8
00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:27,200
Speaker 2: the global stock markets having a panic attack? They have

9
00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:30,120
Speaker 2: been while we've been sleeping. Shares a tumbling left, right

10
00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:33,760
Speaker 2: and center. Why some are saying dying panic. Calm down,

11
00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:37,520
Speaker 2: it's a false alarm. Also this morning, the butcher gets

Speaker 2: his bacon, Finn butcher has one gold. Who knew that

13
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:41,600
Speaker 2: was going to happen?

14
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:41,960
Speaker 3: Not me.

15
00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:45,839
Speaker 2: We'll talk more about that shortly. Plus let's call it

16
00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:50,040
Speaker 2: what it is, an education crisis. Given the data we

17
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:53,920
Speaker 2: had yesterday plus new NCA figures, We're going to ask

18
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:56,840
Speaker 2: the New Zealand Initiative for their opinion on this, not

19
00:00:56,920 --> 00:01:00,200
Speaker 2: the unions, the New Zealand Initiative for their opinion US

20
00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:06,039
Speaker 2: before six it is seven after five the agenda Tuesday

21
00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:08,520
Speaker 2: to sixth of August. Stock markets in the US have

22
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:11,560
Speaker 2: basically had a freak out overnight. The Dale Jones has

23
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:14,479
Speaker 2: dropped almost at one thousand points, with every DAL stock

24
00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:16,679
Speaker 2: in the red now, the S and P five hundred

25
00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 2: down four point one on early trading, the Nasdaq down

26
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:22,160
Speaker 2: six point three. Some of those losses have now been

27
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:26,399
Speaker 2: called back. It follows global concern about a slowing US economy.

28
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,400
Speaker 2: Job data from the States on Friday show to rise

29
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:33,640
Speaker 2: and unemployment to four point three percent. Bangladesh's Prime Minister,

30
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:37,600
Speaker 2: Sheikh Hasina, has resigned and fled the country following weeks

31
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:42,320
Speaker 2: of anti government protests. Protesters have now stormed her official

32
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 2: residents celebrating her resignation. Three hundred people have died in

33
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:02,040
Speaker 2: the clashes between protesters and police, which arted peacefully in June.

34
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 2: So what happens now, we'll look at that soon. The

35
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 2: Meat Industry Associations revealed that New Zealand exported nine hundred

36
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 2: and fourteen million dollars worth of red meat in June.

37
00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 2: It's nearly a billion bucks. The US is once again

38
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:18,360
Speaker 2: leading the pack is our key exports, jumping fourteen percent

39
00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:22,360
Speaker 2: to three hundred and three million dollars. Chief executive Serma

40
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:27,160
Speaker 2: Karapever says global economic conditions seem to be improving with

41
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 2: food inflation falling.

42
00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:32,720
Speaker 4: We are hopeful that all that continues and as a result,

43
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:33,880
Speaker 4: we see more.

44
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:36,720
Speaker 5: Demand or sustained demands than all those countries.

45
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 1: The first Word on the News of the Day Early

46

Speaker 1: edition with Ryan Bridge and Smith City, New Zealand's Furniture

47

Speaker 1: Beds and a Playing Store.

48
00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 2: News Talk d be in a few minutes. We're going

49
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:52,720
Speaker 2: to talk to the presidential historian who has correctly predicted

50
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:58,239
Speaker 2: every single US presidential election since the nineteen eighties, bar

51
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:01,000
Speaker 2: Al Gore in two thousand. So who's going to win

52
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 2: the next year's election? I suppose we'll find out in

53
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:06,160
Speaker 2: a few minutes. Hey, congratulations Finn Butcher. He's taken gold

54
00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:09,239
Speaker 2: in the men's canoe slalom cross. He led the field

55
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:12,120
Speaker 2: basically from the start to the finish. It was a

56
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:17,840
Speaker 2: flawless performance. If you're wondering exactly what that is. Four paddlers,

57
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:25,399
Speaker 2: huge drop into whitewater. They kayak down the water. There

58
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:27,600
Speaker 2: are gates, they go round the gates, they go in

59
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:31,440
Speaker 2: the gates. They do a little you know, flip, what

60
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:34,640
Speaker 2: do they call that? You go under the water and

61
00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:38,480
Speaker 2: flip around. They do a roll. That's it, thanks Leo.

62
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:41,960
Speaker 2: They do a role and then they finish. It's very

63
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 2: over in a second before you know it. Have a listen.

64
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:49,040
Speaker 6: It's Clark makes and roaches. He's around gate five. He

65
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:52,280
Speaker 6: has to go across the grain here Butcher through gate six.

66
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 6: Two gates to go through seven, the all important upstream

67
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 6: gates for Finn. Butcher uses to navigate it shafely and

68
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 6: the gold medal is his. Finn Butcher is an Olympic champion.

69
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:17,200
Speaker 2: That was very excited. So this is a new event

70
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:20,440
Speaker 2: of the Olympics. So he is the first champion in

71
00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:24,240
Speaker 2: this event and his first Olympic Games as well, which

72
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:28,000
Speaker 2: is very cool. Now the women's track cycling is happening.

73
00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:31,839
Speaker 2: We are in contention. I am hearing potentially for a medal,

74
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,599
Speaker 2: So we'll bring you that live as it happens here

75
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 2: on news Talk, said B. It has just gone ten

76
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:40,120
Speaker 2: after five. Coming up next, Who's going to win the

77
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 2: US Presidential Election?

78
00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:46,839
Speaker 1: On your radio and online on iHeartRadio Early edition with

79
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 1: Ryan Bridge and Smith City, New Zealand's Furniture, Beds and

80
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:51,239
Speaker 1: a playing Store.

81
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:55,280
Speaker 2: News Talk said B. Thirteen after five, News Talk said B, Hey,

82
00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:58,480
Speaker 2: there are unconfirmed reports this morning that a Kiwi helicopter

83
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 2: pilot has been killed in Harpour in Indonesia. This is

84
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 2: the same place where the other Kiwi, Philip Mertons, who

85
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:10,799
Speaker 2: was piloting a fixed wing aircraft, was taken a hostage

86
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:12,800
Speaker 2: and so he's still been held captive there. That was

87
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:16,160
Speaker 2: eighteen months ago. Apparently it's the same group they think

88
00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:21,080
Speaker 2: who kidnapped Philip Mertens, who was responsible for killing this

89
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:24,679
Speaker 2: Keiwi helicopter pilot. This is an unconfirmed report from local

90
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:26,880
Speaker 2: police at this stage. We'll keep you up to date

91
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 2: with that throughout the morning. Right to the United States

92
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:32,160
Speaker 2: we Go. Karmena Harris is set to announce her vice

93
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:36,239
Speaker 2: presidential pick tomorrow, ahead of their first public appearance together

94
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:41,839
Speaker 2: in Pennsylvania on Thursday. Presidential historian Alan Lickman has correctly

95
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:46,520
Speaker 2: predicted almost every US election since the nineteen eighties through

96
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:50,279
Speaker 2: a process called the Thirteen Keys to the White House.

97
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,160
Speaker 2: He's with us this morning, Alan, thanks for being on

98
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:54,160
Speaker 2: the show. Who's going to win?

99
00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:57,640
Speaker 5: Well? I have not made a final prediction yet. I've

100
00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:00,240
Speaker 5: been misinterpreted as having made one, but I'm I'm not

101
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:04,719
Speaker 5: going to make one until after the Democratic Convention. But

102
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:08,560
Speaker 5: I have been saying for months and the switch from

103
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:12,760
Speaker 5: Biden to Harris, has not changed that that a lot

104
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:16,120
Speaker 5: would have to go wrong for the Democrats to lose.

105
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 5: That's certainly possible, that can happen. Things are very fluid,

106
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:23,440
Speaker 5: but a lot would have to go wrong for the

107
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:27,040
Speaker 5: Democrats to lose. According to my keys to the White

108
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:32,560
Speaker 5: House system, which taps into the structure of how American

109
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:37,560
Speaker 5: presidential elections really work as votes up or down on

110
00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:40,840
Speaker 5: the strength and performance of the White House Party. And

111
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:44,640
Speaker 5: the system has been right since I predicted Ronald Reagan's

112
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:48,719
Speaker 5: re election in April nineteen eighty two, nearly three years

113
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:51,760
Speaker 5: ahead of time, when America was then in the worst

114
00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:56,040
Speaker 5: recession since the Great Depression, and sixty percent of Americans

115
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 5: thought Ronald Reagan was too old to run again. And

116
00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:04,159
Speaker 5: of course I was virtually alone in predicting Donald Trump's

117
00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:08,400
Speaker 5: win in twenty sixteen, which is you can imagine, did

118
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:12,720
Speaker 5: not make me very popular in ninety percent plus Democratic

119
00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:16,920
Speaker 5: Washington d c or. I teach at American University.

120
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 2: That year formula works. You're stuck to it, You're held

121
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,600
Speaker 2: to ground. I think that's when I last interviewed you.

122
00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:25,920
Speaker 2: You've got these thirteen keys. Some of them are about

123
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,080
Speaker 2: the economy, you know, the short term economy, the long

124
00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:31,840
Speaker 2: term economy. Obviously, there's been inflation in the US, the

125
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:34,720
Speaker 2: stock markets are in turmoil at the moment. Do you

126
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:38,320
Speaker 2: weight the keys differently or they all waited the same.

127
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:43,440
Speaker 5: There are two secrets to the successful use of the keys,

128
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:48,240
Speaker 5: and one is they're all weighted as one. The problem

129
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:52,400
Speaker 5: is when you wait parameters of any system, they have

130
00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:56,080
Speaker 5: to be based on past elections, but the weights will

131
00:07:56,080 --> 00:08:02,840
Speaker 5: then unpredictably change in a future election eras. Secondly, there

132
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:06,520
Speaker 5: are trigger effects, so if one key is big enough,

133
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:09,920
Speaker 5: it will trigger other keys. For example, in the sixties,

134
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:14,680
Speaker 5: the war in Vietnam triggered Lyndon Johnson to withdraw from

135
00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:19,720
Speaker 5: his re election campaign, losing the incumbency key, losing the

136
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:23,240
Speaker 5: party contest key. The war created a great deal of

137
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:28,400
Speaker 5: social unrest and democratic losses in the midterm elections of

138
00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:29,880
Speaker 5: nineteen sixty six.

139
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:33,720
Speaker 2: You mentioned the incumbency key. Does Harris get that even

140
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:37,760
Speaker 2: though she wasn't the president in this term.

141
00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:41,240
Speaker 5: Well, you know, I was very critical of the democrats

142
00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:46,600
Speaker 5: shameful public trashing of their incumbent president, and I thought

143
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:49,960
Speaker 5: they were heading for the disaster of both losing the

144
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:54,840
Speaker 5: incumbency key if they forced by out and losing the

145
00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:58,800
Speaker 5: party contest key, because they were heading for a big brawl.

146
00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:02,360
Speaker 5: But somehow the Democrats, who aspine in a brain, did

147
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:07,080
Speaker 5: the right thing, united behind Harris, which avoided the loss

148
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:12,000
Speaker 5: of the contest key. And so this major change only

149
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:16,320
Speaker 5: cost the Democrats one key, the incumbency key, and did

150
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:20,120
Speaker 5: not fundamentally change my assessment.

151
00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:23,439
Speaker 2: What about Robert F. Kennedy, one of your keys is

152
00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:27,840
Speaker 2: a third party being involved. What do you think his

153
00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:30,280
Speaker 2: chances will be? And who does it hurt?

154
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:35,720
Speaker 5: Third parties in my system count against the White House

155
00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:40,240
Speaker 5: Party because it's a sign of discontent. But it's a

156
00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 5: high threshold key. You've got to anticipate the third party

157
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:47,080
Speaker 5: candidate to be getting at least five percent of the vote.

158
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:49,400
Speaker 5: Of course I don't know that. So it's the one

159
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 5: time I have to use a poll. But I don't

160
00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:55,240
Speaker 5: take the poll at face value because typically as a

161
00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:59,840
Speaker 5: result of the Lickman wasted vote syndrome, I love you RFKG,

162
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:02,600
Speaker 5: which can't win, so I won't vote for you. I

163
00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:05,280
Speaker 5: cut the poll numbers in half. So he's got to

164
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:08,560
Speaker 5: be polling at least ten percent. I don't think that's

165
00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:09,040
Speaker 5: going to.

166
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:11,520
Speaker 2: Happen, Ell in one of your case. The final question

167
00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:16,800
Speaker 2: is incumbent charisma, challenge of charisma, who's more charismatic.

168
00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:21,440
Speaker 5: It's not a question of who's more charismatic, it's a

169
00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:26,400
Speaker 5: question of whether these candidates fulfill my criteria, which is

170
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:28,280
Speaker 5: they have to be one of these once in a

171
00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:35,960
Speaker 5: generation inspirational, broadly appealing candidates who converts members of the opposition,

172
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:41,280
Speaker 5: like the Democrat Franklin Roosevelt or the Republican Ronald Reagan

173
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:46,680
Speaker 5: who won six elections in landslides or near landslides. Clearly,

174
00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:50,920
Speaker 5: Paris has not yet emerged as an FDR, and Trump

175
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:55,080
Speaker 5: is not a Reagan. He lost two elections in the

176
00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:58,679
Speaker 5: votes of the people by ten million votes. There are

177
00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:03,719
Speaker 5: not a Trump Democrats like there were Reagan Democrats. He

178
00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:07,400
Speaker 5: only appeals to a narrow base and thus does not

179
00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:09,199
Speaker 5: fit the criteria either.

180
00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:11,440
Speaker 1: Ryan Bridge, there was.

181
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:15,520
Speaker 2: Alan Lickman, who's the presidential historian, has correctly predicted every

182
00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:19,200
Speaker 2: single US election since the nineteen eighties, bar two thousand

183
00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:20,920
Speaker 2: when he says al Gore should have won, and we

184
00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:24,080
Speaker 2: all know what happened in Florida. With that anyway, coming

185
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:26,280
Speaker 2: up next, I would like your feedback on that too. Actually,

186
00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:28,280
Speaker 2: if you think he's if he's got a good point,

187
00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:30,760
Speaker 2: I mean clearly he's doing something right. Nine two ninety

188
00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:33,280
Speaker 2: two is the number to text and welcome your text

189
00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:36,320
Speaker 2: this morning. Coming up next. Two and a half thousand

190
00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:39,200
Speaker 2: ambulance offices are going on strikes. So what happens if

191
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:40,520
Speaker 2: you ring one on one.

192
00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:43,640
Speaker 1: News and views you trust to start your day. It's

193
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:47,440
Speaker 1: early edition with Ryan Bridge and Smith City, New Zealand's

194
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:51,319
Speaker 1: furniture beds and a flying store news talk sidby US.

195
00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:53,920
Speaker 2: Stocks were down and then they were back up again slightly,

196
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,240
Speaker 2: and now they're down again. We'll have more on that shortly.

197
00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:58,839
Speaker 2: Right now. More than two and a half thousand ambulance

198
00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:02,280
Speaker 2: offices are going on this month. It comes after failed

199
00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:05,360
Speaker 2: pay negotiations with Saint John, who says it has no

200
00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:08,200
Speaker 2: money and is relying on Health New Zealand to bring

201
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:11,880
Speaker 2: something to the table. First Union and Ambulance Association members

202
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:16,840
Speaker 2: voted to stagger four hour withdrawals of labor over two days.

203
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:20,520
Speaker 2: Famer Can is with First Union, She's with us this morning, Faye.

204
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:23,400
Speaker 2: How will this work? This withdrawal of labor?

205
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:28,000
Speaker 7: Yeah, So our members basically will show up to work

206
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:31,440
Speaker 7: late four hours late on the twentieth and on the

207
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:34,240
Speaker 7: twenty fourth of August, and.

208
00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:36,559
Speaker 2: How will that affect the service?

209
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:41,000
Speaker 7: So there will be less ambulances available, there'll be less

210
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:45,680
Speaker 7: call handlers to answer calls, less the statues. Ultimately we

211
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:48,160
Speaker 7: go on to an agreement with Saint John to provide

212
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:51,880
Speaker 7: minimum staffing numbers, so it'll be reduced service, but they

213
00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:54,440
Speaker 7: will still be ambulances available there for people.

214
00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:57,600
Speaker 2: When you it's how many of your members are going

215
00:12:57,679 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 2: to be turning up late?

216
00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:05,360
Speaker 7: So we represent a thousand members and astoundingly, ninety five

217
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:07,960
Speaker 7: percent of them were keen to take this action. It's

218
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:11,160
Speaker 7: unfortunate that we've got to the stage. Obviously it's not

219
00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:13,560
Speaker 7: the ideal situation, and we took a lot of different

220
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:17,240
Speaker 7: strike actions before this, but ultimately the government has chosen

221
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:20,040
Speaker 7: to ignore their voices services then making sure that they're heard.

222
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:22,960
Speaker 2: So that's a thousand of your members who won't be

223
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:25,199
Speaker 2: coming for the first four hours of the shift. Do

224
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:29,640
Speaker 2: you know how many will with the life preserving agreement

225
00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:32,920
Speaker 2: you're going to nut out with Saint John, how many

226
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:34,640
Speaker 2: will be on board?

227
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:37,560
Speaker 7: I know we're not into that detail at the moment.

228
00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:41,080
Speaker 2: Is it going to will people die.

229
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:46,760
Speaker 7: We're hoping that people won't die, but they'll certainly be delayed. Ultimately,

230
00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:48,920
Speaker 7: what we would like is the government to step in

231
00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:52,160
Speaker 7: to give more funding because the issue that we're seeing

232
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:55,559
Speaker 7: is if our members don't take action now, is ultimately

233
00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:59,040
Speaker 7: the ambulance service is going to crumble. So although it's

234
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:01,720
Speaker 7: some of this is to do with pay, that ultimately

235
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:04,280
Speaker 7: is to do with them going to work each day

236
00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:06,920
Speaker 7: in the system that's not working and then seeing the

237
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:09,600
Speaker 7: risks if it continues to work in that way.

238
00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:11,840
Speaker 2: Faye, one of our listeners is just text and to say,

239
00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:14,280
Speaker 2: don't call the ambulance, call an uber. They'll get you

240
00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:17,760
Speaker 2: to hospital quicker. Are people going to have to do

241
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:18,520
Speaker 2: stuff like that?

242
00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:22,600
Speaker 7: Yeah, But the sad reality is that that's say on

243
00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:24,600
Speaker 7: a day to day basis at the moment, that's what

244
00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:27,240
Speaker 7: we're hearing that people are like, our members are going

245
00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:29,480
Speaker 7: to people who have been waiting for hours and they

246
00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:31,440
Speaker 7: shouldn't have been waiting for hours.

247
00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:34,560
Speaker 2: Faith, Thanks for your time this morning, Famercan, the National

248
00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:38,960
Speaker 2: Ambulance coordinator for First Union. That strike action due to

249
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:41,440
Speaker 2: take place later this month. Goodness me, I hope the

250
00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:44,240
Speaker 2: uber driv Uber drivers have got a first aid course

251
00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:50,440
Speaker 2: on board. Actually, if you have jumped in an uber

252
00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:53,200
Speaker 2: to get to hospital because the ambulance waits too long,

253
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:55,720
Speaker 2: how did that go for you? Nine two nine two

254
00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:58,200
Speaker 2: is the number text twenty five after five.

255
00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:04,600
Speaker 1: The early edition full show podcast on iHeartRadio powered by

256
00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:05,400
Speaker 1: Newstalks at Me.

257
00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:09,200
Speaker 2: It has just gone twenty seven after five. US stock

258
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:11,880
Speaker 2: markets had a bit of a panic attack overnight. I

259
00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:14,080
Speaker 2: think that's the best way to describe it. Investors have

260
00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 2: been selling off, especially in tech stocks. The US job

261
00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:21,160
Speaker 2: data that came out on Friday seems to have freaked

262
00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:24,760
Speaker 2: the horses. Losses are being clawed back slightly this morning.

263
00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:28,040
Speaker 2: But everyone is on edge. Why well, it's the largest

264
00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:30,520
Speaker 2: economy in the world. It affects us all, and we're

265
00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:33,640
Speaker 2: all sort of teetering on the edge of an economic cliff.

266
00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:35,800
Speaker 2: It feels like at the moment we're all at the

267
00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:39,240
Speaker 2: mercy of our central banks and their rate cut decisions.

268
00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:42,200
Speaker 2: Will they cut, won't they cut? In this case, you've

269
00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:44,960
Speaker 2: got no cut last week from the Fed, and you've

270
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:47,960
Speaker 2: got some bad data, and oh we're going to recession,

271
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:51,440
Speaker 2: and America's going to recession. The US feed obviously didn't

272
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:54,600
Speaker 2: cut and if ours doesn't cut soon, then we'll probably

273
00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:57,240
Speaker 2: have the same issues here. I imagine Bank of England,

274
00:15:57,280 --> 00:15:59,880
Speaker 2: the euro Central Bank, they have cut. Here's the thing

275
00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:02,680
Speaker 2: I was thinking about this morning, when the cuts happen.

276
00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:06,720
Speaker 2: You know, we've got a mortgage at my house we're

277
00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:09,280
Speaker 2: going to be refixing. So when they happen, I'm not

278
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:11,920
Speaker 2: going to be running out and splurging on the credit card.

279
00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:15,960
Speaker 2: You know, There'll be no new TV or couch at

280
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:18,560
Speaker 2: my house. There'll be no new car in the driveway,

281
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:20,640
Speaker 2: and I won't be going to fancy restaurants all the time.

282
00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 2: I won't be going to the clubs and making it

283
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:26,560
Speaker 2: rain cash. Just because the rates have cut. This cost

284
00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:29,280
Speaker 2: of living crisis, coupled with the technical recession that we

285
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 2: went through, it's got me feeling a little sensible. If

286
00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:35,800
Speaker 2: I'm being honest with you, I'm thinking more about saving.

287
00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 2: I'm thinking more about being strategic investing. You never know

288
00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:44,680
Speaker 2: when the next government slash, reserve banks splurge might fuel

289
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:47,160
Speaker 2: the next big thing. You know, the lockdowns, then the

290
00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:50,720
Speaker 2: loose purse strings, the prolonged eye interest rates. So you've

291
00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:53,520
Speaker 2: got to be prepared for stuff. What does that mean

292
00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:57,160
Speaker 2: for retailers who are falling over to their knees all

293
00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:03,040
Speaker 2: around us. I think sadly won't suddenly bounce back once

294
00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:07,280
Speaker 2: Adrian Orr blows his whistle. It'll be a long, hard

295
00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:11,720
Speaker 2: slog yet. Twenty nine after five if you're on news Talk,

296
00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:15,760
Speaker 2: said B. When we come back, an update on how

Speaker 2: many Kiwis are in the Middle East. More mornings about

Speaker 2: Strictly Come Dancing they're getting their first blind dancer. I'll

300
00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:30,120

308
00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:10,359
Speaker 2: He says. His name's Chris mcclolsland. He says, I don't dance,

309
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:13,439
Speaker 2: I haven't danced, I can't dance and I can't see

Speaker 2: to be fun. He's a comedian. He sounds like a

312
00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:23,080
Speaker 2: good sport lost his sight in his twenties, and I

313
00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:25,320
Speaker 2: wonder would it be easier to dance if you had

314
00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:29,520
Speaker 2: danced before with sight as opposed to being blind from

315
00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:33,600
Speaker 2: birth and never having done it with sight. The night

316
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:36,200
Speaker 2: we'll find out. No word yet on whether his partner

317
00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:40,080
Speaker 2: will also be blind. Twenty three away from six lots

318
00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:41,840
Speaker 2: of your feedback this morning, Ryan, the s and P

319
00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:44,320
Speaker 2: five hundred is higher than it was three months ago.

320
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:50,600
Speaker 2: Why would you describe this morning's tumble as turmoil? Says John, John,

321
00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:53,320
Speaker 2: thank you for your for your text. I didn't describe

322
00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:56,840
Speaker 2: it as turmoil because of this reason. I quite deliberately

323
00:18:56,960 --> 00:18:59,800
Speaker 2: described it as a freak out and a panic attack.

324
00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:03,080
Speaker 2: I think they'll recover some of them. More are already,

325
00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:06,800
Speaker 2: James says. The ambulance staff going on strike. James says,

326
00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:08,840
Speaker 2: A player and the team that we played against last

327
00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:11,600
Speaker 2: week in social football broke his leg right in front

328
00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:16,000
Speaker 2: of us. He splintered his leg, got an uber two

329
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:18,399
Speaker 2: minutes around the corner to Auckland Hospital. This was the

330
00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:21,440
Speaker 2: Auckland Grammar turf they were playing on. Because the ambulance

331
00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:25,920
Speaker 2: said it'd be ninety minutes. People are using uber morning, Ryan.

332
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:28,320
Speaker 2: My sister was t boned by a van and in

333
00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:31,640
Speaker 2: her car spun out, all her airbags inflated. She ended

334
00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:35,000
Speaker 2: up in someone's front yard. The guy who hit her

335
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:38,119
Speaker 2: rung an ambulance. They said they were busy, so she

336
00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:40,720
Speaker 2: rang our brother who lives closer to pick her up

337
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:45,040
Speaker 2: and take her to the hospital. W TF only had

338
00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:48,000
Speaker 2: bruising in shot, but geez, she could have had a

339
00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:50,440
Speaker 2: heart attack. This is in lower Heart by the way

340
00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:55,040
Speaker 2: from Erica. Goodness me, I just think we need to

341
00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:58,320
Speaker 2: forget the ambulance drivers. We just need to train the

342
00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:03,840
Speaker 2: uber drivers as paramedics. Simple, easy solution. Twenty two away

343
00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:07,480
Speaker 2: from Sex Rayon Bridge, Colum Proctors and Dunedin for us

344
00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:11,000
Speaker 2: this morning, Callum. The second phase of the coronial inquest

345
00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:15,120
Speaker 2: into the death of this toddler in Gore starts today.

346
00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:18,960
Speaker 8: Morning Ryan, it does, and more experts are set to

347
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:21,880
Speaker 8: give evidence from today. This is three year old Lachland Jones,

348
00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:25,280
Speaker 8: who died in twenty nineteen, found in a council oxidation

349
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:28,840
Speaker 8: pond about a kilometer from his home. Police concluded he

350
00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:31,879
Speaker 8: walked there himself, as father Paul Jones, though believes he

351
00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:35,879
Speaker 8: was murdered. His lawyer put allegations of foul play and

352
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:38,640
Speaker 8: neglect to witnesses in the first part of the inquest.

353
00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:42,919
Speaker 8: Forensic pathologists and a child behavior expert will be called

354
00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:47,120
Speaker 8: in the second phase, while half brother Jonathan Scott's also

355
00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:50,560
Speaker 8: expected to be recalled. The inquest will last for two weeks.

356
00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:52,359
Speaker 2: Callum, how's your weather today?

357
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:55,159
Speaker 8: It's pretty good with a norwester today, so it's a

358
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:56,920
Speaker 8: bit warmer, fine and a higher fourteen.

359
00:20:57,280 --> 00:20:59,600
Speaker 2: Great, Thank you, Claire Sherwoods and christ Church Claire, good

360
00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:00,120
Speaker 2: morning to you.

361
00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 9: Good morning.

362
00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:05,760
Speaker 2: The Canterbury School and the five year weight for a redevelopment.

363
00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:10,160
Speaker 10: Yes, now this is Alasmeir College, so plans to replace

364
00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:13,040
Speaker 10: the existing grounds out there by modern spaces was actually

365
00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:16,000
Speaker 10: announced back in twenty nineteen, but there have been massive

366
00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:19,560
Speaker 10: delays because of groundwater problems. It's now set to be

367
00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:23,879
Speaker 10: completed by twenty twenty eight, the first stage beginning this week.

368
00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:27,480
Speaker 10: Acting Principal Anthony French says the new build should cater

369
00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:30,600
Speaker 10: for seven hundred and fifty students. That's about a thirty

370
00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:33,800
Speaker 10: percent increase on its current role. He now say there

371
00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:37,919
Speaker 10: are significant subdivision consents being granted in the area around

372
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:40,560
Speaker 10: Leiston and so there's belief the school will be at

373
00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:42,320
Speaker 10: capacity by the time it.

374
00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:44,360
Speaker 2: Is opened, right and weather clear.

375
00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:47,480
Speaker 10: Frosty again here in christ Church light winds are high

376
00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:49,600
Speaker 10: of twelve with minus three overnight.

377
00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:52,080
Speaker 2: Thank you a man in Wellington Max Toll has managed

378
00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:56,560
Speaker 2: to just stomp on those silly raised crossings Max well.

379
00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:59,119
Speaker 3: I have inz TA has really a lot of controversial

380
00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:02,720
Speaker 3: work being done around this, but perhaps this Thornton Key

381
00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:06,639
Speaker 3: plan is number one businesses dyeing roads being torn up

382
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:09,840
Speaker 3: before old water pipes are factored in, and now yes,

383
00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:14,240
Speaker 3: NZTA pulling funding for those pesky raised the pedestrian crossings,

384
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:18,840
Speaker 3: crossings that countless organizations had opposed, including emergency officials who

385
00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:22,520
Speaker 3: said it would hinder ambulances. So you'd think that would

386
00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:27,360
Speaker 3: be that, but council documents, essentially Council advice now recommends

387
00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:31,959
Speaker 3: councilors still go ahead with the plan by get this

388
00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:35,919
Speaker 3: going more into debt to stump up over three hundred

389
00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:41,160
Speaker 3: thousand dollars. You think that would be insanity personified if

390
00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:43,760
Speaker 3: it did happen. Several councilors tell us look no way

391
00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:47,280
Speaker 3: on their watch. But also worth adding surprise surprise, fresh

392
00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:50,320
Speaker 3: leak popping up on Thornton Key yesterday maybe is feared

393
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:52,040
Speaker 3: it might have to be ripped up all over again.

394
00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:56,040
Speaker 2: Anyway, I just don't even I can't even talk Max.

395
00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:59,879
Speaker 2: I'm so angry. Thankfully neighbors here, she can come down

396
00:22:59,920 --> 00:23:02,240
Speaker 2: and second that's Max hold mall or whether today Max

397
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:06,280
Speaker 2: fine northerlys a higher thirteen. Thank you nevers here, Hi.

398
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:08,640
Speaker 9: Neva Hi, it's great seeing you mad. I've never seen

399
00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:10,600
Speaker 9: you met, jumping up and down in your chair. But

400
00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:12,840
Speaker 9: you're quite right. You've got good reason to let outrage.

401
00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:14,720
Speaker 2: You want to just hit something exactly.

402
00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:16,480
Speaker 9: You know, you should be running the country or you

403
00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:17,879
Speaker 9: should be running Wellington.

404
00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:24,000
Speaker 2: Running the country. What's happening in Auckland today?

405
00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:27,439
Speaker 9: Well this will rip united too, this story yere So

406
00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:30,040
Speaker 9: Auckland Council has been taken to court by its Marty

407
00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:33,119
Speaker 9: Advisory Board. Now this is over the appointment of a

408
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:36,320
Speaker 9: new chairman to its water business. Now the Independent Marty

409
00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:39,400
Speaker 9: Statutary Board is seeking a review in the High Court

410
00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:42,159
Speaker 9: in Auckland. Now this is to overturn the appointment of

411
00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:46,240
Speaker 9: Jeff Hunt as chairman of water Care. Now It's chairman,

412
00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:49,760
Speaker 9: David Taipati says they believe the decision to point Hunt

413
00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:54,400
Speaker 9: was procedurally unlawful. So he says that a panel unanimously

414
00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:57,560
Speaker 9: recommended a Marty candidate for the role, but then Councilor

415
00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:00,879
Speaker 9: Morris Williamson he passed an amendment behind fine closed doors

416
00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:03,359
Speaker 9: for Hunt to get the role. So Tai Party says

417
00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:06,800
Speaker 9: it's not about the person but the way they were appointed.

418
00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:11,080
Speaker 9: So yes of argie bargie. More to come on that one.

419
00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:12,480
Speaker 2: We're the today Neva Party.

424
00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:26,960
Speaker 2: no uber in Tirau or Tito. We do have a

425
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:29,800
Speaker 2: milk factory. Maybe the milk tanker drivers could be trained

426
00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:33,600
Speaker 2: as ambulance officers. It's just gone seventeen away from six.

427

Speaker 2: Hoskin is going to come in and hold my hand

440
00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:15,000
Speaker 2: for the experience. Bangladesh. We were talking about this yesterday.

441
00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:17,960
Speaker 2: The riots, the protests over the jobs for the boys

442
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:20,560
Speaker 2: because there's a quota for the civil service. Anyway, they

443
00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:25,200
Speaker 2: turned into basically anti government protests. Now they have got

444
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:28,439
Speaker 2: their wish. They have forced the Prime Minister to flee.

445
00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:33,080
Speaker 2: She's resigned and fled. She's gone to India. Nearly three

446
00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:36,280
Speaker 2: hundred people have died since July and they have stormed.

447
00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:43,240
Speaker 2: The protesters stormed her official residence, looting, smashing cars and furniture, celebrating.

448
00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:57,600
Speaker 2: Have a listen. They are absolutely trashing the official residence.

449
00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:00,520
Speaker 2: There was even footage of them eating the curry in

450
00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:03,840
Speaker 2: the kitchen that the chefs had left. Anyway, the head

451
00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:07,040
Speaker 2: of the Army says an interim government will be formed

452
00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:09,560
Speaker 2: by the end of the day. No word yet on

453
00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:10,760
Speaker 2: who will actually lead it.

454
00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:15,480

456
00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:21,640
Speaker 2: Donna Demaya's our Australia correspondent this morning. Your terror threat

457
00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:24,560
Speaker 2: level is up, Donna, Yes, So the.

458
00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:28,600
Speaker 4: Prime Minister Anthony Abernezi has revealed that Australia's national terror

459
00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:32,600
Speaker 4: threat is now probable as a threat of violence grows.

460
00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:35,160
Speaker 4: We also heard from Asia, which is the nation's peak

461
00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:39,000
Speaker 4: security intelligence association, since the chance of a terrorist attack

462
00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:42,400
Speaker 4: in Australia is now probable, it's concerned about the rising

463
00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:47,800
Speaker 4: threat of politically motivated violence. Now the table of threat

464
00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:49,479
Speaker 4: levels you might want to know is at the very

465
00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:53,879
Speaker 4: bottom it's deemed not expected, then possible, where now on

466
00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:57,080
Speaker 4: probable it can also lift to expected. And in the

467
00:26:57,119 --> 00:27:01,040
Speaker 4: top of that table is certain. So there is now

468
00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:05,040
Speaker 4: deemed a greater than fifty percent chance of an onshore

469
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:06,920
Speaker 4: attack in Australia.

470
00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:07,520
Speaker 5: Now.

471
00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:09,520
Speaker 4: The announcement came as the PM was flanked by the

472
00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:13,040
Speaker 4: ASIO Director Mike Burgess and Attorney General Mark Drafers. The

473
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:16,600
Speaker 4: PM says there's no evidence of a specific and immediate attack,

474
00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:19,560
Speaker 4: but he does say that also that probable does not

475
00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:24,239
Speaker 4: actually mean inevitable and there's no actual intelligence about an

476
00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:27,280
Speaker 4: imminent threat or danger, but there is a need for

477
00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:31,760
Speaker 4: a higher level of preparedness for agencies and alertness for

478
00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:34,359
Speaker 4: the public. Now, as you know, we've seen a global

479
00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:38,640
Speaker 4: rise in politically motivated violence and extremism, as that's been

480
00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:42,720
Speaker 4: put to Australians as well, so Asio says it's principal

481
00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:47,240
Speaker 4: security concerns do now involve the fact that Australia is

482
00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:52,760
Speaker 4: more more volatile and more unpredictable, and hence this upgrade

483
00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:56,840
Speaker 4: to the terror threat being deemed probable. We also heard

484
00:27:56,840 --> 00:28:00,159
Speaker 4: from the Opposition Peter Dutton and the Leader, I should say,

485
00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:02,720
Speaker 4: and he said that all Australians should pay attention about

486
00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:08,080
Speaker 4: what is happening in society. We have heard in some

487
00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:10,479
Speaker 4: way a little bit sort of calming because as he

488
00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:12,720
Speaker 4: also says, you know, we have to be aware but

489
00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:15,600
Speaker 4: not afraid. And yet we hear it not in much detail,

490
00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:17,960
Speaker 4: but there have been eight incidents in four months that

491
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:20,960
Speaker 4: have been disrupted by the agencies. It was either an

492
00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:25,119
Speaker 4: act of terrorism or investigated for links to terrorism, and

493
00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:28,760
Speaker 4: involved are some young people, some as young as fourteen

494
00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:30,560
Speaker 4: to twenty one years of age.

495
00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:30,960
Speaker 9: US.

496
00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:33,320
Speaker 2: It's hard to know with that language. Don't know whether

497
00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:35,399
Speaker 2: to be freaked out or not, but it sounds like

498
00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:38,080
Speaker 2: they're just being cautious at this time. Done a dem our,

499
00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:40,640
Speaker 2: Australia Correspondent. It is eleven away.

500
00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:42,160
Speaker 5: From six Brian Bridge.

501
00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:45,400
Speaker 2: You want to get that women's track cycling gold Medal

502
00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:48,000
Speaker 2: race coming your way very shortly? Right now, Let's call

503
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:51,720
Speaker 2: it what it is. It's an education crisis. Just twenty

504
00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:55,040
Speaker 2: two percent of year eight students are at the expected

505
00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:58,360
Speaker 2: standard for mass. That means roughly eighty percent are not.

506
00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:01,479
Speaker 2: And the government wants to fly eight twenty so that

507
00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:05,000
Speaker 2: eighty percent are actually achieving. They've got new workbooks coming

508
00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:09,040
Speaker 2: next year, they've got teacher upskilling. The ERRO is being

509
00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:12,120
Speaker 2: overhauled to focus on outcomes and achievement. The Ministry of

510
00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:15,840
Speaker 2: Education will intervene earlier and more often. Is it going

511
00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:18,880
Speaker 2: to work? Doctor Michael Johnston is with the New Zealand Initiative.

512
00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:21,880
Speaker 2: He's a senior fellow there and has worked in education

513
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:25,160
Speaker 2: most of his life. Michael, good morning, good morning. How

514
00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:27,480
Speaker 2: are you doing very well? Thank you? Are they on

515
00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:29,120
Speaker 2: the right track with what they're doing.

516
00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:30,760
Speaker 3: Well.

517
00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:34,320
Speaker 11: They definitely need to do something like this, as you said,

518
00:29:34,920 --> 00:29:37,560
Speaker 11: or you could describe it as a crisis, but actually

519
00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:40,840
Speaker 11: there's no indication from these data that things have got worse.

520
00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:44,840
Speaker 11: It's probably just revealed what's been there for quite some time.

521
00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:51,320
Speaker 11: The way in which they've tested maths and other curriculum

522
00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:55,520
Speaker 11: areas has changed. And what we're catching now kids who

523
00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:58,680
Speaker 11: are behind the year level that they're at, Whereas in

524
00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:02,680
Speaker 11: the past measured how far whether they were at the

525
00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:06,640
Speaker 11: right phase, which bands of years. So we've got finer

526
00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:11,480
Speaker 11: grained data here, and so it's likely that things haven't

527
00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:14,040
Speaker 11: actually got worse, that they've been this bad for a while.

528
00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:17,360
Speaker 2: How long are we talking decades?

529
00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:23,760
Speaker 11: We don't know exactly, Quite likely a decade or more.

530
00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:27,800
Speaker 2: So if that's the case, should we should be that worried?

531
00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:29,800
Speaker 5: Oh?

532
00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:32,240
Speaker 11: I think we should be worried when only just a

533
00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:35,440
Speaker 11: bit more than a fifth of year eight students are

534
00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:39,920
Speaker 11: meeting the standard according to the curriculum. So yeah, I

535
00:30:39,960 --> 00:30:43,120
Speaker 11: think the action that the Minister for Education and the

536
00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:49,240
Speaker 11: Prime Minister have announced is absolutely necessary. Will it be enough, well,

537
00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:54,320
Speaker 11: time will tell, But I think that it's encouraging that

538
00:30:54,400 --> 00:31:01,000
Speaker 11: they're introducing these workbooks and teacher guides. Just to be clear,

539
00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:05,480
Speaker 11: my understanding is that those books will be aligned with

540
00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:09,600
Speaker 11: the new curriculum that's coming next year, so the publishing

541
00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:13,680
Speaker 11: companies will do some work on them to reconfigure them

542
00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:15,120
Speaker 11: to match the curriculum.

543
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:17,840
Speaker 2: I spoke to a principle yesterday and he didn't have

544
00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:20,120
Speaker 2: high hopes for this, first of all, that they would

545
00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:22,720
Speaker 2: even get the booklets. But second of all, he said,

546
00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:27,000
Speaker 2: will they cater to my ever increasingly diverse range of students,

547
00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:31,880
Speaker 2: including neuro diverse students in different English, second language, all

548
00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:36,000
Speaker 2: these other things? Will they do that? And is that

549
00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:39,680
Speaker 2: a big problem for the education system?

550
00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:42,480
Speaker 11: Well, first of all, let me say that I think

551
00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:45,040
Speaker 11: it is a big problem for the education system, and

552
00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:48,520
Speaker 11: I would acknowledge the huge challenges that teachers are facing

553
00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:52,400
Speaker 11: at the moment with behavior in our classrooms. There was

554
00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:54,640
Speaker 11: a report, I think it was from the OECD that

555
00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:58,200
Speaker 11: said that the disorder in our classrooms is amongst the

556
00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:02,400
Speaker 11: worst in the worst in the world. Neurodiversity seems to

557
00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:06,000
Speaker 11: be on the increase for reasons that are not fully understood.

558
00:32:07,360 --> 00:32:12,640
Speaker 11: I certainly acknowledge the challenges that teachers face, and I

559
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:16,800
Speaker 11: think more will be required to meet that target of

560
00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:19,760
Speaker 11: eighty percent at curriculum by the end of year eight

561
00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:21,040
Speaker 11: in twenty thirty.

562
00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:23,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, we've still got a long way to go. Doctor

563
00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:25,240
Speaker 2: Michael Johnson, thank you very much for your time. He's

564
00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:27,600
Speaker 2: a senior fellow at the New Zealand Initiative talking about

565
00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:31,800
Speaker 2: the government's crackdown on education. Seven away from six. Coming

566
00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:34,440
Speaker 2: up next, we've got the track cycling that women's team

567
00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:37,440
Speaker 2: going for gold. Are also an update on what's happening

568
00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:38,680
Speaker 2: in the UK with the riots.

569
00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:41,440
Speaker 1: The news you need this morning and the in depth

570
00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:45,440
Speaker 1: analysis early edition with Ryan Bridge and Smith City, New

571
00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:47,680
Speaker 1: Zealand's furniture beds and a playing store.

572
00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:50,640
Speaker 2: News Talk said, be five to six, you're on news Talk,

573
00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:53,360
Speaker 2: said be kirsta of the British Prime Minister has spoken

574
00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:55,800
Speaker 2: about the rioting over in the UK. They've held a

575
00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:58,880
Speaker 2: Cobra meeting which is like their situation room. Have a listen.

576
00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:04,400
Speaker 12: Whatever the parent motivation, this is not protest. It is

577
00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:08,840
Speaker 12: pure violence and we will not tolerate attacks on mosques

578
00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:13,160
Speaker 12: or our Muslim communities. So the full force of the

579
00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:17,000
Speaker 12: law will be visited on all those who are identified

580
00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:19,240
Speaker 12: as having taken part in these activities.

581
00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:23,440
Speaker 2: They've decided that a standing army of police specialist officers

582
00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:26,680
Speaker 2: will be ready to be deployed, which gives the impression

583
00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:28,960
Speaker 2: that the army is involved. It's not. It's just police officers.

584
00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:31,840
Speaker 2: Four minutes away from six now, and we're very excited

585
00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:35,440
Speaker 2: because the women's team is the track cycling team is

586
00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:39,000
Speaker 2: going for gold and Mike Hoskins and we're canceling the ads,

587
00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:42,240
Speaker 2: breaking your usual programming. Good morning, Mike, morning, Good see you.

588
00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:46,400
Speaker 13: It's moderately exciting because the British, of course have set

589
00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:48,720
Speaker 13: the world record right in the lead up to this,

590
00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:52,640
Speaker 13: so we set it momentarily in our previous race, so

591
00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:56,000
Speaker 13: that looked good. So this could be fast trak is

592
00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:57,440
Speaker 13: the other thing you need to know. That's why we will.

593
00:33:57,480 --> 00:33:59,880
Speaker 13: Records are falling, so it's a fast track and so

594
00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:03,200
Speaker 13: we set the record. They then came along Great Britain

595
00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:05,440
Speaker 13: this is and then they set the record in their heat,

596
00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:08,680
Speaker 13: so they beat us in time. So it's all in order.

597
00:34:08,680 --> 00:34:10,120
Speaker 13: You have to think that's going to be very tight

598
00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:10,920
Speaker 13: and on.

599
00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:14,560
Speaker 2: Perhaps more than moderately exciting, even Mike, it could be.

600
00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:18,839
Speaker 13: It could be phenomenally exciting. But then again, we've got

601
00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:21,600
Speaker 13: but Butcher he's going to be on the program as well.

602
00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:24,560
Speaker 13: There's some debate about the sport. Should I go there?

603
00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:27,040
Speaker 13: When I interview him, Well, yeah, I mean you should.

604
00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:29,439
Speaker 13: It's the first time, it's at the Olympics. Yeah, he's

605
00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:32,800
Speaker 13: the first when it's his first Olympics once, I guess

606
00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:35,160
Speaker 13: the brilliant thing is that if you're the first, you

607
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:36,280
Speaker 13: will always be the first.

608
00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:36,840
Speaker 2: True.

609
00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:39,200
Speaker 13: So he's never been to the Olympics before. So he's

610
00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:42,520
Speaker 13: at his first Olympics in the first event and he

611
00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:45,239
Speaker 13: wins the goal first champion. You can never take that

612
00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:46,160
Speaker 13: away from somebody.

613
00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:49,320
Speaker 2: That's pretty cool. I mean watching it, it's great to watch.

614
00:34:49,600 --> 00:34:52,000
Speaker 2: In fact, I would sooner watch that than I was

615
00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:52,720
Speaker 2: the cycling.

616
00:34:52,840 --> 00:34:55,160
Speaker 13: That's not the criteria though, is it really? My wife

617
00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:56,680
Speaker 13: said to me, and I think she was probably right.

618
00:34:56,719 --> 00:34:58,840
Speaker 13: She said, that sort of thing is what you do

619
00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:01,560
