1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,160 Speaker 1: Into Brady are UK correspondence with that's Halloween. 2 00:00:02,240 --> 00:00:04,800 Speaker 2: Da Hey, Heather, great to speak to you, right. 3 00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:06,600 Speaker 1: So Stamer's mit Gie what happened. 4 00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:09,920 Speaker 2: Very positive actually, So there was a lot of kind 5 00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:13,800 Speaker 2: of concern in advance because people here were saying, look, 6 00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:15,800 Speaker 2: you need to go to China and spell out your 7 00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:19,639 Speaker 2: concerns about the Hong Kong pro democracy leader who's in 8 00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:22,919 Speaker 2: jail and is a British citizen, Jimmy Lai. And Starmer 9 00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:25,680 Speaker 2: was saying, well, we'll bring up whatever I want to discuss, 10 00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:27,760 Speaker 2: but I'm not telling you about That was his message 11 00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:29,680 Speaker 2: to the media in advance. But it seems to have 12 00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:32,640 Speaker 2: gone very very well. Pictures out already the two of 13 00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:34,880 Speaker 2: them standing together. There was a banquet in the Great 14 00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:38,839 Speaker 2: Hall and it was interesting what Gee said. He heaped 15 00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:42,240 Speaker 2: praise on labor governments and said, China has always worked 16 00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:45,400 Speaker 2: better with labor governments. We've basically been in the ice 17 00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:50,120 Speaker 2: age recently under the Conservatives with China, no relationship whatsoever. 18 00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:53,360 Speaker 2: It's eight years since Teresa May was the last British 19 00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:56,440 Speaker 2: Prime Minister to go to China. One little curious thing 20 00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:59,000 Speaker 2: I've discovered in the last twenty four hours, which I 21 00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:03,440 Speaker 2: find absolutely fascinating. The British Prime Minister and his entire 22 00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:07,800 Speaker 2: entourage were given burner phones to take to China. They 23 00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:13,000 Speaker 2: were concerned about snooping, hacking, surveillance, so no government laptops, 24 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:17,040 Speaker 2: no personal laptops, no work mobile phones, no government devices 25 00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:21,520 Speaker 2: left the UK. They were all given burner mobile phones 26 00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:25,080 Speaker 2: and burner laptops. So I don't know if Gee realized that, 27 00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:27,120 Speaker 2: but that's how little they trusted Chinese. 28 00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 3: I mean that enda is I mean that is that 29 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,440 Speaker 3: will come as absolutely no surprise to a New Zealand 30 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:34,960 Speaker 3: New Zealander listening to you every single time we send 31 00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 3: a delegation over there. That's exactly what when we go 32 00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:40,039 Speaker 3: over there reasonably regularly. Do you think though, I mean 33 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:42,679 Speaker 3: why that is probably more fascinating to you guys at 34 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 3: the moment is because obviously you've had the revelation about 35 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,480 Speaker 3: the hacking of officials in Downing Street. 36 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 1: Do you reckon that would have come up? 37 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 2: I'm not sure. I think Starmer Pob probably didn't bring 38 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 2: it up. He's not looking, he's he's not a kind 39 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 2: of put up your fists and fight kind of guy. 40 00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:06,440 Speaker 2: And I think there is a dawning realization on people 41 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:09,639 Speaker 2: in the UK now as to just post Brexit, how 42 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 2: small this little island has become in a global world 43 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:15,640 Speaker 2: of trade. So I think this was all about He 44 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:18,960 Speaker 2: brought thirty CEOs with him, by the way, Rolls Royce 45 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:22,560 Speaker 2: CEO Jaguar land Rover CEO just two of the thirty. 46 00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 2: So this is all about trade and somehow finding investment 47 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 2: and growth and getting Britain moving again. 48 00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:32,080 Speaker 1: Hey, what's going on with the car production? 49 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 2: There? 50 00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:33,519 Speaker 1: Slump so badly. 51 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:36,680 Speaker 2: So last year was a terrible year. It was the 52 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:41,080 Speaker 2: worst since what nineteen early nineteen fifties. Britain made just 53 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:44,160 Speaker 2: under eight hundred thousand vehicles, so lots of factors last year. 54 00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:47,400 Speaker 2: Trump tariff's certainly did not help. And then we had 55 00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:51,240 Speaker 2: a cyber attack on Jaguar land Rover in the Midlands 56 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:54,760 Speaker 2: in Soli Hull and that stopped production for about six weeks. 57 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:59,640 Speaker 2: So at the time they had the cyber attack, incomes 58 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 2: Trump with the tariffs and a lot of companies were thinking, well, 59 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 2: you know, America is a big market. We don't really 60 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 2: want to be putting all our stock over there in 61 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 2: vehicles and fleets. And then the never ending curse of Brexit. 62 00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:15,519 Speaker 2: If you go back to twenty sixteen, the UK was 63 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 2: making one point seven million vehicles cars, vans, trucks, lorries 64 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:24,240 Speaker 2: going all over the world, seventy eight percent exported, and 65 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 2: now it's falling away. And people were told this at 66 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:30,640 Speaker 2: the time of Brexit, you vote to lead the European Union, 67 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 2: you were going to kill the car industry in the 68 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,400 Speaker 2: United Kingdom, and they went ahead and did it anyway. 69 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 1: Okay, now we've got It's historic, isn't it. The first 70 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 1: lady Archbishop of Canterbury. 71 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, this is I think wonderful really for the c OFV. 72 00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 2: So we have Dame Sarah Moulali. She was formerly the 73 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:52,440 Speaker 2: Bishop of London. Before that, in a previous career and life, 74 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 2: she was England's chief nurse. So she's had an amazing 75 00:03:56,440 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 2: career of caring and looking after people already in in 76 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 2: the nursing profession. And then she followed her faith, I 77 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,640 Speaker 2: went into the Church of England, became our Bishop of 78 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 2: London and now the first ever female Archbishop of Canterbury. 79 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 2: The ceremony did not go without incident. There was a 80 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 2: very loud male heckler during the ceremony in London who 81 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:21,000 Speaker 2: was quickly shut down She has given an interview saying 82 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 2: that she will lead for all, she will be a 83 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:26,120 Speaker 2: voice against misogyny and just how proud she is and 84 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:26,880 Speaker 2: I wish her. 85 00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:27,120 Speaker 1: Look. 86 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:30,160 Speaker 2: I think it's an amazing thing for the c OFV 87 00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:31,479 Speaker 2: to now be led by a woman. 88 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 1: So what was the hickling about. Was it because she 89 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:33,600 Speaker 1: was a lady? 90 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 2: Yeah? Exactly that, Yeah, exactly that.
