1 00:00:02,960 --> 00:00:06,880 Speaker 1: Digging through the spith spins to find the real story boring. 2 00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:11,479 Speaker 1: It's Heather Dupaicy on Drive with One New Zealand let's 3 00:00:11,520 --> 00:00:14,160 Speaker 1: get connected news talksb. 4 00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:18,439 Speaker 2: Hey, good afternoons. You do you remember me? That's right, 5 00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:20,560 Speaker 2: my name's Heather and I'm back. How good to be 6 00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:22,119 Speaker 2: back with you. Coming up today, we're going to have 7 00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:25,120 Speaker 2: a chat to a driving instructor on scrapping that second test, 8 00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:27,800 Speaker 2: what he makes of that, the Tourism Minister on pumping 9 00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:30,800 Speaker 2: more cash into marketing overseas and Finance Minister. As always 10 00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:32,760 Speaker 2: on a Monday after sex and Nikola Willis will be 11 00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:35,919 Speaker 2: with us. Heather Duplicy Allen right, well, as I say, 12 00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:37,840 Speaker 2: it's very very good to be back with you. Finally, 13 00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:39,639 Speaker 2: it's been a long time. I've actually been off air 14 00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:42,280 Speaker 2: when you count the summer holidays for four months straight. 15 00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:44,280 Speaker 2: And I'll tell you what did that give me an 16 00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:46,640 Speaker 2: insight into why so many people are frustrated with the 17 00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:49,960 Speaker 2: news media. Ahla that aut news media survey which came 18 00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:52,760 Speaker 2: out just in the last twenty four hours. Most of 19 00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:54,160 Speaker 2: what I did was most of the time that I 20 00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:56,720 Speaker 2: was on maternity leave, I just didn't listen to news 21 00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:59,920 Speaker 2: talk ZB and you know, obviously love the station, but 22 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:02,440 Speaker 2: it's my work, right, So it's the equivalent of being, 23 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:05,440 Speaker 2: I don't know, a librarian on maternity leaf, but just 24 00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:07,520 Speaker 2: popping into the library every day. You don't really get 25 00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:09,720 Speaker 2: much of a break if your mind is still in it. 26 00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:11,200 Speaker 2: So I decided I'm not going to listen to work. 27 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:12,840 Speaker 2: I'm going to listen to everything else. And what it 28 00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:16,880 Speaker 2: meant was that I relied almost entirely for my local 29 00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:19,959 Speaker 2: news on the two evening news bulletins. And did that 30 00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:23,360 Speaker 2: drive me nuts or what? Because in a fair number 31 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:28,119 Speaker 2: of news stories, what I saw was no fairness, no analysis, 32 00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:30,200 Speaker 2: and I'm sorry to say what I would consider to 33 00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:32,040 Speaker 2: be a fair amount of media bias. I'll give you 34 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:35,480 Speaker 2: an example, a recent example, right, the situation with Benjamin Doyle, 35 00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:39,319 Speaker 2: the Green MP and the creepy bussy galore caption on 36 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:42,000 Speaker 2: the photos. Now, that should have been a story about 37 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:45,399 Speaker 2: what the heck Benjamin Doyle was doing using a pretty 38 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 2: gross phrase like that around photos of their child. But instead, 39 00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:52,880 Speaker 2: instead of that ever being what the TV news stories did, 40 00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:55,920 Speaker 2: instead they went straight to stories about Winston Peter's being 41 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 2: a mean guy and the fact that we were doing 42 00:01:57,760 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 2: all these attacks on the Rainbow community and so on. 43 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:03,000 Speaker 2: Or take for example Trump versus Zelenski a few weeks 44 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 2: ago in the White House. Now, obviously what happened there 45 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:08,000 Speaker 2: was outrageous, but there was a very good reason why 46 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 2: Donald Trump did that. He was appealing to his voters, 47 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 2: wasn't he But you wouldn't know that if you watch 48 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:16,279 Speaker 2: the TV news. All you see is some old, deranged 49 00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:19,359 Speaker 2: orange guy according to their news reporting, no sense of 50 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:21,680 Speaker 2: why he was doing that, no analysis, just outraged. That 51 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:23,960 Speaker 2: totally clouded the judgment, I thought, and I had to 52 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:26,080 Speaker 2: go to the BBC, of all places, for a bit 53 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 2: of analysis and explanation as to what was going on. 54 00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 2: I think that's part of the reason why in this 55 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:34,000 Speaker 2: aut survey only thirty two percent of people said that 56 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 2: they've got trust in the media. I suspect that's part 57 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:39,520 Speaker 2: of the problem anyway. In preparation for work, happily in 58 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 2: the last few weeks, and much to my own relief, 59 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:44,519 Speaker 2: I started tuning into News Talk ZB and immediately felt 60 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 2: a lot less frustrated because while I don't agree with 61 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:50,040 Speaker 2: everything that I hear on this station, at least I 62 00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:52,520 Speaker 2: know I'm getting a range of views and I'm getting 63 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 2: a heck of a lot more analysis elsewhere and hopefully, frankly, 64 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 2: I hope that's your experience too. So let's get into 65 00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:00,880 Speaker 2: that Heaver do for see Ellen nine three nine two. 66 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 2: By the way, as the text number hit me with it. 67 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 2: It turns out and uncompletely unrelated news, turns out our 68 00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 2: public servants are loving the old AI. Almost half of 69 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:12,160 Speaker 2: them forty five percent are using AI and their work. 70 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 2: But the problem is very few have any rules at 71 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 2: work around how to use it now. Kerrie Davis is 72 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 2: the Public Service Association National secretary, Kerry, Hello, Hi, Hi, 73 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,160 Speaker 2: he that does this worry you? The use of the stuff. 74 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,800 Speaker 3: What worries me is not so much the use of 75 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 3: it except without proper guardrails, without safeguards, without training. AI 76 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 3: in itself is not so much the issue. It's the 77 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:45,240 Speaker 3: use of AI without proper proper supports and proper training. 78 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:48,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, because what do these guys have closed 79 00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 2: AI or are they just using chat GPT? Do we know. 80 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 3: There's a whole mixture, but tech GPT is the most 81 00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:57,480 Speaker 3: common vemeoes. 82 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,080 Speaker 2: So is it possible that they are uploading sort of 83 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 2: like confidential government documents and to chat GPT. 84 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 3: I wouldn't think so no, So what are they doing more? 85 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:11,840 Speaker 2: What's the concern that if they're not uploading private and 86 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 2: confidential stuff, then what's the problem. 87 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:19,560 Speaker 3: Well, there are still problems about the accuracy of information 88 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 3: that's been utilized through the use of AI and making 89 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:28,480 Speaker 3: sure that you're using the right platform, for the right 90 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 3: platform tool, for the right sort of support if you like. 91 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 2: Okay, give me an example you might be worried about. 92 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:40,480 Speaker 3: So one is in terms of when we're talking about 93 00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 3: recruitment exercises or any sort of collation of information, there 94 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 3: needs to be guardrails put in place. In terms of 95 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 3: gender and racial bias, there's issues of privacy, there's also 96 00:04:56,600 --> 00:05:01,800 Speaker 3: issues of accuracy, and there's also the impact on the 97 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 3: quality of services, particularly when we're aware that New Zealand's 98 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 3: vs community and needs to be tailored to match the 99 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 3: context in which it's been used and the different population 100 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 3: groups in which we're working with. So we do have 101 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 3: an AI framework for the public service and that's not 102 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 3: a bad framework, but what it appears has happened is 103 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 3: that that hasn't been implemented into workplaces. So it's about 104 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 3: translating that framework into workplaces so that people get appropriate 105 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 3: support and training. 106 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 2: Harry, You've lost me. All I'm marrying is a lot 107 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 2: of words. I don't even know what this means in 108 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 2: real life. What's the problem? What we so let's say 109 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:55,479 Speaker 2: I don't know. Let me say. Let's say I'm pick 110 00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:58,239 Speaker 2: a department, Kerry, pick a department. Let's say I'm working 111 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:02,200 Speaker 2: at the Treasury and I'm going to into treasury. What 112 00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:06,280 Speaker 2: into my little chat GPT. What is the impact of 113 00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:10,440 Speaker 2: I don't know, two point five percent inflation on the population. 114 00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 2: What's the problem? And it pumps out an answer. 115 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 3: I mean that happens all the time already. You don't 116 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:21,360 Speaker 3: need AI to do that sort of work. The sort 117 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:25,159 Speaker 3: of work that AI has been used for is helping 118 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:32,480 Speaker 3: transcribe and summarize notes. It's also about ensuring that the 119 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:36,360 Speaker 3: right tone might be used in emails or staff communications. 120 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:41,719 Speaker 3: It's also about if you're working in checking code and 121 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:45,520 Speaker 3: problem solving, coding and designer shows, using AC all. 122 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:47,719 Speaker 2: Of the stuff that we feel particularly dangerous to me? 123 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 2: Are we potentially making rules like if what you're arguing 124 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:52,200 Speaker 2: is we need to make some rules around AI, are 125 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:54,360 Speaker 2: we're potentially just making rules for the sake of making rules. 126 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:56,800 Speaker 2: Should we not just let these very competent and often 127 00:06:56,920 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 2: university educated people just use their judgment. 128 00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:04,040 Speaker 3: Well, they are using their judgment, but it's a matter. 129 00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:08,720 Speaker 3: You can't like any technology. We've had all sorts of 130 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 3: technology changes over the years, and we've always had appropriate 131 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:14,840 Speaker 3: support and training to make sure that we get the 132 00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 3: best out of that technology. 133 00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 2: Kerrie, thank you for your time. Appreciate it. Mate. That's 134 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 2: Carrie Davis, who's the Public Service Association National secretary. By 135 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 2: Jason Pine's going to be there shortly. Just on the 136 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 2: AI is chatting to a girlfriend of mine the other day. 137 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 2: AI is amazing. She put into aas she wants to 138 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 2: lose weight, so she can only eat in a certain 139 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:33,920 Speaker 2: number of calories a day. Right, so she says to 140 00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 2: the AI, AI, can you please come up with a 141 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 2: menu for me that only gives me this number of 142 00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:42,720 Speaker 2: calories a day using New Zealand products that are available 143 00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 2: in autumn. I've got this in my pantry, so include 144 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:48,920 Speaker 2: that these are my staples. Include that in the recipes. 145 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 2: Please provide me with the shopping list. Please make sure 146 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 2: you include one cup of coffee a day in my 147 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:57,000 Speaker 2: calorie count, and please tell me how to do meal 148 00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 2: prep in the days leading up to it, and AI 149 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 2: pumped it all out for her. How incredible is that 150 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 2: called a past? 151 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 1: It's the Heather Duper See Alan Drive Full Show podcast 152 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:09,920 Speaker 1: on iHeartRadio powered by News Talk Zippy. 153 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,360 Speaker 2: Right, it's coming up eighteen past four Jason Pine sports 154 00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 2: talk hosters with us Piney. Hello, welcome back, Heather. Did 155 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:19,720 Speaker 2: you miss me every day? 156 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:23,160 Speaker 4: I think we know that's not true. I would I 157 00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:26,600 Speaker 4: would venture that you did not give four seventeen on 158 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 4: a Monday and a Friday a second thought while you're. 159 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 2: A I listened to you yesterday and I thought, no, 160 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:34,079 Speaker 2: that's rubbish, and I turned it off. No, I didn't 161 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,480 Speaker 2: turn it off. I thought that's quite interesting. He's smarter 162 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 2: than I thought. Piney, thank you for as always making 163 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:42,680 Speaker 2: me feel special. Did you watch the golf? I did? 164 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:45,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, I was. I was glued to it. Well, I mean, 165 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 4: incredible drama and in many ways, I think it's a 166 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 4: very popular win for Rory McElroy. He seems to have 167 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,080 Speaker 4: wanted this for a long time. The emotion when he 168 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:58,200 Speaker 4: finally sunk that part on the playoff hole was pretty palpable, 169 00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:01,280 Speaker 4: wasn't it? And look, these guys millions and millions of dollars, 170 00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:04,720 Speaker 4: but clearly it still means something emotionally to him, the 171 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:07,520 Speaker 4: one he hadn't won the green jacket they all want 172 00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:11,200 Speaker 4: to wear. Only six guys have ever won all four 173 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 4: of the of the majors, which is a very low 174 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 4: number really, and he joins them. So yeah, I was 175 00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 4: happy for him. I think it was a popular went 176 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:21,280 Speaker 4: all round. 177 00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 2: Really, it was something we're all looking forward to. 178 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:23,719 Speaker 1: Now. 179 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 2: What is going on with Warriors? So is it the 180 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 2: fact that every time we go up is it the 181 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:30,200 Speaker 2: Melbourne Storm? We just can't we can't seem to beat them. 182 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:33,280 Speaker 4: I don't know that I will ever see the Warriors 183 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:35,960 Speaker 4: beat the Melbourne Storm in my lifetime. Now it just 184 00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 4: seems as though there is a curse at play here 185 00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:43,040 Speaker 4: and we will never again beat them. Seventeen straight losses 186 00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 4: to the Melbourne Storm. And look I tuned in, you 187 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 4: know yesterday afternoon. I got home at finish my radio show, 188 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:50,360 Speaker 4: got home at four o'clock, caught right, this is I'm 189 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,840 Speaker 4: looking forward to this. I feel optimistic, I feel positive, 190 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:58,920 Speaker 4: and by halftime they were thirty six knel behind. It 191 00:09:59,000 --> 00:09:59,439 Speaker 4: was just. 192 00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 2: Another incredible aim. 193 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 4: I mean really they just Melbourne are good. Don't get 194 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 4: me wrong here. The Melbourne are a good team. They 195 00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:08,200 Speaker 4: are by far the best team in the NRL this season, 196 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:10,400 Speaker 4: you know, on the evidence of the first six weeks. 197 00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:13,480 Speaker 4: But I mean second half was better but from the Warriors, 198 00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:15,640 Speaker 4: but they were just so far off the pace in 199 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:17,520 Speaker 4: the first half. So yeah, big game this coming. We 200 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:20,680 Speaker 4: came back home, go media against the Broncos Saturday night. 201 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:22,640 Speaker 4: They're going pretty well as well, so let's see if 202 00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:25,360 Speaker 4: they can bounce back from another loss to Melbourne. 203 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:27,320 Speaker 2: Listen, Piney, I've obviously been away for a little while, 204 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 2: so I've been watching the Liam Lawson things, you know 205 00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:31,320 Speaker 2: from AFAR. Give me your take on it. Have we 206 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 2: given up? Is it just as as hopeless? 207 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 5: No? 208 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,079 Speaker 4: No, no, I hopeless. I think we need to accept 209 00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 4: that he is going to finish in the teams most 210 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:41,720 Speaker 4: of the time. I don't think we should expect him 211 00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:43,400 Speaker 4: to get into the points now that he's dropped down 212 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:45,360 Speaker 4: to the Racing Balls team. When he was in Red Bull, 213 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:47,200 Speaker 4: the cars faster. If he could have come to grips 214 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:49,080 Speaker 4: with it, which he couldn't, he would have been up 215 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:50,960 Speaker 4: on the points. Racing Balls don't pick up a lot 216 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 4: of points. They don't get a lot of play things. 217 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:54,520 Speaker 4: So look, I think he has to try and beat 218 00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:57,960 Speaker 4: Hadga his teammate, more often than not, and and just 219 00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:00,839 Speaker 4: continue to develop as a driver. To expect him to 220 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:04,440 Speaker 4: pick up points regularly, I think is probably drawing a 221 00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:06,079 Speaker 4: very long bug given the car he's in. 222 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 2: Thank you for giving us some context. I appreciate it. 223 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:09,719 Speaker 2: Finance sets me up for the rest of the time. 224 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 2: That's Jason Pine our Sports Talk coaster. We're back seven 225 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:13,840 Speaker 2: o'clock this evening here on news Talk. The reason I 226 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:15,680 Speaker 2: was asking him about it was because, of course Liam 227 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:19,679 Speaker 2: Lawson crossed the line in thirteenth place in the latest race. 228 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:21,600 Speaker 2: But the problem is he'd had a couple of collisions, 229 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 2: so he got fifteen seconds worth of time penalties, so 230 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:26,880 Speaker 2: then ended up being relegated to seventeenth, and then he 231 00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 2: got lifted to sixteenth because somebody else got disqualified and stuff. 232 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:31,360 Speaker 2: But I mean, if you're talking about sixteen and seventeen, 233 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:34,080 Speaker 2: it's just not that flash, is it. Heither, How did 234 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:36,360 Speaker 2: your friend know that the AI answer read the food 235 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 2: was correct. I forgot about texts like this. What a 236 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:44,679 Speaker 2: joy to have? What a joy to have? A three 237 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 2: year old texting in because we're going to know if 238 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:49,760 Speaker 2: the food tastes nice or not, aren't we? 239 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:53,840 Speaker 1: Four twenty one moving the big stories of the day 240 00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 1: forward a when it's Heather Dupasy on Drive with One 241 00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 1: New Zealand, let's get connected. Did the news dogs be hi? 242 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:05,439 Speaker 2: Heather? I absolutely endorse your observations regarding TV news. It's 243 00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:09,040 Speaker 2: very biased negativity towards the government, very unbalanced with cherry 244 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:12,000 Speaker 2: picked opinions and so on. Look just for the just 245 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:14,200 Speaker 2: to set the records straight. I'm not particularly picking on 246 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:16,560 Speaker 2: the TV news. I mean, you know, it just happens 247 00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 2: to be the only things I was consuming. I think 248 00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:21,440 Speaker 2: it kind of speaks to a lot of the media, 249 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:23,360 Speaker 2: you know, Like I think that you can find the 250 00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:26,080 Speaker 2: same problems in some print media, the same problems in 251 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:28,679 Speaker 2: some radio media as well, So it's kind of across 252 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:30,640 Speaker 2: the board. Although yeah, as I say, I just I 253 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 2: was consuming the TV news for work related reasons, just 254 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:36,040 Speaker 2: to give myself a break. I didn't give myself. Can 255 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 2: I just tell you this, I had the most I 256 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:43,200 Speaker 2: had the most wonderful maternity leaf. It was lovely. I've 257 00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 2: never understood my poort producer the German Laura. She took 258 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:48,439 Speaker 2: a year last time, years long, year long holiday when 259 00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:50,160 Speaker 2: she had a baby. I said to her, you just 260 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 2: took a holiday. You're just being lazy. You don't want 261 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:54,040 Speaker 2: to work. Didn't understand why she enjoyed it, because, if 262 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:56,680 Speaker 2: I'm completely honest, I didn't. I didn't enjoy my first 263 00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:00,400 Speaker 2: maternity leaf, but this time around, probably because I know 264 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 2: what I'm doing and I'm back in my hometown of Auckland. 265 00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:06,040 Speaker 2: I just had an absolute blast. It was wonderful. The 266 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:09,760 Speaker 2: baby is a delight. She's so cute. Obviously, she's my baby. 267 00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 2: I'm going to think that, aren't I. You might not 268 00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:14,640 Speaker 2: agree with me. I really enjoyed hanging out with her, 269 00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:15,960 Speaker 2: But boy was I productive. 270 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:17,200 Speaker 6: This. 271 00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:20,760 Speaker 2: I am not exaggerating. This is the god honest truth. 272 00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:27,040 Speaker 2: I tidied every single drawer and every single cupboard in 273 00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:29,840 Speaker 2: that house, every single draw and every single cupboard, apart 274 00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:31,560 Speaker 2: from my husband's because he's a grown up and I 275 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 2: don't need to do that and there may be things 276 00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:34,679 Speaker 2: I don't want to see, so I left his stuff 277 00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:37,320 Speaker 2: to him. But every single my fingers were in every drawer. 278 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:39,319 Speaker 2: A place is spotless, it's they're going to be set 279 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 2: up in the next three months. I just know it's 280 00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:43,400 Speaker 2: going to be hideous. I did the hedges. I deleted 281 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 2: my email account, my emails out of my personal email account. 282 00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:48,280 Speaker 2: I found emails from my ex boyfriend in two thousand 283 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:51,200 Speaker 2: and five. I don't need that and nobody needs that evidence. 284 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:53,800 Speaker 2: Delete got rid of that. Two thousand and five. I 285 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,640 Speaker 2: project managed an installation at home. I said, sowed the 286 00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:00,439 Speaker 2: tear and the curtain in the front room. I locked 287 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:03,240 Speaker 2: in a new mortgage radar, updated the insurance. I did 288 00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 2: all of this. I've cooked meals for the next two weeks. 289 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:07,520 Speaker 2: I've done all of the things. They've been super productive. 290 00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:09,719 Speaker 2: So coming back to work, frankly, is going to be 291 00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:11,720 Speaker 2: something of a holiday. I think we can all agree. 292 00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:14,080 Speaker 2: Do you know what I mean? Mums, mums around the 293 00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:17,160 Speaker 2: country right now, mm hm, sister, Yeah, speaking of mums, 294 00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 2: we're going to speak to I mean, this is obviously 295 00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 2: not her predominant job, but I always think about this 296 00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:23,560 Speaker 2: because she has got four children and I don't know 297 00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 2: how she does it. This is Nicolawulis talk to Nicolaulus, 298 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:30,120 Speaker 2: the Finance Minister after six o'clock about Donald Trump's trap 299 00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:32,000 Speaker 2: Tariff's the latest with us, and this is a moving 300 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:36,320 Speaker 2: thing all every single day. China has today retaliated by 301 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 2: by halting the expert rather sorry of critical minerals and magnets. 302 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,520 Speaker 2: You need these things for making cars and space stuff 303 00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:45,720 Speaker 2: and drones and rockets and stuff. They've stopped that. That's 304 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:48,520 Speaker 2: obviously a retaliation from them. He, on the other hand, 305 00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:51,240 Speaker 2: seems to have blinked. He's decided that he's exempted the 306 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:53,520 Speaker 2: smartphones and the laptops and so on, which you know, 307 00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:55,320 Speaker 2: I think people are seeing as a welcome sign that 308 00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 2: he's losing his nerve on this one. Now, have a 309 00:14:57,440 --> 00:14:59,480 Speaker 2: chat to Nicolaulas. I'm quite keen to see if we 310 00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:02,440 Speaker 2: are managing to make any headway looking for exemptions of 311 00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:04,520 Speaker 2: our own or you know, waving of the ten percent 312 00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:06,880 Speaker 2: terror for whatever. So she's with us. After six o'clock 313 00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:08,800 Speaker 2: news is next news talks that'd be. 314 00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:12,680 Speaker 7: I know you said this. 315 00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 8: Time you really are coming back again, baby, baby, start 316 00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:19,560 Speaker 8: this telling me the same. 317 00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 9: Oh, Noise, it was a last name. 318 00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:27,880 Speaker 7: Noise was a last name. 319 00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 1: Recapping the day's big news and making tomorrow's headlines. It's 320 00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 1: hither duplicy Ellen drive with one New Zealand let's get 321 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:42,400 Speaker 1: connected news talks. 322 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:42,720 Speaker 5: That'd be. 323 00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 2: The Peterson is going to be at us out of 324 00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 2: Australia in just a few minutes time, and then out 325 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 2: of Parliament. We'll have Thomas Coglan of The Herald before 326 00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 2: this half hours through. We got byway some tourism numbers 327 00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:04,520 Speaker 2: out today, a record number of American visitors in the 328 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:07,120 Speaker 2: month of February. Never had that number come through before, 329 00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:10,160 Speaker 2: so that's quite helpful, but helpful because the Chinese numbers 330 00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:11,920 Speaker 2: have dropped right back. Nothing to worry about that. I 331 00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:14,480 Speaker 2: don't think we don't need to get hysterical about that. 332 00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:16,240 Speaker 2: They had Chinese New Year fall in the month of 333 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 2: February and they tend to stay home for that, so 334 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:20,400 Speaker 2: as a result that kind of balances out in the 335 00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:24,400 Speaker 2: long term. But anyway, Government today announced pumping another thirteen 336 00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:27,080 Speaker 2: and a half million dollars into tourism marketing to try 337 00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:29,560 Speaker 2: to get about twenty four thousand visitors to come and 338 00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:30,880 Speaker 2: see us in the next wee. Whisk we have a 339 00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 2: chat to the Tourism Minister who is up to after 340 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:35,400 Speaker 2: five right now, it's twenty four away from five. 341 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:39,360 Speaker 1: It's the world wires on news talks. They'd be drive. 342 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:42,800 Speaker 2: So Albow over in Australia has announced that his government 343 00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:45,640 Speaker 2: will build one hundred thousand houses for first home buyers 344 00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:48,200 Speaker 2: in young Australian. Sound familiar to you, Yeah, it sounds 345 00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:50,960 Speaker 2: just like here we build, doesn't it. Well. Elbow's confident 346 00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:52,600 Speaker 2: he can do it, though he's been showing off some 347 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 2: under construction townhouses and a battleground electorate in South Ozi today. 348 00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:58,280 Speaker 9: This isn't theoretical. 349 00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 10: This is happening right now behind us. 350 00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 2: OLLI will cover that off in just a minute. At 351 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 2: least thirty four people have died in a Russian strike 352 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:08,280 Speaker 2: on a town in eastern Ukraine. This is one of 353 00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 2: the biggest losses of civilian life since the war started. 354 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:13,280 Speaker 2: Here's Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelenski. 355 00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 11: Every Russian missile, every drone and every glide box strikes 356 00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:24,760 Speaker 11: not only our people, but also diplomacy and the political 357 00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 11: efforts of everyone trying to end this war. 358 00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:31,840 Speaker 2: And finally, that's the sound of a helicopter crash. Now, 359 00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:34,679 Speaker 2: a helicopter crash in South Africa has been blamed on 360 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 2: a penguin. A passenger in the chopper apparently had a 361 00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:39,919 Speaker 2: penguin and a box on their lap, and when the 362 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:42,120 Speaker 2: chopper was fifty feet off the ground, the box slid 363 00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:44,440 Speaker 2: off their lap and then hit the pilot's controls. At 364 00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:46,960 Speaker 2: that point, the helicopter rolled, it hit the ground and crashed. 365 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:48,679 Speaker 2: And their most amazing part about all of this is 366 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:51,200 Speaker 2: that neither the penguin nor anyone else on board the 367 00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:52,120 Speaker 2: chopper was hurt. 368 00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:56,680 Speaker 1: International correspondence with Ends and Eye Insurance Peace of Mind 369 00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:58,480 Speaker 1: for New Zealand business. 370 00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:01,800 Speaker 2: Olli Peterson, it's our Perth Life Presenters with us Ali. 371 00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 12: Hello, get ahead, long time, no chat. 372 00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:07,800 Speaker 2: Mate, Good to talk to you. Listen as Albert googled 373 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:11,800 Speaker 2: how that one hundred thousand dollars one hundred thousand houses 374 00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 2: in New Zealand wind? 375 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 12: Yeah, that's right, he's just stolen key we build. 376 00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:16,639 Speaker 13: He thought that that was a good idea. 377 00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:18,600 Speaker 2: Do you think he went down and just had a 378 00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:20,040 Speaker 2: look at how that came out in the end. 379 00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:23,320 Speaker 12: I mean, I'll be honest with you, let's be all 380 00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 12: cynical about it. I don't think anybody believes either party 381 00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:29,359 Speaker 12: can deliver what they're promising, right, It's just going to 382 00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:32,240 Speaker 12: be too hard. Ultimately, Yes, the idea of trying to 383 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 12: get more young people into a home is exactly what 384 00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:36,960 Speaker 12: we were waiting for a big policy announcement because it's 385 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 12: one of the major issues in this country. But what 386 00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 12: the Prime minist is promising now in regards to I mean, 387 00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:44,080 Speaker 12: hitting five percent for a deposit. I mean, we've got 388 00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:46,520 Speaker 12: economists in this country predicting that interest rates are going 389 00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:49,080 Speaker 12: to be cut three times this year. We just simply 390 00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:52,040 Speaker 12: can't build enough houses. So what's that going to do? 391 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:55,879 Speaker 12: Just drive up property prices and Peter Dutton's tax concessions 392 00:18:55,920 --> 00:19:00,480 Speaker 12: deductions at least frames it towards the idea of making 393 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:03,320 Speaker 12: sure that you have to build a new home. But look, 394 00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:05,800 Speaker 12: the economists are all warning today the bigger picture here, 395 00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:08,680 Speaker 12: to be perfectly blunt, Heather is just yesterday at both launchers, 396 00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:12,520 Speaker 12: the two parties promised twenty four billion dollars in extra 397 00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:15,120 Speaker 12: expenses plus a few tax cuts, and how. 398 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:17,119 Speaker 2: Can we afford it? We're heading towards a trillion dollars 399 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:19,280 Speaker 2: in debt. Yeah, but now are you telling me that 400 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:21,920 Speaker 2: you guys are standing there watching elbow unveiled us, going, 401 00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 2: he's never going to do that. 402 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:25,400 Speaker 14: Of course we are, because. 403 00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:26,360 Speaker 2: They've been promising this for years. 404 00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:28,800 Speaker 12: I mean they've had a whole building scheme for this 405 00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:29,680 Speaker 12: first term of government. 406 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:31,200 Speaker 13: They delivered bugger all. 407 00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:32,439 Speaker 5: So how they all all of. 408 00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 12: A sudden going to be able to deliver it in 409 00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:36,720 Speaker 12: a second term. But I think that's both ways. It's 410 00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:38,719 Speaker 12: not just about Albin Easy. I don't think Dutton can 411 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:40,639 Speaker 12: promise the world on housing either and deliver it. 412 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:43,040 Speaker 2: It just is a reality at the moment, Heather. 413 00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:46,159 Speaker 12: Until we tackle migration, we're going to continue to have 414 00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:46,639 Speaker 12: these problems. 415 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:48,480 Speaker 2: Yes point, listen, what's going wrong with your maths? 416 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:50,040 Speaker 14: We just can't do it. 417 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 12: So the nap pland testing, which is the bugbear of 418 00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:56,280 Speaker 12: every Australian pairrot a few times a year, is starting 419 00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:59,840 Speaker 12: to really show some disturbing habits, particularly amongst students in 420 00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:03,120 Speaker 12: g grade four. Only thirteen percent of students in grade 421 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:06,760 Speaker 12: four you would consider a competent maths. Now you compare 422 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 12: that to the UK where it's about twenty one percent, 423 00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:11,439 Speaker 12: Singapore is about fifty percent. And you know, ultimately we 424 00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:13,760 Speaker 12: have our challenges in our education system. It's still a 425 00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:16,760 Speaker 12: very good education system. They're worried that the teachers don't 426 00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:18,479 Speaker 12: know how to do maths. They're worried about the teaching 427 00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:21,240 Speaker 12: methods in regards to the teachers try to pass on 428 00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:23,639 Speaker 12: that knowledge to the students, and they're suggesting the solution 429 00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:27,320 Speaker 12: here he is to have a basically maths wizard in 430 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:30,879 Speaker 12: every single school who coordinates maths for every single student. 431 00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:32,000 Speaker 2: And I'm not going to put my hand up for 432 00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:35,760 Speaker 2: that because I'm hopeless. So just so basically having somebody 433 00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:39,280 Speaker 2: who understands maths teach maths. It's great idea, isn't it. 434 00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:43,200 Speaker 2: Isn't it? Yeah, well, yeah, isn't it. Just well, good 435 00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:44,680 Speaker 2: luck with that. I mean, you've first got to teach 436 00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:46,440 Speaker 2: maths to actually have them understand it. But it's the 437 00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:48,560 Speaker 2: same problem we face. Listen, tell me about this. So 438 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 2: the Metro in Sydney has been such is such a 439 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:52,960 Speaker 2: hat you guys actually don't have enough trains. 440 00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:55,280 Speaker 12: Yeah, that's right. I mean, if you think about how 441 00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:57,639 Speaker 12: popular metro is. I looked at this before because I 442 00:20:57,680 --> 00:20:59,639 Speaker 12: thought it was interesting. The population of Sydney, you know, 443 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:01,920 Speaker 12: is the population of New Zealand. Yeah, so there's a 444 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:04,000 Speaker 12: bit of context for everybody, and you probably already knew that. 445 00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:07,120 Speaker 12: I thought that was fascinating. But the metro comes every 446 00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 12: four minutes in Sydney. Now this is from Bankstown to Tullawong. 447 00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:12,879 Speaker 12: I caught it myself over summer. I think it's amazing. 448 00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:15,639 Speaker 12: It's like the underground in London, but the new metro 449 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:19,240 Speaker 12: comes every four minutes. Fifty seven thousand people are moved 450 00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:21,440 Speaker 12: between the peak hour in the morning just in one hour, 451 00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 12: but they now need fourteen more trains to be able 452 00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:27,679 Speaker 12: to send those extra services every three minutes instead of 453 00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:31,399 Speaker 12: every four minutes. So the popularity of this metro is 454 00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:34,679 Speaker 12: just exceeding expectations. And what I love about it is 455 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:37,360 Speaker 12: we all are naysays when it comes to good public transport. 456 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:39,760 Speaker 12: Here's an example of something that works. I mean, all 457 00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:43,920 Speaker 12: of our cities will be experiencing growing pains head obviously 458 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:46,640 Speaker 12: Perth and you and I are not exactly right where 459 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:48,119 Speaker 12: Sydney is at the moment, but we will be in 460 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 12: the years to come. So let's look at an example 461 00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:52,640 Speaker 12: like this and have some future forward thinking and planning. 462 00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:55,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, I totally agree with you. It's about doing it, 463 00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:57,160 Speaker 2: but actually doing it well that makes the difference. Oli, 464 00:21:57,280 --> 00:21:59,359 Speaker 2: thank you so much, really appreciate chatting to you. That's Oliver 465 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 2: Peterson six PR Perth Live presenter got a little bit 466 00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:04,240 Speaker 2: of good news for Donald Trump because lately. It hasn't 467 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:06,639 Speaker 2: been fantastic news, has it. He's got his annual medical 468 00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:09,399 Speaker 2: report out, and he's actually in pretty good shape for it. 469 00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:12,840 Speaker 2: He's the oldest. Remember, he is the oldest president the 470 00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:14,960 Speaker 2: States has ever had, right, so the fact that he's 471 00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:16,960 Speaker 2: in good shape says a lot. You want the guy 472 00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:19,840 Speaker 2: to be in good shape. He's lost nine cages since 473 00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 2: he had his last annual medical report in twenty twenty. 474 00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:25,879 Speaker 2: He is now not obese anymore. He's just overweight. This 475 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:27,960 Speaker 2: is according to the BMI, So he's sitting in it 476 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:31,760 Speaker 2: slightly under one hundred and two CAGs. His total cholesterol 477 00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:34,119 Speaker 2: is one hundred and forty anything below two hundred I 478 00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 2: think is considered good. Has blood pressure is one hundred 479 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:38,639 Speaker 2: and twenty eight over seventy four, sitting a bit on 480 00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:41,240 Speaker 2: the high side. Might want to address that. Probably not 481 00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:44,639 Speaker 2: helped by the KFC and all the cheeseburgers and stuff. 482 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:47,400 Speaker 2: Resting heart rate of sixty two beats per minute, which 483 00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:50,359 Speaker 2: is actually impressive because anything between sixty and one hundred 484 00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:52,520 Speaker 2: is normal. Sixty two is right at the low end. 485 00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:55,280 Speaker 2: Got a bit of minus sun damage to his skin, 486 00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:58,720 Speaker 2: and that's been put down to and I quote frequent 487 00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:01,720 Speaker 2: victories in golf for Vet's politics is next. 488 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:05,000 Speaker 1: The politics was centrics credit, check your customers and get 489 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:05,840 Speaker 1: payments certainty. 490 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:08,840 Speaker 2: Thomas Coglin, the Herald's political editors, with us Thomas Hallo. 491 00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:10,520 Speaker 15: Hello here the welcome back. 492 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:12,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, thank you very much.

We're a bit nervous, 496 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:19,399 Speaker 15: but I'm doing my best. 497 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:21,400 Speaker 2: Oh good, now you'll be fantastic aut it, Thomas, don't 498 00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:23,000 Speaker 2: worry about a thing. Now, tell me what you make 499 00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:25,119 Speaker 2: of this lux and versus Winston thing in the trade 500 00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:27,280 Speaker 2: war comments. Is it as the Prime Minister says, a 501 00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:28,040 Speaker 2: media beat up? 502 00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:32,119 Speaker 15: I have to say I don't think it is. I 503 00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:36,720 Speaker 15: think it's probably inappropriate. Winston Peter's over the weekend making 504 00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:40,400 Speaker 15: these remarks that that calling the words that the Prime 505 00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:43,479 Speaker 15: Minister has been using hysterical and short sighted. Those weren't 506 00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:46,120 Speaker 15: directly at what the Prime Minister had been saying. They 507 00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:48,040 Speaker 15: were at people who were using similar words to what 508 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:49,919 Speaker 15: the Prime Minister had been using. So reading to that 509 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:53,359 Speaker 15: what you will, I think and you heard David Seymour 510 00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:56,400 Speaker 15: say it on the Country earlier today that the Prime 511 00:23:56,440 --> 00:24:00,280 Speaker 15: Minister is basically the de facto foreign minister and Black 512 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:02,840 Speaker 15: at least he should probably have his way when it 513 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:05,879 Speaker 15: comes to deciding which direction the country goes that and 514 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:09,720 Speaker 15: goes in and the foreign affairs kind of kind of world. 515 00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:11,959 Speaker 15: That said, I do, I do really think that that 516 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:14,040 Speaker 15: Winston has a point when it comes to the lack 517 00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:17,320 Speaker 15: of consultation. This is a big pivot, like the Prime 518 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:20,480 Speaker 15: Minister's decision to hit the phones to basically build this 519 00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:26,040 Speaker 15: anti unofficially anti Trump coalition of free traders. That is 520 00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:28,199 Speaker 15: a big decision for New Zealand to go out on 521 00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:30,480 Speaker 15: a limb and be one of the countries that is 522 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:34,240 Speaker 15: most notably in support of free trade and against what 523 00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:36,679 Speaker 15: the Americans are doing. And it probably would have been 524 00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:39,760 Speaker 15: wise if he'd circulated that amongst not just New Zealand first, 525 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:40,800 Speaker 15: but Act too the coalition. 526 00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:42,760 Speaker 2: But Thomas, this is not going to be a surprise 527 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:45,119 Speaker 2: to anybody that this is New Zealand's position on trade. 528 00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:48,040 Speaker 2: Right Well, we are one of the leading lights in 529 00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:50,399 Speaker 2: free trade. So what is Winston worried about? 530 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:53,000 Speaker 15: Yes, you're absolutely right. It would look quite ridiculous if 531 00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:55,240 Speaker 15: New Zealand came out and said where in support of 532 00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:58,000 Speaker 15: tariffs and cont knows what. I actually thought that the 533 00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:00,240 Speaker 15: Prime Minister's speech on Thursday was one of his best, 534 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:02,399 Speaker 15: where he said, you know, in the nineteen seventies, we 535 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:04,840 Speaker 15: tried to put up tariffs and shut the world out 536 00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:06,320 Speaker 15: and pretend that nothing was happening, and it was an 537 00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:11,439 Speaker 15: absolute disaster. And that's certainly a very accurate description of 538 00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:13,639 Speaker 15: what happened there. So yeah, there's no surprise that New 539 00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:15,639 Speaker 15: Zealand does a free trading country. We're probably one of 540 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:18,200 Speaker 15: the most free trading countries in the world. So there's 541 00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:20,679 Speaker 15: obviously our position. I think we're Winston's coming from and 542 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:23,840 Speaker 15: Winston Peters I should be more respectful and my new job, 543 00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:28,320 Speaker 15: the Foreign Minister, I think where he's coming from. Is 544 00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:31,159 Speaker 15: is it wise to be sticking a head above the 545 00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:32,600 Speaker 15: parapet you know? 546 00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:34,720 Speaker 16: Yeah? 547 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:36,520 Speaker 15: Yeah, And you know those remarks that that were made 548 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:38,600 Speaker 15: in the Rose Garden where Donald Trump's sort of like, well, look, 549 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:40,520 Speaker 15: these are your tariffs. But if you retaliate, and if 550 00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:42,879 Speaker 15: you the couples think well we can go further and farther, 551 00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:45,880 Speaker 15: and you think, right, well, I think we'll just take 552 00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:48,520 Speaker 15: our ten percent and just quietly go about our business. 553 00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:50,719 Speaker 15: And that's probably more where Winston Peters is coming. 554 00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:52,160 Speaker 2: And it's a fair point to say that the Prime 555 00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:54,680 Speaker 2: Minister is the de factor foreign minister and therefore should 556 00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 2: get his way, right, But if you are looking at 557 00:25:57,000 --> 00:25:59,440 Speaker 2: the two of them, you'd be dumb not to take 558 00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:03,000 Speaker 2: the advice Winston Peters, who is our most experienced foreign minister, right. 559 00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:05,600 Speaker 15: Yeah, And I think you know, Winston Peters has got 560 00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:07,800 Speaker 15: a really good read on on how the Trump administration 561 00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:10,880 Speaker 15: thinks and operates. I mean, and that's pretty difficult because 562 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:12,840 Speaker 15: the way it thinks and operates changes from out well. 563 00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:17,800 Speaker 15: And and certainly you know you've seen well you saw 564 00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:20,920 Speaker 15: a few weeks ago, right with with Ted Cruz getting 565 00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:24,880 Speaker 15: grumpy about that that that story in the Israeli newspapers 566 00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:29,720 Speaker 15: about Israeli citizens needing student paperwork to come to New Zealand. 567 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:31,199 Speaker 15: That was you know, wrong in the end, but he 568 00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:33,439 Speaker 15: got very grumpy and it turned into a massive pilava 569 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:36,359 Speaker 15: over in the States. You really want to not be 570 00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 15: on the Americans radar at the moment. They are they 571 00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:41,720 Speaker 15: are but trigger happy at the moment. And I think 572 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:44,400 Speaker 15: you know. That's that's certainly where Winston Peters is coming from. 573 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:46,119 Speaker 15: Regardless of the point I think the prime is the 574 00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:48,239 Speaker 15: point that Prime Minister is making most people agree with, 575 00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:50,800 Speaker 15: even labors that have and and people on the left. 576 00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:53,840 Speaker 15: There's a really bipartisan view that that we are a 577 00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:56,280 Speaker 15: free trading nation and what the Americans are doing right 578 00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:59,080 Speaker 15: now is bad for us. But but whether or not 579 00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:01,400 Speaker 15: you need to be drawing attention to it right now, 580 00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:04,119 Speaker 15: that is certainly something on which the Prime Minister and 581 00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 15: the Foreign min is that don't appear to be on 582 00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:05,760 Speaker 15: the same page. 583 00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:08,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, fair enough. Listen, I looked at this tourism funding announcement. 584 00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:10,560 Speaker 2: I thought, for nearly fourteen million bucks to bring about 585 00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:12,399 Speaker 2: twenty four thousand people here assumes like a hell of 586 00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:14,000 Speaker 2: a lot of money. It was a five hundred bucks 587 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:14,920 Speaker 2: per person, isn't it. 588 00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:15,560 Speaker 5: Yeah. 589 00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:17,760 Speaker 15: I haven't actually done done the math on that myself, 590 00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:21,879 Speaker 15: but yes, certainly it's I mean it's the tourism numbers 591 00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:25,320 Speaker 15: are down, but on COVID levels it's unclear to me, 592 00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:27,480 Speaker 15: and I'm not sure the Prime Minister made a strong 593 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:30,000 Speaker 15: case today as to whether it's the advertising and the 594 00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:32,760 Speaker 15: marketing that is responsible for them not coming here. When 595 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:35,760 Speaker 15: you look at the numbers, I think the biggest issue 596 00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:37,720 Speaker 15: is that China is currently having a bit of an 597 00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:40,440 Speaker 15: economic meltdown, which is probably another reason why you'd want 598 00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:43,040 Speaker 15: to be be careful with the Americans, because when you 599 00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:44,840 Speaker 15: look at our trade staff, it's the Americans who are 600 00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:46,639 Speaker 15: really driving the growth. At the moment, China is not 601 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:50,480 Speaker 15: really the golden goose it used to be. So really, 602 00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:53,359 Speaker 15: if we're looking to what's wrong with tourism, it's looking 603 00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:55,119 Speaker 15: at that China number, which I think is sitting at 604 00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:58,040 Speaker 15: about fifty percent yearly of pre COVID levels and thinking 605 00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:00,200 Speaker 15: how do we get that back to normal? Because again, 606 00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:03,120 Speaker 15: when you look at the American tourism numbers, European tourism numbers, 607 00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 15: Australian tourism numbers, they're all looking much better than they 608 00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:07,920 Speaker 15: used to be. So I'm not really sure it's a 609 00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:10,760 Speaker 15: marketing things, possibly some visa issues there, and then global 610 00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:11,439 Speaker 15: economic I. 611 00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:14,040 Speaker 2: You're right, Thomas, if you if you're talking about a 612 00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:16,400 Speaker 2: puddle amount like fourteen million dollars, then what you're really 613 00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:18,160 Speaker 2: doing is you just try to look like you're doing something, 614 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:19,960 Speaker 2: because that kind of money's not going to shift the market, 615 00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:21,240 Speaker 2: is it I. 616 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:27,040 Speaker 15: No? I. In short, I would I. Tourism is not 617 00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:31,359 Speaker 15: my my area of expertise, but it would be one 618 00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:33,320 Speaker 15: would think would be quite incredible if you had spend 619 00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:38,640 Speaker 15: fourteen million dollars in all of a sudden. I'm happy 620 00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:41,080 Speaker 15: to be proven wrong, happy to be proven wrong, but 621 00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:44,160 Speaker 15: at first blush, that seems that would seem unlikely. 622 00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:46,440 Speaker 2: Good on Thomas listening again. Congrats all the job. Really 623 00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:47,800 Speaker 2: looking forward to seeing how you go. I know you'll 624 00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:51,320 Speaker 2: be amazing. That's Thomas Coglan, the Herald's new political editor. 625 00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:52,720 Speaker 2: It's nine away from five. 626 00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:57,640 Speaker 1: Putting the tough questions to the newspakers, the mic asking breakfast. 627 00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:59,400 Speaker 2: The Prime Minister is with us for nine billion, the 628 00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 2: new money for defense. 629 00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:02,400 Speaker 14: What magic are you pulling out. 630 00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:04,640 Speaker 2: Of a hat to find that you're quite skeptical about 631 00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:07,480 Speaker 2: our whole your books and they don't look good. No, 632 00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:09,080 Speaker 2: look it is without our fiscal track. 633 00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 17: What it means is that we understand what we've committed 634 00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:13,520 Speaker 17: around delivering within our operating allowances. 635 00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:14,600 Speaker 2: You know you're going to have to come to you 636 00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:17,120 Speaker 2: here on the Monday after and then you're going to 637 00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:18,959 Speaker 2: know that's brilliant. 638 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:21,080 Speaker 13: You've actually wanted to do all of that defense. 639 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:23,080 Speaker 14: You've got your financial. 640 00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:24,800 Speaker 2: Unless you and I hope you can and your decision 641 00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 2: is a good one. But I just don't know where 642 00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:27,240 Speaker 2: the nine billion's coming from. 643 00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:29,200 Speaker 17: We're assured, we think we can manage it within our 644 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:30,480 Speaker 17: fiscal settings that we've got. 645 00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 1: Back Tomorrow at six am, the mic asking Breakfast with 646 00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:35,720 Speaker 1: the rain drove of the LAM News talk to ZMB. 647 00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:38,840 Speaker 2: Either what a surprise the media thinks it's not a 648 00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:40,560 Speaker 2: media beat up. I'm going to come back to this. 649 00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:42,160 Speaker 2: I think there's something to be said about that. I've 650 00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:44,000 Speaker 2: got to tell you about this first, Okay, Katy Perry, 651 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:47,720 Speaker 2: Lord God, the day we talk about Katie Perry on 652 00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:50,920 Speaker 2: the show Katy Perry, though, is a legitimate news story 653 00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:54,000 Speaker 2: because Katie Perry is going to space in just a 654 00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:56,800 Speaker 2: few hours. She is officially going to be what we 655 00:29:56,840 --> 00:30:00,560 Speaker 2: all thought she was, our space cadet. She's amped and 656 00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:03,240 Speaker 2: in a kind of like a woo wooh kind of 657 00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:03,600 Speaker 2: a way. 658 00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:12,040 Speaker 9: Te minus one day before I get to go to space. 659 00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:15,560 Speaker 9: I think, if you know me, you know that I'm 660 00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:21,000 Speaker 9: always looking for little confirmations from the heavens, from my guides, 661 00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:22,920 Speaker 9: from my angels. 662 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:25,560 Speaker 18: And so I'm in space training today and it's you know, 663 00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:28,800 Speaker 18: there's there's a lot to digest, and they reveal the 664 00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:33,560 Speaker 18: capsule name and the capsule's name is tortoise. 665 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:36,080 Speaker 2: Cool. Why is that significant? 666 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:42,040 Speaker 6: What are the chances that I'm going to space on 667 00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:46,120 Speaker 6: a rocket in a capsule with my symbol of the 668 00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:52,760 Speaker 6: feather called tortoise and my mom calls me tortoise. 669 00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:54,480 Speaker 1: Wow. 670 00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:57,360 Speaker 2: Thank god for everybody else on that flight that the 671 00:30:57,360 --> 00:31:00,960 Speaker 2: flight is only ten minutes long, because otherwise you'd have 672 00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:02,560 Speaker 2: to listen to lots of that checks. You just know 673 00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:04,600 Speaker 2: Katie's going to fill the whole ten minutes with talking 674 00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:10,320 Speaker 2: about being tortured like little tortoise girl. Oh wow, I've 675 00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:12,640 Speaker 2: asked this question. I still do not know the answer 676 00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:14,880 Speaker 2: to this question. What is the significance of sending Katy 677 00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:17,760 Speaker 2: Peiri to space other than to leave her there? Why 678 00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:19,719 Speaker 2: are we sending Katy Perry to space? Why is this? 679 00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:23,440 Speaker 2: Why is this even happening to us today? God only knows. Okay, 680 00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:25,400 Speaker 2: to go back to the media beat up, it is 681 00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:27,120 Speaker 2: not I know. The Prime Minister rolled out the line 682 00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:28,640 Speaker 2: saying today it is by the way, we're going to 683 00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:31,320 Speaker 2: talk about Katy Perry going to space in another hour 684 00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:33,520 Speaker 2: or so, because it is significance, like the first time 685 00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:36,440 Speaker 2: in how many years, sixty years, sixty years that the 686 00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:38,600 Speaker 2: only ladies have gone to space by themselves and there 687 00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:40,280 Speaker 2: hasn't been a dude. I know, I don't care about 688 00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:42,240 Speaker 2: that either, but other people do. Anyway, we'll talk about 689 00:31:42,240 --> 00:31:44,600 Speaker 2: that later. So on the Prime Minister saying it's a 690 00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:46,400 Speaker 2: media bet up, it's not a media beat up. It 691 00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:48,480 Speaker 2: is not a media beat up. When the Foreign Minister 692 00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:51,160 Speaker 2: says that the Prime Minister making phone calls to other 693 00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:54,400 Speaker 2: leaders around the world about the tariffs is premature, let 694 00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:55,640 Speaker 2: me remind you it's. 695 00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:57,760 Speaker 19: All very premature. Well, look, and we're trying to sort 696 00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:00,600 Speaker 19: out this other thing with America and China trade war, 697 00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:02,800 Speaker 19: I mean rushing off the solutions. That's fine on what 698 00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:03,480 Speaker 19: happened there first. 699 00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:05,600 Speaker 2: It's also not a media beat up. When the Foreign 700 00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:08,240 Speaker 2: Minister says, I hope that the Prime Minister gets my 701 00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:10,680 Speaker 2: message and he'll call me next time. I mean, that's 702 00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:13,800 Speaker 2: him pretty much telling Lutson off in public. And if 703 00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:15,800 Speaker 2: you're gonna be picking sides on this one, if you're like, oh, 704 00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:20,680 Speaker 2: I wonder who's right here, Christopher Luxon or Winston Peters 705 00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:22,720 Speaker 2: I think you have to go with Winston Peters. The 706 00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:26,000 Speaker 2: guy's been in the doing the foreign minister's job since 707 00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:28,800 Speaker 2: like before half this country was born, so he knows 708 00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:30,640 Speaker 2: what he's doing. I think he is the one if 709 00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:32,640 Speaker 2: you have to choose between the two of them. Anyway, 710 00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:34,520 Speaker 2: we'll talk to the foreign minister out of the foreign miners, 711 00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:38,160 Speaker 2: the finance baby brain Finance minister about that. After six, 712 00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:39,680 Speaker 2: Nichola Willis is going to be with us. We've got 713 00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:43,360 Speaker 2: the huddle as well. In studio today Tris Shurson's the 714 00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:46,280 Speaker 2: A teen Tris Sherson and Joseipe Bagani. But next up, 715 00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:48,440 Speaker 2: let's have a chat about this business dropping the old 716 00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:51,600 Speaker 2: second test for the driver's license. I don't know about you, 717 00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:54,120 Speaker 2: but I am not entirely sure why we're doing this, 718 00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:56,360 Speaker 2: and it doesn't fill me with confidence. News talks, v. 719 00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:28,840 Speaker 8: Jgstrial questions, answers, facts, analysis, the drive show you trust 720 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:32,920 Speaker 8: for the full picture, Heather Dupasy on Drive with One 721 00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:34,960 Speaker 8: New Zealand let's get connected. 722 00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:37,640 Speaker 1: News talks. That'd be good. 723 00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:39,960 Speaker 2: Afternoon to you. Now, getting your full license will no 724 00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:43,160 Speaker 2: longer require a final driving test if the government gets 725 00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:45,720 Speaker 2: his way. They're considering dropping the test because it's quote 726 00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:49,160 Speaker 2: time consuming and inefficient. Harold Luvenberg is the owner of 727 00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:52,400 Speaker 2: a one driving school and is with us. Now, Hey, Harold, Hello, 728 00:33:52,560 --> 00:33:54,200 Speaker 2: how are you. I'm very well? Thank you. Good idea 729 00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:55,360 Speaker 2: to drop this final test? 730 00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:58,600 Speaker 20: No, I don't think so. No, it is really good 731 00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:01,400 Speaker 20: to have the extra test and getting people like if 732 00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:06,200 Speaker 20: people have lost that the standard, have dropped their standard 733 00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:08,640 Speaker 20: are driving, it's good to do another test and to 734 00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:10,200 Speaker 20: just get back up to the standard again. 735 00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:12,960 Speaker 2: The government says the reason that they're doing this is 736 00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:16,359 Speaker 2: because it's expensive and it's also stressful for people. But 737 00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:18,800 Speaker 2: neither of those things are generally things I would consider 738 00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:21,080 Speaker 2: this government to be too worried about. I don't buy it, 739 00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:24,160 Speaker 2: do you. 740 00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:23,799 Speaker 20: No, I don't think so either. 741 00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:23,880 Speaker 1: No. 742 00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:26,160 Speaker 20: And I can't see the the stress. I mean, I 743 00:34:26,239 --> 00:34:28,960 Speaker 20: suppose every test can be stressful, but if you're well 744 00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:31,799 Speaker 20: prepare it, then it shouldn't be stressful at all, like 745 00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:32,360 Speaker 20: any test. 746 00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:34,160 Speaker 2: So what's the real reason that they're dropping it. 747 00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:38,960 Speaker 20: Well, I'm not sure. Actually, I think it's more what 748 00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:41,520 Speaker 20: the rest of the world is doing. Like the rest 749 00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:43,440 Speaker 20: of the world, there's only one driving test, so that's 750 00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:45,319 Speaker 20: probably what they want to get more in line with. 751 00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:48,160 Speaker 2: How many people do you fail in that test? 752 00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:52,439 Speaker 20: Well, we don't do the testing ourselves, but I mean, 753 00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:56,000 Speaker 20: I don't have the results for that in front of me. 754 00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:58,120 Speaker 20: But it's not as high as the restricted license test 755 00:34:58,160 --> 00:34:59,760 Speaker 20: because it is a much easier test. 756 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,319 Speaker 2: But I mean, basically what I'm asking is is this 757 00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:05,320 Speaker 2: test actually weeding out bad drivers? I like a significant 758 00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:07,640 Speaker 2: number of people being failed and kept off the road, 759 00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:08,640 Speaker 2: because that's terrible. 760 00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:14,640 Speaker 20: That's a good question. It's just bad habits. So I 761 00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:17,560 Speaker 20: suppose people just have bad habits and a lot of 762 00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:20,279 Speaker 20: it is in observation. People are just not using not 763 00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:23,880 Speaker 20: looking around them properly and not scanning properly at intersections 764 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:28,080 Speaker 20: and making poor decisions. That really a big one which 765 00:35:28,120 --> 00:35:29,239 Speaker 20: causes a lot of accidents. 766 00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:31,680 Speaker 2: Harold, thank you very much, Really appreciate your exercise. It's 767 00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:34,080 Speaker 2: Harold Livenberg, who's the owner and a driving instructor at 768 00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:35,120 Speaker 2: a one driving school. 769 00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:36,520 Speaker 1: Heather Duplessy. 770 00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:39,840 Speaker 2: LA government announced it's pumping thirteen and a half million 771 00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:43,040 Speaker 2: dollars into a global marketing campaign to attract more tourists 772 00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:47,840 Speaker 2: into the country. The Tourism Minister Louise upstairs with me. Louise, Hello, Hello, 773 00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:50,040 Speaker 2: welcome back. Oh mate, thank you very much. Good to 774 00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:52,480 Speaker 2: chat to you again. Are you worried, just before we 775 00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:54,880 Speaker 2: get into this money that you're pumping into the marketing campaign, 776 00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:57,200 Speaker 2: you worried about those numbers that came out today showing 777 00:35:57,200 --> 00:35:59,320 Speaker 2: a drop off in Chinese tourists in February. 778 00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:02,879 Speaker 17: Well, we do know that the China numbers are down. 779 00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:06,400 Speaker 17: They're down at sixty percent of the twenty nineteen numbers, 780 00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:09,879 Speaker 17: which is why we need to do some focused campaigns 781 00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:13,399 Speaker 17: to bring the China market back. But look, we've also 782 00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:17,080 Speaker 17: seen really positive numbers from India and a record month 783 00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:20,440 Speaker 17: for visitors out of the United States, so you know, 784 00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:23,879 Speaker 17: there's some very positive signs there. But this campaign, this 785 00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:27,640 Speaker 17: additional marketing money, will mean that we can have specific 786 00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:32,800 Speaker 17: campaigns into different countries looking at whether we're like China 787 00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:36,320 Speaker 17: trying to bring the numbers back. India is an emerging 788 00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:39,319 Speaker 17: market and we need to focus our marketing efforts a 789 00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:41,040 Speaker 17: bit more in a bit more tailored way. 790 00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:43,600 Speaker 2: Is that enough money to actually move the market. 791 00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:45,240 Speaker 5: Oh? 792 00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:48,200 Speaker 17: Absolutely, Look, we know and a big part of what 793 00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:51,279 Speaker 17: we've seen with the encouraging signs out of the Australia 794 00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:56,399 Speaker 17: campaign is working with industry really closely. When we work 795 00:36:56,440 --> 00:37:00,319 Speaker 17: on things together, we can rarely move the dial. And look, 796 00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:02,759 Speaker 17: we're only at eighty six percent of the number of 797 00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:05,600 Speaker 17: visitors we had back in twenty nineteen, so there's lots 798 00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:09,400 Speaker 17: of capacity and so we want to have more visitors 799 00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:13,440 Speaker 17: come in. That's more business for the hospitality sector, but 800 00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:18,160 Speaker 17: also shops, supermarkets, petrol stations, you name it. And we've 801 00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:21,200 Speaker 17: got capacity and so we just want to let the 802 00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:22,720 Speaker 17: world know we're open for business. 803 00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:25,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, fair enough, Okay, Louise, listen, thank you very much, 804 00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:28,319 Speaker 2: really appreciated. This is Louise Upston, Tourism Minister. It's eleven 805 00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:32,120 Speaker 2: past five here the duplessy out. The driving can be stressful. 806 00:37:32,160 --> 00:37:35,759 Speaker 2: Driving is stressful. Driving is stressful, and tests are stressful. 807 00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:38,200 Speaker 2: So the combo of the two is particularly stressful. But 808 00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:39,400 Speaker 2: I don't know if you find this if you just 809 00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:42,239 Speaker 2: turn the radio down a little bit, I shouldn't be 810 00:37:42,320 --> 00:37:44,120 Speaker 2: encouraging this. You turn the radio down a little bit, 811 00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:47,000 Speaker 2: so some weird reason you can see better. Do you 812 00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:49,920 Speaker 2: find that? I often find when I'm stressed out, I 813 00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:52,440 Speaker 2: can't drive right now, I'll turn that radio down. The 814 00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:55,840 Speaker 2: oh suddenly I can see quite well. And it's a 815 00:37:55,880 --> 00:37:58,120 Speaker 2: sign of old age. I think kind of a bit 816 00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:00,720 Speaker 2: of a random text here on the in New Zealand 817 00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:02,960 Speaker 2: uniforms from last week, whether we do not like the 818 00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:05,440 Speaker 2: new look in New Zealand uniforms at all. That's from Pauline. 819 00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:08,640 Speaker 2: Caught my attention because actually, incidentally, Louise, who we just 820 00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:12,239 Speaker 2: spoke to, Louise the Tourism Minister, and I were both 821 00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:15,680 Speaker 2: at the unveiling of the New Zealand uniforms.

I'm that now that I'm allowed 824 00:38:19,640 --> 00:38:21,760 Speaker 2: to drink again, because I'm you know, baby's not inside 825 00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:26,319 Speaker 2: me anymore on that. Just give it time, Just give 826 00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:29,439 Speaker 2: it time. We're weirdly attached to these uniforms. Give it time. 827 00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:31,719 Speaker 2: You didn't like the Trey Lease uniform when it came out, 828 00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:34,400 Speaker 2: yet you jumped up and down about that fifteen years ago, 829 00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:36,440 Speaker 2: didn't you. You said, oh it's hideous, and now you 830 00:38:36,520 --> 00:38:37,879 Speaker 2: love it because you can see it in the app 831 00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:39,719 Speaker 2: we walk around, you know exactly who you're looking at 832 00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:42,920 Speaker 2: when you see that gigantic cacophony of noise coming at you. 833 00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:45,439 Speaker 2: So when we will get used to the purple ones 834 00:38:45,480 --> 00:38:47,600 Speaker 2: and the pin stripe suits, which are incredibly dashing and 835 00:38:47,600 --> 00:38:49,799 Speaker 2: we will learn to love them, just give them time. 836 00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:52,200 Speaker 13: Speaking from experience, how do you recommend people have a 837 00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:56,359 Speaker 13: fancy cocktail before they look at the uniform. 838 00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:56,520 Speaker 2: Because of what it does is make some of those 839 00:38:56,560 --> 00:38:59,239 Speaker 2: patents swirl. And when the patterns starts swirling, because you've 840 00:38:59,239 --> 00:39:00,720 Speaker 2: had a very strong coplas when. 841 00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:02,839 Speaker 13: It really you're going to see them on the plane. 842 00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:03,719 Speaker 13: And what do you do on the plane? 843 00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:05,680 Speaker 2: You drink, you know, as right, And if you have 844 00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:07,960 Speaker 2: one gin on the plane, it's the equivalent of three 845 00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:11,200 Speaker 2: gens on land. So those patterns swirl like you wouldn't believe. 846 00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:13,560 Speaker 2: So yeah, I would recommend. Obviously I am not a 847 00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:15,920 Speaker 2: medical professional. Do not listen to me, but I reckon 848 00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:17,640 Speaker 2: meand a couple of gins. Look at that uniform. You 849 00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:21,160 Speaker 2: love it? Thirteen past five. Hey, One New Zealand satellite 850 00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:23,320 Speaker 2: is officially here right now and it is a game 851 00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:24,120 Speaker 2: changer for the living. 852 00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:24,439 Speaker 8: Now. 853 00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:27,319 Speaker 2: I say the living because One New Zealand has just 854 00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:29,799 Speaker 2: received a bit of a bizarre endorsement as the most 855 00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:33,840 Speaker 2: zombie resilient network. This is from the hilariously real Zombie 856 00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:38,719 Speaker 2: Research society which studies disaster response through an apocalyptic lens, 857 00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:40,960 Speaker 2: and they've awarded this endorsement following the launch of One 858 00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:43,400 Speaker 2: New Zealand satellite last year. Now they reckon that the 859 00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:46,799 Speaker 2: innovative technology offers a more resilient communication network in the 860 00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:50,319 Speaker 2: face of disaster due to its groundbreaking use of satellites 861 00:39:50,520 --> 00:39:52,560 Speaker 2: in space rather than the cell towers on the ground. 862 00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:55,239 Speaker 2: Now the service allows customers with an eligible phone and 863 00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:58,080 Speaker 2: plan who are out of traditional cell tower coverage to 864 00:39:58,120 --> 00:39:59,759 Speaker 2: send and receive texts when they have a line of 865 00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:02,320 Speaker 2: sol to the sky.

So to learn more about how One 868 00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:10,600 Speaker 2: New Zealand satellite can help you stay safer, better connected 869 00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:15,279 Speaker 2: and more productive, visit one dot nz forward slash satellite 870 00:40:15,719 --> 00:40:19,080 Speaker 2: together do for Sea al sixteen past five Listen. Of course, 871 00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:22,040 Speaker 2: some heaps of us will have watched Polkinghorn documentary last night, 872 00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:23,680 Speaker 2: so we have a little chat about that in just 873 00:40:23,719 --> 00:40:26,520 Speaker 2: a few minutes time. First up, though, if you're one 874 00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:29,719 Speaker 2: of the people in this world who enjoy using the 875 00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:32,000 Speaker 2: text abbreviations, you need to stop in you know, what 876 00:40:32,040 --> 00:40:36,279 Speaker 2: I'm talking about here, right, Sending things like brb lol 877 00:40:36,719 --> 00:40:39,479 Speaker 2: or wyd what you're doing? It's got to stop because 878 00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:41,200 Speaker 2: new research out of the US has found that no 879 00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:43,759 Speaker 2: matter how much you think that the rest of us 880 00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:47,320 Speaker 2: like reading your text abbreviations, we do not. Dr Ariana 881 00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:50,280 Speaker 2: Berardi Wiltshire is a linguistics expert at for Massi University 882 00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:53,600 Speaker 2: and with US. Now, Hello, Hi, what's the problem. Why 883 00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:55,400 Speaker 2: does it annoy us? Is because the person sending it 884 00:40:55,440 --> 00:40:56,480 Speaker 2: to us just looks lazy. 885 00:40:57,719 --> 00:40:57,919 Speaker 7: Ah. 886 00:40:58,040 --> 00:41:02,400 Speaker 16: Yes, that's basically the thought of it. It's it seems 887 00:41:02,440 --> 00:41:07,200 Speaker 16: to signal poor investment in whatever communication we're engaging with, So. 888 00:41:08,760 --> 00:41:09,520 Speaker 21: You couldn't even. 889 00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:11,799 Speaker 16: Take the time to spell that out completely. That's kind 890 00:41:11,800 --> 00:41:14,000 Speaker 16: of the feeling that that we get. Is that really 891 00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:14,720 Speaker 16: most situation? 892 00:41:14,840 --> 00:41:16,640 Speaker 2: I mean I would look at it if somebody had 893 00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:18,000 Speaker 2: seemed it to me, I would just not think that 894 00:41:18,040 --> 00:41:20,440 Speaker 2: they're a particularly serious person, do you know what I mean? 895 00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:22,640 Speaker 2: It feels like something that a twelve year old would 896 00:41:22,640 --> 00:41:25,600 Speaker 2: seem somebody else. Yeah, And is that part of it, right? 897 00:41:25,719 --> 00:41:29,280 Speaker 16: Yes? Yes, it's also part of it. Yes, It's sometimes 898 00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:31,680 Speaker 16: you get the feeling when they use when people use 899 00:41:31,719 --> 00:41:35,880 Speaker 16: to too many abbreviations that they're trying too hard to 900 00:41:37,040 --> 00:41:39,520 Speaker 16: kind of convey some sort of you know, sense of 901 00:41:39,640 --> 00:41:44,319 Speaker 16: view or you know, and no. But but people seem 902 00:41:44,400 --> 00:41:47,160 Speaker 16: to do it less and less anyway, even younger people 903 00:41:47,160 --> 00:41:49,960 Speaker 16: these days, they tend to use abbreviations less and less. 904 00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:52,480 Speaker 2: Why do you think that is, Well. 905 00:41:52,200 --> 00:41:55,680 Speaker 16: It's technology has changed now, we have predictive spelling, we 906 00:41:55,800 --> 00:41:59,160 Speaker 16: have four keyboards on our phones. So and also I 907 00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:01,640 Speaker 16: think that there's a is that young people are much 908 00:42:01,719 --> 00:42:06,279 Speaker 16: more relationally aware than people were in the past, and 909 00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:09,640 Speaker 16: so they know quite often. I have two teenage daughters. 910 00:42:09,680 --> 00:42:13,239 Speaker 16: Actually they know quite often when it's appropriate to use 911 00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:17,040 Speaker 16: them and when it's not. And you know, that's reassuring. 912 00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:19,520 Speaker 2: Seems to me also that because you were talking about 913 00:42:19,520 --> 00:42:21,640 Speaker 2: predictive texting, right, and the order correct that you have 914 00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:24,160 Speaker 2: on your phones and stuff, you actually would have to 915 00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:27,279 Speaker 2: make more of an effort to say s R R 916 00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:30,640 Speaker 2: Y on your phone than to say sorry, true, wouldn't you? 917 00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:35,960 Speaker 16: Yeah, it's true, yes, exactly, yes, exactly. You're doing it 918 00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:38,759 Speaker 16: for a purpose. And sometimes there is a purpose why 919 00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:43,200 Speaker 16: you would use abbreviations. And sometimes it's humor. You want 920 00:42:43,239 --> 00:42:48,120 Speaker 16: to be funny or so people use ong a lot, 921 00:42:49,400 --> 00:42:51,960 Speaker 16: but sometimes they just want to be quick. You know, 922 00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:56,280 Speaker 16: I'm guilty of having used the occasional K with my children. 923 00:42:56,280 --> 00:42:58,160 Speaker 16: You know you can you pick up milk on the 924 00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:02,440 Speaker 16: way home K. So you know there are users for it. 925 00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:05,759 Speaker 2: But yeah, jesus, my mum just sent me a K. 926 00:43:05,920 --> 00:43:08,399 Speaker 2: I'd hang up on her. Hey, Arianna, thank you, thank 927 00:43:08,400 --> 00:43:11,680 Speaker 2: you very much, Doctor Arianna Berardi woolshit, who's a linguistics 928 00:43:11,680 --> 00:43:15,520 Speaker 2: expert at Massi University. Sir Peter Peter straight on the 929 00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:18,040 Speaker 2: old Texpachie couldn't wait a he was on nine two 930 00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:20,840 Speaker 2: nine two, just sent me an ffs. Now, there's a 931 00:43:20,880 --> 00:43:23,360 Speaker 2: carve out for that. You are allowed to do that one. 932 00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:25,200 Speaker 2: And simply you're allowed to do that one because I 933 00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:27,120 Speaker 2: don't know if you've tried to spell swear words on 934 00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:29,279 Speaker 2: your iPhone, but they make that very difficult and so 935 00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:31,960 Speaker 2: if you just go for the old ffs, I understand 936 00:43:32,120 --> 00:43:34,360 Speaker 2: that actually is a shortcut. Five twenty. 937 00:43:36,080 --> 00:43:40,880 Speaker 1: Informed inside into today's issues. It's Heather Duplicy Ellen Drive 938 00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:44,600 Speaker 1: with one New Zealand let's get connected news talk. 939 00:43:44,640 --> 00:43:47,600 Speaker 2: Sa'd be just a reminder. Nichola Willis the Finance Minister 940 00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:49,520 Speaker 2: with US after six o'clock. Right now, it's twenty two 941 00:43:49,600 --> 00:43:54,040 Speaker 2: past five. Now, Polkinghorn looks to me like old mate Polk. 942 00:43:54,040 --> 00:43:57,080 Speaker 2: He's already realized he's made a mistake talking to that documentary, 943 00:43:57,120 --> 00:43:59,759 Speaker 2: don't you think. I mean the first clue that he realizes, 944 00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:01,680 Speaker 2: I think that he's made a mistake is that he 945 00:44:01,719 --> 00:44:05,319 Speaker 2: sent out a statement calling the documentary clickbait and saying 946 00:44:05,360 --> 00:44:07,600 Speaker 2: he was misled by some involved in the making of 947 00:44:07,640 --> 00:44:09,640 Speaker 2: the doco before the thing had even gone to air, 948 00:44:09,920 --> 00:44:11,759 Speaker 2: which is to say he's already talking the thing down 949 00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:14,239 Speaker 2: before we've even managed to clap one eyeball on it. 950 00:44:14,480 --> 00:44:17,000 Speaker 2: Now I can see, having watched the first episode why 951 00:44:17,040 --> 00:44:18,560 Speaker 2: he might want to talk it down, because he's not 952 00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:20,399 Speaker 2: coming out of this well, is he. I mean, as 953 00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:22,120 Speaker 2: I say, I've only watched one episode and there are 954 00:44:22,120 --> 00:44:24,680 Speaker 2: two more to go, And look, he may remarkably ride 955 00:44:24,840 --> 00:44:28,640 Speaker 2: him himself in the next two episodes, but based on 956 00:44:28,719 --> 00:44:31,440 Speaker 2: number one and the trial, I'm not getting mister honesty 957 00:44:31,520 --> 00:44:34,839 Speaker 2: vibes from our mate Philip Pulkinghorn here. I think the 958 00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:37,360 Speaker 2: most telling moment for me, anyway, was when he was 959 00:44:37,360 --> 00:44:39,960 Speaker 2: in episode one, when he was denying the fact that 960 00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:41,960 Speaker 2: he used p because he said he doesn't generally keep 961 00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:45,120 Speaker 2: his methamphetamin in the makeup draw somebody else's. And then 962 00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:47,440 Speaker 2: after saying that his lies darted from one side to 963 00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:49,279 Speaker 2: the other, do you notice that one side to the 964 00:44:49,280 --> 00:44:52,319 Speaker 2: other and looking a bit interesting, like in a way 965 00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:55,080 Speaker 2: those eyes darted around in a way that suggested that 966 00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:57,960 Speaker 2: there was more to that story than he was letting on. Now, 967 00:44:58,040 --> 00:44:59,840 Speaker 2: he if he is worried like I think he is 968 00:44:59,840 --> 00:45:01,919 Speaker 2: a about this documentary, he's right to be worried about 969 00:45:01,960 --> 00:45:04,840 Speaker 2: this documentary. It's not going to affect his freedom or 970 00:45:04,880 --> 00:45:07,520 Speaker 2: as criminal record or anything like that, but it does 971 00:45:07,560 --> 00:45:10,480 Speaker 2: have the potential to shape public opinion even more strongly 972 00:45:10,800 --> 00:45:12,680 Speaker 2: than the trial already has, and in a way that 973 00:45:12,719 --> 00:45:15,160 Speaker 2: the trial already hasn't. Because that's what we've learned from 974 00:45:15,160 --> 00:45:18,840 Speaker 2: the UK recently. The post Office scandal was not really 975 00:45:18,880 --> 00:45:21,920 Speaker 2: a scandal until they made a TV show about the 976 00:45:21,920 --> 00:45:23,799 Speaker 2: post Office scandal, and then it was a big time 977 00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:26,800 Speaker 2: scandal and then there was action from the government on it. Adolescence, 978 00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:29,160 Speaker 2: which has come out on Netflix, is something that we 979 00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:30,960 Speaker 2: are talking about in a big way now and talking 980 00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:33,399 Speaker 2: about what young men are doing with their time. This 981 00:45:33,480 --> 00:45:37,200 Speaker 2: documentary is the first time that we've heard from Philip Pulkinghorn. 982 00:45:37,480 --> 00:45:39,440 Speaker 2: It's the first time that we've heard from his hooker 983 00:45:39,480 --> 00:45:42,040 Speaker 2: mistress in the flesh. It's the first time that a 984 00:45:42,040 --> 00:45:44,040 Speaker 2: lot of us are going to see all of the 985 00:45:44,080 --> 00:45:46,680 Speaker 2: evidence presented in one place in a concise way for 986 00:45:46,760 --> 00:45:48,799 Speaker 2: us to form judgments on. So, yeah, he might be 987 00:45:48,880 --> 00:45:51,680 Speaker 2: right judge based on the first episode. There's a lot 988 00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:54,520 Speaker 2: of clickbait going on in this thing, But that doesn't 989 00:45:54,560 --> 00:45:56,879 Speaker 2: mean it won't shape public opinion, and it doesn't mean 990 00:45:56,880 --> 00:45:58,840 Speaker 2: that it was a smart idea for him in hindsight 991 00:45:59,160 --> 00:45:59,759 Speaker 2: to talk to. 992 00:45:59,719 --> 00:46:02,279 Speaker 1: It for ever duplessy Ellen, Oh the. 993 00:46:02,280 --> 00:46:05,799 Speaker 2: Way, just on that, Okay, So this is Philip Polkinghorn saying, Oh, 994 00:46:05,880 --> 00:46:08,440 Speaker 2: in hindsight, he could kind of see that his wife 995 00:46:08,520 --> 00:46:11,600 Speaker 2: was gonna, you know, say goodbye to the world herself, 996 00:46:11,719 --> 00:46:14,960 Speaker 2: because she was behaving strangely in the days leading up 997 00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:15,279 Speaker 2: to it. 998 00:46:15,400 --> 00:46:18,719 Speaker 4: I just don't know what she was doing, almost like 999 00:46:19,040 --> 00:46:22,520 Speaker 4: tiling up for affairs, saying goodbye to people. 1000 00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:23,839 Speaker 5: Maybe I don't know. 1001 00:46:24,600 --> 00:46:28,120 Speaker 2: Hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on. So is 1002 00:46:28,160 --> 00:46:31,440 Speaker 2: she saying goodbye in the days and weeks leading up 1003 00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:34,479 Speaker 2: to the death, or did she get the COVID jab 1004 00:46:34,480 --> 00:46:37,640 Speaker 2: and then get in cyphalitis and then go psychotic overnight. 1005 00:46:37,760 --> 00:46:40,160 Speaker 2: Which of them was it polky? Was it in the 1006 00:46:40,200 --> 00:46:42,120 Speaker 2: days and weeks leading up or was it overnight after 1007 00:46:42,160 --> 00:46:46,240 Speaker 2: the COVID jet just saying I'm not even a police officer, 1008 00:46:46,280 --> 00:46:47,960 Speaker 2: and I can see that there's a problem there with 1009 00:46:47,960 --> 00:46:50,840 Speaker 2: that particular story, don't you think. Now we've got huddle 1010 00:46:50,880 --> 00:46:53,520 Speaker 2: coming in this evening. Got two ladies, Trishuson and Joseph A. Ganning. 1011 00:46:53,560 --> 00:46:55,560 Speaker 2: I've got one for them, mackay. Because I was reading 1012 00:46:55,600 --> 00:46:59,400 Speaker 2: the newspapers today, as you do in this job nowadays, 1013 00:46:59,880 --> 00:47:02,320 Speaker 2: I saw on one news site, like not one news, 1014 00:47:02,320 --> 00:47:04,640 Speaker 2: but on one of the news sites, a question that 1015 00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:08,279 Speaker 2: was posed, should we normalize couples sleeping in separate beds? 1016 00:47:08,320 --> 00:47:09,880 Speaker 2: I'm going to get in so much trouble for this. 1017 00:47:11,080 --> 00:47:13,960 Speaker 2: I think it's fine. I think it's fine because this 1018 00:47:14,000 --> 00:47:16,520 Speaker 2: is how we're rolling at the moment. Personally, I sleep 1019 00:47:16,640 --> 00:47:19,840 Speaker 2: because now that I'm on I'm back at work, not 1020 00:47:19,880 --> 00:47:22,239 Speaker 2: on maternity leave, and the father's now on paternity leave. 1021 00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:25,760 Speaker 2: So I'm downstairs where all the bedrooms are sleeping across 1022 00:47:25,800 --> 00:47:27,680 Speaker 2: the hallway from the three year old, you know, keeping 1023 00:47:27,760 --> 00:47:31,399 Speaker 2: him safe, and the father is upstairs completely different floor 1024 00:47:31,400 --> 00:47:32,719 Speaker 2: because I don't want to hear the baby crying in 1025 00:47:32,719 --> 00:47:34,640 Speaker 2: the middle of the night, do you know. So the 1026 00:47:34,719 --> 00:47:37,160 Speaker 2: dad's upstairs with the baby in a room by himself, 1027 00:47:37,239 --> 00:47:39,799 Speaker 2: in his own bed, right in his own bed, and 1028 00:47:39,880 --> 00:47:43,759 Speaker 2: I'm downstairs in another bed, and it is delightful, isn't it? 1029 00:47:44,040 --> 00:47:46,239 Speaker 2: Because you number one, you don't need to hear that 1030 00:47:46,320 --> 00:47:48,200 Speaker 2: baby cry. It's only three months old, so there's a 1031 00:47:48,239 --> 00:47:50,640 Speaker 2: lot of crying going on. Number Two, I don't have 1032 00:47:50,680 --> 00:47:53,560 Speaker 2: to listen to snoring, And to be fair, he doesn't 1033 00:47:53,560 --> 00:47:55,920 Speaker 2: have to listen to snoring either, because I'm not immune. 1034 00:47:55,960 --> 00:47:59,279 Speaker 2: I'm sure there's no disturbance from somebody else getting up 1035 00:47:59,280 --> 00:48:01,680 Speaker 2: weeing in the night, is there? Anyway? The reason I'm 1036 00:48:01,680 --> 00:48:03,600 Speaker 2: asking about this is because when I read that headline, 1037 00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:07,160 Speaker 2: I thought, oh, jeez, yeah, the minute you say to 1038 00:48:07,200 --> 00:48:09,279 Speaker 2: anybody and we're sleeping in different rooms at the moment, 1039 00:48:09,320 --> 00:48:11,560 Speaker 2: people go, oh, that's headed for divorce, isn't it? 1040 00:48:11,600 --> 00:48:12,040 Speaker 8: Is it though? 1041 00:48:12,600 --> 00:48:15,040 Speaker 2: Is it headed for divorce? Or is it just two 1042 00:48:15,040 --> 00:48:16,920 Speaker 2: adults going, you know what we need? We need to 1043 00:48:16,960 --> 00:48:18,759 Speaker 2: prioritize sleep at the moment, and this is a really 1044 00:48:18,760 --> 00:48:20,399 Speaker 2: good way of doing things anyway. I don't know whether 1045 00:48:20,400 --> 00:48:23,000 Speaker 2: the girls know that we're about to interrogate what happens 1046 00:48:23,000 --> 00:48:25,440 Speaker 2: in their houses and their bedrooms, but we are, so 1047 00:48:25,880 --> 00:48:27,880 Speaker 2: you're welcome to weigh on that too. Nine two nine 1048 00:48:27,960 --> 00:48:28,800 Speaker 2: two is the text number. 1049 00:48:28,960 --> 00:49:00,960 Speaker 14: News is next. 1050 00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:52,759 Speaker 1: On the iHeart app and in your car on your 1051 00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:56,680 Speaker 1: drive home, it's hither duplicy Ellen drive with one New 1052 00:48:56,760 --> 00:48:59,400 Speaker 1: Zealand let's get connected news talks. 1053 00:48:59,440 --> 00:49:06,279 Speaker 8: That'd be there's beautiful things that I've gone. 1054 00:49:06,320 --> 00:49:08,360 Speaker 2: All right, the huddles with us very shortly, we have 1055 00:49:08,520 --> 00:49:11,120 Speaker 2: pressures and in Joseph Ghanian studio and after six o'clock 1056 00:49:11,200 --> 00:49:15,879 Speaker 2: Nicklaula's finance minister. If you followed this program last year 1057 00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:17,480 Speaker 2: when I was last on air, you will know that 1058 00:49:17,520 --> 00:49:19,600 Speaker 2: I got quite hot under the collar about the old 1059 00:49:19,640 --> 00:49:22,000 Speaker 2: formula infant formula rules. It looks like the government might 1060 00:49:22,040 --> 00:49:23,440 Speaker 2: be doing a U turn on it. So we have 1061 00:49:23,480 --> 00:49:25,680 Speaker 2: a chat to Nikolauless about that after six o'clock. It's 1062 00:49:25,680 --> 00:49:29,839 Speaker 2: twenty four away from six. Right now. We have hit 1063 00:49:29,880 --> 00:49:32,120 Speaker 2: the age of space travel where it's not just professional 1064 00:49:32,200 --> 00:49:34,759 Speaker 2: astronauts and the billionaires and stuff going into space, but 1065 00:49:34,800 --> 00:49:39,120 Speaker 2: it's also Katy Perry Katy Perry's going along with Gail 1066 00:49:39,239 --> 00:49:41,000 Speaker 2: King and four other women and they're going to go 1067 00:49:41,040 --> 00:49:43,040 Speaker 2: up in a in a Blue Origin rocket in just 1068 00:49:43,080 --> 00:49:45,200 Speaker 2: a few hours. And it's the first all women's space 1069 00:49:45,239 --> 00:49:47,880 Speaker 2: flight in more than sixty years, which apparently is quite significant. 1070 00:49:48,040 --> 00:49:51,000 Speaker 2: Kirby Ken is the chair of the National Space Society 1071 00:49:51,040 --> 00:49:51,880 Speaker 2: Australia and with us. 1072 00:49:51,920 --> 00:49:55,719 Speaker 22: Hey Kirby him, welcome, Thank you for having you on. 1073 00:49:55,800 --> 00:49:57,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, thanks for joining us. Why are we sending Katy 1074 00:49:58,040 --> 00:49:59,920 Speaker 2: Perry to space? What's the value in that? 1075 00:50:01,320 --> 00:50:04,759 Speaker 22: I believe it is her wanting to go rather than 1076 00:50:05,320 --> 00:50:08,480 Speaker 22: being sent, so to speak. I think they're all sort 1077 00:50:08,480 --> 00:50:11,480 Speaker 22: of passengers who are choosing to have an experience. 1078 00:50:12,280 --> 00:50:12,920 Speaker 2: Are they paying? 1079 00:50:14,880 --> 00:50:15,359 Speaker 22: Most of them? 1080 00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:15,520 Speaker 16: Are? 1081 00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:15,759 Speaker 3: As? 1082 00:50:15,760 --> 00:50:16,480 Speaker 22: I understand it. 1083 00:50:16,600 --> 00:50:18,520 Speaker 2: Oh, okay, well that makes a lot more sense. I 1084 00:50:18,520 --> 00:50:20,560 Speaker 2: thought we've picked this one and so we're sending it. 1085 00:50:20,600 --> 00:50:22,600 Speaker 2: I thought maybe it's for some publicity, but I suppose 1086 00:50:22,600 --> 00:50:25,080 Speaker 2: it probably does that as well. Are you are you really? Actually? 1087 00:50:25,160 --> 00:50:27,439 Speaker 2: Can you say that you're up in space like you've 1088 00:50:27,480 --> 00:50:29,960 Speaker 2: done a space trip if you've only been up there 1089 00:50:29,960 --> 00:50:30,600 Speaker 2: for ten minutes. 1090 00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:34,279 Speaker 22: It's a very good question. There's also the definition of 1091 00:50:34,320 --> 00:50:37,960 Speaker 22: what is space now technically, and this is somewhat arbitrary. 1092 00:50:38,239 --> 00:50:42,640 Speaker 22: Accepted definition is above one hundred kilometers. Yeah, and the 1093 00:50:42,680 --> 00:50:48,160 Speaker 22: Blue Origin capsules do actually go above that level, but 1094 00:50:48,360 --> 00:50:51,920 Speaker 22: it's what's called a suborbital trip. You're not actually in 1095 00:50:52,239 --> 00:50:54,799 Speaker 22: orbit and going all the way around the Earth, which 1096 00:50:54,880 --> 00:50:58,680 Speaker 22: is what would be orbiting. And that's slightly different to 1097 00:50:58,719 --> 00:51:01,600 Speaker 22: the virgin galactic experience, which doesn't quite make it to 1098 00:51:01,680 --> 00:51:05,960 Speaker 22: one hundred kilometers. So it's a little bit of pickiness, 1099 00:51:05,960 --> 00:51:08,280 Speaker 22: but it is technically in space. 1100 00:51:08,480 --> 00:51:10,360 Speaker 2: Kulbe you ever been up there? You've been to space? 1101 00:51:11,560 --> 00:51:13,879 Speaker 22: No, I might wish, but only in my. 1102 00:51:13,840 --> 00:51:15,160 Speaker 2: Imagination would you like to go? 1103 00:51:16,760 --> 00:51:19,920 Speaker 22: I would like to go, but I am probably somewhat 1104 00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:21,719 Speaker 22: risk averse in the sense that I would like to 1105 00:51:21,960 --> 00:51:25,400 Speaker 22: have seen many many flights before I would choose to 1106 00:51:25,440 --> 00:51:26,200 Speaker 22: do that myself. 1107 00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:28,719 Speaker 2: Okay. And if you saw in our flights and then 1108 00:51:28,719 --> 00:51:30,520 Speaker 2: you were prepared to go up, how much would you pay? 1109 00:51:32,320 --> 00:51:37,160 Speaker 22: Another interesting question when all of the space tourism companies, 1110 00:51:37,200 --> 00:51:39,640 Speaker 22: and I say, or there's been some that have come 1111 00:51:39,640 --> 00:51:42,640 Speaker 22: and gone, but the two main ones are the Origin 1112 00:51:42,680 --> 00:51:46,839 Speaker 22: and Virginio acting. They were charging initial people who were 1113 00:51:46,880 --> 00:51:49,279 Speaker 22: signing up something in the region of two hundred and 1114 00:51:49,360 --> 00:51:53,960 Speaker 22: fifty thousand US dollars that has I believe gone up, 1115 00:51:54,120 --> 00:51:57,239 Speaker 22: but the intent is that it will ultimately come down 1116 00:51:57,280 --> 00:52:01,400 Speaker 22: as more and more people fly vehicles, become more reliable 1117 00:52:01,400 --> 00:52:02,360 Speaker 22: and learn more of them. 1118 00:52:02,400 --> 00:52:04,560 Speaker 2: Realistically, where does a bottom out at? 1119 00:52:04,560 --> 00:52:04,640 Speaker 6: Like? 1120 00:52:04,680 --> 00:52:07,040 Speaker 2: What are we going to pay when normal punters like 1121 00:52:07,160 --> 00:52:07,680 Speaker 2: us go up? 1122 00:52:09,880 --> 00:52:12,600 Speaker 22: I would venture to say they're hoping to get down 1123 00:52:12,640 --> 00:52:15,320 Speaker 22: to maybe something in the fifty to one hundred thousand 1124 00:52:15,280 --> 00:52:19,600 Speaker 22: dollars range being reasonable. But I guess you could equate 1125 00:52:19,640 --> 00:52:23,319 Speaker 22: it to maybe an expensive cruise equivalent something like that, 1126 00:52:23,440 --> 00:52:25,440 Speaker 22: But I think that's going to be quite a few 1127 00:52:25,480 --> 00:52:25,919 Speaker 22: years away. 1128 00:52:25,960 --> 00:52:28,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, quite an expensive cruise and a very short one. Kirby, 1129 00:52:28,360 --> 00:52:31,280 Speaker 2: thanks very much, appreciate it. KIRBYIK in National Space Society, 1130 00:52:31,320 --> 00:52:34,320 Speaker 2: Australia right now coming up twenty one away from six. 1131 00:52:34,840 --> 00:52:38,200 Speaker 1: The Huddle with New Zealand Southeby's International Realty the ones 1132 00:52:38,239 --> 00:52:41,640 Speaker 1: with worldwide connections that perform not a promise. 1133 00:52:41,600 --> 00:52:43,560 Speaker 2: On the huddle of this this evening.

To me, I find 1144 00:53:10,120 --> 00:53:14,960 Speaker 23: space much more terrifying, terrifying, black cold, whereas under the 1145 00:53:14,960 --> 00:53:16,480 Speaker 23: ocean it's beautiful. 1146 00:53:16,760 --> 00:53:18,759 Speaker 2: I don't reckon.

Yeah yeah, Katie Perry for ten 1153 00:53:34,160 --> 00:53:36,240 Speaker 21: minutes and a little tardis. 1154 00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:38,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, no fun. Okay, Trish. Do you think that this 1155 00:53:38,480 --> 00:53:41,719 Speaker 2: business with Winston Peters versus luckx and is significant or 1156 00:53:41,800 --> 00:53:43,520 Speaker 2: is it, as the Prime Minister says, just a media 1157 00:53:43,520 --> 00:53:43,960 Speaker 2: beat up. 1158 00:53:44,480 --> 00:53:46,800 Speaker 23: I think the Prime Minister is trying to gloss it over. 1159 00:53:48,280 --> 00:53:51,120 Speaker 23: This is my read what National is trying to do. 1160 00:53:51,200 --> 00:53:55,480 Speaker 23: They're trying to balance pissing Trump off, because we know 1161 00:53:55,560 --> 00:53:58,480 Speaker 23: the US is watching everything that everyone does and they're 1162 00:53:58,600 --> 00:54:02,440 Speaker 23: very thin skin, and I'm predict and unpredictable. So so 1163 00:54:02,560 --> 00:54:05,799 Speaker 23: National's balancing that with making the most of what they 1164 00:54:05,880 --> 00:54:10,160 Speaker 23: probably see as their best political opportunity to pull out 1165 00:54:10,160 --> 00:54:13,600 Speaker 23: of what have been pretty bad polls for them, pretty 1166 00:54:13,640 --> 00:54:16,600 Speaker 23: negative poles, and stamp their mark. And someone over the 1167 00:54:16,600 --> 00:54:19,200 Speaker 23: weekend said to me, Oh, you know, do you think 1168 00:54:19,280 --> 00:54:22,240 Speaker 23: Luxon thinks this is sort of his christ Church earthquake moment, 1169 00:54:22,360 --> 00:54:25,560 Speaker 23: This is his moment to really shine. I can't see 1170 00:54:25,560 --> 00:54:29,360 Speaker 23: a reason otherwise. Even even with that, why you wouldn't 1171 00:54:29,400 --> 00:54:31,560 Speaker 23: have told Peters about the speech? I mean, I watched it. 1172 00:54:31,600 --> 00:54:34,880 Speaker 23: I don't think there was any particular magic in it. 1173 00:54:34,920 --> 00:54:38,440 Speaker 23: And you can understand Peter's being grumpy about it and 1174 00:54:38,520 --> 00:54:41,080 Speaker 23: grumpy about these calls going on without Do. 1175 00:54:41,000 --> 00:54:42,760 Speaker 2: You think that Winston's going to steal your thunder? 1176 00:54:43,280 --> 00:54:46,080 Speaker 21: Well, he's been, and he has been moving towards this 1177 00:54:46,200 --> 00:54:50,200 Speaker 21: kind of you know, slightly trumpy populist support for Trump, 1178 00:54:50,280 --> 00:54:52,680 Speaker 21: hasn't he? And I think like everybody's trying to work out, 1179 00:54:52,719 --> 00:54:54,400 Speaker 21: you know, what do you do with a bully like Trump? 1180 00:54:54,600 --> 00:54:57,400 Speaker 21: And you can't ignore them. So there only really two options. 1181 00:54:57,400 --> 00:55:01,520 Speaker 21: You either suck up and kiss ring or you fight back. 1182 00:55:02,040 --> 00:55:04,960 Speaker 2: And I think, can't you say nothing, Josie, because we 1183 00:55:05,239 --> 00:55:07,439 Speaker 2: are the tiniest little country at the bottom of the ocean. 1184 00:55:07,480 --> 00:55:08,680 Speaker 2: You don't have to say anything. You can wait for 1185 00:55:08,719 --> 00:55:09,799 Speaker 2: this whole thing to blow over. 1186 00:55:10,120 --> 00:55:13,400 Speaker 21: Yes, so that's different. You can say nothing and be 1187 00:55:13,480 --> 00:55:15,759 Speaker 21: off the radar. Absolutely, but you still got to do 1188 00:55:15,840 --> 00:55:18,960 Speaker 21: something because this crisis isn't going to fix itself, right, 1189 00:55:19,000 --> 00:55:21,440 Speaker 21: so we have to go. We don't want to, we 1190 00:55:21,440 --> 00:55:24,120 Speaker 21: don't want the bully to notice us, that's true, but 1191 00:55:24,200 --> 00:55:27,320 Speaker 21: that's different to sucking up. Right, So Trudeau tried to 1192 00:55:27,360 --> 00:55:29,920 Speaker 21: sucking up things. Starma tried to sucking up thing and 1193 00:55:29,920 --> 00:55:33,480 Speaker 21: it backfired or didn't help. And I think what Luxan's 1194 00:55:33,480 --> 00:55:35,000 Speaker 21: trying to do, I think is the right thing. Where 1195 00:55:35,040 --> 00:55:38,359 Speaker 21: he's gone right is our what are our opportunities here? 1196 00:55:38,600 --> 00:55:43,680 Speaker 21: CPTPP reach out become a kind of a sensible, rational 1197 00:55:43,840 --> 00:55:48,600 Speaker 21: rule of law trading group that makes sense. You've got 1198 00:55:48,600 --> 00:55:50,560 Speaker 21: to make friends in Southeast Asia, you've got to reach 1199 00:55:50,600 --> 00:55:53,240 Speaker 21: out to Japan, you've got to reach out to Canada. 1200 00:55:53,320 --> 00:55:56,360 Speaker 21: I mean we've done bugger or actually to support Canada 1201 00:55:56,400 --> 00:55:59,480 Speaker 21: who've been threatened with invasion. So we're trying not to 1202 00:55:59,520 --> 00:56:01,720 Speaker 21: be noticed. Yes, that doesn't mean we don't do stuff 1203 00:56:01,719 --> 00:56:03,799 Speaker 21: behind the scenes. I think that's what Lutson's doing. And 1204 00:56:03,880 --> 00:56:06,480 Speaker 21: I think Winston is still in that slightly sucky uppy 1205 00:56:06,800 --> 00:56:09,440 Speaker 21: phase and the sucker Uppers. I watch Game of Thrones, 1206 00:56:09,680 --> 00:56:11,680 Speaker 21: the sucker Uppers don't make it to season. 1207 00:56:11,400 --> 00:56:13,280 Speaker 2: Two, season two, they're dead. 1208 00:56:13,920 --> 00:56:16,560 Speaker 23: Well look at I mean Mark Carney in Canada. He 1209 00:56:16,680 --> 00:56:19,919 Speaker 23: hasn't he done a great job of actually pushing back 1210 00:56:20,000 --> 00:56:22,279 Speaker 23: pretty hard and doing well. 1211 00:56:22,640 --> 00:56:25,000 Speaker 21: He was going to lose, and he's possibly the most 1212 00:56:25,040 --> 00:56:26,120 Speaker 21: boring man I've ever met. 1213 00:56:26,160 --> 00:56:28,400 Speaker 2: And somehow starma. 1214 00:56:28,560 --> 00:56:31,920 Speaker 21: Oh well, Kirs Starmer, Yeah, you kind of if he 1215 00:56:32,000 --> 00:56:35,279 Speaker 21: shouted at a pigeon, the pigeon wouldn't move. He does 1216 00:56:35,360 --> 00:56:38,399 Speaker 21: come across quite wooden. I did kind of guy who said, 1217 00:56:38,440 --> 00:56:40,560 Speaker 21: you know, what would you like? What kind of wood 1218 00:56:40,560 --> 00:56:41,840 Speaker 21: would you like with that casket? 1219 00:56:41,920 --> 00:56:42,120 Speaker 5: Sir? 1220 00:56:42,440 --> 00:56:43,919 Speaker 21: That's kind of what you expect him to say. 1221 00:56:44,040 --> 00:56:47,560 Speaker 23: I did kind of think though. You know, Luxeon's message today, 1222 00:56:47,640 --> 00:56:49,520 Speaker 23: I don't know why. It sort of made me smile, 1223 00:56:49,560 --> 00:56:52,880 Speaker 23: But you know, I'm calling around everyone and I'm saying, hey, guys. 1224 00:56:53,000 --> 00:56:55,280 Speaker 23: You know, I hope you're staying call calm and collected 1225 00:56:55,560 --> 00:56:58,960 Speaker 23: sort of, you know, you can you can just imagine. 1226 00:56:58,760 --> 00:57:01,959 Speaker 2: Could be a momentary. I actually think it could moment. 1227 00:57:02,080 --> 00:57:04,040 Speaker 2: It could also be. But even the politics aside, like 1228 00:57:04,080 --> 00:57:06,080 Speaker 2: see the politics aside, Josie, and just look at the 1229 00:57:06,120 --> 00:57:08,279 Speaker 2: practical stuff that maybe that we may be at very 1230 00:57:08,280 --> 00:57:11,359 Speaker 2: delicate stage of chats. You ever know, with the White House, 1231 00:57:11,360 --> 00:57:13,560 Speaker 2: which Winston's all over and then lux and goes and 1232 00:57:13,600 --> 00:57:15,480 Speaker 2: does this and kind of rains on his parade. Right, 1233 00:57:15,520 --> 00:57:17,919 Speaker 2: there's the practical problems could be real. 1234 00:57:18,120 --> 00:57:21,040 Speaker 21: Yeah, But again I come back to those that have 1235 00:57:21,160 --> 00:57:24,640 Speaker 21: tried the suck up path and it just hasn't worked. 1236 00:57:24,640 --> 00:57:27,280 Speaker 21: So we're not going to get below ten percent. We 1237 00:57:27,360 --> 00:57:29,040 Speaker 21: might get some carve outs, we might not. 1238 00:57:29,160 --> 00:57:29,680 Speaker 2: Who knows. 1239 00:57:30,120 --> 00:57:33,080 Speaker 21: Our biggest bet is to actually make the most of CPTPP, 1240 00:57:33,280 --> 00:57:35,960 Speaker 21: which at a TPP for God's sake, let's just call 1241 00:57:36,000 --> 00:57:40,200 Speaker 21: it TPP. And it is the biggest trade block in 1242 00:57:40,240 --> 00:57:42,200 Speaker 21: the world. It's bigger than our trade with the US. 1243 00:57:42,240 --> 00:57:44,479 Speaker 21: So the potential lies there. We don't want to piss 1244 00:57:44,520 --> 00:57:46,880 Speaker 21: off the US to the extent that we lose everything. 1245 00:57:47,360 --> 00:57:49,280 Speaker 21: But I think what Luxein's doing is right. I think 1246 00:57:49,320 --> 00:57:51,120 Speaker 21: it's it's where the opportunity is. 1247 00:57:51,280 --> 00:57:52,600 Speaker 2: All right, Okay, we'll come back to you guys and 1248 00:57:52,640 --> 00:57:54,120 Speaker 2: just take sixteen away from six. 1249 00:57:56,440 --> 00:57:59,919 Speaker 1: The Huddle with New Zealand Southeby's International Realty A Chief 1250 00:58:00,080 --> 00:58:02,439 Speaker 1: Extraordinary results with unparallel reach. 1251 00:58:02,720 --> 00:58:04,919 Speaker 2: Right, you back with the had altricious and Joseph Ganney, Josie, 1252 00:58:04,920 --> 00:58:06,760 Speaker 2: you didn't watch the pocahon You're going to it's on 1253 00:58:06,800 --> 00:58:08,320 Speaker 2: your watch list?

But I think we have like 1309 01:00:40,240 --> 01:00:43,200 Speaker 21: sixty seven percent of this have a real sense of 1310 01:00:43,240 --> 01:00:47,000 Speaker 21: grievance towards institutions, including the media, right, and that is 1311 01:00:47,720 --> 01:00:51,640 Speaker 21: well above the global average. So we're really passed off, 1312 01:00:51,720 --> 01:00:54,080 Speaker 21: as you said, and I do understand it. I think 1313 01:00:54,160 --> 01:00:56,520 Speaker 21: there's a if you look at all the institutions, there's 1314 01:00:56,560 --> 01:00:59,760 Speaker 21: a feeling that the educated elite, and I'm one of them, 1315 01:01:00,200 --> 01:01:03,080 Speaker 21: have have sort of taken over the institutions, and so 1316 01:01:03,160 --> 01:01:06,720 Speaker 21: the issues that the media focuses on whether it's you know, 1317 01:01:06,760 --> 01:01:10,280 Speaker 21: whether it's gender, whether it's diversity, whether it's school lunches. 1318 01:01:10,320 --> 01:01:13,320 Speaker 21: It's a whole bunch of things that just they focus 1319 01:01:13,360 --> 01:01:15,600 Speaker 21: in on stuff and people go, hold on a minute, 1320 01:01:15,600 --> 01:01:17,520 Speaker 21: that's not the thing that's bothering me right now. 1321 01:01:17,560 --> 01:01:19,080 Speaker 2: But when they focus in on something. I think the 1322 01:01:19,120 --> 01:01:22,040 Speaker 2: Benjamin Doyle story was such an excellent example of why 1323 01:01:22,080 --> 01:01:23,840 Speaker 2: we get so across with the media because there was 1324 01:01:24,400 --> 01:01:27,120 Speaker 2: an accusation of something really weird and gross happening, and 1325 01:01:27,160 --> 01:01:30,240 Speaker 2: then the media just focused on something else, being Winston Peters. 1326 01:01:30,000 --> 01:01:32,240 Speaker 23: A simple way to sum this up, and you get 1327 01:01:32,280 --> 01:01:35,680 Speaker 23: this especially when like I do, you go down and 1328 01:01:35,800 --> 01:01:41,080 Speaker 23: visit the friends infar Noo in Normalville in the King Country. 1329 01:01:41,600 --> 01:01:45,080 Speaker 23: They say the media don't have their finger on the pulse, 1330 01:01:45,400 --> 01:01:48,600 Speaker 23: and that is a great way to sum it all up. 1331 01:01:49,000 --> 01:01:53,240 Speaker 23: It's not reflective of what you know, Middle New Zealand 1332 01:01:53,920 --> 01:01:57,120 Speaker 23: is worried about. They do feel it's gone off in 1333 01:01:57,160 --> 01:02:00,440 Speaker 23: a tangent. And then if you mix the auty in 1334 01:02:00,560 --> 01:02:05,000 Speaker 23: today where with stats that came out last week about 1335 01:02:05,440 --> 01:02:09,520 Speaker 23: left leaning, center leaning right leaning media in New Zealand. 1336 01:02:09,720 --> 01:02:14,240 Speaker 23: Overwhelmingly the stats that came out were from newsrooms that 1337 01:02:14,320 --> 01:02:18,760 Speaker 23: there is a left bias among journalists in newsroom, and 1338 01:02:18,800 --> 01:02:21,200 Speaker 23: again I'm not commenting on whether that's right or wrong, 1339 01:02:21,760 --> 01:02:24,400 Speaker 23: but that's also I think where this finger on the 1340 01:02:24,400 --> 01:02:27,600 Speaker 23: pulse things comes from, because a lot of New Zealanders 1341 01:02:27,600 --> 01:02:30,360 Speaker 23: feel that that is just not representative of where they. 1342 01:02:30,280 --> 01:02:34,040 Speaker 21: Are, a remoteness from places we live, right. Yeah, it 1343 01:02:34,040 --> 01:02:36,960 Speaker 21: feels that the media is just not connected. And it 1344 01:02:37,120 --> 01:02:39,440 Speaker 21: used to be that job in journalism you could do 1345 01:02:39,560 --> 01:02:42,320 Speaker 21: without a degree. I mean, Usked, Mike Costking, you don't 1346 01:02:42,320 --> 01:02:43,720 Speaker 21: have to have a degree, and that used to be 1347 01:02:43,760 --> 01:02:46,840 Speaker 21: really normal that you would have a diversity of life experiences, 1348 01:02:46,920 --> 01:02:49,080 Speaker 21: diversity of incomes and diversity. 1349 01:02:49,280 --> 01:02:54,480 Speaker 2: Now it's all the university educated. Is it okay not 1350 01:02:54,520 --> 01:02:56,080 Speaker 2: to sleep in the same bed as your husband? 1351 01:02:56,680 --> 01:02:59,520 Speaker 23: If I were in your situation right now, I would 1352 01:02:59,520 --> 01:03:02,120 Speaker 23: be down stairs getting as much sleep as I can, 1353 01:03:02,320 --> 01:03:03,480 Speaker 23: just just as you are. 1354 01:03:03,640 --> 01:03:05,080 Speaker 2: How long can I stretch this for? 1355 01:03:05,360 --> 01:03:06,240 Speaker 14: Hey forever? 1356 01:03:06,520 --> 01:03:11,000 Speaker 23: But again this is absolutely different strokes for different folks. 1357 01:03:11,440 --> 01:03:14,400 Speaker 23: I am what sleep is one of my superpowers. I 1358 01:03:14,560 --> 01:03:16,680 Speaker 23: have to have at least eight and a half to 1359 01:03:16,840 --> 01:03:20,960 Speaker 23: nine hours a night. Any form of disturbance is not great. 1360 01:03:21,400 --> 01:03:24,880 Speaker 23: And my biggest problem more is that you know, I 1361 01:03:24,920 --> 01:03:27,080 Speaker 23: do have a very loving husband and a cat, and 1362 01:03:27,120 --> 01:03:30,200 Speaker 23: I wake up sandwich between them in the night, and 1363 01:03:30,400 --> 01:03:33,800 Speaker 23: you know, I'm like Fukushima. The core is just absolutely 1364 01:03:34,160 --> 01:03:36,000 Speaker 23: melting down and I need cooling. 1365 01:03:36,320 --> 01:03:40,160 Speaker 21: Look, people who have full sleep have a higher rated divorce. 1366 01:03:40,240 --> 01:03:42,680 Speaker 21: That's a statistic. Don't ask me to source it, but 1367 01:03:42,800 --> 01:03:46,480 Speaker 21: I read it. And so if you can't get good sleep, 1368 01:03:46,560 --> 01:03:48,160 Speaker 21: you're not going to have a good marriage. It's as 1369 01:03:48,160 --> 01:03:50,800 Speaker 21: simple as that. You're more irritable, you're less empathetic. 1370 01:03:51,680 --> 01:03:53,560 Speaker 2: Enough about my marriage when your husband was on a 1371 01:03:53,560 --> 01:03:55,200 Speaker 2: boat for two months. Absolutely? Yeah. 1372 01:03:55,280 --> 01:03:56,680 Speaker 21: And actually I live in a different half the time. 1373 01:03:56,680 --> 01:03:58,919 Speaker 21: I'm in a different city a little in a different bed. 1374 01:03:59,000 --> 01:04:01,840 Speaker 23: Can I just say I love waking up in the 1375 01:04:01,920 --> 01:04:04,479 Speaker 23: night because I'm also an absolute baby when it comes 1376 01:04:04,480 --> 01:04:06,360 Speaker 23: to the dark. I love waking up in the night 1377 01:04:06,760 --> 01:04:09,200 Speaker 23: and having that lovely, warm person next to me that 1378 01:04:09,240 --> 01:04:09,840 Speaker 23: you can keep it. 1379 01:04:09,840 --> 01:04:11,080 Speaker 21: And be your husband. 1380 01:04:11,560 --> 01:04:14,480 Speaker 23: Oh absolutely, And I don't even need to think about it, 1381 01:04:14,760 --> 01:04:16,760 Speaker 23: and he just sort of knows and cuddles into me, 1382 01:04:16,800 --> 01:04:18,520 Speaker 23: and I find that absolutely delicious. 1383 01:04:18,560 --> 01:04:24,320 Speaker 2: Oh ah, No, which is more selicious, the poking worn 1384 01:04:24,360 --> 01:04:27,880 Speaker 2: documentary or Trish Well.

We love each other, but we're both snoring 1395 01:04:49,960 --> 01:04:52,200 Speaker 2: for our own sanity and sleep. It's just easier here. 1396 01:04:52,240 --> 01:04:56,280 Speaker 2: The separate rooms is wonderful. Visiting is such fun.

Heather. 1399 01:05:02,160 --> 01:05:03,760 Speaker 2: We did the same thing when we added a new 1400 01:05:03,760 --> 01:05:07,520 Speaker 2: puppy to our family. Nothing says city people like separate 1401 01:05:07,520 --> 01:05:10,040 Speaker 2: bedrooms when you get a new puppy. Listen right now, 1402 01:05:10,040 --> 01:05:12,200 Speaker 2: it's four away from six. Very disappointed to read I 1403 01:05:12,240 --> 01:05:13,280 Speaker 2: said I was going to talk to you about this 1404 01:05:13,320 --> 01:05:16,440 Speaker 2: business with the infant formula. Very disappointed to read that 1405 01:05:16,520 --> 01:05:19,600 Speaker 2: we are apparently considering a U turn on those infant 1406 01:05:19,600 --> 01:05:22,040 Speaker 2: formula rules. Now, this is something that happened last year 1407 01:05:22,600 --> 01:05:24,760 Speaker 2: where Australia. We had kind of a combined thing that 1408 01:05:24,800 --> 01:05:26,520 Speaker 2: we do with Australia and we both have the same 1409 01:05:26,560 --> 01:05:30,520 Speaker 2: kind of food regulations they and was heading towards having 1410 01:05:30,560 --> 01:05:32,480 Speaker 2: these new rules for infant formula and at the last 1411 01:05:32,480 --> 01:05:34,320 Speaker 2: minute we pulled out, and it was a good thing 1412 01:05:34,360 --> 01:05:37,600 Speaker 2: we pulled out because all of the rules basically designed 1413 01:05:37,600 --> 01:05:41,000 Speaker 2: for breast is Best, which if you have breastfed, you 1414 01:05:41,120 --> 01:05:43,320 Speaker 2: know is you know, you don't need anybody else telling 1415 01:05:43,400 --> 01:05:45,800 Speaker 2: you what to be doing with your boobs. And sometimes 1416 01:05:45,840 --> 01:05:47,320 Speaker 2: if you just want to put formula on the baby, 1417 01:05:47,360 --> 01:05:50,880 Speaker 2: that's your choice, your baby, your choice. Anyway, it's all 1418 01:05:50,920 --> 01:05:52,800 Speaker 2: designed around breasts Best and all that stuff, and it 1419 01:05:52,840 --> 01:05:54,560 Speaker 2: was going to pull certain formulas off the shlves and 1420 01:05:54,560 --> 01:05:56,880 Speaker 2: it was all just very kind of nanny state and irritating. 1421 01:05:57,160 --> 01:05:58,760 Speaker 2: So we didn't do it, and I was very pleased 1422 01:05:58,760 --> 01:06:01,760 Speaker 2: about that. But now it appears that MPI, according to 1423 01:06:02,200 --> 01:06:04,480 Speaker 2: reporting in the last couple of weeks or thereabouts, is 1424 01:06:04,520 --> 01:06:07,840 Speaker 2: considering doing a little U turn on this.

Of course, all countries now face the 1449 01:07:34,400 --> 01:07:36,920 Speaker 24: same based tariff of ten percent, which is what New 1450 01:07:37,000 --> 01:07:40,440 Speaker 24: Zealand's facing and we're continuing to press the case for 1451 01:07:40,480 --> 01:07:43,400 Speaker 24: our exporters, which is we'd prefer we weren't facing that. 1452 01:07:43,480 --> 01:07:45,680 Speaker 2: So are we asking them to drop the tariff all together. 1453 01:07:46,400 --> 01:07:50,280 Speaker 24: Well, we're pointing out that our tariff regime is very 1454 01:07:50,320 --> 01:07:53,160 Speaker 24: limited towards the US less than two percent, that we 1455 01:07:53,280 --> 01:07:56,520 Speaker 24: have very few non trade barriers, and that as far 1456 01:07:56,560 --> 01:07:58,920 Speaker 24: as possible, we'd like to grow the trade between our 1457 01:07:58,960 --> 01:08:01,400 Speaker 24: two countries, so we'd prefer no tariff. 1458 01:08:01,880 --> 01:08:03,520 Speaker 2: And are we getting any headway with us? 1459 01:08:04,800 --> 01:08:06,880 Speaker 24: Well, I think there's quite a queue of people having 1460 01:08:06,880 --> 01:08:10,720 Speaker 24: a chat, Heather, So we are one of literally dozens 1461 01:08:10,760 --> 01:08:14,160 Speaker 24: of countries around the world are probably pressing a similar case. 1462 01:08:14,960 --> 01:08:16,920 Speaker 24: And I think it's too soon to say where all 1463 01:08:16,920 --> 01:08:19,880 Speaker 24: of this will land, so cool heads need to prevail. 1464 01:08:19,960 --> 01:08:21,559 Speaker 2: Are they actually taking our phone calls? 1465 01:08:23,000 --> 01:08:26,760 Speaker 24: Well, yes they are, because the Prime Minister and the 1466 01:08:26,800 --> 01:08:30,120 Speaker 24: Foreign Minister and other ministers have established relationships with their 1467 01:08:30,120 --> 01:08:33,519 Speaker 24: counterparts around the world and they're speaking with them about 1468 01:08:33,560 --> 01:08:36,599 Speaker 24: how they're saying seeing the tariff regime unfold and what 1469 01:08:36,640 --> 01:08:40,479 Speaker 24: it means. And in the US we have relationships at 1470 01:08:40,479 --> 01:08:43,439 Speaker 24: officials level which continue to function no matter what's happening. 1471 01:08:43,479 --> 01:08:45,800 Speaker 2: So how far up, like, who's the most senior person 1472 01:08:45,840 --> 01:08:48,320 Speaker 2: who's taken a phone call since these tariffs were announced. 1473 01:08:48,920 --> 01:08:51,519 Speaker 24: I couldn't answer that, but I do know that. 1474 01:08:52,760 --> 01:08:55,759 Speaker 2: Just getting the receptionist, are we No. 1475 01:08:55,680 --> 01:08:58,960 Speaker 24: I don't think so. We've got obviously an entire embassy 1476 01:08:59,040 --> 01:09:02,800 Speaker 24: in Washington, senior people who speak to their senior counterparts. 1477 01:09:03,000 --> 01:09:05,120 Speaker 2: Marco Rubio taking a phone call from Winston. 1478 01:09:06,160 --> 01:09:08,240 Speaker 24: I don't think they've had a discussion as yet. 1479 01:09:08,400 --> 01:09:10,280 Speaker 2: So what has Winston told you? Has he told you 1480 01:09:10,320 --> 01:09:11,920 Speaker 2: that he's got anybody seen here on the phone? 1481 01:09:13,680 --> 01:09:17,720 Speaker 24: Winston has told me that he is continuing to engage 1482 01:09:17,800 --> 01:09:20,400 Speaker 24: via our diplomats and that that's the appropriate way to 1483 01:09:20,439 --> 01:09:21,200 Speaker 24: do it right now. 1484 01:09:21,400 --> 01:09:23,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, So it's not sounding all that hopeful on 1485 01:09:23,920 --> 01:09:26,080 Speaker 2: that front. Then do you think, based on the fact 1486 01:09:26,120 --> 01:09:29,280 Speaker 2: that Trump announced these exemptions for smartphones and laptops today, 1487 01:09:29,360 --> 01:09:31,040 Speaker 2: are you taking any heart from that? Does it look 1488 01:09:31,080 --> 01:09:32,080 Speaker 2: to you like he's going to cave? 1489 01:09:33,360 --> 01:09:35,800 Speaker 24: Well, it looks to me that there's quite a lot 1490 01:09:35,880 --> 01:09:39,280 Speaker 24: of water to flow under the bridge yet. And what 1491 01:09:39,360 --> 01:09:42,360 Speaker 24: President Trump has said is that he's only put a 1492 01:09:42,479 --> 01:09:46,680 Speaker 24: ninety day pause on the other higher tariffs, that he 1493 01:09:47,000 --> 01:09:50,639 Speaker 24: is continuing to observe the way that different countries are 1494 01:09:50,680 --> 01:09:53,559 Speaker 24: retaliating with tariffs, and that all of that is being 1495 01:09:53,640 --> 01:09:56,920 Speaker 24: taken into account. So I don't have a crystal ball 1496 01:09:57,080 --> 01:09:59,360 Speaker 24: about where this will all land. I think anyone who 1497 01:09:59,360 --> 01:10:02,160 Speaker 24: claims that I know exactly where it's all landing is 1498 01:10:02,240 --> 01:10:07,760 Speaker 24: probably fibbing, because ultimately the US administration is making decisions 1499 01:10:07,800 --> 01:10:11,200 Speaker 24: in real time, will make decisions that we don't know 1500 01:10:11,320 --> 01:10:12,400 Speaker 24: the results of yet. 1501 01:10:12,600 --> 01:10:15,000 Speaker 2: What is Winston so worried about read what the prime 1502 01:10:15,000 --> 01:10:16,080 Speaker 2: ministers said publicly. 1503 01:10:17,280 --> 01:10:20,320 Speaker 24: Well, I think that they're actually saying very similar things, 1504 01:10:20,479 --> 01:10:25,000 Speaker 24: which is this is a time for pragmatic dialogue between countries. 1505 01:10:25,120 --> 01:10:27,639 Speaker 24: No one benefits when we get into tit for tat 1506 01:10:27,840 --> 01:10:33,200 Speaker 24: retaliation wars. That it's actually hugely beneficial to the world 1507 01:10:33,200 --> 01:10:36,280 Speaker 24: as a whole and to individual countries to have free 1508 01:10:36,320 --> 01:10:37,879 Speaker 24: trade flowing between borders. 1509 01:10:38,080 --> 01:10:40,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, that people should be talking points. But Winston did 1510 01:10:40,880 --> 01:10:42,840 Speaker 2: say that he was hoping that the Prime Minister would 1511 01:10:42,840 --> 01:10:45,120 Speaker 2: take his check his messages and take his phone calls 1512 01:10:45,160 --> 01:10:46,800 Speaker 2: next time before he sees anything. That's a bit of 1513 01:10:46,840 --> 01:10:48,360 Speaker 2: an admonishment. What's he so worried about. 1514 01:10:49,000 --> 01:10:50,960 Speaker 24: Well, I think that he just wants to be talking 1515 01:10:51,000 --> 01:10:53,759 Speaker 24: with the Prime Minister regularly at a time where clearly 1516 01:10:54,280 --> 01:10:56,680 Speaker 24: trade in the world is influx come on and that 1517 01:10:56,720 --> 01:10:57,400 Speaker 24: will be the case. 1518 01:10:57,479 --> 01:10:59,759 Speaker 2: He wouldn't want it. He wouldn't have wanted those messages 1519 01:10:59,800 --> 01:11:01,760 Speaker 2: check unless he had something to say. What is he 1520 01:11:01,840 --> 01:11:04,200 Speaker 2: worried about? I mean, did the problems has say something 1521 01:11:04,240 --> 01:11:05,160 Speaker 2: that has freaked him out? 1522 01:11:06,120 --> 01:11:08,360 Speaker 24: I think you'd have to ask Winston. But what I 1523 01:11:08,400 --> 01:11:10,439 Speaker 24: can tell you is that he and the Prime Minis 1524 01:11:10,520 --> 01:11:13,160 Speaker 24: to have a very strong relationship and they're very aligned 1525 01:11:13,160 --> 01:11:15,840 Speaker 24: in the fact that New Zealand benefits from the free 1526 01:11:15,840 --> 01:11:19,599 Speaker 24: trade settings that we've pursued over multiple governments and that 1527 01:11:19,640 --> 01:11:21,080 Speaker 24: we will continue to pursue. 1528 01:11:21,280 --> 01:11:24,040 Speaker 2: Nikola, why are we really dropping that final test for 1529 01:11:24,080 --> 01:11:25,320 Speaker 2: the full license. 1530 01:11:26,080 --> 01:11:29,519 Speaker 24: Because it just adds cost and pain for people and 1531 01:11:29,560 --> 01:11:32,400 Speaker 24: doesn't make anyone safer. You already have to do a 1532 01:11:32,439 --> 01:11:35,600 Speaker 24: practical test when you sit you're restricted, having to do 1533 01:11:35,680 --> 01:11:39,200 Speaker 24: it again for the final test. Actually, there's pretty good 1534 01:11:39,200 --> 01:11:41,519 Speaker 24: evidence that it stops some people ever getting their full 1535 01:11:41,600 --> 01:11:45,040 Speaker 24: driver's license because they get there restricted, they're free to 1536 01:11:45,040 --> 01:11:46,559 Speaker 24: be on the road and they think are doing the 1537 01:11:46,600 --> 01:11:48,880 Speaker 24: next ones a pain? And actually we want people to 1538 01:11:48,920 --> 01:11:52,519 Speaker 24: have their full driver's license. We want people to not 1539 01:11:52,680 --> 01:11:56,320 Speaker 24: face problems with the police when they're stopped because they 1540 01:11:56,360 --> 01:11:58,160 Speaker 24: don't have the full license. So we want to make 1541 01:11:58,200 --> 01:12:01,240 Speaker 24: that achievable. And the practical test for the restricted ticks 1542 01:12:01,240 --> 01:12:02,280 Speaker 24: the right box, right. 1543 01:12:02,160 --> 01:12:04,439 Speaker 2: So we see it as an obstacle like this is legitimate. 1544 01:12:04,800 --> 01:12:06,840 Speaker 2: You guys see it as legitimately an obstacle to people 1545 01:12:06,880 --> 01:12:08,320 Speaker 2: getting there full and so if you take it away, 1546 01:12:08,360 --> 01:12:10,120 Speaker 2: people will we'll square up with the law. 1547 01:12:10,160 --> 01:12:13,519 Speaker 24: Basically, yeah, they're more likely too, and it just reduces 1548 01:12:13,560 --> 01:12:16,719 Speaker 24: another cost. It's quite stressful sitting that test. It comes 1549 01:12:16,720 --> 01:12:18,360 Speaker 24: with a cost. It's something you have to book in. 1550 01:12:18,760 --> 01:12:21,439 Speaker 24: And if we've already done it at the restricted stage, 1551 01:12:21,479 --> 01:12:24,120 Speaker 24: then why repeat it in general. If we can reduce 1552 01:12:24,160 --> 01:12:26,040 Speaker 24: the cost of living for people, if we can make 1553 01:12:26,120 --> 01:12:27,360 Speaker 24: things easier, we want to. 1554 01:12:28,080 --> 01:12:30,200 Speaker 2: Now, are you guys considering doing a U turn on 1555 01:12:30,240 --> 01:12:31,599 Speaker 2: those infant formula rules? 1556 01:12:32,600 --> 01:12:36,480 Speaker 24: Well no, so just to remind you of the situation, Essentially, 1557 01:12:37,160 --> 01:12:41,120 Speaker 24: the New Zealand Australia Standard on labeling provisions would have 1558 01:12:41,240 --> 01:12:44,559 Speaker 24: restricted how some of our infant formula companies were able 1559 01:12:44,600 --> 01:12:48,160 Speaker 24: to market their products. Since then, we said, well, if 1560 01:12:48,160 --> 01:12:51,080 Speaker 24: we can't work this through, we'll withdraw. I understand that 1561 01:12:51,120 --> 01:12:54,599 Speaker 24: there have now been discussions about how we could align 1562 01:12:54,640 --> 01:12:57,160 Speaker 24: our interests. We want to stay in the joint food 1563 01:12:57,200 --> 01:13:00,840 Speaker 24: system with Australia that has very good benefits. So this 1564 01:13:01,000 --> 01:13:04,599 Speaker 24: is just a small issue relating to labeling. So if 1565 01:13:04,640 --> 01:13:06,880 Speaker 24: that can be resolved and then we can stay in 1566 01:13:06,920 --> 01:13:08,840 Speaker 24: the New Zealand Standard, that's what we want to do. 1567 01:13:08,880 --> 01:13:12,320 Speaker 24: And I understand that the Minister has been advancing discussions 1568 01:13:12,360 --> 01:13:15,360 Speaker 24: on that basis. He hasn't brought recommendations to Cabinet yet, 1569 01:13:15,360 --> 01:13:17,000 Speaker 24: so I wouldn't want to get ahead of him. But 1570 01:13:17,040 --> 01:13:19,160 Speaker 24: if we can resolve the labeling issue and stay in 1571 01:13:19,200 --> 01:13:20,679 Speaker 24: the standard, that's ideal. 1572 01:13:20,760 --> 01:13:22,880 Speaker 2: So are we asking them Okay, we sign up to 1573 01:13:22,880 --> 01:13:25,280 Speaker 2: the standard, but they have to change the labeling rules 1574 01:13:25,320 --> 01:13:27,320 Speaker 2: to suit us. Is that essentially what we're wanting to. 1575 01:13:27,479 --> 01:13:30,040 Speaker 24: Well, it may yeah, it may be that we stay 1576 01:13:30,080 --> 01:13:33,000 Speaker 24: in the standard, but then we allow for some slightly 1577 01:13:33,040 --> 01:13:35,960 Speaker 24: different labeling for some of our products without having any 1578 01:13:36,000 --> 01:13:37,240 Speaker 24: food safety issues. 1579 01:13:36,960 --> 01:13:39,719 Speaker 2: And we don't start pulling infant formula special infant formula 1580 01:13:39,800 --> 01:13:41,519 Speaker 2: off shelves and giving it to pharmacies to sell and 1581 01:13:41,520 --> 01:13:42,479 Speaker 2: all that kind of nonsense. 1582 01:13:42,800 --> 01:13:45,920 Speaker 24: Well, what we want to avoid is anything that restricts 1583 01:13:45,920 --> 01:13:49,960 Speaker 24: the ability of our food and infant formula providers to 1584 01:13:49,960 --> 01:13:52,360 Speaker 24: be able to market their products effectively. So that's those 1585 01:13:52,400 --> 01:13:54,880 Speaker 24: are the issues that we've been working through, NICLA. 1586 01:13:54,960 --> 01:13:57,519 Speaker 2: Do you think that these rules about requiring the public 1587 01:13:57,560 --> 01:13:59,920 Speaker 2: servants to use will are really a good idea? 1588 01:14:00,680 --> 01:14:03,920 Speaker 24: Yes, I do, because wool is a great product. It's 1589 01:14:03,960 --> 01:14:09,559 Speaker 24: been underrated, undervalued, has lots of uses. And by saying 1590 01:14:09,600 --> 01:14:12,599 Speaker 24: to the public agencies, hey, look, consider WILL when you're 1591 01:14:12,640 --> 01:14:16,720 Speaker 24: doing your procurement. It has really good sustainability benefits. It's 1592 01:14:16,760 --> 01:14:19,559 Speaker 24: actually much better value for money than many of you think, 1593 01:14:19,960 --> 01:14:22,400 Speaker 24: and it has good whole of life costs. By giving 1594 01:14:22,600 --> 01:14:26,400 Speaker 24: agencies that nudge, we're pretty sure some very good bids 1595 01:14:26,439 --> 01:14:29,439 Speaker 24: will come forward for woolen products and buildings that will 1596 01:14:29,479 --> 01:14:33,040 Speaker 24: stack up on their own merits. So that creates value 1597 01:14:33,040 --> 01:14:35,600 Speaker 24: for the New Zealand economy as a whole, and it 1598 01:14:35,640 --> 01:14:37,640 Speaker 24: creates great products and governments. 1599 01:14:37,960 --> 01:14:39,840 Speaker 2: It's not going to it's going to work out at 1600 01:14:39,880 --> 01:14:41,559 Speaker 2: the same price as a synthetic carpet. 1601 01:14:42,880 --> 01:14:46,080 Speaker 24: Well, you have to take into account a number of factors. 1602 01:14:46,240 --> 01:14:48,839 Speaker 24: Whole of life cost, you have to take into account, 1603 01:14:49,160 --> 01:14:52,120 Speaker 24: the sustainability, you have to take into account, the health 1604 01:14:52,160 --> 01:14:56,080 Speaker 24: outcomes and we're asking our government agencies when they're doing 1605 01:14:56,120 --> 01:14:59,080 Speaker 24: procurement not just to write off Will right from the start, 1606 01:14:59,160 --> 01:15:02,439 Speaker 24: but to consider all of those factors when they're putting 1607 01:15:02,439 --> 01:15:04,120 Speaker 24: together their procurement. 1608 01:15:04,200 --> 01:15:06,680 Speaker 2: But isn't it I mean, it feels like the kind 1609 01:15:06,720 --> 01:15:09,000 Speaker 2: of dumb rules that Muldoon would have issued in order 1610 01:15:09,040 --> 01:15:10,560 Speaker 2: to prop up in an industry. 1611 01:15:11,600 --> 01:15:14,320 Speaker 24: Well, no, because Will is a great product and it's 1612 01:15:14,320 --> 01:15:16,040 Speaker 24: come a long way. It can now be used not 1613 01:15:16,120 --> 01:15:19,560 Speaker 24: just for carpet but for insulation for acoustic panels. But 1614 01:15:19,600 --> 01:15:23,800 Speaker 24: it's story well not always, not when you take into 1615 01:15:23,840 --> 01:15:26,240 Speaker 24: account the value that you're creating. And this is a 1616 01:15:26,280 --> 01:15:29,879 Speaker 24: principle that I want in our procurement rules more generally, 1617 01:15:30,040 --> 01:15:33,200 Speaker 24: which is we shouldn't just be saying that one's twenty 1618 01:15:33,240 --> 01:15:35,920 Speaker 24: cents more expensive per meter than that one. We should 1619 01:15:35,920 --> 01:15:38,600 Speaker 24: be saying, what's the value we get as a country 1620 01:15:38,640 --> 01:15:42,160 Speaker 24: from spending millions of dollars on this contract? And the 1621 01:15:42,200 --> 01:15:46,439 Speaker 24: truth is when it's creating a industry, when it's supporting 1622 01:15:46,439 --> 01:15:49,479 Speaker 24: an industry on the margin, that can create greater value 1623 01:15:49,520 --> 01:15:51,799 Speaker 24: for New Zealand of course we should take that into account. 1624 01:15:51,960 --> 01:15:57,040 Speaker 2: Did you buy Winston a present? Yes? What did you 1625 01:15:57,080 --> 01:15:58,160 Speaker 2: buy him? 1626 01:15:58,920 --> 01:16:02,599 Speaker 24: Well, I respect that he's a private person and so 1627 01:16:02,720 --> 01:16:04,640 Speaker 24: the gift that I've bought him, I will leave it 1628 01:16:04,640 --> 01:16:06,600 Speaker 24: to him. Was it a whiskey he would wish to 1629 01:16:06,640 --> 01:16:09,200 Speaker 24: reveal it It was not. I was a little more 1630 01:16:09,200 --> 01:16:14,559 Speaker 24: creative than that. Links I paid tribute to his love 1631 01:16:14,640 --> 01:16:17,200 Speaker 24: of rail and a form which I will lead him 1632 01:16:17,240 --> 01:16:18,479 Speaker 24: to discuss should he wish to. 1633 01:16:18,680 --> 01:16:21,200 Speaker 2: Okay, but you just okay, So it's got it's rail related. 1634 01:16:21,320 --> 01:16:24,040 Speaker 2: Just a final question, was it a toy set or 1635 01:16:24,200 --> 01:16:26,000 Speaker 2: was it a ticket on it? 1636 01:16:26,000 --> 01:16:31,200 Speaker 24: It was neither of those things, fairies. No, well those 1637 01:16:31,240 --> 01:16:32,880 Speaker 24: were not. Those were not a gift because of course 1638 01:16:32,920 --> 01:16:35,320 Speaker 24: they're funded by the New Zealand Text Path. So not 1639 01:16:35,360 --> 01:16:36,240 Speaker 24: on my gift to give. 1640 01:16:36,520 --> 01:16:38,160 Speaker 2: Nicola, thank you very much for your time, lovely to 1641 01:16:38,200 --> 01:16:41,240 Speaker 2: chat you. That's Nicola Willis, the Finance Minister a trains. 1642 01:16:41,520 --> 01:16:43,559 Speaker 2: I would have gone straight for a single Moult would 1643 01:16:43,640 --> 01:16:45,200 Speaker 2: new It's just the simplest thing and you know bring 1644 01:16:45,320 --> 01:16:47,960 Speaker 2: him a lot of joy. But you also know gone 1645 01:16:48,000 --> 01:16:49,919 Speaker 2: in one night seventeen past six. 1646 01:16:50,640 --> 01:16:54,080 Speaker 1: It's the Heather Duplessy Allen Drive Full Show podcast on 1647 01:16:54,320 --> 01:16:56,799 Speaker 1: my Heart Radio powered by newstalg Zebbi. 1648 01:16:57,760 --> 01:16:59,880 Speaker 2: Heather, you need to change your attitude about will Heather, 1649 01:17:00,000 --> 01:17:01,400 Speaker 2: would you like to wrap your baby and you're not 1650 01:17:01,479 --> 01:17:04,600 Speaker 2: in nylon or in wool, Peter, Look, of course I 1651 01:17:04,680 --> 01:17:07,000 Speaker 2: want to wrap the baby in wool rather than nylon. 1652 01:17:07,040 --> 01:17:08,920 Speaker 2: But the thing is it's my choice, right So if 1653 01:17:08,960 --> 01:17:10,760 Speaker 2: I want to wrap the baby and nylon, I can 1654 01:17:10,800 --> 01:17:13,240 Speaker 2: wrap the baby baby and nylon. And that's ultimately what 1655 01:17:13,320 --> 01:17:14,640 Speaker 2: it comes down to is you should be able to 1656 01:17:14,760 --> 01:17:17,120 Speaker 2: choose whether you use wool carpet or whether you use 1657 01:17:17,120 --> 01:17:20,080 Speaker 2: synthetic carpet. That's the important thing, is the choice. Otherwise 1658 01:17:20,080 --> 01:17:21,639 Speaker 2: we're back to some sort of weird, kind of old 1659 01:17:21,680 --> 01:17:23,800 Speaker 2: doom way of running the place. Having said that, though, 1660 01:17:24,720 --> 01:17:26,519 Speaker 2: if you can do the wall, you probably want to 1661 01:17:26,560 --> 01:17:29,000 Speaker 2: do the wall, because, as somebody's pointed out, petroleum based 1662 01:17:29,000 --> 01:17:31,240 Speaker 2: carpets give you about three minutes to vacate your house 1663 01:17:31,280 --> 01:17:33,000 Speaker 2: in the event of fire. Do you want a bit 1664 01:17:33,040 --> 01:17:34,920 Speaker 2: longer to save yourself and your children? Probably want to 1665 01:17:34,960 --> 01:17:37,360 Speaker 2: lay the carpet down that's wool, wouldn't you. Twenty past 1666 01:17:37,400 --> 01:17:39,719 Speaker 2: six time for a look at the Markets've got Shane 1667 01:17:39,760 --> 01:17:43,240 Speaker 2: solely from Harbor Asset Management. We've been our Shane gooda. 1668 01:17:43,960 --> 01:17:45,640 Speaker 2: How are you and very well? Thank you? Now, what 1669 01:17:45,760 --> 01:17:48,040 Speaker 2: did you make this? O mate, thank you, it's good 1670 01:17:48,080 --> 01:17:49,519 Speaker 2: to talk to you too. What did you make of 1671 01:17:49,560 --> 01:17:51,680 Speaker 2: this exemption for the smartphones and the computers and the 1672 01:17:51,720 --> 01:17:54,000 Speaker 2: electronics and stuff from Trump? Is this a good news sign? 1673 01:17:54,840 --> 01:17:57,240 Speaker 27: Yeah, it is, but you know, you've got to step back. 1674 01:17:57,280 --> 01:18:00,360 Speaker 27: We've had a policy induce skier to grow, so anything 1675 01:18:00,400 --> 01:18:02,639 Speaker 27: that with Jesus policy rest that's helpful. So this ninety 1676 01:18:02,720 --> 01:18:04,880 Speaker 27: day reprieve, and we're going to be careful about this. 1677 01:18:05,000 --> 01:18:08,479 Speaker 27: It is a reprieve to tech tariffs is helpful, go back. 1678 01:18:09,000 --> 01:18:11,439 Speaker 27: We are a little bit worried as a capital market. 1679 01:18:11,520 --> 01:18:12,519 Speaker 27: This is a bit of a go and o go 1680 01:18:12,720 --> 01:18:13,360 Speaker 27: situation that. 1681 01:18:14,040 --> 01:18:14,960 Speaker 5: Pushed out tariffs. 1682 01:18:15,160 --> 01:18:17,400 Speaker 27: But the administration saying, hey, look we're going to launch 1683 01:18:17,479 --> 01:18:22,519 Speaker 27: some new investigations into semiconductor chips and that may actually 1684 01:18:22,560 --> 01:18:23,920 Speaker 27: capture a bunch of tech applications. 1685 01:18:23,960 --> 01:18:26,800 Speaker 5: So it's helpful. It's in the right direction. But we've 1686 01:18:26,840 --> 01:18:28,320 Speaker 5: got to heck up and we are. 1687 01:18:28,560 --> 01:18:31,720 Speaker 27: Perhaps past peak tariff noise, but there's a lot of 1688 01:18:31,840 --> 01:18:33,960 Speaker 27: uncertained to heather and that's going to continue to keep 1689 01:18:34,920 --> 01:18:37,040 Speaker 27: pressure on consumers and businesses and markets. 1690 01:18:37,240 --> 01:18:39,240 Speaker 2: Now I see the Fed is saying it's willing to 1691 01:18:39,240 --> 01:18:41,160 Speaker 2: get involved. What exactly does that mean? 1692 01:18:41,960 --> 01:18:42,960 Speaker 5: Yes, a season Colin. 1693 01:18:43,040 --> 01:18:44,600 Speaker 27: She's the head of a Boston see and she's a 1694 01:18:44,640 --> 01:18:47,880 Speaker 27: member of the FED Open Market Committee. She told the 1695 01:18:48,040 --> 01:18:50,880 Speaker 27: Financial Times that the US Central Bank, the FED, is 1696 01:18:51,560 --> 01:18:55,400 Speaker 27: absolutely preared to step in and stabilize financial markets of 1697 01:18:55,479 --> 01:18:58,800 Speaker 27: conditions become this order. And so what we saw last 1698 01:18:58,840 --> 01:19:02,599 Speaker 27: week was some disruptions the government bond yields, government bond markets, 1699 01:19:02,600 --> 01:19:04,679 Speaker 27: and that's what you're talking about, disruption. What she's saying 1700 01:19:04,760 --> 01:19:07,880 Speaker 27: is we think markets are still functioning well, we're not 1701 01:19:07,920 --> 01:19:10,559 Speaker 27: seeing liquidity issues, but we're ready to step in. It's 1702 01:19:10,680 --> 01:19:14,280 Speaker 27: really important. It's important to give people confidence that US 1703 01:19:14,360 --> 01:19:17,519 Speaker 27: government bonds they are a safe asset and by definition, 1704 01:19:17,960 --> 01:19:20,519 Speaker 27: other government bonds, including our own, are safe. 1705 01:19:21,200 --> 01:19:24,920 Speaker 2: And so what's been the reaction locally to both the tariffs, 1706 01:19:24,960 --> 01:19:27,240 Speaker 2: the tech tariffs and the and the FED comments. 1707 01:19:27,640 --> 01:19:30,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, Look the bond yields, and they are important. They're 1708 01:19:30,439 --> 01:19:30,960 Speaker 5: pretty flat. 1709 01:19:31,000 --> 01:19:33,320 Speaker 27: The tenure government bond youars flat at four point seventy five. 1710 01:19:33,640 --> 01:19:35,679 Speaker 27: They're quite a long way up from where they started 1711 01:19:35,720 --> 01:19:38,240 Speaker 27: the year, but they've stopped going up. That's important. The 1712 01:19:38,280 --> 01:19:40,479 Speaker 27: New Zealand dollar back to just turn of fifty nine 1713 01:19:40,560 --> 01:19:43,439 Speaker 27: cents fifty eight sixty against the US dollar. 1714 01:19:43,920 --> 01:19:45,439 Speaker 5: That's about US dollar weakness. 1715 01:19:45,520 --> 01:19:47,679 Speaker 27: So one of the things we've seen through this last 1716 01:19:47,720 --> 01:19:50,600 Speaker 27: few weeks is the US dollar has been falling and 1717 01:19:50,800 --> 01:19:53,599 Speaker 27: the New Zealand shear market was about point seventy percent, 1718 01:19:54,200 --> 01:19:56,680 Speaker 27: so less than one percent more than half led by 1719 01:19:56,760 --> 01:19:59,679 Speaker 27: defensive growth companies like infratill them already and phishent Parkway 1720 01:19:59,680 --> 01:20:00,519 Speaker 27: out here near Boss. 1721 01:20:00,640 --> 01:20:03,679 Speaker 5: So yeah, not a bad day, but not super exciting. 1722 01:20:03,720 --> 01:20:06,160 Speaker 2: Okay, what's coming up this week that the investors should 1723 01:20:06,200 --> 01:20:06,760 Speaker 2: keep an eye out for. 1724 01:20:07,320 --> 01:20:10,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, busy week. Thanks said that. The probably q and 1725 01:20:10,439 --> 01:20:11,240 Speaker 5: locally is on Thursday. 1726 01:20:11,280 --> 01:20:13,800 Speaker 27: We've got this New Zealand consumer price inflation from March 1727 01:20:13,880 --> 01:20:16,800 Speaker 27: the March quarter. I should give the Reserve Bank in 1728 01:20:16,800 --> 01:20:20,120 Speaker 27: New Zealand a green light to keep cutting official rates. 1729 01:20:20,439 --> 01:20:24,160 Speaker 27: We're seeing certainly businesses and surveys saying, hey, look the 1730 01:20:24,360 --> 01:20:26,840 Speaker 27: inflation conditions of form, so that should give us a 1731 01:20:26,880 --> 01:20:29,519 Speaker 27: green light for more cuts thusday night. We've also got 1732 01:20:29,640 --> 01:20:31,920 Speaker 27: mister Powell, who's the cheer of the US federal is 1733 01:20:31,920 --> 01:20:34,000 Speaker 27: there talking about economic outlook. He's probably going to be 1734 01:20:34,000 --> 01:20:36,599 Speaker 27: a little bit weary. We've also got the European Central 1735 01:20:36,640 --> 01:20:39,519 Speaker 27: Bank potentially cutting interest rates. And then later in the 1736 01:20:39,560 --> 01:20:43,160 Speaker 27: week we've got a large number of US companies delivering 1737 01:20:43,200 --> 01:20:46,080 Speaker 27: profit results and then it'll give the real tone for 1738 01:20:47,520 --> 01:20:49,479 Speaker 27: where we should expect the markets to go on. Of course, 1739 01:20:50,040 --> 01:20:53,280 Speaker 27: we're closed for Easter Friday, so simply to be a 1740 01:20:53,320 --> 01:20:56,200 Speaker 27: little of focus on Easter eggs on over the weekend. 1741 01:20:57,160 --> 01:20:59,320 Speaker 2: Shane, thanks very much, looking forward to sewing you next week. 1742 01:20:59,320 --> 01:21:02,320 Speaker 2: Is Shane solely how management hither. It's right that it's 1743 01:21:02,320 --> 01:21:05,040 Speaker 2: all about choices to read the carpets, to use or 1744 01:21:05,080 --> 01:21:07,000 Speaker 2: not to use the wall, but up until recently public 1745 01:21:07,080 --> 01:21:08,880 Speaker 2: servants haven't actually had the choice to use and I've 1746 01:21:09,240 --> 01:21:12,040 Speaker 2: I've had to take the option of not using the wall. 1747 01:21:12,120 --> 01:21:13,840 Speaker 2: And now the floodgates are open, they will choose what 1748 01:21:13,840 --> 01:21:15,960 Speaker 2: they will choose. To fairpoint twenty four past six. 1749 01:21:16,080 --> 01:21:19,360 Speaker 1: Approaching the numbers and getting the results, it's heather to 1750 01:21:19,520 --> 01:21:24,240 Speaker 1: the clan with the business hour and mass insurance and investments, 1751 01:21:24,600 --> 01:21:27,240 Speaker 1: grow your wealth, protect your future usetogs. 1752 01:21:27,280 --> 01:21:29,880 Speaker 2: That'd be a bit of a mixed bag on the 1753 01:21:29,920 --> 01:21:32,599 Speaker 2: old business sales at the moment sounds like the heaps 1754 01:21:32,640 --> 01:21:34,320 Speaker 2: of heaps of interest. So if you've got a business 1755 01:21:34,360 --> 01:21:36,120 Speaker 2: to sell. There's a lot of interest in buying it. 1756 01:21:36,200 --> 01:21:38,320 Speaker 2: But the problem is, by the sounds of things, prices 1757 01:21:38,320 --> 01:21:39,920 Speaker 2: a dropping, so you want to get selling pretty quickly. 1758 01:21:39,920 --> 01:21:41,800 Speaker 2: So we're going to talk about that in about ten 1759 01:21:41,880 --> 01:21:45,040 Speaker 2: minutes time. It's twenty seven past six. Argentina. Now, I 1760 01:21:45,360 --> 01:21:47,639 Speaker 2: am fascinated by the story of Argentina at the moment. 1761 01:21:47,680 --> 01:21:49,920 Speaker 2: There's been some big news out of Argentina just in 1762 01:21:49,960 --> 01:21:55,000 Speaker 2: the last few days. Fascinated because the IMF has just 1763 01:21:55,080 --> 01:21:57,360 Speaker 2: given Argentina a huge loan of about I think it's 1764 01:21:57,360 --> 01:21:59,720 Speaker 2: about fourteen billion US dollars and it sounds like bits 1765 01:21:59,760 --> 01:22:02,360 Speaker 2: and bob, maybe like another six billion from others and 1766 01:22:02,439 --> 01:22:04,160 Speaker 2: so on, but it it adds up to a total 1767 01:22:04,160 --> 01:22:06,479 Speaker 2: package of twenty billion. But what this is is a 1768 01:22:06,520 --> 01:22:09,920 Speaker 2: real vote of confidence in what the President of Argentina 1769 01:22:10,080 --> 01:22:12,720 Speaker 2: is doing and if he gets this right, what he's 1770 01:22:12,760 --> 01:22:15,519 Speaker 2: doing at the moment, it's a blueprint for basically going 1771 01:22:15,680 --> 01:22:18,240 Speaker 2: fast and hard if you want to turn an economy around, 1772 01:22:18,640 --> 01:22:20,320 Speaker 2: as opposed to what our government is doing, which is 1773 01:22:20,360 --> 01:22:22,000 Speaker 2: sort of a bit of tinkering and sort of go yeah, 1774 01:22:22,000 --> 01:22:24,160 Speaker 2: it's not that bad, it's not that great, but it's 1775 01:22:24,200 --> 01:22:25,320 Speaker 2: going to do a little bit here and a little 1776 01:22:25,320 --> 01:22:27,799 Speaker 2: bit and it's a fire. Maybe like a few public servants, 1777 01:22:27,840 --> 01:22:30,360 Speaker 2: but not too many. Over in Argentina, as you well know, 1778 01:22:30,439 --> 01:22:35,759 Speaker 2: they've had huge inflation, a devaluing currency, massive fiscal deficits. 1779 01:22:35,800 --> 01:22:39,080 Speaker 2: It's just been a disaster. So Zaviamila has just gone 1780 01:22:39,120 --> 01:22:41,720 Speaker 2: through and fired tens of thousands of public servants, has 1781 01:22:41,720 --> 01:22:44,880 Speaker 2: done all this stuff and at the moment it's working. 1782 01:22:45,680 --> 01:22:48,240 Speaker 2: And because of this IMF floan, he's going to now 1783 01:22:48,320 --> 01:22:51,200 Speaker 2: lift the strict capital and currency controls which they've been 1784 01:22:51,320 --> 01:22:53,639 Speaker 2: keeping in place in order to stop capital fleeing the country. 1785 01:22:53,680 --> 01:22:56,519 Speaker 2: So keep an eye on that because it looks very 1786 01:22:56,640 --> 01:22:59,880 Speaker 2: much like a good news story for Argentina. And he's 1787 01:23:00,000 --> 01:23:01,400 Speaker 2: been in charge as long as the nats have been 1788 01:23:01,439 --> 01:23:04,040 Speaker 2: in charged here, so we'll see which one who gets 1789 01:23:04,080 --> 01:23:06,320 Speaker 2: there first. The guy who's doing it big and bold 1790 01:23:06,360 --> 01:23:08,520 Speaker 2: are the ones who are tinkering headlines. 1791 01:23:08,080 --> 01:23:16,960 Speaker 1: Next, whether it's macro micro or just playing economics. It's 1792 01:23:17,080 --> 01:23:20,200 Speaker 1: all on the Business Hour with Anther Duplessy, Allen and 1793 01:23:20,560 --> 01:23:24,639 Speaker 1: Maya's Insurance and investments, Grow your wealth, protect your future. 1794 01:23:24,880 --> 01:23:25,680 Speaker 5: These talks at me. 1795 01:23:31,040 --> 01:23:31,400 Speaker 18: Thank you. 1796 01:23:31,960 --> 01:23:33,560 Speaker 2: Gavin Gray out of the UK is going to be 1797 01:23:33,600 --> 01:23:35,439 Speaker 2: with us very shortly. In the next ten minutes, took 1798 01:23:35,520 --> 01:23:37,280 Speaker 2: us through what is going on with these efforts to 1799 01:23:37,840 --> 01:23:41,280 Speaker 2: keep the British steel industry going. Winston Peters has just 1800 01:23:41,360 --> 01:23:43,120 Speaker 2: given a press conference. He's in a YI at the 1801 01:23:43,120 --> 01:23:45,160 Speaker 2: Moment's just given a press conference where he's been asked 1802 01:23:45,200 --> 01:23:48,200 Speaker 2: about this business about telling the Prime Minister off in public, 1803 01:23:48,280 --> 01:23:50,320 Speaker 2: and he has just shut it down very quickly. 1804 01:23:50,800 --> 01:23:53,880 Speaker 25: A question from the press gallery entrede war talk. The 1805 01:23:53,960 --> 01:23:56,760 Speaker 25: Prime Minister has called your comments. I'm writing about him 1806 01:23:57,439 --> 01:24:00,080 Speaker 25: calling you first before going and having me to to 1807 01:24:00,320 --> 01:24:01,759 Speaker 25: build leaders and you'll. 1808 01:24:01,560 --> 01:24:03,800 Speaker 19: Speaking the first guttery back home. And I'm in Hawaii 1809 01:24:03,880 --> 01:24:06,280 Speaker 19: now dealing with our old story. If and when I 1810 01:24:06,360 --> 01:24:08,280 Speaker 19: get back home, I'll deal with their domest gessues. 1811 01:24:08,920 --> 01:24:11,920 Speaker 2: Interesting from him because wasn't he offshore in Samoa and 1812 01:24:12,000 --> 01:24:13,680 Speaker 2: Tongue of various other parts of the Pacific where he 1813 01:24:13,800 --> 01:24:15,439 Speaker 2: was making all these comments that kicked us off in 1814 01:24:15,479 --> 01:24:17,240 Speaker 2: the first place. But now that he's offshore in Hawaii, 1815 01:24:17,840 --> 01:24:19,759 Speaker 2: apparently we don't want to be dealing with it anymore. 1816 01:24:19,800 --> 01:24:23,360 Speaker 2: Twenty three away from seven Heather do for see. Apparently 1817 01:24:23,400 --> 01:24:26,000 Speaker 2: demand is outstripping supply when it comes to the sale 1818 01:24:26,000 --> 01:24:28,639 Speaker 2: of small businesses, there is a wrinkle though, for anyone's 1819 01:24:28,680 --> 01:24:31,400 Speaker 2: selling prices are going down. This is from data released 1820 01:24:31,400 --> 01:24:34,680 Speaker 2: by ABC Business Sales and the managing director, Chris Smaller's. 1821 01:24:34,360 --> 01:24:37,000 Speaker 26: With us at Chris, Hey here, welcome back. How are 1822 01:24:37,000 --> 01:24:37,280 Speaker 26: you doing? 1823 01:24:37,360 --> 01:24:37,479 Speaker 9: Oh? 1824 01:24:37,600 --> 01:24:37,880 Speaker 24: Thank you. 1825 01:24:38,000 --> 01:24:40,360 Speaker 2: I'm very happy to be back. Although I'm going to 1826 01:24:40,400 --> 01:24:42,200 Speaker 2: be honest with you, while the bosses are not listenings, 1827 01:24:42,240 --> 01:24:44,160 Speaker 2: I'm assuming they're not listening for it this very minute. 1828 01:24:44,680 --> 01:24:46,920 Speaker 2: Doing it one day is something doing it every single 1829 01:24:47,000 --> 01:24:48,680 Speaker 2: day from here on and is kind of confronting. Do 1830 01:24:48,720 --> 01:24:49,200 Speaker 2: you know what I mean? 1831 01:24:50,040 --> 01:24:51,960 Speaker 5: I'm sure you'd be Okay, I think so too. 1832 01:24:52,000 --> 01:24:54,800 Speaker 2: I've done it before. Okay, now, Chris, why have we 1833 01:24:54,880 --> 01:24:55,920 Speaker 2: got the spike in demand? 1834 01:24:57,360 --> 01:25:00,559 Speaker 26: Look, there's a couple of buying groups that to the four. 1835 01:25:00,920 --> 01:25:04,240 Speaker 26: You know, we've had over twenty five thousand confidentiality agreement 1836 01:25:04,320 --> 01:25:07,400 Speaker 26: signed this financial year versus nineteen thousand the year before, 1837 01:25:07,800 --> 01:25:09,720 Speaker 26: and we've really seen a lot of There's still a 1838 01:25:09,760 --> 01:25:12,920 Speaker 26: lot of new migrants coming in from countries such as India, 1839 01:25:13,040 --> 01:25:15,479 Speaker 26: China and the Philippines, and they're more inclined to want 1840 01:25:15,520 --> 01:25:18,240 Speaker 26: to purchase a small business than actually work for a 1841 01:25:18,280 --> 01:25:21,599 Speaker 26: big corporate We've also still got a pretty steady flow 1842 01:25:21,640 --> 01:25:24,120 Speaker 26: of people being made redundant out of the big corporates 1843 01:25:24,360 --> 01:25:27,080 Speaker 26: who then have to look to replicate their income. And 1844 01:25:27,120 --> 01:25:29,400 Speaker 26: they're probably really the two key groups that have sort 1845 01:25:29,439 --> 01:25:32,360 Speaker 26: of jumped on this sort of business ownership to look 1846 01:25:32,439 --> 01:25:34,280 Speaker 26: to find some income. 1847 01:25:34,680 --> 01:25:36,360 Speaker 2: And why the price is coming down. Is this a 1848 01:25:36,439 --> 01:25:38,920 Speaker 2: case of prices actually falling or is it simply that 1849 01:25:39,000 --> 01:25:41,040 Speaker 2: the average is being skewed by lower prices. 1850 01:25:41,720 --> 01:25:46,040 Speaker 26: Yeah, it's definitely the latter there, Heather. Again, when you 1851 01:25:46,080 --> 01:25:49,000 Speaker 26: think about those Asian immigrants of countries and they're generally 1852 01:25:49,120 --> 01:25:51,519 Speaker 26: their budgets below five hundred thousand dollars, so we've had 1853 01:25:51,920 --> 01:25:55,840 Speaker 26: a raal uptick and really quite small businesses being sold 1854 01:25:55,880 --> 01:25:59,320 Speaker 26: for two three, four hundred thousand dollars in really high volumes, 1855 01:25:59,360 --> 01:25:59,960 Speaker 26: and that's skewed. 1856 01:26:00,439 --> 01:26:01,360 Speaker 5: It skewed the average. 1857 01:26:01,360 --> 01:26:04,599 Speaker 26: Another meaningful statistic we used to measure, you know, how 1858 01:26:04,680 --> 01:26:07,280 Speaker 26: business prices are going as the multiple, so business is 1859 01:26:07,320 --> 01:26:10,439 Speaker 26: usually profit times are multiple. Now that multiple has actually 1860 01:26:10,479 --> 01:26:13,240 Speaker 26: gone up seven percent, so that's almost a better way 1861 01:26:13,280 --> 01:26:15,920 Speaker 26: of realizing our prices of business is going up. And 1862 01:26:15,960 --> 01:26:17,439 Speaker 26: the answer to that is, well, the multiple is going 1863 01:26:17,520 --> 01:26:20,479 Speaker 26: up seven it's gone up seven percent, and that's probably 1864 01:26:20,520 --> 01:26:22,880 Speaker 26: a better test. But yes, you are technically correct. The 1865 01:26:22,920 --> 01:26:24,639 Speaker 26: average has gone down. It's because we've got a really 1866 01:26:24,680 --> 01:26:27,479 Speaker 26: high volume of low price business has been sold at 1867 01:26:27,479 --> 01:26:27,800 Speaker 26: the moment. 1868 01:26:28,280 --> 01:26:31,000 Speaker 2: How do you think the business in the global economy 1869 01:26:31,160 --> 01:26:33,720 Speaker 2: is going to just the uncertainty around what Trump is 1870 01:26:33,760 --> 01:26:35,040 Speaker 2: doing is going to affect sales? 1871 01:26:36,080 --> 01:26:38,160 Speaker 26: Look really good question. I think a lot of these 1872 01:26:38,200 --> 01:26:41,559 Speaker 26: businesses are quite domestically. Obviously, anything with an export element 1873 01:26:41,680 --> 01:26:44,840 Speaker 26: to it that might be goodness. Twenty percent of the 1874 01:26:44,880 --> 01:26:46,600 Speaker 26: businesses we sell, but eighty percent of the business we 1875 01:26:46,680 --> 01:26:50,559 Speaker 26: sell are just domestic focused, and they're more interested in inflation, 1876 01:26:51,080 --> 01:26:54,080 Speaker 26: how much money people are spending domestically. So I would 1877 01:26:54,120 --> 01:26:57,960 Speaker 26: suggest that really it's it's going to have a little 1878 01:26:57,960 --> 01:26:59,120 Speaker 26: bit of an effect, but it's not going to be 1879 01:26:59,200 --> 01:26:59,960 Speaker 26: material or meaningful. 1880 01:27:00,560 --> 01:27:02,200 Speaker 2: Yes, good stuff and please to hear that, Chris, Thank 1881 01:27:02,240 --> 01:27:08,240 Speaker 2: you so much, appreciated Chris Small, ABC Business Sales Managing Director. Well, 1882 01:27:08,280 --> 01:27:10,080 Speaker 2: I mean this was bound to happen. I'm back one 1883 01:27:10,200 --> 01:27:13,000 Speaker 2: day and Tory Farno's made a dick of herself again, 1884 01:27:13,040 --> 01:27:15,320 Speaker 2: hasn't she? Of course she has, because why, I mean, 1885 01:27:15,680 --> 01:27:18,519 Speaker 2: did anything change in the last four months. I don't 1886 01:27:18,560 --> 01:27:22,280 Speaker 2: think so. One of the things what I'm talking about specifically, 1887 01:27:22,920 --> 01:27:25,360 Speaker 2: is the response to one of Tory's bright ideas. Now, 1888 01:27:25,400 --> 01:27:27,400 Speaker 2: one of the things that Tory Farno did was one 1889 01:27:27,439 --> 01:27:28,920 Speaker 2: of the first things she did when she became the 1890 01:27:28,960 --> 01:27:31,720 Speaker 2: mayor of Wellington was to launch a campaign to try 1891 01:27:31,760 --> 01:27:36,080 Speaker 2: to lure Aucklander's to Wellington. I mean, thank god, unfortunately 1892 01:27:36,160 --> 01:27:38,960 Speaker 2: not particularly expensive. She only spent six thousand dollars on it. 1893 01:27:39,680 --> 01:27:41,640 Speaker 2: And what it was was a half paige ad in 1894 01:27:41,760 --> 01:27:43,519 Speaker 2: the Herald. But it sounds of things just one half 1895 01:27:43,560 --> 01:27:45,400 Speaker 2: page ad, So I mean, that's not much of a campaign. 1896 01:27:45,520 --> 01:27:48,479 Speaker 2: Is it more of a self promotion? I would have thought, 1897 01:27:48,479 --> 01:27:50,400 Speaker 2: But anyway, never mind. So she took out a half 1898 01:27:50,439 --> 01:27:53,080 Speaker 2: paige ad in the Herald for six thousand dollars and 1899 01:27:53,160 --> 01:27:56,960 Speaker 2: it said killed a Tarmiki makodo.

Thank you very much. 1933 01:29:33,600 --> 01:29:33,760 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1934 01:29:33,760 --> 01:29:34,960 Speaker 2: How are we going with British Steel? 1935 01:29:37,160 --> 01:29:39,880 Speaker 10: A very very touch and go at the moment, the 1936 01:29:39,960 --> 01:29:44,240 Speaker 10: government called an emergency sitting of Parliament on Saturday, the 1937 01:29:44,320 --> 01:29:47,560 Speaker 10: first time since the Falklands War that's happened back in 1938 01:29:47,640 --> 01:29:50,960 Speaker 10: the early eighties, and both houses, the House of Lords 1939 01:29:51,000 --> 01:29:53,040 Speaker 10: and House of Parliament sat in order to pass through 1940 01:29:53,080 --> 01:29:57,280 Speaker 10: emergency legislation to take over British Steel. Today, the rush 1941 01:29:57,400 --> 01:30:00,439 Speaker 10: is really on to secure the supply of raw materials. 1942 01:30:00,560 --> 01:30:04,400 Speaker 10: It now materializes that the company which had bought British Steel, 1943 01:30:04,439 --> 01:30:08,920 Speaker 10: a Chinese company, had stopped buying any more raw materials 1944 01:30:09,000 --> 01:30:11,640 Speaker 10: to make the steel, and indeed was selling off some 1945 01:30:11,840 --> 01:30:14,280 Speaker 10: of the stocks of the ingredients the iron ore and 1946 01:30:14,400 --> 01:30:17,800 Speaker 10: coal and other raw materials were selling those off, So 1947 01:30:17,920 --> 01:30:20,599 Speaker 10: in other words, they were deliberately running the plant down 1948 01:30:20,800 --> 01:30:23,200 Speaker 10: that the government said it couldn't allow. That's why it 1949 01:30:23,240 --> 01:30:27,759 Speaker 10: took this emergency work. They believe that it's the only 1950 01:30:27,840 --> 01:30:30,519 Speaker 10: place in the UK where you can make prime steel 1951 01:30:30,600 --> 01:30:33,320 Speaker 10: in other words, not from recycled metals, but from the 1952 01:30:33,439 --> 01:30:36,200 Speaker 10: oars themselves, and they said this is far too important 1953 01:30:36,240 --> 01:30:40,360 Speaker 10: to let go. So this relationship with the Jinghi the company, 1954 01:30:40,640 --> 01:30:43,799 Speaker 10: well it certainly looks very fractious, but the government determined 1955 01:30:43,840 --> 01:30:46,120 Speaker 10: to try and keep it going. But the moment those 1956 01:30:46,240 --> 01:30:49,759 Speaker 10: raw materials run out, the danger is those blast furnaces 1957 01:30:49,880 --> 01:30:51,920 Speaker 10: will not reopen and listen. 1958 01:30:51,960 --> 01:30:54,040 Speaker 2: Despite all the big talk from this new government, it's 1959 01:30:54,080 --> 01:30:56,240 Speaker 2: not managed to do anything about the number of migrants 1960 01:30:56,280 --> 01:30:57,200 Speaker 2: crossing the channel, has it. 1961 01:30:58,439 --> 01:30:58,479 Speaker 6: No. 1962 01:30:58,760 --> 01:31:01,839 Speaker 10: The slogan was We're going to smash the gangs, referring 1963 01:31:01,840 --> 01:31:05,519 Speaker 10: to the people smaggling gangs. Well they have made no 1964 01:31:05,720 --> 01:31:08,799 Speaker 10: improvement at all. In fact, the number of migrants arriving 1965 01:31:08,840 --> 01:31:11,639 Speaker 10: in the UK after crossing the English Channel has reached 1966 01:31:11,680 --> 01:31:14,360 Speaker 10: a new record for the first four months of the year. 1967 01:31:14,439 --> 01:31:17,240 Speaker 10: In other words, since this new government has been in. 1968 01:31:18,320 --> 01:31:21,400 Speaker 10: Over the weekend the total went over eight thousand and 1969 01:31:21,720 --> 01:31:25,840 Speaker 10: fifty well less than halfway through April. It's already higher 1970 01:31:25,920 --> 01:31:29,559 Speaker 10: than these seven five hundred and sixty people who crossed 1971 01:31:29,600 --> 01:31:32,240 Speaker 10: the channel over the first four months of last year, 1972 01:31:32,479 --> 01:31:34,840 Speaker 10: and that was a record high at the time. So 1973 01:31:35,080 --> 01:31:37,559 Speaker 10: the big question pressure on the government to do something. 1974 01:31:37,720 --> 01:31:38,280 Speaker 5: What can it do? 1975 01:31:38,439 --> 01:31:41,280 Speaker 10: Well, clearly the plan to smash the gangs is not 1976 01:31:41,560 --> 01:31:44,160 Speaker 10: enough on its own. I appreciate these things take time, 1977 01:31:44,479 --> 01:31:48,280 Speaker 10: but I do think this government and successive governments or 1978 01:31:48,400 --> 01:31:53,080 Speaker 10: predssessing governments have really misunderstood the level of angle that 1979 01:31:53,160 --> 01:31:56,479 Speaker 10: people are having, particularly when they hear migrants in France 1980 01:31:56,560 --> 01:31:59,240 Speaker 10: say we want to get to the UK because in 1981 01:31:59,400 --> 01:32:01,280 Speaker 10: some cases, you know, we want to be put up 1982 01:32:01,320 --> 01:32:05,880 Speaker 10: in a hotel. Well, that bill is costing sixteen million 1983 01:32:06,160 --> 01:32:09,280 Speaker 10: New Zealand dollars a day, and this government seemingly has 1984 01:32:09,400 --> 01:32:11,720 Speaker 10: not got the numbers staying in hotels down either. 1985 01:32:11,960 --> 01:32:14,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, amazing, Okay, how's it going in Birmingham. 1986 01:32:16,439 --> 01:32:20,240 Speaker 10: With great difficulty. So Birmingham has had a rubbish strike, 1987 01:32:20,439 --> 01:32:25,040 Speaker 10: a bin strike since the middle of March. The row 1988 01:32:25,200 --> 01:32:28,400 Speaker 10: is overpay and it's a row with unions. And this 1989 01:32:28,560 --> 01:32:31,200 Speaker 10: is interesting because of course the government, the labor government 1990 01:32:31,280 --> 01:32:34,679 Speaker 10: here is supported by a lot of unions and vice versa. 1991 01:32:35,080 --> 01:32:36,880 Speaker 10: So this is an awkward one for it. This is 1992 01:32:36,920 --> 01:32:40,560 Speaker 10: Birmingham City Council, which is a labor run council, is 1993 01:32:40,720 --> 01:32:44,200 Speaker 10: now having to appeal to neighboring authorities to help and 1994 01:32:44,400 --> 01:32:47,320 Speaker 10: is having to pay them. And now they're even calling 1995 01:32:47,400 --> 01:32:50,080 Speaker 10: in the army to help tackle the crisis. Now, don't 1996 01:32:50,080 --> 01:32:53,240 Speaker 10: get me wrong. This isn't soldiers doing the manual work. 1997 01:32:53,320 --> 01:32:54,600 Speaker 5: This is military. 1998 01:32:54,280 --> 01:32:57,920 Speaker 10: Planners called in to help tackle the mounting piles of rubbish. 1999 01:32:58,400 --> 01:33:03,559 Speaker 10: Seventeen thousands of rubbish are said to have accumulated across 2000 01:33:03,640 --> 01:33:06,360 Speaker 10: Birmingham over the first four weeks at the strike. A 2001 01:33:06,560 --> 01:33:11,560 Speaker 10: recent negotiation did not work. The unions walked away and 2002 01:33:12,080 --> 01:33:15,599 Speaker 10: couldn't get an agreement with the council. The government's trying 2003 01:33:15,760 --> 01:33:17,840 Speaker 10: sort of not to get involved because it doesn't look 2004 01:33:17,920 --> 01:33:20,160 Speaker 10: very good on it, of course being a labor council 2005 01:33:20,439 --> 01:33:23,200 Speaker 10: and supporting the unions, but what a mess. People are 2006 01:33:23,240 --> 01:33:27,240 Speaker 10: reporting terrible problems with bermin and rats and frankly with 2007 01:33:27,400 --> 01:33:30,639 Speaker 10: warm weather. It's been pretty disgusting for the people at Birmingham. 2008 01:33:30,640 --> 01:33:32,720 Speaker 2: Can Imaginekevin, thank you very much, Check you in a 2009 01:33:32,720 --> 01:33:34,439 Speaker 2: couple of days. Look after yourself. It's Kevin gray Are 2010 01:33:34,520 --> 01:33:35,760 Speaker 2: UK correspondent I can. 2011 01:33:35,840 --> 01:33:37,519 Speaker 24: Here we go. So this. 2012 01:33:39,439 --> 01:33:43,720 Speaker 2: Is relevant to probably everybody everywhere, but especially people who 2013 01:33:43,760 --> 01:33:46,479 Speaker 2: are particularly sleep deprived and really need to peck in 2014 01:33:46,479 --> 01:33:48,240 Speaker 2: as much sleep as you possibly can. I'm talking about 2015 01:33:48,240 --> 01:33:50,400 Speaker 2: myself here with a three month old right hair, to 2016 01:33:50,479 --> 01:33:53,439 Speaker 2: get to sleep really quickly. Apparently this is according to 2017 01:33:53,520 --> 01:33:56,200 Speaker 2: new research. Apparently what you need to try is a 2018 01:33:56,280 --> 01:34:00,320 Speaker 2: thing called cognitive shuffling. Now how cognitive shuffling because is 2019 01:34:00,479 --> 01:34:03,960 Speaker 2: basically you have to try and think about random words 2020 01:34:04,439 --> 01:34:06,560 Speaker 2: and then you will fall asleep. And if you do this, 2021 01:34:06,680 --> 01:34:09,599 Speaker 2: you will fall asleep anywhere between five and fifteen minutes. 2022 01:34:09,920 --> 01:34:11,439 Speaker 2: Sounds like a long time to me, but if you're 2023 01:34:11,439 --> 01:34:13,040 Speaker 2: waking up at three am and then you're awake for 2024 01:34:13,080 --> 01:34:15,320 Speaker 2: an hour, five to fifteen minutes is a good time, right. 2025 01:34:15,400 --> 01:34:18,400 Speaker 2: So this is how it works. Pick a word like piano, 2026 01:34:18,920 --> 01:34:21,040 Speaker 2: and then you go through every single one of the 2027 01:34:21,160 --> 01:34:23,840 Speaker 2: letters and you try to find as many words associated 2028 01:34:23,880 --> 01:34:25,960 Speaker 2: with that letter. So, for example, piano starts with P, 2029 01:34:26,520 --> 01:34:30,000 Speaker 2: so you go pair parachute, paul pirouette. Then you go 2030 01:34:30,120 --> 01:34:32,080 Speaker 2: to I and you do that for five to eight seconds, 2031 01:34:32,160 --> 01:34:34,280 Speaker 2: not for particularly long, just as quick as you can 2032 01:34:34,439 --> 01:34:35,880 Speaker 2: in five to eight seconds. Then you go to I 2033 01:34:36,520 --> 01:34:40,360 Speaker 2: and you go item intention immature igloo, and then you 2034 01:34:40,479 --> 01:34:45,439 Speaker 2: go to a Apple and eater as whatever, Apple phone whatever. 2035 01:34:45,720 --> 01:34:49,000 Speaker 2: Then you go to end November nitron, I don't know, 2036 01:34:49,120 --> 01:34:50,680 Speaker 2: you know, and you go work your way through it. 2037 01:34:50,720 --> 01:34:54,080 Speaker 2: And so you basically just you basically just thinks of 2038 01:34:54,120 --> 01:34:57,200 Speaker 2: as many random words as you possibly can and it'll 2039 01:34:57,240 --> 01:34:59,720 Speaker 2: lull you to sleep. Now, not only does that works 2040 01:34:59,720 --> 01:35:02,439 Speaker 2: into two ways. Number One, you're taking your mind off 2041 01:35:02,520 --> 01:35:04,600 Speaker 2: whatever it is that's keeping you awake at night. Right, So, 2042 01:35:04,640 --> 01:35:06,800 Speaker 2: if you're thinking about your mortgage, or you're thinking about 2043 01:35:06,840 --> 01:35:10,120 Speaker 2: how irritating your mother in lawyers or whatever, it's going 2044 01:35:10,200 --> 01:35:12,960 Speaker 2: to take your mind off that. But also apparently when 2045 01:35:13,000 --> 01:35:16,639 Speaker 2: you fall asleep you do a series of little micro dreams. 2046 01:35:17,040 --> 01:35:18,959 Speaker 2: I don't think many of us aware of this. Apparently 2047 01:35:19,320 --> 01:35:21,840 Speaker 2: micro dreams happen where your your mind just kind of 2048 01:35:21,960 --> 01:35:26,560 Speaker 2: like shuffles through fragmented, non li nonlinear thought patterns, and 2049 01:35:26,680 --> 01:35:29,240 Speaker 2: by coming up with random words, you're just mimicking that, 2050 01:35:29,320 --> 01:35:31,479 Speaker 2: and you're basically forcing your brain into a similar thing. 2051 01:35:31,800 --> 01:35:32,960 Speaker 2: Give it a hon I'm going to give it a 2052 01:35:33,000 --> 01:35:36,240 Speaker 2: hern tonight and we'll chat again tomorrow about whether it 2053 01:35:36,320 --> 01:35:38,320 Speaker 2: worked or not. Because it's possible. I've just lead you 2054 01:35:38,439 --> 01:35:40,120 Speaker 2: completely up the garden path. But it's worth a hern, 2055 01:35:40,200 --> 01:35:43,040 Speaker 2: isn't it. Nine Away from seven it's the. 2056 01:35:43,120 --> 01:35:47,719 Speaker 1: Heather Tumplicy Allan Drive Full Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered 2057 01:35:47,800 --> 01:35:48,800 Speaker 1: by Newstalk ZB. 2058 01:35:49,800 --> 01:35:52,360 Speaker 2: Debate debate, debate going on in the team right now 2059 01:35:52,439 --> 01:35:54,639 Speaker 2: as to whether the amount of pawn that's been accessed 2060 01:35:54,680 --> 01:35:56,560 Speaker 2: in the Prime Minister's office is a lot or what 2061 01:35:56,800 --> 01:35:57,840 Speaker 2: was to be fair?
