1 00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:06,920 Speaker 1: Digging through the spin spens to find the real story story. 2 00:00:07,160 --> 00:00:11,520 Speaker 1: It's Heather Dupersy on drive with one New Zealand let's 3 00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:13,200 Speaker 1: get connected news dogs. 4 00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:13,480 Speaker 2: That'd be. 5 00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:17,639 Speaker 3: Hey, good afternoon, Welcome to the show. Coming up today. 6 00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:21,040 Speaker 3: Ozzie has just announced it will recognize a Palestinian state 7 00:00:21,079 --> 00:00:23,599 Speaker 3: next month. So what are we gonna do? Will christ 8 00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:26,439 Speaker 3: Church's News Stadium actually be ready in time for the 9 00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:29,000 Speaker 3: Super Rugby Super Round which happens next April. We've got 10 00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:31,480 Speaker 3: Chris Hopkins on the poll out this morning and Nikola willis, 11 00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:32,920 Speaker 3: as always on a Monday. 12 00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:34,600 Speaker 4: After six, Heather Duperyl. 13 00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:37,320 Speaker 3: Okay, so let's talk about this political poll. National as 14 00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:41,280 Speaker 3: behind Labor. Nationals on thirty two, Labours on thirty four. Now, 15 00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:43,840 Speaker 3: this is not the first time that National has fallen 16 00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:46,880 Speaker 3: behind Labor since the last since the last election. The 17 00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:49,479 Speaker 3: first time it happened was November last year. Then it 18 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:52,680 Speaker 3: happened again in January twice. Then it happened again in 19 00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:55,080 Speaker 3: March twice. Then it happened in May, then it happened 20 00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:57,080 Speaker 3: twice in June, and then it happened twice just in 21 00:00:57,120 --> 00:00:59,319 Speaker 3: the last month. Now it is becoming more and more 22 00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:01,200 Speaker 3: frequent that this is happening, and if you see it 23 00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:04,520 Speaker 3: in its graph form, it's actually quite arresting what's going 24 00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:07,480 Speaker 3: on here. This is not an aberration. This is a 25 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:12,000 Speaker 3: trend of National consistently losing ground and Labor consistently making 26 00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:14,520 Speaker 3: up ground. And this has been happening since the election, 27 00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:16,640 Speaker 3: but it really started to gather steam at the start 28 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:19,039 Speaker 3: of this year. Now I do not think that Labor 29 00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:21,480 Speaker 3: will win the next election because I think their bedfellows 30 00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:23,120 Speaker 3: and the Greens and the Mary Party are just way 31 00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:25,320 Speaker 3: too nutty. I don't think enough people will want to 32 00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:28,760 Speaker 3: vote for Labor. But National should be worried because these 33 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,120 Speaker 3: polls show that enough voters don't want to vote for 34 00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:36,560 Speaker 3: National either, because right now they are profoundly disappointing, aren't they. 35 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:40,200 Speaker 3: I mean, answer me this question. What has this government 36 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:43,759 Speaker 3: done to help the economy? Apart from the investment tax 37 00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:45,680 Speaker 3: boost incentive in the budget? In mate, what have they 38 00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:48,840 Speaker 3: actually done? I feel like the answer is nothing. Yes, 39 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:50,680 Speaker 3: this economy was shot when they took it over. It's 40 00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:53,160 Speaker 3: not their fault. But their election promise was to get 41 00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 3: it back on track. But in order to get it 42 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:57,160 Speaker 3: back on track, you actually have to do something and 43 00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 3: they've done nothing, thus spending more than grant, are running 44 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:03,840 Speaker 3: deficits from here until basically the end of their possible term, 45 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 3: and they're making announcements of things that they might want 46 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 3: to do sometime in the future, but they're not doing 47 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 3: it just yet. If there is a vibe in this 48 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:14,240 Speaker 3: country right now, especially in places like Auckland and Wellington, 49 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:16,760 Speaker 3: it's a vibe that I reckon kicked in about five 50 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 3: or six weeks ago, properly, just after the halfway mark 51 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,680 Speaker 3: of this government's electoral term, when people realized, you know what, 52 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:27,240 Speaker 3: we're halfway through and they've done nothing, and this economy 53 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 3: still sucks, and that I think is what you're seeing 54 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:32,359 Speaker 3: in this poll, just a lot of disappointment. 55 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 4: Heather duplasy Ellen, I'm nice t night. 56 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,520 Speaker 3: Here is the text. Understand it. Text fees apply hitnear 57 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:43,680 Speaker 3: with what you think. Obviously very sober on that. Shortly now, 58 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:46,400 Speaker 3: a new report has found that our heart health system 59 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 3: is on the verge of collapse. According to the Ministry 60 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 3: of Health Data, there are fewer than one hundred and 61 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 3: eighty cardiologists and cardiac stuff in the whole country, and 62 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:57,919 Speaker 3: none at all in places like tide Arfty Lakes or Funganui. 63 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,800 Speaker 3: Heart disease is responsible for twenty cent of all deaths 64 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 3: in this country costs US more than thirteen billion dollars 65 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:06,079 Speaker 3: a year. Doctor Richard Sullivan is Health New Zealand's chief 66 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:09,920 Speaker 3: Clinical officer and with us, Hey, Richard good head, do 67 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,360 Speaker 3: you think we have enough staff dealing with hearts in 68 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:13,960 Speaker 3: this country? 69 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:16,960 Speaker 5: I'll look first at to point out report. I think 70 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 5: some great news in there that what we've seen over 71 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,919 Speaker 5: the last twenty years is a significant reduction and death 72 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:27,520 Speaker 5: from heart disease and the significant production in our hospitalizations. 73 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:29,600 Speaker 5: But you know, we see a lot of work to do, 74 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 5: particularly in the space of our heart skins, so what 75 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 5: we call into cardiograms, and so that is a key 76 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:40,520 Speaker 5: challenge for us. We've got some of our regions that 77 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 5: are well staffed in become a heart cardioc space, the 78 00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 5: Northern region for instance, bus other areas as you've mentioned, Tatapati, 79 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:52,120 Speaker 5: Taranaki whereby we do have challenges in our workforce in 80 00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 5: those spaces. 81 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 3: Yeah. Do you think the lack of cardiac staff in 82 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 3: those areas that you just named is directly responsible for 83 00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 3: the death? 84 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 5: Well, look, it's more complicated than that. When you think 85 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 5: about heart disease, it's really the risk factors that I'm just. 86 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 3: Point something out to you. The areas with the highest 87 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:15,080 Speaker 3: heart disease death rates tier Arfterity Lakes, fung Luis and 88 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 3: Taranaki have the fewest cardiac stuff. That seems like that's 89 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 3: a causation, isn't it. 90 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm not sure I quite draw that bow. There's 91 00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:26,479 Speaker 5: no doubt that. I mean, in those populations you have 92 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,599 Speaker 5: just described, we see higher rates of diabetes, we see 93 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 5: higher rates of other I guess those respectives that lead 94 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:35,720 Speaker 5: to heart disease. And so yeah, super important because it's 95 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,559 Speaker 5: about that primary care access first, you know, so people 96 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 5: can get seen, we can mitigate those risks. But the 97 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 5: problem is as once you've got heart disease then absolutely 98 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:46,719 Speaker 5: you know, having the right access to services is super 99 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 5: important to try and minimize it on going harm from 100 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 5: once you've got establish heart disease. So there's a trying 101 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:54,480 Speaker 5: to reduce some prevent the risk and then there's okay, 102 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:56,480 Speaker 5: I've got it, and I I've got the right services 103 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:57,840 Speaker 5: to make sure that I get the best scare. 104 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:01,920 Speaker 3: Do we have enough full time cardiologists or any type 105 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,560 Speaker 3: of cardiologists in this country. 106 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 5: Look, as I mentioned, in some spaces we do and 107 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:09,359 Speaker 5: others the whole. 108 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 3: Country, Richard, do we have enough in the country because 109 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:16,920 Speaker 3: the answers don't make all I'm worried about. 110 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 6: I'm not sure. 111 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:19,920 Speaker 5: I'm not being weird. I'm not sure it is because 112 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 5: it's not about just that cardiologists. So we have lots 113 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 5: of people deliver heart health care. So in an area 114 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 5: it's like one going we don't have any cardiologists, may. 115 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 3: Just treat people with respect, right, rather than spinning us. 116 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:36,560 Speaker 3: We have got thirty two point eight full time equivalent 117 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:39,480 Speaker 3: cardiologists per million people, which is less than a third 118 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 3: of the average in European countries. That's not enough. 119 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 5: I'm not suggesting that, you know, we always need more 120 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:49,320 Speaker 5: to help workforce either. I guess what I'm trying. 121 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:51,600 Speaker 3: To say that Why don't you say, no, we don't 122 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 3: have enough. Actually, what we need is some more and 123 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 3: we need some more cash to be able to do that, 124 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 3: because that's the actual answer, isn't it. 125 00:05:58,120 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 5: Just so I know, I don't agree with you. I 126 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:02,280 Speaker 5: think now it's far more complicated network. You know, we 127 00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:05,479 Speaker 5: need we need more eco technicians. We're working hard to 128 00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:08,159 Speaker 5: do that. We need more cartact physiologists. We need more 129 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 5: you know, nurse practitioners advanced as specialist. So so we 130 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:15,839 Speaker 5: need the workforce to deliver heart health. But really importantly 131 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 5: we also need to reduce the risk of heart health. 132 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 5: And you know that's all this report shows. It shows 133 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 5: we're making roads, but we've got significant variations you will 134 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:26,720 Speaker 5: have seen in the report, which is a real concern. 135 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:30,520 Speaker 5: You know, we still see a Maoripacific having Tuton's greater 136 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 5: risk of harm from heart disease. We see these regions, 137 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,839 Speaker 5: these rural spaces you've described, So it's really that focus 138 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 5: and you know we are you know, trying to improve 139 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:42,800 Speaker 5: the opportunity here. So Tarapity, as I say, is a 140 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:45,919 Speaker 5: really good example. We've been working really closely with that 141 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 5: region and we're looking at joint appointments because we've really 142 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:52,039 Speaker 5: struggled to recruit cardiologists into startraarity. So looking at joint 143 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 5: depointment between White Cato and Tiapity, Well, no, it's not 144 00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 5: no one's to live here. It's about it's about that 145 00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:02,040 Speaker 5: kind of level of care. Because if you're cardiologists these days, 146 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:04,719 Speaker 5: they get more specialized, so they might be involved in 147 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:07,600 Speaker 5: putting stints all the mabor doing other things, so being 148 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 5: able to do that as well as work in that 149 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 5: community because where we don't put stints in that space, 150 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 5: you know. So it's about that kind of connection, so 151 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 5: you can make those roles and those jobs across regions 152 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 5: and that's one of the real opportunities we think we 153 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 5: have our We've got a national heart network which is 154 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 5: trying to address many of these challenges. So you know, 155 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:30,640 Speaker 5: we've established national guidelines around ECHO. We've set up this 156 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:33,640 Speaker 5: New Zealand training program because all our e technicians used 157 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:36,040 Speaker 5: to train in Queensland and so they wouldn't come back. 158 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 5: So you know, we're putting a real investment in the 159 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 5: spaces where we see the greatest need. A lot to 160 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 5: your original question, we need more people, but we need 161 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 5: to focus on the area. 162 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,560 Speaker 3: Yes we do. Now very quickly, what's going on with 163 00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:49,840 Speaker 3: you people charging this much money on parking? Are you 164 00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:50,720 Speaker 3: comfortable with that? 165 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 5: So look, we're we're about the national parking policy and 166 00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,320 Speaker 5: I think I can say is that that the issue 167 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 5: are raised, that's been paused while we just review what 168 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 5: is the right model. 169 00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:04,400 Speaker 7: Coming out? 170 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:09,600 Speaker 5: I can't answer that either.

You know, 197 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:24,840 Speaker 8: as soon as the rules changed, Grace Wiki got her 198 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 8: eligibility request for an exemption in Look, if there was 199 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:31,240 Speaker 8: any delay at themt Born New Zealand headquarters, I'd be 200 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:34,240 Speaker 8: very surprised.

They have been the Grace 208 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 8: Wiki rule, we'll call it from now on, and good 209 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:55,440 Speaker 8: to see that sanity has prevailed. 210 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 9: Now. 211 00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:58,680 Speaker 3: There are rumors right that the likes of Karen Berger 212 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 3: are also going to go over and lay over in 213 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:02,600 Speaker 3: Australia and still be selected of the silver ferns. Are 214 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 3: you hearing that kind of thing? 215 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 8: I am yep, and I think it will happen. I 216 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 8: think this opens up the not the floodgates, that's the 217 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 8: wrong word, but it certainly opens the door for others 218 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:13,319 Speaker 8: to do the same. They're not all going to get 219 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:15,839 Speaker 8: a gig over there, Heather. Let's not forget that that's 220 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 8: a really strong competition in Australia with a lot of 221 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:20,920 Speaker 8: good Australian players. But yeah, the likes of Karen Berger 222 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:24,199 Speaker 8: maybe a few others will be looking across there and saying, okay, 223 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:26,880 Speaker 8: well now I know that playing there doesn't affect myself 224 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:29,400 Speaker 8: a fern's eligibility. I'll have a bit of a closer 225 00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 8: look at it. So we'll wait and see how many 226 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 8: do actually make that move. 227 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:33,760 Speaker 3: Right, So this is the end for the Warriors in 228 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:34,640 Speaker 3: terms of the top four. 229 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 8: Feels like it a even though they're in one point 230 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:39,720 Speaker 8: outside the top four, the top four at the moment 231 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:44,040 Speaker 8: just feel like the top four. They're playing that way. Raiders, Storm, Bulldogs, Panthers, 232 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 8: the Warriors, much as they are still you know, mathematically 233 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,480 Speaker 8: absolutely a chance, they're just not playing like a top 234 00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:52,840 Speaker 8: four team. At the moment. Injuries have played their part, obviously, 235 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:58,600 Speaker 8: but three consecutive defeats. The only shred of I guess 236 00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:02,400 Speaker 8: or you know, the sliver of hope is that the 237 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:05,440 Speaker 8: teams in the top four all have to play one 238 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:08,520 Speaker 8: another to varying degrees, so they'll take points off one another. 239 00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 8: If the Warriors were able to string a late season 240 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:13,679 Speaker 8: run together and win their last four games, they might 241 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 8: still be a chance, but they're gonna have to play 242 00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:16,720 Speaker 8: a heck of a lot bitter than they have been. 243 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:18,439 Speaker 3: What do you think about the news that tomoighty Marsin 244 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 3: has signed again. 245 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:23,200 Speaker 8: Yeah, I'm pleased. You know, a good player, If you 246 00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:25,440 Speaker 8: keep a good player at your club, I think you're happy. 247 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 8: He must have been convinced that he was going to 248 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:29,240 Speaker 8: get a decent crack, because at the start of the 249 00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 8: season everybody thought luc Metcalff, you know, might have to 250 00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:34,319 Speaker 8: wait in line behind to Mighty Martin. He would be 251 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 8: given the seven jumper hasn't been, so yeah, he must 252 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 8: have been convinced by Andrew Webster that his opportunities would 253 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 8: continue to be forthcoming. So yeah, it's a good piece 254 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:41,840 Speaker 8: of business. 255 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:44,040 Speaker 3: Listen, just really quickly, are you worried at all about 256 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 3: the Super Rugby super Round being played at the new 257 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:49,320 Speaker 3: stadium and Christ it's just like days after they get 258 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:50,040 Speaker 3: handed the keys. 259 00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:50,960 Speaker 8: Nah, I can't wait. 260 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:51,679 Speaker 4: I can't wait for it. 261 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:55,559 Speaker 3: Yeah, your total confidence this will be okay? 262 00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:57,240 Speaker 8: Are you worried we're gonna have to go out to 263 00:11:57,360 --> 00:11:58,559 Speaker 8: Eddington out of. 264 00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:01,079 Speaker 10: That Apollo projects for super Round? 265 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 4: Imagine? 266 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:03,600 Speaker 8: Oh sorry it's not quite ready. 267 00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 3: Ye yeah, this does happen.

Jason Pine SportsTalk coasting 269 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 3: be back at seven this evening. I'm worried about it 270 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:16,680 Speaker 3: because I'm not on the timeline is not totally totally clear, 271 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:19,840 Speaker 3: but takaha. The stadium is supposed to be finished in 272 00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 3: early April next year and then the super Round will 273 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:25,680 Speaker 3: be played from April twenty four to April twenty six. 274 00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:28,200 Speaker 3: Now look, I don't know if you have ever had 275 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:32,480 Speaker 3: a renovation done, or a pool puddin, or a deck built, 276 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,760 Speaker 3: or a house built, or frankly anything that involves builders. 277 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:37,959 Speaker 3: But when they say to you, year, mate, we done 278 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 3: in April to I'm worry about it, you should be 279 00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 3: thinking November. It does take that long. So when they 280 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:44,840 Speaker 3: say they're going to hand the keys over to the 281 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 3: stadium in early April and then they're gonna they're already 282 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:49,880 Speaker 3: sending out the invitations for the housewarming, which is going 283 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:51,560 Speaker 3: to be happening with the Super Round, I start to 284 00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:54,240 Speaker 3: get a little bit nervous, don't you. Anyway, the christ 285 00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:56,400 Speaker 3: Chuch people will be with us and just under an 286 00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 3: how they'll we'll gauge their level of confidence about this. 287 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:03,680 Speaker 4: Moving the big stories of the day forward. 288 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:07,600 Speaker 1: An it's Heather dupic on drive with One New Zealand 289 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:09,880 Speaker 1: let's get connected news talks. 290 00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:11,320 Speaker 4: That'd be Oh dear lord. 291 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:13,840 Speaker 3: It looks like JD. Vance's latest efforts to shut down 292 00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 3: the Epstein files thing has completely backfired on him. So 293 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 3: he gave a week an interview to Fox at the 294 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 3: weekend and he was accusing the Democrats of going to 295 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:24,240 Speaker 3: Epstein Island. The whole time he didn't say who, but 296 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:26,840 Speaker 3: you know, Democratic leaders have been visiting Epstein as well, 297 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:29,840 Speaker 3: and they're just being opportunistic because they didn't release the 298 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:31,679 Speaker 3: files when they could have released the files when they 299 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:34,320 Speaker 3: were in government, and blah blah blah. Problem is obviously, 300 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:37,960 Speaker 3: what then happened was people started clipping out what he 301 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 3: said in this interview about the need for the Democrats 302 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:43,600 Speaker 3: to be transparent and so on, posted it on social 303 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:45,960 Speaker 3: media and they've just started a play and then with 304 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:48,520 Speaker 3: the caption released the Epstein files. So just putting so 305 00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:51,360 Speaker 3: much more pressure on Trump to release the files on 306 00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:53,680 Speaker 3: account of the fact that JD Vance talked about it again. 307 00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:58,840 Speaker 3: Four twenty six, Heather Do for CLA Australia one and 308 00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:01,880 Speaker 3: a half hours ago announced this is Anthony Albanesi announced 309 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:04,800 Speaker 3: that he would be recognizing a Palestinian state when it 310 00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 3: goes to the UN next month. This has now got 311 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:09,840 Speaker 3: piling pressure on Winston Peters to answer the question as 312 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:11,840 Speaker 3: to whether we will be doing the same thing. The 313 00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:14,760 Speaker 3: Prime Minister, Christopher Luxin is holding his usual post cabinet 314 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:16,679 Speaker 3: press conference at the moment, has been asked about it. 315 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:19,600 Speaker 11: It's a very complex issue because it's all very well 316 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:22,760 Speaker 11: recognizing the state, but what comes next that is the 317 00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 11: critical question. And so you know, those are the things 318 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:26,800 Speaker 11: that we need to think through and work our way 319 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:29,720 Speaker 11: through as we come to a very considered and deliberate 320 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 11: decision about our position on it. 321 00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:34,680 Speaker 3: Sounds like and this wouldn't be IFR fetch sounds like 322 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 3: it's possible. Albanesi has been lobbying Luxeon about this. 323 00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 4: Over the last week. 324 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:42,520 Speaker 11: I've spoken with Promise, our President Macron, I've spoken with 325 00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:47,040 Speaker 11: Promise to Starma. I've spoken obviously with Anthony on this issue. 326 00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:50,040 Speaker 11: You know, we talked about it again while we were 327 00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:51,120 Speaker 11: together over the weekend. 328 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:54,040 Speaker 3: Got a little bit all quard in Is asked who 329 00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 3: we have been consulting from the Palestinian side. 330 00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:57,720 Speaker 4: Who did New Zealand. 331 00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:03,200 Speaker 1: Talk to of the Palastine inside. 332 00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 12: I promise. 333 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:09,520 Speaker 11: Minister Peters has actually spoken to over and over.

If we 342 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:27,960 Speaker 3: do do it, there will have to be some caveats, right, 343 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:30,320 Speaker 3: there would have to be strings attached to it. So yes, 344 00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 3: we'll recognize a Palestinian state can't be run by hamas 345 00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:35,840 Speaker 3: can't be run by the Palestinian authority something like that. 346 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:38,000 Speaker 3: Let's have a chat about that after five o'clock.

Al Jazeera and 388 00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:54,000 Speaker 3: the Committee to Protect Journalists both say this is not true. 389 00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:59,199 Speaker 3: Al Jazeera anchor Schehab Ratanzi says the idea is clearly 390 00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:01,960 Speaker 3: trying to stop news getting out about atrocities in Gaza. 391 00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:04,320 Speaker 9: And the specifically our Gaza City team, the Aldersur Gaza 392 00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:07,280 Speaker 9: City Team was about to report on the atrocities to 393 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:14,679 Speaker 9: come as well begins it's operation in Gaza City. This 394 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:17,440 Speaker 9: is clearly this is clearly all perhaps connected. 395 00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:19,960 Speaker 3: Right as we've discussed, the Aussie government has announced that 396 00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:23,600 Speaker 3: it will recognize Palestine as a state. Australia considers COMMASI 397 00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:25,800 Speaker 3: terrist group, but the Home Affairs Minister says that's no 398 00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:27,639 Speaker 3: reason not to recognize Palestine. 399 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:32,119 Speaker 14: They there have frequently been countries where part of that 400 00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:38,200 Speaker 14: nation has been occupied by a terrorist group and we 401 00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:40,640 Speaker 14: haven't ceased to recognize the country. 402 00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:44,960 Speaker 3: And finally, a man in Austria has been arrested after 403 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:46,560 Speaker 3: he clung to the outside of a train while the 404 00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:48,720 Speaker 3: train was in motion. So what happened was he was 405 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:50,480 Speaker 3: mid journey, he got off the train at the station 406 00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 3: for a bit of a ciggie break. That took a 407 00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:54,719 Speaker 3: little bit too long, as his train took off without him. 408 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:56,879 Speaker 3: He jumped into the space between the two carriages and 409 00:18:56,960 --> 00:18:59,199 Speaker 3: he was able to reboard after the train made an 410 00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:02,520 Speaker 3: emergency stop. He was completely unhurt, but he did get 411 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:04,400 Speaker 3: a bollocking from the train conductor and he was led 412 00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:06,320 Speaker 3: away by police when he reached his destination. 413 00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:11,000 Speaker 1: International Correspondence with Ends and Eye Insurance, Peace of Mind 414 00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:12,840 Speaker 1: for New Zealand Business. 415 00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:16,360 Speaker 3: Oliver Peterson, six PR Perth Life Presenters with us Ali 416 00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:19,359 Speaker 3: Hey Heather. I can not at all a surprise that 417 00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:21,280 Speaker 3: Albanizi has taken this position, right. 418 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:23,399 Speaker 15: It's not a surprise, and he said he had a 419 00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 15: very short and sharp conversation with Benjamin Ettnia who in 420 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:29,960 Speaker 15: the last couple of days. But Australia will recognize the 421 00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:32,480 Speaker 15: right of the Palestinian people to a state of their own, 422 00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:35,560 Speaker 15: which is predicated on the commitments Australia's received from the 423 00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:38,880 Speaker 15: Palestine authority. Prime Minister arguing that this is the best 424 00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:41,360 Speaker 15: chance for peace in Gaza and he will take this 425 00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:45,160 Speaker 15: to the United Nations General Assembly in New York next 426 00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:47,960 Speaker 15: month when that official recognition will be made. He's made 427 00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 15: it very clear there is to be no role of 428 00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:54,359 Speaker 15: Hamas in any Palestinian state moving forward. But a big 429 00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:58,040 Speaker 15: change I suppose in what Australia is acknowledging a Palestinian 430 00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:02,280 Speaker 15: state and policy direction that the governments. Prime Minister though, 431 00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:04,600 Speaker 15: was saying again that this is the best chance for 432 00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:07,040 Speaker 15: peace and that he will be taking this forward. 433 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:10,480 Speaker 3: Is he going to get broad support for this or not? 434 00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:16,840 Speaker 15: Look, I think he will get I don't know. That's 435 00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 15: a very very good question that you ask, Heather, because 436 00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:23,000 Speaker 15: he will get broad support within his own rank and file. Yes, 437 00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:26,639 Speaker 15: the opposition is already saying you cannot do this, and 438 00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:29,679 Speaker 15: I think Australians are on the fence with this at 439 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,640 Speaker 15: the moment. I do believe that a lot of Australians 440 00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:35,399 Speaker 15: are very concerned about what he's continuing to go on 441 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 15: in Gaza at the moment. But I think it's a 442 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:41,360 Speaker 15: little bit I hate to say this out of side, 443 00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:43,400 Speaker 15: out of mind for a lot of Australians at the moment. 444 00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 15: It's been going on for so long that it just 445 00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:48,200 Speaker 15: it almost unfortunately gets swept under the carpet, which it 446 00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:50,919 Speaker 15: shouldn't be done. But this is a bold statement obviously 447 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:52,600 Speaker 15: the Prime Minister, and as I said, he's been under 448 00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:54,800 Speaker 15: an internal pressure even going back to the days of 449 00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:57,560 Speaker 15: the former Foreign Minister Bob Carr. He put this forward 450 00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:00,960 Speaker 15: back in twenty fourteen at the Labor National Conference and 451 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:03,440 Speaker 15: he's been advocating at every opportunity that this would happen. 452 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:05,840 Speaker 15: So I think it'll be very interesting and you know 453 00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:07,840 Speaker 15: when I jump on with my show a little later 454 00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:09,879 Speaker 15: today here on six pou be very interesting to hear 455 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:11,320 Speaker 15: what the talk back in the feedback's like. 456 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:14,400 Speaker 3: Did we get much detail on what that phone call 457 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:15,280 Speaker 3: with BB was like. 458 00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:18,440 Speaker 15: No, he wouldn't go into much detail at all, other 459 00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:20,520 Speaker 15: than he's had the call. He's let him know what 460 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:23,639 Speaker 15: he thinks and why this is going to happen. He 461 00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 15: said that countries like Australia that as you've heard now 462 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:30,600 Speaker 15: Benjamin Etna, who's come out and criticized that in Albanese 463 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:33,560 Speaker 15: for that, saying to have European countries and Australia march 464 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:35,720 Speaker 15: into that rabbit hole just like that. He's disappointing and 465 00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:39,040 Speaker 15: it's actually shameful. So Penny Wog our Foreign Minister, she's 466 00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:41,359 Speaker 15: also been on the phone to Marco Rubio of the 467 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:44,720 Speaker 15: Trump administration to let him know. And obviously, as we know, 468 00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:48,680 Speaker 15: we are in a very interesting situation politically with the 469 00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:53,320 Speaker 15: Trump administration over the Orchest Deal. Whether this declaration by 470 00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:56,639 Speaker 15: the Australian governments in any way jeopardizes any of that, 471 00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:59,960 Speaker 15: or did it have any conversations with the Trump administr 472 00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:02,760 Speaker 15: before at the Albanize he made that call this morning. 473 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:05,680 Speaker 3: Hey, I am shocked that your evs don't pay road 474 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:06,520 Speaker 3: user charges. 475 00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 4: Well, see, we're copying you. 476 00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:10,119 Speaker 3: We're copying what you're doing in u Z. 477 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:11,560 Speaker 4: So we're going to look at that. 478 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:14,040 Speaker 15: We've got that big round table, this whole Productivity Commission 479 00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:16,520 Speaker 15: roundtable thing that a Jim Chalmers is trying to get 480 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:19,000 Speaker 15: everybody talking about what we can do to make the 481 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:20,040 Speaker 15: country more productive. 482 00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:21,680 Speaker 4: He wants to scrap. 483 00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:24,160 Speaker 15: The fuel excise and put on that road user charge, 484 00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:26,840 Speaker 15: which I know you announced in New Zealand just last week. 485 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:29,320 Speaker 15: I assume we're probably going to be basically copying what 486 00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 15: you are doing, because that's what we do. New Zealand 487 00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:33,879 Speaker 15: does something good, we take it, we do it, we 488 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:36,720 Speaker 15: claim it as our own. So the idea is that 489 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:39,640 Speaker 15: we'll get rid of the fifty one point six cents 490 00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 15: I lead a fuel excise. And yeah, the EV's obviously, 491 00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:44,720 Speaker 15: I mean everyone's buying evs at hybrids at the moment, 492 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:46,800 Speaker 15: so you have to pay a bit more. But you 493 00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:49,000 Speaker 15: know what, I think it's fair. You use the roads, 494 00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:49,920 Speaker 15: you pay for it. 495 00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:53,119 Speaker 3: Mate, It's beyond fair. Those things are pothole makers. I 496 00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:56,000 Speaker 3: totally think so holy heavy, yees, so heavy mate. Thank 497 00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:57,800 Speaker 3: you so much.

I think you would do it at least 503 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:15,360 Speaker 16: what we're doing. Probably maybe not as efficiently and as 504 00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:18,640 Speaker 16: a precision as precisely as we're doing it. 505 00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:22,280 Speaker 3: Anyway, that's a thing, isn't it. We'll talk about that 506 00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:24,879 Speaker 3: after five o'clock. Brilliant Listen, I've got to bring you 507 00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:26,440 Speaker 3: some good news. I want to talk to you about 508 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:29,359 Speaker 3: this new It feels it's hard to talk about Garza 509 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:31,000 Speaker 3: and then talk about anything else. I'm going to take 510 00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:33,000 Speaker 3: a break, but we're going to come back and talk 511 00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:36,480 Speaker 3: about this luxury hotel they're building in Queenstown, seventeen away 512 00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:36,840 Speaker 3: from five. 513 00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:41,400 Speaker 1: Politics with Centrics Credit check your customers and get payments certainty. 514 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:44,240 Speaker 3: For senior political correspondence with us how Barry, Good afternoon, Heather. 515 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:45,440 Speaker 3: What do you make that opinion poll? 516 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:48,560 Speaker 2: Well, what I've made of all the opinion polls of 517 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:52,359 Speaker 2: late Actually they're not that dissimilar. That yeah, not looking 518 00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:56,080 Speaker 2: too good for National this one. They won't be very 519 00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:59,520 Speaker 2: happy with it. But you know, the Prime minister's been 520 00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:02,440 Speaker 2: criticized for not commenting on opinion polls. I think he's 521 00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:05,119 Speaker 2: wise not to. I mean, he says, why should he 522 00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:07,920 Speaker 2: be talking about himself? He should be talking about things 523 00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:10,120 Speaker 2: that are a bit more important, and that's the economy. 524 00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 2: And I think he's quite right. 525 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:13,720 Speaker 3: There no point talking about the economy. Need to do something. 526 00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:16,560 Speaker 2: Well, you could say that, Heather, I'm sure you will 527 00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:20,240 Speaker 2: be saying that as well. But this Caurier pole is interesting. 528 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:23,840 Speaker 2: It sees are hung parliament, sixty one seats for each block. 529 00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:26,560 Speaker 2: But there's a TV and Zed pole coming out at 530 00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:29,120 Speaker 2: six o'clock as well. And my bet is, and I'll 531 00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:32,359 Speaker 2: bet you a good bottle of wine that the Tvan 532 00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:35,040 Speaker 2: Zed pole will be more sympathetic to the National Party 533 00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:37,800 Speaker 2: and we'll see a cent to write government. 534 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:39,120 Speaker 3: Quite compatible, still quite tight. 535 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:43,680 Speaker 2: It'll be tight. But you know, if you want Chloe 536 00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:47,040 Speaker 2: Swarbrick as the Finance minister in the next government, I 537 00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:49,920 Speaker 2: think the public should reflect on that, because she says 538 00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:52,439 Speaker 2: it won't be a labor leed government anyway, it'll be 539 00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:55,119 Speaker 2: a Greens lead government. And that's from their conference of 540 00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:58,240 Speaker 2: the weekend. Yeah, so you know, if you want a 541 00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 2: benefit for life, then vote to. 542 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:03,800 Speaker 3: The Labo block. I take your point right. It's not 543 00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:06,800 Speaker 3: as if the other side are shining lights, right. They're 544 00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:09,200 Speaker 3: still the same crew who put us in the show 545 00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 3: with the economy. But do you not think that national 546 00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:15,040 Speaker 3: and the reputations attached to what's going on here lux 547 00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:17,080 Speaker 3: and Willis at ol shouldn't Do you not think that 548 00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:18,639 Speaker 3: they should be worried about what's going on in the 549 00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:21,399 Speaker 3: polling because people clearly aren't very stoked with what they're doing. A. 550 00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:25,760 Speaker 2: No, of course people aren't that stoked because when you've 551 00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:27,959 Speaker 2: got an economy like we had in two thousand at 552 00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:30,600 Speaker 2: the end of two thousand and three, it takes more 553 00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:32,720 Speaker 2: than ten minutes to turn that economy around. 554 00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:33,240 Speaker 3: What have they done? 555 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:36,399 Speaker 2: I've had eighteen months? Well, you know there's a number 556 00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:39,760 Speaker 2: of things such as well, oh, for goodness sake, you know, 557 00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:41,000 Speaker 2: we've got more to talk about. 558 00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:44,840 Speaker 3: Them challenging because I'm challenging everybody who's fanboys to tell 559 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:45,560 Speaker 3: me what they've. 560 00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:47,679 Speaker 2: Done I'm not a fanboy of anybody. What I'm just 561 00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:50,920 Speaker 2: saying is if you look at opinion polls through the ages, 562 00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:53,600 Speaker 2: and if you look nineteen eighty seven, for example, the 563 00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:55,640 Speaker 2: opinion polls have got to say then though, were much 564 00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:58,440 Speaker 2: better for the long e lead labor government, even though 565 00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:02,119 Speaker 2: the public suffered greatly during the eighty four to eighty 566 00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:06,000 Speaker 2: seven period. But and they simply went to the eighty 567 00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:10,280 Speaker 2: seven election after the snap election in nineteen eighty four 568 00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:13,120 Speaker 2: saying let us finish the business now. The public then 569 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:16,320 Speaker 2: were of a mind, even though they were hurting greatly 570 00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:19,160 Speaker 2: as much as they are now at the moment, they 571 00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:22,360 Speaker 2: voted Labor back in. And I'm sure that you will 572 00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:26,840 Speaker 2: see next year this government will be voted back because 573 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 2: things will be looking better. 574 00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:31,440 Speaker 3: She just start cutting it last year. They're cutting it fine. 575 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:34,439 Speaker 3: But can I just to your comparison there, So what 576 00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:37,200 Speaker 3: you're saying is nineteen eighty four to eighty seven, like now, 577 00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:40,639 Speaker 3: very hard time economically, that government doing a lot, getting 578 00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:43,119 Speaker 3: rewarded in the polls. This government not getting rewarded in 579 00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:45,199 Speaker 3: the polls maybe for not doing a lot. So is 580 00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:48,080 Speaker 3: it possible actually that even if voters are hurting, they 581 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:50,639 Speaker 3: will still support you if they can see you doing something. 582 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:53,280 Speaker 3: That's well true that and I think that's the problem. 583 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:57,040 Speaker 2: The difficult Yes, no, that is true. But the difficulty 584 00:26:57,119 --> 00:27:00,199 Speaker 2: here is they haven't got a lot to play with 585 00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:04,280 Speaker 2: in terms of money. Even though they are borrowing quite heavily. 586 00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:07,320 Speaker 2: They can't you know, they can't willy nilly borrow like. 587 00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:10,119 Speaker 4: Three years before that. 588 00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:12,919 Speaker 3: They shouldn't be spending. That's the problem. They should be 589 00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:15,239 Speaker 3: cutting anyway, Listen, we need to move on. What do 590 00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:17,360 Speaker 3: you think of this business with the state of Palestine. 591 00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:20,800 Speaker 2: Well, you know, we're not having a barb each way 592 00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:24,199 Speaker 2: where if you listen to Winston Peter's we're considering it 593 00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:28,959 Speaker 2: very carefully. But he's always said that the final recognition 594 00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:33,240 Speaker 2: will come. It's only a matter of if not when 595 00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:36,160 Speaker 2: or when not if that it will come. But there 596 00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:38,679 Speaker 2: are a few preconditions on that and that's what the 597 00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:42,600 Speaker 2: Cabinet will be considering before Winston Peters, interestingly is going 598 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:46,040 Speaker 2: to deliver the Leader's Address at the UN General Assembly 599 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:49,440 Speaker 2: in September and we'll outline our position in detail then. 600 00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:52,640 Speaker 2: At his post cabinet news conference today, Chris Luckson said 601 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:56,240 Speaker 2: there are conditions on the recognition of Palestine as a 602 00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:57,080 Speaker 2: state though. 603 00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:58,960 Speaker 11: We're not going to recognize the state that has hum 604 00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:00,680 Speaker 11: us and that there is no role for Harmas and 605 00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:04,640 Speaker 11: any future Palestinian state. And you know, I think you've 606 00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:06,240 Speaker 11: seen that from a number of the leaders that have 607 00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:09,200 Speaker 11: changed changed their positions on recognition or accelerated their positions 608 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:12,680 Speaker 11: on recognition. So for us, you know, that's an absolute nonstarter. 609 00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:15,240 Speaker 11: Our view very clearly is Hamas started this, you know, 610 00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:20,440 Speaker 11: October seventh with twelve hundred Jewish folk. Are innocent civilians killed, 611 00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:23,359 Speaker 11: hostages that have been held over a long period of time. 612 00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:25,160 Speaker 11: They need to release the hostages. 613 00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:26,080 Speaker 4: Is as simple as that. 614 00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:28,760 Speaker 2: And we're not alone in that. Of course, a number 615 00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:31,720 Speaker 2: of countries that will say will have said they're going 616 00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:34,920 Speaker 2: to recognize Palestine, but that'll be one of the preconditions, 617 00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:35,680 Speaker 2: no doubt about it. 618 00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 3: Just really quickly, do you reckon the Greens that are 619 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:41,480 Speaker 3: in trouble in Wellington with this redefinition of the boundaries here? 620 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:43,960 Speaker 2: Well, absolutely. If you look at Wellington Central, which is 621 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:47,440 Speaker 2: tim of the pool's electorate, that's really it's going to 622 00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:50,200 Speaker 2: be called Wellington North. So Central is going to go 623 00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:53,640 Speaker 2: and they are going to Wellington North is going to 624 00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 2: take in areas where she would have a big difficulty 625 00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:02,920 Speaker 2: in winning the electorate. Kendala wades down and Nao the 626 00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:09,040 Speaker 2: more wealthy areas. Wrong Atie also extends to Brooklyn and 627 00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:13,040 Speaker 2: Mount Cook, which is interesting. And that's don't forget Julia 628 00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:15,880 Speaker 2: and genter both these women, tim of the Paul and 629 00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:19,200 Speaker 2: Julia and gender. They're more upset though that about the 630 00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:21,520 Speaker 2: name of the wrong Atta is going to go and 631 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:24,520 Speaker 2: Julian says, no, we weren't like wrong attire. It means 632 00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:27,160 Speaker 2: the sound of the sea. Well, it might be the 633 00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:30,440 Speaker 2: sounds of the Greens heading out the. 634 00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 3: Door at Parliament Tamoth Paul's launched a petition. 635 00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:35,560 Speaker 2: I had to change the names. 636 00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:37,720 Speaker 3: Keep the names, but only the Marty names.

And of all of them, the one 673 00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:55,880 Speaker 3: I'm going to miss the most and I do think 674 00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:58,560 Speaker 3: they should bring back is Wellington Central because I don't 675 00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:00,560 Speaker 3: know if you know this, but we've had Wellington Sen therefore, 676 00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:03,480 Speaker 3: I think since one hundred it's one hundred and twenty years, 677 00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:06,960 Speaker 3: since nineteen oh five, with a brief moment moment for 678 00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 3: a few years where we didn't have and then it 679 00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:10,760 Speaker 3: came back. So anyway, that's the one I think we 680 00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:12,800 Speaker 3: should bring back, just for old times sake. Why not 681 00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:15,440 Speaker 3: four away from five? Now, you want to see this 682 00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:18,240 Speaker 3: luxury hotel that they're building in Queenstown.

What it is is thirty seven 687 00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:34,760 Speaker 3: ultra high end residences across ten architecturally designed villas. So 688 00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:37,080 Speaker 3: you're gonna have your junior suite, which is like two 689 00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 3: hundred and ninety square meters. That's enormous. That's bigger than 690 00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:45,200 Speaker 3: a normal house. A junior suite, three bedrooms. Each of 691 00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:48,480 Speaker 3: them will have their own bathrooms, two terraces, two sparpools, 692 00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:51,440 Speaker 3: two sparpools, because sometimes you don't want to spar with 693 00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:52,960 Speaker 3: the other person that you're there with, you know, or 694 00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:55,520 Speaker 3: you might want to. Maybe you've got like teenage children 695 00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:57,719 Speaker 3: and they suck, so you don't want to sit with them, 696 00:31:57,760 --> 00:31:58,960 Speaker 3: so you put them in that spar pool and you 697 00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:01,560 Speaker 3: sit in the other spar pool. Dual living areas as well, 698 00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:04,520 Speaker 3: for the same reason. Then you have the executive residences 699 00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:06,480 Speaker 3: that have four bedrooms and four on suites and that's 700 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:09,600 Speaker 3: six hundred and seventy square meters.

In response, Winston Peters has 726 00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:38,440 Speaker 3: said that our government will be spending the next few 727 00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:41,400 Speaker 3: weeks also considering whether to do the same. Robert Patman 728 00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 3: is a professor of international relations at Otaga University. 729 00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:46,280 Speaker 17: Hi, Robert, I'll get afternoon. 730 00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:47,680 Speaker 3: He should we also do this? 731 00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:54,000 Speaker 17: I think, well, it's at the moment my understanding in 732 00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:56,600 Speaker 17: the New Zealand position. If we're weighing up what to 733 00:33:56,680 --> 00:33:59,200 Speaker 17: do and it's not you know, and this has been 734 00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:01,480 Speaker 17: the position of the New Zealand governments for some time. 735 00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:04,600 Speaker 17: I think there's a danger of mismatch between the gravity 736 00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:07,760 Speaker 17: of the situation in Gaza and the West Bank and 737 00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:13,040 Speaker 17: New Zealand's government's wait and see response. And you know, 738 00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:16,840 Speaker 17: a number of our allies are committed to recognizing the 739 00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:21,200 Speaker 17: Palestinian state. More than one hundred and fifty countries have 740 00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:28,719 Speaker 17: already recognized the principle of Palestinian statehood. And the situation 741 00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:32,959 Speaker 17: is extremely grave at the moment, and it's quite clear 742 00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:36,880 Speaker 17: that the Netnahu government does not want a Palestinian state. 743 00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:40,360 Speaker 17: Mister net for the last twenty five years has opposed 744 00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:45,160 Speaker 17: the idea of political self determination for the Palestinians. It's 745 00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:50,400 Speaker 17: also a strategic issue. Do you does it weaken Hamas 746 00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:55,359 Speaker 17: by continuing this military conflict, this military onslaught against them, 747 00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:59,640 Speaker 17: or do you weaken their position by giving the majority 748 00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:01,840 Speaker 17: of the palace the Sinians who do not like Hamas 749 00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:06,720 Speaker 17: a peaceful pathway to achieving their national aspirations of a state. 750 00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:10,359 Speaker 17: So it is a strategic issue as well. It's not 751 00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:13,879 Speaker 17: just a question of political judgment. My fear is that 752 00:35:14,760 --> 00:35:15,719 Speaker 17: we're missing in the moment. 753 00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:20,520 Speaker 3: Does recognizing a state make this war stop? Does it 754 00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:22,320 Speaker 3: make the aid delivery happen? 755 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:27,960 Speaker 17: It doesn't, but it does send a message to Israel's 756 00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:30,600 Speaker 17: public that what's being done in its name is being 757 00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:34,960 Speaker 17: widely opposed by the rest of the world. Misternette and 758 00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:39,400 Speaker 17: Yahoo at the moment has never said since the appalling 759 00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:42,400 Speaker 17: terrorist attack of the seventh October, he was very reluctant 760 00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:45,680 Speaker 17: to say what the day after looks like? What we 761 00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:48,800 Speaker 17: now know what the day after looks like. It looks 762 00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:53,000 Speaker 17: like making gals are inhabitable and then near publican population 763 00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:57,160 Speaker 17: being expelled. He hasn't been. The Israeli leader has recently 764 00:35:57,160 --> 00:36:01,920 Speaker 17: announced that military a military offensive resume in Galza City, 765 00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:06,040 Speaker 17: which is currently inhabited by close to a million Palestinians, 766 00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:09,960 Speaker 17: many of whom have already been relocated ten times. Yeah, 767 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:12,759 Speaker 17: and that's going to have such a military campaign in 768 00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:15,919 Speaker 17: such a densely populated era is going to kill many 769 00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:16,840 Speaker 17: thousands of people. 770 00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:21,640 Speaker 3: Listen. Robert does, though, recognizing a Palestinian state not actually 771 00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:25,400 Speaker 3: strengthen Hamas's hand and make it least likely to stop 772 00:36:25,440 --> 00:36:25,839 Speaker 3: this war. 773 00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:29,560 Speaker 17: I don't think so, because the fact of the matter 774 00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:33,319 Speaker 17: is that trying to obliterate Hamas is purplicitly bolstering them. 775 00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:33,880 Speaker 3: Yeah. 776 00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:37,560 Speaker 17: I mean, in a sense, Israel is not more secure 777 00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:41,760 Speaker 17: after twenty two months of targeting Hamas. And the problem 778 00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:44,600 Speaker 17: is it hasn't targeted Hamas very well. It's killed a 779 00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:48,960 Speaker 17: lot of Palestinians who detest Hamas, and more than sixty 780 00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:52,200 Speaker 17: one thousand have been killed. This can't go on that. 781 00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:55,640 Speaker 17: The thing that really worries me, Heather, is that New 782 00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:59,520 Speaker 17: Zealand has always believed in the rule of law internationally 783 00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:03,920 Speaker 17: and the institution which has formal responsibility for stopping a 784 00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:09,279 Speaker 17: situation like this. The UN Security Council is impotent, Yeah, 785 00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:12,600 Speaker 17: and marginalize. And I do think that New Zealand should 786 00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:16,480 Speaker 17: be leading the charge along with Australia and in countries 787 00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:19,839 Speaker 17: like Canada and other small and Middle powers to say, 788 00:37:20,040 --> 00:37:22,759 Speaker 17: we can't have an impotent U N Security Council. We 789 00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:24,200 Speaker 17: have to restrict THEE. 790 00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:25,520 Speaker 3: We'll have you to leave it there, Robert, I really 791 00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:28,920 Speaker 3: appreciate you, expecting as always Robert Patman, international relations professor 792 00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:30,560 Speaker 3: at Otaga University. 793 00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:31,960 Speaker 4: Ever do for THEE. 794 00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:35,960 Speaker 3: Ellen yet another Pole has national behind Labor the Taxpayers Union. 795 00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:38,319 Speaker 3: Curier Pole has National sitting on thirty two, Labour on 796 00:37:38,360 --> 00:37:40,640 Speaker 3: thirty four.

I do notice 817 00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:27,600 Speaker 7: that the fact that the Treasury found that this government 818 00:38:27,640 --> 00:38:28,959 Speaker 7: have no credible. 819 00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:33,480 Speaker 3: Wining No, never mind, never mind, I'm dealing with this government. 820 00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:37,000 Speaker 3: Let's deal with you. You guys were warned multiple times 821 00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:39,880 Speaker 3: by Treasury to stop the spending, So why didn't you? 822 00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:45,000 Speaker 7: We chose to focus on saving people's lives. Very much 823 00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:45,640 Speaker 7: of that you. 824 00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:48,000 Speaker 3: Went way by, and they point out that about half 825 00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:49,640 Speaker 3: of the spending has got nothing to do with COVID. 826 00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:51,240 Speaker 3: It's just random stuff you liked. 827 00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:54,560 Speaker 7: The first announcement Kristofluxen made when he became leader of 828 00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:56,600 Speaker 7: the National Party was that he wanted the government to 829 00:38:56,600 --> 00:38:58,400 Speaker 7: spend more money on the COVID O. 830 00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:01,200 Speaker 3: Look, don't you worry. I'm pretty upset with him about that. 831 00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:03,480 Speaker 3: But what about you guys? You have got no economic 832 00:39:03,520 --> 00:39:04,600 Speaker 3: credibility now, have you. 833 00:39:05,360 --> 00:39:07,760 Speaker 7: Well, the current government are spending more money and borrowing 834 00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:08,839 Speaker 7: more money than we ever did. 835 00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:11,719 Speaker 3: Are you going to demote Willow Jean at the next reshuffle? 836 00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:12,919 Speaker 6: No? 837 00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:16,000 Speaker 7: I think Willow Jean should have replied to Erica Stanford 838 00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:18,239 Speaker 7: to tell her that, you know, she was going out 839 00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:20,160 Speaker 7: to consult with the sector before she wanted to meet 840 00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:23,680 Speaker 7: with her. I think Willow has absolutely admitted herself that 841 00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:25,360 Speaker 7: she could have handled that situation better. 842 00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:28,560 Speaker 3: Ok, you've got to explain something yet, Chippy. Either Willow 843 00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:31,960 Speaker 3: Jane is just iq impaired and couldn't see that this 844 00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:33,880 Speaker 3: might be a good idea to take this meeting, or 845 00:39:33,880 --> 00:39:35,839 Speaker 3: she just couldn't be bothered because she's lazy. So which 846 00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:36,480 Speaker 3: of the two is it? 847 00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:37,360 Speaker 4: No? 848 00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:39,600 Speaker 7: I totally reject that. When I tried to meet with 849 00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:43,520 Speaker 7: Nikki Kay when she was the national Predient was the 850 00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:46,520 Speaker 7: Ministry of Education, it took several months for us to 851 00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:49,120 Speaker 7: organize that meeting as well. We got there in the end, 852 00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:50,040 Speaker 7: and that was a good thing. 853 00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:52,840 Speaker 3: So why didn't Willow Jane take up the opportunity? What 854 00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:53,200 Speaker 3: was it? 855 00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:56,440 Speaker 7: Ohish she should have and I think she she has 856 00:39:56,719 --> 00:39:58,520 Speaker 7: admitted that she should have. It wasn't that she wasn't 857 00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:01,200 Speaker 7: intending to. I just think she didn't communicate whether at 858 00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:02,359 Speaker 7: the Stanford what she was doing. 859 00:40:02,920 --> 00:40:05,399 Speaker 3: Now, where are you on the matter of a Palestinian state? 860 00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:06,560 Speaker 3: Do we recognize it or not? 861 00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:09,560 Speaker 7: It's well in trudy time for New Zealand to recognize 862 00:40:09,560 --> 00:40:10,560 Speaker 7: a Palestinian state. 863 00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:13,120 Speaker 3: It's the right thing to do, and do we do 864 00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:13,920 Speaker 3: it in September. 865 00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:16,160 Speaker 7: I think we do it as soon as we can. 866 00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:18,640 Speaker 7: Other countries are doing it. New Zealand has always been 867 00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:20,640 Speaker 7: independent in these things. We shouldn't wait for the rest 868 00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:21,839 Speaker 7: of the world to do it so that we can 869 00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:24,880 Speaker 7: follow along behind. We should show some leadership and do 870 00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:25,319 Speaker 7: it now. 871 00:40:25,480 --> 00:40:28,760 Speaker 3: Okay, thanks very much, ship, We appreciated.

Does it sound nutty to 974 00:44:57,680 --> 00:45:00,160 Speaker 3: you that Shane Jones said in a speech yesterday that 975 00:45:00,160 --> 00:45:02,080 Speaker 3: New Zealand First is going to campaign at the next 976 00:45:02,080 --> 00:45:05,080 Speaker 3: selection to remove New Zealand from the Paris Climate Change Agreement. 977 00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:07,560 Speaker 3: Does that sound nutty to you? Because I reckon quite 978 00:45:07,600 --> 00:45:10,279 Speaker 3: a few people will hear that that he'll want to 979 00:45:10,280 --> 00:45:12,440 Speaker 3: pull us out of the Paris Agreement and think, oh, 980 00:45:12,520 --> 00:45:16,480 Speaker 3: that's a controversial thing to do. Actually, it isn't controversial 981 00:45:16,520 --> 00:45:18,759 Speaker 3: at all, because we are not going to meet our 982 00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:20,560 Speaker 3: target anyway. We're not going to be able to cut 983 00:45:20,600 --> 00:45:22,880 Speaker 3: our emissions enough by twenty fifty to be able to 984 00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:25,120 Speaker 3: do what we promised in that agreement. We know we're 985 00:45:25,160 --> 00:45:26,719 Speaker 3: not going to be able to because we're not even 986 00:45:26,760 --> 00:45:28,759 Speaker 3: going to be able to cut our emissions enough to 987 00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:31,160 Speaker 3: meet our first set of targets, which happen in five 988 00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:34,080 Speaker 3: years time. In twenty thirty, we will be so far 989 00:45:34,320 --> 00:45:36,880 Speaker 3: off our targets in five years time that we're going 990 00:45:36,920 --> 00:45:39,600 Speaker 3: to have to pay other countries about twenty four billion 991 00:45:39,640 --> 00:45:42,960 Speaker 3: dollars in order that they plant trees for us. That's 992 00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:45,000 Speaker 3: the deal. Basically, if you don't meet your target, you 993 00:45:45,080 --> 00:45:48,040 Speaker 3: pay for trees. By the way, we're also not going 994 00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:50,480 Speaker 3: to pay for the trees. We're simply going to ignore it. 995 00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:52,320 Speaker 3: If you listen to government ministers, we're just going to 996 00:45:52,360 --> 00:45:54,160 Speaker 3: ignore it and keep the money and go, oh, well, 997 00:45:54,360 --> 00:46:00,760 Speaker 3: that's what happens. Australia, the EU, India, Turkey, Russia, China, Brazil, 998 00:46:01,040 --> 00:46:03,640 Speaker 3: Saudi arabiaist goes on. None of them are going to 999 00:46:03,719 --> 00:46:06,560 Speaker 3: meet their targets. That's just a short list of countless 1000 00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:08,879 Speaker 3: countries that will not meet their targets. The US has 1001 00:46:09,040 --> 00:46:11,680 Speaker 3: completely pulled out of the Paris Agreement. In New Zealand 1002 00:46:11,680 --> 00:46:14,480 Speaker 3: has dropped its twenty thirty targets, UBS Bank has pulled 1003 00:46:14,520 --> 00:46:17,080 Speaker 3: out of the Climate Banking Alliance, Sweden has dropped its 1004 00:46:17,080 --> 00:46:19,320 Speaker 3: climate change air travel tags, and just look around the world. 1005 00:46:19,640 --> 00:46:23,760 Speaker 3: Everybody is starting to pull away from these targets because 1006 00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:26,719 Speaker 3: they simply cannot meet them. So we can stay. I mean, 1007 00:46:26,719 --> 00:46:28,879 Speaker 3: we've got two options, right we can we can either 1008 00:46:29,080 --> 00:46:31,480 Speaker 3: pull out or we can stay in the Paris Agreement 1009 00:46:31,680 --> 00:46:34,600 Speaker 3: to make people feel better, just stay signed up, but 1010 00:46:34,680 --> 00:46:37,120 Speaker 3: ignore the goal. That happens in politics quite a lot. 1011 00:46:37,160 --> 00:46:39,440 Speaker 3: That's not that unusual. It's like when Jasin Dardoun set 1012 00:46:39,440 --> 00:46:42,400 Speaker 3: a goal of zero suicides in New Zealand, never gonna happen, 1013 00:46:42,560 --> 00:46:44,880 Speaker 3: but just makes people feel nice when you say stuff 1014 00:46:44,920 --> 00:46:46,400 Speaker 3: like that, Or when we said we were going to 1015 00:46:46,440 --> 00:46:48,520 Speaker 3: be smoke free by twenty twenty five. We're never really 1016 00:46:48,560 --> 00:46:50,400 Speaker 3: going to be smoke free by twenty twenty five. But 1017 00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:52,200 Speaker 3: you just you say you're going to do things and 1018 00:46:52,200 --> 00:46:54,360 Speaker 3: it makes people feel nice, or we can just be 1019 00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:56,920 Speaker 3: honest about it and pull out. Either way, when we 1020 00:46:57,000 --> 00:46:59,960 Speaker 3: take the fields out of climate change, like you feel 1021 00:47:00,120 --> 00:47:01,960 Speaker 3: you've got to do something when you take the feels 1022 00:47:01,960 --> 00:47:04,040 Speaker 3: out and you actually just think about the reality of 1023 00:47:04,080 --> 00:47:07,560 Speaker 3: what's going on here, Shane Jones doesn't seem so nutty anymore, 1024 00:47:07,600 --> 00:47:07,840 Speaker 3: does he. 1025 00:47:08,800 --> 00:47:10,960 Speaker 4: Heather Duplessy Ellen so Ans came. 1026 00:47:10,840 --> 00:47:12,600 Speaker 3: Into the office today and he had a little sticker 1027 00:47:12,640 --> 00:47:14,200 Speaker 3: on his arm, you know, in the crook of the elbow, 1028 00:47:14,239 --> 00:47:16,279 Speaker 3: one of those round stickers, and he'd been giving blood again, 1029 00:47:16,320 --> 00:47:18,279 Speaker 3: and I said to him again, what are you doing 1030 00:47:18,280 --> 00:47:20,120 Speaker 3: giving blood again? And try to spin me the story 1031 00:47:20,160 --> 00:47:23,120 Speaker 3: about sort of having like a kind heart and having 1032 00:47:23,600 --> 00:47:25,879 Speaker 3: some opozzle or something like that and wanting to save 1033 00:47:25,880 --> 00:47:28,880 Speaker 3: the babies. The truth is, with a little bit of digging, 1034 00:47:29,160 --> 00:47:31,080 Speaker 3: we got to the bottom of what's going on here. 1035 00:47:31,400 --> 00:47:34,359 Speaker 3: Did you know that if you give blood you get 1036 00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:37,200 Speaker 3: little treats for giving blood? So if you do like 1037 00:47:37,400 --> 00:47:39,840 Speaker 3: your first donation as this doesn't happen to everybody in 1038 00:47:39,880 --> 00:47:43,040 Speaker 3: their first donation, does it it does? Seriously? Yeah, okay, 1039 00:47:43,320 --> 00:47:45,200 Speaker 3: you go give your first donation of blood. Oh, this 1040 00:47:45,239 --> 00:47:47,160 Speaker 3: is me helping the country out. You need to go 1041 00:47:47,200 --> 00:47:49,440 Speaker 3: and give your first donation of blood and you get 1042 00:47:49,480 --> 00:47:52,480 Speaker 3: yourself a pair of socks. That's your reward. When you 1043 00:47:52,560 --> 00:47:55,200 Speaker 3: do your second donation, you get a key ring.

Fifth one, you get a travel mug. 1050 00:48:08,160 --> 00:48:11,120 Speaker 3: This is where it starts getting really good.

He says, the workshops is 1117 00:51:14,560 --> 00:51:16,280 Speaker 3: a different matter. Are you turning up to the workshops 1118 00:51:16,280 --> 00:51:16,640 Speaker 3: as well? 1119 00:51:17,480 --> 00:51:21,000 Speaker 6: So we go online for the workshops. We may turn 1120 00:51:21,120 --> 00:51:23,640 Speaker 6: up for the workshops, but I know from my perspective, 1121 00:51:23,760 --> 00:51:27,319 Speaker 6: if I don't end up going to the workshops, if 1122 00:51:27,360 --> 00:51:31,759 Speaker 6: I'm doing other council business, I take the time to 1123 00:51:31,920 --> 00:51:35,160 Speaker 6: talk to the staff or get people to bring me 1124 00:51:35,239 --> 00:51:39,000 Speaker 6: back the information.

So I don't know which tangent he's 1129 00:51:51,360 --> 00:51:54,040 Speaker 6: trying to get on, but you know, playing the racist 1130 00:51:54,080 --> 00:51:57,280 Speaker 6: card that that is not the card that he should 1131 00:51:57,320 --> 00:52:01,560 Speaker 6: be playing now, So you know that's But even the workshops, 1132 00:52:01,800 --> 00:52:04,600 Speaker 6: what happens is that there are discussions. I go to 1133 00:52:04,680 --> 00:52:07,799 Speaker 6: those workshops, whether they be in person or online by 1134 00:52:08,040 --> 00:52:11,040 Speaker 6: tend and if I don't, I end up going back 1135 00:52:11,080 --> 00:52:14,360 Speaker 6: to the staff or getting information off Nexus, which is 1136 00:52:14,400 --> 00:52:19,640 Speaker 6: the app that council uses to have all the information. 1137 00:52:19,840 --> 00:52:21,560 Speaker 6: So I don't know where he's going. 1138 00:52:21,680 --> 00:52:23,120 Speaker 3: You guy's going to be able to sort this out. 1139 00:52:24,200 --> 00:52:26,799 Speaker 6: Oh not with Wayne, because Wayne is the type of 1140 00:52:26,800 --> 00:52:30,040 Speaker 6: person that wants his way in no way. That's it's 1141 00:52:30,280 --> 00:52:33,479 Speaker 6: it's either his way or the highway. So we won't 1142 00:52:33,520 --> 00:52:36,000 Speaker 6: sort it up this way because he'll he'll just keep 1143 00:52:36,000 --> 00:52:39,040 Speaker 6: on using it because it's election and he wants his 1144 00:52:39,280 --> 00:52:43,320 Speaker 6: yes people to be around that table, and he convinced, 1145 00:52:43,320 --> 00:52:46,560 Speaker 6: obviously some people to run under his ticket. I'll be 1146 00:52:46,640 --> 00:52:49,239 Speaker 6: watching to see how much he puts into their campaign 1147 00:52:50,400 --> 00:52:53,319 Speaker 6: when the financial and the expenses come out. That's what 1148 00:52:53,320 --> 00:52:53,879 Speaker 6: I'll be doing. 1149 00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:55,719 Speaker 3: Well, Thanks very much for your time. Beast of luck 1150 00:52:55,760 --> 00:52:59,000 Speaker 3: with everything. El Philipina South Aakland councilor attacked by waynebro 1151 00:52:59,120 --> 00:53:00,879 Speaker 3: We asked Wayne to come on show, but Wayne didn't 1152 00:53:00,880 --> 00:53:03,120 Speaker 3: want to come on the show. Hither the cost of 1153 00:53:03,120 --> 00:53:05,840 Speaker 3: the Paris Agreement is going to be overtaken by reality 1154 00:53:06,040 --> 00:53:08,879 Speaker 3: and will collapse internationally. I agree with you, Dennis. It's 1155 00:53:08,920 --> 00:53:10,080 Speaker 3: coming up twenty away from six. 1156 00:53:10,920 --> 00:53:14,920 Speaker 1: The Huddle with New Zealand Southeby's International Realty Unique Homes 1157 00:53:15,080 --> 00:53:16,080 Speaker 1: Uniquely for you. 1158 00:53:16,280 --> 00:53:18,120 Speaker 3: I'm the huddle with us this evening. We have Joseph 1159 00:53:18,120 --> 00:53:21,240 Speaker 3: Bcganney CEO at Child Fund, and Trisherson at Sheerson Willis 1160 00:53:21,239 --> 00:53:22,080 Speaker 3: PR Hello. 1161 00:53:21,840 --> 00:53:23,920 Speaker 18: You too, Hello, Hello, Hello Josie. 1162 00:53:23,920 --> 00:53:26,080 Speaker 3: Do we need to recognize the state of Palestine? 1163 00:53:26,440 --> 00:53:29,239 Speaker 18: Well, we're on the ground there with child from We've 1164 00:53:29,280 --> 00:53:31,400 Speaker 18: got you know, local people on the ground, people of 1165 00:53:31,600 --> 00:53:35,239 Speaker 18: staff have been killed. It's awful, Heather, and I think 1166 00:53:35,280 --> 00:53:38,400 Speaker 18: the only way that we're going to get any movement 1167 00:53:38,520 --> 00:53:42,279 Speaker 18: forward on this is to recognize two state solutions. Now, 1168 00:53:42,920 --> 00:53:45,320 Speaker 18: I mean the problem with that, Yes, two thirds of 1169 00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:48,440 Speaker 18: the UN countries now recognize Palestine as a state. The 1170 00:53:48,520 --> 00:53:50,320 Speaker 18: definition of a state is that you have to have 1171 00:53:50,360 --> 00:53:54,120 Speaker 18: a stable population and you have to have a government 1172 00:53:54,160 --> 00:53:57,400 Speaker 18: that's able to govern well. It doesn't have that. And 1173 00:53:57,480 --> 00:54:00,719 Speaker 18: of course now France and Britain Australia have recognized Palestine. 1174 00:54:00,840 --> 00:54:04,719 Speaker 18: The problem though, is that neither Benjamin ett Yahu or 1175 00:54:04,960 --> 00:54:09,359 Speaker 18: the leaders of Hermas want to recognize a two state solutions. 1176 00:54:09,400 --> 00:54:10,400 Speaker 3: So I don't know that. 1177 00:54:10,640 --> 00:54:13,359 Speaker 18: I think symbolically it's going to be really important, and yes, 1178 00:54:13,400 --> 00:54:16,600 Speaker 18: I think we should and if it helps to put 1179 00:54:16,640 --> 00:54:19,880 Speaker 18: pressure on Israel that ultimately it's only going to be 1180 00:54:19,920 --> 00:54:23,440 Speaker 18: solved with having some kind of peacekeeping force in there 1181 00:54:23,480 --> 00:54:28,000 Speaker 18: that's led by Arab states, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Jordan. You know, 1182 00:54:28,120 --> 00:54:31,640 Speaker 18: it needs to be a pa Palestinian authority, not Hermus. 1183 00:54:31,719 --> 00:54:35,279 Speaker 18: It must exclude Hermus. Canada's made all these conditions right. 1184 00:54:35,400 --> 00:54:37,719 Speaker 18: One is that Hamas has excluded there has to be 1185 00:54:37,760 --> 00:54:40,400 Speaker 18: a commitment to democratic elections in twenty twenty six and 1186 00:54:40,440 --> 00:54:42,640 Speaker 18: so on. So there's a lot of detail there, But 1187 00:54:42,680 --> 00:54:44,560 Speaker 18: I think symbolically it will help us. 1188 00:54:44,480 --> 00:54:47,520 Speaker 3: Get the aid in treasure. I agree, right, I think 1189 00:54:47,520 --> 00:54:49,760 Speaker 3: the symbolism is important. But why are we not talking 1190 00:54:49,840 --> 00:54:52,680 Speaker 3: about flooding the area with aid? Why is that not 1191 00:54:52,719 --> 00:54:54,439 Speaker 3: where the effort is being put in, Because that's actually 1192 00:54:54,440 --> 00:54:56,800 Speaker 3: going to save lives. Recognizing a state of Palestine's saving 1193 00:54:56,800 --> 00:54:59,439 Speaker 3: no one's life. 1194 00:55:00,080 --> 00:55:02,000 Speaker 21: That's right, I mean, I think that I think there 1195 00:55:02,000 --> 00:55:06,040 Speaker 21: are two There are two things. Though what we've what 1196 00:55:06,080 --> 00:55:09,839 Speaker 21: we have seen is that the getting aid in that 1197 00:55:10,000 --> 00:55:14,120 Speaker 21: situation is so disastrous at the moment, and unfortunately, and 1198 00:55:14,160 --> 00:55:16,080 Speaker 21: I heard a report on this the other week, of 1199 00:55:16,680 --> 00:55:20,560 Speaker 21: flying in aid over the top, that has become more 1200 00:55:20,680 --> 00:55:26,239 Speaker 21: symbolic than actually useful to people on the ground recognizing 1201 00:55:26,280 --> 00:55:30,000 Speaker 21: the two state solution. It is symbolic, but sometimes with 1202 00:55:30,320 --> 00:55:35,200 Speaker 21: big intransigent issues like this, symbols matter. And obviously that 1203 00:55:35,239 --> 00:55:37,720 Speaker 21: recognition is going to align us with our key allies 1204 00:55:37,800 --> 00:55:41,880 Speaker 21: and it's going to shift the moral debate. I agree 1205 00:55:41,920 --> 00:55:45,840 Speaker 21: with the approach being taken actually by Winston Peters, which 1206 00:55:45,880 --> 00:55:49,280 Speaker 21: is there is no upside for New Zealand in being 1207 00:55:49,600 --> 00:55:55,000 Speaker 21: you know, first here or rushing into this. We are 1208 00:55:55,239 --> 00:55:59,640 Speaker 21: a very small nation and our support is symbolic. But 1209 00:56:00,440 --> 00:56:03,080 Speaker 21: if we make a misstep on something like this, given 1210 00:56:03,120 --> 00:56:05,920 Speaker 21: the sensitivities around the world, it could have an outsized 1211 00:56:06,080 --> 00:56:08,000 Speaker 21: impact on my view. 1212 00:56:08,920 --> 00:56:11,000 Speaker 18: Can I just say, though, what the thing about France 1213 00:56:11,040 --> 00:56:14,320 Speaker 18: and Britain and now Australia. But France and Britain agreeing 1214 00:56:14,360 --> 00:56:16,600 Speaker 18: to recognize the state of Palestine. That's the that's the 1215 00:56:16,640 --> 00:56:19,719 Speaker 18: Security Council, those are the permanent members of the UN. 1216 00:56:19,800 --> 00:56:23,160 Speaker 18: That's quite significant. That's different to two thirds of the 1217 00:56:23,160 --> 00:56:26,799 Speaker 18: General Assembly recognizing Palestine. And I think, I know you're 1218 00:56:26,840 --> 00:56:29,880 Speaker 18: connecting it with aid and I know from our experience 1219 00:56:30,000 --> 00:56:31,879 Speaker 18: we will be able to get more aid in there 1220 00:56:32,040 --> 00:56:35,880 Speaker 18: if Palestine is recognized as a state, because then you 1221 00:56:36,000 --> 00:56:39,040 Speaker 18: start to get Egypt, Jordan and so on involved. You 1222 00:56:39,160 --> 00:56:42,120 Speaker 18: start to have a kind of political diplomatic process that 1223 00:56:42,200 --> 00:56:45,879 Speaker 18: will start as a state. You know, the Palestine sits 1224 00:56:45,880 --> 00:56:48,400 Speaker 18: at the UN, but it sits there in a weird. 1225 00:56:48,320 --> 00:56:51,080 Speaker 3: But we're talking about about something in September. These people 1226 00:56:51,160 --> 00:56:52,200 Speaker 3: need eed now, Yeah. 1227 00:56:52,040 --> 00:56:54,480 Speaker 18: But if you have, if you have members of this 1228 00:56:54,680 --> 00:56:56,440 Speaker 18: of the of the permanent members of the UN and 1229 00:56:56,480 --> 00:57:00,560 Speaker 18: Security Council recognizing Palestine, suddenly Egypt and joy who do 1230 00:57:00,640 --> 00:57:04,120 Speaker 18: not want Palestinians to come to their countries will say okay, 1231 00:57:04,440 --> 00:57:07,160 Speaker 18: two state solution, will get involved, will will help to 1232 00:57:07,200 --> 00:57:08,080 Speaker 18: secure the border. 1233 00:57:07,880 --> 00:57:10,120 Speaker 3: And get Aidan. All right, Trish, is there anything you 1234 00:57:10,160 --> 00:57:11,799 Speaker 3: wanted to say? I feel like you've got. 1235 00:57:11,719 --> 00:57:15,240 Speaker 21: Well, no, no, no, it's fine. I mean Josie's obviously 1236 00:57:15,239 --> 00:57:18,160 Speaker 21: the specialists in this area. But what I would say is, 1237 00:57:18,440 --> 00:57:21,840 Speaker 21: you know, in all the commentary that I have listened to, 1238 00:57:22,600 --> 00:57:26,960 Speaker 21: the issue with getting Aiden again is meting now who 1239 00:57:27,160 --> 00:57:32,000 Speaker 21: in the Israelis And unfortunately for the israelis the fact 1240 00:57:32,040 --> 00:57:35,480 Speaker 21: that all of these countries now are wanting to recognize 1241 00:57:35,520 --> 00:57:38,840 Speaker 21: a two state solution. It is a symbol that Israel 1242 00:57:38,880 --> 00:57:44,440 Speaker 21: has completely lost the narrative on this and ultimately, in 1243 00:57:44,480 --> 00:57:47,760 Speaker 21: my view, that doesn't Obviously that doesn't help people who 1244 00:57:47,760 --> 00:57:52,800 Speaker 21: are starving now, but it may be the lever that 1245 00:57:52,960 --> 00:57:56,160 Speaker 21: gets us to a better long term solution for people 1246 00:57:56,160 --> 00:57:56,640 Speaker 21: of Gaza. 1247 00:57:57,040 --> 00:57:58,760 Speaker 3: All Right, guys, we'll take a break, come back, talk 1248 00:57:58,760 --> 00:58:02,720 Speaker 3: about the poll. Sixteen away from. 1249 00:58:01,440 --> 00:58:05,240 Speaker 1: The huddle, with New Zealand Southby's International Realty the ones 1250 00:58:05,320 --> 00:58:06,800 Speaker 1: for unmasked results. 1251 00:58:07,120 --> 00:58:09,760 Speaker 3: Right, you're back with the huddle Trisharson and Joseph Agaranni Triush. 1252 00:58:09,800 --> 00:58:12,160 Speaker 3: Do you think that the National Party, but in particular 1253 00:58:12,200 --> 00:58:13,840 Speaker 3: and the government should be worried about what they're seeing 1254 00:58:13,880 --> 00:58:14,360 Speaker 3: in the polls? 1255 00:58:15,800 --> 00:58:16,480 Speaker 6: Yes, I do. 1256 00:58:18,120 --> 00:58:21,320 Speaker 21: I don't know that any of us would have predicted 1257 00:58:21,440 --> 00:58:24,800 Speaker 21: that this government would be polling where it is at 1258 00:58:24,800 --> 00:58:28,160 Speaker 21: this time in the electoral cycle. They are only halfway 1259 00:58:28,240 --> 00:58:32,720 Speaker 21: through their first term, and when you consider what they 1260 00:58:32,960 --> 00:58:36,720 Speaker 21: came in off the back of the feeling across the 1261 00:58:36,760 --> 00:58:40,720 Speaker 21: electorate about what had happened under the Labor government, what 1262 00:58:40,840 --> 00:58:45,720 Speaker 21: it had meant for their individual's own back pockets, I think, 1263 00:58:46,040 --> 00:58:48,800 Speaker 21: you know, I would have expected National to be polling 1264 00:58:49,000 --> 00:58:53,760 Speaker 21: a lot higher at this point because consider two factors. 1265 00:58:53,920 --> 00:58:57,240 Speaker 21: Number one, we have absolutely seen nothing to change our 1266 00:58:57,280 --> 00:59:01,240 Speaker 21: minds about neighbour's stewardship of the economy or where they 1267 00:59:01,320 --> 00:59:04,880 Speaker 21: might head in the future. And although this has been 1268 00:59:04,920 --> 00:59:09,959 Speaker 21: a challenging time for National, you know, unfortunately for them, 1269 00:59:10,200 --> 00:59:16,800 Speaker 21: they should be the party of good economics. But I'm 1270 00:59:16,840 --> 00:59:19,040 Speaker 21: just you know, trying to put my finger on kind 1271 00:59:19,080 --> 00:59:21,720 Speaker 21: of what's going wrong here. And it's easy to make 1272 00:59:21,760 --> 00:59:25,600 Speaker 21: this sound simplistic, but in my view, one of the 1273 00:59:25,680 --> 00:59:30,880 Speaker 21: problems that we have got is because of this the 1274 00:59:30,920 --> 00:59:34,280 Speaker 21: cost of living crisis, and it's such a near term issue. 1275 00:59:34,720 --> 00:59:38,640 Speaker 21: What the government is really missing is a legacy focus. 1276 00:59:39,160 --> 00:59:41,040 Speaker 21: If you think about the governments who have come in 1277 00:59:41,120 --> 00:59:43,920 Speaker 21: off the back of very difficult economic times, I'm thinking 1278 00:59:43,920 --> 00:59:46,840 Speaker 21: about the eighty four Labor government, and I'm thinking about 1279 00:59:47,840 --> 00:59:51,520 Speaker 21: you know, the Rich Richardson time in the nineties and 1280 00:59:51,560 --> 00:59:55,560 Speaker 21: even the Helen Clark government. One of the factors that 1281 00:59:55,600 --> 00:59:59,200 Speaker 21: they have all had in common was a legacy focused. 1282 01:00:00,040 --> 01:00:02,360 Speaker 21: Either of them govern just for the next new cycle 1283 01:00:02,440 --> 01:00:05,880 Speaker 21: or the election, they all of those had an aim 1284 01:00:05,960 --> 01:00:08,800 Speaker 21: to leave the economic architecture in better shape for the 1285 01:00:08,840 --> 01:00:13,160 Speaker 21: next generation. In my view, this is what's going wrong 1286 01:00:13,200 --> 01:00:16,120 Speaker 21: for national and where that is really the robbers hitting 1287 01:00:16,160 --> 01:00:21,400 Speaker 21: the road here is a fallback into populism and the 1288 01:00:21,440 --> 01:00:24,600 Speaker 21: problem with that is it's all about us and them, 1289 01:00:25,200 --> 01:00:27,200 Speaker 21: and in making it about us and them, you are 1290 01:00:27,280 --> 01:00:30,120 Speaker 21: losing core parts of your voter base. 1291 01:00:30,520 --> 01:00:34,160 Speaker 18: Hang on, Josie, Yeah, I mean I think potentially they 1292 01:00:34,280 --> 01:00:37,880 Speaker 18: have a legacy issue around the NCAA stuff, and I think, 1293 01:00:38,120 --> 01:00:40,120 Speaker 18: you know, the Colin you rode at the weekend haved 1294 01:00:40,360 --> 01:00:45,000 Speaker 18: on Erica Stanford that there's a bold, courageous politician who's 1295 01:00:45,040 --> 01:00:47,000 Speaker 18: going right, I'm going to blow it up and set 1296 01:00:47,000 --> 01:00:49,040 Speaker 18: it up again. I'm also going to bring people with me. 1297 01:00:49,120 --> 01:00:51,320 Speaker 3: So why don't they have the courage? Why does Nikola 1298 01:00:51,360 --> 01:00:53,960 Speaker 3: Willis and Chris Luxon in particular, and you could probably 1299 01:00:54,040 --> 01:00:56,080 Speaker 3: chuck Chris Bishop in there, but those people who are 1300 01:00:56,080 --> 01:00:59,200 Speaker 3: involved in finance, why do they not have the courage 1301 01:00:59,200 --> 01:01:01,720 Speaker 3: with the economy that Erica Stanford has with education? 1302 01:01:01,840 --> 01:01:03,640 Speaker 18: Yeah, and I would put christ Bishop in there for 1303 01:01:03,960 --> 01:01:05,880 Speaker 18: getting rid of road taxes. There's a whole bunch of 1304 01:01:05,920 --> 01:01:08,440 Speaker 18: things that he's done. I think part of the problem 1305 01:01:08,480 --> 01:01:11,760 Speaker 18: is that the economy is in a resetting mode. You know, 1306 01:01:11,800 --> 01:01:14,640 Speaker 18: we've had high inflation. You could argue the government and 1307 01:01:14,680 --> 01:01:16,800 Speaker 18: I do, that they shouldn't have done a tax cut 1308 01:01:16,800 --> 01:01:18,760 Speaker 18: when they first came in because that's slowed down the 1309 01:01:18,800 --> 01:01:22,040 Speaker 18: recovery because the only way you do tinkering, but. 1310 01:01:22,160 --> 01:01:26,160 Speaker 3: The implification and when this doesn't work in cech all gone. Yeah, 1311 01:01:26,200 --> 01:01:27,040 Speaker 3: that's massive. 1312 01:01:27,480 --> 01:01:31,400 Speaker 18: Why but hold on, there's one thing though, hold On, 1313 01:01:31,480 --> 01:01:33,320 Speaker 18: Trish is one thing though that I think is really important. 1314 01:01:33,360 --> 01:01:37,720 Speaker 18: It's a Treasury report that said that people's wages compared 1315 01:01:37,760 --> 01:01:40,160 Speaker 18: to the cost of living are now back to twenty 1316 01:01:40,200 --> 01:01:44,000 Speaker 18: twenty levels. So that's the major problem that the government has, 1317 01:01:44,120 --> 01:01:44,600 Speaker 18: is that. 1318 01:01:44,480 --> 01:01:48,080 Speaker 3: They've they've got a thousand, they've got myriad problems in 1319 01:01:48,080 --> 01:01:49,960 Speaker 3: the economy. What were you going to say, trash. 1320 01:01:50,280 --> 01:01:52,600 Speaker 21: I was going to say, and to deal with that again, 1321 01:01:52,760 --> 01:01:55,520 Speaker 21: just you know, really lifting this back up. I think 1322 01:01:55,560 --> 01:02:00,000 Speaker 21: the the other missing parts that some of those big 1323 01:02:00,480 --> 01:02:04,560 Speaker 21: transformation or reforming governments had. Number one is strategic clarity. 1324 01:02:04,760 --> 01:02:07,360 Speaker 21: They didn't drift. They came into office and they had 1325 01:02:07,400 --> 01:02:11,160 Speaker 21: a clear theory of the problem, a coherent set of solutions, 1326 01:02:11,200 --> 01:02:14,720 Speaker 21: and the politic the political will to execute, just like 1327 01:02:14,920 --> 01:02:21,560 Speaker 21: Erica Stanford. We're getting I'm excited. And the second one 1328 01:02:21,720 --> 01:02:26,000 Speaker 21: is political courage. So as an example, if you think 1329 01:02:26,080 --> 01:02:30,080 Speaker 21: of Roger Douglas, he was willing to make unpopular decisions 1330 01:02:30,080 --> 01:02:34,400 Speaker 21: in pursuit of what he saw was in the national interest. Yes, 1331 01:02:34,680 --> 01:02:38,120 Speaker 21: and he had to resist intense pressure on that. And 1332 01:02:38,160 --> 01:02:40,640 Speaker 21: in my view, that is what we're missing at the 1333 01:02:40,720 --> 01:02:45,480 Speaker 21: moment as well. You have to govern for future current 1334 01:02:45,560 --> 01:02:50,080 Speaker 21: but future generations, and if you were just governing based 1335 01:02:50,120 --> 01:02:54,000 Speaker 21: on focus grouping, you are not going to tackle the 1336 01:02:54,080 --> 01:02:55,120 Speaker 21: really big problem. 1337 01:02:55,200 --> 01:02:57,400 Speaker 18: And a big example of that on the labour side 1338 01:02:57,400 --> 01:03:00,160 Speaker 18: would of course being Michael Joseph Savage right where you know, 1339 01:03:00,200 --> 01:03:03,480 Speaker 18: you had a whole state house building building program, you 1340 01:03:03,480 --> 01:03:05,600 Speaker 18: had a whole welfare state setup that we still have 1341 01:03:05,680 --> 01:03:09,800 Speaker 18: today and that has bipartis courage, sport right courage. But yeah, 1342 01:03:09,840 --> 01:03:12,000 Speaker 18: but I would also as another example, I would use 1343 01:03:12,080 --> 01:03:16,120 Speaker 18: David Seymour, you know, attacking his own government, taking national 1344 01:03:16,320 --> 01:03:18,880 Speaker 18: for not being bold enough around reforms of the public sector. 1345 01:03:19,160 --> 01:03:21,120 Speaker 18: And you'd have to say, Nashville came in and went, right, 1346 01:03:21,160 --> 01:03:23,560 Speaker 18: we're going to fire a whole lot of public servants. 1347 01:03:23,760 --> 01:03:24,960 Speaker 3: Well, you know, tough on them. 1348 01:03:25,000 --> 01:03:28,640 Speaker 18: But it's also the easy bit politically to reduce numbers. 1349 01:03:28,680 --> 01:03:31,080 Speaker 18: But what you have to do is exactly what Trisha's saying, 1350 01:03:31,120 --> 01:03:34,040 Speaker 18: is thinking, what is the public service for? Why has 1351 01:03:34,040 --> 01:03:37,040 Speaker 18: it not been able to deliver good policy? Why hasn't 1352 01:03:37,040 --> 01:03:40,200 Speaker 18: it been able to implement quickly urgently? And to do 1353 01:03:40,320 --> 01:03:43,920 Speaker 18: those things? You need to completely rethink the public sector. Yes, 1354 01:03:44,400 --> 01:03:48,200 Speaker 18: divide implementation strategy. Right, Thank you, ladies, it's wonderful to 1355 01:03:48,200 --> 01:03:48,920 Speaker 18: talk to the pair of you. 1356 01:03:48,920 --> 01:03:53,200 Speaker 3: Really appreciated. Joseph Gani treshurs in our hut all this evening, It's. 1357 01:03:53,040 --> 01:03:56,280 Speaker 1: The Heather Duplessy All and Drive Full Show podcast on 1358 01:03:56,480 --> 01:03:58,920 Speaker 1: my Art Radio powered by News Talk ZB. 1359 01:04:01,120 --> 01:04:04,440 Speaker 3: Hither how does recognizing Palestine help the Palestinians and Gasa 1360 01:04:04,480 --> 01:04:06,360 Speaker 3: all the West Bank? Who's going to govern the state 1361 01:04:06,920 --> 01:04:08,840 Speaker 3: when there is no defined borders as being run by 1362 01:04:08,880 --> 01:04:11,400 Speaker 3: a terrorist organization whose stated aim is the elimination of 1363 01:04:11,440 --> 01:04:13,600 Speaker 3: Israel and who do not themselves want a two state solution, 1364 01:04:13,680 --> 01:04:16,880 Speaker 3: as it's all just virtue signaling. Mark fairpoint. Look, I 1365 01:04:16,920 --> 01:04:20,680 Speaker 3: mean the difficulty with this is that recognizing the state 1366 01:04:20,680 --> 01:04:22,560 Speaker 3: of Palestine does not put food in the balies of 1367 01:04:22,560 --> 01:04:24,240 Speaker 3: the children, which has got to be the primary thing. 1368 01:04:24,240 --> 01:04:26,400 Speaker 3: And also we're waiting till September, and there are four 1369 01:04:26,440 --> 01:04:28,680 Speaker 3: weeks to go till we had September, and you know 1370 01:04:28,720 --> 01:04:31,240 Speaker 3: this is four weeks is a long time when you're starving. 1371 01:04:32,320 --> 01:04:34,960 Speaker 3: So I see your frush. I'm frustrated by this as well, 1372 01:04:34,960 --> 01:04:36,560 Speaker 3: and with all of the questions about how on earth 1373 01:04:36,600 --> 01:04:38,160 Speaker 3: do you how on earth do you even do this 1374 01:04:38,640 --> 01:04:40,720 Speaker 3: if there is no leadership and so on. I totally 1375 01:04:40,760 --> 01:04:43,800 Speaker 3: take the point, but it is also a part. It 1376 01:04:43,880 --> 01:04:47,200 Speaker 3: is also in some way about sending benyamanett Ya, who 1377 01:04:47,200 --> 01:04:50,280 Speaker 3: are very clear message. Remember what I told you a 1378 01:04:50,320 --> 01:04:53,520 Speaker 3: couple of weeks ago, maybe last week. Apparently, according to 1379 01:04:53,560 --> 01:04:56,040 Speaker 3: people who are reporting from that part of the world, 1380 01:04:56,280 --> 01:04:59,800 Speaker 3: apparently he has no idea. He and his cabinet really 1381 01:04:59,800 --> 01:05:02,040 Speaker 3: do not understand how frustrated the world is about this. 1382 01:05:02,080 --> 01:05:05,440 Speaker 3: They are completely kind of cut off. The officials, the diplomats, 1383 01:05:05,440 --> 01:05:07,120 Speaker 3: they understand they have to deal with all of the 1384 01:05:07,600 --> 01:05:10,000 Speaker 3: drama and stuff. But those guys in Israel and the 1385 01:05:10,000 --> 01:05:12,040 Speaker 3: cabinet are sitting there going everything's fine. We've got the 1386 01:05:12,040 --> 01:05:14,280 Speaker 3: support of the Americans. It'll be fine, and so for them, 1387 01:05:14,320 --> 01:05:16,080 Speaker 3: it's kind of a good idea to get this message 1388 01:05:16,080 --> 01:05:18,520 Speaker 3: sent to them. Anyway, Listen, we're gonna talk to Nikola 1389 01:05:18,520 --> 01:05:20,439 Speaker 3: Willa's short issues with us. Can we just talk about 1390 01:05:20,440 --> 01:05:24,680 Speaker 3: sunscreen really quickly? There is an anti sunscreen movement? Did 1391 01:05:24,680 --> 01:05:26,640 Speaker 3: you know that there? I haven't left a lot enough 1392 01:05:26,680 --> 01:05:28,720 Speaker 3: time to explain this year. I've explained this to you later. 1393 01:05:28,920 --> 01:05:32,080 Speaker 3: Did you know that there's an anti sunscreen movement? And yes, 1394 01:05:32,160 --> 01:05:34,560 Speaker 3: of course it's all the same characters. It's the there's 1395 01:05:34,560 --> 01:05:38,880 Speaker 3: a big overlap between people who are anti sunscreen, anti fluoride, 1396 01:05:39,360 --> 01:05:43,160 Speaker 3: anti covid vacs. Make all your anti soap, make all 1397 01:05:43,200 --> 01:05:46,560 Speaker 3: your soap at home, don't give your children sugar, you know, 1398 01:05:46,640 --> 01:05:49,000 Speaker 3: like they're you know, like like really like extreme health 1399 01:05:49,080 --> 01:05:51,760 Speaker 3: nuts are now getting into anti sunscreen. Anyway, I'm going 1400 01:05:51,800 --> 01:05:54,320 Speaker 3: to run you through that. Why I don't I'm not 1401 01:05:54,360 --> 01:05:57,720 Speaker 3: an anti sunscreener. I use the sunscreen. But why maybe 1402 01:05:58,200 --> 01:06:00,160 Speaker 3: it may be we should listen to them, just a 1403 01:06:00,200 --> 01:06:02,320 Speaker 3: little bit of what the nutty people in this particular 1404 01:06:02,360 --> 01:06:04,440 Speaker 3: case have to say. Anyway, we'll get to that shortly, 1405 01:06:04,480 --> 01:06:06,160 Speaker 3: as I said, Nicholas.

And if you were 1437 01:07:49,680 --> 01:07:51,360 Speaker 3: doing that, you know, because you're on the other side 1438 01:07:51,360 --> 01:07:52,720 Speaker 3: of the world. But if you're doing it sick as well. 1439 01:07:52,760 --> 01:07:55,160 Speaker 3: I would owe you big time, So thank you. Now, 1440 01:07:56,040 --> 01:07:58,160 Speaker 3: what's going on with the polls? Why aren't you guys 1441 01:07:58,160 --> 01:07:58,720 Speaker 3: doing better? 1442 01:08:00,040 --> 01:08:01,040 Speaker 22: There's been a couple of poles. 1443 01:08:01,720 --> 01:08:05,160 Speaker 20: They both show largely that there's a fight on between 1444 01:08:05,160 --> 01:08:08,760 Speaker 20: the coalition and the opposition parties. And in my mind, 1445 01:08:08,880 --> 01:08:11,080 Speaker 20: that flight's going to be about who do you trust 1446 01:08:11,480 --> 01:08:15,280 Speaker 20: to strengthen and secure economic growth over the next few years. 1447 01:08:15,600 --> 01:08:19,800 Speaker 20: And frankly, the idea that Labor Greens and to Party Marty. 1448 01:08:19,680 --> 01:08:21,160 Speaker 22: Are going to do it is wrong. 1449 01:08:21,360 --> 01:08:24,240 Speaker 20: Yeah, they would confiscate wealth, they tax us, that put 1450 01:08:24,320 --> 01:08:27,040 Speaker 20: us into a lot more debt, and so our coalition 1451 01:08:27,520 --> 01:08:30,599 Speaker 20: needs to demonstrate that we are doing the right things 1452 01:08:30,680 --> 01:08:32,920 Speaker 20: at pace and that these will make a difference for 1453 01:08:33,040 --> 01:08:35,320 Speaker 20: New Zealanders. We've got to keep working hard at that 1454 01:08:35,560 --> 01:08:38,840 Speaker 20: and the pulse will eventually reward us as when we 1455 01:08:38,880 --> 01:08:39,559 Speaker 20: demonstrate it. 1456 01:08:39,640 --> 01:08:42,240 Speaker 3: Well, why aren't you demonstrating it already? You've had more 1457 01:08:42,280 --> 01:08:43,080 Speaker 3: than eighteen months. 1458 01:08:43,920 --> 01:08:46,640 Speaker 20: Well, we are demonstrating it with our actions. But the 1459 01:08:46,680 --> 01:08:50,639 Speaker 20: reality is the economy is still recovering and that means 1460 01:08:50,800 --> 01:08:54,200 Speaker 20: that we're not seeing instant, overnight success. We never claimed 1461 01:08:54,200 --> 01:08:56,559 Speaker 20: that we would, but we are doing the right things 1462 01:08:56,640 --> 01:08:59,160 Speaker 20: to ensure that more businesses if we're able to expand 1463 01:08:59,240 --> 01:09:02,080 Speaker 20: higher are that we can get more investment into the country, 1464 01:09:02,120 --> 01:09:04,160 Speaker 20: that we can grow our trade, that we can become 1465 01:09:04,160 --> 01:09:06,200 Speaker 20: a wealthier place where people can better deal with. 1466 01:09:06,160 --> 01:09:06,920 Speaker 22: The cost of living. 1467 01:09:07,320 --> 01:09:10,120 Speaker 20: Those are the right things to be doing, and I 1468 01:09:10,200 --> 01:09:13,439 Speaker 20: expect all of my forecasters tell me that that will 1469 01:09:13,439 --> 01:09:17,400 Speaker 20: result in a higher growth rate, more income growth, lower 1470 01:09:17,400 --> 01:09:20,840 Speaker 20: interest rates, and lower inflation over the next twelve months. 1471 01:09:20,920 --> 01:09:23,479 Speaker 20: And that's when the election will be held next year, 1472 01:09:23,720 --> 01:09:24,320 Speaker 20: not tomorrow. 1473 01:09:24,760 --> 01:09:27,600 Speaker 3: What have you done, apart from the tax boost in 1474 01:09:28,000 --> 01:09:30,320 Speaker 3: the investment tax boosts that you gave in the last budget, 1475 01:09:30,320 --> 01:09:33,280 Speaker 3: what have you actually practically done that helps this economy. 1476 01:09:34,280 --> 01:09:36,800 Speaker 20: Well, we've brought in the fast tracked legislation, which means 1477 01:09:36,800 --> 01:09:41,880 Speaker 20: that major projects results of that. Well, the Auckland Port 1478 01:09:41,960 --> 01:09:45,080 Speaker 20: expansion will take part place this year as a result 1479 01:09:45,120 --> 01:09:47,240 Speaker 20: of that, and we'se around a dozen other projects that 1480 01:09:47,240 --> 01:09:49,960 Speaker 20: are due to good announcements in the next line, which 1481 01:09:50,000 --> 01:09:52,960 Speaker 20: we expect will kick off before Christmas. We're replacing the 1482 01:09:53,080 --> 01:09:56,280 Speaker 20: entire Resource Management Act. We've removed red tape from farmers 1483 01:09:56,320 --> 01:09:58,600 Speaker 20: well by the way are driving it now. We have 1484 01:09:58,720 --> 01:10:01,439 Speaker 20: reduced red tape from farmers already in terms of the 1485 01:10:01,479 --> 01:10:04,080 Speaker 20: fresh water rules are in terms of what's happening with 1486 01:10:04,120 --> 01:10:08,439 Speaker 20: forestry conversions, we've done that work already. We've made sure 1487 01:10:08,439 --> 01:10:12,760 Speaker 20: that our employment laws allow small businesses and large businesses to. 1488 01:10:12,640 --> 01:10:14,400 Speaker 22: Put people on ninety day trials. 1489 01:10:15,040 --> 01:10:17,640 Speaker 20: We've reduced some of the constraints and our health and 1490 01:10:17,680 --> 01:10:21,759 Speaker 20: safety regulation. We've ensured that there is a proper investment 1491 01:10:21,840 --> 01:10:25,080 Speaker 20: going into infrastructure and that projects are being delivered faster. 1492 01:10:25,280 --> 01:10:27,200 Speaker 3: This is all rats and mice. This is the problem 1493 01:10:27,280 --> 01:10:30,000 Speaker 3: right Apart from this stuff, This is all rats and mice. 1494 01:10:30,040 --> 01:10:32,679 Speaker 3: I totally agree that the tax boost was necessary. And yes, 1495 01:10:32,840 --> 01:10:36,000 Speaker 3: maybe in the future the fast track stuff will work. 1496 01:10:36,040 --> 01:10:37,880 Speaker 3: In the port stuff will work, in the RMA stuff 1497 01:10:37,880 --> 01:10:39,719 Speaker 3: will work. But right now we're just dealing with tanquerary. 1498 01:10:39,920 --> 01:10:41,720 Speaker 3: We're in the biggest recession that we have been in 1499 01:10:41,720 --> 01:10:43,559 Speaker 3: thirty years. Don't you think you guys should be doing 1500 01:10:43,560 --> 01:10:44,600 Speaker 3: something fundamental. 1501 01:10:45,680 --> 01:10:47,360 Speaker 22: Well, we have done fundamental changes. 1502 01:10:47,400 --> 01:10:50,320 Speaker 20: We've introduced golden visas with more than a billion dollars 1503 01:10:50,360 --> 01:10:53,120 Speaker 20: worth of investment. How much of that money would not 1504 01:10:53,280 --> 01:10:56,519 Speaker 20: go other ways for the comfort Well, there's more than 1505 01:10:56,560 --> 01:10:58,840 Speaker 20: a billion dollars pledged and those will be signed off 1506 01:10:59,280 --> 01:11:00,519 Speaker 20: coming weeks months. 1507 01:11:01,160 --> 01:11:04,360 Speaker 3: Why are you you, Nikola, You are the woman in 1508 01:11:04,439 --> 01:11:06,320 Speaker 3: charge of finance, and why are you not doing a 1509 01:11:06,360 --> 01:11:06,920 Speaker 3: better job? 1510 01:11:08,280 --> 01:11:10,840 Speaker 20: Well, I would put to you that we are doing 1511 01:11:10,880 --> 01:11:14,000 Speaker 20: a good job because actually what we've done is ensured 1512 01:11:14,040 --> 01:11:16,679 Speaker 20: that New Zealanders had tax reductions rather than. 1513 01:11:16,560 --> 01:11:18,360 Speaker 22: Tax increases, which would. 1514 01:11:18,120 --> 01:11:21,080 Speaker 20: Have constrained the economy. We've ensured that inflation, which was 1515 01:11:21,120 --> 01:11:23,960 Speaker 20: out of control for three years, has come down. We've 1516 01:11:24,000 --> 01:11:28,040 Speaker 20: seen significant interest rate reductions which provide an impetus for 1517 01:11:28,080 --> 01:11:29,920 Speaker 20: a revival in the construction industry. 1518 01:11:29,960 --> 01:11:31,120 Speaker 22: And I'm glad to see the conference. 1519 01:11:31,120 --> 01:11:34,639 Speaker 3: This is reserve bank stuff. You're the reserve The Reserve 1520 01:11:34,680 --> 01:11:37,760 Speaker 3: Bank did this you have? I mean, your biggest problem 1521 01:11:37,840 --> 01:11:39,640 Speaker 3: right now is you're not running any surpluses. And the 1522 01:11:39,680 --> 01:11:41,640 Speaker 3: Treasury report that came out on Friday, so you need 1523 01:11:41,680 --> 01:11:42,720 Speaker 3: to be running surpluses. 1524 01:11:43,880 --> 01:11:46,479 Speaker 20: Well, I'm going to rebut you there because I've seen 1525 01:11:46,520 --> 01:11:50,320 Speaker 20: your commentary on that. The simple factor is over two budgets, 1526 01:11:50,720 --> 01:11:54,360 Speaker 20: we have reduced expenditure by forty four billion. That's how 1527 01:11:54,360 --> 01:11:57,760 Speaker 20: many savings that we found, and we have given a 1528 01:11:57,800 --> 01:11:58,759 Speaker 20: path that will. 1529 01:11:58,640 --> 01:12:01,040 Speaker 3: Ensure and you put them into our portion of. 1530 01:12:01,040 --> 01:12:04,120 Speaker 20: The economy comes down from the big high of thirty 1531 01:12:04,160 --> 01:12:07,240 Speaker 20: four point four percent under Robertson, it comes down to 1532 01:12:07,320 --> 01:12:10,599 Speaker 20: thirty point nine percent over our over the four year 1533 01:12:10,640 --> 01:12:14,200 Speaker 20: forecast period. And we've achieved that by making big changes 1534 01:12:14,240 --> 01:12:17,599 Speaker 20: in terms of key We save subsidies in terms of benefit, 1535 01:12:17,720 --> 01:12:20,439 Speaker 20: increase rates in terms of emergency housing, in terms of 1536 01:12:20,439 --> 01:12:23,760 Speaker 20: welfare reform, in terms of pay equity, and all of 1537 01:12:23,800 --> 01:12:24,400 Speaker 20: those things. 1538 01:12:24,479 --> 01:12:26,800 Speaker 3: Now, Snickler and Treasury said, five years on from the 1539 01:12:26,840 --> 01:12:29,720 Speaker 3: start of the pandemic, core crown expenditure as a share 1540 01:12:29,720 --> 01:12:32,560 Speaker 3: of GDP is still near its twenty twenty level, So 1541 01:12:32,600 --> 01:12:33,280 Speaker 3: you actually. 1542 01:12:33,160 --> 01:12:36,800 Speaker 20: And it's on track to come down significantly. And we 1543 01:12:36,880 --> 01:12:40,560 Speaker 20: did not get a mandate for slash and burn economics. 1544 01:12:40,920 --> 01:12:44,240 Speaker 20: Nor do I think that that austerity path that Ruth 1545 01:12:44,360 --> 01:12:47,320 Speaker 20: Richardson and others have promoted would be the right thing 1546 01:12:47,400 --> 01:12:50,679 Speaker 20: for New Zealanne because we are because we have put 1547 01:12:50,720 --> 01:12:53,920 Speaker 20: money into our health system so that New Zealanders don't 1548 01:12:53,960 --> 01:12:55,960 Speaker 20: need to wait so long for an operation. We have 1549 01:12:56,040 --> 01:12:59,519 Speaker 20: put money into our education system so that the next 1550 01:12:59,520 --> 01:13:05,960 Speaker 20: generation better educated. No, we have absolutely focused money and 1551 01:13:06,000 --> 01:13:11,840 Speaker 20: to core areas health, education, infrastructure. Those are things that 1552 01:13:11,880 --> 01:13:14,200 Speaker 20: are needed for our economy to be strong. 1553 01:13:14,240 --> 01:13:16,519 Speaker 3: But there's a lot of other stuff spend money on here, 1554 01:13:16,520 --> 01:13:18,240 Speaker 3: And do you know this, we don't have to spend money, 1555 01:13:18,240 --> 01:13:18,680 Speaker 3: which is. 1556 01:13:18,640 --> 01:13:22,559 Speaker 20: Why we have reduced expenditure by forty four billion dollars 1557 01:13:22,640 --> 01:13:26,080 Speaker 20: over areas that we believed were not delivering value for money. 1558 01:13:26,120 --> 01:13:27,799 Speaker 22: What about how you do it here? 1559 01:13:27,920 --> 01:13:31,559 Speaker 3: What about cutting the grocery commissioner because he himself says 1560 01:13:31,560 --> 01:13:33,439 Speaker 3: he does not have the tools to do what needs 1561 01:13:33,439 --> 01:13:35,280 Speaker 3: to be done here, so he's he's ultimately I like 1562 01:13:35,680 --> 01:13:37,720 Speaker 3: the guy, but he's a waste of space in that role. 1563 01:13:37,760 --> 01:13:38,840 Speaker 3: So why don't we get rid of it? 1564 01:13:38,920 --> 01:13:41,880 Speaker 20: Well, you've got to get serious here that because reducing 1565 01:13:42,240 --> 01:13:44,800 Speaker 20: the amount of money that goes into the grocery commissioner 1566 01:13:45,160 --> 01:13:47,920 Speaker 20: is a zero point zero zero zero percentage of our 1567 01:13:47,960 --> 01:13:50,519 Speaker 20: overall government spending. I know that, And what his report 1568 01:13:50,640 --> 01:13:52,559 Speaker 20: is well exactly, So it's not a solution to this. 1569 01:13:52,720 --> 01:13:54,519 Speaker 3: But if you get enough of that stuff nically, you 1570 01:13:54,560 --> 01:13:56,519 Speaker 3: cut that, You cut the Women's Ministry, you cut the 1571 01:13:56,520 --> 01:13:59,000 Speaker 3: Ministry for Pacific Peoples, you cut all those ministry for 1572 01:13:59,000 --> 01:14:00,840 Speaker 3: the environment. Think tanks like get rid of them, and 1573 01:14:00,880 --> 01:14:01,559 Speaker 3: you are saying. 1574 01:14:01,400 --> 01:14:04,080 Speaker 20: None of them would be any but none of them 1575 01:14:04,120 --> 01:14:08,559 Speaker 20: would be anywhere near as significant as changing the pay equity, raging, 1576 01:14:08,960 --> 01:14:14,160 Speaker 20: stopping the indexation of welfare to incomes. 1577 01:14:14,520 --> 01:14:16,920 Speaker 22: None of those things would get anywhere near the order 1578 01:14:16,920 --> 01:14:17,640 Speaker 22: of magnitude. 1579 01:14:17,640 --> 01:14:21,240 Speaker 20: We're doing the big things that make structural savings, which 1580 01:14:21,280 --> 01:14:25,919 Speaker 20: is actually what New Zealand needs. And on the grocery Commissioner, actually, 1581 01:14:25,960 --> 01:14:28,680 Speaker 20: what he is doing is monitoring what's happening in that 1582 01:14:28,800 --> 01:14:32,880 Speaker 20: sector to provide us accurate data before we make what 1583 01:14:33,000 --> 01:14:37,200 Speaker 20: are significant policy changes. And actually I think that it's 1584 01:14:37,200 --> 01:14:39,920 Speaker 20: important we are well informed about what's actually happening with 1585 01:14:40,000 --> 01:14:42,080 Speaker 20: market share, with margins. 1586 01:14:41,840 --> 01:14:42,559 Speaker 22: That sort of thing. 1587 01:14:42,920 --> 01:14:47,080 Speaker 20: His reports have led to far greater enforcement of pricing 1588 01:14:47,120 --> 01:14:49,960 Speaker 20: and promotion practices, and the supermarkets have changed their turn 1589 01:14:50,040 --> 01:14:54,080 Speaker 20: on that now now introducing refund policies. They're now being 1590 01:14:54,160 --> 01:14:56,840 Speaker 20: much clearer about their pricing because they know they're being 1591 01:14:56,920 --> 01:14:59,920 Speaker 20: watched by the commission. In a market where supermarkets have 1592 01:15:00,120 --> 01:15:03,240 Speaker 20: market power, someone needs to be watching and calling it 1593 01:15:03,240 --> 01:15:04,320 Speaker 20: out when it's not right. 1594 01:15:04,560 --> 01:15:06,759 Speaker 3: Are you meeting the gent tailors later this week? 1595 01:15:08,120 --> 01:15:10,200 Speaker 22: I won't be because I'll be in London and then 1596 01:15:10,240 --> 01:15:10,880 Speaker 22: in New York. 1597 01:15:11,080 --> 01:15:12,720 Speaker 3: Who's meeting them? 1598 01:15:13,560 --> 01:15:16,679 Speaker 22: Well, look the energy Minister regularly meets gen Taylor's. 1599 01:15:17,080 --> 01:15:19,439 Speaker 3: Are they going to be talking about the Frontier Report? 1600 01:15:21,200 --> 01:15:23,799 Speaker 20: Well, the Frontier Report has been received by the government. 1601 01:15:24,320 --> 01:15:28,519 Speaker 20: Our key focus is making sure that our electricity market 1602 01:15:28,600 --> 01:15:31,080 Speaker 20: is structured in a way that ensures we get good 1603 01:15:31,200 --> 01:15:35,840 Speaker 20: investment and generation, and that our generators have access to 1604 01:15:35,920 --> 01:15:38,080 Speaker 20: the fuel they need to generate electricity. 1605 01:15:38,840 --> 01:15:41,839 Speaker 3: Kiss what is the important thing about the Frontier reporters? 1606 01:15:41,840 --> 01:15:45,639 Speaker 3: Apparently that it recommends taking the generation aspect away from 1607 01:15:45,680 --> 01:15:47,840 Speaker 3: the gent Taylor's and then bundling it together and the 1608 01:15:47,840 --> 01:15:49,400 Speaker 3: government running it. Are you open to. 1609 01:15:49,280 --> 01:15:51,519 Speaker 22: That as a government. 1610 01:15:51,560 --> 01:15:53,439 Speaker 20: We're considering that report and I'm not going to get 1611 01:15:53,479 --> 01:15:56,559 Speaker 20: ahead of Cabinet on it.

Realistically, 1614 01:16:03,439 --> 01:16:06,280 Speaker 20: that is going to mean coal and gas for some time. 1615 01:16:06,640 --> 01:16:08,439 Speaker 20: So how do we make sure that we're getting enough 1616 01:16:08,479 --> 01:16:12,280 Speaker 20: investment both in power plants that can generate electricity using 1617 01:16:12,280 --> 01:16:15,479 Speaker 20: those fuels and that we have sufficient access to those 1618 01:16:15,520 --> 01:16:18,879 Speaker 20: fuels so that New Zealand doesn't get massive energy spikes 1619 01:16:18,880 --> 01:16:22,240 Speaker 20: in the future that lead to de industrialization and expensive 1620 01:16:22,240 --> 01:16:23,719 Speaker 20: electricity prices for keys. 1621 01:16:23,920 --> 01:16:25,800 Speaker 3: Nicholas, thank you so much for taking the time to 1622 01:16:25,840 --> 01:16:27,559 Speaker 3: talk to us from London.

Hello, head right, 1652 01:17:49,320 --> 01:17:51,519 Speaker 3: what are we thinking about the Fed's chances of cutting 1653 01:17:51,560 --> 01:17:52,240 Speaker 3: the rates? 1654 01:17:53,320 --> 01:17:54,760 Speaker 23: Well, it's a big one. I'm going to be honest 1655 01:17:54,760 --> 01:17:58,120 Speaker 23: with you. The July consumer price inflation for the United 1656 01:17:58,160 --> 01:17:59,960 Speaker 23: States that comes out on Tuesday night News on time. 1657 01:18:00,560 --> 01:18:03,240 Speaker 23: They'll influence whether the US FED, that's the central bank, 1658 01:18:03,240 --> 01:18:05,320 Speaker 23: and the US does cut rates when they do it 1659 01:18:05,400 --> 01:18:08,519 Speaker 23: how often. Obviously, mister Trump, the President is pushing in 1660 01:18:08,560 --> 01:18:09,880 Speaker 23: the cut rates, but inflation. 1661 01:18:09,560 --> 01:18:10,400 Speaker 7: Has been pretty sticky. 1662 01:18:11,040 --> 01:18:14,679 Speaker 23: Market is expecting about a zero point two percent number 1663 01:18:14,680 --> 01:18:17,120 Speaker 23: for the July month that commits to two point eight 1664 01:18:17,160 --> 01:18:21,360 Speaker 23: percent for the full year. Maybe getting enough, Maybe getting enough, 1665 01:18:21,720 --> 01:18:23,519 Speaker 23: But you know, the feed's been pretty sticky with this 1666 01:18:23,640 --> 01:18:25,599 Speaker 23: sort of four point twenty five four point five percent 1667 01:18:25,720 --> 01:18:28,479 Speaker 23: range they put in December. Look, I think the markets 1668 01:18:28,479 --> 01:18:31,000 Speaker 23: can be a bit weary. Uh, the market's gonna be 1669 01:18:31,040 --> 01:18:33,200 Speaker 23: worried if it comes in hot either, to be honest 1670 01:18:33,200 --> 01:18:35,960 Speaker 23: with if it's above that point two, then the market's 1671 01:18:35,960 --> 01:18:37,720 Speaker 23: gonna be worried about interest rates staying high when the 1672 01:18:37,760 --> 01:18:40,920 Speaker 23: economy is slowing down. So really important one on Tuesday 1673 01:18:40,960 --> 01:18:41,800 Speaker 23: Night News all time. 1674 01:18:42,240 --> 01:18:45,000 Speaker 3: Now, what is the market expecting from the RBA tomorrow? 1675 01:18:45,880 --> 01:18:49,200 Speaker 23: Yeah, in contrast fully pricing in a point twenty five 1676 01:18:49,320 --> 01:18:52,280 Speaker 23: percent cut from the RBA taking their official cash rate 1677 01:18:52,320 --> 01:18:55,200 Speaker 23: down to three point six percent last month. Of course, 1678 01:18:55,240 --> 01:18:57,519 Speaker 23: either they shocked us by not cutting. They said we 1679 01:18:57,520 --> 01:18:59,559 Speaker 23: want to see some more data, particularly on price growth 1680 01:18:59,600 --> 01:19:02,280 Speaker 23: and play. Since then, we've had inflation come in lower 1681 01:19:02,520 --> 01:19:05,880 Speaker 23: then expect at two points and actually unemployment starting to 1682 01:19:06,000 --> 01:19:08,519 Speaker 23: rise and iusy something that many new zeigners don't realize 1683 01:19:08,560 --> 01:19:11,400 Speaker 23: that economy is actually starting to slow down. So a 1684 01:19:11,479 --> 01:19:13,720 Speaker 23: cut that will be pretty helpful and just cushioning the 1685 01:19:13,840 --> 01:19:17,400 Speaker 23: bit of slow down that's occurring, boosting household confidence which 1686 01:19:17,439 --> 01:19:21,200 Speaker 23: is actually pretty weak. If they don't cut, markets'll be weak. 1687 01:19:21,360 --> 01:19:21,559 Speaker 6: Yeah. 1688 01:19:21,720 --> 01:19:23,840 Speaker 3: Did you see that stuff around spark selling a steak 1689 01:19:23,880 --> 01:19:26,120 Speaker 3: in the data center business?

Do you know what though, like I 1770 01:23:27,920 --> 01:23:30,480 Speaker 3: actually want to watch it. My friend went to the premiere. 1771 01:23:30,520 --> 01:23:31,639 Speaker 3: Do you want me to tell you what she said? 1772 01:23:31,680 --> 01:23:33,439 Speaker 3: So my friend went to the premiere. She votes right, 1773 01:23:33,920 --> 01:23:37,080 Speaker 3: So this is declared bias here. She went to the 1774 01:23:37,080 --> 01:23:41,519 Speaker 3: premiere and she said, what she thought was fascinating was 1775 01:23:41,560 --> 01:23:44,920 Speaker 3: that in twenty twenty, throughout the lockdowns and stuff, just 1776 01:23:45,000 --> 01:23:47,840 Speaker 3: Sinda looked like she was coping with everything and she 1777 01:23:47,880 --> 01:23:50,639 Speaker 3: was making really good decisions. And she said, remember how 1778 01:23:50,760 --> 01:23:53,640 Speaker 3: it started twenty twenty one, we had I think it 1779 01:23:53,680 --> 01:23:56,400 Speaker 3: was it the KFC worker or the guy who went 1780 01:23:56,439 --> 01:23:58,280 Speaker 3: to the gym or somebody. There was something there was 1781 01:23:58,320 --> 01:24:00,280 Speaker 3: There was a COVID case that just popped out of 1782 01:24:00,320 --> 01:24:03,160 Speaker 3: the blue, and justin the got pulled back from holiday 1783 01:24:03,160 --> 01:24:05,920 Speaker 3: for that. And my friend said, when they interviewed her 1784 01:24:06,360 --> 01:24:09,160 Speaker 3: for that, you could see she'd lost it, like she 1785 01:24:09,560 --> 01:24:13,280 Speaker 3: was not coping anymore. She looked completely worn out, and 1786 01:24:13,320 --> 01:24:15,840 Speaker 3: she looked like she was making bad decisions. Also, my 1787 01:24:15,920 --> 01:24:19,240 Speaker 3: friend's other comment was most people won't notice this because 1788 01:24:19,400 --> 01:24:22,720 Speaker 3: most people don't deal with politics, but Clark's level of 1789 01:24:22,840 --> 01:24:26,680 Speaker 3: access to what was going on in politics was completely 1790 01:24:26,760 --> 01:24:29,879 Speaker 3: out of line. He was filming stuff that was wild 1791 01:24:30,240 --> 01:24:32,080 Speaker 3: that he was able to stand there filming it as 1792 01:24:32,080 --> 01:24:34,519 Speaker 3: a partner. Partners don't normally go to that stuff, so 1793 01:24:34,560 --> 01:24:35,920 Speaker 3: the fact that he was able to go to that 1794 01:24:36,000 --> 01:24:39,519 Speaker 3: stuff was just really really bizarre. But I mean, I 1795 01:24:39,520 --> 01:24:41,559 Speaker 3: don't think most people, if you're a fangirl and you're 1796 01:24:41,560 --> 01:24:43,360 Speaker 3: fanboy and you're watching it, you won't care about it. 1797 01:24:43,600 --> 01:24:47,760 Speaker 3: But I think what it goes to show is remember 1798 01:24:47,800 --> 01:24:50,040 Speaker 3: Ian Taylor recently made that point in his stuff column 1799 01:24:50,040 --> 01:24:51,759 Speaker 3: where he was like, it was all about brand management. 1800 01:24:52,280 --> 01:24:54,479 Speaker 3: It really was all about brand management. Twenty two away 1801 01:24:54,520 --> 01:24:55,160 Speaker 3: from seven. 1802 01:24:55,040 --> 01:24:56,640 Speaker 4: I'd Heather do for see Al. 1803 01:24:56,840 --> 01:24:58,840 Speaker 3: I'm telling you earlier about this new one hundred and 1804 01:24:58,880 --> 01:25:02,599 Speaker 3: thirty million dollars luxury hotel being built in Queenstown. It's 1805 01:25:02,640 --> 01:25:04,840 Speaker 3: called the Noctus Hotel. It's going to sit on an 1806 01:25:04,840 --> 01:25:08,320 Speaker 3: elevated one point two hectare site in Fernhill. Has been 1807 01:25:08,320 --> 01:25:11,559 Speaker 3: described as one of the largest hospitality investments in Queenstown's history. 1808 01:25:11,560 --> 01:25:14,280 Speaker 3: And when I say super luxury, I mean it. You 1809 01:25:14,320 --> 01:25:17,720 Speaker 3: have thirty seven ultra high end residences. They start with 1810 01:25:17,800 --> 01:25:22,439 Speaker 3: three hundred square meter three hundred square meter junior suites, 1811 01:25:22,880 --> 01:25:26,680 Speaker 3: six hundred and seventy square meters executive residences or the 1812 01:25:27,040 --> 01:25:29,800 Speaker 3: presidential pent house, which has got ten bedrooms and comes 1813 01:25:29,840 --> 01:25:32,439 Speaker 3: into a cool twelve hundred square meters. Matt Woods is 1814 01:25:32,439 --> 01:25:37,040 Speaker 3: the CEO of Destination Queenstown. Hey, Matt, Hey, how are you, Heather, Matt, 1815 01:25:37,080 --> 01:25:39,160 Speaker 3: I'm very well. But geez, I'll tell you what. How 1816 01:25:39,200 --> 01:25:40,599 Speaker 3: good does this sound for you? Guys? 1817 01:25:40,600 --> 01:25:41,000 Speaker 21: Do you reckon? 1818 01:25:41,000 --> 01:25:42,160 Speaker 3: You have the people to fill it? 1819 01:25:43,240 --> 01:25:43,400 Speaker 4: Oh? 1820 01:25:43,439 --> 01:25:45,040 Speaker 13: Look, I think it's a great thing for New Zealand. 1821 01:25:45,040 --> 01:25:47,000 Speaker 13: I think it's one of those pieces that we actually 1822 01:25:47,000 --> 01:25:49,439 Speaker 13: need in the terrorism puzzle here for those high end 1823 01:25:49,479 --> 01:25:51,320 Speaker 13: visitors that are coming to New Zealand that are looking 1824 01:25:51,360 --> 01:25:53,479 Speaker 13: for something like this. So it's not just for Queenstown. 1825 01:25:53,520 --> 01:25:55,799 Speaker 13: I see this actually for as a drawcard for New Zealand. 1826 01:25:56,120 --> 01:25:58,200 Speaker 3: How many people do you, reckon turn up in Queenstown 1827 01:25:58,240 --> 01:25:59,840 Speaker 3: and want to stay in a place as bougie as this. 1828 01:26:00,640 --> 01:26:02,480 Speaker 13: Well, I hope we've got thirty seven. 1829 01:26:04,360 --> 01:26:06,240 Speaker 3: When you say it like that, thirty seven is not 1830 01:26:06,320 --> 01:26:07,960 Speaker 3: a lot. I mean that's going to fill up in 1831 01:26:08,000 --> 01:26:09,200 Speaker 3: the ski season, isn't it. 1832 01:26:09,920 --> 01:26:10,160 Speaker 20: Yeah? 1833 01:26:10,200 --> 01:26:11,880 Speaker 13: Look, and I think that's a really interesting point. And 1834 01:26:12,000 --> 01:26:14,600 Speaker 13: as we see the government at the moments investing in 1835 01:26:14,680 --> 01:26:17,439 Speaker 13: terrorism and putting money back into marketing and actually hopefully 1836 01:26:17,439 --> 01:26:20,400 Speaker 13: into our infrastructure as well, you know, thirty seven people 1837 01:26:20,400 --> 01:26:22,679 Speaker 13: for these high end rooms actually isn't a crazy amount 1838 01:26:22,720 --> 01:26:24,920 Speaker 13: when you consider the amount of international visitors that do 1839 01:26:25,040 --> 01:26:27,679 Speaker 13: come to New Zealand. But I think it's really important 1840 01:26:27,720 --> 01:26:30,000 Speaker 13: that we look in Queenstown too. We actually have something 1841 01:26:30,040 --> 01:26:32,320 Speaker 13: for everybody. So it's not just all high end. We've 1842 01:26:32,320 --> 01:26:35,200 Speaker 13: got backpacker accommodation and we've got mid price points as well. 1843 01:26:35,360 --> 01:26:37,280 Speaker 13: And it was interesting to hear in the weekend. You know, 1844 01:26:37,320 --> 01:26:40,880 Speaker 13: Anthony Albanesi, the Prime Minister of Australia, was in Queenstown 1845 01:26:40,920 --> 01:26:43,320 Speaker 13: this weekend and he referred to his first trip to 1846 01:26:43,400 --> 01:26:45,920 Speaker 13: Queenstown when he was a backpacker staying in a hostel. So, 1847 01:26:46,240 --> 01:26:48,400 Speaker 13: you know, it's really important that we actually have a 1848 01:26:48,479 --> 01:26:50,960 Speaker 13: whole spread, you know, from backpacker all the way through 1849 01:26:50,960 --> 01:26:53,599 Speaker 13: to this high end. And obviously these guys have seen 1850 01:26:53,800 --> 01:26:56,080 Speaker 13: a real hole in the market and they can see 1851 01:26:56,120 --> 01:26:58,680 Speaker 13: the confidence to invest one hundred and thirty million in 1852 01:26:58,720 --> 01:27:01,120 Speaker 13: this property, which is fantastic stick you know, and it's 1853 01:27:01,160 --> 01:27:04,040 Speaker 13: really good to see that the public sector is prepared 1854 01:27:04,040 --> 01:27:06,120 Speaker 13: to act, so the private sector is prepared to invest 1855 01:27:06,160 --> 01:27:08,639 Speaker 13: one hundred and thirty million, you know, So that's amazing 1856 01:27:08,640 --> 01:27:10,560 Speaker 13: From the private sector, and what we really need to 1857 01:27:10,600 --> 01:27:13,280 Speaker 13: see is the public sector investing in infrastructure to go 1858 01:27:13,320 --> 01:27:14,240 Speaker 13: along with this as well. 1859 01:27:14,280 --> 01:27:15,879 Speaker 3: Okay, so what you're talking about. 1860 01:27:15,720 --> 01:27:19,879 Speaker 13: Hospitals, You know, hospitals would be something we needed in Canstown. 1861 01:27:19,920 --> 01:27:22,400 Speaker 13: Absolutely we don't have one, but also we do have 1862 01:27:22,479 --> 01:27:25,799 Speaker 13: a lot of issues on other infrastructure and particularly congestion 1863 01:27:25,960 --> 01:27:28,439 Speaker 13: and roading. So if we could actually see investment in that, 1864 01:27:28,479 --> 01:27:30,280 Speaker 13: I think that's one of those things that our visitors 1865 01:27:30,280 --> 01:27:32,680 Speaker 13: and our community alike would really like to see from 1866 01:27:32,720 --> 01:27:33,519 Speaker 13: the visitor economy. 1867 01:27:33,600 --> 01:27:37,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, totally. Hey, in terms of you know, the best 1868 01:27:37,120 --> 01:27:39,680 Speaker 3: times that Queenstown's ever had, how close to that are 1869 01:27:39,720 --> 01:27:40,800 Speaker 3: you or how far away? 1870 01:27:41,640 --> 01:27:41,760 Speaker 4: Oh? 1871 01:27:41,800 --> 01:27:43,760 Speaker 13: Look, every time is the best time in Queenstown, isn't it. 1872 01:27:43,760 --> 01:27:46,080 Speaker 13: But you know, at the moment we are. We've got 1873 01:27:46,080 --> 01:27:49,800 Speaker 13: fantastic snow. Clearly, Otago and Southland's doing really well at 1874 01:27:49,800 --> 01:27:52,640 Speaker 13: the moment and that's on the back of terrorism and agriculture. 1875 01:27:52,680 --> 01:27:55,639 Speaker 13: You know, so both Southland and Otago are doing really well. 1876 01:27:55,800 --> 01:27:59,080 Speaker 13: But you know, tourism we are. We're fortunate that we 1877 01:27:59,160 --> 01:28:01,840 Speaker 13: have a great air and we get great connectivity and 1878 01:28:01,880 --> 01:28:03,760 Speaker 13: a lot of visitors from Australia. So we're seeing great 1879 01:28:03,800 --> 01:28:06,920 Speaker 13: connectivity coming out of Australia and we're still seeing lots 1880 01:28:06,960 --> 01:28:10,200 Speaker 13: of local domestic visitors coming down to Queenstown and enjoying what. 1881 01:28:10,160 --> 01:28:12,360 Speaker 3: We have, brilliant stuff. Matt, thanks very much for your time. 1882 01:28:12,400 --> 01:28:14,120 Speaker 3: Matt Woods, CEO of Destination. 1883 01:28:13,760 --> 01:28:16,120 Speaker 4: Queen's Town, Heather do see Alan hither. 1884 01:28:16,200 --> 01:28:17,960 Speaker 3: I listened to Nicola and I agree, yes that all 1885 01:28:17,960 --> 01:28:20,400 Speaker 3: those small expenditures like the grocery Minister and so forth 1886 01:28:20,400 --> 01:28:23,200 Speaker 3: a zero point zero points zero zero zeros et or 1887 01:28:23,280 --> 01:28:25,240 Speaker 3: one percent, but it is a serious perception on all 1888 01:28:25,280 --> 01:28:27,160 Speaker 3: the people in the households that are really doing it tough. 1889 01:28:27,360 --> 01:28:29,559 Speaker 3: I agree. I mean, you find enough of those small 1890 01:28:29,560 --> 01:28:31,160 Speaker 3: things and you add them to the big things, like 1891 01:28:31,280 --> 01:28:33,439 Speaker 3: enough big things and you can actually turn things around. 1892 01:28:33,720 --> 01:28:37,640 Speaker 3: Thermal Co now the gentat so look there is I 1893 01:28:37,960 --> 01:28:39,840 Speaker 3: think I don't know if it's if it's being done 1894 01:28:39,840 --> 01:28:42,240 Speaker 3: by external pressure or whether there really is a move 1895 01:28:42,280 --> 01:28:43,920 Speaker 3: on in government or something, but there's a lot of 1896 01:28:43,920 --> 01:28:47,160 Speaker 3: talk of this frontier, this frontier report. Frontier are the 1897 01:28:47,160 --> 01:28:49,120 Speaker 3: guys who were commissioned earlier this year. I think it 1898 01:28:49,200 --> 01:28:50,800 Speaker 3: was to have a look at what we need to 1899 01:28:50,800 --> 01:28:53,080 Speaker 3: do with the electricity sector in this country to turn 1900 01:28:53,120 --> 01:28:55,000 Speaker 3: the thing around and try to fix it and whatnot. 1901 01:28:55,400 --> 01:28:58,840 Speaker 3: Apparently what the Frontier and we're all getting this third hand, 1902 01:28:58,880 --> 01:29:00,320 Speaker 3: but I see there's a lot of reports of it 1903 01:29:00,400 --> 01:29:03,439 Speaker 3: going on. Apparently what the Frontier report either recommends or 1904 01:29:03,600 --> 01:29:07,080 Speaker 3: softly suggests is that what the government needs to do 1905 01:29:07,240 --> 01:29:11,240 Speaker 3: is take from the gen tailor's strip away their generation 1906 01:29:11,360 --> 01:29:13,519 Speaker 3: part right so that they just become retailers. Take away 1907 01:29:13,520 --> 01:29:16,639 Speaker 3: the generation stuff, take everybody's generation stuff, put it into 1908 01:29:16,640 --> 01:29:19,839 Speaker 3: one big generation company and call it thermal Co. Because 1909 01:29:19,920 --> 01:29:21,720 Speaker 3: that's the bit where we're being let down. These guys 1910 01:29:21,760 --> 01:29:24,160 Speaker 3: are not building enough generation, and if the government controls it, 1911 01:29:24,200 --> 01:29:26,320 Speaker 3: they will just build heaps and heaps and heaps of generation. 1912 01:29:27,120 --> 01:29:31,840 Speaker 3: I'm incredibly uncomfortable about this is an idea because for 1913 01:29:32,000 --> 01:29:35,320 Speaker 3: a start, I hate nationalizing anything that freaks me out. 1914 01:29:35,600 --> 01:29:38,320 Speaker 3: There is sovereign risk with that. You start breaking businesses 1915 01:29:38,400 --> 01:29:40,360 Speaker 3: up in this country. What do you think overseas investors 1916 01:29:40,400 --> 01:29:41,600 Speaker 3: are going to think about that? I look at it, 1917 01:29:41,640 --> 01:29:45,519 Speaker 3: go basket case, stay away. They just had six years 1918 01:29:45,520 --> 01:29:47,559 Speaker 3: of labor and one and a half years of national 1919 01:29:47,880 --> 01:29:50,400 Speaker 3: having a crack at businesses and hauling like, look at 1920 01:29:50,439 --> 01:29:52,160 Speaker 3: all the nutty things just Inder and her lot did. 1921 01:29:52,240 --> 01:29:55,880 Speaker 3: And you've got Nicola hauling in Frontra's boss for a yeah. Yah, 1922 01:29:55,920 --> 01:29:58,559 Speaker 3: please explain seven and a half years of freaking business 1923 01:29:58,640 --> 01:30:00,800 Speaker 3: out you do that. That's the I just don't think 1924 01:30:00,800 --> 01:30:04,000 Speaker 3: it's got to do. But also, this is what mom 1925 01:30:04,040 --> 01:30:06,200 Speaker 3: and dad and missus got themselves into with shares, right. 1926 01:30:06,240 --> 01:30:09,280 Speaker 3: We all bought shares, didn't we when John Key floated 1927 01:30:09,280 --> 01:30:11,120 Speaker 3: these things? Can you imagine what this is going to do? 1928 01:30:11,160 --> 01:30:14,479 Speaker 3: And we just got trust back in the in shares. 1929 01:30:14,520 --> 01:30:16,400 Speaker 3: For the longest time New Zealand did not want to 1930 01:30:16,439 --> 01:30:18,559 Speaker 3: have anything to do with the stock market. We got 1931 01:30:18,560 --> 01:30:20,600 Speaker 3: the trust back through what John Key did, and then 1932 01:30:20,640 --> 01:30:22,320 Speaker 3: you go and break it up and just ruin people's 1933 01:30:22,320 --> 01:30:26,200 Speaker 3: trust again. So I think that idea, unfortunately or fortunately 1934 01:30:26,560 --> 01:30:28,840 Speaker 3: you decide, needs to go in the bin. Don't you think. 1935 01:30:28,880 --> 01:30:30,160 Speaker 3: Sixteen away from seven. 1936 01:30:29,960 --> 01:30:33,400 Speaker 1: Approaching the numbers and getting the results, it's hither due 1937 01:30:33,439 --> 01:30:37,080 Speaker 1: for Sea Ellen with the Business Hour and MAS for 1938 01:30:37,240 --> 01:30:39,759 Speaker 1: Trusted Home Insurance Solutions news. 1939 01:30:39,560 --> 01:30:40,120 Speaker 4: Talks that be. 1940 01:30:40,680 --> 01:30:42,320 Speaker 3: I must not forget to talk to you about the 1941 01:30:42,320 --> 01:30:45,160 Speaker 3: sunscreen thing. It's fourteen away from seven. Gavin Gray, UK 1942 01:30:45,200 --> 01:30:48,600 Speaker 3: correspondent with US. Now, Hey, Gavin, either have that. So 1943 01:30:48,640 --> 01:30:50,479 Speaker 3: how serious are they about the thing? You fail your 1944 01:30:50,479 --> 01:30:52,599 Speaker 3: eyesight test at seventeen and you're off the roads? 1945 01:30:53,840 --> 01:30:54,839 Speaker 4: Yeah, very serious. 1946 01:30:54,880 --> 01:30:57,479 Speaker 24: I think this is something this government is now pushing 1947 01:30:57,520 --> 01:31:00,200 Speaker 24: towards it. It comes off the back of an inquest 1948 01:31:00,560 --> 01:31:03,479 Speaker 24: into the deaths of four people caused by drivers with 1949 01:31:03,560 --> 01:31:07,800 Speaker 24: failing eyesight that saw one coroner call the UK's licensing 1950 01:31:07,880 --> 01:31:11,920 Speaker 24: system the laxist in Europe. Indeed, the UK is said 1951 01:31:11,960 --> 01:31:14,559 Speaker 24: to be one of only three European countries to rely 1952 01:31:14,640 --> 01:31:19,240 Speaker 24: on self reporting of eyesight or visual conditions affecting the 1953 01:31:19,280 --> 01:31:22,240 Speaker 24: ability to drive, and this government says that is not 1954 01:31:22,439 --> 01:31:27,040 Speaker 24: good enough. So the coroner themselves were saying that in 1955 01:31:27,120 --> 01:31:30,960 Speaker 24: no other circumstance would we accept one six hundred people 1956 01:31:31,080 --> 01:31:35,480 Speaker 24: dying a year with thousands more seriously injured, costing the NHS, 1957 01:31:35,479 --> 01:31:38,759 Speaker 24: the National Health Service, more than four point four billion 1958 01:31:39,080 --> 01:31:42,080 Speaker 24: New Zealand dollars. And so that's why they're looking at this. 1959 01:31:42,479 --> 01:31:46,000 Speaker 24: England and Wales coming into line with Scotland on other matters, 1960 01:31:46,040 --> 01:31:50,880 Speaker 24: reducing the drink drive limit and also introducing penalty points 1961 01:31:50,920 --> 01:31:54,559 Speaker 24: for passengers not wearing a seat belt. So it is 1962 01:31:54,600 --> 01:31:58,639 Speaker 24: a much much tougher landscape that they're looking to bring 1963 01:31:58,720 --> 01:32:01,240 Speaker 24: in here for those on the roads. Plenty of people 1964 01:32:01,280 --> 01:32:04,560 Speaker 24: supporting it, other people saying, well, you're taking away a 1965 01:32:04,600 --> 01:32:07,160 Speaker 24: lot of people's independence. They might be perfectly able to 1966 01:32:07,240 --> 01:32:09,920 Speaker 24: drive if they actually got some glasses or whatever. But 1967 01:32:10,600 --> 01:32:13,360 Speaker 24: this government seems pretty tough on doing that. You must 1968 01:32:13,360 --> 01:32:15,880 Speaker 24: do that before you get out on the road, and 1969 01:32:15,920 --> 01:32:17,160 Speaker 24: that seems pretty sensible. 1970 01:32:17,200 --> 01:32:19,519 Speaker 3: Really, how long is it going to take the courts 1971 01:32:19,560 --> 01:32:22,160 Speaker 3: to clear these what like five hundred odd people are 1972 01:32:22,160 --> 01:32:23,720 Speaker 3: listed at the protest. 1973 01:32:24,560 --> 01:32:27,160 Speaker 24: A long long time. The courts are already pretty backed 1974 01:32:27,240 --> 01:32:29,720 Speaker 24: up here, and we're being told our prisons are full 1975 01:32:29,800 --> 01:32:33,320 Speaker 24: to capacity, hence the early release programs we've been seeing 1976 01:32:33,360 --> 01:32:36,600 Speaker 24: over the last few months. However, the fate of the 1977 01:32:36,880 --> 01:32:40,680 Speaker 24: five hundred and thirty two who were arrested on Saturday 1978 01:32:41,040 --> 01:32:44,439 Speaker 24: for supporting a group called Palestine Action remains unclear. 1979 01:32:44,680 --> 01:32:44,880 Speaker 7: Now. 1980 01:32:44,920 --> 01:32:49,960 Speaker 24: Palestine Action is simply a group that supports Palestine and 1981 01:32:50,000 --> 01:32:55,559 Speaker 24: what's happening in Gaza, trying to help the people of Gaza. However, 1982 01:32:55,600 --> 01:33:00,760 Speaker 24: the government prescribe Palestine Action as a terrorist group. Therefore, 1983 01:33:01,280 --> 01:33:04,640 Speaker 24: membership of or support for it is criminal and it 1984 01:33:04,680 --> 01:33:08,320 Speaker 24: can be punished by up to fourteen years in prison. Now, 1985 01:33:08,360 --> 01:33:13,080 Speaker 24: on Saturday this weekend, outside Parliament, loads of people gathered 1986 01:33:13,760 --> 01:33:16,880 Speaker 24: and at one o'clock they all suddenly wrote on these 1987 01:33:16,920 --> 01:33:20,840 Speaker 24: signs that they had brought with them something like I 1988 01:33:20,920 --> 01:33:24,680 Speaker 24: oppose genocide, I support Palestine action, at which point the 1989 01:33:24,760 --> 01:33:28,200 Speaker 24: police moved in and arrested them five hundred and twenty 1990 01:33:28,240 --> 01:33:31,840 Speaker 24: one for displaying placards in support of the group. The 1991 01:33:31,920 --> 01:33:36,200 Speaker 24: rest were assaulting police officers. Just six arrests for assaulting 1992 01:33:36,200 --> 01:33:40,400 Speaker 24: police officers, two for breaching public order conditions, one for 1993 01:33:40,439 --> 01:33:44,200 Speaker 24: obstructing a constable and one for a racially aggravated public 1994 01:33:44,240 --> 01:33:47,879 Speaker 24: offic offence. Now, this is the largest number of arrests 1995 01:33:48,360 --> 01:33:51,840 Speaker 24: made by the police Metropolitan Police on a single day 1996 01:33:52,040 --> 01:33:54,080 Speaker 24: in the last ten years. And Heather, it was no 1997 01:33:54,320 --> 01:33:57,920 Speaker 24: student protest. The average age of those arrested was fifty 1998 01:33:58,000 --> 01:34:01,759 Speaker 24: four and the majority of them were h between sixty 1999 01:34:01,880 --> 01:34:02,800 Speaker 24: and sixty nine. 2000 01:34:03,000 --> 01:34:03,240 Speaker 23: Wow. 2001 01:34:03,640 --> 01:34:07,240 Speaker 3: Hey, so why did the restaurant association, the Italian one 2002 01:34:07,280 --> 01:34:09,200 Speaker 3: send a lissa to the UK ambassador. 2003 01:34:10,320 --> 01:34:13,639 Speaker 24: Yeah, they're pretty angry about this. So the Italian's very 2004 01:34:13,680 --> 01:34:17,000 Speaker 24: proud of their food. But the UK Good Food Guide 2005 01:34:17,280 --> 01:34:22,080 Speaker 24: published a recipe for a traditional Roman dish and according 2006 01:34:22,240 --> 01:34:27,080 Speaker 24: to the hospitality sector in Italy. They got it wrong 2007 01:34:27,200 --> 01:34:31,160 Speaker 24: and they're mad about it. And so the dish that 2008 01:34:31,320 --> 01:34:35,519 Speaker 24: is caccio a peppe was described as having four simple 2009 01:34:35,680 --> 01:34:40,320 Speaker 24: ingredients spaghetti, pepper, parmesan and butter. Oh no, said the 2010 01:34:40,360 --> 01:34:44,960 Speaker 24: association representing restaurants in Italy. It only has three pasta, 2011 01:34:45,240 --> 01:34:49,640 Speaker 24: pepper and pecorino. Pecorino is an Italian hard cheese. So 2012 01:34:49,760 --> 01:34:52,960 Speaker 24: all they've done in the Good Food Guide one is 2013 01:34:53,280 --> 01:34:57,720 Speaker 24: put parmesan and butter in instead of this other Italian cheese, peccorina, 2014 01:34:57,880 --> 01:35:00,200 Speaker 24: more difficult to get hold of here in the UKCA 2015 01:35:00,680 --> 01:35:03,479 Speaker 24: they also describe the Good Food said it's a sort 2016 01:35:03,479 --> 01:35:05,600 Speaker 24: of simple dish that could be whipped up for a 2017 01:35:05,640 --> 01:35:09,519 Speaker 24: speedy lunch. The Association of Italian Restaurant says, no, this 2018 01:35:09,600 --> 01:35:12,080 Speaker 24: is to be enjoyed. It takes time to get it right. 2019 01:35:12,160 --> 01:35:14,280 Speaker 24: You can't just quickly whip it up for lunch. And 2020 01:35:14,400 --> 01:35:17,240 Speaker 24: you wouldn't believe. They've actually written a letter to the 2021 01:35:17,360 --> 01:35:21,960 Speaker 24: UK Ambassador Edward Llewellin to complain, as well as the 2022 01:35:22,080 --> 01:35:23,320 Speaker 24: UK Good Food website. 2023 01:35:23,360 --> 01:35:26,439 Speaker 3: Ah good on them, you know they love their food. 2024 01:35:26,479 --> 01:35:32,599 Speaker 3: I Gevin, thanks so much. Devin Gray, UK correspondent just secret, Laura. 2025 01:35:32,640 --> 01:35:36,160 Speaker 3: The producer's husband is like this, so if you start 2026 01:35:36,200 --> 01:35:39,040 Speaker 3: talking to him, he will tell you, like the weird 2027 01:35:39,080 --> 01:35:42,240 Speaker 3: he smashes, he's got to have this particular way of 2028 01:35:42,280 --> 01:35:45,080 Speaker 3: smashing the petty so he can make a smashed burger. 2029 01:35:45,479 --> 01:35:48,200 Speaker 3: And he's like and he's really particular about which beers 2030 01:35:48,240 --> 01:35:51,640 Speaker 3: he like, Like the Italians really into the food. He 2031 01:35:51,680 --> 01:35:53,920 Speaker 3: could never live in a house with me because I 2032 01:35:54,000 --> 01:35:56,639 Speaker 3: just go touch out there you go, there's a boleronnaze. 2033 01:35:56,680 --> 01:35:58,080 Speaker 3: No it is not. I'm telling you no. I know 2034 01:35:58,080 --> 01:36:00,600 Speaker 3: it doesn't look like, well there's a bolerinaze eat. I 2035 01:36:00,680 --> 01:36:04,800 Speaker 3: just basically force I just force food at people because 2036 01:36:04,840 --> 01:36:06,600 Speaker 3: it's like, just get us through the day type they 2037 01:36:06,640 --> 01:36:08,679 Speaker 3: I don't have time for this nonsense, like the Italians 2038 01:36:08,720 --> 01:36:12,719 Speaker 3: and the German's husband. Eight away from seven, It's. 2039 01:36:12,560 --> 01:36:15,800 Speaker 1: The Heather Top See Alan Drive Full show podcast on 2040 01:36:15,960 --> 01:36:18,439 Speaker 1: iHeartRadio powered by newstalk Zebbi. 2041 01:36:20,160 --> 01:36:23,240 Speaker 3: Okay, the sunscreen thing, Heather, I've never worn sunscreen to 2042 01:36:23,280 --> 01:36:25,400 Speaker 3: my entire life, and I only wear sunglasses when I'm 2043 01:36:25,439 --> 01:36:28,960 Speaker 3: driving into the sun. Take notes, Heather, your body doesn't 2044 01:36:29,000 --> 01:36:31,040 Speaker 3: know it's sunny and will not naturally help protect you 2045 01:36:31,120 --> 01:36:33,559 Speaker 3: if you are blinded with sunglasses. I'm not an anti vaxer. 2046 01:36:33,560 --> 01:36:36,160 Speaker 3: I'm pro common sense. Well you still sound like like 2047 01:36:36,200 --> 01:36:39,599 Speaker 3: that's not science. But anyway, I'm gonna do not science 2048 01:36:39,640 --> 01:36:41,479 Speaker 3: at you now as well. So I don't know if 2049 01:36:41,520 --> 01:36:43,879 Speaker 3: you know this, but there is an anti sunscreen movement 2050 01:36:44,520 --> 01:36:46,599 Speaker 3: and it is getting a bit of international coverage. 2051 01:36:46,720 --> 01:36:46,880 Speaker 22: You know. 2052 01:36:46,880 --> 01:36:50,000 Speaker 3: It's the people who love the the RFK. They don't 2053 01:36:50,040 --> 01:36:52,639 Speaker 3: like the sunscreen, and they make their alternative stuff at home, 2054 01:36:52,720 --> 01:36:54,920 Speaker 3: and they there's a little bit of overlap, as I 2055 01:36:54,920 --> 01:36:57,200 Speaker 3: said earlier, with the anti vaxers and the anti fluorides 2056 01:36:57,200 --> 01:36:59,360 Speaker 3: and all that kind of stuff, you know, anti everything, 2057 01:36:59,400 --> 01:37:02,560 Speaker 3: anti anti you know, don't don't give your child a 2058 01:37:02,640 --> 01:37:04,840 Speaker 3: muffin from Woolworth's. Bake your own muffin so you can 2059 01:37:04,880 --> 01:37:07,480 Speaker 3: protect how much sugar they're getting. All that kind of crap. Anyway, 2060 01:37:07,720 --> 01:37:12,080 Speaker 3: So the skepticism about sunscreen is based on the fact 2061 01:37:12,120 --> 01:37:14,280 Speaker 3: that a lot of these people think that there's a 2062 01:37:14,320 --> 01:37:16,519 Speaker 3: couple of a couple of things in the sunscreen that 2063 01:37:16,520 --> 01:37:20,800 Speaker 3: they don't love oxybenzone and titanium dioxide. And I think 2064 01:37:20,840 --> 01:37:22,320 Speaker 3: they made correct me if I'm wrong, but I think 2065 01:37:22,320 --> 01:37:25,840 Speaker 3: they may be claiming that it's a carcinogen, so you 2066 01:37:25,920 --> 01:37:27,800 Speaker 3: know it causes cancer, so you should avoided. And so 2067 01:37:27,840 --> 01:37:29,680 Speaker 3: what they're doing is they're putting you know, they're not 2068 01:37:29,720 --> 01:37:32,280 Speaker 3: putting on any sunscreen. They're putting long sleeved rash shirts 2069 01:37:32,280 --> 01:37:34,759 Speaker 3: on the kids instead, which is actually quite a smart idea, 2070 01:37:34,920 --> 01:37:37,719 Speaker 3: to be honest. And then they're also using mineral based sunscreens, 2071 01:37:37,720 --> 01:37:40,679 Speaker 3: which also was a smart idea anyway, so I wanted. 2072 01:37:40,840 --> 01:37:43,120 Speaker 3: But some of the stuff is really loopy, Like it's 2073 01:37:43,120 --> 01:37:45,639 Speaker 3: like if you eat certain foods you won't get sunburnt, well, 2074 01:37:45,920 --> 01:37:48,880 Speaker 3: you probably still will, and you know things like you 2075 01:37:48,920 --> 01:37:52,599 Speaker 3: should you should give yourself, give yourself lots of sun exposure. 2076 01:37:52,600 --> 01:37:55,120 Speaker 3: That way you're gonna bild up your malowtonin melanonin or 2077 01:37:55,120 --> 01:37:56,840 Speaker 3: whatever it is, and then you won't get burned. There's 2078 01:37:56,880 --> 01:37:58,840 Speaker 3: elements of truth to all of this, but maybe as 2079 01:37:58,840 --> 01:38:01,479 Speaker 3: a bit dangerous. Anyway. Where I'm going with this though, 2080 01:38:01,800 --> 01:38:03,680 Speaker 3: is I kind of and on board. I'm kind of 2081 01:38:03,720 --> 01:38:05,880 Speaker 3: on board with them, and I don't want to sound 2082 01:38:05,920 --> 01:38:10,120 Speaker 3: like a mentalist, but I don't really love sunscreen. I 2083 01:38:10,160 --> 01:38:11,920 Speaker 3: never use the fifty on me. I only go for 2084 01:38:11,960 --> 01:38:16,080 Speaker 3: the thirty. And because I worry about vitamin D deficiency, probably mental, 2085 01:38:16,200 --> 01:38:18,920 Speaker 3: probably not science. But also I don't want to kill 2086 01:38:18,920 --> 01:38:20,920 Speaker 3: the coral. And if you're putting all of that sunscreen 2087 01:38:20,920 --> 01:38:22,960 Speaker 3: in the water, it kills the coral. That's a fact. 2088 01:38:23,400 --> 01:38:25,519 Speaker 3: And also I don't want to be putting this crap 2089 01:38:25,560 --> 01:38:26,800 Speaker 3: all over on my body, you know, like you go 2090 01:38:26,840 --> 01:38:30,400 Speaker 3: to the doctor with a kid with exmethergat and cut 2091 01:38:30,439 --> 01:38:33,400 Speaker 3: the sunscreen. So maybe I'm just saying, like I'm just 2092 01:38:33,439 --> 01:38:35,879 Speaker 3: planting the seed with you that maybe the anti sunscreen 2093 01:38:35,920 --> 01:38:38,599 Speaker 3: people maybe just a little bit onto something but loopy, 2094 01:38:38,840 --> 01:38:40,800 Speaker 3: but a little bit onto something hence. 2095 01:38:41,120 --> 01:38:42,639 Speaker 10: Or you could be off of something here. That those 2096 01:38:42,640 --> 01:38:45,400 Speaker 10: are the two hospital possible none by Lincoln Park to 2097 01:38:45,400 --> 01:38:47,240 Speaker 10: play us out tonight. They are going to be playing 2098 01:38:47,240 --> 01:38:50,160 Speaker 10: in Australia, not New Zealand at the stage unfortunately in 2099 01:38:50,240 --> 01:38:52,320 Speaker 10: early March next year. There are a few gaps in 2100 01:38:52,360 --> 01:38:54,759 Speaker 10: between the dates though that they're doing Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne, 2101 01:38:54,840 --> 01:38:57,160 Speaker 10: so if any promoters have time to get in touch, 2102 01:38:57,240 --> 01:38:58,960 Speaker 10: this will be their first time day on and since 2103 01:38:58,960 --> 01:39:00,679 Speaker 10: obviously since the death Chester Benington. 2104 01:39:00,760 --> 01:39:02,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, well who they got instead of him? 2105 01:39:02,640 --> 01:39:05,960 Speaker 10: It's the new vocalist, the girl. What's her name anyway. Yeah, 2106 01:39:06,160 --> 01:39:06,600 Speaker 10: stop it. 2107 01:39:06,720 --> 01:39:10,560 Speaker 3: They've replaced him with a girl. Yeah, Honor, that's like 2108 01:39:10,640 --> 01:39:12,519 Speaker 3: making James Bonder girl. I don't want to go now, 2109 01:39:12,560 --> 01:39:12,880 Speaker 3: do you. 2110 01:39:13,479 --> 01:39:15,200 Speaker 10: Well, you need someone who can hit the high notes, 2111 01:39:15,240 --> 01:39:17,479 Speaker 10: so I'm sure they would like the rest of them 2112 01:39:17,520 --> 01:39:19,000 Speaker 10: are the original lineup, so I'm sure they wouldn't have 2113 01:39:19,000 --> 01:39:19,960 Speaker 10: picked her if the didn't think she was. 2114 01:39:19,920 --> 01:39:20,960 Speaker 7: The right old move. 2115 01:39:21,120 --> 01:39:25,000 Speaker 3: Well, there have been poor Chrses before and anyway, see 2116 01:39:25,000 --> 01:39:26,599 Speaker 3: you tomorrow.
