We're going 5 00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:17,079 Speaker 2: to go to the Middle East on the latest with 6 00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:20,880 Speaker 2: carg Island. That's a strategically very important place. Retail was 7 00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:23,160 Speaker 2: looking good before all of the stuff in Iran kicked off, 8 00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:25,040 Speaker 2: so we'll get you that good news. And Sean Mandel 9 00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:26,000 Speaker 2: and Hollywood on. 10 00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:28,840 Speaker 1: The oscars for you, Heather do plaic Ellen. 11 00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:32,680 Speaker 2: But I don't know what Chippy should do. I don't 12 00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:34,440 Speaker 2: know what Chris Hopkins should do about stuff that his 13 00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:37,000 Speaker 2: ex wife has posted on social media today. Now I 14 00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:40,200 Speaker 2: can't repeat what she said because I cannot substantiate any 15 00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:42,040 Speaker 2: of what she said. I don't know if any of 16 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:44,120 Speaker 2: it is true, and none of us in the media 17 00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:46,400 Speaker 2: know what is true and what is not true, which 18 00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:48,640 Speaker 2: is why none of us can run it, because if 19 00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:51,959 Speaker 2: any of it isn't true. And Chris Hopkins sues for defamation, 20 00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:54,440 Speaker 2: it's not just her he's going to sue, it's all 21 00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:57,800 Speaker 2: of us who repeat it. Unfortunately for him, it obviously 22 00:00:57,800 --> 00:00:59,960 Speaker 2: doesn't stop you from going and digging it out yourself, 23 00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:02,400 Speaker 2: or if you'll like me today, just having it sent 24 00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:05,720 Speaker 2: to you on texts and emails, just unprompted in. It 25 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:10,039 Speaker 2: comes because someone, if not multiple people, have screen grabbed 26 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:12,399 Speaker 2: her original Facebook post and sent it around. 27 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:12,600 Speaker 3: Now. 28 00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 2: This is why I don't know what he should do 29 00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:16,160 Speaker 2: about it, because if this was nineteen eighty four and 30 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 2: social media didn't exist, I'd say to him just ignore it, 31 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:21,640 Speaker 2: say nothing. No one can print it or broadcast it 32 00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:24,400 Speaker 2: unless she's prepared to sign an affidavit or provide evidence 33 00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:27,840 Speaker 2: of text exchanges or email exchanges or official documents backing 34 00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:29,840 Speaker 2: up what she's alleging. But the problem for Chris Hopkins 35 00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:31,880 Speaker 2: is it's not a nineteen eighty four is it. It's 36 00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:34,560 Speaker 2: the social media age, and he cannot just rely on 37 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:37,119 Speaker 2: the media being responsible to stop the flow of information 38 00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:40,480 Speaker 2: like this, which means this will probably go the way 39 00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:44,240 Speaker 2: of the Tom Phillips suppressed information within weeks or within months. 40 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:47,000 Speaker 2: By the time the election rolls around, hundreds of thousands 41 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 2: of people's will people will have read it or heard it, 42 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:52,440 Speaker 2: read the screen grab, and the damage maybe done. There 43 00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:54,480 Speaker 2: will be people who believe the stuff that she said 44 00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 2: in this account, and if you've seen it, you know 45 00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 2: it's pretty nasty stuff, it's pretty damaging stuff, and they 46 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 2: will believe it because he has said nothing to defend himself. 47 00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:05,240 Speaker 2: That is a possibility that plays out like this. But 48 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 2: the alternative is he pipes up and does defend himself 49 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:10,240 Speaker 2: and then what happens. What are we witnessing. We're witnessing 50 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:13,519 Speaker 2: an ugly fight between two divorces about what happened to 51 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:15,919 Speaker 2: lead to their marriage falling apart, in what happened afterwards. 52 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 2: Now that never helps anyone, right, let alone a politician 53 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:21,799 Speaker 2: wanting to be Prime minister. So I actually don't know 54 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:24,080 Speaker 2: what Chris Hopkins should do. I do not know what 55 00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:25,800 Speaker 2: his advisors will tell him to do. This is a 56 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:29,680 Speaker 2: political pr nightmare, I would say, keV dou Percy Allen. 57 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:32,919 Speaker 4: Nine two nine. 58 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:35,919 Speaker 2: Who's the text number? Standard text fees apply. We will 59 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:38,400 Speaker 2: cover this obviously with the huddle. We've got Bill O'Riley 60 00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 2: and Joseph Acganni with us. Just after half past five. 61 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 2: Now the government is loosening booze regulations. A Billa is 62 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 2: being introduced today that will enact a number of changes 63 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:50,079 Speaker 2: to the liquor lincensing regime. If it passes, Objections to 64 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:53,400 Speaker 2: liquor licenses will now only be accepted from people living 65 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 2: or working in the same area as the licensee. License 66 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 2: applicants will have a right to reply to the objections, 67 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:00,959 Speaker 2: and he addresses, yeah, will be able to serve a 68 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:03,639 Speaker 2: limited amount of alcohol to clients. Philip Gregan is the 69 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:06,080 Speaker 2: New Zealand Wine Growers CEO and is with us afternoon. 70 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:10,880 Speaker 3: Philip, Good afternoon, Heather. You like this, Yeah, Look, in 71 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 3: general sense, I think it's common sense that there has 72 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,760 Speaker 3: to be rules and regulations now guard rails around sale 73 00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:21,880 Speaker 3: of alcohol. We understand that, but some of the rules 74 00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:24,160 Speaker 3: and regulations that were there it didn't seem to make 75 00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:26,840 Speaker 3: a lot of sense, frankly, and it's good to see 76 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 3: proposals for change. 77 00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 2: How is it that wineries are affected by the rules 78 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 2: or the new rules. 79 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 3: Well, look, imagine you're a winery in let's say why 80 00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 3: a Wrapper or Nelson. You go to renew your license. 81 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 3: Somebody in the cargo or towering could object. Under the 82 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:47,120 Speaker 3: existing law, they could object and you would have no 83 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 3: right of reply to their objection to your licensing. When 84 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 3: that doesn't seem fair to me. 85 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 2: No, not at all. Did that actually happen to wineries? 86 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 2: Because winery seem to me to be the least offensive 87 00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 2: thing out there. 88 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 3: Look, it has happened to license holders, absolutely, there's no 89 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 3: doubt about it. 90 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 2: Has it happened to you? 91 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:10,960 Speaker 5: No, I don't have a license, Fir enough, What about 92 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 5: the zero alcohol thing, because I'm told that you guys 93 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,080 Speaker 5: have to, as a result of the current laws, hold 94 00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,600 Speaker 5: zero alcohol somewhere on the premises. 95 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 6: Is that right? 96 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:24,440 Speaker 3: Well, yes, there was a requirement to have zero or 97 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:27,120 Speaker 3: low alcohol products available. And what have some of our 98 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:31,720 Speaker 3: wineries found? And you may find this unbelievable, but by 99 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:36,000 Speaker 3: having zero alcohol products, they didn't count as low alcohol products. 100 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:41,000 Speaker 3: This legislation, as we understand it cleans up that particular 101 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 3: mess and we can all get on with being normal adults. 102 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 2: Well, so the zero so if you had a zero 103 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:50,240 Speaker 2: beer or a zero wine, it would count. What are 104 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:54,440 Speaker 2: the software soft drink department as opposed to in the 105 00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 2: lower alcohol department. 106 00:04:55,920 --> 00:05:00,279 Speaker 3: Yes, which was less than two point five percent, And frankly, 107 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 3: I'm not sure that there are any wines less than 108 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 3: two point five percent. They tend to be slightly higher 109 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 3: than that order zero. So look, this is just another 110 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 3: common sense change. 111 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, it does sound like it's a bit nutty. Hey, 112 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 2: is there anything else though in there that you thought 113 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 2: could have done that instead as well? 114 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:22,760 Speaker 3: Look, we actually haven't. I haven't read the proposed piece 115 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 3: of legislation yet to understand it's coming out this afternoon. 116 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:29,840 Speaker 3: I haven't gone through it. Look, there's always things in 117 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 3: alcohol legislation. I think, well, perhaps we could change that, 118 00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:36,360 Speaker 3: but they seem to have come up with a reasonable 119 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:40,280 Speaker 3: menu of changes at the stage, and let's take one 120 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 3: step forward and see and see if we can get 121 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 3: these through to parliament. 122 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 2: All right, hey, thank you very much, Philip, appreciate.

I think 177 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 7: he'll go away from the Chinese Grand Prix, which remember 178 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 7: a year ago Hea. There was the one where he 179 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:06,240 Speaker 7: was basically demoted from the Red Bull stable following his 180 00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:10,680 Speaker 7: performance there with a much happier disposition, I would say, 181 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 7: and who knows, it may well set him up for 182 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 7: a really decent twenty twenty six. So yeah, I'm not 183 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:18,440 Speaker 7: sure that he could have done much more. He you know, 184 00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 7: he competed with cars that are a lot faster than him. 185 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:24,280 Speaker 7: He held off guys coming from behind. I just thought 186 00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 7: he had a next long weekend. 187 00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 2: Right, So tell me what you think happened to the 188 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:29,280 Speaker 2: Warriors that they were so convincing on Friday. 189 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 7: Something must have happened at halftime, because at halftime it 190 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:35,079 Speaker 7: was six all. I thought this was tight, and probably 191 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:37,679 Speaker 7: predictably so, but they came out in the second half 192 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 7: and just just unleashed this this attacking cohesion that was 193 00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:45,080 Speaker 7: just irresistible for the Raiders, who were a good team. 194 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:47,720 Speaker 7: You know, let's not hide behind the fact that they 195 00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 7: are a very, very good rugby league team, and yet 196 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:52,319 Speaker 7: the Warriors made them look second rate. 197 00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 3: You know. 198 00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:55,720 Speaker 7: On top of that, they lost Kurt Caple just before kickoff, 199 00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:58,679 Speaker 7: Lekahlasima came in. Man, what a play he could be. 200 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:00,800 Speaker 7: I just think They've just built some confidence from the 201 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:03,079 Speaker 7: first game where they put forty on the Roosters when 202 00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 7: I put forty on forty on the Raiders. Look, I mean, 203 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:09,839 Speaker 7: it's it's quite early on in the piece to be 204 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 7: getting carried away here. But who knows, Maybe twenty twenty 205 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 7: six is this holy grail? Maybe it is, Babe, it is. 206 00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:21,000 Speaker 7: I don't know, who knows? Couldby could be. 207 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 2: We're all going to get tickets for next Friday, aren't we? Absolutely? 208 00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:26,840 Speaker 7: Look, I mean you can't get a ticket to the Warriors. 209 00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:28,960 Speaker 7: That's the beauty of this club. They've connected with their 210 00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:31,319 Speaker 7: fans so much. When or lose people turn up. It 211 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:33,440 Speaker 7: was a terrible night the other night. Did you see 212 00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:35,839 Speaker 7: that that V promotion they were doing for the V 213 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 7: Energy drink? All these people are wearing green. 214 00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:39,679 Speaker 8: I was watching on TV. 215 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 7: How where are all these Raiders fans come from? 216 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:42,080 Speaker 3: Here? 217 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 7: Because the Raiders were green? A terrible time to have 218 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 7: a V Energy drink promotion. 219 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 2: Oh no, I hadn't realized. 220 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:49,839 Speaker 9: That thing was. 221 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:52,199 Speaker 2: That's hilarious, he piney, thank you very much. I love 222 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:54,679 Speaker 2: a thing like that. Jason Pine Sports Store Coaster be 223 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:59,400 Speaker 2: back at seven o'clock this evening. Either I've read the post. 224 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 2: This is the Hipgins post. Either I've read the post, 225 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 2: and if true, he is done for. In my opinion, 226 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 2: no woman would write such deeply personal stuff unless it's true. No, No, 227 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 2: I don't think that's true. I mean, listen, if you've 228 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 2: ever if you've come on you know full well, you 229 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 2: know when you know when you've got mates and they 230 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:19,120 Speaker 2: break up and then one of them is like, oh, 231 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 2: you won't believe what he did to me, and then 232 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:25,599 Speaker 2: you just know that that's not what really happened, Like 233 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:27,880 Speaker 2: there'll be kernels of truth in there. But then you 234 00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:29,880 Speaker 2: go around to the other side, you're like, oh, well 235 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:32,959 Speaker 2: that's a completely different story. You know that this is 236 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 2: how it rolls out, and you've been around long enough 237 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 2: so you can't just read it and go that that's 238 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:40,600 Speaker 2: exactly what happened. What she said, you know that. Listen, 239 00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 2: I have a question for you. You remember how we 240 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:44,599 Speaker 2: were talking about this last week, the government doing the 241 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 2: U turn on the animal export band. Remember they were 242 00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:51,080 Speaker 2: like they campaigned on it Actor National I said, if 243 00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 2: they got in there, they would lift the ban on 244 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:56,319 Speaker 2: the animal experts, would be sending live animal exports overseas again, 245 00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:57,760 Speaker 2: and then last week we found out they're not doing 246 00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 2: it anymore. Which part of the government would Which party 247 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:02,880 Speaker 2: in government? Here is the question, which party in government 248 00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:07,439 Speaker 2: do you think was to blame for putting a stop 249 00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:09,679 Speaker 2: to that? So which party in government said, you know what, 250 00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:13,079 Speaker 2: We're not going to overturn this ban? Answer after the 251 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:14,200 Speaker 2: break for twenty one. 252 00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:19,719 Speaker 1: The headlines and the hard questions. It's the mic Hosking breakfast. 253 00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:21,520 Speaker 10: Time ministom is with us from the Islands. Would we 254 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 10: in any way, shape or form consider sending a frigid 255 00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:25,720 Speaker 10: or two to help Trump and thee. 256 00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:28,719 Speaker 11: Straight the hormos straight really important to New Zealand. But look, 257 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 11: we haven't been formally asked. I'm not sure we will be. 258 00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:33,599 Speaker 11: But if we were, then that would need to be 259 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 11: a cabinet decision. 260 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:35,480 Speaker 10: What's your sense of it. 261 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 11: The key thing here really is with respect to this 262 00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 11: crisis is that we really wanted to end as quickly 263 00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 11: as possible and get to a negotiated solution. But the 264 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 11: thing is is Ellen's well positioned with respect to fuel supply. 265 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,000 Speaker 11: But it's just making sure that we're thinking a head 266 00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:49,120 Speaker 11: that should it be a protracted conflict. One of the 267 00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:50,600 Speaker 11: other things that we need to be thinking. 268 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:53,600 Speaker 10: About back tomorrow at six am the Mic Hosking breakfast 269 00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:56,760 Speaker 10: with rain drivers for sv News Talk zb. 270 00:11:57,080 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 1: The name you trust to get the answers, it's heather 271 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:04,719 Speaker 1: of duplicy Ellen drive with one New Zealand coverage like 272 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 1: no one else news talks. 273 00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 2: They'd be okay, here's the answer for you. So which 274 00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:12,079 Speaker 2: party was to blame for the government you turning on 275 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:14,719 Speaker 2: lifting the animal the live animal export ban. The way 276 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 2: it was written, it sounded like it was New Zealand 277 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:20,200 Speaker 2: First who was the problem, and National an Act couldn't 278 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 2: get it over the line past them. No answer is 279 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:26,680 Speaker 2: actually National National was the problem. Thomas Cogland's written about 280 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 2: it in his column which covered like a thousand different 281 00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:33,160 Speaker 2: topics this past weekend. He writes, National, despite campaigning on 282 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:37,080 Speaker 2: overturning the ban itself, got cold feet. Feedback from Auckland, 283 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:41,560 Speaker 2: apparently coming from Erica Stanford, who is obviously up in Auckland, 284 00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:45,600 Speaker 2: is that the policy was wildly unpopular amongst the urban voters, 285 00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:49,760 Speaker 2: that National is losing to Labor, National panicked and withdrew 286 00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 2: support brackets. New Zealand First seems not to have cared 287 00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:55,400 Speaker 2: much either way, which is very interesting could have thought, 288 00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:58,520 Speaker 2: once again, the foe farmers get poked not only by 289 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:01,160 Speaker 2: politics but by the National Party. So we'll have a 290 00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:03,120 Speaker 2: chat to Nichola Willis when she's with us after six 291 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:05,719 Speaker 2: o'clock four twenty five. So we've got the oscars have 292 00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:08,680 Speaker 2: taken place, so wrapped up down the role the final credits, 293 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,200 Speaker 2: they are all off getting boozed at their parties. Winners 294 00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 2: are Best Picture, one battle after another, Best Director, Paul 295 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:18,959 Speaker 2: Thomas Anderson, one battle after another. Best Actor in a 296 00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:22,439 Speaker 2: leading role Michael B. Jordan for Sinners. Now Michael B. 297 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 2: Jordan is not a surprise at all, because, as you know, 298 00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:29,120 Speaker 2: there's politics in this stuff, right. Michael B Jordan was 299 00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:31,640 Speaker 2: the one who got called the N word at the Bafts, 300 00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:33,679 Speaker 2: so that kind of pushed him up. Everybody was like, 301 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:36,360 Speaker 2: that's not cool, so they like him a little bit more. 302 00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:39,520 Speaker 2: And he was up against Timothy Schallomay, who probably should 303 00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:41,920 Speaker 2: have won it because this was his season. But then 304 00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:44,040 Speaker 2: Timmy Schallomay goes out there and says he doesn't like 305 00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 2: Oprah and ballet and nobody cares, and so then that 306 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:49,360 Speaker 2: downgrade and so politics politics gives it to Michael B. 307 00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 12: Jordan. 308 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 13: I hang on a minute head though as well, Michael 309 00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:53,880 Speaker 13: had to play both the main characters in that movie, 310 00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 13: and I'm pretty sure Timothy only played one character in 311 00:13:57,040 --> 00:13:57,640 Speaker 13: Marty Supreme. 312 00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:01,080 Speaker 2: So sure were Michael B. Jordan plus Michael B. Jordan 313 00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 2: added together greater than the sum of Tamishalla map I more. 314 00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:07,280 Speaker 13: Meant that it's really hard to play one character alone too, 315 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:09,000 Speaker 13: But yes, that I'll go with that logic too. 316 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:11,319 Speaker 2: That's what me and whatever. Anyway, we all know it 317 00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:15,559 Speaker 2: was politics. Best Winner, Best Winner for Leading Actress was 318 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:17,960 Speaker 2: my girl, Jesse Buckley. And if you couldn't like her 319 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 2: like she is, also what a great actor, but also 320 00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 2: what a great human being? 321 00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:26,680 Speaker 14: Fred I love you, man, I love you. You're the 322 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:29,320 Speaker 14: most incredible dad. You're my best friend. And I want 323 00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 14: to have twenty thousand more babies with you. 324 00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:31,440 Speaker 3: I do. 325 00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:32,560 Speaker 9: I do. 326 00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 14: And Eila, my little girl who is eight months, who 327 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:39,800 Speaker 14: has absolutely no idea what's going on, and it's probably 328 00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:43,280 Speaker 14: dreaming of milk. But this is kind of a big deal. 329 00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 2: She's so cool. She is just so cool and so 330 00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 2: normal and she's just the mom of an eight month 331 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:51,640 Speaker 2: old who loves her husband. How good is that? Anyway? Unfortunately, 332 00:14:51,720 --> 00:15:02,840 Speaker 2: bad News, Best original song Headed Answer Golden Golden ky Pop. 333 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:04,880 Speaker 2: We banned this from the show.

We've had to 335 00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:11,480 Speaker 2: lift the I'm doing a national I'm lifting the ban. Actually, no, 336 00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:13,520 Speaker 2: that's more than national that they didn't lift the band today, 337 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:15,320 Speaker 2: so I'm better than national. I've lifted the ban on 338 00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:16,480 Speaker 2: account of public opinion. 339 00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:17,880 Speaker 13: Oh, permanently lifted the band. 340 00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:19,720 Speaker 2: No, we're going to reban the band.

I think I think he's going to 355 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:06,400 Speaker 2: have to deal with us at some stage, but I 356 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:08,320 Speaker 2: don't know anyway. But you know what, I actually I 357 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:09,880 Speaker 2: remain of the view that I don't know what he 358 00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:12,440 Speaker 2: should do. Barry Soaper will be with us in ten 359 00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:14,040 Speaker 2: minutes time and we can get his take on it, 360 00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:16,000 Speaker 2: just really quickly. On the cricket I don't know if 361 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:17,920 Speaker 2: you're aware of this, but the Cricket Board was supposed 362 00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:20,920 Speaker 2: to make a decision today about whether they would be 363 00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:23,520 Speaker 2: kicking off this new T twenty competition to replace the 364 00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:25,960 Speaker 2: Super Smash or not. And it's a binary choice for them. 365 00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:28,960 Speaker 2: It's either the T twenty or it's the Big Bash League. 366 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:31,040 Speaker 2: As in we set we form a New Zealand team 367 00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 2: and we submitted to the Big Bash lead League and 368 00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:37,040 Speaker 2: put them in there. There were rumors circulating earlier today 369 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:39,640 Speaker 2: that the decision had been taken, the vote had been taken, 370 00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 2: and that it had gone the way of the Big 371 00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 2: Bash League, which totally surprised all of us because that 372 00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:46,320 Speaker 2: would be the poorer option for New Zealand cricket like 373 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 2: that would be bad for cricket in this country. So 374 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:51,840 Speaker 2: we're all surprised by that, and also because we were 375 00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:54,640 Speaker 2: told over the weekend that the NZ twenty was about 376 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:57,280 Speaker 2: seventy percent there anyway, then the rumor was unrumored, so 377 00:16:57,400 --> 00:16:59,480 Speaker 2: that's now not the case. So now we're just back 378 00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:01,360 Speaker 2: waiting for them decision. But we are waiting for the 379 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 2: decision and if we get it today, which New Zealand 380 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:07,159 Speaker 2: cricket doesn't seem to move quickly, so I'm not guessing 381 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:08,880 Speaker 2: we're going to get it today. We'll get it maybe 382 00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:11,520 Speaker 2: in the next week or so. But when we do, 383 00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:13,920 Speaker 2: and if we do, we will obviously be talking about that. 384 00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:16,240 Speaker 2: As I say, barrisopas with us. In ten minutes, it's 385 00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:17,440 Speaker 2: twenty four away from five. 386 00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:21,120 Speaker 1: It's the world wires on news dogs, they'd be drive. 387 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:24,200 Speaker 2: Donald Trump has called on other countries to help open 388 00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:26,800 Speaker 2: up the straight up pummers. He told reporters on Air 389 00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:29,080 Speaker 2: Force one that only a small amount of the oil 390 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:30,920 Speaker 2: that goes through the Strait goes to the US, so 391 00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:32,439 Speaker 2: other countries need to step up. 392 00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:37,439 Speaker 12: They sat with the countes, police stat with us, and we'll. 393 00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:41,120 Speaker 1: Out worth them militarily. As far as I'm concerned, We've 394 00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:42,480 Speaker 1: essentially defend. 395 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:45,879 Speaker 2: Trump has also said that Iran wants to negotiate a 396 00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 2: cease fire, but the Iranian government disputes this. 397 00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:51,080 Speaker 12: We are ready to defend ourselves as long as it takes. 398 00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:54,600 Speaker 6: We don't see any reason why we should talk with 399 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:58,480 Speaker 6: the Americans because we were talking with them when they 400 00:17:58,560 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 6: decided to attack us them. 401 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,960 Speaker 2: And finally, have you ever got off the bus, of 402 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:05,320 Speaker 2: the train, or your public transport whatever and then immediately 403 00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:07,760 Speaker 2: had that horrible realization that you've left wallat or your 404 00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:10,399 Speaker 2: phone behind.

Look after the birds now, speaking. 441 00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:40,639 Speaker 2: Speaking of birds, and I will get in trouble for 442 00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:43,480 Speaker 2: this speaking of birds, what's happened to the Iranian footballer 443 00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:45,119 Speaker 2: is that five of them have gone back to Iran. 444 00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:47,480 Speaker 12: And this is just terribly sad, isn't it. 445 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:51,159 Speaker 15: That The argument is, or what's starting to come out 446 00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:55,120 Speaker 15: is they are being threatened heather from you know, internally, 447 00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 15: and there's a little bit of criticism out of towards 448 00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:00,240 Speaker 15: the government that Tony Burke, the Home Affairs Minister, was 449 00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:03,800 Speaker 15: standing there, you know, celebrating the fact that these seven 450 00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:07,160 Speaker 15: Iranian women had decided to defect to Australia and seek 451 00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:10,840 Speaker 15: asylum in Australia after the football commitments in the Asian Cup. 452 00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:13,359 Speaker 15: At five of the seven they have now returned home 453 00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 15: and they are currently meeting their teammates in Malaysia before 454 00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:20,879 Speaker 15: they go back to Iran. So there are conflicting stories 455 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:23,520 Speaker 15: at the moment that their families back in Iran, back 456 00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:26,760 Speaker 15: in Tehran, have been threatened obviously because they're starting to 457 00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 15: make a turn. And now, as I said that, criticism 458 00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 15: is being leveled at the Australian government for making a 459 00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:35,800 Speaker 15: celebration about it, for making a public stance because this 460 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:37,960 Speaker 15: obviously in the eyes I remember Donald Trump got involved 461 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:40,359 Speaker 15: in this last week the US President. This is going 462 00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:42,480 Speaker 15: to look as though and it will be used by 463 00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:46,040 Speaker 15: the Iranian government that look at what happened in the end, 464 00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:49,000 Speaker 15: you know, they decided to come home. So there's two 465 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:52,119 Speaker 15: who are at this stage decided to stay in Australia. 466 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:54,680 Speaker 15: But yeah, what a horrible set of circumstances and whatever 467 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:56,240 Speaker 15: awaits them when they get back to Tehran. 468 00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:59,240 Speaker 2: See, One Nation's doing really well in the polls. This 469 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:00,240 Speaker 2: is the future, isn't it. 470 00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:03,240 Speaker 15: Well it is at the moment, and there seems to 471 00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:05,399 Speaker 15: be no way that the Conservatives, that Liberal and the 472 00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:08,720 Speaker 15: National Party can start to arrest back this trend. And 473 00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:10,320 Speaker 15: it's more than a trend, heut. And this has been 474 00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:13,680 Speaker 15: going on now for the last since the last federal election. 475 00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:17,280 Speaker 15: The One Nation primary vote is now to twenty four percent, 476 00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:19,520 Speaker 15: which is huge. I mean that is more at the 477 00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:22,960 Speaker 15: moment than the coalition it's got twenty two percent. 478 00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:23,639 Speaker 12: The Liberals and the. 479 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:26,359 Speaker 15: National Party together Labour won that election last year with 480 00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 15: a thirty five percent primary vote, but that's now dropped 481 00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:31,080 Speaker 15: to twenty nine percent. So you can just see in 482 00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:35,639 Speaker 15: Australia moving forward, whoever's in government is probably going to 483 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:36,960 Speaker 15: have to do that with a whole heap of the 484 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:39,159 Speaker 15: minor parties. So whether from a Labour point of view, 485 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:40,480 Speaker 15: that's going to be with the Greens, or if the 486 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:42,879 Speaker 15: Coalition wants to get back into parliament one day, they 487 00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:46,119 Speaker 15: probably have to look towards becoming a party that is 488 00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:48,440 Speaker 15: trying to entice the One Nation voters and be a 489 00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:50,240 Speaker 15: little further to the right on the political spectrum. 490 00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:51,960 Speaker 2: We're a fair point. Now, listen, what are the points 491 00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:54,119 Speaker 2: of these crisis talks about the petrol price. 492 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:56,560 Speaker 15: Well, to do something to make it look like they're 493 00:21:56,600 --> 00:21:58,640 Speaker 15: doing something, And we've handled this terrible. I mean, look, 494 00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:00,600 Speaker 15: we've all been caught around the world, get me wrong, 495 00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:04,600 Speaker 15: But Chris Bowen, the federal Environment Minister, was hosing everything 496 00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:06,479 Speaker 15: down last week and then late on Friday comes out 497 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:08,840 Speaker 15: and says, yes, it's a full blown crisis. You know, 498 00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:12,120 Speaker 15: I think you've got to manage your expectations because while 499 00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:14,480 Speaker 15: the punters are being blamed for, you know, all of 500 00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:16,679 Speaker 15: a sudden going and filling up all these jerry cans 501 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:20,320 Speaker 15: and stockpiling fuel, it's the messaging that comes from the 502 00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:22,480 Speaker 15: top about saying you don't need to panic by, you 503 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:23,960 Speaker 15: don't need to do this, you don't need to do that. 504 00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:27,359 Speaker 15: So in New South Wales day they're currently holding crisis 505 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:29,760 Speaker 15: talks with lots of people from industry, from the transport 506 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:32,880 Speaker 15: groups and the like. What will eventuate from that, who knows. 507 00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:35,000 Speaker 12: Let's be honest. We had one here in Wa last week. 508 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:36,800 Speaker 15: We've got a big problem like where I am here, 509 00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:38,719 Speaker 15: because we're so far away from the rest of the country. 510 00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:42,399 Speaker 15: You've got farmers who are heading into the seeding parts 511 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:45,120 Speaker 15: of the year. They're telling us locally that they usually 512 00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:48,520 Speaker 15: get about ten thousand liters of diesel deposited this time 513 00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:50,320 Speaker 15: of year and they're lucky to get a thousand or 514 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:52,600 Speaker 15: two thousand. Leaders Now, if they can't go ahead and 515 00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:55,119 Speaker 15: obviously undertake what they need to do, we're. 516 00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:56,320 Speaker 12: Not going to have as much food available. 517 00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:59,480 Speaker 15: Obviously, those diesel prices, it keeps skyrocketing so that people 518 00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:00,920 Speaker 15: who pick it up and try and take it to 519 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:03,360 Speaker 15: the ports, et cetera, et cetera. We all know inflation, 520 00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:05,240 Speaker 15: he's going to continue to bite and guess what the 521 00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:07,439 Speaker 15: Reserve Bank meets tomorrow, interest rates are going to go. 522 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:11,520 Speaker 2: Up, probably the case for you guys. Unfortunately, all right, mate, listen, 523 00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:13,159 Speaker 2: thanks very much for talking us through that. That is 524 00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:16,280 Speaker 2: Oliver Peterson who's with us out of Australia. It's seventeen 525 00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:17,040 Speaker 2: away from. 526 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:19,119 Speaker 1: Five Heather du plus Ellen. 527 00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:25,200 Speaker 2: Okay, there is ongoing chat about Luckson's continued leadership of 528 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:27,360 Speaker 2: the National Party. I see Audrey Young's written a piece 529 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:28,920 Speaker 2: which is in the Herald today. She lays out the 530 00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:31,920 Speaker 2: possible replacements for him, which, by the way, I still 531 00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:33,920 Speaker 2: think there's a chance that's going to happen before the election, 532 00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:37,399 Speaker 2: and I think reading it, I think Audrey kind of 533 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:41,080 Speaker 2: is leaning towards Erica Stanford. I actually disagree. I think 534 00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:42,600 Speaker 2: it's somebody else in the party. I don't have time 535 00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:44,000 Speaker 2: to deal with that right now. I'll do it later 536 00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:45,880 Speaker 2: this week. Maybe I'll do it in my column on Sunday. Whatever, 537 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:48,720 Speaker 2: we'll deal with it. But on that subject, Thomas Coglan's 538 00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:50,720 Speaker 2: column in The Herald on Saturday made a very good point. 539 00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:52,919 Speaker 2: Let me read this to you. He says, Luxon has 540 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:55,880 Speaker 2: been wounded by last week's rumbles. Only he knows whether 541 00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 2: he was actually considering his future on Friday morning, but 542 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:00,520 Speaker 2: the fact remains a good number of his He thought 543 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:03,920 Speaker 2: he was creating a power vacuum that lasted until just 544 00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:06,600 Speaker 2: before he went on the radio to hose the rumors down. 545 00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:09,879 Speaker 2: He's something like the subprime mortgage of the New Zealand 546 00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:14,120 Speaker 2: political system. An entire self reinforcing structure has been built 547 00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:17,480 Speaker 2: around him. Labour has built an entire strategy aimed at 548 00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:20,879 Speaker 2: his weakness rather than Nationals, New Zealand First and Actor 549 00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:22,920 Speaker 2: riding high. Thanks to the fact that National is a 550 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:25,639 Speaker 2: ship that's going down with its captain, it's a risky 551 00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:27,480 Speaker 2: bet for all of them. Luxeon's not just at the 552 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:29,879 Speaker 2: center of Nationals plans, He's at the center of everyone 553 00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:31,520 Speaker 2: else's too, and if he goes, it won't just be 554 00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:34,440 Speaker 2: National that's left scrambling. So what he's saying is that 555 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:38,080 Speaker 2: everyone has designed their campaigns for this year based on 556 00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:41,240 Speaker 2: Luxon being the leader of the National Party. Labour's designed 557 00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:43,879 Speaker 2: its campaign, New Zealand First has designed its campaign, Actors 558 00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:47,439 Speaker 2: designed its campaign, and all of those parties at New 559 00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:50,080 Speaker 2: Zealand First and Labor all want him there because he 560 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:53,240 Speaker 2: keeps Nationals vote down, which is good for all of them. 561 00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:57,399 Speaker 2: But what Thomas is saying is if he goes, they 562 00:24:57,480 --> 00:24:59,639 Speaker 2: better have a Plan B, because their Plan A is 563 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:01,720 Speaker 2: not going to work anymore. And listen to what I'm 564 00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:05,000 Speaker 2: saying to you, I think he goes, which means actually, 565 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:07,360 Speaker 2: if he goes and they are all relying on him 566 00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:09,680 Speaker 2: being there for their election campaigns to work, well, it 567 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:11,719 Speaker 2: might work well for National because they'll all be, as 568 00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:13,680 Speaker 2: Thomas says, scrambling quarter. 569 00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:18,440 Speaker 1: Two politics with centric credit. Check your customers and get 570 00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:19,240 Speaker 1: payments certainty. 571 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:21,680 Speaker 2: If you're listening to the show on Friday, you'll know 572 00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:25,119 Speaker 2: the strategic importance of carg Island, which is just off 573 00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:26,639 Speaker 2: the coast of Iran, and why that should not have 574 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:28,800 Speaker 2: been struck by at the weekend by Donald Trump, which 575 00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:30,400 Speaker 2: of course he has done. So we'll have a chat 576 00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:32,520 Speaker 2: to the Middle East correspondent for the Economist staff the 577 00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:35,560 Speaker 2: five about the implications thirteen away from five and Barry 578 00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:38,040 Speaker 2: so Per, senior political correspondence here, Hi, Barry. 579 00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:40,320 Speaker 8: Good afternoon. Hither we don't have time to talk about it. 580 00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:42,399 Speaker 8: But I don't agree with what you said about Luxeon, 581 00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:46,720 Speaker 8: which part that he would be gone before the election. 582 00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:48,439 Speaker 2: Okay, well how much what. 583 00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:54,000 Speaker 8: I don't know, nice bottle of whiskey would do. 584 00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:56,600 Speaker 2: Okay, good bottle of whiskey. On that, I say he's 585 00:25:56,600 --> 00:25:58,320 Speaker 2: gone before the election, and you say he's not, And 586 00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 2: so you're writing that down for me because I always 587 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:02,160 Speaker 2: forget my bets and then I forget to pay all 588 00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:08,479 Speaker 2: you case you all right? So what did you make 589 00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:09,760 Speaker 2: of Willis's press conference? 590 00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:13,240 Speaker 8: Well, you know, it's interesting, isn't it that Chris Luxen 591 00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:17,720 Speaker 8: is overseas at the moment in Samoa and Nikola Willis 592 00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:20,520 Speaker 8: held a news conference at one o'clock reminded me of 593 00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:23,800 Speaker 8: the COVID days. Although the last words she uttered at 594 00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 8: the news conference that she wasn't speaking from the not 595 00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:29,840 Speaker 8: the pulpit. I was called at the pole, which she said, 596 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:34,520 Speaker 8: the podium of truth. You know when we'll get regular updates. 597 00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:38,080 Speaker 8: She's doing another one on Wednesday. But what she's saying 598 00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:41,359 Speaker 8: essentially is don't panic. And you remember the head of 599 00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:46,080 Speaker 8: the New Zealand Rabishanka, he said, don't panic, but panic slowly. 600 00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:50,520 Speaker 8: So you know, it's it's not a great situation at 601 00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:54,320 Speaker 8: the moment because the longer this goes on in the 602 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:58,920 Speaker 8: Middle East, the longer, the harder it's going to be 603 00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:01,760 Speaker 8: for the New Zealand to I don't think anybody doubts 604 00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:05,199 Speaker 8: that with the Prime Minister being in Samoa, what has 605 00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:08,679 Speaker 8: held that news conference and had a message aimed at 606 00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:12,680 Speaker 8: soothing those of us who are worried about what she 607 00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:14,320 Speaker 8: says the government is doing on. 608 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:17,800 Speaker 9: Our behalf mitigating the impact on the New Zealand economy, 609 00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:21,840 Speaker 9: including what could potentially be acute cost of living pressures 610 00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:25,200 Speaker 9: for some households. I've spoken to each of the chief 611 00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:28,720 Speaker 9: executives of the major commercial banks and they have assured 612 00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:32,040 Speaker 9: me that in the first instance, they will be providing 613 00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:35,800 Speaker 9: an umbrella to businesses that they already work with to 614 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:38,920 Speaker 9: ensure that they can take them through this challenging time. 615 00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:41,800 Speaker 9: From the government's point of view, we need to ensure 616 00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:47,000 Speaker 9: that any support we provide to households is temporary, is targeted, 617 00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:52,120 Speaker 9: and is timely. Officials have advised us explicitly that reducing 618 00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:55,200 Speaker 9: fuel excize would send the wrong signal at this time 619 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:57,960 Speaker 9: and it would not be sufficiently targeted. 620 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:00,680 Speaker 8: There you go to worry about. 621 00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:03,960 Speaker 2: Okay, have you been speaking to Chris Hopkins's ex wife today. 622 00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:07,560 Speaker 8: I've been in a text conversation with her years she's 623 00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:12,000 Speaker 8: in Fiji at the moment with their two children, and 624 00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:15,720 Speaker 8: what she said to me simply was that she stood 625 00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:19,000 Speaker 8: by everything she said in her Facebook post, and what 626 00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:22,119 Speaker 8: she said in the Facebook post of course, is for 627 00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:25,840 Speaker 8: Chris Hipkins is not complementary, to say the very least 628 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:29,720 Speaker 8: at all. And I see you posing the question is 629 00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:31,119 Speaker 8: what should he do? 630 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:31,280 Speaker 1: What? 631 00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:35,800 Speaker 8: Well, you know, the great difficulty is you'll remember. It 632 00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:40,000 Speaker 8: reminds me a bit of the David Longie Naomi Longie 633 00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:42,880 Speaker 8: fallout that a mate of mine was sitting at a 634 00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:45,160 Speaker 8: desk and the Sunday Star Times and the phone went 635 00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:47,400 Speaker 8: and it was Naomi on the phone. This is after 636 00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:50,080 Speaker 8: he had stepped down and she said he was having 637 00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:53,520 Speaker 8: an affair and suddenly all hell broke loose. Not that 638 00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:55,280 Speaker 8: he had to worry about it because he was no 639 00:28:55,400 --> 00:29:00,440 Speaker 8: longer the Prime minister, but he essentially did nothing. And 640 00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:03,680 Speaker 8: I think you know, when you have issues like this, 641 00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:08,400 Speaker 8: they are damning. Many of the public will know, and 642 00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:11,920 Speaker 8: the gossip machine will be working overtime. Who knows what 643 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:15,440 Speaker 8: social media will do with it. But I think he's 644 00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:18,200 Speaker 8: probably right to keep storm about. 645 00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:21,640 Speaker 2: The whole thing is because he's considering legal actions. Should 646 00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:22,080 Speaker 2: he take it. 647 00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:29,520 Speaker 8: Well, if what his former wife Jade Paul said, and 648 00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:33,280 Speaker 8: she says it's true, you can imagine the dirty linen 649 00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:36,240 Speaker 8: that would come out. I know Jade Paul, she used 650 00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:39,200 Speaker 8: to work around Parliament, a very nice young woman. I 651 00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:42,200 Speaker 8: mean their marriage lasted a very short time. They had 652 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:46,040 Speaker 8: two children in it and was only a couple of years. 653 00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:51,000 Speaker 8: And they got married at Premiere House in twenty twenty when, 654 00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:54,440 Speaker 8: of course Jasin Dardun was the Prime Minister's she was 655 00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:59,240 Speaker 8: there and Grant Robertson was Chippy's best man. So you know, 656 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:03,080 Speaker 8: it's one of those ghastly things because you know a 657 00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:06,240 Speaker 8: lot of people, and I heard you your scenario about 658 00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:09,040 Speaker 8: when people do split up, these terrible things about said 659 00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:12,960 Speaker 8: on either side, and that certainly does happen. I've known 660 00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:17,320 Speaker 8: it over the years. But yeah, if I was him, 661 00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:21,360 Speaker 8: there's no point in him because coming out, because he'll 662 00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:22,240 Speaker 8: simply fuel it. 663 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:25,160 Speaker 2: Yeah he will. Although a good bit of legal action 664 00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:28,360 Speaker 2: sometimes also does indicate that you're if you're fairly confident 665 00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:30,760 Speaker 2: that it's not true. Barry, thanks very much, appreciate it 666 00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:33,200 Speaker 2: very so. For Senior political correspondent eight away from five. 667 00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:38,200 Speaker 2: Here the look for the electric car secondhand market spike 668 00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:40,720 Speaker 2: as soon as petrol returns to normal. Already, electric cars 669 00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:42,880 Speaker 2: appreciate forty percent as soon as they're driven out of 670 00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:44,440 Speaker 2: the car yard, Malc, can we make a good point. 671 00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:46,440 Speaker 2: We are going to talk about that EV subsidy debate 672 00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:47,880 Speaker 2: that's kicking off at the moment. We'll do it at 673 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:51,720 Speaker 2: five twenty five. Just on the Prime Minister and this 674 00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:54,160 Speaker 2: business about him asking for the title. He's been given 675 00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:56,800 Speaker 2: the title that he didn't ask for. It's to we 676 00:30:56,880 --> 00:31:00,360 Speaker 2: Sena ver Maulu Moto or tour. So I is that 677 00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:04,080 Speaker 2: going on the business card? Probably not. They gave him 678 00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:05,920 Speaker 2: an extra long one. I think they were like, you 679 00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:07,880 Speaker 2: you wanted one, here you go. He's a long one, Pier. 680 00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:11,120 Speaker 2: But in all honesty, it sounds very much like I 681 00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:13,760 Speaker 2: know the media over in sar War have been blamed 682 00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:15,720 Speaker 2: for this. It doesn't sound, it doesn't sound at the 683 00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:17,440 Speaker 2: stage like it was their fault. It sounds like it 684 00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:19,960 Speaker 2: came from the Sarmon Prime Minister had gone on the 685 00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:23,640 Speaker 2: radio and said words to this effect, and then it 686 00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:26,480 Speaker 2: has subsequently, you know, has subsequently backtracked from it. So 687 00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:28,640 Speaker 2: if there have to be questions asked, it's presumably of 688 00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:31,760 Speaker 2: him as to what the hell happened there. Now we 689 00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:33,360 Speaker 2: are going to get a bit of data in the 690 00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:36,640 Speaker 2: next few days that's going to tell us how well 691 00:31:36,720 --> 00:31:40,479 Speaker 2: the recovery, the economic recovery was going before the Iran 692 00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:43,640 Speaker 2: War and the air strikes, which of course is historic 693 00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:45,960 Speaker 2: and will not be the case anymore today. The data 694 00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:48,880 Speaker 2: that we've got is the house price data, so it's 695 00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:50,600 Speaker 2: the February numbers that have come out from the Real 696 00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:53,320 Speaker 2: Estate Institute, and what we can tell you is before 697 00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:56,560 Speaker 2: the air strikes, house prices were going up quite nicely, 698 00:31:56,760 --> 00:31:59,040 Speaker 2: thank you very much. The national median price went up 699 00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:01,880 Speaker 2: five point three percent just in one month to seven 700 00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:05,240 Speaker 2: hundred and ninety five thousand dollars. Median prices in thirteen 701 00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:07,920 Speaker 2: of the sixteen regions that are looked at went up. 702 00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:11,400 Speaker 2: Otago went up by the strongest growth thirteen point two percent. 703 00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:14,400 Speaker 2: Even Auckland went up, which is something It rowed six 704 00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:16,880 Speaker 2: point seven percent to one point zero one million. Even 705 00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:20,520 Speaker 2: Wellington went up, we're is saying something more went up 706 00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:23,160 Speaker 2: ten point four percent to eight hundred and five thousand, 707 00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:26,680 Speaker 2: eight hundred dollars. Activity sales activity went up six hundred 708 00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:29,200 Speaker 2: six thousand, five hundred and twenty three sales. That's up 709 00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:31,360 Speaker 2: six point six on the previous month. The trouble, of course, 710 00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:33,960 Speaker 2: is everything that we get from here on in for 711 00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:37,160 Speaker 2: a little bit is historic. The air strikes will probably 712 00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:39,280 Speaker 2: undermine all of the data that we're getting. It doesn't 713 00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:40,640 Speaker 2: mean that it's going to keep going up, but keep 714 00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:42,920 Speaker 2: an eye on that. Retail is another one by the way, 715 00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 2: and we're going to talk to them very shortly on 716 00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:47,200 Speaker 2: how good that was looking just a hot minute ago. 717 00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:48,280 Speaker 2: News talks that be. 718 00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:03,840 Speaker 1: The only drive show you can try to ask the questions, 719 00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:08,400 Speaker 1: get the answers, find the fag and give the analysis. 720 00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:12,120 Speaker 1: Here the duplicy ellan drive with one New Zealand and 721 00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 1: the power of Satellite Mobile News ORGSV. 722 00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:19,440 Speaker 2: Good afternoon here wees are starting to open their wallets again. 723 00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:22,720 Speaker 2: Stat's New Zealand card data show spending rows two point 724 00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:24,920 Speaker 2: four percent in February compared with a year ago. This 725 00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:27,640 Speaker 2: is of course a welcome boost for businesses after a 726 00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:30,880 Speaker 2: tough holiday period and frankly a tough few years. Carolyn 727 00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:34,760 Speaker 2: Young is the CEO of Retail New Zealand. Hi Carolyn Carolder, 728 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:36,160 Speaker 2: how are you doing? I'm very well? Thank you? What 729 00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:37,520 Speaker 2: are the highlights in these numbers for you? 730 00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:40,760 Speaker 16: Look, I think the highlight first year is that we've 731 00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:43,720 Speaker 16: had two positive months in a row. That's we haven't 732 00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:46,680 Speaker 16: seen that in a while. And they're reasonably good numbers, right, 733 00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:49,240 Speaker 16: So it's not like it's zero point one percent increase 734 00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:51,479 Speaker 16: or one point five percent. We had one point one 735 00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:54,080 Speaker 16: percent rise in January, are two point four percent rise 736 00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:58,800 Speaker 16: in February. Now, notwithstanding we might have some headwinds through 737 00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:01,600 Speaker 16: the next month or two, that's a really positive thing 738 00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:04,920 Speaker 16: that we haven't seen for a number of years, and 739 00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:08,400 Speaker 16: you know, generally speaking across most parts of the sector, 740 00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:12,440 Speaker 16: So all retailers would have been feeling slightly better about 741 00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:16,879 Speaker 16: the outlook heading into the year. Obviously, the current term 742 00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:19,840 Speaker 16: all around the international conflict, you know, does put a 743 00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:21,960 Speaker 16: little bit of a dampner on that. But you know, 744 00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:24,600 Speaker 16: let's hope it's a short, sharp thing and we can 745 00:34:24,680 --> 00:34:25,960 Speaker 16: get back to business as usual. 746 00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:28,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I see, hospitals had a bit of a decent boost. 747 00:34:28,080 --> 00:34:30,239 Speaker 2: Now is that us going out more often or is 748 00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:31,520 Speaker 2: that tourism bouncing back. 749 00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:33,279 Speaker 9: It's a bit of both. 750 00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:36,239 Speaker 16: Really, we're seeing, you know, good tourism numbers come through. 751 00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:39,680 Speaker 16: You know, February is a really good month for tourism obviously, 752 00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:43,440 Speaker 16: you know, usually the best weather month in New Zealand, 753 00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:48,160 Speaker 16: so it's good both internally and internally and externally for 754 00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:51,120 Speaker 16: a domestic and international tourism coming in so you know, 755 00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:53,480 Speaker 16: and some great events that are on around that time 756 00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:53,920 Speaker 16: as well. 757 00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:57,680 Speaker 2: Now, how worried are you about what is going on 758 00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:01,000 Speaker 2: and around and it's its ability to de rail our recovery. 759 00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:04,799 Speaker 16: Yeah, look, it is a concern that you can't get 760 00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:08,160 Speaker 16: away from that. We know that, you know the price 761 00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:11,440 Speaker 16: of crude oil has gone from one hundred dollars a 762 00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:13,400 Speaker 16: barrel to one hundred and ninety dollars a barrel in 763 00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:17,399 Speaker 16: a very short period of time, that getting supplies through 764 00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:20,640 Speaker 16: the Strait is really difficult. We know that freight ships 765 00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:23,880 Speaker 16: are stopping in Singapore for longer. The longer they stop 766 00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:26,759 Speaker 16: in Singapore, we know that you know, they're waiting for 767 00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:29,880 Speaker 16: their boats to be full, and then the price of 768 00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:32,719 Speaker 16: getting the boat from Singapore to here will be much 769 00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:36,239 Speaker 16: higher because the fuel price is higher. Alongside that, the 770 00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:40,319 Speaker 16: insurance costs that these businesses for the shipping has risen 771 00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:42,440 Speaker 16: significantly and they are all costs that are going to 772 00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:44,800 Speaker 16: get passed on once it gets to New Zealand. And 773 00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:48,040 Speaker 16: then I think two other quick things. One is we're 774 00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:51,280 Speaker 16: seeing a ten to fifteen percent increased demand and fuel 775 00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:53,440 Speaker 16: at the moment, and that feels like a little bit 776 00:35:53,440 --> 00:35:57,960 Speaker 16: of banic buying. We need everybody to just keep calm 777 00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:00,799 Speaker 16: and just buy what you need so that we make 778 00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:04,560 Speaker 16: sure one that there's fuel for everyone and two that 779 00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:09,080 Speaker 16: for the internal distribution of freight getting across New Zealand 780 00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:11,800 Speaker 16: that there's fuel for those guys. And we don't have 781 00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:14,880 Speaker 16: to have restrictions put on everybody, but we do need 782 00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:18,920 Speaker 16: everybody to get back to their normal spending habits and fuel. 783 00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:21,200 Speaker 2: Restrictions put on everybody, Like you think this is something 784 00:36:21,239 --> 00:36:21,919 Speaker 2: that's going to happen. 785 00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:25,480 Speaker 16: Certainly Mobile have been talking about whether they may need 786 00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:29,320 Speaker 16: to implement some restrictions, you know, if we're for emergency 787 00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:33,920 Speaker 16: services for freight distributors, you know, just really thinking about 788 00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:38,719 Speaker 16: where the fuel is and how quickly we're going through it. 789 00:36:39,080 --> 00:36:41,360 Speaker 16: When you see a ten to fifteen percent demand and 790 00:36:41,440 --> 00:36:44,239 Speaker 16: a number of fuel stations running out of fuel, that 791 00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:48,239 Speaker 16: does cause panic and it does cause other consumers then 792 00:36:48,280 --> 00:36:49,920 Speaker 16: to think I must go out and get more fuel, 793 00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:51,080 Speaker 16: which causes more demand. 794 00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:53,240 Speaker 2: So we really want caroen. 795 00:36:55,160 --> 00:36:57,480 Speaker 16: I heard that today, so I think there is some 796 00:36:57,600 --> 00:37:00,239 Speaker 16: information out there, and I know that Minister Will has 797 00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:02,920 Speaker 16: been talking in cabinet about what are they considering in 798 00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:07,640 Speaker 16: terms of making sure that there is good supply for everyone. 799 00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:11,680 Speaker 2: Listen, just quickly on the citizens arrest thing, Why have 800 00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:14,200 Speaker 2: you guys come out against it when you consider that 801 00:37:14,280 --> 00:37:17,880 Speaker 2: there are dairy owners out there who have their hands 802 00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:20,160 Speaker 2: tied at the moment and can't do anything when they 803 00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:21,280 Speaker 2: are being repeat burgled. 804 00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:25,200 Speaker 16: You know, it's a really complex topic and there are 805 00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:27,560 Speaker 16: lots of things that they can do. What we've said 806 00:37:27,600 --> 00:37:29,560 Speaker 16: to the minister, and we've said to a number of 807 00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:35,319 Speaker 16: other ministers that we're having discussions with, is that if 808 00:37:35,360 --> 00:37:38,560 Speaker 16: you took the current settings of citizens arrest and applied 809 00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:41,399 Speaker 16: them during the daytime, that would work. But we don't 810 00:37:41,480 --> 00:37:44,719 Speaker 16: think that citizens arrest is appropriate for a child. We 811 00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:48,759 Speaker 16: don't think that the right to strike something someone in 812 00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:51,480 Speaker 16: looking at a rest and something is something that we 813 00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:54,640 Speaker 16: want New Zealanders to be able to do. We don't 814 00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:57,520 Speaker 16: think that being able to arrest someone for as little 815 00:37:57,560 --> 00:37:59,640 Speaker 16: as a stealing a bottle of water or a bag 816 00:37:59,640 --> 00:38:02,960 Speaker 16: of Lola versus something more substantive is the right setting. 817 00:38:03,400 --> 00:38:06,839 Speaker 16: So it's about the settings not being right for any 818 00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:08,720 Speaker 16: citizens arrest happening during the daytime. 819 00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:10,480 Speaker 2: All right, Carolyn, thank you very much for your time, 820 00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:14,600 Speaker 2: as Carolyn Young retail end zed Ceo ever do for CLA, 821 00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:18,040 Speaker 2: why aren't we celebrating slow house price growth? We own 822 00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:21,160 Speaker 2: a two million dollar freehold home, but realize continual price 823 00:38:21,239 --> 00:38:23,480 Speaker 2: growth is bad for our children and grandchildren. Look, I 824 00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:24,920 Speaker 2: mean that's a fair point to raise, because I was 825 00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:28,680 Speaker 2: talking before about the house prices going up, about what 826 00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:31,040 Speaker 2: is it nationally about five percent, and how that was 827 00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:35,320 Speaker 2: a good thing. Look, it is a difficult thing, and 828 00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:36,680 Speaker 2: it is one of those ones where you go, yeah, 829 00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:38,279 Speaker 2: you want the prices to go up because of course 830 00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:39,880 Speaker 2: you have a vested interest because you own a home, 831 00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:41,359 Speaker 2: but you don't want it to go up so much 832 00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:43,359 Speaker 2: that your children can't afford to buy houses and then 833 00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:45,600 Speaker 2: leave the country. But the situation that we've got at 834 00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:47,080 Speaker 2: the moment is you've got a whole bunch of people 835 00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:50,440 Speaker 2: who bought at the peak right or thereabouts, and then 836 00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:53,279 Speaker 2: they started doing things like maybe they started renovating their house. 837 00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:56,160 Speaker 2: And I've got people who are sitting in half renovated 838 00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:57,480 Speaker 2: houses and they going, I think we need to get 839 00:38:57,480 --> 00:38:59,239 Speaker 2: out of this and sell it. But if they sold 840 00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:02,920 Speaker 2: it right now, they would end up with nothing. They 841 00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:05,279 Speaker 2: would end up losing money on it, and for that reason, 842 00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:07,400 Speaker 2: there'll be people who will absolutely be cheering on the 843 00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:10,680 Speaker 2: house price increases. But you know, fair point asking that question. Now, 844 00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:13,080 Speaker 2: do we need to talk about the one PMPs press conference? 845 00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:16,920 Speaker 2: Was that a good idea? So I don't know if 846 00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:18,920 Speaker 2: you're aware of it, if you haven't had the alert. 847 00:39:18,960 --> 00:39:21,840 Speaker 2: But Nikola Willis called a one pm press conference today. 848 00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:25,520 Speaker 2: Not an accident, by the way, not an accident. That 849 00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:28,240 Speaker 2: was deliberate. So she held a one pm press conference, 850 00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:30,280 Speaker 2: and also over the weekend she put out an alert 851 00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:34,280 Speaker 2: level system for dealing with fuel shortages which had four levels. 852 00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:37,719 Speaker 2: Also not an accident. This is all deliberate. It is 853 00:39:37,840 --> 00:39:40,640 Speaker 2: designed to mirror COVID, because I'm not not to freak 854 00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:42,560 Speaker 2: you out, like it's not supposed to freak you out, 855 00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:45,080 Speaker 2: like COVID did give you the old anxiety every time 856 00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:46,880 Speaker 2: you sat down to watch the Podium of Truth at 857 00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:49,360 Speaker 2: one o'clock. But it's designed, I think, to kind of 858 00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:56,000 Speaker 2: reflect it, maybe mirror the reassure. How reassuring Jacinda was. 859 00:39:56,920 --> 00:39:59,120 Speaker 2: I'd love to know what you think about that, because 860 00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:02,080 Speaker 2: to a t, every single person I've spoken to about 861 00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:06,200 Speaker 2: that got PTSD today. The people in Auckland who were 862 00:40:06,239 --> 00:40:08,560 Speaker 2: aware of it because well, because we went through it. 863 00:40:08,640 --> 00:40:11,360 Speaker 2: The people in the press gallery had PTSD because of it, 864 00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:12,680 Speaker 2: because they had to live through it as well. I 865 00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:15,239 Speaker 2: don't know, I don't need I don't feel like I 866 00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:17,359 Speaker 2: need to be reminded of COVID. But if it felt 867 00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:20,239 Speaker 2: nice to see a lady with dark hair, long dark 868 00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:23,840 Speaker 2: hair at one o'clock on your TV screen, let me 869 00:40:23,960 --> 00:40:27,400 Speaker 2: know fourteen past five.

Okay, 904 00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:09,680 Speaker 2: so did Timmy Sellam I lose the Oscar because of 905 00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:11,760 Speaker 2: what he said about the old opera and the ballet. 906 00:42:12,880 --> 00:42:15,880 Speaker 17: He did not, and I can definitively say that because 907 00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:22,600 Speaker 17: the voting window had closed prior to him making those comments. 908 00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:26,640 Speaker 17: So we do know that on that particular race, it 909 00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:29,520 Speaker 17: did not have an impact. Now, whether or not that 910 00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:33,680 Speaker 17: will be something that Academy members remember going forward is 911 00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:37,040 Speaker 17: another matter. And there was a ballet front and center, 912 00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:42,560 Speaker 17: literally in front of him on stage as American ballerina 913 00:42:42,719 --> 00:42:46,560 Speaker 17: Misty Copeland, who just had a hip replacement surgery in December, 914 00:42:47,160 --> 00:42:50,080 Speaker 17: one of the most famous ballerinas in the US, if 915 00:42:50,160 --> 00:42:55,360 Speaker 17: not the world, performed during a song from Sinners, and 916 00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:58,719 Speaker 17: from what we were able to see, he was very 917 00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:01,759 Speaker 17: vocal in his court and the plodding getting up on 918 00:43:01,880 --> 00:43:05,800 Speaker 17: his feet as quickly as possible there because. 919 00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:07,759 Speaker 2: You will watching now, I thought it was Sinners that 920 00:43:07,840 --> 00:43:09,680 Speaker 2: was supposed to take out best picture, wasn't it? 921 00:43:10,600 --> 00:43:12,920 Speaker 17: It was a close. It was a close race, one 922 00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:16,800 Speaker 17: battle after another. Had been pretty much the front runner 923 00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:20,840 Speaker 17: for a while, but Sinners was the you know, the 924 00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:25,040 Speaker 17: Ran ended up becoming the Ran also the also ran candidate, 925 00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:29,239 Speaker 17: but it was neck and neck until I think really 926 00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:33,080 Speaker 17: going into this evening we didn't know. But certain categories, 927 00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:37,240 Speaker 17: ones that you might not look at normally, but Best Editing, 928 00:43:37,360 --> 00:43:41,560 Speaker 17: for example, when that goes a certain way and it's 929 00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:44,520 Speaker 17: a close race, and that went for one battle after another, 930 00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:47,960 Speaker 17: then that was pretty much sewing it up. The big 931 00:43:48,120 --> 00:43:52,120 Speaker 17: surprise for sinners tonight was of course Michael B. Jordan's 932 00:43:52,160 --> 00:43:56,239 Speaker 17: win in Best Actor. Now, even if it hadn't been 933 00:43:56,760 --> 00:44:01,879 Speaker 17: Timothy Shallomey, there was really not an expectation. I don't 934 00:44:01,920 --> 00:44:05,800 Speaker 17: think that Michael B Jordan was by any means a 935 00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:10,239 Speaker 17: lock or even considered in the front runner category. It 936 00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:13,200 Speaker 17: was kind of looked at between Leonardo DiCaprio for one 937 00:44:13,239 --> 00:44:17,759 Speaker 17: Battle after another and possibly Timothy Shallomey because not just 938 00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:22,520 Speaker 17: of his performance, but he has been producing a you know, 939 00:44:22,719 --> 00:44:26,400 Speaker 17: a body of work consistently being nominated, and the Academy 940 00:44:26,520 --> 00:44:29,040 Speaker 17: does pay attention to that. But he got a lot 941 00:44:29,120 --> 00:44:31,800 Speaker 17: of love in the room and online. 942 00:44:32,040 --> 00:44:34,440 Speaker 2: Hey, just very quickly, I love GC Buckley. I'm so 943 00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:36,600 Speaker 2: stoked she got the Oscars the stuff for her. 944 00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:40,279 Speaker 17: Yes, I mean it was a first of all, she 945 00:44:40,320 --> 00:44:41,600 Speaker 17: also had the best speech of the night, So she 946 00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:43,640 Speaker 17: wins the Oscar for best Speech of the night. On 947 00:44:43,800 --> 00:44:45,320 Speaker 17: top of that, that should be a separate one that 948 00:44:45,360 --> 00:44:47,800 Speaker 17: I'm gonna start handing out. But yeah, I think that 949 00:44:47,960 --> 00:44:53,960 Speaker 17: this is a real crowning moment for her and I 950 00:44:54,120 --> 00:44:56,360 Speaker 17: joke about the speech, but the speech as well showed 951 00:44:56,400 --> 00:45:00,600 Speaker 17: her as this very sort of funny person that isn't 952 00:45:00,680 --> 00:45:03,400 Speaker 17: necessarily maybe what you see in Hamlet, which made me 953 00:45:03,480 --> 00:45:05,920 Speaker 17: cry my eyes out. But she had a great line 954 00:45:06,120 --> 00:45:08,080 Speaker 17: talking to her husband saying, I want to make I 955 00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:10,480 Speaker 17: want to have twenty thousand more babies with you. And 956 00:45:10,960 --> 00:45:15,919 Speaker 17: that is the type of a character that viewers will 957 00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:18,320 Speaker 17: want to you know, you hear that, you see that, 958 00:45:18,719 --> 00:45:21,239 Speaker 17: and it makes you want to connect with them and 959 00:45:21,320 --> 00:45:23,399 Speaker 17: see more of their work. And she has, of course 960 00:45:23,440 --> 00:45:24,319 Speaker 17: the chants to back it up. 961 00:45:24,400 --> 00:45:26,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, she's awesome. Hey, Sean, thank you. Has always appreciated 962 00:45:26,560 --> 00:45:28,799 Speaker 2: to make sure Mandel senior reporter People Magazine. And by 963 00:45:28,840 --> 00:45:32,120 Speaker 2: the way, Leonardo DiCaprio hard launched his girlfriend, who's an 964 00:45:32,160 --> 00:45:35,520 Speaker 2: Italian supermodel. So there's some more stuff that happened. 965 00:45:37,280 --> 00:45:40,000 Speaker 1: Cutting through the noise to get the facts, it's hill 966 00:45:40,160 --> 00:45:44,040 Speaker 1: duplicy Ellen Drive with One New Zealand coverage like no 967 00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:46,560 Speaker 1: one else News talks they'd be hither. 968 00:45:46,680 --> 00:45:48,719 Speaker 2: It feels like a return to COVID. Going past the 969 00:45:48,719 --> 00:45:51,120 Speaker 2: petrol stations, watching people fill up the little red cans, 970 00:45:51,120 --> 00:45:53,239 Speaker 2: A big reminder of the toilet paper days too. Right, 971 00:45:54,120 --> 00:45:56,279 Speaker 2: Niicola Willis is with us actually after six o'clock, so 972 00:45:56,280 --> 00:45:58,719 Speaker 2: we'll have a chat to her about that. Five twenty five. 973 00:45:58,800 --> 00:46:02,880 Speaker 2: Now the government is coppying heat today for canceling the 974 00:46:02,960 --> 00:46:05,080 Speaker 2: ev subsidy a couple of years ago, because it now 975 00:46:05,120 --> 00:46:07,600 Speaker 2: looks like a mistake, because with the oil price going 976 00:46:07,680 --> 00:46:09,440 Speaker 2: up and the petrol price as a result going up, 977 00:46:09,440 --> 00:46:11,160 Speaker 2: wouldn't it be better, of course, if all of us 978 00:46:11,200 --> 00:46:13,799 Speaker 2: were in electric vehicles, which we would have been if 979 00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:16,360 Speaker 2: the government hadn't canceled the subsidy at the end of 980 00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:19,239 Speaker 2: twenty twenty three. Now, let me tell you why it 981 00:46:19,360 --> 00:46:21,360 Speaker 2: was not a mistake to cancel it, Why what is 982 00:46:21,400 --> 00:46:23,239 Speaker 2: happening right now proves it, and why the lovies who 983 00:46:23,280 --> 00:46:25,520 Speaker 2: are saying this are wrong. What's important is that we're 984 00:46:25,520 --> 00:46:28,360 Speaker 2: specific in this argument about who it would be who'd 985 00:46:28,400 --> 00:46:31,360 Speaker 2: be owning those electric vehicles if that Tesla subsidy had continued. 986 00:46:31,600 --> 00:46:33,160 Speaker 2: It wouldn't be the workers living all the way out 987 00:46:33,200 --> 00:46:35,080 Speaker 2: in Pocono driving all the way into the city, all 988 00:46:35,160 --> 00:46:37,040 Speaker 2: the way out in silver Stream and Wellington driving into 989 00:46:37,040 --> 00:46:39,239 Speaker 2: the city. It wouldn't be the solo mums trying to 990 00:46:39,239 --> 00:46:42,520 Speaker 2: make ends meet they can't afford newvy EV's. It would 991 00:46:42,520 --> 00:46:45,120 Speaker 2: be the well healed people living in central city leafy 992 00:46:45,280 --> 00:46:47,759 Speaker 2: suburbs who would have had eight grand knocked off the 993 00:46:47,800 --> 00:46:50,360 Speaker 2: price of their nice new cars. Those are not the 994 00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:52,719 Speaker 2: people who need to be helped when the fuel price 995 00:46:52,760 --> 00:46:54,800 Speaker 2: shoots up. So if we were going to do something 996 00:46:55,840 --> 00:46:58,400 Speaker 2: like this, maybe repeat some government help, wouldn't it be 997 00:46:58,520 --> 00:47:00,800 Speaker 2: much more useful if we took the six hundred and 998 00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:04,040 Speaker 2: twenty million dollars that we helped nice people into their little, 999 00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:07,359 Speaker 2: nice cars with and instead redirected that towards people who 1000 00:47:07,400 --> 00:47:11,200 Speaker 2: were poorer instead. The proof of why we didn't need 1001 00:47:11,280 --> 00:47:13,120 Speaker 2: to have that subsidy to this point is in what 1002 00:47:13,239 --> 00:47:16,120 Speaker 2: is happening right now. I told you earlier BYD sold 1003 00:47:16,239 --> 00:47:19,600 Speaker 2: eighty cars in New Zealand on Saturday alone. They sold 1004 00:47:19,920 --> 00:47:23,920 Speaker 2: eight hundred cars on Saturday in Australia alone. That is 1005 00:47:24,120 --> 00:47:26,160 Speaker 2: in New Zealand at least without the subsidy. Which is 1006 00:47:26,200 --> 00:47:28,359 Speaker 2: to say that when rich people decide that they want 1007 00:47:28,400 --> 00:47:30,879 Speaker 2: themselves a nice little EV they will go and buy 1008 00:47:30,960 --> 00:47:33,839 Speaker 2: it without government help. They don't need government help. They 1009 00:47:33,920 --> 00:47:36,360 Speaker 2: just have to want EV's And they didn't want evs 1010 00:47:36,400 --> 00:47:38,520 Speaker 2: before because it didn't stack up for them until the 1011 00:47:38,560 --> 00:47:40,600 Speaker 2: fuel price went up. Now, look, I do think that 1012 00:47:40,640 --> 00:47:43,040 Speaker 2: there is a place here for government help in this 1013 00:47:43,360 --> 00:47:46,000 Speaker 2: crisis if we find ourselves in something that gets worse. 1014 00:47:46,200 --> 00:47:48,000 Speaker 2: But it's not for rich people. It's not to help 1015 00:47:48,040 --> 00:47:50,040 Speaker 2: them get new cars. It's for poorer people who will 1016 00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:52,160 Speaker 2: actually be the ones who will be stung by the 1017 00:47:52,200 --> 00:47:54,719 Speaker 2: petrol prices if they keep on rising. So no, it 1018 00:47:54,800 --> 00:47:59,000 Speaker 2: actually was not a mistake to cut the subsidy byds 1019 00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:00,680 Speaker 2: sold in New Zealand on Saturday. 1020 00:48:00,800 --> 00:48:05,680 Speaker 1: Is your proof, Heather Duplicy Ellen, ummm, we. 1021 00:48:05,760 --> 00:48:07,799 Speaker 2: Are going Oh gosh, the government's in court as if 1022 00:48:07,840 --> 00:48:09,760 Speaker 2: you needed to hear this is probably this is probably 1023 00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:13,560 Speaker 2: actually related in some weird way. The government is defending 1024 00:48:13,640 --> 00:48:16,279 Speaker 2: its carbon emissions. It's been taken to the High Court. 1025 00:48:16,360 --> 00:48:17,919 Speaker 2: This is the plan for how you cut the carbon 1026 00:48:17,960 --> 00:48:20,520 Speaker 2: emissions now that the EV subsidies out of it probably 1027 00:48:20,560 --> 00:48:22,040 Speaker 2: doesn't look as good anyway. I've been taken to the 1028 00:48:22,120 --> 00:48:24,399 Speaker 2: High Court in Wellington by the lawyers for Climate Action. 1029 00:48:25,040 --> 00:48:26,680 Speaker 2: One of them will be with us straight after the news, 1030 00:48:26,680 --> 00:48:28,840 Speaker 2: which is coming up newstorgsb. 1031 00:48:32,960 --> 00:48:37,560 Speaker 1: Hard questions strong opinion, Heather Duplicy Ellen Drive with One 1032 00:48:37,680 --> 00:48:41,319 Speaker 1: New Zealand and the power of satellite mobile news dogs b. 1033 00:48:47,880 --> 00:48:49,840 Speaker 2: Listen to us after six o'clock and of course we 1034 00:48:49,920 --> 00:48:52,160 Speaker 2: have the Huddles standing by. We have Joseph BEGANI and 1035 00:48:52,200 --> 00:48:55,360 Speaker 2: phill o'reiley this evening. Listen. If you don't like I 1036 00:48:55,400 --> 00:48:57,399 Speaker 2: was gonna say, if you don't like petrol companies, you're 1037 00:48:57,440 --> 00:49:00,239 Speaker 2: not but that's pretty much everybody. So just to assume 1038 00:49:00,239 --> 00:49:01,520 Speaker 2: you're not going to like the news I'm about to 1039 00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:03,560 Speaker 2: give you, BP and Shell are probably going to make 1040 00:49:03,640 --> 00:49:07,120 Speaker 2: five billion dollars worth of profit from the oil crisis 1041 00:49:07,160 --> 00:49:09,160 Speaker 2: that we're in at the moment. Now, will you'll well, 1042 00:49:09,200 --> 00:49:12,080 Speaker 2: this is counter counterintuitive because of course they're making losses 1043 00:49:12,120 --> 00:49:15,000 Speaker 2: in the Middle East, yes they are, but they are 1044 00:49:15,080 --> 00:49:17,719 Speaker 2: making profits on the oil that they get from everywhere else. 1045 00:49:17,760 --> 00:49:19,640 Speaker 2: And of course they do get oil from everywhere else 1046 00:49:19,680 --> 00:49:21,560 Speaker 2: as well, and the profits that they get on that 1047 00:49:21,640 --> 00:49:25,080 Speaker 2: oil outweighs the losses so very much in the pink 1048 00:49:25,120 --> 00:49:27,919 Speaker 2: at the moment, twenty four away from six. Now, let's 1049 00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:30,440 Speaker 2: keep talking about the climate, because I suppose it is related. 1050 00:49:30,480 --> 00:49:33,120 Speaker 2: The Government is defending its climate plans in court today. 1051 00:49:33,239 --> 00:49:36,320 Speaker 2: Lawyers for Climate Action and the Environmental Law Initiative have 1052 00:49:36,480 --> 00:49:38,560 Speaker 2: taken the government to the High Court in Wellington, accusing 1053 00:49:38,600 --> 00:49:40,960 Speaker 2: it of failing to meet its lawful obligations when it 1054 00:49:41,000 --> 00:49:44,880 Speaker 2: approved the emissions reduction plan. Jessica Paleray is the executive 1055 00:49:44,880 --> 00:49:49,319 Speaker 2: director of Lawyers for Climate Action and is with us Jessica, Hello, Hi, Heather. 1056 00:49:49,680 --> 00:49:52,520 Speaker 2: What are you saying that they've done which is illegal? 1057 00:49:52,560 --> 00:49:54,160 Speaker 2: What is it that they've done which is unlawful? 1058 00:49:55,440 --> 00:49:56,960 Speaker 12: Yeah, there's a few aspects to it. 1059 00:49:57,480 --> 00:49:59,920 Speaker 4: The most basic point is that the government continues to 1060 00:50:00,480 --> 00:50:02,840 Speaker 4: that it's committed to meeting our climate targets and that 1061 00:50:02,920 --> 00:50:03,680 Speaker 4: we're on track. 1062 00:50:04,239 --> 00:50:07,200 Speaker 2: But in this case, what we're asking is is that true? 1063 00:50:07,360 --> 00:50:10,160 Speaker 4: Does the government's plan really stack up? Or is it 1064 00:50:10,239 --> 00:50:12,879 Speaker 4: fudging the numbers and taking New Zealand on a high 1065 00:50:13,000 --> 00:50:17,080 Speaker 4: risk and expensive path forward when we're presenting evidence that 1066 00:50:17,160 --> 00:50:19,360 Speaker 4: shows that our chance of meeting the targets is a 1067 00:50:19,400 --> 00:50:21,160 Speaker 4: little better than a coin toss, and that for some 1068 00:50:21,280 --> 00:50:24,440 Speaker 4: of our future targets we're actually off track. So we're 1069 00:50:24,560 --> 00:50:28,080 Speaker 4: arguing that the law requires more, it requires a less 1070 00:50:28,280 --> 00:50:31,840 Speaker 4: risky approach when it comes to our climate response, and 1071 00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:33,960 Speaker 4: that the government should go back and do a better job. 1072 00:50:34,200 --> 00:50:37,000 Speaker 2: Okay, So if you win this court case, what is 1073 00:50:37,040 --> 00:50:39,240 Speaker 2: the practical outcome of it. Will they have to redo 1074 00:50:39,360 --> 00:50:39,840 Speaker 2: the numbers? 1075 00:50:40,960 --> 00:50:43,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, they may need to redo parts of the plan. 1076 00:50:43,440 --> 00:50:47,120 Speaker 4: We're also seeking decorations what should the law be, because 1077 00:50:47,120 --> 00:50:49,920 Speaker 4: at some points it's actually unclear and we disagree with 1078 00:50:50,000 --> 00:50:52,160 Speaker 4: the government on what the law is. These are things 1079 00:50:52,200 --> 00:50:55,000 Speaker 4: that have never been tested before. It's a really novel 1080 00:50:55,320 --> 00:50:57,759 Speaker 4: first of its client case in New Zealand. So we're 1081 00:50:57,800 --> 00:51:00,640 Speaker 4: clarifying the law and we're going to lay down what 1082 00:51:00,800 --> 00:51:02,920 Speaker 4: has to be done in the future to make sure 1083 00:51:02,960 --> 00:51:05,960 Speaker 4: that New Zealand is on track and ultimately require the 1084 00:51:05,960 --> 00:51:08,160 Speaker 4: government to go back and do a better job on 1085 00:51:08,239 --> 00:51:08,600 Speaker 4: its plan. 1086 00:51:08,760 --> 00:51:10,640 Speaker 2: Okay, So let's say that you win this court case 1087 00:51:10,680 --> 00:51:12,480 Speaker 2: and they are forced to go and do the numbers 1088 00:51:12,520 --> 00:51:14,759 Speaker 2: all over again, and that there is a short fall 1089 00:51:15,360 --> 00:51:18,880 Speaker 2: and it's proved what happens, then. 1090 00:51:20,560 --> 00:51:24,120 Speaker 4: Well, we'll then scrutinize whether the new plan passes muster 1091 00:51:24,280 --> 00:51:26,279 Speaker 4: and if it does, then that's great. These kinds of 1092 00:51:26,360 --> 00:51:28,759 Speaker 4: challenges have actually happened all around the world. So in 1093 00:51:28,840 --> 00:51:32,279 Speaker 4: the UK the government was challenged two times on its 1094 00:51:32,360 --> 00:51:34,480 Speaker 4: plan and had to go back two times and do 1095 00:51:34,560 --> 00:51:37,120 Speaker 4: a better job. They just released another plan earlier this year, 1096 00:51:37,360 --> 00:51:40,040 Speaker 4: and that plan actually appears to pass muster. But this 1097 00:51:40,239 --> 00:51:43,080 Speaker 4: kind of challenge, this kind of accountability is critical. So 1098 00:51:43,160 --> 00:51:46,239 Speaker 4: we've got climate targets that we've got legal obligations to 1099 00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:49,719 Speaker 4: meet and that actually the government can't just say that 1100 00:51:49,800 --> 00:51:51,759 Speaker 4: it's going to meet them. It has to really have 1101 00:51:51,960 --> 00:51:55,279 Speaker 4: robust analysis and evidence behind them, and that's what this 1102 00:51:55,400 --> 00:51:55,680 Speaker 4: case was. 1103 00:51:55,880 --> 00:51:58,840 Speaker 2: So essentially, if it has proved that they have not 1104 00:51:59,000 --> 00:52:01,759 Speaker 2: actually been as robust and the numbers as they say 1105 00:52:01,800 --> 00:52:05,160 Speaker 2: they are, they may be forced to actually enforce more 1106 00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:08,320 Speaker 2: cuts elsewhere, like they may be forced to kind of 1107 00:52:08,360 --> 00:52:10,879 Speaker 2: beef up their climate reaction. Would that be fair. 1108 00:52:11,800 --> 00:52:14,279 Speaker 4: Yeah, we think that's actually a really good thing if 1109 00:52:14,320 --> 00:52:18,520 Speaker 4: that is what happens. What happens then, I mean, look, 1110 00:52:18,520 --> 00:52:21,600 Speaker 4: the government can always change the law, so they could 1111 00:52:21,680 --> 00:52:23,840 Speaker 4: weaken it if they want to, but that's really not 1112 00:52:23,960 --> 00:52:27,040 Speaker 4: in New Zealand's interests here. I mean, we've got obligations, 1113 00:52:27,160 --> 00:52:30,120 Speaker 4: just like almost every other country in the world, to 1114 00:52:30,719 --> 00:52:33,799 Speaker 4: try do our best to cut emissions. I mean, there's 1115 00:52:33,840 --> 00:52:36,359 Speaker 4: some irony that we're in court this week making these 1116 00:52:36,440 --> 00:52:39,000 Speaker 4: arguments at a time in New Zealanders are paying huge 1117 00:52:39,120 --> 00:52:41,800 Speaker 4: prices at the petrol pump. And this is relevant because 1118 00:52:41,840 --> 00:52:44,239 Speaker 4: part of our case is actually challenging the way that 1119 00:52:44,320 --> 00:52:48,520 Speaker 4: the government has just gutted climate policy after climate policy 1120 00:52:48,880 --> 00:52:51,720 Speaker 4: policies that would have made it cheaper to buy evs, 1121 00:52:51,760 --> 00:52:54,640 Speaker 4: that would have reduced our reliance on imported oil and gas. 1122 00:52:55,239 --> 00:52:58,760 Speaker 4: These kinds of decisions actually impact New Zealanders and we're seeing, 1123 00:52:59,640 --> 00:53:02,760 Speaker 4: you know, whether it's the extreme devastating weather events earlier 1124 00:53:02,840 --> 00:53:05,400 Speaker 4: this year, whether it's the super high price of petrol 1125 00:53:05,440 --> 00:53:07,800 Speaker 4: and the fact that we don't have good transport policies 1126 00:53:08,160 --> 00:53:11,040 Speaker 4: that help us electrofy our transport fleet. 1127 00:53:11,400 --> 00:53:12,800 Speaker 2: We're seeing the effects. 1128 00:53:12,440 --> 00:53:14,160 Speaker 4: Of those and what they mean for New Zealander is 1129 00:53:14,239 --> 00:53:16,600 Speaker 4: here and now and really at its heart, that's what 1130 00:53:16,719 --> 00:53:17,480 Speaker 4: this case is about. 1131 00:53:17,600 --> 00:53:19,239 Speaker 2: Good stuff. Jessica, lovely to talk to you. Thank you 1132 00:53:19,320 --> 00:53:22,280 Speaker 2: so much. Jessica Paleray, who's Lawyers for Climate Actions, Executive 1133 00:53:22,320 --> 00:53:23,800 Speaker 2: Director's twenty away from six. 1134 00:53:24,280 --> 00:53:27,600 Speaker 1: The Huddle with New Zealand. Southeby's International Realty A name 1135 00:53:27,680 --> 00:53:30,160 Speaker 1: you can trust locally and globally. 1136 00:53:29,960 --> 00:53:32,360 Speaker 2: All with us this evening. Fillo Riley Iron Duke Partners 1137 00:53:32,440 --> 00:53:34,920 Speaker 2: and former Business New Zealand chief executive and JOSEPHC. Ghanney, 1138 00:53:34,960 --> 00:53:39,080 Speaker 2: the chief executive of Child Fund. Hi you turn hello, good, 1139 00:53:39,120 --> 00:53:41,080 Speaker 2: thank you? Okay, Josie, So what do you think should 1140 00:53:41,120 --> 00:53:43,160 Speaker 2: we or should we not have pulled the Tesla subsidy? 1141 00:53:44,120 --> 00:53:45,200 Speaker 2: Absolutely we should have. 1142 00:53:45,320 --> 00:53:48,520 Speaker 18: We're not going to solve, as you quite rightly said, Hither, 1143 00:53:48,600 --> 00:53:52,600 Speaker 18: We're not going to solve climate change issues by subsidizing 1144 00:53:53,560 --> 00:53:56,040 Speaker 18: wealthy people to buy eighty thousand dollars teslas. 1145 00:53:56,400 --> 00:53:58,480 Speaker 2: I did get a text here though, from somebody saying, 1146 00:53:58,520 --> 00:54:01,000 Speaker 2: hither are you an idiot? The whole point of it 1147 00:54:01,239 --> 00:54:03,320 Speaker 2: is to get the more of these evs into the 1148 00:54:03,360 --> 00:54:05,520 Speaker 2: country so that poor people can buy them secondhand. 1149 00:54:05,800 --> 00:54:07,759 Speaker 18: Oh well, come on, I mean that's a long way 1150 00:54:07,840 --> 00:54:10,360 Speaker 18: off because the technology isn't there yet. I know people 1151 00:54:10,600 --> 00:54:12,520 Speaker 18: who are friends of mine who don't have a lot 1152 00:54:12,560 --> 00:54:14,840 Speaker 18: of money who tried to buy a secondhand EV and 1153 00:54:14,920 --> 00:54:16,040 Speaker 18: the batteries are munted. 1154 00:54:16,160 --> 00:54:20,200 Speaker 2: Right, It's just we're not there yet. But I mean, honestly, 1155 00:54:20,480 --> 00:54:20,759 Speaker 2: I've just. 1156 00:54:20,800 --> 00:54:23,080 Speaker 18: Listened to an interview. Then, when you're taking this stuff 1157 00:54:23,120 --> 00:54:26,400 Speaker 18: into a court. The court is not the place for activism. 1158 00:54:26,680 --> 00:54:29,640 Speaker 18: I mean, that's a climate activist right now. 1159 00:54:29,680 --> 00:54:31,399 Speaker 2: But is there not a place for this, Jose Because 1160 00:54:31,400 --> 00:54:33,440 Speaker 2: I was listening to Jessica, and the thing is, I 1161 00:54:33,840 --> 00:54:36,920 Speaker 2: probably and I probably agree with Jessica on this that 1162 00:54:37,040 --> 00:54:40,239 Speaker 2: the whole climate emissions reduction plan is a sham. It 1163 00:54:40,360 --> 00:54:42,160 Speaker 2: is not going to do what they say it's going 1164 00:54:42,239 --> 00:54:43,759 Speaker 2: to do. We are not going to meet our twenty 1165 00:54:43,800 --> 00:54:46,040 Speaker 2: thirty five target. We're not going to meet our twenty 1166 00:54:46,080 --> 00:54:48,640 Speaker 2: fifty target. I'm happy with that. Jessica sad about that, 1167 00:54:49,200 --> 00:54:51,880 Speaker 2: but what it is doing, what she's doing is the 1168 00:54:51,960 --> 00:54:54,439 Speaker 2: same as what's happened to some other private companies, which 1169 00:54:54,480 --> 00:54:56,920 Speaker 2: is the green washers washing is being exposed to I'm 1170 00:54:56,920 --> 00:54:58,759 Speaker 2: okay with that, and she's absolutely right with that. 1171 00:54:58,920 --> 00:55:01,200 Speaker 18: Yeah, but you've got we've got to decide what we're doing. 1172 00:55:01,239 --> 00:55:04,920 Speaker 18: Either we're doing behavior change, I buy an EV and 1173 00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:09,960 Speaker 18: don't buy a ute. Yeah, al, we're subsidizing stuff, subsidize 1174 00:55:09,960 --> 00:55:12,640 Speaker 18: the evs, or we're giving the ETS scheme a chance 1175 00:55:12,719 --> 00:55:15,120 Speaker 18: to work. And the ETS scheme sets a cap for 1176 00:55:15,239 --> 00:55:17,960 Speaker 18: carbon admissions, so Jessica and all of us can have 1177 00:55:18,040 --> 00:55:21,880 Speaker 18: a say in that politically, that's a political decision, and 1178 00:55:21,960 --> 00:55:25,160 Speaker 18: then how those admissions are divvied up in society, whether 1179 00:55:25,200 --> 00:55:27,400 Speaker 18: it's businesses or you and I driving. 1180 00:55:27,120 --> 00:55:29,160 Speaker 2: A car, or we can do nothing that we can 1181 00:55:29,200 --> 00:55:29,440 Speaker 2: do enough. 1182 00:55:29,520 --> 00:55:32,600 Speaker 18: Yeah, but the ETS is a market solution, which actually 1183 00:55:32,880 --> 00:55:34,360 Speaker 18: we need to get to a false market. 1184 00:55:34,520 --> 00:55:37,759 Speaker 2: But we could also do nothing better than subsidies. Right, well, yeah, 1185 00:55:37,760 --> 00:55:38,920 Speaker 2: everything's better than a subsidy. 1186 00:55:39,000 --> 00:55:41,640 Speaker 12: What do you think, Phil, Well, A problem here, I 1187 00:55:41,680 --> 00:55:44,920 Speaker 12: think is, as Jersey said, it's actually about activist lawyers 1188 00:55:44,960 --> 00:55:47,600 Speaker 12: going off to the court to get a declaration when 1189 00:55:47,719 --> 00:55:49,680 Speaker 12: actually what should be happening is the public should be 1190 00:55:49,760 --> 00:55:52,080 Speaker 12: voting on the various options here. The government should stand 1191 00:55:52,120 --> 00:55:54,560 Speaker 12: up and say, here's what we're doing as a matter 1192 00:55:54,600 --> 00:55:56,480 Speaker 12: of intense politics, because of course it goes to the 1193 00:55:56,600 --> 00:55:59,000 Speaker 12: costs that you and I pay for our home heating, 1194 00:55:59,160 --> 00:56:02,080 Speaker 12: for our fuel at the PALMP, the choices that we make. 1195 00:56:02,480 --> 00:56:04,680 Speaker 12: I don't think those choices are best decided by judges, 1196 00:56:04,719 --> 00:56:06,800 Speaker 12: and I don't think, in fact, anything like that is 1197 00:56:06,800 --> 00:56:09,080 Speaker 12: best decided by judges. It should be decided by politicians 1198 00:56:09,360 --> 00:56:11,279 Speaker 12: if they put their case forward and people vote for it. 1199 00:56:11,480 --> 00:56:13,719 Speaker 12: And I think that's the worry here that you actually 1200 00:56:13,760 --> 00:56:17,919 Speaker 12: diminish I think the kind of the apolitical nature of courts, 1201 00:56:17,960 --> 00:56:21,640 Speaker 12: because you dragged them into activism. And of course the 1202 00:56:21,680 --> 00:56:24,000 Speaker 12: speaker noted that this is happening all over the world. Yeah, 1203 00:56:24,000 --> 00:56:27,040 Speaker 12: there's a reason for that, because nobody told in their 1204 00:56:27,080 --> 00:56:29,759 Speaker 12: climate targets right now. So this law fair stuff that's 1205 00:56:29,760 --> 00:56:31,919 Speaker 12: going around the world, I think just diminishes the whole 1206 00:56:31,920 --> 00:56:33,840 Speaker 12: issue and actually gets away from what the people should 1207 00:56:33,880 --> 00:56:36,399 Speaker 12: be doing, which is holding politicians to account for their 1208 00:56:36,520 --> 00:56:38,320 Speaker 12: version of what should be going on in terms of 1209 00:56:38,360 --> 00:56:39,280 Speaker 12: climate change policy. 1210 00:56:39,680 --> 00:56:42,439 Speaker 2: Phil did you at one o'clock this afternoon, sit down, 1211 00:56:42,520 --> 00:56:45,200 Speaker 2: put on your slippers, pour yourself a nice gin, tune 1212 00:56:45,280 --> 00:56:48,880 Speaker 2: into the tally watch dark haired woman delivering. 1213 00:56:48,560 --> 00:56:51,720 Speaker 12: Some news someone I staffed. And I've walked in halfway 1214 00:56:51,719 --> 00:56:53,879 Speaker 12: through it or looked it will sounded very very nice 1215 00:56:53,920 --> 00:56:58,160 Speaker 12: and very very government, and I thought it was. I 1216 00:56:58,200 --> 00:56:59,839 Speaker 12: thought it was delivered very well, that it was still 1217 00:56:59,880 --> 00:57:02,520 Speaker 12: a very soberly and sensibly you know, but it is 1218 00:57:02,560 --> 00:57:06,200 Speaker 12: an opportunity for government to look governmental. And I think 1219 00:57:06,280 --> 00:57:08,279 Speaker 12: I think this did a good job today. I think 1220 00:57:08,360 --> 00:57:11,800 Speaker 12: she said things that were sober and sensible and hopefully 1221 00:57:11,840 --> 00:57:13,880 Speaker 12: would have made people think, okay, well, the government's going 1222 00:57:13,920 --> 00:57:16,320 Speaker 12: to handle on this. That's fine, So you know it's 1223 00:57:16,400 --> 00:57:19,080 Speaker 12: it's it's reasonably sensible. It was a good job. 1224 00:57:19,280 --> 00:57:20,680 Speaker 2: You must have got PTSD. 1225 00:57:20,960 --> 00:57:23,680 Speaker 18: I was literally seconds away from expecting her to sing 1226 00:57:23,720 --> 00:57:27,000 Speaker 18: Happy Birthday and while washing her hands or something. 1227 00:57:27,200 --> 00:57:27,720 Speaker 1: It was good. 1228 00:57:28,000 --> 00:57:29,800 Speaker 18: And the thing that got me was not so much 1229 00:57:29,840 --> 00:57:32,640 Speaker 18: of the podium and a woman with her. 1230 00:57:32,640 --> 00:57:34,480 Speaker 12: She wasn't at the podium jersey. She was in the office, 1231 00:57:34,520 --> 00:57:35,200 Speaker 12: So it wasn't it. 1232 00:57:35,240 --> 00:57:41,600 Speaker 18: The metaphoric podium speaking to the nation. Is that this 1233 00:57:41,800 --> 00:57:43,760 Speaker 18: is all the same stuff that we saw at COVID, 1234 00:57:43,800 --> 00:57:46,320 Speaker 18: right where you were looking at government officials to tell 1235 00:57:46,400 --> 00:57:48,800 Speaker 18: you how to deal with a crisis. That actually we 1236 00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:51,640 Speaker 18: learned in COVID. One thing we learned government officials with 1237 00:57:51,760 --> 00:57:54,600 Speaker 18: best intentions in the world do not know how to 1238 00:57:54,680 --> 00:57:59,040 Speaker 18: solve big problems like COVID or fuel prices now and 1239 00:57:59,160 --> 00:57:59,920 Speaker 18: supply of oils. 1240 00:58:00,080 --> 00:58:02,320 Speaker 12: So the need to perspect they do they how to 1241 00:58:02,360 --> 00:58:03,400 Speaker 12: solve it, because it's not that hard. 1242 00:58:03,960 --> 00:58:06,280 Speaker 18: But Phil, the people who know how to solve this 1243 00:58:06,520 --> 00:58:09,200 Speaker 18: are the companies that need the oil and need the 1244 00:58:09,280 --> 00:58:11,800 Speaker 18: fuel and so's there's all sorts of things they could say. 1245 00:58:11,840 --> 00:58:14,800 Speaker 18: They could say, right private sector we're warning you you 1246 00:58:14,920 --> 00:58:17,480 Speaker 18: better start making arrangements. We're here to help. Maybe the 1247 00:58:17,520 --> 00:58:20,040 Speaker 18: government can hedge if you're going to bring in you 1248 00:58:20,120 --> 00:58:23,120 Speaker 18: know you're going to buy some tankers of fuel. Get together, 1249 00:58:23,280 --> 00:58:25,680 Speaker 18: let's solve this problem. Let's talk to the private sector. 1250 00:58:25,880 --> 00:58:27,640 Speaker 18: But you're not going to get Nby to solve it. 1251 00:58:27,720 --> 00:58:29,200 Speaker 18: You're not going to get government officials. 1252 00:58:30,680 --> 00:58:32,680 Speaker 12: That's exactly what they are doing in the background. As 1253 00:58:32,680 --> 00:58:34,760 Speaker 12: a matter of fact. In fact, they indicate that that's 1254 00:58:34,880 --> 00:58:36,920 Speaker 12: exactly what they're doing, that they're talking to fuel companies. 1255 00:58:36,960 --> 00:58:39,680 Speaker 12: They're talking to Marston points are the guys who bring 1256 00:58:39,760 --> 00:58:42,200 Speaker 12: the fuel in about these very matters. I mean, they didn't, 1257 00:58:42,200 --> 00:58:44,720 Speaker 12: of course explain exactly what they're doing because that's commercial, 1258 00:58:44,760 --> 00:58:46,760 Speaker 12: but I mean in the same way what they are 1259 00:58:46,800 --> 00:58:47,800 Speaker 12: doing in COVID. 1260 00:58:47,840 --> 00:58:50,080 Speaker 2: You just hold that thought for one tech josiecause we 1261 00:58:50,160 --> 00:58:51,360 Speaker 2: just have to take a break and we'll come back 1262 00:58:51,400 --> 00:58:52,560 Speaker 2: and talk about a quarter to two. 1263 00:58:55,400 --> 00:58:59,120 Speaker 1: The huddle with New Zealand Southeby's International Realty, the only 1264 00:58:59,280 --> 00:59:00,560 Speaker 1: truly globe brand. 1265 00:59:00,760 --> 00:59:02,880 Speaker 2: Right, you're back with a huddle, Phil and Josie. Right, Josie, 1266 00:59:02,920 --> 00:59:03,560 Speaker 2: you were saying. 1267 00:59:03,600 --> 00:59:06,240 Speaker 18: Well, my point is that you know the private sector 1268 00:59:06,320 --> 00:59:09,919 Speaker 18: and New Zealand global companies in New Zealand producing oil. 1269 00:59:10,080 --> 00:59:12,520 Speaker 18: They know how to trade in oil, They know how 1270 00:59:12,560 --> 00:59:15,560 Speaker 18: to fix these problems. They know how to negotiate these 1271 00:59:15,680 --> 00:59:18,240 Speaker 18: deals better than government officials. I'm not saying that you 1272 00:59:18,280 --> 00:59:20,520 Speaker 18: shouldn't involve that government official shouldn't be. 1273 00:59:20,480 --> 00:59:20,720 Speaker 2: Part of it. 1274 00:59:20,800 --> 00:59:23,880 Speaker 18: But I don't want as repeated COVID where you've got 1275 00:59:24,920 --> 00:59:28,000 Speaker 18: government officials deciding what is an essential service and therefore 1276 00:59:28,040 --> 00:59:29,520 Speaker 18: who gets the fuel for example. 1277 00:59:30,080 --> 00:59:31,840 Speaker 12: They're not doing that, just mate. They're actually trying to 1278 00:59:31,840 --> 00:59:33,800 Speaker 12: say they're not doing that. What they're saying is we 1279 00:59:33,920 --> 00:59:36,520 Speaker 12: may get to that. I know, and some other countries 1280 00:59:36,560 --> 00:59:38,920 Speaker 12: has already work from home going on. In some of 1281 00:59:38,960 --> 00:59:41,439 Speaker 12: the countries of Southeast Asia. What the government was saying 1282 00:59:41,480 --> 00:59:44,000 Speaker 12: today was let's get there and let's make sure we 1283 00:59:44,040 --> 00:59:46,440 Speaker 12: can do everything we can not to get there. You 1284 00:59:46,480 --> 00:59:47,960 Speaker 12: think that was entirely sensible. 1285 00:59:48,080 --> 00:59:50,200 Speaker 18: What I'm saying, though, is that one thing we learn 1286 00:59:50,280 --> 00:59:53,040 Speaker 18: in COVID surely is that you include the players in 1287 00:59:53,120 --> 00:59:55,320 Speaker 18: the market, So the supermarkets and the butchers and the 1288 00:59:55,360 --> 00:59:58,840 Speaker 18: green grosers, you include the private sector in the discussion 1289 00:59:58,880 --> 00:59:59,680 Speaker 18: about what you're going to do. 1290 01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:02,240 Speaker 12: We're a different press conferences. Mate, maybe we're a different 1291 01:00:02,280 --> 01:00:04,480 Speaker 12: press concentences, because that's what she said, Oh. 1292 01:00:06,000 --> 01:00:07,800 Speaker 18: Favor of the private sector, in your in favor of 1293 01:00:07,840 --> 01:00:09,120 Speaker 18: government officials. 1294 01:00:10,720 --> 01:00:11,320 Speaker 12: The private sector. 1295 01:00:11,360 --> 01:00:13,560 Speaker 2: But you guys are talking past each other, Phil, are 1296 01:00:13,560 --> 01:00:15,520 Speaker 2: saying the thing that you want is the thing that 1297 01:00:15,680 --> 01:00:17,600 Speaker 2: is happening at the moment, and the thing that you 1298 01:00:17,760 --> 01:00:19,720 Speaker 2: fear is happening in other countries. And fingers crossed. We 1299 01:00:19,760 --> 01:00:23,360 Speaker 2: don't get. It's a translating Okay, now you're welcome. Consider 1300 01:00:23,440 --> 01:00:26,080 Speaker 2: me a marriage counselor is basically how it will. 1301 01:00:26,160 --> 01:00:27,880 Speaker 18: Just see my social media posts on Phil. 1302 01:00:28,160 --> 01:00:32,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, and here we are, so Phil. Speaking of which, 1303 01:00:32,600 --> 01:00:35,240 Speaker 2: the social media post that Hipkins's ex wife has put 1304 01:00:35,280 --> 01:00:39,040 Speaker 2: out about him, What does he do about this? If anything? 1305 01:00:40,200 --> 01:00:43,040 Speaker 12: Well, I noticed that today that social media post. Although 1306 01:00:43,120 --> 01:00:46,160 Speaker 12: the media have been, the mainstream media is including your 1307 01:00:46,200 --> 01:00:48,720 Speaker 12: own station, have been aren't going to run the stuff. 1308 01:00:48,720 --> 01:00:51,760 Speaker 12: But that's it's all over Facebook this afternoon, including by 1309 01:00:51,840 --> 01:00:56,320 Speaker 12: some commentators who I suspect posting it, you know, just 1310 01:00:56,400 --> 01:00:58,320 Speaker 12: to say, well, see we're not we're not going to 1311 01:00:58,360 --> 01:01:02,040 Speaker 12: comply with these rules and almost encouraging I suspect Hipkins 1312 01:01:02,240 --> 01:01:04,080 Speaker 12: and as lawyers to have a go at them. Well, 1313 01:01:04,120 --> 01:01:05,439 Speaker 12: I think Chris has got a bit of a problem. 1314 01:01:05,480 --> 01:01:07,240 Speaker 12: He's saying he's not going to say anything more about it. Well, 1315 01:01:07,680 --> 01:01:09,919 Speaker 12: it's going to bubble along. These things have a habit 1316 01:01:09,960 --> 01:01:11,320 Speaker 12: of getting on a bit of a life of their own, 1317 01:01:11,560 --> 01:01:13,680 Speaker 12: and you know he's if he doesn't have a line 1318 01:01:13,720 --> 01:01:16,520 Speaker 12: on that, then it starts to look challenging for him. 1319 01:01:16,600 --> 01:01:18,760 Speaker 12: I think the other thing I think that's very important 1320 01:01:19,480 --> 01:01:21,400 Speaker 12: is the media will be under scrutiny here. You know 1321 01:01:21,440 --> 01:01:23,160 Speaker 12: there's already stuff saying well, if it was a right 1322 01:01:23,200 --> 01:01:25,600 Speaker 12: wing politician, you know that we wouldn't be so gentle. 1323 01:01:25,680 --> 01:01:28,000 Speaker 12: Now I'm who knows whether that's true or not, But 1324 01:01:28,080 --> 01:01:31,560 Speaker 12: I think both Chris Hipkins and the mainstream media and 1325 01:01:31,600 --> 01:01:34,520 Speaker 12: New Zealand are now on notice to treat this well 1326 01:01:34,600 --> 01:01:36,400 Speaker 12: and treat it, treat it properly, and give it the 1327 01:01:36,760 --> 01:01:40,160 Speaker 12: give it the the seriousness with which it's due. And 1328 01:01:40,600 --> 01:01:43,040 Speaker 12: let's hope we can get to a conclusion of is 1329 01:01:43,160 --> 01:01:46,000 Speaker 12: the one thing I'd also say that you can buy that. 1330 01:01:46,080 --> 01:01:48,200 Speaker 12: You can buy the argue like that the private lives 1331 01:01:48,240 --> 01:01:51,160 Speaker 12: of politicians are public fodder. But I don't buy that. 1332 01:01:51,280 --> 01:01:53,320 Speaker 12: I do think actually these things should be you know, 1333 01:01:53,320 --> 01:01:55,800 Speaker 12: you should be able to handle these things privately. That's 1334 01:01:55,840 --> 01:01:56,760 Speaker 12: come out, but that's the way that is. 1335 01:01:57,080 --> 01:01:59,800 Speaker 2: Nobody was asking Jade what happened in their marriage. J 1336 01:02:00,240 --> 01:02:02,840 Speaker 2: just got out she rage texting from Fiji. 1337 01:02:04,280 --> 01:02:06,160 Speaker 18: And I do think we should push back on that. 1338 01:02:06,280 --> 01:02:08,160 Speaker 18: This is not how we want to do politics, right, 1339 01:02:08,200 --> 01:02:09,360 Speaker 18: whether it's the left or the right. 1340 01:02:10,560 --> 01:02:12,360 Speaker 2: Let's play the sound then, Josie, how does that work? 1341 01:02:12,400 --> 01:02:14,800 Speaker 2: So so old Jade has a couple of cocktail. Well, 1342 01:02:14,800 --> 01:02:16,400 Speaker 2: I'm but defaming her as you might not. She might 1343 01:02:16,440 --> 01:02:17,880 Speaker 2: have done this entirely sober, which. 1344 01:02:17,720 --> 01:02:18,439 Speaker 4: Is actually worse. 1345 01:02:19,000 --> 01:02:22,440 Speaker 2: Lawyer, she's entirely sober, and she's rage texting about him 1346 01:02:22,440 --> 01:02:24,320 Speaker 2: from Fiji. Do we ignore that? 1347 01:02:24,960 --> 01:02:25,000 Speaker 8: So? 1348 01:02:25,160 --> 01:02:27,360 Speaker 18: I think, what what we do, or what Chris would do, 1349 01:02:27,600 --> 01:02:30,960 Speaker 18: is you stand up and you go look, divorces are messy. 1350 01:02:31,440 --> 01:02:34,440 Speaker 18: People say things I don't and what I. 1351 01:02:34,440 --> 01:02:36,880 Speaker 2: Would There are children involved, There are children, and I 1352 01:02:37,000 --> 01:02:38,040 Speaker 2: don't want to relitigate. 1353 01:02:38,120 --> 01:02:40,360 Speaker 18: Mind, this is not what our politics is about. If 1354 01:02:40,400 --> 01:02:43,120 Speaker 18: you want politics to be politics by the Kardashians, go 1355 01:02:43,320 --> 01:02:43,520 Speaker 18: for it. 1356 01:02:43,640 --> 01:02:45,440 Speaker 2: This is gossip. Should we go work? 1357 01:02:47,080 --> 01:02:48,920 Speaker 12: He's lawyered up.

As Josephagarney and fellow Riley siming away from six. 1394 01:04:16,480 --> 01:04:19,880 Speaker 1: It's the Heather Dupless Allen Drive Full Show podcast on 1395 01:04:20,160 --> 01:04:22,880 Speaker 1: my Ard Radio powered by News Talk ZB. 1396 01:04:25,080 --> 01:04:27,919 Speaker 2: On the EV's Heather a south Way Cato Council could 1397 01:04:28,040 --> 01:04:31,280 Speaker 2: use couldn't use even one of their electric cars or 1398 01:04:31,400 --> 01:04:33,840 Speaker 2: utes because of the floodwaters. They had to use petrol utes. 1399 01:04:37,040 --> 01:04:38,600 Speaker 2: Oh that's a fail, isn't it. 1400 01:04:39,720 --> 01:04:39,840 Speaker 9: Now? 1401 01:04:40,000 --> 01:04:42,760 Speaker 2: Business desk is carrying me on, which honestly, I'm glad. 1402 01:04:42,840 --> 01:04:45,560 Speaker 2: It's like it's like they have read my mind and 1403 01:04:45,960 --> 01:04:47,880 Speaker 2: this is not the first question in my mind. But 1404 01:04:47,920 --> 01:04:49,600 Speaker 2: It's like they went through the questions of my mind 1405 01:04:49,640 --> 01:04:51,520 Speaker 2: and oh, that's an interesting one. Let's answer it for you. 1406 01:04:51,640 --> 01:04:54,400 Speaker 2: The question is, why is it that the global elite 1407 01:04:54,520 --> 01:04:57,120 Speaker 2: do not spell or use grammar correctly anymore? Now, the 1408 01:04:57,160 --> 01:04:58,920 Speaker 2: reason this has popped up is largely because of the 1409 01:04:58,960 --> 01:05:01,640 Speaker 2: Epstein files, Because if you go through the Epstein files, 1410 01:05:01,680 --> 01:05:05,160 Speaker 2: holy heck, nobody's in bothering anymore. There's no full stops. 1411 01:05:05,400 --> 01:05:08,880 Speaker 2: There's one of the emails that Epstein sent to his 1412 01:05:09,040 --> 01:05:13,640 Speaker 2: assistant was about someone called Enrue, and so she went 1413 01:05:13,680 --> 01:05:16,680 Speaker 2: back to him and was like, is that Enrique? Maybe 1414 01:05:16,680 --> 01:05:20,439 Speaker 2: they spelt incorrectly, not even a capital e. And there's 1415 01:05:20,520 --> 01:05:23,400 Speaker 2: just like myriad examples of that. Jack Dorsey's memo last 1416 01:05:23,440 --> 01:05:25,960 Speaker 2: month laying off nearly half of his staff was almost 1417 01:05:26,160 --> 01:05:30,000 Speaker 2: entirely in lower case. When David Allison sent a text 1418 01:05:30,080 --> 01:05:33,760 Speaker 2: to Warner Brothers Discoveries, David Zaslav has spelt his name 1419 01:05:33,920 --> 01:05:36,960 Speaker 2: d AIVD. It's just swapped that V and that I 1420 01:05:37,080 --> 01:05:39,640 Speaker 2: around didn't even care. Then there was the Hacket Sony 1421 01:05:39,680 --> 01:05:42,240 Speaker 2: pictures where the executives were sending each other messages like 1422 01:05:42,360 --> 01:05:45,800 Speaker 2: all in capitals, we all have to sit down to 1423 01:05:46,040 --> 01:05:49,880 Speaker 2: one word to talk about th next draft now. The 1424 01:05:49,960 --> 01:05:51,840 Speaker 2: reason so that what they did at business desk was 1425 01:05:51,880 --> 01:05:54,400 Speaker 2: of somebody was obviously like a Wall Street journal or something. 1426 01:05:54,480 --> 01:05:57,400 Speaker 2: They got a got a linguist around to explain what's 1427 01:05:57,440 --> 01:06:00,240 Speaker 2: going on here. It's a flex. They're telling you that 1428 01:06:00,280 --> 01:06:03,000 Speaker 2: they don't need to spell things properly or capitalize forew 1429 01:06:03,000 --> 01:06:05,320 Speaker 2: because they are more important than you. That's what's going on. 1430 01:06:06,040 --> 01:06:13,800 Speaker 2: Nicola Willis Next, what Queer. 1431 01:06:13,680 --> 01:06:18,160 Speaker 1: Business Commets Insight the Business Hour with Heather Duplessy Allen 1432 01:06:18,360 --> 01:06:22,640 Speaker 1: and Mas Insurance and investments, Your futures in good hands? 1433 01:06:23,000 --> 01:06:23,840 Speaker 1: News talks that be. 1434 01:06:25,680 --> 01:06:27,840 Speaker 2: Even in coming up in the next hour.

As of our last update, 1450 01:07:09,840 --> 01:07:13,960 Speaker 9: we knew that we had fifty seven days of petrol, 1451 01:07:14,000 --> 01:07:17,880 Speaker 9: including thirty days in the country and a bit less 1452 01:07:17,920 --> 01:07:22,000 Speaker 9: for diesel and jet fuel. That's both fuel and storage, 1453 01:07:22,040 --> 01:07:24,520 Speaker 9: but also fuel on the way here in ships. We've 1454 01:07:24,600 --> 01:07:28,400 Speaker 9: not been advised of any disruption in future orders at 1455 01:07:28,480 --> 01:07:31,960 Speaker 9: this stage, so what we're preparing for is a potential 1456 01:07:32,040 --> 01:07:35,520 Speaker 9: circumstance in the future when fuel companies could have difficulties 1457 01:07:35,560 --> 01:07:38,439 Speaker 9: securing future orders. So that's some ways away. 1458 01:07:38,640 --> 01:07:42,040 Speaker 2: Okay, Now I heard you saying May is the possible 1459 01:07:42,080 --> 01:07:43,120 Speaker 2: crunch time for us. 1460 01:07:43,200 --> 01:07:43,600 Speaker 1: Why is that. 1461 01:07:45,280 --> 01:07:47,560 Speaker 9: Because when we're talking to fuel companies, they have a 1462 01:07:47,720 --> 01:07:50,640 Speaker 9: range of forward orders, but it's when you start looking 1463 01:07:50,760 --> 01:07:54,160 Speaker 9: out a few weeks from now that they haven't necessarily 1464 01:07:54,200 --> 01:07:56,720 Speaker 9: got all of their orders confirmed out into the future. 1465 01:07:56,920 --> 01:07:59,880 Speaker 9: Just like every business, they do some of their order 1466 01:08:00,120 --> 01:08:02,000 Speaker 9: in advance, but not all of it, and it's when 1467 01:08:02,040 --> 01:08:04,560 Speaker 9: they get out over the horizon that they need to 1468 01:08:04,600 --> 01:08:07,320 Speaker 9: make sure they can secure those orders, and we'll have 1469 01:08:07,400 --> 01:08:10,920 Speaker 9: more information about how that's going from them in the 1470 01:08:10,960 --> 01:08:11,520 Speaker 9: coming weeks. 1471 01:08:11,920 --> 01:08:16,000 Speaker 2: Have any of their order requests been declined, Not. 1472 01:08:16,120 --> 01:08:19,800 Speaker 9: That I'm aware of, But everyone is planning a head here, 1473 01:08:20,000 --> 01:08:22,360 Speaker 9: which is that we know that the oil refineries that 1474 01:08:22,520 --> 01:08:25,719 Speaker 9: we get our fuel from are predominantly in Asia, South 1475 01:08:25,840 --> 01:08:29,599 Speaker 9: Korea and Singapore being the main places we get fuel from. 1476 01:08:29,720 --> 01:08:33,080 Speaker 9: We know those places depend on crude oil that comes 1477 01:08:33,160 --> 01:08:36,080 Speaker 9: from the Middle East, so it's foreseeable that some of 1478 01:08:36,120 --> 01:08:39,800 Speaker 9: those refineries may have challenges getting supply and therefore that 1479 01:08:39,920 --> 01:08:43,960 Speaker 9: they could have challenges and fulfilling orders in the future. Obviously, 1480 01:08:44,120 --> 01:08:47,559 Speaker 9: in the first instance, fuel companies would work to find 1481 01:08:47,640 --> 01:08:51,160 Speaker 9: alternative sources of refined fuel. It's also the case that 1482 01:08:51,240 --> 01:08:54,679 Speaker 9: those refineries in Asia would also look for alternative sources 1483 01:08:54,760 --> 01:08:56,800 Speaker 9: for crude oil. So there's quite a few steps to 1484 01:08:56,880 --> 01:08:59,759 Speaker 9: happen within the market before you get to a situation 1485 01:09:00,000 --> 01:09:04,280 Speaker 9: where orders can't be fulfilled. But it's completely appropriate and 1486 01:09:04,400 --> 01:09:07,880 Speaker 9: prudent and responsible for us to be envisaging those scenarios 1487 01:09:07,920 --> 01:09:08,800 Speaker 9: and getting ready for them. 1488 01:09:08,840 --> 01:09:11,280 Speaker 2: Now yeah, okay, now on myles Hurral Have you talked 1489 01:09:11,280 --> 01:09:12,760 Speaker 2: to him about his resignation just yet? 1490 01:09:13,800 --> 01:09:15,880 Speaker 9: I haven't had a chance to speak to him today, 1491 01:09:16,160 --> 01:09:18,920 Speaker 9: and when I do, I'll just wish him all the 1492 01:09:19,000 --> 01:09:21,640 Speaker 9: best for the future. He was a great boss to 1493 01:09:21,760 --> 01:09:24,519 Speaker 9: me when I worked at Fonterra. He gave me a 1494 01:09:24,680 --> 01:09:29,040 Speaker 9: significant promotion. He backed me. He was one of those 1495 01:09:29,160 --> 01:09:32,000 Speaker 9: leaders who had come from the ground up through that business, 1496 01:09:32,080 --> 01:09:34,559 Speaker 9: worked really hard and knew how to lead people, saw 1497 01:09:34,600 --> 01:09:36,120 Speaker 9: the best in people and brought it out in the 1498 01:09:36,280 --> 01:09:38,200 Speaker 9: common sense, practical got things done. 1499 01:09:38,360 --> 01:09:40,280 Speaker 2: Are you see? I mean, do you think that this 1500 01:09:40,479 --> 01:09:43,320 Speaker 2: reaction to him quitting today from your mate Winston is 1501 01:09:43,320 --> 01:09:43,800 Speaker 2: a bit weird? 1502 01:09:45,040 --> 01:09:47,920 Speaker 9: Well, I'll leave Winston to Winston. But what I'd say 1503 01:09:48,120 --> 01:09:52,320 Speaker 9: is that when Miles offered me an extraordinary new role 1504 01:09:52,360 --> 01:09:54,840 Speaker 9: when I was on maternity lead with my fourth child, 1505 01:09:55,400 --> 01:09:57,160 Speaker 9: and I see to him, all, well, Miles, that role 1506 01:09:57,240 --> 01:10:00,400 Speaker 9: sounds really complicated, managing waste management and farm These are 1507 01:10:00,439 --> 01:10:02,439 Speaker 9: things I've never done before, and sure I could do it. 1508 01:10:02,600 --> 01:10:05,280 Speaker 9: Miles said to me, Nikola, interesting that you say that. 1509 01:10:05,360 --> 01:10:07,200 Speaker 9: If you're a man, you'd be saying how big is 1510 01:10:07,240 --> 01:10:10,360 Speaker 9: the pay rise? And he just backed me and put 1511 01:10:10,400 --> 01:10:12,479 Speaker 9: his confidence in me. And I learned a lot from him, 1512 01:10:12,560 --> 01:10:14,559 Speaker 9: so you're only going to hear nice things about him 1513 01:10:14,560 --> 01:10:15,040 Speaker 9: from me today. 1514 01:10:15,160 --> 01:10:17,200 Speaker 2: I get on the farm stuff. Why did you guys 1515 01:10:17,320 --> 01:10:19,439 Speaker 2: you turn on the idea of lifting the live animals 1516 01:10:19,479 --> 01:10:20,080 Speaker 2: export ban. 1517 01:10:21,520 --> 01:10:23,680 Speaker 9: Well, we always said that we would only advance that 1518 01:10:23,800 --> 01:10:25,680 Speaker 9: if we thought we could meet a gold standard and 1519 01:10:25,800 --> 01:10:28,880 Speaker 9: animal welfare, and the ultimate judgment we made was that 1520 01:10:29,000 --> 01:10:31,360 Speaker 9: we couldn't, and so National will not be taking that 1521 01:10:31,439 --> 01:10:32,120 Speaker 9: policy forward. 1522 01:10:32,200 --> 01:10:34,360 Speaker 2: But it was a National Party decision, no one else's. 1523 01:10:35,720 --> 01:10:38,760 Speaker 9: Well, obviously we agreed that with our coalition partners that 1524 01:10:38,840 --> 01:10:40,599 Speaker 9: we wouldn't be progressing that as a government. 1525 01:10:40,960 --> 01:10:43,400 Speaker 2: Because Thomas Coglin's written his piece on Saturday saying it 1526 01:10:43,479 --> 01:10:44,679 Speaker 2: was a National Party decision. 1527 01:10:45,720 --> 01:10:47,920 Speaker 9: Well, National was very clear that it didn't meet our 1528 01:10:48,000 --> 01:10:48,680 Speaker 9: test and he. 1529 01:10:48,720 --> 01:10:50,720 Speaker 2: Said it was because Erica said that the townies don't 1530 01:10:50,800 --> 01:10:50,960 Speaker 2: like it. 1531 01:10:52,560 --> 01:10:55,800 Speaker 9: Well, I think that that's incorrect. The National Party formed 1532 01:10:55,800 --> 01:10:59,320 Speaker 9: of view that we didn't think that New Zealanders were 1533 01:10:59,360 --> 01:11:02,880 Speaker 9: happy with it and that we couldn't answer their fair questions. 1534 01:11:02,920 --> 01:11:04,760 Speaker 9: So yeah, we did listen. He's right to say that 1535 01:11:04,920 --> 01:11:07,120 Speaker 9: that we listened to New Zealanders who had concerns. We 1536 01:11:07,320 --> 01:11:11,080 Speaker 9: prosecuted those concerns and ultimately we couldn't satisfy ourselves that 1537 01:11:11,160 --> 01:11:11,839 Speaker 9: it should progress. 1538 01:11:12,200 --> 01:11:14,160 Speaker 2: I mean that does suck a little bit for farmers, 1539 01:11:14,240 --> 01:11:16,760 Speaker 2: doesn't it, Because if it's about what townies think about 1540 01:11:16,800 --> 01:11:18,400 Speaker 2: what happens on the farm, they're going to lose every 1541 01:11:18,400 --> 01:11:20,639 Speaker 2: time because there are more townies than farmers. 1542 01:11:21,439 --> 01:11:23,839 Speaker 9: It's bigger than that though. It's also about New Zealand's 1543 01:11:23,880 --> 01:11:27,519 Speaker 9: international reputation as being a beacon for animal welfare standards, 1544 01:11:27,520 --> 01:11:29,920 Speaker 9: and we think that reputation is important to farmers and 1545 01:11:30,000 --> 01:11:30,639 Speaker 9: townies alike. 1546 01:11:31,000 --> 01:11:33,000 Speaker 2: Isn't that about three hundred million dollars that we're just 1547 01:11:33,080 --> 01:11:35,280 Speaker 2: forfeiting that's being taken up by the Australians to the 1548 01:11:35,320 --> 01:11:36,080 Speaker 2: American market. 1549 01:11:37,240 --> 01:11:39,880 Speaker 9: Well, that number is actually contingent on how big an 1550 01:11:39,920 --> 01:11:42,640 Speaker 9: industry would actually been able to be created if you 1551 01:11:42,720 --> 01:11:46,280 Speaker 9: were setting really really stringent standards, and how much of 1552 01:11:46,360 --> 01:11:49,240 Speaker 9: that industry would have come back was something that there 1553 01:11:49,280 --> 01:11:51,000 Speaker 9: were a range of questions about as well. 1554 01:11:51,040 --> 01:11:52,960 Speaker 2: Is it possibly back on the agenda if you win 1555 01:11:53,040 --> 01:11:56,840 Speaker 2: the election? No, so National will never support it. 1556 01:11:58,360 --> 01:12:00,559 Speaker 9: Well, we've always said only if there's a goal old standard, 1557 01:12:00,560 --> 01:12:02,439 Speaker 9: and at this point we haven't been satisfied that that 1558 01:12:02,479 --> 01:12:03,200 Speaker 9: would be possible. 1559 01:12:03,320 --> 01:12:06,360 Speaker 2: Okay, do you think this is on Heinz Watties quitting 1560 01:12:06,439 --> 01:12:08,080 Speaker 2: in part because of the cost of power. Do you 1561 01:12:08,120 --> 01:12:10,640 Speaker 2: think it is possible that this country will ever get 1562 01:12:10,680 --> 01:12:14,200 Speaker 2: electricity prices low enough again for the likes of Heinz 1563 01:12:14,200 --> 01:12:15,760 Speaker 2: Watties to want to manufacture here. 1564 01:12:16,640 --> 01:12:19,559 Speaker 9: Well, when you look at New Zealand internationally, while our 1565 01:12:19,800 --> 01:12:23,600 Speaker 9: electricity prices, our energy prices have risen compared to a 1566 01:12:23,640 --> 01:12:26,040 Speaker 9: lot of countries around the world, we still offer more 1567 01:12:26,040 --> 01:12:29,719 Speaker 9: affordable generation of energy. And as you look to the future, 1568 01:12:29,920 --> 01:12:33,120 Speaker 9: we're a place where with hydro, with solar, with wind 1569 01:12:33,280 --> 01:12:36,040 Speaker 9: and with backup for the days where it's not raining 1570 01:12:36,120 --> 01:12:38,600 Speaker 9: in the form of the strategic reserve that Genesis have 1571 01:12:38,800 --> 01:12:41,200 Speaker 9: and in the form of vwing G, then actually this 1572 01:12:41,320 --> 01:12:44,719 Speaker 9: can be a place of comparatively affordable energy. So that's 1573 01:12:44,760 --> 01:12:47,519 Speaker 9: what our electricity policy is all about. It's about saying, 1574 01:12:47,600 --> 01:12:50,320 Speaker 9: let's make sure we preserve New Zealand's position as an 1575 01:12:50,400 --> 01:12:53,120 Speaker 9: internationally affordable place to do business. 1576 01:12:53,520 --> 01:12:56,120 Speaker 2: But would it ever be low enough again to compete 1577 01:12:56,160 --> 01:12:57,679 Speaker 2: with other manufacturing countries. 1578 01:12:58,880 --> 01:13:00,920 Speaker 9: Well, that all depends on the price path that other 1579 01:13:01,000 --> 01:13:03,599 Speaker 9: countries take. But what we need to do is make 1580 01:13:03,680 --> 01:13:08,880 Speaker 9: sure our electricity policy is sensible and that encourages investment 1581 01:13:09,000 --> 01:13:13,000 Speaker 9: in new generation because that's what's key to keeping electricity affordable. 1582 01:13:13,040 --> 01:13:14,880 Speaker 2: Have you heard that Heinz Watties is just the first 1583 01:13:14,960 --> 01:13:17,639 Speaker 2: this year a Morll clothes Well. 1584 01:13:18,360 --> 01:13:21,120 Speaker 9: Look, people always speculate in that way. What I have 1585 01:13:21,360 --> 01:13:25,120 Speaker 9: seen is the Manufacturing Index data has suggested that the 1586 01:13:25,200 --> 01:13:29,280 Speaker 9: manufacturing sector as a whole has moved into positive territory 1587 01:13:29,360 --> 01:13:31,720 Speaker 9: in terms of its confidence about the future for the 1588 01:13:31,760 --> 01:13:34,719 Speaker 9: first time in quite a few years. So I imagine, 1589 01:13:34,760 --> 01:13:36,960 Speaker 9: like any industry, it's a mixed picture. There'll be some 1590 01:13:37,120 --> 01:13:39,240 Speaker 9: that are doing well, there'll be others that are doing 1591 01:13:39,320 --> 01:13:41,840 Speaker 9: less well. And look, you know, I just say for 1592 01:13:41,920 --> 01:13:45,280 Speaker 9: the people affected at Heinzwatties, you know, terrible news for 1593 01:13:45,360 --> 01:13:48,280 Speaker 9: them and huge impact on those workers, their communities and 1594 01:13:48,360 --> 01:13:51,160 Speaker 9: the people who supply Heinzwatty. So we're very conscious of that, 1595 01:13:51,439 --> 01:13:54,479 Speaker 9: and so in all the policies that we're delivering, we're 1596 01:13:54,479 --> 01:13:57,439 Speaker 9: always thinking about how do you keep businesses alive doing 1597 01:13:57,520 --> 01:13:59,800 Speaker 9: well because that's where jobs and incomes come from. 1598 01:14:00,280 --> 01:14:03,640 Speaker 2: Is in New Zealand going to need a bailout? No, 1599 01:14:04,400 --> 01:14:07,000 Speaker 2: that is not on the cards that no day, It's 1600 01:14:07,040 --> 01:14:09,240 Speaker 2: not on the cards at the stage. Is it going 1601 01:14:09,360 --> 01:14:11,559 Speaker 2: to need a bailout though? Do you think while you're 1602 01:14:11,600 --> 01:14:12,720 Speaker 2: the finance minister. 1603 01:14:13,520 --> 01:14:15,880 Speaker 9: Well, I haven't been advised that that is the case. 1604 01:14:16,280 --> 01:14:18,120 Speaker 2: What are you reckon? Just look at you, no business, 1605 01:14:18,320 --> 01:14:19,679 Speaker 2: just having a look at it. What do you reckon? 1606 01:14:20,000 --> 01:14:22,240 Speaker 9: Well, I think in the first instance, they're a business 1607 01:14:22,240 --> 01:14:25,439 Speaker 9: who will adapt to what's a global price shock in 1608 01:14:25,520 --> 01:14:27,439 Speaker 9: the form of jet fuel. They have quite a few 1609 01:14:27,479 --> 01:14:29,640 Speaker 9: options for how to adapt to that. You've seen them 1610 01:14:29,680 --> 01:14:31,360 Speaker 9: take some of those steps already in terms of the 1611 01:14:31,439 --> 01:14:34,560 Speaker 9: prices they charge customers, the routes that they're flying. I 1612 01:14:34,680 --> 01:14:37,760 Speaker 9: also think when you look internationally, you're going to see 1613 01:14:37,840 --> 01:14:40,800 Speaker 9: some shifts and airline patterns around the world, and that 1614 01:14:41,040 --> 01:14:45,280 Speaker 9: means that jet fuel will remain available and I think 1615 01:14:45,360 --> 01:14:48,560 Speaker 9: in New Zealand has every opportunity to compete for customers. 1616 01:14:48,640 --> 01:14:51,840 Speaker 9: We now look like a very safe country compared to 1617 01:14:51,880 --> 01:14:54,719 Speaker 9: a lot of other destinations where people might have wanted 1618 01:14:54,720 --> 01:14:56,720 Speaker 9: to have a tourist experience three weeks ago. 1619 01:14:56,960 --> 01:14:58,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, here's hoping that works for us as a 1620 01:14:58,400 --> 01:15:00,840 Speaker 2: fair point. Nicola, thank you very much, nickle Willis Finance 1621 01:15:00,920 --> 01:15:04,320 Speaker 2: Ministers coming up sixteen past six It's the Heather. 1622 01:15:04,240 --> 01:15:07,960 Speaker 1: Duplessy Allen Drive Full Show podcast on my Heart Radio 1623 01:15:08,200 --> 01:15:14,040 Speaker 1: powered by Newstalks EBB.

He said he was going to 1629 01:15:28,960 --> 01:15:31,880 Speaker 2: chat on the phone phone. I was hoping that what 1630 01:15:31,960 --> 01:15:34,840 Speaker 2: he meant was that he was going to chat hither. 1631 01:15:35,000 --> 01:15:37,400 Speaker 2: So Miles Harrell has sold the value chain, taken his 1632 01:15:37,479 --> 01:15:40,160 Speaker 2: big bonus and left unbelievable.

Got the oil price is sitting above one 1638 01:15:55,840 --> 01:15:58,320 Speaker 2: hundred bucks a barrel. How have the investment markets reacted 1639 01:15:58,320 --> 01:15:59,479 Speaker 2: and what about the local markets? 1640 01:16:00,200 --> 01:16:03,599 Speaker 19: Yeah, we've seen more de risking a couple of different ways. 1641 01:16:03,640 --> 01:16:06,439 Speaker 19: We can see that the long term bond rates, which 1642 01:16:06,439 --> 01:16:08,920 Speaker 19: are driven by inflation concerners and risk premiums going up 1643 01:16:08,920 --> 01:16:11,280 Speaker 19: there up about zero point three percent, So US Tenure 1644 01:16:11,320 --> 01:16:14,120 Speaker 19: gave my bonds four point three percent. Locally we're about 1645 01:16:14,120 --> 01:16:16,000 Speaker 19: four point seven percent. That takes us right back to 1646 01:16:16,080 --> 01:16:17,880 Speaker 19: where we were at Yoga, So that's a bit of 1647 01:16:17,920 --> 01:16:20,920 Speaker 19: a hurdle in terms of borrowing our shue market. We've 1648 01:16:20,920 --> 01:16:23,599 Speaker 19: seen the USU marker down was down again on Friday 1649 01:16:23,640 --> 01:16:26,679 Speaker 19: night about point six percent, down three point six percent 1650 01:16:26,960 --> 01:16:29,679 Speaker 19: since their action startup. We're locally we're down about four 1651 01:16:30,320 --> 01:16:32,679 Speaker 19: and we're seeing the sect liberal with things like energy utilities, 1652 01:16:32,680 --> 01:16:35,200 Speaker 19: consumer stable, they're doing okay. The ones that are week 1653 01:16:35,240 --> 01:16:37,720 Speaker 19: at industrials, materials, consumer discretion ry. 1654 01:16:38,479 --> 01:16:40,760 Speaker 2: Can the market settle down? Do you think if the 1655 01:16:40,840 --> 01:16:43,040 Speaker 2: conflict continues, we. 1656 01:16:43,960 --> 01:16:45,840 Speaker 19: Might continue to see a bit of d risking until 1657 01:16:45,880 --> 01:16:48,120 Speaker 19: we understand the scope and the breadth of the action. 1658 01:16:48,680 --> 01:16:51,120 Speaker 19: We look back at what happened with the Russian invasion 1659 01:16:51,160 --> 01:16:53,960 Speaker 19: of Ukraine. We saw this early on shock and then 1660 01:16:53,960 --> 01:16:55,600 Speaker 19: it took us for a little while to stabilize as 1661 01:16:55,640 --> 01:16:58,400 Speaker 19: we understood the scope of the actions and really understand 1662 01:16:58,439 --> 01:17:01,639 Speaker 19: what that meant for supply chains. But you know, while 1663 01:17:01,920 --> 01:17:03,920 Speaker 19: US and Irana looking for our friends, the new term 1664 01:17:04,080 --> 01:17:06,439 Speaker 19: is this balance between opening up the straits or mayors 1665 01:17:06,479 --> 01:17:10,120 Speaker 19: and the risk of internationalization. So yeah, a lot going 1666 01:17:10,160 --> 01:17:10,519 Speaker 19: on there. 1667 01:17:11,040 --> 01:17:13,200 Speaker 2: And then so the markets today a bit of a 1668 01:17:13,240 --> 01:17:15,240 Speaker 2: week's start, but they started to trade a little bit better. 1669 01:17:15,320 --> 01:17:18,439 Speaker 19: What happened, Yeah, you're bang on. We started with a 1670 01:17:18,479 --> 01:17:21,240 Speaker 19: really weak start. The Brient oil price rose three point 1671 01:17:21,240 --> 01:17:23,519 Speaker 19: three percent on the open, heading about one oh six 1672 01:17:23,720 --> 01:17:28,160 Speaker 19: fifty six US fifty year barrel. After this Cargo Island 1673 01:17:29,160 --> 01:17:32,000 Speaker 19: bombing by the monetary tabits by the US, and then 1674 01:17:32,000 --> 01:17:35,200 Speaker 19: it's falling back of the days around one four five 1675 01:17:35,320 --> 01:17:38,880 Speaker 19: right now, the Uranium foreign minister got a rash I'm 1676 01:17:39,040 --> 01:17:41,439 Speaker 19: not going his name right here. Their sole ever came 1677 01:17:41,520 --> 01:17:43,439 Speaker 19: out and saying that, hey, look, the Straits are only 1678 01:17:43,439 --> 01:17:45,679 Speaker 19: closed to our enemies, it's opened to the good guys. 1679 01:17:45,960 --> 01:17:49,479 Speaker 19: Mister Trump's out there steering things up. He's saying around, 1680 01:17:49,520 --> 01:17:52,920 Speaker 19: really wants to do a deal there, but he's prepared 1681 01:17:52,960 --> 01:17:55,800 Speaker 19: to hit Cargo Island again, and he's going to delay 1682 01:17:55,960 --> 01:17:59,519 Speaker 19: some with Chinese president if mister g doesn't send ships 1683 01:17:59,520 --> 01:18:01,519 Speaker 19: to help out the golf as well. So when she 1684 01:18:01,560 --> 01:18:04,519 Speaker 19: saw she make it down about zero point two percent, 1685 01:18:05,000 --> 01:18:06,040 Speaker 19: not a head of a lot today. 1686 01:18:06,720 --> 01:18:07,479 Speaker 12: I like training. 1687 01:18:07,800 --> 01:18:10,040 Speaker 19: He's down about half percent one stage. And as we speak, 1688 01:18:10,080 --> 01:18:13,360 Speaker 19: where she's seeing the US futures market, this is the 1689 01:18:13,400 --> 01:18:15,400 Speaker 19: indication of what might see up about half a percent. 1690 01:18:15,880 --> 01:18:19,160 Speaker 19: In European teaches up about point three percent. So the 1691 01:18:19,200 --> 01:18:21,080 Speaker 19: market's trying to read through and say we might have 1692 01:18:21,160 --> 01:18:21,759 Speaker 19: seen the worst. 1693 01:18:22,320 --> 01:18:24,240 Speaker 2: Interesting, Hey, thank you very much. Shane has always talked 1694 01:18:24,240 --> 01:18:26,439 Speaker 2: to you. Next week Shane Sley, Harbor Asset Management. Here 1695 01:18:26,479 --> 01:18:28,000 Speaker 2: there is Miles Horror going to turn up working for 1696 01:18:28,040 --> 01:18:30,439 Speaker 2: the buyer on double the pay. I don't know. Let's 1697 01:18:30,479 --> 01:18:31,760 Speaker 2: deal with us next six to twenty two. 1698 01:18:32,360 --> 01:18:35,840 Speaker 1: Whether it's macro, micro or just plain economics. It's all 1699 01:18:36,080 --> 01:18:38,720 Speaker 1: on the business hour with the hand, the dupless hour 1700 01:18:38,880 --> 01:18:43,000 Speaker 1: and MAS insurance and investments, your futures in good hands. 1701 01:18:43,280 --> 01:18:44,120 Speaker 1: News talks envy. 1702 01:18:44,840 --> 01:18:47,639 Speaker 2: Okay, So let's deal with Miles Hurrel. So what's happened 1703 01:18:47,680 --> 01:18:50,080 Speaker 2: with Miles Horrel? Obviously he's gone to quit and Winston 1704 01:18:50,200 --> 01:18:53,920 Speaker 2: Winston sparked up and he said CEO Miles Hurrell has 1705 01:18:53,960 --> 01:18:55,960 Speaker 2: resigned and will leave his once his bonus as a 1706 01:18:56,000 --> 01:18:58,320 Speaker 2: paid This is really the mainland deal. We said this 1707 01:18:58,479 --> 01:19:00,719 Speaker 2: exact thing would happen in our open letter to farmers 1708 01:19:00,800 --> 01:19:02,720 Speaker 2: last year, and he of course denied it. Now, look, 1709 01:19:02,760 --> 01:19:05,559 Speaker 2: Winston might be right. I actually tried to find Murrells 1710 01:19:06,200 --> 01:19:09,400 Speaker 2: Miles Hurreles denial today. I can't find it. So I 1711 01:19:09,479 --> 01:19:12,360 Speaker 2: don't know that. I don't know. I will be corrected. 1712 01:19:12,600 --> 01:19:14,760 Speaker 2: If I'm incorrect, let me know. But it seemed to 1713 01:19:14,800 --> 01:19:17,080 Speaker 2: me he just deflected, really just didn't answer the question, 1714 01:19:17,160 --> 01:19:17,799 Speaker 2: which is different. 1715 01:19:18,200 --> 01:19:18,320 Speaker 3: Now. 1716 01:19:18,360 --> 01:19:20,080 Speaker 2: I don't know what it is that Winston is seeing 1717 01:19:20,120 --> 01:19:21,719 Speaker 2: here that I'm not saying, because this is just smart 1718 01:19:21,760 --> 01:19:24,439 Speaker 2: career management. It was obvious that Miles was going to quit. 1719 01:19:24,840 --> 01:19:28,400 Speaker 2: You stitched together the deal of the year, got the 1720 01:19:28,520 --> 01:19:31,679 Speaker 2: deal of the decade, maybe even longer in New Zealand, 1721 01:19:31,720 --> 01:19:33,040 Speaker 2: Like when are we ever going to see a deal 1722 01:19:33,120 --> 01:19:33,960 Speaker 2: that big in New Zealand? 1723 01:19:34,000 --> 01:19:34,200 Speaker 3: Again? 1724 01:19:34,240 --> 01:19:37,040 Speaker 2: You stitch that together. You're on a high, aren't you? 1725 01:19:37,200 --> 01:19:39,519 Speaker 2: What are you doing hanging around? Everybody knows you quit 1726 01:19:39,560 --> 01:19:41,479 Speaker 2: when you're on a high, because when you quit, when 1727 01:19:41,479 --> 01:19:43,280 Speaker 2: you're on a high, everybody wants you in their business 1728 01:19:43,280 --> 01:19:45,080 Speaker 2: and they're going to offer you top dollar to go across. 1729 01:19:45,439 --> 01:19:47,800 Speaker 2: So presumably that I'm assuming that's what he's doing, and 1730 01:19:47,840 --> 01:19:50,200 Speaker 2: that is incredibly smart if he's doing that. But also, 1731 01:19:50,400 --> 01:19:52,559 Speaker 2: I mean, once you've done the deal, you've done the thing, 1732 01:19:52,680 --> 01:19:54,880 Speaker 2: haven't you Like? Isn't that going to be the pinnacle 1733 01:19:54,920 --> 01:19:57,320 Speaker 2: of all the work at Fonterra. What other work at 1734 01:19:57,400 --> 01:20:00,599 Speaker 2: Fonterra will ever be as challenging or as reward as 1735 01:20:00,680 --> 01:20:03,720 Speaker 2: stitching together this massive deal? In which case you've done 1736 01:20:03,800 --> 01:20:06,519 Speaker 2: the thing, probably need a new challenge in some other business, 1737 01:20:06,600 --> 01:20:09,559 Speaker 2: some other sector whatever, you move on. So I think 1738 01:20:09,600 --> 01:20:11,639 Speaker 2: it was entirely predictable that this was going to happen. 1739 01:20:11,640 --> 01:20:13,280 Speaker 2: I also think it's a smart thing for Miles to do. 1740 01:20:13,360 --> 01:20:15,280 Speaker 2: But yeah, as I say, correct me if I'm wrong. 1741 01:20:15,320 --> 01:20:19,599 Speaker 1: Six twenty six, there's no business like show business. 1742 01:20:20,080 --> 01:20:22,680 Speaker 2: They love to party. Do you want to hear what 1743 01:20:22,880 --> 01:20:25,720 Speaker 2: was in the gift bags at the Oscars? The gift 1744 01:20:25,760 --> 01:20:30,000 Speaker 2: bags are worth a whopping three hundred and fifty thousand dollars. Yes, 1745 01:20:30,280 --> 01:20:32,840 Speaker 2: you heard right, three hundred and fifty thousand dollars is 1746 01:20:32,880 --> 01:20:34,760 Speaker 2: bigger than you'll deposit on your house. That's just in 1747 01:20:34,800 --> 01:20:37,280 Speaker 2: a little bag. They're getting a luxury villa stay in 1748 01:20:37,360 --> 01:20:40,040 Speaker 2: Costa Rica and ibetha plus A ten day holiday in 1749 01:20:40,080 --> 01:20:43,120 Speaker 2: Sri Lanka.

They were 1758 01:21:06,520 --> 01:21:08,320 Speaker 2: all gorgeous smiles. But if they need to be better, 1759 01:21:08,560 --> 01:21:10,519 Speaker 2: they've got that in the gift bag, as well as 1760 01:21:10,600 --> 01:21:14,800 Speaker 2: sculpt and lift facials.

So why don't you think it's 1796 01:22:52,680 --> 01:22:53,320 Speaker 2: going to be that bad? 1797 01:22:55,120 --> 01:22:57,120 Speaker 12: Well, I think it's an evolving situation. 1798 01:22:57,400 --> 01:22:59,439 Speaker 20: But I think where we weigh off having to panic 1799 01:22:59,479 --> 01:23:02,080 Speaker 20: about things just yet, there's plenty of fuel in the country, 1800 01:23:02,680 --> 01:23:05,080 Speaker 20: there's fuel on the way, there's plenty of supply there. 1801 01:23:05,160 --> 01:23:07,400 Speaker 20: I think we're in a better position than many other places. 1802 01:23:09,200 --> 01:23:11,320 Speaker 20: There's probably other challenges that are a little bit closer 1803 01:23:11,400 --> 01:23:13,320 Speaker 20: for us at the moments. On the last week, we've 1804 01:23:13,360 --> 01:23:18,280 Speaker 20: had only two terrine into fairies, two fairies operating over 1805 01:23:18,320 --> 01:23:20,200 Speaker 20: the cook straight. That was probably a bigger issue for 1806 01:23:20,320 --> 01:23:22,400 Speaker 20: us late last week to worry about than fuel. 1807 01:23:22,760 --> 01:23:24,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I would agree with you that we 1808 01:23:24,360 --> 01:23:26,840 Speaker 2: have some issues here that are quite massive. But are 1809 01:23:26,880 --> 01:23:29,840 Speaker 2: you saying that you believe that the fuel price is 1810 01:23:29,960 --> 01:23:31,600 Speaker 2: not going to hit the heights that? I mean some 1811 01:23:31,720 --> 01:23:34,479 Speaker 2: people are talking about four dollars twenty two, four dollars. 1812 01:23:34,520 --> 01:23:35,559 Speaker 2: You don't think it's going to get there? 1813 01:23:37,400 --> 01:23:40,000 Speaker 20: I'm not sure and I don't know. I mean, if 1814 01:23:40,040 --> 01:23:42,599 Speaker 20: you looked at the Ukraine situation back in twenty two, 1815 01:23:43,680 --> 01:23:47,240 Speaker 20: diesel prices hit up around three dollars, and to be honest, 1816 01:23:47,280 --> 01:23:51,120 Speaker 20: I don't remember the same level of annik and the 1817 01:23:51,160 --> 01:23:54,519 Speaker 20: same amount of news around that back then. So I 1818 01:23:54,600 --> 01:23:57,160 Speaker 20: think those things will play out as they do. People 1819 01:23:57,400 --> 01:23:58,920 Speaker 20: will have to have a think about how they can 1820 01:23:59,000 --> 01:24:02,320 Speaker 20: serve fuel and how they manage and work with the budgets. 1821 01:24:02,360 --> 01:24:04,439 Speaker 20: That'll be the same for us as businesses as it 1822 01:24:04,520 --> 01:24:08,880 Speaker 20: well for private citizens. But those things haven't happened yet. 1823 01:24:09,080 --> 01:24:11,360 Speaker 2: Okay, so what do you and I think the other 1824 01:24:11,439 --> 01:24:13,200 Speaker 2: thing that's freaking people out, and I what your take 1825 01:24:13,280 --> 01:24:16,240 Speaker 2: on this mark is that we are sitting here at 1826 01:24:16,280 --> 01:24:19,400 Speaker 2: the moment, we haven't even started to feel the possible 1827 01:24:19,600 --> 01:24:22,400 Speaker 2: effects of any kind of fuel disruption, right because the 1828 01:24:22,439 --> 01:24:25,320 Speaker 2: ships are still they've just landed in Singapore, We've still 1829 01:24:25,360 --> 01:24:28,040 Speaker 2: got our ships coming. So it's almost like we're looking 1830 01:24:28,080 --> 01:24:30,760 Speaker 2: at a storm that's building and coming for us and 1831 01:24:30,840 --> 01:24:33,280 Speaker 2: we're already sitting above three dollars a liter in ninety one. 1832 01:24:33,400 --> 01:24:36,439 Speaker 2: So is it not right to be slightly worried about 1833 01:24:36,479 --> 01:24:37,400 Speaker 2: the lag effect here? 1834 01:24:38,880 --> 01:24:40,559 Speaker 20: Well, I'm not sure if people need to be worried, 1835 01:24:40,760 --> 01:24:42,479 Speaker 20: but I think they need to be prepared, you know, 1836 01:24:42,640 --> 01:24:45,320 Speaker 20: prepare for the worst, hope for the best, and to 1837 01:24:45,479 --> 01:24:49,000 Speaker 20: our business again, just like private citizens, we'll start thinking 1838 01:24:49,040 --> 01:24:51,200 Speaker 20: about what you need to do if you need to 1839 01:24:51,280 --> 01:24:53,479 Speaker 20: use a bit less fuel. I've just driven thirty five 1840 01:24:53,520 --> 01:24:55,880 Speaker 20: minutes back in the traffic and I reckon ninety percent 1841 01:24:55,920 --> 01:24:58,760 Speaker 20: of the vehicle's only had one person in them. You know, 1842 01:24:58,760 --> 01:25:00,320 Speaker 20: there's a whole lot of things that we we can 1843 01:25:00,400 --> 01:25:02,320 Speaker 20: all do and then that we would do in our 1844 01:25:02,360 --> 01:25:05,559 Speaker 20: business if we had to minimize the amount of fuel 1845 01:25:05,600 --> 01:25:07,640 Speaker 20: we were using or reduce the amount of fuel we 1846 01:25:07,720 --> 01:25:09,040 Speaker 20: were using, and there for the cost. 1847 01:25:09,280 --> 01:25:11,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, some of the things though got I feel like 1848 01:25:11,439 --> 01:25:14,040 Speaker 2: I'm but let's put your argument through its paces though. 1849 01:25:15,280 --> 01:25:16,920 Speaker 2: One of the things, I mean, we can talk about 1850 01:25:16,960 --> 01:25:19,599 Speaker 2: potentially cutting down our fuel use, and that may be possible, 1851 01:25:19,640 --> 01:25:21,720 Speaker 2: work from home, carpool, do that kind of thing. But 1852 01:25:21,840 --> 01:25:24,240 Speaker 2: you can't eat less bread and you can't eat less 1853 01:25:24,280 --> 01:25:26,760 Speaker 2: meat right without going hungry. And that's all going to 1854 01:25:26,800 --> 01:25:27,360 Speaker 2: go up, isn't it. 1855 01:25:29,120 --> 01:25:29,280 Speaker 12: Yet? 1856 01:25:29,320 --> 01:25:32,200 Speaker 20: There will be an impact in terms of inflation, So 1857 01:25:32,680 --> 01:25:36,519 Speaker 20: most transport businesses will be lifting fuel adjustment factors or 1858 01:25:36,560 --> 01:25:39,439 Speaker 20: fuel search arges that they have through their businesses. So 1859 01:25:39,640 --> 01:25:41,920 Speaker 20: that type of thing will happen just as it did 1860 01:25:42,040 --> 01:25:44,240 Speaker 20: back in twenty twenty two. They will happen for a 1861 01:25:44,320 --> 01:25:47,799 Speaker 20: period that sort of thing. That we operate a children 1862 01:25:47,880 --> 01:25:49,720 Speaker 20: frozen food business, and a lot of the food we 1863 01:25:49,800 --> 01:25:53,200 Speaker 20: handle has been higher value food, and what we've seen 1864 01:25:53,280 --> 01:25:55,560 Speaker 20: through the recession is that people have consumed less of 1865 01:25:55,600 --> 01:25:58,560 Speaker 20: that higher value food and shifted to cheaper food. So 1866 01:25:58,920 --> 01:26:01,719 Speaker 20: I think those types of things happen all the time 1867 01:26:01,880 --> 01:26:06,000 Speaker 20: in relation to all sorts of impacts fuel prices, be 1868 01:26:06,160 --> 01:26:09,400 Speaker 20: they recessions, be it COVID, so on and so forth. 1869 01:26:09,920 --> 01:26:11,840 Speaker 2: Okay, so what is it that your business is watching. 1870 01:26:12,040 --> 01:26:13,880 Speaker 2: What are the key signs for you that things have 1871 01:26:14,000 --> 01:26:16,640 Speaker 2: gone from being manageable to not. 1872 01:26:18,439 --> 01:26:18,599 Speaker 6: Well? 1873 01:26:18,640 --> 01:26:21,040 Speaker 20: I think for us things are still manageable. I mean, 1874 01:26:21,080 --> 01:26:22,800 Speaker 20: we'll keep a close eye on the amount of fuel 1875 01:26:22,840 --> 01:26:25,120 Speaker 20: in the country and on the way here. There's plenty 1876 01:26:25,120 --> 01:26:27,280 Speaker 20: of lead indicators for that, so we're going to have 1877 01:26:27,360 --> 01:26:30,200 Speaker 20: plenty of notice if there are genuinely. 1878 01:26:29,880 --> 01:26:31,280 Speaker 12: Short fuel shortages. 1879 01:26:31,320 --> 01:26:34,720 Speaker 20: We use jet fuel for the aircraft we run, we 1880 01:26:34,840 --> 01:26:36,559 Speaker 20: use diesel, and we use a little bit of petrol 1881 01:26:36,840 --> 01:26:39,360 Speaker 20: in some vehicles, but we will have plenty of notice 1882 01:26:39,400 --> 01:26:41,320 Speaker 20: of that we're going to see that coming. There's plenty 1883 01:26:41,360 --> 01:26:44,160 Speaker 20: of things we can do that might sacrifice a little 1884 01:26:44,160 --> 01:26:46,960 Speaker 20: bit of timeliness to be a bit more efficient with fuel. 1885 01:26:47,680 --> 01:26:51,120 Speaker 20: If we're talking about twenty percent of fuel supply being 1886 01:26:51,160 --> 01:26:54,360 Speaker 20: impacted through the Strait, and if we use that as 1887 01:26:54,360 --> 01:26:56,760 Speaker 20: a proxy for what we have to adjust for, I 1888 01:26:56,800 --> 01:26:58,599 Speaker 20: don't know. I think if you went back through COVID, 1889 01:26:58,640 --> 01:27:00,200 Speaker 20: you'd find New Zealand used a hell of a lot 1890 01:27:00,280 --> 01:27:01,599 Speaker 20: less fuel during that period. 1891 01:27:01,760 --> 01:27:04,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, fair point. How are you feeling about the impact 1892 01:27:04,960 --> 01:27:07,640 Speaker 2: this might have on GDP? Because mate, I feel like 1893 01:27:07,720 --> 01:27:11,000 Speaker 2: we've just come through COVID, that's been a frasal. Now 1894 01:27:11,080 --> 01:27:13,240 Speaker 2: we've gone through the recession that Adrian All put us in, 1895 01:27:13,280 --> 01:27:15,640 Speaker 2: and we're just coming right and now this is going on. 1896 01:27:15,800 --> 01:27:16,400 Speaker 7: So I don't know. 1897 01:27:16,479 --> 01:27:17,600 Speaker 2: What do you think this is going to do to 1898 01:27:17,680 --> 01:27:18,200 Speaker 2: the economy. 1899 01:27:19,320 --> 01:27:20,800 Speaker 12: Well, look, it could put a little then. 1900 01:27:20,880 --> 01:27:23,599 Speaker 20: I'm not an economist by any means, but I've been 1901 01:27:23,640 --> 01:27:26,000 Speaker 20: in this business a long time and seeing plenty of impacts. 1902 01:27:26,000 --> 01:27:29,920 Speaker 20: I seeing probably three recessions go through. Look, I think 1903 01:27:30,000 --> 01:27:33,680 Speaker 20: the underlying fundamentals are okay. We were starting to see 1904 01:27:33,760 --> 01:27:36,479 Speaker 20: customers trade up up to this point, it's a little 1905 01:27:36,479 --> 01:27:39,240 Speaker 20: early to tell whether that has changed yet, but look, 1906 01:27:39,280 --> 01:27:43,880 Speaker 20: I'm reasonably optimistic that we'll come through this. If there's 1907 01:27:43,880 --> 01:27:45,960 Speaker 20: a little hit, everyone wears a little hit. If there's 1908 01:27:45,960 --> 01:27:48,960 Speaker 20: a bit of inflation, you know, maybe that's temporary, depending 1909 01:27:48,960 --> 01:27:51,040 Speaker 20: on how long this goes for. But I think I 1910 01:27:51,120 --> 01:27:53,200 Speaker 20: think part of our funk over here, and I spend 1911 01:27:53,280 --> 01:27:55,679 Speaker 20: quite a bit of time in Australia, we sometimes talk 1912 01:27:55,720 --> 01:27:59,840 Speaker 20: ourselves into a funk, and Australia is facing largely so 1913 01:28:00,080 --> 01:28:03,200 Speaker 20: the conditions, higher levels inflation. But geez, most of the 1914 01:28:03,280 --> 01:28:06,000 Speaker 20: customers and operators over there are talking pretty positively. 1915 01:28:06,439 --> 01:28:07,559 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a fair point you make. 1916 01:28:07,600 --> 01:28:07,760 Speaker 9: Mark. 1917 01:28:07,960 --> 01:28:09,920 Speaker 2: Thank you as always really appreciate talking to you. Mark 1918 01:28:10,000 --> 01:28:13,360 Speaker 2: tro here, who's the Freightway's chief executive. Nineteen away from 1919 01:28:13,400 --> 01:28:17,080 Speaker 2: seven to do for c Allen Heather. Do you understand 1920 01:28:17,080 --> 01:28:19,360 Speaker 2: how this is such a power moved by Trump? Oh, 1921 01:28:19,680 --> 01:28:23,360 Speaker 2: this is reed, This is obviously re Trump asking all 1922 01:28:23,439 --> 01:28:26,000 Speaker 2: that you know, his allies, plus also China to send 1923 01:28:26,520 --> 01:28:29,920 Speaker 2: vessels over to secure the strait of whole moves. Do 1924 01:28:30,000 --> 01:28:32,040 Speaker 2: you understand how this is such a power moved by Trump? 1925 01:28:32,160 --> 01:28:34,200 Speaker 2: China is damned if they do, and damned if they don't. 1926 01:28:34,600 --> 01:28:36,599 Speaker 2: If they don't, their oil supply will be cut off 1927 01:28:36,640 --> 01:28:38,160 Speaker 2: for longer, and they will have to deal with Trump 1928 01:28:38,240 --> 01:28:40,600 Speaker 2: directly once he has finished securing it. If they do, 1929 01:28:40,840 --> 01:28:43,120 Speaker 2: they will be publicly siding with the enemy of their ally, 1930 01:28:43,160 --> 01:28:45,800 Speaker 2: and that will destroy all other such relationships they have 1931 01:28:46,479 --> 01:28:49,360 Speaker 2: with other countries, as well as publicly humiliating China on 1932 01:28:49,400 --> 01:28:51,160 Speaker 2: the world stage. Because they submitted to Trump in the 1933 01:28:51,280 --> 01:28:54,800 Speaker 2: usay both make invading Taiwan impossible. Also, they now know 1934 01:28:54,920 --> 01:28:57,200 Speaker 2: that none of the military equipment is effective in the 1935 01:28:57,400 --> 01:28:59,559 Speaker 2: least way to ours, and Taiwan has been well supplied 1936 01:28:59,600 --> 01:29:04,400 Speaker 2: by US. Yeah, it's a fair point, but I'm not 1937 01:29:04,439 --> 01:29:09,080 Speaker 2: feeling quite as confident because what is There is some 1938 01:29:09,320 --> 01:29:13,400 Speaker 2: oil coming through the strata hummus and the it's it's 1939 01:29:13,600 --> 01:29:16,479 Speaker 2: just not our oil, it's China's oil. China's oil and 1940 01:29:16,640 --> 01:29:19,080 Speaker 2: n India's oil is getting through because that's what Iran 1941 01:29:19,200 --> 01:29:20,920 Speaker 2: is leaving through. And I remember about five days ago 1942 01:29:20,920 --> 01:29:22,800 Speaker 2: they said about twelve million barrels had got through. Now 1943 01:29:22,840 --> 01:29:25,320 Speaker 2: that's not actually that much in the scheme of things, 1944 01:29:25,800 --> 01:29:28,720 Speaker 2: but there is. Yeah, maybe China doesn't need to worry 1945 01:29:28,760 --> 01:29:30,600 Speaker 2: about it so much. Hither it will be interesting to 1946 01:29:30,640 --> 01:29:33,479 Speaker 2: see if Chippy cancels his regular media rounds tomorrow. That 1947 01:29:33,600 --> 01:29:36,599 Speaker 2: is actually a fair point. Apparently somebody text me earlier 1948 01:29:36,640 --> 01:29:39,000 Speaker 2: and said some so third hand, So I'm just gonna 1949 01:29:39,000 --> 01:29:41,439 Speaker 2: be completely honest about it. But somebody text me earlier 1950 01:29:41,520 --> 01:29:45,040 Speaker 2: and said, Labour's gone very quiet on social media and 1951 01:29:45,080 --> 01:29:46,880 Speaker 2: they're not seeing anything because of course the x Ye 1952 01:29:46,960 --> 01:29:49,599 Speaker 2: hijacked one of their posts because Chippy done a little 1953 01:29:49,600 --> 01:29:51,880 Speaker 2: thing where he was like, it's really important to me jobs, 1954 01:29:52,000 --> 01:29:54,720 Speaker 2: houses and whatever else health I think it was, and 1955 01:29:54,840 --> 01:29:57,360 Speaker 2: so she then reposted it and hijacked it with her 1956 01:29:57,520 --> 01:29:59,680 Speaker 2: version of events at the top. And now they've just 1957 01:29:59,720 --> 01:30:03,120 Speaker 2: gone quiet, presumably to I don't know, not draw any 1958 01:30:03,120 --> 01:30:08,720 Speaker 2: attention to themselves. We'll see what happens tomorrow. Kyle and Jackie. Oh, 1959 01:30:08,960 --> 01:30:11,120 Speaker 2: the story. This is the story that has captivated me, 1960 01:30:11,240 --> 01:30:15,200 Speaker 2: the radio duo over in Australia. And first of all, 1961 01:30:15,240 --> 01:30:17,120 Speaker 2: I was interested in it because of course they are 1962 01:30:17,200 --> 01:30:20,439 Speaker 2: extremely wealthy on their radio contracts, like these guys are 1963 01:30:20,439 --> 01:30:24,000 Speaker 2: earning ten million dollars a year each for working for ARN. 1964 01:30:24,400 --> 01:30:27,800 Speaker 2: But now so that and just like how profane he is, 1965 01:30:27,960 --> 01:30:30,639 Speaker 2: just the whole thing has been fascinating that it blew 1966 01:30:30,720 --> 01:30:32,680 Speaker 2: up the way it did. What's become fascinating to me 1967 01:30:32,840 --> 01:30:36,479 Speaker 2: now is how quite clearly arn is just using this 1968 01:30:36,560 --> 01:30:37,920 Speaker 2: as an excuse to try to get rid of them 1969 01:30:37,960 --> 01:30:40,439 Speaker 2: because they cost so much. The latest thing is tomorrow 1970 01:30:40,600 --> 01:30:42,600 Speaker 2: is the deadline. So remember they put them on like 1971 01:30:42,640 --> 01:30:45,240 Speaker 2: a twelve week a two week probation period with Alex 1972 01:30:45,280 --> 01:30:46,880 Speaker 2: suspended him and then they're going to deal with all 1973 01:30:46,920 --> 01:30:49,479 Speaker 2: the staff and figure out what to do. That's that, 1974 01:30:49,600 --> 01:30:52,400 Speaker 2: apparently is just basically par for the course before you 1975 01:30:52,560 --> 01:30:55,400 Speaker 2: fire somebody like that in Australia. I'm so I'm told 1976 01:30:56,120 --> 01:30:59,160 Speaker 2: that deadline runs out Tomorrow's tomorrow, we should find out something. 1977 01:30:59,439 --> 01:31:01,679 Speaker 2: But the second thing is that the regulator has finally 1978 01:31:01,760 --> 01:31:06,080 Speaker 2: slapped license conditions on the network, so it's made it probably, 1979 01:31:06,160 --> 01:31:07,560 Speaker 2: I mean, depending on which way you look at it 1980 01:31:07,720 --> 01:31:10,240 Speaker 2: might make it hard to run a show like these again, 1981 01:31:10,320 --> 01:31:12,760 Speaker 2: thereby basically cutting it off as Sneeze is not going 1982 01:31:12,800 --> 01:31:16,040 Speaker 2: to happen. Possibly anyway, we'll find out tomorrow, sixteen away 1983 01:31:16,080 --> 01:31:16,479 Speaker 2: from seven. 1984 01:31:17,120 --> 01:31:19,800 Speaker 1: Ever, it's to do with money. It matters to you. 1985 01:31:20,280 --> 01:31:24,320 Speaker 1: The Business Hour with Heather Duplicy, Allen and Mas Insurance 1986 01:31:24,400 --> 01:31:28,519 Speaker 1: and Investments, Your futures in good hands us talks, that'd 1987 01:31:28,600 --> 01:31:29,320 Speaker 1: be Heather. 1988 01:31:29,200 --> 01:31:32,280 Speaker 2: We are bloody catastrophizers in New Zealand, bloody negative ninety 1989 01:31:32,400 --> 01:31:34,200 Speaker 2: one octane. Oh, I think that's supposed to. Oh, he 1990 01:31:34,320 --> 01:31:36,479 Speaker 2: was doing the global elite thing where he forgot to 1991 01:31:36,479 --> 01:31:38,800 Speaker 2: put a this is Tony didn't put a full stop. 1992 01:31:38,800 --> 01:31:40,360 Speaker 2: Allow me to put a full stop and reread that 1993 01:31:40,479 --> 01:31:44,719 Speaker 2: sentence to you. Bloody negative full stop ninety one octane 1994 01:31:44,800 --> 01:31:47,679 Speaker 2: was three dollars fifteen in May twenty twenty two. Bloody hell. 1995 01:31:48,360 --> 01:31:52,519 Speaker 2: Everything is hotter, colder, more densely, dense, more rainy, more drafty, 1996 01:31:52,640 --> 01:31:57,280 Speaker 2: more bigger, more harder. Tony, he's writing a text like Epstein, 1997 01:31:57,360 --> 01:32:02,439 Speaker 2: isn't he random? A but of optimism and resilience Tony, Well, 1998 01:32:02,479 --> 01:32:04,719 Speaker 2: we know what Tony means, even if Tony is writing 1999 01:32:04,840 --> 01:32:07,559 Speaker 2: like he's flixing on us. Here twelve away from seven, 2000 01:32:08,040 --> 01:32:11,760 Speaker 2: Kevin Gray are UK correspondents with us. Hello, Gevin, Hi 2001 01:32:11,880 --> 01:32:13,600 Speaker 2: there he Okay? So Stamers is no to. 2002 01:32:13,640 --> 01:32:16,639 Speaker 12: A ship at the moment. 2003 01:32:16,760 --> 01:32:19,320 Speaker 21: That's certainly the way it's looking. Some of the newspapers 2004 01:32:19,400 --> 01:32:23,559 Speaker 21: are reporting that Sirkis Starmer is not going to accept 2005 01:32:24,240 --> 01:32:28,599 Speaker 21: the invitation from Donald Trump to police the waterway known 2006 01:32:28,640 --> 01:32:30,200 Speaker 21: as the Strait of Horn Moves, which of course is 2007 01:32:30,200 --> 01:32:32,680 Speaker 21: blocked because of Iran, and that has led to a 2008 01:32:32,760 --> 01:32:37,320 Speaker 21: massive spike in oil prices. Now it's being reported that 2009 01:32:38,200 --> 01:32:41,040 Speaker 21: the pair Donald Trump and Sekiir Starmer had a phone 2010 01:32:41,080 --> 01:32:45,280 Speaker 21: call and that since that phone call, Sekiir Starmer was 2011 01:32:45,360 --> 01:32:50,439 Speaker 21: offering mine hunting drones and missile interceptors to keep the 2012 01:32:51,320 --> 01:32:56,720 Speaker 21: shipping route open, but has not offered to place some 2013 01:32:56,880 --> 01:32:59,080 Speaker 21: of the other vessels in the street in order to 2014 01:32:59,120 --> 01:33:02,640 Speaker 21: effectively police it, to let the tankers and freighters go 2015 01:33:02,840 --> 01:33:06,360 Speaker 21: through whilst trying to protect them from Iranian drones. So 2016 01:33:07,920 --> 01:33:10,280 Speaker 21: Donald Trump on Air Force One just actually in the 2017 01:33:10,360 --> 01:33:12,920 Speaker 21: last twenty minutes or so saying he's speaking to about 2018 01:33:13,000 --> 01:33:16,439 Speaker 21: seven countries about police in the waterway. It'll be interesting 2019 01:33:16,479 --> 01:33:18,880 Speaker 21: to see which countries help in what he called a 2020 01:33:19,040 --> 01:33:22,240 Speaker 21: very very small endeavor that he also warned in an 2021 01:33:22,280 --> 01:33:24,960 Speaker 21: interview with the UK's Financial Times a little earlier, it 2022 01:33:25,000 --> 01:33:27,640 Speaker 21: would be very bad for the future of NATO if 2023 01:33:27,720 --> 01:33:30,920 Speaker 21: allies don't secure the critical waterway. 2024 01:33:30,560 --> 01:33:31,160 Speaker 12: With the US. 2025 01:33:31,280 --> 01:33:32,799 Speaker 2: I mean, are we taking that as a three. 2026 01:33:34,120 --> 01:33:36,360 Speaker 21: Very much so, I would suggest, But of course we've 2027 01:33:36,400 --> 01:33:39,280 Speaker 21: been here before. Last week, Donald Trump saying he didn't 2028 01:33:39,360 --> 01:33:42,759 Speaker 21: need Britain's warships. We joined it too late. He'd already 2029 01:33:42,760 --> 01:33:45,479 Speaker 21: won the war. This weekend, a completely different Donald Trump. 2030 01:33:45,760 --> 01:33:49,479 Speaker 2: Okay, what's the problem with heating oil for you guys, Well, 2031 01:33:49,880 --> 01:33:50,800 Speaker 2: heating oil. 2032 01:33:50,640 --> 01:33:53,680 Speaker 21: In this country does not come under the regulation of 2033 01:33:54,320 --> 01:33:57,880 Speaker 21: a price cap, which gas and electricity for heating and 2034 01:33:57,920 --> 01:34:03,560 Speaker 21: hot water do. Moment, those using electricity or gas for 2035 01:34:03,800 --> 01:34:07,960 Speaker 21: heating are going to see, yes, a rise in arise 2036 01:34:08,040 --> 01:34:11,679 Speaker 21: in energy prices, but it'll be capped by the government's 2037 01:34:11,760 --> 01:34:14,800 Speaker 21: regulator off GEM, and it'll be smoothed out over a 2038 01:34:14,880 --> 01:34:17,840 Speaker 21: long period of time and will probably be much less 2039 01:34:17,920 --> 01:34:20,880 Speaker 21: of a spiking rise that we've seen currently for the 2040 01:34:21,040 --> 01:34:25,240 Speaker 21: oil prices. However, those who use oil for heating in 2041 01:34:25,360 --> 01:34:28,960 Speaker 21: the UK are not under that cap, and therefore they 2042 01:34:29,040 --> 01:34:32,160 Speaker 21: won't benefit from it, and therefore they are seeing these 2043 01:34:32,360 --> 01:34:35,760 Speaker 21: massive spikes in energy prices. People are being told that 2044 01:34:35,880 --> 01:34:39,040 Speaker 21: they go to fill their outdoor oil drum for their 2045 01:34:39,080 --> 01:34:42,000 Speaker 21: heating and are being told it's double, or being told 2046 01:34:42,080 --> 01:34:43,960 Speaker 21: there isn't the oil around and they're going to be 2047 01:34:44,040 --> 01:34:47,320 Speaker 21: put on a new contract which hoever, surprise surprise, is 2048 01:34:47,520 --> 01:34:50,880 Speaker 21: much more expensive. So secure starma and the UK Government 2049 01:34:50,960 --> 01:34:55,200 Speaker 21: to announce some kind of a support for those households, 2050 01:34:55,479 --> 01:34:57,599 Speaker 21: and it is a lot. In fact, in Northern Ireland 2051 01:34:57,600 --> 01:35:01,800 Speaker 21: it's roughly half of all all households use oil for heating, 2052 01:35:01,880 --> 01:35:04,840 Speaker 21: so it is pretty extensive in some five hundred thousand 2053 01:35:04,920 --> 01:35:07,519 Speaker 21: homes using it in Northern Ireland, two thirds of all 2054 01:35:07,600 --> 01:35:10,360 Speaker 21: households that actually is in that part of the UK, 2055 01:35:11,040 --> 01:35:13,800 Speaker 21: whereas about three percent of households in England and Wales 2056 01:35:13,880 --> 01:35:16,720 Speaker 21: said oil is their only source of central heating, So 2057 01:35:17,040 --> 01:35:19,639 Speaker 21: it is something that's important to those people. Will wait 2058 01:35:19,640 --> 01:35:21,080 Speaker 21: to see what the government's. 2059 01:35:20,680 --> 01:35:22,920 Speaker 5: Action is now. 2060 01:35:24,439 --> 01:35:26,800 Speaker 2: Is what is Megan and Harry actually, what are they 2061 01:35:26,920 --> 01:35:29,200 Speaker 2: actually going to do about this author that they're unhappy with. 2062 01:35:30,439 --> 01:35:33,840 Speaker 21: Well, I can't see at the moment a threat of litigation, 2063 01:35:34,080 --> 01:35:37,200 Speaker 21: but that is at the moment. Basically, there is a 2064 01:35:37,400 --> 01:35:40,559 Speaker 21: new book coming out by Tom Bayo, who's a well 2065 01:35:40,640 --> 01:35:45,479 Speaker 21: known royal watcher, and he claims that Queen Camiller told 2066 01:35:45,520 --> 01:35:51,080 Speaker 21: a friend that Meghan had brainwashed Prince Harry, and there's 2067 01:35:51,120 --> 01:35:54,759 Speaker 21: a lot more besides saying Meghan became a divisive agent 2068 01:35:54,920 --> 01:35:57,160 Speaker 21: within the royal family and was seen by the Prince 2069 01:35:57,240 --> 01:36:03,280 Speaker 21: of Wales William and Catherine as a real threat to 2070 01:36:03,520 --> 01:36:06,439 Speaker 21: the future of the royal family. Now a spokesman for 2071 01:36:06,640 --> 01:36:09,200 Speaker 21: Harry and Meghan has seen these excerpts they've started to 2072 01:36:09,240 --> 01:36:12,160 Speaker 21: be published in the Times and have really come and 2073 01:36:12,240 --> 01:36:16,200 Speaker 21: hitting back. They're saying that this author is deranged, conspiracy 2074 01:36:16,240 --> 01:36:20,520 Speaker 21: in melodrama, and that it's all absolutely nonsense. 2075 01:36:20,680 --> 01:36:20,960 Speaker 1: Quote. 2076 01:36:21,040 --> 01:36:24,080 Speaker 21: This is someone who has publicly stated the monarchy in 2077 01:36:24,200 --> 01:36:27,880 Speaker 21: fact depends on actually obliterating the Sussexes from our state 2078 01:36:28,200 --> 01:36:31,439 Speaker 21: of life. And he, they say, Megan and Harry said 2079 01:36:31,439 --> 01:36:34,960 Speaker 21: the language largely speaks for itself, saying that the author 2080 01:36:35,000 --> 01:36:37,479 Speaker 21: had made a career out of constructing ever more elaborate 2081 01:36:37,560 --> 01:36:40,360 Speaker 21: theories about people he does not know and has never met. 2082 01:36:40,400 --> 01:36:43,880 Speaker 21: It's pretty excuriating, But I can see the book selling well. 2083 01:36:44,000 --> 01:36:47,120 Speaker 21: Meghan and Harry remain pretty unpopular for many here in 2084 01:36:47,240 --> 01:36:47,839 Speaker 21: the population. 2085 01:36:48,040 --> 01:36:49,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, for obvious Reasonskevin, good to talk to you. We'll 2086 01:36:49,920 --> 01:36:51,439 Speaker 2: talk to you in a couple of days. Look after yourself. 2087 01:36:51,840 --> 01:36:55,080 Speaker 2: Hither ninety one fuel here on Great Barrier is already 2088 01:36:55,160 --> 01:37:00,760 Speaker 2: four dollars twenty two. Well, yeah, I suppose I was 2089 01:37:00,800 --> 01:37:02,639 Speaker 2: going to say, that's the price you pay for living 2090 01:37:02,760 --> 01:37:04,280 Speaker 2: in such a remote part of the world. And then 2091 01:37:04,320 --> 01:37:06,280 Speaker 2: I thought about, well, isn't that just a bigger version 2092 01:37:06,320 --> 01:37:08,639 Speaker 2: of New Zealand? Really seven away from seven. 2093 01:37:09,920 --> 01:37:13,160 Speaker 1: It's the Heather Toople.

I think we 2097 01:37:22,920 --> 01:37:25,519 Speaker 2: took ourselves into half of the problems that we experienced. 2098 01:37:25,520 --> 01:37:27,160 Speaker 2: It's time that we grew up. Colin, thank you. 2099 01:37:27,640 --> 01:37:27,840 Speaker 1: Now. 2100 01:37:29,000 --> 01:37:30,640 Speaker 2: One of the things that the ladies like to do 2101 01:37:30,720 --> 01:37:32,160 Speaker 2: this is really the Oscars.
