39,280 --> 01:17:41,840 Speaker 28: are still pretty reluctant to be too optimistic. So a 1666 01:17:41,840 --> 01:17:45,200 Speaker 28: lot of challenges out there. The government's facing fiscal challenges, 1667 01:17:45,240 --> 01:17:49,720 Speaker 28: households are still facing financial challenges, difficult, challenging conditions all round. 1668 01:17:49,920 --> 01:17:52,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, Brad, thanks very much, really appreciated. Brad Awsome, Principal 1669 01:17:52,680 --> 01:17:59,040 Speaker 2: economists at Infometrics. Okay, so, if you've been vaguely interested 1670 01:17:59,040 --> 01:18:01,240 Speaker 2: in media stories, you probably have followed the fact that 1671 01:18:01,240 --> 01:18:03,080 Speaker 2: there's been a bit of a boardroom battle going on 1672 01:18:03,120 --> 01:18:04,960 Speaker 2: at the place that I work here at Enzby. And 1673 01:18:05,000 --> 01:18:07,639 Speaker 2: the latest news is that the compromised position which appears 1674 01:18:07,680 --> 01:18:10,519 Speaker 2: to have been struck is that Stephen Joyce will become 1675 01:18:10,560 --> 01:18:13,760 Speaker 2: the chair of the board of this company. Now, to 1676 01:18:13,800 --> 01:18:17,519 Speaker 2: anyone who knows Steven Joyce's history, that's a relatively smart decision. 1677 01:18:17,520 --> 01:18:19,600 Speaker 2: I would have thought he seems like he would know 1678 01:18:19,600 --> 01:18:21,520 Speaker 2: what he was doing, or he's got some business experience. 1679 01:18:21,560 --> 01:18:24,639 Speaker 2: He's got heaps of radio experience. He set up the Edge, 1680 01:18:25,160 --> 01:18:28,240 Speaker 2: which everybody knows now, set it up back in New 1681 01:18:28,280 --> 01:18:30,240 Speaker 2: Plymouth way back in the day, and turned it into 1682 01:18:30,240 --> 01:18:32,719 Speaker 2: the success it was, and then basically turned media works 1683 01:18:32,720 --> 01:18:34,559 Speaker 2: into the success that it was. Blah blah blah. You know, 1684 01:18:34,560 --> 01:18:38,840 Speaker 2: the rest is history. Anyway, Chippy must not know that 1685 01:18:39,320 --> 01:18:41,639 Speaker 2: Chippy must think that the only thing that Stephen Joyce 1686 01:18:41,640 --> 01:18:43,160 Speaker 2: has ever done in his life is to work as 1687 01:18:43,200 --> 01:18:46,559 Speaker 2: a National Party minister. Because Chippy has concerns about this, 1688 01:18:46,640 --> 01:18:51,160 Speaker 2: Chippy says it will draw into question en Zidmey's editorial stance, 1689 01:18:51,600 --> 01:18:53,960 Speaker 2: and I think that would be very unfortunate for the 1690 01:18:54,080 --> 01:18:57,040 Speaker 2: very many credible people who work for that organization. Why 1691 01:18:57,120 --> 01:19:00,120 Speaker 2: thank you, Chippy. I do appreciate that incredible But yes, 1692 01:19:00,560 --> 01:19:02,640 Speaker 2: what a dumb thing to say. What an egg? What 1693 01:19:02,680 --> 01:19:04,280 Speaker 2: did he wake up on the wrong side? Did he 1694 01:19:04,400 --> 01:19:06,479 Speaker 2: leave his brain behind when he put a socks on 1695 01:19:06,520 --> 01:19:09,120 Speaker 2: this morning? Does he really think that the chair of 1696 01:19:09,680 --> 01:19:12,200 Speaker 2: the board of this company is going to have any 1697 01:19:12,280 --> 01:19:15,000 Speaker 2: impact on the editorial position that anyone in this company takes. 1698 01:19:15,640 --> 01:19:17,920 Speaker 2: Just to illustrate my point, right, the current board of 1699 01:19:18,000 --> 01:19:21,639 Speaker 2: the chair of the board is Barbara Chapman. I've never 1700 01:19:21,680 --> 01:19:24,719 Speaker 2: met Barbara Chapman, so I've never spoken to Barbara Chapman. 1701 01:19:24,760 --> 01:19:26,800 Speaker 2: I've never exchanged an email or a text or anything. 1702 01:19:26,800 --> 01:19:29,800 Speaker 2: There's been no communication between me and Barbara Chapman whatsoever. 1703 01:19:30,400 --> 01:19:33,559 Speaker 2: I have no idea what Barbara thinks of what I say. 1704 01:19:34,479 --> 01:19:39,040 Speaker 2: I assume I assume that she might not love it, 1705 01:19:39,560 --> 01:19:41,200 Speaker 2: judging by some comments that she's made in the me. 1706 01:19:41,320 --> 01:19:43,559 Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know what Barbara thinks. I 1707 01:19:43,560 --> 01:19:46,439 Speaker 2: don't know. So why would it change with Stephen? If 1708 01:19:46,479 --> 01:19:48,679 Speaker 2: Barbara can conduct herself like that and be a decent 1709 01:19:48,720 --> 01:19:51,200 Speaker 2: person to just leave us to it doing our own 1710 01:19:51,240 --> 01:19:53,920 Speaker 2: little weird things whatever, why wouldn't Stephen do that? 1711 01:19:54,080 --> 01:19:54,280 Speaker 16: Makes? 1712 01:19:54,360 --> 01:19:55,960 Speaker 2: What makes should be? Think that Stephen's going to change 1713 01:19:56,000 --> 01:19:58,920 Speaker 2: you anyway? I just think should be just should we 1714 01:19:59,040 --> 01:20:01,920 Speaker 2: just say some dumb things sometimes? German? It's politics, right, 1715 01:20:02,640 --> 01:20:05,640 Speaker 2: Let's be honest, he's playing politics anyway. To get to 1716 01:20:05,640 --> 01:20:07,840 Speaker 2: where I'm going with this, Duncan Greeve, who is a 1717 01:20:07,840 --> 01:20:10,599 Speaker 2: media commentator who works for the spinoff set up the spinoff, 1718 01:20:10,680 --> 01:20:12,519 Speaker 2: is going to be with us in about ten minutes 1719 01:20:12,560 --> 01:20:16,040 Speaker 2: fifteen minutes time and give us his unbiased and unvarnished 1720 01:20:16,080 --> 01:20:18,200 Speaker 2: take on whether he thinks that this is a problem 1721 01:20:18,240 --> 01:20:18,799 Speaker 2: for the company. 1722 01:20:19,000 --> 01:20:24,080 Speaker 1: Six twenty three The Rural Report with MSD Animal Health, 1723 01:20:24,160 --> 01:20:27,600 Speaker 1: home of the new All Flex rapid evotags. 1724 01:20:27,400 --> 01:20:29,080 Speaker 2: Twenty six pass six and with me right now is 1725 01:20:29,160 --> 01:20:31,920 Speaker 2: Jamie McKay, Host of the Country. Hey, Jamie, good I 1726 01:20:32,000 --> 01:20:35,080 Speaker 2: heav what are we picking for the GDT this evening. 1727 01:20:35,439 --> 01:20:37,920 Speaker 17: While I've gone to my go to guy, Mike McIntyre, 1728 01:20:38,080 --> 01:20:40,920 Speaker 17: jard another two to three percent. This is a really 1729 01:20:40,960 --> 01:20:43,439 Speaker 17: good result. To hell with Trump's tariffs, it doesn't seem 1730 01:20:43,520 --> 01:20:47,320 Speaker 17: to be stopping the rampant dairy market. Admittedly, we're very 1731 01:20:47,560 --> 01:20:50,440 Speaker 17: near the end of our season. This is the penultimate 1732 01:20:50,479 --> 01:20:54,439 Speaker 17: GDT auction. The season will end, of course on May 1733 01:20:54,560 --> 01:20:57,479 Speaker 17: thirty one. So he's picking two to three percent. That 1734 01:20:57,640 --> 01:21:00,360 Speaker 17: follows two rises in April, after a we drop or 1735 01:21:00,360 --> 01:21:03,479 Speaker 17: a bit of a slump, slight slump in March. The 1736 01:21:03,520 --> 01:21:06,120 Speaker 17: interesting thing is if the spot rate was set on 1737 01:21:06,160 --> 01:21:09,800 Speaker 17: today's price, is were they're getting eleven dollars per kilogram 1738 01:21:09,800 --> 01:21:13,120 Speaker 17: of milk solids and that's with a apparently with a dollar, 1739 01:21:13,160 --> 01:21:15,519 Speaker 17: which is just nudging sixty US cents. 1740 01:21:15,520 --> 01:21:16,120 Speaker 7: So that's great. 1741 01:21:16,120 --> 01:21:17,840 Speaker 17: Of course, it won't be that because it evens out 1742 01:21:17,880 --> 01:21:20,519 Speaker 17: over the whole season. But happy days, as I say, 1743 01:21:20,600 --> 01:21:21,559 Speaker 17: for the dairy industry. 1744 01:21:21,880 --> 01:21:24,800 Speaker 2: Hey, that twenty one percent drop in the number of 1745 01:21:24,840 --> 01:21:26,760 Speaker 2: sheep over the last ten years. Is that worry you? 1746 01:21:27,880 --> 01:21:30,040 Speaker 17: Yeah, it does because you need critical mass in the 1747 01:21:30,080 --> 01:21:33,000 Speaker 17: industry and the sheep meat industry walls look and I 1748 01:21:33,040 --> 01:21:34,880 Speaker 17: get a bit of stick on my show for being 1749 01:21:35,360 --> 01:21:38,320 Speaker 17: pessimistic about wall. But I am really worried about the 1750 01:21:38,360 --> 01:21:41,160 Speaker 17: prospects for strong cross bread wall. But the prospects for 1751 01:21:41,280 --> 01:21:44,839 Speaker 17: lamb especially is a really good it's a niche product, 1752 01:21:44,840 --> 01:21:46,960 Speaker 17: it's a really good product. There's a shortage of it. 1753 01:21:47,200 --> 01:21:49,479 Speaker 17: But the trouble is, you know in the nineteen eighties 1754 01:21:49,560 --> 01:21:51,880 Speaker 17: here that we had seventy million sheep. We're down to 1755 01:21:52,360 --> 01:21:56,719 Speaker 17: twenty three million sheep. Now we're just producing less and less, 1756 01:21:56,720 --> 01:22:00,360 Speaker 17: even though the production be head's gone up significantly significently 1757 01:22:00,439 --> 01:22:03,479 Speaker 17: in those forty odd years. So look, the worry is 1758 01:22:03,560 --> 01:22:06,400 Speaker 17: that we haven't got enough critical mass to keep our 1759 01:22:06,800 --> 01:22:11,360 Speaker 17: processing plants open or certainly open and efficient. So you know, 1760 01:22:11,520 --> 01:22:15,400 Speaker 17: down down to twenty three point six million sheep. And 1761 01:22:15,439 --> 01:22:17,599 Speaker 17: I know these numbers have been bandied about, but they're 1762 01:22:17,600 --> 01:22:20,599 Speaker 17: worth repeating. Dairy cattle so much for the dairy boom. 1763 01:22:20,640 --> 01:22:23,880 Speaker 17: We're down thirteen percent since the dairy boom, nearly a million, 1764 01:22:24,120 --> 01:22:26,360 Speaker 17: down to five point eight with them. It'll be interesting 1765 01:22:26,400 --> 01:22:29,080 Speaker 17: to see whether that stays there if the government gets 1766 01:22:29,120 --> 01:22:33,040 Speaker 17: back into or allows dairy conversions. The interesting one is 1767 01:22:33,080 --> 01:22:36,320 Speaker 17: beef cattle have done the best, very good returns for 1768 01:22:36,360 --> 01:22:38,920 Speaker 17: beef at the moment those numbers are pretty similar to 1769 01:22:38,960 --> 01:22:41,040 Speaker 17: what they were a decade ago. And if you're a 1770 01:22:41,080 --> 01:22:43,800 Speaker 17: deer farmer, chances are here that you've only got three 1771 01:22:43,880 --> 01:22:45,880 Speaker 17: quarters of the stock you used to have because they're 1772 01:22:45,880 --> 01:22:47,040 Speaker 17: down twenty six percent. 1773 01:22:47,320 --> 01:22:49,080 Speaker 2: Hey, thanks very much, Jamie go well at the moment. 1774 01:22:49,160 --> 01:22:49,320 Speaker 21: Mate. 1775 01:22:49,320 --> 01:22:52,439 Speaker 2: That's Jamie McKay, Host of the Country, right, duncan grieve 1776 01:22:52,600 --> 01:22:55,040 Speaker 2: on this Business of the media next, and then we're 1777 01:22:55,080 --> 01:22:57,800 Speaker 2: off to end of Brady in the UK.

It certainly answers that where 1786 01:23:48,560 --> 01:23:50,920 Speaker 2: are they getting the money from? Question, Tony you bang 1787 01:23:50,960 --> 01:23:54,200 Speaker 2: on twenty four away from seven Now looks like Stephen Joyce, 1788 01:23:54,280 --> 01:23:56,840 Speaker 2: the former National Party minister, is set to be the 1789 01:23:56,880 --> 01:23:58,960 Speaker 2: new chair of NZB, which is the company that owns 1790 01:23:59,000 --> 01:24:02,639 Speaker 2: news Talk zb's been nominated as a compromise to settle 1791 01:24:02,680 --> 01:24:05,719 Speaker 2: a month's long boardroom stout that's been going on.

Now, Hey, Duncan, Heather, does 1794 01:24:11,720 --> 01:24:12,880 Speaker 2: it look too like a done deal? 1795 01:24:14,680 --> 01:24:17,840 Speaker 29: I would never say this saga as long as it's 1796 01:24:17,880 --> 01:24:19,840 Speaker 29: run as a dune deal. But it looks like a 1797 01:24:19,920 --> 01:24:23,360 Speaker 29: really smart, adroit bit of maneuvering that should be a 1798 01:24:23,400 --> 01:24:28,040 Speaker 29: done deal. Why Well, because I guess as a as 1799 01:24:28,080 --> 01:24:31,280 Speaker 29: a compromise candidate, it would be very hard for the 1800 01:24:31,320 --> 01:24:35,760 Speaker 29: insurgents Grennan and Barker, and that those kind of shareholders 1801 01:24:35,760 --> 01:24:40,960 Speaker 29: who've been grumpy about the you know, the sort of 1802 01:24:41,680 --> 01:24:46,640 Speaker 29: both the governments and particularly the journalism of Entented Me 1803 01:24:46,880 --> 01:24:49,519 Speaker 29: to kind of have an issue with Joyce given his 1804 01:24:49,600 --> 01:24:55,320 Speaker 29: background both politically but also in media, but also he's 1805 01:24:55,360 --> 01:25:01,640 Speaker 29: such a known quantity to New Zealand his role in 1806 01:25:02,080 --> 01:25:05,920 Speaker 29: the previous national government, which is a much more popular 1807 01:25:05,920 --> 01:25:09,600 Speaker 29: one than the current one. And so you know, it 1808 01:25:09,720 --> 01:25:11,720 Speaker 29: just looks like if you're going to pick anyone out 1809 01:25:11,760 --> 01:25:14,040 Speaker 29: of this country to kind of tie a bow on 1810 01:25:14,160 --> 01:25:16,639 Speaker 29: this thing away that maybe it's not what everyone wanted, 1811 01:25:16,720 --> 01:25:20,200 Speaker 29: but everyone can live with it. Joyce would be your guy. 1812 01:25:20,160 --> 01:25:22,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, And you could do worse, couldn't you, Because I mean, 1813 01:25:22,320 --> 01:25:24,400 Speaker 2: the man knows radio through and. 1814 01:25:24,320 --> 01:25:27,120 Speaker 4: Through, he really does. 1815 01:25:27,439 --> 01:25:31,000 Speaker 29: I know, he was basically the architect of what became 1816 01:25:31,720 --> 01:25:34,680 Speaker 29: Media Works and did that from the ground up, so 1817 01:25:35,320 --> 01:25:40,599 Speaker 29: really really sharp visionary, really media mind. But also I 1818 01:25:40,600 --> 01:25:44,040 Speaker 29: think because he was part of the sort of kitchen 1819 01:25:44,120 --> 01:25:49,800 Speaker 29: cabinet of that government for so long, understands the relationship 1820 01:25:49,840 --> 01:25:53,040 Speaker 29: between politics and media, which are so central to this dispute, 1821 01:25:53,680 --> 01:25:55,960 Speaker 29: and where you have to hold and where you. 1822 01:25:55,920 --> 01:25:56,439 Speaker 4: Have to give. 1823 01:25:56,600 --> 01:25:58,560 Speaker 29: You know, I think there's a sort of an underlying 1824 01:25:58,840 --> 01:26:03,240 Speaker 29: pragmatism to the government that that should be you know, 1825 01:26:03,479 --> 01:26:06,200 Speaker 29: acceptable to everyone. Because the big fear that people had 1826 01:26:06,320 --> 01:26:09,880 Speaker 29: was that that Grennan's people were going to kind of 1827 01:26:09,880 --> 01:26:13,120 Speaker 29: push it beyond what you know, has to be a 1828 01:26:13,160 --> 01:26:16,479 Speaker 29: broad mainstream brand. They were going to push it beyond 1829 01:26:16,560 --> 01:26:17,840 Speaker 29: what was acceptable to that. 1830 01:26:18,600 --> 01:26:21,519 Speaker 2: So Chris Hopkins has said today it will draw into 1831 01:26:21,600 --> 01:26:25,559 Speaker 2: question their editorial stance if Stephen Joyce was to become 1832 01:26:25,560 --> 01:26:26,599 Speaker 2: the chair. Do you think it will? 1833 01:26:27,960 --> 01:26:30,759 Speaker 29: I mean, I think that's a bit of a fastical comment. 1834 01:26:30,960 --> 01:26:37,840 Speaker 29: Just given the sort of history of political appointees to boards, 1835 01:26:39,920 --> 01:26:43,960 Speaker 29: you know all. You know, obviously media is a specific thing, 1836 01:26:44,120 --> 01:26:49,360 Speaker 29: but but you know, there there is so much of 1837 01:26:49,760 --> 01:26:52,200 Speaker 29: you know, whether it's government boards or the sort of 1838 01:26:52,520 --> 01:26:56,320 Speaker 29: post politics life of politicians where there are political elements 1839 01:26:56,840 --> 01:27:01,479 Speaker 29: that they have to navigate some more complex scenarios than this. 1840 01:27:01,760 --> 01:27:07,240 Speaker 29: So you know, it doesn't seem like a particularly plausible statement. 1841 01:27:07,320 --> 01:27:09,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think so either. Hey, Duncan, it's good 1842 01:27:09,040 --> 01:27:10,920 Speaker 2: to talk to you. I really appreciated. As always. That's 1843 01:27:10,960 --> 01:27:13,480 Speaker 2: Dunk and Grieve, the spinoff founder and also media commentator. 1844 01:27:14,040 --> 01:27:17,200 Speaker 2: I'm glad he made the point just then about politicians 1845 01:27:17,200 --> 01:27:20,320 Speaker 2: on boards because the list of even just labor ministers. 1846 01:27:20,360 --> 01:27:22,000 Speaker 2: And I'm not saying I'm not telling you this because 1847 01:27:22,000 --> 01:27:24,400 Speaker 2: I've got a problem with it. I'm just calling into question. 1848 01:27:24,439 --> 01:27:26,479 Speaker 2: I'm just wanting to point out the hypocrisy of what 1849 01:27:26,960 --> 01:27:29,920 Speaker 2: Chris Hopkins has said. The number of labor ministers who've 1850 01:27:29,920 --> 01:27:33,360 Speaker 2: gone on to boards is you know, like, I don't 1851 01:27:33,400 --> 01:27:35,400 Speaker 2: even want to start on the list, because if I 1852 01:27:35,439 --> 01:27:37,599 Speaker 2: started on the list and it was comprehensive, we'd still 1853 01:27:37,640 --> 01:27:40,040 Speaker 2: be here. It's would still be here at six am 1854 01:27:40,479 --> 01:27:43,760 Speaker 2: when when Mike Caster Starters show. Because there's so many 1855 01:27:43,760 --> 01:27:46,040 Speaker 2: politicians who just who go on to boards. I'll just 1856 01:27:46,040 --> 01:27:49,320 Speaker 2: give you an example, right, Steve Mahari, Chair of far Mac, 1857 01:27:49,720 --> 01:27:53,519 Speaker 2: Steve Mahari, Chair of ACC, Ruth Dyson on Fire and 1858 01:27:53,600 --> 01:27:56,960 Speaker 2: Emergency News New Zealand, Ruth Dyson on the National Hazards 1859 01:27:56,960 --> 01:28:00,439 Speaker 2: Commission Board, Marion Hobbs on Heritage New zealandh blah blah 1860 01:28:00,439 --> 01:28:02,439 Speaker 2: blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. Could go 1861 01:28:02,479 --> 01:28:04,479 Speaker 2: on forever. Right, it's not unusual at all to be 1862 01:28:04,520 --> 01:28:06,920 Speaker 2: I think just kind of. I think he's trying to 1863 01:28:06,920 --> 01:28:08,840 Speaker 2: make something out of it. He's just trying to get 1864 01:28:08,840 --> 01:28:11,400 Speaker 2: into this whole politicizing the media like bias and bias 1865 01:28:11,439 --> 01:28:12,320 Speaker 2: and all that kind of stuff. 1866 01:28:12,360 --> 01:28:12,519 Speaker 16: Thing. 1867 01:28:12,680 --> 01:28:14,680 Speaker 2: I don't think it all. It won't Nobody in their 1868 01:28:14,760 --> 01:28:17,000 Speaker 2: right mind is going to believe it. Nineteen Away from seven. 1869 01:28:17,479 --> 01:28:18,639 Speaker 1: Heather duper Cla. 1870 01:28:18,920 --> 01:28:20,880 Speaker 2: I wish I knew this when we spoke to the 1871 01:28:20,880 --> 01:28:23,960 Speaker 2: Westpac CEO on the show yesterday, because I would have 1872 01:28:23,960 --> 01:28:26,639 Speaker 2: asked her about this because I was reading today she's 1873 01:28:26,640 --> 01:28:28,880 Speaker 2: actually done a good deed. So I don't know if 1874 01:28:28,880 --> 01:28:30,720 Speaker 2: you've been following this. But there was the story of 1875 01:28:30,720 --> 01:28:34,360 Speaker 2: the Auckland pensioner right who transferred I think it was 1876 01:28:34,400 --> 01:28:36,400 Speaker 2: like one hundred and fifty eight thousand dollars or something. 1877 01:28:36,479 --> 01:28:39,200 Speaker 2: It was a substantial amount of money. He transferred from 1878 01:28:39,240 --> 01:28:42,080 Speaker 2: his bank account Barclays Bank in the UK to his 1879 01:28:42,160 --> 01:28:45,880 Speaker 2: bank account in Auckland Westpac. But he was using a 1880 01:28:46,040 --> 01:28:48,960 Speaker 2: sticky keyboard and the number four it was an old 1881 01:28:49,040 --> 01:28:51,800 Speaker 2: keyboard and the number four was sticky, and so he 1882 01:28:51,840 --> 01:28:54,960 Speaker 2: didn't enter his his account details properly, must have left 1883 01:28:55,000 --> 01:28:57,120 Speaker 2: the four off, and as a result, his money did 1884 01:28:57,160 --> 01:28:59,040 Speaker 2: not actually go into his bank account at all. It 1885 01:28:59,080 --> 01:29:02,800 Speaker 2: went into the bank account of an Auckland beneficiary who 1886 01:29:02,880 --> 01:29:06,040 Speaker 2: then looked at it and went whoo party tan and 1887 01:29:06,160 --> 01:29:08,599 Speaker 2: brought herself a couple of cars and transferred some money 1888 01:29:08,600 --> 01:29:10,800 Speaker 2: to so and so in Blilah, and it was gone right, 1889 01:29:10,840 --> 01:29:14,160 Speaker 2: And this poor chap ended up in a battle for 1890 01:29:14,200 --> 01:29:16,920 Speaker 2: fifteen months to try to get this money back, and 1891 01:29:16,960 --> 01:29:19,439 Speaker 2: he was going absolutely nowhere, there, nowhere with it. And 1892 01:29:19,439 --> 01:29:23,040 Speaker 2: then last week, all of a sudden, bingo, Barclays Bank 1893 01:29:23,080 --> 01:29:25,080 Speaker 2: paid the money to him, plus five hundred pounds in 1894 01:29:25,120 --> 01:29:28,760 Speaker 2: compo for honestly Barclays five hundred bucks in compo you 1895 01:29:28,960 --> 01:29:31,920 Speaker 2: tight wads. But anyway, it turns out that the reason 1896 01:29:31,920 --> 01:29:34,800 Speaker 2: that that happened is because Katherine McGrath, the CEO of 1897 01:29:34,840 --> 01:29:37,680 Speaker 2: Wes Westpac Bank, who had nothing to do with this 1898 01:29:37,840 --> 01:29:40,080 Speaker 2: other than being the receiving bank. Right, it's not their 1899 01:29:40,080 --> 01:29:43,720 Speaker 2: problem that this happened. She used to work for Barclays, 1900 01:29:44,040 --> 01:29:45,960 Speaker 2: so when she heard what happened, she obviously had some 1901 01:29:46,000 --> 01:29:48,400 Speaker 2: people there that she knew or whatever, so she got 1902 01:29:48,439 --> 01:29:51,559 Speaker 2: in contact with him and bingo, he got his money back. 1903 01:29:51,600 --> 01:29:53,479 Speaker 2: And how good is that? In Westpac deserves we give 1904 01:29:53,479 --> 01:29:54,760 Speaker 2: a lot of I say this all the time. We 1905 01:29:54,760 --> 01:29:56,599 Speaker 2: get a lot of grief to the banks. And I 1906 01:29:56,680 --> 01:29:58,400 Speaker 2: like giving grief to the banks because I want them 1907 01:29:58,439 --> 01:30:00,160 Speaker 2: to I want to keep them on their toes, keep 1908 01:30:00,160 --> 01:30:01,920 Speaker 2: them on their toes. But when they do something good, 1909 01:30:01,920 --> 01:30:04,559 Speaker 2: they also deserve credit for it. And speaking of given credit, 1910 01:30:04,600 --> 01:30:07,400 Speaker 2: can I just give a shout out to Harper Davis 1911 01:30:08,160 --> 01:30:12,080 Speaker 2: of St. Mark's Catholic School, who was nine years old 1912 01:30:12,840 --> 01:30:15,200 Speaker 2: and was the one yesterday to alert everybody to the 1913 01:30:15,200 --> 01:30:17,200 Speaker 2: fire at the McDonald's playground. She was waiting there for 1914 01:30:17,200 --> 01:30:19,960 Speaker 2: her mum and she noticed a small amount of smoke 1915 01:30:20,040 --> 01:30:22,120 Speaker 2: was hurting her eyes, and she said she she felt 1916 01:30:22,120 --> 01:30:24,160 Speaker 2: like she couldn't breathe properly, so she she peeked over, 1917 01:30:24,200 --> 01:30:26,360 Speaker 2: had a looking whip. There's a fire in the playground, 1918 01:30:26,640 --> 01:30:29,439 Speaker 2: so she ran outside, went and told the staff. Her 1919 01:30:29,520 --> 01:30:31,920 Speaker 2: mum arrived one minute after she told the stuff, and 1920 01:30:31,960 --> 01:30:34,439 Speaker 2: the entire playground was already on fire. So shout out 1921 01:30:34,479 --> 01:30:37,120 Speaker 2: to shout out to Harper for doing a good deed. 1922 01:30:37,120 --> 01:30:39,240 Speaker 2: They're more of that police seventeen away from seven. 1923 01:30:39,120 --> 01:30:43,120 Speaker 1: Approaching the numbers and getting the results.

But I don't like 1933 01:31:07,760 --> 01:31:13,080 Speaker 2: the way that you pronounced transplant, transfer and transaction. And 1934 01:31:13,120 --> 01:31:14,600 Speaker 2: you have to say it out loud to see the 1935 01:31:14,640 --> 01:31:21,479 Speaker 2: inconsistency of my pronunciation. There, transfer transplant, transport, transaction. Now 1936 01:31:21,520 --> 01:31:23,840 Speaker 2: I was I read that out to the German before 1937 01:31:24,000 --> 01:31:28,160 Speaker 2: and and ads obviously, and she said to me there 1938 01:31:28,240 --> 01:31:32,400 Speaker 2: is a difference between data and data they mean different things. 1939 01:31:32,920 --> 01:31:35,160 Speaker 2: And I am surprised by this. And we have sent 1940 01:31:35,200 --> 01:31:37,320 Speaker 2: the German away to figure out what on earth the differences, 1941 01:31:37,400 --> 01:31:39,800 Speaker 2: if this difference even exists. So stay tuned. She will 1942 01:31:39,840 --> 01:31:42,200 Speaker 2: be back, very diligent because it's German to be back 1943 01:31:42,200 --> 01:31:44,040 Speaker 2: to us. And just oh, she just put her finger 1944 01:31:44,120 --> 01:31:47,240 Speaker 2: up of the air and said one minute please and walk. 1945 01:31:47,360 --> 01:31:48,960 Speaker 9: I think she's going to go consult an expert. 1946 01:31:49,120 --> 01:31:50,760 Speaker 2: Oh, I thought she's walking to the printer where I 1947 01:31:50,840 --> 01:31:51,280 Speaker 2: just wanted. 1948 01:31:51,080 --> 01:31:52,920 Speaker 9: To leaving the building. 1949 01:31:53,080 --> 01:31:54,840 Speaker 2: She's had a guts full of a day. So what's 1950 01:31:54,880 --> 01:31:57,320 Speaker 2: this nonsense with English people who constantly muck up their 1951 01:31:57,360 --> 01:31:59,280 Speaker 2: own language. Anyway, I just want to point out our 1952 01:31:59,280 --> 01:32:01,240 Speaker 2: printers do work, so if the government would like to 1953 01:32:01,280 --> 01:32:02,880 Speaker 2: come and use them from detection. 1954 01:32:02,640 --> 01:32:05,160 Speaker 9: From your transport pronunciation as well were very good. 1955 01:32:05,040 --> 01:32:07,559 Speaker 2: Thanks very much.

What are these announcements? 1962 01:32:25,200 --> 01:32:28,679 Speaker 7: So he needs to do something to tackle the rampant 1963 01:32:28,720 --> 01:32:31,840 Speaker 7: popularity of Nigel Farage. So a couple of things in 1964 01:32:31,880 --> 01:32:34,160 Speaker 7: the papers today which are obviously going to happen. I 1965 01:32:34,160 --> 01:32:36,640 Speaker 7: think they're just kind of sailing it out today to 1966 01:32:36,680 --> 01:32:40,040 Speaker 7: see if it sinks or swims. So, first of all, 1967 01:32:40,280 --> 01:32:43,679 Speaker 7: student visas from certain countries. The government has been looking 1968 01:32:43,720 --> 01:32:47,960 Speaker 7: at all the data or data on this and basically 1969 01:32:48,640 --> 01:32:53,600 Speaker 7: three countries are of concern with regard to student visas Pakistan, 1970 01:32:53,840 --> 01:32:58,040 Speaker 7: Sri Lanka and Nigeria. They're seeing a very serious pattern 1971 01:32:58,080 --> 01:33:00,679 Speaker 7: here of young people wanting to come to the UK 1972 01:33:00,920 --> 01:33:05,680 Speaker 7: getting student visas and then after a short period claiming asylum, 1973 01:33:05,760 --> 01:33:08,759 Speaker 7: trying to claim asylum. And the end result is this 1974 01:33:08,920 --> 01:33:12,280 Speaker 7: is a very very big number sixteen million dollars a 1975 01:33:12,360 --> 01:33:15,439 Speaker 7: day being spent every day by the UK government on 1976 01:33:15,920 --> 01:33:20,120 Speaker 7: accommodation for people who are claiming asylum. Sixteen million dollars 1977 01:33:20,120 --> 01:33:21,960 Speaker 7: a day. So one thing they're going to do is 1978 01:33:22,000 --> 01:33:25,360 Speaker 7: get tough on those three countries and their student visas. 1979 01:33:25,680 --> 01:33:28,759 Speaker 7: And then secondly the winter fuel payments about six hundred 1980 01:33:28,800 --> 01:33:33,639 Speaker 7: dollars Starmer basically blitz that over winter, no more winter 1981 01:33:33,680 --> 01:33:36,559 Speaker 7: fuel payments for pensioners, regardless of how rich or poor 1982 01:33:36,600 --> 01:33:38,840 Speaker 7: you are. They're going to perhaps roll. 1983 01:33:38,760 --> 01:33:39,240 Speaker 4: Back on that. 1984 01:33:39,439 --> 01:33:42,880 Speaker 2: Ah, that's embarrassing. Haven't they just like a list of 1985 01:33:42,960 --> 01:33:45,040 Speaker 2: ministers go out and defend this decision? 1986 01:33:46,120 --> 01:33:48,519 Speaker 7: Yes, yeah, exactly. And they were given no choice. And 1987 01:33:48,560 --> 01:33:51,080 Speaker 7: Starmer's mantra was that there's no money in the kitty. 1988 01:33:51,240 --> 01:33:56,280 Speaker 7: Blamed the Conservatives fourteen years of ruin. So I think 1989 01:33:56,320 --> 01:33:58,040 Speaker 7: what they're going to do is roll back on it, 1990 01:33:58,080 --> 01:34:00,719 Speaker 7: perhaps put a threshold in place so that the poorest 1991 01:34:00,720 --> 01:34:05,120 Speaker 7: pensioners will get it again next winter. Because Forage is 1992 01:34:05,200 --> 01:34:07,880 Speaker 7: making gangs left, right and center, and as much as 1993 01:34:07,880 --> 01:34:10,160 Speaker 7: people have laughed, he is saying I will be prime 1994 01:34:10,160 --> 01:34:12,479 Speaker 7: minister in four years time. I've had people come up 1995 01:34:12,520 --> 01:34:14,720 Speaker 7: to me over the weekend saying, what do you think 1996 01:34:14,800 --> 01:34:17,880 Speaker 7: Farage will be like as prime minister? Well, it's it's 1997 01:34:17,920 --> 01:34:18,639 Speaker 7: cutting through. 1998 01:34:18,840 --> 01:34:21,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's very interesting. How did you see Prince Louis 1999 01:34:21,160 --> 01:34:22,760 Speaker 2: at the ve Day celebrations. 2000 01:34:23,760 --> 01:34:27,439 Speaker 7: I love the little hair flick mocking his older brother George. 2001 01:34:27,520 --> 01:34:28,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, do you know what? 2002 01:34:28,880 --> 01:34:32,519 Speaker 7: He's a character? It's been positive. I think the last 2003 01:34:32,560 --> 01:34:34,880 Speaker 7: twenty four hours for the Royal family to not be 2004 01:34:35,120 --> 01:34:39,840 Speaker 7: listening to whatever Harry's latest wine or winges. Harry dominated 2005 01:34:39,840 --> 01:34:42,160 Speaker 7: the news agenda all weekend, so I think it was 2006 01:34:42,560 --> 01:34:45,080 Speaker 7: best foot forward for the Royals. Yesterday we saw the 2007 01:34:45,120 --> 01:34:48,639 Speaker 7: fly past. I thought it was a nice touch, putting 2008 01:34:48,640 --> 01:34:51,720 Speaker 7: the veterans, the survivors of World War Two, front and 2009 01:34:51,840 --> 01:34:55,599 Speaker 7: center of everything, and Royal's mingling in with them, Starmer 2010 01:34:55,640 --> 01:34:58,479 Speaker 7: being there at Cooper's Home Secretary. I thought it was 2011 01:34:58,520 --> 01:34:59,519 Speaker 7: a successful day. 2012 01:35:00,080 --> 01:35:02,280 Speaker 2: Now what happened with David Bickham's patty right, It got 2013 01:35:02,280 --> 01:35:04,240 Speaker 2: stopped at four in the morning, but I thought it 2014 01:35:04,280 --> 01:35:06,000 Speaker 2: was in a part of London where there are bars, 2015 01:35:06,000 --> 01:35:08,200 Speaker 2: and so that shouldn't be a surprise or am I wrong? 2016 01:35:09,120 --> 01:35:12,599 Speaker 7: Well, people still live in Kensington and people have work 2017 01:35:12,680 --> 01:35:15,479 Speaker 7: to do, and yes, it was wonderful for David Beckham 2018 01:35:15,560 --> 01:35:17,960 Speaker 7: to turn fifty and have Tom Cruise there and Gordon 2019 01:35:18,080 --> 01:35:21,719 Speaker 7: Ramsey and Guy Ritchie the movie director and Manchester United 2020 01:35:21,760 --> 01:35:25,959 Speaker 7: players and everyone partying in a Mitchell and Dard restaurant. However, 2021 01:35:26,479 --> 01:35:29,000 Speaker 7: the noise was still going on pushing four am in 2022 01:35:29,040 --> 01:35:32,360 Speaker 7: the morning, so local residents rang the council. Council officers 2023 01:35:32,400 --> 01:35:35,000 Speaker 7: came out, the music was switched off and the party ended. 2024 01:35:35,080 --> 01:35:37,200 Speaker 7: So not a great look. And I have to say 2025 01:35:37,240 --> 01:35:40,600 Speaker 7: the other issue in the Beckham household, the eldest son, Brooklyn, 2026 01:35:40,840 --> 01:35:43,120 Speaker 7: seems to have cut them all adrift. He is not 2027 01:35:43,200 --> 01:35:46,120 Speaker 7: at any of the functions, not at any of the parties, 2028 01:35:46,160 --> 01:35:48,200 Speaker 7: and not in any of the photos. So you wonder 2029 01:35:48,240 --> 01:35:50,040 Speaker 7: what's going on there with him and his wife. 2030 01:35:50,280 --> 01:35:53,080 Speaker 2: I noticed that thank you, Inda, I love you, thank 2031 01:35:53,120 --> 01:35:55,439 Speaker 2: you just because you love me. So I just they 2032 01:35:55,520 --> 01:35:57,479 Speaker 2: got weird, didn't it. I don't know if do you 2033 01:35:57,479 --> 01:35:58,920 Speaker 2: say to other people that you love them? 2034 01:35:59,400 --> 01:35:59,760 Speaker 3: Do you say? 2035 01:36:00,520 --> 01:36:05,080 Speaker 2: I just did, though, didn't I? Anyway, my friends, just 2036 01:36:05,120 --> 01:36:07,760 Speaker 2: to make this less weird for me and Ninda and 2037 01:36:07,800 --> 01:36:10,880 Speaker 2: everybody right now, my friends and I do say to 2038 01:36:10,920 --> 01:36:13,280 Speaker 2: each other that we love each other because there's not 2039 01:36:13,479 --> 01:36:15,240 Speaker 2: enough love in the world, and so I say it. 2040 01:36:15,280 --> 01:36:17,240 Speaker 2: I say it. I say it to my son so 2041 01:36:17,400 --> 01:36:20,320 Speaker 2: much he doesn't listen to it anymore, and I say 2042 01:36:20,320 --> 01:36:22,200 Speaker 2: it to my friends, and now I say it to Endo. 2043 01:36:22,240 --> 01:36:24,439 Speaker 2: Two away from seven. 2044 01:36:26,360 --> 01:36:29,840 Speaker 1: It's the Heather Tipsy Allen Drive Full Show podcast on 2045 01:36:30,040 --> 01:36:32,520 Speaker 1: iHeartRadio powered by newstalk. 2046 01:36:32,200 --> 01:36:37,479 Speaker 2: Zebbi Okay Data Data so what I was saying before. 2047 01:36:37,760 --> 01:36:40,559 Speaker 2: We've double checked this with Scarlett, who is like our 2048 01:36:40,600 --> 01:36:42,880 Speaker 2: pronunciation Nazi. You have to have one of those people 2049 01:36:42,920 --> 01:36:47,200 Speaker 2: when you're working in broadcasting. And Scarlett has confirmed that 2050 01:36:47,479 --> 01:36:50,320 Speaker 2: my thinking was in fact correct, but the German was wrong, 2051 01:36:50,320 --> 01:36:52,080 Speaker 2: but we're going to get to that anyway. So my 2052 01:36:52,200 --> 01:36:59,960 Speaker 2: thinking was correct. That Americans say transport and britsay transport, 2053 01:37:00,400 --> 01:37:01,960 Speaker 2: and you would think that the same would be the 2054 01:37:02,000 --> 01:37:05,759 Speaker 2: same for data and data, but it's not. It's the reverse. 2055 01:37:05,840 --> 01:37:10,680 Speaker 2: It's really weird. Americans will say transport, transfer, trans tr 2056 01:37:10,840 --> 01:37:14,400 Speaker 2: tran whatever, and then when it comes to data, they 2057 01:37:14,400 --> 01:37:17,360 Speaker 2: go on data. I don't know why, but they have 2058 01:37:17,520 --> 01:37:19,680 Speaker 2: just flipped just to mess with the Brits. I think 2059 01:37:19,720 --> 01:37:22,840 Speaker 2: they've flipped everything around, whereas actually the correct pronunciation is data, 2060 01:37:23,360 --> 01:37:27,919 Speaker 2: so you should say, you should say transport transfer whatever, 2061 01:37:28,200 --> 01:37:30,280 Speaker 2: and then you should say data. And what the German 2062 01:37:30,400 --> 01:37:33,280 Speaker 2: was thinking was the thing that's tripped her up lately 2063 01:37:33,840 --> 01:37:36,080 Speaker 2: as plurals, not because she's got a problem with English. 2064 01:37:36,120 --> 01:37:38,080 Speaker 2: To her English is probably better than most of our English, 2065 01:37:38,160 --> 01:37:41,559 Speaker 2: but she's realized that data is in fact plural and 2066 01:37:41,920 --> 01:37:44,320 Speaker 2: the singular of data. You don't go around saying I 2067 01:37:44,360 --> 01:37:46,840 Speaker 2: looked at the data and it is correct. You say, 2068 01:37:46,920 --> 01:37:50,320 Speaker 2: I looked at the data and they are correct, because 2069 01:37:50,360 --> 01:37:53,360 Speaker 2: if you're talking about the one data you say datim, 2070 01:37:53,720 --> 01:37:55,760 Speaker 2: it's a datum. I looked at the datum and it 2071 01:37:55,880 --> 01:37:59,400 Speaker 2: is correct, and it is the same as stadium datum 2072 01:37:59,479 --> 01:38:04,599 Speaker 2: stadium plural of stadium stadia. You're welcome. This is all Latin, 2073 01:38:04,720 --> 01:38:05,280 Speaker 2: isn't it. 2074 01:38:05,280 --> 01:38:07,640 Speaker 9: And I'm still going to keep saying stadiums. 2075 01:38:08,320 --> 01:38:08,599 Speaker 3: I might. 2076 01:38:08,640 --> 01:38:10,120 Speaker 9: I might stick with data as well. 2077 01:38:10,160 --> 01:38:12,200 Speaker 2: And is it really that hard to say stadia? 2078 01:38:12,960 --> 01:38:14,840 Speaker 9: I mean, and I always get it. 2079 01:38:14,840 --> 01:38:16,840 Speaker 30: I always get annoyed Americans when they do this as well, 2080 01:38:16,840 --> 01:38:17,839 Speaker 30: so I'd be a big hypocrite. 2081 01:38:17,880 --> 01:38:19,960 Speaker 9: So all right, Stadia, it is Stadia data. 2082 01:38:20,080 --> 01:38:21,760 Speaker 2: The daytum thing is going to take a little while. 2083 01:38:21,840 --> 01:38:23,519 Speaker 9: Well, the harp is going to be data that the 2084 01:38:23,600 --> 01:38:26,479 Speaker 9: data they show. That's how that seems very weird. That's 2085 01:38:26,520 --> 01:38:27,240 Speaker 9: going to be a struggle. 2086 01:38:27,280 --> 01:38:28,040 Speaker 2: Should we try it? 2087 01:38:28,080 --> 01:38:28,840 Speaker 3: Should we give it a. 2088 01:38:28,760 --> 01:38:29,639 Speaker 2: Home on the on the show? 2089 01:38:30,600 --> 01:38:32,760 Speaker 9: Enough? This is going to be official style it is. 2090 01:38:33,000 --> 01:38:36,439 Speaker 30: If you start writing a script with the data it was, 2091 01:38:36,560 --> 01:38:37,400 Speaker 30: then you you pull me. 2092 01:38:37,439 --> 01:38:39,120 Speaker 2: Up on it style guide for the rest. 2093 01:38:39,479 --> 01:38:41,120 Speaker 9: Shaking your head, Laura, what's the problem with this. 2094 01:38:41,640 --> 01:38:44,599 Speaker 2: Humans love things to be correct most of the time, 2095 01:38:44,760 --> 01:38:46,600 Speaker 2: don't you know, Like it's weird that she's all like 2096 01:38:46,800 --> 01:38:49,519 Speaker 2: she's she's the executive producer, and so I think we're 2097 01:38:49,520 --> 01:38:51,160 Speaker 2: going to fire her?
