Here is the New York City mayor elect, 15 00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:39,240 Speaker 2: Mam Darmi. 16 00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:42,879 Speaker 4: If anyone can show a nation betrayed by Donald Trump 17 00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:45,840 Speaker 4: how to defeat him, it is the city that gave 18 00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:49,600 Speaker 4: rise to him. So, Donald Trump, since I know you're watching, 19 00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:57,360 Speaker 4: I have four words for you. Turn the volume. 20 00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:59,840 Speaker 2: Up all right. Our Democrats have won governor races in 21 00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:03,440 Speaker 2: both New Jersey and Virginia as well, and I. 22 00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:08,000 Speaker 5: Am proud that our campaign earned votes from Democrats, Republicans, independents, 23 00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:11,640 Speaker 5: and everyone in between. That's the Virginia I know. That's 24 00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,880 Speaker 5: the Virginia I love, and that's the Virginia I will 25 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:18,120 Speaker 5: have the honor of serving as your next governor. 26 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:18,759 Speaker 6: Yeah. 27 00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:20,920 Speaker 2: So even Trump saying, look, this is not great for 28 00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:21,680 Speaker 2: the Republicans. 29 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:22,920 Speaker 7: You read the. 30 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:26,400 Speaker 8: Valses and the shutdown was a big factor negative for 31 00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:29,880 Speaker 8: the Republicans, and that was a big factor. And they 32 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:32,679 Speaker 8: say that I wasn't on the ballot was the biggest factor. 33 00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:35,919 Speaker 8: But I don't know about that, but I was honored 34 00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:36,759 Speaker 8: that they said that. 35 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:40,440 Speaker 2: There's also a bit of a warning for the Democrats 36 00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:42,880 Speaker 2: not to overread into this. I'll tell you about that 37 00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:46,000 Speaker 2: shortly in the program. Finally, protesters have sworn the streets 38 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:49,560 Speaker 2: of Paris. Is that's opened its first cut price machine store. 39 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 7: And across the road from them Kepta part by police 40 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 7: as a group of I don't know, maybe one hundred, 41 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 7: maybe a few more protesters significantly right across the street 42 00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:01,000 Speaker 7: from Besvaz the hotel div and that's in fact where 43 00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 7: the Ashley h three gets its name from. And that 44 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 7: they'll tell the the city Hall. They are vehemently opposed 45 00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:09,600 Speaker 7: to She, and they loathe she and all it stands for. 46 00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:12,520 Speaker 7: So you have a very physical reminder here of the 47 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:14,240 Speaker 7: two sides in this in this. 48 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 2: Argument basically, don't bring your cheap crap to Paris please. 49 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:21,440 Speaker 2: This is the home of fashion and that is a 50 00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:24,960 Speaker 2: crime against it. It's just gone eight minutes after five. 51 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 1: Get ahead of the headlines on early edition with Brian 52 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 1: Bridge and R the Supercenter explore R these accessories and 53 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 1: servicing all in one news talk. 54 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 2: Sa'd be great to have your company. Nine two nine 55 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 2: two is the numbers text. You know, this homeless ban thing, 56 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:42,960 Speaker 2: the talk that's going on. We had Hickens in the 57 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 2: house and then we had anywhere. It's been in the 58 00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:47,520 Speaker 2: media in the last twenty four hours. And I mean, 59 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:52,120 Speaker 2: you can't ban homeless people, well you can, but how 60 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:54,120 Speaker 2: do you actually do it? How do you define it? 61 00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:59,040 Speaker 2: You know who's homeless, who's just you know, asleep on 62 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:02,360 Speaker 2: the ground, you know what I mean? If they have 63 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:04,480 Speaker 2: to really, if you're going to do this properly, you 64 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 2: have to look at probably like intimidating behavior, which I 65 00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 2: would have thought would already have been illegal if you 66 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 2: go and intimidate people. But if groups of people are intimidating, 67 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 2: well it's a little more difficult. They passed the law 68 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 2: with the gang. So what do you do? Do you 69 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,360 Speaker 2: go and pass the law that says if there are 70 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 2: five or more people who are standing in a circle 71 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 2: on the side of a road, who look intimidating or 72 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:31,519 Speaker 2: feel intimidating, then arrest them. I mean, it's very difficult, 73 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 2: kind of fraught territory, but I reckon they are basically four. 74 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 2: So you have homeless people that there's beggars. They're different, right, 75 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,000 Speaker 2: There's people who being on the side of the road, 76 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 2: and actually they're quite harmless most of the time, you know, 77 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 2: they're quite friendly. They might say please or have you 78 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:51,320 Speaker 2: got something? They're not causing any trouble. So I don't 79 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:52,680 Speaker 2: know what do you do about them? Is that a 80 00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 2: different category we allow busking? You know? Is it that 81 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:59,119 Speaker 2: different to busking? I don't think so. And then there's 82 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 2: rough sleepers. Look, no one with a heart wants to 83 00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 2: see rough sleepers, you know, sleeping on the side of 84 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 2: the road with a sleeping bag. I personally don't blame them. 85 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 2: I mean, they clearly have addiction on mental health problems 86 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 2: that kind of stuff. But if it's so bad that 87 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 2: you can't shop in your CBD and the consumers are 88 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 2: starting to avoid the area like there's a plague on 89 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:23,159 Speaker 2: then you probably have to do something about it. My 90 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:28,119 Speaker 2: crescendo for you this morning is the window wipers. Okay, again, 91 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 2: different people, different people. Just we're just talking about things 92 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:34,320 Speaker 2: we see around us in the car. Okay, when you 93 00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:38,280 Speaker 2: are at a very busy arterial route intersection and there 94 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:41,479 Speaker 2: is somebody you know, with a water bottle in one 95 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 2: hand and a scrubbing brush in the other wandering through 96 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:50,600 Speaker 2: the lanes in rush hour traffic, they are putting themselves 97 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 2: as sales at risk and everybody else around them. Now 98 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:59,279 Speaker 2: for those people, and it always blows my mind. The 99 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:02,479 Speaker 2: car in front of me whine's the window down and 100 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 2: gives them money. I'm sorry that is That is not 101 00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:08,480 Speaker 2: a smart idea. That is not a way to keep 102 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 2: the roads safe. So that should be illegal. Ryan Bridge, 103 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,200 Speaker 2: time to eleven.

Well, it turns out not 127 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 2: a single person has been even fined. The cops said 128 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 2: a year ago that they've got computer system and problems. 129 00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:25,720 Speaker 2: Apparently computer says no won't allow them to issue fines, 130 00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 2: and so they didn't. They also didn't believe it was 131 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:31,159 Speaker 2: the right way. They were taking a health first approach 132 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,159 Speaker 2: at the time. The minister told them to sort it out. 133 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:37,599 Speaker 2: But it still hasn't happened. Apparently, Mark Mitchell is the 134 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 2: police minister with me this morning. Minister, good morning, good 135 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:41,599 Speaker 2: morning Ron. 136 00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:43,560 Speaker 9: And you're the only one that I get up at 137 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:45,840 Speaker 9: quarter past five in the morning to discuss fape with. 138 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:48,800 Speaker 2: Mate, I'll tell you that. Well, well, I'm happy. I'm 139 00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:52,800 Speaker 2: happy you're here. I'm happy you're here because because look, 140 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:55,040 Speaker 2: I don't think you'll be listened to. It's important you 141 00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:57,479 Speaker 2: listened to. But what's going on listening to her? 142 00:06:57,560 --> 00:06:58,480 Speaker 9: Right? I'm listening to her? 143 00:06:58,520 --> 00:06:59,280 Speaker 2: Right? Don't you worry? 144 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 9: That have been the previous government's priority. My priority was 145 00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 9: stopping ram raids, getting on top of aggravated robbery violent 146 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:10,240 Speaker 9: crime which under the previous government six years as a 147 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 9: country would seen skyrockets. 148 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:16,600 Speaker 2: The police are voping in cars, are smoking in cars. 149 00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:19,800 Speaker 9: I'm just addressing the point that you're saying. Are the 150 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 9: police listening to me? Absolutely they are. They're responding to 151 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 9: my expectation that I released publicly. 152 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 2: On this one. Are they listening on this one? 153 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:28,560 Speaker 6: Well? 154 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:31,559 Speaker 9: The vaping is that you're going to talk to the police. 155 00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 9: That is an operational issue, and so they're very clear 156 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 9: about the fact that they prefer a health response around this, 157 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:41,400 Speaker 9: and that is quite simply educating parents not to do it, 158 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 9: and I totally support them in that view. However, however, 159 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:47,640 Speaker 9: there is legislation there they're looking at how they can 160 00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:50,760 Speaker 9: operationalize that. That does mean trying to come up with 161 00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:52,040 Speaker 9: a fines type system. 162 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:57,000 Speaker 2: Here's the problem and do work on that. Okay, that's 163 00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 2: all great, But here's the problem. The law was passed 164 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 2: back in twenty twenty. How is it that we're in 165 00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 2: almost in twenty twenty six and they have never bothered 166 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 2: to come up with a system to introduce a fine 167 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 2: that Parliament said was a potential punishment. 168 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:15,800 Speaker 9: Well, I think there's a couple of things. Number one, 169 00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 9: I think that it is an operational question around how 170 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:21,640 Speaker 9: the operational operational is it That is for police number 171 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 9: two to do it number two. But the important thing 172 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:26,240 Speaker 9: is to your question is there was a change of 173 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:30,960 Speaker 9: government with a different set of priorities. This stuff my 174 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 9: priorities the minister is the incoming minister. Is that we 175 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:37,959 Speaker 9: had seen a massive increasing violent crime and communities were 176 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:38,320 Speaker 9: no longer. 177 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:41,160 Speaker 2: You are not wrong, and you're not wrong. But I 178 00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 2: guess the thing is, is it sort of just up 179 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:46,240 Speaker 2: to police what they do. I mean, Parliament can say yeah, 180 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:47,520 Speaker 2: i'll pass this law. I want to do this, and 181 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:49,560 Speaker 2: I want to do that, and here's the punishments, and 182 00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:52,240 Speaker 2: police are like, well, we like that one and we 183 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 2: don't like that one, so we'll make up our own minds. 184 00:08:57,160 --> 00:09:00,480 Speaker 9: No, I think that Parliament size to give police powers 185 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 9: and then police have to use obviously have used judicial 186 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 9: use of those powers. I can't interfere operation. There is 187 00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:13,040 Speaker 9: a separation that's extremely important that is in place. I 188 00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:15,800 Speaker 9: don't get to tell the police questioner how or when 189 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 9: he's going to deploy his staff. What I do is 190 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 9: I set our policies in terms of public safety, which 191 00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 9: I very clearly did, and I released my letter publicly 192 00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 9: when I became minister, and there was a big focus 193 00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:30,319 Speaker 9: on increasing visibility, on getting on top of violent crime. 194 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:33,440 Speaker 9: That was my propos were my priorities enough and the 195 00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:35,640 Speaker 9: police and the police are responding to those priorities. 196 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:38,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, fair enough. Hey, just before we go this 197 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:41,480 Speaker 2: idea of sort of banning that do police need more 198 00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:46,319 Speaker 2: powers to move on homeless people or beggars or rough sleepers. 199 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean this is this is the Labor Party 200 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:54,280 Speaker 9: trying to create a whole lot of hysteria around the 201 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:56,880 Speaker 9: fact that they're trying to create the impression that we 202 00:09:56,960 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 9: won't let people come into Auckland CVDS. That is not true. 203 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 9: Quite simply, what we are trying to do and working 204 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 9: hard on is making sure it's a really complex issue. 205 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:09,960 Speaker 9: When I sort of when I was dealing with reducing 206 00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 9: violent crime in ow Auckland CBD, which the police have 207 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:17,959 Speaker 9: been very successful at doing, we had fifteen rough sleepers. 208 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 9: Most of them had somewhere to go and sleep, most 209 00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:23,079 Speaker 9: of them had the residents that they go and sleep. 210 00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 9: They're making a community that they're making a decision to 211 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:29,480 Speaker 9: congregate as a community in the CBD, and what There's 212 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:32,080 Speaker 9: a whole lot of social issues there. There's intimidation issues, 213 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 9: there was risk to the public and there was risk 214 00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 9: to themselves as well. 215 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:41,520 Speaker 2: So did they have home, Yes, they had places to absolutely, 216 00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:42,559 Speaker 2: absolutely so. 217 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:46,720 Speaker 9: But what we're doing, as we're recognizing and saying that 218 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:50,000 Speaker 9: there's a homelessness problem, I am I am reinstating in 219 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:53,440 Speaker 9: one working very closely with with Simeon Brown on this 220 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:58,119 Speaker 9: who's the Minister for Auckland And I'm reinstating my stakeholder 221 00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:01,079 Speaker 9: group which is the heart to the city, residence and 222 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:06,080 Speaker 9: rape pass groups, social service providers, government agencies, local government, CPNZ, 223 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 9: Mary Warden's we all came together.

Absolutely 227 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 9: when we were talking at when we're discussing this, that's 228 00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:22,559 Speaker 9: not part of the government agenda at the moment. It's 229 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 9: it is certainly We've got a private members bill in 230 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:28,480 Speaker 9: the Biscuit team from Ryan Hamilton, a very good one 231 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 9: that he's brought forward, which is a move on order 232 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:34,160 Speaker 9: which gives the police the ability to go and pick 233 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:36,360 Speaker 9: someone up that is living on the street, that is 234 00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:40,000 Speaker 9: in danger, that it is current problems for members of 235 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:43,960 Speaker 9: the public and move them to a safe location into 236 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:44,640 Speaker 9: a house. 237 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:48,200 Speaker 2: Not to the next over.

I appreciate your time this morning. 239 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:52,560 Speaker 2: That is Mark Mitchell, Police Minister. It's just gone five twenty. 240 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:55,119 Speaker 2: News talks had been Ryan. 241 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 1: Bridge on early edition with r V super Center explore 242 00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 1: rvsceptre's the results servicing all in one news talks. 243 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:04,600 Speaker 2: They'b five twenty two news talks there be will go 244 00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 2: stateside after five thirty news for an update on the 245 00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:09,319 Speaker 2: elections there Key, we is here calling in sick more 246 00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:12,439 Speaker 2: than ever businesses are feeling it. We're now averaging six 247 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:15,840 Speaker 2: point seven six days a year. That is up from 248 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 2: five and a half in twenty twenty two. This has 249 00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:21,439 Speaker 2: come from a Business New Zealand and Southern Cross report. 250 00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 2: They blame labour twenty twenty one move doubling the sick 251 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 2: leaven titament from five to ten days. You'll remember that 252 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:30,600 Speaker 2: Alan McDonald's with us from the Employees Manufacturers Association. Allen, 253 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:34,840 Speaker 2: good morning, morning Roally. So is that how material is 254 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:37,000 Speaker 2: that to a business's costs? 255 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:41,439 Speaker 6: Oh? Well, every day you're not working and you're paying 256 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:45,199 Speaker 6: somebody for it. Obviously that is a cost, and that's 257 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,439 Speaker 6: a bit of lost productivity. But I mean the flip 258 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:52,800 Speaker 6: side is that I think most employers realize and manage 259 00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 6: their workforces because it's better perhaps to not have them 260 00:12:56,679 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 6: there rather than coming and con checking other people of stuff, 261 00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 6: which is what the change is made for in the 262 00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:06,480 Speaker 6: first place. Under COVID, but I think still applies with 263 00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:08,240 Speaker 6: everything else that's floating around as well. 264 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:10,640 Speaker 2: What are people saying when they you know, what's the 265 00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 2: excuse when they call in sack these days that do 266 00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:14,959 Speaker 2: people say I'm just I need the day off, that 267 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:17,320 Speaker 2: they say I'm sick. Do they say I'm taking a 268 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:18,080 Speaker 2: personal day. 269 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:25,240 Speaker 6: It's generally genuine sickness, and I think most employers do 270 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 6: accept that that is the case. So, you know, I 271 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:31,000 Speaker 6: think at the old days of malingerers, if you like, 272 00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:34,640 Speaker 6: you don't see much of that. There's always some of 273 00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:36,880 Speaker 6: that though, but it's a very small proportion. 274 00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 2: So this increase is actually just better reflecting how sick 275 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:42,199 Speaker 2: we do get in your average year. 276 00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think it better reflects the understanding in the 277 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:51,240 Speaker 6: workplace that you know, people do get sick, they are 278 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:54,120 Speaker 6: genuine about it, and it's better to haven't managed and 279 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 6: have them in the workplace. But do remember there's a 280 00:13:57,240 --> 00:14:00,160 Speaker 6: change coming for part time workers as well, that that 281 00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:04,400 Speaker 6: ten days. Yeah, entitlement is going with the news leave 282 00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:06,679 Speaker 6: that typic Reld's bringing. 283 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 2: In really interesting stuff. Ellen, thank you for that. Alan McDonald. 284 00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:12,960 Speaker 2: The employees of Manufacturer Association time now is twenty four 285 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:17,320 Speaker 2: minutes after five you're on News TALKSZBB.

News 289 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:28,600 Speaker 2: Talks EBB. 290 00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 1: The early edition full the show podcast on iHeartRadio powered 291 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:34,280 Speaker 1: by Newstalks. 292 00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:37,800 Speaker 2: IB five twenty six News Talks VB. There's a form 293 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,840 Speaker 2: of economic nimbiism that's going on in this country. You've 294 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,560 Speaker 2: probably noticed it too. If we want to get ahead, 295 00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 2: surely we are all aware that there must be trade offs. 296 00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 2: There's no business, no growth, no economic miracle that comes 297 00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:56,160 Speaker 2: about without a cost to someone somewhere. Whether it's intensive 298 00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:58,680 Speaker 2: agriculture that can have an effect on the environment, whether 299 00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:03,320 Speaker 2: it's water to run the data centers that power your smartphones. 300 00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:08,000 Speaker 2: Every success cost you something. Generally, the trick is to 301 00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:11,120 Speaker 2: be reasonable, take risks, mitigate them, or just be willing 302 00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:13,600 Speaker 2: to wear the costs. The problem we have, I don't 303 00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 2: think is necessarily a lack of opportunities of wherewithal or enthusiasm, 304 00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 2: not even in many cases investment. I was just an Oago, 305 00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 2: just recently beautiful place, stunning Central Otago, there's a gold 306 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:29,120 Speaker 2: mine permit that's been issued there. You might have seen 307 00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 2: that in the news. Sam Neil was dead against the 308 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,640 Speaker 2: project when I was down there, as are many others. 309 00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:37,720 Speaker 2: You know, there's opposition, there's legal challenges, fair enough, you 310 00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:40,360 Speaker 2: know they've got houses in the area. Worried about trucks 311 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:43,560 Speaker 2: on the road then what it looks like. But it's 312 00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 2: also an area that would be serviced by this brand 313 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:50,120 Speaker 2: new hospital that Dunedin is getting. Half the town's buildings 314 00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:52,520 Speaker 2: by the way, and Otarger wouldn't be there to begin 315 00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 2: with if it not for gold mining. So the permits issued. 316 00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:59,200 Speaker 2: The rest is with fast track whatever. But how are 317 00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 2: you going to pay for that hospital? How are you 318 00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 2: going to pay for that hospital? Wanaka said no to 319 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 2: a McDonald's in part due to concerns about healthy eating. 320 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:11,080 Speaker 2: Residents objected to a solar farm in part because of 321 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:15,600 Speaker 2: something called lunar reflection, that the moonlight might reflect off 322 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 2: a solar panel like it would I don't know a 323 00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:21,680 Speaker 2: lake or an ocean. I mean, come on, are we 324 00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:25,600 Speaker 2: clutching its straws here or what. It's all well and good, 325 00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 2: but if we want stuff like new hospitals, highways and 326 00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:32,080 Speaker 2: potholes fixed, you have to pay for them somehow, And 327 00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:35,320 Speaker 2: there's a little too much economic nimbiism going on at 328 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:38,040 Speaker 2: the moment, I think for anyone to be seriously complaining 329 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:41,920 Speaker 2: about the state of things.

This is, according to the 510 00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:07,360 Speaker 2: papers over there, mistakenly freed from a scandal hit her 511 00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:12,000 Speaker 2: Majesty's prison, wan'sworth the Algerian convict twenty four and there 512 00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:15,440 Speaker 2: was trespassed, stealing, previously, committing sexual offenses, you name it, 513 00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:19,480 Speaker 2: and he's Scott free. It's thirteen to six. 514 00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:23,760 Speaker 1: Now international correspondence with ends in eye insurance, peace of 515 00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:25,119 Speaker 1: mind for New Zealand business. 516 00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:29,000 Speaker 2: Let's go state sides. Of course, we have a new 517 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:31,639 Speaker 2: mayor of New York City who's garnering headlines, one because 518 00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:33,840 Speaker 2: he's the first Muslim mayor of New York City, but 519 00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:37,240 Speaker 2: also because in the financial capital of the world, arguably 520 00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:40,400 Speaker 2: we have a socialist mayor to Greutie Dave is with 521 00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:43,880 Speaker 2: me from Feature Story News this morning. Good morning morning. 522 00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:46,440 Speaker 2: So he's just had a press conference. What's he's saying, 523 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:46,800 Speaker 2: do we know? 524 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:52,199 Speaker 14: Well, he has essentially been talking about the reasons why 525 00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:56,560 Speaker 14: he's won. He's been taking questions and he is really 526 00:26:57,119 --> 00:26:59,760 Speaker 14: you know, I think playing on that victory speech that 527 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:02,399 Speaker 14: he gave where he was talking about, you know how 528 00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:06,840 Speaker 14: his campaign has defeated a dynasty, a political dynasty, talking 529 00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:10,119 Speaker 14: about Andrew Coomo, his major rival, who got the backing 530 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:14,359 Speaker 14: of Donald Trump. Despite that Coomo didn't get you know, 531 00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:17,680 Speaker 14: enough Republicans to go on board and you know, go 532 00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:20,960 Speaker 14: vote for Coomo. And so, you know, I think this 533 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:24,240 Speaker 14: is a real shift in for the Democrats in many 534 00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:27,159 Speaker 14: ways because they've been kind of in the wilderness a 535 00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:31,560 Speaker 14: little bit since Donald Trump's election, and they're getting a 536 00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:34,520 Speaker 14: little bit of you know, wind under their sales as 537 00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:37,000 Speaker 14: looking forward to the midterms. And I think this is 538 00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:38,760 Speaker 14: just sort of the momentum in New York. You know, 539 00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:41,840 Speaker 14: it's this is what he's really been talking about. The 540 00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:45,879 Speaker 14: cost of living is what zoron Mum Danny really rode on. 541 00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:48,920 Speaker 14: And it's an indication that that is really what elections 542 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:51,600 Speaker 14: ride on. It's the economy, stupid, That's what we're always 543 00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 14: told and I think this election proves that that is 544 00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:55,639 Speaker 14: still the case. 545 00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:59,919 Speaker 2: And yet the Democrats aren't running towards some arms open, 546 00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:02,600 Speaker 2: are they. I mean, this is the awkward thing for them. 547 00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 2: They He's quite radical in terms of the political spectrum 548 00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:09,359 Speaker 2: in the UIs so trying to present that and this 549 00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:11,360 Speaker 2: is why the Republicans are trying to paint him as 550 00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:15,200 Speaker 2: the defecto leader of the Democrats, right because it's better 551 00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 2: for them. 552 00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:19,960 Speaker 14: Yeah, this is the Democrats have always had this issue, 553 00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:23,119 Speaker 14: you know, when you look at in primaries when Bernie 554 00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:25,239 Speaker 14: Sanders was running, You've always had the left of the 555 00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:29,320 Speaker 14: party and the so called moderates of the party wrestling 556 00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:33,920 Speaker 14: as to the identity of the Democratic Party as a whole, 557 00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:35,960 Speaker 14: and the things are on. Mum Danny is part of 558 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 14: that conversation that the Democrats are going to be having. 559 00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:43,120 Speaker 14: You know, people like Chuck Schumer didn't endorse Mumdani before, 560 00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:48,080 Speaker 14: openly endorse Mumdany before his victory, and now is talking 561 00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:50,920 Speaker 14: about how this is his victory and there's results results 562 00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:54,160 Speaker 14: as a whole of Democratic candidates winning on different ballots 563 00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:57,160 Speaker 14: in different ballots is a repudiation of Donald Trump. So 564 00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:59,840 Speaker 14: they're really juggling with this idea of somebody who calls 565 00:28:59,880 --> 00:29:04,240 Speaker 14: an unashamingly a Democratic socialist, who is you know, the 566 00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:08,120 Speaker 14: city's first Muslim mayor, who is a prop immigrant. All 567 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:10,200 Speaker 14: of this is an identity. How do they grapple that 568 00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:11,800 Speaker 14: with the moderates who are saying, well, we need to 569 00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:15,280 Speaker 14: be making talking points they're going to be bringing over. 570 00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:18,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly.

Good morning, Good morning, Ryan. 580 00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:45,640 Speaker 2: Economists are saying this is the bottom of the rutch. 581 00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:48,040 Speaker 2: We will come up from here. What are you seeing? 582 00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:55,960 Speaker 15: Look, that's not how it feels on the ground at 583 00:29:56,000 --> 00:30:02,200 Speaker 15: the moment, Ryan, So it's one to look at it. 584 00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:05,560 Speaker 15: I suppose from a more academic point of view. We 585 00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:10,880 Speaker 15: know these things are cyclic. It doesn't feel like it. 586 00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:15,320 Speaker 15: We still have our local business partners and in the 587 00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:20,040 Speaker 15: business community is still really struggling quarter at a time. 588 00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:26,080 Speaker 15: We know that for us here in our region, a 589 00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:31,160 Speaker 15: local business survey last month indicated that only twenty percent 590 00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:38,840 Speaker 15: of businesses are hiring. So yeah, I hope that that's true. 591 00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:42,280 Speaker 15: I've heard similar things in the past and it's gotten worse. 592 00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:45,600 Speaker 15: But we're really feeling it on the ground at the moment, 593 00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:48,600 Speaker 15: especially with our young rang Atahi. 594 00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:51,280 Speaker 2: But that's the problem, isn't it that you've got We've 595 00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:53,320 Speaker 2: been told so many times now that things are going 596 00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:55,640 Speaker 2: to get better. It's almost like the boy who Cried. 597 00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:59,840 Speaker 15: Wolf, you know, yeah, exactly, and it's all in hindsight. 598 00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:05,080 Speaker 15: Oh well, you know this factor this situation. But I 599 00:31:05,120 --> 00:31:11,320 Speaker 15: think it's not to make the situation, you know, a 600 00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 15: bad news story or for business confidence to go down. 601 00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:19,560 Speaker 15: On the ground. Real people every day are really struggling, 602 00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:22,360 Speaker 15: and I think I think there's a rhetoric out there 603 00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:26,440 Speaker 15: Ryan there it's like, if you want to work, there's 604 00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:29,400 Speaker 15: a job for you, and I can promise you that 605 00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:30,360 Speaker 15: it's not the case. 606 00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:33,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, not in all cases, one hundred percent.
