1 00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:04,720 Speaker 1: Pressing the newsmakers to get the real story. 2 00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:08,360 Speaker 2: It's hither dup cy Ellen drive with one New Zealand 3 00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:10,880 Speaker 2: let's get connected us. Tom said, be. 4 00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:15,840 Speaker 3: Hey, good afternoon. Coming up on the show today, Police 5 00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:19,720 Speaker 3: Minister Mark Mitchell on the Police commissioner quitting, Jeffrey Miller, 6 00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:22,920 Speaker 3: foreign policy anist analyst on how far off war we 7 00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:26,000 Speaker 3: are in the Lebanon situation, and Chloe Swarbrick on whether 8 00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:29,280 Speaker 3: they're sure, really sure that they should try again to 9 00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:30,400 Speaker 3: kick Darlene out. 10 00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:32,760 Speaker 2: Heather Dupicy Ellen. 11 00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:36,280 Speaker 3: So, Andrew Costa has resigned his Police commission. He's got 12 00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:38,520 Speaker 3: himself a new job. He is going to be running 13 00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:42,519 Speaker 3: the government's new social Investment agency, and I reckon he's 14 00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:44,640 Speaker 3: actually going to be good at this job. Now I 15 00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:47,400 Speaker 3: acknowledge this may not be a popular appointment. I think 16 00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:49,080 Speaker 3: a lot of people will see this for what it 17 00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:52,040 Speaker 3: probably is, which is that it's a job that's been 18 00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:55,040 Speaker 3: given to him to get him to leave the police 19 00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:57,600 Speaker 3: job because the government doesn't want him an there anymore. 20 00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:00,640 Speaker 3: And also this will reinforce the eye that there's a 21 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:03,400 Speaker 3: job Mary go around in Wellington, which is obviously true. 22 00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:05,880 Speaker 3: And also there will be questions about why on earth 23 00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:08,679 Speaker 3: you'd reward someone for being pretty bad at their previous job, 24 00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:10,680 Speaker 3: which Costa definitely was when he was a shocker of 25 00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:14,039 Speaker 3: a police commissioner. And all of those criticisms, many of 26 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 3: which are already in my inbox, are completely valid. But 27 00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:19,440 Speaker 3: set all of that aside. I think he's going to 28 00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:22,160 Speaker 3: be good at this job because this is his wheelhouse. Right, 29 00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:25,200 Speaker 3: Andrew Costa never was a crackdown on crime guy. He's 30 00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:28,240 Speaker 3: a cotton wool guy. He's a believe in people's potential guy. 31 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:31,080 Speaker 3: He's a given them another chance guy. He believes so 32 00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 3: much in the fence at the top of the cliff 33 00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 3: that he forgot that his job was actually to be 34 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 3: running the ambulance at the bottom of the cliff. But 35 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:40,679 Speaker 3: this job that he's just been given is the fence 36 00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 3: at the top of the cliff job. The point of 37 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:45,880 Speaker 3: the Social Investment Agency is to help people before they 38 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:48,680 Speaker 3: become criminals, right, put a lot of money and a 39 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:51,440 Speaker 3: lot of resource into them to try to stop them 40 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:54,400 Speaker 3: going down the path that leads them to criminality. You 41 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 3: even start investing in them when they're babies. Now, that 42 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 3: is right up, Andrew cost dos Aally, isn't it and 43 00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:03,840 Speaker 3: for all of his failings as a police commissioner, his 44 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 3: inability to be tough on gangs, his inability to even 45 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:10,519 Speaker 3: do the basics like clear out the parliamentary protest before 46 00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 3: it got out of hand. Remember how he kept saying, 47 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:14,760 Speaker 3: I'm gonna tell your cars. Now I'm this, No, this time, 48 00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:16,519 Speaker 3: I'm really going to tell your cars. No, okay, today, 49 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 3: I'm really going to tell your cars. And it never happened. 50 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 3: Remember all of that stuff. For all of that, I 51 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,160 Speaker 3: actually think he is still a very bright and decent guy. 52 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:27,440 Speaker 3: So I just think what this was was a case 53 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:30,399 Speaker 3: of the wrong job for the wrong guy. I am 54 00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:32,960 Speaker 3: very happy he's leaving the police. I hope we never 55 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,240 Speaker 3: have a commissioner as weak as week on crime as 56 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:37,040 Speaker 3: him again. But I think that there is a very 57 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:38,760 Speaker 3: very good chance that he's actually going to be very 58 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,040 Speaker 3: very good at what he does next. And I hope 59 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:43,640 Speaker 3: he's good at it because this is a very important job. 60 00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:46,680 Speaker 2: Heather due for CLA nineteen nineteen is the text. 61 00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:48,800 Speaker 3: Under standard text fees apply And we're going to talk 62 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:50,680 Speaker 3: to Mark Mitchell about all of this when he's with 63 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:54,079 Speaker 3: us after five o'clock. Now, the government's pushed to get 64 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:56,920 Speaker 3: the public servants back into offices and Wellington is catching 65 00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 3: on half to the city chief executive in Auckland, Beck 66 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:03,320 Speaker 3: says Auckland Council should lead by example. The council, however, 67 00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 3: of course, says it has no intention to do that. 68 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 3: Verve Becker's with us now have viv Hello, how much 69 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:11,120 Speaker 3: of a difference would it make if the Auckland Council 70 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 3: workers were actually back in the city. 71 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 4: Well, overall, we're about thirty thousand people down in the 72 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:21,919 Speaker 4: morning peak on week days. That's a lot of people, yes, 73 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:26,240 Speaker 4: every day if you look before COVID and some of 74 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 4: that is all the construction and some of it is 75 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:32,120 Speaker 4: COVID and working from home. And obviously Auckland Council can't 76 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 4: single handedly change that. And I do understand one size 77 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 4: doesn't fit all, but I am thinking this is a 78 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 4: good initiative to tighten those working from home policies. And 79 00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 4: really I'm saying to council there's an opportunity to take 80 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 4: a lead here. 81 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 3: What proportion of the inner city workforce is thirty thousand. 82 00:03:55,080 --> 00:04:00,280 Speaker 4: Well, put it this way, we're about that's about about 83 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 4: thirty percent down. 84 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 3: Wow, Okay, that's really significant. So this will be this 85 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 3: will be felt by basically the same story as as 86 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:11,640 Speaker 3: in Wellington, by the hosper guys and the retail guys 87 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 3: and so on. They will notice that there. Yeah, it does. 88 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:18,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, and this also just has that effect on the 89 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 4: vibrancy of the place. You know, it just feels better 90 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 4: when there are more people around. I mean, we're fortunate 91 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 4: we get tourists, we've got people living here, we have events. 92 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:31,240 Speaker 4: But that's a big So that's a foot traffic, but 93 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:33,440 Speaker 4: in terms of the peak, that morning peak, you know, 94 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 4: that's that's around twenty percent fewer than we had before. 95 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:39,159 Speaker 4: But in terms of foot traffic, we're actually thirty percent down. 96 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 4: So you know, the reality is it's a significant impact. 97 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:46,880 Speaker 4: And you know, I understand flexibility is around and I 98 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 4: mean I implemented flexibility in a business many years ago 99 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:52,720 Speaker 4: and people said you couldn't do it. But the reality 100 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 4: is we have got a significant shortfall of people and 101 00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 4: it's quite some way off before the CRL opens. 102 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:00,919 Speaker 3: And what we've. 103 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:02,560 Speaker 4: Been saying to count sol and to be fair, we're 104 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 4: getting a fair hearing and basically saying to them that 105 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:07,159 Speaker 4: we need to do everything we can to get people 106 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 4: back here. Because it's no point waiting for the CRL 107 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 4: and expecting fifty four thousand people to pop out every hour. 108 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:16,280 Speaker 4: We've actually got to keep the place alive and vibrant, 109 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 4: and this is one way that would make a difference. 110 00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 4: So I'm really just asking them to reassess their policy. 111 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 3: You have a good relationship with Wayne Brown, because I 112 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 3: mean it's one thing for Auckland Council to say, Na, 113 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 3: they're not going to do it, because I mean, this 114 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:29,720 Speaker 3: is exactly what you expect from bureaucrats. But Waine might 115 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:31,160 Speaker 3: be able to whip them into shape. 116 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:34,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, So that's another conversation. 117 00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:37,720 Speaker 3: I can have wanted to be a fair r. 118 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 4: No, to be fair, I got a good hearing from 119 00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:42,520 Speaker 4: the mayor and counselors, and I have had to from 120 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 4: the chief executive around the importance of getting people back 121 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 4: into the central city. And you know some of the 122 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 4: things that we that happen right now that are deterrents. 123 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 4: I'm asking them to change things. 124 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:57,119 Speaker 3: So how can you say you had a fair hearing 125 00:05:57,160 --> 00:05:59,520 Speaker 3: when like day two of this they come out and 126 00:05:59,520 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 3: they go, no. 127 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:01,039 Speaker 5: I know not on this. 128 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:03,599 Speaker 4: What I'm saying is I presented to them some weeks 129 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 4: ago and raised these points, got a fair hearing and 130 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:10,920 Speaker 4: I'm just continuing to remind them that this matters absolutely. 131 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:12,800 Speaker 3: The best of luck with it. I really appreciate your time. 132 00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 3: That's Vivbeck, heart of the city Chief Executive. Yet I mean, 133 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:18,159 Speaker 3: just how much is how much? Is Auckland Council just 134 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 3: basically another version of the bloated the blob in Wellington. 135 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 3: Auckland Council says it has no intention of changing its 136 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:27,560 Speaker 3: policy which requires staff members to work only three days 137 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:30,080 Speaker 3: a week in person. All right for some, isn't it 138 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 3: ill tell you what ratepayers are paying those people's bills 139 00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:34,920 Speaker 3: If we can slap our butts into the office three 140 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 3: days a week, five days a week, sorry, and fight 141 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 3: the buses and the trains and the commuter traffic, and 142 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:43,360 Speaker 3: we can find childcare for our children if we can 143 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 3: do it five days a week. Frankly you can too. 144 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 3: Stop being lazy. Now we're twists in the P did 145 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 3: he story? P did? He is making more money right 146 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 3: now than he was about a week ago because of 147 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,280 Speaker 3: his arrest last week on the sex trafficking charges. And 148 00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:02,160 Speaker 3: the reason is because since he was arrested, there has 149 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 3: been a jump of around about eighteen percent plus in 150 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:07,160 Speaker 3: the streams of his song, And every time you stream 151 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 3: one of his songs, he just gets a little bit 152 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 3: of something. It might not be March, but it all 153 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:13,160 Speaker 3: adds up in the end. And basically the reason people 154 00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 3: are streaming his music at the moment is because they're curious, right, 155 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:18,040 Speaker 3: They're like, Oh, this is horrific. What this guy's been 156 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:20,400 Speaker 3: accused of. What kind of person would do that? Let 157 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 3: me go back and listen to his songs again and 158 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 3: his lyrics. Maybe you've never even heard of him, if 159 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 3: you're of a certain age, to go back to listen 160 00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 3: to him. Same thing happened to r Kelly, Remember that 161 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 3: documentary that was put out about him and the underage girls. 162 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 3: Same thing happened.

So, at one end of the scale 193 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:51,640 Speaker 3: of what you could do to a player, you can 194 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:54,080 Speaker 3: punch them in the face of the end of them unconscious. 195 00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:55,720 Speaker 3: At the other end of the scale of what you 196 00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:57,960 Speaker 3: could do to a player is maybe you playfully tap 197 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:00,559 Speaker 3: them on the bottom or something like that. Was you 198 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:02,480 Speaker 3: into the scale are we're talking about here? Is it 199 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 3: the lighter or the heavier? 200 00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 7: Well, it depends on you if you're the person that 201 00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:07,920 Speaker 7: received whatever it was. 202 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 6: But because some people. 203 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:13,560 Speaker 3: Are not knowledge what is well, I don't know how. 204 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:17,080 Speaker 7: I don't know how an athlete would respond to their 205 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:20,960 Speaker 7: coach in a situation such as that. 206 00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 6: I know that round here on the O. Okay, I'll 207 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:23,720 Speaker 6: carry the office right. 208 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:25,000 Speaker 7: If I was to come up and give you a 209 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 7: big cuddle, you probably wouldn't take me to HR. 210 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 3: Well, I think, I mean it's a possibility. Now, let's 211 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:33,560 Speaker 3: see what you mean. 212 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:36,880 Speaker 7: Yeah, And so we don't know because we don't know 213 00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:40,119 Speaker 7: what has been put in place for the athletes around protocol, 214 00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 7: around the coach and the ethics. Look, it might be 215 00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 7: something as insignificant as a cuddle. 216 00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:47,680 Speaker 6: Yes, So the reason you touched me, you don't touch me. 217 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 3: Let's go there. The reason I'm asking you this question 218 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:52,400 Speaker 3: is because what I've heard is that it is something 219 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:55,200 Speaker 3: as insignificant as a cuddle, in which case I'm wondering 220 00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 3: why on earth a group full of women have reacted 221 00:09:57,840 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 3: like this. 222 00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:01,880 Speaker 7: Okay, so I would say if it is something as 223 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:08,000 Speaker 7: I don't know exactly how insignificant it seems. Yeah, if 224 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:13,720 Speaker 7: it was, then maybe Yetka wasn't like there's a coach 225 00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:15,280 Speaker 7: and that was a trigger to move her on. 226 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 6: Is that an idea? 227 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 7: Yes, again, because no one talks and no one knows 228 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:24,840 Speaker 7: the effect that's had and what's driven it. As I've 229 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,559 Speaker 7: always said, when you have a vacuum, what happens? 230 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 3: It feels like a viper's nest in there, doesn't it? 231 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 2: It really does. 232 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:32,200 Speaker 6: It doesn't feel good. 233 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:33,720 Speaker 3: Way too much estrogen in there. 234 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 6: Say Bonnie Jansen. 235 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 7: Credit to her, she's been running around harassing people left, 236 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 7: right and center, making all the moves. 237 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 3: So harassing them consensually. They spoke to her so they 238 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:49,920 Speaker 3: didn't hate it nicely. But MCL injury for Jordi Barrett 239 00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:51,040 Speaker 3: sounds quite serious. 240 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 7: Any injury to your knee is quite serious, isn't Although 241 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 7: cameroy guard's on his way back, looks like you've been 242 00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:59,160 Speaker 7: joining the camp after blowing his peteller. 243 00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:00,440 Speaker 6: I think it was on craps. 244 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:05,080 Speaker 7: So no MCL for Jordi four to eight weeks, nothing 245 00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:08,079 Speaker 7: official yet, but he won't be around, but it's gonna 246 00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 7: be what not a month before they head on tour, 247 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 7: so got a while to see what they can do 248 00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:12,840 Speaker 7: with that. 249 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 6: Sorely missed. 250 00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:16,480 Speaker 7: He's been one of the better players in the back line, 251 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:19,559 Speaker 7: more consistent and reliable players in the back line. 252 00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:22,079 Speaker 6: And also it's his home test. 253 00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 7: You know, he knows how to carve off the meters 254 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:27,560 Speaker 7: at Wellington, So it's a bit sad. I don't see 255 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 7: them making massive changes in the midfield. I really don't. 256 00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 7: Billy Proctor is hanging around as a center. Maybe he 257 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 7: comes on the bench, I think, but I don't think 258 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 7: they're going to move Rico Yuani. You don't want that 259 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:45,480 Speaker 7: much distraction in the midfield, especially when you're first five eight, 260 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:47,000 Speaker 7: still trying to work out which ways up. 261 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:48,839 Speaker 3: I mean, oh Jesus. 262 00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:50,800 Speaker 6: Sorry, you don't need that distraction. You don't. 263 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:53,480 Speaker 3: We're going to miss Jordi Barrett. Now that we realize 264 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 3: the Wallabies are actually a great squad, I wouldn't call. 265 00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:57,840 Speaker 6: Them a great squad.

They're amazing. 269 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:06,520 Speaker 6: I just let them score twenty points in the first 270 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:07,080 Speaker 6: twenty minutes. 271 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:07,880 Speaker 2: We'll rub them down on me. 272 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:11,680 Speaker 3: It doesn't matter. So I know that now, Yeah, and 273 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 3: the All. 274 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 6: Blacks know that. People know that, they know that. 275 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:16,400 Speaker 3: They're all freaking out about it. 276 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 6: When it gets it makes so much more interesting. 277 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:22,520 Speaker 3: Hey, Darcy, thank you appreciate it.

But her new 290 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:59,560 Speaker 3: album frankly sucks according to the critics, and so the 291 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:01,960 Speaker 3: AFL like, no, we don't want your sucky songs, want 292 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:05,320 Speaker 3: your awesome songs. Anyway, loggerheads, we'll talk to Murray Old's 293 00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:08,440 Speaker 3: about it when he rather is with us in the 294 00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:12,520 Speaker 3: next half hour. It's full twenty five. I am sorry 295 00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:15,000 Speaker 3: to tell you this, but just when we thought that 296 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:18,320 Speaker 3: Tory Farno had done her worst and that was the 297 00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:21,640 Speaker 3: end of that thing, it's not. There's more. So it 298 00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:24,280 Speaker 3: turns out that straight after she filmed that interview with 299 00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 3: Jack Taymee for Q and A, which was a train wreck, 300 00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:29,840 Speaker 3: she went onto a podcast immediately afterwards. That's a wise 301 00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 3: thing to do, isn't it. I Mean, when you've had 302 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:33,440 Speaker 3: an absolute train wreck of an interview, the best thing 303 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 3: to do after that is go and give another go 304 00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:38,920 Speaker 3: and give another interview. And Tory makes brilliant decisions. So 305 00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 3: that's what she did. And when she was on the podcast, 306 00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:44,439 Speaker 3: she talked about the interview that was a train wreck 307 00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 3: and how it didn't go well with Jack. 308 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:49,720 Speaker 8: I think I was just exhausted. I let my guard 309 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:52,319 Speaker 8: down and then it just sort of, you know, usually 310 00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:54,679 Speaker 8: just takes one moment, one mistake, and then it all 311 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:56,559 Speaker 8: goes downhill from there, which is what happened. 312 00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:59,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, but Tory would know about that. Tory would know 313 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:00,800 Speaker 3: that it usually just takes one moment, because she has 314 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:04,280 Speaker 3: had quite a few of those. She explains why it 315 00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 3: was that she told us that she'd sold her car 316 00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:11,040 Speaker 3: to pay the bills, when she hadn't actually sold her 317 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:14,319 Speaker 3: car to pay the bills. It was a slip up. 318 00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:17,560 Speaker 8: When I make little slip ups about selling my car, 319 00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:22,160 Speaker 8: which is so unintentional. I just I do beat myself 320 00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:24,960 Speaker 8: up a little bit about that, because silly little mistakes 321 00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:27,120 Speaker 8: really really disappoint me. 322 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:27,480 Speaker 9: Yeah. 323 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:29,160 Speaker 3: I don't know about you, but I often find myself 324 00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 3: just sort of slipping up and telling complete lies. Do 325 00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:33,520 Speaker 3: you do that too, Just just tell people things. It's 326 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:35,840 Speaker 3: just a slip up. I often just it just comes 327 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 3: out of my mouth, lit out of come, what a 328 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:40,440 Speaker 3: slip up? No, that's not true at all. I didn't 329 00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:44,320 Speaker 3: even do that. How weird? Is that unbelievably? She also 330 00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:46,760 Speaker 3: says she didn't expect to be in the public eye 331 00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:48,160 Speaker 3: as much as she has been. 332 00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 8: I kind of thought that mayors sort of flew under 333 00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:53,040 Speaker 8: the radar a lot more, which is kind of why 334 00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:54,680 Speaker 8: I went for counsel in the first place. 335 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:59,000 Speaker 3: I mean, obviously, a lot of the reason why Tory 336 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:02,240 Speaker 3: is in the media because she's drawing media attention to herself. 337 00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 3: She's the second most famous mayor in the country. It's 338 00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 3: Wayne Brown and then her wayn Brown, because he runs 339 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:09,040 Speaker 3: the biggest place. HER's because she's just a moron. And 340 00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:11,040 Speaker 3: you will not believe this. You will not believe this. 341 00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 3: But in the podcast she made another slip up. She 342 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:17,760 Speaker 3: was talking about the Maori Woods referendum and the cost 343 00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:19,560 Speaker 3: of it, and she seemed to suggest that she was 344 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 3: open to breaking the law and just completely ignoring the 345 00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:24,600 Speaker 3: central government's instruction to hold a referendum. 346 00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:29,200 Speaker 8: We've been told, well, that's essentially breaking the law. That 347 00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:32,520 Speaker 8: might be a fine, and we're like, well, what's the fine? 348 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:37,800 Speaker 3: Right, So this afternoon the Council had to clarify that statement. 349 00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:38,400 Speaker 2: Because of course it did. 350 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 3: Her office said the mayor was not inferring that we 351 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 3: should disregard the change's handed down from central government, except 352 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 3: that is exactly what she was doing. Lord, can they 353 00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:51,360 Speaker 3: make it Tory, stop giving interviews for the love of God, 354 00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:54,760 Speaker 3: still want to run for mayor next time? Actually keep 355 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 3: giving interviews because then hopefully it won't happen. 356 00:15:56,640 --> 00:16:07,040 Speaker 10: Headlines Next, the day's newsmakers talk to Heather first. 357 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:11,120 Speaker 1: Heather duplicy Allen drive with one New Zealand Let's get 358 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 1: connected news talk z be. 359 00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:16,640 Speaker 2: Sill, bregod. 360 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:23,640 Speaker 5: Baby blame Wow. 361 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:27,240 Speaker 3: Cory Fano slips up so spectacularly while sober.

I don't know why, but I'm liking that Luckxson's 697 00:30:57,360 --> 00:31:00,400 Speaker 3: getting more grumpy with the media. Hither. I agree with 698 00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:02,640 Speaker 3: barryt's time that the Prime Minister stopped pandering to the 699 00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:05,240 Speaker 3: media the childish and vindictive. I enjoyed Barry's comments on 700 00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 3: it tonight. Look, here's there is a line on this 701 00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:11,840 Speaker 3: to walk like. He should push back, but he should 702 00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:15,760 Speaker 3: only push back so much because if you don't push back, 703 00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:18,520 Speaker 3: because what was going on before was at the press gallery, 704 00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:21,960 Speaker 3: which is super hostile, which is berating luxon and because 705 00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:24,080 Speaker 3: he was absorbing it all, he just looked weak. He 706 00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:26,720 Speaker 3: looked like he was weak and sort of being bullied 707 00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:28,680 Speaker 3: by a bunch of children. That's not a good look. 708 00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:31,080 Speaker 3: But then if you take it too far and you're 709 00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:33,560 Speaker 3: too shirty, then you start to look defensive and like 710 00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:35,880 Speaker 3: you're under too much pressure. And so there's a kind 711 00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:37,560 Speaker 3: of like line that he needs to walk on this 712 00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:41,960 Speaker 3: where he pushes back firmly and tells them cut the crap, basically, 713 00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:45,080 Speaker 3: but without looking like he's the one who's actually losing 714 00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:48,880 Speaker 3: his mind here. So you know, I just am not 715 00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:51,720 Speaker 3: convinced he's striking that balance just yet. But hey, let's 716 00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,959 Speaker 3: see how it plays out over time. Anthony Albanize, he's 717 00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:58,880 Speaker 3: just announced that he is not going to get held, sorry, 718 00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:01,360 Speaker 3: not going to get married before the next federal election. 719 00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:03,600 Speaker 3: The next federal election is due by May next year, 720 00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:06,520 Speaker 3: and there had been speculation he would, you know, get 721 00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:10,240 Speaker 3: married in advance and then get a little bit publicity blip. 722 00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:12,360 Speaker 3: Everybody loves, you know, a couple of boomers getting married 723 00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:14,840 Speaker 3: to each other ahead of an election's great. Look, you know, yay, 724 00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:17,120 Speaker 3: happy happy days. Now I want to vote for him 725 00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:18,840 Speaker 3: because he's made an honest woman at her all that 726 00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:21,959 Speaker 3: kind of stuff. But now, no, apparently he doesn't have 727 00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:23,840 Speaker 3: time in his diary. And the reason he doesn't have 728 00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:25,560 Speaker 3: time in his diary is because he's got a hell 729 00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:27,680 Speaker 3: of a fight on his hands, isn't he He's going 730 00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:30,480 Speaker 3: to have to focus. There's no time. There's no time 731 00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:32,640 Speaker 3: for a honeymoon or planning wedding stuff. And you know 732 00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:34,720 Speaker 3: how women are, We're all like, do you want the 733 00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:37,240 Speaker 3: bows around the chairs to be purple or pink and 734 00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:40,160 Speaker 3: we'll just not cope with that while losing an election. 735 00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:42,719 Speaker 3: So fair enough. Now we're going to talk to Mike 736 00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:48,440 Speaker 3: Mitchell next about the Sandy Costa business because obviously obviously 737 00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:49,960 Speaker 3: they've given him a job to get him out of 738 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:51,400 Speaker 3: the other job, because they were like, you've got to 739 00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:53,600 Speaker 3: get out of the police commissioner's job. This is not working. 740 00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:55,480 Speaker 3: We'll put that to Mark when he's with us. Shortly, 741 00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:59,160 Speaker 3: Jeffrey Miller, foreign policy analyst, is going to talk us 742 00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:01,640 Speaker 3: through what's going on in the Middle East with the 743 00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:04,000 Speaker 3: air strikes on Lebanon. It's pretty clear we're getting much 744 00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:07,200 Speaker 3: much closer to full on war. And then also looks 745 00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:09,720 Speaker 3: like fire guys in Christchurch have managed to figure out 746 00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:12,719 Speaker 3: where the Porthill's fire on Valentine's Day this year started. 747 00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:15,640 Speaker 3: They found the house, they found the specific place it started. 748 00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:17,920 Speaker 3: We'll have a chat to them shortly.

I mean, obviously Nicholas is forming 762 00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:10,040 Speaker 24: the Social Investment Agency because that's a critical that's a 763 00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:13,240 Speaker 24: cornerstone for us. Us actually is in government, is to 764 00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:17,320 Speaker 24: start to deal with all these really difficult intergenerational social 765 00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:19,720 Speaker 24: issues that we need to deal with as a country. 766 00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:22,400 Speaker 24: The Social Investment Agency's got a big role to play. 767 00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:25,319 Speaker 24: And I think that, you know, Andy Costa, when you 768 00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:28,040 Speaker 24: look at his background and his experience, he's the perfect 769 00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:28,759 Speaker 24: fit for that role. 770 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:30,719 Speaker 3: Look, I know you're not you're not going to agree 771 00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:34,960 Speaker 3: with me because you can't. But he wasn't that good 772 00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:37,960 Speaker 3: as the Police commissioner, So why would he be good 773 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:38,560 Speaker 3: at this job? 774 00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:42,880 Speaker 24: Well, he was, in all fairness to the commissioner is 775 00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:45,919 Speaker 24: a change with a changing Obviously, in opposition, we felt 776 00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:48,720 Speaker 24: like labor had completely taken us in the wrong direction 777 00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:51,279 Speaker 24: in terms of public safety, and they had without a doubt. 778 00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:54,960 Speaker 24: We've gone backwards on every measure. There's a lot of 779 00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:58,320 Speaker 24: work to do. We're slowly starting to turn that around. However, 780 00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:00,439 Speaker 24: in all fairness to the Commissioner, he had to serve 781 00:35:00,480 --> 00:35:03,160 Speaker 24: the government of the day as the incoming national government, 782 00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:04,240 Speaker 24: as the incoming minister. 783 00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:05,640 Speaker 23: I sent out. 784 00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:07,040 Speaker 24: A leader of expectation. 785 00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:08,200 Speaker 9: I released that publicly. 786 00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:11,080 Speaker 24: It was very clear in terms of what I wanted done, 787 00:35:11,239 --> 00:35:13,400 Speaker 24: and he has responded to that. So in all fenus 788 00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:15,960 Speaker 24: there's been a real change in the way that gang 789 00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:18,680 Speaker 24: convoys or police. We haven't had any of our provincial 790 00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:22,200 Speaker 24: or rural towns taken over by gangs. They've been hammering 791 00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:25,879 Speaker 24: and doing running operations against the boy racers. We're really 792 00:35:25,880 --> 00:35:28,160 Speaker 24: getting stuck into the retail crime.

You know, every 794 00:35:32,719 --> 00:35:36,120 Speaker 24: single common chero in the country's got currently facing charges. 795 00:35:36,640 --> 00:35:40,600 Speaker 24: So he has actually responded well to that letter of expectation. 796 00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:42,279 Speaker 3: Yeah, I kind of feel like this is more of 797 00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:46,000 Speaker 3: his Wheelhouse like the way that he approaches crime, this 798 00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:48,359 Speaker 3: is where he needs to be, he might actually. 799 00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:50,120 Speaker 2: Listen. 800 00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:52,160 Speaker 24: I agree with you entirely, and I think that when 801 00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:55,160 Speaker 24: you know, I worked with him when he was Deputy 802 00:35:55,239 --> 00:35:58,160 Speaker 24: CEO IT Justice and ized the Associate Minister of Justice 803 00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:01,239 Speaker 24: in the last National government, very good in that role. 804 00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:04,000 Speaker 24: You know, I've enjoyed working with them in my role 805 00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:06,560 Speaker 24: as Police Minister, and I enjoy and I'll enjoy working 806 00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:07,200 Speaker 24: with him this role. 807 00:36:07,239 --> 00:36:07,880 Speaker 9: But I agree with you. 808 00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:10,560 Speaker 24: I think that he's got the strategic sort of oversight 809 00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:11,960 Speaker 24: in terms of what we need to do, but he's 810 00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:14,840 Speaker 24: also very much in tune with the operational stuff and 811 00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:18,080 Speaker 24: the stuff, you know, the front line stuff, and an 812 00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:20,719 Speaker 24: understanding of where we need to target our resources and 813 00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:23,160 Speaker 24: efforts and in terms of getting stuck at and starting 814 00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:25,000 Speaker 24: to deal with some of the intergenerational art that we 815 00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:26,400 Speaker 24: see in this country. 816 00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:28,400 Speaker 3: So who are you going to pick?

And I'll run 826 00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:56,760 Speaker 3: you through those boys details when I get a chances 827 00:36:56,760 --> 00:37:01,480 Speaker 3: to eleven passed five escalation in the Middle East overnight 828 00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:04,520 Speaker 3: with Israeli air strikes on Lebanon killing around five hundred 829 00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:06,640 Speaker 3: people and thirty five of them were kids, and a 830 00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:10,000 Speaker 3: whole bunch more thousands were injured. Israel attacked hundreds of 831 00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:13,120 Speaker 3: Hezbola weapons storage facilities, leading them to the deadliest day 832 00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:15,960 Speaker 3: since the Civil War in nineteen ninety. Now. Jeffrey Miller 833 00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:17,680 Speaker 3: is a geopolitical analyst. 834 00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:19,480 Speaker 25: Hey, Jeffrey, good evening, Heather. 835 00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:21,759 Speaker 3: Is it inevitable that they are headed for a full 836 00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:22,359 Speaker 3: scale war? 837 00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:26,080 Speaker 25: Look, I think we've been heading this way since October 838 00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:29,040 Speaker 25: the seventh last year, October the eighth, when the first 839 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:33,360 Speaker 25: air strikes from Lebanon really began, the rocket attacks from Lebanon, 840 00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:37,759 Speaker 25: And you know, unfortunately, there has been a level of 841 00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:41,600 Speaker 25: inevitability about this, and this just takes up a notch 842 00:37:41,680 --> 00:37:44,680 Speaker 25: further though. I mean, it's a huge death toll in 843 00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:48,080 Speaker 25: a single day, almost five hundred people killed. You know, 844 00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:51,000 Speaker 25: to put that in context, in the entire thirty four 845 00:37:51,080 --> 00:37:53,360 Speaker 25: day war back in two thousand and six between Israel 846 00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:57,800 Speaker 25: than Lebanon, thirteen hundred Lebanese individuals were killed. 847 00:37:57,840 --> 00:37:59,960 Speaker 23: So we're already at a third of that on more 848 00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:01,799 Speaker 23: more than a third in just a single day. 849 00:38:01,960 --> 00:38:04,000 Speaker 3: What happens next? Do you think that there's retaliation? 850 00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:09,640 Speaker 25: Look, we've been waiting for retaliation since July really when 851 00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:15,080 Speaker 25: the Habela commander for Sugar was killed. Israel killed another 852 00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:17,880 Speaker 25: one last week in the aftermath of those Paiterer attacks. 853 00:38:17,880 --> 00:38:21,040 Speaker 25: I mean, there's plenty of reasons for retaliation from his 854 00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:24,280 Speaker 25: and from Iran directly, and I think there are various 855 00:38:24,280 --> 00:38:28,520 Speaker 25: plans that are being made, but yet they're unable to 856 00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:32,040 Speaker 25: carry them out. Israel has very very good intelligence. Clearly 857 00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:37,280 Speaker 25: they conducted thirteen hundred strikes yesterday, or they attacked thirteen 858 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:40,520 Speaker 25: hundred targets. I should say they've got very good intelligence. 859 00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:43,799 Speaker 25: They know what they're looking for, and as we saw 860 00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:46,600 Speaker 25: last week with those pager attacks, they're not afraid now 861 00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:49,600 Speaker 25: to the audacious. So I don't think it's through a 862 00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:54,560 Speaker 25: lack of a lack of desire that his Bila. 863 00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:59,160 Speaker 23: Is not responding to what Israel is doing here. 864 00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:01,400 Speaker 25: But they're just being fowled at every turn, and I 865 00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:03,960 Speaker 25: think that's preps the risk here for Israel in the 866 00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:07,320 Speaker 25: end his BLA, if they keept trying, they will probably 867 00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:09,759 Speaker 25: break through and then we end up with the all 868 00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:13,160 Speaker 25: out war between Israel and his BLA that we've been 869 00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:16,600 Speaker 25: trying to avoid. So I think dangerous times ahead. 870 00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:18,440 Speaker 23: It does seem all very ominous. 871 00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:19,440 Speaker 9: It already is bad. 872 00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:20,960 Speaker 23: It is a very bad situation. 873 00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:23,000 Speaker 25: It could only get worse. And I think we also 874 00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:25,800 Speaker 25: need to remember that his Bela is not Hermas. Hisbela 875 00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:28,719 Speaker 25: is very very well armed, very very well capable. They're 876 00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:32,040 Speaker 25: much closer to Iran by the virtue of being a 877 00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:36,120 Speaker 25: sheer group. They've got fifty thousand fighters, one hundred and 878 00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:40,200 Speaker 25: fifty thousand rockets, and they're more They're better armed than 879 00:39:40,239 --> 00:39:43,040 Speaker 25: many many governments, many states are in the Middle East. 880 00:39:43,080 --> 00:39:44,520 Speaker 23: So it's a different kettle of fish here. 881 00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:47,919 Speaker 3: Yeah, altogether, Hey, thank you very much, Jeffrey appreciated. Jeffrey Miller, 882 00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:49,200 Speaker 3: geopolitical analyst. 883 00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:51,240 Speaker 2: Whatever dul either. 884 00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:53,600 Speaker 3: I've got a mate who looks after property for a 885 00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:56,920 Speaker 3: government department who moved into new premises on the first 886 00:39:56,960 --> 00:39:59,480 Speaker 3: of July. So what's that August September, so coming up 887 00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:03,760 Speaker 3: three months, still has twenty six access cards not collected 888 00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:06,439 Speaker 3: by people who haven't been in once yet. So get 889 00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:09,120 Speaker 3: those lazy civil servants back to work, Jews. I'm here 890 00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:09,319 Speaker 3: for that. 891 00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:09,600 Speaker 2: Al. 892 00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:12,200 Speaker 3: I love that this thing has got some legs. Remember 893 00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:13,840 Speaker 3: last week we were just like, do you know what, 894 00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:15,800 Speaker 3: they should go back to work? And this week what's happened. 895 00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:18,640 Speaker 3: They're going back to work. Happy days Now he want 896 00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:21,160 Speaker 3: some economic growth, Go to Gisbon. That's where it's at. 897 00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:24,839 Speaker 3: ASB has just released its latest regional Economic scorecard, and 898 00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:27,319 Speaker 3: this basically ranks regions based on their annual growth and 899 00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:30,040 Speaker 3: employment and they're building consents and their retail sales and 900 00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:32,520 Speaker 3: so on. And for the last quarter, which is the 901 00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:36,000 Speaker 3: three months to June, it's been mostly bleak across the board, 902 00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:39,560 Speaker 3: but Gisbon is awesome. Its construction consents are up forty 903 00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:43,000 Speaker 3: one percent year on year, house sales growth second highest 904 00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:45,319 Speaker 3: in the country, up twenty six percent, and this is 905 00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:48,360 Speaker 3: obviously because of the rebuilt after cyclone. Gabrielle took the 906 00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:50,440 Speaker 3: spot in the top spot in the country for the 907 00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:54,560 Speaker 3: first time in four years. Auckland is ninth equal big mortgages. 908 00:40:54,600 --> 00:40:57,000 Speaker 3: That's the problem. That's why Auckland has a hit harder 909 00:40:57,000 --> 00:40:59,760 Speaker 3: by the high interest rates. Wellington is the fourteenth equal 910 00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:03,360 Speaker 3: sector carts plus everything else is really hit them.

Excuse me, Dave Stackhouse 946 00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:48,919 Speaker 3: is fire an emergencies district commander and with us. Hey, Dave, 947 00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:52,920 Speaker 3: good evening, Well, thank you. So where did it start? 948 00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:54,600 Speaker 9: Me? 949 00:42:54,640 --> 00:43:00,279 Speaker 26: As I said, it's started fifteen meters from Worsley's there 950 00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:03,160 Speaker 26: into an area of five meters by five meters. So 951 00:43:03,239 --> 00:43:07,600 Speaker 26: we've tracked down the point of origin. But unfortunately the 952 00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:10,400 Speaker 26: point of origin of the fire is on private property, 953 00:43:10,480 --> 00:43:12,360 Speaker 26: so we aren't disclosing the exact location. 954 00:43:12,520 --> 00:43:14,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, and the person who owns the property is actually 955 00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:18,680 Speaker 3: working with you guys, right, they're not a suspect, that's correct. 956 00:43:19,239 --> 00:43:22,400 Speaker 26: We interviewed the property owner three times and he was 957 00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:25,360 Speaker 26: cooperative throughout the entire investigation and. 958 00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:28,279 Speaker 3: No idea what started it. 959 00:43:28,280 --> 00:43:31,359 Speaker 26: It's just the investigators worked pretty hard obviously there. You know, 960 00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:35,200 Speaker 26: we understand the public interest in this fire is with 961 00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:40,080 Speaker 26: all of our investigations, but we have to have enough 962 00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:43,480 Speaker 26: evidence to satisfy a removal of all the ignition factors, 963 00:43:43,480 --> 00:43:46,560 Speaker 26: and we're looking for that positive ignition factor and we 964 00:43:46,560 --> 00:43:48,719 Speaker 26: weren't able to determine it in this case. 965 00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:50,080 Speaker 3: Property owner has no idea. 966 00:43:52,360 --> 00:43:55,760 Speaker 26: He was on scene at the time or just prior 967 00:43:55,760 --> 00:43:58,719 Speaker 26: to the ignition, then realized there was a fire there 968 00:43:58,719 --> 00:44:01,200 Speaker 26: when he saw it one on one, so he did 969 00:44:01,239 --> 00:44:04,160 Speaker 26: the right thing. And as I said, he's cooperated with 970 00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:07,319 Speaker 26: the New Zealand Police and Foreign Emergency during the investigation. 971 00:44:07,760 --> 00:44:10,640 Speaker 3: Dave, is it a part of the property that other 972 00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:11,480 Speaker 3: people can access? 973 00:44:11,520 --> 00:44:11,680 Speaker 9: You know? 974 00:44:11,719 --> 00:44:13,480 Speaker 3: Can you walk off the road onto the property or 975 00:44:13,480 --> 00:44:14,120 Speaker 3: something like that? 976 00:44:15,400 --> 00:44:18,880 Speaker 26: Where's the tracks? Quite well, all the tracks around the 977 00:44:18,880 --> 00:44:22,000 Speaker 26: portals are widely used the mountain bikers and walking and 978 00:44:22,120 --> 00:44:26,960 Speaker 26: running tracks, So where's the track and road as widely 979 00:44:27,040 --> 00:44:29,080 Speaker 26: used by the public throughout the year. 980 00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:31,319 Speaker 3: So am I right in thinking this is the end 981 00:44:31,360 --> 00:44:33,359 Speaker 3: of the investigation. You've taken it as far as you can. 982 00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:35,400 Speaker 3: If there's more info, you'll take another look at it. 983 00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:40,600 Speaker 26: Yeah, well, we've said as the classified is undetermined, but 984 00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:43,560 Speaker 26: if further evidence comes to light, New Zealand Police and 985 00:44:43,640 --> 00:44:48,000 Speaker 26: Foreign Emergency will reopen it and examine that evidence and 986 00:44:48,080 --> 00:44:49,960 Speaker 26: see what comes from that good stuff. 987 00:44:49,960 --> 00:44:52,040 Speaker 3: Hey, Dave, thanks very much and hopefully something does come 988 00:44:52,080 --> 00:44:55,120 Speaker 3: to like this, Dave Stackhouse. The District Commander Fire and Emergency, 989 00:44:55,160 --> 00:44:58,320 Speaker 3: Chloe Swarbrick, is going to be with us in fifteen minutes. 990 00:44:58,360 --> 00:45:00,160 Speaker 3: I'm dying to ask her whether she actually I think 991 00:45:00,239 --> 00:45:02,760 Speaker 3: she's got the seventy five percent to kick Darlene out. 992 00:45:03,440 --> 00:45:05,719 Speaker 3: So bearwith we'll get there shortly five to twenty one. 993 00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:08,880 Speaker 1: The name you trust to get the answers you need 994 00:45:09,040 --> 00:45:11,680 Speaker 1: and a dup to see Allen drive with one New 995 00:45:11,800 --> 00:45:14,600 Speaker 1: Zealand let's get connected and new talk as they'd be. 996 00:45:14,800 --> 00:45:17,120 Speaker 3: It's three four past five. Listen. There's been a fair 997 00:45:17,160 --> 00:45:19,319 Speaker 3: bit of speculation around the place in the last day 998 00:45:19,440 --> 00:45:21,759 Speaker 3: or so as to where the Madison Ashton, who is 999 00:45:21,760 --> 00:45:24,719 Speaker 3: the Hooker mistress, would have changed the jury's decision in 1000 00:45:24,760 --> 00:45:28,520 Speaker 3: the Philip Polkinghorn trial had she appeared. And the answer 1001 00:45:28,560 --> 00:45:32,360 Speaker 3: is obviously no. I mean suggesting anything otherwise is just 1002 00:45:32,440 --> 00:45:35,400 Speaker 3: mischief making, isn't it. So the fact is that Madison 1003 00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:38,960 Speaker 3: Ashton is what you would call an unreliable witness, and 1004 00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:42,640 Speaker 3: that is a polite way of describing the woman. There 1005 00:45:42,680 --> 00:45:44,719 Speaker 3: are people in the world who are straight up and 1006 00:45:44,760 --> 00:45:46,600 Speaker 3: down right and when if they sat in front of 1007 00:45:46,640 --> 00:45:48,400 Speaker 3: a jury, the jury would believe every single word that 1008 00:45:48,440 --> 00:45:50,120 Speaker 3: came out of their mouths. And then there are others 1009 00:45:50,680 --> 00:45:53,480 Speaker 3: who are jury I would venture would struggle to believe 1010 00:45:53,640 --> 00:45:56,279 Speaker 3: or take seriously, and unfortunately for Madison Ashton, I think 1011 00:45:56,320 --> 00:45:58,640 Speaker 3: she's one of them. Just have a look at what 1012 00:45:58,680 --> 00:46:01,239 Speaker 3: she's been telling the newspaper in the last day or so. 1013 00:46:01,800 --> 00:46:05,479 Speaker 3: First of all, she refused to appear in court, she says, 1014 00:46:05,520 --> 00:46:08,520 Speaker 3: because she felt the police had disrespected her. I mean, 1015 00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:11,400 Speaker 3: can you believe the gaul of it. It's not a 1016 00:46:11,480 --> 00:46:14,800 Speaker 3: quiz show appearance. It's a murder trial. It's one of 1017 00:46:14,840 --> 00:46:17,319 Speaker 3: the most serious charges that a society can level at someone. 1018 00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:19,440 Speaker 3: And Madison doesn't want to turn up because the boys 1019 00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:21,799 Speaker 3: in Blue hurt her feelings. Give me a break. And 1020 00:46:21,840 --> 00:46:24,080 Speaker 3: then she says that she was very serious about the 1021 00:46:24,120 --> 00:46:26,080 Speaker 3: whole thing, praying for a guilty verdict, but the cops 1022 00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:28,640 Speaker 3: watched the trial because they didn't take her seriously and 1023 00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:31,320 Speaker 3: didn't use her to wear a wire right, which suggests 1024 00:46:31,400 --> 00:46:33,640 Speaker 3: she cares deeply. But then when they do come to 1025 00:46:33,680 --> 00:46:35,200 Speaker 3: her and give her a summons and ask her for 1026 00:46:35,239 --> 00:46:37,839 Speaker 3: help by appearing in courts, suddenly she doesn't appear that much, 1027 00:46:38,040 --> 00:46:41,879 Speaker 3: and she goes on Hollybops in Europe, and then and 1028 00:46:41,960 --> 00:46:45,080 Speaker 3: then she claims that she and Philip Pulkinhorn were going 1029 00:46:45,160 --> 00:46:48,760 Speaker 3: to get married and have children. The woman is forty nine. 1030 00:46:49,360 --> 00:46:50,960 Speaker 2: I mean, come. 1031 00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:54,920 Speaker 3: Off it, lady. That's not a believable story, is it? Honestly? 1032 00:46:55,680 --> 00:46:57,680 Speaker 3: Based on what she said to the media that has 1033 00:46:57,719 --> 00:47:00,719 Speaker 3: been published, I don't feel like she have changed the 1034 00:47:00,760 --> 00:47:02,800 Speaker 3: outcome of that trial at all. I feel like the 1035 00:47:02,880 --> 00:47:05,520 Speaker 3: jury would have sat there and listened to her and 1036 00:47:05,680 --> 00:47:07,799 Speaker 3: just disregarded a whole bunch of stuff, don't you think. 1037 00:47:07,840 --> 00:47:10,399 Speaker 3: And I can't help but feel that what she's doing 1038 00:47:10,480 --> 00:47:12,600 Speaker 3: right now, which is to talk to everybody like didn't 1039 00:47:12,600 --> 00:47:15,000 Speaker 3: want to talk to the jury, the most important eleven 1040 00:47:15,040 --> 00:47:17,400 Speaker 3: people in this whole thing, we're happy to talk to 1041 00:47:17,400 --> 00:47:20,319 Speaker 3: everybody else right now, is self serving, isn't it. I mean, 1042 00:47:20,600 --> 00:47:23,399 Speaker 3: tell you what, running yourself a little private business? How 1043 00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:25,120 Speaker 3: about this for some free pr. 1044 00:47:25,640 --> 00:47:27,719 Speaker 2: Heather do for ce Ellen Heather. 1045 00:47:27,800 --> 00:47:30,000 Speaker 3: From a cops point of view, Richard Chambers all the 1046 00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:32,640 Speaker 3: way hither as a current police officer over twenty years 1047 00:47:32,680 --> 00:47:35,359 Speaker 3: frontline service, it has got to be Richard Chambers here 1048 00:47:35,440 --> 00:47:38,200 Speaker 3: the cost and may have mixed feelings about departing, but 1049 00:47:38,239 --> 00:47:40,120 Speaker 3: I can tell you the frontline definitely doesn't. This is 1050 00:47:40,160 --> 00:47:42,439 Speaker 3: great news. I would have absolutely believe it. I think 1051 00:47:42,520 --> 00:47:45,960 Speaker 3: Richard Chambers may be the dude he's been. It was 1052 00:47:46,080 --> 00:47:48,520 Speaker 3: Richard and who was it? It was somebody else, wasn't it? 1053 00:47:48,560 --> 00:47:51,279 Speaker 3: Who was in the running? I can't remember the other 1054 00:47:51,320 --> 00:47:53,440 Speaker 3: Chap's name for a little while there, and then they 1055 00:47:53,480 --> 00:47:55,520 Speaker 3: both went off. Oh it was a lady I think actually, 1056 00:47:56,120 --> 00:47:57,960 Speaker 3: to be fair, and then the two of them went 1057 00:47:58,000 --> 00:48:02,000 Speaker 3: off and off. It took a Sue. Was it Sue Schwalga? Laura? 1058 00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:04,120 Speaker 3: Was that who it was? Anyway? It was the two 1059 00:48:04,160 --> 00:48:06,640 Speaker 3: of their names. I think it was Sue. Two of 1060 00:48:06,680 --> 00:48:10,200 Speaker 3: them went off on international postings, and he's the only 1061 00:48:10,239 --> 00:48:13,440 Speaker 3: one who He's still at Interpol, but he is still 1062 00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:16,319 Speaker 3: in the mix. And so you've got to say that 1063 00:48:16,360 --> 00:48:18,680 Speaker 3: you feel like Richard is the guy probably going to 1064 00:48:18,719 --> 00:48:21,520 Speaker 3: get the job. He's got a lot of frontline experience, 1065 00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:23,880 Speaker 3: a lot of experience in the field, and I feel 1066 00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:25,880 Speaker 3: I feel like the boys in Blue need that, do 1067 00:48:25,920 --> 00:48:27,640 Speaker 3: you know what I mean?

Actually 1127 00:51:23,360 --> 00:51:25,920 Speaker 27: with an unprecedented situation, we have never been in a 1128 00:51:25,960 --> 00:51:29,400 Speaker 27: situation before where we have had somebody who has been 1129 00:51:29,400 --> 00:51:31,319 Speaker 27: elected on the Green Party list who we have come 1130 00:51:31,320 --> 00:51:33,400 Speaker 27: to the conclusion is unfit to be a member of parliament, 1131 00:51:33,480 --> 00:51:35,160 Speaker 27: yet is intent on sticking around. 1132 00:51:36,080 --> 00:51:38,759 Speaker 3: If your delegates do say yes, how fast can you 1133 00:51:38,840 --> 00:51:39,319 Speaker 3: remove her? 1134 00:51:40,480 --> 00:51:43,640 Speaker 27: So, as I understand the legislation as it presently sits, 1135 00:51:43,840 --> 00:51:47,520 Speaker 27: is that subsequence to that SGM and our delegates giving 1136 00:51:47,560 --> 00:51:49,680 Speaker 27: that endorsement. If that were should be the case, then 1137 00:51:49,719 --> 00:51:52,760 Speaker 27: we would write a letter to the speaker. And actually 1138 00:51:52,840 --> 00:51:56,000 Speaker 27: the legislation is relatively silent on how quickly the Speaker 1139 00:51:56,000 --> 00:51:57,839 Speaker 27: would then need to move, but that would sit within 1140 00:51:57,880 --> 00:52:01,120 Speaker 27: his discretion, and as I understand it, things could move 1141 00:52:01,200 --> 00:52:04,520 Speaker 27: relatively quickly, especially given that Darlene has already resigned herself 1142 00:52:04,560 --> 00:52:05,720 Speaker 27: as a member of the Green Party. 1143 00:52:05,760 --> 00:52:06,799 Speaker 3: And then what do you think she's going to do. 1144 00:52:06,840 --> 00:52:08,160 Speaker 3: Is she's just going to take this one lying down? 1145 00:52:08,200 --> 00:52:09,200 Speaker 3: Or she challenged you again. 1146 00:52:10,680 --> 00:52:13,400 Speaker 27: Look, I've kind of given up on estimating what Darlene 1147 00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:16,319 Speaker 27: Tana will do. What we've been focused on is consistently 1148 00:52:16,400 --> 00:52:19,000 Speaker 27: continuing to perch our values at the forefront. 1149 00:52:18,640 --> 00:52:22,640 Speaker 3: Of ye with integrity. You should be thinking about this 1150 00:52:22,719 --> 00:52:25,279 Speaker 3: because this is her humans, because it's but this is 1151 00:52:25,400 --> 00:52:27,400 Speaker 3: I this is making this makes you guys look like 1152 00:52:27,440 --> 00:52:28,760 Speaker 3: idiots in public? 1153 00:52:29,800 --> 00:52:31,839 Speaker 27: Well I think you are. 1154 00:52:32,200 --> 00:52:35,360 Speaker 3: I'm just saying she is making fools of You're in. 1155 00:52:35,400 --> 00:52:38,200 Speaker 27: You're entitled to your freedom of speech here. But look, 1156 00:52:38,640 --> 00:52:41,080 Speaker 27: what I will say is that we have control over 1157 00:52:41,120 --> 00:52:43,520 Speaker 27: what we have control over. And look, as I have 1158 00:52:43,600 --> 00:52:45,440 Speaker 27: found in the last several years that I have been 1159 00:52:45,480 --> 00:52:48,000 Speaker 27: doing this job, and the public arena, everyone is always 1160 00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:49,960 Speaker 27: going to have an opinion on everything that you do. 1161 00:52:50,320 --> 00:52:52,719 Speaker 27: The best that you can do is step with your 1162 00:52:52,800 --> 00:52:56,400 Speaker 27: values at the forefront and act accordingly, and we have 1163 00:52:56,520 --> 00:52:59,839 Speaker 27: consistently done that demonstrating and I think that it makes 1164 00:52:59,840 --> 00:53:03,120 Speaker 27: it pretty clear on that independent investigation, our executive summary 1165 00:53:03,160 --> 00:53:05,400 Speaker 27: that we put out there publicly as to why we 1166 00:53:05,440 --> 00:53:07,799 Speaker 27: have come to that conclusion that Darlian Tanna is not 1167 00:53:07,800 --> 00:53:10,320 Speaker 27: fit to be a member of Parliament, and we've simply 1168 00:53:10,360 --> 00:53:14,040 Speaker 27: been asking for that accountability and that responsibility. And again 1169 00:53:14,200 --> 00:53:16,440 Speaker 27: make the point here that if we were looking for 1170 00:53:16,440 --> 00:53:18,640 Speaker 27: the best possible result, it would be for her to 1171 00:53:18,719 --> 00:53:22,160 Speaker 27: take that accountability and responsibility and to resign herself. But 1172 00:53:22,239 --> 00:53:24,080 Speaker 27: in lieu of doing that, we are stepping through the 1173 00:53:24,120 --> 00:53:27,160 Speaker 27: motions and operating consistently and in line with our values. 1174 00:53:27,480 --> 00:53:29,399 Speaker 3: Are you sure that you shouldn't just let this one go, 1175 00:53:29,680 --> 00:53:32,120 Speaker 3: just leave her up there in siber area, because it 1176 00:53:32,280 --> 00:53:35,440 Speaker 3: just you know, because this could just keep on dragging 1177 00:53:35,440 --> 00:53:36,600 Speaker 3: on and making fools of you. 1178 00:53:38,200 --> 00:53:40,560 Speaker 27: Again, we have control over what we have ConTroll over, 1179 00:53:40,600 --> 00:53:42,719 Speaker 27: and what we have control over is going back to 1180 00:53:42,760 --> 00:53:46,560 Speaker 27: our party membership and saying, let's reconcile with this deeply 1181 00:53:46,760 --> 00:53:49,719 Speaker 27: unusual and for the first time that we've ever been 1182 00:53:49,760 --> 00:53:52,400 Speaker 27: confronted with this situation. A member of Parliament that was 1183 00:53:52,440 --> 00:53:55,720 Speaker 27: elected on our list, noting three hundred and thirty thousand 1184 00:53:55,760 --> 00:53:58,560 Speaker 27: New Zealanders across the country, voted the month's recent election 1185 00:53:58,680 --> 00:54:00,959 Speaker 27: to give the Greens fifteen seats in Parliament to fight 1186 00:54:01,000 --> 00:54:03,359 Speaker 27: for people and planet. We're now down one of those 1187 00:54:03,400 --> 00:54:06,480 Speaker 27: seats and the vote that comes with that seat, but 1188 00:54:06,560 --> 00:54:09,839 Speaker 27: also obviously the kind of proportionality of questions that are 1189 00:54:09,840 --> 00:54:13,239 Speaker 27: afforded in the House, and also the likes of the 1190 00:54:13,280 --> 00:54:15,120 Speaker 27: resources that we have to go out there. 1191 00:54:15,520 --> 00:54:18,120 Speaker 3: Money to engagatically. Want your money back, Chloe had, Well, 1192 00:54:18,160 --> 00:54:19,759 Speaker 3: how do you feel about the fact that there is 1193 00:54:19,800 --> 00:54:22,160 Speaker 3: a wealthy Green Party donor backing her? 1194 00:54:24,320 --> 00:54:27,200 Speaker 27: I am not interested in really speculating on her. If 1195 00:54:27,160 --> 00:54:30,279 Speaker 27: it's backing her, doesn't. 1196 00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:31,600 Speaker 3: It show you that the party's divided on this. 1197 00:54:32,680 --> 00:54:35,080 Speaker 27: I think that you'll find in any given political party 1198 00:54:35,120 --> 00:54:36,719 Speaker 27: that there'll be a difference of opinion, and you could 1199 00:54:36,760 --> 00:54:39,000 Speaker 27: probably find one person on any given issue who will 1200 00:54:39,000 --> 00:54:41,920 Speaker 27: disagree with whatever the leadership's up to. So I'm pretty 1201 00:54:41,920 --> 00:54:42,640 Speaker 27: comfortable with that. 1202 00:54:43,040 --> 00:54:45,560 Speaker 3: Thank you, Chloe, appreciate time.

Just walk a jumper out 1213 00:55:13,800 --> 00:55:14,479 Speaker 28: of here like. 1214 00:55:14,600 --> 00:55:18,040 Speaker 3: But they can't because democracy and it's the Greens I know. 1215 00:55:18,160 --> 00:55:20,239 Speaker 28: But what is she going to do for the next 1216 00:55:20,239 --> 00:55:22,600 Speaker 28: two years? Sit there and just be in. 1217 00:55:22,560 --> 00:55:25,239 Speaker 3: The appeal and just reappeal and just reappeal. 1218 00:55:25,360 --> 00:55:26,480 Speaker 28: It seems ridiculous. 1219 00:55:26,600 --> 00:55:28,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, but if you were in this and listen, you're 1220 00:55:28,560 --> 00:55:31,400 Speaker 3: a politician, Yes, if you were in this position, what 1221 00:55:31,480 --> 00:55:32,000 Speaker 3: would you do? 1222 00:55:32,520 --> 00:55:33,240 Speaker 6: Which position? 1223 00:55:33,600 --> 00:55:36,120 Speaker 3: This position where Darlene is screwing you in public? 1224 00:55:36,280 --> 00:55:36,440 Speaker 17: Oh? 1225 00:55:36,560 --> 00:55:38,400 Speaker 3: I would just if you were Chloe. 1226 00:55:38,160 --> 00:55:41,160 Speaker 28: Find a new lawyer to say they should not be 1227 00:55:41,400 --> 00:55:44,800 Speaker 28: in parliament. I mean she's not in the Green Party anymore, 1228 00:55:44,920 --> 00:55:47,480 Speaker 28: and people voted for the Green Party for MP's and 1229 00:55:47,520 --> 00:55:47,840 Speaker 28: she's not. 1230 00:55:47,920 --> 00:55:49,920 Speaker 3: So would you so at this point you become slightly 1231 00:55:49,960 --> 00:55:52,319 Speaker 3: dictatorial and you say, never mind democracy, We're just going 1232 00:55:52,360 --> 00:55:53,120 Speaker 3: to walk a jumper. 1233 00:55:53,280 --> 00:55:57,920 Speaker 28: No, I think the issue is relationships and apparently that 1234 00:55:58,000 --> 00:56:02,880 Speaker 28: she didn't say the right truthings. It's not about disagreeing 1235 00:56:02,880 --> 00:56:04,480 Speaker 28: on a policy, if it was about a policy something. 1236 00:56:04,920 --> 00:56:07,400 Speaker 3: But Richard, so, yes, they can walk a jump up, 1237 00:56:07,400 --> 00:56:09,799 Speaker 3: but now they are always wanting to go to their delegates, 1238 00:56:09,840 --> 00:56:12,120 Speaker 3: and in the three weeks before they go to their delegates, 1239 00:56:12,160 --> 00:56:14,600 Speaker 3: she appeals again, what do you think, Tim? What should that? 1240 00:56:14,880 --> 00:56:17,240 Speaker 3: Because if you look at the polls, Mate, when Chloe 1241 00:56:17,239 --> 00:56:19,680 Speaker 3: took over, they were sitting fourteen fifteen in the polls, 1242 00:56:19,680 --> 00:56:23,719 Speaker 3: they're now sitting ten and eleven. Because Darlene is hurting them. 1243 00:56:24,200 --> 00:56:26,839 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I think a few things are hurting them. 1244 00:56:26,840 --> 00:56:28,600 Speaker 29: But I've got to say I'm heartened if I hear 1245 00:56:29,480 --> 00:56:33,200 Speaker 29: the Greens leader talking about sun Zu, free speech and 1246 00:56:33,239 --> 00:56:37,200 Speaker 29: accountability and those are fantastic. Those are fantastic concepts. Let's 1247 00:56:37,200 --> 00:56:40,919 Speaker 29: embrace them. And look, I think I think you're right, 1248 00:56:41,000 --> 00:56:43,759 Speaker 29: but I think in terms of in terms of the 1249 00:56:43,800 --> 00:56:46,040 Speaker 29: way that people are going to respond to it if. 1250 00:56:45,840 --> 00:56:49,120 Speaker 5: They do, if they don't go through this process. 1251 00:56:49,520 --> 00:56:53,520 Speaker 29: You've already seen the Pacifica Greens leave and if there's 1252 00:56:53,520 --> 00:56:57,360 Speaker 29: declining support, I do feel like they're cannibalizing their own 1253 00:56:58,040 --> 00:57:01,440 Speaker 29: interior in some ways. So so it's super problematic. I 1254 00:57:01,440 --> 00:57:03,040 Speaker 29: think they do have to do it in public. They 1255 00:57:03,080 --> 00:57:05,319 Speaker 29: do have to get the seventy five percent. Sure she 1256 00:57:05,360 --> 00:57:08,480 Speaker 29: can get a lawyer, but she'll be increasingly isolated and 1257 00:57:08,760 --> 00:57:12,200 Speaker 29: perhaps they'll be able to gather gather some momentum. But 1258 00:57:12,280 --> 00:57:14,520 Speaker 29: again the issue, I think there's a deeper issue there 1259 00:57:14,560 --> 00:57:17,640 Speaker 29: with how Pacifica people feel like they've been treated by 1260 00:57:17,680 --> 00:57:19,360 Speaker 29: that quote unquote democracy. 1261 00:57:19,440 --> 00:57:23,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, they're not loving today, hey, or you guys, you Richard. 1262 00:57:23,080 --> 00:57:25,600 Speaker 3: Auckland Council are going to see the Auckland Council workers 1263 00:57:25,600 --> 00:57:26,720 Speaker 3: back in five days a week. 1264 00:57:27,280 --> 00:57:30,400 Speaker 28: So I saw Verbeck asking, and I'm hoping she's talking 1265 00:57:30,440 --> 00:57:32,920 Speaker 28: to all her members, not just Auckland Council. So I 1266 00:57:33,000 --> 00:57:36,200 Speaker 28: hear a lot of the buildings around the city center 1267 00:57:36,240 --> 00:57:39,560 Speaker 28: are empty or not very full. But with Auckland Council 1268 00:57:39,960 --> 00:57:43,240 Speaker 28: we have about eighty eight percent last month in the 1269 00:57:43,360 --> 00:57:46,600 Speaker 28: city Center building was full. I think Monaco was one 1270 00:57:46,680 --> 00:57:48,080 Speaker 28: hundred and seven percent. 1271 00:57:49,040 --> 00:57:54,240 Speaker 3: Averaging and then you downsized. Yeah, we're downsized size to Mancow. 1272 00:57:54,680 --> 00:57:56,000 Speaker 28: We downsized as a city. 1273 00:57:56,400 --> 00:57:59,080 Speaker 3: Now you downsized your floor size and manecaw for Auckland 1274 00:57:59,120 --> 00:58:00,400 Speaker 3: Council no size. 1275 00:58:00,400 --> 00:58:00,800 Speaker 17: As a city. 1276 00:58:00,800 --> 00:58:03,760 Speaker 28: We're saving about thirty four million dollars by downsizing office spaces. 1277 00:58:03,760 --> 00:58:07,120 Speaker 28: We've moved the CEOs into our building things like that. 1278 00:58:07,200 --> 00:58:10,720 Speaker 3: So why it's full because you've reduced the floor space, 1279 00:58:10,760 --> 00:58:11,000 Speaker 3: isn't it? 1280 00:58:11,400 --> 00:58:13,120 Speaker 28: Well a little bit of that, but also we have 1281 00:58:13,720 --> 00:58:17,320 Speaker 28: our staff and libraries, leisure centers working nights. Yeah, it's 1282 00:58:17,320 --> 00:58:20,040 Speaker 28: not like a perfect system of. 1283 00:58:20,160 --> 00:58:22,360 Speaker 3: Okay, what about I'm talking about the dudes at the desks. 1284 00:58:22,960 --> 00:58:25,680 Speaker 28: The building is like eighty eight percent PIL last month, 1285 00:58:25,840 --> 00:58:28,520 Speaker 28: and the Monaco Albany are all about eighty ninety percent. 1286 00:58:28,600 --> 00:58:31,040 Speaker 28: So people are working from the office. But there's still 1287 00:58:31,960 --> 00:58:35,920 Speaker 28: ability to have flexibility for parents for whatever reason. And 1288 00:58:36,160 --> 00:58:37,919 Speaker 28: I talked to the CEO today and he said they're 1289 00:58:37,920 --> 00:58:41,760 Speaker 28: having no issues with productivity or they don't believe anyone's 1290 00:58:41,840 --> 00:58:45,080 Speaker 28: like taking advantage. It's actually helped people come back to 1291 00:58:45,120 --> 00:58:48,480 Speaker 28: the office earlier if they have that choice because they're 1292 00:58:48,480 --> 00:58:51,200 Speaker 28: able to have a bit more flexibility coming fewer days. 1293 00:58:51,200 --> 00:58:54,080 Speaker 28: So but largely, to be honest, I'm there almost every 1294 00:58:54,160 --> 00:58:57,520 Speaker 28: day because I like, I prefer it. Most councilors are 1295 00:58:57,560 --> 00:59:01,000 Speaker 28: not in every day and most of the floors are full. 1296 00:59:01,080 --> 00:59:01,919 Speaker 17: The cafe is full. 1297 00:59:01,960 --> 00:59:03,960 Speaker 28: That elevators trying to get up if you're in a 1298 00:59:04,040 --> 00:59:07,160 Speaker 28: rush is a bit of a mission sometimes. So I 1299 00:59:07,200 --> 00:59:09,439 Speaker 28: am not seeing an issue from our building. But if 1300 00:59:09,840 --> 00:59:11,600 Speaker 28: the Beck wants to talk to all of their members, 1301 00:59:11,920 --> 00:59:13,680 Speaker 28: if that's an issue. But I don't think it's also 1302 00:59:13,960 --> 00:59:16,840 Speaker 28: up to Auckland Council organ council staff to go out 1303 00:59:16,840 --> 00:59:21,080 Speaker 28: and buy this, you know, only Aukan Council's responsibility to 1304 00:59:21,080 --> 00:59:22,280 Speaker 28: buy stuff in the city center. 1305 00:59:22,320 --> 00:59:24,800 Speaker 3: No, No, it's about leadership and setting an example life because 1306 00:59:24,840 --> 00:59:26,400 Speaker 3: where she was going, Tim, I want your take on it. 1307 00:59:26,400 --> 00:59:28,440 Speaker 3: We'll get it after the break. It's fourteen away from. 1308 00:59:28,320 --> 00:59:33,400 Speaker 1: Six the Huddle with New Zealand Southeby's International Realty elevate 1309 00:59:33,440 --> 00:59:34,680 Speaker 1: the marketing of your home. 1310 00:59:35,000 --> 00:59:37,520 Speaker 3: Right, you're back with the Huddle Richard Hill's and Tim Wilson. Tim, 1311 00:59:37,560 --> 00:59:40,160 Speaker 3: what do you reckon about Auckland Council sending the staff 1312 00:59:40,160 --> 00:59:41,880 Speaker 3: back in yeah. 1313 00:59:41,920 --> 00:59:44,120 Speaker 29: Yeah. Look, I think what we do at maxim as 1314 00:59:44,480 --> 00:59:47,440 Speaker 29: we do four days and at work and one day 1315 00:59:47,440 --> 00:59:50,080 Speaker 29: flexi on a Friday. And I think it's all about productivity, 1316 00:59:50,200 --> 00:59:52,840 Speaker 29: isn't it. It's like, how do people actually produce the 1317 00:59:52,880 --> 00:59:56,920 Speaker 29: most in this at work? Is it at home or 1318 00:59:57,000 --> 00:59:59,560 Speaker 29: is it in the office? And some studies say it's 1319 00:59:59,600 --> 01:00:02,240 Speaker 29: at home? Some studies saying what's what? I thought was 1320 01:00:02,240 --> 01:00:04,320 Speaker 29: really interesting And one of the things I read was 1321 01:00:04,320 --> 01:00:07,840 Speaker 29: that workers aren't very good at assessing where they're the 1322 01:00:07,840 --> 01:00:12,480 Speaker 29: most productive. So it'sing the CEOs are saying they're productive, 1323 01:00:12,720 --> 01:00:13,560 Speaker 29: then that's positive. 1324 01:00:13,640 --> 01:00:13,880 Speaker 5: I do. 1325 01:00:14,040 --> 01:00:16,360 Speaker 29: I do think though, that accountability is a big issue. 1326 01:00:16,360 --> 01:00:19,120 Speaker 5: And I've heard someone someone who. 1327 01:00:19,560 --> 01:00:22,360 Speaker 29: Sort of two steps removed, went in as a manager 1328 01:00:22,400 --> 01:00:24,760 Speaker 29: and found that people were doing ten minutes work and 1329 01:00:24,840 --> 01:00:27,200 Speaker 29: billing for an hour. So you've got to cut that 1330 01:00:27,240 --> 01:00:30,120 Speaker 29: sort of stuff out, like you know, I think, Look, 1331 01:00:30,440 --> 01:00:32,479 Speaker 29: I say, you know what, come in three days a week, 1332 01:00:32,520 --> 01:00:34,600 Speaker 29: but make it easier to sack people who aren't performing. 1333 01:00:34,720 --> 01:00:35,560 Speaker 29: That's the way forward. 1334 01:00:35,840 --> 01:00:37,760 Speaker 3: That's true. Why do you do a Friday though? Why 1335 01:00:37,800 --> 01:00:39,360 Speaker 3: don't you do flexi on a Wednesday? 1336 01:00:41,120 --> 01:00:43,600 Speaker 5: What's what's wrong? What's wrong with well? Wednesday. 1337 01:00:43,640 --> 01:00:45,720 Speaker 29: Wednesdays the day when you got to grit it out, Heather, 1338 01:00:45,880 --> 01:00:46,800 Speaker 29: that's hunt Days. 1339 01:00:46,840 --> 01:00:50,640 Speaker 3: Friday is obviously spending spending time in your car driving 1340 01:00:50,640 --> 01:00:51,800 Speaker 3: to the corimandal, isn't it. 1341 01:00:54,240 --> 01:00:57,120 Speaker 29: No, No, we operate a high trust environment at Maxim Institute. 1342 01:00:57,160 --> 01:00:59,160 Speaker 29: I know they're not driving to the corimandal because I've 1343 01:00:59,200 --> 01:01:00,200 Speaker 29: got ankle bracelets for. 1344 01:01:00,160 --> 01:01:01,200 Speaker 2: The lad of that. 1345 01:01:01,560 --> 01:01:04,840 Speaker 3: It makes absolute sense. Do you think Richard, that Madison 1346 01:01:04,880 --> 01:01:08,560 Speaker 3: Ashton the mistress prostitute? Had she appeared? I mean, isn't 1347 01:01:08,560 --> 01:01:11,320 Speaker 3: that just so salacious? Had she appeared in court, would 1348 01:01:11,320 --> 01:01:12,720 Speaker 3: she have changed the jury's mind? 1349 01:01:12,880 --> 01:01:14,560 Speaker 28: I think I might be one of the only people 1350 01:01:14,640 --> 01:01:18,480 Speaker 28: in New Zealand who has not read or what followed 1351 01:01:18,480 --> 01:01:18,880 Speaker 28: this all. 1352 01:01:18,920 --> 01:01:19,400 Speaker 3: Why not? 1353 01:01:19,520 --> 01:01:23,080 Speaker 28: Because I'm very busy and it seemed like bold. 1354 01:01:22,880 --> 01:01:26,000 Speaker 5: Enough, and because it's good. It's good for it's good 1355 01:01:26,000 --> 01:01:28,320 Speaker 5: for you. Richard, don't follow the details. 1356 01:01:28,400 --> 01:01:32,160 Speaker 29: You're actually a more cheerful, optimistic and hopeful person because 1357 01:01:32,200 --> 01:01:33,320 Speaker 29: you don't know the details. 1358 01:01:33,760 --> 01:01:34,919 Speaker 3: Did you not follow it? 1359 01:01:34,920 --> 01:01:35,760 Speaker 28: It sounded wild? 1360 01:01:35,800 --> 01:01:39,400 Speaker 29: I just know I deliberately avoided it, To be honest, 1361 01:01:39,440 --> 01:01:41,680 Speaker 29: I didn't. I don't want to sit there drawling like 1362 01:01:41,760 --> 01:01:46,280 Speaker 29: some for you about the sexual incontinence, the sadness and 1363 01:01:46,320 --> 01:01:49,160 Speaker 29: the fragility of the rich and miserable. 1364 01:01:49,240 --> 01:01:50,200 Speaker 5: No, thank you. 1365 01:01:50,040 --> 01:01:52,720 Speaker 3: Oh you've shamed us now, Tim, Like, there's no coming back. 1366 01:01:52,760 --> 01:01:55,520 Speaker 29: I can't even can I say that in a funny way? 1367 01:01:56,360 --> 01:01:58,280 Speaker 3: Can you try that? 1368 01:01:58,760 --> 01:02:01,800 Speaker 28: I do imagine if enter the Pole did get hurt too, 1369 01:02:02,200 --> 01:02:06,160 Speaker 28: it would have blown up into this even bigger, ridiculous spectacle. 1370 01:02:06,200 --> 01:02:08,240 Speaker 28: And it does seem odd that it was. I think 1371 01:02:08,240 --> 01:02:10,000 Speaker 28: it's like a podcast and everything now, but. 1372 01:02:10,120 --> 01:02:13,080 Speaker 3: Oh is it a podcast? It's multiple podcasts. You just 1373 01:02:13,120 --> 01:02:19,160 Speaker 3: show how little it's multiple. Holy Hannah. Hey, okay, listen 1374 01:02:19,520 --> 01:02:22,640 Speaker 3: Tim on Andrew Costa, do you have any concerns about 1375 01:02:22,640 --> 01:02:25,720 Speaker 3: the fact that he quite clearly has been given a 1376 01:02:25,760 --> 01:02:28,280 Speaker 3: sweet job to leave the job that we don't want 1377 01:02:28,360 --> 01:02:29,000 Speaker 3: him in anymore. 1378 01:02:31,240 --> 01:02:33,720 Speaker 29: Look, maybe I'm a bit nay, but I think he's 1379 01:02:34,800 --> 01:02:38,160 Speaker 29: he's proved a great deal of leadership within the police. 1380 01:02:38,200 --> 01:02:38,360 Speaker 26: Now. 1381 01:02:38,600 --> 01:02:41,040 Speaker 29: It probably goes back to as my understanding is that 1382 01:02:41,120 --> 01:02:44,200 Speaker 29: the police commissioner pretty much has to execute what the 1383 01:02:44,240 --> 01:02:46,040 Speaker 29: government determines his policy. 1384 01:02:46,200 --> 01:02:49,240 Speaker 5: So under under Labor, he did what they what they wanted. 1385 01:02:49,280 --> 01:02:51,920 Speaker 29: I actually think he showed leadership during the parliamentary protest 1386 01:02:51,960 --> 01:02:54,760 Speaker 29: because he went and engaged with the protesters, which is 1387 01:02:54,800 --> 01:02:57,920 Speaker 29: something that almost no one come in our political class 1388 01:02:59,200 --> 01:02:59,960 Speaker 29: did stop it. 1389 01:03:00,000 --> 01:03:03,400 Speaker 3: If you don't move you, I'm going to tell your 1390 01:03:03,400 --> 01:03:05,880 Speaker 3: cars today And then the next day he'd be like, no, 1391 01:03:05,960 --> 01:03:06,600 Speaker 3: I really. 1392 01:03:06,400 --> 01:03:07,400 Speaker 5: Mean I did hear that. 1393 01:03:07,480 --> 01:03:09,840 Speaker 29: I didn't hear that. But he's also here's the deal. 1394 01:03:09,880 --> 01:03:12,240 Speaker 29: He's also locked up common chieros. So if he can 1395 01:03:12,320 --> 01:03:13,960 Speaker 29: work with both sides of the House, he's going to 1396 01:03:13,960 --> 01:03:14,760 Speaker 29: be awesome on this role. 1397 01:03:14,920 --> 01:03:16,280 Speaker 3: I actually think he is going to be good in 1398 01:03:16,320 --> 01:03:18,360 Speaker 3: this role, Richard, because I think this is as will happen. 1399 01:03:18,440 --> 01:03:20,320 Speaker 28: He has a really good and this is the problem 1400 01:03:20,360 --> 01:03:25,240 Speaker 28: with politicians when they're campaigning either side bagging the public servants. 1401 01:03:25,440 --> 01:03:27,600 Speaker 28: Because we're not like America where we switch all the 1402 01:03:27,600 --> 01:03:29,840 Speaker 28: public servants out tomorrow, sweep them all out. 1403 01:03:29,880 --> 01:03:30,920 Speaker 3: They're actually got to work with them. 1404 01:03:31,360 --> 01:03:33,200 Speaker 28: Whoops, Like I'm elected now and I have to deal 1405 01:03:33,240 --> 01:03:35,720 Speaker 28: with these people I've been dashing every day. So I 1406 01:03:35,760 --> 01:03:37,800 Speaker 28: think the issue is it's good in New Zealand that 1407 01:03:37,840 --> 01:03:39,600 Speaker 28: we have this continuity, we have these people that can 1408 01:03:39,640 --> 01:03:42,880 Speaker 28: work with either side. But it does come back when 1409 01:03:42,880 --> 01:03:44,880 Speaker 28: you see Mark Mitchell like sort of red face when 1410 01:03:44,880 --> 01:03:46,600 Speaker 28: they're asking him in those first few months, like do 1411 01:03:46,640 --> 01:03:48,760 Speaker 28: you hate Andrew Cossin. They're like no, he's actually a 1412 01:03:48,840 --> 01:03:50,800 Speaker 28: very fine man, you know, because they don't have a 1413 01:03:50,920 --> 01:03:54,720 Speaker 28: choice now because ministerial rules are different to opposition rules, 1414 01:03:54,760 --> 01:03:56,880 Speaker 28: and so it's a bit of theater, it's a bit 1415 01:03:56,880 --> 01:03:59,200 Speaker 28: of campaigning, but it is a good lesson for the 1416 01:03:59,240 --> 01:04:02,040 Speaker 28: next election or the following elections that people just need 1417 01:04:02,080 --> 01:04:03,240 Speaker 28: to think about what this is. 1418 01:04:03,320 --> 01:04:05,800 Speaker 3: So it's MAC talk guys, it's really lovely chatted the 1419 01:04:05,800 --> 01:04:07,480 Speaker 3: pair of you. Thank you. Tim Wilson of the Maximu 1420 01:04:07,480 --> 01:04:11,000 Speaker 3: Institute and Richard Hll's Auckland counselor seven Away from six on. 1421 01:04:11,080 --> 01:04:13,760 Speaker 1: Your smart speaker, on the iHeart app and in your 1422 01:04:13,760 --> 01:04:17,080 Speaker 1: car on your drive home. Heather Duples see allan drive 1423 01:04:17,560 --> 01:04:21,520 Speaker 1: with One New Zealand one Giant Leap for Business News Talk. 1424 01:04:21,720 --> 01:04:25,400 Speaker 3: Zibbi Okay, I was just talking to Richard as he 1425 01:04:25,440 --> 01:04:27,680 Speaker 3: was walking out the door about sleep regressions. I didn't 1426 01:04:27,680 --> 01:04:28,880 Speaker 3: know this, but did you know it? Two and a 1427 01:04:28,880 --> 01:04:30,800 Speaker 3: half years you get a sleep regression with your baby 1428 01:04:30,840 --> 01:04:34,240 Speaker 3: and it's just like Satan on wheels. Isn't it just 1429 01:04:34,320 --> 01:04:36,320 Speaker 3: crying in the cop for a full hour, isn't it 1430 01:04:36,360 --> 01:04:38,760 Speaker 3: but it's obviously not crying by itself in the cop 1431 01:04:38,800 --> 01:04:40,600 Speaker 3: for a full hour, because that would be cruel. So 1432 01:04:40,640 --> 01:04:43,760 Speaker 3: it's crying at mummy's face. So anyway, best of luck 1433 01:04:43,800 --> 01:04:45,440 Speaker 3: to myself. I just said to Richard, this is what 1434 01:04:45,520 --> 01:04:49,560 Speaker 3: I said to Richard, because his boy is two months 1435 01:04:49,600 --> 01:04:52,600 Speaker 3: off three, so they've been dealing with the sleep regression 1436 01:04:52,640 --> 01:04:55,440 Speaker 3: now for four months. And I said to Richard started 1437 01:04:55,440 --> 01:04:57,440 Speaker 3: for us on Friday night with a hiss and a raw, 1438 01:04:57,480 --> 01:04:58,800 Speaker 3: and I'm going to break the back of this thing 1439 01:04:58,840 --> 01:05:01,200 Speaker 3: by in two weeks time. And so I've set it 1440 01:05:01,240 --> 01:05:03,919 Speaker 3: in my diary two weeks from now it will be over. 1441 01:05:04,200 --> 01:05:07,720 Speaker 3: We'll see, we'll see. That's some epic confidence. We're going 1442 01:05:07,760 --> 01:05:10,440 Speaker 3: to talk to the FMA just after six o'clock about 1443 01:05:10,440 --> 01:05:12,240 Speaker 3: this fact that we've got the key we saver going 1444 01:05:12,320 --> 01:05:14,680 Speaker 3: up by epic amounts. Also quite a bit coming out, 1445 01:05:14,920 --> 01:05:17,240 Speaker 3: people taking it out, presumably for hardship and stuff like that. 1446 01:05:17,280 --> 01:05:21,480 Speaker 3: We'll talk through it. The Democrats are apparently increasingly worried 1447 01:05:22,320 --> 01:05:24,560 Speaker 3: that the Poles are getting it wrong, and Karmela is 1448 01:05:24,600 --> 01:05:26,720 Speaker 3: not as far ahead of Donald as we think. Now 1449 01:05:26,800 --> 01:05:28,640 Speaker 3: bear this in mind when you read the polls from 1450 01:05:28,640 --> 01:05:30,560 Speaker 3: heroinin because I do. I mean, if the Democrats are 1451 01:05:30,560 --> 01:05:33,360 Speaker 3: saying this themselves, they've got a point. They reckon what's 1452 01:05:33,360 --> 01:05:36,000 Speaker 3: happening in the polls, as they're under counting Trump's voter support. 1453 01:05:36,880 --> 01:05:41,160 Speaker 3: What they're worried about, particularly are three battleground states Pennsylvania, Michigan, 1454 01:05:41,160 --> 01:05:44,800 Speaker 3: and Wisconsin, because her margins are small there and she 1455 01:05:45,000 --> 01:05:47,040 Speaker 3: has to win these three. Her margins are only about 1456 01:05:47,040 --> 01:05:48,440 Speaker 3: one to two percent. Maybe in one of them. I 1457 01:05:48,520 --> 01:05:50,480 Speaker 3: think it's up to four percent or thereabout, but it's 1458 01:05:50,520 --> 01:05:55,120 Speaker 3: not big enough. In twenty sixteen, Trump outperformed predictions in 1459 01:05:55,280 --> 01:05:57,800 Speaker 3: all three of those state and won them all. And 1460 01:05:57,840 --> 01:06:00,680 Speaker 3: in twenty twenty, Biden had a massive lead on the night, 1461 01:06:01,040 --> 01:06:03,640 Speaker 3: his lead with tiny, so that says that they do 1462 01:06:03,720 --> 01:06:07,280 Speaker 3: not count those states properly for Trump. What's really freaking 1463 01:06:07,280 --> 01:06:09,400 Speaker 3: them out is the latest New York Times poll, which 1464 01:06:09,400 --> 01:06:12,800 Speaker 3: shows Trump doing better in three battleground states Georgia, Arizona, 1465 01:06:12,800 --> 01:06:16,520 Speaker 3: and North Carolina than he has in weeks. Arizona he's 1466 01:06:16,600 --> 01:06:19,240 Speaker 3: leading by five points, Georgia, he's leading by four points. 1467 01:06:19,280 --> 01:06:22,120 Speaker 3: North Carolina, where they've got that ridiculous Mark Robinson causing 1468 01:06:22,200 --> 01:06:25,080 Speaker 3: him trouble. He's only got a two point lead. If 1469 01:06:25,240 --> 01:06:29,400 Speaker 3: he outstripped the polling predictions in these six states by 1470 01:06:29,400 --> 01:06:31,840 Speaker 3: the same margins that he did in twenty twenty, he. 1471 01:06:31,880 --> 01:06:38,720 Speaker 1: Wins, what's down, what were the major calls and how 1472 01:06:38,760 --> 01:06:40,520 Speaker 1: will it affect the economy. 1473 01:06:40,120 --> 01:06:41,080 Speaker 2: Of a big business? 1474 01:06:41,160 --> 01:06:44,320 Speaker 1: Question is on the Business Hour, we've hit the Duplessy 1475 01:06:44,360 --> 01:06:46,320 Speaker 1: Allen and my Hr on. 1476 01:06:46,480 --> 01:06:47,240 Speaker 2: News Talks V. 1477 01:06:49,320 --> 01:06:51,640 Speaker 3: Even coming up in the next hour. Gareth Keernan with 1478 01:06:51,760 --> 01:06:54,640 Speaker 3: some actual numbers on working from home because we actually 1479 01:06:54,640 --> 01:06:55,960 Speaker 3: don't have any of those. He's going to run us 1480 01:06:55,960 --> 01:06:58,760 Speaker 3: through that. Jamie McKay on what to expect from Fonterra's 1481 01:06:58,840 --> 01:07:01,000 Speaker 3: numbers tomorrow. And Paul Blocks on why the Reserve Bank 1482 01:07:01,000 --> 01:07:03,120 Speaker 3: of Australia held the cash rate today. It's seven past 1483 01:07:03,120 --> 01:07:06,560 Speaker 3: six now. Ken we Saver investments have had a new milestone, 1484 01:07:06,560 --> 01:07:08,840 Speaker 3: topping over one hundred billion dollars for the first time 1485 01:07:08,840 --> 01:07:11,320 Speaker 3: in New Zealand. The amount of money in managed funds 1486 01:07:11,320 --> 01:07:14,160 Speaker 3: has increased by nineteen percent and what that means is 1487 01:07:14,200 --> 01:07:16,480 Speaker 3: that sixty two percent of us are now invested in 1488 01:07:16,520 --> 01:07:18,400 Speaker 3: a key we save a fund. John Horner is the 1489 01:07:18,440 --> 01:07:22,000 Speaker 3: director of the Financial Markets Authority. Hey, John, Hi, is 1490 01:07:22,000 --> 01:07:24,160 Speaker 3: there a particular reason why our key we save in 1491 01:07:24,720 --> 01:07:26,720 Speaker 3: investments have jumped up that much in just a year. 1492 01:07:27,640 --> 01:07:30,080 Speaker 14: Look, it's probably a bounce back from the prior year 1493 01:07:30,200 --> 01:07:33,480 Speaker 14: where returns on investment we're negative. So we always look 1494 01:07:33,480 --> 01:07:36,200 Speaker 14: at these things long term. Great to see a bounce back, 1495 01:07:36,360 --> 01:07:38,000 Speaker 14: but that's the long term accounts. 1496 01:07:38,160 --> 01:07:39,800 Speaker 3: What do you make of the number of withdrawals or 1497 01:07:39,840 --> 01:07:42,160 Speaker 3: the value of the withdrawals. 1498 01:07:42,400 --> 01:07:45,160 Speaker 14: Possibly a sign of the times, that's these cost of 1499 01:07:45,280 --> 01:07:49,440 Speaker 14: living challenges, that's difficult economic conditions, and so it's probably 1500 01:07:49,520 --> 01:07:52,400 Speaker 14: key we Saber working as it was designed to allow 1501 01:07:52,440 --> 01:07:53,560 Speaker 14: those withdrawals to happen. 1502 01:07:53,800 --> 01:07:55,760 Speaker 3: How much okay, so how much of the money that's 1503 01:07:55,760 --> 01:07:59,120 Speaker 3: being withdrawn is being taken out to basically just pay 1504 01:07:59,160 --> 01:07:59,600 Speaker 3: the bills. 1505 01:08:01,240 --> 01:08:05,800 Speaker 14: We won't know the reasons in for the withdrawals. I 1506 01:08:05,840 --> 01:08:09,160 Speaker 14: mean hardship applications. It's quite a high threshold. It's not 1507 01:08:09,200 --> 01:08:11,320 Speaker 14: a matter if I can't pay my bills just now, 1508 01:08:11,320 --> 01:08:14,760 Speaker 14: but it's quite a significant threshold to overcome. That's dealt 1509 01:08:14,760 --> 01:08:18,519 Speaker 14: with by the supervisors Saber providers. They assess the hardship 1510 01:08:18,520 --> 01:08:20,440 Speaker 14: applications and make those decisions. 1511 01:08:20,560 --> 01:08:22,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, just off the top of my head of something 1512 01:08:22,760 --> 01:08:24,639 Speaker 3: like five billion, that's been taken out in the last year. 1513 01:08:24,720 --> 01:08:27,040 Speaker 22: Yeah, I think that's right. 1514 01:08:27,120 --> 01:08:29,719 Speaker 14: Yeah, five billion was drawn by members and so that'll 1515 01:08:29,720 --> 01:08:32,840 Speaker 14: also be over sixty fives as well. So they're the 1516 01:08:32,840 --> 01:08:36,760 Speaker 14: ones who are actually using their kiwisaver in their retirement. 1517 01:08:36,800 --> 01:08:39,599 Speaker 3: Right, And the key we say, sorry, the over sixty 1518 01:08:39,640 --> 01:08:41,760 Speaker 3: fives actually make up the vast majority of that about 1519 01:08:41,760 --> 01:08:43,439 Speaker 3: three billion. But how do we know they don't need 1520 01:08:43,439 --> 01:08:44,120 Speaker 3: it for hardship? 1521 01:08:45,880 --> 01:08:48,360 Speaker 14: Well, they can use it for whatever reason they like, right, 1522 01:08:48,479 --> 01:08:50,559 Speaker 14: So you're right. I mean, if you're in your retirement, 1523 01:08:50,680 --> 01:08:54,559 Speaker 14: kevsaver is all about your financial wellbeing and your retirement years. 1524 01:08:54,920 --> 01:08:57,439 Speaker 14: Some of those folks will still be working, maybe part time, 1525 01:08:57,479 --> 01:09:00,400 Speaker 14: maybe full time, but TV taper is available for them 1526 01:09:00,400 --> 01:09:01,360 Speaker 14: to use as they wish. 1527 01:09:01,640 --> 01:09:03,240 Speaker 3: And so I suppose we can't break it out and 1528 01:09:03,240 --> 01:09:04,920 Speaker 3: look at how many of them are taking it up 1529 01:09:04,920 --> 01:09:07,040 Speaker 3: because they're leaving the country altogether or anything like that. 1530 01:09:07,080 --> 01:09:12,559 Speaker 14: Can we look the numbers are as reported? There's an 1531 01:09:12,560 --> 01:09:15,160 Speaker 14: also a lot of numbers in there, so I can't 1532 01:09:15,200 --> 01:09:19,439 Speaker 14: speak to all of them. But yeah, the withdrawals, the 1533 01:09:19,520 --> 01:09:24,480 Speaker 14: headline figures for the withdrawals is the number week we focus. 1534 01:09:24,160 --> 01:09:27,000 Speaker 3: On, what do you make of only sixty two percent 1535 01:09:27,000 --> 01:09:29,360 Speaker 3: of us being invested in key We SAB fund. I 1536 01:09:29,400 --> 01:09:32,080 Speaker 3: suppose glass half full. That's not a bad number, but 1537 01:09:32,200 --> 01:09:34,559 Speaker 3: glass half empty. There's still a fair chunk of us 1538 01:09:34,880 --> 01:09:35,799 Speaker 3: who aren't invested. 1539 01:09:36,600 --> 01:09:40,040 Speaker 14: That's right. We'd always like it to be more, and obviously, 1540 01:09:40,160 --> 01:09:43,400 Speaker 14: like the members who are part of KI we savor 1541 01:09:43,479 --> 01:09:49,880 Speaker 14: to be contributing. But again, relative to the times we're 1542 01:09:49,920 --> 01:09:52,880 Speaker 14: going through at the moment, we think the contributions have 1543 01:09:53,240 --> 01:09:57,080 Speaker 14: held pretty steady. We'd always like those who have cys 1544 01:09:57,160 --> 01:09:59,920 Speaker 14: to make contributions to come back and start those again 1545 01:10:00,080 --> 01:10:01,160 Speaker 14: just as soon as they can. 1546 01:10:02,000 --> 01:10:05,120 Speaker 3: John, most people are in growth funds. Now. Does that 1547 01:10:05,160 --> 01:10:07,559 Speaker 3: reflect the age of the investors that they are of 1548 01:10:07,600 --> 01:10:09,920 Speaker 3: a younger profile or is this something else going on here? 1549 01:10:11,240 --> 01:10:14,760 Speaker 14: Maybe not so much the age, more the investment horizon 1550 01:10:14,800 --> 01:10:18,559 Speaker 14: that they're looking at as their long term investment. They've 1551 01:10:18,560 --> 01:10:21,360 Speaker 14: got a long term horizon sort of ten years and plus, 1552 01:10:22,000 --> 01:10:24,519 Speaker 14: then growth fund is most likely to be the right 1553 01:10:24,600 --> 01:10:25,240 Speaker 14: fund for them. 1554 01:10:25,800 --> 01:10:27,599 Speaker 3: John, it's good to talk to you. Thank you very much, 1555 01:10:27,640 --> 01:10:30,839 Speaker 3: really appreciate it. John Horner, Director of the Financial Markets Authority. 1556 01:10:31,760 --> 01:10:33,679 Speaker 3: Heither can you please look into the realize that agents 1557 01:10:33,720 --> 01:10:37,280 Speaker 3: losing their licenses for not completing the Maori cultural courses. Yeah, 1558 01:10:37,760 --> 01:10:39,160 Speaker 3: I'm going to raise that with you. You're going to 1559 01:10:39,240 --> 01:10:41,360 Speaker 3: hear this. You're going to have to hear this. The 1560 01:10:41,400 --> 01:10:44,960 Speaker 3: old Fletcher Building thing seems to be an old albatross 1561 01:10:45,000 --> 01:10:47,639 Speaker 3: hanging around some people who are associated with its next 1562 01:10:47,680 --> 01:10:51,040 Speaker 3: at the moment, A Bruce Hassel made buff may be 1563 01:10:51,240 --> 01:10:53,120 Speaker 3: regretting that he ever had anything to do with it. 1564 01:10:53,160 --> 01:10:55,599 Speaker 3: He was the chair of Fletcher Building. He has now 1565 01:10:55,640 --> 01:10:58,599 Speaker 3: just withdrawn his nomination for election to the Victor Board. 1566 01:10:58,720 --> 01:11:03,760 Speaker 3: Completely unrelated, but has decided to withdraw his nomination for 1567 01:11:03,840 --> 01:11:08,200 Speaker 3: election because feedback from shareholders, obviously when it was not 1568 01:11:08,400 --> 01:11:11,120 Speaker 3: very positive about his previous role as the chair of 1569 01:11:11,120 --> 01:11:15,320 Speaker 3: Fletcher Building. The Victor's current chair, Doug mckaye's expressed disappointment 1570 01:11:15,320 --> 01:11:17,320 Speaker 3: on behalf of the board said Hassel had made you know, 1571 01:11:17,439 --> 01:11:20,479 Speaker 3: significant contributions since he joined last October and blah blah blah, 1572 01:11:20,479 --> 01:11:22,559 Speaker 3: and he had the unanimous support of his board colleagues, 1573 01:11:23,040 --> 01:11:26,080 Speaker 3: but unfortunately the shareholders don't love it. And so he's 1574 01:11:26,120 --> 01:11:27,240 Speaker 3: out twelve past. 1575 01:11:27,000 --> 01:11:32,680 Speaker 2: Six crunching the numbers and getting the results. 1576 01:11:32,840 --> 01:11:36,160 Speaker 1: It's Heather dupice Ellen with the business hours thanks to 1577 01:11:36,280 --> 01:11:41,040 Speaker 1: my HR, the HR platform for SME on newstalksb Hea. 1578 01:11:41,080 --> 01:11:43,920 Speaker 3: The Chloe's interview is definitely two bottles of salad dressing 1579 01:11:43,920 --> 01:11:46,639 Speaker 3: from Steve Hither. We will need a four year term 1580 01:11:46,680 --> 01:11:48,839 Speaker 3: if the Greens have anything to do with the next government, 1581 01:11:48,840 --> 01:11:50,400 Speaker 3: as it will take them more than three years to 1582 01:11:50,400 --> 01:11:52,160 Speaker 3: make a decision. That's a fair point. Actually, can you 1583 01:11:52,200 --> 01:11:55,040 Speaker 3: imagine if they decided to start taking everything to the delegates. 1584 01:11:55,320 --> 01:11:57,040 Speaker 3: We're going to meet with the delegates in three weeks 1585 01:11:57,040 --> 01:11:58,599 Speaker 3: time to see if they like what the Prime Minister's 1586 01:11:58,600 --> 01:12:00,000 Speaker 3: suggesting that we have to do and how we should 1587 01:12:00,040 --> 01:12:01,640 Speaker 3: vote on this in the future. So that's going to 1588 01:12:01,640 --> 01:12:05,559 Speaker 3: take a little while. So yep, democracy, democracy and action, 1589 01:12:05,680 --> 01:12:08,240 Speaker 3: isn't it? Quarter past six now? Working from home right 1590 01:12:08,320 --> 01:12:10,160 Speaker 3: has been the talk, big talking point of the week 1591 01:12:10,240 --> 01:12:13,360 Speaker 3: so far. What we don't have is a lot of numbers, 1592 01:12:13,439 --> 01:12:14,840 Speaker 3: so we thought we'd crunch a few of them just 1593 01:12:14,880 --> 01:12:16,960 Speaker 3: to get a bit of context into this debate. And 1594 01:12:17,000 --> 01:12:20,839 Speaker 3: Gareth Kernan is Informetric's chief forecasters, who's been a forecaster, 1595 01:12:20,880 --> 01:12:24,240 Speaker 3: who's been doing the numbers for us at Gareth evening here, mate, 1596 01:12:24,280 --> 01:12:26,479 Speaker 3: do we have any idea how many people are actually 1597 01:12:26,520 --> 01:12:27,560 Speaker 3: working from Home. 1598 01:12:28,560 --> 01:12:31,439 Speaker 20: Statsenter did a survey last year and showed that about 1599 01:12:31,520 --> 01:12:34,160 Speaker 20: forty three percent of people have the option to work 1600 01:12:34,200 --> 01:12:37,760 Speaker 20: from home, and some other numbers suggest that around about 1601 01:12:37,800 --> 01:12:40,120 Speaker 20: eighty percent of those people have worked from home in 1602 01:12:40,160 --> 01:12:42,400 Speaker 20: the last three months or so, not saying they work 1603 01:12:42,439 --> 01:12:45,960 Speaker 20: from home every week, but at least utilizing that option 1604 01:12:46,360 --> 01:12:50,640 Speaker 20: to some extent. It's interesting when you look at professional services, 1605 01:12:50,720 --> 01:12:52,839 Speaker 20: which you know, the talk has been about the government 1606 01:12:52,840 --> 01:12:55,599 Speaker 20: this week, and it's probably the closest industry we've got 1607 01:12:55,600 --> 01:12:57,320 Speaker 20: sort of lining up with the sort of work there. 1608 01:12:57,880 --> 01:13:00,559 Speaker 20: Eighty one percent of people are able to work from home, 1609 01:13:00,640 --> 01:13:03,240 Speaker 20: so it is massively prevalent, as you'd expect, I guess 1610 01:13:03,280 --> 01:13:05,800 Speaker 20: through you know those sort of office based jobs. 1611 01:13:06,600 --> 01:13:09,559 Speaker 3: Do you think that sending these guys back is the 1612 01:13:09,600 --> 01:13:12,759 Speaker 3: proportion of the workforce in Wellington being the civil service 1613 01:13:12,840 --> 01:13:16,200 Speaker 3: big enough to actually impact Wellington if we sent them 1614 01:13:16,200 --> 01:13:18,120 Speaker 3: all back five days a week, let's say. 1615 01:13:19,400 --> 01:13:21,439 Speaker 20: Well, I mean, look the civil service, it's about twenty 1616 01:13:21,479 --> 01:13:24,760 Speaker 20: percent of Wellington's workforce, compared to across the rest of 1617 01:13:24,760 --> 01:13:27,520 Speaker 20: the country around about five percent, so it is significant. 1618 01:13:28,040 --> 01:13:30,519 Speaker 20: But I was fascinated looking at the public transport usage 1619 01:13:30,520 --> 01:13:34,879 Speaker 20: actually on a regional basis. I mean Wellington's public transport 1620 01:13:34,960 --> 01:13:37,360 Speaker 20: usage this year to date, it is down about six 1621 01:13:37,400 --> 01:13:39,720 Speaker 20: percent from where it was in twenty nineteen, back when 1622 01:13:39,720 --> 01:13:43,360 Speaker 20: the world was all normal. Auckland, I was surprised to 1623 01:13:43,400 --> 01:13:45,519 Speaker 20: look at Auckland fourteen percent down, and then I remember 1624 01:13:45,520 --> 01:13:47,320 Speaker 20: that you guys have had massive problems, you know, and 1625 01:13:47,439 --> 01:13:48,920 Speaker 20: fixing your train lines and all that. 1626 01:13:48,840 --> 01:13:49,360 Speaker 17: Sort of thing. 1627 01:13:50,120 --> 01:13:52,639 Speaker 20: But even bus usage in Auckland are still around, sitting 1628 01:13:52,680 --> 01:13:55,519 Speaker 20: around about seven percent below where it was in twenty nineteen. 1629 01:13:55,680 --> 01:13:57,240 Speaker 20: So there's sort of a bit of a feeling that 1630 01:13:57,520 --> 01:14:00,160 Speaker 20: there's other issues at play in Wellington, a part up 1631 01:14:00,240 --> 01:14:02,759 Speaker 20: from just the fact that public servants have been working 1632 01:14:02,760 --> 01:14:04,600 Speaker 20: from home. I mean, there's been a lot of discussion 1633 01:14:04,960 --> 01:14:06,880 Speaker 20: down here, of course about the sort of creek in 1634 01:14:07,080 --> 01:14:09,960 Speaker 20: infrastructure and the unattractiveness of the center of town with 1635 01:14:10,400 --> 01:14:13,800 Speaker 20: earthquake damaged buildings and that type of thing. We haven't 1636 01:14:13,840 --> 01:14:16,200 Speaker 20: had a lot of population growth here as well at times. 1637 01:14:16,560 --> 01:14:18,280 Speaker 20: And you overlay all of that, of course with the 1638 01:14:18,280 --> 01:14:20,840 Speaker 20: actual job cuts we've seen to the public sector, and 1639 01:14:20,840 --> 01:14:23,799 Speaker 20: I think there's probably bigger issues at play then simply, 1640 01:14:23,840 --> 01:14:26,040 Speaker 20: you know, too many people working from home and not 1641 01:14:26,080 --> 01:14:27,760 Speaker 20: spending enough in the cafes in town. 1642 01:14:27,840 --> 01:14:29,880 Speaker 3: The defense that you get from people who don't want 1643 01:14:29,960 --> 01:14:31,760 Speaker 3: to have to go back to work, the unions or 1644 01:14:31,800 --> 01:14:33,160 Speaker 3: you know, don't want to have to send the staff 1645 01:14:33,160 --> 01:14:35,280 Speaker 3: back to work is that there isn't a problem with productivity. 1646 01:14:35,280 --> 01:14:38,080 Speaker 3: It hasn't decreased. But can we actually say that with confidence? 1647 01:14:38,160 --> 01:14:40,519 Speaker 3: Is anybody at any of these agencies or private sector 1648 01:14:40,560 --> 01:14:44,479 Speaker 3: employers actually measuring productivity often enough to know for sure? 1649 01:14:45,640 --> 01:14:48,280 Speaker 20: I think there's been so many sort of conflicting studies 1650 01:14:48,320 --> 01:14:50,040 Speaker 20: on it, it's really hard to come to any sort 1651 01:14:50,040 --> 01:14:53,040 Speaker 20: of firm conclusion about the productivity outcomes. And I get 1652 01:14:53,080 --> 01:14:56,040 Speaker 20: the feeling that it really depends on your organization. It 1653 01:14:56,080 --> 01:14:58,400 Speaker 20: really depends on the individuals that play as well. You know, 1654 01:14:58,479 --> 01:15:01,080 Speaker 20: for some people working at home with the interruptions is 1655 01:15:01,760 --> 01:15:04,240 Speaker 20: fantastic and they do get more done. For others you 1656 01:15:04,360 --> 01:15:06,439 Speaker 20: kind of feel like, you know, maybe maybe they are 1657 01:15:06,479 --> 01:15:08,280 Speaker 20: taking the piece of it and you know, a couple 1658 01:15:08,320 --> 01:15:10,360 Speaker 20: of hours work here and a couple of hours work there. 1659 01:15:11,160 --> 01:15:13,559 Speaker 3: So, gare you work in Wellington? Do you know any 1660 01:15:13,560 --> 01:15:16,200 Speaker 3: public sector? Got any mates? So we're taking the mickey 1661 01:15:16,200 --> 01:15:16,680 Speaker 3: a little bit. 1662 01:15:18,240 --> 01:15:21,720 Speaker 20: No, My mates are all very very strong working. I 1663 01:15:21,840 --> 01:15:24,439 Speaker 20: can't believe you to cure some of that, but no loans, 1664 01:15:24,600 --> 01:15:29,439 Speaker 20: I know, heaps, Yeah, no, I mean look for look 1665 01:15:29,880 --> 01:15:32,280 Speaker 20: from an infometric's point of view, I mean, we've always 1666 01:15:32,320 --> 01:15:34,200 Speaker 20: had quite a flexible work and policy. 1667 01:15:33,960 --> 01:15:34,839 Speaker 5: Even pre COVID. 1668 01:15:34,880 --> 01:15:37,759 Speaker 20: But we're a small organization with you know, twelve thirteen, 1669 01:15:37,840 --> 01:15:40,080 Speaker 20: fourteen people. It's pretty easy to see sort of holes 1670 01:15:40,240 --> 01:15:42,840 Speaker 20: in people's productivity if they're not pulling their weight. It 1671 01:15:42,920 --> 01:15:45,240 Speaker 20: is a lot harder in those bigger organizations and obviously 1672 01:15:45,320 --> 01:15:48,240 Speaker 20: the public sector. I think imagine it's a lot harder 1673 01:15:48,240 --> 01:15:50,680 Speaker 20: to keep tabs on everybody and that sort of situation. 1674 01:15:51,080 --> 01:15:53,840 Speaker 3: Yeah too, right, Hey, Gareth, as always really appreciate you 1675 01:15:53,880 --> 01:15:55,400 Speaker 3: doing the numbers for us and chatting to you. That's 1676 01:15:55,439 --> 01:15:58,760 Speaker 3: Gareth Kenan, chief forecast at Informetrics. All right, here we go. 1677 01:15:58,840 --> 01:16:02,640 Speaker 3: This is what's happened with the the compulsory Maori cultural 1678 01:16:02,640 --> 01:16:04,960 Speaker 3: course for the real estate agents. There is a chap 1679 01:16:05,000 --> 01:16:07,360 Speaker 3: who was or is I don't really know because I 1680 01:16:07,400 --> 01:16:09,920 Speaker 3: don't watch Mary at first sight, but is at some 1681 01:16:10,040 --> 01:16:12,840 Speaker 3: stage has or is going to be on this show. 1682 01:16:12,880 --> 01:16:15,360 Speaker 3: His name is Mike Wilson and he is himself a 1683 01:16:15,400 --> 01:16:18,920 Speaker 3: real estate agent. He has lost his complete real estate 1684 01:16:18,960 --> 01:16:22,360 Speaker 3: agent's license because he didn't do the Maori cultural course, 1685 01:16:22,640 --> 01:16:26,719 Speaker 3: in particular the course called tech Carcinal the Seed. Now, 1686 01:16:26,840 --> 01:16:29,960 Speaker 3: he didn't have a problem with tech Carcinal. He just 1687 01:16:30,120 --> 01:16:32,960 Speaker 3: was busy. He was busy filming the reality TV show. 1688 01:16:33,040 --> 01:16:35,200 Speaker 3: It took six weeks. He didn't check his emails when 1689 01:16:35,240 --> 01:16:37,040 Speaker 3: he was doing the six weeks, and so as a result, 1690 01:16:37,040 --> 01:16:39,479 Speaker 3: he didn't get the reminders from them saying, don't forget 1691 01:16:39,520 --> 01:16:41,640 Speaker 3: to do the seed. Do the seed. Oh no, you 1692 01:16:41,640 --> 01:16:43,960 Speaker 3: didn't do the seed. Okay, we're canceling. Yeah yeah, yeah, 1693 01:16:44,120 --> 01:16:47,080 Speaker 3: yeah yeah. Real estate license. Now, this is the one 1694 01:16:47,080 --> 01:16:50,200 Speaker 3: and the same course that Janet Dixon is in the 1695 01:16:50,280 --> 01:16:51,920 Speaker 3: High Court over. You know this one. This is the 1696 01:16:51,920 --> 01:16:54,639 Speaker 3: one she refused to do it, and she's completely different 1697 01:16:54,680 --> 01:16:57,800 Speaker 3: to Mike. Mike just forgot or got busy, But Janet 1698 01:16:57,840 --> 01:16:59,200 Speaker 3: didn't want to do it, but she didn't see any 1699 01:16:59,200 --> 01:17:01,080 Speaker 3: point in doing it. So she's taken a judicial review 1700 01:17:01,120 --> 01:17:02,240 Speaker 3: on the thing and it's gone to the High Court 1701 01:17:02,240 --> 01:17:05,439 Speaker 3: and blah blah blah. It's the same course. Now, I 1702 01:17:06,080 --> 01:17:09,360 Speaker 3: forgive me if I got this wrong, but I was 1703 01:17:09,479 --> 01:17:12,920 Speaker 3: under the impression that when Janet went to court over this, 1704 01:17:13,360 --> 01:17:16,320 Speaker 3: that it stopped being compulsory, that they had changed their 1705 01:17:16,400 --> 01:17:20,120 Speaker 3: rules at the real estate whatever body that called nowadays. 1706 01:17:20,439 --> 01:17:22,320 Speaker 3: I thought that changed the rules over this. I thought 1707 01:17:22,360 --> 01:17:24,840 Speaker 3: you didn't have to do this thing anymore, But evidently 1708 01:17:24,920 --> 01:17:28,839 Speaker 3: you do anyway whatever hopefully, I mean, Mike's obviously suffered 1709 01:17:28,840 --> 01:17:31,320 Speaker 3: from being a boy. Boys forget to do things like this. 1710 01:17:31,720 --> 01:17:34,040 Speaker 3: But it's drawn our attention to this again, and it 1711 01:17:34,080 --> 01:17:35,800 Speaker 3: brings me back to a point that I think I 1712 01:17:35,880 --> 01:17:39,559 Speaker 3: was making maybe last week. Is it not remarkable to 1713 01:17:39,640 --> 01:17:44,040 Speaker 3: you how this idea has taken hold, that it is 1714 01:17:44,160 --> 01:17:48,639 Speaker 3: completely and utterly acceptable to force people to do things 1715 01:17:48,680 --> 01:17:52,439 Speaker 3: in one particular area. I mean, because absolutely, Marty T. 1716 01:17:52,600 --> 01:17:55,799 Speaker 3: Kunger is very important to understand. But we could probably 1717 01:17:55,800 --> 01:17:57,960 Speaker 3: mount the same argument for a lot of things, like 1718 01:17:58,280 --> 01:18:02,519 Speaker 3: if we were particularly feeling particular exercised about women's rights today, 1719 01:18:02,960 --> 01:18:05,479 Speaker 3: we could force all of the real estate agents. Why 1720 01:18:05,560 --> 01:18:07,439 Speaker 3: don't we force all of the real estate agents to 1721 01:18:07,479 --> 01:18:12,800 Speaker 3: do a compulsory course on consensual sex because we want 1722 01:18:12,800 --> 01:18:16,320 Speaker 3: them to understand that, or the gender pay gap, or 1723 01:18:16,640 --> 01:18:19,360 Speaker 3: how women feel uncomfortable when you treat them in a 1724 01:18:19,360 --> 01:18:21,479 Speaker 3: certain way in a private residence. I don't know like, 1725 01:18:21,479 --> 01:18:23,480 Speaker 3: why don't we do that, Why don't we make that compulsory? 1726 01:18:23,920 --> 01:18:27,000 Speaker 3: You know, but we've decided this one particular idea. It 1727 01:18:27,080 --> 01:18:30,240 Speaker 3: must be compulsory at Auckland University, must be a compulsory 1728 01:18:30,240 --> 01:18:33,439 Speaker 3: aspect of whether aut staff can can travel, must be 1729 01:18:33,479 --> 01:18:35,599 Speaker 3: compulsory at the real estate agents, you know. Like it's 1730 01:18:35,680 --> 01:18:38,840 Speaker 3: quite remarkable how widespread it is. And you can see 1731 01:18:38,840 --> 01:18:41,559 Speaker 3: how if you are a government, a party in government 1732 01:18:41,560 --> 01:18:43,439 Speaker 3: wanting to turn that around, you've got a big job 1733 01:18:43,479 --> 01:18:46,720 Speaker 3: in your hands six twenty two crunching. 1734 01:18:46,360 --> 01:18:48,320 Speaker 2: The others and getting the results. 1735 01:18:48,560 --> 01:18:52,080 Speaker 1: It's hither duplicy Ellen with the Business Hour thanks to 1736 01:18:52,200 --> 01:18:56,320 Speaker 1: my HR the HR solution for busy SMS on News 1737 01:18:56,360 --> 01:18:57,000 Speaker 1: Talks FB. 1738 01:18:57,120 --> 01:18:59,680 Speaker 3: Twenty four past six. Remember Paul Bloxham is going to 1739 01:18:59,720 --> 01:19:01,559 Speaker 3: be with us after the news talk us through what's 1740 01:19:01,600 --> 01:19:03,439 Speaker 3: going on with the interest rates at the Reserve Bank 1741 01:19:03,479 --> 01:19:05,599 Speaker 3: of Australia et cetera, et cetera, and whether they're affected 1742 01:19:05,600 --> 01:19:08,439 Speaker 3: by what the Fed did Right now with us Jamie McKay, 1743 01:19:08,560 --> 01:19:11,400 Speaker 3: Host to the Country, a Jamie Gooda here that what 1744 01:19:11,439 --> 01:19:13,160 Speaker 3: are you expecting from Fromterra tomorrow? 1745 01:19:13,960 --> 01:19:16,759 Speaker 30: Well, not much in terms of the final milk price 1746 01:19:16,840 --> 01:19:19,719 Speaker 30: for the twenty three to twenty four season. The experts 1747 01:19:19,880 --> 01:19:23,640 Speaker 30: telling me it'll be a rounding exercise. At this stage, 1748 01:19:24,320 --> 01:19:26,680 Speaker 30: they're currently sitting at a midpoint of seven eighty. There 1749 01:19:26,720 --> 01:19:29,200 Speaker 30: might be a wee bit of upside. I'd be surprised 1750 01:19:29,200 --> 01:19:32,160 Speaker 30: if there was any downside. I think tomorrow's number that 1751 01:19:32,280 --> 01:19:34,760 Speaker 30: might be of interest is the dividend, though amounts the 1752 01:19:34,760 --> 01:19:39,120 Speaker 30: final dividend for the twenty three twenty four financial year, 1753 01:19:39,439 --> 01:19:42,240 Speaker 30: remembering in twenty two to twenty three it was fifty cents, 1754 01:19:42,280 --> 01:19:44,479 Speaker 30: but you don't have to go that far back in time. 1755 01:19:44,920 --> 01:19:48,640 Speaker 30: In fact, to twenty eighteen nineteen it was nothing, not 1756 01:19:48,720 --> 01:19:52,240 Speaker 30: a sausage, nada, and then in twenty nineteen twenty it 1757 01:19:52,280 --> 01:19:55,200 Speaker 30: was only five cents. So I'm assuming I'm going to 1758 01:19:55,240 --> 01:19:58,760 Speaker 30: make the assumption, perhaps rather foolishly, that that dividend's going 1759 01:19:58,760 --> 01:20:02,040 Speaker 30: to be in excess of She's fifty cents. Miles will 1760 01:20:02,040 --> 01:20:05,040 Speaker 30: probably prove me wrong. At about eight thirty tomorrow morning, 1761 01:20:05,520 --> 01:20:08,120 Speaker 30: we'll have that number confirmed. Wee bit of upside on 1762 01:20:08,520 --> 01:20:11,040 Speaker 30: seven eighty, as far as I'm aware. Once again, Miles 1763 01:20:11,040 --> 01:20:13,080 Speaker 30: will probably make a fall to me. I'm not sure 1764 01:20:13,200 --> 01:20:17,439 Speaker 30: they update the current season forecast, which is currently sitting 1765 01:20:17,800 --> 01:20:20,960 Speaker 30: at eight dollars fifty midpoint. Mind you, the futures markets 1766 01:20:20,960 --> 01:20:22,040 Speaker 30: are doing a bit better than that. 1767 01:20:22,640 --> 01:20:24,639 Speaker 3: Oh, Jamie, sounds like it's a bit tough in south 1768 01:20:24,720 --> 01:20:26,599 Speaker 3: and for the farmers at the moment with all the rainfall. 1769 01:20:27,479 --> 01:20:30,400 Speaker 30: Yeah, well you talk about diversification and farming, Heather. I've 1770 01:20:30,439 --> 01:20:32,040 Speaker 30: still got a lot of mates, as you know, you 1771 01:20:32,160 --> 01:20:35,320 Speaker 30: know some of them down in Southland who are sheep farmers, 1772 01:20:35,320 --> 01:20:38,599 Speaker 30: So I think they're going to diversify into growing rice. 1773 01:20:38,800 --> 01:20:41,680 Speaker 30: It's literally like a rice paddy down there. I was 1774 01:20:41,720 --> 01:20:44,000 Speaker 30: talking to an old timer today and I said, is 1775 01:20:44,040 --> 01:20:47,320 Speaker 30: it worse than the lambing of twenty ten or eleven 1776 01:20:47,400 --> 01:20:51,000 Speaker 30: when the roof on Stadium Southland fell collapsed because of 1777 01:20:51,040 --> 01:20:52,880 Speaker 30: all the snow lying on it? Or is it worse 1778 01:20:52,880 --> 01:20:55,240 Speaker 30: than the lambing of eighty six when we're not only 1779 01:20:55,360 --> 01:20:57,600 Speaker 30: had rained for three weeks. We had Roger Douglas and 1780 01:20:57,640 --> 01:20:59,920 Speaker 30: he said that was almost as bad as the lambing 1781 01:21:00,240 --> 01:21:03,519 Speaker 30: seventy two. That's how far back some of them are coming. Look, 1782 01:21:04,200 --> 01:21:08,760 Speaker 30: it's been a bloody disaster. You've got no grass, poor 1783 01:21:08,920 --> 01:21:11,679 Speaker 30: utilization of the grass that's growing. Eye it all gets 1784 01:21:11,720 --> 01:21:15,000 Speaker 30: stamped and trampled into the mud and you've got low 1785 01:21:15,040 --> 01:21:20,479 Speaker 30: soil temperatures, not much sunshine, horizontal hail down there today. 1786 01:21:20,880 --> 01:21:22,960 Speaker 30: So look, they're in a bit of a fix. But 1787 01:21:23,040 --> 01:21:24,479 Speaker 30: you can go up the road a bit to North 1788 01:21:24,560 --> 01:21:27,839 Speaker 30: Canterbury and they've got completely the opposite problem, and probably 1789 01:21:27,840 --> 01:21:30,439 Speaker 30: a worse one. Those guys can't buy a break in 1790 01:21:30,560 --> 01:21:33,840 Speaker 30: terms of soil moisture, so they're headed for a stinking drought. 1791 01:21:33,840 --> 01:21:35,840 Speaker 30: It would be fair to say that Southland's a wee 1792 01:21:35,920 --> 01:21:37,400 Speaker 30: way from a trout at the moment. 1793 01:21:37,680 --> 01:21:39,240 Speaker 3: Jamie, good to talk to you. Thank you for that. 1794 01:21:39,320 --> 01:21:42,920 Speaker 3: Appreciated As Jammy mackay hosts of the Country. Hey listen. 1795 01:21:43,000 --> 01:21:45,760 Speaker 3: Last week during the show, we broadcast audio evidence from 1796 01:21:45,800 --> 01:21:49,240 Speaker 3: the trial of Philip Pulkinghorn, and we didn't give any 1797 01:21:49,360 --> 01:21:51,759 Speaker 3: of our listeners a warning before we played that audio. 1798 01:21:51,800 --> 01:21:54,280 Speaker 3: Now we acknowledge that the content could have been actually 1799 01:21:54,280 --> 01:21:56,479 Speaker 3: pretty distressing for members of our audience, So we would 1800 01:21:56,560 --> 01:22:00,080 Speaker 3: like to apologize for that. Twenty seven past six now, now, 1801 01:22:00,360 --> 01:22:01,559 Speaker 3: I don't know if you wanted it. Do you want 1802 01:22:01,560 --> 01:22:03,880 Speaker 3: to know this? Green Peace are up to it again, 1803 01:22:03,920 --> 01:22:07,439 Speaker 3: aren't they. Yeah, they are just talking yesterday about the 1804 01:22:07,479 --> 01:22:10,160 Speaker 3: guys from Extinction Rebellion causing trouble with the trains. That 1805 01:22:10,280 --> 01:22:11,840 Speaker 3: was historic, but they're not going to get in much 1806 01:22:11,840 --> 01:22:14,160 Speaker 3: trouble by the looks of things today. Must have given 1807 01:22:14,200 --> 01:22:16,599 Speaker 3: them longtime listeners green Peace, I don't know if you know. 1808 01:22:16,960 --> 01:22:18,640 Speaker 3: Must have given them an idea. Must have been like 1809 01:22:18,840 --> 01:22:22,120 Speaker 3: it's been a while between them between protests, so today 1810 01:22:22,160 --> 01:22:26,479 Speaker 3: they decided to lock themselves inside the Stratira HQ. Now 1811 01:22:26,520 --> 01:22:29,360 Speaker 3: Stratira are a you probably don't know who they are 1812 01:22:30,280 --> 01:22:32,040 Speaker 3: because most of us just get on with our lives. 1813 01:22:32,040 --> 01:22:34,120 Speaker 3: But oh no, not green Peace. Stratira has been winding 1814 01:22:34,120 --> 01:22:37,320 Speaker 3: them up. Stratira are like the lobby body for the 1815 01:22:37,400 --> 01:22:40,280 Speaker 3: representative body for the mining industry. So three green Peace 1816 01:22:40,400 --> 01:22:42,880 Speaker 3: dudes went and there locked themselves inside. Must have been 1817 01:22:42,880 --> 01:22:45,519 Speaker 3: like hell for being in there with all the pictures 1818 01:22:45,560 --> 01:22:47,920 Speaker 3: of all the mining on the walls and stuff. Two 1819 01:22:47,960 --> 01:22:49,720 Speaker 3: more climbed onto an awning at the front of the 1820 01:22:49,720 --> 01:22:52,200 Speaker 3: building and they held up a big nosey bed mining banner. 1821 01:22:52,439 --> 01:22:54,200 Speaker 3: A cops arrived, but they were not going anywhere, and 1822 01:22:54,280 --> 01:22:56,160 Speaker 3: they decided that wasn't enough, So then they climbed a 1823 01:22:56,200 --> 01:22:58,920 Speaker 3: giant crane like thing down at the train station in 1824 01:22:58,960 --> 01:23:01,599 Speaker 3: Wellington as well. I hope stay safe up there, because 1825 01:23:01,640 --> 01:23:04,879 Speaker 3: it's it's high headline's next. 1826 01:23:06,520 --> 01:23:12,680 Speaker 2: Two whether it's macro micro or just playing. 1827 01:23:12,439 --> 01:23:16,120 Speaker 1: Economics, it's all on the Business Hour with Heather Duplicy 1828 01:23:16,160 --> 01:23:20,160 Speaker 1: Allen and my HR. The HR solution for busy SMEs 1829 01:23:20,439 --> 01:23:27,000 Speaker 1: us dogs bad. 1830 01:23:27,040 --> 01:23:29,840 Speaker 3: It's going to be at us in ten minutes time. Okay, 1831 01:23:29,880 --> 01:23:31,080 Speaker 3: So this is what I was going to tell you 1832 01:23:31,120 --> 01:23:35,120 Speaker 3: about the race for Andrew Costa's job. So apparently it's 1833 01:23:35,160 --> 01:23:38,680 Speaker 3: between Deputy Commissioner give A mcskimming and Richard Chambers, the 1834 01:23:38,680 --> 01:23:42,599 Speaker 3: Assistant Commissioner. Now both of them actually graduated Police College 1835 01:23:42,600 --> 01:23:44,519 Speaker 3: in the same year, nineteen ninety six, so if they've 1836 01:23:44,520 --> 01:23:46,320 Speaker 3: both been but both of them must have done all 1837 01:23:46,400 --> 01:23:50,000 Speaker 3: up around about what's that twenty seven twenty eight years 1838 01:23:50,000 --> 01:23:52,920 Speaker 3: and the cops, that's not bad A MC skimming give 1839 01:23:52,920 --> 01:23:55,080 Speaker 3: the mc skimming did ten years in front run roles 1840 01:23:55,120 --> 01:23:58,400 Speaker 3: in Auckland, Southland West Coast, then went to Wellington, took 1841 01:23:58,439 --> 01:24:02,160 Speaker 3: some leadership positions to National Headquarters Police National Headquarters in 1842 01:24:02,160 --> 01:24:04,760 Speaker 3: twenty ten, rose through the ranks there last year became 1843 01:24:04,800 --> 01:24:08,800 Speaker 3: Deputy Commissioner. Chambers also worked on the front line in 1844 01:24:08,800 --> 01:24:12,240 Speaker 3: Auckland and then became a detective and then moved to Wellington, 1845 01:24:12,320 --> 01:24:14,720 Speaker 3: then became the area commander for Lower Hut in two 1846 01:24:14,760 --> 01:24:17,040 Speaker 3: thousand and seven, then the district commander for Tasman and 1847 01:24:17,040 --> 01:24:19,880 Speaker 3: then Auckland and then went back to Wellington as an 1848 01:24:19,880 --> 01:24:23,800 Speaker 3: assistant commissioner. In twenty sixteen when he missed out on 1849 01:24:24,000 --> 01:24:27,200 Speaker 3: the job to Andrew Costa or maybe some other job. 1850 01:24:27,240 --> 01:24:29,880 Speaker 3: There was some promotion he didn't get. He decided to 1851 01:24:29,960 --> 01:24:33,599 Speaker 3: go on secondment earlier this year and accepted as seeing 1852 01:24:33,640 --> 01:24:36,880 Speaker 3: your role into poll he said at the time he 1853 01:24:36,920 --> 01:24:38,759 Speaker 3: was prepared to come back for a role in New Zealand, 1854 01:24:38,800 --> 01:24:40,360 Speaker 3: like he was intending to come back at some stage, 1855 01:24:40,640 --> 01:24:43,400 Speaker 3: might be coming back sooner than expected. Between the two 1856 01:24:43,439 --> 01:24:46,120 Speaker 3: of them. The thing that puts Richard Chambers slightly ahead 1857 01:24:46,160 --> 01:24:48,880 Speaker 3: probably of JEVN mcskimming. I'd imagine if you're looking for 1858 01:24:48,920 --> 01:24:51,559 Speaker 3: frontline experience is simply his frontline experience. He's just had 1859 01:24:51,600 --> 01:24:54,360 Speaker 3: more time being an actual cop. So anyway it'll be 1860 01:24:54,400 --> 01:24:56,759 Speaker 3: Really that seems to me like they've got some decent 1861 01:24:56,760 --> 01:24:59,080 Speaker 3: candidates there to choose from. If even if it's just 1862 01:24:59,080 --> 01:25:02,320 Speaker 3: those two two away from seven Kell du forer c Allen, 1863 01:25:02,479 --> 01:25:04,840 Speaker 3: so the reserve Bank in Australia held its official cash 1864 01:25:04,920 --> 01:25:07,280 Speaker 3: rate at four point three five percent for the seventh 1865 01:25:07,320 --> 01:25:10,240 Speaker 3: time today in a row of course if the FED sorry, 1866 01:25:10,280 --> 01:25:11,920 Speaker 3: and the Reserve Bank here in New Zealand have both 1867 01:25:11,960 --> 01:25:14,639 Speaker 3: dropped their rates in recent times, but the RBA said 1868 01:25:14,640 --> 01:25:17,080 Speaker 3: it will be sometime yet before inflation is sustainably in 1869 01:25:17,120 --> 01:25:20,000 Speaker 3: the target range. Paul Bloxham is agspec's chief economist. Hey, 1870 01:25:20,040 --> 01:25:23,479 Speaker 3: Paul good, Paul, listen, tell me if I'm wrong, But 1871 01:25:23,520 --> 01:25:26,439 Speaker 3: I thought that you guys with headline and inflation are 1872 01:25:26,479 --> 01:25:29,800 Speaker 3: expected to very shortly actually be within the margin, aren't you. 1873 01:25:31,000 --> 01:25:34,680 Speaker 22: Headline inflation is going to fall, and probably tomorrow when 1874 01:25:34,720 --> 01:25:37,360 Speaker 22: we get the CPI indicator this is not the CPI 1875 01:25:37,479 --> 01:25:40,439 Speaker 22: that it's our new timely monthly version. It's going to 1876 01:25:40,439 --> 01:25:43,760 Speaker 22: show headline inflation falling quite strongly actually, But this is 1877 01:25:43,800 --> 01:25:46,600 Speaker 22: not the key. The key is that headline inflation is 1878 01:25:46,760 --> 01:25:49,760 Speaker 22: likely to come down simply because the government has given 1879 01:25:49,880 --> 01:25:53,760 Speaker 22: energy subsidies, they've lowered people's electricity bills, and so that 1880 01:25:53,800 --> 01:25:57,559 Speaker 22: doesn't really constitute a sustainable fall and inflation. That's a 1881 01:25:57,560 --> 01:26:00,599 Speaker 22: policy measure. And so the RBA has made it absently clear, 1882 01:26:00,640 --> 01:26:02,759 Speaker 22: and today they were very very clear in their statement 1883 01:26:02,960 --> 01:26:05,400 Speaker 22: that they are going to focus on the underlying measures 1884 01:26:05,439 --> 01:26:07,920 Speaker 22: of inflation, not the headline rate of inflation, because that's 1885 01:26:07,960 --> 01:26:11,840 Speaker 22: being affected by these temporary policy changes, and so it'll 1886 01:26:11,840 --> 01:26:14,000 Speaker 22: be key to watch out for what the underlying measures do. 1887 01:26:14,320 --> 01:26:16,920 Speaker 22: But our take is the underlying measures that the trimmed mean, 1888 01:26:17,000 --> 01:26:19,120 Speaker 22: for example, is still are still going to be well 1889 01:26:19,160 --> 01:26:21,719 Speaker 22: above where the RBA is comfortable, well above the RBA's 1890 01:26:21,760 --> 01:26:24,479 Speaker 22: target band. And we saw that today in the tone 1891 01:26:24,479 --> 01:26:27,479 Speaker 22: of what they delivered, they remained on hold. They talked 1892 01:26:27,479 --> 01:26:29,800 Speaker 22: about the idea that they've not ruled anything in or 1893 01:26:29,840 --> 01:26:32,920 Speaker 22: anything out, and they noted that near term rate cuts 1894 01:26:32,920 --> 01:26:34,679 Speaker 22: are really not on the cards at the moment. 1895 01:26:34,840 --> 01:26:37,120 Speaker 3: Does it get awkward for Michelle Bollock to have the 1896 01:26:37,160 --> 01:26:40,240 Speaker 3: FED cutting by fifty, the Reserve Bank cutting maybe even 1897 01:26:40,320 --> 01:26:42,600 Speaker 3: by fifty at some stage at herders sitting. 1898 01:26:42,320 --> 01:26:46,439 Speaker 22: There, It certainly raises the bar. It raises the bar 1899 01:26:46,560 --> 01:26:48,320 Speaker 22: for them to think about where they're at and say 1900 01:26:48,320 --> 01:26:50,479 Speaker 22: to themselves, why are we different? You know, why is 1901 01:26:50,520 --> 01:26:53,920 Speaker 22: Australia in a different spot? And the argument we've been 1902 01:26:53,920 --> 01:26:56,040 Speaker 22: putting forward for a while is Australia is in a 1903 01:26:56,080 --> 01:26:58,439 Speaker 22: different spot We're in a different spot for a number 1904 01:26:58,479 --> 01:27:01,000 Speaker 22: of reasons. One of them is that the RBA didn't 1905 01:27:01,000 --> 01:27:03,360 Speaker 22: lift interest rates as much as everyone else. I've talked 1906 01:27:03,400 --> 01:27:05,320 Speaker 22: about this all year along with you. I know, you know, 1907 01:27:05,360 --> 01:27:07,920 Speaker 22: they did four hundred and twenty five basis points of hiking, 1908 01:27:08,160 --> 01:27:10,880 Speaker 22: whereas the Fed did five twenty five. The RBNS they 1909 01:27:10,880 --> 01:27:13,280 Speaker 22: did five twenty five, just did less, They did less tightening, 1910 01:27:13,400 --> 01:27:16,479 Speaker 22: and so one of the consequences is they haven't had quite. 1911 01:27:16,320 --> 01:27:17,360 Speaker 9: As much disinflation. 1912 01:27:17,479 --> 01:27:20,040 Speaker 22: And then the other really big factor is that the 1913 01:27:20,080 --> 01:27:23,320 Speaker 22: supply side productivity has been really quite quite quite weak, 1914 01:27:23,479 --> 01:27:25,960 Speaker 22: quite weak in Australia, and so we're not getting as 1915 01:27:26,000 --> 01:27:28,760 Speaker 22: much disinflation. We do look different to everyone else, but 1916 01:27:28,800 --> 01:27:31,439 Speaker 22: they're going to with other central banks now cutting rates 1917 01:27:31,479 --> 01:27:33,519 Speaker 22: across the world, it's going to be that bar is 1918 01:27:33,600 --> 01:27:36,559 Speaker 22: higher for them to convince themselves continually that we are different. 1919 01:27:36,880 --> 01:27:38,680 Speaker 22: We don't think rate cuts are coming through for a 1920 01:27:38,680 --> 01:27:40,479 Speaker 22: while though. We think rate cuts aren't coming into a 1921 01:27:40,520 --> 01:27:42,320 Speaker 22: well into twenty twenty five in Australia. 1922 01:27:42,800 --> 01:27:44,800 Speaker 3: What do you think about the feed having cut by 1923 01:27:44,840 --> 01:27:46,720 Speaker 3: fifty basis points and the impact it's going to have 1924 01:27:46,720 --> 01:27:48,719 Speaker 3: on the Reserve Bank in New Zealand at the next decision. 1925 01:27:49,760 --> 01:27:51,679 Speaker 22: Well, I think the first thing to take from it 1926 01:27:51,720 --> 01:27:54,439 Speaker 22: is that, actually, this is what a soft landing looks like. 1927 01:27:54,800 --> 01:27:56,559 Speaker 22: You know, the reason why the Fed's been able to 1928 01:27:56,560 --> 01:27:59,519 Speaker 22: cut this because inflation's coming down quite quickly and they 1929 01:27:59,520 --> 01:28:02,240 Speaker 22: feel that can deliver more support, and they've done that 1930 01:28:02,320 --> 01:28:04,519 Speaker 22: while the economy is actually the US economy is still 1931 01:28:04,520 --> 01:28:07,080 Speaker 22: got positive momentum, growth is still holding up pretty well. 1932 01:28:07,320 --> 01:28:09,280 Speaker 22: You want to be able to cut interest rates before 1933 01:28:09,360 --> 01:28:12,000 Speaker 22: growth slows down to prevent it from slowing down by 1934 01:28:12,080 --> 01:28:14,559 Speaker 22: very much. This is, again, what a soft landing looks like. 1935 01:28:14,600 --> 01:28:16,599 Speaker 22: I don't think it's a bad story. I think it's 1936 01:28:16,640 --> 01:28:18,479 Speaker 22: a good story. I don't think it has that much 1937 01:28:18,520 --> 01:28:21,639 Speaker 22: bearing on the RBNZA. I think the RBNZ, like the RBA, 1938 01:28:21,800 --> 01:28:24,040 Speaker 22: gets to run its own race and said it's policy 1939 01:28:24,080 --> 01:28:27,280 Speaker 22: based on domestic conditions. And I think the RBNZED will 1940 01:28:27,280 --> 01:28:30,080 Speaker 22: cut rates further twenty five in the next meeting, twenty 1941 01:28:30,080 --> 01:28:32,320 Speaker 22: five at the one after. We think that the RBNZ 1942 01:28:32,720 --> 01:28:35,800 Speaker 22: has broad inflation down enough to be able to continue 1943 01:28:36,040 --> 01:28:38,120 Speaker 22: to ease its policy setting a lot like the FED, 1944 01:28:38,200 --> 01:28:39,960 Speaker 22: but not necessarily because of the FED. 1945 01:28:40,080 --> 01:28:42,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, Paul, Hey, thank you. As always really appreciate your take. 1946 01:28:42,240 --> 01:28:45,519 Speaker 3: That's Paul Bloxham, HSBC's chief economist. Listen on this business 1947 01:28:45,520 --> 01:28:49,240 Speaker 3: with Winston Peters and the vote on the UN resolution 1948 01:28:49,360 --> 01:28:55,040 Speaker 3: read the settlers in various parts of it basically occupy 1949 01:28:55,080 --> 01:28:57,040 Speaker 3: pealasin the in territory. I think you can broadly say. 1950 01:28:57,479 --> 01:28:59,960 Speaker 3: David Seymour has now said that he's asked Winston Peter's 1951 01:29:00,080 --> 01:29:02,479 Speaker 3: in the future to talk to acts before they make 1952 01:29:02,520 --> 01:29:06,040 Speaker 3: any decisions like like voting on that. He says, we 1953 01:29:06,080 --> 01:29:08,320 Speaker 3: do support the government's position, we're compelled to do that. 1954 01:29:08,520 --> 01:29:11,120 Speaker 3: And I've also just had a quiet chat. It's been 1955 01:29:11,160 --> 01:29:13,439 Speaker 3: a pretty controversial decision for a lot of people. It's 1956 01:29:13,479 --> 01:29:16,479 Speaker 3: not something I've participated in. I've talked to Winston Peters. 1957 01:29:16,479 --> 01:29:19,400 Speaker 3: We had a friendly chat. I say, I said, you know, look, 1958 01:29:19,439 --> 01:29:21,160 Speaker 3: it would be good if we could chat about this 1959 01:29:21,280 --> 01:29:24,840 Speaker 3: war in future. So you can see trying to sort 1960 01:29:24,840 --> 01:29:27,120 Speaker 3: of say, not altogether happy with the way it's been handled, 1961 01:29:27,160 --> 01:29:30,719 Speaker 3: but jeez, David seem was treading carefully with Winston Peter's ego. 1962 01:29:30,800 --> 01:29:32,280 Speaker 3: They're a eighteen away from seven. 1963 01:29:33,000 --> 01:29:35,360 Speaker 2: Everything from SMEs to the big corporates. 1964 01:29:35,520 --> 01:29:39,640 Speaker 1: The Business Hour with Heather Dupliclis and my HR the 1965 01:29:39,840 --> 01:29:43,760 Speaker 1: HR solution for busy SMEs on news TALKSB. 1966 01:29:43,560 --> 01:29:45,680 Speaker 3: It's quarter two and with us now as Endebrady are 1967 01:29:45,760 --> 01:29:47,280 Speaker 3: UK correspondent Evening Ender. 1968 01:29:48,280 --> 01:29:49,600 Speaker 9: Hello, have they love it? To speak to you? 1969 01:29:49,880 --> 01:29:50,040 Speaker 12: Good? 1970 01:29:50,080 --> 01:29:50,759 Speaker 3: To talk to you always? 1971 01:29:50,800 --> 01:29:50,880 Speaker 9: Is? 1972 01:29:50,880 --> 01:29:53,719 Speaker 3: What do you make of Angela Rainer getting these vanity 1973 01:29:53,720 --> 01:29:54,679 Speaker 3: photographs taken? 1974 01:29:55,960 --> 01:29:59,120 Speaker 31: Well, Look, this is a spillover from the Conservative government 1975 01:29:59,160 --> 01:30:03,120 Speaker 31: because they had professional photographers. Boris Johnson had his own 1976 01:30:03,160 --> 01:30:07,719 Speaker 31: professional photographer, and it is it's a control mechanism basically 1977 01:30:07,840 --> 01:30:10,080 Speaker 31: to make sure that the pictures that end up in 1978 01:30:10,080 --> 01:30:13,479 Speaker 31: the papers and nobody is unhappy with them. And look, 1979 01:30:13,800 --> 01:30:17,400 Speaker 31: whatever anyone thinks in public life of photographers who work 1980 01:30:17,479 --> 01:30:19,160 Speaker 31: for newspapers. 1981 01:30:18,800 --> 01:30:22,479 Speaker 9: They're there to document history. They are there to document 1982 01:30:22,560 --> 01:30:26,360 Speaker 9: the news and archive life as they see it, not 1983 01:30:26,479 --> 01:30:29,200 Speaker 9: how you want to be seen. And we've we've had some. 1984 01:30:29,240 --> 01:30:31,960 Speaker 31: Kind of stupid pictures over the years of politicians in 1985 01:30:32,000 --> 01:30:34,599 Speaker 31: public doing stupid things and they get on the front 1986 01:30:34,600 --> 01:30:36,720 Speaker 31: pages and the narrative kind of sticks. I mean, we 1987 01:30:36,760 --> 01:30:39,679 Speaker 31: had a guy, a labor politician, he was the labor leader, 1988 01:30:39,840 --> 01:30:42,760 Speaker 31: Ed Milliband, he never became Prime Minister, and there was 1989 01:30:42,800 --> 01:30:45,639 Speaker 31: a picture of him eating a bacon sandwich one day 1990 01:30:46,280 --> 01:30:48,680 Speaker 31: that a photographer took and it was he just made 1991 01:30:48,680 --> 01:30:51,080 Speaker 31: a mess of eating a sandwich, And that basically was 1992 01:30:51,080 --> 01:30:53,360 Speaker 31: the narrative that you wouldn't let this guy run the country. 1993 01:30:53,400 --> 01:30:56,920 Speaker 9: You can't even eat a sandwich. So I think what Browner. 1994 01:30:56,640 --> 01:30:59,960 Speaker 31: Is doing basically is a spillover from everything that went 1995 01:31:00,080 --> 01:31:02,920 Speaker 31: on in Downing Street on theer Boris Johnson, that taxpayer 1996 01:31:02,960 --> 01:31:05,320 Speaker 31: money was put aside for professional photographers. 1997 01:31:05,600 --> 01:31:09,640 Speaker 9: Johnson had a huge, huge ego, and you know, the 1998 01:31:09,680 --> 01:31:11,840 Speaker 9: money's there and she's just using it, same as the 1999 01:31:11,840 --> 01:31:12,400 Speaker 9: Tories did. 2000 01:31:13,000 --> 01:31:15,200 Speaker 3: What about her drinking whiskey through a straw though, that's 2001 01:31:15,240 --> 01:31:16,560 Speaker 3: gonna be some sort of a crime. 2002 01:31:18,400 --> 01:31:19,240 Speaker 9: Yes, and she was. 2003 01:31:19,479 --> 01:31:22,760 Speaker 31: Look, Look, she gets a lot of attention in the 2004 01:31:22,800 --> 01:31:26,200 Speaker 31: media because an awful lot of people she's quite divisive. Look, 2005 01:31:26,280 --> 01:31:29,639 Speaker 31: she's a working class girl from a working class background 2006 01:31:29,680 --> 01:31:32,519 Speaker 31: and she's deputy Prime minister. An awful lot of people 2007 01:31:32,560 --> 01:31:35,360 Speaker 31: here on the right hate her for that very reason. 2008 01:31:35,600 --> 01:31:37,840 Speaker 31: So whatever she wears tomorrow, she goes out and wears 2009 01:31:37,840 --> 01:31:40,439 Speaker 31: a ten dollars blouse tomorrow, they will say, oh my god, 2010 01:31:40,560 --> 01:31:42,840 Speaker 31: she's deputy prime minister. Wouldn't she dress up, make an 2011 01:31:42,840 --> 01:31:45,320 Speaker 31: effort and then if she's seen in the Designer Frock 2012 01:31:45,439 --> 01:31:47,840 Speaker 31: next week, it'll be oh my god, who's paying for this? 2013 01:31:48,120 --> 01:31:48,760 Speaker 9: She can't win. 2014 01:31:49,680 --> 01:31:51,400 Speaker 3: It was not gonna win if she's drinking whiskey out 2015 01:31:51,400 --> 01:31:53,280 Speaker 3: of a straw. But maybe it's a thing that's going 2016 01:31:53,360 --> 01:31:54,519 Speaker 3: to catch on. Hey, listen it. 2017 01:31:54,520 --> 01:31:54,880 Speaker 5: How is it? 2018 01:31:54,960 --> 01:31:57,719 Speaker 3: Five and a half percent pay rise for nurses not enough? 2019 01:31:59,160 --> 01:32:00,800 Speaker 9: They say that they deserve more. 2020 01:32:00,880 --> 01:32:03,040 Speaker 31: And the inflation last year, at the start of last 2021 01:32:03,120 --> 01:32:05,760 Speaker 31: year was running at eleven percent. And I think what's 2022 01:32:05,760 --> 01:32:09,120 Speaker 31: happened is they've seen the junior doctors get thirty five 2023 01:32:09,240 --> 01:32:12,320 Speaker 31: percent over the next couple of years. They've seen train 2024 01:32:12,439 --> 01:32:16,120 Speaker 31: drivers get twenty two percent, and I think the nurses 2025 01:32:16,160 --> 01:32:17,760 Speaker 31: have just looked around and thought, do you know what? 2026 01:32:18,240 --> 01:32:20,400 Speaker 9: You all were happy enough to stand every. 2027 01:32:20,160 --> 01:32:23,360 Speaker 31: Thursday evening during COVID on your doorsteps and bang pots 2028 01:32:23,360 --> 01:32:25,800 Speaker 31: and pans and clap for us. Well, you know the 2029 01:32:25,840 --> 01:32:29,600 Speaker 31: time for clapping is over. They were the absolute heroines 2030 01:32:29,640 --> 01:32:31,320 Speaker 31: and heroes of the pandemic. 2031 01:32:31,600 --> 01:32:33,760 Speaker 9: My mother was a nurse in Ireland. She was a 2032 01:32:33,760 --> 01:32:34,719 Speaker 9: psychiatric nurse. 2033 01:32:35,080 --> 01:32:38,800 Speaker 31: Nurses do a bloody, bloody good job and they don't 2034 01:32:38,840 --> 01:32:41,200 Speaker 31: get paid anywhere near what they should. 2035 01:32:41,360 --> 01:32:43,320 Speaker 9: And I think a lot of nurses here are a 2036 01:32:43,400 --> 01:32:44,000 Speaker 9: breaking point. 2037 01:32:44,000 --> 01:32:46,000 Speaker 31: And I think the big winners out of this will 2038 01:32:46,040 --> 01:32:49,120 Speaker 31: be the health services of New Zealand, Australia, Canada, United 2039 01:32:49,120 --> 01:32:52,000 Speaker 31: States do buy where people want to go and actually are. 2040 01:32:51,920 --> 01:32:54,280 Speaker 9: In a living and have an awful lot less stressed. 2041 01:32:55,080 --> 01:32:57,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, I believe that now Kiostama speech right, He's going 2042 01:32:58,000 --> 01:32:59,920 Speaker 3: to see in his vision for Britain today at the 2043 01:33:00,320 --> 01:33:03,080 Speaker 3: party conference. Are you expecting it to be a real 2044 01:33:03,120 --> 01:33:04,080 Speaker 3: tub thump or. 2045 01:33:03,960 --> 01:33:09,519 Speaker 9: What he doesn't really do? Rasmetass. He's not Tony Blair. 2046 01:33:09,560 --> 01:33:13,280 Speaker 31: I mean everyone's expecting Blair and you know, dream music 2047 01:33:13,320 --> 01:33:15,400 Speaker 31: in the background and things can only get better. 2048 01:33:15,720 --> 01:33:18,480 Speaker 9: He's a pragmatist. But I think the problem. 2049 01:33:18,120 --> 01:33:20,200 Speaker 31: Starmer has now is he spent the last eight weeks 2050 01:33:20,200 --> 01:33:22,719 Speaker 31: telling everyone how bad it is. And it is bad 2051 01:33:22,760 --> 01:33:26,240 Speaker 31: here seven million people on the waiting list for hospital treatment, 2052 01:33:26,400 --> 01:33:30,600 Speaker 31: seven million people waiting for hospital treatment in Britain. A 2053 01:33:30,680 --> 01:33:35,320 Speaker 31: GDP debt is now one hundred percent of GDP. Absolutely 2054 01:33:35,360 --> 01:33:38,320 Speaker 31: everything in this country is broken. And I think, you know. 2055 01:33:38,479 --> 01:33:41,200 Speaker 9: As much as people hated the last lot, they. 2056 01:33:41,120 --> 01:33:44,160 Speaker 31: Need to hear that he has got some solutions and 2057 01:33:44,520 --> 01:33:47,160 Speaker 31: Hopefully today's the day where he just spells out that 2058 01:33:47,479 --> 01:33:50,360 Speaker 31: you know there are better days coming, but just bear 2059 01:33:50,400 --> 01:33:53,639 Speaker 31: with me. We need ideas, not word salad. I mean 2060 01:33:53,680 --> 01:33:57,120 Speaker 31: we've had fourteen years of word salad under the Conservatives 2061 01:33:57,160 --> 01:34:00,519 Speaker 31: and it's got Britain absolutely nowhere. So all eyes on 2062 01:34:00,560 --> 01:34:02,760 Speaker 31: Starmer today. I think the big problem he has is 2063 01:34:02,800 --> 01:34:05,479 Speaker 31: there's no money. There's simply no money left in the pot. 2064 01:34:05,840 --> 01:34:08,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, it would be tough to have to govern like that. 2065 01:34:08,320 --> 01:34:10,120 Speaker 3: And it's always good to talk to you. I appreciate it. 2066 01:34:10,120 --> 01:34:11,920 Speaker 3: We'll talk to you in a couple of days. In the Brady, 2067 01:34:11,920 --> 01:34:14,559 Speaker 3: a UK correspondent. Look, I don't know if you've ever 2068 01:34:14,640 --> 01:34:16,920 Speaker 3: dreamed of owning a gang pad, but maybe you need to, 2069 01:34:16,960 --> 01:34:20,439 Speaker 3: because boy, have I got an opportunity for you. In fact, 2070 01:34:20,479 --> 01:34:22,559 Speaker 3: it's probably gone under the Ham or already I think 2071 01:34:22,560 --> 01:34:26,040 Speaker 3: it was going. Laura, wasn't your your dream house? In 2072 01:34:26,080 --> 01:34:28,960 Speaker 3: Wigram the Headhunter's HQ under the Hammer at half past six, 2073 01:34:29,840 --> 01:34:31,479 Speaker 3: it was do you know how much it's sold for? 2074 01:34:31,560 --> 01:34:33,360 Speaker 3: You got to look for the This is good research 2075 01:34:33,400 --> 01:34:35,360 Speaker 3: for us. We need this. Laura is going to look 2076 01:34:35,400 --> 01:34:36,800 Speaker 3: up how much it's sold for if it to sell 2077 01:34:36,840 --> 01:34:39,479 Speaker 3: at all, it's it's got a lot going for it. It's 2078 01:34:39,360 --> 01:34:41,519 Speaker 3: a it's a desirable corner site that this cop has 2079 01:34:41,520 --> 01:34:43,760 Speaker 3: obviously took it off the headhunters or something like that, 2080 01:34:44,240 --> 01:34:49,080 Speaker 3: and anyway, desirable corner site, fantastic development opportunity, nine hundred 2081 01:34:49,160 --> 01:34:52,920 Speaker 3: square meters of residential suburban land in two titles. A 2082 01:34:53,000 --> 01:34:55,080 Speaker 3: bit of a mess. It's a do or upper. I 2083 01:34:55,120 --> 01:34:57,000 Speaker 3: think we'd call it a do or upper. It's a 2084 01:34:57,000 --> 01:35:02,600 Speaker 3: small brown wooded bungalow, very high fence, which, you know, 2085 01:35:02,680 --> 01:35:06,320 Speaker 3: depending on how you feel about your neighbors or you know, 2086 01:35:07,200 --> 01:35:09,960 Speaker 3: the police, it could be quite handy for you to 2087 01:35:09,960 --> 01:35:13,320 Speaker 3: have that high fence. Unfortunately, what's behind the high fence 2088 01:35:13,400 --> 01:35:16,080 Speaker 3: is just a mess. It's just like brown broken furniture, 2089 01:35:16,120 --> 01:35:20,040 Speaker 3: appliances littering the ground. A washing line, old school washing 2090 01:35:20,080 --> 01:35:23,960 Speaker 3: line still standing there. So that's all there. They did 2091 01:35:24,000 --> 01:35:26,400 Speaker 3: do a little bit of alterations. They tried to jazz 2092 01:35:26,479 --> 01:35:28,439 Speaker 3: up the place. Chucked in a new bathroom, chucked in 2093 01:35:28,439 --> 01:35:32,880 Speaker 3: a new kitchen, well equipped motorbike repair shop because that's 2094 01:35:32,920 --> 01:35:35,680 Speaker 3: what we all need. And a bar and lounge and 2095 01:35:35,720 --> 01:35:38,800 Speaker 3: some more accommodation, probably a like bunk style, so you could, 2096 01:35:38,880 --> 01:35:41,559 Speaker 3: you know, have all of your friends over at exactly 2097 01:35:41,680 --> 01:35:45,160 Speaker 3: the same time. Lots of parking obviously, so you can 2098 01:35:45,200 --> 01:35:47,320 Speaker 3: have more of your friends as well as nothing the 2099 01:35:47,320 --> 01:35:51,080 Speaker 3: headhunters love more than a good party. It last sold 2100 01:35:51,240 --> 01:35:53,920 Speaker 3: in July twenty eleven for two hundred and fifty nine 2101 01:35:53,920 --> 01:35:57,479 Speaker 3: thousand dollars, and the most recent valuation two years ago 2102 01:35:57,680 --> 01:36:01,479 Speaker 3: was around about five hundred thousand, so that's probably around 2103 01:36:01,479 --> 01:36:03,559 Speaker 3: about where you're looking for. Obviously, brought down slightly by 2104 01:36:03,600 --> 01:36:04,880 Speaker 3: all of the tidy up that you're going to have 2105 01:36:04,920 --> 01:36:06,880 Speaker 3: to do in the state of disrepair and stuff. But man, 2106 01:36:06,920 --> 01:36:09,040 Speaker 3: I tell you what, if you look at a first 2107 01:36:09,040 --> 01:36:11,439 Speaker 3: home buyer, what are you complaining about? There you go 2108 01:36:11,520 --> 01:36:16,799 Speaker 3: Workham property. May have a few problems with previous owners 2109 01:36:18,120 --> 01:36:20,639 Speaker 3: who may get to know you a little bit by 2110 01:36:20,640 --> 01:36:23,000 Speaker 3: turning up uninvited, but hey, look there you go entry 2111 01:36:23,080 --> 01:36:24,439 Speaker 3: level eight away from seven. 2112 01:36:26,360 --> 01:36:30,280 Speaker 1: Whether it's macro, MicroB or just plain economics. It's all 2113 01:36:30,280 --> 01:36:33,920 Speaker 1: on The Business Hour with Heather Duplicy, Allen and my HR, 2114 01:36:34,280 --> 01:36:37,400 Speaker 1: the HR platform for SME newsed talksp. 2115 01:36:38,560 --> 01:36:43,120 Speaker 3: Listen. I've avoided talking about this all the way through 2116 01:36:43,160 --> 01:36:45,240 Speaker 3: the show, but I feel like I just want to. 2117 01:36:45,479 --> 01:36:47,840 Speaker 3: I just want to say this really quickly, because when 2118 01:36:47,920 --> 01:36:51,040 Speaker 3: Richard Hills was in earlier Auckland counselor, he also said 2119 01:36:51,040 --> 01:36:52,840 Speaker 3: the same thing to me, and so it made me 2120 01:36:52,880 --> 01:36:54,599 Speaker 3: feel like I wasn't just going to be a curmudgeon 2121 01:36:54,640 --> 01:36:56,600 Speaker 3: if I if I said this. So I'm just going 2122 01:36:56,680 --> 01:36:58,160 Speaker 3: to say this. Oh, by the way, the household for 2123 01:36:58,160 --> 01:37:01,320 Speaker 3: three hundred and seventy eight thousand dollars bargain valued at 2124 01:37:01,320 --> 01:37:05,040 Speaker 3: five hundred sold for three seventy a's comes with extra 2125 01:37:05,120 --> 01:37:11,439 Speaker 3: appliances lying outside and unconsented alterations and a washing line. 2126 01:37:11,560 --> 01:37:13,240 Speaker 3: That's a bargain. I don't know. They better have been 2127 01:37:13,280 --> 01:37:14,920 Speaker 3: a first home by it who got in there, otherwise 2128 01:37:14,920 --> 01:37:18,439 Speaker 3: I'd be like, yeah, you are ungrateful, stop complaining anyway. 2129 01:37:18,479 --> 01:37:20,519 Speaker 3: So this is what I want to say. There is 2130 01:37:20,560 --> 01:37:23,719 Speaker 3: a scandal in Auckland today because you remember the council 2131 01:37:23,720 --> 01:37:26,479 Speaker 3: took away all of the city's bins. And when they 2132 01:37:26,520 --> 01:37:28,200 Speaker 3: took away this, well, not all of but like a 2133 01:37:28,240 --> 01:37:31,000 Speaker 3: fast proportion, like a big number. It was hundreds, hundreds 2134 01:37:31,000 --> 01:37:33,120 Speaker 3: and hundreds of bins. And when they took them away, 2135 01:37:33,240 --> 01:37:35,880 Speaker 3: they said, don't worry, we will recycle these bins. We 2136 01:37:35,920 --> 01:37:38,960 Speaker 3: will replace craddy broken bins. By using these bins and 2137 01:37:39,000 --> 01:37:41,599 Speaker 3: everybody's oh, thank you, okay, cool, that's all right. Then 2138 01:37:42,320 --> 01:37:46,439 Speaker 3: unfortunately somebody called Jason has just found And I don't 2139 01:37:46,439 --> 01:37:48,559 Speaker 3: want to say Jason's full name because I don't want 2140 01:37:48,560 --> 01:37:54,040 Speaker 3: to cause him unnecessary trouble for being numpty. But Jason 2141 01:37:54,080 --> 01:37:57,519 Speaker 3: got very upset because he went to Auckland Domain and 2142 01:37:57,520 --> 01:38:00,400 Speaker 3: he looked behind the fence and he saw all bins 2143 01:38:00,439 --> 01:38:03,000 Speaker 3: lying there in what he calls a bin graveyard. He 2144 01:38:03,080 --> 01:38:04,840 Speaker 3: was so upset about it he decided to get in 2145 01:38:04,880 --> 01:38:07,240 Speaker 3: touch with the papers about that, and he said he 2146 01:38:07,320 --> 01:38:09,960 Speaker 3: was really surprised that the bins were stored in such 2147 01:38:09,960 --> 01:38:12,599 Speaker 3: a disrespectful manner, like they're being chucked in a pile. 2148 01:38:15,000 --> 01:38:19,559 Speaker 3: What's the problem, Jason, what's your problem? The bins were 2149 01:38:19,680 --> 01:38:23,880 Speaker 3: lying outside. That's where bins live. Bins live outside. That's 2150 01:38:24,040 --> 01:38:26,839 Speaker 3: they are made to weather the conditions because they are bins. 2151 01:38:27,240 --> 01:38:29,519 Speaker 3: So what's the problem with the bins? Did you want 2152 01:38:29,520 --> 01:38:31,639 Speaker 3: the bins stacked? Because I mean, we can, we can 2153 01:38:31,680 --> 01:38:34,800 Speaker 3: pay somebody to go and stack the bins like little Domino's, 2154 01:38:34,840 --> 01:38:36,400 Speaker 3: all next to each other, so it looks like an 2155 01:38:36,479 --> 01:38:38,320 Speaker 3: orderly kind of I mean, if if what we're dealing 2156 01:38:38,360 --> 01:38:40,920 Speaker 3: with you is but OCD which want to have them tidy, 2157 01:38:41,000 --> 01:38:43,960 Speaker 3: we can do that. But if what you're advocating, Jason 2158 01:38:44,400 --> 01:38:46,920 Speaker 3: is that we take the outdoor bins and put them 2159 01:38:46,960 --> 01:38:50,880 Speaker 3: in internal storage, get a grip mate, because that's that's 2160 01:38:50,880 --> 01:38:53,479 Speaker 3: going to cost us money to put the bins somewhere inside. Look, 2161 01:38:53,560 --> 01:38:57,400 Speaker 3: what the hell? Also, can the media please have higher 2162 01:38:57,439 --> 01:38:59,960 Speaker 3: bar for things that we complain about. That's not a complaint, 2163 01:39:00,680 --> 01:39:02,599 Speaker 3: that's just put it on your Twitter account. 2164 01:39:02,880 --> 01:39:03,240 Speaker 5: Andy. 2165 01:39:04,320 --> 01:39:09,519 Speaker 32: Yeah, imagine Jason with an organic an organic collection.
