00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:36,720
Speaker 2: government is looking at using emergency powers to keep the

15
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:51,520
Speaker 2: to accelerate a four lane highway up to Fugade, which

16
00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:53,559
Speaker 2: would cut your journey time, you'd have to say by

17
00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:57,440
Speaker 2: a significant margin. Also this morning, the case for interest

18
00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:00,240
Speaker 2: rates to fall hard and fast, and the list at

Speaker 2: of its duty when a gunman attempted to kill former

00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:21,080
Speaker 2: President Donald Trump. It comes just a day after Cheatle

26
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:24,800
Speaker 2: was ripped into by lawmakers at the House Oversight Committee.

27
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:26,720
Speaker 2: I don't think she should resign. I think she should

28
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:30,200
Speaker 2: have been fired. Ma'am, you're a the horror story.

29

Speaker 5: Yes or no?

32
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,280
Speaker 1: If you want to be in charge, then answer the

33
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 1: question or step aside.

34
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:43,120
Speaker 2: Wow, she was in charge when a president was shot,

35
00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:45,560
Speaker 2: so you can kind of understand that. Joe Biden says

36
00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:49,160
Speaker 2: he is going to appoint a new director soon. Biden,

37
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:51,160

00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:02,559
Speaker 2: return today after recovering from COVID at his beach house

42
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:05,880
Speaker 2: in Delaware. Former Green MP Darling Tana has returned to

43
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 2: Parliament as an independent following investigation into her involvement with

44
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 2: her husband's business, which is accused of exploiting migrants. The

45
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:15,440
Speaker 2: Greens have pleaded for her to just bug her off,

46
00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:16,800
Speaker 2: but Tana remains defined.

47
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:19,640
Speaker 6: I'm here now in doing the mahy for as long

48
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:21,400
Speaker 6: as this place follow.

49
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:26,079
Speaker 3: Out get ahead of the headlines, Ryan Bridge You for

50
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:29,800
Speaker 3: twenty twenty four on early edition with Smith City, New

51
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:33,040
Speaker 3: Zealand's Furniture Beds and a player store News Talk zid be.

52
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:36,600
Speaker 2: Everybody's doing the mhy, aren't they, and getting the treats.

53
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 2: And it's the treats you need to you need to

54
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:43,080
Speaker 2: think about because why is she there? The answer lies

55
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:45,520
Speaker 2: in the liquidata's report which we found yesterday into her

56
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:49,919
Speaker 2: husband's business at bike shop. They are ird the taxman

57
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:53,799
Speaker 2: and creditors four hundred thousand dollars cash on hand from

58
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:57,720
Speaker 2: the liquidata's report one hundred and eighty eight dollars. So

59
00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:00,440
Speaker 2: she's not there because she's a martyr for the people

60
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:03,800
Speaker 2: or any great public service need. This is about money,

61
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:05,760
Speaker 2: isn't it? Follow the money trail she's on about one

62
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:09,800
Speaker 2: hundred and seventy k year. When you've got your husband's

63
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:13,680
Speaker 2: businesses is basically up up the creek. What do you

64
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 2: do while you sit in the library. Apparently she set

65
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:19,160
Speaker 2: up her an office in the library at Doment. You

66
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:21,120
Speaker 2: sit in the library and you get the salary, don't you.

67
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:25,280
Speaker 2: It's just gone nine after five Bridge. Also this morning,

68
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:27,760
Speaker 2: Genesis Energy, they're in a bit of a spot of

69
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:31,880
Speaker 2: bother over gas prices. So there's an interesting report from

70
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 2: Business Desk. It says that government officials are talking about

71
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 2: emergency powers to make sure that gas is supplied to

72
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:42,720
Speaker 2: critical users. This is quite major stuff. There's a bill

73
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:44,400
Speaker 2: that was passed in two thousand and eight that gives

74
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 2: the government the power to make sure that critical users

75
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,880
Speaker 2: get the gas that they need. Forsythe Bar has downgraded

76
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:55,040
Speaker 2: its rating on Genesis Energy because of its uncertain gas outlook.

77
00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 2: Demand is our exceeding supply as sorry, is exceeding supply,

78
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 2: and there's no solution insight. That's according to forsythe Bar

79
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 2: spot gas prices are at record levels. They're trading above

80
00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:10,520
Speaker 2: thirty eight dollars thirty eight dollars gigajuels. That's four hundred

81
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 2: percent more than a year ago, four hundred percent. And

82
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:17,719
Speaker 2: let's not forget that Genesis announced in May, remember we

83
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,799
Speaker 2: spoke about this last week, that it's burning through half

84
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:25,080
Speaker 2: a million tons of imported coal right now this winter,

85
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:28,000
Speaker 2: and when this winter is over, they will order three

86
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:32,320
Speaker 2: hundred and fifty thousand more tons of coal from overseas

87
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:35,080
Speaker 2: just to keep the lights on. Great news, Let's burn

88
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:38,240
Speaker 2: the coal, let's demonize the gas. Excellent, just go on.

89
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:40,479
Speaker 2: Ten minutes after five. Coming up next, we're going to

90
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:43,799
Speaker 2: talk about that secret service agent boss a little bit more.

91
00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:47,839
Speaker 2: Also later in the show, the New Zealand Collective of

92
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:51,320
Speaker 2: Abused in State Care Charitable Trust. This report is out today.

93
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:54,479
Speaker 2: Apparently it's three thousand pages long and fourteen kilograms. That

94
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:56,600
Speaker 2: will be a big talking point today, so we'll keep

95
00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:58,240
Speaker 2: you up to date with that right now. It is

96
00:04:58,279 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 2: eleven after five.

97
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:05,040
Speaker 3: News and Views You Trust has done. Your day is

98
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:09,279
Speaker 3: early edition with Ryan Bridge and Smith City, New Zealand's furniture,

99
00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:10,559
Speaker 3: beds and a playing store.

100
00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 2: News Talk said be thirteen after five on news Talk

101
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 2: said b there is a case being made for interest

102
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:18,839
Speaker 2: rates to fall hard and fast. We'll talk about that

103
00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:20,720
Speaker 2: in a second. That's from the Economist Ed mc knight

104
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:23,279
Speaker 2: and the Herald. Right now, though, we could be missing

105
00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:26,080
Speaker 2: out on two hundred and fifty million dollars a year

106
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:29,679
Speaker 2: due to payWave and online credit card fees. That's according

107
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:31,920
Speaker 2: to the ComCom the Commerce Commission, who say that there

108
00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:36,560
Speaker 2: needs to be more regulation to stop retailers unnecessarily overcharging

109
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:39,760
Speaker 2: their customers. They are consulting on the changes that they

110
00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:42,440
Speaker 2: want to make. They've also set a goal to see

111
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 2: SURD charges for contact lists or online payments fall between

112
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:48,960
Speaker 2: one and a half and two percent. Caroen Young is

113
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:51,320
Speaker 2: from retail end Z and she's with me this morning. Carolyn,

114
00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:54,200
Speaker 2: good morning. What do you think of what do you

115
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:57,120
Speaker 2: think is a reasonable fee to charge?

116
00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:00,200
Speaker 5: Look, I think it's an early days to recare what

117
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:02,560
Speaker 5: would be a reasonable fee to charge with what we

118
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:05,120
Speaker 5: do now is as pretty complicated system, and there's a

119
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:08,440
Speaker 5: lot of players with their hands in the till while

120
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:11,120
Speaker 5: we're working through the process and when we want it

121
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:15,000
Speaker 5: to be much more simpler, more straightforward, easy for retailers

122
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:19,360
Speaker 5: and consumers to follow, something that's open and transparent so

123
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:24,200
Speaker 5: that everyone understands how it looks and what's reasonable to pay.

124
00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 2: So do the shop owners get charged? Do they all

125
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:31,240
Speaker 2: get charged a different amount from that merchant service fee

126
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:34,280
Speaker 2: that they pay or is that a uniform fee across everyone?

127
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:41,800
Speaker 5: There are lots of differencies within the payment gateways that

128
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:45,719
Speaker 5: you pay, depending on the type of card, the banks

129
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:50,960
Speaker 5: you're with, the terminal provider, the card transaction that goes through.

130
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:52,960
Speaker 5: You know, there's lots of different ways in which that

131
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:56,000
Speaker 5: comes through, and what we're one of the one of

132
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 5: the things we're looking for is to make sure that

133
00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:02,720
Speaker 5: it's all streamlined so that everybody's bank statement clearly states

134
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:06,559
Speaker 5: what their total SEE is at the end of each month.

135
00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:09,800
Speaker 2: Are we getting ripped off? Is the ComCom right?

136
00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 5: There's probably an element of the fees that could certainly

137
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:21,440
Speaker 5: be trims, that's for sure, and that sits with the

138
00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:27,520
Speaker 5: financial services system within that space, and that's passed on

139
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:30,160
Speaker 5: to retailers and often passed on to consenters.

140
00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,720
Speaker 2: So you're saying it's not the retailers are who are

141
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:37,000
Speaker 2: adding a bit of fat in there. It's the visas

142
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:38,160
Speaker 2: and the master cards.

143
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:43,120
Speaker 5: Well, there are times when some of the fees that

144
00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:47,200
Speaker 5: are passed on to consumers are probably not as accurately

145
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:50,559
Speaker 5: reflected as they could be. And part of that, from

146
00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:54,200
Speaker 5: the conversations we've had with people, is through lack of

147
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 5: knowledge through a really complicated system. So we want system

148
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:01,120
Speaker 5: to be a lot more pall and straightforward so that

149
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:05,280
Speaker 5: everyone can follow it and that all of the players

150
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:08,240
Speaker 5: in that space. There's always bad actors that operate in

151
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 5: spaces that they are providing good advice to businesses, you know,

152
00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:19,160
Speaker 5: both retailers and hospitality businesses, and we're working alongside hospitality

153
00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:22,360
Speaker 5: to jointly go out to our members and come back.

154
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:25,200
Speaker 5: We're pretty aligned on where we see things and we

155
00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:26,960
Speaker 5: want to see improvements across the board.

156
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:28,680
Speaker 2: All right, Carolyn, thanks so much of your time. It's

157
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:32,920
Speaker 2: Carolyn Young from Retailing Z sixteen after five and not

158
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:35,680
Speaker 2: every day you get Retailing ZED saying basically, yes, some

159
00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:42,120
Speaker 2: retailers probably are overcharging. Whether they know that overcharging or not. Well,

160
00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:45,160
Speaker 2: I guess that's up to interpretation, isn't it? Interesting article

161
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 2: from Ed McKnight, The Economist and the heralds Oh, sorry,

162
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:49,640
Speaker 2: I should say one roof dot co, dot and Z

163
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:52,880
Speaker 2: go and check it out. Fixed rates of five percent. Gosh,

164
00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:56,960
Speaker 2: that got my heart of flutter ah. Yes, please like

165
00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:00,880
Speaker 2: to go back to those days. And he's basically making

166
00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:03,480
Speaker 2: the case for interest rates to fall hard and fast,

167
00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:07,840
Speaker 2: as you know, inflation at three point three percent. Hopefully

168
00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:09,640
Speaker 2: we're going to hit our target by Christmas of one

169
00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:12,839
Speaker 2: to three percent. Wholesale interest rates are down. That is good.

170
00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,000
Speaker 2: A and Z westpack A whole bunch of others slashing

171
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:18,320
Speaker 2: the one year rates. That is good, A and Z

172
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:21,520
Speaker 2: predicting a one year rate of five point seven percent

173
00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:24,800
Speaker 2: by June twenty twenty five. That is good. But then

174
00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:29,959
Speaker 2: you've got non tradable inflation being sticky, still sticky according

175
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:32,800
Speaker 2: to the Reserve Bank. And also the Aussies. Remember they

176
00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:37,120
Speaker 2: cut their rates, inflation came back up and they had

177
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:39,800
Speaker 2: to put it back on again. And then you've got

178
00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:43,360
Speaker 2: Adrian or who it's a bit like waiting for Santa

179
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:46,520
Speaker 2: to give you your presents at Christmas. I feel that

180
00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:48,240
Speaker 2: that's the way I feel about Adrian all right now,

181
00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:51,120
Speaker 2: because it's just you're just paying, you know, an arm

182
00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:55,559
Speaker 2: and a leg to service your mortgage. He's probably gave

183
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:58,920
Speaker 2: us too many presents last Christmas, and he's probably going

184
00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,120
Speaker 2: to be a little stingy for a while longer yet,

185
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,760
Speaker 2: because he doesn't want to be the guy who didn't

186
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:08,520
Speaker 2: properly put the fire out that he kind of started. Anyway,

187
00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:10,880
Speaker 2: we'll look more into that later on the show. It's

188
00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:13,960
Speaker 2: just gone eighteen after five, coming up next four lane

189
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:17,280
Speaker 2: expressway and you believe it from Auckland all the way

190
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 2: to Fungaday.

191
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 3: But when ryan Bridge New for twenty twenty four on

192
00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:26,079
Speaker 3: early edition with Smith City, New Zealand's furniture beds and

193
00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:27,000
Speaker 3: a playing store.

194
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:30,160
Speaker 2: News Talk Zidby, Good morning, Welcome to early edition twenty

195
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:33,200
Speaker 2: after five. The government is accelerating work on a four

196
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:36,520
Speaker 2: lane expressway from Auckland all the way up to fung Ada.

197
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:39,960
Speaker 2: There's already the Poohoy to Welsford, beautiful stretch of road

198
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:42,520
Speaker 2: that is in place now. It's been classed as a

199
00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:45,200
Speaker 2: road of National Significance and is set to give better

200
00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:48,760
Speaker 2: and safer access to Northland which is regularly cut off

201
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:51,360
Speaker 2: at the brim Dowbins. Not cut off. You can go around,

202
00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:54,400
Speaker 2: but gosha AD's journey time, doesn't it. We're going to

203
00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:57,720
Speaker 2: go to Darren Fisher, now the chief executive of North Chamber.

204
00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:01,839
Speaker 2: Good morning Darren. You're obviously excited about this, but are

205
00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:04,880
Speaker 2: you skeptical about the date because we haven't got one yet, right.

206
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:09,520
Speaker 7: Yeah, good morning, right, Yeah, obviously very excited here at

207
00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:12,600
Speaker 7: Northend that you know, we've heard this, we've heard this

208
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:16,679
Speaker 7: before and getting getting a digger bucket in the ground

209
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:19,360
Speaker 7: is probably the second most important thing that's ever happened

210
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:20,640
Speaker 7: in North and i'd say.

211
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 2: Can you tell me what have they told you privately

212
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:26,800
Speaker 2: as the government told you privately any dates.

213
00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:31,520
Speaker 7: No, they haven't, and I think there's still some work

214
00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:34,960
Speaker 7: to go on there as far as consents and obtaining

215
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:38,760
Speaker 7: land and business cases go. But you as a as

216
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:41,559
Speaker 7: a community, we're here to make sure we accelerate that

217
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:42,480
Speaker 7: as quickly as we can.

218
00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:47,280
Speaker 2: N CTA did resilience work on the brindurwins. Do you

219
00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:48,920
Speaker 2: think there was? It's resilient.

220
00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:52,720
Speaker 7: Well, I think the events of the weekend show us

221
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:56,960
Speaker 7: that it's not. No, I think someone's relatively lucky that

222
00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,599
Speaker 7: they weren't killed in that extra slip that happened on

223
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:03,840
Speaker 7: the weekend. And it's still very fragile, and you know

224
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:07,439
Speaker 7: we're still susceptible to being cut off. So no, in

225
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:09,480
Speaker 7: the Papara Oakley Road, which is one of the diversion

226
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:13,040
Speaker 7: roads you mentioned, that was also not up to scratch either.

227
00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:15,040
Speaker 7: So you know, there's a lot of work to do

228
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:17,040
Speaker 7: to make sure that not only Northend but all of

229
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:18,480
Speaker 7: New Zealand benefits from this four.

230
00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:20,680
Speaker 2: Lane highlight because in the meantime, because let's be honest,

231
00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:24,040
Speaker 2: it's going to take at least a decade you would

232
00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:26,600
Speaker 2: say before anything, actually before we can actually drive on

233
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:28,600
Speaker 2: this thing. So in the meantime we're going to have

234
00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:31,560
Speaker 2: this brindeau and open closed, open clothes, open clothes.

235
00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:34,400
Speaker 7: Yeah, that's what I would expect to see.

236
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:34,600
Speaker 6: Rhyme.

237
00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:36,920
Speaker 7: I think that's a fair assessment. Absolutely.

238
00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:39,520
Speaker 2: Do you have any idea of the economic benefit to

239
00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:41,679
Speaker 2: the region if they were to fall laneo Fang a day.

240
00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:42,760
Speaker 2: Has anyone put a number on it?

241
00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:44,000
Speaker 8: Yeah?

242
00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:47,559
Speaker 7: The Northern Corporate Group, you know, very nicely put a

243
00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:51,400
Speaker 7: business case together that shows significant growth for the region.

244
00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:55,960
Speaker 7: But I think it's it's a great opportunity for our

245
00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:59,880
Speaker 7: population to grow. And I think people take this current

246
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:01,680
Speaker 7: business case and they say, oh, it's only two hundred

247
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 7: thousand people and it's a holiday highway. Well, you know,

248
00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:06,800
Speaker 7: that couldn't be further from the truth. North and it's

249
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:09,240
Speaker 7: a very strategic asset for all of New Zealand, and

250
00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:11,640
Speaker 7: I think our population will grow significantly on the back

251
00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 7: of having a good connection to Auckland and that's our

252
00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:17,360
Speaker 7: biggest economic zone of New Zealand, being Auckland and where

253
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:20,720
Speaker 7: it's neighbor so everyone can benefit from this road too.

254
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:22,720
Speaker 2: Right, Darren, thank you very much for your time. Darren Fisher,

255
00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:25,520
Speaker 2: the North Chamber Chief Executive with us this morning. Hope

256
00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:29,080
Speaker 2: you know fingers crossed that that road gets built as

257
00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:31,560
Speaker 2: soon as it possibly can. It's just gone twenty three

258
00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:33,520
Speaker 2: after five year old News Talk said, be coming up

259
00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:35,760
Speaker 2: next to the shambles that is Health New Zealand.

260
00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:41,839
Speaker 3: Separating the fact from the section ad Spurling edition with

261
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:45,480
Speaker 3: Smith City, New Zealand's Furniture Beds and applied store.

262
00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,280
Speaker 2: News Talk ZB twenty five after five news Talk said,

263
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:51,080
Speaker 2: be the press conference yesterday for Health New Zealand. Boy

264
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:54,760
Speaker 2: oh boy, what a doozy. So they've appointed Lester Levy

265
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:58,959
Speaker 2: as the commissioner. The CEO, Margie Arper was there alongside him.

266
00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:01,880
Speaker 2: She's been in the job two years. That's how long

267
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:05,600
Speaker 2: the organization's been set up for. And they're over spending

268
00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:07,360
Speaker 2: one hundred and thirty million dollars a month. We know

269
00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:10,319
Speaker 2: that that can be nothing more than mismanagement. If you

270
00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:13,160
Speaker 2: take Levy's word for it, he says they don't need

271
00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:16,040
Speaker 2: more money, They basically just don't know how to spend

272
00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:20,160
Speaker 2: efficiently within the organization as it stands. So I mean

273
00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:23,440
Speaker 2: that's mismanagement, short and simple. Start to finish and the

274
00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:26,080
Speaker 2: whole thing for me was a farce. They said, we

275
00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:28,400
Speaker 2: need to push into the regions. That's where the decision

276
00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:32,280
Speaker 2: making is made. What isn't it that what we said

277
00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:35,080
Speaker 2: we didn't need. We needed more centralization, we needed a

278
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:37,720
Speaker 2: national service. And now we're going out to the regions again,

279
00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:42,640
Speaker 2: apparently hiring four regionals. Oars. Why did we spend all

280
00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:45,880
Speaker 2: this money to set this organization up? It's so frustrating

281
00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:48,600
Speaker 2: to listen to. They also said, we're never going to

282
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:52,360
Speaker 2: achieve the proper transition from the DHBs to this new

283
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:57,000
Speaker 2: organization in two years. Are you serious? Imagine a private

284
00:14:57,080 --> 00:15:00,920
Speaker 2: business changing its operating model and two in saying oh,

285
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:03,240
Speaker 2: the change hasn't worked, but it's still early days. It

286
00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:06,200
Speaker 2: just wouldn't happen. And then there was this Levy who

287
00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:09,000
Speaker 2: sits on a whole bunch of boards and knows what

288
00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:13,080
Speaker 2: he's talking about. Casually said that their spending controls and

289
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:15,600
Speaker 2: checks and balances are not up to scratch.

290
00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:18,600
Speaker 3: Internal and management controls are much weaker than I would

291
00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:22,560
Speaker 3: have expected. So we have spending problems all over the show.

292
00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:26,760
Speaker 2: What an absolute cluster. I hate to be negative, I

293
00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:28,800
Speaker 2: really do. I know it's early in the morning. I

294
00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:31,120
Speaker 2: hate to be negative, but I just lost all the

295
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:35,400
Speaker 2: will to live yesterday. Just as simple we request from me,

296
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:38,320
Speaker 2: let's make sure that when we appoint boards and executives

297
00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:40,440
Speaker 2: that they actually know what they're doing. They can read

298
00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:43,680
Speaker 2: a spreadsheet. Good luck, Lester, I think you'll need it.

299
00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:48,000
Speaker 2: Bryan Bridge, twenty seven after five. Anyway, let's move on

300
00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:52,960
Speaker 2: to some good news. It's not actually it's terrible. Sunday

301
00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:55,680
Speaker 2: was the hottest day in recorded history. Scene n's just

302
00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:58,560
Speaker 2: put a story out. Leo has just handed me the story,

303
00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:03,200
Speaker 2: our producer to preliminary data from a climate tracking agency

304
00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:08,200
Speaker 2: monitoring temperatures. So since the mid nineteen hundreds, it's the

305
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:13,280
Speaker 2: second consecutive year average global temperatures have crashed through shocking

306
00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:16,440
Speaker 2: climate records and will not be the last, as planet

307
00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:20,880
Speaker 2: warming fossil fuel pollution drives temperatures to shocking new highs.

308
00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:24,480
Speaker 2: Do you know what, I'm not shocked, and I don't

309
00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:29,400
Speaker 2: really care. I just think, oh, better for some bathing

310
00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:32,400

313
00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:39,240
Speaker 2: obviously we have got to do something about it. Blah

314
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:42,080

315
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:44,920
Speaker 2: so I actually have a reason not to care. I mean,

316
00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:47,680
Speaker 2: I'm not leaving the planet in any state for anyone

317

338
00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:22,200

00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:29,760
Speaker 2: former President Trump the assassination attempt on his life. I mean,

341
00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:32,080
Speaker 2: that's her job. She's the boss of the Secret Service.

342
00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:36,720
Speaker 2: A bullet managed to hit a nominee for president. You

343
00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:37,840
Speaker 2: have to resign, don't you.

344
00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:39,320
Speaker 7: She was.

345
00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:41,760
Speaker 2: It's a bad day at the office. What can you say?

346
00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:46,320
Speaker 2: So she's gone, and Biden's going to appoint a new one. Sharks.

347
00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:49,119
Speaker 2: You know, when you're swimming, what is worse than a

348
00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:53,120
Speaker 2: shark in the water. A shark on cocaine. I would

349
00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:55,760
Speaker 2: wager it's been found in sharks off the coast of

350
00:18:56,000 --> 00:19:00,080
Speaker 2: Rio de Janeiro at alarming rates, high levels in their

351
00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:03,280
Speaker 2: muscles and their liver one hundred times higher than in

352
00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:06,960
Speaker 2: other animals. And I know what you're thinking, how do

353
00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:13,399
Speaker 2: they snort it underwater? They don't. People. This is how

354
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:18,679
Speaker 2: it happens. The researchers reckon people use cocaine in Rio Degenio.

355
00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:21,000
Speaker 2: They do their number ones and their number two's and

356
00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:24,520
Speaker 2: the sewerage outflows hit the ocean and the sharks ingest

357
00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:27,879
Speaker 2: it that way, there you go. Just nothing more frightening

358
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:31,840
Speaker 2: than shark on cocaine. I suppose if the shark was

359
00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:34,800
Speaker 2: on marijuana and they got the munchies. You wouldn't want

360
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,520
Speaker 2: that either, would you. You probably don't want your sharks

361
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,760
Speaker 2: on anything. Actually, just gone twenty two minutes away from

362
00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:45,680

Speaker 4: formal warning into unconsented farm irrigation. Of course, he revealed

Speaker 4: councilor John sunk Now says he backs Scott and he's

388
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:04,240
Speaker 4: been intimately involved in conversations with the government around issues

389
00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:08,040
Speaker 4: including public transport and resilience. He says the council needs

Speaker 4: Scott's leadership and knowledge to continue those discussions for the

391
00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:14,800

392
00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:16,440
Speaker 4: else will have to start again.

393
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:18,399
Speaker 2: Clear weather today.

394
00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:21,080
Speaker 4: Nice here in christ Church, fine with light, wins are

395
00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:23,440
Speaker 4: higher fifteen with two overnight.

396
00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:26,320
Speaker 2: Beautiful, thank you, and we're going to max Tole and Wellington.

397
00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:28,800
Speaker 2: Now you've got an update on rates rises. Max.

398
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:33,439
Speaker 11: Yes, some unexpected swings for some this week, higher than

399
00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:36,320
Speaker 11: expected rates rises, lower than expected for some as well.

400
00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:39,359
Speaker 11: To be fair, the city Council's rate rise was voted

401
00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:42,560
Speaker 11: on as eighteen point five percent, the regional council nineteen

402
00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:46,359
Speaker 11: point eight percent. The overall figure is a combination of both,

403
00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:50,119
Speaker 11: but for some in the city it's going to equate

404
00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:52,720
Speaker 11: to more than twenty one percent. That's because there are

405
00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:55,879
Speaker 11: different ratings districts around the region getting their valuations at

406
00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:58,480
Speaker 11: different times. The cities was done at a round market

407
00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:01,439
Speaker 11: peak podlydof for instance, skinning a lower rates rise than

408
00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:03,680
Speaker 11: expected probably do are done near the market bottom, so

409
00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:06,840
Speaker 11: swings in roundabouts, says the City Council. The shoe could

410
00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:09,320
Speaker 11: be on the other foot in a few years regardless,

411
00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:10,800
Speaker 11: tough times for many.

412
00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:13,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, you would be pretty upset with that, wouldn't you. Max,

413
00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:15,640
Speaker 2: than we're there for today in the capitol.

414
00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:18,560

Speaker 12: Well, let's get excited because the finish line is in sight.

419
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:32,000
Speaker 13: Can you believe it? Auckland is Oh my goodness.

420

Speaker 13: I kid you not.

423
00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:41,879
Speaker 12: So all the heavy constructions finished, the tracks are installed,

424
00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:45,440
Speaker 12: you know, the overhead lines are in apparently you know

425
00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:47,639
Speaker 12: it's only taken what how many twenty years or so? No,

426
00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:51,200
Speaker 12: so now it's moving into this testing and commissioning phase.

427
00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:53,160
Speaker 12: I was having a bit of a chuckle with your

428
00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:57,320
Speaker 12: producer Leo because as I was walking through, he was like, oh, yeah,

429
00:22:57,320 --> 00:22:58,480
Speaker 12: I followed them on Facebook.

430
00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:01,159
Speaker 13: I'm with the I've joined the City Rail Link Facebook pa.

431
00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:03,240
Speaker 12: I mean, how old are you twenty two?

432
00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:05,080
Speaker 13: What are you doing following those guys?

433
00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:07,560
Speaker 12: But I was just telling him that we're thinking about

434
00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:10,520
Speaker 12: getting a group together in the newsroom to ride to

435
00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:11,240
Speaker 12: go to the subway.

436
00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:12,400
Speaker 13: We're going to pretend we're in New York.

437
00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:14,479
Speaker 2: It's open. Well, do you know what. I've actually been

438
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:17,000
Speaker 2: down there for a story. I did a couple I

439
00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:19,960
Speaker 2: don't know, a year ago or so. The testing phase

440
00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:21,960
Speaker 2: is actually going to take a long time, they said,

441
00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:24,919
Speaker 2: because they haven't used this type of equipment in New

442
00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:27,840
Speaker 2: Zealand before. So the testing phase I think could take

443
00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:29,680
Speaker 2: at least six months to a year.

444
00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:31,840

Speaker 2: Fourteen to six News talk to b Gevin Gray is

485
00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:25,159
Speaker 2: ow UK and Europe correspondence. A radical preacher has been

486
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:27,800
Speaker 2: found guilty under UK terra laws.

487
00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:31,800
Speaker 8: Gevin, Yeah, that's right, Ran. Now, the name and jam

488
00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:35,520
Speaker 8: Chowdry might not be well known to many people, but

489
00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:38,399
Speaker 8: it is well known in the UK, and that is

490
00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:42,439
Speaker 8: because he's a man who's continually gone very close, sailing

491
00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:44,960
Speaker 8: to the wind, very close when it comes to supporting

492
00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:49,680
Speaker 8: Islamic state and supporting Islamic terrorism. At least that's what

493
00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:54,360
Speaker 8: his opponents say. Today, he's been found guilty of directing

494
00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:58,040
Speaker 8: a group banned under UK terror laws and also encouraging

495
00:25:58,119 --> 00:26:02,280
Speaker 8: support for it online. The group is called al Mahahadji

496
00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:05,760
Speaker 8: Ruhn and it's said to be something that he founded

497
00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:09,440
Speaker 8: and now he faces life in prison for that. The

498
00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:13,720
Speaker 8: group is effectively someone that has been linked to all

499
00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:17,720
Speaker 8: sorts of different action here in the UK. Three attackers

500
00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:20,480
Speaker 8: that killed eight people at London Bridge in twenty seventeen

501
00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:22,720
Speaker 8: were led by a former member of the group. The

502
00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:25,600
Speaker 8: murder of five people at Westminster Bridge earlier that year

503
00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:28,640
Speaker 8: was by a man who'd spent years associating with the group,

504
00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:32,280
Speaker 8: and another member killed two people at London's Fishmongers Hall

505
00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:35,160
Speaker 8: back in twenty nineteen. So the police say this group

506
00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:38,119
Speaker 8: has a clear linked terrorist attacks, and they believe as

507
00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:40,360
Speaker 8: well and have now proven it in a court of law.

508
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:43,320
Speaker 8: And Jim Chowdry has a clear link and is a

509
00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:44,040
Speaker 8: member of.

510
00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:47,840
Speaker 2: It, all right, Kevin the very quickly. The Hungary has

511
00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:49,600
Speaker 2: kind of got itself on a spot of bothered with

512
00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:50,440
Speaker 2: the European Union.

513
00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:54,359
Speaker 8: Yeah, shrugging it off though so of course, the European

514
00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:58,920
Speaker 8: Union presidency is on a rotation among the members of

515
00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:02,600
Speaker 8: the EU. It's Hungary's turn, and Hungary has really led

516
00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:05,680
Speaker 8: the way in completely disagreeing with EU policy when it

517
00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:09,200
Speaker 8: comes to Ukraine and Russia. The Prime Minister Victor Auban

518
00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:13,000
Speaker 8: is currently holding that EU presidency and yet on an

519
00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:16,720
Speaker 8: unofficial meeting when to meet President Putin, and also has

520
00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:19,400
Speaker 8: in the past said that the EU kind of provoked

521
00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:22,879
Speaker 8: the war in Ukraine. Anyway, he's now been wrapped on

522
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:25,960
Speaker 8: the knuckles, but it's a very small rap. He was

523
00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:29,320
Speaker 8: due to host the EU Foreign and Defense ministers in

524
00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:32,359
Speaker 8: formal meetings which take place every six month. It was

525
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:35,520
Speaker 8: going to take place in Hungary. It's now not and

526
00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:39,280
Speaker 8: Hungry won't be holding the chair post either that's going

527
00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:41,679
Speaker 8: to be given to another country. It all sounds very

528
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:45,600
Speaker 8: small beer and indeed Hungry's described the move as completely childish,

529
00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:48,720
Speaker 8: but it certainly shows just how fed up the EU

530
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:51,960
Speaker 8: is with the Hungarian presidency so far.

531
00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:55,240
Speaker 2: Kevin, thank you for that. Kevin Gray, UK europe correspondent

532
00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:58,679
Speaker 2: with us this morning. It is eleven to six, Ryan Bridge,

533
00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:02,000
Speaker 2: Big day today. Royal Commission report into abuse in state

534
00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:05,600
Speaker 2: care is set to be released after a five year inquiry.

535
00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:08,240
Speaker 2: The Prime Minister says he's read about half of the

536
00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:10,280
Speaker 2: three thousand page report and it is due to given

537
00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:14,919
Speaker 2: apology to victims in November. Carl Tody is an abuse

538
00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:18,000
Speaker 2: and state care survivor also the founder of the Collective

539
00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:20,320
Speaker 2: of Abused in State Care Charitable Trust, and he's with

540
00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:23,360
Speaker 2: us this morning. Carl, good morning, Thank you for being

541
00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:26,359
Speaker 2: with me. What are you expecting today? Have you have

542
00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:27,960
Speaker 2: you had a look at the report yet? Have they've

543
00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:28,680
Speaker 2: given you a copy?

544
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:34,199
Speaker 6: No, they haven't ever managed to have a look at

545
00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:39,080
Speaker 6: before report. But I was privy to the final recommendations

546
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:41,320
Speaker 6: prior to the report being released. But first of all,

547
00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:44,880
Speaker 6: I just want to just acknowledge all my brothers and

548
00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:47,960
Speaker 6: sisters that have passed, you know, I liking it to

549
00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:50,880
Speaker 6: the antics where a lot of our a lot of

550
00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:54,040
Speaker 6: the soldiers were I've never forgotten. Where's a lot of

551
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:58,080
Speaker 6: our soldiers always have been forgotten? And I just want

552
00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:00,760
Speaker 6: to just pay homage to them, first and foremost. And

553
00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:03,320
Speaker 6: I also want to pay to a big shout out

554
00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:04,840
Speaker 6: to all the brothers and sisters that are making their

555
00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:09,120
Speaker 6: way down here to Wontington to attend the final report.

556
00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:13,320
Speaker 2: What are you hoping will come of the report? Because

557
00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:17,960
Speaker 2: it's not about compensation that the Royal Commission, it's about recommendations.

558
00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:21,040
Speaker 2: What do you what's what's the one thing you hope

559
00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:22,920
Speaker 2: changes or happens.

560
00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:26,640
Speaker 6: Well, First and foremost, I want I want the crimes

561
00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:29,120
Speaker 6: to be acknowledged, the crimes that were committed against children

562
00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:33,440
Speaker 6: and the genocide of children. And I and I and

563
00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:36,240
Speaker 6: I call it for what it really is, genocide because

564
00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:39,040
Speaker 6: the many that have just that were that were that

565
00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:41,440
Speaker 6: were abused, and a lot of that it's not actually

566
00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:45,440
Speaker 6: just been acknowledged and the perpetrators haven't been named or

567
00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:49,680
Speaker 6: or brought to account to the public honor really, and

568
00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:54,400
Speaker 6: it's that's the main thing, And importantly is the Crown

569
00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:57,200
Speaker 6: to acknowledge the crimes that were committed against children.

570
00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:03,080
Speaker 2: You want names, detail dates, you want organizations called out.

571
00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:13,200
Speaker 6: Exactly while you know they're all trying a sidestep. The

572
00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:16,200
Speaker 6: most important part is that acknowledgement or the crimes committed.

573
00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:21,200
Speaker 6: It's easy to give an apology, but please acknowledge the

574
00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:22,640
Speaker 6: crimes committed against.

575
00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:25,000
Speaker 2: Judn wel thank you for your time. That report has

576
00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:27,840
Speaker 2: been released today after as we've said, a five year

577
00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:31,400
Speaker 2: long inquiry. The Royal Commission Report into Abuse in State

578
00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:36,640
Speaker 2: Here is three thousand pages long, apparently weighs fourteen kilograms.

579
00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:39,080
Speaker 2: The government making its way through it and due to

580
00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:42,080
Speaker 2: apologize in November. That was Carl Tody, the survivor and

Speaker 2: Delaney Hoshick. She's the tactics coach. This is netball. A

592
00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:18,320
Speaker 2: story yesterday she was in a bit of hot water

593
00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:20,520
Speaker 2: or getting slammed for saying that the other team that

594
00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:23,720
Speaker 2: they were playing, they were playing a bit feral was

595
00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:25,960
Speaker 2: the word that she used. He listen, this is when

596
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:28,120
Speaker 2: she's rallying the troops at halftime. Have a listen.

597
00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:32,840
Speaker 13: Take fee all of that.

598
00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:34,160
Speaker 6: What's wrong with that?

599
00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:36,800
Speaker 2: She's she's literally trying to rally the troops, you know,

600
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:39,360
Speaker 2: get them all excited and get some I mean, you

601
00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:41,920
Speaker 2: don't want to say, go and elbow your opponents in

602
00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:44,600
Speaker 2: the ribs. But it happens, doesn't It a netball a

603
00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:47,400
Speaker 2: bit of argie bargie, but a bit of rough and tumble.

604
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:49,960
Speaker 2: That's just sport. I would have thought five minutes away

605
00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:53,640
Speaker 2: from six o'clock on news Talk, sebb Ryan Bridge Mike

606
00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:55,480
Speaker 2: Hosking is next. Good morning morning.

607
00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:59,320
Speaker 14: I'm worried about the Olympics because I'm reading this morning

608
00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:01,960
Speaker 14: that there's a group of people who work out who's

609
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:04,200
Speaker 14: going to be winning medals and how many medals are.

610
00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:07,200
Speaker 14: First of all, there's been a rape in France overnight

611
00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:10,560
Speaker 14: with an Australian. Two of the Channel nine people have

612
00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:15,120
Speaker 14: been attacked. They're saying, if you're an athlete, don't go out,

613
00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:17,920
Speaker 14: preferably don't go out beyond the village, and if you do,

614
00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:21,080
Speaker 14: certainly don't wear a uniform because that immediately identifies you

615
00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:23,000
Speaker 14: as some sort of athlete. So it's a cool start

616
00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:25,240
Speaker 14: and that's where you get to the dirty river and

617
00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:27,040
Speaker 14: all that sort of thing. Anyway, these people do this

618
00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:29,160
Speaker 14: thing whereby they work out who's going to be winning

619
00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:30,880
Speaker 14: medals and how many of them and stuff like that.

620
00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:34,440
Speaker 2: They've got us winning fourteen. Is that good?

621
00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:38,360
Speaker 14: No, because in Tokyo we won twenty, which was quite good.

622
00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:42,680
Speaker 14: We're only going to win four gold apparently, I mean

623
00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:45,840
Speaker 14: obviously who are these people? Well, they work it out

624
00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:48,280
Speaker 14: from history and they look at the competition as to

625
00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:52,800
Speaker 14: where people are at currently. But two of the four

626
00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:55,600
Speaker 14: golds are the rugby and the seven. So the men

627
00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:57,320
Speaker 14: and the women they pick to win gold. So that's

628
00:32:57,360 --> 00:33:00,520
Speaker 14: two immediately, Lisa Carrington's going to win one. Yeah, so

629
00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:03,600
Speaker 14: being done, Liz Krington wins another one in the car

630
00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:05,920
Speaker 14: things the K two could be the K four doesn't matter. Anyway,

631
00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:08,080
Speaker 14: fourteen medals is not many medals.

632
00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:11,760
Speaker 9: Let's hope they're wrong. Well, you know, let's improve them wrong. Well,

633
00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:13,600
Speaker 9: yeah you could, Yeah you could do that. Good on

634
00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:15,680
Speaker 9: you're right now, let's proved them wrong. You know, we're

635
00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:17,800
Speaker 9: a little country that could. And I hope all that

636
00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:19,880
Speaker 9: that's fantastic. But at the end of the day, that's

637
00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:21,320
Speaker 9: going to be a lot of watching, isn't it, Because

638
00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:24,400
Speaker 9: there's always that anticipation that we start watching things we

639
00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:27,720
Speaker 9: don't normally watch in the hope that somehow someone's going

640
00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:30,000
Speaker 9: to do something miraculous for us and we all as

641
00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:32,440
Speaker 9: a nation, you know, bond together and it's a it's

642
00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:34,560
Speaker 9: a great time, et cetera. Anyway, so I thought there

643
00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:35,719
Speaker 9: was somewhat worrying.

644
00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:38,360
Speaker 2: That is worrying, but you're right about I mean, Paris

645
00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:41,240
Speaker 2: has always been pretty dangerous. I found it very angsty.

646
00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:42,239
Speaker 14: I've only been there one yea.

647
00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:45,440
Speaker 2: It's got pushed over in your handbag, stolen when we're there,

648
00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:46,440
Speaker 2: nubs one time.

649
00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:48,200
Speaker 14: So well, it's a good way to start the years.

650
00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:51,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, there you go, Mike Costing with you after six
