Chris Bishop and his Auckland housing 7 00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:21,520 Speaker 3: balls up the Trade Minister? And where the labour of 8 00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:23,960 Speaker 3: playing games over the India deal? Mark and Jinny after 9 00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:27,600 Speaker 3: right Richard Ardel Steve Price there in the mix as well, Pasky, 10 00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:29,800 Speaker 3: Welcome to the day. It is seven past six. Now 11 00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:32,280 Speaker 3: the Auckland housing number, the government's housing vision now looks 12 00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:35,440 Speaker 3: like a school project basically gone wrong. Chris Bishop, by 13 00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:38,920 Speaker 3: anyone's standards, a competent, if not excellent, political operator, appears 14 00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:41,320 Speaker 3: to have come unstuck on Auckland housing as two million 15 00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:44,120 Speaker 3: homes got the sort of reaction anyone with anything to 16 00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:46,479 Speaker 3: do with Auckland might have expected. So after a lot 17 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:49,440 Speaker 3: of nashing and expletives, that got readjusted to one point six, 18 00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:51,320 Speaker 3: and now if you can believe it, it's down to 19 00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:54,440 Speaker 3: one point four. The real issue, of course, is the number, 20 00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:57,160 Speaker 3: and all numbers are huge, so they freak people out. 21 00:00:57,600 --> 00:00:59,880 Speaker 3: Not helping is the fact Bishop is not from Auckland, 22 00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:02,520 Speaker 3: from the Hut, which doesn't mean he can't make decisions 23 00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:04,760 Speaker 3: on Auckland. It just means he doesn't seem to know 24 00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:07,920 Speaker 3: what roch Rex Auckland is up, and the obvious suggestion 25 00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:11,080 Speaker 3: has made that maybe that's because he's from Wellington. Making 26 00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:13,840 Speaker 3: it worse is the government has a Minister for Auckland, 27 00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:15,720 Speaker 3: but he seems to be nowhere to be seen, and 28 00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:18,479 Speaker 3: one wonders whether he was in bishops Here at any point, 29 00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:22,000 Speaker 3: suggesting bandying around large numbers and causing confusion about high 30 00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:25,280 Speaker 3: rises and suburbia wasn't the smartest thing he could have done. 31 00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:27,960 Speaker 3: Not helpful either for the government given its election year. 32 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,319 Speaker 3: Of course, like it or not, elections are won and 33 00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:33,400 Speaker 3: lost in the country's biggest city and economic engine room. 34 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:37,360 Speaker 3: Also about to Land is a report on volcanic view shafts, 35 00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:40,480 Speaker 3: another of Auckland's special features. Bishop doesn't seem to get. 36 00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 3: We can delve into it another day, but in assigned 37 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 3: Bishop is all about bottom lines and not the real world. 38 00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 3: The report suggests there is four billion dollars worth of 39 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:52,600 Speaker 3: lost productivity because of these view shafts, which averages out 40 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:54,560 Speaker 3: to two and a half thousand dollars a house. The 41 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:57,560 Speaker 3: inference being if we just got on and built stuff, 42 00:01:57,600 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 3: even if they are high rises smack bang in the 43 00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:02,320 Speaker 3: mid your rang a toto view, we would be off 44 00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 3: to the races economically. I can tell Chris even before 45 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,440 Speaker 3: the reporters released this will go down worse than the 46 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 3: original two million homes idea. In really simple terms, if 47 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 3: the National Party and Buy default the government want to 48 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 3: piss a large number of Aucklanders off, let Bishop loose 49 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:20,560 Speaker 3: on the place and we'll catch up for a drink 50 00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:21,960 Speaker 3: at the opposition benches. 51 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 2: Who news of the world in ninety seconds. 52 00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 3: For a bloke who claims he's winning and doesn't need 53 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:31,240 Speaker 3: anyone anyone's help, he's doing a lot of whining. 54 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 2: I have a suggestion for you. 55 00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:36,800 Speaker 4: Number one, buy from the US we have plenty and 56 00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 4: number two build up some delayed courage, go to the 57 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,519 Speaker 4: street and just take it. You'll have to start learning 58 00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:44,840 Speaker 4: how to fight for yourself. 59 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 3: That was him on truth Social Despite what looks like 60 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 3: a fairy significant falling out between the US and the UK. 61 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:51,920 Speaker 3: Of course it's being confirmed overnight, and it was not 62 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:54,440 Speaker 3: always a sure thing. I can tell you that the 63 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:56,360 Speaker 3: King's visit to Washington is on. 64 00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:59,280 Speaker 5: He will go in late April. That will have all 65 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:01,960 Speaker 5: the pump and so many the banqueting, the gods of honor, 66 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 5: and it will be really kind of returning if you 67 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 5: like the hospitality that Donald Trump had when he came 68 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 5: to the UK. 69 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 3: Meantime, back of the well known market tried to Pete 70 00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 3: Higgsith's Ministry of War. He's doing what he does so well. 71 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:19,080 Speaker 6: If Iran is wise, they'll cut a deal. President Trump 72 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:21,800 Speaker 6: doesn't bluff and he does not back down. President Trump 73 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:22,520 Speaker 6: will make a deal. 74 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:23,120 Speaker 7: He is willing. 75 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:25,960 Speaker 6: If Iran is not willing, then the United States War 76 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 6: Department will continue with even more intensity. 77 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:32,480 Speaker 3: There is, not surprisingly, a growing line of people that 78 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:35,839 Speaker 3: don't actually believe a lot of the increasingly exasperated hot here. 79 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 8: Oh, I think he's flat out lying. 80 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 9: You know, oil price is now one hundred and twelve 81 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 9: dollars a barrel, and you know futures when in the 82 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 9: stock market down two percent last Sunday, he realized, oh 83 00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 9: my god, I've got a financial cataclysm on Monday. So 84 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 9: he just made it up that they're in negotiations with 85 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 9: the Iranians. 86 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,440 Speaker 3: Well, Pete put down is down. Jones spreadsheet long enough 87 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:52,880 Speaker 3: to say this. 88 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:56,080 Speaker 6: So on the talks I can tell you, having been 89 00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:58,880 Speaker 6: with Steve and Jared and the vice president and many 90 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 6: Marco and many others, actually they are very real. They're ongoing, 91 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 6: they're active, and I think gaining strength into rockets. 92 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 3: Artemises go. 93 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 10: The vehicle's ready, the system is ready, the crew is ready, 94 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 10: and behind this flight stands a campaign landings, a lunar base, 95 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:20,200 Speaker 10: a nuclear propulsion, ended deep space that begins, not ends 96 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:23,120 Speaker 10: with what happens on Wednesday evening. I have complete confidence 97 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 10: in this team in the NASA work for. 98 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:26,920 Speaker 3: Us about twenty nine hours away. Finally, the universities of 99 00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:28,800 Speaker 3: Sydney and Calgary have looked into the need for a 100 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:31,640 Speaker 3: plane to be evacuated within ninety seconds in an emergency. 101 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 3: And what they're suggesting is splitting up the elderly so 102 00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 3: they aren't sitting beside each other to make see it 103 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:39,839 Speaker 3: makes it all go faster, because you know what the 104 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:41,599 Speaker 3: old people are like. They all got a browlly and 105 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:43,720 Speaker 3: they all got their handbag, and they've dropped their lunch, 106 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 3: and then they've got to get under the seat and 107 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 3: Basically they can't move properly, so if there's any more 108 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:51,160 Speaker 3: than thirty on a standard plane, the simulation found they 109 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 3: failed the ninety second test every time. So one idea 110 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 3: age restrictions or limiting the number of elderly on any 111 00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:01,200 Speaker 3: given plight, or indeed my idea doing dumb studies that 112 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:04,479 Speaker 3: go nowhere. News of the world of night do you want? 113 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:06,880 Speaker 3: It's the jobs blood bath this morning. Oracles literally just 114 00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:09,480 Speaker 3: announced they're cutting thousands of people. This will be AI 115 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:12,040 Speaker 3: again and the other number out this morning from the US. 116 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:16,800 Speaker 3: Businesses are adding workers at their weakest pace in fifteen years, 117 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 3: so the hiring for now is off. Twelve past six, The. 118 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 1: Mic Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered by 119 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 1: News Talks. 120 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 3: Be also on jobs. UNILBA internationally implementing a three month 121 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:36,160 Speaker 3: long hiring pause. They cite the Middle East. They're a 122 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,960 Speaker 3: company that employs ninety six thousand people, four hundred brands, 123 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:42,120 Speaker 3: and Eurozone inflation the walls already affecting them gone from 124 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:45,480 Speaker 3: one point nine to two point five. Only good point 125 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:48,640 Speaker 3: was the expectation from economists was it was going to 126 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 3: be two point six, so not as bad as they thought. 127 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:56,480 Speaker 3: Fifteen sure and partners Andrew Kellah had good morning, Good 128 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 3: morning Mike, talk about ability to get into a funk, 129 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:01,799 Speaker 3: real fast. What's twenty six points? Just like that? Bang, 130 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 3: I thinks, bang Yeah. 131 00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:06,560 Speaker 11: Yesterday morning I said that we will start to see 132 00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:09,960 Speaker 11: the impact of the Middle East conflict on New Zealand data. 133 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:11,920 Speaker 11: Well we didn't have to wait long for that, did we, 134 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 11: because you know, yesterday we had the release of the 135 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 11: A and Z Business Outlook and headline business confidence has 136 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:21,719 Speaker 11: fallen twenty six points. That is a material move. So 137 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 11: as you talk about that through the rest of the morning, 138 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:26,440 Speaker 11: might come. Sure you will have a smallas board of 139 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 11: colorful adjectives that you can use to describe that it 140 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 11: fell from fifty nine to thirty three, and am Z 141 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:37,160 Speaker 11: do detail how the response has changed over the course 142 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:39,320 Speaker 11: of the month, and to take any suspense away from 143 00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 11: what that is, they quite dramatically worsened as the responses 144 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:46,679 Speaker 11: were received over the course of March. So business confidence 145 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,039 Speaker 11: is back to levels we saw in the middle of 146 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,840 Speaker 11: twenty twenty four. You remember that we recession we had 147 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:56,920 Speaker 11: July twenty fourth, so confidence as simply evaporated. So look, 148 00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:00,440 Speaker 11: headline business confidence, there's a lot of sentiment, that blue 149 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:03,719 Speaker 11: sky number people out there looking own activity outlook, which 150 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:05,600 Speaker 11: is a little more sort of a little more sort 151 00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:08,719 Speaker 11: of nuanced. That fell from fifty three to thirty nine. 152 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:11,880 Speaker 11: The number that's a little more concerning for me is 153 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 11: the move in past activity. So past activity that's real numbers. 154 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 11: They ask people what has happened to your business compared 155 00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:21,200 Speaker 11: to last year, So it fell from twenty three to eighteen, 156 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:24,520 Speaker 11: which suggests that it's not just a sentiment of confid issue. 157 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 11: There actually was a fall there, sharpfall for retail. But 158 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 11: you can see that some form some firms are already 159 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:33,320 Speaker 11: sort of feeling the impact, and it was broad based, 160 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 11: it wasn't just an isolated pockets. Now that's the best 161 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 11: indicator of GDP, So that is a little bit worrying, 162 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 11: and I think Sharon Zola commented that some firms are 163 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 11: reporting ahead as people starts, they're deferring decision making in 164 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 11: the face of uncertainty. 165 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 3: So there you have it. 166 00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 11: Inflation indicators, they've gone up again, unsurprising percentage of firms 167 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:56,160 Speaker 11: looking to raise their prices. That's up seven points eighty 168 00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 11: five percent of firms looking to raise their prices. It 169 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 11: was sevent to night pers previously. That's the highest in 170 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:05,119 Speaker 11: twenty twenty three, and in sort of I guess another 171 00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 11: worrying sign for hopes of that employment revival and employment recovery. 172 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 11: Employment and tensions fell from twenty two to nine. I 173 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:16,400 Speaker 11: guess the question I have when I'm always trying to 174 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:18,440 Speaker 11: look forward on what's going to happen, is if the 175 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 11: warar were to end, how quickly would this recover? 176 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 3: And we don't really know that at the moment, No, 177 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:25,560 Speaker 3: we don't. And then we come to KMD, who had 178 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 3: troubles before the war as well. 179 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 11: That's right, So Comdi Brands we talked to this yesterday 180 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:33,280 Speaker 11: morning as well, so we were looking for an announcement 181 00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 11: during the day yesterday we got it. The company has 182 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:39,760 Speaker 11: been successful in arranging a rescue package. In this case, 183 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 11: it's a heavily discounted capital race. So they're looking to 184 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 11: raise sixty five point three million dollars in new capital. 185 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:47,440 Speaker 7: That is fully underwritten. 186 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:49,920 Speaker 11: Though what that means is they will get the money 187 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 11: regardless of how it comes as enough for prise of 188 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 11: six cents a share pre trading it was nineteen and 189 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:59,760 Speaker 11: a half cents per sare David Kirk, the company chairman 190 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:03,839 Speaker 11: will step down. They also released their results, so they 191 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:07,800 Speaker 11: did improve sales, but profitability was under pressure MIC so 192 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:10,080 Speaker 11: they're doing a lot of discounting, so they record a 193 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 11: loss of thirteen point one million. The shares will start 194 00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 11: trading again tomorrow. So look, with the problem that cap 195 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 11: munder brands had was they've fixed costs. They're things like interest, 196 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 11: rents and leases. This year though, and so let's be positive. 197 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:26,440 Speaker 11: This year though, does look to have started better, and 198 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:28,199 Speaker 11: let's hope that carries on for them. 199 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:30,120 Speaker 3: Well, they seem to have a plan, don't they. They 200 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:33,400 Speaker 3: say they've got a plan they do. Okay, what else 201 00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 3: you canna tell me? Wellny, you look me up a 202 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 3: bit this morning. 203 00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:41,360 Speaker 11: You know, I've been saying just don't look at the headlines. 204 00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:43,719 Speaker 11: It's getting harder because these headlines are just starting to 205 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 11: become seemingly sort of kind of random. But we've had 206 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:49,599 Speaker 11: a wonderful rally in the share market. I mean, the 207 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:52,200 Speaker 11: Nastak's up three and a half percent, and I look 208 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:54,680 Speaker 11: at that and I go, something must have happened. But 209 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 11: then I twist my head around to another screen and 210 00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 11: we've got Brent Crude at one hundred and eighteen dollars 211 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 11: a bait. 212 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,439 Speaker 7: So look, there could be a little bit of. 213 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 11: Jockeying going on because it's end of month over in 214 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,680 Speaker 11: the US.

It's from 314 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 3: the tech sector and they're booming, and they reckon they 315 00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 3: can boom even more if we all got along together. 316 00:14:57,640 --> 00:14:59,280 Speaker 3: And we sort of got a bit at the old 317 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:02,600 Speaker 3: cross party. Anyway, they put together these ideas what we 318 00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:05,120 Speaker 3: need is ABC DNA, and I looked at those and 319 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:07,800 Speaker 3: I thought I would argue to a degree anyway, we've 320 00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:11,040 Speaker 3: already got them. So anyway, we'll put a few questions 321 00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:11,920 Speaker 3: to the tech sector. 322 00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 1: Shortly, the newsmakers and the personalities, the big names talk 323 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:21,400 Speaker 1: to Mike the mic asking breakfast with a Vida, retirement communities, 324 00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:23,840 Speaker 1: Life your Way news Tog said, Ben. 325 00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:26,080 Speaker 3: Here's the thing Trump can mind about the oil and 326 00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:27,560 Speaker 3: the lack of help and all that sort of stuff, 327 00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 3: and tell us to go get our own oil. But 328 00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:31,920 Speaker 3: the problem in America is that petrol's just cracked four 329 00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:34,280 Speaker 3: dollars a gallon, and it's up more than a dollar 330 00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:36,000 Speaker 3: in a month, and diesels up more than a dollar 331 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:38,960 Speaker 3: seventy And because it's all globally traded and they may 332 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:40,720 Speaker 3: well have lots of it, doesn't mean they're not paying 333 00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:42,600 Speaker 3: the price if you're up in California at six dollars 334 00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:45,280 Speaker 3: ten for goodness sake, and that hurts him in his 335 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 3: political prospects.

It's worth seventeen million 339 00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:59,400 Speaker 3: a year. They can take it. They claim to thirty 340 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:02,000 Speaker 3: billion with a decade, but they need our help. It's 341 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:04,320 Speaker 3: all in their latest report. Graham Mullet is the CEO 342 00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:06,480 Speaker 3: of Tech New Zealand, and he's well there's Graham morning to. 343 00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:08,160 Speaker 8: You, moning mate. 344 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 3: Just first things first, at the stage, going well generally 345 00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:13,440 Speaker 3: and you're underappreciated, would that be the vibe? 346 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:18,640 Speaker 13: Yeah, I don't even think it's underappreciated, just just not aware. 347 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 13: So yeah, going well, I mean just the other day, 348 00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 13: another company became a unicorn in New Zealand. You would 349 00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:27,640 Speaker 13: have heard of Halter and how it's Yeah, within ten 350 00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:31,200 Speaker 13: years become a multi billion dollar company and exporting huge 351 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:32,200 Speaker 13: amounts in New Zealand. 352 00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 3: That's what I meant. It's just like there's those we 353 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 3: did that story on the program, and it's like that 354 00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:40,760 Speaker 3: should be a household name like Fontira is, and yet 355 00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:43,440 Speaker 3: it's not exactly. 356 00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:46,600 Speaker 13: And I think people just gaze over when they hear 357 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:49,400 Speaker 13: the word tech, and it's just easier to think about 358 00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:52,000 Speaker 13: the stuff that you know, make your phone and how 359 00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:54,080 Speaker 13: that works when you hear tech, and so it gets 360 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:56,440 Speaker 13: dumbed down a lot. And yeah, there's a lot of 361 00:16:56,440 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 13: great stuff happening, and yeah, I guess underappreciated. I guess 362 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:00,680 Speaker 13: could say, is right. 363 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:03,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, tech encompasses what though, I mean, how broad is this? 364 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:07,639 Speaker 13: Yeah, I mean that's one of the challenges. It's very broad. Nowaday. 365 00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:09,959 Speaker 13: So you've got that creative and the gaming sector. We've 366 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:12,240 Speaker 13: got some really great gaming companies that are doing great. 367 00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:15,679 Speaker 13: You've got sort of the hard tech like Halter, bringing 368 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 13: software and hardware together to create a unique products. You've 369 00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:22,960 Speaker 13: got some really interesting deep tech we call them heavily 370 00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:26,480 Speaker 13: scienced things that are inside the middle of computer screens 371 00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:29,200 Speaker 13: and up on space stations and things like that, and 372 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:32,400 Speaker 13: lots of digital stuff. And you've got biotech as well. 373 00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:35,840 Speaker 3: Yeah. So, in reading your report your four corner stones 374 00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:38,560 Speaker 3: world class local digital infrastructure, how far short of that 375 00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:38,919 Speaker 3: are you? 376 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:41,000 Speaker 12: Yeah? 377 00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 13: We're quite quite quite short, really, And the way I 378 00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:46,800 Speaker 13: think it's easier to think about this, these are the 379 00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:48,760 Speaker 13: roads of the future, right, so there are some things 380 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:50,800 Speaker 13: that need to be put in place to enable a 381 00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:54,120 Speaker 13: digital economy to really fly. And that'd be like at 382 00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:56,800 Speaker 13: the moment we're saying, Awkland, you build a road one direction, Wellington, 383 00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:59,040 Speaker 13: you build a road run direction, and then we'll see 384 00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:02,520 Speaker 13: what happens. There's some major stuff that really a government's 385 00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:04,280 Speaker 13: the only person who can really get on and do it. 386 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:07,120 Speaker 3: See what I got out of this is you asked 387 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:11,040 Speaker 3: for sort of bipartisan help or support or understanding I'm 388 00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:13,760 Speaker 3: not what is it about tech that would see the 389 00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:16,880 Speaker 3: politicians at each other. I mean, surely we're all roughly 390 00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:17,840 Speaker 3: in alignment, are we. 391 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:20,440 Speaker 1: Yeah. 392 00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:23,080 Speaker 13: I think it's just more of the understanding. And so 393 00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:28,320 Speaker 13: you've got things like policy around consumer product data active 394 00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:31,199 Speaker 13: it gets really complicated really fast, and digital identity and 395 00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:34,840 Speaker 13: things like that really complicated. And these things need to 396 00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:37,040 Speaker 13: go as fast as they can to put security in 397 00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 13: place and systems in place for all of New Zealand. 398 00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:46,000 Speaker 13: And it needs to go across multiple election cycles because 399 00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:49,359 Speaker 13: it's like building roads and other infrastructure, and so you 400 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:51,080 Speaker 13: don't see you don't see tech coming up in the 401 00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:56,040 Speaker 13: infrastructure plan for the government and and and these things 402 00:18:56,080 --> 00:19:00,159 Speaker 13: are multi year investments. So both parties need to all 403 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:02,119 Speaker 13: parties need to really get on board and understand how 404 00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 13: important it is. 405 00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:05,359 Speaker 3: A couple of other things abundant and affordable clean energy, 406 00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:08,000 Speaker 3: we can't be far short of that, and strong global 407 00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:12,040 Speaker 3: connections and export excellence. I would argue we're in the park, 408 00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:12,480 Speaker 3: aren't we. 409 00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:13,800 Speaker 8: Yeah. 410 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:16,719 Speaker 13: I mean we've got this huge opportunity with energy. One 411 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:18,879 Speaker 13: of the things that makes it slightly difficult is the 412 00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:21,880 Speaker 13: pricing and the way it happens. We need to probably 413 00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:24,959 Speaker 13: move more to a dynamic pricing model just so it 414 00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:27,120 Speaker 13: comes on better and there's a lot of clean energy 415 00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:28,560 Speaker 13: in the pipeline to get a little bit more of 416 00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:31,240 Speaker 13: that on flow. But it really makes us so attractive 417 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:35,480 Speaker 13: because technology choose a lot of electricity all the time. 418 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:37,479 Speaker 13: Using our phone, except all of us takes a lot 419 00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:40,119 Speaker 13: of electricity. We're only going to use more. New Zealand's 420 00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:43,439 Speaker 13: got a huge advantage there. We are globally connected, but 421 00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:46,560 Speaker 13: there's areas where we're not that connected. And all the 422 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:49,400 Speaker 13: policy settings around AI or the new stuff like quantum, 423 00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:52,840 Speaker 13: so there's kind of treating technology like we treated trade. 424 00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:55,200 Speaker 13: We need to step up in the world and actually 425 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:58,000 Speaker 13: try and get amongst all those users and shakers and 426 00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:01,040 Speaker 13: the policy setting standards. They're all to make sure that 427 00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:04,320 Speaker 13: those in special rules have beneficial for new yeing companies. 428 00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:05,880 Speaker 3: Well, all I can do is wish you the best 429 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:07,840 Speaker 3: will that makes sense to make Grin appreciate of Groanmuller, 430 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:10,440 Speaker 3: who's the CEO of Tech New Zealand. Richard Standing By 431 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:11,280 Speaker 3: eighteen to two. 432 00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:16,359 Speaker 1: The Mic Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio, power 433 00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:17,520 Speaker 1: It by News Talks EPI. 434 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:21,840 Speaker 3: A question Mike, why wouldn't that, gentleman think New Zealand 435 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:24,360 Speaker 3: already had clean energy It comes from hydro. I think 436 00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:26,560 Speaker 3: the word really was more abundant, and we don't have 437 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:29,040 Speaker 3: abundant energy at this particular point in time. We're getting 438 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,240 Speaker 3: there slowly, but the suggestion is we are on the 439 00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:33,080 Speaker 3: right path, and if you toss in a couple of 440 00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 3: data centers, we're going to be squeezing the whole thing. 441 00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 3: But it's certainly clean, and hopefully before long it will 442 00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:38,760 Speaker 3: be abundant as well. 443 00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:43,679 Speaker 14: Six forty five International correspondence with Ends and Eye Insurance 444 00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:45,800 Speaker 14: Peace of Mind for New Zealand Business. 445 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:49,080 Speaker 3: Fadside morning, Good morning mate, I got you in excess 446 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:51,760 Speaker 3: of six bucks and sokel for the gas. 447 00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:56,640 Speaker 15: Well, you know, there's no set price in California. The 448 00:20:56,840 --> 00:21:00,119 Speaker 15: various outlets set their own charges and their attacks and 449 00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:02,879 Speaker 15: things involved. So you find a range of these things 450 00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:04,960 Speaker 15: that can go up a lot higher. And so I 451 00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:07,200 Speaker 15: don't know, take me a while with the calculator to 452 00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:10,680 Speaker 15: do the currency conversion and change the US gallon through 453 00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:14,399 Speaker 15: leaders by three point seven eight or whatever it is 454 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:17,600 Speaker 15: to the US gallon. But yeah, it's getting pretty pricey 455 00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:19,520 Speaker 15: as the bottom line here, and people are feeling it. 456 00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:21,240 Speaker 3: Exactly where are we at for the war? 457 00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:24,800 Speaker 15: Well, the question is where the Trump's going to prepare 458 00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:27,040 Speaker 15: to cut and run the Murdoco and Wall Street Journal 459 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:30,360 Speaker 15: says several Trump aids say that Trump privately is suggesting 460 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:32,920 Speaker 15: he's willing to end the war in Iran even if 461 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:35,720 Speaker 15: the key oil pipeline for much of the world through 462 00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:38,399 Speaker 15: the state of Hormos remains largely shut down. British reporter 463 00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:41,960 Speaker 15: It Loose is the latest to speak privately with Trump. 464 00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:45,159 Speaker 15: He called him and yeah, sometimes Trump just picks up 465 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:48,280 Speaker 15: the bone and talks away, and is saying that in 466 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:50,679 Speaker 15: that chat, Trump kept returning to the idea of simply 467 00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 15: taking Iranian oil, as the US did with Venezuelan and 468 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 15: oil after seizing the Duro, says Loose. 469 00:21:57,280 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 16: He was talking about taking around Goyle, how easy it 470 00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:04,560 Speaker 16: would be to seize car Guier. 471 00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:07,800 Speaker 15: He says, Trump kept returning to this idea of seizing 472 00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:10,920 Speaker 15: the Iranian oil, even as the scenario in Iran after 473 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 15: its leadership decapitation is quite different from what happened in Venezuela. 474 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:17,159 Speaker 15: And Venezuela, of course, Delsea Rodriguez took over with the 475 00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 15: remaining regime and life goes on in Iran. The country 476 00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:23,280 Speaker 15: still is in the sway of the Revolutionary Guard, which 477 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:27,600 Speaker 15: has shown itself to be increasingly enraged. Iranian forces have 478 00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:30,000 Speaker 15: responded to the US and Israeli attacks a bit more 479 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 15: effectively than the Trump team had initially thought, hitting a 480 00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:36,320 Speaker 15: fully loaded oil tanker of Dubai in its latest drive. 481 00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:40,720 Speaker 15: Trump claims the negotiations have been underway with some Iranian leaders, 482 00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:43,960 Speaker 15: but LuSE asked the obvious question, who are you talking to? 483 00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:47,800 Speaker 15: Since Iran says there are actually no negotiations, the answer 484 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:51,680 Speaker 15: appears to be they're talking directly with no one, says loose. 485 00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 2: It turned out it's really all indirect. 486 00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:57,800 Speaker 16: It's Pakistan as a messenger. 487 00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:01,680 Speaker 15: Trump also has laid out another furious social media post. 488 00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 15: You've been talking about some of this. He's telling uslos 489 00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:07,240 Speaker 15: or sometime allos, to just take the strait of Hormos. 490 00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:10,159 Speaker 15: Trump's saying, quote, build up some delayed courage, go to 491 00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:12,400 Speaker 15: the strait and just take it. You'll have to start 492 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:14,600 Speaker 15: learning how to fight for yourself. The USA won't be 493 00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:18,520 Speaker 15: there to help you anymore, just like you weren't there 494 00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:20,520 Speaker 15: for us. The hard part is done, says Trump, who 495 00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:24,600 Speaker 15: adds quote, go get your own oil. Hegseth, the US 496 00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:28,800 Speaker 15: Defense Secretary, has echoed some of this at his briefing today. 497 00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:31,720 Speaker 6: This is an international waterway that we use less than most, 498 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:34,560 Speaker 6: in fact dramatically less than most. So the world ough't 499 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:36,800 Speaker 6: pay attention to be prepared to stand up. President Trump's 500 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:38,680 Speaker 6: been willing to do the heavy lifting on behalf of 501 00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:39,240 Speaker 6: the free world. 502 00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:39,679 Speaker 15: Stand up. 503 00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 3: He says. 504 00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:42,120 Speaker 15: It appears that the Trump team thought that your own 505 00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:45,240 Speaker 15: campaign could be done within a short period of time. Instead, 506 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:48,000 Speaker 15: we're now past the one month market. Energy prices are 507 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:51,919 Speaker 15: soaring around the world. Petrol prices here, as we've been saying, 508 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:55,040 Speaker 15: have gone up to a four year high a mid 509 00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:57,920 Speaker 15: warnings they're going to go significantly higher from here on. 510 00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:00,439 Speaker 15: The Gulf States urging Trump to press on with the 511 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:03,560 Speaker 15: US military operation now that the war is engaged. They 512 00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:05,680 Speaker 15: say it must be fully dealt with or the Gulf 513 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:08,240 Speaker 15: States will be living in the region where Iran now 514 00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:11,960 Speaker 15: controls the oil flow. There will soon be ripple effects 515 00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:15,040 Speaker 15: in many other areas, including spiraling food costs and airline 516 00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:18,600 Speaker 15: costs and other transport costs affecting many many things. Trump 517 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:22,600 Speaker 15: is threatening to destroy Iran's water and energy infrastructure. If 518 00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:24,920 Speaker 15: a deal to end the war and reopen the oil 519 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:28,359 Speaker 15: route is not done soon, Trump's Whitehouse pr Carolyn Levitt 520 00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:31,440 Speaker 15: ignored a question about where the targeting civilian sites would 521 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:34,120 Speaker 15: amount to a war crime. She simply dodged that if 522 00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 15: the Trump team ends this war, leaving the Revolutionary Guard 523 00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:39,320 Speaker 15: in power and with a run controlling the oil in 524 00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:42,520 Speaker 15: a more direct way, that couldly run in some respects 525 00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:45,359 Speaker 15: in a stronger political position than before the war, despite 526 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 15: its military losses. At the same time, a ground war 527 00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:51,680 Speaker 15: obviously would be risky and turn this unpopular war into 528 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:54,640 Speaker 15: a huge liability for Trump, whose favorability numbers have hit 529 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:58,080 Speaker 15: their lowest points so far, just thirty three percent support. 530 00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:02,480 Speaker 3: Latest opinion seems positive with atemis it. 531 00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:04,879 Speaker 15: Does, of course, you'd never know until they get the 532 00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:08,440 Speaker 15: final countdown. But no human has walked on the Moon 533 00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:11,120 Speaker 15: in fifty four years. Pollo commander Jeens Sernan was there 534 00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:13,439 Speaker 15: in seventy two, and now the clock is ticking for 535 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:17,600 Speaker 15: this planned launch of the Atomous two mission, taking four astronauts, 536 00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:19,720 Speaker 15: three Americans and a Canadian on a test flight to 537 00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:22,360 Speaker 15: loop around the Moon. This will be the longest distance 538 00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:24,960 Speaker 15: for a crued space flight in history. They will get 539 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:26,800 Speaker 15: I guess, the close up of the dark side of 540 00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:28,920 Speaker 15: the Moon, then head back to the planet. Earth's commander 541 00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:30,600 Speaker 15: read WEISSMA four of us. 542 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:32,639 Speaker 13: We are ready to go, The team is ready to go, 543 00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:33,800 Speaker 13: and the vehicle is ready to go. 544 00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:36,520 Speaker 15: To power this flight, NASA's built one of the biggest 545 00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:39,000 Speaker 15: rockets ever, ninety eight meters tall, so we're talking about 546 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:41,840 Speaker 15: the height of a thirty story building. There are four 547 00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:44,440 Speaker 15: engines at the base and a couple of booster rockets. 548 00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:47,040 Speaker 15: Then right at the top is the relatively small Orion 549 00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:49,880 Speaker 15: space capsule. I saw a version of this capsule when 550 00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:52,639 Speaker 15: I was at Cape Canaveral. It's about the size of 551 00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:55,840 Speaker 15: a camper van with seats that are collapsible once they 552 00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:59,160 Speaker 15: get into space, but four people tight quarters here. Victor 553 00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:01,520 Speaker 15: Glover is the pilot. He is a former Navy test 554 00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:02,600 Speaker 15: pilot and says. 555 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:05,320 Speaker 10: I think personally and professionally, it is going to satisfy 556 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:08,760 Speaker 10: all of this risk chasing that I've been doing for 557 00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:09,520 Speaker 10: twenty seven years. 558 00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 15: Okay, it comes as NASA hopes to land astronauts on 559 00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:14,480 Speaker 15: the Moon again. By twenty twenty eight, had a time 560 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:18,400 Speaker 15: of much geopolitical descent Glover, saying that also was true 561 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:22,080 Speaker 15: of the Apollo flights burred by the space race with Moscow, 562 00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:24,239 Speaker 15: but this time the US is back on board as 563 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:27,040 Speaker 15: China and Russia both are gearing up to establish a 564 00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:29,840 Speaker 15: nuclear powered village on the Moon within ten years. 565 00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:32,640 Speaker 3: Well, mate, twenty eight hours, I've got so we're talking 566 00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:35,040 Speaker 3: ten eleven o'clock card tomorrow morning, our time, Richard Arnold, 567 00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:37,280 Speaker 3: State Side nine to seven, the. 568 00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:41,840 Speaker 1: Mic Hosking Breakfast with a Vita Retirement Communities News togs. 569 00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:43,679 Speaker 3: Head be Trump's sitting it up so that when he 570 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:45,480 Speaker 3: takes the straight back and you charge for the ships 571 00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:47,159 Speaker 3: to go through it, I think you've slightly misread that. 572 00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:49,720 Speaker 3: I think he's I think that's something that Iran would want, 573 00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:51,399 Speaker 3: and you might end up with some sort of weird 574 00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:53,040 Speaker 3: co lab on that. But I don't think he's doing 575 00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:55,240 Speaker 3: it for himself. Mike, So, is Trump essentially trying to 576 00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:57,440 Speaker 3: hold the rest of the world to as an economic hostage? 577 00:26:57,800 --> 00:26:59,680 Speaker 3: I don't think Trump knows what he's doing. I think 578 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:02,760 Speaker 3: the business that started to concern me were the Gold States. 579 00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:04,639 Speaker 3: When they got attacked. They were surprised, they said, they 580 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:06,320 Speaker 3: were surprised how you could not see that coming. I 581 00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:09,560 Speaker 3: got no idea, and when they said it seemed surprised 582 00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:11,520 Speaker 3: that the Strait got closed as well. How they didn't 583 00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 3: see that coming. I have no idea either, so I 584 00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:16,800 Speaker 3: think somebody convinced them it would be super simple, and 585 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:18,480 Speaker 3: some stuff has happened. He doesn't know how to get 586 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:20,639 Speaker 3: out of Hence he's whining a lot on social media. 587 00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:24,520 Speaker 3: Six away from seven, all the ins and the ouse. 588 00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:28,920 Speaker 1: It's the fizz with business tiber take your business productivity 589 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:30,240 Speaker 1: to the next level now. 590 00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:33,800 Speaker 3: In more SME news yesterday, SME is concerned about the 591 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:36,000 Speaker 3: war today. The growth gap is getting wider between US 592 00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:37,800 Speaker 3: and the majority of the Asia Pacific. We've got the 593 00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:41,560 Speaker 3: CPA Australia's annual Small Business Survey, so that looks the 594 00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:45,080 Speaker 3: thousands of businesses across eleven markets, those markets being Australia, China, 595 00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:49,000 Speaker 3: Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, US, the Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan 596 00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:52,240 Speaker 3: and Vietnam. So it found that we're dead last, dead 597 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:56,040 Speaker 3: last when it comes to our SME's growing second year 598 00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:57,919 Speaker 3: in a row, we've been dead last. Only thirty eight 599 00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:01,240 Speaker 3: percent of seme's reported growth last year on average. Not 600 00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:03,960 Speaker 3: good of those countries, sixty two percent c growth, so 601 00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:09,040 Speaker 3: sixty two versus thirty eight. Vietnam most growth eighty four 602 00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:11,320 Speaker 3: and a half percent of their businesses grow. Singapore is 603 00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:13,560 Speaker 3: our next closest competitor at forty three point five, which 604 00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:17,080 Speaker 3: is interesting because you think of Singapore as being broadly successful. 605 00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:20,320 Speaker 3: Other indicators are just five percent of our SMEs plan 606 00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:23,080 Speaker 3: to introduce a new product or service. That's down from 607 00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:25,960 Speaker 3: eight percent last year. That compares to the global average 608 00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:28,440 Speaker 3: of twenty nine. That's about innovation, I think be is 609 00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:31,600 Speaker 3: essentially that speaks to innovation or lack of it. Only 610 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:34,360 Speaker 3: seven percent of our businesses say they will hire this year, 611 00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:37,080 Speaker 3: competer to thirty six percent on average. We also have 612 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:40,680 Speaker 3: the oldest small business ownership sixty eight percent. Because that's 613 00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:43,120 Speaker 3: the culture, isn't it the culture in Asia? There's a 614 00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:46,520 Speaker 3: culture of running your own business, at least in part 615 00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:49,000 Speaker 3: in New Zealand. The culture is developed when you're made 616 00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:52,280 Speaker 3: redundant at your job and then you go buy yourself 617 00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:56,480 Speaker 3: a job via your own business. We aren't all miserable though, 618 00:28:56,520 --> 00:28:59,640 Speaker 3: despite those number. Seventy nine percent in New Zealand say 619 00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:02,120 Speaker 3: the satisfied with running their own business and I think 620 00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:04,920 Speaker 3: that also goes to attitude, because I know a number 621 00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,040 Speaker 3: of people who run their own business and they run 622 00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:08,840 Speaker 3: it in a way, not that I would say this 623 00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:10,760 Speaker 3: to them, well I do sometimes say it to them. 624 00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 3: They don't like me. They run it in a way 625 00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:16,200 Speaker 3: where they like a nice long weekend, you know, and 626 00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:18,760 Speaker 3: they're in the service industry, and then the closing down 627 00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:21,640 Speaker 3: for Easter, or they love a Friday off, or they 628 00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:24,360 Speaker 3: knock off at two thirty. And you want to say periodically, 629 00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:27,520 Speaker 3: you realize if you stay open longer, you'll actually get 630 00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:30,280 Speaker 3: some more bizzarh. Nah, it's been a long week, Mike. 631 00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:31,160 Speaker 3: That's the sort of thing. 632 00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:31,360 Speaker 12: You know. 633 00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:33,560 Speaker 3: It's got that about it. It's got that vibe about it. 634 00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:35,960 Speaker 3: Do we care about Winston going to the cooks. I'm 635 00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:38,280 Speaker 3: really struggling to grow some interest in the court. I 636 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:41,040 Speaker 3: couldn't give the monkeys about the cooks. If that Mark 637 00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:43,280 Speaker 3: Brown guy wants to hang out with China and treat 638 00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:46,080 Speaker 3: us badly, then he can go get lost. That would 639 00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:50,080 Speaker 3: be my Costking Foreign Minister, go get lost. Unfortunately, Peter's 640 00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:51,960 Speaker 3: is jumping on a plane and he's going across. So 641 00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:53,480 Speaker 3: we'll talk about that in the next half hour of 642 00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:56,440 Speaker 3: the program. Trade Minister back in the country, Todd McLay 643 00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:59,760 Speaker 3: want to get them on Reindia and labor mucking around 644 00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:01,160 Speaker 3: with it. What's going on there? 645 00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:05,880 Speaker 1: Incredible compelling The breakfast show you can't best. It's the 646 00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:10,000 Speaker 1: mic asking Breakfast with Ranger over Sport SV the Ultimate 647 00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:12,240 Speaker 1: Performance SUV News togs ed V. 648 00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:14,360 Speaker 3: Seven past seven. So we're trying to patch up the 649 00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:16,600 Speaker 3: falling out we've had with the Cooks. Winston Peter said 650 00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:18,440 Speaker 3: to meet with the Cooks. PM Mark Brown follows a 651 00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:21,000 Speaker 3: private meeting the two head last week. Here we've got 652 00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:22,920 Speaker 3: this thirty million dollars in aid still suspended. 653 00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:23,320 Speaker 12: Of course. 654 00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:26,480 Speaker 3: Doctor na Poles is Massi University Associate Professor and the 655 00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:29,200 Speaker 3: Center of Defense and Pacific Care Security Studies, and is 656 00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:33,280 Speaker 3: with us in a good morning, good morning. Who's working harder? 657 00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:33,480 Speaker 12: Hear? 658 00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:34,520 Speaker 3: And who needs to more? 659 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:36,480 Speaker 7: Well? 660 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:38,320 Speaker 17: I think from the sound of it, both sides are 661 00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:45,160 Speaker 17: working fairly, fairly hard. It's certainly very clear that over 662 00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:49,920 Speaker 17: the past past six months, certainly that the Cook Islands 663 00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:57,360 Speaker 17: have really prioritized mending this rist. Most notably was the 664 00:30:57,400 --> 00:31:02,440 Speaker 17: appointment of the former High Commissioner to Tenisei and Elizabeth's Courteca 665 00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:07,160 Speaker 17: Wright as head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and 666 00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:14,280 Speaker 17: she has been explicitly instructed to rebuild bilateral trust between 667 00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:16,680 Speaker 17: the two countries. So there's no doubt that both sides 668 00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:18,240 Speaker 17: are making it a significant effort. 669 00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:21,800 Speaker 3: And was this really about Mark Brown or about the Cooks? 670 00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:23,080 Speaker 3: Is Brown an issue or not? 671 00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:29,280 Speaker 17: Well, the issue for New Zealand was the lack of 672 00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:35,680 Speaker 17: consultation around the signing of the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership with 673 00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:40,600 Speaker 17: China in twenty twenty five and lack of consultation. So 674 00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:47,160 Speaker 17: the issue is about expectations under the Joint Declaration between 675 00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:49,480 Speaker 17: between the two countries which were signed in two thousand 676 00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:55,120 Speaker 17: and one called four of that and call seven stipulates 677 00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:59,640 Speaker 17: consultation between the two countries. So the tension was around 678 00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:06,480 Speaker 17: xations and understanding of the agreement and the spirit of 679 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:11,160 Speaker 17: it and procedural expectations around consultation. 680 00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:14,760 Speaker 3: And would you expect some sort of arrangement to be reached? 681 00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:16,480 Speaker 3: In other words, is this a meeting that's going to 682 00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:17,840 Speaker 3: come out with something tangible? 683 00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:23,479 Speaker 17: I think hopefully it will the fact that Wes Peter's 684 00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:29,360 Speaker 17: the Mark ground mattin formally at West and Peter's Home 685 00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:35,880 Speaker 17: released a joint statement afterwards, stating that they had been 686 00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:40,200 Speaker 17: engaged and that they held a private meeting and that 687 00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:46,280 Speaker 17: they had discussed the fundamental challenges facing the relationship, the 688 00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:50,440 Speaker 17: bilateral relationship, and that political dialogue will continue in the 689 00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:57,040 Speaker 17: coming weeks. So I think that we will certainly we 690 00:32:57,080 --> 00:33:00,400 Speaker 17: can expect to hear something positive out of this. But 691 00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:03,120 Speaker 17: whether or not this how this put the relationship is 692 00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:05,000 Speaker 17: progressing is it's less clear. 693 00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:07,360 Speaker 3: Well, hopefully we'll hear something tomorrow. Appreciate it very much, 694 00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:10,040 Speaker 3: Doctor Anipol's out of a MESSI University, ten minutes past 695 00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:13,240 Speaker 3: seven tem A. Here a case, fascinating example of the 696 00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:16,120 Speaker 3: judicial process basically being worked every which way. It began 697 00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:18,360 Speaker 3: an eighty nine, for goodness sake, with the convictions of 698 00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:21,240 Speaker 3: the murders of the two Swedish backpackers. Supreme Court yesterday 699 00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:25,160 Speaker 3: quashed those convictions. Trial was unfair, evidence was concocted. Two 700 00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:29,320 Speaker 3: things now a potential retrial and potentially compensation. Nigel Hampton 701 00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:31,600 Speaker 3: k C is back. Whether there's Nigel morning to you, 702 00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:34,840 Speaker 3: good morning the Court of Appeal last year or in 703 00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:38,800 Speaker 3: twenty four rather, the Harris bit of that story they 704 00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 3: thought he was still guilty and didn't quash. Is that 705 00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:45,640 Speaker 3: is that a major error on their part? Why would 706 00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:46,560 Speaker 3: they have done what they did? 707 00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:47,640 Speaker 12: Well? 708 00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:53,000 Speaker 18: It is a major era, like right than the time 709 00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:56,160 Speaker 18: I found that they've been a miscarriage, then that had 710 00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:59,480 Speaker 18: to go back for retrial. There were so many fundamental 711 00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:02,120 Speaker 18: things wrong with this trial going back into the eighties, 712 00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:05,200 Speaker 18: as you say, thirty six thirty seven years ago, just 713 00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:10,480 Speaker 18: incredible when you look back. But there were three peatures 714 00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:16,800 Speaker 18: here that common to miscarriages of justice, and the three 715 00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:23,320 Speaker 18: that in this particular case were one some eyewitness identification evidence, 716 00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:26,680 Speaker 18: which was always somewhat shaky, and indeed, before the original 717 00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:30,400 Speaker 18: trial started the first trial judge wanted to knock that 718 00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:33,480 Speaker 18: evidence out that course of poll put it back. Secondly, 719 00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:42,360 Speaker 18: they then had the child house confession stuff, one of 720 00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:45,759 Speaker 18: which that they used the police used to sort of 721 00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:49,680 Speaker 18: bolster the identification evidence. And of course one of those 722 00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:53,120 Speaker 18: snitches turned out to be completely made up, perjured evidence, 723 00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:57,080 Speaker 18: and that's always the problem with snitch evidence, So that's 724 00:34:57,200 --> 00:35:07,280 Speaker 18: usually obtained under difficult circumstances where often corrupt practices are present. Thirdly, 725 00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:11,279 Speaker 18: we had a police inquiry that was driven not by 726 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:14,400 Speaker 18: the evidence, but by finding a suspect and fitting the 727 00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:17,120 Speaker 18: evidence around them. Now, put those three things together and 728 00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:18,160 Speaker 18: you get a miscarriage. 729 00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:20,600 Speaker 3: Is one of those cases? Is this one of those 730 00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:23,200 Speaker 3: cases that there was a period in this country where 731 00:35:23,239 --> 00:35:25,960 Speaker 3: the police were dodgyes basically, And we've got a number 732 00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:27,840 Speaker 3: of cases now that have been plushed through the system 733 00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:29,080 Speaker 3: and shown that to be the case. 734 00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:36,800 Speaker 18: Seventeen and eighties where I had primary focused first on miscarriages. 735 00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:42,560 Speaker 18: It was a period where, particularly in high profile matters, 736 00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:46,560 Speaker 18: the police wanted to solve things, desperately wanted to have 737 00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:50,000 Speaker 18: a suspect, and then finding a suspect desperately wanted to 738 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:53,680 Speaker 18: fit the evidence around that suspect instead of having an 739 00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:56,400 Speaker 18: evidence lead inquiry. And there was so much of that 740 00:35:56,440 --> 00:35:59,920 Speaker 18: going on, too much of it going on through those decades, 741 00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:03,600 Speaker 18: seventies and eighties, and still we have some hangovers from 742 00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:07,920 Speaker 18: it in today's practices. We try to eliminate it, hopefully 743 00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:12,320 Speaker 18: we can, and we're left with this wash up thirty 744 00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:16,520 Speaker 18: forty years on of writing the wrongs that were done 745 00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:17,920 Speaker 18: in terms of those trials. 746 00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:20,399 Speaker 3: They can't retry this, can they? Realistically? 747 00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:27,000 Speaker 18: I would thought, realistically it won't happen. Attrition of memory 748 00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:33,240 Speaker 18: over time, attrition of light is over time. It's thirty 749 00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:36,680 Speaker 18: seven years on. Is there a public interest this man 750 00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:42,360 Speaker 18: has been in jail for twenty plus years. What's the 751 00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:49,120 Speaker 18: public interest? So one, evidential problems there, I've thought. Secondly 752 00:36:49,239 --> 00:36:53,040 Speaker 18: public interest Is it really in public interest? No, it's 753 00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:55,920 Speaker 18: my guess is it's unlikely to go to trial. 754 00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:58,160 Speaker 3: And the compo would be well done on a per 755 00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:00,840 Speaker 3: year calculation, like other compostmen done well. 756 00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:05,879 Speaker 18: That's if it happens. The conversation thing is a very 757 00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:11,560 Speaker 18: difficult process, Samma Hery. If there's no retrial, he's the 758 00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:14,960 Speaker 18: deemed to be innocent. He's the and if he's going 759 00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:18,879 Speaker 18: to get conversation, he's got to prove to the satisfaction 760 00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:20,879 Speaker 18: of the government of the day in the fact that 761 00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:25,320 Speaker 18: he was innocent. He's it's not, it's the other way around. 762 00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:27,759 Speaker 18: He's got to proof his innocence on the dance pub 763 00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:32,440 Speaker 18: disease and then this formulae thing that is in the 764 00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:33,240 Speaker 18: cabinet papers. 765 00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:34,960 Speaker 3: Right, I met, nice to talk to you, appreciate it 766 00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:37,600 Speaker 3: very much, Nigel Hampton case I'll come back. So there 767 00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:39,479 Speaker 3: will be many people listening to this program that don't 768 00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:41,919 Speaker 3: remember much of it's talking to Ryan. Ryan's thirty seven 769 00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:44,760 Speaker 3: years old. He was two years old when this case started. 770 00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:47,040 Speaker 3: So that's how long it's been going anyway more shortly 771 00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:49,160 Speaker 3: fourteen past the. 772 00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:53,680 Speaker 1: Like asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered by 773 00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:54,520 Speaker 1: News Talks. 774 00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:57,120 Speaker 3: That be right. Tom mcclay's back in the country, the 775 00:37:57,200 --> 00:37:59,279 Speaker 3: FDA and Labour's problems with it with India, will talk 776 00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:01,879 Speaker 3: about it truly. Seventeen past seven. Have you ever seen 777 00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:05,880 Speaker 3: more meddling and fiddling the government's housing intensification plan for Auckland. 778 00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:07,719 Speaker 3: It started at two million new homes, then it became 779 00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:09,400 Speaker 3: one point six and as I yesterday it's now one 780 00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:11,399 Speaker 3: point four. Has got clock up written all over it. 781 00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:13,680 Speaker 3: Hamish Firth is the director of the Mount Hobson Group, 782 00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:16,080 Speaker 3: an urban planning specialist and as with us, Hamish, good 783 00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:16,520 Speaker 3: morning to. 784 00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:18,200 Speaker 12: You, Bonnie Mike. 785 00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:20,200 Speaker 3: Is it about numbers or not? I mean, are they 786 00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:21,920 Speaker 3: just making up numbers and pulling them out of there 787 00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:22,520 Speaker 3: you know where? 788 00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:28,080 Speaker 12: You know, here's the feel of being being more numbers 789 00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:31,279 Speaker 12: than being going a Tuesday at the Cozi Club. This 790 00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:34,759 Speaker 12: is too important, This is far too important for us 791 00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:38,040 Speaker 12: to be meddling behind the scenes. You know, I can 792 00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:40,399 Speaker 12: see the people driving over the coimis the bomb bays 793 00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:42,960 Speaker 12: right now, their eyes glazing over. They do they don't 794 00:38:42,960 --> 00:38:44,920 Speaker 12: want this to be on the front page now. They 795 00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:46,719 Speaker 12: expect that the people in the room have got a 796 00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:49,839 Speaker 12: modicum of intelligence and when they launch a plan, it's 797 00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:53,040 Speaker 12: it's based on common sense, it's based on logic, and 798 00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:57,279 Speaker 12: it's going to work for Auckland. And quite frankly, this 799 00:38:57,320 --> 00:38:58,040 Speaker 12: is a shit show. 800 00:38:58,480 --> 00:39:01,040 Speaker 3: I can't believe. See Bishop, I don't know what your 801 00:39:01,040 --> 00:39:04,680 Speaker 3: politics are, but Bishop's a good operator. How's he copped 802 00:39:04,719 --> 00:39:05,680 Speaker 3: this up so badly? 803 00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:11,840 Speaker 12: Because this needs to be by Auckland for Auckland. Putting 804 00:39:11,880 --> 00:39:15,759 Speaker 12: a mandate on of two million homes was lunacy of 805 00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:19,279 Speaker 12: the highest order. From the very beginning. It has been 806 00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:23,600 Speaker 12: wrongly directed. My advice is of Auckland had the opportunity 807 00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:25,960 Speaker 12: to do this plan, change, to review the district plan, 808 00:39:26,040 --> 00:39:28,160 Speaker 12: to do what they meant to do, they wouldn't have 809 00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:30,320 Speaker 12: come up with a figure of two million, one point 810 00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:32,480 Speaker 12: six or one point four. They would have done it 811 00:39:32,560 --> 00:39:35,960 Speaker 12: in a much more measured, measured way. I have to 812 00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:38,560 Speaker 12: take you back to twenty twenty. The national policy stayed 813 00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:41,680 Speaker 12: in an urban development. Really simply, they said, within two 814 00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:45,520 Speaker 12: years you need to mandate effectively increases around town centers 815 00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:46,440 Speaker 12: and railway stations. 816 00:39:46,520 --> 00:39:47,160 Speaker 8: Quite simple. 817 00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:49,320 Speaker 12: Six years on and we have even achieved that. 818 00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:52,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, Hamish, appreciate your insight, like it like 819 00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:54,200 Speaker 3: the cannabis. Jim for our Homers, first director of the 820 00:39:54,200 --> 00:39:56,920 Speaker 3: Mount Hopson Group, urban planning specialist, Mike, with respect, you 821 00:39:56,920 --> 00:39:59,520 Speaker 3: were surprised that the Homu Strait vulnerability was overlooked by 822 00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:02,520 Speaker 3: the US. You cannot see our vulnerability of China as 823 00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:05,600 Speaker 3: a foothold in the Pacific Ian. You've missed the subtlety 824 00:40:05,600 --> 00:40:07,759 Speaker 3: of my argument. I've seen it many times before. I'm 825 00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:09,840 Speaker 3: very well aware of the Chinese presence in the Pacific. 826 00:40:10,200 --> 00:40:14,440 Speaker 3: But the Winston Peters line is friendship trump's checkbooks. My 827 00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:18,200 Speaker 3: argument is checkbooks trump friendship, and that has been proven 828 00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:21,120 Speaker 3: by the Chinese presence in the Pacific. So, in other words, 829 00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:23,040 Speaker 3: if you're looking to wander over to Mark Brown yet 830 00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:25,760 Speaker 3: again and go mate, come on, we've been friends forever. 831 00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:29,640 Speaker 3: The checkbook from China is going to beat that. So 832 00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:31,880 Speaker 3: reality versus theory is all I'm arguing. 833 00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:37,680 Speaker 1: Seven twenty The Mike Hosking Breakfast Full show podcast on 834 00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:40,440 Speaker 1: iHeartRadio gow it By News Talks Eppy. 835 00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:44,879 Speaker 3: Now, if you like value, and let's be honest, who doesn't, 836 00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:46,400 Speaker 3: For goodness sake, you're going to want to have a 837 00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:48,160 Speaker 3: look at the chemist warehouse and see what they got 838 00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:51,400 Speaker 3: on off of this month.

Steve is the Greens agriculture bloke, 858 00:41:45,520 --> 00:41:47,880 Speaker 3: and he wants an urgent inquiry into what he's heinz 859 00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:50,000 Speaker 3: Mess and Hawk's Bay. He's wasting his time, of course, 860 00:41:50,200 --> 00:41:52,080 Speaker 3: not because he shouldn't be concerned, because he should. We 861 00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:54,879 Speaker 3: should all be concerned. But the answers he seeks are 862 00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:58,279 Speaker 3: already readily available. He asks about four main things, the 863 00:41:58,320 --> 00:42:02,760 Speaker 3: regulatory environment, energy costs, foreign owner indifference, and anti competitive behavior. 864 00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:05,880 Speaker 3: From the supermarkets Well newsroom, as in the website, they 865 00:42:05,880 --> 00:42:07,760 Speaker 3: wrote a very solid piece about all of the several 866 00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:09,759 Speaker 3: weeks ago featured on the program, in which it was 867 00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:12,520 Speaker 3: broadly concluded the troubles in the bay have been coming 868 00:42:12,560 --> 00:42:15,520 Speaker 3: for basically a decade, so some late breaking alarmism from 869 00:42:15,520 --> 00:42:19,400 Speaker 3: Steve via yet another committee addresses nothing. Costs in this country, 870 00:42:19,440 --> 00:42:21,080 Speaker 3: of course, are too high, and I refer you to 871 00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:24,000 Speaker 3: Paul Conway's speech last week to a bunch of financial operators. 872 00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:27,840 Speaker 3: We are unproductive, have been for years. Supermarkets have indeed 873 00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:31,000 Speaker 3: played a part the home brand scenario, damaged the more 874 00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:34,600 Speaker 3: premium brands and what etc. Have suffered because of it. Now, 875 00:42:34,719 --> 00:42:38,719 Speaker 3: is that anti competitive or offering more competitions? See does 876 00:42:38,719 --> 00:42:41,080 Speaker 3: the pun to want choice and price range? I would 877 00:42:41,080 --> 00:42:44,920 Speaker 3: have argued yes, energy costs specifically, well, what Is and 878 00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:47,879 Speaker 3: Hindes have both spoken to this. They are ruinous gas 879 00:42:48,040 --> 00:42:50,239 Speaker 3: or lack of it has killed a lot of manufacturing 880 00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:52,480 Speaker 3: in this country. The Greens might like to ask themselves 881 00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:55,400 Speaker 3: why they got obsessed with solar panels and band gas 882 00:42:55,440 --> 00:42:58,000 Speaker 3: before there was enough solar panels to cover the energy gaps? 883 00:42:58,520 --> 00:43:01,360 Speaker 3: Are the old regulatory and vine Now that's an interesting 884 00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:05,000 Speaker 3: one because Labor and Nikola Willis have both jawboned rules 885 00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:08,280 Speaker 3: and REGs and watchdogs and ComCom investigations. But to what avail, 886 00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:11,440 Speaker 3: nothing has changed, which either means there is nothing to 887 00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:15,439 Speaker 3: change or they're useless foreign owner indifference. Now, I would 888 00:43:15,440 --> 00:43:18,919 Speaker 3: suggest that sounds a little bit xenophobic on Old Stevie's part. Yes, 889 00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:20,920 Speaker 3: I know what he means. Could be a massive player 890 00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:24,040 Speaker 3: in Detroit. Could they sit in Detroit cut ties without 891 00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:26,160 Speaker 3: losing sleep? And little old New Zealand at the bottom 892 00:43:26,160 --> 00:43:28,279 Speaker 3: of the world. Of course they could, but no one 893 00:43:28,320 --> 00:43:32,200 Speaker 3: invests and runs businesses or does it with indifference. They're 894 00:43:32,239 --> 00:43:36,280 Speaker 3: all invested now, between the dumping, the cheap stuff consumers prefer, 895 00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:39,400 Speaker 3: the size of our market, and the ruinous cost of energy. 896 00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:42,279 Speaker 3: You see, it's all there as a combustible recipe to 897 00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:45,120 Speaker 3: blow up a lot of business models. Peas in a bag, 898 00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:48,040 Speaker 3: Peaches in a tin is one of the victims. The 899 00:43:48,080 --> 00:43:53,160 Speaker 3: inquiry is not needed, husky Mike. Actually I should mention 900 00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:55,920 Speaker 3: silverfern pharma. See this is starting to hit the Middle 901 00:43:55,920 --> 00:43:58,440 Speaker 3: East thing silverfern farms which have gone to a profit. 902 00:43:59,040 --> 00:44:00,480 Speaker 3: And I might work through this so if I get 903 00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:02,720 Speaker 3: time later. But they've gone from two years of losses 904 00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:05,719 Speaker 3: to a profit, yay them, and very fine product and 905 00:44:05,719 --> 00:44:08,240 Speaker 3: all that sort of stuff. Anyway, they've suspended their exports 906 00:44:08,239 --> 00:44:09,839 Speaker 3: into the Gulf States at the moment, so we'll talk 907 00:44:09,840 --> 00:44:11,719 Speaker 3: to Todd about that in a moment, and the Trade 908 00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:14,480 Speaker 3: Minister's with us. Might I know we're all bored talking 909 00:44:14,520 --> 00:44:16,600 Speaker 3: about fuel prices. Well there's your first mistake, and I'm 910 00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:19,360 Speaker 3: not remotely bored. I love talking about fuel prices, but 911 00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:22,959 Speaker 3: I've just driven down Wyral Road, Glenfield. Did you drive 912 00:44:23,000 --> 00:44:25,480 Speaker 3: down Wyrail Road? I don't go to Wyral Road often 913 00:44:25,480 --> 00:44:27,600 Speaker 3: because mainly it doesn't move, so I don't know that 914 00:44:27,640 --> 00:44:29,440 Speaker 3: you drove down it, but you might have been there 915 00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:32,839 Speaker 3: for a while. Anyway. Diesel is now ten cents more 916 00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:35,520 Speaker 3: expensive than ninety one. How can this speed? Well, it's 917 00:44:35,600 --> 00:44:39,040 Speaker 3: very simple, Joe. The answer is it is an internationally 918 00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:42,600 Speaker 3: traded commodity oil as is refined petrol. Diesel is in 919 00:44:42,640 --> 00:44:45,120 Speaker 3: big demand because the people who broadly speaking use diesel 920 00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:48,960 Speaker 3: use a lot of it, and we have less diesel 921 00:44:49,239 --> 00:44:51,279 Speaker 3: then we have regular That's why I noted in christ 922 00:44:51,360 --> 00:44:53,560 Speaker 3: Church the other day that ninety eight is the same 923 00:44:53,560 --> 00:44:56,399 Speaker 3: as ninety five. Why because not many people use ninety eight, 924 00:44:56,719 --> 00:44:58,640 Speaker 3: so they need to discount the price of ninety eight 925 00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:00,719 Speaker 3: to get people to use it. Hence, they're putting the 926 00:45:00,719 --> 00:45:03,840 Speaker 3: price of diesel up because apply and demand. The demand 927 00:45:03,920 --> 00:45:06,879 Speaker 3: is up, therefore the price rises as well. So you'll 928 00:45:06,880 --> 00:45:09,640 Speaker 3: see more and more of this because as people with 929 00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:13,040 Speaker 3: regular petrol stop driving as much, that might well bring 930 00:45:13,080 --> 00:45:15,200 Speaker 3: the prices down because they need to shift the product. 931 00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:17,840 Speaker 3: But diesel won't go down because the people who use diesel, 932 00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:20,960 Speaker 3: have to use diesel because it's business related and they 933 00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:23,440 Speaker 3: don't want their business to be hit, hence the price 934 00:45:23,520 --> 00:45:27,760 Speaker 3: goes up. I hope that's simple enough for you. Todd McLay, 935 00:45:27,840 --> 00:45:30,640 Speaker 3: Trade Minister. Back in the country, this FTA with India, 936 00:45:30,719 --> 00:45:32,680 Speaker 3: Watt and Earth is going on. 937 00:45:33,640 --> 00:45:36,640 Speaker 2: No fluff, just facts and fierce debate. 938 00:45:36,840 --> 00:45:40,800 Speaker 1: The mic Hosking Breakfast with Bailey's real estate altogether better 939 00:45:40,840 --> 00:45:43,440 Speaker 1: across residential, commercial and rural use. 940 00:45:43,520 --> 00:45:45,120 Speaker 2: Togs dead me cards. 941 00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:47,759 Speaker 3: Ex twins they mark juiney after eight o'clock they do 942 00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:49,799 Speaker 3: you know?

So if you happen to watch it, 954 00:46:16,600 --> 00:46:19,080 Speaker 3: Just let me know what happened if there was anything gripping. Anyway, 955 00:46:19,080 --> 00:46:22,000 Speaker 3: back to business, the FDA with India. What's going on here? 956 00:46:22,040 --> 00:46:24,239 Speaker 3: The leader of the labor parties apparently finally written to 957 00:46:24,239 --> 00:46:27,440 Speaker 3: the Trade Minister where their various concerns. Basically the text 958 00:46:27,440 --> 00:46:30,040 Speaker 3: doesn't match the public utterances of the government is what 959 00:46:30,080 --> 00:46:32,760 Speaker 3: they're saying. But the government of course needs labours numbers 960 00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:35,040 Speaker 3: given New Zealand first doesn't want to bar of it either. Anyway, 961 00:46:35,040 --> 00:46:38,439 Speaker 3: The Trade Minister, Tom McLay is back with this good morning, Hey, 962 00:46:38,520 --> 00:46:42,040 Speaker 3: make come onic. The labor issues are what specifically and 963 00:46:42,120 --> 00:46:43,000 Speaker 3: are they material? 964 00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:47,680 Speaker 19: Well to second letter that mister Hopkins is sent to us, 965 00:46:47,719 --> 00:46:51,160 Speaker 19: and they are similar to the first time we've had 966 00:46:51,200 --> 00:46:52,800 Speaker 19: a formal meeting where I went through it or with 967 00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:57,800 Speaker 19: negotiators with Chrissy there. Plus is there spokesman Damon O'Connor. 968 00:46:57,840 --> 00:47:00,640 Speaker 19: There's been a lot of engagement and so on. Look, 969 00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:03,640 Speaker 19: I've had Damien O'Connor with me off at the Double 970 00:47:03,680 --> 00:47:06,919 Speaker 19: German's draw meeting down and Cameroon. Because trade is meant 971 00:47:06,960 --> 00:47:09,439 Speaker 19: to be bipartisan, We've been going through it a lot. 972 00:47:10,120 --> 00:47:12,160 Speaker 19: There's a formal meeting I've set up for them again 973 00:47:12,320 --> 00:47:15,200 Speaker 19: with other negotiators and the experts to talk it through. 974 00:47:15,320 --> 00:47:16,040 Speaker 7: And we'll see. 975 00:47:16,120 --> 00:47:19,239 Speaker 19: But I don't see anything material in what they are 976 00:47:19,320 --> 00:47:21,960 Speaker 19: raising other than missing the point. It's one point four 977 00:47:22,000 --> 00:47:24,840 Speaker 19: billion people and every other country of the world would 978 00:47:24,840 --> 00:47:25,960 Speaker 19: like the trade deal we've got. 979 00:47:26,280 --> 00:47:29,680 Speaker 3: Is Damien on the same page as Chris. 980 00:47:30,440 --> 00:47:30,800 Speaker 8: Well. 981 00:47:31,440 --> 00:47:34,520 Speaker 19: So Damien knows a lot about trade negotiation. He's done 982 00:47:34,520 --> 00:47:36,799 Speaker 19: a couple of deals. He did the EU one. He's 983 00:47:36,920 --> 00:47:41,000 Speaker 19: very experienced. He's in a space where they want to 984 00:47:41,000 --> 00:47:43,560 Speaker 19: know a little bit more. But I think he probably 985 00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:46,960 Speaker 19: sees the benefits of the agreement first rather than some 986 00:47:47,040 --> 00:47:49,680 Speaker 19: of the small technical detail they're going through now. 987 00:47:49,680 --> 00:47:51,759 Speaker 7: But look, we're going to be We're going to do 988 00:47:51,840 --> 00:47:52,520 Speaker 7: this in good faith. 989 00:47:52,680 --> 00:47:54,440 Speaker 19: As I said, there's a formal meeting I've set up 990 00:47:54,440 --> 00:47:56,160 Speaker 19: for them tomorrow as long as they know they can 991 00:47:56,160 --> 00:47:59,000 Speaker 19: look at the advice that we've got and go through it. 992 00:47:59,080 --> 00:48:01,160 Speaker 19: But it's really straight forward. They need to come to 993 00:48:01,160 --> 00:48:04,120 Speaker 19: a point of making a decision pretty certain. The legal 994 00:48:04,160 --> 00:48:07,760 Speaker 19: scrubbing is almost finished. We then have to sign the agreement. 995 00:48:08,400 --> 00:48:12,359 Speaker 19: Parliament then scrutinizes it fully and gives a report back 996 00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:14,200 Speaker 19: and then we you know, then we have a vote 997 00:48:14,239 --> 00:48:16,840 Speaker 19: on the legislation later on I will be lucky to 998 00:48:16,840 --> 00:48:19,160 Speaker 19: sign it, put it in parliament. So every New Zealand 999 00:48:19,160 --> 00:48:22,160 Speaker 19: and all of Parliament, can you know, ask the questions 1000 00:48:22,200 --> 00:48:25,200 Speaker 19: and go through it, not just mister Hopkins in closing right, So. 1001 00:48:25,200 --> 00:48:27,800 Speaker 3: It will be signed and it will go to parliament. 1002 00:48:29,120 --> 00:48:32,040 Speaker 3: Would you do that willingly without having the numbers and 1003 00:48:32,160 --> 00:48:32,759 Speaker 3: knowing you. 1004 00:48:32,680 --> 00:48:38,160 Speaker 19: Have the numbers, well, well, the legislation to an actor 1005 00:48:38,320 --> 00:48:40,399 Speaker 19: is much further down the track. It's not the first part. 1006 00:48:40,440 --> 00:48:42,239 Speaker 19: So the first part is of the trade agreement you 1007 00:48:42,280 --> 00:48:44,920 Speaker 19: negotiating conclude. So so they're give you an example with 1008 00:48:45,080 --> 00:48:48,680 Speaker 19: the CPTPP, which Labor in the end did because the 1009 00:48:50,560 --> 00:48:53,520 Speaker 19: government change. They didn't have the numbers, because the Greens 1010 00:48:53,520 --> 00:48:55,440 Speaker 19: wouldn't support it. They signed it, they put it in 1011 00:48:55,520 --> 00:48:59,160 Speaker 19: parliament and it's called you know, has the first scrutiny. 1012 00:48:59,200 --> 00:49:01,160 Speaker 7: So it's the the agreement, the table. 1013 00:49:01,200 --> 00:49:03,239 Speaker 19: It goes off to a committee, people submit, they go 1014 00:49:03,360 --> 00:49:05,040 Speaker 19: through it, they have their say on it, a take 1015 00:49:05,120 --> 00:49:07,719 Speaker 19: some period of time, comes back with a report. Then 1016 00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:09,960 Speaker 19: there afterwards you make the case for where you want 1017 00:49:09,960 --> 00:49:12,000 Speaker 19: to get your numbers. Labor came to us and we 1018 00:49:12,040 --> 00:49:14,200 Speaker 19: gave them support for it back then. So this isn't 1019 00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:17,400 Speaker 19: unheard of, unprecedented, but Mike's the high quality there one 1020 00:49:17,440 --> 00:49:20,600 Speaker 19: point four billion people. It is important Parliament gets to 1021 00:49:20,600 --> 00:49:24,399 Speaker 19: scrutinize it, not just individual party's closed door. 1022 00:49:24,600 --> 00:49:26,680 Speaker 3: Okay, a couple of other things while i've got your 1023 00:49:26,680 --> 00:49:30,120 Speaker 3: silverfern farms have announced their suspending trade up into the Gulf. 1024 00:49:30,200 --> 00:49:34,200 Speaker 3: Is this going to become a thing, well, it is concerning. 1025 00:49:34,239 --> 00:49:37,040 Speaker 19: I was talking to the UA Trade minister just today 1026 00:49:37,120 --> 00:49:39,520 Speaker 19: or so a guy, so I met with Saudi minister stuff. 1027 00:49:39,560 --> 00:49:41,160 Speaker 7: You know, I've just been off to the Double GM 1028 00:49:41,239 --> 00:49:41,560 Speaker 7: meeting with. 1029 00:49:41,640 --> 00:49:46,160 Speaker 19: Cameroon and ultimately they're working through their logistics and how 1030 00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:47,719 Speaker 19: they get stuff in and out, and so I think 1031 00:49:47,760 --> 00:49:50,160 Speaker 19: for silfern farms it wasn't a large part of their 1032 00:49:50,160 --> 00:49:52,880 Speaker 19: trade and probably they're saying the costs making their product 1033 00:49:52,920 --> 00:49:57,319 Speaker 19: and prohibitive there. What I heard from the UI Trade 1034 00:49:57,360 --> 00:49:59,799 Speaker 19: Minister is they are working on logistics to make sure 1035 00:50:00,280 --> 00:50:03,480 Speaker 19: God's moved freely. The challenges are set as costs and 1036 00:50:03,520 --> 00:50:05,040 Speaker 19: they're working on that too. But it's going to be 1037 00:50:05,040 --> 00:50:06,279 Speaker 19: with us for a while, so I don't think we're 1038 00:50:06,280 --> 00:50:09,160 Speaker 19: going to see this widespread. But obviously silver firms have 1039 00:50:09,280 --> 00:50:11,719 Speaker 19: just decided that, you know, the cost don't work for 1040 00:50:11,760 --> 00:50:12,920 Speaker 19: them just at the moment, right. 1041 00:50:12,800 --> 00:50:14,880 Speaker 3: The wto I read a piece the other day that 1042 00:50:14,880 --> 00:50:16,719 Speaker 3: I never thought i'd get to ask anyone about, but 1043 00:50:16,760 --> 00:50:19,400 Speaker 3: it turns out you're the man. So the thing with 1044 00:50:19,480 --> 00:50:23,200 Speaker 3: the US and India and extensions and America wants a 1045 00:50:23,239 --> 00:50:26,160 Speaker 3: longer extension and India wants a shorter extension, and there 1046 00:50:26,200 --> 00:50:29,000 Speaker 3: was a standoff. One do you know what I'm talking about? 1047 00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:31,320 Speaker 3: And two is that material? And three is it getting sorted? 1048 00:50:32,040 --> 00:50:34,839 Speaker 7: So that's over e commerce. So it's an e commerce miratorium. 1049 00:50:34,840 --> 00:50:37,480 Speaker 19: Two years ago I was the negotiator and we got 1050 00:50:37,520 --> 00:50:39,600 Speaker 19: it extended. What this means in countries in the world, 1051 00:50:39,680 --> 00:50:43,160 Speaker 19: so they won't put tariffs on on e commerce. America 1052 00:50:43,200 --> 00:50:46,960 Speaker 19: wants it to be permanent moratorium, as I do, and 1053 00:50:46,960 --> 00:50:49,960 Speaker 19: it is going to support them. India actually was in 1054 00:50:50,000 --> 00:50:52,120 Speaker 19: the same space. They moved a long way or willing to. 1055 00:50:52,440 --> 00:50:54,120 Speaker 19: In the end, it was a couple of other countries 1056 00:50:54,160 --> 00:50:56,960 Speaker 19: I think Turkey and Brazil that blocked. 1057 00:50:57,080 --> 00:50:59,799 Speaker 7: Is deeply disappointing. Yes, it will be worked out over. 1058 00:51:00,200 --> 00:51:03,080 Speaker 19: I've signed a declaration with the US as many other 1059 00:51:03,120 --> 00:51:05,640 Speaker 19: countries have saying we take the commitment not to do 1060 00:51:05,719 --> 00:51:08,000 Speaker 19: these sorts of things, we won't put the tariffs in place. 1061 00:51:08,320 --> 00:51:11,760 Speaker 19: It will get worked out. But fundamentally that's a problem 1062 00:51:11,760 --> 00:51:14,480 Speaker 19: with the WGO. It's a consensus organization, and one or 1063 00:51:14,480 --> 00:51:17,520 Speaker 19: two countries can hold your hostage. And so it's going 1064 00:51:17,600 --> 00:51:19,759 Speaker 19: to take a real shake up because a lot of 1065 00:51:19,800 --> 00:51:23,080 Speaker 19: countries have becoming frustrated with the lack of progress there. 1066 00:51:23,280 --> 00:51:26,000 Speaker 3: Actually, while I've got you, I'm enjoying this, are you 1067 00:51:26,120 --> 00:51:28,880 Speaker 3: coordinating in any way the New Zealand companies who are 1068 00:51:28,880 --> 00:51:32,080 Speaker 3: looking to sue the Americans for refunds on tariffs. 1069 00:51:32,760 --> 00:51:37,600 Speaker 19: No, I'm certainly not coordinating, and ultimately a number of 1070 00:51:37,640 --> 00:51:39,839 Speaker 19: them are looking at themselves. The advice we're given to 1071 00:51:39,880 --> 00:51:42,520 Speaker 19: them is get some advice. But I think this is 1072 00:51:42,520 --> 00:51:44,440 Speaker 19: going to get sorted out by the US courts. 1073 00:51:44,760 --> 00:51:45,440 Speaker 7: Quite honestly. 1074 00:51:46,160 --> 00:51:48,280 Speaker 19: I think what will happen is a couple of other companies, 1075 00:51:48,320 --> 00:51:52,800 Speaker 19: including US companies, will take court action against the US 1076 00:51:52,840 --> 00:51:55,400 Speaker 19: and the courts will decide. And so in the meantime, 1077 00:51:56,280 --> 00:51:58,399 Speaker 19: our trade is still going up with them. We're still 1078 00:51:58,400 --> 00:52:00,400 Speaker 19: trading on In fact, we're sort of four percent increase 1079 00:52:00,440 --> 00:52:02,400 Speaker 19: over the even with the tariff, but back down to 1080 00:52:02,400 --> 00:52:05,360 Speaker 19: ten percent. I met with Jamison Greer, who's there, you know, 1081 00:52:05,440 --> 00:52:07,319 Speaker 19: my equivalent over there, and we talked a little bit 1082 00:52:07,320 --> 00:52:09,640 Speaker 19: about it. Told them some things are doing that you 1083 00:52:09,680 --> 00:52:12,040 Speaker 19: know they shouldn't be. For New Zealand, I e. I 1084 00:52:12,040 --> 00:52:14,440 Speaker 19: think there's going to be an investigation into lamb exports 1085 00:52:14,480 --> 00:52:17,280 Speaker 19: there Australia. New Zealand, we might see a higher tariff 1086 00:52:17,320 --> 00:52:19,240 Speaker 19: and so on. Have made the case that they shouldn't 1087 00:52:19,239 --> 00:52:21,760 Speaker 19: be doing that. So we're working through all those sorts 1088 00:52:21,800 --> 00:52:24,480 Speaker 19: of things. But ultimately I reckon that there's going to 1089 00:52:24,480 --> 00:52:26,839 Speaker 19: be a lot of litigation in the US around those 1090 00:52:26,880 --> 00:52:30,880 Speaker 19: tariffs before it's paid back, and for some of our exporters, 1091 00:52:30,960 --> 00:52:32,719 Speaker 19: they'll want to sit back and see where it goes 1092 00:52:32,760 --> 00:52:34,080 Speaker 19: before they take that big. 1093 00:52:33,920 --> 00:52:35,880 Speaker 7: Step to spend a lot of money on lawyers. 1094 00:52:35,880 --> 00:52:39,120 Speaker 3: With the uncertainty where's that when's that investigation on lamb coming? 1095 00:52:39,719 --> 00:52:42,439 Speaker 19: So I suspect they'll start it in the next month 1096 00:52:42,560 --> 00:52:44,719 Speaker 19: or so. It's not a fast process. It's a little 1097 00:52:44,719 --> 00:52:46,600 Speaker 19: bit like we've said, they did went into wood products 1098 00:52:46,640 --> 00:52:49,440 Speaker 19: from all around the world and that came out as 1099 00:52:49,520 --> 00:52:53,160 Speaker 19: the ten percent tariff. Ultimately Australia New Zealand said a 1100 00:52:53,200 --> 00:52:56,000 Speaker 19: lot more lamb into that market than the US producers, 1101 00:52:56,440 --> 00:52:58,680 Speaker 19: and so politically having a look at it, I think 1102 00:52:58,719 --> 00:53:00,680 Speaker 19: they're going to see them do this a lot though. 1103 00:53:00,800 --> 00:53:03,440 Speaker 19: So for instance, we know that that they you know, 1104 00:53:03,480 --> 00:53:05,680 Speaker 19: the ten percent tariff in place now after the court 1105 00:53:06,239 --> 00:53:08,800 Speaker 19: ruling is only there for one hundred and fifty days, 1106 00:53:09,040 --> 00:53:10,880 Speaker 19: so they're looking at other ways to put that tariff 1107 00:53:11,040 --> 00:53:12,680 Speaker 19: wall back up, and I think we'll see a lot 1108 00:53:12,719 --> 00:53:16,560 Speaker 19: of investigations over this sort of thing many countries in 1109 00:53:16,560 --> 00:53:18,480 Speaker 19: the world, and that they'll find another way to put 1110 00:53:18,480 --> 00:53:21,840 Speaker 19: the ten or fifteen cent back on. Frustrating and annoying, 1111 00:53:22,280 --> 00:53:25,000 Speaker 19: but you know, stepping away from that, importantly, we're selling 1112 00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:27,200 Speaker 19: them more now than we're before they put tariff's up, 1113 00:53:27,200 --> 00:53:28,920 Speaker 19: which makes it a bit hard to make the case 1114 00:53:28,960 --> 00:53:30,200 Speaker 19: of the harm the tariffs are doing. 1115 00:53:30,600 --> 00:53:33,280 Speaker 7: Just does mean that, you know, yours consumers are paying more. 1116 00:53:33,280 --> 00:53:35,239 Speaker 3: Good stuff, all right, make nice to catch up. Appreciate it. 1117 00:53:35,239 --> 00:53:37,920 Speaker 3: Tom mclach, thank you Trade minister back from Cameroon. That 1118 00:53:38,080 --> 00:53:41,480 Speaker 3: reference to silver ferns, he was right, it's worrying. They 1119 00:53:41,520 --> 00:53:43,040 Speaker 3: had a whole bunk. They had one hundred and forty 1120 00:53:43,040 --> 00:53:45,360 Speaker 3: containers when the war broke out in that part of 1121 00:53:45,400 --> 00:53:48,080 Speaker 3: the world, and it's kind of a time for them 1122 00:53:48,080 --> 00:53:50,880 Speaker 3: when they're back in profitability and they have been losing money, 1123 00:53:50,920 --> 00:53:52,600 Speaker 3: so it's good. Most of the containers were able to 1124 00:53:52,600 --> 00:53:54,879 Speaker 3: be moved through other ports, so that's the encouraging bit. 1125 00:53:54,960 --> 00:53:58,319 Speaker 3: So they're agile, but it had pause production into the 1126 00:53:58,320 --> 00:54:01,560 Speaker 3: Middle East until they got But what have they got? 1127 00:54:01,560 --> 00:54:04,719 Speaker 3: Twelve percent of their lamb and five percent of their 1128 00:54:04,719 --> 00:54:07,120 Speaker 3: beef goes up to the Gulf State. So it's not 1129 00:54:07,160 --> 00:54:09,880 Speaker 3: what you want. But equally, as Tobas say, it's not 1130 00:54:09,880 --> 00:54:11,800 Speaker 3: the end of the world either. Seven forty five. 1131 00:54:13,280 --> 00:54:17,760 Speaker 1: The Vice Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio, Howard 1132 00:54:17,800 --> 00:54:18,799 Speaker 1: By News Talks, it'd be. 1133 00:54:19,760 --> 00:54:23,040 Speaker 3: Mike Mepkins and labor. Unbelievable countries broke. They're looking to 1134 00:54:23,080 --> 00:54:25,560 Speaker 3: derail potentially our biggest FTA with India. I don't think 1135 00:54:25,560 --> 00:54:28,560 Speaker 3: it's the biggestd FTA with India. It's China will be bigger. 1136 00:54:28,600 --> 00:54:30,680 Speaker 3: But I take your point. I don't know that they're 1137 00:54:30,680 --> 00:54:32,799 Speaker 3: actually looking to derail it. I think the key question 1138 00:54:32,960 --> 00:54:35,640 Speaker 3: in that interview was is Damien and Chris on the 1139 00:54:35,719 --> 00:54:38,240 Speaker 3: same page And it wasn't a pause, have been a turmoil, 1140 00:54:38,320 --> 00:54:40,600 Speaker 3: but it was one of those ah yes, that was 1141 00:54:40,640 --> 00:54:43,120 Speaker 3: the question to ask. And of course Damien gets that. 1142 00:54:43,239 --> 00:54:46,560 Speaker 3: Chris doesn't. Chris probably doesn't even remember being at the meeting. 1143 00:54:47,200 --> 00:54:48,839 Speaker 3: He probably had the paper right in front of him. 1144 00:54:48,880 --> 00:54:50,399 Speaker 3: And if you ask him now you remember the meeting 1145 00:54:50,440 --> 00:54:52,200 Speaker 3: with the FTA in India, he goes, nat, never saw it, 1146 00:54:52,280 --> 00:54:55,040 Speaker 3: never got to me. I blame the Ministry of Health. Wow, 1147 00:54:55,120 --> 00:54:59,680 Speaker 3: Todd's very impressive year is very good. Todd McLay sys 1148 00:54:59,719 --> 00:55:02,320 Speaker 3: Warren and told us nothing substantably new about the progress 1149 00:55:02,360 --> 00:55:04,239 Speaker 3: with the FTA with India other than to wrap it 1150 00:55:04,320 --> 00:55:06,359 Speaker 3: on about a whole lot of procedural detail. Well, Warren, 1151 00:55:06,400 --> 00:55:08,000 Speaker 3: I don't know what interview you were listening to, but 1152 00:55:08,719 --> 00:55:11,920 Speaker 3: what he said, the context is everything, and subtlety is 1153 00:55:12,120 --> 00:55:14,759 Speaker 3: equally a skill. Is what he said is they will 1154 00:55:14,800 --> 00:55:17,520 Speaker 3: eventually come to the party and there's nothing substantive that 1155 00:55:17,719 --> 00:55:19,960 Speaker 3: is going to ultimately hold it up. This is political 1156 00:55:20,040 --> 00:55:25,000 Speaker 3: game playing. From LinkedIn this morning. Now, don't often don't 1157 00:55:25,040 --> 00:55:29,480 Speaker 3: often quote LinkedIn. Michael writes, I had a fantastic lunch today, 1158 00:55:30,440 --> 00:55:32,840 Speaker 3: so he wrote this on Friday, then zed me in 1159 00:55:32,880 --> 00:55:35,640 Speaker 3: a group of like minded business professionals hosted by Mike Hosking. 1160 00:55:35,680 --> 00:55:38,759 Speaker 3: It was live interview with Nikola Grigg, Minister for Saint 1161 00:55:38,800 --> 00:55:41,120 Speaker 3: Trade and Investment, Blah Blah Blah, Lee and Watson Business 1162 00:55:41,200 --> 00:55:44,480 Speaker 3: Canterbury and Adam Hazelwood Bailey's real Estate. The commentary from 1163 00:55:44,480 --> 00:55:47,160 Speaker 3: all the panel was very insightful, relatively positive in general, 1164 00:55:47,200 --> 00:55:49,440 Speaker 3: despite global events causing a disruption to what has been 1165 00:55:49,440 --> 00:55:51,120 Speaker 3: a very good growth phased in New Zealand over the 1166 00:55:51,160 --> 00:55:54,640 Speaker 3: past twenty four months. The discussion dove into the economic outlook, 1167 00:55:54,680 --> 00:55:57,080 Speaker 3: the business confidence and the growth expectancy in the region 1168 00:55:57,360 --> 00:56:01,520 Speaker 3: and it was such a great reminder how amazing we 1169 00:56:01,640 --> 00:56:04,000 Speaker 3: have it here in christ Church, the city. We have 1170 00:56:04,200 --> 00:56:07,760 Speaker 3: rebuilt the infrastructure and services, the events and world class 1171 00:56:07,840 --> 00:56:11,920 Speaker 3: facilities that are attracting people to our beautiful city. So 1172 00:56:12,280 --> 00:56:15,000 Speaker 3: good to get some good feedback on that. Let me 1173 00:56:15,080 --> 00:56:16,799 Speaker 3: come back in just a couple of moments as small 1174 00:56:16,840 --> 00:56:18,680 Speaker 3: I told you so moment, not that there was any 1175 00:56:18,719 --> 00:56:21,759 Speaker 3: genius in calling it, but when Australia started the social 1176 00:56:21,840 --> 00:56:23,880 Speaker 3: media thing, one of the things I argued was it 1177 00:56:23,920 --> 00:56:27,360 Speaker 3: wouldn't work. And guess what first report out. It isn't 1178 00:56:27,640 --> 00:56:28,360 Speaker 3: tend to wait. 1179 00:56:29,080 --> 00:56:32,520 Speaker 1: The make Hosking, Breakfast with rainthrow of a sport, SV 1180 00:56:32,760 --> 00:56:33,720 Speaker 1: News togs eDV. 1181 00:56:33,800 --> 00:56:35,960 Speaker 3: Quick question, how is it that we struggle in this 1182 00:56:36,080 --> 00:56:39,040 Speaker 3: country to get rid of the surcharge on the credit 1183 00:56:39,120 --> 00:56:41,160 Speaker 3: cards that tap and go at the dairies. We put 1184 00:56:41,239 --> 00:56:43,200 Speaker 3: the legislation ford and that fell into a thing the 1185 00:56:43,280 --> 00:56:45,520 Speaker 3: other day with New Zealand First and act in the 1186 00:56:45,640 --> 00:56:48,200 Speaker 3: National Party all on different sides, and that seems to 1187 00:56:48,239 --> 00:56:50,439 Speaker 3: be dead in the water, despite the fact the National 1188 00:56:50,480 --> 00:56:52,440 Speaker 3: Party is saying maybe it is, maybe it isn't. And 1189 00:56:52,520 --> 00:56:55,600 Speaker 3: yet yesterday the RB comes out and backed by the 1190 00:56:55,680 --> 00:56:57,600 Speaker 3: government and they're going to get rid of them. That end, 1191 00:56:57,719 --> 00:56:59,520 Speaker 3: the beginning, the middle, in the end. How come they 1192 00:56:59,560 --> 00:57:02,319 Speaker 3: can do it like that, but we seem to want 1193 00:57:02,320 --> 00:57:06,279 Speaker 3: to spend months on and wandering around arguing with each other. 1194 00:57:06,400 --> 00:57:10,440 Speaker 3: Is that a productivity question? Right to the e Safety 1195 00:57:10,520 --> 00:57:12,440 Speaker 3: Commissioner's first report in Australia. 1196 00:57:12,840 --> 00:57:13,360 Speaker 12: So was it? 1197 00:57:13,600 --> 00:57:15,280 Speaker 3: And I was reading this week and I can't remember 1198 00:57:15,320 --> 00:57:17,520 Speaker 3: where it was. Was it Denmark who were the latest 1199 00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:20,800 Speaker 3: one of those European countries. I mean, it's become a thing. 1200 00:57:20,920 --> 00:57:25,000 Speaker 3: So they decided to ban kids on social media. Now 1201 00:57:25,120 --> 00:57:27,400 Speaker 3: as much of us as parents would think that's a 1202 00:57:27,520 --> 00:57:31,040 Speaker 3: fabulous idea and something should be done about it. It 1203 00:57:31,200 --> 00:57:32,720 Speaker 3: was never going to work, and it was never going 1204 00:57:32,800 --> 00:57:35,960 Speaker 3: to work for obvious reasons. One the technology doesn't really 1205 00:57:36,080 --> 00:57:38,680 Speaker 3: exist to the point of our satisfaction, and two kids 1206 00:57:38,720 --> 00:57:41,400 Speaker 3: don't want it. Like it or not, kids don't want it. 1207 00:57:42,200 --> 00:57:45,520 Speaker 3: So Australia started it, and in fact, of all the 1208 00:57:45,640 --> 00:57:47,920 Speaker 3: things the countries that have done something about it, I 1209 00:57:48,040 --> 00:57:51,840 Speaker 3: would personally argue we're still as usual mucking around looking 1210 00:57:51,920 --> 00:57:54,040 Speaker 3: at it, saying we're going to do something eventually, but 1211 00:57:54,240 --> 00:57:57,440 Speaker 3: going nowhere fast. Britain seems to be the best model 1212 00:57:57,600 --> 00:57:59,720 Speaker 3: instead of just leaping in like the French or the 1213 00:57:59,800 --> 00:58:02,440 Speaker 3: Danes or the Australians and any of that, and just 1214 00:58:02,600 --> 00:58:04,520 Speaker 3: doing it with a bit of legislation that won't work. 1215 00:58:05,080 --> 00:58:09,040 Speaker 3: The poems are at least having a controlled study with 1216 00:58:09,240 --> 00:58:12,920 Speaker 3: several hundred kids, some of whom will have no social media, 1217 00:58:13,000 --> 00:58:15,200 Speaker 3: some of whom will have some social media, some of 1218 00:58:15,240 --> 00:58:17,680 Speaker 3: whom will just carry on as normal. Then the kids 1219 00:58:17,720 --> 00:58:19,400 Speaker 3: and the parents will be talked to and they'll work 1220 00:58:19,480 --> 00:58:21,440 Speaker 3: something out from that point. Because they put it to 1221 00:58:21,520 --> 00:58:24,400 Speaker 3: a vote in the Parliament and it got voted down, 1222 00:58:25,120 --> 00:58:27,680 Speaker 3: which I thought was interesting. So anyway, back in Australia 1223 00:58:27,720 --> 00:58:32,360 Speaker 3: where they began all of this nonsense, the reports out 1224 00:58:32,520 --> 00:58:36,880 Speaker 3: yesterday are Julie Inman Grant. There are quote unquote significant 1225 00:58:36,920 --> 00:58:39,040 Speaker 3: concerns Julian and Grant. By the way, was the woman 1226 00:58:39,160 --> 00:58:42,600 Speaker 3: the US were after, remember the congressional hearing people they 1227 00:58:42,680 --> 00:58:44,960 Speaker 3: were wanting to. They accused her of being anti American, 1228 00:58:45,360 --> 00:58:47,960 Speaker 3: an anti democratic, and she had X number of days 1229 00:58:48,000 --> 00:58:49,600 Speaker 3: to front up to America and I don't even know 1230 00:58:49,720 --> 00:58:51,680 Speaker 3: she ever did, to be perfectly honest. But anyway, next 1231 00:58:51,720 --> 00:58:53,280 Speaker 3: time I talk to Steve, which is later on this morning, 1232 00:58:53,280 --> 00:58:55,600 Speaker 3: I'm going to ask him that, anyway, where was I 1233 00:58:56,320 --> 00:58:59,600 Speaker 3: Social media platforms have taken some initial action in her 1234 00:58:59,680 --> 00:59:03,440 Speaker 3: initial report, but E Safety is shifting towards an enforcement 1235 00:59:03,520 --> 00:59:06,680 Speaker 3: stance which may see these tech giants and the people 1236 00:59:06,720 --> 00:59:09,600 Speaker 3: we're dealing with, of course, our TikTok, Facebook, Instagram, snapchap 1237 00:59:09,640 --> 00:59:13,200 Speaker 3: and YouTube shifting towards this enforcement which may see them 1238 00:59:13,240 --> 00:59:15,000 Speaker 3: in court basically with fines up to forty nine and 1239 00:59:15,000 --> 00:59:18,760 Speaker 3: a half million dollars for non compliance. Some initial progress 1240 00:59:18,800 --> 00:59:20,840 Speaker 3: in the first three months of the band, but they 1241 00:59:20,960 --> 00:59:24,520 Speaker 3: haven't kept pace. Now could we safely say then and 1242 00:59:24,840 --> 00:59:28,040 Speaker 3: now that this was always going to happen. Is social 1243 00:59:28,160 --> 00:59:30,720 Speaker 3: media in the business in countries at the bottom of 1244 00:59:30,760 --> 00:59:35,920 Speaker 3: the world remotely interested in not having kids on their platform? Answer? No, 1245 00:59:37,800 --> 00:59:39,320 Speaker 3: so that's and do you think it's ever going to 1246 00:59:39,440 --> 00:59:41,640 Speaker 3: end up in court? Possibly? Do you think anyone's ever 1247 00:59:41,720 --> 00:59:43,920 Speaker 3: going to get fined? Possibly? Do you think any of 1248 00:59:43,960 --> 00:59:45,840 Speaker 3: that's ever going to make any material difference to the 1249 00:59:45,920 --> 00:59:47,080 Speaker 3: kids growing up in Australia? 1250 00:59:47,320 --> 00:59:47,360 Speaker 7: No? 1251 00:59:48,640 --> 00:59:51,520 Speaker 3: So do you sit there with what do you say 1252 00:59:51,560 --> 00:59:53,560 Speaker 3: that's a success? It's a bit of legislation that does 1253 00:59:53,600 --> 00:59:55,560 Speaker 3: something that's not affected. Is that a success? It's the 1254 00:59:55,640 --> 00:59:58,280 Speaker 3: weirdest thing in the world, isn't it? Politics? Wednesday?

The police dogs we have, 1312 01:03:04,000 --> 01:03:06,640 Speaker 8: they've got body armor and they've now got a very 1313 01:03:06,680 --> 01:03:11,120 Speaker 8: powerful directional speaker that they can attach the body armor, 1314 01:03:11,160 --> 01:03:14,520 Speaker 8: which means that the dog handle can actually give instructions 1315 01:03:14,560 --> 01:03:17,720 Speaker 8: remotely to both the dog and an offender that's been 1316 01:03:17,800 --> 01:03:22,160 Speaker 8: caught and the trial they've been trial. Yeah, and they've 1317 01:03:22,200 --> 01:03:25,480 Speaker 8: tried it and they've said that what what what it's 1318 01:03:25,560 --> 01:03:28,000 Speaker 8: done unintentionally? Is it like someone under the influence of 1319 01:03:28,040 --> 01:03:31,080 Speaker 8: drugs or alcohol actually think the dog's talking to them 1320 01:03:31,720 --> 01:03:36,840 Speaker 8: and probably become confused. They'll become compliant, they are try 1321 01:03:36,880 --> 01:03:38,240 Speaker 8: to engage conversation. 1322 01:03:39,520 --> 01:03:40,600 Speaker 17: Did they did someone? 1323 01:03:40,960 --> 01:03:52,680 Speaker 3: They got there?

It's really effective. 1326 01:04:03,640 --> 01:04:05,520 Speaker 8: It means that if it's raining, the handles can stay 1327 01:04:05,560 --> 01:04:06,880 Speaker 8: in the vehicle, they don't have to get out. 1328 01:04:07,840 --> 01:04:09,680 Speaker 20: We could do with that and maybe the speaker in 1329 01:04:09,760 --> 01:04:11,920 Speaker 20: Parliament could have some of the gears that would like 1330 01:04:12,040 --> 01:04:12,400 Speaker 20: kind of help. 1331 01:04:12,520 --> 01:04:16,440 Speaker 3: Question time run it's good?

Apparently I've been ringing him and he 1344 01:04:52,680 --> 01:04:56,120 Speaker 3: just will not answer his phone. And I mean time, 1345 01:04:56,200 --> 01:04:58,320 Speaker 3: what times the labor party start?

So maybe 1348 01:05:02,720 --> 01:05:04,800 Speaker 20: that's the reason why he runs the warning. Maybe that's 1349 01:05:04,840 --> 01:05:05,440 Speaker 20: happening about it. 1350 01:05:07,440 --> 01:05:08,160 Speaker 8: It's the problem. 1351 01:05:08,400 --> 01:05:11,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, he got along silent or something.

Are you up with this Mark 1357 01:05:21,320 --> 01:05:22,520 Speaker 3: Mcinaughty's alcohol bill? 1358 01:05:23,640 --> 01:05:23,840 Speaker 7: Yeah? 1359 01:05:24,200 --> 01:05:24,320 Speaker 12: Right? 1360 01:05:24,320 --> 01:05:25,160 Speaker 3: Are you going to vote for it? 1361 01:05:26,240 --> 01:05:26,400 Speaker 12: Yeah? 1362 01:05:26,440 --> 01:05:27,400 Speaker 8: I'm supporting it? 1363 01:05:27,560 --> 01:05:29,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, good, good, good good? So what's and no one 1364 01:05:30,040 --> 01:05:32,640 Speaker 3: knows about this because Caro Wan answers bloody phone. So 1365 01:05:32,760 --> 01:05:36,320 Speaker 3: he's got this bill and so it's a conscience vote 1366 01:05:36,400 --> 01:05:38,760 Speaker 3: and pubs are going to be open over Easter the 1367 01:05:38,840 --> 01:05:40,920 Speaker 3: way pubs should be open over Easter but haven't been 1368 01:05:40,920 --> 01:05:43,720 Speaker 3: allowed to because of these mad Easter rules we have. 1369 01:05:44,320 --> 01:05:46,000 Speaker 3: And it looks like it could go through And if 1370 01:05:46,000 --> 01:05:47,880 Speaker 3: it goes through today, correct me if I'm wrong, Jinny. 1371 01:05:47,880 --> 01:05:49,080 Speaker 3: But if it goes through today, it's going to be 1372 01:05:49,120 --> 01:05:50,920 Speaker 3: law and the pubs will be open for resta, won't they. 1373 01:05:51,640 --> 01:05:53,360 Speaker 20: Yeah, I'm pretty sure. I have to check the legislation, 1374 01:05:53,440 --> 01:05:55,240 Speaker 20: but I'm sure he's pretty sure it would make the 1375 01:05:55,360 --> 01:05:57,600 Speaker 20: change available in endic day is the other one that 1376 01:05:57,640 --> 01:05:59,280 Speaker 20: it umpets as well for people for pubs. 1377 01:05:59,320 --> 01:06:01,800 Speaker 3: That one on intat can take up so long to 1378 01:06:02,520 --> 01:06:04,720 Speaker 3: why hasn't he or you or anybody done something like 1379 01:06:04,800 --> 01:06:06,520 Speaker 3: this before. This is what we want you guys for 1380 01:06:06,760 --> 01:06:07,240 Speaker 3: more drinking. 1381 01:06:08,400 --> 01:06:12,280 Speaker 20: It's largely because our alcohol lords are are a bit 1382 01:06:12,320 --> 01:06:13,760 Speaker 20: of a nie and so when you get in there 1383 01:06:13,800 --> 01:06:16,000 Speaker 20: and do a little bit, it probably needs to fall overhaul. 1384 01:06:16,240 --> 01:06:17,120 Speaker 13: But this was a change. 1385 01:06:17,160 --> 01:06:19,840 Speaker 20: I think he had a local inject group that talked 1386 01:06:19,840 --> 01:06:21,960 Speaker 20: about it and how they were impacted. And so this 1387 01:06:22,120 --> 01:06:23,959 Speaker 20: is sort of one change that affected a bit, won't 1388 01:06:24,000 --> 01:06:26,320 Speaker 20: fex all of it, but it seems like a reasonable change. 1389 01:06:26,960 --> 01:06:29,680 Speaker 3: I'm voting for it, So you should well done.

When we're feedback directly from. 1422 01:07:54,320 --> 01:07:58,280 Speaker 3: Communities, it's like me trying to redesign Jackson Street, you know, Ginny. 1423 01:07:58,280 --> 01:08:00,360 Speaker 3: I mean it's like I've been to chat, but I'm 1424 01:08:00,400 --> 01:08:02,040 Speaker 3: not an expert on Jackson Street, so I don't want 1425 01:08:02,040 --> 01:08:02,560 Speaker 3: to mess with him. 1426 01:08:03,640 --> 01:08:05,880 Speaker 20: Or he came instead of guns a blazing saying he 1427 01:08:05,960 --> 01:08:07,560 Speaker 20: was an urbanist and how he's going to have this 1428 01:08:07,920 --> 01:08:10,960 Speaker 20: amazing sort of plan And the problem is that all 1429 01:08:11,000 --> 01:08:13,440 Speaker 20: the people who didn't want the extra intensification, the more 1430 01:08:13,520 --> 01:08:15,240 Speaker 20: leafy suburbs, you know, got their way. 1431 01:08:15,760 --> 01:08:16,320 Speaker 2: But that'll just. 1432 01:08:16,360 --> 01:08:20,360 Speaker 20: Poor put really poor quality against housing without the infrastructure. 1433 01:08:20,439 --> 01:08:22,640 Speaker 20: We saw in the interivisary day floods. What happens when 1434 01:08:22,680 --> 01:08:26,439 Speaker 20: you get more concrete than no supporting infrastructure. So it 1435 01:08:26,600 --> 01:08:29,840 Speaker 20: just means it'll be pushed into poor quality intensified housing. 1436 01:08:30,320 --> 01:08:32,160 Speaker 20: And it doesn't do what he promised, which is to 1437 01:08:32,240 --> 01:08:34,920 Speaker 20: build along those main arterial routes like. 1438 01:08:34,920 --> 01:08:35,799 Speaker 17: The Eastern Busway. 1439 01:08:36,240 --> 01:08:37,519 Speaker 20: That's not going to happen under this. 1440 01:08:37,720 --> 01:08:38,280 Speaker 13: So you're going to have. 1441 01:08:38,320 --> 01:08:42,960 Speaker 20: Pockets of livingness and pockets of more getization of buildings 1442 01:08:43,040 --> 01:08:45,840 Speaker 20: built up without supporting infrastructure. So I think that's been 1443 01:08:45,880 --> 01:08:46,719 Speaker 20: a complete stuffer. 1444 01:08:47,240 --> 01:08:47,680 Speaker 12: It has been. 1445 01:08:49,040 --> 01:08:52,479 Speaker 8: It's not it's not one hundred thousand poor housing houses 1446 01:08:52,520 --> 01:08:54,960 Speaker 8: that labored never didn't even come close to delving on 1447 01:08:55,000 --> 01:08:57,519 Speaker 8: its quality housing and places that people wanted.

And all that sort of stuff. I thought 1473 01:09:56,960 --> 01:09:57,560 Speaker 8: he was on to it. 1474 01:09:57,720 --> 01:10:00,320 Speaker 17: Did you that up yourself? Marked self? 1475 01:10:00,479 --> 01:10:02,679 Speaker 20: Because it's quite impressive, as you thought, they're. 1476 01:10:02,560 --> 01:10:03,240 Speaker 2: All on your own. 1477 01:10:03,560 --> 01:10:05,760 Speaker 19: I'm genuinely I went to I went to the lover 1478 01:10:05,840 --> 01:10:07,680 Speaker 19: caucus two weeks ago, so can you come up with 1479 01:10:07,760 --> 01:10:08,280 Speaker 19: one idea? 1480 01:10:08,479 --> 01:10:09,840 Speaker 8: And they came up. 1481 01:10:09,760 --> 01:10:14,360 Speaker 3: With Jenny, that's just to just to wrap this convivial session. 1482 01:10:14,439 --> 01:10:14,519 Speaker 7: Up. 1483 01:10:14,680 --> 01:10:17,720 Speaker 3: Just remind me, Ginny and please reassure me that this 1484 01:10:17,840 --> 01:10:20,559 Speaker 3: India FTA that Hipkins is writing letters about and stuff 1485 01:10:20,600 --> 01:10:22,000 Speaker 3: that you will get there eventually. 1486 01:10:22,120 --> 01:10:23,599 Speaker 2: This is this we hope. 1487 01:10:23,680 --> 01:10:24,400 Speaker 3: So you're not. 1488 01:10:26,200 --> 01:10:27,320 Speaker 21: One profound. 1489 01:10:29,000 --> 01:10:29,280 Speaker 7: We're not. 1490 01:10:29,479 --> 01:10:30,519 Speaker 17: We're not family against it. 1491 01:10:30,560 --> 01:10:32,320 Speaker 20: But the big problem is, you know, we did the 1492 01:10:32,400 --> 01:10:34,320 Speaker 20: numbers on the how much of this you know, have 1493 01:10:34,439 --> 01:10:38,160 Speaker 20: a expectation that New Zealand businesses are going to invest 1494 01:10:38,200 --> 01:10:41,479 Speaker 20: thirty four billion into it. That's that's a big problem 1495 01:10:41,880 --> 01:10:43,800 Speaker 20: because we looked at what we need to China and 1496 01:10:43,920 --> 01:10:46,160 Speaker 20: it's a fraction of that, even with Gary over a 1497 01:10:46,240 --> 01:10:48,840 Speaker 20: period of quite a number of years. So that's a 1498 01:10:48,960 --> 01:10:52,200 Speaker 20: massive issue that we're promising to invest thuty four billion 1499 01:10:52,280 --> 01:10:55,080 Speaker 20: into Indian companies when it's just you know, a. 1500 01:10:55,160 --> 01:10:59,600 Speaker 3: Big question, what's the penalty if we don't, Well, it. 1501 01:10:59,640 --> 01:11:01,880 Speaker 20: Means can pull out of all those markets. So there's 1502 01:11:01,880 --> 01:11:05,320 Speaker 20: a business and there's trade going on, and those businesses 1503 01:11:05,400 --> 01:11:08,000 Speaker 20: relying on that trade then it doesn't have to continue. 1504 01:11:08,080 --> 01:11:10,679 Speaker 20: They can use it as an out and so that's 1505 01:11:10,800 --> 01:11:13,280 Speaker 20: not suitanty for Gyman businesses who were wanting to do. 1506 01:11:14,800 --> 01:11:17,840 Speaker 3: Is that aspirational or is that like black and white 1507 01:11:18,520 --> 01:11:20,040 Speaker 3: invest or why. 1508 01:11:20,000 --> 01:11:21,439 Speaker 20: Dine up, Why sign up to it? 1509 01:11:23,800 --> 01:11:24,560 Speaker 3: To sign up to it? 1510 01:11:24,720 --> 01:11:27,640 Speaker 20: And it's aspirational, you know, like, really did this? 1511 01:11:27,840 --> 01:11:33,160 Speaker 8: Labor did this on the Chinese Free Trade Agreement. They 1512 01:11:33,240 --> 01:11:36,800 Speaker 8: came in the government and then they got mark. You know, 1513 01:11:39,040 --> 01:11:40,720 Speaker 8: you opposed it when we're in government, and then you 1514 01:11:40,800 --> 01:11:42,880 Speaker 8: went into government, you flipped and you supported it. It's 1515 01:11:42,880 --> 01:11:44,360 Speaker 8: been a great free trade a group for us. I 1516 01:11:44,479 --> 01:11:48,800 Speaker 8: just I mean this is India. Is India is really 1517 01:11:48,840 --> 01:11:51,720 Speaker 8: important for US as a country. It's a it's going 1518 01:11:51,800 --> 01:11:55,439 Speaker 8: to be We've got to keep trading with other countries. 1519 01:11:57,960 --> 01:12:00,280 Speaker 3: Range speaker really was. 1520 01:12:02,400 --> 01:12:04,640 Speaker 8: We could record Jenny's boyce and use it instead of 1521 01:12:04,760 --> 01:12:05,040 Speaker 8: very man. 1522 01:12:05,240 --> 01:12:06,120 Speaker 2: They're probably a good quot. 1523 01:12:08,240 --> 01:12:10,880 Speaker 3: Anyway, guys, listen, you have a good week.

I 1558 01:13:42,479 --> 01:13:45,439 Speaker 3: know you've been against the social media band against it. 1559 01:13:45,479 --> 01:13:47,880 Speaker 3: I just want it to be effective. Are you being consistent? 1560 01:13:48,320 --> 01:13:50,720 Speaker 3: And your reason's a coaching However, I've never heard you 1561 01:13:50,760 --> 01:13:52,639 Speaker 3: mention the fact that setting a band in law will 1562 01:13:52,680 --> 01:13:55,400 Speaker 3: give parents the authority they need to police the band themselves. 1563 01:13:56,160 --> 01:13:58,760 Speaker 3: That's a very good point. There's a group called Smartphone 1564 01:13:58,800 --> 01:14:02,320 Speaker 3: Free Childhood gaining pop popularity. Well done. Similar argument with 1565 01:14:02,439 --> 01:14:06,200 Speaker 3: the government in terms of phone bands and schools. We've 1566 01:14:06,240 --> 01:14:08,160 Speaker 3: got to report this week that said that it wasn't 1567 01:14:08,240 --> 01:14:11,719 Speaker 3: actually working that well. But it does allow the government 1568 01:14:11,800 --> 01:14:14,240 Speaker 3: to be the bad guy, so the schools can enforce 1569 01:14:14,320 --> 01:14:15,920 Speaker 3: it if they want to. So I take your point, 1570 01:14:15,960 --> 01:14:18,160 Speaker 3: and it's well made, Mike. Even though they don't have 1571 01:14:18,240 --> 01:14:20,479 Speaker 3: the technology to ban young people having social media, it 1572 01:14:20,520 --> 01:14:22,280 Speaker 3: gives the parents the tool. You're right, Mike. The cell 1573 01:14:22,400 --> 01:14:25,200 Speaker 3: service sites this is petrol again, have a one hundred 1574 01:14:25,200 --> 01:14:27,080 Speaker 3: and fifty dollars limit on credit cards this is a 1575 01:14:27,120 --> 01:14:30,160 Speaker 3: constraint on supply and an example of oil company's being 1576 01:14:30,200 --> 01:14:32,720 Speaker 3: that smart. Well not at all. If you've got a 1577 01:14:32,760 --> 01:14:35,040 Speaker 3: system whereby there are no people, what's stopping the guy 1578 01:14:35,720 --> 01:14:39,200 Speaker 3: bringing along his car, his boat, his two jet skis, 1579 01:14:39,479 --> 01:14:42,160 Speaker 3: sixteen Jerry cans and simply filling up left, right and 1580 01:14:42,200 --> 01:14:45,000 Speaker 3: center with no control over that. So the one fifty 1581 01:14:45,200 --> 01:14:48,240 Speaker 3: and by the way, the credit card limit on humps 1582 01:14:48,280 --> 01:14:50,439 Speaker 3: has been standard for years and they just adjust it. 1583 01:14:51,400 --> 01:14:53,240 Speaker 3: I'm surprised it's only one fifty. It should at least 1584 01:14:53,240 --> 01:14:54,920 Speaker 3: two hundred by now, given the price of petrol. But 1585 01:14:54,960 --> 01:14:57,000 Speaker 3: they've had that for years, and so anyone who pays 1586 01:14:57,040 --> 01:14:59,439 Speaker 3: by card has always been limited anyway. And that's just 1587 01:14:59,520 --> 01:15:03,120 Speaker 3: a a bank thing, apart from anything else. Steve Price 1588 01:15:03,479 --> 01:15:05,679 Speaker 3: in Australia after the News which is next. 1589 01:15:07,320 --> 01:15:10,759 Speaker 1: Tough on power, sharp on insight, the my casking Breakfast 1590 01:15:11,000 --> 01:15:15,320 Speaker 1: with Ranger over Sport SV, the Ultimate Performance SUV news 1591 01:15:15,400 --> 01:15:16,080 Speaker 1: togs eDV. 1592 01:15:16,120 --> 01:15:19,800 Speaker 3: Early days, but interesting insight from QV yesterday. The cost 1593 01:15:19,880 --> 01:15:23,240 Speaker 3: builder platform, So this is building construction that sort of stuff. 1594 01:15:23,320 --> 01:15:26,000 Speaker 3: Are we seeing price rises? We get some food delivered, 1595 01:15:26,040 --> 01:15:29,160 Speaker 3: not a supermarket but another person who makes food anyway, 1596 01:15:29,240 --> 01:15:31,400 Speaker 3: that we got the first of our SEO charges yesterday. 1597 01:15:31,439 --> 01:15:33,439 Speaker 3: All of a sudden, everything to bring stuff to you 1598 01:15:33,640 --> 01:15:37,360 Speaker 3: is going up materially, but the cost builder platform headline 1599 01:15:37,439 --> 01:15:41,120 Speaker 3: cost increases in March at zero point four percent, which 1600 01:15:41,200 --> 01:15:43,760 Speaker 3: is not the end of the world, but the cost 1601 01:15:43,800 --> 01:15:46,679 Speaker 3: of fuel is starting to flow through in specific areas 1602 01:15:46,680 --> 01:15:50,960 Speaker 3: of construction. So excavation has jumped in the month seven 1603 01:15:51,000 --> 01:15:54,400 Speaker 3: point eight percent, piling one point four, demolition one point three. 1604 01:15:54,880 --> 01:15:57,200 Speaker 3: So annualize that out you can see where the trouble's coming. 1605 01:15:57,280 --> 01:16:00,439 Speaker 3: The full impact would not become clear until next month. 1606 01:16:00,880 --> 01:16:03,599 Speaker 3: They aren't seeing widespread supply chain disruption of brucent year, 1607 01:16:03,680 --> 01:16:07,320 Speaker 3: so that's encouraging. Plaster board insulation that's up in price. 1608 01:16:07,360 --> 01:16:10,320 Speaker 3: Copper and steel pipework has declined in price, so that's 1609 01:16:10,320 --> 01:16:13,120 Speaker 3: why the whole thing overall is sort of flat. Overall 1610 01:16:13,200 --> 01:16:15,800 Speaker 3: at this point anyway, the market remained relatively balanced, which 1611 01:16:15,880 --> 01:16:19,920 Speaker 3: is good. But those early indicators around excavation, piling, et cetera, 1612 01:16:20,040 --> 01:16:23,479 Speaker 3: that they are they are the full warning for what 1613 01:16:23,720 --> 01:16:24,800 Speaker 3: is yet to arrive. 1614 01:16:24,960 --> 01:16:29,320 Speaker 14: Twenty two to nine International correspondence with endsit Eye insurance 1615 01:16:29,520 --> 01:16:31,520 Speaker 14: peace of mind for New Zealand business. 1616 01:16:31,360 --> 01:16:32,720 Speaker 3: Right it was tradi theirty price. 1617 01:16:32,800 --> 01:16:36,360 Speaker 8: Good morning for you, Good day there on fuel. 1618 01:16:36,479 --> 01:16:38,479 Speaker 16: Just let me give a quick update.

Ninety one 1621 01:16:45,320 --> 01:16:48,639 Speaker 16: ron selling this morning at two dollars thirty three point 1622 01:16:48,720 --> 01:16:52,519 Speaker 16: six Australian ninety five at two dollars forty nine point 1623 01:16:52,600 --> 01:16:57,080 Speaker 16: six Australian and premium diesel is two dollars ninety eight 1624 01:16:57,280 --> 01:17:01,000 Speaker 16: point six as we speak. And of course our fuel 1625 01:17:01,040 --> 01:17:04,040 Speaker 16: excise kicked in from the government kicked in at midnight 1626 01:17:04,439 --> 01:17:05,040 Speaker 16: last night. 1627 01:17:05,640 --> 01:17:08,920 Speaker 13: But there is a very big catch and. 1628 01:17:09,000 --> 01:17:11,840 Speaker 3: That is it doesn't apply as yet until the new 1629 01:17:11,920 --> 01:17:12,760 Speaker 3: oil comes in. 1630 01:17:13,840 --> 01:17:16,200 Speaker 16: Correct, it doesn't apply to the fuel that's already in 1631 01:17:16,280 --> 01:17:18,640 Speaker 16: the ground. Look, it's going to cost the taxpayers two 1632 01:17:18,680 --> 01:17:21,240 Speaker 16: point five billion dollars of the jury is still out 1633 01:17:21,280 --> 01:17:24,800 Speaker 16: on whether it's a good political decision or not. I 1634 01:17:24,840 --> 01:17:28,240 Speaker 16: would say that it's something the government really felt they 1635 01:17:28,320 --> 01:17:30,840 Speaker 16: had to do. But it is certainly going to I 1636 01:17:30,920 --> 01:17:33,280 Speaker 16: mean people running around saying, well, we're going to get 1637 01:17:33,320 --> 01:17:35,840 Speaker 16: cheaper fuel. Yeah, but you're paying for it because the 1638 01:17:35,920 --> 01:17:38,040 Speaker 16: taxpayers are paying for it. It's going to last for 1639 01:17:38,120 --> 01:17:40,880 Speaker 16: three months three months only now on what you were 1640 01:17:40,920 --> 01:17:44,439 Speaker 16: just saying about long term effects on everything we do. 1641 01:17:44,760 --> 01:17:47,400 Speaker 16: Three months in the context of all of this is 1642 01:17:47,520 --> 01:17:50,920 Speaker 16: not very long. Jim Chalmers City expects motorists would have 1643 01:17:51,000 --> 01:17:52,080 Speaker 16: to wait a few days. 1644 01:17:52,200 --> 01:17:52,360 Speaker 8: Well. 1645 01:17:52,439 --> 01:17:58,160 Speaker 16: Fuel retailers are saying publicly that at the very earliest 1646 01:17:58,160 --> 01:18:00,679 Speaker 16: it will be ten days before it really takes effect. 1647 01:18:01,000 --> 01:18:05,080 Speaker 16: Unless you're going to a very busy inner suburban petrol station. 1648 01:18:05,200 --> 01:18:08,320 Speaker 16: If you're out in regional, little rural Australia, it could 1649 01:18:08,600 --> 01:18:10,920 Speaker 16: take up to two weeks to even kick in. And 1650 01:18:11,080 --> 01:18:12,559 Speaker 16: how do you keep a watch on it? I mean, 1651 01:18:13,200 --> 01:18:15,800 Speaker 16: the Treasurer said, I've told the a triple ce you've 1652 01:18:15,840 --> 01:18:18,360 Speaker 16: got to really keep an eye on this and we'll 1653 01:18:18,640 --> 01:18:22,560 Speaker 16: crack down hard on you if you don't apply the discount. 1654 01:18:22,680 --> 01:18:24,800 Speaker 16: But how are they going to check that? It's going 1655 01:18:24,880 --> 01:18:25,960 Speaker 16: to be almost impossible. 1656 01:18:26,560 --> 01:18:28,719 Speaker 3: I'm actually quite proud of what we've done in this country, 1657 01:18:28,760 --> 01:18:32,800 Speaker 3: which is very little. And there's tremendous pressure on the government, 1658 01:18:32,800 --> 01:18:34,720 Speaker 3: as there is in all governments around the world on 1659 01:18:35,160 --> 01:18:36,880 Speaker 3: road use of charges and all that sort of stuff. 1660 01:18:37,160 --> 01:18:39,840 Speaker 3: Have you not learned the lesson out of COVID that 1661 01:18:40,080 --> 01:18:42,759 Speaker 3: if Albanezer goes right, you can have some free feel Firstly, 1662 01:18:42,920 --> 01:18:46,639 Speaker 3: the guy who's driving the Ferrari gets to fuel. Waste 1663 01:18:46,680 --> 01:18:48,800 Speaker 3: of time. Second of all, the RB looks at it 1664 01:18:48,840 --> 01:18:51,720 Speaker 3: and goes, oh, I see inflationary. No problem, we'll just 1665 01:18:51,760 --> 01:18:54,240 Speaker 3: increase those interest rates one more. What part of that 1666 01:18:54,400 --> 01:18:55,719 Speaker 3: don't Australians understand? 1667 01:18:56,600 --> 01:18:59,160 Speaker 16: Well, the government is obviously in the market for keeping 1668 01:18:59,240 --> 01:18:59,920 Speaker 16: itself popular. 1669 01:19:00,000 --> 01:19:02,760 Speaker 8: I mean the quotes from the Treasurer bear that out. 1670 01:19:02,840 --> 01:19:05,839 Speaker 16: He says, quote, people shouldn't be taking motorists from mugs 1671 01:19:06,320 --> 01:19:08,960 Speaker 16: when it comes to passing on the discount. And so 1672 01:19:09,120 --> 01:19:11,360 Speaker 16: the change kicks in at midnight, people should expect to 1673 01:19:11,400 --> 01:19:14,000 Speaker 16: see it over the next fortnight or so. I mean, 1674 01:19:14,320 --> 01:19:16,559 Speaker 16: this is a populist government who wants to keep itself 1675 01:19:16,920 --> 01:19:19,120 Speaker 16: I mean we had the Victorian government, you know, three 1676 01:19:19,200 --> 01:19:22,879 Speaker 16: days ago suddenly go okay, free public transport for everybody. 1677 01:19:23,280 --> 01:19:25,439 Speaker 16: Well it's not free public transport for everybody at all. 1678 01:19:25,600 --> 01:19:28,400 Speaker 16: It's going to cost seventy million, it's going to last 1679 01:19:28,479 --> 01:19:30,639 Speaker 16: for a month. And of course what do you see 1680 01:19:30,720 --> 01:19:34,200 Speaker 16: yesterday every car park at a train station, overflowing cars 1681 01:19:34,640 --> 01:19:38,080 Speaker 16: and people catching free public transport. So this idea that 1682 01:19:38,160 --> 01:19:40,719 Speaker 16: everything's going to be free and the luxe, and government 1683 01:19:40,800 --> 01:19:43,080 Speaker 16: is quite right to hold firm on that you shouldn't 1684 01:19:43,120 --> 01:19:45,240 Speaker 16: do it. You should actually do what's best in the 1685 01:19:45,280 --> 01:19:46,920 Speaker 16: best interest of the budget. 1686 01:19:46,600 --> 01:19:47,160 Speaker 12: Of the country. 1687 01:19:47,680 --> 01:19:49,519 Speaker 3: I had a story the other day that came out 1688 01:19:49,560 --> 01:19:57,040 Speaker 3: of is it Scone and the local campground there was 1689 01:19:57,080 --> 01:20:00,639 Speaker 3: saying everyone's canceling the rest of holidays, no and driving. 1690 01:20:00,800 --> 01:20:02,840 Speaker 3: Is that real? Do you think of people giving up 1691 01:20:02,920 --> 01:20:05,720 Speaker 3: on going away driving if they can't afford it or 1692 01:20:05,720 --> 01:20:08,400 Speaker 3: don't think there's going to be any pictrol in rural Australia. 1693 01:20:08,640 --> 01:20:11,400 Speaker 16: Yeah, Well, as you know, Australia is such a big country. 1694 01:20:11,400 --> 01:20:12,760 Speaker 16: If you're going to go, if you've got a full 1695 01:20:12,840 --> 01:20:16,640 Speaker 16: days to break and people obviously tach extra days on 1696 01:20:17,320 --> 01:20:20,599 Speaker 16: and school holidays start at the same time, so people 1697 01:20:20,600 --> 01:20:22,960 Speaker 16: are going to travel big distances. A lot of people 1698 01:20:23,040 --> 01:20:24,840 Speaker 16: are going, well, I'm just not going to go. I mean, 1699 01:20:26,040 --> 01:20:28,360 Speaker 16: it's not so much even the cost, it's whether you know, 1700 01:20:28,520 --> 01:20:31,360 Speaker 16: the reliability of whether you're able to actually get diesel. 1701 01:20:31,840 --> 01:20:35,960 Speaker 16: And most of the big SUVSA there trunnling around Australia 1702 01:20:36,000 --> 01:20:39,240 Speaker 16: are powered by diesel, so there are people canceling. Although 1703 01:20:39,960 --> 01:20:43,280 Speaker 16: an interesting story today one of the car rental sites 1704 01:20:43,360 --> 01:20:47,799 Speaker 16: that where they rent electric vehicles and electric vehicles and hybrids, 1705 01:20:48,280 --> 01:20:50,320 Speaker 16: so that they've gone up by three hundred and eighty 1706 01:20:50,360 --> 01:20:53,479 Speaker 16: eight percent for bookings in the last two days. People 1707 01:20:53,560 --> 01:20:55,439 Speaker 16: being very smart. I would never have thought to do that, 1708 01:20:55,600 --> 01:20:58,160 Speaker 16: but they're ringing up a rental car company and saying, 1709 01:20:58,240 --> 01:21:00,400 Speaker 16: rent me an electric vehicle so I can go east 1710 01:21:00,400 --> 01:21:03,240 Speaker 16: to holiday. So people are smarter than what people think. 1711 01:21:03,320 --> 01:21:04,519 Speaker 16: So they're catching on and doing that. 1712 01:21:04,920 --> 01:21:08,000 Speaker 3: Daars He Freeman this wall. Have you ever heard of wool? 1713 01:21:09,520 --> 01:21:12,640 Speaker 16: No one has. These are very tiny remote communities up 1714 01:21:12,640 --> 01:21:17,600 Speaker 16: on the River Murray, northwest northeast of Melbourne. It's the 1715 01:21:17,720 --> 01:21:20,760 Speaker 16: back of the Australian Alps. I mean, anyone who's ever 1716 01:21:20,840 --> 01:21:22,840 Speaker 16: come skiing, I don't know why you'd do that if 1717 01:21:22,840 --> 01:21:24,559 Speaker 16: you're a key where you wouldn't come eat to go skiing. 1718 01:21:24,640 --> 01:21:27,639 Speaker 16: But Mount Baller and Mount hoppin places like that. It's 1719 01:21:27,720 --> 01:21:30,519 Speaker 16: right up in the high country. As He Freeman of 1720 01:21:30,560 --> 01:21:33,479 Speaker 16: course shot did two police officers. He was cornered at 1721 01:21:33,520 --> 01:21:36,240 Speaker 16: a caravan that he was living in a place called 1722 01:21:36,280 --> 01:21:39,960 Speaker 16: Paul Punker and disappeared. Now we all thought he was dead. 1723 01:21:40,080 --> 01:21:42,880 Speaker 16: He went on the run for two hundred and sixteen 1724 01:21:43,600 --> 01:21:46,559 Speaker 16: days now. He was living in a shipping container. If 1725 01:21:46,560 --> 01:21:48,360 Speaker 16: you see pictures of where he was living, it was 1726 01:21:48,760 --> 01:21:52,719 Speaker 16: basically a hovel. There was upturned boats and wreck trucks 1727 01:21:52,760 --> 01:21:55,040 Speaker 16: and all sorts of things around him. They now found 1728 01:21:55,840 --> 01:21:58,280 Speaker 16: two phones that were there that might give them an 1729 01:21:58,320 --> 01:22:01,360 Speaker 16: idea of someone had to be helping him, because how 1730 01:22:01,439 --> 01:22:04,479 Speaker 16: else could he get one hundred and fifty kilometers away 1731 01:22:04,920 --> 01:22:06,960 Speaker 16: from where he shot those police officers to where he 1732 01:22:07,080 --> 01:22:09,960 Speaker 16: ended up staying. We learned today that he'd only been 1733 01:22:10,000 --> 01:22:14,320 Speaker 16: there for a short period of time. The way they 1734 01:22:14,400 --> 01:22:17,519 Speaker 16: intercepted a car. They thought that they tracked this car, 1735 01:22:18,120 --> 01:22:20,000 Speaker 16: and they then got a tip off from someone. There's 1736 01:22:20,000 --> 01:22:24,000 Speaker 16: a million dollar reward for getting Freeman captured. He came 1737 01:22:24,080 --> 01:22:26,560 Speaker 16: out of the shipping container he's living in, had a 1738 01:22:26,680 --> 01:22:29,200 Speaker 16: douner around his shoulders, dropped that, and had a police 1739 01:22:29,280 --> 01:22:31,760 Speaker 16: firearm in his hand that he'd taken from one of 1740 01:22:31,800 --> 01:22:35,559 Speaker 16: the dead police officers, and the Special Operations Group told 1741 01:22:35,600 --> 01:22:38,320 Speaker 16: him to drop the weapon. He refused to do so. 1742 01:22:39,479 --> 01:22:42,879 Speaker 16: He was shot twenty times by Special Operations. 1743 01:22:42,920 --> 01:22:44,920 Speaker 3: I'm surprised I was watching Mike Bush, of course, how 1744 01:22:45,000 --> 01:22:47,600 Speaker 3: Mike Bush in New Zealander was running victory. He was 1745 01:22:47,640 --> 01:22:50,240 Speaker 3: doing the press. Ye hey, by the way, just quickly. 1746 01:22:50,280 --> 01:22:52,200 Speaker 3: I forgot to mention this the other day, This Rio 1747 01:22:52,320 --> 01:22:55,920 Speaker 3: tinto thing, This government, yet another government bailout. So Rio 1748 01:22:56,000 --> 01:22:59,400 Speaker 3: tinto Queensland aluminium smelter they liked so many other people 1749 01:22:59,400 --> 01:23:01,519 Speaker 3: seem to run of trouble and the government comes to 1750 01:23:01,600 --> 01:23:04,960 Speaker 3: bail them out. Is that politically popular because of the jobs? 1751 01:23:05,360 --> 01:23:06,320 Speaker 3: And where does it end? 1752 01:23:07,520 --> 01:23:09,680 Speaker 16: Well, it doesn't end with this government because you know, 1753 01:23:09,720 --> 01:23:11,439 Speaker 16: you've got a budget coming up in May, with Jim 1754 01:23:11,520 --> 01:23:16,080 Speaker 16: Charmers having to stay popular, and the bailouts of companies 1755 01:23:16,120 --> 01:23:19,360 Speaker 16: that are in strife, particularly when it comes to energy 1756 01:23:19,760 --> 01:23:22,720 Speaker 16: hungry companies like those that make aluminium, and they are 1757 01:23:22,800 --> 01:23:26,200 Speaker 16: the hungriest of all. The government is on the one hand, 1758 01:23:26,520 --> 01:23:30,200 Speaker 16: you know, forcing us to spend trillions of dollars on 1759 01:23:30,360 --> 01:23:32,600 Speaker 16: green energy, on the other hand bailing out companies that 1760 01:23:32,640 --> 01:23:34,559 Speaker 16: are going to fall over if they don't have enough power. 1761 01:23:34,680 --> 01:23:37,720 Speaker 16: So it makes no sense. I mean, Jim Charmers is 1762 01:23:37,760 --> 01:23:40,160 Speaker 16: at the moment very unpopular about the way he's running 1763 01:23:40,160 --> 01:23:41,160 Speaker 16: the finance of the country. 1764 01:23:41,360 --> 01:23:42,920 Speaker 3: No kidding, You have a good one, mate, We'll catch 1765 01:23:42,960 --> 01:23:45,000 Speaker 3: up next week. Appreciate it. Steve Price out of Australia 1766 01:23:45,040 --> 01:23:45,960 Speaker 3: eight forty five. 1767 01:23:47,240 --> 01:23:51,559 Speaker 1: The Mike Asking Breakfast Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio, Power 1768 01:23:51,640 --> 01:23:52,640 Speaker 1: by News Talks that be. 1769 01:23:53,680 --> 01:23:56,080 Speaker 3: See this's the difference between New Zealand and Australia at 1770 01:23:56,120 --> 01:23:58,519 Speaker 3: the moment. And I'll come back to the subsidies or 1771 01:23:58,560 --> 01:24:00,800 Speaker 3: the help around petrol and the and stuff. But this 1772 01:24:01,160 --> 01:24:03,599 Speaker 3: Rio tinto thing in Queensland. Of course, that's two billion 1773 01:24:03,640 --> 01:24:07,040 Speaker 3: dollars worth, and that's a deal between Elbanisi and the 1774 01:24:07,120 --> 01:24:09,800 Speaker 3: Queensland government, so Fed and State each will put in 1775 01:24:09,880 --> 01:24:13,599 Speaker 3: a billion each over ten years. The Boyne aluminium smelter 1776 01:24:13,720 --> 01:24:16,200 Speaker 3: in Gladstone. There's a thousand jobs there and there's two 1777 01:24:16,240 --> 01:24:18,639 Speaker 3: thousand indirect jobs. So the moment they go wrong, everyone 1778 01:24:18,680 --> 01:24:21,920 Speaker 3: goes on juns. We're better do something about that. In return, 1779 01:24:22,040 --> 01:24:24,120 Speaker 3: Rio is going to underwrite around seven billion dollars of 1780 01:24:24,120 --> 01:24:27,240 Speaker 3: investment and clean energy for the energy grid in Queensland. 1781 01:24:27,479 --> 01:24:29,280 Speaker 3: Then you got Glen Call. You remember Glenn Call the 1782 01:24:29,439 --> 01:24:33,200 Speaker 3: copper smelter. There was last October near Stars Smelters and 1783 01:24:33,280 --> 01:24:35,360 Speaker 3: Port Pirie and Hobart last August. And of course it 1784 01:24:35,439 --> 01:24:38,120 Speaker 3: all began at Wayala. In fact, the Wayale thing. If 1785 01:24:38,160 --> 01:24:40,160 Speaker 3: I go back, it goes back to February, which would 1786 01:24:40,160 --> 01:24:42,400 Speaker 3: have been before the election, I think. Anyway, so you 1787 01:24:42,520 --> 01:24:44,639 Speaker 3: get yourself in trouble, the government comes to your rescue, which, 1788 01:24:44,680 --> 01:24:47,760 Speaker 3: of course you could argue, why aren't we doing the 1789 01:24:47,800 --> 01:24:49,439 Speaker 3: same thing in New Zealand. So when it comes to 1790 01:24:49,479 --> 01:24:52,000 Speaker 3: Watties or Hines or whatever, a couple hundred jobs and 1791 01:24:52,000 --> 01:24:53,880 Speaker 3: the bayon, No, don't worry.

That's Heartland dot Co dot in z. Asking 1846 01:27:07,000 --> 01:27:11,080 Speaker 3: ABC on Australia they think they might take seven days 1847 01:27:11,120 --> 01:27:12,640 Speaker 3: off by way of a strike that did the one 1848 01:27:12,720 --> 01:27:14,200 Speaker 3: day or the other day. The problem with the media, 1849 01:27:14,280 --> 01:27:16,640 Speaker 3: of course is they're so full of this self importance 1850 01:27:16,680 --> 01:27:18,839 Speaker 3: and it's not like there is another media in Australia. 1851 01:27:18,880 --> 01:27:20,840 Speaker 3: So if the ABC don't turn up one day or 1852 01:27:20,920 --> 01:27:23,439 Speaker 3: for seven days, guess what people just wander off to 1853 01:27:23,479 --> 01:27:26,599 Speaker 3: the people that didn't turn up it's not hart. Meantime, 1854 01:27:26,600 --> 01:27:28,920 Speaker 3: Also in media in Australia yesterday Jackie Oh. This is 1855 01:27:28,920 --> 01:27:34,240 Speaker 3: the Kyle and Jackie Oh's story. Massive contract. They're being sacked. 1856 01:27:34,560 --> 01:27:37,160 Speaker 3: They're arguing they shouldn't have been sacked. We didn't know 1857 01:27:37,240 --> 01:27:39,920 Speaker 3: where she was until yesterday. Kyle sued the other day. 1858 01:27:40,400 --> 01:27:42,639 Speaker 3: So he wants eighty eight million, she only wants AD two. 1859 01:27:42,640 --> 01:27:44,559 Speaker 3: I don't know where the differential comes from because they 1860 01:27:44,600 --> 01:27:46,519 Speaker 3: were both on the same money. But nevertheless, she came 1861 01:27:46,600 --> 01:27:49,120 Speaker 3: in yesterday said she was suing as well. She's got 1862 01:27:49,200 --> 01:27:53,360 Speaker 3: problems because she claims she couldn't work with him anymore, 1863 01:27:53,720 --> 01:27:56,439 Speaker 3: and that point they ripped up a contract. So that's 1864 01:27:56,520 --> 01:27:59,599 Speaker 3: a bit on her, whereas Kyle seems anyway, the point 1865 01:27:59,680 --> 01:28:01,719 Speaker 3: being the company doesn't have the money if they lost, 1866 01:28:02,200 --> 01:28:04,840 Speaker 3: which makes it even more interesting.
