1 00:00:02,960 --> 00:00:06,440 Speaker 1: Digging through the spins to find the real story. 2 00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:09,760 Speaker 2: Or it's Ryan Bridge on Heather Duper c Allen Drive 3 00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:11,280 Speaker 2: with One New Zealand. 4 00:00:11,480 --> 00:00:13,240 Speaker 1: Let's get connected and news talks. 5 00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:16,360 Speaker 3: That'd be good afternoon seven after four on your Monday. 6 00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:18,600 Speaker 3: Great to have your company coming up. Inside the next 7 00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:20,400 Speaker 3: quarter of an hour, We're due to have some breaking 8 00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:22,759 Speaker 3: news for you. This a verdict in the Mushroom Lady 9 00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:25,320 Speaker 3: trial over in Australia. Everyone's been following it. We will 10 00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:29,520 Speaker 3: have a verdict for you eminently. So Ian Taylor on 11 00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:33,680 Speaker 3: the COVID inquiry which kicks off today. We've also got 12 00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:38,360 Speaker 3: the story about ed beds versus maternity ward beds in 13 00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:42,120 Speaker 3: Wellington Hospital. Simeon Brown as our minister after six, Gavin 14 00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:44,680 Speaker 3: Gray is in the UK. All ahead on. 15 00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:46,760 Speaker 1: Drive Bryan Bridge. 16 00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:51,040 Speaker 3: So the question should just into rejourn return to the 17 00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:55,240 Speaker 3: country and face the COVID inquiry music The answer I 18 00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:59,440 Speaker 3: think must be yes. I confirm this morning on our 19 00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:02,760 Speaker 3: Herald Now program that the Royal Commission has reached out 20 00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:06,280 Speaker 3: to De sinder Adourn and they have asked her to 21 00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:11,080 Speaker 3: attend in August the case running. The show basically clammed 22 00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:13,640 Speaker 3: up after that, wouldn't give an answer about whether she 23 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 3: has even responded, whether she has lawyered up herself. But 24 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:19,800 Speaker 3: he did say that the only way to get out 25 00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:22,040 Speaker 3: of attending is if you're not in the country. They 26 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:25,640 Speaker 3: don't have jurisdiction. So the question is as a former 27 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 3: prime minister who wielded more power than Muldoon, more like 28 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:35,160 Speaker 3: wartime executive powers she had, as somebody who's always claimed 29 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:39,080 Speaker 3: their intentions were good, as somebody who's always claimed they 30 00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:43,840 Speaker 3: were in politics for the children. Remember that surely the 31 00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:47,160 Speaker 3: good of our tamadiki should be front and center of 32 00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:50,360 Speaker 3: the mind of one to cinder adoun when deciding whether 33 00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:53,000 Speaker 3: to front up and be honest at an inquiry like this, 34 00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 3: honest about what really went on behind closed doors, behind 35 00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 3: those ppe masks. Boris Johnson appeared at his country's inquiry inquiry, 36 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 3: twiddling his fingers and thumbs as he answered questions put 37 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:09,960 Speaker 3: before him. Isn't there a moral obligation to the people 38 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:13,600 Speaker 3: of New Zealand as well? Here they still live with 39 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 3: the consequences of decisions that she and her cabinet made. 40 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 3: She's making money off books of all sorts of things 41 00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 3: at the moment, and all power to her while many 42 00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 3: businesses here have never recovered from the lockdowns. Isn't a 43 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:33,760 Speaker 3: little truth telling in order? I was just one of 44 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:37,360 Speaker 3: a handful of interviewers who basically got a go at 45 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:40,519 Speaker 3: Cinda Adourn on a weekly basis during this time period. 46 00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 3: And I'm saving the best bits for a book one day, 47 00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 3: of course. But suffice to say, there was a lot 48 00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 3: of image and stage managing and controlling happening behind the 49 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 3: scenes that you just wouldn't believe. The problem for Jacinda 50 00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:59,280 Speaker 3: if she decides not to front is this. It's a 51 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:04,120 Speaker 3: question kiwis will be asking themselves what has she got 52 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:07,680 Speaker 3: to hide? Bridge, you're on news Talks there bib Wellington 53 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:10,840 Speaker 3: Hospital converting some maternity beds to ED beds in an 54 00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:15,119 Speaker 3: attempt to bolster the struggling emergency department. The change will 55 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:17,800 Speaker 3: bring the number of women's health wards down from four 56 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:21,880 Speaker 3: to three for a four month trial period. Allison Eddie 57 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:25,959 Speaker 3: is the chief executive at at College of Midwives. Good afternoon, 58 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 3: Good afternoon, Good to have you on the show, Allison. 59 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 3: So who's wanting the beds exactly? 60 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 4: Well, we understand that Wellington Hospital ED is under significant 61 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:42,080 Speaker 4: over crowding pressure and part of that pressure is because 62 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:45,080 Speaker 4: they can't move people through the service into admission into 63 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 4: medical beds, so they're hoping to create well the plan 64 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 4: or proposed plan, is to repurpose some of the women's 65 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 4: health beds I think it's on the fourth floor of 66 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 4: Wellington Hospital into medical beds, so really reducing the footprint 67 00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:00,800 Speaker 4: for the for that service. 68 00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 3: Overall, presumably there will be women who will fill some 69 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 3: of the health beds. I mean that it's not just 70 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 3: men taking over. But are they specific to women? 71 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,600 Speaker 4: No, no, that I think the beds on the fourth 72 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 4: floor at the moment are sort of gynecology maternity beds 73 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 4: Nico Boothing Sweet But the intention I believe is to 74 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:21,719 Speaker 4: take twelve of the beds which are currently allocated to 75 00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 4: gynecology and make those general medical beds so they could 76 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 4: be meant or woman obviously depending on the patients presenting in. 77 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:32,560 Speaker 3: The ed right, but not specialty beds. Are they hospital 78 00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 3: the hospitals is they're not full at the moment there 79 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:36,160 Speaker 3: are spare beds. 80 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:37,760 Speaker 1: Well. 81 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:40,119 Speaker 4: What we hear from our members in Wellington and also 82 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 4: the marest the Midwife's Union tell us that overall the 83 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:47,800 Speaker 4: maternity facility at Wellington Woman's is over one hundred percent occupancy, 84 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 4: So there might be spare beds today, but on a 85 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:55,159 Speaker 4: regular basis they're over capacity. And I think the other 86 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,920 Speaker 4: really important thing to really bear in mind is that 87 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:01,840 Speaker 4: maternity is like the ED of the maternity service. You know, 88 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:04,599 Speaker 4: it's an acute service. It can have unpredictable demand and 89 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 4: it needs capacity to receive admissions on a twenty four 90 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:09,839 Speaker 4: to seven basis, just like ED does. 91 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 3: See this and. 92 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 4: Wellington, Yeah, Wellington Hospital is actually a tertiary referral center 93 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:16,480 Speaker 4: for quite a lot of outlying provincial units. You know, 94 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,599 Speaker 4: it's serving a really large geographic area with you know, 95 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 4: many high risk, high risk patients that are referred in there. 96 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's interesting, Allison, because you're not the first person 97 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:29,080 Speaker 3: to come on from you know, you're with the College 98 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:31,120 Speaker 3: of Midwives, but not the first person to come on 99 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 3: from the sect of saying one thing and health is 100 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 3: saying another. So it's very hard for us to know 101 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:37,600 Speaker 3: unless we go into this hospital. I mean, you haven't 102 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:40,360 Speaker 3: been in there either. Who do we believe the midwives 103 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 3: who are there, or do we believe health THINGSED or what? 104 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,400 Speaker 4: Well, you know, the midwives are on at the front 105 00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:50,560 Speaker 4: line every day doing the work and telling us that 106 00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 4: the service is already over capacity. And what we're planning 107 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:57,480 Speaker 4: to do is use what are currently supposedly single rooms 108 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:02,000 Speaker 4: and make those double occupancy to so they can double 109 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 4: up mothers and babies in the same room. 110 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 3: So there will still be enough room, but it's just 111 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 3: that they'd be doubled up. 112 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 4: That's what they're telling us. 113 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:14,839 Speaker 3: Different story, isn't it. I mean, now you're talking about 114 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:18,720 Speaker 3: the comfortability of a hospital as opposed to the acute 115 00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:19,360 Speaker 3: need of it. 116 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,360 Speaker 4: Potentially, yes, but what our members are telling us that 117 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:26,200 Speaker 4: those single rooms are already used as double rooms from 118 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:27,920 Speaker 4: time to time, so that you know, it might look 119 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:30,160 Speaker 4: like they've got twenty beds, for example, but they've actually 120 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 4: got twenty four patients and so, you know, for example, 121 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:36,200 Speaker 4: so there will be more pressure on the service overall 122 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 4: because the beds are already over capacity. 123 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:42,720 Speaker 3: Ellison, appreciate your time this morning, this afternoon. Rather Ellison Eddie, 124 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 3: the Chief Executive New Zealand Royal College of Midwives making 125 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 3: the case for keeping them guyin no, thank you very much. 126 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:52,799 Speaker 3: We will bring you the update by the way from Australia. 127 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 3: We're expecting any moment now.

If 139 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 5: the mushroom verdict arrives. 140 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 3: Nothing is more interesting than sport, you know. That's my 141 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 3: official position. However, the bosses may make me do that. 142 00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:37,920 Speaker 3: All right now, first question for you what Raza will 143 00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:40,239 Speaker 3: obviously be making swell. Will he be making some changes 144 00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 3: and if he does weird as he needed to make changes? 145 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, he will, I think because he said he wants 146 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:46,600 Speaker 5: to give all thirty three guys in the squatter go 147 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:48,720 Speaker 5: plus the ones he's brought in his injury cover, so 148 00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:50,400 Speaker 5: he's going to have to make some changes. Also, no 149 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 5: Seva Reese this coming weekend. He is under HIA protocols 150 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:56,800 Speaker 5: and I get the feeling as well. Ryan Scott Barrett 151 00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 5: won't be there. He came off on Saturday with a 152 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 5: Dodgy R killer. He's at the media session today. Razor said, look, 153 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:05,360 Speaker 5: we've had scans and we'll let you know tomorrow with 154 00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 5: official announcement. I think you only officially announced something if 155 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:10,760 Speaker 5: he's not going to be there. So new captain and 156 00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 5: second row and new winger, and I just think a 157 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:15,200 Speaker 5: bit of a freshening here and there as well. It's 158 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:16,760 Speaker 5: a bit of a balance, you know. He wants to 159 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 5: find out about some guys in different positions, but also 160 00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:22,160 Speaker 5: wants to try and I guess they give everybody a 161 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 5: go and mix things up. But as far as what 162 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:26,600 Speaker 5: they need to improve on, they weren't great at the 163 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 5: breakdown on Saturday. They weren't great with their kick chase 164 00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:32,439 Speaker 5: game or under the high ball that France put up. 165 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 5: And as you know, and Wellington Ryiner can get a 166 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 5: bit swirly, a bit windy, a bit gusty at sky Stadium, 167 00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:40,199 Speaker 5: so he has a bit to work on as they 168 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 5: look ahead to test too. 169 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:44,600 Speaker 3: What about the junior tool Blacks finishing fourth at the 170 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 3: Under nineteen World Champs. How significant is that? 171 00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:50,560 Speaker 5: Really big?

Hey, an 186 00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:36,560 Speaker 3: interesting story about selfies coming out today and pilots. I 187 00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 3: don't know if you've seen on social media lately, but 188 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 3: pilots are the latest to join the trend of taking 189 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:44,120 Speaker 3: selfies on the job. And they do this because they 190 00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:46,520 Speaker 3: get lots and lots of followers, and that's what everybody 191 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:49,120 Speaker 3: in society wants these days, there's lots and lots of followers. 192 00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 3: So pilots taking selfies during flight, mid flight, ears side, 193 00:09:56,800 --> 00:10:00,320 Speaker 3: in flight, you name it, they're doing it. I been 194 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:05,600 Speaker 3: called out by the Airline Association industry associations. So one 195 00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:09,880 Speaker 3: got in trouble because their camera jammed up against the 196 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 3: flight controls. This is while they're flying a plane, jammed 197 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 3: up against the flight controls, causing a quote rapid descent 198 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 3: of the plane which injured passengers. So there you go, 199 00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:24,720 Speaker 3: selfie equals injuries. Another was caught with their camera. This 200 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 3: is a whistleblower that did this. One caught. There's a 201 00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 3: British pilot making a selfie style video on the ramp 202 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:34,840 Speaker 3: while performing safety inspections. Now these safety inspections are, as 203 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 3: you can guess by the title, quite important. They include taxing, 204 00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 3: entering the runway, landing, all these sorts of things. So 205 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:45,320 Speaker 3: taking a selfie video while you were trying to make 206 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 3: sure the plane is safe not a good idea, and 207 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:52,400 Speaker 3: their Airline industry associations are warning them to stop doing 208 00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:57,439 Speaker 3: this because it's done right.

A pastor and Wilkinson, who was the 343 00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:40,919 Speaker 14: sole survivor of the four victims. He always claimed Patterson 344 00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:43,640 Speaker 14: served the lunch to her guests on four tan colored plates, 345 00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:46,440 Speaker 14: but used a gray plate for herself. She always refuted 346 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:49,760 Speaker 14: those particular claims with her defense team saying that it 347 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:52,679 Speaker 14: was a tragic accident that she had told a series 348 00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:55,280 Speaker 14: of lies to her family and authorities because she panicked 349 00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:58,199 Speaker 14: about her lunch guests falling ill. She always maintained she 350 00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:00,480 Speaker 14: never deliberately put death cap mushrooms. 351 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:01,520 Speaker 9: In the beef Wellington meal. 352 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:04,200 Speaker 14: But now, during that verdict, as it was read down, 353 00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 14: guilty as I said, there on the murder of the 354 00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:08,680 Speaker 14: former in laws Don and Gale Pattison, her sister Heather, 355 00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:11,320 Speaker 14: and the attempted murder of Head, his husband and Wilkinson. 356 00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 14: She was seen blinking a lot, breathing deeply as that 357 00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:16,840 Speaker 14: jury found her guilty on all the charges. She kept 358 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:19,200 Speaker 14: her eyes open and peeled on that twelve person jury 359 00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 14: as they left the room. 360 00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:21,600 Speaker 9: And she'll now face. 361 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:23,879 Speaker 14: A sentence, Ryan, of up to life in prison, and 362 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:25,720 Speaker 14: she'll return to the court for a pre senate's hearing 363 00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:28,879 Speaker 14: later this year. But yes, breaking news, it's taken a 364 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:31,280 Speaker 14: while for that jury to deliberate. It's taken a good 365 00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:33,760 Speaker 14: week in a couple of days after a nine week trial, 366 00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 14: guilty on all three counts, and she's facing life behind bars, 367 00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:39,480 Speaker 14: which carries a maximum sentence of twenty years. 368 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:41,440 Speaker 3: Holly, are you surprised. 369 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:42,240 Speaker 13: Not at all. 370 00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:44,919 Speaker 14: I'm more surprised that it took so long, Ryan for 371 00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:47,720 Speaker 14: the jury to reach this guilty verdict. Having said that, 372 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:50,040 Speaker 14: it was a nine week trial, so if you're going 373 00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:52,520 Speaker 14: through everything line by line, you can probably understand why 374 00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:55,159 Speaker 14: it took the jury, what's seven or eight days to 375 00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:58,240 Speaker 14: actually come back with a guilty verdict, but unanimous and 376 00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:01,280 Speaker 14: on all of the charges guilty guilt guilty and attempted 377 00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:04,040 Speaker 14: murder guilty as well, So she'll have to prepare for 378 00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:06,800 Speaker 14: that pre sentencing hearing. And to be honest, I think 379 00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:08,960 Speaker 14: there's a lot of relief in the country, Ryan, I 380 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:10,680 Speaker 14: think we've all been holding our breath thinking it was 381 00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 14: going this way, and now we got the verdict to 382 00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:13,080 Speaker 14: match it. 383 00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:16,760 Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean, as you said, I feel the same way. 384 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 3: Not surprised with what's happened, but surprised at the length 385 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:22,080 Speaker 3: of time it took to get here. Hey, what's going 386 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:24,520 Speaker 3: on with this anti hate task force being set up? 387 00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:26,840 Speaker 3: After week into text and an Israeli restaurant. 388 00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:27,960 Speaker 9: Yeah, so a. 389 00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:30,679 Speaker 14: Man was charged over that arson attack on that synagogue 390 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:33,360 Speaker 14: in Melbourne, z SI forced twenty people inside the flee. 391 00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:35,399 Speaker 9: So the Victorian Premier tot Age. 392 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:37,200 Speaker 14: Just need to Allen's announced a new anti hate task 393 00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:39,239 Speaker 14: for something which the Prime Minister was ruling out over 394 00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:42,080 Speaker 14: the weekend and said it wasn't necessary. But the Victorian 395 00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:44,440 Speaker 14: Premier says it is on that attack and several other 396 00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:46,840 Speaker 14: anti Semitic incidents over the weekend. So it'll hold its 397 00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:50,639 Speaker 14: first meeting and discuss increasing police powers and enforcing anti 398 00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:51,720 Speaker 14: vilification laws. 399 00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:54,840 Speaker 9: That meeting is expected to take place later this week, 400 00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:56,679 Speaker 9: if not the weekend. You've had the. 401 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:00,679 Speaker 14: Premier of Victoria visiting a synagogue morning. You've even got 402 00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:04,520 Speaker 14: the Opposition leader Susan Lee. She's also been offering her 403 00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:06,800 Speaker 14: support to the Prime Minister Anthony alber Easy to try 404 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 14: and stamp out this anti semitism. As the PM said 405 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:11,640 Speaker 14: over the weekend, there is no place for this in Australia. 406 00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:13,320 Speaker 14: But I think a lot of us in this country 407 00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:15,919 Speaker 14: at the moment Ryan are just wondering what's going on 408 00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:18,719 Speaker 14: in Victoria. Why is Victoria almost a bit of an 409 00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:22,800 Speaker 14: outlier in terms of not just what's happening with anti Semitism, 410 00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:23,320 Speaker 14: but a lot. 411 00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 9: Of criminal activity. 412 00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:27,320 Speaker 14: There's a lot of hate stemming out of the southern 413 00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:30,240 Speaker 14: capital of Australia might be the sporting capital in Melbourne, 414 00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:33,400 Speaker 14: but why is it that Victoria is embroiled in all 415 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:36,360 Speaker 14: of this anti Semitism. It just seems to not sort 416 00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:38,080 Speaker 14: of fit with the fabric of what our country is 417 00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:40,640 Speaker 14: at the moment. So there's some pretty deep questions being 418 00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:43,320 Speaker 14: asked in Australia today and whether or not they're the 419 00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:45,880 Speaker 14: government's too soft, whether they've gone to woke, whether they've 420 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:50,000 Speaker 14: just got a toughen up and have a no tolerance policy. 421 00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:52,280 Speaker 14: So I think a lot of questions are being asked 422 00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:54,240 Speaker 14: of the state government in Victoria in particular. 423 00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:57,399 Speaker 3: Absolutely only very quickly before we go. This woman who's 424 00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:00,399 Speaker 3: had her arm bitton at the Queensland Zoo by a line. 425 00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:02,399 Speaker 3: Was she and she was in the cage, wasn't she? 426 00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 3: But not there as a guest. 427 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:07,600 Speaker 9: No, she suffered that severe injury. 428 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:10,800 Speaker 14: She was watching the keepers working in the carnival enclosure. 429 00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:13,479 Speaker 14: So I don't know about you, but I don't even 430 00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 14: want to get too close to a line. It's a 431 00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 14: terrible it's a terrible situation, isn't It's been bitten by 432 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:20,639 Speaker 14: a lion. So she's going to be going into further 433 00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,480 Speaker 14: surgery today. It's understood she has lost an arm, but 434 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:27,760 Speaker 14: she wasn't quite in the enclosure, but she was watching. 435 00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:29,720 Speaker 9: Those zoo keepers with the lions. Maybe just step back 436 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:30,159 Speaker 9: a bit. 437 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 3: We have to stay out of the cage. Hey, thanks, 438 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 3: olly good to have you on the show. Olie Pederson 439 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:39,720 Speaker 3: six PR Perth Live presenter, just confirming that guilty verdict 440 00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 3: for Aaron Patterson on all counts over in Australia. It 441 00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:46,200 Speaker 3: is eighteen minutes away from five o'clock. Now, I would 442 00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:47,679 Speaker 3: just never get in a cage or close to a 443 00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:51,760 Speaker 3: cage with a lion or anything that looks scary. I mean, 444 00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:54,639 Speaker 3: there are some people I wouldn't get in a cage with, 445 00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:59,600 Speaker 3: you know it alone lions. Anyway, as I said earlier, 446 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:04,240 Speaker 3: I think not surprising, but still sad. Eighteen minutes away 447 00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:07,639 Speaker 3: from five. Thomas Coglin, we're going to talk about Tabati Mali. 448 00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:11,040 Speaker 3: They have a candidate for the Tammocky Makoto seat. Will 449 00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:13,640 Speaker 3: reveal all next on news Talk said, b's just gone 450 00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:17,280 Speaker 3: quarter to five, So we have a result in Aaron Patterson, 451 00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:20,280 Speaker 3: the Mushroom Lady trial over in Australia. Guilty guilty, guilty, guilty, 452 00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:23,200 Speaker 3: guilty on all counts. And I said to Laura, I said, 453 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:24,720 Speaker 3: is it too really? Do you think to ask for 454 00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:27,960 Speaker 3: suggestions on what the Netflix show will be called? Because 455 00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:30,480 Speaker 3: inevitably there'll be a Netflix Apparently it's already been announced. 456 00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 3: It's already the trial has just got a guilty verdict. 457 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:36,840 Speaker 3: The Netflix series has already been announced and they've called 458 00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:39,240 Speaker 3: it toxic. So I thought it was a bit lame, 459 00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:41,560 Speaker 3: so I'm just putting it out there. If anyone's got 460 00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:45,040 Speaker 3: any can go one better on toxic, then nine two 461 00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:47,640 Speaker 3: ninety two is the number to text. I was sort 462 00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:50,040 Speaker 3: of thinking maybe something like, because it's Australian but you'll 463 00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:52,720 Speaker 3: have an international audience. Maybe just you know, the front 464 00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:55,560 Speaker 3: cover of the DVD or the movie or whatever is 465 00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:59,119 Speaker 3: Aaron Patterson at the table and no one else and 466 00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:05,440 Speaker 3: it just says, where the bloody how are you? It's 467 00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:06,280 Speaker 3: fourteen away. 468 00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:09,879 Speaker 2: From five Politics with Centrics Credit, check your customers and 469 00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:10,840 Speaker 2: get payments certainty. 470 00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:14,320 Speaker 3: Thomas Cogman's with us in parliament. Heye Thomas out afternoon, Ryan, 471 00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:18,119 Speaker 3: Good afternoon. So we have a former broadcaster in the running. 472 00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:20,520 Speaker 3: I did say earlier. Is the candidate but not yet 473 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:22,000 Speaker 3: the candidate for to party? 474 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:27,960 Speaker 15: Marty's Thomakimikodo see yeah or any Caipito's formerly of news Hub. 475 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,600 Speaker 15: I thinks she left that role in twenty twenty three. 476 00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:34,280 Speaker 15: She was fronting one of the afternoon shows. Thinks she 477 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:37,040 Speaker 15: did the nation a bit as well, so so some 478 00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:44,040 Speaker 15: political experience there. The nominations closed this afternoon, so you know, 479 00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:46,320 Speaker 15: if if you're looking to throw your head in the ring. 480 00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:50,240 Speaker 15: You don't have much time, and we'll get where we're 481 00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:54,159 Speaker 15: We're thinking we'll get a confirmed candidate by the end 482 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:58,240 Speaker 15: of the week. For Party, Marti Labor has, as I 483 00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:01,760 Speaker 15: understand it, a quite a complic catered constitutional process for this, 484 00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:04,119 Speaker 15: So they are actually waiting for the Prime Minister to 485 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:07,920 Speaker 15: set the date for the by election, and once he 486 00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:12,159 Speaker 15: does that then their constitutional cogs can start turning and 487 00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 15: they can start selecting a candidate as well. I do 488 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:16,359 Speaker 15: think that they will be running a candidate. There had 489 00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 15: been some speculation that they wouldn't out of respect to 490 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:22,879 Speaker 15: the fact that the former MP Taka tash Camp had 491 00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:23,400 Speaker 15: passed away. 492 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:25,640 Speaker 3: I think she's going to be really hard to beat 493 00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:28,320 Speaker 3: for two reasons. One, they've got to party. Marty's got 494 00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:31,880 Speaker 3: their ground game going strong, and they're not starting from 495 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:35,960 Speaker 3: a standing position. But also alread Any I've worked very 496 00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:40,679 Speaker 3: closely with her for many years, is an incredibly smart, funny, 497 00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:45,560 Speaker 3: you know, graceful. She's quite a stoic person, lots of money. 498 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:48,560 Speaker 3: Won't get down and play dirty in the sampit or 499 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:51,400 Speaker 3: get riled by Winston when he yails out across the house. 500 00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:53,879 Speaker 3: That's not her Emo, So she would be very different 501 00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:55,439 Speaker 3: to Party Marty MP. 502 00:25:55,600 --> 00:26:00,320 Speaker 15: I think yeah, And I mean I haven't worked and 503 00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:04,520 Speaker 15: I can't say claim to know her particularly well, but 504 00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:06,959 Speaker 15: I do think as well. You know that the Electric 505 00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:09,879 Speaker 15: obviously the race was lost last time Penny here and 506 00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:12,639 Speaker 15: they lost it by forty two votes. Obviously, so Labor, 507 00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:14,720 Speaker 15: you know, if you're looking at the numbers, you'd have 508 00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:17,280 Speaker 15: to say, well, Labor is within striking distance of taking 509 00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:19,680 Speaker 15: it back. But when you think about it, you know 510 00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:21,800 Speaker 15: twenty twenty three, all the things that have happened since 511 00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 15: twenty twenty three, You've had the toyto t tidity movement, 512 00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:29,480 Speaker 15: the whole Tree Principal's Bill controversy come up, and to 513 00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:32,560 Speaker 15: Party Maori has been prosecuting that day after day, week 514 00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:35,960 Speaker 15: after week. They've really attached themselves to this, you know, 515 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:39,080 Speaker 15: every issue that is popping up in Maori, in the 516 00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:42,200 Speaker 15: Maori world, they've attached themselves too. So I think that 517 00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:45,119 Speaker 15: the context of this race is completely different to the 518 00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:47,640 Speaker 15: context of twenty twenty three. But you know, could be wrong. 519 00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 15: These these electric races go and a number of different ways. 520 00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:57,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, they do. Hey, this Select Committee for what Seymour's Bill, 521 00:26:57,280 --> 00:27:00,200 Speaker 3: the Regulatory Standards Bill has begun. What are we and 522 00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:00,600 Speaker 3: so far? 523 00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:04,920 Speaker 15: Yeah, it's it's it has been pretty negative today so 524 00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:08,040 Speaker 15: and most of the written submissions were were negative too. 525 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:12,520 Speaker 15: We had Jeffrey Palmer, the former Prime Minister, and today 526 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:16,040 Speaker 15: an interesting submission from him. He he made the point 527 00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:21,720 Speaker 15: that it is a very the sort of the work 528 00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:25,080 Speaker 15: to actually implement this bill. And I think he had 529 00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:30,040 Speaker 15: the number eleven hundred statutes that that that are an 530 00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:31,199 Speaker 15: application in New Zealand. 531 00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:33,480 Speaker 7: And the idea of of of. 532 00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:39,080 Speaker 15: Of regulating the regulation when there is so much regulation 533 00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:43,960 Speaker 15: is an enormous amount of work, a terrific amount of 534 00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:46,160 Speaker 15: extra work, is that is what he sort of said, 535 00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:49,440 Speaker 15: because there's just there is just so much. And the 536 00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:51,280 Speaker 15: other sort of thing I guess is that it is 537 00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:54,440 Speaker 15: interesting to see that a lot of the opposition to 538 00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:58,200 Speaker 15: the bill there is the sense that some of it 539 00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:01,000 Speaker 15: is fighting a straw man. I mean, David Seymour is 540 00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:05,399 Speaker 15: getting quite angry, calling his well perhaps not angry, but 541 00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:12,000 Speaker 15: his Regulatory Standards Bill derangement syndrome. There is the sort 542 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:15,240 Speaker 15: of sense that some of the criticism is that this 543 00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:18,760 Speaker 15: is a somewhat constitutional piece of legislation that has quite 544 00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:22,879 Speaker 15: a powerful application that almost would be like a Supreme 545 00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:24,920 Speaker 15: Court in the United States, that it could strike down 546 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:27,919 Speaker 15: the will of a government if it wish to. There 547 00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:30,960 Speaker 15: has been that kind of floating around the bill, that allegation, 548 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:35,000 Speaker 15: which is incorrect. It doesn't actually have that power, which 549 00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:37,680 Speaker 15: of course begs the question what is the point of 550 00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:40,240 Speaker 15: this bill? And that is sort of one of the 551 00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:43,640 Speaker 15: criticisms being made by Labor's Duncan Web that it actually 552 00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:46,360 Speaker 15: isn't as powerful as some of its critics think it 553 00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:50,000 Speaker 15: to be. But that, of course the question is why bother. 554 00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:52,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's an interesting one, isn't that. On the one Han, 555 00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:54,200 Speaker 3: you got people saying this will be the end of 556 00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:55,800 Speaker 3: the world and the other people saying it will have 557 00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:58,320 Speaker 3: no effect on the world whatsoever. So who do we believe? 558 00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:00,560 Speaker 3: Thank you very much for that. That is Times Cogland, 559 00:29:00,600 --> 00:29:03,280 Speaker 3: New Zealand Herald political editor with us from Wellington nine 560 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 3: away from five brig.

We've put out fully costed 575 00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:55,120 Speaker 16: alternative budget every year we've been in opposition, never had 576 00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:56,720 Speaker 16: a problem, so there's no need for this thing. On 577 00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:59,160 Speaker 16: the other hand, do you want the bureaucracy, who, by 578 00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:00,640 Speaker 16: the way, gets stuff all the time? 579 00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:01,360 Speaker 3: You know, just because you. 580 00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:03,080 Speaker 16: Get a job at a government department doesn't mean you're 581 00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:05,840 Speaker 16: suddenly right about everything. Do you want them to effectively 582 00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:08,640 Speaker 16: be the gatekeepers to the policies in the election when 583 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:10,840 Speaker 16: the whole point of the election is to hold them accountal? 584 00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:12,680 Speaker 3: On the first play, would we pay for stuff that 585 00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:15,880 Speaker 3: you guys as political parties are paying for yourself?

The question should just Cinda Adourn 590 00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:32,120 Speaker 3: return to New Zealand and face the music at the 591 00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:35,120 Speaker 3: COVID inquiry. It's taking place in Auckland at the moment, 592 00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:38,120 Speaker 3: well all over the country. And I asked the case 593 00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:41,720 Speaker 3: running the show today this morning on Herold Now, I said, look, 594 00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:44,360 Speaker 3: have you asked Cinda a Dune to come? He said, yes, 595 00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:48,840 Speaker 3: we have asked her to attend and don't know yet 596 00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:51,200 Speaker 3: what the answer is, whether she's lawyered up, what's happening. 597 00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:53,800 Speaker 3: But my question to you is do you think she 598 00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:57,120 Speaker 3: should She should come. They can't force her if she's 599 00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:59,200 Speaker 3: outside and this is rink, it's tricky. If she's outside 600 00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:02,120 Speaker 3: in New Zealand can't to come. You've got to ask 601 00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:05,440 Speaker 3: and hope that she will comply. But doesn't have to. 602 00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:08,840 Speaker 3: They have asked, and we don't know where that's sitting 603 00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:11,720 Speaker 3: at yet, but hopefully she will. Because there are questions 604 00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:15,600 Speaker 3: that people want answers to. Now, question that everyone wants 605 00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:17,840 Speaker 3: to know is are you cool or not, and that's 606 00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:20,560 Speaker 3: the topic of conversation for our panel after five point 607 00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:23,480 Speaker 3: thirty this evening. There are six characteristics and I'll just 608 00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:25,120 Speaker 3: leave them with you before we get to the panel. 609 00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:27,080 Speaker 3: By the way, none of the people on the panel 610 00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:30,600 Speaker 3: are cool. I can't even remember their names right now. 611 00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:32,960 Speaker 3: But that's so uncool are they that I don't recall 612 00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:39,840 Speaker 3: them anyway?

That's the gist of it. 616 00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:54,800 Speaker 3: It's Morris Williamson and Joseph Bucgany. I got that right. Yeah, see, 617 00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:56,200 Speaker 3: neither of them coll. 618 00:31:57,560 --> 00:31:57,600 Speaker 7: No. 619 00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:00,480 Speaker 3: Actually, Josie, you would have to say, is pretty cool. 620 00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:02,440 Speaker 3: She's out there doing stuff in the world on her own, 621 00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:05,840 Speaker 3: quite autonomous.

You know, 659 00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:52,760 Speaker 12: there's been one hundred and twenty five pieces of evidence 660 00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:54,920 Speaker 12: that have been put forward to them that had to 661 00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:59,080 Speaker 12: analyze an eighty six page chronology of all the testimony 662 00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:01,680 Speaker 12: it's happened to in the past ten weeks, and so 663 00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:05,600 Speaker 12: as you can imagine, a really big responsibility for this 664 00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:06,520 Speaker 12: jury to get it right. 665 00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:08,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, and they've certainly come to a decision, though it 666 00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:11,960 Speaker 3: took them a while. There were a few slam dunk arguments. 667 00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:14,000 Speaker 3: You know, there was a different colored plates, there was 668 00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:18,000 Speaker 3: the throwing the dehydrator away in the jury obviously finding 669 00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 3: this stuff pretty convincing. 670 00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:25,080 Speaker 12: Oh, absolutely, yes, that's that's right. So Nanette Rodgers for 671 00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:30,080 Speaker 12: the prosecution essentially based the case on what she called 672 00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:35,080 Speaker 12: the four deceptions, the four core deceptions that Aaron Patterson 673 00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:39,960 Speaker 12: took part in in what ultimately was a sustained cover up, 674 00:35:40,040 --> 00:35:44,520 Speaker 12: the first of course, being about lying about having cancer. 675 00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:48,640 Speaker 12: And that is essentially what Nannette Rodgers said Aaron Patterson 676 00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:52,160 Speaker 12: did to law her family in to that lunch on 677 00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:56,479 Speaker 12: July twenty nine, twenty twenty three. She said that Aaron 678 00:35:56,520 --> 00:36:00,120 Speaker 12: Patterson tried to gain sympathy in that act and and 679 00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:02,520 Speaker 12: as well as law of them really just get them 680 00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:06,920 Speaker 12: all there in one spot. Now. The second deception that 681 00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:10,080 Speaker 12: she talked about, as you mentioned, was where the mushrooms 682 00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:10,640 Speaker 12: came from? 683 00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:10,879 Speaker 1: Now? 684 00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:14,880 Speaker 12: During her testimony, and I'll remind you, Aaron Patterson herself 685 00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:17,960 Speaker 12: took the stand, which she didn't need to for eight 686 00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:22,080 Speaker 12: days in the witness box, and she talked about she 687 00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:24,520 Speaker 12: was asked about rather where the mushrooms came from. 688 00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:24,759 Speaker 17: Now. 689 00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:28,720 Speaker 12: Sally and Atkinson was the health official that was tasked 690 00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:34,120 Speaker 12: with investigating this particular this particular part of the story 691 00:36:34,239 --> 00:36:37,480 Speaker 12: after the lunch, and what she said in her testimony 692 00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:40,160 Speaker 12: was that Aaron Patterson was really hard to get a 693 00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:42,719 Speaker 12: hold of that. When she did get a hold of her. 694 00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:46,479 Speaker 12: Her story kept changing, and you might remember she said 695 00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:51,279 Speaker 12: she gave multiple accounts of where these mushrooms came from, 696 00:36:51,640 --> 00:36:55,719 Speaker 12: at one point mentioning an Asian grosser couldn't mention it 697 00:36:55,840 --> 00:37:00,120 Speaker 12: by name, and then changing it to a you know, 698 00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:03,680 Speaker 12: a supermarket, a woollies of sorts. And so the problem 699 00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:06,680 Speaker 12: with that was what Sally Anne Atkinson talked about in 700 00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:11,440 Speaker 12: the trial was that it created, you know, a public 701 00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:15,719 Speaker 12: health scare, and so they were worried that there were 702 00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:18,880 Speaker 12: potentially these mushrooms in the supermarkets that were getting other 703 00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:22,440 Speaker 12: people sick, and so that was really part of her testimony. 704 00:37:22,719 --> 00:37:26,600 Speaker 12: The third, as you also mentioned, is the third dehydrator. 705 00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:29,560 Speaker 12: So initially Aaron Patterson told police she ever owned one 706 00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:32,600 Speaker 12: and then later admitted to dumping it after there was 707 00:37:32,680 --> 00:37:38,240 Speaker 12: evidence presented in court of CCTV of a woman dumping 708 00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:41,919 Speaker 12: a food dehydrator in court, which by the way, later 709 00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:43,960 Speaker 12: tested for deathcat mushrooms. 710 00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:44,200 Speaker 18: Yeah. 711 00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:46,799 Speaker 3: Never a great look is it? As these a fascinating 712 00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:50,160 Speaker 3: case that we have followed closely, just very quickly. How 713 00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:51,080 Speaker 3: long could she get. 714 00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:55,400 Speaker 12: I mean this could be life in prison. So with that, 715 00:37:55,600 --> 00:37:59,120 Speaker 12: I think it's around forty five to fifty years and 716 00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:02,680 Speaker 12: in Victory Warrior. So but look, we just don't know 717 00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:06,879 Speaker 12: what could happen. Then might be an appeals process. Their 718 00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:11,160 Speaker 12: court is going to convene tomorrow and then we'll find 719 00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:14,600 Speaker 12: out what happens after that, whether there's any when sentencing 720 00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:17,000 Speaker 12: could be And of course I'll remind you as well 721 00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:19,560 Speaker 12: that is of course when the defense will come out 722 00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:22,120 Speaker 12: and really make a case for what kind of sentence 723 00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:23,160 Speaker 12: Aaron Patterson will get. 724 00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:26,400 Speaker 3: Because these also seen One News Australia correspondent Time twelve 725 00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:30,000 Speaker 3: after five, Ryan Bridge, Part two of the COVID inquiry 726 00:38:30,080 --> 00:38:32,480 Speaker 3: in a cinema near you. This is the big Royal 727 00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:35,880 Speaker 3: commission underway. This phase of the inquiry looks at Lockdown's 728 00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:40,200 Speaker 3: vaccine mandates, all the really interesting stuff, terrible stuff, but 729 00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:42,640 Speaker 3: interesting stuff. This morning I caught up with the inquiry 730 00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:46,400 Speaker 3: chair Grant Ellingworth's case and I asked him on Herald 731 00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:49,920 Speaker 3: Now whether former Prime Minister to Cinder a Dune will 732 00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:52,640 Speaker 3: speak to the inquiry. At any point you'll ask just 733 00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:55,080 Speaker 3: Cinder a Dune to come. We will ask a number 734 00:38:55,120 --> 00:38:57,600 Speaker 3: of people to come, including to Cinda a Durn. Well, 735 00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:01,480 Speaker 3: we haven't formulated the final list. Why wouldn't you put 736 00:39:01,480 --> 00:39:02,960 Speaker 3: her on this, she made all the big calls. 737 00:39:03,120 --> 00:39:07,640 Speaker 7: Well, there are issues in relation to our powers when 738 00:39:07,719 --> 00:39:09,600 Speaker 7: people are out of the country, for example. 739 00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:12,440 Speaker 3: Ah, so you've got to be in the country for 740 00:39:12,520 --> 00:39:14,920 Speaker 3: the jurisdiction to stick. If you're not, it doesn't. So 741 00:39:15,040 --> 00:39:17,800 Speaker 3: Ian Taylor's written, well, just a few open letters to 742 00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:19,880 Speaker 3: the prime minister, former prime minister in his time, and 743 00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:24,399 Speaker 3: he's with me this evening. Good evening, How are you good? 744 00:39:24,440 --> 00:39:26,359 Speaker 3: Thank you, thanks for being with me. Do you think 745 00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:30,359 Speaker 3: that just under Adurn should get the call up? Take 746 00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:30,920 Speaker 3: the call up? 747 00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:34,600 Speaker 18: I mean, I think it would be wonderful if she did. 748 00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:40,640 Speaker 18: I mean it would perhaps reinforce the concept that, you know, 749 00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:44,120 Speaker 18: everything she did was to be kind, to be part 750 00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:46,960 Speaker 18: of the team of five million. And this is the 751 00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:48,960 Speaker 18: time for the team of five million to come together 752 00:39:49,480 --> 00:39:52,040 Speaker 18: to figure out, you know, how we deal to this 753 00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:55,320 Speaker 18: better next time, what went wrong, and to answer some 754 00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:58,440 Speaker 18: of the really really big questions that have never been addressed. 755 00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:01,400 Speaker 3: Do you think people want answers or do you think 756 00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:03,200 Speaker 3: people want apologies or scalps? 757 00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:11,000 Speaker 18: I think, you know, if I look at the feedback 758 00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:15,440 Speaker 18: that I'm seeing on my last open letter, I mean, 759 00:40:15,480 --> 00:40:18,880 Speaker 18: there are people screaming for scalps, screaming for my scalp, 760 00:40:19,280 --> 00:40:23,160 Speaker 18: screaming for hers. One of the things I think we 761 00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:25,839 Speaker 18: do far too much of is yell at each other 762 00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:28,919 Speaker 18: in New Zealand. And you know, we've got to stop 763 00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:32,279 Speaker 18: that yelling. But somewhere along the line there is a 764 00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:37,759 Speaker 18: line to be drawn. And I am very comfortable with 765 00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:40,880 Speaker 18: what I wrote. It took me a long time to 766 00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:45,160 Speaker 18: do it. I thought very hard about it. But as 767 00:40:45,200 --> 00:40:49,279 Speaker 18: I watched the PR machinery kind of arrive in New 768 00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:54,160 Speaker 18: Zealand for the for the memoir, I could not forget 769 00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:56,920 Speaker 18: the voices of those who had called me while I 770 00:40:57,120 --> 00:41:01,000 Speaker 18: was arguing for different ways of doing this, and the 771 00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:04,640 Speaker 18: families who kid couldn't get home, my friend Mike Steadman 772 00:41:04,680 --> 00:41:07,600 Speaker 18: who was dying of cancer and couldn't get his gwend 773 00:41:07,640 --> 00:41:11,080 Speaker 18: kids back. I mean, there were thousands of those stories 774 00:41:11,680 --> 00:41:16,480 Speaker 18: and we had offered a solution and it wasn't taken up. C. 775 00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:20,359 Speaker 3: Taylor, Animation Research Managing Director, appreciate your time. A writer 776 00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:23,480 Speaker 3: of many letters to our former Prime Minister, who will 777 00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:28,680 Speaker 3: likely be invited whether she comes to the Royal Commission, 778 00:41:28,760 --> 00:41:33,520 Speaker 3: the COVID Commission of Inquiry, very different question quarter past five, 779 00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:36,520 Speaker 3: you're on news talks, there'd be still to con well 780 00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:38,920 Speaker 3: loads more. Actually, we're going to talk about this very 781 00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:41,360 Speaker 3: strange thing that's happening in the UK where people are 782 00:41:41,440 --> 00:41:47,520 Speaker 3: being bought purchased brand new cars by the taxpayer. How 783 00:41:47,560 --> 00:41:49,719 Speaker 3: do you get a brand new car? Well, there's a 784 00:41:49,800 --> 00:41:52,160 Speaker 3: secret word and they were giving them out. You know, 785 00:41:52,440 --> 00:41:55,120 Speaker 3: thousands of these things. It's not just a couple, thousands 786 00:41:55,200 --> 00:41:57,400 Speaker 3: of these things that come in your way in a 787 00:41:57,480 --> 00:41:59,840 Speaker 3: few moments. Also, the golf course in Auckland that everyone's 788 00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:03,480 Speaker 3: with flood needed to be made into a wet floodplain. 789 00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:06,600 Speaker 3: Well we have a result there too. That's next us 790 00:42:06,680 --> 00:42:10,319 Speaker 3: talk said be It's five eighteen. Takapuna Golf Course has 791 00:42:10,400 --> 00:42:13,439 Speaker 3: been thrown a lifeline All con Council today announcing it'll 792 00:42:13,480 --> 00:42:17,080 Speaker 3: develop the golf course into a wetland but the area 793 00:42:17,320 --> 00:42:20,800 Speaker 3: could still house a redesigned golf course in the future. 794 00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:23,680 Speaker 3: There have been widespread protests you'll know about these against 795 00:42:23,719 --> 00:42:27,240 Speaker 3: the council planned by golfers including Ryan Fox. Tom Mansell 796 00:42:27,360 --> 00:42:30,000 Speaker 3: is the head of Sustainable Partnerships at allgand Council with 797 00:42:30,200 --> 00:42:30,640 Speaker 3: me tonight. 798 00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:35,439 Speaker 1: Hi Tom, Hi, thank you for having me, yes, what are. 799 00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:38,240 Speaker 3: The chances really of there still being a golf course 800 00:42:38,320 --> 00:42:40,000 Speaker 3: here after the wetland's done. 801 00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:44,320 Speaker 19: So theland there's two parts to this. There's one is 802 00:42:44,440 --> 00:42:47,440 Speaker 19: the wetland, which is wet and obviously we're going down 803 00:42:47,480 --> 00:42:50,920 Speaker 19: to groundwater. Then there's the dry detention area, which is 804 00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:53,520 Speaker 19: dry most of the time and just uses the area 805 00:42:53,560 --> 00:42:54,320 Speaker 19: when it floods. 806 00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:57,080 Speaker 1: The wet of the area is only about thirty. 807 00:42:56,800 --> 00:42:59,719 Speaker 19: Percent of the a of Thomas or the current golf course, 808 00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:03,000 Speaker 19: so quite a small, not a huge amount of area. 809 00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:07,960 Speaker 19: And then the rest there's another probably twenty five percent, 810 00:43:08,040 --> 00:43:11,040 Speaker 19: which is the dry detention. Then there's the dry area 811 00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:11,759 Speaker 19: as well. 812 00:43:12,360 --> 00:43:13,239 Speaker 12: So what. 813 00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:20,040 Speaker 19: Happens that we realize the importance and recreation in this area. 814 00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:23,279 Speaker 19: What we need to do as first and foremost is 815 00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:27,279 Speaker 19: detain the water to reduce flooding downstream. That is the 816 00:43:27,360 --> 00:43:31,440 Speaker 19: most important thing. Once we've done that, we'll then design 817 00:43:31,600 --> 00:43:35,760 Speaker 19: there's a lot of space for recreation golf included. 818 00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:38,959 Speaker 3: In that, right, So Legius, pain in you a picture 819 00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:40,840 Speaker 3: when I'm looking at it. Once you've done the wetland's 820 00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:42,279 Speaker 3: got all the work done that you need to keep 821 00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:44,560 Speaker 3: people safe. When I look out at this, what do 822 00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:48,040 Speaker 3: I see grass or do I see you know, flaxes 823 00:43:48,120 --> 00:43:51,040 Speaker 3: and stuff like typical wetland. What am I looking at? 824 00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:52,400 Speaker 4: Okay? 825 00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:56,800 Speaker 19: So the actual that wet the wetland will be wetted 826 00:43:56,960 --> 00:43:59,759 Speaker 19: areas and will have walkway cycle ways quite a high 827 00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:03,880 Speaker 19: hassive recreation. The remaining area is almost like a blank 828 00:44:03,960 --> 00:44:08,080 Speaker 19: canvas and that can be used for golf or what 829 00:44:08,239 --> 00:44:12,600 Speaker 19: other recreational users uses. It's up to the local Kaipatock 830 00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:14,880 Speaker 19: board to decide what they want to put on the 831 00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:15,600 Speaker 19: rest of the area. 832 00:44:15,680 --> 00:44:20,400 Speaker 3: So plenty of roads, plenty of roads, no ecological reasons 833 00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:22,799 Speaker 3: why you couldn't so you could have? Why not an 834 00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:24,839 Speaker 3: eighteen hole instead of a nine? You said there's only 835 00:44:24,880 --> 00:44:26,640 Speaker 3: going to be room for a nine? Is that because 836 00:44:26,640 --> 00:44:27,800 Speaker 3: of the space for the wetland. 837 00:44:29,560 --> 00:44:30,880 Speaker 1: Well, I'm not a golf designer. 838 00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:35,120 Speaker 19: So what we don't want is having golf throughout the 839 00:44:35,200 --> 00:44:38,239 Speaker 19: wetland area. We don't think that is maintainable or fund 840 00:44:38,719 --> 00:44:42,439 Speaker 19: or feasible. If they could put in the remaining area, 841 00:44:42,440 --> 00:44:44,279 Speaker 19: if they can fit an eighteen hole, and that's what 842 00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:46,920 Speaker 19: the Kaipatoke board want, then we'll work with that. 843 00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:48,319 Speaker 2: Right. 844 00:44:48,520 --> 00:44:52,440 Speaker 3: It's you know, what did this work have to be 845 00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:54,319 Speaker 3: done on a scale of one to ten, like will 846 00:44:54,360 --> 00:44:55,879 Speaker 3: people die if it didn't happen. 847 00:44:57,440 --> 00:45:00,279 Speaker 19: Well, since this all started in the twenty twenty three 848 00:45:00,360 --> 00:45:03,960 Speaker 19: the devastating floods there, so this work has to happen. 849 00:45:04,040 --> 00:45:07,080 Speaker 19: The insurance are backing wanting this work to happen. The 850 00:45:07,239 --> 00:45:11,680 Speaker 19: affected residents. We've just purchased one hundred and forty houses 851 00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:15,319 Speaker 19: that were flooded to extent where it was a risk 852 00:45:15,360 --> 00:45:18,320 Speaker 19: to life downstream of this of the A. 853 00:45:18,520 --> 00:45:20,839 Speaker 17: Thomas Park. So it is work. 854 00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:24,480 Speaker 19: This is a stage one of Stage three and Stage 855 00:45:24,520 --> 00:45:27,480 Speaker 19: one is funded but part funded by the government. It's 856 00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:31,080 Speaker 19: critical infrastructure works to keep this community safe. 857 00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:32,000 Speaker 1: It has to happen. 858 00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:33,799 Speaker 3: So the rest of it's not funded. So any new 859 00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:35,640 Speaker 3: golf course I need to have its own funding. 860 00:45:36,840 --> 00:45:38,080 Speaker 1: That's right, the government. 861 00:45:39,160 --> 00:45:42,520 Speaker 19: We've got a contract with the government and they will 862 00:45:42,640 --> 00:45:46,560 Speaker 19: pay for stormwater mitigation, flood mitigation, but any other recreation 863 00:45:46,760 --> 00:45:48,720 Speaker 19: golf needs to be funded. 864 00:45:48,840 --> 00:45:52,600 Speaker 3: Yes, golf is definitely nice to have, isn't it all right? Well, 865 00:45:52,719 --> 00:45:54,000 Speaker 3: it sounds like you've kind of come up with a 866 00:45:54,080 --> 00:45:55,600 Speaker 3: bit of a compromise there. Tom will wait and see 867 00:45:55,640 --> 00:46:00,280 Speaker 3: what happens. Great, Yeah, thank you for your time to Ansel, 868 00:46:00,360 --> 00:46:03,880 Speaker 3: their head of sustainable Partnerships at Auckland Council. Sounds all 869 00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:06,359 Speaker 3: quite good, doesn't it. Everyone got what they wanted out 870 00:46:06,400 --> 00:46:09,480 Speaker 3: of that. I don't know, just something tells me that 871 00:46:09,800 --> 00:46:14,920 Speaker 3: down the line somewhere there'll be a really really heaved 872 00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:20,200 Speaker 3: off Ryan Fox. You know, you know Sinking is trying 873 00:46:20,239 --> 00:46:22,880 Speaker 3: to put his way out of a wetland. It's just 874 00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:24,840 Speaker 3: gone twenty two minutes after five news talks. He'd be 875 00:46:24,960 --> 00:46:27,560 Speaker 3: coming up next the group that wants to stop shop 876 00:46:27,640 --> 00:46:30,640 Speaker 3: owners from restraining children even if they're thieving. 877 00:46:32,120 --> 00:46:36,640 Speaker 2: Informed inside into today's issues, it's Ryan Bridge on Hither 878 00:46:36,760 --> 00:46:38,920 Speaker 2: dupericy Ellen drive with one. 879 00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:42,120 Speaker 1: New Zealand Let's get connected, News Talks, said. 880 00:46:41,960 --> 00:46:45,920 Speaker 3: Be On News Talks, said be Gandhy. What better thing 881 00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:48,840 Speaker 3: to do on a Monday evening than quote Gandhy, He 882 00:46:48,960 --> 00:46:51,680 Speaker 3: once said words to the effect of people tend to 883 00:46:51,800 --> 00:46:55,719 Speaker 3: forget their duties, but remember their rights. Now that we 884 00:46:55,800 --> 00:46:58,000 Speaker 3: live in a post Gandhi world where if you haven't 885 00:46:58,040 --> 00:47:00,400 Speaker 3: got food in your hand, you're entitled to take it 886 00:47:00,480 --> 00:47:03,839 Speaker 3: from somebody else's. You know that food is your right, 887 00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:06,920 Speaker 3: your human right. If you haven't got enough, then take 888 00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:09,640 Speaker 3: it from somebody who does you can basically take what 889 00:47:09,760 --> 00:47:13,560 Speaker 3: you want. That's the that's the theory. The problem with this, 890 00:47:13,719 --> 00:47:16,080 Speaker 3: as we all know, is that in stealing that loaf 891 00:47:16,120 --> 00:47:18,680 Speaker 3: of bread or that packet of biscuits you think ought 892 00:47:18,760 --> 00:47:21,359 Speaker 3: to be yours, you're impinging on the rights of others, 893 00:47:22,120 --> 00:47:24,280 Speaker 3: the ones who bought the tim Tams in the first place. 894 00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:30,240 Speaker 3: Attitudes like this lead us inevitably to anarchy. Forget colonialism. 895 00:47:30,719 --> 00:47:33,839 Speaker 3: Anarchy not a fun way to live. Ask anyone living 896 00:47:33,880 --> 00:47:36,880 Speaker 3: in Haiti right now today we're arguing about where the 897 00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:40,520 Speaker 3: children who are under eighteen should be the subject of 898 00:47:40,640 --> 00:47:44,719 Speaker 3: a citizen's arrest. Now there is a very loud group 899 00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:50,239 Speaker 3: of academics, the Children's commissioner, included political parties. They say, no, 900 00:47:50,520 --> 00:47:54,680 Speaker 3: how awful, you must never restrain a child. But if 901 00:47:54,719 --> 00:47:59,000 Speaker 3: that child is stealing perhaps food, perhaps alcohol, perhaps vapes, 902 00:48:00,280 --> 00:48:03,880 Speaker 3: to stand back and let it happen. And what do 903 00:48:04,000 --> 00:48:06,879 Speaker 3: we think little Johnny will still tomorrow if it gets 904 00:48:07,440 --> 00:48:13,480 Speaker 3: away with today? You know, forget about chocolates or candy. 905 00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:15,759 Speaker 3: Might be a car Who wants a car when you 906 00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:18,320 Speaker 3: can take a life. And so it goes on. So, 907 00:48:18,520 --> 00:48:21,680 Speaker 3: unless we all want to descend into an unbearable brutal 908 00:48:21,760 --> 00:48:24,720 Speaker 3: system of anarchy. Can I just suggest we hold people, 909 00:48:24,880 --> 00:48:28,080 Speaker 3: no matter their age, responsible for the laws that they break, 910 00:48:28,160 --> 00:48:30,520 Speaker 3: the lives that they shatter, and the people that they hurt. 911 00:48:32,200 --> 00:48:36,120 Speaker 3: That way they might learn to appreciate the rights they 912 00:48:36,200 --> 00:48:40,480 Speaker 3: can enjoy so long as their duties are first taken 913 00:48:40,560 --> 00:48:44,960 Speaker 3: care of.

Crayon Bridge, 948 00:51:01,800 --> 00:51:05,399 Speaker 3: the Chief Children's Commissioner. This is going well. The Chief 949 00:51:05,480 --> 00:51:08,880 Speaker 3: Children's Commissioner has spoken out against the proposed changes to 950 00:51:09,040 --> 00:51:12,000 Speaker 3: our citizens' arrest laws. The government wants to make it 951 00:51:12,120 --> 00:51:15,520 Speaker 3: easier to make citizens arrest, but the Commissioner says members 952 00:51:15,520 --> 00:51:18,279 Speaker 3: of the public shouldn't be allowed to arrest children and 953 00:51:18,480 --> 00:51:22,960 Speaker 3: young people. Doctor Claire Hmad is the Chief Children's Commissioner 954 00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:26,080 Speaker 3: and is with me this evening. Hi Claire, Hi Ryan 955 00:51:26,320 --> 00:51:28,040 Speaker 3: with children anyone under eighteen? 956 00:51:28,120 --> 00:51:30,120 Speaker 21: Yeah, that's correct. 957 00:51:30,400 --> 00:51:33,080 Speaker 3: And if they are stealing something it's from your store, 958 00:51:33,360 --> 00:51:35,680 Speaker 3: you shouldn't be able to hold them until the police 959 00:51:35,719 --> 00:51:36,440 Speaker 3: get there. Why not? 960 00:51:38,360 --> 00:51:41,000 Speaker 10: Well, first of all, I want to acknowledge straight up 961 00:51:41,080 --> 00:51:45,120 Speaker 10: front that I want our communities to be safe. I 962 00:51:45,239 --> 00:51:48,400 Speaker 10: don't want children to be involved in these kinds of situations, 963 00:51:48,480 --> 00:51:51,239 Speaker 10: and I want shopkeepers to be safe in doing their work. 964 00:51:51,760 --> 00:51:54,680 Speaker 10: But this proposal, in my view, it is just too 965 00:51:54,880 --> 00:52:01,919 Speaker 10: risky for children and actually for everyone involved. What's too risky, Well, 966 00:52:02,080 --> 00:52:07,279 Speaker 10: this whole concept of citizens arrests for children in these 967 00:52:07,400 --> 00:52:11,040 Speaker 10: kinds of situations. Why I believe that is too risky 968 00:52:11,320 --> 00:52:15,600 Speaker 10: is that it actually puts children potentially in danger. On 969 00:52:15,800 --> 00:52:19,120 Speaker 10: two sides of the coins. So potentially children who might 970 00:52:19,800 --> 00:52:23,760 Speaker 10: be subject to a citizen's arrest, but then also children 971 00:52:24,280 --> 00:52:28,120 Speaker 10: who might be actually the workers in these kinds of settings, 972 00:52:28,239 --> 00:52:30,920 Speaker 10: because we need to remember that a quarter of our 973 00:52:31,000 --> 00:52:33,919 Speaker 10: retail workers in Altiero and New Zealand are actually aged 974 00:52:33,960 --> 00:52:37,360 Speaker 10: between fifteen to twenty four. And why I say that 975 00:52:37,560 --> 00:52:40,480 Speaker 10: it raises a risk of danger for children and young 976 00:52:40,560 --> 00:52:44,959 Speaker 10: people is that citizens arrest they can actually quickly go wrong. 977 00:52:45,680 --> 00:52:49,040 Speaker 10: And a number of agencies that have given advice to 978 00:52:49,160 --> 00:52:52,120 Speaker 10: the government on this police justice or in a Tamareki 979 00:52:52,200 --> 00:52:56,720 Speaker 10: Crown law, among others, they've highlighted this risk around actually 980 00:52:57,280 --> 00:53:01,680 Speaker 10: violence could escalate in these types of situations. Want to 981 00:53:01,800 --> 00:53:04,880 Speaker 10: see that avoided here, and there are alternatives. 982 00:53:05,440 --> 00:53:08,040 Speaker 3: You said that this would be brought upon the child, 983 00:53:08,520 --> 00:53:10,840 Speaker 3: but if they're stealing, they've brought it upon themselves, haven't they. 984 00:53:13,040 --> 00:53:16,520 Speaker 10: Look, I don't want children stealing, and I think most. 985 00:53:16,920 --> 00:53:19,480 Speaker 3: Problem as they do. The problem is they do, and 986 00:53:19,560 --> 00:53:24,840 Speaker 3: they do it repeatedly, brazenly during the day, often with weapons. 987 00:53:26,719 --> 00:53:28,920 Speaker 10: And I acknowledge those situations. 988 00:53:29,280 --> 00:53:30,360 Speaker 1: Well what do we do about it? 989 00:53:31,400 --> 00:53:33,959 Speaker 10: Well, we, first of all, we must be concerned about 990 00:53:34,000 --> 00:53:36,000 Speaker 10: this and I am concerned about this. 991 00:53:36,360 --> 00:53:38,359 Speaker 3: Okay, we're all concerned. But what do you do they 992 00:53:38,440 --> 00:53:41,400 Speaker 3: come in, they steal stuff from your shop. This is 993 00:53:41,560 --> 00:53:44,560 Speaker 3: the profit of which you will use to get your 994 00:53:44,719 --> 00:53:47,360 Speaker 3: kids through school. What would you like the shop owners 995 00:53:47,400 --> 00:53:49,120 Speaker 3: to do to try and talk to them? 996 00:53:50,520 --> 00:53:53,600 Speaker 10: Well, first of all, I actually would like get shop owners, 997 00:53:54,160 --> 00:53:57,520 Speaker 10: as I'm sure they do, to call the police, because 998 00:53:57,600 --> 00:54:01,600 Speaker 10: we have a law enforcement agency New Zealand, and. 999 00:54:03,120 --> 00:54:05,239 Speaker 3: The kids are gone by the time the police turn up, 1000 00:54:05,280 --> 00:54:06,759 Speaker 3: they're wearing masks, they don't find them. 1001 00:54:07,920 --> 00:54:11,920 Speaker 10: Well, I think that given the risks involved here, we 1002 00:54:12,160 --> 00:54:15,279 Speaker 10: have to see this in a in a balance way. 1003 00:54:16,320 --> 00:54:20,279 Speaker 3: I am concerned, so you would involved here, Okay, I 1004 00:54:20,360 --> 00:54:22,279 Speaker 3: get it that there's a risk that, you know, on 1005 00:54:22,360 --> 00:54:24,120 Speaker 3: the off chance that some kid might get hurt when 1006 00:54:24,120 --> 00:54:27,040 Speaker 3: they're being restrained. But you're saying that the risk that 1007 00:54:27,160 --> 00:54:29,080 Speaker 3: on the off chance that some kid might get hurt 1008 00:54:29,120 --> 00:54:33,720 Speaker 3: while they're being restrained out wighs the overwhelming financial burden 1009 00:54:33,760 --> 00:54:36,359 Speaker 3: that this is placing on shop owners, not to mention 1010 00:54:36,480 --> 00:54:37,640 Speaker 3: the fact that they're scared too. 1011 00:54:40,040 --> 00:54:42,960 Speaker 10: I actually don't think that this proposed change, though, is 1012 00:54:43,120 --> 00:54:46,960 Speaker 10: going to solve this problem, and so I really want 1013 00:54:47,040 --> 00:54:50,400 Speaker 10: to see a stronger focus on preventing these kinds of 1014 00:54:50,480 --> 00:54:53,440 Speaker 10: situations in the first place. As I said before, I 1015 00:54:53,560 --> 00:54:55,719 Speaker 10: don't want us to be a country in which we 1016 00:54:55,960 --> 00:54:59,759 Speaker 10: see children stealing from shops. There are things that we 1017 00:54:59,840 --> 00:55:03,680 Speaker 10: ca and do focus on preventing retail crime from happening 1018 00:55:03,800 --> 00:55:06,560 Speaker 10: in the first place. And I also want to make 1019 00:55:06,600 --> 00:55:10,320 Speaker 10: it absolutely clear that when children and young people don't 1020 00:55:10,520 --> 00:55:13,960 Speaker 10: engage in this behavior, there does need to be appropriate 1021 00:55:14,040 --> 00:55:18,040 Speaker 10: accountability for them to take responsibility for those actions. But 1022 00:55:18,320 --> 00:55:21,600 Speaker 10: this proposal, it's not striking the right balance. 1023 00:55:22,440 --> 00:55:25,320 Speaker 3: Doctor claar Upmard, appreciate your time this evening. That's the 1024 00:55:25,480 --> 00:55:28,080 Speaker 3: Chief Children's Commissioner time is nineteen to six. 1025 00:55:28,960 --> 00:55:34,120 Speaker 2: The Huddle with New Zealand Southeby's International Realty Unique Homes Uniquely. 1026 00:55:33,760 --> 00:55:36,239 Speaker 3: For you joining me tonight the one on I New 1027 00:55:36,320 --> 00:55:39,600 Speaker 3: Joseph Bucganni's CEO of Child Fun Josie good evening. Hello, Hello, 1028 00:55:40,040 --> 00:55:42,439 Speaker 3: and Morris Williamson's here too, or can Counsel, the former 1029 00:55:42,520 --> 00:55:46,360 Speaker 3: National Party minister. Hey, Morris, good to have you on 1030 00:55:46,440 --> 00:55:49,200 Speaker 3: the program. I know you are there. We'll start with you, Josie, 1031 00:55:49,239 --> 00:55:51,600 Speaker 3: what did you make of our Children's Commissioner? 1032 00:55:52,200 --> 00:55:54,719 Speaker 20: Well, the problem is it's the old Blair right thing. 1033 00:55:54,760 --> 00:55:57,040 Speaker 20: You've got to be tough on crime, tough on the 1034 00:55:57,120 --> 00:55:59,880 Speaker 20: causes of crime. So the problem I actually agree with her, 1035 00:56:00,040 --> 00:56:02,080 Speaker 20: I don't think this is the right thing. Partly. I 1036 00:56:02,120 --> 00:56:05,279 Speaker 20: mean I work for a child focused organization. I see 1037 00:56:05,320 --> 00:56:08,920 Speaker 20: violence against children all the time, and the problem with 1038 00:56:08,960 --> 00:56:11,640 Speaker 20: the sort of vigilante approach is it's actually really hard 1039 00:56:11,760 --> 00:56:14,840 Speaker 20: to restrain, you know, a fifteen year old child or 1040 00:56:14,880 --> 00:56:17,719 Speaker 20: a ten year old child or something without knowing how 1041 00:56:17,840 --> 00:56:20,279 Speaker 20: not to hurt them. And you know, you've seen things 1042 00:56:20,360 --> 00:56:23,200 Speaker 20: in places like the US where we had a vigilante 1043 00:56:23,480 --> 00:56:26,480 Speaker 20: couple a couple of years ago shot a guy, an 1044 00:56:26,480 --> 00:56:29,560 Speaker 20: African American black guy who they thought would had robbed 1045 00:56:29,560 --> 00:56:31,480 Speaker 20: a house. Turns out he was completely innocent. They shot 1046 00:56:31,560 --> 00:56:33,160 Speaker 20: him dead and they were saying it was a citizens 1047 00:56:33,719 --> 00:56:34,439 Speaker 20: citizens action. 1048 00:56:34,640 --> 00:56:34,719 Speaker 7: Right. 1049 00:56:35,080 --> 00:56:38,080 Speaker 20: So, but the problem with the interview you just did 1050 00:56:38,239 --> 00:56:40,560 Speaker 20: is that you've got to say what you're going to do. 1051 00:56:40,760 --> 00:56:42,759 Speaker 20: You've got to be tough on crime before you're tough 1052 00:56:42,800 --> 00:56:45,120 Speaker 20: on the causes of crime. Otherwise people don't give you 1053 00:56:45,239 --> 00:56:48,240 Speaker 20: the license to do the courses right. So the problem 1054 00:56:48,480 --> 00:56:50,120 Speaker 20: that she's got there, she didn't come up with what 1055 00:56:50,239 --> 00:56:53,759 Speaker 20: on earth the shopkeepers do. And for me, you're right, 1056 00:56:54,200 --> 00:56:56,360 Speaker 20: You're right Ryan that if she you call the police, 1057 00:56:56,360 --> 00:56:58,880 Speaker 20: police aren't going to come straight away. But it has 1058 00:56:58,960 --> 00:57:01,360 Speaker 20: to be resourcing the police. And if it's local police, 1059 00:57:01,440 --> 00:57:03,799 Speaker 20: if you know that there's a supermarket or retail shop 1060 00:57:03,840 --> 00:57:06,799 Speaker 20: that's getting targeted, please should be around that shop all 1061 00:57:06,840 --> 00:57:09,040 Speaker 20: the time. We've got to resource the police to do that. 1062 00:57:09,560 --> 00:57:12,200 Speaker 3: Morris. Back in the day you didn't have enough comps 1063 00:57:12,640 --> 00:57:16,280 Speaker 3: to do any much much of any beatwork, but yet 1064 00:57:16,520 --> 00:57:19,080 Speaker 3: you had people who were honest and if something like 1065 00:57:19,200 --> 00:57:21,760 Speaker 3: that happened in in a general store, they can have 1066 00:57:21,840 --> 00:57:23,480 Speaker 3: been held until the parents arrived. 1067 00:57:24,720 --> 00:57:27,960 Speaker 21: Yeah. Look, I'm just about to explode with that previous interview. 1068 00:57:28,000 --> 00:57:30,720 Speaker 21: I've never heard such rubbish in my whole bloody line. 1069 00:57:31,000 --> 00:57:32,760 Speaker 21: She says, we've got to do a different way, but 1070 00:57:32,920 --> 00:57:35,320 Speaker 21: not one item of what you would do. And you 1071 00:57:35,440 --> 00:57:38,080 Speaker 21: can't retain some of these little thugs. Some of these 1072 00:57:38,120 --> 00:57:40,800 Speaker 21: people are wandering around with buddy weapons and so on. Now, 1073 00:57:40,960 --> 00:57:43,160 Speaker 21: I do know you've got to do it carefully. You 1074 00:57:43,280 --> 00:57:46,480 Speaker 21: can't just have a young shop attendant grab someone. That's 1075 00:57:46,520 --> 00:57:49,560 Speaker 21: a problem. But if we maybe we could actually license 1076 00:57:49,640 --> 00:57:51,880 Speaker 21: some of the security people that they have at these places, 1077 00:57:52,120 --> 00:57:54,680 Speaker 21: and if they've got licenses, they can retain some of 1078 00:57:55,040 --> 00:57:56,920 Speaker 21: the little wrap bags. But if we just leave it 1079 00:57:56,920 --> 00:58:00,040 Speaker 21: at open Slava, it just keeps growing, getting worse. And 1080 00:58:00,120 --> 00:58:02,880 Speaker 21: they know they actually sum their nose that the shopkeepers 1081 00:58:02,920 --> 00:58:05,120 Speaker 21: out here, they some they not say you can't touch me, 1082 00:58:05,200 --> 00:58:08,280 Speaker 21: you can't do anything. Well, I'm sorry, but I'm completely 1083 00:58:08,360 --> 00:58:10,720 Speaker 21: in the opposite camp for the previous inter you you did, 1084 00:58:11,360 --> 00:58:13,360 Speaker 21: I think the little basard should be locked up. 1085 00:58:13,640 --> 00:58:16,200 Speaker 20: Yeah, So that the reason this is all happening as well, Morris, 1086 00:58:16,280 --> 00:58:18,040 Speaker 20: is because you know, a few weeks ago we had 1087 00:58:18,080 --> 00:58:20,720 Speaker 20: the police. Someone sent out an email saying, oh, we're 1088 00:58:20,760 --> 00:58:24,360 Speaker 20: only going to go to shoplifting above a certain value, 1089 00:58:24,600 --> 00:58:27,920 Speaker 20: right five hundred bucks, And so everybody, retailers went, what 1090 00:58:28,040 --> 00:58:29,680 Speaker 20: the hell, Well, what are we going to do about 1091 00:58:29,760 --> 00:58:32,520 Speaker 20: the you know, stealing the crunchy bar and the shampoos 1092 00:58:32,560 --> 00:58:35,160 Speaker 20: and whatnot. So you've got to answer that question. You're right, 1093 00:58:35,320 --> 00:58:37,960 Speaker 20: and maybe training security guards is a good idea, but 1094 00:58:38,080 --> 00:58:39,160 Speaker 20: you've got to fund the police. 1095 00:58:39,240 --> 00:58:39,480 Speaker 2: You do. 1096 00:58:39,920 --> 00:58:42,040 Speaker 3: But the other thing about all of this is being 1097 00:58:42,240 --> 00:58:45,440 Speaker 3: poor does not make you immoral. Like I'm sick of this. 1098 00:58:45,560 --> 00:58:48,760 Speaker 3: I'm sick of this shit, frankly from the left, you 1099 00:58:48,840 --> 00:58:51,680 Speaker 3: know does just because you are poor, that does not 1100 00:58:51,840 --> 00:58:54,040 Speaker 3: mean you will steal something. There are plenty of poor people, 1101 00:58:54,040 --> 00:58:55,200 Speaker 3: aren't there who don't know. 1102 00:58:55,400 --> 00:58:55,600 Speaker 1: And I. 1103 00:58:58,240 --> 00:59:00,400 Speaker 21: Go back to the depression, go back to the good 1104 00:59:00,440 --> 00:59:04,680 Speaker 21: lord standing in line and cues for soup, but a 1105 00:59:04,720 --> 00:59:07,800 Speaker 21: soup kitchen with no food nothing. Did they go out 1106 00:59:07,840 --> 00:59:09,800 Speaker 21: and you know, steal and beat up people and beat 1107 00:59:09,840 --> 00:59:12,360 Speaker 21: up shopkeepers? No they did not. We never had that, 1108 00:59:12,800 --> 00:59:15,280 Speaker 21: and we've allowed this. This is a problem we've allowed 1109 00:59:15,360 --> 00:59:18,920 Speaker 21: to happen. And now desperate situations call for desperate measures. 1110 00:59:19,080 --> 00:59:20,840 Speaker 20: In my view, the one thing I would say you 1111 00:59:20,920 --> 00:59:23,280 Speaker 20: said earlier, Ryan, I heard you that, you know, not 1112 00:59:23,560 --> 00:59:26,400 Speaker 20: arresting these kids or not having consequences for these kids 1113 00:59:26,520 --> 00:59:29,360 Speaker 20: leads to anarchy, absolutely right. I would argue that a 1114 00:59:29,480 --> 00:59:31,240 Speaker 20: vigilante culture could also. 1115 00:59:31,160 --> 00:59:31,480 Speaker 17: Lead to that. 1116 00:59:31,800 --> 00:59:33,800 Speaker 3: I do agree with that too. So there's a fine 1117 00:59:33,840 --> 00:59:35,000 Speaker 3: line to be head somewhere, isn't it. 1118 00:59:35,080 --> 00:59:36,960 Speaker 21: But it's not a vigilante culture if you've got it 1119 00:59:37,040 --> 00:59:39,280 Speaker 21: properly managed. If you've got people who have been checked 1120 00:59:39,320 --> 00:59:42,480 Speaker 21: in and past, they've got a security code. They are 1121 00:59:42,480 --> 00:59:44,360 Speaker 21: people that are employed to do so, they know how 1122 00:59:44,400 --> 00:59:46,919 Speaker 21: they work. I don't want the kids hurt. I want 1123 00:59:46,960 --> 00:59:50,000 Speaker 21: them detained. It's not an arrest, it's detained until the 1124 00:59:50,040 --> 00:59:52,600 Speaker 21: police can come. The problem I've got out here. The 1125 00:59:52,680 --> 00:59:54,840 Speaker 21: number of shopkeepers have said we've called the police and 1126 00:59:54,920 --> 00:59:56,640 Speaker 21: the police said, look, you just have to wait. We 1127 00:59:56,680 --> 00:59:59,400 Speaker 21: haven't got anybody available for the next few hours. And 1128 00:59:59,520 --> 01:00:02,920 Speaker 21: it's just it's just it's literally sending a signal. Keep 1129 01:00:02,960 --> 01:00:03,760 Speaker 21: doing it because you'll. 1130 01:00:03,600 --> 01:00:04,120 Speaker 7: Get away with it. 1131 01:00:04,360 --> 01:00:06,680 Speaker 3: Joseph Beganni Morris Williamson on the huddle, will take a 1132 01:00:06,720 --> 01:00:08,360 Speaker 3: quick break and be back with them next. 1133 01:00:12,320 --> 01:00:16,080 Speaker 2: The huddle with New Zealand Southeby's International Realty, the ones 1134 01:00:16,200 --> 01:00:17,640 Speaker 2: for unmassed results. 1135 01:00:18,760 --> 01:00:20,960 Speaker 3: You're on news talks. There'll be eleven away from sixth 1136 01:00:21,040 --> 01:00:23,960 Speaker 3: Great to have your company for the huddle tonight. Joseph Bugani, 1137 01:00:24,080 --> 01:00:27,560 Speaker 3: the chief executive at ChildFund, and Marris Williamson orkand Council, 1138 01:00:27,600 --> 01:00:31,160 Speaker 3: a former National Party minister. The COVID Inquiry Part two 1139 01:00:31,280 --> 01:00:33,760 Speaker 3: coming to a cinemon EU. In fact, it started today 1140 01:00:34,600 --> 01:00:37,640 Speaker 3: and cinema would be the last place you want to 1141 01:00:37,640 --> 01:00:40,600 Speaker 3: be during COVID. Remember that they can't go anyth Cinema 1142 01:00:40,640 --> 01:00:44,240 Speaker 3: can't go anywhere. These people anyway, Part two of the 1143 01:00:44,280 --> 01:00:48,080 Speaker 3: inquiry underway, and the chair confirming to me this morning 1144 01:00:48,360 --> 01:00:52,680 Speaker 3: that they are basically going to ask Jacinda Adourn to 1145 01:00:52,760 --> 01:00:55,680 Speaker 3: give testimony, but you have to be in New Zealand 1146 01:00:55,960 --> 01:00:59,160 Speaker 3: in order for their jurisdiction to stick. Josie, do you 1147 01:00:59,360 --> 01:01:02,440 Speaker 3: think well, one, she will clearly be asked, but two 1148 01:01:02,560 --> 01:01:05,480 Speaker 3: do you think she will return even if it's fine 1149 01:01:05,600 --> 01:01:07,200 Speaker 3: video link to answer questions? 1150 01:01:07,640 --> 01:01:10,120 Speaker 20: Well, you'd have to ask the question why wouldn't she 1151 01:01:10,640 --> 01:01:14,840 Speaker 20: if she's so pleased with the COVID response, you know, 1152 01:01:15,040 --> 01:01:17,560 Speaker 20: and I say that as someone who was supportive of 1153 01:01:17,640 --> 01:01:23,000 Speaker 20: the initial lockdown as most people were, but also frustrated 1154 01:01:23,240 --> 01:01:26,920 Speaker 20: during COVID And since that we haven't really dug into 1155 01:01:27,520 --> 01:01:30,480 Speaker 20: not how decisions were made, but what decisions were made 1156 01:01:30,760 --> 01:01:33,760 Speaker 20: was how did they make a decision to close grengrosses 1157 01:01:33,840 --> 01:01:36,960 Speaker 20: and butchers but keep the supermarket open? How did they 1158 01:01:37,000 --> 01:01:40,560 Speaker 20: make a decision for extended lockdowns? Why did they make 1159 01:01:40,600 --> 01:01:44,360 Speaker 20: a decision about m i Q that was so draconian 1160 01:01:44,480 --> 01:01:47,520 Speaker 20: for families? So we do want to look at you know, 1161 01:01:48,040 --> 01:01:50,000 Speaker 20: was there a better way to do it? And you 1162 01:01:50,040 --> 01:01:52,120 Speaker 20: know we have to look all so internationally. I was 1163 01:01:52,160 --> 01:01:55,120 Speaker 20: looking just before at the statistics for Sweden where they 1164 01:01:55,120 --> 01:01:59,200 Speaker 20: didn't have a lockdown. Now you know Sweden had no lockdown. 1165 01:01:59,280 --> 01:02:02,640 Speaker 20: They had they did have kind of social distancings and 1166 01:02:02,640 --> 01:02:06,840 Speaker 20: stuff like that, but their COVID deaths were about the 1167 01:02:06,920 --> 01:02:10,120 Speaker 20: middle range of all the Scandinavian countries in the Western 1168 01:02:10,160 --> 01:02:13,840 Speaker 20: European countries that had lockdowns as well. That's interesting. I'm 1169 01:02:13,880 --> 01:02:15,880 Speaker 20: not taking a position on that. I'm saying we should 1170 01:02:15,920 --> 01:02:19,200 Speaker 20: examine that for next time to know whether they made 1171 01:02:19,200 --> 01:02:21,200 Speaker 20: the right decision or not. Does just send a need 1172 01:02:21,280 --> 01:02:22,760 Speaker 20: to be there? What are we going to hear from 1173 01:02:22,800 --> 01:02:24,880 Speaker 20: her that she hasn't already said. I'm not sure that 1174 01:02:25,040 --> 01:02:27,520 Speaker 20: we do need her there, But if she really felt 1175 01:02:27,600 --> 01:02:30,280 Speaker 20: confident about the response, it was nothing to see here. 1176 01:02:30,800 --> 01:02:31,400 Speaker 20: Why wouldn't she? 1177 01:02:31,440 --> 01:02:33,040 Speaker 3: Why wouldn't you? What you got to hide would be 1178 01:02:33,120 --> 01:02:35,600 Speaker 3: the thing that their questions would be the interesting part 1179 01:02:35,960 --> 01:02:38,400 Speaker 3: for me, and to see where they got with them. Morris. 1180 01:02:40,880 --> 01:02:43,480 Speaker 21: This console general in Los Angeles when it hit, and 1181 01:02:43,600 --> 01:02:45,320 Speaker 21: I was there for the whole first year of it. 1182 01:02:45,800 --> 01:02:49,240 Speaker 21: I saw some heartbreaking family stories who couldn't get home 1183 01:02:49,280 --> 01:02:51,840 Speaker 21: to see a dying relative, or kids who couldn't get 1184 01:02:51,880 --> 01:02:54,320 Speaker 21: home to see somebody who was really serious, and I 1185 01:02:54,400 --> 01:02:58,280 Speaker 21: kept saying, there's no need for this almost random lottery 1186 01:02:58,440 --> 01:03:01,680 Speaker 21: MiQ system. I wrote some software because that's part of 1187 01:03:01,760 --> 01:03:04,560 Speaker 21: my training and background. It's writing software, and I actually 1188 01:03:04,760 --> 01:03:07,520 Speaker 21: wrote to both to Cinda and to Chippy, and I said, 1189 01:03:07,520 --> 01:03:10,360 Speaker 21: I've got a model system where you'll earn points for 1190 01:03:10,440 --> 01:03:12,800 Speaker 21: each day you're in the Q waiting. You'll bubble to 1191 01:03:12,840 --> 01:03:15,200 Speaker 21: the top and eventually know when it is you'll get 1192 01:03:15,240 --> 01:03:18,280 Speaker 21: your MiQ slot. We can give double points for those 1193 01:03:18,360 --> 01:03:21,480 Speaker 21: who are locked overseas and wanting to get home compared 1194 01:03:21,480 --> 01:03:22,960 Speaker 21: to those that are here and wanting to go after 1195 01:03:23,040 --> 01:03:25,840 Speaker 21: Fiji or something. Because there were people getting MiQ who 1196 01:03:25,880 --> 01:03:29,360 Speaker 21: were here already heating off for a holiday, which was nonsense. 1197 01:03:29,680 --> 01:03:31,760 Speaker 21: And I got these bland letters back, both from just 1198 01:03:31,840 --> 01:03:34,200 Speaker 21: Cinda and from Chippy. I No, we think the system 1199 01:03:34,200 --> 01:03:36,840 Speaker 21: we've got us working perfectly well, Well it wasn't. It 1200 01:03:37,000 --> 01:03:39,600 Speaker 21: was a disgrace. I came back in the end when 1201 01:03:39,640 --> 01:03:41,360 Speaker 21: I was called back when it was all over, and 1202 01:03:41,640 --> 01:03:45,000 Speaker 21: had to do MiQ at the yepurn A Hotel for 1203 01:03:45,120 --> 01:03:47,440 Speaker 21: two weeks and it was hilarious. I was tested in 1204 01:03:47,520 --> 01:03:50,000 Speaker 21: Los Angeles. I was tested at walking the airport when 1205 01:03:50,040 --> 01:03:53,320 Speaker 21: we arrived. I was tested at MiQ at the actual hotel, 1206 01:03:54,320 --> 01:03:56,800 Speaker 21: negative all three and then spent two weeks sitting in 1207 01:03:56,840 --> 01:03:59,600 Speaker 21: a hotel while there were fifteen thousand cases of it 1208 01:04:00,040 --> 01:04:00,680 Speaker 21: out on the street. 1209 01:04:01,240 --> 01:04:03,480 Speaker 20: And I don't want to see people put on trial. 1210 01:04:03,480 --> 01:04:06,000 Speaker 20: I don't want the sense of you know, even just 1211 01:04:06,080 --> 01:04:07,840 Speaker 20: Sindra or anyone who was involved in it, because they 1212 01:04:07,880 --> 01:04:11,400 Speaker 20: were making difficult decisions with less information. 1213 01:04:11,000 --> 01:04:11,680 Speaker 1: Than we have now. 1214 01:04:12,160 --> 01:04:15,400 Speaker 20: But where you're right, Morris, is that we need to 1215 01:04:15,560 --> 01:04:18,880 Speaker 20: understand if they made a decision like m IQ, like 1216 01:04:19,800 --> 01:04:22,520 Speaker 20: you know, Greenngrosser's closing and Butcher's closing or whatever, but 1217 01:04:22,680 --> 01:04:26,200 Speaker 20: Supermarket's open, was there an alternative because we need to 1218 01:04:26,280 --> 01:04:28,320 Speaker 20: know that for next time, and then we won't make 1219 01:04:28,360 --> 01:04:30,200 Speaker 20: the same They're an alternative. 1220 01:04:30,240 --> 01:04:32,480 Speaker 21: Why take issue with that? Though, Josie is I gave 1221 01:04:32,560 --> 01:04:35,640 Speaker 21: them what And if you talk to other people from 1222 01:04:35,680 --> 01:04:37,640 Speaker 21: the computer society and someone who looked at the. 1223 01:04:37,640 --> 01:04:42,440 Speaker 3: Software inact, lots of people came saw my. 1224 01:04:42,520 --> 01:04:44,440 Speaker 21: System and said he really thought it was fantastic. 1225 01:04:44,880 --> 01:04:47,439 Speaker 3: There you go, There you go, Maurics Williams and Josie 1226 01:04:47,440 --> 01:04:49,160 Speaker 3: Biganei on the panel tonight. I think for me that 1227 01:04:49,320 --> 01:04:52,640 Speaker 3: is the big issue too. Is did that? Yeah, they 1228 01:04:52,680 --> 01:04:54,360 Speaker 3: made a bunch of decisions. They got a bunch of 1229 01:04:54,400 --> 01:04:56,520 Speaker 3: stuff right, They've got a bunch of stuff wrong. But 1230 01:04:56,720 --> 01:05:00,560 Speaker 3: were we too quick to dismiss the dissenting voice the 1231 01:05:00,680 --> 01:05:05,240 Speaker 3: plan b is and did we ostracize them to our peril? 1232 01:05:06,320 --> 01:05:07,959 Speaker 3: Six to six Newstalks EBB. 1233 01:05:09,080 --> 01:05:12,480 Speaker 2: It's the Heather Dupa Clan Drive Full Show podcast on 1234 01:05:12,760 --> 01:05:15,440 Speaker 2: my Heart Radio powered by News Talks EBB. 1235 01:05:16,800 --> 01:05:19,760 Speaker 3: News Talks VB.

This 1239 01:05:30,640 --> 01:05:33,440 Speaker 3: is a government scheme that's been run and they've found 1240 01:05:33,440 --> 01:05:35,960 Speaker 3: out that's meant to be for people with mobile issues, 1241 01:05:36,000 --> 01:05:38,520 Speaker 3: mobility issues, but they're giving it to any Tom Dick 1242 01:05:38,560 --> 01:05:40,800 Speaker 3: and Harry down the road.

Another had social 1249 01:06:03,160 --> 01:06:07,480 Speaker 3: phobia so presumably had to drive somewhere in their own 1250 01:06:07,520 --> 01:06:11,120 Speaker 3: car rather than get a bus. Honestly, no wonder the 1251 01:06:11,200 --> 01:06:14,919 Speaker 3: Western world's going bankrupt when you're giving away free cars 1252 01:06:14,960 --> 01:06:18,040 Speaker 3: and stuff like that.

There's a long way to go 1374 01:12:14,680 --> 01:12:18,519 Speaker 22: that Health New Zealand is a massive organization. It's full 1375 01:12:18,560 --> 01:12:22,360 Speaker 22: of incredible people who work incredibly hard.

They're consulting about using a wing 1384 01:12:50,200 --> 01:12:54,240 Speaker 22: of that part of the hospital for medical patients who 1385 01:12:54,280 --> 01:12:56,719 Speaker 22: are currently waiting an ed because there's no beds available 1386 01:12:56,760 --> 01:12:57,879 Speaker 22: on their part of the hospital. 1387 01:12:58,720 --> 01:13:00,320 Speaker 13: They're working with the clinician on that. 1388 01:13:00,400 --> 01:13:03,600 Speaker 22: It's about making sure that there is utilizing the capacity 1389 01:13:03,640 --> 01:13:06,639 Speaker 22: that is available in the best interests of patients. Obviously, 1390 01:13:07,360 --> 01:13:09,839 Speaker 22: there are things they need to work through with staff. 1391 01:13:10,760 --> 01:13:12,840 Speaker 22: I've been I've had the assurance that they will work 1392 01:13:12,920 --> 01:13:16,040 Speaker 22: through those issues with staff. That the patients who go 1393 01:13:16,160 --> 01:13:17,800 Speaker 22: into that part of the hospital will obviously be in 1394 01:13:17,880 --> 01:13:21,560 Speaker 22: a separate part. They'll be female patients. But you know, 1395 01:13:21,680 --> 01:13:24,760 Speaker 22: this is a hospital which is severely capacity constrainted, as 1396 01:13:24,800 --> 01:13:27,080 Speaker 22: the worst ed in terms of d performance in the country. 1397 01:13:27,840 --> 01:13:31,080 Speaker 22: We're investing a significant amount of money to rebuild their 1398 01:13:31,120 --> 01:13:33,639 Speaker 22: emergency department and put more beds into this hospital. 1399 01:13:34,000 --> 01:13:36,800 Speaker 13: But they do need to look, just like other hospitals. 1400 01:13:36,400 --> 01:13:38,760 Speaker 22: Do around the country, how do you maximize the use 1401 01:13:38,800 --> 01:13:41,320 Speaker 22: of your beds to ensure that patients can be seen 1402 01:13:41,360 --> 01:13:43,240 Speaker 22: and get the treatment they need.

The US shear market futures, This SMP futures 1456 01:16:15,240 --> 01:16:18,639 Speaker 8: is what is telling us the market expecs to happen tonight. 1457 01:16:18,760 --> 01:16:21,840 Speaker 8: Our time is down on point four percent after mister Trump, 1458 01:16:21,960 --> 01:16:24,200 Speaker 8: he warned us that he's going to put sendings of 1459 01:16:24,280 --> 01:16:27,599 Speaker 8: letters out to people up to ten to twelve on Friday, 1460 01:16:27,640 --> 01:16:29,479 Speaker 8: and he's going to start sitting livies as much as 1461 01:16:29,520 --> 01:16:33,240 Speaker 8: seventy percent unilesterally ahead of this July ninth deadline. So 1462 01:16:33,320 --> 01:16:36,920 Speaker 8: he's throwing a few We're going to make this happen 1463 01:16:37,040 --> 01:16:39,759 Speaker 8: things today. He's come out, he's on time this afternoon 1464 01:16:39,840 --> 01:16:41,960 Speaker 8: and said he's going to put an extra ten percent 1465 01:16:42,040 --> 01:16:44,200 Speaker 8: tariff on those countries aligned with Brooks. This is the 1466 01:16:45,640 --> 01:16:51,439 Speaker 8: the emerging nations includes Russia and China, Brazil, and then 1467 01:16:51,560 --> 01:16:54,920 Speaker 8: adding to the mixed, US Treasury secretary've scopped. They said 1468 01:16:54,960 --> 01:16:58,680 Speaker 8: that he mister Trump may impose April sixond Liberation Day 1469 01:16:58,720 --> 01:17:02,840 Speaker 8: level tariffs countries that don't reach a deal beginning of 1470 01:17:02,920 --> 01:17:05,200 Speaker 8: the first of August. Now that is different from the 1471 01:17:05,320 --> 01:17:07,280 Speaker 8: July to night, So that suggests that face for you, 1472 01:17:07,760 --> 01:17:10,599 Speaker 8: you're going to see this extension of tariff pause again. 1473 01:17:10,760 --> 01:17:13,200 Speaker 8: So that's what capital markets are thinking. We're all thinking 1474 01:17:14,000 --> 01:17:17,680 Speaker 8: US government's going to push tariff's pauses out further. If 1475 01:17:17,680 --> 01:17:20,519 Speaker 8: we don't get that, and if we actually get increased tariffs, 1476 01:17:20,560 --> 01:17:22,320 Speaker 8: that would be a surprise for capital markets. 1477 01:17:22,479 --> 01:17:25,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, interesting. What about the RBA tomorrow their decision. 1478 01:17:26,600 --> 01:17:29,720 Speaker 8: Yeah, so the IRBA, Australia's central bankers, their bank in 1479 01:17:29,720 --> 01:17:33,519 Speaker 8: Australia widely expected to deliver a point two five percent cut. 1480 01:17:34,400 --> 01:17:36,960 Speaker 8: That's at four thirty Zone time, and that would take 1481 01:17:37,120 --> 01:17:40,280 Speaker 8: Australia's official illustrate down to three point six from three 1482 01:17:40,280 --> 01:17:43,040 Speaker 8: point eight five. At the moment, it's the key for market. 1483 01:17:43,040 --> 01:17:46,080 Speaker 8: It's all about tone. Inflation's falling back to within the 1484 01:17:46,200 --> 01:17:50,080 Speaker 8: irba's target bands, so they could do more cuts, but similarly, 1485 01:17:50,080 --> 01:17:51,920 Speaker 8: they might want to wait and see how the three 1486 01:17:52,240 --> 01:17:55,680 Speaker 8: twenty five basis points cuts through from December kick through. 1487 01:17:56,000 --> 01:17:58,200 Speaker 8: That would be what's called a hawkish cut, so their 1488 01:17:58,360 --> 01:18:00,240 Speaker 8: cut rates and then they'll say we're going to and 1489 01:18:00,320 --> 01:18:03,479 Speaker 8: see the key thing from Zeona. Course on Wednesday, we've 1490 01:18:03,479 --> 01:18:06,280 Speaker 8: got our own reserve bank coming out and markets aren't 1491 01:18:06,280 --> 01:18:09,320 Speaker 8: expecting anything. Ryan, It's very much steady as she goes. 1492 01:18:09,800 --> 01:18:12,479 Speaker 8: But there is a growing view that the RB has 1493 01:18:12,600 --> 01:18:16,400 Speaker 8: some room to start talking about potentially cutting rates, and 1494 01:18:16,439 --> 01:18:18,800 Speaker 8: that would be a what's called a dovish hole, so 1495 01:18:18,840 --> 01:18:21,800 Speaker 8: they wouldn't cut, but they'd start talking about potentially cutting. 1496 01:18:21,880 --> 01:18:24,280 Speaker 8: So quite a big difference between the RBA and the RB. 1497 01:18:24,240 --> 01:18:26,799 Speaker 3: And Z certainly is. And we've got our call obviously 1498 01:18:26,880 --> 01:18:29,479 Speaker 3: this week as well. What about OPEK cranking up the 1499 01:18:29,720 --> 01:18:31,400 Speaker 3: oil production. How's that been received? 1500 01:18:32,200 --> 01:18:36,880 Speaker 8: Yeah, actually quite poisively, just the increase in production, so 1501 01:18:37,200 --> 01:18:40,200 Speaker 8: IPEK plus talking about increasing production by five hundred and 1502 01:18:40,200 --> 01:18:43,679 Speaker 8: forty eight thousand barrels a day, very specific number, which 1503 01:18:43,760 --> 01:18:46,240 Speaker 8: is up high then the previously indicated four hundred and 1504 01:18:46,240 --> 01:18:49,519 Speaker 8: eleven thousand dollars barrels a day. What that's mean is 1505 01:18:49,520 --> 01:18:52,320 Speaker 8: we're seeing the Brent oil price, the futures again, the 1506 01:18:52,520 --> 01:18:55,120 Speaker 8: forward market, what markets may do overnight in New zeal 1507 01:18:55,200 --> 01:18:57,639 Speaker 8: And time expecting their ore price to fall by zero 1508 01:18:57,680 --> 01:19:00,280 Speaker 8: point seven percent, so just under one percent to just 1509 01:19:00,479 --> 01:19:03,560 Speaker 8: over sixty eight dollars usp barrel, and of course that 1510 01:19:03,680 --> 01:19:06,439 Speaker 8: lower au pros they'd be helpful, and tenions of inflation release, 1511 01:19:07,000 --> 01:19:09,040 Speaker 8: maybe allowing some of those central bankers to think about 1512 01:19:09,120 --> 01:19:09,840 Speaker 8: cutting rates again. 1513 01:19:09,880 --> 01:19:13,679 Speaker 3: Perhaps, Ryan, that'd be nice.

Numbers are in for 1526 01:19:53,320 --> 01:19:56,519 Speaker 3: how Lord's new album has performed sort to number one 1527 01:19:56,680 --> 01:19:59,560 Speaker 3: on the New Zealand album charts. No problem, you'd expect that, 1528 01:19:59,560 --> 01:20:02,880 Speaker 3: wouldn't you. However, Let's head Stateside album has come in 1529 01:20:03,000 --> 01:20:06,600 Speaker 3: it number two. Who took out the top spot? That 1530 01:20:06,720 --> 01:20:10,200 Speaker 3: was Morgan Wollan. The new country singer enjoying his seventh 1531 01:20:10,280 --> 01:20:12,280 Speaker 3: week in a row at number one. He sold an 1532 01:20:12,280 --> 01:20:15,000 Speaker 3: additional one hundred and seventy thousand units this week over 1533 01:20:15,120 --> 01:20:17,559 Speaker 3: double the Kii sing is seventy one thousand album sales. 1534 01:20:18,400 --> 01:20:21,479 Speaker 3: So just before we move on, but I was just 1535 01:20:21,560 --> 01:20:23,880 Speaker 3: looking this up because seventy one thousand albums in a 1536 01:20:23,920 --> 01:20:25,760 Speaker 3: week to me doesn't seem like a hell of a lot. 1537 01:20:26,040 --> 01:20:28,120 Speaker 3: Most of them apparently vinyl. In fact, half of them 1538 01:20:28,200 --> 01:20:31,000 Speaker 3: vinyl worth about sixty bucks. Let's do some rough mass 1539 01:20:31,040 --> 01:20:33,400 Speaker 3: four point two million dollars in a week. She'd get 1540 01:20:33,439 --> 01:20:35,519 Speaker 3: what ten percent at best f one hundred and twenty 1541 01:20:35,600 --> 01:20:38,519 Speaker 3: k in a week. It's a very expensive lifestyle.

What 1575 01:23:01,400 --> 01:23:06,960 Speaker 3: a dream, No bs, no nonsense, no flaky stuff, no 1576 01:23:07,080 --> 01:23:10,840 Speaker 3: woky stuff, just a normal movie. A car that moves 1577 01:23:11,000 --> 01:23:15,040 Speaker 3: very quickly around a track made of metal exhaust oil, 1578 01:23:15,920 --> 01:23:21,439 Speaker 3: you know, co two who cares storyline. Look, it's not 1579 01:23:21,479 --> 01:23:23,639 Speaker 3: going to change the world, But those movies never did, 1580 01:23:23,880 --> 01:23:26,000 Speaker 3: did they. It was a guy that falls in love 1581 01:23:26,040 --> 01:23:28,080 Speaker 3: with the girl and they go around the track and 1582 01:23:28,160 --> 01:23:31,120 Speaker 3: she's making the engine, and that's probably quite you know, 1583 01:23:31,439 --> 01:23:34,559 Speaker 3: twenty first century. She's the one designing the engine, he's 1584 01:23:34,600 --> 01:23:37,040 Speaker 3: the one driving it. They fall in love and by 1585 01:23:37,080 --> 01:23:39,439 Speaker 3: the end of it, everything's happy. Does he go off 1586 01:23:39,479 --> 01:23:41,160 Speaker 3: the rails? Does he go off the road? Does he 1587 01:23:41,240 --> 01:23:43,880 Speaker 3: crash the car? No, he doesn't. He gets the love 1588 01:23:43,920 --> 01:23:46,479 Speaker 3: of his life, which he's needed because he's been alone 1589 01:23:46,520 --> 01:23:49,960 Speaker 3: all of us. Anyway, I'm probably spoiling the story too. Anyway, 1590 01:23:50,560 --> 01:23:52,240 Speaker 3: Just go and see it, do you know why? Because 1591 01:23:52,240 --> 01:23:55,800 Speaker 3: it's normal. It's a normal movie. It's not like the 1592 01:23:55,920 --> 01:23:58,519 Speaker 3: Pope one where the Pope one was so good and 1593 01:23:58,600 --> 01:24:00,760 Speaker 3: then right at the end, oh it's the Pope that 1594 01:24:00,880 --> 01:24:04,000 Speaker 3: it's a it's a woman man man, woman, And you're. 1595 01:24:04,040 --> 01:24:05,880 Speaker 24: So we're spoiling every movie that's come out in the life. 1596 01:24:06,040 --> 01:24:08,320 Speaker 3: That's an old one. That's an old one. We've had 1597 01:24:08,360 --> 01:24:11,360 Speaker 3: a pope die and a new one anointed since then. 1598 01:24:13,040 --> 01:24:15,280 Speaker 3: But you know what I'm saying, why can't movies just 1599 01:24:15,360 --> 01:24:17,320 Speaker 3: be normal? And why do they have to be three 1600 01:24:17,360 --> 01:24:19,280 Speaker 3: and a half hours. That's why I gave this one 1601 01:24:19,320 --> 01:24:20,920 Speaker 3: a ten out of ten at two and a half 1602 01:24:21,000 --> 01:24:23,920 Speaker 3: two hours, thirty five years and you're out. I even 1603 01:24:24,000 --> 01:24:26,600 Speaker 3: had three chicken sliders and a Coke zero while I 1604 01:24:26,720 --> 01:24:30,840 Speaker 3: was in there, which I actually have reconsidered that that 1605 01:24:31,040 --> 01:24:34,120 Speaker 3: is a bad idea because it's kind of it's just rude. 1606 01:24:34,439 --> 01:24:36,200 Speaker 3: It's a bit of a dick move, you know what 1607 01:24:36,280 --> 01:24:39,400 Speaker 3: I mean. You're making noise, You're disturbing those around you. 1608 01:24:39,520 --> 01:24:42,479 Speaker 3: Some people have their own little lamp that they turn 1609 01:24:42,560 --> 01:24:44,800 Speaker 3: on to eat their chicken sliders, and I'm thinking, this 1610 01:24:44,960 --> 01:24:47,680 Speaker 3: is not right. This is a movie theater, you know, 1611 01:24:48,000 --> 01:24:49,480 Speaker 3: You know when you go to a restaurant. 1612 01:24:49,160 --> 01:24:50,840 Speaker 24: Food should have no place in a cinema, in a 1613 01:24:50,880 --> 01:24:53,240 Speaker 24: movie theater either, Like the smell is just going to 1614 01:24:53,280 --> 01:24:53,760 Speaker 24: bug people. 1615 01:24:53,840 --> 01:24:56,200 Speaker 3: I just yeah, ten to agree, ten to agree. And 1616 01:24:56,240 --> 01:24:58,200 Speaker 3: when you've got a knife and a fork, when you've 1617 01:24:58,240 --> 01:25:01,360 Speaker 3: got real cutlery and people who are sitting pretty much 1618 01:25:01,400 --> 01:25:02,960 Speaker 3: in the dark. You know those restaurants where you go 1619 01:25:03,040 --> 01:25:05,639 Speaker 3: where they're blind and you are dark dining. Yeah, dark dining. 1620 01:25:05,960 --> 01:25:09,439 Speaker 3: It's dark dining, which is dumb dining because you're trying 1621 01:25:09,479 --> 01:25:13,519 Speaker 3: to watch a movie and the cutlery. It's no, can't 1622 01:25:13,560 --> 01:25:15,679 Speaker 3: do it anyway. It's twenty two minutes. 1623 01:25:15,479 --> 01:25:18,080 Speaker 1: Away from seven Bryan Bridge. 1624 01:25:18,840 --> 01:25:20,960 Speaker 3: Now you know which movie to see and how to 1625 01:25:21,040 --> 01:25:27,639 Speaker 3: see it and how it ends. Sorry about that all right? 1626 01:25:28,040 --> 01:25:30,599 Speaker 3: Did you know all of the medicinal cannabis you can 1627 01:25:30,640 --> 01:25:34,400 Speaker 3: buy here is imported? Yes, all of it comes from overseas, 1628 01:25:34,479 --> 01:25:37,200 Speaker 3: despite local companies which know already, which are already up 1629 01:25:37,200 --> 01:25:39,120 Speaker 3: and running and doing it quite well, thank you very much. 1630 01:25:39,479 --> 01:25:43,920 Speaker 3: Medical marijuana company Puro has just signed a sixteen million 1631 01:25:43,960 --> 01:25:47,360 Speaker 3: dollar distribution deal in the United Kingdom, but they say 1632 01:25:47,479 --> 01:25:51,599 Speaker 3: red tape is stopping the company from selling domestically. Tim 1633 01:25:51,720 --> 01:25:57,720 Speaker 3: Aldridge is the CEO of pre PRUO and is with me. Now, Hi, Tim, 1634 01:25:57,800 --> 01:25:58,200 Speaker 3: how are you? 1635 01:25:59,360 --> 01:25:59,720 Speaker 1: I'm good? 1636 01:25:59,760 --> 01:26:04,479 Speaker 17: Thanks? Cur was enjoying that that we move debriefly a right, 1637 01:26:04,640 --> 01:26:06,439 Speaker 17: so it was to go check that one out. 1638 01:26:06,760 --> 01:26:09,439 Speaker 3: You will have to go and check it out, hey, Tim, 1639 01:26:10,080 --> 01:26:13,000 Speaker 3: So this congratulations on signing this distribution deal. By the way, 1640 01:26:13,080 --> 01:26:17,000 Speaker 3: that's massive, well done, But why can't you sell it here? 1641 01:26:18,200 --> 01:26:18,320 Speaker 18: Ah? 1642 01:26:18,439 --> 01:26:20,680 Speaker 17: Look so the I guess this time last year the 1643 01:26:20,760 --> 01:26:24,200 Speaker 17: regulations changed so we could export, which was obviously something 1644 01:26:24,240 --> 01:26:26,960 Speaker 17: we're very grateful for and is an amazing outcome for us. 1645 01:26:27,040 --> 01:26:29,080 Speaker 17: So and this in the last twelve months, we've been 1646 01:26:29,240 --> 01:26:33,280 Speaker 17: foot to the floor producing our products primarily for export markets. 1647 01:26:33,360 --> 01:26:35,840 Speaker 17: We do have some local supply here and sort of 1648 01:26:35,920 --> 01:26:40,360 Speaker 17: caveat not all cannabis is important, but almost. Also it's 1649 01:26:40,520 --> 01:26:43,040 Speaker 17: very very hard for local companies like us to bring 1650 01:26:43,120 --> 01:26:45,679 Speaker 17: our products to the market. In fact, it's just almost 1651 01:26:45,880 --> 01:26:48,760 Speaker 17: it's just commercially challenging. So I mean the neat part 1652 01:26:48,800 --> 01:26:51,560 Speaker 17: of that is obviously the export opportunities are enormous. The 1653 01:26:52,000 --> 01:26:55,320 Speaker 17: demand for our products and the reception we're received offshore 1654 01:26:55,479 --> 01:26:58,559 Speaker 17: for our products is incredible. But yes, as you say before, 1655 01:26:58,640 --> 01:27:01,800 Speaker 17: it's it's just too difficult to sort of navigate the 1656 01:27:01,880 --> 01:27:04,280 Speaker 17: regulatory environment here and it's a lot easier for us 1657 01:27:04,320 --> 01:27:06,320 Speaker 17: to focus on the larger export markets instead. 1658 01:27:06,760 --> 01:27:09,600 Speaker 3: So you manufacture it here but then export there, but 1659 01:27:09,720 --> 01:27:12,519 Speaker 3: you only have to make their standards, that is correct. 1660 01:27:12,560 --> 01:27:14,840 Speaker 17: So we're a grower, so we operate entirely in the 1661 01:27:14,920 --> 01:27:19,320 Speaker 17: primary industry, and there are no manufacturers here or packaging. 1662 01:27:19,600 --> 01:27:22,599 Speaker 17: Some companies here that can take our product and run 1663 01:27:22,640 --> 01:27:25,800 Speaker 17: it through what's not as a GMP process. So it's 1664 01:27:26,120 --> 01:27:28,120 Speaker 17: those sort of those companies and there are some facilities 1665 01:27:28,160 --> 01:27:30,320 Speaker 17: in the pipeline. Hopefully they can come online in the 1666 01:27:30,680 --> 01:27:33,040 Speaker 17: foreseeable future. But right here, right now, we have to 1667 01:27:33,080 --> 01:27:35,960 Speaker 17: send their products to Australia to be packaged and then 1668 01:27:36,000 --> 01:27:37,880 Speaker 17: obviously we could bring them back into the country, but 1669 01:27:38,439 --> 01:27:42,839 Speaker 17: it's just cumbersome and it's expensive and it's quite time consuming, 1670 01:27:43,200 --> 01:27:45,760 Speaker 17: and obviously they're already in the markets that we are 1671 01:27:45,880 --> 01:27:48,320 Speaker 17: really targeting. Anyway, it just makes sense commercial sense for 1672 01:27:48,439 --> 01:27:51,280 Speaker 17: us to focus on those markets. So we're in Australia 1673 01:27:51,280 --> 01:27:53,599 Speaker 17: at the moment. The products have been incredibly well received 1674 01:27:54,000 --> 01:27:56,120 Speaker 17: and as a touchop before just now it's the very 1675 01:27:56,200 --> 01:27:58,760 Speaker 17: last deal with IPS Farmer in the UK to take 1676 01:27:58,800 --> 01:28:02,000 Speaker 17: our products into lund and throughout the United Kingdom, and 1677 01:28:02,320 --> 01:28:05,200 Speaker 17: there's this amazing opportunity not only for Pure but also 1678 01:28:05,280 --> 01:28:07,080 Speaker 17: for the New Zealand industry to follow suit. 1679 01:28:07,200 --> 01:28:11,160 Speaker 3: Well, dumbass, So what who is it which government agencies 1680 01:28:11,240 --> 01:28:13,439 Speaker 3: specifically do we need to start hassling about this? 1681 01:28:14,920 --> 01:28:16,920 Speaker 17: So yeah, we obviously work with a lot of government 1682 01:28:16,920 --> 01:28:19,240 Speaker 17: agencies and I wouldn't minds stat of doing a shout 1683 01:28:19,240 --> 01:28:22,840 Speaker 17: out because there is left handed government that's been so 1684 01:28:23,080 --> 01:28:25,160 Speaker 17: so supportive for us. So we've got the New Zealand 1685 01:28:25,200 --> 01:28:28,800 Speaker 17: Trading Enterprise, the Ministry of Primary Industries and Treasury have 1686 01:28:28,960 --> 01:28:30,880 Speaker 17: been outstanding and we wouldn't be able to get to 1687 01:28:30,960 --> 01:28:32,680 Speaker 17: market and sort of achieve what we have achieved a 1688 01:28:32,760 --> 01:28:35,120 Speaker 17: date without their support. But on the other hand we 1689 01:28:35,240 --> 01:28:38,759 Speaker 17: sort of have aspects of government that are perhaps less supportive. 1690 01:28:39,200 --> 01:28:41,880 Speaker 17: So obviously the Ministry Health is our regulator, who on 1691 01:28:42,000 --> 01:28:44,720 Speaker 17: balance do do a good job. There's obviously some very 1692 01:28:44,720 --> 01:28:46,880 Speaker 17: good people in there. We have a wonderful relationship with. 1693 01:28:46,960 --> 01:28:52,200 Speaker 3: Them, throwing people under the bus, but yes, we would. 1694 01:28:51,960 --> 01:28:54,839 Speaker 17: Prefer if they could be a little bit more proactive 1695 01:28:54,920 --> 01:28:57,720 Speaker 17: and supportive of the sector, just to ensure that we, 1696 01:28:57,920 --> 01:29:00,160 Speaker 17: you know, here in New Zealand, we can obviously bring 1697 01:29:00,240 --> 01:29:02,439 Speaker 17: our products to market because yea, we've got nearly a 1698 01:29:02,520 --> 01:29:05,560 Speaker 17: thousand shoe holders with a huge community support. You know, 1699 01:29:05,600 --> 01:29:08,120 Speaker 17: we're wonderful sort of success story as far as you know, 1700 01:29:08,280 --> 01:29:11,080 Speaker 17: taking this new industry forward. And we get asked every 1701 01:29:11,120 --> 01:29:13,920 Speaker 17: single day from our community why aren't our products available here? 1702 01:29:13,960 --> 01:29:16,640 Speaker 17: For kiwis And sadly the simple answer is we're not 1703 01:29:16,680 --> 01:29:18,920 Speaker 17: allowed to. So that that does sit with the ministry 1704 01:29:19,000 --> 01:29:21,080 Speaker 17: healthy and obviously be a wonderful outcome if we could 1705 01:29:21,120 --> 01:29:25,519 Speaker 17: have a more pragmatic conversation with them to chieve some change. 1706 01:29:25,840 --> 01:29:28,280 Speaker 17: But until then, obviously we're very grateful to be able 1707 01:29:28,320 --> 01:29:31,519 Speaker 17: to export and you know, it's a very successful. 1708 01:29:31,200 --> 01:29:34,960 Speaker 3: Term, very diplomatically done. Well done on that. But also 1709 01:29:35,280 --> 01:29:36,720 Speaker 3: I think I know where to go and her to 1710 01:29:36,800 --> 01:29:39,760 Speaker 3: talk to. Do you think all of this, you know, 1711 01:29:39,920 --> 01:29:43,880 Speaker 3: the the not fear, well, I guess it is a 1712 01:29:43,920 --> 01:29:45,960 Speaker 3: bit of fear, but a bit of fear in the 1713 01:29:46,160 --> 01:29:48,960 Speaker 3: red tape comes from the fact that it comes from 1714 01:29:48,960 --> 01:29:51,840 Speaker 3: the fact that it's weed, and for a long time 1715 01:29:52,760 --> 01:29:55,120 Speaker 3: it was well it's still illegal now, but it was 1716 01:29:55,439 --> 01:29:57,599 Speaker 3: not to be used or even thought of for use, 1717 01:29:57,640 --> 01:30:00,320 Speaker 3: and suddenly we've changed the things and it's to take 1718 01:30:00,360 --> 01:30:01,559 Speaker 3: us a bit of time to catch up. 1719 01:30:03,600 --> 01:30:04,240 Speaker 1: That is correct. 1720 01:30:04,479 --> 01:30:06,000 Speaker 17: So there is a sort a lot of sort of 1721 01:30:06,280 --> 01:30:10,160 Speaker 17: prehistoric stigma and concern around there around the products and 1722 01:30:10,479 --> 01:30:12,840 Speaker 17: what we sort of have found that the New Zealand 1723 01:30:12,920 --> 01:30:14,920 Speaker 17: sort of I guess approach to regular in the industry 1724 01:30:15,040 --> 01:30:18,200 Speaker 17: is I didn't almost a bit uncertainty. So there is 1725 01:30:18,280 --> 01:30:21,639 Speaker 17: you know, an element of risk involved, and because they're 1726 01:30:21,640 --> 01:30:23,880 Speaker 17: not necessarily sure on how to manage that rest, they're 1727 01:30:23,880 --> 01:30:26,639 Speaker 17: come in with a variable sledge hemmer and and sort 1728 01:30:26,640 --> 01:30:30,479 Speaker 17: of effectively prevent us from accessing markets. So you're being 1729 01:30:30,560 --> 01:30:32,640 Speaker 17: on it is it is a case of a bit 1730 01:30:32,680 --> 01:30:34,519 Speaker 17: of bit of you know, a bit of history and 1731 01:30:34,600 --> 01:30:36,880 Speaker 17: a bit of an uncertainty from you know, from from 1732 01:30:36,920 --> 01:30:39,920 Speaker 17: the regulators and from aspects of government. But you know, 1733 01:30:40,000 --> 01:30:42,240 Speaker 17: we've sort of proven over the last few years. You know, 1734 01:30:42,400 --> 01:30:45,320 Speaker 17: the industry has been going for five years now and 1735 01:30:45,439 --> 01:30:47,360 Speaker 17: we've sort of gained the social license that is needed 1736 01:30:47,400 --> 01:30:49,439 Speaker 17: to you know, to build trust and relationships across all 1737 01:30:49,479 --> 01:30:52,519 Speaker 17: the aspects of government. And obviously we'd welcome a conversation 1738 01:30:52,680 --> 01:30:55,040 Speaker 17: with with our regulator and likewise of the Ministry for 1739 01:30:55,160 --> 01:30:58,160 Speaker 17: Regulations to you to allow some pragmatic change and allow 1740 01:30:58,280 --> 01:31:01,280 Speaker 17: kiwis to start accessing locally grow on products. 1741 01:31:01,400 --> 01:31:03,599 Speaker 3: In the meantime, Tim keep up the good work. Sounds 1742 01:31:03,640 --> 01:31:05,360 Speaker 3: like you're doing lots of it. Tim Aldridge with us 1743 01:31:05,439 --> 01:31:09,000 Speaker 3: the puro CEO.

Has it changed much? 1777 01:32:48,960 --> 01:32:49,120 Speaker 9: Well? 1778 01:32:49,520 --> 01:32:53,360 Speaker 25: King Charles's message saying that people stand united against those 1779 01:32:53,360 --> 01:32:56,559 Speaker 25: who would seek to divide us. Condemning the senseless acts 1780 01:32:56,600 --> 01:32:59,439 Speaker 25: of evil, The Prime Minister said that the country will 1781 01:32:59,560 --> 01:33:02,800 Speaker 25: unite to remember the lives lost and all those whose 1782 01:33:02,880 --> 01:33:06,200 Speaker 25: lives were changed forever. There were more than seven hundred 1783 01:33:06,280 --> 01:33:08,240 Speaker 25: run who were injured as well, some of them with 1784 01:33:08,439 --> 01:33:13,040 Speaker 25: life changing injuries. But these events today will also, i think, 1785 01:33:13,160 --> 01:33:17,400 Speaker 25: be looking at what has caused them already. A former 1786 01:33:17,920 --> 01:33:22,719 Speaker 25: senior police officer has described the fact that we can't 1787 01:33:22,800 --> 01:33:27,320 Speaker 25: deny that foreign policy can sometimes impact what happens here 1788 01:33:27,400 --> 01:33:30,000 Speaker 25: at home, of course, referring to the fact that Tony 1789 01:33:30,080 --> 01:33:33,960 Speaker 25: blairs foreign policy was led to blame by many for 1790 01:33:34,439 --> 01:33:37,000 Speaker 25: those attacks on the seventh of July. And currently, of course, 1791 01:33:37,080 --> 01:33:41,040 Speaker 25: the UK stance over what's happening between Israel in Gaza 1792 01:33:42,080 --> 01:33:42,880 Speaker 25: is another factor. 1793 01:33:43,840 --> 01:33:46,760 Speaker 3: Hey, what's going on with Poland the sending troops to 1794 01:33:46,840 --> 01:33:48,519 Speaker 3: the border with Germany. What's that about? 1795 01:33:49,479 --> 01:33:52,560 Speaker 25: Yeah, five thousand troops and potentially as well as some 1796 01:33:52,760 --> 01:33:55,479 Speaker 25: drones surveillance operators as well. 1797 01:33:55,960 --> 01:33:57,439 Speaker 9: This is all over a row. 1798 01:33:57,439 --> 01:33:59,880 Speaker 25: That has been going up between the governments in Wars 1799 01:34:00,280 --> 01:34:03,640 Speaker 25: and Berlin in how to deal with refugees trying to 1800 01:34:03,680 --> 01:34:06,639 Speaker 25: cross between the two countries. Now, for a long time, 1801 01:34:07,320 --> 01:34:11,600 Speaker 25: Poland has been blaming Russia and Belarus for what it 1802 01:34:11,680 --> 01:34:16,160 Speaker 25: believes is an orchestrated influx of migrants. In other words, 1803 01:34:16,200 --> 01:34:20,240 Speaker 25: it's being alleged that Russia and Belarus are basically coaching 1804 01:34:20,880 --> 01:34:23,880 Speaker 25: migrants to the border and then encouraging them to get 1805 01:34:23,920 --> 01:34:29,839 Speaker 25: into Poland and other Eastern European countries. Now, both Belarus 1806 01:34:29,880 --> 01:34:32,759 Speaker 25: and Russia deny that, but it has led to a sudden, 1807 01:34:33,160 --> 01:34:36,240 Speaker 25: massive spike in the number of people from the East 1808 01:34:36,439 --> 01:34:40,880 Speaker 25: trying to seek asylum in those countries. And it means 1809 01:34:40,960 --> 01:34:44,160 Speaker 25: that sort of some migrants have literally been going ping 1810 01:34:44,240 --> 01:34:48,600 Speaker 25: pong across the two countries of Poland and Germany and 1811 01:34:48,720 --> 01:34:51,680 Speaker 25: the Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk's liberal government has been 1812 01:34:51,760 --> 01:34:56,040 Speaker 25: accused by opposition parties there of accepting numerous illegal migrants 1813 01:34:56,360 --> 01:35:00,679 Speaker 25: being sent back to Poland from Germany. Now to narrowly 1814 01:35:00,760 --> 01:35:03,760 Speaker 25: survived a confidence vote in the Polish parliament, but the 1815 01:35:03,880 --> 01:35:07,680 Speaker 25: president elect has campaigned on a promise to ensure that 1816 01:35:07,880 --> 01:35:14,600 Speaker 25: basically policies favor polls over all other nationalities, including Ukrainian refugees. 1817 01:35:14,720 --> 01:35:16,800 Speaker 9: So a big, big change here. 1818 01:35:16,720 --> 01:35:18,560 Speaker 25: At the heart of you at workhose we're supposed to 1819 01:35:18,600 --> 01:35:20,280 Speaker 25: have complete free movement of people. 1820 01:35:20,800 --> 01:35:23,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, interesting development, isn't it now? Nineteen twenty three the 1821 01:35:23,960 --> 01:35:26,360 Speaker 3: last time that people swam in the sein and outside 1822 01:35:26,400 --> 01:35:29,960 Speaker 3: of the Olympics, and now it's open for everybody apparently. 1823 01:35:30,040 --> 01:35:31,720 Speaker 3: Will you be having a dip given. 1824 01:35:32,280 --> 01:35:34,639 Speaker 25: Ah ha ah No, I don't think I will. Still 1825 01:35:34,680 --> 01:35:37,000 Speaker 25: a bit brown and murky for me. But the first, 1826 01:35:37,360 --> 01:35:40,800 Speaker 25: very hardy, adventurous swimmers have been in for their dip. 1827 01:35:41,520 --> 01:35:44,200 Speaker 25: So the ban came in in nineteen twenty three basically 1828 01:35:44,280 --> 01:35:48,560 Speaker 25: because of pollution, and the French government spent an enormous 1829 01:35:48,600 --> 01:35:53,759 Speaker 25: amount of money roughly two point eight billion New Zealand 1830 01:35:53,840 --> 01:35:56,920 Speaker 25: dollars to tidy up the River Saine. The problem is 1831 01:35:57,000 --> 01:35:59,439 Speaker 25: it's an old structure, rather like the Thames, and a 1832 01:35:59,479 --> 01:36:03,320 Speaker 25: lot of fluent and fecal material ends up going into 1833 01:36:03,439 --> 01:36:05,840 Speaker 25: the river. Now they managed to stop a lot of that, 1834 01:36:06,479 --> 01:36:09,000 Speaker 25: and it is certainly better than it was as the 1835 01:36:09,120 --> 01:36:12,040 Speaker 25: Thames is much better. But would I go in for 1836 01:36:12,120 --> 01:36:14,040 Speaker 25: a dip, No, I don't think so. But this has 1837 01:36:14,080 --> 01:36:17,720 Speaker 25: been a huge project, part incidentally of the promise to 1838 01:36:17,880 --> 01:36:21,160 Speaker 25: the Olympic authorities that there would be a legacy following 1839 01:36:21,240 --> 01:36:24,200 Speaker 25: last year's Olympics, that they were going to make the 1840 01:36:24,320 --> 01:36:27,559 Speaker 25: river quality much better. But still I think with heavy rain, 1841 01:36:28,200 --> 01:36:31,840 Speaker 25: I'm afraid some of that sort of excess water tends 1842 01:36:31,840 --> 01:36:34,080 Speaker 25: to be washed in to the river with a whole 1843 01:36:34,080 --> 01:36:36,280 Speaker 25: load of other things that we weren't mentioned, which did 1844 01:36:36,400 --> 01:36:38,800 Speaker 25: lead to some very nasty stomach bugs in the past. 1845 01:36:38,840 --> 01:36:42,240 Speaker 25: But nevertheless, always good to see some environmental measures. But 1846 01:36:42,360 --> 01:36:45,120 Speaker 25: I have to say the bill seems inordinately high. 1847 01:36:45,360 --> 01:36:47,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, totally out of WEK, doesn't it.
