Speaker 1: earlier this show with one roof love where you Live

00:00:09,039 --> 00:00:10,120
Speaker 1: News Talk said.

4
00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:12,719
Speaker 2: Be welcome one to you and welcome to the program,

5
00:00:12,760 --> 00:00:14,400
Speaker 2: and thank you so much for choosing us. Coming up

6
00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:18,640
Speaker 2: over the next hour, the Education Minister has rejected recommendations

7
00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:22,479
Speaker 2: to tight enough our tertiary qualifications. I'll ask the question,

8
00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:25,159
Speaker 2: has our tertiary sector being dumbed down? And we'll have

9
00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:28,360
Speaker 2: that story for you. In five tourism numbers are up,

10
00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:31,200
Speaker 2: but how can we move the needle even higher? That story?

11
00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:34,560
Speaker 2: In ten, should we pull out of the Paris climbate

12
00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:37,040
Speaker 2: a cord. I've got some thoughts, but we'll talk to

13
00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:39,159
Speaker 2: fed farmers to see if they welcome this move or

14
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:42,240
Speaker 2: does it have fish hooks for our cornerstone industry of farming.

15
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:44,800
Speaker 2: And we'll talk about the Westport man who was struck

16
00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:48,680
Speaker 2: by lightning who claims his gun boots saved his life.

17
00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:51,440
Speaker 2: We'll have that story plus correspondence from around the world.

18
00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:54,120
Speaker 2: It's Gavin Gray from the UK today and correspondents from

19
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:56,120
Speaker 2: around New Zealand and you can have your say on

20
00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:58,480
Speaker 2: the text. The number is ninety two ninety two and

21
00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:03,840
Speaker 2: a small charge applies to five the agenda. At Wenesday,

22
00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:06,399
Speaker 2: the third of September, the stage is set in the

23
00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:09,759
Speaker 2: heart of Beijing for a grand display of power at

24
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:14,360
Speaker 2: military that's all been choreographed by President Jesimping.

25
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:15,680
Speaker 3: The parade is important.

26
00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:19,000
Speaker 2: It will highlight the discipline of our soldiers and our

27
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:20,240
Speaker 2: morale will be high.

28
00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:24,560
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, the parade will showcase China's strength and let

29
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:28,119
Speaker 4: the world know we are big country and we have power.

30
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:31,080
Speaker 2: Yes. Well, there's twenty six world leaders there looking at

31
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:33,440
Speaker 2: a new world order. Putins their body is there, and

32
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:36,160
Speaker 2: for the very first time, Kim Jong un. They're all

33
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:39,720
Speaker 2: fronting up together. Putin's been meeting with Xi ahead of

34
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 2: the parade to.

35
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:43,360
Speaker 4: Please I thank you for the warm welcome extended to

36
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 4: our entire delegation. Our close communication reflects the strategic nature

37
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:52,360
Speaker 4: of Russia China relations, which are at an unprecedentedally high level.

38
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 2: Now to America, where there's another legal loss for Donald trumpet.

39
00:01:56,400 --> 00:02:00,559
Speaker 2: Judge in California has blocked the president's move to send

40
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:04,400
Speaker 2: the National Guard into Los Angeles, saying it breached laws

41
00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:07,640
Speaker 2: banning military use on domestic soils. Now the ruling's on

42
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 2: hold for now and Donald Trump's expected to appeal.

43
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:14,520
Speaker 5: At this point, it only applies to California. The present

44
00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:18,520
Speaker 5: is thinking about sending troops into Chicago in the coming

45
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:22,640
Speaker 5: days to help with law enforcement. Obviously, that will create

46
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 5: another legal challenge from the state of Illinois in the

47
00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:29,760
Speaker 5: city of Chicago. I think what the administration will do

48
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 5: is argue that this is a district court and it

49
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:37,200
Speaker 5: doesn't really have the power to constrain the authority of

50
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:37,720
Speaker 5: the President.

51
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:51,200
Speaker 2: And finally some Madonna is After months of speculation, Anna

52
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 2: Wintur has announced a new top editor at both Enna

53
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:59,600
Speaker 2: announced in June. She of the Big, Big Sunglasses All

54
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,560
Speaker 2: Day Night. Anna announced in June that she was stepping

55
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:04,800
Speaker 2: down from the role she heild for almost forty years,

56
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:08,679
Speaker 2: and now Chloe Mahler, who currently serves as editor will

57
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 2: step up as the head of editor editorial content for

58
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:14,520
Speaker 2: Vogue US. Thank you, Anna, Bye bye.

59
00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 1: The first word on the News of the Day Early

60
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:22,720
Speaker 1: edition with Andrew Dickins and One Root Love Where You Live.

61
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:25,519
Speaker 2: News Talk sa'd be It is now ten minutes after

62
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:27,680
Speaker 2: five yesterday, the Prime Minister was on the good News

63
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:31,200
Speaker 2: trail talking up Amazon's seven point five billion dollar investment

64
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,520
Speaker 2: in data centers around Auckland. It's right up as aali.

65
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 2: He's long said that foreign investment is needed in New Zealand,

66
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 2: but to be faired, this has nothing to do with

67
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 2: the current government, and Christopher Luxen was actually quite open

68
00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 2: about that. Amazon actually unveiled the plans back in twenty

69
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:49,440
Speaker 2: twenty one, saying the data centers would open in twenty

70
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 2: twenty four. Construction, however, was holded in twenty twenty three,

71
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:55,240
Speaker 2: but they pulled their finger out last December. They said

72
00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 2: the data centres would open this year, and now they have.

73
00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:01,040
Speaker 2: The company has also confirmed yesday it is still investing

74
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 2: seven point five billion and would support an average of

75
00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:07,120
Speaker 2: more than one thousand full time equivalent jobs, and they

76
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,800
Speaker 2: reckon they will add ten point eight billion dollars to

77
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 2: our economy. So this is all good, isn't it. But

78
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:16,920
Speaker 2: some don't like it because it's Amazon, because it's Jeff Bezos,

79
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 2: because it eats up more of our precious power, and Amazon,

80
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 2: of course undermines local manufacturing and retailing and wage rates. However,

81
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:28,520
Speaker 2: Amazon will be employing in the high skilled areas, So

82
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:32,400
Speaker 2: this is telecommunication engineers, data wranglers, all those sorts of

83
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:36,279
Speaker 2: people and we should not quibble because all investment is

84
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:39,279
Speaker 2: good investment. It stirs the cash in the pot. So

85
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:42,479
Speaker 2: foreign investment is fine, but you know, local investment is

86
00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:47,279
Speaker 2: infinitely better because local investment means local profits stay in

87
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:50,160
Speaker 2: our country, and that really keeps the wheels going round.

88
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:53,360
Speaker 2: I heard some talkback on this with the Boys yesterday afternoon.

89
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 2: In one caller criticize the government's belief that foreign investment

90
00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:00,880
Speaker 2: is the answer to all our economic problems. He said,

91
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:04,359
Speaker 2: that's naive, and our problems run far deeper than a

92
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:07,880
Speaker 2: lack of foreign investment, and he's not wrong. In the weekend,

93
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:10,960
Speaker 2: Liam Dan wrote about our cost of living crisis. He

94
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,159
Speaker 2: did what good journalists do, found that a pound of

95
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,599
Speaker 2: butter is pretty much the same price all around the world,

96
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 2: and he said, we do not have a cost of

97
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 2: living crisis. We have a wage crisis, which means we

98
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:24,520
Speaker 2: can't afford our products and the services we need. And

99
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:27,440
Speaker 2: our low wages are not because of a lack of

100
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:31,920
Speaker 2: foreign investment, because actually there's already plenty of that about already,

101
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:36,520
Speaker 2: but because we have a wealth creation crisis. The real

102
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:39,719
Speaker 2: answer to our malaise is that New Zealanders need to

103
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:43,719
Speaker 2: make stuff and products that people overseas buy and New

104
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:48,720
Speaker 2: Zealanders need to invest in New Zealand businesses that create

105
00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:52,880
Speaker 2: the wealth. Andrew Dickens twelve after five and speaking of

106
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:57,479
Speaker 2: wealth to our cornerstone of our economy. The Global Dairy

107
00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:01,280
Speaker 2: Trade Auction was out today, prices down azero point three percent.

108
00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:04,400
Speaker 2: What can I tell you? Butter down two point five percent,

109
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:06,440
Speaker 2: So maybe we might see that powder butter go down

110
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:10,919
Speaker 2: a little bit and whole milk powder down minus five

111
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 2: point three percent. We're going to talk more about farming

112
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,400
Speaker 2: a bit later on. Farmers is joining us in the show.

113
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:20,360
Speaker 2: But next the universities. Too many people are giving away

114
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:25,400
Speaker 2: too many, too many easier degrees, too many easier masters,

115
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:28,680
Speaker 2: too many easier PhDs. There was a push to make

116
00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:31,480
Speaker 2: it harder, but that's been rejected by Shane Retti. We're

117
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:33,920
Speaker 2: going to ask a guy from Lincoln University and the

118
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:37,479
Speaker 2: chair of the university's New Zealand what he thinks about

119
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:40,240
Speaker 2: the minister's move. That's next on news Talk Zreb.

120
00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:46,360
Speaker 1: Get ahead of the Headlines on early edition with Andrew

121
00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:50,119
Speaker 1: Dickens and one roof Love where you Live News Talks.

122
00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:52,719
Speaker 2: That'd be it's fifteen out of five so a push

123
00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:55,839
Speaker 2: to make our universities more elite has been shot down.

124
00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 2: The government's rejected tougher entry rules and limits on who

125
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 2: can hand out or doctorates. It's accepted just twenty three

126
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:06,479
Speaker 2: of sixty three recommendations from our report from the University

127
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:09,760
Speaker 2: Advisory Group led by Peter Gluckman. So to talk about this,

128
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:12,560
Speaker 2: let's talk to an educator. Grant Edwards is the vice

129
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:15,720
Speaker 2: chancellor of Lincoln University and the university's New Zealand Chair

130
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:17,400
Speaker 2: and joins me this morning. Good morning to your Grant,

131
00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:21,920
Speaker 2: Good morning Andrew. Do you think we need more limits

132
00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:24,800
Speaker 2: on who can hand out our top academic qualifications?

133
00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:31,160
Speaker 3: No, I don't think we need further limits. Universities are

134
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:35,880
Speaker 3: the terchi institutions that do research led teaching in New Zealand,

135
00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:40,440
Speaker 3: and so believe that research only masters and research PSDs

136
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:42,800
Speaker 3: should be awarded in universities.

137
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:46,240
Speaker 2: But it's also those other universities that hand out all

138
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:48,320
Speaker 2: sorts of masters and all sorts of other things that

139
00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:51,440
Speaker 2: makes the people make the accusation that we've been dumbing

140
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:52,680
Speaker 2: down our tertiary sector.

141
00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:56,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's in terms of the high degrees in the

142
00:07:56,880 --> 00:08:00,120
Speaker 3: postgraduate space, we have a range of taught masters in

143
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:04,760
Speaker 3: particular and postgraduate qualifications. I think there I don't think

144
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:10,800
Speaker 3: there's any indication that those other institutes are actually dumbing

145
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:17,200
Speaker 3: down in handing out those particular qualifications. As particular interest

146
00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 3: here is in research masters and research PhDs, which with

147
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:26,920
Speaker 3: universities being research led, there's an important place that they're

148
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:28,280
Speaker 3: awarded in universities.

149
00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:31,119
Speaker 2: Okay, well that was that was my next question. Should

150
00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:34,400
Speaker 2: universities be the only ones that can award masters and PhDs?

151
00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:40,800
Speaker 3: I think, as I indicated to you, the in particular

152
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:46,400
Speaker 3: research masters and PhDs should be in general awarded by

153
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:48,920
Speaker 3: the universities in New Zealand.

154
00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:49,800
Speaker 4: Okay.

155
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:52,160
Speaker 2: I heard Sandra Gray on our news this morning at

156
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:55,240
Speaker 2: five am saying the real problem for our tertiary sector

157
00:08:55,400 --> 00:09:00,960
Speaker 2: is the funding model. Would you agree?

158
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:04,520
Speaker 3: In terms of the funding model, there are many funding

159
00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:07,160
Speaker 3: systems around the world, and most end up with some

160
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:11,199
Speaker 3: form of a private government funding contributions similar to us.

161
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:14,960
Speaker 3: We can always look at our funding system and how

162
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:18,319
Speaker 3: funding is distributed and how it's both education and research

163
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:24,280
Speaker 3: funding is directed towards qualifications particular disciplines. However, present probably

164
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:28,719
Speaker 3: a long slow reduction and funding in real terms is

165
00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:33,320
Speaker 3: acting against the long term needs of the country and

166
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:37,360
Speaker 3: probably just simply making changes in how we manage a

167
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:41,080
Speaker 3: diminishing pool of funding won't serve university is all the

168
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:42,479
Speaker 3: country well in the longer.

169
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:44,760
Speaker 2: Term, all right, Gret, itwas I thank you so much

170
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:47,640
Speaker 2: time grants the ad vice chances of Lincoln University and

171
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:51,280
Speaker 2: from Universities New Zealand. And you may remember Peter Gluckman

172
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:53,200
Speaker 2: actually talked to hit the last night. That is up

173
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:56,320
Speaker 2: on our website right now. Oh and more education news.

174
00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 2: Schools across New Zealand will be given cash to fix

175
00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:02,800
Speaker 2: up the failed experiment of open classrooms. This is a shock,

176
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:06,280
Speaker 2: this is a surprise. Education Minister Erica Stamford made that

177
00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:09,560
Speaker 2: announcement on the Paddigawa Has issue show, which investigated the

178
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:12,240
Speaker 2: problems the big old barn classrooms are causing. She said

179
00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:15,040
Speaker 2: schools could get money from a contestable fund based on

180
00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:18,079
Speaker 2: need to put in walls in the barns that have

181
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:20,560
Speaker 2: been made. But here's the thing that I found quite amazing.

182
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:24,040
Speaker 2: Erica revealed that she had ordered officials to determine the

183
00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:28,400
Speaker 2: scale of the problems because incredibly, the Ministry of Education

184
00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:32,120
Speaker 2: cannot tell us how many open planned classrooms that we

185
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:35,720
Speaker 2: have even though the claims are over five billion dollars

186
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:38,760
Speaker 2: has been spent on them. This is New Storks HEREB

187
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:40,839
Speaker 2: it is five nineteen. Here's some good news for you. A.

188
00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 2: Tourism numbers are up, but tourism people are not overly

189
00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,600
Speaker 2: happy with it all. Why well, that story is next

190
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:51,160
Speaker 2: here on New Storks Here be nineteen after five on your.

191
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:55,439
Speaker 1: Radio and online on iHeartRadio of Early Edition with Andrew

192
00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:59,319
Speaker 1: Dickens and one Root Love where you Live News Talks.

193
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:02,640
Speaker 2: That'd be five twenty one act in New Zealand. First, A,

194
00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:05,080
Speaker 2: we should be pulling out of the Paris Climate Accord

195
00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:07,320
Speaker 2: because we're overdoing it. Do you agree? Do you know

196
00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:09,400
Speaker 2: that you can send me a text? Two ninety two.

197
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:11,840
Speaker 2: Now here's the good news to us. Are back and

198
00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 2: they're here to spend. An international visitor survey shows there

199
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:18,040
Speaker 2: was a five percent increase in visitors over the last

200
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 2: year and their spending was up by four percent, as

201
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 2: pumping more than twelve billion dollars into the local economy.

202
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:28,959
Speaker 2: So I'm joined now by Sam McKinnon from Hospitality New Zealand.

203
00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:29,840
Speaker 2: Go on to your Sam.

204
00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:31,240
Speaker 6: Thank you to Andrew.

205
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:32,320
Speaker 2: You'd be a happy Camper.

206
00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:35,720
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, obviously were pleased to see a list

207
00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,680
Speaker 6: and spend and arrivals. It's all about things trending in

208
00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:41,720
Speaker 6: the right direction for us. So yeah, positive to hear

209
00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:42,800
Speaker 6: that announcement yesterday.

210
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:45,520
Speaker 2: So is five percent enough or could we kick it up?

211
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:51,319
Speaker 6: Of course we'd love more. Hospitality is also very reliant

212
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:55,040
Speaker 6: on the domestic market, and we're seeing a list there

213
00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:57,480
Speaker 6: as well. But you know it's similar sort of number

214
00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:00,640
Speaker 6: four percent, five percent into and seven percent christ Church.

215
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:04,520
Speaker 6: But you know, we've come through a really challenging period,

216
00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:06,480
Speaker 6: so I guess seeing that the seeing that things are

217
00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:09,240
Speaker 6: trending upwards is a real positive science for us.

218
00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:12,560
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, as you say, overseas tourism returning, but the

219
00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:16,360
Speaker 2: domestic spends returning, but maybe not enough is our real

220
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:19,160
Speaker 2: problem at the moment that Kewis are reluctant to open

221
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,439
Speaker 2: their wallets in the current economic environment.

222
00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:27,000
Speaker 6: Yeah, there's definitely a contributing sector. I mean, hospitality is

223
00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:31,360
Speaker 6: definitely a discretionary spend and households are struggling to cover

224
00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:34,680
Speaker 6: the cost that they've already got. So we're aware that

225
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:37,559
Speaker 6: any spend that we're getting as a benefit at the moment,

226
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:41,160
Speaker 6: But I guess as we've started to see some of

227
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:46,840
Speaker 6: those increases in income for households around OCR cuts and

228
00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:50,720
Speaker 6: that sort of stuff, where I guess some of seeing

229
00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:53,560
Speaker 6: some of that confidence flow back into hospitality spend, which

230
00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:56,640
Speaker 6: is all positive science heading towards the summer trading period.

231
00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:58,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, and as you would say to all keywis, get

232
00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:01,080
Speaker 2: out there and see your country and spin spin spend.

233
00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:06,479
Speaker 6: Yeah, well, if you're able to get out and support hospitality.

234
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:10,960
Speaker 2: Now, is this tourism uptick a bit more geographically targeted

235
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:13,560
Speaker 2: than in the past, like pre COVID, like more and

236
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:15,119
Speaker 2: more people just go into Queenstown.

237
00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:19,720
Speaker 6: I think Queensland has seen a decent left in that spend.

238
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:25,199
Speaker 6: I mean, obviously it's our primary tourism hotspot in New Zealand. See,

239
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:29,600
Speaker 6: you'd expect that to be to see a good chunk

240
00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:32,840
Speaker 6: of that left and spend. I mean, I guess overall,

241
00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:37,560
Speaker 6: you know there's across New Zealand councilors are trying to

242
00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:42,959
Speaker 6: work through their destination management plans. Everyone's trying to get

243
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:47,160
Speaker 6: a slice of the tourism pire. So as we see

244
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:50,360
Speaker 6: that those numbers left, overall, we should see a bit

245
00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:52,040
Speaker 6: more of that regional dispersal come through.

246
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:55,080
Speaker 2: Good stuff, Sam McKinnon, I thank you from Hospitality New Zealand.

247
00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:58,480
Speaker 2: And in more good news for the hospitality sector, it

248
00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:01,920
Speaker 2: was the government yesterday outline proposed changes to licensing rules

249
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:05,120
Speaker 2: for the events sector and events planning, because like if

250
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,040
Speaker 2: you go to a gig, you do like to get

251
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:09,280
Speaker 2: a beer and at the moment it's really hard to

252
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:10,800
Speaker 2: do that. But they're going to make that a lot

253
00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:14,320
Speaker 2: easier and the tourism sector is already appreciating this greatly.

254
00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:16,960
Speaker 2: It is News talks HEB. Should we pull out of

255
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:19,800
Speaker 2: the Paris Climate Accord? That's the question on the table

256
00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 2: and my thoughts.

257
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:24,920
Speaker 1: Next the early edition Full the Show podcast on iHeartRadio

258
00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:27,040
Speaker 1: powered by News TALKSB.

259
00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:30,800
Speaker 2: Talks B Wednesday morning. I'm Andrew Dickinson for Ryan Bridge

260
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,680
Speaker 2: who's on holiday. He'll be back next week. So the

261
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:36,480
Speaker 2: question put on the table yesterday should we pull out

262
00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:39,560
Speaker 2: of the Paris Climate Accord, got the backing of ACT

263
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:42,760
Speaker 2: and New Zealand. First they said we should. We're over

264
00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:45,640
Speaker 2: doing it, and of course my first reaction is, of

265
00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:48,560
Speaker 2: course we should pull out. Yes, the thing isn't working.

266
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:51,840
Speaker 2: It's never worked. It's always felt like something the world

267
00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:54,520
Speaker 2: does to make itself feel like it's doing something even

268
00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:57,840
Speaker 2: though it's doing nothing. When you combine that, the Paris

269
00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:00,880
Speaker 2: accords with the emissions trading scheme, which is a giant

270
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:03,960
Speaker 2: Ponzi scheme made to make coldplate feel better about touring

271
00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:06,960
Speaker 2: the world at jetplanes, meanwhile filling up our pastures with

272
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:11,440
Speaker 2: trees because of their guilt. The whole thing seems useless.

273
00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:16,359
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, well meaning, but useless. So why be involved?

274
00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:19,560
Speaker 2: And we're so little? New Zealand's biggest contribution to CO

275
00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:23,000
Speaker 2: two numbers is our farming, which is a fairly benign

276
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:26,480
Speaker 2: polluter because the world needs food just as much as

277
00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:30,720
Speaker 2: it needs oxygen. The world doesn't need more cheap genes

278
00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:33,200
Speaker 2: and plastic crap, but the people who make that stuff

279
00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:36,680
Speaker 2: are merely pumping rubbish into our atmosphere. We're making food here,

280
00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:39,680
Speaker 2: so why should we be punishing the cornerstone of our

281
00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:42,760
Speaker 2: economy making the food. We're in the scheme of things.

282
00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:46,560
Speaker 2: It contributes so little while the real polluters keep on polluting.

283
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:48,920
Speaker 2: So yeah, let's stand up, tell the world they're in

284
00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:51,640
Speaker 2: a fool's paradise of virtue signaling, and let's get on

285
00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:56,040
Speaker 2: with feeding the people. We can. But the rest of

286
00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:59,400
Speaker 2: the world, with the exception of the United States, still

287
00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:02,400
Speaker 2: believe in this, and they're the ones buying our food.

288
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:04,920
Speaker 2: And there are also the ones who will find any

289
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:08,560
Speaker 2: way to blacklist our awesome agricultural products. Boy, the Euros,

290
00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:11,320
Speaker 2: the Europeans, if they can find a chink in our armor,

291
00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:13,680
Speaker 2: they will, They'll say, you can't bring your butter here.

292
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:16,600
Speaker 2: So pulling out of the parade may see us cutting

293
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:19,760
Speaker 2: off our nose despite our face. It may reduce the

294
00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:22,640
Speaker 2: compliance costs on our farmers in the first instance, but

295
00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:24,240
Speaker 2: what's the point of that if it makes the rest

296
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 2: of the world turn their back on our milk and

297
00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:30,400
Speaker 2: butter of meat because they think we're filthy pollutzers. So

298
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:33,600
Speaker 2: Act in New Zealand First may think that this posturing

299
00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:37,320
Speaker 2: is helping our farmers, but in fact, maybe it could

300
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:41,240
Speaker 2: be penalizing them more if heavily and maybe Act in

301
00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:43,440
Speaker 2: New Zealand First er are just play acting this for votes,

302
00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:46,000
Speaker 2: just as much as the Paris Climate Accords are play

303
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:48,800
Speaker 2: acting for the environment. So look, let's call this thing

304
00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:52,320
Speaker 2: for what it is. Say it doesn't work. But rather

305
00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:56,840
Speaker 2: than just pulling out a bit of a flounce, we

306
00:16:56,840 --> 00:16:59,160
Speaker 2: should be advocating for real change to the accords and

307
00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:02,720
Speaker 2: the policies and to actually get on with helping the environment.

308
00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:07,960
Speaker 2: You don't need some towny on the radio talking about this.

309
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:10,240
Speaker 2: We're going to talk to the Fed farmers just before six.

310
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:13,480
Speaker 2: Is this going to help farmers or like I pointed out,

311
00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:18,520
Speaker 2: could it actually punish farmers by preventing us from exporting

312
00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:21,280
Speaker 2: the very stuff that our economy is built on. We'll see.

313
00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:24,240
Speaker 2: Also still to come. I've got a great story about

314
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:26,320
Speaker 2: a guy in Westport who got hit by lightning. He

315
00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:29,680
Speaker 2: reckons its gun boots saved his life. We've got Gavin

316
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:32,400
Speaker 2: Gray from the UK as well as the UK government.

317
00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:35,240
Speaker 2: It's even further than the doggy Doo Doo when it

318
00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:40,680
Speaker 2: comes to their economy and US is next. This is addition.

319
00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:43,120
Speaker 7: Sometimes I just can.

320
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:51,320
Speaker 1: Views and views you trust. To start your day. It's

321
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:55,560
Speaker 1: early edition with Andrew Dickens and One roof Love, Where

322
00:17:55,560 --> 00:18:04,120
Speaker 1: you Live, News Talks at Ben Cold.

323
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:12,199
Speaker 2: You goodbye, example, Welcome to your Wednesday. I'm Antree Dickinson

324
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:15,600
Speaker 2: for Lion runs back on Monday. It's fair to say

325
00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:18,280
Speaker 2: that everyone's saying get out of the Paris climate of cords.

326
00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:21,320
Speaker 2: We'll find out what the farmers believed. Just before six o'clock.

327
00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:23,480
Speaker 2: I'll give you some of the reaction that's come from

328
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:26,520
Speaker 2: farmers actually later on in the program, speaking of farmers,

329
00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:28,680
Speaker 2: did you hear this story. It's a Westport dairy farm

330
00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:30,919
Speaker 2: manager who was out and about Monday and he got

331
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:34,119
Speaker 2: hit by lightning and he reckons. His gun boot saved

332
00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:36,880
Speaker 2: his life. Chris Wilson was on his squad bike herding

333
00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:39,440
Speaker 2: cows into the milking shed about six am on Monday.

334
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:42,200
Speaker 2: Then when lightning struck, he saw the whitest light he's

335
00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:44,160
Speaker 2: ever seen. He passed out. He woke up stumped over

336
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:45,800
Speaker 2: the bike and he couldn't see for about five or

337
00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:48,879
Speaker 2: ten minutes. He gathered up all the cows and he

338
00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:50,880
Speaker 2: went home and had some breakfast, and then over breakfast,

339
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:53,200
Speaker 2: he spewed up a little, and as missus said, you'd

340
00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:54,639
Speaker 2: better go to the doctor. So he went to the

341
00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:57,000
Speaker 2: doctor and Buller Hospital picked him up. And he's got

342
00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:00,080
Speaker 2: migraines and stuff, and this lightning burnt a whole and

343
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:03,159
Speaker 2: his gun boots. So he's written to scale up to

344
00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:05,960
Speaker 2: tell the gunboots, those gun boots saved my life. A

345
00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:08,480
Speaker 2: little bit of rubber insulation there. If you've been grounded,

346
00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:12,240
Speaker 2: maybe he could have died. Management should probably have told

347
00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:14,520
Speaker 2: him to stay in during the storm. But hold on,

348
00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:19,720
Speaker 2: Chris's management. He's the farmer. He made his decision to

349
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:22,080
Speaker 2: go out in the storm, which brings me to the

350
00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:25,160
Speaker 2: closure of Cornwall Park during the weekend in Orkan. It's

351
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:27,919
Speaker 2: been criticized as an abundance of caution, taking away our

352
00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:32,280
Speaker 2: personal responsibility. But hold on, using my power of personal responsibility,

353
00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:34,879
Speaker 2: you weren't going to find me wandering around one hundred

354
00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:37,840
Speaker 2: year old trees in the middle of the storm. So yeah, okay,

355
00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:40,800
Speaker 2: Cornwall Park may have gone too far, but surely all

356
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:43,119
Speaker 2: they did was what anyone with an ounce of common

357
00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:45,879
Speaker 2: sense would have done anyway. And Chris, I'm glad you're okay,

358
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:49,240
Speaker 2: but next time, don't go out in the storms. Andrew Dickens,

359
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:51,600
Speaker 2: it's twenty two to six esco around the country to

360
00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:55,119
Speaker 2: our tiger we go Callum Proctor, good morning to you morning, Andrew.

361
00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:57,960
Speaker 2: So in Toneda and Queenstown people are using the buses.

362
00:19:59,640 --> 00:19:59,959
Speaker 6: They are.

363
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:03,359
Speaker 8: The Otago Regional Council runs the public transport here and

364
00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:07,320
Speaker 8: they're reporting a seven year high four bus patronage. In fact,

365
00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:11,040
Speaker 8: record breaking numbers. Toned and passengers made more than three

366
00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:14,760
Speaker 8: point four million trips between July last year and June

367
00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:18,200
Speaker 8: this year. That's a thirty seven percent increase since twenty

368
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:22,200
Speaker 8: eighteen nineteen, surpassing the heights of those pre COVID levels.

369
00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:26,080
Speaker 8: Queenstown recorded nearly two million trips, thirty three percent rise

370
00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:28,960
Speaker 8: compared to seven years ago. The regional Council says it's

371
00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:33,560
Speaker 8: encouraging to see these numbers drove despite MZTA subsidies declining. However,

372
00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:35,880
Speaker 8: they also recognize there's still work to be done, including

373
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:39,120
Speaker 8: exploring public transport options in Omoru.

374
00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:40,600
Speaker 2: And what's the weather lake if you wait to get

375
00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:41,160
Speaker 2: the bus stop.

376
00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:44,800
Speaker 8: It's chilly this morning, frosts an areas here, but a

377

384
00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:07,040
Speaker 10: some makeshift shelters along the northern banks of the Wymac River.

385
00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:11,200
Speaker 10: Pictures shared to our newsroom show several of these structures

386
00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:14,720
Speaker 10: and sort of camping setups, including tents, but also wooden

387
00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:18,240
Speaker 10: structures which have been erected along the banks since the

388
00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:22,240
Speaker 10: white baiting season started on Monday. A council spokesperson says

397
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:44,040
Speaker 2: Good morning. You're a man of mystery. All I have

398
00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:46,520
Speaker 2: from you is disorder around the region, and I have

399
00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:48,640
Speaker 2: no idea what kind of disorder you're talking about.

400
00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:51,280
Speaker 11: Yeah, let me tell you, not good, as you can imagine.

401
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 11: We seem to be seeing a bit of a spate

402
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:55,920
Speaker 11: of crime right across the Lower North Island lately. You've

403
00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:59,680
Speaker 11: had these gang shootings in LEAVENLA last month, a gang

404

409
00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:18,280
Speaker 11: youths after banning them from her shop and trying to

410
00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:20,680
Speaker 11: call police. This was a group of young girls. Police

411
00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:23,520
Speaker 11: never came. We hope she's okay. We're trying to look

412
00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:26,960
Speaker 11: for an update. Meanwhile, three people also charged after allegedly

417
00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:42,840
Speaker 2: Wellington. It's a great place when it's a nice day

418
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:44,160
Speaker 2: speaking which how is the day?

Speaker 11: Well, it is fine today, lighter winds getting up to

428
00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:11,520

Speaker 9: The local businesses, the Coromandal Business Association says, look, it's

432

Speaker 9: tourists there, good news, increase their customer base as well.

434
00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:30,200
Speaker 2: Two things on that. Number one, when you do that,

435
00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:33,000
Speaker 2: you're lucky to see some dolphins in Orca because you

436
00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:35,080
Speaker 2: go right across the Firth of Terms. It's an amazing

437
00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:37,919
Speaker 2: ninety minute ride. I haven't been on it because they

438
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:39,040
Speaker 2: keep on closing it down.

439
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:40,199
Speaker 1: Yes, oh okay, right.

440
00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:42,200
Speaker 2: The other thing, I know a bloke who actually bought

441
00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:43,680
Speaker 2: some land who was going to build a batch in

442
00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:46,240
Speaker 2: Coromandal because he didn't want to actually do the big

443
00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:49,040
Speaker 2: drive because the drive is enormous and he wanted to

444
00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:51,400
Speaker 2: take the boat. But then so he bought the land

445
00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:54,560
Speaker 2: and then the boat stopped. Yes, of course, yeah, he

446
00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:55,359
Speaker 2: was not happy.

447
00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:58,119
Speaker 9: He was not happy, but hey, let's be positive about this.

448
00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:02,320
Speaker 2: Yeahs back, it's but only on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

449
00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:03,600
Speaker 7: Baby for starters.

450
00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:04,280
Speaker 2: And now how's the.

451
00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:07,920
Speaker 9: Weather partly cloudy, isolated morning, Charlesbourn a afternoon find spells

452
00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:10,200
Speaker 9: sixteen is a high here in Auckland.

453
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:11,960
Speaker 2: And I thank you it is now seventeen to six.

454
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:15,719
Speaker 2: The TEXTUS ninety two ninety two small charge applies textas say,

455
00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:18,160
Speaker 2: is great to see more bus users into Nedin. Shame

456
00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:20,720
Speaker 2: on the council announcement yesterday that they're increasing the bus

457
00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:24,200
Speaker 2: fares go figure. You know, there's no public transport that

458
00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:28,040
Speaker 2: actually covers costs, and you either get the bus fares

459
00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:30,040
Speaker 2: go up or you get the rates go up. So

460
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:32,200
Speaker 2: good luck with that one. But I thank you in

461
00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:34,800
Speaker 2: a moment Gavin Gray out of the UK. It's always

462
00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:36,800
Speaker 2: pleasing to see that the UK is an even worse

463
00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:41,440
Speaker 2: financial stick than we are. How well, i'll tell you next. Now,

464
00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:43,840
Speaker 2: if you run a small business, you will know the

465
00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:46,000
Speaker 2: pain of waiting to get paid. You finish the job,

466
00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:48,280
Speaker 2: you send the invoice, and then you spend weeks chasing

467
00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:50,440
Speaker 2: people up like some sort of deck collector, and it

468
00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:55,240
Speaker 2: hits your cash flow. Zero's Tap to Pay powered by Stripe,

469
00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:57,679
Speaker 2: changes all that your customer taps the card on your

470
00:24:57,680 --> 00:24:59,679
Speaker 2: phone and boom, you're paid on the spot. No fancy

471
00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:03,160
Speaker 2: pain terminal needed, just the zero accounting app on your phone.

472
00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:05,760
Speaker 2: And here's a really smart bit. Once the payment goes

473
00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:09,480
Speaker 2: through the invoices automatically marked as paid in zero, ready

474
00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:12,640
Speaker 2: to be reconciled. Less admin less mucking about with paperwork,

475
00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:16,800
Speaker 2: more time running your actual business. It's secure, it's instant,

476
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:18,960
Speaker 2: and it keeps your cash flow moving instead of grinding

477
00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:21,320
Speaker 2: to a halt every month. Except payments on the spot

478
00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:24,120
Speaker 2: as soon as the job's complete. No more awkward I'll

479
00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:26,920
Speaker 2: get that of invoice to you later. Make conversations. For

480
00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:30,280
Speaker 2: small businesses, this could genuinely be a game changer. Less

481
00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:33,159
Speaker 2: time chasing late pavements, more time focusing on what you

482
00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:36,600
Speaker 2: do best. So supercharge your business with zero tap to pay.

483
00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:39,800
Speaker 2: Getting paid just got a whole lot easier search, zero.

484
00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:44,600
Speaker 1: Tap to pay, International correspondence with ends and eye insurance,

485
00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:46,800
Speaker 1: peace of mind for New Zealand business.

486
00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:49,639
Speaker 2: Have been great from the UK. Welcome to the program,

487
00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:53,760
Speaker 2: Hi there, Andrew So. UK government long term borrowing costs

488
00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:56,800
Speaker 2: have reached their highest level since nineteen ninety eight. That's

489
00:25:56,880 --> 00:25:57,960
Speaker 2: not good economic news.

490
00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:01,480
Speaker 7: No, that is not good. So this basically is the

491
00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:04,960
Speaker 7: interest rates at which we the British, are being charged

492
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:07,320
Speaker 7: for people that want to lend us money, and we

493
00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:10,760
Speaker 7: need that money because we are running at a massive,

494
00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:15,439
Speaker 7: massive overdraft, a massive national debt and the thirty year

495
00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:18,080
Speaker 7: government bonds, so that's the period of time it's paid

496
00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:20,960
Speaker 7: over with, known as the YELD. They jumped to five

497
00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:24,040
Speaker 7: point seventy two percent. So that means all of a sudden,

498
00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:27,159
Speaker 7: all of the forecasts that the government has been relying

499
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:31,000
Speaker 7: on to basically outline the income and expenditure that it

500
00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:34,479
Speaker 7: wants to make and to bring in is all now

501
00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:37,440
Speaker 7: out of the window because suddenly everything's getting much more expensive.

502
00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:37,640
Speaker 2: Now.

503
00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:40,480
Speaker 7: The UK is not alone in seeing these borrowing costs arise,

504
00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:44,239
Speaker 7: Andrew German, French and Dutch bonds also climbing to their

505
00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:47,600
Speaker 7: highest Why. Well, a lot is the instability coming out

506
00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:51,840
Speaker 7: of America with these trade policies and the upcoming confidence

507
00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:54,320
Speaker 7: vote in the French government as well weighing in people's

508
00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:56,560
Speaker 7: minds here in the EU. But this, I think is

509
00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:59,120
Speaker 7: now going to push this government here in the UK

510
00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:04,200
Speaker 7: into raising income tax levels or at least other big

511
00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:09,960
Speaker 7: taxes here because if the government wants to to remain

512
00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:13,000
Speaker 7: within its tax and spending rules, it's going to have

513
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:13,639
Speaker 7: to do something.

514
00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:18,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay. Meanwhile, another CEO who has lost his job

515
00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:22,040
Speaker 2: after a romantic relationship with a direct subordinate.

516
00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:23,440
Speaker 5: Yes.

517
00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:26,840
Speaker 7: Now, this is the Swiss food giant Nesle. Of course,

518
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:30,440
Speaker 7: they're famous for things like Kitcat chocolate bars and espresso

519
00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:35,280
Speaker 7: coffee capsules, etc. Say that Lauren Frize has been dismissed

520
00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:39,120
Speaker 7: with immediate effect following an investigation led by an independent

521
00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:43,720
Speaker 7: director and Nesle's chair. It's understood but not confirmed. The

522
00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:47,320
Speaker 7: inquiry into his behavior was triggered by a report made

523
00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:51,480
Speaker 7: through his company's whistle blowing channel. These of course reports

524
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:54,159
Speaker 7: now about you know, how employees should feel free to

525
00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:58,920
Speaker 7: report anything that they think is untoward. And the Nesle

526
00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:02,040
Speaker 7: chair said it was a necessary decision the values of

527
00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:05,520
Speaker 7: the company and governance. They're very strong foundations for the company.

528
00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:08,399
Speaker 7: They thank him for his many years of service. But

529
00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:11,960
Speaker 7: this is certainly a bit of a shock. The Financial

530
00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:15,320
Speaker 7: Times here in London reporting that concerns were raised about

531
00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:18,800
Speaker 7: his relationship with an employee earlier this year. After an

532
00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:23,080
Speaker 7: internal investigation, the claims were found to be unsubstantiated, but

533
00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:27,800
Speaker 7: the complaints persisted, and according to that newspaper, Nesle conducted

534
00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:31,280
Speaker 7: another investigation with help from an outside council, after which

535
00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:34,320
Speaker 7: the claims were upheld. Now this, you'll know, of course,

536
00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:36,360
Speaker 7: is the longest in a long line. We've had other

537
00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:39,840
Speaker 7: companies here in the UK with similar issues. The BP

538
00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:42,640
Speaker 7: chief executive who led the oil job for three years,

539
00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:45,600
Speaker 7: Bernard Looney, he had to quit after admitting he was

540
00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:49,760
Speaker 7: not fully transparent over allegations about him. Steve Easterbrook was

541
00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:52,920
Speaker 7: fired by mc donald's in twenty nineteen after it found

542
00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:56,440
Speaker 7: he had consensual relationship with an employee, and that led

543
00:28:56,480 --> 00:29:01,120
Speaker 7: to a rather larger financial fine in the US misleading investors.

544
00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:05,560
Speaker 7: So companies very attuned now to perhaps things that twenty

545
00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:08,000
Speaker 7: thirty years ago might not have made the headline.

546
00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:09,720
Speaker 2: Absolutely don't fall with the crew and I thank you

547
00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:12,240
Speaker 2: so much, Gavin Gray from the UK. Or Meanwhile, I'm

548
00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:14,560
Speaker 2: seeing the BBC reporting that the Northern Lights are back

549
00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:17,480
Speaker 2: in big time and that means that the Australia, the

550
00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:20,520
Speaker 2: Aurora Australia is the southern lights. Our lights are back

551
00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:22,080
Speaker 2: as well, and apparently you're going to get a good

552
00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:26,640
Speaker 2: displayed this weekend. It is ten to six. All right,

553
00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:29,400
Speaker 2: our our climate targets getting in the way of our productivity.

554
00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:31,520
Speaker 2: Both act in New Zealand first have pledged to pull

555
00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:33,880
Speaker 2: out of the Paris Accords on their serious changes have made.

556
00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:36,479
Speaker 2: They say this is to stop putting pressure on farmers.

557
00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:40,760
Speaker 2: So how do farmers feel about this move? Wayne Langford

558
00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:43,400
Speaker 2: is Fed Farmers National President and joins me, Now go

559
00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:44,040
Speaker 2: on into your.

560
00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:45,520
Speaker 12: Wayne, Good morning, Andrew.

561
00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:46,160
Speaker 2: What do you reckon?

562
00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:50,360
Speaker 12: I mean it's the start of an encouraging conversation, but

563
00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:53,880
Speaker 12: I mean it's a bit of political bostero and I

564
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:56,560
Speaker 12: think really well, we'd like is some action being taken

565
00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:58,880
Speaker 12: to to actually make those changes rather than just talking

566
00:29:58,920 --> 00:29:59,200
Speaker 12: about it.

567
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:02,120
Speaker 2: You all know that the players Climate Accords for the

568
00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:05,640
Speaker 2: globe and not working. The omission trading scheme is not working.

569
00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:08,760
Speaker 2: It needs to be changed. But wood pulling out of

570
00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:12,120
Speaker 2: the accords actually put us in the naughty corner and

571
00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:13,320
Speaker 2: hurt farmers more.

572
00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:17,440
Speaker 12: Well, that's you know, that's certainly one view on it.

573
00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:20,880
Speaker 12: That the challenge for us is why the government just

574
00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:23,680
Speaker 12: getting on and making the changes that are needed so

575
00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:26,440
Speaker 12: that not only the rules that can prosper, but also

576
00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:28,960
Speaker 12: the rest of the New Zealand compostor because actually mentioned

577
00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:31,880
Speaker 12: it is holding back some of the New Zealand's prosperity.

578
00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:35,720
Speaker 12: And that's what the two parties they're talking about. They're saying, Hey,

579
00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:38,440
Speaker 12: how do we adjust this to make this a fit

580
00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:40,520
Speaker 12: better of what New Zealand is? Well, the last time

581
00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:42,360
Speaker 12: I checked, how you guys are in government? Why don't

582
00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:42,840
Speaker 12: you change it?

583
00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:45,400
Speaker 2: Get on and door, So let me get this right.

584
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:48,560
Speaker 2: Are you saying, yes, stay in the Paris Climate Accords,

585
00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:50,320
Speaker 2: but for God's sake, try and make some changes to

586
00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:53,440
Speaker 2: the whole things. Meanwhile, earn our domestic economy, make things

587
00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:54,080
Speaker 2: more rational.

588
00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:57,080
Speaker 12: Yeah, what we're saying is the climate rules will set

589
00:30:57,120 --> 00:30:59,920
Speaker 12: for ourselves a New Zealand hero. What causing the problem

590
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:03,320
Speaker 12: not necessarily the Paris Agreement in itself. So we've got

591
00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:07,480
Speaker 12: overly ambitious methane targets where we're planning. We're doing full

592
00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:11,560
Speaker 12: farm from conversions into forestry conversions. But we were still

593
00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:16,480
Speaker 12: talking about planning pricing egg commissions. Why don't we just

594
00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:19,120
Speaker 12: scrapple that. Why don't we get that sorted so that

595
00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:22,080
Speaker 12: farmers know where we're sitting and we know what we're

596
00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:22,760
Speaker 12: doing in the country.

597
00:31:22,840 --> 00:31:25,000
Speaker 2: I'm getting a few techs some farmers right now who's saying, look,

598
00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:27,240
Speaker 2: I'm carbon neutral already. You know, we're actually doing a

599
00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:30,120
Speaker 2: very good job of producing very efficient meat with as

600
00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:33,959
Speaker 2: low a mission as you can possibly have. So are

601
00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:37,240
Speaker 2: farmers getting more appreciated with this new government than before?

602
00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:41,560
Speaker 12: Definitely, definitely they are. And we're certainly seeing that in

603
00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:44,080
Speaker 12: the results that we're getting thrown our surveying as well.

604
00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:47,480
Speaker 12: And while there is a lot of sentiment out there

605
00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:50,040
Speaker 12: around going out of Paris, I think when you dig

606
00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:52,440
Speaker 12: deeper and they're look into what's actually holding Paris packet

607
00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:55,040
Speaker 12: is actually what we're setting on ourselves as the government.

608
00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:57,600
Speaker 12: And that's what that's what we're saying about this announcement.

609
00:31:57,640 --> 00:32:00,920
Speaker 12: He we appreciate the conversation. We like what you're talking

610
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:03,800
Speaker 12: about here both acting news on person. But by the

611
00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:06,200
Speaker 12: way you guys are in government, you guys can make

612
00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:08,600
Speaker 12: these changes. Now, just get on and make these changes

613
00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:10,160
Speaker 12: that farmers have got a clear road to heat.

614
00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:13,040

Speaker 2: need a towny on the radio talking about the Climate

621
00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:32,360
Speaker 2: Accords for farmers. So here's a text from farmer called Grunt,

622
00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:34,520
Speaker 2: and Grant says, I'm a small farm. I have plenty

623
00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:36,680
Speaker 2: of trees and grass on the property to combat carbon

624
00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:41,719
Speaker 2: Our country shouldn't do anything different. We are relatively carbon neutral,

625
00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:44,400
Speaker 2: and we produce the best meat, and God knows the

626
00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:46,480
Speaker 2: world needs the meat. And as I said before, we're

627
00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:50,000
Speaker 2: kind of a benign polluter compared to everybody else. And

628
00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:52,240
Speaker 2: Mike Hosking joins me, now, good morning morning A.

629
00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:55,560
Speaker 13: Hoggard on this former head of pharmacyse Days and ACTMP.

630
00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:58,320
Speaker 13: Of course, it's I don't subscribe to that old argument,

631
00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:00,479
Speaker 13: the old argument that you know, we don't pull. Therefore,

632
00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:03,680
Speaker 13: the whole idea behind it was that we play our part,

633
00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:06,080
Speaker 13: we are seen to do our part. And the most

634
00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:09,479
Speaker 13: relevant argument I've heard this morning is the trade connection,

635
00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:13,360
Speaker 13: because a lot of people write it into FDA's and

636
00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:15,400
Speaker 13: so it's carbon miles and all that sort of stuff.

637
00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:18,760
Speaker 13: But ultimately, if it doesn't work, which it isn't, and

638
00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:20,880
Speaker 13: it never was going to. Then you've got to ask

639
00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:23,360
Speaker 13: the question eventually, don't you If it's not working and

640
00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:25,640
Speaker 13: we're not doing what it's set out to do, what's

641
00:33:25,720 --> 00:33:26,000
Speaker 13: the point.

642
00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:27,600
Speaker 2: That's the point. But at the same time, if you

643
00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:29,520
Speaker 2: pull out and then at the European say, oh well,

644
00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:31,600
Speaker 2: we're not going to take any of your milkle meat

645
00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:31,800
Speaker 2: to me.

646
00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:35,120
Speaker 13: Said that America is pulling out bad knock in Britain

647
00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:36,880
Speaker 13: when she gets to be Prime minister, which she will

648
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:38,280
Speaker 13: or that party will one day.

649
00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:39,120
Speaker 2: They're pulling out.

650
00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:41,960
Speaker 13: So there's a move on. So I see more simply

651
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:43,600
Speaker 13: reading the room. So well, talk to hohog out about

652
00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:45,480
Speaker 13: that and the tourism numbers this morning as well. And

653
00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:47,200
Speaker 13: a wine by the way, got some very good news

654
00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:49,600
Speaker 13: on one and a blow. The best story actually is

655
00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:53,280
Speaker 13: the bloke who's won a competition to design Liam Lawson's

656
00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:54,880
Speaker 13: helmet and has won it.

657
