1 00:00:01,480 --> 00:00:04,720 Speaker 1: The only drive show you can try to ask the question, 2 00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:09,520 Speaker 1: get the answers, find a fack and give the analysis. 3 00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:13,400 Speaker 1: Heather Duplicy Ellen, Drive with One New Zealand and the 4 00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:16,160 Speaker 1: Power of Satellite Mobile News Talks NEV. 5 00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:18,200 Speaker 2: Afternoon. 6 00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:20,560 Speaker 3: Welcome to the show coming up today. Chris Bishop on 7 00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:23,000 Speaker 3: dropping the two million new houses for Auckland. That's a 8 00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:26,000 Speaker 3: U turn. Al Gillespie on whether there really is a 9 00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:28,360 Speaker 3: ninety percent chance that the US is going to war 10 00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:32,120 Speaker 3: with Iran And do you do what's called grocery tourism. 11 00:00:32,240 --> 00:00:34,239 Speaker 3: I'm asking this Apparently a lot of people do this. 12 00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:37,120 Speaker 1: Heather Duplicy Allen, Yeah. 13 00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:38,879 Speaker 3: Well, finally Chris Bishop has done the right thing and 14 00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:41,000 Speaker 3: done the U turn on the two million new houses 15 00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:43,599 Speaker 3: that he had planned for Auckland. Now it's not altogether 16 00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:46,640 Speaker 3: a surprise that he did this and announced this this afternoon, 17 00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:48,839 Speaker 3: because this has been rumored to be coming for months. 18 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:52,560 Speaker 3: Because of the obvious problem, which is that it's election year. 19 00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:56,520 Speaker 3: Auckland is a key battleground. Aucklands are obsessed with houses. 20 00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:59,360 Speaker 3: Auckland voters who own their houses are already stressed out 21 00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:01,840 Speaker 3: about this plan, and if it turned into an election 22 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:05,320 Speaker 3: issue and got proper media coverage, more would have become 23 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:07,640 Speaker 3: stressed out, and that would mean that Blue Auckland voters 24 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:10,120 Speaker 3: would go straight to New Zealand First Act and Labor. 25 00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:12,319 Speaker 3: So it was a problem for National so Bishop had 26 00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:15,399 Speaker 3: to back down. But in reality, it's not just politics, 27 00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 3: is it. It's actually reality too. I mean, I think 28 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:20,520 Speaker 3: it is fair that an Aucklander who has sunk one 29 00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:23,160 Speaker 3: to two million dollars, maybe more, maybe slightly less, but 30 00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:25,640 Speaker 3: it's a lot of money. An Aucklander who sunk that 31 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,200 Speaker 3: much money into their home, it is fair for them 32 00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:30,040 Speaker 3: to be stressed out at the thought of a multi 33 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:32,679 Speaker 3: story apartment popping up next to your next door, blocking 34 00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:36,880 Speaker 3: the view, blocking the light, ruining the privacy whatever. We 35 00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:39,399 Speaker 3: mock these people as nimbi's, but actually I think it 36 00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:42,040 Speaker 3: is fair for them to want to protect the place 37 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 3: that they live in. Don't you want to protect the 38 00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:47,120 Speaker 3: place you live in. This battle, though, is far from one. 39 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:49,720 Speaker 3: So anybody looking at this and thinking that was a 40 00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 3: close call, thank god that's over, it's not. All Bishop 41 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 3: has done is to reduce the number of new houses 42 00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 3: to the point that it shouldn't impact on suburbs. But 43 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:02,000 Speaker 3: whether it does impact on suburbs is a decision for 44 00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:05,000 Speaker 3: Auckland Council and that is a decision yet to be taken. 45 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 3: So while it should on balance be okay until the 46 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:11,680 Speaker 3: Auckland maps are seen, it is not a certainty. So 47 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:13,679 Speaker 3: what this is is one you turned down and one 48 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 3: more to go. 49 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:16,280 Speaker 1: Ever, dup c Ellen. 50 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:20,840 Speaker 3: Nineteen nine two is the text number. Standard text fees 51 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 3: apply and of course, as I said, we'll speak to 52 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:25,560 Speaker 3: christ Bishop after five o'clock. Now, the government is going 53 00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 3: to make it easier for community clubs to serve booze 54 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 3: at president. At present, a lot of sports clubs, working 55 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:34,639 Speaker 3: men's clubs RSAs sell liquor through a club license which 56 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:36,920 Speaker 3: is a lot more restrictive than the standard on license. 57 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,880 Speaker 3: Now Associate Justice Minister Nicole McKee says she's going to 58 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:41,639 Speaker 3: change that. She's going to allow the clubs to apply 59 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 3: for a non license. Lucy Waters is Chief Executive of 60 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 3: Clubs NZ and with us now, Hi Lucy, hello, how 61 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:49,840 Speaker 3: are you? And well thank you? What's wrong with the 62 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:50,640 Speaker 3: current license? 63 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 4: The current license for a club license, it only allows 64 00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 4: clubs to sell or supply alcohol to their members, guests 65 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:06,400 Speaker 4: of members or affiliated members. So members from a club 66 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:10,799 Speaker 4: where they've gotten a reciprocal arrangement in place. And what 67 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 4: we find is that most people just don't realize that 68 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:20,160 Speaker 4: these restrictions exist. And he might have someone that decides 69 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 4: to pop into their local club, support a community event, 70 00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:26,520 Speaker 4: see what it's all about, only to discover that they 71 00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 4: actually can't be served because they're not a member. 72 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 3: How long have these rules been in place? 73 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 5: Forever? 74 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 3: But well before my time. I have never been a 75 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 3: member of an RSA, and yet I've had a number 76 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 3: of drinks and a number of rsays. So how's that worked? 77 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 4: That is a good question, because under the settings, they 78 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 4: should only be serving alcohol to the members guests of members. 79 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 3: Well, is it possible that I have come in as 80 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 3: a guest of a member? Very possible. 81 00:03:57,680 --> 00:03:59,880 Speaker 4: So if you've ever gone into a club and you've 82 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:02,839 Speaker 4: and with someone else and you've been signed. 83 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 3: In, then that that would be That would be fine? Okay, 84 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 3: I see Now, why is it that clubs have had 85 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 3: to have these licenses rather than on licenses. 86 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 4: They are prevented under the current Sale and Supply of 87 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 4: alcohol from holding. 88 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 3: An online Why why? Lucy? That is a good question. 89 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:24,359 Speaker 3: Isn't life in this country full of very good questions? 90 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:25,840 Speaker 3: About the stupid rules that we have. 91 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,599 Speaker 4: It absolutely is so that that's one of the questions 92 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 4: we've been asking. 93 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 3: Okay, so once this rule changes, does that mean that 94 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 3: you will be able to go into, for example, the 95 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:41,360 Speaker 3: fishing club in tai Rua and have a drink if 96 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 3: you're not a member or not a guest of a member. 97 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,040 Speaker 4: If they choose to. So, if this all goes through, 98 00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:51,919 Speaker 4: the clubs will have a choice over whether they retain 99 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:55,159 Speaker 4: their club license or whether they move to an nonlicense. 100 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:58,160 Speaker 4: So if they move to an unlicense, then they'll be 101 00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:01,599 Speaker 4: able to open the doors and in the public will 102 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 4: be able to begin enjoying the club. 103 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 3: I mean, we might actually decide at the fishing club 104 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:07,600 Speaker 3: in Tairou that we don't want everybody coming in so 105 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 3: much keep the rules, but does it exactly Lucy, is 106 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:14,280 Speaker 3: this potentially part of the problem with arisays and why 107 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:14,800 Speaker 3: they're dying. 108 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 4: We we do think that, and this is an issue 109 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:24,240 Speaker 4: that we've raised, is that that quite often if someone's 110 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:26,840 Speaker 4: new to an risa, they're wanting to come in and 111 00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 4: experience it, they come into this. 112 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:32,920 Speaker 3: List of rules that they need to comply with. 113 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:35,720 Speaker 4: So if we can start removing some of those barriers, 114 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:39,600 Speaker 4: open the doors up. Then then we feel that that 115 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 4: the Arisays and our other clubs will be able to 116 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:48,360 Speaker 4: look at their options and start modernizing and becoming community facilities. 117 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,280 Speaker 3: He is hoping. Lucy, thank you very much. Appreciate appreciate it. 118 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,720 Speaker 3: That's Lucy Water. It's Club's New Zealand chief executive. 119 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:54,840 Speaker 2: Have you got it? Ends? Have you got it? 120 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:58,920 Speaker 1: That sounds like a stupid rule. 121 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 3: That's right, countries full of them. Hey, guess who popped 122 00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 3: up at Chris Bishop's press conference this afternoon to heckle him? 123 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 3: Old mate Karl Mukaraka.

Then 132 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:31,160 Speaker 3: the other thing he did was he grew himself a mustache, 133 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 3: do you remember?

They've got that very rare left hand break, 223 00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 6: which is what World Surf were after. It's very consistent. 224 00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:45,200 Speaker 6: I remember the big crew came out probably twenty years 225 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 6: ago now for I think called the Vodafone Surf Sessions. 226 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:51,840 Speaker 6: It was a pha in the first day.

No membership, 278 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:01,319 Speaker 3: just a good place to sink pint. Here that my 279 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 3: husband and I went into a club for a meal, 280 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:05,319 Speaker 3: we had to buy a one excuse me, one week 281 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:07,520 Speaker 3: membership to be able to buy a drink. It's ridiculous. 282 00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 3: I agree, it's ridiculous, stupid rules just because but there 283 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:13,240 Speaker 3: would have been Remember there would have been a time 284 00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:16,600 Speaker 3: where somebody made this rule and went, this is really important, 285 00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:19,000 Speaker 3: and the whole country went, it's very important. We have 286 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:21,959 Speaker 3: to have these different rules, absolutely so important and here 287 00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:24,520 Speaker 3: and it would have been fifty years ago, sixty years 288 00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:26,360 Speaker 3: ago the rules. And now look we're having to unwind 289 00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:31,480 Speaker 3: some dumb rule that somebody made. Now, okay, apparently there 290 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 3: is a ninety percent chance that the US is going 291 00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:35,400 Speaker 3: to go to war with the run And I mean 292 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:38,200 Speaker 3: you know that hearing this is according to an insiders 293 00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:41,920 Speaker 3: who's briefed confident, you know, on the background, and doesn't 294 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:43,599 Speaker 3: want to be named for briefing on this one, and 295 00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 3: you'd have to say, well, it does. It does stand 296 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 3: to reason. That would explain why there's this massive military 297 00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 3: build up in the area at the moment, with air traveler, 298 00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 3: air and naval assets being built up in the Middle 299 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:56,079 Speaker 3: East by the US. We're going and apparently now being 300 00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:58,520 Speaker 3: reported as well by CNN that they may strike as 301 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:00,719 Speaker 3: early as the weekend. We'll talk to Algers Lesbie about that. 302 00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:02,720 Speaker 3: He's going to run as through at after five o'clock. 303 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:05,199 Speaker 3: I have to ask you a question, because this is 304 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:07,760 Speaker 3: something we're covering off over five after five o'clock. Do 305 00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:12,839 Speaker 3: you believe this? Okay? Because I'm apparently apparently there is 306 00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:16,839 Speaker 3: a thing called grocery tourism and it is taking off. 307 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 3: It is it's a phenomenon that is the standout travel 308 00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:23,360 Speaker 3: trend they say for twenty twenty six. And this is 309 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:26,400 Speaker 3: according to a new research by the hotel giant Hilton. 310 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 3: And apparently what we're doing is we're going overseas and 311 00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:33,680 Speaker 3: we are not only are we sort of incidentally going 312 00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:35,800 Speaker 3: to the supermarket and then you know, going oh and 313 00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 3: making that part of that. We are planning a trip 314 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:41,120 Speaker 3: to the supermarket as part of our plan. So obviously 315 00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:42,720 Speaker 3: when the lads told me, they say, look, we're going 316 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:45,880 Speaker 3: to talk to Hilton today because you know this, I went, well, 317 00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:49,440 Speaker 3: that's bs, isn't it. Nobody does that. Literally, everyone in 318 00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:52,360 Speaker 3: my team goes to a supermarket when they are on 319 00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:54,920 Speaker 3: holiday and actually plans it as part of it.

It's 492 00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:01,480 Speaker 9: a site that boasts of having strong contacts with Sydney criminals. 493 00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:04,080 Speaker 9: So it's look, it's a it's a hell of a mess. 494 00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:06,400 Speaker 9: The police have set up a task force here. They've 495 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:10,640 Speaker 9: already got an organized crime task force called Raptor. They've 496 00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:12,920 Speaker 9: set up a special one to look at this coconut 497 00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:18,120 Speaker 9: cartel and any involvement there of Isaiah Utah. Dad's still 498 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:18,680 Speaker 9: in hospital. 499 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:22,440 Speaker 3: The world is crazy, Murray, thank you for that, appreciated Murray. 500 00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:24,560 Speaker 3: Old's Australia corresponding, you can't even if you don't, if 501 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:26,440 Speaker 3: you don't roll in that kind of a world, which 502 00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:28,720 Speaker 3: none of us do. Can't of imagine that people would 503 00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:32,480 Speaker 3: want to film themselves shooting other people. It's completely bonkers. Okay, 504 00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:34,760 Speaker 3: here's a poll for you. It's another Pole freshwater strategy 505 00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:37,119 Speaker 3: poll from the Post, mainly the same as all the 506 00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:39,480 Speaker 3: other poles. A couple of differences worth noting. Okay, this 507 00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:46,200 Speaker 3: one puts Labor very high thirty seven, playing Nationals thirty. 508 00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:48,720 Speaker 3: So Labour's on thirty seven. National is on thirty. New 509 00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:51,200 Speaker 3: Zealand First is on eleven, the Greens are on ten, 510 00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:53,399 Speaker 3: the ACT parties on sex, the Mario Party I was 511 00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:55,720 Speaker 3: on two. So Apart from the fact that Labor is 512 00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:57,719 Speaker 3: very high, the other thing that I think is interesting 513 00:24:57,760 --> 00:24:59,960 Speaker 3: in this is that New Zealand First Yes can take 514 00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:02,720 Speaker 3: use its strong climb up, so it's sitting on double 515 00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:05,600 Speaker 3: digits at eleven, but ACT is down sitting on six. 516 00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:07,920 Speaker 3: Now what that suggests is that New Zealand verst is 517 00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:11,200 Speaker 3: directly stealing votes from ACT and that's no surprise to anyone. 518 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,080 Speaker 3: The problem for National is they haven't moved since mid 519 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:16,560 Speaker 3: last year, so thirty seems to be where they're digging 520 00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:19,440 Speaker 3: in at the moment, while Labor is climbing. Preferred Prime 521 00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:23,520 Speaker 3: Minister polling Hipkins on forty six, Luxan on thirty four, 522 00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:25,320 Speaker 3: Barrie Soapers with US next quarter. 523 00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:28,680 Speaker 1: To politics with centrics credit, check your customers and get 524 00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:30,000 Speaker 1: payments certainty. 525 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:33,359 Speaker 3: Heather, I love going to foreign supermarkets. Lamana Italian Supermarket 526 00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:35,800 Speaker 3: in Melbourne is like Disneyland. Disneyland to me it has 527 00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:38,600 Speaker 3: a terram Asuba. I withdraw and apologize I was wrong. 528 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:42,000 Speaker 3: Grocery tourism is a thing twelve away from five and 529 00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:44,080 Speaker 3: Barries Soaper, Senior Political Correspondence with US. 530 00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:45,439 Speaker 6: Hallo, Barry, good afternoon. 531 00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:45,680 Speaker 17: Hither. 532 00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:48,639 Speaker 10: I've got to say I've been to many supermarkets overseas, 533 00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:52,600 Speaker 10: normally trailing after a prime minister looking for New Zealand products. 534 00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:54,760 Speaker 3: This is they love it. I got a text from 535 00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:57,359 Speaker 3: somebody who was like Jerry Brownlee when he gets as 536 00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:00,159 Speaker 3: god as itinerary would always make sure that he is 537 00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:02,639 Speaker 3: going to supermartans for that reason. Right, they go and 538 00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:05,639 Speaker 3: they make sure we got the mainland shadda there. But 539 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:07,280 Speaker 3: that's a good reason to go. I mean, just having 540 00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:08,760 Speaker 3: a look at the terror as Sue is probably not. 541 00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:12,840 Speaker 3: But whatever each their own. Now the Peter Winston, Peter's 542 00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:14,399 Speaker 3: racism has come up again today, has it? 543 00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:18,760 Speaker 10: Well, has alleged racism. Let's say he seemed to suggest 544 00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:24,040 Speaker 10: yesterday that Minister Scott Simpson shouldn't be answering a question 545 00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:27,920 Speaker 10: from an MP because he came from Rara Tongua. Now 546 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:32,680 Speaker 10: Peter's obviously was out of sem I think he cocked 547 00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:38,240 Speaker 10: up the question basically, and he was taking an exception 548 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:41,240 Speaker 10: to the fact that the Green MP as they'll want 549 00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:44,639 Speaker 10: to to use the term art here are rather than 550 00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:48,120 Speaker 10: New Zealand and Winston. That's he's been on that common theme. 551 00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:50,919 Speaker 3: It is a common thing from him for ye. 552 00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 10: But of course he was accused of racism by Chris Hopkins. 553 00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 10: But the most outraged MP in the House today because 554 00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:04,880 Speaker 10: Hipkins wasn't there was Labors Willie Jackson, who frequently uses 555 00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:07,720 Speaker 10: the word racism to describe people here. 556 00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:09,720 Speaker 18: He is what we heard yesterday was one of the 557 00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:11,720 Speaker 18: worst things I think we've ever heard in the house. 558 00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:16,600 Speaker 18: And I'm sorry and I take hang on, no, mister speaker. 559 00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:19,760 Speaker 7: They can laugh on the other side just a moment, But. 560 00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:23,600 Speaker 18: Mister speaker, I take personal offense at what the minister 561 00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:26,159 Speaker 18: has said, and I asked that he'd be asked to 562 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:27,920 Speaker 18: withdraw and apologize. 563 00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:30,160 Speaker 7: On what basis do you take that offense and why 564 00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:31,240 Speaker 7: didn't you do that? Yesterday. 565 00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:33,919 Speaker 18: I think yesterday so many of us were in shop 566 00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:38,720 Speaker 18: at at that at the at what mister Peter said. 567 00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:41,879 Speaker 17: To speaker, if Willie Jackson would like to start retrospectively 568 00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:44,399 Speaker 17: apologizing for racist things, he said, then he should fill 569 00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:44,919 Speaker 17: his boots. 570 00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:47,840 Speaker 19: What I simply made the point is that mister Jackson 571 00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:51,160 Speaker 19: in the honor Willie Jackson in his offering to the house, 572 00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:53,840 Speaker 19: and they said that he was I think he said 573 00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:57,359 Speaker 19: deeply personally offended, and I suggest if that's how he 574 00:27:57,359 --> 00:27:58,879 Speaker 19: felt at the time, he should have mentioned it. It's 575 00:27:58,920 --> 00:27:59,879 Speaker 19: not unreasonable for me to do. 576 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:00,840 Speaker 15: Point of. 577 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:02,760 Speaker 6: Speak. 578 00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:06,560 Speaker 18: I'm still personally offended. They you sit down, Seymour, Yeah, 579 00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:07,400 Speaker 18: let's stay now. 580 00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:10,760 Speaker 8: It's Willy. 581 00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:13,800 Speaker 10: He stopped short of pointing when he did point his 582 00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:17,760 Speaker 10: finger at David Seymour. That didn't use the word when 583 00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:20,080 Speaker 10: it related to him, But I'm sure he has done 584 00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:23,200 Speaker 10: in the past. And you know, remember he questioned the 585 00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:26,480 Speaker 10: the mildiness of Paul Bennett once. 586 00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:27,440 Speaker 6: That was just once. 587 00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:32,240 Speaker 10: There are so many instances of Willie Jackson being called 588 00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:34,040 Speaker 10: out for using the word race. 589 00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:35,840 Speaker 3: Tell me if I'm wrong. But I saw this pop 590 00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:38,720 Speaker 3: up yesterday and I thought this is so boring. I 591 00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:42,360 Speaker 3: am not interested in this. It's yet another minor little 592 00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:44,360 Speaker 3: scuffle that we're going to call racism when it really 593 00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:46,680 Speaker 3: isn't and I feel like the public actually deserves better. 594 00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:49,920 Speaker 6: Well, it was the hypocrisy today that I no, I mean, 595 00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:50,720 Speaker 6: not not from you. 596 00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:51,680 Speaker 2: You. 597 00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:53,000 Speaker 3: I think it's fair from you. I just think it's 598 00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:54,760 Speaker 3: from these guys trying to turn this into a thing. 599 00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:57,520 Speaker 3: It's not a thing anyway, but now I'm going to 600 00:28:57,560 --> 00:28:58,880 Speaker 3: turn it into a thing and maybe take it to 601 00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:02,040 Speaker 3: the huddle. Thank you, erre right. Green's on the roads 602 00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:03,000 Speaker 3: of national significance. 603 00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 10: Yes, well, the government's roads of national significance, of course, 604 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:10,440 Speaker 10: and the money being dedicated to them was in the 605 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:13,920 Speaker 10: Greens firing line today, and of course leading the charge 606 00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:20,040 Speaker 10: was the former Minister of Transport, Julianne Genta. And you know, 607 00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:22,320 Speaker 10: I hadn't seen her around for a while asking questions, 608 00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:25,000 Speaker 10: but there she was. But her line of questioning till 609 00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:29,560 Speaker 10: Nikola Willis was interrupted by none other than the aforementioned 610 00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:34,880 Speaker 10: Winston Peters, who won fairly one praise from the Finance Minister. 611 00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:37,800 Speaker 2: Had she seen the full business case for a second 612 00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:41,520 Speaker 2: Mount Victoria tunnel before campaigning for it and committing to 613 00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:42,920 Speaker 2: it as a priority project. 614 00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:45,200 Speaker 20: I have found that that investment case stacks up. 615 00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:47,479 Speaker 8: Thread of question the right on at Winston Peters. 616 00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:50,960 Speaker 21: There's the Minister consider that wild bureaucrats can conjure up 617 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:54,440 Speaker 21: positive benefit cost ratios for many ideas when faced with 618 00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:57,800 Speaker 21: limited finances, and a pragmatic person would choose to fix 619 00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:02,320 Speaker 21: pipes over building's new se Michael lanes ah. 620 00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:06,680 Speaker 20: Well, mister speaker of only the former Wellington City Council 621 00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:09,040 Speaker 20: had had the full sight of that, Minister. 622 00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:12,400 Speaker 21: Does the Minister consider contract courageous to carry on with 623 00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 21: a four billion cost blowout in a simple fairy and 624 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:18,720 Speaker 21: war replacement project? Or was it courageous to stop it, 625 00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:22,840 Speaker 21: fix it and save the taxpayer two point three billion dollars? 626 00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:28,880 Speaker 20: Indeed, Minister, and I would also reflect that sometimes those 627 00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:32,240 Speaker 20: in glasshouses should not be throwing stones or sitting next 628 00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 20: to Tamitha Paul who built cycle ways instead of fixing 629 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:36,080 Speaker 20: the pipes. 630 00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:41,040 Speaker 10: Of course, Tamotha Poul was a former Wellington City councilor, 631 00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:43,120 Speaker 10: so it's probably fair to point the finger at her. 632 00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:45,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, Barry, thank you very much, appreciate it. As Barry Sober, 633 00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:49,800 Speaker 3: Senior Political Correspondent seven away from five hither the current 634 00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:52,880 Speaker 3: polling reminds me of Hillary versus Trump and Karmela versus Trump. 635 00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:54,920 Speaker 3: Pole had Hillary and Karmela head and look what happened. 636 00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:57,840 Speaker 3: Don't believe the pole's all the main street? Do you 637 00:30:57,880 --> 00:30:59,120 Speaker 3: know what I think is going on here? 638 00:30:59,200 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 1: Though? 639 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:02,440 Speaker 3: I don't have a problem believing that. I don't have 640 00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:04,320 Speaker 3: a problem believing that this is what the poles are saying, 641 00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:06,479 Speaker 3: because the Poles are consistent across most of the poles. Right, 642 00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:09,480 Speaker 3: it's roughly the same story. But I think it will 643 00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:12,120 Speaker 3: not bear out on election nine. These are two different things. 644 00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:14,240 Speaker 3: I think this is what's going on at the minute. 645 00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:17,200 Speaker 3: I do think that up or down, give a few points, whatever, 646 00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:20,200 Speaker 3: But I think when it comes to voting, no, thirty 647 00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:21,920 Speaker 3: seven percent of this country are not going to vote 648 00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:23,959 Speaker 3: for labor plus What was it that? What did I say? 649 00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:24,880 Speaker 3: Ten percent for the Greens? 650 00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:25,320 Speaker 2: Do you know why? 651 00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:28,280 Speaker 3: Because what's Labour coming at you with a capital gains tax? 652 00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:30,600 Speaker 3: What are the Greens coming at you with a wealth tax? 653 00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:31,800 Speaker 3: And then they're going to bring their mates in the 654 00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:33,720 Speaker 3: Mahdi party as well. And when we look at that 655 00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:35,800 Speaker 3: little chamozzle that just wants to tax you and we 656 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:37,640 Speaker 3: know how it went with spending last time. We're going 657 00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:39,080 Speaker 3: to look at it we and say no, no, thanks 658 00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:42,240 Speaker 3: very much and maybe rearrange things. Wee bit. But I 659 00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:45,040 Speaker 3: do think that can I say just on this Winston thing, 660 00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:46,880 Speaker 3: because I am now, I've now, I've got now, I've 661 00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:48,520 Speaker 3: got all hot under the collar about it, and I'm 662 00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:50,600 Speaker 3: going to take it to the huddle. Why I don't 663 00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:54,080 Speaker 3: care about Winston and his alleged racism is that I 664 00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:58,040 Speaker 3: still am kind of confounded that here we are going, 665 00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:01,080 Speaker 3: oh no, Winston mentioned that the Green MP comes from 666 00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:03,600 Speaker 3: Rara Tongan. He was calling New Zealand ol Tier Roha 667 00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:06,240 Speaker 3: what a racist. I can't believe that that is the 668 00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:09,480 Speaker 3: thing that we're getting worked up about. And hardly anyone's 669 00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:11,800 Speaker 3: even talking about the cultural lea that was happening last 670 00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:13,680 Speaker 3: week where we found out that there is a particular 671 00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:16,400 Speaker 3: ethnicity in this country that is apparently in the public 672 00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:19,920 Speaker 3: service able to just take unlimited leave to go like that, 673 00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:21,680 Speaker 3: to me, you want to know what racist? 674 00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:22,000 Speaker 2: That is? 675 00:32:22,320 --> 00:32:25,240 Speaker 3: Literal racism right there? Like why is nobody standing up 676 00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:28,240 Speaker 3: in Parliament going well, that's racist, we need to stop. No, Instead, 677 00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:30,520 Speaker 3: they're getting all angry at uncle Winston for some words 678 00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:34,680 Speaker 3: that he said. Anyway, Sae, that's what happens. That's what 679 00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:37,120 Speaker 3: happens when we get start talking about what will he says, Well, 680 00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:39,400 Speaker 3: he makes us very cross, doesn't he anyway, So that's 681 00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:41,160 Speaker 3: going to the huddle now as a result. But anyway, 682 00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:44,400 Speaker 3: Chris Bishop first, because that's much more important. Actually we're 683 00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:45,920 Speaker 3: going to talk to him about this U turn on 684 00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:48,800 Speaker 3: Auckland's two million new houses. Next News talks. 685 00:32:48,600 --> 00:33:01,080 Speaker 1: Their beep, depressing the newsmakers to get the real story. 686 00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:04,760 Speaker 1: It's Heather Duper Clan Drive with One New Zealand to 687 00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:08,200 Speaker 1: coverage like no one else. News Dogsvy. 688 00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:11,840 Speaker 3: Afternoon. The government's done a U turn and dropped its 689 00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:14,240 Speaker 3: plan to have up to two million new houses built 690 00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:16,560 Speaker 3: in Auckland. The number is now down to one point 691 00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:19,120 Speaker 3: six million. The Housing Ministry is Chris Bishop. High bish 692 00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:21,720 Speaker 3: good afternoon. Are you happy with this backdown? 693 00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:23,120 Speaker 15: Yeah? 694 00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:25,840 Speaker 22: I think it's a much more politically sustainable plan for Auckland, 695 00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:27,680 Speaker 22: and I think it will land quite well. And it 696 00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:29,760 Speaker 22: makes sure that growth is in the right areas, right 697 00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:33,120 Speaker 22: around city railroad stations, around Rappord Transit and the CBD. 698 00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:36,000 Speaker 22: You know, that's what most people not everyone, but most 699 00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:37,840 Speaker 22: people you know, think is where we should be building 700 00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:40,080 Speaker 22: in Auckland, and it means more around those areas and 701 00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:42,160 Speaker 22: less in the suburbs. And that means that we can 702 00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:44,360 Speaker 22: take people with us on the journey of building more 703 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:46,520 Speaker 22: housing in Auckland, which again I think most people think 704 00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:48,040 Speaker 22: we need to do. So it's going to be more 705 00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:50,080 Speaker 22: politically sustainable and to make sure that grows in the 706 00:33:50,160 --> 00:33:52,520 Speaker 22: right areas. And the fundamental point I want to make 707 00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:54,760 Speaker 22: clear to Auckland is that we've listened to them. You know, 708 00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:57,400 Speaker 22: very strong feedback coming through that the plan was a 709 00:33:57,440 --> 00:34:00,920 Speaker 22: bit unbalanced. We've made sure that we've acted blistened and 710 00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:02,280 Speaker 22: there's going to be changes. 711 00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:02,560 Speaker 1: As a result. 712 00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:05,760 Speaker 22: Why didn't you do this in the first place, Well, 713 00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:09,520 Speaker 22: Auckland Council asked us to essentially do the plan that 714 00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:12,080 Speaker 22: you know what we did, so plan change one twenty. 715 00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:15,040 Speaker 22: They said, look, we'll withdraw the plan change seventy eight, 716 00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:16,560 Speaker 22: we'll replace it with a new one. We'll meet the 717 00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:19,439 Speaker 22: same amount of housing capacity. So we said, okay, fair enough, 718 00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:22,120 Speaker 22: off you go. And the feedback coming through is that 719 00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:24,759 Speaker 22: that was the wrong outcome for Auckland. And so we've 720 00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:27,120 Speaker 22: made sure that and that's what government's for, right, that's 721 00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:29,680 Speaker 22: ultimately why we have democracy. And so we've listened and 722 00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:30,200 Speaker 22: we've acted. 723 00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:34,200 Speaker 3: So leafy suburbs, Heritage listed suburbs no longer affected. 724 00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:37,600 Speaker 22: That will be over to Auckland, but they now have 725 00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:41,600 Speaker 22: much more flexibility to make changes around those areas. You know, 726 00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:43,800 Speaker 22: the growth is going to be centered around train stations 727 00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:47,080 Speaker 22: and around the CBD and around town centers, and it'll 728 00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:49,320 Speaker 22: be over to Auckland and the council and the communities. 729 00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:51,760 Speaker 22: If they wish to take out growth out of the suburbs, 730 00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:54,440 Speaker 22: then they can do that. The strong feedback coming through 731 00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:56,239 Speaker 22: is that that's what they want to do. So they 732 00:34:56,280 --> 00:34:58,479 Speaker 22: have the ability to do that they basically didn't before. 733 00:34:58,560 --> 00:34:59,880 Speaker 22: We're making sure that they can they do. 734 00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:04,600 Speaker 3: But if I mean, if let's say that Auckland Council says, yep, 735 00:35:04,640 --> 00:35:06,840 Speaker 3: we're we're going to keep on going with density in 736 00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:08,640 Speaker 3: Mount Eden, isn't that going to blow back on you? 737 00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:11,360 Speaker 3: So surely you've sought an assurance from them that that, 738 00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:13,120 Speaker 3: in fact, the leafy suburbs are out. 739 00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:18,040 Speaker 22: We've asked the council to give us a provisional summary 740 00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:20,480 Speaker 22: of what they would do once if we legislate, so 741 00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:22,879 Speaker 22: they're going to do that in the next little while, 742 00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:24,759 Speaker 22: and you know, we want to have a look at 743 00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:26,880 Speaker 22: that as a government and just make sure that you 744 00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:29,000 Speaker 22: know it's it's going to be something that will land. Okay, 745 00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:32,520 Speaker 22: we've asked for a summary and though we you know, 746 00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:33,840 Speaker 22: we've asked for them to give that to us and 747 00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:35,560 Speaker 22: okaess legislat But. 748 00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:37,759 Speaker 3: So fair to say this was by you know, if 749 00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:40,440 Speaker 3: you're a concerned Auckland in a nice suburb and a 750 00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:43,440 Speaker 3: heritage listed suburb, this is not completely over yet. There 751 00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:46,440 Speaker 3: is more to go. Oh, there's a process to go through. 752 00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:49,480 Speaker 22: That's definitely true. So that we're asking the Council to 753 00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:52,160 Speaker 22: give us a provisional summary and then we're going to 754 00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:54,799 Speaker 22: legislate and then the plan change process itself's got away 755 00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:56,759 Speaker 22: way to run. It's not finished all twenty twenty seven. 756 00:35:56,840 --> 00:36:00,120 Speaker 22: So but however, there will also be an opportunity for 757 00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:03,879 Speaker 22: the Council very quickly to withdraw various different parts from 758 00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:06,560 Speaker 22: the plan change and exempt those areas and just go 759 00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:09,440 Speaker 22: back to the Auckland Unitary Plan. So that will be 760 00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:12,160 Speaker 22: over through the Council to do very quickly, and I 761 00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:14,280 Speaker 22: think that will provide a lot of finality in certainty 762 00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:14,680 Speaker 22: for people. 763 00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:17,400 Speaker 3: All right, thanks very much, Chris Bishop, Housing Minister ten 764 00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:17,960 Speaker 3: past five. 765 00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:20,239 Speaker 1: Here they do for Cellen. There are warnings the. 766 00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:22,880 Speaker 3: US may strike Iran as soon as this weekend, with 767 00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:25,680 Speaker 3: one anonymous source telling international media there is now a 768 00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:28,400 Speaker 3: ninety percent chance of war in the coming weeks. Ol 769 00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:30,839 Speaker 3: Gillespie is a law professor at the University of wy 770 00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:34,640 Speaker 3: Kappawa and an international law expert and with US Hilhi 771 00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:36,480 Speaker 3: heither does ninety percent sound real to you? 772 00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:40,040 Speaker 23: I think it's a bit high. It will depend on negotiations, 773 00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:41,360 Speaker 23: but it's certainly quite possible. 774 00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:44,600 Speaker 3: What would they have to give Trump in negotiations to 775 00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:45,120 Speaker 3: get out of this. 776 00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:48,400 Speaker 23: There's three things that they're looking at. The first one 777 00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:51,239 Speaker 23: is removing their nuclear ability, which I think you can 778 00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:54,200 Speaker 23: easily negotiate that. The second thing is removing their ballistic 779 00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:57,560 Speaker 23: missile ability, which I think it's possible but difficult. The 780 00:36:57,640 --> 00:36:59,920 Speaker 23: third one is maybe letting them have the right to protest, 781 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:00,920 Speaker 23: which they will never. 782 00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:03,880 Speaker 3: Allow, in which case here there's a strike. 783 00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:08,000 Speaker 23: Right, It is quite possible that the problem is is 784 00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:10,320 Speaker 23: that if you go into the situation like this, everyone's 785 00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:12,560 Speaker 23: thinking Venezuela, like you cut the head off the snake, 786 00:37:12,680 --> 00:37:15,839 Speaker 23: but here it's a very big snake, and it's if 787 00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:18,040 Speaker 23: you remove the Aatola, you were likely to have a 788 00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:21,600 Speaker 23: problem with the Revolutionary Guard taking power. That could turn 789 00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:23,160 Speaker 23: into a civil war and it could make the Arab 790 00:37:23,239 --> 00:37:25,240 Speaker 23: Spring look like a beginning party. 791 00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:28,520 Speaker 3: Okay, So if he does decide to do it, there 792 00:37:28,560 --> 00:37:30,480 Speaker 3: are a few problems because he's got a few things 793 00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:32,880 Speaker 3: on the calendar. Right We've got the Winter Olympics, and 794 00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:36,120 Speaker 3: generally you don't strike during winter. Olympics ends on Sunday, 795 00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:38,319 Speaker 3: but then you've got Ramadan starting on Wednesday. So that's 796 00:37:38,320 --> 00:37:39,440 Speaker 3: a very small window, isn't it. 797 00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:43,120 Speaker 23: So it's quite possible it could be sooner rather than later. 798 00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:45,319 Speaker 23: And he's also someone who's got to show strengths right 799 00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:47,040 Speaker 23: now because he's got a lot of other countries he's 800 00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:49,680 Speaker 23: trying to make do certain things. You can think Venezuela, 801 00:37:50,120 --> 00:37:51,600 Speaker 23: you can think Cuba. He's a man not to be 802 00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:53,760 Speaker 23: messed with, so he will want to have a projection 803 00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:54,280 Speaker 23: of power. 804 00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:56,239 Speaker 3: What do you think is a global impact if he 805 00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:57,000 Speaker 3: does go in there? 806 00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:00,840 Speaker 23: I think there's nothing an international law which says you 807 00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:03,560 Speaker 23: can force people to negotiate under threat or bond them 808 00:38:03,600 --> 00:38:05,920 Speaker 23: if they don't agree with you. I think it's another 809 00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:08,759 Speaker 23: aspect of the lawless world that we're engaging. And the 810 00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:11,360 Speaker 23: problem isn't just what when America does in China and 811 00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:12,279 Speaker 23: Russia follow suit. 812 00:38:12,680 --> 00:38:14,960 Speaker 3: All right, thank you for that. I'll appreciate. Al Gillespie 813 00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:19,960 Speaker 3: Wykathe University law professor so has been What is certainly 814 00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:22,480 Speaker 3: adding credibility to this ninety percent thing is just the 815 00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:24,600 Speaker 3: number of aircraft that are going into the Middle East 816 00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:26,799 Speaker 3: at the moment it's been tracked. On Monday, there are 817 00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:29,800 Speaker 3: at least six flights of the Strato tankers heading towards 818 00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:34,040 Speaker 3: the Middle East, then another eight recorded on Tuesday. On 819 00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:38,280 Speaker 3: Monday twenty USF thirty five combat aircraft took off from Suffolk. 820 00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:41,799 Speaker 3: On Tuesday twenty five, F sixteen jets flew to the US. 821 00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:43,880 Speaker 3: From the US to the Middle East. They landed in 822 00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:47,399 Speaker 3: southern Israel, also Jordan and Crete thirteen past five. Would 823 00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:49,920 Speaker 3: Heather do for see us more on house And it's 824 00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:52,280 Speaker 3: not just happening in Auckland's also happening in Wellington. Wellington 825 00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:55,880 Speaker 3: City Council has made a submission to submission on the 826 00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:59,480 Speaker 3: new Rama and it is asking for basically the power 827 00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:02,319 Speaker 3: to get rid of a heritage status from a whole 828 00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:05,320 Speaker 3: bunch of structures that already have it. And you'll be 829 00:39:05,360 --> 00:39:06,920 Speaker 3: thinking at that, like, if you're thinking what are we 830 00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:09,320 Speaker 3: talking about, think about the Gordon Wilson Flats, the really 831 00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:13,000 Speaker 3: ugly brutalist flats that were sitting there, you know as 832 00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:15,840 Speaker 3: you looked up the hill towards Victoria University. They have 833 00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:19,879 Speaker 3: been delisted. They're being bold also though, once private home 834 00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:22,040 Speaker 3: owners to be able to say no. So if the 835 00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:24,480 Speaker 3: heritage people come along ago your have beautiful We're gonna 836 00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:26,480 Speaker 3: put heritage listing on it, you can say nah, no, 837 00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:29,320 Speaker 3: thanks very much. Now, on balance, I think because I 838 00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:31,960 Speaker 3: love the old private property rights, I tend to agree 839 00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:35,560 Speaker 3: with this. However, if you think about a leafy suburb, 840 00:39:35,640 --> 00:39:37,520 Speaker 3: if you say yes to the heritage listing, but then 841 00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:39,440 Speaker 3: old mate next door says no bowls and puts that 842 00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:41,360 Speaker 3: up of an apartment, what's the point in the heritage 843 00:39:41,400 --> 00:39:43,360 Speaker 3: listing if you're the only one with it. So anyway, 844 00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:45,239 Speaker 3: we're gonna have a chat to Ben McNulty, Deputy Mayor 845 00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:47,399 Speaker 3: of Wellington. He'll be with us after half past five. 846 00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:48,719 Speaker 3: But I think the thing we can take from this 847 00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:53,040 Speaker 3: and Auckland is the building's on more houses coming five 848 00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:55,719 Speaker 3: point fourteen. Hey, are you a fisherman or a diver 849 00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:58,160 Speaker 3: or a kayaker? However you're heading out on the water 850 00:39:58,160 --> 00:39:59,960 Speaker 3: of the summer, keep an eye out for Boy Born, 851 00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:02,960 Speaker 3: your friendly reminder to stay safe before you launch. You're 852 00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:05,319 Speaker 3: gonna spot boy Boy bobbing around out there. Popping up 853 00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:07,880 Speaker 3: to remind you of the three big rules of the water. Okay, 854 00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:11,799 Speaker 3: Rule number one life jackets look better on wearing one 855 00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:14,280 Speaker 3: is the simplest and most effective way to protect yourself. 856 00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:16,880 Speaker 3: Rule number two. The marine where the forecast is not 857 00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:19,560 Speaker 3: going to check itself, so before you head out, take 858 00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:22,160 Speaker 3: a moment to look up the latest conditions so you're 859 00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:24,879 Speaker 3: not caught by surprise. And rule number three always take 860 00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:27,520 Speaker 3: two waterproof ways to call for help. A locator beacon 861 00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:29,600 Speaker 3: and a phone sealed in a plastic bag that can 862 00:40:29,640 --> 00:40:32,440 Speaker 3: make all the difference in an emergency. Preparation is the 863 00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:35,879 Speaker 3: key to staying safe. So before you push off, paddle out, 864 00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:39,120 Speaker 3: or drop a line, remember be sure before you leave 865 00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:39,520 Speaker 3: the shore. 866 00:40:39,960 --> 00:40:41,160 Speaker 1: Heather do for see Allen. 867 00:40:41,360 --> 00:40:43,400 Speaker 3: I have got an Erica Stanford update for you you 868 00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:45,680 Speaker 3: may enjoy and just a ticket seventeen past five. But 869 00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:48,239 Speaker 3: before we get to that, how is this for a 870 00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:50,360 Speaker 3: new site seeing trend? When you go on your overseas 871 00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:54,640 Speaker 3: holiday touring supermarkets? Apparently grocery tourism is a thing, and 872 00:40:54,719 --> 00:40:57,200 Speaker 3: a Hilton survey has found that seventy seven percent of 873 00:40:57,280 --> 00:41:02,080 Speaker 3: travelers actively hunt out supermarkets. Travel editor Sarah Pollock joins us. 874 00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:05,200 Speaker 3: Now on this high, Sarah, Hi, is this real? It's 875 00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:06,160 Speaker 3: absolutely real. 876 00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:09,080 Speaker 24: It sounds kind of crazy, but it was really big. 877 00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:11,160 Speaker 24: In twenty twenty five, we were saying it pop off 878 00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:14,439 Speaker 24: across like TikTok Instagram, but it's definitely a thing. Why 879 00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:16,520 Speaker 24: Three reasons? 880 00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:17,480 Speaker 3: I've got few. 881 00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:20,120 Speaker 24: Firstly, I think there's been a real desire in recent 882 00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:22,600 Speaker 24: years for authenticity when we travel. We want to go 883 00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:24,759 Speaker 24: where the locals go, and I mean, what is more 884 00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:26,200 Speaker 24: authentic than your weekly shop? 885 00:41:26,360 --> 00:41:26,520 Speaker 5: Right? 886 00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:29,319 Speaker 24: I think the second point that we could look at 887 00:41:29,480 --> 00:41:32,240 Speaker 24: is that it's it's a cheap way of traveling. You know, personally, 888 00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:34,400 Speaker 24: sometimes when I'm going tripping around and I'm wanting a 889 00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:36,680 Speaker 24: cheap bite to eat, I'm going to go to a supermarket. 890 00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:39,879 Speaker 24: And third, when you get there, it's the novelty, right, 891 00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:42,160 Speaker 24: like you're going to in a seven to eleven in Japan, 892 00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:46,560 Speaker 24: and you've got different flavors, you've got different languages, different packaging. 893 00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:50,080 Speaker 24: It's it's, you know, totally the novelty of the experience. 894 00:41:49,719 --> 00:41:51,239 Speaker 3: And then people film it and put it on the 895 00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:53,759 Speaker 3: TikTok they do, and what are they saying when they 896 00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:55,319 Speaker 3: film it and put it on the TikTok, Like wow, 897 00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:57,239 Speaker 3: look at this, it's a black chicken. I've never seen 898 00:41:57,320 --> 00:41:57,760 Speaker 3: one before. 899 00:41:58,080 --> 00:41:58,480 Speaker 25: Genuinely. 900 00:41:58,600 --> 00:42:00,600 Speaker 24: Sometimes yeah, I think I think it's food things. You know, 901 00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:03,680 Speaker 24: you hear a lot of people going they've got products 902 00:42:03,719 --> 00:42:06,160 Speaker 24: that they've they've loved in another country, and there's a 903 00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:08,600 Speaker 24: bit of nostalgia there, like whether there's like old American 904 00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:11,959 Speaker 24: candy or British products that they want to bring home. 905 00:42:12,880 --> 00:42:15,279 Speaker 24: But then sometimes it's just the bizarre things that you'll 906 00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:17,799 Speaker 24: find in other countries, like different flavors. I know, I'm 907 00:42:18,360 --> 00:42:21,759 Speaker 24: Japan has like Marcher, tim tams, things like that that 908 00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:24,200 Speaker 24: it's like this is really fascinating. So people do tend 909 00:42:24,280 --> 00:42:26,680 Speaker 24: to I mean not me personally, I just like kind 910 00:42:26,719 --> 00:42:29,480 Speaker 24: of explore around, but they'll film themselves walking around and. 911 00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:32,560 Speaker 3: The products you can get this there's way too much 912 00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:35,920 Speaker 3: content on the Internet. Okay, so somebody texts before just 913 00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:38,960 Speaker 3: before and said they sometimes see tour guides taking groups 914 00:42:38,960 --> 00:42:41,800 Speaker 3: of Chinese tourists through the Pack and Save in more House. No, 915 00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:45,040 Speaker 3: what do you reckon they? What are they thinking when 916 00:42:45,080 --> 00:42:46,600 Speaker 3: they're walking around our supermarkets. 917 00:42:46,719 --> 00:42:49,080 Speaker 24: I'm kind of delighted by that though, you know, like 918 00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:51,920 Speaker 24: what you find mundane someone else that this is totally 919 00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:53,920 Speaker 24: novel to them, Like, you know, you think about Whittakers 920 00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:57,280 Speaker 24: and people will bring back like dozens of Whittaker blocks. 921 00:42:57,440 --> 00:42:59,319 Speaker 24: I was in the supermarket yesterday actually, and I saw 922 00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:01,840 Speaker 24: this guy's trolley filled with Whittakers. 923 00:43:01,920 --> 00:43:04,600 Speaker 3: But that's not because Whittakers is weird. That's because it's delicious. 924 00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:06,719 Speaker 3: It is delicious, but it's also you can't get it 925 00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:10,320 Speaker 3: anywhere else, right, Okay, all right, so where are you 926 00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:12,120 Speaker 3: going to? Which supermarket are you going to next? 927 00:43:12,320 --> 00:43:12,440 Speaker 2: Well? 928 00:43:12,520 --> 00:43:14,400 Speaker 24: This is kind of what I love about the trend 929 00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:17,520 Speaker 24: is that you know, it's been this is as a phenomenon, 930 00:43:17,520 --> 00:43:19,720 Speaker 24: has been covered by New York Times, it's been covered 931 00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:23,960 Speaker 24: by Vogue, and obviously they'll list famous supermarkets in Paris 932 00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:24,600 Speaker 24: or Milan. 933 00:43:25,160 --> 00:43:27,560 Speaker 3: But the beauty is and obviously, and pack. 934 00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:29,640 Speaker 24: And Save obviously, But I think the beauty of it 935 00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:32,600 Speaker 24: is like it could be any supermarket, you know, it 936 00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:34,719 Speaker 24: could be one that I've seen pop up a lot. 937 00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:38,560 Speaker 24: Is like the seven eleven's in Japan are apparently incredible. 938 00:43:38,560 --> 00:43:40,959 Speaker 3: Popping off at the moment. Apparently that's their pack and save. 939 00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:41,719 Speaker 6: Yeah. 940 00:43:41,880 --> 00:43:46,479 Speaker 3: Well, okay, so I'm going to stop taking the McKey 941 00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:48,799 Speaker 3: out of people for doing this because apparently it's the thing. 942 00:43:48,920 --> 00:43:51,239 Speaker 3: I'm off trend. Sarah, thank you very much for putting 943 00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:54,080 Speaker 3: me back on trend. That's Sarah Pollock, the Herald's travel editor. 944 00:43:55,239 --> 00:43:56,600 Speaker 3: That's weird. Twenty past five. 945 00:43:57,360 --> 00:44:01,640 Speaker 1: Digging deeper into the day's headlines, Heather dup Clan drive 946 00:44:02,040 --> 00:44:05,800 Speaker 1: with one New Zealand coverage like no one else news talks, 947 00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:06,120 Speaker 1: they'd be. 948 00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:09,759 Speaker 3: I've got to get you across a little if I know. 949 00:44:09,920 --> 00:44:11,680 Speaker 3: It's a blast from the past, but in New Zealand 950 00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:14,200 Speaker 3: and Aukland Airport of fighting again. So I'll get you 951 00:44:14,239 --> 00:44:16,600 Speaker 3: across that shortly and we'll talk to Eakland Airport after six. 952 00:44:16,680 --> 00:44:19,600 Speaker 3: Right now, it's five to twenty three. Now is it 953 00:44:19,800 --> 00:44:22,680 Speaker 3: really any surprise at all that the government has ditched 954 00:44:22,719 --> 00:44:25,120 Speaker 3: plans to try to bring in four year election terms 955 00:44:25,840 --> 00:44:27,640 Speaker 3: in the end, Their proposal I think was just too 956 00:44:27,680 --> 00:44:30,000 Speaker 3: complicated to ever get across the line, and that was obvious. 957 00:44:30,040 --> 00:44:31,399 Speaker 3: I mean, I think, and I think we can blame 958 00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:33,480 Speaker 3: the ACT Party for this, because it was ACT that 959 00:44:33,600 --> 00:44:35,560 Speaker 3: said that it would support a four year term, but 960 00:44:35,680 --> 00:44:38,239 Speaker 3: only if Parliament agreed to Amen's standing Order, so that 961 00:44:38,320 --> 00:44:40,600 Speaker 3: the Opposition would have a majority on the majority, if 962 00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:42,799 Speaker 3: not all of the Select committees. And if it didn't 963 00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:44,120 Speaker 3: want to do that in that term, then the term 964 00:44:44,120 --> 00:44:46,040 Speaker 3: would be the bog standard three year term, which meant 965 00:44:46,040 --> 00:44:47,800 Speaker 3: that we would be going to any given election not 966 00:44:47,920 --> 00:44:49,719 Speaker 3: knowing if we were voting for a four year term 967 00:44:49,800 --> 00:44:51,560 Speaker 3: or a three year term, because that would only be 968 00:44:51,600 --> 00:44:55,200 Speaker 3: decided by the government after the election. Can you see 969 00:44:55,239 --> 00:44:58,920 Speaker 3: why that didn't work? Miles? Too complicated? Who wants to 970 00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:01,320 Speaker 3: go to an election not knowing what you're voting for. 971 00:45:02,040 --> 00:45:04,359 Speaker 3: I'm not blaming the ACT Party for stuffing this up, though, 972 00:45:04,400 --> 00:45:06,279 Speaker 3: by the way, I am actually quite grateful to them, 973 00:45:06,280 --> 00:45:09,200 Speaker 3: because I am yet to be convinced that the four 974 00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:11,400 Speaker 3: year term is a good idea. In this country. We 975 00:45:11,520 --> 00:45:13,480 Speaker 3: have some of the fastest lawmaking in the world. You 976 00:45:13,560 --> 00:45:15,239 Speaker 3: don't need me to tell you that. We've been talking 977 00:45:15,280 --> 00:45:19,000 Speaker 3: about since what the nineteen eighties. You cannot tell me. 978 00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:21,440 Speaker 3: Governments do not have enough time in this country to 979 00:45:21,520 --> 00:45:23,239 Speaker 3: get done the thing that they want to get done 980 00:45:23,360 --> 00:45:25,600 Speaker 3: if laws get passed as fast as they do. And 981 00:45:25,680 --> 00:45:28,800 Speaker 3: the problem is there are no real checks on those plans. 982 00:45:28,840 --> 00:45:30,720 Speaker 3: We don't have an upper House, we don't have a Senate, 983 00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:32,839 Speaker 3: we don't have a House of Lords. The only real 984 00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:35,840 Speaker 3: check is the coalition partners in this case Act and 985 00:45:36,040 --> 00:45:39,520 Speaker 3: National and New Zealand first checking each other. So imagine 986 00:45:39,560 --> 00:45:42,280 Speaker 3: this right, Imagine if Chris Bishop had had his housing 987 00:45:42,360 --> 00:45:46,480 Speaker 3: plan happening in a year that wasn't an election year, 988 00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:49,440 Speaker 3: would he have back down? There's nothing to stop them. 989 00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:52,400 Speaker 3: In the UK they have council elections that you know 990 00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:55,480 Speaker 3: will that is currently a problem for Kostama. That kind 991 00:45:55,480 --> 00:45:57,839 Speaker 3: of thing stops people. But here we have nothing other 992 00:45:57,920 --> 00:46:01,200 Speaker 3: than election years. Election years are a check on bad ideas. 993 00:46:01,440 --> 00:46:02,960 Speaker 3: That is why Chris Bishop has had to do the 994 00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:05,560 Speaker 3: back down, because this is not just about having three 995 00:46:05,640 --> 00:46:08,880 Speaker 3: or four years of bad governments like justinta ar Durn's. 996 00:46:09,160 --> 00:46:11,440 Speaker 3: It's also about having three or four years of your 997 00:46:11,560 --> 00:46:14,640 Speaker 3: chosen government having some of its own bad ideas. So 998 00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:17,680 Speaker 3: actor has unwittingly actually done us a favor. 999 00:46:17,760 --> 00:46:19,839 Speaker 1: I think Heather duplusy Ellen. 1000 00:46:20,280 --> 00:46:24,920 Speaker 3: Apparently the thing that people find weird about our supermarkets 1001 00:46:24,960 --> 00:46:27,000 Speaker 3: when they do tours of our supermarkets is that we 1002 00:46:27,120 --> 00:46:30,040 Speaker 3: leave our eggs on the shelf and we don't refrigerate them, 1003 00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:33,880 Speaker 3: and that really buzzes them out. So imagine that, imagine 1004 00:46:33,920 --> 00:46:36,319 Speaker 3: coming Imagine imagine one of them coming to New Zealand going, Hey, 1005 00:46:36,320 --> 00:46:37,640 Speaker 3: we're going on a tour of the pack and Save. 1006 00:46:37,640 --> 00:46:39,400 Speaker 3: I'm really excited about this year. I've heard about the 1007 00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:40,800 Speaker 3: pack and Save supermarket. We're going to go on to 1008 00:46:40,960 --> 00:46:42,600 Speaker 3: do you know what, they don't put their eggs in 1009 00:46:42,640 --> 00:46:44,920 Speaker 3: the fridge? Is that really the young that you want 1010 00:46:44,920 --> 00:46:48,280 Speaker 3: to go back and tell people after your trip. Anyway, 1011 00:46:48,320 --> 00:46:49,880 Speaker 3: we'll take this to the huddle when they're with us. 1012 00:46:50,680 --> 00:46:54,320 Speaker 3: Erica Stanford's had quite an epic clap back. So n ZEI, 1013 00:46:54,600 --> 00:46:57,520 Speaker 3: which is the primary school teacher's union, has launched an 1014 00:46:57,560 --> 00:47:00,360 Speaker 3: anti government campaign that's supposed to be a little bit 1015 00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:02,279 Speaker 3: funny because they've called it make it Stop, as in 1016 00:47:02,360 --> 00:47:05,000 Speaker 3: make the government stop. But what they're using as an 1017 00:47:05,040 --> 00:47:07,759 Speaker 3: example is kids playing the recorder and asking them to 1018 00:47:07,800 --> 00:47:10,640 Speaker 3: make it stop. So what do you think keep pretending 1019 00:47:10,719 --> 00:47:24,400 Speaker 3: all of this is fine or which is actually quite funny. 1020 00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:28,120 Speaker 3: But anyway, eric A Stanford has then come out and said, hey, 1021 00:47:28,680 --> 00:47:32,200 Speaker 3: n Zdi, don't be mean to the music education teachers 1022 00:47:32,360 --> 00:47:34,520 Speaker 3: because they're actually doing a very good job teaching their 1023 00:47:34,560 --> 00:47:36,799 Speaker 3: kids how to play recorder, which is foundational for when 1024 00:47:36,840 --> 00:47:38,160 Speaker 3: you want to go on and play I don't know, 1025 00:47:38,239 --> 00:47:41,640 Speaker 3: the bassoon or the obo or something like that. And 1026 00:47:41,840 --> 00:47:45,280 Speaker 3: so she has then busted out her own recorder skills. 1027 00:47:51,400 --> 00:47:53,919 Speaker 20: So to all those music teachers out there, please don't stop, 1028 00:47:54,120 --> 00:47:54,879 Speaker 20: please keep going. 1029 00:47:56,800 --> 00:47:58,320 Speaker 3: That was her on the recorder. Do you want to 1030 00:47:58,360 --> 00:48:00,000 Speaker 3: hear that again? That was quite impressive, wasn't it. 1031 00:48:05,760 --> 00:48:08,920 Speaker 26: So to all those music teachers out there, please don't stop, Please. 1032 00:48:08,760 --> 00:48:12,000 Speaker 3: Keep don't pretend that you're not impressed by that. But also. 1033 00:48:13,719 --> 00:48:15,359 Speaker 17: I just want to know where n City I got 1034 00:48:15,400 --> 00:48:17,840 Speaker 17: the audio of my old recorder that they used to 1035 00:48:17,920 --> 00:48:20,719 Speaker 17: narrate it. That's about the skill level I reached with it. 1036 00:48:21,640 --> 00:48:23,919 Speaker 3: My brother tried to give us a recorder for the kids, 1037 00:48:24,239 --> 00:48:26,040 Speaker 3: and I left at at his house when I left 1038 00:48:26,440 --> 00:48:29,560 Speaker 3: on purpose. Wellington City Council next year. 1039 00:48:32,440 --> 00:48:36,479 Speaker 1: The Day's newsmakers talked to Heather first Heather Duplicy Ellen 1040 00:48:36,560 --> 00:48:39,840 Speaker 1: drive with one New Zealand and the power of satellite 1041 00:48:39,880 --> 00:48:41,440 Speaker 1: mobile new stalks that'd be. 1042 00:48:43,320 --> 00:48:44,000 Speaker 3: So I'll give a. 1043 00:48:48,520 --> 00:48:48,719 Speaker 19: Lane. 1044 00:48:49,040 --> 00:48:50,880 Speaker 3: So the heart standing by going to be with us. 1045 00:48:50,920 --> 00:48:54,080 Speaker 3: Shortly in New Zealand has been before a Select committee 1046 00:48:54,120 --> 00:48:57,600 Speaker 3: and been asked about why their domestic prices is so high, 1047 00:48:57,640 --> 00:49:02,520 Speaker 3: and they flamed Auckland Airport. Auckland Airport just changes that 1048 00:49:02,680 --> 00:49:04,839 Speaker 3: too much basically, which is a bit I feel little 1049 00:49:04,840 --> 00:49:06,759 Speaker 3: bit cynical about the timing because they've said this on 1050 00:49:06,840 --> 00:49:08,920 Speaker 3: the day that Auckland Airport was due to report it's 1051 00:49:09,000 --> 00:49:11,719 Speaker 3: half year results to the NZX, which actually were not 1052 00:49:11,800 --> 00:49:14,440 Speaker 3: half bad. So it's quite clever from me in New 1053 00:49:14,520 --> 00:49:18,160 Speaker 3: Zealand to hijacket, but also quite rude anyway, Auckland Airport's 1054 00:49:18,200 --> 00:49:20,080 Speaker 3: with us after six standby for that. It's twenty four 1055 00:49:20,120 --> 00:49:23,600 Speaker 3: away from six. Now to Wellington City Council. Wellington City 1056 00:49:23,600 --> 00:49:26,359 Speaker 3: Council wants more power to strip heritage listings. It's made 1057 00:49:26,400 --> 00:49:28,960 Speaker 3: a submission on the New Rama asking for the power 1058 00:49:29,040 --> 00:49:32,879 Speaker 3: to dlist structures already given heritage status, and it also 1059 00:49:32,960 --> 00:49:35,200 Speaker 3: wants private homeowners to have the power to say no 1060 00:49:35,719 --> 00:49:38,360 Speaker 3: to heritage listing. Ben McNulty is the Deputy Mayor of 1061 00:49:38,440 --> 00:49:41,960 Speaker 3: Wellington High ben Cure Heaver. Any structures of mine that 1062 00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:42,640 Speaker 3: you want to strip. 1063 00:49:44,080 --> 00:49:46,640 Speaker 13: Oh, they've got the rusting oil tank and Merrima that 1064 00:49:46,760 --> 00:49:49,839 Speaker 13: at last countsil unanimously voted to de list. We've got 1065 00:49:49,840 --> 00:49:52,360 Speaker 13: Gordon Wilson which had to be pulled out through legislation. 1066 00:49:52,560 --> 00:49:55,520 Speaker 13: We've got things like private homes that have the same 1067 00:49:55,640 --> 00:49:59,560 Speaker 13: heritage significance as Parliament House fit. Statistically, zero percent of 1068 00:49:59,600 --> 00:50:02,800 Speaker 13: New Zealand will ever visit costs double the insurance to maintain. 1069 00:50:02,840 --> 00:50:04,520 Speaker 13: I've got to get a resource consent if you in 1070 00:50:04,560 --> 00:50:07,440 Speaker 13: a reroof or reglaze. So properties like that where it's 1071 00:50:07,520 --> 00:50:08,680 Speaker 13: just completely inappropriate. 1072 00:50:09,600 --> 00:50:13,240 Speaker 3: Okay, So where are these houses that are so protected? 1073 00:50:14,320 --> 00:50:17,160 Speaker 13: So the one particularly I'm thinking of as in Nio, 1074 00:50:17,280 --> 00:50:19,279 Speaker 13: but there's a few dotted around Wellington but have that 1075 00:50:19,400 --> 00:50:21,520 Speaker 13: level of protection in the Hut Valley. There's about one 1076 00:50:21,600 --> 00:50:24,520 Speaker 13: hundred and seventy in the Botoni area. And again it's 1077 00:50:24,560 --> 00:50:27,400 Speaker 13: the regulatory burden that actually comes with having that listing 1078 00:50:27,480 --> 00:50:29,719 Speaker 13: on there. Your insurance premium got to rebuild to a 1079 00:50:29,800 --> 00:50:32,480 Speaker 13: certain standard. So there's got to be an element of 1080 00:50:32,600 --> 00:50:35,680 Speaker 13: consent in here. Because the upkeep and maintenance costs. When 1081 00:50:35,760 --> 00:50:37,600 Speaker 13: your rates are going up, your powers going up, and 1082 00:50:37,680 --> 00:50:40,360 Speaker 13: your wages aren't moving is creating a real burden on 1083 00:50:40,400 --> 00:50:41,120 Speaker 13: those homeowners. 1084 00:50:41,239 --> 00:50:44,280 Speaker 3: But are these particularly special houses? Is there something special 1085 00:50:44,320 --> 00:50:44,759 Speaker 3: about them? 1086 00:50:45,560 --> 00:50:45,680 Speaker 2: Oh? 1087 00:50:45,800 --> 00:50:47,880 Speaker 13: I mean the one I'm referencing in Nio is just 1088 00:50:48,640 --> 00:50:51,640 Speaker 13: seen as historic because it has some nineteen sixties features 1089 00:50:51,640 --> 00:50:54,600 Speaker 13: and it was designed by a relatively prominent architect. Does 1090 00:50:54,640 --> 00:50:56,839 Speaker 13: that give it the same level as national significance as 1091 00:50:56,880 --> 00:50:59,279 Speaker 13: Parliament House? I don't really see how, but that's what 1092 00:50:59,400 --> 00:51:02,040 Speaker 13: heritage lists, Sorry, Heritage New Zealand have determined. 1093 00:51:02,040 --> 00:51:06,719 Speaker 3: Oh lord, okay, Now I love the idea that as 1094 00:51:06,760 --> 00:51:08,440 Speaker 3: a homeowner you can say no, I do not want 1095 00:51:08,440 --> 00:51:10,200 Speaker 3: to I don't want this place to be heritage listed. 1096 00:51:10,280 --> 00:51:10,680 Speaker 6: Go away. 1097 00:51:11,120 --> 00:51:13,440 Speaker 3: But doesn't it kind of defeat the purpose if you've 1098 00:51:13,480 --> 00:51:16,200 Speaker 3: got an entire suburb that is supposed to be heritage 1099 00:51:16,200 --> 00:51:18,359 Speaker 3: list so that's its look, right, and then you've got 1100 00:51:18,719 --> 00:51:20,719 Speaker 3: some pockets saying yes, some pockets saying no, You've got 1101 00:51:20,800 --> 00:51:22,280 Speaker 3: random buildings popping up in the middle. 1102 00:51:23,600 --> 00:51:26,320 Speaker 13: If we had a working system, I'd buy into that argument. 1103 00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:29,239 Speaker 13: But our offices gave an incredible summation this morning. But 1104 00:51:29,400 --> 00:51:31,879 Speaker 13: the current heritage system is a pressure valve. Once something 1105 00:51:31,960 --> 00:51:34,799 Speaker 13: goes in, it does not come out. There was one 1106 00:51:34,960 --> 00:51:37,440 Speaker 13: property we managed to delist when we passed our district 1107 00:51:37,480 --> 00:51:40,200 Speaker 13: plan in twenty twenty four. That property we delisted it 1108 00:51:40,239 --> 00:51:43,320 Speaker 13: because it no longer exists. It's burned down. That's the 1109 00:51:43,440 --> 00:51:46,000 Speaker 13: level of dysfunction that we have in heritage rules right now. 1110 00:51:46,120 --> 00:51:49,520 Speaker 13: So yeah, something advocating for a pretty bold position on it. 1111 00:51:49,680 --> 00:51:51,239 Speaker 13: But it's because we need to move the over to 1112 00:51:51,280 --> 00:51:53,800 Speaker 13: the window and realize that holding onto absolutely everything in 1113 00:51:53,840 --> 00:51:56,320 Speaker 13: the past is not doing this country any favors. 1114 00:51:57,040 --> 00:51:58,879 Speaker 3: You know, you realize it will surprise people that it's 1115 00:51:58,880 --> 00:51:59,760 Speaker 3: coming from Wellington. 1116 00:52:00,440 --> 00:52:03,960 Speaker 13: This argument, Well, I think actually we're quite progressive when 1117 00:52:04,000 --> 00:52:05,960 Speaker 13: it comes to building on Wellington. You know, you'll be 1118 00:52:06,040 --> 00:52:08,600 Speaker 13: talking about Chris Bishop's back down in Auckland today, I'm sure. 1119 00:52:08,640 --> 00:52:11,759 Speaker 13: But we in Wellington embraced the opportunities that come of 1120 00:52:11,880 --> 00:52:14,879 Speaker 13: up zoning. If you build more housing where you have infrastructure, 1121 00:52:14,880 --> 00:52:16,879 Speaker 13: it has less marginal cost, you have more great payers 1122 00:52:16,920 --> 00:52:18,840 Speaker 13: and that stuff's all good for city vitality and for 1123 00:52:18,920 --> 00:52:21,480 Speaker 13: the council's balance sheet. So yeah, look, when it comes 1124 00:52:21,480 --> 00:52:24,279 Speaker 13: to building and this government Wellington, we actually see quite 1125 00:52:24,280 --> 00:52:25,520 Speaker 13: a lot of things eye to eye surprise. 1126 00:52:25,520 --> 00:52:27,239 Speaker 3: I mean, Ben, what I mean is you sound more 1127 00:52:27,280 --> 00:52:28,960 Speaker 3: act than an ACT Party MP. 1128 00:52:29,960 --> 00:52:30,160 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1129 00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:32,319 Speaker 13: Well, the Act Party they talk a big game when 1130 00:52:32,360 --> 00:52:34,680 Speaker 13: it comes to sort of libertarianism and property rights, but 1131 00:52:34,719 --> 00:52:37,440 Speaker 13: it doesn't seem to follow through around the parliamentary circle. 1132 00:52:37,520 --> 00:52:40,120 Speaker 13: But I've come to this position out of being a 1133 00:52:40,160 --> 00:52:42,880 Speaker 13: Wellington City councilor and when we approved three hundred and 1134 00:52:42,920 --> 00:52:45,000 Speaker 13: twenty million dollars to approve the town Hall because we 1135 00:52:45,160 --> 00:52:47,879 Speaker 13: literally had no other choice, something in me broke here. 1136 00:52:48,080 --> 00:52:50,040 Speaker 13: And since then I've really been on a crusade to 1137 00:52:50,120 --> 00:52:53,279 Speaker 13: modernize our dysfunctional, ridiculous heritage laws. 1138 00:52:53,680 --> 00:52:55,920 Speaker 3: Ben, thank you very much, very much, appreciate your time 1139 00:52:55,960 --> 00:52:58,719 Speaker 3: has been McNaughty, Wellington City Deputy Mayor.

I mean, that's 1153 00:53:36,080 --> 00:53:37,880 Speaker 3: the structure he wants to delist immediately. 1154 00:53:38,520 --> 00:53:38,759 Speaker 2: Phil. 1155 00:53:38,960 --> 00:53:40,320 Speaker 3: I mean the thing about it is this should be 1156 00:53:40,400 --> 00:53:41,880 Speaker 3: rolled outcross the whole country, shouldn't it. 1157 00:53:43,280 --> 00:53:46,600 Speaker 12: Yeah, look, we need more houses. This is a back 1158 00:53:46,680 --> 00:53:49,600 Speaker 12: down obviously by the government because those people in the 1159 00:53:49,680 --> 00:53:52,520 Speaker 12: leafy suburbs that suddenly sound that they might have to 1160 00:53:52,560 --> 00:53:55,600 Speaker 12: face intensification, said are you going to do this to us? 1161 00:53:55,680 --> 00:53:57,799 Speaker 12: This is our home. We're going to think about our 1162 00:53:57,880 --> 00:53:59,880 Speaker 12: vote for you. And that was very clear to the 1163 00:54:00,040 --> 00:54:04,640 Speaker 12: Prime Minister in the meeting in his electorate last December. 1164 00:54:06,200 --> 00:54:09,480 Speaker 12: I'd still keep heritage protection for those areas that have 1165 00:54:09,600 --> 00:54:12,799 Speaker 12: special character, and I think Auckland Council does that. There 1166 00:54:12,840 --> 00:54:16,080 Speaker 12: are parts of the city that reflect the development, particularly 1167 00:54:16,160 --> 00:54:21,000 Speaker 12: the old villas around the late nineteenth century early twentieth century, 1168 00:54:21,040 --> 00:54:24,080 Speaker 12: and I think it's worth preserving your history where you can. 1169 00:54:24,560 --> 00:54:27,400 Speaker 12: But I am in favor of intensification in the CBD 1170 00:54:28,160 --> 00:54:32,640 Speaker 12: absolutely where you've got transport hubs and along major transport routes. 1171 00:54:32,840 --> 00:54:35,160 Speaker 12: That's what light rail was about. Of course, twenty five 1172 00:54:35,200 --> 00:54:38,480 Speaker 12: percent of Auckland's future housing development would have been on 1173 00:54:38,560 --> 00:54:42,759 Speaker 12: the Auckland dismiss if light rail had gone ahead. But 1174 00:54:42,880 --> 00:54:45,440 Speaker 12: now that you don't have that and you've got bus congestion, 1175 00:54:46,040 --> 00:54:47,759 Speaker 12: you're probably not going to get that same level of 1176 00:54:47,800 --> 00:54:49,400 Speaker 12: development that you really need. 1177 00:54:50,239 --> 00:54:52,440 Speaker 3: Explain something to me, David. We've ended up in a 1178 00:54:52,480 --> 00:54:54,879 Speaker 3: situation in Auckland. If the council carries on the way 1179 00:54:54,880 --> 00:54:56,600 Speaker 3: that we think that they are, it will be It 1180 00:54:56,680 --> 00:54:58,200 Speaker 3: seems to me the perfect way to do it. You 1181 00:54:58,320 --> 00:55:02,120 Speaker 3: just have the intensification along the the transport corridors. Why 1182 00:55:02,239 --> 00:55:05,080 Speaker 3: didn't they do this first? Because I do not buy 1183 00:55:05,600 --> 00:55:08,280 Speaker 3: from him that argument that it was an allcland council request. 1184 00:55:09,160 --> 00:55:12,239 Speaker 5: Because I'm not sure that run the transport corridors will 1185 00:55:12,280 --> 00:55:15,520 Speaker 5: be enough to be blunt. The problem we've had is 1186 00:55:15,600 --> 00:55:18,680 Speaker 5: there's been some good stuff in housing, but almost a 1187 00:55:18,719 --> 00:55:20,960 Speaker 5: bit sinkling. We'll do a both of brown fields here, 1188 00:55:21,040 --> 00:55:22,960 Speaker 5: we do a bove green fields here. So I like 1189 00:55:23,160 --> 00:55:26,080 Speaker 5: the government's ambition and I think it is a bit said. 1190 00:55:26,120 --> 00:55:29,759 Speaker 5: They've had to back down, but you know that's the 1191 00:55:29,800 --> 00:55:32,040 Speaker 5: real lack of it. The joke is that you're the 1192 00:55:32,200 --> 00:55:34,359 Speaker 5: MP for IPS and then the leader for APT had 1193 00:55:34,400 --> 00:55:37,520 Speaker 5: a ferocious battle over this and the MP for IPS 1194 00:55:37,600 --> 00:55:40,880 Speaker 5: and one it was just too unpopular with those MP's 1195 00:55:40,960 --> 00:55:44,400 Speaker 5: in the eastern suburbs. But you know it may not 1196 00:55:44,520 --> 00:55:47,400 Speaker 5: be enough. That's the danger is keeping it just to 1197 00:55:47,560 --> 00:55:49,759 Speaker 5: transport hubs won't. 1198 00:55:51,600 --> 00:55:53,520 Speaker 3: But David, we're having this argument at a time when 1199 00:55:53,560 --> 00:55:56,600 Speaker 3: we have basically no migration to speak of. People that 1200 00:55:56,719 --> 00:55:59,320 Speaker 3: rents are dropping because there is an there's an abundance 1201 00:55:59,360 --> 00:56:01,359 Speaker 3: of housing. So do we really need like that extra 1202 00:56:01,400 --> 00:56:03,520 Speaker 3: four hundred thousand the difference between one point six and 1203 00:56:03,600 --> 00:56:05,240 Speaker 3: two is that really that crucial? 1204 00:56:06,440 --> 00:56:08,719 Speaker 5: Well, I know we have to care for about long term. 1205 00:56:08,800 --> 00:56:11,799 Speaker 5: We're going to have migration next thirty years or so, etc. 1206 00:56:12,800 --> 00:56:15,840 Speaker 5: So I think we definitely do need to be prepared 1207 00:56:15,840 --> 00:56:17,799 Speaker 5: for that because the problem is if you haven't got 1208 00:56:17,840 --> 00:56:21,360 Speaker 5: it in the pipeline, once you've got the migration coming in, 1209 00:56:21,760 --> 00:56:23,600 Speaker 5: you get real pressure. And there is a part of 1210 00:56:23,640 --> 00:56:28,080 Speaker 5: Winston's backlashes when people think infrastructures are problem due to immigration. 1211 00:56:28,719 --> 00:56:29,799 Speaker 5: So you do want to be. 1212 00:56:29,800 --> 00:56:30,600 Speaker 12: Ahead of the curve? 1213 00:56:30,800 --> 00:56:31,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, what do you reckon? 1214 00:56:31,719 --> 00:56:33,000 Speaker 5: Fil Yeah? 1215 00:56:33,080 --> 00:56:35,840 Speaker 12: Look, I was visiting my old electric in Mount Roscoll 1216 00:56:36,200 --> 00:56:39,640 Speaker 12: over the weekend and there are just literally scores of 1217 00:56:39,800 --> 00:56:42,359 Speaker 12: empty sections that have been empty for two to three 1218 00:56:42,480 --> 00:56:45,839 Speaker 12: years because they've stopped building social housing. And on one 1219 00:56:45,920 --> 00:56:47,520 Speaker 12: site I went to the we used to have eighty 1220 00:56:48,200 --> 00:56:52,280 Speaker 12: senior citizen units on the site. They were a medium density, 1221 00:56:52,520 --> 00:56:55,120 Speaker 12: great place to visit, they had their own social room, 1222 00:56:55,160 --> 00:56:58,719 Speaker 12: they had a men's workshop. They've knocked them down and 1223 00:56:58,800 --> 00:57:01,200 Speaker 12: now they're going to turn it into to a truck 1224 00:57:01,920 --> 00:57:05,680 Speaker 12: sales park. And I thought, Wow, what about all these people, 1225 00:57:05,840 --> 00:57:08,480 Speaker 12: you know, baby boomers like me, but who didn't have 1226 00:57:08,560 --> 00:57:11,359 Speaker 12: the income that I had, that rented all their life. 1227 00:57:11,480 --> 00:57:14,239 Speaker 12: Now they're in retirement, they're still paying market rents, but 1228 00:57:14,280 --> 00:57:18,440 Speaker 12: they're not getting even an average wage. What's going to 1229 00:57:18,480 --> 00:57:21,040 Speaker 12: happen to those people if we don't start building that 1230 00:57:21,080 --> 00:57:22,440 Speaker 12: sort of social housing for them. 1231 00:57:22,640 --> 00:57:23,520 Speaker 1: But the sites are there. 1232 00:57:24,040 --> 00:57:26,720 Speaker 12: Why knock over a beautiful old villa when you've got 1233 00:57:26,800 --> 00:57:29,400 Speaker 12: empty sections that you haven't developed for two or three 1234 00:57:29,480 --> 00:57:31,680 Speaker 12: years and you'll probably sell at the bottom of the market. 1235 00:57:31,960 --> 00:57:33,160 Speaker 12: That seems crazy to me. 1236 00:57:33,400 --> 00:57:35,479 Speaker 3: That's the frustration of how slow government moves. O, okay, 1237 00:57:35,480 --> 00:57:37,920 Speaker 3: we'll take a break. Come back shortly sixteen away from six. 1238 00:57:39,080 --> 00:57:42,800 Speaker 1: The Huddle with New Zealand Southeby's International Realty the only 1239 00:57:42,960 --> 00:57:44,240 Speaker 1: truly global brand. 1240 00:57:44,600 --> 00:57:46,600 Speaker 3: Thirteen away from six Back with the Huddle, Phil Golf 1241 00:57:46,640 --> 00:57:48,840 Speaker 3: and David Farrer. Phil on a scale of one to ten, 1242 00:57:48,920 --> 00:57:50,920 Speaker 3: how we exercised. Are you about the racist thing that 1243 00:57:50,960 --> 00:57:52,040 Speaker 3: Winston apparently said? 1244 00:57:53,880 --> 00:57:54,040 Speaker 25: Oh? 1245 00:57:54,320 --> 00:57:58,760 Speaker 12: Look, I worked with Winston for thirty years. He knows 1246 00:57:58,800 --> 00:58:00,480 Speaker 12: what he said was wrong, that it is a lie. 1247 00:58:00,920 --> 00:58:05,000 Speaker 12: He was racking up the Green member. He does it 1248 00:58:05,080 --> 00:58:07,600 Speaker 12: all the time. The other day when I challenged him 1249 00:58:07,640 --> 00:58:09,840 Speaker 12: because he wasn't showing the guts, I thought he should 1250 00:58:09,840 --> 00:58:12,760 Speaker 12: have to criticize Trump. When Trump said that our soldiers 1251 00:58:12,800 --> 00:58:14,680 Speaker 12: didn't have the courage to be on the front line, 1252 00:58:15,240 --> 00:58:17,120 Speaker 12: he said, oh, gough, he's a communist and he's a 1253 00:58:17,200 --> 00:58:18,200 Speaker 12: member of the p YM. 1254 00:58:18,880 --> 00:58:19,800 Speaker 8: Well, you know, in the. 1255 00:58:19,840 --> 00:58:23,520 Speaker 12: Nineteen fifties calling somebody a communist hurt and the PYM. 1256 00:58:23,600 --> 00:58:26,240 Speaker 12: Nobody knows what the PYM is. Both of those things 1257 00:58:26,280 --> 00:58:28,919 Speaker 12: are lies. He knows they lies, but he still says 1258 00:58:28,960 --> 00:58:31,520 Speaker 12: it because he can't help himself. So do I care 1259 00:58:31,560 --> 00:58:34,160 Speaker 12: about what he says. Nah, not much other than that 1260 00:58:34,240 --> 00:58:37,280 Speaker 12: he will wind up the prejudice in people that do 1261 00:58:37,480 --> 00:58:40,200 Speaker 12: believe what he says. And on my social media site, 1262 00:58:40,320 --> 00:58:42,800 Speaker 12: I suddenly got all these accusations that I was a communist. 1263 00:58:43,920 --> 00:58:46,240 Speaker 12: There you go, but no guy to fall. 1264 00:58:46,960 --> 00:58:49,360 Speaker 3: The reason I asked this question, David, is because I'm 1265 00:58:49,600 --> 00:58:53,200 Speaker 3: surprised at how exercised there are some people in the 1266 00:58:53,240 --> 00:58:55,840 Speaker 3: media still get about stuff that Winston says when there 1267 00:58:55,920 --> 00:58:58,280 Speaker 3: is legit racist stuff out there to be reporting on it. 1268 00:58:58,400 --> 00:58:59,600 Speaker 3: This is not one of them, Like, this is not 1269 00:58:59,600 --> 00:59:00,000 Speaker 3: a big. 1270 00:59:01,240 --> 00:59:05,040 Speaker 5: I kin decide what less newsworthy A that Winston said 1271 00:59:05,120 --> 00:59:10,480 Speaker 5: something greatest, not the first five or b MPs. We're 1272 00:59:10,560 --> 00:59:13,480 Speaker 5: rude to each other on Prime. I mean, it's a story, 1273 00:59:13,600 --> 00:59:18,920 Speaker 5: but it's not headline news. Just Winson's trolling. He actually 1274 00:59:19,000 --> 00:59:20,440 Speaker 5: does this to get reaction. 1275 00:59:21,000 --> 00:59:22,800 Speaker 3: Okay, thank you. I've since checked it with a pair 1276 00:59:22,840 --> 00:59:25,240 Speaker 3: of you from both sides, and I'm feeling like I'm 1277 00:59:25,280 --> 00:59:28,080 Speaker 3: in the right place now. I think Phil that the 1278 00:59:28,160 --> 00:59:30,000 Speaker 3: reason that we haven't got the four year to the 1279 00:59:30,080 --> 00:59:33,760 Speaker 3: four year electoral term referendum is because act completely overcomplicated 1280 00:59:33,800 --> 00:59:34,040 Speaker 3: the thing. 1281 00:59:34,080 --> 00:59:37,160 Speaker 12: What do you think, Oh, look, I'd go for the 1282 00:59:37,200 --> 00:59:40,480 Speaker 12: four year term. You know, I've witnessed enough time in 1283 00:59:40,600 --> 00:59:44,160 Speaker 12: Parliament to know that governments have the fault always is 1284 00:59:44,240 --> 00:59:46,320 Speaker 12: thinking for the short term. They're always thinking about the 1285 00:59:46,400 --> 00:59:48,640 Speaker 12: next election, which is only a couple of years away. 1286 00:59:49,440 --> 00:59:53,480 Speaker 12: I think four years would give us more sensible governments, 1287 00:59:53,680 --> 00:59:56,200 Speaker 12: but you'd have to have some balance in that because 1288 00:59:56,560 --> 00:59:59,120 Speaker 12: the three year term provides a bit of accountability. So 1289 00:59:59,560 --> 01:00:02,320 Speaker 12: I'd do something like, you know, put more opposition MP's 1290 01:00:02,320 --> 01:00:05,000 Speaker 12: as chairs of Select committee as a way of holding 1291 01:00:05,040 --> 01:00:08,120 Speaker 12: the government accountable, but still go for the long term 1292 01:00:08,200 --> 01:00:12,600 Speaker 12: planning this country desperately needs, which would be helped by 1293 01:00:12,840 --> 01:00:16,520 Speaker 12: a four year term. Look, I don't you know. I 1294 01:00:16,560 --> 01:00:19,200 Speaker 12: wouldn't give the government the choice of saying, oh we 1295 01:00:19,280 --> 01:00:21,960 Speaker 12: can maybe we'll go for four or we go for three. 1296 01:00:22,040 --> 01:00:23,880 Speaker 12: It shouldn't be up to the government to decide that 1297 01:00:24,200 --> 01:00:27,000 Speaker 12: it should be a set term unless there are very 1298 01:00:27,080 --> 01:00:30,600 Speaker 12: special circumstances. So I wouldn't make it variable as it 1299 01:00:30,680 --> 01:00:33,400 Speaker 12: appeared to be under the Act proposal. But I would 1300 01:00:33,480 --> 01:00:34,480 Speaker 12: go for the four year term. 1301 01:00:34,600 --> 01:00:36,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, and you'll, I know you, David, You'll be gutted 1302 01:00:36,640 --> 01:00:37,480 Speaker 3: that this is not happening. 1303 01:00:38,800 --> 01:00:41,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm a huge fan of a four year term. 1304 01:00:41,200 --> 01:00:44,080 Speaker 5: Having worked in Parliament and you know that the campaign 1305 01:00:44,280 --> 01:00:47,600 Speaker 5: and the next election starts almost straight away. You don't 1306 01:00:47,640 --> 01:00:51,360 Speaker 5: get much time for just let's get home with good government. 1307 01:00:51,440 --> 01:00:54,280 Speaker 5: But problem is what Act wanted was great, but they 1308 01:00:54,320 --> 01:00:57,520 Speaker 5: made it so complicated. Phil said, oh, maybe it'd be 1309 01:00:57,560 --> 01:01:00,560 Speaker 5: a three year term, sometimes sometimes a four years. No 1310 01:01:00,640 --> 01:01:03,240 Speaker 5: one was going to bat that. They had to come 1311 01:01:03,320 --> 01:01:06,800 Speaker 5: up with a simple proposal that the other parties could 1312 01:01:06,840 --> 01:01:09,880 Speaker 5: agree to, and you know I would have campaigned really 1313 01:01:10,000 --> 01:01:12,960 Speaker 5: hard to referend them for it. Again, to my interest 1314 01:01:13,000 --> 01:01:15,240 Speaker 5: in the pulse, I should support one year and that 1315 01:01:15,280 --> 01:01:18,720 Speaker 5: would be great commercial points. 1316 01:01:19,000 --> 01:01:21,120 Speaker 3: Shall you ever do any of this grocery tourism thing. 1317 01:01:22,720 --> 01:01:26,040 Speaker 12: I was in Aussie last week and I wandered in 1318 01:01:26,240 --> 01:01:28,240 Speaker 12: because we were we were staying with people, so I 1319 01:01:28,320 --> 01:01:30,240 Speaker 12: need to get some groceries. And it's it's kind of 1320 01:01:30,280 --> 01:01:33,080 Speaker 12: interesting just to see what prices are like in Australia 1321 01:01:33,160 --> 01:01:35,800 Speaker 12: compared to New Zealand and whether there are different things 1322 01:01:35,880 --> 01:01:37,960 Speaker 12: if I if I go to a place like France, 1323 01:01:38,040 --> 01:01:40,560 Speaker 12: I love to wander into a little delly and you know, 1324 01:01:40,840 --> 01:01:44,000 Speaker 12: buy some local produce, you know, bread or cheese, which 1325 01:01:44,040 --> 01:01:47,080 Speaker 12: is quite different in France than anywhere else. But it's 1326 01:01:47,160 --> 01:01:49,360 Speaker 12: not the purpose of traveling. It's just something that you 1327 01:01:49,480 --> 01:01:52,040 Speaker 12: might do. And more people are doing it because you know, 1328 01:01:52,480 --> 01:01:54,080 Speaker 12: when we stay we don't want to eat out at 1329 01:01:54,120 --> 01:01:56,240 Speaker 12: restaurants every night. We don't want to stay in hotels. 1330 01:01:56,480 --> 01:01:58,200 Speaker 12: We want to B and B or we want a 1331 01:01:58,200 --> 01:02:00,520 Speaker 12: little hostel that we can stay in. Reason were cheap, 1332 01:02:00,840 --> 01:02:02,240 Speaker 12: and from time to time we like to cook our 1333 01:02:02,280 --> 01:02:03,960 Speaker 12: own meals. So yeah, I do a bit of it. 1334 01:02:04,040 --> 01:02:05,640 Speaker 12: But it's not the purpose of the travel, is it. 1335 01:02:05,760 --> 01:02:07,640 Speaker 3: Apparently there are people who make this the purpose of 1336 01:02:07,680 --> 01:02:09,360 Speaker 3: the travel. David, have you ever done that? 1337 01:02:10,480 --> 01:02:13,040 Speaker 5: Not the purpose? But I did just have two weeks 1338 01:02:13,080 --> 01:02:17,040 Speaker 5: in Balley with the boys and the family and Oreo's there. 1339 01:02:17,160 --> 01:02:20,320 Speaker 5: A packet of them were three thousand Indonesian rubies. That's 1340 01:02:20,440 --> 01:02:24,880 Speaker 5: duty sents. We brought back twenty packets of warriors. 1341 01:02:27,800 --> 01:02:30,520 Speaker 3: For a packet of Did they stop you? Did they 1342 01:02:30,640 --> 01:02:32,640 Speaker 3: did they look because you know that I would have 1343 01:02:32,680 --> 01:02:35,000 Speaker 3: looked at that in the scanning thing and gone that's 1344 01:02:35,040 --> 01:02:35,960 Speaker 3: probably cocaine. 1345 01:02:37,600 --> 01:02:40,160 Speaker 12: Well we did, we did disclose them. 1346 01:02:40,200 --> 01:02:45,360 Speaker 5: We were carefully, but I think if the self sealed package, 1347 01:02:45,360 --> 01:02:47,920 Speaker 5: plus they saw the kids, that they probably thought Okay, 1348 01:02:48,040 --> 01:02:52,440 Speaker 5: this looks genuine here. Kids love biscuits. It's really the worst. 1349 01:02:52,640 --> 01:02:55,720 Speaker 5: Paying the thousand dollars to fly there just to save 1350 01:02:56,160 --> 01:02:58,560 Speaker 5: two dollars per packet a fair point. 1351 01:02:58,600 --> 01:03:00,040 Speaker 3: It doesn't it rip yundes When you get the you 1352 01:03:00,080 --> 01:03:01,720 Speaker 3: see how little people are paying for the stuff. You're 1353 01:03:01,760 --> 01:03:03,880 Speaker 3: paying so much more for guys, it's good to talk 1354 01:03:03,920 --> 01:03:06,440 Speaker 3: to you. That's David farraphil Goffer Hudle this evening, eight 1355 01:03:06,520 --> 01:03:07,080 Speaker 3: away from six. 1356 01:03:08,160 --> 01:03:11,400 Speaker 1: It's the Heather Duper c Allen Drive Full Show podcast 1357 01:03:11,520 --> 01:03:14,160 Speaker 1: on my Art Radio powered by news Talk zeb. 1358 01:03:16,240 --> 01:03:20,080 Speaker 3: Heather, this is re Erica playing the recorder before. I 1359 01:03:20,320 --> 01:03:22,919 Speaker 3: like the cut of Erica's jib and many other texts 1360 01:03:22,960 --> 01:03:24,680 Speaker 3: along those lines, so I thought it's worth mentioning. She's 1361 01:03:24,680 --> 01:03:28,200 Speaker 3: obviously onto something there. It doesn't feel Sam Dicky Rekins, 1362 01:03:28,240 --> 01:03:30,960 Speaker 3: it doesn't feel like there has been that much volatility 1363 01:03:31,000 --> 01:03:33,160 Speaker 3: in the markets lately. But actually if you look underneath 1364 01:03:33,200 --> 01:03:35,880 Speaker 3: the hood, there's a fair amount of volatility. So he 1365 01:03:35,960 --> 01:03:37,720 Speaker 3: will talk us through what he's seeing when he's with 1366 01:03:37,840 --> 01:03:40,880 Speaker 3: us at half past six. There is something in what 1367 01:03:41,440 --> 01:03:44,080 Speaker 3: in Chris Bishop's speech today that caught my eye that 1368 01:03:44,200 --> 01:03:45,760 Speaker 3: I thought I might draw to your attention. This is 1369 01:03:45,840 --> 01:03:49,760 Speaker 3: the cost of subsidizing people's accommodation, you know, basically accommodation welfare. 1370 01:03:50,480 --> 01:03:52,240 Speaker 3: When you add up all the ways that the government 1371 01:03:52,320 --> 01:03:56,680 Speaker 3: pays for housing assistance through emergency housing, the accommodation supplement, 1372 01:03:57,080 --> 01:03:59,880 Speaker 3: income related rents, all that kind of stuff, it costs 1373 01:04:00,120 --> 01:04:08,440 Speaker 3: US five billion dollars every single year. Now, according to 1374 01:04:08,520 --> 01:04:14,080 Speaker 3: Chris Bishop, that is fifteen new motorways or seven new hospitals. 1375 01:04:14,600 --> 01:04:17,680 Speaker 3: Every dollar, he said, spent on subsidizing rents is money 1376 01:04:17,720 --> 01:04:21,000 Speaker 3: that can't be spent improving our education system or fixing 1377 01:04:21,040 --> 01:04:23,040 Speaker 3: the health system. So you think about which of the 1378 01:04:23,120 --> 01:04:27,040 Speaker 3: two you'd rather have. You'd rather have chucking people being subsidized. 1379 01:04:27,080 --> 01:04:27,200 Speaker 13: Matter. 1380 01:04:27,200 --> 01:04:29,800 Speaker 3: I don't know what the alternative is. I suppose bringing 1381 01:04:29,800 --> 01:04:32,520 Speaker 3: down the cost of living but subsidizing people, or fifteen 1382 01:04:32,560 --> 01:04:36,240 Speaker 3: new new motorways every single year, it's four away from six. 1383 01:04:37,040 --> 01:04:39,680 Speaker 3: I'm going to cheer you up with a story about 1384 01:04:39,760 --> 01:04:42,080 Speaker 3: because I feel like sometimes all we ever talk about 1385 01:04:42,160 --> 01:04:44,160 Speaker 3: is how criminals get away with all the bad stuff. 1386 01:04:44,280 --> 01:04:46,600 Speaker 3: Here's a story about how criminals can actually make things 1387 01:04:46,640 --> 01:04:48,959 Speaker 3: worse for themselves and how they end up in jail 1388 01:04:49,120 --> 01:04:52,240 Speaker 3: being morons. There is a guy who has ended up 1389 01:04:52,280 --> 01:04:55,040 Speaker 3: in jail when he actually had avoided jail. So he 1390 01:04:55,200 --> 01:04:57,680 Speaker 3: was busted for stealing a car and injuring with intent, 1391 01:04:57,800 --> 01:04:59,760 Speaker 3: and so he went to court for it, and the judge, 1392 01:04:59,760 --> 01:05:03,120 Speaker 3: because he's a judge, was light with the sentence and 1393 01:05:03,240 --> 01:05:05,400 Speaker 3: he said to the guy yearning at the car and 1394 01:05:05,480 --> 01:05:07,120 Speaker 3: an engine, say, well, I'm putting words, and his man 1395 01:05:07,200 --> 01:05:09,400 Speaker 3: didn't actually say that, but he was like, they're home 1396 01:05:09,480 --> 01:05:11,520 Speaker 3: D for you, and so the guy was like, okay, cool, 1397 01:05:11,680 --> 01:05:13,880 Speaker 3: home D. So he said go straight home, and they're 1398 01:05:13,880 --> 01:05:15,560 Speaker 3: gonna come around and put the ankle bracelet on you 1399 01:05:15,640 --> 01:05:17,720 Speaker 3: for your home D. So the guy on his way 1400 01:05:17,720 --> 01:05:19,720 Speaker 3: home decides to stop with his Farno for a beer. 1401 01:05:20,120 --> 01:05:22,120 Speaker 3: The corrections officer turns up at his house at five, 1402 01:05:22,160 --> 01:05:24,360 Speaker 3: he's not there. Turns up agin at eight. He's not there. 1403 01:05:24,440 --> 01:05:26,920 Speaker 3: His brother was brother calls him, says, the corrections officers here. 1404 01:05:26,960 --> 01:05:28,360 Speaker 3: He says, our town. The office had to wait for 1405 01:05:28,440 --> 01:05:30,600 Speaker 3: thirty minutes, but he doesn't show up. But then the 1406 01:05:30,680 --> 01:05:33,080 Speaker 3: cops show up and he does a runner, runs through 1407 01:05:33,080 --> 01:05:34,640 Speaker 3: a gap in the fence, gaps it through to the 1408 01:05:34,680 --> 01:05:37,200 Speaker 3: neighbor's property, jumps over a fence, hurts his leg they 1409 01:05:37,280 --> 01:05:40,080 Speaker 3: catch him. He's now got himself two years in jail. 1410 01:05:40,360 --> 01:05:42,520 Speaker 3: He could have just gone home and got the ankle 1411 01:05:42,600 --> 01:05:47,520 Speaker 3: bracelet on, but instead two years in jail. Auckland Airports 1412 01:05:47,520 --> 01:05:48,200 Speaker 3: with US next. 1413 01:05:49,320 --> 01:05:59,920 Speaker 8: Five five brown five non brown as. 1414 01:06:01,800 --> 01:06:05,560 Speaker 1: What's up, what's down?

Revenue is 1424 01:06:32,320 --> 01:06:35,160 Speaker 3: up four percent nearly five hundred and twenty million dollars 1425 01:06:35,480 --> 01:06:37,120 Speaker 3: and the dividend that will be paid out of six 1426 01:06:37,160 --> 01:06:40,200 Speaker 3: and a half cents. Chief Executive Cuddy Hung and carry 1427 01:06:40,360 --> 01:06:44,120 Speaker 3: Hodi Hunganui joins us now Hi carry Hi right, So 1428 01:06:44,200 --> 01:06:46,120 Speaker 3: two percent passenger growth? Is that good? 1429 01:06:48,040 --> 01:06:48,200 Speaker 2: Yes? 1430 01:06:48,280 --> 01:06:50,560 Speaker 26: It is pleasing. You know, I think the word I'd 1431 01:06:50,640 --> 01:06:52,000 Speaker 26: use is momentum. 1432 01:06:51,680 --> 01:06:55,320 Speaker 3: Is building building, so where do we want to get 1433 01:06:55,360 --> 01:06:55,520 Speaker 3: it to. 1434 01:06:57,280 --> 01:07:00,200 Speaker 26: Well, if we step back and look to say, if 1435 01:07:00,240 --> 01:07:02,280 Speaker 26: we look over the summer period, we did see a 1436 01:07:02,400 --> 01:07:06,480 Speaker 26: four percent increase incapacity, which is great, but still only 1437 01:07:06,560 --> 01:07:10,400 Speaker 26: sitting at not quite ninety five percent of twenty nineteen levels. 1438 01:07:10,440 --> 01:07:13,160 Speaker 26: And I'd love to stop referring to twenty nineteen as 1439 01:07:13,200 --> 01:07:15,720 Speaker 26: the comparative, but at this point it is still a 1440 01:07:15,760 --> 01:07:18,960 Speaker 26: good reference point. Understand how that recovery is progressing. 1441 01:07:19,280 --> 01:07:21,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean we're still very much in catch up mode. 1442 01:07:21,800 --> 01:07:24,040 Speaker 3: How long do you reckon before we actually started clipsing 1443 01:07:24,120 --> 01:07:25,120 Speaker 3: that and get on the other side. 1444 01:07:26,880 --> 01:07:29,320 Speaker 26: Yeah, it's a great question. What we are seeing. Demand 1445 01:07:29,560 --> 01:07:32,800 Speaker 26: is certainly there. We're seeing percentage point five percentage point 1446 01:07:33,520 --> 01:07:37,240 Speaker 26: lift in December versus twenty nineteen on load factors, meaning 1447 01:07:37,280 --> 01:07:41,080 Speaker 26: that demand is upacing supply. You still have this global 1448 01:07:41,120 --> 01:07:44,800 Speaker 26: supply chain issue around jets, engines, et cetera that is 1449 01:07:45,200 --> 01:07:47,960 Speaker 26: subduing that. The flip side, though, is that is starting 1450 01:07:48,000 --> 01:07:50,040 Speaker 26: to wash through. You know, we were delighted to get 1451 01:07:50,080 --> 01:07:52,720 Speaker 26: tai airwas announcement of returning to the market, and part 1452 01:07:52,760 --> 01:07:55,960 Speaker 26: of that is as they are getting additional fleet they are. 1453 01:07:56,520 --> 01:07:58,840 Speaker 26: They were able to return to New Zealand, which is great. 1454 01:07:59,480 --> 01:08:01,800 Speaker 3: How things going between yourselves and any New Zealand. 1455 01:08:04,240 --> 01:08:06,960 Speaker 26: I think certainly we've talked about this before. They're on 1456 01:08:07,040 --> 01:08:08,360 Speaker 26: an operational basis. 1457 01:08:08,080 --> 01:08:10,520 Speaker 3: We have day to day a lot of activity. 1458 01:08:10,920 --> 01:08:12,360 Speaker 26: They had a tough week the other week with a 1459 01:08:12,400 --> 01:08:15,320 Speaker 26: strike and certainly we supported them with getting restarted out 1460 01:08:15,360 --> 01:08:17,920 Speaker 26: of that. So I think that's really strong. I think 1461 01:08:17,960 --> 01:08:21,200 Speaker 26: there's always points of difference when it comes to racing 1462 01:08:21,800 --> 01:08:26,000 Speaker 26: every five years, and so that's not unexpected and one 1463 01:08:26,000 --> 01:08:28,640 Speaker 26: of the natural tensions the airports and airlines tend to have. 1464 01:08:29,240 --> 01:08:29,880 Speaker 2: I mean, and. 1465 01:08:31,400 --> 01:08:33,800 Speaker 3: I feel as if it's not coincidence. What do you 1466 01:08:33,920 --> 01:08:36,160 Speaker 3: think that they've popped up at a select committee on 1467 01:08:36,320 --> 01:08:38,400 Speaker 3: the day that you report to the markets and they're 1468 01:08:38,400 --> 01:08:39,559 Speaker 3: complaining about your pricing. 1469 01:08:41,760 --> 01:08:43,280 Speaker 26: Well, I don't know as far as the calendar of 1470 01:08:43,360 --> 01:08:46,400 Speaker 26: flut committees and when they are sat, but what I 1471 01:08:46,640 --> 01:08:49,760 Speaker 26: can say is open airport. Certainly, we are focused on 1472 01:08:49,880 --> 01:08:52,920 Speaker 26: delivering capacity and resilience that you know New Zealander they're 1473 01:08:52,920 --> 01:08:55,960 Speaker 26: asking for, and I would encourage their New Zealand to 1474 01:08:56,000 --> 01:08:58,320 Speaker 26: do the same. Our country needs a strong and growing 1475 01:08:58,600 --> 01:09:04,439 Speaker 26: national airlines. But I think context is important and facts matter, 1476 01:09:04,560 --> 01:09:07,960 Speaker 26: that airports are not and shouldn't be the scapegoats for 1477 01:09:08,200 --> 01:09:10,120 Speaker 26: some of the challenges that they've been experiencing. 1478 01:09:10,240 --> 01:09:11,880 Speaker 3: Do you think I mean it seems to me the 1479 01:09:11,960 --> 01:09:16,040 Speaker 3: solution here in New Zealand's complaining says you're charging too much. 1480 01:09:16,680 --> 01:09:19,599 Speaker 3: You guys say you need the money for the renovation. 1481 01:09:20,280 --> 01:09:22,280 Speaker 3: Is there a middle ground here where maybe you just 1482 01:09:22,360 --> 01:09:24,160 Speaker 3: drop down slightly what you ask for? 1483 01:09:26,360 --> 01:09:27,920 Speaker 26: Well, I think there's a couple of things in that. 1484 01:09:28,040 --> 01:09:31,840 Speaker 26: How airports are user pays infrastructure. We're regulated to ensure 1485 01:09:31,920 --> 01:09:35,160 Speaker 26: we chair charge fair prices. I think yesterday or the 1486 01:09:35,240 --> 01:09:40,040 Speaker 26: day before, Infrastructure Commission talked about actually network infrastructure should 1487 01:09:40,080 --> 01:09:43,800 Speaker 26: be funded by user pays. Really again, I think we're 1488 01:09:43,840 --> 01:09:46,520 Speaker 26: mixing our drinks a little bit. When you look at airlines, 1489 01:09:46,560 --> 01:09:49,759 Speaker 26: the way they offer that manage cost increases is growth. 1490 01:09:50,560 --> 01:09:52,840 Speaker 26: And when you look at air New Zealand, for a 1491 01:09:52,880 --> 01:09:56,240 Speaker 26: whole bunch of reasons, they have had challenges with not growing, 1492 01:09:56,320 --> 01:09:59,760 Speaker 26: but they're bucking the trend. Globally and regionally, airlines are 1493 01:09:59,760 --> 01:10:03,000 Speaker 26: grow and that's how you manage your cost per unit. 1494 01:10:04,360 --> 01:10:07,200 Speaker 26: And so I think there's an element there that they 1495 01:10:07,280 --> 01:10:09,400 Speaker 26: need to look at is again, what are the reasons 1496 01:10:09,439 --> 01:10:12,720 Speaker 26: why their costs are increasing in their abilities to manage that? 1497 01:10:13,800 --> 01:10:16,120 Speaker 26: It isn't airports as the primary cause. 1498 01:10:16,200 --> 01:10:16,360 Speaker 2: You know. 1499 01:10:16,439 --> 01:10:19,120 Speaker 26: The second is we want them to grow too. Their 1500 01:10:19,160 --> 01:10:21,360 Speaker 26: position is hurting New Zealand and New Zealanders if they 1501 01:10:21,400 --> 01:10:24,360 Speaker 26: don't grow, So we want them to grow. But I 1502 01:10:24,439 --> 01:10:27,120 Speaker 26: do think questions should be asked more deeply about their 1503 01:10:27,160 --> 01:10:32,280 Speaker 26: cost base and their strategy, things like airfare monitoring and 1504 01:10:32,400 --> 01:10:37,000 Speaker 26: actually interrogating those elements. Airports are regulated and we have 1505 01:10:37,240 --> 01:10:41,439 Speaker 26: huge disclosure requirements, whereas for air New Zealand we just 1506 01:10:41,600 --> 01:10:44,439 Speaker 26: need to believe what they say. There isn't any form 1507 01:10:44,520 --> 01:10:49,519 Speaker 26: of disclosure requirements or validation, and I think that's a 1508 01:10:49,600 --> 01:10:52,240 Speaker 26: starting point to understand kind of what some of the 1509 01:10:52,320 --> 01:10:52,960 Speaker 26: core issues are. 1510 01:10:53,600 --> 01:10:56,080 Speaker 3: Speaking of the renovation, how's it looking, because either time 1511 01:10:56,120 --> 01:11:00,280 Speaker 3: I go there, it looks bloody brilliant. Frankly, well, it's 1512 01:11:00,280 --> 01:11:00,800 Speaker 3: coming along. 1513 01:11:01,120 --> 01:11:03,800 Speaker 26: It's coming along well actually, I mean we are on 1514 01:11:03,960 --> 01:11:06,960 Speaker 26: track to open it in twenty twenty nine. We've had 1515 01:11:07,000 --> 01:11:09,640 Speaker 26: some key milestones in this period, just pass that we 1516 01:11:09,800 --> 01:11:14,960 Speaker 26: reported on today, which is fantastic, and travelers will start 1517 01:11:15,040 --> 01:11:17,520 Speaker 26: to see that more directly as we start to transform 1518 01:11:17,640 --> 01:11:21,679 Speaker 26: the check in area from quarter two this year. Clearly 1519 01:11:21,760 --> 01:11:25,200 Speaker 26: we will do everything possible to minimize the impact and 1520 01:11:25,320 --> 01:11:27,439 Speaker 26: it will be fabulous on the other side, but there 1521 01:11:27,560 --> 01:11:30,320 Speaker 26: is going to be a period of disruption that we 1522 01:11:30,720 --> 01:11:31,560 Speaker 26: certainly appreciate that. 1523 01:11:31,680 --> 01:11:33,280 Speaker 3: When's the other side, by the way, when do we 1524 01:11:33,320 --> 01:11:35,240 Speaker 3: get to see the new Chicken experience. 1525 01:11:36,600 --> 01:11:39,520 Speaker 26: We'll all do because we don't want to reduce capacity, 1526 01:11:40,160 --> 01:11:43,360 Speaker 26: so we are taking in effect, we're renovating a zone 1527 01:11:43,960 --> 01:11:46,880 Speaker 26: at a time in the international check in area, and 1528 01:11:47,000 --> 01:11:49,560 Speaker 26: so that will take eighteen to twenty four months to 1529 01:11:49,640 --> 01:11:51,519 Speaker 26: kind of work through that so that we can maintain 1530 01:11:52,360 --> 01:11:56,439 Speaker 26: capacity throughout and ensure that travelers are having a seamless journey. 1531 01:11:56,520 --> 01:11:59,320 Speaker 26: So that will take up to twenty four months. And 1532 01:11:59,360 --> 01:12:02,479 Speaker 26: then I said we're on track for the integrated terminal 1533 01:12:02,520 --> 01:12:03,720 Speaker 26: to open in twenty twenty one. 1534 01:12:03,880 --> 01:12:05,720 Speaker 3: Good stuff, looking forward to it.

Ninety nine percent of them said yes. Unlike 1569 01:13:53,320 --> 01:13:57,960 Speaker 2: the turkeys, Heather, they voted for an early Christmas, so overwhelming, 1570 01:13:58,920 --> 01:14:02,759 Speaker 2: no surprise there. Four point two billion was the sale 1571 01:14:02,880 --> 01:14:07,960 Speaker 2: price of the mainland consumer brands to Luck to lease 1572 01:14:08,040 --> 01:14:11,160 Speaker 2: the French company.

And they're big boys, the big suppliers will 1578 01:14:26,520 --> 01:14:30,560 Speaker 2: get two to three million dollars, So we're expecting this 1579 01:14:30,720 --> 01:14:34,080 Speaker 2: to settle before March thirty one, and then the capital 1580 01:14:34,200 --> 01:14:37,560 Speaker 2: return will take place. If you're wondering, what's happening to 1581 01:14:37,680 --> 01:14:40,880 Speaker 2: the other billion that's left over. The balance of the 1582 01:14:40,920 --> 01:14:44,000 Speaker 2: sale proceeds will be retained by the co op to 1583 01:14:44,080 --> 01:14:48,639 Speaker 2: reinvest in its ingredients and food service business. But that's 1584 01:14:48,680 --> 01:14:51,880 Speaker 2: not the big question from fonterrahead. The big question, and 1585 01:14:51,960 --> 01:14:54,120 Speaker 2: I've got Myles Hurrel on my show tomorrow and I'll 1586 01:14:54,160 --> 01:14:56,400 Speaker 2: ask him this one is when is he going to 1587 01:14:56,600 --> 01:14:59,719 Speaker 2: raise the farm gate milk price? Remember just before Christmas 1588 01:15:00,080 --> 01:15:03,040 Speaker 2: they dropped it down to a midpoint of nine after 1589 01:15:03,760 --> 01:15:07,599 Speaker 2: nine GDT drops in a row. Well, we've had four 1590 01:15:07,880 --> 01:15:11,000 Speaker 2: really good actions to kick off twenty twenty six, so 1591 01:15:11,240 --> 01:15:14,320 Speaker 2: I would expect sooner rather than later for that midpoint, 1592 01:15:14,360 --> 01:15:17,439 Speaker 2: maybe to get up to nine dollars fifty Yep. Good. 1593 01:15:17,520 --> 01:15:20,439 Speaker 3: I like the sound of that. And speaking of good things, 1594 01:15:20,520 --> 01:15:21,519 Speaker 3: Zesbury is looking pretty good. 1595 01:15:21,560 --> 01:15:22,880 Speaker 1: Ah yeah. 1596 01:15:23,520 --> 01:15:26,840 Speaker 2: It's final forecast for the twenty five twenty six season 1597 01:15:26,920 --> 01:15:30,640 Speaker 2: before it gives its final numbers out record returns or 1598 01:15:31,160 --> 01:15:35,760 Speaker 2: record returns per hectare for all fruit categories. That's the 1599 01:15:35,800 --> 01:15:39,439 Speaker 2: whole lot. Now, the likes of Zesbury Green, organic green, 1600 01:15:39,960 --> 01:15:44,240 Speaker 2: and organic sun gold, they've gone up in price. All 1601 01:15:44,280 --> 01:15:47,360 Speaker 2: the rest have held their own. For example, like a 1602 01:15:47,479 --> 01:15:51,720 Speaker 2: tray of Zesbury Green, the good old Chinese gooseberry that 1603 01:15:51,800 --> 01:15:54,439 Speaker 2: we remember from years and years ago. Look that is 1604 01:15:55,000 --> 01:15:57,479 Speaker 2: now up to ten dollars per tray. That is great money. 1605 01:15:58,360 --> 01:16:01,840 Speaker 2: Sun gold the most popular, on eleven dollars seventy a tray. 1606 01:16:01,880 --> 01:16:07,120 Speaker 2: There's a significant premium four organic the likes the sun 1607 01:16:07,160 --> 01:16:09,600 Speaker 2: Gold it's another four dollars a tray, so up to 1608 01:16:09,680 --> 01:16:15,320 Speaker 2: about fifteen dollars eighty there. Interestingly, the per hectare returns 1609 01:16:15,680 --> 01:16:21,759 Speaker 2: for the organic versus the traditionally grown sun gold pretty 1610 01:16:21,840 --> 01:16:24,200 Speaker 2: much the same on a per hector basis, and that's 1611 01:16:24,240 --> 01:16:26,600 Speaker 2: because of the lower yield from the organic crop. So 1612 01:16:27,000 --> 01:16:30,400 Speaker 2: zespri have come out and said they've got a record 1613 01:16:30,439 --> 01:16:33,639 Speaker 2: crop of around two hundred and fifteen million trays to sell. 1614 01:16:33,680 --> 01:16:36,439 Speaker 2: They're going to have no problem doing that. Early estimates 1615 01:16:36,520 --> 01:16:39,719 Speaker 2: indicate there's another record crop of two hundred and twenty 1616 01:16:39,920 --> 01:16:42,639 Speaker 2: million for the season that we've just started picking. 1617 01:16:42,720 --> 01:16:42,880 Speaker 6: Now. 1618 01:16:43,000 --> 01:16:48,000 Speaker 2: The picking for the ruby red is underway now and 1619 01:16:48,200 --> 01:16:51,880 Speaker 2: Zesprey Chief executive Jason to Brak. He said they're trying 1620 01:16:51,920 --> 01:16:54,080 Speaker 2: to get their marketing team out there. They're going to 1621 01:16:54,160 --> 01:16:56,560 Speaker 2: sell a large proportion of the crop early in the 1622 01:16:56,680 --> 01:16:59,920 Speaker 2: season to help avoid the late season fruit quality costs 1623 01:17:00,560 --> 01:17:03,320 Speaker 2: that they experience with some gold last season. So look, 1624 01:17:03,400 --> 01:17:07,640 Speaker 2: Heather Kwi fruit going great. Guns are red meat at 1625 01:17:07,800 --> 01:17:11,840 Speaker 2: Record High's Dairy on the way back up.

The 1652 01:18:23,120 --> 01:18:28,400 Speaker 3: ban on the payWave surcharges is going absolutely nowhere. New 1653 01:18:28,520 --> 01:18:31,880 Speaker 3: Zealand First has said to reporters today it's going nowhere. 1654 01:18:32,200 --> 01:18:35,040 Speaker 3: Chris Luxen has said it's the government's taking a breather 1655 01:18:35,160 --> 01:18:37,320 Speaker 3: on it. He says they're still under consideration. We just 1656 01:18:37,360 --> 01:18:39,560 Speaker 3: want to make sure we understand all of the implications 1657 01:18:39,920 --> 01:18:42,759 Speaker 3: before we push the final button on it. And actors 1658 01:18:42,840 --> 01:18:45,920 Speaker 3: taking the credit basic claiming the credit for having killed 1659 01:18:45,960 --> 01:18:47,800 Speaker 3: the thing off. He said, I've listened to this is 1660 01:18:47,880 --> 01:18:50,040 Speaker 3: David Seymore. I've listened to small business people saying we've 1661 01:18:50,040 --> 01:18:52,120 Speaker 3: got we get a million bucks through our card system. 1662 01:18:52,400 --> 01:18:55,240 Speaker 3: A two percent fee would eat up to twenty thousand 1663 01:18:55,240 --> 01:18:58,439 Speaker 3: dollars our small business can't afford that. Now that I 1664 01:18:58,520 --> 01:19:01,880 Speaker 3: mean that that was always going to happen every time 1665 01:19:01,960 --> 01:19:03,880 Speaker 3: we had somebody on the show going no, this is 1666 01:19:03,920 --> 01:19:05,280 Speaker 3: a great idea, I can't wait for the band, It's 1667 01:19:05,320 --> 01:19:07,479 Speaker 3: going to be awesome. Would just be like, what is 1668 01:19:07,520 --> 01:19:10,400 Speaker 3: it that you can't see here? This was always going 1669 01:19:10,479 --> 01:19:13,160 Speaker 3: to eat into the margins of small business. We are 1670 01:19:13,280 --> 01:19:16,439 Speaker 3: in an election year, it shouldn't happen like that would 1671 01:19:16,439 --> 01:19:19,400 Speaker 3: be the dumbest thing to turn off small business voters 1672 01:19:19,479 --> 01:19:22,559 Speaker 3: during election year. Yet again, yet again. If you need 1673 01:19:22,680 --> 01:19:24,920 Speaker 3: another example of why we need to stick with a 1674 01:19:25,000 --> 01:19:29,160 Speaker 3: three year term, it's this. Another stupid idea killed because 1675 01:19:29,200 --> 01:19:30,680 Speaker 3: it's election year six twenty five. 1676 01:19:31,280 --> 01:19:34,040 Speaker 1: There's no business like show business. 1677 01:19:37,760 --> 01:19:40,479 Speaker 3: If you don't like politics in your music, this is 1678 01:19:40,520 --> 01:19:42,840 Speaker 3: not gonna surprise you. You're not gonna like U two's 1679 01:19:42,920 --> 01:19:45,880 Speaker 3: latest offering.

The song 1694 01:20:29,320 --> 01:20:31,560 Speaker 3: called Yours Eternally is written from the perspective of a 1695 01:20:31,640 --> 01:20:34,200 Speaker 3: Ukrainian soldier on the front lines writing letters to home. 1696 01:20:35,520 --> 01:20:38,240 Speaker 3: Is this the same song? Still hans? What is still 1697 01:20:38,280 --> 01:20:42,920 Speaker 3: the same song? It's very noisy, isn't it. Guitarist The 1698 01:20:43,040 --> 01:20:45,919 Speaker 3: Edge has spoken about the new PEP and a fan magazine. 1699 01:20:46,040 --> 01:20:47,960 Speaker 3: He says, we believe in a world where borders are 1700 01:20:48,000 --> 01:20:50,439 Speaker 3: not raised by force, where culture, language and memory are 1701 01:20:50,479 --> 01:20:52,599 Speaker 3: not silenced by fear, where the dignity of a people 1702 01:20:52,680 --> 01:20:55,479 Speaker 3: is not negotiable. And if you're thinking, wow, I need 1703 01:20:55,560 --> 01:20:59,000 Speaker 3: more than six protests songs. Don't worry. They confirmed that 1704 01:20:59,080 --> 01:21:01,320 Speaker 3: there's a brand new album coming out later this year. 1705 01:21:01,680 --> 01:21:05,560 Speaker 3: It'll be almost entirely a different product to the new EP. Apparently, 1706 01:21:05,680 --> 01:21:09,599 Speaker 3: the EP songs are songs of dismay and lamentation, whereas 1707 01:21:09,680 --> 01:21:11,879 Speaker 3: the new album will be filled with songs of celebration. 1708 01:21:11,960 --> 01:21:13,840 Speaker 3: With the carnival vibe gone. Then ant's put it. 1709 01:21:13,880 --> 01:21:17,400 Speaker 7: Up America Wila. 1710 01:21:18,520 --> 01:21:20,240 Speaker 8: I guess that's people love. 1711 01:21:20,160 --> 01:21:26,559 Speaker 17: Them certainly sounds like a You Two song? 1712 01:21:26,600 --> 01:21:28,639 Speaker 22: Is I mean? 1713 01:21:28,680 --> 01:21:31,120 Speaker 3: I love You two so much that I'm probably just 1714 01:21:31,160 --> 01:21:33,040 Speaker 3: going to put up with ekkerfuffle on this one, to 1715 01:21:33,120 --> 01:21:36,479 Speaker 3: be honest.

But yeah, I can't 1718 01:21:42,720 --> 01:21:44,760 Speaker 3: say that that's a strong line people of the lie. 1719 01:21:45,720 --> 01:21:48,160 Speaker 3: It's a bit lame, isn't it Anyway?

Hither. I'm stuck in traffic around Oriental Bay. 1729 01:22:36,680 --> 01:22:39,400 Speaker 3: I've seen six Crown cars headed the other way towards 1730 01:22:39,439 --> 01:22:41,960 Speaker 3: the airport. Next time you have Chris Bishop on the show, 1731 01:22:42,000 --> 01:22:43,920 Speaker 3: can you ask him why the MPs can't ride here 1732 01:22:43,960 --> 01:22:46,000 Speaker 3: to the airport to cut down on the traffic congestion. 1733 01:22:48,280 --> 01:22:50,880 Speaker 3: Will do twenty four away from seven. 1734 01:22:51,080 --> 01:22:52,280 Speaker 1: Now, Heather duplicy. 1735 01:22:52,360 --> 01:22:55,080 Speaker 3: Alan markets may not seem to have been overly volatile 1736 01:22:55,120 --> 01:22:57,840 Speaker 3: in recent weeks. Most markets are at or near all 1737 01:22:57,920 --> 01:23:00,960 Speaker 3: time highs, but apparently that's masking an unusual amount of 1738 01:23:01,720 --> 01:23:05,040 Speaker 3: volatility below the surface. Samdicki from Fisher Farns has been 1739 01:23:05,120 --> 01:23:07,040 Speaker 3: watching all of this carrying on and he's. 1740 01:23:06,920 --> 01:23:07,280 Speaker 2: With us now. 1741 01:23:07,360 --> 01:23:08,920 Speaker 7: Hi, Sam, good evening. 1742 01:23:09,280 --> 01:23:10,000 Speaker 22: So what is going on? 1743 01:23:10,080 --> 01:23:12,120 Speaker 3: What are you seeing moving fast below the surface? 1744 01:23:13,439 --> 01:23:16,720 Speaker 16: Yes, the duck analogy definitely springs to mind or calm 1745 01:23:16,760 --> 01:23:20,519 Speaker 16: on the surface, but paddling like crazy underneath. So global 1746 01:23:20,560 --> 01:23:22,840 Speaker 16: stock markets are up a couple percent this year at 1747 01:23:22,880 --> 01:23:25,400 Speaker 16: all time highs as you said, but underneath the hood, 1748 01:23:25,400 --> 01:23:28,720 Speaker 16: you've got sectors like software companies down twenty percent, and 1749 01:23:29,280 --> 01:23:31,080 Speaker 16: on the other hand, you've got energy companies and more 1750 01:23:31,120 --> 01:23:35,200 Speaker 16: cycnical companies up up twenty percent. And that's a forty 1751 01:23:35,439 --> 01:23:38,920 Speaker 16: percent spread between sectors and what sex weeks of training 1752 01:23:39,000 --> 01:23:41,479 Speaker 16: so far this year, So that is extraordinary, that sort 1753 01:23:41,520 --> 01:23:42,160 Speaker 16: of dispersion. 1754 01:23:43,040 --> 01:23:43,960 Speaker 3: Why is this happening. 1755 01:23:45,680 --> 01:23:49,480 Speaker 16: There's some extreme greed and fear going on, and interestingly 1756 01:23:49,520 --> 01:23:52,799 Speaker 16: it's mostly fear right now, which is ironic given markets 1757 01:23:52,840 --> 01:23:53,759 Speaker 16: at all time highs. 1758 01:23:53,840 --> 01:23:56,200 Speaker 1: So you got two sides of that fear trade. 1759 01:23:56,280 --> 01:24:00,720 Speaker 16: That the primary narrative driving this is the expanding list 1760 01:24:00,800 --> 01:24:03,640 Speaker 16: of so called AI losers. So it started well with 1761 01:24:04,360 --> 01:24:07,240 Speaker 16: kind of last year, some weakes software companies been considered 1762 01:24:07,320 --> 01:24:11,120 Speaker 16: losers that AI could replicate or at least do more cheaply, 1763 01:24:12,400 --> 01:24:16,960 Speaker 16: to what people now call calling the soft apocalypse. Anything 1764 01:24:17,040 --> 01:24:19,320 Speaker 16: with software in its name has been hammered, and that's 1765 01:24:19,360 --> 01:24:23,040 Speaker 16: now broadened out to any company that really sells human 1766 01:24:23,160 --> 01:24:25,560 Speaker 16: time is now caught up in this mailstream. 1767 01:24:26,560 --> 01:24:29,040 Speaker 1: And the other side of that trade. 1768 01:24:28,920 --> 01:24:31,560 Speaker 16: Is investors are piling into anything it appears to be 1769 01:24:31,720 --> 01:24:35,800 Speaker 16: AI immune that AI can't replicate or weaken its moat 1770 01:24:35,960 --> 01:24:40,160 Speaker 16: so hard a set names like industrials, energy, heavy equipment, commodities, 1771 01:24:40,720 --> 01:24:43,400 Speaker 16: and bricks and mortar retailers, And a good example there 1772 01:24:43,479 --> 01:24:47,000 Speaker 16: is Walmart. It's your bog standard bricks and mortar retailer 1773 01:24:47,439 --> 01:24:50,360 Speaker 16: that AI allegedly can't replace, and that's up twenty percent 1774 01:24:50,439 --> 01:24:52,599 Speaker 16: this year. So that's the other side the fear trade. 1775 01:24:53,040 --> 01:24:55,240 Speaker 3: That's interesting stuff. So what does it mean for investors 1776 01:24:55,439 --> 01:24:56,320 Speaker 3: who are looking at all of. 1777 01:24:56,320 --> 01:25:00,040 Speaker 16: This, Well, that's six weeks. That's pretty extreme dispersion. And 1778 01:25:00,040 --> 01:25:02,000 Speaker 16: when we see moves this extreme, it means there's some 1779 01:25:02,120 --> 01:25:05,280 Speaker 16: exciting opportunities out there. So swept up in this AI 1780 01:25:05,400 --> 01:25:08,760 Speaker 16: loser trade companies like Amazon that have spent a bit 1781 01:25:08,800 --> 01:25:11,439 Speaker 16: too much on AI investments. You and I spoke last 1782 01:25:11,520 --> 01:25:13,800 Speaker 16: year about the fact that rubble would meet the road 1783 01:25:13,880 --> 01:25:16,120 Speaker 16: this year on those companies having to show a return 1784 01:25:17,000 --> 01:25:19,760 Speaker 16: plus the market as worried AI agents will replicate or 1785 01:25:19,840 --> 01:25:24,599 Speaker 16: at least significantly weaken Amazon's e commerce business. For context, 1786 01:25:24,720 --> 01:25:27,920 Speaker 16: Amazon and Walmart are both retailers. Walmart's growing less than 1787 01:25:28,040 --> 01:25:30,400 Speaker 16: half as fast as Amazon, but it's trading on more 1788 01:25:30,479 --> 01:25:35,560 Speaker 16: than twice evaluation multiple and those sort of extreme distiications 1789 01:25:35,600 --> 01:25:37,479 Speaker 16: are littered throughout markets at the moment. 1790 01:25:38,000 --> 01:25:39,559 Speaker 3: Sam, it's good to talk to you. Thanks, man, will 1791 01:25:39,560 --> 01:25:41,040 Speaker 3: talk to you in a week's time. That Sam Dicky 1792 01:25:41,360 --> 01:25:43,559 Speaker 3: official funds right now.

Those suck suck live 1801 01:26:04,880 --> 01:26:08,320 Speaker 3: a really suck. Remember I went to that concert and 1802 01:26:08,439 --> 01:26:10,559 Speaker 3: where was a little bit of an outside of Queenstown 1803 01:26:10,560 --> 01:26:15,040 Speaker 3: where they drink the wine? I can't remember either. Maybe 1804 01:26:15,080 --> 01:26:17,679 Speaker 3: I'm still suffering from the hangover of that anyway. Yeah, 1805 01:26:17,720 --> 01:26:19,679 Speaker 3: and Jim sat on stage. He just sat on stage 1806 01:26:19,720 --> 01:26:22,200 Speaker 3: being just the laziest man you've ever seen. So if 1807 01:26:22,200 --> 01:26:24,519 Speaker 3: you see Simple Minds, just go no, thank you very much, 1808 01:26:24,600 --> 01:26:27,080 Speaker 3: not going to go watch that now. The drugs case 1809 01:26:27,120 --> 01:26:31,679 Speaker 3: involving John Olomo's brother John Lomo is fascinating if only 1810 01:26:31,760 --> 01:26:34,000 Speaker 3: because it gives you an insight into how these guys 1811 01:26:34,040 --> 01:26:35,600 Speaker 3: get the drugs into the country. I mean, this is 1812 01:26:35,960 --> 01:26:38,519 Speaker 3: it probably is exactly how you expect it works, but 1813 01:26:38,600 --> 01:26:40,639 Speaker 3: they've laid it out for us in the court documents. 1814 01:26:41,000 --> 01:26:43,360 Speaker 3: So what was going on was John was working at FedEx. 1815 01:26:44,160 --> 01:26:47,720 Speaker 3: He was working at the East Tamaki facility as like 1816 01:26:47,800 --> 01:26:50,559 Speaker 3: a ramp but a ramp agent, and so he would 1817 01:26:50,560 --> 01:26:52,640 Speaker 3: obviously get all the parcels as they arrived. So these 1818 01:26:52,720 --> 01:26:54,800 Speaker 3: parcels would come in and they'd be labeled as like 1819 01:26:54,960 --> 01:26:59,839 Speaker 3: really innocuous things like organic bedding or yoga mat or books, 1820 01:27:00,240 --> 01:27:04,040 Speaker 3: heating packs, multi purpose table coffee, like a lot of 1821 01:27:04,080 --> 01:27:06,200 Speaker 3: that is so boring and you wouldn't even bother to 1822 01:27:06,240 --> 01:27:09,160 Speaker 3: look at it anyway. So the parcels come in, he's 1823 01:27:09,200 --> 01:27:10,880 Speaker 3: there as the ramp agent. So what does he do. 1824 01:27:11,000 --> 01:27:12,640 Speaker 3: He grabs the parcels. He knows what he's looking for, 1825 01:27:12,720 --> 01:27:15,760 Speaker 3: grabs the parcels, takes the parcels away. He then meets 1826 01:27:15,800 --> 01:27:18,840 Speaker 3: his co accused, who's a chap called Cela Viva. Now 1827 01:27:19,200 --> 01:27:21,839 Speaker 3: Cela Iva used to work in FedEx, but then obviously 1828 01:27:21,880 --> 01:27:24,240 Speaker 3: stopped working there. So John started doing all the stuff 1829 01:27:24,320 --> 01:27:27,040 Speaker 3: for him, he'd take the parcels to sella Cela would 1830 01:27:27,040 --> 01:27:29,000 Speaker 3: get in that Seala would take the drugs out, and 1831 01:27:29,080 --> 01:27:31,519 Speaker 3: then they would put the package back together, basically put 1832 01:27:31,520 --> 01:27:33,919 Speaker 3: the back of the package back into the freight process. 1833 01:27:34,280 --> 01:27:37,200 Speaker 3: The trouble for them, of course, is that the investigators 1834 01:27:37,240 --> 01:27:40,000 Speaker 3: from the National Organized Crime Group and Customs were watching, 1835 01:27:40,320 --> 01:27:43,360 Speaker 3: and they were using GPS tracking and surveillance and camera 1836 01:27:43,400 --> 01:27:46,040 Speaker 3: footage and stuff like they were filming covertly. They knew 1837 01:27:46,080 --> 01:27:47,439 Speaker 3: what was going on, they just needed to be able 1838 01:27:47,479 --> 01:27:49,680 Speaker 3: to prove it. So afterwards, once they were back in 1839 01:27:49,720 --> 01:27:52,919 Speaker 3: the freight process, these dudes would obviously from the investigator, 1840 01:27:52,920 --> 01:27:54,720 Speaker 3: would get hold of the packages themselves have a look 1841 01:27:54,720 --> 01:27:57,040 Speaker 3: what's going on on the inside. In one instance, a 1842 01:27:57,080 --> 01:28:00,400 Speaker 3: package that said it was clothing actually had new and 1843 01:28:00,680 --> 01:28:03,280 Speaker 3: used clothing inside two blocks of a four paper and 1844 01:28:03,439 --> 01:28:05,680 Speaker 3: was about eleven CAGs less than it was supposed to 1845 01:28:05,720 --> 01:28:07,439 Speaker 3: be in the declared weight. That'll be the drugs that 1846 01:28:07,479 --> 01:28:12,400 Speaker 3: were removed. Another consignment was described as visually damaged, indicating 1847 01:28:12,439 --> 01:28:15,040 Speaker 3: it had been open prior to the customs examination process. 1848 01:28:15,320 --> 01:28:16,879 Speaker 3: So then they had a look at the bank accounts. 1849 01:28:17,200 --> 01:28:20,080 Speaker 3: About three hundred and sixty thousand dollars was deposited into 1850 01:28:20,120 --> 01:28:23,200 Speaker 3: a wise account. In another bank account, there was twenty 1851 01:28:23,240 --> 01:28:26,720 Speaker 3: four thousand dollars, which was twelve cash deposits, and then 1852 01:28:26,760 --> 01:28:29,400 Speaker 3: there was cash money at Vivi's address as well. Now 1853 01:28:29,400 --> 01:28:31,599 Speaker 3: I don't know about you, but I mean twelve cash 1854 01:28:31,680 --> 01:28:34,320 Speaker 3: deposits totaling twenty four thousand dollars means they were getting 1855 01:28:34,320 --> 01:28:36,559 Speaker 3: paid two thousand dollars a pop. No, thanks very much. 1856 01:28:36,960 --> 01:28:38,400 Speaker 3: I don't reckon that I would be doing it for 1857 01:28:38,439 --> 01:28:40,080 Speaker 3: two thousand dollars a pop. Like it would take a 1858 01:28:40,080 --> 01:28:41,559 Speaker 3: hell of a lot more money if you were going 1859 01:28:41,600 --> 01:28:44,559 Speaker 3: to bend me. Because these guys are now facing maximum 1860 01:28:44,640 --> 01:28:47,920 Speaker 3: penalties of up to eight years imprisonment on the drug charges. 1861 01:28:48,360 --> 01:28:50,960 Speaker 3: You will remember why this is interesting is if you've 1862 01:28:50,960 --> 01:28:53,559 Speaker 3: been following the Crime Task Force. Remember the Crime Task 1863 01:28:53,640 --> 01:28:55,519 Speaker 3: Force was organized and asked to do a bunch of 1864 01:28:55,560 --> 01:28:57,559 Speaker 3: reports and I think they might have done done six 1865 01:28:57,640 --> 01:28:59,880 Speaker 3: in the end. Having a look at what they organized crime, 1866 01:29:00,080 --> 01:29:02,880 Speaker 3: like where our vulnerabilities were when it came to organized crime, 1867 01:29:03,120 --> 01:29:06,200 Speaker 3: And some of it was corruption of officials, but some 1868 01:29:06,360 --> 01:29:08,479 Speaker 3: of it was definitely at the border. They were like, 1869 01:29:08,560 --> 01:29:11,000 Speaker 3: the border is where we are vulnerable. This is a 1870 01:29:11,080 --> 01:29:13,360 Speaker 3: case of exactly that isn't it seventeen away from seven? 1871 01:29:14,800 --> 01:29:17,439 Speaker 1: Ever, it's to do with money. It matters to you. 1872 01:29:17,920 --> 01:29:22,000 Speaker 1: The Business Hour with Heather Duplicy, Allen and Mas insurance 1873 01:29:22,040 --> 01:29:26,160 Speaker 1: and investments, your futures in good hands, News talks. I'd 1874 01:29:26,240 --> 01:29:26,960 Speaker 1: be hither. 1875 01:29:27,040 --> 01:29:29,120 Speaker 3: It was the Gibston Valley, quite right, and thank you 1876 01:29:29,280 --> 01:29:31,760 Speaker 3: very much. And while we're on that subject, let me 1877 01:29:31,880 --> 01:29:34,519 Speaker 3: just tell you Texas you want to see Texas life. 1878 01:29:34,720 --> 01:29:37,200 Speaker 3: That was awesome. Card it to seven. End of Brady 1879 01:29:37,320 --> 01:29:41,160 Speaker 3: UK correspondence with us Allouenda, Hello, how are you? I'm 1880 01:29:41,240 --> 01:29:43,320 Speaker 3: very well, thank you mate. How many UK police forces 1881 01:29:43,360 --> 01:29:45,160 Speaker 3: are now investigating the Epstein files. 1882 01:29:46,240 --> 01:29:50,120 Speaker 7: We're up to nine police forces now across the country 1883 01:29:50,240 --> 01:29:53,120 Speaker 7: the latest Police Scotland. A lot of them are looking 1884 01:29:53,160 --> 01:29:57,240 Speaker 7: at airports in their jurisdiction, their geographic areas. So we've 1885 01:29:57,320 --> 01:30:02,000 Speaker 7: got stunts that airport looting, Airport, Edinburgh Airport. I got 1886 01:30:02,080 --> 01:30:04,760 Speaker 7: told last week by a senior police figure that Epstein's 1887 01:30:04,840 --> 01:30:08,080 Speaker 7: jet landed in the UK on ninety occasions in about 1888 01:30:08,080 --> 01:30:11,040 Speaker 7: a year and a half. And police are not convinced 1889 01:30:11,120 --> 01:30:13,240 Speaker 7: he was on the jet every single time, but they 1890 01:30:13,280 --> 01:30:16,360 Speaker 7: are convinced that young girls were, So where were those 1891 01:30:16,439 --> 01:30:19,760 Speaker 7: girls going they were clearly being trafficked. Where they seeing 1892 01:30:19,840 --> 01:30:23,080 Speaker 7: members being sent to members of the royal family? Perhaps 1893 01:30:23,640 --> 01:30:27,240 Speaker 7: that's the question. So it's a very very significant investigation 1894 01:30:27,360 --> 01:30:28,320 Speaker 7: into the Epstein files. 1895 01:30:28,320 --> 01:30:31,120 Speaker 3: Now, so is this an investigation with a view of 1896 01:30:31,760 --> 01:30:34,639 Speaker 3: tightening the noose around Andrew? Is that what it's about? 1897 01:30:35,360 --> 01:30:39,839 Speaker 7: Absolutely? And others whoever else was involved. So it's very interesting. 1898 01:30:39,960 --> 01:30:43,040 Speaker 7: Surrey Police, which is a force area just south of London, 1899 01:30:43,760 --> 01:30:47,679 Speaker 7: they are now investigating an allegation of abuse against a minor, 1900 01:30:47,880 --> 01:30:49,519 Speaker 7: so that would be a girl under the age of 1901 01:30:49,640 --> 01:30:54,360 Speaker 7: sixteen in the nineties and they're calling on any member 1902 01:30:54,360 --> 01:30:57,200 Speaker 7: of the public with information to come forward. Several other 1903 01:30:57,320 --> 01:30:59,560 Speaker 7: forces have said that as well, And I think what 1904 01:30:59,640 --> 01:31:03,000 Speaker 7: we're going to see is several prongs to this investigation 1905 01:31:03,200 --> 01:31:06,960 Speaker 7: or investigations plural. We will see the financial reports, the 1906 01:31:07,040 --> 01:31:10,880 Speaker 7: government reports that were allegedly forwarded by email by Andrew 1907 01:31:11,040 --> 01:31:14,600 Speaker 7: to Epstein, and then the allegations of sexual abuse and 1908 01:31:14,640 --> 01:31:18,040 Speaker 7: trafficking as well. So this is going to run for years. 1909 01:31:18,320 --> 01:31:20,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, I can see that, all right. Listen, what's the 1910 01:31:20,320 --> 01:31:22,760 Speaker 3: plan for celebrating David Edinburghs one hundred years? 1911 01:31:24,000 --> 01:31:26,960 Speaker 7: The BBC have just announced a full special week of 1912 01:31:27,120 --> 01:31:30,720 Speaker 7: programs in May, a new documentary series. So they're going 1913 01:31:30,800 --> 01:31:32,720 Speaker 7: to have some material which will be the best of 1914 01:31:32,800 --> 01:31:35,799 Speaker 7: the old stuff and everything that just blew people's minds. 1915 01:31:35,880 --> 01:31:38,200 Speaker 7: You know, when the world was much smaller, we didn't 1916 01:31:38,200 --> 01:31:40,160 Speaker 7: travel as much. We certainly didn't go to some of 1917 01:31:40,160 --> 01:31:42,200 Speaker 7: the places Atenburgh was going to in the sixties and 1918 01:31:42,280 --> 01:31:46,200 Speaker 7: seventies and how we brought wildlife into people's living rooms. 1919 01:31:46,479 --> 01:31:48,959 Speaker 7: There's going to be a new series about English gardens 1920 01:31:49,040 --> 01:31:52,840 Speaker 7: and English counties and the wildlife therein and then they're 1921 01:31:52,840 --> 01:31:55,160 Speaker 7: going to have a big kind of special live broadcast 1922 01:31:55,240 --> 01:31:58,639 Speaker 7: event from the Royal Albert Hall with the BBC Concert 1923 01:31:58,760 --> 01:32:00,880 Speaker 7: Orchestra as well. It's just spectacular. 1924 01:32:01,120 --> 01:32:02,800 Speaker 3: So apparently you tried to call him once but you 1925 01:32:02,880 --> 01:32:03,479 Speaker 3: got the wrong guy. 1926 01:32:05,080 --> 01:32:08,240 Speaker 7: Yes, so day one as a reporter. This is quite 1927 01:32:08,280 --> 01:32:10,880 Speaker 7: funny and very embarrassing to tell, but this happened word 1928 01:32:11,000 --> 01:32:13,880 Speaker 7: for word. I was straight out of university and straight 1929 01:32:13,960 --> 01:32:17,400 Speaker 7: into a job as a cub reporter at the Press Association, 1930 01:32:17,520 --> 01:32:20,679 Speaker 7: which still is a news agency, and I was given 1931 01:32:20,680 --> 01:32:24,160 Speaker 7: a press release about this new project down in Cornwall, 1932 01:32:24,439 --> 01:32:27,800 Speaker 7: an ecological project called the Eden Project, and the news 1933 01:32:27,920 --> 01:32:30,760 Speaker 7: editor said to me, oh, just ring up a ring 1934 01:32:30,880 --> 01:32:34,519 Speaker 7: up a famous wildlife guy and get some quotes. So 1935 01:32:34,600 --> 01:32:36,280 Speaker 7: I went back to my desk and I sat down, 1936 01:32:36,360 --> 01:32:39,439 Speaker 7: and then I thought famous wildlife guy, famous the wildlife guy. 1937 01:32:39,720 --> 01:32:43,040 Speaker 7: So he then came back and he said ring Attenborough. 1938 01:32:44,040 --> 01:32:46,400 Speaker 7: So I looked on the computer system and this would 1939 01:32:46,400 --> 01:32:50,240 Speaker 7: before mobile phones, and sure enough they had a landline 1940 01:32:50,320 --> 01:32:52,960 Speaker 7: number for a mister Attenborough.

And then I actually met David 1948 01:33:17,320 --> 01:33:19,320 Speaker 7: years later. I told him the story. He could not 1949 01:33:19,400 --> 01:33:22,439 Speaker 7: stop laughing and he said, you became a reporter after all, 1950 01:33:22,800 --> 01:33:23,280 Speaker 7: and I did. 1951 01:33:23,680 --> 01:33:23,840 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1952 01:33:23,920 --> 01:33:26,040 Speaker 3: They goes to show don't judge yourself by what you 1953 01:33:26,120 --> 01:33:27,960 Speaker 3: do on day one at stay how that met us? 1954 01:33:28,160 --> 01:33:31,080 Speaker 3: But didn't didn't Princess and just basically do something similar. 1955 01:33:32,280 --> 01:33:34,720 Speaker 7: Yes, So this is a great story England, Scotland and 1956 01:33:34,720 --> 01:33:37,040 Speaker 7: the rugby at the weekend.
