1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,160
Speaker 1: Right, Barry Soper, Senior Political Correspondence with that's hallo, Barry.

2
00:00:02,880 --> 00:00:04,760
Speaker 2: Good afternoon. Who the wires are so much cake in

3
00:00:04,800 --> 00:00:05,640
Speaker 2: the office today?

4
00:00:05,800 --> 00:00:08,959
Speaker 1: Go on, then, go on, just get it out of

5
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:10,160
Speaker 1: your system.

6
00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:13,840
Speaker 2: Dear, I go on, Happy birthday, Thank you.

7
00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:16,759
Speaker 1: Very much, Barry. Jeez, how long did you think about?

8
00:00:16,760 --> 00:00:18,200
Speaker 1: How am I going to get that out there?

9
00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:21,720
Speaker 2: No? No, I didn't mind when I looked away.

10
00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:27,160
Speaker 1: Look, you've absolutely excelled, right the GDP, This this was alarming,

11
00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:28,080
Speaker 1: this number, wasn't it.

12
00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:30,280
Speaker 2: Well, yes, it was alarming, was much more than anybody

13
00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:32,680
Speaker 2: had protected. But look, Adrian Or you'd have to say,

14
00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:36,680
Speaker 2: did a great job engineering a recession. Like the government

15
00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:38,760
Speaker 2: he was working for at the time, he clearly didn't

16
00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:41,920
Speaker 2: know how to get out of it. So they're still

17
00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:44,440
Speaker 2: in the maya. But I think I think we've turned

18
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:47,159
Speaker 2: the corner, and I think the third court will be

19
00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:49,080
Speaker 2: better than one we're in at the moment, and it'll

20
00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:50,720
Speaker 2: be even better than the last quarter.

21
00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:53,320
Speaker 1: Well, it has to be better than because geez, there's

22
00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:56,160
Speaker 1: no way it could get worse exactly. Okay, So the

23
00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 1: spat between David Seymour and Winston Peters about Gaza, Yeah,

24
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:00,680
Speaker 1: how big a deal.

25
00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:02,960
Speaker 2: Is this, Well, it's not such a big deal, I

26
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:05,199
Speaker 2: must say, it's been made a big deal by some

27
00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:09,400
Speaker 2: sections of the media. But the interesting thing is that

28
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:14,240
Speaker 2: even though Seymour has been sniping away at Palestine and

29
00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:17,199
Speaker 2: what New Zealand should be doing, it's really the Foreign

30
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:22,319
Speaker 2: Affairs Minister's job and act hasn't opted out of any

31
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:25,800
Speaker 2: formal agree to disagree position, which is what you meant

32
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:30,440
Speaker 2: to do in a coalition. Nevertheless, standing in for the

33
00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:34,959
Speaker 2: Prime Minister today during question time, David Seymour was quizzed

34
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:39,120
Speaker 2: by Labour's carmel Sepaloni over the bickering between him and

35
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:44,320
Speaker 2: Winston Peters. Interestingly, Seymour not once referred to Winston by

36
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 2: a name.

37
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 3: Here they are our position will be made clear by

38
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 3: the right minister at the right place, at the right time,

39
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:52,840
Speaker 3: which is coming up very soon.

40
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:56,720
Speaker 4: Was the Minister of Foreign Affairs correct when he said

41
00:01:56,720 --> 00:02:00,080
Speaker 4: that the Deputy Prime Minister David Seymour was quite so,

42
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:04,480
Speaker 4: it's talking out of his field end quote regarding the

43
00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:07,560
Speaker 4: government's position on Palestinian statehood.

44
00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 3: Actually he was speaking as the leader of his party

45
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:13,800
Speaker 3: and that's a matter for him which I don't have

46
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 3: a responsibility for.

47
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:19,120
Speaker 4: When will he instruct his Deputy Prime Minister and his

48
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 4: Minister for Foreign Affairs to stop bickering.

49
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:28,200
Speaker 3: We have a team that works together very effectively, dangerously effective,

50
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:30,360
Speaker 3: in such a way that it's going to keep the

51
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:34,080
Speaker 3: opposition right where they are for a very long time.

52
00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:37,880
Speaker 2: Wishful thinking, that's probably true though.

53
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,680
Speaker 1: All right, what's Jane Jones banging on about the dolphins?

54
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,680
Speaker 2: Oh? I love this because apparently there was a twenty

55
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 2: twenty one report issued by the government suggesting that the

56
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 2: population of hectors and Marui dolphins it's about fifty four

57
00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:56,240
Speaker 2: or even as few as forty. A question from the

58
00:02:56,320 --> 00:03:01,639
Speaker 2: Greens had the Minister of Oceans and Fishery Shane Jones,

59
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:06,200
Speaker 2: are casting doubt on the very existence of the dolphin species.

60
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:09,760
Speaker 5: Over the years, a host of restrictive measures have been

61
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,400
Speaker 5: put in place for this mythological creature, sadly known as

62
00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:18,120
Speaker 5: Maui's dolphins. This has had a significant impact on the

63
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:21,320
Speaker 5: ability and the viability of the fishery sector. But we

64
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:24,440
Speaker 5: should not devalue the work that has already taken place

65
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:27,920
Speaker 5: on the west coast of Deco or Mahwi to provide

66
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:33,560
Speaker 5: remedial measures for this declining population of mythical Hector's dolphins.

67
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,840
Speaker 5: But I will not be guilt tripped about mythical creatures

68
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:38,640
Speaker 5: living off the west coast of Taranaki.

69
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:43,040
Speaker 1: He just thinks they're the same dolphin based he says

70
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 1: they are the same dolphins.

71
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 2: I'll talk to him after that. He said they are

72
00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:49,800
Speaker 2: They've never been different dolphins. That's his view. I kem

73
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:51,680
Speaker 2: all right, not the Greens view that much.

74
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 1: So are you going to You're going to be tuning

75
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:54,480
Speaker 1: in for Bossy's valedictory.

76
00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 2: Well, one of the few contributions that made to politics

77
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:04,280
Speaker 2: came today and one of Benjamin Doyle's rare questions. Essentially,

78
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:07,760
Speaker 2: what they did was hold up the proceedings as they

79
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:11,120
Speaker 2: asked questions in maldi, which of course they're entitled to do,

80
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 2: but it was something of a struggle to get an answer.

81
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:17,359
Speaker 1: Here they are kate I Feifer, card or Ia ke.

82
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:23,680
Speaker 4: Ucker, manna E t t or way tongy mean hutunga

83
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 4: a ma to dunga manga a kunam maudis to speak.

84
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:32,200
Speaker 3: I'm not getting any translation through this air piece.

85
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:35,240
Speaker 2: That's been a problem all week, and I've got this.

86
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,040
Speaker 2: I don't know whether there was a problem for the

87
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 2: bewildered translator, or whether it was indeed a technical problem,

88
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 2: but anyway we can hear more from them. That's Doyle

89
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:50,520
Speaker 2: when they delivered their valedictory in about an hour's time.

90
00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:54,599
Speaker 2: See how correct I was hither in the pronouns which

91
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 2: from here on and won't be such a problem with

92
00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 2: him gone.

93
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:03,159
