1
00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:04,560
Speaker 1: New Zealand's voice of reason is Mike the mic asking

2
00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:08,719
Speaker 1: breakfast with the range Rover villa designed to intrigue and

3
00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:10,120
Speaker 1: use Tog's head be BILLI.

4
00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:12,239
Speaker 2: You're welcome today the four year term, the warning to

5
00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:15,400
Speaker 2: the yelectricity big boys about retail deals and stacking the market.

6
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:18,320
Speaker 2: We found another counselor taking the mickey. Yesterday it was

7
00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:20,800
Speaker 2: getting paid for not turning up. Today they do turn up,

8
00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:23,319
Speaker 2: but they're in Scotland. Tim Katie do the Week. Richard

9
00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:27,520
Speaker 2: Arnold Stateside, Murray Olds and the Mighty Australia pasking seven

10
00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:29,840
Speaker 2: past six, Welcome to the day. Couple of hardcore reality

11
00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:31,720
Speaker 2: checks this week, as a result of the arrival of

12
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:35,840
Speaker 2: the Trump sequel, BP summed up the climate dilemma very succinctly.

13
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:39,360
Speaker 2: I thought we got it wrong on net zero. We

14
00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:42,920
Speaker 2: got it wrong on net zero. Net zero has become

15
00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:46,320
Speaker 2: an unobtainable obsession, a business decision for many thousands of

16
00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:49,040
Speaker 2: companies all over the world, driven not by clear sighted

17
00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:52,120
Speaker 2: intelligence but woke nonsense and a desire not to stand

18
00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:55,120
Speaker 2: out from the crowd. That mad, insecure feeling you had

19
00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:58,040
Speaker 2: when you were tend in the schoolyard, not to look different,

20
00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:01,120
Speaker 2: say anything unusual, or attract a teen, as it turns out,

21
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:02,880
Speaker 2: stays with you all the way up to the boardrooms,

22
00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:05,920
Speaker 2: who get sucked into believing that spending billions, cutting jobs,

23
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:08,680
Speaker 2: foregoing growth would somehow lead to saving the planet. We

24
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:11,560
Speaker 2: got it wrong on net zero, so BP are back

25
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:14,320
Speaker 2: in the oil business because Trump said drill, Baby, drill.

26
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:16,840
Speaker 2: That was a campaign slogan in an American election with

27
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:19,600
Speaker 2: the flow on clearly that affected the whole world. And

28
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:22,720
Speaker 2: then AID nothing wrong with aid but a Labour prime

29
00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:26,840
Speaker 2: minister in Britain cut AID to pay for defense and

30
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 2: the pole said he did the right thing. Sixty six

31
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:31,200
Speaker 2: percent of Britain think there' spent too much on AID,

32
00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 2: and when they hear a transportation system for refugees in

33
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:37,880
Speaker 2: Eastern Europe uses a Porsche dealer and they're paying for it,

34
00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 2: who can blame them? Our aid in the Pacific, until

35
00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:44,959
Speaker 2: recently largely unaudited. The idea of helping the helpless is worthy,

36
00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:47,800
Speaker 2: but the reason it never ends is because aid becomes

37
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 2: an industry and the helpless really get actual help. UNRA,

38
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 2: as a UNAID agency, have a look at their record

39
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 2: and see how keen you are to keep giving. It

40
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 2: is human nature. Most ideas start off well but blow

41
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:02,480
Speaker 2: out into a combination of madness, waste, expansion, slackness until

42
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 2: someone comes along and says enough. The core principles of

43
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:08,240
Speaker 2: AID and a cleaner planet remain laudable goals and ideals.

44
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:10,840
Speaker 2: But until we can bring some discipline to the execution,

45
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:13,880
Speaker 2: some rigid to the containment and parameters of the targets,

46
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:17,720
Speaker 2: and some realism around what's actually practically achievable, it will

47
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:20,400
Speaker 2: always be hijacked by the tryhards, do good as and zealots.

48
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:23,080
Speaker 2: We will always make the same mistake. It will end

49
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:25,840
Speaker 2: up needing a German election type result or a Trump

50
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:28,240
Speaker 2: type victory to bring us back to our senses.

51
00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:32,560
Speaker 3: News of the world in ninety seconds.

52
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 2: But they have revolving world leaders in Washington today. It

53
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:36,360
Speaker 2: is Kere of Britain.

54
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:43,600
Speaker 4: We are living through a very very significant moment for

55
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:47,679
Speaker 4: our alliance between our two countries and indeed for all

56
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:51,640
Speaker 4: the freedom loving democracies in the world.

57
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:54,480
Speaker 2: That's Mandelssohn, of course, who's paving the way for his

58
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:58,000
Speaker 2: due there any second now tomorrow. Zelensky of Ukraine, the

59
00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:00,440
Speaker 2: Irish PM, by the way, met Zelensky where he hopped

60
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:00,799
Speaker 2: on the plane.

61
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:04,160
Speaker 5: Value is very much to support he has received from

62
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 5: the United States, very strong partner to Ukraine, and I

63
00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:10,920
Speaker 5: think the engagement to track that is visiting Washington is.

64
00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:13,040
Speaker 2: Good and it actually speaking of people on the way

65
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:15,720
Speaker 2: to America, although to Florida, not Washington. We've got Andrew

66
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,520
Speaker 2: and Tristan isn't the type brothers. Now they've been sprung

67
00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:20,359
Speaker 2: from Romania, which is not good news.

68
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:20,680
Speaker 6: For the UK.

69
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,680
Speaker 7: Not only has the Trump administration interfered in the domestic

70
00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:26,880
Speaker 7: affairs of Romania, but also interfered in the domestic affairs

71
00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:27,320
Speaker 7: of the UK.

72
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:29,400
Speaker 6: The tapes were.

73
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:32,679
Speaker 7: Scheduled to be extradited from Romania to the UK to

74
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:35,360
Speaker 7: face charges of human trafficking and raide to.

75
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:37,880
Speaker 2: The Middle East, where more Palestinians have been released.

76
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:40,160
Speaker 8: For more than one hundred and fifty days. We were

77
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 8: subjected to the most severe beatings and humiliation. There's nothing

78
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:46,400
Speaker 8: worse than such treatment. I was detained for a year

79
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:50,440
Speaker 8: and only today I returned. Thank God. I'm very excited

80
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:51,360
Speaker 8: to see my children.

81
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:54,960
Speaker 2: A rocket, one of Elons has taken off and on

82
00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:58,640
Speaker 2: some gear from Estrophage. Now Estrophorge are into mining stuff

83
00:03:58,680 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 2: in space.

84
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 5: Problem is with Earth. Is that all of the good

85
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 5: oar sources of platinum group metal we've mined, and everything

86
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:07,960
Speaker 5: we're looking at now is thousands of meters under the Earth.

87
00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:10,840
Speaker 5: We know this exists in space. We know it's readily available.

88
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,400
Speaker 5: Our mission is just instead of going down, we want.

89
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:13,680
Speaker 9: To go up.

90
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:15,920
Speaker 2: And then to New Mexico where they found the bodies

91
00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 2: of Gene Heckman, his wife and his dog. Nothing suspicious,

92
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:21,400
Speaker 2: they say, they just don't know how Yet here is well,

93
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:23,640
Speaker 2: Here he is twenty two years ago, reflecting, that's all

94
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 2: I ever.

95
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:24,400
Speaker 9: Wanted to do.

96
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 3: So few people ever get what they really want in life.

97
00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:35,080
Speaker 3: It's a make believe world, and it's what I wanted

98
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 3: to do as a child, and I fulfilled a lot

99
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:38,679
Speaker 3: on my dreams.

100
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:43,240
Speaker 2: She was ninety five. Finally, his daughter says, carbon monoxide poisoning. Finally,

101
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 2: what looks like our final update on Tiffany Hennott, the

102
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:49,480
Speaker 2: mirror of dot Illinois, described by some as the worst

103
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:51,280
Speaker 2: mirror in the country, The woman who got into that

104
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:54,120
Speaker 2: flight at the town hall meeting a couple of weeks ago. Now,

105
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:55,799
Speaker 2: despite saying she was going to win by a slating

106
00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:58,520
Speaker 2: a landslide, she has in fact lost by a landslide

107
00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 2: to Jason House in Theocratic primary. Our House got eighty

108
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:03,560
Speaker 2: eight percent of the boat and you didn't even get

109
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:05,920
Speaker 2: a thousand votes. So that is the end of her.

110
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:09,200
Speaker 2: In the end of this in ninety our Ki is

111
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:10,640
Speaker 2: going to come back to a problem. He's got a

112
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:12,440
Speaker 2: number out this morning that no one's going to like.

113
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:14,720
Speaker 2: In twenty twenty four, they got the highest level of

114
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 2: people claiming asylum ever well since records began in nineteen

115
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:19,920
Speaker 2: seventy nine. There were one hundred and eight thousand, one

116
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:22,680
Speaker 2: hundred and thirty eight people who claimed asylum, which is

117
00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:24,840
Speaker 2: up eighteen percent on the previous year and almost twice

118
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:26,440
Speaker 2: what it was in twenty twenty one. So there's a

119
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:28,680
Speaker 2: problem to go home to. Twelve past six.

120
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 1: The Mike Hosking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered

121
00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:36,599
Speaker 1: by News Talks EV.

122
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:41,360
Speaker 2: The US economy might be slowing. Jobless claims for the

123
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:43,720
Speaker 2: weekend in Feb twenty two up twenty two thousand from

124
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,800
Speaker 2: the previous week's revised level, higher than the Dow Jones estimate,

125
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:52,360
Speaker 2: so some concerned there. I guess fifteen past six now

126
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:55,800
Speaker 2: brom and JMI Wealth Andrew Keller have very good morning

127
00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,600
Speaker 2: to you. Yeah, very good morning, Bote. Let's deal with

128
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 2: some myia watering numbers and bring in in video.

129
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:04,320
Speaker 10: Yeah, the guy thought it was a solid result.

130
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:07,040
Speaker 11: I mean, you know for a three trillion dollar company.

131
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:12,080
Speaker 11: So net income during the quarter lifted twenty to twenty

132
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:14,840
Speaker 11: two point one billion, that's ninety one percent jump from

133
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 11: the previous year. They quarterly sales, they're just shy of

134
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:20,800
Speaker 11: forty billion dollars, they were up seventy eight percent. I

135
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:25,479
Speaker 11: demand driving that full fiscal year revenue just a mere

136
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,760
Speaker 11: one hundred and thirty and a half billion dollars. They

137
00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:32,800
Speaker 11: guidance for the current quarter forty three billion. The data

138
00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:35,120
Speaker 11: took some interesting numbers in here. Make the data center

139
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:38,920
Speaker 11: business now ninety one percent of total sales, and in

140
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:43,160
Speaker 11: the last two years that has increased tenfold. So that's

141
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:46,320
Speaker 11: you know, it's staggering really the lift of Seene in that.

142
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:48,880
Speaker 11: But here's the thing, Mike. Leading into the result, the

143
00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 11: share price was up sort of three point seven percent,

144
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:53,960
Speaker 11: and after ours trading the market sort of liked it,

145
00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:57,400
Speaker 11: but there's been no follow through in the overnight trading.

146
00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:00,920
Speaker 11: In fact, the share price is down three point eight percent,

147
00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:03,640
Speaker 11: and I didn't think there was really anything in that

148
00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:06,839
Speaker 11: result to unsettle the market. I mean, revenue in twenty

149
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:09,600
Speaker 11: twenty four more than doubled from a year earlier at

150
00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:14,280
Speaker 11: beat andless expectations. Sales growth, which remember all centers around

151
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:16,960
Speaker 11: the Black world ship, the new artificial intelligence ship. The

152
00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:18,720
Speaker 11: only thing I can see here, I mean, we know

153
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,680
Speaker 11: megacap companies are pouring billions into that. The only thing

154
00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:24,480
Speaker 11: I can see here is that those that the rate

155
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:28,680
Speaker 11: of data center sales growth is slowing, and that does

156
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:30,880
Speaker 11: make up most of the revenue. And if you're really

157
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:33,440
Speaker 11: searching for negatives, there were some concerns over the margin

158
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 11: as well. Look, they downplayed the deep seek issue. Might

159
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 11: They basically said that even the more efficient AI models

160
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:45,040
Speaker 11: will still require plenty of processing power in the long run.

161
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:47,640
Speaker 11: So yeah, I'm a little bit surprised that the share

162
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 11: price is down.

163
00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:50,920
Speaker 2: Now do give it? What does this mean? So we're

164
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:53,800
Speaker 2: up on confidence, I'm thinking good, but your own activity

165
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:55,720
Speaker 2: things down? So how do we explain this? What's going

166
00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:56,080
Speaker 2: on there?

167
00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:56,880
Speaker 6: Yeah?

168
00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 11: I think this, I think what's happened here? So I

169
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:02,360
Speaker 11: amresaid released them the business outly yesday. Good high frequency

170
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:05,360
Speaker 11: read on the state of play context, Mike, I think

171
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:07,800
Speaker 11: is important here because as twenty twenty four closed out,

172
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:11,360
Speaker 11: business confidence was really lifting lots of hope around the

173
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:14,960
Speaker 11: prospect of lower interest rates, the economy improving into twenty

174
00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:17,000
Speaker 11: twenty four. We saw a bit of sort of caution

175
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:20,720
Speaker 11: come into play in January, but business confidence then has

176
00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:24,040
Speaker 11: risen four points to plus fifty eight in February, bit

177
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:27,920
Speaker 11: of a lift expected own activity. Generally the mood lifted,

178
00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:32,000
Speaker 11: but when asked about their own activity, you know, when

179
00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:34,839
Speaker 11: usd around their own activity, that edged up only one points,

180
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:37,000
Speaker 11: so not much there. And when, as you say, when

181
00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:41,320
Speaker 11: they talked about their past own activity, what actually happened

182
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:44,600
Speaker 11: with your business, which is the best indicator of GDP growth,

183
00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:47,599
Speaker 11: that fell three points, So you've got a bit of

184
00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:50,280
Speaker 11: a mix in pricing and cost indication. I think the

185
00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:51,959
Speaker 11: Arbians that will be comforted by a bit of a

186
00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,480
Speaker 11: lower in one year ahead inflation expectations two point seven

187
00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:56,280
Speaker 11: to two point five.

188
00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:58,200
Speaker 2: And Mike, the one bright spot there.

189
00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:01,720
Speaker 11: We've talked about the Agrosector lift lifting us leading us

190
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:04,000
Speaker 11: out into recovery while they were leading the pack in

191
00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:07,280
Speaker 11: terms of export intentions and investment intentions, and a bit

192
00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 11: of a pullback in residential construction index. Mike, I'm speculating

193
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:14,200
Speaker 11: the some trepidation over here of the speed and timing

194
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:16,680
Speaker 11: of recovery, and that I think is the key mic.

195
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:19,760
Speaker 11: We're sort of hanging onto that positive feel. But there's

196
00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 11: a little bit of uncertainty. Now there's the bud where's

197
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:26,959
Speaker 11: there's a little bit of uncertainty about the sustainability of

198
00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:29,800
Speaker 11: that bounce back and growth that we think we're going

199
00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:33,080
Speaker 11: to see in the fourth quarter of twenty twenty four.

200
00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:36,000
Speaker 11: There's a little bit of concern now or can we

201
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:38,560
Speaker 11: follow that through? And I think there's a little bit

202
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,640
Speaker 11: of realization now that maybe this is a second half

203
00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:44,000
Speaker 11: of the year's story, not a first half of the

204
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:44,600
Speaker 11: year's story.

205
00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:46,319
Speaker 2: Okay, just give it us a quick one. Is it

206
00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:48,600
Speaker 2: the perfect feed that did it? I'm looking at ten

207
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:52,120
Speaker 2: pieces of secret recipe chicken, ten wicked wings, large chips,

208
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:55,600
Speaker 2: large potato, and gravy at fifty six forty nine?

209
00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:56,280
Speaker 6: Is that what did it?

210
00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:00,320
Speaker 11: I've got absolutely no idea really, Mike about the Miniu

211
00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:02,280
Speaker 11: tie of restaurant brands, because I.

212
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:03,360
Speaker 2: Have to I don't need it.

213
00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:05,520
Speaker 3: But the result looked pretty good.

214
00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:07,520
Speaker 11: I thought net profit after tax twenty six to a

215
00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:10,800
Speaker 11: half million, up to sixty three percent, possibly a touch

216
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:16,400
Speaker 11: below analyst expectations. Secle sales record level one point four billion. Again,

217
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:19,240
Speaker 11: here's the result, Mike looked kind of solid. Yes, there

218
00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:22,720
Speaker 11: are some challenging conditions in Australia California, but the share

219
00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:25,480
Speaker 11: price yesday fell six percent. So what's happening now is

220
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:28,439
Speaker 11: even the slightest little bit bit of a miss. And

221
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:31,880
Speaker 11: the share markets are sort of punishing companies, right, give

222
00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:36,079
Speaker 11: me some numbers. So the US share market does not

223
00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:39,200
Speaker 11: like Fridays, Mike, because they're worried. You know why, because

224
00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:41,959
Speaker 11: they're worried about what Trump is going to say on

225
00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:45,440
Speaker 11: the weekend. So the Dow Jones it's up, it's up

226
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:48,400
Speaker 11: point three percent forty three, five hundred and sixty seven,

227
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:50,559
Speaker 11: but the S and P five hundred down a quarter percent,

228
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:53,400
Speaker 11: five nine four to one, and the Nasdaq down over

229
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:56,439
Speaker 11: one percent eighteen thousand, eight hundred and sixty nine. So

230
00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:59,080
Speaker 11: they worry what's going to come out of the White

231
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,360

262
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:34,839
Speaker 2: of growing conditions have been beautiful in many parts of

279
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:24,880
Speaker 2: film of all time, which really isn't a thing given

280

281
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:29,880
Speaker 2: They don't release actual data to prove that. They just

282
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:33,360
Speaker 2: rely on Labour's high trust model past the previous record holder,

294
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:11,439
Speaker 3: You keep people from going in the gorge?

295
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:15,160
Speaker 13: No, you need to stop what's in the gorge.

296
00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:21,880
Speaker 9: From coming out. What the hell is that? The gorge

297

00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:06,280
Speaker 2: of the program. Then the Minister of Energy, Simon Watson,

313
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:10,000
Speaker 2: whether he's really materially changed anything in the power sector.

314
00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:11,400
Speaker 2: That's after seven thirty for you.

315
00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:17,480
Speaker 3: Mike has game. We've been sateful, engaging and vital. The

316
00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:18,680
Speaker 3: Mike Hosking.

317
00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:22,280
Speaker 1: Breakfast with Bailey's Real Estate Finding the buyers. Others can't

318
00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:23,200
Speaker 1: use togs head.

319
00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:25,320
Speaker 2: Bes Charna's literally just arrived at the White House. It

320
00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:27,160
Speaker 2: was a fairly brief handshake. There wasn't a lot of

321
00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:29,720
Speaker 2: hugging and wrestling that went on the other day with Macron,

322
00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:32,800
Speaker 2: so just basically in Trump gave a thumbs up. Dama

323
00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:35,160
Speaker 2: was smiling. So we'll get to Richard Arnold very shortly.

324
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:37,520
Speaker 2: Mike speaking of kiwi fruit. Now, that's an ongoing issue

325
00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:39,720
Speaker 2: and we should spend more time talking about this. We've

326
00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:41,680
Speaker 2: got Zespri on the program the other day, but they

327
00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:44,280
Speaker 2: weren't really able to help because it's not their department,

328
00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:47,640
Speaker 2: although it is their issue. Mike's speaking of kiwi fruit

329
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:49,760
Speaker 2: actually got Andrew hogad On in just a moment. This

330
00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:53,480
Speaker 2: is perfectly timed. I hate the fact that they sell

331
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:57,000
Speaker 2: Italian kiwi fruit at our supermarket. Great New Zealand Kiwi

332
00:15:57,040 --> 00:15:59,200
Speaker 2: fruit doing well. Couldn't agree more. Be nice if the

333
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 2: New Zealand could gets we can get. But it's a

334
00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:03,520
Speaker 2: seasonal thing. But here's the problem. We've suffered the same thing.

335
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:06,280
Speaker 2: What you don't realize is because, rightly or wrongly, as

336
00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:09,280
Speaker 2: a consumer issue, you assume that kiwi fruit is locally

337
00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:11,760
Speaker 2: produced Kiwi fruit when in fact it isn't, and we

338
00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:14,600
Speaker 2: brought home this Italian stuff. And the problem with the

339
00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:17,200
Speaker 2: Italian stuff is not only is it unpatriotic to buy it,

340
00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:20,840
Speaker 2: it's crap. It doesn't taste like a kiwi fruit. It's shocking.

341
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:22,720
Speaker 2: But you only know that when you get at home

342
00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:24,360
Speaker 2: and start eating it, so it's not like you see

343
00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:25,840
Speaker 2: it at the suit. We just need to be more

344
00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:28,240
Speaker 2: aware that when you're at the supermarket, have a look

345
00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:30,480
Speaker 2: at what you're buying, and if it's not the zespery stuff,

346
00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:32,040
Speaker 2: then it's somewhere else, and if it's somewhere else, it's

347
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:37,280
Speaker 2: probably not a good twenty two to seven, Speaking of

348
00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:40,320
Speaker 2: which getting approvable for new hort and egg products should

349
00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:42,400
Speaker 2: be about to speed up, the Ministry of Regulations made

350
00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:46,000
Speaker 2: eight sixteen recommendations to MPI and the EPA to improve

351
00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:50,200
Speaker 2: our current processes. Included new time targets, which hopefully will

352
00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:52,760
Speaker 2: get you through the backlog of applications of which there

353
00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:54,880
Speaker 2: are some. Apparently some people have been waiting for five years.

354
00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:57,800
Speaker 2: I'm told Food Safety Minister Andrew Hoggard will it's Andrew morning,

355
00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:00,600
Speaker 2: good mind wake, how is it possible wait for five

356
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:01,400
Speaker 2: years for anything.

357
00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:05,520
Speaker 14: Ah, good question, and that's hopefully we'll get on top of.

358
00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:09,119
Speaker 14: I think there's just been in some of these situations,

359
00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:13,920
Speaker 14: and these are particularly with the EPA, where have just

360
00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:18,840
Speaker 14: sat there people are waiting and just massive amounts of

361
00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:21,680
Speaker 14: paperwork and uncertain as to what paperwork they've got to

362
00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:26,000
Speaker 14: produce and provide, and things keep going back and forth,

363
00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:28,080
Speaker 14: but of a never ending circle.

364
00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:30,520
Speaker 2: Is this an easy fix? In other words, when you

365
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:32,919
Speaker 2: go in there with a bomb, blow it up, simplified,

366
00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:35,399
Speaker 2: it will be rectified? Or is it more complex than that?

367
00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:39,440
Speaker 14: Look, there'll be so within these recommendations that are going

368
00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:43,240
Speaker 14: forward now there's some. It's a good start. I've got

369
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:46,840
Speaker 14: more that I'll be bringing forward for ACVM later in

370
00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:50,560
Speaker 14: the year or perhaps into next year. There's fever working consultation.

371
00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:52,399
Speaker 14: It's got to happen before I can bring that. And

372
00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:56,879
Speaker 14: I believe Kenny's got the same for making improvements around

373
00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:58,040
Speaker 14: the has No Act as well.

374
00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:00,560
Speaker 2: Right, So as you came in from the farm to

375
00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:04,720
Speaker 2: the poisoned environs of politics, did you know all this

376
00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:06,640
Speaker 2: as a man of the land or is this come

377
00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:07,480
Speaker 2: as a surprise to you?

378
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:12,919
Speaker 14: On you particular for the horticultural stuff there. I'd certainly

379
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:16,920
Speaker 14: heard of it, the concerns around the time delays, but

380
00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:20,359
Speaker 14: getting in there and seen it firsthand and seeing the

381
00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:24,040
Speaker 14: processes and how long thing to take in that was

382
00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:25,320
Speaker 14: a bit of an eye opener for sure.

383
00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:27,600
Speaker 2: Okay, So it says two hundred and seventy two million

384
00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:29,800
Speaker 2: dollars in savings over twenty years, which is only thirteen

385
00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:31,520
Speaker 2: million dollars a year. Yes, you want to do it,

386
00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:33,560
Speaker 2: but it's hardly going to revolutionize the industry, is it.

387
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:35,240
Speaker 2: I mean, is this actually a big problem.

388
00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:39,200
Speaker 14: Well, give you an example. So last year there was

389
00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:45,080
Speaker 14: a potential hold up or problem with bird repellents may seed,

390
00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:48,920
Speaker 14: and this was just before I was about Amaze and

391
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:51,879
Speaker 14: everyone else was about the Primer Maze, where there'd been

392
00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:54,840
Speaker 14: a ruling on the paperwork you had isn't good enough.

393
00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:57,160
Speaker 14: You have to go and get new paperwork, and it's

394
00:18:57,160 --> 00:18:58,960
Speaker 14: going to take this time. And that would have meant

395
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:01,400
Speaker 14: there would have been no bird repellent to be able

396
00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:04,040
Speaker 14: to put in may seed anywhere around the country, and

397
00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:07,280
Speaker 14: it would have had huge impacts on you know, not

398
00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:09,399
Speaker 14: only my farm, but every other farm that grows maize

399
00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:13,960
Speaker 14: and so been. Thankfully that didn't come about and that

400
00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 14: bird current was available. But that's sort of an example

401
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:20,439
Speaker 14: of how actually holding up one of these products can

402
00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:24,480
Speaker 14: have a major detrimental impact across the whole sector. You

403
00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:27,639
Speaker 14: two seventy two million is about for the cost to

404
00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:32,160
Speaker 14: the providers of the products. There's that cost that's hard

405
00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:35,639
Speaker 14: to quantify to the farmers of this country. Whereas if

406
00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:39,600
Speaker 14: we can't use chemicals, if certain new technologies aren't available,

407
00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:42,119
Speaker 14: it can just make an absolute mess of our farming business.

408
00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:43,920
Speaker 2: It's good stuff. Now do you know anything about the

409
00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:46,320
Speaker 2: New Zealand Food Innovation Network signing a deal with the

410
00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:47,959
Speaker 2: Canadian Food Innovation Network?

411
00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:54,560
Speaker 14: No, I don't precisely. I did visit them two weeks ago,

412
00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:55,959
Speaker 14: but we didn't talk about Canada.

413
00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:59,520
Speaker 2: Ah interesting because they've signed a deal whereby we're going

414
00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:01,959
Speaker 2: to be able to to get access to international markets

415
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:05,840
Speaker 2: memory ending of understanding, use their expertise to get access

416
00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:09,680
Speaker 2: to international markets, faster manufacturing knowledge, all that sort of stuff.

417
00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:10,800
Speaker 2: Whose department would that be?

418
00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:15,920
Speaker 14: Some of the stuff they operate and does come under.

419
00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:18,520
Speaker 14: So I was talking about with them around some of

420
00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:22,760
Speaker 14: the challenges they have with food safety rules and how

421
00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:24,840
Speaker 14: because they're kind of in it you know, we've got

422
00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:27,879
Speaker 14: a system that's designed to put square pegs and square

423
00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:32,440
Speaker 14: holes and doesn't recognize innovation very well. And so you know,

424
00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:34,720
Speaker 14: I was talking to them and following up with them

425
00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:39,240
Speaker 14: around how can what what do we need to change

426
00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:42,639
Speaker 14: in the system to enable more innovation to occur?

427
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:45,560
Speaker 2: Interesting, Well, chase them up on the Canadian thin because

428
00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:48,440
Speaker 2: I'm interested in that. By the way, Italian Tellian QIWI

429
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:49,399
Speaker 2: for it. You know anything about that?

430
00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:55,600
Speaker 14: Well, I do know that Zespriy do have license agreements

431
00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:58,680
Speaker 14: with growers and Deftly and other parts of the world.

432
00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:01,040
Speaker 2: It's not that because we got Zespri and they said

433
00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:03,520
Speaker 2: it's not them. So it's just these these rogue Italians

434
00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:05,840
Speaker 2: that are growing this dodgy fruit. You need to be

435
00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:07,000
Speaker 2: under the Andrew.

436
00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:10,920
Speaker 14: Well, it's a free market and we allow people to

437
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:14,800
Speaker 14: import to our country. Song safe. I'm not the Minister

438
00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:16,680
Speaker 14: of food tastiness, just safety.

439
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:19,960
Speaker 2: Nice to talk to you, have good I'm not the

440
00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:23,600
Speaker 2: Minister of food tastiness. Quote of the day so far

441
00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:27,320
Speaker 2: seventeen to two. Husking Austrey has got themselves a government

442
00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:29,320
Speaker 2: and it's another one of these governments where the people

443
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:31,760
Speaker 2: who won the election, i e. The FPO, the Freedom

444
00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:35,399
Speaker 2: Party don't get to participate, so it's a Conservative People's Party,

445
00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:38,600
Speaker 2: the center left Social Democrats and the NEOs Party. The

446
00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:40,200
Speaker 2: NEOs Party got to go back to their people to

447
00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:42,040
Speaker 2: get it all signed off, but that is it made.

448
00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:44,800
Speaker 2: There's a three party coalition, but the party that won

449
00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:47,840
Speaker 2: the election does not get to be involved in government.

450
00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:48,760
Speaker 2: Seems to be a trend.

453
00:21:57,920 --> 00:21:59,720
Speaker 2: Mike, I'm interested in the trend of the biggest party

454
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:01,800
Speaker 2: not getting the government. What other country did this happen?

455
00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:03,760
Speaker 2: And have a look at Germany and see what's going

456
00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:04,440
Speaker 2: on there at the moment.

460
00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:14,200
Speaker 2: So, what have we got at the bottom of this?

461
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:15,760
Speaker 2: Is this an accident or something else.

462
00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:17,440

00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:27,040
Speaker 15: winning actor Gene Hackman. His wife Betsy had one of

466
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:29,520
Speaker 15: their three dogs. The gas company has been called in

467
00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:33,520
Speaker 15: NAO's officials say investigations are ongoing. Gen Hapman was ninety five,

468
00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:37,040
Speaker 15: his wife was some thirty years younger. They were in

469
00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:40,640
Speaker 15: different rooms when their bodies were found. They had really

470
00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:42,320
Speaker 15: been seen in the last couple of decades after they

471
00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:44,880
Speaker 15: quit Hollywood and moved to Sata Fai. Yet it would

472
00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:47,320
Speaker 15: be hard to think of actors apart from Hackman, who

473
00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:51,280
Speaker 15: appeared in so many well loved movies. He was someone

474
00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:53,800
Speaker 15: with a forty year career where he was nominated for

475
00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:56,119
Speaker 15: five Academy Awards and a host of other honors, and

476
00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:59,560
Speaker 15: won two Oscars for The French Connection and Unforgiven but favored.

477
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:02,639
Speaker 15: Hackman performances would have to be linked to the time

478
00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:04,760
Speaker 15: you're thinking about right. One of his first roles was

479
00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:07,880
Speaker 15: Clyde's crazy brother in Bonnie and Clyde.

480
00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:11,240
Speaker 16: Timee ooh.

481
00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:14,600
Speaker 15: In earlier days, he had volunteered for the Marines, saying

482
00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:18,320
Speaker 15: he wanted some real life adventure. When he returned to California,

483
00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:22,040
Speaker 15: he did some plays with a group in Pasadena, Pasadena,

484
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:25,000
Speaker 15: where he was friends with few people except for Dustin Hoffman,

485
00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:26,880
Speaker 15: who also was there at the time. In some ways,

486
00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:29,480
Speaker 15: he seems to draw from movie stars of the past,

487
00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:32,480
Speaker 15: where they weren't models or young Celevswat drew from a

488
00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:35,960
Speaker 15: wider background. In nineteen seventy one, he appeared as detected

489
00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:38,080
Speaker 15: Jimmy Doyle in The French Connection, one of the most

490
00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:39,960
Speaker 15: famous car scenes ever.

491
00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:41,600
Speaker 6: You would have to say he would go right down

492
00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:45,160
Speaker 6: the street without any crowd control and it was really scary.

493
00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:45,920
Speaker 14: Yeah.

494
00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:50,000
Speaker 15: An early film I remember is the Conversation about invasion

495
00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:52,640
Speaker 15: of privacy. That film quite dramatic.

496
00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:55,359
Speaker 1: One surefire rule that I have learned in this business

497
00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:57,240
Speaker 1: is that I don't know anything about human nature.

498
00:23:57,240 --> 00:23:58,840
Speaker 6: I don't know anything about curiosity, but the.

499
00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:01,680
Speaker 15: Gene happening movie list and on. He said he loved

500
00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:04,160
Speaker 15: doing this work. He played well a lot of bad guys,

501
00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:08,159
Speaker 15: like his role opposite Christopher Reeve in Superman, Great Day

502
00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:11,959
Speaker 15: Superman Hackman. Had fun with all of this on screen

503
00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:12,920
Speaker 15: and off.

504
00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:14,720
Speaker 6: He said, have little kids come up to you on

505
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:17,000
Speaker 6: the street and say you're the evil guy, and it's

506
00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:17,560
Speaker 6: kind of fun.

507
00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:20,600
Speaker 15: Even when he was playing the coach in Who'sias there

508
00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:23,399
Speaker 15: was energy behind his rallying of the team. If you

509
00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:25,600
Speaker 15: put your effort in concentration and the plan to your

510
00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:27,399
Speaker 15: potential to be the best that you can be.

511
00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:28,639
Speaker 3: I don't care what the.

512
00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:30,240
Speaker 13: Scoreboard says at the end of the game.

513
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:32,119
Speaker 9: In my book, we're going to be winners.

514
00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:34,679
Speaker 15: Well, Mississippi burning Royal ten and bounds per side an

515
00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:37,240
Speaker 15: adventure and on we go. There is so much to

516
00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:39,439
Speaker 15: remember in the work of Gene Hackman.

517
00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:42,600
Speaker 2: Indeed, so he's just arrived literally moments ago. Pressures on

518
00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:44,159
Speaker 2: him to deliver something on Ukraine.

519
00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:47,760
Speaker 15: I guess, I guess would be the underline.

520
00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:47,959
Speaker 14: Right.

521
00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:50,600
Speaker 15: The meeting between Trump and Starmer is ongoing without the

522
00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:53,119
Speaker 15: arm wrestling as you mentioned, and handshake that was a

523
00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:56,200
Speaker 15: part of the American president's session earlier in the week

524
00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:58,720
Speaker 15: with the mccronin seems to be a statter for those two.

525
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,800
Speaker 15: The mccron session was by the French leader publicly correcting

526
00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:04,920
Speaker 15: Trump over his country's financial contribution to the defense of

527
00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:07,800
Speaker 15: Ukraine and the Russian invasion. Not clear that Starma will

528
00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:11,159
Speaker 15: get me any further. Starma has an outset increase in

529
00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:14,040
Speaker 15: British defense spending, as we've been noting in recent days,

530
00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:16,760
Speaker 15: Trump has welcomed that, with the British cutting back there

531
00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:20,119
Speaker 15: overseas development, a justice Washington is doing at the urging

532
00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:22,639
Speaker 15: of Elon Musk. Of course, Stama says the US should

533
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:24,960
Speaker 15: not make mistakes with Putin by agreeing to a cease

534
00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:27,399
Speaker 15: fire without any measures for a longer term piece. But

535
00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:30,680
Speaker 15: you wonder whether Trump is interested in any of that.

536
00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:35,160
Speaker 15: He appears already to have floated US responses to most

537
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:37,000
Speaker 15: of the things that the Russians want. So will any

538
00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:39,600
Speaker 15: of that or the meeting coming up with Ukraine Zelensky

539
00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:43,080
Speaker 15: later in the week work to underpin the fading post

540
00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:44,640
Speaker 15: war US European alliance.

541
00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:46,800
Speaker 2: Yes, tomorrow's you're going to be watching that with a

542
00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:48,600
Speaker 2: great deal event was thank you, Richard ce you next week.

543
00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:51,239
Speaker 2: The gold card deal, by the way, five million, one

544
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:52,679
Speaker 2: of the most expensive in the world, but I think

545
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:55,720
Speaker 2: it's going to go gangbusters. Interesting developments this morning. You

546
00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:57,760
Speaker 2: would not if you pay your five million, that's US

547
00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:01,080
Speaker 2: and when you say, PITHI, you're not giving it to Trump.

548
00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:02,960
Speaker 2: You're investing in America, of course, but you get the

549
00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:06,320
Speaker 2: green card type operation. Anyway, you would not be subject

550
00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:09,720
Speaker 2: to taxes on your overseas income, which is interesting And

551
00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:11,480
Speaker 2: is there interest in this? You bet the ris in

552
00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:14,119
Speaker 2: Singapore interest has gone up twenty four hundred and seventy

553
00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:17,320
Speaker 2: three percent due by twelve hundred and forty percent, Japan

554
00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:19,960
Speaker 2: fourteen hundred and fifteen, Canada eight hundred and thirty percent,

555
00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:22,120
Speaker 2: Germany four hundred and forty seven percent, the UK, Indian

556
00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:25,400
Speaker 2: and Australia a notable increases as well, two hundred and three,

557
00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:28,840
Speaker 2: one thirty eight and ninety percent, respectively. Everyone wants to

558
00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:31,399
Speaker 2: go to America cent to seven the.

559
00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:34,400
Speaker 3: Mic Cosking Breakfast with the Range Rover Villa.

560
00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:37,639
Speaker 2: News Togsdad B You're off on a tangent Mike. Parties

561
00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:39,320
Speaker 2: getting the largest share of the votes and not getting

562
00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:41,640
Speaker 2: the government as common Look at Bill English as nationally. Yeah,

563
00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:43,320
Speaker 2: you look at twenty seventeen. That's not the point. The

564
00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:46,120
Speaker 2: point is in places are Germany probably not the best

565
00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:48,520
Speaker 2: example because the AfD came second, but look at Holland

566
00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:51,800
Speaker 2: they won, Austria, the far right party won. It's the

567
00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:56,760
Speaker 2: packed by all the other parties to lock out the

568
00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:59,040
Speaker 2: winner of the election. That's what I'm talking about. I'm

569
00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:01,680
Speaker 2: not talking about an MMP environment where anyone gets to choose.

570
00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:04,000
Speaker 2: Generally speaking, you'd go one way or the other. It's

571
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:06,639
Speaker 2: the pack that they all agreed in Germany, everyone agreed

572
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:10,679
Speaker 2: not to work with the AfD. In Austria, everybody agreed

573
00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:12,480
Speaker 2: not to work with the far right party there. That's

574
00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:14,960
Speaker 2: what I'm saying. Good news, Mike on Kiwifruit been cutting

575
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:17,280
Speaker 2: the old Red into the pack houses this week, so

576
00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:20,080
Speaker 2: they should be in the supermarket near you soon's that's

577
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:22,960
Speaker 2: the big buzz in Kiwifruit. I mean, obviously the Green

578
00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:24,320
Speaker 2: and the Gold of the Way to Go and have

579
00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:26,960
Speaker 2: been for years, but this red has got some real

580
00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:29,360
Speaker 2: ooph behind it. You want a fun fact, if you'd

581
00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:33,480
Speaker 2: put one thousand bucks into Nvidia a year ago, you'd

582
00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:36,399
Speaker 2: have sixteen hundred and sixty dollars, and you go, oh, yeah, whatever.

583
00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:39,520
Speaker 2: If you'd put a thousand bucks into Invidia five years ago,

584
00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:44,080
Speaker 2: you'd have nineteen thousand return of eighteen hundred and sixty

585
00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:46,640
Speaker 2: three percent. If you'd put a thousand bucks into Invidia

586
00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:50,120
Speaker 2: ten years ago, you'd have two hundred and thirty six

587
00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:54,159
Speaker 2: thousand dollars. If you put it into Invidia one thousand

588
00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:56,280
Speaker 2: dollars when it went public back in nineteen ninety nine

589
00:27:56,320 --> 00:27:58,119
Speaker 2: and you thought, oh this could be good, you'd have

590
00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:04,080
Speaker 2: five point three million dollars. Hey, that's the value of

591
00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:09,399
Speaker 2: foresight as opposed to hindsight. Five minutes away from seven.

592
00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:13,399
Speaker 3: All the ins and the ouse. It's the fizz with

593
00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:17,040
Speaker 3: business fiber. Take your business productivity to the next level.

594
00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:18,760
Speaker 2: Right jobs A to odd. You got good news and

595
00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:20,680
Speaker 2: I'm a man who delivers. So the numbers out this

596
00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:23,320
Speaker 2: morning for January, job adds up four percent month on

597
00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:25,840
Speaker 2: Month's strongest growth in six months. First time it's been

598
00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:29,160
Speaker 2: positive in the last six months, so that's good. Applications

599
00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:32,520
Speaker 2: for job up two percent, but that's slowing. In other words,

600
00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:34,639
Speaker 2: you know, yes, it's still up, but not as much

601
00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:36,200
Speaker 2: as it has been. Year on year, ads are still

602
00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:37,920
Speaker 2: down seventeen percent, so we got a ways to go.

603
00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:42,440
Speaker 2: Every region except Taranaki saw job ad growth month to month.

604
00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:44,480
Speaker 2: They were down eleven percent. What's going on in the Naki?

605
00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:48,800
Speaker 2: Tasman highest number of job adds up eighteen percent, Marlborough

606
00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:51,640
Speaker 2: twelve percent, O Targo eight percent O Targo. You guys,

607
00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:53,800
Speaker 2: you're only one percent down year on year, and that's

608
00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:57,040
Speaker 2: because Denedan's the new christ Judge. For a while, everyone

609
00:28:57,080 --> 00:28:58,600
Speaker 2: wanted to go to christ is still a heard about

610
00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:00,959
Speaker 2: the crime rates and then suddenly they went, oh, well,

611
00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:02,720
Speaker 2: mars Well, carry on down to the need and see

612
00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:05,320
Speaker 2: what she looks like there. In terms of numbers per capita,

613
00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:07,960
Speaker 2: Auckland up five percent, Canterbury up seven percent. That's the

614
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:10,440
Speaker 2: most volume because you've got you know, numbers, you've got people,

615
00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:14,320
Speaker 2: got population. Only three sectors saw negative growth. You can't

616
00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:18,960
Speaker 2: have negative growth, it's it's negative and growth. That doesn't anyway.

617
00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:22,160
Speaker 2: Legal down seventeen, insurance and super down sixteen, accounting down

618
00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:25,560
Speaker 2: three percent. The most job demand was for call centers

619
00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:29,400
Speaker 2: and customer services workers up to thirty one. Eighteen percent

620
00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:32,200
Speaker 2: increase on consultants, but we got rid of those. I

621
00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:33,800
Speaker 2: thought there was a I thought we're clamping down on

622
00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:35,760
Speaker 2: the consultants. So all of a sudden eighteen percent increase.

623
00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:38,760
Speaker 2: What's going on there? Eighteen percent each for education in retail,

624
00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:44,320
Speaker 2: science and tech, human resources, recruitment, farming double digit growth.

625
00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:46,920
Speaker 2: So there are jobs out there, no question about it.

626
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:49,560
Speaker 13: Well, what's the opposite of growth if you can't have

627
00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:52,960
Speaker 13: negative growth, shrinkage? Right, yeah, So I thought that was

628
00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:54,160
Speaker 13: just people's nicking stuff.

629
00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:57,280
Speaker 2: Shrinkage has increased, is what you should say. So we're

630
00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:59,800
Speaker 2: going to talk about this business of power, Simon. What

631
00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:01,800
Speaker 2: is with us after seven thirty gave it the what

632
00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:04,160
Speaker 2: for to the gen Taylor's does this make any difference?

633
00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:05,680
Speaker 2: We're going to talk to a person in the business

634
00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:09,480
Speaker 2: of retailing power. Is this a material change to the

635
00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:11,920
Speaker 2: power game? Will you notice the difference?

636
00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:12,360
Speaker 9: More?

637
00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:17,800
Speaker 3: Shortly news, opinion and everything in between?

638
00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:22,440
Speaker 1: The mic hosting break Best with Vida, Retirement Communities, Life

639
00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:24,120
Speaker 1: Your Way News togs Head.

640
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:26,239
Speaker 2: B seven So a finger wagg or is it more

641
00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:28,120
Speaker 2: than that? For the gent tailors in our power sector?

642
00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:30,840
Speaker 2: The big four Meridian, Contact, Mercury and Genesis told to

643
00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:33,440
Speaker 2: play by the new anti discrimination rules and simple terms.

644
00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:35,160
Speaker 2: You can't cut a better deal with your own retail

645
00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:37,400
Speaker 2: outlet than you do with anybody else. Electric Key we

646
00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:41,160
Speaker 2: CEO who eberts with us morning, Good morning mate.

647
00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:41,720
Speaker 6: You like it?

648
00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:46,240
Speaker 17: Yeah, it's fair to say that. Yeah, this is what

649
00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:49,000
Speaker 17: we've been fighting for. A livel playing field will mean

650
00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:53,640
Speaker 17: sharper pricing. It will mean that investment will happen and

651
00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:57,320
Speaker 17: we should see more affordable energy for all New Zealanders,

652
00:30:57,400 --> 00:30:59,040
Speaker 17: which is just absolutely brilliant.

653
00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:01,400
Speaker 2: Do you think they'll play all or fight it or

654
00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:01,880
Speaker 2: fudge it?

655
00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:07,440
Speaker 17: Well, you know, I think that there will be some

656
00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:10,680
Speaker 17: pushback would be crazy to think not. But you know,

657
00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:14,160
Speaker 17: I think all the gentellists think about the long term

658
00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:17,800
Speaker 17: benefits to New Zealand of greater competition. This is it

659
00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:20,840
Speaker 17: just about the short term or protecting their patch. This

660
00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:25,680
Speaker 17: is about really getting our economy going and delivering affordable

661
00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:27,280
Speaker 17: energy to all New Zealanders.

662
00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:30,800
Speaker 2: As a gent Taylor argument, you know, forget what wats

663
00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:32,640
Speaker 2: have said for now should they be split.

664
00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:39,760
Speaker 17: You know, we're really happy that the energy regulators are

665
00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:45,320
Speaker 17: going down this pathway. But if these rules, even if

666
00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:48,560
Speaker 17: they're in force, if they don't deliver those competition outcomes

667
00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:51,840
Speaker 17: for New Zealand, then absolutely we should keep going down

668
00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:55,400
Speaker 17: that pathway through the options that they're presented all the

669
00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:56,480
Speaker 17: way through the separation.

670
00:31:56,760 --> 00:31:58,640
Speaker 2: Okay, a lot of people texting me on the idea

671
00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:00,360
Speaker 2: that all they do is bump up the fal to

672
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:02,440
Speaker 2: their retail arm. In other words, they fudge it and

673
00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:05,440
Speaker 2: therefore there are offering you what their retail arms offer it.

674
00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:07,000
Speaker 2: But it's not as trimmed as it could be.

675
00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:13,880
Speaker 17: No, there's really strong evidence that the bird gent tailor's

676
00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:19,400
Speaker 17: retail arms are being cross subsidized by extremely high profits

677
00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:24,440
Speaker 17: and generation, and those extremely high profits and generation because

678
00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:26,640
Speaker 17: supply has been kept on a knife edge.

679
00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:27,480
Speaker 1: For so long.

680
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:32,960
Speaker 17: So yeah, we we believe that would these new regulations,

681
00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:39,440
Speaker 17: that having equal access to those deals will create really

682
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:42,000
Speaker 17: great competition and bear outcomes the New Zealanders.

683
00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:43,400
Speaker 2: I'm not going to hold you to it, but so

684
00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:45,640
Speaker 2: much power bills four hundred dollars a month and you

685
00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:47,240
Speaker 2: get a new deal, what could you do it for

686
00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:51,320
Speaker 2: three ninety nine, three twenty two fifty? What's the difference?

687
00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:55,680
Speaker 17: Hey, well, yeah, I can't. I couldn't tell you that

688
00:32:56,320 --> 00:33:00,920
Speaker 17: right now, but I do know that. Yeah, the pricing

689
00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:06,160
Speaker 17: that we see versus what the internals are getting as

690
00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:10,560
Speaker 17: significantly higher. So we should be able to offer better deals.

691
00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:12,560
Speaker 2: Fantastic sooner the bit. It nice to talk to you.

692
00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:15,120
Speaker 2: Who are about? Who's the electric key? We CEO? We'll

693
00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:18,040
Speaker 2: talk to simon. What's up to seventh thy, the energy menace,

694
00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:21,200
Speaker 2: the ten minutes past sevenscar other stuff that's unfolding in

695
00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:23,120
Speaker 2: front of our eyes. The old four year term debate

696
00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:24,880
Speaker 2: is back. The government is part of the coalition deals

697
00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:27,440
Speaker 2: introducing legislation. So if that's past, we'll then go to

698
00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:30,280
Speaker 2: a binding referendum, which we haven't had before in this country.

699
00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:32,400
Speaker 2: So what chance it passes, and if it does, what

700
00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:34,800
Speaker 2: would it mean for local government? Local government? New Zeeland

701
00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:37,120
Speaker 2: presidents in broughtin's with a Sam very good morning to

702
00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:40,160
Speaker 2: you right now. I know you guys want four years.

703
00:33:40,520 --> 00:33:42,160
Speaker 2: Does it have to dubtail though? I mean, does it?

704
00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:45,200
Speaker 2: Can't we do an Australian you know, like federal and state.

705
00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:48,520
Speaker 10: It makes sense to do it together. I think the

706
00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:50,800
Speaker 10: three year term that we've got at the moment means

707
00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:53,360
Speaker 10: we've got a year of disruption as we get into

708
00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:55,640
Speaker 10: an election, we have a year of settling after an election,

709
00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:57,920
Speaker 10: and then we have one good year of doing work.

710
00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:00,280
Speaker 10: So I think we'd probably double the productivity of both

711
00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:02,480
Speaker 10: central and local government with a four year term for both.

712
00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:05,400
Speaker 2: We have voted on this before and we've rejected it.

713
00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:07,640
Speaker 2: Is there anything to indicate that if we did vote

714
00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:08,840
Speaker 2: again it would be any different?

715
00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:12,279
Speaker 10: Yeah, We've done some research which showed actually there was

716
00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:14,719
Speaker 10: good support for local government to transition to a four

717
00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:18,200
Speaker 10: year term, and even more supportive of the government itself

718
00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:19,920
Speaker 10: moved to a four year term as well. So I

719
00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:22,319
Speaker 10: think mature from the views that we might have had

720
00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:24,759
Speaker 10: twenty or thirty years ago. And yeah, look forward to

721
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:27,160
Speaker 10: having a referendum, having the discussion, and if we move

722
00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:28,960
Speaker 10: for central government, we do need to move for local

723
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:29,520
Speaker 10: government too.

724
00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:30,160
Speaker 14: You can't.

725
00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:32,279
Speaker 2: You can't argue with democracy if we vote, and we vote.

726
00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:34,440
Speaker 2: But having said that, see I mean the ultimate argument

727
00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:37,880
Speaker 2: though is look to the Wellington City Council. They're incompetent.

728
00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:39,680
Speaker 2: Would you want four years of them? Look to a

729
00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:42,120
Speaker 2: really good council, you would want four years of them?

730
00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:43,520
Speaker 2: So how do you square that circle?

731
00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:46,239
Speaker 10: I think part of that's making sure we've got the

732
00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:48,640
Speaker 10: best people in our community stand in for council and

733
00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:50,560
Speaker 10: we get more people engaged in voting. If you know

734
00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:52,120
Speaker 10: that it's going to be there for four years, then

735
00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:53,839
Speaker 10: we need to see a greater voter turnout and people

736
00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:56,240
Speaker 10: taking local government elections a bit more seriously.

737
00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:57,120
Speaker 9: I think you're right.

738
00:34:57,200 --> 00:34:59,760
Speaker 10: We do want to see people and a good government

739
00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:03,800
Speaker 10: and for four years or more. And that's you know,

740
00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:06,640
Speaker 10: you're want a best case scenario, not just always beg

741
00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:09,080
Speaker 10: yourself to get it wrong and then we set ourselves

742
00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:09,960
Speaker 10: up to fail all the time.

743
00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:11,440
Speaker 2: A couple of things, while I got you, do you

744
00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:14,040
Speaker 2: know the Arab part of Reuben's story out of Ashburton?

745
00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:15,120
Speaker 7: No?

746
00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:18,000
Speaker 2: I don't know, right, so he's on the Fane dash

747
00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:21,120
Speaker 2: Burton District Council Water Committee. He doesn't turn up to

748
00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:23,640
Speaker 2: any of the meetings and he still gets paid money

749
00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:25,320
Speaker 2: and nobody's going to do anything about it.

750
00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:29,719
Speaker 10: What's that about the Canterbury water management strategy. I think

751
00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:32,640
Speaker 10: that's what you're talking about here. We hit the zone

752
00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:36,879
Speaker 10: committees ay, and they're in a review state at the moment,

753
00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:40,759
Speaker 10: So the local councils and Eken are working through what

754
00:35:40,840 --> 00:35:42,879
Speaker 10: the future of his zone committee should be. Some love

755
00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:44,359
Speaker 10: the way that things are at the moment, and others

756
00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:44,960
Speaker 10: are look into.

757
00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:48,239
Speaker 2: That's the reason they're giving for paying this guy eight

758
00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:51,120
Speaker 2: thousand dollars for not doing anything. Is paying people eight

759
00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:53,960
Speaker 2: thousand dollars not to do anything acceptable to local government

760
00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:54,440
Speaker 2: New Zealand.

761
00:35:55,960 --> 00:35:57,000
Speaker 14: I don't know the situation.

762
00:35:58,520 --> 00:36:01,000
Speaker 2: I've just told take it to you. He doesn't turn

763
00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:02,560
Speaker 2: up and he gets paid not to turn up.

764
00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:05,359
Speaker 10: I think we expect to pay people to do a job.

765
00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:08,840
Speaker 2: So yeah, And the other one we've got this morning

766
00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:11,280
Speaker 2: is Horror Fanua. Do you know about the Horror Fanua

767
00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:12,760
Speaker 2: situation with the bloke in Scotland?

768
00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:14,560
Speaker 14: No, I don't say.

769
00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:17,040
Speaker 2: Okay, So he's a local councilor. He's been elected and

770
00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:20,000
Speaker 2: he's he's not turning up anymore because he's moved to Scotland.

771
00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:22,120
Speaker 2: But he argues he can be a good local councilor

772
00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:25,719
Speaker 2: and Horror Fanua from Scotland, do you reckon that's acceptable?

773
00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:29,080
Speaker 10: I think we need some greater accountability of done what

774
00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:31,560
Speaker 10: we expect from our elected members. And as pleased to

775
00:36:31,560 --> 00:36:33,760
Speaker 10: hear the government talk about a code of conduct review.

776
00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:37,640
Speaker 10: That's part of it. But yeah, I think we were

777
00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:40,160
Speaker 10: elicted to local government. You expected to turn up and

778
00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:43,120
Speaker 10: here you say, and be a part of a democracy.

779
00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:44,600
Speaker 2: Glad to hear it. Sam, you have a good week

780
00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:47,080
Speaker 2: in Sam Broughton, who's the local government president. It is

781
00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:50,080
Speaker 2: thirteen minutes past seven past getting guff as whips Starmer.

782
00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:52,239
Speaker 2: First thing he's done with Trump? Guess what he's done

783
00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:53,920
Speaker 2: with something he's linked this from the Japanese guy the

784
00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:57,319
Speaker 2: other day. Macron's not popular because he's thick. So first

785
00:36:57,360 --> 00:36:59,239
Speaker 2: thing Starmer does is he goes, hey, would you like

786
00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:01,800
Speaker 2: a state visit? Come and meet the king, and he

787
00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:03,560
Speaker 2: goes I've already had to state visiting. Goes Now I

788
00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:05,200
Speaker 2: have a second one, come and meet the king because

789
00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:06,680
Speaker 2: you met the queen. Last time we've got a king.

790
00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:07,920
Speaker 2: Do you want to come and meet the king? You

791
00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:10,799
Speaker 2: start bucking in palace and goes oooh. You think they're

792
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:14,040
Speaker 2: getting on well already, fourteen past the.

Speaker 1: News Talks.

795
00:37:19,120 --> 00:37:22,000
Speaker 2: It'd be governments get booted after three years while good

796
00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:24,200
Speaker 2: government gets six to nine years. Why change the risk,

797
00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:25,799
Speaker 2: take the risk. It's not a bad point. I think

798
00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:28,439
Speaker 2: I'd probably favor that to be fair. Sixteen minutes past seven,

799
00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:31,360
Speaker 2: quick rep at the Luxe and sojourn into Vietnam. Deals

800

Speaker 2: as whether it's Jason Morning, good morning, make the tangibles.

802
00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:38,200
Speaker 2: What have we got out of it?

803
00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:41,000
Speaker 18: Well, you'd have to look at this and say the

804
00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:42,880
Speaker 18: biggest thing, and I know you're going to laugh and

805
00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:46,920
Speaker 18: it sounds pathetic, but it's a comprehensive strategic partnership with

806
00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:49,520
Speaker 18: the Vietnamese government. Now it does sound like something that

807
00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:53,359
Speaker 18: Jacinda Ardern has thrown together. You just slap comprehensive at

808
00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:55,560
Speaker 18: the beginning of it, and hey, prestoh, you've got yourself

809
00:37:55,600 --> 00:37:58,920
Speaker 18: a press release. But this one is actually quite significant.

810
00:37:59,080 --> 00:38:03,960
Speaker 18: Vietnam's structure in terms of its government is very inextricably

811
00:38:04,040 --> 00:38:06,279
Speaker 18: linked with its business side of things, so to get

812
00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:08,880
Speaker 18: anything done on the business side, you actually have to

813
00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:11,000
Speaker 18: get things done on the political side. So this puts

814
00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:14,600
Speaker 18: us within There's only ten other countries that have this

815
00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:17,959
Speaker 18: specific agreement, and I've been talking to a few people

816
00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:20,359
Speaker 18: in the business delegation here and they actually are saying

817
00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:23,359
Speaker 18: it is going to help drive business and help get

818
00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:27,080
Speaker 18: Kiwi businesses into the market, into the Vietnamese market. Apart

819
00:38:27,160 --> 00:38:30,000
Speaker 18: from that, you know, it was raining MOUs yesterday and

820
00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:32,600
Speaker 18: the day before as well. So there are quite a

821
00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:34,480
Speaker 18: few of those in terms of you know, aut and

822
00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:38,680
Speaker 18: Vietnam University collaborating on computer science and AI and a

823
00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:40,400
Speaker 18: few other ones like that, but I would say that

824
00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:43,080
Speaker 18: comprehensive strategic agreement is the biggest one.

825
00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:45,399
Speaker 2: Fantastic. A lot of people have been texting me sort

826
00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:48,120
Speaker 2: of laughing at Vietnam, and I think that's unfair because

827
00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:51,160
Speaker 2: Vietnam is a major growth economy and they've done some

828
00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:53,680
Speaker 2: Is that obvious when you wander around the place.

829
00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:54,719
Speaker 6: Oh?

830
00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:57,600
Speaker 18: Absolutely. I mean I've been to Vietnam with Ardern. I'm

831
00:38:57,640 --> 00:39:00,520
Speaker 18: now here with Christopher Luxon. It's only been two years

832
00:39:00,560 --> 00:39:02,680
Speaker 18: and you can actually see the growth. I mean, whether

833
00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:05,279
Speaker 18: it's in Hanoi or ho Human City, every time you

834
00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:08,680
Speaker 18: come here, there is just a palpable sense of growth.

835
00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:11,240
Speaker 18: I mean they've been growing at at least five percent

836
00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:13,319
Speaker 18: year on year for the last what was it ten

837
00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:18,280
Speaker 18: fifteen years? They've got one hundred million people here. Because

838
00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:22,560
Speaker 18: of this sort of communist capitalist structure, there is opportunity

839
00:39:22,600 --> 00:39:24,880
Speaker 18: for growth. And listen, they like Kiwi products. They love

840
00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:27,600
Speaker 18: the Kiwi fruit, they love the New Zealand beef and lamb.

841
00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:29,480
Speaker 18: So if we can get more of that into the market,

842
00:39:30,320 --> 00:39:32,520
Speaker 18: it's a win win, and I think it's absolutely something

843
00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:34,040
Speaker 18: that governments should be targeting.

844
00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:35,960
Speaker 2: Right now, I got a pop quiz for you, Jason.

845
00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:36,919
Speaker 2: You're ready for a pop quiz?

846
00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:40,279
Speaker 18: Oh it's one in the morning over here, mate, Not really,

847
00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:40,920
Speaker 18: but let's try it.

848
00:39:40,920 --> 00:39:43,680
Speaker 2: Any So, I'm going through the MP's expenses at the moment,

849
00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:45,440
Speaker 2: and I've found one. I'm not going to name names

850
00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:47,640
Speaker 2: at this early stage, but I found a magnum of wine.

851
00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:50,360
Speaker 2: But now answer me this question. Can you, as an

852
00:39:50,520 --> 00:39:54,960
Speaker 2: MP legitimately claim laundry on the taxpayer.

853
00:39:55,840 --> 00:39:59,040
Speaker 18: If it costs over five hundred dollars, and I think

854
00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:01,480
Speaker 18: you can. That's if it puts it into the expenses.

855
00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:04,399
Speaker 18: I mean, if you're overseas and you've got a suit

856
00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:06,440
Speaker 18: that you need to clean for the next day, you

857
00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:08,160
Speaker 18: can put that on your credit card. I would say,

858
00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:10,000
Speaker 18: you've got it to declare it. It's got to be

859
00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:10,880
Speaker 18: over five hundred.

860
00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:12,320
Speaker 2: Dollars because I've gotta I've got to. I've got a

861
00:40:12,360 --> 00:40:14,920
Speaker 2: cabinet minister who's running hundreds and hundreds of dollars of

862
00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:17,360
Speaker 2: laundry through So I'm just trying to work out this

863
00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:19,920
Speaker 2: is not a look, I'm just having a fun Friday thing,

864
00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:23,040
Speaker 2: but it seems like he's like he's doing a tremendous

865
00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:23,960
Speaker 2: amount of laundry.

866
00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:26,840
Speaker 18: If it is, if it's a trade minister or a

867
00:40:26,920 --> 00:40:29,719
Speaker 18: foreign minister, I would say maybe if they're overseas they

868
00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:30,960
Speaker 18: need it's not.

869
00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:35,280
Speaker 2: It's a domestic minister and he's in charge of portfolios,

870
00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:40,000
Speaker 2: he's in charge of Give me a clue, so listen

Speaker 6: Housing?

Speaker 2: Bishop Bishop?

878

Speaker 18: Oh, he's Wellington based as well, so he has a

879
00:40:57,440 --> 00:40:58,160
Speaker 18: he's close enough.

880
00:40:58,239 --> 00:40:59,920
Speaker 2: Interesting, Well, we'll look up, we'll look into that.

881

884
00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:08,759
Speaker 2: pre record earlier, and I said, to make it easy

885
00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:11,000
Speaker 2: on you. I said, bugger that he's there on our dime.

886
00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:13,000
Speaker 2: He stays up and he turns up, and well done

887

Speaker 2: for doing that. So I appreciate that very much.

888
00:41:15,640 --> 00:41:17,360

00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:17,880
Speaker 18: you're welcome.

890

Speaker 1: by News Talk Seppy.

893
00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:36,879
Speaker 2: No, it just Glenn makes a very good point. They've

894
00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:39,200
Speaker 2: had the yellow chairs this is the White House, but

895
00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:43,080
Speaker 2: they're not or haven't televised. Maybe the live bits later

896
00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:45,120
Speaker 2: on we'll we'll find out. But he hasn't been in

897
00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:47,000
Speaker 2: there along though, as my thinking, he's probably getting the

898
00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:48,520
Speaker 2: tour and all that sort of stuff. You see Trump

899
00:41:48,520 --> 00:41:49,719
Speaker 2: turn up the other day there was a tour of

900
00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:52,359
Speaker 2: the White House, which I'm very lucky enough to have done,

901
00:41:53,400 --> 00:41:55,200
Speaker 2: and he turned up. There's a corridor. It's a very

902
00:41:55,280 --> 00:41:56,719
Speaker 2: unusual place to the White House. There's a lot of

903
00:41:56,840 --> 00:41:59,800
Speaker 2: sort of tunnels and corridors. Anyway, there was one of

904
00:41:59,840 --> 00:42:01,640
Speaker 2: those tours on and then all of a sudden, from

905
00:42:01,680 --> 00:42:03,680
Speaker 2: behind the screen turned up Trump and they just started

906
00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:07,560
Speaker 2: chanting Trump, Trump, USA, USA, And he said Mulaney has

907
00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:10,640
Speaker 2: spent a lot of time lately organizing that the tour

908
00:42:10,760 --> 00:42:12,000
Speaker 2: is just a perfect tour.

909
00:42:12,800 --> 00:42:14,520
Speaker 13: And I thought, I thought she went home and then

910
00:42:14,719 --> 00:42:16,040
Speaker 13: only just came back the other day.

911
00:42:16,880 --> 00:42:19,799
Speaker 2: Doesn't mean that what he said was true, Glenn. It's

912
00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:23,080
Speaker 2: I keep forgetting that because he then went on to

913
00:42:23,160 --> 00:42:25,120
Speaker 2: say he looked at the guys doing the tree, said

914
00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:27,520
Speaker 2: you give them a special tour. Now the tour won't

915
00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:29,040
Speaker 2: have been any different, but they'll think they're on a

916
00:42:29,080 --> 00:42:29,600
Speaker 2: special tour.

917
00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:30,880
Speaker 13: Is it smaller than it appears?

918
00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:33,440
Speaker 2: Very much? So, Like it's like so much smaller than

919
00:42:33,520 --> 00:42:35,400
Speaker 2: an appear as you think, how do they get around him?

920
00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:37,200
Speaker 2: I've been in I've been in the yellow room, in

921
00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:39,400
Speaker 2: the green room and stuff, and it's barely bigger than

922
00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:41,279
Speaker 2: a lounge. You think you would have thought they would

923
00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:43,960
Speaker 2: have built maybe some extensions, but they haven't gone there.

924
00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:45,960
Speaker 2: Turned out to mark the week a little piece of

928
00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:54,759
Speaker 2: the downside of that? What is the downside of that?

929
00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:57,560
Speaker 2: For goodness sake? Andrew Bailey three hypothetical he did resign.

930
00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:01,000
Speaker 2: It's a sad business. Is it a sackable offense?

931
00:43:01,080 --> 00:43:01,120
Speaker 9: No?

932
00:43:01,480 --> 00:43:03,719
Speaker 2: Does it put people off entering politics? I would have

933
00:43:03,719 --> 00:43:06,040
Speaker 2: thought so. But when you call somebody a loser and

934
00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:08,440
Speaker 2: grab an arm, can you survive that? Well, that's the

935
00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:10,560
Speaker 2: reoffense that was suckable, I think, wasn't it. Law and

936
00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:13,440
Speaker 2: Order eight are the violent crime stats and the new

937
00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:17,000
Speaker 2: detainment powers are tangible evidence of progress in the right direction.

938

Speaker 2: and the Rebuild two? I mean, that's what's wrong with

941
00:43:28,520 --> 00:43:31,759
Speaker 2: coalition deals, isn't it. They indulge in folly TMU three.

942
00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:36,560
Speaker 2: We're were spending more there and less domestically. Never underestimate

943
00:43:36,960 --> 00:43:42,239
Speaker 2: the power of cheap crap. Torri Farnour one. Canceling her

944
00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:44,719
Speaker 2: ZB slot is the beginning of the end. Canceling ZB

945
00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:47,160
Speaker 2: slots doesn't tend to go well for voting patterns. I

946
00:43:47,200 --> 00:43:51,120
Speaker 2: speak from experience. Are the Warriors seven yeh unbeaten in

00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:13,680
Speaker 2: real world BP seven cutting investment in green stuff and

952
00:44:13,719 --> 00:44:16,800

Speaker 6: Stop.

962
00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:44,200
Speaker 2: I can't take all this good news. That's the week

963
00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:46,040
Speaker 2: copies on the website and seventy six percent of the

964
00:44:46,080 --> 00:44:48,360

Speaker 2: Bishop and the here's the other thing about Bishop, so

968
00:44:56,880 --> 00:44:59,359
Speaker 2: that this is the published stuff on what they're spending

969
00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:02,640
Speaker 2: their money on elone croissant. And he likes the shwept soda.

970
00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:04,600
Speaker 2: Now I can't work out whether it's soda as an

971
00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:07,880
Speaker 2: American soda, soda as an any old sugary drink, or

972
00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:10,879
Speaker 2: whether it's soda water. I've got him as dry ginger

973
00:45:10,960 --> 00:45:13,560
Speaker 2: Ail personally. But he likes the crossants and he likes

974
00:45:13,600 --> 00:45:16,280
Speaker 2: the drive ginger Ail. And he's doing a tremendous amount

975
00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:21,880
Speaker 2: of laundry. Couple of bills from Europe over one hundred euros,

976
00:45:22,239 --> 00:45:24,640
Speaker 2: but some tremendous. It's almost like he's got a family

977
00:45:24,680 --> 00:45:27,520
Speaker 2: of eighteen that he's doing the laundry for. And let

978
00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:29,600
Speaker 2: me tell you who bought the magnum of what? And

979
00:45:29,680 --> 00:45:32,400
Speaker 2: this is the other thing. Do I congratulate them for

980
00:45:32,520 --> 00:45:34,560
Speaker 2: their taste on the wine they bought because it's very

981
00:45:34,600 --> 00:45:37,800
Speaker 2: good wine? Or do I scold them for going what

982
00:45:38,239 --> 00:45:40,840
Speaker 2: two hundred and fifteen dollars for a bottle of wine?

983
00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:42,840
Speaker 2: Who is this details?

984
00:45:42,880 --> 00:45:46,880
Speaker 3: Shortly that's The New Zealand's home for trusted news and views.

985
00:45:47,320 --> 00:45:50,319
Speaker 1: The Mike Hosking breakfand with the range rover be La

986
00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:53,399
Speaker 1: designed to intrigue and use Tom's dead bees.

987
00:45:53,480 --> 00:45:56,520
Speaker 2: I reckon Rod's right, I reckon Starmer on the international

988
00:45:56,640 --> 00:46:00,239
Speaker 2: stage is little short of a genius and looking at

989
00:46:00,280 --> 00:46:05,680
Speaker 2: the yellow chairs, and he is one conducting the conversation

990
00:46:05,920 --> 00:46:09,960
Speaker 2: and leading it two rubbing Trump as he says so

991
00:46:10,239 --> 00:46:12,759
Speaker 2: in a way that he's basically saying, Trumpy, Trumpy, I

992
00:46:12,840 --> 00:46:13,440
Speaker 2: love you, I love you.

993
00:46:13,719 --> 00:46:15,279
Speaker 13: Actually pulled the cheer around I.

994
00:46:15,280 --> 00:46:18,560
Speaker 2: Think he's pulled the cheer around Trump's foot. Looking him visually,

995
00:46:18,640 --> 00:46:20,600
Speaker 2: he's full. Look, he's a hand on shouldering and how

996
00:46:20,640 --> 00:46:21,640
Speaker 2: many times have you touched the guy?

997
00:46:21,760 --> 00:46:23,920
Speaker 13: And also because they're not face to face, like they know,

998
00:46:24,640 --> 00:46:27,000
Speaker 13: he's pulled side base and now look at him.

999
00:46:27,040 --> 00:46:30,239
Speaker 2: So Starmer's leaning back, he's got his leagues crossed, he's

1000
00:46:30,400 --> 00:46:33,160
Speaker 2: chuckling away. Donald's having the time. But anyway, he's done.

1001
00:46:33,320 --> 00:46:37,279
Speaker 19: The United Kingdom is a is a wonderful This is

1002
00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:40,399
Speaker 19: a wonderful country that I know very well. I'm there

1003
00:46:40,440 --> 00:46:44,359
Speaker 19: a lot, and I'll be going. I'll be going there,

1004
00:46:44,440 --> 00:46:47,240
Speaker 19: and we expect to see each other in their future.

1005
00:46:47,280 --> 00:46:51,080
Speaker 19: We'll be announcing it. But we're going to be discussing

1006
00:46:51,160 --> 00:46:54,320
Speaker 19: many things today. We'll be discussing Rushia, Ukraine, we'll be

1007
00:46:54,440 --> 00:46:57,279
Speaker 19: discussing trade and lots.

1008
00:46:57,040 --> 00:46:58,240
Speaker 3: Of other items.

1009
00:46:58,520 --> 00:47:00,480
Speaker 19: And I think we can say that we're going to

1010
00:47:00,480 --> 00:47:02,319
Speaker 19: be getting along on every one of them. We've had

1011
00:47:02,320 --> 00:47:04,200
Speaker 19: a tremendous relationship.

1012
00:47:04,560 --> 00:47:05,759
Speaker 2: There you go, and he is done.

1013
00:47:05,880 --> 00:47:09,080
Speaker 20: Honess shoes like hukraying. Thank you for changing the conversation

1014
00:47:09,239 --> 00:47:11,840
Speaker 20: to bring about the possibility that now we can have

1015
00:47:11,920 --> 00:47:14,640
Speaker 20: a peace deal. And we want to work with you

1016
00:47:14,760 --> 00:47:17,920
Speaker 20: to make sure that peace deal is enduring, that it lasts,

1017
00:47:18,000 --> 00:47:20,480
Speaker 20: that it's a deal that goes down as a historic

1018
00:47:20,640 --> 00:47:22,520
Speaker 20: deal that nobody breaches.

1019
00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:23,279
Speaker 3: And we'll work with you.

1020
00:47:24,120 --> 00:47:27,799
Speaker 2: There you go, so far, so good, and of course

1021
00:47:27,880 --> 00:47:29,959
Speaker 2: Jolynks keep coming tomorrow right bring it back here twenty

1022
00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:32,120
Speaker 2: two minutes away from Timmy Keddy after it. Of course,

1023
00:47:32,680 --> 00:47:35,760
Speaker 2: the power business heading to another winter a place increases

1024
00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:38,400
Speaker 2: in coal impilortation. Mike Ran from Marillion yesterday talk to

1025
00:47:38,440 --> 00:47:40,880
Speaker 2: a lack of excess to the contingent storage. Meantime, the

1026
00:47:40,920 --> 00:47:43,000
Speaker 2: government gave the hard word, as you're aware of the

1027
00:47:43,080 --> 00:47:45,200
Speaker 2: gin tailors to tidy up there deals with the retail

1028
00:47:45,320 --> 00:47:48,239
Speaker 2: arms and not stack the market anyway, Energy Minister Simon

1029
00:47:48,280 --> 00:47:48,920
Speaker 2: Watson's with us.

1030
00:47:48,960 --> 00:47:50,440
Speaker 21: Good morning, very good morning, Mike.

1031
00:47:50,520 --> 00:47:53,440
Speaker 2: Greg Corey broad question, how worried about winter are you?

1032
00:47:54,200 --> 00:47:57,239
Speaker 21: I am worried, Mike. Situation is pretty acute. I think

1033
00:47:57,280 --> 00:47:59,439
Speaker 21: most people know it's pretty dry out here at the moment.

1034
00:48:00,239 --> 00:48:02,040
Speaker 21: Levels are lower than what they were at this time

1035
00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:06,439
Speaker 21: last year. We still haven't got gas supply. That means

1036
00:48:06,480 --> 00:48:08,640
Speaker 21: that it's going to be a tight winter and that's

1037
00:48:08,680 --> 00:48:11,160
Speaker 21: why as minister, and you know, three weeks into the job,

1038
00:48:11,239 --> 00:48:13,399
Speaker 21: I'm doing everything we can to make sure that we've

1039
00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:16,600
Speaker 21: got secure and affordable energy. But it's pretty tough, is.

1040
00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:19,239
Speaker 2: What you said yesterday to the gen tailor is going

1041
00:48:19,320 --> 00:48:22,200
Speaker 2: to make one jot of difference If we can't supply

1042
00:48:22,320 --> 00:48:24,080
Speaker 2: and meet demand, well, it is.

1043
00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:26,320
Speaker 21: Going to make a difference in the medium term. The

1044
00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:29,920
Speaker 21: challenges is for this winter, and you know that's what

1045
00:48:30,200 --> 00:48:33,240
Speaker 21: you know, a key element of focus in other areas

1046
00:48:33,360 --> 00:48:35,680
Speaker 21: is But what we're doing yesterday, it's a strong signal

1047
00:48:35,719 --> 00:48:38,160
Speaker 21: to the market. We want to see more competition. We

1048
00:48:38,200 --> 00:48:40,360
Speaker 21: want to make sure that you know they're playing on

1049
00:48:40,440 --> 00:48:44,279
Speaker 21: a level playing field, sticky with independent retailers, that they're

1050
00:48:44,360 --> 00:48:49,640
Speaker 21: not discriminating against other players, and you know the Regulator

1051
00:48:49,719 --> 00:48:52,320
Speaker 21: is going to be consulting on those changes in the

1052
00:48:52,400 --> 00:48:54,960
Speaker 21: next eight weeks and bottom line, you know, we need

1053
00:48:55,040 --> 00:48:57,120
Speaker 21: to be doing everything we can do to keep the

1054
00:48:57,239 --> 00:48:59,160
Speaker 21: lights on this winter and for winters ahead.

1055
00:48:59,360 --> 00:49:01,960
Speaker 2: Did you say what you said yesterday because you needed

1056
00:49:02,040 --> 00:49:04,719
Speaker 2: to say it or just fill some headlines? In other words,

1057
00:49:04,760 --> 00:49:06,880
Speaker 2: are they scurlous and are now going to have to

1058
00:49:06,920 --> 00:49:09,400
Speaker 2: tidy their act up? Or were they decent players? Anyway?

1059
00:49:10,400 --> 00:49:14,200
Speaker 21: Now look like the circumstances are changed. You know, we

1060
00:49:14,320 --> 00:49:16,560
Speaker 21: seem to I think talk about this. We seem to

1061
00:49:16,600 --> 00:49:18,960
Speaker 21: have talked about this every winter. We need some action

1062
00:49:19,239 --> 00:49:22,440
Speaker 21: and we need to see everyone playing their part. We

1063
00:49:22,600 --> 00:49:26,600
Speaker 21: need more generation investment. Gen Taylor's play a key role

1064
00:49:26,680 --> 00:49:29,279
Speaker 21: on that. But we also need a competitive market. And

1065
00:49:29,719 --> 00:49:32,680
Speaker 21: you know, I've had concerns alongside Minister Jones that we

1066
00:49:32,800 --> 00:49:36,520
Speaker 21: don't have assessings right, and the Regulator have come in

1067
00:49:36,600 --> 00:49:39,719
Speaker 21: and said things need to change, and we're up for

1068
00:49:39,800 --> 00:49:41,080
Speaker 21: that challenge, and I think that's a good thing.

1069
00:49:41,320 --> 00:49:44,160
Speaker 2: We have the Meridian bloke on yesterday who said one

1070
00:49:44,200 --> 00:49:47,640
Speaker 2: of several things he needs greater access to the contingent supply.

1071
00:49:48,280 --> 00:49:50,320
Speaker 2: Now you're going to tell me, that's not in your domain.

1072
00:49:50,360 --> 00:49:52,279
Speaker 2: It really should be, shouldn't it. Why can't he get

1073
00:49:52,320 --> 00:49:56,000
Speaker 2: access of We've got water and it's eight hundred dollars

1074
00:49:56,040 --> 00:49:58,000
Speaker 2: at the spot price. Why can't we get access to

1075
00:49:58,040 --> 00:49:58,319
Speaker 2: the water?

1076
00:49:59,080 --> 00:50:01,319
Speaker 21: Yeah, and look, I meant with Meridian, probably three dal

1077
00:50:01,440 --> 00:50:04,120
Speaker 21: days into my role. The key issue is certainty around

1078
00:50:04,160 --> 00:50:07,759
Speaker 21: that contingent supply, and the uncertainty is actually priced into

1079
00:50:07,840 --> 00:50:10,560
Speaker 21: the market. I accept that the sector needs to know

1080
00:50:11,280 --> 00:50:13,920
Speaker 21: when and how much of that contingent supply that it

1081
00:50:14,000 --> 00:50:16,399
Speaker 21: can access, and I know that the regulator and I've

1082
00:50:16,400 --> 00:50:19,839
Speaker 21: asked the regulator to specifically look at this and get

1083
00:50:19,920 --> 00:50:22,600
Speaker 21: back to me. It's not within my powers as a minister,

1084
00:50:22,960 --> 00:50:25,160
Speaker 21: but I can tell you what in regards to the

1085
00:50:25,239 --> 00:50:28,560
Speaker 21: government doing everything it can, you know we're leaving no

1086
00:50:28,880 --> 00:50:32,000
Speaker 21: stone unturned and to secure energy this winter, that's going

1087
00:50:32,040 --> 00:50:34,919
Speaker 21: to include contingent hydro storage if needed.

1088
00:50:35,200 --> 00:50:37,520
Speaker 2: When you say the regulator, is that the EA or Transpower,

1089
00:50:37,920 --> 00:50:38,759
Speaker 2: Well it's actually.

1090
00:50:38,480 --> 00:50:41,800
Speaker 21: A combination of both. But yes, Transpower and the Electricity

1091
00:50:41,840 --> 00:50:44,400
Speaker 21: Authority play a role around that contingent storage.

1092
00:50:44,640 --> 00:50:48,120
Speaker 2: What is it the EA do, Because in watching the

1093
00:50:48,200 --> 00:50:51,359
Speaker 2: last winter at eight hundred dollars a pop, they seem

1094
00:50:51,400 --> 00:50:52,480
Speaker 2: to be sitting on their hands.

1095
00:50:53,400 --> 00:50:56,320
Speaker 21: Well, look, we've had I've had a number of conversations

1096
00:50:56,719 --> 00:50:59,479
Speaker 21: pretty straight up with all of the players in the market,

1097
00:50:59,520 --> 00:51:03,759
Speaker 21: including our regulators, and saying status quo is not acceptable.

1098
00:51:03,800 --> 00:51:06,600
Speaker 21: We need to see increased competition and you know, obviously

1099
00:51:06,640 --> 00:51:07,799
Speaker 21: the regulator plays a key.

1100
00:51:07,800 --> 00:51:08,160
Speaker 1: Role in that.

1101
00:51:08,360 --> 00:51:13,279
Speaker 21: So we're having a number of conversations at the moment

1102
00:51:13,400 --> 00:51:15,759
Speaker 21: to make sure that everyone is aligned up with what

1103
00:51:15,960 --> 00:51:16,279
Speaker 21: needs to have.

1104
00:51:16,400 --> 00:51:19,720
Speaker 2: But conversations don't turn the lights on. Are they pushing

1105
00:51:19,840 --> 00:51:22,160
Speaker 2: back against you? And will you need to do something

1106
00:51:22,200 --> 00:51:22,560
Speaker 2: about that?

1107
00:51:23,719 --> 00:51:25,719
Speaker 21: Look, I think what you saw yesterday in TIMS the

1108
00:51:25,719 --> 00:51:29,120
Speaker 21: announcement so the regulator was a strong signal that they

1109
00:51:29,200 --> 00:51:31,800
Speaker 21: have recognized clearly that we need to do more, and

1110
00:51:31,960 --> 00:51:34,480
Speaker 21: we need to do more in the competition front. That

1111
00:51:34,640 --> 00:51:38,000
Speaker 21: pressure is very high at the moment on everyone and

1112
00:51:38,239 --> 00:51:41,160
Speaker 21: you know, we're continuing to have those conversations. But the

1113
00:51:41,239 --> 00:51:42,839
Speaker 21: end of the day, you're right, we need to see

1114
00:51:42,880 --> 00:51:46,000
Speaker 21: action and we need to see some changes flowing through

1115
00:51:46,160 --> 00:51:47,760
Speaker 21: and as minister, that's my priority.

1116
00:51:47,880 --> 00:51:49,200
Speaker 2: Well, good luck with it. We're going to be on

1117
00:51:49,280 --> 00:51:51,680
Speaker 2: your case, Simon. What's the energy minister? It is eighteen

1118
00:51:51,719 --> 00:51:54,480
Speaker 2: minutes away from Mate. At this stage, I hope it

1119
00:51:54,560 --> 00:51:57,000
Speaker 2: works and I hope that's enough. But the stage has

1120
00:51:57,040 --> 00:51:59,640
Speaker 2: got the old Nikola Willis talk about the supermarkets and

1121
00:51:59,680 --> 00:52:01,959
Speaker 2: the bank a lot, but really do nothing about it. Vibe,

1122
00:52:02,000 --> 00:52:03,400
Speaker 2: speaking of the banks, have got something good on that

1123
00:52:03,480 --> 00:52:05,560
Speaker 2: for you. In a moment, Mike, will the government consider

1124
00:52:05,600 --> 00:52:07,719
Speaker 2: a subsidy for solar and homes? Why would they don it?

1125
00:52:07,840 --> 00:52:10,640
Speaker 2: The government can't pay for literally everything. Do you belong

1126
00:52:10,680 --> 00:52:12,760
Speaker 2: to the Principal's Federation or something? You want free lunches?

1127
00:52:12,880 --> 00:52:14,160
Speaker 2: Let me come back to that in the moment. Anyway,

1128
00:52:14,160 --> 00:52:15,680
Speaker 2: you can get an interest free loan from the bank

1129
00:52:15,719 --> 00:52:17,080
Speaker 2: if you want to go sol and Mike, I would

1130
00:52:17,120 --> 00:52:19,040
Speaker 2: have thought, apart from anything else, with the price of power,

1131
00:52:19,520 --> 00:52:21,719
Speaker 2: the temptation to go solar would never be greater, Mike.

1132
00:52:21,800 --> 00:52:24,840
Speaker 2: Earlier this summer, the South Island hydro lakes were spilling

1133
00:52:24,920 --> 00:52:27,160
Speaker 2: water because of lake levels were so high. Why are

1134
00:52:27,160 --> 00:52:31,200
Speaker 2: they now reporting lower levels than last year? Wolf? Think

1135
00:52:31,239 --> 00:52:36,520
Speaker 2: about it. It's called evaporation and usage. So you know,

1136
00:52:36,640 --> 00:52:38,840
Speaker 2: at the moment you've got a bucket, the bucket's overflowing,

1137
00:52:38,880 --> 00:52:40,880
Speaker 2: you've got to spill it. So once you've spilled it,

1138
00:52:40,920 --> 00:52:42,440
Speaker 2: you've still got the full bucket, then what are you

1139
00:52:42,520 --> 00:52:45,200
Speaker 2: doing with the full bucket? You're using it. That's called demand,

1140
00:52:45,719 --> 00:52:47,920
Speaker 2: and after a while you get evaporation. It doesn't rain

1141
00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:49,799
Speaker 2: to top up from the demand, then the lake level

1142
00:52:49,880 --> 00:52:50,279
Speaker 2: goes down.

1143
00:52:50,320 --> 00:52:52,640
Speaker 13: That's a good idea, though we should have got some

1144
00:52:52,680 --> 00:52:53,760
Speaker 13: people there with some buckets.

1145
00:52:53,800 --> 00:52:55,920
Speaker 2: Maybe maybe, maybe we're sure to buckets. Maybe that is

1146
00:52:55,920 --> 00:52:57,399
Speaker 2: the problem. Let me come back to the school lunches

1147
00:52:57,400 --> 00:52:59,400
Speaker 2: because I'm so sick of the sixteen away from it.

1148
00:53:00,640 --> 00:53:04,520
Speaker 1: The Vike Asking Breakfast, a full show podcast on iHeartRadio

1149
00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:05,760
Speaker 1: powered by the News.

1150
00:53:05,600 --> 00:53:08,640
Speaker 2: Talks at B where At is sitting away from it.

1151
00:53:08,880 --> 00:53:11,000
Speaker 2: It's question time on the yellow chairs.

1152
00:53:11,200 --> 00:53:13,600
Speaker 1: Do Prime Minister I have to choose a closer relationship

1153
00:53:13,640 --> 00:53:15,640
Speaker 1: with the EU it's here seeking and a good trade

1154
00:53:15,680 --> 00:53:16,400
Speaker 1: relationship with you.

1155
00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:17,200
Speaker 9: Which one you go?

1156
00:53:17,920 --> 00:53:20,080
Speaker 19: Well, I think we have just a great relationship. We

1157
00:53:20,160 --> 00:53:23,239
Speaker 19: actually had a good relationship before. We've met a couple

1158
00:53:23,320 --> 00:53:25,920
Speaker 19: of times, and I'm very impressed with him, and I'm

1159
00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:27,200
Speaker 19: very impressed with his wife.

1160
00:53:27,719 --> 00:53:32,879
Speaker 3: And I say, she's a beautiful, great woman. And I said,

1161
00:53:34,320 --> 00:53:36,800
Speaker 3: I said, you're very lucky. He's very lucky.

1162
00:53:37,000 --> 00:53:40,000
Speaker 19: And no, we've had a very good relationship.

1163
00:53:40,760 --> 00:53:44,600
Speaker 2: Goodness sake, do I go school lunches or do I

1164
00:53:44,680 --> 00:53:49,840
Speaker 2: go laundry and HDMI cable? So I'm going cables.

1165
00:53:50,280 --> 00:53:50,799
Speaker 6: So on the.

1166
00:53:50,800 --> 00:53:54,200
Speaker 2: Expenses, I've got to give it away. The wine primad

1167
00:53:54,239 --> 00:53:57,680
Speaker 2: On a wine, a magnum of pin and Wir from Pegasus.

1168
00:53:57,800 --> 00:54:00,360
Speaker 2: Very nice wine, very good wine. Nicola Grig bought that

1169
00:54:00,600 --> 00:54:03,160
Speaker 2: I'm assuming for a gift. Two hundred and fifteen dollars.

1170
00:54:03,440 --> 00:54:06,080
Speaker 2: This is from the MP's expenses. Interesting things. Mark Mitchell,

1171
00:54:06,160 --> 00:54:08,600
Speaker 2: he doesn't escape our attention this morning, called Marky, Marky,

1172
00:54:08,719 --> 00:54:12,239
Speaker 2: Marky a lot of food and drink. Mark a lot

1173
00:54:12,280 --> 00:54:15,759
Speaker 2: of food and drink, including sixty dollars one night on

1174
00:54:15,840 --> 00:54:16,560
Speaker 2: the old mini bar.

1175
00:54:17,239 --> 00:54:19,520
Speaker 13: Well, as we know, that's about one bag of nuts

1176
00:54:19,560 --> 00:54:19,880
Speaker 13: from him.

1177
00:54:20,200 --> 00:54:22,600
Speaker 2: Well exactly. I mean, there's that value for money. I

1178
00:54:22,640 --> 00:54:24,640
Speaker 2: think the Minister's going to be asking himself that question.

1179
00:54:24,719 --> 00:54:27,279
Speaker 2: Todd McLay, I'm assuming these are all gifts given EA's

1180
00:54:27,320 --> 00:54:30,520
Speaker 2: the trade minister. Forty one dollars of glazed sprouts in Dubai.

1181
00:54:32,520 --> 00:54:34,160
Speaker 2: Although having said that, if I was in Dubai and

1182
00:54:34,160 --> 00:54:35,719
Speaker 2: I saw some glaze sprouts, that go, jeez, what are

1183
00:54:35,760 --> 00:54:36,680
Speaker 2: they glaze sprouts?

1184
00:54:36,920 --> 00:54:37,480
Speaker 9: I have some of that.

1185
00:54:37,560 --> 00:54:38,880
Speaker 13: I don't think they come in any other way and

1186
00:54:38,960 --> 00:54:39,239
Speaker 13: do I.

1187
00:54:39,480 --> 00:54:42,440
Speaker 2: Think that's probably true. Minuka honey bottles their gifts, aren't they.

1188
00:54:42,760 --> 00:54:45,600
Speaker 2: I'm from New Zealand have some Minuka honey bottles chocolate

1189
00:54:45,680 --> 00:54:47,600
Speaker 2: Kiwi fruit? Is that cliche?

1190
00:54:47,800 --> 00:54:48,000
Speaker 9: Really?

1191
00:54:48,480 --> 00:54:49,040
Speaker 6: Are they doing that?

1192
00:54:49,400 --> 00:54:51,400
Speaker 13: So we've got the green, the yellow, the red and

1193
00:54:51,440 --> 00:54:51,960
Speaker 13: now chocolate.

1194
00:54:52,040 --> 00:54:53,839
Speaker 2: It's a very good question. Yes, say that was from

1195
00:54:53,880 --> 00:54:55,759
Speaker 2: the International airport though, So he's on the run through.

1196
00:54:55,800 --> 00:54:58,040
Speaker 2: Melissaly is not even a minister anymore. But I assume

1197
00:54:58,120 --> 00:55:01,240
Speaker 2: she did this before she got dumped. Amy Sandwich Kumra chunks.

1198
00:55:02,480 --> 00:55:05,600
Speaker 2: Come on, Shane Jones. Now if you know the history,

1199
00:55:05,600 --> 00:55:09,960
Speaker 2: you'll know why this is Shane Jones. Nothing Court once,

1200
00:55:10,080 --> 00:55:14,440
Speaker 2: never want to get caught again. Paul Goldsmith, This is

1201
00:55:14,560 --> 00:55:18,200
Speaker 2: so Paul Goldsmith four hundred dollars for a twelve month

1202
00:55:18,239 --> 00:55:22,080
Speaker 2: subscription to Otter. What's that? It's an AI voice to

1203
00:55:22,200 --> 00:55:27,080
Speaker 2: tech service. Of course it is Paul Simon Court. Now

1204
00:55:27,160 --> 00:55:31,040
Speaker 2: he goes the Burger Fuel and he orders the slow

1205
00:55:31,120 --> 00:55:35,520
Speaker 2: cook smoked pulled beef. Doesn't like tomato because he gets

1206
00:55:35,600 --> 00:55:42,120
Speaker 2: the tomato removed. Picky, Picky, Picky Judith one hundred and

Speaker 2: for salmon. Chris Bishop eight hundred dollars on laundry and

1214
00:56:11,840 --> 00:56:15,439
Speaker 2: the aforementioned Swip soda. Wait till I get the Prime

00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:21,200
Speaker 2: or no?

1217
00:56:22,719 --> 00:56:24,600

1219

Speaker 1: The Mikehosking breakfast with Bailey's real estate news talks.

1220
00:56:35,200 --> 00:56:36,920
Speaker 2: They'd be shiving away from it. If you thought the

1221
00:56:37,280 --> 00:56:39,840
Speaker 2: our mate Atapata on the Water Zone committee in Ashburton

1222
00:56:39,920 --> 00:56:42,960
Speaker 2: was a good story. How about the Hotophanua District's Rogan Boyle,

1223
00:56:43,080 --> 00:56:47,280
Speaker 2: who is serving as constituents these days from Scotland Council

1224
00:56:47,320 --> 00:56:49,799
Speaker 2: of Boil unlike Ariparta, has of course been present at

1225
00:56:49,840 --> 00:56:52,080
Speaker 2: the meetings, but he thinks that Zoom's a good, good

1226
00:56:52,120 --> 00:56:54,480
Speaker 2: way to do that. District Mayor Bernie Wanden with us

1227
00:56:54,520 --> 00:56:56,520
Speaker 2: on this Bernie morning, Good morning.

1228
00:56:56,560 --> 00:56:56,719
Speaker 14: Wow.

1229
00:56:56,760 --> 00:56:57,840
Speaker 2: How long has this been going on.

1230
00:56:57,920 --> 00:57:01,800
Speaker 12: For Castle Oil, if New Zealand late October?

1231
00:57:02,160 --> 00:57:04,520
Speaker 2: Right? And did anyone know he was leaving the country

1232
00:57:04,719 --> 00:57:05,960
Speaker 2: or well.

1233
00:57:05,920 --> 00:57:08,640
Speaker 12: We're whispers that he was leaving the country, but nothing

1234
00:57:08,680 --> 00:57:11,520
Speaker 12: official had been received by myself to say he was

1235
00:57:11,560 --> 00:57:13,120
Speaker 12: going to be away for any length of time.

1236
00:57:13,239 --> 00:57:15,040
Speaker 2: No, do you need to do that? Or can you

1237
00:57:15,160 --> 00:57:17,280
Speaker 2: just leave the country and stay out of the country

1238
00:57:17,680 --> 00:57:18,520
Speaker 2: for as long as you want?

1239
00:57:19,160 --> 00:57:23,600
Speaker 12: Well, it would be courtousy. I suppose to advise the

1240
00:57:23,920 --> 00:57:28,600
Speaker 12: council that he is leaving for some extended time. Council

1241
00:57:28,640 --> 00:57:31,640
Speaker 12: Boyler has always said that he didn't know how long

1242
00:57:31,760 --> 00:57:34,960
Speaker 12: he was going for. It was possibly going to be

1243
00:57:35,040 --> 00:57:36,760
Speaker 12: only two or three months, but you know it could

1244
00:57:36,800 --> 00:57:39,400
Speaker 12: be extended, and it looks like it has been extended.

1245
00:57:39,520 --> 00:57:41,240
Speaker 2: Are there any rules around this or not?

1246
00:57:42,440 --> 00:57:42,480
Speaker 6: Not?

1247
00:57:42,640 --> 00:57:47,440
Speaker 12: Really, No, the rules let the councilor zoom into a meeting.

1248
00:57:47,760 --> 00:57:51,200
Speaker 12: It doesn't say how long that should be for, so

1249
00:57:51,440 --> 00:57:54,120
Speaker 12: the rules are a little blurry if you like, in

1250
00:57:54,280 --> 00:57:56,680
Speaker 12: terms of that. So what he is doing is okay.

1251
00:57:57,600 --> 00:58:00,120
Speaker 12: All he has to do is really seek approval on

1252
00:58:00,400 --> 00:58:02,880
Speaker 12: me to be able to attend the meetings by Zoom

1253
00:58:03,000 --> 00:58:04,280
Speaker 12: And did you then.

1254
00:58:04,240 --> 00:58:06,560
Speaker 2: That's what he's been doing and you give that permission

1255
00:58:06,560 --> 00:58:07,000
Speaker 2: each time?

1256
00:58:08,000 --> 00:58:08,800
Speaker 6: Yes, I do.

1257
00:58:09,800 --> 00:58:13,800
Speaker 12: I don't see any reason why I shouldn't do that. Ultimately,

1258
00:58:13,920 --> 00:58:18,880
Speaker 12: though I suppose this is more an ethical values principle

1259
00:58:19,120 --> 00:58:21,680
Speaker 12: rather than following the rules or not.

1260
00:58:21,960 --> 00:58:23,840
Speaker 2: And how does he serve as people?

1261
00:58:24,960 --> 00:58:27,560
Speaker 12: Well, he believes that he can serve as people by

1262
00:58:27,760 --> 00:58:32,840
Speaker 12: maintaining contacts through social media, emails, etc. We've encouraged him

1263
00:58:32,880 --> 00:58:38,280
Speaker 12: to seek his constituents' views on that because they may have.

1264
00:58:38,320 --> 00:58:38,880
Speaker 6: A different view.

1265
00:58:38,920 --> 00:58:42,200
Speaker 2: Of course, he can run a poll on TikTok.

1266
00:58:43,120 --> 00:58:43,480
Speaker 6: He could.

1267
00:58:44,400 --> 00:58:47,520
Speaker 12: I've been pretty consistent on saying to him that he

1268
00:58:47,840 --> 00:58:52,040
Speaker 12: needs to advise us one way or the other whether

1269
00:58:52,160 --> 00:58:56,320
Speaker 12: he wishes to continue to Zoom or he resigns. But

1270
00:58:57,080 --> 00:59:01,920
Speaker 12: ultimately that's his decision. But I certainly don't support personally

1271
00:59:02,120 --> 00:59:04,080
Speaker 12: him continuing what he's doing at.

1272
00:59:04,000 --> 00:59:05,840
Speaker 2: The moment, nor should you. Is he standing again?

1273
00:59:05,920 --> 00:59:06,160
Speaker 6: Do you know?

1274
00:59:07,280 --> 00:59:12,120
Speaker 12: I don't know that for sure, but yeah, ultimately, again

1275
00:59:12,200 --> 00:59:13,040
Speaker 12: that's his decision.

1276
00:59:13,240 --> 00:59:16,840
Speaker 2: Doesn't pass the pub test, does it? Probably not? No?

1277
00:59:17,920 --> 00:59:20,080
Speaker 12: But you know this is a different where we live

1278
00:59:20,120 --> 00:59:23,760
Speaker 12: in these days. Look, the demands on councilors are extreme,

1279
00:59:24,680 --> 00:59:27,400
Speaker 12: and I believe that there should be some flexibility and

1280
00:59:27,480 --> 00:59:30,200
Speaker 12: alloning counselors to operate in the best way they can.

1281
00:59:31,400 --> 00:59:34,040
Speaker 12: As I said, this is ultimately his decision and whether

1282
00:59:34,120 --> 00:59:37,560
Speaker 12: he believes he's doing justice to the role by operating

1283
00:59:37,600 --> 00:59:38,680
Speaker 12: overseas at the moment.

1284
00:59:38,600 --> 00:59:40,880
Speaker 2: I suppose the upside is if he runs again, the

1285
00:59:41,160 --> 00:59:43,560
Speaker 2: people will have their say. Bernie appreciate that, Bernie Wandon

1286
00:59:43,680 --> 00:59:47,240
Speaker 2: Horriforu a district council mayor. So your blokes in Scotland

1287
00:59:48,160 --> 00:59:50,520
Speaker 2: and our aparty doesn't turn up and still gets paid.

1288
00:59:50,640 --> 00:59:54,600
Speaker 2: Nobody wants to do anything about it. And Mark's at

1289
00:59:54,640 --> 00:59:59,560
Speaker 2: the mini bar and Judith is ordering salmon, Nichol is

1290
00:59:59,600 --> 01:00:03,320
Speaker 2: on the ma Kingdoms. She's a crazy old country. Isn't

1291
01:00:03,360 --> 01:00:04,800
Speaker 2: it a news for you? In a couple of moments,

1292
01:00:04,840 --> 01:00:07,200
Speaker 2: and then Kate Hawksby in term Wilson will do the

1293
01:00:07,240 --> 01:00:09,240
Speaker 2: work here as news talks'b.

1294
01:00:09,000 --> 01:00:17,440
Speaker 3: You setting the agenda and talking the big issues.

1295
01:00:17,840 --> 01:00:21,920
Speaker 1: The Mike HARKing breakfast with Bailey's real estate, finding the buyers.

1296
01:00:22,120 --> 01:00:23,640
Speaker 3: Others can't use dogs dead.

1297
01:00:23,520 --> 01:00:26,000
Speaker 6: Be I remember.

1298
01:00:31,000 --> 01:00:36,840
Speaker 2: The Sam's not here from a favorite books, Mike. When

1299
01:00:36,840 --> 01:00:38,880
Speaker 2: you look at how little our politicians are paid, who

1300
01:00:38,920 --> 01:00:40,920
Speaker 2: can blame them for using their expense accounts for work

1301
01:00:40,960 --> 01:00:43,440
Speaker 2: related expenses? Just for the record, just be I'm not

1302
01:00:43,720 --> 01:00:46,240
Speaker 2: outing these people in terms of some sort of scandal.

1303
01:00:46,280 --> 01:00:50,120
Speaker 2: There is no scandal here. This is publicly available information

1304
01:00:50,240 --> 01:00:54,280
Speaker 2: that comes out periodically in a transparent process that keeps

1305
01:00:54,360 --> 01:00:56,480
Speaker 2: us informed as to what these guys are up to. So,

1306
01:00:56,600 --> 01:00:59,240
Speaker 2: I mean this is all legit. I mean, I assume

1307
01:00:59,800 --> 01:01:03,720
Speaker 2: and funny. Yeah, highly amused. That's why we're doing Samuel late.

1308
01:01:04,040 --> 01:01:06,000
Speaker 2: Now here's the problem. So what's happened with Sammy? Do

1309
01:01:06,120 --> 01:01:07,080
Speaker 2: we have the gifts of the guests?

1310
01:01:07,280 --> 01:01:07,400
Speaker 8: Oh?

1311
01:01:07,440 --> 01:01:08,120
Speaker 6: You did it when?

1312
01:01:09,600 --> 01:01:11,000
Speaker 2: Now this is a douge.

1313
01:01:10,680 --> 01:01:11,280
Speaker 9: Moment, isn't it?

1314
01:01:12,000 --> 01:01:15,360
Speaker 2: Listen, this is a douge moment. So Tim's here, Tim,

1315
01:01:15,440 --> 01:01:21,080
Speaker 2: good morning, good morning. And Katie's here, good morning, good morning. Right,

1316
01:01:21,160 --> 01:01:22,240
Speaker 2: So who wring you this morning?

1317
01:01:22,760 --> 01:01:28,440
Speaker 6: You clean clean because you'd dispect Sam on some fruitless coffee?

1318
01:01:29,160 --> 01:01:32,040
Speaker 6: How much did that cost? Where are the expenses?

1319
01:01:32,120 --> 01:01:35,520
Speaker 2: Well that's our money, Katie, HiT's the money you gave Sam.

1320
01:01:35,600 --> 01:01:37,800
Speaker 2: So it's us who's paying for it. Don't don't try

1321
01:01:40,200 --> 01:01:42,120
Speaker 2: do you reckon I've gone through the budget. Well we'll

1322
01:01:42,160 --> 01:01:45,000
Speaker 2: transfer it to Sam. Sam says no, but we can

1323
01:01:45,080 --> 01:01:48,000
Speaker 2: transport some transfer some more tomorrow. So my point begging,

1324
01:01:49,640 --> 01:01:52,600
Speaker 2: if you're here on here and I'm here on here

1325
01:01:53,640 --> 01:01:58,360
Speaker 2: and Glen got you up, what does Sam do the week.

1326
01:01:58,320 --> 01:02:02,640
Speaker 1: Review with two degrees bringing smart business solutions to the table.

1327
01:02:03,160 --> 01:02:06,440
Speaker 6: Yeah, no, no, no, you're arguing, you're arguing to get

1328
01:02:06,520 --> 01:02:10,320
Speaker 6: your own damn Coffee's.

1329
01:02:08,800 --> 01:02:11,000
Speaker 2: The here's the problem. Here's the problem. Think you said,

1330
01:02:11,040 --> 01:02:13,680
Speaker 2: thank you, here's the problem. The problem is we're trying

1331
01:02:13,720 --> 01:02:17,080
Speaker 2: a new outlet this morning because we want to spread

1332
01:02:17,080 --> 01:02:19,280
Speaker 2: ourselves around the market. So normally we go to Scratch

1333
01:02:19,920 --> 01:02:22,480
Speaker 2: and we had quality issues with Scratches, you'll remember, and

1334
01:02:22,520 --> 01:02:27,800
Speaker 2: they supplied a they supplied they supplied a backup which

1335
01:02:27,920 --> 01:02:30,200
Speaker 2: which was a massive improvement. But there's a new place

1336
01:02:30,240 --> 01:02:33,040
Speaker 2: called Melbur which and this is where and this is

1337
01:02:33,160 --> 01:02:36,560
Speaker 2: me me coming to Sam's aid. I said, Melburgh, he said,

1338
01:02:36,640 --> 01:02:39,360
Speaker 2: Sam said, he said, what about Melburn. Let's try over there.

1339
01:02:39,640 --> 01:02:42,320
Speaker 2: But Melburgh distance wise, is further away from Scratch And

1340
01:02:42,440 --> 01:02:44,840
Speaker 2: I said, whoops, you're going to be pushing it. And

1341
01:02:45,040 --> 01:02:46,920
Speaker 2: what we found out this morning is it's too far

1342
01:02:47,000 --> 01:02:48,080
Speaker 2: because Sam didn't get back.

1343
01:02:47,960 --> 01:02:49,160
Speaker 13: And to be fair, it was a bit of a

1344
01:02:49,240 --> 01:02:49,760
Speaker 13: late decision.

1345
01:02:50,000 --> 01:02:54,720
Speaker 2: Was a late decisions made. Well, the decision was made

1346
01:02:54,760 --> 01:02:55,840
Speaker 2: about two minutes past eight.

1347
01:02:56,840 --> 01:03:00,400
Speaker 22: Oh, that's crazy that he's done unbelievably Well, yeah, I

1348
01:03:00,480 --> 01:03:01,000
Speaker 22: think he has.

1349
01:03:01,160 --> 01:03:01,680
Speaker 2: I think he has.

1350
01:03:02,320 --> 01:03:05,040
Speaker 6: I'll taste this look does does feel a bit like

1351
01:03:05,080 --> 01:03:06,160
Speaker 6: a hypothetical though.

1352
01:03:06,280 --> 01:03:09,080
Speaker 2: Can because that does feel like hypothetical. You're quite right,

1353
01:03:09,120 --> 01:03:10,120
Speaker 2: and we need to cut to the chase.

1354
01:03:10,200 --> 01:03:13,640
Speaker 1: That was zig Week in Review with two degrees fighting

1355
01:03:13,720 --> 01:03:15,160
Speaker 1: for fear for Kiwi business.

1356
01:03:15,280 --> 01:03:17,280
Speaker 2: Got to give them value for money because God knows

1357
01:03:17,280 --> 01:03:20,800
Speaker 2: why they spend money on this. Ziggy Elbert's New Love

1358
01:03:21,000 --> 01:03:22,280
Speaker 2: is the name of the album. Do you know Ziggy

1359
01:03:22,320 --> 01:03:22,960
Speaker 2: Albert's Caddie?

1360
01:03:23,800 --> 01:03:23,840
Speaker 5: No?

1361
01:03:24,640 --> 01:03:28,240
Speaker 2: Okay and me neither? What about you, Tim Never? I

1362
01:03:28,320 --> 01:03:31,800
Speaker 2: mean I know Ziggy Marleyberts. This is a more random

1363
01:03:31,840 --> 01:03:35,760
Speaker 2: crap that Glenn's found twelve tracks. He's Australian, he wrote

1364
01:03:35,800 --> 01:03:37,840
Speaker 2: it all around the world, but he got back to Australia,

1365
01:03:38,200 --> 01:03:40,400
Speaker 2: the East Coast of Australia, and he's got twelve tracks

1366
01:03:40,400 --> 01:03:41,439
Speaker 2: and thirty and a half minutes.

1367
01:03:41,480 --> 01:03:44,760
Speaker 1: So not a Week in Review with two degrees bringing

1368
01:03:44,880 --> 01:03:46,760
Speaker 1: smart business solutions to the table.

1369
01:03:46,960 --> 01:03:47,680
Speaker 2: Now, what do you reckon?

1370
01:03:47,920 --> 01:03:51,480
Speaker 6: This is what happens. This is what buck, It is exactly.

1371
01:03:51,520 --> 01:03:53,760
Speaker 6: This is what happens when Glenn he's paying us back

1372
01:03:53,880 --> 01:03:56,120
Speaker 6: for having to call us up because you dispatched Sam

1373
01:03:56,200 --> 01:03:57,160
Speaker 6: on this fruitless coffee.

1374
01:03:57,520 --> 01:03:59,160
Speaker 2: It's not fruitless because I've got my coffee.

1375
01:03:59,760 --> 01:04:01,240
Speaker 22: Yeah, how was the Melbourne Medium Black?

1376
01:04:01,400 --> 01:04:04,560
Speaker 2: Melbourne Medium Black is a very good it's a highly

1377
01:04:04,720 --> 01:04:07,080
Speaker 2: competitive product. What do we pay for that? How much

1378
01:04:07,160 --> 01:04:12,240
Speaker 2: is it ten ninety for me and Jace? I paid

1379
01:04:12,280 --> 01:04:14,200
Speaker 2: for Jason? I think you'll need to transfer more money

1380
01:04:14,600 --> 01:04:17,240
Speaker 2: Jason had. Now this is what's going on. This is

1381
01:04:17,320 --> 01:04:21,000
Speaker 2: basically we are wigas because Jason was in the control

1382
01:04:21,080 --> 01:04:23,680
Speaker 2: room earlier. And Kerry, who does the nine to noon show,

1383
01:04:24,600 --> 01:04:27,280
Speaker 2: she was dispatched to get Jason's coffee and she brought

1384
01:04:27,320 --> 01:04:30,560
Speaker 2: back he has a seven hundred and fifty mil medium

1385
01:04:30,640 --> 01:04:36,600
Speaker 2: flat cappuccino SWI Lata. It was just disgusting, absolutely disgusting.

1386
01:04:37,400 --> 01:04:40,600
Speaker 2: Now where are we at with the expense accounts, Katie?

1387
01:04:40,600 --> 01:04:42,959
Speaker 2: You're at your observation of the expense accounts this morning

1388
01:04:43,000 --> 01:04:44,680
Speaker 2: and the Pegasus Magnum prima Donna.

1389
01:04:49,640 --> 01:04:51,800
Speaker 22: Of course they're not buying that for themselves. You know,

1390
01:04:53,320 --> 01:04:54,439
Speaker 22: of course they're not, Well.

1391
01:04:54,360 --> 01:04:56,520
Speaker 2: What's Chris Bishop doing on this laundry? Is he doing

1392
01:04:56,560 --> 01:04:59,200
Speaker 2: his himself for somebody else's Well, they have.

1393
01:04:59,280 --> 01:05:00,440
Speaker 6: A certain don't they.

1394
01:05:00,520 --> 01:05:01,760
Speaker 1: They're titled to spend.

1395
01:05:01,640 --> 01:05:01,920
Speaker 6: Do they.

1396
01:05:02,440 --> 01:05:05,000
Speaker 2: I don't know, This is the point. No, I don't know.

1397
01:05:05,520 --> 01:05:08,280
Speaker 2: Jason Caban and he said, well, what's your computer doing

1398
01:05:08,320 --> 01:05:11,720
Speaker 2: at home? My print my special printer at home? You said,

1399
01:05:11,760 --> 01:05:13,680
Speaker 2: let's get that back straight away because I didn't pay

1400
01:05:13,720 --> 01:05:16,400
Speaker 2: for that. So suddenly I'm now in the expense is

1401
01:05:16,480 --> 01:05:19,400
Speaker 2: gun because I raised this embarrassing issue on air.

1402
01:05:20,080 --> 01:05:21,720
Speaker 22: Yeah, but like them, you do a lot of work

1403
01:05:21,840 --> 01:05:24,920
Speaker 22: from home from home. The majority of your day is

1404
01:05:24,960 --> 01:05:27,760
Speaker 22: spent working from home. So that's what they're doing. They're

1405
01:05:27,800 --> 01:05:29,440
Speaker 22: working out on the road, they're working over you know,

1406
01:05:29,560 --> 01:05:30,520
Speaker 22: that's what they've.

1407
01:05:30,320 --> 01:05:33,960
Speaker 6: Got to do. And they'd be aware that these expenses

1408
01:05:34,080 --> 01:05:35,520
Speaker 6: would be visible.

1409
01:05:35,720 --> 01:05:37,640
Speaker 2: So I think that's what I'm saying, have someone, I

1410
01:05:37,680 --> 01:05:39,600
Speaker 2: don't think there's a scandal here. It's just I mean,

1411
01:05:39,840 --> 01:05:42,960
Speaker 2: even though they're published, and I can understand one blokes

1412
01:05:43,000 --> 01:05:45,520
Speaker 2: at Burger Fuel and dueis eating a lot of salmon

1413
01:05:45,600 --> 01:05:48,200
Speaker 2: and Mark's raiding the mini bar, it still doesn't explain

1414
01:05:48,320 --> 01:05:51,960
Speaker 2: Chris's gargantuan laundtry Bill. I mean, no one else is

1415
01:05:52,000 --> 01:05:53,840
Speaker 2: doing the laundry like Chris is doing. So if they're

1416
01:05:53,840 --> 01:05:55,680
Speaker 2: all out in the road doing the job, how come

1417
01:05:55,760 --> 01:05:56,760
Speaker 2: Chris is laundering like this?

1418
01:05:56,920 --> 01:06:00,680
Speaker 6: Noted sympathetic? You're a clean free you should be more

1419
01:06:00,680 --> 01:06:02,680
Speaker 6: sympathetic myself.

1420
01:06:02,800 --> 01:06:04,560
Speaker 2: I mean, should I if I get a printer at

1421
01:06:04,560 --> 01:06:05,160
Speaker 2: home from Enzi?

1422
01:06:05,280 --> 01:06:05,320
Speaker 5: Me?

1423
01:06:05,440 --> 01:06:07,200
Speaker 2: Should I? Suddenly? You know, I've got a very nice

1424
01:06:07,240 --> 01:06:09,560
Speaker 2: cash mere top on. It will need a hand It'll

1425
01:06:09,640 --> 01:06:11,400
Speaker 2: need a hand lawnd And why don't I just charge

1426
01:06:11,480 --> 01:06:12,120
Speaker 2: that to the company.

1427
01:06:12,880 --> 01:06:13,840
Speaker 6: Well, that's not a bit business.

1428
01:06:13,840 --> 01:06:15,400
Speaker 22: You see. I'm going to defend Mark because I think

1429
01:06:15,440 --> 01:06:17,320
Speaker 22: he's the future leader of the National power here.

1430
01:06:17,520 --> 01:06:21,560
Speaker 2: Oh no, no, no, no, not after this week, come on.

1431
01:06:21,960 --> 01:06:22,840
Speaker 6: Yes he will be.

1432
01:06:23,200 --> 01:06:25,200
Speaker 22: And so what I'm saying is I start my very

1433
01:06:25,240 --> 01:06:28,600
Speaker 22: early campaign for Mike Mitchell for PM. Is he probably

1434
01:06:28,680 --> 01:06:31,040
Speaker 22: worked late. He didn't he had to skip dinner and

1435
01:06:31,120 --> 01:06:32,680
Speaker 22: so he needed to just have some nuts out of

1436
01:06:32,720 --> 01:06:33,160
Speaker 22: the mini bar.

1437
01:06:33,320 --> 01:06:37,240
Speaker 2: Do you think it's nothing get a meal? Yeah, okay,

1438
01:06:37,400 --> 01:06:37,600
Speaker 2: I have.

1439
01:06:37,800 --> 01:06:40,600
Speaker 6: I have heard that he has been working quite hard,

1440
01:06:40,760 --> 01:06:43,120
Speaker 6: like up to midnight every night. So and I think

1441
01:06:43,160 --> 01:06:44,440
Speaker 6: a lot of politicis you know, a lot of these

1442
01:06:44,440 --> 01:06:50,920
Speaker 6: plow It's long, grinding hours. So so I'm not I'm

1443
01:06:50,960 --> 01:06:53,320
Speaker 6: not sure about I'm not sure about the campaign for

1444
01:06:53,440 --> 01:06:54,919
Speaker 6: Mark to be Leader of the National Party.

1445
01:06:55,120 --> 01:06:55,439
Speaker 9: I don't.

1446
01:06:55,480 --> 01:06:58,000
Speaker 6: I don't think. I feel like CRYS will move on

1447
01:06:58,120 --> 01:06:59,600
Speaker 6: for it, Chris Lax and I will move on from this.

1448
01:07:00,040 --> 01:07:02,680
Speaker 2: Do you fear to be fair? To be fair? Tim

1449
01:07:02,760 --> 01:07:05,400
Speaker 2: to Katie, she was on the Mark Mitchell campaign early

1450
01:07:05,520 --> 01:07:09,080
Speaker 2: on before Luxo came along, and so she's been She's

1451
01:07:09,120 --> 01:07:11,680
Speaker 2: got a thing about Mark has done for years. And

1452
01:07:11,920 --> 01:07:13,479
Speaker 2: do you know why why, I'd.

1453
01:07:13,480 --> 01:07:17,680
Speaker 22: Explain why, because he's affable and front facing to the public.

1454
01:07:18,120 --> 01:07:20,520
Speaker 22: It's very hard to dislike him because he talks like

1455
01:07:20,640 --> 01:07:22,880
Speaker 22: a normal human. He comes across as a man of

1456
01:07:22,920 --> 01:07:25,520
Speaker 22: the people. Luxon's still too corporate. He appears to me

1457
01:07:25,600 --> 01:07:28,919
Speaker 22: to be uncoachable and that he just cannot seem to talk.

1458
01:07:29,480 --> 01:07:32,480
Speaker 22: He's got to give you his you know, rehearsed bullet points,

1459
01:07:32,880 --> 01:07:36,040
Speaker 22: and so he seems removed from humanity. You've got to

1460
01:07:36,080 --> 01:07:38,000
Speaker 22: be human and that's why I back Mark.

1461
01:07:38,560 --> 01:07:41,240
Speaker 2: Sam just said he doesn't have an opinion on politics Wednesday.

1462
01:07:41,320 --> 01:07:43,600
Speaker 2: Sam's undermining him here is now on our own show,

1463
01:07:43,640 --> 01:07:48,400
Speaker 2: which is extraordinary to here. But nevertheless, I mean, I

1464
01:07:48,480 --> 01:07:49,960
Speaker 2: thought it was a good slot. But Sam saying he

1465
01:07:50,000 --> 01:07:51,840
Speaker 2: doesn't even have an opinion. For goodness sake, he's raiding

1466
01:07:51,880 --> 01:07:53,720
Speaker 2: the medi baron. He's got no opinions? How can you

1467
01:07:53,760 --> 01:07:54,960
Speaker 2: back him for the prime ministership.

1468
01:07:56,360 --> 01:07:58,160
Speaker 22: I'm what I'm most concerned about this morning is the

1469
01:07:58,240 --> 01:08:00,120
Speaker 22: key with for it because I've been in the suder Mark.

1470
01:08:00,200 --> 01:08:00,880
Speaker 2: Talk this morning.

1471
01:08:01,400 --> 01:08:02,360
Speaker 17: Here's the thing we don't get.

1472
01:08:02,440 --> 01:08:02,920
Speaker 6: Why don't we do?

1473
01:08:03,040 --> 01:08:05,120
Speaker 22: I don't understand why don't we get the choice? Yes,

1474
01:08:05,200 --> 01:08:06,720
Speaker 22: you can bring in some Italian keepy for it if

1475
01:08:06,760 --> 01:08:06,920
Speaker 22: you want.

1476
01:08:07,600 --> 01:08:08,400
Speaker 1: Where's the New Zealand?

1477
01:08:08,800 --> 01:08:09,000
Speaker 6: Yeah?

1478
01:08:09,160 --> 01:08:11,000
Speaker 2: Why do we not have the you raise a very

1479
01:08:11,000 --> 01:08:13,040
Speaker 2: important point? Brief break more in the moment to Willson

1480
01:08:13,120 --> 01:08:14,000
Speaker 2: Kate hawksby.

Speaker 3: The weekend review with two degrees fighting for Fear for Kiwi.

1485
01:08:28,479 --> 01:08:31,160
Speaker 2: Business to me, what's in the kids lunches today?

1486
01:08:32,880 --> 01:08:34,040
Speaker 3: In the kids lunch it's the.

1487
01:08:36,800 --> 01:08:39,360
Speaker 6: Boiled eggs and some other stuff. I got, I got

1488
01:08:39,400 --> 01:08:42,360
Speaker 6: it started, my bride picked it up because we're a team.

1489
01:08:42,479 --> 01:08:46,040
Speaker 2: So okay, is it, broadly speaking, the same thing each day?

1490
01:08:47,240 --> 01:08:50,160
Speaker 6: No, it's not, because we get pushedback. So you've got

1491
01:08:50,240 --> 01:08:53,080
Speaker 6: a you've got alternated but I did butterfly toast yesterday.

1492
01:08:53,160 --> 01:08:57,519
Speaker 6: Butterfly toast is toasted bread, butter veggie mit and some

1493
01:08:57,800 --> 01:08:58,599
Speaker 6: cheese melted.

1494
01:08:59,040 --> 01:09:00,479
Speaker 2: And where's the butterfly? I come in.

1495
01:09:02,200 --> 01:09:03,760
Speaker 6: You cut it, and you cut it and shut it

1496
01:09:04,640 --> 01:09:06,800
Speaker 6: nice shapes rather than day.

1497
01:09:07,080 --> 01:09:11,080
Speaker 2: So it's a butterfly okay, because maybe then the principles

1498
01:09:11,160 --> 01:09:13,280
Speaker 2: have a point if you do something different every day

1499
01:09:13,280 --> 01:09:14,880
Speaker 2: because you get pushed back. In my day, we just

1500
01:09:14,960 --> 01:09:17,240
Speaker 2: had the same thing every day. It was what it was.

1501
01:09:19,040 --> 01:09:21,200
Speaker 6: In my day. Like we used to get so we

1502
01:09:21,320 --> 01:09:23,400
Speaker 6: get the dog sausage at the beginning of the week,

1503
01:09:23,439 --> 01:09:25,960
Speaker 6: and when the dog sausage ran out, we'd get raisins,

1504
01:09:27,520 --> 01:09:28,800
Speaker 6: our sandwiches.

1505
01:09:28,520 --> 01:09:30,760
Speaker 2: Lunch and sausage. Whatever happened to lunch and sausage. You

1506
01:09:30,840 --> 01:09:33,760
Speaker 2: get two slices of white bread, you get the lunch

1507
01:09:33,840 --> 01:09:36,040
Speaker 2: and sausage, and you wack a bit of tomato sauce

1508
01:09:36,080 --> 01:09:39,879
Speaker 2: on it, and there's your sandwich, lunch and sausage.

1509
01:09:41,360 --> 01:09:44,280
Speaker 22: Just give everybody colon cancer for lunch disgusting.

1510
01:09:44,439 --> 01:09:46,479
Speaker 2: Well, I haven't got colon cancer. Look at me, I'm

1511
01:09:46,520 --> 01:09:48,479
Speaker 2: drinking coffee. I've got the number one radio show in

1512
01:09:48,520 --> 01:09:50,960
Speaker 2: the country, and I lived on lunch and sausage sandwiches.

1513
01:09:56,960 --> 01:09:59,800
Speaker 22: I think you get to a certain age where you

1514
01:09:59,800 --> 01:10:02,479
Speaker 22: can't You can no longer start sentences with in my day.

1515
01:10:02,520 --> 01:10:05,840
Speaker 2: Because it's too far away. Yeah, that's true. I do

1516
01:10:05,920 --> 01:10:07,519
Speaker 2: worry about that. Can I also say I was just

1517
01:10:07,560 --> 01:10:10,639
Speaker 2: thinking about my dry cleaning bill for my cashmere top.

1518
01:10:11,120 --> 01:10:12,479
Speaker 2: Have you seen the video of Matt.

1519
01:10:12,320 --> 01:10:17,200
Speaker 6: Heath spelling spelling coffee all over the desk? Yeah, it's

1520
01:10:17,280 --> 01:10:21,320
Speaker 6: so what's.

1521
01:10:19,520 --> 01:10:20,599
Speaker 22: Still allowed in your studio?

1522
01:10:20,840 --> 01:10:23,240
Speaker 2: That's that's my Well, that's my ongoing issue with management

1523
01:10:23,760 --> 01:10:27,200
Speaker 2: running and I'm not running an authoritarian enough show is

1524
01:10:27,280 --> 01:10:30,120
Speaker 2: the point, because my argument with management isn't going down well.

1525
01:10:30,160 --> 01:10:32,080
Speaker 2: But here's the first thing. There's two points about Matt Heath.

1526
01:10:32,640 --> 01:10:34,760
Speaker 2: One one of the first things he did when he

1527
01:10:34,800 --> 01:10:38,120
Speaker 2: spilled his coffee in my studio was take his top

1528
01:10:38,200 --> 01:10:40,560
Speaker 2: off and wipe it up. Now, that to me is

1529
01:10:40,720 --> 01:10:44,120
Speaker 2: just the most random response to a problem.

1530
01:10:44,880 --> 01:10:48,080
Speaker 6: But have you seen any sent it? Then he sent

1531
01:10:48,160 --> 01:10:50,519
Speaker 6: it to Chris Bishop to get laundon that's true.

1532
01:10:50,520 --> 01:10:52,280
Speaker 2: He's probably got to cover it off by Chris, but

1533
01:10:53,080 --> 01:10:53,920
Speaker 2: he's he's just.

1534
01:10:54,040 --> 01:10:55,720
Speaker 22: Used to getting his kid off. That's his go to,

1535
01:10:56,120 --> 01:10:57,000
Speaker 22: just went and.

1536
01:10:57,280 --> 01:10:59,680
Speaker 2: Get Well, that's my next point. If you look like

1537
01:11:00,360 --> 01:11:02,320
Speaker 2: if you look like him, why would you take your

1538
01:11:02,360 --> 01:11:07,960
Speaker 2: top off? Have you seen he's in shocking shape shape?

1539
01:11:08,520 --> 01:11:10,519
Speaker 2: I cannot say, can't go why not?

1540
01:11:12,160 --> 01:11:14,720
Speaker 6: Here's the here's the here's the deal. I just got

1541
01:11:14,840 --> 01:11:18,720
Speaker 6: to say, you're you're rinsing the PM for not not

1542
01:11:18,800 --> 01:11:23,439
Speaker 6: showing agency. Where's where's where's the where's the agency shown here?

1543
01:11:23,520 --> 01:11:26,839
Speaker 6: Where's where's the where's the is he in Jason's office?

1544
01:11:27,320 --> 01:11:28,880
Speaker 6: What's the what's the timeline?

1545
01:11:30,600 --> 01:11:33,960
Speaker 2: What is the process currently underway? Yeah? No, I can't

1546
01:11:33,960 --> 01:11:38,320
Speaker 2: answer that to be fair today, Defense.

1547
01:11:38,400 --> 01:11:40,920
Speaker 13: And Tyler apparently the grievances go both ways. Just have

1548
01:11:41,000 --> 01:11:41,519
Speaker 13: to listen to this.

1549
01:11:42,280 --> 01:11:44,760
Speaker 2: I'm just looking over the rubbishman here, and Hoskin doesn't

1550
01:11:45,040 --> 01:11:47,479
Speaker 2: the rubbishman when he leaves because he's too chopped up

1551
01:11:47,520 --> 01:11:48,080
Speaker 2: little bits.

1552
01:11:47,960 --> 01:11:50,000
Speaker 3: Of lemon in here. Yeah and so, and I understand

1553
01:11:50,120 --> 01:11:52,439
Speaker 3: he's on some kind of lemon detox or something.

1554
01:11:52,560 --> 01:11:54,240
Speaker 8: Yeah, you can't leave frat and the band come on,

1555
01:11:54,600 --> 01:11:56,479
Speaker 8: So we put that one to be apart apart from

1556
01:11:56,520 --> 01:11:57,920
Speaker 8: the lemon slices in the rubbish.

1557
01:11:58,080 --> 01:11:59,520
Speaker 3: We might bring that up with management.

1558
01:12:01,880 --> 01:12:05,920
Speaker 2: About that, all right, No citrus, but didn't it. No,

1559
01:12:06,120 --> 01:12:07,720
Speaker 2: they've got a very good point. I should empty the

1560
01:12:07,760 --> 01:12:09,840
Speaker 2: rubbishan after my show. I empty the rubbish ban for

1561
01:12:09,960 --> 01:12:13,360
Speaker 2: the whole day every morning, but I should also empty

1562
01:12:13,360 --> 01:12:15,439
Speaker 2: the rubbish bean after my show as well, which would

1563
01:12:15,439 --> 01:12:17,320
Speaker 2: then mean I'd empty the rubbishman on a twenty four

1564
01:12:17,320 --> 01:12:19,439
Speaker 2: hour cycle three times, which I think is about two

1565
01:12:19,479 --> 01:12:21,680
Speaker 2: times too many for you.

1566
01:12:21,720 --> 01:12:24,880
Speaker 22: Should be invoicing inded me for a cleaner's fee as well,

1567
01:12:25,000 --> 01:12:26,000
Speaker 22: on top of your.

1568
01:12:26,080 --> 01:12:28,280
Speaker 2: Apparently I've been told we pay for cleaners. They've just

1569
01:12:28,360 --> 01:12:30,040
Speaker 2: never been seen. They're very much like that guy on

1570
01:12:30,080 --> 01:12:32,800
Speaker 2: the Ashburt and Water Committee. They keept the money, but.

1571
01:12:32,800 --> 01:12:37,439
Speaker 6: They don't turn up County Scotland. Yeah, they're actually doing

1572
01:12:37,479 --> 01:12:39,240
Speaker 6: it by zoom from Scotland. It's all fine.

1573
01:12:39,520 --> 01:12:41,639
Speaker 2: It certainly looks like that. If you said to me, hey,

1574
01:12:41,880 --> 01:12:43,880
Speaker 2: have you seen the cleaners there in Scotland, I'd go

1575
01:12:44,040 --> 01:12:47,080

1603
01:13:59,000 --> 01:14:01,040
Speaker 2: I just heard you do most of the work at home.

1604
01:14:01,439 --> 01:14:05,439
Speaker 2: Are with your work printer. Somewhat odd from someone harping

1605
01:14:05,520 --> 01:14:08,080
Speaker 2: on about people doing work from the office. You make

1606
01:14:10,760 --> 01:14:13,200
Speaker 2: a needlessly aggressive point at this time on a Friday,

1607
01:14:13,320 --> 01:14:16,120
Speaker 2: But there's something in there. Now, let me tell you

1608
01:14:16,160 --> 01:14:18,160
Speaker 2: about my day. My day starts at three, and it

1609
01:14:18,240 --> 01:14:21,040
Speaker 2: goes here until nine, and then I go home at nine,

1610
01:14:21,920 --> 01:14:24,160
Speaker 2: and then when I get home, I start working again

1611
01:14:24,200 --> 01:14:26,280
Speaker 2: about eleven, and I work through until sort of the

1612
01:14:26,360 --> 01:14:27,599
Speaker 2: end of the day. I reckon, I do a twelve

1613
01:14:27,680 --> 01:14:31,799
Speaker 2: our day, So I can't be here all day because

1614
01:14:32,000 --> 01:14:34,160
Speaker 2: no one likes me here. And so if I just

1615
01:14:34,280 --> 01:14:36,600
Speaker 2: hung around all day, they'd go, why is he? I mean,

1616
01:14:36,600 --> 01:14:37,360
Speaker 2: they wouldn't say.

1617
01:14:37,200 --> 01:14:39,400
Speaker 13: It to him. Why rubbish beIN's sticking of lemon.

1618
01:14:39,320 --> 01:14:42,280
Speaker 2: Exactly, and they go, why is he still here? So

1619
01:14:42,439 --> 01:14:44,479
Speaker 2: I've got to go home. So there's nothing I can

1620
01:14:44,520 --> 01:14:48,680
Speaker 2: do about it. Winston Peters lots of sports jerseys, but

1621
01:14:48,760 --> 01:14:52,120
Speaker 2: they're gifts, so that's good. Penny Simmons, now this otter

1622
01:14:52,200 --> 01:14:55,880
Speaker 2: Ai thing that Goldsmith started, she also spent four hundred

1623
01:14:55,920 --> 01:14:58,040
Speaker 2: on the otter Ai, but she spent another two forty

1624
01:14:58,080 --> 01:15:00,519
Speaker 2: for a start to have it as well. That to

1625
01:15:00,600 --> 01:15:02,880
Speaker 2: buy one, get the second one discounted type of option,

1626
01:15:03,000 --> 01:15:06,320
Speaker 2: but the best one, the best one by so far.

1627
01:15:06,479 --> 01:15:09,200
Speaker 2: It doesn't matter. I will have for you after the news,

1628
01:15:09,240 --> 01:15:11,240
Speaker 2: which is next, News Talks.

1629
01:15:11,080 --> 01:15:16,040
Speaker 1: Ed B, the Breakfast Show, Kiwi's Trust to Stay in

Speaker 1: the Know, The Mic Hosking Breakfast with al Vida, Retirement Communities,

1631
01:15:21,040 --> 01:15:22,920
Speaker 1: Life Your Way, News Talks head B.

1632
01:15:23,160 --> 01:15:27,800
Speaker 2: Just to wrap up our extensive investigation into MP's expenditure

1633
01:15:27,840 --> 01:15:30,200
Speaker 2: this morning, Erica stand for three thirty five for an

1634
01:15:30,200 --> 01:15:32,720
Speaker 2: airport transfer from the Gold Coast to Brisbane. We talked

1635
01:15:32,760 --> 01:15:34,800
Speaker 2: about this off air. Sammy was a bit worried about it,

1636
01:15:34,840 --> 01:15:36,840
Speaker 2: thought it was high. I said, it's a long way

1637
01:15:36,840 --> 01:15:38,560
Speaker 2: from the Gold Coast to Brisbane. It's an hour and

1638
01:15:38,560 --> 01:15:41,400
Speaker 2: a half. He said, should could have gone Uber and

1639
01:15:41,600 --> 01:15:44,080
Speaker 2: he asked are they allowed to go uber internationally? Which

1640
01:15:44,080 --> 01:15:47,880
Speaker 2: I thought was an interesting question. She also likes fijar

1641
01:15:47,920 --> 01:15:56,080
Speaker 2: and apple juice, Louise Upston door dash order, Carl's Junior hmm,

1642
01:15:57,080 --> 01:16:00,639
Speaker 2: a Philly cheese steak, double Bigangus combo with Cope zero

1643
01:16:01,439 --> 01:16:06,280
Speaker 2: and some extra onion rings. Surely, if you know this

1644
01:16:06,439 --> 01:16:08,519
Speaker 2: is going to be made public when you order, you

1645
01:16:08,640 --> 01:16:11,880
Speaker 2: think when this has made public, does this look good

1646
01:16:11,960 --> 01:16:14,880
Speaker 2: for me? Simon Watts is the winner though, and by

1647
01:16:14,960 --> 01:16:17,439
Speaker 2: so far it doesn't matter. I was momentarily excited earlier

1648
01:16:17,439 --> 01:16:22,080
Speaker 2: on this morning with Nikola Griggs, Magnum of Pinin, WI, which,

1649
01:16:22,120 --> 01:16:24,559
Speaker 2: by the way, should point out Pegasus is in her electorate,

1650
01:16:24,680 --> 01:16:28,080
Speaker 2: so God bless her for supporting local business. Simon Watts

1651
01:16:28,720 --> 01:16:32,360
Speaker 2: spent three hundred and twenty two dollars I wish.

1652
01:16:32,160 --> 01:16:34,519
Speaker 13: I'd on a mobile generator no Ah.

1653
01:16:34,640 --> 01:16:36,960
Speaker 2: No, on his weekly powerbill.

1654
01:16:37,080 --> 01:16:37,120
Speaker 23: No.

1655
01:16:38,280 --> 01:16:40,200
Speaker 2: I so wish I knew this information. I had him

1656
01:16:40,200 --> 01:16:42,080
Speaker 2: on earlier on today, three hundred and twenty two dollars

1657
01:16:42,200 --> 01:16:49,680
Speaker 2: on two flag spreaders for his ministerial office. Not just

1658
01:16:49,760 --> 01:16:54,160
Speaker 2: one flag spreader, but two flag spreaders, which indicates to

1659
01:16:54,240 --> 01:16:57,679
Speaker 2: me there's a shed load of flags in Simon Watt's office.

1660
01:16:59,080 --> 01:17:00,920
Speaker 2: Three hundred and twenty two, So basically, you're telling me

1661
01:17:00,960 --> 01:17:02,880
Speaker 2: there one hundred and fifty bucks of fleet spreader, which

1662
01:17:02,920 --> 01:17:04,960
Speaker 2: is not bad as long as they're locally made and

1663
01:17:05,000 --> 01:17:07,639
Speaker 2: not imported from team twenty ten minutes away from nine.

1664
01:17:07,880 --> 01:17:11,719
Speaker 1: International correspondence with ends and eye insurance. Peace of mind

1665
01:17:11,800 --> 01:17:13,080
Speaker 1: for New Zealand business.

1666
01:17:13,000 --> 01:17:13,960
Speaker 2: Mate Murray Olds is with it?

1667
01:17:14,080 --> 01:17:16,360
Speaker 9: How are you? Yeah, good morning, Mike.

1668
01:17:16,400 --> 01:17:20,160
Speaker 23: I'm reminded of that English MP was caught having taxpayers

1669
01:17:20,560 --> 01:17:21,519
Speaker 23: repair his moat.

1670
01:17:22,200 --> 01:17:24,840
Speaker 2: That's right, remember that, that's right exactly. Well, when your

1671
01:17:24,880 --> 01:17:26,840
Speaker 2: mote goes, as you well know, Murray, when your mote goes,

1672
01:17:26,880 --> 01:17:27,519
Speaker 2: you got to fix it.

1673
01:17:29,040 --> 01:17:29,200
Speaker 5: Now.

1674
01:17:29,720 --> 01:17:32,160
Speaker 2: I was watching the Senate Estimates, as I'm sure you

1675
01:17:32,320 --> 01:17:35,880
Speaker 2: were too, and did those guys in their uniforms from

1676
01:17:35,960 --> 01:17:38,400
Speaker 2: the Navy trying to explain how it took somebody and

1677
01:17:38,479 --> 01:17:40,680
Speaker 2: how to work out what was going on just over

1678
01:17:40,760 --> 01:17:41,519
Speaker 2: the way in the water.

1679
01:17:42,240 --> 01:17:44,600
Speaker 9: What are shambles? You know what? To remind me of,

1680
01:17:45,040 --> 01:17:47,879
Speaker 9: I did see. I didn't watch the Senate Estimates.

1681
01:17:47,920 --> 01:17:49,640
Speaker 23: I know you were trawling there, so I was going

1682
01:17:49,720 --> 01:17:52,519
Speaker 23: to rely on you for the information about this, the

1683
01:17:52,680 --> 01:17:54,200
Speaker 23: contemporaneous information.

1684
01:17:54,320 --> 01:17:56,760
Speaker 9: I did see the news though, and it looked like Dad's.

1685
01:17:56,520 --> 01:17:59,360
Speaker 23: Army this captain mannering at Corporal Jones and was just

1686
01:18:00,360 --> 01:18:03,439
Speaker 23: just as shambles. There's three Chinese warships sailing on the

1687
01:18:03,479 --> 01:18:08,200
Speaker 23: coast opening fire. But it took a Virgin Airlines captain

1688
01:18:08,880 --> 01:18:11,960
Speaker 23: flying past alert people. Oh excuse me, they're popping off

1689
01:18:12,400 --> 01:18:13,200
Speaker 23: shells down there.

1690
01:18:14,479 --> 01:18:15,240
Speaker 9: The very funny.

1691
01:18:15,360 --> 01:18:18,799
Speaker 23: Uh, there's an outfit over here called the Batuta Advocate.

1692
01:18:18,960 --> 01:18:22,200
Speaker 23: It's a it's a spoof newspaper and it said the

1693
01:18:22,280 --> 01:18:26,080
Speaker 23: New Zealand Navy deployed it's blow up canoe and two

1694
01:18:26,280 --> 01:18:28,800
Speaker 23: stout and trippid sailors. They rode out in the middle

1695
01:18:28,840 --> 01:18:31,640
Speaker 23: of the taskma to alert the Australians. I mean, it's

1696
01:18:31,720 --> 01:18:34,400
Speaker 23: just well, what's going on? Are the Chinese going to

1697
01:18:34,520 --> 01:18:36,400
Speaker 23: warn us when they when they come down here and

1698
01:18:36,439 --> 01:18:37,400
Speaker 23: start letting off stuff?

1699
01:18:37,439 --> 01:18:37,760
Speaker 6: For real?

1700
01:18:37,880 --> 01:18:40,120
Speaker 9: Are they going to warn us? Are they? I mean,

1701
01:18:40,160 --> 01:18:42,599
Speaker 9: what the hell are they doing in Canberra or in Wellingcoln.

1702
01:18:42,600 --> 01:18:43,439
Speaker 9: What's going on now?

1703
01:18:43,479 --> 01:18:45,519
Speaker 2: It's a very good question. Was it males or charmers?

1704
01:18:45,560 --> 01:18:47,759
Speaker 2: I can't remember which one said? Ah, it's it's okay

1705
01:18:47,880 --> 01:18:49,320
Speaker 2: because it wasn't an urgent thing.

1706
01:18:49,439 --> 01:18:52,280
Speaker 9: It was just like, oh it was Miles, He's come

1707
01:18:52,320 --> 01:18:55,320
Speaker 9: out where's my quote here? The Defense minister.

1708
01:18:56,160 --> 01:18:59,040
Speaker 23: He was asked if the delay in getting notification indicated

1709
01:18:59,080 --> 01:19:02,160
Speaker 23: any flaws in the could he possibly comment on a

1710
01:19:02,240 --> 01:19:04,240
Speaker 23: possible inadequacy or not.

1711
01:19:04,600 --> 01:19:05,720
Speaker 9: No, there's nothing to see here.

1712
01:19:05,920 --> 01:19:08,439
Speaker 23: It's an example of how we've been able to surveil

1713
01:19:08,600 --> 01:19:11,880
Speaker 23: the Chinese warships. We've been watching them and we'll keep

1714
01:19:12,000 --> 01:19:15,000
Speaker 23: doing so until they leave. Well, gee whiz, I'm sleeping

1715
01:19:15,120 --> 01:19:18,280
Speaker 23: much more easy at night knowing that Richard Marles is

1716
01:19:18,320 --> 01:19:18,800
Speaker 23: on the case.

1717
01:19:18,960 --> 01:19:21,400
Speaker 2: How far down through the Northern Territory do you reckon

1718
01:19:21,479 --> 01:19:24,439
Speaker 2: they'd get if they were good?

1719
01:19:24,600 --> 01:19:27,840
Speaker 9: I mean, it's I mean, here's the thing. They don't

1720
01:19:27,920 --> 01:19:28,920
Speaker 9: need the Northern Territory.

1721
01:19:28,920 --> 01:19:31,040
Speaker 23: All go to do is knock out communications in Sydney

1722
01:19:31,080 --> 01:19:32,080
Speaker 23: and Melbourne and Brisbane.

1723
01:19:32,160 --> 01:19:32,840
Speaker 9: And we bug it.

1724
01:19:33,000 --> 01:19:35,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, we've got a bit of weed. We I

1725
01:19:35,760 --> 01:19:38,200
Speaker 2: must say we got. It's it's interesting to watch the

1726
01:19:38,200 --> 01:19:40,360
Speaker 2: whole change of the world and Starmers and Washington as

1727
01:19:40,400 --> 01:19:43,040
Speaker 2: we speak, and he bumped his defense spending and you

1728
01:19:43,120 --> 01:19:45,400
Speaker 2: guys are looking at the same thing, and it's it's

1729
01:19:45,680 --> 01:19:47,600
Speaker 2: interesting how the world has changed, hasn't it all of us?

1730
01:19:47,840 --> 01:19:49,760
Speaker 2: Because we've got nothing. Of course, you at least have

1731
01:19:49,840 --> 01:19:52,360
Speaker 2: a navy. We've got next to nothing, and we've got

1732
01:19:52,400 --> 01:19:54,880
Speaker 2: a couple of little, you know, aeronautical things that we

1733
01:19:54,960 --> 01:19:57,479
Speaker 2: send up periodically. But we've got to wake up call

1734
01:19:57,520 --> 01:20:01,080
Speaker 2: on this actually speaking which quantas are they back in

1735
01:20:01,120 --> 01:20:02,760
Speaker 2: a big way? Because that was a reasonable profit all

1736
01:20:02,760 --> 01:20:04,920
Speaker 2: things considered, isn't it one hundre percent?

1737
01:20:05,000 --> 01:20:07,439
Speaker 23: Absolutely? You got rid of Ellen Joyce, got the brand

1738
01:20:07,479 --> 01:20:10,160
Speaker 23: new female and much was made of the fact that

1739
01:20:10,240 --> 01:20:12,640
Speaker 23: Vanessa Hudson's in charge all the first female boss of

1740
01:20:12,720 --> 01:20:15,080
Speaker 23: quadis well, what a job she's done on the back

1741
01:20:15,120 --> 01:20:18,400
Speaker 23: of that Alan Joyce she was. It's the first there

1742
01:20:18,439 --> 01:20:21,599
Speaker 23: were half year profit. There was one point four billion

1743
01:20:21,640 --> 01:20:25,479
Speaker 23: dollars before tax, after tax, nine hundred and twenty million dollars,

1744
01:20:25,960 --> 01:20:30,800
Speaker 23: customers up by ten percent, Domestic airfares strong, and of

1745
01:20:30,920 --> 01:20:33,639
Speaker 23: course price is strong as well, so a nice divit

1746
01:20:33,680 --> 01:20:37,400
Speaker 23: into for shareholders. It's the first since covid mic, the

1747
01:20:37,479 --> 01:20:40,160
Speaker 23: first profit in six years. The share price shot up

1748
01:20:40,200 --> 01:20:43,400
Speaker 23: by seven point one percent. And as I say, Jet

1749
01:20:43,479 --> 01:20:48,080
Speaker 23: started pretty well, domestic travels strong, international travel still coming back.

1750
01:20:48,160 --> 01:20:51,920
Speaker 23: But I think it's fair thats pardon me, it's fair

1751
01:20:51,960 --> 01:20:53,720
Speaker 23: to say that Quantis does ever spring in its step,

1752
01:20:53,760 --> 01:20:54,920
Speaker 23: but it didn't have twenty four hours.

1753
01:20:55,080 --> 01:20:57,560
Speaker 2: They still got the reputational issues that every Australian I

1754
01:20:57,640 --> 01:20:58,280
Speaker 2: know hates them.

1755
01:21:01,200 --> 01:21:03,760
Speaker 23: Yeah, that's probably a bit strong. The fact of the

1756
01:21:03,840 --> 01:21:05,760
Speaker 23: matter is, once upon a time, Connus was the only

1757
01:21:05,840 --> 01:21:08,640
Speaker 23: game in town. Now there's probably twenty international carriers we

1758
01:21:08,680 --> 01:21:11,439
Speaker 23: can choose from, and it's only a simple question of

1759
01:21:11,520 --> 01:21:15,080
Speaker 23: hopping online. And you just you know, I mean, more

1760
01:21:15,120 --> 01:21:18,559
Speaker 23: people are shopping for price point right, and you want

1761
01:21:18,560 --> 01:21:19,160
Speaker 23: to go to London.

1762
01:21:19,240 --> 01:21:20,559
Speaker 9: You can get to London for twelve.

1763
01:21:20,360 --> 01:21:23,200
Speaker 23: Hundred bucks return on some carries, and you're really going

1764
01:21:23,280 --> 01:21:25,599
Speaker 23: to go with Quantus with three thousand bucks? No, I'd

1765
01:21:25,680 --> 01:21:28,000
Speaker 23: rather have the extra cash to spend in the pubs

1766
01:21:28,040 --> 01:21:29,680
Speaker 23: in London. We'll get you at least three beers and

1767
01:21:29,760 --> 01:21:33,640
Speaker 23: it bangers and mash. God, London's expensive.

1768
01:21:33,280 --> 01:21:33,560
Speaker 9: Isn't it?

1769
01:21:33,760 --> 01:21:33,800
Speaker 5: Just?

1770
01:21:34,120 --> 01:21:37,559
Speaker 2: I know when I was at the club, I thought

1771
01:21:37,560 --> 01:21:39,839
Speaker 2: it was the Gun and Tonics.

1772
01:21:40,120 --> 01:21:45,919
Speaker 9: What happened? And the monical polishing service is finished? Dreadful, horrible?

1773
01:21:47,160 --> 01:21:49,320
Speaker 2: What I didn't like this week? I'm assuming you read

1774
01:21:49,360 --> 01:21:50,720
Speaker 2: it in the Sydney Morning here all. I don't know

1775
01:21:50,760 --> 01:21:52,680
Speaker 2: what the matter with some of them. I'm assuming to

1776
01:21:52,720 --> 01:21:54,679
Speaker 2: them that ran it. This dustn't thing with this housing.

1777
01:21:55,240 --> 01:21:57,559
Speaker 2: So Dunton over the years, and it is over many

1778
01:21:57,640 --> 01:21:59,560
Speaker 2: many years, it's twenty or thirty years, has owned a

1779
01:21:59,560 --> 01:22:01,640
Speaker 2: lot of how and he's bought and sold houses and

1780
01:22:01,720 --> 01:22:05,120
Speaker 2: he's got some in a trust where I may a culprit.

1781
01:22:05,200 --> 01:22:07,960
Speaker 2: Fair Enough, he didn't supply some of the paperwork in

1782
01:22:08,040 --> 01:22:10,679
Speaker 2: the early part of the two thousands properly, so fair enough,

1783
01:22:10,720 --> 01:22:13,480
Speaker 2: I get that, But there seemed to be this overarching

1784
01:22:14,680 --> 01:22:17,720
Speaker 2: just because he's done well, somehow he's no longer fit

1785
01:22:17,840 --> 01:22:19,679
Speaker 2: to be prime minister because he might have a few

1786
01:22:19,760 --> 01:22:21,320
Speaker 2: dollars And I can't stand that.

1787
01:22:22,560 --> 01:22:26,040
Speaker 23: Yeah, it's ridiculous. I mean, here's somebody who you know

1788
01:22:26,200 --> 01:22:28,920
Speaker 23: he's made a quid. He wasn't born with a silver

1789
01:22:29,000 --> 01:22:31,400
Speaker 23: spoon in his mouth. He was a Queensland copper, bought

1790
01:22:31,439 --> 01:22:34,160
Speaker 23: his first house with his dad when he left school.

1791
01:22:34,960 --> 01:22:36,479
Speaker 23: And back in the day it wouldn't have been that

1792
01:22:36,600 --> 01:22:38,800
Speaker 23: expensive if dad had a few bucks set aside. What

1793
01:22:39,000 --> 01:22:41,600
Speaker 23: better way to set your son up to make a

1794
01:22:41,640 --> 01:22:44,040
Speaker 23: few quid in the real estate market. So these days

1795
01:22:44,080 --> 01:22:46,680
Speaker 23: he's a multi multi, multi millionaire.

1796
01:22:46,320 --> 01:22:47,040
Speaker 9: But big deal.

1797
01:22:47,560 --> 01:22:49,559
Speaker 23: So it was Turnbull. He was worth seventy or eighty

1798
01:22:49,600 --> 01:22:51,960
Speaker 23: million dollars? Are you going to knock him out of

1799
01:22:52,360 --> 01:22:54,600
Speaker 23: serving the country because of that? I would rather have

1800
01:22:54,720 --> 01:22:56,439
Speaker 23: someone who's actually achieved stuff, wouldn't you.

1801
01:22:56,600 --> 01:22:58,760
Speaker 2: I couldn't agree more. We had a prime minister where

1802
01:22:58,760 --> 01:23:00,280
Speaker 2: we had a prime Minster. We have a prime minister

1803
01:23:00,640 --> 01:23:04,519
Speaker 2: who's moderately wealthy, and he may have come in a

1804
01:23:04,520 --> 01:23:06,360
Speaker 2: couple of months ago. He goes, they were talking about

1805
01:23:06,360 --> 01:23:08,760
Speaker 2: the cost of living. He goes, you know, his wealth

1806
01:23:08,800 --> 01:23:10,880
Speaker 2: came up and he goes, look I'm sorted, I get it.

1807
01:23:10,960 --> 01:23:13,759
Speaker 2: And everyone sort of jumped on him as though somehow

1808
01:23:14,000 --> 01:23:17,160
Speaker 2: by being successful you're no longer qualify to be prime minister.

1809
01:23:17,320 --> 01:23:21,000
Speaker 2: And yet others like Turnbull seem to get away with it,

1810
01:23:21,080 --> 01:23:23,599
Speaker 2: didn't they. I mean, it was just accepted he was wealthy,

1811
01:23:23,640 --> 01:23:25,719
Speaker 2: and no one seemed to bother. It seems to depend

1812
01:23:25,800 --> 01:23:26,320
Speaker 2: on who you are.

1813
01:23:27,200 --> 01:23:29,639
Speaker 9: Well, yeah, look there's a fair bit of that. Don't forget.

1814
01:23:29,960 --> 01:23:32,479
Speaker 9: You'd never see that story in the Murdoch Press. Over here.

1815
01:23:32,920 --> 01:23:34,439
Speaker 9: I have dear Dunton have a few quid.

1816
01:23:34,640 --> 01:23:37,760
Speaker 23: Yeah that that Stys busy pumping Dutton's tires up for

1817
01:23:37,840 --> 01:23:40,479
Speaker 23: all it's worth. But I mean, look, the fact of

1818
01:23:40,520 --> 01:23:43,040
Speaker 23: the matter is both sides out of here have dirt

1819
01:23:43,160 --> 01:23:46,599
Speaker 23: units operating behind the scenes that are trawling through everything,

1820
01:23:46,680 --> 01:23:50,280
Speaker 23: every email, every old letter, every invoice, every bank account

1821
01:23:50,320 --> 01:23:52,960
Speaker 23: they can get their sticky little paws on, and they're

1822
01:23:53,000 --> 01:23:55,920
Speaker 23: bringing up this dirt, these dirt files, and both sides

1823
01:23:55,960 --> 01:23:57,479
Speaker 23: are producing them. They're going to see a whole lot

1824
01:23:57,520 --> 01:23:59,960
Speaker 23: more between now an election day. And it wouldn't surprise

1825
01:24:00,280 --> 01:24:03,880
Speaker 23: Mike either this weekend to see the Prime Minister Anthony

1826
01:24:03,920 --> 01:24:09,799
Speaker 23: Elbaneasy drive out along the driveway Yara Lumla in Canberra

1827
01:24:10,080 --> 01:24:12,879
Speaker 23: name to the Governor General to call the election.

1828
01:24:12,720 --> 01:24:13,840
Speaker 2: Because I was going to say, I was going to

1829
01:24:13,840 --> 01:24:15,920
Speaker 2: ask you that very question. Because they're talking April five

1830
01:24:16,040 --> 01:24:17,679
Speaker 2: or twelve. He's got to get on with it because

1831
01:24:17,680 --> 01:24:19,240
Speaker 2: I mean, that's only a six week campaign.

1832
01:24:20,160 --> 01:24:22,920
Speaker 23: You've got to have thirty three days under the constitution

1833
01:24:23,080 --> 01:24:26,400
Speaker 23: between calling the election and the election date. That's the minimum.

1834
01:24:26,720 --> 01:24:29,439
Speaker 23: So you're right, the calendar does indicate that it's going

1835
01:24:29,520 --> 01:24:31,560

1846

Speaker 2: back in the middle of the GFC. Yeah, no, no, no,

1847
01:24:58,720 --> 01:25:00,559
Speaker 2: I get all that I had. I don't think that's

1848
01:25:00,560 --> 01:25:03,120
Speaker 2: a big diggal either. And funnily enough, he didn't actually

1849
01:25:03,200 --> 01:25:05,040
Speaker 2: make He owned a lot of properties over the years

1850
01:25:05,080 --> 01:25:07,200
Speaker 2: with his father and a family trust, and there was

1851
01:25:07,240 --> 01:25:10,560
Speaker 2: something like thirty properties over twenty ish years, and he

1852
01:25:10,680 --> 01:25:12,639
Speaker 2: made over that period of time in terms of profit,

1853
01:25:12,680 --> 01:25:14,800
Speaker 2: about six million dollars, which if you divide six million

1854
01:25:14,800 --> 01:25:17,040
Speaker 2: dollars by twenty years, it's about two hundred fifty thousand

1855
01:25:17,040 --> 01:25:18,800
Speaker 2: dollars a year, So it's not actually that much money.

1856

Speaker 7: Mike.

1857
01:25:19,760 --> 01:25:21,400
Speaker 2: Would you rather have a PM who knows how to

1858
01:25:21,520 --> 01:25:24,320
Speaker 2: do stuff or some left wing looney who's so inconfident

1859
01:25:24,400 --> 01:25:26,360
Speaker 2: caun't rub two cents together. I tend to agree. It's

1860
01:25:26,360 --> 01:25:28,040
Speaker 2: not my issue. I mean, it's just that people get

1861
01:25:28,120 --> 01:25:31,080
Speaker 2: exercised about Luxon. The only reason I raised Luxen and

1862
01:25:31,160 --> 01:25:34,320
Speaker 2: the Dutton issue was because I was reading yesterday about

1863
01:25:34,400 --> 01:25:37,680
Speaker 2: John Key, who was I mean, we all seemed he's

1864
01:25:37,760 --> 01:25:40,479
Speaker 2: worth many times more than Luxner's and we never seemed

1865
01:25:40,479 --> 01:25:42,479
Speaker 2: to bother by it, were bothered at all by it,

1866
01:25:43,160 --> 01:25:45,439
Speaker 2: and we knew he was wealthy, but we didn't seem

1867
01:25:45,479 --> 01:25:46,479
Speaker 2: to make a thing of it. And news in the

1868
01:25:46,520 --> 01:25:49,240
Speaker 2: paper yesterday talking about his brand new helicopter, so good,

1869
01:25:49,280 --> 01:25:51,040
Speaker 2: God bless him for having a brand new helicopter, and

1870
01:25:51,080 --> 01:25:53,040
Speaker 2: I would too, because, quite frankly, his first one was

1871
01:25:53,120 --> 01:25:56,120
Speaker 2: rudez little gumby one million dollar thing that looked like

1872
01:25:56,200 --> 01:25:58,040
Speaker 2: it was going to fall out of the sky. But anyway,

1873
01:25:58,080 --> 01:26:00,240
Speaker 2: so he's gone and bought a proper helicopter and H

1874
01:26:00,280 --> 01:26:03,880
Speaker 2: one thirty, which is a beautiful helicopter. But no one goes, ah, yeah,

1875
01:26:04,240 --> 01:26:06,880
Speaker 2: ratch prack, did they? So if Luxon came on this

1876
01:26:07,000 --> 01:26:09,400
Speaker 2: program and went, I'll tell you what, I've been flat

1877
01:26:09,439 --> 01:26:11,439
Speaker 2: out just back from Vietnam, couldn't wait to get back

1878
01:26:11,479 --> 01:26:13,400
Speaker 2: and get him the helicopter. Oh, I bought a helicopter

1879
01:26:13,439 --> 01:26:15,040
Speaker 2: the other day. If he said that we'd go mental,

1880
01:26:15,080 --> 01:26:19,680
Speaker 2: wouldn't we We'd go what ratch Prack's it seems to.

1881
01:26:19,760 --> 01:26:21,760
Speaker 13: Be if he was using the helicopter instead of the

1882
01:26:21,960 --> 01:26:25,559
Speaker 13: air force plane. Yeah, maybe, very good point.

1883
01:26:26,040 --> 01:26:28,679
Speaker 2: By the way, speaking of money banks, so I see

1884
01:26:28,760 --> 01:26:32,200
Speaker 2: competition here, right, And for all of Nikola Willis's problems

1885
01:26:32,200 --> 01:26:34,960
Speaker 2: about lack of competition and banking, I see competition kiwibank

1886
01:26:35,439 --> 01:26:37,599
Speaker 2: at the moment they announced their run profit yesterday, their

1887
01:26:37,640 --> 01:26:39,439
Speaker 2: profits down a little bit, but not bad. They see

1888
01:26:39,479 --> 01:26:41,240
Speaker 2: better times ahead. In the latter part of the year.

1889
01:26:41,240 --> 01:26:43,080
Speaker 2: They've been increasing the lending at double the rate of

1890
01:26:43,160 --> 01:26:46,360
Speaker 2: other banks. Deposits grew at one point six times fastest.

1891
01:26:46,360 --> 01:26:50,160
Speaker 2: So they're doing business. That's competition, right then, yesterday SBS

1892
01:26:50,960 --> 01:26:54,839
Speaker 2: four point three nine percent for first time buys, lowest

1893
01:26:54,960 --> 01:26:57,600
Speaker 2: in the market four point three nine. Everyone else the

1894
01:26:57,640 --> 01:27:00,360
Speaker 2: major bank's four nine to nine. And so everyone's going, oh,

1895
01:27:00,400 --> 01:27:02,960
Speaker 2: it's not acceptable the way the major banks are behaving, right, fine,

1896
01:27:03,040 --> 01:27:05,679
Speaker 2: go somewhere else. Well where can you go? SBS four

1897
01:27:05,720 --> 01:27:07,680
Speaker 2: point three to nine? Why are you taking four nine

1898
01:27:07,680 --> 01:27:09,000
Speaker 2: to nine with US four three nine If you're a

1899
01:27:09,040 --> 01:27:12,280
Speaker 2: first owned buyer. That indicates to me for all the

1900
01:27:12,360 --> 01:27:15,479
Speaker 2: aanks to around banks that there is actually competition and

1901
01:27:15,520 --> 01:27:18,040
Speaker 2: they're out there competing. And if you look at Kiwibank's numbers,

1902
01:27:18,360 --> 01:27:20,439
Speaker 2: people are prepared to move banks. So do we actually

1903
01:27:20,479 --> 01:27:22,559
Speaker 2: have an issue or not? Eight away from nine.
