1 00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:05,040 Speaker 1: The newsmakers and the personalities. The big names talk to 2 00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:10,119 Speaker 1: Mike my Costing, breakfast with our Veda, retirement, communities, life 3 00:00:10,280 --> 00:00:11,760 Speaker 1: your Way, news talks, head. 4 00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:14,320 Speaker 2: Be all, You're welcome, good news around the economy, retails 5 00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:16,520 Speaker 2: on the up and up, and our pit Troup sectors 6 00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:18,880 Speaker 2: coming back in a big way apparently the start. Contrast 7 00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:21,000 Speaker 2: in Wellington, though, that's getting a crime monitor. The Calm 8 00:00:21,079 --> 00:00:22,800 Speaker 2: Games has got a whole part of sports cuts, so 9 00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:26,120 Speaker 2: that looks doer. David Seymour talks to yummy Lunches, Mark Mitchell, 10 00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:29,840 Speaker 2: Kira macinnulty do politics Wednesday are at Chard Arnold Steve Price. 11 00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:33,920 Speaker 2: They make outside contributions to our program as well, asking 12 00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:36,360 Speaker 2: here we go for a Wednesday seven past six. Darling Tanner, 13 00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:38,239 Speaker 2: of course is gone. There are a myriad of things 14 00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:40,760 Speaker 2: you can say about this whole sorry saga. Firstly, she 15 00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:43,120 Speaker 2: has disgraced and embarrassed herself. She is not a good 16 00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:44,839 Speaker 2: example of the sort of person we would like to 17 00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:48,080 Speaker 2: think heads to Parliament. Secondly, the Greens have disgraced and 18 00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:50,680 Speaker 2: embarrassed themselves. They selected a person who clearly was not 19 00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:53,480 Speaker 2: as she was described on the tin, so their vetting 20 00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:56,960 Speaker 2: process is seriously flawed. They dilly dallied and mucked around 21 00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:59,320 Speaker 2: with an issue that was clear cut. They involved courts 22 00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:01,720 Speaker 2: and time wasting, not to mention taxpayers money supporting a 23 00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:04,319 Speaker 2: person who sat in Parliament drawing a salary asking questions 24 00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:06,960 Speaker 2: it clearly should not have been there. Thirdly, the walker 25 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:09,240 Speaker 2: jumping law is obviously a very good bit of work 26 00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:12,119 Speaker 2: and was designed for exactly the sort of shambles from 27 00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 2: Alaman Kopu all those years ago to this very day. 28 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:17,840 Speaker 2: The Parliament, through a flawed system will sadly produce people 29 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:19,840 Speaker 2: who are not up to it and deserve to be 30 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:22,960 Speaker 2: dealt with. I suppose you can argue that Tarana is 31 00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:26,360 Speaker 2: representative of a system that reflects us, which brings us 32 00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:29,000 Speaker 2: to the complicated area, or whether the people in Parliament 33 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,040 Speaker 2: should be a version of us or a version of 34 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 2: what we would like to think we are. Society is 35 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:36,039 Speaker 2: full of Darline's, you just don't hear about them every day. 36 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,480 Speaker 2: They don't necessarily end up in the public light. For 37 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:41,679 Speaker 2: all the frail, fragmented, dopey, hopeless people that end up 38 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:44,960 Speaker 2: as MPs, they are merely outworkings of the dopey and 39 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:48,000 Speaker 2: hopeless that make up any community or town, or business 40 00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:52,680 Speaker 2: or grouping. We are run by a microcosm of us. Foolishly, 41 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 2: we like to think that if you wrap it up 42 00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 2: in a suit, or give it respectability, or pay it 43 00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 2: a bit of money, or have some trappings, the whole 44 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 2: process becomes hellated and the need of worlds can't get 45 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:04,760 Speaker 2: past the security. Our councils are frequented by the robust 46 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:07,840 Speaker 2: and experienced. We think Parliament is full of the bright 47 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:11,520 Speaker 2: and the insightful. No such luck. Darlene Taner has been 48 00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 2: a waste of time and an expensive mistake, but sadly 49 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:17,079 Speaker 2: she is far from unique, and so too are a 50 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:17,720 Speaker 2: lot of people. 51 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:18,240 Speaker 3: We know. 52 00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 1: News of the world in ninety seconds. 53 00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:25,959 Speaker 2: But the US, the Latino vote is the focus today. 54 00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 4: The Latino community is feder of being exploited, used and 55 00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:33,920 Speaker 4: abused on the border, trafficking with the economy. 56 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 5: You know, we were hard working people. 57 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 2: Suggestion being, of course, that they're moving towards Trump. There's 58 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:41,160 Speaker 2: also a feeling that the Dems might be bleeding votes 59 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:42,960 Speaker 2: because the war in the Middle East and their support 60 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 2: for israel I could. 61 00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 4: Assure you that it's not guessed about Michigan. 62 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 1: This is a nationwide phenomena I am worried. 63 00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:51,720 Speaker 3: I am very worried. 64 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 5: I think the damage is great. 65 00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:57,839 Speaker 2: He's a dem. Then you get to the spin about 66 00:02:57,840 --> 00:02:58,839 Speaker 2: whose campaigning hard. 67 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:02,520 Speaker 6: While Kanaalah Hair takes an entire day off the campaign trail, 68 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 6: apparently she needs the full day to prepare for one 69 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:09,560 Speaker 6: pre taped interview. President Trump is holding a round table 70 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 6: this morning with Latino business owners in Miami. 71 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:14,800 Speaker 2: Got new polling for you shortly on that. Anyway, as 72 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 2: regards the world, the israelis a bombed hospital where they 73 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:19,600 Speaker 2: claim his bill I have well, basically a bank full 74 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 2: of millions of dollars in a bunker below. At the 75 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 2: meantime up top, the doctor's not thrill. 76 00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:24,919 Speaker 5: This is a hospital where people get cheated. 77 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 7: And I think they should be more accurate with the 78 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:33,119 Speaker 7: intelligence they get before spreading any information that we don't 79 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 7: need to lose lives that are unnecessary. 80 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 2: To lose a couple of things in Britain. One, we've 81 00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 2: got two trains that run into each other in wilds. 82 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 2: We're now in a process of investigating what's happened. This 83 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,119 Speaker 2: is a multi agency investigation. 84 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 8: That investigation is ongoing. 85 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:50,680 Speaker 2: And two, they continue to let prisoners out early because 86 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 2: they well, they don't have enough places or indeed prisons, to. 87 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 8: Build enough prisons to meet this demand. 88 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:58,440 Speaker 2: We would have to build the equivalent of HMP Birmingham 89 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:01,520 Speaker 2: in my own constituency of the lady would four and 90 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 2: a half times over every single here, and they're not 91 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:06,840 Speaker 2: doing that. There's a wonderful photo and some of the 92 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 2: press this morning as all the prisoners get led out 93 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 2: being met by Bentley's Lamborghinis and g wagons. Finally, German 94 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:14,640 Speaker 2: police have worked out why pizzeria and Dusseldorf was doing 95 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 2: business like no other pizzeria. You know where this is going. 96 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 2: The sting found that every pizza came with a side 97 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:24,159 Speaker 2: order of cocaine.

Also, they've been busy. 114 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:16,160 Speaker 2: They've upped the UK growth, which I think the UK 115 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:18,040 Speaker 2: will be pretty pleased to see. I mean, anyone who's 116 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,840 Speaker 2: growing these days as good news. They've updated that to 117 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,080 Speaker 2: one point five percent, so they'll take that all day long. 118 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 2: Fourteen past six, Money Bag eleven, Punts, Management, Breach, wid 119 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:30,280 Speaker 2: Morning to You, Morning to Mike right SAP talk me 120 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:34,240 Speaker 2: through a software tech Hare's got a Irons ramifications as well. 121 00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:37,240 Speaker 9: All that euro AT's largest software company came in for 122 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 9: really good results. Cloud has a surge driven by you 123 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,599 Speaker 9: guessed at AI demand tyal revenues and third caught up 124 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 9: nine percent eight point five billion euros. A half of 125 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:49,159 Speaker 9: that was Cloud revenues. They are up twenty five percent 126 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:52,040 Speaker 9: cause they can get seventeen billion euros of sales over 127 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 9: the full year.

And they're making lots of investment in business AI. 131 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 9: They've got this co pilot dual. They reckon all support 132 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:11,679 Speaker 9: eighty percent of most business tasks by year end, including 133 00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 9: finance applications. So it's pretty cool. So the copilot, it 134 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:17,280 Speaker 9: sort of works of other co pilots acting like a 135 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:19,280 Speaker 9: bit of a conductor and an orchestra according to their 136 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:23,280 Speaker 9: analogy directing other copilots, and humans are the composers.

So good AI story. 144 00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:45,679 Speaker 9: Investors liked it. My stock up two percent record highs 145 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:47,800 Speaker 9: and upper mere fifty percent year to day. 146 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:49,680 Speaker 2: Good stuff. And then we get to GM. They sold 147 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 2: a lot of cars. That was good news. 148 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 9: They certainly did.

Another 162 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 9: company on the up and raising it's anual profit forecast, 163 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 9: the Dirty Company to some Philip Morris, she is up 164 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 9: over eight percent. The Melbourne maker delivered record earnings, record 165 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 9: revenues nine point nine billion. So demand for alternative products 166 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 9: is rising and spinning billions on substitutes for cigarettes.

A lot 171 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 9: of people think of it as post it maker, but 172 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:56,840 Speaker 9: it does a lot more than that, so it's in 173 00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 9: a variety of sectors off supplies, but also health care 174 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 9: can shime the goods. So there's a bit of an 175 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 9: economic bell with her as well. So one hundred and 176 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 9: twenty old company reported the income of one point four billion, 177 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:09,080 Speaker 9: that's compared to a two billion loss last year. And 178 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:11,440 Speaker 9: the Ocken the consumer business is going pretty well and 179 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 9: will continue to do so. 180 00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 10: She is. 181 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,400 Speaker 9: They bopped around a bit fairly flat on the day, 182 00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:17,680 Speaker 9: but that forty five percent year today and the only 183 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 9: sort of major miss overnight was Verizon. She is down 184 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 9: slightly on a revenue miss, but sort of sums up 185 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 9: the overwearning season today might. 186 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 2: Run exactly good old New Zealand Inc. 187 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 9: Oh that's right, New Zealand. So you we've got some 188 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:31,520 Speaker 9: good news here as well. So our trade bounced in September, 189 00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 9: shrunk from two point four billion a year ago to 190 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 9: two point one billion. We're exporting more stuff, we're importing 191 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:39,440 Speaker 9: a bit less exports up five point two percent. It's 192 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:43,640 Speaker 9: the highest export number ever recorded. Kiwi Thruit was shipping 193 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 9: that out and drove up one hundred and seventeen percent. 194 00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:49,800 Speaker 9: Apples as well, we're going strongly out twenty three percent. 195 00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:53,160 Speaker 9: And milk, powdered butter and cheese they're up fifteen percent 196 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:56,240 Speaker 9: as well. Stronger price and will be helping. Log exports 197 00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 9: are up. So yeah, real good news story. Look at geographically, 198 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:02,320 Speaker 9: EU U by fifty percent to one hundred and eighty 199 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:05,920 Speaker 9: three million exports to Japan and China we're down by 200 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 9: eight percent. Of China was still our largest export destination. 201 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 9: Let's not forget that it's actually almost double the use 202 00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:15,200 Speaker 9: in China and the family running sheep station the Deep South, 203 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 9: I can vouch it. Demand from China's been pretty tepid, 204 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:19,959 Speaker 9: but hope for those stimulus measures will sort of pick 205 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 9: things up. Looking at the import side, that fell by 206 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:25,120 Speaker 9: point nine percent, so soft economy. People pulling back on 207 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 9: stuff including machinery, patrolling products that was down lower pricing. 208 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:32,559 Speaker 9: Their inputs in China were down ten percent, but US 209 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:34,960 Speaker 9: jumped fifty one percent. That thanks to news on getting 210 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:38,199 Speaker 9: a new Boeing seven seven seven and Cowley story was 211 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,440 Speaker 9: good as well, Mike.

It's 213 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:46,200 Speaker 9: down from fifteen point four billion. 214 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:46,480 Speaker 5: A year ago. 215 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:48,959 Speaker 9: So looks say we reached a peak in exports and 216 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 9: imports will headback judice our cuts. Not so sure about that. 217 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 9: You know that we'll probably get a weaker currency. So 218 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:55,959 Speaker 9: good news for exports, maybe not so good news for 219 00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 9: the cost of things we import. 220 00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:59,439 Speaker 2: But see, I like all of this one are the numbers. 221 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 9: Hey, the downs fitling flat down at the moment forty 222 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,079 Speaker 9: two nine to twenty s and P five hundred down 223 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 9: point three percent, five eight three six.

Got some serious stuff going 249 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 2: on without people like him doing stuff. Whether I mean, 250 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:24,559 Speaker 2: you know, it's inexcusable what he did, but they've tried 251 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 2: to make more of it than it probably needed. Yesterday 252 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:30,440 Speaker 2: in the House it got settled because they asked labor 253 00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:32,880 Speaker 2: clearly had something about a beer garden and a winery 254 00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:36,280 Speaker 2: prior to the incident. He answered and said he had 255 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:40,640 Speaker 2: nothing to drink before the incident, and they were taken aback. 256 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 2: Labor clearly thought they were onto something there. So in 257 00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:45,920 Speaker 2: saying that to the house, you don't lie to the house, 258 00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:47,840 Speaker 2: because that's a sackable offense. He would have been gone. 259 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:51,200 Speaker 2: He's no idiot. He came back last night to correct 260 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:56,120 Speaker 2: the answer, but he corrected it out of a wealth 261 00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:58,719 Speaker 2: of caution, because he now claims to have had a 262 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:04,120 Speaker 2: small quote unquote wine tasting after the incident. So his 263 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:08,079 Speaker 2: original answer, I had nothing to drink prior the inference 264 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:11,199 Speaker 2: from the person who's aggrieved being he could have been drunk, 265 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 2: he had nothing to drink. That answer stands. He had 266 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:18,240 Speaker 2: a small wine tasting after the incident, so that was 267 00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:20,959 Speaker 2: out of an abundance of caution. So hopefully, once and 268 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 2: for all, we're done with it. 269 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 1: Six twenty five Trending now with him as well, your 270 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:29,480 Speaker 1: home of Sports and Nutrition. 271 00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:32,280 Speaker 2: Now we've got a new season of Goosebumps.

But anyway, we talked 304 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:54,959 Speaker 2: about a bloke at the Conquer's King Conquer, Dave Jenkins. 305 00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:58,599 Speaker 2: He was at the World Conquer Championships and they accused 306 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:01,680 Speaker 2: him of being a cheat because he had a steel 307 00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:04,839 Speaker 2: chestnut conquer in his pocket, and people went weigh on, 308 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:06,719 Speaker 2: you don't turn up to the World Championships with a 309 00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:09,160 Speaker 2: steel conquer in your pocket without using his steel conquer, 310 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:11,280 Speaker 2: So is he a cheat? He's eighty two, by the way, 311 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,679 Speaker 2: and he won the men's tournament. So did he use 312 00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:16,839 Speaker 2: the steel chestnut? Now we left it. We left it 313 00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 2: hanging because of course the accusation was there, but it 314 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 2: was confirmed overnight that he's clean.

This is his eleventh visit to the region. 507 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:50,760 Speaker 18: He met with the Israel's PM at this morning, criticizing 508 00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:54,479 Speaker 18: him for curtailing aid to Gaza. In recent weeks, there 509 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:57,320 Speaker 18: has been a fifty percent count in aid supplies to Gaza. 510 00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:00,600 Speaker 18: US laws require withdrawal of military assistance to countries that 511 00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:03,680 Speaker 18: block the flow of American humanitarian age. So that's the stick. 512 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:07,159 Speaker 18: Whether there's anything behind it is the other question. Donald Trump, meantime, 513 00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:10,240 Speaker 18: in an interview with the Saudi news agency Al Arabia, 514 00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:13,960 Speaker 18: says he thinks the hostages at Washington and many in 515 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:17,200 Speaker 18: Israel and elsewhere are seeking to rescue. Those hostages taken 516 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:20,760 Speaker 18: by Hamas during their initial raid are dead. 517 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:23,480 Speaker 11: But many of them have been killed, and I'm sure 518 00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:24,480 Speaker 11: many of them are dead. 519 00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:26,639 Speaker 16: I think even early on, I think a lot of 520 00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:28,640 Speaker 16: those hostages were dead. 521 00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:30,080 Speaker 3: I think they were dead. 522 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:30,480 Speaker 8: Type. 523 00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:33,560 Speaker 18: What are the families, including American families think of that? 524 00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:33,960 Speaker 8: All right? 525 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:35,639 Speaker 2: Mate? See if I appreciate it very much, If you 526 00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:37,520 Speaker 2: can be bothered looking it up. John kingdal a very 527 00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:40,040 Speaker 2: nice peace. He went to junking of CNN. He went 528 00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:43,080 Speaker 2: to Detroit and interviewed a whole lot of auto workers 529 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 2: about where they're at, why they're at, Very articulate people. 530 00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:47,879 Speaker 2: It was a good insight and just sort of by 531 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:51,240 Speaker 2: the by that woman Nutzi at Libyan Nutzi, who was 532 00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:54,600 Speaker 2: working at New York Magazine allegedly in some strange non 533 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:59,240 Speaker 2: physical way, became involved in a personal relationship with RFK. 534 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,240 Speaker 2: And then they stood it down, and then they investigated 535 00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:04,119 Speaker 2: her work and they found there was no change to 536 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:05,920 Speaker 2: the work. And she said, see, I told you there's 537 00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:08,119 Speaker 2: no change to the work. They let her go anyway, 538 00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:10,680 Speaker 2: So that all unfolded yesterday eleven away from seven. 539 00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:14,720 Speaker 1: The Lake Hoski Regiss with Bailey's real Estate News Dogs. 540 00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:17,640 Speaker 2: There's the reference to polling the latest the New York 541 00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:21,359 Speaker 2: Times polling and polling the average Pennsylvania, Michigan, Nevada, Wisconsin, 542 00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:25,840 Speaker 2: and North Carolina. North Carolina might be a little bit different. 543 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 2: Let me come back to that. But it's all within 544 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:31,399 Speaker 2: such a small margin. No one's winning, no one's losing. 545 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:34,879 Speaker 2: They're all within zero zero point two percent. So in 546 00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:37,880 Speaker 2: other words, so far within the margin of era, it's 547 00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:40,360 Speaker 2: not even worth talking about. What I'm seeing a lot 548 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:43,240 Speaker 2: of commentary around is the writer and the writer is 549 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:46,400 Speaker 2: this in recent elections in twenty twenty two and twenty 550 00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:48,520 Speaker 2: four to twenty two being the midterm. Of course, in 551 00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:53,440 Speaker 2: recent elections, the polls tended to systematically underestimate or overestimate 552 00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:57,760 Speaker 2: one side, so that happens, either of them could win 553 00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 2: and win on the night easily, So all of this 554 00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:04,439 Speaker 2: may be for nothing. Nationwide, Harris is officially ahead by 555 00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:08,600 Speaker 2: one point on average. There's only one major national pole 556 00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:13,800 Speaker 2: showing Harris improving in any way, shape or form last week. Overall, 557 00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:17,879 Speaker 2: if you're looking once again at averages, it's moving towards Trump, 558 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:20,840 Speaker 2: but once again not in a way that you would go, well, 559 00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:23,200 Speaker 2: there it is. He's won, then, because you cannot even 560 00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:26,800 Speaker 2: begin to say that North Carolina, they think at this 561 00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:30,520 Speaker 2: point might be slightly different. There's a quinnipiac for Harris 562 00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:35,080 Speaker 2: ahead by three. He Trump still holds a big lead. 563 00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:38,760 Speaker 2: In Georgia. There's a signal pole that has Trump ahead 564 00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:41,080 Speaker 2: by a point. So you got two poles. In North Carolina, 565 00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 2: Trump's leading in one. Harris is ahead significantly. What's going 566 00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:48,960 Speaker 2: on Helene, Hurricane Eleen, so the cleanup still on. People's 567 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:50,920 Speaker 2: lives are up ended. They've got bigger things and better 568 00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:53,000 Speaker 2: things to do. So they think the polling could be 569 00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:55,640 Speaker 2: all over the place. So Carolina isn't play. North Carolina 570 00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:59,520 Speaker 2: doesn't play. But as for the other the swing states, 571 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:04,120 Speaker 2: there's nothing. There is literally literally nothing in early voting today. 572 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:07,040 Speaker 2: By the way, opened in Wisconsin in person. Trump got 573 00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:09,600 Speaker 2: that last time by twenty one thousand votes. So in 574 00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:13,040 Speaker 2: these states that they should really feel confident about now, 575 00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:14,520 Speaker 2: not all of them are going to go their way, 576 00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:16,359 Speaker 2: but in these states that they should be feeling pretty 577 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:19,320 Speaker 2: confident about, they're not, and not even closer. And that's 578 00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:21,639 Speaker 2: what makes it so fascinating. Five minutes away from seven, 579 00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:23,639 Speaker 2: all the ins. 580 00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:27,320 Speaker 1: And the ouse. It's the fizz with business favor. Take 581 00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:29,640 Speaker 1: your business productivity to the next level. 582 00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:32,240 Speaker 2: Swicy. Now there's words you need to remember because it's 583 00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 2: a trend, the swicy trend, and that's coming to a 584 00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:37,639 Speaker 2: restaurant near you. Are sweet and spicy. You put sweet 585 00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:39,200 Speaker 2: and spicy together. What do you come up when you 586 00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:42,399 Speaker 2: come up with swicy? It's the latest phrase in the 587 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:46,000 Speaker 2: restaurant marketing. In fact, the Food Institute has said it's 588 00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:50,439 Speaker 2: the summer of swicy in demand by the consumers. Ten 589 00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:53,440 Speaker 2: percent of restaurant menus now have a swicy item that's 590 00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:55,600 Speaker 2: expected to go up nine point six percent in the 591 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:58,280 Speaker 2: next four years. Nine point six in the next four years. 592 00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:00,520 Speaker 2: I mean, is that just a random pull it out 593 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:04,040 Speaker 2: of you rear en number or what mostly chained Starbucks, 594 00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:08,720 Speaker 2: Burger King, all that sort of stuff, buzzy trendy menu items. 595 00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:12,440 Speaker 2: Franks have got a spicy ice cream bar. Starbucks have 596 00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:16,720 Speaker 2: got a fire strawberry and sprite drink, fire strawberry and sprites. Spicy. 597 00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:20,919 Speaker 2: US restaurant traffic dropped three point six percent, so they 598 00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:22,440 Speaker 2: need a bit of spicy to you know. 599 00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:25,880 Speaker 11: I remember you Grumpy who used to be the producer 600 00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:29,879 Speaker 11: of this show. He used to make a great chili 601 00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:30,720 Speaker 11: chocolate cake. 602 00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:35,439 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I'll do Yeah, No, that's pretty cool. By 603 00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:38,320 Speaker 2: the way, speaking of food sausages, the suprema would is 604 00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:40,440 Speaker 2: probably the way we went to Westmere Butchery and Auckland 605 00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:43,480 Speaker 2: pork and leak classic can't be the classics. But what 606 00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:46,360 Speaker 2: I did note in the overall list of winners, and 607 00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:49,280 Speaker 2: there's a huge list of winners. The gourmet pork, the 608 00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:52,000 Speaker 2: pre cooked the meat ball. Good to see the meat balls, 609 00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:54,840 Speaker 2: because meatballs are underrated in my humble opinion. But Peter Tims, 610 00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:57,680 Speaker 2: who is famous in christ You do you want to 611 00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:00,880 Speaker 2: go anywhere for meat? Peter Tims, you man your meatballs anyway, 612 00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:04,800 Speaker 2: he's a winner. The Gourmet Variety sausage, the gourmet beef sausage, 613 00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:07,880 Speaker 2: the classes classic burger patty. What I noticed as a 614 00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:11,480 Speaker 2: trend is there's a lot of supermarkets that are winners. 615 00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:13,920 Speaker 2: So the days of the butchery, I buy all my 616 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,360 Speaker 2: meat at a butchery. I don't go to the supermarket. 617 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:19,120 Speaker 2: But clearly what's happened in the supermarket area is a 618 00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:20,960 Speaker 2: number of them who are smart, have got their act 619 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:24,000 Speaker 2: together and instead of just having weird, rudeolph cuts put 620 00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:26,840 Speaker 2: under glad rap and charging you too much for them, 621 00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:29,240 Speaker 2: they've actually got their act together and they're producing some 622 00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 2: good stuff. So there's quite a few winners there in 623 00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:35,240 Speaker 2: this year's Sausage Awards. The Continental ready to eat sausage. 624 00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:38,720 Speaker 2: Ready to eat should be banned. I mean ready to eat. 625 00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:40,440 Speaker 2: You don't even need to cook it. 626 00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:42,400 Speaker 11: So what are are you talking? A little boy there? 627 00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:43,040 Speaker 5: Is that what you mean? 628 00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:47,640 Speaker 2: The smoked papprika and jalipino and cheese kransky is what 629 00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:48,400 Speaker 2: we're talking about. 630 00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:50,320 Speaker 11: That actually sounds quite good. 631 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:52,560 Speaker 2: Now it doesn't win. It sounds like it's bad for you. 632 00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:54,720 Speaker 11: So how wrong I can be? 633 00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:57,480 Speaker 2: It could be good and bad for you. I suppose, Hey, Wellington, 634 00:29:57,520 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 2: how are you going this morning? You're ready for your mono? 635 00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:03,480 Speaker 2: We'll have a talk about this shortly, big. 636 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:09,080 Speaker 1: News, bold opinions, the Mic Hosking breakfast with Bailey's real Estate, 637 00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:13,240 Speaker 1: your local experts across residential, commercial, and rural news togs 638 00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:13,680 Speaker 1: had been. 639 00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:15,760 Speaker 2: Only seven past seven. So the government pulled the Wellington 640 00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:18,200 Speaker 2: trigger and will place a Crown observer into the council 641 00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:21,600 Speaker 2: that does observing dysfunction sold the dysfunction. Former Wellington Mayor 642 00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:25,320 Speaker 2: Dame Kerry Prindergast's well us Kerry, morning to you, good morning. 643 00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:28,000 Speaker 2: Make does it pain your heart to watch alders? 644 00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:33,880 Speaker 20: I think for most Wellingtonians therell be some release this morning. 645 00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:37,920 Speaker 20: The poll set me indicate that not just Swellington's but 646 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:41,240 Speaker 20: New Zealanders were tired of what was playing out in 647 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:44,920 Speaker 20: our front pages. I am sure the mayor and counselors 648 00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:48,640 Speaker 20: and management are also positive about this. It needs to 649 00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:49,240 Speaker 20: be sorted. 650 00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:52,600 Speaker 2: What does an observer do that's practical as opposed to 651 00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:54,400 Speaker 2: just observing and reporting back. 652 00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:58,640 Speaker 20: I think the terms of reference from what I read, 653 00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:04,840 Speaker 20: they have a role certainly in reporting and watching what's happening. 654 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:08,640 Speaker 20: They have to ensure that quality advice is coming from management, 655 00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:11,400 Speaker 20: and they have the ability to go outside council to 656 00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:14,880 Speaker 20: make sure there is quality advice, and that they have 657 00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:18,680 Speaker 20: to make sure that all that advice goes into making 658 00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:21,360 Speaker 20: sure the next long term plan, which Council will have 659 00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:26,160 Speaker 20: to consult on again is financially sustainable. And they've got 660 00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:30,520 Speaker 20: to peraps give some guidance on leadership. A tall order, 661 00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:33,480 Speaker 20: but I think the response from the mayor was the 662 00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:38,720 Speaker 20: right one. Yesterday wants to work positively accepts it, and 663 00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:40,960 Speaker 20: I think that is absolutely the right response. 664 00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:43,840 Speaker 2: From your observation. How much of it's about the mechanics 665 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:46,680 Speaker 2: of running a city versus the ideology and never the 666 00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:47,440 Speaker 2: twins shall meet. 667 00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:52,680 Speaker 20: I think it's a combination of everything. A new mayor 668 00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:58,240 Speaker 20: and a diverse use around the table, and the complications 669 00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:03,040 Speaker 20: of massive under investment and in destruction, how do you 670 00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:06,160 Speaker 20: fund it? And all of that came to a head. 671 00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:09,560 Speaker 20: Of course, when what they thought would help fund it 672 00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:14,160 Speaker 20: the sale of the airport shares. That vote changed, so 673 00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:16,240 Speaker 20: they don't have to go back and try and find 674 00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 20: where they make up that gap. 675 00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:20,880 Speaker 2: Has Simeon read it right? An observer for now, which 676 00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:23,640 Speaker 2: is a shot across the bow? I'm assuming, or should 677 00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:26,160 Speaker 2: he have gone further in the first place? 678 00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:31,600 Speaker 20: I think the minister has made the right corn I 679 00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:34,080 Speaker 20: am positives. He didn't make that decision lightly. 680 00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:35,600 Speaker 5: It is not. 681 00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:40,520 Speaker 20: It is not easy for a central government to step 682 00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:43,840 Speaker 20: into local government. Local government's responsible for its own decisions, 683 00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:46,840 Speaker 20: and this is a center right government. I am sure 684 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:50,240 Speaker 20: that he took lots of advice and it wasn't something 685 00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:53,560 Speaker 20: that he came to an easy decision on. But I 686 00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:56,280 Speaker 20: do think it's the right decision. And let's hope with 687 00:32:56,480 --> 00:33:00,560 Speaker 20: the right person in there and a council than mayor 688 00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:03,160 Speaker 20: and management her now listener, we're going to see the 689 00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:04,680 Speaker 20: right response coming from them. 690 00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:06,120 Speaker 2: Would you want to be a Crown observer? 691 00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:09,720 Speaker 20: I don't think that's the skill set they're looking for. 692 00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:15,080 Speaker 20: They'll be looking for someone who is maybe an accountant, 693 00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:21,360 Speaker 20: a financial expert, someone who will be able to display 694 00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:24,480 Speaker 20: the qualities I've just said that's the sort of person. 695 00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:24,880 Speaker 16: They'll be looking for. 696 00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:26,720 Speaker 2: Nice to talk to. You appreciate it very much, Dame 697 00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:29,320 Speaker 2: Kerry Prendergasta former willing to miracles him and it's past 698 00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:31,840 Speaker 2: seven task getting from one city to another. More emergency 699 00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:34,160 Speaker 2: motel drama in wrote a ruined Ministry of Housing an 700 00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:37,040 Speaker 2: urban development supply to keep seven facilities open for another year. 701 00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:39,000 Speaker 2: That's now in the hands of an independent Commission of 702 00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:41,720 Speaker 2: the Residents and Rapayers. Chairman Reynold McPherson's with us rental 703 00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:45,560 Speaker 2: morning to you morning make Do you have any hope 704 00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:48,000 Speaker 2: that the independent the commissioner is going to somehow go 705 00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:50,320 Speaker 2: your way or it's a foregone conclusion. 706 00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:54,000 Speaker 3: No, we don't have any faith in the commission process 707 00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:56,760 Speaker 3: at all. That's set up by the council. It always 708 00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:59,200 Speaker 3: seems to come out with the their preferred solution. 709 00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:02,560 Speaker 2: Although the mayor's sort of on you, so, I mean, 710 00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:04,760 Speaker 2: she's been very anti these emergency housing, hasn't she. 711 00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:10,279 Speaker 3: Tanya Mayor Tani taps Or was the housing lead under 712 00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:14,279 Speaker 3: the previous minister. Under the previous mayor that's set up 713 00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:17,560 Speaker 3: the whole of the housing industry, so I think she's 714 00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:19,200 Speaker 3: paying the ends off against the middle here. 715 00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:20,800 Speaker 5: Before the last. 716 00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:23,879 Speaker 3: Election, Chris Bishop and Tama Podeker in our local MP 717 00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:28,160 Speaker 3: Todd McLay all promised to stop dumping homeless and road RUH. 718 00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:32,359 Speaker 3: The MSD will not give us the numbers. Omusman has 719 00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:35,920 Speaker 3: asked them to help, but they've refused to do so, 720 00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:38,560 Speaker 3: so we don't even know the numbers are still they've 721 00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:41,080 Speaker 3: brought into wrote ru since the last election. 722 00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:43,200 Speaker 2: Now you raise a really interesting point, because I'm seeing 723 00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:45,279 Speaker 2: a lot of pushback from the public service at the moment. 724 00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:49,040 Speaker 2: Is it possible the ministers if not aware or maybe 725 00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:51,440 Speaker 2: are aware. I have told them not to do what 726 00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:53,240 Speaker 2: they're doing, but they're doing it anyway. 727 00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:56,640 Speaker 3: That could be the case. We're not privy to that, 728 00:34:56,960 --> 00:34:59,920 Speaker 3: but I do know that Caring Aura is still rushing 729 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:04,600 Speaker 3: ahead and pepper potting social housing across many suburbs. Crime's 730 00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:08,279 Speaker 3: pretty rampant. But our view is that tourism and the 731 00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:11,960 Speaker 3: whole of our economy will recover at the rate at 732 00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:15,680 Speaker 3: which the homeless industry shrinks. But they've set up a 733 00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:18,280 Speaker 3: homeless industry, so it's got a great deal of impetus 734 00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:20,320 Speaker 3: to it, but it can't continue. 735 00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:22,480 Speaker 2: It's all about reputation isn't renal. I mean you look 736 00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:24,880 Speaker 2: at Wellington. You know the reputation of Wellington is it's 737 00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:27,440 Speaker 2: a mess. The reputation of Road a Rua is its 738 00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:29,920 Speaker 2: home to emergency housing. And that's the thing you got to. 739 00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:35,279 Speaker 3: Break exactly exactly, and changing that perception is going to 740 00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:38,400 Speaker 3: depend very much on I think the Road Lakes Council 741 00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:42,320 Speaker 3: starting to think afresh about a new model and persuading 742 00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:45,799 Speaker 3: the ministers not to keep dumping homeless on road Rue. 743 00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:48,520 Speaker 3: As long as they do that, this housing, this homeless 744 00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:50,279 Speaker 3: industry will continue well. 745 00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:53,480 Speaker 2: Articulated Renal.

One of the supermarkets used to have 765 00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:55,920 Speaker 2: a truck and the truck never turned up. They were useless. 766 00:36:55,960 --> 00:36:59,360 Speaker 2: But the same supermarket, while still running the truck, is 767 00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:02,560 Speaker 2: running an Uber service now where your groceries come in 768 00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:06,120 Speaker 2: five six, seven minutes.

Milk 771 00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:17,480 Speaker 2: Run Milk Run, while milk Run is so fantastically successful, 772 00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:21,000 Speaker 2: while their truck service also paid for there but is 773 00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:24,080 Speaker 2: so fantastically useless. Why would you run a good service 774 00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:28,600 Speaker 2: and a useless service together. That's my marketing question for you. 775 00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:30,400 Speaker 2: This morning, fourteen past seven. 776 00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:35,960 Speaker 1: The High Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered 777 00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:37,759 Speaker 1: by News Talks A b u Talks. 778 00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:40,279 Speaker 2: Small correction to the program are text and from my 779 00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:43,719 Speaker 2: wife milk run is now shit big delays.

Or too early? 795 00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:26,440 Speaker 15: Maybe too early? I think let's just keep it on 796 00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:29,480 Speaker 15: ice and pop the cork when we actually see the 797 00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:33,880 Speaker 15: sales numbers list. I think that would be the wise 798 00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:37,200 Speaker 15: thing to do. But it is great to have some optimism, 799 00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:40,800 Speaker 15: obviously reflecting the economic numbers that have been coming out recently, 800 00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:43,520 Speaker 15: and we just really now need to see the consumer 801 00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:47,279 Speaker 15: confidence turn around so that those that optimism will turn 802 00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:47,880 Speaker 15: into sales. 803 00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:50,320 Speaker 2: Is this literally come from one cash rate in the 804 00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:52,759 Speaker 2: possibility of another one? Is it that simple. 805 00:38:55,080 --> 00:39:00,239 Speaker 15: Look obviously couplic cash rates and the knowledge that late 806 00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:03,000 Speaker 15: now is within the right band and that we do 807 00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:06,600 Speaker 15: see the way forward. Up until recently, you know, it 808 00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:09,560 Speaker 15: had been a pretty dark tunne on as you say, 809 00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:11,640 Speaker 15: we can now see life at the end of the tunnel, 810 00:39:11,680 --> 00:39:13,719 Speaker 15: and we can see that in six or nine months 811 00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:16,879 Speaker 15: time we should have turned the corner and be right 812 00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:18,520 Speaker 15: out of the end of this procession. 813 00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:22,360 Speaker 2: Because people, here's my take on humanity. No matter what 814 00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:24,640 Speaker 2: difficulties we have, and we do have difficulties and we 815 00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:27,279 Speaker 2: will for a while, Yet people are desperate to be happy, 816 00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:29,279 Speaker 2: aren't they when you've been miserable for several years, you 817 00:39:29,360 --> 00:39:31,840 Speaker 2: want to be happy.

It wasn't the end of the 886 00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:40,360 Speaker 2: world after all. Several crimes have been committed in the 887 00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:42,800 Speaker 2: school lunch drama, which, of course crime number one. It 888 00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:44,560 Speaker 2: should never have been a drama at all because the 889 00:42:44,680 --> 00:42:48,080 Speaker 2: previous government, and yet another example of their wasteful, haphazard 890 00:42:48,160 --> 00:42:50,560 Speaker 2: way of doing things, should never have got into the 891 00:42:50,560 --> 00:42:53,120 Speaker 2: school lunch program business in the first place, because when 892 00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:55,040 Speaker 2: they did, they worked out they couldn't afford it and 893 00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:56,920 Speaker 2: therefore only gave it to a few, and many of 894 00:42:56,960 --> 00:42:58,920 Speaker 2: the few didn't actually want the lunches, but they had 895 00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:00,800 Speaker 2: to take them because a kid who did what the 896 00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:02,640 Speaker 2: lunch couldn't be made to feel bad, so the other 897 00:43:02,680 --> 00:43:05,200 Speaker 2: three hundred had to eat the sandwiches with them. Crime 898 00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:07,600 Speaker 2: number two. They only funded it until the election, thus 899 00:43:07,640 --> 00:43:09,799 Speaker 2: making it a fiscal cliff. David Seymour should have killed 900 00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:12,200 Speaker 2: the thing completely. We got talk down to what we 901 00:43:12,320 --> 00:43:15,080 Speaker 2: have now, which is three dollars a pop. Crime number three. 902 00:43:15,560 --> 00:43:18,400 Speaker 2: All the handwringers who are pined over and over and 903 00:43:18,719 --> 00:43:21,120 Speaker 2: over about how they wouldn't be any good and no 904 00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:23,520 Speaker 2: one can make food for three dollars. Kids would go hungry. 905 00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:26,879 Speaker 2: It's a scandal. So it went fast forward. The menu's out, 906 00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:29,360 Speaker 2: complete with photos of food. Wouldn't you know it? For 907 00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:31,320 Speaker 2: three bucks you can do a pretty decent job. You 908 00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:33,719 Speaker 2: feed kids, You save money. We have a lesson and 909 00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:36,840 Speaker 2: expenditure and wastage, and a government promise has been delivered. 910 00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:41,160 Speaker 2: The lunches were eight dollars sixty eight under labor, now 911 00:43:41,239 --> 00:43:44,200 Speaker 2: they're three. That's quite the difference, isn't it. What cost 912 00:43:44,280 --> 00:43:47,840 Speaker 2: almost half a billion dollars now costs three hundred and 913 00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:50,840 Speaker 2: twenty million. And maybe the stories of the teachers helping themselves, 914 00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:53,399 Speaker 2: or families getting delivered the extras, or the farmers feeding 915 00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:55,520 Speaker 2: it all to the pigs will vanish, along with the 916 00:43:55,600 --> 00:43:58,200 Speaker 2: doubters who've made it a pastime, if not a living, 917 00:43:58,560 --> 00:44:00,520 Speaker 2: refusing to believe a lot of what was done under 918 00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:02,840 Speaker 2: labour couldn't be done cheaper and better if only they 919 00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:06,120 Speaker 2: paid attention to detail. And we're driven more by practicality, 920 00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:11,320 Speaker 2: unless by ideology and thought bubbles. Asking good old Frederick, 921 00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:14,640 Speaker 2: say morning, my Woolworth trucks run by Woolworth's milk run 922 00:44:14,680 --> 00:44:17,279 Speaker 2: delivered by a third party Deliveries. That's why it works 923 00:44:17,360 --> 00:44:20,160 Speaker 2: because Woolworth's one. Not According to Katie, it doesn't because 924 00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:23,120 Speaker 2: Woolworth's aren't doing it. I work for deliveries, the X Trade. 925 00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:24,839 Speaker 2: He made the switch two and a half years ago. 926 00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:25,279 Speaker 3: Love it. 927 00:44:25,400 --> 00:44:28,320 Speaker 2: But yes, we get paid per delivery, so it's in 928 00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:30,799 Speaker 2: our interest to do it. Well. What I can't work 929 00:44:30,840 --> 00:44:32,440 Speaker 2: I'm glad you got a job you're enjoying. What I 930 00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:34,319 Speaker 2: can't work out is this.

It's nothing. How 934 00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:45,279 Speaker 2: do you get from the supermarket, drive your PRIs to 935 00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:49,400 Speaker 2: my place and charge me six dollars and still make money? 936 00:44:49,960 --> 00:44:51,840 Speaker 2: That's what I want to know.

That's why I don't go on morning 989 00:47:17,360 --> 00:47:19,319 Speaker 16: and report and haven't done for the last five years. 990 00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:21,080 Speaker 5: The truth is I've found. 991 00:47:20,880 --> 00:47:23,200 Speaker 16: The cure to cancer. That's sort of a ways done 992 00:47:23,280 --> 00:47:26,279 Speaker 16: for the wrong reason, So we'll fall them. Isn't a 993 00:47:26,280 --> 00:47:28,239 Speaker 16: great thing on the my crossing request, Yes, it is. 994 00:47:28,560 --> 00:47:30,640 Speaker 2: Having said that, one of the other complaints and what 995 00:47:30,760 --> 00:47:32,560 Speaker 2: was the other complain The other complaint is the company 996 00:47:32,680 --> 00:47:35,239 Speaker 2: or one of the companies you've hired, have some sort 997 00:47:35,280 --> 00:47:38,839 Speaker 2: of auditing process internationally and they've been found wanting true 998 00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:39,080 Speaker 2: or not. 999 00:47:40,520 --> 00:47:43,359 Speaker 16: Yeah, that is true. I mean you've got big contractors 1000 00:47:43,440 --> 00:47:47,520 Speaker 16: providing large amounts for meals, and the risk is always 1001 00:47:47,600 --> 00:47:50,279 Speaker 16: that once you're in the door, the quality of the 1002 00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:52,800 Speaker 16: contract and declines. But when this is not new, we 1003 00:47:52,960 --> 00:47:56,160 Speaker 16: know that, and what we've done has been a lift 1004 00:47:56,280 --> 00:48:00,960 Speaker 16: to the challenges that other government departs, such as defense, 1005 00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:03,719 Speaker 16: for example, I've had with the same contractors you've said, 1006 00:48:03,760 --> 00:48:06,840 Speaker 16: I think you make it work as you can, and 1007 00:48:07,160 --> 00:48:11,040 Speaker 16: we're basically built into our contract. Really strict monitoring so 1008 00:48:11,200 --> 00:48:13,600 Speaker 16: that we can ensure the quality stays up. So yeah, 1009 00:48:13,640 --> 00:48:16,040 Speaker 16: I mean, but this is not new right, Like many 1010 00:48:16,120 --> 00:48:20,719 Speaker 16: of the contractors that were previously in place, people were dissatisfied, 1011 00:48:20,760 --> 00:48:21,920 Speaker 16: and you sign a contract, you have. 1012 00:48:21,960 --> 00:48:22,440 Speaker 5: To manage it. 1013 00:48:22,680 --> 00:48:24,720 Speaker 2: Have you been surprised? I know this is a slightly 1014 00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:27,600 Speaker 2: softball question, but have you been? Tom? I'm getting really 1015 00:48:27,680 --> 00:48:30,720 Speaker 2: depressed at the number. I mean, you've solved the problem. 1016 00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:34,680 Speaker 2: You've irrefutably solved the problem at three dollars. I saw 1017 00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:37,279 Speaker 2: what you've served up. I see it, I get it. 1018 00:48:37,680 --> 00:48:40,840 Speaker 2: It's edible. You've fixed the problem. Yet people still don't 1019 00:48:40,880 --> 00:48:43,839 Speaker 2: want to see that it's fixed, indicating that there are 1020 00:48:43,840 --> 00:48:47,600 Speaker 2: people who literally will not accept that you're right and 1021 00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:50,880 Speaker 2: you delivered, and there's something wrong with us, isn't there. 1022 00:48:52,000 --> 00:48:54,560 Speaker 16: Well, we've put it out of the way. I think 1023 00:48:54,640 --> 00:48:59,279 Speaker 16: what has been done is actually quite amazing. But it's 1024 00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:02,279 Speaker 16: not really me that's doneed I just let a group 1025 00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:04,680 Speaker 16: of people get on with it. And if you look 1026 00:49:04,800 --> 00:49:08,800 Speaker 16: at these businesses, if you look at the Volunteer Expert 1027 00:49:08,880 --> 00:49:12,759 Speaker 16: Advisory Group, people like stef Arramunger who led it, people 1028 00:49:12,960 --> 00:49:16,640 Speaker 16: like the Heart Foundation who volunteered people that just came 1029 00:49:16,719 --> 00:49:20,360 Speaker 16: off from business in one case, you know, getting pretty 1030 00:49:20,400 --> 00:49:23,319 Speaker 16: big pay cups. I suspect for the government daily rate 1031 00:49:23,400 --> 00:49:25,279 Speaker 16: is a bit less than they normally expect, but they 1032 00:49:25,320 --> 00:49:29,480 Speaker 16: did it for New Zealand. Those people actually really pulled 1033 00:49:29,520 --> 00:49:33,480 Speaker 16: together something really different. The Ministry of Education yesterday said 1034 00:49:33,520 --> 00:49:36,120 Speaker 16: that you know, we're not used to operating like this. 1035 00:49:36,239 --> 00:49:39,000 Speaker 16: It's been a real eye opener for us. So all 1036 00:49:39,120 --> 00:49:41,880 Speaker 16: I've done is bring together a group of people, business, 1037 00:49:42,680 --> 00:49:47,600 Speaker 16: voluntary sector, government and say here's a big target three dollars. 1038 00:49:47,680 --> 00:49:51,040 Speaker 16: Can we do it? And actually, given those conditions, they're 1039 00:49:51,120 --> 00:49:54,560 Speaker 16: underway and we're basically if we've done this as a 1040 00:49:54,600 --> 00:49:57,680 Speaker 16: government five years ago, if labor had adopted this model, 1041 00:49:58,280 --> 00:50:00,640 Speaker 16: the total savings to date would be eight hundred and 1042 00:50:00,719 --> 00:50:04,520 Speaker 16: sixty million dollars. Instead, we have eight hundred and sixty 1043 00:50:04,600 --> 00:50:07,880 Speaker 16: million more debts that you know ironically that the children 1044 00:50:07,920 --> 00:50:11,160 Speaker 16: getting the lunches will have to pay more than anyone. 1045 00:50:11,320 --> 00:50:14,080 Speaker 16: So look, I can see why some people might be 1046 00:50:14,160 --> 00:50:17,160 Speaker 16: indignantal but you know, we've done something quite different here. 1047 00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:20,000 Speaker 16: We've done something that I always looked in COVID. I thought, 1048 00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:23,560 Speaker 16: why can't the government work with business more? So that's 1049 00:50:23,600 --> 00:50:25,919 Speaker 16: all we've done and maybe people come around to believe 1050 00:50:25,960 --> 00:50:26,360 Speaker 16: it someday. 1051 00:50:26,600 --> 00:50:28,600 Speaker 2: Is that a whole of government model you can sort 1052 00:50:28,600 --> 00:50:29,560 Speaker 2: of splash about the place. 1053 00:50:29,640 --> 00:50:35,040 Speaker 16: Now, Well, I certainly think there's other areas where you 1054 00:50:35,239 --> 00:50:37,879 Speaker 16: just ask yourself, white the slate clean. We're not doing 1055 00:50:37,920 --> 00:50:40,600 Speaker 16: it the old way at all. And if we had 1056 00:50:40,640 --> 00:50:43,960 Speaker 16: to solve this really clearly defined problem, how would we 1057 00:50:44,120 --> 00:50:46,400 Speaker 16: do it? And yeah, I'm thinking about a few other 1058 00:50:46,440 --> 00:50:48,000 Speaker 16: ways we might be able to do it, such as 1059 00:50:48,040 --> 00:50:49,040 Speaker 16: around school attendance. 1060 00:50:49,360 --> 00:50:53,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, what about the opportunity for businesses who can see 1061 00:50:53,239 --> 00:50:56,400 Speaker 2: a very very large program and they make something that 1062 00:50:56,600 --> 00:50:58,160 Speaker 2: is in the lunch, whether it be the rise, the 1063 00:50:58,239 --> 00:51:00,840 Speaker 2: chicken or the whatever, that can feed into that. Surely 1064 00:51:00,880 --> 00:51:02,040 Speaker 2: there's an opportunity there. 1065 00:51:03,480 --> 00:51:08,000 Speaker 16: Well, there's massive opportunities. We had almost twenty companies at 1066 00:51:08,080 --> 00:51:13,480 Speaker 16: the launch yesterday. You take Chickens for example, that they're 1067 00:51:13,520 --> 00:51:17,760 Speaker 16: taking eighteen tons of chicken every two weeks for this program. 1068 00:51:18,280 --> 00:51:21,000 Speaker 16: So I'd say, you know, good news for text and players, 1069 00:51:21,040 --> 00:51:22,640 Speaker 16: great news for kids, but disaster. 1070 00:51:22,719 --> 00:51:25,320 Speaker 2: If you're a pecond good to talk to, you appreciate it. 1071 00:51:25,440 --> 00:51:29,319 Speaker 2: David Seymour, Associate Minister of Education, eighteen minutes away from 1072 00:51:29,400 --> 00:51:34,840 Speaker 2: seven housing.

Cheap housing, high income. Wait 1089 00:52:26,880 --> 00:52:29,000 Speaker 2: till I get to the averages in a moment. Seventeen 1090 00:52:29,000 --> 00:52:29,319 Speaker 2: to two. 1091 00:52:30,719 --> 00:52:35,680 Speaker 1: Good the Mike Hosking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio 1092 00:52:35,960 --> 00:52:37,280 Speaker 1: powered by the News Talks. 1093 00:52:37,080 --> 00:52:39,800 Speaker 2: At Me fourteen to eight. You say, would you like 1094 00:52:39,800 --> 00:52:42,160 Speaker 2: about Seymour, Mike, but the man does get results? Good 1095 00:52:42,200 --> 00:52:44,560 Speaker 2: on David Seymour broken the cycle of madness, repeating the 1096 00:52:44,600 --> 00:52:46,920 Speaker 2: same thing and expecting a different result. Lots more to do, 1097 00:52:47,120 --> 00:52:49,480 Speaker 2: but great start, Mike. It's the parents job to feed 1098 00:52:49,520 --> 00:52:49,839 Speaker 2: their kids. 1099 00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:50,120 Speaker 10: Yeah. 1100 00:52:50,120 --> 00:52:52,359 Speaker 2: I tend to agree, Derek that that ship sailed. We're 1101 00:52:52,400 --> 00:52:55,120 Speaker 2: down the we're down the path of welfare in this country. 1102 00:52:55,239 --> 00:52:57,720 Speaker 2: I average all the average numbers. I found it fascinating 1103 00:52:57,760 --> 00:53:01,320 Speaker 2: the average. I gave you yesterday a couple of wayge averages, 1104 00:53:01,400 --> 00:53:04,000 Speaker 2: but the average are this is the Stats Department average 1105 00:53:04,040 --> 00:53:06,279 Speaker 2: wage in this country. And the problem with averages is 1106 00:53:06,320 --> 00:53:07,960 Speaker 2: there are no averages, of course, and that's how you 1107 00:53:08,000 --> 00:53:10,080 Speaker 2: get to averages. You get to averages by having people 1108 00:53:10,080 --> 00:53:12,440 Speaker 2: who aren't average, and some above and some below, and 1109 00:53:12,480 --> 00:53:14,000 Speaker 2: then you average it all out and you call it 1110 00:53:14,080 --> 00:53:16,719 Speaker 2: an average. But the average wage is sixteen hundred and 1111 00:53:16,760 --> 00:53:20,120 Speaker 2: twelve dollars. That's a week the per R eight coming 1112 00:53:20,160 --> 00:53:21,800 Speaker 2: in at forty one dollars and fifty two cent. So 1113 00:53:21,840 --> 00:53:23,200 Speaker 2: you can either feel good about that or you can 1114 00:53:23,239 --> 00:53:25,080 Speaker 2: feel bad about it, depending on where in life you are. 1115 00:53:25,120 --> 00:53:27,800 Speaker 2: The average house value in this country I found interesting 1116 00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:31,000 Speaker 2: eight hundred and five thousand dollars. The average KEYPI saver 1117 00:53:31,120 --> 00:53:34,480 Speaker 2: balance I found worryingly low at thirty three thousand, five 1118 00:53:34,560 --> 00:53:36,400 Speaker 2: hundred dollars. If you think that somehow is going to 1119 00:53:36,440 --> 00:53:40,160 Speaker 2: pay for your retirement, I'd second guess myself. Their savings account. 1120 00:53:40,200 --> 00:53:43,400 Speaker 2: The average savings account was had fifteen thousand dollars eight 1121 00:53:43,520 --> 00:53:46,000 Speaker 2: hundred and fifteen thousand, eight hundred dollars in the average 1122 00:53:46,000 --> 00:53:49,560 Speaker 2: savings account. Average home loan, well, if you're a first 1123 00:53:49,560 --> 00:53:51,960 Speaker 2: time it's over half a million's five hundred and fifty thousand. 1124 00:53:52,000 --> 00:53:55,279 Speaker 2: But if you're just an average home loaner, it's three 1125 00:53:55,320 --> 00:53:57,399 Speaker 2: hundred and eighteen thousand, one hundred and fifty one dollars. 1126 00:53:57,520 --> 00:53:59,600 Speaker 2: What's your credit card debt? The average credit card debt 1127 00:53:59,600 --> 00:54:02,239 Speaker 2: in this come tree is three thousand. But that gets 1128 00:54:02,320 --> 00:54:05,440 Speaker 2: complicated because is that a debted in your moment and 1129 00:54:05,480 --> 00:54:07,240 Speaker 2: when the bill comes due to you pay you three thousand. 1130 00:54:07,280 --> 00:54:09,040 Speaker 2: Now you pay your fifty seven dollars because you have to, 1131 00:54:09,120 --> 00:54:10,359 Speaker 2: and then you keep the rest and then it all 1132 00:54:10,400 --> 00:54:15,480 Speaker 2: adds up. Average credit score is actually quite good because 1133 00:54:15,480 --> 00:54:18,120 Speaker 2: you get a credit score between apparently three hundred and 1134 00:54:18,160 --> 00:54:20,959 Speaker 2: eight hundred and fifty three hundred not good, eight hundred 1135 00:54:20,960 --> 00:54:23,840 Speaker 2: and fifty fabulous, average score seven to fifty two, So 1136 00:54:24,000 --> 00:54:26,319 Speaker 2: we're quite Good's that means you can go and tap 1137 00:54:26,360 --> 00:54:28,120 Speaker 2: into a bit more money. Food bill? How much do 1138 00:54:28,200 --> 00:54:31,160 Speaker 2: we spend each week? I was astonished at this. The 1139 00:54:31,320 --> 00:54:35,080 Speaker 2: average is three hundred dollars a week on food. One 1140 00:54:35,160 --> 00:54:38,640 Speaker 2: hundred and thirty nine of that's on general grocery, thirty 1141 00:54:38,760 --> 00:54:42,000 Speaker 2: is on restaurants, twenty three a week on alcoholic beverages. 1142 00:54:42,360 --> 00:54:45,879 Speaker 2: What's the twenty three? Is that one bottle of wine? 1143 00:54:46,360 --> 00:54:46,799 Speaker 10: Do you think? 1144 00:54:47,560 --> 00:54:47,920 Speaker 3: Or is that? 1145 00:54:48,560 --> 00:54:48,600 Speaker 10: What? 1146 00:54:48,719 --> 00:54:53,640 Speaker 2: Would you get two bourbon and cokes at a what's 1147 00:54:53,680 --> 00:54:55,480 Speaker 2: a bourbon and coke cost? I don't know what a 1148 00:54:55,520 --> 00:54:57,560 Speaker 2: boermin and co costs. It appears where you go, that's 1149 00:54:57,840 --> 00:54:59,720 Speaker 2: what That's what I'm saying, and that's why we have averages. 1150 00:54:59,719 --> 00:55:01,439 Speaker 2: Glenn sort of spoils it, doesn't it. You can spend 1151 00:55:01,480 --> 00:55:03,200 Speaker 2: I reckon you could spend eighteen dollars on a bourbon 1152 00:55:03,239 --> 00:55:06,280 Speaker 2: and coke. You could, Yeah, exactly. You'd be foolish if. 1153 00:55:06,280 --> 00:55:09,200 Speaker 11: Had a flash ice cube and an umbrowler on the side. 1154 00:55:09,280 --> 00:55:11,520 Speaker 2: Precisely, what's a cheap bourbon and coke with? Well, what's 1155 00:55:11,560 --> 00:55:13,040 Speaker 2: the cheapest bourbon and coke? Where would you go and 1156 00:55:13,080 --> 00:55:13,719 Speaker 2: get right home? 1157 00:55:15,080 --> 00:55:19,560 Speaker 11: That would be we ride poor cheap one. Mind. You 1158 00:55:19,640 --> 00:55:22,160 Speaker 11: can't buy a bottle like a proper bottle of bourbon 1159 00:55:22,600 --> 00:55:23,799 Speaker 11: for twenty three dollars. 1160 00:55:23,640 --> 00:55:25,480 Speaker 2: No, you can't, precisely, So you'd have to save up 1161 00:55:25,520 --> 00:55:28,320 Speaker 2: two locks two weeks worth of savings. 1162 00:55:28,040 --> 00:55:30,719 Speaker 11: And make it last. Maybe that bottle lasts for two weeks. 1163 00:55:30,840 --> 00:55:32,640 Speaker 2: How much of the bottle of bourbon cost. 1164 00:55:33,520 --> 00:55:35,799 Speaker 11: At least forty five dollars exactly. 1165 00:55:36,040 --> 00:55:37,560 Speaker 2: So two weeks is forty six. You haven't got the 1166 00:55:37,600 --> 00:55:39,719 Speaker 2: money for the coke, so as you're into your third 1167 00:55:39,719 --> 00:55:41,360 Speaker 2: week of savings now for goodness sake, and then the 1168 00:55:41,400 --> 00:55:42,800 Speaker 2: coke will go flatten the third well. 1169 00:55:42,680 --> 00:55:45,120 Speaker 11: God, it's complic to my general growthrey. 1170 00:55:45,040 --> 00:55:48,759 Speaker 2: Exactly thirty five dollars a week on clothes. See, you're 1171 00:55:48,800 --> 00:55:50,560 Speaker 2: not buying one on every color at thirty five dollars 1172 00:55:50,600 --> 00:55:52,279 Speaker 2: a week. Are You're not at thirty five dollars a week. 1173 00:55:52,480 --> 00:55:54,200 Speaker 11: Let's get one color a week exactly. 1174 00:55:54,280 --> 00:55:56,080 Speaker 2: You're not going in there and saying, ah, one on 1175 00:55:56,160 --> 00:55:59,200 Speaker 2: every color. There's no one going into Frederick's. Are they 1176 00:56:00,000 --> 00:56:02,200 Speaker 2: seven dollars eighty on footwear? It's not a lot to 1177 00:56:02,360 --> 00:56:06,680 Speaker 2: have to pay seven dollars eighty on footwear? Rent five 1178 00:56:06,800 --> 00:56:09,000 Speaker 2: sixty eight, that's fairly well known. Power bill is interesting, 1179 00:56:09,400 --> 00:56:11,680 Speaker 2: two hundred dollars. Does that surprise you? On average a 1180 00:56:11,760 --> 00:56:12,759 Speaker 2: month two hundred bucks? 1181 00:56:14,640 --> 00:56:15,200 Speaker 3: So there you go. 1182 00:56:15,520 --> 00:56:18,000 Speaker 2: If you if all those numbers tellied with you your 1183 00:56:18,080 --> 00:56:22,200 Speaker 2: average and congratulations, ten away from eight cost. 1184 00:56:22,160 --> 00:56:25,720 Speaker 1: Breakfast with a Veda retirement communities news dogs. 1185 00:56:25,760 --> 00:56:27,600 Speaker 2: That'd be Mike. You really can't get a bottle of 1186 00:56:27,640 --> 00:56:30,960 Speaker 2: bourbon for under eighty Well. 1187 00:56:31,160 --> 00:56:33,160 Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean if you're talking proper decent burbon. 1188 00:56:33,239 --> 00:56:35,719 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, I was trying to sound relatable. That was all. 1189 00:56:35,800 --> 00:56:37,279 Speaker 11: I mean, if you are going to mix it with coke, 1190 00:56:37,320 --> 00:56:39,400 Speaker 11: it doesn't matter quite so much the quality of the bourbon. 1191 00:56:39,480 --> 00:56:41,920 Speaker 2: That is true, got a realousy check from the Calm Games. 1192 00:56:42,320 --> 00:56:44,600 Speaker 2: Not only has it been switched from Victoria to Glasgow, 1193 00:56:44,760 --> 00:56:47,760 Speaker 2: it's a seriously trimmed down event. Rugby seven's hockey, road cycling, 1194 00:56:47,800 --> 00:56:50,920 Speaker 2: mountain biking, triathlon, cricket wrestling all gone. There's only ten 1195 00:56:51,080 --> 00:56:53,839 Speaker 2: events remaining. The Olympic Committee CEO is Nicky Nickel, who 1196 00:56:53,920 --> 00:56:56,920 Speaker 2: was with us Good Morning Mike. The criteria as to 1197 00:56:57,000 --> 00:56:59,239 Speaker 2: what made it and what didn't, does it make sense 1198 00:56:59,320 --> 00:57:00,680 Speaker 2: to you as a bit of a crapshoot. 1199 00:57:02,320 --> 00:57:04,080 Speaker 17: Well, really, what it came down to when you look 1200 00:57:04,080 --> 00:57:06,120 Speaker 17: at the sports for the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow is 1201 00:57:07,080 --> 00:57:09,840 Speaker 17: it became a financial envelope that the Commerce Games Scotland 1202 00:57:09,840 --> 00:57:12,160 Speaker 17: we're trying to work within. So they've chosen for venues 1203 00:57:12,200 --> 00:57:14,920 Speaker 17: in an eight mile corridor and that really drove the 1204 00:57:15,000 --> 00:57:17,600 Speaker 17: sports that fitted within that. And so that was really 1205 00:57:17,840 --> 00:57:20,240 Speaker 17: what it came down to for these games. And then 1206 00:57:20,320 --> 00:57:22,120 Speaker 17: as we look forward, we expect we'll be back at 1207 00:57:22,160 --> 00:57:22,640 Speaker 17: the games. 1208 00:57:22,480 --> 00:57:23,360 Speaker 15: Of old that we all love. 1209 00:57:23,560 --> 00:57:25,920 Speaker 2: So if you had a track or a court, you 1210 00:57:26,040 --> 00:57:27,840 Speaker 2: might be in. If you didn't have whatever you needed, 1211 00:57:27,920 --> 00:57:31,240 Speaker 2: you wouldn't be Having said that in your note of optimism, 1212 00:57:31,520 --> 00:57:33,800 Speaker 2: what makes you think the Commonwealth Games really have a 1213 00:57:33,840 --> 00:57:35,240 Speaker 2: future given where we're at currently. 1214 00:57:36,600 --> 00:57:38,480 Speaker 17: Well, I think it's really important first and foremost for 1215 00:57:38,520 --> 00:57:41,640 Speaker 17: the athletes. And so when I've spoken and communicated with 1216 00:57:41,880 --> 00:57:43,880 Speaker 17: the sports that haven't made the program over the last 1217 00:57:43,880 --> 00:57:46,680 Speaker 17: twenty four hours, it's really reinforced to me how important 1218 00:57:46,680 --> 00:57:49,280 Speaker 17: the Commonwealth Games are in particularly if we look at 1219 00:57:49,920 --> 00:57:52,840 Speaker 17: athletes who competed in Birmingham which was just hugely successful, 1220 00:57:52,880 --> 00:57:55,280 Speaker 17: and then through to Paris, sixty percent of those athletes 1221 00:57:55,320 --> 00:57:57,880 Speaker 17: from the Kiwi team made the top eight. So we 1222 00:57:58,000 --> 00:57:59,880 Speaker 17: know it's a really important program as part of the 1223 00:58:00,040 --> 00:58:03,400 Speaker 17: multi sport event. But this year, sadly, just on the 1224 00:58:03,440 --> 00:58:06,840 Speaker 17: back of the unprecedented behavior from our friends across the ditch, 1225 00:58:07,120 --> 00:58:09,680 Speaker 17: we are where we are and we will do the 1226 00:58:09,720 --> 00:58:12,160 Speaker 17: best we can. And certainly for those other sports that 1227 00:58:12,280 --> 00:58:14,240 Speaker 17: missed out, we know that they're already thinking about, well, 1228 00:58:14,280 --> 00:58:16,560 Speaker 17: what are some alternatives for them to get that competition. 1229 00:58:16,920 --> 00:58:19,400 Speaker 2: The reality is it's not about the sports. It's about 1230 00:58:19,560 --> 00:58:21,560 Speaker 2: is there a town or a city somewhere that has 1231 00:58:21,600 --> 00:58:24,000 Speaker 2: the wherewithal the desire and the budget to put it 1232 00:58:24,120 --> 00:58:26,080 Speaker 2: on properly? What do you reckon? The answer to that is. 1233 00:58:27,360 --> 00:58:29,240 Speaker 17: Well, I think there definitely is, and you know, I've 1234 00:58:29,280 --> 00:58:32,240 Speaker 17: just been up to the Pacific Games Council meeting and 1235 00:58:32,360 --> 00:58:35,040 Speaker 17: you know, just looking at even having sport competitions in 1236 00:58:35,080 --> 00:58:37,720 Speaker 17: the Pacific, the interest is really high. So what we're 1237 00:58:37,760 --> 00:58:39,120 Speaker 17: going to do is make sure that the model is 1238 00:58:39,160 --> 00:58:42,600 Speaker 17: sustainable and certainly what has happened through this process is 1239 00:58:42,680 --> 00:58:46,680 Speaker 17: we have seen Scotland be really rigorous and robust around 1240 00:58:46,720 --> 00:58:48,880 Speaker 17: making sure it is much more cost effective. So while 1241 00:58:48,920 --> 00:58:52,440 Speaker 17: it's a small program, it has become a baseline for us. 1242 00:58:52,480 --> 00:58:54,720 Speaker 17: And I'm heading to Glasgow tonight to understand more about 1243 00:58:54,720 --> 00:58:55,480 Speaker 17: how that model works. 1244 00:58:55,480 --> 00:58:57,600 Speaker 2: All right, will you travel well? I appreciate it.

He shops, as it 1254 00:59:26,880 --> 00:59:29,200 Speaker 2: turns out, we discovered this morning at the award winning 1255 00:59:29,280 --> 00:59:31,640 Speaker 2: butchery that makes the best sausage in the country. And 1256 00:59:31,760 --> 00:59:33,320 Speaker 2: he doesn't buy the pork and leak.

I can't make the stuff up, so the 1259 00:59:39,400 --> 00:59:43,240 Speaker 2: producer of this program eats wild boar and truffle sausages. 1260 00:59:43,280 --> 00:59:45,440 Speaker 2: I mean, how do you stay in touch when you're 1261 00:59:45,480 --> 00:59:47,760 Speaker 2: living in an elevated world like that, when that's sort 1262 00:59:47,800 --> 00:59:49,200 Speaker 2: of rarefied air and nonsense. 1263 00:59:49,320 --> 00:59:51,480 Speaker 11: Don't get him started on chocolate bars exactly. 1264 00:59:51,920 --> 00:59:54,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's the guy who drives eight hundred miles to 1265 00:59:54,320 --> 00:59:57,040 Speaker 2: Sharon's house in South Auckland to buy be the Weirds 1266 00:59:57,200 --> 00:59:59,880 Speaker 2: Saudi Eurrapan.

Karen. I'll start with you, 1289 01:01:26,120 --> 01:01:27,560 Speaker 2: seeing you're a bit of a guest on the program. 1290 01:01:27,680 --> 01:01:31,160 Speaker 2: So when you deal with Andrew Bailey and Darlene Tanner 1291 01:01:31,240 --> 01:01:33,080 Speaker 2: as we did yesterday and of course pulled the trigger 1292 01:01:33,120 --> 01:01:37,160 Speaker 2: on the Wellington City Council, is our expectation of public 1293 01:01:37,280 --> 01:01:41,680 Speaker 2: representation artificially high? And really these people are just, you know, 1294 01:01:41,920 --> 01:01:44,240 Speaker 2: examples of people we know in regular life, and somehow 1295 01:01:44,320 --> 01:01:46,720 Speaker 2: we expect people in public life to be better or 1296 01:01:47,320 --> 01:01:48,520 Speaker 2: should we expect better? 1297 01:01:50,320 --> 01:01:52,960 Speaker 21: I think on the whole you get a very high 1298 01:01:53,080 --> 01:01:58,040 Speaker 21: standard from public servants in this country. But when people 1299 01:01:58,200 --> 01:02:02,240 Speaker 21: slip off that, it's fair enough to ask Christians it 1300 01:02:02,600 --> 01:02:05,320 Speaker 21: doesn't matter what you do for a job, going up 1301 01:02:05,360 --> 01:02:07,120 Speaker 21: to someone and calling them a loser and doing the 1302 01:02:07,280 --> 01:02:11,120 Speaker 21: l signs probably not appropriate. But I was asked about 1303 01:02:11,160 --> 01:02:13,120 Speaker 21: it yesterday and I said, look, I'm never going to 1304 01:02:13,200 --> 01:02:15,560 Speaker 21: criticize someone for swearing because I'd be a hypocrite. 1305 01:02:15,840 --> 01:02:18,000 Speaker 8: But I wouldn't do that, So that's fair question asked. 1306 01:02:18,840 --> 01:02:20,520 Speaker 2: But what about Tana? How do you explain that? 1307 01:02:21,920 --> 01:02:22,120 Speaker 5: Yeah? 1308 01:02:22,120 --> 01:02:24,000 Speaker 21: Well, I mean, look, they've gone through a process that 1309 01:02:24,000 --> 01:02:26,400 Speaker 21: I've deemed that she wasn't honest and dealt with it, 1310 01:02:27,440 --> 01:02:28,680 Speaker 21: in their view appropriately. 1311 01:02:29,880 --> 01:02:32,520 Speaker 8: Anyone in any walk of life, if they are deemed to. 1312 01:02:32,520 --> 01:02:36,120 Speaker 21: Have misled their employers, which is the claim at Stakecare, 1313 01:02:36,560 --> 01:02:38,840 Speaker 21: then they need to be dealt with And so is 1314 01:02:38,920 --> 01:02:40,480 Speaker 21: it any different to any other job. 1315 01:02:40,720 --> 01:02:41,280 Speaker 8: Probably not. 1316 01:02:41,520 --> 01:02:43,320 Speaker 2: Now that's what I'm saying. What do you recommend? Should 1317 01:02:43,360 --> 01:02:45,880 Speaker 2: we expect more? Do we expect more or not? 1318 01:02:47,360 --> 01:02:49,280 Speaker 10: No? I think you should. You should. 1319 01:02:49,440 --> 01:02:52,560 Speaker 22: The public should expect high levels of behavior and standards 1320 01:02:52,600 --> 01:02:55,880 Speaker 22: from people that they vote in to go and represent them, 1321 01:02:56,240 --> 01:02:58,920 Speaker 22: whether it be at local government level, regional or central 1322 01:02:58,920 --> 01:03:00,600 Speaker 22: government level down to here with you and an eye. 1323 01:03:00,720 --> 01:03:03,280 Speaker 22: So no, there should be a level of expectation around 1324 01:03:03,360 --> 01:03:04,880 Speaker 22: that at the end of the day, in piece of 1325 01:03:04,960 --> 01:03:08,560 Speaker 22: human as well, and and and and make mistakes as 1326 01:03:08,600 --> 01:03:11,120 Speaker 22: lot's the way they deal with them.

Kira MacNulty for 1430 01:07:09,640 --> 01:07:12,440 Speaker 2: Ginny Anderson Mark Mitchell along for the ride as always 1431 01:07:12,520 --> 01:07:14,240 Speaker 2: this morning, Kieren. I think it was you the other day. 1432 01:07:14,240 --> 01:07:16,960 Speaker 2: I saw quoted this business of Wellington and you were 1433 01:07:17,000 --> 01:07:18,200 Speaker 2: running the line that it was a bit of a 1434 01:07:18,240 --> 01:07:20,760 Speaker 2: smoke screen for the government, et cetera. Did what the 1435 01:07:20,840 --> 01:07:25,600 Speaker 2: government do for Wellington yesterday make sense or what would 1436 01:07:25,640 --> 01:07:28,520 Speaker 2: it have required from your point of view before you 1437 01:07:28,560 --> 01:07:29,440 Speaker 2: would to pull the trigger? 1438 01:07:30,160 --> 01:07:33,120 Speaker 21: Well, it's one of the topics that I can speak 1439 01:07:33,160 --> 01:07:36,240 Speaker 21: on with some authority, having been Minister of Local Government 1440 01:07:36,280 --> 01:07:40,160 Speaker 21: previously and having many people asking me to consider intervention 1441 01:07:40,280 --> 01:07:43,800 Speaker 21: in other councils. My point was really clear that the 1442 01:07:43,880 --> 01:07:46,560 Speaker 21: government shouldn't be waiting in and shooting their mouth. 1443 01:07:46,400 --> 01:07:48,440 Speaker 8: Off before they get the advice from DIA. 1444 01:07:49,080 --> 01:07:52,720 Speaker 21: That advice is critical to any decision and we still 1445 01:07:52,720 --> 01:07:54,520 Speaker 21: haven't seen it, so I can't give you an honest 1446 01:07:54,600 --> 01:07:57,280 Speaker 21: answer until the Minister releases. 1447 01:07:57,080 --> 01:07:59,760 Speaker 2: But he's got it, so he's got the in the 1448 01:08:00,200 --> 01:08:01,360 Speaker 2: it does, but your. 1449 01:08:01,320 --> 01:08:03,080 Speaker 8: Question was if they've done the right thing. Well, I 1450 01:08:03,160 --> 01:08:05,080 Speaker 8: need to see the advice to give you an honest answer. 1451 01:08:05,360 --> 01:08:07,960 Speaker 21: But ultimately what we're talking about is pretty much the 1452 01:08:08,080 --> 01:08:12,360 Speaker 21: lowest form of intervention, a Crown observer solely for the 1453 01:08:12,480 --> 01:08:14,920 Speaker 21: process for the long Term Plan. It's not across all 1454 01:08:15,000 --> 01:08:19,080 Speaker 21: Council operations, and in the hierarchy of interventions, this is 1455 01:08:19,120 --> 01:08:21,800 Speaker 21: about as low as you can get. The way the 1456 01:08:21,840 --> 01:08:25,400 Speaker 21: government ministers were talking last week, everyone thought that a 1457 01:08:25,479 --> 01:08:28,000 Speaker 21: commissioner was on the cards. The minister wouldn't rule out 1458 01:08:28,040 --> 01:08:30,680 Speaker 21: whether they would call a fresh election. So clearly the 1459 01:08:30,760 --> 01:08:33,920 Speaker 21: advice didn't match what they were saying. But nevertheless it 1460 01:08:34,040 --> 01:08:36,679 Speaker 21: had to have been enough to warrant an observer, otherwise 1461 01:08:36,680 --> 01:08:38,800 Speaker 21: they couldn't do it. I do want to see the 1462 01:08:38,840 --> 01:08:41,040 Speaker 21: advice before I can comment beyond that day not a 1463 01:08:41,080 --> 01:08:43,280 Speaker 21: bad point, mate, Well, I. 1464 01:08:43,360 --> 01:08:46,080 Speaker 10: Just think that Simon definitely would have considered all the advice. 1465 01:08:46,120 --> 01:08:48,080 Speaker 22: That has become really obvious, and the Government has been 1466 01:08:48,120 --> 01:08:51,000 Speaker 22: concerned about the Council's ability to manage the Long Term 1467 01:08:51,040 --> 01:08:54,240 Speaker 22: Plan amendment and adoption process. I mean, we saw what 1468 01:08:54,360 --> 01:08:57,439 Speaker 22: happened with the airport shues and the fact that now 1469 01:08:57,479 --> 01:09:00,840 Speaker 22: they're having to rewrite the long term plan and so 1470 01:09:01,360 --> 01:09:03,800 Speaker 22: uh and we are we do things. Think these three 1471 01:09:04,040 --> 01:09:06,479 Speaker 22: things through very carefully, am I. I had the situation 1472 01:09:06,960 --> 01:09:09,200 Speaker 22: and will with the last weather event and making sure 1473 01:09:09,240 --> 01:09:12,880 Speaker 22: that we keep the recovery going. So Siming would have 1474 01:09:12,920 --> 01:09:14,080 Speaker 22: put a lot of thought into this. We've got a 1475 01:09:14,439 --> 01:09:17,280 Speaker 22: Crown observer in there now and we're going to start 1476 01:09:17,320 --> 01:09:18,479 Speaker 22: to trying to get things back on trip. 1477 01:09:18,600 --> 01:09:19,639 Speaker 2: We didn't know, Mike. 1478 01:09:19,720 --> 01:09:22,240 Speaker 21: We didn't criticize that decision and WHI we thought that 1479 01:09:22,320 --> 01:09:25,160 Speaker 21: was appropriate. So it's not a case of opposing decisions 1480 01:09:25,240 --> 01:09:26,479 Speaker 21: just for the sake of it. We've got to take 1481 01:09:26,520 --> 01:09:27,759 Speaker 21: it on a case by case basis. 1482 01:09:28,000 --> 01:09:30,160 Speaker 2: Do you find yourself as a more moderate member of 1483 01:09:30,200 --> 01:09:32,120 Speaker 2: the Labor caucus there, Karen, I'm. 1484 01:09:32,000 --> 01:09:37,000 Speaker 8: Finding well, I would consider that. I don't know what 1485 01:09:37,120 --> 01:09:39,960 Speaker 8: you guys think, but I like considering myself reason moderate. 1486 01:09:40,120 --> 01:09:41,600 Speaker 2: Having said, we did an interview the other day and 1487 01:09:41,640 --> 01:09:43,160 Speaker 2: I can't remember when there was a couple of days ago. 1488 01:09:43,240 --> 01:09:45,840 Speaker 2: So one of these regional authorities or bodies or local 1489 01:09:45,880 --> 01:09:48,439 Speaker 2: government people are looking into this problem that we have 1490 01:09:48,560 --> 01:09:51,400 Speaker 2: of nobody turning up at local elections, and we've got 1491 01:09:51,439 --> 01:09:54,040 Speaker 2: one next year. Do you have any obvious answers as 1492 01:09:54,080 --> 01:09:55,680 Speaker 2: to what can be done in this country. And this 1493 01:09:55,800 --> 01:09:58,720 Speaker 2: ties into Wellington and they're ineptitude. What is it that 1494 01:09:58,840 --> 01:10:01,240 Speaker 2: will get us in game aged in local politics? 1495 01:10:02,360 --> 01:10:04,360 Speaker 21: Yeah, it's a really good question, and it's actually one 1496 01:10:04,439 --> 01:10:06,320 Speaker 21: I've been thinking about quite a lot. 1497 01:10:06,400 --> 01:10:07,840 Speaker 8: I mean, at the end of the day, when you're. 1498 01:10:07,720 --> 01:10:11,040 Speaker 21: In opposition one, you've got to respond to what the 1499 01:10:11,120 --> 01:10:14,040 Speaker 21: government's doing. Note I didn't say ip pose, but respond, 1500 01:10:14,160 --> 01:10:16,400 Speaker 21: and the other one is actually working on some policies. 1501 01:10:17,120 --> 01:10:19,840 Speaker 21: And as local government spokesperson, this is something I think 1502 01:10:19,880 --> 01:10:20,400 Speaker 21: about a lot. 1503 01:10:20,479 --> 01:10:23,719 Speaker 8: At the end of the day. Local government is really important. 1504 01:10:23,920 --> 01:10:26,719 Speaker 21: It's crucial when it touches every aspect of our daily life. 1505 01:10:27,560 --> 01:10:31,760 Speaker 21: But we get such low turnout. Is it because what 1506 01:10:31,960 --> 01:10:35,400 Speaker 21: people see in local government is not reflective of their community, 1507 01:10:35,880 --> 01:10:38,400 Speaker 21: or is it because the structure of local government means 1508 01:10:38,479 --> 01:10:40,760 Speaker 21: that not everyone is able to put their hand up. 1509 01:10:40,840 --> 01:10:43,360 Speaker 21: Because if you think about it, especially where I live, 1510 01:10:43,720 --> 01:10:46,639 Speaker 21: we've got some very small councils, and councilors get paid 1511 01:10:46,880 --> 01:10:49,360 Speaker 21: a relatively small amount to do what is essentially a 1512 01:10:49,439 --> 01:10:53,439 Speaker 21: full time job. You're asking workers and people with families 1513 01:10:53,520 --> 01:10:56,439 Speaker 21: to give up paid employment to serve their communities that 1514 01:10:56,600 --> 01:11:00,759 Speaker 21: doesn't necessarily lend itself to always the right people coming forward, 1515 01:11:00,960 --> 01:11:02,559 Speaker 21: So that's got to be something that's locked at. 1516 01:11:03,040 --> 01:11:05,760 Speaker 22: Yeah, I look, I just I don't know where there's 1517 01:11:05,800 --> 01:11:08,439 Speaker 22: a bit of fatigue around vote of the tea, around 1518 01:11:08,800 --> 01:11:12,000 Speaker 22: local government elections. I think that you always see the 1519 01:11:12,080 --> 01:11:15,320 Speaker 22: dysfunction of the media, you know, And I can say 1520 01:11:15,640 --> 01:11:18,360 Speaker 22: with my emergency management head on which Kieran had on 1521 01:11:18,479 --> 01:11:21,120 Speaker 22: before me, is that getting around the country, I see 1522 01:11:21,160 --> 01:11:23,800 Speaker 22: outstanding leaders. I see outstanding the years in councilors and 1523 01:11:23,880 --> 01:11:27,080 Speaker 22: councilors doing their job. So but you know, it's always 1524 01:11:27,120 --> 01:11:29,080 Speaker 22: the sort of it's always on the margins and stuff 1525 01:11:29,120 --> 01:11:31,599 Speaker 22: that's reported through the media. I think that that does 1526 01:11:31,680 --> 01:11:34,240 Speaker 22: take people's view and it does affect their motivation when 1527 01:11:34,280 --> 01:11:35,519 Speaker 22: it comes time to come out and vote. 1528 01:11:36,080 --> 01:11:39,760 Speaker 21: See, local government is often a convenient whipping boy. We 1529 01:11:39,840 --> 01:11:42,000 Speaker 21: saw that earlier the year at Local Government conference. But 1530 01:11:42,040 --> 01:11:43,800 Speaker 21: at the end of the day, every single person that's 1531 01:11:43,840 --> 01:11:46,160 Speaker 21: involved in local government has committed to their communities and 1532 01:11:46,240 --> 01:11:46,760 Speaker 21: doing their best. 1533 01:11:46,800 --> 01:11:47,120 Speaker 3: All right. 1534 01:11:47,160 --> 01:11:49,360 Speaker 2: Well, so yeah, I appreciate it very Muchkieren MCANNAUGHI Marke 1535 01:11:49,400 --> 01:11:51,720 Speaker 2: Mitchell for another Wednesdays A twenty one already. 1536 01:11:52,120 --> 01:11:55,280 Speaker 1: The masting breakfast with the range rover of the line 1537 01:11:55,479 --> 01:11:56,160 Speaker 1: news towards them. 1538 01:11:57,200 --> 01:11:59,320 Speaker 2: Now with all the family members, you might see a 1539 01:11:59,360 --> 01:12:02,439 Speaker 2: steady decline or maybe a sudden change after a fall 1540 01:12:02,560 --> 01:12:04,400 Speaker 2: or an operation. So very important you make the right 1541 01:12:04,479 --> 01:12:06,760 Speaker 2: decision on finding the right care for now and into 1542 01:12:06,800 --> 01:12:09,120 Speaker 2: the future.

I told you yesterday. 1565 01:13:11,439 --> 01:13:13,479 Speaker 2: A couple of people in the game have suggested to 1566 01:13:13,600 --> 01:13:17,439 Speaker 2: me reasonably knowledgeably that they would not be surprised at 1567 01:13:17,479 --> 01:13:21,599 Speaker 2: Perez completes the race and announces some sort of retirement, 1568 01:13:21,640 --> 01:13:24,920 Speaker 2: his connection to Mexico being obvious. Motorsport dot Com this 1569 01:13:25,080 --> 01:13:28,640 Speaker 2: morning are suggesting that Honda are getting a little bit 1570 01:13:28,640 --> 01:13:31,479 Speaker 2: angsty around Sonoda. Sonoda's there because of Honda, of course, 1571 01:13:31,560 --> 01:13:33,240 Speaker 2: and the team, and they've been pushing very, very hard 1572 01:13:33,320 --> 01:13:36,160 Speaker 2: for Sonoda to be given the Red Bull job. If 1573 01:13:36,280 --> 01:13:40,240 Speaker 2: Perez is booted. Helmet Marco once again has quoted he's 1574 01:13:40,280 --> 01:13:42,560 Speaker 2: going to get an opportunity Sonoda at the end of 1575 01:13:42,600 --> 01:13:45,960 Speaker 2: the season. But what the reference appears to be is 1576 01:13:46,080 --> 01:13:48,040 Speaker 2: there's a sort of a test drive that takes place 1577 01:13:48,080 --> 01:13:49,760 Speaker 2: at the end of the season, so he's talking about 1578 01:13:49,760 --> 01:13:51,600 Speaker 2: aber Dhabi. At the last race of the season, they 1579 01:13:51,640 --> 01:13:53,640 Speaker 2: do a bit of testing on the Tuesday after they 1580 01:13:53,760 --> 01:13:55,880 Speaker 2: run a couple of cars, and of course maxisill on 1581 01:13:55,960 --> 01:13:58,759 Speaker 2: holiday at this particular point, so I'll stick Goldne Yuki 1582 01:13:58,840 --> 01:14:01,679 Speaker 2: in there and do that. The problem with Yuki Sonoda 1583 01:14:01,880 --> 01:14:05,120 Speaker 2: has always been that he's a hot head. He's calmed 1584 01:14:05,160 --> 01:14:07,120 Speaker 2: a little bit, and he certainly has results proved that 1585 01:14:07,200 --> 01:14:09,400 Speaker 2: he's a very very good driver, and he was beating 1586 01:14:09,520 --> 01:14:12,400 Speaker 2: Ricardo left, right and center, and he's a good performance driver, 1587 01:14:12,600 --> 01:14:16,640 Speaker 2: but he doesn't handle pressure well and they've always had 1588 01:14:16,640 --> 01:14:18,600 Speaker 2: a bit of an issue. And I suspect also the 1589 01:14:18,720 --> 01:14:23,160 Speaker 2: connection with Honda, muddy's the water slightly. Is he there 1590 01:14:23,200 --> 01:14:25,360 Speaker 2: because he's brilliant or is he there because of Honda 1591 01:14:25,560 --> 01:14:26,840 Speaker 2: and Hondai. You got to remember in a couple of 1592 01:14:26,960 --> 01:14:28,799 Speaker 2: years time are no longer going to be supplying engines 1593 01:14:28,840 --> 01:14:32,519 Speaker 2: to Red Bull and so therefore with Honda, does you know? 1594 01:14:32,680 --> 01:14:34,640 Speaker 2: So it seems that Liam is on the up and up. 1595 01:14:35,400 --> 01:14:37,920 Speaker 2: The commentary around Liam as of the last twenty four 1596 01:14:37,920 --> 01:14:40,920 Speaker 2: to forty eight hours is increasing in intensity, especially I 1597 01:14:40,920 --> 01:14:42,439 Speaker 2: mean he's got to perform. He's got to keep performing. 1598 01:14:42,479 --> 01:14:44,120 Speaker 2: Obviously you can't. You know, it's not just one drive 1599 01:14:44,160 --> 01:14:46,000 Speaker 2: and he's in. But if he does the same in 1600 01:14:46,080 --> 01:14:48,439 Speaker 2: Mexico this weekend as he did in Austin last weekend, 1601 01:14:48,439 --> 01:14:50,960 Speaker 2: and then goes on maybe even to repeat it in Brazil, 1602 01:14:51,960 --> 01:14:54,560 Speaker 2: we are talking about some big, big news coming his 1603 01:14:54,680 --> 01:14:57,120 Speaker 2: way before I suspect the end of the season news. 1604 01:14:57,160 --> 01:14:58,599 Speaker 2: It a couple of moments for you. Then let's get 1605 01:14:58,640 --> 01:15:01,400 Speaker 2: across the Tasman to Steve Price. He written news talk. 1606 01:15:01,320 --> 01:15:06,280 Speaker 1: Zedby setting the news agenda and digging into the issues. 1607 01:15:06,680 --> 01:15:10,479 Speaker 1: The Mike Hosking Breakfast with Bailey's real Estate, your local 1608 01:15:10,560 --> 01:15:14,360 Speaker 1: experts across residential, commercial and rural newstalks headb. 1609 01:15:14,439 --> 01:15:17,720 Speaker 2: No consumer have done another one of the pointless exercises. 1610 01:15:17,840 --> 01:15:19,960 Speaker 2: Are the headline they got, which is I'm assuming what 1611 01:15:20,000 --> 01:15:22,280 Speaker 2: they're after, a bit of the old clickbait, a ripoff 1612 01:15:23,080 --> 01:15:26,479 Speaker 2: consumer warning over ear New Zealand school holiday fairs. And 1613 01:15:26,600 --> 01:15:29,439 Speaker 2: the way they did it another one of the little 1614 01:15:29,479 --> 01:15:32,120 Speaker 2: projects that concludes the inevitable at the end of the day. 1615 01:15:32,160 --> 01:15:33,599 Speaker 2: Let me come back to it in a couple of moments. 1616 01:15:33,640 --> 01:15:36,439 Speaker 2: Mike Liam on his fifty fourth lap did the eight 1617 01:15:36,560 --> 01:15:38,479 Speaker 2: fastest time ahead of a stap In in Praiers is 1618 01:15:38,560 --> 01:15:41,320 Speaker 2: very good stat Mike. I followed Liam closely, especially now 1619 01:15:41,360 --> 01:15:43,080 Speaker 2: we've got an F one driver doing so well. I 1620 01:15:43,120 --> 01:15:45,960 Speaker 2: couldn't believe my eyes with the tab giving odds of 1621 01:15:46,120 --> 01:15:49,719 Speaker 2: five to one of Liam finishing ahead of his teammate. 1622 01:15:50,360 --> 01:15:52,360 Speaker 2: So I put one hundred dollars on UZI earned the 1623 01:15:52,400 --> 01:15:54,960 Speaker 2: easiest four hundred dollars I ever Ham It's an odd 1624 01:15:55,000 --> 01:15:57,200 Speaker 2: odd twenty three minutes away from. 1625 01:15:57,120 --> 01:16:01,439 Speaker 12: Nine international correspondence with said I insurance. The peace of 1626 01:16:01,520 --> 01:16:03,920 Speaker 12: mind for New Zealand business was in. 1627 01:16:03,960 --> 01:16:06,360 Speaker 2: Australian mate, how are you very well? 1628 01:16:06,400 --> 01:16:06,640 Speaker 5: Thank you? 1629 01:16:06,920 --> 01:16:09,439 Speaker 2: Lydia thought, what an embarrassment of a woman. What are 1630 01:16:09,439 --> 01:16:10,360 Speaker 2: they going to do about her? 1631 01:16:11,280 --> 01:16:13,840 Speaker 5: Well, not much they can do about her. This, of course, 1632 01:16:13,960 --> 01:16:16,840 Speaker 5: is the woman who decided to storm into the Great 1633 01:16:16,880 --> 01:16:20,559 Speaker 5: Hall in Canberra and start shouting about how King Charles 1634 01:16:21,479 --> 01:16:25,559 Speaker 5: succeeded their land and how he should give back their babies, 1635 01:16:25,600 --> 01:16:28,920 Speaker 5: and he was killing he was involved in genocide. She's 1636 01:16:28,960 --> 01:16:31,920 Speaker 5: on a six year term, so the way our parliament 1637 01:16:32,000 --> 01:16:37,240 Speaker 5: system works, she was elected at the last election as 1638 01:16:37,320 --> 01:16:39,479 Speaker 5: a Green. She had a falling out with the Greens 1639 01:16:39,520 --> 01:16:41,120 Speaker 5: and so the Greens kicked her out of the party. 1640 01:16:41,640 --> 01:16:44,559 Speaker 5: She now sits as an independent and she's got three 1641 01:16:44,640 --> 01:16:47,240 Speaker 5: years to go and there's nothing anyone can do. So 1642 01:16:47,400 --> 01:16:50,960 Speaker 5: she said, see, she doesn't represent anybody, doesn't represent a party, 1643 01:16:51,600 --> 01:16:54,040 Speaker 5: and so there you go. So she sits in the 1644 01:16:54,080 --> 01:16:57,400 Speaker 5: Australian Parliament and it was headlines around the world. We 1645 01:16:57,520 --> 01:16:59,479 Speaker 5: interviewed on the project on Monday night and got from 1646 01:17:00,000 --> 01:17:03,000 Speaker 5: ITV that was his lead story. And so the British 1647 01:17:03,040 --> 01:17:06,000 Speaker 5: all saw King Charles being smashed by this crazy woman. 1648 01:17:06,680 --> 01:17:09,240 Speaker 5: I got to tell you, I was very impressed about 1649 01:17:09,240 --> 01:17:12,840 Speaker 5: the King. He was short but sweet trip. But look 1650 01:17:12,880 --> 01:17:14,840 Speaker 5: he's in his mid seventies. I think he Miller is 1651 01:17:14,840 --> 01:17:18,080 Speaker 5: two years older than him. They did twenty seven engagement 1652 01:17:18,120 --> 01:17:22,080 Speaker 5: ships today across Sydney, including a barbecue in Parramatta which 1653 01:17:22,160 --> 01:17:25,360 Speaker 5: was very spectacular. Ended the day on the harbor on 1654 01:17:25,400 --> 01:17:30,600 Speaker 5: a boat. The crowds were substantial and I thought the 1655 01:17:30,680 --> 01:17:34,160 Speaker 5: age profile of the crowds was extraordinary. Yeah, they busted 1656 01:17:34,160 --> 01:17:36,960 Speaker 5: in some school kids, but Mike, in general, there were 1657 01:17:37,040 --> 01:17:40,040 Speaker 5: younger astrainers and I'm talking about you know, eighteen to 1658 01:17:40,160 --> 01:17:43,400 Speaker 5: twenty five year olds standing waiting for hours to just 1659 01:17:43,640 --> 01:17:46,360 Speaker 5: simply shake the hands of King Charles the Third. I 1660 01:17:46,520 --> 01:17:47,439 Speaker 5: was very impressed on that. 1661 01:17:47,800 --> 01:17:49,920 Speaker 2: Yea, I love the guy. I think he's brilliant. I 1662 01:17:49,920 --> 01:17:52,080 Speaker 2: think he's a life of service. There's a poll out 1663 01:17:52,120 --> 01:17:54,919 Speaker 2: here this morning said fifty five percent of New Zealanders 1664 01:17:54,960 --> 01:17:56,920 Speaker 2: think he should remain or we should remain as part 1665 01:17:56,960 --> 01:18:00,040 Speaker 2: of the monarchy, and twenty seven percent would flip. But 1666 01:18:00,400 --> 01:18:03,160 Speaker 2: what do you what's your guess at what Australian's thinking. 1667 01:18:03,240 --> 01:18:05,639 Speaker 2: I wonder if the number wouldn't have been slightly higher 1668 01:18:05,640 --> 01:18:07,679 Speaker 2: towards the monarchy as a result of what he's just done. 1669 01:18:08,680 --> 01:18:10,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, absolutely, spot on. I think the figures would probably 1670 01:18:10,960 --> 01:18:14,640 Speaker 5: be pretty similar and the Republican movement. Lydia thil has 1671 01:18:14,640 --> 01:18:17,040 Speaker 5: done the Republican movement the biggest favor in the world 1672 01:18:17,080 --> 01:18:20,120 Speaker 5: because that would flip more people back the other way. 1673 01:18:20,439 --> 01:18:22,560 Speaker 5: I don't think there's going to be a referendum on 1674 01:18:22,640 --> 01:18:26,080 Speaker 5: Australia becoming a republic in my lifetime. And look, I'm 1675 01:18:26,160 --> 01:18:29,599 Speaker 5: seventy next year, so I might have another what twenty 1676 01:18:29,680 --> 01:18:35,439 Speaker 5: years to go. I don't think, thank you, thanks, I 1677 01:18:35,520 --> 01:18:37,759 Speaker 5: don't think there will be a republic in our lifetime. 1678 01:18:37,760 --> 01:18:39,640 Speaker 5: I think we'll stay within there in. 1679 01:18:39,680 --> 01:18:41,200 Speaker 2: The con How long are you going to stay on 1680 01:18:41,240 --> 01:18:42,880 Speaker 2: the show? If you're one hundred, would you still do 1681 01:18:42,960 --> 01:18:43,320 Speaker 2: the show? 1682 01:18:44,280 --> 01:18:46,200 Speaker 5: Well, I've been doing it since I was about twenty two. 1683 01:18:46,280 --> 01:18:50,120 Speaker 5: I think you are so probably don't let's talk. I 1684 01:18:50,160 --> 01:18:51,000 Speaker 5: don't like to talk about it. 1685 01:18:52,360 --> 01:18:54,320 Speaker 2: It's how you feel, as that Spice girl once said, 1686 01:18:54,360 --> 01:18:55,360 Speaker 2: or who you're feeling or whatever. 1687 01:18:55,400 --> 01:18:55,680 Speaker 3: It was. 1688 01:18:56,000 --> 01:18:59,519 Speaker 2: So Costello was when you say the Andrews government, we 1689 01:18:59,600 --> 01:19:01,080 Speaker 2: mean the Dan Andrews government. 1690 01:19:01,280 --> 01:19:04,240 Speaker 5: No, yes, the Dan Andrews government. He spoke Costello Peter 1691 01:19:04,760 --> 01:19:07,280 Speaker 5: at a Conservative conference in Sydney yesterday. Now this is 1692 01:19:07,320 --> 01:19:08,880 Speaker 5: a guy, of course, I hadn't had a great year. 1693 01:19:09,280 --> 01:19:12,479 Speaker 5: He was chairman of Channel nine. He shouldered a journal 1694 01:19:12,560 --> 01:19:15,640 Speaker 5: in at Canberra Airport. He was forced to quit, but 1695 01:19:15,800 --> 01:19:18,560 Speaker 5: he still regarded as the best treasurer we've had in 1696 01:19:18,920 --> 01:19:24,160 Speaker 5: living memory. Left it after the government that he was 1697 01:19:24,240 --> 01:19:27,919 Speaker 5: treasurer in was defeated. There was no deck in Australia 1698 01:19:28,000 --> 01:19:30,560 Speaker 5: out this huge deck. So he stands up yesterday and 1699 01:19:30,640 --> 01:19:33,120 Speaker 5: he talks about arrogance in government. He gave Dan Andrews 1700 01:19:33,160 --> 01:19:35,840 Speaker 5: a slap on the way through, saying that you know 1701 01:19:35,880 --> 01:19:39,599 Speaker 5: he shouldn't be involved in treaty negotiations and joining China's 1702 01:19:39,640 --> 01:19:43,320 Speaker 5: Belton road system. But he saved his best quotes for 1703 01:19:44,120 --> 01:19:47,080 Speaker 5: the COVID reaction. Now, you and I've spoken regularly about 1704 01:19:47,120 --> 01:19:49,760 Speaker 5: how Victoria was locked down longer than anyone else in 1705 01:19:49,840 --> 01:19:53,640 Speaker 5: the world, he said, quoted in Melbourne during COVID they 1706 01:19:53,720 --> 01:19:57,679 Speaker 5: closed playgrounds, swings and slides were chained up to stop 1707 01:19:57,840 --> 01:20:00,720 Speaker 5: children using them, and and he went on to talk 1708 01:20:00,760 --> 01:20:04,680 Speaker 5: about how we of course had our you know, you 1709 01:20:04,720 --> 01:20:07,360 Speaker 5: couldn't go out after night. He said, children weren't dying 1710 01:20:07,439 --> 01:20:10,479 Speaker 5: from COVID, They wouldn't die by using a swing. This 1711 01:20:10,640 --> 01:20:14,080 Speaker 5: moronic government even decided to institute a curfew. Now you're 1712 01:20:14,120 --> 01:20:16,160 Speaker 5: not going to catch COVID driving alone in your car 1713 01:20:16,280 --> 01:20:19,240 Speaker 5: up to nine o'clock at night exactly. And Castello did 1714 01:20:19,320 --> 01:20:22,200 Speaker 5: say he was scared and concerned that citizens people in 1715 01:20:22,240 --> 01:20:25,400 Speaker 5: Melbourne gave up their freedom so easily. It was a 1716 01:20:25,520 --> 01:20:26,800 Speaker 5: very powerful speeches today. 1717 01:20:26,920 --> 01:20:30,200 Speaker 2: Good on them. This weekend I watched for my sins. 1718 01:20:30,240 --> 01:20:32,160 Speaker 2: There was a debate. There's been several on Sky News, 1719 01:20:32,200 --> 01:20:34,120 Speaker 2: which is where you work at one of your many jobs. 1720 01:20:34,160 --> 01:20:36,799 Speaker 2: But this Christophiley guy who's in Queensland, who I'm assuming 1721 01:20:36,920 --> 01:20:39,040 Speaker 2: is going to win and win well, he strikes me 1722 01:20:39,120 --> 01:20:40,200 Speaker 2: as relatively impressive. 1723 01:20:41,120 --> 01:20:43,200 Speaker 5: I watched the debate same as you did yesterday, so 1724 01:20:43,280 --> 01:20:46,639 Speaker 5: we both got not much of a life. Yeah. Look, 1725 01:20:47,760 --> 01:20:50,560 Speaker 5: Stephen Miles was took over as Premier of Queensland his 1726 01:20:50,720 --> 01:20:53,920 Speaker 5: labor from Anastasia Palichet. They've been in government for ten years. 1727 01:20:54,720 --> 01:20:57,439 Speaker 5: Miles was always handed at ticking dime by. They were 1728 01:20:57,479 --> 01:21:02,799 Speaker 5: never going to win. The LMP will win probably reasonably easily, 1729 01:21:02,880 --> 01:21:04,400 Speaker 5: all though some of the polls are going back the 1730 01:21:04,439 --> 01:21:06,880 Speaker 5: other way. But Christophull he've got beaten in the first debate, 1731 01:21:07,040 --> 01:21:09,439 Speaker 5: tied the second one, and this is a third debate 1732 01:21:09,520 --> 01:21:11,760 Speaker 5: they've had, and I thought he was pretty impressive last night. 1733 01:21:12,200 --> 01:21:15,400 Speaker 5: He got a bit tangled up on this question of 1734 01:21:15,439 --> 01:21:18,840 Speaker 5: abortion rights. Why that's a thing in Australian politics. I've 1735 01:21:18,840 --> 01:21:22,320 Speaker 5: got no idea, absolutely no idea. It's an American thing. 1736 01:21:23,080 --> 01:21:25,599 Speaker 5: There is a very conservative wing of the LMP under 1737 01:21:25,760 --> 01:21:28,960 Speaker 5: a boat called CATA in Queensland. They've started talking a 1738 01:21:29,000 --> 01:21:32,040 Speaker 5: bit about abortion laws, but no one else takes that seriously. 1739 01:21:32,160 --> 01:21:34,000 Speaker 5: Everybody knows that the rights of a woman of the 1740 01:21:34,080 --> 01:21:35,560 Speaker 5: rights of a woman, and we just get on with it. 1741 01:21:35,640 --> 01:21:37,800 Speaker 5: And that's what christop fully in the end had to 1742 01:21:37,880 --> 01:21:39,800 Speaker 5: manage to spit out and say that's what he thinks. 1743 01:21:40,000 --> 01:21:42,880 Speaker 2: I was reading yesterday You've gone and purchased seven billion 1744 01:21:42,920 --> 01:21:46,479 Speaker 2: dollars worth of US missiles and I'm thinking that's a 1745 01:21:46,520 --> 01:21:49,120 Speaker 2: tremendous amount of money. And Miles is going on about 1746 01:21:49,200 --> 01:21:52,320 Speaker 2: how this is the greatest arms race since WW two. 1747 01:21:53,840 --> 01:21:56,519 Speaker 2: Would you ever see yourself firing off of missile in 1748 01:21:56,560 --> 01:21:58,960 Speaker 2: he is Australia in the business of shooting people down. 1749 01:22:00,320 --> 01:22:02,519 Speaker 5: I wouldn't have thought so. But it's to terrence, isn't 1750 01:22:02,520 --> 01:22:06,000 Speaker 5: it That New Zealand probably should go. Well, that's not 1751 01:22:06,080 --> 01:22:08,360 Speaker 5: a bad thing in Australia spending the money. At least 1752 01:22:08,400 --> 01:22:12,520 Speaker 5: we didn't have to spend it exactly. Look, weapons procurement 1753 01:22:12,600 --> 01:22:15,400 Speaker 5: in this country is a mystery to everybody. The Defense 1754 01:22:15,479 --> 01:22:18,559 Speaker 5: Department is the worst public service in the country. They 1755 01:22:18,600 --> 01:22:20,680 Speaker 5: don't know what they're doing. They've signed up to this 1756 01:22:20,760 --> 01:22:21,519 Speaker 5: submarine deal. 1757 01:22:21,800 --> 01:22:21,920 Speaker 3: You know. 1758 01:22:22,080 --> 01:22:25,720 Speaker 5: Again, I hate to talk about my mortality, but I'll 1759 01:22:25,760 --> 01:22:29,439 Speaker 5: be dead before the first submarine set sale. So look, 1760 01:22:29,560 --> 01:22:32,080 Speaker 5: those missiles can be used by the Navy. Seven billions 1761 01:22:32,120 --> 01:22:34,439 Speaker 5: a lot of money, but not really in terms of 1762 01:22:34,680 --> 01:22:38,880 Speaker 5: military requirements. So we've got them where we have to 1763 01:22:38,960 --> 01:22:40,720 Speaker 5: ever have to fire them in anger. I wouldn't have 1764 01:22:40,720 --> 01:22:43,280 Speaker 5: thought so, because I presume if we get into a 1765 01:22:43,320 --> 01:22:46,200 Speaker 5: conflict with China, they'll simply turn off a switch in 1766 01:22:46,240 --> 01:22:48,599 Speaker 5: every electric car and the country stopped running and that'll 1767 01:22:48,640 --> 01:22:48,800 Speaker 5: be it. 1768 01:22:49,120 --> 01:22:51,960 Speaker 2: Hey, what are you going to do now that Heralds 1769 01:22:52,080 --> 01:22:54,320 Speaker 2: is closed? You hear that Heralds went bankrupt yesterday. 1770 01:22:55,840 --> 01:22:57,600 Speaker 5: I can't believe that. I used to go once a 1771 01:22:57,680 --> 01:23:00,719 Speaker 5: year to that sale. I've still got some magnificent suits 1772 01:23:00,720 --> 01:23:01,479 Speaker 5: for the book from. 1773 01:23:01,400 --> 01:23:04,880 Speaker 2: The Melbourne that Sydney see. This is what saddens me. 1774 01:23:05,520 --> 01:23:07,400 Speaker 2: Harold's for people who don't know. Everyone who's been to 1775 01:23:07,439 --> 01:23:10,080 Speaker 2: Melbourne Sydney knows Harold. Harold's been around for forty years. 1776 01:23:10,120 --> 01:23:13,040 Speaker 2: They've seen it all. And if you can't survive in 1777 01:23:13,280 --> 01:23:17,000 Speaker 2: retail now, I mean, that says something fairly poor about 1778 01:23:17,040 --> 01:23:17,840 Speaker 2: the economy, doesn't it. 1779 01:23:18,640 --> 01:23:18,800 Speaker 3: Well. 1780 01:23:18,800 --> 01:23:21,479 Speaker 5: I suspect anyone with a dollar who could get out 1781 01:23:21,520 --> 01:23:23,280 Speaker 5: of Victoria has That's probably why. 1782 01:23:23,600 --> 01:23:26,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, go well, we'll catch up next week. 1783 01:23:26,000 --> 01:23:29,479 Speaker 2: Appreciate it very much. Harold's is I mean Colin Street. 1784 01:23:29,680 --> 01:23:31,800 Speaker 2: They had an outlet in Sydney in the Westfield in 1785 01:23:31,840 --> 01:23:34,719 Speaker 2: the downtown area. But they did really high end stuff. 1786 01:23:34,720 --> 01:23:36,240 Speaker 2: That's why I raised it with Steve, because that's all 1787 01:23:36,240 --> 01:23:37,920 Speaker 2: Steve wears. He wears a lot of tom Ford and 1788 01:23:37,960 --> 01:23:41,559 Speaker 2: Balenciaga and you know, a lot of silk, a lot 1789 01:23:41,600 --> 01:23:44,360 Speaker 2: of the SARChI stuff like that's a little colorful for 1790 01:23:44,479 --> 01:23:47,600 Speaker 2: my taste. But nevertheless, that's that's what Harold's did and 1791 01:23:48,040 --> 01:23:51,639 Speaker 2: for a forty year veteran of the industry, suddenly yesterday 1792 01:23:51,680 --> 01:23:53,960 Speaker 2: tipped into liquidation just like that. Eight forty five. 1793 01:23:55,200 --> 01:23:59,599 Speaker 1: The High Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio, Howard 1794 01:23:59,640 --> 01:24:00,599 Speaker 1: by new talks. 1795 01:24:00,400 --> 01:24:02,559 Speaker 2: At be Word is twelve away from nine. So two 1796 01:24:02,680 --> 01:24:06,040 Speaker 2: Consumer who did their standard weeklet's hate on air New Zealand. 1797 01:24:06,120 --> 01:24:08,519 Speaker 2: So they did the business. And there's two key bits 1798 01:24:08,600 --> 01:24:11,439 Speaker 2: to this which reminds you is that things aren't as 1799 01:24:11,520 --> 01:24:13,439 Speaker 2: die as you or they would make them out to be. 1800 01:24:13,560 --> 01:24:16,880 Speaker 2: So Consumer tracked the price of six hundred and forty 1801 01:24:16,920 --> 01:24:20,400 Speaker 2: eight flights over eighteen weeks for a family of four 1802 01:24:20,479 --> 01:24:23,360 Speaker 2: two adults two children under eleven to travel return to 1803 01:24:23,479 --> 01:24:26,000 Speaker 2: Australia four ten days with their New Zealand and quantas 1804 01:24:26,880 --> 01:24:29,560 Speaker 2: flights departed from Christjus, Wellington and Auckland en route to 1805 01:24:29,600 --> 01:24:32,400 Speaker 2: Brisbane and Melbourne. All prices referred to in the investigation 1806 01:24:32,520 --> 01:24:35,960 Speaker 2: inclusive of return tickets for poor people. So they checked 1807 01:24:36,000 --> 01:24:38,919 Speaker 2: out the prices at sixteen weeks before the Score Holidays. 1808 01:24:39,320 --> 01:24:41,000 Speaker 2: This is the whole point about Score Holidays and the 1809 01:24:41,080 --> 01:24:43,400 Speaker 2: fair being a quote unquote ripoff. They checked out the 1810 01:24:43,439 --> 01:24:47,240 Speaker 2: prices sixteen weeks before departure, six weeks before departure, and 1811 01:24:47,320 --> 01:24:49,960 Speaker 2: two weeks before departure. Now what do you think they found? 1812 01:24:50,040 --> 01:24:51,800 Speaker 2: Do you think they found The closer you got to 1813 01:24:51,880 --> 01:24:55,559 Speaker 2: the school holidays, the more expensive it became. Tickets purchased 1814 01:24:55,560 --> 01:24:58,439 Speaker 2: for a departure date of July ten, four days into 1815 01:24:58,439 --> 01:25:01,240 Speaker 2: the July School Holidays were on age three, nine hundred 1816 01:25:01,240 --> 01:25:05,320 Speaker 2: and sixteen dollars more expensive than tickets purchased on June nineteen, 1817 01:25:05,720 --> 01:25:07,760 Speaker 2: three weeks earlier. That's an increase of one hundred and 1818 01:25:07,800 --> 01:25:10,759 Speaker 2: forty one percent. Now is that a ripof No? Because 1819 01:25:10,760 --> 01:25:14,920 Speaker 2: it's supply and demand. Now would any airline, any business 1820 01:25:15,560 --> 01:25:17,880 Speaker 2: when faced with that level of demand, Because it's simply 1821 01:25:17,960 --> 01:25:21,519 Speaker 2: supply and demand. The demand goes up, you increase the 1822 01:25:21,600 --> 01:25:23,599 Speaker 2: supply and you go, oh good, lots of people want 1823 01:25:23,600 --> 01:25:25,559 Speaker 2: to give us money, let's put on in this case 1824 01:25:25,800 --> 01:25:27,599 Speaker 2: more seats. Now they can't do that. Why can't they 1825 01:25:27,640 --> 01:25:28,920 Speaker 2: do that because they don't have any planes. Why they 1826 01:25:28,920 --> 01:25:30,759 Speaker 2: don't have any planes because no one's making any planes 1827 01:25:31,000 --> 01:25:34,040 Speaker 2: because Boeing's on strike and Airbus is useless, and all 1828 01:25:34,080 --> 01:25:35,760 Speaker 2: the plans that are ordered are in delays and they 1829 01:25:35,800 --> 01:25:37,400 Speaker 2: got massive engine problems, so they haven't got any more 1830 01:25:37,439 --> 01:25:39,800 Speaker 2: planes to put on new routes. The other and this 1831 01:25:40,000 --> 01:25:43,479 Speaker 2: is the critical point that isn't covered properly in the story, 1832 01:25:43,920 --> 01:25:45,679 Speaker 2: but they do point out to be fair to consumer, 1833 01:25:46,240 --> 01:25:48,639 Speaker 2: is that Air New Zealand were a mile more expensive 1834 01:25:48,680 --> 01:25:51,840 Speaker 2: than quantus. So what would the answer to your problem 1835 01:25:51,960 --> 01:25:53,760 Speaker 2: be If you're sitting there looking at a fair for 1836 01:25:53,800 --> 01:25:55,600 Speaker 2: Air New Zealand that you think is too expensive, what 1837 01:25:55,600 --> 01:25:58,080 Speaker 2: would your answer be? Would it be to go to 1838 01:25:58,200 --> 01:26:01,880 Speaker 2: the other guy who's a lot cheaper and use them? 1839 01:26:02,200 --> 01:26:04,519 Speaker 2: And what does that then tell you about the situation 1840 01:26:04,680 --> 01:26:08,479 Speaker 2: in the LA industry? This competition and so if this 1841 01:26:08,680 --> 01:26:12,120 Speaker 2: competition in the market, and the competition is offering a 1842 01:26:12,160 --> 01:26:15,080 Speaker 2: better deal than another player as a result of everybody 1843 01:26:15,200 --> 01:26:18,240 Speaker 2: going to the competition, would then the other player go, oh, whoops, 1844 01:26:18,240 --> 01:26:21,559 Speaker 2: we've lost all of our demand, and therefore the supply 1845 01:26:21,760 --> 01:26:24,200 Speaker 2: is a problem. Therefore we might lower our prices as well. 1846 01:26:24,360 --> 01:26:27,200 Speaker 2: In other words, there isn't actually a problem at the 1847 01:26:27,320 --> 01:26:29,960 Speaker 2: end of the day. Is it that simple? Or is 1848 01:26:30,000 --> 01:26:31,360 Speaker 2: it that simple? Nne away from. 1849 01:26:31,280 --> 01:26:37,080 Speaker 1: Nine the Mike Hosking Breakfast with Bailey's Real Estate News dogs. 1850 01:26:37,040 --> 01:26:40,360 Speaker 2: Be McDonald's is not a political brand. This goes back 1851 01:26:40,360 --> 01:26:42,640 Speaker 2: we were talking about this time yesterday. Trump turns up 1852 01:26:42,640 --> 01:26:45,040 Speaker 2: at McDonald's and all hell breaks McDonald's. They had to 1853 01:26:45,040 --> 01:26:46,840 Speaker 2: put out a memo, is not a political brand and 1854 01:26:46,920 --> 01:26:51,120 Speaker 2: not endorsing a presidential election. Corporate America has grown more 1855 01:26:51,160 --> 01:26:53,880 Speaker 2: cautious about wading into politics. Corporate America is far too 1856 01:26:53,920 --> 01:26:57,720 Speaker 2: angsty as far as I can work out. And I 1857 01:26:57,840 --> 01:27:01,000 Speaker 2: looked into Glenn was defending Carmela Harris this time yesterday 1858 01:27:01,040 --> 01:27:04,599 Speaker 2: about her experience at McDonald's or lack of it. Answer 1859 01:27:04,640 --> 01:27:07,559 Speaker 2: me the simple question. So here's why I've become interested 1860 01:27:07,640 --> 01:27:09,920 Speaker 2: in it. Tim Will's lyne about being into animate square, right, 1861 01:27:10,240 --> 01:27:11,960 Speaker 2: So he said he's into animate square and the tanks 1862 01:27:11,960 --> 01:27:16,439 Speaker 2: were rolling through he lied. Harris and her campaign have 1863 01:27:16,600 --> 01:27:19,360 Speaker 2: said she worked at McDonald's. She did, quote unquote, she 1864 01:27:19,479 --> 01:27:24,920 Speaker 2: did the fries. There is no pacelet, no tax returned, 1865 01:27:25,920 --> 01:27:29,800 Speaker 2: no photo, no employee of the month, no one who 1866 01:27:29,880 --> 01:27:33,200 Speaker 2: ever worked there that remembers her, No franchise, the owner, 1867 01:27:33,640 --> 01:27:39,679 Speaker 2: no manager, No one ever anywhere at McDonald's Alameda ever 1868 01:27:39,800 --> 01:27:42,439 Speaker 2: remembers her. Says, so talks about it in any way, 1869 01:27:42,520 --> 01:27:44,960 Speaker 2: shape or form. But her campaign is actively using the 1870 01:27:45,040 --> 01:27:46,920 Speaker 2: line that she worked at McDonald's. 1871 01:27:46,920 --> 01:27:50,120 Speaker 11: So she's just like you, Well, you know what they 1872 01:27:50,160 --> 01:27:51,440 Speaker 11: say about working at McDonald's. 1873 01:27:51,479 --> 01:27:52,000 Speaker 2: What do they say? 1874 01:27:53,320 --> 01:27:55,480 Speaker 11: What happens at McDonald stays at McDonald's. 1875 01:27:56,520 --> 01:27:58,840 Speaker 2: Fair enough?
