1 00:00:01,720 --> 00:00:04,400 Speaker 1: Pressing the newsmakers to get the real story. 2 00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:07,920 Speaker 2: It's Jack Dame on, hither duper c Ellen drive with 3 00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:10,560 Speaker 2: one New Zealand, Let's get connected. 4 00:00:10,560 --> 00:00:11,600 Speaker 1: And New Stork said, b. 5 00:00:16,280 --> 00:00:19,919 Speaker 3: I had God on my side. The words of Donald J. 6 00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:25,680 Speaker 3: Trump as he accepted the nomination of the Republican Party. 7 00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:28,639 Speaker 3: He has just finished his big speech in Milwaukee at 8 00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:32,159 Speaker 3: the Republican National Conventions. The balloons are falling from the 9 00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:36,600 Speaker 3: ceiling as I speak. The speech was pump has to 10 00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:39,960 Speaker 3: be said, A mixed bag, mixed bag, some really amazing 11 00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:43,400 Speaker 3: compelling parts. I think probably the most compelling was when 12 00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:47,080 Speaker 3: Trump was explaining exactly what happened from his perspective and 13 00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:51,360 Speaker 3: surviving that attempt at assassination the other day. Some bits, 14 00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:53,480 Speaker 3: it's fair to say, went a little bit off peace, 15 00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:56,000 Speaker 3: as is Donald Trump's want. But we're going to make 16 00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:57,880 Speaker 3: sure we bring you all of the highlights from his 17 00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:02,160 Speaker 3: presentation at the RNC. Right now, it is seven minutes past. 18 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:04,679 Speaker 1: Four, Jack Team, When is. 19 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:07,559 Speaker 3: Rugby goin to learn that chasing the short term bucks 20 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:12,160 Speaker 3: damages the long term viability of the game. I have 21 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:16,200 Speaker 3: absolutely no problem whatsoever with the All Blacks playing Fiji, 22 00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:20,800 Speaker 3: But how I wish tomorrow afternoon's game was in Suva, 23 00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:25,280 Speaker 3: or in Hamilton or New Plymouth or Nelson, or anywhere 24 00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 3: within either of the two countries that are actually contesting 25 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,880 Speaker 3: the game. Look, sure, the US is a big market, 26 00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:34,200 Speaker 3: but rugby is never going to be more than an 27 00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:39,280 Speaker 3: off broadway sport there. And it is especially galling to 28 00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 3: see a team like Fiji, who you just know would 29 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:45,920 Speaker 3: benefit so much from having the contest on home soil, 30 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 3: instead have their fans tune in live to coverage from 31 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:56,000 Speaker 3: southern California, of all places. In the same way that 32 00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:59,400 Speaker 3: T twenty cricket is probably the best way to promote 33 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,760 Speaker 3: cricket into new markets, I reckon rugby sevens should be 34 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 3: the sport's full time outreach program. Faster, simpler, more unpredictable, 35 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 3: no mucking around setting scrums or fussing at the breakdown. 36 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 3: You got to say, the game tomorrow being played in 37 00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 3: San Diego stinks of money. It stinks of a grab 38 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,919 Speaker 3: for a short term buck. And here's the thing. Rugby 39 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,520 Speaker 3: is in a really tricky place in this country. And 40 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 3: if you can learn anything from rugby league, it's that 41 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 3: the way to firm up the long term future of 42 00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:36,519 Speaker 3: the game and ensure you've actually got a business twenty 43 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 3: years from now is to get closer to your fans, 44 00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:44,360 Speaker 3: not further away. Jack Team two ninety two is our 45 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:47,840 Speaker 3: text number. Jacket neewstalks dB dot co dot nz is 46 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:51,079 Speaker 3: my email address. It's nine past four. Auckland restaurant term 47 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:54,240 Speaker 3: Mandy Lusk has written an open letter today calling on 48 00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 3: people and businesses to help the hospitality industry to survive. 49 00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:03,400 Speaker 3: Last week, the Chonic restaurant SPQR closed, and Vivacci owner 50 00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:06,519 Speaker 3: Mandy Lusk says she's heard of three other restaurants closing 51 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 3: in the next week, and her own restaurant may well 52 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 3: be hitting in the same direction. She's with us this 53 00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 3: safternoon high Mandy Hijack, So what do you want? 54 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:20,080 Speaker 4: What we're asking is just we're not asking for handouts. 55 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:22,359 Speaker 4: We're just asking for a little bit of a hand up. 56 00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:27,120 Speaker 4: And I saw so many comments on social media following 57 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:30,800 Speaker 4: s pqr's demise last week, and so many people saying 58 00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:33,440 Speaker 4: they wish they'd known how hard it was, and they 59 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 4: wish they'd been able to help. And I thought, we've 60 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 4: actually got nothing to lose, So so much of the 61 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 4: debt of ESTQR is probably related to lockdown periods, and 62 00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 4: we're all trying to pay back things like small business 63 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,800 Speaker 4: loans that we had to take out because wage subsiduce 64 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 4: didn't cover sick pay and holiday pay and things for 65 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 4: our team, and we were banned from earning anything. And 66 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 4: it's really hard, you know, particularly with Auckland, although this 67 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 4: is a nationwide problem. You know, we went from COVID 68 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 4: to floods to a recession and none of us had 69 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 4: anything left in the tank. And it's quite difficult when 70 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 4: people are expecting us to pay back money and debts 71 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:20,840 Speaker 4: from periods when we literally couldn't earn a thing that 72 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:24,280 Speaker 4: were a lot out of our own businesses. If you're 73 00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 4: not busy enough now, it's really hard to pay those 74 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 4: things back and people get a bit impatient and people 75 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:34,279 Speaker 4: are hunkering down. We understand that people don't have money, 76 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 4: but there are a few big businesses out there that 77 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 4: did do okay, and we're just asking maybe if they 78 00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:44,039 Speaker 4: could share the love a little bit and stop getting 79 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:48,040 Speaker 4: a supermarket delivery to their boardroom and having drinks after 80 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 4: work there and maybe pop downstairs wherever they are in 81 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 4: New Zealand or pop next door. Yeah, and just to 82 00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 4: help us. Most of us are working eighty hour weeks 83 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 4: and we don't have time to we don't have time 84 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:09,680 Speaker 4: to network and meet people and try and find some 85 00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:12,039 Speaker 4: new customers. So we're just asking if maybe some of 86 00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 4: those nearest could help introduce them to other people. 87 00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 3: So many just give us some context here. We've obviously 88 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:22,039 Speaker 3: seen SPQRS numbers, but just how tough is it for 89 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 3: the hospital industry right now? 90 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:29,480 Speaker 4: It's horrendous, And I think you know, people have changed 91 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 4: and the way people live their lives have changed. So 92 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 4: we're finding that people have no hesitation and just if 93 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:41,719 Speaker 4: it rains, they cancel. They just and they think they're 94 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:44,800 Speaker 4: the only person canceling. But I've spoke to someone who 95 00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 4: lost forty one people on Sunday night and it's not 96 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:50,920 Speaker 4: a particularly big business and it was all weather related, 97 00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:54,960 Speaker 4: and so we're just we have to work out a 98 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:56,800 Speaker 4: way of being a little bit more resilient. But we've 99 00:05:56,839 --> 00:06:02,360 Speaker 4: got nothing left. And some of those debts with this particular, 100 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:05,599 Speaker 4: some of the comments that people have made, you know, 101 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 4: how less do they get that wrack up that much debt? 102 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:10,839 Speaker 4: Most of their text here, I would say probably seventy 103 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:14,479 Speaker 4: to eighty percent of it would be penalties. Yeah, And 104 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 4: so what we're just saying to people is if they 105 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:20,680 Speaker 4: could just adopt a little local business, doesn't matter if 106 00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:24,120 Speaker 4: they do it for a week or a month, particularly 107 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 4: the business, the businesses, they have that ability to really 108 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,880 Speaker 4: help our industry. You know, if someone sends you an 109 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 4: email and concerns a meeting at your office, can you 110 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 4: just maybe put on the bottom Hey, instead of meeting 111 00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:38,000 Speaker 4: in your office, can we meet downstairs at this little 112 00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:39,880 Speaker 4: cafe there are adopting for the months. 113 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 3: Yeah. So I look good on you, Mandy, you know, 114 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 3: for getting the message out there, because I just think 115 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:48,040 Speaker 3: it's really important to be clear. You're not asking for 116 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 3: a government handout here. You're not asking for government assistance. 117 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 3: You're looking for bigger businesses who are a little bit 118 00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:56,600 Speaker 3: more comfortable than a lot of hospitality businesses are right 119 00:06:56,600 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 3: now to essentially adopt a hospital business from aunt or two. 120 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 4: Yep, just adopt a spot, share a love, love your local, 121 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 4: just something just to make them aware, because I think 122 00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 4: so many of them don't realize. I know that it's 123 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:12,880 Speaker 4: difficult because some of them don't want to be seen 124 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:16,960 Speaker 4: to be spending money either, and these tough times and 125 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 4: so that's something we are coming up against them to 126 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 4: be conscious of, you know, the Reserve Bank's request to 127 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:26,520 Speaker 4: put hid in. But there's the repels go far and 128 00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,120 Speaker 4: wide when these small businesses all fail. It's not just 129 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 4: it's not just the hospital business that fails. It's the 130 00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 4: tomato grower and the wine the small winery, and a 131 00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 4: lot of those places don't they don't have outlets through supermarkets, 132 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 4: you know. Restaurants and cafes and bars are their only 133 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 4: way of selling their small, artisan all produce. So we're 134 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 4: just kind of hoping that maybe people can just think 135 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:52,680 Speaker 4: about it and just yeah, adopt someone for a little 136 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:54,960 Speaker 4: while and help us all. 137 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:57,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, I well said Mandy, thanks for your time. We 138 00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 3: really appreciate it. That is Restrotur coiner of Vivachi Restaurant, 139 00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:04,760 Speaker 3: Mandy Lusk, thank you for your feedback. 140 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 5: Jack. 141 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 3: I would absolutely love to supposs hospital to support hospital 142 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:10,520 Speaker 3: businesses as much as possible. Truth be said, it's hard 143 00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 3: enough putting basics on the table right now. This is 144 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 3: the thing. I think this is Mandy's point, right, look 145 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:17,720 Speaker 3: into big businesses, big businesses, ones that might have a 146 00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 3: little bit more fat than most of us have in 147 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 3: our household. Budgets at the moment, just to try and 148 00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:25,600 Speaker 3: support the businesses in their neighborhood at the moment. Anyway, 149 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:27,280 Speaker 3: you can flick as the text. You've got some thoughts 150 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 3: on that. We are going to bring you some of 151 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 3: the Donald Trump's incredible speech at the Republican National Conference 152 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:37,040 Speaker 3: in Milwaukee. Yeah, a wide ranging speech, went for more 153 00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:39,439 Speaker 3: than an hour. He's still on stage with his family 154 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 3: at the moment, so some of that very shortly. Right now, 155 00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 3: it's quarter past four. 156 00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:47,079 Speaker 2: Digging deeper into the day's headlines, it's hither duper c 157 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 2: Allen drive with one New Zealand one giant leaf for 158 00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 2: business use talks. 159 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 3: It balks it b eighteen past four.

If we all chip in, then they can survive, 166 00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 3: says Brendan Simon says it's catch twenty two. If restaurants 167 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 3: went so expensive, they could possibly get a little bit 168 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:14,280 Speaker 3: more so. Donald Trump has just finished his speech at 169 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:18,360 Speaker 3: the Republican National convention. There was a lot of attention 170 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:21,359 Speaker 3: on the first part of the speech as he recounted 171 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 3: the events of last weekend when he was almost killed. 172 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 7: So many people have asked me what happened? Tell us 173 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:33,079 Speaker 7: what happened, please, And therefore I will tell you exactly 174 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 7: what happened, and you'll never hear it from me a 175 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:40,319 Speaker 7: second time because it's actually too painful to tell. 176 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 3: And like any good story, he begins like this, it was. 177 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 7: A warm, beautiful day in the early evening in Butler 178 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:53,719 Speaker 7: Township in the Great Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. 179 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:57,679 Speaker 3: He describes how he's giving that speech about immigration and 180 00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:00,720 Speaker 3: border controls and is turning to a chart that is 181 00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 3: just slightly behind him. 182 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:07,719 Speaker 7: In order to see the chart. I started to like this, 183 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:16,080 Speaker 7: turned to my right and was ready to begin a 184 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:20,600 Speaker 7: little bit further turn, which I'm very lucky I didn't do. 185 00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 7: When I heard a loud whizzing sound and felt something 186 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:34,040 Speaker 7: hit me really really hard on my right ear. I 187 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:39,199 Speaker 7: said to myself, wow, what was that. It can only 188 00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 7: be a bullet, and moved my right hand to my 189 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:47,680 Speaker 7: ear brought it down. My hand was covered with blood, 190 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:51,440 Speaker 7: just absolutely blood all over the place. 191 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 3: I gotta say, watching it was just utterly compelling. He 192 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:57,679 Speaker 3: had not only the entire room in the palm of 193 00:10:57,720 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 3: his hand, but I think millions of people watching will 194 00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:03,200 Speaker 3: bring you more of his descriptions of that event very shortly. 195 00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 3: Right now, though it is twenty minutes past four. On 196 00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:08,720 Speaker 3: news Talks, he'ed b. Jason Pine is hosting Weekend Sport 197 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 3: from midday to three pm tomorrow and Sunday on News 198 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 3: Talks z'd b. Although of course there is a pretty 199 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:16,440 Speaker 3: significant event tomorrow afternoon. 200 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:18,679 Speaker 8: Piney, Yeah, I felt like I'm the warm up act 201 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:21,560 Speaker 8: coming on after the main act there. I must say, 202 00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:23,719 Speaker 8: I don't know whether I can follow that, but I'll 203 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 8: give it a crack. 204 00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:24,480 Speaker 9: Yeah. 205 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:27,440 Speaker 8: All blacks Fiji two thirty five tomorrow afternoon. I wish 206 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:30,480 Speaker 8: like you, Jack, this was in Sufa, all our Toka, 207 00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 8: but no. San Diego is where we're going tomorrow. 208 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 3: And another big rugby news today, Ardie Savia is apparently 209 00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 3: off to more Onana PACIFICA. 210 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 8: I was shocked by this when I first heard it. 211 00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:40,959 Speaker 8: Wouldn't say shocked, I was. I was gutted. I'm a 212 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:42,880 Speaker 8: Hurricanes fan, as you know. But then I thought more 213 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:45,400 Speaker 8: about I thought, you know what this is actually quite 214 00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:46,640 Speaker 8: cool for MOREAA PACIFICA. 215 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:46,960 Speaker 2: Yeah. 216 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:51,440 Speaker 8: One, they get the manna and the wholehearted commitment and 217 00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 8: the relevance that is provided by a guy like Ardie Savia. 218 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:57,200 Speaker 8: So it's a win for them. And then you look 219 00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 8: at the Hurricanes and you think, well, in the season 220 00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:00,760 Speaker 8: just gone, they didn't have Artie, he was in Japan, 221 00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:02,680 Speaker 8: and they did okay, a pretty good. 222 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:03,559 Speaker 3: Cohort of loose forward. 223 00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:06,520 Speaker 8: So while I'd always want Artie Savia in my team, 224 00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:08,800 Speaker 8: and I'm sure the Hurricanes do, this isn't the worst 225 00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 8: possible outcome. 226 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 5: Jack. 227 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 8: At least he's not going to the Blues. 228 00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:12,960 Speaker 3: This is true. I think you speak for all of 229 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,160 Speaker 3: us there, don't you. Although that being said that there 230 00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:17,199 Speaker 3: is a difference between Arti playing and Japan and Arti 231 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 3: playing from Wina Pacifica, because yep, he won't be in 232 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:21,640 Speaker 3: the Hurricanes, but he will now be playing against them, 233 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:23,959 Speaker 3: which could be tricky, especially when he's on those barn 234 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,040 Speaker 3: storming runs. Worry is Raiders tonight? 235 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:28,719 Speaker 8: Yeah not it must win, but are very nice to win. 236 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:31,080 Speaker 8: I would love to see them when the time's running out. 237 00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:33,959 Speaker 8: It's not mathematical in terms of conversation yet, but yeah, 238 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 8: they'd want to win in Canberra against the Raiders to 239 00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 8: night Jack. 240 00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:40,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, they certainly would. It is getting dangerously close 241 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:44,280 Speaker 3: to those mathematical equations. All of us becomes Pythagoras at 242 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:46,200 Speaker 3: this time of the year, don't we. Thank you very 243 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:49,120 Speaker 3: much to Jason.

We'll go out for 253 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:18,480 Speaker 3: breakfast or for brunch. It's a bit cheaper, but even 254 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 3: that is hardly manageable these days. Sixty five bucks for 255 00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:24,960 Speaker 3: two breakfasts and two coffees, Jack, So many are writing 256 00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:27,199 Speaker 3: the cost of living crisis right now. Seven hundred and 257 00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:29,960 Speaker 3: fifty mils of olive oil was sixteen bucks a month 258 00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:33,680 Speaker 3: ago at the supermarket, twenty five dollars today. Really, says Mark, 259 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:38,079 Speaker 3: We're such suckers. Twenty five bucks for olive oil. Really, 260 00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:44,000 Speaker 3: I mean that does seem very expensive. We had work 261 00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 3: drinks recently for staff with a few pizzas. Went to 262 00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:49,000 Speaker 3: a restaurant. That bill was seven hundred bucks. Oh, we 263 00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:50,720 Speaker 3: could have bought all of this for one hundred dollars 264 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:52,520 Speaker 3: and had them in the boardroom. Mark up for some 265 00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:55,840 Speaker 3: of these bars and restaurants is outrageous. Send us a 266 00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:58,080 Speaker 3: text if you like.

Jack at news Talks, he'd be dot NZ. 268 00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:04,200 Speaker 3: One of the interesting things about the last day of 269 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:08,640 Speaker 3: the Republican National Convention today were the speakers and performers 270 00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:13,600 Speaker 3: who spoke before Donald Trump. So he was the pista 271 00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:16,960 Speaker 3: resistance for the whole convention, as is pretty standard. But 272 00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:20,760 Speaker 3: before he appeared, you had Hulk Hogan, as in, you know, 273 00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:24,440 Speaker 3: the former wrestler, come out on stage. And that was 274 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:26,800 Speaker 3: quite an appearance, to be perfectly honest. He came out 275 00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:31,160 Speaker 3: on stage and he ripped his shirt off and underneath 276 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:36,400 Speaker 3: his shirt he had a singlet saying Trump Vance twenty 277 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:39,840 Speaker 3: twenty four. So that was a moment, not the kind 278 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:42,400 Speaker 3: of thing you see at political events in New Zealand. 279 00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:46,680 Speaker 3: Necessarily after he came out on stage. Kid Rock came 280 00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:48,600 Speaker 3: out on stage and did a performance. I don't think 281 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:51,280 Speaker 3: anyone in the audience really knew what to do. It 282 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:53,280 Speaker 3: was like it was kind of one of those weird things. 283 00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 3: Do you clap along, do you dance? Do you even 284 00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:57,800 Speaker 3: know Kid Rock's music? But anyway, Kid Rock was performing, 285 00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:04,080 Speaker 3: and then this was really The person who ultimately introduced 286 00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:08,280 Speaker 3: Donald Trump to the convention was Danna White, who is 287 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 3: the head of UFC, very very well known businessman in 288 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:16,440 Speaker 3: the US. But yeah, someone who I suppose connects with 289 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:20,520 Speaker 3: a big slab of potentially working class male voters in 290 00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 3: the US. I think Darcy Waldgrave was the first person 291 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:27,440 Speaker 3: to throw out the term test oster zone. But if 292 00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 3: Hulk Hogan, Kid Rock and then the head of UFC 293 00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 3: introducing you at a political rally, isn't a test asters 294 00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:36,840 Speaker 3: owned and I don't know what is. We're in Milwaukee 295 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:39,080 Speaker 3: very shortly.

But let me tell your former US 317 00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:48,600 Speaker 3: President Donald Trump had some hard acts to follow at 318 00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:51,760 Speaker 3: the Republican National Convention today. The lineup of guests at 319 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 3: the convention included UFC boss Dana White and rap rock 320 00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 3: musician Kid Rock.

Hi, Dan, 349 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:46,520 Speaker 3: talk us through Donald Trump's speech at the Republican National Convention. 350 00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:51,159 Speaker 11: You know, Jack, I think it felt more like a 351 00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:55,359 Speaker 11: three ring circus than it did a convention between as 352 00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:58,920 Speaker 11: you mentioned Kid Rock Hulk Hogan ripping off his shirt 353 00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:03,000 Speaker 11: just like he used to do for the WWE. You know, 354 00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:05,159 Speaker 11: Trump saying he was going to bring the nation together, 355 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:09,480 Speaker 11: but then he started ripping Nancy Pelosi and as you 356 00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:15,280 Speaker 11: heard their former recurrent president Biden right now, he claimed that, 357 00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:18,480 Speaker 11: you know, North Korean leader Kim Jong un might miss 358 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:21,119 Speaker 11: some Democrats cheated the election, And it just kind of 359 00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:23,760 Speaker 11: went on and on and on. In fact, it was 360 00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:26,800 Speaker 11: the longest speech ever given. It ran ninety minutes. 361 00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:30,720 Speaker 3: Huh, Yeah, that's that's something I mean from my perspective, 362 00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:32,800 Speaker 3: I was watching it down. Some of it was really compelling. 363 00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:37,080 Speaker 3: Him talking about surviving that assassination attempt was amazing. They 364 00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:40,600 Speaker 3: just he just really steadily talked through his experience and 365 00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:43,240 Speaker 3: it was something to behold. There were some other like 366 00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 3: classic trumpisms. There was one at one point where he 367 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:50,880 Speaker 3: went off script quite clearly. He was talking about illegal immigration, 368 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,680 Speaker 3: and he asked the audience if they've seen the Silence 369 00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:56,639 Speaker 3: of the Lambs, and then he said, well, you know 370 00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:59,920 Speaker 3: the late great Hannibal Lector, you know that's who this is. 371 00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:03,520 Speaker 3: Was like, oh, okay, that's that's pretty out the end. 372 00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:05,560 Speaker 3: So how do you think his his speech is going 373 00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:06,320 Speaker 3: to be received? 374 00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:11,040 Speaker 11: I I you know, his his handlers, if you can 375 00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:13,760 Speaker 11: say that anybody handles. Donald Trump had said he wasn't 376 00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:16,680 Speaker 11: going to go off script, but as you mentioned, he 377 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:20,240 Speaker 11: did a number of times. There were moments there. I 378 00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:22,159 Speaker 11: mean there, you know, we had the fire jacket and 379 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:23,680 Speaker 11: the helmet of the man that was killed during the 380 00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:26,480 Speaker 11: assassination attempt on stage when he walked out, you know, 381 00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:29,240 Speaker 11: to accept the nomination, and you know, he kissed the 382 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:30,840 Speaker 11: helmet there and then he announced it more than six 383 00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:33,480 Speaker 11: six million dollars had been raised for the victims of 384 00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:38,200 Speaker 11: the of of that, which was nice. His wife, Milania Trump, 385 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:40,480 Speaker 11: who's only been seen or made I think two public 386 00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:43,119 Speaker 11: appearances on his behalf, made a little bit of a 387 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:46,480 Speaker 11: dramatic entrance. Before she spoke, the rest of the family 388 00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:48,119 Speaker 11: came in, and then there was this well is she 389 00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:49,600 Speaker 11: going to be there or is she not going to 390 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:49,920 Speaker 11: be there? 391 00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:50,639 Speaker 1: Will she? 392 00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:52,760 Speaker 3: Won't she? And she did show up, and. 393 00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:55,679 Speaker 12: You know, you're you're right. 394 00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 11: I think I think a lot of people are going 395 00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 11: to remember it. But then he said this was going 396 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:01,440 Speaker 11: to be the only time that he talks about this 397 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:04,159 Speaker 11: attempted assassination because he said it's too painful. But at 398 00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:06,720 Speaker 11: the same time, while he's doing that, you see all 399 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:09,720 Speaker 11: these pictures behind him, and I don't know, it was 400 00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:11,919 Speaker 11: just an oxymoron at times. 401 00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:14,320 Speaker 3: You know, it just was very confusing. 402 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:16,600 Speaker 1: But he's a showman and that's what it was. 403 00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:19,600 Speaker 3: It was a big show. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's exactly right. 404 00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:23,240 Speaker 3: And Trump is the ultimate oxymoron at times. Right in 405 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:25,960 Speaker 3: to the other side of the house, Nancy Pelosi is 406 00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:28,760 Speaker 3: going around telling people she thinks Joe Biden can be 407 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:33,680 Speaker 3: persuaded and fairly soon to step aside as the Democrats nominee. 408 00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:36,960 Speaker 11: I if I was a betting man, and I would 409 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:38,840 Speaker 11: not have said this maybe a week ago, but I 410 00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 11: think this weekend we may end up hearing something. 411 00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:42,159 Speaker 9: You're right. 412 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:46,200 Speaker 11: Nancy Pelosi is doing this. Multiple sources have said that 413 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:50,440 Speaker 11: that Barack Obama has been bombarded by some of the 414 00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:53,280 Speaker 11: top Democrats right now and is trying to find a 415 00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:58,080 Speaker 11: way to call on Biden to drop out. The campaign. 416 00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:00,600 Speaker 11: Aids are just doing what they're doing right now. But 417 00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:02,440 Speaker 11: I think a lot of people in Washington, d C. 418 00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:04,560 Speaker 11: And a lot of Democrats right now publicly are just 419 00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:08,199 Speaker 11: seeing the walls closing in and it's time for him 420 00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:09,000 Speaker 11: to call it a day. 421 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:11,720 Speaker 3: And the polls show that he's not going to beat Trump. 422 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:14,920 Speaker 11: The attack on you know, former President Trump that we 423 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:17,960 Speaker 11: had last weekend has only rallied his base, and then 424 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:20,639 Speaker 11: Biden gets COVID right now. I mean, this is just 425 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:24,520 Speaker 11: it doesn't seem like anything Biden does is going to 426 00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:28,320 Speaker 11: advance him down the road. So that leaves you with, Okay, 427 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:31,040 Speaker 11: who's next, Kamala Harris, I guess is going to step up? 428 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:34,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I guess we'll see. I don't know. I'm 429 00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:36,240 Speaker 3: with you. I reckon this is the weekend. I reckon 430 00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:38,600 Speaker 3: by Tuesday, New Zealand time. I have nothing to base 431 00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:41,680 Speaker 3: that except that he's having a bit of time to reflect, 432 00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:43,840 Speaker 3: which might be a good thing in Joe Biden's case, 433 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:47,680 Speaker 3: and finally Dan, bud Light was once America's favorite beer, 434 00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:50,679 Speaker 3: but it is now firmly falling out of favor. 435 00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:55,200 Speaker 11: It is Modello out of Mexico is at the top. 436 00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:57,399 Speaker 11: And just you know, a year ago, a little more 437 00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:59,879 Speaker 11: than a year ago, I mean, bud had ten percent 438 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:02,440 Speaker 11: maybe a little bit more of beer sales here in 439 00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 11: the US. 440 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:03,879 Speaker 13: I mean, it was huge. 441 00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:06,960 Speaker 11: And then they one of the marketing department decided to 442 00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:10,600 Speaker 11: hire this transgender social media influencer who has you know, 443 00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:14,200 Speaker 11: a gazillion followers across TikTok and Instagram as part of 444 00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:17,440 Speaker 11: a brand for March Madness. Well, that didn't go over 445 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:21,840 Speaker 11: with the conservatives in this country, and they launched a 446 00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:25,159 Speaker 11: nationwide boycott of the brand, and that resulted in sales 447 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:28,960 Speaker 11: of bud Light tanking, and people thought, well, okay, everybody's 448 00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:31,680 Speaker 11: got a short memory span. This brand's been around for generations. 449 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:33,840 Speaker 11: Right now it's going to come back. It has not, 450 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:36,720 Speaker 11: so it slips number two, and then in the last 451 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:39,320 Speaker 11: three months it's now slipped down to number three right now, 452 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:41,879 Speaker 11: and this is costing them tens, if not hundreds of 453 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:44,119 Speaker 11: millions of dollars just because somebody came up with this 454 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:46,800 Speaker 11: idea of let's go with somebody that's on TikTok that 455 00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:49,320 Speaker 11: has nothing to do with our brand or the people 456 00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:50,480 Speaker 11: that consume our brand. 457 00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:53,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's a healthy and warning game. Thank 458 00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:55,359 Speaker 3: you so much, Dan, appreciate it as EVA. That is 459 00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:58,879 Speaker 3: US correspondent Dan Mitchison. Thank you for your feedback. Daif 460 00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:00,960 Speaker 3: has took me a note. Jack, Are you kidding? I've 461 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:02,920 Speaker 3: always thought you to be a highly intelligent man, But 462 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:06,160 Speaker 3: you found that performance compelling. I found the bit where 463 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:09,720 Speaker 3: Donald Trump was talking about the attempted assassination usterly compelling. 464 00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:13,400 Speaker 3: Not the rest of the speech necessarily. I wasn't there 465 00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:15,359 Speaker 3: hanging on as every word for ninety minutes, But that 466 00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:19,520 Speaker 3: bit where he was talking about surviving the attempted assassination, yep, 467 00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:21,760 Speaker 3: I found it totally compelling. It well, you know, he 468 00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 3: talked us through the whole thing. He was explaining how 469 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:25,960 Speaker 3: he was speaking on stage. He turned his head to 470 00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:28,439 Speaker 3: the right to refer to a chart that he had 471 00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:33,760 Speaker 3: prepared with data on illegal immigration, and then he described 472 00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:36,119 Speaker 3: how he lay on the ground on stage and had 473 00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:38,320 Speaker 3: all the Secret Service agents on top of him. And that, 474 00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:40,440 Speaker 3: of course is when he made that extraordinary decision that 475 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:42,680 Speaker 3: when he was going to stand back up again, he 476 00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:44,760 Speaker 3: had to send a signal to the crowd. 477 00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:47,320 Speaker 7: So this is what he said, And there was great, 478 00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:49,719 Speaker 7: great sorrow. I could see that on their faces as 479 00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:53,040 Speaker 7: I looked out. They didn't know I was looking out. 480 00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:56,080 Speaker 7: They thought it was over, but I could see it. 481 00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 7: I wanted to do something to let him. 482 00:24:59,280 --> 00:24:59,920 Speaker 9: Know I was okay. 483 00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:04,000 Speaker 7: I raised my right arm, looked at the thousands and 484 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:12,040 Speaker 7: thousands of people that were breathlessly waiting, and started shouting fight, fight, fight, 485 00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:29,359 Speaker 7: thank you. Once my clenched first went up and it 486 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:33,680 Speaker 7: was high into the air. You've all seen that, the 487 00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:38,680 Speaker 7: crowd realized I was okay and roared with pride for 488 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 7: our country like no crowd I have ever heard before. 489 00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:44,000 Speaker 10: Yeah. 490 00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:46,480 Speaker 3: That was Donald Trump explaining what happened to him as 491 00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:49,800 Speaker 3: part of his presentation at the Republican National Convention. We'll 492 00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:51,680 Speaker 3: play some more of that after five o'clock this evening. 493 00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:55,080 Speaker 3: Thank you so much for your feedback. So one Auckland restaurateur, 494 00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:58,360 Speaker 3: the co owner of Vivaci, has issued a public leader 495 00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:01,960 Speaker 3: in the Herald today asking people and in particular businesses 496 00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:04,040 Speaker 3: to get out their big businesses to get out there 497 00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:06,840 Speaker 3: and try and support hospitality in any way they can. 498 00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:09,720 Speaker 3: At the moment, so many hospitality businesses doing it tough 499 00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:12,760 Speaker 3: at the moment. And yeah, heaps of texts have come in. Ben, 500 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:15,359 Speaker 3: says Jack. I've got to agree, the price of dining 501 00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:17,399 Speaker 3: out is just ridiculous at the moment.

There has been a high 516 00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:55,560 Speaker 3: level defection at Farmac, So tell us who's gone and 517 00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:56,600 Speaker 3: why did he leave? 518 00:26:57,160 --> 00:27:00,800 Speaker 14: Indeed, it is doctor Anthony Jordan and he is leaving 519 00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:03,520 Speaker 14: farmac's board. He was meant to actually leave in December 520 00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:06,320 Speaker 14: this year, but there was after news broke Today I 521 00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:09,280 Speaker 14: got a statement from farmac's chair Paul Bennett, who said 522 00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:12,440 Speaker 14: that although his term was meant to expire in December, 523 00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:15,600 Speaker 14: he's leaving effective immediately. And so this comes just a 524 00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:19,600 Speaker 14: couple of days after FARMAC was was directed to remove 525 00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 14: its focus of the Treaty of White Tonguey in terms 526 00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:24,399 Speaker 14: of its directorships on the board. So I spoke with 527 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:28,159 Speaker 14: David Seymour soon after the news came out about what 528 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:31,240 Speaker 14: actually went down, and he didn't actually seem all that 529 00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:34,120 Speaker 14: worried that doctor Jordan was leaving. 530 00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:34,640 Speaker 6: Have a listen. 531 00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:37,760 Speaker 5: I think if we've got somebody who felt that embedding 532 00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:41,520 Speaker 5: the treaty was a more important priority than improving the 533 00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:45,360 Speaker 5: access to medicines for all New Zealanders, were probably made 534 00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:48,159 Speaker 5: the right decision by causing him to move on. 535 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:50,800 Speaker 14: So he's not going to lose much sleepover this one. 536 00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:52,800 Speaker 14: In fact, he told me that he actually learned about 537 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:55,639 Speaker 14: this a few days ago, so before the decision was 538 00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:58,520 Speaker 14: made public, and Seymour actually had a message for anybody 539 00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:00,760 Speaker 14: else on the board who had a similar way of 540 00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:02,159 Speaker 14: thinking to doctor Jordan. 541 00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:04,120 Speaker 5: And if anyone that doesn't want to get on board 542 00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:07,200 Speaker 5: with that direction, then actually I think they would be 543 00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:11,840 Speaker 5: making the right choice by following Dr Jordan out the door. 544 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:14,200 Speaker 14: I think he So, he didn't actually say that there'd 545 00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 14: been anybody else that had expressed this, but he's made 546 00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:19,240 Speaker 14: his opinions on this pretty clear. And it's not like 547 00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:22,119 Speaker 14: I asked him, you know, based on what had happened, 548 00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:24,120 Speaker 14: did this give you pause for thought as to whether 549 00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:26,200 Speaker 14: this was a good idea? And he was digging in 550 00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:28,840 Speaker 14: his heels and saying it absolutely is. So don't expect 551 00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:31,679 Speaker 14: Seymour to be losing too much sleep or being too 552 00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:32,800 Speaker 14: worried about this one. 553 00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:35,399 Speaker 3: Speaking of David Seymour, he has broken with tradition of 554 00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:37,920 Speaker 3: sorts and back to horse and the US presidential race. 555 00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:41,080 Speaker 14: Yes, this was an interesting one because I was talking 556 00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:43,760 Speaker 14: to him while I was watching old Donald Trump deliver 557 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:46,640 Speaker 14: his speech this afternoon, and I just thought i'd give 558 00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:48,680 Speaker 14: a bit of a punt as to who he thought, 559 00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:50,760 Speaker 14: if he would like Trump or if you'd like Biden, 560 00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:53,920 Speaker 14: if it wasn't Biden, who he would like instead. So 561 00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:56,920 Speaker 14: have a listen and your his answer will surprise you. 562 00:28:57,040 --> 00:28:57,680 Speaker 6: I guarantee it. 563 00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:02,400 Speaker 14: I'm watching the Republican Congress Congress their national conference right now. 564 00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:04,360 Speaker 14: If you got a Bob each way in terms of 565 00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:07,120 Speaker 14: Biden or if it is Biden or Trump, who would 566 00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:09,800 Speaker 14: you prefer Michelle Obama? 567 00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:11,640 Speaker 6: Why is that? 568 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:14,120 Speaker 5: Well in the head to hear, she's the only one 569 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:14,840 Speaker 5: that can win. 570 00:29:15,320 --> 00:29:17,000 Speaker 6: Right And do you think that's likely that she's going 571 00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:17,960 Speaker 6: to take over from Biden? 572 00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:21,280 Speaker 5: Well, if you were her and you're sitting there saying 573 00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:23,080 Speaker 5: there's one hundred million people that want to beat this 574 00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:26,240 Speaker 5: guy and I'm the only one that can, would. 575 00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:26,320 Speaker 1: You do it? 576 00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:27,240 Speaker 6: So there it is. 577 00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:31,120 Speaker 14: David Seymour wants Michelle Obama to take over and be 578 00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:35,440 Speaker 14: a Biden Biden, be a Michelle Obama versus Donald Trump race. 579 00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:37,200 Speaker 14: I think it would be very interesting there. 580 00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:40,880 Speaker 3: It'll be all the encouragement I'm sure she needs.

Now, 590 00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:03,160 Speaker 14: I'd like you to listen to what Prime Minister Chris 591 00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:06,680 Speaker 14: Luxon said while he was chairing the Indoor Pacific four 592 00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:08,440 Speaker 14: Forum in NATO last week. 593 00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:12,480 Speaker 15: Cavialism, the intensifying military relationship we see between Russia and 594 00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:15,840 Speaker 15: the DPRK and China's role in supporting the rebuilding of 595 00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:20,760 Speaker 15: Russia's industrial base demonstrates the indivisibility of security issues between 596 00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:22,200 Speaker 15: Europe and our part of the world. 597 00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:24,240 Speaker 14: So it's the line he says about China's role in 598 00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:27,960 Speaker 14: supporting the rebuilding of Russia's industrial base. Now listen to 599 00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:30,520 Speaker 14: what Peters had to say in his speech today. 600 00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:34,400 Speaker 16: We're also concerned by North Koreas and those others, either 601 00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:38,760 Speaker 16: directly or through the export of dual use technologies, supplying 602 00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:42,560 Speaker 16: military related technologies to Russia or supporting its war industries 603 00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:45,080 Speaker 16: to fuel its illegal invasion of Ukraine. 604 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:47,160 Speaker 14: So despite the fact that talking about the same thing, 605 00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:51,240 Speaker 14: he dropped the reference to China instead opting for those 606 00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:53,960 Speaker 14: others not China. So it makes you wonder what's happened 607 00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:56,880 Speaker 14: behind the scenes to take China out of the equation 608 00:30:57,040 --> 00:30:58,680 Speaker 14: in such a pivotal speech. 609 00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:01,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, that is intrigue.

It can only 676 00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:20,920 Speaker 7: be a bullet, and moved my right hand to my 677 00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:25,080 Speaker 7: ear brought it down. My hand was covered with blood. 678 00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:29,440 Speaker 3: At times, Donald Trump seemed almost philosophical. 679 00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:32,920 Speaker 7: I'm not supposed to be here tonight, not supposed to 680 00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:33,319 Speaker 7: be here. 681 00:34:44,040 --> 00:34:46,239 Speaker 3: At the end of his speech, he promised to be 682 00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:47,359 Speaker 3: a president for all. 683 00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:53,400 Speaker 7: I am running to be president for all of America, 684 00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:57,719 Speaker 7: not half of America, because there is no victory in 685 00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:00,880 Speaker 7: winning for half other amer. 686 00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:04,319 Speaker 3: One News US correspondent Logan Church to spend the week 687 00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:07,440 Speaker 3: at the Republican National Convention and is with us this evening, 688 00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:09,840 Speaker 3: Calder Logan, what did you make of Donald Trump's speech? 689 00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:13,840 Speaker 20: Well, good evening, Jack. Well, it was certainly a record 690 00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:16,400 Speaker 20: sesting speech, if anything, just because of how long the 691 00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:19,600 Speaker 20: thing was. It went over well over an hour, and 692 00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:22,040 Speaker 20: from my very great research since it appeared to be 693 00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:25,040 Speaker 20: one of the longest acceptance speeches of a party candidate 694 00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:28,200 Speaker 20: at one of these conventions. Well, look, Donald Trump promised 695 00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:31,600 Speaker 20: and this would be a speechise promoting unity in a 696 00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:35,319 Speaker 20: divided America. It very much started that way. As you said, 697 00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:38,160 Speaker 20: and as you heard from Donald Trump himself. He started 698 00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:42,319 Speaker 20: speaking about his experience during the shooting, describing how there 699 00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:44,840 Speaker 20: were bullets flying towards him. There was a round of 700 00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:48,480 Speaker 20: applause as he described the quote brave Secret Service agents 701 00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:52,200 Speaker 20: rushing onto the stage, finishing with that quite poignant quote, 702 00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:54,920 Speaker 20: I'm not supposed to be here tonight. But then it 703 00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:57,640 Speaker 20: very quickly descended into what we would typically see and 704 00:35:57,760 --> 00:36:00,719 Speaker 20: hear from Donald Trump, which was a loss of very 705 00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:05,520 Speaker 20: fiery rhetoric. He accused the Democrats of weaponizing democracy, saying 706 00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:08,799 Speaker 20: they were the ones that had been trying to steal 707 00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:11,320 Speaker 20: the election, which is somewhat ironic considering those are some 708 00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:14,560 Speaker 20: of the charges that Donald Trump himself faces. It was 709 00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:17,520 Speaker 20: a speech though overall, despite how long it was, that 710 00:36:17,640 --> 00:36:20,680 Speaker 20: certially riled up the Republican base. The atmosphere in that 711 00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:24,680 Speaker 20: room was electric. However, this won't be an election decided 712 00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:27,839 Speaker 20: by the Republican base or the Democrat base for that master. 713 00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:30,080 Speaker 20: It's going to be decided by the people in the middle. 714 00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:32,960 Speaker 20: Those are undecided as to which way they're going to 715 00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:38,399 Speaker 20: vote come November, and it is ours as to whether 716 00:36:38,520 --> 00:36:41,920 Speaker 20: this is going to be the speech that will draw 717 00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:44,520 Speaker 20: them to Donald Trump because in many ways we got 718 00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:47,239 Speaker 20: a best of new Donald Trump, but we also got 719 00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:49,680 Speaker 20: a little bit of what we've always seen of Donald Trump. 720 00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:51,759 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I think that's totally fair. It took us 721 00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:53,719 Speaker 3: through the way he actually told the story about the 722 00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:57,520 Speaker 3: assassination attempt. What was your view, Logan, Did he seem 723 00:36:57,640 --> 00:37:01,080 Speaker 3: like he had kind of gone gone over the shock 724 00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:01,440 Speaker 3: of it all? 725 00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:04,719 Speaker 20: Yet I don't think you could ever get over the 726 00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:07,160 Speaker 20: shock of having bullets shot at you, especially in a 727 00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:11,120 Speaker 20: situation like that. In many ways, he seems borderline emotional 728 00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:13,000 Speaker 20: talking about some of this, So I think it's also 729 00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:16,320 Speaker 20: important to know. And you weren't seen this if you 730 00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:19,839 Speaker 20: were just listening, But as Donald Trump spoke about his experience, 731 00:37:20,560 --> 00:37:23,400 Speaker 20: the production team put up giant photos of many of 732 00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:25,560 Speaker 20: those moments you would have seen over the recent days. 733 00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:29,239 Speaker 20: Some of the incredible photographs taken by press photographers who 734 00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:31,560 Speaker 20: were there covering the rally just like any other rally. 735 00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:36,600 Speaker 20: One now quite famous picture show Donald Trump speaking with 736 00:37:36,760 --> 00:37:39,640 Speaker 20: the bullets, the blur of the bullet whizzing through the air, 737 00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:42,840 Speaker 20: and that was put up on the big screens behind 738 00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 20: Donald Trump as he describes that experience and It was 739 00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:50,560 Speaker 20: quite surreal actually watching a leading presidential candidate and former 740 00:37:50,680 --> 00:37:55,000 Speaker 20: president speak quite candidly about the experience of actually being 741 00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:58,040 Speaker 20: shots and almost losing his life. It's something we've never 742 00:37:58,120 --> 00:37:58,720 Speaker 20: seen before. 743 00:37:58,960 --> 00:37:59,240 Speaker 1: Really. 744 00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:01,480 Speaker 20: There are quite an incredible scenes. 745 00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:03,759 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it was remarkable. Thank you so much, Logan. 746 00:38:03,840 --> 00:38:06,520 Speaker 3: That is one new US correspondent, Logan Church. Because the 747 00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:08,160 Speaker 3: question now is going to be whether or not Joe 748 00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:10,200 Speaker 3: Biden last the weekend. A lot of the reports out 749 00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:13,640 Speaker 3: of the US today, alongside the Republican National Convention, suggests 750 00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:17,239 Speaker 3: that Joe Biden is finally open to potentially standing down. 751 00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:21,360 Speaker 3: It's eleven past five, Jack t and if you are 752 00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:24,920 Speaker 3: listening from Todunger, you have until midday tomorrow to get 753 00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:27,120 Speaker 3: your vote in from the local body election. Yes, you 754 00:38:27,160 --> 00:38:29,799 Speaker 3: could say that we're covering the two most keenly anticipated 755 00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:32,680 Speaker 3: elections in the world right now, the US and November 756 00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:35,560 Speaker 3: and Todunger this weekend. Chances are, though, if you are 757 00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:38,560 Speaker 3: listening from Todunger, you haven't voted yet because turnout was 758 00:38:38,600 --> 00:38:43,000 Speaker 3: sitting at about twenty three percent on Wednesday. This election, 759 00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:44,680 Speaker 3: of course, is going to decide who will be on 760 00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:48,719 Speaker 3: Todung's first democratically elected council since the previous council was 761 00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:52,440 Speaker 3: disbanded and replaced by commissioners. Matt Cawley is chief executive 762 00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:55,080 Speaker 3: of the Todunger Business Chamber and is with us this evening. 763 00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:58,520 Speaker 3: Good evening, Jordan Jack, why do you reckon? Turnout is 764 00:38:58,640 --> 00:38:59,160 Speaker 3: so poor? 765 00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:04,239 Speaker 12: A number of things and Mike Hoskin's dead on right 766 00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:06,520 Speaker 12: this morning when he said we won't get over thirty 767 00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:10,839 Speaker 12: percent and local government needs a look at because it's 768 00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:13,880 Speaker 12: not working at the moment. But we've got new wards 769 00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:18,120 Speaker 12: in place. There's a bit of fatigue the postal services 770 00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:20,880 Speaker 12: and working, so they tried a new initiative with putting 771 00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:24,600 Speaker 12: bins and shopping centers. The candidates left it quite late. 772 00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:27,440 Speaker 12: There's a bit of apathy and also a bit of fatigue, 773 00:39:27,520 --> 00:39:29,879 Speaker 12: so there's a hot mix of issues there. 774 00:39:30,040 --> 00:39:33,640 Speaker 3: What confidence do you have that the newly elected council 775 00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:37,760 Speaker 3: will avoid the pitfalls that tore the last council apart. 776 00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:42,840 Speaker 12: It really depends on how well they get together. A 777 00:39:42,920 --> 00:39:46,799 Speaker 12: good indication is whether they can have their well good 778 00:39:46,840 --> 00:39:49,960 Speaker 12: discussions in the council meeting room, but they can sit 779 00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:52,680 Speaker 12: down and enjoy a working lunch in the meeting room, 780 00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:56,080 Speaker 12: in their lunch room, breakout room in between meetings. If 781 00:39:56,160 --> 00:39:59,600 Speaker 12: that culture and communication isn't there, it will fall through. 782 00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:02,560 Speaker 3: And what are the major issues that the new council 783 00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:03,440 Speaker 3: will be dealing with? 784 00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:07,320 Speaker 12: Do you think they've got a big bow wave of 785 00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:10,880 Speaker 12: projects ahead of them. We don't need people with imaginations. 786 00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:14,600 Speaker 12: We just need people with solutions for financing and funding 787 00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:19,440 Speaker 12: and prioritizing and obviously engaging with those communities. But transport, housing, 788 00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:24,040 Speaker 12: regulatory burdens and CBD projects, Yeah, the main ones. 789 00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:27,000 Speaker 3: How do most people that you've spoken to in totaling 790 00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:30,239 Speaker 3: I feel about the job that Antollie and the other commissions. 791 00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:35,960 Speaker 12: Did look predominantly our audience as we've surveyed as roughly 792 00:40:36,040 --> 00:40:39,440 Speaker 12: between sixty and seventy percent, have been quite supportive of 793 00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:43,320 Speaker 12: where their direction is going. I think they're quite open 794 00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:47,640 Speaker 12: to new candidates, for getting a new pair of eyes 795 00:40:47,719 --> 00:40:50,040 Speaker 12: to look over the numbers and peer review some of 796 00:40:50,080 --> 00:40:53,680 Speaker 12: their work. But overall, Yeah, the commissioners have done okay, 797 00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:55,920 Speaker 12: and maybe a bit of balance in the future between 798 00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:58,440 Speaker 12: skills and elected officials is the way to go. 799 00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:00,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's interesting. Who do you think is going to 800 00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:01,600 Speaker 3: be the next mayor? 801 00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:07,759 Speaker 12: Who knows. I can tell you tomorrow afternoon, but I'd 802 00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:10,560 Speaker 12: say there's our members shows sort of their top four 803 00:41:10,640 --> 00:41:14,440 Speaker 12: where Mahe, Greg Brown, nurs Ria and Tina Salisbury. So 804 00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:15,919 Speaker 12: it'll probably be one of those. 805 00:41:16,120 --> 00:41:19,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, and it's STV of course a so yeah, things 806 00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:21,520 Speaker 3: could get interesting once you have all of those votes 807 00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:22,040 Speaker 3: talied up. 808 00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:25,120 Speaker 12: Yeah, split votes and other things, but at least with 809 00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:29,240 Speaker 12: STV that avoids split voting, that it really gives priority. 810 00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:31,520 Speaker 12: So I think it'll be interesting in the wide and mix. 811 00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:33,120 Speaker 1: The mayor is only one. 812 00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:35,800 Speaker 12: Vote and we've got a new ward system, so I 813 00:41:35,880 --> 00:41:38,520 Speaker 12: think that'll be interesting with how those ward councilors go. 814 00:41:38,680 --> 00:41:41,200 Speaker 12: Are there only champion for the award or are they 815 00:41:41,440 --> 00:41:43,640 Speaker 12: keen to make big decisions across the whole city. 816 00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:46,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, very good, Thanks Matt. Good luck for the next 817 00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:48,520 Speaker 3: twenty four hours or so. That is the chief executive 818 00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:51,400 Speaker 3: of Todunger's Business Chamber, Matt Cowley. If you are in 819 00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:54,800 Speaker 3: in Todung go vote.

Quarterbars five on Newstalk ZB. 821 00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:04,360 Speaker 1: Wheels on the bus go round and bound, round and bound, 822 00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:05,720 Speaker 1: round and bound. 823 00:42:05,800 --> 00:42:08,560 Speaker 3: The wheels on the bus go round and I just 824 00:42:08,960 --> 00:42:11,719 Speaker 3: want you to be one hundred percent confident in your 825 00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:15,120 Speaker 3: own mind. It was not me who called for this music. 826 00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:18,000 Speaker 3: It was Ants this evening. So in forty eight hours, 827 00:42:18,040 --> 00:42:20,879 Speaker 3: when the song is still sucking your head, you can't 828 00:42:20,920 --> 00:42:24,080 Speaker 3: sleep at night. It's haunting your dreams. Do not blame me, 829 00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:29,040 Speaker 3: blame ANTS. Horizons Regional Council wants to know if you 830 00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:31,640 Speaker 3: want to listen to some bangers while you are riding 831 00:42:31,880 --> 00:42:34,160 Speaker 3: the bus. I think we can all agree that is 832 00:42:34,360 --> 00:42:37,600 Speaker 3: not a banger. The Council, however, says that some connect 833 00:42:37,680 --> 00:42:40,280 Speaker 3: bus drivers want to play music on the on board speakers, 834 00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:42,080 Speaker 3: but they're not sure if this is going to annoy 835 00:42:42,120 --> 00:42:44,640 Speaker 3: the passengers. So if you're in Parveston North, in huang 836 00:42:44,760 --> 00:42:47,160 Speaker 3: Nui or in Fielding, you can tell the council through 837 00:42:47,200 --> 00:42:49,719 Speaker 3: a survey whether you're up for some sick tunes on 838 00:42:49,880 --> 00:42:53,920 Speaker 3: your bus ride.

So so other buses actually set up to 863 00:43:56,640 --> 00:43:57,160 Speaker 3: play music? 864 00:43:58,360 --> 00:44:03,560 Speaker 21: Yeah, so all that buses can and some currently bus 865 00:44:03,640 --> 00:44:05,680 Speaker 21: drivers play at the front. We'll play it throughout the 866 00:44:05,719 --> 00:44:09,520 Speaker 21: bus and so they're all they're all capable. It's more 867 00:44:09,680 --> 00:44:11,719 Speaker 21: just how we want to do this going forward. 868 00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:15,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, have people been complaining about bus drivers playing music? 869 00:44:15,120 --> 00:44:18,480 Speaker 21: So far, not so much complaining. So what this has 870 00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:20,879 Speaker 21: really come about? So recently a lot of our buses 871 00:44:20,920 --> 00:44:23,880 Speaker 21: of Thomas North and Moves have been electric and so 872 00:44:24,280 --> 00:44:27,160 Speaker 21: great to have these these nice, new comfortable buses for 873 00:44:27,320 --> 00:44:30,440 Speaker 21: excretion people. Hey, actually they're really quiet. Yeah, sort of 874 00:44:30,520 --> 00:44:33,120 Speaker 21: a bit a bit like sort of sending a silent 875 00:44:33,200 --> 00:44:36,359 Speaker 21: elevator with you know, it doesn't know people who are 876 00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:39,120 Speaker 21: not really sure who they are, and that's sort of feeling. 877 00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:42,719 Speaker 21: So that's that's been more the driver behind us rather 878 00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:45,640 Speaker 21: than complaint to around what music has been being played. 879 00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:50,440 Speaker 21: But yeah, just some more thinking around well how should 880 00:44:50,440 --> 00:44:50,920 Speaker 21: we approach this? 881 00:44:51,040 --> 00:44:52,680 Speaker 3: So I'm just going to readly for one the three 882 00:44:52,760 --> 00:44:54,959 Speaker 3: questions you're asking in the survey. Number one, do people 883 00:44:55,040 --> 00:44:57,000 Speaker 3: mind music being played on the bus? Number two? If 884 00:44:57,080 --> 00:45:00,000 Speaker 3: music has played, what genres, playlist radio stations should be played? 885 00:45:00,160 --> 00:45:02,560 Speaker 3: Number three? Should there be different rules for music at 886 00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:04,840 Speaker 3: different times of the day and or year. But the 887 00:45:04,880 --> 00:45:07,360 Speaker 3: thing is on the bus these days, most people we headphones, 888 00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:07,799 Speaker 3: don't they. 889 00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:09,359 Speaker 9: That was true. 890 00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:11,080 Speaker 21: You get on the bus and most people are buried 891 00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:15,960 Speaker 21: in their phone or reading something on that and listen 892 00:45:16,040 --> 00:45:18,560 Speaker 21: to their own music. So just sitting the element too 893 00:45:18,600 --> 00:45:21,560 Speaker 21: and I guess whether it's silent or music playing doesn't 894 00:45:21,560 --> 00:45:23,160 Speaker 21: stop those people doing that either way. 895 00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:23,680 Speaker 2: Yeah. 896 00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:26,520 Speaker 3: Nice. So look, I appreciate that you can juggle a 897 00:45:26,560 --> 00:45:28,440 Speaker 3: few balls at the same time, but I'm sure there 898 00:45:28,440 --> 00:45:30,120 Speaker 3: are a couple of people out there saying, come on, 899 00:45:30,840 --> 00:45:33,719 Speaker 3: is this absolutely the most important thing the council needs 900 00:45:33,760 --> 00:45:35,400 Speaker 3: to be doing right now? Don't you need to be 901 00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:37,360 Speaker 3: focusing on other things? What do you What do you 902 00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:37,759 Speaker 3: say to that? 903 00:45:38,760 --> 00:45:38,880 Speaker 12: Oh? 904 00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:42,279 Speaker 21: I mean, yeah, there there are always always time for 905 00:45:43,400 --> 00:45:46,480 Speaker 21: a various brands of issues, and you know, this is 906 00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:49,560 Speaker 21: one that that has peaked interest, believe it or not, 907 00:45:50,160 --> 00:45:54,799 Speaker 21: around our council table, and definitely one that I guess 908 00:45:54,840 --> 00:45:58,360 Speaker 21: we want to just make sure we provide people the 909 00:45:58,400 --> 00:46:00,640 Speaker 21: opportunity to provide them feedback on. And look, we've already 910 00:46:00,640 --> 00:46:04,680 Speaker 21: got seventy odd people having provided some feedback and it's 911 00:46:04,760 --> 00:46:06,600 Speaker 21: in the space of a few hours since this afternoon, 912 00:46:06,719 --> 00:46:11,080 Speaker 21: so it's obviously a matter that people people are interested in. 913 00:46:11,239 --> 00:46:13,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's probably a better turnout than the toad in 914 00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:15,560 Speaker 3: our city councils having their elections. Thank you very much, Mark, 915 00:46:15,640 --> 00:46:17,840 Speaker 3: and good luck. I think it's a great idea. What 916 00:46:17,920 --> 00:46:21,200 Speaker 3: would I choose? I reckon Kanye West first six albums 917 00:46:21,320 --> 00:46:23,239 Speaker 3: on repeat and I reckon it should be thrown over 918 00:46:23,239 --> 00:46:25,239 Speaker 3: to the bus driver right so the bus. Each bus 919 00:46:25,360 --> 00:46:27,479 Speaker 3: driver should be able to make a call. It's my bus. 920 00:46:27,840 --> 00:46:29,680 Speaker 3: This is the music that I'm playing. I'm in charge 921 00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:31,719 Speaker 3: of the stereo. That's the end of that. Ninety two 922 00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:33,919 Speaker 3: ninety two is our text number twenty two past five. 923 00:46:35,320 --> 00:46:38,960 Speaker 2: Digging deeper into the day's headlines, it's Jack Dame on 924 00:46:39,120 --> 00:46:41,920 Speaker 2: Heather duper Seeland drive with one New Zealand. 925 00:46:42,120 --> 00:46:44,080 Speaker 1: Let's get connected these talks that'd be. 926 00:46:44,239 --> 00:46:46,000 Speaker 3: There is no doubt there are many things in our 927 00:46:46,080 --> 00:46:50,040 Speaker 3: society and in our lives that are over regulated. There's 928 00:46:50,080 --> 00:46:52,879 Speaker 3: no doubt there are plenty of improvements that we can 929 00:46:53,080 --> 00:46:56,759 Speaker 3: and should make and land you slaw and consenting and 930 00:46:56,880 --> 00:46:59,919 Speaker 3: constructing new homes. But given New Zealand's history with col 931 00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:04,080 Speaker 3: damp poorly constructed homes, you would really think we'd have 932 00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:07,480 Speaker 3: learned a lesson by now. Building and Construction Minister Chris 933 00:47:07,560 --> 00:47:10,320 Speaker 3: Pink confirmed earlier this week he was considering a rollback 934 00:47:10,400 --> 00:47:14,080 Speaker 3: of the standards for insulation the New h one standards 935 00:47:14,360 --> 00:47:17,319 Speaker 3: over concerns that they're too expensive. Construction costs in New 936 00:47:17,400 --> 00:47:19,840 Speaker 3: Zealand are already among the highest in the world, and 937 00:47:19,880 --> 00:47:23,200 Speaker 3: the Minister suggested the insulation requirements that were only introduced 938 00:47:23,280 --> 00:47:26,040 Speaker 3: last year could add between forty and fifty thousand to 939 00:47:26,120 --> 00:47:28,680 Speaker 3: the cost of a new build. But the cost for 940 00:47:28,760 --> 00:47:32,480 Speaker 3: a standard home apparently isn't that high. Certified Builders reckon 941 00:47:32,640 --> 00:47:35,840 Speaker 3: ten to twenty thousand dollars is more normal for building 942 00:47:35,880 --> 00:47:38,600 Speaker 3: a standard home up to the H one standards, and 943 00:47:38,760 --> 00:47:41,560 Speaker 3: while sure that is a lot of money, if that 944 00:47:41,760 --> 00:47:43,960 Speaker 3: is the cost of ensuring a warm, dry, safe home 945 00:47:44,040 --> 00:47:46,000 Speaker 3: for the next eighty or one hundred or one hundred 946 00:47:46,040 --> 00:47:49,640 Speaker 3: and fifty years, it seems pretty reasonable to me. The 947 00:47:49,760 --> 00:47:52,560 Speaker 3: savings on heating costs alone are estimated to be forty 948 00:47:52,640 --> 00:47:55,560 Speaker 3: percent for a house built to H one standards, and 949 00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:58,279 Speaker 3: for anyone with an energy bill as high as my 950 00:47:58,400 --> 00:48:01,919 Speaker 3: families right now, you would make money back in no time. 951 00:48:02,719 --> 00:48:06,440 Speaker 3: Certified Builders doesn't support rolling the standards back, and the 952 00:48:06,560 --> 00:48:09,759 Speaker 3: New Zealand Institute of Building Surveyors has now come out. 953 00:48:10,040 --> 00:48:12,520 Speaker 3: They came out this afternoon announcing yep, they don't want 954 00:48:12,520 --> 00:48:15,160 Speaker 3: to roll them back either. Quote the benefits of adhering 955 00:48:15,239 --> 00:48:18,400 Speaker 3: to the updated insulation standards far out weigh the costs 956 00:48:18,400 --> 00:48:22,480 Speaker 3: associated with their implementation. It is not actually clear who 957 00:48:22,560 --> 00:48:25,279 Speaker 3: does support the move at this stage, not actually clear 958 00:48:25,600 --> 00:48:28,680 Speaker 3: how many homes might not be built. But for a 959 00:48:28,800 --> 00:48:32,080 Speaker 3: regulation that costs ten or twenty thousand dollars, it would 960 00:48:32,120 --> 00:48:34,840 Speaker 3: just be so dumb. It would be so stupid to 961 00:48:35,000 --> 00:48:38,560 Speaker 3: deliberately start building crappier buildings for the sake of a 962 00:48:38,600 --> 00:48:42,400 Speaker 3: few short term savings while setting ourselves up for decades 963 00:48:42,440 --> 00:48:46,359 Speaker 3: of higher bills and worse health outcomes Tee ninety two, 964 00:48:46,640 --> 00:48:48,839 Speaker 3: ninety two. I love music on the buses. One day 965 00:48:48,920 --> 00:48:51,239 Speaker 3: I had a driver that had some jazz playing. It 966 00:48:51,360 --> 00:48:55,040 Speaker 3: was in Wellington. It was great. Ooh, I really think 967 00:48:55,080 --> 00:48:57,080 Speaker 3: the roll in my dice on your jazz that the 968 00:48:57,160 --> 00:48:59,680 Speaker 3: problem with jazz is it really divides people, you know, 969 00:49:00,040 --> 00:49:02,920 Speaker 3: it really divides people because the thing with jazz is 970 00:49:02,960 --> 00:49:05,000 Speaker 3: they're deliberately playing the wrong notes, aren't they. So that's 971 00:49:05,320 --> 00:49:09,439 Speaker 3: that's tricky. Get this jack. Maybe they could just play 972 00:49:09,600 --> 00:49:14,520 Speaker 3: a bus engine noise. Maybe they could that's an option. 973 00:49:14,680 --> 00:49:16,120 Speaker 3: If you've got some thoughts on what they should be 974 00:49:16,160 --> 00:49:19,560 Speaker 3: playing on the bus in the Horizons region. By all means, 975 00:49:19,640 --> 00:49:22,040 Speaker 3: flick us a text or send me an email.

They don't seem 1013 00:51:08,760 --> 00:51:12,800 Speaker 9: to have and be getting the same opportunities that the 1014 00:51:12,880 --> 00:51:17,560 Speaker 9: American interviewees I had are getting and can realize. 1015 00:51:18,040 --> 00:51:20,680 Speaker 3: I mean, I've got mates in the US who've played 1016 00:51:20,719 --> 00:51:23,520 Speaker 3: Division one basketball and that kind of thing who were 1017 00:51:23,640 --> 00:51:28,520 Speaker 3: just like basically able to access facilities that professional athletes 1018 00:51:28,560 --> 00:51:30,960 Speaker 3: in New Zealand could only dream of. But spell it 1019 00:51:31,040 --> 00:51:34,480 Speaker 3: out for us. What are the facilities for athletes in 1020 00:51:34,560 --> 00:51:37,560 Speaker 3: the US college system like compared to the facilities here. 1021 00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:41,920 Speaker 9: Oh, it's not even it's not even comparable. 1022 00:51:42,480 --> 00:51:42,680 Speaker 12: You know. 1023 00:51:43,480 --> 00:51:47,120 Speaker 9: Now all Blacks don't even have facilities like that. It 1024 00:51:47,239 --> 00:51:50,200 Speaker 9: goes further than that. The Yankees don't even have facilities 1025 00:51:50,960 --> 00:51:54,839 Speaker 9: that some of these college teams have. It's the resources 1026 00:51:54,880 --> 00:51:59,399 Speaker 9: that they can put behind you and another world. Yeah, 1027 00:51:59,800 --> 00:52:02,239 Speaker 9: it's difficult to understand if you don't know. 1028 00:52:02,680 --> 00:52:04,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's it. I mean, we do see some New 1029 00:52:04,800 --> 00:52:08,520 Speaker 3: Zealanders go to the US on college scholarships to study 1030 00:52:08,600 --> 00:52:12,040 Speaker 3: over there and access those high performance facilities. But what 1031 00:52:12,160 --> 00:52:15,840 Speaker 3: do you think in an ideal scenario, we could be 1032 00:52:15,920 --> 00:52:16,960 Speaker 3: doing better in New Zealand. 1033 00:52:18,040 --> 00:52:21,000 Speaker 9: You know, we have the pieces to give an experience 1034 00:52:21,160 --> 00:52:23,680 Speaker 9: like the US. It's just a matter of how we 1035 00:52:23,880 --> 00:52:29,760 Speaker 9: arrange those pieces. We have the universities, you know, if 1036 00:52:29,800 --> 00:52:35,200 Speaker 9: we compare what universities have to national sports organizations. You know, 1037 00:52:35,239 --> 00:52:37,279 Speaker 9: if you look at the Blues, the Blues have a 1038 00:52:37,320 --> 00:52:39,560 Speaker 9: strength and conditioning team of a couple of people and 1039 00:52:40,800 --> 00:52:43,640 Speaker 9: a couple of physios, and you know, the University of 1040 00:52:43,719 --> 00:52:48,560 Speaker 9: Auckland has a school dedicated to that. They have a 1041 00:52:48,680 --> 00:52:54,040 Speaker 9: school dedicated to nutrition, to sports science, to all of 1042 00:52:54,120 --> 00:52:57,880 Speaker 9: those things. It's you have to be able to access 1043 00:52:58,000 --> 00:53:01,200 Speaker 9: those types of things in the development from the development 1044 00:53:01,320 --> 00:53:04,040 Speaker 9: chain to make it worthwhile for them. 1045 00:53:04,120 --> 00:53:06,759 Speaker 3: Do you reckon there are sports that are especially well 1046 00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:09,440 Speaker 3: suited to working more closely with universities. 1047 00:53:11,520 --> 00:53:16,720 Speaker 9: Yeah, there are, I'd probably say, well, you know, especially 1048 00:53:16,800 --> 00:53:19,279 Speaker 9: the ones in New Zealand that don't need to send 1049 00:53:19,320 --> 00:53:23,400 Speaker 9: people to the US because that's kids who go off 1050 00:53:23,440 --> 00:53:26,760 Speaker 9: to the US. But those US schools are essentially paying 1051 00:53:27,560 --> 00:53:33,239 Speaker 9: to develop our athletes. That's a system that does it 1052 00:53:33,320 --> 00:53:34,800 Speaker 9: for the rest of the world. You know, we go. 1053 00:53:34,920 --> 00:53:38,000 Speaker 9: I looked at that kid from the University of Wisconsin. 1054 00:53:38,080 --> 00:53:41,439 Speaker 9: It's the swimmer that just swam the fastest fifty meter 1055 00:53:41,880 --> 00:53:46,960 Speaker 9: freestyle in New Zealand history out of the University of Wisconsin. 1056 00:53:47,600 --> 00:53:47,799 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1057 00:53:48,600 --> 00:53:50,279 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it's always going to be hard. I 1058 00:53:50,320 --> 00:53:52,400 Speaker 3: would have thought for our universities to compete for the 1059 00:53:52,520 --> 00:53:57,160 Speaker 3: NCAA environment over there. But what about the educational side 1060 00:53:57,160 --> 00:54:01,799 Speaker 3: of things? Why is giving young athletes any education alongside 1061 00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:03,400 Speaker 3: supporting their training so important? 1062 00:54:04,160 --> 00:54:07,279 Speaker 9: Yeah, it's quite an it's quite an involved question that 1063 00:54:07,440 --> 00:54:10,719 Speaker 9: because you know, one from a training point of view, 1064 00:54:10,760 --> 00:54:14,279 Speaker 9: I'd much prefer my athletes show up for practice having 1065 00:54:14,320 --> 00:54:17,160 Speaker 9: sat in a classroom that's their condition, than being out 1066 00:54:17,239 --> 00:54:19,959 Speaker 9: on their feed all day working a laboring job. Yeah, 1067 00:54:20,200 --> 00:54:23,480 Speaker 9: you know, that's common sense to want that to turn 1068 00:54:23,560 --> 00:54:26,400 Speaker 9: up to your practice. The other one is opportunity after 1069 00:54:28,040 --> 00:54:32,640 Speaker 9: after sport, and the circular flow of money that comes 1070 00:54:32,760 --> 00:54:37,719 Speaker 9: from education. You know, a degree is worth one point 1071 00:54:37,800 --> 00:54:41,600 Speaker 9: five million dollars more in your working life than someone 1072 00:54:41,680 --> 00:54:44,799 Speaker 9: that doesn't have one. Yeah, you know, so access to those. 1073 00:54:45,320 --> 00:54:48,360 Speaker 9: A master's is two point five and a PhD is 1074 00:54:48,440 --> 00:54:51,960 Speaker 9: three point five million more. So creating that type of 1075 00:54:52,040 --> 00:54:57,239 Speaker 9: alumni and that kind of circular motion of achievement, academics 1076 00:54:57,320 --> 00:55:01,000 Speaker 9: and sport money, it all come back on itself and 1077 00:55:01,080 --> 00:55:02,040 Speaker 9: it's self sustaining. 1078 00:55:02,360 --> 00:55:02,560 Speaker 5: Yeah. 1079 00:55:03,080 --> 00:55:05,359 Speaker 3: Yeah, oh that's really interesting. Thank you so much, Steve, 1080 00:55:05,480 --> 00:55:08,000 Speaker 3: really appreciate your time. Steve Roberts as a doctoral student 1081 00:55:08,040 --> 00:55:10,680 Speaker 3: at Auckland University's Faculty of Education and Social Work. It's 1082 00:55:10,719 --> 00:55:14,080 Speaker 3: interesting I was working in the US when Steven Adams 1083 00:55:14,800 --> 00:55:19,520 Speaker 3: was studying and playing basketball, and he ended up graduating, 1084 00:55:19,640 --> 00:55:22,560 Speaker 3: as I think they called him a student scholar or 1085 00:55:22,600 --> 00:55:25,200 Speaker 3: an athlete scholar, like compared to lots of the other 1086 00:55:25,239 --> 00:55:28,600 Speaker 3: people who were on basketball scholarships. He apparently did quite 1087 00:55:28,640 --> 00:55:31,239 Speaker 3: well in the academic department. Although I don't know if 1088 00:55:31,280 --> 00:55:34,360 Speaker 3: something tells me he's probably going to be okay, probably 1089 00:55:34,400 --> 00:55:35,719 Speaker 3: not going to be out there looking for a job 1090 00:55:35,760 --> 00:55:38,680 Speaker 3: anytime soon. You're hoping that Steven Adams has earned a 1091 00:55:38,719 --> 00:55:41,400 Speaker 3: few million and banked that away by now nineteen to 1092 00:55:41,520 --> 00:55:43,680 Speaker 3: six on news doorg zb the. 1093 00:55:43,840 --> 00:55:48,640 Speaker 2: Friday Sports Huddle with New Zealand southebyst International Realty exceptional 1094 00:55:48,719 --> 00:55:50,160 Speaker 2: marketing for every property. 1095 00:55:58,600 --> 00:56:02,759 Speaker 22: You give him an opportunity, and that's true. Really harder 1096 00:56:02,800 --> 00:56:05,960 Speaker 22: the last three to four weeks, you know, look as 1097 00:56:06,600 --> 00:56:10,640 Speaker 22: hell about great opportunities for some from debutants go and 1098 00:56:11,760 --> 00:56:12,560 Speaker 22: show their challenge. 1099 00:56:12,640 --> 00:56:14,239 Speaker 3: Oh the Futuresky, We're going to win. 1100 00:56:14,520 --> 00:56:17,719 Speaker 21: I don't think anyone can hide that fact. We're going 1101 00:56:17,800 --> 00:56:18,040 Speaker 21: to win. 1102 00:56:18,760 --> 00:56:19,719 Speaker 1: We know what's ahead of us. 1103 00:56:19,880 --> 00:56:22,200 Speaker 8: Well, I'd always want Artie Savia in my team, and 1104 00:56:22,200 --> 00:56:25,080 Speaker 8: I'm sure the Hurricanes do. This isn't the worst possible outcome. 1105 00:56:25,160 --> 00:56:26,920 Speaker 8: Check at least he's not going to the Blues. 1106 00:56:27,920 --> 00:56:31,280 Speaker 3: Sports huddle with us. This evening, newstalks 'b sports news 1107 00:56:31,360 --> 00:56:34,520 Speaker 3: director Clay Wilson and News dooks 'b rugby commentator Paul 1108 00:56:34,560 --> 00:56:37,960 Speaker 3: Allison call Uarda were calder Jack Jack, and let's start 1109 00:56:38,000 --> 00:56:40,080 Speaker 3: off with the Warriors. This evening ten o'clock they're up 1110 00:56:40,080 --> 00:56:43,120 Speaker 3: against the Raiders and Clay It's a tough ask. Are 1111 00:56:43,200 --> 00:56:44,840 Speaker 3: they stuffed without Tahu Harris? 1112 00:56:45,640 --> 00:56:45,839 Speaker 12: Ah? 1113 00:56:46,640 --> 00:56:48,920 Speaker 23: Stuffed and what context? Stuffed in terms of making the 1114 00:56:49,000 --> 00:56:51,759 Speaker 23: top eight or stuff in terms well both winning a premiership. 1115 00:56:52,480 --> 00:56:54,480 Speaker 23: In terms of winning a premiership, I think they was 1116 00:56:54,719 --> 00:56:55,720 Speaker 23: they were already up against. 1117 00:56:55,960 --> 00:56:58,080 Speaker 3: Winning a premiership is very trucking. 1118 00:56:58,120 --> 00:56:59,840 Speaker 23: Yeah, and making the eight, I don't think so. I 1119 00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:02,359 Speaker 23: I think the NRL is such an open competition. There's 1120 00:57:02,400 --> 00:57:04,680 Speaker 23: seven rounds to go still and there are only three 1121 00:57:04,760 --> 00:57:07,839 Speaker 23: points out of it. I wouldn't be shocked either way. 1122 00:57:07,960 --> 00:57:10,640 Speaker 3: If they make it, no surprise. If they don't make it, 1123 00:57:10,719 --> 00:57:11,440 Speaker 3: no surprise either. 1124 00:57:11,640 --> 00:57:14,440 Speaker 23: Those teams around the eight, inside the eight, there's not 1125 00:57:14,560 --> 00:57:17,720 Speaker 23: much between them. And Yes, while he's a key player, 1126 00:57:18,040 --> 00:57:20,400 Speaker 23: I think they've got enough depth there and enough good 1127 00:57:20,440 --> 00:57:22,000 Speaker 23: players in the team they could still make it. 1128 00:57:22,160 --> 00:57:23,680 Speaker 3: Yeah right, I mean, I mean that's the thing with 1129 00:57:23,760 --> 00:57:25,800 Speaker 3: the Warriors, right they might they could or they could 1130 00:57:25,840 --> 00:57:26,280 Speaker 3: be disaster. 1131 00:57:26,400 --> 00:57:26,760 Speaker 5: We never know. 1132 00:57:26,840 --> 00:57:27,640 Speaker 3: That's why we love them. 1133 00:57:28,080 --> 00:57:28,320 Speaker 21: Paul. 1134 00:57:28,600 --> 00:57:31,120 Speaker 3: How much do you think they're hurting from losing Tohu 1135 00:57:31,120 --> 00:57:32,160 Speaker 3: Harris for the rest of the season. 1136 00:57:33,120 --> 00:57:35,960 Speaker 24: Oh, that'll hurt them, no doubt about that. Nicol Cole 1137 00:57:36,000 --> 00:57:39,960 Speaker 24: said's not there tonight, neither's Montoya and Jamal Foggerty's back 1138 00:57:40,040 --> 00:57:42,560 Speaker 24: for the Raiders. But you look at where they are 1139 00:57:42,720 --> 00:57:45,000 Speaker 24: in the season. They've had seven wins out of seventeen. 1140 00:57:45,760 --> 00:57:48,560 Speaker 24: Last year you needed thirteen wins to make the top eight. 1141 00:57:48,640 --> 00:57:51,280 Speaker 24: The previous year you needed fourteen. You go back to 1142 00:57:51,320 --> 00:57:54,560 Speaker 24: twenty twenty one, it was ten wins. So they've got 1143 00:57:54,640 --> 00:57:57,360 Speaker 24: seven games left and five of those teams are above 1144 00:57:57,400 --> 00:57:59,120 Speaker 24: them on the table. We know they're hot and cold. 1145 00:57:59,480 --> 00:58:02,560 Speaker 24: Sometimes they perform superbly well, other times they're at the 1146 00:58:02,600 --> 00:58:05,400 Speaker 24: salar door, so you really start to wonder whereabouts they 1147 00:58:05,480 --> 00:58:08,400 Speaker 24: might be. They need to be consistent. The Raiders are 1148 00:58:08,440 --> 00:58:11,160 Speaker 24: in a similar position on the table plays right. I mean, 1149 00:58:11,320 --> 00:58:14,440 Speaker 24: they can certainly still make the top eight, but every 1150 00:58:14,520 --> 00:58:16,880 Speaker 24: win from here on is pretty well crucial. I think 1151 00:58:16,920 --> 00:58:19,160 Speaker 24: they need at least five out of the next seven 1152 00:58:19,560 --> 00:58:21,480 Speaker 24: next to win it. And if you don't do that, 1153 00:58:21,600 --> 00:58:23,560 Speaker 24: and the fact that, as I said, five of the 1154 00:58:23,720 --> 00:58:26,720 Speaker 24: remaining seven games they've got teams above them on the table, 1155 00:58:26,880 --> 00:58:28,680 Speaker 24: it's not going to be an easy ask. And I 1156 00:58:28,760 --> 00:58:32,120 Speaker 24: think you talk about Tahu Harris his loss will probably 1157 00:58:32,720 --> 00:58:34,840 Speaker 24: certainly hurt them. But we've seen in the passmen they 1158 00:58:35,200 --> 00:58:38,600 Speaker 24: had some key players out. That's when sometimes, just sometimes 1159 00:58:38,640 --> 00:58:39,520 Speaker 24: they perform their best. 1160 00:58:40,320 --> 00:58:43,160 Speaker 3: Paul, looking at that squad for tomorrow's All Bags match 1161 00:58:43,200 --> 00:58:45,800 Speaker 3: against Fiji in San Diego, of course, do you reckon 1162 00:58:46,160 --> 00:58:49,680 Speaker 3: there is a risk that Raiser is maybe taking Fiji 1163 00:58:49,960 --> 00:58:52,760 Speaker 3: just a little lightly with such a debutante heavy squad. 1164 00:58:53,560 --> 00:58:55,400 Speaker 24: Well, he's got to play them somewhere. He's picked thirty 1165 00:58:55,440 --> 00:58:57,840 Speaker 24: two and it added two more, so he's got thirty four. 1166 00:58:58,320 --> 00:58:59,240 Speaker 9: We saw he's very. 1167 00:58:59,160 --> 00:59:03,040 Speaker 24: Consistent in that English series and he has experienced guys 1168 00:59:03,280 --> 00:59:05,880 Speaker 24: and didn't really give any deputantes a chance apart from 1169 00:59:05,920 --> 00:59:09,040 Speaker 24: random are gonna run in that second test. This is 1170 00:59:09,080 --> 00:59:12,280 Speaker 24: the opportunity to do it. Fiji shure. They went really 1171 00:59:12,360 --> 00:59:14,240 Speaker 24: well at the World Cup last year. They've got a 1172 00:59:14,280 --> 00:59:16,080 Speaker 24: lot of players there from that Fiji and drew a 1173 00:59:16,200 --> 00:59:17,040 Speaker 24: super rugby team. 1174 00:59:17,080 --> 00:59:17,440 Speaker 9: This year. 1175 00:59:17,800 --> 00:59:21,480 Speaker 24: They played Georgia and beat them twenty one twelve. Earlier 1176 00:59:21,520 --> 00:59:23,880 Speaker 24: this month they got beaten by the Barbars, but they 1177 00:59:23,960 --> 00:59:26,040 Speaker 24: haven't got the same depth of squad as the All Blacks. 1178 00:59:26,160 --> 00:59:27,600 Speaker 24: I don't think he's taking a risk. I think he's 1179 00:59:27,600 --> 00:59:30,760 Speaker 24: doing exactly the right thing, and I think he's got 1180 00:59:30,800 --> 00:59:33,200 Speaker 24: to blood them somewhere because it doesn't get easier for 1181 00:59:33,240 --> 00:59:35,440 Speaker 24: the All Blacks after this. This will probably be one 1182 00:59:35,440 --> 00:59:37,880 Speaker 24: of the easiest tests that they play in the twenty 1183 00:59:37,960 --> 00:59:39,040 Speaker 24: twenty four calendar season. 1184 00:59:39,560 --> 00:59:41,360 Speaker 3: Oh dangerous words there, poor. 1185 00:59:44,240 --> 00:59:46,320 Speaker 1: Whire you go, paul I. 1186 00:59:46,360 --> 00:59:47,400 Speaker 9: Hopefully it doesn't come back. 1187 00:59:47,280 --> 00:59:50,680 Speaker 3: Annot Yeah, yeah, we'll be cliping up those comments as 1188 00:59:50,720 --> 00:59:53,440 Speaker 3: we speak. Beautiful, Well, what is going to be gameplay 1189 00:59:53,640 --> 00:59:57,000 Speaker 3: from having this game in San Diego outside of a 1190 00:59:57,080 --> 00:59:57,600 Speaker 3: quick buck. 1191 00:59:57,960 --> 01:00:01,280 Speaker 23: Well, every sport in res memory has been after the 1192 01:00:01,400 --> 01:00:05,800 Speaker 23: US market. It's such a massive market financially obviously, the viewers, 1193 01:00:05,880 --> 01:00:10,680 Speaker 23: you can attract, sponsorships, all those things. And yes, while 1194 01:00:11,160 --> 01:00:13,040 Speaker 23: you might argue that rugby is never going to be 1195 01:00:13,120 --> 01:00:15,960 Speaker 23: the NFL, the NBA, the MLB, you know, the big 1196 01:00:16,040 --> 01:00:19,160 Speaker 23: four that dominate in the US and other sports, if 1197 01:00:19,200 --> 01:00:22,320 Speaker 23: you can gain even just a chunk, a small chunk 1198 01:00:22,360 --> 01:00:24,720 Speaker 23: of that US market, you know there's a lot to 1199 01:00:24,800 --> 01:00:28,800 Speaker 23: be gained for n z R for going there right so, 1200 01:00:29,120 --> 01:00:31,840 Speaker 23: and for World Rugby. If they can increase rugby's presence 1201 01:00:31,920 --> 01:00:34,600 Speaker 23: in the US, you know that that increases things for 1202 01:00:34,720 --> 01:00:37,960 Speaker 23: rugby globally. So I get why they're doing it. 1203 01:00:39,000 --> 01:00:40,840 Speaker 3: I just prefer to say the game and suver. I know, 1204 01:00:41,040 --> 01:00:42,919 Speaker 3: I know they're making money. I know this might well 1205 01:00:42,960 --> 01:00:44,520 Speaker 3: make them a whole lot more money in the Fijian 1206 01:00:44,640 --> 01:00:47,200 Speaker 3: Union than they would if they were hosting this game 1207 01:00:47,280 --> 01:00:50,520 Speaker 3: in Fiji. I just it's always going to be a 1208 01:00:50,720 --> 01:00:54,240 Speaker 3: massive off Broadway sport in the US. They try and 1209 01:00:54,560 --> 01:00:57,640 Speaker 3: explain the breakdown, try and explain, Oh, the scrum has 1210 01:00:57,680 --> 01:01:00,520 Speaker 3: to reset because this prop didn't have his buy right, Like, 1211 01:01:00,680 --> 01:01:02,600 Speaker 3: try and explain this to and it's not going to. 1212 01:01:02,600 --> 01:01:05,840 Speaker 23: Warn American football. You know, we compare American football to rugby. 1213 01:01:06,240 --> 01:01:07,600 Speaker 23: It's just so dominant. 1214 01:01:07,640 --> 01:01:10,160 Speaker 3: But as a spectacle, American football a TV and made 1215 01:01:10,200 --> 01:01:14,120 Speaker 3: for TV spectacle, it is arguably better suited to introducing 1216 01:01:14,160 --> 01:01:15,960 Speaker 3: it to a new audience. I'm not I love rugby. 1217 01:01:16,000 --> 01:01:18,040 Speaker 23: I'm just saying I guess New Zealand rugby in the 1218 01:01:18,440 --> 01:01:20,920 Speaker 23: position they're in, are looking at they're really trying to 1219 01:01:20,960 --> 01:01:23,480 Speaker 23: maximize what they're doing financially. I mean, you only have 1220 01:01:23,520 --> 01:01:25,480 Speaker 23: to look at what's going on with the governance stuff 1221 01:01:25,600 --> 01:01:28,439 Speaker 23: right that they're trying to get financially back on track, 1222 01:01:28,640 --> 01:01:30,360 Speaker 23: and this is this is part of that whether some 1223 01:01:30,440 --> 01:01:32,320 Speaker 23: people like it or not. I would prefer to see 1224 01:01:32,360 --> 01:01:33,800 Speaker 23: the game in suber as well. I'm sure a lot 1225 01:01:33,800 --> 01:01:34,479 Speaker 23: of Keiwis would. 1226 01:01:34,560 --> 01:01:36,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, we're back with the U Stalk Z'B 1227 01:01:36,840 --> 01:01:38,919 Speaker 3: Sports Huddle in a couple of minutes. Clay Wilson Paul 1228 01:01:38,960 --> 01:01:41,200 Speaker 3: Allison with us this evening. It's thirteen to six. 1229 01:01:42,880 --> 01:01:46,960 Speaker 2: The Friday Sports Huddle with New Zealand Southby's International Realty, 1230 01:01:47,200 --> 01:01:49,120 Speaker 2: Unparalleled reach and Results. 1231 01:01:49,520 --> 01:01:52,240 Speaker 3: Paul Allison Clay Wilson on the huddle this evening. An 1232 01:01:52,240 --> 01:01:55,800 Speaker 3: amazing report from Liam Napier in The Herald Today suggesting 1233 01:01:55,880 --> 01:01:59,320 Speaker 3: that Ardie Savere might be set to leave the Hurricanes 1234 01:02:00,000 --> 01:02:03,080 Speaker 3: and join Mowana Pacifica. In Steve, Paul, what do you think. 1235 01:02:04,200 --> 01:02:06,560 Speaker 24: Well, my understanding, that's exactly what he wants to do 1236 01:02:06,840 --> 01:02:09,680 Speaker 24: and it's just a matter of making that. I think 1237 01:02:09,720 --> 01:02:13,840 Speaker 24: it's an outstanding decision if Moana Pacifica can grab his services. 1238 01:02:13,840 --> 01:02:16,400 Speaker 24: Obviously he's got some own heritage born in Wellington, one 1239 01:02:16,480 --> 01:02:19,320 Speaker 24: hundred and thirty one games or something for the Hurricanes already. 1240 01:02:19,640 --> 01:02:22,680 Speaker 24: You don't get a bigger name signing for Moana Pacifica, 1241 01:02:22,680 --> 01:02:25,240 Speaker 24: who have been really mucked around since they've come into 1242 01:02:25,280 --> 01:02:28,200 Speaker 24: this competition three years ago. They haven't had a stable 1243 01:02:28,280 --> 01:02:30,600 Speaker 24: home base. They've been shoved around all over the place. 1244 01:02:31,320 --> 01:02:33,120 Speaker 24: They finished at the bottom of the table the first 1245 01:02:33,200 --> 01:02:36,440 Speaker 24: couple of seasons. Got four wins this year and got 1246 01:02:36,480 --> 01:02:39,400 Speaker 24: some big names around them, likes of Sir Brian Williams 1247 01:02:39,480 --> 01:02:42,160 Speaker 24: and Michael Jones and Tanomang of the Coach and so 1248 01:02:42,480 --> 01:02:45,920 Speaker 24: they've got some heavyweight players or ex players that have 1249 01:02:46,000 --> 01:02:48,240 Speaker 24: got a lot of influence and Ardie Savia would be 1250 01:02:48,240 --> 01:02:51,040 Speaker 24: the perfect fit for them to be able to launch 1251 01:02:51,080 --> 01:02:53,520 Speaker 24: them to another level. I think it's a great decision 1252 01:02:53,560 --> 01:02:55,800 Speaker 24: because the Hurricanes, let's face it, they've got a rich 1253 01:02:56,040 --> 01:02:57,840 Speaker 24: you know, the sport for Riches and the loose spwards 1254 01:02:57,840 --> 01:03:01,800 Speaker 24: with Lackey and Jose and Shields and Flanders and the like. 1255 01:03:01,880 --> 01:03:03,480 Speaker 24: So they're not going to miss him too much. He's 1256 01:03:03,520 --> 01:03:05,680 Speaker 24: an outstanding player. But I'll tell you what he's going 1257 01:03:05,720 --> 01:03:08,000 Speaker 24: to be meet early for minor pacificate, then what he 1258 01:03:08,080 --> 01:03:09,320 Speaker 24: probably will be for the Hurricane. 1259 01:03:09,400 --> 01:03:11,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, I can you can only imagine what it would 1260 01:03:11,120 --> 01:03:12,600 Speaker 3: do for that for that franchise play. 1261 01:03:13,080 --> 01:03:15,160 Speaker 23: Yeah, a massive And I think Artie Severe has talked 1262 01:03:15,160 --> 01:03:18,440 Speaker 23: about this probably I'm sure he has spoken about this already, 1263 01:03:18,440 --> 01:03:20,840 Speaker 23: about how much you love the concept of Mowana and 1264 01:03:21,080 --> 01:03:23,360 Speaker 23: how he could see himself later in his career going there, 1265 01:03:23,680 --> 01:03:25,360 Speaker 23: And I think it makes sense at this time where 1266 01:03:25,360 --> 01:03:29,080 Speaker 23: the Hurricanes are performing well, and like Paul says, I 1267 01:03:29,280 --> 01:03:30,840 Speaker 23: just you know, if there was one position where the 1268 01:03:30,920 --> 01:03:34,480 Speaker 23: Hurricanes are spoiled for good players and young players that 1269 01:03:34,560 --> 01:03:36,520 Speaker 23: are going to play in that position for years to come, 1270 01:03:36,640 --> 01:03:39,640 Speaker 23: it's in the loose forwards. So, you know, while disappointing, 1271 01:03:39,720 --> 01:03:43,800 Speaker 23: I'm a Hurricanes follower fan, but I think it's a 1272 01:03:43,840 --> 01:03:46,400 Speaker 23: great move for him to go to to Mowaana, lead 1273 01:03:46,520 --> 01:03:49,080 Speaker 23: the side and really you know, be a role model 1274 01:03:49,680 --> 01:03:51,120 Speaker 23: for the for those younger So what a. 1275 01:03:51,240 --> 01:03:53,400 Speaker 3: Leader, man, what a leader he's going to I mean 1276 01:03:53,440 --> 01:03:55,560 Speaker 3: he is already obviously, but for that team, you can 1277 01:03:55,680 --> 01:03:57,800 Speaker 3: just imagine that, you know, what kind of influence he's 1278 01:03:57,840 --> 01:03:58,760 Speaker 3: going to have, Yeah. 1279 01:03:58,640 --> 01:04:00,360 Speaker 23: Just like you think about the manner he have in 1280 01:04:00,400 --> 01:04:03,280 Speaker 23: that team, but also the ip that he brings, yeah, 1281 01:04:03,400 --> 01:04:06,760 Speaker 23: in terms of into the trainings, into how they're playing. 1282 01:04:07,160 --> 01:04:09,200 Speaker 23: Those players are just going to follow him and watch 1283 01:04:09,240 --> 01:04:11,400 Speaker 23: what he does with so much interest. 1284 01:04:11,560 --> 01:04:14,000 Speaker 3: So we are less than a week away now, about 1285 01:04:14,000 --> 01:04:16,280 Speaker 3: a week away from the opening ceremony of the Olympics. Paul, 1286 01:04:16,280 --> 01:04:17,600 Speaker 3: where is your height level at? 1287 01:04:19,000 --> 01:04:19,440 Speaker 9: Is building? 1288 01:04:19,720 --> 01:04:22,240 Speaker 24: It's starting to build. I'm really quite excited about some 1289 01:04:22,320 --> 01:04:25,160 Speaker 24: of the New Zealand athletes in Action one hundred and 1290 01:04:25,240 --> 01:04:28,920 Speaker 24: ninety five. We've got ninety seven women's spread across twenty 1291 01:04:29,080 --> 01:04:32,720 Speaker 24: two different sports. Most of those are actually in team 1292 01:04:32,760 --> 01:04:36,760 Speaker 24: sports thirty six footballers and twenty four and rugby sevens, 1293 01:04:36,800 --> 01:04:38,960 Speaker 24: but we're well covered. I think we've actually got a 1294 01:04:39,000 --> 01:04:41,080 Speaker 24: really strong team. And as you get closer in the 1295 01:04:41,160 --> 01:04:44,040 Speaker 24: action starts, it's only seven days away, sixteen days of glory. 1296 01:04:44,680 --> 01:04:47,080 Speaker 24: They talk about it. I'm really excited by it. I'm 1297 01:04:47,120 --> 01:04:48,440 Speaker 24: not quite sure how they're going to get on on 1298 01:04:48,480 --> 01:04:52,200 Speaker 24: the Sane River though, because I see the Paris met 1299 01:04:52,360 --> 01:04:54,800 Speaker 24: had a bit of a dip there in the last 1300 01:04:55,040 --> 01:04:58,600 Speaker 24: couple of days, and they're saying that if that water 1301 01:04:58,800 --> 01:05:01,800 Speaker 24: isn't clear enough to be able to swimmen, the tri 1302 01:05:02,000 --> 01:05:04,080 Speaker 24: ethlon is going down to a jewethlon. 1303 01:05:06,360 --> 01:05:08,919 Speaker 3: It would be so embarrassing. What do you think, Clay 1304 01:05:09,360 --> 01:05:11,360 Speaker 3: has your has your hype level for the games? 1305 01:05:11,520 --> 01:05:11,720 Speaker 9: Yeah? 1306 01:05:11,960 --> 01:05:13,840 Speaker 23: Like Paul building, and I think it's one of those 1307 01:05:13,880 --> 01:05:16,080 Speaker 23: things here in New Zealand. Once it starts. We get 1308 01:05:16,120 --> 01:05:18,360 Speaker 23: into it because we love our sport and we love 1309 01:05:18,400 --> 01:05:21,200 Speaker 23: to see our Kiwi athletes doing well. And I agree 1310 01:05:21,240 --> 01:05:22,800 Speaker 23: we've got a pretty strong team. I mean, it was 1311 01:05:22,840 --> 01:05:25,560 Speaker 23: so successful, wasn't in Tokyo. I think twenty medals in total, 1312 01:05:25,680 --> 01:05:29,040 Speaker 23: seven goals, and I think we could we could achieve 1313 01:05:29,080 --> 01:05:31,400 Speaker 23: the same kind of success. And it's not just the 1314 01:05:31,480 --> 01:05:33,720 Speaker 23: Kiwi events, it's it's all everything that comes with it. 1315 01:05:33,800 --> 01:05:38,320 Speaker 23: One hundred meters, you know, the pool, all those things. 1316 01:05:38,520 --> 01:05:40,160 Speaker 23: It's great obviously. 1317 01:05:40,080 --> 01:05:42,760 Speaker 3: Becoming an expert of sports that you haven't watched at 1318 01:05:42,760 --> 01:05:44,480 Speaker 3: all for the last yeah it's coming. 1319 01:05:44,960 --> 01:05:46,320 Speaker 6: And the rhythm. 1320 01:05:47,920 --> 01:05:50,360 Speaker 23: Yeah, we all become experts in sports that we've never watched. 1321 01:05:50,440 --> 01:05:53,840 Speaker 23: So definitely looking forward to it with great interest.

There is some 1340 01:06:41,240 --> 01:06:44,160 Speaker 3: suggestion that this has come as a result of an 1341 01:06:44,200 --> 01:06:48,200 Speaker 3: issue with services that are being hosted by Microsoft.

So 1367 01:07:57,000 --> 01:07:59,760 Speaker 3: so far ASB and key We Banks seem to have 1368 01:07:59,840 --> 01:08:02,640 Speaker 3: been affected by Kewi Bank have put out a statement 1369 01:08:02,680 --> 01:08:04,520 Speaker 3: saying they're team's looking into it as they speak. They're 1370 01:08:04,560 --> 01:08:07,000 Speaker 3: hoping to have it resolved shortly. But from what we 1371 01:08:07,080 --> 01:08:09,680 Speaker 3: can see, it's not just the banks being affected at 1372 01:08:09,720 --> 01:08:13,400 Speaker 3: the moment. ABC Radio and Australia Sky News in the 1373 01:08:13,560 --> 01:08:16,200 Speaker 3: UK have also been affected. So anyway, we're trying to 1374 01:08:16,320 --> 01:08:19,679 Speaker 3: work out exactly what has happened and what is happening 1375 01:08:19,720 --> 01:08:21,240 Speaker 3: and when this is going to be resolved, and of 1376 01:08:21,280 --> 01:08:23,519 Speaker 3: course I will bring you any updates just as soon 1377 01:08:23,600 --> 01:08:26,080 Speaker 3: as they come to hand. Right now, at six minutes 1378 01:08:26,120 --> 01:08:29,160 Speaker 3: past six, Team B and Z and ke We Bank 1379 01:08:29,240 --> 01:08:31,639 Speaker 3: are the latest banks to announce cuts to their mortgage 1380 01:08:31,720 --> 01:08:34,479 Speaker 3: rates today, even if you can't log into the Kewi 1381 01:08:34,560 --> 01:08:37,800 Speaker 3: Bank online banking at the stage, A and Z and 1382 01:08:37,960 --> 01:08:40,880 Speaker 3: Westpac had already dropped their rates earlier in the week, 1383 01:08:40,920 --> 01:08:43,080 Speaker 3: and so ASB is now the only one of the 1384 01:08:43,120 --> 01:08:45,519 Speaker 3: big banks to hold back a cut at this stage. 1385 01:08:45,960 --> 01:08:49,240 Speaker 3: Lee Hodgits is from the Finance and Mortgage Advisors Association 1386 01:08:49,439 --> 01:08:53,160 Speaker 3: Kilder Good Evening, Chach, So what do you reckon? The 1387 01:08:53,240 --> 01:08:55,640 Speaker 3: banks are just looking at that inflation data from the 1388 01:08:55,640 --> 01:08:58,880 Speaker 3: Consumer Price Index earlier this week thinking the time is right. 1389 01:09:00,120 --> 01:09:03,000 Speaker 13: Well, we'd like to hope so consumers have done what's 1390 01:09:03,040 --> 01:09:05,680 Speaker 13: been asked for us. We pull back on spending, and 1391 01:09:05,800 --> 01:09:08,240 Speaker 13: I think everyone's looking for a reward or a life 1392 01:09:08,240 --> 01:09:10,240 Speaker 13: at the end of the tunnel, and that will come 1393 01:09:10,280 --> 01:09:13,400 Speaker 13: in some intrastrate reduction and some relief, hopefully before. 1394 01:09:13,160 --> 01:09:13,880 Speaker 9: The end of the year. 1395 01:09:14,120 --> 01:09:17,599 Speaker 3: So to what extent do you think, given these most 1396 01:09:17,680 --> 01:09:22,839 Speaker 3: recent cuts, the cuts are already essentially baked into retail 1397 01:09:22,880 --> 01:09:23,479 Speaker 3: interest rates. 1398 01:09:24,400 --> 01:09:26,400 Speaker 13: Yeah, well, we're looking at that or the data that's 1399 01:09:26,960 --> 01:09:30,639 Speaker 13: been apparent from the drop in the lending rates anywhere 1400 01:09:30,640 --> 01:09:33,000 Speaker 13: from six months through five year rates at the moment 1401 01:09:33,680 --> 01:09:35,760 Speaker 13: across the board, and you called it out there. Apart 1402 01:09:35,800 --> 01:09:39,000 Speaker 13: from ASP haven't moved at this point, but you know, 1403 01:09:39,040 --> 01:09:43,160 Speaker 13: there's some definite reduction and cuts already calculated into the 1404 01:09:44,200 --> 01:09:46,800 Speaker 13: rates that we're seeing at the moment. So I guess 1405 01:09:46,840 --> 01:09:49,120 Speaker 13: there's a confidence. It's not when the rates will drop, 1406 01:09:49,200 --> 01:09:52,800 Speaker 13: it's when, sorry, not if, but when and also by 1407 01:09:52,880 --> 01:09:54,360 Speaker 13: how much is. 1408 01:09:54,360 --> 01:09:54,800 Speaker 12: That going to be? 1409 01:09:55,120 --> 01:09:59,600 Speaker 3: So, for example, if indeed the Reserve Bank kind of 1410 01:09:59,640 --> 01:10:02,640 Speaker 3: continue on its most recent trajectory, acknowledging that they have 1411 01:10:02,800 --> 01:10:05,120 Speaker 3: kind of moved a little bit in the last six 1412 01:10:05,240 --> 01:10:07,599 Speaker 3: or seven weeks, but if they continue on this trajectory 1413 01:10:07,600 --> 01:10:09,600 Speaker 3: where it looks like a rate cut in November is 1414 01:10:09,800 --> 01:10:12,320 Speaker 3: likely and we get a twenty five point basis cut, 1415 01:10:12,439 --> 01:10:14,679 Speaker 3: are we going to see the banks immediately lower interest 1416 01:10:14,720 --> 01:10:17,360 Speaker 3: rates or do you reckon by that point? If it happens, 1417 01:10:17,400 --> 01:10:20,479 Speaker 3: then it's all going to kind of be locked in well. 1418 01:10:20,320 --> 01:10:22,960 Speaker 13: We're calling for the banks to pass on those infrast 1419 01:10:23,040 --> 01:10:26,840 Speaker 13: rate reductions as soon as as possible. They need to 1420 01:10:26,880 --> 01:10:29,400 Speaker 13: do the right thing by the consumer. We need to 1421 01:10:29,439 --> 01:10:33,000 Speaker 13: see that drop in this year as well. If it 1422 01:10:33,080 --> 01:10:35,519 Speaker 13: does go down point two five percent, we might be 1423 01:10:35,600 --> 01:10:38,040 Speaker 13: hopeful we'll see another drop early next year, but it's 1424 01:10:38,080 --> 01:10:41,320 Speaker 13: a long time is between November and when the Reserve 1425 01:10:41,400 --> 01:10:43,760 Speaker 13: Bank does meet again and check the OCR and the 1426 01:10:43,840 --> 01:10:44,160 Speaker 13: new year. 1427 01:10:44,400 --> 01:10:47,759 Speaker 3: So, if I was to go about refixing my mortgage, 1428 01:10:48,200 --> 01:10:51,479 Speaker 3: would you recommend asking the banks to do better than 1429 01:10:51,479 --> 01:10:52,519 Speaker 3: their advertised rates. 1430 01:10:54,240 --> 01:10:55,760 Speaker 4: Look, you can do that. 1431 01:10:56,240 --> 01:10:59,280 Speaker 13: You're always entitled to ask for a better rate, and 1432 01:11:00,600 --> 01:11:05,040 Speaker 13: also you can consider different factors. We could split mortgages 1433 01:11:05,080 --> 01:11:07,000 Speaker 13: over six or twelve months into a little bit of 1434 01:11:07,920 --> 01:11:10,080 Speaker 13: hedging about what the rates would look like. 1435 01:11:10,200 --> 01:11:11,080 Speaker 4: And look, my. 1436 01:11:11,240 --> 01:11:14,880 Speaker 13: Recommendation coming from an association has gone talk to a 1437 01:11:15,000 --> 01:11:18,799 Speaker 13: professional and get some advice. Mortgage advisors have access to everything, 1438 01:11:18,880 --> 01:11:20,800 Speaker 13: all the rates, They can see where the movements are 1439 01:11:20,840 --> 01:11:23,040 Speaker 13: in the banks, and sometimes they can have a bit 1440 01:11:23,040 --> 01:11:25,120 Speaker 13: of bargaining power there on your behalf because they have 1441 01:11:25,200 --> 01:11:27,519 Speaker 13: all that access of the information at their finger tips, 1442 01:11:28,560 --> 01:11:31,160 Speaker 13: and it's always a good opportunity to talk to someone 1443 01:11:31,200 --> 01:11:34,600 Speaker 13: and get some advice about the best product, the best structure, 1444 01:11:34,680 --> 01:11:37,840 Speaker 13: all the benefits that come with the different products and 1445 01:11:38,280 --> 01:11:40,599 Speaker 13: loans that you're getting, and get some really good advice 1446 01:11:40,680 --> 01:11:43,200 Speaker 13: and you'll get some good outcomes from that going down 1447 01:11:43,240 --> 01:11:44,120 Speaker 13: that pathway as well. 1448 01:11:44,520 --> 01:11:47,040 Speaker 3: How is the sentiment in your industry at the moment. 1449 01:11:47,240 --> 01:11:50,519 Speaker 3: How are mortgage advisors feeling about this economic moment? 1450 01:11:51,880 --> 01:11:54,599 Speaker 13: Well, it's tough. Everyone's doing it tough. So we've got 1451 01:11:54,640 --> 01:11:57,400 Speaker 13: homeowners doing it tough with high interst rates, business people, 1452 01:11:57,520 --> 01:12:01,160 Speaker 13: business owners, which most mortgage advisors clearly, So everyone is 1453 01:12:01,240 --> 01:12:03,080 Speaker 13: doing it a little bit tough, and we're just really 1454 01:12:03,160 --> 01:12:06,800 Speaker 13: looking for some positive signs. And I think we are 1455 01:12:06,880 --> 01:12:08,439 Speaker 13: seeing a light at the end of the tunnel, and 1456 01:12:08,479 --> 01:12:10,519 Speaker 13: I think the sentiment will come in and kick in 1457 01:12:10,600 --> 01:12:13,639 Speaker 13: really quickly once we see a reduction in interest rates, 1458 01:12:13,720 --> 01:12:15,760 Speaker 13: even if it's a small one to start with, I 1459 01:12:15,800 --> 01:12:18,120 Speaker 13: think it will just give the consumers confidence in New 1460 01:12:18,200 --> 01:12:21,360 Speaker 13: Zealand a little bit of a breast to take to 1461 01:12:21,479 --> 01:12:23,040 Speaker 13: move ahead and spend a bit more money and be 1462 01:12:23,120 --> 01:12:25,120 Speaker 13: more comfortable and be able to afford the things that 1463 01:12:25,160 --> 01:12:27,599 Speaker 13: we all are struggling to it at the moment. 1464 01:12:27,680 --> 01:12:31,360 Speaker 3: Unfortunately, yeah, I mean we have seen house sales, you know, 1465 01:12:31,560 --> 01:12:36,679 Speaker 3: really significantly drop compared to the rate of sales during 1466 01:12:36,800 --> 01:12:41,400 Speaker 3: more prosperous times. So when there happens, does that directly 1467 01:12:41,439 --> 01:12:44,760 Speaker 3: affect your industry? And that do fewer house sales mean 1468 01:12:45,120 --> 01:12:47,280 Speaker 3: that mortgage advisors go through a much tougher time. 1469 01:12:48,640 --> 01:12:50,960 Speaker 13: Look, they can do, but in the times where they're 1470 01:12:51,000 --> 01:12:54,000 Speaker 13: not writing as much business or helping as many kinds 1471 01:12:54,120 --> 01:12:57,400 Speaker 13: with buying new properties, they're helping people refix, They're helping 1472 01:12:57,479 --> 01:13:01,080 Speaker 13: people work out how they can afford them mortgages, looking 1473 01:13:01,120 --> 01:13:04,320 Speaker 13: at different interest rate opportunities. They're spending a lot of 1474 01:13:04,360 --> 01:13:07,080 Speaker 13: time helping out people and giving people advice. So they're very, 1475 01:13:07,160 --> 01:13:10,479 Speaker 13: very busy at the moment. It may not be new lending, 1476 01:13:10,560 --> 01:13:14,679 Speaker 13: but they're certainly they're looking after their customers and trying 1477 01:13:14,720 --> 01:13:16,400 Speaker 13: to get good outcomes for them so that they can 1478 01:13:16,439 --> 01:13:18,839 Speaker 13: afford and keep the houses. And that's the most important 1479 01:13:18,840 --> 01:13:20,960 Speaker 13: thing of keeping keyweeds in their houses. 1480 01:13:21,080 --> 01:13:21,200 Speaker 12: Right. 1481 01:13:22,000 --> 01:13:26,360 Speaker 3: So, when the Reserve Bank does start cutting rates, how 1482 01:13:26,439 --> 01:13:29,679 Speaker 3: long is that relief likely to filter through to mortgage holders, 1483 01:13:29,720 --> 01:13:31,439 Speaker 3: because a lot of people will be locked in to 1484 01:13:31,560 --> 01:13:34,280 Speaker 3: mortgages that extend beyond that first cut. 1485 01:13:34,360 --> 01:13:36,960 Speaker 13: Yeah, yeah, So, I mean a lot of people have 1486 01:13:37,080 --> 01:13:40,720 Speaker 13: been factoring in even over the last the most part 1487 01:13:40,760 --> 01:13:42,920 Speaker 13: of this year and even early last year, just taking 1488 01:13:42,960 --> 01:13:45,680 Speaker 13: the six or twelve months six s raight. Not many 1489 01:13:45,720 --> 01:13:47,320 Speaker 13: people are brave enough to be sitting out there on 1490 01:13:47,479 --> 01:13:50,439 Speaker 13: variable rates, we found, but we'll find a lot of 1491 01:13:50,479 --> 01:13:52,400 Speaker 13: people are have factored that in. It will be coming 1492 01:13:52,439 --> 01:13:54,760 Speaker 13: off their fixed straight loans towards the end of the year. 1493 01:13:55,160 --> 01:13:57,600 Speaker 13: So with a bit of good advice, you might be 1494 01:13:57,640 --> 01:14:01,160 Speaker 13: able to just work that through and then roll over 1495 01:14:01,240 --> 01:14:03,880 Speaker 13: into a lower rate again. So most of people have 1496 01:14:04,000 --> 01:14:06,280 Speaker 13: come off their very very low rates that they were 1497 01:14:06,320 --> 01:14:09,800 Speaker 13: fixed on over the last few years. So I think 1498 01:14:09,840 --> 01:14:12,280 Speaker 13: a lot of people have been factoring this. Then they've 1499 01:14:12,320 --> 01:14:15,559 Speaker 13: had some advice up, they've been they've wrapped their head 1500 01:14:15,560 --> 01:14:18,759 Speaker 13: around it because we've all had to and yeah, looking 1501 01:14:18,800 --> 01:14:20,880 Speaker 13: forward to that bit of a decline in the interest 1502 01:14:20,920 --> 01:14:22,360 Speaker 13: rates and making it more affordable. 1503 01:14:22,800 --> 01:14:25,439 Speaker 3: Right, Okay, So is there a kind of orthodoxy when 1504 01:14:25,520 --> 01:14:28,680 Speaker 3: it comes to refixing your mortgage in this kind of 1505 01:14:28,720 --> 01:14:32,840 Speaker 3: economic environment, because over the last a few years, a 1506 01:14:32,920 --> 01:14:35,040 Speaker 3: lot more key we have chosen to split up their 1507 01:14:35,120 --> 01:14:36,840 Speaker 3: mortgage than perhaps they did in the past. 1508 01:14:37,840 --> 01:14:38,040 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1509 01:14:38,160 --> 01:14:41,080 Speaker 13: True, true. So that's a really good a good point. So, 1510 01:14:41,760 --> 01:14:43,719 Speaker 13: I mean I can talk to that I have about 1511 01:14:44,000 --> 01:14:47,600 Speaker 13: three different mortgages all on the one house, but I 1512 01:14:47,720 --> 01:14:50,600 Speaker 13: fixed the rates over different periods of time. They may 1513 01:14:50,640 --> 01:14:53,720 Speaker 13: have been for a renovation or something else that I've done. 1514 01:14:53,760 --> 01:14:56,760 Speaker 13: But I also make sure that you just you shop around, 1515 01:14:56,800 --> 01:14:58,320 Speaker 13: you look at the interest rates. I've got a great 1516 01:14:58,360 --> 01:15:00,759 Speaker 13: mortgage advisor too, by the way, so that super helpful. 1517 01:15:01,200 --> 01:15:03,840 Speaker 13: But I you just you look at what suits you 1518 01:15:03,960 --> 01:15:05,720 Speaker 13: the best. But there's always options. You don't have to 1519 01:15:05,760 --> 01:15:08,280 Speaker 13: be at one bank and have one loan flips in 1520 01:15:08,280 --> 01:15:11,040 Speaker 13: at one rate. You've got the opportunity to stagger it 1521 01:15:11,080 --> 01:15:13,519 Speaker 13: a little bit, which helps you when things come off 1522 01:15:13,720 --> 01:15:16,400 Speaker 13: or go up. So it's very good strategy. 1523 01:15:16,560 --> 01:15:18,759 Speaker 3: Ah, very good. Hey, thanks so much, Lee, I appreciate 1524 01:15:18,800 --> 01:15:21,759 Speaker 3: your time.

So banks, utilities, media companies across the 1528 01:15:31,800 --> 01:15:35,719 Speaker 3: world have been impacted by this. The issue is reported 1529 01:15:35,760 --> 01:15:39,040 Speaker 3: to be linked to an update by cybersecurity company crowd Strike. 1530 01:15:39,240 --> 01:15:44,160 Speaker 3: Crowd Strike says it quote engineering teams are actively working 1531 01:15:44,240 --> 01:15:48,920 Speaker 3: to resolve the issue. Unquote. Experts are saying CrowdStrike servers 1532 01:15:48,960 --> 01:15:54,000 Speaker 3: are down and facing a BSoD era BSoD come on, 1533 01:15:54,120 --> 01:15:59,320 Speaker 3: what's that an acronym for BSoD Blue screen of death. 1534 01:16:00,040 --> 01:16:02,840 Speaker 3: That essentially means that the system isn't rebooting correctly, but 1535 01:16:02,880 --> 01:16:05,200 Speaker 3: it looks like it is affecting all manner of businesses 1536 01:16:05,280 --> 01:16:07,400 Speaker 3: and digital services. I've got a text here saying Jack 1537 01:16:07,520 --> 01:16:10,479 Speaker 3: at TAG and tag off terminals not working in Auckland. 1538 01:16:10,520 --> 01:16:13,200 Speaker 3: People can't use their cards to swipe in and out 1539 01:16:13,200 --> 01:16:15,720 Speaker 3: when they're using public transport.

I'm 1548 01:16:38,000 --> 01:16:39,240 Speaker 3: pleased to hear it. Got to say, this is a 1549 01:16:39,320 --> 01:16:44,160 Speaker 3: great advertisement for not relying solely on digital currency, isn't it? Anyway? 1550 01:16:44,200 --> 01:16:46,000 Speaker 3: We'll bring you the latest on this outage as we 1551 01:16:46,080 --> 01:16:48,519 Speaker 3: get more information. Time now to catch up with news talks, 1552 01:16:48,520 --> 01:16:51,920 Speaker 3: he'd be Political editor Jason Wall to wrap the political week. 1553 01:16:51,960 --> 01:16:54,400 Speaker 3: And Jason, it has been the week of Darlene Tana, 1554 01:16:54,479 --> 01:16:55,360 Speaker 3: So what happens next? 1555 01:16:55,840 --> 01:16:57,920 Speaker 6: Indeed the week of Darli and Tana that is. 1556 01:16:58,080 --> 01:17:00,280 Speaker 14: She of course started the week with that interview with 1557 01:17:00,800 --> 01:17:03,840 Speaker 14: One News where she basically threw down the Gordon Lin 1558 01:17:03,920 --> 01:17:06,400 Speaker 14: said that she was still considering her options when it 1559 01:17:06,520 --> 01:17:09,080 Speaker 14: came to staying in parliament and how she was the 1560 01:17:09,160 --> 01:17:13,040 Speaker 14: only one here that could blend Tilmari, politics and science 1561 01:17:13,080 --> 01:17:15,400 Speaker 14: all together, so it very much sounded like she was staying. 1562 01:17:15,720 --> 01:17:17,640 Speaker 14: And then of course where she said that she had 1563 01:17:18,160 --> 01:17:19,800 Speaker 14: talked to the Clerk of the House about where she 1564 01:17:19,920 --> 01:17:22,920 Speaker 14: could stay in parliament if she was an independent, it 1565 01:17:23,040 --> 01:17:26,120 Speaker 14: very much sounds like she's not going anywhere with this one. 1566 01:17:26,200 --> 01:17:27,680 Speaker 14: And of course we got the news this week that 1567 01:17:27,760 --> 01:17:30,280 Speaker 14: her husband's company, which was at the center of these 1568 01:17:30,280 --> 01:17:35,040 Speaker 14: allegations around migrant exploitation, had indeed gone into liquidation, basically 1569 01:17:35,160 --> 01:17:37,880 Speaker 14: proving that that old adage all press is good press 1570 01:17:38,040 --> 01:17:40,560 Speaker 14: not quite the case in this time round. So we 1571 01:17:40,640 --> 01:17:43,479 Speaker 14: will get more of an we'll get more information on 1572 01:17:43,600 --> 01:17:47,280 Speaker 14: this on Tuesday when Parliament starts sitting, so we're likely 1573 01:17:47,400 --> 01:17:51,719 Speaker 14: to see if darleyn Tana comes into the debating chamber 1574 01:17:51,800 --> 01:17:54,519 Speaker 14: and where she sits and where if she has any 1575 01:17:54,600 --> 01:17:57,639 Speaker 14: sort of involvement or any sort of deal with Tipati Marii. 1576 01:17:57,720 --> 01:18:00,240 Speaker 14: We know this has happened before with Mika fighting and 1577 01:18:00,320 --> 01:18:03,439 Speaker 14: it's not completely out of the question. It's something that 1578 01:18:03,560 --> 01:18:06,720 Speaker 14: the Deputy Prime Minister Winston Peters has raised as a 1579 01:18:06,800 --> 01:18:09,320 Speaker 14: prospect as well. So we'll be watching that with great 1580 01:18:09,400 --> 01:18:11,760 Speaker 14: interest to see where that gets to a. 1581 01:18:11,800 --> 01:18:16,000 Speaker 3: Lot of very happy government ministers as inflation rates dropped, 1582 01:18:16,240 --> 01:18:18,400 Speaker 3: some maybe got a little bit ahead of themselves. 1583 01:18:18,840 --> 01:18:22,519 Speaker 14: Yes, indeed too actually quite important government ministers when it 1584 01:18:22,560 --> 01:18:26,320 Speaker 14: comes to the old bean counting. The Associate Finance Ministers 1585 01:18:26,400 --> 01:18:31,000 Speaker 14: David Seymour and Shane Goldens both actually basically came as 1586 01:18:31,040 --> 01:18:34,840 Speaker 14: close to giving the Reserve Bank direction as you could 1587 01:18:34,880 --> 01:18:37,519 Speaker 14: possibly come. I mean, I would argue that Shane Johns 1588 01:18:37,560 --> 01:18:39,960 Speaker 14: even crossed the line where he said basically that it's 1589 01:18:40,000 --> 01:18:42,720 Speaker 14: time for the Reserve Bank to start cutting rates, and 1590 01:18:42,800 --> 01:18:46,120 Speaker 14: David Seymour said that relief is required, which technically you're 1591 01:18:46,160 --> 01:18:48,360 Speaker 14: not allowed to do as a government minister, and many, 1592 01:18:48,720 --> 01:18:51,320 Speaker 14: especially Nikola Willis, has been tiptoeing around it but has 1593 01:18:51,400 --> 01:18:54,120 Speaker 14: never actually come close. So they'll be very happy to 1594 01:18:54,200 --> 01:18:58,040 Speaker 14: see this three point three percent inflation reading. And of 1595 01:18:58,080 --> 01:19:00,240 Speaker 14: course we had Capital Economics which was the first first 1596 01:19:00,240 --> 01:19:02,479 Speaker 14: economic firm to come out and say that they think 1597 01:19:02,520 --> 01:19:04,799 Speaker 14: the Reserve Bank is going to cut rates in August. 1598 01:19:04,880 --> 01:19:07,160 Speaker 14: A lot of the other retail banks are still saying 1599 01:19:07,200 --> 01:19:10,040 Speaker 14: that it's probably towards the end of the year, probably 1600 01:19:10,439 --> 01:19:12,600 Speaker 14: more likely to be November, but we do know with 1601 01:19:12,720 --> 01:19:14,920 Speaker 14: monetary policy, and makes it a heck of a lot 1602 01:19:15,000 --> 01:19:18,320 Speaker 14: easier to govern when mortgage rates are cheaper and money 1603 01:19:18,400 --> 01:19:20,760 Speaker 14: is cheaper, So they'll be crossing their fingers, toes and 1604 01:19:20,800 --> 01:19:23,639 Speaker 14: everything in between that Adrian or finally pulls the trigger 1605 01:19:23,680 --> 01:19:24,080 Speaker 14: on this one. 1606 01:19:24,439 --> 01:19:24,639 Speaker 9: Yeah. 1607 01:19:24,760 --> 01:19:26,559 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's going to be really intriguing a to see 1608 01:19:26,600 --> 01:19:28,679 Speaker 3: how that plays out over the next couple of months. 1609 01:19:28,840 --> 01:19:30,800 Speaker 3: Far Mack has been in the headlines as well as 1610 01:19:30,920 --> 01:19:33,000 Speaker 3: has an unapologetic David Seymour. 1611 01:19:33,200 --> 01:19:36,639 Speaker 14: Why is that unapologetic? Indeed, it started the week where 1612 01:19:36,680 --> 01:19:38,840 Speaker 14: the start of the week, it was actually midway through 1613 01:19:38,920 --> 01:19:41,799 Speaker 14: the week where he said that he had instructed FARMAC 1614 01:19:41,880 --> 01:19:44,880 Speaker 14: to remove its focus on the Treaty of Waitangi when 1615 01:19:44,920 --> 01:19:48,080 Speaker 14: it came to distributing its medicines, and it's the focus 1616 01:19:48,120 --> 01:19:50,800 Speaker 14: of what it does as an organization. This of course 1617 01:19:51,240 --> 01:19:53,320 Speaker 14: caught the irk of many a people, and of course 1618 01:19:53,720 --> 01:19:57,120 Speaker 14: one of them is Anthony Jordan, who was a board member, 1619 01:19:57,280 --> 01:20:00,880 Speaker 14: but he has since resigned, citing this decision to remove 1620 01:20:00,920 --> 01:20:03,920 Speaker 14: its focus as one of the main reasons behind that 1621 01:20:04,080 --> 01:20:06,799 Speaker 14: that he's resigned. Immediately when I spoke to David Seymour 1622 01:20:06,920 --> 01:20:09,639 Speaker 14: just before, he said that you know, maybe if you're 1623 01:20:09,680 --> 01:20:14,000 Speaker 14: somebody like mister or doctor Jordan, and this is your perspective, 1624 01:20:14,120 --> 01:20:16,519 Speaker 14: it's maybe it's good that you're not there anymore. And 1625 01:20:16,640 --> 01:20:19,000 Speaker 14: he kind of threw down the gauntlet a lot of 1626 01:20:19,280 --> 01:20:22,439 Speaker 14: Gauton lit throwing this week Jack to anybody else on 1627 01:20:22,520 --> 01:20:24,240 Speaker 14: that board that said, if you think the same way, 1628 01:20:24,800 --> 01:20:27,479 Speaker 14: maybe it's time that you leave as well. But Anthony Jordan, 1629 01:20:27,560 --> 01:20:30,679 Speaker 14: he pointed out, was a labor appointee on that board, 1630 01:20:30,800 --> 01:20:34,760 Speaker 14: is also the partner of Shannon Helbert, who's a labor MP. 1631 01:20:35,040 --> 01:20:37,800 Speaker 14: So it's not really any surprise that he's leaving. He 1632 01:20:37,880 --> 01:20:39,800 Speaker 14: was meant to leave in December anyway, and this is 1633 01:20:39,960 --> 01:20:42,439 Speaker 14: just sort of an impetus for him to go earlier, 1634 01:20:42,479 --> 01:20:42,760 Speaker 14: I think. 1635 01:20:43,160 --> 01:20:46,080 Speaker 3: And how has the attempted assassination of Donald Trump been 1636 01:20:46,080 --> 01:20:46,719 Speaker 3: felt here. 1637 01:20:47,200 --> 01:20:50,360 Speaker 14: Oh, in every crevice of New Zealand politics. I mean, 1638 01:20:50,400 --> 01:20:52,280 Speaker 14: it's a story that you can't get away from. And 1639 01:20:52,360 --> 01:20:55,439 Speaker 14: of course we had Donald Trump give his speech at 1640 01:20:55,479 --> 01:20:58,840 Speaker 14: the Republican Convention today, a very very long speech it was, 1641 01:20:59,479 --> 01:21:03,360 Speaker 14: which has been covered worldwide over on those news outlets 1642 01:21:03,400 --> 01:21:06,280 Speaker 14: that can actually still report the news because of this 1643 01:21:06,400 --> 01:21:08,800 Speaker 14: outage going on at the moment. But we've had all 1644 01:21:08,880 --> 01:21:11,360 Speaker 14: political parties from New Zealand coming out and saying, you know, 1645 01:21:11,479 --> 01:21:14,000 Speaker 14: condemning violence in any forms. And again, coming back to 1646 01:21:14,120 --> 01:21:16,679 Speaker 14: David Seymour, when I was talking to him just before, 1647 01:21:16,840 --> 01:21:21,680 Speaker 14: I asked him who he thought should be the nominee 1648 01:21:21,920 --> 01:21:25,960 Speaker 14: for thepert or just basically who his pick was, and 1649 01:21:26,120 --> 01:21:28,400 Speaker 14: he came out and said, listen, Michelle Obama, which is 1650 01:21:28,479 --> 01:21:31,000 Speaker 14: something that I just didn't pick at all. He thought 1651 01:21:31,040 --> 01:21:32,760 Speaker 14: that she would be the one. So it would be 1652 01:21:32,800 --> 01:21:36,360 Speaker 14: interesting to see if Biden does step down, she steps up. 1653 01:21:36,520 --> 01:21:38,479 Speaker 3: This time next week, I reckon we'll be talking about 1654 01:21:38,479 --> 01:21:40,400 Speaker 3: the contest for the next candidate. Thank you so much, 1655 01:21:40,479 --> 01:21:43,080 Speaker 3: Jason Jason Wall's news Talks.

So Jazz has 1663 01:22:06,080 --> 01:22:08,439 Speaker 3: obviously gone to started at one and gone to the 1664 01:22:08,520 --> 01:22:11,320 Speaker 3: other hoping to get f pause. I mean, this is 1665 01:22:11,400 --> 01:22:14,479 Speaker 3: I'm serious. This is a really kind of important lesson, 1666 01:22:14,560 --> 01:22:18,080 Speaker 3: isn't it about an over reliance the dangers of an 1667 01:22:18,120 --> 01:22:21,000 Speaker 3: overreliance on digital currencies in the future. I'm someone who 1668 01:22:21,200 --> 01:22:24,519 Speaker 3: never carries cash, never carries cash. This time tomorrow I 1669 01:22:24,520 --> 01:22:27,200 Speaker 3: could be getting pretty desperate, though, depending on the scale 1670 01:22:27,240 --> 01:22:29,920 Speaker 3: of this outage. We'll bring you more details of that 1671 01:22:30,400 --> 01:22:34,000 Speaker 3: very shortly. There's more information comes into our newsroom before 1672 01:22:34,040 --> 01:22:36,200 Speaker 3: seven o'clock. We'll take you to Asia as well. Donald 1673 01:22:36,200 --> 01:22:39,040 Speaker 3: Trump has made some really interesting comments about Taiwan. In 1674 01:22:39,160 --> 01:22:42,120 Speaker 3: a nutshell, he reckons Taiwan should be paying the US 1675 01:22:42,240 --> 01:22:45,920 Speaker 3: for its defense. I mean that really feels like that 1676 01:22:46,040 --> 01:22:49,639 Speaker 3: could be an extremely tense issue to say the least. 1677 01:22:50,520 --> 01:22:53,719 Speaker 3: And if he were to become the president in November 1678 01:22:54,360 --> 01:22:56,599 Speaker 3: sworn in next year, yeah, that could be a massive 1679 01:22:56,600 --> 01:22:58,360 Speaker 3: issue for Taiwan. So we'll tell you more about that. 1680 01:22:58,680 --> 01:23:05,560 Speaker 19: News is next, whether it's macro, micro or just plain economics. 1681 01:23:05,680 --> 01:23:08,840 Speaker 2: It's all on the Business Hour with Jack Tam and 1682 01:23:09,240 --> 01:23:12,880 Speaker 2: my HR, the HR platform for sme US talks. 1683 01:23:12,600 --> 01:23:18,920 Speaker 3: A b Well, well, I think we've solved it this evening. 1684 01:23:20,280 --> 01:23:23,360 Speaker 3: Not the outage, unfortunately, they're still working on that. Will 1685 01:23:23,360 --> 01:23:27,439 Speaker 3: tell you what bad day for CrowdStrike. I was just 1686 01:23:27,479 --> 01:23:30,120 Speaker 3: telling Laura once upon a time I did a very 1687 01:23:30,160 --> 01:23:32,439 Speaker 3: small number of shares and CrowdStrike, and I feel like 1688 01:23:32,479 --> 01:23:34,280 Speaker 3: today's a good day not to be holding those shares. 1689 01:23:35,720 --> 01:23:38,000 Speaker 3: We haven't sold the artage unfortunately. What we have solved 1690 01:23:38,200 --> 01:23:42,479 Speaker 3: is the participation crisis and local democracy. So as of 1691 01:23:42,600 --> 01:23:46,680 Speaker 3: Wednesday this week, only twenty three percent of voters in 1692 01:23:46,760 --> 01:23:51,120 Speaker 3: Todunger had cast a ballot for Todunger's local body elections 1693 01:23:51,200 --> 01:23:53,519 Speaker 3: this weekend. Hopefully it's a little bit higher now. Of 1694 01:23:53,600 --> 01:23:58,360 Speaker 3: course that election wraps up tomorrow. However, they reckon in 1695 01:23:58,400 --> 01:24:02,640 Speaker 3: the Horizons region. I've had a huge response already for 1696 01:24:02,760 --> 01:24:05,040 Speaker 3: the survey they are holding about whether or not music 1697 01:24:05,120 --> 01:24:08,559 Speaker 3: should be played on the bus. This is for huangan 1698 01:24:08,640 --> 01:24:13,200 Speaker 3: Nui and Fielding, Palmstan North, Jack, no music on the bus, 1699 01:24:13,320 --> 01:24:18,320 Speaker 3: please please leave passengers to listen to their own devices. Also, Jack, 1700 01:24:18,360 --> 01:24:20,799 Speaker 3: when was the last time you were on a bus? Actually? 1701 01:24:20,880 --> 01:24:24,200 Speaker 3: I did catch the bus reasonably often, to be perfectly honest, 1702 01:24:24,720 --> 01:24:26,320 Speaker 3: ride my bike most of the time, but do catch 1703 01:24:26,360 --> 01:24:30,519 Speaker 3: the bus reasonably often. Drive to work in the rain today. Yeah, 1704 01:24:30,520 --> 01:24:32,400 Speaker 3: I was going to say, answer the question, Jack, Yeah, 1705 01:24:32,400 --> 01:24:33,080 Speaker 3: well I got there. 1706 01:24:33,120 --> 01:24:33,519 Speaker 1: I got there. 1707 01:24:35,720 --> 01:24:39,600 Speaker 3: I reckon it would have been last month. Okay, So 1708 01:24:39,720 --> 01:24:41,760 Speaker 3: that's not too bad, is it. Yeah, Yeah, yeah, yeah, 1709 01:24:42,120 --> 01:24:45,639 Speaker 3: it's not. I think it's They're definitely worse. It's certainly 1710 01:24:46,120 --> 01:24:48,840 Speaker 3: more regularly than my wife does. She's not a big 1711 01:24:49,000 --> 01:24:52,880 Speaker 3: fan of running on the bus. The thing is, I 1712 01:24:52,960 --> 01:24:54,640 Speaker 3: reckon that listening to music on the bus is very 1713 01:24:54,640 --> 01:24:58,240 Speaker 3: different to having a phone conversation on the bus. It's funny, 1714 01:24:58,280 --> 01:24:59,840 Speaker 3: I reckon, two people are talking to each other on 1715 01:24:59,880 --> 01:25:01,640 Speaker 3: the that's fine. But if someone was talking on the 1716 01:25:01,760 --> 01:25:04,759 Speaker 3: phone for some reason, I find it really irritating. Anyway, 1717 01:25:05,600 --> 01:25:07,360 Speaker 3: ninety two is our Ticks number. If you've got some 1718 01:25:07,479 --> 01:25:09,960 Speaker 3: thoughts the saving. Right now, it is twenty three to 1719 01:25:10,040 --> 01:25:13,400 Speaker 3: seven and time to catch up with our Asia Business 1720 01:25:13,439 --> 01:25:16,559 Speaker 3: correspondent Peter Lewis, who is with this evening. 1721 01:25:16,640 --> 01:25:18,880 Speaker 1: Hi, Peter, Good Evening, Jack. 1722 01:25:19,240 --> 01:25:22,920 Speaker 3: Donald Trump reckons that Taiwan should be paying the US 1723 01:25:23,040 --> 01:25:25,920 Speaker 3: for its defense, as explained to Bloomberg. So what's he 1724 01:25:25,960 --> 01:25:26,439 Speaker 3: here to say? 1725 01:25:27,840 --> 01:25:30,320 Speaker 25: Well, yes, this was a Bloomberg interview that was done 1726 01:25:30,360 --> 01:25:33,120 Speaker 25: about a month or so ago, but only released last 1727 01:25:33,240 --> 01:25:37,439 Speaker 25: week in time for the Republican National Convention. He's basically 1728 01:25:37,560 --> 01:25:39,880 Speaker 25: what he said in this interview was he knows the 1729 01:25:39,920 --> 01:25:43,240 Speaker 25: people of Taiwan very well. He claims he respects them gratefully, 1730 01:25:43,640 --> 01:25:45,719 Speaker 25: but he says, first of all, they took one hundred 1731 01:25:45,760 --> 01:25:49,160 Speaker 25: percent of our chip business. And then he says, I 1732 01:25:49,240 --> 01:25:53,560 Speaker 25: think Taiwan should pay US for defense. Now I'm not 1733 01:25:53,880 --> 01:25:57,960 Speaker 25: totally sure what is actually means by that, because Taiwan 1734 01:25:58,080 --> 01:26:02,120 Speaker 25: already does pay for its defense. All the arms that 1735 01:26:02,200 --> 01:26:05,800 Speaker 25: it buys it pays for. It doesn't get them for free. 1736 01:26:05,880 --> 01:26:09,439 Speaker 25: And what's more, it buys nearly all of it from 1737 01:26:09,520 --> 01:26:15,160 Speaker 25: the United States under government negotiated military sales agreements. But nevertheless, 1738 01:26:15,200 --> 01:26:19,679 Speaker 25: it makes Taiwan one of the largest markets for American 1739 01:26:19,760 --> 01:26:23,880 Speaker 25: defense companies and arms manufacturers, so it is already paying 1740 01:26:24,880 --> 01:26:29,000 Speaker 25: a lot of money to the United States. Now on 1741 01:26:29,040 --> 01:26:31,719 Speaker 25: the point he makes about Taiwan taking one hundred percent 1742 01:26:31,760 --> 01:26:35,880 Speaker 25: of our chip business, as we're obviously referring to Taiwan's 1743 01:26:35,880 --> 01:26:40,839 Speaker 25: semiconductor manufacturing company, which is the world's biggest chip foundry. 1744 01:26:42,080 --> 01:26:44,520 Speaker 25: It's hard to say, though, in the case of TSMC, 1745 01:26:44,760 --> 01:26:48,679 Speaker 25: that they've somehow stolen America's chip business. It is true 1746 01:26:48,760 --> 01:26:52,560 Speaker 25: that companies like Intel, for example, he used to be 1747 01:26:52,680 --> 01:26:57,679 Speaker 25: the world's dominant force in semiconductor manufacturing, and it's also 1748 01:26:57,840 --> 01:27:02,440 Speaker 25: true that that's been overtaken I firms like Samson Electronics 1749 01:27:02,479 --> 01:27:05,519 Speaker 25: in South Korea and TSMC in Taiwan. But that has 1750 01:27:05,680 --> 01:27:11,000 Speaker 25: happened because TSMC has made huge investments into the business. 1751 01:27:11,360 --> 01:27:13,920 Speaker 25: It's plowed a lot of money, a lot of resources 1752 01:27:13,960 --> 01:27:17,200 Speaker 25: into it, taking big risks in the process. But nevertheless, 1753 01:27:17,240 --> 01:27:21,479 Speaker 25: in particular has built up in the ai space. It 1754 01:27:21,600 --> 01:27:25,320 Speaker 25: has very very well managed plants and factories which are 1755 01:27:25,360 --> 01:27:30,920 Speaker 25: regarded as producing extremely high quality products and producing them 1756 01:27:31,520 --> 01:27:35,600 Speaker 25: on time. So this is down to Taiwan's investment in 1757 01:27:35,680 --> 01:27:41,120 Speaker 25: its business and companies like TSMC. Companies like Intel have 1758 01:27:41,320 --> 01:27:44,400 Speaker 25: really fallen behind, particularly in the AI space. They really 1759 01:27:45,280 --> 01:27:49,240 Speaker 25: have anticipated the growth in that particular sector at all, 1760 01:27:50,040 --> 01:27:53,519 Speaker 25: unlike some of the Asian chip manufact factorers. But that's 1761 01:27:53,600 --> 01:27:58,800 Speaker 25: not really Taiwan's stealing or taking one hundred percent of 1762 01:27:58,880 --> 01:28:02,040 Speaker 25: America's chip business, as Donald Trump likes to claim. 1763 01:28:02,280 --> 01:28:05,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, tricking. It would be fascinating to see what happens 1764 01:28:06,520 --> 01:28:08,640 Speaker 3: in the early months of next year if indeed he 1765 01:28:08,800 --> 01:28:11,920 Speaker 3: is the next president. Peter the third Plinam and China 1766 01:28:12,000 --> 01:28:13,759 Speaker 3: this week in security was a major focus. 1767 01:28:15,000 --> 01:28:21,240 Speaker 25: It was indeed, they talked very much about protecting national security. 1768 01:28:21,400 --> 01:28:25,160 Speaker 25: That's been a top priority for a while. But also 1769 01:28:25,680 --> 01:28:28,680 Speaker 25: it seems to me that it sort of takes presidents 1770 01:28:29,400 --> 01:28:32,520 Speaker 25: over the economy, that if there's a choice between initiatives 1771 01:28:32,560 --> 01:28:36,040 Speaker 25: that are going to protect national security are going to 1772 01:28:36,120 --> 01:28:39,120 Speaker 25: boost the economy, even though they say they're equal, I 1773 01:28:39,240 --> 01:28:44,639 Speaker 25: suspect that national security will win. The communicate that came 1774 01:28:44,680 --> 01:28:49,240 Speaker 25: out yesterday warned very much about geopolitical risks. It says 1775 01:28:49,400 --> 01:28:54,360 Speaker 25: China should lead global governance. I presume that means creating 1776 01:28:54,439 --> 01:29:00,840 Speaker 25: alternative organizations to some of the Western dominated institutions. They 1777 01:29:00,960 --> 01:29:04,519 Speaker 25: talked about balancing economic development with security, but as I say, 1778 01:29:04,560 --> 01:29:07,200 Speaker 25: I rather suspect security is very much going to be 1779 01:29:07,240 --> 01:29:10,599 Speaker 25: at the forefront of their minds. What I found more 1780 01:29:10,680 --> 01:29:14,680 Speaker 25: alarming was they wanted to talk about, first of all, 1781 01:29:14,760 --> 01:29:17,519 Speaker 25: creating a socialist modern power. I'm not sure what they 1782 01:29:17,680 --> 01:29:22,640 Speaker 25: meant by that. They didn't exactly say, but they were 1783 01:29:22,720 --> 01:29:28,719 Speaker 25: talking very much about coordinating, implementing various measures to prevent 1784 01:29:28,840 --> 01:29:31,680 Speaker 25: and resolved risks. And they want to weave what they 1785 01:29:31,760 --> 01:29:37,559 Speaker 25: say is a dense social security risk prevention and control 1786 01:29:37,720 --> 01:29:42,960 Speaker 25: network and maintain social stability. And also they say they 1787 01:29:43,080 --> 01:29:46,479 Speaker 25: want to step up state propaganda. They say it's necessary 1788 01:29:46,560 --> 01:29:50,879 Speaker 25: to strengthen public opinion guidance. Now this sounds rather alarming 1789 01:29:51,000 --> 01:29:54,640 Speaker 25: to me. This sounds like a lot more internal controls. 1790 01:29:54,960 --> 01:29:58,760 Speaker 25: As we know, the Communist Party under Jijipin wants to 1791 01:29:58,840 --> 01:30:02,960 Speaker 25: control everything, every aspect of life in China, whether it 1792 01:30:03,040 --> 01:30:06,360 Speaker 25: be economic, whether it be business, whether it be social, 1793 01:30:06,479 --> 01:30:09,639 Speaker 25: whether it be aspects of your personal life. They very 1794 01:30:09,680 --> 01:30:14,639 Speaker 25: much control social media. They cramp down on dissent very 1795 01:30:15,439 --> 01:30:18,040 Speaker 25: very harshly. It seems to me that some of those 1796 01:30:18,120 --> 01:30:22,800 Speaker 25: statements warning and more coming along those lines and really 1797 01:30:22,880 --> 01:30:26,960 Speaker 25: trying to indoctrinate people's thinking and even key issues like 1798 01:30:27,040 --> 01:30:30,080 Speaker 25: the economy. They feel, you know, that people are bad 1799 01:30:30,240 --> 01:30:32,599 Speaker 25: mouthing the economy and that people should be much more 1800 01:30:33,320 --> 01:30:37,559 Speaker 25: positive and supportive about what they're doing on the economic front. 1801 01:30:38,160 --> 01:30:42,280 Speaker 3: Speaking of the economy public secti versus private sector, is 1802 01:30:42,320 --> 01:30:45,439 Speaker 3: there any indication the Chinese leadership wants to scale back 1803 01:30:45,520 --> 01:30:46,920 Speaker 3: investment in the public sector. 1804 01:30:48,320 --> 01:30:51,960 Speaker 25: Well, they talk all the time about being business friendly 1805 01:30:52,280 --> 01:30:58,000 Speaker 25: and the important of private companies. However, the rhetoric is 1806 01:30:58,160 --> 01:30:59,720 Speaker 25: not really matched. 1807 01:30:59,840 --> 01:31:00,759 Speaker 9: By the actions. 1808 01:31:00,880 --> 01:31:03,120 Speaker 25: When you look at the actions, it seems very clear 1809 01:31:03,200 --> 01:31:08,840 Speaker 25: to me that the big state owned enterprises do get 1810 01:31:09,160 --> 01:31:12,599 Speaker 25: preferential treatments by local governments and by the central government 1811 01:31:13,200 --> 01:31:16,160 Speaker 25: in Beijing. You only have to look at the economic 1812 01:31:16,280 --> 01:31:19,680 Speaker 25: data we had. The data for fixed as investment came 1813 01:31:19,720 --> 01:31:24,840 Speaker 25: out on Monday. Well, private companies invested just zero point 1814 01:31:24,960 --> 01:31:28,280 Speaker 25: one percent. Oh, it grew private investment just by zero 1815 01:31:28,280 --> 01:31:30,400 Speaker 25: point one percent in the first half of the year. 1816 01:31:30,720 --> 01:31:34,200 Speaker 25: Public investment, in other words, through state owned enterprises grew 1817 01:31:34,280 --> 01:31:38,360 Speaker 25: nearly seven percent. So that just tells you when you 1818 01:31:38,560 --> 01:31:42,800 Speaker 25: see private companies just not really willing to invest, that 1819 01:31:42,920 --> 01:31:46,280 Speaker 25: they just don't have the confidence in doing so and 1820 01:31:46,439 --> 01:31:49,400 Speaker 25: in building more of their business and investing in more 1821 01:31:49,439 --> 01:31:51,840 Speaker 25: of their businesses over time. 1822 01:31:52,520 --> 01:31:56,720 Speaker 3: Yeah yeah. Meanwhile, India is embracing Apple products. 1823 01:31:58,080 --> 01:31:58,479 Speaker 9: Oh yeah. 1824 01:31:58,600 --> 01:32:03,439 Speaker 25: This is a deliberate strategy by Apple to try and 1825 01:32:03,560 --> 01:32:07,719 Speaker 25: diversify away from China. It's what's known as the China 1826 01:32:07,800 --> 01:32:13,679 Speaker 25: plus one strategy. In that post COVID companies learned very hardly, 1827 01:32:13,960 --> 01:32:17,000 Speaker 25: very harshly about the risks of putting all your eggs 1828 01:32:17,040 --> 01:32:20,360 Speaker 25: in one basket and just relying on China for your 1829 01:32:20,680 --> 01:32:24,880 Speaker 25: supply chains. So Apple's chosen markets where it wants to 1830 01:32:24,960 --> 01:32:30,120 Speaker 25: develop is India. It now produces, you know, about one 1831 01:32:30,160 --> 01:32:33,160 Speaker 25: in seven of its products in India. It's got a 1832 01:32:33,240 --> 01:32:37,800 Speaker 25: couple of flagship Apple stores in the country now, and 1833 01:32:37,920 --> 01:32:40,160 Speaker 25: its revenue from India is jumping. It's up about a 1834 01:32:40,280 --> 01:32:43,080 Speaker 25: third now in the last twelve months. It's up to 1835 01:32:43,120 --> 01:32:46,519 Speaker 25: about six billion dollars a year. So Apple is quite 1836 01:32:46,520 --> 01:32:51,360 Speaker 25: deliberately diversing its manufacturing and revenue sources beyond China. Now, 1837 01:32:51,360 --> 01:32:56,880 Speaker 25: it's not going to abandon China altogether, but nevertheless, India 1838 01:32:57,000 --> 01:33:00,759 Speaker 25: is becoming a much more important market and it seems 1839 01:33:00,760 --> 01:33:03,679 Speaker 25: as a very good market in many ways, not just Apple, 1840 01:33:04,439 --> 01:33:07,240 Speaker 25: but for other tech companies as well. It's got a 1841 01:33:07,439 --> 01:33:12,320 Speaker 25: very young, well educated population. The demographics are very much 1842 01:33:12,960 --> 01:33:16,840 Speaker 25: in India's favor, unlike in China, which is getting more 1843 01:33:16,880 --> 01:33:21,440 Speaker 25: and more elderly. And you've got, you know, developing infrastructure 1844 01:33:22,000 --> 01:33:24,320 Speaker 25: in the country, still nowhere near as good as China, 1845 01:33:24,400 --> 01:33:27,439 Speaker 25: but nevertheless developing, so providing a lot of the things 1846 01:33:27,479 --> 01:33:30,320 Speaker 25: that tech companies like Apple require. 1847 01:33:30,720 --> 01:33:34,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, very good.

Time to catch 1861 01:34:10,160 --> 01:34:13,400 Speaker 3: up with UK correspondent Devin Gray and some pretty concerning 1862 01:34:13,520 --> 01:34:16,879 Speaker 3: images out of Yorkshire in north East England. Gavin these 1863 01:34:17,040 --> 01:34:18,920 Speaker 3: riots to tell us about what's been. 1864 01:34:18,880 --> 01:34:22,920 Speaker 26: Going on, Yeah, Jack, and uncertainty is for the court. 1865 01:34:23,000 --> 01:34:25,559 Speaker 26: But let me start by what started well. A number 1866 01:34:25,600 --> 01:34:29,200 Speaker 26: of police were called after seemingly some sort of disorder 1867 01:34:29,400 --> 01:34:33,040 Speaker 26: which then became some serious disorder. A police car was 1868 01:34:33,080 --> 01:34:36,840 Speaker 26: flipped over, a bus was set alight, barricades were made 1869 01:34:36,920 --> 01:34:40,840 Speaker 26: in streets in the Harehills area of Leeds. It's quite 1870 01:34:40,880 --> 01:34:44,280 Speaker 26: a rundown part of that city in the northeast of England. 1871 01:34:44,360 --> 01:34:47,439 Speaker 26: In Yorkshire and Police Force said they were called to 1872 01:34:47,479 --> 01:34:50,479 Speaker 26: a disturbance at an address at around five pm local 1873 01:34:50,600 --> 01:34:54,479 Speaker 26: time and then further pockets of disorder spread out. Indeed, 1874 01:34:54,600 --> 01:34:59,160 Speaker 26: social media videos show big crowds on the streets and 1875 01:34:59,720 --> 01:35:03,320 Speaker 26: this police car being attacked with a scooter before it 1876 01:35:03,400 --> 01:35:07,839 Speaker 26: was then flipped over. The local MP saying she's appalled 1877 01:35:07,880 --> 01:35:10,960 Speaker 26: at the shocking scenes. No injuries have been reported, but 1878 01:35:11,240 --> 01:35:13,760 Speaker 26: right through until very late into the evening, hundreds of 1879 01:35:13,800 --> 01:35:17,240 Speaker 26: people remained gathered around as the streets were strewn with 1880 01:35:17,360 --> 01:35:20,760 Speaker 26: rubbish and other debris. Police had missiles thrown at them. 1881 01:35:21,120 --> 01:35:23,240 Speaker 26: So why did it all start? All were being told 1882 01:35:23,360 --> 01:35:26,560 Speaker 26: is that police were called to quote an ongoing disturbance 1883 01:35:26,600 --> 01:35:30,880 Speaker 26: which involves some agency workers and some children. When they 1884 01:35:30,960 --> 01:35:34,759 Speaker 26: attended a disturbance, more people started to attend the location 1885 01:35:34,960 --> 01:35:37,960 Speaker 26: and the decision was made to remove the agency workers 1886 01:35:38,120 --> 01:35:41,000 Speaker 26: and the children to a safe place. So we don't 1887 01:35:41,160 --> 01:35:45,080 Speaker 26: know why the agency workers were there, what agency workers 1888 01:35:45,120 --> 01:35:47,880 Speaker 26: they were, all sorts of speculation which I won't add to. 1889 01:35:48,080 --> 01:35:49,519 Speaker 26: I'm sure we'll get more details. 1890 01:35:49,720 --> 01:35:49,880 Speaker 9: Yeah. 1891 01:35:50,280 --> 01:35:53,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, some of those images were pretty remarkable, to be 1892 01:35:53,280 --> 01:35:56,000 Speaker 3: perfically honest. I mean, especially that vast thing. See the 1893 01:35:56,080 --> 01:35:58,719 Speaker 3: light it was that was shocking. Now the outgoing NATO 1894 01:35:58,840 --> 01:36:03,560 Speaker 3: boss sees Europe must be prepared forget this a decade 1895 01:36:04,000 --> 01:36:05,160 Speaker 3: of the Ukrainian war. 1896 01:36:06,200 --> 01:36:10,600 Speaker 26: Yeah, yeah, So Jen Staltenberg's ten year tenure comes to 1897 01:36:10,680 --> 01:36:13,600 Speaker 26: an end in October. In November we get to the 1898 01:36:13,680 --> 01:36:17,880 Speaker 26: presidential election in America, and if Donald Trump wins a 1899 01:36:17,960 --> 01:36:21,840 Speaker 26: second term, he's already said that he would either completely 1900 01:36:22,120 --> 01:36:27,120 Speaker 26: cut aids to Ukraine as into zero or severely drastically 1901 01:36:27,240 --> 01:36:30,400 Speaker 26: reduce it. And of course that means we've got a 1902 01:36:30,479 --> 01:36:33,280 Speaker 26: war going on on the doorstep of Europe, and that's 1903 01:36:33,320 --> 01:36:36,400 Speaker 26: why Jen Stoltenberg is warning both Europe but also the 1904 01:36:36,479 --> 01:36:39,680 Speaker 26: rest of NATO that they really do need to be 1905 01:36:39,800 --> 01:36:42,360 Speaker 26: aware this is going to be a long drawn out affair. 1906 01:36:42,439 --> 01:36:45,280 Speaker 26: And of course NATO's funds as well are something that 1907 01:36:46,120 --> 01:36:50,639 Speaker 26: a second term for Donald Trump might might be cut 1908 01:36:50,720 --> 01:36:55,439 Speaker 26: back on. He's already suggested that NATO members should be 1909 01:36:55,520 --> 01:36:59,479 Speaker 26: paying more than America. So what Jan Stoltenberg is saying is, look, 1910 01:36:59,520 --> 01:37:01,120 Speaker 26: we need to be prepared for it to last a 1911 01:37:01,160 --> 01:37:04,320 Speaker 26: long time, and ironically saying that the more we found 1912 01:37:04,400 --> 01:37:06,960 Speaker 26: it now, the faster a resolution might be reached. 1913 01:37:07,160 --> 01:37:10,719 Speaker 3: And Gavin. Five environmental protesters who blocked a major London 1914 01:37:10,800 --> 01:37:15,000 Speaker 3: motorway in twenty twenty two have been sentenced to jail, yes, 1915 01:37:15,200 --> 01:37:15,879 Speaker 3: and quite. 1916 01:37:15,720 --> 01:37:18,439 Speaker 26: Long terms, which surprised people, but I think as well 1917 01:37:18,920 --> 01:37:21,519 Speaker 26: a lot of motorists who were affected on the actions 1918 01:37:21,560 --> 01:37:26,719 Speaker 26: that they took were delighted. So in November of twenty 1919 01:37:26,880 --> 01:37:31,600 Speaker 26: twenty two, forty five justop Ball protesters climbed gantries on 1920 01:37:32,000 --> 01:37:35,439 Speaker 26: the London Orbital Motorway, the M twenty five. It's a 1921 01:37:35,600 --> 01:37:39,479 Speaker 26: massively busy road even when it's quiet, and of course 1922 01:37:39,560 --> 01:37:41,559 Speaker 26: when they were up in the gantries, the police said, 1923 01:37:41,560 --> 01:37:45,160 Speaker 26: well they're not safe, they may fall drivers may crash, 1924 01:37:45,240 --> 01:37:48,439 Speaker 26: so they shut the motorway. It was said to cost 1925 01:37:48,600 --> 01:37:53,320 Speaker 26: fifty one thousand hours of driver delays, cost the economy 1926 01:37:53,720 --> 01:37:56,759 Speaker 26: at least one and a half billion New Zealand dollars, 1927 01:37:57,080 --> 01:38:01,240 Speaker 26: and indeed cost the police operation to millions. So there 1928 01:38:01,360 --> 01:38:04,000 Speaker 26: was huge anger at the time. And now five of 1929 01:38:04,160 --> 01:38:08,000 Speaker 26: the main ring leaders who organized that protest have been jailed, 1930 01:38:08,160 --> 01:38:12,320 Speaker 26: the ring leader five years imprisonment, the others or four years. 1931 01:38:12,800 --> 01:38:15,160 Speaker 26: We have become, I think, so used in this country 1932 01:38:15,240 --> 01:38:17,280 Speaker 26: to people being just let off with a little smack 1933 01:38:17,320 --> 01:38:20,000 Speaker 26: on the risk of some community service work that when 1934 01:38:20,080 --> 01:38:22,960 Speaker 26: the length of jail tones was read out, I think 1935 01:38:23,000 --> 01:38:25,880 Speaker 26: there was genuine shock in the court. But looking at 1936 01:38:25,920 --> 01:38:29,519 Speaker 26: the daily papers, many of them saying, at last we 1937 01:38:29,640 --> 01:38:33,559 Speaker 26: are getting some serious sentences for those who commit these 1938 01:38:33,640 --> 01:38:35,720 Speaker 26: crimes and cause such inconvenience. 1939 01:38:36,080 --> 01:38:39,920 Speaker 3: UK correspondent Gavin Gray, thank you. You take care Jim. 1940 01:38:40,439 --> 01:38:44,280 Speaker 2: Whether it's macro micro or just playing economics, it's all 1941 01:38:44,400 --> 01:38:48,000 Speaker 2: on the Business Hour with hither duplicy Ellen and my HR, 1942 01:38:48,360 --> 01:38:50,599 Speaker 2: the HR platform for SEME used. 1943 01:38:50,479 --> 01:38:51,040 Speaker 1: Talks it b. 1944 01:38:52,800 --> 01:38:55,560 Speaker 3: Oh, dear Davis looked me at me, says Jack.

Stopped to get petrol, but 1947 01:39:01,400 --> 01:39:03,880 Speaker 3: I'm unable to pay for it because I'm unable to 1948 01:39:03,960 --> 01:39:06,400 Speaker 3: transfer money on the Kiwi ban cap at the moment, 1949 01:39:06,479 --> 01:39:08,360 Speaker 3: So now I'm forced to stay here until the app 1950 01:39:08,400 --> 01:39:11,800 Speaker 3: starts working again. I'm sure a whole heap of people 1951 01:39:11,840 --> 01:39:13,680 Speaker 3: are going to be affected in the same way with 1952 01:39:13,800 --> 01:39:17,559 Speaker 3: these outages.

Oh man, I wonder if they've 1959 01:39:32,120 --> 01:39:34,120 Speaker 3: tried turning it off and then turning it on again. 1960 01:39:34,720 --> 01:39:37,960 Speaker 3: Perhaps now it's really bad.
