In New Zealand, ditched 64 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 3: its twenty thirty targets for you know, climate change targets, 65 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:31,320 Speaker 3: says it will still be net zero by twenty fifty, 66 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 3: so it's an interim target. But I mean, really, you're 67 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 3: an airline, you use jet fuel, You're gonna you know, 68 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 3: there's gonna be some impact on the environment.

Sure, do what you can. 76 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 3: But I mean, don't cut your nose off a spite 77 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 3: your face, I guess, is what I'm saying. Hamas you 78 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 3: would have seen this in the news. This is the 79 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:12,960 Speaker 3: leader Ismail Hanair who has been killed. Assassinated they think, 80 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:17,680 Speaker 3: they assume by Israeli rocketfire in Tehran. He was a 81 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 3: former Prime Minister of the Palestinian authority, this guy, and 82 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:23,279 Speaker 3: he was a key member of the group that's been 83 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:26,880 Speaker 3: trying to get a ceasefire. So you would have to say, 84 00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:28,600 Speaker 3: when you've got one of the leaders who's trying to 85 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:32,560 Speaker 3: get a ceasefire being killed. He was a diplomat essentially 86 00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 3: of that political wing of Hamas, you would have to 87 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:37,919 Speaker 3: say that it's not looking good for a ceasefire. And 88 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:41,159 Speaker 3: then on the other side, so you've got Israel doing 89 00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 3: strikes into Tehran, You've got Israel obviously it's offensive in Gaza. 90 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:48,600 Speaker 3: And then on the other side, you've got them worrying 91 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 3: about Hezbula and Lebanon and they're still you know, they've 92 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:54,320 Speaker 3: hit one guy in Beirut there, but they've got more 93 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 3: to do. You know, at what point does Israel actually 94 00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 3: spread itself too thin and start to the resources from 95 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 3: what it really wants to do in Gaza, and does 96 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:07,159 Speaker 3: that limit its response everywhere else. We're gonna ask an 97 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 3: expert about that inside the next half hour. 98 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:11,080 Speaker 2: Also, A and Z. 99 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 3: You might not have seen this, but from this morning 100 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 3: they've cut some rates, so the second time in a 101 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 3: month for them. So from today, the three year fixed 102 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 3: rate is down thirty six basis points to five point 103 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:29,000 Speaker 3: nine to nine percent. The floating variable home loan rate 104 00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 3: is down fifteen basis points to eight point four nine percent. 105 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:37,720 Speaker 3: The business floating and business overdraft base rates are also 106 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:41,080 Speaker 3: dropping fifteen basis points. Don't forget the Reserve Bank. Here's 107 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:44,200 Speaker 3: next decision is due August fourteenth, and as I said 108 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:47,040 Speaker 3: to you yesterday, the US Federal Reserve. Their announcement is 109 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:51,359 Speaker 3: due any minute now this morning our time. They're expected 110 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 3: to hold steady there, but will look at cuts from September. 111 00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 3: They reckon it has just gone twelve after five. 112 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:02,839 Speaker 4: Ryan Bridge for twenty twenty four on early edition with 113 00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:06,119 Speaker 4: Smith City, New Zealand's furniture beds and a playing store 114 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 4: news dog zid Bey. 115 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 3: Fourteen minutes after five nine two ninety two is the 116 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:12,719 Speaker 3: number to checks I look for to hearing from you 117 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 3: over the next hour. Hamas's leader Ismaeilhnair has been assassinated 118 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:18,880 Speaker 3: inside Tehran in Iran. 119 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 2: It's the capitol. 120 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:23,200 Speaker 3: No one has claimed responsibility yet, but analysts on the 121 00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:27,000 Speaker 3: Iranian state television have placed the blame squarely with Israel 122 00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 3: for the attack. Israel doesn't normally talk about any of 123 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 3: its offensives overseas, so in what direction could this take 124 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 3: the conflict from here? The Otago University Senior lecturer for 125 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:40,719 Speaker 3: Middle Eastern and comparative politics is doctor Leon Goldsmith, good morning, 126 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 3: good on, good morning. 127 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:48,880 Speaker 2: Can you hear me? Okay, then yeah, I can hear you. 128 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:49,800 Speaker 2: Find excellent. 129 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:52,280 Speaker 3: First of all, what do you think this is going 130 00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 3: to do? Because this leader Ismael Hnair was obviously on 131 00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 3: the diplomatic offensive to try and get a cease fire. 132 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 3: Does this mean a ceasefires who they're out of reach? 133 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:04,920 Speaker 7: Yeah? I think this probably takes the s FI ideal 134 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:12,320 Speaker 7: off the table for now, definitely removes that possibility. But 135 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 7: I think what it was is that Israel is probably 136 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 7: sending a very strong message that none are safe. I 137 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 7: think we've had thebeal and number two in Hamas number 138 00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 7: one killed inside one day in the capital of Lebanon 139 00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 7: and Eran. It's fairly significant and it could course a 140 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 7: major reverberations. 141 00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:32,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, because it's not. 142 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 3: In the case of Lebanon, they're not just heading you know, 143 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:38,440 Speaker 3: the southern border. They've actually they've actually struck them in 144 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:41,400 Speaker 3: be I mean they're heading to the capitals here, aren't they. 145 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 7: Which is precisely what the US asked them not to do. 146 00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:48,640 Speaker 3: So do you in some ways do we take heart 147 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:52,160 Speaker 3: from the fact that they are quite limited in scope? 148 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:59,400 Speaker 7: Well, I think what these are very strategic, targeted assassinations 149 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:04,480 Speaker 7: of people that Israelis believe responsible for October seven and 150 00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:09,000 Speaker 7: another attacks against Israel. So this is their policy for 151 00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 7: some time of disproportionate retaliation against individuals. So Ismahani is 152 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:19,000 Speaker 7: the most senior person to be targeted and assassinate, assassinated 153 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:24,280 Speaker 7: since October seven and until that was until yesterday. Previously 154 00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:25,880 Speaker 7: it would have been for a shaka who was killed 155 00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:32,000 Speaker 7: in Beirut, So I think it's I think it may 156 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 7: have just also been timing here because normally Ismahanir would 157 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,120 Speaker 7: have been in Doha, which would have been somewhere with 158 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 7: Israel would never touch him. The fact that he happened 159 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:46,200 Speaker 7: to be in Tehran for the inauguration of Revenue president 160 00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:49,840 Speaker 7: gave Israelis an opportunity to hit him. 161 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 3: Right, your assessment basically sees fire off the table for 162 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 3: now as a result of this. What about risk of 163 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:57,040 Speaker 3: a wider conflict? 164 00:08:57,880 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 2: What is that? 165 00:08:58,480 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 7: What? 166 00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 3: What what does it take before we take over into 167 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 3: that territory. 168 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:05,560 Speaker 7: Well, I think there's going to be some very serious 169 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 7: conversations happening in Tehran right now and beate routes. So 170 00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 7: I think, on one hand, there's a lot of analysts 171 00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 7: source suggesting that there is there's no way that Israel 172 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 7: can not retaliate in some way, either via Hizballah through 173 00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 7: Southern eleven nine, also trying to ramp up attacks via 174 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 7: Alahofi drones, rockets from Yemen. Also, as we're body seen 175 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:38,680 Speaker 7: previously in April, direct missile launches from Iran to Israel, 176 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 7: which will have a high degree of risk of regional escalation. 177 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 7: We also have US forces approaching the Lebanese coast warships again, 178 00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:55,520 Speaker 7: so the pieces are looking quite concerning here. What we 179 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:58,559 Speaker 7: may have seen is what we probably saw the first 180 00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:02,040 Speaker 7: phase of an April, is that the Israelis are trying 181 00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:05,360 Speaker 7: to perhaps draw the US into a direct confrontation with 182 00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:11,440 Speaker 7: there are which I think there's something very concerning and 183 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 7: something that the Iranians will probably quite key not to 184 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:16,320 Speaker 7: be drawn into that trap. 185 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:19,679 Speaker 3: Yeah, but it's certainly on the table, isn't it. Thank 186 00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:22,959 Speaker 3: you very much for analysis, Doctor Leon Goldsmith, Otago University, 187 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 3: Senior lecturer for Middle Eastern and Comparative Politics with US 188 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:28,959 Speaker 3: there saying that that cease fire pretty much off the 189 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:32,520 Speaker 3: table after this assassination. And don't forget that we have 190 00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 3: skin in the game here too. We've got to defense 191 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:40,000 Speaker 3: force members deployed to protect that maritime a route i 192 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 3: should say, from the in the Red Sea from the 193 00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:46,720 Speaker 3: Hooti rebels. Just gone nineteen after five, we're looking at 194 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:47,440 Speaker 3: building consents. 195 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:50,079 Speaker 4: Next the news you need this morning and the in 196 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:54,079 Speaker 4: depth analysis early edition with Ryan Bridge and Swift City, 197 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:57,880 Speaker 4: New Zealand's furniture beds and a playing store. News talks'd be. 198 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:01,400 Speaker 3: Twenty one after five. The number of new build consents 199 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:03,360 Speaker 3: issued in the year to journe has dropped to a 200 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 3: five year low. Stats and Z data shows just over 201 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 3: fourteen thousand standalone houses we're consented, that's down nineteen percent, 202 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:14,640 Speaker 3: and there was an even larger drop in multi unit buildings, 203 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:18,320 Speaker 3: with just over eighteen thousand approved. That's down twenty eight percent. 204 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:22,120 Speaker 3: Joining me in our Construction Industry Council Chief Executive sorry 205 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:24,679 Speaker 3: executive director, Tommy Honey, Hey, Tommy. 206 00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:26,680 Speaker 8: And Marina, how are you? Yeah? 207 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:28,120 Speaker 2: Good, thank you. Good to have you on the show. 208 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 3: I just wanted to point out the apartments consents down 209 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:35,720 Speaker 3: fifty percent. Yep, yep, that's big. 210 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:39,360 Speaker 8: So oh it is. And so what we've seen is 211 00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:43,000 Speaker 8: a continuation of sort of a downward trend that really 212 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 8: started in the middle of what's about June twenty twenty two, 213 00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:51,400 Speaker 8: so two years ago, and we have been like a 214 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:53,720 Speaker 8: lot of people waiting for that kind of to reverse 215 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:55,880 Speaker 8: or at least plant. Oh, but it seems like we're 216 00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 8: still heading downwards. The thing about apartments is that for 217 00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:03,720 Speaker 8: the of the builders developed US investors and those is 218 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:05,840 Speaker 8: that they're quite a risk. And when you've got inflation 219 00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:08,320 Speaker 8: running as high as it has been and that's starting 220 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:11,920 Speaker 8: to turn the corner, but the Reserve Bank is not. 221 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:17,440 Speaker 8: Actually they haven't turned the corner yet, and there's a 222 00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 8: bit of a lag there was all. There's always a 223 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:24,839 Speaker 8: lag when when the mortgage rates and interest rates so 224 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:28,360 Speaker 8: very slow to respond. So I still think we're three 225 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:31,160 Speaker 8: six nine months away from any really great health. Coming 226 00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:33,000 Speaker 8: back to the back to the sector. 227 00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:36,920 Speaker 3: Who is building? I mean, obviously some houses are getting built. 228 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 3: Who is building them? 229 00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:41,439 Speaker 8: Well, I think I think the people who've got the 230 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 8: winders all to do that, because you've got to think 231 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:46,440 Speaker 8: also the whole real estate state market of flat So 232 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:48,640 Speaker 8: you're going to go building. Yeah, if you've got a 233 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:50,319 Speaker 8: house you live in and you want to build a 234 00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:53,480 Speaker 8: new one, sell the first one. Yeah, not a guarantee 235 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 8: that that's going to this is the right time to 236 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:57,480 Speaker 8: be doing that, unless you're just looking a little bit 237 00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:00,240 Speaker 8: further into the future. One of the big sort of 238 00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:02,640 Speaker 8: handbrakes on the whole system is that one of our 239 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:07,200 Speaker 8: biggest builders or the biggest clients really has recently in 240 00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:09,959 Speaker 8: recent year has been the government through coying or order. 241 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 8: And because they put a pause on that, everyone that 242 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 8: works for them, which is builders, and because the government 243 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 8: itself is a builder, they have developers who have trades, 244 00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:23,400 Speaker 8: people in sub trades, and that whole part of the 245 00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 8: sector has taken a real hit because the number of 246 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 8: houses that coying Aura has been consenting getting built in 247 00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:32,880 Speaker 8: recent years has been around about ten to fifteen percent 248 00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:35,800 Speaker 8: of all the houses. So the old that nineteen percent drop, 249 00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:38,960 Speaker 8: a good portion of that is actually due to coying 250 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:41,840 Speaker 8: or and not building starting any new project. They're finishing 251 00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:44,200 Speaker 8: off a few projects, but they put pause and a whole. 252 00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:46,320 Speaker 2: Lot and that a perfect storm. 253 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:50,360 Speaker 8: Oh yeah, it's confidence right through all the way. And 254 00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 8: this whole a whole set depends on confidence and certainty, 255 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:58,640 Speaker 8: and there's so much uncertainty around with what the government's doing. 256 00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:01,640 Speaker 8: We know they plans, we want to see them happen 257 00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 8: a lot quicker the economy, who are interest rates? And 258 00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:07,800 Speaker 8: then everyone who wants to spend the money sitting back 259 00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:10,080 Speaker 8: and saying, oh, we'll just wait. So where Yeah, perfect 260 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:11,720 Speaker 8: storms or the right way to describe it. 261 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:14,000 Speaker 3: Tommy, thanks so much of your time. That's Tommy Honey. 262 00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:18,520 Speaker 3: He's the executive director at the Construction Industry Council.

What happened yesterday in Poka Cooe I 269 00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:38,800 Speaker 3: will tell you about in a second. It's quite it's 270 00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:41,600 Speaker 3: not the biggest story of the day, but I think 271 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 3: it underscores a few big problems that we've got at 272 00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:45,200 Speaker 3: the moment. 273 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:50,000 Speaker 4: Separating the fact from the section Kid's Billy Edition with 274 00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:54,080 Speaker 4: Smith City, New Zealand's Furniture Beds and Applied Store News 275 00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:55,520 Speaker 4: Talk ZBI, this is. 276 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:57,680 Speaker 3: Not the most important story that you will hear today, 277 00:14:57,960 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 3: but it grinds my gears. 278 00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:02,800 Speaker 2: It's a small, seemingly. 279 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:04,960 Speaker 3: Insignificant event, but I think it speaks to two things 280 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 3: that I absolutely hate about the world that we live 281 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:09,760 Speaker 3: in right now. It took place at Cinema three and 282 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 3: pook A Color. You might have seen the video on 283 00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 3: the Herald website if you haven't gone to check it out. 284 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 3: So it's two women and a child going to the movies. 285 00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 3: They sneak food into the movies, which I know is 286 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 3: not the biggest thing happening in the world right now. 287 00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:25,440 Speaker 3: We've all done it too, haven't we. Probably we've hidden 288 00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:29,680 Speaker 3: that food. These guys, these entitled prats, yes, let's just 289 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 3: call them what they are. They had food, they had drink, 290 00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:37,000 Speaker 3: they had snacks, they had hot food. They snuck hot 291 00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 3: food into the cinema. I mean, that's brazen. And the cinema. 292 00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:44,560 Speaker 3: The guy's working at the cinema goes over them and says, oh, 293 00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:46,800 Speaker 3: you know, can you please You're not allowed to bring 294 00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:50,160 Speaker 3: your own food in. These guys just are having none 295 00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:52,680 Speaker 3: of it. First of all, that the guy that comes 296 00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:55,720 Speaker 3: over has an Asian accent. They mock him for his race. 297 00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:59,240 Speaker 3: They sit there and they start berating him. 298 00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:02,000 Speaker 2: Oh you've made my daughter cry. You've made my daughter cry. 299 00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:04,560 Speaker 3: You shouldn't be letting, you know, get out of my way. 300 00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 3: It's his cinema. The police came and had to escort 301 00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:12,280 Speaker 3: them out for goodness sakes. They refused to move, They 302 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:14,720 Speaker 3: demanded refunds, They carried on eating. 303 00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:15,720 Speaker 2: They said I wish. 304 00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:17,680 Speaker 3: I had my vape here, I'd start vaping and things 305 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:20,800 Speaker 3: like that. The staff said they felt unsafe. They had 306 00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 3: to turn the movie off. So whoever was in the 307 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 3: movie missed out. 308 00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:25,480 Speaker 2: People. 309 00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:30,240 Speaker 3: Cinema has rules. It's clearly signposted apparently five times throughout 310 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 3: the cinema complex that you cannot bring your own food. 311 00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:35,120 Speaker 3: And so my feelings one, if you can't go on 312 00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 3: our forty without eating, you probably should. Two, this is 313 00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:43,640 Speaker 3: a wider issue. It's about people not respecting rules. It's 314 00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:47,320 Speaker 3: not your property. Businesses need to make money otherwise they 315 00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:49,800 Speaker 3: go out of business and people lose their jobs. And 316 00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:54,320 Speaker 3: number three, and this is the most egregious breach for me. 317 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:57,760 Speaker 3: They posted it all to TikTok. Just the audacity to 318 00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:01,120 Speaker 3: film all of that break the poor person working there 319 00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:05,440 Speaker 3: and then put it all on TikTok. It's shameless, and 320 00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:07,159 Speaker 3: that is what's wrong with us today. I think we 321 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:10,320 Speaker 3: have no shame anymore. You steal something, Oh it's a 322 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:14,320 Speaker 3: cost of living crisis. You know, you do something terrible. 323 00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 3: It's my mental health.

Is it in the coming days 504 00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:56,119 Speaker 3: or will it be in the coming weeks. 505 00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:58,560 Speaker 14: It's in the coming day, So the race for running 506 00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:01,720 Speaker 14: mate is nearing a conclude. According to the Harris campaign, 507 00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:04,879 Speaker 14: they've revealed that the presidential candidate's going to hold her 508 00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:09,120 Speaker 14: first rally alongside her VP pick next Tuesday local time, 509 00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:11,439 Speaker 14: so Wednesday morning in New Zealand, and it's going to 510 00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:14,879 Speaker 14: be in Philadelphia. Now, there's some top contenders in this 511 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:19,679 Speaker 14: race still, the Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro, Arizona Senator Mark Kelly, 512 00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:23,440 Speaker 14: a governor from Minnesota, and the Secretary of Transportation beat 513 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:26,919 Speaker 14: Pete Boodages. Now, this rally is taking place in Pennsylvania, 514 00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:29,760 Speaker 14: but the campaign says, don't buy into that. It doesn't 515 00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:32,480 Speaker 14: mean it's going to be Josh Shapiro the governor. They 516 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:35,760 Speaker 14: insist no campaign decision has been made. And just while 517 00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:37,840 Speaker 14: I'm with you, Bridgie, there's new polling that's just come 518 00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:40,639 Speaker 14: out in the last few hours for Kamala Harris that 519 00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:44,160 Speaker 14: shows she has erased Donald Trump's lead and the number 520 00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:47,200 Speaker 14: of swing states. So now she's winning in Michigan, Nevada, 521 00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:51,760 Speaker 14: Arizona and Wisconsin and Pennsylvania. North Carolina is still Trump 522 00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:54,440 Speaker 14: and they're tired in Georgia. So this is a big 523 00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:55,639 Speaker 14: comeback from the Democrats. 524 00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:59,240 Speaker 3: It is a massive comeback, although you could argue still 525 00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:02,720 Speaker 3: a honeymoon fit for her. And when I was looking Mitch, 526 00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:04,760 Speaker 3: as I'm sure you have been two at the biggest 527 00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:07,840 Speaker 3: issues that voters are voting on. Number one is the economy. 528 00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:11,640 Speaker 3: You'd have to say that would be Trump's number two, immigration, 529 00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:15,280 Speaker 3: Trump's number three abortion is hers. But on those big issues, 530 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:17,879 Speaker 3: he's got the edge over her, doesn't he. 531 00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:18,840 Speaker 2: Yes. 532 00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:22,439 Speaker 14: Well, they've been attacking the Biden administration over immigration for 533 00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:23,080 Speaker 14: a very. 534 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:23,680 Speaker 2: Long time now. 535 00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:27,119 Speaker 14: Around ten million immigrants have come into this country reportedly 536 00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:30,680 Speaker 14: illegally in the last three or so years. They are 537 00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:33,920 Speaker 14: accusing her of being Joe Biden's border czar, the person 538 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:36,840 Speaker 14: that has really overseeing this for the administration. So they'll 539 00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:39,000 Speaker 14: put new videos out in the last forty eight hours 540 00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:42,160 Speaker 14: accusing her of being the reason there are so many 541 00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:44,520 Speaker 14: illegal immigrants in this country. So I think that's something 542 00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:46,439 Speaker 14: we're likely to see in the coming months and in 543 00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:48,479 Speaker 14: any debate if that actually happens. 544 00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:49,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, Mitch, thank you. 545 00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:53,600 Speaker 3: That is Mitch McCann with US Stateside, just gone eleven 546 00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:56,280 Speaker 3: minutes away from six. We actually have the audio of 547 00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:58,760 Speaker 3: that first attack ad from the Trump campaign. Will play 548 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:03,000 Speaker 3: it to you shortly, Bryan Bridge right now. And a 549 00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:06,440 Speaker 3: throwback to DHBs Health, New Zealand has appointed four new 550 00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:11,040 Speaker 3: regional directors aimed at bringing decision making back to the 551 00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:13,720 Speaker 3: local level. It comes just a week after the board 552 00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:16,760 Speaker 3: was sacked and replaced with a commissioner. The Association of 553 00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:20,600 Speaker 3: Salaried Medical Specialists executive director Sarah Dalton's with me now. Sarah, 554 00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:26,880 Speaker 3: good morning, Good to have you on the program. First 555 00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:29,760 Speaker 3: of all, does this seem counterintuitive to you? At one 556 00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:32,800 Speaker 3: level we've got, oh, it's too much to bureaucracy, and 557 00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 3: now we're appointing four more managers. 558 00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:40,680 Speaker 6: I don't know, Ryan, We've already got regional directors in place, 559 00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 6: they've been there for a while. These new regional directors 560 00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:47,600 Speaker 6: who will replace them have got a different set of 561 00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:52,920 Speaker 6: responsibilities and delegations, including I think bringing oversight of commissioning 562 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:58,320 Speaker 6: or parts of the funded health sector back under their oversight. 563 00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:04,080 Speaker 6: I don't know. For our members, you know who are 564 00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:08,640 Speaker 6: working in hospitals at the front line The biggest challenge 565 00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:12,840 Speaker 6: I think is workforce and staffing levels, and you know, 566 00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:16,240 Speaker 6: their lack of colleagues, and so there's been a lot 567 00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:20,080 Speaker 6: of rhetoric from the government and from the new Commissioner 568 00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:22,600 Speaker 6: lest the Llevy that there is enough money, there won't 569 00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:24,840 Speaker 6: be any more money, and that they can make do 570 00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:28,040 Speaker 6: with what they've got, and that does not feel great 571 00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:31,600 Speaker 6: from where we're sitting in terms of whether there are 572 00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:36,080 Speaker 6: enough doctors out there to get the work done safely 573 00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:37,520 Speaker 6: in an untimely manner. 574 00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:45,680 Speaker 3: You're representing senior salary doctors and dentists and things like that. 575 00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:49,320 Speaker 3: Have you noticed have your members noticed are changed in 576 00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:51,840 Speaker 3: frontline staff, because that was the theory we would get 577 00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:53,920 Speaker 3: rid of some back office and we would feel it 578 00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:56,600 Speaker 3: more in the front. We would have more people at 579 00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:57,040 Speaker 3: the front. 580 00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:57,800 Speaker 2: Do we. 581 00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:01,000 Speaker 7: No. 582 00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:05,760 Speaker 6: I've just been traveling around the country talking directly with 583 00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:09,360 Speaker 6: members because we're going back into collective bargaining in a 584 00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:13,120 Speaker 6: month or so to talk about their core terms and conditions, 585 00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:20,760 Speaker 6: and they are they're desperate for more colleagues. So you know, 586 00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:25,720 Speaker 6: if less Levy and the new regional directors can show 587 00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:29,240 Speaker 6: us datus about where all these doctors are supposed to be. 588 00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:32,520 Speaker 6: We would love to see it because what we see 589 00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:36,040 Speaker 6: as people who are very stressed, who are working really hard, 590 00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:41,040 Speaker 6: and who are really concerned about their inability to give 591 00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:43,160 Speaker 6: the level of care to people who need it in 592 00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:47,400 Speaker 6: a timely fashion. So things are very difficult out there, 593 00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:51,960 Speaker 6: and so we don't have oversight as to the where 594 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:55,080 Speaker 6: the money exactly is going in terms of these budget provisions. 595 00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:57,960 Speaker 6: But from the information I have seen, you know, a 596 00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:01,000 Speaker 6: lot of it is about paying people what they're worth. 597 00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:03,200 Speaker 6: You know, there's been a little it almost feels like 598 00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:05,880 Speaker 6: nurses are being blamed for you know, we've recruited too 599 00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:09,840 Speaker 6: many nurses too quickly. But that is a really weird 600 00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:13,840 Speaker 6: thing to say, because there are still significant gaps out there. 601 00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:17,840 Speaker 6: The fact that Healthy Zealand's been successful recruiting nurses is 602 00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:21,920 Speaker 6: a good thing and we need to put other measures 603 00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:24,040 Speaker 6: in place about the success of their health system, not 604 00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:24,640 Speaker 6: just budget. 605 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:27,440 Speaker 3: Sarah Dalton, thank you very much for your time this morning. 606 00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:28,040 Speaker 2: Appreciate it. 607 00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:31,800 Speaker 3: The Association of Salary Medical Specialists Executive Director, Sarah Dalton. 608 00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:36,080 Speaker 3: By the way, those four new heads of the regions 609 00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:41,120 Speaker 3: Northern Mark Shephard, Katherine Cronin from Midland, Robin Shearer for 610 00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:45,400 Speaker 3: Central and Martin Keo for the entire South Island.
