1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:02,640
Speaker 1: Into Brady UK correspondence with us now into Hello.

2
00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:05,240
Speaker 2: Hello, Hea, They're great to speak to you, Linda.

3
00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:06,960
Speaker 1: Did you manage to get tickets to Oasis?

4
00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:10,879
Speaker 2: Ha? No, I'm still waiting, but I know what will

5
00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:14,240
Speaker 2: happen A week beforehand. Someone will get sick or someone's

6
00:00:14,280 --> 00:00:16,880
Speaker 2: friend won't be able to make it, and Oasis tickets

7
00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:19,320
Speaker 2: will miraculously appear. So I'm not panicking.

8
00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:21,240
Speaker 1: I got tickets to Oasis today.

9
00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:24,279
Speaker 2: Oh, well done. You You need to come down here.

10
00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:27,280
Speaker 1: Come down to the southern part of the world, because

11
00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:31,400
Speaker 1: it's like easy peasy down here, no problem, bring it on.

12
00:00:31,560 --> 00:00:33,760
Speaker 2: But as I sit here in West London, as we

13
00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:36,320
Speaker 2: head into winter, the thoughts of some time in New

14
00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:37,680
Speaker 2: Zealand is very appealing.

15
00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:40,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, and we only paid one hundred and seventy five quid,

16
00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:41,599
Speaker 1: so that's not even the bad.

17
00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:45,800
Speaker 2: Well done, well yeah, I mean they clearly haven't fleeced

18
00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:47,920
Speaker 2: people in New Zealand like they have done in England

19
00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:48,479
Speaker 2: and Ireland.

20
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:51,280
Speaker 1: You guys, you guys got all the hype, in the

21
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:53,239
Speaker 1: excitement and you got ripped off and then by the

22
00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:55,400
Speaker 1: settled down. The only trouble is they sittled down by

23
00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:58,000
Speaker 1: the time they got here. The only trouble, of course, Inda,

24
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:00,480
Speaker 1: is there's no guarantee that thus all going to be

25
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:02,200
Speaker 1: performing by the time they get down here, do you

26
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:02,720
Speaker 1: know what I mean?

27
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, I give it about a week actually, in fairness,

28
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:08,119
Speaker 2: we'll see, we'll see. Hi.

29
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 1: So Kiez rolled out the big guns, is he?

30
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:13,480
Speaker 2: Yes? So there's a big dinner last night at the

31
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,280
Speaker 2: Guildhall in London for all these business leaders from all

32
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:18,440
Speaker 2: over the world. He's trying to get them to invest

33
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:21,720
Speaker 2: in the UK and trying to drum up growth really

34
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:24,800
Speaker 2: for the economy because it badly needs it. They had

35
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,680
Speaker 2: British beef, there was a speech by the Prime Minister,

36
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:31,880
Speaker 2: there was music by Elton John in person, and King

37
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:35,120
Speaker 2: Charles turned up for dinner as well. So quite an

38
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:39,280
Speaker 2: impressive show this country can still put on. What the

39
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:41,560
Speaker 2: business leaders make of it, I guess we'll find out

40
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:44,200
Speaker 2: when they start writing checks and actually investing in Britain.

41
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:47,480
Speaker 2: But there is a lot of investment coming. Starmer knows

42
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:50,120
Speaker 2: that for him to get this country back on its feet,

43
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:53,960
Speaker 2: moving again and flexing its muscles on the global stage,

44
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 2: he needs growth.

45
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:57,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, big time. And so what I mean, they're obviously

46
00:01:57,240 --> 00:01:59,880
Speaker 1: making a bunch of investments and announcements ahead of the

47
00:01:59,920 --> 00:02:01,440
Speaker 1: Badget what's the biggest so far?

48
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:05,880
Speaker 2: The biggest one, that eye catching one is two billion

49
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:09,640
Speaker 2: dollars worth of investment going into London Stanstead Airport. Now

50
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 2: there's long been talk about heat throw expanding in West

51
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:16,240
Speaker 2: London London Heathrow Airport. I don't think that's ever gonna

52
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:19,360
Speaker 2: happen because it's so built up. They would be basically

53
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 2: demolishing villages to make way for a third runway. And

54
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:25,240
Speaker 2: I think it's clear people have realized that there is

55
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:28,920
Speaker 2: airport capacity in the other kind of regional airports and

56
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:32,360
Speaker 2: Stanstead is prime for development. So two billion dollars of

57
00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 2: private equity capital going into that to make stand Stead

58
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:38,760
Speaker 2: better and bring it on. I mean, I just think

59
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:41,160
Speaker 2: there's so much optimism here, there's so much good to

60
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:45,400
Speaker 2: tap into. You just hope Stammer can just navigate his

61
00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:47,600
Speaker 2: way through some of the pitfalls he's had recently.

62
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:49,560
Speaker 1: What do you make of that? Because I haven't had

63
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:51,400
Speaker 1: a chance to talk to you about that. I mean,

64
00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:53,960
Speaker 1: the stuff has got real, real dusty, isn't it.

65
00:02:55,600 --> 00:03:00,160
Speaker 2: Look there's you've got this vicious conservative right wing media

66
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:02,680
Speaker 2: who will never ever accept it didn't even like Tony

67
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:04,680
Speaker 2: Blair and he was in power for eleven years. Yeah,

68
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:07,160
Speaker 2: and everything was far far better here when Blair was

69
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:10,640
Speaker 2: in charge. Look, Starmer's one hundred days in and they're

70
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:12,720
Speaker 2: all for getting rid of them already. There are certain

71
00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 2: sections of the right wing press, but I think judge

72
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,840
Speaker 2: him after five years, not one hundred days. And look

73
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:22,200
Speaker 2: he accepted Taylor Swift tickets. Yeah, he should have sat

74
00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:24,640
Speaker 2: at home with a big book of economics and studied

75
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:27,120
Speaker 2: all day and maybe had a coffee and gone for

76
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:29,240
Speaker 2: a walk and gone back to the books. You know,

77
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,800
Speaker 2: he's only human. I do think he messed up with

78
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:36,160
Speaker 2: the donations from Lord Ali. I mean, if you're earning

79
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,040
Speaker 2: what three hundred and seventy k and Z the year,

80
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:41,960
Speaker 2: you should be able to buy your own clothes. And

81
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:46,120
Speaker 2: you know, honestly, you know, forty grand's worth of clothing

82
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:49,160
Speaker 2: donations coming in from a billionaire pier. It's not a

83
00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 2: great look when you're meant to be the leader of

84
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 2: the Party of the working people.

85
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:55,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, now you make a very very good point. Hey,

86
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:57,440
Speaker 1: what do you make of Prague deciding its head absolutely

87
00:03:57,520 --> 00:03:59,200
Speaker 1: enough of the British stag panties?

88
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:03,520
Speaker 2: I absolutely love this story and good on them, because

89
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:06,440
Speaker 2: you travel around European cities and the last thing you

90
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:08,840
Speaker 2: want to see is a whole load of English blokes

91
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:12,960
Speaker 2: dressed up as superheroes, singing football songs at foreign girls

92
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,840
Speaker 2: and drinking larger till they fall over. We've seen so

93
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:21,359
Speaker 2: many bad cases of people, extreme cases granted, urinating on

94
00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 2: war memorials in Estonia and Lithuania, and the people of

95
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:28,880
Speaker 2: the Czech Republic have just had enough. So what they're

96
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:31,520
Speaker 2: doing now is they're banning organized pub crawls from ten

97
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:35,240
Speaker 2: pm until six am, and they're getting rid of all

98
00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 2: the kind of stuff that attracts these stag parties in

99
00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 2: huge numbers. So I've been to Prague. It's a beautiful city,

100
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:44,560
Speaker 2: very cultured, and that's the word they're looking for. They

101
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 2: want cultured visitors. I think they've had enough of. You know,

102
00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:51,120
Speaker 2: Batman and Robin and Superman and the lads all heading

103
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,479
Speaker 2: off from South Wales for a weekend to drink twenty

104
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:56,400
Speaker 2: five pints a day. Came over weird.
