1 00:00:01,960 --> 00:00:04,680 Speaker 1: Pressing the newsmakers to get the real story. 2 00:00:04,920 --> 00:00:08,800 Speaker 2: It's Heather Duplicity Allen drive with one New Zealand Let's 3 00:00:08,840 --> 00:00:09,600 Speaker 2: get connected. 4 00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:10,800 Speaker 1: Youth Talk said, be. 5 00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:16,080 Speaker 3: Hey, good afternoon, Welcome to the show. Coming up today, 6 00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:17,360 Speaker 3: We're going to have a chat to Lewis sa Wall, 7 00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:19,720 Speaker 3: a former Silver ferner and a former Labor Party MP, 8 00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:23,360 Speaker 3: in support of TJ Pedanada's political hacker. It looks like 9 00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:26,319 Speaker 3: hospitals and not accepting referrals so that they don't blow 10 00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:29,080 Speaker 3: out their waiting list times. It's obviously gaming the system. 11 00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:32,040 Speaker 3: We'll talk to the Association of Salary Medical Specialists and 12 00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:36,080 Speaker 3: Police Minister Mark Mitchell on the new Central Auckland Police station. 13 00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:38,160 Speaker 1: Just announced Heather Duplessy Allen. 14 00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:40,680 Speaker 3: So it looks like the rugby bosses may have already 15 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:42,920 Speaker 3: realized how big a mistake they made with that hacker, 16 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:45,599 Speaker 3: because we've now learned that they've cut the political bit 17 00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:48,360 Speaker 3: that TJ Pedinada did. They've cut that out of the 18 00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:50,479 Speaker 3: version of the hacker that they've uploaded to their social 19 00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:53,000 Speaker 3: media accounts. So if you went onto their install, Twitter 20 00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 3: or whatever, you wouldn't even know necessarily that he'd done that. 21 00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:59,640 Speaker 3: And if they have done that because they realized that 22 00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:01,560 Speaker 3: they made a mistake to say yes to it. They 23 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:05,399 Speaker 3: are right, big mistake from the All Blacks, Big mistake 24 00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:08,160 Speaker 3: from Scott robertson personally saying yes to TJ when TJ 25 00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:10,080 Speaker 3: said he was going to do this. Now, before we 26 00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:11,640 Speaker 3: get into why I think it's a big mistake, let's 27 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:15,920 Speaker 3: just clear something up first. TJ is entitled, like we 28 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:18,280 Speaker 3: all are to have a political opinion, and I don't 29 00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:20,440 Speaker 3: think anybody's going to be surprised that he would come 30 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:22,760 Speaker 3: down with this particular political opinion, right, that he would 31 00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:24,759 Speaker 3: be in support of the hikoy because we know where 32 00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 3: he stands on things. I mean, he's already publicly supported Ihumato, 33 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:31,240 Speaker 3: and he's publicly supported the Wellington women's team when they 34 00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:33,880 Speaker 3: did their anti government hucker. So what a surprise. Okay, 35 00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:36,880 Speaker 3: this is not a TJ problem. This is an All 36 00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:39,360 Speaker 3: Blacks problem, because the All Blacks are not in a 37 00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:42,000 Speaker 3: position where they can afford to lose fans and viewers 38 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:45,880 Speaker 3: and piss people off, especially when so many of us 39 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:48,680 Speaker 3: are already talking about how much we prefer watching the 40 00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:51,640 Speaker 3: Warriors at the moment to watching rugby union. The problem 41 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:54,240 Speaker 3: that the All blacks have got in particular here is 42 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:57,560 Speaker 3: that I reckon that they're most rusted on the viewers 43 00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 3: would be Heartland New Zealand. So we're talking about farms, 44 00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 3: rural communities, old blokes who feel really loyal to the game. 45 00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 3: And I reckon quite a few of those rusted on 46 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:11,919 Speaker 3: view as I just described to you, would actually disagree 47 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:14,760 Speaker 3: with TJ as to whether or not they support the 48 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:18,440 Speaker 3: Hekoy And given how intense this Treaty Principles and Hekoy 49 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:20,359 Speaker 3: debate is, I reckon quite a few of them might 50 00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 3: just feel kind of a bit annoyed with him that 51 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,119 Speaker 3: he's presumed that he represents the views of the whole 52 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:28,799 Speaker 3: country with that hakka, because he doesn't. And this may 53 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:31,080 Speaker 3: be a surprise to TJR. I don't know, but if 54 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 3: he goes and has a look at the most recent polling, 55 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 3: he will find that almost twice as many key we 56 00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:40,800 Speaker 3: actually like Seymour's principles idea as oppose it. So the 57 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:43,400 Speaker 3: support that the he KOI has is probably a lot 58 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 3: less than the support that David Seymour has based on 59 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 3: that polling anyway, So for TJ well known anti meat, 60 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 3: anti government chap, no problem at all with what he's done, right, 61 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:55,639 Speaker 3: because he's heading off in a new career and his 62 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 3: water off a ducks back and who cares. He's made 63 00:02:57,320 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 3: a statement and we're all talking about him. He's probably 64 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,360 Speaker 3: stoked about that. For New Zealand Rugby though, fighting to 65 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:06,200 Speaker 3: retain its audience, and for Scott Robertson fighting to prove 66 00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 3: himself as the new All Blacks coach. Big mistake, Heather 67 00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:13,680 Speaker 3: do for see el Welcome to the way in nine 68 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:16,320 Speaker 3: two ninety two is the text number, and of course 69 00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:18,120 Speaker 3: standard text fees apply. And I'll tell you in a 70 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 3: minute why we're going to talk to Luisa Wallf so 71 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 3: stand by for that. 72 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:21,240 Speaker 4: Just quickly. 73 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 3: On another subject, there is yet another call for the 74 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:26,920 Speaker 3: government to tackle obesity rates, and this time from the 75 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:30,240 Speaker 3: Helen Clark Foundation. Now the Helen Clark Foundations released a 76 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 3: report today which reckons more than a third of Kiwi 77 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 3: adults are too fat, and they reckon the way to 78 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:38,840 Speaker 3: solve this is to shift the conversation quote from the 79 00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 3: individual to the wider food environment we're exposed to every 80 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 3: day now. Dave Latally is a community leader and the 81 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 3: founder of the BBM Motivation Program. 82 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:48,800 Speaker 5: Dave Hello Hey, they how's it going. 83 00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm very well. Thank you. Do you agree with him? 84 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 3: This is no longer an individual problem. It is now 85 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 3: a government problem. 86 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:55,320 Speaker 5: You know. 87 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 6: It's something that I've been saying for years. You know, 88 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 6: I keep banging on about this. It's you know, choice, 89 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 6: it implies equal starting points, and a lot of the 90 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 6: environments that, especially in the areas that we're serving, there's 91 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 6: no equity there. We're surrounded by every single bad choice 92 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 6: that's available to us. 93 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 5: It just makes it a lot harder. 94 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 6: But you know, it's why around education, what we do 95 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:19,080 Speaker 6: is what needs to happen. It's government policy and also 96 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 6: community working together. 97 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 7: Yeah. 98 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:24,719 Speaker 3: Look, I mean tell me something, do people, regardless of 99 00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:26,720 Speaker 3: where you come from, what environment you're in stuff, Do 100 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 3: we not all know already that if you put KFC 101 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 3: in your mouth, you're going to get fat, but if 102 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 3: you put a broccoli in your mouth, you're going to 103 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:34,160 Speaker 3: be healthy. 104 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 6: Oh I think I think most people would know that. 105 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:41,280 Speaker 6: But at the same time, you know, there's a lot 106 00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:43,719 Speaker 6: of knowledge that's not being passed down to children anymore. 107 00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:46,599 Speaker 6: You know, it's not just people who are just too lazy, 108 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 6: but it's people who are working multiple jobs. 109 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:49,440 Speaker 5: Trying to keep the lights on. 110 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 1: And that's the. 111 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 3: Problem though, Dave. I mean, because we learn about the food, 112 00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 3: we learn about the food triangle at school, right like 113 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 3: year gosh eight or nine or something like that. Isn't 114 00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:00,680 Speaker 3: the truth that when you are wealthy, you've got a 115 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:02,560 Speaker 3: lot more time, so you can make yourself a nice 116 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:04,920 Speaker 3: stur ry for yourself in the family. But if you're poor, 117 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:07,640 Speaker 3: you don't have as much time. You're traveling more, you're 118 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:10,279 Speaker 3: working longer hours to make ends meat, it's a little 119 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:12,919 Speaker 3: bit more chaotic, so you rely on takeaways. 120 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:13,720 Speaker 5: One hundred one hundred percent. 121 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 3: Now, how do we get around there? 122 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 1: Poor? 123 00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 5: You're not only you're poor, your time poor. 124 00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:18,600 Speaker 3: That's the most important thing. 125 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 6: We've helped kids that you know this mum reached out 126 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 6: to me late one night, just finished work one in 127 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,359 Speaker 6: the morning, reached out on Facebook. I happened to be awake, 128 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 6: ask me to help her fifteen year old son who 129 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 6: weighs two hundred and thirty kilos. 130 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 5: Sure, they're the. 131 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:32,599 Speaker 6: Ones doing the cooking for the family because the parents 132 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:33,599 Speaker 6: aren't there, they're working. 133 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:37,040 Speaker 5: So it's just I mean, it's a massive problem. 134 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:39,240 Speaker 6: But what we've got to do is I think is 135 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:42,280 Speaker 6: these these companies, these sugar companies and these fast food 136 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 6: companies need to be you know, the most profitable places 137 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 6: are all in the poorest areas. I think then they 138 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:47,360 Speaker 6: should be made to. 139 00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 1: Good days in these communities. 140 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 3: But then if the problem is that people are time 141 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:53,159 Speaker 3: poor so they don't have the time to go to 142 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 3: the supermarket and buy the good food and then cock 143 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 3: the good food, then you know, putting a sugar tax 144 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:00,839 Speaker 3: on is only going to make their bills more expensive. 145 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 3: Limiting advertising is not going to change anything. How do 146 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:05,920 Speaker 3: we how do we actually help people then to get 147 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:07,960 Speaker 3: the healthy food into their days when their days are 148 00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 3: too full. 149 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 6: Invest in community program It's much like ours where we've 150 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:13,240 Speaker 6: seen the results. I mean with that kid he lost 151 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 6: thirty kilos to. 152 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 1: Us, how did you do it? 153 00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 6: Educated him him and his brother and his sisters. We 154 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 6: educate and how to cook healthy on a budget, how 155 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:24,800 Speaker 6: to shop healthy on a budget. They've done the cooking. 156 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 6: That's how you break cycles. Now, it's not it's not 157 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:29,640 Speaker 6: an immediate fix. This is but we can't we can't 158 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 6: look at the short term. This is long term issues 159 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:33,159 Speaker 6: we've got to look at so that things are better 160 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:34,039 Speaker 6: for our grandchildren. 161 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 3: So so in that case, they actually did have people, 162 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 3: the kids in the house, who had a little bit 163 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 3: of time. But the problem is the kids didn't know 164 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 3: what to do. 165 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:45,160 Speaker 5: So he started schools. 166 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 6: It's just investing in programs that work alongside, you know, 167 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 6: like just I know, when's the last time he drove through. 168 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:55,159 Speaker 5: Mayota Town Center or Tatta it is. 169 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,680 Speaker 6: It's a fast it's a health food dees at the 170 00:06:58,760 --> 00:06:59,680 Speaker 6: fastest swamp. 171 00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 5: It's a disgrace. 172 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:05,320 Speaker 6: So it's a lot different than driving through Remota or 173 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 6: where I see you sometimes. 174 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:07,880 Speaker 3: A ponds of me, Well, what if we got on 175 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 3: pondsib We've got one one KFC on pons and be 176 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 3: drag and that's today. Yeah, yeah, I mean it's a 177 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 3: fair point that you may hey, listen, Dave on another subject, though, 178 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 3: I'll tell you what's going to take off is the 179 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:22,680 Speaker 3: idea that maybe we start giving people ozmpic jabs because 180 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 3: you know, it's expensive, but it's a hell of a 181 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:27,560 Speaker 3: lot lot less expensive than dealing with really really fat 182 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 3: people in the health system. What do you reckon. 183 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:33,320 Speaker 6: I've seen I've met people that it works. I'm look, 184 00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 6: it's still it's still out for me. Look, I still 185 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 6: think those options. It's like the optic gatric bypass. Those 186 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:42,680 Speaker 6: are options, but they shouldn't be the main option or 187 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:45,360 Speaker 6: the only option, because they don't break cycles, they don't 188 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 6: educate the children. That's what we've got to do here 189 00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 6: for long term results. I mean, there was an obesity clinic. 190 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 6: The problem with the system is they always invest in 191 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 6: top down, never bottom up. They invested a few million 192 00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:58,440 Speaker 6: dollars in a two year pilot in obesity clinic to 193 00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 6: give people optly fast to get them skinny enough to 194 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 6: get the operation, but they still might not get the 195 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 6: operation because they either can't afford it or they might 196 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:08,240 Speaker 6: not get funded it. Where the program like ours from 197 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 6: the Couch gets two hundred and sixteen thousand, Like this 198 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 6: is where they always go wrong. They always look at 199 00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:15,040 Speaker 6: it from the top down, never bottom Uney. 200 00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:17,120 Speaker 3: Dave, listen, thanks for talking to us. I really appreciate it. 201 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 3: Matere's Dave Lataley, the founder of BBM Motivation. So the 202 00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 3: reason we're going to talk to Luisa Wall and let 203 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,400 Speaker 3: me just read this text. Heather, my hobby and I 204 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 3: went grocery shopping today and he normally buys Recks Owner. Now, 205 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:29,720 Speaker 3: this is the under arm that has the All Black 206 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 3: fern on it, but today he chose not to because 207 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,319 Speaker 3: of what TJ did. TJ should never have done what 208 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:37,160 Speaker 3: he did. If I was a sponsor, I'd be liverd Michelle, 209 00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:39,839 Speaker 3: thank you. We're having a debate at the moment as 210 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 3: to whether this is like, is this actually really going 211 00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 3: to push people enough to turn the all Blacks off? 212 00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:46,440 Speaker 3: I mean, I think it's slow attrition, Like I'm kind 213 00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 3: of to be honest, like, if I take myself as 214 00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:51,320 Speaker 3: an example, I'm over rugby union. I'm really just hanging 215 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 3: in there for the All Blacks tests and that's the 216 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:54,760 Speaker 3: last of it. But they probably don't need to push 217 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:56,959 Speaker 3: me too much before I just turn it off, stop watching, 218 00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:59,760 Speaker 3: and start watching the Warriors instead. So just wonder how 219 00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 3: much more, like, how far can they push you before 220 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:06,000 Speaker 3: you're like, nah, not interested in new people anymore. And 221 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:07,360 Speaker 3: is it going to have anything to do with something 222 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 3: as political as this. You're welcome to let me know 223 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:11,559 Speaker 3: nineteen nineteen, because that's a debate we're having here in 224 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 3: the office. So the reason we're going to talk to 225 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:17,480 Speaker 3: Lewisa Wall is because Luisa Wall you'll know her obviously 226 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:19,880 Speaker 3: as a Labor Party MP, which was also a former 227 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:22,400 Speaker 3: Black Fern and a former silver Fern, and so she 228 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:25,439 Speaker 3: has interest in both politics and sport and she was 229 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:29,200 Speaker 3: very happy with what she saw TJ do. She reckons 230 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:31,040 Speaker 3: what the all Blacks have done? Ends it are and 231 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:33,360 Speaker 3: those guys by editing out the political but is a 232 00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 3: form of censorship? Is she not happy about it now? 233 00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:38,040 Speaker 3: So she's going to be on with us after five 234 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 3: sixteen past four. 235 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 2: Who will take the White House results and analysis of 236 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:44,680 Speaker 2: the US election? 237 00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:48,840 Speaker 1: On Heather Duplessy Alan Drive with One New Zealand Let's get. 238 00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:53,599 Speaker 2: Connected the news talk sa'd bess the board with the 239 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:58,560 Speaker 2: new tap app downloaded today Ri eighteen bed responsibly well, 240 00:09:58,600 --> 00:09:59,080 Speaker 2: I asked the. 241 00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:03,320 Speaker 3: Question hither I I canceled my Sky subscription today because 242 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 3: sport is no place for politics, particularly when you have 243 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:07,960 Speaker 3: a group of people talking about unity, but what they 244 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:10,440 Speaker 3: really mean is unity of only one side. Goodbye Sky. 245 00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:11,679 Speaker 7: So that was it. 246 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:14,480 Speaker 3: That's what it took nineteen past four And with me 247 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:18,040 Speaker 3: now is Adam Cooper Sports Talk hoost he cuops hey. Ever, 248 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:20,160 Speaker 3: does it surprise you that people are that angry about 249 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:22,360 Speaker 3: the Hekoy protest in the Hacker? 250 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:24,800 Speaker 5: No, it doesn't surprise me. 251 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:25,240 Speaker 7: At all. 252 00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:28,360 Speaker 8: I think people you don't have their fellow concerns. I 253 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 8: guess for me, I was watching it yesterday, I didn't 254 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:32,840 Speaker 8: realize what was being referenced, and you know, maybe that's 255 00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 8: on me. It didn't affect my well engagement with the 256 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:38,839 Speaker 8: game at all, because I got onto the game and 257 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:40,320 Speaker 8: I was probably more upset with the way the All 258 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 8: Backs were playing and how they finished off the year. 259 00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 8: So that's where it's at for me. I mean, obviously, 260 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:50,680 Speaker 8: you know, we don't want too much politics in sport, 261 00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 8: but I also don't think people that know TJ Petinada 262 00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:58,640 Speaker 8: should be surprised that he used his final game after 263 00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:01,839 Speaker 8: a very distinguished career to do this and push this 264 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,840 Speaker 8: forward for him, he probably saw it as an opportunity 265 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 8: and something you felt strongly about, and that's where it went. 266 00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:12,040 Speaker 8: But you know, as I said, I got onto the 267 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:14,400 Speaker 8: game pretty fast and it was pretty more disappointed with that. 268 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:16,800 Speaker 3: We heard anything at all from the NZR or All 269 00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:17,960 Speaker 3: Blacks management about. 270 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:20,440 Speaker 8: This, No, nothing at all. I think what was interesting 271 00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 8: was I heard a bit of discussion yesterday around a 272 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:26,480 Speaker 8: few people that they had actually taken the start of 273 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:29,559 Speaker 8: the Harker off the All Black Social media channels when 274 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:32,880 Speaker 8: they shared the harker, which I found quite interesting. Is 275 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:35,319 Speaker 8: that a statement in itself maybe, but in terms of 276 00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 8: anything directly other than obviously you know, the captain Scott 277 00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:42,320 Speaker 8: Barrett and coach Scott Robertson and other teammates who fronted 278 00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:45,079 Speaker 8: interviews in the press conference's post game. Very little from 279 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:48,440 Speaker 8: from ENZR itself around this, and I suspect that will 280 00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:49,719 Speaker 8: remain for now. 281 00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:50,079 Speaker 5: Why. 282 00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:54,560 Speaker 8: I just don't think they'll don't want to be drawn 283 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:56,720 Speaker 8: into it at all. You know, what are they going 284 00:11:56,800 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 8: to say? Really, it's it's frustrating that this is the 285 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:03,320 Speaker 8: talking point at the end of the year. 286 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:05,400 Speaker 3: Really, to be honest, this is going to be honest 287 00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:07,880 Speaker 3: with you. Don't tell anyone this. But this is why 288 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 3: I'm really star TJ's leaving because he is such a recidibist. 289 00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:15,160 Speaker 3: He's such a recidabist with the politics. Say, he was 290 00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 3: the anti meat thing, and then he was supporting the 291 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:19,680 Speaker 3: women's hocker and then he had the ihumato on his armband, 292 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 3: and I just got tired of all his politics in sports. 293 00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 3: So I'm start like, great, good yay for him that 294 00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 3: he did well off you go. 295 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:28,199 Speaker 8: Do you know what I mean, yeah, yeah, great service 296 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:30,000 Speaker 8: for the game. But as I said that, everyone that 297 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 8: knows TJ and has followed his career over the years 298 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:34,560 Speaker 8: not have been surprised with what he did yesterday. 299 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:36,800 Speaker 3: Hey can we talk about Auckland FC, because how good 300 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:38,880 Speaker 3: is this? Nobody thought they'd do four from four? 301 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:42,000 Speaker 8: Absolutely not. Now this is a great story, isn't it. 302 00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:44,400 Speaker 8: And to start the new A League tenure, no one has, 303 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 8: as we say, heither has done this four from four 304 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 8: to start the new season. And I guess even more significantly, 305 00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:51,719 Speaker 8: they haven't even conceded a goal yet. There is not 306 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:54,959 Speaker 8: one goal that has got past the defensive lineup or 307 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 8: Alex Paulson, their keeper. And you know, everyone that's been 308 00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:00,520 Speaker 8: following Alex Paulson's journey obviously Phoenix last year got that 309 00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:03,440 Speaker 8: signing over to the UK, then got transferred back to Auckland. 310 00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 8: We all know his credentials, so you know his career 311 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 8: has you know, just just you know, had a great 312 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 8: moment at Auckland the f CEA. I will warn Auckland 313 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 8: fans who are starting to get all nasty to Phoenix 314 00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 8: fans down here on Wellington. They're starting to get a 315 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 8: little bit loud a little bit arrogant. All they've had, 316 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 8: Heather is one one trip over to Sydney. They haven't 317 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:24,640 Speaker 8: done any of the longer A league journeys. Three of 318 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:26,839 Speaker 8: their four games have been on New Zealand soil.

And we'll 334 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:09,599 Speaker 3: have a chat to Oliver Steve Oliver Pedterson about that 335 00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:11,800 Speaker 3: when he's with us shortly and on that subject broadly. 336 00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:15,000 Speaker 3: Cop twenty nine. Now Cop twenty nine got extended no 337 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,559 Speaker 3: surprise over the weekend so that they could get to 338 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:19,160 Speaker 3: the final deal, and then they managed to get to 339 00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 3: the final deal. And I do not know how this 340 00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 3: is going to fly with people, because basically what they've 341 00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:28,280 Speaker 3: agreed to is that rich countries now have to pay 342 00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:32,200 Speaker 3: a bigger amount of money to poor countries every single 343 00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:34,200 Speaker 3: year all the way through to the year twenty thirty 344 00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:36,920 Speaker 3: five to basically help the poor countries, you know, get 345 00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 3: themselves off the fossil fields and stuff like that. Now 346 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 3: in the past. Currently I think we're paying about this 347 00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:45,760 Speaker 3: is globally, the rich countries are paying about one hundred 348 00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:48,160 Speaker 3: billion dollars to the poor countries and that's going to 349 00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:50,920 Speaker 3: be bumped up to five hundred billion dollars. And we 350 00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:52,840 Speaker 3: do not know how much New Zealand is going to pay, 351 00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 3: but you can do a rough calculation and maybe get 352 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:57,680 Speaker 3: an idea. Because of the one hundred billion dollars that 353 00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:00,920 Speaker 3: is paid, we pay in New z two hundred and 354 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:05,320 Speaker 3: thirty five million dollars a year. That is a lot 355 00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:08,360 Speaker 3: of money. Two hundred and thirty five million dollars a year. Now, 356 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:11,000 Speaker 3: if the total package goes up five times, does our 357 00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:14,040 Speaker 3: contribution go up five times? Because then we're paying one 358 00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:17,880 Speaker 3: point two billion dollars a year to help some other people. 359 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:20,560 Speaker 3: I don't know how that's gonna fly. How's that flying with? 360 00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 3: U's not flying well with me because I feel like 361 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 3: we've got a lot of issues of our own and 362 00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:26,080 Speaker 3: we're just talking to Dave Lttelli about it anyway.

So what happened was she applied 432 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:54,840 Speaker 3: for a copy of her birth certificate in nineteen seventy nine. 433 00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:56,520 Speaker 3: I think she was like thirty three or something like that, 434 00:18:56,960 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 3: and up to that point she thought her name was 435 00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:01,000 Speaker 3: chery Lynne, which is what her mother had always called it. 436 00:19:01,280 --> 00:19:03,119 Speaker 3: But then the birth certificate arrived and her name was 437 00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:06,960 Speaker 3: actually Sheryl and her mum was also shocked at what 438 00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 3: her name was, but what she said to sher was 439 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:12,000 Speaker 3: that after giving birth a month early when she was 440 00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:14,679 Speaker 3: only nineteen years old, with no pain relief, she actually 441 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:17,400 Speaker 3: couldn't remember exactly what she'd written on the birth certificate. 442 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:22,320 Speaker 2: International correspondence with ends and Eye Insurance, Peace of mind 443 00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:23,399 Speaker 2: for New Zealand business. 444 00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:27,240 Speaker 3: That's funny. Imagine that shocked to mom, shocked to baby 445 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:32,160 Speaker 3: Oliver Peterson six PR Perth Life presenters with I say, Oli, hey, Heather, Okay, 446 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:34,600 Speaker 3: so how is the government going to tackle bullying? And 447 00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:35,359 Speaker 3: good luck to them? 448 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 11: Absolutely, good luck to them. They're saying that what they're 449 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:40,920 Speaker 11: going to do is write to all state premiers and 450 00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:44,639 Speaker 11: education ministers to formulate a national response to bullying. Now, 451 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:48,159 Speaker 11: look massive issue. Absolutely, I'm not trying to sugarcoat that. 452 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:50,879 Speaker 11: And I actually think this somewhat surprises me, Heather, that 453 00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:53,160 Speaker 11: we don't actually have the best in the brightest minds 454 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 11: already coming together to say, whether you're bullied at a 455 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:58,040 Speaker 11: high school or a primary school in Perth or Adelaide 456 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:00,600 Speaker 11: or Brisbane or Hobart, that they have some sort of 457 00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:03,159 Speaker 11: model the way that the schools can respond to the 458 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:06,760 Speaker 11: allegations or to help the bullied person or individual. But 459 00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:09,440 Speaker 11: as you say, good luck to them. And if this 460 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:11,879 Speaker 11: hasn't already been thought about or tried, or those that 461 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,960 Speaker 11: expertise hasn't been shed already, what a massive failure it 462 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:18,520 Speaker 11: has been from the Australian state governments and the federal 463 00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:21,399 Speaker 11: government for decades like this, This is stuff which should 464 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:23,919 Speaker 11: have been worked on as bullying has become a more 465 00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:25,920 Speaker 11: important issue. I just feel as though that you know, 466 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:28,960 Speaker 11: the Prime Minister is desperately searching at the moment header 467 00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:31,719 Speaker 11: for you know, a win, and he thinks he's had 468 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:33,960 Speaker 11: a win with the social media ban on the under sixteenes. 469 00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:36,200 Speaker 11: This you know, ties into that a little bit with bullying. 470 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:39,119 Speaker 11: And while we've got that, he's trying not to focus 471 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:41,719 Speaker 11: on the Misinformation Bill, the housing stuff, which is going 472 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 11: to be forwarded this week in the Federal Parliament. It's 473 00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:45,600 Speaker 11: the last week of the year that they actually sit. 474 00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 11: He's just looking for some sort of victory because he's 475 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:49,760 Speaker 11: had a pretty tough time of it. 476 00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:50,840 Speaker 1: As of like is it enough. 477 00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:56,440 Speaker 11: No, it's not enough, it's not enough. I mean, one, 478 00:20:56,520 --> 00:20:58,720 Speaker 11: if you want to look at, you know, the idea 479 00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:00,480 Speaker 11: that you know, first, on this bullying thing, the fact 480 00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:02,680 Speaker 11: that you just write and get collaboration from the States 481 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:05,760 Speaker 11: ministers and the federal government. Again, they should have been 482 00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:07,400 Speaker 11: doing that already. That's not going to be a vote 483 00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:11,960 Speaker 11: winner for people. But two, you know, the economy at 484 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:14,479 Speaker 11: the moment is still the number one issue in this country. 485 00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:19,960 Speaker 11: The government is not tackling that to the to the 486 00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:21,960 Speaker 11: level that I think Australians are expecting, and they're just 487 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:24,480 Speaker 11: almost limping their way towards an election next year. There's 488 00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:26,119 Speaker 11: just so much uncertainly about when that will be. 489 00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:28,720 Speaker 3: Yep, fair enough. So tell me about these guys who 490 00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:30,640 Speaker 3: got arrested at the climate protest. 491 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:33,960 Speaker 11: I mean, isn't this nuts you think about? You know, 492 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:36,159 Speaker 11: you can have protests, but to go out into the 493 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 11: harbor channel there in Newcastle one hundred and seventy people 494 00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:41,360 Speaker 11: and we're talking about even a baby on a kayak, 495 00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:44,000 Speaker 11: a twelve month old on a kayak. I mean that 496 00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 11: child should actually be taken from its parents and given 497 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:48,120 Speaker 11: to child services. 498 00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:49,720 Speaker 3: Because you can make. 499 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:52,520 Speaker 11: Your song and dance, but the idea that you would 500 00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:55,560 Speaker 11: go on protest in a harbor working channel is just 501 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:59,040 Speaker 11: beyond the extreme dangers that you can really comprehend. I 502 00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:01,560 Speaker 11: mean we had to see dozens of people being helped 503 00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:03,840 Speaker 11: out of the water. One hundred and fifty six people 504 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:07,960 Speaker 11: were arrested and fourteen children arrested for these protests. Obviously 505 00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:11,520 Speaker 11: this was an anti cold protest. They defied directions not 506 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:13,600 Speaker 11: to edit that shipping channel. And think of all the 507 00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 11: resources it took for the water police and the police 508 00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:17,879 Speaker 11: in general to bring this crowd under control. 509 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:20,480 Speaker 3: You're not telling me, Ollie that they're going to charge kids. 510 00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:22,720 Speaker 3: Well they probably won't. 511 00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:23,920 Speaker 11: They get them a slap on the wrist, and they'll 512 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 11: probably going to do it again next week. 513 00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:26,760 Speaker 3: Well, like, how young are we talking with the kids? 514 00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:28,920 Speaker 3: Are we talking like sixteen year old kids? All one 515 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:29,640 Speaker 3: year old kids? 516 00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:31,600 Speaker 11: No, we're talking teenagers. I don't think I don't think 517 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:32,960 Speaker 11: the baby or I don't think the baby on the 518 00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:34,000 Speaker 11: kayak was charged. 519 00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 1: His parents should be. 520 00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:36,800 Speaker 11: But I think they've charged the baby. 521 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:41,560 Speaker 3: Why not tough on crime stardom young? I was wondering 522 00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:43,960 Speaker 3: about that. I'm surprised. I've got to be honest with 523 00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:46,000 Speaker 3: you to see that you guys are only in Victoria 524 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:49,480 Speaker 3: getting the testing trial for the pills this upcoming summer. 525 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:51,760 Speaker 3: You tell me that this has never happened before they 526 00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:52,520 Speaker 3: have any camera. 527 00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:54,399 Speaker 11: For the last couple of summers they've tried it, but 528 00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:57,320 Speaker 11: you know, this is probably the first, say mainstream states. 529 00:22:57,320 --> 00:22:59,320 Speaker 11: Sorry to all the Canburians, we'll be upset with that, 530 00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:01,040 Speaker 11: but theyre going to do it yet this summer they're 531 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:03,200 Speaker 11: going to launch it at least five different festivals, the 532 00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:05,840 Speaker 11: first one being a festival that runs into the December 533 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:08,639 Speaker 11: twenty eighth to January one. There's about thirty five thousand 534 00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:09,359 Speaker 11: people that go to that. 535 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:12,200 Speaker 1: So look, you know what, I'm actually. 536 00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:12,760 Speaker 11: Four pill testing. 537 00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:13,119 Speaker 5: I know that. 538 00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:15,399 Speaker 11: You know people say that means you know legitimate drugs. 539 00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 12: Well, no you're not. 540 00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:18,920 Speaker 11: I just hope that some people who go put those 541 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:21,240 Speaker 11: things through the machines turn around and go, geez, you 542 00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:23,280 Speaker 11: know that was in it. Yeah, I look at you 543 00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:23,840 Speaker 11: having that again. 544 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:26,639 Speaker 3: Right, But they're going to shove it in their faces regardless, right, 545 00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:28,119 Speaker 3: so you may as well make sure it's safe if 546 00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:29,800 Speaker 3: they're going to do it. I agree. 547 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:31,400 Speaker 11: So they'll be doing it this summer, and I reckon 548 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:34,000 Speaker 11: other states will follow suit. Watch I can w al 549 00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:34,800 Speaker 11: be sooner rather than later. 550 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:36,600 Speaker 3: Hey, good on you, thank you so much.

Yes, it's happening in Auckland. They've got a 563 00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:09,000 Speaker 3: new one. It's on Federal Street, not far away from 564 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:10,600 Speaker 3: the one that they shut down just the other day. 565 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:12,960 Speaker 3: Barry Sober will run us through the details when he's 566 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:14,520 Speaker 3: with us shortly sixteen away. 567 00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:17,800 Speaker 2: From five Politics with Centrics Credit, check your customers and 568 00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:19,240 Speaker 2: get payments, certainty. 569 00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:21,440 Speaker 3: Barry Soper seeing your political correspondence with us, Hey, Barry, 570 00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:24,400 Speaker 3: good afternoon, Heather. Okay, So this new police station, it's 571 00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:26,760 Speaker 3: on Federal Street in Auckland. It does it sound like 572 00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:28,760 Speaker 3: it's like road frontage or is it upstairs? 573 00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:30,680 Speaker 13: No, it's going to be they're going to have a 574 00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:33,680 Speaker 13: street frontage, are they. This isn't that way at the moment. 575 00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:39,040 Speaker 13: But at the moment they occupy two floors in this building. Yeah, 576 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:42,080 Speaker 13: and no're negotiating with the tenants, by the sounds of things, 577 00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:44,760 Speaker 13: to get off the other two floors and then they'll 578 00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 13: occupy the whole building. That'll cost the taxpayer, of course, 579 00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:50,959 Speaker 13: quite a lot of money. And I thought they may 580 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:53,760 Speaker 13: go back to but it's probably too late because it 581 00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:57,040 Speaker 13: would have been sold on a mural drive. That was 582 00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:59,800 Speaker 13: they moved out of that in twenty nineteen. They went 583 00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 13: to Freeman's Bay to College Street and that's the main 584 00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:08,080 Speaker 13: Central Auckland police station. There's been a campaign to get 585 00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:11,680 Speaker 13: a police station in Central Auckland for some time, but 586 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,440 Speaker 13: some of the critics would say, well, look to get 587 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:18,360 Speaker 13: from College Hill to Federal Street takes no time at all, 588 00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:21,560 Speaker 13: So why are we wasting our money to get into 589 00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:21,920 Speaker 13: the city. 590 00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:27,080 Speaker 3: About people being able presence, it's about you're in trouble, 591 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:29,320 Speaker 3: somebody's having a somebody smashed you in the face. You 592 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:30,720 Speaker 3: need to go see a copper, you know where to 593 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:33,840 Speaker 3: find them. Why they shut down the Meryll Street one, 594 00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:34,399 Speaker 3: by the way. 595 00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:38,720 Speaker 13: Well, presumably because they'd built this new one on College Hill, 596 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:42,159 Speaker 13: which is a pretty flash police station. The nice aspect 597 00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:44,760 Speaker 13: of it today was it's the first day of the 598 00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:48,480 Speaker 13: new police Commissioner, Richard Chambers job in the job, so 599 00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:52,639 Speaker 13: it's his first day on duty and they are the 600 00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:56,119 Speaker 13: Prime Minister and he were downstairs talking to the beat cops. 601 00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:59,080 Speaker 13: They found a cop that was his first day on 602 00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:02,000 Speaker 13: the job, so they all got a photo together, and 603 00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:04,880 Speaker 13: I thought that would have been rather nice. Wayne Brown's 604 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:09,000 Speaker 13: really happy because this police station he lives in the city. 605 00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:11,480 Speaker 13: He said it's great for him because he'll feel much 606 00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:14,680 Speaker 13: safer now that the cops have established themselves. There'll be 607 00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:17,080 Speaker 13: fifty one police at the new station. 608 00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:20,040 Speaker 3: So yeah, I'll tell you what. When I was at university, 609 00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:24,320 Speaker 3: it was perfectly fine to wander around that part of 610 00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:28,399 Speaker 3: town where that cop shop was on Meryl Drive. So 611 00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:31,480 Speaker 3: you'd wander up Grays have no problem at all. You'd 612 00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:33,399 Speaker 3: go to the local theater there and stuff because there 613 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:36,720 Speaker 3: was downtown food and all that kind of stuff. Cop 614 00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:39,119 Speaker 3: shop's gone that place. I would not walk down it now. 615 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:40,920 Speaker 3: So it says a lot about the importance of a 616 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:41,960 Speaker 3: police presence. 617 00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:42,240 Speaker 5: I think it does. 618 00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:47,520 Speaker 13: And the funny at the parade, the Christmas parade the 619 00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:49,960 Speaker 13: other day here in Auckland, I was down there and 620 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:52,240 Speaker 13: I got one of the cops to take a photograph 621 00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:55,720 Speaker 13: of me and my little boy. Yeah, and I said, 622 00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:57,800 Speaker 13: I know it's not your job description, but I've got 623 00:26:57,920 --> 00:26:59,720 Speaker 13: to say so. I saw a lot of cops around 624 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:01,920 Speaker 13: there and I thought, you know, it was good to see. 625 00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:02,359 Speaker 5: I'll tell you what. 626 00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:05,440 Speaker 13: They will have their work cut out though, because one 627 00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:08,920 Speaker 13: of them left the Police commissioner. So the Prime Minister's 628 00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:13,560 Speaker 13: itinerary when when he was in Queenstown yesterday on the 629 00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:16,280 Speaker 13: dashboard or the car, so they may have cull put 630 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:18,360 Speaker 13: over that one. And I think it's probably fair enough 631 00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:21,160 Speaker 13: that it's one of those things that you probably don't 632 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:22,920 Speaker 13: think about when you're jumping out of the car to 633 00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:25,239 Speaker 13: open the door for the Prime minister and you leave 634 00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 13: it on the dashboard. 635 00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:28,520 Speaker 3: Probably, as somebody made the point, not so bad with Luxeon, 636 00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 3: would have been terrible with Jacinda because of the fields 637 00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:32,600 Speaker 3: around it totally and yeah, yeah, So what do you 638 00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:34,679 Speaker 3: make of the first year of the coalition government. 639 00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:37,639 Speaker 13: Well, I'll tell you what that police station launched. The 640 00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:43,000 Speaker 13: Prime Minister was enthusiastic about ending his first year. He said, 641 00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:45,399 Speaker 13: the government has performed well, have listened. 642 00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:47,840 Speaker 14: We've made some tremendous progress over the last twelve months. 643 00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:49,320 Speaker 14: We know there's a lot more for us to do. 644 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:52,000 Speaker 14: I have to say, twelve months into this job, I 645 00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:55,159 Speaker 14: feel incredibly optimistic about the future for New Zealand. I 646 00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:58,280 Speaker 14: think there is no reason why together we can't build 647 00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:01,119 Speaker 14: the best small country on planet Earth period. And we 648 00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:04,280 Speaker 14: know we've got work to do economically, socially, environmentally, but 649 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:07,239 Speaker 14: we're working our way through that. We certainly for now 650 00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:08,400 Speaker 14: are in a turnaround job. 651 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:11,439 Speaker 13: Yeah, they are, and it's going to be really interesting. 652 00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:13,879 Speaker 13: We've had a baptism afar. Let's face it had a 653 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:16,240 Speaker 13: hell of a time and they took the Treasury benches. 654 00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:19,920 Speaker 13: But it's interesting to me the dynamics between the leadership 655 00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:24,560 Speaker 13: because that shared deputy prime ministership. That's never been done before. 656 00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:27,840 Speaker 13: So in main X year you're going to have David 657 00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:31,359 Speaker 13: Seymour sit alongside the Prime Minister in the House and 658 00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:34,760 Speaker 13: Winston Peters will no doubt be relegated, but he'd be 659 00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:38,120 Speaker 13: pretty close by, I would imagine. But look, you only 660 00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:40,000 Speaker 13: have to look down as I did last week on 661 00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:42,600 Speaker 13: the Prime Minister and Winston Peters to see that the 662 00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:46,479 Speaker 13: rapport between these two is very good and certainly they 663 00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:50,200 Speaker 13: obviously get on well. We saw in an interview with 664 00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:55,040 Speaker 13: the Prime Minister that he and his wife and Winston 665 00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:58,920 Speaker 13: and his partner have dinner from time to time. Not 666 00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:02,400 Speaker 13: the same with David Seymour, but Dane Sema was a 667 00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:06,480 Speaker 13: much more difficult character to work with than what Winston 668 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:07,160 Speaker 13: Peters would be. 669 00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:10,200 Speaker 3: It's not allowed on the double dates. Okay. Now, as 670 00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:12,480 Speaker 3: a rugby fan, did TJ make you angry? 671 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:15,200 Speaker 5: I yelled at the screen. 672 00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:17,160 Speaker 13: I wonder what he was doing and there was a 673 00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:20,680 Speaker 13: lot of grunting and stuff before the harker started. And 674 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:25,040 Speaker 13: to learn that he was involving himself in politics in 675 00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:28,080 Speaker 13: the way he did with what is our national sport, 676 00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:32,080 Speaker 13: I thought was, you know, call me old fashioned, but 677 00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:35,080 Speaker 13: I really don't believe there's a place for politics on 678 00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:38,160 Speaker 13: the field, on the rugby field when you're at an 679 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 13: international test fixture. And I thought it was not unforgivable, 680 00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:45,280 Speaker 13: but it was unacceptable. The thing that worries me Heather 681 00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:53,560 Speaker 13: that we've heard Debbie rolling packing beating her gums about. Look, 682 00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:58,600 Speaker 13: the harker is our way of expressing ourselves. So in 683 00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:01,440 Speaker 13: the house when we saw that hukkah a couple of 684 00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:05,240 Speaker 13: weeks ago, you can probably bet your bottom dollar there'll 685 00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:07,360 Speaker 13: be more of that sort of behavior in the House 686 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:08,880 Speaker 13: of the Speaker doesn't do something. 687 00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:11,400 Speaker 3: About Barry, were you not proud of the All Blacks 688 00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:12,880 Speaker 3: when they said that they were not going to go 689 00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:15,520 Speaker 3: to South Africa in opposition to the apartheish? 690 00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:16,560 Speaker 5: Absolutely, But this. 691 00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:19,040 Speaker 3: Is so, why is okay for politicspecting no, no, Now. 692 00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:23,440 Speaker 13: That was a totally different situation. It wasn't an internal 693 00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:27,520 Speaker 13: New Zealand problem, although the country was divided on the 694 00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:31,880 Speaker 13: apart eid issue. But that's a totally different scenario to 695 00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:34,160 Speaker 13: what this is and the Treaty of Wye. 696 00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:36,360 Speaker 3: Tonguey okay, Thank you Berry, appreciate it. Barry, so for 697 00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:38,280 Speaker 3: seeing your political correspondence seven away from. 698 00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:42,760 Speaker 2: Five, digging into the issues that affect you, the mic 699 00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:43,680 Speaker 2: asking breakfast. 700 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:46,160 Speaker 15: I think there was sticking a number next to it 701 00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:48,440 Speaker 15: because twenty nine just remind you there were twenty eight 702 00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:50,040 Speaker 15: other times it didn't quite come together the. 703 00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:53,640 Speaker 2: Way they thought, well, we have had it has been 704 00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:55,720 Speaker 2: a necessary negotiation. 705 00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:56,640 Speaker 5: So what is it? 706 00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:59,600 Speaker 15: Is it behavior related? Is it how they teach, what 707 00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:01,160 Speaker 15: they teach? What's happened? 708 00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:04,280 Speaker 16: I think it's a whole combination effect. 709 00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:07,840 Speaker 15: Is back tomorrow at six am the mic asking Breakfast 710 00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:10,040 Speaker 15: with the Rain driver of the LAHN News talk z B. 711 00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:13,400 Speaker 3: Hey, good news if you're on the hormone replacement therapy, 712 00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:16,760 Speaker 3: you know, obviously just for the women.

Anyway, 717 00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:28,640 Speaker 3: there's a brand change, so that sounds like it's a 718 00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:30,040 Speaker 3: good thing, and we're going to talk to somebody about 719 00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:34,560 Speaker 3: that in about half an hour's time.

So what's happened is before uploading the 781 00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:24,839 Speaker 3: video they have removed the controversial political bit from TJ 782 00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:27,239 Speaker 3: Petnada at the start where he says in Mari the 783 00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:29,400 Speaker 3: sovereignty of the land, the people and the Treaty of 784 00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:32,040 Speaker 3: white Tongey remains.

Hmmm, well, it's not been done before. 788 00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:45,840 Speaker 17: As far as I know, we never edit, Hucker. 789 00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:49,399 Speaker 3: Do you know whether they put the video up, got 790 00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:52,120 Speaker 3: the responses, took it down, edited and re uploaded or 791 00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:54,600 Speaker 3: is this just how they uploaded it in the first place. 792 00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:58,320 Speaker 17: I presume it's how they uploaded it, which begs the 793 00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:01,600 Speaker 17: question who made that decision? And I chose on my 794 00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:04,680 Speaker 17: social media platform to share Sky's version which was the 795 00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:10,160 Speaker 17: hooker as it was delivered for our Sunday morning Saturday 796 00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:12,640 Speaker 17: night in Italy, which is what normally happens. 797 00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:14,240 Speaker 7: Right, we love the hacker. 798 00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:17,080 Speaker 3: This suggests to me that they are already feeling the 799 00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:20,239 Speaker 3: heat or maybe regretting the course of action that they're 800 00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:21,320 Speaker 3: taken by saying yes to it. 801 00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:26,360 Speaker 17: Yeah, somebody in there is. Obviously the players went and 802 00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:29,640 Speaker 17: the management didn't seem to, so you know, I take 803 00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:33,040 Speaker 17: Razor on his word. He was pretty clear about what 804 00:35:33,200 --> 00:35:35,480 Speaker 17: the hooker, what was behind the hooker, and the purpose 805 00:35:35,560 --> 00:35:37,839 Speaker 17: of the hooker was to call for unity back home, 806 00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:40,440 Speaker 17: which is what we want when our team goes out 807 00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:42,440 Speaker 17: on the field, to be honest, we want to unify 808 00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:45,880 Speaker 17: team ready to do the business. So you know, TJ 809 00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:51,160 Speaker 17: was accorded that leadership responsibility. He's, from what I can see, 810 00:35:51,239 --> 00:35:53,279 Speaker 17: played eighty nine tests and that's what it was, is 811 00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:57,520 Speaker 17: fifty eighth calling the hacker, so you know they trust 812 00:35:57,600 --> 00:35:58,600 Speaker 17: him to lead them. 813 00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:01,640 Speaker 3: Louis, I think it's appropriate for him to have done 814 00:36:01,719 --> 00:36:04,960 Speaker 3: what he did, given given that the hacker is. It 815 00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:07,799 Speaker 3: feels like an all Black supporter. It feels like it's 816 00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:10,840 Speaker 3: done on behalf of the whole country, and the whole 817 00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:13,279 Speaker 3: country is not in support of the he cooy So 818 00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:14,680 Speaker 3: is it appropriate. 819 00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:19,440 Speaker 17: Then, well, the whole country has been in supportive the 820 00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:22,000 Speaker 17: hooker that has been performed by the All Blacks since 821 00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:26,280 Speaker 17: nineteen oh five. None of us have ever had editorial rights, 822 00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:30,080 Speaker 17: and there's been an evolution of the hooker over time, 823 00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:33,280 Speaker 17: and in fact we have two forms of the hacker. 824 00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:37,680 Speaker 17: But every year the team goes through a process of 825 00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:41,120 Speaker 17: determining how they will do the hooker, which is about 826 00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:44,520 Speaker 17: it's a tech hunger issue. And who has vested with 827 00:36:44,760 --> 00:36:47,600 Speaker 17: the responsibility to lead the hooker on behalf of the 828 00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:53,160 Speaker 17: All Blacks and TJ was vested with that leadership responsibility. 829 00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:57,320 Speaker 17: He obviously talked to his teammates and his coach and 830 00:36:57,440 --> 00:37:01,040 Speaker 17: others about what the purpose intent was behind the hooker. 831 00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:05,440 Speaker 17: So that's their choice. Surely, why should any of us 832 00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:08,560 Speaker 17: now have a problem with the hooker being led the 833 00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:09,040 Speaker 17: way it was? 834 00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:11,680 Speaker 3: Luisa, thank you very much. I really appreciate that Lewis 835 00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:14,239 Speaker 3: and will former Blackfern and also former Labor Party MP. 836 00:37:14,760 --> 00:37:15,920 Speaker 1: Hell do for see alis. 837 00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:18,320 Speaker 3: So there's been a report that specialist doctors are refusing 838 00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:21,440 Speaker 3: to see patients because the waiting lists are already too long, 839 00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:23,440 Speaker 3: and this has come about because a letter from Parmestan 840 00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:26,840 Speaker 3: North Hospital's orthopedic clinic to a GP says a patient 841 00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:29,759 Speaker 3: can't be accepted. The waiting time targets have been leaked 842 00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:32,239 Speaker 3: to media because of the waiting time targets. Rather, Sarah 843 00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:34,840 Speaker 3: Dalton is the executive director of the Association of Salaried 844 00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:38,560 Speaker 3: Medical Specialists and is with us now, Hey, Sarah, Hey, Heather, 845 00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:40,200 Speaker 3: how are you doing very very well? Thank you that 846 00:37:40,239 --> 00:37:42,600 Speaker 3: we've got one example here, But is this happening more regularly? 847 00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:45,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, but I would reframe it. They're not refusing to 848 00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:49,759 Speaker 4: see patients they physically cannot given the resources they currently have, 849 00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:53,120 Speaker 4: the staffing levels we currently have, the access to clinics 850 00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:56,680 Speaker 4: and operating theaters and hospital beds we currently have. They 851 00:37:56,880 --> 00:38:00,080 Speaker 4: want to see those patients, believe you me, But. 852 00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:02,120 Speaker 3: Why can't they just put the people at the bottom 853 00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:04,000 Speaker 3: of the waiting list and then let the people work 854 00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:04,480 Speaker 3: their way up. 855 00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:07,360 Speaker 4: I think the point they're making is that if they 856 00:38:07,480 --> 00:38:09,839 Speaker 4: put someone on a waiting list like that at this time, 857 00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:12,640 Speaker 4: that person is never going to make their way up, 858 00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:14,759 Speaker 4: and so they are trying to inject I think some 859 00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:18,680 Speaker 4: honesty and some realism into what we call unmet needs. 860 00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:21,520 Speaker 4: So we are a wash in secondary unmet need in 861 00:38:21,640 --> 00:38:23,920 Speaker 4: New Zealand, which is all of those people who need 862 00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:26,879 Speaker 4: care but can't access it because of rationing. So making 863 00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:30,000 Speaker 4: a statement yeah I think so, but also being honest, 864 00:38:30,080 --> 00:38:31,279 Speaker 4: like it is so frustrating. 865 00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:32,239 Speaker 7: I was listening. 866 00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:36,440 Speaker 4: To the GPS on the radio this morning saying, this 867 00:38:36,600 --> 00:38:38,239 Speaker 4: is a real problem for us. We don't have the 868 00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:42,359 Speaker 4: resources we're being asked to manage these patients. We're only 869 00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:46,719 Speaker 4: referring them because they need hospital level care. We know 870 00:38:46,840 --> 00:38:51,360 Speaker 4: that our members know that. It is a real frustration. 871 00:38:51,719 --> 00:38:55,480 Speaker 4: So basically that funders and decision makers further up the 872 00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:59,000 Speaker 4: heap are leaving it on the shoulders of specialist GPS 873 00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:02,279 Speaker 4: and hospital specialists to say, hey, you sort it out. 874 00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:06,840 Speaker 3: Okay, this is not about gaming the waiting time targets. 875 00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:10,440 Speaker 4: It is not from the perspective of our members, the 876 00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:13,440 Speaker 4: senior doctors, they are trying to say, hey, we need 877 00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:15,719 Speaker 4: to talk honestly with people about what we're able to 878 00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:19,360 Speaker 4: do at the moment. The government setting targets without providing 879 00:39:19,480 --> 00:39:22,839 Speaker 4: resources to meet them, that's a game all of its own. 880 00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:26,080 Speaker 4: We could talk about that there will be pressure on 881 00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:28,839 Speaker 4: hospital managers to gain the targets to show that they 882 00:39:28,880 --> 00:39:31,919 Speaker 4: are making progress against them. It is a real, really 883 00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:34,319 Speaker 4: problematic way to try and manage the pressures on our 884 00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:34,880 Speaker 4: health system. 885 00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:37,800 Speaker 3: Sarah, thank you appreciate it. That's Sarah Dalton. Association of 886 00:39:37,840 --> 00:39:40,000 Speaker 3: Salary Medical Specialist Executive. 887 00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:42,040 Speaker 1: Director, Heather duplusy Ellen now. 888 00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:45,400 Speaker 3: Longtime fan of Torri Faro on this show, as you know, 889 00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:49,560 Speaker 3: and quite I feel like if Tory Faro was a 890 00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:52,080 Speaker 3: Netflix series, I'd be able to quote bits of it 891 00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:53,719 Speaker 3: back to you, you know, like that's how much I'm 892 00:39:53,880 --> 00:39:56,960 Speaker 3: ingesting of Tory Fano. And one of my favorite things 893 00:39:57,000 --> 00:39:58,880 Speaker 3: that happens with Tori is that Tory likes to talk 894 00:39:58,920 --> 00:40:01,640 Speaker 3: about how the Wellington City Council under her is putting 895 00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:04,560 Speaker 3: so much water into fixing the pipes, so much money 896 00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:07,440 Speaker 3: in fixing the water pipes, rather that they've just injected 897 00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:10,760 Speaker 3: the highest ever investment. She's always going on about highest 898 00:40:10,840 --> 00:40:13,839 Speaker 3: ever investment. You think, WHOA must be a lot of money, 899 00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:18,080 Speaker 3: is it though? Coming off a low base? Let me 900 00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:20,960 Speaker 3: tell you about it. So Wellington City Council needs to 901 00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:25,239 Speaker 3: fix hundreds of kilometers of pipes. Right at the moment, 902 00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:28,160 Speaker 3: they are fixing less than one k a year. The 903 00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:31,080 Speaker 3: total amount, the total amount that needs to be replaced 904 00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:34,040 Speaker 3: would stretch or fix would stretch from Wellington to way 905 00:40:34,200 --> 00:40:37,000 Speaker 3: past Fiji. The pipes that are in what they call 906 00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:40,880 Speaker 3: a poor condition would stretch from Wellington to Auckland's north shore. 907 00:40:41,320 --> 00:40:44,160 Speaker 3: The pipes that are in a very poor condition would 908 00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:47,960 Speaker 3: stretch from Wellington to beyond thy Hupeh. They are only 909 00:40:48,040 --> 00:40:50,680 Speaker 3: spending enough money every year to fix the pipes along 910 00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:51,480 Speaker 3: Landon Key. 911 00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:56,680 Speaker 18: Now, if that's the highest investment that they've ever done, 912 00:40:57,400 --> 00:40:59,719 Speaker 18: does this tell you why the pipes are breaking in 913 00:40:59,760 --> 00:41:04,560 Speaker 18: well If the fixing welling Wellington's Lampton Key every year 914 00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:06,320 Speaker 18: is the biggest amount that they've. 915 00:41:06,160 --> 00:41:09,799 Speaker 3: Ever spent, what the hell were they spending before? Anyway? Oh, 916 00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:12,919 Speaker 3: the places are shambles. Yet they're spending so much money 917 00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:16,920 Speaker 3: laying roads, ripping them up again, putting down some speed bumps, 918 00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:19,520 Speaker 3: ripping them up again, putting down some cycle ways, driving 919 00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:23,120 Speaker 3: everybody nuts, driving businesses out.

Far Mac has today 947 00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:34,239 Speaker 3: announced it's going to change the funded brand for the 948 00:42:34,320 --> 00:42:36,680 Speaker 3: patches because of the shortage issues that we've had. Doctor 949 00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:39,600 Speaker 3: Linda dere is the clinical director of MENO doctor and 950 00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:42,800 Speaker 3: with us now, Linda, Hello, Hello, Hey. This sounds like 951 00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:43,920 Speaker 3: good good news, is it? 952 00:42:45,480 --> 00:42:48,120 Speaker 16: It's kind of a mixture of good and maybe bad 953 00:42:49,719 --> 00:42:52,520 Speaker 16: because they what they're going to do is basically fund 954 00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:56,200 Speaker 16: only one brand of patch, which is called my Lamb. 955 00:42:56,960 --> 00:43:00,680 Speaker 16: And unfortunately, some women don't get home with my Land. 956 00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:02,719 Speaker 16: So for the women who don't get on with my 957 00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:05,000 Speaker 16: Land that this is going to make them feel a 958 00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:07,719 Speaker 16: little bit uneasy and a bit anxious. But on the 959 00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:11,800 Speaker 16: positive side, there are other options for those women, but 960 00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:14,120 Speaker 16: it means they might have to then do a bit 961 00:43:14,160 --> 00:43:16,879 Speaker 16: of work before their particular brand patch is no longer 962 00:43:17,120 --> 00:43:19,520 Speaker 16: funded as of first December next year. 963 00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:22,879 Speaker 3: Why is it that we were funding only one brand? 964 00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:25,240 Speaker 3: I mean that seems like that wasn't a really smart idea, 965 00:43:25,360 --> 00:43:25,520 Speaker 3: was it. 966 00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:30,640 Speaker 16: Oh no, we weren't. So before we were funding several brands. 967 00:43:31,040 --> 00:43:35,600 Speaker 16: So this is now restricting funding to one brand only 968 00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:39,480 Speaker 16: because that particular brand has come back and said we 969 00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:42,719 Speaker 16: can guarantee supply because one of the big problems with 970 00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:44,960 Speaker 16: Eastern patches has been trying to get hold of any 971 00:43:45,640 --> 00:43:48,400 Speaker 16: So what they are doing is choosing a brand that 972 00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:52,879 Speaker 16: won't run out on us. But the downside is women 973 00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:57,040 Speaker 16: don't have as much options for patches now. The good 974 00:43:57,120 --> 00:44:00,920 Speaker 16: news there though, is there are other options apart from Patches, 975 00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:04,520 Speaker 16: such as funder Gel, which most women who get on 976 00:44:04,640 --> 00:44:08,240 Speaker 16: with other non miland brands will get on with Gel fine, 977 00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:10,879 Speaker 16: but it means they have to start probably thinking about 978 00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:13,680 Speaker 16: that transition. Is they're in that group of women that 979 00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:15,880 Speaker 16: my Land doesn't agree with them. 980 00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:18,960 Speaker 3: Right, Linda, thank you, appreciate your time, doctor Linda Dere, 981 00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:24,640 Speaker 3: Clinical Director of Men No doctor now. Nicola willis Poor Nicola. 982 00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:28,080 Speaker 3: She went away to Antarctica last week and she was 983 00:44:28,360 --> 00:44:31,160 Speaker 3: if you've ever been to Antarctica, it's amazing down there. 984 00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:33,840 Speaker 3: She's probably having the absolute time of her life, just 985 00:44:33,920 --> 00:44:36,400 Speaker 3: being blown away by nature. Meanwhile, people are just being 986 00:44:36,520 --> 00:44:41,160 Speaker 3: mean about her, including a most notably Robert McCullough, the economist, 987 00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:45,040 Speaker 3: the Auckland University Professor of economics. If you recall last 988 00:44:45,080 --> 00:44:49,080 Speaker 3: week wrote that brutal opinion piece in the Herald. Now 989 00:44:49,160 --> 00:44:52,319 Speaker 3: Nicola's back, it's probably caught up on it and she's 990 00:44:52,360 --> 00:44:54,080 Speaker 3: going to be with us after six o'clock, so we'll 991 00:44:54,120 --> 00:44:55,959 Speaker 3: ask her she will give her a right of reply 992 00:44:56,200 --> 00:44:58,480 Speaker 3: to that show We five twenty one the. 993 00:44:58,560 --> 00:45:01,319 Speaker 2: Then you trust to get the answers you need, Heather 994 00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:04,200 Speaker 2: Dup to see allan drive with one New Zealand. 995 00:45:04,400 --> 00:45:06,640 Speaker 1: Let's get connected and news talk as they'd be. 996 00:45:08,360 --> 00:45:11,280 Speaker 3: Heither. Surely the edited version of the ABIs was removed 997 00:45:11,280 --> 00:45:13,320 Speaker 3: the Hucker because it made a political statement. It's a 998 00:45:13,360 --> 00:45:15,760 Speaker 3: bit rich from a country that stood against politics interfering 999 00:45:15,800 --> 00:45:18,440 Speaker 3: with sport in the nineteen eighties. Yeah, there'd be a 1000 00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:20,360 Speaker 3: lot of people who'll be feeling pretty grumpy about this 1001 00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:23,320 Speaker 3: and would have been absolutely fine about us taking a 1002 00:45:23,400 --> 00:45:26,399 Speaker 3: stance on the Springbok tour and the apartheid in South 1003 00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:28,080 Speaker 3: Africa and so on. Anyway, we'll talk to the Huddle 1004 00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:30,720 Speaker 3: about it shortly and Mark Mitchell, police Minister on opening 1005 00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:33,239 Speaker 3: that new cop shop in Central Auckland as well. Five 1006 00:45:33,400 --> 00:45:36,920 Speaker 3: twenty four now won't have escaped your attention that we 1007 00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:39,719 Speaker 3: are one year into the coalition that was yesterday, and 1008 00:45:39,800 --> 00:45:41,640 Speaker 3: so the questions, of course, what do we make of it? Well, 1009 00:45:41,880 --> 00:45:44,400 Speaker 3: let's deal with the main players in the coalition. First day, 1010 00:45:44,480 --> 00:45:47,399 Speaker 3: Chris Luxon, Now, I reckon, Chris came into the job 1011 00:45:47,880 --> 00:45:51,040 Speaker 3: probably hoping to be the next John Key, super popular, 1012 00:45:51,160 --> 00:45:54,760 Speaker 3: shrugging off controversially, largely governing by incremental change and everybody 1013 00:45:54,800 --> 00:45:58,440 Speaker 3: feeling absolutely stoked with that. Instead of being the next 1014 00:45:58,520 --> 00:46:00,239 Speaker 3: John Key, I reckon, he's shaping up to be the 1015 00:46:00,280 --> 00:46:03,680 Speaker 3: next Gim Bolger, not really super popular, under threat of 1016 00:46:03,719 --> 00:46:05,800 Speaker 3: being replaced by a woman in his team, you know 1017 00:46:05,920 --> 00:46:08,520 Speaker 3: what I mean by that? And Kinnen one of those 1018 00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:13,520 Speaker 3: prime ministers who is wedged between two more memorable prime ministers, 1019 00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:15,080 Speaker 3: do you know what I mean? For Bolger it was 1020 00:46:15,160 --> 00:46:17,560 Speaker 3: Longie on one side and Clarky on the other, and 1021 00:46:17,680 --> 00:46:19,360 Speaker 3: for Luxe and it's j Justinda on one side and 1022 00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:23,000 Speaker 3: whoever is elected next on the other. On David Seymour, 1023 00:46:23,360 --> 00:46:25,759 Speaker 3: I reckon, of the three leaders in this coalition, he's 1024 00:46:25,760 --> 00:46:27,440 Speaker 3: the one that we actually need the most right now, 1025 00:46:27,480 --> 00:46:29,879 Speaker 3: because I suspect he's actually to be fair. I think 1026 00:46:29,920 --> 00:46:31,600 Speaker 3: he might be the smartest of the three of them, 1027 00:46:31,600 --> 00:46:34,520 Speaker 3: because he's got all the ideas, and he's brave enough, 1028 00:46:34,600 --> 00:46:37,919 Speaker 3: given his voter base, to propose reform and do brave things. 1029 00:46:38,160 --> 00:46:40,080 Speaker 3: He's the guy wanting to go hard on cutting the 1030 00:46:40,120 --> 00:46:41,879 Speaker 3: fat out of the public service. He's the guy brave 1031 00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:44,640 Speaker 3: enough to tackle the race relations nonsense that we've grown 1032 00:46:44,680 --> 00:46:46,800 Speaker 3: so accustomed to in the last fifty years. But the 1033 00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:49,040 Speaker 3: problem is, like with a lot of very very very 1034 00:46:49,120 --> 00:46:52,279 Speaker 3: smart people, David, I suspect is not easy to work 1035 00:46:52,360 --> 00:46:55,120 Speaker 3: with and so comes across as quite bratty. I mean 1036 00:46:55,200 --> 00:46:57,480 Speaker 3: it says a lot. What did Luxon say today? Luxon 1037 00:46:57,520 --> 00:46:59,960 Speaker 3: and Winnie and their girlfriends go out on double Day, 1038 00:47:00,400 --> 00:47:04,799 Speaker 3: but David's not invited. That probably tells you a lot. Winnip. Now, 1039 00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:07,520 Speaker 3: as always Winnipe promises a lot on the home front 1040 00:47:07,560 --> 00:47:11,400 Speaker 3: and generally doesn't deliver, always very slow to deliver. And 1041 00:47:11,520 --> 00:47:14,239 Speaker 3: this time is much the same as then, but as 1042 00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:17,720 Speaker 3: every other time basically. But he is an awesome foreign minister. 1043 00:47:17,840 --> 00:47:19,839 Speaker 3: He knows what he's doing. He's been around long enough 1044 00:47:19,880 --> 00:47:22,120 Speaker 3: to have very good connections, and I reckon. I mean, 1045 00:47:22,360 --> 00:47:23,960 Speaker 3: he's pretty much shaping up to be the best one 1046 00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:27,440 Speaker 3: we've had in living memory, and that is very important 1047 00:47:27,480 --> 00:47:28,880 Speaker 3: at a time like this, because this is when we 1048 00:47:29,000 --> 00:47:30,560 Speaker 3: really need him to be awesome at his job. 1049 00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:30,759 Speaker 19: Right. 1050 00:47:30,840 --> 00:47:34,440 Speaker 3: He was more ready for a Trump reelection than Australia 1051 00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:37,800 Speaker 3: was this time around, So very valuable in that respect. 1052 00:47:38,360 --> 00:47:42,920 Speaker 3: For the coalition itself, they have actually like they've annoyed 1053 00:47:42,920 --> 00:47:44,319 Speaker 3: a lot of people, they actually got a lot done 1054 00:47:44,320 --> 00:47:46,160 Speaker 3: in the last year. I feel like they have spent 1055 00:47:46,640 --> 00:47:49,480 Speaker 3: the last year stopping our bike from warbling. Do you 1056 00:47:49,520 --> 00:47:52,120 Speaker 3: know what I mean? They've writed it. It's not wabbling anymore. 1057 00:47:52,520 --> 00:47:53,880 Speaker 3: But now I feel like what they need to do 1058 00:47:54,000 --> 00:47:55,160 Speaker 3: is they need to tell us how they're going to 1059 00:47:55,200 --> 00:47:58,120 Speaker 3: make this bike go faster in the next ten, next 1060 00:47:58,239 --> 00:48:00,200 Speaker 3: year or so and from there on it we need 1061 00:48:00,280 --> 00:48:02,800 Speaker 3: a plan for this country to get rich again. That 1062 00:48:02,960 --> 00:48:04,880 Speaker 3: is what we need. We need money in this country. 1063 00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:06,880 Speaker 3: We need a vision and we haven't quite got that 1064 00:48:06,920 --> 00:48:09,279 Speaker 3: from this government yet. So one year in pretty good 1065 00:48:09,719 --> 00:48:12,120 Speaker 3: next bit, I think it's going to be the real test. 1066 00:48:12,840 --> 00:48:16,120 Speaker 1: For ever due for ce Ellen's Okay, here we. 1067 00:48:16,200 --> 00:48:18,760 Speaker 3: Go, as if things couldn't get worse for Sir Quia Stamer. 1068 00:48:18,840 --> 00:48:21,759 Speaker 3: I mean, Jeezu's probably looking at Luxin's government going that 1069 00:48:21,880 --> 00:48:24,800 Speaker 3: looks awesome from where I'm sitting right now. This is 1070 00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:27,880 Speaker 3: the one running the UK brand new government. There is 1071 00:48:27,960 --> 00:48:31,200 Speaker 3: now a petition calling for a new general election over there, 1072 00:48:31,239 --> 00:48:33,839 Speaker 3: and he just had they add one the other day. 1073 00:48:34,200 --> 00:48:36,040 Speaker 3: And this it's not just sort of like change dot 1074 00:48:36,160 --> 00:48:38,800 Speaker 3: org dot NZ. Fifty thousand people have signed it. This 1075 00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:42,319 Speaker 3: petition has now hit one and a half million signatures. 1076 00:48:42,880 --> 00:48:45,520 Speaker 3: So as if he needs anything else to go wrong, 1077 00:48:45,640 --> 00:48:47,000 Speaker 3: this is going wrong for him as well. We're going 1078 00:48:47,040 --> 00:48:49,880 Speaker 3: to speak to Kay Oliver, who is our UK correspondent 1079 00:48:49,920 --> 00:48:51,479 Speaker 3: this evening. She'll be with us called at a seven 1080 00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:52,760 Speaker 3: Headlines next. 1081 00:48:57,840 --> 00:49:00,360 Speaker 2: On your smart speaker, on the iHeart app and in 1082 00:49:00,480 --> 00:49:03,000 Speaker 2: your car on your drive home here the dupleth the 1083 00:49:03,080 --> 00:49:06,520 Speaker 2: Allan drive with one New Zealand. Let's get connected and 1084 00:49:06,600 --> 00:49:07,680 Speaker 2: you talk as they'd. 1085 00:49:07,520 --> 00:49:18,799 Speaker 17: Be now. 1086 00:49:20,880 --> 00:49:22,880 Speaker 3: Whether if you'd ask me a year ago, would I 1087 00:49:22,960 --> 00:49:24,960 Speaker 3: ever admire David cmoy I would have said no. But 1088 00:49:24,960 --> 00:49:27,480 Speaker 3: I'm actually very impressed with him, not especially his politics, 1089 00:49:27,520 --> 00:49:30,160 Speaker 3: but because he speaks. Well, we're going to talk to 1090 00:49:30,160 --> 00:49:32,320 Speaker 3: the huddle about that shortly. It's Tris Sherson. 1091 00:49:32,520 --> 00:49:33,040 Speaker 8: Oh no it's not. 1092 00:49:33,239 --> 00:49:36,000 Speaker 3: It's Joe Speghany who's back from the US. So we'll 1093 00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:37,680 Speaker 3: talk to her about that. As well, that'll be fascinating 1094 00:49:37,680 --> 00:49:40,000 Speaker 3: also David Farah, both of whom have been watching politics 1095 00:49:40,040 --> 00:49:41,880 Speaker 3: and working in it for the longest time, so we'll 1096 00:49:41,920 --> 00:49:43,839 Speaker 3: get their take on how the government's gone one year 1097 00:49:43,920 --> 00:49:48,080 Speaker 3: and in New Zealand. Now g was honestly, I mean 1098 00:49:48,160 --> 00:49:51,280 Speaker 3: talk about a run of bad years for a company 1099 00:49:51,320 --> 00:49:54,800 Speaker 3: and proving unable to turn it around. Air New Zealand 1100 00:49:54,880 --> 00:49:58,319 Speaker 3: has has issued its half yearly earnings guidance and it's 1101 00:49:58,400 --> 00:50:00,640 Speaker 3: down as much as thirty five percent lower than a 1102 00:50:00,760 --> 00:50:03,719 Speaker 3: year ago. They're blaming the engines, so that's kind of 1103 00:50:03,800 --> 00:50:06,319 Speaker 3: out of their hands, I guess to some extent, question 1104 00:50:06,560 --> 00:50:09,880 Speaker 3: is really just the engines anyway. Shane Soley has has 1105 00:50:09,920 --> 00:50:11,600 Speaker 3: been across us all day today. He's going to be 1106 00:50:11,680 --> 00:50:14,080 Speaker 3: with us just about quarter past six or thereabouts. 1107 00:50:14,160 --> 00:50:14,360 Speaker 7: Right now. 1108 00:50:14,400 --> 00:50:15,360 Speaker 3: It's twenty four away. 1109 00:50:15,200 --> 00:50:17,680 Speaker 1: From six, Heather doul So. 1110 00:50:17,800 --> 00:50:20,640 Speaker 3: The police are moving back into Auckland CBD be a 1111 00:50:20,719 --> 00:50:23,640 Speaker 3: new station on Federal Street, just one hundred and seventy 1112 00:50:23,719 --> 00:50:25,719 Speaker 3: meters from the big old police station that police moved 1113 00:50:25,719 --> 00:50:27,240 Speaker 3: out of just a few years ago, and the Minister 1114 00:50:27,320 --> 00:50:30,799 Speaker 3: Mark Mitchell is with us A Mitch Hi Heather, there 1115 00:50:30,920 --> 00:50:33,959 Speaker 3: was one upon a time there was one at Fort Street. 1116 00:50:34,000 --> 00:50:35,319 Speaker 3: You didn't think about opening one there? 1117 00:50:36,680 --> 00:50:39,359 Speaker 20: Well, the Federal Street one is just such a good 1118 00:50:39,440 --> 00:50:45,000 Speaker 20: centralized location. It covers just about the entire CBD, including downtown. 1119 00:50:45,080 --> 00:50:47,800 Speaker 20: So I just think that they thought strategically, you know, 1120 00:50:47,880 --> 00:50:51,479 Speaker 20: it's just a very good location to have a storefront again, 1121 00:50:51,520 --> 00:50:52,960 Speaker 20: which is actually a great announcement. 1122 00:50:53,080 --> 00:50:54,520 Speaker 3: And when are you actually having the storefront? 1123 00:50:55,920 --> 00:50:58,560 Speaker 20: So from what I understand is that when it's finally 1124 00:50:58,600 --> 00:51:01,879 Speaker 20: delivered will be sort of early to mid next year. 1125 00:51:02,160 --> 00:51:04,880 Speaker 3: Okay, was it a mistake then to close down the 1126 00:51:04,920 --> 00:51:06,600 Speaker 3: one just down the road at Meryl Drive. 1127 00:51:08,000 --> 00:51:11,320 Speaker 20: Look, obviously those were decisions that were taken on previous 1128 00:51:11,880 --> 00:51:14,960 Speaker 20: by previous governments. I know that I had a policing 1129 00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:17,399 Speaker 20: career myself. I started at it as a beat cop 1130 00:51:17,480 --> 00:51:21,520 Speaker 20: in the CBD, and it was good having police officers 1131 00:51:21,560 --> 00:51:24,359 Speaker 20: operating out of what was then the Wharf Police Station. 1132 00:51:24,520 --> 00:51:27,400 Speaker 20: It was quite a popular place to go all beat constables. 1133 00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:29,799 Speaker 20: But I think the Federal Street option is just such 1134 00:51:29,800 --> 00:51:33,840 Speaker 20: a good option that centralized our beat officers are covering 1135 00:51:33,880 --> 00:51:37,239 Speaker 20: the entire CBD. The feedback and anecdotal feedback has just 1136 00:51:37,280 --> 00:51:42,400 Speaker 20: been fantastic from shopkeepers, the retailers, residents, people coming in 1137 00:51:42,480 --> 00:51:45,239 Speaker 20: to work in the CBD. It really has had a 1138 00:51:45,280 --> 00:51:46,960 Speaker 20: big impact. But I just want to say that it's 1139 00:51:47,000 --> 00:51:49,879 Speaker 20: been a team effort.

Why was he wearing 1146 00:52:09,320 --> 00:52:09,760 Speaker 3: that patch? 1147 00:52:11,000 --> 00:52:11,600 Speaker 1: Look, I don't know. 1148 00:52:11,640 --> 00:52:13,840 Speaker 20: I'm not going to speak for him obviously, you know, 1149 00:52:14,280 --> 00:52:17,160 Speaker 20: disappointed that that happened, and I know that he'll be 1150 00:52:17,280 --> 00:52:20,640 Speaker 20: feeling worse than anyone in terms of you know, it's 1151 00:52:20,680 --> 00:52:22,800 Speaker 20: a poor reflection and he'll really be feeling it. But 1152 00:52:23,640 --> 00:52:24,840 Speaker 20: you know, at the end of the day, the police 1153 00:52:24,840 --> 00:52:25,840 Speaker 20: will deal with it internally. 1154 00:52:26,840 --> 00:52:29,480 Speaker 3: Was it, Because what I'm interested in knowing is just 1155 00:52:29,560 --> 00:52:33,120 Speaker 3: whether he was sympathetic towards the gang or whether he 1156 00:52:33,440 --> 00:52:36,360 Speaker 3: had confiscated at some stage for whatever reason and was 1157 00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:37,680 Speaker 3: putting it on just being a bit silly. 1158 00:52:38,840 --> 00:52:41,279 Speaker 20: I don't think it was being sympathetic towards the gang, 1159 00:52:41,840 --> 00:52:43,759 Speaker 20: but I don't want to speculate and I don't want 1160 00:52:43,800 --> 00:52:46,520 Speaker 20: to speak for him, and the police now obviously deal 1161 00:52:46,600 --> 00:52:47,240 Speaker 20: with it internally. 1162 00:52:47,360 --> 00:52:50,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, And what's going to happen to the police officers 1163 00:52:50,760 --> 00:52:53,320 Speaker 3: who left the Prime minister's itinerary on the dashboard? 1164 00:52:54,040 --> 00:52:54,160 Speaker 5: Oh? 1165 00:52:54,200 --> 00:52:56,120 Speaker 20: I think I think they'll get a bit of a 1166 00:52:56,160 --> 00:52:58,480 Speaker 20: reminder not to do that. But look, at the end 1167 00:52:58,480 --> 00:53:01,040 Speaker 20: of the day, we're all human and we all make mistakes, 1168 00:53:01,080 --> 00:53:03,040 Speaker 20: and it was it was a minimum one, but it 1169 00:53:03,120 --> 00:53:05,799 Speaker 20: was a good reminder and I'm sure it won't happen again. 1170 00:53:06,120 --> 00:53:06,839 Speaker 5: I've got no idea. 1171 00:53:06,880 --> 00:53:09,000 Speaker 20: I don't know what was on it actually, Okay. 1172 00:53:08,800 --> 00:53:11,560 Speaker 3: So it was like pops into bakery that type of thing, 1173 00:53:11,680 --> 00:53:12,960 Speaker 3: rather than it might have been there. 1174 00:53:12,840 --> 00:53:14,640 Speaker 20: It might it might have been might have been some 1175 00:53:14,760 --> 00:53:17,360 Speaker 20: of the prime ministers itinery. But at the end of 1176 00:53:17,400 --> 00:53:20,440 Speaker 20: the day, most of that is pretty well, it's already 1177 00:53:20,520 --> 00:53:21,960 Speaker 20: been broadcast ahead of time. 1178 00:53:22,000 --> 00:53:22,920 Speaker 5: In terms of where he's going. 1179 00:53:23,040 --> 00:53:25,360 Speaker 3: It's not like anybody is very cross with Luxan, is it. 1180 00:53:25,480 --> 00:53:27,040 Speaker 3: He's not on that a huge amount of threat, is he. 1181 00:53:29,560 --> 00:53:34,200 Speaker 20: I'm not going to comment on that.

And look, 1185 00:53:43,440 --> 00:53:45,319 Speaker 20: at the end of the day, everyone recognizes the fact 1186 00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:49,279 Speaker 20: that that was a breaking, a break in protocol. It's 1187 00:53:49,320 --> 00:53:51,160 Speaker 20: a good reminder. I don't think it was DPS. I 1188 00:53:51,200 --> 00:53:54,080 Speaker 20: think it was a police officers sort of supporting the visit. 1189 00:53:54,320 --> 00:53:57,320 Speaker 20: And but you know, like I said, we're all human 1190 00:53:57,800 --> 00:53:59,600 Speaker 20: and we will make mistakes, and I'm sure they won't 1191 00:53:59,600 --> 00:54:00,640 Speaker 20: do it again too, right, we do. 1192 00:54:00,640 --> 00:54:02,360 Speaker 3: All right, Mark, thank you very much.

How 1202 00:54:22,320 --> 00:54:25,479 Speaker 3: are you guys, Hello, Josie, how do you feel about 1203 00:54:25,480 --> 00:54:25,880 Speaker 3: the hucker? 1204 00:54:27,440 --> 00:54:30,080 Speaker 12: Well, look, he says he did it for good intentions, 1205 00:54:30,120 --> 00:54:33,280 Speaker 12: I'm sure he did. He's motivated by showing some unity 1206 00:54:34,719 --> 00:54:36,719 Speaker 12: as a nation. But the problem is, I think that's 1207 00:54:36,760 --> 00:54:39,239 Speaker 12: a bit naive. I mean, you imagine you're waiving the 1208 00:54:39,280 --> 00:54:41,600 Speaker 12: mun and we're to hockey flag. You imagine if it 1209 00:54:41,640 --> 00:54:44,439 Speaker 12: had been I don't know, the Palestinian flag or something, 1210 00:54:44,480 --> 00:54:46,040 Speaker 12: and you're trying to say, oh, I'm just doing it 1211 00:54:46,200 --> 00:54:48,479 Speaker 12: for healing and peace, and I just calling for peace, 1212 00:54:48,600 --> 00:54:53,000 Speaker 12: it would be seen politically agree Yeah. Oh sorry, I 1213 00:54:53,040 --> 00:54:55,840 Speaker 12: thought I'd just been cut off there. But yeah, So 1214 00:54:55,960 --> 00:54:59,160 Speaker 12: I think it's naive. And secondly, I think that you know, 1215 00:54:59,280 --> 00:55:01,600 Speaker 12: if you're going in principle, if you're going to say 1216 00:55:01,760 --> 00:55:05,160 Speaker 12: you can use the hucker for you know, showing solidarity 1217 00:55:05,239 --> 00:55:07,760 Speaker 12: for the HIKOI you actually have to follow the principle 1218 00:55:07,840 --> 00:55:10,279 Speaker 12: through and agree that you have to be happy to 1219 00:55:10,480 --> 00:55:12,759 Speaker 12: use the hukker for something that you don't agree with. 1220 00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:16,000 Speaker 12: So you imagine, I don't know if Israel Flow or 1221 00:55:16,080 --> 00:55:20,520 Speaker 12: something who had very controversial views around same sex relationships, 1222 00:55:20,560 --> 00:55:22,439 Speaker 12: but he managed to get you know, his all Blacks 1223 00:55:22,480 --> 00:55:24,200 Speaker 12: team on side and the all Blacks and so on. 1224 00:55:24,960 --> 00:55:27,200 Speaker 12: If that had happened, we be outraged, right, I mean, 1225 00:55:27,200 --> 00:55:29,279 Speaker 12: I think the principle. If you're going to use the 1226 00:55:29,400 --> 00:55:32,080 Speaker 12: hauker politically, you have to be prepared for it to 1227 00:55:32,160 --> 00:55:34,239 Speaker 12: be used for something that you don't always agree with. 1228 00:55:34,680 --> 00:55:35,759 Speaker 12: And that's where the problem is. 1229 00:55:35,880 --> 00:55:39,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, what do you reckon, David on the personal live? 1230 00:55:39,160 --> 00:55:43,480 Speaker 7: Of course, any sportsperson can make any political statement they want, right, 1231 00:55:43,600 --> 00:55:47,680 Speaker 7: there's there, right, absolutely, But it's really stupid because what 1232 00:55:48,000 --> 00:55:51,840 Speaker 7: it doesn't unify When you decide to use your walking 1233 00:55:51,960 --> 00:55:55,920 Speaker 7: position to make political stance, half the country probably doesn't 1234 00:55:55,960 --> 00:55:59,840 Speaker 7: agree with you. And you do it enough, and the 1235 00:56:00,080 --> 00:56:03,560 Speaker 7: has happened in America with the NFL, etc. People start 1236 00:56:03,640 --> 00:56:08,719 Speaker 7: switching off because it's hard to get enthusiastic about your 1237 00:56:08,800 --> 00:56:13,680 Speaker 7: favorite players and teams if you think they dramatically disagree 1238 00:56:13,760 --> 00:56:17,120 Speaker 7: with me and don't respect what I think. And that's 1239 00:56:17,160 --> 00:56:18,719 Speaker 7: one of its best for them not to do the 1240 00:56:18,760 --> 00:56:21,560 Speaker 7: polity every right to. But there are consequences. 1241 00:56:21,680 --> 00:56:23,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree with that, Josey. 1242 00:56:24,040 --> 00:56:24,560 Speaker 21: I do think. 1243 00:56:24,680 --> 00:56:26,839 Speaker 12: I do think though, that people who are all sort 1244 00:56:26,840 --> 00:56:29,680 Speaker 12: of canceling their Sky subscriptions and so on, that you know, 1245 00:56:30,040 --> 00:56:32,239 Speaker 12: we'll all smell the selling smelling salts and we'll all 1246 00:56:32,280 --> 00:56:34,200 Speaker 12: get over it, because it's not actually the biggest problem 1247 00:56:34,360 --> 00:56:36,399 Speaker 12: that faces the country right now. There's a whole bunch 1248 00:56:36,440 --> 00:56:39,120 Speaker 12: of other problems, and I just think we're pissed off 1249 00:56:39,120 --> 00:56:41,200 Speaker 12: about it, or people are pissed off about it because 1250 00:56:41,920 --> 00:56:44,440 Speaker 12: you know, as you said, David, that half the country 1251 00:56:44,520 --> 00:56:46,800 Speaker 12: don't agree with this, so they're going, oh, you know, 1252 00:56:46,880 --> 00:56:49,200 Speaker 12: we don't like you making a political statement. And again 1253 00:56:49,280 --> 00:56:50,920 Speaker 12: that's what I'm saying is that if you if you 1254 00:56:51,040 --> 00:56:53,000 Speaker 12: agree with it for those who think it was a 1255 00:56:53,080 --> 00:56:55,920 Speaker 12: brave thing for him to do and they agree with 1256 00:56:56,000 --> 00:56:59,200 Speaker 12: his politics, you have to be prepared to agree with 1257 00:56:59,320 --> 00:57:01,960 Speaker 12: someone who does it for something you don't agree with you. 1258 00:57:02,040 --> 00:57:04,360 Speaker 12: And I don't think that's where the problem is, David. 1259 00:57:04,440 --> 00:57:07,279 Speaker 3: I tell you what I was thinking. The thing is 1260 00:57:07,400 --> 00:57:09,880 Speaker 3: you say like half the country disagrees, is actually at 1261 00:57:09,880 --> 00:57:12,440 Speaker 3: the last polling that you did, was the last polling 1262 00:57:12,480 --> 00:57:16,080 Speaker 3: that we've got, it's actually something more like two thirds 1263 00:57:16,200 --> 00:57:18,560 Speaker 3: of people who actually had an opinion would have been 1264 00:57:18,600 --> 00:57:20,880 Speaker 3: in support of the general idea of the Treaty Principle's 1265 00:57:20,920 --> 00:57:24,720 Speaker 3: referendum versus one third who wasn't. But why I'm telling 1266 00:57:24,760 --> 00:57:26,040 Speaker 3: you this is because I want to know where's the 1267 00:57:26,080 --> 00:57:28,200 Speaker 3: next lot of polling. Are you guys not polling on 1268 00:57:28,280 --> 00:57:28,840 Speaker 3: this anymore. 1269 00:57:30,720 --> 00:57:34,120 Speaker 7: Well, look, we have a monthly poll that was we 1270 00:57:34,520 --> 00:57:37,240 Speaker 7: did a poll last October on it. We did another 1271 00:57:37,360 --> 00:57:42,640 Speaker 7: one in October. Wants the government announce new principles, and 1272 00:57:42,960 --> 00:57:45,919 Speaker 7: seeing they've now had slightly different principles in the bill 1273 00:57:46,000 --> 00:57:49,120 Speaker 7: they introduce, it is our our intention to have a 1274 00:57:49,240 --> 00:57:52,080 Speaker 7: poll in our December on the Boss and it'd be 1275 00:57:52,280 --> 00:57:56,440 Speaker 7: very interesting to see what comes up because any changes 1276 00:57:56,560 --> 00:57:59,560 Speaker 7: may reflect the slightly different wording, or it may reflect 1277 00:57:59,640 --> 00:58:02,280 Speaker 7: that Peace Paul agree with the opponents, or it might 1278 00:58:02,360 --> 00:58:04,760 Speaker 7: reflect that actually the opponents have turned them off. So 1279 00:58:05,720 --> 00:58:08,360 Speaker 7: what's for mid December for the latest polling. 1280 00:58:08,640 --> 00:58:11,520 Speaker 12: We know what though, David, I reckon that people aren't 1281 00:58:11,520 --> 00:58:15,919 Speaker 12: even reading the David Seymour Act, Treaty Principals Bill, et cetera, 1282 00:58:15,960 --> 00:58:18,080 Speaker 12: et cetera, because the whole thing has just been pitched 1283 00:58:18,160 --> 00:58:21,120 Speaker 12: now is that you're either for Mary or anti Marty. 1284 00:58:21,840 --> 00:58:25,520 Speaker 12: And whether you've read the Principal Treaty Principal Bill or not, 1285 00:58:25,840 --> 00:58:27,400 Speaker 12: or whatever you think about it, I don't think any 1286 00:58:27,520 --> 00:58:30,240 Speaker 12: changing in the wording will change anything. It's now been 1287 00:58:30,360 --> 00:58:33,960 Speaker 12: very successfully framed as pro or anti Mary. 1288 00:58:34,400 --> 00:58:38,040 Speaker 7: They're very right Josie. But when we pull on it, 1289 00:58:38,160 --> 00:58:41,880 Speaker 7: we actually read the proposed principles out and you're right 1290 00:58:42,000 --> 00:58:44,920 Speaker 7: too that if you guys asked about the bill generally 1291 00:58:45,120 --> 00:58:48,040 Speaker 7: you can get a different response to these are the 1292 00:58:48,160 --> 00:58:50,960 Speaker 7: proposed principles, Do you agree or disagree on them? And 1293 00:58:51,320 --> 00:58:54,720 Speaker 7: give me a weeber away here in a December poll, 1294 00:58:55,000 --> 00:58:57,800 Speaker 7: We're actually going to break them down to the three 1295 00:58:57,960 --> 00:59:02,240 Speaker 7: separate proposed principles to see if we can find where 1296 00:59:02,400 --> 00:59:05,080 Speaker 7: is there more agreement and disagreement I speak. We're going 1297 00:59:05,160 --> 00:59:07,880 Speaker 7: to find that very few people disagree with the first 1298 00:59:07,920 --> 00:59:11,360 Speaker 7: and third principles, which is about the government can government quality, 1299 00:59:11,800 --> 00:59:13,800 Speaker 7: and it will be the second one. Hopefully that will 1300 00:59:13,840 --> 00:59:16,320 Speaker 7: help the public discussion because if we can actually say 1301 00:59:16,800 --> 00:59:20,000 Speaker 7: we don't all disagree on everything, it's actually just the 1302 00:59:20,120 --> 00:59:22,320 Speaker 7: wording of one of the principles, that could be a 1303 00:59:22,360 --> 00:59:24,640 Speaker 7: good thing. But who knows what the results are, right. 1304 00:59:24,560 --> 00:59:26,720 Speaker 3: I'm going to be absolutely fascinated, Thank you, David. But 1305 00:59:26,800 --> 00:59:29,480 Speaker 3: now I've got something to look forward to, apart from 1306 00:59:29,520 --> 00:59:32,040 Speaker 3: obviously Christmas, like everybody else, come back to you guys, 1307 00:59:32,080 --> 00:59:32,960 Speaker 3: and just to take quarter. 1308 00:59:32,840 --> 00:59:37,320 Speaker 2: Two the Huddle with New Zealand Southeby's international realty, elevate 1309 00:59:37,360 --> 00:59:38,560 Speaker 2: the marketing of your home. 1310 00:59:38,840 --> 00:59:41,120 Speaker 3: Right back with the heart of David Phara, Joe Speghani, David, 1311 00:59:41,160 --> 00:59:43,120 Speaker 3: what do you reckon? How's the government going? One year in? 1312 00:59:44,840 --> 00:59:48,920 Speaker 7: Pretty good? Actually, I locked around the world and you've 1313 00:59:48,960 --> 00:59:51,080 Speaker 7: had all these governments like you look in the UK, 1314 00:59:51,960 --> 00:59:55,120 Speaker 7: came in with a massive lead and twelve months on 1315 00:59:55,440 --> 00:59:58,800 Speaker 7: they're vuly. Like you know, Keir Starmer is underwater in 1316 00:59:58,880 --> 01:00:01,840 Speaker 7: his ratings and I think what you see here is 1317 01:00:01,920 --> 01:00:05,080 Speaker 7: it's just been solid. They're not more popular, not particularly 1318 01:00:05,160 --> 01:00:07,920 Speaker 7: less popular when they came and Luxin is kept around 1319 01:00:07,960 --> 01:00:10,240 Speaker 7: in a bridge of a plus three percent approval rating, 1320 01:00:10,360 --> 01:00:12,880 Speaker 7: et cetera. And sure you can look at the John 1321 01:00:12,960 --> 01:00:16,320 Speaker 7: Kia and say, oh he doesn't compare that, but you 1322 01:00:16,440 --> 01:00:21,560 Speaker 7: look at Australia, Canada, UK, America, et cetera, and things 1323 01:00:21,600 --> 01:00:24,920 Speaker 7: are pretty good. I think the biggest achievement, and this 1324 01:00:25,040 --> 01:00:27,280 Speaker 7: will send a bit funny, is making Erica stand for 1325 01:00:27,360 --> 01:00:30,960 Speaker 7: the education minister. I think what she is doing the 1326 01:00:31,520 --> 01:00:35,800 Speaker 7: so quickly and with such determination is so important and 1327 01:00:37,040 --> 01:00:41,760 Speaker 7: is by far got the most positive payoffice as. 1328 01:00:46,120 --> 01:00:46,240 Speaker 5: Well. 1329 01:00:46,280 --> 01:00:46,919 Speaker 12: Aren't we all. 1330 01:00:48,920 --> 01:00:53,360 Speaker 7: Looks like melting her house? Who you wouldn't be surprised 1331 01:00:53,440 --> 01:00:56,200 Speaker 7: they whispered there under their breath, But I was honestly 1332 01:00:56,320 --> 01:00:59,240 Speaker 7: surprised it was Erica. It just shows you human, like 1333 01:00:59,320 --> 01:01:01,600 Speaker 7: all what you know what after. 1334 01:01:01,520 --> 01:01:04,000 Speaker 3: She called after she called Jen a stupid b ward. 1335 01:01:04,320 --> 01:01:06,440 Speaker 3: Then I started hearing about all the other stuff that 1336 01:01:06,600 --> 01:01:08,760 Speaker 3: Erica says and all the pot he is not even 1337 01:01:08,800 --> 01:01:11,200 Speaker 3: that bad out of Erica's mouth, And it totally surprised me. 1338 01:01:11,280 --> 01:01:13,160 Speaker 3: Did you know that she's small like this, Josey. 1339 01:01:13,960 --> 01:01:16,040 Speaker 12: No, I didn't, And and I kind of like that 1340 01:01:16,160 --> 01:01:19,400 Speaker 12: in a person. I mean obviously not on air news 1341 01:01:19,440 --> 01:01:22,919 Speaker 12: to z B drive time, but yes, it makes a human. 1342 01:01:23,120 --> 01:01:26,680 Speaker 12: But look when I look at the government now, you know, yes, 1343 01:01:26,720 --> 01:01:29,240 Speaker 12: they're not in trouble like Keir Starmer's government in terms 1344 01:01:29,280 --> 01:01:32,240 Speaker 12: of popularity. I think they do have a vision. I 1345 01:01:32,320 --> 01:01:34,640 Speaker 12: think the biggest failure, which is going to get bigger 1346 01:01:34,680 --> 01:01:37,480 Speaker 12: and bigger for them is their inability to explain it. 1347 01:01:38,160 --> 01:01:42,600 Speaker 12: And if you take me, then well yeah, so it's 1348 01:01:42,640 --> 01:01:44,400 Speaker 12: not my job to explain it. But what I think 1349 01:01:44,480 --> 01:01:48,160 Speaker 12: it is, Heather is is basically we were elected as 1350 01:01:48,480 --> 01:01:50,920 Speaker 12: as Jacinda Ardun was elected on a kind of wish 1351 01:01:51,440 --> 01:01:55,240 Speaker 12: for a government to do something about child poverty, about inequality. 1352 01:01:55,280 --> 01:01:58,120 Speaker 12: There was a real sense of transformation was needed. They 1353 01:01:58,200 --> 01:02:01,680 Speaker 12: were elected on a promise of chain the economy, get 1354 01:02:01,720 --> 01:02:04,800 Speaker 12: the economy working again and so on, and competent management. 1355 01:02:05,160 --> 01:02:07,360 Speaker 12: And I think this what the problem is. They haven't 1356 01:02:07,440 --> 01:02:11,439 Speaker 12: really been able to explain an exciting vision. It gets 1357 01:02:11,560 --> 01:02:13,919 Speaker 12: people going, Okay, I get it. So if you take 1358 01:02:14,000 --> 01:02:16,680 Speaker 12: the he Corey as an example, that was a moment 1359 01:02:16,920 --> 01:02:19,840 Speaker 12: where any leader needs to step up and stand up 1360 01:02:19,840 --> 01:02:22,280 Speaker 12: in front of people and go The reason I have 1361 01:02:22,440 --> 01:02:26,200 Speaker 12: let this Treaty principal bill through is because I believe 1362 01:02:26,520 --> 01:02:29,000 Speaker 12: in a democratic debate. I don't agree with the bill. 1363 01:02:29,280 --> 01:02:31,120 Speaker 12: So he kind of said it, but he said it, 1364 01:02:31,280 --> 01:02:33,760 Speaker 12: he says it in a sort of managerial way. And 1365 01:02:33,880 --> 01:02:35,959 Speaker 12: I think that's the problem for them, is that they're 1366 01:02:36,000 --> 01:02:40,800 Speaker 12: doing incremental change. And you mentioned Erica Stanford. You're right, David, 1367 01:02:40,920 --> 01:02:43,280 Speaker 12: She's come in with a good plan to getting you know, 1368 01:02:43,400 --> 01:02:46,280 Speaker 12: an hour of maths, you know, compulsory mass and so on, 1369 01:02:46,800 --> 01:02:49,120 Speaker 12: but it's not going to be enough to do something 1370 01:02:49,160 --> 01:02:52,120 Speaker 12: where I think it's like with health, you need massive transformation. 1371 01:02:52,560 --> 01:02:55,840 Speaker 12: You cannot solve that long tail and education with just 1372 01:02:55,960 --> 01:02:58,320 Speaker 12: one hour of mass a week or whatever. So that 1373 01:02:58,440 --> 01:03:02,480 Speaker 12: I think they're failing to real communicate an exciting vision 1374 01:03:02,520 --> 01:03:05,240 Speaker 12: and get people feeling really passionate about it. 1375 01:03:05,760 --> 01:03:08,120 Speaker 3: I felt David a little bit sorry for David seymore 1376 01:03:08,160 --> 01:03:10,600 Speaker 3: to hear that Luxon and Amanda and Winnipe and Jan 1377 01:03:10,640 --> 01:03:14,000 Speaker 3: are going on double dates together over dinner and David's 1378 01:03:14,040 --> 01:03:14,680 Speaker 3: been left out. 1379 01:03:16,400 --> 01:03:18,840 Speaker 7: Maybe it's actually I think he does have a partner 1380 01:03:19,360 --> 01:03:24,240 Speaker 7: does Yeah, yeah, but sometimes you need to spend more 1381 01:03:24,400 --> 01:03:27,560 Speaker 7: time on what can be the more challenging relationship. I 1382 01:03:27,680 --> 01:03:31,880 Speaker 7: don't mean once all accounts has actually been a sternly 1383 01:03:32,000 --> 01:03:36,040 Speaker 7: good coalition partner, but there is more history with Winston. 1384 01:03:36,200 --> 01:03:39,560 Speaker 7: Like Winston you did have the big divorce with the 1385 01:03:39,680 --> 01:03:40,400 Speaker 7: National government. 1386 01:03:40,480 --> 01:03:41,080 Speaker 1: There, come on. 1387 01:03:43,240 --> 01:03:46,560 Speaker 3: Fun to have dinner with because he hits the whisky exactly, Heather. 1388 01:03:46,680 --> 01:03:48,680 Speaker 12: I was just going to say that it's about who's 1389 01:03:48,760 --> 01:03:50,840 Speaker 12: more fun to have dinner with, although I'm sure David 1390 01:03:50,920 --> 01:03:54,120 Speaker 12: is you know, God has got anecdotes and can sort 1391 01:03:54,120 --> 01:03:57,120 Speaker 12: of amuse it dinner party. But yeah, I think it's 1392 01:03:57,200 --> 01:04:01,080 Speaker 12: to do with a personal connection perhaps between Winston Peters 1393 01:04:01,200 --> 01:04:03,880 Speaker 12: and Luxelon. And it was probably again a little bit 1394 01:04:04,040 --> 01:04:07,080 Speaker 12: sort of politically naive to even have suggested that, you know, 1395 01:04:07,200 --> 01:04:09,560 Speaker 12: Winston and I have dinners and we do double dating, 1396 01:04:10,080 --> 01:04:12,600 Speaker 12: and David and I have meetings. It's like, oh, I'm 1397 01:04:12,640 --> 01:04:13,440 Speaker 12: not sure that's. 1398 01:04:13,360 --> 01:04:17,800 Speaker 3: Helping now, Yeah, that's really going to make David be 1399 01:04:17,920 --> 01:04:19,720 Speaker 3: nice to you in public.

So when your mum tells you off, 1412 01:04:54,720 --> 01:04:57,200 Speaker 3: and I'm thinking about my own personal circumstances here, when 1413 01:04:57,240 --> 01:05:00,360 Speaker 3: your mum tells you off for just randomly pep every 1414 01:05:00,400 --> 01:05:03,720 Speaker 3: other sentence with F bombs, you just say it's because 1415 01:05:03,720 --> 01:05:06,520 Speaker 3: I'm honest. And that's a wonderful attribute to having a chance. 1416 01:05:06,680 --> 01:05:08,680 Speaker 22: Kids listening, get a second opinion on this before you 1417 01:05:08,760 --> 01:05:10,480 Speaker 22: try it, please actually try it. 1418 01:05:10,800 --> 01:05:13,880 Speaker 3: Try it with your parents, see see how it goes down. 1419 01:05:14,600 --> 01:05:16,920 Speaker 3: Why not you're going to try it with anybody.

It has got to the point. 1422 01:05:23,400 --> 01:05:24,280 Speaker 12: So I do I do. 1423 01:05:24,920 --> 01:05:30,800 Speaker 3: I do love the odd invective for the purposes of reinforcement. 1424 01:05:30,840 --> 01:05:32,720 Speaker 3: You know, it just makes your statement feel a lot better, 1425 01:05:32,800 --> 01:05:36,680 Speaker 3: doesn't it, Like it really introduces a passion into your sentence. Anyway, 1426 01:05:37,120 --> 01:05:40,640 Speaker 3: the other day, the husband did something and I dropped 1427 01:05:40,640 --> 01:05:43,880 Speaker 3: the F bomb. I said if mate to him, and 1428 01:05:44,080 --> 01:05:47,760 Speaker 3: the baby said if mate back to me, and I thought, 1429 01:05:47,840 --> 01:05:50,880 Speaker 3: and there I end my swearing because little mate at 1430 01:05:50,960 --> 01:05:52,920 Speaker 3: three is talking a lot and we don't need to 1431 01:05:53,040 --> 01:05:56,280 Speaker 3: going to Kendy and repeating that. So yeah, just like 1432 01:05:56,680 --> 01:05:58,680 Speaker 3: you know, you can be a potty mouth mummy, but 1433 01:05:58,720 --> 01:05:59,880 Speaker 3: you don't want to do it in front the children. 1434 01:06:00,000 --> 01:06:03,960 Speaker 3: I think we're all learning that lesson. Hey, listen, taxpayers Union. Now, 1435 01:06:04,000 --> 01:06:06,360 Speaker 3: I like the taxpayers Union because I like keeping people 1436 01:06:06,360 --> 01:06:08,640 Speaker 3: accountable with the money and stuff like that. But I'm 1437 01:06:08,680 --> 01:06:10,280 Speaker 3: gonna pull them up on this. This is going a 1438 01:06:10,320 --> 01:06:12,440 Speaker 3: bit far. They've put out a press release and they're 1439 01:06:12,440 --> 01:06:14,000 Speaker 3: having a crack at TV and Z because TV and 1440 01:06:14,080 --> 01:06:16,960 Speaker 3: Z has blown sixty four thousand dollars on Christmas parties 1441 01:06:17,040 --> 01:06:21,240 Speaker 3: for two years now. That's thirty two thousand dollars a year, 1442 01:06:21,760 --> 01:06:24,160 Speaker 3: and they've got six hundred staff, So that's fifty three 1443 01:06:24,200 --> 01:06:26,440 Speaker 3: dollars ahead. What does fifty three even buy you? Does 1444 01:06:26,480 --> 01:06:28,800 Speaker 3: that even buy you six beers? Does it even buy 1445 01:06:28,840 --> 01:06:33,480 Speaker 3: you five beers? Like, come on, think about how miserable 1446 01:06:33,480 --> 01:06:35,360 Speaker 3: it is to work at TV and Z already right, 1447 01:06:35,600 --> 01:06:37,720 Speaker 3: that's that's not a fun place to work. They are 1448 01:06:37,720 --> 01:06:40,640 Speaker 3: already have they're losing their jobs, and they're also public servants. 1449 01:06:40,720 --> 01:06:42,960 Speaker 3: And then got to toe the line, you know, can't 1450 01:06:43,040 --> 01:06:45,560 Speaker 3: possibly oppose the he Corey et cetera, et cetera. They 1451 01:06:45,600 --> 01:06:47,840 Speaker 3: are entitled to have just a few beers at Christmas time. 1452 01:06:47,960 --> 01:06:50,640 Speaker 3: Lay off them on that one, please, Everything else is okay? 1453 01:06:50,760 --> 01:06:59,480 Speaker 3: Nikolaula's next, what's hard? 1454 01:07:00,080 --> 01:07:02,440 Speaker 1: What's down?

How much are we putting into that climate 1466 01:07:33,240 --> 01:07:33,919 Speaker 3: finance fund? 1467 01:07:34,920 --> 01:07:37,320 Speaker 23: Well, look, we haven't made a decision on that yet. 1468 01:07:37,480 --> 01:07:39,440 Speaker 23: There's no set amount that we need to put in. 1469 01:07:39,600 --> 01:07:43,800 Speaker 23: Each country decides its contribution. Our last current climate finance 1470 01:07:43,840 --> 01:07:46,360 Speaker 23: commitment for twenty two to twenty five was one point 1471 01:07:46,400 --> 01:07:49,160 Speaker 23: three billion. That obviously ends at the end of next 1472 01:07:49,240 --> 01:07:51,320 Speaker 23: year and we'll then decide on our next commitment. 1473 01:07:51,480 --> 01:07:53,840 Speaker 3: That's one point three billion over three years, right, So 1474 01:07:54,160 --> 01:07:56,520 Speaker 3: that's right, yeah, yeah, or three or four years or something, 1475 01:07:56,600 --> 01:07:58,440 Speaker 3: because it works out at two hundred and thirty five. Now, 1476 01:07:58,520 --> 01:08:00,960 Speaker 3: if the total package to the total path from the 1477 01:08:01,040 --> 01:08:02,840 Speaker 3: rich countries to the poor countries has gone from one 1478 01:08:02,920 --> 01:08:05,480 Speaker 3: hundred billion to five hundred billion, so it's up five times. 1479 01:08:05,840 --> 01:08:08,040 Speaker 3: Is our contribution not naturally therefore going to go up 1480 01:08:08,080 --> 01:08:08,640 Speaker 3: five times? 1481 01:08:09,320 --> 01:08:11,240 Speaker 23: Well, look, we will always do our part to support 1482 01:08:11,280 --> 01:08:14,360 Speaker 23: global efforts on climate change and climate finance, but there 1483 01:08:14,440 --> 01:08:17,799 Speaker 23: isn't a specific target or amount that each country must contribute. 1484 01:08:17,880 --> 01:08:20,799 Speaker 23: So we as a cabinet need to weigh that contribution 1485 01:08:20,920 --> 01:08:23,240 Speaker 23: against all of the other contributions we make in terms 1486 01:08:23,280 --> 01:08:26,320 Speaker 23: of aid, in terms of development, in terms of what 1487 01:08:26,400 --> 01:08:29,559 Speaker 23: we're doing with our own technology, research and science here 1488 01:08:29,600 --> 01:08:29,960 Speaker 23: at home. 1489 01:08:30,240 --> 01:08:31,400 Speaker 3: Is it definitely going to go up? 1490 01:08:33,080 --> 01:08:36,200 Speaker 23: There's nothing definite heither. This is something for Anectos as 1491 01:08:36,200 --> 01:08:37,000 Speaker 23: a cabinet and make. 1492 01:08:37,000 --> 01:08:38,720 Speaker 3: Choices about can we make it go down? 1493 01:08:39,960 --> 01:08:42,040 Speaker 23: Well, as I said, look, our last contribution was one 1494 01:08:42,080 --> 01:08:45,040 Speaker 23: point three over four. There are questions for us to 1495 01:08:45,160 --> 01:08:47,440 Speaker 23: answer about do we want to make an annual contribution, 1496 01:08:47,680 --> 01:08:50,800 Speaker 23: do we want to have that multi year contribution and 1497 01:08:51,120 --> 01:08:53,320 Speaker 23: all of that things that were yet to step through. 1498 01:08:53,600 --> 01:08:55,400 Speaker 23: I haven't even taken advice on it yet. 1499 01:08:55,560 --> 01:08:56,840 Speaker 3: What is this money being used for? 1500 01:08:58,479 --> 01:09:01,439 Speaker 23: Well, it goes towards those developing countries to help them 1501 01:09:01,520 --> 01:09:03,840 Speaker 23: lower their emissions. So you think of the likes of 1502 01:09:04,560 --> 01:09:08,760 Speaker 23: African countries that are still relying on coal power stations 1503 01:09:09,360 --> 01:09:13,000 Speaker 23: helping them convert. The basic argument being that some of 1504 01:09:13,040 --> 01:09:16,320 Speaker 23: those countries haven't yet gone through the development that the 1505 01:09:16,400 --> 01:09:19,040 Speaker 23: rest of the world has and being asked to make 1506 01:09:19,080 --> 01:09:21,160 Speaker 23: the transition of keys existence the same. 1507 01:09:21,360 --> 01:09:23,320 Speaker 3: We're facing the same trouble, right We've got a mountain 1508 01:09:23,360 --> 01:09:25,519 Speaker 3: of coal sitting at Huntley because we're also struggling with 1509 01:09:25,560 --> 01:09:29,200 Speaker 3: the transition, Like, how can we justify giving money away 1510 01:09:29,600 --> 01:09:33,160 Speaker 3: to help other people convert when we ourselves are struggling 1511 01:09:33,320 --> 01:09:34,040 Speaker 3: we need the money. 1512 01:09:34,680 --> 01:09:37,639 Speaker 23: Look, I'm sympathetic to the view that says we should 1513 01:09:37,760 --> 01:09:40,640 Speaker 23: really make sure we're doing things right at home. But 1514 01:09:40,800 --> 01:09:43,400 Speaker 23: this is a bit similar to the aid argument in general, 1515 01:09:43,560 --> 01:09:46,200 Speaker 23: which is yes, in New Zealand, we still have challenges 1516 01:09:46,240 --> 01:09:49,720 Speaker 23: in our own health system, our own education system. Yet 1517 01:09:49,920 --> 01:09:53,760 Speaker 23: as global citizens, we recognize our role in making contributions 1518 01:09:53,800 --> 01:09:57,400 Speaker 23: to countries that are far, far, far less well off 1519 01:09:57,439 --> 01:09:57,640 Speaker 23: than we. 1520 01:09:58,560 --> 01:10:00,200 Speaker 12: We're just part of being a global sit I. 1521 01:10:00,200 --> 01:10:02,400 Speaker 3: Take it same principle. But if you think about our 1522 01:10:02,479 --> 01:10:04,960 Speaker 3: aid budget versus this, how much is our aid budget 1523 01:10:05,040 --> 01:10:07,000 Speaker 3: versus what we're spending on climate aid? 1524 01:10:07,840 --> 01:10:11,320 Speaker 23: Yeah, well this is obviously pretty big in proportion aid budget. 1525 01:10:11,439 --> 01:10:13,880 Speaker 23: Aid budget is still bigger. But I and I in 1526 01:10:14,000 --> 01:10:16,760 Speaker 23: my mind do think of those two buckets in a 1527 01:10:16,840 --> 01:10:20,640 Speaker 23: similar way. Both of them are about our global contribution, and. 1528 01:10:20,720 --> 01:10:21,479 Speaker 17: I think it's right. 1529 01:10:21,600 --> 01:10:23,639 Speaker 23: Your point is right, we should be balancing up both 1530 01:10:23,640 --> 01:10:25,400 Speaker 23: of those. How much are we giving an aid as 1531 01:10:25,400 --> 01:10:27,960 Speaker 23: a whole and what proportion of that is climate aid? 1532 01:10:28,400 --> 01:10:30,160 Speaker 3: Jeez, okay, listen, when are you going to make a 1533 01:10:30,200 --> 01:10:30,720 Speaker 3: decision on it? 1534 01:10:32,600 --> 01:10:35,320 Speaker 23: Well, we will have advice on it obviously ahead of 1535 01:10:35,360 --> 01:10:38,160 Speaker 23: the budget, because, as I say, the current Climate client 1536 01:10:38,400 --> 01:10:40,760 Speaker 23: Climate finance commitment ends at the end of next year, 1537 01:10:40,800 --> 01:10:42,680 Speaker 23: so we'll need to make a decision ahead of the budget. 1538 01:10:42,560 --> 01:10:44,360 Speaker 3: On the budget. Are you guys not going to hit 1539 01:10:44,400 --> 01:10:45,960 Speaker 3: surplus in twenty seven to twenty eight. 1540 01:10:47,120 --> 01:10:49,880 Speaker 23: Well, look, I'm going to make an announcement about the 1541 01:10:49,960 --> 01:10:52,320 Speaker 23: forecasts on the seventeenth of December. But you will have 1542 01:10:52,439 --> 01:10:56,400 Speaker 23: seen that Treasury's chief economist last week pointed out that 1543 01:10:56,479 --> 01:11:00,799 Speaker 23: there are lots of challenges to that position. Big challenge 1544 01:11:00,880 --> 01:11:04,240 Speaker 23: being that we depend on the forecasts of the growth 1545 01:11:04,280 --> 01:11:07,280 Speaker 23: in the economy. When the economy is smaller, there's less revenue, 1546 01:11:07,920 --> 01:11:10,080 Speaker 23: makes it harder to get a surplus. And what Treasury 1547 01:11:10,120 --> 01:11:12,479 Speaker 23: I've basically had to do is readjust all of their 1548 01:11:12,560 --> 01:11:18,080 Speaker 23: forecasts over successive forecasts. They essentially overestimated how enduring the 1549 01:11:18,160 --> 01:11:20,880 Speaker 23: balance back after COVID would be, and we're now in 1550 01:11:20,960 --> 01:11:23,920 Speaker 23: a long hangover. So the numbers are reflecting that I 1551 01:11:24,000 --> 01:11:27,960 Speaker 23: can't control Treasury's forecast assumptions. What I can control and 1552 01:11:28,200 --> 01:11:31,839 Speaker 23: will control, is our government's discretionary spending decisions. 1553 01:11:31,960 --> 01:11:34,519 Speaker 3: Okay, So it sounds to me like the So you're 1554 01:11:34,520 --> 01:11:36,519 Speaker 3: going to make an announcement on December seventeen as to 1555 01:11:36,560 --> 01:11:38,120 Speaker 3: whether you're going to hit that surplus or not. 1556 01:11:39,040 --> 01:11:42,120 Speaker 23: That's right. That's when I'll share the latest forecasts, which 1557 01:11:42,120 --> 01:11:43,719 Speaker 23: will illustrate where that sits. 1558 01:11:43,840 --> 01:11:45,559 Speaker 3: It sounds to me like you guys are softening us 1559 01:11:45,600 --> 01:11:46,840 Speaker 3: up for the fact that you're not going to hit it. 1560 01:11:47,640 --> 01:11:49,560 Speaker 23: Well, look, I've always been clear I'm not going to 1561 01:11:49,640 --> 01:11:53,400 Speaker 23: chase a surplus at all costs. Forecasts move up and down. 1562 01:11:53,760 --> 01:11:56,160 Speaker 23: What I've committed to New Zealanders is that we will 1563 01:11:56,240 --> 01:11:59,800 Speaker 23: make sensible, prudent fiscal decisions to get the books back 1564 01:11:59,840 --> 01:12:02,879 Speaker 23: in balance over time, and we remain on that course. 1565 01:12:03,800 --> 01:12:07,840 Speaker 3: Which is which brings us to Robert McCulloch's column. Did 1566 01:12:07,880 --> 01:12:09,479 Speaker 3: you read that last week? When you were away. 1567 01:12:10,400 --> 01:12:13,599 Speaker 23: I did hear that and can I can I give 1568 01:12:13,640 --> 01:12:16,240 Speaker 23: a response to it, because my goodness. First of all, 1569 01:12:16,360 --> 01:12:18,759 Speaker 23: he said that I do have another year to prove myself. 1570 01:12:18,800 --> 01:12:21,439 Speaker 23: So that's good because no one promised to solve the 1571 01:12:21,520 --> 01:12:25,360 Speaker 23: economy in year one. Then he said, look, we're having 1572 01:12:25,479 --> 01:12:27,840 Speaker 23: low growth. Well look my view is yes we are, 1573 01:12:28,320 --> 01:12:31,080 Speaker 23: and that's my entire rays on Deetra. What we committed 1574 01:12:31,200 --> 01:12:34,240 Speaker 23: was first get inflation under control, get interest rates coming down, 1575 01:12:34,360 --> 01:12:37,720 Speaker 23: deliver neutral X relief. We've done those things. We are 1576 01:12:37,880 --> 01:12:40,600 Speaker 23: very focused on driving growth forward. Then he said, and 1577 01:12:40,680 --> 01:12:42,800 Speaker 23: this was the curious bit, he said, oh, look she's 1578 01:12:42,840 --> 01:12:45,960 Speaker 23: not doing enough to break up monopoly powers. Well, here 1579 01:12:46,120 --> 01:12:49,439 Speaker 23: is what I'd say to that I am different from 1580 01:12:49,479 --> 01:12:53,000 Speaker 23: other finance ministers and that I have directly confronted the 1581 01:12:53,160 --> 01:12:55,720 Speaker 23: major trading banks. I've said that I'm going to do 1582 01:12:55,800 --> 01:12:58,960 Speaker 23: regulatory reform at the Reserve Bank. We have the Parliamentary 1583 01:12:59,040 --> 01:13:02,439 Speaker 23: Select Committee and going on. I am very determined on 1584 01:13:02,520 --> 01:13:04,360 Speaker 23: that score. And I'd like to put this out to 1585 01:13:04,439 --> 01:13:07,120 Speaker 23: Robert McCulloch if he has more ideas on how we 1586 01:13:07,240 --> 01:13:10,439 Speaker 23: can drive competition in the New Zealand economy to break 1587 01:13:10,560 --> 01:13:13,479 Speaker 23: up some of these duopolies who are making too much 1588 01:13:13,560 --> 01:13:16,120 Speaker 23: money out of New Zealanders. Then I am up for 1589 01:13:16,320 --> 01:13:20,200 Speaker 23: those ideas. I am a competition warrior. I love markets 1590 01:13:20,280 --> 01:13:23,000 Speaker 23: that operate competitively and that is very much on my 1591 01:13:23,080 --> 01:13:25,160 Speaker 23: agender as a finance mind staff I could keep going 1592 01:13:25,200 --> 01:13:27,479 Speaker 23: through his points here this but I felt that I 1593 01:13:27,560 --> 01:13:30,920 Speaker 23: had a response to each of them, and I basically thought, yep, 1594 01:13:31,479 --> 01:13:32,599 Speaker 23: you ain't seen nothing yet. 1595 01:13:32,960 --> 01:13:35,200 Speaker 3: Ye one would to come, oh well please, because as 1596 01:13:35,320 --> 01:13:37,720 Speaker 3: point is simply which gets us back to the surplus thing. 1597 01:13:37,800 --> 01:13:40,240 Speaker 3: His points are simply big talk not delivering right. And 1598 01:13:40,360 --> 01:13:43,760 Speaker 3: before the election in the campaign you were sneering at 1599 01:13:43,880 --> 01:13:46,639 Speaker 3: Labour's surplus of two point one that they had projected, 1600 01:13:46,640 --> 01:13:48,320 Speaker 3: and you said you were going to deliver two point nine. 1601 01:13:48,360 --> 01:13:50,400 Speaker 3: But when it comes to the crunch, actually we don't 1602 01:13:50,479 --> 01:13:51,879 Speaker 3: have that's not happening. 1603 01:13:52,880 --> 01:13:56,639 Speaker 23: Well, what we have done is dramatically reduced the rate 1604 01:13:56,720 --> 01:13:59,880 Speaker 23: of expenditure growth. There's no question if Labor were in 1605 01:14:00,080 --> 01:14:03,160 Speaker 23: power now, the deficit would be a lot worse. 1606 01:14:03,280 --> 01:14:03,400 Speaker 1: Now. 1607 01:14:03,439 --> 01:14:05,840 Speaker 23: I heard you talking on this point last week and 1608 01:14:05,920 --> 01:14:09,120 Speaker 23: you said, look, she's actually still spending more than Labor. 1609 01:14:09,479 --> 01:14:11,479 Speaker 23: So I've gone back and I've looked at the records 1610 01:14:11,800 --> 01:14:14,880 Speaker 23: going back to nineteen seventy two, so over more than 1611 01:14:14,920 --> 01:14:18,160 Speaker 23: fifty years, there is only one ever example of government 1612 01:14:18,200 --> 01:14:21,719 Speaker 23: spending going down in real dollar terms. Because of course 1613 01:14:21,800 --> 01:14:26,800 Speaker 23: each year population grows, there's inflation, there is weight to growth, 1614 01:14:26,840 --> 01:14:30,040 Speaker 23: and so what we've done is rapidly halt the rate 1615 01:14:30,280 --> 01:14:33,240 Speaker 23: of increase. That's the right thing to do. We will 1616 01:14:33,320 --> 01:14:36,639 Speaker 23: continue on that course. But if the argument is really 1617 01:14:36,680 --> 01:14:38,880 Speaker 23: that we should have slashed funding to below the levels 1618 01:14:38,920 --> 01:14:41,639 Speaker 23: it was even while the population grew, and even while 1619 01:14:41,680 --> 01:14:44,519 Speaker 23: there was still high inflation, then I'd put to you, actually, 1620 01:14:44,600 --> 01:14:46,920 Speaker 23: I'm a bit more compassionate than that, because I do 1621 01:14:47,160 --> 01:14:48,799 Speaker 23: care about frontline service delivery. 1622 01:14:48,920 --> 01:14:51,120 Speaker 3: Okay, Nichola, thank you. I really appreciate your time. That's 1623 01:14:51,200 --> 01:14:52,960 Speaker 3: Nichola Willis the Finance Minister's quart. 1624 01:14:52,800 --> 01:14:56,880 Speaker 2: A past analysis from the experts, bringing you everything you 1625 01:14:57,000 --> 01:14:59,599 Speaker 2: need to know on the US election. It's the Business 1626 01:14:59,680 --> 01:15:03,000 Speaker 2: Hour with Heather Duplicy, Allen and my HR the HR 1627 01:15:03,160 --> 01:15:05,439 Speaker 2: solution for busy SMEs used talks. 1628 01:15:05,479 --> 01:15:05,800 Speaker 1: It'd be. 1629 01:15:08,360 --> 01:15:10,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, as I thought, this is not going to go 1630 01:15:10,160 --> 01:15:12,200 Speaker 3: down well, getting a lot of text messages on US 1631 01:15:12,240 --> 01:15:14,519 Speaker 3: giving money to poorer countries for the climate. Hither when 1632 01:15:14,600 --> 01:15:16,680 Speaker 3: family members die down here in the South because of 1633 01:15:16,720 --> 01:15:19,320 Speaker 3: inadequate health resources, I'll reassure them in the global in 1634 01:15:19,360 --> 01:15:22,040 Speaker 3: the knowledge that we are at least being responsible global citizens. 1635 01:15:22,160 --> 01:15:24,200 Speaker 3: That's all right. So okay, if they die over here, 1636 01:15:24,200 --> 01:15:26,320 Speaker 3: as long as they're not dying over there. Heither, let's 1637 01:15:26,360 --> 01:15:28,240 Speaker 3: not give any money to poorer countries and aim for 1638 01:15:28,360 --> 01:15:30,840 Speaker 3: surplus ourselves. Hither, get the home in order before we 1639 01:15:30,920 --> 01:15:33,799 Speaker 3: hand out money that we don't have. Hither, This climate 1640 01:15:33,880 --> 01:15:36,800 Speaker 3: change donation nonsense is just an our journey and ruse 1641 01:15:36,880 --> 01:15:39,400 Speaker 3: for these young polies to ingratiate themselves with the UN 1642 01:15:39,479 --> 01:15:42,000 Speaker 3: and get jobs. Then when we're sick of them, I'll 1643 01:15:42,040 --> 01:15:43,200 Speaker 3: tell you what, just to put this in a bit 1644 01:15:43,240 --> 01:15:45,120 Speaker 3: of context for you. Right, So the amount of money, 1645 01:15:45,560 --> 01:15:48,120 Speaker 3: I would say, almost undoubtedly it's going to go up. 1646 01:15:48,479 --> 01:15:51,680 Speaker 3: I'd be surprised if Nikola Willison and the National led 1647 01:15:51,760 --> 01:15:55,120 Speaker 3: government is prepared to go backwards on what we're funding 1648 01:15:55,600 --> 01:15:58,320 Speaker 3: everybody else for the climate. So let's just say it's 1649 01:15:58,360 --> 01:16:00,479 Speaker 3: the same amount. Let's say for now it's the same amount. 1650 01:16:00,520 --> 01:16:03,400 Speaker 3: O kay, over four years, we're talking about one point 1651 01:16:03,479 --> 01:16:07,240 Speaker 3: three billion dollars. That is almost exactly the same amount 1652 01:16:07,240 --> 01:16:09,120 Speaker 3: that We've asked Lester Levy to cut out of our 1653 01:16:09,160 --> 01:16:11,439 Speaker 3: health system. He's got to find savings of one point 1654 01:16:11,520 --> 01:16:13,920 Speaker 3: four billion dollars. Now, question for you, where would you 1655 01:16:13,960 --> 01:16:17,120 Speaker 3: prefer that money be? Because you know there's no ferry 1656 01:16:17,120 --> 01:16:19,000 Speaker 3: at the bottom of the garden printing money for us. Right, 1657 01:16:19,080 --> 01:16:21,040 Speaker 3: you've only got so much. So would you like the 1658 01:16:21,080 --> 01:16:23,880 Speaker 3: one point three million billion dollars to go off to 1659 01:16:23,960 --> 01:16:26,840 Speaker 3: Africa and the Pacific and the Southeast Asian nations to 1660 01:16:26,920 --> 01:16:29,240 Speaker 3: help them all out fight the climate or would you 1661 01:16:29,320 --> 01:16:30,600 Speaker 3: rather take that money and put it back in the 1662 01:16:30,640 --> 01:16:32,760 Speaker 3: health system and employ some doctors and nurses, Because I 1663 01:16:32,760 --> 01:16:34,479 Speaker 3: think the answer is pretty obvious for most of us. 1664 01:16:34,920 --> 01:16:37,920 Speaker 3: Nineteen past six Shane Soally harbor asset management with US. Now, 1665 01:16:37,960 --> 01:16:40,920 Speaker 3: Hey Shane, Hello, heater Shane. You've been at their New 1666 01:16:41,000 --> 01:16:42,559 Speaker 3: Zealand AGM today. How's it looking? 1667 01:16:43,560 --> 01:16:46,519 Speaker 24: Look it's been a really tough environment for a New Zion. 1668 01:16:47,360 --> 01:16:51,759 Speaker 24: Despite this tough newsion economy and it's really massive supply. 1669 01:16:51,880 --> 01:16:54,400 Speaker 24: Chane issues to actually provide a slightly positive update to 1670 01:16:54,439 --> 01:16:57,599 Speaker 24: day driven by better cost control, revenue better than expected. 1671 01:16:58,040 --> 01:16:59,680 Speaker 21: Talking about a little grin shoots. 1672 01:16:59,400 --> 01:17:02,240 Speaker 24: And twos of small medium sized enterprises corporate travel Domestic 1673 01:17:02,880 --> 01:17:05,479 Speaker 24: still got sixteen percent of the air fleet grounded by 1674 01:17:05,760 --> 01:17:08,920 Speaker 24: lack a part supply chain. They're saying could get through 1675 01:17:08,960 --> 01:17:12,080 Speaker 24: the worst of that by early twenty twenty six, and 1676 01:17:12,120 --> 01:17:14,360 Speaker 24: they're even talking about growing a network again to three 1677 01:17:14,400 --> 01:17:14,960 Speaker 24: to four percent. 1678 01:17:15,040 --> 01:17:16,200 Speaker 21: But it's all been driven. 1679 01:17:15,960 --> 01:17:20,000 Speaker 24: By things they're doing internallys some transformation programs, talking about 1680 01:17:20,000 --> 01:17:22,040 Speaker 24: three to FO one hundred men savings, a couple of 1681 01:17:22,080 --> 01:17:24,960 Speaker 24: interesting nuggets in there, some new products, some new services 1682 01:17:25,840 --> 01:17:30,120 Speaker 24: will be apparently released pretty soon, but certainly investing for 1683 01:17:30,200 --> 01:17:33,200 Speaker 24: their growth. Up to eight hundred million of capital investment 1684 01:17:33,240 --> 01:17:37,679 Speaker 24: and per annum, so massive investment. They're talking about continuing 1685 01:17:37,720 --> 01:17:41,160 Speaker 24: with their clean Skies initiative. By twenty thirty they having 1686 01:17:41,160 --> 01:17:43,599 Speaker 24: ten percent of sustainable line viewers. But yeah, I think 1687 01:17:43,760 --> 01:17:45,600 Speaker 24: a lot of these enhancements they've been working hard on 1688 01:17:46,200 --> 01:17:48,559 Speaker 24: last year or two post COVID started to come through. 1689 01:17:48,920 --> 01:17:49,720 Speaker 24: Still very tough. 1690 01:17:50,600 --> 01:17:52,840 Speaker 3: So we are, i think, part way through the company 1691 01:17:52,920 --> 01:17:55,240 Speaker 3: reporting season for the September period. What's the tone that 1692 01:17:55,320 --> 01:17:57,680 Speaker 3: you're getting from the ins and X listed companies right now? 1693 01:17:58,400 --> 01:17:59,920 Speaker 24: Yeah, we are in the think of that, Heather, You 1694 01:18:00,160 --> 01:18:03,599 Speaker 24: right at the margin, results are looking slightly better than expected, 1695 01:18:03,840 --> 01:18:05,760 Speaker 24: and it just suggests that the earnings for his own 1696 01:18:05,800 --> 01:18:08,200 Speaker 24: companies may be basing again. Like in New Zealand, it's 1697 01:18:08,240 --> 01:18:10,760 Speaker 24: been some tough runs, but we are seeing some real 1698 01:18:11,040 --> 01:18:13,960 Speaker 24: spread of outcomes, global ag justic something main forre it, 1699 01:18:14,320 --> 01:18:17,200 Speaker 24: bitter results starting to say they's some green shoots, a 1700 01:18:17,240 --> 01:18:21,160 Speaker 24: bit of improvement. Reads that companies like Goodman and Argacy saying, hey, 1701 01:18:21,640 --> 01:18:23,840 Speaker 24: we're seeing things getting a little bit better, but we're 1702 01:18:23,840 --> 01:18:24,960 Speaker 24: not getting to eat of ourselves. 1703 01:18:25,000 --> 01:18:25,479 Speaker 21: And we've got. 1704 01:18:25,400 --> 01:18:27,479 Speaker 24: Companies that maybe thought to bounce back from a really 1705 01:18:27,560 --> 01:18:29,960 Speaker 24: tough a whole space lad, and then we've got companies 1706 01:18:30,000 --> 01:18:32,839 Speaker 24: okay to total one out of the box, big upgrade. 1707 01:18:33,560 --> 01:18:36,000 Speaker 24: So yeah, I think management teams still being cautious, but 1708 01:18:36,040 --> 01:18:39,320 Speaker 24: they're becoming increasingly cautiously optimistic and bit of a contrast there, 1709 01:18:40,200 --> 01:18:41,600 Speaker 24: and we think that might just provide a bit of 1710 01:18:41,680 --> 01:18:43,040 Speaker 24: upside for his ze own company earnings. 1711 01:18:43,160 --> 01:18:45,519 Speaker 3: Hey are we still are we still expecting a fifty 1712 01:18:45,560 --> 01:18:46,679 Speaker 3: basis point cut this week? 1713 01:18:47,280 --> 01:18:47,479 Speaker 5: Yeah? 1714 01:18:47,479 --> 01:18:50,280 Speaker 24: I think that's right. The market is saying fifty basis points. 1715 01:18:50,680 --> 01:18:52,840 Speaker 24: You know, the data continues to point to inflation falling. 1716 01:18:53,240 --> 01:18:55,680 Speaker 24: We are seeing businesses a little bit more confident there's 1717 01:18:55,680 --> 01:18:58,519 Speaker 24: another reading later this week on Thursday, actually after the 1718 01:18:58,960 --> 01:19:00,679 Speaker 24: Reserve Banking designs to report. 1719 01:19:01,280 --> 01:19:03,360 Speaker 21: But you know again employment. 1720 01:19:03,040 --> 01:19:04,360 Speaker 24: Level is it, so think we're going to watch for 1721 01:19:04,520 --> 01:19:06,760 Speaker 24: that there is actually put unemployments on the creep up. 1722 01:19:07,040 --> 01:19:09,160 Speaker 24: Reserve Bank may want to get ahead of that. This 1723 01:19:09,360 --> 01:19:11,680 Speaker 24: is of course their last meeting before mid Debruary when 1724 01:19:11,720 --> 01:19:15,320 Speaker 24: they come back after the summer break. So they have 1725 01:19:15,520 --> 01:19:18,280 Speaker 24: maintained this path of less regrets, which means they don't 1726 01:19:18,320 --> 01:19:20,120 Speaker 24: want to be the reserve bank that lets the inflation 1727 01:19:20,240 --> 01:19:23,639 Speaker 24: gene out of the bottle by not by easing interest 1728 01:19:23,720 --> 01:19:25,680 Speaker 24: rates to really, so they probably want to keep it a. 1729 01:19:25,680 --> 01:19:27,360 Speaker 21: Little but not get too carried away. 1730 01:19:27,960 --> 01:19:30,680 Speaker 24: So a three quarter point seven five percent cut that 1731 01:19:30,720 --> 01:19:31,519 Speaker 24: would be a surprise. 1732 01:19:31,920 --> 01:19:33,960 Speaker 21: So fifty years the odds on money at this stage. 1733 01:19:34,080 --> 01:19:34,280 Speaker 5: Yeah. 1734 01:19:34,640 --> 01:19:36,800 Speaker 3: Hey, over in the US, shame, we've obviously had the 1735 01:19:36,840 --> 01:19:38,800 Speaker 3: Trump trades push everything up and has come back a 1736 01:19:38,840 --> 01:19:41,240 Speaker 3: wee bit. Now what are you looking when you look 1737 01:19:41,240 --> 01:19:42,639 Speaker 3: at that? What do you think that means for returns 1738 01:19:42,680 --> 01:19:44,960 Speaker 3: for the US share market and then for US as well. 1739 01:19:45,800 --> 01:19:49,240 Speaker 21: Yeah, look, you've seen some extremes there. There's definitely some 1740 01:19:49,360 --> 01:19:52,640 Speaker 21: of the leverage exchange trade of phones, the cryptophones, all 1741 01:19:52,680 --> 01:19:55,000 Speaker 21: the sort of speculaive elements have really gone hot. But 1742 01:19:55,080 --> 01:19:56,920 Speaker 21: there's four things that we're looking at that are sort 1743 01:19:56,920 --> 01:19:58,679 Speaker 21: of seeing people will just be a bit more cautious 1744 01:19:58,800 --> 01:20:01,880 Speaker 21: of recent days. Firstly, we've seen the Central Bank, the Reserve, 1745 01:20:02,000 --> 01:20:05,600 Speaker 21: Central Bank, Reserve, US Federal Reserve, some of the commentators 1746 01:20:05,640 --> 01:20:08,840 Speaker 21: just stepping back from cut expectations, says saying, hey, the 1747 01:20:08,880 --> 01:20:11,559 Speaker 21: completion is not going away as quick quickly as we thought. 1748 01:20:11,600 --> 01:20:13,360 Speaker 24: We're going to want to just be a bit slower 1749 01:20:13,800 --> 01:20:17,759 Speaker 24: people are watching. Secondly, the Ukraine War getting broader. Thirdly, 1750 01:20:18,280 --> 01:20:20,479 Speaker 24: certainly some of the policy a certaintly around some of 1751 01:20:20,520 --> 01:20:23,640 Speaker 24: the appointments that mister Trump's proposing is just challenging a 1752 01:20:23,680 --> 01:20:25,880 Speaker 24: few parts of the economy. And finally, I think you know, 1753 01:20:25,960 --> 01:20:29,240 Speaker 24: we've seen some results, truly impressive results, but not enough, 1754 01:20:30,160 --> 01:20:32,880 Speaker 24: not enough for expectations. And so normally we've see the 1755 01:20:33,000 --> 01:20:35,679 Speaker 24: US market rally into the end of the year, into December, 1756 01:20:35,840 --> 01:20:38,360 Speaker 24: we've already seen four and a half five percent rally. 1757 01:20:38,560 --> 01:20:40,599 Speaker 21: It's a long way for us here in New Zealand. 1758 01:20:40,960 --> 01:20:44,160 Speaker 24: We've going to be careful about volatility around these political appointments, 1759 01:20:44,560 --> 01:20:48,240 Speaker 24: particularly what that means for US bond markets and cheer markets. 1760 01:20:48,640 --> 01:20:53,880 Speaker 24: And certainly there's more expansioning US fiscal spending, the government 1761 01:20:53,960 --> 01:20:56,719 Speaker 24: spending more money that has potential to keep the reserve 1762 01:20:56,800 --> 01:21:00,200 Speaker 24: bank interest rates higher, in the usual reserve higher, and 1763 01:21:00,320 --> 01:21:02,840 Speaker 24: so that could mean that US dollar stays stronger, makes 1764 01:21:02,880 --> 01:21:03,799 Speaker 24: it tougher for holidays. 1765 01:21:03,840 --> 01:21:05,200 Speaker 21: Heather, totally US. 1766 01:21:05,240 --> 01:21:08,400 Speaker 3: Shane, thanks very much appreciated. Shane Soly Harbor Asset Management, 1767 01:21:08,800 --> 01:21:13,360 Speaker 3: just on the ocr Informetrics has pointed out that if 1768 01:21:13,560 --> 01:21:15,280 Speaker 3: we get a fifty basis point cut, which is what 1769 01:21:15,320 --> 01:21:17,600 Speaker 3: we're expecting, you're not going to see much movement in 1770 01:21:17,680 --> 01:21:19,760 Speaker 3: your mortgage rate, right, So if you're if you're looking 1771 01:21:19,760 --> 01:21:22,439 Speaker 3: at the fixed rates, don't expect much because fifty basis 1772 01:21:22,479 --> 01:21:24,559 Speaker 3: points has already been priced. And so maybe you get 1773 01:21:24,560 --> 01:21:26,640 Speaker 3: a ten basis point cut or something like that on 1774 01:21:26,760 --> 01:21:29,040 Speaker 3: the floating rate. Obviously it will drop the fullom mount, 1775 01:21:29,520 --> 01:21:32,760 Speaker 3: but watch out for the seventy five basis point if 1776 01:21:32,800 --> 01:21:34,720 Speaker 3: we get that as a cut, which really is an 1777 01:21:34,760 --> 01:21:37,400 Speaker 3: outside chance that hasn't fully been priced, and so then 1778 01:21:37,439 --> 01:21:39,160 Speaker 3: you see both of them, then you see it. You'll 1779 01:21:39,200 --> 01:21:41,280 Speaker 3: see the drops right across the board fingers crossed. You 1780 01:21:41,360 --> 01:21:45,280 Speaker 3: never know Adrian surprises from time to time six twenty. 1781 01:21:45,080 --> 01:21:48,080 Speaker 1: Four, crunching the numbers and getting the results. 1782 01:21:48,400 --> 01:21:51,840 Speaker 2: It's hither duplessy Ellen with the Business Hour thanks to 1783 01:21:52,040 --> 01:21:56,120 Speaker 2: my HR, the HR solution for busy smys on news 1784 01:21:56,200 --> 01:21:57,719 Speaker 2: talks be getting a lot. 1785 01:21:57,640 --> 01:22:00,360 Speaker 3: Of techs suggesting that Razor was vaping at the was 1786 01:22:00,439 --> 01:22:02,320 Speaker 3: raised vaping at the game.

So anyway, we'll come back to 1791 01:22:10,040 --> 01:22:14,280 Speaker 3: that swear at a Stanford, Megan, good from you. Erica 1792 01:22:14,360 --> 01:22:16,880 Speaker 3: Stanford is now swear at a Stanford and she should 1793 01:22:16,880 --> 01:22:21,360 Speaker 3: be proud of it. How weird is that Business Desk 1794 01:22:21,479 --> 01:22:24,200 Speaker 3: interview today with Kenyon and Charlotte Clark. I don't know 1795 01:22:24,200 --> 01:22:25,640 Speaker 3: if you've caught up on this. If you haven't, let 1796 01:22:25,680 --> 01:22:27,599 Speaker 3: me just let me just point this out to you. Okay, 1797 01:22:27,680 --> 01:22:30,400 Speaker 3: these are the guys who run Duvaile, right, and they're 1798 01:22:30,400 --> 01:22:32,439 Speaker 3: the ones in trouble with the FMA and so on. 1799 01:22:32,560 --> 01:22:35,200 Speaker 3: At the moment, it's clearly an interview that's designed to 1800 01:22:35,280 --> 01:22:39,080 Speaker 3: elicit sympathy for them because they they've given the interview 1801 01:22:39,120 --> 01:22:41,080 Speaker 3: to talk about the fact that they've they've been forced 1802 01:22:41,120 --> 01:22:44,439 Speaker 3: to live on three thousand dollars a week between them 1803 01:22:44,720 --> 01:22:47,320 Speaker 3: rent paid. The rent is paid by the receivers. The 1804 01:22:47,400 --> 01:22:50,200 Speaker 3: three thousand dollars is just you know, to fund lifestyle, 1805 01:22:50,240 --> 01:22:53,519 Speaker 3: et cetera, so that they're upset about that, and they're 1806 01:22:53,600 --> 01:22:55,760 Speaker 3: upset about the fact that that money has now dried up, 1807 01:22:55,800 --> 01:22:57,400 Speaker 3: so now they've got no money to live on, and 1808 01:22:57,520 --> 01:22:59,519 Speaker 3: they may in fact, the rent is overdue. No one's 1809 01:22:59,520 --> 01:23:01,920 Speaker 3: paying the rent hasn't been paid for three weeks because 1810 01:23:01,920 --> 01:23:04,720 Speaker 3: the receivers appear to have stopped paying them. And if 1811 01:23:04,760 --> 01:23:06,879 Speaker 3: you read between the lines, it seems like the receivers 1812 01:23:06,960 --> 01:23:09,639 Speaker 3: think that there's assets that has been that haven't been declared, 1813 01:23:09,680 --> 01:23:13,599 Speaker 3: like jewelry and stuff like that. Anyway, it's weird because 1814 01:23:14,479 --> 01:23:17,200 Speaker 3: she's crying in the interview. He's trying to find her tissues, 1815 01:23:17,240 --> 01:23:20,280 Speaker 3: he can't find the tissues, and they've got a mug 1816 01:23:20,360 --> 01:23:22,560 Speaker 3: of gum boot tea and Value brand milk on the 1817 01:23:22,600 --> 01:23:26,960 Speaker 3: coffee table. I think you're supposed to feel sorry for 1818 01:23:27,040 --> 01:23:30,719 Speaker 3: them having to drink Value brand milk. Do you, because 1819 01:23:30,760 --> 01:23:33,479 Speaker 3: that's all I drink. That feels very normal to me anyway, 1820 01:23:33,640 --> 01:23:34,280 Speaker 3: just pointing that out. 1821 01:23:34,320 --> 01:23:43,480 Speaker 25: Headline's next, whether it's Macro micro or just playing economics, 1822 01:23:43,720 --> 01:23:46,920 Speaker 25: it's all on the Business Hour with Hither Duplicy Allen 1823 01:23:47,000 --> 01:23:50,960 Speaker 25: and my HR the HR solution for Busy SMS, New 1824 01:23:51,000 --> 01:23:52,400 Speaker 25: Stalks busy. 1825 01:24:01,920 --> 01:24:02,840 Speaker 3: Oh, he was vaping. 1826 01:24:03,120 --> 01:24:03,839 Speaker 7: He was vaping. 1827 01:24:03,920 --> 01:24:05,680 Speaker 3: I looked it up on Twitter. This is the only 1828 01:24:05,720 --> 01:24:08,280 Speaker 3: reason I go on Twitter nowadays to look at things 1829 01:24:08,400 --> 01:24:11,640 Speaker 3: like this.

Fell 1846 01:24:50,880 --> 01:24:52,880 Speaker 3: asleep on a beach after a hard night at the 1847 01:24:53,000 --> 01:24:55,200 Speaker 3: taxi back like Uber bah blah blah blah.

But vapor there, vapor razor, 1849 01:25:00,160 --> 01:25:03,840 Speaker 3: razor clear as mud in the middle of the TV suck. 1850 01:25:04,040 --> 01:25:06,599 Speaker 3: That's really bad for the kids. He doesn't miss a game. 1851 01:25:06,840 --> 01:25:09,040 Speaker 3: So I'm just saying, I'm just saying, you're going to 1852 01:25:09,080 --> 01:25:11,519 Speaker 3: have these tough standards applied across the board.

K Oliver out of the UK 1854 01:25:14,640 --> 01:25:17,160 Speaker 3: with us shortly twenty two away from seven Here the 1855 01:25:17,360 --> 01:25:21,320 Speaker 3: duspite Wellington City Council and its mayor constantly insisting that 1856 01:25:21,400 --> 01:25:23,960 Speaker 3: they're putting the highest ever amount of money into fixing 1857 01:25:24,040 --> 01:25:26,160 Speaker 3: water pipes. It turns out they're not paying that much, 1858 01:25:26,240 --> 01:25:28,679 Speaker 3: are they. They're only paying enough to fix about one 1859 01:25:28,840 --> 01:25:31,559 Speaker 3: k of pipes a year, and that's despite the fact 1860 01:25:31,560 --> 01:25:33,680 Speaker 3: that they've got two hundred and thirty seven k's of 1861 01:25:33,800 --> 01:25:36,479 Speaker 3: pipes in a very poor condition and one hundreds more 1862 01:25:36,600 --> 01:25:39,360 Speaker 3: k's of pipes that need fixing less urgently now. Ben 1863 01:25:39,439 --> 01:25:41,759 Speaker 3: McNulty is a Wellington City councilor high Ben. 1864 01:25:41,840 --> 01:25:43,760 Speaker 26: Hi Heather, thanks for having me, Yeah, thanks for joining us. 1865 01:25:43,800 --> 01:25:45,479 Speaker 3: Listen, why are you guys putting in so little money? 1866 01:25:46,800 --> 01:25:46,840 Speaker 19: So? 1867 01:25:46,960 --> 01:25:50,400 Speaker 26: Wellington Water are our trusted advisor in terms of where 1868 01:25:50,640 --> 01:25:53,400 Speaker 26: the money goes. So I just want to stipulate that 1869 01:25:53,479 --> 01:25:55,400 Speaker 26: we don't choose on are we going to replace the 1870 01:25:55,520 --> 01:25:57,880 Speaker 26: x kilometers pipes fixed x amounts at lext We put 1871 01:25:57,920 --> 01:26:00,280 Speaker 26: the money in and then they decide from that paul 1872 01:26:00,400 --> 01:26:02,639 Speaker 26: where that money should go. So in the first instance, 1873 01:26:02,680 --> 01:26:04,880 Speaker 26: the decision to do less than a kilometer sits very 1874 01:26:04,920 --> 01:26:07,880 Speaker 26: much operationally in their hand. At the same time, yes, 1875 01:26:08,120 --> 01:26:09,960 Speaker 26: there is a point that we're not putting enough funding 1876 01:26:10,040 --> 01:26:12,680 Speaker 26: in the earlier years of our long term plan. It 1877 01:26:12,800 --> 01:26:16,160 Speaker 26: ramps up, it gets considerable, especially for the other years. 1878 01:26:16,520 --> 01:26:18,920 Speaker 26: But right now the big culprit that's actually gobbling up 1879 01:26:18,920 --> 01:26:21,479 Speaker 26: all that spare cash is the town Hall. That project 1880 01:26:21,640 --> 01:26:24,080 Speaker 26: is gobbling up hundreds of millions of dollars of our 1881 01:26:24,200 --> 01:26:27,320 Speaker 26: borrowing capacity over the next three years, and that's borrowing 1882 01:26:27,360 --> 01:26:29,720 Speaker 26: capacity that should be going to pipes, and it's going 1883 01:26:29,760 --> 01:26:30,439 Speaker 26: to an old building. 1884 01:26:30,479 --> 01:26:33,240 Speaker 3: Instead, didn't Wellington didn't Wellington Water tell you, guys, you 1885 01:26:33,320 --> 01:26:36,160 Speaker 3: need to fund them sufficiently to replace forty k's of 1886 01:26:36,240 --> 01:26:37,160 Speaker 3: pipes every year. 1887 01:26:38,840 --> 01:26:41,720 Speaker 26: They've told us that, and why don't you borrowed? We've 1888 01:26:41,760 --> 01:26:44,439 Speaker 26: borrowed to the maximum that we can. But councilors don't 1889 01:26:44,479 --> 01:26:46,799 Speaker 26: make decisions in the vacuum here, and they've made decisions 1890 01:26:46,840 --> 01:26:49,040 Speaker 26: on other spending priorities sort of gobbled up the debt 1891 01:26:49,040 --> 01:26:52,040 Speaker 26: headroom and ability to put money into there. And again, 1892 01:26:52,120 --> 01:26:54,479 Speaker 26: the town hall is just such the prime culprit that's 1893 01:26:54,479 --> 01:26:56,920 Speaker 26: sitting in those first few years of the LTP that 1894 01:26:57,160 --> 01:26:59,479 Speaker 26: even though that town hall is not there, we wontn't 1895 01:26:59,479 --> 01:27:02,400 Speaker 26: actually have the sufficient capital to address it. And it 1896 01:27:02,479 --> 01:27:04,599 Speaker 26: goes to the point of why is government doing water reform? 1897 01:27:04,640 --> 01:27:07,000 Speaker 26: Why was the past government doing water reform? Because the 1898 01:27:07,040 --> 01:27:09,519 Speaker 26: way that council funds its water is fundamentally broken. 1899 01:27:10,240 --> 01:27:12,479 Speaker 3: How much money are you putting into replacing the pipes 1900 01:27:13,760 --> 01:27:14,160 Speaker 3: this year? 1901 01:27:14,240 --> 01:27:17,959 Speaker 26: I believe it's about eighty million dollars of capital investment. 1902 01:27:18,040 --> 01:27:21,240 Speaker 26: But that is again, we give Wellington Water about eighty 1903 01:27:21,280 --> 01:27:23,320 Speaker 26: million dollars of capital and then they make the decisions 1904 01:27:23,360 --> 01:27:25,400 Speaker 26: of where they're going to diverge that funding through there, 1905 01:27:25,880 --> 01:27:28,479 Speaker 26: so it's going to fundamentally go and repairs. 1906 01:27:28,800 --> 01:27:31,439 Speaker 3: I know, I know the town hall is hugely expensive, 1907 01:27:31,439 --> 01:27:32,720 Speaker 3: and that is a fair point to make, But why 1908 01:27:32,760 --> 01:27:35,920 Speaker 3: don't you guys cancel your absolute weird obsession with ripping 1909 01:27:36,000 --> 01:27:37,960 Speaker 3: up roads and replacing them with cycle ways and all 1910 01:27:38,200 --> 01:27:39,960 Speaker 3: and the Golden Mile and stuff, and put that money 1911 01:27:40,000 --> 01:27:40,960 Speaker 3: into the pipes instead. 1912 01:27:41,880 --> 01:27:43,560 Speaker 26: Well, those are the discussions that are happening in the 1913 01:27:43,640 --> 01:27:46,920 Speaker 26: LTP Amendment right the officers has stipulated that the Golden 1914 01:27:46,960 --> 01:27:49,320 Speaker 26: Mile should be looked at in terms of the cost saving, 1915 01:27:49,800 --> 01:27:52,920 Speaker 26: but nonetheless at the financial situation. 1916 01:27:52,880 --> 01:27:54,800 Speaker 3: Right now, saying you, I just don't understand you, guys, 1917 01:27:54,920 --> 01:27:57,840 Speaker 3: like you're sitting there if it was if it was 1918 01:27:58,040 --> 01:28:00,960 Speaker 3: your house right and your pipes, we're crappy and busting 1919 01:28:01,000 --> 01:28:03,080 Speaker 3: the whole time. You would deal with your pipes before 1920 01:28:03,160 --> 01:28:06,040 Speaker 3: you dealt with like putting yourself a nice, flash new driveway. 1921 01:28:06,400 --> 01:28:08,240 Speaker 3: So why did you guys not, in the first instance 1922 01:28:08,320 --> 01:28:10,000 Speaker 3: make that decision that's so bizarre to me. 1923 01:28:10,880 --> 01:28:13,160 Speaker 26: Well, in the first instance, the decisions about cuts now 1924 01:28:13,240 --> 01:28:16,360 Speaker 26: around having financial resilience. So what we've been told by KPMG, 1925 01:28:16,520 --> 01:28:18,280 Speaker 26: by the auditors of the world is actually we need 1926 01:28:18,320 --> 01:28:20,719 Speaker 26: to have a billion dollars of headrooms should an earthquake 1927 01:28:20,800 --> 01:28:23,120 Speaker 26: hit and all the spending cuts that we're planning through 1928 01:28:23,160 --> 01:28:24,080 Speaker 26: our LTPMNT. 1929 01:28:24,240 --> 01:28:26,680 Speaker 3: But you're not talking about the that's not the same 1930 01:28:26,720 --> 01:28:28,160 Speaker 3: thing as me. What I'm saying to you is it's 1931 01:28:28,160 --> 01:28:31,280 Speaker 3: an opportunity cost here. Why didn't you when you first 1932 01:28:31,320 --> 01:28:32,960 Speaker 3: sat down and say we're not going to do the 1933 01:28:33,000 --> 01:28:36,559 Speaker 3: Golden Mile because we're going to use that money for pipes, Well. 1934 01:28:36,479 --> 01:28:38,479 Speaker 26: That money wouldn't have gone into the Golden Miles. What 1935 01:28:38,520 --> 01:28:40,840 Speaker 26: I'm saying, so, our pressing issue of the advice that's 1936 01:28:40,840 --> 01:28:43,160 Speaker 26: sitting in front of us is between water and having 1937 01:28:43,240 --> 01:28:45,600 Speaker 26: enough money for our resilience. Actually resilience is where the 1938 01:28:45,640 --> 01:28:48,560 Speaker 26: money has to go through. That's the professional opinion. 1939 01:28:48,320 --> 01:28:50,280 Speaker 3: Makes it even. It works like that means you had 1940 01:28:50,360 --> 01:28:52,800 Speaker 3: two things that should have taken priority over the Golden Mile, 1941 01:28:52,840 --> 01:28:53,760 Speaker 3: and you picked the Golden Mile. 1942 01:28:53,800 --> 01:28:57,320 Speaker 26: Anyway, again, though, let's take the Golden Mile just from 1943 01:28:57,320 --> 01:28:59,960 Speaker 26: the City Council's perspective, that is fifty percent government fund. 1944 01:29:00,280 --> 01:29:02,120 Speaker 26: So you have to look at and there's thirty million 1945 01:29:02,120 --> 01:29:04,599 Speaker 26: dollars of pipe replacements within that project that are half 1946 01:29:04,680 --> 01:29:07,000 Speaker 26: being government funded. So just want to make the point 1947 01:29:07,040 --> 01:29:09,440 Speaker 26: there that actually the Golden Mile has quite a substantive 1948 01:29:09,479 --> 01:29:12,720 Speaker 26: water infrastructure component and Wellington ratepayers are getting half of 1949 01:29:12,760 --> 01:29:13,960 Speaker 26: that component from the government. 1950 01:29:14,120 --> 01:29:14,759 Speaker 5: If that deal. 1951 01:29:14,680 --> 01:29:17,559 Speaker 3: Absolutely, yeah, I know the argument. I don't buy. Hey, listen, 1952 01:29:17,880 --> 01:29:20,479 Speaker 3: tell me something. You guys have got this big council 1953 01:29:20,560 --> 01:29:22,400 Speaker 3: meeting tomorrow where you need to decide what you're going 1954 01:29:22,439 --> 01:29:24,920 Speaker 3: to cut to be able to afford everything. Any idea, 1955 01:29:24,960 --> 01:29:26,800 Speaker 3: what's going is the Golden Mile going? 1956 01:29:28,680 --> 01:29:32,160 Speaker 26: I think everything's going to be a matter of discussion 1957 01:29:32,240 --> 01:29:35,960 Speaker 26: up until the votes. At the moment, there are texts, messages, emails, 1958 01:29:36,040 --> 01:29:38,840 Speaker 26: meetings flying left, right and center. People trying to put 1959 01:29:38,880 --> 01:29:41,280 Speaker 26: things in, people trying to take things out, and honestly, heiver, 1960 01:29:41,400 --> 01:29:42,679 Speaker 26: I just don't know quite. 1961 01:29:42,840 --> 01:29:46,240 Speaker 11: Where the numbers are lobbying at the moment is there. 1962 01:29:47,080 --> 01:29:49,200 Speaker 26: It's going to be a lot of phone calls and 1963 01:29:49,280 --> 01:29:51,800 Speaker 26: things into the evening. I'm sitting in this weird camp 1964 01:29:51,920 --> 01:29:55,400 Speaker 26: where you know, there's cuts coming from our officials, these 1965 01:29:55,439 --> 01:29:57,400 Speaker 26: cuts coming from the mayor's office, and there's cuts coming 1966 01:29:57,439 --> 01:29:59,760 Speaker 26: from the right wing counselors, and I'm sort of just 1967 01:30:00,080 --> 01:30:01,720 Speaker 26: rifting in between. I will vote for things that I 1968 01:30:01,760 --> 01:30:04,760 Speaker 26: think are always of our poor usage of our city's money. 1969 01:30:05,040 --> 01:30:06,880 Speaker 26: And I'll put in the things that I think are 1970 01:30:07,040 --> 01:30:09,640 Speaker 26: wise to keep putting through. That's about all I can do. 1971 01:30:10,280 --> 01:30:12,719 Speaker 26: But yeah, we have lots of camps saying cut, lots. 1972 01:30:12,560 --> 01:30:14,599 Speaker 3: Of different have you had have you had any good 1973 01:30:14,600 --> 01:30:15,559 Speaker 3: advice from the observer? 1974 01:30:15,680 --> 01:30:15,840 Speaker 5: Yet? 1975 01:30:17,520 --> 01:30:21,719 Speaker 26: I think the observer is actually, yeah, Look he's sitting 1976 01:30:21,800 --> 01:30:24,040 Speaker 26: back right now and he's saying, it's not my turn 1977 01:30:24,120 --> 01:30:25,800 Speaker 26: to tell you how to do these things. I want 1978 01:30:25,840 --> 01:30:28,360 Speaker 26: to spend the first month or two really understanding how 1979 01:30:28,479 --> 01:30:31,640 Speaker 26: your council works, what the dynamics are, and then you know, 1980 01:30:31,720 --> 01:30:34,080 Speaker 26: as you get further into the LTP process, I will 1981 01:30:34,200 --> 01:30:36,000 Speaker 26: involve myself a bit more. But I think that's why 1982 01:30:36,160 --> 01:30:38,080 Speaker 26: for him to actually he's been put in because there 1983 01:30:38,160 --> 01:30:40,560 Speaker 26: is an issue, there's a problem. I totally accept for 1984 01:30:40,720 --> 01:30:44,240 Speaker 26: Merationalepha Samian sometervention. So you don't just come in and 1985 01:30:44,280 --> 01:30:46,080 Speaker 26: start calling the shots. You come and you see how 1986 01:30:46,160 --> 01:30:48,000 Speaker 26: things are working, what's causing the problems, and then you 1987 01:30:48,080 --> 01:30:50,320 Speaker 26: actually go through. So no specific advice from your deserver. 1988 01:30:50,439 --> 01:30:52,640 Speaker 26: But I think the approach he's taking is prudent so 1989 01:30:52,760 --> 01:30:54,720 Speaker 26: that you don't just call the shots before you don't 1990 01:30:54,840 --> 01:30:55,920 Speaker 26: know what's that shot of problem? 1991 01:30:56,600 --> 01:30:58,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, Ben, thank you for talking to us through I 1992 01:30:58,080 --> 01:30:59,880 Speaker 3: really appreciate it. Ben McNaughty, who is the willing to 1993 01:31:00,040 --> 01:31:02,160 Speaker 3: and city councilor by the way, we've been trying to 1994 01:31:02,200 --> 01:31:04,040 Speaker 3: get ahold of ins are. This is the rugby people 1995 01:31:04,600 --> 01:31:06,320 Speaker 3: New Zealand Rugby all day to see if they would 1996 01:31:06,320 --> 01:31:08,080 Speaker 3: talk to us about what's going on. Why did they 1997 01:31:08,240 --> 01:31:10,920 Speaker 3: edit the video? Why'd they take TJ's political stuff out 1998 01:31:10,920 --> 01:31:12,639 Speaker 3: if they didn't like it? Why did they say yes 1999 01:31:12,680 --> 01:31:14,400 Speaker 3: to it in the first place? But they said they 2000 01:31:14,880 --> 01:31:17,400 Speaker 3: they didn't want to. I don't even know what their 2001 01:31:17,439 --> 01:31:20,439 Speaker 3: excuses are. I actually don't really care. They weren't going 2002 01:31:20,520 --> 01:31:22,599 Speaker 3: to come and talk about it today. I think maybe 2003 01:31:22,640 --> 01:31:25,599 Speaker 3: it was because TJ and Scott Barrett and RASA had all, 2004 01:31:25,800 --> 01:31:27,960 Speaker 3: you know, had some chats after the game, so they 2005 01:31:27,960 --> 01:31:31,560 Speaker 3: felt like it was covered off. I don't think so. 2006 01:31:31,880 --> 01:31:34,400 Speaker 3: It's been going on for days now anyway. So they 2007 01:31:34,479 --> 01:31:36,720 Speaker 3: say no formal response, but they wanted to point us 2008 01:31:36,760 --> 01:31:39,040 Speaker 3: to their position on the Treaty of White Tongy, which 2009 01:31:39,040 --> 01:31:41,759 Speaker 3: of course they refer to as TETTI or White Tongey, 2010 01:31:42,400 --> 01:31:45,559 Speaker 3: clearly spelled out in page fifteen of our constitution. New 2011 01:31:45,680 --> 01:31:48,519 Speaker 3: Zealand Rugby acknowledges Titi or white Tongey as the founding 2012 01:31:48,560 --> 01:31:50,840 Speaker 3: document of Altier or in New Zealand, Mari is tongue 2013 01:31:50,880 --> 01:31:52,599 Speaker 3: at the fenawa of our land, in the special place 2014 01:31:52,640 --> 01:31:55,120 Speaker 3: that the New Zealand Maori Rugby Board has as the 2015 01:31:55,200 --> 01:31:58,400 Speaker 3: representative entity of Maori amongst the stakeholders of rugby in 2016 01:31:58,479 --> 01:32:01,559 Speaker 3: New Zealand. So that's all they've got to say about 2017 01:32:01,720 --> 01:32:04,400 Speaker 3: what TJ said, which I think is supposed to tell 2018 01:32:04,479 --> 01:32:07,000 Speaker 3: you that they are okay with what TJ said, but 2019 01:32:07,160 --> 01:32:11,240 Speaker 3: not okay enough to leave it in the social media VIDEOA. Anyway, 2020 01:32:11,880 --> 01:32:13,200 Speaker 3: here you go. It's the best you're going to get. 2021 01:32:13,240 --> 01:32:13,680 Speaker 3: Quarter two. 2022 01:32:14,520 --> 01:32:18,000 Speaker 2: Everything from SMEs to the big corporates, the Business Hour 2023 01:32:18,360 --> 01:32:22,000 Speaker 2: with Heather Duper Clans and my HR, the HR solution 2024 01:32:22,160 --> 01:32:24,720 Speaker 2: for busy SMEs on News TALKSB. 2025 01:32:25,120 --> 01:32:27,080 Speaker 3: By the way, Peter's made a really good point on 2026 01:32:27,160 --> 01:32:29,360 Speaker 3: that climate funding that we were talking to Nikola Willis 2027 01:32:29,400 --> 01:32:31,080 Speaker 3: about saying hither, I think you find that if New 2028 01:32:31,160 --> 01:32:33,560 Speaker 3: Zealand doesn't put money into the islands, even under the 2029 01:32:33,600 --> 01:32:35,840 Speaker 3: climate change banner, then China will fill that gap and 2030 01:32:35,880 --> 01:32:37,640 Speaker 3: that will at least be part of what's going on 2031 01:32:37,720 --> 01:32:40,519 Speaker 3: here is that the West is trying to maintain to 2032 01:32:40,640 --> 01:32:43,880 Speaker 3: some extent right they're they're relevance by continuing to fund 2033 01:32:43,920 --> 01:32:45,920 Speaker 3: these developing countries so they still like us and they 2034 01:32:45,960 --> 01:32:48,080 Speaker 3: don't go off and make friends with the Chinese too much. 2035 01:32:48,240 --> 01:32:50,720 Speaker 3: Might be a bit late, but anyway, you know, we'll 2036 01:32:50,720 --> 01:32:52,960 Speaker 3: see if it works. Twelve away from seven k Oliver 2037 01:32:53,080 --> 01:32:54,360 Speaker 3: our UK correspondents with US. 2038 01:32:54,400 --> 01:32:56,800 Speaker 19: Now, heyk hello, Heaber. 2039 01:32:57,040 --> 01:32:58,360 Speaker 3: So how bad has Storm Burt been? 2040 01:32:58,400 --> 01:32:58,559 Speaker 5: Then? 2041 01:32:59,720 --> 01:33:03,920 Speaker 19: Well, it's been an absolute catastrophic event for Wales particularly, 2042 01:33:04,040 --> 01:33:07,040 Speaker 19: and the Welsh First Minister Ellan ned Morgan has said 2043 01:33:07,040 --> 01:33:11,560 Speaker 19: the floods have been absolutely devastating. There one hundred millimeters 2044 01:33:11,600 --> 01:33:16,640 Speaker 19: of rain in places, falling so quickly eighty percent of 2045 01:33:16,760 --> 01:33:20,040 Speaker 19: November's annual rainfall in forty eight hours. We've had four 2046 01:33:20,160 --> 01:33:24,120 Speaker 19: hundred flood warnings across the whole of the UK. Hundreds 2047 01:33:24,160 --> 01:33:27,559 Speaker 19: of properties had been at risk of flooding. Three hundred 2048 01:33:27,600 --> 01:33:30,840 Speaker 19: properties in Wales have flooded. The other problem there is 2049 01:33:30,920 --> 01:33:34,599 Speaker 19: that Storm Dennis went into that area in twenty twenty. 2050 01:33:35,040 --> 01:33:38,320 Speaker 19: There's been a lot of work going on to repair bridges, rows, etc. 2051 01:33:38,600 --> 01:33:41,000 Speaker 19: For the last four years and it seems that all 2052 01:33:41,040 --> 01:33:43,559 Speaker 19: those repairs have also been washed away. We've had four 2053 01:33:43,640 --> 01:33:47,320 Speaker 19: people killed, one being a dog walker, a seventy five 2054 01:33:47,400 --> 01:33:50,240 Speaker 19: year old man out with walking the dog. Another man 2055 01:33:50,320 --> 01:33:53,080 Speaker 19: in his eighties was killed in Wales when he literally 2056 01:33:53,200 --> 01:33:57,400 Speaker 19: drove into a big body of water and obviously he 2057 01:33:57,520 --> 01:33:59,960 Speaker 19: has drowned. And these are some of the horror story 2058 01:34:00,200 --> 01:34:03,000 Speaker 19: that have been going on here. It was described as 2059 01:34:03,080 --> 01:34:08,799 Speaker 19: a catastrophic weather event. Three forces came together, gale force winds, 2060 01:34:08,960 --> 01:34:12,200 Speaker 19: snow and rain, and it seems that once again it's 2061 01:34:12,320 --> 01:34:15,799 Speaker 19: taken people by surprise and we have had extreme flooding 2062 01:34:15,880 --> 01:34:16,519 Speaker 19: going on here. 2063 01:34:17,320 --> 01:34:19,479 Speaker 3: Hey, listen this petition I was just talking about this 2064 01:34:19,560 --> 01:34:21,880 Speaker 3: earlier on calling for a general election. Is this the 2065 01:34:22,000 --> 01:34:23,920 Speaker 3: fastest growing petition thus far? 2066 01:34:25,560 --> 01:34:28,479 Speaker 19: Well, I've been watching this one. It seems that people 2067 01:34:28,520 --> 01:34:32,439 Speaker 19: have one hundred thousand signatures in one hour in one instance. 2068 01:34:32,479 --> 01:34:36,120 Speaker 19: It has been put together by a business owner, Michael Westwood, 2069 01:34:36,439 --> 01:34:40,400 Speaker 19: and he's basically saying there should be another general election 2070 01:34:40,560 --> 01:34:45,519 Speaker 19: in this country because of the what he is calling 2071 01:34:45,600 --> 01:34:49,080 Speaker 19: basically the failure to deliver on promises that were made 2072 01:34:49,160 --> 01:34:52,320 Speaker 19: that didn't turn out to be anything alike what was 2073 01:34:52,400 --> 01:34:55,960 Speaker 19: going to come in reality so he wants another general election. 2074 01:34:56,080 --> 01:35:00,360 Speaker 19: We've got a million signatures so far. It does seen 2075 01:35:00,439 --> 01:35:04,160 Speaker 19: that this is even more kind of mud slinging at labor. 2076 01:35:04,680 --> 01:35:08,280 Speaker 19: We've obviously got discontent here about the winter fuel allowance. 2077 01:35:08,560 --> 01:35:11,920 Speaker 19: You've got the farmers over the inheritance tax. There are 2078 01:35:12,120 --> 01:35:15,560 Speaker 19: so many things that haven't gone well for labor, and 2079 01:35:16,120 --> 01:35:19,920 Speaker 19: this gentleman has basically said, let's start again. Let's see 2080 01:35:19,920 --> 01:35:22,600 Speaker 19: if we can get another general election. I doubt it 2081 01:35:22,800 --> 01:35:26,719 Speaker 19: very much, but the former Tory leadership contender, Robert Jenrick 2082 01:35:26,760 --> 01:35:28,560 Speaker 19: has also said that no one is ever going to 2083 01:35:28,600 --> 01:35:30,680 Speaker 19: trust labor again. And there are an awful lot of 2084 01:35:30,720 --> 01:35:33,519 Speaker 19: people here are saying what next? What else are they 2085 01:35:33,560 --> 01:35:33,840 Speaker 19: going to. 2086 01:35:33,840 --> 01:35:34,240 Speaker 2: Come up with? 2087 01:35:34,920 --> 01:35:35,080 Speaker 21: Yeah? 2088 01:35:35,160 --> 01:35:37,800 Speaker 3: Fair enough, Okay, Now what is going on with this 2089 01:35:38,040 --> 01:35:40,479 Speaker 3: sister dying vote? Ree ky Istama? Has he said which 2090 01:35:40,520 --> 01:35:41,000 Speaker 3: way he's going. 2091 01:35:40,960 --> 01:35:41,439 Speaker 1: To vote or no? 2092 01:35:42,800 --> 01:35:47,000 Speaker 19: No, Apparently he has not disclosed the way he is 2093 01:35:47,120 --> 01:35:50,920 Speaker 19: going to vote because he doesn't want to. Should we 2094 01:35:50,960 --> 01:35:53,880 Speaker 19: say convinced persuade other MPs in what is going to 2095 01:35:53,920 --> 01:35:59,080 Speaker 19: be a free vote on Friday? Now, people are basically 2096 01:36:00,160 --> 01:36:02,920 Speaker 19: they've been polled in this country. Two thirds of the 2097 01:36:03,000 --> 01:36:07,360 Speaker 19: general public are in favor of assisted dying of this bill, 2098 01:36:07,439 --> 01:36:11,759 Speaker 19: which would allow a terminally ill person with six months 2099 01:36:11,960 --> 01:36:15,200 Speaker 19: or less to live to apply to two doctors and 2100 01:36:15,320 --> 01:36:18,519 Speaker 19: a High Court judge for permission to take their own life. 2101 01:36:18,560 --> 01:36:21,519 Speaker 19: But we've had people like the Justice Secretary which I 2102 01:36:21,600 --> 01:36:24,000 Speaker 19: mean but Mamood come out and say that this is 2103 01:36:24,080 --> 01:36:29,120 Speaker 19: a slippery slope and that the state doesn't provide people 2104 01:36:29,240 --> 01:36:32,439 Speaker 19: with death. So there's a lot of controversy about this. 2105 01:36:32,760 --> 01:36:36,559 Speaker 19: Terminally ill people obviously are saying they want this bill 2106 01:36:36,640 --> 01:36:39,240 Speaker 19: to go ahead. One of the conversations was with a 2107 01:36:39,360 --> 01:36:43,120 Speaker 19: TV presenter here Esther Ranson, who is terminally ill with 2108 01:36:43,320 --> 01:36:46,519 Speaker 19: lung cancer, who had a lot of discussions with Keir 2109 01:36:46,640 --> 01:36:49,160 Speaker 19: Starmer and it would seem at one point that he 2110 01:36:49,400 --> 01:36:51,880 Speaker 19: was going to vote in favor of this. So we 2111 01:36:52,080 --> 01:36:54,280 Speaker 19: wait to see on Friday how this one is going 2112 01:36:54,360 --> 01:36:54,880 Speaker 19: to play out. 2113 01:36:54,960 --> 01:36:57,240 Speaker 3: Heather interesting steph Kay, thanks very much, appreciate it, as 2114 01:36:57,320 --> 01:37:00,800 Speaker 3: Kay Oliver, our UK correspondents. So there is a pub 2115 01:37:00,960 --> 01:37:04,519 Speaker 3: in the UK which there is a request that the 2116 01:37:04,560 --> 01:37:07,080 Speaker 3: pub changed its name, and it's a reasonably well known 2117 01:37:07,120 --> 01:37:08,960 Speaker 3: pubb it's a historic pub. It's had a bunch of 2118 01:37:09,000 --> 01:37:13,080 Speaker 3: famous people like Charlie Chaplin and Laurel and Hardy in 2119 01:37:13,160 --> 01:37:15,120 Speaker 3: there and stuff like that. It's been going since eighteen 2120 01:37:15,240 --> 01:37:17,679 Speaker 3: ninety one, presumably under the same name, but they've asked 2121 01:37:17,880 --> 01:37:21,479 Speaker 3: changed its name because its name is the sly Old Fox, 2122 01:37:22,800 --> 01:37:27,320 Speaker 3: and according to Peter, your favorite animal rights activists, that's 2123 01:37:27,360 --> 01:37:30,840 Speaker 3: not fair on foxes, and they think it's derogatory, inaccurate, 2124 01:37:30,920 --> 01:37:33,639 Speaker 3: and as I say, unfair. They think that the pub 2125 01:37:33,760 --> 01:37:36,720 Speaker 3: needs to replace the word sly with clever, so it 2126 01:37:36,840 --> 01:37:41,559 Speaker 3: becomes clever old Fox. And the reason that they're saying 2127 01:37:41,600 --> 01:37:43,679 Speaker 3: this is because if you continue to refer to fox 2128 01:37:43,760 --> 01:37:47,960 Speaker 3: as as sly, it kind of continues to perpetuate the 2129 01:37:48,600 --> 01:37:51,800 Speaker 3: idea that foxes are pests and then people kill them. 2130 01:37:52,760 --> 01:37:56,640 Speaker 3: And yeah, so I don't know if that's going to 2131 01:37:56,720 --> 01:37:59,080 Speaker 3: work changing the name. I feel like maybe if fox 2132 01:37:59,160 --> 01:38:02,400 Speaker 3: has stopped at pesting people in urban centers, then maybe 2133 01:38:02,400 --> 01:38:04,640 Speaker 3: people aren't going to kill them. But I don't think 2134 01:38:04,680 --> 01:38:06,479 Speaker 3: the word is the problem. I think it's the foxes behavior. 2135 01:38:06,520 --> 01:38:08,160 Speaker 3: But anyway, all good luck. Oh and what was the 2136 01:38:08,240 --> 01:38:10,639 Speaker 3: other thing. There was something quite funny that they said, Oh, yes, 2137 01:38:11,160 --> 01:38:14,559 Speaker 3: they want to reflect society's ever evolving empathy for animals. 2138 01:38:14,640 --> 01:38:17,000 Speaker 3: Oh please, seven away from seven. 2139 01:38:18,360 --> 01:38:21,200 Speaker 1: Getting ready for a new administration in the US. What 2140 01:38:21,479 --> 01:38:22,320 Speaker 1: will be the impact? 2141 01:38:22,600 --> 01:38:26,400 Speaker 2: It's the Business Hour with Heather Duplas Allen and my HR, 2142 01:38:26,640 --> 01:38:29,559 Speaker 2: the HR solution for busy SMEs news talks. 2143 01:38:29,600 --> 01:38:29,880 Speaker 5: He'd be. 2144 01:38:31,640 --> 01:38:34,640 Speaker 3: Heather TJ is the new Justinder. He kisses everyone off 2145 01:38:34,680 --> 01:38:38,000 Speaker 3: and then he leaves the country fair enough, doesn't have 2146 01:38:38,080 --> 01:38:41,360 Speaker 3: to wear it. I don't know why, but okay, so 2147 01:38:42,200 --> 01:38:43,840 Speaker 3: I've got a lot of texts from the elizabeths in 2148 01:38:43,920 --> 01:38:45,760 Speaker 3: my life for what I said a couple of hours ago. 2149 01:38:46,600 --> 01:38:49,800 Speaker 3: I'm standing by it. I am standing by it. It's 2150 01:38:50,000 --> 01:38:53,720 Speaker 3: just it's just Look, it was a name that was given. Look, 2151 01:38:54,040 --> 01:38:57,040 Speaker 3: it was the previous queen had the name. And when 2152 01:38:57,080 --> 01:38:59,240 Speaker 3: did she ascend the throne? In like nineteen fifty two, 2153 01:38:59,320 --> 01:39:01,280 Speaker 3: so when she was twenty something years old. So when 2154 01:39:01,360 --> 01:39:03,840 Speaker 3: was she born. She's born in the twenties or late 2155 01:39:03,920 --> 01:39:07,519 Speaker 3: thirty early thirties, So that's a that's a good old 2156 01:39:07,720 --> 01:39:09,800 Speaker 3: fashioned name. So we're just gonna steer away from that. 2157 01:39:09,840 --> 01:39:11,360 Speaker 3: But I don't know why Eileen thought it's a good 2158 01:39:11,360 --> 01:39:13,519 Speaker 3: idea to send me bogan names as if, oh you 2159 01:39:13,520 --> 01:39:20,599 Speaker 3: don't like Elizabeth, here's a bunch asta Bailey, Bella Blue Britney, Schenra, Charlotte, 2160 01:39:20,880 --> 01:39:22,880 Speaker 3: she says, are all but Bogan names. That's going to 2161 01:39:22,920 --> 01:39:24,880 Speaker 3: get some people upset. She says Sharon used to be 2162 01:39:24,960 --> 01:39:27,880 Speaker 3: a Bogan name in her day, probably still is. She 2163 01:39:28,000 --> 01:39:32,240 Speaker 3: also liked Xanthi, Corfai and Pearl. Thank you for that, Eileen, 2164 01:39:32,360 --> 01:39:36,240 Speaker 3: appreciate And I think, I look, maybe I was surprised 2165 01:39:36,280 --> 01:39:38,519 Speaker 3: with one of them. Probably unlikely. What do you think? 2166 01:39:38,600 --> 01:39:40,519 Speaker 22: And oh, well, I just I would like to point 2167 01:39:40,520 --> 01:39:44,120 Speaker 22: out that the same family, the Windsors, who gave you know, 2168 01:39:44,160 --> 01:39:46,320 Speaker 22: the queen the name Elizabeth, they seem to be fans 2169 01:39:46,360 --> 01:39:49,120 Speaker 22: of Charlotte as well, so you know, maybe they're Bogans. 2170 01:39:49,240 --> 01:39:49,560 Speaker 22: I don't know. 2171 01:39:50,120 --> 01:39:52,760 Speaker 3: This is not Charlotte spelt with a c H.
