1 00:00:02,960 --> 00:00:06,880 Speaker 1: Digging through the spithens to find the real story. Boring. 2 00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:11,520 Speaker 1: It's Heather Dupercy Elm drive with One New Zealand Let's 3 00:00:11,520 --> 00:00:13,160 Speaker 1: get connected news talks. 4 00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:17,760 Speaker 2: Ev Hey, good afternoon, Welcome to the show. Coming up today. 5 00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:20,680 Speaker 2: Police Minister Mark Mitchell with us after five to talk 6 00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:22,920 Speaker 2: us through why the police aren't turning up to shop 7 00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:26,320 Speaker 2: lifting below five hundred dollars in New Zealand is bringing 8 00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:28,760 Speaker 2: in jets to fly that Hamilton to christ Church Path. 9 00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:30,639 Speaker 2: We'll get you across that. Plus we're going to speak 10 00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:34,000 Speaker 2: to one New CEO, Jason Paris about how much he 11 00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:37,840 Speaker 2: loves AI and why it freaks most people out. Heather Dupericy, Ellen, 12 00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:40,760 Speaker 2: you want to know what damage control looks like. Look 13 00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:43,120 Speaker 2: at what's going on with the police not investigating thefts 14 00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:47,120 Speaker 2: below five hundred dollars. Revelation yesterday this wasn't a particularly 15 00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:49,880 Speaker 2: big deal. Blair the police officer came on this show. 16 00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:52,479 Speaker 2: He told us nothing new here. When someone calls in 17 00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:55,640 Speaker 2: a theft below five hundred dollars or a petrol drive 18 00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:57,920 Speaker 2: off below one hundred and fifty dollars, it just gets filed. 19 00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:01,960 Speaker 2: It's about it. That's what happens. Big deal today hell, 20 00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:06,120 Speaker 2: what a change today. We've got Richard Chambers, the top cop, 21 00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:09,720 Speaker 2: already made a statement. He just called a press conference 22 00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:12,039 Speaker 2: that's going to be happening in thirty minutes. The Prime 23 00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:15,440 Speaker 2: Minister's office has slammed the directive that's been sent out 24 00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:18,319 Speaker 2: to police staff. He says it was wrong. Mark Mitchell, 25 00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:21,520 Speaker 2: the Police Minister, called into Kerry's show this morning to 26 00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:24,080 Speaker 2: clarify his position on it. Now, when a minister, and 27 00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:27,240 Speaker 2: this is the most significant, when a minister calls talk back, 28 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:29,480 Speaker 2: you know, you're not dealing with a ten out of 29 00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:32,320 Speaker 2: ten sized problem. You're dealing with a fifteen out of 30 00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:36,919 Speaker 2: ten size grenade. This is huge. This is a massive problem. 31 00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 2: Because of course it's a massive problem. I mean, this 32 00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 2: is a government that was elected in part because it 33 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:44,560 Speaker 2: promised to deal with retail crime and crime generally. Now, 34 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:46,959 Speaker 2: what I cannot understand is what they think they're doing today, 35 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:50,280 Speaker 2: because every single one of them, from Richard Chambers to 36 00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 2: Mark Mitchell to the Prime Minister, I think, although I'm 37 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 2: prepared to cut him some slack on this, but the 38 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 2: other two are trying to pretend that the memo was 39 00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:00,240 Speaker 2: a mistake and that's not going to happen, and the 40 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,200 Speaker 2: police are going to turn up to all retail crime. 41 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 2: No they're not. It's simply not possible. On the numbers. 42 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:10,000 Speaker 2: There are more than a million offenses every year. There 43 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:15,040 Speaker 2: are only ten thousand police officers. They simply cannot investigate 44 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:17,119 Speaker 2: them all. They cannot even turn up to them all. 45 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:21,120 Speaker 2: There are countless examples of already of police not investigating 46 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:23,520 Speaker 2: stolen stuff worth even more than five hundred dollars. I mean, 47 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:25,320 Speaker 2: there was the case of the three thy six hundred 48 00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 2: dollars mountain bike that the cops were told exactly where 49 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,400 Speaker 2: it was and they didn't go and get it. So 50 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:34,400 Speaker 2: five hundred dollars is probably not even accurate. Mark Mitchell 51 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 2: and the police boss have got a problem on their 52 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:39,440 Speaker 2: hands here because it is clearly a shock to people 53 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:42,080 Speaker 2: to see in writing that the cops are not going 54 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,800 Speaker 2: to turn up for low level crime. But pretending today 55 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 2: that the cops will turn up is not a strategy 56 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 2: because I can tell you what the next crime that 57 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,120 Speaker 2: an officer doesn't turn up to go straight to the 58 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 2: front page of where the Herald, right, so we can 59 00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:57,119 Speaker 2: all read about it in its glory, and it will 60 00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,360 Speaker 2: prove that the memo was right. After all, we're going 61 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:02,080 Speaker 2: to find the true out anyway. So when Mark Mitchell 62 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:05,400 Speaker 2: and the Prime Minister and the police boster all this 63 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:08,160 Speaker 2: damage control today, I reckon a mayor. Just pay to 64 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 2: be honest about what's really going. 65 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:12,040 Speaker 1: On, Heather do for ce Ellen. 66 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 2: Nine two nine two is the text number, standard text 67 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 2: fees apply, hit me with it. Now onto something altogether different, 68 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 2: which is politics. Of course, Winston Peters he has today 69 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:22,919 Speaker 2: ruled out working with Labour leader Chris Hipkins in any 70 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:25,960 Speaker 2: future coalition. He's not ruled out working with Labor, just 71 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 2: ruled out working with Chippy. Now, what that means is 72 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,080 Speaker 2: that dries up the most credible paths of victory for Labor. 73 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 2: It means that they would most likely need to form 74 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:36,840 Speaker 2: a coalition with the Greens and the Maori Party in 75 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 2: order to form a government after the next election. Now 76 00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 2: Chris Hipkins is the opposition leader. 77 00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 3: High Chippy, go today, Heather, how are you? 78 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 2: I'm very well, thank you? How are you? Because this 79 00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:46,800 Speaker 2: means you're not going to be Prime minister. 80 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:49,840 Speaker 3: I think it means that Winston Peters are saying that 81 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 3: a vote for him as a vote for Christopher lux 82 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 3: and David Seymore and Winston Peters to continue to run 83 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 3: their coalition of chaos. I think of New Zealander's want 84 00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 3: to government, where Winston Peter's and David c aren't holding 85 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 3: the country to rent them on a daily basis, they 86 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 3: need to give their. 87 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 4: Vote to labor. 88 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, but I mean this is a problem for you now, 89 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 2: isn't it chippy? Because the alternatives for you the only 90 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 2: option you are left with. You're left with two options 91 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:16,480 Speaker 2: that I can see. Number one, majority labor government that's 92 00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 2: not going to happen for ages because of what you 93 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:20,920 Speaker 2: guys did last time. Or number two you guys plus 94 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:22,640 Speaker 2: the Greens and the Maldi Party and there's no way 95 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:24,160 Speaker 2: Center voters are going to go for that. So your 96 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 2: options are dried up, haven't they. 97 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 3: Oh look, there's still plenty of water to flow under 98 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,040 Speaker 3: the bridge yet. But my goal is to get out 99 00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 3: there and grow labors. 100 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:33,440 Speaker 2: What is that here? But I mean, come on, be realistic. 101 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 2: What's that water going to change? The water can flow 102 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 2: under the bridge, what changes? 103 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 4: Oh? 104 00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:39,920 Speaker 3: Look, lots can change. But my goal is to grow 105 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 3: what vote during that time? You know, I don't think 106 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:43,840 Speaker 3: it's true. I think, frankly, I think it's too. It's 107 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:47,680 Speaker 3: premature to be talking about potential coalitions yet. You know, 108 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:49,200 Speaker 3: I think we've got to get out there in each 109 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:51,599 Speaker 3: campaign for our you know, for our own share of 110 00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 3: the vote. And then you know, MMP does require parties 111 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 3: to work together. But I think unlike this government, you know, 112 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 3: we will have some bottom line and we'll set those 113 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:03,240 Speaker 3: out before the election. And you know, we're not just 114 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:05,200 Speaker 3: going to allow the smaller parties to call all the 115 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:07,200 Speaker 3: shots in the way that Christopher Luxin and the National 116 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 3: Party currently are doing. 117 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:10,000 Speaker 2: You have got a giant target on your back in 118 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,240 Speaker 2: that party, now, haven't you. 119 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 4: No, not at all. 120 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:15,600 Speaker 2: You're the problem, Chippy, You're the problem. He said. It's 121 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:17,920 Speaker 2: not a Labor problem. It's a Chippy problem. So if 122 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,800 Speaker 2: I was, if I was a right thinking person in 123 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:23,080 Speaker 2: the Labor Party right now and saw you as being 124 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:25,480 Speaker 2: the problem, you're literally the thing that stops them from 125 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 2: becoming a government. You know, perhaps with Winston Peters, i'd 126 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:29,160 Speaker 2: roll you. 127 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:31,839 Speaker 3: I think most people in the Labor Party look at 128 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 3: Winston Peters and I think we'd rather not have to. 129 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 4: Work with them anyway. 130 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:37,840 Speaker 3: I mean, his views are quite incompatible with ours. 131 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 4: It's not the same. 132 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 5: That's not incompatible ten years ago. 133 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 2: Come on, what are you telling me that your views 134 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:43,839 Speaker 2: are more aligned with the Maori Party? 135 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 3: Frankly, I'm not interested in some of the stuff that 136 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 3: Winston Beaters keeps being on. 137 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 2: Are you interested in some of the stuff the Malory 138 00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:51,599 Speaker 2: Party is doing at the moment? 139 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 3: No, because I think both of them are trying to 140 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:55,720 Speaker 3: provoke a culture or that I have no interest in 141 00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:56,480 Speaker 3: getting involved. 142 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:58,159 Speaker 2: And so who are you going to How are you 143 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:00,440 Speaker 2: going to become government chippy? You can't do it your own? 144 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:04,120 Speaker 3: Well, you know, look, as I said, plenty of water 145 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 3: to flow under the bridge before the next election, Mike 146 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 3: got My goal is to grow Labors vote as large 147 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 3: as I can because, come on, the bigger Labour's year 148 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 3: of the vote, the less influenced the smaller parties get. 149 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 3: That's the simple maths of MMP. 150 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:17,240 Speaker 2: What do you think Do you think some sort of 151 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 2: floating down this river and through under the bridge is 152 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:23,120 Speaker 2: some sort of magical party that you can now coalis with? 153 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 2: Is the Unicorn Party is going to arrive? 154 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:29,280 Speaker 3: I think New Zealanders deserve to have the opportunity to 155 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:31,800 Speaker 3: have a say on this, rather than us predetermining it 156 00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:34,159 Speaker 3: all for them. And they do that in the form 157 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:36,359 Speaker 3: of a general election. What we will do before the 158 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 3: election is set out which parties we think we can 159 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 3: find common ground within, which parties we don't think we 160 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 3: can find common ground with. And that will also include 161 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 3: setting out what is and isn't on the table, because 162 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 3: you're not going to that. We simply wouldn't want. 163 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:51,160 Speaker 2: Are you going to go to the public and say, 164 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,599 Speaker 2: do you know what, I can't work with Winston, but jeez, 165 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 2: I can work with that, Debbie and Lawity. Are you 166 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 2: going to do that? 167 00:06:57,279 --> 00:06:59,600 Speaker 3: No, I've said before the election we will set out 168 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 3: exactly who we can and can't work with, but we'll 169 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:02,640 Speaker 3: do that closer to the election. 170 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:05,960 Speaker 2: You need to stop listening to Willie Jackson, but you 171 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:08,799 Speaker 2: know that he does not represent normal people. Ah. 172 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:11,880 Speaker 3: We will do that based on where we think we 173 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 3: can work with other parties, where we can find common ground, 174 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 3: I like Winston Peters. It won't be based on PT vendettas. 175 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 3: It will be based on points of principle. 176 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:24,080 Speaker 2: Thank you for your time to be as always. Chris Hopkins, 177 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:27,360 Speaker 2: Labor Party leader here they tell him is dreamer. He's dreaming, 178 00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 2: you know. Can I just tell you quickly just very quickly. 179 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 2: My reference to Willie, I reckon Willie because what's going 180 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:35,080 Speaker 2: on is Chippy comes out and he says, I'm going 181 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 2: to do blah blah blah, and then he goes into 182 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 2: that caucus meeting, and then will he makes some changes. 183 00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 2: Might remember he was all like, I'm going to say 184 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:44,360 Speaker 2: I'm not going to fill a buster on the Marty parties, hucker. 185 00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:45,800 Speaker 2: Then he went into the caucus room. Then he came 186 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:47,280 Speaker 2: out and he was like, hmm, I think I'm going 187 00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 2: to fill a buster now. I reckon. I reckon Willy's 188 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 2: got way too much sway in there. And Willie, because 189 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:54,720 Speaker 2: he's tight with j T, he doesn't realize that the 190 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:58,720 Speaker 2: Marty Party are a bit He thinks that it's okay anyway, whatever. 191 00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 2: We'll talk about this later on. Plenty more thoughts on this, 192 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:04,560 Speaker 2: and actually on that subject, Stu Nash reckons that they're 193 00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 2: going to have to roll Chippy.

Some respect would be nice, 202 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:38,640 Speaker 2: for example, just quoting the text that I got from Neil. However, 203 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 2: today I seem to have just an abundance of these texts. 204 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 2: Now I'm prepared to deal with this.

And we will 213 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:07,840 Speaker 2: deal with it forthwith. 214 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 6: I did a bigger problem with calling politicians right and honorable? 215 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:13,160 Speaker 7: Where do they come from? Quite well, how do they 216 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 7: demand that, you know? Just whatever? They're politicians? Politics? 217 00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:18,880 Speaker 2: Send it to me nine to nine two. We're going 218 00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 2: to sort this out once again for all them. We're 219 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:21,800 Speaker 2: not going to talk about it ever again. 220 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 7: Woman of the people. 221 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:24,920 Speaker 2: I've got a serious voice on now, Darcy. 222 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:26,880 Speaker 7: Jeez. 223 00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:29,439 Speaker 2: I mean, we said that this was going to happen, 224 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:31,719 Speaker 2: nobody expected it would happen this quickly. But now we 225 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:35,600 Speaker 2: have a nineteen year old dead from playing Run It Straight. Apparently, Well, it's. 226 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:38,439 Speaker 6: Not run it Straight, the official version. It was a 227 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:39,679 Speaker 6: backyard version of. 228 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 7: Run It Straight. But it's the same thing. It's copycat action. 229 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 6: It's all over social media and I've seen quite a 230 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 6: lot of that, also the new one where it's basically 231 00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 6: people having a one minute brawl in the backyard, and 232 00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 6: that is terrifying. Whoa waiting was something to go wrong there? 233 00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:59,720 Speaker 6: So copycat played a game of that. Hen injury couldn't 234 00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:02,600 Speaker 6: come from from died Palms the North last. 235 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:06,559 Speaker 2: Night, seriously, assuming no underlying issues, How hard do you 236 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:08,079 Speaker 2: have to knock your head to die from it? 237 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:09,439 Speaker 7: You've got to. 238 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 6: Look at the reaction of your brain within the fluid. 239 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:15,680 Speaker 7: In your cranial. 240 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 6: Cavity was the word I was looking at, Thank you 241 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:19,559 Speaker 6: very much. 242 00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:21,400 Speaker 7: So you can call me chippy if you nott doing that. 243 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:26,440 Speaker 6: But it bounces against the inside of your head and 244 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:29,880 Speaker 6: also with your spinal cord and your spinal column. If 245 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:33,080 Speaker 6: that takes a whack with whipblash, that can do damage 246 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 6: as well. And if it's just a collision, yes, it 247 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 6: can do a huge amount of damage. The thing is, 248 00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:40,800 Speaker 6: there's no mitigating factors when you're in a backyard. I suppose, 249 00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:43,400 Speaker 6: at least with rugby league rugby union, you've got stand 250 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 6: down periods for concussion, You've got people watching you, you get 251 00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:48,320 Speaker 6: dragged off the park, you looked at this is just 252 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:53,120 Speaker 6: it's sad. It's guys falling around the backyard and bang, 253 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:56,479 Speaker 6: and it just shows how fragile human life. 254 00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:58,959 Speaker 7: Is that people need to listen to this. 255 00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:03,840 Speaker 6: You on not undestructible. Your body is pretty strong, but 256 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 6: it's also got huge frailties and for a death to 257 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 6: actually occur, for people to stand up and take notice. 258 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 6: And I'm looking at teams and players that have got 259 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:19,480 Speaker 6: to connect with professional sport when they stand next to 260 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 6: us or be seen in the game of this and go, hey, 261 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:25,959 Speaker 6: that's good, that that's that's that's encouraging. 262 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 2: People approximate to mate from the rabbits. 263 00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:31,079 Speaker 6: To be involved with your friend from the rabbitize that 264 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 6: there is legitimizing the fact that this is really, really 265 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:41,000 Speaker 6: dangerous stupid. It's just well, I've joked about it being 266 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:43,520 Speaker 6: a Darwin theory thing, but I think. 267 00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:44,960 Speaker 7: Education is massive. 268 00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 6: People aren't educated as to what you may do in 269 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:51,800 Speaker 6: a situation like this. They're going to keep going into 270 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,080 Speaker 6: We've got to type portray a Hume joining us on 271 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:59,560 Speaker 6: the program. Who's involved with a U T when it 272 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:04,320 Speaker 6: comes to the collision of human bodies and pathways and 273 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 6: human bodies and what they can and can't cope with. 274 00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:11,280 Speaker 6: She was instrumental twenty odd years ago in the ACC 275 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 6: programs around looking after concussive health and the like. 276 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:18,680 Speaker 7: So she'll join us to talk about that. It's just awful. 277 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 6: I'd rather not, but I think on this platform, the 278 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 6: amount of people that we contact, we have to make 279 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 6: a point of this, and we have to put it 280 00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:32,040 Speaker 6: out there so people actually know. It's uncomfortable, as unpleasant 281 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 6: actually as and I feel so much for his family, 282 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:37,680 Speaker 6: for the other person involved in the collision. 283 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:39,720 Speaker 7: It's just all around hole. 284 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:42,800 Speaker 2: Darcy, thank you, listen. You'll be doing World's you know, 285 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,120 Speaker 2: the very good thing to talk about it this evening. 286 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 2: Darcy Wadgrave sports talk host seven o'clock. He'll be back for. 287 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 1: Twenty two moving the big stories of the day forward. Aw, 288 00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:57,160 Speaker 1: it's Heather Duplicy on drive with one New Zealand let's 289 00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:58,839 Speaker 1: get connected the news talks. 290 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 2: That'd be The supermarket that my wife works at has 291 00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:05,840 Speaker 2: had two staff meetings today with regards to the expected 292 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:09,040 Speaker 2: uptake and shoplifting. They are now placing two guards at 293 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:10,920 Speaker 2: the door day and night. The costs will be passed 294 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:11,839 Speaker 2: on that. Thank you for that, Ben. 295 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:12,040 Speaker 8: Yes. 296 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:15,240 Speaker 2: So this is basically the fact that the as if 297 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:17,640 Speaker 2: they didn't realize it already, the crims have been given 298 00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:20,640 Speaker 2: a heads up that they can shoplift up to a point. Look, 299 00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:23,520 Speaker 2: I think I'm getting a and you know, without any 300 00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:25,800 Speaker 2: kind of consequences, IM getting a fair few texts saying look, 301 00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 2: nothing has changed, we'll already do that. I know that 302 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:31,480 Speaker 2: we all knew that that was abundantly clear. It's also 303 00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:34,720 Speaker 2: clear that five hundred dollars is not even really the cutoff. 304 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:36,880 Speaker 2: It's probably much higher than that. But to see it 305 00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:40,199 Speaker 2: written down is confirmation in a way that we were 306 00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 2: sort of guessing at it before, we were filling in 307 00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:45,320 Speaker 2: those blanks before. Now we know it's five hundred dollars. 308 00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 2: Now we know you fill your car up one full nine, 309 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:49,040 Speaker 2: one hundred and forty nine bucks at the local gas 310 00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:51,040 Speaker 2: station drive off. Nothing's going to happen about it. Go 311 00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 2: one hundred and fifty one. Maybe maybe they come for you. Okay, Heather, 312 00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:59,640 Speaker 2: I don't mind you calling him chippy. It's all part 313 00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:02,120 Speaker 2: of them. He tries to portray himself as an everyday 314 00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 2: New Zealander. I don't think he's fooling many of us, 315 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:06,240 Speaker 2: as if to say that, I'm making him a little 316 00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 2: bit more. I'm humanizing him, Heather. Um, I don't like 317 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:13,640 Speaker 2: you calling him chippy because it makes him sound cute 318 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:16,480 Speaker 2: and adorable instead of the lying and competent two face 319 00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 2: toad that he is. Heather, nicknames for any politicians sound 320 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:22,840 Speaker 2: like you're too familiar with him. Whether you are or 321 00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:25,680 Speaker 2: not becomes irrelevant. It's the impression that that has been left. 322 00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:31,440 Speaker 2: Thank you, Graham, Heather, you're being too flippant with Chippy. Hepkins. 323 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 2: Calling him chippy also very disrespectful. And I'm not even 324 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 2: a labor of osire. So apparently I'm humanizing him. I'm 325 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:39,840 Speaker 2: making him sound likable, but I'm also disrespecting him at 326 00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:42,080 Speaker 2: the same time. Hither. It is childish and makes you 327 00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:45,360 Speaker 2: sound like a twit. Thank you, Bruce Hither. Because you're 328 00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:47,680 Speaker 2: disrespectful when it comes to ministers of the Crown is 329 00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 2: why you're getting texts chippy bish and so on. They 330 00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:52,040 Speaker 2: have a title and you should respect that when you're 331 00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:53,920 Speaker 2: speaking to them.

Can you please ask Mark Mitchell. If the cops 351 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:01,480 Speaker 2: are absolving themselves and dealing as to anyone stealing lower 352 00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:04,160 Speaker 2: priced items from my shop, am I absolved from administering 353 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:07,480 Speaker 2: some justice myself, Jaseon I might get round to that, 354 00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:10,680 Speaker 2: but on that subject, Richard Chambers, the Police Commissioner, as 355 00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:12,560 Speaker 2: I told you, had called a press conference for about 356 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,120 Speaker 2: four thirty. He's just in the middle of holding that 357 00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:15,640 Speaker 2: right now. 358 00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:17,720 Speaker 10: We won't always be able to be there, but we 359 00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 10: will do our absolute best for the retail community to 360 00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:23,600 Speaker 10: hold offenders to account. When we think about the processes 361 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:26,600 Speaker 10: that we have internally to address demand, we must also 362 00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:30,600 Speaker 10: be thinking about the impact of those decisions externally. Our 363 00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:33,480 Speaker 10: role is law enforcement. We're working incredibly hard with the 364 00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:37,880 Speaker 10: retail community, and the memo was inconsistent with my expectations. 365 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:41,040 Speaker 10: I have not spoken to the individual myself, but I 366 00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:43,240 Speaker 10: think the Commissioner coming out and being very clear about 367 00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 10: my expectations is probably sufficient. 368 00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:47,120 Speaker 2: He also explained why the dollar value is not a 369 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:49,200 Speaker 2: good indicator of what should be investigated. 370 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 10: When we deal with crime, we often apply a series 371 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:57,640 Speaker 10: of criteria to help us prioritize, and I understand that 372 00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 10: the intent of that person was to provide some criteria 373 00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:04,439 Speaker 10: that might help prioritize, but the reality is that is 374 00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:08,439 Speaker 10: only one consideration in the complex world of crime that 375 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:13,800 Speaker 10: we deal with, and when it comes to dollar thresholds, actually, personally, 376 00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:16,640 Speaker 10: I don't think that's relevant. It's you know, if we're 377 00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:21,040 Speaker 10: dealing with retail crime, we're dealing with offenders, particularly serial offenders. 378 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:24,280 Speaker 10: You can't apply a dollar figure to make decisions. 379 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:28,199 Speaker 2: I think so twenty three away from five it's the 380 00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:31,760 Speaker 2: world wires on youth dogs they'd be drive so. In 381 00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 2: the UK, police say that that Liverpool car ramming was 382 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:37,480 Speaker 2: not terror related. A man has been arrested after a 383 00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:41,119 Speaker 2: car was driven directly into a Liverpool FC victory parade 384 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:43,880 Speaker 2: injuring twenty seven people, and that of course includes kids. 385 00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:46,879 Speaker 2: Here's the Merseyside Police Assistant Chief Constable that. 386 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:51,080 Speaker 11: People do not speculate or spread misinformation on social media. 387 00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:56,600 Speaker 11: I know that people will understandardly be concerned by what 388 00:17:56,760 --> 00:18:00,800 Speaker 11: has happened tonight. What I can tell you is that 389 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:03,640 Speaker 11: we believe this to be an isolated incident. 390 00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:06,679 Speaker 2: And to France, Emanuel mccran says his wife was joking 391 00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:10,000 Speaker 2: around when she pushed him. She was caught this as 392 00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:13,640 Speaker 2: Brigitte she was caught on camera shoving the French president's 393 00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:15,960 Speaker 2: face right before they got off the plane.

Is that because she's angry? 397 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:28,800 Speaker 12: Is that because she is I'm trying to take an 398 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:30,160 Speaker 12: eyelasher out. 399 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:30,639 Speaker 7: Of his face. 400 00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:34,200 Speaker 12: Then as they come down the stairs, certainly she seems 401 00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:36,800 Speaker 12: as if she's not very happy about something. He extends 402 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:40,320 Speaker 12: his arm as if to offer her support, and she 403 00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:41,199 Speaker 12: ignores her. 404 00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:46,320 Speaker 2: And finally, international researchers have found more evidence that a 405 00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:48,439 Speaker 2: site in Turkey may be the final resting place of 406 00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:51,959 Speaker 2: Noah's Ark.

What's going 459 00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:31,920 Speaker 2: on with the coalition? Are they making up? 460 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:34,280 Speaker 4: Well, they're going to kiss and make up. They have 461 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:37,879 Speaker 4: to because both of them, you know, there's much, you know, 462 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:40,879 Speaker 4: as much use as a two leagued stool, you know, 463 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:44,200 Speaker 4: because they can't do anything on their own. And he's 464 00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:46,720 Speaker 4: David Little Proud, the Nationals Party leader. I mean, I'm 465 00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:48,800 Speaker 4: not sure what happened. He must've got a rush of 466 00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:50,679 Speaker 4: blood to the head when he saw how many seats 467 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 4: the Liberals have lost, the senior coalition partner, and he 468 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:56,199 Speaker 4: said right, He puffed up his little pigeon chest, said right, oh, 469 00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:57,800 Speaker 4: I'm going to go and I'm going to give her 470 00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:00,280 Speaker 4: a piece of my mind. And you the new a 471 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:03,359 Speaker 4: female leader of the Liberal Party. Well that lasted forty 472 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:07,680 Speaker 4: eight hours. Cooler heads prevailed. They said, listen, David, I'm sorry, 473 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:09,959 Speaker 4: you can't do that. He had the back down. It's 474 00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:12,560 Speaker 4: humiliating back down, but he says, oh no, no, no, no, no, 475 00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:15,520 Speaker 4: no no way, we back down, no way, we flip flopped. 476 00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:18,120 Speaker 4: But they are going to be getting back together maybe 477 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:21,119 Speaker 4: as early as tomorrow. They've had some pretty productive talks. 478 00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:25,120 Speaker 4: We understand the liberal parties agreed to at least look 479 00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:28,720 Speaker 4: at the four non negotiable policies the Nationals put up 480 00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:31,320 Speaker 4: and it's not going to be harmony by any means, 481 00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:34,000 Speaker 4: and Little Proud may yet lose his leadership, but at 482 00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:36,679 Speaker 4: least the coalition is going to be roughly on the 483 00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:37,639 Speaker 4: same page. 484 00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:39,760 Speaker 2: That's just really quickly. How's that clean up going? 485 00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:44,679 Speaker 4: Dreadful? I mean just dreadful. You've got ten thousand homes 486 00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:49,400 Speaker 4: have been inundated in northern New South Wales. They've inspected 487 00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:52,639 Speaker 4: five three hundred of them as of this morning, nearly 488 00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:55,920 Speaker 4: nine hundred. You can't live in them anymore, so maybe 489 00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:58,440 Speaker 4: double that for the time they've finished these assessments. That's 490 00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:01,600 Speaker 4: the best part of fifteen sixteen hundred homes that cannot 491 00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:06,200 Speaker 4: be lived in, So that's dreadful. You've got people still 492 00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 4: cut off by the floodwaters that are out there, are 493 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:11,520 Speaker 4: the dropping off food and medicine, the dropping off ay 494 00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:15,440 Speaker 4: for stock, and you've still got now another weather event. 495 00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:17,800 Speaker 4: You've got strong winds up there that were threatening this 496 00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:21,080 Speaker 4: morning to ground every helicopter up there. That's been used 497 00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:24,439 Speaker 4: to get this medicine, food and fodder out and about. 498 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:27,760 Speaker 4: It's just horrible. The Prime Minister up there today, they're 499 00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:29,560 Speaker 4: going to throw all sorts of money at it.

You can't bribe Mother Nature, can you? 501 00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:33,680 Speaker 13: No, not at all. 502 00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:35,680 Speaker 2: Hey, Mars, thank you, look after yourself.

There's no way that by 505 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:47,480 Speaker 2: the way, the I don't know if you've seen the video, 506 00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:49,640 Speaker 2: but it is like something like honestly, if you saw 507 00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:52,840 Speaker 2: that in a it feels like slapstick. The timing of 508 00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:55,119 Speaker 2: it is just unbelievable. Have to see it to understand 509 00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:56,800 Speaker 2: what I'm talking about. But the timing of him being 510 00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:58,879 Speaker 2: pushed in the face, then looking out the door, realizing 511 00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:00,840 Speaker 2: the door is down, and sat like waving at people, 512 00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:03,200 Speaker 2: it's just unreal.

I mean, if you're a government 543 00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:23,040 Speaker 14: that has basically hung your hat on getting tough on 544 00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:26,560 Speaker 14: crime and then you get see something like this being reported, 545 00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:29,040 Speaker 14: obviously you're not going to be pleased. This is what 546 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:30,400 Speaker 14: he said earlier today. 547 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:31,359 Speaker 4: They got that wrong. 548 00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:33,200 Speaker 8: We're a party of law and order. 549 00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:35,000 Speaker 15: We expect out police to tackle. 550 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:37,920 Speaker 16: Crime everywhere and that's good to see you clarify. 551 00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:40,400 Speaker 14: That such Now he's talking about the Police Commissioner having 552 00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:42,919 Speaker 14: to come out and say that this memo that was 553 00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:46,320 Speaker 14: sent around about police not investigating crime below five hundred 554 00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:49,840 Speaker 14: dollars was confusing and unhelpful. And he goes on to 555 00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 14: say that the memo was wrong in an appropriate and 556 00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:54,280 Speaker 14: hours beforehand, and I think I heard you making this 557 00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:57,440 Speaker 14: point earlier in the afternoon. How the Police Minister Mark 558 00:25:57,440 --> 00:26:01,399 Speaker 14: Mitchell actually called into talk back with Kerry clarify the situation. 559 00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:04,520 Speaker 14: And you know you're not calling in talkback if you're 560 00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:07,440 Speaker 14: happy with how the situation is going. And of course 561 00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:10,000 Speaker 14: it's a terrible look for this government. I mean that 562 00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:13,679 Speaker 14: what I think has happened here is that there has 563 00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 14: always been potentially some sort of an unwritten rule, because 564 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:20,080 Speaker 14: you know that the police can't be everywhere all the time, 565 00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:22,000 Speaker 14: all at once, and there needs to be sort of 566 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:25,040 Speaker 14: some level here. But somebody's made the mistake of actually 567 00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:27,359 Speaker 14: writing it down and sending it off and that's the 568 00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:30,280 Speaker 14: in turn been leaked to media, and of course it 569 00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:32,639 Speaker 14: leaves to all sorts of trouble for the Prime Minister 570 00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:35,280 Speaker 14: and his police minister. So I can get why he's 571 00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:37,960 Speaker 14: not happy, but I can also get why this sort 572 00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:39,119 Speaker 14: of thing has actually happened. 573 00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:42,040 Speaker 2: Okay, will you actually at his press conference. 574 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:44,240 Speaker 14: The Prime Minister's no, unfortunately it was up in Auckland. 575 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 2: Okay, but you've watched the thing, right I did. 576 00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:47,520 Speaker 8: Yes. 577 00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:50,160 Speaker 2: Did he at any point say that it is not true? 578 00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:52,840 Speaker 14: No, he didn't say that it wasn't true. He just 579 00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:55,000 Speaker 14: kept coming back to the fact that you know it 580 00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:56,880 Speaker 14: was confusing and unhealthful and that. 581 00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 2: You shouldn't so it is definitely happening. 582 00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:01,919 Speaker 14: Well, listen, and the Prime minister that didn't deny that 583 00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:04,239 Speaker 14: this was the thing, and he if he wanted to 584 00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:06,480 Speaker 14: use that opportunity to say yes, I've had a briefing 585 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:08,399 Speaker 14: this is in fact not the case because of X 586 00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:10,399 Speaker 14: y Z. You wouldn't come out and see that. The 587 00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:13,119 Speaker 14: top brass of the police was it was unhelpful for 588 00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:14,720 Speaker 14: them to do something because it wasn't true. 589 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:16,720 Speaker 2: So they're angry that somebody wrote down the thing that 590 00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:17,200 Speaker 2: they're doing. 591 00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:20,639 Speaker 14: Basically, yeah, somebody said the thing that they should have 592 00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:21,480 Speaker 14: said out loud, you know. 593 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:25,920 Speaker 2: Okay, Now, why is Chippy so keen to hold the scrudge? Well, Winnie, 594 00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:27,679 Speaker 2: why is Winnie holding the scrudge against Chippy? 595 00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:30,760 Speaker 14: What's going before we get you call him Chippy too? 596 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:33,280 Speaker 14: And I heard you do that before because I said 597 00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:36,360 Speaker 14: Chippy when I was on my mid day cross and 598 00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:38,320 Speaker 14: I was like, oh, is that a little bit too familiar? 599 00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:40,119 Speaker 14: But it just kind of rolled off the tongue. I 600 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:43,399 Speaker 14: think it's because it's the colloquial name that we've developed him. Anyway, 601 00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:46,119 Speaker 14: that's that's a little bit off track track. But yeah, 602 00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:48,600 Speaker 14: he's a bit annoyed. I mean, here's what he said 603 00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:49,439 Speaker 14: about him this morning. 604 00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:51,640 Speaker 3: I think, frankly, New Zealanders have had enough of being 605 00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:54,119 Speaker 3: held to ransom by Winston Peters and David Seymour. I 606 00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:56,119 Speaker 3: think they want to get back to the idea that 607 00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:58,960 Speaker 3: the government's there to serve people rather than serve themselves, 608 00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:01,040 Speaker 3: which you know Winston Peter as frankly as a master rate. 609 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:03,040 Speaker 14: Yeah, so's there's a little bit of beef, a little 610 00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:05,159 Speaker 14: bit probably under selling it a little bit. There is 611 00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:07,000 Speaker 14: beef between the two of them, which is why I 612 00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:09,280 Speaker 14: think Winston came out as strong as he did this 613 00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:11,480 Speaker 14: morning saying that he would not be forming or have 614 00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:15,400 Speaker 14: any post government conversations with the Labor Party under Chris Hipkins. 615 00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:18,320 Speaker 14: So there is a distinction between a Labor Party under 616 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:21,000 Speaker 14: Chris Hipkins and a Labor Party in general. I mean, 617 00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:22,960 Speaker 14: you know, you never know what happens afterwards. 618 00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:23,840 Speaker 4: But it's an. 619 00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:26,439 Speaker 14: Interesting move for Winston because, as you know, it's not 620 00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:30,399 Speaker 14: really his sort of a move that he does ruling 621 00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:31,160 Speaker 14: things in and out. 622 00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:33,680 Speaker 2: No, his style is very much to leave every option open, 623 00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:36,959 Speaker 2: isn't it, like literally like literally after the election. 624 00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:39,480 Speaker 14: Yeah, and it's I mean, look at the way m 625 00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 14: MP has worked in the last or since it's come 626 00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:44,120 Speaker 14: into force. I mean, nobody's done it better than Winston. 627 00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:46,680 Speaker 14: And because it's because of things like this, people vote 628 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:49,680 Speaker 14: for Winston because they get they get good things out 629 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:51,520 Speaker 14: of it as far as they're concerned. They have so 630 00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:54,760 Speaker 14: much leverage. I mean, there's a reason why Winston got 631 00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:56,760 Speaker 14: quite a bit more than the Greens out of ar 632 00:28:56,840 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 14: Dern was because that, you know, everybody knows that the 633 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:02,080 Speaker 14: Greens are going to go with the left leaning parties 634 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:04,200 Speaker 14: at the end of the day, and Whiston is, you know, 635 00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:06,400 Speaker 14: we'll go whatever way he thinks that he's going to 636 00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:09,080 Speaker 14: get the best deal. But it was quite interesting exactly, 637 00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:10,600 Speaker 14: And it was quite interesting when you were having a 638 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:14,480 Speaker 14: chat with Chris Hopkins just before. He was not thinking 639 00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:17,000 Speaker 14: that it was a foregone conclusion that he'd actually be 640 00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:18,720 Speaker 14: working with Greens and Tibarti Mardi. 641 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:20,680 Speaker 3: Look, there's still plenty of water to flow under the 642 00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:21,960 Speaker 3: bridge yet, so. 643 00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 14: There must be a lot of water to flow under 644 00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:26,040 Speaker 14: that labor bridge to mean that he's not going to 645 00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:27,240 Speaker 14: have to work with both of them. 646 00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:29,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's a very good point. Hey, thank you 647 00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:32,680 Speaker 2: very much. I really appreciate it.

There's a directive to police staff that tells 655 00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:53,520 Speaker 17: them they will no longer be investigating shoplifting if it's 656 00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:56,200 Speaker 17: less than five hundred bucks. Sunday Kershel, chairperson of the 657 00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:58,960 Speaker 17: Ministry of Justice's Retail Crime Group. If it's true, this 658 00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:00,960 Speaker 17: goes against what you're working towards. 659 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:02,920 Speaker 18: That's very true. You know, we thought we are making 660 00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:06,440 Speaker 18: us progress and these kind of instructions hinders the work 661 00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:09,080 Speaker 18: that we're doing.

Per Richard Chambers, 677 00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:48,680 Speaker 2: the Police Commissioner was just as I told you holding 678 00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:50,520 Speaker 2: this press conference about what on earth is going on 679 00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 2: with them not dealing with a slow level of crime. 680 00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:56,120 Speaker 2: He says that police need to embrace technology. 681 00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:59,040 Speaker 10: And I speak quite confidently that we're in a good 682 00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:01,640 Speaker 10: place in terms of the way forward with technology that's 683 00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:07,760 Speaker 10: available to us to address crime types what moral I'm 684 00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:11,280 Speaker 10: seeing around the world, as well as that law enforcement 685 00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:12,960 Speaker 10: needs to embrace technology. 686 00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:16,120 Speaker 2: Now I'm not entirely sure what technology he's talking about 687 00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:17,959 Speaker 2: because he hasn't made it clear obviously as you can 688 00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:20,479 Speaker 2: tell from that, but if it is this facial recognition stuff, 689 00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:23,240 Speaker 2: they need to get on with it. This is the 690 00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:25,680 Speaker 2: point that I was trying to make yesterday. If you 691 00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:28,480 Speaker 2: cannot send a police officer to deal with the shoplifting 692 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:30,400 Speaker 2: at the store, and I don't think you can, like 693 00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:32,320 Speaker 2: I don't think that there are enough cops. If you 694 00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:34,920 Speaker 2: cannot go and deal with that. If somebody's just turned 695 00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:37,160 Speaker 2: up and one hundred dollars worth of red meats or 696 00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:39,520 Speaker 2: something like that. You need to give the supermarkets the 697 00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:42,160 Speaker 2: ability to put the facial recognition technology up and see 698 00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:44,680 Speaker 2: you all make coming back for some more meat and go, no, 699 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:47,040 Speaker 2: we recognize your face. You're not allowed in here. Off 700 00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:49,640 Speaker 2: you go and prevent the crime from happening again. You 701 00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:52,400 Speaker 2: have to let the retailers take some respect, just have 702 00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:54,400 Speaker 2: a little bit of some way to deal with the crime. 703 00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:56,200 Speaker 2: Otherwise it's just a free for all. But listen to 704 00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:58,960 Speaker 2: this case speaking of police not investigating things. You know 705 00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:01,320 Speaker 2: this case it's been get the headlines. This one about 706 00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:04,240 Speaker 2: the banking fraud right where the chap sent one hundred 707 00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:07,000 Speaker 2: and fifty eight thousand dollars from his bank Barclay's Bank 708 00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:09,720 Speaker 2: account in the UK to his Westpac bank account. Was 709 00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:12,440 Speaker 2: meant for his retirement Westpac bank account in Auckland, but 710 00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:15,440 Speaker 2: he got a digit wrong because his keyboard is number 711 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:17,680 Speaker 2: four was sticky, so he got the digit wrong and 712 00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:20,000 Speaker 2: accidentally transferred it to the wrong west Pack account and 713 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:22,440 Speaker 2: it ended up in the hands of some beneficiary and 714 00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:25,360 Speaker 2: she allegedly went and had a free for I had 715 00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:28,480 Speaker 2: a great time with one hundred and fifty eight thousand dollars, 716 00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:31,440 Speaker 2: bought a staff a car, sent some money to her boyfriend, 717 00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:33,840 Speaker 2: allegedly all kinds of stuff. Anyway, she has just been 718 00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:36,640 Speaker 2: charged by the police. She's been charged with theft. She 719 00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:39,360 Speaker 2: faces up to seven years in jail of convicted. Also, 720 00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:42,920 Speaker 2: the one that she sent the money to allegedly sixty 721 00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:47,440 Speaker 2: four thousand dollars, has also been charged with receiving. Police 722 00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:50,040 Speaker 2: only just charged him as well. Here's the thing, this 723 00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:55,400 Speaker 2: happened in January last year, and the cops have just 724 00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:59,680 Speaker 2: charged him. Charged them after they were told about this 725 00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:02,600 Speaker 2: last year. They told old mate who sent the money 726 00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:04,760 Speaker 2: in the first place, his money. They told him they 727 00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:06,960 Speaker 2: were not going to investigate because there was a civil matter, 728 00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:09,200 Speaker 2: but then of course got heaps and heaps of publicity, 729 00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:12,720 Speaker 2: so they investigated now and they've charged. So you think 730 00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:15,000 Speaker 2: five hundred dollars, how about one hundred and fifty eight 731 00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:19,080 Speaker 2: thousand dollars? And they're not investigating news talks they'd be mature. 732 00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:39,000 Speaker 1: Next questions, answers, facts analysis, the drive show you trust 733 00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:43,120 Speaker 1: for the full picture. Heather Duplessy on Drive with One 734 00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:45,840 Speaker 1: New Zealand let's get connected news talks. 735 00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:48,320 Speaker 8: That'd be good afternoon. 736 00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:51,000 Speaker 2: Police and the government are in damage control today over 737 00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:54,240 Speaker 2: the revelation that police will not investigate shoplifting incidents under 738 00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:56,640 Speaker 2: five hundred dollars. Now we've learned about this because of 739 00:33:56,680 --> 00:33:59,320 Speaker 2: a memo which was sent to police staff telling them 740 00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:02,400 Speaker 2: to file shop lifting incidents under five hundred dollars, gas 741 00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:04,600 Speaker 2: theft of less than one hundred and fifty dollars in 742 00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:07,600 Speaker 2: online scams of less than one thousand dollars. Mark Mitchell 743 00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:10,719 Speaker 2: is the policeman Aster High Mitch Hi Heather is the 744 00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:11,359 Speaker 2: memo right? 745 00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:15,920 Speaker 19: Well, it could have been more helpful, that could have 746 00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:18,960 Speaker 19: been clearer. Obviously, it was a memo and the police 747 00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:22,640 Speaker 19: have lots of these memos circulating around. It was released 748 00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:26,200 Speaker 19: under OIA, and it could have been much clearer. The 749 00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:29,840 Speaker 19: way that was written it did create some confusion. Totally 750 00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:32,440 Speaker 19: understand that and get that, and that's why both myself 751 00:34:32,840 --> 00:34:36,120 Speaker 19: and the Commissioner have been out today you clarifying it. 752 00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:38,440 Speaker 2: Is it right though, Mitch? If there is a shoplifting 753 00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:40,840 Speaker 2: incident of less than five hundred dollars the police, it 754 00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:43,080 Speaker 2: will get filed. It will just get filed. The police 755 00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:44,400 Speaker 2: will not necessarily investigate. 756 00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:46,920 Speaker 19: Oh no, it's not right. There shouldn't be thresholds. I 757 00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:49,839 Speaker 19: think the Commissioner has been very clear on. 758 00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:51,719 Speaker 20: That it be take on. 759 00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:54,320 Speaker 2: But are there thresholds. 760 00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:55,360 Speaker 8: No, there's not. 761 00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:59,239 Speaker 2: So there's no thresholds, okay, because we had we had 762 00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:02,200 Speaker 2: a police officer yesterday who confirmed that the memo was correct. 763 00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:03,400 Speaker 2: So what's happened overnight. 764 00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:07,759 Speaker 19: Look, the reality of it is police have always triaged, 765 00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:10,440 Speaker 19: They've always had to prioritize. When I was in the 766 00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:12,880 Speaker 19: job thirty years ago, it was no different and it 767 00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:15,000 Speaker 19: still happens today. But the reality of it is that 768 00:35:15,400 --> 00:35:18,080 Speaker 19: every crime and every incident has taken on its own merits, 769 00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:21,520 Speaker 19: and whether the police will respond, they will respond, whether 770 00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:23,080 Speaker 19: it be immediately or whether it be with. 771 00:35:23,239 --> 00:35:23,920 Speaker 2: Some follow up. 772 00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:27,280 Speaker 19: So you know, they do have tools to try and 773 00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:29,839 Speaker 19: to be able to allocate, to be able to prioritize. 774 00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:30,680 Speaker 8: That is important. 775 00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:33,920 Speaker 19: If you've got an offender for multiple offenses, obviously they're 776 00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:37,040 Speaker 19: going to go after that. They'll prioritize that. But no, 777 00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:39,960 Speaker 19: there's no thresholds. And I think the commissioners come out 778 00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:42,160 Speaker 19: today and he's been very clear and he said that 779 00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:45,200 Speaker 19: a priority for him and for this Scumnor's retail crime. 780 00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:47,720 Speaker 19: They've done some great work around the violent retail crime, 781 00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:51,200 Speaker 19: working across all the stakeholders. They can't do it by themselves. 782 00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:54,480 Speaker 19: I'm really proud of the work they're doing. And so 783 00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:57,520 Speaker 19: in the simple answer is no. Any if there's a 784 00:35:57,880 --> 00:36:01,160 Speaker 19: shoplifter or if retail has got someone there they need 785 00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:04,399 Speaker 19: police support, then you know the police will get there. 786 00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:08,280 Speaker 2: Okay. Are you telling me that if a retailer calls 787 00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:13,080 Speaker 2: in a shoplifting incident the police will always come and investigate. 788 00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:16,279 Speaker 19: They won't always get there to that shoplifting incident. And 789 00:36:16,360 --> 00:36:17,880 Speaker 19: I think back when I was in the job. 790 00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:21,319 Speaker 2: And the women which ones they're going to and which 791 00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:21,959 Speaker 2: ones they don't. 792 00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:24,720 Speaker 19: They have to prioritize. So when I was a police 793 00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:26,960 Speaker 19: dog handler, if I was tracking three offenders from an 794 00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:29,560 Speaker 19: aggravated robbery and at the same time I got a 795 00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:32,160 Speaker 19: call for a shoplifter, then I have to carry on. 796 00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:35,160 Speaker 19: I'm going to prioritize and go for the three egg robbers, right. Yes, 797 00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:37,440 Speaker 19: if I'm not doing that job and the call comes 798 00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:39,920 Speaker 19: in for the shoplifter, I'll go to the shoplifter, I'll 799 00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:42,280 Speaker 19: go and attend it. And it's no different today. Police 800 00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:45,800 Speaker 19: have there are limited numbers. We don't have a you 801 00:36:45,840 --> 00:36:49,480 Speaker 19: know that there's we've got limited resources. They have to prioritize. 802 00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:55,040 Speaker 19: They'll always prioritize human life, public safety. But if they're 803 00:36:55,080 --> 00:36:56,840 Speaker 19: free and they can get to a shoplifter, they'll go 804 00:36:56,880 --> 00:36:57,080 Speaker 19: to it. 805 00:36:57,280 --> 00:37:00,000 Speaker 2: If there is a shoplifting of the value of fifty bucks, 806 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:01,920 Speaker 2: the police and they've got free time, they'll go to it. 807 00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:03,600 Speaker 8: Yes, they will. 808 00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:06,719 Speaker 2: Okay. It just then explains to me why did the 809 00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:08,160 Speaker 2: memo say five hundred dollars. 810 00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:11,279 Speaker 19: I think it was a tool that they were that 811 00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:13,360 Speaker 19: they're trying to use it. This is operational, so I 812 00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:15,880 Speaker 19: shouldn't really be speaking to It's more for the commissioner. However, 813 00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:19,200 Speaker 19: I think that they are probably triaging the information that 814 00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:21,839 Speaker 19: they do have to try and prioritize as they work 815 00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:24,799 Speaker 19: through historic offenses and trying to clear them. 816 00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:28,400 Speaker 2: But what do you No one's calling in historic offenses. 817 00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:30,600 Speaker 2: They're calling in offenses that have just happened. 818 00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:35,000 Speaker 19: No, they'll attend to those, and the Commission has been 819 00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:37,280 Speaker 19: very clear about that as well. And as the incoming 820 00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:40,759 Speaker 19: government's got a heavy focus on bubbet safety, our expectation 821 00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:43,400 Speaker 19: is that police will treat all crime equally and they 822 00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:44,719 Speaker 19: will in that. 823 00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:47,920 Speaker 2: So are you saying that the only that that memo 824 00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:50,840 Speaker 2: is referring to stuff that happened donkeys years ago, not 825 00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:52,840 Speaker 2: stuff that's happening right now, So you file away your 826 00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:54,680 Speaker 2: five hundred dollars shoplifting things and just put them in 827 00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:55,319 Speaker 2: the in the file. 828 00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:58,760 Speaker 19: I'm not saying that I can't talk to the memo. 829 00:37:58,840 --> 00:38:01,200 Speaker 19: It is operational and that is that is more for 830 00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:03,799 Speaker 19: the commissioner to speak to. From my side of it 831 00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:06,640 Speaker 19: as the police butter, I just wanted to give complete 832 00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:09,839 Speaker 19: assurance and sort reassurance from the Commissioner that police will 833 00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:11,959 Speaker 19: attend will attend these jobs, and they will. 834 00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:14,600 Speaker 2: I'm confused because Blair McDonald, the police officer, was on 835 00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:17,040 Speaker 2: the show yesterday going, yeah, the memo's right, and then 836 00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:18,640 Speaker 2: you're telling me today the memo's wrong. 837 00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:20,960 Speaker 19: Well, I'm saying that it could have been worded, It 838 00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:23,040 Speaker 19: could have been worded better, it could have been clearer, 839 00:38:23,040 --> 00:38:25,040 Speaker 19: and that's that and that's for. 840 00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:27,920 Speaker 2: That's wording then, because all we've got is the wrong wording. 841 00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:28,840 Speaker 2: So what's the right wording? 842 00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:31,839 Speaker 19: Well, I think that I think that what they were 843 00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:34,160 Speaker 19: trying to do is they are trying to use a 844 00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:36,560 Speaker 19: tool to be able to triarche historic cases that are 845 00:38:36,600 --> 00:38:38,880 Speaker 19: now it files to try and work through those, and 846 00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:41,040 Speaker 19: they're going to they want to prioritize where they've got 847 00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:44,200 Speaker 19: some hard evidence. And that's nothing's changed that was. It 848 00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:45,960 Speaker 19: was like this back in my day. Like I said, 849 00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:49,239 Speaker 19: it always happened. But I think where the confusion was 850 00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:52,080 Speaker 19: created is that does this mean now the police officer 851 00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:54,960 Speaker 19: is not going to attend a shoplifting incident And that's 852 00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:57,640 Speaker 19: not the case. The commissioners come out, He's been very 853 00:38:57,640 --> 00:38:59,920 Speaker 19: clear that they will. I've come out as the Police 854 00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:02,239 Speaker 19: Minister and said the expectation from this government and it 855 00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:04,880 Speaker 19: has contained in my leader of expectation to the commissioner 856 00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:08,279 Speaker 19: is that they will attend these incidents and look and 857 00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:11,200 Speaker 19: they do every single day. Police do tens of thousands 858 00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:15,319 Speaker 19: of positive interactions and responses to the public every day 859 00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:17,040 Speaker 19: and they're going to continue to do that. 860 00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:18,439 Speaker 4: Mitch. 861 00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:22,080 Speaker 2: Thank you very much, Mark Mitchell.

Now, hey, Ross, 868 00:39:42,920 --> 00:39:44,120 Speaker 2: you know exactly what happened. 869 00:39:46,520 --> 00:39:49,840 Speaker 13: Yes, a group of mates have got together and they've 870 00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:52,799 Speaker 13: decided that they all participate in this tackle game. It 871 00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:56,680 Speaker 13: wasn't an organized event, it was something just the social 872 00:39:56,719 --> 00:40:00,120 Speaker 13: between the mates and tragically this young man has but 873 00:40:00,360 --> 00:40:02,839 Speaker 13: a horrible injury which has taken his life. 874 00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:04,080 Speaker 2: Banged us head into what. 875 00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:09,080 Speaker 13: So he hasn't banged his head as I understand it. 876 00:40:09,080 --> 00:40:12,600 Speaker 13: He hasn't banged his head into anything as his friend 877 00:40:12,640 --> 00:40:16,000 Speaker 13: has tackled him. It's the action of his his head 878 00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:19,000 Speaker 13: has caused the injury. So he hasn't banged his hidden. 879 00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:22,240 Speaker 2: It's just that that just that snapping. 880 00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:23,520 Speaker 13: That when you think about it, is that when you 881 00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:27,439 Speaker 13: think about it is the terrible risk young people take 882 00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:30,280 Speaker 13: when they participate in these types of games. 883 00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:32,879 Speaker 2: Rossill, you're saying it's just the whiplash action of being 884 00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:33,839 Speaker 2: tackled has caused it. 885 00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:37,880 Speaker 13: I'm not a doctor, Heather, so I can't comment on that. 886 00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:39,760 Speaker 13: Why I can say is that his head hasn't collided 887 00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:42,920 Speaker 13: anything with anything solid. It's the movement of his head. 888 00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:45,920 Speaker 2: Any charges here, I mean, I'm loath to raise that 889 00:40:45,960 --> 00:40:48,759 Speaker 2: because it is made absolutely not. 890 00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:53,879 Speaker 13: This is devastating, Trevor. Tragedy for the family of young 891 00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:57,680 Speaker 13: Ryan and for his colleagues and his mates. We are 892 00:40:57,719 --> 00:41:01,200 Speaker 13: only involved because we're investigating on behalf coroner. There's no 893 00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:03,080 Speaker 13: criminal element to this at all. 894 00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:05,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, listen, what do we do to discourage I mean, 895 00:41:05,120 --> 00:41:07,960 Speaker 2: like Ross, we've been talking about this for weeks now 896 00:41:08,040 --> 00:41:10,320 Speaker 2: and how stupid this thing is and how nobody should 897 00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:12,160 Speaker 2: be doing it and get it's claim to life. So 898 00:41:12,200 --> 00:41:14,000 Speaker 2: what do we do to discourage kids from doing this? 899 00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:16,120 Speaker 10: Oh? 900 00:41:16,239 --> 00:41:18,040 Speaker 13: Head? If I had that answer, I'd be able to 901 00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:20,160 Speaker 13: save a whole of young men's lives, not only in 902 00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:23,200 Speaker 13: this type of thing, but in driving cars. And that sadly, 903 00:41:23,239 --> 00:41:26,960 Speaker 13: our young men don't tend to make good decisions. We 904 00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:31,120 Speaker 13: can keep talking about it, trying to educate them, use 905 00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:34,719 Speaker 13: this tragic event of young Ryan's as an example to 906 00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:36,799 Speaker 13: young men to it. Should think about what you look 907 00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:41,560 Speaker 13: at on social media. There's a whole lot of dangerous 908 00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:45,239 Speaker 13: things that people purport to be genuine and to be 909 00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:48,640 Speaker 13: fun and they're not, and you just have to be 910 00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:51,200 Speaker 13: very careful when you're making your choices about what you're 911 00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:51,480 Speaker 13: going to do. 912 00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:53,799 Speaker 2: Totally, Ross, thank you as always appreciate your time. That's 913 00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:56,839 Speaker 2: Inspector Ross Grandam, one of the two Area commander Heather 914 00:41:57,000 --> 00:41:59,920 Speaker 2: dupery Ellen. First major bank has moved ahead of some 915 00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:02,040 Speaker 2: LA Tomorrow's big day obviously because you've got the official 916 00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:04,319 Speaker 2: cash rate and I mean, you know you can you 917 00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:06,680 Speaker 2: can absolutely lock in twenty five basis points, but it 918 00:42:06,719 --> 00:42:09,080 Speaker 2: should be more. It should be fifty. B and Z 919 00:42:09,239 --> 00:42:11,600 Speaker 2: has moved. Short term rates have come back just a 920 00:42:11,600 --> 00:42:15,080 Speaker 2: little bit, you know, very it's twenty fourteen basis points. 921 00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:18,000 Speaker 2: Four basis points. Nothing major. The largest one was the 922 00:42:18,040 --> 00:42:20,440 Speaker 2: four year term, which has come back thirty basis points. 923 00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:22,760 Speaker 2: Now has the lowest TwixT rate amongst the major banks. 924 00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:25,520 Speaker 2: Obviously done it for the publicity of it. But you 925 00:42:25,560 --> 00:42:27,560 Speaker 2: can imagine they're all going to move, aren't they. Sixteen 926 00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:29,640 Speaker 2: past five Now you might have heard me speak about 927 00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:32,600 Speaker 2: this before, but one New Zealand satellite is officially here 928 00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:34,520 Speaker 2: and this is a game changer. I mean, this world 929 00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:38,520 Speaker 2: first tech provides satellite powered mobile coverage in places that 930 00:42:38,560 --> 00:42:41,320 Speaker 2: traditional cell tailers don't reach, which is actually around forty 931 00:42:41,360 --> 00:42:44,759 Speaker 2: percent of New Zealand's land mass. With an eligible phone 932 00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:47,880 Speaker 2: and plan one New Zealand customers can now text anywhere 933 00:42:47,960 --> 00:42:49,440 Speaker 2: that they have line of sight to the sky. You 934 00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:51,160 Speaker 2: just need to allow a few minutes for the message 935 00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:53,440 Speaker 2: to be delivered. The One New Zealand team are pitching 936 00:42:53,440 --> 00:42:55,880 Speaker 2: it as peace of mind in your pocket, which I 937 00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:58,920 Speaker 2: quite like. It's an additional layer of communication when in 938 00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:01,239 Speaker 2: the most remote parts of New Zealand, but also when 939 00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:04,040 Speaker 2: dare we say it, and natural disaster strikes and the 940 00:43:04,080 --> 00:43:06,840 Speaker 2: sal towers go down temporarily, you can literally text in 941 00:43:06,840 --> 00:43:09,200 Speaker 2: the middle of nowhere. Now to learn more about how 942 00:43:09,239 --> 00:43:11,800 Speaker 2: One New Zealand satellite can help you to stay safer, 943 00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:14,880 Speaker 2: better connected, and more productive, visit one dot in z 944 00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:19,080 Speaker 2: forward slash satellite ever duples Allen whether run It Straight 945 00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:21,680 Speaker 2: is the most disgusting and disgraceful idea ever. Burgess and 946 00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:23,520 Speaker 2: Coe should hang their heads and show me. That's Burgess 947 00:43:23,560 --> 00:43:25,319 Speaker 2: from the Rabbito's And they've put out a statement by 948 00:43:25,360 --> 00:43:28,160 Speaker 2: the way, the Run It Championship League they say it's 949 00:43:28,239 --> 00:43:31,680 Speaker 2: tragic news and any contact sport like boxing, martial arts 950 00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:34,040 Speaker 2: or combat style activity should only be held in highly 951 00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:37,400 Speaker 2: controlled environments which include professional medical supervision and support like 952 00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:40,480 Speaker 2: that would have native difference twenty past five. Now, for 953 00:43:40,640 --> 00:43:43,560 Speaker 2: the first time in twenty five years, Air New Zealand 954 00:43:43,640 --> 00:43:45,880 Speaker 2: is bringing back the jets to Hamilton. The Airbus A 955 00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:47,800 Speaker 2: three twenty jets are going to be introduced to the 956 00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:51,400 Speaker 2: Airlines Hamilton christ Church route starting in September. Cato O'Brien 957 00:43:51,840 --> 00:43:54,480 Speaker 2: is Air New Zealand's General manager of Domestic and with us, Hey, k. 958 00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:56,560 Speaker 21: Hi, Heather, what's brought the song? 959 00:43:56,600 --> 00:43:57,440 Speaker 2: Why are you guys doing this? 960 00:43:58,560 --> 00:44:02,360 Speaker 21: Yes, So we're very excited to be reintroducing these domestic 961 00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:06,120 Speaker 21: jet services between Hamilton and christ Church. So a couple 962 00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:09,759 Speaker 21: of things. This route Hamilton christ Church is one of 963 00:44:09,840 --> 00:44:14,520 Speaker 21: our largest and fastest growing regional routes, so we are 964 00:44:14,640 --> 00:44:17,080 Speaker 21: keen to grow it and put some more seats into 965 00:44:17,160 --> 00:44:20,279 Speaker 21: that market. But the other thing that's happening is we 966 00:44:20,480 --> 00:44:25,120 Speaker 21: have had a number of our aircraft out with availability 967 00:44:25,239 --> 00:44:28,160 Speaker 21: issues and we are really excited that we're starting to 968 00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:31,240 Speaker 21: see some of those aircraft come back into the fleet, 969 00:44:31,360 --> 00:44:33,440 Speaker 21: which means that we can look to grow some of 970 00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:34,560 Speaker 21: our domestic groups. 971 00:44:35,120 --> 00:44:39,920 Speaker 2: Now am I maybe I could potentially case, I can 972 00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:43,480 Speaker 2: be over reading too much into this, but I think 973 00:44:43,520 --> 00:44:45,560 Speaker 2: it's interesting that you're going to Hamilton instead of Auckland 974 00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:47,440 Speaker 2: when you're having this massive fight with Auckland Airport. Is 975 00:44:47,560 --> 00:44:48,160 Speaker 2: anything in there? 976 00:44:49,440 --> 00:44:52,879 Speaker 21: No, This actually has been in our plan for quite 977 00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:55,680 Speaker 21: a while now to grow this throat and to ultimately 978 00:44:55,840 --> 00:44:58,840 Speaker 21: have a jet service in there. As I said, we 979 00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:02,720 Speaker 21: have seen really strong growth, so it's in response to demand, 980 00:45:03,480 --> 00:45:06,680 Speaker 21: but it is also enabled by these jets coming back 981 00:45:06,760 --> 00:45:07,480 Speaker 21: into the fleet. 982 00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:10,000 Speaker 2: Fantastic stuff. Hey listen, Kate, best of luck with it 983 00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:12,080 Speaker 2: and thank you very much. Appreciate its cada Brian in 984 00:45:12,160 --> 00:45:15,080 Speaker 2: New Zealand's general manager of Domestic Heather. A year ago, 985 00:45:15,160 --> 00:45:17,920 Speaker 2: my car was broken into an item was removed. Police 986 00:45:17,960 --> 00:45:20,160 Speaker 2: report noted that the item was less than five hundred 987 00:45:20,160 --> 00:45:23,960 Speaker 2: dollars in value. No active follow up from Margaret Bs. Heather. 988 00:45:24,600 --> 00:45:27,200 Speaker 2: This is apropos Mark Mitchell before because I was on 989 00:45:27,239 --> 00:45:29,920 Speaker 2: Facebook market scam and they told me that because it 990 00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:32,120 Speaker 2: was less than five hundred dollars they couldn't do anything 991 00:45:32,160 --> 00:45:33,600 Speaker 2: about it. Five twenty one. 992 00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:40,240 Speaker 1: Informed Inside into Today's Issues. It's Heather duplicy Ellen drive 993 00:45:40,600 --> 00:45:44,440 Speaker 1: with one New Zealand. Let's get connected news talks that'd be. 994 00:45:46,400 --> 00:45:47,279 Speaker 2: Five twenty four. 995 00:45:47,480 --> 00:45:47,640 Speaker 9: Now. 996 00:45:48,640 --> 00:45:51,440 Speaker 2: I think Winston Peter's ruling out ever going into coalition 997 00:45:51,600 --> 00:45:54,200 Speaker 2: with Chippy after the next election is actually more significant 998 00:45:54,200 --> 00:45:58,040 Speaker 2: than many people will realize, because Winnie was actually Chippy's 999 00:45:58,040 --> 00:46:01,040 Speaker 2: only credible path back to being prime ministery right without winning, 1000 00:46:01,200 --> 00:46:04,000 Speaker 2: Chippy is completely stuffed because the alternatives are not real options. 1001 00:46:04,040 --> 00:46:07,320 Speaker 2: I mean, the alternatives are one being a coalition with 1002 00:46:07,400 --> 00:46:10,440 Speaker 2: a couple of looney parties, which you Center voters are 1003 00:46:10,440 --> 00:46:12,320 Speaker 2: absolutely not going to go for, so you can absolutely 1004 00:46:12,320 --> 00:46:15,040 Speaker 2: forget about that. The other alternative is that Labor is 1005 00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:18,759 Speaker 2: returned as a majority government again, which is I think, 1006 00:46:18,840 --> 00:46:20,920 Speaker 2: after what happened last time, not going to happen for 1007 00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:23,840 Speaker 2: a very long time again. So basically there is no 1008 00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:26,040 Speaker 2: way back for Chippy. He will not be Prime minister 1009 00:46:26,120 --> 00:46:28,440 Speaker 2: after twenty twenty six if ever. Now, a lot of 1010 00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:30,279 Speaker 2: people would say to me at this juncture, well, of course, 1011 00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:32,640 Speaker 2: not National were always going to win the next election anyways, 1012 00:46:32,719 --> 00:46:35,120 Speaker 2: this is just a completely spurious argument. But I would 1013 00:46:35,160 --> 00:46:37,960 Speaker 2: say to you Labour's chances are actually a little bit 1014 00:46:38,000 --> 00:46:40,640 Speaker 2: better than you might think, because what we have right 1015 00:46:40,680 --> 00:46:43,520 Speaker 2: now is hardly a wildly popular government. I mean, these 1016 00:46:43,520 --> 00:46:45,520 Speaker 2: guys were elected, remember telling us they were going to 1017 00:46:45,560 --> 00:46:47,840 Speaker 2: turn this economy. Around eighteen months later, they have not 1018 00:46:47,960 --> 00:46:51,319 Speaker 2: turned this economy. Around eighteen months later, we are still 1019 00:46:51,360 --> 00:46:53,960 Speaker 2: in the economic doldrums. We are yet to see a 1020 00:46:54,120 --> 00:46:57,719 Speaker 2: vision economically from the coalition government. The right track wrong 1021 00:46:57,800 --> 00:47:00,920 Speaker 2: track indicator that comes out in multiple poles now is 1022 00:47:01,040 --> 00:47:05,160 Speaker 2: heavily negative for this government. Thousands of people voting with 1023 00:47:05,160 --> 00:47:07,600 Speaker 2: their feet and leaving the country altogether. People vote with 1024 00:47:07,640 --> 00:47:09,920 Speaker 2: their hip pocket right forget about everything else. If you 1025 00:47:10,080 --> 00:47:12,560 Speaker 2: just look at the economy, that is your greatest determiner 1026 00:47:12,640 --> 00:47:14,759 Speaker 2: of what happens at the election. People vote with their 1027 00:47:14,840 --> 00:47:17,840 Speaker 2: hip pocket, and right now the hippocket is suffering. It 1028 00:47:17,960 --> 00:47:22,120 Speaker 2: is not looking good for the economy. But also there 1029 00:47:22,160 --> 00:47:25,480 Speaker 2: should be a target right now on Chippy's back in labor, 1030 00:47:25,880 --> 00:47:30,320 Speaker 2: because Winnie's problem is not with labor. Winnie's problem is 1031 00:47:30,440 --> 00:47:34,680 Speaker 2: with Chris Hopkins, which means different leader, and Winston Peters 1032 00:47:34,800 --> 00:47:36,720 Speaker 2: is back in the game as a possibility for labor. 1033 00:47:37,040 --> 00:47:41,000 Speaker 2: Now that requires right That requires labor to roll Chris 1034 00:47:41,080 --> 00:47:43,800 Speaker 2: Hipkins and then their chances are good again. However, that 1035 00:47:44,040 --> 00:47:48,160 Speaker 2: requires labor actually realizing that they need Winston Peters to 1036 00:47:48,239 --> 00:47:51,720 Speaker 2: form coalition government after twenty twenty six, and that requires 1037 00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:55,120 Speaker 2: them also realizing there is no way they can coalesce 1038 00:47:55,200 --> 00:47:57,920 Speaker 2: with the Maori Party because most voters are allergic to 1039 00:47:58,000 --> 00:48:00,440 Speaker 2: the shenanigans that that party get up to. But I 1040 00:48:00,480 --> 00:48:02,640 Speaker 2: don't think Labor is smart enough to realize that yet. 1041 00:48:02,680 --> 00:48:07,080 Speaker 2: Do you ever do for c Ellen's Stewart Nash is 1042 00:48:07,120 --> 00:48:08,840 Speaker 2: going to be with us very shortly and talk us 1043 00:48:08,880 --> 00:48:10,480 Speaker 2: through it. I think he's much of the same view 1044 00:48:10,520 --> 00:48:12,040 Speaker 2: as I am. Anyway, we'll stand by to hear what 1045 00:48:12,080 --> 00:48:13,000 Speaker 2: he's got to say about it. 1046 00:48:13,400 --> 00:48:13,520 Speaker 4: Now. 1047 00:48:14,120 --> 00:48:16,400 Speaker 2: Artificial intelligence. We're going to talk about AI later in 1048 00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:20,200 Speaker 2: the program. This morning I hosted an event about AI. 1049 00:48:20,400 --> 00:48:24,279 Speaker 2: On the panel was Jason Parris, who's the CEO of 1050 00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:27,520 Speaker 2: One New Zealand. Because because One New Zealand has commissioned 1051 00:48:27,520 --> 00:48:31,360 Speaker 2: this report about artificial intelligence, they've had a look at. 1052 00:48:31,560 --> 00:48:33,880 Speaker 2: What they found is actually fascinating. The vast majority of 1053 00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:36,520 Speaker 2: us use artificial intelligence every single day. We don't even 1054 00:48:36,560 --> 00:48:39,120 Speaker 2: know that we're using it, right, but three quarters of 1055 00:48:39,200 --> 00:48:41,719 Speaker 2: us do it every single day and know that we 1056 00:48:41,840 --> 00:48:43,960 Speaker 2: are doing it. We know we're doing it, but we're 1057 00:48:44,000 --> 00:48:45,920 Speaker 2: still really worried about it. We're worried it's going to 1058 00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:47,640 Speaker 2: take jobs. We're worried that the data is going to 1059 00:48:47,680 --> 00:48:50,600 Speaker 2: be misused, We're worried about data privacy. We're worried that 1060 00:48:50,680 --> 00:48:53,879 Speaker 2: AI is going to make unfair decisions. So there seems 1061 00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:55,279 Speaker 2: to be a little bit of a disconnect, like we 1062 00:48:55,360 --> 00:48:57,000 Speaker 2: kind of love it enough to use it, but we're 1063 00:48:57,040 --> 00:48:59,200 Speaker 2: also really freaked out about the implications of it. We're 1064 00:48:59,200 --> 00:49:01,000 Speaker 2: going to talk to Jason Harris about that after six. 1065 00:49:01,239 --> 00:49:03,840 Speaker 2: But the thing that I really love about this is 1066 00:49:03,880 --> 00:49:07,040 Speaker 2: that here's of the view that New Zealand actually stands 1067 00:49:07,080 --> 00:49:09,360 Speaker 2: to benefit more than any other country, or more than 1068 00:49:09,440 --> 00:49:12,560 Speaker 2: most countries if we get onto the AI quickly because 1069 00:49:12,600 --> 00:49:14,279 Speaker 2: the size of our business. Because you got all these 1070 00:49:14,520 --> 00:49:17,279 Speaker 2: guys out there peddling AI solutions for things that they'll 1071 00:49:17,320 --> 00:49:18,759 Speaker 2: come to you. They'll be like, if you put this 1072 00:49:18,840 --> 00:49:21,000 Speaker 2: AI solution into your business, blah blah blah will happen. 1073 00:49:21,320 --> 00:49:23,040 Speaker 2: But they don't have a lot of businesses to try 1074 00:49:23,080 --> 00:49:25,720 Speaker 2: it on. But New Zealand businesses are small enough, nimble 1075 00:49:25,840 --> 00:49:27,920 Speaker 2: enough to actually try it on. We are the perfect 1076 00:49:28,000 --> 00:49:30,799 Speaker 2: test case. This could be great for New Zealand if 1077 00:49:30,840 --> 00:49:33,160 Speaker 2: we just do it. Jason's with us after six. 1078 00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:38,400 Speaker 1: On the iHeart app and in your car on your 1079 00:49:38,480 --> 00:49:42,319 Speaker 1: drive home, it's hither duplicy Ellen drive with one New 1080 00:49:42,400 --> 00:49:46,279 Speaker 1: Zealand let's get connected news talks they'd be you an't 1081 00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:58,240 Speaker 1: desire more siding. 1082 00:49:53,080 --> 00:49:55,320 Speaker 2: By Jason Parris and I said with us on AI 1083 00:49:55,520 --> 00:49:59,319 Speaker 2: after six o'clock Brad Olson wants to have a fight 1084 00:49:59,440 --> 00:50:03,120 Speaker 2: with me, as indicated yesterday abouts to the super age. 1085 00:50:03,400 --> 00:50:05,839 Speaker 2: And on a Tuesday he is with us at quarter 1086 00:50:05,920 --> 00:50:08,319 Speaker 2: past six, so it appears that today is the day 1087 00:50:08,360 --> 00:50:10,200 Speaker 2: that we're going to have this fight. It's twenty four 1088 00:50:10,239 --> 00:50:13,200 Speaker 2: away from six now. Labor Party leader Chris Hopkins is 1089 00:50:13,280 --> 00:50:16,160 Speaker 2: trying very hard to pretend he doesn't care about Winston 1090 00:50:16,200 --> 00:50:18,640 Speaker 2: Peter's ruling out ever working with him against. Stuart Nash 1091 00:50:18,760 --> 00:50:20,399 Speaker 2: is a former Labor Party cabinet member. 1092 00:50:20,480 --> 00:50:22,239 Speaker 3: I think most people in the Labor Party look at 1093 00:50:22,280 --> 00:50:24,160 Speaker 3: Winston Peters. I think we'd rather not have to work 1094 00:50:24,200 --> 00:50:26,320 Speaker 3: with him anyway. Plenty of water to flow under the 1095 00:50:26,360 --> 00:50:28,719 Speaker 3: bridge before the next selection got My goal is to 1096 00:50:29,080 --> 00:50:30,960 Speaker 3: grow Labors vote as large as I can there. 1097 00:50:31,040 --> 00:50:32,719 Speaker 2: He is trying very hard to pretend he doesn't can. 1098 00:50:32,800 --> 00:50:35,239 Speaker 2: Stewart Nash is a former Labor Party cabinet minister and 1099 00:50:35,320 --> 00:50:38,000 Speaker 2: with us. Now, Hey Stu, hey, how are you? Sounds 1100 00:50:38,040 --> 00:50:39,239 Speaker 2: a bit flat though, doesn't. 1101 00:50:39,000 --> 00:50:42,480 Speaker 16: He Well, First of all, before I'm make any commentary 1102 00:50:42,520 --> 00:50:43,880 Speaker 16: in this, I do want to say I've got no 1103 00:50:44,040 --> 00:50:46,439 Speaker 16: insights on this whatsoever. I haven't spoken to Winston about 1104 00:50:46,440 --> 00:50:50,759 Speaker 16: this or Chris. But you know, Hapkins has got a 1105 00:50:51,360 --> 00:50:54,040 Speaker 16: well Labor. Actually, it's a very interesting dilemma here because 1106 00:50:54,040 --> 00:50:57,799 Speaker 16: of course Labour wants to grow their vote. It's not inconceivable, Heather, 1107 00:50:57,920 --> 00:51:00,680 Speaker 16: that Labor could get let's say thirty five thirty six 1108 00:51:00,719 --> 00:51:01,360 Speaker 16: at the next election. 1109 00:51:01,560 --> 00:51:01,759 Speaker 6: Yep. 1110 00:51:02,400 --> 00:51:04,759 Speaker 16: And you know I live in the regions and I 1111 00:51:04,800 --> 00:51:06,600 Speaker 16: spent a lot of time in the regions. The only 1112 00:51:06,719 --> 00:51:10,239 Speaker 16: party at the moment that's resonating really with you, good 1113 00:51:10,280 --> 00:51:13,120 Speaker 16: hard working men and women is New Zeale First. I mean, 1114 00:51:13,200 --> 00:51:15,160 Speaker 16: Chris luxem sort of alienated quite a few of them. 1115 00:51:15,440 --> 00:51:18,040 Speaker 16: Labour has as well. They've become a bit of a 1116 00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:21,160 Speaker 16: liberal party once again, a liberal, big city party once again. 1117 00:51:22,239 --> 00:51:24,760 Speaker 16: The thing is is, if you get Labor at thirty 1118 00:51:24,840 --> 00:51:27,759 Speaker 16: six in an I'll turn to reality and New Zealand 1119 00:51:27,800 --> 00:51:30,000 Speaker 16: first is on fifteen, then you can form a government. 1120 00:51:30,640 --> 00:51:33,239 Speaker 16: Imagine then if you had National on thirty three, New 1121 00:51:33,320 --> 00:51:36,680 Speaker 16: Zealand First on fifteen, and ACT on sort of five. 1122 00:51:36,719 --> 00:51:38,160 Speaker 16: I don't know what the numbers are, so you would 1123 00:51:38,719 --> 00:51:41,120 Speaker 16: so you'd have a choice between Labor and New Zealand 1124 00:51:41,200 --> 00:51:45,640 Speaker 16: First or New Zealand First, National and ACT. Now keep 1125 00:51:45,719 --> 00:51:48,200 Speaker 16: in mind Winston's only said he ruled out working with 1126 00:51:48,320 --> 00:51:50,879 Speaker 16: Chris Sipkins. I did not hear him say he's ruled 1127 00:51:50,920 --> 00:51:51,760 Speaker 16: out working with Labor. 1128 00:51:51,800 --> 00:51:54,439 Speaker 2: No, he hasn't. He's it's only Chris Sippins, which means 1129 00:51:54,480 --> 00:51:56,560 Speaker 2: to you that Chippy's got a target on his back, 1130 00:51:56,840 --> 00:51:57,839 Speaker 2: or should have at least. 1131 00:51:57,960 --> 00:51:58,120 Speaker 3: Right. 1132 00:51:58,920 --> 00:52:02,239 Speaker 16: Well, it's a really important conversation that that Labor has 1133 00:52:02,280 --> 00:52:04,520 Speaker 16: to have because you know, if you end up in 1134 00:52:04,600 --> 00:52:07,560 Speaker 16: a situation where Winston says, look, I'll work with Labor 1135 00:52:07,560 --> 00:52:08,880 Speaker 16: and I'd prefer to be in a you know, a 1136 00:52:08,920 --> 00:52:12,280 Speaker 16: two party coalition then a three party coalition, then Labor 1137 00:52:12,320 --> 00:52:15,400 Speaker 16: will have to make a very a very important decision 1138 00:52:15,440 --> 00:52:17,480 Speaker 16: around whether they say, because you know, I have no 1139 00:52:17,560 --> 00:52:19,359 Speaker 16: doubt that Hipkins will be the leader going into the election, 1140 00:52:20,000 --> 00:52:23,440 Speaker 16: that we will that Hippins will stand aside and will 1141 00:52:23,440 --> 00:52:27,480 Speaker 16: appoint someone that Winston can work with, or no, we're 1142 00:52:27,520 --> 00:52:28,600 Speaker 16: not going to go into power. And now, the thing 1143 00:52:28,640 --> 00:52:30,720 Speaker 16: we know about opposition is you don't have an ability 1144 00:52:30,760 --> 00:52:33,200 Speaker 16: to influence anything. It's a complete and utter waste of 1145 00:52:33,239 --> 00:52:35,920 Speaker 16: time from a political perspective. When you're in government, you 1146 00:52:36,000 --> 00:52:38,279 Speaker 16: get to change the world. Right, So you go into 1147 00:52:38,320 --> 00:52:40,439 Speaker 16: politics to be in government. So it is a really 1148 00:52:40,640 --> 00:52:44,120 Speaker 16: interesting dilimit Now. It may be that that situation doesn't arise, 1149 00:52:44,200 --> 00:52:49,000 Speaker 16: but I can see a situation where that where the 1150 00:52:49,120 --> 00:52:52,600 Speaker 16: labor cabinet, sorry, the labor caucus, has to make a 1151 00:52:52,880 --> 00:52:55,120 Speaker 16: very important decision around what they do in a post 1152 00:52:55,160 --> 00:52:55,960 Speaker 16: election environment. 1153 00:52:56,000 --> 00:52:57,480 Speaker 2: Problem is, I'll tell you what the problem with them 1154 00:52:57,560 --> 00:53:00,520 Speaker 2: is to you, is that they I think they need 1155 00:53:00,640 --> 00:53:04,040 Speaker 2: to realize how badly they need Winston, and in order 1156 00:53:04,080 --> 00:53:06,560 Speaker 2: for them to realize that, they need to realize that 1157 00:53:07,120 --> 00:53:10,040 Speaker 2: most people do not want to see the Marti Party 1158 00:53:10,080 --> 00:53:10,799 Speaker 2: and government right. 1159 00:53:11,040 --> 00:53:11,560 Speaker 21: I don't think that. 1160 00:53:11,880 --> 00:53:13,480 Speaker 2: I don't know that they've realized that yet. 1161 00:53:14,120 --> 00:53:15,640 Speaker 7: Oh, I don't know. I think they probably have. 1162 00:53:15,800 --> 00:53:17,239 Speaker 16: I mean, you know, I've been urging them, not that 1163 00:53:17,280 --> 00:53:19,520 Speaker 16: they listen to me, but I've been urging them to 1164 00:53:20,040 --> 00:53:22,520 Speaker 16: rule out working with to party Mary. I mean, I 1165 00:53:22,560 --> 00:53:25,600 Speaker 16: haven't spoken to one person that I know that says, 1166 00:53:25,719 --> 00:53:28,879 Speaker 16: I know would love to see to party Mary. How's 1167 00:53:28,880 --> 00:53:29,280 Speaker 16: the government? 1168 00:53:29,480 --> 00:53:29,960 Speaker 22: I don't know. 1169 00:53:30,200 --> 00:53:30,960 Speaker 16: I really don't know. 1170 00:53:31,680 --> 00:53:35,239 Speaker 2: Close to the election r Jay and Willie Jackson thinks 1171 00:53:35,280 --> 00:53:36,600 Speaker 2: that Marty Party totally fine. 1172 00:53:37,239 --> 00:53:39,879 Speaker 16: Oh my god, no no. I think if they don't 1173 00:53:39,920 --> 00:53:42,000 Speaker 16: rule out to party Mary, as they hidden the election, 1174 00:53:42,719 --> 00:53:45,600 Speaker 16: they haven't got a hope in hell of getting their 1175 00:53:45,600 --> 00:53:47,120 Speaker 16: hands on the leaves of power. 1176 00:53:47,160 --> 00:53:50,200 Speaker 2: Okay, listen, you were the police minister. What's your insight 1177 00:53:50,280 --> 00:53:52,799 Speaker 2: on whether the cops turn up to shoplifting under five 1178 00:53:52,880 --> 00:53:53,399 Speaker 2: hundred dollars? 1179 00:53:54,600 --> 00:53:56,480 Speaker 16: Well, I would go to you know, I've been on 1180 00:53:56,560 --> 00:53:58,600 Speaker 16: your show before talking about the systems arrest. I think 1181 00:53:58,640 --> 00:54:01,160 Speaker 16: that's really important. You know, the CoP's got limited resources. 1182 00:54:01,160 --> 00:54:03,680 Speaker 16: I would rather they chase after, you know, the p 1183 00:54:03,880 --> 00:54:06,480 Speaker 16: dealers and those who are causing the most mischief. 1184 00:54:07,360 --> 00:54:08,279 Speaker 2: Did that ring true for you? 1185 00:54:09,200 --> 00:54:12,080 Speaker 16: Well, I don't know. I mean it sounds a little 1186 00:54:12,120 --> 00:54:14,759 Speaker 16: strange because police deploy resources based on needs. So if 1187 00:54:14,800 --> 00:54:16,920 Speaker 16: there's nothing much going on, then of course they'll turn up. 1188 00:54:17,360 --> 00:54:20,160 Speaker 16: But if there's that, or they're chasing after someone who's 1189 00:54:20,840 --> 00:54:22,840 Speaker 16: committed a more serious crime, then they will go for 1190 00:54:22,960 --> 00:54:25,520 Speaker 16: the more serious crime. But it doesn't ring true that 1191 00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:28,800 Speaker 16: they just flatly refuse to turn up and keeping the 1192 00:54:28,880 --> 00:54:31,600 Speaker 16: mind retail crime, man, it's a killer if you've got 1193 00:54:31,640 --> 00:54:33,640 Speaker 16: to book some watar store on in the main street. 1194 00:54:33,760 --> 00:54:36,040 Speaker 2: Absolutely, Stuart, thank you so much, appreciate it. Stuart Nash, 1195 00:54:36,080 --> 00:54:37,160 Speaker 2: former Labor Party Minister. 1196 00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:41,520 Speaker 1: The huddle with New Zealand Southerby's International Realty find you're 1197 00:54:41,600 --> 00:54:42,279 Speaker 1: one of the kind. 1198 00:54:42,600 --> 00:54:42,839 Speaker 4: Okay. 1199 00:54:42,880 --> 00:54:44,880 Speaker 2: On the huddle with me, I've got Thomas Scringer of 1200 00:54:45,000 --> 00:54:47,560 Speaker 2: Maximum Institution and Allie Jones of red PR. Hello you too, 1201 00:54:48,520 --> 00:54:52,440 Speaker 2: Hi the Thomas. I'm so confused. Do the police or 1202 00:54:52,480 --> 00:54:56,320 Speaker 2: do the police not investigate shoplifts under five hundred dollars? 1203 00:54:57,680 --> 00:54:59,600 Speaker 22: Well here, I think one of the reasons people are 1204 00:54:59,640 --> 00:55:01,960 Speaker 22: getting a bit upset about this is that they heard 1205 00:55:02,000 --> 00:55:05,640 Speaker 22: about this leaked memo and it was believable. There's kind 1206 00:55:05,640 --> 00:55:09,520 Speaker 22: of an ongoing problem of retail crime not being addressed, 1207 00:55:09,600 --> 00:55:12,319 Speaker 22: and this news hasn't told us anything that a lot 1208 00:55:12,360 --> 00:55:13,920 Speaker 22: of people didn't believe already. 1209 00:55:14,120 --> 00:55:14,319 Speaker 4: Yeah. 1210 00:55:14,400 --> 00:55:17,279 Speaker 22: The other question is like, what is even meant by investigate? 1211 00:55:17,520 --> 00:55:19,560 Speaker 22: You know, there's a lot of things that are investigated, 1212 00:55:19,640 --> 00:55:21,360 Speaker 22: and that they took some notes and put it in 1213 00:55:21,440 --> 00:55:24,480 Speaker 22: a database for crime statistics, But don't really have any 1214 00:55:24,480 --> 00:55:27,879 Speaker 22: ability to go further. The risk is that over time 1215 00:55:28,320 --> 00:55:32,560 Speaker 22: this stuff erodes norms and trust. Obviously police have limited resources, 1216 00:55:32,920 --> 00:55:37,000 Speaker 22: but if people know it's open season on minor retail crime, 1217 00:55:37,360 --> 00:55:38,879 Speaker 22: then it's just going to increase in number. 1218 00:55:39,160 --> 00:55:39,359 Speaker 21: Yeah. 1219 00:55:39,600 --> 00:55:41,080 Speaker 2: I mean, it makes a really good point, doesn't the 1220 00:55:41,080 --> 00:55:43,520 Speaker 2: alley because actually, even if it's even if for all 1221 00:55:43,560 --> 00:55:45,080 Speaker 2: of the explaining that they're doing now, a lot of 1222 00:55:45,080 --> 00:55:46,919 Speaker 2: people are just going to believe that it is the case. 1223 00:55:47,880 --> 00:55:50,080 Speaker 15: Yeah, I think so. I think actually Stuart Nation made 1224 00:55:50,120 --> 00:55:53,239 Speaker 15: some really good points. I don't think they've said that 1225 00:55:53,360 --> 00:55:56,120 Speaker 15: every crime will be investigated. What I've heard is we 1226 00:55:56,239 --> 00:55:58,960 Speaker 15: will continue to catch offenders wherever possible. 1227 00:55:59,400 --> 00:56:00,800 Speaker 2: I think they said there. 1228 00:56:00,760 --> 00:56:03,560 Speaker 15: Will be a police response. That can mean anything. That 1229 00:56:03,640 --> 00:56:05,839 Speaker 15: can be a phone call to the shop to say, 1230 00:56:06,200 --> 00:56:08,799 Speaker 15: how are you going? Anyone hurt? Yeah, okay, we'll get 1231 00:56:08,840 --> 00:56:11,120 Speaker 15: there if we can. I mean, I think I think 1232 00:56:11,239 --> 00:56:13,600 Speaker 15: Thomas is right here. This has all come from this 1233 00:56:13,800 --> 00:56:16,960 Speaker 15: ridiculous What the hell is the file management center anyway? 1234 00:56:17,960 --> 00:56:20,440 Speaker 2: So Allie is the vile management center, not where you 1235 00:56:21,200 --> 00:56:23,920 Speaker 2: When the call comes in and it gets it becomes 1236 00:56:24,040 --> 00:56:26,120 Speaker 2: it becomes a file, it becomes a case. Note it 1237 00:56:26,200 --> 00:56:28,480 Speaker 2: gets sent to them, doesn't it to file it somewhere? 1238 00:56:28,600 --> 00:56:31,600 Speaker 2: They're like the librarians, aren't they? Yeah, well, who would know? 1239 00:56:31,719 --> 00:56:33,560 Speaker 15: I mean I had a visual straight away of this 1240 00:56:33,760 --> 00:56:36,000 Speaker 15: room full of files. I mean that's just because you know, 1241 00:56:36,640 --> 00:56:38,880 Speaker 15: that's how I was imagining it. But I mean they 1242 00:56:38,960 --> 00:56:43,080 Speaker 15: said that they were applying nationally standardized value thresholds basically, 1243 00:56:43,239 --> 00:56:45,560 Speaker 15: And how the hell you can be so prescriptive on 1244 00:56:45,719 --> 00:56:47,320 Speaker 15: something like that, I do not know. I think what 1245 00:56:47,440 --> 00:56:50,520 Speaker 15: Stuart Nash said was correct. It will depend on where 1246 00:56:50,600 --> 00:56:53,719 Speaker 15: the priorities are and who they have available. But you 1247 00:56:53,840 --> 00:56:57,640 Speaker 15: cannot rule out not investigating these crimes. I think as 1248 00:56:57,719 --> 00:56:59,240 Speaker 15: soon as you do, it's open season. 1249 00:56:59,480 --> 00:57:01,400 Speaker 2: Yeah. But also at the same time, job was We 1250 00:57:01,480 --> 00:57:04,000 Speaker 2: have to be realistic, don't They're just simply are not 1251 00:57:04,200 --> 00:57:06,200 Speaker 2: enough police officers to go around for all of the 1252 00:57:06,239 --> 00:57:08,440 Speaker 2: crimes that are reported, and therefore we have to put 1253 00:57:08,480 --> 00:57:10,400 Speaker 2: more power in the retailer's hands, don't we. 1254 00:57:11,760 --> 00:57:15,160 Speaker 22: Well, I mean, obviously retailers and certainly some advocates have 1255 00:57:15,200 --> 00:57:18,200 Speaker 22: been calling for the citizens arrest things we've been hearing about, 1256 00:57:18,640 --> 00:57:21,280 Speaker 22: which is fine so far as it goes. I'm open 1257 00:57:21,400 --> 00:57:24,200 Speaker 22: to it, but we don't want retailers having to defend 1258 00:57:24,280 --> 00:57:27,760 Speaker 22: themselves to be our policy prescription for crime. We need 1259 00:57:27,840 --> 00:57:30,360 Speaker 22: the cops to be able to say we are able 1260 00:57:30,440 --> 00:57:34,400 Speaker 22: to address this ourselves. Citizens arrests are a policy of 1261 00:57:34,520 --> 00:57:35,760 Speaker 22: last resort, not a plan. 1262 00:57:36,080 --> 00:57:36,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree, Heather. 1263 00:57:37,000 --> 00:57:39,360 Speaker 15: I don't understand what the big issue is here though. 1264 00:57:39,440 --> 00:57:41,320 Speaker 15: I mean, if someone is going to rip someone off 1265 00:57:41,360 --> 00:57:44,040 Speaker 15: in a shop, they are not going to know what 1266 00:57:44,200 --> 00:57:47,000 Speaker 15: the priorities are for the police at that time. So 1267 00:57:47,080 --> 00:57:49,600 Speaker 15: it's kind of a bit like Russian roulette. So if 1268 00:57:49,640 --> 00:57:52,440 Speaker 15: you're going to steal something, you could be investigated. You 1269 00:57:52,560 --> 00:57:54,000 Speaker 15: may not, but is it worth the risk? And I 1270 00:57:54,080 --> 00:57:56,200 Speaker 15: think that's probably the way the police are applying it. 1271 00:57:56,680 --> 00:57:59,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe so. So what you're doing is if you're 1272 00:57:59,560 --> 00:58:01,280 Speaker 2: going to go four, are you saying you're going to 1273 00:58:01,320 --> 00:58:03,320 Speaker 2: go make your four hundred and ninety nine dollar thing 1274 00:58:03,680 --> 00:58:05,800 Speaker 2: to be under the five hundred dollars threshold. You're taking 1275 00:58:05,800 --> 00:58:07,160 Speaker 2: a bit of a punt as to whether the cops 1276 00:58:07,200 --> 00:58:08,320 Speaker 2: are available that day or not. 1277 00:58:08,600 --> 00:58:11,520 Speaker 15: No, I think the dollar limit is just an absolute 1278 00:58:11,600 --> 00:58:12,360 Speaker 15: redhead hearring. 1279 00:58:12,480 --> 00:58:13,000 Speaker 4: I really do. 1280 00:58:13,120 --> 00:58:15,720 Speaker 15: I think we have to ignore the dollar the dollar value. 1281 00:58:15,760 --> 00:58:18,280 Speaker 15: I don't think if someone is found stealing a bottle 1282 00:58:18,320 --> 00:58:20,560 Speaker 15: of nail polish. That's probably a bit different. But I 1283 00:58:20,640 --> 00:58:22,640 Speaker 15: don't think that there's a line there that says, you know, 1284 00:58:22,800 --> 00:58:25,920 Speaker 15: five hundred bucks. I think it's dependent on whether police 1285 00:58:25,920 --> 00:58:28,800 Speaker 15: are available or not. Yes, and that's what the shoplift 1286 00:58:28,800 --> 00:58:30,920 Speaker 15: has got to consider, regardless of what they're stealing. 1287 00:58:31,120 --> 00:58:33,560 Speaker 2: Actually, yes, okay, that's a fair point. All right, we'll 1288 00:58:33,560 --> 00:58:35,280 Speaker 2: take a break. Come back to you guys shortly quarter two. 1289 00:58:36,360 --> 00:58:40,560 Speaker 1: The Huddle with New Zealand southebast International Realty achieve extraordinary 1290 00:58:40,600 --> 00:58:42,320 Speaker 1: results with unparallel reach. 1291 00:58:42,960 --> 00:58:44,840 Speaker 2: Write you back with a huddle, Alie, what are we 1292 00:58:44,880 --> 00:58:46,600 Speaker 2: going to do about this? Run it nonsense? 1293 00:58:47,640 --> 00:58:51,000 Speaker 15: Oh Heather, isn't it just tragic? I mean, this young 1294 00:58:51,120 --> 00:58:54,720 Speaker 15: man that's recently died watching it on the TV, watching 1295 00:58:54,880 --> 00:58:57,479 Speaker 15: grown men run at each other, young men and women, 1296 00:58:57,600 --> 00:58:59,880 Speaker 15: young women. They do stupid things, right, but it shouldn't 1297 00:59:00,360 --> 00:59:03,760 Speaker 15: cost them their life. And this is just stupid, absolutely stupid. 1298 00:59:04,160 --> 00:59:06,880 Speaker 15: We all know the dangers and I actually think anyone 1299 00:59:06,920 --> 00:59:09,400 Speaker 15: who organizes this as a part of this, promotes this, 1300 00:59:09,880 --> 00:59:14,240 Speaker 15: shows it on social media, should be done for attempted murder. 1301 00:59:14,400 --> 00:59:17,120 Speaker 15: I think this potentially is something that is going to 1302 00:59:17,320 --> 00:59:19,680 Speaker 15: kill people as we are seeing, and I think people 1303 00:59:19,680 --> 00:59:20,920 Speaker 15: should be held accountable for it. 1304 00:59:21,200 --> 00:59:23,400 Speaker 2: I mean, Thomas, I think we all want to hold 1305 00:59:23,440 --> 00:59:26,680 Speaker 2: somebody accountable, but realistically we can't. Really the only we 1306 00:59:26,720 --> 00:59:28,480 Speaker 2: can't even ban it really because because we'll just do 1307 00:59:28,560 --> 00:59:28,920 Speaker 2: it wherever. 1308 00:59:29,000 --> 00:59:29,560 Speaker 4: So what do you do? 1309 00:59:29,680 --> 00:59:33,160 Speaker 2: I mean, do you just to just talk to kids 1310 00:59:33,200 --> 00:59:34,960 Speaker 2: and keep ramming home the message you can't do this? 1311 00:59:36,480 --> 00:59:36,680 Speaker 4: Yeah? 1312 00:59:36,720 --> 00:59:40,200 Speaker 22: Well, I mean I think it's important to acknowledge that 1313 00:59:40,280 --> 00:59:43,000 Speaker 22: though this was an incredibly tragic loss of life with 1314 00:59:43,120 --> 00:59:46,160 Speaker 22: this young man passing away, he was not participating in 1315 00:59:46,200 --> 00:59:48,440 Speaker 22: any formal event as far as I understand it. So 1316 00:59:48,520 --> 00:59:51,800 Speaker 22: there is this formal run it straight event that's being organized, 1317 00:59:51,840 --> 00:59:55,439 Speaker 22: but he was just participating with some presumably friends, doing 1318 00:59:55,520 --> 00:59:58,680 Speaker 22: something that wasn't wise. And I worry when our first 1319 00:59:58,760 --> 01:00:01,960 Speaker 22: response to any tragedy is immediately okay, how do we 1320 01:00:02,040 --> 01:00:04,720 Speaker 22: step in and how can we immediately solve this problem? 1321 01:00:04,800 --> 01:00:07,480 Speaker 22: What should the government have already done? I think the 1322 01:00:07,600 --> 01:00:11,040 Speaker 22: run at straight events is a formal thing probably shouldn't happen, 1323 01:00:11,400 --> 01:00:14,640 Speaker 22: Certainly I can't imagine that pass any work safe assessment 1324 01:00:15,720 --> 01:00:18,400 Speaker 22: protection for the people who are participating. But in the 1325 01:00:18,480 --> 01:00:20,720 Speaker 22: case of this young man, passing away. I think it's 1326 01:00:20,720 --> 01:00:22,880 Speaker 22: a tragedy and a lesson to be learned, But there's 1327 01:00:22,920 --> 01:00:24,520 Speaker 22: not actually anything government could do. 1328 01:00:25,120 --> 01:00:27,760 Speaker 15: Well, maybe they could run a public information campaign. Then 1329 01:00:27,800 --> 01:00:29,840 Speaker 15: you know, we talk about the dangers with smoking, we 1330 01:00:29,960 --> 01:00:32,960 Speaker 15: talk about the danger of cholesterol and diabetes. I mean, 1331 01:00:33,600 --> 01:00:36,840 Speaker 15: your brain jiggling around inside your skull is quite clearly 1332 01:00:37,040 --> 01:00:38,760 Speaker 15: quite dangerous and can kill you. 1333 01:00:38,920 --> 01:00:41,240 Speaker 2: So then Ali, maybe the government, I agree with you, 1334 01:00:41,400 --> 01:00:43,160 Speaker 2: but I mean, obviously that's a message we want to 1335 01:00:43,240 --> 01:00:45,360 Speaker 2: ram home. But haven't we been talking about this with 1336 01:00:45,520 --> 01:00:49,400 Speaker 2: regard to sport and contact sport for like decades now, and. 1337 01:00:49,640 --> 01:00:52,640 Speaker 15: So have we though it's been on the news, Well, 1338 01:00:52,760 --> 01:00:54,280 Speaker 15: I think it's been on the news, and you could 1339 01:00:54,280 --> 01:00:56,280 Speaker 15: say the same about five plus a day. You could 1340 01:00:56,280 --> 01:00:58,040 Speaker 15: say that about a whole lot of stuff that we 1341 01:00:58,120 --> 01:01:02,160 Speaker 15: try and put out there from a public information, you know, perspective. 1342 01:01:02,600 --> 01:01:06,320 Speaker 15: But I think that this has become such a fad 1343 01:01:06,440 --> 01:01:09,120 Speaker 15: if you like, now, and the fact that it's got 1344 01:01:09,200 --> 01:01:11,480 Speaker 15: grown ups doing it, and as Thomas mentioned, you've got 1345 01:01:11,520 --> 01:01:15,240 Speaker 15: these almost sanctioned official events. I think it's quite different. 1346 01:01:15,360 --> 01:01:18,120 Speaker 15: I think that something seriously has to be done and 1347 01:01:18,200 --> 01:01:20,520 Speaker 15: be done soon. And I think some information Let's see 1348 01:01:20,560 --> 01:01:23,560 Speaker 15: those brains jiggling around inside those heads and sea eyes 1349 01:01:23,680 --> 01:01:25,680 Speaker 15: rolling back and people dying, because that's. 1350 01:01:25,560 --> 01:01:26,120 Speaker 20: What it does to you. 1351 01:01:26,400 --> 01:01:28,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean you wouldn't think you would think, though, Alie, 1352 01:01:28,480 --> 01:01:33,120 Speaker 2: that that just what watching these videos, seeing somebody get 1353 01:01:33,160 --> 01:01:35,120 Speaker 2: the head knock and convulse on the ground should be 1354 01:01:35,280 --> 01:01:36,760 Speaker 2: enough to make the kids not want to do it. 1355 01:01:36,960 --> 01:01:39,040 Speaker 15: And yet I do one of them want to watch 1356 01:01:39,160 --> 01:01:41,960 Speaker 15: that though. What was that thing Jackass or something on 1357 01:01:42,040 --> 01:01:44,960 Speaker 15: TV years ago? Right, that's people like watching that stuff. 1358 01:01:45,000 --> 01:01:46,959 Speaker 15: I can't watch it. It actually makes me feel sick. 1359 01:01:47,000 --> 01:01:49,560 Speaker 15: But people love that noise, they love that crunch, they 1360 01:01:49,640 --> 01:01:52,440 Speaker 15: love people landing with a bar between the legs or whatever. 1361 01:01:52,800 --> 01:01:55,120 Speaker 15: So there's always going to be a market for someone 1362 01:01:55,200 --> 01:01:57,080 Speaker 15: to see something like that, and it's just gross. 1363 01:01:57,240 --> 01:02:00,680 Speaker 2: We have to stop it, Okay, now, thoughts Thomas on 1364 01:02:00,880 --> 01:02:02,640 Speaker 2: mccron v. Macron on the plane. 1365 01:02:04,560 --> 01:02:07,400 Speaker 22: Well, I mean here there as a general rule, I 1366 01:02:07,520 --> 01:02:10,400 Speaker 22: try not to understand the French. It's a it's a 1367 01:02:10,440 --> 01:02:12,320 Speaker 22: place I just I don't want to wrap my head around. 1368 01:02:12,680 --> 01:02:15,320 Speaker 22: But what I want to say is Emmanuel Macron is 1369 01:02:15,400 --> 01:02:18,320 Speaker 22: a pro. You know, the door is open here realizes 1370 01:02:18,520 --> 01:02:21,320 Speaker 22: and immediately he switched on with a big grin, So 1371 01:02:21,560 --> 01:02:25,080 Speaker 22: he's clearly, clearly a pro when it comes to politicking. 1372 01:02:25,200 --> 01:02:30,680 Speaker 22: And what about the guy who opened the door? I mean, well, 1373 01:02:31,200 --> 01:02:33,080 Speaker 22: I wasn't going to call for it, but he has 1374 01:02:33,160 --> 01:02:35,080 Speaker 22: one job and it's opened the door at the right 1375 01:02:35,160 --> 01:02:36,680 Speaker 22: time and in the wrong time. 1376 01:02:37,000 --> 01:02:37,160 Speaker 9: Man. 1377 01:02:37,480 --> 01:02:39,600 Speaker 2: I'll tell you what though, Allie, have you ever considered, like, 1378 01:02:39,680 --> 01:02:41,960 Speaker 2: did you did you pause at any point during the 1379 01:02:42,000 --> 01:02:44,280 Speaker 2: day and thinks if it was the other way around, 1380 01:02:44,720 --> 01:02:46,720 Speaker 2: if it was a dude shoving his hands in a 1381 01:02:46,760 --> 01:02:49,040 Speaker 2: woman's face, the difference that it would be. 1382 01:02:49,720 --> 01:02:51,240 Speaker 15: I thought you were going to say, did you pause 1383 01:02:51,280 --> 01:02:56,800 Speaker 15: the video so you could see? Really No, I didn't 1384 01:02:56,840 --> 01:02:59,400 Speaker 15: think about the gender swap, to be honest, because I'm 1385 01:02:59,520 --> 01:03:01,720 Speaker 15: so fascinated by call us. 1386 01:03:01,800 --> 01:03:03,800 Speaker 2: I want to call us out because we're all finding 1387 01:03:03,880 --> 01:03:06,920 Speaker 2: this mildly amusing that it's a woman doing it to 1388 01:03:07,000 --> 01:03:09,280 Speaker 2: a man. But it's still domestic violence, isn't it. 1389 01:03:09,800 --> 01:03:10,040 Speaker 10: Yeah? 1390 01:03:10,160 --> 01:03:12,640 Speaker 15: I remember who was It was a Nigella lawson and 1391 01:03:12,800 --> 01:03:14,760 Speaker 15: her then husband a number of years ago, and he 1392 01:03:14,840 --> 01:03:17,000 Speaker 15: put his hands up around her face or neck and 1393 01:03:17,440 --> 01:03:19,600 Speaker 15: that was all over the media. I think it comes 1394 01:03:19,680 --> 01:03:23,280 Speaker 15: down to weather. People really genuinely believe this was a 1395 01:03:23,400 --> 01:03:26,520 Speaker 15: physical altercation or a bit of you know, a bit 1396 01:03:26,600 --> 01:03:31,040 Speaker 15: of fun.

And she was 1433 01:05:07,320 --> 01:05:10,720 Speaker 2: telling me that her friends their favorite conspiracy theory is, 1434 01:05:10,800 --> 01:05:13,400 Speaker 2: in fact, that Brigitte Macron is a man. So I 1435 01:05:13,480 --> 01:05:15,360 Speaker 2: didn't know this thing with them, Well, do not type 1436 01:05:15,400 --> 01:05:18,560 Speaker 2: it into your computer because it's gonna there's not just 1437 01:05:18,600 --> 01:05:21,640 Speaker 2: one or two hits on.

So now I've mentioned it. But apparently living 1446 01:05:45,280 --> 01:05:46,920 Speaker 2: proof that she is in fact a man is the 1447 01:05:46,960 --> 01:05:49,240 Speaker 2: fact that she laid hands on a man. Honey, I 1448 01:05:49,280 --> 01:05:52,120 Speaker 2: don't think that's proof that she's a man. Women do 1449 01:05:52,280 --> 01:05:54,200 Speaker 2: that regard. I don't need to be meant anyway.

The courts can't even deal with the most 1464 01:06:25,120 --> 01:06:29,600 Speaker 2: serious crime right now. Thank you for raising that, because 1465 01:06:29,640 --> 01:06:31,360 Speaker 2: we need to talk at some stage in the next 1466 01:06:31,440 --> 01:06:34,720 Speaker 2: hour about the pe dealers in Nadawahir. And there's a 1467 01:06:34,800 --> 01:06:37,720 Speaker 2: whole story there, but includes at the tail end of 1468 01:06:37,760 --> 01:06:39,919 Speaker 2: the story how we go from three years in jail 1469 01:06:39,960 --> 01:06:43,080 Speaker 2: to ten months home d And yeah, that judge should 1470 01:06:43,080 --> 01:06:45,160 Speaker 2: feel pretty ashamed of himself. I would have thought we'll 1471 01:06:45,160 --> 01:06:46,960 Speaker 2: deal with that. But next up, let's talk AI with 1472 01:06:47,080 --> 01:06:49,480 Speaker 2: Jason Parris of One New Zealand you still t b 1473 01:06:54,400 --> 01:06:55,800 Speaker 2: I get in when. 1474 01:06:57,840 --> 01:07:01,160 Speaker 1: Keeping track of where the money is flowing. The Business 1475 01:07:01,240 --> 01:07:05,680 Speaker 1: Hour with Heather duple Clan Dan Mas Insurance and Investments, 1476 01:07:06,080 --> 01:07:08,920 Speaker 1: Grow your Wealth, Protect your Future news talks that be 1477 01:07:10,400 --> 01:07:11,200 Speaker 1: even in coming up. 1478 01:07:11,160 --> 01:07:14,000 Speaker 2: In the next hour. We've got that FAGO CR decision tomorrow. 1479 01:07:14,400 --> 01:07:16,680 Speaker 2: Paul Bloxham of HSB will give us his thoughts on 1480 01:07:17,040 --> 01:07:19,720 Speaker 2: just how much it needs to drop by. Brad Olsen 1481 01:07:19,760 --> 01:07:21,440 Speaker 2: wants to fight with me about super so we'll do 1482 01:07:21,520 --> 01:07:22,960 Speaker 2: it and we'll have Ende Brady with us out of 1483 01:07:22,960 --> 01:07:26,480 Speaker 2: the UK. It's seven past six now to AI. Most 1484 01:07:26,520 --> 01:07:29,040 Speaker 2: of us use AI, and we know that we're using it. 1485 01:07:29,200 --> 01:07:31,520 Speaker 2: Four and five of us almost have used it in 1486 01:07:31,600 --> 01:07:33,840 Speaker 2: the past year knowingly. But that doesn't mean we trust it. 1487 01:07:34,160 --> 01:07:36,480 Speaker 2: And you report by One New Zealand out today found 1488 01:07:36,560 --> 01:07:39,120 Speaker 2: we do not trust large companies to use it. We're 1489 01:07:39,160 --> 01:07:41,920 Speaker 2: most concerned with our personal data being misused, with job 1490 01:07:42,000 --> 01:07:45,360 Speaker 2: losses associated with AI, and with AI making unfair decisions. 1491 01:07:45,440 --> 01:07:48,720 Speaker 2: Jason Parris is the chief executive of one end z Hi. Jason, 1492 01:07:49,240 --> 01:07:51,760 Speaker 2: I hear that, Jason, Given that most of us use it, 1493 01:07:51,920 --> 01:07:53,440 Speaker 2: you'd think they would be okay with it. But why 1494 01:07:53,480 --> 01:07:54,640 Speaker 2: are we so worried about it? 1495 01:07:56,120 --> 01:07:58,640 Speaker 23: Yeah, I think there's a bit of nervousness about it 1496 01:07:58,760 --> 01:08:01,480 Speaker 23: because people don't know that probably using it most days anyway. 1497 01:08:01,720 --> 01:08:05,160 Speaker 23: So I think the survey said seventy percent of us, no, 1498 01:08:05,320 --> 01:08:06,800 Speaker 23: we are, but I think it's more like one hundred 1499 01:08:06,800 --> 01:08:11,040 Speaker 23: percent of people are using Spotify or maps or social 1500 01:08:11,400 --> 01:08:15,840 Speaker 23: or social media. But I think it's the lack of 1501 01:08:15,920 --> 01:08:20,640 Speaker 23: transparency on what is going on behind the scenes of 1502 01:08:20,760 --> 01:08:23,640 Speaker 23: those AI tools that they don't know about. Makes you 1503 01:08:24,200 --> 01:08:27,560 Speaker 23: naturally suspicious. How are you using my data? How you 1504 01:08:27,800 --> 01:08:30,680 Speaker 23: are you are you tracking me? What is this going 1505 01:08:30,760 --> 01:08:35,120 Speaker 23: to mean for jobs and for employment when you make 1506 01:08:35,120 --> 01:08:37,439 Speaker 23: a recommendation to me? Is it in my best interests? 1507 01:08:37,520 --> 01:08:39,679 Speaker 23: Or is it in the best interests of the company. 1508 01:08:40,120 --> 01:08:43,320 Speaker 23: So all pretty interesting themes that I kind of you know, 1509 01:08:43,360 --> 01:08:45,960 Speaker 23: it makes sense that customers should be concerned about it. 1510 01:08:46,120 --> 01:08:48,880 Speaker 2: Is it maybe an underlying lack of trust in big 1511 01:08:48,920 --> 01:08:50,760 Speaker 2: corporate It's like, it's okay for me to use AI 1512 01:08:50,800 --> 01:08:52,719 Speaker 2: because I know what I'm doing and I can trust myself, 1513 01:08:52,760 --> 01:08:53,880 Speaker 2: But I don't trust those guys. 1514 01:08:55,000 --> 01:08:58,360 Speaker 23: There's probably an undertone there. It's just been around, you know, 1515 01:08:58,600 --> 01:09:03,760 Speaker 23: for years globally in New Zealand. But I think with 1516 01:09:03,840 --> 01:09:07,120 Speaker 23: the opportunity is you've got this massive opportunity, a productivity 1517 01:09:07,200 --> 01:09:11,919 Speaker 23: gain for New Zealand by using AI across different businesses 1518 01:09:12,000 --> 01:09:14,280 Speaker 23: and all facets of life. But it needs to be 1519 01:09:14,400 --> 01:09:17,920 Speaker 23: done transparently, and sometimes corporates aren't as transparent as they 1520 01:09:18,040 --> 01:09:20,080 Speaker 23: need to be, and therefore there's a. 1521 01:09:20,160 --> 01:09:21,120 Speaker 5: Question on trust. 1522 01:09:21,760 --> 01:09:23,640 Speaker 23: I don't think any corporate gets up every morning and 1523 01:09:23,720 --> 01:09:25,280 Speaker 23: goes how can I rip a customer off? And I 1524 01:09:25,320 --> 01:09:26,960 Speaker 23: don't think they're going to go how can I use 1525 01:09:27,000 --> 01:09:29,880 Speaker 23: AI to do anything bad? We just need to be 1526 01:09:29,920 --> 01:09:33,200 Speaker 23: about transparent about how we use this amazing technology. 1527 01:09:33,320 --> 01:09:36,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, do you think that the job fears are I mean, 1528 01:09:36,600 --> 01:09:38,479 Speaker 2: you mentioned it yourself. People are really worried that they 1529 01:09:38,520 --> 01:09:40,600 Speaker 2: will lose their jobs or all these humans will be 1530 01:09:40,680 --> 01:09:43,840 Speaker 2: displaced by robots. But it seems increasingly that actually it's 1531 01:09:43,960 --> 01:09:45,880 Speaker 2: more a tool for the humans to use. You still 1532 01:09:45,920 --> 01:09:48,479 Speaker 2: need the humans at the moment. 1533 01:09:48,680 --> 01:09:51,559 Speaker 23: AI is coming to your job, not for your job, 1534 01:09:51,720 --> 01:09:54,679 Speaker 23: like we've deployed AI across most parts of our business, 1535 01:09:54,800 --> 01:09:57,439 Speaker 23: and I would say the max I've seen of anyone's 1536 01:09:57,560 --> 01:10:00,639 Speaker 23: job of tasks that someone would be forming is about 1537 01:10:00,640 --> 01:10:03,320 Speaker 23: thirty percent. So what it's doing at the moment is 1538 01:10:03,479 --> 01:10:05,920 Speaker 23: just letting us get to that to do list that's 1539 01:10:06,040 --> 01:10:09,519 Speaker 23: longer than my arm that you never get to by 1540 01:10:09,640 --> 01:10:11,880 Speaker 23: removing all the noise and the stuff that you don't 1541 01:10:12,000 --> 01:10:16,320 Speaker 23: like doing because it's repetitive and boring and brain dumbing, 1542 01:10:16,600 --> 01:10:17,360 Speaker 23: so you can work on the. 1543 01:10:17,360 --> 01:10:18,240 Speaker 5: Call sexy stuff. 1544 01:10:19,080 --> 01:10:21,799 Speaker 23: And five years though, I think the technology is evolving 1545 01:10:22,240 --> 01:10:26,479 Speaker 23: fast enough to go, actually some roles won't be there 1546 01:10:26,680 --> 01:10:29,439 Speaker 23: because the roles we've got organizations are to kind of 1547 01:10:29,560 --> 01:10:34,160 Speaker 23: hide process gaps or an efficiency or old technology that 1548 01:10:34,600 --> 01:10:36,640 Speaker 23: shouldn't be in the business, and so you should be 1549 01:10:36,680 --> 01:10:39,360 Speaker 23: able to speed it up using AI. The key is 1550 01:10:39,439 --> 01:10:42,360 Speaker 23: then to make sure that you train and upscale those 1551 01:10:42,439 --> 01:10:45,599 Speaker 23: people so they can be deployed in more value creating 1552 01:10:45,680 --> 01:10:48,400 Speaker 23: roles within your organization and it doesn't come as a surprise. 1553 01:10:48,479 --> 01:10:52,880 Speaker 23: So again, corporates have a responsibility to talk early and transparently, 1554 01:10:52,960 --> 01:10:56,000 Speaker 23: not just with customers but their teams as well. 1555 01:10:56,680 --> 01:10:58,680 Speaker 2: Out of ten, how much of a cheerleader do you 1556 01:10:58,760 --> 01:10:59,400 Speaker 2: think you are. 1557 01:11:01,520 --> 01:11:02,639 Speaker 5: Well compared to the warriors? 1558 01:11:02,880 --> 01:11:06,880 Speaker 4: Or like? 1559 01:11:07,760 --> 01:11:09,760 Speaker 2: That sounded so much more disparaging than I meant it 1560 01:11:09,840 --> 01:11:11,680 Speaker 2: to sound. I don't mean it in a disparaging way 1561 01:11:11,720 --> 01:11:13,400 Speaker 2: at all, but I mean you are like a super 1562 01:11:13,560 --> 01:11:14,800 Speaker 2: enthusiast for this, aren't you. 1563 01:11:15,680 --> 01:11:15,880 Speaker 4: Well. 1564 01:11:15,960 --> 01:11:18,160 Speaker 23: I just love New Zealand, I think, and you as 1565 01:11:18,200 --> 01:11:19,840 Speaker 23: you know. I think it's the greatest country on the 1566 01:11:19,880 --> 01:11:22,240 Speaker 23: planet to live and work. Yes, we have our challenges, 1567 01:11:22,320 --> 01:11:24,720 Speaker 23: but I just think it's it's a privilege to live here. 1568 01:11:24,800 --> 01:11:27,920 Speaker 23: And I can see that AI could be the new 1569 01:11:28,960 --> 01:11:34,960 Speaker 23: productivity gain or create new areas of growth and innovation. 1570 01:11:34,720 --> 01:11:39,439 Speaker 2: For for us, especially for New Zealand fast because we move. 1571 01:11:39,360 --> 01:11:42,480 Speaker 23: Fast and our lack of scale is a massive advantage 1572 01:11:42,640 --> 01:11:46,440 Speaker 23: because we can move, we can move fast. The digitization 1573 01:11:46,560 --> 01:11:50,240 Speaker 23: of the world means that you know, actually innovation is decentralized. 1574 01:11:50,240 --> 01:11:51,920 Speaker 23: You don't need to go to Silicon Valley. You can 1575 01:11:52,000 --> 01:11:55,000 Speaker 23: do it from Auckland or Nelson or you know, Timaru. 1576 01:11:54,720 --> 01:11:57,000 Speaker 2: Jason, do you reckon? People have realized though? Have the 1577 01:11:57,040 --> 01:11:59,400 Speaker 2: big corporate leaders, Have the workers of New Zealand realized 1578 01:11:59,400 --> 01:12:01,240 Speaker 2: how much we could actually use this and harnessed it. 1579 01:12:02,400 --> 01:12:05,360 Speaker 23: I think they have. And that is the danger because 1580 01:12:05,360 --> 01:12:07,599 Speaker 23: we're going to go after it fast, which we should, 1581 01:12:08,080 --> 01:12:11,200 Speaker 23: but we need to go after it transparently and make 1582 01:12:11,280 --> 01:12:14,439 Speaker 23: sure that we do it in a way that brings 1583 01:12:14,520 --> 01:12:16,800 Speaker 23: our customers with us and they trust us for it. 1584 01:12:17,120 --> 01:12:21,559 Speaker 2: So I've downloaded the chat GPT. Well, yep, I've already had. 1585 01:12:21,600 --> 01:12:24,160 Speaker 2: It's already it's already solved a lot of my problems today. Jason, 1586 01:12:25,200 --> 01:12:26,000 Speaker 2: next minute, I'm. 1587 01:12:26,600 --> 01:12:31,160 Speaker 23: Too you should be not just at work, but also 1588 01:12:31,240 --> 01:12:32,760 Speaker 23: at home as well. I found it can get you 1589 01:12:32,840 --> 01:12:34,120 Speaker 23: out of a lot of trouble at home too. 1590 01:12:34,200 --> 01:12:36,600 Speaker 2: Oh you do you want to expand on that for us? 1591 01:12:36,800 --> 01:12:40,240 Speaker 23: Just you know, what are the excuses for me being 1592 01:12:40,880 --> 01:12:43,560 Speaker 23: you know forty five minutes late yet again for my 1593 01:12:43,720 --> 01:12:46,360 Speaker 23: wife that I haven't already used a number of times before. 1594 01:12:46,920 --> 01:12:49,960 Speaker 2: Jason, thank you very much, look after yourself. Jason Parris, 1595 01:12:50,080 --> 01:12:52,280 Speaker 2: chief executive of One New Zealand. I'll tell you what 1596 01:12:52,439 --> 01:12:56,360 Speaker 2: so on the AI, I have been a little bit 1597 01:12:56,439 --> 01:12:59,519 Speaker 2: sort of on it right because what happened was when 1598 01:12:59,560 --> 01:13:01,800 Speaker 2: it came out early days, I tried it out and 1599 01:13:01,880 --> 01:13:04,559 Speaker 2: I was just a little underwhelmed by it. I just thought, look, 1600 01:13:05,040 --> 01:13:07,840 Speaker 2: there's nothing that this thing is doing that are kind 1601 01:13:07,880 --> 01:13:10,679 Speaker 2: of like extensive Google search. Couldn't base that I couldn't 1602 01:13:10,680 --> 01:13:12,720 Speaker 2: just take a couple of minutes extra and doing an 1603 01:13:12,760 --> 01:13:16,200 Speaker 2: extensive Google search. And I don't know that chat gpt 1604 01:13:16,400 --> 01:13:18,840 Speaker 2: had an app at that stage. So it all just 1605 01:13:18,920 --> 01:13:21,680 Speaker 2: felt a little bit hard. But what has happened is 1606 01:13:21,720 --> 01:13:23,439 Speaker 2: that Jason Paris today at this event that I was 1607 01:13:23,439 --> 01:13:27,200 Speaker 2: telling you about that I chaired the panel of, he 1608 01:13:27,920 --> 01:13:32,240 Speaker 2: demonstrated how far AI has come in the last few months, 1609 01:13:32,280 --> 01:13:34,439 Speaker 2: Like where what I was using a few months ago 1610 01:13:34,439 --> 01:13:37,280 Speaker 2: and was underwhelmed by is completely different to what they're 1611 01:13:37,320 --> 01:13:39,479 Speaker 2: using right now. So he got the app open, there 1612 01:13:39,560 --> 01:13:42,479 Speaker 2: was a bunch of flowers behind him, held the app to, 1613 01:13:42,600 --> 01:13:44,320 Speaker 2: you know, open the camera and stuff, and said to 1614 01:13:44,560 --> 01:13:46,719 Speaker 2: the app, what is this? And it says, A beautiful 1615 01:13:46,720 --> 01:13:48,840 Speaker 2: bunch of flowers. It looks really nice in that particular setting. 1616 01:13:49,160 --> 01:13:51,519 Speaker 2: And then he was and it was like, it looks 1617 01:13:51,600 --> 01:13:53,320 Speaker 2: like this kind of flower and that kind of flower. 1618 01:13:53,360 --> 01:13:55,400 Speaker 2: And he asked it, where can I buy this in 1619 01:13:55,439 --> 01:13:58,240 Speaker 2: New Zealand? Name specific shops and it named specific shops 1620 01:13:58,520 --> 01:14:00,559 Speaker 2: where he could go. And so as you can see, 1621 01:14:00,640 --> 01:14:03,400 Speaker 2: I mean, you can just hold your phone to something 1622 01:14:03,640 --> 01:14:05,600 Speaker 2: and say what is it and it will tell you 1623 01:14:05,680 --> 01:14:07,040 Speaker 2: what it is and where you can buy it. I mean, 1624 01:14:07,040 --> 01:14:08,479 Speaker 2: you've got to prompt it a weep it, but that's 1625 01:14:08,520 --> 01:14:10,920 Speaker 2: a hell of a lot faster than sitting there googling, 1626 01:14:11,040 --> 01:14:13,439 Speaker 2: going purple flower, what is it? 1627 01:14:13,640 --> 01:14:14,120 Speaker 13: Is it that one? 1628 01:14:14,240 --> 01:14:16,280 Speaker 2: Or is it that one? AI will do it all 1629 01:14:16,320 --> 01:14:18,160 Speaker 2: for you. But the remarkable thing about it is not 1630 01:14:18,240 --> 01:14:20,160 Speaker 2: so much that AI is doing this, because I mean, 1631 01:14:20,200 --> 01:14:23,280 Speaker 2: I think we all anticipated AI would do this. It's 1632 01:14:23,479 --> 01:14:26,840 Speaker 2: how quickly it has advanced just in the last few 1633 01:14:26,880 --> 01:14:30,519 Speaker 2: months since I popoed it. Now I've downloaded the app. 1634 01:14:30,640 --> 01:14:31,960 Speaker 2: Now I'm going to be using it for everything, and 1635 01:14:32,000 --> 01:14:33,920 Speaker 2: I'm also going to download it on my husband's phone 1636 01:14:34,400 --> 01:14:36,800 Speaker 2: so that I can just eliminate some of the questions 1637 01:14:36,840 --> 01:14:38,760 Speaker 2: that I'm getting.

I think it'll 1651 01:15:23,040 --> 01:15:24,559 Speaker 8: be a good ration debate. 1652 01:15:24,640 --> 01:15:26,720 Speaker 20: You know, we'll have some some good information coming through 1653 01:15:26,760 --> 01:15:28,960 Speaker 20: and we'll see what principal points win at the end. 1654 01:15:29,040 --> 01:15:30,839 Speaker 2: Right, what is your problem with my position? 1655 01:15:32,400 --> 01:15:35,040 Speaker 20: My problem is that you want to you're defending your 1656 01:15:35,080 --> 01:15:37,960 Speaker 20: trying to keep the pension, and I get that. Your 1657 01:15:38,000 --> 01:15:39,519 Speaker 20: point is also that you want to see some of 1658 01:15:40,920 --> 01:15:43,519 Speaker 20: that the welfare support that's being provided out there trend 1659 01:15:43,520 --> 01:15:45,760 Speaker 20: back as well. But let's get real on the New 1660 01:15:45,840 --> 01:15:49,120 Speaker 20: Zealand Super conversation. At the moment, New Zealand is spending 1661 01:15:49,160 --> 01:15:52,400 Speaker 20: twenty three point two billion dollars on SUPER. That's more 1662 01:15:52,439 --> 01:15:55,840 Speaker 20: than the entire education budget. It's far more than any 1663 01:15:55,960 --> 01:16:00,479 Speaker 20: other benefit we've got coming forward. It is increasingly and 1664 01:16:00,520 --> 01:16:02,439 Speaker 20: I think the challenge that I've got on SUPER and 1665 01:16:02,560 --> 01:16:05,000 Speaker 20: maintaining it at its current rate is that people are 1666 01:16:05,080 --> 01:16:08,080 Speaker 20: living longer. We've got more older people coming through. At 1667 01:16:08,120 --> 01:16:10,160 Speaker 20: some point, we as a country are already having to 1668 01:16:10,240 --> 01:16:13,000 Speaker 20: start deciding what we're spending on or not. And at 1669 01:16:13,040 --> 01:16:15,200 Speaker 20: the moment, we're paying for people to be old over 1670 01:16:15,320 --> 01:16:15,920 Speaker 20: other stuff. 1671 01:16:16,360 --> 01:16:19,559 Speaker 2: Okay, what is the total welfare budget in New Zealand. 1672 01:16:19,600 --> 01:16:20,800 Speaker 2: How much do we allocate to it. 1673 01:16:21,760 --> 01:16:24,880 Speaker 20: It's a round about forty billion dollars in the last year, again, 1674 01:16:24,960 --> 01:16:29,080 Speaker 20: twenty three billion of that being New Zealand Super alone. 1675 01:16:29,320 --> 01:16:31,519 Speaker 2: Okay, so there is a huge amount, and in that 1676 01:16:31,680 --> 01:16:34,200 Speaker 2: we will be counting I mean, that's not even everything 1677 01:16:34,200 --> 01:16:35,720 Speaker 2: that I have a problem with, but in that we're 1678 01:16:35,760 --> 01:16:39,840 Speaker 2: counting the winter energy money, we're counting the assistance for 1679 01:16:40,320 --> 01:16:43,040 Speaker 2: working for families. Everything's in there, right, that's that. 1680 01:16:43,160 --> 01:16:45,439 Speaker 20: Yep, you've got everything from job seeker about four point 1681 01:16:45,479 --> 01:16:47,800 Speaker 20: six billion through to working out winter energy payment. 1682 01:16:47,920 --> 01:16:49,320 Speaker 2: Kay, brilliant. So we've got we've got a lot of 1683 01:16:49,320 --> 01:16:51,679 Speaker 2: money that we can peel back here. Now, why would 1684 01:16:51,760 --> 01:16:54,519 Speaker 2: you not start by pick because I don't mind moving 1685 01:16:54,560 --> 01:16:57,599 Speaker 2: the pension. My only argument is prioritizing, right, why would 1686 01:16:57,640 --> 01:17:00,920 Speaker 2: you not start by taking money off people who actually 1687 01:17:00,960 --> 01:17:04,480 Speaker 2: can pay for things themselves? For example, students. 1688 01:17:04,280 --> 01:17:07,840 Speaker 8: Sorry like like like older people. Mean again, you've got. 1689 01:17:08,439 --> 01:17:13,479 Speaker 2: Let me finish. I'm talking about students, right, students who 1690 01:17:13,600 --> 01:17:15,840 Speaker 2: are in the third year of university who up to 1691 01:17:15,880 --> 01:17:17,000 Speaker 2: now we're paying for it themselves. 1692 01:17:17,200 --> 01:17:17,760 Speaker 8: Why are we not? 1693 01:17:17,960 --> 01:17:19,439 Speaker 2: Why are we suddenly paying for it? Why don't we 1694 01:17:19,479 --> 01:17:20,519 Speaker 2: take that away from them first? 1695 01:17:21,280 --> 01:17:23,479 Speaker 20: Well, because in terms of being for back, it's New 1696 01:17:23,520 --> 01:17:26,320 Speaker 20: Zealand super where you'll get the biggest change there. I mean, look, 1697 01:17:26,360 --> 01:17:28,360 Speaker 20: you talk about people who can pay for it themselves. 1698 01:17:28,640 --> 01:17:31,800 Speaker 20: At the moment, fifty percent of sixty five to sixty 1699 01:17:31,880 --> 01:17:34,000 Speaker 20: nine year olds currently still work, and we are giving 1700 01:17:34,040 --> 01:17:36,760 Speaker 20: them money every single week for just being over the 1701 01:17:36,800 --> 01:17:39,160 Speaker 20: age of sixty five. There's no means testing that goes 1702 01:17:39,240 --> 01:17:41,960 Speaker 20: on at all. So in terms of I mean put 1703 01:17:41,960 --> 01:17:44,000 Speaker 20: it this way. At the moment, New Zealand Souper is 1704 01:17:44,040 --> 01:17:47,200 Speaker 20: the biggest welfare line. The second largest is Job Secret 1705 01:17:47,280 --> 01:17:47,519 Speaker 20: for PA. 1706 01:17:48,320 --> 01:17:50,280 Speaker 2: We're not going to take all of it away, Brad, 1707 01:17:50,360 --> 01:17:52,280 Speaker 2: how much are we going to save? If we shift 1708 01:17:52,320 --> 01:17:55,360 Speaker 2: the goalpost from sixty five to sixty seven, you'd. 1709 01:17:55,280 --> 01:17:57,840 Speaker 20: Shift You'd be earning a lot more back than you 1710 01:17:57,880 --> 01:17:59,880 Speaker 20: would be by making some changes for the likes of 1711 01:18:00,439 --> 01:18:04,080 Speaker 20: the student allowanced student loans and fees free that came through. 1712 01:18:04,479 --> 01:18:06,360 Speaker 2: I haven't for watched there. I would be doing a 1713 01:18:06,400 --> 01:18:08,599 Speaker 2: lot more than that. I'd be taking away that third 1714 01:18:08,680 --> 01:18:10,800 Speaker 2: year free quickly. That should be an easy hit. I 1715 01:18:10,840 --> 01:18:13,280 Speaker 2: don't even understand why they're not doing that fast. I 1716 01:18:13,479 --> 01:18:16,200 Speaker 2: do that, then I take away the winter energy payment, 1717 01:18:16,200 --> 01:18:18,360 Speaker 2: because then at least you're peeling a little bit a 1718 01:18:18,439 --> 01:18:21,439 Speaker 2: bit of something away from the pensioners. But also then 1719 01:18:21,479 --> 01:18:23,360 Speaker 2: I'd start having a really good look at that working 1720 01:18:23,400 --> 01:18:26,439 Speaker 2: for families which has just basically blown out, hasn't it. 1721 01:18:26,760 --> 01:18:29,080 Speaker 2: And in there do you not think that you could 1722 01:18:29,120 --> 01:18:32,280 Speaker 2: save as much as if you take away those two 1723 01:18:32,360 --> 01:18:33,720 Speaker 2: years off pensioners. 1724 01:18:34,000 --> 01:18:35,760 Speaker 20: Well, I think of you if you took the two 1725 01:18:35,840 --> 01:18:39,080 Speaker 20: years off pension if you changed that age. And that's 1726 01:18:39,160 --> 01:18:41,200 Speaker 20: more specifically because we know that people are spending an 1727 01:18:41,200 --> 01:18:44,400 Speaker 20: extra nearly five years on SUPER than they were before. Yes, 1728 01:18:44,479 --> 01:18:46,200 Speaker 20: put it this way, if I was telling you that 1729 01:18:46,280 --> 01:18:48,960 Speaker 20: people were spending five extra years on jobs seeking benefits, 1730 01:18:48,960 --> 01:18:51,840 Speaker 20: you'll be absolutely you know, besides yourself with the level 1731 01:18:51,880 --> 01:18:54,040 Speaker 20: of benefit dependency there. And that's what we're doing with SUPER. 1732 01:18:54,360 --> 01:18:57,200 Speaker 20: So I guess my proposal here is if you're wanting 1733 01:18:57,280 --> 01:18:59,960 Speaker 20: to sort of figure out where you can claw back 1734 01:19:00,120 --> 01:19:02,960 Speaker 20: some of the money that isn't currently sort of targeted 1735 01:19:03,000 --> 01:19:04,920 Speaker 20: to the people that need it the most, New Zealand 1736 01:19:04,960 --> 01:19:07,400 Speaker 20: Super is far and away the area that you need 1737 01:19:07,439 --> 01:19:09,960 Speaker 20: to address first. Yes, you might be willing to address 1738 01:19:10,040 --> 01:19:12,680 Speaker 20: those other areas too, but you're talking since on the 1739 01:19:12,760 --> 01:19:14,840 Speaker 20: dollar compared to what you're doing. If you change New 1740 01:19:14,920 --> 01:19:17,479 Speaker 20: Zealand Super, we literally are getting to the point hither 1741 01:19:17,520 --> 01:19:19,920 Speaker 20: where we will be spending one in five dollars that 1742 01:19:20,000 --> 01:19:22,160 Speaker 20: government spends will be on New Zealand Souper in about 1743 01:19:22,160 --> 01:19:22,920 Speaker 20: a decade's time. 1744 01:19:23,160 --> 01:19:24,800 Speaker 8: So all the other stuff is pipsqueaks. 1745 01:19:24,920 --> 01:19:27,200 Speaker 2: Ay you means testing it or are you just going 1746 01:19:27,280 --> 01:19:30,200 Speaker 2: sixty five to sixty seven for everybody, I. 1747 01:19:30,200 --> 01:19:31,400 Speaker 8: Would probably look at doing both. 1748 01:19:31,439 --> 01:19:33,519 Speaker 20: I mean, the sixty five to sixty seven shift is 1749 01:19:33,600 --> 01:19:37,040 Speaker 20: purely because life expectancy has increased from where it was 1750 01:19:37,120 --> 01:19:39,439 Speaker 20: in the nineteen nineties when we last change give a brand. 1751 01:19:39,439 --> 01:19:40,680 Speaker 2: I'm going to come back to you on this, and 1752 01:19:40,720 --> 01:19:42,439 Speaker 2: I'm it say it's very easy for you to say 1753 01:19:42,479 --> 01:19:46,120 Speaker 2: this because you sit on your butt all day doing economics. Right, 1754 01:19:46,320 --> 01:19:50,040 Speaker 2: you try telling this to a builder who's carrying gigantic 1755 01:19:50,080 --> 01:19:52,920 Speaker 2: pieces of timber since he was seventeen, eighteen years old. 1756 01:19:53,160 --> 01:19:55,599 Speaker 2: His body is broken by sixty never mind sixty five, 1757 01:19:55,720 --> 01:19:56,679 Speaker 2: never mind sixty seven. 1758 01:19:57,680 --> 01:20:00,559 Speaker 20: Then you address that in the right way through targeting, 1759 01:20:00,680 --> 01:20:03,200 Speaker 20: not by providing it to everyone. Because while I might 1760 01:20:03,240 --> 01:20:05,400 Speaker 20: agree with you, there around the likes of construction workers 1761 01:20:05,479 --> 01:20:07,680 Speaker 20: and some of my father is one of them. You 1762 01:20:07,800 --> 01:20:09,639 Speaker 20: look at the number of people there that are still 1763 01:20:09,720 --> 01:20:12,840 Speaker 20: getting paid plus when they're over the age of sixty five, 1764 01:20:12,920 --> 01:20:14,400 Speaker 20: that are also doing jobs. 1765 01:20:14,200 --> 01:20:14,920 Speaker 8: Just like mine. 1766 01:20:15,040 --> 01:20:18,280 Speaker 2: And I'm not another one for you, Okay, I'm. 1767 01:20:18,120 --> 01:20:20,479 Speaker 20: Thinking here that you would argue I expect that looking 1768 01:20:20,479 --> 01:20:22,840 Speaker 20: at that same example, if you had brad Age sixty 1769 01:20:22,880 --> 01:20:25,320 Speaker 20: seven currently doing his economist's role, are you wanting to 1770 01:20:25,320 --> 01:20:26,360 Speaker 20: give him New Zealand Super. 1771 01:20:26,439 --> 01:20:28,280 Speaker 8: Can you really support that, Brad? 1772 01:20:28,439 --> 01:20:30,719 Speaker 2: I think that you've paid a lot in your taxes 1773 01:20:30,760 --> 01:20:32,600 Speaker 2: and you deserve to be looked after. And if you 1774 01:20:32,680 --> 01:20:34,680 Speaker 2: don't want to work at sixty five, y're entitled to. 1775 01:20:35,080 --> 01:20:37,759 Speaker 20: But that's a difference here because I haven't actually contributed 1776 01:20:37,760 --> 01:20:41,400 Speaker 20: anything through to my future New Zealand Super payments. All 1777 01:20:41,439 --> 01:20:44,000 Speaker 20: I'm doing at the moment as a taxpayer under thirty 1778 01:20:44,080 --> 01:20:46,160 Speaker 20: is I'm currently paying for the Super for those who 1779 01:20:46,200 --> 01:20:49,240 Speaker 20: are currently retired. There is no pre payment here of 1780 01:20:49,360 --> 01:20:51,479 Speaker 20: New Zealand Super apart from a bit of an adjustment 1781 01:20:51,560 --> 01:20:53,920 Speaker 20: in the Color Fund. But put it this way for you, hither, 1782 01:20:54,160 --> 01:20:57,720 Speaker 20: when you're not currently retired, you have not pre paid anything. 1783 01:20:57,479 --> 01:20:59,519 Speaker 8: For you take it. The government owes you nothing. 1784 01:20:59,680 --> 01:21:03,000 Speaker 2: Okay. I totally accept that argument. I mean that emotionally 1785 01:21:03,080 --> 01:21:05,040 Speaker 2: they do. But I understand what you're saying. But what 1786 01:21:05,160 --> 01:21:07,479 Speaker 2: about this? Okay, So if we were to adjust sixty 1787 01:21:07,560 --> 01:21:09,280 Speaker 2: five to sixty seven, when are we doing it? 1788 01:21:10,720 --> 01:21:13,240 Speaker 20: I would start to increase it by anywhere from three 1789 01:21:13,280 --> 01:21:14,799 Speaker 20: to six months almost immediately. 1790 01:21:15,040 --> 01:21:17,719 Speaker 2: No, but you're you, you don't get to call the shots. 1791 01:21:17,760 --> 01:21:19,960 Speaker 2: Let's be realistic about this. When are the politicians going 1792 01:21:20,000 --> 01:21:21,439 Speaker 2: to do it? When did Billings shake? 1793 01:21:22,080 --> 01:21:24,680 Speaker 8: I'll still be alive. I don't know if I'll still 1794 01:21:24,680 --> 01:21:26,120 Speaker 8: be alive when the politicians. 1795 01:21:25,760 --> 01:21:30,320 Speaker 2: Okay, move, I mean what you're arguing about is something 1796 01:21:30,360 --> 01:21:33,639 Speaker 2: that they will start signaling now for thirty years from now. Okay, 1797 01:21:33,680 --> 01:21:34,599 Speaker 2: can we wait that long? 1798 01:21:35,520 --> 01:21:35,640 Speaker 4: Well? 1799 01:21:35,760 --> 01:21:37,720 Speaker 2: No, I don't think we can all start with the 1800 01:21:37,840 --> 01:21:40,280 Speaker 2: tertiary stuff immediately and then we'll pencil that and for 1801 01:21:40,360 --> 01:21:41,120 Speaker 2: later down the track. 1802 01:21:41,240 --> 01:21:44,680 Speaker 8: But here are you really saying though that you think 1803 01:21:44,760 --> 01:21:47,400 Speaker 8: that the country is totally on board with changing things 1804 01:21:47,479 --> 01:21:49,320 Speaker 8: up and making it harder for young people, but we 1805 01:21:49,400 --> 01:21:51,720 Speaker 8: shouldn't be able to touch what older people. Yes, that 1806 01:21:52,280 --> 01:21:52,800 Speaker 8: is wrong. 1807 01:21:53,080 --> 01:21:54,920 Speaker 20: That is absolutely wrong, and if that's the country that 1808 01:21:54,960 --> 01:21:57,719 Speaker 20: we live in, I'm really sad and worried for our future. 1809 01:21:58,240 --> 01:22:00,400 Speaker 2: No have you did you not learn to respect you elders? 1810 01:22:01,479 --> 01:22:03,200 Speaker 20: How don't we learn to respect my olders? But I 1811 01:22:03,320 --> 01:22:06,240 Speaker 20: also learned that respect has to be earned, not just given. 1812 01:22:06,280 --> 01:22:09,160 Speaker 20: And I think that even those who are over sixty 1813 01:22:09,200 --> 01:22:11,800 Speaker 20: five must recognize at this point that just getting paid 1814 01:22:11,840 --> 01:22:14,840 Speaker 20: money for every single over sixty five year old just 1815 01:22:15,120 --> 01:22:17,439 Speaker 20: by simply existing is not the best way to spend 1816 01:22:17,479 --> 01:22:20,639 Speaker 20: twenty three billion dollars, the largest single piece of spending 1817 01:22:20,880 --> 01:22:22,160 Speaker 20: outside of the healthcare system. 1818 01:22:22,320 --> 01:22:25,040 Speaker 2: Brad, I love your enthusiasm. Thank you for talking me 1819 01:22:25,120 --> 01:22:26,599 Speaker 2: through it. You've given me a lot to think about. 1820 01:22:26,680 --> 01:22:28,120 Speaker 2: I'm going to go away and think about it, and 1821 01:22:28,160 --> 01:22:30,080 Speaker 2: I hope you'll think about some of the stuff, maybe 1822 01:22:30,640 --> 01:22:32,280 Speaker 2: some of the stuff I said to you. Brad Olson, 1823 01:22:32,520 --> 01:22:36,280 Speaker 2: principal economist at Infmetrics, twenty five past six. 1824 01:22:38,040 --> 01:22:40,560 Speaker 1: If it's to do with money, it matters to you. 1825 01:22:41,120 --> 01:22:44,559 Speaker 1: The Business Hour with Heather of Duplic Ellen and Mars 1826 01:22:44,720 --> 01:22:49,240 Speaker 1: Insurance and investments, Grow your wealth, protect your future Newstalgs 1827 01:22:49,240 --> 01:22:49,519 Speaker 1: that'd be. 1828 01:22:50,479 --> 01:22:53,160 Speaker 2: Paul Bloxham of HSBC will be with us after the news. 1829 01:22:53,439 --> 01:22:55,960 Speaker 2: Hither one win for Brad.

Heither, I'm four months away 1832 01:23:02,680 --> 01:23:05,679 Speaker 2: from getting the pension. I agree with everything that Brad said.

We are also paying over four hundred thousand 1840 01:23:24,880 --> 01:23:26,760 Speaker 2: people on the bloody doll Sort out that lot of 1841 01:23:26,800 --> 01:23:29,639 Speaker 2: bloodges first before interfering with New Zealand super payments. 1842 01:23:29,640 --> 01:23:30,439 Speaker 8: Do you know what I agree with? 1843 01:23:30,560 --> 01:23:32,840 Speaker 2: Do you know what so I said to chat GPT. 1844 01:23:32,880 --> 01:23:35,639 Speaker 2: He said, how many beneficiaries are there in New Zealand currently? 1845 01:23:36,479 --> 01:23:41,559 Speaker 2: AI says three hundred and ninety eight thousand people, twelve 1846 01:23:41,680 --> 01:23:43,480 Speaker 2: percent of the working age population. 1847 01:23:44,120 --> 01:23:44,439 Speaker 20: Super. 1848 01:23:44,600 --> 01:23:47,400 Speaker 2: Listen, here's the problem. Super is the easy thing to cut, 1849 01:23:47,479 --> 01:23:48,880 Speaker 2: because then you don't have to cut all this other 1850 01:23:48,960 --> 01:23:51,160 Speaker 2: crack that's going on in this country as well. Cut 1851 01:23:51,240 --> 01:23:54,280 Speaker 2: the doll bludges, cut the free stuff for students that 1852 01:23:54,360 --> 01:23:57,840 Speaker 2: they don't need, cut the payments to babies for being babies, 1853 01:23:57,840 --> 01:23:59,920 Speaker 2: and come on, cut all of that stuff. And when 1854 01:24:00,040 --> 01:24:02,040 Speaker 2: you still don't have enough money, then we'll start talking 1855 01:24:02,080 --> 01:24:05,559 Speaker 2: about the pension headline sneakin new. 1856 01:24:05,800 --> 01:24:12,080 Speaker 1: Person over again, crunching the numbers and getting the results. 1857 01:24:12,400 --> 01:24:15,200 Speaker 1: It's Heather, due for Sea Ellen with the business hour 1858 01:24:15,560 --> 01:24:19,720 Speaker 1: and mass insurance and investments, grow your wealth, protect your 1859 01:24:19,760 --> 01:24:20,920 Speaker 1: future news talks. 1860 01:24:20,960 --> 01:24:21,240 Speaker 4: That'd be. 1861 01:24:22,840 --> 01:24:27,680 Speaker 24: O, ma, won't you fabnam. 1862 01:24:30,000 --> 01:24:32,000 Speaker 2: Let's start, got to tell you what happened in Nadawaihi. 1863 01:24:32,080 --> 01:24:34,880 Speaker 2: I almost forgot with the gang at you remember the 1864 01:24:34,880 --> 01:24:36,880 Speaker 2: Sandwich Gang. I'll give you a little update on that shortly. 1865 01:24:36,960 --> 01:24:39,920 Speaker 2: It's twenty through old. By the way, Heather Brad's convinced 1866 01:24:39,960 --> 01:24:42,160 Speaker 2: me that the pensionage should go back to sixty cut 1867 01:24:42,200 --> 01:24:45,560 Speaker 2: the fifteen billion dollar borrowed for tax cuts. So that 1868 01:24:45,640 --> 01:24:47,840 Speaker 2: backfired on him, didn't it. Twenty three away from seven now, 1869 01:24:47,880 --> 01:24:50,360 Speaker 2: all eyes are on the Reserve Bank tomorrow afternoon, when 1870 01:24:50,400 --> 01:24:53,040 Speaker 2: the Acting Reserve Bank Governor, Christian Hawksby will announce any 1871 01:24:53,160 --> 01:24:55,560 Speaker 2: changes to the OCR and then talk to media for 1872 01:24:55,600 --> 01:24:58,040 Speaker 2: the first time as the governor. Paul Bloxham is HSPECIES 1873 01:24:58,120 --> 01:25:02,200 Speaker 2: chief economist, Hey Paul good aim twenty five basis point cut. 1874 01:25:03,800 --> 01:25:06,760 Speaker 5: I think that's likely. That's certainly what we think's gonna arrive, 1875 01:25:07,640 --> 01:25:09,840 Speaker 5: and that's the consensus obviously in the market as well. 1876 01:25:09,880 --> 01:25:12,000 Speaker 5: I mean, there's always a possibility it doesn't, but I 1877 01:25:12,080 --> 01:25:15,559 Speaker 5: think that the way the economy is still quite sluggish 1878 01:25:15,560 --> 01:25:18,479 Speaker 5: and growth is still weak enough that the RBNZ is 1879 01:25:18,640 --> 01:25:21,960 Speaker 5: likely to be focused on that weaker growth story, and 1880 01:25:22,120 --> 01:25:25,080 Speaker 5: inflation is low enough at least on the last print 1881 01:25:25,160 --> 01:25:27,080 Speaker 5: to allow them to be able to ease a bit further. 1882 01:25:27,400 --> 01:25:29,680 Speaker 5: But the key question is going to be what they 1883 01:25:29,760 --> 01:25:31,880 Speaker 5: have to say about what's coming after that. I think 1884 01:25:31,920 --> 01:25:34,840 Speaker 5: that's where you can have a much sort of more 1885 01:25:34,920 --> 01:25:36,400 Speaker 5: vivid debate about what's next. 1886 01:25:36,720 --> 01:25:38,360 Speaker 2: Why not cup fifty basis points? 1887 01:25:40,320 --> 01:25:42,760 Speaker 5: Well, I think the RBNZ has done a lot of 1888 01:25:42,840 --> 01:25:45,559 Speaker 5: easing already, is the answer. They've already cut their cash 1889 01:25:45,640 --> 01:25:48,439 Speaker 5: right by two hundred basis points over a pretty small 1890 01:25:48,479 --> 01:25:50,040 Speaker 5: amount of time if you think about it. I mean, 1891 01:25:50,280 --> 01:25:52,240 Speaker 5: the first cut came in August of last year. We're 1892 01:25:52,240 --> 01:25:54,519 Speaker 5: sitting here in May of this year. I mean, I 1893 01:25:54,560 --> 01:25:57,000 Speaker 5: think so that's one reason there's a lot of easing 1894 01:25:57,040 --> 01:25:59,639 Speaker 5: that's already been put in place. I think the second 1895 01:25:59,680 --> 01:26:01,920 Speaker 5: one is that you are seeing some signs that it's 1896 01:26:01,960 --> 01:26:04,600 Speaker 5: starting to get a bit of traction. You know, the 1897 01:26:05,280 --> 01:26:07,360 Speaker 5: retail numbers last week, we're a bit on the stronger 1898 01:26:07,400 --> 01:26:10,519 Speaker 5: side for the first quarter. You're seeing some signs of 1899 01:26:10,520 --> 01:26:12,760 Speaker 5: stability in the housing market, a turnaround in some of 1900 01:26:12,800 --> 01:26:16,000 Speaker 5: the sentiment indicators in the business sector. And we know 1901 01:26:16,400 --> 01:26:19,840 Speaker 5: monetary policy operates with legs. You cut interest rates, it 1902 01:26:19,920 --> 01:26:22,000 Speaker 5: takes time for it to feed through. So you've put 1903 01:26:22,040 --> 01:26:24,760 Speaker 5: a lot of stimulus into the economy, you're seeing some 1904 01:26:24,840 --> 01:26:27,680 Speaker 5: signs it's getting some traction. I think there's probably enough 1905 01:26:27,760 --> 01:26:29,960 Speaker 5: evidence that you might want to ease just a bit further. 1906 01:26:30,120 --> 01:26:32,320 Speaker 5: But that's where it's going to start to become a 1907 01:26:32,400 --> 01:26:35,160 Speaker 5: question as to how much more beyond that needs to 1908 01:26:35,240 --> 01:26:37,840 Speaker 5: be done to get the economy to turn around and 1909 01:26:37,960 --> 01:26:40,439 Speaker 5: to still keep inflation consistent with target. 1910 01:26:40,600 --> 01:26:42,400 Speaker 2: So the thing is, Paul, I mean, everybody agrees that 1911 01:26:42,439 --> 01:26:44,400 Speaker 2: we're sitting above neutral at the moment, right that is 1912 01:26:44,479 --> 01:26:47,400 Speaker 2: still that OCR at that level is still strangling to 1913 01:26:47,479 --> 01:26:51,080 Speaker 2: some extent. Given how bad the economy is, surely you 1914 01:26:51,640 --> 01:26:54,719 Speaker 2: should actually be a neutral, if not below and providing 1915 01:26:54,800 --> 01:26:55,320 Speaker 2: some stimulus. 1916 01:26:55,320 --> 01:26:55,720 Speaker 4: So why not? 1917 01:26:57,760 --> 01:27:01,040 Speaker 5: Well, I think two things. One is an estimate. We 1918 01:27:01,120 --> 01:27:03,479 Speaker 5: don't actually know where neutral lives. We don't know, you know, 1919 01:27:03,560 --> 01:27:07,560 Speaker 5: it's always an estimated concept. And there are large Arabans 1920 01:27:07,640 --> 01:27:11,680 Speaker 5: around where that neutral estimate lies as well. And you know, 1921 01:27:11,800 --> 01:27:14,400 Speaker 5: so I think for the moment, it pays the Arbenz 1922 01:27:14,560 --> 01:27:16,600 Speaker 5: to be a little bit more cautious in terms of 1923 01:27:16,680 --> 01:27:19,000 Speaker 5: the pace at which they deliver rate cuts. We've already 1924 01:27:19,000 --> 01:27:21,920 Speaker 5: seen them pivot out of the fifty basis point moves 1925 01:27:21,920 --> 01:27:23,800 Speaker 5: they were doing to the last time they moved to 1926 01:27:23,880 --> 01:27:26,439 Speaker 5: a twenty five basis point move, and I think you're 1927 01:27:26,439 --> 01:27:29,360 Speaker 5: seeing signs that the domestic economy stabilizing. One other remark 1928 01:27:29,439 --> 01:27:32,960 Speaker 5: would be you have seen in their most recent reading 1929 01:27:33,120 --> 01:27:36,000 Speaker 5: of inflation expectations. So they do their own They've got 1930 01:27:36,040 --> 01:27:39,160 Speaker 5: a survey that looks at what consumers think inflation will 1931 01:27:39,200 --> 01:27:41,559 Speaker 5: do going forward, a bit of a lift. It's picked 1932 01:27:41,640 --> 01:27:43,519 Speaker 5: up a little bit, So that might be something that 1933 01:27:43,600 --> 01:27:45,160 Speaker 5: the Arbans that will just want to keep a bit 1934 01:27:45,200 --> 01:27:48,360 Speaker 5: of an eye on that inflation does remain on target 1935 01:27:48,479 --> 01:27:51,560 Speaker 5: and well embedded and anchored at the middle point of 1936 01:27:51,600 --> 01:27:52,280 Speaker 5: their target band. 1937 01:27:52,600 --> 01:27:54,320 Speaker 2: Paul, it's good to talk to you. I appreciate your 1938 01:27:54,320 --> 01:27:56,680 Speaker 2: time and enjoy tomorrow. It's Paul blockham Ah Species Chief 1939 01:27:56,720 --> 01:28:01,280 Speaker 2: Economists is twenty away.

I remember 1941 01:28:03,840 --> 01:28:05,559 Speaker 2: that that was maybe like I want to say, ten 1942 01:28:05,640 --> 01:28:08,679 Speaker 2: years ago, that about twenty fifteen, twenty sixteen or thereabouts, 1943 01:28:08,680 --> 01:28:11,080 Speaker 2: when everybody was John Key was still in power and 1944 01:28:11,240 --> 01:28:13,920 Speaker 2: everybody was still talking about child poverty and it was 1945 01:28:13,960 --> 01:28:16,760 Speaker 2: the big thing blah blah blah. And in Gadawahire there 1946 01:28:16,840 --> 01:28:19,559 Speaker 2: was this gang called the Tribal Huck and they were 1947 01:28:19,640 --> 01:28:23,000 Speaker 2: awesome people, like really really cool people because even though 1948 01:28:23,040 --> 01:28:25,519 Speaker 2: they were a gang, I mean, never mind that, but 1949 01:28:25,600 --> 01:28:27,559 Speaker 2: they because they were feeding the sandwiches to the kids 1950 01:28:27,600 --> 01:28:29,519 Speaker 2: and they were like feeding like a thousand kids or something. 1951 01:28:29,840 --> 01:28:33,320 Speaker 2: Really good people and also declared a war on peace. 1952 01:28:33,360 --> 01:28:36,200 Speaker 2: Said that's it pea dealers.

And we were 1955 01:28:40,080 --> 01:28:43,000 Speaker 2: like just look at them, how cool are they? Well, 1956 01:28:43,080 --> 01:28:45,320 Speaker 2: one of them has just been sentenced for having pea himself, 1957 01:28:45,800 --> 01:28:49,479 Speaker 2: isn't he Of course he has. He had it for 1958 01:28:49,560 --> 01:28:53,000 Speaker 2: possession for himself and supply for other people. Yeah, I 1959 01:28:53,040 --> 01:28:54,720 Speaker 2: remember how they were like all the dealers need to 1960 01:28:54,720 --> 01:28:57,040 Speaker 2: get out of town. He was a dealer. So anyway, 1961 01:28:57,080 --> 01:29:00,920 Speaker 2: his name is anou Tukere. He's twenty nine. He was 1962 01:29:00,960 --> 01:29:03,360 Speaker 2: in the Hamilton District Court yesterday on a charge of 1963 01:29:03,400 --> 01:29:06,760 Speaker 2: possession of methem fetamine for supply. What happened is it's 1964 01:29:06,880 --> 01:29:09,160 Speaker 2: New Year's Day and it's like two forty five ash 1965 01:29:09,200 --> 01:29:11,280 Speaker 2: or something, it's just before three o'clock in the afternoon, 1966 01:29:11,760 --> 01:29:14,960 Speaker 2: and this black Holden Captiva is going a little too 1967 01:29:15,040 --> 01:29:17,439 Speaker 2: fast on Great South Thrown. They're past Topiti, you know, 1968 01:29:17,600 --> 01:29:20,679 Speaker 2: past the little hill. He's driving faster than the posted 1969 01:29:20,720 --> 01:29:23,040 Speaker 2: speed limits. So the police pull them over and there's 1970 01:29:23,080 --> 01:29:24,880 Speaker 2: old mate two kit. He's sitting in the front seat, 1971 01:29:24,960 --> 01:29:27,879 Speaker 2: isn't he But he's not driving his past. His partner's 1972 01:29:27,920 --> 01:29:31,519 Speaker 2: driving sheee. I'm assuming she's the one that's driving too fast. 1973 01:29:31,880 --> 01:29:33,160 Speaker 2: And the cops go, let me just have a look 1974 01:29:33,200 --> 01:29:34,840 Speaker 2: inside this gloff box, if you don't mind, And they 1975 01:29:34,920 --> 01:29:36,400 Speaker 2: open it up and oh, look there's a little black 1976 01:29:36,439 --> 01:29:38,640 Speaker 2: lead the bag. And they're looking inside the black lead 1977 01:29:38,680 --> 01:29:41,000 Speaker 2: the bag and ooh, there's a little clear plastic container 1978 01:29:41,040 --> 01:29:43,560 Speaker 2: with a yellow lid, and it's got some crystals in it, 1979 01:29:43,840 --> 01:29:46,639 Speaker 2: and it's methem fetter Meine and it's two ziploc bags. 1980 01:29:46,680 --> 01:29:49,639 Speaker 2: Also they're containing the same it's about eighty unused small 1981 01:29:49,720 --> 01:29:52,479 Speaker 2: plastic zip block point bags. Now, the only reason you've 1982 01:29:52,479 --> 01:29:54,680 Speaker 2: got eighty small ziploc point bags is gonna put all 1983 01:29:54,720 --> 01:29:56,160 Speaker 2: the p in that and then sell it to other people, 1984 01:29:56,280 --> 01:29:58,800 Speaker 2: aren't you? Three three and a half thousand dollars in cash, 1985 01:29:59,040 --> 01:30:03,439 Speaker 2: some electronic scale. Hey, that's not for weighing yourself on, 1986 01:30:03,800 --> 01:30:07,880 Speaker 2: it's for weighing the methamphetamine and two one hundred graand 1987 01:30:07,920 --> 01:30:10,439 Speaker 2: metal weights. The total weight of all of the metham 1988 01:30:10,439 --> 01:30:13,360 Speaker 2: fetamine was thirty six grams. He tells the cops. He's 1989 01:30:13,439 --> 01:30:15,559 Speaker 2: just fess right up. He says, yep, I bought about 1990 01:30:15,600 --> 01:30:19,280 Speaker 2: fourteen grams of meth on Facebook marketplace, and he was 1991 01:30:19,320 --> 01:30:21,360 Speaker 2: selling it to make money fast because he had kids. 1992 01:30:21,760 --> 01:30:24,320 Speaker 2: So the judge said, look, I'm going to sentence you 1993 01:30:24,400 --> 01:30:26,439 Speaker 2: on this. First of all the judges like, oh here, 1994 01:30:26,479 --> 01:30:28,560 Speaker 2: you guys were telling everybody that you were running the 1995 01:30:28,600 --> 01:30:31,240 Speaker 2: p dealers out of time. Isn't it ironic? Well, isn't 1996 01:30:31,320 --> 01:30:34,840 Speaker 2: it just anyway? So Judge Cocarello takes a starting point 1997 01:30:34,880 --> 01:30:37,920 Speaker 2: of three years in jail, but because I said, he's sorry, 1998 01:30:38,000 --> 01:30:41,000 Speaker 2: really quickly, he gets twenty five percent knocked off, and 1999 01:30:41,120 --> 01:30:44,840 Speaker 2: then his efforts towards rehab warrant a further ten percent off. 2000 01:30:45,080 --> 01:30:49,960 Speaker 2: That takes him, how convenient twenty three months jail term. Now, 2001 01:30:49,960 --> 01:30:52,280 Speaker 2: I don't know if you know this, but if you 2002 01:30:52,840 --> 01:30:55,040 Speaker 2: if your sentence is less than twenty four months in 2003 01:30:55,160 --> 01:30:58,560 Speaker 2: jail it can be converted to home D. Isn't that 2004 01:30:58,640 --> 01:31:01,000 Speaker 2: amazing The judge landed at twenty three months. Isn't that 2005 01:31:01,040 --> 01:31:03,920 Speaker 2: incredible that it landed there at twenty three months and 2006 01:31:04,160 --> 01:31:06,479 Speaker 2: he converted it to ten months of home D because 2007 01:31:06,479 --> 01:31:11,439 Speaker 2: that's what happens nowadays. So anyway, what have we learned 2008 01:31:11,520 --> 01:31:15,519 Speaker 2: from this lesson? Number one? Judges are soft? Number two, 2009 01:31:16,160 --> 01:31:18,280 Speaker 2: when the gang members tell you that they are awesome 2010 01:31:18,360 --> 01:31:20,200 Speaker 2: people and they're feeding the kids and they're running the 2011 01:31:20,200 --> 01:31:23,320 Speaker 2: p dealers out of town. Just remember, Leopards don't change 2012 01:31:23,360 --> 01:31:25,920 Speaker 2: their spots, do they. Sixteen away from seven. 2013 01:31:27,200 --> 01:31:31,360 Speaker 1: Whether it's macro micro or just playing economics. It's all 2014 01:31:31,439 --> 01:31:34,960 Speaker 1: on the Business Hour with Heather Duplicy, Allen and Las 2015 01:31:35,160 --> 01:31:38,719 Speaker 1: Insurance and investments, Grow your wealth to protect your future. 2016 01:31:39,000 --> 01:31:39,800 Speaker 4: You talk sent me. 2017 01:31:40,880 --> 01:31:43,120 Speaker 2: Thirteen away from seven now. Of course, Indo Brady is 2018 01:31:43,160 --> 01:31:45,000 Speaker 2: not with us this evening. He's running a crazy event 2019 01:31:45,080 --> 01:31:47,000 Speaker 2: in South America, like he was telling us last week. 2020 01:31:47,040 --> 01:31:49,400 Speaker 2: So while he's doing that, we've got Elizabeth Callahan with 2021 01:31:49,640 --> 01:31:54,800 Speaker 2: us from the with the latest from the UK. Elizabeth, Hello, Hello, Hello, 2022 01:31:55,040 --> 01:31:57,880 Speaker 2: thank you for having me, Thank you so much. What's 2023 01:31:57,920 --> 01:32:00,240 Speaker 2: the latest with us? This car ramming in Paul. 2024 01:32:01,760 --> 01:32:05,639 Speaker 24: Yeah, this is a truly horrific incident that's taken place 2025 01:32:05,920 --> 01:32:10,439 Speaker 24: yesterday evening. So dozens have been injured after a car 2026 01:32:10,760 --> 01:32:15,240 Speaker 24: plowed into pedestrians during Liverpool's victory parade. Really truly horrific. 2027 01:32:15,400 --> 01:32:17,240 Speaker 24: So people were out what should have been a joyous 2028 01:32:17,240 --> 01:32:21,200 Speaker 24: celebration of Liverpool winning the Premier League has turned into 2029 01:32:21,520 --> 01:32:25,960 Speaker 24: chaotic scenes. So nearly fifty people have been injured, among 2030 01:32:26,080 --> 01:32:29,280 Speaker 24: those four children. So one child is in a serious 2031 01:32:29,320 --> 01:32:32,840 Speaker 24: condition in hospital along with one other who is also 2032 01:32:33,040 --> 01:32:37,439 Speaker 24: seriously injured. So police say they have arrested a fifty 2033 01:32:37,520 --> 01:32:40,719 Speaker 24: three year old white British man from the Liverpool area. 2034 01:32:41,120 --> 01:32:43,160 Speaker 24: But really, you know, there were tens of thousands of 2035 01:32:43,240 --> 01:32:46,320 Speaker 24: people out on the streets of Liverpool and this car 2036 01:32:47,200 --> 01:32:51,080 Speaker 24: appeared into this road. Witnesses say there was a confrontation 2037 01:32:51,439 --> 01:32:53,800 Speaker 24: with the driver, people banging on the windows of the car, 2038 01:32:53,920 --> 01:32:58,080 Speaker 24: then accelerated into the crowd. People you know, diving out 2039 01:32:58,120 --> 01:33:00,639 Speaker 24: of the way, trying to get their children at the way. 2040 01:33:00,640 --> 01:33:03,080 Speaker 24: It was very much a family event, tens of thousands 2041 01:33:03,479 --> 01:33:06,280 Speaker 24: of people out there. It was about holiday here in 2042 01:33:06,600 --> 01:33:10,639 Speaker 24: the UK yesterday, so just people there in a party mood, 2043 01:33:10,960 --> 01:33:14,080 Speaker 24: a moment of jubilation, but really it has turned into 2044 01:33:14,680 --> 01:33:20,559 Speaker 24: a truly horrific incident there. So yes, that's an ongoing 2045 01:33:20,640 --> 01:33:24,120 Speaker 24: situation really that the Prime Minister says the scenes are appalling. 2046 01:33:25,080 --> 01:33:27,840 Speaker 2: If it's not terrorism related, then what has gone on here? 2047 01:33:27,880 --> 01:33:31,439 Speaker 2: What's is motivation? Oh we don't know. 2048 01:33:31,640 --> 01:33:34,800 Speaker 24: I mean the police are being very tight lipped that 2049 01:33:34,960 --> 01:33:37,040 Speaker 24: what they don't want is there to be a spread 2050 01:33:37,040 --> 01:33:41,479 Speaker 24: of misinformation and they're actually urging people with social media 2051 01:33:41,680 --> 01:33:46,519 Speaker 24: footage to well not to share any video footage on 2052 01:33:46,720 --> 01:33:51,479 Speaker 24: social media. That they have ruled out terrorism and were 2053 01:33:51,640 --> 01:33:53,600 Speaker 24: very clear that they wanted to say that it was 2054 01:33:54,120 --> 01:33:59,200 Speaker 24: a British white man from the Liverpool area. So we 2055 01:33:59,360 --> 01:34:02,519 Speaker 24: really don't know, I mean, how the car got into 2056 01:34:02,640 --> 01:34:04,880 Speaker 24: that packed street in the first place. There would have 2057 01:34:04,920 --> 01:34:09,960 Speaker 24: been tight cornered off roads. So there will be a 2058 01:34:10,000 --> 01:34:13,719 Speaker 24: big investigation into how something like this has taken place. 2059 01:34:13,840 --> 01:34:18,400 Speaker 24: But indeed the emergency services were on the scene very quickly, 2060 01:34:18,640 --> 01:34:20,560 Speaker 24: as there are at these big events. There were a 2061 01:34:20,640 --> 01:34:25,360 Speaker 24: lot of police and emergency services there, so you know 2062 01:34:25,479 --> 01:34:26,920 Speaker 24: they were on the scene very quickly. 2063 01:34:27,120 --> 01:34:27,519 Speaker 4: Thanks all. 2064 01:34:27,880 --> 01:34:31,120 Speaker 2: Elizabeth. Russia's obviously denied, as it would any involvement with 2065 01:34:31,200 --> 01:34:34,360 Speaker 2: the asin tex on Keirstamer's property, But I mean, am 2066 01:34:34,400 --> 01:34:37,360 Speaker 2: I five treating this as seriously linked to Russia. 2067 01:34:38,840 --> 01:34:43,160 Speaker 24: Well over the weekend there were reports in the UK 2068 01:34:43,320 --> 01:34:47,960 Speaker 24: press that security officials were investigating the Kremlin's involvement in 2069 01:34:48,120 --> 01:34:50,960 Speaker 24: these arson attacks, which End probably would have told you about. 2070 01:34:51,400 --> 01:34:54,280 Speaker 24: Earlier this month there was a vehicle fire in Kentish 2071 01:34:54,439 --> 01:35:00,800 Speaker 24: Town and two properties in that either belong to the 2072 01:35:00,920 --> 01:35:07,000 Speaker 24: PM or former homes. So the Kremlin spokesperson has said 2073 01:35:07,160 --> 01:35:10,560 Speaker 24: that the claims are ludicrous and that London tends to 2074 01:35:10,640 --> 01:35:14,960 Speaker 24: suspect Russian involvement in all things bad things that are 2075 01:35:14,960 --> 01:35:18,519 Speaker 24: happening in Great Britain. But three Ukrainian born men have 2076 01:35:18,640 --> 01:35:22,000 Speaker 24: been charged in relation to the attacks. They deny the charges, 2077 01:35:22,400 --> 01:35:26,519 Speaker 24: but it's who knows. In this kind of world that 2078 01:35:26,560 --> 01:35:29,800 Speaker 24: we're living in. Certainly the police will be looking at 2079 01:35:29,920 --> 01:35:36,880 Speaker 24: all all kind of inquiries as to who could be 2080 01:35:37,040 --> 01:35:42,120 Speaker 24: involved into these arsonal attacks on the comperties link to 2081 01:35:42,600 --> 01:35:43,560 Speaker 24: p Stalman. 2082 01:35:43,400 --> 01:35:46,280 Speaker 2: Elizabeth, thank you appreciate. Elizabeth Kellahan, UK correspondent TOES. You 2083 01:35:46,320 --> 01:35:48,040 Speaker 2: think if the Russians behind it, they do a better 2084 01:35:48,120 --> 01:35:51,120 Speaker 2: job than these guys did here. The police stop going 2085 01:35:51,160 --> 01:35:53,920 Speaker 2: on about working for families. I'm a single father of 2086 01:35:54,080 --> 01:35:57,080 Speaker 2: three boys under five. I work forty hours a week 2087 01:35:57,120 --> 01:35:59,800 Speaker 2: and after that I pay eight hundred and fifty two 2088 01:35:59,800 --> 01:36:03,280 Speaker 2: dollars a week in childcare. My working for families really helps, 2089 01:36:03,600 --> 01:36:05,960 Speaker 2: or I could just go on the dole. I guess now, Michael, listen, 2090 01:36:06,479 --> 01:36:10,120 Speaker 2: this is a fair point, Okay, my problem when they 2091 01:36:10,280 --> 01:36:13,080 Speaker 2: rolled out when when it was so geez Helen, it 2092 01:36:13,200 --> 01:36:15,360 Speaker 2: was one of the worst. I love Helen. Helen was 2093 01:36:15,400 --> 01:36:17,880 Speaker 2: a great prime minister, but this just was an abomination 2094 01:36:18,720 --> 01:36:20,800 Speaker 2: when Alan did it. At the time, she will have 2095 01:36:20,880 --> 01:36:23,439 Speaker 2: had advice along the lines of Helen. If you roll 2096 01:36:23,520 --> 01:36:26,519 Speaker 2: out welfare for middle class, which is for working families. 2097 01:36:26,560 --> 01:36:29,519 Speaker 2: If you roll out welfare for working families, all that's 2098 01:36:29,560 --> 01:36:32,360 Speaker 2: going to happen is that the employer is not going 2099 01:36:32,439 --> 01:36:34,040 Speaker 2: to have to raise their wages by as much. It's 2100 01:36:34,040 --> 01:36:36,000 Speaker 2: not going to put pressure on employers to raise wages. 2101 01:36:36,040 --> 01:36:39,280 Speaker 2: And sure enough, that is exactly what's happened. It's essentially 2102 01:36:39,360 --> 01:36:42,880 Speaker 2: subsidizing your wage. So nowadays, of course Michael fair enough 2103 01:36:43,479 --> 01:36:45,320 Speaker 2: needs for the working for families in order to be 2104 01:36:45,400 --> 01:36:48,280 Speaker 2: able to raise three children. The reason he needs it 2105 01:36:48,400 --> 01:36:50,960 Speaker 2: is because his employer doesn't have the imperative now to 2106 01:36:51,080 --> 01:36:55,160 Speaker 2: pay him anymore. But if we unwound working for families slowly, slowly, 2107 01:36:55,280 --> 01:36:58,599 Speaker 2: slowly and said very explicitly to employers, you are going 2108 01:36:58,680 --> 01:37:00,400 Speaker 2: to have to step up here. You are going to 2109 01:37:00,439 --> 01:37:02,320 Speaker 2: have to pay these people. The government cannot keep on 2110 01:37:02,479 --> 01:37:06,760 Speaker 2: paying basically subsidizing your wage eventually. But I mean, you know, 2111 01:37:06,880 --> 01:37:09,200 Speaker 2: like it's obviously going to be that'll be tricky, tricky. 2112 01:37:09,439 --> 01:37:11,040 Speaker 2: It's easier to put something in then it is to 2113 01:37:11,160 --> 01:37:13,519 Speaker 2: unwined something going to be tricky as hell thing to do. 2114 01:37:13,880 --> 01:37:16,120 Speaker 2: But somehow we have to do this because we cannot 2115 01:37:16,120 --> 01:37:20,120 Speaker 2: beat Look as it, essentially, we cannot be subsidizing the 2116 01:37:20,280 --> 01:37:23,160 Speaker 2: income of families so that their employers don't have to 2117 01:37:23,600 --> 01:37:25,639 Speaker 2: That is what is going on here. So right now, Michael, 2118 01:37:25,680 --> 01:37:27,679 Speaker 2: of course you need the money because that's the system 2119 01:37:27,720 --> 01:37:29,679 Speaker 2: we've set up. But over time we need to figure 2120 01:37:29,720 --> 01:37:31,320 Speaker 2: out how your boss can pay you instead of us 2121 01:37:31,360 --> 01:37:34,360 Speaker 2: paying you.

Look, I don't hate that. 2127 01:37:49,840 --> 01:37:51,519 Speaker 2: I don't hate that as an idea, because what's our 2128 01:37:51,560 --> 01:37:54,000 Speaker 2: income tax rate become? Our company tax rate is twenty 2129 01:37:54,040 --> 01:37:56,120 Speaker 2: eight percent, isn't it? And you know, if you want 2130 01:37:56,160 --> 01:37:57,960 Speaker 2: to be competing with the likes of Singapore and stuff, 2131 01:37:57,960 --> 01:38:00,679 Speaker 2: they're on seventeen percent, Ireland's on fifteen sent by memory 2132 01:38:00,760 --> 01:38:03,240 Speaker 2: or something like that. We're priced up there, aren't we. 2133 01:38:03,720 --> 01:38:08,360 Speaker 2: So yeah, I don't hate this. Listen, I has l 2134 01:38:08,439 --> 01:38:10,800 Speaker 2: Brown been listening to the show? Is that what's going on? 2135 01:38:11,160 --> 01:38:13,720 Speaker 2: And he might well have been named Okay, Look, I 2136 01:38:13,880 --> 01:38:15,679 Speaker 2: don't like this from al Brown. 2137 01:38:16,160 --> 01:38:16,280 Speaker 1: El. 2138 01:38:16,600 --> 01:38:18,360 Speaker 2: You remember the other day we were having a chat 2139 01:38:18,439 --> 01:38:22,080 Speaker 2: about coffee and we said, in order of like decent 2140 01:38:22,160 --> 01:38:24,320 Speaker 2: cups of coffee, you're going to start with your espresso, right, 2141 01:38:24,360 --> 01:38:28,840 Speaker 2: your flat whites, your lattes, your mocaccino's, your cappuccinos, your machiato's, whatever, 2142 01:38:29,200 --> 01:38:33,200 Speaker 2: whatever whatever. That's at the top. Obviously at the bottom 2143 01:38:33,720 --> 01:38:36,000 Speaker 2: is your drip coffee. And you filter coffee right because 2144 01:38:36,040 --> 01:38:38,040 Speaker 2: that stuff is like if you can't get the paint 2145 01:38:38,080 --> 01:38:40,519 Speaker 2: off the concrete on your outside, you just put some 2146 01:38:40,600 --> 01:38:43,080 Speaker 2: of that on off it comes and in the middle 2147 01:38:43,560 --> 01:38:46,640 Speaker 2: its second place, surprisingly is a good cup of instant coffee. Right, 2148 01:38:46,680 --> 01:38:48,720 Speaker 2: but remember at the bottom is the drip coffee and 2149 01:38:49,000 --> 01:38:51,960 Speaker 2: the plunge of coffee. Because L Brown has come out 2150 01:38:52,000 --> 01:38:53,599 Speaker 2: and said we need to get into the drip coffee. 2151 01:38:54,000 --> 01:38:56,680 Speaker 2: He said espresso's too expensive. He was like, if you're 2152 01:38:56,680 --> 01:38:58,280 Speaker 2: paying seven dollars a cup of better be good. I 2153 01:38:58,400 --> 01:39:00,200 Speaker 2: agree with him on that. It's very often I pay 2154 01:39:00,280 --> 01:39:01,920 Speaker 2: that for a cup and it's a crappy cup, and 2155 01:39:01,960 --> 01:39:03,720 Speaker 2: I'd just rather have it at home, rather have my 2156 01:39:03,760 --> 01:39:07,240 Speaker 2: little instant at home. He says he's selling three dollar 2157 01:39:07,280 --> 01:39:10,880 Speaker 2: fifty cups of bottomless drip coffee and reckons it's not bad. 2158 01:39:10,920 --> 01:39:13,160 Speaker 2: And he reckons the modern product is not the crappy 2159 01:39:13,200 --> 01:39:17,760 Speaker 2: stuff that we remember from American hotel rooms. Now, I 2160 01:39:17,880 --> 01:39:19,240 Speaker 2: think what I need to do is go to our 2161 01:39:19,360 --> 01:39:21,080 Speaker 2: ale needs to invite me around, and I need to 2162 01:39:21,120 --> 01:39:25,280 Speaker 2: come to his house or his joint, you know, his outfit, 2163 01:39:25,400 --> 01:39:27,200 Speaker 2: because he does sell cups of coffee. I'll come and 2164 01:39:27,280 --> 01:39:29,400 Speaker 2: try it and then we'll make a judgment call on that. 2165 01:39:29,560 --> 01:39:32,000 Speaker 2: He reckons it gets you as high, that's his words, 2166 01:39:32,240 --> 01:39:34,760 Speaker 2: as high as an espresso as. 2167 01:39:35,160 --> 01:39:37,880 Speaker 25: Bone Thanks in harmony, Thugush Shruggish Bone to play us 2168 01:39:37,920 --> 01:39:40,160 Speaker 25: out tonight.
