1 00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:06,400 Speaker 1: Digging through the spin spins to find the real story. 2 00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:10,720 Speaker 1: Oring It's Heather Dupercy on drive with One New Zealand 3 00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:13,160 Speaker 1: let's get connected news talks. 4 00:00:13,160 --> 00:00:13,480 Speaker 2: That'd be. 5 00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:18,079 Speaker 3: Good afternoon. Welcome to the show. Coming up today, AID 6 00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:20,599 Speaker 3: is finally getting into gaza again. We're going to chat 7 00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:24,200 Speaker 3: to doctors without borders about that life expectancy bad news. 8 00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:27,320 Speaker 3: Life expectancy for people who sleep too much is actually 9 00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:29,240 Speaker 3: worse than for those who don't sleep enough. We'll have 10 00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:31,120 Speaker 3: a chat to sleep expert to figure that one out. 11 00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:33,199 Speaker 3: And Nikola Willis is with us as per usual on 12 00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:34,160 Speaker 3: a Monday after six. 13 00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:36,440 Speaker 4: Heather Duperic out right, Well, the news of. 14 00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:39,720 Speaker 3: The day politically is that surcharges are gone. The government's 15 00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:42,159 Speaker 3: just banned them. You know what I'm talking about here, right. 16 00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:45,000 Speaker 3: They are the little extra amount that you get pinged 17 00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:46,519 Speaker 3: when you turn up at the dairy and you use 18 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:49,919 Speaker 3: your credit card or you use your payWave. Gone from 19 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:54,440 Speaker 3: May next year. And the big cell behind this basically 20 00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:55,800 Speaker 3: is that it's to help you with the cost of 21 00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:59,240 Speaker 3: living crisis. Now, I hate to do this because I 22 00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:02,000 Speaker 3: know you're thinking, yeah, and I'm totally going to rain 23 00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:04,120 Speaker 3: on that parade for you. Don't get excited. This is 24 00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:06,160 Speaker 3: going to fix nothing. You are still going to end 25 00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:09,240 Speaker 3: up paying that cost somehow, probably just through the cost 26 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:11,120 Speaker 3: of the bottle of milk that you're buying. It'll be 27 00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:14,520 Speaker 3: in there now, or your haircut or your sushi or 28 00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:16,319 Speaker 3: whatever it is. It's going to be built into the 29 00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:19,400 Speaker 3: price because the business still has the cost. Nothing is 30 00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:22,080 Speaker 3: changing there. They've still got to pay that merchant fee. Now, 31 00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:24,560 Speaker 3: a merchant fee is a very complicated set of charges 32 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,320 Speaker 3: which the business gets lumped with, and most businesses actually 33 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:30,400 Speaker 3: have bloody no idea what makes up that merchant fee. 34 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:32,880 Speaker 3: There's a fee from the credit card companies, there's a 35 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 3: feed fee for moving money from the banks, there's the 36 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:37,760 Speaker 3: f post providers. The whole thing gets lumped into the 37 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:41,319 Speaker 3: merchant fee. That has not gone away. What's only gone 38 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:43,959 Speaker 3: away is the business's ability to be able to recover 39 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:46,640 Speaker 3: the cost of some of that through the surcharge. And 40 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 3: by the way, the cost of that thing is actually 41 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 3: quite big. I mean, I've read about one business, just 42 00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:56,680 Speaker 3: one shop, that pays about fourteen thousand dollars in a 43 00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 3: year just for that, just for the merchant fee, just 44 00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 3: to be able to do business. Electronically. Now that what's 45 00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 3: going to happen if you go to that shop is 46 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 3: because that guy can't now pass it on to you 47 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:08,000 Speaker 3: with a two percent, zero point seven percent one percent 48 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 3: surcharge or whatever. He's simply going to add it to 49 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:12,399 Speaker 3: the cost of his product, so that across the year 50 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:16,359 Speaker 3: he makes that fourteen thousand dollars back. Also why you 51 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 3: shouldn't get excited about it is that this ban does 52 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:21,360 Speaker 3: not include anything that you buy online. You're buying your 53 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 3: air New Zealand tickets, Yep, you're still going to be 54 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 3: paying that little six dollar handling fee. You're buying some 55 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:28,359 Speaker 3: tickets for a concert from ticket Master. Maybe you want 56 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:30,400 Speaker 3: to head along to banksy go check that out. Yep, 57 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 3: you're still going to be paying yourself a little a nice, 58 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:34,440 Speaker 3: little eight dollar handling fee. And the problem with that 59 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 3: is that these are some of the most egregious examples 60 00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:39,440 Speaker 3: I would have thought of surcharges just bearing no resemblance 61 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:43,440 Speaker 3: to reality. But they still slip through this. So instead 62 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 3: of actually sorting out the back room problems and the 63 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 3: real NARI issues and what has been charged by the 64 00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:50,320 Speaker 3: banks and the FPOs companies and the credit card companies, 65 00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 3: and really excessive surcharges. The government's just taken the easy 66 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:55,800 Speaker 3: option and brought in a ban on the little stuff 67 00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 3: you buy from the dairy good headline. Unfortunately though just 68 00:02:58,800 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 3: a charade. 69 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:05,360 Speaker 4: Heather do for ce Ellen when signs then. 70 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:08,799 Speaker 3: This is the angels. I'm going to come back to 71 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:10,240 Speaker 3: this and except we've just got to deal with some 72 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 3: serious news. By the way, nine two ninety two is 73 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:15,520 Speaker 3: the text number good news if you hate scaffolding. Health 74 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 3: and Safety Minister Brook van Velden has announced that not 75 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:20,919 Speaker 3: all maintenance at height will be required to use scaffolding 76 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 3: in their work. Minister is going to be consulting with 77 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 3: the industry to figure out exactly how to do this. 78 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:28,960 Speaker 3: Julian Lais is the chief executive at the Building Industry Federation. 79 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,320 Speaker 5: Hey Julian, Hey, heathern how are you well? 80 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 3: Thank you mate. So if Brook comes to you and says, right, 81 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 3: how do we change it? What do we do? What 82 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 3: are you going to say to her? 83 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 6: Oh, look, I'd say Brooke, it's all about the detail. 84 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 6: And so what we want to do is ensure of 85 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:45,320 Speaker 6: course health and safety, but also reduce some of the costs. 86 00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 6: And every everyone hates scaffolding as much as they hate 87 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 6: road cones. But we shouldn't forget that. You know that 88 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 6: scaffolding there is there for a reason, and you know 89 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 6: any height can be dangerous social. 90 00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 3: No, Julian, you're not that guy. Ask you? 91 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:00,240 Speaker 7: Are you? 92 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 8: Like? 93 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:02,720 Speaker 3: Oh you're standing? Oh look that you're half a meter 94 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 3: off the ground. We need some scaffolding for you. Are 95 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 3: you that guy? 96 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 6: I'm saying we need to be mindful that we don't 97 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 6: put pace before prudence and make these reforms. I think 98 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 6: there's are balance and so I think we should say. 99 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 3: I agree with you, we've gone way too far in 100 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 3: the other direction, wouldn't you agree? 101 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 6: I think we have to some extent. I think so 102 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 6: this is about sort of bringing back a middle ground 103 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:26,360 Speaker 6: where we don't do away with those things that were 104 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 6: put in there in place for a reason, and we 105 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 6: shouldn't forget hither that most people then end up in 106 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:33,359 Speaker 6: eds are blokes that are falling off ladders, right, so. 107 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:37,479 Speaker 3: Are they starting? I don't want to protect stone people 108 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:38,240 Speaker 3: like this is the thing? 109 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:38,480 Speaker 7: Right? 110 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:40,600 Speaker 3: I think so one day that this is the worst 111 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:42,920 Speaker 3: example for me. You have been to Wellington, you right, 112 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 3: you drive along Evans Bay Parade, you got those little 113 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:48,279 Speaker 3: little boat houses there I was driving bass wood like 114 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 3: when the boathouses, when the little I don't know my 115 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 3: building terms, you know, you're the apex of the roof, 116 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:54,840 Speaker 3: and then it goes down to the bottom like sort 117 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 3: of the easy bit, and that two of them joined, 118 00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:59,479 Speaker 3: and there was the triangle at the bottom, you know, 119 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 3: like the gully of the roof if you want to 120 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,560 Speaker 3: call it. That that thing wouldn't be far off my shoulder, right, 121 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 3: and they had scaffolding to work on that. That's silly, 122 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 3: isn't it. 123 00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 6: Well indeed, so look, the Minister will be consulting with 124 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:16,719 Speaker 6: the industry and there will be you know, hopefully standards 125 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 6: and a guidance that says for certain low risk activity. 126 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:23,040 Speaker 6: Then as long as you've got these other things in place, 127 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:27,280 Speaker 6: which might be ladders with braces or you know, a harness, 128 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,840 Speaker 6: that that's a good compromise. So I think let's wait 129 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 6: and see what But I think we will see you 130 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 6: be sharing, along with Chas and the other Health and 131 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 6: Safety body, some clear practical guides that hopefully achieve a 132 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 6: middle grade Gillian. 133 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 3: Don't you think that for the most part we could 134 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 3: get around the safety issue with a harness and not 135 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 3: require massive amounts of scaffolding. 136 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:54,440 Speaker 6: Well, it all depends on the nature of the project, 137 00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:57,160 Speaker 6: how big it is, how high it is. So in 138 00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 6: some cases it might be you know, if it's a know, 139 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 6: being done on an existing residential house, possibly yes, like 140 00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 6: like your example in Evans Bay, if you're working at 141 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 6: four or five stories, probably not okay. 142 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:12,279 Speaker 3: So I think I think most of it well, I 143 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:14,480 Speaker 3: think we probably would agree with each other. But but 144 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 3: I'm not I'm not loving the fact that you came 145 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:18,039 Speaker 3: in kind of with a negative attitude. So are you 146 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 3: going to be like, are you going to be the 147 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 3: breaks on brooks Idea? 148 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:24,120 Speaker 6: Are you not the breaks? Just just the voice of 149 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 6: sanity Heather. 150 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:27,719 Speaker 3: No, this is the wrong thing to say, now, really 151 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 3: you are going to be the breaks. 152 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 9: Hey. 153 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:32,080 Speaker 3: By the way, I love what's going on with the 154 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 3: jib board and all these alternative products you know, from 155 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 3: from from from other parts of the world where you 156 00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:39,600 Speaker 3: know we have we have similar thinking probably would be 157 00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 3: how much confidence do we have that the likes of 158 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:46,039 Speaker 3: Bunnings and Mighty ten are actually going to stock them? 159 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 6: Oh? Look, I think you know they will stock what 160 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:52,840 Speaker 6: what what the merchants want? Sorry, what the trade's want? 161 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 6: And what the specifies the architects and others want known. 162 00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:00,200 Speaker 6: That's know, if it's available in the market, they will 163 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 6: bring it in, and they will bring it in if 164 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 6: it's good quality, and if it's at a certain price, 165 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 6: it'll come in. 166 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:07,760 Speaker 3: Do you think that this is good? Because if I 167 00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 3: was a builder, I just, you know, to be honest, 168 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 3: I'd probably I'd have enough things going on in my 169 00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:14,240 Speaker 3: life not to have to worry about whether I'm going 170 00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:16,600 Speaker 3: to get alternative jib, so I'll just stick with what 171 00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:18,760 Speaker 3: I know. So if everybody just sticks with what they know, 172 00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 3: nothing changes. So is this going to rely on the 173 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 3: customer to actually start agitating. 174 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 6: Yes, I think it'll rely on It will rely on 175 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 6: the homeowners and customers, but it'll flow through the entire 176 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:31,360 Speaker 6: supply chain. So it's going to be you know, as 177 00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:35,320 Speaker 6: I say, the the architects as well, including the builders, 178 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:37,760 Speaker 6: because there'll be a bit of awareness on their part. 179 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:41,200 Speaker 6: They'll they'll want to try alternative products if they are cheaper, 180 00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 6: but if they still meet code. So it's not going 181 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 6: to happen overnight. But I think it just means that 182 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 6: people will have greater choice as long as you know, 183 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 6: the system allows us to judge those criteria accordingly and 184 00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:57,559 Speaker 6: we don't get you know, dodgy product coming into the market. 185 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:00,200 Speaker 3: Julian, thanks very much, appreciate your time. That's Julian as 186 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 3: chief executive of the Building Industry Federation. Hither you are 187 00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 3: an economic retard. Thank you. I think that's got to 188 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 3: do with surcharges. Hither, I don't even have a choice 189 00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 3: now not to pay the charges by not using the payWave. 190 00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 3: I'm not happy this is this is part of the problem. 191 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:17,720 Speaker 3: We'll come back to that. Well, that's part of the 192 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 3: problem anyway. By the way, did you realize if you're 193 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 3: into the MUCHA craze, did you realize that MUCHA is 194 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 3: like this is next level? How nuts MUCHA is. At 195 00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 3: the moment in the US, the retailers are running out 196 00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 3: of a month's supply worth of MUCHA in days. In Japan, 197 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 3: retailers have set limits on how much customers can buy, 198 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:41,160 Speaker 3: mainly tourists turning up there. Apparently what's happened is because 199 00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,280 Speaker 3: we've all been traveling to Japan because Japan is super 200 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:46,000 Speaker 3: cool at the moment. Everybody's been going there and going, oh, 201 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:49,560 Speaker 3: look at this spicy green drink. That's just so colorful 202 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:52,719 Speaker 3: and exciting, and then they come back they stick it 203 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:55,080 Speaker 3: on their socials. The socials has gone nuts and everybody's 204 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:57,199 Speaker 3: into the mutsha, which is fantastic because it's very healthy 205 00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:00,280 Speaker 3: for you, but it is it's a bit crazy. At 206 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:02,040 Speaker 3: the minute sixteen past four. 207 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:06,679 Speaker 1: It's the Heather Topsy Allen Drive Full Show podcast on 208 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 1: iHeartRadio powered by News Talk z B. 209 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:12,559 Speaker 3: Hither our tutor twisted off the bottom step of a 210 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:15,520 Speaker 3: ladder and broke his back. Accidents happened to change his life, 211 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:19,640 Speaker 3: and your scoffing at safety, yes, well, please note though 212 00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:23,359 Speaker 3: that your tutor hurt himself on a ladder, not scaffolding 213 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 3: or not without I mean, maybe, what is the solution 214 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 3: to this problem that you have presented to us? Should 215 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:30,240 Speaker 3: we take ladders away from everybody to be uber safe? 216 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:30,440 Speaker 10: Now? 217 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:32,000 Speaker 3: Nineteen past four. 218 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 1: Sport with tab bed live within play. 219 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:44,560 Speaker 3: Be responsibly Jason Pine's sports talk host Halo Piney, Hello, Heather. 220 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,320 Speaker 3: Are the Warriors a top four side. 221 00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:47,600 Speaker 11: At the moment? 222 00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:47,959 Speaker 12: They are? 223 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:49,959 Speaker 11: I'm looking at the table and there they are tucked 224 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 11: into fourth spot. But but and this is the big butt. 225 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 11: The lost of the Titans the other day was not 226 00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:59,600 Speaker 11: particularly helpful, and the Pack are closing in And when 227 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 11: I say that, it's the Panthers who are closing and 228 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:04,840 Speaker 11: they've won seven in a row. Now, the Panthers, they 229 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 11: are only three points behind the Warriors with six games 230 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:10,960 Speaker 11: to go, And it just feels to me as though 231 00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 11: there are some stumbles going on here in Warriors Land 232 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:16,200 Speaker 11: as we as we head towards the end of the season. 233 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 11: They were so good earlier on in the season and 234 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:20,199 Speaker 11: we all said, yep, this is a top four side, 235 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:22,040 Speaker 11: This is a team that can actually go all the 236 00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:25,319 Speaker 11: way potentially. Now they are really fighting for their spot 237 00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:27,600 Speaker 11: in that top four. I think the Panthers will make it. 238 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:30,120 Speaker 11: The Warriors have to beat the Dolphins at home on 239 00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:33,959 Speaker 11: Friday night and then massive game against the Bulldogs away 240 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 11: in a couple of weeks. I think if they can 241 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 11: win those two then we can start talking about them 242 00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 11: in top four terms again. But it is less certain 243 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:43,400 Speaker 11: than it was a week while ago. 244 00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:45,559 Speaker 3: So what do you I mean? Did I or did 245 00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 3: I not predict this for you? That they would play 246 00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:48,960 Speaker 3: well and then at the back half of the season 247 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 3: they just like they always do. So this is all 248 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:53,840 Speaker 3: in their head, isn't it. This is completely in their head. 249 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:56,920 Speaker 11: Part of it is I think there's also the injuries concerns. 250 00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 11: But having said that, every team faces injuries and there 251 00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:02,440 Speaker 11: are fact of life in a physical sport like rugby league. 252 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:04,760 Speaker 11: They are missing some key players Luke Metcalf gone. That 253 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:08,520 Speaker 11: is very unhelpful, Mitch Barnett as well. Kurt Capele's got 254 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 11: to play in the centers at the moment, which isn't 255 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:15,079 Speaker 11: his position. So yeah, there are extenuating circumstances. But what 256 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 11: your hope, Heather, is that it's not on their heads 257 00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:19,880 Speaker 11: that they can say, you know what, we can and 258 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:23,080 Speaker 11: will play better for these last six games. Because if 259 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:25,240 Speaker 11: they're outside the top four, it's very hard to go 260 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:28,040 Speaker 11: deep into the playoffs. It really is difficult. So they've 261 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:29,080 Speaker 11: got to find a way to get there. 262 00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:31,080 Speaker 3: Hey, by the way, listen, I could keep talking about 263 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:32,720 Speaker 3: the worries, but I need to talk about what happened 264 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:35,920 Speaker 3: to the Wallabies. Were the Wallabies hard done by or 265 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:39,200 Speaker 3: actually could that player that player could not have got 266 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:40,400 Speaker 3: any lower? Could they? 267 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:41,320 Speaker 13: Yeah? 268 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:45,199 Speaker 11: Jack Morgan coming in will. Opinion is absolutely divided on this. 269 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:49,079 Speaker 11: CEO of Australian Rugby, Phil war former player himself, has 270 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:52,240 Speaker 11: demanded a please explain. I'm not sure why people do 271 00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 11: this because it's not going to change things. It's not 272 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 11: going to change the result. Jack Morgan was very low 273 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 11: the British and Irish lines player coming in. But the 274 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 11: fact remains he didn't wrap both of his arms and 275 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 11: he hit Tazarno on the neck, which you're not allowed 276 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:08,000 Speaker 11: to do. 277 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:11,720 Speaker 3: So how much of his arms did he wrap? He rapped? 278 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 11: From what his left arms on the ground. Either, he 279 00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:16,320 Speaker 11: hasn't wrapped his left arm at all. His right arm 280 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:18,839 Speaker 11: is probably wrapped. It's a bit obscured by the camera, 281 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 11: but he hasn't wrapped his left arm. 282 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 3: Okay, is that because I can't remember that? But is 283 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:26,760 Speaker 3: that because he's deliberately fowling or is it simply when 284 00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:28,920 Speaker 3: he's down there, suddenly he's off balance and he's having 285 00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:30,079 Speaker 3: to put it on the ground. 286 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:32,559 Speaker 11: Well, that's his responsibility. If he doesn't think he can 287 00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:34,160 Speaker 11: retain balance, he shouldn't be going in. 288 00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:37,160 Speaker 3: There is a thought also he hit hit the other 289 00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:40,480 Speaker 3: bloke on the neck. What is that not one of 290 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:43,400 Speaker 3: those ones where you go look, there will be collisions accidentally. 291 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 3: It's not deliberate, but it happens. 292 00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:47,560 Speaker 11: You can say that, but will Rugby have been adamant 293 00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:51,320 Speaker 11: that regardless of whether it's intentional or accidental, any contact 294 00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:54,199 Speaker 11: above the shoulders is punishable by a penalty and a 295 00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:54,959 Speaker 11: yellow cars. 296 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:57,560 Speaker 3: That brought a frustration with Rugby and for once actually 297 00:12:57,600 --> 00:12:59,840 Speaker 3: that had some common sense and said, this guy couldn't 298 00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:02,079 Speaker 3: have done apart from wrapping the arms a bit more, 299 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:03,320 Speaker 3: couldn't have done anything else. 300 00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:06,400 Speaker 11: I think the frustration is that we're still now arguing 301 00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:08,600 Speaker 11: gray area or around the law. You know, they've tried 302 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 11: to make it safer and we still don't know what 303 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:13,320 Speaker 11: the law is. We don't know why. You know, a 304 00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:16,480 Speaker 11: similar situation led to a red card to broder Retelic 305 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 11: a couple of years ago, and this one isn't even 306 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:21,040 Speaker 11: a penalty. So it's the gray area that is the 307 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 11: confusing bit. 308 00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 3: Piney, good to talk to you. You're going to have 309 00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,560 Speaker 3: an absolute stonker of a show at seven o'clock.

Fortunately, 378 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:39,800 Speaker 3: over the weekend it seems to have been a reasonable 379 00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 3: amount of international pressure has finally forced Israel to stopp 380 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:47,480 Speaker 3: being as cruel as it frankly has been. They will 381 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:51,240 Speaker 3: now allow some air drops of food, and also they 382 00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:53,600 Speaker 3: will have ten hour windows where they pause the fighting 383 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:56,440 Speaker 3: in order to allow the aid. And now look, it 384 00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 3: is as you can imagine in war. It is incredibly complicated, 385 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:03,480 Speaker 3: and there are reports comass is stealing food or whatever. 386 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:04,879 Speaker 3: We're going to try to get to the bottom of 387 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:08,280 Speaker 3: the Doctors without Borders they'll be with us after five o'clock. 388 00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:11,120 Speaker 3: But in the meantime at least some good and air 389 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:16,200 Speaker 3: drops are incredibly dangerous. Anybody who's worked in AID will 390 00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:18,440 Speaker 3: tell you that because they can land on people, people 391 00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:21,600 Speaker 3: rush at them. There's no kind of there's just no 392 00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:23,920 Speaker 3: cohesion about how it happens.

That's how it works. 452 00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:26,480 Speaker 3: Also, the Veronica's untouched at number three, that's a crime. Yeah, 453 00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:30,200 Speaker 3: big time. I want you just go on, yeah, hi, Now, 454 00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:34,879 Speaker 3: I actually have been quietly, very pleased at Albanese's stance 455 00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:36,960 Speaker 3: on Israel. What's the coalition's problem with it? 456 00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:41,399 Speaker 19: Well, they're saying that albo has to be careful in 457 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:45,760 Speaker 19: his assertion that Israel is breaching international law. And I 458 00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:48,040 Speaker 19: think the point you just made there about Albanize even 459 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:52,159 Speaker 19: yesterday asking you to follow France and acknowledged Palestine, he 460 00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:54,520 Speaker 19: said not while Hamas is still at the heart of 461 00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:56,879 Speaker 19: the government in Palestine. And I think that's probably the 462 00:20:56,920 --> 00:20:58,520 Speaker 19: response which most people here would agree with. 463 00:20:58,560 --> 00:20:59,000 Speaker 1: I think you can. 464 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:01,960 Speaker 19: I think you can critics both countries, both both states 465 00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:05,080 Speaker 19: or countries here in this circumstance. Head but Dantee and 466 00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:07,120 Speaker 19: he wants the Prime Minister to back up the claim 467 00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:10,480 Speaker 19: that Israel's breached international law by blocking aid into Gaza, 468 00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:12,680 Speaker 19: and he's pointing the finger at her musk for the 469 00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:17,040 Speaker 19: situation in Gaza, the terror group is weaponizing AID. I 470 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:20,800 Speaker 19: think it's an interesting stance for Danteine to take in 471 00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:28,320 Speaker 19: the opposition benches. The Labor wants to recognize Palestine. 472 00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:28,840 Speaker 8: It does. 473 00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:30,639 Speaker 19: It took that to the last two elections, so it 474 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:33,359 Speaker 19: is something which is obviously internally for the government as 475 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:35,280 Speaker 19: well troubling because they need to do something about it, 476 00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:37,159 Speaker 19: or there's a lot of pressure for the Prime ministers. 477 00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:37,359 Speaker 9: To do something. 478 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:39,440 Speaker 19: But as he said, yes, I'm not acknowledging it until 479 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:44,439 Speaker 19: her mus is not there as the ruling majority in Palestine. 480 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 19: So this is again interesting stance that Danteene has taken. 481 00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:51,760 Speaker 19: I can understand that the coalition has very much been 482 00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:56,400 Speaker 19: backing Israel through the entire process and has always said 483 00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:56,840 Speaker 19: that they will. 484 00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:58,119 Speaker 3: Stand shoulder to shoulder with Israel. 485 00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:00,360 Speaker 19: But an interesting stance from Danteene. 486 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:00,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, very much. 487 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:00,800 Speaker 17: So. 488 00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:03,639 Speaker 3: Now, who's the former TV host charged with touching the 489 00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:04,680 Speaker 3: sixteen year old boy. 490 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:07,720 Speaker 19: So this is Peter Everett, who was big on Australian 491 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:09,879 Speaker 19: screens through the late nineties early two thousands. He was 492 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:12,280 Speaker 19: on a show called Changing Rooms, which is like a 493 00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:15,679 Speaker 19: renovation show, and you know, we've seen plenty of versions 494 00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:17,359 Speaker 19: of those sorts of shows.

I really the level of 566 00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:30,800 Speaker 12: booing was very low compared to what I've seen of 567 00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:34,159 Speaker 12: prime ministers in the past. But would you expect it 568 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:35,439 Speaker 12: at a netball final. 569 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:36,520 Speaker 6: I don't know. 570 00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:38,040 Speaker 12: I think it was pretty good of the Prime Minister 571 00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:39,680 Speaker 12: to turn up. I don't think there would be many 572 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:42,360 Speaker 12: prime ministers that would turn up and sit through the match. 573 00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:45,440 Speaker 12: I mean, it's a great match obviously, but look, he 574 00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:49,399 Speaker 12: wasn't too concerned about being booed. Chris likes and says 575 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:51,040 Speaker 12: didn't surprise him greatly. 576 00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:55,320 Speaker 15: Oh look, it's not uncommon for politicians to be booed 577 00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:55,919 Speaker 15: at some events. 578 00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 16: But I just say I was treated really well. 579 00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:00,520 Speaker 15: People were very very nice to me event, and they 580 00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:03,000 Speaker 15: often are across the whole of the country. I don't 581 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:04,800 Speaker 15: want that to take away from what was an absolutely 582 00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:07,359 Speaker 15: fantastic game between the mystics and the tactics, and for 583 00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:09,000 Speaker 15: the tactics to come through and when they hadn't done 584 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:10,960 Speaker 15: for a long time was pretty special. You know, there's 585 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:13,920 Speaker 15: always elements that will be frustrated with government. I get 586 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:15,800 Speaker 15: that that goes with being a politician. 587 00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:16,440 Speaker 6: Yep. 588 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:17,119 Speaker 19: So there you go. 589 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:19,280 Speaker 12: He's taking it in astride, which. 590 00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:21,119 Speaker 3: Come on, Berry stopping like this.

Prouple of 599 00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 3: lefties and it's very working for class. 600 00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:48,119 Speaker 12: We've all left leading, I said, the the people that 601 00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:48,840 Speaker 12: turn up to watch. 602 00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:52,920 Speaker 3: When we called Jenny Woods to confirm whether you are correct, 603 00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:55,520 Speaker 3: what is should she and all of those she's like 604 00:26:55,680 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 3: the voice of netball because it's just as you heard 605 00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:04,639 Speaker 3: last night. But listen, Barry, in all seriousness, regardless of 606 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:10,240 Speaker 3: you know anyway, regardless, the thing is, if a prime 607 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:13,440 Speaker 3: minister is turning up eighteen months into his prime ministership 608 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:16,119 Speaker 3: to a crowd full of mums who listened to Coats 609 00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:18,600 Speaker 3: right and getting booed, that's not that's not a good 610 00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:19,200 Speaker 3: looking Well. 611 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:19,680 Speaker 7: I'll tell you what. 612 00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:22,480 Speaker 12: The first quarter of an hour of today's press conference 613 00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:25,600 Speaker 12: and I thought, really, you know, you shouldn't do this 614 00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:27,840 Speaker 12: as a press conference because you meant to be there 615 00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:31,040 Speaker 12: answering questions. First fifteen minutes were spent on what they've 616 00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:34,520 Speaker 12: done over the past year for the economy too long. Yeah, 617 00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:37,800 Speaker 12: they've got to have some advice that it's a press conference, 618 00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:38,679 Speaker 12: it's not a speech. 619 00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:40,440 Speaker 3: Do you not think though, if you're going and I 620 00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:43,360 Speaker 3: think where this Netwell game was being held is really important, 621 00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 3: right it's in west Auckland. West Auckland is the place 622 00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:47,480 Speaker 3: you have to win if you want to win an election. 623 00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:51,000 Speaker 3: But also a bunch of tradees they think like normal people. 624 00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:52,720 Speaker 3: So the fact that he's been done to that extent 625 00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:53,840 Speaker 3: I think is reasonably sir. 626 00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:56,120 Speaker 12: Okay, drive home the point here, but you're not making 627 00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:56,399 Speaker 12: it to me. 628 00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:59,040 Speaker 3: But that's fine anyway, whatever. Okay, talk to me then 629 00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:01,480 Speaker 3: about what's going on with the merchants. But the merchant 630 00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:03,919 Speaker 3: fee that's been and the searcharges, I'm not convinced by 631 00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:04,479 Speaker 3: Big Well. 632 00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:06,680 Speaker 12: The big problem is something that's always been one of 633 00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:08,440 Speaker 12: my bug bears, as you well know. When you go 634 00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:11,080 Speaker 12: to pay a restaurant bill and you see six bucks 635 00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:13,000 Speaker 12: or whatever added on to the end of the bill 636 00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:16,480 Speaker 12: because you've got to pay for your credit card use. Yeah, 637 00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:18,760 Speaker 12: I think that's outrageous. And I've said so on this 638 00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:22,200 Speaker 12: program before. So they're doing away with those. But then 639 00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:27,159 Speaker 12: who picks up the cost? Well, the obviously the retailer 640 00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:30,159 Speaker 12: picks up the cost, and you'll see it probably an 641 00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:35,440 Speaker 12: increased food bill charges and restaurants. You'll see it probably 642 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:38,360 Speaker 12: in prices and retail stores. But I'll tell you what 643 00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:41,800 Speaker 12: the Minister of Finance, and you've got to remember if 644 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:44,480 Speaker 12: you look at banks, because there's a feeling that banks 645 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:47,440 Speaker 12: should be picking up this, but the four big banks 646 00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:50,840 Speaker 12: now account for nearly a quarter, or nearly one in 647 00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:55,240 Speaker 12: six dollars of corporate tax collected in this country. So 648 00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:58,880 Speaker 12: they are the best government customers in this country. They 649 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:02,400 Speaker 12: contribute two point five billion dollars in tax. 650 00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:04,959 Speaker 3: Is that why Scott Simpson's giving them such an easy run? 651 00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:10,600 Speaker 12: Yeah, exactly. But if you listen to the Finance Minister, 652 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:14,000 Speaker 12: if you're sitting her chair, you can understand her steering 653 00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:18,040 Speaker 12: clear of the banks, the retailers having to absorb the cost. Well, 654 00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:21,200 Speaker 12: Nichola Willis doesn't leave, they'll pass it on to the consumer. 655 00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:24,200 Speaker 8: Well, look, I would certainly encourage them not to do that, 656 00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:26,800 Speaker 8: and I think you'd find that small businesses. No, it's 657 00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:28,880 Speaker 8: a pretty competitive world out there, and if they do that, 658 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:32,560 Speaker 8: they might lose some shoppers. The evidence from the EU 659 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:35,000 Speaker 8: and the UK is that there's no broad evidence that 660 00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:35,520 Speaker 8: that occurred. 661 00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:40,160 Speaker 12: Yeah, well you know, don't don't count on that happening 662 00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:40,880 Speaker 12: in New Zealand. 663 00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:42,880 Speaker 3: I would say, no, Verry, thanks very much, appreciate it. 664 00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:46,960 Speaker 3: That's very so for senior political correspondence.

I think where it is is 691 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:44,760 Speaker 3: very important here. The shame on the netball and their 692 00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:47,520 Speaker 3: woke crowd Hither on the whole netble is working class 693 00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:51,600 Speaker 3: hockey is not, says a hockey Mumhither barries right about 694 00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:53,840 Speaker 3: the netball crowds. They're always more left leaning. Hither they 695 00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:56,440 Speaker 3: are feral. Where do you live under a rock? Okay, 696 00:30:56,480 --> 00:31:01,200 Speaker 3: thank you. I know it's harsh, some harsh truths here 697 00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:05,480 Speaker 3: on this show. Hey, apparently if you I mean, look, 698 00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:08,000 Speaker 3: if you sleep too much at night, if you're one 699 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:09,640 Speaker 3: of those people who needs to get you know, copious 700 00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:11,960 Speaker 3: amounts of sleep and whatnot, there is some concern about 701 00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:14,080 Speaker 3: you because it means that you may actually die earlier 702 00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:16,200 Speaker 3: than people who just get normal amounts of sleep or 703 00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:19,080 Speaker 3: people who don't need that much sleep. So we're going 704 00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:20,680 Speaker 3: to talk to a sleep expert about that, because I 705 00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:23,800 Speaker 3: don't know about you. I reckon I like a good 706 00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:25,840 Speaker 3: eight and a half hours at a minimum, and now 707 00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:27,200 Speaker 3: I'm worried that it's going to kill me. 708 00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:28,840 Speaker 10: Go through life. 709 00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:29,920 Speaker 3: Everyone, do you know what you need to do? You 710 00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:31,880 Speaker 3: need to drink some MUCHA If you drink so much, 711 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:33,360 Speaker 3: you can sleep as long as you like, because it's 712 00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:35,360 Speaker 3: going to undo all of the negative health stuff. So 713 00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:39,240 Speaker 3: don't worry about that. Listen. This text I think sums 714 00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:42,040 Speaker 3: up my problem with the payWave decision today. Hither the 715 00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:46,840 Speaker 3: government decision to abolish the surcharges is interesting. However, whenever 716 00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:49,760 Speaker 3: we pay, we have the choice using payWave or the 717 00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:52,320 Speaker 3: option of a swipe a swipe on your debit card 718 00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:54,520 Speaker 3: to not incur a charge. You are right to now 719 00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:56,120 Speaker 3: assume that the retailer is just going to pass on 720 00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:58,320 Speaker 3: the cost to everyone. That's the problem, isn't it. At 721 00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:00,440 Speaker 3: least at the moment, there is transparence where if you 722 00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:02,880 Speaker 3: go up to pay for you, I don't know, you're sushi, 723 00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:05,840 Speaker 3: and they say to you or something more significant, and 724 00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:07,440 Speaker 3: they say to you, you're going to use your credit card. 725 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:09,600 Speaker 3: It's going to cost you two point two percent or whatever. 726 00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:12,880 Speaker 3: You can make the decision, which I do every single time. 727 00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:15,520 Speaker 3: Put it away, whip out the f postcard, use that instead. Right, 728 00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:17,680 Speaker 3: I've got the option you can use your credit card 729 00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:19,680 Speaker 3: if you want to. I don't want to. The problem 730 00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:22,160 Speaker 3: we've got now is that that that band is there's 731 00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:23,800 Speaker 3: a ban in place on that. It gets built into 732 00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:25,240 Speaker 3: the cost. Now I'm paying for you to use your 733 00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:29,080 Speaker 3: credit card. That really wants mout. I don't like it anyway. 734 00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:32,080 Speaker 3: Scott Simpson's going to be with us next. Just give 735 00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:34,960 Speaker 3: you some quick numbers. Do I want to? No, it's 736 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:38,040 Speaker 3: just Cinda. No trigger warning, trigger warning. We're going to 737 00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:40,080 Speaker 3: deal with some numbers about just Cinda in this show. 738 00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:42,760 Speaker 3: So just prepare yourself mentally because I know it can 739 00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:47,120 Speaker 3: be a little bit triggering for people. Qu San Cold 740 00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:50,600 Speaker 3: Chisel Number eight News Talks, the. 741 00:32:50,680 --> 00:33:32,960 Speaker 1: B Questions, Answers, Thanks Analysis, the Drive show you trust 742 00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:37,080 Speaker 1: for the full picture.

You can wave goodbye to the payWave 745 00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:46,240 Speaker 3: surcharge and basically every other surcharge as well. They've just 746 00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:49,560 Speaker 3: been banned effected from March retailers or May next year. 747 00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:51,640 Speaker 3: Other retailers will no longer be able to pass on 748 00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:54,160 Speaker 3: the huge merchant fees that banks, credit card companies and 749 00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:57,280 Speaker 3: f poss providers charge them. Scott Simpson is the Consumer 750 00:33:57,320 --> 00:34:01,560 Speaker 3: Affairs Minister. Afternoon, Scott, Scott, why are you banning the 751 00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:04,000 Speaker 3: retailers from being able to pass on this cost but 752 00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:06,080 Speaker 3: not dealing with the actual cost itself. 753 00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:09,719 Speaker 5: Well, we are dealing with the actual cost itself. The 754 00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:13,560 Speaker 5: Commerce Commission made a decision a week or so ago 755 00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:17,440 Speaker 5: to significantly lower what's referred to as the interchange fees. 756 00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:19,520 Speaker 5: These are the fees that the credit card companies are 757 00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:23,000 Speaker 5: permitted to charge. It's a regulated fee. They're dropping that 758 00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:27,120 Speaker 5: fee very significantly from December this year. What we're planning 759 00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:28,080 Speaker 5: to do is make. 760 00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:28,960 Speaker 4: Sure before you move on. 761 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:31,279 Speaker 3: Okay, let's just deal with that. How much is the 762 00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:34,120 Speaker 3: Commerce Commission taking out of that fee that retailers pay. 763 00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:38,760 Speaker 5: About ninety million dollars a year's out of one hundred 764 00:34:38,760 --> 00:34:40,320 Speaker 5: and fifty out of one hundred. 765 00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:42,600 Speaker 3: And fifty, it's the total cost is about a billion 766 00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:44,440 Speaker 3: dollars a year and they're taking ninety out. 767 00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:49,840 Speaker 5: Well, the surcharge. The Commerce Commission estimates that New Zealanders 768 00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:52,920 Speaker 5: pay around one hundred and fifty annually in surcharges, so 769 00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:56,080 Speaker 5: about one hundred and fifty million. So are they're going 770 00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:57,480 Speaker 5: to drop out ninety million of that? 771 00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:02,240 Speaker 3: That's not a fair equ what the retailers are paying 772 00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:05,239 Speaker 3: in merch just an interchange fees, right, which is only 773 00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:07,919 Speaker 3: a portion of the merchant fees, just an interchange fees 774 00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:10,760 Speaker 3: is one billion dollars a year and they're taking ninety 775 00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:13,680 Speaker 3: million dollars out. How on earth a retailer supposed to 776 00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:15,800 Speaker 3: cope with it when they now cannot afford to it, 777 00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:19,080 Speaker 3: they can't even afford to recoup it through a surcharge. 778 00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:24,160 Speaker 5: Well, what we want is to have transparency of pricing, 779 00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:28,400 Speaker 5: and I don't think it's consumers. 780 00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:30,359 Speaker 3: You're going to get the opposite, because when you've got 781 00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:32,719 Speaker 3: a billion dollars almost in costs you can now not 782 00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:35,239 Speaker 3: recoup through a searcharge, You're just going to build it 783 00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:37,400 Speaker 3: into your prices, aren't you if you're a smart retailer. 784 00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:40,719 Speaker 5: Well, that hasn't been the experience in the UK or 785 00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:44,200 Speaker 5: the EU, where surcharges have been banned for some time. 786 00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:48,640 Speaker 5: In a competitive world, businesses understand the price competitive nature 787 00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:50,680 Speaker 5: of the businesses that they operate and the goods and 788 00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:56,920 Speaker 5: services they provide. So surchargers are annoying their pesky and 789 00:35:57,040 --> 00:36:00,200 Speaker 5: most of the customers don't actually know whether they're paying 790 00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:05,040 Speaker 5: the full price or not. When you charge to sewer 791 00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:06,839 Speaker 5: charge it says one and a half, two and a half, 792 00:36:06,920 --> 00:36:10,400 Speaker 5: three percent or sometimes more. You don't know whether that 793 00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:13,920 Speaker 5: is actually a fear recouping of the seer charge or 794 00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:16,880 Speaker 5: whether it's actually retailer taking an extra margint thing. 795 00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:19,320 Speaker 3: You can choose not to pay it, so you can say, no, 796 00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:20,960 Speaker 3: I'm going to put my credit card away, I'm not 797 00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:22,520 Speaker 3: going to pay it now. What you're doing to us 798 00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:24,719 Speaker 3: is we're all going to pay it because it's going 799 00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:26,359 Speaker 3: to be built into the cost. So I can't put 800 00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:28,440 Speaker 3: my credit card away now. Doesn't matter what I use, 801 00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:29,120 Speaker 3: I'm going to pay it. 802 00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:33,440 Speaker 5: Well, if a retailer doesn't want to take a payWave, 803 00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:35,919 Speaker 5: they don't have to. There are other ways of paying 804 00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:37,280 Speaker 5: what I'm saying, merchant fees. 805 00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:39,400 Speaker 3: It's not just the payWave though, Scott, and you know this. 806 00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:42,879 Speaker 3: Merchant fees themselves are extremely expensive. So what you're doing 807 00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:45,279 Speaker 3: is in order to pretend to help us with the 808 00:36:45,320 --> 00:36:48,480 Speaker 3: cost of living crisis, you're building more more into our 809 00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:50,240 Speaker 3: prices that we're paying. You're making it worse. 810 00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:53,120 Speaker 5: No, I don't accept that for one minute. I think 811 00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:56,000 Speaker 5: that New Zealanders want to have transparency of the price 812 00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:58,799 Speaker 5: they see on the shelf being the same price they 813 00:36:58,960 --> 00:36:59,600 Speaker 5: pay at. 814 00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:02,200 Speaker 3: The Why did you not deal with the likes of 815 00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:04,600 Speaker 3: a New Zealand and Ticketmaster and all those guys who 816 00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:07,560 Speaker 3: are actually charging us egregious amounts who still get to 817 00:37:07,640 --> 00:37:09,160 Speaker 3: be able to do it because they're not affected by 818 00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:09,440 Speaker 3: the ban. 819 00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:14,360 Speaker 5: Well, the ban at the moment includes personal payments, so 820 00:37:14,760 --> 00:37:17,919 Speaker 5: point of sale payments. We wanted to leave some room 821 00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:20,600 Speaker 5: for the new fintech companies to find a space to 822 00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:24,319 Speaker 5: live and thrive. There's a whole range of new technology coming. 823 00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:26,600 Speaker 3: Not to be pulling my leg, you wanted to leave 824 00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:29,560 Speaker 3: Ticketmaster to charge us eight dollars every single time so 825 00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:31,080 Speaker 3: somebody could set up a business. 826 00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:36,000 Speaker 5: We are looking at that. The initial ban is for 827 00:37:36,200 --> 00:37:38,360 Speaker 5: in person payments, and what we will do is do 828 00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:42,719 Speaker 5: some create some legislation before May of next year and 829 00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 5: keep those options open. So the initial ban is on 830 00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:49,080 Speaker 5: in person payments only, and we'll look to extend that 831 00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:51,960 Speaker 5: further beyond that as and when as necessary. 832 00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:54,759 Speaker 3: Scott, thank you. I appreciate your time. That Scottsson, the 833 00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:56,880 Speaker 3: Consumer Affairs Minister a letter go where they do. 834 00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:58,799 Speaker 4: By Allen, Israel. 835 00:37:58,520 --> 00:38:00,640 Speaker 3: Has a bound to international pressure and is allowing some 836 00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:03,080 Speaker 3: aid into the Gaza strip. Trump is blaming Hummas for 837 00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:07,680 Speaker 3: stealing aid from people. Claimeniera is an emergency coordinator at 838 00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:11,640 Speaker 3: Doctors Without Borders. High Claire Hi. There are the air 839 00:38:11,719 --> 00:38:13,799 Speaker 3: drops and the pauses to deliver aid enough. 840 00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:18,880 Speaker 2: No, it is definitely not enough. This is a population 841 00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:22,720 Speaker 2: that has received no aid coming in safely for months 842 00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:26,000 Speaker 2: and months now, so whatever is coming in now is 843 00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:29,520 Speaker 2: vastly inadequate. We need a longer term solution. 844 00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:34,319 Speaker 3: Ahamas stealing the aid, like the President claims, we. 845 00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:37,719 Speaker 2: Have absolutely no evidence of that. And while I was 846 00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:40,279 Speaker 2: there on the ground, all I could see was that 847 00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:44,279 Speaker 2: medical supplies we're going into the hospitals that we work in, 848 00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:47,200 Speaker 2: and we were trying to deliver aid to the population. 849 00:38:47,520 --> 00:38:51,240 Speaker 2: So all of these claims to me are completely baseless. 850 00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:54,200 Speaker 3: There are photographs that have been taken, or at least 851 00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:56,719 Speaker 3: one photograph that I've seen, of young men on the 852 00:38:56,800 --> 00:38:59,560 Speaker 3: aid trucks with weapons. What's going on there? 853 00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:04,040 Speaker 2: Well, I don't know where these weapons are coming from. 854 00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:06,840 Speaker 2: But while I was there, we did have some trucks 855 00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:10,439 Speaker 2: come in with medical supplies. And it's the Israeli authorities 856 00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:13,680 Speaker 2: who told us to use roads that are very unsafe, 857 00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:15,880 Speaker 2: and they made the trucks come in at night, and 858 00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:18,600 Speaker 2: then those trucks were attacked. So to me, it felt 859 00:39:18,640 --> 00:39:20,400 Speaker 2: like we were walking into a trap. 860 00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:21,359 Speaker 3: And attacked my home. 861 00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:25,120 Speaker 2: Well, I don't know who it was, but we were 862 00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:28,560 Speaker 2: followed the whole way by an Israeli quad copter, which 863 00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:32,200 Speaker 2: is an unmanned drone device which can shoot in all 864 00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:35,920 Speaker 2: directions and it's one of the most alarming and scary 865 00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:38,439 Speaker 2: pieces of military weapons that they use. 866 00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:42,960 Speaker 3: And when you say the trucks were attacked, what happened, Well, 867 00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:43,759 Speaker 3: the trucks. 868 00:39:43,480 --> 00:39:47,200 Speaker 2: Were moving along in a convoy and I had news 869 00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:50,520 Speaker 2: from my staff that were driving the trucks that they 870 00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:55,040 Speaker 2: were being attacked. The drivers fled from the trucks and unfortunately, 871 00:39:55,160 --> 00:39:58,160 Speaker 2: one of them has lost his eyesight because they were 872 00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:01,120 Speaker 2: shot at and the glass went direct into his eyes. 873 00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:04,520 Speaker 2: So after this, I said that we cannot keep receiving 874 00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:08,560 Speaker 2: trucks coming in this way. If the Israeli authorities insist 875 00:40:08,719 --> 00:40:11,000 Speaker 2: on it being so unsafe. 876 00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:12,560 Speaker 3: And then what happened to the aid on the trucks. 877 00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:19,399 Speaker 2: We eventually received medical supplies into our hospital, but it's 878 00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:20,160 Speaker 2: not enough. 879 00:40:20,680 --> 00:40:24,239 Speaker 3: And since then I'm confused here, So let me just 880 00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:27,440 Speaker 3: clarify with you. Was it Humas who was attacking your 881 00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:28,920 Speaker 3: trucks or was it the Israelis? 882 00:40:30,480 --> 00:40:32,640 Speaker 2: I have no idea who was attacking our trucks. 883 00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:34,279 Speaker 3: Did anybody sees any of your aid? 884 00:40:36,080 --> 00:40:36,120 Speaker 6: No? 885 00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:39,840 Speaker 2: Our aid luckily was left alone because the advantage I 886 00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:42,200 Speaker 2: think is it's medical supplies and it's not food. 887 00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:46,080 Speaker 3: Okay, if it were, because you see this, this, I mean, 888 00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:48,399 Speaker 3: the story that you're telling me right now at least 889 00:40:48,440 --> 00:40:51,279 Speaker 3: opens up the possibility that maybe Trump is right, that 890 00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:52,919 Speaker 3: that Humas is taking some aid. 891 00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:58,440 Speaker 2: I have absolutely no evidence of that. And on the ground, 892 00:40:58,560 --> 00:41:03,520 Speaker 2: the coordination me and in our medical facilities went very well. 893 00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:06,319 Speaker 2: All the challenges that we had and that I had 894 00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:08,000 Speaker 2: were with the Israeli authorities. 895 00:41:08,120 --> 00:41:12,840 Speaker 3: Okay, Claire, what's the solution here? Do I mean? Does this? 896 00:41:13,080 --> 00:41:15,720 Speaker 3: I mean I realized that even the ceasefire talks apparently 897 00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:17,759 Speaker 3: are hanging off this thing. Who needs to be in 898 00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:19,920 Speaker 3: charge of the aid to make sure everybody gets fit enough. 899 00:41:21,640 --> 00:41:24,480 Speaker 2: Well, the NGOs and the UNA able to deliver this 900 00:41:24,640 --> 00:41:27,120 Speaker 2: aid safely. We know what we're doing. We have trucks 901 00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:29,879 Speaker 2: at the border and we're ready to do so. Even 902 00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:32,879 Speaker 2: if there is a temporary ceasefire, it will make things worse. 903 00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:36,520 Speaker 2: So we need a permanent ceasefire and we need for 904 00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:37,839 Speaker 2: this to be happening. 905 00:41:37,560 --> 00:41:39,480 Speaker 3: Now, Claire, thank you for your time.

Having the un do 928 00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:34,640 Speaker 3: the AID in Gaza's probably a little problematic given that 929 00:42:34,760 --> 00:42:37,720 Speaker 3: last time they were doing it they were infiltrated by Hummas. 930 00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:40,760 Speaker 3: You'll just google UNRA and Hummas and you'll find that story. 931 00:42:41,120 --> 00:42:44,319 Speaker 3: Nineteen past five. Now, this is alarming. After being told 932 00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:46,200 Speaker 3: for how long that we need to get enough sleep, 933 00:42:46,200 --> 00:42:49,359 Speaker 3: it's emerged at getting too much sleep will actually kill 934 00:42:49,400 --> 00:42:52,160 Speaker 3: you early. Dr Alex Bartell is a sleep expert from 935 00:42:52,160 --> 00:42:55,040 Speaker 3: the Sleep Well Clinic and with us. Now, hey Alex, oh, 936 00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:57,759 Speaker 3: good evening. Do you believe this? Does this sound right 937 00:42:57,800 --> 00:42:59,399 Speaker 3: to here? That people who sleep more than nine hours 938 00:42:59,440 --> 00:43:02,040 Speaker 3: a night are four percent more likely to have shorter lives. 939 00:43:03,280 --> 00:43:05,480 Speaker 21: Yes, and the reasons for that, and this is a 940 00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:07,640 Speaker 21: repeat of a study that's been done a number of 941 00:43:07,719 --> 00:43:10,200 Speaker 21: times now that too short sleep, well, we all know 942 00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:12,600 Speaker 21: about that that's been around for ages. But too long 943 00:43:12,640 --> 00:43:16,120 Speaker 21: sleep sounds a bit wrong, but nearly always we're sleeping 944 00:43:16,520 --> 00:43:19,000 Speaker 21: too much time more than nine or is certainly more 945 00:43:19,040 --> 00:43:23,040 Speaker 21: than ten hours because of some underlying condition. So in 946 00:43:23,160 --> 00:43:26,719 Speaker 21: itself sleep long long sleep isn't causing the illness. It's 947 00:43:26,760 --> 00:43:29,680 Speaker 21: often some illness is causing the long sleep, and it 948 00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:32,279 Speaker 21: may be that illness that's resulting in the higher death rate. 949 00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:35,800 Speaker 3: Ah okay, so maybe that there's something already wrong requiring 950 00:43:35,880 --> 00:43:37,880 Speaker 3: more sleep. How do you then know, I mean, if 951 00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:41,160 Speaker 3: you are there people alex who simply need to sleep 952 00:43:41,239 --> 00:43:42,680 Speaker 3: eight and a half to nine hours a night. 953 00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:47,200 Speaker 21: Oh, yes, genetically it can be possible. About two percent 954 00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:49,920 Speaker 21: of the population are really quite long sleep is sort 955 00:43:49,920 --> 00:43:52,520 Speaker 21: of more than nine hours. But you know, when you 956 00:43:52,600 --> 00:43:55,480 Speaker 21: get more than ten hours, there's something wrong, and so 957 00:43:56,040 --> 00:43:58,120 Speaker 21: usually the GP will have done something about that, like 958 00:43:58,239 --> 00:44:02,799 Speaker 21: tested for thyroid problems or diets. Depression will often cause 959 00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:05,279 Speaker 21: people to sleep longer, but of course sleep ap near 960 00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:07,200 Speaker 21: is the other one where people get very sleepy and 961 00:44:07,280 --> 00:44:10,399 Speaker 21: they need more sleep than usual, but often still feel 962 00:44:10,480 --> 00:44:11,279 Speaker 21: tired during the day. 963 00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:14,200 Speaker 3: How do you know, I mean, if you feel like 964 00:44:14,239 --> 00:44:15,680 Speaker 3: you need eight and a half to nine and you 965 00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:17,680 Speaker 3: get it, and then you'll wake up and you're good 966 00:44:17,719 --> 00:44:19,279 Speaker 3: to go and you have a great day, and then 967 00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:20,720 Speaker 3: you do it again. Is that that's okay? 968 00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:21,000 Speaker 19: Is it? 969 00:44:21,680 --> 00:44:22,320 Speaker 16: That's brilliant? 970 00:44:22,440 --> 00:44:25,160 Speaker 21: I mean, yeah, seven eight hours sleep and people function 971 00:44:25,320 --> 00:44:27,880 Speaker 21: really well on that generally. But if you're suddenly finding 972 00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:29,920 Speaker 21: you're needing much longer sleep, then you really need to 973 00:44:29,960 --> 00:44:33,960 Speaker 21: catch up with your GP and it goes through some testing. 974 00:44:34,480 --> 00:44:37,160 Speaker 21: And if that's not sufficient and you're particularly if you're 975 00:44:37,160 --> 00:44:39,360 Speaker 21: a snorer, for example, then you need to check for 976 00:44:39,440 --> 00:44:41,280 Speaker 21: sleep ap near good stuff. 977 00:44:41,320 --> 00:44:43,600 Speaker 3: It's good to talk to you, Alex.

Lots of people 993 00:45:23,360 --> 00:45:24,640 Speaker 3: very annoyed though, five to twenty one. 994 00:45:26,160 --> 00:45:29,479 Speaker 1: Checking the point of the story, it's Heather duplicy Ellen 995 00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:31,520 Speaker 1: drive with one New Zealand. 996 00:45:31,880 --> 00:45:34,839 Speaker 4: Let's get connected and use dogs. They'd be hither. 997 00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:36,880 Speaker 3: It's funny the oldest woman in Japan, who was one 998 00:45:36,960 --> 00:45:39,000 Speaker 3: hundred and fourteen years old, sleeps for two days and 999 00:45:39,120 --> 00:45:40,520 Speaker 3: is a wake for one. I feel like she's got 1000 00:45:40,560 --> 00:45:43,680 Speaker 3: an underlying problem. What do you think her underlying problem 1001 00:45:43,719 --> 00:45:47,160 Speaker 3: is being one hundred and forty one? It's five twenty four. Hey, now, 1002 00:45:47,800 --> 00:45:50,160 Speaker 3: I'm happy to say now we are getting somewhere with 1003 00:45:50,320 --> 00:45:53,320 Speaker 3: road cones. Chris Bishop, in his capacity as the Minister 1004 00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:56,200 Speaker 3: of Transport, has now threatened to cut off funding to 1005 00:45:56,320 --> 00:45:59,719 Speaker 3: councils unless they start cutting the cones by using the 1006 00:45:59,800 --> 00:46:03,760 Speaker 3: new rules. Now, how it works is that central government 1007 00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:05,880 Speaker 3: does the big roads right, so NZTA does all the 1008 00:46:05,880 --> 00:46:08,920 Speaker 3: big roads and then councils do the local roads. Now, 1009 00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:11,680 Speaker 3: the government really recently changed the code of practice for 1010 00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:14,400 Speaker 3: road cones and all of that stuff, right, like all 1011 00:46:14,480 --> 00:46:16,280 Speaker 3: the stuff that you need when you're doing road maintenance. 1012 00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:19,640 Speaker 3: They change the code of practice for it. NZTA started 1013 00:46:19,760 --> 00:46:23,600 Speaker 3: using this new code of practice and therefore hopefully using 1014 00:46:23,680 --> 00:46:27,080 Speaker 3: fewer cones. But not all councils did this. They didn't 1015 00:46:27,120 --> 00:46:29,160 Speaker 3: adopt the new code of practice. I don't know why 1016 00:46:29,440 --> 00:46:31,440 Speaker 3: they were using the old one. Don't know why. Is 1017 00:46:31,520 --> 00:46:33,680 Speaker 3: it laziness, is it bloody mindedness, is it a love 1018 00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:36,640 Speaker 3: of excessive health and safety? Whatever, they're still using the 1019 00:46:36,719 --> 00:46:39,680 Speaker 3: old one. The old one, by the way, is so prescriptive. 1020 00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:42,520 Speaker 3: It tells the roading guys how many reflective markers they 1021 00:46:42,600 --> 00:46:44,959 Speaker 3: have to use in a ten meter stretch. It can't 1022 00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:46,600 Speaker 3: be left to the roading guys just to use their 1023 00:46:46,640 --> 00:46:48,319 Speaker 3: common sense when they look at the piece of road 1024 00:46:48,360 --> 00:46:49,839 Speaker 3: and go, well, put one here, put when they put 1025 00:46:49,840 --> 00:46:52,440 Speaker 3: one no in a in a ten meter stretch, they've 1026 00:46:52,440 --> 00:46:54,600 Speaker 3: got to use this many according to the rules. And 1027 00:46:55,200 --> 00:46:58,520 Speaker 3: it's not just the road markers. It's prescriptive for everything. 1028 00:46:58,719 --> 00:47:01,080 Speaker 3: So you can imagine how much costs that's building in now. 1029 00:47:01,080 --> 00:47:02,759 Speaker 3: As Chris Bishop has said to them, this is to 1030 00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:05,879 Speaker 3: the councils, you use the new rules or you don't 1031 00:47:05,920 --> 00:47:08,239 Speaker 3: get the money. And given that many councils actually go 1032 00:47:08,360 --> 00:47:10,839 Speaker 3: fifty to fifty with central government on roading projects, it's 1033 00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:13,080 Speaker 3: probably going to work because nothing speaks like a bit 1034 00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:14,320 Speaker 3: of money being withheld. 1035 00:47:14,600 --> 00:47:14,719 Speaker 6: Now. 1036 00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:17,080 Speaker 3: The caveat here, obviously is that a numpty will always 1037 00:47:17,080 --> 00:47:19,080 Speaker 3: find a way to interpret the rules to include ten 1038 00:47:19,160 --> 00:47:21,880 Speaker 3: thousand more cones than is necessary. But at least I 1039 00:47:22,000 --> 00:47:24,160 Speaker 3: feel like we are getting somewhere because that road code 1040 00:47:24,239 --> 00:47:26,520 Speaker 3: tip line that was announced a few months ago, we've 1041 00:47:26,560 --> 00:47:29,560 Speaker 3: realized that is just a charade. It can't reduce road cones. 1042 00:47:29,840 --> 00:47:32,120 Speaker 3: If the rules require the road cones, you can report 1043 00:47:32,160 --> 00:47:33,920 Speaker 3: it all you like. But if they meet the rules, 1044 00:47:33,960 --> 00:47:35,320 Speaker 3: then they meet the rules. So the only way to 1045 00:47:35,400 --> 00:47:38,000 Speaker 3: change things is to change the rules threaten money, and 1046 00:47:38,120 --> 00:47:40,960 Speaker 3: that seems more likely to affect change. I know a 1047 00:47:40,960 --> 00:47:43,080 Speaker 3: lot of people are gonnay, what do you go banging 1048 00:47:43,120 --> 00:47:45,920 Speaker 3: on about road cones. Road cones are important because road 1049 00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:49,000 Speaker 3: cones are like public servants. You need a certain number 1050 00:47:49,360 --> 00:47:51,560 Speaker 3: and then everything above that is just a waste of money. 1051 00:47:51,760 --> 00:47:55,080 Speaker 3: And listen. If you cannot cut down on something inanimate 1052 00:47:55,600 --> 00:47:58,480 Speaker 3: without a family to feed, like a road cone. If 1053 00:47:58,520 --> 00:48:00,680 Speaker 3: you can't cut down on the cost of road cones, 1054 00:48:01,080 --> 00:48:02,640 Speaker 3: then you're never going to be able to cut any 1055 00:48:02,719 --> 00:48:04,640 Speaker 3: costs at all ever. 1056 00:48:04,840 --> 00:48:06,480 Speaker 4: Du for see Ellens here. 1057 00:48:06,360 --> 00:48:08,360 Speaker 3: The small business owner here. Every single cent of the 1058 00:48:08,400 --> 00:48:10,360 Speaker 3: fees which can no longer be on charge will be 1059 00:48:10,440 --> 00:48:13,880 Speaker 3: added to the retail price at the till no exceptions, 1060 00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:15,719 Speaker 3: starting the same day the surchargers stop. 1061 00:48:15,920 --> 00:48:16,480 Speaker 8: So there you go. 1062 00:48:16,760 --> 00:48:18,839 Speaker 3: Talk to Nicola Willis about that. She's with us after 1063 00:48:18,880 --> 00:48:21,600 Speaker 3: six o'clock.

I'm going 1078 00:49:22,640 --> 00:49:26,560 Speaker 3: to say debatable. I mean, I think you would put 1079 00:49:26,600 --> 00:49:29,319 Speaker 3: electric blue before before the song, wouldn't you? But then 1080 00:49:29,360 --> 00:49:31,799 Speaker 3: there's probably got more to do if it's cut through anyway, listen. 1081 00:49:31,840 --> 00:49:33,319 Speaker 3: Brad Olson's going to be with us in an hour. 1082 00:49:33,320 --> 00:49:35,520 Speaker 3: I saw him on the news the other night, maybe 1083 00:49:35,600 --> 00:49:37,719 Speaker 3: last night, holding up a block of butter and telling 1084 00:49:37,760 --> 00:49:40,279 Speaker 3: me how expensive it was in Beijing.

Small retailers are pushing back at the 1089 00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:51,839 Speaker 3: government's move to bang credit card surcharges from next year. 1090 00:49:51,880 --> 00:49:55,120 Speaker 3: The cor MOUs Minister Scott Simpson told us he's doing 1091 00:49:55,160 --> 00:49:55,600 Speaker 3: a good thing. 1092 00:49:56,040 --> 00:50:00,080 Speaker 5: What we want is to have transparency of pricing. A 1093 00:50:00,160 --> 00:50:03,840 Speaker 5: retailer doesn't want to take a payWave, they don't have to. 1094 00:50:04,200 --> 00:50:05,840 Speaker 5: There are other ways of pay. 1095 00:50:06,239 --> 00:50:09,120 Speaker 3: And Bansell is the chair of the Dairy and Business 1096 00:50:09,160 --> 00:50:10,600 Speaker 3: Owners Group and with us high An Kit. 1097 00:50:11,640 --> 00:50:13,600 Speaker 20: Well, Hi Heather, thanks for me having me on the show. 1098 00:50:13,800 --> 00:50:16,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, do you like this idea of banning the search charges? 1099 00:50:17,440 --> 00:50:20,600 Speaker 20: Look, Rita, the retailers are very concerned by the dis 1100 00:50:20,680 --> 00:50:23,880 Speaker 20: proposed changes as the banks can still charge us whatever 1101 00:50:23,960 --> 00:50:26,560 Speaker 20: the transaction fees they like, or we can't pass it on, 1102 00:50:26,960 --> 00:50:28,319 Speaker 20: so that seems unfair to us. 1103 00:50:28,840 --> 00:50:30,880 Speaker 3: How much do you get charged in your merchant fees 1104 00:50:30,920 --> 00:50:31,319 Speaker 3: every year? 1105 00:50:32,440 --> 00:50:36,000 Speaker 20: Well, on our average small retail is a payer somewhere 1106 00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:39,080 Speaker 20: around between seven and ten grand a year on depending 1107 00:50:39,120 --> 00:50:40,080 Speaker 20: on which banks they're with. 1108 00:50:40,960 --> 00:50:42,360 Speaker 3: And is it going to get past is it just 1109 00:50:42,400 --> 00:50:44,560 Speaker 3: going to simply be built into the prices that we pay? Now, 1110 00:50:44,680 --> 00:50:45,759 Speaker 3: what are you going to do? Are you going to 1111 00:50:45,800 --> 00:50:46,200 Speaker 3: absorb it? 1112 00:50:47,120 --> 00:50:50,080 Speaker 20: Absolutely no. It has to be passed on to the 1113 00:50:50,600 --> 00:50:53,200 Speaker 20: consumers and the problem is we have to do it 1114 00:50:53,280 --> 00:50:55,560 Speaker 20: across the board, so even if someone with paying with 1115 00:50:55,680 --> 00:50:57,960 Speaker 20: cash will still one way or another will pay for 1116 00:50:58,080 --> 00:50:58,680 Speaker 20: these charges. 1117 00:50:59,280 --> 00:51:02,400 Speaker 3: Did you did you warn the government before they did 1118 00:51:02,480 --> 00:51:04,080 Speaker 3: this that that would be the likely impact? 1119 00:51:05,200 --> 00:51:08,440 Speaker 20: We like, we were taken by surpri We had no 1120 00:51:08,680 --> 00:51:12,080 Speaker 20: idea that this is coming. So but we will be 1121 00:51:12,120 --> 00:51:14,919 Speaker 20: definitely working with our minister and we will be raising 1122 00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:16,160 Speaker 20: these issues with him. 1123 00:51:16,600 --> 00:51:18,640 Speaker 3: Okay and Kit, thanks very much, really appreciate it.

Anyway, it's nice 1132 00:51:44,120 --> 00:51:46,320 Speaker 3: to have you here, Stu, and it's obviously nice to 1133 00:51:46,360 --> 00:51:48,120 Speaker 3: have you here Tris. Trish, do you think the searcharge 1134 00:51:48,160 --> 00:51:48,879 Speaker 3: ban is a good move. 1135 00:51:49,719 --> 00:51:52,399 Speaker 23: I think the government is banking on this being good 1136 00:51:52,719 --> 00:51:57,000 Speaker 23: retail politics. Excuse the pun. There's a lot of grumpiness 1137 00:51:57,400 --> 00:51:59,640 Speaker 23: amongst people, and I know I'm one of them because 1138 00:51:59,640 --> 00:52:01,960 Speaker 23: I love to use payWave, but the minute I go 1139 00:52:02,040 --> 00:52:06,120 Speaker 23: and use payWave, there's an extra surcharge put on. I 1140 00:52:06,239 --> 00:52:08,400 Speaker 23: think one of the problems for the government is, and 1141 00:52:08,520 --> 00:52:10,920 Speaker 23: you hear it from these small businesses coming in tonight, 1142 00:52:11,400 --> 00:52:14,640 Speaker 23: that they are increasingly seen as a government that's more 1143 00:52:14,800 --> 00:52:18,719 Speaker 23: about consumers than for business, and they might think that's 1144 00:52:18,760 --> 00:52:22,439 Speaker 23: a good thing, but from in terms of their core 1145 00:52:22,640 --> 00:52:26,520 Speaker 23: support base, a national government cannot afford to lose the 1146 00:52:26,600 --> 00:52:28,719 Speaker 23: business audience, big or small. 1147 00:52:28,800 --> 00:52:30,560 Speaker 3: So do you think it's a political miscalculation. 1148 00:52:32,160 --> 00:52:34,480 Speaker 23: I think they think they're on the right side of 1149 00:52:34,560 --> 00:52:38,480 Speaker 23: the calculation. And I have to say I do think 1150 00:52:38,600 --> 00:52:42,440 Speaker 23: that anything a surcharge. When I go and there's anything 1151 00:52:42,520 --> 00:52:44,960 Speaker 23: over one or two percent, I think actually this is 1152 00:52:45,160 --> 00:52:45,840 Speaker 23: just building in. 1153 00:52:46,040 --> 00:52:49,040 Speaker 3: An additional reverge revenue stream in margin. Are you still 1154 00:52:49,080 --> 00:52:51,160 Speaker 3: cross about the ticketmaster in the air New Zealand because 1155 00:52:51,160 --> 00:52:52,960 Speaker 3: they can keep on doing it they're unaffected by the band. 1156 00:52:53,080 --> 00:52:54,040 Speaker 3: But isn't that the thing? 1157 00:52:54,160 --> 00:52:57,279 Speaker 23: As a consumer, there is nothing worse than seeing here's 1158 00:52:57,360 --> 00:52:59,239 Speaker 23: the price, here's the price, and then you get to 1159 00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:02,000 Speaker 23: the end and the price has gone up by ten 1160 00:53:02,160 --> 00:53:05,520 Speaker 23: twenty thirty dollars because of all these extra charges. I 1161 00:53:05,640 --> 00:53:08,000 Speaker 23: think that's really poor and I agree with you that 1162 00:53:08,200 --> 00:53:09,640 Speaker 23: needs to be addressed as well. 1163 00:53:09,680 --> 00:53:11,120 Speaker 3: I don't think this is good to you. I don't 1164 00:53:11,120 --> 00:53:12,440 Speaker 3: think this is going to impress anybody. 1165 00:53:12,600 --> 00:53:14,680 Speaker 7: It's gone after the wrong people. They should be going 1166 00:53:14,760 --> 00:53:17,440 Speaker 7: after the banks. Yes, banks are the guys that put 1167 00:53:17,520 --> 00:53:19,960 Speaker 7: the surcharge for the retailers got to pay. When I 1168 00:53:20,000 --> 00:53:21,880 Speaker 7: was mister small business, which is a nothing, we did. 1169 00:53:22,239 --> 00:53:23,480 Speaker 7: We had a good look at this and you know 1170 00:53:23,560 --> 00:53:26,080 Speaker 7: we're paying about twice as much as they do in Australia, 1171 00:53:26,080 --> 00:53:27,759 Speaker 7: about three times as much as they do in the UK. 1172 00:53:29,040 --> 00:53:31,400 Speaker 7: Shane Jones, if he was doing this, he would go 1173 00:53:31,520 --> 00:53:34,200 Speaker 7: after the banks. Now that is good politics, not going 1174 00:53:34,239 --> 00:53:36,160 Speaker 7: after the retailers, but the guys that are making. 1175 00:53:36,680 --> 00:53:39,360 Speaker 3: Good politics though Stu. But it is the actual problem. 1176 00:53:39,600 --> 00:53:42,080 Speaker 3: I mean, it's a billion dollars in costs every year. 1177 00:53:42,200 --> 00:53:44,640 Speaker 3: That's just in the interchange fee, right, There'll be more 1178 00:53:44,719 --> 00:53:46,880 Speaker 3: on top of that in the total merchant fee. So 1179 00:53:47,239 --> 00:53:49,800 Speaker 3: why not do it? This feels to me like a rush. 1180 00:53:49,719 --> 00:53:52,560 Speaker 7: Job, an absolute rush job, and I completely agree with Trish. 1181 00:53:52,680 --> 00:53:55,040 Speaker 7: You know, this has got to be seen as as 1182 00:53:55,080 --> 00:53:57,120 Speaker 7: a party. That is business for me. You know, this 1183 00:53:57,320 --> 00:54:00,239 Speaker 7: was lux and trusts me Iran in New Zealan. I'm 1184 00:54:00,239 --> 00:54:01,880 Speaker 7: doing He doesn't know what he's doing at all, but 1185 00:54:02,239 --> 00:54:06,759 Speaker 7: going after retailers. Man, at this point in the economic cycle, 1186 00:54:06,920 --> 00:54:07,480 Speaker 7: wrong play. 1187 00:54:07,920 --> 00:54:10,600 Speaker 3: After the point I know that you've you know, people 1188 00:54:10,719 --> 00:54:13,080 Speaker 3: who are in government because you're sucking up that heart 1189 00:54:13,160 --> 00:54:13,719 Speaker 3: just New Zealand. 1190 00:54:13,760 --> 00:54:14,239 Speaker 10: First, at the. 1191 00:54:14,239 --> 00:54:17,560 Speaker 3: Moment I had heard, I had heard that this is 1192 00:54:17,640 --> 00:54:20,239 Speaker 3: unfortunately a government that is lurching from week to week 1193 00:54:20,440 --> 00:54:22,680 Speaker 3: coming up with announcements and the smacks of that. Is 1194 00:54:22,719 --> 00:54:23,399 Speaker 3: that what you're hearing? 1195 00:54:23,520 --> 00:54:25,400 Speaker 7: You know, I've said this time and time again. I 1196 00:54:25,480 --> 00:54:27,680 Speaker 7: think there is a level of ineptitude on the ninth 1197 00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:30,160 Speaker 7: floor for listeners who don't know that's the Prime Minister's 1198 00:54:30,200 --> 00:54:33,040 Speaker 7: office that we haven't seen in a long long time. 1199 00:54:33,080 --> 00:54:34,319 Speaker 3: Well, there hasn't been that long since. 1200 00:54:34,400 --> 00:54:34,719 Speaker 20: Just in it. 1201 00:54:34,840 --> 00:54:35,120 Speaker 6: No, I. 1202 00:54:36,880 --> 00:54:39,000 Speaker 7: Come on, Well, if you think we would have seen 1203 00:54:39,040 --> 00:54:42,240 Speaker 7: this under Wayne Eagleson and John Key or Heather Simpson 1204 00:54:42,440 --> 00:54:45,239 Speaker 7: and hell Hope and how this is really this is 1205 00:54:45,680 --> 00:54:47,840 Speaker 7: back to Tricia's point, this is just bad politics if 1206 00:54:47,920 --> 00:54:50,239 Speaker 7: nothing else. At a point in time when people are 1207 00:54:50,280 --> 00:54:52,279 Speaker 7: beginning to think, Okay, yeah, who will I vote for? 1208 00:54:53,239 --> 00:54:56,080 Speaker 7: Views are getting formed, political decisions are being made, and 1209 00:54:56,280 --> 00:54:58,799 Speaker 7: this sort of thing is just noise that I don't 1210 00:54:58,840 --> 00:54:59,680 Speaker 7: think the government. 1211 00:54:59,400 --> 00:55:02,480 Speaker 23: Needs to go near three quick points. Number one, Let's 1212 00:55:02,520 --> 00:55:05,160 Speaker 23: remember someone has to pay for the system. Someone has 1213 00:55:05,239 --> 00:55:07,719 Speaker 23: to pay for the system that hooks all of this up. 1214 00:55:07,880 --> 00:55:10,759 Speaker 23: So the government has had a look at interchange fees 1215 00:55:10,800 --> 00:55:13,080 Speaker 23: as well, and they're going up to the front end. 1216 00:55:13,160 --> 00:55:16,359 Speaker 23: And this is similar to what's happened in Australia. Number two, 1217 00:55:16,680 --> 00:55:20,080 Speaker 23: just on a higher level around the present government and 1218 00:55:20,200 --> 00:55:23,480 Speaker 23: the previous I've got two two main issues. Number one, 1219 00:55:23,800 --> 00:55:26,920 Speaker 23: we are becoming more and more short termism and reactionary. 1220 00:55:27,840 --> 00:55:30,879 Speaker 23: And number two what we're seeing, And I would argue 1221 00:55:30,920 --> 00:55:33,560 Speaker 23: this is one of those announcements. Today we are seeing 1222 00:55:33,640 --> 00:55:37,799 Speaker 23: the generation of politicians who were helicopter parented are now 1223 00:55:38,080 --> 00:55:41,880 Speaker 23: in charge of the country. Everyone is being helicopter parented. 1224 00:55:41,960 --> 00:55:44,680 Speaker 23: No one can lose every you know, all our battles 1225 00:55:44,680 --> 00:55:47,640 Speaker 23: are forteen or you can't be paying too much while 1226 00:55:47,680 --> 00:55:50,279 Speaker 23: we go up the steps. Yeah, exactly, And I think 1227 00:55:50,400 --> 00:55:53,440 Speaker 23: if I lift up to that higher level, that is 1228 00:55:53,560 --> 00:55:57,160 Speaker 23: as a voter. That's my biggest concern with governments, the 1229 00:55:57,239 --> 00:56:01,800 Speaker 23: previous one, your mates Stee, and also this current government. 1230 00:56:02,040 --> 00:56:04,200 Speaker 7: Yeah, but let's get back to the point. Go after 1231 00:56:04,320 --> 00:56:06,960 Speaker 7: the banks. The banks are making literally billions of dollars 1232 00:56:06,960 --> 00:56:09,560 Speaker 7: off bloody Kiwis, and this is another way they're wraughting 1233 00:56:09,680 --> 00:56:12,560 Speaker 7: us completely and utterly. But the government's going after the retailers. 1234 00:56:13,040 --> 00:56:13,680 Speaker 7: Bad politics. 1235 00:56:13,760 --> 00:56:15,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, I totally agree. It's another example of the government's 1236 00:56:15,840 --> 00:56:17,880 Speaker 3: going after the Kiwis on this one instead of the 1237 00:56:17,920 --> 00:56:19,759 Speaker 3: Aussie banks. Right, we'll take a break, come back to 1238 00:56:19,840 --> 00:56:21,600 Speaker 3: these two and just to take it's eighteen away from. 1239 00:56:21,520 --> 00:56:26,680 Speaker 1: Six the huddle with New Zealand southebyst International Realty the 1240 00:56:26,800 --> 00:56:28,680 Speaker 1: ones for unmassed results. 1241 00:56:29,080 --> 00:56:31,400 Speaker 3: Right, you're back with the huddle Stewart, Nash and Trisherson 1242 00:56:31,440 --> 00:56:33,240 Speaker 3: ste What do you make of the prime minister getting 1243 00:56:33,239 --> 00:56:33,640 Speaker 3: booed at. 1244 00:56:33,600 --> 00:56:35,399 Speaker 7: The netball Look, no matter what you think of the guy, 1245 00:56:35,480 --> 00:56:38,680 Speaker 7: that's just bad for When did Kiwi start booing politicians 1246 00:56:38,760 --> 00:56:42,080 Speaker 7: and mean, for goodness sake the guy. My view on 1247 00:56:42,160 --> 00:56:44,160 Speaker 7: this is I don't necessarily like who the Prime Minister 1248 00:56:44,239 --> 00:56:45,840 Speaker 7: is at times, but you've got to respect the position. 1249 00:56:45,960 --> 00:56:48,399 Speaker 7: The guy's there, he's representing Zell and he's working really, 1250 00:56:48,440 --> 00:56:50,239 Speaker 7: really hard. Like I said, it doesn't matter we are 1251 00:56:50,360 --> 00:56:53,400 Speaker 7: like or not, but booing a prime minister, come on, Keywis, 1252 00:56:53,400 --> 00:56:54,080 Speaker 7: you can do better than that. 1253 00:56:54,239 --> 00:56:57,560 Speaker 3: I agree. Barry Soper reckons that netball crowds are just 1254 00:56:58,000 --> 00:57:00,640 Speaker 3: left and working class and it's to be expected. 1255 00:57:01,000 --> 00:57:02,640 Speaker 10: I heard I heard Barry. 1256 00:57:03,920 --> 00:57:06,640 Speaker 23: Game and I thought we need to book Barrier ticket 1257 00:57:06,719 --> 00:57:08,840 Speaker 23: to the next netball game and send her off with 1258 00:57:08,880 --> 00:57:10,800 Speaker 23: the big sign hello, I'm Barry so so. But the 1259 00:57:10,920 --> 00:57:15,400 Speaker 23: crowd can identify a couple of things on this. I 1260 00:57:15,880 --> 00:57:18,000 Speaker 23: agree with Stu. I think this is really performed and 1261 00:57:18,080 --> 00:57:20,000 Speaker 23: if you and I love the way the MC at 1262 00:57:20,040 --> 00:57:21,960 Speaker 23: that event tried to bring it back to the sport 1263 00:57:22,040 --> 00:57:24,200 Speaker 23: and say hey, hey guys, come on, this is you know, 1264 00:57:24,360 --> 00:57:27,240 Speaker 23: it's about the game. A couple of things. Though, I 1265 00:57:27,360 --> 00:57:31,600 Speaker 23: think this will be tough for the Nats at the 1266 00:57:31,720 --> 00:57:36,320 Speaker 23: stage in the electoral cycle. I think it reflects the 1267 00:57:36,520 --> 00:57:41,160 Speaker 23: mood music that is around at the moment people are feeling, 1268 00:57:41,360 --> 00:57:43,040 Speaker 23: and it's I don't think at the moment it's not 1269 00:57:43,200 --> 00:57:47,200 Speaker 23: just people not liking politicians. They're feeling so much in 1270 00:57:47,280 --> 00:57:49,920 Speaker 23: their back pocket that they really are feeling pissed off 1271 00:57:49,960 --> 00:57:53,160 Speaker 23: about it. So that's fair enough. The other thing to 1272 00:57:53,240 --> 00:57:55,479 Speaker 23: think about in this, I'd say this to you, Barry Soper, 1273 00:57:55,480 --> 00:57:58,680 Speaker 23: if you're listening at home, the netball crowd. Isn't the 1274 00:57:58,800 --> 00:58:03,960 Speaker 23: Wellington protest fringe to me? This is Middle New Zealand 1275 00:58:04,240 --> 00:58:08,240 Speaker 23: mums in that big bell curve of voters that national needs. 1276 00:58:08,360 --> 00:58:09,040 Speaker 3: Yes, they are. 1277 00:58:09,040 --> 00:58:13,880 Speaker 23: Women taking their girls predominantly to these games. And there 1278 00:58:14,040 --> 00:58:16,600 Speaker 23: is a problem for National which they already know about 1279 00:58:16,760 --> 00:58:21,280 Speaker 23: about the women's vote. So you know, you can put 1280 00:58:21,320 --> 00:58:23,880 Speaker 23: aside the noise, but they need to hear the signal. 1281 00:58:24,200 --> 00:58:26,720 Speaker 3: And if you are getting booed by women in west Auckland, 1282 00:58:26,720 --> 00:58:27,640 Speaker 3: you've got a problem, haven't you. 1283 00:58:27,880 --> 00:58:29,880 Speaker 7: You've got to mess a problem. The Nats have always 1284 00:58:29,920 --> 00:58:31,960 Speaker 7: had a problem, and Luxon in particulars have got a 1285 00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:33,600 Speaker 7: problem with the women vote. I don't know what they 1286 00:58:33,680 --> 00:58:36,120 Speaker 7: do about that. Whatever they do isn't working at this 1287 00:58:36,200 --> 00:58:38,680 Speaker 7: point in time. But Tricius, right, there's a general there's 1288 00:58:38,720 --> 00:58:41,960 Speaker 7: a general dissatisfaction with politicians right. There is no hero 1289 00:58:42,240 --> 00:58:45,040 Speaker 7: leader out there or even waiting in the wings. Luxon 1290 00:58:45,160 --> 00:58:47,200 Speaker 7: is not John Key, Hipkins is not just Cinda when 1291 00:58:47,200 --> 00:58:49,360 Speaker 7: she was really popular. There's no Helen Clark there. There's 1292 00:58:49,400 --> 00:58:52,600 Speaker 7: no one who you can identify in any party and 1293 00:58:52,720 --> 00:58:55,720 Speaker 7: say that is a future prime minister. Where we did 1294 00:58:55,760 --> 00:58:58,480 Speaker 7: with John Key, we kind of did with Jacinda. No 1295 00:58:58,600 --> 00:59:02,200 Speaker 7: one there so becoming more and more disenfranchised, which just 1296 00:59:02,280 --> 00:59:05,200 Speaker 7: opens the you know, opens the way for others potentially. 1297 00:59:05,280 --> 00:59:10,400 Speaker 23: Well, and think about John I didn't know you should 1298 00:59:10,440 --> 00:59:13,200 Speaker 23: ask with short here, but you know, remember think about 1299 00:59:13,640 --> 00:59:16,880 Speaker 23: John Key. He was mobbed wherever he went, when he 1300 00:59:17,080 --> 00:59:20,760 Speaker 23: was revered wherever he went, and you know, Jacinda had 1301 00:59:20,960 --> 00:59:24,520 Speaker 23: quite a bit of that at the start. So I 1302 00:59:24,640 --> 00:59:26,040 Speaker 23: think this is pretty unusual. 1303 00:59:26,520 --> 00:59:28,280 Speaker 3: I think it's unusual too. I mean, it is dead 1304 00:59:28,320 --> 00:59:31,160 Speaker 3: of winter and you know, worst recession in maybe thirty 1305 00:59:31,240 --> 00:59:32,680 Speaker 3: to fifty years, but it's still. 1306 00:59:32,640 --> 00:59:34,480 Speaker 7: Well, that's a sign for times, right. 1307 00:59:34,560 --> 00:59:36,880 Speaker 23: But also that's a great point to remember, Heather, this 1308 00:59:37,160 --> 00:59:39,760 Speaker 23: is the worst recession for thirty years, and I think 1309 00:59:40,200 --> 00:59:42,680 Speaker 23: politicians tend to gloss over that, and there's a lot 1310 00:59:42,720 --> 00:59:45,120 Speaker 23: of talk about it's all going well and there are 1311 00:59:45,200 --> 00:59:47,760 Speaker 23: these green shoots, but the reality is most New Zealanders 1312 00:59:48,200 --> 00:59:50,720 Speaker 23: have seen some green shoots, but now the frostbitten. 1313 00:59:50,800 --> 00:59:53,520 Speaker 7: Yeah, but let's be aware. Let's not make excuses for 1314 00:59:53,640 --> 00:59:55,960 Speaker 7: what I consider to be really bad behavior.

I am their father. 1335 01:00:42,720 --> 01:00:45,280 Speaker 7: And there's a completely different relationship between the younger ones 1336 01:00:45,640 --> 01:00:47,440 Speaker 7: and the old ones, as it should be. And they 1337 01:00:47,600 --> 01:00:50,080 Speaker 7: more from you know, they more from young ones that 1338 01:00:50,160 --> 01:00:54,000 Speaker 7: you need to teach about life into people who can 1339 01:00:54,040 --> 01:00:56,080 Speaker 7: live their own life and then they become friends. This 1340 01:00:56,280 --> 01:00:59,400 Speaker 7: whole bullshit that you're talking about here is no place. 1341 01:01:00,280 --> 01:01:03,440 Speaker 23: Can I give you an old fashioned view on what 1342 01:01:04,040 --> 01:01:06,400 Speaker 23: the way to really help kids know how to be 1343 01:01:06,480 --> 01:01:11,080 Speaker 23: a great human being. If parents focus on teaching children 1344 01:01:11,160 --> 01:01:14,560 Speaker 23: how to sit at a dinner table and eat what's 1345 01:01:14,600 --> 01:01:16,680 Speaker 23: put in front of them and be grateful for it 1346 01:01:16,880 --> 01:01:19,480 Speaker 23: and interact with everyone around the table. That is pretty 1347 01:01:19,560 --> 01:01:23,440 Speaker 23: much every life lesson you will need going forward. So 1348 01:01:23,520 --> 01:01:25,640 Speaker 23: in our house it was always dinner time was a 1349 01:01:25,800 --> 01:01:28,280 Speaker 23: real thing.

I've got to run you through this. 1404 01:03:29,280 --> 01:03:32,360 Speaker 3: Guess how many public servants we cut since the election. 1405 01:03:32,480 --> 01:03:34,400 Speaker 3: Remember how we were being told we're going to cut 1406 01:03:34,440 --> 01:03:36,440 Speaker 3: all these public servants and David Sema was saying, you know, 1407 01:03:36,920 --> 01:03:39,840 Speaker 3: like fifteen thousand. You should be expecting fifteen thousand. Do 1408 01:03:39,840 --> 01:03:43,479 Speaker 3: you know how many we've cut since the election? None, 1409 01:03:43,880 --> 01:03:47,160 Speaker 3: by the looks of things, maybe maybe added one hundred 1410 01:03:47,200 --> 01:03:49,200 Speaker 3: and twenty one now to be fair, Okay, it depends 1411 01:03:49,240 --> 01:03:52,440 Speaker 3: on where you measure the public servants from the least generous. 1412 01:03:52,720 --> 01:03:54,919 Speaker 3: The least generous measure is that we've added one hundred 1413 01:03:54,920 --> 01:03:57,920 Speaker 3: and twenty one. Actually, the most generous measure is that 1414 01:03:57,960 --> 01:04:00,760 Speaker 3: we've cut maybe nine hundred and thirty four. But out 1415 01:04:00,800 --> 01:04:04,640 Speaker 3: of out of sixty three thousand odd public servants, that's 1416 01:04:04,720 --> 01:04:08,000 Speaker 3: not a lot, especially when twenty seventeen there were only 1417 01:04:08,080 --> 01:04:09,800 Speaker 3: there were forty eight thousand, and we've jumped up to 1418 01:04:09,840 --> 01:04:11,560 Speaker 3: sixty three thousand. I feel like we need to slash 1419 01:04:11,600 --> 01:04:14,840 Speaker 3: and burn that stuff anyway, just another case of all talk, 1420 01:04:14,920 --> 01:04:16,919 Speaker 3: no delivery. We'll have a chat to Nikola Willis about 1421 01:04:16,920 --> 01:04:19,760 Speaker 3: that when she's with us. Now. On the gentle parenting. 1422 01:04:20,000 --> 01:04:22,320 Speaker 3: The reason I've raised this is because there is a 1423 01:04:22,440 --> 01:04:25,640 Speaker 3: report in the Wall Street Journal that gentle parenting is 1424 01:04:25,720 --> 01:04:28,920 Speaker 3: now officially out and FAFO is in, and FAFO is 1425 01:04:29,840 --> 01:04:33,120 Speaker 3: f around and find out as in, yeah, do that, 1426 01:04:33,480 --> 01:04:36,000 Speaker 3: do that, and find out what the consequences are, and 1427 01:04:36,080 --> 01:04:38,400 Speaker 3: they reckon that. What's going on is an increasing number 1428 01:04:38,440 --> 01:04:41,840 Speaker 3: of parents additching the softer approach to child rearing and 1429 01:04:42,000 --> 01:04:45,880 Speaker 3: taking this harder line of outferling the kids feral. For example, 1430 01:04:46,320 --> 01:04:49,600 Speaker 3: Carla Dylan tried lots of ways to discipline. It starts 1431 01:04:49,680 --> 01:04:52,840 Speaker 3: like this, the story to discipline her rambunctious thirteen year old, 1432 01:04:52,920 --> 01:04:55,840 Speaker 3: including making him write the same contrite sentence one hundred 1433 01:04:55,880 --> 01:04:58,960 Speaker 3: times when he sprayed her with a water gun at 1434 01:04:59,000 --> 01:05:01,840 Speaker 3: a campground after she had asked him not to. She 1435 01:05:02,000 --> 01:05:04,360 Speaker 3: only saw one option. She picked him up and threw 1436 01:05:04,440 --> 01:05:07,360 Speaker 3: him in the pond. Clothes and all that is FAFO 1437 01:05:07,480 --> 01:05:09,440 Speaker 3: in action, and I love it. I love it. 1438 01:05:09,520 --> 01:05:09,880 Speaker 4: I do this. 1439 01:05:09,960 --> 01:05:10,360 Speaker 12: Do you do this? 1440 01:05:10,480 --> 01:05:11,560 Speaker 8: I do this, I say. 1441 01:05:11,640 --> 01:05:14,440 Speaker 3: I'll say to the little guy, I say, Eggy, if 1442 01:05:14,520 --> 01:05:16,520 Speaker 3: you break that toy that you're about to break out, 1443 01:05:16,520 --> 01:05:18,280 Speaker 3: see mummy can see you're about to break that toy. 1444 01:05:18,360 --> 01:05:19,920 Speaker 3: You break that toy, why don't you find out what 1445 01:05:19,960 --> 01:05:21,440 Speaker 3: happens to your toy? Because you know what happens to 1446 01:05:21,440 --> 01:05:22,880 Speaker 3: your toy. I picked that toy up and I throw 1447 01:05:22,880 --> 01:05:24,040 Speaker 3: it in the bin. I'm not going to fix it. 1448 01:05:24,320 --> 01:05:25,920 Speaker 3: And then he breaks it. Then I throw it in 1449 01:05:26,000 --> 01:05:27,760 Speaker 3: the bin and I go too bad, and there's no 1450 01:05:27,880 --> 01:05:31,160 Speaker 3: coming back. There's no there's no amount of tears that 1451 01:05:31,320 --> 01:05:34,360 Speaker 3: you can possibly cry that gets that out of the bin. 1452 01:05:34,400 --> 01:05:36,440 Speaker 3: Because you've warned them about the consequences, you have to 1453 01:05:36,480 --> 01:05:41,160 Speaker 3: follow through. Apparently the feeling is gentle parenting, which is 1454 01:05:41,200 --> 01:05:43,160 Speaker 3: the one where I was explaining before, where they hit 1455 01:05:43,240 --> 01:05:45,280 Speaker 3: you in the face and you go, oh, you had 1456 01:05:45,320 --> 01:05:47,640 Speaker 3: a big feeling. Why did you hit mommy in the face. Oh, 1457 01:05:47,760 --> 01:05:51,400 Speaker 3: dear God alive. Apparently that has led to all of 1458 01:05:51,440 --> 01:05:53,640 Speaker 3: the problems that we've got with gen Z. They think 1459 01:05:53,760 --> 01:05:56,640 Speaker 3: gen Z gen Z struggle in the workplace relationships, and 1460 01:05:56,720 --> 01:05:58,840 Speaker 3: they think that's because parents never told them no, but 1461 01:05:59,000 --> 01:06:00,600 Speaker 3: just gave them the chocolate bar in the aisle of 1462 01:06:00,680 --> 01:06:03,640 Speaker 3: the supermarket.

Nikola willis next. 1480 01:06:51,040 --> 01:06:53,240 Speaker 4: Keeping track of where the money is flowing. 1481 01:06:53,640 --> 01:06:56,600 Speaker 1: The business hour we've handed due for Sea Alp and 1482 01:06:56,960 --> 01:06:59,520 Speaker 1: MAS for Trusted Home Insurance Solutions. 1483 01:07:00,080 --> 01:07:00,600 Speaker 4: Talks at b. 1484 01:07:02,240 --> 01:07:04,120 Speaker 3: Evening coming up in the next hour.

Shane Soley on 1487 01:07:09,720 --> 01:07:11,600 Speaker 3: that and Gavin Gray does the UK for US right 1488 01:07:11,640 --> 01:07:13,320 Speaker 3: now at seven past six and with US as Nichola 1489 01:07:13,360 --> 01:07:15,560 Speaker 3: Willis the Finance Minister evening Nikola. 1490 01:07:15,920 --> 01:07:19,400 Speaker 8: Good evening here the research for US. I have been 1491 01:07:19,480 --> 01:07:22,680 Speaker 8: doing a bit of detective work. You'll recall you accuse 1492 01:07:22,800 --> 01:07:26,360 Speaker 8: me of being the MP in Jacinda's book who outrageously 1493 01:07:26,960 --> 01:07:30,080 Speaker 8: heckled her, and I've had it confirmed that it was 1494 01:07:30,240 --> 01:07:34,600 Speaker 8: in fact Amy Adams. She has confirmed that herself and 1495 01:07:34,720 --> 01:07:36,640 Speaker 8: I think it's fair to say she doesn't regret it 1496 01:07:37,000 --> 01:07:40,400 Speaker 8: at all. The only thing that she regrets is the 1497 01:07:40,480 --> 01:07:43,480 Speaker 8: fact that she was described as having a private school voice. 1498 01:07:43,880 --> 01:07:47,240 Speaker 8: She's very proud of having attended a large public co 1499 01:07:47,560 --> 01:07:48,000 Speaker 8: ed school. 1500 01:07:48,440 --> 01:07:51,080 Speaker 3: Oh okay, So, so Amy said, it's okay for you 1501 01:07:51,160 --> 01:07:51,680 Speaker 3: to out. 1502 01:07:51,520 --> 01:07:54,840 Speaker 8: Her absolutely, I said, wow, I think Heather would like 1503 01:07:54,920 --> 01:07:57,240 Speaker 8: to know this. Are you okay with me sharing with 1504 01:07:57,320 --> 01:07:59,880 Speaker 8: the public and she said, No, I'm not ashamed at all. 1505 01:08:00,000 --> 01:08:03,040 Speaker 8: In fact, I think heckling someone on your first term 1506 01:08:03,160 --> 01:08:05,520 Speaker 8: is not to be ashamed of. 1507 01:08:05,720 --> 01:08:07,600 Speaker 3: No, totally. And I mean in the end, heckling j 1508 01:08:07,680 --> 01:08:08,960 Speaker 3: Cinda is actually about it of honor. 1509 01:08:09,200 --> 01:08:10,480 Speaker 10: But what do you think? 1510 01:08:10,560 --> 01:08:12,200 Speaker 8: That was the exact phrase she used. 1511 01:08:15,160 --> 01:08:17,880 Speaker 3: Amy is nothing if not hard as nails to this day. 1512 01:08:18,120 --> 01:08:20,080 Speaker 3: What do you think about her act? I mean you're 1513 01:08:20,120 --> 01:08:21,760 Speaker 3: not a good judge because you don't think that you've 1514 01:08:21,800 --> 01:08:25,040 Speaker 3: got a private school accent. I think you do well. 1515 01:08:25,160 --> 01:08:27,799 Speaker 8: I think it's important in a job where you publicly 1516 01:08:27,840 --> 01:08:30,680 Speaker 8: are communicating that you make yourself well understood and you 1517 01:08:30,880 --> 01:08:33,920 Speaker 8: enunciate your words well. But then I also recall John 1518 01:08:34,000 --> 01:08:36,360 Speaker 8: Key was a brilliant Prime minister and man, oh man, 1519 01:08:36,439 --> 01:08:37,599 Speaker 8: did he mash his words from time? 1520 01:08:37,720 --> 01:08:39,920 Speaker 3: He made a lot of them up, didn't he? He 1521 01:08:40,040 --> 01:08:40,320 Speaker 3: really did? 1522 01:08:40,439 --> 01:08:40,559 Speaker 6: Well. 1523 01:08:40,560 --> 01:08:42,800 Speaker 3: Thank you for doing that, because if there's nothing, I 1524 01:08:43,760 --> 01:08:45,760 Speaker 3: love a fact and I love clarifying the fact. And 1525 01:08:45,800 --> 01:08:50,000 Speaker 3: I shall write that in the book that one Amy Adams. Now, 1526 01:08:50,479 --> 01:08:52,599 Speaker 3: what is going on with the surcharge band? Because I'll 1527 01:08:52,600 --> 01:08:54,160 Speaker 3: tell you what. I'm getting a lot of texts from 1528 01:08:54,200 --> 01:08:56,040 Speaker 3: small business owners who are pretty upset about it. 1529 01:08:57,360 --> 01:09:01,200 Speaker 8: Well, look, there's two things. First, last week, the Commerce 1530 01:09:01,240 --> 01:09:04,400 Speaker 8: Commission came out with a ruling that said that they're 1531 01:09:04,439 --> 01:09:08,960 Speaker 8: going to regulate down the charges that retailers have to 1532 01:09:09,080 --> 01:09:12,840 Speaker 8: pay merchants. So these are the interchange fees to MasterCard 1533 01:09:12,960 --> 01:09:16,360 Speaker 8: and Visa. So that is worth about ninety million dollars 1534 01:09:16,400 --> 01:09:19,679 Speaker 8: worth of savings to retailers. It averages about five hundred 1535 01:09:19,680 --> 01:09:23,000 Speaker 8: dollars a week for a small business, so very significant. 1536 01:09:23,400 --> 01:09:26,400 Speaker 8: Then the second thing becomes, how do you make sure 1537 01:09:26,479 --> 01:09:30,200 Speaker 8: that that overall reduction and cost is actually passed through 1538 01:09:30,240 --> 01:09:33,640 Speaker 8: to the shopper and they're not just charged surcharges that 1539 01:09:33,840 --> 01:09:38,000 Speaker 8: no longer reflect the actual cost to retailers. So rather 1540 01:09:38,120 --> 01:09:41,760 Speaker 8: than coming up with a complicated formula, we've just said, look, 1541 01:09:41,920 --> 01:09:45,840 Speaker 8: no more charges like that for MasterCard and Visa. And 1542 01:09:46,880 --> 01:09:49,639 Speaker 8: if retailers do think they still have some costs, then 1543 01:09:50,000 --> 01:09:51,519 Speaker 8: they need to reflect those in the same way they 1544 01:09:51,600 --> 01:09:53,840 Speaker 8: do the cost of electricity. It's the cost of rent, 1545 01:09:53,960 --> 01:09:55,360 Speaker 8: the cost of rates, all of that stuff. 1546 01:09:55,400 --> 01:09:57,560 Speaker 3: So the charges that we're talking about in total, the 1547 01:09:57,640 --> 01:09:59,960 Speaker 3: merchant fees, how much do you reckon retailers a getting 1548 01:10:00,120 --> 01:10:01,599 Speaker 3: charged in merchant fees every year? 1549 01:10:02,560 --> 01:10:04,519 Speaker 8: Well, I don't know that, and to the extent that 1550 01:10:04,640 --> 01:10:06,320 Speaker 8: I would, it's commercially sensitive. 1551 01:10:06,320 --> 01:10:09,640 Speaker 3: It's billions overall. It's billions in billions right because the 1552 01:10:09,720 --> 01:10:12,599 Speaker 3: interchange fee, which is just a component, is one billion, 1553 01:10:12,680 --> 01:10:15,280 Speaker 3: so it's multiple billions. So what do you think, Nicley, 1554 01:10:15,320 --> 01:10:16,560 Speaker 3: you know how this works. What do you think is 1555 01:10:16,600 --> 01:10:18,320 Speaker 3: going to happen? The retailers can't pass it on to 1556 01:10:18,439 --> 01:10:20,720 Speaker 3: us now transparently in a search charge. They're going to 1557 01:10:20,760 --> 01:10:22,439 Speaker 3: build it into their prices. We're all going to pay 1558 01:10:22,479 --> 01:10:23,040 Speaker 3: this now, aren't we. 1559 01:10:23,520 --> 01:10:25,640 Speaker 8: Well I would reverse it and say, actually, it is 1560 01:10:25,720 --> 01:10:28,080 Speaker 8: now going to be transparent because instead of it giving 1561 01:10:28,120 --> 01:10:31,400 Speaker 8: you a little spike when you get to the counter 1562 01:10:31,520 --> 01:10:33,000 Speaker 8: and you went factoring that in when. 1563 01:10:32,920 --> 01:10:34,600 Speaker 3: You don't have the power you wanted to buy them 1564 01:10:35,360 --> 01:10:36,040 Speaker 3: cost card. 1565 01:10:36,760 --> 01:10:39,479 Speaker 8: Well, not everyone has that choice, and it's actually a bit. 1566 01:10:39,400 --> 01:10:42,639 Speaker 3: Of a costcard that has a credit card. 1567 01:10:43,439 --> 01:10:46,519 Speaker 8: Well, there are a range of different rates that are 1568 01:10:46,600 --> 01:10:49,840 Speaker 8: charged from store to store, and I would love to 1569 01:10:49,880 --> 01:10:52,599 Speaker 8: meet the New Zealander who's never got sticker shock when 1570 01:10:52,600 --> 01:10:54,720 Speaker 8: they went to pay and ended up with a big 1571 01:10:54,800 --> 01:10:58,360 Speaker 8: surcharge when they did that. This is about transparent fear pricing. 1572 01:10:58,720 --> 01:11:01,000 Speaker 8: So the price that you see on the tag as. 1573 01:11:00,880 --> 01:11:02,960 Speaker 3: The program you pay. If it truly is, then why 1574 01:11:03,000 --> 01:11:05,280 Speaker 3: didn't you guys deal to Air New Zealand and ticket Master, 1575 01:11:05,360 --> 01:11:06,880 Speaker 3: who are frankly the most egregious. 1576 01:11:08,920 --> 01:11:11,200 Speaker 8: Well are you talking about online payment? 1577 01:11:11,400 --> 01:11:13,599 Speaker 3: So when you go and book yourself? Yeah, I tried 1578 01:11:13,640 --> 01:11:16,000 Speaker 3: today to see what is the New Zealand charging if 1579 01:11:16,000 --> 01:11:17,680 Speaker 3: I book a couple of flights and it was a 1580 01:11:17,720 --> 01:11:20,599 Speaker 3: six dollar fee. Laura the producer went to go look 1581 01:11:20,640 --> 01:11:22,639 Speaker 3: at the banks. He aren't. She got charged eight dollars 1582 01:11:22,680 --> 01:11:25,479 Speaker 3: by ticket Master almost she didn't go through with it 1583 01:11:25,560 --> 01:11:26,880 Speaker 3: in the end because of that. She was going to 1584 01:11:26,920 --> 01:11:28,920 Speaker 3: get charged eight dollars by ticket Master. So why didn't 1585 01:11:28,920 --> 01:11:29,720 Speaker 3: you guys sort that out? 1586 01:11:30,360 --> 01:11:30,559 Speaker 2: Well? 1587 01:11:30,760 --> 01:11:34,519 Speaker 8: I understand that the fees for that that retailers pay 1588 01:11:34,880 --> 01:11:37,519 Speaker 8: or sellers of services in this Casey and New Zealand 1589 01:11:38,040 --> 01:11:41,240 Speaker 8: are a lot higher because it's a much more complicated system, 1590 01:11:41,320 --> 01:11:43,200 Speaker 8: because they need to be able to do refunds, they 1591 01:11:43,280 --> 01:11:46,880 Speaker 8: need to protect against fraud, online scams and the like. 1592 01:11:47,000 --> 01:11:49,519 Speaker 8: So there is a genuinely much higher cost that they 1593 01:11:49,600 --> 01:11:51,520 Speaker 8: have to bear for those online transactions. 1594 01:11:51,600 --> 01:11:54,519 Speaker 3: You know that and show you guys that stuff. 1595 01:11:55,640 --> 01:11:59,320 Speaker 8: Well that that was reflected in the commerce comicular decisions 1596 01:11:59,400 --> 01:11:59,840 Speaker 8: last week. 1597 01:12:00,120 --> 01:12:03,040 Speaker 3: But if you force a dairy to absorb all of 1598 01:12:03,120 --> 01:12:05,640 Speaker 3: those merchant fees, and why can't you force you know, 1599 01:12:05,760 --> 01:12:08,200 Speaker 3: ticket mask, which is a global company, to absorb the 1600 01:12:08,360 --> 01:12:09,160 Speaker 3: handling fee. 1601 01:12:09,880 --> 01:12:12,519 Speaker 8: Well, a couple of things there. First, it's because it 1602 01:12:12,640 --> 01:12:14,960 Speaker 8: is genuinely a lot more expensive for them to do 1603 01:12:15,000 --> 01:12:18,200 Speaker 8: those online transactions. The second thing is we remain quite 1604 01:12:18,280 --> 01:12:20,920 Speaker 8: hopeful that fintech companies will be coming up with better 1605 01:12:21,000 --> 01:12:24,519 Speaker 8: solutions in that online space and there's now going to 1606 01:12:24,560 --> 01:12:25,800 Speaker 8: be room for them to compete there. 1607 01:12:26,080 --> 01:12:28,800 Speaker 3: Hey listen, Okay, So we have got some debate in 1608 01:12:28,880 --> 01:12:31,000 Speaker 3: the numbers at the moment about how many public servants 1609 01:12:31,000 --> 01:12:33,120 Speaker 3: you've actually managed to cut since coming into government. 1610 01:12:33,160 --> 01:12:33,519 Speaker 20: What is it? 1611 01:12:33,920 --> 01:12:36,080 Speaker 3: Is it added one hundred and twenty one or is 1612 01:12:36,120 --> 01:12:37,519 Speaker 3: it cut nine hundred and thirty four? 1613 01:12:38,280 --> 01:12:41,040 Speaker 8: A cut about two thousand la three? 1614 01:12:41,120 --> 01:12:41,519 Speaker 3: Serious? 1615 01:12:41,720 --> 01:12:42,840 Speaker 8: Another I saw, No. 1616 01:12:43,000 --> 01:12:45,200 Speaker 3: That's only from the peak. That's the peak that you 1617 01:12:45,360 --> 01:12:46,800 Speaker 3: reached when you guys were in there. If you go 1618 01:12:46,880 --> 01:12:49,759 Speaker 3: from September just before the election, which is about sixty 1619 01:12:49,800 --> 01:12:52,040 Speaker 3: four thousand, you've only managed to cut nine hundred and 1620 01:12:52,080 --> 01:12:53,920 Speaker 3: thirty four. Why what's going on? 1621 01:12:54,920 --> 01:12:55,120 Speaker 23: Well? 1622 01:12:55,240 --> 01:12:58,400 Speaker 8: Two things. The first is that this is the first 1623 01:12:58,520 --> 01:13:02,679 Speaker 8: year since twenty six that the number of policy, clerical 1624 01:13:02,800 --> 01:13:05,920 Speaker 8: and admin staff has actually dropped, so we're very much 1625 01:13:06,000 --> 01:13:09,960 Speaker 8: focused on those roles. At the same time, the number 1626 01:13:10,000 --> 01:13:15,320 Speaker 8: of people hired by Corrections to lock up criminals has increased. 1627 01:13:14,960 --> 01:13:15,439 Speaker 3: By how many? 1628 01:13:15,520 --> 01:13:16,240 Speaker 8: By hundreds? 1629 01:13:16,479 --> 01:13:16,840 Speaker 3: How many? 1630 01:13:16,880 --> 01:13:20,280 Speaker 8: By hundreds? Hundreds? Well, I'm advised that there are six 1631 01:13:20,439 --> 01:13:25,080 Speaker 8: hundred and forty five more inspectors and regulators, that there 1632 01:13:25,400 --> 01:13:29,320 Speaker 8: are hundreds more working in our contact centers, around seven 1633 01:13:29,439 --> 01:13:32,280 Speaker 8: hundred and seventy seven, So that's direct service delivery to 1634 01:13:32,400 --> 01:13:34,720 Speaker 8: New Zealanders. So what you're seeing is those numbers are 1635 01:13:34,800 --> 01:13:37,360 Speaker 8: increasing to make sure that we're delivering good public services 1636 01:13:37,439 --> 01:13:40,880 Speaker 8: to people. The same time, we have made actual cuts 1637 01:13:41,200 --> 01:13:43,439 Speaker 8: to those back office roles as we said we would. 1638 01:13:43,479 --> 01:13:45,920 Speaker 8: And at the same time, either let's not forget the 1639 01:13:46,040 --> 01:13:50,639 Speaker 8: last government was spending hundreds of millions on consultants as 1640 01:13:50,720 --> 01:13:53,519 Speaker 8: well as having all of those policy advisors, and we 1641 01:13:53,600 --> 01:13:56,719 Speaker 8: have reduced that bill significantly. In fact, we've ever shot 1642 01:13:56,800 --> 01:13:57,439 Speaker 8: our own target. 1643 01:13:57,520 --> 01:14:00,400 Speaker 3: But I mean, this is a government that promised cuts 1644 01:14:00,439 --> 01:14:02,840 Speaker 3: off maybe as many as fifteen thousand public servants. Can 1645 01:14:02,880 --> 01:14:04,680 Speaker 3: you see why people might be a bit disappointed? 1646 01:14:05,439 --> 01:14:08,320 Speaker 8: Well, I certainly never made that promise. But you know, 1647 01:14:08,520 --> 01:14:11,800 Speaker 8: I am kind of amused on one level, which is 1648 01:14:11,880 --> 01:14:13,880 Speaker 8: that you get labor out there saying that I've cut 1649 01:14:14,080 --> 01:14:18,160 Speaker 8: thousands and thousands of public servants, which just sort of 1650 01:14:18,520 --> 01:14:20,400 Speaker 8: makes you think, well, if they get away with that 1651 01:14:20,560 --> 01:14:22,920 Speaker 8: line and it's repeated at infinite and what else are 1652 01:14:22,960 --> 01:14:26,720 Speaker 8: they telling you that mightily is exaggerated. At the same time, 1653 01:14:27,240 --> 01:14:30,200 Speaker 8: what we are doing is focusing that we're hiring more police, 1654 01:14:30,240 --> 01:14:33,439 Speaker 8: We're hiring more teachers, more corrections officers, all of those 1655 01:14:33,479 --> 01:14:35,640 Speaker 8: frontline roles, as we said we would. But at the 1656 01:14:35,680 --> 01:14:38,280 Speaker 8: same time, as I said, first time since twenty sixteen 1657 01:14:38,880 --> 01:14:42,800 Speaker 8: that a government has reduced the number of policy advisors, must. 1658 01:14:42,600 --> 01:14:44,200 Speaker 3: Strikes me that this is the problem that you guys 1659 01:14:44,240 --> 01:14:46,599 Speaker 3: have got, And this is becoming very much a pattern, 1660 01:14:46,680 --> 01:14:51,400 Speaker 3: right that you go so hard on the rhetoric and 1661 01:14:51,479 --> 01:14:53,400 Speaker 3: then cop all of the blowback for it, and then 1662 01:14:53,439 --> 01:14:55,600 Speaker 3: in fact nothing really changes. So you're wearing all of 1663 01:14:55,640 --> 01:14:58,280 Speaker 3: the stuff for not changing anything, and you're disappointing the 1664 01:14:58,280 --> 01:15:00,400 Speaker 3: people who think you're charging things, and then you diappointing 1665 01:15:00,400 --> 01:15:01,720 Speaker 3: the people when they find out they haven't changed. 1666 01:15:01,720 --> 01:15:03,800 Speaker 8: You haven't changed, well from our perspective sitting there and 1667 01:15:03,840 --> 01:15:06,720 Speaker 8: looking at budgets. It's changed pretty fundamentally because the last 1668 01:15:06,800 --> 01:15:09,479 Speaker 8: government every budget was having to fork out hundreds of 1669 01:15:09,560 --> 01:15:13,160 Speaker 8: millions of dollars more for a ballooning public sector. We 1670 01:15:13,439 --> 01:15:16,040 Speaker 8: have started from a very different position. We started by 1671 01:15:16,120 --> 01:15:19,200 Speaker 8: reducing its spend and then each budget, rather than them 1672 01:15:19,280 --> 01:15:21,599 Speaker 8: coming to us with all of their ideas, they only 1673 01:15:21,680 --> 01:15:24,880 Speaker 8: even get invited into the budget process at our requests. 1674 01:15:25,120 --> 01:15:26,599 Speaker 8: So it's a very different environment. 1675 01:15:26,800 --> 01:15:26,960 Speaker 1: I know. 1676 01:15:27,120 --> 01:15:28,960 Speaker 3: But you know, you might be impressed, but it's really 1677 01:15:29,000 --> 01:15:30,400 Speaker 3: hard to be impressed on the other side of the 1678 01:15:30,479 --> 01:15:32,920 Speaker 3: say like this is incredibly disappointing. I think there's a 1679 01:15:32,960 --> 01:15:34,479 Speaker 3: lot of disappointment over and over again. 1680 01:15:35,920 --> 01:15:37,880 Speaker 8: Well, we have to make sure that we have the 1681 01:15:37,920 --> 01:15:41,800 Speaker 8: resources in place to deliver our jobs, deliver our services, deliver, 1682 01:15:42,439 --> 01:15:44,840 Speaker 8: deliver to New Zealanders, and we're ensuring that we do 1683 01:15:45,040 --> 01:15:48,240 Speaker 8: while also continuing to put the hammer down, put the 1684 01:15:48,320 --> 01:15:51,360 Speaker 8: pressure down on those back officels really quickly. 1685 01:15:51,439 --> 01:15:54,000 Speaker 3: Barry Soper Reckins, You've got the big supermarket announcement in 1686 01:15:54,000 --> 01:15:54,960 Speaker 3: about a couple of weeks, is. 1687 01:15:54,960 --> 01:15:58,120 Speaker 8: That right, Well, the Prime Minister is confirmed, we'll be 1688 01:15:58,200 --> 01:16:03,360 Speaker 8: making an announcement this quarter, so that this quarter hens 1689 01:16:03,400 --> 01:16:04,160 Speaker 8: at the end of August. 1690 01:16:04,320 --> 01:16:06,080 Speaker 3: Oh okay, so six weeks all right, hate well five, 1691 01:16:06,160 --> 01:16:08,240 Speaker 3: Thank you very much, Nicole.

We now 1698 01:16:23,160 --> 01:16:25,760 Speaker 3: use wind Cave and what was a few hundred dollars 1699 01:16:25,800 --> 01:16:28,000 Speaker 3: per month is now over ten thousand dollars. That's from 1700 01:16:28,000 --> 01:16:32,240 Speaker 3: Stephen Heather. This government has full merchant fees onto small 1701 01:16:32,240 --> 01:16:34,840 Speaker 3: businesses and allowed Visa Mastercar to set any rate they want. 1702 01:16:34,880 --> 01:16:36,960 Speaker 3: From a center right voter, I'm done with this government. 1703 01:16:37,200 --> 01:16:39,000 Speaker 3: Here the get out of my life government. I will 1704 01:16:39,040 --> 01:16:41,519 Speaker 3: never pay. I never pay the surcharge ever, but now 1705 01:16:41,640 --> 01:16:45,560 Speaker 3: I will without wanting to cheers for nothing. Yeah, I 1706 01:16:45,640 --> 01:16:48,880 Speaker 3: don't think. I don't know, do you know what? It's 1707 01:16:48,920 --> 01:16:50,760 Speaker 3: one of those things though where it may well, it 1708 01:16:50,960 --> 01:16:53,960 Speaker 3: may well just be that it works brilliantly as retail politics. 1709 01:16:54,080 --> 01:16:57,559 Speaker 3: Most people go yay, no surcharge, and those of us 1710 01:16:57,600 --> 01:16:59,400 Speaker 3: who see the problems that are just to select few 1711 01:16:59,400 --> 01:17:01,320 Speaker 3: who have to get up over at twenty pass six 1712 01:17:01,680 --> 01:17:04,960 Speaker 3: with me. Now is Shane Solly, Harbor Asset Management. Hey Shane, 1713 01:17:05,680 --> 01:17:08,280 Speaker 3: Hello Heather. Now how have the markets reacted to the 1714 01:17:08,360 --> 01:17:09,960 Speaker 3: EU and the US doing this trade deal? 1715 01:17:10,680 --> 01:17:10,880 Speaker 7: Well? 1716 01:17:11,400 --> 01:17:13,719 Speaker 13: Yeah, after a bit of golf in the weekend in Scotland, 1717 01:17:14,120 --> 01:17:16,280 Speaker 13: mister Trump on bar of the US is cut a 1718 01:17:16,320 --> 01:17:19,559 Speaker 13: deal with the European Union and l see EU face 1719 01:17:19,680 --> 01:17:23,160 Speaker 13: fifteen percent tariffs on most of the exports. That means 1720 01:17:23,200 --> 01:17:26,280 Speaker 13: they avoid the thirty percent plus number that mister Trump 1721 01:17:26,360 --> 01:17:29,560 Speaker 13: tariff did a little while ago. It doesn't include pharmaceuticals 1722 01:17:29,560 --> 01:17:33,080 Speaker 13: and metal sects. It's except so the market likes it. 1723 01:17:33,240 --> 01:17:36,519 Speaker 13: But what the market's also focusing on either is tonight 1724 01:17:36,760 --> 01:17:41,160 Speaker 13: in Stockholm, mister percent the Treasury Secretary for the US's 1725 01:17:41,240 --> 01:17:44,000 Speaker 13: meeting with the Chinese, and there's a rumor come out 1726 01:17:44,000 --> 01:17:46,439 Speaker 13: of the South China Morning Post saying that they're going 1727 01:17:46,479 --> 01:17:50,000 Speaker 13: to extend the tariff truce by another three months. No sources, 1728 01:17:50,040 --> 01:17:52,880 Speaker 13: of course, but that would mean that we're seeing that 1729 01:17:53,040 --> 01:17:55,599 Speaker 13: can kick down the road. Seeingly, I think this greater 1730 01:17:55,800 --> 01:17:59,759 Speaker 13: certainty that we're seeing at the European deal, the Japanese 1731 01:17:59,800 --> 01:18:02,240 Speaker 13: deal last year, just taking some of the risk away 1732 01:18:02,720 --> 01:18:07,439 Speaker 13: for capital markets, supporting a further broad based recovery and 1733 01:18:07,800 --> 01:18:09,800 Speaker 13: shear markets. Even our shre market today had a bit 1734 01:18:09,800 --> 01:18:12,519 Speaker 13: of a balance today either up zero point four percent, 1735 01:18:12,600 --> 01:18:14,679 Speaker 13: but will take it so be more positive. 1736 01:18:14,960 --> 01:18:17,760 Speaker 3: How good do you think that Donald Trump's pressure is 1737 01:18:17,800 --> 01:18:20,439 Speaker 3: going to lead to a cut by the Federal Reserve 1738 01:18:20,520 --> 01:18:20,840 Speaker 3: this week? 1739 01:18:22,200 --> 01:18:25,800 Speaker 13: Certainly heaping on the pressure. The short answer is the 1740 01:18:25,880 --> 01:18:28,320 Speaker 13: markets don't think so. The market thinks the Federal Open 1741 01:18:28,360 --> 01:18:30,800 Speaker 13: Market Committee it's going to hold the Fed funds rate 1742 01:18:30,840 --> 01:18:32,840 Speaker 13: at at four point twenty five four point five percent 1743 01:18:33,400 --> 01:18:37,880 Speaker 13: range on Thursday, watching for changes in the language, which 1744 01:18:38,080 --> 01:18:41,120 Speaker 13: you know, the US economy is in pretty resilient. The 1745 01:18:41,160 --> 01:18:43,559 Speaker 13: inflation is coming in lower, of course, so it's getting 1746 01:18:43,600 --> 01:18:45,720 Speaker 13: harder for the US Fed the Reserve to say no. 1747 01:18:46,560 --> 01:18:49,040 Speaker 13: Every central bank wants to see what tarrifs do, so 1748 01:18:49,439 --> 01:18:52,599 Speaker 13: there'll be a few dissenters on the committee. We would 1749 01:18:52,680 --> 01:18:54,880 Speaker 13: not be surprised to see cuts by the US Federal 1750 01:18:54,920 --> 01:18:58,040 Speaker 13: Reserve later in the year, markets thinking December and another 1751 01:18:58,080 --> 01:19:01,320 Speaker 13: one in twenty six. On Thursday, we might get a 1752 01:19:01,320 --> 01:19:03,479 Speaker 13: little bit of a skew saying the cuts are going 1753 01:19:03,560 --> 01:19:07,240 Speaker 13: to be earlier or more substantial, So that will be 1754 01:19:07,320 --> 01:19:09,640 Speaker 13: driven by data. And mister Powell has j Powell, the 1755 01:19:10,000 --> 01:19:14,160 Speaker 13: head of the Fed, has been very resilient in pushing 1756 01:19:14,320 --> 01:19:15,400 Speaker 13: back on political pressure. 1757 01:19:16,080 --> 01:19:18,960 Speaker 3: Now we've had quite a few changes a spark today. 1758 01:19:19,000 --> 01:19:19,960 Speaker 3: What's the market made of this? 1759 01:19:21,080 --> 01:19:24,759 Speaker 13: Yeah, so we've seen a couple of board member changes 1760 01:19:25,160 --> 01:19:29,839 Speaker 13: Lindsay Wright, Vinshawksworth and Tarequabauta coming on and Gordon McLeod 1761 01:19:29,920 --> 01:19:31,479 Speaker 13: and Sheridan Broadbent coming off. 1762 01:19:32,320 --> 01:19:32,679 Speaker 6: Spark. 1763 01:19:33,280 --> 01:19:34,840 Speaker 13: The Altellicom New Zone has been on under a lot 1764 01:19:34,880 --> 01:19:38,920 Speaker 13: of pressure to refresh the board after share price has 1765 01:19:39,160 --> 01:19:43,240 Speaker 13: underperformed basically over the last three years. It's underperformed by 1766 01:19:43,320 --> 01:19:45,439 Speaker 13: forty eight percent versus the rest of the market, ie 1767 01:19:46,240 --> 01:19:48,880 Speaker 13: the New Zealand sharemakers have about forty percent in the 1768 01:19:49,000 --> 01:19:52,400 Speaker 13: three years and sparks down thirty four percent.

Anyway, I got number one coming up shortly. 1838 01:23:25,080 --> 01:23:27,599 Speaker 3: We're skipping number two and ANTS will explain why shortly. 1839 01:23:27,920 --> 01:23:29,960 Speaker 3: Right now, it's twenty four away from seven now. There 1840 01:23:30,000 --> 01:23:32,599 Speaker 3: were almost twenty eight thousand fewer jobs in June compared 1841 01:23:32,600 --> 01:23:35,400 Speaker 3: to last June. More than twelve thousand of those lost 1842 01:23:35,439 --> 01:23:37,760 Speaker 3: jobs came from the construction sector. Almost six thousand were 1843 01:23:37,800 --> 01:23:41,799 Speaker 3: manufacturing jobs. Education and primary industries added jobs. Brad Olson 1844 01:23:41,840 --> 01:23:45,360 Speaker 3: as INFA Metrics principal economist, Hey, Brad, good evening. Look, 1845 01:23:45,439 --> 01:23:47,680 Speaker 3: I mean, you know, lost jobs has lost jobs, and 1846 01:23:47,720 --> 01:23:49,960 Speaker 3: it's never great. But is this as bad as expected 1847 01:23:50,080 --> 01:23:51,760 Speaker 3: or is it worse or not and not as bad? 1848 01:23:53,080 --> 01:23:55,280 Speaker 9: Well, I mean, look, it's certainly challenging when the economy 1849 01:23:55,320 --> 01:23:57,840 Speaker 9: has lost twenty eight thousand rolls over the last year, 1850 01:23:58,400 --> 01:24:01,280 Speaker 9: But in fearness, we've sort of already known that for 1851 01:24:01,360 --> 01:24:03,559 Speaker 9: quite a few months. You look back at what we've 1852 01:24:03,600 --> 01:24:06,240 Speaker 9: seen over the last couple and job numbers have been 1853 01:24:06,320 --> 01:24:09,960 Speaker 9: down at this level or if not even worse of 1854 01:24:10,040 --> 01:24:12,920 Speaker 9: an annual decline. That's not to say that things are 1855 01:24:12,960 --> 01:24:15,600 Speaker 9: easy at the moment, but we have been seeing on 1856 01:24:15,680 --> 01:24:18,040 Speaker 9: a more month to month basis that job numbers in 1857 01:24:18,080 --> 01:24:20,880 Speaker 9: New Zealand have broadly been tracking sideways, some months up, 1858 01:24:20,960 --> 01:24:23,960 Speaker 9: some months down, but really no real trend. And I 1859 01:24:24,000 --> 01:24:26,639 Speaker 9: think that's probably the wider concern. We know that there's 1860 01:24:26,680 --> 01:24:29,400 Speaker 9: been a big job drop in jobs, but people are 1861 01:24:29,479 --> 01:24:31,599 Speaker 9: now looking and going well. Surely now that we're starting 1862 01:24:31,640 --> 01:24:33,920 Speaker 9: to see some of those the economic rev up, that's 1863 01:24:33,960 --> 01:24:36,640 Speaker 9: being talked about where are the jobs we're starting to 1864 01:24:36,720 --> 01:24:39,400 Speaker 9: see that growth yet, and unfortunately, so far, there's just 1865 01:24:39,520 --> 01:24:42,160 Speaker 9: not really any evidence. In the month of June a 1866 01:24:42,439 --> 01:24:45,479 Speaker 9: very slight zero point one percent increase in the seasonally 1867 01:24:45,479 --> 01:24:49,240 Speaker 9: adjusted monthly figures, but really no real trend in so far. 1868 01:24:49,360 --> 01:24:51,360 Speaker 9: There's just no evidence that we're seeing a pick up 1869 01:24:51,439 --> 01:24:55,439 Speaker 9: quite yet. Have we reached the bottom though, I think 1870 01:24:55,479 --> 01:24:59,320 Speaker 9: we probably have, or you'd certainly hope so, over the 1871 01:24:59,360 --> 01:25:01,040 Speaker 9: next couple of month at least, I don't think it 1872 01:25:01,080 --> 01:25:03,400 Speaker 9: would start to deteriorate. 1873 01:25:02,960 --> 01:25:03,479 Speaker 4: All that much. 1874 01:25:03,560 --> 01:25:06,240 Speaker 9: Further, we're still expecting that the likes of the unemployment 1875 01:25:06,320 --> 01:25:09,200 Speaker 9: rate will peak ever so slightly higher than where it 1876 01:25:09,400 --> 01:25:11,280 Speaker 9: was at the start of this year, around five point 1877 01:25:11,320 --> 01:25:15,080 Speaker 9: three percent over the next couple of months. But interestingly, 1878 01:25:15,200 --> 01:25:17,760 Speaker 9: you're starting to see in some areas actually a bit 1879 01:25:17,800 --> 01:25:20,400 Speaker 9: of growth. For the likes of the South Island job 1880 01:25:20,479 --> 01:25:23,760 Speaker 9: numbers are now up ever so slightly on where they 1881 01:25:23,800 --> 01:25:26,080 Speaker 9: were a year ago. It's just that North Island job 1882 01:25:26,120 --> 01:25:28,720 Speaker 9: figures are down quite heavily, and so I think that 1883 01:25:28,880 --> 01:25:31,080 Speaker 9: does start to highlight that, yes, there are some areas 1884 01:25:31,120 --> 01:25:33,240 Speaker 9: that are starting to see a slow pick up the 1885 01:25:33,320 --> 01:25:36,240 Speaker 9: primary sector are you seeing some more jobs coming through 1886 01:25:36,479 --> 01:25:39,720 Speaker 9: in the likes of finance, health education, But other big 1887 01:25:39,920 --> 01:25:44,559 Speaker 9: job losses, like in construction and manufacturing, professional professional services, 1888 01:25:44,840 --> 01:25:47,120 Speaker 9: none of those picking up at any time soon. And 1889 01:25:47,280 --> 01:25:48,800 Speaker 9: I think that's the challenge, is that some of those 1890 01:25:48,880 --> 01:25:50,840 Speaker 9: big areas that normally do take on a lot of 1891 01:25:50,960 --> 01:25:53,960 Speaker 9: jobs just no real new opportunities starting to show through. 1892 01:25:54,040 --> 01:25:55,759 Speaker 9: So tough out there still for many. 1893 01:25:55,720 --> 01:25:58,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, totally. I mean construction we obviously expected to pick 1894 01:25:58,400 --> 01:26:01,400 Speaker 3: up again, but manufacturing do you ever expected to pick up? 1895 01:26:01,640 --> 01:26:04,320 Speaker 3: Or have we kind of have we got to the 1896 01:26:04,360 --> 01:26:06,559 Speaker 3: point now where most of the stuff that we've lost 1897 01:26:06,600 --> 01:26:07,599 Speaker 3: will never be replaced. 1898 01:26:09,200 --> 01:26:11,840 Speaker 9: Look, I think in some areas businesses will of course 1899 01:26:11,920 --> 01:26:15,599 Speaker 9: have been looking at, you know, buying capital, plant and equipment, 1900 01:26:15,720 --> 01:26:17,880 Speaker 9: machinery to try and do some of those roles into 1901 01:26:17,880 --> 01:26:21,559 Speaker 9: the future, so potentially there's not quite as much upturn. 1902 01:26:21,800 --> 01:26:23,600 Speaker 9: But also in some of those more niche sort of 1903 01:26:23,720 --> 01:26:26,680 Speaker 9: advanced manufacturing areas, yes, I think New Zealand's got some 1904 01:26:26,760 --> 01:26:29,479 Speaker 9: opportunity there. It's actually probably the other way around. I mean, 1905 01:26:29,680 --> 01:26:32,440 Speaker 9: likes of construction. I'm not sure if those numbers necessarily 1906 01:26:32,560 --> 01:26:35,160 Speaker 9: pick up all that heavily. Yes, the government's doing more 1907 01:26:35,200 --> 01:26:38,000 Speaker 9: infrastructure investment and similar but we're not about to crash 1908 01:26:38,080 --> 01:26:40,200 Speaker 9: interest rates down to a level that would stimulate the 1909 01:26:40,280 --> 01:26:43,160 Speaker 9: highest building since the nineteen seventies. That's where we were 1910 01:26:43,200 --> 01:26:45,160 Speaker 9: a couple of years ago. That's why we've had such 1911 01:26:45,200 --> 01:26:47,840 Speaker 9: a job loss because we added so many before. Long 1912 01:26:47,880 --> 01:26:50,160 Speaker 9: story short, we're just trying to find that Goldilock zone 1913 01:26:50,200 --> 01:26:51,680 Speaker 9: for the economy at the moment, and that is a 1914 01:26:51,880 --> 01:26:54,320 Speaker 9: very very tough process when you're seeing these numbers of 1915 01:26:54,400 --> 01:26:55,519 Speaker 9: job losses coming through. 1916 01:26:55,640 --> 01:26:57,680 Speaker 3: Fair enough, now, Brad, did I see you on the 1917 01:26:57,760 --> 01:26:59,000 Speaker 3: news as being in China? 1918 01:27:00,520 --> 01:27:02,200 Speaker 9: Indeed, indeed, I am. 1919 01:27:02,640 --> 01:27:04,800 Speaker 3: Is this a holiday? I mean, what am I asking? 1920 01:27:04,840 --> 01:27:04,880 Speaker 8: You? 1921 01:27:04,960 --> 01:27:07,200 Speaker 3: Never take a holiday? So what work related thing are 1922 01:27:07,240 --> 01:27:08,080 Speaker 3: you doing in China? 1923 01:27:09,160 --> 01:27:11,200 Speaker 9: It's a holiday of sorts hither. I mean, I'm just 1924 01:27:11,280 --> 01:27:13,840 Speaker 9: sort of here trying to see what the economy's doing it. 1925 01:27:13,920 --> 01:27:16,120 Speaker 9: Of course, China is our largest trading partner and there's 1926 01:27:16,560 --> 01:27:18,400 Speaker 9: some pretty big opportunities. So having a bit of a 1927 01:27:18,439 --> 01:27:21,320 Speaker 9: look around anything from you know, what's happening with consumer 1928 01:27:21,400 --> 01:27:23,240 Speaker 9: trends and the fact that there's just so many new 1929 01:27:23,320 --> 01:27:25,720 Speaker 9: products all of a sudden, you know, coming out sort 1930 01:27:25,720 --> 01:27:28,640 Speaker 9: of every second week, lots of new drinks and beverages, 1931 01:27:28,920 --> 01:27:31,840 Speaker 9: cheesy options and similar emerging. I mean, we talk a 1932 01:27:31,920 --> 01:27:33,920 Speaker 9: lot about butter and New Zealand at the moment, but 1933 01:27:34,360 --> 01:27:36,800 Speaker 9: over in China they're paying a lot more for what 1934 01:27:36,880 --> 01:27:38,920 Speaker 9: we're sending over, So it's good to see a healthy 1935 01:27:39,000 --> 01:27:40,120 Speaker 9: export market occurring. 1936 01:27:40,160 --> 01:27:42,240 Speaker 3: To what's the coolest thing you see? What's the coolest 1937 01:27:42,280 --> 01:27:43,120 Speaker 3: new product you've seen? 1938 01:27:44,960 --> 01:27:46,920 Speaker 9: Oh, I'm trying to. I mean there have been some 1939 01:27:47,360 --> 01:27:50,720 Speaker 9: recent collabs where you know your classic cheese slice, well 1940 01:27:50,720 --> 01:27:52,840 Speaker 9: now they've edited in a few extra flavors into them, 1941 01:27:53,360 --> 01:27:55,360 Speaker 9: you know, to sort of meet the market over here. 1942 01:27:55,439 --> 01:28:00,559 Speaker 9: I think there's something like spicy crayfish tomato, and there 1943 01:28:00,640 --> 01:28:04,000 Speaker 9: was one other I've forgotten. But it's neat because you're 1944 01:28:04,000 --> 01:28:06,160 Speaker 9: seeing sort of product innovation right in front of you. 1945 01:28:06,720 --> 01:28:09,320 Speaker 9: New Zealand we're sort of on the bleeding edge of 1946 01:28:09,720 --> 01:28:13,080 Speaker 9: taking those new opportunities, you know, figuring out what local 1947 01:28:13,240 --> 01:28:15,519 Speaker 9: customers want and then sort of churning them out or 1948 01:28:15,600 --> 01:28:18,240 Speaker 9: working with partners to put out the good stuff. It's 1949 01:28:18,320 --> 01:28:20,840 Speaker 9: been quite exciting just to see everything. I mean, everything 1950 01:28:20,920 --> 01:28:23,679 Speaker 9: moves so fast here. The tech and innovation is just hectic. 1951 01:28:24,040 --> 01:28:26,320 Speaker 3: Good stuff. Brad Hey thanks very much and save travels back. 1952 01:28:26,360 --> 01:28:29,559 Speaker 3: That's Brad Olson, Infametric's principal economist. It's nineteen away from seven. 1953 01:28:29,600 --> 01:28:32,320 Speaker 4: So ever, dup to see Allen Chris. 1954 01:28:32,320 --> 01:28:35,760 Speaker 3: From Raleigh, New Zealand reckons they weren't booing the Prime 1955 01:28:35,800 --> 01:28:38,719 Speaker 3: Minister at the Netball but they were in fact booing 1956 01:28:38,840 --> 01:28:40,960 Speaker 3: Jenny Wiley because they're not happy about the changes that 1957 01:28:41,040 --> 01:28:44,040 Speaker 3: Jenny Wyley is making to netball, which is look, it's applausible. 1958 01:28:44,120 --> 01:28:47,920 Speaker 3: It's applausible theory. It's possible he did, however, I mean 1959 01:28:48,000 --> 01:28:50,439 Speaker 3: he obviously felt it was him though, because he owned 1960 01:28:50,439 --> 01:28:52,960 Speaker 3: it today in the press conference. But she's a tough 1961 01:28:53,000 --> 01:28:56,040 Speaker 3: if he was standing there getting booed for someone else's mistakes, now, 1962 01:28:56,640 --> 01:28:59,519 Speaker 3: just send it. I did give you some trigger warning earlier, okay. 1963 01:29:00,080 --> 01:29:02,400 Speaker 3: So I am a little bit surprised by these numbers. 1964 01:29:02,960 --> 01:29:05,800 Speaker 3: It turns out that most people think that just Cinda 1965 01:29:05,880 --> 01:29:10,559 Speaker 3: actually did a really good job during COVID. Talbot Mills 1966 01:29:11,000 --> 01:29:13,559 Speaker 3: has put out some polling today and where they ask 1967 01:29:13,600 --> 01:29:15,840 Speaker 3: people how would you rate her leadership during COVID? And 1968 01:29:16,400 --> 01:29:18,840 Speaker 3: these are the results and this is a credible study, right, 1969 01:29:18,840 --> 01:29:21,639 Speaker 3: So don't come back and be like not enough people. Whatever, 1970 01:29:21,840 --> 01:29:25,040 Speaker 3: it's fine. It's Talbot Mills, you can believe it. The 1971 01:29:25,160 --> 01:29:27,559 Speaker 3: number of people the proportion of people who rated her 1972 01:29:27,640 --> 01:29:31,439 Speaker 3: leadership is good is twenty five percent. The proportion and 1973 01:29:32,160 --> 01:29:34,519 Speaker 3: proportion of people who rated her leadership is very good 1974 01:29:35,160 --> 01:29:38,320 Speaker 3: it's thirty eight percent. You add those two together, very 1975 01:29:38,360 --> 01:29:41,519 Speaker 3: good and good, that's sixty three percent of us. Sixty 1976 01:29:41,640 --> 01:29:44,320 Speaker 3: three percent of us think that Cinda did a good 1977 01:29:44,439 --> 01:29:48,240 Speaker 3: or very good job during COVID. Sixteen percent are unsure. 1978 01:29:48,800 --> 01:29:51,080 Speaker 3: They must be new migrants because everybody else has got 1979 01:29:51,120 --> 01:29:57,479 Speaker 3: an opinion. Seven percent thought poor and fifteen percent thought 1980 01:29:58,240 --> 01:30:01,080 Speaker 3: very poor, which means that people who thought it was 1981 01:30:01,120 --> 01:30:03,599 Speaker 3: poor or very poor was only twenty three percent. Now 1982 01:30:04,280 --> 01:30:06,120 Speaker 3: does that shock you as much as it shocks me. 1983 01:30:06,400 --> 01:30:08,479 Speaker 3: It shocks me because if this was taken in the 1984 01:30:08,600 --> 01:30:11,639 Speaker 3: height of COVID, I would be like, yeah, that makes yeah. 1985 01:30:11,720 --> 01:30:14,720 Speaker 3: I can see that there was a minority of us 1986 01:30:15,240 --> 01:30:18,120 Speaker 3: who were mainly living in Auckland and thinking the whole 1987 01:30:18,160 --> 01:30:21,360 Speaker 3: thing was a shambles, and the majority of people were 1988 01:30:21,400 --> 01:30:23,720 Speaker 3: afraid of COVID, living in fear, happy with it. But 1989 01:30:23,920 --> 01:30:27,200 Speaker 3: you know, it's five years on, four years on, we've 1990 01:30:27,240 --> 01:30:30,000 Speaker 3: all had the rona. It hasn't been that bad. We're 1991 01:30:30,040 --> 01:30:32,960 Speaker 3: all seeing how the country's completely stuffed as a result. 1992 01:30:33,000 --> 01:30:36,680 Speaker 3: It surprises me. It surprises me that nearly two in 1993 01:30:36,800 --> 01:30:38,679 Speaker 3: every three of us still think it was an awesome 1994 01:30:38,800 --> 01:30:41,240 Speaker 3: job done by just Cinda. But anyway, there you go, 1995 01:30:41,479 --> 01:30:43,960 Speaker 3: So you know, maybe don't go to a barbecue and 1996 01:30:44,120 --> 01:30:46,160 Speaker 3: just pipe up about how just Cinda handled it, because 1997 01:30:46,240 --> 01:30:49,160 Speaker 3: chances are that if there's three of you standing there, 1998 01:30:49,160 --> 01:30:50,360 Speaker 3: you're going to be the only one who thinks it 1999 01:30:50,400 --> 01:30:52,560 Speaker 3: was a bad job. Now, can I just refer you 2000 01:30:52,720 --> 01:30:54,640 Speaker 3: to what happened over the weekend, which I think may 2001 01:30:54,720 --> 01:30:57,080 Speaker 3: well may in fact be the biggest boss move of 2002 01:30:57,200 --> 01:31:01,439 Speaker 3: the weekend. Astronomer is the company who had the couple, 2003 01:31:01,520 --> 01:31:05,000 Speaker 3: the CEO and the HR chief. It was them who 2004 01:31:05,040 --> 01:31:08,280 Speaker 3: were busted at the cold Play. They worked for Astronomer. 2005 01:31:08,600 --> 01:31:14,519 Speaker 3: Astronomer now has hired a special celebrity spokesperson to speak 2006 01:31:14,600 --> 01:31:17,560 Speaker 3: on their behalf. Who did they hire? They hired the 2007 01:31:17,640 --> 01:31:20,920 Speaker 3: ex wife of the cold Play lead singer, Gwyneth Paltrow. 2008 01:31:21,479 --> 01:31:25,240 Speaker 25: Hi, I'm Gwyneth Paltrow. I've been hired on a very 2009 01:31:25,360 --> 01:31:27,920 Speaker 25: temporary basis to speak on behalf of the three hundred 2010 01:31:27,960 --> 01:31:31,640 Speaker 25: plus employees at Astronomer. Astronomer has gotten a lot of 2011 01:31:31,760 --> 01:31:34,800 Speaker 25: questions over the last few days, and they wanted me 2012 01:31:34,880 --> 01:31:36,360 Speaker 25: to answer the last common ones. 2013 01:31:36,520 --> 01:31:38,479 Speaker 3: Now you do get this, You do get what a 2014 01:31:38,520 --> 01:31:40,720 Speaker 3: boss move. This is right because there are now two 2015 01:31:40,800 --> 01:31:43,960 Speaker 3: couples who have ex wives. His ex wife and the 2016 01:31:44,040 --> 01:31:46,280 Speaker 3: one he was bonking. She's now an ex wife because 2017 01:31:46,280 --> 01:31:48,200 Speaker 3: their marriages have split up. And why did they split up? 2018 01:31:48,200 --> 01:31:50,439 Speaker 3: Because they were at a Coldplay concert, So they got 2019 01:31:50,600 --> 01:31:53,320 Speaker 3: Coldplay's ex wife. That's clever, right, Like that is very 2020 01:31:53,400 --> 01:31:55,400 Speaker 3: clever anyway, you know how she said that she was 2021 01:31:55,439 --> 01:31:58,040 Speaker 3: going to answer all the questions.

By the way, I might have 2035 01:32:35,840 --> 01:32:37,439 Speaker 3: got the email of the evening. I'm going to read 2036 01:32:37,439 --> 01:32:40,400 Speaker 3: it to you shortly, Gavin Gray, UK correspondents with US 2037 01:32:40,439 --> 01:32:41,440 Speaker 3: Now even in Gavin. 2038 01:32:42,160 --> 01:32:42,880 Speaker 4: Hi there, Eah. 2039 01:32:43,040 --> 01:32:45,040 Speaker 3: Now does it look to you like the EU deal 2040 01:32:45,120 --> 01:32:46,800 Speaker 3: with the US is not that great for the EU? 2041 01:32:48,120 --> 01:32:48,320 Speaker 1: Yeah? 2042 01:32:48,439 --> 01:32:51,400 Speaker 22: And I think the media and analysts are suggesting as 2043 01:32:51,479 --> 01:32:54,560 Speaker 22: much this morning. Of course, we still really don't have 2044 01:32:54,720 --> 01:32:57,200 Speaker 22: much in the way of detail, but the European Union 2045 01:32:57,479 --> 01:33:00,760 Speaker 22: and America heralding as a big and it is a 2046 01:33:00,800 --> 01:33:05,080 Speaker 22: big deal because it's roughly one in three goods and 2047 01:33:05,200 --> 01:33:10,040 Speaker 22: services around the world, So the US EU trade is 2048 01:33:10,200 --> 01:33:13,920 Speaker 22: a massive, massive factor around the world. But we now know, 2049 01:33:14,040 --> 01:33:18,240 Speaker 22: of course that the EU will still end up paying tariffs. Well, 2050 01:33:18,400 --> 01:33:21,400 Speaker 22: looks like everyone is going to fifteen percent, so that's 2051 01:33:21,479 --> 01:33:23,640 Speaker 22: half the thirty percent that they were being threatened with, 2052 01:33:24,080 --> 01:33:27,200 Speaker 22: but more than the UK's ten percent. And the deal 2053 01:33:27,320 --> 01:33:33,840 Speaker 22: will add roughly ninety billion US dollars revenue for American 2054 01:33:33,960 --> 01:33:36,679 Speaker 22: government coffers. I mean, that's a huge sum of money. 2055 01:33:37,560 --> 01:33:41,120 Speaker 22: And the EU also buying US energy products and also 2056 01:33:41,360 --> 01:33:43,599 Speaker 22: a defense worth hundreds of billions of dollars. 2057 01:33:44,000 --> 01:33:44,800 Speaker 7: And indeed JD. 2058 01:33:45,000 --> 01:33:48,040 Speaker 22: Vans has said that he reckons that the headlines around 2059 01:33:48,040 --> 01:33:51,439 Speaker 22: the world will be Donald Trump only got ninety nine 2060 01:33:51,520 --> 01:33:53,800 Speaker 22: point nine percent of what he asked for. What did 2061 01:33:53,880 --> 01:33:56,559 Speaker 22: Europe get back in return? Well, I think they are 2062 01:33:56,680 --> 01:33:59,439 Speaker 22: kind of playing the longer game. The European economy is 2063 01:33:59,479 --> 01:34:02,000 Speaker 22: sluggish at the moment, so they didn't want to upset 2064 01:34:02,080 --> 01:34:06,000 Speaker 22: that they need America's help for defense and now recognize that. 2065 01:34:06,360 --> 01:34:09,200 Speaker 22: And despite the tough words from Emmanuel mac gran saying 2066 01:34:09,520 --> 01:34:11,719 Speaker 22: that it should be a level playing field and Europe 2067 01:34:11,720 --> 01:34:14,720 Speaker 22: should then impose tariffs on America, it just looks like 2068 01:34:14,840 --> 01:34:17,040 Speaker 22: they thought, do you know what will swallow this pill? 2069 01:34:17,360 --> 01:34:22,919 Speaker 22: It'll make exports imports from America more expensive and therefore 2070 01:34:23,040 --> 01:34:27,120 Speaker 22: I dissuade people from buying American and overall decided this 2071 01:34:27,320 --> 01:34:30,160 Speaker 22: was something that they would have to do and will do. 2072 01:34:30,400 --> 01:34:32,000 Speaker 16: But they're painting it as a success. 2073 01:34:32,520 --> 01:34:34,799 Speaker 3: How long do you think that the UK is prepared 2074 01:34:34,800 --> 01:34:36,960 Speaker 3: to drop eight into Gaza because this is not a 2075 01:34:37,040 --> 01:34:38,040 Speaker 3: short term effect, is it? 2076 01:34:38,960 --> 01:34:42,000 Speaker 22: No, it isn't And at the moment so far, the 2077 01:34:42,200 --> 01:34:46,680 Speaker 22: planes that have been on route via Jordan and Ua 2078 01:34:47,160 --> 01:34:51,000 Speaker 22: have not involved the IREF and have not been UK 2079 01:34:51,280 --> 01:34:56,240 Speaker 22: food or UK provided supplies, but the British Prime Minister 2080 01:34:56,360 --> 01:35:00,679 Speaker 22: says they are working with Jordan now to get British 2081 01:35:00,720 --> 01:35:05,200 Speaker 22: planes and indeed British supplies in the air and into Gaza. 2082 01:35:05,720 --> 01:35:09,000 Speaker 22: It comes at a very very interesting time with Israel 2083 01:35:09,080 --> 01:35:13,719 Speaker 22: now saying they'll do these tactical ceasefires are tactical peace 2084 01:35:13,800 --> 01:35:17,280 Speaker 22: times in order to get the AID in. There's huge 2085 01:35:17,320 --> 01:35:20,479 Speaker 22: pressure on Sekires Starmer France is to become the first 2086 01:35:20,560 --> 01:35:24,840 Speaker 22: G seven nation to recognize a Palestinian state. A large 2087 01:35:25,000 --> 01:35:29,320 Speaker 22: number of MP's, even from Secure Starmer's own party of government, 2088 01:35:29,600 --> 01:35:33,639 Speaker 22: are demanding that he recognized Palestine as an independent state 2089 01:35:34,360 --> 01:35:37,679 Speaker 22: and now here Sekires Starmer is today with a two 2090 01:35:37,800 --> 01:35:41,519 Speaker 22: hour meeting set aside to speak to Donald Trump. Yes, 2091 01:35:41,720 --> 01:35:44,559 Speaker 22: it will be about aid and it will be rather 2092 01:35:44,720 --> 01:35:47,719 Speaker 22: about trade. That's what Donald Trump wants to talk about 2093 01:35:48,040 --> 01:35:50,360 Speaker 22: to flesh out a few of the little issues that 2094 01:35:50,479 --> 01:35:52,880 Speaker 22: remain following the announcement of a trade deal between the 2095 01:35:53,000 --> 01:35:57,360 Speaker 22: UK and the US. But also Sekires Starmer definitely promising 2096 01:35:57,520 --> 01:36:00,240 Speaker 22: to mention the situation in Gaza it's. 2097 01:36:00,160 --> 01:36:01,439 Speaker 3: Good to talk to you.

So I rocked up and I ordered my 2127 01:37:17,280 --> 01:37:19,400 Speaker 3: light meal and I sat down at a table. There 2128 01:37:19,479 --> 01:37:21,600 Speaker 3: was only one local in the bar, and there was 2129 01:37:21,680 --> 01:37:24,920 Speaker 3: a gnarly bar maid. She'd seen it all. She asked 2130 01:37:24,960 --> 01:37:27,120 Speaker 3: the local to put some firewood into the pot belly 2131 01:37:27,160 --> 01:37:30,599 Speaker 3: stove and he complained a lot, muttering something sexual about 2132 01:37:30,640 --> 01:37:33,040 Speaker 3: fitting big things into small holes, et cetera. And she 2133 01:37:33,280 --> 01:37:36,800 Speaker 3: just said, Harry, that's you all over, all bang and 2134 01:37:36,920 --> 01:37:39,800 Speaker 3: no bloody bullet. And it was said dryly, not even 2135 01:37:39,840 --> 01:37:42,519 Speaker 3: a smirk on her face. I'm reminded of this with 2136 01:37:42,640 --> 01:37:45,320 Speaker 3: Nikola Willis, she is all bang and no bloody bullet. 2137 01:37:45,640 --> 01:37:49,360 Speaker 3: I am increasingly becoming dissolution. With Nicola, she shrieks statements 2138 01:37:49,439 --> 01:37:52,439 Speaker 3: but doesn't seem to deliver cheers, Fiona, do you know 2139 01:37:52,520 --> 01:37:55,320 Speaker 3: what you send me an awesomema like that? Because to 2140 01:37:55,360 --> 01:37:58,080 Speaker 3: be honest, Colin sent another one last week that was 2141 01:37:58,160 --> 01:38:00,880 Speaker 3: so good. I said to him email and I was 2142 01:38:00,960 --> 01:38:03,120 Speaker 3: an Email of the day Colin, but I didn't read 2143 01:38:03,120 --> 01:38:05,720 Speaker 3: it out to you, and that's a crime. Well, Fiona's 2144 01:38:05,720 --> 01:38:08,400 Speaker 3: I've learned email of the day, Fiona, and it goes 2145 01:38:08,439 --> 01:38:11,120 Speaker 3: on air. So you keep that kind of correspondence up. 2146 01:38:11,880 --> 01:38:13,960 Speaker 3: Well done you. We're not gonna waste you know what. 2147 01:38:14,000 --> 01:38:16,000 Speaker 3: There's a lot of effort that went into crafting something 2148 01:38:16,040 --> 01:38:18,120 Speaker 3: as good as that, and it's a crime that it 2149 01:38:18,200 --> 01:38:20,720 Speaker 3: just gets deleted or just disappears into the etho, just 2150 01:38:20,920 --> 01:38:24,280 Speaker 3: a whole bunch of ones and zeros. But now it's 2151 01:38:24,320 --> 01:38:25,759 Speaker 3: out there. Thank you for that, Fiona. 2152 01:38:25,760 --> 01:38:29,080 Speaker 24: All right, go on as ye never tear us apart 2153 01:38:29,200 --> 01:38:33,559 Speaker 24: by an excess voted by Australia or at least Triple 2154 01:38:33,640 --> 01:38:37,680 Speaker 24: J listeners in Australia as the greatest Australian song of 2155 01:38:37,800 --> 01:38:38,519 Speaker 24: all time. 2156 01:38:39,160 --> 01:38:42,519 Speaker 3: Because it's a bang up, isn't it. Listen to it. 2157 01:38:45,040 --> 01:38:46,000 Speaker 10: A weirdly. 2158 01:38:47,520 --> 01:38:50,240 Speaker 3: This is some good keyboards in the background, got a 2159 01:38:50,360 --> 01:38:54,679 Speaker 3: good steady like intentional drum beat and a sex god. 2160 01:38:54,520 --> 01:38:55,040 Speaker 10: At the front. 2161 01:38:55,439 --> 01:38:57,520 Speaker 24: And I think when they looked at the voting demographics, 2162 01:38:57,520 --> 01:38:59,479 Speaker 24: it was a lot of young people mostly who voted 2163 01:38:59,479 --> 01:39:02,280 Speaker 24: in this thing. So yeah, it's the songs from nineteen 2164 01:39:02,280 --> 01:39:04,000 Speaker 24: eighty eight. Pierona might have been listening to it in 2165 01:39:04,040 --> 01:39:07,360 Speaker 24: that pub, who knows, who knows, But yeah, so even 2166 01:39:07,400 --> 01:39:09,200 Speaker 24: the modern generations can still appreciate it. 2167 01:39:09,479 --> 01:39:11,160 Speaker 3: Now, what was number two and why did you skip it? 2168 01:39:11,520 --> 01:39:14,080 Speaker 24: Number two was the Nosebleed section by Hilltop Hoods, And 2169 01:39:14,520 --> 01:39:16,600 Speaker 24: as much as I like the song, I skipped it 2170 01:39:16,600 --> 01:39:18,000 Speaker 24: because there's way to medif words in it. 2171 01:39:18,240 --> 01:39:19,240 Speaker 10: When was that song put out? 2172 01:39:19,240 --> 01:39:21,080 Speaker 24: I've never heard of two thousand and three. That was 2173 01:39:21,120 --> 01:39:22,880 Speaker 24: their first big hit. That was the one that kind 2174 01:39:22,880 --> 01:39:25,439 Speaker 24: of broke them through. They've actually it's interesting because it 2175 01:39:25,520 --> 01:39:28,080 Speaker 24: got night in the Triple J Hot one hundred at 2176 01:39:28,120 --> 01:39:29,720 Speaker 24: the time, and they've had songs that have done better 2177 01:39:29,800 --> 01:39:32,160 Speaker 24: since then. That turns out in hindsight, people. 2178 01:39:31,960 --> 01:39:34,280 Speaker 3: Really like the first one better than ice House. 2179 01:39:35,360 --> 01:39:36,760 Speaker 24: I'm not a big chan of ice House either. 2180 01:39:36,800 --> 01:39:38,320 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, right, but then you're a big fan of 2181 01:39:38,360 --> 01:39:39,120 Speaker 2: really crap music. 2182 01:39:39,160 --> 01:39:41,160 Speaker 10: We have to say so.
