1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:04,120 Speaker 1: Barrisoer, senior political correspondent with US Barry, have you got 2 00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:06,200 Speaker 1: any intel on what's going on in that pole tonight? 3 00:00:06,280 --> 00:00:08,680 Speaker 2: Well, I've done a bit of talking around and it 4 00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:12,479 Speaker 2: would seem that the general view is the one news 5 00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:14,960 Speaker 2: variant pole tonight it's a bit of a fizzit and 6 00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:18,680 Speaker 2: that would okay that it hasn't really changed that much, 7 00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:21,040 Speaker 2: And it really hasn't changed that much this year when 8 00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:24,279 Speaker 2: you consider it. The last poll had a national on 9 00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:27,800 Speaker 2: thirty eight up two percent, Labor down one percent to 10 00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:31,800 Speaker 2: twenty nine. The Greens were very strong at thirteen even 11 00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:34,400 Speaker 2: though they dropped slightly. ACT was there at seven and 12 00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:37,400 Speaker 2: New Zealand first at six. The one before that had 13 00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:40,600 Speaker 2: New Zealand first, not even in parliament. So yeah, the 14 00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:43,320 Speaker 2: general views it's a phissit. It comes out at six o'clock, 15 00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:46,519 Speaker 2: so I guess we'll all be glued and pick up 16 00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:47,320 Speaker 2: exactly where. 17 00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:49,000 Speaker 1: We'll all be gloo into Neuce Talk ZB Drive. We 18 00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:51,479 Speaker 1: will immediately have the results. Yes, that's exactly what's going 19 00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:51,840 Speaker 1: to happen. 20 00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:52,120 Speaker 2: Thank you. 21 00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:54,840 Speaker 1: Has just arrived at the Democratic National Convention well. 22 00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:58,000 Speaker 2: As I understand it. Of course, Camilla Harris is there 23 00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:03,240 Speaker 2: and Ordinarily, these conventions in an election year like this 24 00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:08,759 Speaker 2: would confirm a presidential nominee, while she's already been confirmed. 25 00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:13,480 Speaker 2: Very unusual circumstances, of course, with Joe Biden stepping down, 26 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:17,280 Speaker 2: she's apparently expected to share the stage with Joe Biden 27 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:23,639 Speaker 2: within the next five to ten hours in Chicago, justinto derness, 28 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:30,240 Speaker 2: quite extraordinary. She's been invited to Chicago by some outfit 29 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:35,160 Speaker 2: there that called the Center for American Progress Action Fund, 30 00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:42,480 Speaker 2: and they say that their mantra essentially is to have 31 00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 2: a non partisan policy institute and they like progressive, bold 32 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 2: ideas as well as strong leadership and concerted action. Well, 33 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:53,600 Speaker 2: she'll be on a panel, which is very unusual for 34 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:57,400 Speaker 2: somebody from not in America. She'll be on a panel 35 00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:00,600 Speaker 2: giving her views on what a kind leader she was 36 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 2: in this country. And you know, it's the thing that 37 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:07,280 Speaker 2: doesn't surprise me that Justina A. Durn whenever I traveled 38 00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 2: with her overseas, she was in big demand, and mainly 39 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:14,160 Speaker 2: it was because of the dreadful events that happened in 40 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:19,040 Speaker 2: Christchurch with the mosque shooting. So she became well known 41 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:22,920 Speaker 2: instantly really and her ban on guns that was popular 42 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:26,359 Speaker 2: with the anti gun people in the United States. So 43 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:31,560 Speaker 2: she's still a fairly prominent person overseas and that's where 44 00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 2: of course she's living now. So so yeah, they've trotted 45 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 2: her out and she'll be on a panel. She'll be 46 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:41,320 Speaker 2: rubbing shoulders with Barack Obama. He'll be there along with 47 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,959 Speaker 2: of course Joe Biden. So Jinda a durn will be 48 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 2: really in her element there now. 49 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 1: Barry, it seems to me act was not invited to 50 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:50,639 Speaker 1: today's stuff. 51 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 2: No, it was invited. I can tell you it was invited. 52 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:54,240 Speaker 1: O can tell me how you know this. 53 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:58,920 Speaker 2: It was invited last May, and they were told that 54 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 2: there was going to be a whole ferry for political parties. 55 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:07,400 Speaker 2: But I think the view of actors that the day 56 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:10,040 Speaker 2: for the political part is to be present is not 57 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:14,240 Speaker 2: just Rattina, because there's no real expectation for people to 58 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 2: be at Rautina. It's a Whitani day, which is always 59 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 2: observed by politicians of every political queue. That act decided 60 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:26,520 Speaker 2: against going to this particular event because it's not a 61 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 2: political event, very unusual for politicians to turn out in force. 62 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 1: That you're talking about from May. 63 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 2: I can't read that too far. 64 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 1: Away, age because you're a boomer. Have you look at that? 65 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 1: Is that the invitation? Because that invitation only mentions a 66 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 1: poor forty on Wednesday, which is the one that they 67 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 1: say they were invited to today's Monday. There is no 68 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 1: mention of it in the invitation. 69 00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, look I was told that they were invited. 70 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:52,880 Speaker 2: They knew there was an invitation on the table. 71 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 1: The body Kings people tell you that. 72 00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:58,520 Speaker 2: No, no, they didn't know. It was a bit closer 73 00:03:58,560 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 2: to home to ACT. 74 00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:02,560 Speaker 1: Okay, all right, we'll have to I'll believe them for 75 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 1: I'll belied you for information during the break and then 76 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 1: come back when do an assessment of whether you're on 77 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 1: the money or not. 78 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 2: But then they're all there, I mean, except for Act 79 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 2: and don't forget to very unusually King to Hantea in 80 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 2: fact criticize roundly ACT and basically told Maldi to gather 81 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:28,479 Speaker 2: forces against the coalition government. That's very unusual. He's the 82 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:31,120 Speaker 2: head of the king he Tongue movement. But you know 83 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:35,800 Speaker 2: it's unusual for the Maori royalty to try and get 84 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:38,160 Speaker 2: the troops against the government and the way he has done. 85 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:42,719 Speaker 1: Hey, this crackdown on breath testing, I love it because 86 00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:44,360 Speaker 1: I want to see the roads be a safer place. 87 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 1: But I imagine that there will be a little bit 88 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 1: of negative reaction from people who get annoyed about this stuff. 89 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:51,600 Speaker 2: Well, the only problem, I guess is and it's manning them. 90 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:54,200 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, if you've got to take you know, 91 00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:58,680 Speaker 2: three point three million million breath tests, it's going to 92 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 2: be one hell of a job to get demanded, particularly 93 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 2: when there's so many demands on police, particularly violent. 94 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 1: Listen, the cops get paid for this, so where else 95 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:09,480 Speaker 1: do you get paid for a service? And then you go, 96 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 1: I'm only going to do half. 97 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:14,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, I guess they're too busy is the answers. 98 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 1: And don't take the money, which is what's going on here. 99 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 2: Yeah. No, I wasn't aware until I heard you say 100 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:22,839 Speaker 2: earlier that there was money involved. Yeah, and I'm sure 101 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:26,320 Speaker 2: that they'll be out there. We'll see the booze buses 102 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 2: around the place. The drug testing is the other thing 103 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 2: that I think is a big step forward. 104 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:32,720 Speaker 1: Hi, Grithie Berry, Thank you very much.
