I've had lots 46 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 2: of messages from people actually after watching that Winston Peters 47 00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:41,160 Speaker 2: clip saying, gee, I'm proud of Winston because he's sort 48 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:42,960 Speaker 2: of like I mean, we wouldn't compare it to the 49 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:45,960 Speaker 2: David Longey Oxford Union speech for me, but he's sort 50 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 2: of taking them on and just don't know how many people. 51 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:51,960 Speaker 2: We couldn't see the camera, couldn't tell you who else 52 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:53,960 Speaker 2: was talking while he was talking. But it is rude 53 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 2: to talk while someone else is talking, isn't it. So 54 00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 2: there you go. We're proud of Winston Peters for standing 55 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:01,840 Speaker 2: up to Theecurity Council, to the chit chat at the 56 00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:04,639 Speaker 2: Security Council. It has just gone on nine minutes after 57 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 2: five year. On News Talk said be we're going to 58 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:10,960 Speaker 2: talk teachers' unions. Do they annoy you? I think they 59 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 2: do the teachers a disservice. And the reason I say 60 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:17,400 Speaker 2: that is every time the government does something, they just 61 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 2: oppose it, no matter whether it's more funding. Remember they 62 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 2: gave them more funding a couple of weeks ago, and 63 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:26,120 Speaker 2: the unions came out and said, nah, it's what this 64 00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:31,919 Speaker 2: is what you're supposed to be fighting for. Anyway. The 65 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 2: latest changes is to do with truancy and to do 66 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 2: with teacher only days. And on the teacher only days, 67 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 2: they've said the government has said do them in the holidays, 68 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:45,480 Speaker 2: fair enough, don't do them during term time, and some 69 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:47,720 Speaker 2: teachers have come out and said, well, that's undermining our 70 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 2: profession really, And on what difference will a couple of 71 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 2: days teacher only days make to the students learning? That 72 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 2: is the very attitude that the students have, Oh, what 73 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:00,280 Speaker 2: does it matter if I take a day or two off, 74 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:02,200 Speaker 2: or that the parents have. What doesn't matter if I 75 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:04,000 Speaker 2: take a day or two off and go to Queenstown 76 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:06,360 Speaker 2: or go to Fiji, or just not send my kids 77 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 2: to school, whatever the reason might be. Isn't that the 78 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 2: very attitude that has got us into this mess in 79 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 2: the first place? Because attendance rates are pretty dismal. Nine 80 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:18,720 Speaker 2: two nine two is the number to text. I'd love 81 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:20,240 Speaker 2: to keep your views on that. This morning, we are 82 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:23,600 Speaker 2: gonna speak to Linda Stewart from may Road Primary. This 83 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:27,080 Speaker 2: is a principal from west Auckland. She's got a lot 84 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 2: to say about it. Just before six, just gone ten 85 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:29,760 Speaker 2: after five. 86 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,360 Speaker 1: Ryan Bridge somewhat. 87 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:38,279 Speaker 2: Also this morning, Elliott Smith News Talk, zibbi's Voice of Rugby. 88 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 2: He will be with us from Wellington. Apparently there's some 89 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:44,920 Speaker 2: flight disruptions yesterday. Bit of wind, not surprising because it's Wellington. 90 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 2: New numbers out this morning on the number of kiwis 91 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 2: who are considering taking a second job. Not surprising. You 92 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 2: basically need it because income right, cost of living. The number, though, 93 00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:00,159 Speaker 2: is quite interesting. We'd love to hear from it. One 94 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:02,039 Speaker 2: who's got a second job? Nine two, nine and two. 95 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:04,039 Speaker 2: How many jobs do you have? I've got a friend 96 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:07,120 Speaker 2: who's got three jobs. How do you even keep up 97 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 2: with that? Colleagues barely know him. He's a ghost at 98 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 2: all three jobs. But there you go, he's got three jobs. 99 00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:15,359 Speaker 2: Eleven minutes after five, you're on news Talk, said b. 100 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 1: M Imply the times shame the news you need this 101 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 1: morning and the in depth analysis early edition with Ryan 102 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 1: Bridge and Swift City, New Zealand's furniture beds and applying store. 103 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:33,080 Speaker 2: News Talk said be thirteen after five. These teacher only days. 104 00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 2: This is from one of our listeners this morning, Ryan, 105 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,520 Speaker 2: These teacher only days. Are so difficult to handle with 106 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 2: both parents working. The term holidays are hard enough. Definitely 107 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,479 Speaker 2: have your teacher only days during the breaks, Ryan, I 108 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:49,599 Speaker 2: have to wonder if the yeah, this is talking about 109 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:51,920 Speaker 2: something completely different but which we will get to, and 110 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 2: that is having a second job. There are new numbers 111 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:55,839 Speaker 2: out this morning. In fact, I can tell you what 112 00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:57,760 Speaker 2: they are right now. So forty nine percent of KIBI 113 00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 2: workers are considering taking on a second job in the 114 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:04,080 Speaker 2: next twelve months. Most of those is basically because you 115 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 2: need more money and others. Thirty two percent said it 116 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:11,680 Speaker 2: was to provide extra funds for discretionary spending. So you 117 00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 2: want to go to the movies, you need a second job. Basically, 118 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 2: I have a second job, and I had to sort 119 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 2: of arrange it before I got here in order that 120 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 2: it would happen. I think because it's harder once you're 121 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 2: in a job and you want to do some little 122 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:27,200 Speaker 2: side hustle or whatever, it's kind of harder to do it. 123 00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:29,120 Speaker 2: So if you can do it before you arrived, then 124 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:33,360 Speaker 2: all power to you. Anyway, Fifty six percent believe their 125 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 2: employer would be supportive of them taking on a second job. 126 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:42,840 Speaker 2: Elsewhere fourteen after five Brian bridge. A storm could be brewing, 127 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:45,520 Speaker 2: as the government has agreed in principle to merge Kneewhere 128 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:49,279 Speaker 2: and met Service to bring us a stronger weather forecasting system. 129 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 2: Merging the two it's been a big topic of conversation 130 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 2: after it was found that Met Service modeling failed to 131 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 2: predict the scale and the intensity of the Auckland Anniversary 132 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:02,080 Speaker 2: weekend floods. The plan would see ne Ware acquire met Service, 133 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:06,000 Speaker 2: with met Service keeping its role as out authorized meteorologist. 134 00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 2: Philip Duncan is a weather watch head analyst and with 135 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:13,440 Speaker 2: a communicator. He's with us this morning. Hey Philip, good morning, 136 00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:14,880 Speaker 2: Good to heo with you. Good to have you on 137 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 2: the show. Will these two be able to get along 138 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:18,960 Speaker 2: and play nice? Do you think? 139 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 7: Well? I mean they're going to have to. That decision 140 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 7: has already been made and it's going to be a 141 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 7: bit of a toughs ride, I think to some of 142 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 7: the Met Service team, because it's probably a little bit 143 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 7: deflating to be merged into a brand new weather forecasting 144 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 7: company that sort of started to aggressively attack you about 145 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 7: ten years ago, which is what NIWA did and nie 146 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:45,240 Speaker 7: were invested a lot of money into going after Met Service. 147 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 7: And they had no approval from cabinet to do this. 148 00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 7: It was done sort of secretly and with no transparency. 149 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 7: So it's a bit of a weird journey to get 150 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 7: to this point, but the government has definitely done the 151 00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:00,640 Speaker 7: right thing because for a government to have two opposing 152 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:05,680 Speaker 7: agencies doing weather forecasts and saying different things is a 153 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 7: recipe for a disaster. 154 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:10,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, and we had one, didn't we what's it? 155 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 4: Yeah? 156 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 2: Is it fair to say that met Service missed that 157 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:15,440 Speaker 2: Auckland Anniversary flood? I mean, wasn't that such a freak 158 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:17,720 Speaker 2: event that no one really knew it was coming? Did you? 159 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 7: Absolutely? Yeah, the Auckland flood event was a basically a downpour, 160 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:25,800 Speaker 7: just an isolated downpour, but it was over the top 161 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 7: of our largest city. But you ask farmers around New Zealand, 162 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 7: have you ever had a downpour that's you know, done 163 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:33,839 Speaker 7: monumentally a big flooding, And a lot of them will 164 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:35,720 Speaker 7: say yes at some point, not to say that that 165 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:38,760 Speaker 7: was equal to everyone else, but you know, it was 166 00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:41,319 Speaker 7: a singular downpour. There was no computer modeling on the 167 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:44,920 Speaker 7: planet that picked what actually happened, and so it was 168 00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 7: it was a tough ride, but it is a good 169 00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:49,840 Speaker 7: example of what is happening here. You got me were 170 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 7: with this supercomputer that is paid for by the people, 171 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 7: and then you've got met service. The weather forecast is 172 00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 7: funded by the people to do warnings, but they don't 173 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:02,160 Speaker 7: share the equipment. And so you're one side saying I 174 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:05,319 Speaker 7: can see something happening, and then when you say, well, 175 00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:07,000 Speaker 7: will you be sharing that with that service and me, 176 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 7: we goes no. For commercial reasons, we're not going to. 177 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:12,959 Speaker 2: And that's the problem that's done. Where do you get 178 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 2: you because you're a private business, right Philip, where do 179 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:17,200 Speaker 2: you get your data from? Is it from? Do you 180 00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:19,319 Speaker 2: buy it from Kneewa or someone? 181 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 7: We couldn't afford it in that that's the reason why 182 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:23,440 Speaker 7: this is a bit of a concern. We went to 183 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:27,240 Speaker 7: the Commerce Commission about Meware because their pricing was astronomical. 184 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:30,679 Speaker 7: We're talking about millions of dollars to access something that's 185 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:34,559 Speaker 7: free in every other modern country, and so it it's 186 00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 7: designed to keep NIEWA in power. The one positive about this, well, 187 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,959 Speaker 7: so to answer your question, we were forced to basically 188 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 7: buy data from America. Now that there are two different 189 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 7: things with weather forecasting. One is the actual forecasting data 190 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 7: so the data we buy from the weather Company, which 191 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:54,960 Speaker 7: used to be IBM, it's the most accurate in the world. 192 00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:57,840 Speaker 7: So you know, the fact that we were forced to 193 00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 7: go down that road, that that route and end with 194 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,080 Speaker 7: that data's turned out to be the best thing for us. 195 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 7: But the downside is we don't have access to historical 196 00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:09,080 Speaker 7: data and that means no one in New Zealand really 197 00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 7: learns as a forecast. We don't learn from our mistakes 198 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 7: automatically because that data is missing. Yeah, so in Australia, 199 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 7: get something wrong, the computers will go all right, that's 200 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:21,559 Speaker 7: what happened, this is what we forecast. Let's learn from 201 00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:24,000 Speaker 7: that mistake. But in New Zealand, me will holds on 202 00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:26,320 Speaker 7: to that information and says you can't have it, so 203 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 7: met Service doesn't learn from it. And then met Service 204 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:31,240 Speaker 7: doesn't share the radar, so newa doesn't learn from that. 205 00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:34,720 Speaker 7: And so as a private company, we've just decided to 206 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:36,800 Speaker 7: just say basically we're not going to get involved in 207 00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 7: that historical stuff. We'll just focus on forecasting only. 208 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:41,960 Speaker 2: Well, that can't be a good thing for the rest 209 00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:43,600 Speaker 2: of us. Philip, thank you very much for that. That's 210 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 2: Philip Duncan, who's a weather watchhead analyst and weather communicator 211 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:49,920 Speaker 2: talking about this merger that is going to happen between 212 00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:53,320 Speaker 2: met Service and NEWA sounds like it about time it 213 00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:55,839 Speaker 2: did happen too. Lots of feedback on the teacher issue 214 00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 2: run I'm a teacher and teacher only days are needed 215 00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:03,240 Speaker 2: for professional development. It is often very much required. The 216 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:08,320 Speaker 2: PD opportunities often fall outside of school holidays, says aident. 217 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 2: Nine two nine two the number text with your messages 218 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 2: on that will have a principle. Just before six nineteen 219 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:14,640 Speaker 2: up to. 220 00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 1: Five the first word on the News of the Day 221 00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 1: early edition with Ryan Bridge and Smith City, New Zealand's 222 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 1: furniture beds and a player store news Talk. 223 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:26,440 Speaker 2: Said the I'm not saying I told you so because 224 00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:28,480 Speaker 2: it's annoying when people do that. But you know how 225 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:31,280 Speaker 2: I said that Karmala Harris would be better for New Zealand. 226 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:33,760 Speaker 2: New Zealand would be better off I Karmala Harris won 227 00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:37,240 Speaker 2: the US election? Are instead of Donald Trump? The Australians 228 00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:40,679 Speaker 2: have actually done a look at the potential economic implications. 229 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 2: They've taken a look under the hood. This is by 230 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:46,320 Speaker 2: Australian economists and former Reserve Bank Board member Warwick mckibbon. 231 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:50,760 Speaker 2: He says, because China will be hit by tariff's, Trump 232 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:53,960 Speaker 2: wants to meddle in the federal reserve rates decisions. He 233 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 2: said that would screw Australia and by extension US big time. 234 00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:01,079 Speaker 2: He reckons that by twenty two twenty six, it'd take 235 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 2: one percent off China's GDP and would take zero point 236 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:07,679 Speaker 2: two percent off the Australians. And you can imagine it 237 00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:10,000 Speaker 2: would do something similar to us. So as much as 238 00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:14,080 Speaker 2: you might hate or dislike or find annoying, Karmala Harris, 239 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:17,079 Speaker 2: she's probably the better option for us. Down here, twenty 240 00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 2: two after five. Bryan Bridge, Big game this weekend in Wellington, 241 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:24,719 Speaker 2: all Blacks Wallabies and there's been some bad weather. We're 242 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:27,559 Speaker 2: joined by news talks. There'd be rugby commentator, the voice 243 00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:31,120 Speaker 2: of rugby, Elliot Smith. Elliott, good morning, Good morning, Ryan. Hey, 244 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:33,840 Speaker 2: did flight's all right for you? I'm assuming you're in 245 00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 2: Wellington this morning. 246 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:37,360 Speaker 6: I am indeed no. We arrived in earlier on the 247 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:39,720 Speaker 6: week and so it's actually been quite good up until 248 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:42,199 Speaker 6: yesterday when it packed in big time and has been 249 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:45,440 Speaker 6: raining and windy and everything else that you associate with 250 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 6: bad days in the Capitol. But the good news is 251 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 6: that sexually supposed to be all right for the game 252 00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 6: itself tomorrow. We just have to get through a couple 253 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:54,599 Speaker 6: of days of bad weather in the build up to 254 00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:56,679 Speaker 6: kick off tomorrow night at seven o'clock. 255 00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:58,600 Speaker 2: So you've been the first time you've been there in 256 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 2: a little while. Does it look to you like everyone 257 00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 2: says Elliott, the city It does. 258 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:06,080 Speaker 6: Look it looks a lot quieter than it has in 259 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:08,720 Speaker 6: the past. And look at it is actually quite noticeable 260 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:10,560 Speaker 6: when you come in you go, oh, this isn't the 261 00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 6: sort of bustling sort of place that it was maybe 262 00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 6: even two or three years ago. And you know, this 263 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 6: sort of funky little capital that maybe it used to be. 264 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:25,120 Speaker 6: It is quite empty in the city and not quite 265 00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 6: the happening place it used to be. So you know, 266 00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:31,240 Speaker 6: maybe they'll get forty thousand and all thereabout them to 267 00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:33,760 Speaker 6: the rugby tomorrow night and the w'll revitalize things and 268 00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:34,880 Speaker 6: everyone will be happy. 269 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:36,800 Speaker 2: Yeah'd be good to see a crowd, mind it. Hey 270 00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:39,200 Speaker 2: there's two there's a Whodo and a Jinx. There's the 271 00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 2: twenty minute jinks, the last final twenty minutes of the game. 272 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:43,840 Speaker 2: We don't seem to be able to score any points. 273 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 2: And then there's the Wellington who do we haven't won 274 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:49,120 Speaker 2: any of the last six tests in Wellington. 275 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:51,680 Speaker 6: Yeah, there's a couple of things to sort out tomorrow 276 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:54,520 Speaker 6: night from an All Blacks perspectives and there from a 277 00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:58,160 Speaker 6: recent record, first and foremost has to be getting that 278 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:02,680 Speaker 6: twenty minute jinks it out, because this is becoming troublesome 279 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,200 Speaker 6: for the All Blacks. It's becoming a real issue for 280 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 6: them in games. They can see yellow cards and penalties 281 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:11,320 Speaker 6: and are drifting out of the games. Last week they 282 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 6: was still good enough to get the win against Australia, 283 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:16,120 Speaker 6: but they need to get that sorted out first and 284 00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 6: foremost and find some points in the last twenty and 285 00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:21,360 Speaker 6: there you would think if they get some points in 286 00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:23,800 Speaker 6: the last twenty that will mean that they get a 287 00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:27,120 Speaker 6: result and therefore lift that capital curse. Quite remarkable. They 288 00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:31,480 Speaker 6: haven't won here since twenty eighteen, a real run of 289 00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:33,800 Speaker 6: four results in that time, so they need to get 290 00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:36,600 Speaker 6: that sorted. Discipline is the key. They get that right. 291 00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:38,720 Speaker 6: They can get some points on the board and they'll 292 00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:41,080 Speaker 6: get things sorted. But for the fact that's having five 293 00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 6: games in a row now across the Rugby Championship. There's 294 00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:46,960 Speaker 6: nothing sort of remarkable. It's beginning to be talked about, 295 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:49,040 Speaker 6: beginning to be a rare issue for this all black steam. 296 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:51,040 Speaker 2: It sounds like it. Elliott, thank you for that. We 297 00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:53,600 Speaker 2: look forward to your commentary on Saturday night. Elliot Smith, 298 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:55,880 Speaker 2: News Talks, They'd be Rugby Commentator, the Voice of Rugby. 299 00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:58,200 Speaker 2: Twenty five after five, The. 300 00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 1: Early edition Full the show podcast, iHeartRadio powered by News. 301 00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 2: Talksb twenty seven after five You're on News Talks. There'b 302 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:10,920 Speaker 2: somebody's just text and Mark says, Ryan, bring back Fozzy. Hey, 303 00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:14,200 Speaker 2: Thank goodness. I'm so relieved, not only because it's Friday, 304 00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 2: but I'm also relieved because the UN General Assembly is 305 00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:21,520 Speaker 2: underway in New York. Nothing solves global conflict like a 306 00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:24,640 Speaker 2: good anger session. I've been to one of these before. 307 00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:27,560 Speaker 2: There's a lot of sitting around and talking and listening, 308 00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:30,640 Speaker 2: which is Winston Peter's pointed out yesterday is actually quite important. 309 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:34,560 Speaker 2: Netanyahu is en route, Zelenski is there, mart mudebas the 310 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:37,960 Speaker 2: Palestinian president, he's going put in. The Pariah obviously won't 311 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:41,000 Speaker 2: be there. But does anybody hold out any hope that 312 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:45,120 Speaker 2: the UN will fix the big issues will magically solve 313 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 2: all the walls and conflicts in the world. As we 314 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:51,640 Speaker 2: reported on yesterday's show, China's launching missiles into the South Pacific. 315 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:55,480 Speaker 2: A Japanese warship has just sailed through the Taiwan straight 316 00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:58,480 Speaker 2: for the first time ever. That's new this morning. Israel's 317 00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:02,120 Speaker 2: hammering Lebanon, not to mention Gaza, Putin's lowering the threshold 318 00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:06,040 Speaker 2: for nuclear weapons. Trump says Ukraine is dead, and delegates 319 00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:08,000 Speaker 2: are talking over the top of Winston Peters at the 320 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:09,240 Speaker 2: Security Council. 321 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:13,360 Speaker 8: Principle, when somebody's addressing you, the rest of the people 322 00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 8: in the room keep quiet. 323 00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 2: Some would say these challenges are ones that the world 324 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:24,800 Speaker 2: that we can all face together, united as one, united nations. 325 00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:27,920 Speaker 2: But most of the time, if we're being real about it, 326 00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:30,920 Speaker 2: it's about as useful as an ash tray on a motorbike. 327 00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 2: And most countries and their leaders know this, but off 328 00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:36,840 Speaker 2: they go off to the Big Apple to do their dance, 329 00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 2: to thump their fists, have their say. Well, the rest 330 00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:45,520 Speaker 2: of the world largely ignores and carries on business as usual. 331 00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:50,040 Speaker 2: Bread Rich twenty eight. After five, We're going to talk 332 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:53,040 Speaker 2: teachers and a second loads of feedback on that today 333 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:54,800 Speaker 2: is not the day to have a heart attack. Please 334 00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:57,520 Speaker 2: Monday as well. The reason I say this the first 335 00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:02,200 Speaker 2: union is striking.

Interestingly, it was accompanied by a 477 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:33,719 Speaker 2: New Zealand and Australian naval vessel, so two naval vessels, 478 00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:36,480 Speaker 2: one from US one from across the Tasman.

Didn't mention the fact quite a 485 00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:59,639 Speaker 2: crucial fact. You would have thought that we were joined 486 00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:00,600 Speaker 2: by the Japanese. 487 00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:05,359 Speaker 1: Fourteen to six international correspondents with ins inn Eye Insurance 488 00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:07,200 Speaker 1: Peace of Mind for New Zealand. 489 00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:10,800 Speaker 2: Business Limited MCAVINI are UK and europe correspondents with US 490 00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:16,320 Speaker 2: UK police looking at former Herod's employees over the Alpha 491 00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:18,680 Speaker 2: Yid criminal charges.

Now it's understood 506 00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:07,199 Speaker 12: that some of these individuals have been approached by the media. 507 00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:09,719 Speaker 12: They are denying any knowledge of what was going on, 508 00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:12,080 Speaker 12: but from the accounts of some of the women, that 509 00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:15,520 Speaker 12: does not seem to be accurate. So the Metropolitan Police 510 00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:18,240 Speaker 12: we understand and now looking into whether anyone's still alive 511 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:21,960 Speaker 12: who worked for mister fay Ed or indeed four Herods 512 00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:25,440 Speaker 12: or the doctor involved could now be prosecuted in conjunction 513 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:25,840 Speaker 12: with this. 514 00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:29,880 Speaker 2: Right, the Elon Musk, the boss of everything. He's upset 515 00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:33,040 Speaker 2: at the UK government. Yeah, that's right. 516 00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:36,159 Speaker 12: The UK Investment Meeting, which is taking place in a 517 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:38,119 Speaker 12: few weeks time, is bringing in some of the biggest 518 00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:40,960 Speaker 12: names in business and tech, but Elon Musk has not 519 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:44,080 Speaker 12: been invited, and that is over comments that he made 520 00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:47,280 Speaker 12: on social media in the summer during our riots, where 521 00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:51,200 Speaker 12: he was spreading misinformation and conspiracy theories on Twitter. Now, 522 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:53,639 Speaker 12: of course x he said that U was heading towards 523 00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:56,480 Speaker 12: civil war and he really sort of criticized new Prime 524 00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:58,920 Speaker 12: Minister kirst Armas. So the government has taken the decision 525 00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:01,320 Speaker 12: because of what he was doing doing not to invite 526 00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:05,600 Speaker 12: him and Parma, and Musk has in response told his 527 00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 12: followers not to go to Britain because quote, Britain is 528 00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:11,040 Speaker 12: sort of releasing pedophiles and jailing those who post on 529 00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:13,520 Speaker 12: social media. Now, what he's talking about is the fact 530 00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:15,480 Speaker 12: that people that were posting on social media in the 531 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:18,560 Speaker 12: summer inciting violence and hatred. A lot of those have 532 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:21,960 Speaker 12: been arrested and they have been given sentences, and in 533 00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:24,840 Speaker 12: order to free up room in our prisons, we had 534 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:27,159 Speaker 12: a release system people who have served a portion of 535 00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:30,280 Speaker 12: their sentence getting out. But they are not anyone who's 536 00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:32,000 Speaker 12: committed any sexual assaults or pedophile. 537 00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:33,760 Speaker 2: So he's got that slightly wrong. 538 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:35,760 Speaker 12: But he is sort of kicking off once again at 539 00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:38,320 Speaker 12: the government, the opposition who were in power not that 540 00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:40,800 Speaker 12: long ago, saying that they had been told by Musk 541 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:42,879 Speaker 12: that he wanted to set up a battery plant for 542 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:45,879 Speaker 12: Tesla cars in the UK, and this could now jeopardize this. 543 00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:48,800 Speaker 12: But in the past he's in fact criticized Brexit as 544 00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:52,359 Speaker 12: being a reason for him not building factories in the UK, 545 00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:54,240 Speaker 12: So we'll see where that one goes. 546 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:56,959 Speaker 2: Goodness all right, Vintent, thank you for that. Vincent Mick 547 00:27:57,040 --> 00:27:59,280 Speaker 2: of any UK and Europe correspondent. It is a live 548 00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:02,639 Speaker 2: in to six Bryan Bridge. The school strip for climate 549 00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:06,080 Speaker 2: has happening today, the last day of term. David Seen 550 00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:08,240 Speaker 2: was on a warpath about it. He says kids should 551 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:12,400 Speaker 2: be in school learning, protest in the holidays. I next Monday, 552 00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:15,920 Speaker 2: he reckons, same goes for teacher only days during term 553 00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:18,639 Speaker 2: breaks only please this is part of a plan to 554 00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:22,000 Speaker 2: turn around the awful attendance record. Linda Stewart is the 555 00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:24,439 Speaker 2: May Road Primary Principle in west Auckland. She's with us 556 00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:28,119 Speaker 2: this morning. Linda, good morning Mariner Ryan. What's wrong with 557 00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:31,440 Speaker 2: a teacher only day being just in the breaks? 558 00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:36,400 Speaker 13: Well, I think there's an interesting sort of and complex 559 00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:39,720 Speaker 13: situation here because I know in our school that our 560 00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:42,760 Speaker 13: teachers are basically limping towards the end of the term. 561 00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:45,600 Speaker 13: It's been a really hard term. We've had a lot 562 00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:50,000 Speaker 13: of teacher illness. But apart from that, it's our teachers 563 00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:53,880 Speaker 13: are working really really hard in a situation where overall 564 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:57,960 Speaker 13: there underresourced for the sorts of needs that we have 565 00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:02,000 Speaker 13: in our schools, and so it's been a really really 566 00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:04,800 Speaker 13: hard term. So I would expect that they need some 567 00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:09,680 Speaker 13: time to recuperate, then they are back in their classrooms 568 00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:14,160 Speaker 13: preparing for next term. So our teachers don't have long 569 00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:16,800 Speaker 13: holidays as some people would think. 570 00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:20,880 Speaker 2: I have how long. I'm just so weird to how long, 571 00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:23,880 Speaker 2: because it's twelve to thirteen weeks off. How many of 572 00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:26,480 Speaker 2: those would be full days of work. 573 00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:30,960 Speaker 13: I would think that most of our teachers are back 574 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:37,000 Speaker 13: in school and working hard for probably if you think 575 00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:39,960 Speaker 13: about the annual leave that people take during a year, 576 00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:43,120 Speaker 13: I would think that our teachers are either on professional 577 00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:48,520 Speaker 13: development or in their classrooms preparing teachers. Actually it's not 578 00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:51,840 Speaker 13: a job, Brian, it's a service that we do. 579 00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:55,280 Speaker 2: I'm just wondering how much not actually well understood. But 580 00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:58,680 Speaker 2: we'll tell us twelve to thirteen weeks off, how many 581 00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:00,640 Speaker 2: weeks doing full time work. 582 00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:04,680 Speaker 13: I think it would look very different in different places, 583 00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:06,880 Speaker 13: and I think it's question for. 584 00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:09,960 Speaker 2: Me fair enough and it's different for everybody, Linda, But 585 00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:12,640 Speaker 2: can you not see the point that there is room 586 00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:15,880 Speaker 2: for teacher only days to take place in the breaks 587 00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:19,680 Speaker 2: without disrupting parents. Surely you want your students to have 588 00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:21,440 Speaker 2: as little disruption as possible. 589 00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:25,120 Speaker 13: One of the things that happens, Ryan, is that that 590 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:28,480 Speaker 13: already happens. There are already staff only days in the 591 00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:33,600 Speaker 13: gym breaks. But the teacher only days are often teacher 592 00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:36,040 Speaker 13: only days that are given to us by the Ministry 593 00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:39,000 Speaker 13: of Education, and then we make up. We have to 594 00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:43,080 Speaker 13: do a certain amount of days per year, and we 595 00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:46,960 Speaker 13: make up any days that we take that are over 596 00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:49,760 Speaker 13: and above that we make up. So I think there's 597 00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:51,480 Speaker 13: a real recivating standard. 598 00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:56,640 Speaker 2: How how long can we just be honest? Do teachers 599 00:30:56,680 --> 00:31:00,160 Speaker 2: get more annually or more time off them than we get? 600 00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:02,640 Speaker 2: You know, we get four weeks or at most or 601 00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:05,760 Speaker 2: a couple of weeks, whatever it is. Teachers get more 602 00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:06,400 Speaker 2: than that, don't they. 603 00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:10,360 Speaker 13: It's very interesting, Ryan, because if that was the true 604 00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:13,880 Speaker 13: case of teaching and learning in this country, you would 605 00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:17,600 Speaker 13: have cues of people who are lining up to be teachers. 606 00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:21,600 Speaker 13: At the moment, we can't get teachers in our classrooms. 607 00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:25,280 Speaker 13: We can't get relievers in our classroom. So if that 608 00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:28,680 Speaker 13: was the reality of a teacher's life, we would see 609 00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:31,960 Speaker 13: a very different scenario. And I think that's the issue 610 00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:34,640 Speaker 13: that we've got at the moment. There's a real lack 611 00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:41,160 Speaker 13: of understanding from some of our politicians and certainly from 612 00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:45,320 Speaker 13: some of our journalists around the reality for a teacher. 613 00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:49,480 Speaker 13: I ask you to come into our school and see 614 00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:53,240 Speaker 13: what our teachers do and then say that our teachers 615 00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:58,880 Speaker 13: don't deserve Monday and Tuesday of this week next week 616 00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:02,640 Speaker 13: to actually cooper some of the work that they've been doing. 617 00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:04,600 Speaker 2: Linda, thank you very much for your time this morning. 618 00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:08,080 Speaker 2: Linda Stuart the May Road Primary Principle in west Auckland. 619 00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:10,920 Speaker 2: Seven to six MIC next on. 620 00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:15,680 Speaker 1: Your radio and online on iHeartRadio Early edition with Ryan 621 00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:18,840 Speaker 1: Bridge and Smith City, New Zealand's Furniture Beds and a 622 00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:20,640 Speaker 1: Playing Store News talk zaid be. 623 00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:23,320 Speaker 2: Just gone five away from six.
