Pasky, Welcome to Tuesday seven past six. Now 13 00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:36,879 Speaker 2: we'll get to the main part of the TV one 14 00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:39,559 Speaker 2: pole shortly, but by way of a teaser they let 15 00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:41,600 Speaker 2: the world have a couple of pre bullet and numbers, 16 00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:44,880 Speaker 2: and sadly in those numbers is everything that's wrong with polling? 17 00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:47,040 Speaker 2: Can I say before I forget that we should be 18 00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:48,919 Speaker 2: grateful to TV and Z for still polling it all. 19 00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:51,040 Speaker 2: Polling is expensive and given the state of the TV 20 00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:53,640 Speaker 2: channel at the moment, the amount of money they're looking 21 00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:55,240 Speaker 2: to save the number of people they are about to 22 00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:56,959 Speaker 2: lay off. Not to mention the number of people they've 23 00:00:56,960 --> 00:00:59,640 Speaker 2: already laid off, might lead you to believe that polling 24 00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:02,640 Speaker 2: money might have been shelld especially outside election year. But 25 00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:04,520 Speaker 2: good on them for continuing to give us some sort 26 00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:08,920 Speaker 2: of insight or is it? Forty percent think we are 27 00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:11,440 Speaker 2: worse off than we were before election date? That alone, 28 00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:13,680 Speaker 2: we'll give you a headline, And as it turned out, 29 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:16,480 Speaker 2: it did. But what does it actually mean? Twenty six 30 00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:19,759 Speaker 2: percent say it's no different, so Tban said, then added 31 00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:22,280 Speaker 2: those two numbers together to give us their headline. Two 32 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:25,040 Speaker 2: thirds of us think things are no better than they were, 33 00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 2: the inference being, of course, we elected the wrong people 34 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:30,320 Speaker 2: to run the country. Thirty percent think things are better. 35 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:32,800 Speaker 2: But how to read a poll? And what that pole 36 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:36,520 Speaker 2: suggests are complex, if not completely pointless things. Because one, 37 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:39,199 Speaker 2: I'm in the forty percent the group that think things 38 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 2: are worse? Why because they are post the election, We've 39 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:46,640 Speaker 2: had the unveiling of the disaster the previous government left 40 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:50,000 Speaker 2: us economically, the fiscal cliffs, as the new government called them, 41 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:53,680 Speaker 2: economic bombs. They are real, they've been revealed. Therefore, we 42 00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 2: are indisputably worse off. It's a statement of economic fact. 43 00:01:57,800 --> 00:01:59,640 Speaker 2: It's not a reflection on this government. It's a reflection 44 00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 2: on the line government. But Poles don't do that level 45 00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 2: of nuance. But I'm also in the thirty percent who 46 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 2: think things are better off. Why because you can see 47 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:09,720 Speaker 2: the green shoots, you can see the cash right cuts, 48 00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:11,920 Speaker 2: you can see the stimulation of the housing market. You 49 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:13,760 Speaker 2: can see the bottom or the end of the slump 50 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 2: or possibly the end of the recessions. Therefore there is light, 51 00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:19,919 Speaker 2: Therefore there is hope. Therefore I am in the thirty percent. 52 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 2: So forty or thirty, which is it? And if it's both, 53 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 2: what's that tell us? Well? One, the key is often 54 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:28,760 Speaker 2: in the question and the quality of it. And two 55 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 2: it's the reading and interpretation, which means three you take 56 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 2: it all with a grain of salt. 57 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 1: News of the world in ninety seconds. 58 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 2: Bombs and drones continue to fly in the Middle East 59 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:42,799 Speaker 2: for Israeli soldiers dead, sixty one others injured. 60 00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:45,840 Speaker 3: Like all events, we will study this event, but I 61 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 3: don't think there is a country that has a better 62 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 3: defense against drones than Israel. Still, we get surprised sometimes 63 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:53,919 Speaker 3: and we're not perfect. 64 00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:57,120 Speaker 2: Those inside the hospitals are worried. 65 00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:59,280 Speaker 4: As a human being and as a mother. It was 66 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 4: difficult for me to hear the news, like all the 67 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:04,640 Speaker 4: people in Israel, even if I was not a mother. 68 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 4: It's difficult for us, especially for me because I have 69 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:09,639 Speaker 4: children of military service age. 70 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 2: And Gaza refugee camp has been burnt to nothing. 71 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 5: My tent it's gone, winter is coming. 72 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 6: What am I supposed to do? 73 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 4: There's nothing left in there, no mattresses, no food, no blankets, 74 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:20,840 Speaker 4: all our belongings. 75 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,800 Speaker 6: We have nothing to wear. I only have what I'm wearing. 76 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:26,600 Speaker 2: Nowto tied developments in the arrist of Vim Miller, who 77 00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:29,760 Speaker 2: some thought yesterday might be a Trump assassin, he claims 78 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:31,919 Speaker 2: he's a fan. He had a megat Mega T shirt, 79 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 2: had been personally invited to the rally, and Coachella did 80 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 2: have a few weapons in the Cowboy. 81 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 7: The vehicle was unregistered and the license plate was one 82 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 7: that is homemade and indicative of a group of individuals 83 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:49,080 Speaker 7: that claimed to be sovereign citizens. 84 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:53,080 Speaker 2: Well, doesn't making an assassin, does it? Trump himself, in 85 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 2: an interview, is expressing concern about civil un race. 86 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:57,320 Speaker 8: I don't think they're the problem in terms of election. 87 00:03:57,480 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 8: I think the bigger problem are the people from with 88 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 8: then we have some very bad people. We have some 89 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:05,680 Speaker 8: sick people, radical left lunatics. It should be very easily 90 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 8: handled by if necessary, by National Guard or if really necessary, 91 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 8: by the military. 92 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 2: And then to Britain, where the beleagued PM is busy 93 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 2: spreaking his fiscal credentials to an investment Chinwag. 94 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:20,200 Speaker 1: I'm determined to do everything in my power to galvanize group. 95 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:24,440 Speaker 9: Determined for this country to be the highest. 96 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 10: Growing economy in the G seven. Finally, that is our 97 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 10: most important national mission. 98 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:33,280 Speaker 2: Finally, from the brainch Trust file. Drug dealer in Portland, 99 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 2: he was stopped by the FEDS in a stolen car. 100 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:38,480 Speaker 2: In the search they found some scales, some cash, a 101 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 2: loaded handgun and bag. On the outside of the bag 102 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:45,480 Speaker 2: was writing saying definitely not a bag full of drugs. 103 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:49,880 Speaker 2: Unfortunately it was a bag full of drugs, ten grams 104 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 2: of meth and Fenton also he guess where he is 105 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 2: right now, has used the world the moron's in ninety China. 106 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,719 Speaker 2: Can I give you any good news? I'm not really sure. Actually, 107 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 2: the CPI rose zero point four for the U year 108 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 2: earlier from last month zero point six for a rise 109 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:05,839 Speaker 2: in August. I don't know what that tells US Producer 110 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:08,839 Speaker 2: Price Index. That's the worry. The PPI fell two point 111 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 2: eight percent year on year, versus a one point eight 112 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:14,480 Speaker 2: percent decline in the previous month below and anticipated two 113 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:18,280 Speaker 2: point five percent decline. So is the stimulus working long term? 114 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:19,480 Speaker 2: Twelve past six. 115 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 1: The Mike Hosking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered 116 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:27,039 Speaker 1: by News Talk ZEPPI. 117 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 2: Democracy Watch. They've been voting over the week in Lithuania. 118 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 2: Looks like a change of governments. On the cards. The 119 00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:35,280 Speaker 2: Social Democrats who were in the opposition, seem to have won. 120 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:37,080 Speaker 2: They've won the most votes. They're at twenty percent, so 121 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:39,919 Speaker 2: they're trying to form a coalition as we speak. Homeland 122 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,359 Speaker 2: Union who have been running the place, they had eighteen 123 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:44,599 Speaker 2: percent of the botes. That came the second third, the 124 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 2: anti establishment Numanus Dawn at fifteen percent. So the sd 125 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:54,279 Speaker 2: are talking about tackling rising inequality, hiking taxes on wealthy Lithuanians. 126 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 2: National security is a major issue, so some of that 127 00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 2: moved to the right. We've been seeing in Europe, not 128 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:04,560 Speaker 2: in Lithuania. Dem Past jare My Love hendre Keller, Good morning, 129 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:07,120 Speaker 2: very good morning, Mike's have a look at the old 130 00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:10,520 Speaker 2: economy and we got retailed yesterday as well as the services. 131 00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 10: Yeah, so let's talk about the service to sector. 132 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:14,919 Speaker 9: Show it because it's a very big part of the 133 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:18,040 Speaker 9: New Zealand economy. And we got our monthly barometer on 134 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:20,520 Speaker 9: the health of that sector yesterday. Now, Mike, I think 135 00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:23,599 Speaker 9: yesterday morning you covered off the manufacturing sector than the 136 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:28,040 Speaker 9: PMI the performance of services the Partner survey to that. Now, 137 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:30,919 Speaker 9: we do know that the RBNS monitor, they pay attention 138 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:34,200 Speaker 9: some attention to these high frequency indicators that they're important 139 00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:37,480 Speaker 9: and services, I said, big part of the economy. Now, Mike, 140 00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:39,799 Speaker 9: the number here you've been talking about this this morning, 141 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:42,159 Speaker 9: the number here or the number we got yesterday, is 142 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:45,400 Speaker 9: illustrative of a key theme, a key macroeconomic theme at 143 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 9: the moment. And this, I think from my little part 144 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:49,480 Speaker 9: of the world is a key takeaway for. 145 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 10: Listeners this morning. 146 00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:54,280 Speaker 9: The here and now is very different from where perceptions 147 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 9: are as to where we will be. So recent business 148 00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 9: confidence almost much improved, shot the lights out, but that's 149 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:02,440 Speaker 9: not actual activity. 150 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 10: It's not the here and now. If we look at 151 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:04,480 Speaker 10: the here and. 152 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 9: Now and the services index headline forty five point seven. 153 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:11,320 Speaker 10: It's the same as it was in August. It hasn't moved. 154 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 9: It's still under fifty, which signifies contraction in the sector. 155 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 9: The long term average is fifty three point one, so 156 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 9: we're tracking well below that. We've now had seven consecutive 157 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 9: months of contraction for the PSI, which is not great, 158 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 9: but it's a heck of a lot better than the PMI, 159 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:29,560 Speaker 9: the manufacturing one that you talked about, which has been 160 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:33,640 Speaker 9: in contraction now for nineteen consecutive months. Now, look at 161 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 9: the sub indexes activity sales. It's creeping higher. It is 162 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 9: creeping high. It so at forty six point seven. Now 163 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 9: in June that measure was thirty nine and a half. 164 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 9: So look, it's just getting less bad, but it is. 165 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 10: Moving in the right direction. 166 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:46,920 Speaker 11: Now. 167 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 9: The international comparisons might we are an outlier here for 168 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:52,679 Speaker 9: a start, we are a lot weaker, but it's also 169 00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:56,160 Speaker 9: unusual in that the services sector on this measure is 170 00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 9: weaker than the manufacturing sector. That's not the case in 171 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:02,239 Speaker 9: most other jury dictions. The service sector had held up better. 172 00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:05,000 Speaker 9: You put the two indexes together, you get think called 173 00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:06,560 Speaker 9: the Compson Index that gives. 174 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 10: You a useful read on growth on GDP. That's at 175 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:10,480 Speaker 10: forty six. 176 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 9: It's suggesting that the Q three, the September quarter, will 177 00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 9: deliver very subdued growth. It will be negative, so you 178 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 9: get another quarter of economic contraction. So I come back 179 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 9: to this macro theme like expectations, perceptions, hope is that 180 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 9: our economic fortunes improve, and they probably will, but the 181 00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 9: heir and now hasn't really shifted yet. What this is 182 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:34,360 Speaker 9: MI is it's very supportive of further OCR. 183 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:36,839 Speaker 2: Moderation exactly, and that is reflected also, of course in 184 00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 2: the retail spending. 185 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 9: Yeah, so this is out of stats New Zealand. This 186 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:44,120 Speaker 9: is for September retail spending card transactions. It also shows 187 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:46,320 Speaker 9: that the here and now is tough and as I say, 188 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:50,199 Speaker 9: often pick your adjective, because there's lost lots of oft 189 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 9: repeated ones around right now, subdued, weak, lackluster, anemic. If 190 00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:56,719 Speaker 9: you have a competition, actually see if we can get 191 00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:59,839 Speaker 9: some better ones, some more ones. Anyway, total transactions did 192 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 9: eke out a zero point three percent game month a month, 193 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:06,480 Speaker 9: but retail transactions flat for the month. And so if 194 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:08,880 Speaker 9: you look at the where they were versus a year ago, 195 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:13,040 Speaker 9: the circa about four percent lower and that's nominal, that's 196 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:15,520 Speaker 9: not real, that's not adjusted for inflation, that's not on 197 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:16,720 Speaker 9: a per capita basis. 198 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 10: Both of those will make the numbers worse. 199 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 5: So we're not. 200 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:22,080 Speaker 9: Really seeing any material boost from things like the tax 201 00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:25,800 Speaker 9: cuts at the moment. Fuel spending that's lower, notable weakness, 202 00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:29,600 Speaker 9: and durable goods spending. You look at the let's look 203 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:35,040 Speaker 9: at actually some real numbers. Quarterly spending retail industries decreased 204 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 9: one hundred and thirty five million dollars, and then core 205 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:42,000 Speaker 9: retail industries ninety one million dollars. And if I look 206 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 9: at those carely numbers, hospitality stands out as pretty weak 207 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 9: and it continues to underline the tough conditions in that sector. 208 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 10: Right. 209 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:50,760 Speaker 2: What are the numbers? 210 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:53,560 Speaker 10: Well, actually, the numbers look pretty good. 211 00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:56,319 Speaker 9: The Dow Jones is up one hundred and eighty nine points. 212 00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:59,400 Speaker 9: It's zero point four four percent forty three fifty two. 213 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:02,560 Speaker 9: The S and P five hundred is up three percent 214 00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:05,679 Speaker 9: five eight five nine, and the Nasdaq is up zero 215 00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:08,640 Speaker 9: point eight to five percent eighteen thousand, four hundred ninety eight. 216 00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:11,280 Speaker 10: In the US starting off the week in fine fettle. 217 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 9: The fortzy one hundred, it's it was up overnight about 218 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:17,559 Speaker 9: half a percent eight two nine two.

Barnier's budget in 344 00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:09,800 Speaker 2: France the other day seems to have gone down as 345 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:12,800 Speaker 2: you would expect the jurymandate government's budget to go down. 346 00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:14,720 Speaker 2: In u A Captain Field on that to be shortly 347 00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:17,240 Speaker 2: meantime back here, the orders to General is having a 348 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:19,520 Speaker 2: look into the way that Oranger Tamariki is doing its job. 349 00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:21,520 Speaker 2: Services they funded been cut or scale back, as I'm 350 00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:23,160 Speaker 2: sure you're well aware, as a result of the government 351 00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:25,840 Speaker 2: review and their budgets and services. This has upset a 352 00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:28,680 Speaker 2: lot of people in the sector. Of course, social service providers. 353 00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:31,080 Speaker 2: CEO Blinda Hemiower is with us. 354 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:32,640 Speaker 10: Very good morning, Good morning mate. 355 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:34,640 Speaker 2: Have we got a couple of things here. One the 356 00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:38,160 Speaker 2: cutbacks and funding and value for the money argument versus 357 00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:40,240 Speaker 2: the way they handle it. They're two separate issues. Is 358 00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:40,880 Speaker 2: that fair or not? 359 00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:45,680 Speaker 6: The interconnected. I think the reason that the Office of 360 00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:48,840 Speaker 6: the Orders General has decided to look into this and 361 00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:52,440 Speaker 6: then interact concerns which were quite serious, there is both 362 00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:57,280 Speaker 6: of those issues. So the record rate of removal of services, 363 00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:00,600 Speaker 6: the lack of transparency, the lack of clear process about 364 00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 6: why decisions were being made. In many cases there were 365 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:07,440 Speaker 6: children and families receiving services that we're being removed or reduced, 366 00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:10,119 Speaker 6: and I think all of this just shows quite a 367 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:13,359 Speaker 6: damaging picture for those out there in communities and the 368 00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 6: sector is just very distressed. They can see these services 369 00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:17,000 Speaker 6: are still needed. 370 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:19,399 Speaker 2: Yes, indeed, but that's a government decision. Though the Government 371 00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:21,520 Speaker 2: of the day rightly or wrongly says we don't want 372 00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:23,439 Speaker 2: to do it this way. That's their right, isn't it. 373 00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:25,080 Speaker 15: Yeah. 374 00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 6: I mean there's a very good conversation to be had 375 00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:29,639 Speaker 6: about what is needed in these communities, and part of 376 00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:31,879 Speaker 6: that is our sector. We are a government funded, not 377 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 6: for profit sector. We work alongside government every day to 378 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:40,080 Speaker 6: help them implement their strategy. So the idea that government 379 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:42,919 Speaker 6: can't change its mind is just, frankly, not how we operate. 380 00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:45,960 Speaker 6: It's the very resilient sector. I think the reason that 381 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:48,480 Speaker 6: we are just so concerned is the rapid nature of 382 00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:50,960 Speaker 6: these decisions. There seems to be no plan that we've 383 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:55,200 Speaker 6: seen in communities. Children are being left without the services 384 00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:57,800 Speaker 6: that they need, and these are really vital services for 385 00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:00,359 Speaker 6: sometimes very young children and honorable family. 386 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:00,600 Speaker 16: See. 387 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:03,280 Speaker 2: I followed this very closely because I'm interested. I can't. 388 00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:05,280 Speaker 2: We had some people there's a lot of emotion in 389 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:07,639 Speaker 2: the sector, and I understand it to a degree, but 390 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 2: there was some woman and Nelson the other day who 391 00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:13,880 Speaker 2: go who went children are going to die? And I went, right, no, 392 00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:18,200 Speaker 2: they're not. I mean, come on, And so current saw, 393 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 2: on the other hand, is in Parliament almost on a 394 00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:23,960 Speaker 2: weekly basis these days, saying things like there's money in 395 00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:26,400 Speaker 2: bank accounts that was never used, so we don't want 396 00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:27,800 Speaker 2: to do it that way anymore. And you think, well, 397 00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:28,320 Speaker 2: fair enough. 398 00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:31,520 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think the common issue we've got a lot 399 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:35,199 Speaker 6: of common ground with governments. I think the most important 400 00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:37,800 Speaker 6: thing for us to is constructively work through these issues 401 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:42,399 Speaker 6: without undue emotion on any size, because I think the 402 00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:44,600 Speaker 6: focus here has to be about giving New Zealand as 403 00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:48,320 Speaker 6: children and families the services that they deserve. I think 404 00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 6: that when you remove supports, training, access to services, you 405 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:55,919 Speaker 6: delay with ferrals, all of these paint a dangerous picture 406 00:18:55,960 --> 00:19:00,200 Speaker 6: for those needing chronic services and communities and it's important 407 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:05,160 Speaker 6: conversation to have about how unimpacted children are who need 408 00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:08,400 Speaker 6: the services that may no longer be provided. I also 409 00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:10,560 Speaker 6: think that Minister's come in with a vision. It was 410 00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:13,200 Speaker 6: voted for by New Zealand, but part of it and 411 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:15,240 Speaker 6: this is why the Office of the Autogenal, which is 412 00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:20,119 Speaker 6: an independent organization, independent body of Parliament, the reason it 413 00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:22,560 Speaker 6: is looking is that things don't look right with what's 414 00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:23,639 Speaker 6: been happening with un. 415 00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:26,199 Speaker 2: That's partlind I still can't get to the bottom of 416 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:29,120 Speaker 2: is the ag looking at this to go look at 417 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:30,680 Speaker 2: the end of the day, they shouldn't have given you 418 00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 2: three days notice that that wasn't professional. It's not what 419 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:35,600 Speaker 2: we would have liked. We would have liked a couple 420 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:38,040 Speaker 2: of months. But at the end of the day, they 421 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:39,960 Speaker 2: can do what they want. I mean that in essence 422 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:41,719 Speaker 2: is what they're likely to come up with, isn't it. 423 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:42,919 Speaker 7: Well. 424 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:45,040 Speaker 6: I think one of the reasons that the LAG has 425 00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 6: chosen this situation, in this set of circumstances to look at, 426 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:51,440 Speaker 6: and you'll see this if you look at the terms 427 00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:54,760 Speaker 6: of reference or the information on the website, is because 428 00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:57,119 Speaker 6: the nature of the services means the impact of that 429 00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 6: funding is very distressing and not okay. So when you've 430 00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:06,800 Speaker 6: got a child apparent, someone who may have experienced sem 431 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:10,560 Speaker 6: violent sexual violence, child who's been in an abusive home, 432 00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:13,159 Speaker 6: when they are receiving services or when they need to 433 00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:16,159 Speaker 6: be placed in care, when they do not have access 434 00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:19,400 Speaker 6: to those services, there can be an impact on their 435 00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:21,720 Speaker 6: safety and well being. And this is why we should 436 00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 6: be looking very closely at this matter. 437 00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:25,159 Speaker 2: Blinda, you have a good day, Please to appreciate it 438 00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:28,840 Speaker 2: very much. Belinda Heimiona, who is with the Social Services 439 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:32,359 Speaker 2: Providers eighteen away from seven task queaking of issues the 440 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:35,159 Speaker 2: absolute shambles Mike toy is made of Wellington is a 441 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:37,080 Speaker 2: great example. I don't think we blame Tori. I mean 442 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:39,280 Speaker 2: we blame Tory because she's the top of the totem pole, 443 00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:42,399 Speaker 2: but we blame the entire council. It's tower on the 444 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:46,480 Speaker 2: two point a bunch of dysfunctional idiots. Anyway, the shambles 445 00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 2: that toy is made of Wellington is a great example 446 00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:50,240 Speaker 2: of how dire it would have been had Labor Mari 447 00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:53,399 Speaker 2: Green coalition become the government last year. If that had happened, 448 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:55,880 Speaker 2: I think the net migration figures would have blown out, 449 00:20:56,520 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 2: blown out. They've already blown out, haven't you seen the 450 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:01,479 Speaker 2: numbers that came out last week? They've blown out then 451 00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:04,680 Speaker 2: blown out again. We are setting record after record after 452 00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:07,919 Speaker 2: record of young New Zealanders who are bailing on this 453 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:10,760 Speaker 2: country because of things like Wellington. And I note with 454 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:14,000 Speaker 2: interest that Nikola Willis, who's increasingly frustrated at the exercise, 455 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:17,000 Speaker 2: is looking at It's not her decision, obviously, but the 456 00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:19,080 Speaker 2: government to looking at the possibility of a little bit 457 00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:21,320 Speaker 2: of intervention. So we'll talk to Prime Minister Chris Luxon 458 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:23,320 Speaker 2: about that in an hour's time. Seventeen to two. 459 00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 1: The Mike Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered 460 00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:29,560 Speaker 1: by News Talk ZIPP. 461 00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:32,600 Speaker 2: Mike Wellington's the san Fran of New Zealand. Mike she said, 462 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:35,800 Speaker 2: services they deserve, No, it's services they need. I deserve 463 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 2: a Ferrari for all the charity work I do, but 464 00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 2: I need a four. That's quite well put. Mike Golris 465 00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:42,679 Speaker 2: has popped a head up again. I'll come back to 466 00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:44,560 Speaker 2: that because I wondered how long it would take people 467 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:46,680 Speaker 2: to exercise themselves about that. 468 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:51,160 Speaker 17: Six forty five International correspondence with Ends and Eye Insurance 469 00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:54,000 Speaker 17: Peace of Mind for New Zealand Business Spark Captain Field. 470 00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:56,679 Speaker 2: Very good morning to you, good and running mate. Paris 471 00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:58,679 Speaker 2: Motor Show. I always follow the Paris Motor Show with 472 00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:00,359 Speaker 2: a great deal of interest. Is it for doing this 473 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 2: year with a lot of byds and Chinese half price evs? 474 00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:07,200 Speaker 12: It is a very tense Paris Motor Show this year, 475 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:10,520 Speaker 12: of course Europe's biggest motor show. The reason that it 476 00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:14,080 Speaker 12: really is tense is because you've got those two signs 477 00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:14,679 Speaker 12: coming together. 478 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:14,880 Speaker 13: Mine. 479 00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:17,359 Speaker 12: You've got the Chinese who are to get more of 480 00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:21,640 Speaker 12: their vehicles on sale in Europe if they've got something 481 00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:25,120 Speaker 12: like five Chinese brands out there at the Paris Motor Show, 482 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:27,800 Speaker 12: just showing off what they've got. On the other side, 483 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:31,240 Speaker 12: you've got the Europeans, the French, the Germans. Their industry 484 00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:34,560 Speaker 12: is absolutely struggling, and of course the EU has just 485 00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:38,359 Speaker 12: come up with a forty five percent tariff on Chinese 486 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:42,280 Speaker 12: electric cars. So Chinese aren't happy about this. Not to 487 00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:46,840 Speaker 12: not to put it too mildly, these tariffs, you know, 488 00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:49,000 Speaker 12: they say. The Europeans are saying, look, you know, we 489 00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:52,680 Speaker 12: just have to compete. The Chinese are subsidizing their industry. 490 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 12: We're not, so we're going to put a tariff on 491 00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:57,600 Speaker 12: that covers that amount of money that the Chinese government 492 00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:00,720 Speaker 12: is putting in, so as we can compete, you're on 493 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:03,640 Speaker 12: an even basis. Well, what they're saying now is that 494 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:06,359 Speaker 12: what will happen is these tarrafs will lead Chinese companies 495 00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:09,000 Speaker 12: to come and set up their plants in Europe, add 496 00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:12,399 Speaker 12: to the over capacity, and local manufacturers could also be 497 00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:17,120 Speaker 12: forced out out of business completely. So there's also comes Mike, 498 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:20,199 Speaker 12: don't forget just the time when the Chinese have retaliated, 499 00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 12: They've put that new tariff on imports of cognac into China. 500 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:28,200 Speaker 12: So it's a time when everyone's kind of jostling around. 501 00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:31,280 Speaker 12: It's not making for a pleasant motor show. And there's 502 00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:34,080 Speaker 12: more to come, Mike here, because cars aren't selling well 503 00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:36,680 Speaker 12: in Europe at the moment, new car sales still well 504 00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:40,000 Speaker 12: below that pre COVID level. And as well, you know, 505 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:42,639 Speaker 12: they're looking at China because China has been flooding the 506 00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:46,760 Speaker 12: market here with solar panels, heat pumps, wooden turbines, and 507 00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:49,520 Speaker 12: essentially the consumers having a bit of a hard time 508 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:52,359 Speaker 12: and thinking that the government really should have been setting 509 00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:55,080 Speaker 12: up its own sort of solar panel factories and heat 510 00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:57,919 Speaker 12: pump factories and not leaving it to get to the 511 00:23:57,960 --> 00:23:58,880 Speaker 12: stage it's at now. 512 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,359 Speaker 2: Alsoly say how many Chinese evs would I see on 513 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:03,080 Speaker 2: any given day? 514 00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:06,800 Speaker 12: You know, you'd start to see quite a bit. They've 515 00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:09,200 Speaker 12: got you, I don't know what it is. It's between 516 00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:12,000 Speaker 12: five and ten percent of the market. So you essentially 517 00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:16,200 Speaker 12: see Tesla some Chinese cars around. What you will see 518 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 12: a lot of, Mike though, are hybrids, you petrol battery hybrids, 519 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 12: and they're you know, but the French just came to 520 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:27,760 Speaker 12: that way too late. They've got Toyota making cars here 521 00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:29,879 Speaker 12: but this is so new and they came to the 522 00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:30,880 Speaker 12: party way too late. 523 00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:33,000 Speaker 2: But when you talk about hybrids, are you talking about 524 00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:34,760 Speaker 2: plug and hybrids? And I want to bore people with 525 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:36,720 Speaker 2: the technology, but I mean, if you're talking about plug 526 00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:40,720 Speaker 2: and hybrids, does France have an electric charging infrastructure that 527 00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:42,800 Speaker 2: you would be confident of finding a part to plug 528 00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 2: your Caaren while you go shopping? 529 00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:47,639 Speaker 12: Yeah you do, now you do notice it, but not 530 00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:50,280 Speaker 12: a lot of people. It's still got the range. Let's 531 00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:52,919 Speaker 12: not forget France is a big country. It is huge, 532 00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:54,720 Speaker 12: so if you want to plug in your car, you 533 00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 12: really want to get more than sort of two hundred 534 00:24:56,840 --> 00:25:01,240 Speaker 12: klometers range before you plug into and service station, which 535 00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:03,760 Speaker 12: there are on the motorways, and they do have fast charging, 536 00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:08,359 Speaker 12: but it's really not the sort of driving touring that 537 00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:10,560 Speaker 12: the French history is getting in the car, driving a 538 00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:12,600 Speaker 12: long distance and being at the beach or the mountains 539 00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:15,719 Speaker 12: or whatever. And of course you're getting these bigger cars 540 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:19,320 Speaker 12: that you need a lot of juice in them, and 541 00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:21,200 Speaker 12: then you don't go very far. 542 00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:24,560 Speaker 2: No exactly. Now, the report I read last week when 543 00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:27,440 Speaker 2: the budget came out was the beleagued government one would 544 00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:29,919 Speaker 2: you describe your government as beleagued and too. How did 545 00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:30,760 Speaker 2: the budget go down? 546 00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:36,560 Speaker 12: It is very beleagued. Really, this budget has come at 547 00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:40,080 Speaker 12: a bad time for this new Prime Minister Vagnier. Yeah, 548 00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:41,600 Speaker 12: it's all bad news, Mike. 549 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:42,199 Speaker 13: There is. 550 00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:46,639 Speaker 12: The deficit is around six percent of GDP. That the 551 00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:49,280 Speaker 12: President had promised it would be four point four percent 552 00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:52,960 Speaker 12: this year. You know, it really isn't That isn't good. 553 00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:55,440 Speaker 12: They need to get it down to about three percent 554 00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 12: to go in with the EU. So they've come up 555 00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:01,120 Speaker 12: with this with this budget. I mean, the sums are 556 00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:01,840 Speaker 12: just astounding. 557 00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:02,400 Speaker 13: They need to. 558 00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:07,120 Speaker 12: Make about seventy three billion New Zealand dollars in spending cuts, 559 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:12,359 Speaker 12: and they need to bring in about sixty billion new 560 00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:15,360 Speaker 12: Zealand dollars in new taxes, which they say they'll get 561 00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:21,240 Speaker 12: from large companies and wealthy homeowners. They're knocking about seven 562 00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 12: billion New Zealand dollars off the healthcare budget. They're delaying 563 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:29,760 Speaker 12: infleation adaptation for pensions for a year and he's got 564 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:33,200 Speaker 12: to get that through parliament. It's now in the Finance Committee. 565 00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:36,919 Speaker 12: It's only been there for a few days. Yes, it 566 00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:40,439 Speaker 12: is bad. France shouldn't have the stat but it hasn't 567 00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:43,919 Speaker 12: balanced its budget Mike for about fifty years. They like 568 00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:48,280 Speaker 12: all other countries. The headwinds that it's got are really bad. 569 00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:52,240 Speaker 12: You've got troubling international situation, you don't know how the 570 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:56,359 Speaker 12: market's going to react, You've got widening deficits, and you've 571 00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:59,760 Speaker 12: got what later this month's Moodies is going to give 572 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:03,040 Speaker 12: it credit rating on France and next month s and 573 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:06,240 Speaker 12: P so borrowing could get even more expensive for the 574 00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:07,400 Speaker 12: French treasury. 575 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:09,679 Speaker 2: Sounds a fun time. Good to catch up, katherineppreciate it 576 00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:12,040 Speaker 2: very much. Catherine Field out of France this morning. Just quickly, 577 00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:15,679 Speaker 2: Tusk and Poland announced over the weekend temporarily suspending the 578 00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:19,119 Speaker 2: right to asylum as part of a new migration strategy 579 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:22,560 Speaker 2: to compact what he calls irregular migration, so that despite 580 00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:24,840 Speaker 2: the end of some of that particular problem continues in Europe. 581 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 2: Night Away from seven. 582 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:30,680 Speaker 1: On My Costal Breakfast with Bailey's Real Estate News Talk ZV. 583 00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:34,000 Speaker 2: Just the people of Wellington sick of it. Three Wellington 584 00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:36,439 Speaker 2: business associations have got together over this mess of the 585 00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:40,520 Speaker 2: Golden Mile. She was on. Tory was on the radio 586 00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:44,359 Speaker 2: locally in zb yesterday talking about the list of non negotiables. 587 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 2: One of the non negotiables, and this is how democracy 588 00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:49,560 Speaker 2: works in the Tory world, we have non negotiables. Heaven forbid, 589 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:51,399 Speaker 2: the people would have an opinion anyway. One of the 590 00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:55,240 Speaker 2: non negotiables is the Golden Mile so Retail New Zealand, 591 00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:57,800 Speaker 2: Hospitality in New Zealand, and the Bust and Coach Association. 592 00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:02,560 Speaker 2: Not natural bedfellows wouldn't have thought, especially in view of 593 00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:06,480 Speaker 2: the disastrous impacts the Thorndon Key project as having on 594 00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:10,920 Speaker 2: local businesses. They universally cried out to the council. We 595 00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:14,400 Speaker 2: expect more businesses will face closure or need to move 596 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:18,040 Speaker 2: out of the area. My question really simply just how 597 00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:21,639 Speaker 2: many businesses need to go under before some idiot on 598 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:26,359 Speaker 2: the council finally wakes up and realizes that maybe, just 599 00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:30,880 Speaker 2: maybe what they're doing isn't wanted, isn't needed, and isn't 600 00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:33,359 Speaker 2: going to work. And are they going to realize that 601 00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:37,000 Speaker 2: before Nicola and Christopher from down the road come in 602 00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:38,640 Speaker 2: and go, you guys are out, and we'll get some 603 00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:40,520 Speaker 2: professionals and four away from seven. 604 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 1: Well, the ins are the outs. It's the biz. With 605 00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:48,520 Speaker 1: business fiber, take your business productivity to the next level. 606 00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:51,640 Speaker 2: Now the European as we were with Catherine a moment ago, 607 00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:54,480 Speaker 2: the European Central Bank ECB is back most likely for 608 00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:56,960 Speaker 2: another crack at their cash rape this week. Inflation currently 609 00:28:56,960 --> 00:28:59,280 Speaker 2: a one point eight percent under the two percent target, 610 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:01,880 Speaker 2: of course, or inflation that takes out your energy, your food, 611 00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:04,560 Speaker 2: you boost in your tobacco. That's two point seven. The 612 00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:07,480 Speaker 2: current prediction for the ECB is another twenty five basis 613 00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:11,360 Speaker 2: point cut this week. That'll be followed they think, by 614 00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:14,200 Speaker 2: a fourth straight in December. So the central banks around 615 00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:15,520 Speaker 2: the world are on a bit of a roll at 616 00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:17,720 Speaker 2: the moment. That'll put the central Bank's key rate at 617 00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:19,880 Speaker 2: three percent by the end of the year. Now, the 618 00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:22,720 Speaker 2: forecast for growth they've worked down a little Bit's gone 619 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:25,360 Speaker 2: down to zero point eight for the year, slightly down 620 00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:28,160 Speaker 2: from the zero point nine they thought that at the beginning. 621 00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:28,200 Speaker 5: Of the year. 622 00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:30,760 Speaker 2: But zero point nine, zero point eight. But they say 623 00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:33,800 Speaker 2: next year, they say, hey, guess what, next year, inflation 624 00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:36,040 Speaker 2: is not going to be a major issue at all. 625 00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:40,560 Speaker 2: And so the entrails of this whole bizarre experiment by 626 00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:42,600 Speaker 2: central banks all over the world as to who handled 627 00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:45,120 Speaker 2: it better and who didn't. My money at the moment, 628 00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:47,640 Speaker 2: we've yet to see Australia finish up because they haven't 629 00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:50,320 Speaker 2: even cut yet. And they haven't cut because they've still 630 00:29:50,320 --> 00:29:52,360 Speaker 2: got some buoyancy in the economy. And the great debate 631 00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:54,120 Speaker 2: is going on between the central Bank and the government 632 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:56,440 Speaker 2: as to whether that buoyancy is too much government spending 633 00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:58,640 Speaker 2: because it's a labor government. But my bet at the 634 00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:00,600 Speaker 2: moment is the Central Bank of a Marria has done 635 00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:03,120 Speaker 2: it the best they've They've engineered pretty much a soft landing. 636 00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 2: No one universally has lost their job. There's certainly been 637 00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:09,360 Speaker 2: no recession, so I think they at this point anyway 638 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:11,360 Speaker 2: get the gold medal for that exercise. 639 00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:16,160 Speaker 1: The newsmakers and the personalities of the big names talk 640 00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:20,720 Speaker 1: to like the costing Breakfast with Bailey's real Estate.

The 645 00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:32,880 Speaker 2: last cab off the rank's going to be the job market. 646 00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:35,680 Speaker 2: Jobs seeking numbers are up twelve percent since this time 647 00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:38,160 Speaker 2: last year. That's an extra twelve thousand people for were wins. 648 00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:40,600 Speaker 2: Boss Christine ranking with us on this Christine Morning to you. 649 00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:42,240 Speaker 18: Good morning, Mike. 650 00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:44,440 Speaker 2: Do you subscribe to the broad theory that it is 651 00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:46,719 Speaker 2: jobs the last to be seen to coming right, so 652 00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:48,320 Speaker 2: everything comes right by the jobs. 653 00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:54,840 Speaker 18: Yes, absolutely, And this was expected and predicted by economists 654 00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:58,160 Speaker 18: and we haven't reached the peak yet, so it's obvious 655 00:30:58,200 --> 00:30:59,960 Speaker 18: that it's going to get worse before it gets pretty. 656 00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:02,640 Speaker 18: You can't turn a mess of an economy around like 657 00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:05,000 Speaker 18: this in a year, there's no doubt about that. 658 00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:07,160 Speaker 2: No, you can't. The sticky bit for the government was 659 00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:09,880 Speaker 2: they tightened the rules around the unemployment at a time 660 00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:12,560 Speaker 2: when jobs were actually disappearing, which made it difficult. 661 00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:12,600 Speaker 10: Didn't it. 662 00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:16,200 Speaker 18: No, I don't believe that does make it difficult. What 663 00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:19,240 Speaker 18: it does is ensure that job seekers do not rock 664 00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 18: on that benefit, and that's what happened with the last regime. 665 00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:25,720 Speaker 18: This is actually a gift that they've got that in 666 00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:29,440 Speaker 18: place now because nobody's going to be stuck on that benefit. Look, 667 00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:32,760 Speaker 18: we are losing, we have got people on benefit, more 668 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:34,840 Speaker 18: people on benefit, But there are a lot of jobs 669 00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:38,000 Speaker 18: out there, and it's about the motivation and the confidence 670 00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:41,040 Speaker 18: to get them back into work different. 671 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:45,120 Speaker 2: Work and does the department actually do that? I mean, 672 00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:47,040 Speaker 2: what's the role of the department And where's the line 673 00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:49,000 Speaker 2: between I've lost my job so it's up to me 674 00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:51,640 Speaker 2: to find another job versus some government Wonkho's going to go, well, 675 00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:53,360 Speaker 2: what you should be doing? This, this, this and this. 676 00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:57,000 Speaker 18: Look, you're absolutely right. There are a lot of people 677 00:31:57,080 --> 00:31:59,920 Speaker 18: who won't go near any government department unless they need 678 00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:02,720 Speaker 18: support of that benefit. And then they get into the 679 00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:05,840 Speaker 18: system and have to have that government wonk as you 680 00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:09,520 Speaker 18: call them, to help facilitate it. A lot of people 681 00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:12,640 Speaker 18: will find their own jobs, but if they don't, yes 682 00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:17,480 Speaker 18: that this minister is absolutely determined about what this government 683 00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:19,560 Speaker 18: department is going to do. I don't think it's done 684 00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:22,040 Speaker 18: it for a long time, but I'm sure it's very 685 00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:23,760 Speaker 18: excited to be doing it again. 686 00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:25,240 Speaker 16: It's real work. 687 00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:27,719 Speaker 2: What do you do with a bloke who was at 688 00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:30,000 Speaker 2: a mill in the middle of the North Island, small town, 689 00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:32,400 Speaker 2: New Zealand, whose mill got closed and he's now looking 690 00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:35,160 Speaker 2: at Australia. Do you say bye bye and all the best? 691 00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:36,520 Speaker 2: What do you do with them? 692 00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:40,160 Speaker 18: Well, unless there really is an alternative there, you can 693 00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:43,800 Speaker 18: absolutely understand why he's going to Australia. This isn't going 694 00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:46,400 Speaker 18: to happen to him again over there, and the conditions 695 00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:48,520 Speaker 18: are going to be much better. If I was running 696 00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:50,800 Speaker 18: wealthare now, I'd be telling my people if there weren't 697 00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,440 Speaker 18: jobs there, do everything you can to support them to go. 698 00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:54,960 Speaker 15: They have a right to that. 699 00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:57,760 Speaker 2: Life, right, Christine, appreciate your expertise as almost Christine Rank 700 00:32:57,800 --> 00:32:59,640 Speaker 2: and form a Wind's boss Wethers name in it's Past 701 00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:02,560 Speaker 2: seven Past Game, johb Sir Brian Roach has named as 702 00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:04,840 Speaker 2: our next public service Commission. Of the public service, of course, 703 00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:07,000 Speaker 2: has been hammered as the new government tries to rebalance 704 00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:09,520 Speaker 2: the economy. So what sort of task does he have? 705 00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:11,200 Speaker 2: Sir Brian's, Well, this is a very good morning to you. 706 00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:12,880 Speaker 15: Good morning mine. 707 00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:14,680 Speaker 2: I looked at you CV this morning. You've done a 708 00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:16,600 Speaker 2: lot of public work. Do you love public life? In 709 00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:19,480 Speaker 2: terms of the public service, I don't. 710 00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:22,880 Speaker 15: Like public life, but I do like serving in public There. 711 00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:28,360 Speaker 2: Is it an effective means of your time, expertise and skills, 712 00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:29,080 Speaker 2: do you think? 713 00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:33,480 Speaker 15: I absolutely believe so. I mean, that's just taken a 714 00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:37,600 Speaker 15: big decision to change the directory of my life. But 715 00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:40,360 Speaker 15: I believe that I have a contribution to make and 716 00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:42,120 Speaker 15: I'm privileged to be able to do that. 717 00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:43,840 Speaker 2: It's not a bad point because you're going for a 718 00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:46,480 Speaker 2: shortened term. Your shortened term because you've got bigger fish 719 00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:48,160 Speaker 2: to fry in other things to do, or you think 720 00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:50,440 Speaker 2: you're extremely effective and we'll be able to get five 721 00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:53,880 Speaker 2: years worth of work done in two years eight months. 722 00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:56,800 Speaker 15: I think I'm an effect that I'm not a super man. 723 00:33:57,360 --> 00:34:00,040 Speaker 15: It's more just the reflection of an aging process. A 724 00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:01,120 Speaker 15: time to be honest. 725 00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:04,800 Speaker 2: Does it depend on the government of the day how 726 00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:06,200 Speaker 2: the public service works? 727 00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:08,239 Speaker 13: I do. 728 00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:10,600 Speaker 15: I do because the government sets the tone and this 729 00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:13,560 Speaker 15: government has been very clear that they're looking to raise 730 00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:16,360 Speaker 15: the performance of the public sector. I think the public 731 00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:20,000 Speaker 15: sector itself would like to raise its performance and that's 732 00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:21,520 Speaker 15: part of the task ahead. 733 00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:22,560 Speaker 2: How do you do that. 734 00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:27,319 Speaker 15: You do that ultimately through getting good quality people who 735 00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:30,200 Speaker 15: believe in what they're doing. I think the public service 736 00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:34,400 Speaker 15: in New Zealand are very good, but like every other business, frustracting. 737 00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:38,279 Speaker 15: There is no business that can't perform better, and you 738 00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:41,080 Speaker 15: know all businesses are under pressure in New Zealand. The 739 00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:42,600 Speaker 15: public sector is no difference. 740 00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:43,520 Speaker 11: I have to. 741 00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:47,560 Speaker 15: Bring some stabilization and re orientation to that and I 742 00:34:47,600 --> 00:34:48,640 Speaker 15: feel I can do that. 743 00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:53,120 Speaker 2: I'm seeing as an observer some pushback from the public 744 00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:56,800 Speaker 2: service at the moment, especially around, for example, race relating issues. 745 00:34:56,800 --> 00:34:58,279 Speaker 2: So the new governor to the day says, we're not 746 00:34:58,320 --> 00:35:02,000 Speaker 2: having race related issues. We don't base judgment on race anymore. 747 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:04,239 Speaker 2: But I'm seeing pushback in the public service. Do you 748 00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:06,000 Speaker 2: see that as an issue? And if you do, what 749 00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:06,840 Speaker 2: do you do about that? 750 00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:10,879 Speaker 15: Look, I haven't taken up the child yet. It will 751 00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:12,520 Speaker 15: be an issue, and that's an issue I'm just going 752 00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:14,359 Speaker 15: to have to face. But it's one that I'm really 753 00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:17,080 Speaker 15: confident about. You know, the quality of the leadership and 754 00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:20,400 Speaker 15: the public sector is there. Ultimately the public sector that 755 00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:23,080 Speaker 15: is there to serve the government of the day, and 756 00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:25,880 Speaker 15: they have to do that without fear or favor. 757 00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:26,759 Speaker 5: Yeah. 758 00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:29,320 Speaker 2: See that's what That's why I raise the question, because 759 00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:32,120 Speaker 2: that's the theory on the piece of paper that they're 760 00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:33,600 Speaker 2: there to serve the government of the day. When you 761 00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:35,440 Speaker 2: see pushback, they're not serving the government of the day. 762 00:35:35,440 --> 00:35:36,800 Speaker 2: They're serving themselves, aren't they. 763 00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:39,960 Speaker 15: Yeah, And that's an issue that they have to deal with. Ultimately, 764 00:35:40,040 --> 00:35:42,600 Speaker 15: if you can't serve the government, then you have to 765 00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:47,000 Speaker 15: make decision around where your career is going. But ultimately, 766 00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:49,879 Speaker 15: good people will make this work. And I'm confident we've 767 00:35:49,880 --> 00:35:50,960 Speaker 15: got good people. 768 00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:52,680 Speaker 2: Good stuff. Good luck with the jobs. Brian Right, who's 769 00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:56,319 Speaker 2: the new Public Service Commissioner? Twelve minutes past seven past 770 00:35:56,360 --> 00:35:59,160 Speaker 2: games we once worked for the public doesn't any more goals. 771 00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:02,080 Speaker 2: Garriman was in care or yesterday appealing. This surprised me. 772 00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:06,279 Speaker 2: She pleaded guilty, so it's unusual. I think I'm right 773 00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:08,640 Speaker 2: in saying this. It's unusual to plead guilty to something 774 00:36:09,040 --> 00:36:12,880 Speaker 2: and then come back for an appeal. So they declined 775 00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:15,400 Speaker 2: initially a request for a discharge without conviction that was 776 00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:18,320 Speaker 2: back at the original trial. And we also have confusion 777 00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:20,640 Speaker 2: around the so called job at the ICC, the International 778 00:36:20,719 --> 00:36:24,720 Speaker 2: Criminal Court. If they've been convicted of serious criminal offending, 779 00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:27,560 Speaker 2: you can't work at the ICC. But we don't know 780 00:36:27,880 --> 00:36:30,759 Speaker 2: whether Garriman's offending was serious enough to trigger that. We 781 00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:34,640 Speaker 2: also don't know this from the Crown Solicitor, any impact 782 00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:37,319 Speaker 2: of Garriman's future employment of mental health, whether they were 783 00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:40,400 Speaker 2: consequences of the offending and themselves not the convictions and 784 00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:44,120 Speaker 2: their lawyer, her lawyer didn't turn up with any indicating 785 00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:46,920 Speaker 2: information as to whether she'd actually applied for a job 786 00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:48,799 Speaker 2: at the ICC, whether there was a job to be 787 00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:51,160 Speaker 2: applied for at the ICC, or whether she was just 788 00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:53,919 Speaker 2: appealing for the sake of appealing. She did not hold 789 00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:57,160 Speaker 2: a current practicing certificate, far less an application for a job. Anyway, 790 00:36:57,400 --> 00:37:01,600 Speaker 2: Justice Venning, who's overseeing this, has reserved their decisions, so 791 00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:05,120 Speaker 2: it'll be interesting to see where this goes. Thirteen past the. 792 00:37:05,160 --> 00:37:09,560 Speaker 1: Mike Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered by 793 00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:10,400 Speaker 1: News Talks at B. 794 00:37:11,480 --> 00:37:13,360 Speaker 2: Very good point on the text, Mic, isn't the impact 795 00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:16,439 Speaker 2: on future work part of the deterrent? I'm sure they're 796 00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:18,480 Speaker 2: taking all of that into consideration. Mike WHN Do you 797 00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:19,520 Speaker 2: have Will buckson on the show? 798 00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:19,960 Speaker 5: After right? 799 00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:23,560 Speaker 2: Sixteen minutes past seven? Are good news in our aviation sector? Well, 800 00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:25,160 Speaker 2: I think it's good. New smaller planes seem to be 801 00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:28,400 Speaker 2: picking up increasing business. Barrier Air, for example, started an 802 00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:30,800 Speaker 2: Auckland to kerry Kerey route back in August. Seats continue 803 00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:32,800 Speaker 2: to sell out, which is good. So are we seeing 804 00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:35,640 Speaker 2: a sort of a reshaping of the regional landscape? Barrier 805 00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:37,759 Speaker 2: Air Boss Grant bacons with us Grant, morning to. 806 00:37:37,719 --> 00:37:39,640 Speaker 5: You, Good morning, Mike, how much. 807 00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:42,000 Speaker 2: I'm very well indeed, thank you.

Yep, no, that's that's certainly paying its way. 816 00:38:07,960 --> 00:38:10,040 Speaker 2: So when we see in New Zealand in the news 817 00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:13,240 Speaker 2: last week they're cutting down services between christ Church, Queenstown, 818 00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:15,920 Speaker 2: Duneed and Wellington, christ Church, New Plymouth, blenha and Wellington, 819 00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:18,239 Speaker 2: do you go hello there's an opportunity or not. 820 00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:24,080 Speaker 16: Yeah. Absolutely, there's a fair amount of I guess robustness 821 00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:26,840 Speaker 16: we need to see with Kerry Kerry in terms of 822 00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:30,520 Speaker 16: making sure that the model does work. But as the 823 00:38:30,680 --> 00:38:34,640 Speaker 16: days and months go on, we're seeing that a complementary 824 00:38:34,760 --> 00:38:38,800 Speaker 16: service in line with the National carrier is actually proving 825 00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:42,240 Speaker 16: to be great for consumers and has a viable business 826 00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:43,040 Speaker 16: case as well. 827 00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:45,960 Speaker 2: Is there a big difference between say, Auckland Kerry Carey's 828 00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:50,320 Speaker 2: drivable Dunedin, Wellington, christ Church, New Plymouth isn't does that 829 00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:52,839 Speaker 2: make a material difference to a company like yours. 830 00:38:53,760 --> 00:38:59,160 Speaker 16: Yeah, it does. So we've got quite a good reputation 831 00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:01,960 Speaker 16: in the North New Zealand. We've built the business since 832 00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:07,480 Speaker 16: twenty fifteen. What we see as an issue in terms 833 00:39:07,520 --> 00:39:10,400 Speaker 16: of those longer routes is the fact that actually at 834 00:39:10,440 --> 00:39:13,840 Speaker 16: the moment, the regional aviation space is in poor shape. 835 00:39:13,880 --> 00:39:16,719 Speaker 16: And that is not only relevant to New Zealand. It's 836 00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:20,280 Speaker 16: also moving into other countries as well where they're having issues. 837 00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:23,759 Speaker 16: And that primarily comes down to the fact that there's 838 00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:27,319 Speaker 16: actually not a lot of aircraft being manufactured right now 839 00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:31,279 Speaker 16: that is capable of doing those longer routes. So that 840 00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:32,040 Speaker 16: is an issue. 841 00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:34,200 Speaker 2: So that's an issue even for a company like us, 842 00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:35,879 Speaker 2: because I'm looking at Etty Guard the other day. They're 843 00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:37,960 Speaker 2: re refurbishing all their fleets. I mean, this is a big, 844 00:39:38,040 --> 00:39:40,759 Speaker 2: major international player. They cannot get planes for lavend or money. 845 00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:43,520 Speaker 2: Boeing's on strike at the moment, Airbus deliveries are down, 846 00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:46,560 Speaker 2: so even at your small plane level, it's an issue. 847 00:39:47,719 --> 00:39:51,839 Speaker 16: Yeah, most definitely. So not only can you not find aeroplanes, 848 00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:55,480 Speaker 16: you can't get parts for them, and that's a major 849 00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:58,759 Speaker 16: contributor to where the fair prices had to go over 850 00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:03,160 Speaker 16: to last eighteen months in terms of what a consumer pays. 851 00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:10,640 Speaker 16: And then the technology. A lot of legacy aircraft manufacturers 852 00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:16,520 Speaker 16: of a smaller nature have stopped producing or they're moving 853 00:40:16,560 --> 00:40:19,400 Speaker 16: their attention else where. So it is an issue to 854 00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:23,560 Speaker 16: fulfiller into island route of a slightly longer haul. 855 00:40:24,160 --> 00:40:26,120 Speaker 2: Interesting insight, Grant, glad it's going well for you though, 856 00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:29,640 Speaker 2: Grant Bacon Barrier air CEO with us this morning. I 857 00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:31,920 Speaker 2: introduced a little bit of it yesterday or did I 858 00:40:32,040 --> 00:40:35,600 Speaker 2: I can't remember.

File note from the Solicitor General 886 00:41:48,080 --> 00:41:50,719 Speaker 2: to the Police Prosecution Service about the new system they 887 00:41:50,719 --> 00:41:53,359 Speaker 2: will have in place as of the start next year. 888 00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:58,799 Speaker 2: Now we have the SG starts updated the prosecution guidelines. 889 00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:00,920 Speaker 2: The goals remain to ensure you are I'm quoting him here. 890 00:42:01,360 --> 00:42:05,040 Speaker 2: New Zealand continues to benefit from prosecution processes which are 891 00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:08,920 Speaker 2: underscored by the core values of transparency, equality and fair 892 00:42:08,960 --> 00:42:11,520 Speaker 2: application of the law to all participants, and reflect the 893 00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:15,319 Speaker 2: legitimate public interest in prosecuting criminal offending. Well, so far, 894 00:42:15,440 --> 00:42:17,920 Speaker 2: so good, right, But then but then they get to 895 00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:22,520 Speaker 2: this bit. The guidelines ask prosecutors to quote unquote think 896 00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:27,400 Speaker 2: carefully about particular decisions were a person as Maori or 897 00:42:27,440 --> 00:42:30,520 Speaker 2: a member of any other group disproportionately impact by the 898 00:42:30,560 --> 00:42:34,600 Speaker 2: criminal justice system. This does not promote different treatment based 899 00:42:34,640 --> 00:42:38,280 Speaker 2: on ethnicity or membership of a particular group. It instead 900 00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:42,480 Speaker 2: alerts prosecutors to situations and factors that may deliver inequitable 901 00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:47,400 Speaker 2: outcomes for some people in those groups. Quick question, what 902 00:42:47,480 --> 00:42:49,719 Speaker 2: do you reckon that means? And does it mean what 903 00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:52,480 Speaker 2: you think it means? Without the meaning being so explicit 904 00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:54,640 Speaker 2: you go, what the hell I thought we were getting 905 00:42:54,680 --> 00:42:56,720 Speaker 2: rid of all of this nonsense? And all this nonsense 906 00:42:56,840 --> 00:42:59,640 Speaker 2: is the problem the government has with race based ideology. 907 00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:02,480 Speaker 2: They say a lot of one thing, but are facing 908 00:43:02,520 --> 00:43:05,719 Speaker 2: a tremendous amount of pushback on it, as the university's 909 00:43:05,760 --> 00:43:08,560 Speaker 2: collapse in global rankings as published last week at least 910 00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:11,360 Speaker 2: surely in part because of their obsession with race. We 911 00:43:11,480 --> 00:43:15,600 Speaker 2: now find the justice system instructed to quote think carefully 912 00:43:16,200 --> 00:43:19,920 Speaker 2: what is this disproportion they speak of. Well, obviously, when 913 00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:22,920 Speaker 2: it comes to race, Mari are overrepresented in crime. Ask 914 00:43:23,000 --> 00:43:25,959 Speaker 2: a simple question why and the answer surely is because 915 00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:28,600 Speaker 2: sadly they commit too much of it. Another simple question 916 00:43:29,040 --> 00:43:32,440 Speaker 2: is by thinking carefully as instructed by the Solicitor General, 917 00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:35,520 Speaker 2: perhaps going to lead to I don't know, lesser charges, 918 00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:38,520 Speaker 2: whether in severity or numbers, And therefore the disproportion has 919 00:43:38,560 --> 00:43:42,719 Speaker 2: balanced out a bit. No reduction in crime, just the consequences. 920 00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:45,960 Speaker 2: And a final simple question. If the government says we 921 00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:48,920 Speaker 2: should not be having policy based on race, how do 922 00:43:49,040 --> 00:43:52,600 Speaker 2: they explain this asking? And there is more, as I 923 00:43:52,640 --> 00:43:56,279 Speaker 2: have discovered from the Solicitor General I quote them again. 924 00:43:56,320 --> 00:43:58,560 Speaker 2: The project team worked with a diverse range of views 925 00:43:58,600 --> 00:44:01,520 Speaker 2: and experiences in developing the new guidelines. We conducted the 926 00:44:01,600 --> 00:44:07,400 Speaker 2: review with Enaia Tonu Nai marii thought leaders. They played 927 00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:12,440 Speaker 2: a pivotal role as advocates for consideration of Maori experiences. Now, 928 00:44:12,520 --> 00:44:15,840 Speaker 2: who are this Enaya Tonu Nai Well, they've been around 929 00:44:16,000 --> 00:44:18,560 Speaker 2: for a long time since twenty eighteen, in fact, so 930 00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:21,840 Speaker 2: the full six years. They were born out of Maori 931 00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:25,560 Speaker 2: resistance to the lack of Mari voice at the Crown's 932 00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:27,640 Speaker 2: Criminal Justice Summit. You remember that one, that was the 933 00:44:27,680 --> 00:44:29,960 Speaker 2: one with the flash catering with Andrew Little, that was 934 00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:32,280 Speaker 2: one of his first forays into the wonderful world of justice. 935 00:44:32,560 --> 00:44:35,879 Speaker 2: So they asked for a national Mari Hui to take 936 00:44:35,960 --> 00:44:38,719 Speaker 2: place at the summit, and the Justice Minister of the time, 937 00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:42,040 Speaker 2: the fabulous Andrew Little, he said, no, no worries at all. 938 00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:45,040 Speaker 2: So they had their meeting of over two hundred mari 939 00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:49,879 Speaker 2: with extensive criminal justice experience, including those with lived experiences, 940 00:44:50,239 --> 00:44:52,759 Speaker 2: and their mission as a result of these meetings, these 941 00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:55,320 Speaker 2: get togethers, so they could go on to advise the 942 00:44:55,400 --> 00:44:59,640 Speaker 2: Solicitor General to and I quote here, to recognize the 943 00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:05,640 Speaker 2: justice this system as settler colonial and to begin decolonizing 944 00:45:06,200 --> 00:45:10,520 Speaker 2: the in brackets in justice system. So that's their guiding light, 945 00:45:10,680 --> 00:45:13,439 Speaker 2: that's their us on debt, and that's the advice they're 946 00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:15,920 Speaker 2: giving the Solicitor General, who is in turn giving the 947 00:45:16,040 --> 00:45:20,320 Speaker 2: police prosecutors the said advice. In a system that is 948 00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:22,560 Speaker 2: not supposed to be based in any way, shape or 949 00:45:22,640 --> 00:45:25,920 Speaker 2: form on race, How do we explain that and who 950 00:45:25,960 --> 00:45:29,200 Speaker 2: do we ask about this? I know, how about the 951 00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:32,280 Speaker 2: Prime Minister? Fortunately he's next. 952 00:45:33,560 --> 00:45:43,920 Speaker 1: Hell the breakfast show you can trust the Mic Hosking 953 00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:48,319 Speaker 1: Breakfast with al Vida, Retirement Communities, Life Your Way News 954 00:45:48,400 --> 00:45:49,160 Speaker 1: togsad been. 955 00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:51,759 Speaker 2: Bull of drive to survive fame of course, a f 956 00:45:51,840 --> 00:45:53,600 Speaker 2: one journalist in his own right. And we're building up 957 00:45:53,600 --> 00:45:56,680 Speaker 2: to the return of Eplue this weekend in Austin, Texas 958 00:45:56,760 --> 00:45:58,719 Speaker 2: with Leeam Lawson on board.

And that's why we've been proud to support them, 967 00:46:19,360 --> 00:46:21,680 Speaker 5: because it's about Kiyi's dealing with the young young key 968 00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:22,960 Speaker 5: is dealing with their mental health. We're going to have 969 00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:25,480 Speaker 5: an extra fifteen thousand counseling session for those young Kiwi's, 970 00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:28,759 Speaker 5: which who desperately needed at a pretty desperate time. So look, 971 00:46:28,800 --> 00:46:30,799 Speaker 5: it's a great organization. I'm proud that we're supporting them. 972 00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:32,759 Speaker 2: Why did the Order to General say what the Order 973 00:46:32,840 --> 00:46:35,360 Speaker 2: to general said, oh. 974 00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:38,120 Speaker 5: Look, I mean they're an independent role. They're entitled to 975 00:46:38,160 --> 00:46:40,640 Speaker 5: their views. But look, we campaigned on this. We then 976 00:46:40,719 --> 00:46:42,800 Speaker 5: said we said what we did, we're going to do. 977 00:46:42,920 --> 00:46:44,920 Speaker 5: We did it, and I'm proud that we have. So 978 00:46:46,080 --> 00:46:47,680 Speaker 5: you know, it's good that they look at the process 979 00:46:47,760 --> 00:46:51,000 Speaker 5: and they can raise their raise their advice on it. 980 00:46:51,080 --> 00:46:53,120 Speaker 5: But the BOTO liners, we're doing it. We're backing a 981 00:46:53,239 --> 00:46:55,680 Speaker 5: Gunbat Friday. They do great work and fifteen thousand young 982 00:46:55,719 --> 00:46:56,520 Speaker 5: chemis get counseling. 983 00:46:56,719 --> 00:46:59,759 Speaker 2: So you're arguing, basically, we're the government, will do what 984 00:46:59,840 --> 00:47:02,080 Speaker 2: we want, bug of the process, and he can write 985 00:47:02,080 --> 00:47:04,200 Speaker 2: all the reports he wants. You're not paying attention to 986 00:47:04,239 --> 00:47:05,160 Speaker 2: this particular case. 987 00:47:05,800 --> 00:47:07,560 Speaker 5: But I'm not saying that. I'm just saying that, you know, 988 00:47:07,680 --> 00:47:10,239 Speaker 5: Gunboat Friday we talked about in the campaign as being 989 00:47:10,280 --> 00:47:12,879 Speaker 5: a great example of a community organization doing good work 990 00:47:12,960 --> 00:47:16,680 Speaker 5: that could be scaled more and unique work actually, and 991 00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:19,360 Speaker 5: I spoke to a number of young people, you know, 992 00:47:19,640 --> 00:47:21,759 Speaker 5: and we put the money into that organization. It was 993 00:47:21,800 --> 00:47:23,360 Speaker 5: also something that you tell the first wanted to do 994 00:47:24,120 --> 00:47:26,600 Speaker 5: both both parties, and I'm pleased that we are because 995 00:47:26,800 --> 00:47:28,399 Speaker 5: I'm getting access to count way. 996 00:47:28,400 --> 00:47:30,280 Speaker 2: I defend your right to do it because you're the government. 997 00:47:30,320 --> 00:47:32,560 Speaker 2: But Matt Doucy did he throws officials under the bus 998 00:47:32,640 --> 00:47:34,480 Speaker 2: when he said, and I quote. Throughout the process, the 999 00:47:34,520 --> 00:47:38,000 Speaker 2: Minister has sought and received assurances from officials that the 1000 00:47:38,040 --> 00:47:41,320 Speaker 2: implementation option chosen by the Ministry of Health is compliant 1001 00:47:41,320 --> 00:47:44,560 Speaker 2: with government procedural rules. That simply isn't true. 1002 00:47:45,800 --> 00:47:48,320 Speaker 5: Oh well, look, I think you know it was unusual 1003 00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:50,520 Speaker 5: in the sense of we had campaigned on it. We 1004 00:47:50,640 --> 00:47:52,719 Speaker 5: believe it's a great organization. We think it's a good 1005 00:47:52,800 --> 00:47:57,200 Speaker 5: investment in young people, and you know, the new Order 1006 00:47:57,200 --> 00:47:59,960 Speaker 5: to General can can write their report and can say 1007 00:48:00,239 --> 00:48:02,560 Speaker 5: there's some things that they think we could do better, 1008 00:48:02,600 --> 00:48:05,560 Speaker 5: but the bottom line is a good organization. We're backing up. 1009 00:48:05,960 --> 00:48:08,400 Speaker 2: What are the odds of you stepping into Wellington Council. 1010 00:48:09,840 --> 00:48:12,360 Speaker 5: Well, we're pretty concerned about it. If I'm honest, it 1011 00:48:12,680 --> 00:48:15,560 Speaker 5: doesn't look great. Their long term plan looks at risk. 1012 00:48:16,239 --> 00:48:18,400 Speaker 5: It's something we're monitoring really closely. I know some of 1013 00:48:18,480 --> 00:48:21,399 Speaker 5: and Brown in particular is all over it, and we'll 1014 00:48:21,400 --> 00:48:22,759 Speaker 5: continue to monitor it and if we have to make 1015 00:48:22,760 --> 00:48:23,920 Speaker 5: an intervention, we will. 1016 00:48:24,080 --> 00:48:25,720 Speaker 2: What would have to happen for you to move. 1017 00:48:27,080 --> 00:48:30,239 Speaker 5: Well, I think we want to understand you know. Yeah, 1018 00:48:30,560 --> 00:48:32,480 Speaker 5: I know he'll be looking very closely at the long 1019 00:48:32,600 --> 00:48:35,440 Speaker 5: term plan, which is at risk under the failure to 1020 00:48:35,640 --> 00:48:37,600 Speaker 5: be able to sell the airport. She is willing to 1021 00:48:37,640 --> 00:48:39,960 Speaker 5: the airport, and he'll want a pathway and to make 1022 00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:42,960 Speaker 5: sure that they're doing everything they can to be financially 1023 00:48:43,000 --> 00:48:45,160 Speaker 5: responsible to keep rates as low as possible. 1024 00:48:45,400 --> 00:48:48,200 Speaker 2: Can I quote you the Solicitor General in their advice 1025 00:48:48,360 --> 00:48:52,239 Speaker 2: to the Prosecution service at the police the guidelines asked 1026 00:48:52,280 --> 00:48:55,720 Speaker 2: prosecutors to think carefully about particular decisions. We're a person, 1027 00:48:55,840 --> 00:48:58,640 Speaker 2: whether the victim or a defendant is Maori. What does 1028 00:48:58,719 --> 00:48:59,040 Speaker 2: that mean? 1029 00:49:00,360 --> 00:49:03,400 Speaker 5: Well, I mean what I'd say is that prosecution decisions 1030 00:49:03,400 --> 00:49:06,520 Speaker 5: should be color blind. But also the prosecution guidelines are 1031 00:49:06,640 --> 00:49:10,680 Speaker 5: independently issued by this Solicited General. They are someone you know, 1032 00:49:10,800 --> 00:49:12,440 Speaker 5: and I really can't get You should ask her a 1033 00:49:12,440 --> 00:49:14,480 Speaker 5: But I mean, I can't really get into it because 1034 00:49:14,520 --> 00:49:17,480 Speaker 5: I've got to respect the other elements of our democracy, 1035 00:49:17,520 --> 00:49:20,640 Speaker 5: the judiciary, and I've got to focus on what I 1036 00:49:20,719 --> 00:49:23,480 Speaker 5: can control, and what we are controlling is restoring law 1037 00:49:23,520 --> 00:49:23,839 Speaker 5: and order. 1038 00:49:24,120 --> 00:49:27,360 Speaker 2: I thought you controlled whether we had race based policy 1039 00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:27,960 Speaker 2: in this country. 1040 00:49:28,680 --> 00:49:30,960 Speaker 5: Well, we made a decision very clear. What we have 1041 00:49:31,120 --> 00:49:35,000 Speaker 5: controlled as tough new gang laws. We've limited, you know, 1042 00:49:35,440 --> 00:49:37,960 Speaker 5: sentencing discounts. We've actually stopped the cottage industry around the 1043 00:49:37,960 --> 00:49:41,959 Speaker 5: preparation of Section twenty seven cultural reports, and we've got. 1044 00:49:41,880 --> 00:49:44,480 Speaker 2: A very race prostitution decision should be with race that's 1045 00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:48,360 Speaker 2: more justice is the Solicitor General thumbing her knows that. 1046 00:49:48,400 --> 00:49:51,480 Speaker 5: You well again, I mean it's an independent role. I 1047 00:49:51,640 --> 00:49:54,160 Speaker 5: encourage you to ask those questions to her. I really 1048 00:49:54,760 --> 00:49:56,239 Speaker 5: got to can't get into it because I've got to 1049 00:49:56,239 --> 00:49:56,680 Speaker 5: respect the. 1050 00:49:57,239 --> 00:49:59,560 Speaker 2: But here's my problem. I'm listening to you as a 1051 00:49:59,640 --> 00:50:02,040 Speaker 2: government who I thought was running the country with a 1052 00:50:02,160 --> 00:50:05,560 Speaker 2: series of fairly clear objectives around race, and you say 1053 00:50:05,600 --> 00:50:07,319 Speaker 2: one thing and another thing is done, and I don't 1054 00:50:07,400 --> 00:50:07,880 Speaker 2: understand that. 1055 00:50:09,080 --> 00:50:11,960 Speaker 5: Well, again, what I can do is we can focus 1056 00:50:12,000 --> 00:50:14,320 Speaker 5: on what we can control, which is the executive. 1057 00:50:15,440 --> 00:50:17,080 Speaker 2: Saying, by the way, what we would like to do 1058 00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:19,520 Speaker 2: in this country is have non race based policies. But 1059 00:50:19,680 --> 00:50:22,360 Speaker 2: I'm not sure we'll be able to because I'm expecting 1060 00:50:22,400 --> 00:50:24,880 Speaker 2: pushback from the public service or independent bodies. 1061 00:50:25,600 --> 00:50:27,400 Speaker 5: Well, I think we've had good support from much of 1062 00:50:27,400 --> 00:50:29,480 Speaker 5: the public service. I appreciate not everyone's on board. Of 1063 00:50:29,560 --> 00:50:31,719 Speaker 5: what we're trying to do. But the reality is the 1064 00:50:31,840 --> 00:50:34,280 Speaker 5: vast majority have and they've been actually supporting us getting 1065 00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:36,200 Speaker 5: our gender out the door. I think when you look 1066 00:50:36,200 --> 00:50:38,560 Speaker 5: at those new ganglas, that's going to help us cut 1067 00:50:38,600 --> 00:50:41,399 Speaker 5: down on violent crime. When you look at the stop 1068 00:50:41,520 --> 00:50:44,000 Speaker 5: in the section twenty seven College reports, with Harry Tam 1069 00:50:44,120 --> 00:50:46,960 Speaker 5: and Coe preparing them, we've stopped that we're putting limits 1070 00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:49,160 Speaker 5: on judges and seniencing discounts. You still always be a 1071 00:50:49,239 --> 00:50:52,160 Speaker 5: need for people to consider their individual cases and make 1072 00:50:52,239 --> 00:50:54,200 Speaker 5: the case to judges, but you know, we would expect 1073 00:50:54,239 --> 00:50:57,239 Speaker 5: that you know that these guidelines actually are designed to 1074 00:50:57,239 --> 00:50:59,719 Speaker 5: make sure there's good outcomes for people irrespect of their 1075 00:51:00,400 --> 00:51:02,799 Speaker 5: and frankly, prosecution shouldn't be as I said color line. 1076 00:51:02,840 --> 00:51:04,160 Speaker 5: So do you know that's important? 1077 00:51:04,480 --> 00:51:06,320 Speaker 2: Do you know who Anaya Tanu Nai is? 1078 00:51:07,239 --> 00:51:07,680 Speaker 5: No idea. 1079 00:51:07,920 --> 00:51:11,359 Speaker 2: These were a group of people that were consulted by 1080 00:51:11,440 --> 00:51:14,000 Speaker 2: the Solicitor General. They arrived in twenty eighteen as a 1081 00:51:14,040 --> 00:51:17,800 Speaker 2: result of Andrew Little's Justice Summit and they had a 1082 00:51:17,920 --> 00:51:21,120 Speaker 2: meeting and they want to recognize the justice system as 1083 00:51:21,200 --> 00:51:26,480 Speaker 2: settler colonial and to begin decolonizing the bracket's in justice system. 1084 00:51:26,600 --> 00:51:29,320 Speaker 2: Those are the people who are advising the Solicitor General 1085 00:51:29,400 --> 00:51:32,200 Speaker 2: before she writes to the Police Prosecution Service. Does that 1086 00:51:32,320 --> 00:51:32,680 Speaker 2: worry you? 1087 00:51:33,760 --> 00:51:35,120 Speaker 5: Well, I mean that's just not a view that I 1088 00:51:35,160 --> 00:51:36,959 Speaker 5: would hold. I mean, I think we've got a justice 1089 00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:39,520 Speaker 5: system that it needs to make sure that it prosecutes 1090 00:51:39,560 --> 00:51:41,960 Speaker 5: people in a color bline way and actually make you 1091 00:51:42,040 --> 00:51:44,520 Speaker 5: don't whe actually get well, well, we need to. I 1092 00:51:44,600 --> 00:51:47,840 Speaker 5: mean that's yeah, but we don't of it. Well, I'm 1093 00:51:47,880 --> 00:51:50,080 Speaker 5: not sure I agree with that. I appreciate that there's 1094 00:51:50,120 --> 00:51:54,360 Speaker 5: prosecution guidelines independently prepared by an independence listed General and 1095 00:51:54,480 --> 00:51:57,480 Speaker 5: a branch of democracy that I have to respect and 1096 00:51:57,600 --> 00:51:59,680 Speaker 5: I can't get into per se. But what I can 1097 00:51:59,800 --> 00:52:02,640 Speaker 5: do is make sure that because you know, they want 1098 00:52:02,680 --> 00:52:05,200 Speaker 5: to make sure prosecutioncitions are free from political influence. 1099 00:52:05,200 --> 00:52:05,560 Speaker 10: I get that. 1100 00:52:05,680 --> 00:52:06,960 Speaker 5: You know that's part of our democracy. 1101 00:52:07,160 --> 00:52:10,160 Speaker 2: Well you want to how is it you're so keen 1102 00:52:10,239 --> 00:52:12,319 Speaker 2: to adhere to the political but not to the race. 1103 00:52:13,040 --> 00:52:14,200 Speaker 2: So you don't want to get you some self in 1104 00:52:14,239 --> 00:52:16,440 Speaker 2: trouble for political but you don't mind getting yourself in 1105 00:52:16,480 --> 00:52:19,920 Speaker 2: trouble for race. Well, I mean you can't avoid these instructions. 1106 00:52:19,960 --> 00:52:23,480 Speaker 2: I mean they're explicit to recognize the justice system is 1107 00:52:23,600 --> 00:52:28,160 Speaker 2: settler colonial and to begin decolonizing the injustice and completely. 1108 00:52:28,400 --> 00:52:31,000 Speaker 5: I don't don't agree that that is a reflection of 1109 00:52:31,040 --> 00:52:31,600 Speaker 5: what our justice. 1110 00:52:31,600 --> 00:52:33,600 Speaker 2: But that's in the letter is received by the Prosecution 1111 00:52:33,719 --> 00:52:34,960 Speaker 2: Service of this country. 1112 00:52:35,200 --> 00:52:38,360 Speaker 5: And that's lists of General's an independent position and a 1113 00:52:38,440 --> 00:52:40,719 Speaker 5: part of our democracy that I have to respect. And 1114 00:52:40,800 --> 00:52:44,040 Speaker 5: so the question is what I can control is actually 1115 00:52:44,080 --> 00:52:46,560 Speaker 5: making sure that we pass as a parliament as executive 1116 00:52:46,680 --> 00:52:49,319 Speaker 5: laws that make it really clear, getting ready section twenty 1117 00:52:49,360 --> 00:52:52,000 Speaker 5: seven reports in that cottage industry is important. Making sure 1118 00:52:52,120 --> 00:52:54,279 Speaker 5: judges can put you know, we put limits on their 1119 00:52:54,320 --> 00:52:56,879 Speaker 5: sentence and discounts is important. Making sure we get tough 1120 00:52:56,960 --> 00:52:59,560 Speaker 5: new gang laws as great to get down on violent crime, 1121 00:52:59,680 --> 00:53:02,200 Speaker 5: serious and offenders, on retail crime. Those are the things 1122 00:53:02,239 --> 00:53:04,560 Speaker 5: that I can control, and I think by a larger 1123 00:53:04,719 --> 00:53:05,680 Speaker 5: justices and will deliver well. 1124 00:53:05,880 --> 00:53:09,320 Speaker 2: Okay, fast Track trans Tasman Resources, who are one of 1125 00:53:09,360 --> 00:53:12,799 Speaker 2: the people on the short list, claimed they can earn 1126 00:53:12,840 --> 00:53:15,040 Speaker 2: a billion dollars a year. I'm assuming and making the 1127 00:53:15,120 --> 00:53:17,040 Speaker 2: claim of a billion dollars a year. When the committee 1128 00:53:17,040 --> 00:53:18,839 Speaker 2: looked at the fast Track they went, jeez, that looks good. 1129 00:53:18,840 --> 00:53:20,800 Speaker 2: I'll put them on the list. Once they got on 1130 00:53:20,880 --> 00:53:23,920 Speaker 2: the list, they've said that doesn't count anymore. Are you 1131 00:53:24,000 --> 00:53:24,640 Speaker 2: in trouble with this? 1132 00:53:25,640 --> 00:53:27,080 Speaker 5: No, no, not at all. I mean, we've got to 1133 00:53:27,160 --> 00:53:29,480 Speaker 5: grow this country, and we know we've got to get 1134 00:53:29,600 --> 00:53:32,520 Speaker 5: things done, and we've got to be open to economic growth, 1135 00:53:32,680 --> 00:53:35,480 Speaker 5: and so our expert panels will go through the process 1136 00:53:35,600 --> 00:53:37,279 Speaker 5: making sure that they are. And you know that they're 1137 00:53:37,400 --> 00:53:39,440 Speaker 5: considering a whole bunch of things, of the economic impacts, 1138 00:53:39,480 --> 00:53:43,840 Speaker 5: the environmental impacts, but importantly we are prioritizing development and growth. 1139 00:53:43,880 --> 00:53:45,920 Speaker 5: You know, we want to have a high growth country. 1140 00:53:46,360 --> 00:53:49,040 Speaker 5: And for that you've got to say yes to stuff. 1141 00:53:49,120 --> 00:53:51,879 Speaker 5: And when you do, you say stuff from there who 1142 00:53:51,960 --> 00:53:55,360 Speaker 5: clearly made it up. Well, I'm not sure that that 1143 00:53:55,440 --> 00:53:57,000 Speaker 5: would be the case if I. 1144 00:53:57,120 --> 00:53:59,359 Speaker 2: Claim I'm making a billion dollars and then two days 1145 00:53:59,400 --> 00:54:01,319 Speaker 2: after I'm on the shortlist, I claim I'm not going 1146 00:54:01,360 --> 00:54:03,080 Speaker 2: to make a billion dollars. Did I make it up? 1147 00:54:03,200 --> 00:54:04,720 Speaker 2: Or did I make just a bit of a whoopsie? 1148 00:54:04,760 --> 00:54:06,440 Speaker 2: But oh well, never mind, I'm on the shortlist. 1149 00:54:07,000 --> 00:54:08,560 Speaker 5: Well, well, Mike, I'm not going to go into the 1150 00:54:08,640 --> 00:54:10,560 Speaker 5: individual cases that are in those fast tracks, but what 1151 00:54:10,680 --> 00:54:13,440 Speaker 5: I can tell you is, you know, the job of 1152 00:54:14,080 --> 00:54:19,680 Speaker 5: expert panel, Yeah, that is the job of the expert panel. No, no, 1153 00:54:20,120 --> 00:54:21,920 Speaker 5: I'm not saying I don't think they have. I mean 1154 00:54:22,160 --> 00:54:23,520 Speaker 5: they will make their assessment as to. 1155 00:54:23,480 --> 00:54:26,120 Speaker 2: Whether that's well, what do they make the national knowledge 1156 00:54:26,200 --> 00:54:27,279 Speaker 2: or something that was made up. 1157 00:54:28,560 --> 00:54:30,680 Speaker 5: Betweening on whether they have a project of regional or 1158 00:54:30,760 --> 00:54:33,239 Speaker 5: national significance as you know, under the fast tracked laws 1159 00:54:33,280 --> 00:54:35,280 Speaker 5: and what I make no apology for that. I appreciate 1160 00:54:35,320 --> 00:54:38,319 Speaker 5: there'll be controversial product project projects in there, and that's 1161 00:54:38,360 --> 00:54:40,760 Speaker 5: not a bad thing because I'm interested in actually getting 1162 00:54:40,800 --> 00:54:43,399 Speaker 5: things moving and things growing. We want to have higher 1163 00:54:43,520 --> 00:54:46,000 Speaker 5: value growth here in New Zealand. You know, you look 1164 00:54:46,040 --> 00:54:48,680 Speaker 5: at other places that are growing quicker. They got rapidly 1165 00:54:48,760 --> 00:54:51,680 Speaker 5: rising wages relative to our performances. We've got to get 1166 00:54:51,760 --> 00:54:53,640 Speaker 5: things unlocked and agreement all. 1167 00:54:53,719 --> 00:54:56,759 Speaker 2: All of that's good stuff. But in usurping, as your 1168 00:54:56,800 --> 00:54:58,760 Speaker 2: critics will tell you, some of the laws are indeed 1169 00:54:58,840 --> 00:55:00,920 Speaker 2: not changing the law so you you can fast track. 1170 00:55:01,040 --> 00:55:04,320 Speaker 2: So the scrutiny isn't there One of the first companies 1171 00:55:04,400 --> 00:55:07,600 Speaker 2: involved in the short list has been found wanting This 1172 00:55:07,760 --> 00:55:09,480 Speaker 2: opens you up to criticism, doesn't it. 1173 00:55:10,280 --> 00:55:12,840 Speaker 5: Well, again, that's a decision for the expert panel to 1174 00:55:12,920 --> 00:55:14,320 Speaker 5: make about their assessment. 1175 00:55:14,400 --> 00:55:16,360 Speaker 2: Of that each end of the expert panel aren't that 1176 00:55:16,440 --> 00:55:18,680 Speaker 2: expert after all, and they keep making mistakes like this, 1177 00:55:18,760 --> 00:55:20,560 Speaker 2: and you've got to defeend them on programs like this, 1178 00:55:20,680 --> 00:55:22,560 Speaker 2: and you'll be putting down the phone in a minute 1179 00:55:22,560 --> 00:55:23,240 Speaker 2: and going bloody. 1180 00:55:23,320 --> 00:55:27,040 Speaker 5: Hell, no, Mike, I never do that. I never do that. 1181 00:55:27,120 --> 00:55:28,880 Speaker 5: Plug on the phone and go bloody. I'll have to 1182 00:55:28,960 --> 00:55:30,880 Speaker 5: talk to you. But no, Look, I mean, look, the 1183 00:55:31,200 --> 00:55:33,279 Speaker 5: reality is that there will be controversial projects. There'll be 1184 00:55:33,280 --> 00:55:35,040 Speaker 5: a lot of people who won't like a bunch of 1185 00:55:35,120 --> 00:55:37,200 Speaker 5: projects on that list, but we're going to do them 1186 00:55:37,280 --> 00:55:40,319 Speaker 5: because actually, I think the feedback's been pretty good. People 1187 00:55:40,480 --> 00:55:42,600 Speaker 5: understand that we've got to get things done. When you 1188 00:55:42,640 --> 00:55:44,920 Speaker 5: think about fifty five thousand houses getting built, when you 1189 00:55:44,960 --> 00:55:48,080 Speaker 5: think about thirty percent more growth and electricity generation of 1190 00:55:48,239 --> 00:55:50,880 Speaker 5: our current capacity, that's good. When you think aout one 1191 00:55:50,960 --> 00:55:53,160 Speaker 5: hundred and eighty k's of new roads coming down, that's great. 1192 00:55:53,920 --> 00:55:56,520 Speaker 5: So look, there'll be controversy on a number of projects. 1193 00:55:57,560 --> 00:55:58,920 Speaker 5: You know, we've got an expert panel, we go through 1194 00:55:58,960 --> 00:56:01,799 Speaker 5: the individual cases, case by case, and then we need 1195 00:56:01,840 --> 00:56:02,359 Speaker 5: to get going. 1196 00:56:02,920 --> 00:56:06,600 Speaker 2: Appreciate your time, Christopher Luxe said it. Brian Minutster thirteen 1197 00:56:06,600 --> 00:56:07,239 Speaker 2: away from eight. 1198 00:56:08,560 --> 00:56:12,440 Speaker 1: The Mike Asking Breakfast, a full show podcast on iHeartRadio 1199 00:56:12,719 --> 00:56:14,040 Speaker 1: powered by News Talks a't be. 1200 00:56:15,400 --> 00:56:18,200 Speaker 2: Mike Luxon just confirmed my suspicion, Gutlass wonder. I think 1201 00:56:18,200 --> 00:56:20,239 Speaker 2: it's probably a bit hard a window addressing the racial 1202 00:56:20,280 --> 00:56:22,640 Speaker 2: issues so many New Zealand is concerned about, too scared 1203 00:56:22,680 --> 00:56:24,719 Speaker 2: to do what he was elected to do. I ask 1204 00:56:24,800 --> 00:56:27,960 Speaker 2: you the question, and and he's technically right. I mean, 1205 00:56:28,000 --> 00:56:30,480 Speaker 2: you've got independent bodies and you can't go against the judiciary. 1206 00:56:30,560 --> 00:56:33,279 Speaker 2: I understand that technically he is right. But surely in 1207 00:56:33,400 --> 00:56:37,239 Speaker 2: making the promises he did in the policies he campaigned on, 1208 00:56:37,680 --> 00:56:40,040 Speaker 2: he knew that. And therefore if he knew that, he 1209 00:56:40,160 --> 00:56:43,600 Speaker 2: might have put a rider in place. And I didn't 1210 00:56:43,600 --> 00:56:45,719 Speaker 2: get around to the other business credibility issues. And I 1211 00:56:45,760 --> 00:56:47,560 Speaker 2: suppose this goes to some way, shape or form into 1212 00:56:47,600 --> 00:56:50,360 Speaker 2: the polling. Last night, the numbers around the books that 1213 00:56:50,400 --> 00:56:53,719 Speaker 2: were opened late last week, and they're getting more money in. 1214 00:56:54,560 --> 00:56:57,480 Speaker 2: Nikola Willis called it sobering or not particularly good or 1215 00:56:57,520 --> 00:57:00,359 Speaker 2: whatever the phrase he used was. But they are getting 1216 00:57:00,400 --> 00:57:03,920 Speaker 2: more money in, but they're spending more money. So they're 1217 00:57:03,920 --> 00:57:06,040 Speaker 2: spending more money is on them. So for a government 1218 00:57:06,080 --> 00:57:08,879 Speaker 2: that was going to be frugal, and Damian Grant wrote 1219 00:57:08,880 --> 00:57:10,879 Speaker 2: a very good piece and stuff over the weekend, ending 1220 00:57:10,920 --> 00:57:13,480 Speaker 2: with the words, perhaps even a new captain if the 1221 00:57:13,560 --> 00:57:15,480 Speaker 2: current one isn't willing to make the hard course what 1222 00:57:15,560 --> 00:57:17,080 Speaker 2: he's suggesting, And he went through a whole lot of 1223 00:57:17,200 --> 00:57:20,320 Speaker 2: numbers in the economy going basically, they're spending more money 1224 00:57:20,360 --> 00:57:22,160 Speaker 2: than they're bringing and they know they're doing it. They 1225 00:57:22,200 --> 00:57:24,320 Speaker 2: said they wouldn't and so you're starting to get some 1226 00:57:24,400 --> 00:57:26,480 Speaker 2: credibility issues bubble to the surface. But more in a 1227 00:57:26,520 --> 00:57:27,400 Speaker 2: moment nine to eight. 1228 00:57:28,040 --> 00:57:32,640 Speaker 1: The costing breakfast with a Veta retirement, Communities news talks 1229 00:57:32,680 --> 00:57:32,960 Speaker 1: that'd be. 1230 00:57:33,120 --> 00:57:35,200 Speaker 2: He had a lot of reaction. So we find out 1231 00:57:35,240 --> 00:57:38,360 Speaker 2: the solicitor general is running the place. My vote's just evaporated. 1232 00:57:38,440 --> 00:57:40,160 Speaker 2: That's part of the problem. You've got to explain these things. 1233 00:57:40,200 --> 00:57:42,640 Speaker 2: So it's not I mean, obviously a politician knows this, 1234 00:57:42,760 --> 00:57:44,320 Speaker 2: but at the end of the day, how many voters 1235 00:57:44,360 --> 00:57:47,000 Speaker 2: knew that making a promise to, you know, derace the 1236 00:57:47,600 --> 00:57:50,320 Speaker 2: race based system, you were going to run into the 1237 00:57:50,360 --> 00:57:52,880 Speaker 2: sort of problems they're running into, and you've got technically 1238 00:57:52,960 --> 00:57:55,520 Speaker 2: an out. Anyway, back to the fast trak business, here's 1239 00:57:55,520 --> 00:57:57,840 Speaker 2: my concern. I'm all for fast track, and he's one 1240 00:57:57,880 --> 00:57:59,880 Speaker 2: hundred percent right when he sends things like we got 1241 00:57:59,920 --> 00:58:02,000 Speaker 2: to get this country moving, we've got to get things going, 1242 00:58:02,080 --> 00:58:03,760 Speaker 2: we've got to get people doing things, we've got to 1243 00:58:03,760 --> 00:58:05,280 Speaker 2: get money into the country. I agree with all of 1244 00:58:05,320 --> 00:58:08,800 Speaker 2: that one hundred percent. But TTR, which is transitasmin Resources, 1245 00:58:09,560 --> 00:58:13,240 Speaker 2: they want to extract fifty million tons of seabed every 1246 00:58:13,320 --> 00:58:15,760 Speaker 2: year for thirty years. And there's a debate within that 1247 00:58:15,920 --> 00:58:18,240 Speaker 2: with environmentalists and wind farming and all that sort of 1248 00:58:18,280 --> 00:58:21,160 Speaker 2: stuff as well. But ttr's owner, a company called Minuca Resources. 1249 00:58:21,840 --> 00:58:23,840 Speaker 2: In an announcement to the Australian share market back on 1250 00:58:23,880 --> 00:58:25,960 Speaker 2: the seventh of October, about a week ago, it is 1251 00:58:26,000 --> 00:58:29,320 Speaker 2: of national significance. We have identified a world class vanadium 1252 00:58:29,560 --> 00:58:32,840 Speaker 2: rich iron sand's resource that has the ability to contribute 1253 00:58:32,880 --> 00:58:36,720 Speaker 2: one billion dollars annually to exporting It's fantastic, brilliant, wahoo, 1254 00:58:36,800 --> 00:58:39,360 Speaker 2: let's get that in front of the expert panel. Two 1255 00:58:39,440 --> 00:58:42,000 Speaker 2: days after that, they're backtracked. They said that's we're not 1256 00:58:42,080 --> 00:58:42,840 Speaker 2: saying that anymore. 1257 00:58:43,400 --> 00:58:43,440 Speaker 7: So. 1258 00:58:44,160 --> 00:58:45,720 Speaker 2: How many of these people, and this has been the 1259 00:58:45,760 --> 00:58:49,680 Speaker 2: criticism for the government in fast tracking. On one hand, 1260 00:58:49,880 --> 00:58:51,800 Speaker 2: most of us I suspect are on board to the 1261 00:58:51,920 --> 00:58:54,600 Speaker 2: extent that we do need to get things going, But 1262 00:58:55,880 --> 00:58:59,360 Speaker 2: at what expense? How many conflicts of interest that's been 1263 00:58:59,400 --> 00:59:01,400 Speaker 2: a story in an of itself, and how many of 1264 00:59:01,480 --> 00:59:06,640 Speaker 2: these so called shortlisted companies may or may not end 1265 00:59:06,760 --> 00:59:09,720 Speaker 2: up delivering what they said they would do. And does 1266 00:59:09,800 --> 00:59:13,120 Speaker 2: this go to some degree back to the Provincial Growth 1267 00:59:13,160 --> 00:59:16,000 Speaker 2: Fund of a previous government in a different time, but 1268 00:59:16,080 --> 00:59:18,480 Speaker 2: an interestingly the same party with the same man called 1269 00:59:18,520 --> 00:59:21,680 Speaker 2: Shane Jones, who had three billion dollars wandering up and 1270 00:59:21,760 --> 00:59:24,760 Speaker 2: down the country making grandiose promises and new name me 1271 00:59:24,840 --> 00:59:26,760 Speaker 2: half a dozen things that have turned the economy around 1272 00:59:26,800 --> 00:59:28,880 Speaker 2: in this country. Out of that three billion dollars, how 1273 00:59:28,920 --> 00:59:34,640 Speaker 2: many Mariah got painted versus genuine projects that were undertaken 1274 00:59:34,760 --> 00:59:37,080 Speaker 2: and have transformed the New Zealand economy. And what they 1275 00:59:37,160 --> 00:59:41,080 Speaker 2: don't want reputationally speaking is the same problem that the 1276 00:59:41,200 --> 00:59:44,200 Speaker 2: last government had a lot of big announcements, a lot 1277 00:59:44,240 --> 00:59:46,360 Speaker 2: of money thrown all over the place, a lot of 1278 00:59:46,360 --> 00:59:49,520 Speaker 2: big promises and not many of them actually come to pass. 1279 00:59:49,720 --> 00:59:54,240 Speaker 2: That goes to credibility.

What's the Paddix impression 1302 01:00:53,960 --> 01:00:55,680 Speaker 2: of Liam and his possibilities? 1303 01:00:56,000 --> 01:00:58,040 Speaker 13: I love him, I really love him. 1304 01:00:58,200 --> 01:01:00,520 Speaker 14: I have been such a fan of for such a 1305 01:01:00,600 --> 01:01:03,920 Speaker 14: long time, all the way through junior Formula DTM, what 1306 01:01:04,040 --> 01:01:05,840 Speaker 14: he did when he made those couple of races in 1307 01:01:05,920 --> 01:01:08,520 Speaker 14: Formula one last season. He has impressed me in everything 1308 01:01:08,600 --> 01:01:10,760 Speaker 14: He's ever driven, everything I've ever seen of him. I 1309 01:01:10,840 --> 01:01:13,080 Speaker 14: thought it was absolutely criminal he was left on the 1310 01:01:13,160 --> 01:01:17,760 Speaker 14: sidelines this year. I just couldn't imagine a twenty twenty 1311 01:01:17,920 --> 01:01:19,920 Speaker 14: four Formula One season without him in it. 1312 01:01:20,040 --> 01:01:21,880 Speaker 13: And yet we more. 1313 01:01:21,800 --> 01:01:26,120 Speaker 14: Importantly, he has been forced to endure that. But I'm 1314 01:01:26,240 --> 01:01:28,680 Speaker 14: so glad for him and for us as fans of 1315 01:01:28,760 --> 01:01:30,160 Speaker 14: the sport that we get to see him in these 1316 01:01:30,200 --> 01:01:33,320 Speaker 14: final six races because I truly think he's and I'm 1317 01:01:33,320 --> 01:01:35,240 Speaker 14: not just saying this because I'm broadcasting with you guys 1318 01:01:35,280 --> 01:01:38,280 Speaker 14: in New Zealand. I truly think he's an exceptional talent. 1319 01:01:38,400 --> 01:01:40,960 Speaker 2: Good because the pressure's on him to so he's got 1320 01:01:40,960 --> 01:01:42,840 Speaker 2: the six races plus the three sprints of course, so 1321 01:01:42,880 --> 01:01:45,360 Speaker 2: the pressure is on him for next year. When you 1322 01:01:45,440 --> 01:01:47,439 Speaker 2: look at what's happened this season so far, with people 1323 01:01:47,520 --> 01:01:49,520 Speaker 2: like color Pinto into nearly next year, all of those 1324 01:01:50,280 --> 01:01:52,160 Speaker 2: we seem to be into a there's a whole new 1325 01:01:52,240 --> 01:01:53,680 Speaker 2: generation coming phase. 1326 01:01:54,120 --> 01:01:56,000 Speaker 14: Yeah, I love that, and I love it when we 1327 01:01:56,120 --> 01:02:00,680 Speaker 14: get those those moments, those movements of a generation nor shift. 1328 01:02:00,800 --> 01:02:03,040 Speaker 14: I mean, you see what the likes of I mean, 1329 01:02:03,080 --> 01:02:05,560 Speaker 14: we have it already with Max Verstappen and past three 1330 01:02:05,680 --> 01:02:10,080 Speaker 14: and that younger generation like Charles and Carlos, but this 1331 01:02:10,240 --> 01:02:13,800 Speaker 14: is like another new generation entirely, and even younger breed, 1332 01:02:14,040 --> 01:02:17,240 Speaker 14: you know, five, six, seven years younger than than those guys. 1333 01:02:17,360 --> 01:02:21,120 Speaker 14: It's it's always exciting to see the new guys coming through. 1334 01:02:21,240 --> 01:02:23,200 Speaker 14: And I really hope that Liam can put his stamp 1335 01:02:23,240 --> 01:02:26,040 Speaker 14: on these six races and assure himself a seat, maybe 1336 01:02:26,080 --> 01:02:28,400 Speaker 14: not even just with with the car R B whatever 1337 01:02:28,400 --> 01:02:31,080 Speaker 14: you want to call them, but you know that seat 1338 01:02:31,240 --> 01:02:33,880 Speaker 14: was an audition for Daniel to find his way back 1339 01:02:33,920 --> 01:02:36,040 Speaker 14: to the top team. So the fact that Liam is 1340 01:02:36,080 --> 01:02:39,360 Speaker 14: replacing Daniel means that this isn't just an audition for 1341 01:02:39,440 --> 01:02:41,680 Speaker 14: the Batam. This is an audition for the A team, 1342 01:02:41,960 --> 01:02:44,080 Speaker 14: and I really hope he shines. 1343 01:02:44,280 --> 01:02:46,880 Speaker 2: What's your sense and we're in a guess work here already, 1344 01:02:47,120 --> 01:02:49,240 Speaker 2: what's your sense of Pariz for the rest of the season. 1345 01:02:49,280 --> 01:02:51,760 Speaker 2: Does he stay for the season, If he does he 1346 01:02:51,880 --> 01:02:54,680 Speaker 2: stay beyond the season, and if he then leaves in 1347 01:02:54,800 --> 01:02:57,040 Speaker 2: some way, shape or form, that's Liam's opportunity in the 1348 01:02:57,080 --> 01:02:57,480 Speaker 2: big seat. 1349 01:02:57,760 --> 01:02:59,120 Speaker 14: I think a lot of this has to do with 1350 01:02:59,200 --> 01:03:04,560 Speaker 14: how Liam performed. You know, if Liam performs admirably but 1351 01:03:05,000 --> 01:03:08,120 Speaker 14: not exceptionally, but you know to a degree that makes 1352 01:03:08,200 --> 01:03:10,760 Speaker 14: him think, hey, there's you know, there's something here, then 1353 01:03:10,840 --> 01:03:14,000 Speaker 14: he'll probably get the VCARB seat for next year. If 1354 01:03:14,080 --> 01:03:18,720 Speaker 14: he outdoes all expectations, then there's every chance they slide 1355 01:03:18,760 --> 01:03:20,680 Speaker 14: him in at Red Bull next year and they promote 1356 01:03:20,720 --> 01:03:23,440 Speaker 14: Isaac Hadgchaff from Formula two into that VCARB seat for 1357 01:03:23,520 --> 01:03:25,600 Speaker 14: next year. So you know, this really is an audition 1358 01:03:25,800 --> 01:03:29,560 Speaker 14: that could have tremendous ramifications, you know, not just for 1359 01:03:29,680 --> 01:03:30,640 Speaker 14: his future. 1360 01:03:30,400 --> 01:03:32,600 Speaker 13: But for a number of seats in the paddock. 1361 01:03:33,200 --> 01:03:35,280 Speaker 2: Let's talk about you for a moment. Well, most people 1362 01:03:35,480 --> 01:03:37,480 Speaker 2: in this country will have seen you for the first 1363 01:03:37,560 --> 01:03:41,160 Speaker 2: time in Drive to Survive. When Drive to Survive came along, 1364 01:03:42,040 --> 01:03:43,680 Speaker 2: what hand on? How what did you think of it? 1365 01:03:43,800 --> 01:03:45,800 Speaker 2: Did you think this is the program that is going 1366 01:03:45,840 --> 01:03:47,600 Speaker 2: to transform Formula one. 1367 01:03:48,040 --> 01:03:49,520 Speaker 13: I had no idea what to expect. 1368 01:03:49,560 --> 01:03:51,480 Speaker 14: I don't think any of us did in that first season, 1369 01:03:51,560 --> 01:03:55,080 Speaker 14: because nobody had ever done anything like that in Formula 1370 01:03:55,160 --> 01:03:59,120 Speaker 14: one or attempted to do something so wide reaching, and 1371 01:03:59,280 --> 01:04:00,720 Speaker 14: so we'll just just went along. 1372 01:04:00,840 --> 01:04:02,880 Speaker 13: I wasn't even expecting to be in it. I was 1373 01:04:02,960 --> 01:04:05,520 Speaker 13: expecting to be the interviewer, not the interviewee. 1374 01:04:06,600 --> 01:04:09,120 Speaker 14: And so when they brought me in and started firing 1375 01:04:09,200 --> 01:04:11,120 Speaker 14: questions at me, I really didn't know where it was 1376 01:04:11,160 --> 01:04:12,800 Speaker 14: going to go. I didn't how much. I didn't know 1377 01:04:12,840 --> 01:04:14,800 Speaker 14: how much of what I said was going to be used. 1378 01:04:14,800 --> 01:04:17,440 Speaker 14: And it was only really when it hit the screens 1379 01:04:17,640 --> 01:04:20,440 Speaker 14: for everybody that first season that I saw it and 1380 01:04:20,560 --> 01:04:23,800 Speaker 14: I understood what it was and suddenly understood what it 1381 01:04:23,920 --> 01:04:28,080 Speaker 14: could be. And I think brutally so did the teams, 1382 01:04:28,440 --> 01:04:30,760 Speaker 14: because if you look back to that first season, Ferrari 1383 01:04:30,840 --> 01:04:34,280 Speaker 14: and Mercedes wanted nothing to do with it, and having 1384 01:04:34,320 --> 01:04:37,200 Speaker 14: seen that first season, they suddenly turned around and said, yes, 1385 01:04:37,280 --> 01:04:39,040 Speaker 14: we will make our teams, and we will make our drivers, 1386 01:04:39,080 --> 01:04:41,800 Speaker 14: we will make everybody open to you because they saw 1387 01:04:42,400 --> 01:04:43,840 Speaker 14: what this could be and what it was going to do. 1388 01:04:43,920 --> 01:04:47,120 Speaker 14: And what it's done is completely change the paradigm the 1389 01:04:47,160 --> 01:04:49,440 Speaker 14: understanding that we have of what a sports documentary can be. 1390 01:04:49,560 --> 01:04:51,840 Speaker 14: Because after that first season, people stopped saying, we need 1391 01:04:51,880 --> 01:04:54,240 Speaker 14: to make a sports documentary the buzzword became. 1392 01:04:54,200 --> 01:04:57,720 Speaker 13: We need a drive to survive, and that's what it's been. 1393 01:04:57,720 --> 01:04:59,120 Speaker 14: Throughout sport ever since then. 1394 01:04:59,160 --> 01:05:00,520 Speaker 13: It's completely the game. 1395 01:05:01,160 --> 01:05:04,480 Speaker 2: You signed to confidentiality as to what they're filming right 1396 01:05:04,600 --> 01:05:07,360 Speaker 2: now that will turn up in February March of next year. 1397 01:05:07,920 --> 01:05:09,480 Speaker 13: You don't know how many of us in about it. 1398 01:05:09,560 --> 01:05:10,400 Speaker 13: We were. 1399 01:05:12,160 --> 01:05:12,200 Speaker 7: No. 1400 01:05:12,600 --> 01:05:14,080 Speaker 13: You know, we have it on our past that you 1401 01:05:14,120 --> 01:05:17,600 Speaker 13: know we're there. We can be filmed by anybody, you know. 1402 01:05:18,960 --> 01:05:21,520 Speaker 14: But I will say that we have started looking to 1403 01:05:21,600 --> 01:05:24,840 Speaker 14: the sky more when we talk to people about things 1404 01:05:24,920 --> 01:05:26,640 Speaker 14: and secret things in the paddock, just to see if 1405 01:05:26,640 --> 01:05:28,040 Speaker 14: there's a boom mic hanging. 1406 01:05:27,800 --> 01:05:28,400 Speaker 13: Over your head. 1407 01:05:28,840 --> 01:05:33,080 Speaker 2: Fantastic this we also about you because I didn't know 1408 01:05:33,200 --> 01:05:35,400 Speaker 2: about you. I watched you, but I didn't know about you, 1409 01:05:35,520 --> 01:05:38,400 Speaker 2: and so I think he must come from racing, given 1410 01:05:38,440 --> 01:05:39,520 Speaker 2: your passion and knowledge. 1411 01:05:39,560 --> 01:05:40,120 Speaker 5: But you don't. 1412 01:05:40,520 --> 01:05:43,000 Speaker 2: You were correct me if I'm wrong, But you're you 1413 01:05:43,080 --> 01:05:45,880 Speaker 2: were singing an a choir or studying architecture or law 1414 01:05:46,000 --> 01:05:48,080 Speaker 2: or something like that. Next thing you know you're if one. 1415 01:05:48,480 --> 01:05:50,560 Speaker 14: Yeah, when I was very young, I was a chorister, 1416 01:05:50,760 --> 01:05:53,600 Speaker 14: very young in Sweden, Angelic. I always wanted to be 1417 01:05:53,640 --> 01:05:56,479 Speaker 14: a journalist, a Formula one journalist was all I wanted 1418 01:05:56,520 --> 01:05:58,200 Speaker 14: to be. From from the age of thirteen, I knew 1419 01:05:58,240 --> 01:06:01,200 Speaker 14: exactly what I wanted to do with my life. I 1420 01:06:01,320 --> 01:06:04,120 Speaker 14: studied politics at university because back in those days, media 1421 01:06:04,160 --> 01:06:07,919 Speaker 14: studies degrees weren't really seen as very serious. I'm looking 1422 01:06:07,960 --> 01:06:11,400 Speaker 14: back twenty five thirty years ago, so in politics to 1423 01:06:11,480 --> 01:06:15,680 Speaker 14: teach me to research, to form a cohesive argument, you. 1424 01:06:15,720 --> 01:06:18,080 Speaker 13: Know, really really sort of discover my voice. 1425 01:06:18,080 --> 01:06:20,160 Speaker 14: And I wrote my thesis on the politics of Formula one, 1426 01:06:20,200 --> 01:06:22,040 Speaker 14: which I sent to the guys at F one magazine 1427 01:06:22,720 --> 01:06:24,080 Speaker 14: and they liked it, and they said, you want a 1428 01:06:24,120 --> 01:06:27,000 Speaker 14: week's work experience. I went and I never left until 1429 01:06:27,040 --> 01:06:29,640 Speaker 14: the magazine closed down. And that was where I got 1430 01:06:29,680 --> 01:06:31,280 Speaker 14: my break.

But but but, but you 1490 01:09:03,439 --> 01:09:05,719 Speaker 2: cannot mention if One without those two names. 1491 01:09:05,800 --> 01:09:08,439 Speaker 14: No, you can't. And you know, I've tried to tell 1492 01:09:08,560 --> 01:09:11,479 Speaker 14: the story of the sport through the world champions of 1493 01:09:11,640 --> 01:09:14,880 Speaker 14: each decade and the great teams of each decade. But 1494 01:09:15,000 --> 01:09:17,839 Speaker 14: I wanted to make space for drivers who weren't champions 1495 01:09:17,960 --> 01:09:20,040 Speaker 14: that also had an impact on the sport. And Bruce, 1496 01:09:20,160 --> 01:09:24,639 Speaker 14: of course you cannot. You cannot talk about the story 1497 01:09:25,080 --> 01:09:29,480 Speaker 14: of the sport without talking about Bruce McLaren. The incredible 1498 01:09:29,520 --> 01:09:32,479 Speaker 14: impact that he's had, that his team continues to have 1499 01:09:32,760 --> 01:09:36,559 Speaker 14: in the sport. It is, it is something incredibly rare. 1500 01:09:36,680 --> 01:09:39,960 Speaker 14: It is something I think really beautiful. And seeing what 1501 01:09:40,040 --> 01:09:44,200 Speaker 14: McLaren are doing this year is his testament to him, 1502 01:09:44,320 --> 01:09:44,600 Speaker 14: to his. 1503 01:09:46,120 --> 01:09:46,759 Speaker 13: His legacy. 1504 01:09:46,880 --> 01:09:49,560 Speaker 14: You know, everything that he that he that he represented 1505 01:09:50,479 --> 01:09:53,360 Speaker 14: as he said, you know, success is not is not 1506 01:09:53,479 --> 01:09:54,519 Speaker 14: gone out in years alone. 1507 01:09:55,120 --> 01:09:57,960 Speaker 2: Do you like if One as much as you always have? 1508 01:09:58,560 --> 01:10:00,800 Speaker 2: And the reason I asked that if if I look 1509 01:10:00,840 --> 01:10:04,599 Speaker 2: at Frank Williams and the Frank Williams era and those 1510 01:10:04,680 --> 01:10:07,400 Speaker 2: guys who just sort of greased up in a shed 1511 01:10:07,920 --> 01:10:10,599 Speaker 2: and put a car together and it crashed, it blew up, 1512 01:10:11,240 --> 01:10:15,000 Speaker 2: versus what you deal with now, which is corporate, It's 1513 01:10:15,080 --> 01:10:16,200 Speaker 2: a different world, isn't it. 1514 01:10:16,560 --> 01:10:23,720 Speaker 13: It is a different world. But the skill set, the dedication, the. 1515 01:10:26,320 --> 01:10:30,160 Speaker 14: Incredible respect that I have for the drivers in what 1516 01:10:30,360 --> 01:10:35,200 Speaker 14: they do in this incredible thing that all of us 1517 01:10:35,280 --> 01:10:37,360 Speaker 14: in our dreams which we could be able to do, 1518 01:10:37,600 --> 01:10:40,120 Speaker 14: to dance with a car like that, to take it 1519 01:10:40,200 --> 01:10:43,680 Speaker 14: to the absolute edge of indiesion and hold it there. 1520 01:10:44,880 --> 01:10:48,360 Speaker 14: The great designers, the great mechanics, the great engineers. You know, 1521 01:10:48,439 --> 01:10:51,400 Speaker 14: this is a sport that is filled with incredible minds 1522 01:10:51,439 --> 01:10:54,519 Speaker 14: and incredibly talented people. That hasn't changed from nineteen fifty 1523 01:10:54,600 --> 01:10:57,280 Speaker 14: three to twenty twenty four to twenty twenty five. It's 1524 01:10:57,360 --> 01:11:01,160 Speaker 14: the same mixture of man and machine and and everybody 1525 01:11:01,240 --> 01:11:03,000 Speaker 14: pushing to the to the absolute limit. 1526 01:11:03,160 --> 01:11:05,559 Speaker 13: So yeah, you know, look, it's not it's. 1527 01:11:05,439 --> 01:11:08,680 Speaker 14: Not grease monkeys working in garages anymore, or putting the 1528 01:11:08,760 --> 01:11:09,920 Speaker 14: cars together in a field. 1529 01:11:10,080 --> 01:11:13,920 Speaker 13: It is it's big bucks and it is a big. 1530 01:11:13,840 --> 01:11:16,559 Speaker 14: Industry, and and you know, some people might say that's 1531 01:11:16,600 --> 01:11:18,600 Speaker 14: a bit a bit cold compared to how it was 1532 01:11:18,680 --> 01:11:22,120 Speaker 14: in the old days, But those same skills make the 1533 01:11:22,160 --> 01:11:24,519 Speaker 14: difference today just as they just as they always have, 1534 01:11:24,720 --> 01:11:28,640 Speaker 14: and seeing a great driver at the limit that is 1535 01:11:29,000 --> 01:11:30,559 Speaker 14: as true to day as it was back then. 1536 01:11:30,800 --> 01:11:34,080 Speaker 2: Right, Oh, pressure time for you your call? Who wins 1537 01:11:34,160 --> 01:11:36,360 Speaker 2: the constructors? Who wins the drivers? 1538 01:11:36,720 --> 01:11:39,240 Speaker 14: McLaren win the constructors, and at the current rate, I 1539 01:11:39,240 --> 01:11:40,120 Speaker 14: think Ferrari might. 1540 01:11:40,000 --> 01:11:40,799 Speaker 13: Even finish second. 1541 01:11:41,120 --> 01:11:43,439 Speaker 14: And for the drivers, I think it's going to be 1542 01:11:43,520 --> 01:11:45,320 Speaker 14: nip and tuck. I've been saying for a long time. 1543 01:11:45,400 --> 01:11:47,600 Speaker 14: I think Lendo has the opportunity to take it. But 1544 01:11:47,680 --> 01:11:50,600 Speaker 14: I honestly think McLaren woke up far too late and 1545 01:11:50,760 --> 01:11:52,519 Speaker 14: later than most of their rivals to the fact that 1546 01:11:52,600 --> 01:11:54,200 Speaker 14: they had the fastest car and the sport. 1547 01:11:54,320 --> 01:11:55,640 Speaker 13: The difficulty that they have. 1548 01:11:55,880 --> 01:11:58,720 Speaker 14: Is that Oscar Piastre is coming on very fast, and 1549 01:11:59,200 --> 01:12:01,880 Speaker 14: in not wanting to that Oscar and his ascent to 1550 01:12:01,960 --> 01:12:06,639 Speaker 14: the top, they may just have inadvertently gifted the crowd 1551 01:12:06,720 --> 01:12:09,800 Speaker 14: back to Maxistaff and Islando loses by less than ten points, 1552 01:12:09,840 --> 01:12:12,400 Speaker 14: as I think will be incredibly likely if he does 1553 01:12:12,479 --> 01:12:14,679 Speaker 14: lose this championship, it could come down to single figures. 1554 01:12:15,240 --> 01:12:17,759 Speaker 13: McLaren will kick themselves. How much will. 1555 01:12:17,720 --> 01:12:21,360 Speaker 14: Lando pick McLaren if if that, if that comes to pass. 1556 01:12:21,400 --> 01:12:23,040 Speaker 14: But I think we've got an amazing six races. 1557 01:12:23,080 --> 01:12:23,280 Speaker 13: Listen. 1558 01:12:23,320 --> 01:12:25,519 Speaker 14: Half of these six remaining races are sprint racist and 1559 01:12:25,520 --> 01:12:27,840 Speaker 14: there's more points available in those rounds. 1560 01:12:28,479 --> 01:12:29,160 Speaker 13: It's doable. 1561 01:12:29,360 --> 01:12:32,240 Speaker 14: It's never been done before. But that's not to mean 1562 01:12:32,520 --> 01:12:35,040 Speaker 14: it can't happen. And I am an eternal optimist that 1563 01:12:35,040 --> 01:12:36,720 Speaker 14: we've got a championship fight. And if it goes down 1564 01:12:36,720 --> 01:12:38,320 Speaker 14: to Abu Dab, I say, bring it on. It's going 1565 01:12:38,360 --> 01:12:39,000 Speaker 14: to be great fun. 1566 01:12:39,080 --> 01:12:41,519 Speaker 2: It's going to be fantastic.

Then we'll go to the UK, where 1611 01:14:46,000 --> 01:14:47,960 Speaker 2: Kia has been desperately trying out a night in front 1612 01:14:47,960 --> 01:14:50,280 Speaker 2: of an investment conference to convince the wider world that 1613 01:14:50,600 --> 01:14:53,120 Speaker 2: the upcoming budget is the answer to all problems and 1614 01:14:53,280 --> 01:14:55,479 Speaker 2: that he's got the economy well and truly under control. 1615 01:14:55,720 --> 01:15:01,519 Speaker 1: Rod is next, your trusted source, The News and fused 1616 01:15:02,080 --> 01:15:06,080 Speaker 1: the Mic Hosking breakfast with Bailey's real estate, your local 1617 01:15:06,160 --> 01:15:09,120 Speaker 1: experts across residential, commercial, and rural news. 1618 01:15:09,200 --> 01:15:12,240 Speaker 2: Togs Head be right. So the real clear politics average. 1619 01:15:12,280 --> 01:15:15,400 Speaker 2: This is the US race. Seven key states, Arizona, Georgia, 1620 01:15:15,479 --> 01:15:21,480 Speaker 2: North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Nevada, Michigan, Wisconsin. Harris is up in Wisconsin, 1621 01:15:22,640 --> 01:15:26,240 Speaker 2: she has forty eight point three. Trump has forty eight. So, 1622 01:15:26,360 --> 01:15:29,040 Speaker 2: in other words, it's so far within the margin of 1623 01:15:29,080 --> 01:15:31,760 Speaker 2: era it counts for nothing. Either of them could be 1624 01:15:31,800 --> 01:15:34,400 Speaker 2: winning or it could be a dead heat. Michigan. All 1625 01:15:34,479 --> 01:15:37,760 Speaker 2: these following states, Trump's up, and Michigan he's up forty 1626 01:15:37,800 --> 01:15:40,000 Speaker 2: eight point five to forty seven point six. Once again, 1627 01:15:40,080 --> 01:15:43,560 Speaker 2: so within the margin of era. It's embarrassing. Nevada you 1628 01:15:43,640 --> 01:15:48,120 Speaker 2: want close. Trump forty eight point two, Harris forty eight. 1629 01:15:49,160 --> 01:15:53,720 Speaker 2: Pennsylvania you want even closer. Trump forty eight point two, 1630 01:15:54,520 --> 01:15:58,960 Speaker 2: Harris forty eight point one. North Carolina forty eight points seven, 1631 01:15:59,040 --> 01:16:02,400 Speaker 2: forty eight point two, Georgia forty eight point three, forty 1632 01:16:02,439 --> 01:16:05,280 Speaker 2: seven point eight, Arizona forty eight point four to forty 1633 01:16:05,280 --> 01:16:08,840 Speaker 2: seven point four. It's forty seven forty eight. It's within 1634 01:16:08,880 --> 01:16:10,519 Speaker 2: a point. It's a tenth of a point. It's two 1635 01:16:10,600 --> 01:16:13,559 Speaker 2: tenths of a point. Pick a winner, you can't. Twenty 1636 01:16:13,600 --> 01:16:13,840 Speaker 2: two to. 1637 01:16:13,960 --> 01:16:19,040 Speaker 17: Nine International correspondence with Insitneye Insurance, Peace of Mind for 1638 01:16:19,120 --> 01:16:20,080 Speaker 17: New Zealand Business and. 1639 01:16:20,280 --> 01:16:21,960 Speaker 2: Britt We go roll this morning, Mane. 1640 01:16:21,960 --> 01:16:24,559 Speaker 11: How are you, good morning? How are you, mabe? 1641 01:16:24,560 --> 01:16:26,120 Speaker 2: I'm very well. Indeed I'm reading a bit about the 1642 01:16:26,120 --> 01:16:29,040 Speaker 2: British economy at the moment, and mortgage rates allegedly are 1643 01:16:29,080 --> 01:16:31,200 Speaker 2: going to start to go up again. A lot of 1644 01:16:31,240 --> 01:16:34,080 Speaker 2: people have paused hiring because they want some clarity around 1645 01:16:34,080 --> 01:16:38,320 Speaker 2: the budget, how much weight tension and angst is around 1646 01:16:38,360 --> 01:16:39,160 Speaker 2: the budget. 1647 01:16:40,600 --> 01:16:46,200 Speaker 11: An awful lot, largely over largely amongst the business community, 1648 01:16:46,920 --> 01:16:50,800 Speaker 11: about for example, how much employers will be asked to 1649 01:16:50,960 --> 01:16:55,960 Speaker 11: stump up in additional costs for National insurance. But also 1650 01:16:56,200 --> 01:16:58,360 Speaker 11: a whole bunch of stuff which has gone before now, 1651 01:16:59,400 --> 01:17:04,640 Speaker 11: which is, you know, restricting the way in which companies 1652 01:17:04,720 --> 01:17:08,160 Speaker 11: can deal with people with the staff that they take on. 1653 01:17:08,960 --> 01:17:12,920 Speaker 11: And this was the kind of focus of this international 1654 01:17:13,000 --> 01:17:20,280 Speaker 11: Investment a forum which Kiers starmalaud today with all the verve, 1655 01:17:21,240 --> 01:17:26,200 Speaker 11: the kind of a robot working on batteries which are 1656 01:17:26,240 --> 01:17:30,000 Speaker 11: not the current level of batteries. I think the best way. 1657 01:17:30,240 --> 01:17:35,400 Speaker 11: But uh, and so many of these companies. There are 1658 01:17:35,439 --> 01:17:39,280 Speaker 11: two things he's offering. One one, along with David Lammy, 1659 01:17:39,360 --> 01:17:43,040 Speaker 11: he is suggesting that we can start renegotiating a few 1660 01:17:43,040 --> 01:17:48,080 Speaker 11: of those Brexit deals which were so difficult for overseas 1661 01:17:48,120 --> 01:17:52,800 Speaker 11: investors to deal with, but which would if they were renegotiated, 1662 01:17:52,960 --> 01:17:56,040 Speaker 11: cause an outrage in this country as being you know, 1663 01:17:57,280 --> 01:18:01,200 Speaker 11: an application of what was a democratic vote. And the 1664 01:18:01,320 --> 01:18:05,360 Speaker 11: second thing which you have to deal with was that 1665 01:18:05,880 --> 01:18:09,160 Speaker 11: you are asking us to invest in your country when 1666 01:18:09,240 --> 01:18:12,640 Speaker 11: you have just made it absolutely clear that you're going 1667 01:18:12,720 --> 01:18:18,879 Speaker 11: to make more bureaucratic, more difficult the job of companies 1668 01:18:18,960 --> 01:18:22,360 Speaker 11: to take on people. So that is a real problem. 1669 01:18:22,840 --> 01:18:26,439 Speaker 11: He's going to kind of try to square that circle. 1670 01:18:27,280 --> 01:18:30,479 Speaker 11: And whilst some of those ideas about you know, what 1671 01:18:30,920 --> 01:18:35,679 Speaker 11: you do with new workers and what rights they should 1672 01:18:35,760 --> 01:18:39,360 Speaker 11: have and so on seem to be reasonable enough, they've 1673 01:18:39,439 --> 01:18:44,160 Speaker 11: nonetheless outraged the business community community over here, and that 1674 01:18:44,280 --> 01:18:47,439 Speaker 11: has made its way to business communities further afield as well. 1675 01:18:47,560 --> 01:18:47,720 Speaker 10: Yeah. 1676 01:18:47,800 --> 01:18:49,400 Speaker 2: See, I can't work this out. On one hand, he 1677 01:18:49,439 --> 01:18:51,360 Speaker 2: wants money to flow into the country and he's going 1678 01:18:51,439 --> 01:18:53,080 Speaker 2: to you know, get the country moving and all that 1679 01:18:53,120 --> 01:18:54,879 Speaker 2: sort of stuff, and then on the weekend he announces 1680 01:18:54,960 --> 01:18:57,000 Speaker 2: new workers. Right, So I'm reading out on the program 1681 01:18:57,120 --> 01:18:59,920 Speaker 2: yesterday that the train workers, who I didn't realize, work 1682 01:19:00,120 --> 01:19:02,080 Speaker 2: standard four day week, but if they got for bid 1683 01:19:02,160 --> 01:19:04,320 Speaker 2: work a five day week. There's another three hundred quid 1684 01:19:04,360 --> 01:19:06,280 Speaker 2: in that that's on the time and a half on 1685 01:19:06,479 --> 01:19:08,680 Speaker 2: Saturday they turn up on the Saturday, plus the nine 1686 01:19:08,720 --> 01:19:10,960 Speaker 2: and a half percent pay rise they got. You can 1687 01:19:11,200 --> 01:19:12,240 Speaker 2: hear it both ways. 1688 01:19:13,400 --> 01:19:15,760 Speaker 11: You can't have it both ways, and I don't think 1689 01:19:15,840 --> 01:19:19,840 Speaker 11: there's any any possibility of the labor government understanding this 1690 01:19:19,960 --> 01:19:22,680 Speaker 11: at the moment, because they are trying to have it 1691 01:19:22,760 --> 01:19:26,400 Speaker 11: both ways, and sooner or later push will come to 1692 01:19:26,479 --> 01:19:30,759 Speaker 11: shave and they will be shown up for either caving 1693 01:19:30,840 --> 01:19:35,280 Speaker 11: into the unions their client groups on whatever issue comes 1694 01:19:35,360 --> 01:19:39,720 Speaker 11: before them. So, for example, the young doctors, or rather 1695 01:19:39,840 --> 01:19:42,559 Speaker 11: the doctors as we should call them properly, and also 1696 01:19:42,640 --> 01:19:46,080 Speaker 11: the train workers. You know, these people have got Those 1697 01:19:46,120 --> 01:19:48,600 Speaker 11: people have soaked up the money which would otherwise have 1698 01:19:48,680 --> 01:19:51,519 Speaker 11: gone to the pensioners for their winter fuel announcements. It 1699 01:19:51,640 --> 01:19:55,720 Speaker 11: really is as simple as that. And you cannot then 1700 01:19:55,840 --> 01:20:00,520 Speaker 11: convince industry to invest in a country which is determined 1701 01:20:00,560 --> 01:20:04,400 Speaker 11: to go down the French route of empowering employees to 1702 01:20:04,479 --> 01:20:09,720 Speaker 11: a degree which you might argue is beyond the necessary. 1703 01:20:10,400 --> 01:20:12,679 Speaker 11: You know that that's the problem. 1704 01:20:13,360 --> 01:20:15,880 Speaker 2: Let's take me down memory lane. I've completely forgotten about 1705 01:20:15,920 --> 01:20:20,160 Speaker 2: this Scruple Salisbury, Nivochok and the inquiry where are we at? 1706 01:20:22,160 --> 01:20:27,000 Speaker 11: Where we're at is that a woman who was accidentally 1707 01:20:27,120 --> 01:20:31,439 Speaker 11: poisoned by the Russians, a woman called Dawn Sturgis. The 1708 01:20:31,520 --> 01:20:37,719 Speaker 11: Russians assassinated or tried to assassinate both Skurple and his daughter. 1709 01:20:38,200 --> 01:20:43,160 Speaker 11: A Skuple was a former Russian secret services guy, and 1710 01:20:43,280 --> 01:20:45,320 Speaker 11: they've tried to do so with koby shock is, a 1711 01:20:45,800 --> 01:20:51,200 Speaker 11: which is a nerve gas, though not by the looks 1712 01:20:51,240 --> 01:20:55,760 Speaker 11: of things, a hugely effective nerve gas. They've failed with 1713 01:20:56,560 --> 01:21:00,680 Speaker 11: both the Scirples, but one of the one of the 1714 01:21:00,880 --> 01:21:03,439 Speaker 11: bottles which carried this stuff was thrown in a skip. 1715 01:21:05,000 --> 01:21:08,519 Speaker 11: Dawn Sturgis's boyfriend picked it up, gave it to Dawn 1716 01:21:08,560 --> 01:21:12,479 Speaker 11: Sturgis as a gift, a gift which later proved to 1717 01:21:12,560 --> 01:21:17,519 Speaker 11: be not entirely felicitous, and it killed her because it 1718 01:21:17,640 --> 01:21:20,160 Speaker 11: had not a choco in it rather than now number five. 1719 01:21:21,160 --> 01:21:24,479 Speaker 11: It looked like a perfume. It looked like a perfume character. 1720 01:21:25,920 --> 01:21:29,599 Speaker 11: The problem is, the real problem is that we were 1721 01:21:29,680 --> 01:21:36,080 Speaker 11: in a state of denial when all this happened. We 1722 01:21:36,720 --> 01:21:42,519 Speaker 11: refused to believe that Putin would be so outrageous as 1723 01:21:42,640 --> 01:21:47,360 Speaker 11: to attempt at an attack on the life of someone 1724 01:21:47,439 --> 01:21:52,320 Speaker 11: who was living privately in Great Britain. And yet that 1725 01:21:52,520 --> 01:21:55,200 Speaker 11: was obviously the case, just as it was was the 1726 01:21:55,280 --> 01:21:59,839 Speaker 11: case of Livinenko, who was also killed by the Russians. 1727 01:22:00,240 --> 01:22:02,680 Speaker 11: And so this has all opened up a new can 1728 01:22:02,800 --> 01:22:05,960 Speaker 11: of worms. And one of the things which people will 1729 01:22:06,000 --> 01:22:10,400 Speaker 11: be talking about is a degree to which the British 1730 01:22:10,560 --> 01:22:15,760 Speaker 11: government did not sufficiently support Scruple during this time and 1731 01:22:16,120 --> 01:22:22,479 Speaker 11: allowed him to be at the mercy of the Russian spies. 1732 01:22:23,560 --> 01:22:28,360 Speaker 11: This was all only six years ago and it's a real, 1733 01:22:28,720 --> 01:22:31,920 Speaker 11: real issue, and it will ratching up the tension again 1734 01:22:32,360 --> 01:22:34,200 Speaker 11: between London and Moscow. 1735 01:22:34,120 --> 01:22:37,760 Speaker 2: Exactly just quickly. Rob Alex Salmon sixty nine, far too young, 1736 01:22:37,840 --> 01:22:40,880 Speaker 2: giving a speech he keels Ivories did, Yeah, where does he? 1737 01:22:40,960 --> 01:22:43,440 Speaker 2: Certainly animals of Scottish political history. 1738 01:22:45,200 --> 01:22:50,040 Speaker 11: Huge, absolutely huge, and way way more than the protege 1739 01:22:50,520 --> 01:22:54,120 Speaker 11: who later turned on him, Nicholas Sturgeon. He is the 1740 01:22:54,200 --> 01:22:57,320 Speaker 11: man who kind of coalesced around him this idea that 1741 01:22:57,439 --> 01:23:00,840 Speaker 11: you could have an independent Scotland which would fight his 1742 01:23:01,000 --> 01:23:02,760 Speaker 11: own way, and there's no doubt that he would be 1743 01:23:02,800 --> 01:23:07,040 Speaker 11: able to do that, and that which was actually actively 1744 01:23:07,160 --> 01:23:12,320 Speaker 11: harmed by an association with Westminster. He later formed his 1745 01:23:12,439 --> 01:23:16,599 Speaker 11: own party ALBA. While he has been kind of rather 1746 01:23:16,840 --> 01:23:20,280 Speaker 11: briskly pushed out of the party after some Jerry Mander 1747 01:23:20,439 --> 01:23:25,760 Speaker 11: charges of impropriety, he was a good man in many 1748 01:23:25,840 --> 01:23:30,160 Speaker 11: many ways, a cunning and shrewd political operator and I 1749 01:23:30,280 --> 01:23:33,200 Speaker 11: think the Scottish National movement will miss him. 1750 01:23:33,160 --> 01:23:35,360 Speaker 2: Greatly well, so Mike will ketch up in a couple 1751 01:23:35,360 --> 01:23:36,760 Speaker 2: of dies. Appreciate it right, A little out of the 1752 01:23:36,880 --> 01:23:38,240 Speaker 2: UK eight forty five. 1753 01:23:38,160 --> 01:23:43,560 Speaker 1: Already the Mic Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio, 1754 01:23:43,840 --> 01:23:46,160 Speaker 1: powered by News Talks at be Mike. 1755 01:23:46,240 --> 01:23:48,280 Speaker 2: As we know, the poll's under count Trump every time. 1756 01:23:48,960 --> 01:23:51,840 Speaker 2: How about Carmeler's book Plagiarism Story. Let me come back 1757 01:23:51,840 --> 01:23:53,400 Speaker 2: to the polling in America and just a mind. It's 1758 01:23:53,400 --> 01:23:54,800 Speaker 2: a very good piece read the other day, but the 1759 01:23:54,840 --> 01:23:56,479 Speaker 2: other poller told you about this morning. This is a 1760 01:23:56,560 --> 01:23:58,720 Speaker 2: locally one and this is why I likely produced one. 1761 01:23:58,760 --> 01:24:03,040 Speaker 2: This is why you've got to be seriously suspicious of 1762 01:24:03,080 --> 01:24:06,920 Speaker 2: what we're dealing with. This one was done by who 1763 01:24:07,040 --> 01:24:09,479 Speaker 2: was it was a courier, I think it was anyway, 1764 01:24:10,000 --> 01:24:15,839 Speaker 2: Forty eight percent of US favor publicly owned rail enabled 1765 01:24:16,080 --> 01:24:18,719 Speaker 2: fairies forty eight percent of US, so that's big support 1766 01:24:18,760 --> 01:24:22,200 Speaker 2: for the state to own the rail slash ferry company 1767 01:24:22,320 --> 01:24:24,920 Speaker 2: and for those fairies, those new fairies, to be rail enabled. 1768 01:24:25,000 --> 01:24:26,719 Speaker 2: Now why would they do a poll on this, because 1769 01:24:26,720 --> 01:24:28,759 Speaker 2: of course the government hasn't made up their mind allegedly 1770 01:24:29,120 --> 01:24:31,240 Speaker 2: as to what they're going to do. Every indication appears 1771 01:24:31,280 --> 01:24:33,200 Speaker 2: to be that they don't want to be rail enabled 1772 01:24:33,200 --> 01:24:35,960 Speaker 2: because they've become more expensive. New Zealand First want them 1773 01:24:36,040 --> 01:24:39,000 Speaker 2: rail enabled because they like rail, but National don't because 1774 01:24:39,000 --> 01:24:43,040 Speaker 2: they don't have any money. Ten percent of US supported 1775 01:24:43,080 --> 01:24:45,680 Speaker 2: publicly owned fairies that were not rail enabled, So in 1776 01:24:45,720 --> 01:24:47,720 Speaker 2: other words, National's got ten percent of US behind them. 1777 01:24:47,840 --> 01:24:49,800 Speaker 2: New Zealand First has got forty eight percent behind us. 1778 01:24:49,800 --> 01:24:53,960 Speaker 2: Fifteen percent supported partially privatized ferries. So it's getting complicated 1779 01:24:54,640 --> 01:24:57,040 Speaker 2: that are not rail enabled. And twenty six percent of 1780 01:24:57,080 --> 01:24:59,680 Speaker 2: those polled weren't sure. And I can't blame you to 1781 01:24:59,720 --> 01:25:04,280 Speaker 2: be perfectly frank ah it included, by the way in 1782 01:25:04,400 --> 01:25:08,800 Speaker 2: the poll an explanation of the extra cost of replacement 1783 01:25:08,920 --> 01:25:11,640 Speaker 2: fairies were they to be rail enabled. Now how they 1784 01:25:11,720 --> 01:25:14,640 Speaker 2: came to that particular explanation I don't know, but they 1785 01:25:14,720 --> 01:25:17,360 Speaker 2: claimed the efficiency gains of being rail enabled is thought 1786 01:25:17,400 --> 01:25:19,320 Speaker 2: to add about ten to twenty percent to the overall 1787 01:25:19,400 --> 01:25:21,600 Speaker 2: cost of the Firio's infrastructure. Now, there are plenty of 1788 01:25:21,640 --> 01:25:23,360 Speaker 2: people who would disagree with that, because, of course the 1789 01:25:23,400 --> 01:25:26,240 Speaker 2: whole bill blew out to three point four billion from 1790 01:25:26,360 --> 01:25:28,120 Speaker 2: a handful of hundreds of millions, and most of that 1791 01:25:28,280 --> 01:25:30,880 Speaker 2: was about building new infrastructure on the land. Anyway, who 1792 01:25:30,920 --> 01:25:34,320 Speaker 2: put this pole down? The Maritime Union of New Zealand, 1793 01:25:36,240 --> 01:25:38,080 Speaker 2: I still believe it.
